bbe@Matthew:1:18 @Now the birth of Jesus Christ was in this way: when his mother Mary was going to be married to Joseph, before they came together the discovery was made that she was with child by the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Matthew:1:20 @But when he was giving thought to these things, an angel of the Lord came to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, son of David, have no fear of taking Mary as your wife; because that which is in her body is of the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Matthew:1:23 @See, the virgin will be with child, and will give birth to a son, and they will give him the name Immanuel, that is, God with us.

bbe@Matthew:1:25 @And he had no connection with her till she had given birth to a son; and he gave him the name Jesus.

bbe@Matthew:2:3 @And when it came to the ears of Herod the king, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

bbe@Matthew:2:5 @And they said to him, In Beth-lehem of Judaea; for so it is said in the writings of the prophet,

bbe@Matthew:2:8 @And he sent them to Beth-lehem and said, Go and make certain where the young child is; and when you have seen him, let me have news of it, so that I may come and give him worship.

bbe@Matthew:2:9 @And after hearing the king, they went on their way; and the star which they saw in the east went before them, till it came to rest over the place where the young child was.

bbe@Matthew:2:11 @And they came into the house, and saw the young child with Mary, his mother; and falling down on their faces they gave him worship; and from their store they gave him offerings of gold, perfume, and spices.

bbe@Matthew:2:12 @And it was made clear to them by God in a dream that they were not to go back to Herod; so they went into their country by another way.

bbe@Matthew:2:16 @Then Herod, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, was very angry; and he sent out, and put to death all the male children in Beth-lehem and in all the parts round about it, from two years old and under, acting on the knowledge which he had got with care from the wise men.

bbe@Matthew:2:22 @But when it came to his ears that Archelaus was ruling over Judaea in the place of his father Herod, he was in fear of going there; and God having given him news of the danger in a dream, he went out of the way into the country parts of Galilee.

bbe@Matthew:3:4 @Now John was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather band about him; and his food was locusts and honey.

bbe@Matthew:3:10 @And even now the axe is put to the root of the trees; every tree then which does not give good fruit is cut down, and put into the fire

bbe@Matthew:3:11 @Truly, I give baptism with water to those of you whose hearts are changed; but he who comes after me is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to take up: he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit and with fire:

bbe@Matthew:3:12 @In whose hand is the instrument with which he will make clean his grain; he will put the good grain in his store, but the waste will be burned up in the fire which will never be put out.

bbe@Matthew:3:14 @But John would have kept him back, saying, It is I who have need of baptism from you, and do you come to me?

bbe@Matthew:3:15 @But Jesus made answer, saying to him, Let it be so now: because so it is right for us to make righteousness complete. Then he gave him baptism.

bbe@Matthew:3:16 @And Jesus, having been given baptism, straight away went up from the water; and, the heavens opening, he saw the Spirit of God coming down on him as a dove;

bbe@Matthew:3:17 @And a voice came out of heaven, saying, This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.

bbe@Matthew:4:1 @Then Jesus was sent by the Spirit into the waste land to be tested by the Evil One.

bbe@Matthew:4:2 @And after going without food for forty days and forty nights, he was in need of it.

bbe@Matthew:4:4 @But he made answer and said, It is in the Writings, Bread is not man's only need, but every word which comes out of the mouth of God.

bbe@Matthew:4:6 @If you are the Son of God, let yourself go down; for it is in the Writings, He will give his angels care over you; and, In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.

bbe@Matthew:4:7 @Jesus said to him, Again it is in the Writings, You may not put the Lord your God to the test.

bbe@Matthew:4:10 @Then said Jesus to him, Away, Satan: for it is in the Writings, Give worship to the Lord your God and be his servant only

bbe@Matthew:4:12 @Now when it came to his ears that John had been put in prison, he went away to Galilee;

bbe@Matthew:4:21 @And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, in the boat with their father, stitching up their nets; and he said, Come.

bbe@Matthew:4:23 @And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and making well those who were ill with any disease among the people.

bbe@Matthew:4:24 @And news of him went out through all Syria; and they took to him all who were ill with different diseases and pains, those having evil spirits and those who were off their heads, and those who had no power of moving. And he made them well.

bbe@Matthew:5:2 @And with these words he gave them teaching, saying,

bbe@Matthew:5:3 @Happy are the poor in spirit: for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.

bbe@Matthew:5:5 @Happy are the gentle: for the earth will be their heritage.

bbe@Matthew:5:13 @You are the salt of the earth; but if its taste goes from the salt, how will you make it salt again? it is then good for nothing but to be put out and crushed under foot by men.

bbe@Matthew:5:15 @And a burning light is not put under a vessel, but on its table; so that its rays may be shining on all who are in the house.

bbe@Matthew:5:21 @You have knowledge that it was said in old times, You may not put to death; and, Whoever puts to death will be in danger of being judged:

bbe@Matthew:5:22 @But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be in danger of being judged; and he who says to his brother, Raca, will be in danger from the Sanhedrin; and whoever says, You foolish one, will be in danger of the hell of fire.

bbe@Matthew:5:23 @If then you are making an offering at the altar and there it comes to your mind that your brother has something against you,

bbe@Matthew:5:24 @While your offering is still before the altar, first go and make peace with your brother, then come and make your offering.

bbe@Matthew:5:25 @Come to an agreement quickly with him who has a cause against you at law, while you are with him on the way, for fear that he may give you up to the judge and the judge may give you to the police and you may be put into prison.

bbe@Matthew:5:27 @You have knowledge that it was said, You may not have connection with another man's wife:

bbe@Matthew:5:28 @But I say to you that everyone whose eyes are turned on a woman with desire has had connection with her in his heart.

bbe@Matthew:5:29 @And if your right eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out and put it away from you; because it is better to undergo the loss of one part, than for all your body to go into hell.

bbe@Matthew:5:30 @And if your right hand is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off and put it away from you; because it is better to undergo the loss of one part, than for all your body to go into hell.

bbe@Matthew:5:31 @Again, it was said, Whoever puts away his wife has to give her a statement in writing for this purpose:

bbe@Matthew:5:33 @Again, you have knowledge that it was said in old times, Do not take false oaths, but give effect to your oaths to the Lord:

bbe@Matthew:5:34 @But I say to you, Take no oaths at all: not by the heaven, because it is the seat of God;

bbe@Matthew:5:35 @Or by the earth, because it is the resting-place for his foot; or by Jerusalem, because it is the town of the great King.

bbe@Matthew:5:36 @You may not take an oath by your head, because you are not able to make one hair white or black.

bbe@Matthew:5:38 @You have knowledge that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

bbe@Matthew:5:40 @And if any man goes to law with you and takes away your coat, do not keep back your robe from him.

bbe@Matthew:5:41 @And whoever makes you go one mile, go with him two.

bbe@Matthew:5:42 @Give to him who comes with a request, and keep not your property from him who would for a time make use of it.

bbe@Matthew:5:43 @You have knowledge that it was said, Have love for your neighbour, and hate for him who is against you:

bbe@Matthew:5:46 @For if you have love for those who have love for you, what credit is it to you? do not the tax-farmers the same?

bbe@Matthew:6:2 @When then you give money to the poor, do not make a noise about it, as the false-hearted men do in the Synagogues and in the streets, so that they may have glory from men. Truly, I say to you, They have their reward.

bbe@Matthew:6:16 @And when you go without food, be not sad-faced as the false-hearted are. For they go about with changed looks, so that men may see that they are going without food. Truly I say to you, They have their reward.

bbe@Matthew:6:17 @But when you go without food, put oil on your head and make your face clean;

bbe@Matthew:6:18 @So that no one may see that you are going without food, but your Father in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, will give you your reward.

bbe@Matthew:6:19 @Make no store of wealth for yourselves on earth, where it may be turned to dust by worms and weather, and where thieves may come in by force and take it away.

bbe@Matthew:6:20 @But make a store for yourselves in heaven, where it will not be turned to dust and where thieves do not come in to take it away:

bbe@Matthew:6:23 @But if your eye is evil, all your body will be dark. If then the light which is in you is dark, how dark it will be!

bbe@Matthew:6:25 @So I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about food or drink, or about clothing for your body. Is not life more than food, and the body more than its clothing?

bbe@Matthew:6:26 @See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in store-houses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?

bbe@Matthew:6:27 @And which of you by taking thought is able to make himself a cubit taller?

bbe@Matthew:6:30 @But if God gives such clothing to the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is put into the oven, will he not much more give you clothing, O you of little faith?

bbe@Matthew:6:31 @Then do not be full of care, saying, What are we to have for food or drink? or, With what may we be clothed?

bbe@Matthew:6:33 @But let your first care be for his kingdom and his righteousness; and all these other things will be given to you in addition.

bbe@Matthew:6:34 @Then have no care for tomorrow: tomorrow will take care of itself. Take the trouble of the day as it comes.

bbe@Matthew:7:2 @For as you have been judging, so you will be judged, and with your measure will it be measured to you.

bbe@Matthew:7:3 @And why do you take note of the grain of dust in your brother's eye, but take no note of the bit of wood which is in your eye?

bbe@Matthew:7:4 @Or how will you say to your brother, Let me take out the grain of dust from your eye, when you yourself have a bit of wood in your eye?

bbe@Matthew:7:5 @You false one, first take out the bit of wood from your eye, then will you see clearly to take out the grain of dust from your brother's eye.

bbe@Matthew:7:7 @Make a request, and it will be answered; what you are searching for you will get; give the sign, and the door will be open to you:

bbe@Matthew:7:8 @Because to everyone who makes a request, it will be given; and he who is searching will get his desire, and to him who gives the sign, the door will be open.

bbe@Matthew:7:13 @Go in by the narrow door; for wide is the door and open is the way which goes to destruction, and great numbers go in by it.

bbe@Matthew:7:14 @For narrow is the door and hard the road to life, and only a small number make discovery of it.

bbe@Matthew:7:16 @By their fruits you will get knowledge of them

bbe@Matthew:7:17 @Even so, every good tree gives good fruit; but the bad tree gives evil fruit.

bbe@Matthew:7:18 @It is not possible for a good tree to give bad fruit, and a bad tree will not give good fruit.

bbe@Matthew:7:19 @Every tree which does not give good fruit is cut down and put in the fire.

bbe@Matthew:7:20 @So by their fruits you will get knowledge of them.

bbe@Matthew:7:22 @A great number will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, were we not prophets in your name, and did we not by your name send out evil spirits, and by your name do works of power?

bbe@Matthew:7:25 @And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house, but it was not moved; because it was based on the rock.

bbe@Matthew:7:27 @And the rain came down and there was a rush of waters and the winds were driving against that house; and it came down and great was its fall.

bbe@Matthew:7:28 @And it came about, when Jesus had come to the end of these words, that the people were surprised at his teaching,

bbe@Matthew:7:29 @for he was teaching as one having authority, and not as their scribes.

bbe@Matthew:8:2 @And a leper came and gave him worship, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean.

bbe@Matthew:8:3 @And he put his hand on him, saying, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away he was made clean.

bbe@Matthew:8:4 @And Jesus said to him, See that you say nothing about this to anyone; but go and let the priest see you and make the offering which was ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.

bbe@Matthew:8:5 @And when Jesus was come into Capernaum, a certain captain came to him with a request,

bbe@Matthew:8:6 @Saying, Lord, my servant is ill in bed at the house, with no power in his body, and in great pain.

bbe@Matthew:8:9 @Because I myself am a man under authority, having under me fighting men; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.

bbe@Matthew:8:10 @And when these words came to the ears of Jesus he was surprised, and said to those who came after him, Truly I say to you, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.

bbe@Matthew:8:11 @And I say to you that numbers will come from the east and the west, and will take their seats with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven:

bbe@Matthew:8:13 @And Jesus said to the captain, Go in peace; as your faith is, so let it be done to you. And the servant was made well in that hour.

bbe@Matthew:8:16 @And in the evening, they took to him a number of people who had evil spirits; and he sent the spirits out of them with a word, and made well all who were ill;

bbe@Matthew:8:24 @And there came up a great storm in the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves: but he was sleeping.

bbe@Matthew:8:26 @And he said to them, Why are you full of fear, O you of little faith? Then he got up and gave orders to the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.

bbe@Matthew:8:28 @And when he had come to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, there came out to him from the place of the dead, two who had evil spirits, so violent that no man was able to go that way.

bbe@Matthew:8:29 @And they gave a loud cry, saying, What have we to do with you, you Son of God? Have you come here to give us punishment before the time?

bbe@Matthew:8:31 @And the evil spirits made strong prayers to him, saying, If you send us out, let us go into the herd of pigs.

bbe@Matthew:8:33 @And their keepers went in flight to the town and gave an account of everything, and of the men who had the evil spirits.

bbe@Matthew:9:2 @And they took to him a man stretched on a bed who had no power of moving; and Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the man who was ill, Son, take heart; you have forgiveness for your sins.

bbe@Matthew:9:6 @But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (then said he to the man who was ill,) Get up, and take up your bed, and go to your house.

bbe@Matthew:9:8 @But when the people saw it they were full of fear, and gave glory to God who had given such authority to men.

bbe@Matthew:9:10 @And it came about, when he was in the house taking food, that a number of tax-farmers and sinners came and took their places with Jesus and his disciples.

bbe@Matthew:9:11 @And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why does your Master take food with tax-farmers and sinners?

bbe@Matthew:9:14 @Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees frequently go without food, but your disciples do not?

bbe@Matthew:9:15 @And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of the newly-married man be sad as long as he is with them? But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then will they go without food.

bbe@Matthew:9:16 @And no man puts a bit of new cloth on an old coat, for by pulling away from the old, it makes a worse hole.

bbe@Matthew:9:22 @But Jesus, turning and seeing her, said, Daughter, take heart; your faith has made you well. And the woman was made well from that hour.

bbe@Matthew:9:23 @And when Jesus came into the ruler's house and saw the players with their instruments and the people making a noise,

bbe@Matthew:9:26 @And the news of it went out into all that land.

bbe@Matthew:9:28 @And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, Have you faith that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.

bbe@Matthew:9:29 @Then he put his hand on their eyes, saying, As your faith is, let it be done to you.

bbe@Matthew:9:30 @And their eyes were made open. And Jesus said to them sharply, Let no man have knowledge of it.

bbe@Matthew:9:32 @And while they were going away, there came to him a man without the power of talking, and with an evil spirit.

bbe@Matthew:9:33 @And when the evil spirit had been sent out, the man had the power of talking: and they were all surprised, saying, Such a thing has never been seen in Israel.

bbe@Matthew:9:34 @But the Pharisees said, By the ruler of evil spirits, he sends evil spirits out of men.

bbe@Matthew:9:36 @But when he saw all the people he was moved with pity for them, because they were troubled and wandering like sheep without a keeper.

bbe@Matthew:9:37 @Then he said to his disciples, There is much grain but not enough men to get it in.

bbe@Matthew:10:1 @And he got together his twelve disciples and gave them the power of driving out unclean spirits, and of making well all sorts of disease and pain.

bbe@Matthew:10:8 @Make well those who are ill, give life to the dead, make lepers clean, send evil spirits out of men; freely it has been given to you, freely give.

bbe@Matthew:10:13 @And if the house is good enough, let your peace come on it: but if not, let your peace come back to you.

bbe@Matthew:10:14 @And whoever will not take you in, or give ear to your words, when you go out from that house or that town, put off its dust from your feet.

bbe@Matthew:10:15 @Truly I say to you, It will be better for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of God's judging than for that town.

bbe@Matthew:10:18 @And you will come before rulers and kings because of me, for a witness to them and to the Gentiles.

bbe@Matthew:10:19 @But when you are given up into their hands, do not be troubled about what to say or how to say it: for in that hour what you are to say will be given to you;

bbe@Matthew:10:20 @Because it is not you who say the words, but the Spirit of your Father in you.

bbe@Matthew:10:25 @It is enough for the disciple that he may be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have given the name Beelzebub to the master of the house, how much more to those of his house!

bbe@Matthew:10:29 @Are not sparrows two a farthing? and not one of them comes to an end without your Father:

bbe@Matthew:10:32 @To everyone, then, who gives witness to me before men, I will give witness before my Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:10:39 @He who has the desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, and he who gives up his life because of me will have it given back to him.

bbe@Matthew:10:42 @And whoever gives to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he will not go without his reward.

bbe@Matthew:11:1 @And it came about that when Jesus had come to the end of giving these orders to his twelve disciples, he went away from there, teaching and preaching in their towns.

bbe@Matthew:11:3 @To say to him, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

bbe@Matthew:11:5 @The blind see; those who were not able to, are walking; lepers are made clean; those who were without hearing, now have their ears open; the dead come to life again, and the poor have the good news given to them.

bbe@Matthew:11:10 @This is he of whom it has been said, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way before you.

bbe@Matthew:11:12 @And from the days of John the Baptist till now, the kingdom of heaven is forcing its way in, and men of force take it.

bbe@Matthew:11:14 @And if you are able to see it, this is Elijah who was to come.

bbe@Matthew:11:16 @But what comparison may I make of this generation? It is like children seated in the market-places, crying out to one another,

bbe@Matthew:11:18 @For John came, taking no food or drink, and they say, He has an evil spirit.

bbe@Matthew:11:22 @But I say to you, It will be better for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judging, than for you.

bbe@Matthew:11:23 @And you, Capernaum, were you not to be lifted up to heaven? you will go down into hell: for if the works of power which were done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have been here to this day.

bbe@Matthew:11:24 @But I say to you that it will be better for the land of Sodom in the day of judging, than for you.

bbe@Matthew:11:25 @At that time Jesus made answer and said, I give praise to you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have kept these things secret from the wise and the men of learning, and have made them clear to little children.

bbe@Matthew:11:26 @Yes, Father, for so it was pleasing in your eyes.

bbe@Matthew:11:27 @All things have been given to me by my Father; and no one has knowledge of the Son, but the Father; and no one has knowledge of the Father, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will make it clear.

bbe@Matthew:11:28 @Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest.

bbe@Matthew:11:29 @Take my yoke on you and become like me, for I am gentle and without pride, and you will have rest for your souls;

bbe@Matthew:12:2 @But the Pharisees, when they saw it, said to him, See, your disciples do that which it is not right to do on the Sabbath.

bbe@Matthew:12:3 @But he said to them, Have you no knowledge of what David did when he had need of food, and those who were with him?

bbe@Matthew:12:4 @How he went into the house of God and took for food the holy bread which it was not right for him or for those who were with him to take, but only for the priests?

bbe@Matthew:12:5 @Or is it not said in the law, how the Sabbath is broken by the priests in the Temple and they do no wrong?

bbe@Matthew:12:10 @And there was a man with a dead hand. And they put a question to him, saying, Is it right to make a man well on the Sabbath day? so that they might have something against him.

bbe@Matthew:12:11 @And he said to them, Which of you, having a sheep, if it gets into a hole on the Sabbath day, will not put out a helping hand and get it back?

bbe@Matthew:12:12 @Of how much more value is a man than a sheep! For this reason it is right to do good on the Sabbath day.

bbe@Matthew:12:18 @See my servant, the man of my selection, my loved one in whom my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit on him, and he will make my decision clear to the Gentiles.

bbe@Matthew:12:19 @His coming will not be with fighting or loud cries; and his voice will not be lifted up in the streets.

bbe@Matthew:12:22 @Then they took to him one with an evil spirit, who was blind and had no power of talking: and he made him well so that he had the power of talking and seeing.

bbe@Matthew:12:24 @But the Pharisees, hearing of it, said, This man only sends evil spirits out of men by Beelzebub, the ruler of evil spirits.

bbe@Matthew:12:25 @And having knowledge of their thoughts he said to them, Every kingdom having division in itself is made waste, and every town or house having division in itself will come to destruction.

bbe@Matthew:12:27 @And if I by Beelzebub send evil spirits out of men, by whom do your sons send them out? So let them be your judges.

bbe@Matthew:12:28 @But if I by the Spirit of God send out evil spirits, then is the kingdom of God come on you.

bbe@Matthew:12:30 @Whoever is not with me is against me; and he who does not take part with me in getting people together, is driving them away.

bbe@Matthew:12:31 @So I say to you, Every sin and every evil word against God will have forgiveness; but for evil words against the Spirit there will be no forgiveness.

bbe@Matthew:12:32 @And whoever says a word against the Son of man, will have forgiveness; but whoever says a word against the Holy Spirit, will not have forgiveness in this life or in that which is to come.

bbe@Matthew:12:33 @Make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad; for by its fruit you will get knowledge of the tree.

bbe@Matthew:12:39 @But he, answering, said to them, An evil and false generation is looking for a sign; and no sign will be given to it but the sign of the prophet Jonah:

bbe@Matthew:12:43 @But the unclean spirit, when he is gone out of a man, goes through dry places looking for rest, and getting it not.

bbe@Matthew:12:44 @Then he says, I will go back into my house from which I came out; and when he comes, he sees that there is no one in it, but that it has been made fair and clean.

bbe@Matthew:12:45 @Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits worse than himself, and they go in and make it their living-place: and the last condition of that man is worse than the first. Even so will it be with this evil generation.

bbe@Matthew:12:46 @While he was still talking to the people, his mother and his brothers came, desiring to have talk with him.

bbe@Matthew:12:47 @And one said to him, See, your mother and your brothers are outside, desiring to have talk with you.

bbe@Matthew:13:2 @And great numbers of people came together to him, so that he got into a boat; and the people took up their position by the sea.

bbe@Matthew:13:5 @And some of the seed went among the stones, where it had not much earth, and straight away it came up because the earth was not deep:

bbe@Matthew:13:6 @And when the sun was high, it was burned; and because it had no root it became dry and dead.

bbe@Matthew:13:8 @And some, falling on good earth, gave fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.

bbe@Matthew:13:11 @And he said to them in answer, To you is given the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

bbe@Matthew:13:13 @For this reason I put things into the form of stories; because they see without seeing, and give ear without hearing, and the sense is not clear to them.

bbe@Matthew:13:15 @For the heart of this people has become fat and their ears are slow in hearing and their eyes are shut; for fear that they might see with their eyes and give hearing with their ears and become wise in their hearts and be turned again to me, so that I might make them well

bbe@Matthew:13:17 @For truly, I say to you that prophets and upright men had a desire to see the things which you see, and saw them not; and to have knowledge of the words which have come to your ears, and they had it not.

bbe@Matthew:13:19 @When the word of the kingdom comes to anyone, and the sense of it is not clear to him, then the Evil One comes, and quickly takes away that which was put in his heart. He is the seed dropped by the wayside.

bbe@Matthew:13:20 @And that which went on the stones, this is he who, hearing the word, straight away takes it with joy;

bbe@Matthew:13:22 @And that which was dropped among the thorns, this is he who has the word; and the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, put a stop to the growth of the word and it gives no fruit.

bbe@Matthew:13:23 @And the seed which was put in good earth, this is he who gives ear to the word, and gets the sense of it; who gives fruit, some a hundred, some sixty, some thirty times as much.

bbe@Matthew:13:26 @But when the green stem came up and gave fruit, the evil plants were seen at the same time.

bbe@Matthew:13:27 @And the servants of the master of the house came and said to him, Sir, did you not put good seed in your field? how then has it evil plants?

bbe@Matthew:13:28 @And he said, Someone has done this in hate. And the servants say to him, Is it your pleasure that we go and take them up?

bbe@Matthew:13:29 @But he says, No, for fear that by chance while you take up the evil plants, you may be rooting up the grain with them.

bbe@Matthew:13:32 @Which is smaller than all seeds; but when it has come up it is greater than the plants, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven come and make their resting-places in its branches.

bbe@Matthew:13:33 @Another story he gave to them: The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took, and put in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.

bbe@Matthew:13:34 @All these things Jesus said to the people in the form of stories; and without a story he said nothing to them:

bbe@Matthew:13:35 @That it might come true which was said by the prophet, Opening my mouth, I will give out stories; I will give knowledge of things kept secret from before all time.

bbe@Matthew:13:39 @And he who put them in the earth is Satan; and the getting in of the grain is the end of the world; and those who get it in are the angels.

bbe@Matthew:13:40 @As then the evil plants are got together and burned with fire, so will it be in the end of the world.

bbe@Matthew:13:46 @And having come across one jewel of great price, he went and gave all he had in exchange for it.

bbe@Matthew:13:48 @When it was full, they took it up on the sands; and seated there they put the good into vessels, but the bad they put away.

bbe@Matthew:13:49 @So will it be in the end of the world: the angels will come and take out the bad from the good,

bbe@Matthew:13:56 @And his sisters, are they not all with us? from where, then, has he all these things?

bbe@Matthew:13:57 @And they were bitter against him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour but in his country and among his family.

bbe@Matthew:13:58 @And the works of power which he did there were small in number because they had no faith.

bbe@Matthew:14:4 @Because John had said to him, It is not right for you to have her.

bbe@Matthew:14:6 @But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias was dancing before them, and Herod was pleased with her.

bbe@Matthew:14:7 @So he gave her his word with an oath to let her have whatever she might make request for.

bbe@Matthew:14:9 @And the king was sad; but because of his oaths and because of his guests, he gave the order for it to be given to her;

bbe@Matthew:14:11 @And his head was put on a plate and given to the girl; and she took it to her mother.

bbe@Matthew:14:12 @And his disciples came, and took up his body and put it in the earth; and they went and gave Jesus news of what had taken place.

bbe@Matthew:14:13 @Now when it came to the ears of Jesus, he went away from there in a boat, to a waste place by himself: and the people hearing of it, went after him on foot from the towns.

bbe@Matthew:14:14 @And he came out and saw a great number of people and he had pity on them, and made well those of them who were ill.

bbe@Matthew:14:19 @And he gave orders for the people to be seated on the grass; and he took the five cakes of bread and the two fishes and, looking up to heaven, he said words of blessing, and made division of the food, and gave it to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.

bbe@Matthew:14:20 @And they all took of the food and had enough: and they took up twelve baskets full of broken bits which were not used.

bbe@Matthew:14:21 @And those who had food were about five thousand men, in addition to women and children.

bbe@Matthew:14:26 @And when they saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they gave cries of fear.

bbe@Matthew:14:27 @But straight away Jesus said to them, Take heart; it is I, have no fear.

bbe@Matthew:14:28 @And Peter, answering, said to him, Lord, if it is you, give me the order to come to you on the water.

bbe@Matthew:14:31 @And straight away Jesus put out his hand and took a grip of him, and said to him, O man of little faith, why were you in doubt?

bbe@Matthew:14:36 @With the request that they might only put their hands on the edge of his robe: and all those who did so were made well.

bbe@Matthew:15:2 @Why do your disciples go against the teaching of the fathers? for they take food with unwashed hands.

bbe@Matthew:15:5 @But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is given to God;

bbe@Matthew:15:6 @There is no need for him to give honour to his father. And you have made the word of God without effect because of your teaching.

bbe@Matthew:15:8 @These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

bbe@Matthew:15:16 @And he said, Are you, like them, still without wisdom?

bbe@Matthew:15:19 @For out of the heart come evil thoughts, the taking of life, broken faith between the married, unclean desires of the flesh, taking of property, false witness, bitter words:

bbe@Matthew:15:20 @These are the things which make a man unclean; but to take food with unwashed hands does not make a man unclean.

bbe@Matthew:15:22 @And a woman of Canaan came out from those parts, crying and saying, Have pity on me, O Lord, Son of David; my daughter is greatly troubled with an unclean spirit.

bbe@Matthew:15:26 @And he made answer and said, It is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.

bbe@Matthew:15:27 @But she said, Yes, Lord: but even the dogs take the bits from under their masters' table.

bbe@Matthew:15:28 @Then Jesus, answering, said to her, O woman, great is your faith: let your desire be done. And her daughter was made well from that hour.

bbe@Matthew:15:30 @And there came to him great numbers of people having with them those who were broken in body, or blind, or without voice, or wounded, or ill in any way, and a number of others; they put them down at his feet and he made them well:

bbe@Matthew:15:32 @And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.

bbe@Matthew:15:36 @And he took the seven cakes of bread and the fishes; and having given praise, he gave the broken bread to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.

bbe@Matthew:15:37 @And they all took food, and had enough; and they took up of the broken bits, seven baskets full.

bbe@Matthew:15:38 @And there were four thousand men who took food, together with women and children.

bbe@Matthew:16:4 @An evil and false generation is searching after a sign; and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah. And he went away from them.

bbe@Matthew:16:6 @And Jesus said to them, Take care to have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

bbe@Matthew:16:8 @And Jesus, seeing it, said, O you of little faith, why are you reasoning among yourselves, because you have no bread?

bbe@Matthew:16:11 @How is it that you do not see that I was not talking to you about bread, but about keeping away from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?

bbe@Matthew:16:12 @Then they saw that it was not the leaven of bread which he had in mind, but the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

bbe@Matthew:16:18 @And I say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock will my church be based, and the doors of hell will not overcome it.

bbe@Matthew:16:21 @From that time Jesus went on to make clear to his disciples how he would have to go up to Jerusalem, and undergo much at the hands of those in authority and the chief priests and scribes, and be put to death, and the third day come again from the dead

bbe@Matthew:16:22 @And Peter, protesting, said to him, Be it far from you, Lord; it is impossible that this will come about.

bbe@Matthew:16:25 @Because whoever has a desire to keep his life safe will have it taken from him; but whoever gives up his life because of me, will have it given back to him.

bbe@Matthew:16:26 @For what profit has a man, if he gets all the world with the loss of his life? or what will a man give in exchange for his life?

bbe@Matthew:16:27 @For the Son of man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he will give to every man the reward of his works.

bbe@Matthew:17:1 @And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, his brother, and makes them go up with him into a high mountain by themselves.

bbe@Matthew:17:2 @And he was changed in form before them; and his face was shining like the sun, and his clothing became white as light.

bbe@Matthew:17:3 @And Moses and Elijah came before their eyes, talking with him.

bbe@Matthew:17:4 @And Peter made answer and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if you will let me, I will make here three tents, one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

bbe@Matthew:17:5 @While he was still talking, a bright cloud came over them: and a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased; give ear to him.

bbe@Matthew:17:17 @And Jesus, answering, said, O false and foolish generation, how long will I be with you? how long will I put up with you? let him come here to me.

bbe@Matthew:17:18 @And Jesus gave orders to the unclean spirit, and it went out of him: and the boy was made well from that hour.

bbe@Matthew:17:19 @Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, Why were we not able to send it out?

bbe@Matthew:17:20 @And he says to them, Because of your little faith: for truly I say to you, If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, Be moved from this place to that; and it will be moved; and nothing will be impossible to you.

bbe@Matthew:17:27 @But, so that we may not be a cause of trouble to them, go to the sea, and let down a hook, and take the first fish which comes up; and in his mouth you will see a bit of money: take that, and give it to them for me and you.

bbe@Matthew:18:2 @And he took a little child, and put him in the middle of them,

bbe@Matthew:18:3 @And said, Truly, I say to you, If you do not have a change of heart and become like little children, you will not go into the kingdom of heaven.

bbe@Matthew:18:4 @Whoever, then, will make himself as low as this little child, the same is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

bbe@Matthew:18:5 @And whoever gives honour to one such little child in my name, gives honour to me:

bbe@Matthew:18:6 @But whoever is a cause of trouble to one of these little ones who have faith in me, it would be better for him to have a great stone fixed to his neck, and to come to his end in the deep sea.

bbe@Matthew:18:7 @A curse is on the earth because of trouble! for it is necessary for trouble to come; but unhappy is that man through whom the trouble comes.

bbe@Matthew:18:8 @And if your hand or your foot is a cause of trouble, let it be cut off and put it away from you: it is better for you to go into life with the loss of a hand or a foot than, having two hands or two feet, to go into the eternal fire.

bbe@Matthew:18:9 @And if your eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out, and put it away from you: it is better for you to go into life with one eye than, having two eyes, to go into the hell of fire.

bbe@Matthew:18:10 @Let it not seem to you that one of these little ones is of no value; for I say to you that in heaven their angels see at all times the face of my Father in heaven

bbe@Matthew:18:13 @And if he comes across it, truly I say to you, he has more joy over it than over the ninety-nine which have not gone out of the way.

bbe@Matthew:18:14 @Even so it is not the pleasure of your Father in heaven for one of these little ones to come to destruction.

bbe@Matthew:18:16 @But if he will not give ear to you, take with you one or two more, that by the lips of two or three witnesses every word may be made certain.

bbe@Matthew:18:17 @And if he will not give ear to them, let it come to the hearing of the church: and if he will not give ear to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax-farmer.

bbe@Matthew:18:19 @Again, I say to you, that if two of you are in agreement on earth about anything for which they will make a request, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.

bbe@Matthew:18:23 @For this reason the kingdom of heaven is like a king, who went over his accounts with his servants.

bbe@Matthew:18:27 @And the lord of that servant, being moved with pity, let him go, and made him free of the debt.

bbe@Matthew:18:33 @Was it not right for you to have mercy on the other servant, even as I had mercy on you?

bbe@Matthew:19:1 @And it came about that after saying these words, Jesus went away from Galilee, and came into the parts of Judaea on the other side of Jordan.

bbe@Matthew:19:3 @And certain Pharisees came to him, testing him, and saying, Is it right for a man to put away his wife for every cause?

bbe@Matthew:19:4 @And he said in answer, Have you not seen in the Writings, that he who made them at the first made them male and female, and said,

bbe@Matthew:19:7 @They say to him, Why then did Moses give orders that a husband might give her a statement in writing and be free from her?

bbe@Matthew:19:8 @He says to them, Moses, because of your hard hearts, let you put away your wives: but it has not been so from the first.

bbe@Matthew:19:10 @The disciples say to him, If this is the position of a man in relation to his wife, it is better not to be married

bbe@Matthew:19:11 @But he said to them, Not all men are able to take in this saying, but only those to whom it is given.

bbe@Matthew:19:12 @For there are men who, from birth, were without sex: and there are some who were made so by men: and there are others who have made themselves so for the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to take it, let him take it.

bbe@Matthew:19:13 @Then some people took little children to him, so that he might put his hands on them in blessing: and the disciples said sharp words to them.

bbe@Matthew:19:14 @But Jesus said, Let the little ones come to me, and do not keep them away: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.

bbe@Matthew:19:18 @He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Do not put anyone to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness,

bbe@Matthew:19:21 @Jesus said to him, If you have a desire to be complete, go, get money for your property, and give it to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven: and come after me.

bbe@Matthew:19:23 @And Jesus said to his disciples, Truly I say to you, It is hard for a man with much money to go into the kingdom of heaven.

bbe@Matthew:19:24 @And again I say to you, It is simpler for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a man with much money to go into the kingdom of God.

bbe@Matthew:19:26 @And Jesus, looking at them, said, With men this is not possible; but with God all things are possible.

bbe@Matthew:20:2 @And when he had made an agreement with the workmen for a penny a day, he sent them into his vine-garden.

bbe@Matthew:20:4 @And he said to them, Go into the vine-garden with the others, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went to work.

bbe@Matthew:20:7 @They say to him, Because no man has given us work. He says to them, Go in with the rest, into the vine-garden.

bbe@Matthew:20:11 @And when they got it, they made a protest against the master of the house,

bbe@Matthew:20:13 @But he in answer said to one of them, Friend, I do you no wrong: did you not make an agreement with me for a penny?

bbe@Matthew:20:14 @Take what is yours, and go away; it is my pleasure to give to this last, even as to you.

bbe@Matthew:20:20 @Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, giving him worship and making a request of him.

bbe@Matthew:20:23 @They say to him, We are able. He says to them, Truly, you will take of my cup: but to be seated at my right hand and at my left is not for me to give, but it is for those for whom my Father has made it ready.

bbe@Matthew:20:24 @And when it came to the ears of the ten, they were angry with the two brothers.

bbe@Matthew:20:25 @But Jesus said to them, You see that the rulers of the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.

bbe@Matthew:20:26 @Let it not be so among you: but if anyone has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant;

bbe@Matthew:20:34 @And Jesus, being moved with pity, put his fingers on their eyes: and straight away they were able to see, and went after him.

bbe@Matthew:21:2 @Saying to them, Go into the little town in front of you, and straight away you will see an ass with a cord round her neck, and a young one with her; let them loose and come with them to me.

bbe@Matthew:21:7 @And got the ass and the young one, and put their clothing on them, and he took his seat on it.

bbe@Matthew:21:13 @And he said to them, It is in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer, but you are making it a hole of thieves.

bbe@Matthew:21:16 @Have you any idea what these are saying? And Jesus said to them, Yes: have you not seen in the Writings, From the lips of children and babies at the breast you have made your praise complete?

bbe@Matthew:21:19 @And seeing a fig-tree by the wayside, he came to it, and saw nothing on it but leaves only; and he said to it, Let there be no fruit from you from this time forward for ever. And straight away the fig-tree became dry and dead.

bbe@Matthew:21:20 @And when the disciples saw it they were surprised, saying, How did the fig-tree become dry in so short a time?

bbe@Matthew:21:21 @And Jesus in answer said to them, Truly I say to you, If you have faith, without doubting, not only may you do what has been done to the fig-tree, but even if you say to this mountain, Be taken up and put into the sea, it will be done.

bbe@Matthew:21:22 @And all things, whatever you make request for in prayer, having faith, you will get.

bbe@Matthew:21:23 @And when he had come into the Temple, the chief priests and those in authority over the people came to him while he was teaching, and said, By what authority do you do these things? and who gave you this authority?

bbe@Matthew:21:24 @And Jesus said to them in answer, I will put one question to you, and if you give me the answer, I will say by what authority I do these things.

bbe@Matthew:21:25 @The baptism of John, where did it come from? from heaven or from men? And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did you not have faith in him?

bbe@Matthew:21:27 @And they made answer and said, We have no idea. Then he said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.

bbe@Matthew:21:28 @But how does it seem to you? A man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go and do work today in the vine-garden.

bbe@Matthew:21:32 @For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you had no faith in him, but the tax-farmers and the loose women had faith in him: and you, when you saw it, did not even have regret for your sins, so as to have faith in him.

bbe@Matthew:21:33 @Give ear to another story. A master of a house made a vine garden, and put a wall round it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and made a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.

bbe@Matthew:21:34 @And when the time for the fruit came near, he sent his servants to the workmen, to get the fruit.

bbe@Matthew:21:38 @But when the workmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death and take his heritage.

bbe@Matthew:21:41 @They say to him, He will put those cruel men to a cruel death, and will let out the vine-garden to other workmen, who will give him the fruit when it is ready.

bbe@Matthew:21:42 @Jesus says to them, Did you never see in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has been made the chief stone of the building: this was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes?

bbe@Matthew:21:43 @For this reason I say to you, The kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and will be given to a nation producing the fruits of it.

bbe@Matthew:21:44 @Any man falling on this stone will be broken, but he on whom it comes down will be crushed to dust.

bbe@Matthew:22:4 @Again he sent out other servants, with orders to say to the guests, See, I have made ready my feast: my oxen and my fat beasts have been put to death, and all things are ready: come to the feast.

bbe@Matthew:22:7 @But the king was angry; and he sent his armies, and those who had put his servants to death he gave to destruction, burning down their town with fire.

bbe@Matthew:22:16 @And they sent to him their disciples, with the Herodians, saying, Master, we see that you are true, and that you are teaching the true way of God, and have no fear of anyone, because you have no respect for a man's position

bbe@Matthew:22:17 @Give us, then, your opinion of this: Is it right to give tax to Caesar, or not?

bbe@Matthew:22:20 @And he said to them, Whose is this image and name on it?

bbe@Matthew:22:22 @And hearing it, they were full of wonder, and went away from him.

bbe@Matthew:22:29 @But Jesus said to them in answer, You are in error, not having knowledge of the Writings, or of the power of God.

bbe@Matthew:22:31 @But about the dead coming back to life, have you no knowledge of what was said to you by God in the Writings:

bbe@Matthew:22:33 @And the people hearing it were surprised at his teaching.

bbe@Matthew:22:37 @And he said to him, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.

bbe@Matthew:22:39 @And a second like it is this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

bbe@Matthew:22:43 @He says to them, How then does David in the Spirit give him the name of Lord, saying,

bbe@Matthew:23:2 @The scribes and the Pharisees have the authority of Moses;

bbe@Matthew:23:16 @A curse is on you, blind guides, who say, Whoever takes an oath by the Temple, it is nothing; but whoever takes an oath by the gold of the Temple, he is responsible.

bbe@Matthew:23:18 @And, Whoever takes an oath by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever takes an oath by the offering which is on it, he is responsible

bbe@Matthew:23:20 @He, then, who takes an oath by the altar, takes it by the altar and by all things on it.

bbe@Matthew:23:21 @And he who takes an oath by the Temple, takes it by the Temple and by him whose house it is.

bbe@Matthew:23:22 @And he who takes an oath by heaven, takes it by the seat of God, and by him who is seated on it.

bbe@Matthew:23:23 @A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you make men give a tenth of all sorts of sweet-smelling plants, but you give no thought to the more important things of the law, righteousness, and mercy, and faith; but it is right for you to do these, and not to let the others be undone.

bbe@Matthew:23:27 @A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you are like the resting-places of the dead, which are made white, and seem beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and of all unclean things.

bbe@Matthew:23:30 @If we had been living in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in the blood of the prophets.

bbe@Matthew:23:31 @So that you are witnesses against yourselves that you are the sons of those who put the prophets to death.

bbe@Matthew:24:6 @And news will come to you of wars and talk of wars: do not be troubled, for these things have to be; but it is still not the end.

bbe@Matthew:24:7 @For nation will be moved against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and men will be without food, and the earth will be shaking in different places;

bbe@Matthew:24:14 @And this good news of the kingdom will be given through all the world for a witness to all nations; and then the end will come.

bbe@Matthew:24:19 @But it will be hard for women who are with child and for those with babies at the breast in those days.

bbe@Matthew:24:23 @Then if any man says to you, See, here is the Christ, or, Here; do not put faith in him;

bbe@Matthew:24:25 @See, I have made it clear to you before it comes about.

bbe@Matthew:24:26 @If, then, they say to you, See, he is in the waste land; go not out: See, he is in the inner rooms; put no faith in it.

bbe@Matthew:24:30 @And then the sign of the Son of man will be seen in heaven: and then all the nations of the earth will have sorrow, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

bbe@Matthew:24:31 @And he will send out his angels with a great sound of a horn, and they will get his saints together from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

bbe@Matthew:24:32 @Now take an example from the fig-tree: when her branch has become soft and puts out its leaves, you are certain that the summer is near;

bbe@Matthew:24:49 @And is cruel to the other servants, taking his pleasure with those who are overcome with wine;

bbe@Matthew:25:1 @Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins, the friends of the bride, who took their lights, and went out with the purpose of meeting the husband.

bbe@Matthew:25:3 @For the foolish, when they took their lights, took no oil with them.

bbe@Matthew:25:4 @But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lights.

bbe@Matthew:25:9 @But the wise made answer, saying, There may not be enough for us and you; it would be better for you to go to the traders and get oil for yourselves

bbe@Matthew:25:10 @And while they went to get oil, the master came; and those who were ready went in with him to the feast: and the door was shut.

bbe@Matthew:25:14 @For it is as when a man, about to take a journey, got his servants together, and gave them his property.

bbe@Matthew:25:16 @Straight away he who had been given the five talents went and did trade with them, and made five more.

bbe@Matthew:25:18 @But he who was given the one went away and put it in a hole in the earth, and kept his lord's money in a secret place.

bbe@Matthew:25:19 @Now after a long time the lord of those servants comes, and makes up his account with them.

bbe@Matthew:25:20 @And he who had the five talents came with his other five talents, saying, Lord, you gave into my care five talents: see, I have got five more.

bbe@Matthew:25:24 @And he who had had the one talent came and said, Lord, I had knowledge that you are a hard man, getting in grain where you have not put seed, and making profits for which you have done no work:

bbe@Matthew:25:26 @But his lord in answer said to him, You are a bad and unready servant; if you had knowledge that I get in grain where I did not put seed, and make profits for which I have done no work,

bbe@Matthew:25:27 @Why, then, did you not put my money in the bank, and at my coming I would have got back what is mine with interest?

bbe@Matthew:25:28 @Take away, then, his talent and give it to him who has the ten talents.

bbe@Matthew:25:30 @And put out the servant who is of no profit into the outer dark: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

bbe@Matthew:25:31 @But when the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then will he be seated in his glory:

bbe@Matthew:25:35 @For I was in need of food, and you gave it to me: I was in need of drink, and you gave it to me: I was wandering, and you took me in;

bbe@Matthew:25:36 @I had no clothing, and you gave it to me: when I was ill, or in prison, you came to me.

bbe@Matthew:25:37 @Then will the upright make answer to him, saying, Lord, when did we see you in need of food, and give it to you? or in need of drink, and give it to you?

bbe@Matthew:25:38 @And when did we see you wandering, and take you in? or without clothing, and give it to you?

bbe@Matthew:25:40 @And the King will make answer and say to them, Truly I say to you, Because you did it to the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.

bbe@Matthew:25:42 @For I was in need of food, and you gave it not to me; I was in need of drink, and you gave it not to me:

bbe@Matthew:25:43 @I was wandering, and you took me not in; without clothing, and you gave me no clothing; ill, and in prison, and you came not to me.

bbe@Matthew:25:44 @Then will they make answer, saying, Lord, when did we see you in need of food or drink, or wandering, or without clothing, or ill, or in prison, and did not take care of you?

bbe@Matthew:25:45 @Then will he make answer to them, saying, Truly I say to you, Because you did it not to the least of these, you did it not to me.

bbe@Matthew:26:8 @But when the disciples saw it they were angry, saying, To what purpose is this waste?

bbe@Matthew:26:9 @For we might have got much money for this and given it to the poor.

bbe@Matthew:26:10 @But Jesus, seeing it, said to them, Why are you troubling the woman? she has done a kind act to me.

bbe@Matthew:26:11 @For the poor you have ever with you, but me you have not for ever

bbe@Matthew:26:12 @For in putting this perfume on my body, she did it to make me ready for my last resting-place.

bbe@Matthew:26:15 @What will you give me, if I give him up to you? And the price was fixed at thirty bits of silver.

bbe@Matthew:26:18 @And he said to them, Go into the town to such a man, and say to him, The Master says, My time is near: I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.

bbe@Matthew:26:20 @Now when evening was come, he was seated at table with the twelve disciples;

bbe@Matthew:26:22 @And they were very said, and said to him, one by one, Is it I, Lord?

bbe@Matthew:26:23 @And he made answer and said, He who puts his hand into the plate with me, the same will be false to me.

bbe@Matthew:26:24 @The Son of man goes, even as the Writings say of him: but a curse is on that man through whom the Son of man is given up; it would have been well for that man if he had never come into the world.

bbe@Matthew:26:25 @And Judas, who was false to him, made answer and said, Is it I, Master? He says to him, Yes.

bbe@Matthew:26:26 @And when they were taking food, Jesus took bread and, after blessing it, he gave the broken bread to the disciples and said, Take it; this is my body.

bbe@Matthew:26:27 @And he took a cup and, having given praise, he gave it to them, saying,

bbe@Matthew:26:28 @Take of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the testament, which is given for men for the forgiveness of sins.

bbe@Matthew:26:29 @But I say to you that from now I will not take of this fruit of the vine, till that day when I take it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

bbe@Matthew:26:31 @Then said Jesus to them, All of you will be turned away from me this night: for it is said in the Writings, I will put to death the keeper of the sheep, and the sheep of the flock will be put to flight.

bbe@Matthew:26:35 @Peter says to him, Even if I am put to death with you, I will not be false to you. So said all the disciples.

bbe@Matthew:26:36 @Then comes Jesus with them to a place named Gethsemane, and says to his disciples, Be seated here, while I go over there for prayer.

bbe@Matthew:26:37 @And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and became sad and very troubled.

bbe@Matthew:26:38 @Then says he to them, My soul is very sad, even to death: keep watch with me here.

bbe@Matthew:26:39 @And he went forward a little, and falling down on his face in prayer, he said, O my Father, if it is possible, let this cup go from me; but let not my pleasure, but yours be done.

bbe@Matthew:26:40 @And he comes to the disciples, and sees that they are sleeping, and says to Peter, What, were you not able to keep watch with me one hour?

bbe@Matthew:26:41 @Keep watch with prayer, so that you may not be put to the test: the spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is feeble.

bbe@Matthew:26:42 @Again, a second time he went away, and said in prayer, O my Father, if this may not go from me without my taking it, let your pleasure be done.

bbe@Matthew:26:47 @And while he was still talking, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a band armed with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and those in authority over the people.

bbe@Matthew:26:51 @And one of those who were with Jesus put out his hand, and took out his sword and gave the servant of the high priest a blow, cutting off his ear.

bbe@Matthew:26:52 @Then says Jesus to him, Put up your sword again into its place: for all those who take the sword will come to death by the sword.

bbe@Matthew:26:53 @Does it not seem possible to you that if I make request to my Father he will even now send me an army of angels?

bbe@Matthew:26:54 @But how then would the Writings come true, which say that so it has to be?

bbe@Matthew:26:55 @In that hour Jesus said to the people, Have you come out as against a thief with swords and sticks to take me? I was teaching every day in the Temple and you took me not.

bbe@Matthew:26:56 @But all this has taken place so that the writings of the prophets might come true. Then all his disciples went from him in flight.

bbe@Matthew:26:57 @And those who had made Jesus prisoner took him away to the house of Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and those in authority over the people had come together.

bbe@Matthew:26:58 @But Peter went after him at a distance, to the house of the high priest, and went in and took his seat with the servants, to see the end.

bbe@Matthew:26:59 @Now the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin were looking for false witness against Jesus, so that they might put him to death;

bbe@Matthew:26:60 @And they were not able to get it, though a number of false witnesses came.

bbe@Matthew:26:61 @But later there came two who said, This man said, I am able to give the Temple of God to destruction, and to put it up again in three days.

bbe@Matthew:26:62 @And the high priest got up and said to him, Have you no answer? what is it which these say against you?

bbe@Matthew:26:65 @Then the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, He has said evil against God: what more need have we of witnesses? for now his words against God have come to your ears:

bbe@Matthew:26:66 @What is your opinion? They made answer and said, It is right for him to be put to death.

bbe@Matthew:26:69 @Now Peter was seated in the open square outside the house: and a servant-girl came to him, saying, You were with Jesus the Galilaean.

bbe@Matthew:26:70 @But he said before them all that it was false, saying, I have no knowledge of what you say.

bbe@Matthew:26:71 @And when he had gone out into the doorway, another saw him and says to those who were there, This man was with Jesus the Nazarene.

bbe@Matthew:26:72 @And again he said with an oath, I have no knowledge of the man.

bbe@Matthew:26:73 @And after a little time those who were near came and said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; because your talk is witness against you.

bbe@Matthew:26:74 @Then with curses and oaths he said, I have no knowledge of the man. And straight away there came the cry of a cock.

bbe@Matthew:26:75 @And the word of Jesus came back to Peter, when he said, Before the hour of the cock's cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And he went out, weeping bitterly.

bbe@Matthew:27:1 @Now when it was morning, all the chief priests and those in authority took thought together with the purpose of putting Jesus to death.

bbe@Matthew:27:3 @Then Judas, who was false to him, seeing that he was to be put to death, in his regret took back the thirty bits of silver to the chief priests and those in authority,

bbe@Matthew:27:4 @Saying, I have done wrong in giving into your hands an upright man. But they said, What is that to us? it is your business.

bbe@Matthew:27:6 @And the chief priests took the silver and said, It is not right to put it in the Temple store for it is the price of blood.

bbe@Matthew:27:7 @And they made a decision to get with the silver the potter's field, as a place for the dead of other countries.

bbe@Matthew:27:9 @Then came true that which was said by Jeremiah the prophet, And they took the thirty bits of silver, the price of him who was valued by the children of Israel;

bbe@Matthew:27:12 @But when the chief priests and those in authority made statements against him, he gave no answer.

bbe@Matthew:27:13 @Then says Pilate to him, Do you give no attention to what their witnesses say against you?

bbe@Matthew:27:15 @Now at the feast it was the way for the ruler to let free to the people one prisoner, at their selection.

bbe@Matthew:27:19 @And while he was on the judge's seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have nothing to do with that upright man, for I have had much trouble this day in a dream because of him.

bbe@Matthew:27:20 @Now the chief priests and those in authority got the people to make request for Barabbas, and for Jesus to be put to death.

bbe@Matthew:27:21 @But the ruler made answer and said to them, Which of the two is it your pleasure that I let go free? And they said, Barabbas.

bbe@Matthew:27:22 @Pilate says to them, What, then, am I to do with Jesus, who is named Christ? They all say, Let him be put to death on the cross.

bbe@Matthew:27:23 @And he said, Why, what evil has he done? But they gave loud cries, saying, To the cross with him!

bbe@Matthew:27:29 @And they made a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and put a rod in his right hand, and they went down on their knees before him, and made sport of him, saying, Long life to the King of the Jews.

bbe@Matthew:27:30 @And they put shame on him, and gave him blows on the head with the rod.

bbe@Matthew:27:32 @And while they were coming out, they saw a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they made him go with them, so that he might take up his cross.

bbe@Matthew:27:34 @They gave him wine mixed with bitter drink: and after tasting it, he took no more.

bbe@Matthew:27:37 @And they put up over his head the statement of his crime in writing, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

bbe@Matthew:27:38 @Then two thieves were put on crosses with him, one on the right and one on the left.

bbe@Matthew:27:39 @And those who went by said bitter words to him, shaking their heads and saying,

bbe@Matthew:27:40 @You who would give the Temple to destruction and put it up again in three days, get yourself free: if you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.

bbe@Matthew:27:41 @In the same way, the chief priests, making sport of him, with the scribes and those in authority, said,

bbe@Matthew:27:42 @A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will have faith in him.

bbe@Matthew:27:43 @He put his faith in God; let God be his saviour now, if he will have him; for he said, I am the Son of God.

bbe@Matthew:27:45 @Now from the sixth hour it was dark over all the land till the ninth hour.

bbe@Matthew:27:47 @And some of those who were near by, hearing it, said, This man is crying to Elijah.

bbe@Matthew:27:48 @And straight away one of them went quickly, and took a sponge, and made it full of bitter wine, and put it on a rod and gave him drink.

bbe@Matthew:27:50 @And Jesus gave another loud cry, and gave up his spirit.

bbe@Matthew:27:54 @Now the captain and those who were with him watching Jesus, when they saw the earth-shock and the things which were done, were in great fear and said, Truly this was a son of God.

bbe@Matthew:27:55 @And a number of women were there, watching from a distance, who had come with Jesus from Galilee, waiting on his needs.

bbe@Matthew:27:58 @This man went in to Pilate, and made a request for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate gave orders for it to be given to him.

bbe@Matthew:27:59 @And Joseph took the body, folding it in clean linen,

bbe@Matthew:27:60 @And put it in the resting-place which had been cut out of the rock for himself; and after rolling a great stone to the door of it he went away.

bbe@Matthew:27:65 @Pilate said to them, You have watchmen; go and make it as safe as you are able.

bbe@Matthew:27:66 @So they went, and made safe the place where his body was, putting a stamp on the stone, and the watchmen were with them.

bbe@Matthew:28:2 @And there was a great earth-shock; for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, rolling back the stone, took his seat on it.

bbe@Matthew:28:3 @His form was shining like the light, and his clothing was white as snow:

bbe@Matthew:28:8 @And they went away quickly, with fear and great joy, to give his disciples the news.

bbe@Matthew:28:12 @And when they had come together with those in authority, and had made their decision, they gave much money to the watchmen, saying,

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

bbe@Matthew:28:19 @Go then, and make disciples of all the nations, giving them baptism in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit:

bbe@Matthew:28:20 @Teaching them to keep all the rules which I have given you: and see, I am ever with you, even to the end of the world.

bbe@Mark:1:2 @Even as it is said in the book of Isaiah the prophet, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way;

bbe@Mark:1:6 @And John was clothed in camel's hair, with a leather band about him; and his food was locusts and honey.

bbe@Mark:1:8 @I have given you baptism with water, but he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Mark:1:9 @And it came about in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was given baptism by John in the Jordan.

bbe@Mark:1:10 @And straight away, coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens broken open and the Spirit coming down on him as a dove:

bbe@Mark:1:11 @And a voice came out of heaven, You are my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.

bbe@Mark:1:12 @And straight away the Spirit sent him out into the waste land.

bbe@Mark:1:13 @And he was in the waste land for forty days, being tested by Satan; and he was with the beasts; and the angels took care of him.

bbe@Mark:1:15 @And saying, The time has come, and the kingdom of God is near: let your hearts be turned from sin and have faith in the good news.

bbe@Mark:1:19 @And going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were in their boat stitching up their nets.

bbe@Mark:1:20 @And he said, Come after me: and they went away from their father Zebedee, who was in the boat with the servants, and came after him.

bbe@Mark:1:22 @And they were full of wonder at his teaching, because he gave it as one having authority, and not like the scribes.

bbe@Mark:1:23 @And there was in their Synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he gave a cry,

bbe@Mark:1:24 @Saying, What have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? have you come to put an end to us? I see well who you are, the Holy One of God.

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

bbe@Mark:1:27 @And they were all greatly surprised, so that they put questions to one another, saying, What is this? a new teaching! with authority he gives orders even to the unclean spirits, and they do what he says.

bbe@Mark:1:29 @And when they came out of the Synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

bbe@Mark:1:30 @Now Simon's wife's mother was ill, with a burning heat; and they gave him word of her:

bbe@Mark:1:32 @And in the evening, at sundown, they took to him all who were diseased, and those who had evil spirits.

bbe@Mark:1:34 @And a number, who were ill with different diseases, he made well, and sent out evil spirits; but he did not let the evil spirits say anything, because they had knowledge of him.

bbe@Mark:1:36 @And Simon and those who were with him came after him.

bbe@Mark:1:37 @And when they came up with him, they said to him, Everyone is looking for you.

bbe@Mark:1:39 @And he went into their Synagogues in every part of Galilee, preaching and driving out evil spirits.

bbe@Mark:1:40 @And a leper came to him and, going down on his knees before him, made a request, saying, If it is your pleasure, you have the power to make me clean.

bbe@Mark:1:41 @And being moved with pity, he put out his hand, and touching him said to him, It is my pleasure; be made clean.

bbe@Mark:1:44 @See that you say nothing to any man: but go and let the priest see you, and make yourself clean by an offering of the things ordered by Moses, for a witness to them.

bbe@Mark:1:45 @But he went out, and made it public, giving an account of it everywhere, so that Jesus was no longer able to go openly into a town, but was outside in the waste land; and they came to him from every part.

bbe@Mark:2:3 @And four men came to him with one on a bed who had no power of moving.

bbe@Mark:2:4 @And when they were unable to get near him because of all the people, they got the roof uncovered where he was: and when it was broken up, they let down the bed on which the man was.

bbe@Mark:2:5 @And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to him, Son, you have forgiveness for your sins.

bbe@Mark:2:8 @And Jesus, having knowledge in his spirit of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?

bbe@Mark:2:10 @But so that you may see that the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins on earth, (he said to the man,)

bbe@Mark:2:14 @And when he went by, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, seated at the place where taxes were taken, and he said to him, Come with me. And he got up, and went with him.

bbe@Mark:2:15 @And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.

bbe@Mark:2:16 @And the scribes of the Pharisees, when they saw that he was taking food with the tax-farmers and sinners, said to his disciples, Why does he take food and drink with such men?

bbe@Mark:2:17 @And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill: I have come not to get the upright but sinners.

bbe@Mark:2:18 @And John's disciples and the Pharisees were taking no food: and they came and said to him, Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees go without food, but your disciples do not?

bbe@Mark:2:19 @And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of a newly-married man go without food while he is with them? as long as they have him with them they will not go without food.

bbe@Mark:2:20 @But the days will come when the husband will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.

bbe@Mark:2:21 @No man puts a bit of new cloth on an old coat: or the new, by pulling away from the old, makes a worse hole.

bbe@Mark:2:23 @And it came about that on the Sabbath day he was going through the grain-fields; and while they were walking, his disciples took the heads of grain.

bbe@Mark:2:24 @And the Pharisees said to him, Why are they doing what it is not right to do on the Sabbath?

bbe@Mark:2:25 @And he said to them, Have you no knowledge of what David did, when he had need and was without food, he, and those who were with him?

bbe@Mark:2:26 @How he went into the house of God when Abiathar was high priest, and took for food the holy bread, which only the priests may take, and gave it to those who were with him?

bbe@Mark:3:4 @And he said to them, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to put to death? But they said nothing.

bbe@Mark:3:5 @And looking round on them he was angry, being sad because of their hard hearts; and he said to the man, Put out your hand. And he put it out, and his hand was made well.

bbe@Mark:3:6 @And the Pharisees went out, and straight away made designs with the Herodians about how they might put him to death.

bbe@Mark:3:7 @And Jesus went away with his disciples to the sea, and a great number from Galilee came after him: and from Judaea,

bbe@Mark:3:9 @And he made a request to his disciples to have a little boat ready for him, so that he might not be crushed by the people;

bbe@Mark:3:11 @And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw him, went down before him, crying out, and saying, You are the Son of God.

bbe@Mark:3:13 @And he went up into the mountain, and sent for those whom it was his pleasure to have with him: and they went to him.

bbe@Mark:3:14 @And he took twelve to be with him, so that he might send them out as preachers,

bbe@Mark:3:15 @And give them the power of driving out evil spirits:

bbe@Mark:3:21 @And when his friends had news of it, they went out to get him, saying, He is off his head.

bbe@Mark:3:22 @And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem, said, He has Beelzebub, and, By the ruler of evil spirits he sends evil spirits out of men.

bbe@Mark:3:23 @And turning to them, he said to them in the form of a story, How is it possible for Satan to put out Satan?

bbe@Mark:3:26 @And if Satan is at war with himself, and there is division in him, he will not keep his place but will come to an end.

bbe@Mark:3:27 @But no one is able to go into the house of the strong man and take his goods, without first putting cords round the strong man, and then he will take his goods.

bbe@Mark:3:29 @But whoever says evil things against the Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness, but the evil he has done will be with him for ever:

bbe@Mark:3:30 @Because they said, He has an unclean spirit.

bbe@Mark:4:4 @And while he was doing it, some was dropped by the wayside, and the birds came and took it for food.

bbe@Mark:4:5 @And some went on the stones, where it had not much earth; and it came up straight away, because the earth was not deep:

bbe@Mark:4:6 @And when the sun was high, it was burned; and because it had no root, it became dry and dead.

bbe@Mark:4:7 @And some went among the thorns, and the thorns came up, and it had no room for growth and gave no fruit.

bbe@Mark:4:8 @And some, falling on good earth, gave fruit, coming up and increasing, and giving thirty, sixty, and a hundred times as much.

bbe@Mark:4:10 @And when he was by himself, those who were round him with the twelve put questions to him about the purpose of the stories

bbe@Mark:4:12 @So that seeing they may see, and it will not be clear to them; and hearing it, they will not get the sense; for fear that they may be turned again to me and have forgiveness.

bbe@Mark:4:16 @And in the same way, these are they who are planted on the stones, who, when the word has come to their ears, straight away take it with joy;

bbe@Mark:4:19 @And the cares of this life, and the deceits of wealth, and the desire for other things coming in, put a stop to the growth of the word, and it gives no fruit.

bbe@Mark:4:20 @And these are they who were planted on the good earth; such as give ear to the word, and take it into their hearts, and give fruit, thirty and sixty and a hundred times as much.

bbe@Mark:4:21 @And he said to them, When the light comes in, do people put it under a vessel, or under the bed, and not on its table?

bbe@Mark:4:28 @The earth gives fruit by herself; first the leaf, then the head, then the full grain.

bbe@Mark:4:29 @But when the grain is ready, he quickly sends men to get it cut, because the time for cutting has come.

bbe@Mark:4:30 @And he said, What picture may we give of the kingdom of God, or with what story may we make it clear?

bbe@Mark:4:31 @It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is put in the earth, is smaller than all the seeds on the earth,

bbe@Mark:4:32 @But when it is planted, it comes up, and becomes taller than all the plants, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of heaven are able to take rest in its shade.

bbe@Mark:4:33 @And with a number of such stories he gave them his teaching, as they were able to take it:

bbe@Mark:4:34 @And without a story he said nothing to them: but privately to his disciples he made all things clear.

bbe@Mark:4:36 @And going away from the people, they took him with them, as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.

bbe@Mark:4:38 @And he himself was in the back of the boat, sleeping on the cushion: and they, awaking him, said, Master, is it nothing to you that we are in danger of destruction?

bbe@Mark:4:40 @And he said to them, Why are you full of fear? have you still no faith?

bbe@Mark:5:2 @And when he had got out of the boat, straight away there came to him from the place of the dead a man with an unclean spirit.

bbe@Mark:5:3 @He was living in the place of the dead: and no man was able to keep him down, no, not with a chain;

bbe@Mark:5:5 @And all the time, by day and by night, in the place of the dead, and in the mountains, he was crying out and cutting himself with stones.

bbe@Mark:5:7 @And crying out with a loud voice he said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God's name, do not be cruel to me.

bbe@Mark:5:8 @For Jesus had said to him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.

bbe@Mark:5:13 @And he let them do it. And the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea, about two thousand of them; and they came to their death in the sea.

bbe@Mark:5:14 @And their keepers went running and gave an account of it in the town and in the country. And people came to see what had taken place.

bbe@Mark:5:15 @And they came to Jesus, and saw the man in whom had been the evil spirits seated, clothed and with full use of his senses, and they were full of fear.

bbe@Mark:5:16 @And those who had seen it gave them an account of what had been done to him who had the evil spirits, and of the fate of the pigs.

bbe@Mark:5:18 @And when he was getting into the boat, the man in whom had been the evil spirits had a great desire to come with him.

bbe@Mark:5:23 @And made strong prayers to him, saying, My little daughter is near to death: it is my prayer that you will come and put your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and have life.

bbe@Mark:5:24 @And he went with him; and a great number of people went after him, and came round him.

bbe@Mark:5:33 @The woman, shaking with fear, conscious of what had been done to her, came and, falling on her face before him, gave him a true account of everything.

bbe@Mark:5:34 @And he said to her, Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be free from your disease.

bbe@Mark:5:36 @But Jesus, giving no attention to their words, said to the ruler of the Synagogue, Have no fear, only have faith.

bbe@Mark:5:37 @And he did not let anyone come with him, but Peter and James and John, the brother of James.

bbe@Mark:5:40 @And they were laughing at him. But he, having sent them all out, took the father of the child and her mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was.

bbe@Mark:5:41 @And taking her by the hand, he said to her, Talitha cumi, which is, My child, I say to you, Get up.

bbe@Mark:5:42 @And the young girl got up straight away, and was walking about; she being twelve years old. And they were overcome with wonder.

bbe@Mark:6:1 @And he went away from there, and came into his country; and his disciples went with him.

bbe@Mark:6:3 @Is not this the woodworker, the son of Mary, and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were bitter against him.

bbe@Mark:6:4 @And Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour, but in his country, and among his relations, and in his family.

bbe@Mark:6:6 @And he was greatly surprised because they had no faith. And he went about the country places teaching.

bbe@Mark:6:7 @And he gave orders to the twelve, and sent them out two by two; and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits;

bbe@Mark:6:9 @They were to go with common shoes on their feet, and not to take two coats.

bbe@Mark:6:11 @And whatever place will not take you in and will not give ear to you, when you go away, put off the dust from your feet as a witness against them.

bbe@Mark:6:13 @And they sent out a number of evil spirits, and put oil on a great number who were ill, and made them well.

bbe@Mark:6:15 @But others said, It is Elijah. And others said, It is a prophet, even like one of the prophets.

bbe@Mark:6:16 @But Herod, when he had news of it, said, John, whom I put to death, has come back from the dead.

bbe@Mark:6:18 @For John said to Herod, It is wrong for you to have your brother's wife.

bbe@Mark:6:19 @And Herodias was bitter against him, desiring to put him to death; but she was not able;

bbe@Mark:6:22 @And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and did a dance, Herod and those who were at table with him were pleased with her; and the king said to the girl, Make a request for anything and I will give it you.

bbe@Mark:6:23 @And he took an oath, saying to her, Whatever is your desire I will give it to you, even half of my kingdom.

bbe@Mark:6:26 @And the king was very sad; but because of his oaths, and those who were with him at table, he would not say 'No' to her.

bbe@Mark:6:27 @And straight away the king sent out one of his armed men, and gave him an order to come back with the head: and he went and took off John's head in prison,

bbe@Mark:6:28 @And came back with the head on a plate, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.

bbe@Mark:6:29 @And when his disciples had news of it, they came and took up his body, and put it in its last resting-place.

bbe@Mark:6:34 @And he got out, and saw a great mass of people, and he had pity on them, because they were like sheep without a keeper: and he gave them teaching about a number of things.

bbe@Mark:6:35 @And at the end of the day, his disciples came to him and said, This place is waste land, and it is late:

bbe@Mark:6:37 @But he said to them in answer, Give them food yourselves. And they said to him, Are we to go and get bread for two hundred pence, and give it to them?

bbe@Mark:6:43 @And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken bits and of the fishes.

bbe@Mark:6:49 @But they, when they saw him walking on the sea, took him for a spirit, and gave a loud cry:

bbe@Mark:6:50 @For they all saw him, and were troubled. But straight away he said to them, Take heart, it is I, have no fear.

bbe@Mark:6:52 @For it was not clear to them about the bread; but their hearts were hard.

bbe@Mark:6:55 @And went running through all the country round about, and took on their beds those who were ill, to where it was said that he was.

bbe@Mark:7:2 @And had seen that some of his disciples took their bread with unclean, that is, unwashed, hands.

bbe@Mark:7:3 @Now the Pharisees, and all the Jews, do not take food without washing their hands with care, keeping the old rule which has been handed down to them:

bbe@Mark:7:5 @And the Pharisees and the scribes put the question to him, Why do your disciples not keep the rules of the fathers, but take their bread with unwashed hands?

bbe@Mark:7:6 @And he said, Well did Isaiah say of you, you false ones: These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

bbe@Mark:7:11 @But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is Corban, that is to say, Given to God,

bbe@Mark:7:18 @And he said to them, Have even you so little wisdom? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside is not able to make him unclean,

bbe@Mark:7:19 @Because it goes not into the heart but into the stomach, and goes out with the waste? He said this, making all food clean.

bbe@Mark:7:22 @The taking of goods and of life, broken faith between husband and wife, the desire of wealth, wrongdoing, deceit, sins of the flesh, an evil eye, angry words, pride, foolish acts:

bbe@Mark:7:24 @And he went away from there to the country of Tyre and Sidon. And he went into a house, desiring that no man might have knowledge of it: and he was not able to keep it secret.

bbe@Mark:7:25 @But a woman, whose little daughter had an unclean spirit, having had news of him, came straight away and went down at his feet.

bbe@Mark:7:26 @Now the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by birth: and she made a request to him that he would send the evil spirit out of her daughter.

bbe@Mark:7:27 @And he said to her, Let the children first have their food: for it is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.

bbe@Mark:7:28 @But she said to him in answer, Yes, Lord: even the dogs under the table take the bits dropped by the children.

bbe@Mark:7:29 @And he said to her, For this saying go your way; the evil spirit has gone out of your daughter.

bbe@Mark:7:30 @And she went away to her house, and saw the child on the bed, and the evil spirit gone out.

bbe@Mark:7:32 @And they came to him with one who had no power of hearing and had trouble in talking; and they made a request to him to put his hands on him.

bbe@Mark:7:33 @And he took him on one side from the people privately, and put his fingers into his ears, and he put water from his mouth on the man's tongue with his finger;

bbe@Mark:7:36 @And he gave them orders not to give news of it to anyone; but the more he made this request, so much the more they made it public.

bbe@Mark:7:37 @And they were overcome with wonder, saying, He has done all things well: he even gives back the power of hearing and the power of talking to those who have been without them.

bbe@Mark:8:2 @I have pity for these people because they have been with me now three days, and have no food;

bbe@Mark:8:3 @If I send them away to their houses with no food, they will be overcome by weariness on the way; and some of them have come from far.

bbe@Mark:8:4 @And his disciples said in answer, How will it be possible to get enough bread for these men here in a waste place?

bbe@Mark:8:6 @And he made the people be seated on the earth: and he took the seven cakes and, having given praise, he gave the broken bread to his disciples to put before them; and they put it before the people.

bbe@Mark:8:8 @And they took the food, and had enough; and they took up seven baskets full of the broken bits.

bbe@Mark:8:10 @And he got into the boat with his disciples straight away, and came into the country of Dalmanutha.

bbe@Mark:8:12 @And he was very sad in spirit, and said, Why is this generation looking for a sign? truly, I say to you, No sign will be given to this generation.

bbe@Mark:8:14 @And they had taken no thought to get bread; and they had only one cake of bread with them in the boat.

bbe@Mark:8:17 @And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Why are you reasoning among yourselves because you have no bread? do you still not see, and is it still not clear to you? are your hearts so hard?

bbe@Mark:8:19 @When I made a division of the five cakes of bread among the five thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? They said to him, Twelve.

bbe@Mark:8:20 @And when the seven among the four thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? And they said to him, Seven.

bbe@Mark:8:21 @And he said to them, Is it still not clear to you?

bbe@Mark:8:23 @And he took the blind man by the hand, and went with him out of the town; and when he had put water from his mouth on his eyes, and put his hands on him, he said, Do you see anything?

bbe@Mark:8:27 @And Jesus went out, with his disciples, into the little towns round Caesarea Philippi; and on the way he put a question to his disciples, saying, Who do men say that I am?

bbe@Mark:8:31 @And teaching them, he said that the Son of man would have to undergo much, and be hated by those in authority, and the chief priests, and the scribes, and be put to death, and after three days come back from the dead.

bbe@Mark:8:34 @And turning to the mass of people with his disciples, he said to them, If any man has the desire to come after me, let him give up all other desires, and take up his cross and come after me.

bbe@Mark:8:35 @Whoever has a desire to keep his life, will have it taken from him; and whoever gives up his life because of me and the good news, will keep it.

bbe@Mark:8:36 @What profit has a man if he gets all the world with the loss of his life?

bbe@Mark:8:38 @Whoever has a feeling of shame because of me and my words in this false and evil generation, the Son of man will have a feeling of shame because of him, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.

bbe@Mark:9:1 @And he said to them, Truly I say to you, There are some here who will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God come with power.

bbe@Mark:9:2 @And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and made them go up with him into a high mountain by themselves: and he was changed in form before them:

bbe@Mark:9:3 @And his clothing became shining, very white, as no cleaner on earth would make it.

bbe@Mark:9:4 @And there came before them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

bbe@Mark:9:5 @And Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tents; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

bbe@Mark:9:8 @And suddenly looking round about, they saw no one any longer, but Jesus only with themselves.

bbe@Mark:9:12 @And he said to them, Truly, Elijah does come first, and puts all things in order; and how is it said in the Writings that the Son of man will go through much sorrow and be made as nothing?

bbe@Mark:9:13 @But I say to you that Elijah has come, and they have done to him whatever they were pleased to do, even as the Writings say about him.

bbe@Mark:9:17 @And one of the number said to him in answer, Master, I came to you with my son, who has in him a spirit which takes away his power of talking;

bbe@Mark:9:18 @And wherever it takes him, it puts him down violently, streaming at the lips and twisted with pain; and his strength goes from him; and I made a request to your disciples to send it out, and they were not able.

bbe@Mark:9:19 @And he said to them in answer, O generation without faith, how long will I have to be with you? how long will I put up with you? let him come to me.

bbe@Mark:9:20 @And they took him to him: and when he saw him, the spirit in him straight away became violent; and he went down on the earth, rolling about and streaming at the lips

bbe@Mark:9:22 @And frequently it has sent him into the fire and into the water, for his destruction; but if you are able to do anything, have pity on us, and give us help.

bbe@Mark:9:23 @And Jesus said to him, If you are able! All things are possible to him who has faith.

bbe@Mark:9:24 @Straight away the father of the child gave a cry, saying, I have faith; make my feeble faith stronger.

bbe@Mark:9:25 @And when Jesus saw that the people came running together, he gave orders to the unclean spirit, saying to him, You, spirit, who are the cause of his loss of voice and hearing, I say to you, come out of him, and never again go into him.

bbe@Mark:9:26 @And after crying out and shaking him violently, it came out: and the child became like one dead; so that most of them said, He is dead.

bbe@Mark:9:28 @And when he had gone into the house, his disciples said to him privately, Why were we unable to send it out?

bbe@Mark:9:30 @And they went out from there, through Galilee; and it was his desire that no man might have knowledge of it;

bbe@Mark:9:32 @But the saying was not clear to them, and they were in fear of questioning him about it.

bbe@Mark:9:36 @And he took a little child, and put him in the middle of them; and taking him in his arms, he said to them,

bbe@Mark:9:37 @Whoever will give honour to one such little child in my name, gives honour to me: and whoever gives honour to me, gives honour not to me, but to him who sent me.

bbe@Mark:9:38 @John said to him, Master, we saw one driving out evil spirits in your name: and we said that he might not, because he is not one of us.

bbe@Mark:9:41 @Whoever gives you a cup of water, because you are Christ's, truly I say to you, he will in no way be without his reward.

bbe@Mark:9:42 @And whoever is a cause of trouble to one of these little ones who have faith in me, it would be better for him if a great stone was put round his neck and he was dropped into the sea.

bbe@Mark:9:43 @And if your hand is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off; it is better for you to go into life with one hand than to have two hands and go into hell, into the eternal fire.

bbe@Mark:9:45 @And if your foot is a cause of trouble to you, let it be cut off: it is better for you to go into life with one foot than to have two feet and go into hell.

bbe@Mark:9:47 @And if your eye is a cause of trouble to you, take it out: it is better for you to go into the kingdom of God with one eye than, having two eyes, to go into hell,

bbe@Mark:9:49 @Everyone will be salted with fire.

bbe@Mark:9:50 @Salt is good; but if the taste goes from it, how will you make it salt again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace one with another.

bbe@Mark:10:2 @And Pharisees came to him, testing him with the question, Is it right for a man to put away his wife?

bbe@Mark:10:4 @And they said to him, Moses let us give her a statement in writing, and be free from her.

bbe@Mark:10:13 @And they took to him little children, so that he might put his hands on them: and the disciples said sharp words to them.

bbe@Mark:10:14 @And when Jesus saw it, he was angry, and said to them, Let the little children come to me, and do not keep them away; for of such is the kingdom of God.

bbe@Mark:10:15 @Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.

bbe@Mark:10:19 @You have knowledge of what is said in the law, Do not put any one to death, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Do not get money by deceit, Give honour to your father and mother.

bbe@Mark:10:21 @And Jesus, looking on him and loving him, said, There is one thing needed: go, get money for your goods, and give it to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven: and come with me.

bbe@Mark:10:23 @And Jesus, looking round about, said to his disciples, How hard it is for those who have wealth to come into the kingdom of God!

bbe@Mark:10:24 @And the disciples were full of wonder at his words. But Jesus said to them again, Children, how hard it is for those who put faith in wealth to come into the kingdom of God!

bbe@Mark:10:25 @It is simpler for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a man of wealth to come into the kingdom of God.

bbe@Mark:10:27 @Jesus, looking on them, said, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God.

bbe@Mark:10:30 @Who will not get a hundred times as much now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and land--though with great troubles; and, in the world to come, eternal life.

bbe@Mark:10:40 @But to be seated at my right hand or at my left is not for me to give: but it is for those for whom it has been made ready.

bbe@Mark:10:41 @And hearing this, the ten became very angry with James and John.

bbe@Mark:10:42 @And Jesus made them come to him, and said to them, You see that those who are made rulers over the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.

bbe@Mark:10:43 @But it is not so among you: but whoever has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant:

bbe@Mark:10:46 @And they came to Jericho: and when he was going out of Jericho, with his disciples and a great number of people, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind man, was seated by the wayside, with his hand out for money.

bbe@Mark:10:47 @And when it came to his ears that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he gave a cry, and said, Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.

bbe@Mark:10:52 @And Jesus said to him, Go on your way; your faith has made you well. And straight away he was able to see, and went after him in the way.

bbe@Mark:11:2 @And said to them, Go into the little town opposite: and when you come to it, you will see a young ass with a cord round his neck, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose, and come back with him.

bbe@Mark:11:11 @And he went into Jerusalem into the Temple; and after looking round about on all things, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve

bbe@Mark:11:13 @And seeing a fig-tree in the distance with leaves, he went to see if by chance it had anything on it: and when he came to it, he saw nothing but leaves, for it was not the time for the fruit.

bbe@Mark:11:14 @And he said to it, Let no man take fruit from you for ever. And his disciples took note of his words.

bbe@Mark:11:17 @And he gave them teaching, and said to them, Is it not in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer for all the nations? but you have made it a hole of thieves.

bbe@Mark:11:18 @And it came to the ears of the chief priests and scribes, and they took thought how they might put him to death; being in fear of him, because all the people were full of wonder at his teaching.

bbe@Mark:11:21 @And Peter, having a memory of it, said to him, Master, see, the tree which was cursed by you is dead.

bbe@Mark:11:22 @And Jesus, answering, said to them, Have God's faith.

bbe@Mark:11:23 @Truly I say to you, Whoever says to this mountain, Be taken up and be put into the sea; and has no doubt in his heart, but has faith that what he says will come about, he will have his desire.

bbe@Mark:11:24 @For this reason I say to you, Whatever you make a request for in prayer, have faith that it has been given to you, and you will have it.

bbe@Mark:11:27 @And they came again to Jerusalem: and while he was walking in the Temple, there came to him the chief priests and the scribes and those in authority:

bbe@Mark:11:28 @And they said to him, By what authority do you do these things? or who gave you authority to do these things?

bbe@Mark:11:29 @And Jesus said to them, I will put to you one question; give me an answer, and I will say by what authority I do these things.

bbe@Mark:11:30 @The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from men? give me an answer.

bbe@Mark:11:31 @And they gave thought to it among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not have faith in him?

bbe@Mark:11:33 @And they said in answer to Jesus, We have no idea. And Jesus said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.

bbe@Mark:12:1 @And he gave them teaching in the form of stories. A man had a vine-garden planted, and put a wall about it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and put up a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.

bbe@Mark:12:2 @And when the time came, he sent a servant to get from the workmen some of the fruit of the garden.

bbe@Mark:12:3 @And they took him, and gave him blows, and sent him away with nothing.

bbe@Mark:12:7 @But those workmen said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death, and the heritage will be ours.

bbe@Mark:12:10 @Have you not seen this which is in the Writings: The stone which the builders put on one side, the same was made the chief stone of the building:

bbe@Mark:12:11 @This was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes?

bbe@Mark:12:14 @And when they had come, they said to him, Master, we are certain that you are true, and have no fear of anyone: you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God: Is it right to give taxes to Caesar or not?

bbe@Mark:12:15 @Are we to give or not to give? But he, conscious of their false hearts, said to them, Why do you put me to the test? give me a penny, so that I may see it.

bbe@Mark:12:16 @And they gave him one. And he said to them, Whose is this image and name on it? And they said to him, Caesar's.

bbe@Mark:12:19 @Master, in the law Moses says, If a man's brother comes to his end, and has a wife still living and no child, it is right for his brother to take his wife, and get a family for his brother.

bbe@Mark:12:24 @Jesus said to them, Is not this the reason for your error, that you have no knowledge of the holy Writings or of the power of God?

bbe@Mark:12:30 @And you are to have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.

bbe@Mark:12:33 @And to have love for him with all the heart, and with all the mind, and with all the strength, and to have the same love for his neighbour as for himself, is much more than all forms of offerings.

bbe@Mark:12:36 @David himself said in the Holy Spirit, The Lord said to my Lord, Be seated at my right hand, till I put those who are against you under your feet.

bbe@Mark:12:38 @And in his teaching he said, Be on your watch against the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes and be respected in the market-places,

bbe@Mark:12:42 @And there came a poor widow, and she put in two little bits of money, which make a farthing.

bbe@Mark:13:3 @And while he was seated on the Mountain of Olives opposite the Temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew said to him privately,

bbe@Mark:13:7 @And when you have news of wars and talk of wars, do not be troubled; these things have to be, but it is still not the end.

bbe@Mark:13:8 @Nation will go to war with nation, and kingdom with kingdom: there will be earth-shocks in different places; there will be times when there is no food; these things are the first of the troubles.

bbe@Mark:13:11 @And when you are taken and given up to be judged, do not be troubled about what to say: but whatever is given to you in that hour, say: because it is not you who say it, but the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Mark:13:14 @But when you see the unclean thing which makes destruction, in the place where it has no right to be (let this be clear to the reader), then let those who are in Judaea go quickly to the mountains:

bbe@Mark:13:17 @And it will be hard for women who are with child and for her who has a baby at the breast in those days.

bbe@Mark:13:18 @And say a prayer that it may not be in the winter.

bbe@Mark:13:21 @And then if any man says to you, See, here is Christ; or, See, there; have no faith in it:

bbe@Mark:13:26 @And then they will see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory.

bbe@Mark:13:28 @Take an example from the fig-tree: when its branches become soft and put out their leaves, you see that the summer is near;

bbe@Mark:13:33 @Take care, keep watch with prayer: for you are not certain when the time will be.

bbe@Mark:13:34 @It is as when a man who is in another country for a time, having gone away from his house, and given authority to his servants and to everyone his work, gives the porter an order to keep watch.

bbe@Mark:14:1 @It was now two days before the feast of the Passover and the unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes made designs how they might take him by deceit and put him to death:

bbe@Mark:14:3 @And while he was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, seated at table, there came a woman with a bottle of perfumed oil of great price; and when the bottle was broken she put the perfume on his head.

bbe@Mark:14:5 @We might have got more than three hundred pence for it, and given the money to the poor. And they said things against her among themselves.

bbe@Mark:14:7 @The poor you have ever with you, and whenever you have the desire you may do them good: but me you have not for ever.

bbe@Mark:14:8 @She has done what she was able: she has put oil on my body to make it ready for its last resting-place.

bbe@Mark:14:13 @And he sent two of his disciples, and said to them, Go into the town, and there will come to you a man with a vessel of water: go after him;

bbe@Mark:14:14 @And wherever he goes in, say to the owner of the house, The Master says, Where is my guest-room, where I may take the Passover with my disciples?

bbe@Mark:14:15 @And he will take you up himself to a great room with a table and seats: there make ready for us.

bbe@Mark:14:16 @And the disciples went out and came into the town, and saw that it was as he had said: and they made ready the Passover.

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

bbe@Mark:14:18 @And while they were seated taking food, Jesus said, Truly I say to you, One of you will be false to me, one who is taking food with me.

bbe@Mark:14:19 @They were sad, and said to him one by one, Is it I?

bbe@Mark:14:20 @And he said to them, It is one of the twelve, one who is putting his bread with me into the same plate.

bbe@Mark:14:21 @The Son of man goes, even as the Writings say of him: but cursed is that man through whom the Son of man is given up! It would have been well for that man if he had never been given birth.

bbe@Mark:14:22 @And while they were taking food, he took bread, and after blessing it, he gave the broken bread to them, and said, Take it: this is my body.

bbe@Mark:14:23 @And he took a cup, and when he had given praise, he gave it to them: and they all had a drink from it.

bbe@Mark:14:25 @Truly I say to you, I will take no more of the fruit of the vine till the day when I take it new in the kingdom of God.

bbe@Mark:14:27 @And Jesus said to them, You will all be turned away from me: for it is in the Writings, I will put the keeper of the sheep to death, and the sheep will be put to flight.

bbe@Mark:14:31 @But he said with passion, If I have to be put to death with you, I will not be false to you. And they all said the same.

bbe@Mark:14:33 @And he took with him Peter and James and John, and grief and great trouble came on him.

bbe@Mark:14:34 @And he said to them, My soul is very sad, even to death: be here a little time, and keep watch.

bbe@Mark:14:35 @And he went forward a little, and falling down on the earth, made request that, if possible, the hour might go from him.

bbe@Mark:14:38 @Keep watch with prayer, so that you may not be put to the test; the spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is feeble.

bbe@Mark:14:41 @And he came the third time, and said to them, Go on sleeping now and take your rest: it is enough; the hour has come; see, the Son of man is given up into the hands of evil men.

bbe@Mark:14:43 @And straight away, while he was still talking, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great band with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and the scribes and those in authority.

bbe@Mark:14:48 @And Jesus said to them, Have you come out as against a thief, with swords and sticks to take me?

bbe@Mark:14:49 @I was with you every day in the Temple teaching, and you did not take me; but this is done so that the Writings may come true.

bbe@Mark:14:51 @And a certain young man went after him, with only a linen cloth about his body; and they put their hands on him;

bbe@Mark:14:52 @But he got away unclothed, without the linen cloth.

bbe@Mark:14:53 @And they took Jesus away to the high priest; and there came together with him all the chief priests and those in authority and the scribes.

bbe@Mark:14:54 @And Peter had come after him at a distance, even into the house of the high priest; and he was seated with the captains, warming himself in the light of the fire.

bbe@Mark:14:55 @Now the chief priests and all the Sanhedrin were looking for witness against Jesus so that they might put him to death; and they were unable to get any.

bbe@Mark:14:56 @For a number gave false witness against him and their witness was not in agreement.

bbe@Mark:14:57 @Then some got up and gave false witness against him, saying,

bbe@Mark:14:58 @He said in our hearing, I will put an end to this Temple which is made with hands, and in three days I will make another without hands.

bbe@Mark:14:59 @And even so their witness was not in agreement.

bbe@Mark:14:60 @And the high priest got up in the middle of them, and said to Jesus, Do you say nothing in answer? what is it which these say against you?

bbe@Mark:14:62 @And Jesus said, I am: and you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.

bbe@Mark:14:63 @And the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, What more need have we of witnesses?

bbe@Mark:14:64 @His words against God have come to your ears: what is your opinion? And they all said it was right for him to be put to death.

bbe@Mark:14:65 @And some put shame on him and, covering his face, gave him blows and said to him, Now say what is to come: and the captains took him and gave him blows with their hands.

bbe@Mark:14:67 @And seeing Peter warming himself by the fire, she gave him a look, and said, You were with this Nazarene, even Jesus.

bbe@Mark:14:70 @But again he said it was not so. And after a little time, again those who were near said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; for you are a Galilaean.

bbe@Mark:14:71 @But, with curses and oaths, he said, I have no knowledge of the man about whom you are talking.

bbe@Mark:14:72 @And in the same minute, the cock gave a second cry. And it came to Peter's mind how Jesus had said to him, Before the cock's second cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And at this thought he was overcome with weeping.

bbe@Mark:15:1 @And the first thing in the morning the chief priests, with those in authority and the scribes and all the Sanhedrin, had a meeting, and put cords round Jesus, and took him away, and gave him up to Pilate.

bbe@Mark:15:7 @And there was one named Barabbas, in prison with those who had gone against the government and in the fight had taken life.

bbe@Mark:15:9 @And Pilate said in answer to them, Is it your desire that I let the King of the Jews go free?

bbe@Mark:15:13 @And they said again loudly, To the cross with him!

bbe@Mark:15:17 @And they put a purple robe on him, and twisting a crown of thorns, they put it on him;

bbe@Mark:15:19 @And they gave him blows on the head with a stick and put shame on him and, going down on their knees, gave him worship

bbe@Mark:15:21 @And they made one, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who was going by, coming from the country, go with them, so that he might take his cross.

bbe@Mark:15:23 @And they gave him wine mixed with myrrh; but he did not take it.

bbe@Mark:15:25 @And it was the third hour when they put him on the cross.

bbe@Mark:15:26 @And the statement of his crime was put in writing on the cross, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

bbe@Mark:15:27 @And they put two thieves on crosses with him, one on his right side, and one on his left.

bbe@Mark:15:29 @And those who went by made sport of him, shaking their heads, and saying, Ha! you who give the Temple to destruction, and put it up again in three days,

bbe@Mark:15:31 @In the same way the chief priests, laughing at him among themselves with the scribes, said, A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself.

bbe@Mark:15:32 @Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and have belief. And those who were put on crosses with him said evil things against him.

bbe@Mark:15:33 @And when the sixth hour had come, it was dark over all the land till the ninth hour.

bbe@Mark:15:35 @And some of those who were near, hearing it, said, See, he is crying to Elijah.

bbe@Mark:15:36 @And one of them went quickly and, getting a sponge full of bitter wine, put it on a rod, and gave it to him for drink, saying, Let be; let us see if Elijah will come to take him down.

bbe@Mark:15:37 @And Jesus gave a loud cry, and gave up his spirit.

bbe@Mark:15:39 @And when the captain, who was near, saw how he gave up his spirit, he said, Truly this man was a son of God.

bbe@Mark:15:41 @Who went with him when he was in Galilee and took care of him; and a number of other women who came up with him to Jerusalem.

bbe@Mark:15:42 @And when it was evening, because it was the time of getting ready, that is, the day before the Sabbath,

bbe@Mark:15:43 @There came Joseph of Arimathaea, a responsible man in high honour, who was himself waiting for the kingdom of God; and he went in to Pilate without fear, and made a request for the body of Jesus.

bbe@Mark:15:45 @And when he had news of it from the captain, he let Joseph have the body.

bbe@Mark:16:4 @And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; and it was of great size.

bbe@Mark:16:5 @And when they went in, they saw a young man seated on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were full of wonder.

bbe@Mark:16:9 @Now when he came back from the dead early on the first day of the week, he went first to Mary Magdalene, from whom he had sent out seven evil spirits.

bbe@Mark:16:10 @She went and gave news of it to those who had been with him, while they were sorrowing and weeping.

bbe@Mark:16:11 @And they, when it came to their ears that he was living, and had been seen by her, had no belief in it.

bbe@Mark:16:13 @And they went away and gave news of it to the rest; and they had no belief in what was said.

bbe@Mark:16:14 @And later he was seen by the eleven themselves while they were taking food; and he said sharp words to them because they had no faith and their hearts were hard, and because they had no belief in those who had seen him after he had come back from the dead.

bbe@Mark:16:16 @He who has faith and is given baptism will get salvation; but he who has not faith will be judged.

bbe@Mark:16:17 @And these signs will be with those who have faith: in my name they will send out evil spirits; and they will make use of new languages;

bbe@Mark:16:18 @They will take up snakes, and if there is poison in their drink, it will do them no evil; they will put their hands on those who are ill, and they will get well.

bbe@Mark:16:20 @And they went out, preaching everywhere, the Lord working with them, and giving witness to the word by the signs which came after. So be it.

bbe@Luke:1:3 @It seemed good to me, having made observation, with great care, of the direction of events in their order, to put the facts in writing for you, most noble Theophilus;

bbe@Luke:1:7 @And they were without children, because Elisabeth had never given birth, and they were at that time very old.

bbe@Luke:1:8 @Now it came about that in his turn he was acting as priest before God,

bbe@Luke:1:15 @For he will be great in the eyes of the Lord; he will not take wine or strong drink; and he will be full of the Spirit of God from his birth.

bbe@Luke:1:17 @And he will go before his face in the spirit and power of Elijah, turning the hearts of fathers to their children, and wrongdoers to the way of righteousness; to make ready a people whose hearts have been turned to the Lord.

bbe@Luke:1:20 @Now, see, you will be without voice or language till the day when these things come about, because you had not faith in my words, which will have effect at the right time.

bbe@Luke:1:21 @And the people were waiting for Zacharias and were surprised because he was in the Temple for such a long time.

bbe@Luke:1:22 @And when he came out he was not able to say anything, and they saw that he had seen a vision in the Temple; and he was making signs to them without words.

bbe@Luke:1:28 @And the angel came in to her and said, Peace be with you, to whom special grace has been given; the Lord is with you.

bbe@Luke:1:35 @And the angel in answer said to her, The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will come to rest on you, and so that which will come to birth will be named holy, Son of God.

bbe@Luke:1:36 @Even now Elisabeth, who is of your family, is to be a mother, though she is old: and this is the sixth month with her who was without children.

bbe@Luke:1:38 @And Mary said: I am the servant of the Lord; may it be to me as you say. And the angel went away.

bbe@Luke:1:41 @And when the voice of Mary came to the ears of Elisabeth, the baby made a sudden move inside her; then Elisabeth was full of the Holy Spirit,

bbe@Luke:1:42 @And she said with a loud voice: May blessing be on you among women, and a blessing on the child of your body.

bbe@Luke:1:43 @How is it that the mother of my Lord comes to me?

bbe@Luke:1:45 @Happy will she be who had faith that the things which the Lord has said to her will be done.

bbe@Luke:1:47 @My spirit is glad in God my Saviour.

bbe@Luke:1:48 @For he has had pity on his servant, though she is poor and lowly placed: and from this hour will all generations give witness to the blessing which has come to me.

bbe@Luke:1:51 @With his arm he has done acts of power; he has put to flight those who have pride in their hearts.

bbe@Luke:1:53 @Those who had no food he made full of good things; the men of wealth he sent away with nothing in their hands;

bbe@Luke:1:56 @And Mary was with her for about three months and then went back to her house.

bbe@Luke:1:57 @Now it was time for Elisabeth to give birth, and she had a son.

bbe@Luke:1:58 @And it came to the ears of her neighbours and relations that the Lord had been very good to her, and they took part in her joy.

bbe@Luke:1:63 @And he sent for writing materials and put down: His name is John; and they were all surprised.

bbe@Luke:1:66 @And all who had word of them kept them in their minds and said, What will this child be? For the hand of the Lord was with him.

bbe@Luke:1:67 @And his father, Zacharias, was full of the Holy Spirit, and with the voice of a prophet said these words:

bbe@Luke:1:80 @And the child became tall, and strong in spirit; and he was living in the waste land till the day when he came before the eyes of Israel.

bbe@Luke:2:1 @Now it came about in those days that an order went out from Caesar Augustus that there was to be a numbering of all the world.

bbe@Luke:2:5 @To be put on the list with Mary, his future wife, who was about to become a mother.

bbe@Luke:2:13 @And suddenly there was with the angel a great band of spirits from heaven, giving praise to God, and saying,

bbe@Luke:2:14 @Glory to God in the highest, and on the earth peace among men with whom he is well pleased.

bbe@Luke:2:17 @And when they saw it, they gave them an account of the things which had been said to them about the child.

bbe@Luke:2:18 @And all those to whose ears it came were full of wonder at the things said by the keepers of the sheep.

bbe@Luke:2:20 @Then the keepers of the sheep went back, giving glory and praise to God for all the things which had come to their ears and which they had seen, as it had been said to them.

bbe@Luke:2:23 @(As it says in the law of the Lord, Every mother's first male child is to be holy to the Lord),

bbe@Luke:2:24 @And to make an offering, as it is ordered in the law of the Lord, of two doves or other young birds.

bbe@Luke:2:25 @And there was then in Jerusalem a man whose name was Simeon; and he was an upright man, fearing God and waiting for the comfort of Israel: and the Holy Spirit was on him.

bbe@Luke:2:26 @And he had knowledge, through the Holy Spirit, that he would not see death till he had seen the Lord's Christ.

bbe@Luke:2:27 @And full of the Spirit he came into the Temple; and when the father and mother came in with the child Jesus, to do with him what was ordered by the law,

bbe@Luke:2:37 @She had been a widow for eighty-four years); she was in the Temple at all times, worshipping with prayers and going without food, night and day.

bbe@Luke:2:38 @And coming up at that time, she gave praise to God, talking of him to all those who were waiting for the freeing of Jerusalem.

bbe@Luke:2:43 @And when the days of the feast came to an end and they were going back, the boy Jesus was still in Jerusalem, but they had no knowledge of it:

bbe@Luke:2:44 @And in the belief that he was with some of their number, they went a day's journey; and after looking for him among their relations and friends,

bbe@Luke:2:47 @And all to whose ears it came were full of wonder at his knowledge and the answers which he gave.

bbe@Luke:2:48 @And when they saw him they were surprised, and his mother said to him, Son, why have you done this to us? see, your father and I have been looking for you with sorrow.

bbe@Luke:2:49 @And he said to them, Why were you looking for me? was it not clear to you that my right place was in my Father's house?

bbe@Luke:2:51 @And he went down with them and came to Nazareth; and did as he was ordered: and his mother kept all these words in her heart.

bbe@Luke:3:1 @Now in the fifteenth year of the rule of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being ruler of Judaea, and Herod being king of Galilee, his brother Philip king of the country of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias king of Abilene,

bbe@Luke:3:4 @As it says in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, The voice of one crying in the waste land, Make ready the way of the Lord, make his roads straight.

bbe@Luke:3:9 @And even now the axe is put to the root of the trees; and every tree which does not have good fruit will be cut down and put into the fire.

bbe@Luke:3:14 @And men of the army put questions to him, saying, And what have we to do? And he said to them, Do no violent acts to any man, and do not take anything without right, and let your payment be enough for you.

bbe@Luke:3:15 @And while the people were waiting, and all men were questioning in their hearts about John, if he was the Christ or not,

bbe@Luke:3:16 @John made answer, saying to them all, Truly, I give you baptism with water, but one is coming who is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo: he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit, and with fire:

bbe@Luke:3:17 @In whose hand is the instrument with which he will make clean his grain; he will put the good grain in his store, but the waste will be burned in the fire which will never be put out.

bbe@Luke:3:18 @And so comforting them with these and other words, he gave the good news to the people;

bbe@Luke:3:21 @Now it came about that when all the people had been given baptism, Jesus, having had baptism with them, was in prayer, when, the heaven being open,

bbe@Luke:3:22 @The Holy Spirit came down in the form of a dove, and a voice came from heaven, saying, You are my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.

bbe@Luke:3:23 @And Jesus at this time was about thirty years old, being the son (as it seemed) of Joseph, the son of Heli,

bbe@Luke:4:1 @And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, came back from the Jordan, and was guided by the Spirit in the waste land

bbe@Luke:4:4 @And Jesus made answer to him, It has been said in the Writings, Bread is not man's only need.

bbe@Luke:4:6 @And the Evil One said, I will give you authority over all these, and the glory of them, for it has been given to me, and I give it to anyone at my pleasure.

bbe@Luke:4:7 @If then you will give worship to me, it will all be yours.

bbe@Luke:4:8 @And Jesus in answer said to him, It has been said in the Writings, Give worship to the Lord your God, and be his servant only.

bbe@Luke:4:9 @And he took him to Jerusalem and put him on the highest point of the Temple and said to him, If you are the Son of God, let yourself go down from here; for it is said in the Writings,

bbe@Luke:4:12 @And Jesus made answer and said to him, It is said in the Writings, You may not put the Lord your God to the test.

bbe@Luke:4:14 @And Jesus came back to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and the news of him went through all the country round about.

bbe@Luke:4:17 @And the book of the prophet Isaiah was given to him and, opening the book, he came on the place where it is said,

bbe@Luke:4:18 @The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because I am marked out by him to give good news to the poor; he has sent me to make well those who are broken-hearted; to say that the prisoners will be let go, and the blind will see, and to make the wounded free from their chains,

bbe@Luke:4:20 @And shutting the book he gave it back to the servant and took his seat: and the eyes of all in the Synagogue were fixed on him.

bbe@Luke:4:22 @And they were all giving witness, with wonder, to the words of grace which came from his mouth: and they said, Is not this the son of Joseph?

bbe@Luke:4:23 @And he said to them, Without doubt you will say to me, Let the medical man make himself well: the things which to our knowledge were done at Capernaum, do them here in your country.

bbe@Luke:4:32 @And they were surprised at his teaching, for his word was with authority.

bbe@Luke:4:33 @And there was a man in the Synagogue who had an unclean spirit; and he gave a loud cry and said,

bbe@Luke:4:34 @Let us be! what have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? have you come to put an end to us? I have knowledge who you are, the Holy One of God.

bbe@Luke:4:35 @And Jesus said to him, Be quiet, and come out of him. And when the evil spirit had put him down on the earth in the middle of them, he came out of him, having done him no damage.

bbe@Luke:4:36 @And wonder came on them all and they said to one another, What are these words? for with authority and power he gives orders to the evil spirits and they come out.

bbe@Luke:4:38 @And he got up and went out of the Synagogue and went into the house of Simon. And Simon's wife's mother was very ill with a burning heat; and in answer to their prayers for her

bbe@Luke:4:39 @He went near her, and with a sharp word he gave orders to the disease and it went away from her; and straight away she got up and took care of their needs.

bbe@Luke:4:40 @And at sundown all those who had anyone ill with any sort of disease, took them to him, and he put his hands on every one of them and made them well.

bbe@Luke:4:41 @And evil spirits came out of a number of them, crying out and saying, You are the Son of God. But he gave them sharp orders not to say a word, because they had knowledge that he was the Christ.

bbe@Luke:4:42 @And when it was day, he came out and went to a waste place; and great numbers of people came looking for him, and they came to him and would have kept him from going away.

bbe@Luke:5:1 @Now it came about that while the people came pushing to be near him, and to have knowledge of the word of God, he was by a wide stretch of water named Gennesaret;

bbe@Luke:5:3 @And he got into one of the boats, the property of Simon, and made a request to him to go a little way out from the land. And being seated he gave the people teaching from the boat.

bbe@Luke:5:6 @And when they had done this, they got such a great number of fish that it seemed as if their nets would be broken;

bbe@Luke:5:8 @But Simon, when he saw it, went down at the knees of Jesus and said, Go away from me, O Lord, for I am a sinner.

bbe@Luke:5:9 @For he was full of wonder and so were all those who were with him, at the number of fish which they had taken;

bbe@Luke:5:10 @And so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were working with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Have no fear; from this time forward you will be a fisher of men.

bbe@Luke:5:12 @And it came about that while he was in one of the towns, there was a leper there: and when he saw Jesus he went down on his face in prayer to him, saying, Lord, if it is your pleasure, you have power to make me clean

bbe@Luke:5:13 @And he put out his hand to him and said, It is my pleasure; be clean. And straight away his disease went from him.

bbe@Luke:5:14 @And he gave him orders: Say nothing to any man, but let the priest see you and give an offering so that you may be made clean, as the law of Moses says, and for a witness to them.

bbe@Luke:5:17 @And it came about that on one of these days he was teaching; and some Pharisees and teachers of the law were seated there, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was with him, to make those who were ill free from their diseases.

bbe@Luke:5:18 @And some men had with them, on a bed, a man who was ill, without power of moving; and they made attempts to get him in and put him before Jesus.

bbe@Luke:5:20 @And seeing their faith he said, Man, you have forgiveness for your sins.

bbe@Luke:5:24 @But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (he said to the man who was ill,) I say to you, Get up, and take up your bed, and go into your house.

bbe@Luke:5:29 @And Levi made a great feast for him in his house: and a great number of tax-farmers and others were seated at table with them.

bbe@Luke:5:30 @And the Pharisees and their scribes made protests against his disciples, saying, Why do you take food and drink with tax-farmers and sinners?

bbe@Luke:5:33 @And they said to him, The disciples of John frequently go without food, and make prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees; but your disciples take food and drink.

bbe@Luke:5:34 @And Jesus said, Are you able to make the friends of the newly-married man go without food when he is with them?

bbe@Luke:5:35 @But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.

bbe@Luke:5:36 @And he said to them, in a story, No man takes a bit of cloth from a new coat and puts it on to an old coat, for so the new coat would be damaged and the bit from the new would not go well with the old.

bbe@Luke:6:1 @Now it came about that on the Sabbath he was going through the fields of grain, and his disciples took the heads of the grain for food, crushing them in their hands.

bbe@Luke:6:2 @But some of the Pharisees said, Why do you do what it is not right to do on the Sabbath?

bbe@Luke:6:3 @And Jesus said, Have you not seen in the Writings what David did when he was in need of food, he, and those who were with him;

bbe@Luke:6:4 @How he went into the house of God and took for food the holy bread, which only the priests may take, and gave it to those who were with him?

bbe@Luke:6:6 @And it came about, on another Sabbath, that he went into the Synagogue and was teaching there. And a man was there whose right hand was dead.

bbe@Luke:6:9 @And Jesus said, I put the question to you, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to take it away?

bbe@Luke:6:12 @And it came about in those days that he went out to the mountain for prayer; and he was all night in prayer to God.

bbe@Luke:6:17 @And he came down with them to a level place, and a great band of his disciples, and a very great number of people from all Judaea and Jerusalem and from the parts of Tyre and Sidon by the sea, came to give hearing to him, and to be made well from their diseases;

bbe@Luke:6:18 @And those who were troubled with unclean spirits were made well.

bbe@Luke:6:30 @Give to everyone who comes with a request, and if a man takes away your property, make no attempt to get it back again.

bbe@Luke:6:32 @If you have love for those who have love for you, what credit is it to you? for even sinners have love for those who have love for them.

bbe@Luke:6:33 @And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is it to you? for even sinners do the same.

bbe@Luke:6:34 @And if you let those have the use of your money, from whom you are hoping to get it back, what credit is it to you? even sinners do so to sinners, hoping to get back as much as they gave.

bbe@Luke:6:36 @Be full of pity, even as your Father is full of pity.

bbe@Luke:6:38 @Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, crushed down, full and running over, they will give to you. For in the same measure as you give, it will be given to you again.

bbe@Luke:6:39 @And he gave them teaching in the form of a story, saying, Is it possible for one blind man to be guide to another? will they not go falling together into a hole?

bbe@Luke:6:41 @And why do you take note of the grain of dust in your brother's eye, but take no note of the bit of wood which is in your eye?

bbe@Luke:6:42 @How will you say to your brother, Brother, let me take the grain of dust out of your eye, when you yourself do not see the bit of wood in your eye? O false one! first take the wood out of your eye and then you will see clearly to take the dust out of your brother's eye.

bbe@Luke:6:43 @For no good tree gives bad fruit, and no bad tree gives good fruit.

bbe@Luke:6:44 @For every tree is judged by its fruit. Men do not get figs from thorns, or grapes from blackberry plants.

bbe@Luke:6:48 @He is like a man building a house, who went deep and put the base of it on a rock; and when the water came up and the river was driving against that house, it was not moved, because the building was good.

bbe@Luke:6:49 @But he who gives hearing, without doing, is like a man building a house on the earth without a base for it; and when the force of the river came against it, straight away it came down; and the destruction of that house was great.

bbe@Luke:7:5 @It is right for you to do this for him, because he is a friend to our nation, and himself has put up a Synagogue for us.

bbe@Luke:7:6 @And Jesus went with them. And when he was not far from the house, the man sent friends to him, saying, Lord, do not give yourself trouble: for I am not important enough for you to come into my house:

bbe@Luke:7:8 @For I, myself, am a man under authority, having men under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.

bbe@Luke:7:9 @And when these things were said to Jesus, he was surprised, and, turning to the mass of people coming after him, said, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.

bbe@Luke:7:11 @And it came about, after a little time, that he went to a town named Nain; and his disciples went with him, and a great number of people.

bbe@Luke:7:12 @Now when he came near the door of the town, a dead man was being taken out, the only son of his mother, who was a widow: and a great number of people from the town were with her.

bbe@Luke:7:13 @And when the Lord saw her, he had pity on her and said to her, Be not sad.

bbe@Luke:7:14 @And he came near, and put his hand on the stretcher where the dead man was: and those who were moving it came to a stop. And he said, Young man, I say to you, Get up.

bbe@Luke:7:19 @Then John sent two of his disciples to the Lord, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

bbe@Luke:7:20 @And when the men came to him they said, John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?

bbe@Luke:7:21 @At that time, he made a number of people free from their diseases and their pains, and from evil spirits; and to others who were blind he gave back the use of their eyes.

bbe@Luke:7:27 @This is he of whom it has been said, See, I send my servant before your face, who will make ready your way before you.

bbe@Luke:7:33 @For John the Baptist came, taking no food or drink, and you say, He has an evil spirit.

bbe@Luke:7:36 @And one of the Pharisees made a request that he would take a meal with him. And he went into the Pharisee's house and took his seat at the table.

bbe@Luke:7:38 @And went in and took her place at the back of him, near his feet, weeping, so that his feet were washed with the drops from her eyes, and with her hair she made them dry, and kissing his feet she put the perfume on them.

bbe@Luke:7:39 @Now when the Pharisee in whose house he was saw it, he said to himself, This man, if he was a prophet, would be conscious what sort of woman this is who has put her hands on him, that she is a sinner.

bbe@Luke:7:43 @Simon, in answer, said, It seems he whose debt was greater. And he said, Your decision is right.

bbe@Luke:7:44 @And turning to the woman he said to Simon, You see this woman? I came into your house; you did not give me water for my feet: but she has been washing my feet with the drops from her eyes, and drying them with her hair.

bbe@Luke:7:47 @And so I say to you, She will have forgiveness for her sins which are great in number, because of her great love: but he who has small need of forgiveness gives little love.

bbe@Luke:7:49 @And those who were seated at table with him said to themselves, Who is this who even gives forgiveness of sins?

bbe@Luke:7:50 @And he said to the woman, By your faith you have salvation; go in peace.

bbe@Luke:8:1 @And it came about, after a short time, that he went through town and country giving the good news of the kingdom of God, and with him were the twelve,

bbe@Luke:8:2 @And certain women who had been made free from evil spirits and diseases, Mary named Magdalene, from whom seven evil spirits had gone out,

bbe@Luke:8:5 @A man went out to put in seed, and while he was doing it, some was dropped by the wayside and it was crushed under foot, and was taken by the birds of heaven.

bbe@Luke:8:6 @And some went on the rock, and when it came up it became dry and dead because it had no water.

bbe@Luke:8:7 @And some went among thorns, and the thorns came up with it and it had no room for growth.

bbe@Luke:8:8 @And some falling on good earth, came up and gave fruit a hundred times as much. And with these words he said in a loud voice, He who has ears, let him give ear.

bbe@Luke:8:12 @Those by the side of the road are those who have given hearing; then the Evil One comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not have faith and get salvation.

bbe@Luke:8:13 @And those on the rock are those who with joy give hearing to the word; but having no root, they have faith for a time, and when the test comes they give up.

bbe@Luke:8:14 @And those which went among thorns are those who have given hearing, and go on their way, but they are overcome by cares and wealth and the pleasures of life, and they give no fruit.

bbe@Luke:8:15 @And those in the good earth are those who, having given ear to the word, keep it with a good and true heart, and in quiet strength give fruit.

bbe@Luke:8:16 @No man, when the light is lighted, puts a cover over it, or puts it under a bed, but he puts it on its table, so that those who come in may see the light.

bbe@Luke:8:21 @But he said to them in answer, My mother and my brothers are those who have knowledge of the word of God and do it.

bbe@Luke:8:22 @Now it came about on one of those days that he got into a boat with his disciples; and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the water: and they put out the boat.

bbe@Luke:8:25 @And he said to them, Where is your faith? And fear and wonder overcame them, and they said to one another, Who then is this, who gives orders even to the winds and the water and they do what he says?

bbe@Luke:8:26 @And they came to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.

bbe@Luke:8:27 @And when he had come to the land, there came to him a certain man from the town who had evil spirits; and for a long time he had had no clothing on, and was not living in a house but in the place of the dead.

bbe@Luke:8:28 @And when he saw Jesus, he gave a loud cry and went down on the earth before him and in a loud voice said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Do not be cruel to me.

bbe@Luke:8:29 @For he gave an order to the evil spirit to come out of the man. For frequently it would take a grip of him: and he was kept under control, and prisoned with chains; but parting the chains in two, he would be sent by the driving of the evil spirit into waste places.

bbe@Luke:8:30 @And Jesus said to him, What is your name? And he said, Legion; for a number of spirits had gone into him.

bbe@Luke:8:32 @Now there was a great herd of pigs in that place, getting food on the mountain: and the evil spirits made a request to him that he would let them go into the pigs, and he let them.

bbe@Luke:8:33 @And the evil spirits came out of the man and went into the pigs: and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the water and came to destruction.

bbe@Luke:8:34 @And when the men who took care of them saw what had come about, they went quickly and gave news of it in the town and the country.

bbe@Luke:8:35 @And they went out to see what had taken place, and they came to Jesus and saw the man out of whom the evil spirits had gone, seated, clothed and with full use of his senses, at the feet of Jesus; and fear came on them.

bbe@Luke:8:36 @And those who had seen it gave them an account of how the man who had the evil spirits was made well.

bbe@Luke:8:38 @But the man from whom the evil spirits had gone out had a great desire to be with him, but he sent him away, saying,

bbe@Luke:8:40 @And when Jesus went back, the people were glad to see him, for they were all waiting for him.

bbe@Luke:8:45 @And Jesus said, Who was touching me? And when they all said, It is not I, Peter and those who were with him said, Master, the people are pushing round you on every side.

bbe@Luke:8:47 @And when the woman saw that she was not able to keep it secret, she came, shaking with fear, and falling down before him she made clear before all the people the reason for her touching him, and how she was made well straight away.

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

bbe@Luke:8:50 @But Jesus at these words said to him, Have no fear, only have faith, and she will be made well.

bbe@Luke:8:51 @And when he came to the house he did not let any man go in with him, but only Peter and John and James, and the father of the girl and her mother.

bbe@Luke:8:55 @And her spirit came back to her and she got up straight away: and he gave orders that food was to be given to her.

bbe@Luke:8:56 @And her father and mother were full of wonder, but he gave orders to them to say nothing about it to anyone.

bbe@Luke:9:1 @And getting the twelve together, he gave them power and authority over all evil spirits and over diseases, to make them well.

bbe@Luke:9:5 @And if any people will not take you in, when you go away from that town, put off its dust from your feet for a witness against them.

bbe@Luke:9:7 @Now Herod the king had news of all these things: and he was in doubt, because it was said by some people that John had come back from the dead;

bbe@Luke:9:10 @And the twelve, when they came back, gave him an account of what they had done. And he took them with him and went away from the people to a town named Beth-saida.

bbe@Luke:9:11 @But the people, getting news of it, went after him: and he was pleased to see them, and gave them teaching about the kingdom of God, and made those well who were in need of it.

bbe@Luke:9:17 @And they all took the food and had enough; and they took up of the broken bits which were over, twelve baskets full.

bbe@Luke:9:18 @And it came about that when he was in prayer, by himself, and the disciples were with him, he put a question to them, saying, Who do the people say I am?

bbe@Luke:9:24 @For whoever has a desire to keep his life will have it taken from him, but whoever gives up his life because of me, will keep it.

bbe@Luke:9:25 @For what profit will a man have if he gets all the world, but undergoes loss or destruction himself?

bbe@Luke:9:28 @And about eight days after he had said these things, he took Peter and John and James with him and went up into the mountain for prayer.

bbe@Luke:9:29 @And while he was in prayer, his face was changed and his clothing became white and shining.

bbe@Luke:9:30 @And two men, Moses and Elijah, were talking with him;

bbe@Luke:9:32 @Now Peter and those who were with him were overcome with sleep: but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory and the two men who were with him.

bbe@Luke:9:33 @And when they were about to go away from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah: having no knowledge of what he was saying.

bbe@Luke:9:39 @And see, a spirit takes him, and suddenly he gives a cry, twisted in pain and streaming at the lips, and when it goes away from him at last, he is marked as from blows.

bbe@Luke:9:40 @And I made a request to your disciples to send it out of him, but they were not able to do it.

bbe@Luke:9:41 @And Jesus said, O generation without faith and false in heart, how long will I have to be with you and put up with you? let your son come here.

bbe@Luke:9:42 @And while he was coming, he was pushed violently down and twisted by the evil spirit. But Jesus gave sharp orders to the unclean spirit, and made the boy well, and gave him back to his father.

bbe@Luke:9:45 @But this saying was not clear to them and its sense was kept secret from them so that they were not able to see it: and they had fear of questioning him about it.

bbe@Luke:9:49 @And John, answering, said, Master, we saw a man driving out evil spirits in your name, and we did not let him do it, because he was not one of us.

bbe@Luke:9:50 @But Jesus said to him, Let him do it, for he who is not against you is for you.

bbe@Luke:9:51 @And it came about that when the days were near for him to be taken up, his face was turned to go to Jerusalem,

bbe@Luke:9:60 @But he said to him, Let the dead take care of their dead; it is for you to go and give news of the kingdom of God.

bbe@Luke:9:61 @And another man said, I will come with you, Lord, but first let me say a last good-day to those who are at my house.

bbe@Luke:10:6 @And if a son of peace is there, your peace will be with him: but if not, it will come back to you again.

bbe@Luke:10:9 @And make well those in it who are ill and say to them, The kingdom of God is near to you

bbe@Luke:10:10 @But if you go into a town where they will not have you, go out into the streets of it and say,

bbe@Luke:10:11 @Even the dust of your town, which is on our feet, we put off as a witness against you; but be certain of this, that the kingdom of God is near.

bbe@Luke:10:12 @I say to you, It will be better in that day for Sodom than for that town.

bbe@Luke:10:14 @But it will be better for Tyre and Sidon, in the day of judging, than for you.

bbe@Luke:10:17 @And the seventy came back with joy, saying, Lord, even the evil spirits are under our power in your name.

bbe@Luke:10:20 @Do not be glad, however, because you have power over spirits, but because your names are recorded in heaven.

bbe@Luke:10:21 @In that same hour he was full of joy in the Holy Spirit and said, I give praise to you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have kept these things secret from the wise and the men of learning, and have made them clear to little children: for so, O Father, it was pleasing in your eyes.

bbe@Luke:10:22 @All things have been given to me by my Father: and no one has knowledge of the Son, but only the Father: and of the Father, but only the Son, and he to whom the Son will make it clear.

bbe@Luke:10:24 @For I say to you that numbers of prophets and kings have had a desire to see the things which you see, and have not seen them, and to have knowledge of the things which have come to your ears, and they had it not.

bbe@Luke:10:26 @And he said to him, What does the law say, in your reading of it?

bbe@Luke:10:27 @And he, answering, said, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and for your neighbour as for yourself.

bbe@Luke:10:32 @And in the same way, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, went by on the other side.

bbe@Luke:10:33 @But a certain man of Samaria, journeying that way, came where he was, and when he saw him, he was moved with pity for him,

bbe@Luke:10:34 @And came to him and put clean linen round his wounds, with oil and wine; and he put him on his beast and took him to a house and took care of him.

bbe@Luke:10:40 @But Martha had her hands full of the work of the house, and she came to him and said, Lord, is it nothing to you that my sister has let me do all the work? Say to her that she is to give me some help.

bbe@Luke:10:42 @Little is needed, or even one thing only: for Mary has taken that good part, which will not be taken away from her.

bbe@Luke:11:1 @And it came about that he was in prayer in a certain place, and when he came to an end, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, will you give us teaching about prayer, as John did to his disciples?

bbe@Luke:11:7 @And he, from inside the house, would say in answer, Do not be a trouble to me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; it is not possible for me to get up and give to you?

bbe@Luke:11:10 @For to everyone who makes a request, it will be given; and he who is searching will get his desire; and to him who gives the sign, the door will be open.

bbe@Luke:11:13 @If, then, you who are evil are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who make request to him?

bbe@Luke:11:14 @And he was sending an evil spirit out of a man who was without the power of talking. And it came about that when the spirit had gone the man had the power of talking; and the people were full of wonder.

bbe@Luke:11:15 @But some of them said, He sends out evil spirits by Beelzebul, the ruler of evil spirits.

bbe@Luke:11:18 @If, then, Satan is at war with himself, how will he keep his kingdom? because you say that I send evil spirits out of men by the help of Beelzebul.

bbe@Luke:11:19 @And if I, by Beelzebul, send out evil spirits, by whose help do your sons send them out? so let them be your judges.

bbe@Luke:11:20 @But if I, by the finger of God, send out evil spirits, then the kingdom of God has overtaken you.

bbe@Luke:11:22 @But when one who is stronger makes an attack on him and overcomes him, he takes away his instruments of war, in which he had put his faith, and makes division of his goods.

bbe@Luke:11:23 @He who is not with me is against me, and he who will not give me help in getting people together is driving them away.

bbe@Luke:11:24 @The unclean spirit, when he has gone out of a man, goes through dry places, looking for rest; and when he does not get it, he says, I will go back to my house from which I came.

bbe@Luke:11:25 @And when he comes, he sees that it has been made fair and clean.

bbe@Luke:11:26 @Then he goes and gets seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they go in, and take their places there: and the last condition of that man is worse than the first.

bbe@Luke:11:27 @And it came about that when he said these things, a certain woman among the people said in a loud voice, Happy is the body which gave you birth, and the breasts from which you took milk.

bbe@Luke:11:28 @But he said, More happy are they who give hearing to the word of God and keep it.

bbe@Luke:11:29 @And when a great number of people came together to him, he said, This generation is an evil generation: it is looking for a sign and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah.

bbe@Luke:11:30 @For even as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so will the Son of man be to this generation.

bbe@Luke:11:33 @No man, when the light has been lighted, puts it in a secret place, or under a vessel, but on its table, so that those who come in may see the light.

bbe@Luke:11:34 @The light of the body is the eye: when your eye is true, all your body is full of light; but when it is evil, your body is dark.

bbe@Luke:11:36 @If, then, all your body is light, with no part of it dark, it will be completely full of light, as when a flame with its bright shining gives you light.

bbe@Luke:11:37 @Now, while he was talking, a Pharisee made a request that he would come to a meal with him; and he went in and took his seat at the meal.

bbe@Luke:11:38 @And when the Pharisee saw it, he was surprised because he came to the meal without first washing himself.

bbe@Luke:11:42 @But a curse is on you, Pharisees! for you make men give a tenth of every sort of plant, and give no thought to right and the love of God; but it is right for you to do these things, and not let the others be undone.

bbe@Luke:11:44 @A curse is on you! for you are like the resting-places of dead men, which are not seen, and men go walking over them without knowledge of it.

bbe@Luke:11:48 @So you are witnesses and give approval to the work of your fathers; for they put them to death and you make their last resting-places.

bbe@Luke:11:51 @From the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who was put to death between the altar and the Temple. Yes, I say to you, It will come on this generation.

bbe@Luke:12:1 @At that time, when thousands of the people had come together, in such numbers that they were crushing one another, he said first to his disciples, Have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees, which is deceit.

bbe@Luke:12:8 @And I say to you that to everyone who gives witness to me before men, the Son of man will give witness before the angels of God.

bbe@Luke:12:10 @And if anyone says a word against the Son of man, he will have forgiveness: but for him who says evil words against the Holy Spirit, there will be no forgiveness.

bbe@Luke:12:11 @And when they take you before the Synagogues and the authorities and the rulers, take no thought about what answers you will give, or what you will say:

bbe@Luke:12:12 @For the Holy Spirit will make clear to you in that very hour what to say.

bbe@Luke:12:13 @And one of the people said to him, Master, give an order to my brother to make division of the heritage with me

bbe@Luke:12:17 @And he said to himself, What is to be done? for I have no place in which to put all my fruit.

bbe@Luke:12:22 @And he said to his disciples, For this reason I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about what food you will take, or for your body, how it may be clothed.

bbe@Luke:12:23 @Is not life more than food, and the body than its clothing?

bbe@Luke:12:28 @But if God gives such clothing to the grass in the field, which today is living, and tomorrow will be burned in the oven, how much more will he give clothing to you, O men of little faith?

bbe@Luke:12:31 @But let your chief care be for his kingdom, and these other things will be given to you in addition.

bbe@Luke:12:32 @Have no fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

bbe@Luke:12:33 @Give what property you have in exchange for money, and give the money to the poor; make for yourselves money-bags which will not get old, wealth stored up in heaven which will be yours for ever, where thieves will not come nor worms put it to destruction.

bbe@Luke:12:35 @Be ready, dressed as for a journey, with your lights burning.

bbe@Luke:12:36 @And be like men who are looking for their lord, when he comes back from the bride-feast; so that when he comes to the door, it will be open to him quickly.

bbe@Luke:12:46 @The lord of that servant will come at a time when he is not looking for him, and at an hour when he is not ready for him, and he will have him cut in two and will give him his part in the fate of those who have no faith;

bbe@Luke:12:48 @But he who, without knowledge, did things for which punishment is given, will get only a small number of blows. The man to whom much is given, will have to give much; if much is given into his care, of him more will be requested.

bbe@Luke:12:49 @I came to send a fire on the earth, and it may even now have been lighted.

bbe@Luke:12:50 @But there is a baptism which I have to undergo; and how am I kept back till it is complete!

bbe@Luke:12:51 @Is it your opinion that I have come to give peace on earth? I say to you, No, but division:

bbe@Luke:12:52 @For from this time, a family of five in one house will be on opposite sides, three against two and two against three.

bbe@Luke:12:54 @Then he said to the people, When you see a cloud coming up in the west, straight away you say, There will be rain; and so it is.

bbe@Luke:12:55 @And when you see a south wind blowing, you say, There will be heat; and so it is.

bbe@Luke:12:56 @O false ones! the face of the earth and the heaven is clear to you; how is it that the signs of these times are not as clear to you?

bbe@Luke:12:58 @For if anyone has a cause at law against you, and you are going with him before the ruler, make an attempt, on the way, to come to an agreement with him, for if you do not, he may take you before the judge and the judge will give you up to the police, and they will put you in prison.

bbe@Luke:12:59 @I say to you, You will not come out of it till you have made payment to the very last farthing.

bbe@Luke:13:1 @Now some people who were there at that time, gave him an account of how the blood of some Galilaeans had been mixed by Pilate with their offerings.

bbe@Luke:13:3 @I say to you, It is not so: but if your hearts are not changed, you will all come to the same end.

bbe@Luke:13:5 @I say to you, It is not so: but if your hearts are not changed, you will all come to an end in the same way.

bbe@Luke:13:6 @And he made up this story for them: A certain man had a fig-tree in his garden, and he came to get fruit from it, and there was no fruit.

bbe@Luke:13:7 @And he said to the gardener, See, for three years I have been looking for fruit from this tree, and I have not had any: let it be cut down; why is it taking up space?

bbe@Luke:13:8 @And he said, Lord, let it be for this year, and I will have the earth turned up round it, and put animal waste on it, to make it fertile:

bbe@Luke:13:9 @And if, after that, it has fruit, it is well; if not, let it be cut down.

bbe@Luke:13:15 @But the Lord gave him an answer and said, O you false men! do you not, every one of you, on the Sabbath, let loose his ox and his ass and take it to the water?

bbe@Luke:13:16 @And is it not right for this daughter of Abraham, who has been in the power of Satan for eighteen years, to be made free on the Sabbath?

bbe@Luke:13:18 @Then he said, What is the kingdom of God like? what comparison may I make of it?

bbe@Luke:13:19 @It is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his garden, and it became a tree, and the birds of heaven made their resting-places in its branches.

bbe@Luke:13:21 @It is like leaven, which a woman put into three measures of meal, and it was all leavened.

bbe@Luke:13:26 @Then you will say, We have taken food and drink with you, and you were teaching in our streets.

bbe@Luke:13:32 @And he said, Go and say to that fox, I send out evil spirits and do works of mercy today and tomorrow, and on the third day my work will be complete.

bbe@Luke:13:33 @But I have to go on my way today and tomorrow and the third day, for it is not right for a prophet to come to his death outside Jerusalem.

bbe@Luke:14:1 @And it came about that when he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees on the Sabbath, to have a meal, they were watching him.

bbe@Luke:14:3 @And Jesus, answering, said to the scribes and Pharisees, Is it right to make people well on the Sabbath or not?

bbe@Luke:14:9 @And then the giver of the feast will come to you and say, Give your place to this man; and you, with shame, will have to take the lowest seat.

bbe@Luke:14:15 @And, hearing these words, one of those who were at table with him said to him, Happy is the man who will be a guest in the kingdom of God.

bbe@Luke:14:16 @And he said to them, A certain man gave a great feast, and sent word of it to a number of people.

bbe@Luke:14:18 @And they all gave reasons why they were not able to come. The first said to him, I have got a new field, and it is necessary for me to go and see it: I am full of regret that I am unable to come.

bbe@Luke:14:25 @Now a great number of people went with him.

bbe@Luke:14:28 @For which of you, desiring to put up a tower, does not first give much thought to the price, if he will have enough to make it complete?

bbe@Luke:14:29 @For fear that if he makes a start and is not able to go on with it to the end, all who see it will be laughing at him,

bbe@Luke:14:30 @And saying, This man made a start at building and is not able to make it complete.

bbe@Luke:14:31 @Or what king, going to war with another king, will not first take thought if he will be strong enough, with ten thousand men, to keep off him who comes against him with twenty thousand?

bbe@Luke:14:32 @Or while the other is still a great distance away, he sends representatives requesting conditions of peace.

bbe@Luke:14:34 @For salt is good, but if the taste goes from it, of what use is it?

bbe@Luke:14:35 @It is no good for the land or for the place of waste; no one has a use for it. He who has ears, let him give ear.

bbe@Luke:15:2 @And the Pharisees and scribes were angry, saying, This man gives approval to sinners, and takes food with them.

bbe@Luke:15:4 @What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if one of them gets loose and goes away, will not let the ninety-nine be in the waste land by themselves, and go after the wandering one, till he sees where it is?

bbe@Luke:15:5 @And when he has got it again, he takes it in his arms with joy.

bbe@Luke:15:6 @And when he gets back to his house, he sends for his neighbours and friends, saying to them, Be glad with me, for I have got back my sheep which had gone away.

bbe@Luke:15:8 @Or what woman, having ten bits of silver, if one bit has gone from her hands, will not get a light, and go through her house, searching with care till she sees it?

bbe@Luke:15:9 @And when she has it again, she gets her friends and neighbours together, saying, Be glad with me, for I have got back the bit of silver which had gone from me.

bbe@Luke:15:20 @And he got up and went to his father. But while he was still far away, his father saw him and was moved with pity for him and went quickly and took him in his arms and gave him a kiss.

bbe@Luke:15:22 @But the father said to his servants, Get out the first robe quickly, and put it on him, and put a ring on his hand and shoes on his feet:

bbe@Luke:15:23 @And get the fat young ox and put it to death, and let us have a feast, and be glad.

bbe@Luke:15:26 @And he sent for one of the servants, questioning him about what it might be.

bbe@Luke:15:29 @But he made answer and said to his father, See, all these years I have been your servant, doing your orders in everything: and you never gave me even a young goat so that I might have a feast with my friends:

bbe@Luke:15:30 @But when this your son came, who has been wasting your property with bad women, you put to death the fat young ox for him.

bbe@Luke:15:31 @And he said to him, Son, you are with me at all times, and all I have is yours.

bbe@Luke:15:32 @But it was right to be glad and to have a feast; for this your brother, who was dead, is living again; he had gone away and has come back.

bbe@Luke:16:1 @And another time he said to the disciples, There was a certain man of great wealth who had a servant; and it was said to him that this servant was wasting his goods.

bbe@Luke:16:3 @And the servant said to himself, What am I to do now that my lord takes away my position? I have not enough strength for working in the fields, and I would be shamed if I made requests for money from people in the streets.

bbe@Luke:16:4 @I have come to a decision what to do, so that when I am put out of my position they will take me into their houses.

bbe@Luke:16:8 @And his lord was pleased with the false servant, because he had been wise; for the sons of this world are wiser in relation to their generation than the sons of light.

bbe@Luke:16:9 @And I say to you, Make friends for yourselves through the wealth of this life, so that when it comes to an end, you may be taken into the eternal resting-places.

bbe@Luke:16:10 @He who is true in a little, is true in much; he who is false in small things, is false in great.

bbe@Luke:16:16 @The law and the prophets were till John: but then came the preaching of the kingdom of God, and everyone makes his way into it by force.

bbe@Luke:16:21 @Desiring the broken bits of food which came from the table of the man of wealth; and even the dogs came and put their tongues on his wounds

bbe@Luke:16:24 @And he gave a cry and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus, so that he may put the end of his finger in water and put it on my tongue, for I am cruelly burning in this flame.

bbe@Luke:16:26 @And in addition, there is a deep division fixed between us and you, so that those who might go from here to you are not able to do so, and no one may come from you to us.

bbe@Luke:16:27 @And he said, Father, it is my request that you will send him to my father's house;

bbe@Luke:17:1 @And he said to his disciples, It is necessary for causes of trouble to come about, but unhappy is he by whom they come.

bbe@Luke:17:2 @It would be well for him if a great stone was put round his neck and he was dropped into the sea, before he made trouble for any of these little ones.

bbe@Luke:17:5 @And the twelve said to the Lord, Make our faith greater.

bbe@Luke:17:6 @And the Lord said, If your faith was only as great as a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this tree, Be rooted up and planted in the sea; and it would be done.

bbe@Luke:17:10 @In the same way, when you have done all the things which are given you to do, say, There is no profit in us, for we have only done what we were ordered to do.

bbe@Luke:17:11 @And it came about that when they were on the way to Jerusalem he went through Samaria and Galilee.

bbe@Luke:17:16 @And, falling down on his face at the feet of Jesus, he gave the credit to him; and he was a man of Samaria.

bbe@Luke:17:19 @And he said to him, Get up, and go on your way; your faith has made you well.

bbe@Luke:17:21 @And men will not say, See, it is here! or, There! for the kingdom of God is among you.

bbe@Luke:17:22 @And he said to his disciples, The time will come when you will have a great desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, but you will not see it.

bbe@Luke:17:23 @And if they say to you, See, it is there! or, It is here! do not go away, or go after them

bbe@Luke:17:26 @And as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the day of the Son of man.

bbe@Luke:17:30 @So will it be in the day of the revelation of the Son of man.

bbe@Luke:17:33 @If anyone makes an attempt to keep his life, it will be taken from him, but if anyone gives up his life, he will keep it.

bbe@Luke:18:7 @And will not God do right in the cause of his saints, whose cries come day and night to his ears, though he is long in doing it?

bbe@Luke:18:8 @I say to you that he will quickly do right in their cause. But when the Son of man comes, will there be any faith on earth?

bbe@Luke:18:11 @The Pharisee, taking up his position, said to himself these words: God, I give you praise because I am not like other men, who take more than their right, who are evil-doers, who are untrue to their wives, or even like this tax-farmer.

bbe@Luke:18:12 @Twice in the week I go without food; I give a tenth of all I have.

bbe@Luke:18:14 @I say to you, This man went back to his house with God's approval, and not the other: for everyone who makes himself high will be made low and whoever makes himself low will be made high.

bbe@Luke:18:15 @And they took their children to him, so that he might put his hands on them: but when the disciples saw it, they said sharp words to them

bbe@Luke:18:17 @Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.

bbe@Luke:18:20 @You have knowledge of what the law says: Do not be untrue to your wife, Do not put anyone to death, Do not take what is not yours, Do not give false witness, Give honour to your father and mother.

bbe@Luke:18:22 @And Jesus, hearing it, said to him, One thing you still have need of; get money for your goods, and give it away to the poor, and you will have wealth in heaven; and come after me.

bbe@Luke:18:24 @And Jesus, looking at him, said, How hard it is for those who have wealth to get into the kingdom of God!

bbe@Luke:18:25 @It is simpler for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a man who has much money to come into the kingdom of God.

bbe@Luke:18:27 @But he said, Things which are not possible with man are possible with God.

bbe@Luke:18:31 @And he took with him the twelve and said to them, Now we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things which were said by the prophets will be done to the Son of man.

bbe@Luke:18:34 @But they did not take in the sense of any of these words, and what he said was not clear to them, and their minds were not able to see it.

bbe@Luke:18:35 @And it came about that when he got near Jericho, a certain blind man was seated by the side of the road, making requests for money from those who went by.

bbe@Luke:18:42 @And Jesus said, See again: your faith has made you well.

bbe@Luke:18:43 @And straight away he was able to see, and he went after him, giving glory to God; and all the people when they saw it gave praise to God.

bbe@Luke:19:1 @And he went into Jericho, and when he was going through it,

bbe@Luke:19:6 @And he came down quickly, and took him into his house with joy.

bbe@Luke:19:7 @And when they saw it, they were all angry, saying, He has gone into the house of a sinner.

bbe@Luke:19:8 @And Zacchaeus, waiting before him, said to the Lord, See, Lord, half of my goods I give to the poor, and if I have taken anything from anyone wrongly, I give him back four times as much.

bbe@Luke:19:13 @And he sent for ten of his servants and gave them ten pounds and said to them, Do business with this till I come.

bbe@Luke:19:17 @And he said to him, You have done well, O good servant: because you have done well in a small thing you will have authority over ten towns.

bbe@Luke:19:23 @Why then did you not put my money in a bank, so that when I came I would get it back with interest?

bbe@Luke:19:24 @And he said to the others who were near, Take the pound away from him, and give it to the man who has ten.

bbe@Luke:19:29 @And it came about that when he got near Beth-phage and Bethany by the mountain which is named the Mountain of Olives, he sent two of the disciples,

bbe@Luke:19:30 @Saying, Go into the little town in front of you, and on going in you will see a young ass fixed with a cord, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose and take him.

bbe@Luke:19:32 @And those whom he sent went away, and it was as he said.

bbe@Luke:19:33 @And when they were getting the young ass, the owners of it said to them, Why are you taking the young ass?

bbe@Luke:19:37 @And when he came near the foot of the Mountain of Olives, all the disciples with loud voices gave praise to God with joy, because of all the great works which they had seen;

bbe@Luke:19:41 @And when he got near and saw the town, he was overcome with weeping for it,

bbe@Luke:19:44 @And will make you level with the earth, and your children with you; and there will not be one stone resting on another in you, because you did not see that it was your day of mercy.

bbe@Luke:19:46 @Saying to them, It has been said, My house is to be a house of prayer, but you have made it a hole of thieves.

bbe@Luke:20:1 @And it came about on one of those days, when he was teaching the people in the Temple and preaching the good news,

bbe@Luke:20:2 @That the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people came to him and said, Make clear to us by what authority you do these things and who gave you this authority.

bbe@Luke:20:4 @The baptism of John, was it from heaven or of men?

bbe@Luke:20:5 @And they said among themselves, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why did you not have faith in him?

bbe@Luke:20:7 @And they made answer that they had no idea where it came from.

bbe@Luke:20:8 @And Jesus said, And I will not make clear to you by what authority I do these things.

bbe@Luke:20:9 @And he gave the people this story: A man made a vine-garden and gave the use of it to some field-workers and went into another country for a long time.

bbe@Luke:20:10 @And at the right time he sent a servant to the workers to get part of the fruit from the vines; but the workmen gave him blows and sent him away with nothing.

bbe@Luke:20:11 @And he sent another servant, and they gave blows to him in the same way, and put shame on him, and sent him away with nothing.

bbe@Luke:20:14 @But when the workmen saw him, they said to one another, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property: let us put him to death and the heritage will be ours.

bbe@Luke:20:16 @He will come and put them to destruction and give the garden to others. And when he said this, they said, May it not be so.

bbe@Luke:20:17 @But he, looking on them, said, Is it not in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has become the chief stone of the building?

bbe@Luke:20:21 @And they put a question to him, saying, Master, we are certain that your teaching and your words are right, and that you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God:

bbe@Luke:20:22 @Is it right for us to make payment of taxes to Caesar or not?

bbe@Luke:20:24 @Let me see a penny. Whose image and name are on it? And they said, Caesar's.

bbe@Luke:20:31 @And the third took her; and in the same way, all the seven, without having any children, came to their end.

bbe@Luke:20:37 @But even Moses made it clear that the dead come back to life, saying, in the story of the burning thorn-tree, The Lord, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

bbe@Luke:20:44 @David then gives him the name of Lord, so how is it possible for him to be his son?

bbe@Luke:20:46 @Keep away from the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes, and to have words of respect said to them in the market-places, and to take the chief seats in the Synagogues and the first places at feasts;

bbe@Luke:21:5 @And some were talking about the Temple, how it was made fair with beautiful stones and with offerings, but he said,

bbe@Luke:21:11 @There will be great earth-shocks and outbursts of disease in a number of places, and men will be without food; and there will be wonders and great signs from heaven.

bbe@Luke:21:13 @And it will be turned to a witness for you.

bbe@Luke:21:22 @For these are the days of punishment, in which all the things in the Writings will be put into effect.

bbe@Luke:21:23 @It will be hard for women who are with child, and for her with a baby at the breast, in those days. For great trouble will come on the land, and wrath on this people.

bbe@Luke:21:24 @And they will be put to death with the sword, and will be taken as prisoners into all the nations; and Jerusalem will be crushed under the feet of the Gentiles, till the times of the Gentiles are complete.

bbe@Luke:21:26 @Men's strength will go from them in fear and in waiting for the things which are coming on the earth; for the powers of the heavens will be moved.

bbe@Luke:21:27 @And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud, with power and great glory.

bbe@Luke:21:30 @When they put out their young leaves, you take note of it, and it is clear to you that summer is coming.

bbe@Luke:21:35 @For so it will come on all those who are living on the face of all the earth.

bbe@Luke:21:36 @But keep watch at all times with prayer, that you may be strong enough to come through all these things and take your place before the Son of man.

bbe@Luke:22:4 @And he went away and had a discussion with the chief priests and the rulers, about how he might give him up to them.

bbe@Luke:22:6 @And he made an agreement with them to give him up to them, if he got a chance, when the people were not present.

bbe@Luke:22:8 @And Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make the Passover ready for us, so that we may take it.

bbe@Luke:22:9 @And they said to him, Where are we to get it ready?

bbe@Luke:22:10 @And he said to them, When you go into the town you will see a man coming to you with a vessel of water; go after him into the house into which he goes.

bbe@Luke:22:11 @And say to the master of the house, The Master says, Where is the guest-room, where I may take the Passover with my disciples?

bbe@Luke:22:12 @And he will take you up to a great room with a table and seats: there make ready.

bbe@Luke:22:13 @And they went, and it was as he had said: and they made the Passover ready.

bbe@Luke:22:14 @And when the time had come, he took his seat, and the Apostles with him.

bbe@Luke:22:15 @And he said, I have had a great desire to keep this Passover with you before I come to my death;

bbe@Luke:22:16 @For I say to you, I will not take it till it is made complete in the kingdom of God

bbe@Luke:22:18 @For I say to you, I will not take of the fruit of the vine till the kingdom of God has come.

bbe@Luke:22:19 @And he took bread and, having given praise, he gave it to them when it had been broken, saying, This is my body, which is given for you: do this in memory of me.

bbe@Luke:22:20 @And in the same way, after the meal, he took the cup, saying, This cup is the new testament, made with my blood which is given for you.

bbe@Luke:22:21 @But the hand of him who is false to me is with me at the table.

bbe@Luke:22:22 @For it will be done to the Son of man after the purpose of God, but unhappy is that man by whom he is given up.

bbe@Luke:22:23 @And they were wondering among themselves which of them it was who would do this thing.

bbe@Luke:22:25 @And he said, The kings of the Gentiles are lords over them, and those who have authority are given names of honour.

bbe@Luke:22:26 @But let it not be so with you; but he who is greater, let him become like the younger; and he who is chief, like a servant.

bbe@Luke:22:27 @For which is greater, the guest who is seated at a meal or the servant who is waiting on him? is it not the guest? but I am among you as a servant.

bbe@Luke:22:28 @But you are those who have kept with me through my troubles;

bbe@Luke:22:32 @But I have made prayer for you, that your faith may not go from you: and when you are turned again, make your brothers strong.

bbe@Luke:22:33 @And he said to him, Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.

bbe@Luke:22:35 @And he said to them, When I sent you out without money or bag or shoes, were you in need of anything? And they said, Nothing.

bbe@Luke:22:36 @And he said to them, But now, he who has a money-bag, or a bag for food, let him take it: and he who has not, let him give his coat for money and get a sword.

bbe@Luke:22:37 @For I say to you that these words will be put into effect in me, And he was numbered among the evil-doers: for what has been said in the Writings about me has an end.

bbe@Luke:22:38 @And they said, Lord, here are two swords. And he said, It is enough.

bbe@Luke:22:39 @And he came out, and went, as his way was, to the Mountain of Olives, and the disciples went with him.

bbe@Luke:22:41 @And he went a little distance away from them and, falling on his knees in prayer, he said,

bbe@Luke:22:42 @Father, if it is your pleasure, take this cup from me: but still, let your pleasure, not mine, be done.

bbe@Luke:22:48 @But Jesus said to him, Judas, will you be false to the Son of man with a kiss?

bbe@Luke:22:49 @And when those who were with him saw what was coming, they said, Lord, may we not make use of our swords?

bbe@Luke:22:51 @But Jesus, answering, said, Put up with this, at least. And touching his ear, he made it well.

bbe@Luke:22:52 @And Jesus said to the chief priests and the captains of the Temple and the rulers, who had come against him, Have you come out as against a thief, with swords and sticks?

bbe@Luke:22:53 @When I was in the Temple with you every day, your hands were not stretched out against me: but this is your hour, and the authority of the dark power.

bbe@Luke:22:56 @And a certain woman-servant, seeing him in the light of the fire, and looking at him with attention, said, This man was with him.

bbe@Luke:22:57 @But he said, Woman, it is not true; I have no knowledge of him.

bbe@Luke:22:58 @And after a little time, another saw him and said, You are one of them; and he said, Man, I am not.

bbe@Luke:22:59 @And after about an hour, another man said, with decision, Certainly this man was with him, for he is a Galilaean.

bbe@Luke:22:62 @And he went out, weeping bitterly.

bbe@Luke:22:66 @And when it was day, the rulers of the people came together, with the chief priests and the scribes, and they took him before their Sanhedrin, saying,

bbe@Luke:22:71 @And they said, What more need have we of witness? we have the very words of his mouth.

bbe@Luke:23:7 @And when he saw that he was under the authority of Herod, he sent him to Herod, who was in Jerusalem himself at that time.

bbe@Luke:23:11 @And Herod, with the men of his army, put shame on him and made sport of him, and dressing him in shining robes, he sent him back to Pilate.

bbe@Luke:23:12 @And that day Herod and Pilate became friends with one another, for before they had been against one another.

bbe@Luke:23:14 @You say that this man has been teaching the people evil things: now I, after going into the question before you, see nothing wrong in this man in connection with the things which you have said against him:

bbe@Luke:23:18 @But with loud voices they said all together, Put this man to death, and make Barabbas free

bbe@Luke:23:20 @And Pilate again said to them that it was his desire to let Jesus go free.

bbe@Luke:23:21 @But crying out they said, To the cross with him!

bbe@Luke:23:31 @For if they do these things when the tree is green, what will they do when it is dry?

bbe@Luke:23:32 @And two others, evil-doers, were taken with him to be put to death.

bbe@Luke:23:36 @And the men of the army made sport of him, coming to him and giving him bitter wine,

bbe@Luke:23:38 @And these words were put in writing over him, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

bbe@Luke:23:39 @And one of the evil-doers on the cross, with bitter feeling, said to him, Are you not the Christ? Get yourself and us out of this.

bbe@Luke:23:41 @And with reason; for we have the right reward of our acts, but this man has done nothing wrong.

bbe@Luke:23:43 @And he said to him, Truly I say to you, Today you will be with me in Paradise.

bbe@Luke:23:44 @And it was now about the sixth hour; and all the land was dark till the ninth hour;

bbe@Luke:23:46 @And Jesus gave a loud cry and said, Father, into your hands I give my spirit: and when he had said this, he gave up his spirit.

bbe@Luke:23:47 @And when the captain saw what was done, he gave praise to God, saying, Without doubt this was an upright man.

bbe@Luke:23:48 @And all the people who had come together to see it, when they saw the things which were done, went back again making signs of grief.

bbe@Luke:23:49 @And all his friends and the women who came with him from Galilee, were waiting at a distance, watching these things.

bbe@Luke:23:50 @Now there was a man named Joseph, a man of authority and a good and upright man

bbe@Luke:23:51 @(He had not given his approval to their decision or their acts), of Arimathaea, a town of the Jews, who was waiting for the kingdom of God:

bbe@Luke:23:53 @And he took it down, and folding it in a linen cloth, he put it in a place cut in the rock for a dead body; and no one had ever been put in it.

bbe@Luke:23:54 @Now it was the day of making ready and the Sabbath was coming on.

bbe@Luke:23:55 @And the women who had come with him from Galilee went after him and saw the place and how his body had been put to rest;

bbe@Luke:23:56 @And they went back and got ready spices and perfumes; and on the Sabbath they took their rest, in agreement with the law.

bbe@Luke:24:4 @And while they were in doubt about it, they saw two men in shining clothing by them:

bbe@Luke:24:10 @Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James: and the other women with them said these things to the Apostles.

bbe@Luke:24:13 @And then, two of them, on that very day, were going to a little town named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem.

bbe@Luke:24:15 @And while they were talking and questioning together, Jesus himself came near and went with them.

bbe@Luke:24:19 @And he said to them, What things? And they said, The things to do with Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, great in his acts and his words, before God and all the people:

bbe@Luke:24:21 @But we were hoping that he would be the Saviour of Israel. In addition to all this he has now let three days go by from the time when these things took place;

bbe@Luke:24:23 @And it was not there; then they came saying that they had seen a vision of angels who said that he was living.

bbe@Luke:24:24 @And some of those who were with us went to the place, and saw that it was as the women had said, but him they did not see.

bbe@Luke:24:26 @Was it not necessary for the Christ to go through these things, and to come into his glory?

bbe@Luke:24:27 @And he made clear to them all the things in the Writings, from Moses and from all the prophets, which had to do with himself.

bbe@Luke:24:29 @But they kept him back, saying, Do not go, for evening is near, the day is almost gone. And he went in with them.

bbe@Luke:24:30 @And when he was seated with them at table, he took the bread, and said words of blessing and, making division of it, he gave it to them.

bbe@Luke:24:32 @And they said to one another, Were not our hearts burning in us while he was talking to us on the way, making clear to us the holy Writings?

bbe@Luke:24:36 @And while they were saying these things, he himself was among them, and said to them, Peace be with you!

bbe@Luke:24:37 @But they were full of fear, being of the opinion that they were seeing a spirit.

bbe@Luke:24:39 @See; my hands and my feet: it is I myself; put your hands on me and make certain; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have.

bbe@Luke:24:42 @And they gave him a bit of cooked fish.

bbe@Luke:24:44 @And he said to them, These are the words which I said to you when I was still with you, how it was necessary for all the things which are in the writings of Moses and the prophets and in the Psalms about me, to be put into effect.

bbe@Luke:24:45 @Then he made the holy Writings clear to their minds.

bbe@Luke:24:46 @And he said to them, So it is in the Writings that the Christ would undergo death, and come back to life again on the third day;

bbe@Luke:24:48 @You are witnesses of these things.

bbe@Luke:24:52 @And they gave him worship and went back to Jerusalem with great joy.

bbe@John:1:1 @From the first he was the Word, and the Word was in relation with God and was God.

bbe@John:1:2 @This Word was from the first in relation with God.

bbe@John:1:3 @All things came into existence through him, and without him nothing was.

bbe@John:1:5 @And the light goes on shining in the dark; it is not overcome by the dark.

bbe@John:1:7 @He came for witness, to give witness about the light, so that all men might have faith through him.

bbe@John:1:8 @He himself was not the light: he was sent to give witness about the light.

bbe@John:1:12 @To all those who did so take him, however, he gave the right of becoming children of God--that is, to those who had faith in his name:

bbe@John:1:14 @And so the Word became flesh and took a place among us for a time; and we saw his glory--such glory as is given to an only son by his father--saw it to be true and full of grace.

bbe@John:1:15 @John gave witness about him, crying, This is he of whom I said, He who is coming after me is put over me because he was in existence before me.

bbe@John:1:19 @And this is the witness of John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to him with the question, Who are you?

bbe@John:1:20 @He said quite openly and straightforwardly, I am not the Christ.

bbe@John:1:26 @John's answer was: I give baptism with water; but there is one among you of whom you have no knowledge;

bbe@John:1:27 @It is he who is coming after me; I am not good enough to undo his shoes.

bbe@John:1:31 @I myself had no knowledge of him, but I came giving baptism with water so that he might be seen openly by Israel.

bbe@John:1:32 @And John gave this witness, saying, I saw the Spirit coming down from heaven like a dove and resting on him.

bbe@John:1:33 @I had no knowledge who he was, but he who sent me to give baptism with water said to me, The one on whom you see the Spirit coming down and resting, it is he who gives baptism with the Holy Spirit.

bbe@John:1:34 @This I saw myself and my witness is that he is the Son of God.

bbe@John:1:35 @The day after, John was there again with two of his disciples;

bbe@John:1:40 @He said to them, Come and see. They went with him then and saw where he was living; and they were with him all that day: it was then about the tenth hour of the day.

bbe@John:1:42 @Early in the morning he came across his brother and said to him, We have made discovery! It is the Messiah! (which is to say, the Christ).

bbe@John:1:46 @Philip came across Nathanael and said to him, We have made a discovery! It is he of whom Moses, in the law, and the prophets were writing, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

bbe@John:1:47 @Nazareth! said Nathanael, Is it possible for any good to come out of Nazareth? Philip said to him, Come and see.

bbe@John:1:49 @Nathanael said to him, Where did you get knowledge of me? In answer Jesus said, Before Philip was talking with you, while you were still under the fig-tree, I saw you.

bbe@John:1:51 @In answer Jesus said to him, You have faith because I said to you, I saw you under the fig-tree. You will see greater things than these.

bbe@John:2:2 @And Jesus with his disciples came as guests.

bbe@John:2:5 @His mother said to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do it.

bbe@John:2:8 @Then he said to them, Now take some, and give it to the master of the feast. So they took it to him.

bbe@John:2:9 @After tasting the water which had now become wine, the master of the feast (having no idea where it came from, though it was clear to the servants who took the water out) sent for the newly-married man,

bbe@John:2:11 @This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee and let his glory be seen openly; and his disciples put their faith in him.

bbe@John:2:12 @After this he went down to Capernaum, with his mother, his brothers, and his disciples, and they were there not more than two or three days.

bbe@John:2:15 @And he made a whip of small cords and put them all out of the Temple, with the sheep and the oxen, sending in all directions the small money of the changers and overturning their tables;

bbe@John:2:17 @And it came to the minds of the disciples that the Writings say, I am on fire with passion for your house.

bbe@John:2:18 @Then the Jews put this question to him: What sign of authority have you to give us, seeing that you do these things?

bbe@John:2:19 @And Jesus said to them, Send destruction on this Temple and I will put it up again in three days.

bbe@John:2:20 @The Jews said, The building of this Temple took forty-six years; and you will put it up in three days!

bbe@John:2:22 @So when he had come back again from the dead, the memory of these words came back to the disciples, and they had faith in the holy Writings and in the word which Jesus had said.

bbe@John:2:23 @Now while he was in Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover, a great number of people came to have faith in his name, after seeing the signs which he did.

bbe@John:2:24 @But Jesus did not have faith in them, because he had knowledge of them all.

bbe@John:2:25 @He had no need for any witness about man; for he himself had knowledge of what was in man.

bbe@John:3:2 @He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we are certain that you have come from God as a teacher, because no man would be able to do these signs which you do if God was not with him.

bbe@John:3:3 @Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you, Without a new birth no man is able to see the kingdom of God.

bbe@John:3:4 @Nicodemus said to him, How is it possible for a man to be given birth when he is old? Is he able to go into his mother's body a second time and come to birth again?

bbe@John:3:5 @Jesus said in answer, Truly, I say to you, If a man's birth is not from water and from the Spirit, it is not possible for him to go into the kingdom of God.

bbe@John:3:6 @That which has birth from the flesh is flesh, and that which has birth from the Spirit is spirit.

bbe@John:3:7 @Do not be surprised that I say to you, It is necessary for you to have a second birth.

bbe@John:3:8 @The wind goes where its pleasure takes it, and the sound of it comes to your ears, but you are unable to say where it comes from and where it goes: so it is with everyone whose birth is from the Spirit.

bbe@John:3:9 @And Nicodemus said to him, How is it possible for these things to be?

bbe@John:3:11 @Truly, I say to you, We say that of which we have knowledge; we give witness of what we have seen; and you do not take our witness to be true.

bbe@John:3:14 @As the snake was lifted up by Moses in the waste land, even so it is necessary for the Son of man to be lifted up:

bbe@John:3:15 @So that whoever has faith may have in him eternal life.

bbe@John:3:16 @For God had such love for the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever has faith in him may not come to destruction but have eternal life.

bbe@John:3:18 @The man who has faith in him does not come up to be judged; but he who has no faith in him has been judged even now, because he has no faith in the name of the only Son of God.

bbe@John:3:21 @But he whose life is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his acts have been done by the help of God.

bbe@John:3:22 @After these things Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judaea, and there he was with them for some time, giving baptism.

bbe@John:3:26 @And they went to John and said to him, Rabbi, the man who was with you on the other side of the Jordan, the man to whom you gave witness, is now giving baptism, and everyone is going to him.

bbe@John:3:27 @And this was John's answer: A man is unable to have anything if it is not given to him from heaven.

bbe@John:3:28 @You yourselves give witness that I said, I am not the Christ. What I said was, I am sent before the Christ.

bbe@John:3:29 @He who has the bride is the husband: but the husband's friend, whose place is by his side and whose ears are open to him, is full of joy because of the husband's voice: such is my joy, and it is complete.

bbe@John:3:32 @He gives witness of what he has seen and of what has come to his ears; and no man takes his witness as true.

bbe@John:3:33 @He who so takes his witness has made clear his faith that God is true.

bbe@John:3:34 @For he whom God has sent says God's words; and God does not give him the Spirit by measure.

bbe@John:3:36 @He who has faith in the Son has eternal life; but he who has not faith in the Son will not see life; God's wrath is resting on him.

bbe@John:4:1 @Now when it was clear to the Lord that word had come to the ears of the Pharisees that Jesus was making more disciples than John and was giving them baptism

bbe@John:4:2 @(Though, in fact, it was his disciples who gave baptism, not Jesus himself),

bbe@John:4:4 @And it was necessary for him to go through Samaria.

bbe@John:4:5 @So he came to a town of Samaria which was named Sychar, near to the bit of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph:

bbe@John:4:6 @Now Jacob's fountain was there. Jesus, being tired after his journey, was resting by the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.

bbe@John:4:9 @The woman of Samaria said to him, Why do you, a Jew, make a request for water to me, a woman of Samaria? She said this because Jews have nothing to do with the people of Samaria.

bbe@John:4:10 @In answer Jesus said, If you had knowledge of what God gives freely and who it is who says to you, Give me water, you would make your prayer to him, and he would give you living water

bbe@John:4:12 @Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us the fountain and took the water of it himself, with his children and his cattle?

bbe@John:4:13 @Jesus said to her, Everyone who takes this water will be in need of it again:

bbe@John:4:15 @The woman said to him, Sir, give me this water, so that I may not be in need again of drink and will not have to come all this way for it.

bbe@John:4:16 @Jesus said to her, Go, get your husband and come back here with him.

bbe@John:4:22 @You give worship, but without knowledge of what you are worshipping: we give worship to what we have knowledge of: for salvation comes from the Jews.

bbe@John:4:23 @But the time is coming, and is even now here, when the true worshippers will give worship to the Father in the true way of the spirit, for these are the worshippers desired by the Father.

bbe@John:4:24 @God is Spirit: then let his worshippers give him worship in the true way of the spirit.

bbe@John:4:29 @Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?

bbe@John:4:35 @You would say, Four months from now is the time of the grain-cutting. Take a look, I say to you, at the fields; they are even now white for cutting.

bbe@John:4:36 @He who does the cutting now has his reward; he is getting together fruit for eternal life, so that he who did the planting and he who gets in the grain may have joy together.

bbe@John:4:39 @Now a number of the people of that town had faith in him because of the woman's witness: He has been talking to me of everything I ever did.

bbe@John:4:41 @And a great number more of them came to have faith in him because of what he himself said.

bbe@John:4:42 @And they said to the woman, Now we have faith, but not because of your story: we ourselves have given ear to his words, and we are certain that he is truly the Saviour of the world.

bbe@John:4:46 @So he came to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And there was a certain man of high position whose son was ill at Capernaum.

bbe@John:4:47 @When it came to his ears that Jesus had come from Judaea into Galilee, he went to him and made a request that he would come down to his son, who was near to death, and make him well.

bbe@John:4:48 @Then Jesus said to him, You will not have faith if you do not see signs and wonders.

bbe@John:4:50 @And Jesus said, Go in peace; your son is living. The man had faith in the word which Jesus said to him and went away.

bbe@John:4:53 @It was clear then to the father that this was the very time at which Jesus said to him, Your son is living. And he had faith in Jesus, he and all his family.

bbe@John:5:2 @Now in Jerusalem near the sheep-market there is a public bath which in Hebrew is named Beth-zatha. It has five doorways.

bbe@John:5:3 @In these doorways there were a great number of people with different diseases: some unable to see, some without the power of walking, some with wasted bodies.

bbe@John:5:6 @When Jesus saw him there on the floor it was clear to him that he had been now a long time in that condition, and so he said to the man, Is it your desire to get well?

bbe@John:5:10 @So the Jews said to the man who had been made well, It is the Sabbath; and it is against the law for you to take up your bed.

bbe@John:5:12 @Then they put to him the question: Who is the man who said to you, Take it up and go?

bbe@John:5:13 @Now he who had been made well had no knowledge who it was, Jesus having gone away because of the number of people who were in that place.

bbe@John:5:15 @The man went away and said to the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

bbe@John:5:18 @For this cause the Jews had an even greater desire to put Jesus to death, because not only did he not keep the Sabbath but he said God was his Father, so making himself equal with God.

bbe@John:5:19 @So Jesus made answer and said, Truly I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything himself; he is able to do only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does the Son does it in the same way.

bbe@John:5:21 @In the same way, as the Father gives life to the dead, even so the Son gives life to those to whom he is pleased to give it.

bbe@John:5:24 @Truly I say to you, The man whose ears are open to my word and who has faith in him who sent me, has eternal life; he will not be judged, but has come from death into life.

bbe@John:5:25 @Truly I say to you, The time is coming, it has even now come, when the voice of the Son of God will come to the ears of the dead, and those hearing it will have life.

bbe@John:5:27 @And he has given him authority to be judge because he is the Son of man.

bbe@John:5:31 @If I gave witness about myself, my witness would not be true.

bbe@John:5:32 @There is another who gives witness about me and I am certain that the witness he gives about me is true.

bbe@John:5:33 @You sent to John and he gave true witness.

bbe@John:5:34 @But I have no need of a man's witness: I only say these things so that you may have salvation.

bbe@John:5:36 @But the witness which I have is greater than that of John: the work which the Father has given me to do, the very work which I am now doing, is a witness that the Father has sent me.

bbe@John:5:37 @And the Father himself who sent me has given witness about me. Not one of you has ever given ear to his voice; his form you have not seen.

bbe@John:5:38 @And you have not kept his word in your hearts, because you have not faith in him whom he has sent.

bbe@John:5:39 @You make search in the holy Writings, in the belief that through them you get eternal life; and it is those Writings which give witness about me.

bbe@John:5:43 @I have come in my Father's name, and your hearts are not open to me. If another comes with no other authority but himself, you will give him your approval.

bbe@John:5:44 @How is it possible for you to have faith while you take honour one from another and have no desire for the honour which comes from the only God?

bbe@John:5:46 @If you had belief in Moses you would have belief in me; for his writings are about me.

bbe@John:5:47 @If you have no belief in his writings, how will you have belief in my words?

bbe@John:6:3 @Then Jesus went up the mountain and was seated there with his disciples.

bbe@John:6:7 @Philip made answer, Bread to the value of two hundred pence would not be enough even to give everyone a little.

bbe@John:6:9 @There is a boy here with five barley cakes and two fishes: but what is that among such a number?

bbe@John:6:12 @And when they had had enough, Jesus said to his disciples, Take up the broken bits which are over, so that nothing may be wasted.

bbe@John:6:13 @So they took them up: twelve baskets full of broken bits of the five cakes which were over after the people had had enough.

bbe@John:6:17 @And they took a boat and went across the sea in the direction of Capernaum. By then it was dark and still Jesus had not come to them.

bbe@John:6:20 @But he said to them, It is I, have no fear.

bbe@John:6:22 @The day after, the people who were on the other side of the sea saw that only one small boat had been there, that Jesus had not gone in that boat with the disciples, but that the disciples had gone away by themselves.

bbe@John:6:29 @Jesus, answering, said to them, This is to do the work of God: to have faith in him whom God has sent.

bbe@John:6:30 @So they said, What sign do you give us, so that we may see and have faith in you? What do you do?

bbe@John:6:31 @Our fathers had the manna in the waste land, as the Writings say, He gave them bread from heaven.

bbe@John:6:32 @Jesus then said to them, Truly I say to you, What Moses gave you was not the bread from heaven; it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

bbe@John:6:35 @And this was the answer of Jesus: I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never be in need of food, and he who has faith in me will never be in need of drink.

bbe@John:6:36 @But it is as I said to you: you have seen me, and still you have no faith.

bbe@John:6:39 @And this is the pleasure of him who sent me, that I am not to let out of my hands anything which he has given me, but I am to give it new life on the last day.

bbe@John:6:40 @This, I say, is my Father's pleasure, that everyone who sees the Son and has faith in him may have eternal life: and I will take him up on the last day.

bbe@John:6:41 @Now the Jews said bitter things about Jesus because of his words, I am the bread which came down from heaven.

bbe@John:6:42 @And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have seen? How is it then that he now says, I have come down from heaven?

bbe@John:6:45 @The writings of the prophets say, And they will all have teaching from God. Everyone whose ears have been open to the teaching of the Father comes to me.

bbe@John:6:47 @Truly I say to you, He who has faith in me has eternal life.

bbe@John:6:50 @The bread which comes from heaven is such bread that a man may take it for food and never see death.

bbe@John:6:52 @Then the Jews had an angry discussion among themselves, saying, How is it possible for this man to give us his flesh for food?

bbe@John:6:58 @This is the bread which has come down from heaven. It is not like the food which your fathers had: they took of the manna, and are dead; but he who takes this bread for food will have life for ever.

bbe@John:6:63 @The spirit is the life giver; the flesh is of no value: the words which I have said to you are spirit and they are life.

bbe@John:6:64 @But still some of you have no faith. For it was clear to Jesus from the first who they were who had no faith, and who it was who would be false to him.

bbe@John:6:66 @Because of what he said, a number of the disciples went back and would no longer go with him.

bbe@John:6:69 @And we have faith and are certain that you are the Holy One of God.

bbe@John:6:71 @He was talking of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. It was he who was to be false to Jesus--one of the twelve.

bbe@John:7:7 @It is not possible for you to be hated by the world; but I am hated by it, because I give witness that what it does is evil.

bbe@John:7:16 @Jesus gave them this answer: It is not my teaching, but his who sent me

bbe@John:7:17 @If any man is ready to do God's pleasure he will have knowledge of the teaching and of where it comes from--from God or from myself.

bbe@John:7:20 @The people said in answer, You have an evil spirit: who has any desire to put you to death?

bbe@John:7:21 @This was the answer of Jesus: I have done one work and you are all surprised at it.

bbe@John:7:22 @Moses gave you circumcision--not that it comes from Moses, but from the fathers--and even on the Sabbath you give a child circumcision.

bbe@John:7:23 @If a child is given circumcision on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?

bbe@John:7:26 @And here he is talking openly and they say nothing to him! Is it possible that the rulers have knowledge that this is truly the Christ?

bbe@John:7:27 @However, it is clear to us where this man comes from: but when the Christ comes no one will have knowledge where he comes from.

bbe@John:7:28 @Then, when he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus said with a loud voice, You have knowledge of me and you have knowledge of where I come from; and I have not come of myself; but there is One who has sent me; he is true, but you have no knowledge of him.

bbe@John:7:33 @Then Jesus said, I will be with you a little longer and then I go to him who sent me.

bbe@John:7:37 @On the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus got up and said in a loud voice, If any man is in need of drink let him come to me and I will give it to him.

bbe@John:7:38 @He who has faith in me, out of his body, as the Writings have said, will come rivers of living water.

bbe@John:7:39 @This he said of the Spirit which would be given to those who had faith in him: the Spirit had not been given then, because the glory of Jesus was still to come.

bbe@John:7:42 @Do not the Writings say that the Christ comes of the seed of David and from Beth-lehem, the little town where David was?

bbe@John:7:45 @Then the servants went back to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, Why have you not got him with you?

bbe@John:7:51 @Is a man judged by our law before it has given him a hearing and has knowledge of what he has done?

bbe@John:8:3 @Now the scribes and Pharisees came, with a woman who had been taken in the act of sinning against the married relation;

bbe@John:8:5 @Now in the law Moses gave directions that such women were to be stoned; what do you say about it?

bbe@John:8:6 @They said this, testing him, so that they might have something against him. But Jesus, with his head bent down, made letters on the floor with his finger.

bbe@John:8:7 @But when they went on with their questions, he got up and said to them, Let him among you who is without sin be the first to send a stone at her.

bbe@John:8:8 @And again, with bent head, he made letters on the floor.

bbe@John:8:9 @And when his words came to their ears, they went out one by one, starting with the oldest even to the last, because they were conscious of what was in their hearts: and Jesus was there by himself with the woman before him.

bbe@John:8:12 @Then again Jesus said to them, I am the light of the world; he who comes with me will not be walking in the dark but will have the light of life.

bbe@John:8:13 @So the Pharisees said to him, The witness you give is about yourself: your witness is not true.

bbe@John:8:14 @Jesus said in answer, Even if I give witness about myself, my witness is true, because I have knowledge of where I came from and where I am going; but you have no knowledge of where I come from or of where I am going.

bbe@John:8:16 @Even if I am judging, my decision is right, because I am not by myself--with me is the Father who sent me.

bbe@John:8:17 @Even in your law it is said that the witness of two men is true.

bbe@John:8:18 @I give witness about myself and the Father who sent me gives witness about me

bbe@John:8:21 @Then he said to them again, I am going away and you will be looking for me, but death will overtake you in your sins. It is not possible for you to come where I am going.

bbe@John:8:22 @So the Jews said, Will he take his life? Is that why he says, Where I go it is not possible for you to come?

bbe@John:8:24 @For this reason I said to you that death will overtake you in your sins: for if you have not faith that I am he, death will come to you while you are in your sins.

bbe@John:8:28 @So Jesus said, When the Son of man has been lifted up by you, then it will be clear to you who I am, and that I do nothing of myself, but say as the Father gave me teaching.

bbe@John:8:29 @He who sent me is with me; he has not gone from me, because at all times I do the things which are pleasing to him.

bbe@John:8:30 @When he said this a number came to have faith in him.

bbe@John:8:31 @Then Jesus said to the Jews who had faith in him, If you keep my word, then you are truly my disciples;

bbe@John:8:40 @But now you have a desire to put me to death, a man who has said to you what is true, as I had it from God: Abraham did not do that.

bbe@John:8:42 @Jesus said to them, If God was your Father you would have love for me, because it was from God I came and am here. I did not come of myself, but he sent me.

bbe@John:8:43 @Why are my words not clear to you? It is because your ears are shut to my teaching.

bbe@John:8:44 @You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him. When he says what is false, it is natural to him, for he is false and the father of what is false.

bbe@John:8:48 @The Jews said to him in answer, Are we not right in saying that you are of Samaria and have an evil spirit?

bbe@John:8:49 @And this was the answer of Jesus: I have not an evil spirit; but I give honour to my Father and you do not give honour to me.

bbe@John:8:50 @I, however, am not in search of glory for myself: there is One who is searching for it and he is judge.

bbe@John:8:52 @The Jews said to him, Now we are certain that you have an evil spirit. Abraham is dead, and the prophets are dead; and you say, If a man keeps my word he will never see death.

bbe@John:8:54 @Jesus said in answer, If I take glory for myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who gives me glory, of whom you say that he is your God.

bbe@John:8:56 @Your father Abraham was full of joy at the hope of seeing my day: he saw it and was glad.

bbe@John:9:2 @And his disciples put a question to him, saying, Master, was it because of this man's sin, or the sin of his father and mother, that he has been blind from birth?

bbe@John:9:3 @Jesus said in answer, It was not because of his sin, or because of his father's or mother's; it was so that the works of God might be seen openly in him.

bbe@John:9:4 @While it is day we have to do the works of him who sent me: the night comes when no work may be done.

bbe@John:9:6 @Having said these words, he put earth, mixed with water from his mouth, on the man's eyes,

bbe@John:9:8 @Then the neighbours and others who had seen him before in the street, with his hand out for money, said, Is not this the man who got money from people?

bbe@John:9:9 @Some said, It is he: others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am he.

bbe@John:9:11 @His answer was: The man who is named Jesus put earth mixed with water on my eyes, and said to me, Go and make yourself clean in Siloam: so I went away and, after washing, am now able to see.

bbe@John:9:16 @Then some of the Pharisees said, That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath. Others said, How is it possible for a sinner to do such signs? So there was a division among them.

bbe@John:9:19 @And put the question to them, saying, Is this your son, of whom you say that he was blind at birth? how is it then that he is now able to see?

bbe@John:9:21 @But how it is he is now able to see, or who made his eyes open, we are not able to say: put the question to him; he is old enough to give an answer for himself.

bbe@John:9:24 @So they sent a second time for the man who had been blind and they said to him, Give glory to God: it is clear to us that this man is a sinner.

bbe@John:9:27 @His answer was: I have said it before, but your ears were shut: why would you have me say it again? is it your desire to become his disciples?

bbe@John:9:28 @And they were angry with him and said, You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

bbe@John:9:35 @It came to the ears of Jesus that they had put him out, and meeting him he said, Have you faith in the Son of man?

bbe@John:9:36 @He said in answer, And who is he, Lord? Say, so that I may have faith in him.

bbe@John:9:37 @Jesus said to him, You have seen him; it is he who is talking to you.

bbe@John:9:38 @And he said, Lord, I have faith. And he gave him worship.

bbe@John:9:40 @These words came to the ears of the Pharisees who were with him and they said to him, Are we, then, blind?

bbe@John:10:10 @The thief comes only to take the sheep and to put them to death: he comes for their destruction: I have come so that they may have life and have it in greater measure.

bbe@John:10:17 @For this reason am I loved by the Father, because I give up my life so that I may take it again.

bbe@John:10:18 @No one takes it away from me; I give it up of myself. I have power to give it up, and I have power to take it again. These orders I have from my Father.

bbe@John:10:20 @And a number of them said, He has an evil spirit and is out of his mind; why do you give ear to him?

bbe@John:10:21 @Others said, These are not the words of one who has an evil spirit. Is it possible for an evil spirit to make blind people see?

bbe@John:10:22 @Then came the feast of the opening of the Temple in Jerusalem: it was winter;

bbe@John:10:25 @Jesus said in answer, I have said it and you have no belief: the works which I do in my Father's name, these give witness about me.

bbe@John:10:35 @If he said they were gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Writings may not be broken),

bbe@John:10:42 @And a number came to have faith in him there.

bbe@John:11:2 @(The Mary whose brother Lazarus was ill, was the Mary who put perfumed oil on the Lord and made his feet dry with her hair.)

bbe@John:11:4 @When this came to his ears, Jesus said, The end of this disease is not death, but the glory of God, so that the Son of God may have glory because of it.

bbe@John:11:9 @Then Jesus said in answer, Are there not twelve hours in the day? A man may go about in the day without falling, because he sees the light of this world.

bbe@John:11:15 @And because of you I am glad I was not there, so that you may have faith; but let us go to him.

bbe@John:11:16 @Then Thomas, who was named Didymus, said to the other disciples, Let us go so that we may be with him in death.

bbe@John:11:22 @But I am certain that, even now, whatever request you make to God, God will give it to you.

bbe@John:11:25 @Jesus said to her, I am myself that day and that life; he who has faith in me will have life even if he is dead;

bbe@John:11:26 @And no one who is living and has faith in me will ever see death. Is this your faith?

bbe@John:11:27 @She said to him, Yes, Lord: my faith is that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.

bbe@John:11:31 @Then the Jews who were with her in the house, comforting her, when they saw Mary get up quickly and go out, went after her in the belief that she was going to the place of the dead and would be weeping there.

bbe@John:11:33 @And when Jesus saw her weeping, and saw the Jews weeping who came with her, his spirit was moved and he was troubled,

bbe@John:11:38 @So Jesus, deeply troubled in heart, came to the place of the dead. It was a hole in the rock, and a stone was over the opening.

bbe@John:11:40 @Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God?

bbe@John:11:42 @I was certain that your ears are at all times open to me, but I said it because of these who are here, so that they may see that you sent me.

bbe@John:11:44 @And he who was dead came out, with linen bands folded tightly about his hands and feet, and a cloth about his face. Jesus said to them, Make him free and let him go.

bbe@John:11:46 @But some of them went to the Pharisees with the news of what Jesus had done.

bbe@John:11:50 @You do not see that it is in your interest for one man to be put to death for the people, so that all the nation may not come to destruction.

bbe@John:11:52 @And not for that nation only, but for the purpose of uniting in one body the children of God all over the world.

bbe@John:11:54 @So Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near to the waste land, to a town named Ephraim, where he was for some time with the disciples.

bbe@John:12:2 @So they made him a meal there, and he was waited on by Martha, and Lazarus was among those who were seated with him at table.

bbe@John:12:3 @Then Mary, taking a pound of perfumed oil of great value, put it on the feet of Jesus and made them dry with her hair: and the house became full of the smell of the perfume.

bbe@John:12:6 @(He said this, not because he had any love for the poor; but because he was a thief, and, having the money-bag, took for himself what was put into it.)

bbe@John:12:8 @The poor you have ever with you, but me you have not for ever.

bbe@John:12:14 @And Jesus saw a young ass and took his seat on it; as the Writings say,

bbe@John:12:16 @(These things were not clear to his disciples at first: but when Jesus had been lifted up into his glory, then it came to their minds that these things in the Writings were about him and that they had been done to him.)

bbe@John:12:17 @Now the people who were with him when his voice came to Lazarus in the place of the dead, and gave him life again, had been talking about it.

bbe@John:12:18 @And that was the reason the people went out to him, because it had come to their ears that he had done this sign.

bbe@John:12:22 @Philip went and gave word of it to Andrew; and Andrew went with Philip to Jesus.

bbe@John:12:24 @Truly I say to you, If a seed of grain does not go into the earth and come to an end, it is still a seed and no more; but through its death it gives much fruit.

bbe@John:12:25 @He who is in love with life will have it taken from him; and he who has no care for his life in this world will keep it for ever and ever.

bbe@John:12:28 @Father, give glory to your name. Then there came a voice out of heaven, saying, I have given it glory, and I will give it glory again.

bbe@John:12:29 @Hearing the sound, a number of people who were there said that it was thunder: others said, An angel was talking to him.

bbe@John:12:34 @Then the people in answer said to him, The law says that the Christ will have life without end: how say you then that it is necessary for the Son of man to be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

bbe@John:12:35 @Jesus said to them, For a little time longer the light will be among you; while you have the light go on walking in it, so that the dark may not overtake you: one walking in the dark has no knowledge of where he is going.

bbe@John:12:36 @In so far as you have the light, put your faith in the light so that you may become sons of light. With these words Jesus went away and for a time was not seen again by them.

bbe@John:12:38 @So that the words of the prophet Isaiah might come true, when he said, Lord, who has any belief in our preaching? and the arm of the Lord, to whom has it been unveiled?

bbe@John:12:40 @He has made their eyes blind, and their hearts hard; for fear that they might see with their eyes and get knowledge with their hearts, and be changed, and I might make them well.

bbe@John:12:44 @Then Jesus said with a loud voice, He who has faith in me, has faith not in me, but in him who sent me.

bbe@John:12:46 @I have come as a light into the world, so that no one who has faith in me will go on living in the dark.

bbe@John:12:48 @He who puts me on one side and does not take my words to heart, is not without a judge: the word which I have said will be his judge on the last day.

bbe@John:12:49 @For I have not said it on my authority, but the Father who sent me gave me orders what to say and how to say it.

bbe@John:13:1 @Now before the feast of the Passover, it was clear to Jesus that the time had come for him to go away from this world to the Father. Having once had love for those in the world who were his, his love for them went on to the end.

bbe@John:13:2 @So while a meal was going on, the Evil One having now put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to be false to him,

bbe@John:13:4 @Got up from table, put off his robe and took a cloth and put it round him.

bbe@John:13:5 @Then he put water into a basin and was washing the feet of the disciples and drying them with the cloth which was round him.

bbe@John:13:7 @And Jesus, answering, said to him, What I do is not clear to you now, but it will be clear to you in time to come.

bbe@John:13:8 @Peter said, I will never let my feet be washed by you, never. Jesus said in answer, If I do not make you clean you have no part with me.

bbe@John:13:14 @If then I, the Lord and the Master, have made your feet clean, it is right for you to make one another's feet clean.

bbe@John:13:18 @I am not talking of you all: I have knowledge of my true disciples, but things are as they are, so that the Writings may come true, The foot of him who takes bread with me is lifted up against me.

bbe@John:13:21 @When Jesus had said this he was troubled in spirit, and gave witness, saying, Truly I say to you, that one of you will be false to me.

bbe@John:13:24 @Making a sign to him, Simon Peter said, Who is it he is talking about?

bbe@John:13:25 @He, then, resting his head on Jesus' breast, said to him, Lord, who is it?

bbe@John:13:26 @This was the answer Jesus gave: It is the one to whom I will give this bit of bread after I have put it in the vessel. Then he took the bit of bread, put it into the vessel, and gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

bbe@John:13:28 @Now it was not clear to anyone at table why he said this to him.

bbe@John:13:30 @So Judas, having taken the bit of bread, straight away went out: and it was night.

bbe@John:13:33 @My dear children, I am only to be with you a little longer. Then you will be looking for me: and as I said to the Jews, so now I say to you, Where I am going you may not come.

bbe@John:13:35 @By this it will be clear to all men that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.

bbe@John:13:36 @Simon Peter said to him, Lord, where are you going? Jesus said in answer, Where I am going you may not come with me now, but you will come later.

bbe@John:13:37 @Peter said to him, Why may I not come with you even now? I will give up my life for you.

bbe@John:14:1 @Let not your heart be troubled: have faith in God and have faith in me.

bbe@John:14:2 @In my Father's house are rooms enough; if it was not so, would I have said that I am going to make ready a place for you?

bbe@John:14:3 @And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come back again and will take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am.

bbe@John:14:4 @And you all have knowledge of where I am going, and of the way to it.

bbe@John:14:9 @Jesus said to him, Philip, have I been with you all this time, and still you have no knowledge of me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. Why do you say, Let us see the Father?

bbe@John:14:10 @Have you not faith that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words which I say to you, I say not from myself: but the Father who is in me all the time does his works.

bbe@John:14:11 @Have faith that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me: at least, have faith in me because of what I do.

bbe@John:14:12 @Truly I say to you, He who puts his faith in me will do the very works which I do, and he will do greater things than these, because I am going to my Father.

bbe@John:14:14 @If you make any request to me in my name, I will do it.

bbe@John:14:16 @And I will make prayer to the Father and he will give you another Helper to be with you for ever,

bbe@John:14:17 @Even the Spirit of true knowledge

bbe@John:14:18 @I will not let you be without a friend: I am coming to you.

bbe@John:14:19 @A little time longer, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me; and you will be living because I am living.

bbe@John:14:20 @At that time it will be clear to you that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I in you.

bbe@John:14:21 @He who has my laws and keeps them, he it is who has love for me: and he who has love for me will be loved by my Father, and I will have love for him and will let myself be seen clearly by him.

bbe@John:14:22 @Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, How is it that you will let yourself be seen clearly by us and not by the world?

bbe@John:14:23 @Jesus said to him in answer, If anyone has love for me, he will keep my words: and he will be dear to my Father; and we will come to him and make our living-place with him.

bbe@John:14:25 @I have said all this to you while I am still with you.

bbe@John:14:26 @But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will be your teacher in all things and will put you in mind of everything I have said to you.

bbe@John:14:27 @May peace be with you; my peace I give to you: I give it not as the world gives. Let not your heart be troubled; let it be without fear.

bbe@John:14:29 @And now I have given you word of it before it comes, so that, when it comes, you may have faith.

bbe@John:15:2 @He takes away every branch in me which has no fruit, and every branch which has fruit he makes clean, so that it may have more fruit.

bbe@John:15:4 @Be in me at all times as I am in you. As the branch is not able to give fruit of itself, if it is not still on the vine, so you are not able to do so if you are not in me.

bbe@John:15:5 @I am the vine, you are the branches: he who is in me at all times as I am in him, gives much fruit, because without me you are able to do nothing.

bbe@John:15:8 @Here is my Father's glory, in that you give much fruit and so are my true disciples.

bbe@John:15:15 @No longer do I give you the name of servants; because a servant is without knowledge of what his master is doing: I give you the name of friends, because I have given you knowledge of all the things which my Father has said to me.

bbe@John:15:16 @You did not take me for yourselves, but I took you for myself; and I gave you the work of going about and producing fruit which will be for ever; so that whatever request you make to the Father in my name he may give it to you.

bbe@John:15:25 @This comes about so that the writing in their law may be made true, Their hate for me was without cause.

bbe@John:15:26 @When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father even the Spirit of true knowledge who comes from the Father--he will give witness about me;

bbe@John:15:27 @And you, in addition, will give witness because you have been with me from the first.

bbe@John:16:4 @I have said these things to you so that when the time comes, what I have said may come to your mind. I did not say them to you at the first, because then I was still with you.

bbe@John:16:9 @Of sin, because they have not faith in me;

bbe@John:16:12 @I have still much to say to you, but you are not strong enough for it now.

bbe@John:16:13 @However, when he, the Spirit of true knowledge, has come, he will be your guide into all true knowledge: for his words will not come from himself, but whatever has come to his hearing, that he will say: and he will make clear to you the things to come.

bbe@John:16:14 @He will give me glory, because he will take of what is mine, and make it clear to you.

bbe@John:16:15 @Everything which the Father has is mine: that is why I say, He will take of what is mine and will make it clear to you.

bbe@John:16:16 @After a little time you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me.

bbe@John:16:17 @So some of the disciples said one to another, What is this he is saying, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me? and, I am going to the Father?

bbe@John:16:18 @So they said again and again, What is this he is saying, A little time? His words are not clear to us.

bbe@John:16:19 @Jesus saw that they had a desire to put the question to him, so he said to them, Is this what you are questioning one with another, why I said, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me?

bbe@John:16:23 @And on that day you will put no questions to me. Truly I say to you, Whatever request you make to the Father, he will give it to you in my name.

bbe@John:16:24 @Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.

bbe@John:16:27 @For the Father himself gives his love to you, because you have given your love to me and have had faith that I came from God.

bbe@John:16:30 @Now we are certain that you have knowledge of all things and have no need for anyone to put questions to you: through this we have faith that you came from God.

bbe@John:16:31 @Jesus made answer, Have you faith now?

bbe@John:16:32 @See, a time is coming, yes, it is now here, when you will go away in all directions, every man to his house, and I will be by myself: but I am not by myself, because the Father is with me.

bbe@John:17:2 @Even as you gave him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all those whom you have given to him.

bbe@John:17:5 @And now, Father, let me have glory with you, even that glory which I had with you before the world was.

bbe@John:17:7 @Now it is clear to them that whatever you have given to me comes from you:

bbe@John:17:8 @Because I have given them the words which you gave to me; and they have taken them to heart, and have certain knowledge that I came from you, and they have faith that you sent me.

bbe@John:17:12 @While I was with them I kept them safe in your name which you have given to me: I took care of them and not one of them has come to destruction, but only the son of destruction, so that the Writings might come true.

bbe@John:17:20 @My prayer is not for them only, but for all who will have faith in me through their word;

bbe@John:17:21 @May they all be one! Even as you, Father, are in me and I am in you, so let them be in us, so that all men may come to have faith that you sent me.

bbe@John:17:23 @I in them, and you in me, so that they may be made completely one, and so that it may become clear to all men that you have sent me and that they are loved by you as I am loved by you

bbe@John:17:24 @Father, it is my desire that these whom you have given to me may be by my side where I am, so that they may see my glory which you have given to me, because you had love for me before the world came into being.

bbe@John:17:25 @Father of righteousness, I have knowledge of you, though the world has not; and to these it is clear that you sent me;

bbe@John:17:26 @And I have given to them knowledge of your name, and will give it, so that the love which you have for me may be in them and I in them.

bbe@John:18:1 @When Jesus had said these words he went out with his disciples over the stream Kedron to a garden, into which he went with his disciples.

bbe@John:18:2 @And Judas, who was false to him, had knowledge of the place because Jesus went there frequently with his disciples.

bbe@John:18:3 @So Judas, getting a band of armed men and police from the chief priests and Pharisees, went there with lights and with arms.

bbe@John:18:10 @Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, took it out and gave the high priest's servant a blow, cutting off his right ear

bbe@John:18:14 @It was Caiaphas who had said to the Jews that it was in their interest for one man to be put to death for the people.

bbe@John:18:15 @And Simon Peter went after Jesus with another disciple. Now that disciple was a friend of the high priest and he went in with Jesus into the house of the high priest;

bbe@John:18:16 @But Peter was kept outside at the door. Then this other disciple, who was a friend of the high priest, came out and had a word with the girl who kept the door, and took Peter in.

bbe@John:18:18 @Now the servants and the police had made a fire of coals because it was cold; they were warming themselves in front of it and Peter was there with them, warming himself.

bbe@John:18:22 @When he said this, one of the police by his side gave him a blow with his open hand, saying, Do you give such an answer to the high priest?

bbe@John:18:23 @Jesus said in answer, If I have said anything evil, give witness to the evil: but if I said what is true, why do you give me blows?

bbe@John:18:26 @One of the servants of the high priest, a relation of him whose ear had been cut off by Peter, said, Did I not see you with him in the garden?

bbe@John:18:27 @Then again Peter said, No. And straight away a cock gave its cry.

bbe@John:18:28 @So they took Jesus from the house of Caiaphas to the Praetorium. It was early. They themselves did not go into the Praetorium, so that they might not become unclean, but might take the Passover.

bbe@John:18:34 @Jesus made answer, Do you say this of yourself, or did others say it about me?

bbe@John:18:37 @Then Pilate said to him, Are you then a king? Jesus made answer, You say that I am a king. For this purpose was I given birth, and for this purpose I came into the world, that I might give witness to what is true. Every lover of what is true gives ear to my voice.

bbe@John:18:39 @But every year you make a request to me to let a prisoner go free at the Passover. Is it your desire that I let the King of the Jews go free?

bbe@John:19:1 @Then Pilate took Jesus and had him whipped with cords.

bbe@John:19:2 @And the men of the army made a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and they put a purple robe on him.

bbe@John:19:3 @And they kept coming and saying, Long life to the King of the Jews! And they gave him blows with their hands.

bbe@John:19:4 @And Pilate went out again and said to them, See, I let him come out to you to make it clear to you that I see no wrong in him.

bbe@John:19:5 @Then Jesus came out with the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them, Here is the man!

bbe@John:19:7 @And the Jews made answer, We have a law, and by that law it is right for him to be put to death because he said he was the Son of God.

bbe@John:19:10 @Then Pilate said to him, You say nothing to me? is it not clear to you that I have power to let you go free and power to put you to death on the cross?

bbe@John:19:11 @Jesus gave this answer: You would have no power at all over me if it was not given to you by God; so that he who gave me up to you has the greater sin.

bbe@John:19:14 @(It was the day when they made ready for the Passover; and it was about the sixth hour.) And he said to the Jews, There is your King!

bbe@John:19:15 @Then they gave a loud cry, Away with him! away with him! to the cross! Pilate said to them, Am I to put your King to death on the cross? The chief priests said in answer, We have no king but Caesar.

bbe@John:19:17 @And he went out with his cross on him to the place which is named Dead Man's Head (in Hebrew, Golgotha):

bbe@John:19:18 @Where they put him on the cross with two others, one on this side and one on that, and Jesus in the middle.

bbe@John:19:19 @And Pilate put on the cross a statement in writing. The writing was: JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

bbe@John:19:20 @The writing was seen by a number of the Jews, for the place where Jesus was put to death on the cross was near the town; and the writing was in Hebrew and Latin and Greek.

bbe@John:19:22 @But Pilate made answer, What I have put in writing will not be changed.

bbe@John:19:23 @And when Jesus was nailed to the cross, the men of the army took his clothing, and made a division of it into four parts, to every man a part, and they took his coat: now the coat was without a join, made out of one bit of cloth.

bbe@John:19:24 @So they said among themselves, Let this not be cut up, but let us put it to the decision of chance and see who gets it. (They did this so that the Writings might come true, which say, They made a distribution of my clothing among them, and my coat they put to the decision of chance.) This was what the men of the army did.

bbe@John:19:28 @After this, being conscious that all things had now been done so that the Writings might come true, Jesus said, Give me water.

bbe@John:19:29 @Now there was a vessel ready, full of bitter wine, and they put a sponge full of it on a stick and put it to his mouth.

bbe@John:19:30 @So when Jesus had taken the wine he said, All is done. And with his head bent he gave up his spirit.

bbe@John:19:31 @Now it was the day of getting ready for the Passover, and so that the bodies might not be on the cross on the Sabbath (because the day of that Sabbath was a great day), the Jews made a request to Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

bbe@John:19:32 @So the men of the army came, and the legs of the first were broken and then of the other who was put to death on the cross with Jesus:

bbe@John:19:34 @But one of the men made a wound in his side with a spear, and straight away there came out blood and water.

bbe@John:19:35 @And he who saw it has given witness (and his witness is true; he is certain that what he says is true) so that you may have belief.

bbe@John:19:36 @These things came about so that the Writings might be true, No bone of his body will be broken.

bbe@John:19:39 @And Nicodemus came (he who had first come to Jesus by night) with a roll of myrrh and aloes mixed, about a hundred pounds.

bbe@John:19:40 @Then they took the body of Jesus, folding linen about it with the spices, as is the way of the Jews when they put the dead to rest.

bbe@John:19:42 @So they put Jesus there, because it was the Jews' day of getting ready for the Passover, and the place was near.

bbe@John:20:1 @Now on the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the place and saw that the stone had been taken away from it.

bbe@John:20:7 @And the cloth, which had been round his head, not with the linen bands but rolled up in a place by itself.

bbe@John:20:9 @For at that time they had no knowledge that the Writings said that he would have to come again from the dead.

bbe@John:20:12 @She saw two angels in white seated where the body of Jesus had been, one at the head and the other at the feet

bbe@John:20:14 @And then looking round, she saw Jesus there, but had no idea that it was Jesus.

bbe@John:20:18 @Mary Magdalene went with the news to the disciples, and said she had seen the Lord and that he had said these things to her.

bbe@John:20:19 @At evening on that day, the first day of the week, when, for fear of the Jews, the doors were shut where the disciples were, Jesus came among them and said to them, May peace be with you!

bbe@John:20:21 @And Jesus said to them again, May peace be with you! As the Father sent me, even so I now send you.

bbe@John:20:22 @And when he had said this, breathing on them, he said to them, Let the Holy Spirit come on you:

bbe@John:20:24 @Now Thomas, one of the twelve, named Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

bbe@John:20:26 @And after eight days, his disciples were again in the house and Thomas was with them. Though the doors were shut, Jesus came, and taking his place in the middle of them, he said, May peace be with you!

bbe@John:20:31 @But these are recorded, so that you may have faith that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and so that, having this faith you may have life in his name.

bbe@John:21:1 @After these things Jesus let himself be seen again by the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and it came about in this way.

bbe@John:21:3 @Simon Peter said to them, I am going fishing. They said to him, And we will come with you. They went out and got into the boat; but that night they took no fish.

bbe@John:21:4 @Now very early in the morning Jesus was there by the edge of the sea (though the disciples were not conscious that it was Jesus).

bbe@John:21:6 @And he said to them, Let down the net on the right side of the boat and you will get some. So they put it in the water and now they were not able to get it up again because of the great number of fish.

bbe@John:21:7 @So the disciple who was dear to Jesus said to Peter, It is the Lord! Hearing that it was the Lord, Peter put his coat round him (because he was not clothed) and went into the sea.

bbe@John:21:8 @And the other disciples came in the little boat (they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits off) pulling the net full of fish.

bbe@John:21:9 @When they got to land, they saw a fire of coals there, with fish cooking on it, and bread.

bbe@John:21:12 @Jesus said to them, Come and take some food. And all the disciples were in fear of putting the question, Who are you? being conscious that it was the Lord.

bbe@John:21:13 @Then Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and the fish in the same way.

bbe@John:21:20 @Then Peter, turning round, saw the disciple who was dear to Jesus coming after them--the disciple who was resting on his breast at the last meal, and said, Lord, who is it who will be false to you?

bbe@John:21:22 @Jesus said to him, If it is my desire for him to be here till I come back, what is that to you? come yourself after me.

bbe@John:21:23 @So this saying went about among the brothers that this disciple would not undergo death: Jesus, however, did not say that he would not undergo death, but, If it is my desire for him to be here till I come back, what is that to you?

bbe@John:21:24 @This is the disciple who gives witness about these things and who put them in writing: and we have knowledge that his witness is true.

bbe@John:21:25 @And Jesus did such a number of other things that, if every one was recorded, it is my opinion that even the world itself is not great enough for the books there would be.

bbe@Acts:1:2 @Till the day when he was taken up to heaven after he had given his orders, through the Holy Spirit, to the Apostles of whom he had made selection:

bbe@Acts:1:4 @And when they were all together, with him, he gave them orders not to go away from Jerusalem, but to keep there, waiting till the word of the Father was put into effect, of which, he said, I have given you knowledge:

bbe@Acts:1:5 @For the baptism of John was with water, but you will have baptism with the Holy Spirit, after a little time.

bbe@Acts:1:7 @And he said to them, It is not for you to have knowledge of the time and the order of events which the Father has kept in his control.

bbe@Acts:1:8 @But you will have power, when the Holy Spirit has come on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judaea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

bbe@Acts:1:10 @And while they were looking up to heaven with great attention, two men came to them, in white clothing,

bbe@Acts:1:14 @And they all with one mind gave themselves up to prayer, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers.

bbe@Acts:1:16 @My brothers, the word of God had to be put into effect, which the Holy Spirit had said before, by the mouth of David, about Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus,

bbe@Acts:1:18 @(Now this man, with the reward of his evil-doing, got for himself a field, and falling head first, came to a sudden and violent end there.

bbe@Acts:1:20 @For in the book of Psalms it says, Let his house be waste, and let no man be living in it: and, Let his position be taken by another.

bbe@Acts:1:21 @For this reason, of the men who have been with us all the time, while the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

bbe@Acts:1:22 @Starting from the baptism of John till he went up from us, one will have to be a witness with us of his coming back from death.

bbe@Acts:1:25 @To take that position as a servant and Apostle, from which Judas by his sin was shut out, so that he might go to his place.

bbe@Acts:1:26 @And they put it to the decision of chance, and the decision was given for Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven Apostles.

bbe@Acts:2:2 @And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like the rushing of a violent wind, and all the house where they were was full of it.

bbe@Acts:2:4 @And they were all full of the Holy Spirit, and were talking in different languages, as the Spirit gave them power.

bbe@Acts:2:8 @And how is it that every one of us is hearing their words in the language which was ours from our birth?

bbe@Acts:2:14 @But Peter, getting up, with the eleven, said in a loud voice, O men of Judaea, and all you who are living in Jerusalem, take note of this and give ear to my words.

bbe@Acts:2:15 @For these men are not overcome with wine, as it seems to you, for it is only the third hour of the day;

bbe@Acts:2:17 @And it will come about, in the last days, says God, that I will send out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will be prophets, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will have dreams:

bbe@Acts:2:18 @And on my men-servants and my women-servants I will send my Spirit, and they will be prophets.

bbe@Acts:2:24 @But God gave him back to life, having made him free from the pains of death because it was not possible for him to be overcome by it.

bbe@Acts:2:29 @My brothers, I may say to you openly that David came to his death, and was put in the earth, and his resting-place is with us today.

bbe@Acts:2:30 @But being a prophet, and having in mind the oath which God had given to him, that of the fruit of his body one would take his place as a king,

bbe@Acts:2:32 @This Jesus God has given back to life, of which we all are witnesses.

bbe@Acts:2:33 @And so, being lifted up to the right hand of God, and having the Father's word that the Holy Spirit would come, he has sent this thing, which now you see and have knowledge of.

bbe@Acts:2:38 @And Peter said, Let your hearts be changed, every one of you, and have baptism in the name of Jesus Christ, for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will have the Holy Spirit given to you.

bbe@Acts:2:40 @And with more such words he gave his witness, offering them salvation and saying, Come out from this evil generation.

bbe@Acts:2:42 @And they kept their attention fixed on the Apostles' teaching and were united together in the taking of broken bread and in prayer.

bbe@Acts:2:44 @And all those who were of the faith kept together, and had all things in common;

bbe@Acts:2:45 @And exchanging their goods and property for money, they made division of it among them all, as they had need.

bbe@Acts:2:46 @And day by day, going in agreement together regularly to the Temple and, taking broken bread together in their houses, they took their food with joy and with true hearts,

bbe@Acts:3:4 @And Peter, looking at him, with John, said, Keep your eyes on us.

bbe@Acts:3:8 @And, jumping up, he got on to his feet and went into the Temple with them, walking and jumping and giving praise to God.

bbe@Acts:3:10 @And they saw that it was the man who made requests for money at the door of the Temple, and they were full of wonder and surprise at what had taken place

bbe@Acts:3:12 @And when Peter saw it he said to the people, You men of Israel, why are you so greatly surprised at this man? or why are you looking at us as if by our power or virtue we had given him the use of his legs?

bbe@Acts:3:14 @But you would have nothing to do with the Holy and Upright One, and made request for a man of blood to be given to you,

bbe@Acts:3:15 @And put to death the Lord of life; whom God gave back from the dead; of which fact we are witnesses.

bbe@Acts:3:16 @And his name, through faith in his name, has made this man strong, whom you see and have knowledge of: yes, the faith which is through him has made him well, before you all.

bbe@Acts:3:17 @And now, my brothers, I am conscious that you did this, as did your rulers, without knowledge.

bbe@Acts:3:25 @You are the sons of the prophets, and of the agreement which God made with your fathers, saying to Abraham, Through your seed a blessing will come on all the families of the earth.

bbe@Acts:4:3 @And they took them and put them in prison till the morning, for it was now evening.

bbe@Acts:4:4 @But a number of those who gave hearing to the word had faith; and they were now about five thousand.

bbe@Acts:4:5 @And on the day after, the rulers and those in authority and the scribes came together in Jerusalem;

bbe@Acts:4:8 @Then Peter, being full of the Holy Spirit, said to them, O you rulers of the people and men of authority,

bbe@Acts:4:13 @Now when they saw that Peter and John were without fear, though they were men of no education or learning, they were greatly surprised; and they took note of them that they had been with Jesus.

bbe@Acts:4:14 @And, seeing that the man who had been made well was there with them, they were not able to say anything against it.

bbe@Acts:4:16 @Saying, What are we to do with these men? for certainly it is clear to all who are living in Jerusalem that a most important sign has been done by them, and it is not possible to say that it is not so.

bbe@Acts:4:17 @But so that it may not go farther among the people, let us put them in fear of punishment if they say anything in future in this name.

bbe@Acts:4:19 @But Peter and John in answer said to them, It is for you to say if it is right in the eyes of God to give attention to you more than to God:

bbe@Acts:4:20 @For it is not possible for us to keep from saying what we have seen and have knowledge of.

bbe@Acts:4:23 @And when they had been made free, they came back to their friends, and gave an account of all the things which the chief priests and the authorities had said to them.

bbe@Acts:4:24 @And hearing it, they all, with one mind, made prayer to God and said, O Lord, maker of heaven and earth and the sea and all things in them:

bbe@Acts:4:25 @Who has said, by the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David your servant, Why are the nations so violently moved, and why are the thoughts of the people so foolish?

bbe@Acts:4:27 @For, truly, in this town, against your holy servant, Jesus, who was marked out by you as Christ, Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, came together,

bbe@Acts:4:29 @And now, Lord, take note of their cruel words, and give your servants power to be preachers of your word without fear,

bbe@Acts:4:31 @And when their prayer was ended, the place where they were was violently moved, and they all became full of the Holy Spirit, preaching the word of God without fear.

bbe@Acts:4:32 @And all those who were of the faith were one in heart and soul: and not one of them said that any of the things which he had was his property only; but they had all things in common.

bbe@Acts:4:33 @And with great power the Apostles gave witness of the coming back of the Lord Jesus from the dead; and grace was on them all.

bbe@Acts:4:35 @And put it at the feet of the Apostles for distribution to everyone as he had need.

bbe@Acts:4:36 @And Joseph, who was given by the Apostles the name of Barnabas (the sense of which is, Son of comfort), a Levite and a man of Cyprus by birth,

bbe@Acts:4:37 @Having a field, got money for it and put the money at the feet of the Apostles.

bbe@Acts:5:1 @But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, got money for his property,

bbe@Acts:5:2 @And kept back part of the price, his wife having knowledge of it, and took the rest and put it at the feet of the Apostles.

bbe@Acts:5:3 @But Peter said, Ananias, why has the Evil One put it into your heart to be false to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back part of the price of the land?

bbe@Acts:5:4 @While you had it, was it not your property? and after you had given it in exchange, was it not still in your power? how has this purpose come into your mind? you have been false, not to men, but to God.

bbe@Acts:5:6 @And the young men went and made ready his body, and took it out, and put it in the earth.

bbe@Acts:5:8 @And Peter said to her, Give me an answer: was this amount of money the price of the land? And she said, Yes, it was.

bbe@Acts:5:9 @But Peter said to her, Why have you made an agreement together to be false to the Spirit of the Lord? See, the feet of the young men who have put the body of your husband in the earth, are at the door, and they will take you out.

bbe@Acts:5:10 @And straight away she went down at his feet, and her life went from her: and the young men came in and saw her dead, and they took her out and put her in the earth with her husband.

bbe@Acts:5:14 @And a great number of men and women had faith, and were joined to the Lord;

bbe@Acts:5:16 @And numbers of people came together from the towns round about Jerusalem, with those who were ill and those who were troubled with unclean spirits: and they were all made well.

bbe@Acts:5:17 @But the high priest and those who were with him (the Sadducees) were full of envy,

bbe@Acts:5:21 @And hearing this, they went into the Temple at dawn, and were teaching. But the high priest and those who were with him got together the Sanhedrin and the representatives of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to get them.

bbe@Acts:5:22 @But the men who were sent saw that they were not in the prison, and came back with the news,

bbe@Acts:5:32 @And we are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who keep his laws.

bbe@Acts:5:34 @But one of the Sanhedrin, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a man of learning in the law, of whom all the people had a high opinion, got up and made a suggestion for the men to be put outside for a little time.

bbe@Acts:5:38 @And now I say to you, Do nothing to these men, but let them be: for if this teaching or this work is of men, it will come to nothing:

bbe@Acts:5:39 @But if it is of God, you will not be able to overcome them, and you are in danger of fighting against God.

bbe@Acts:6:2 @And the Apostles sent for all the disciples and said, It is not right for us to give up preaching the word of God in order to make distribution of food.

bbe@Acts:6:3 @Take then from among you seven men of good name, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, to whom we may give control of this business.

bbe@Acts:6:5 @And this saying was pleasing to all of them: and they made selection of Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip and Prochorus and Nicanor and Timon and Parmenas and Nicolas of Antioch, who had become a Jew:

bbe@Acts:6:7 @And the word of God was increasing in power; and the number of the disciples in Jerusalem became very great, and a great number of priests were in agreement with the faith.

bbe@Acts:6:9 @But some of those who were of the Synagogue named that of the Libertines, and some of the men of Cyrene and of Alexandria and those from Cilicia and Asia, had arguments with Stephen.

bbe@Acts:6:10 @But they were not able to get the better of him, for his words were full of wisdom and of the Spirit.

bbe@Acts:6:12 @And the people, with the rulers and the scribes, were moved against him, and they came and took him before the Sanhedrin,

bbe@Acts:6:13 @And they got false witnesses who said, This man is for ever saying things against this holy place and against the law:

bbe@Acts:7:5 @And God gave him no heritage in it, not even enough to put his foot on: but he gave him an undertaking that he would give it to him and to his children after him, though he had no child at that time.

bbe@Acts:7:8 @And he made with him the agreement of which circumcision was the sign. And so Abraham had a son, Isaac, and gave him circumcision on the eighth day; and Isaac had a son, Jacob, and Jacob was the father of the twelve heads of the families of Israel.

bbe@Acts:7:9 @And the brothers, moved with envy against Joseph, gave him to the Egyptians for money: but God was with him,

bbe@Acts:7:13 @And the second time his brothers had a meeting with Joseph, and Pharaoh had knowledge of Joseph's family.

bbe@Acts:7:23 @But when he was almost forty years old, it came into his heart to go and see his brothers, the children of Israel.

bbe@Acts:7:31 @And Moses, seeing it, was full of wonder, and when he came up to have a nearer view of it, the voice of the Lord came to him, saying,

bbe@Acts:7:32 @I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob. And Moses, shaking with fear, kept his eyes from looking at it.

bbe@Acts:7:38 @This is the man who was in the church in the waste land with the angel who was talking to him in Sinai, and with our fathers; and to him were given the living words of God, so that he might give them to you.

bbe@Acts:7:41 @And they made the image of a young ox in those days, and made an offering to it, and had joy in the work of their hands.

bbe@Acts:7:42 @But God was turned from them and let them give worship to the stars of heaven, as it says in the book of the prophets, Did you make offerings to me of sheep and oxen for forty years in the waste land, O house of Israel?

bbe@Acts:7:44 @Our fathers had the Tent of witness in the waste land, as God gave orders to Moses to make it after the design which he had seen.

bbe@Acts:7:45 @Which our fathers, in their turn, took with them when, with Joshua, they came into the heritage of the nations whom God was driving out before the face of our fathers, till the time of David,

bbe@Acts:7:48 @But still, the Most High has not his resting-place in houses made with hands, as the prophet says,

bbe@Acts:7:51 @You whose hearts are hard and whose ears are shut to me; you are ever working against the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you.

bbe@Acts:7:53 @You, to whom the law was given as it was ordered by angels, and who have not kept it.

bbe@Acts:7:54 @Hearing these things, they were cut to the heart and moved with wrath against him.

bbe@Acts:7:55 @But he was full of the Holy Spirit, and looking up to heaven, he saw the glory of God and Jesus at the right hand of God.

bbe@Acts:7:57 @But with loud cries, and stopping their ears, they made an attack on him all together,

bbe@Acts:7:58 @Driving him out of the town and stoning him: and the witnesses put their clothing at the feet of a young man named Saul.

bbe@Acts:7:59 @And Stephen, while he was being stoned, made prayer to God, saying, Lord Jesus, take my spirit.

bbe@Acts:8:2 @And God-fearing men put Stephen's body in its last resting-place, making great weeping over him.

bbe@Acts:8:3 @But Saul was burning with hate against the church, going into every house and taking men and women and putting them in prison.

bbe@Acts:8:7 @For unclean spirits came out from those who had them, crying with a loud voice; and a number of those who were ill and broken in body were made well.

bbe@Acts:8:12 @But when they had faith in the good news given by Philip about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, a number of men and women had baptism.

bbe@Acts:8:13 @And Simon himself had faith and, having had baptism, he went with Philip and, seeing the signs and the great wonders which he did, he was full of surprise.

bbe@Acts:8:15 @Who, when they came there, made prayer for them, that the Holy Spirit might be given to them:

bbe@Acts:8:17 @Then they put their hands on them, and the Holy Spirit came on them.

bbe@Acts:8:18 @Now when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the touch of the Apostles' hands, he made them an offering of money, saying,

bbe@Acts:8:19 @Give me this power, so that when I put my hands on anyone he may get the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Acts:8:20 @But Peter said, May your money come to destruction with you, because you had the idea that what is freely given by God may be got for a price.

bbe@Acts:8:23 @For I see that you are prisoned in bitter envy and the chains of sin.

bbe@Acts:8:25 @So they, having given their witness and made clear the word of the Lord, went back to Jerusalem, giving the good news on their way in a number of the small towns of Samaria.

bbe@Acts:8:27 @And he went and there was a man of Ethiopia, a servant of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, and controller of all her property, who had come up to Jerusalem for worship;

bbe@Acts:8:29 @And the Spirit said to Philip, Go near, and get on his carriage.

bbe@Acts:8:32 @Now the place in the book where he was reading was this: He was taken, like a sheep, to be put to death; and as a lamb is quiet when its wool is being cut, so he made no sound:

bbe@Acts:8:35 @So Philip, starting from this writing, gave him the good news about Jesus.

bbe@Acts:8:39 @And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord took Philip away; and the Ethiopian saw him no more, for he went on his way full of joy.

bbe@Acts:9:1 @But Saul, still burning with desire to put to death the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,

bbe@Acts:9:6 @But get up, and go into the town, and it will be made clear to you what you have to do.

bbe@Acts:9:7 @And the men who were with him were not able to say anything; hearing the voice, but seeing no one.

bbe@Acts:9:14 @And here he has authority from the chief priests to make prisoners all who give worship to your name.

bbe@Acts:9:15 @But the Lord said, Go without fear: for he is a special vessel for me, to give to the Gentiles and kings and to the children of Israel the knowledge of my name:

bbe@Acts:9:17 @And Ananias went out and came to the house, and putting his hands on him, said, Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, whom you saw when you were on your journey, has sent me, so that you may be able to see, and be full of the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Acts:9:18 @And straight away it seemed as if a veil was taken from his eyes, and he was able to see; and he got up, and had baptism;

bbe@Acts:9:19 @And when he had taken food his strength came back. And for some days he kept with the disciples who were in Damascus.

bbe@Acts:9:22 @But Saul went on increasing in power, and the Jews in Damascus were not able to give answers to the arguments by which he made it clear that Jesus was the Christ.

bbe@Acts:9:27 @But Barnabas took him to the Apostles and gave them an account of how he had seen the Lord on the road, and had given hearing to his words, and how at Damascus he had been preaching in the name of Jesus without fear.

bbe@Acts:9:28 @And he was with them, going in and out at Jerusalem,

bbe@Acts:9:29 @Preaching in the name of the Lord without fear; and he had discussions with the Greek Jews; but they were working for his death.

bbe@Acts:9:30 @And when the brothers had knowledge of it, they took him to Caesarea and sent him to Tarsus.

bbe@Acts:9:31 @And so the church through all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria had peace and was made strong; and, living in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, was increased greatly.

bbe@Acts:9:32 @And it came about that while Peter was going through all parts of the country he came to the saints who were living at Lydda.

bbe@Acts:9:33 @And there was a certain man there, named Aeneas, who for eight years had been in bed, without power of moving.

bbe@Acts:9:36 @Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, that is, Dorcas: this woman was given to good works and acts of mercy at all times.

bbe@Acts:9:37 @And it came about, in those days, that she got ill and came to her death: and when she had been washed, they put her in a room which was high up.

bbe@Acts:9:39 @And Peter went with them. And when he had come, they took him into the room: and all the widows were there, weeping and putting before him the coats and clothing which Dorcas had made while she was with them.

bbe@Acts:9:40 @But Peter made them all go outside, and went down on his knees in prayer; and turning to the body, he said, Tabitha, get up. And, opening her eyes, she saw Peter and got up.

bbe@Acts:9:42 @And news of it went all through Joppa, and a number of people had faith in the Lord.

bbe@Acts:9:43 @And he was living in Joppa for some time with Simon, a leather-worker.

bbe@Acts:10:1 @Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, named Cornelius, the captain of the Italian band of the army;

bbe@Acts:10:2 @A serious-minded man, fearing God with all his family; he gave much money to the poor, and made prayer to God at all times.

bbe@Acts:10:4 @And he, looking on him in fear, said, What is it, Lord? And he said to him, Your prayers and your offerings have come up to God, and he has kept them in mind.

bbe@Acts:10:6 @Who is living with Simon, a leather-worker, whose house is by the sea.

bbe@Acts:10:7 @And when the angel who said these words to him had gone away, he sent for two of his house-servants, and a God-fearing man of the army, one of those who were waiting on him at all times;

bbe@Acts:10:10 @And he was in need of food: but while they were getting it ready, a deep sleep came on him;

bbe@Acts:10:19 @And, while Peter was turning the vision over in his mind, the Spirit said to him, See, three men are looking for you.

bbe@Acts:10:20 @Go down, then, and go with them, doubting nothing, for I have sent them.

bbe@Acts:10:23 @So he took them in for the night. And the day after, he went with them, taking some of the brothers from Joppa with him.

bbe@Acts:10:24 @And the day after that, they came to Caesarea. And Cornelius was waiting for them, having got together his relations and his near friends.

bbe@Acts:10:28 @And he said to them, You yourselves have knowledge that it is against the law for a man who is a Jew to be in the company of one who is of another nation; but God has made it clear to me that no man may be named common or unclean:

bbe@Acts:10:29 @And so I came without question, when I was sent for. What then is your purpose in sending for me?

bbe@Acts:10:38 @About Jesus of Nazareth, how God gave the Holy Spirit to him, with power: and how he went about doing good and making well all who were troubled by evil spirits, for God was with him.

bbe@Acts:10:39 @And we are witnesses of all the things which he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they put to death, hanging him on a tree.

bbe@Acts:10:41 @Not by all the people, but by witnesses marked out before by God, even by us, who took food and drink with him after he came back from the dead.

bbe@Acts:10:42 @And he gave us orders to give news of this to the people, and to give public witness that this is he whom God has made judge of the living and the dead.

bbe@Acts:10:43 @To him all the prophets give witness, that through his name everyone who has faith in him will have forgiveness of sins.

bbe@Acts:10:44 @While Peter was saying these words, the Holy Spirit came on all those who were hearing the word.

bbe@Acts:10:45 @And the Jews of the faith, who had come with Peter, were full of wonder, because the Holy Spirit was given to the Gentiles,

bbe@Acts:10:47 @Will any man say that these may not have baptism who have been given the Holy Spirit as we have?

bbe@Acts:10:48 @And he gave orders for them to have baptism in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they kept him with them for some days.

bbe@Acts:11:2 @And when Peter came to Jerusalem, those who kept the rule of circumcision had an argument with him,

bbe@Acts:11:3 @Saying, You went to men without circumcision, and took food with them.

bbe@Acts:11:4 @But Peter gave them an account of it all in order, saying to them,

bbe@Acts:11:5 @I was in the town of Joppa, at prayer: and falling into a deep sleep, I saw in a vision a vessel like a great cloth let down from heaven, and it came down to me:

bbe@Acts:11:6 @And looking on it with attention I saw in it all sorts of beasts and birds.

bbe@Acts:11:12 @And the Spirit gave me orders to go with them, doubting nothing. And these six brothers came with me; and we went into that man's house:

bbe@Acts:11:15 @And, while I was talking to them, the Holy Spirit came on them, as on us at first.

bbe@Acts:11:16 @And the words of the Lord came into my mind, how he said, The baptism of John was with water, but you will have baptism with the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Acts:11:17 @If then God gave them, when they had faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the same as he gave to us, who was I to go against God?

bbe@Acts:11:21 @And the power of the Lord was with them, and a great number had faith and were turned to the Lord.

bbe@Acts:11:23 @Who, when he came and saw the grace of God, was glad; and he made clear to them the need of keeping near the Lord with all the strength of their hearts:

bbe@Acts:11:24 @For he was a good man and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith: and a great number were joined to the Lord.

bbe@Acts:11:26 @And when he had come across him, he took him to Antioch. And they were with the church there for a year, teaching the people; and the disciples were first given the name of Christians in Antioch.

bbe@Acts:11:28 @And one of them, named Agabus, said publicly through the Spirit that there would be serious need of food all over the earth: which came about in the time of Claudius.

bbe@Acts:11:30 @Which they did, sending it to the rulers of the church by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.

bbe@Acts:12:2 @And he put James, the brother of John, to death with the sword.

bbe@Acts:12:3 @And when he saw that this was pleasing to the Jews he went on to take Peter in addition. This was at the time of the feast of unleavened bread.

bbe@Acts:12:4 @And having taken him, he put him in prison, with four bands of armed men to keep watch over him; his purpose being to take him out to the people after the Passover.

bbe@Acts:12:8 @Then the angel said, Put on your shoes and get ready to go. And he did so. And he said, Put your coat round you and come with me.

bbe@Acts:12:9 @And he went out after him; and he was not certain if what was done by the angel was a fact, for it seemed to him that he was seeing a vision.

bbe@Acts:12:10 @And when they had gone past the first and second watchmen they came to the iron door into the town, which came open by itself: and they went out and down one street; and then the angel went away.

bbe@Acts:12:13 @And he gave a blow on the door, and a young girl came to it, named Rhoda

bbe@Acts:12:14 @And hearing the voice of Peter, in her joy she went running, without opening the door, to say that Peter was outside.

bbe@Acts:12:15 @And they said to her, You are off your head. But still she said, with decision, that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.

bbe@Acts:12:16 @But Peter went on giving blows on the door: and when it was open and they saw him, they were full of wonder.

bbe@Acts:12:17 @But he made a sign to them with his hand to be quiet, and gave them an account of how the Lord had taken him out of prison. And he said, Give the news to James and the brothers. And then he went away.

bbe@Acts:12:18 @Now when it was day, the armed men were greatly troubled about what had become of Peter.

bbe@Acts:12:20 @Now he was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon: and they came to him, all together, and having made friends with Blastus, the controller of the king's house, they made a request for peace, because their country was dependent on the king's country for its food.

bbe@Acts:12:22 @And the people, with loud cries, said, It is the voice of a god, not of a man.

bbe@Acts:12:25 @And Barnabas and Saul came back from Jerusalem, when their work was ended, taking with them John named Mark.

bbe@Acts:13:2 @And while they were doing the Lord's work, and going without food, the Holy Spirit said, Let Barnabas and Saul be given to me for the special work for which they have been marked out by me.

bbe@Acts:13:3 @Then, after prayer and going without food they put their hands on them, and sent them away.

bbe@Acts:13:4 @So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia; and from there they went by ship to Cyprus.

bbe@Acts:13:5 @And at Salamis they were preaching the word of God in the Synagogues of the Jews: and John was with them, helping them.

bbe@Acts:13:7 @Who was with the ruler, Sergius Paulus, an able man. This man sent for Barnabas and Saul, desiring to have knowledge of the word of God.

bbe@Acts:13:8 @But Elymas, the wonder-worker (for that is the sense of his name), put himself against them, with the purpose of turning the ruler from the faith.

bbe@Acts:13:9 @But Saul, whose other name is Paul, being full of the Holy Spirit, looking hard at him, said,

bbe@Acts:13:12 @Then the ruler, when he saw what was done, had faith, being full of wonder at the teaching of the Lord.

bbe@Acts:13:13 @Then Paul and those who were with him went by ship from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia: and there John went away from them and came back to Jerusalem.

bbe@Acts:13:16 @And Paul, getting up and making a sign with his hand, said, Men of Israel, and you who have the fear of God, give ear.

bbe@Acts:13:17 @The God of this people Israel made selection of our fathers, lifting the people up from their low condition when they were living in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm took them out of it.

bbe@Acts:13:18 @And for about forty years he put up with their ways in the waste land.

bbe@Acts:13:19 @And having put to destruction seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them the land for their heritage for about four hundred and fifty years.

bbe@Acts:13:22 @And having put him on one side, he made David their king, to whom he gave witness, saying, I have taken David, the son of Jesse, a man dear to my heart, who will do all my pleasure.

bbe@Acts:13:24 @For whose coming John made ready the way by preaching to all the people of Israel the baptism which goes with a change of heart.

bbe@Acts:13:29 @And when they had done all the things said in the Writings about him, they took him down from the tree, and put him in the place of the dead.

bbe@Acts:13:31 @And for a number of days he was seen by those who came with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are now his witnesses before the people.

bbe@Acts:13:33 @Which God has now put into effect for our children, by sending Jesus; as it says in the second Psalm, You are my Son; this day I have given you being.

bbe@Acts:13:36 @Now David, having done God's work for his generation, went to sleep, and was put with his fathers, and his body came to destruction:

bbe@Acts:13:38 @And so, let it be clear to you, my brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is offered to you:

bbe@Acts:13:39 @And through him everyone who has faith is made free from all those things, from which the law of Moses was not able to make you free.

bbe@Acts:13:41 @See, you doubters, have wonder and come to your end; for I will do a thing in your days to which you will not give belief, even if it is made clear to you.

bbe@Acts:13:43 @Now when the meeting was ended, a number of the Jews and of the God-fearing Gentiles who had become Jews, went after Paul and Barnabas: who put before them how important it was to keep on in the grace of God.

bbe@Acts:13:46 @Then Paul and Barnabas without fear said, It was necessary for the word of God to be given to you first; but because you will have nothing to do with it, and have no desire for eternal life, it will now be offered to the Gentiles.

bbe@Acts:13:48 @And the Gentiles, hearing this, were glad and gave glory to the word of God: and those marked out by God for eternal life had faith.

bbe@Acts:13:50 @But the Jews, working up the feelings of the God-fearing women of high position and of the chief men of the town, got an attack started against Paul and Barnabas, driving them out of those parts.

bbe@Acts:13:52 @And the disciples were full of joy and of the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Acts:14:1 @Now in Iconium they went together to the Synagogue of the Jews and gave such teaching that a great number of Jews and Greeks had faith.

bbe@Acts:14:2 @But those Jews who had not the faith, made the minds of the Gentiles bitter against the brothers.

bbe@Acts:14:3 @So they kept there for a long time, taking heart in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace by causing signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

bbe@Acts:14:5 @And when a violent attempt was made by the Gentiles and the Jews, with their rulers, to make an attack on them and have them stoned,

bbe@Acts:14:6 @Having got news of it, they went in flight to the towns of Lycaonia, Lystra, and Derbe, and the country round about:

bbe@Acts:14:8 @And at Lystra there was a certain man, who from birth had been without the use of his feet, never having had the power of walking.

bbe@Acts:14:9 @This man was giving ear to the preaching of Paul, who, looking at him, and seeing that he had faith to be made well,

bbe@Acts:14:12 @And they gave the name of Jupiter to Barnabas, and to Paul that of Mercury, because he was the chief talker.

bbe@Acts:14:13 @And the priest of the image of Jupiter, which was before the town, took oxen and flowers to the doors of the town, and was about to make an offering with the people.

bbe@Acts:14:15 @Good people, why are you doing these things? We are men with the same feelings as you, and we give you the good news so that you may be turned away from these foolish things to the living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all things in them:

bbe@Acts:14:17 @But he was not without witness, because he did good, and gave you rain from heaven and times of fruit, making your hearts full of food and joy

bbe@Acts:14:18 @And even with these words, it was hard for them to keep the people from making an offering to them.

bbe@Acts:14:20 @But when the disciples came round him, he got up and went into the town: and the day after he went away with Barnabas to Derbe.

bbe@Acts:14:22 @Making strong the souls of the disciples, saying to them that they were to keep the faith, and that we have to go through troubles of all sorts to come into the kingdom of God.

bbe@Acts:14:23 @And when they had made selection of some to be rulers in every church, and had given themselves to prayer and kept themselves from food, they put them into the care of the Lord in whom they had faith.

bbe@Acts:14:27 @And when they came there, and had got the church together, they gave them an account of all the things which God had done through them, and how he had made open a door of faith to the Gentiles.

bbe@Acts:14:28 @And they were with the disciples there for a long time.

bbe@Acts:15:1 @Now certain men came down from Judaea, teaching the brothers and saying that without circumcision, after the rule of Moses, there is no salvation.

bbe@Acts:15:2 @And after Paul and Barnabas had had no little argument and discussion with them, the brothers made a decision to send Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them to the Apostles and the rulers of the church at Jerusalem about this question.

bbe@Acts:15:4 @And when they came to Jerusalem, they had a meeting with the church and the Apostles and the rulers, and they gave an account of all the things which God had done through them.

bbe@Acts:15:5 @But some of the Pharisees, who were of the faith, got up and said, It is necessary for these to have circumcision and to keep the law of Moses.

bbe@Acts:15:7 @And when there had been much discussion, Peter got up and said to them, My brothers, you have knowledge that some time back it was God's pleasure that by my mouth the good news might be given to the Gentiles so that they might have faith.

bbe@Acts:15:8 @And God, the searcher of hearts, was a witness to them, giving them the Holy Spirit even as he did to us;

bbe@Acts:15:9 @Making no division between them and us, but making clean their hearts by faith.

bbe@Acts:15:10 @Why then are you testing God, by putting on the neck of the disciples a yoke so hard that not even our fathers or we were strong enough for it?

bbe@Acts:15:11 @But we have faith that we will get salvation through the grace of the Lord Jesus in the same way as they.

bbe@Acts:15:15 @And this is in agreement with the words of the prophets, as it is said,

bbe@Acts:15:16 @After these things I will come back, and will put up the tent of David which has been broken down, building up again its broken parts and making it complete:

bbe@Acts:15:22 @Then it seemed good to the Apostles and the rulers and all the church, to send men from among them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; Judas, named Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brothers:

bbe@Acts:15:23 @And they sent a letter by them, saying, The Apostles and the older brothers, to the brothers who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, may joy be with you:

bbe@Acts:15:24 @Because we have knowledge that some who went from us have been troubling you with their words, putting your souls in doubt; to whom we gave no such order;

bbe@Acts:15:25 @It seemed good to us, having come to an agreement together, to send these men to you, with our well loved Barnabas and Paul,

bbe@Acts:15:28 @For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us, to put on you nothing more than these necessary things;

bbe@Acts:15:31 @And after reading it, they were glad of its comfort.

bbe@Acts:15:32 @And Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, gave teaching to the brothers and made them strong in the faith.

bbe@Acts:15:35 @But Paul and Barnabas kept on in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of God, with a number of others.

bbe@Acts:15:37 @And Barnabas had a desire to take with them John, named Mark.

bbe@Acts:15:38 @But Paul was of the opinion that it was not right to take with them one who had gone away from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone on with the work.

bbe@Acts:15:39 @And there was a sharp argument between them, so that they were parted from one another, and Barnabas took Mark with him and went by ship to Cyprus;

bbe@Acts:15:40 @But Paul took Silas and went away with the blessing of the brothers.

bbe@Acts:15:41 @And he went through Syria and Cilicia, making the churches stronger in the faith.

bbe@Acts:16:1 @And he came to Derbe and Lystra: and there was a certain disciple there named Timothy, whose mother was one of the Jews of the faith, but his father was a Greek;

bbe@Acts:16:3 @Paul had a desire for him to go with him, and he gave him circumcision because of the Jews who were in those parts: for they all had knowledge that his father was a Greek.

bbe@Acts:16:5 @So the churches were made strong in the faith and were increased in number every day.

bbe@Acts:16:6 @And after they had gone through the land of Phrygia and Galatia, the Holy Spirit did not let them take the word into Asia;

bbe@Acts:16:7 @And having come to Mysia, they made an attempt to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not let them;

bbe@Acts:16:10 @And when he had seen the vision, straight away we made the decision to go into Macedonia, for it seemed certain to us that God had sent us to give the good news to them.

bbe@Acts:16:13 @And on the Sabbath we went outside the town, by the river, where we had an idea that there would be a place of prayer; and, being seated, we had talk with the women who had come together.

bbe@Acts:16:15 @And when she and her family had had baptism, she made a request to us, saying, If it seems to you that I am true to the Lord, come into my house and be my guests. And she made us come.

bbe@Acts:16:16 @And when we were going to the place of prayer, we came across a girl with a spirit which gave knowledge of the future, whose masters made great profit from her power.

bbe@Acts:16:18 @And this she did on a number of days. But Paul was greatly troubled and, turning, said to the spirit, I give you orders in the name of Jesus Christ, to come out of her. And it came out that very hour.

bbe@Acts:16:19 @But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they took Paul and Silas, pulling them into the market-place before the rulers;

bbe@Acts:16:20 @And when they had taken them before the authorities, they said, These men, who are Jews, are greatly troubling our town;

bbe@Acts:16:21 @Teaching rules of living which it is not right for us to have or to keep, being Romans

bbe@Acts:16:22 @And the people made an attack on them all together: and the authorities took their clothing off them, and gave orders for them to be whipped.

bbe@Acts:16:24 @And he, having such orders, put them into the inner prison with chains on their feet.

bbe@Acts:16:29 @And he sent for lights and came rushing in and, shaking with fear, went down on his face before Paul and Silas,

bbe@Acts:16:31 @And they said, Have faith in the Lord Jesus, and you and your family will have salvation.

bbe@Acts:16:34 @And he took them into his house and gave them food, and he was full of joy, having faith in God with all his family.

bbe@Acts:16:35 @But when it was day, the authorities sent the police, saying, Let these men go.

bbe@Acts:16:36 @And the keeper said to Paul, The authorities have given orders to let you go: come out now, and go in peace.

bbe@Acts:16:37 @But Paul said to them, They have given us who are Romans a public whipping without judging us, and have put us in prison. Will they now send us out secretly? no, truly, let them come themselves and take us out.

bbe@Acts:16:38 @And the police gave an account of these words to the authorities, and they were full of fear on hearing that they were Romans;

bbe@Acts:17:2 @And Paul, as he generally did, went in to them, and on three Sabbath days had discussions with them from the holy Writings,

bbe@Acts:17:4 @And some of them had faith, and were joined to Paul and Silas; and a number of the God-fearing Greeks, and some of the chief women.

bbe@Acts:17:5 @But the Jews, being moved with envy, took with them certain low persons from among the common people, and getting together a great number of people, made an outcry in the town, attacking the house of Jason with the purpose of taking them out to the people.

bbe@Acts:17:11 @Now these were more noble than the Jews of Thessalonica, for they gave serious attention to the word, searching in the holy Writings every day, to see if these things were so.

bbe@Acts:17:12 @And a number of them had faith, and no small number of the Greek women of high position and of the men.

bbe@Acts:17:15 @But those who went with Paul took him as far as Athens, and then went away, with orders from him to Silas and Timothy to come to him quickly.

bbe@Acts:17:16 @Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was troubled, for he saw all the town full of images of the gods.

bbe@Acts:17:17 @So he had discussions in the Synagogue with the Jews and God-fearing Gentiles, and every day in the market-place with those who were there.

bbe@Acts:17:18 @And some of those who were supporters of the theories of the Epicureans and the Stoics, had a meeting with him. And some said, What is this talker of foolish words saying? And others, He seems to be a preacher of strange gods: because he was preaching of Jesus and his coming back from the dead.

bbe@Acts:17:23 @For when I came by, I was looking at the things to which you give worship, and I saw an altar with this writing on it, TO THE GOD OF WHOM THERE IS NO KNOWLEDGE

bbe@Acts:17:24 @The God who made the earth and everything in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, is not housed in buildings made with hands;

bbe@Acts:17:26 @And he has made of one blood all the nations of men living on all the face of the earth, ordering their times and the limits of their lands,

bbe@Acts:17:28 @For in him we have life and motion and existence; as certain of your verse writers have said, For we are his offspring.

bbe@Acts:17:29 @If then we are the offspring of God, it is not right for us to have the idea that God is like gold or silver or stone, formed by the art or design of man.

bbe@Acts:17:32 @Now on hearing about the coming back from death, some of them made sport of it, but others said, Let us go more fully into this another time.

bbe@Acts:17:34 @But some men gave him their support: among whom was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

bbe@Acts:18:2 @And there he came across a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by birth, who not long before had come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had given orders that all Jews were to go away from Rome: and he came to them;

bbe@Acts:18:3 @And because he was of the same trade, he was living with them, and they did their work together; for by trade they were tent-makers.

bbe@Acts:18:4 @And every Sabbath he had discussions in the Synagogue, turning Jews and Greeks to the faith.

bbe@Acts:18:7 @And moving from there, he went into the house of a man named Titus Justus, a God-fearing man, whose house was very near the Synagogue.

bbe@Acts:18:8 @And Crispus, the ruler of the Synagogue, with all his family, had faith in the Lord; and a great number of the people of Corinth, hearing the word, had faith and were given baptism.

bbe@Acts:18:10 @For I am with you, and no one will make an attack on you to do you damage: for I have a number of people in this town

bbe@Acts:18:14 @But when Paul was about to say something, Gallio said to the Jews, If this was anything to do with wrongdoing or crime, there would be a reason for me to give you a hearing:

bbe@Acts:18:15 @But if it is a question of words or names or of your law, see to it yourselves; I will not be a judge of such things.

bbe@Acts:18:18 @And Paul, after waiting some days, went away from the brothers and went by ship to Syria, Priscilla and Aquila being with him; and he had had his hair cut off in Cenchrea, for he had taken an oath.

bbe@Acts:18:19 @And they came down to Ephesus and he left them there: and he himself went into the Synagogue and had a discussion with the Jews.

bbe@Acts:18:23 @And having been there for some time, he went through the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, making the disciples strong in the faith.

bbe@Acts:18:24 @Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, and a man of learning, came to Ephesus; and he had great knowledge of the holy Writings.

bbe@Acts:18:25 @This man had been trained in the way of the Lord; and burning in spirit, he gave himself up to teaching the facts about Jesus, though he had knowledge only of John's baptism:

bbe@Acts:18:26 @And he was preaching in the Synagogue without fear. But Priscilla and Aquila, hearing his words, took him in, and gave him fuller teaching about the way of God.

bbe@Acts:18:27 @And when he had a desire to go over into Achaia, the brothers gave him help, and sent letters to the disciples requesting them to take him in among them: and when he had come, he gave much help to those who had faith through grace:

bbe@Acts:18:28 @For he overcame the Jews in public discussion, making clear from the holy Writings that the Christ was Jesus.

bbe@Acts:19:1 @And it came about that while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having gone through the higher country, came to Ephesus, where there were certain disciples:

bbe@Acts:19:2 @And he said to them, Did you get the Holy Spirit when you had faith? And they said to him, No, we have had no knowledge of the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Acts:19:4 @And Paul said, John gave a baptism which goes with a change of heart, saying to the people that they were to have faith in him who was coming after him, that is, in Jesus.

bbe@Acts:19:6 @And when Paul had put his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they had the power of talking in tongues, and acting like prophets.

bbe@Acts:19:8 @And he went into the Synagogue, and for three months he was preaching there without fear, reasoning and teaching about the kingdom of God.

bbe@Acts:19:12 @So that bits of linen and clothing from his body were taken to people who were ill, and their diseases went away from them and the evil spirits went out.

bbe@Acts:19:13 @But some of the Jews who went from place to place driving out evil spirits, took it on themselves to make use of the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, I give you orders, by Jesus, whom Paul is preaching.

bbe@Acts:19:15 @And the evil spirit, answering, said to them, I have knowledge of Jesus, and of Paul, but who are you?

bbe@Acts:19:16 @And the man in whom the evil spirit was, jumping on them, was stronger than the two of them, and overcame them, so that they went running from that house, wounded and without their clothing.

bbe@Acts:19:18 @And a number of those who had faith came and made a public statement of their sins and all their acts.

bbe@Acts:19:19 @And a great number of those who were experts in strange arts took their books and put them on the fire in front of everyone: and when the books were valued they came to fifty thousand bits of silver.

bbe@Acts:19:24 @For there was a certain man named Demetrius, a silver-worker, who made silver boxes for the images of Diana, and gave no small profit to the workmen;

bbe@Acts:19:25 @Whom he got together, with other workmen of the same trade, and said to them, Men, it is clear that from this business we get our wealth.

bbe@Acts:19:26 @And you see, for it has come to your ears, that not only at Ephesus, but almost all through Asia, this Paul has been teaching numbers of people and turning them away, saying that those are not gods who are made by men's hands:

bbe@Acts:19:27 @And there is danger, not only that our trade may be damaged in the opinion of men, but that the holy place of the great goddess Diana may be no longer honoured, and that she to whom all Asia and the world give worship, will be put down from her high position.

bbe@Acts:19:29 @And the town was full of noise and trouble, and they all came running into the theatre, having taken by force Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia who were journeying in company with Paul.

bbe@Acts:19:33 @Then they took Alexander out from among the people, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander, making a sign with his hand, was about to make a statement to the people in answer:

bbe@Acts:19:34 @But when they saw that he was a Jew, all of them with one voice went on crying out for about two hours, Great is Diana of Ephesus.

bbe@Acts:19:35 @And when the chief secretary had got the people quiet, he said, Men of Ephesus, is any man without knowledge that the town of Ephesus is the keeper of the holy place of the great Diana, who was sent down from Jupiter?

bbe@Acts:19:36 @So then, because these things may not be doubted, it would be better for you to be quiet, and do nothing unwise.

bbe@Acts:19:38 @If, then, Demetrius and the workmen who are with him have a protest to make against any man, the law is open to them, and there are judges; let them put up a cause at law against one another.

bbe@Acts:19:39 @But if any other business is in question, let it be taken up in the regular meeting.

bbe@Acts:19:40 @For, truly, we are in danger of being made responsible for this day's trouble, there being no cause for it: and we are not able to give any reason for this coming together.

bbe@Acts:20:4 @And Sopater of Beroea, the son of Pyrrhus, and Aristarchus and Secundus of Thessalonica, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia, went with him as far as Asia.

bbe@Acts:20:5 @But these had gone before, and were waiting for us at Troas.

bbe@Acts:20:7 @And on the first day of the week, when we had come together for the holy meal, Paul gave them a talk, for it was his purpose to go away on the day after; and he went on talking till after the middle of the night.

bbe@Acts:20:13 @But we, going before him by ship, went to Assos with the purpose of taking Paul in there: for so he had given orders, because he himself was coming by land.

bbe@Acts:20:14 @And when he came up with us at Assos, we took him in the ship and went on to Mitylene.

bbe@Acts:20:15 @And going from there by sea, we came on the day after opposite Chios, and touching at Samos on the day after that, we came on the third day to Miletus.

bbe@Acts:20:19 @Doing the Lord's work without pride, through all the sorrow and troubles which came on me because of the evil designs of the Jews:

bbe@Acts:20:20 @And how I kept back nothing which might be of profit to you, teaching you publicly and privately,

bbe@Acts:20:21 @Preaching to Jews and to Greeks the need for a turning of the heart to God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Acts:20:22 @And now, as you see, I am going to Jerusalem, a prisoner in spirit, having no knowledge of what will come to me there:

bbe@Acts:20:23 @Only that the Holy Spirit makes clear to me in every town that prison and pains are waiting for me.

bbe@Acts:20:24 @But I put no value on my life, if only at the end of it I may see the work complete which was given to me by the Lord Jesus, to be a witness of the good news of the grace of God.

bbe@Acts:20:28 @Give attention to yourselves, and to all the flock which the Holy Spirit has given into your care, to give food to the church of God, for which he gave his blood.

bbe@Acts:20:31 @So keep watch, having in mind that for three years without resting I was teaching every one of you, day and night, with weeping.

bbe@Acts:20:32 @And now, I give you into the care of God and the word of his grace, which is able to make you strong and to give you your heritage among all the saints.

bbe@Acts:20:34 @You yourselves have seen that with these hands I got what was necessary for me and those who were with me.

bbe@Acts:20:36 @And having said these words, he went down on his knees in prayer with them all.

bbe@Acts:20:38 @Being sad most of all because he had said that they would not see his face again. And so they went with him to the ship.

bbe@Acts:21:2 @And as there was a ship going to Phoenicia, we went in it.

bbe@Acts:21:3 @And when we had come in view of Cyprus, going past it on our left, we went on to Syria, and came to land at Tyre: for there the goods which were in the ship had to be taken out.

bbe@Acts:21:4 @And meeting the disciples we were there for seven days: and they gave Paul orders through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.

bbe@Acts:21:5 @And when these days came to an end, we went on our journey; and they all, with their wives and children, came with us on our way till we were out of the town: and after going on our knees in prayer by the sea,

bbe@Acts:21:7 @And journeying by ship from Tyre we came to Ptolemais; and there we had talk with the brothers and were with them for one day.

bbe@Acts:21:10 @And while we were waiting there for some days, a certain prophet, named Agabus, came down from Judaea.

bbe@Acts:21:11 @And he came to us, and took the band of Paul's clothing, and putting it round his feet and hands, said, The Holy Spirit says these words, So will the Jews do to the man who is the owner of this band, and they will give him up into the hands of the Gentiles.

bbe@Acts:21:16 @And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, taking a certain Mnason of Cyprus, one of the early disciples, in whose house we were to be living.

bbe@Acts:21:18 @And on the day after, Paul went with us to James, and all the rulers of the church were present.

bbe@Acts:21:20 @And hearing it, they gave praise to God; and they said to him, You see, brother, what thousands there are among the Jews, who have the faith; and they all have a great respect for the law:

bbe@Acts:21:22 @What then is the position? They will certainly get news that you have come.

bbe@Acts:21:24 @Go with these, and make yourself clean with them, and make the necessary payments for them, so that they may be free from their oath: and everyone will see that the statements made about you are not true, but that you put yourself under rule, and keep the law.

bbe@Acts:21:25 @But as to the Gentiles who have the faith, we sent a letter, giving our decision that they were to keep themselves from offerings made to false gods, and from blood, and from the flesh of animals put to death in ways against the law, and from the evil desires of the body.

bbe@Acts:21:26 @Then Paul took the men, and on the day after, making himself clean with them, he went into the Temple, giving out the statement that the days necessary for making them clean were complete, till the offering was made for every one of them.

bbe@Acts:21:28 @Crying out, Men of Israel, come to our help: this is the man who is teaching all men everywhere against the people and the law and this place: and in addition, he has taken Greeks into the Temple, and made this holy place unclean.

bbe@Acts:21:29 @For they had seen him before in the town with Trophimus of Ephesus, and had the idea that Paul had taken him with him into the Temple.

bbe@Acts:21:36 @For a great mass of people came after them, crying out, Away with him!

bbe@Acts:21:40 @And when he let him do so, Paul, from the steps, made a sign with his hand to the people, and when they were all quiet, he said to them in the Hebrew language,

bbe@Acts:22:3 @I am a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia by birth, but I had my education in this town at the feet of Gamaliel, being trained in the keeping of every detail of the law of our fathers; given up to the cause of God with all my heart, as you are today.

bbe@Acts:22:5 @Of which the high priest will be a witness, and all the rulers, from whom I had letters to the brothers; and I went into Damascus, to take those who were there as prisoners to Jerusalem for punishment.

bbe@Acts:22:6 @And it came about that while I was on my journey, coming near to Damascus, about the middle of the day, suddenly I saw a great light from heaven shining round me.

bbe@Acts:22:9 @And those who were with me saw the light, but the voice of him who was talking to me came not to their ears.

bbe@Acts:22:10 @And I said, What have I to do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Get up, and go into Damascus; and it will be made clear to you what you have to do.

bbe@Acts:22:11 @And because I was unable to see because of the glory of that light, those who were with me took me by the hand, and so I came to Damascus.

bbe@Acts:22:15 @For you will be a witness for him to all men of what you have seen and of what has come to your ears.

bbe@Acts:22:16 @And now, why are you waiting? get up, and have baptism, for the washing away of your sins, giving worship to his name

bbe@Acts:22:17 @And it came about that when I had come back to Jerusalem, while I was at prayer in the Temple, my senses became more than naturally clear,

bbe@Acts:22:18 @And I saw him saying to me, Go out of Jerusalem straight away because they will not give hearing to your witness about me.

bbe@Acts:22:19 @And I said, Lord, they themselves have knowledge that I went through the Synagogues putting in prison and whipping all those who had faith in you:

bbe@Acts:22:20 @And when Stephen your witness was put to death, I was there, giving approval, and looking after the clothing of those who put him to death.

bbe@Acts:22:22 @And they gave him a hearing as far as this word; then with loud voices they said, Away with this man from the earth; it is not right for him to be living.

bbe@Acts:22:25 @And when they had put leather bands round him, Paul said to the captain who was present, Is it the law for you to give blows to a man who is a Roman and has not been judged?

bbe@Acts:22:26 @And hearing this, the man went to the chief captain and gave him an account of it, saying, What are you about to do? for this man is a Roman.

bbe@Acts:23:3 @Then Paul said to him, God will give blows to you, you whitewashed wall: are you here to be my judge by law, and by your orders am I given blows against the law?

bbe@Acts:23:5 @And Paul said, Brother, I had no idea that he was the high priest: for it has been said, You may not say evil about the ruler of your people.

bbe@Acts:23:8 @For the Sadducees say that there is no coming back from the dead, and no angels or spirits: but the Pharisees have belief in all these.

bbe@Acts:23:9 @And there was a great outcry: and some of the scribes on the side of the Pharisees got up and took part in the discussion, saying, We see no evil in this man: what if he has had a revelation from an angel or a spirit?

bbe@Acts:23:11 @And the night after, the Lord came to his side and said, Be of good heart, for as you have been witnessing for me in Jerusalem, so will you be my witness in Rome.

bbe@Acts:23:12 @And when it was day, the Jews came together and put themselves under an oath that they would take no food or drink till they had put Paul to death.

bbe@Acts:23:15 @So now, will you and the Sanhedrin make a request to the military authorities to have him sent down to you, as if you were desiring to go into the business in greater detail; and we, before ever he gets to you, will be waiting to put him to death.

bbe@Acts:23:16 @But Paul's sister's son had word of their design, and he came into the army building and gave news of it to Paul.

bbe@Acts:23:19 @And the chief took him by the hand and, going on one side, said to him privately, What is it you have to say to me?

bbe@Acts:23:21 @But do not give way to them, for more than forty of them are waiting for him, having taken an oath not to take food or drink till they have put him to death: and now they are ready, waiting for your order.

bbe@Acts:23:23 @And he sent for two captains and said, Make ready two hundred men, with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen, to go to Caesarea, at the third hour of the night:

bbe@Acts:23:26 @Claudius Lysias, to the most noble ruler, Felix, peace be with you.

bbe@Acts:23:27 @This man was taken by the Jews, and was about to be put to death by them, when I came on them with the army and took him out of danger, having knowledge that he was a Roman.

bbe@Acts:23:29 @Then it became clear to me that it was a question of their law, and that nothing was said against him which might be a reason for prison or death.

bbe@Acts:23:32 @But on the day after, they sent the horsemen on with him, and went back to their place:

bbe@Acts:23:34 @And after reading it, he said, What part of the country do you come from? And, hearing that he was from Cilicia,

bbe@Acts:24:1 @And after five days, the high priest, Ananias, came with certain of the rulers, and an expert talker, one Tertullus; and they made a statement to Felix against Paul.

bbe@Acts:24:6 @Who, in addition, was attempting to make the Temple unclean: whom we took,

bbe@Acts:24:9 @And the Jews were in agreement with his statement, saying that these things were so.

bbe@Acts:24:11 @Seeing that you are able to make certain of the fact that it is not more than twelve days from the time when I came up to Jerusalem for worship;

bbe@Acts:24:12 @And they have not seen me in argument with any man in the Temple, or working up the feelings of the people, in the Synagogues or in the town:

bbe@Acts:24:18 @And having been made clean, I was in the Temple, but not with a great number of people, and not with noise: but there were certain Jews from Asia,

bbe@Acts:24:19 @And it would have been better if they had come here to make a statement, if they have anything against me.

bbe@Acts:24:24 @But after some days, Felix came with Drusilla his wife, who was of the Jews by birth, and sent for Paul, and gave hearing to him about faith in Christ Jesus.

bbe@Acts:24:26 @For he was hoping that Paul would give him money: so he sent for him more frequently and had talk with him.

bbe@Acts:25:3 @Requesting Festus to give effect to their design against him, and send him to Jerusalem, when they would be waiting to put him to death on the way.

bbe@Acts:25:5 @So, he said, let those who have authority among you go with me, and if there is any wrong in the man, let them make a statement against him.

bbe@Acts:25:6 @And when he had been with them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea; and on the day after, he took his place on the judge's seat, and sent for Paul.

bbe@Acts:25:9 @But Festus, desiring to get the approval of the Jews, said to Paul, Will you go up to Jerusalem, and be judged before me there in connection with these things?

bbe@Acts:25:10 @And Paul said, I am before the seat of Caesar's authority where it is right for me to be judged: I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you are well able to see.

bbe@Acts:25:11 @If, then, I am a wrongdoer and there is a cause of death in me, I am ready for death: if it is not as they say against me, no man may give me up to them. Let my cause come before Caesar.

bbe@Acts:25:12 @Then Festus, having had a discussion with the Jews, made answer, You have said, Let my cause come before Caesar; to Caesar you will go.

bbe@Acts:25:16 @To whom I gave answer that it is not the Roman way to give a man up, till he has been face to face with those who are attacking him, and has had a chance to give an answer to the statements made against him.

bbe@Acts:25:19 @But had certain questions against him in connection with their religion, and about one Jesus, now dead, who, Paul said, was living.

bbe@Acts:25:23 @So on the day after, when Agrippa and Bernice in great glory had come into the public place of hearing, with the chief of the army and the chief men of the town, at the order of Festus, Paul was sent for.

bbe@Acts:25:24 @And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all those who are present here with us, you see this man, about whom all the Jews have made protests to me, at Jerusalem and in this place, saying that it is not right for him to be living any longer.

bbe@Acts:25:26 @But I have no certain account of him to send to Caesar. So I have sent for him to come before you, and specially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the business has been gone into, I may have something to put in writing.

bbe@Acts:25:27 @For it seems to me against reason to send a prisoner without making clear what there is against him.

bbe@Acts:26:3 @The more so, because you are expert in all questions to do with the Jews and their ways: so I make my request to you to give me a hearing to the end.

bbe@Acts:26:4 @All the Jews have knowledge of my way of life from my early years, as it was from the start among my nation, and at Jerusalem;

bbe@Acts:26:5 @And they are able to say, if they would give witness, that I was living as a Pharisee, in that division of our religion which is most regular in the keeping of the law.

bbe@Acts:26:7 @For the effecting of which our twelve tribes have been working and waiting night and day with all their hearts. And in connection with this hope I am attacked by the Jews, O king!

bbe@Acts:26:8 @Why, in your opinion, is it outside belief for God to make the dead come to life again?

bbe@Acts:26:9 @For I, truly, was of the opinion that it was right for me to do a number of things against the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

bbe@Acts:26:10 @And this I did in Jerusalem: and numbers of the saints I put in prison, having had authority given to me from the chief priests, and when they were put to death, I gave my decision against them.

bbe@Acts:26:11 @And I gave them punishment frequently, in all the Synagogues, forcing them to say things against God; and burning with passion against them, I went after them even into far-away towns

bbe@Acts:26:12 @Then, when I was journeying to Damascus with the authority and orders of the chief priests,

bbe@Acts:26:13 @In the middle of the day, on the road I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining round me and those who were journeying with me.

bbe@Acts:26:14 @And when we had all gone down on the earth, a voice came to me, saying in the Hebrew language, Saul, Saul, why are you attacking me so cruelly? It is hard for you to go against the impulse which is driving you.

bbe@Acts:26:16 @But get up on your feet: for I have come to you for this purpose, to make you a servant and a witness of the things in which you have seen me, and of those in which you will see me;

bbe@Acts:26:18 @To make their eyes open, turning them from the dark to the light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may have forgiveness of sins and a heritage among those who are made holy by faith in me.

bbe@Acts:26:20 @But I went about, first to those in Damascus and Jerusalem, and through all the country of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, preaching a change of heart, so that they, being turned to God, might give, in their works, the fruits of a changed heart.

bbe@Acts:26:22 @And so, by God's help, I am here today, witnessing to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come about;

bbe@Acts:26:26 @For the king has knowledge of these things, to whom I am talking freely; being certain that all this is common knowledge to him; for it has not been done in secret.

bbe@Acts:26:27 @King Agrippa, have you faith in the prophets? I am certain that you have.

bbe@Acts:26:28 @And Agrippa said to Paul, A little more and you will be making me a Christian.

bbe@Acts:26:29 @And Paul said, It is my prayer to God that, in little or great measure, not only you, but all those hearing me today might be even as I am, but for these chains.

bbe@Acts:26:30 @And the king and the ruler and Bernice and those who were seated with them got up;

bbe@Acts:27:1 @And when the decision had been made that we were to go by sea to Italy, they gave Paul and certain other prisoners into the care of a captain named Julius, of the Augustan band.

bbe@Acts:27:2 @And we went to sea in a ship of Adramyttium which was sailing to the sea towns of Asia, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.

bbe@Acts:27:6 @And there the captain came across a ship of Alexandria, sailing for Italy, and put us in it.

bbe@Acts:27:8 @And sailing down the side of it, as well as we were able, we came to a certain place named Fair Havens, near which was the town of Lasea.

bbe@Acts:27:9 @And as a long time had gone by, and the journey was now full of danger, because it was late in the year, Paul put the position before them,

bbe@Acts:27:14 @But after a little time, a very violent wind, named Euraquilo, came down from it with great force.

bbe@Acts:27:15 @And when the ship got into the grip of it, and was not able to make headway into the wind, we gave way, and went before it.

bbe@Acts:27:16 @And, sailing near the side of a small island named Cauda, we were able, though it was hard work, to make the ship's boat safe:

bbe@Acts:27:17 @And having got it up, they put cords under and round the ship; but fearing that they might be pushed on to the Syrtis, they let down the sails and so went running before the wind.

bbe@Acts:27:18 @And, still fighting the storm with all our strength, the day after they made a start at getting the goods out of the ship;

bbe@Acts:27:21 @And when they had been without food for a long time, Paul got up among them and said, Friends, it would have been better if you had given attention to me and not gone sailing out from Crete, to undergo this damage and loss.

bbe@Acts:27:24 @Saying, Have no fear, Paul, for you will come before Caesar, and God has given to you all those who are sailing with you.

bbe@Acts:27:25 @And so, O men, be of good heart, for I have faith in God that it will be as he said to me.

bbe@Acts:27:28 @And they let down the lead, and saw that the sea was a hundred and twenty feet deep; and after a little time they did it again and it was ninety feet.

bbe@Acts:27:33 @And when dawn was near, Paul gave them all orders to take food, saying, This is the fourteenth day you have been waiting and taking no food.

bbe@Acts:27:39 @And when it was day, they had no knowledge of the land, but they saw an inlet of the sea with a floor of sand, and they had the idea of driving the ship up on to it if possible.

bbe@Acts:27:44 @And the rest, some on boards and some on things from the ship. And so it came about that they all got safe to land.

bbe@Acts:28:1 @And when we were safe, we made the discovery that the island was named Melita.

bbe@Acts:28:2 @And the simple people living there were uncommonly kind to us, for they made a fire for us, and took us in, because it was raining and cold.

bbe@Acts:28:3 @But when Paul had got some sticks together and put them on the fire, a snake came out, because of the heat, and gave him a bite on the hand.

bbe@Acts:28:4 @And when the people saw it hanging on his hand, they said to one another, Without doubt this man has put someone to death, and though he has got safely away from the sea, God will not let him go on living.

bbe@Acts:28:6 @But they had the idea that they would see him becoming ill, or suddenly falling down dead; but after waiting a long time, and seeing that no damage came to him, changing their opinion, they said he was a god.

bbe@Acts:28:8 @And the father of Publius was ill, with a disease of the stomach; to whom Paul went, and put his hands on him, with prayer, and made him well.

bbe@Acts:28:12 @And going into the harbour at Syracuse, we were waiting there for three days.

bbe@Acts:28:14 @Where we came across some of the brothers, who kept us with them for seven days; and so we came to Rome.

bbe@Acts:28:15 @And the brothers, when they had news of us, came out from town as far as Appii Forum and the Three Taverns to have a meeting with us: and Paul, seeing them, gave praise to God and took heart

bbe@Acts:28:19 @But when the Jews made protest against it, I had to put my cause into Caesar's hands; not because I have anything to say against my nation.

bbe@Acts:28:20 @But for this reason I sent for you, to see and have talk with you: for because of the hope of Israel I am in these chains.

bbe@Acts:28:22 @But we have a desire to give hearing to your opinion: for as to this form of religion, we have knowledge that in all places it is attacked.

bbe@Acts:28:23 @And when a day had been fixed, they came to his house in great numbers; and he gave them teaching, giving witness to the kingdom of God, and having discussions with them about Jesus, from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning till evening.

bbe@Acts:28:24 @And some were in agreement with what he said, but some had doubts.

bbe@Acts:28:25 @And they went away, for there was a division among them after Paul had said this one thing: Well did the Holy Spirit say by the prophet Isaiah to your fathers,

bbe@Acts:28:27 @For the heart of this people has become fat and their ears are slow in hearing and their eyes are shut; for fear that they might see with their eyes and give hearing with their ears and become wise in their hearts and be turned again to me, so that I might make them well.

bbe@Acts:28:30 @And for the space of two years, Paul was living in the house of which he had the use, and had talk with all those who went in to see him,

bbe@Acts:28:31 @Preaching the kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ without fear, and no orders were given that he was not to do so.

bbe@Romans:1:1 @Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, an Apostle by the selection of God, given authority as a preacher of the good news,

bbe@Romans:1:2 @Of which God had given word before by his prophets in the holy Writings,

bbe@Romans:1:4 @But was marked out as Son of God in power by the Holy Spirit through the coming to life again of the dead; Jesus Christ our Lord,

bbe@Romans:1:5 @Through whom grace has been given to us, sending us out to make disciples to the faith among all nations, for his name:

bbe@Romans:1:8 @First of all, I give praise to my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because news of your faith has gone into all the world.

bbe@Romans:1:9 @For God is my witness, whose servant I am in spirit in the good news of his Son, that you are at all times in my memory and in my prayers,

bbe@Romans:1:11 @For I have a strong desire to see you, and to give you some grace of the spirit, so that you may be made strong;

bbe@Romans:1:12 @That is to say, that all of us may be comforted together by the faith which is in you and in me.

bbe@Romans:1:13 @You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you (but till now I was kept from it), so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.

bbe@Romans:1:16 @For I have no feeling of shame about the good news, because it is the power of God giving salvation to everyone who has faith, to the Jew first, and then to the Greek.

bbe@Romans:1:17 @For in it there is the revelation of the righteousness of God from faith to faith: as it is said in the holy Writings, The man who does righteousness will be living by his faith.

bbe@Romans:1:19 @Because the knowledge of God may be seen in them, God having made it clear to them.

bbe@Romans:1:21 @Because, having the knowledge of God, they did not give glory to God as God, and did not give praise, but their minds were full of foolish things, and their hearts, being without sense, were made dark.

bbe@Romans:1:24 @For this reason God gave them up to the evil desires of their hearts, working shame in their bodies with one another:

bbe@Romans:1:25 @Because by them the true word of God was changed into that which is false, and they gave worship and honour to the thing which is made, and not to him who made it, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it.

bbe@Romans:1:27 @And in the same way the men gave up the natural use of the woman and were burning in their desire for one another, men doing shame with men, and getting in their bodies the right reward of their evil-doing.

bbe@Romans:1:29 @Being full of all wrongdoing, evil, desire for the goods of others, hate, envy, putting to death, fighting, deceit, cruel ways, evil talk, and false statements about others;

bbe@Romans:1:30 @Hated by God, full of pride, without respect, full of loud talk, given to evil inventions, not honouring father or mother,

bbe@Romans:1:31 @Without knowledge, not true to their undertakings, unkind, having no mercy:

bbe@Romans:2:4 @Or is it nothing to you that God had pity on you, waiting and putting up with you for so long, not seeing that in his pity God's desire is to give you a change of heart?

bbe@Romans:2:7 @To those who go on with good works in the hope of glory and honour and salvation from death, he will give eternal life:

bbe@Romans:2:8 @But to those who, from a love of competition, are not guided by what is true, will come the heat of his wrath,

bbe@Romans:2:12 @All those who have done wrong without the law will get destruction without the law: and those who have done wrong under the law will have their punishment by the law;

bbe@Romans:2:13 @For it is not the hearers of the law who will be judged as having righteousness before God, but only the doers:

bbe@Romans:2:14 @For when the Gentiles without the law have a natural desire to do the things in the law, they are a law to themselves;

bbe@Romans:2:15 @Because the work of the law is seen in their hearts, their sense of right and wrong giving witness to it, while their minds are at one time judging them and at another giving them approval;

bbe@Romans:2:16 @In the day when God will be a judge of the secrets of men, as it says in the good news of which I am a preacher, through Jesus Christ.

bbe@Romans:2:21 @You who give teaching to others, do you give it to yourself? you who say that a man may not take what is not his, do you take what is not yours?

bbe@Romans:2:24 @For the name of God is shamed among the Gentiles because of you, as it is said in the holy Writings.

bbe@Romans:2:25 @It is true that circumcision is of use if you keep the law, but if you go against the law it is as if you had it not.

bbe@Romans:2:26 @If those who have not circumcision keep the rules of the law, will it not be credited to them as circumcision?

bbe@Romans:2:27 @And they, by their keeping of the law without circumcision, will be judges of you, by whom the law is broken though you have the letter of the law and circumcision.

bbe@Romans:2:29 @But he is a Jew who is a secret one, whose circumcision is of the heart, in the spirit and not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.

bbe@Romans:3:1 @How then is the Jew better off? or what profit is there in circumcision?

bbe@Romans:3:3 @And if some have no faith, will that make the faith of God without effect?

bbe@Romans:3:4 @In no way: but let God be true, though every man is seen to be untrue; as it is said in the Writings, That your words may be seen to be true, and you may be seen to be right when you are judged.

bbe@Romans:3:5 @But if the righteousness of God is supported by our wrongdoing what is to be said? is it wrong for God to be angry (as men may say)?

bbe@Romans:3:6 @In no way: because if it is so, how is God able to be the judge of all the world?

bbe@Romans:3:8 @Let us not do evil so that good may come (a statement which we are falsely said by some to have made), because such behaviour will have its right punishment.

bbe@Romans:3:9 @What then? are we worse off than they? In no way: because we have before made it clear that Jews as well as Greeks are all under the power of sin;

bbe@Romans:3:10 @As it is said in the holy Writings, There is not one who does righteousness;

bbe@Romans:3:12 @They have all gone out of the way, there is no profit in any of them; there is not one who does good, not so much as one:

bbe@Romans:3:13 @Their throat is like an open place of death; with their tongues they have said what is not true: the poison of snakes is under their lips:

bbe@Romans:3:14 @Whose mouth is full of curses and bitter words:

bbe@Romans:3:21 @But now without the law there is a revelation of the righteousness of God, to which witness is given by the law and the prophets;

bbe@Romans:3:22 @That is, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ, to all those who have faith; and one man is not different from another,

bbe@Romans:3:24 @And they may have righteousness put to their credit, freely, by his grace, through the salvation which is in Christ Jesus:

bbe@Romans:3:25 @Whom God has put forward as the sign of his mercy, through faith, by his blood, to make clear his righteousness when, in his pity, God let the sins of earlier times go without punishment;

bbe@Romans:3:26 @And to make clear his righteousness now, so that he might himself be upright, and give righteousness to him who has faith in Jesus.

bbe@Romans:3:27 @What reason, then, is there for pride? It is shut out. By what sort of law? of works? No, but by a law of faith.

bbe@Romans:3:28 @For this reason, then, a man may get righteousness by faith without the works of the law.

bbe@Romans:3:30 @If God is one; and he will give righteousness because of faith to those who have circumcision, and through faith to those who have not circumcision.

bbe@Romans:3:31 @Do we, then, through faith make the law of no effect? in no way: but we make it clear that the law is important.

bbe@Romans:4:3 @But what does it say in the holy Writings? And Abraham had faith in God, and it was put to his account as righteousness.

bbe@Romans:4:4 @Now, the reward is credited to him who does works, not as of grace but as a debt.

bbe@Romans:4:5 @But to him who without working has faith in him who gives righteousness to the evil-doer, his faith is put to his account as righteousness.

bbe@Romans:4:6 @As David says that there is a blessing on the man to whose account God puts righteousness without works, saying,

bbe@Romans:4:9 @Is this blessing, then, for the circumcision only, or in the same way for those who have not circumcision? for we say that the faith of Abraham was put to his account as righteousness.

bbe@Romans:4:10 @How, then, was it judged? when he had circumcision, or when he had it not? Not when he had it, but when he did not have it:

bbe@Romans:4:11 @And he was given the sign of circumcision as a witness of the faith which he had before he underwent circumcision: so that he might be the father of all those who have faith, though they have not circumcision, and so that righteousness might be put to their account;

bbe@Romans:4:12 @And the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who keep to the way of that faith which our father Abraham had before he underwent circumcision.

bbe@Romans:4:13 @For God's word, that the earth would be his heritage, was given to Abraham, not through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.

bbe@Romans:4:14 @For if they who are of the law are the people who get the heritage, then faith is made of no use, and the word of God has no power;

bbe@Romans:4:15 @For the outcome of the law is wrath; but where there is no law it will not be broken.

bbe@Romans:4:16 @For this reason it is of faith, so that it may be through grace; and so that the word of God may be certain to all the seed; not only to that which is of the law, but to that which is of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all,

bbe@Romans:4:17 @(As it is said in the holy Writings, I have made you a father of a number of nations) before him in whom he had faith, that is, God, who gives life to the dead, and to whom the things which are not are as if they were.

bbe@Romans:4:18 @Who without reason for hope, in faith went on hoping, so that he became the father of a number of nations, as it had been said, So will your seed be.

bbe@Romans:4:19 @And not being feeble in faith though his body seemed to him little better than dead (he being about a hundred years old) and Sarah was no longer able to have children:

bbe@Romans:4:20 @Still, he did not give up faith in the undertaking of God, but was made strong by faith, giving glory to God,

bbe@Romans:4:22 @For which reason it was put to his account as righteousness.

bbe@Romans:4:23 @Now, it was not because of him only that this was said,

bbe@Romans:4:24 @But for us in addition, to whose account it will be put, if we have faith in him who made Jesus our Lord come back again from the dead,

bbe@Romans:5:1 @For which reason, because we have righteousness through faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;

bbe@Romans:5:2 @Through whom, in the same way, we have been able by faith to come to this grace in which we now are; and let us have joy in hope of the glory of God.

bbe@Romans:5:3 @And not only so, but let us have joy in our troubles: in the knowledge that trouble gives us the power of waiting;

bbe@Romans:5:4 @And waiting gives experience; and experience, hope:

bbe@Romans:5:5 @And hope does not put to shame; because our hearts are full of the love of God through the Holy Spirit which is given to us.

bbe@Romans:5:6 @For when we were still without strength, at the right time Christ gave his life for evil-doers.

bbe@Romans:5:7 @Now it is hard for anyone to give his life even for an upright man, though it might be that for a good man someone would give his life.

bbe@Romans:5:10 @For if, when we were haters of God, the death of his Son made us at peace with him, much more, now that we are his friends, will we have salvation through his life;

bbe@Romans:5:11 @And not only so, but we have joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we are now at peace with God.

bbe@Romans:5:20 @And the law came in addition, to make wrongdoing worse; but where there was much sin, there was much more grace:

bbe@Romans:6:2 @In no way. How may we, who are dead to sin, be living in it any longer?

bbe@Romans:6:3 @Or are you without the knowledge that all we who had baptism into Christ Jesus, had baptism into his death?

bbe@Romans:6:4 @We have been placed with him among the dead through baptism into death: so that as Christ came again from the dead by the glory of the Father, we, in the same way, might be living in new life.

bbe@Romans:6:6 @Being conscious that our old man was put to death on the cross with him, so that the body of sin might be put away, and we might no longer be servants to sin.

bbe@Romans:6:8 @But if we are dead with Christ, we have faith that we will be living with him;

bbe@Romans:6:12 @For this cause do not let sin be ruling in your body which is under the power of death, so that you give way to its desires;

bbe@Romans:6:15 @What then? are we to go on in sin because we are not under law but under grace? Let it not be so.

bbe@Romans:6:21 @What fruit had you at that time in the things which are now a shame to you? for the end of such things is death.

bbe@Romans:6:22 @But now, being free from sin, and having been made servants to God, you have your fruit in that which is holy, and the end is eternal life.

bbe@Romans:7:1 @Is it not clear, my brothers (I am using an argument to those who have knowledge of the law), that the law has power over a man as long as he is living?

bbe@Romans:7:4 @In the same way, my brothers, you were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, so that you might be joined to another, even to him who came again from the dead, so that we might give fruit to God.

bbe@Romans:7:5 @For when we were in the flesh, the evil passions which came into being through the law were working in our bodies to give the fruit of death.

bbe@Romans:7:6 @But now we are free from the law, having been made dead to that which had power over us; so that we are servants in the new way of the spirit, not in the old way of the letter.

bbe@Romans:7:8 @But sin, taking its chance through that which was ordered by the law, was working in me every form of desire: because without the law sin is dead.

bbe@Romans:7:9 @And there was a time when I was living without the law: but when the law gave its orders, sin came to life and put me to death;

bbe@Romans:7:11 @For I was tricked and put to death by sin, which took its chance through the law.

bbe@Romans:7:12 @But the law is holy, and its orders are holy, upright, and good.

bbe@Romans:7:14 @For we are conscious that the law is of the spirit; but I am of the flesh, given into the power of sin.

bbe@Romans:7:16 @But, if I do that which I have no mind to do, I am in agreement with the law that the law is good

bbe@Romans:7:17 @So it is no longer I who do it, but the sin living in me.

bbe@Romans:7:20 @But if I do what I have no mind to do, it is no longer I who do it, but the sin living in me.

bbe@Romans:7:25 @I give praise to God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So with my mind I am a servant to the law of God, but with my flesh to the law of sin.

bbe@Romans:8:2 @For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

bbe@Romans:8:3 @For what the law was not able to do because it was feeble through the flesh, God, sending his Son in the image of the evil flesh, and as an offering for sin, gave his decision against sin in the flesh:

bbe@Romans:8:4 @So that what was ordered by the law might be done in us, who are living, not in the way of the flesh, but in the way of the Spirit.

bbe@Romans:8:5 @For those who are living in the way of the flesh give their minds to the things of the flesh, but those who go in the way of the Spirit, to the things of the Spirit.

bbe@Romans:8:6 @For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace:

bbe@Romans:8:7 @Because the mind of the flesh is opposite to God; it is not under the law of God, and is not able to be:

bbe@Romans:8:9 @You are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if the Spirit of God is in you. But if any man has not the Spirit of Christ he is not one of his.

bbe@Romans:8:10 @And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.

bbe@Romans:8:11 @But if the Spirit of him who made Jesus come again from the dead is in you, he who made Christ Jesus come again from the dead will in the same way, through his Spirit which is in you, give life to your bodies which now are under the power of death.

bbe@Romans:8:13 @For if you go in the way of the flesh, death will come on you; but if by the Spirit you put to death the works of the body, you will have life.

bbe@Romans:8:14 @And all those who are guided by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

bbe@Romans:8:15 @For you did not get the spirit of servants again to put you in fear, but the spirit of sons was given to you, by which we say, Abba, Father.

bbe@Romans:8:16 @The Spirit is witness with our spirit that we are children of God:

bbe@Romans:8:17 @And if we are children, we have a right to a part in the heritage; a part in the things of God, together with Christ; so that if we have a part in his pain, we will in the same way have a part in his glory.

bbe@Romans:8:19 @For the strong desire of every living thing is waiting for the revelation of the sons of God.

bbe@Romans:8:20 @For every living thing was put under the power of change, not by its desire, but by him who made it so, in hope

bbe@Romans:8:21 @That all living things will be made free from the power of death and will have a part with the free children of God in glory.

bbe@Romans:8:23 @And not only so, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we have sorrow in our minds, waiting for the time when we will take our place as sons, that is, the salvation of our bodies.

bbe@Romans:8:25 @But if we have hope for that which we see not, then we will be able to go on waiting for it.

bbe@Romans:8:26 @And in the same way the Spirit is a help to our feeble hearts: for we are not able to make prayer to God in the right way; but the Spirit puts our desires into words which are not in our power to say;

bbe@Romans:8:27 @And he who is the searcher of hearts has knowledge of the mind of the Spirit, because he is making prayers for the saints in agreement with the mind of God.

bbe@Romans:8:32 @He who did not keep back his only Son, but gave him up for us all, will he not with him freely give us all things?

bbe@Romans:8:33 @Who will say anything against the saints of God? It is God who makes us clear from evil;

bbe@Romans:8:34 @Who will give a decision against us? It is Christ Jesus who not only was put to death, but came again from the dead, who is now at the right hand of God, taking our part.

bbe@Romans:8:36 @As it is said in the holy Writings, Because of you we are put to death every day; we are like sheep ready for destruction.

bbe@Romans:9:1 @I say what is true in Christ, and not what is false, my mind giving witness with me in the Holy Spirit,

bbe@Romans:9:2 @That I am full of sorrow and pain without end.

bbe@Romans:9:4 @Who are Israelites: who have the place of sons, and the glory, and the agreements with God, and the giving of the law, and the worship, and the hope offered by God:

bbe@Romans:9:5 @Whose are the fathers, and of whom came Christ in the flesh, who is over all, God, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it.

bbe@Romans:9:6 @But it is not as if the word of God was without effect. For they are not all Israel, who are of Israel:

bbe@Romans:9:8 @That is, it is not the children of the flesh, but the children of God's undertaking, who are named as the seed.

bbe@Romans:9:11 @Before the children had come into existence, or had done anything good or bad, in order that God's purpose and his selection might be effected, not by works, but by him whose purpose it is,

bbe@Romans:9:12 @It was said to her, The older will be the servant of the younger.

bbe@Romans:9:13 @Even as it is said, I had love for Jacob, but for Esau I had hate.

bbe@Romans:9:14 @What may we say then? is God not upright? let it not be said.

bbe@Romans:9:15 @For he says to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and pity on whom I will have pity.

bbe@Romans:9:16 @So then, it is not by the desire or by the attempt of man, but by the mercy of God.

bbe@Romans:9:17 @For the holy Writings say to Pharaoh, For this same purpose did I put you on high, so that I might make my power seen in you, and that there might be knowledge of my name through all the earth.

bbe@Romans:9:20 @But, O man, who are you, to make answer against God? May the thing which is made say to him who made it, Why did you make me so?

bbe@Romans:9:22 @What if God, desiring to let his wrath and his power be seen, for a long time put up with the vessels of wrath which were ready for destruction:

bbe@Romans:9:26 @And in the place where it was said to them, You are not my people, there they will be named the sons of the living God.

bbe@Romans:9:28 @For the Lord will give effect to his word on the earth, putting an end to it and cutting it short.

bbe@Romans:9:30 @What then may we say? That the nations who did not go after righteousness have got righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith:

bbe@Romans:9:31 @But Israel, going after a law of righteousness, did not get it.

bbe@Romans:9:32 @Why? Because they were not searching for it by faith, but by works. They came up against the stone which was in the way;

bbe@Romans:9:33 @As it is said, See, I am putting in Zion a stone causing a fall, and a rock in the way: but he who has faith in him will not be put to shame.

bbe@Romans:10:2 @For I give witness of them that they have a strong desire for God, but not with knowledge.

bbe@Romans:10:4 @For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who has faith.

bbe@Romans:10:5 @For Moses says that the man who does the righteousness which is of the law will get life by it.

bbe@Romans:10:6 @But the righteousness which is of faith says these words, Say not in your heart, Who will go up to heaven? (that is, to make Christ come down:)

bbe@Romans:10:8 @But what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart: that is, the word of faith of which we are the preachers:

bbe@Romans:10:9 @Because, if you say with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and have faith in your heart that God has made him come back from the dead, you will have salvation:

bbe@Romans:10:10 @For with the heart man has faith to get righteousness, and with the mouth he says that Jesus is Lord to get salvation.

bbe@Romans:10:11 @Because it is said in the holy Writings, Whoever has faith in him will not be shamed.

bbe@Romans:10:14 @But how will they give worship to him in whom they have no faith? and how will they have faith in him of whom they have not had news? and how will they have news without a preacher?

bbe@Romans:10:15 @And how will there be preachers if they are not sent? As it is said, How beautiful are the feet of those who give the glad news of good things.

bbe@Romans:10:16 @But they have not all given ear to the good news. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has had faith in our word?

bbe@Romans:10:17 @So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ.

bbe@Romans:10:20 @And Isaiah says without fear, Those who were not searching for me made discovery of me; and I was seen by those whose hearts were turned away from me.

bbe@Romans:11:2 @God has not put away the people of his selection. Or have you no knowledge of what is said about Elijah in the holy Writings? how he says words to God against Israel,

bbe@Romans:11:6 @But if it is of grace, then it is no longer of works: or grace would not be grace.

bbe@Romans:11:7 @What then? That which Israel was searching for he did not get, but those of the selection got it and the rest were made hard.

bbe@Romans:11:8 @As it was said in the holy Writings, God gave them a spirit of sleep, eyes which might not see, and ears which have no hearing, to this day.

bbe@Romans:11:13 @But I say to you, Gentiles, in so far as I am the Apostle of the Gentiles, I make much of my position:

bbe@Romans:11:15 @For, if by their putting away, the rest of men have been made friends with God, what will their coming back again be, but life from the dead?

bbe@Romans:11:16 @And if the first-fruit is holy, so is the mass: and if the root is holy, so are the branches.

bbe@Romans:11:17 @But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, an olive-tree of the fields, were put in among them, and were given a part with them in the root by which the olive-tree is made fertile,

bbe@Romans:11:18 @Do not be uplifted in pride over the branches: because it is not you who are the support of the root, but it is by the root that you are supported.

bbe@Romans:11:20 @Truly, because they had no faith they were broken off, and you have your place by reason of your faith. Do not be lifted up in pride, but have fear;

bbe@Romans:11:22 @See then that God is good but his rules are fixed: to those who were put away he was hard, but to you he has been good, on the condition that you keep in his mercy; if not, you will be cut off as they were.

bbe@Romans:11:23 @And they, if they do not go on without faith, will be united to the tree again, because God is able to put them in again.

bbe@Romans:11:24 @For if you were cut out of a field olive-tree, and against the natural use were united to a good olive-tree, how much more will these, the natural branches, be united again with the olive-tree which was theirs?

bbe@Romans:11:25 @For it is my desire, brothers, that this secret may be clear to you, so that you may not have pride in your knowledge, that Israel has been made hard in part, till all the Gentiles have come in;

bbe@Romans:11:26 @And so all Israel will get salvation: as it is said in the holy Writings, There will come out of Zion the One who makes free; by him wrongdoing will be taken away from Jacob:

bbe@Romans:11:27 @And this is my agreement with them, when I will take away their sins.

bbe@Romans:11:35 @Or who has first given to him, and it will be given back to him again?

bbe@Romans:11:36 @For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever. So be it.

bbe@Romans:12:1 @For this reason I make request to you, brothers, by the mercies of God, that you will give your bodies as a living offering, holy, pleasing to God, which is the worship it is right for you to give him.

bbe@Romans:12:3 @But I say to every one of you, through the grace given to me, not to have an over-high opinion of himself, but to have wise thoughts, as God has given to every one a measure of faith.

bbe@Romans:12:6 @And having different qualities by reason of the grace given to us, such as the quality of a prophet, let it be made use of in relation to the measure of our faith;

bbe@Romans:12:7 @Or the position of a Deacon of the church, let a man give himself to it; or he who has the power of teaching, let him make use of it;

bbe@Romans:12:8 @He who has the power of comforting, let him do so; he who gives, let him give freely; he who has the power of ruling, let him do it with a serious mind; he who has mercy on others, let it be with joy.

bbe@Romans:12:9 @Let love be without deceit. Be haters of what is evil; keep your minds fixed on what is good.

bbe@Romans:12:10 @Be kind to one another with a brother's love, putting others before yourselves in honour;

bbe@Romans:12:11 @Be not slow in your work, but be quick in spirit, as the Lord's servants;

bbe@Romans:12:16 @Be in harmony with one another. Do not have a high opinion of yourselves, but be in agreement with common people. Do not give yourselves an air of wisdom.

bbe@Romans:12:18 @As far as it is possible for you be at peace with all men.

bbe@Romans:12:19 @Do not give punishment for wrongs done to you, dear brothers, but give way to the wrath of God; for it is said in the holy Writings, Punishment is mine, I will give reward, says the Lord.

bbe@Romans:12:20 @But if one who has hate for you is in need of food or of drink, give it to him, for in so doing you will put coals of fire on his head.

bbe@Romans:13:1 @Let everyone put himself under the authority of the higher powers, because there is no power which is not of God, and all powers are ordered by God.

bbe@Romans:13:2 @For which reason everyone who puts himself against the authority puts himself against the order of God: and those who are against it will get punishment for themselves.

bbe@Romans:13:3 @For rulers are not a cause of fear to the good work but to the evil. If you would have no fear of the authority, do good and you will have praise;

bbe@Romans:13:5 @So put yourselves under the authority, not for fear of wrath, but because you have the knowledge of what is right.

bbe@Romans:13:6 @For the same reason, make payment of taxes; because the authority is God's servant, to take care of such things at all times.

bbe@Romans:13:7 @Give to all what is their right: taxes to him whose they are, payment to him whose right it is, fear to whom fear, honour to whom honour is to be given.

bbe@Romans:13:9 @And this, Do not be untrue in married life, Do not put to death, Do not take what is another's, Do not have desire for what is another's, and if there is any other order, it is covered by this word, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

bbe@Romans:13:11 @See then that the time has come for you to be awake from sleep: for now is your salvation nearer than when you first had faith.

bbe@Romans:13:12 @The night is far gone, and the day is near: so let us put off the works of the dark, arming ourselves with light,

bbe@Romans:13:13 @With right behaviour as in the day; not in pleasure-making and drinking, not in bad company and unclean behaviour, not in fighting and envy.

bbe@Romans:13:14 @But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not give thought to the flesh to do its desires.

bbe@Romans:14:1 @Do not put on one side him who is feeble in faith, and do not put him in doubt by your reasonings.

bbe@Romans:14:2 @One man has faith to take all things as food: another who is feeble in faith takes only green food.

bbe@Romans:14:4 @Who are you to make yourself a judge of another man's servant? it is to his master that he is responsible for good or bad. Yes, his place will be safe, because the Lord is able to keep him from falling.

bbe@Romans:14:6 @He who keeps the day, keeps it to the Lord; and he who takes food, takes it as to the Lord, for he gives praise to God; and he who does not take food, to the Lord he takes it not, and gives praise to God.

bbe@Romans:14:8 @As long as we have life we are living to the Lord; or if we give up our life it is to the Lord; so if we are living, or if our life comes to an end, we are the Lord's.

bbe@Romans:14:11 @For it is said in the holy Writings, By my life, says the Lord, to me every knee will be bent, and every tongue will give worship to God.

bbe@Romans:14:13 @Then let us not be judges of one another any longer: but keep this in mind, that no man is to make it hard for his brother, or give him cause for doubting.

bbe@Romans:14:14 @I am conscious of this, and am certain in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself; but for the man in whose opinion it is unclean, for him it is unclean.

bbe@Romans:14:16 @Let it not be possible for men to say evil about your good:

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

bbe@Romans:14:20 @Do not let the work of God come to nothing on account of food. All things are certainly clean; but it is evil for that man who by taking food makes it hard for another.

bbe@Romans:14:21 @It is better not to take meat or wine or to do anything which might be a cause of trouble to your brother.

bbe@Romans:14:22 @The faith which you have, have it to yourself before God. Happy is the man who is not judged by that to which he gives approval.

bbe@Romans:14:23 @But he who is in doubt is judged if he takes food, because he does it not in faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.

bbe@Romans:15:3 @For Christ did not give pleasure to himself, but, as it is said, The bitter words of those who were angry with you came on me.

bbe@Romans:15:4 @Now those things which were put down in writing before our time were for our learning, so that through quiet waiting and through the comfort of the holy Writings we might have hope.

bbe@Romans:15:5 @Now may the God who gives comfort and strength in waiting make you of the same mind with one another in harmony with Christ Jesus:

bbe@Romans:15:6 @So that with one mouth you may give glory to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Romans:15:9 @And so that the Gentiles might give glory to God for his mercy; as it is said, For this reason I will give praise to you among the Gentiles, and I will make a song to your name.

bbe@Romans:15:13 @Now may the God of hope make you full of joy and peace through faith, so that all hope may be yours in the power of the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Romans:15:15 @But I have, in some measure, less fear in writing to you to put these things before you again, because of the grace which was given to me by God,

bbe@Romans:15:16 @To be a servant of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles, doing the work of a priest in the good news of God, so that the offering of the Gentiles might be pleasing to God, being made holy by the Holy Spirit.

bbe@Romans:15:19 @By signs and wonders, in the power of the Holy Spirit; so that from Jerusalem and round about as far as Illyricum I have given all the good news of Christ;

bbe@Romans:15:20 @Making it my purpose not to take the good news where Christ was named, so that my work might not be resting on that of others;

bbe@Romans:15:21 @But as it is said in the holy Writings, They will see, to whom the news of him had not been given, and those to whose ears it had not come will have knowledge.

bbe@Romans:15:24 @Whenever I go to Spain (for it is my hope to see you on my way, and to be sent on there by you, if first I may in some measure have been comforted by your company)--

bbe@Romans:15:26 @For it has been the good pleasure of those of Macedonia and Achaia to send a certain amount of money for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem.

bbe@Romans:15:27 @Yes, it has been their good pleasure; and they are in their debt. For if the Gentiles have had a part in the things of the Spirit which were theirs, it is right for them, in the same way, to give them help in the things of the flesh.

bbe@Romans:15:28 @So when I have done this, and have given them this fruit of love, I will go on by you into Spain.

bbe@Romans:15:30 @Now I make request to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you will be working together with me in your prayers to God for me;

bbe@Romans:15:32 @So that I may come to you in joy by the good pleasure of God, and have rest with you.

bbe@Romans:15:33 @Now may the God of peace be with you all. So be it.

bbe@Romans:16:1 @It is my desire to say a good word for Phoebe, who is a servant of the church in Cenchreae:

bbe@Romans:16:3 @Give my love to Prisca and Aquila, workers with me in Christ Jesus,

bbe@Romans:16:5 @And say a kind word to the church which is in their house. Give my love to my dear Epaenetus, who is the first fruit of Asia to Christ.

bbe@Romans:16:7 @Give my love to Andronicus and Junia, my relations, who were in prison with me, who are noted among the Apostles, and who were in Christ before me.

bbe@Romans:16:9 @Give my love to Urbanus, a worker in Christ with us, and to my dear Stachys.

bbe@Romans:16:14 @Give my love to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them.

bbe@Romans:16:15 @Give my love to Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them.

bbe@Romans:16:17 @Now, it is my desire, brothers, that you will take note of those who are causing division and trouble among you, quite against the teaching which was given to you: and keep away from them.

bbe@Romans:16:19 @For all have knowledge of how you do what you are ordered. For this reason I have joy in you, but it is my desire that you may be wise in what is good, and without knowledge of evil.

bbe@Romans:16:20 @And the God of peace will be crushing Satan under your feet before long. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

bbe@Romans:16:21 @Timothy, who is working with me, sends his love to you, so do Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my relations

bbe@Romans:16:22 @I, Tertius, who have done the writing of this letter, send love in the Lord.

bbe@Romans:16:23 @Gaius, with whom I am living, whose house is open to all the church, sends his love, so does Erastus, the manager of the accounts of the town, and Quartus, the brother.

bbe@Romans:16:25 @Now to him who is able to make you strong in agreement with the good news which I gave you and the preaching of Jesus Christ, in the light of the revelation of that secret which has been kept through times eternal,

bbe@Romans:16:26 @But is now made clear; and by the writings of the prophets, by the order of the eternal God, the knowledge of it has been given to all the nations, so that they may come under the rule of the faith;

bbe@Romans:16:27 @To the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be the glory for ever. So be it.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:2 @To the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been made holy in Christ Jesus, saints by the selection of God, with all those who in every place give honour to the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:

bbe@1Corinthians:1:6 @Even as the witness of the Christ has been made certain among you:

bbe@1Corinthians:1:9 @God is true, through whom you have been given a part with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:11 @Because it has come to my knowledge, through those of the house of Chloe, that there are divisions among you, my brothers.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:17 @For Christ sent me, not to give baptism, but to be a preacher of the good news: not with wise words, for fear that the cross of Christ might be made of no value.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:18 @For the word of the cross seems foolish to those who are on the way to destruction; but to us who are on the way to salvation it is the power of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:19 @As it says in the holy Writings, I will put an end to the wisdom of the wise, and will put on one side the designs of those who have knowledge.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:21 @For because, by the purpose of God, the world, with all its wisdom, had not the knowledge of God, it was God's pleasure, by so foolish a thing as preaching, to give salvation to those who had faith in him.

bbe@1Corinthians:1:28 @And the low things of the world, and the things without honour, did God make selection of, yes, even the things which are not, so that he might make as nothing the things which are:

bbe@1Corinthians:1:31 @So that, as it is said in the holy Writings, Whoever has a desire for glory, let his glory be in the Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:1 @And when I came to you, my brothers, I did not come with wise words of knowledge, putting before you the secret of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:3 @And I was with you without strength, in fear and in doubt.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:4 @And in my preaching there were no honeyed words of wisdom, but I was dependent on the power of the Spirit to make it clear to you:

bbe@1Corinthians:2:5 @So that your faith might be based not on man's wisdom but on the power of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:9 @But as it says in the holy Writings, Things which the eye saw not, and which had not come to the ears or into the heart of man, such things as God has made ready for those who have love for him.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:10 @But God has given us the revelation of these things through his Spirit, for the Spirit makes search into all things, even the deep things of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:11 @For who has knowledge of the things of a man but the spirit of the man which is in him? in the same way, no one has knowledge of the things of God but the Spirit of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:12 @But we have not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which comes from God, so that we may have knowledge of the things which are freely given to us by God.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:13 @And these are the things which we say, not in the language of man's wisdom, but in words given to us by the Spirit, judging the things of the spirit by the help of the Spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:14 @For the natural man is not able to take in the things of the Spirit of God: for they seem foolish to him, and he is not able to have knowledge of them, because such knowledge comes only through the Spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:2:15 @But he who has the Spirit, though judging all things, is himself judged by no one.

bbe@1Corinthians:3:1 @And the teaching I gave you, my brothers, was such as I was able to give, not to those who have the Spirit, but to those who are still in the flesh, even to children in Christ.

bbe@1Corinthians:3:2 @I gave you milk and not meat, because you were, then, unable to take it, and even now you are not able;

bbe@1Corinthians:3:5 @What then is Apollos? and what is Paul? They are but servants who gave you the good news as God gave it to them.

bbe@1Corinthians:3:9 @For we are workers with God: you are God's planting, God's building.

bbe@1Corinthians:3:10 @In the measure of the grace given to me, I, as a wise master-builder, have put the base in position, and another goes on building on it

bbe@1Corinthians:3:13 @Every man's work will be made clear in that day, because it will be tested by fire; and the fire itself will make clear the quality of every man's work.

bbe@1Corinthians:3:15 @If the fire puts an end to any man's work, it will be his loss: but he will get salvation himself, though as by fire.

bbe@1Corinthians:3:16 @Do you not see that you are God's holy house, and that the Spirit of God has his place in you?

bbe@1Corinthians:3:19 @For the wisdom of this world is foolish before God. As it is said in the holy Writings, He who takes the wise in their secret designs:

bbe@1Corinthians:4:2 @And it is right for such servants to be safe persons.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:3 @But it is a small thing to me that I am judged by you or by man's judging; I am not even a judge of myself.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:4 @For I am not conscious of any wrong in myself; but this does not make me clear, for it is the Lord who is my judge.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:6 @My brothers, it is because of you that I have taken Apollos and myself as examples of these things, so that in us you might see that it is not wise to go farther than what is in the holy Writings, so that no one of you may be lifted up against his brother.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:7 @For who made you better than your brother? or what have you that has not been given to you? but if it has been given to you, what cause have you for pride, as if it had not been given to you?

bbe@1Corinthians:4:8 @For even now you are full, even now you have wealth, you have been made kings without us: truly, I would be glad if you were kings, so that we might be kings with you.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:9 @For it seems to me that God has put us the Apostles last of all, as men whose fate is death: for we are put on view to the world, and to angels, and to men.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:11 @Even to this hour we are without food, drink, and clothing, we are given blows and have no certain resting-place;

bbe@1Corinthians:4:12 @And with our hands we do the hardest work: when they give us curses we give blessings, when we undergo punishment we take it quietly;

bbe@1Corinthians:4:19 @But I will come to you in a short time, if it is pleasing to the Lord, and I will take note, not of the word of those who are full of pride, but of the power.

bbe@1Corinthians:4:21 @What is your desire? is my coming to be with punishment, or is it to be in love and a gentle spirit?

bbe@1Corinthians:5:1 @It is said, in fact, that there is among you a sin of the flesh, such as is not seen even among the Gentiles, that one of you has his father's wife.

bbe@1Corinthians:5:2 @And in place of feeling sorrow, you are pleased with yourselves, so that he who has done this thing has not been sent away from among you.

bbe@1Corinthians:5:3 @For I myself, being present in spirit though not in body, have come to a decision about him who has done this thing;

bbe@1Corinthians:5:4 @In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you have come together with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

bbe@1Corinthians:5:5 @That this man is to be handed over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may have forgiveness in the day of the Lord Jesus.

bbe@1Corinthians:5:6 @This pride of yours is not good. Do you not see that a little leaven makes a change in all the mass?

bbe@1Corinthians:5:7 @Take away, then, the old leaven, so that you may be a new mass, even as you are without leaven. For Christ has been put to death as our Passover.

bbe@1Corinthians:5:8 @Let us then keep the feast, not with old leaven, and not with the leaven of evil thoughts and acts, but with the unleavened bread of true thoughts and right feelings.

bbe@1Corinthians:5:9 @In my letter I said to you that you were not to keep company with those who go after the desires of the flesh;

bbe@1Corinthians:5:10 @But I had not in mind the sinners who are outside the church, or those who have a desire for and take the property of others, or those who give worship to images; for it is not possible to keep away from such people without going out of the world completely:

bbe@1Corinthians:5:11 @But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.

bbe@1Corinthians:5:12 @For it is no business of mine to be judging those who are outside; but it is yours to be judging those who are among you;

bbe@1Corinthians:6:1 @How is it, that if any one of you has a cause at law against another, he takes it before a Gentile judge and not before the saints?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:2 @Is it not certain that the saints will be the judges of the world? if then the world will be judged by you, are you unable to give a decision about the smallest things?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:3 @Is it not certain that we are to be the judges of angels? how much more then of the things of this life?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:4 @If then there are questions to be judged in connection with the things of this life, why do you put them in the hands of those who have no position in the church?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:6 @But a brother who has a cause at law against another takes it before Gentile judges.

bbe@1Corinthians:6:7 @More than this, it is not to your credit to have causes at law with one another at all. Why not put up with wrong? why not undergo loss?

bbe@1Corinthians:6:11 @And such were some of you; but you have been washed, you have been made holy, you have been given righteousness in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

bbe@1Corinthians:6:15 @Do you not see that your bodies are part of the body of Christ? how then may I take what is a part of the body of Christ and make it a part of the body of a loose woman? such a thing may not be.

bbe@1Corinthians:6:16 @Or do you not see that he who is joined to a loose woman is one body with her? for God has said, The two of them will become one flesh.

bbe@1Corinthians:6:17 @But he who is united to the Lord is one spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:6:19 @Or are you not conscious that your body is a house for the Holy Spirit which is in you, and which has been given to you by God? and you are not the owners of yourselves;

bbe@1Corinthians:7:1 @Now, as to the things in your letter to me: It is good for a man to have nothing to do with a woman.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:7 @It is my desire that all men might be even as I am. But every man has the power of his special way of life given him by God, one in this way and one in that.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:8 @But I say to the unmarried and to the widows, It is good for them to be even as I am.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:11 @(Or if she goes away from him, let her keep unmarried, or be united to her husband again); and that the husband may not go away from his wife.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:12 @But to the rest I say, and not the Lord; If a brother has a wife who is not a Christian, and it is her desire to go on living with him, let him not go away from her.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:13 @And if a woman has a husband who is not a Christian, and it is his desire to go on living with her, let her not go away from her husband.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:14 @For the husband who has not faith is made holy through his Christian wife, and the wife who is not a Christian is made holy through the brother: if not, your children would be unholy, but now are they holy.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:15 @But if the one who is not a Christian has a desire to go away, let it be so: the brother or the sister in such a position is not forced to do one thing or the other: but it is God's pleasure that we may be at peace with one another.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:19 @Circumcision is nothing, and its opposite is nothing, but only doing the orders of God is of value.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:20 @Let every man keep the position in which he has been placed by God.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:21 @If you were a servant when you became a Christian, let it not be a grief to you; but if you have a chance to become free, make use of it.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:23 @It is the Lord who has made payment for you: be not servants of men.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:24 @My brothers, let every man keep in that condition which is the purpose of God for him.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:26 @In my opinion then, because of the present trouble, it is good for a man to keep as he is.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:28 @If you get married it is not a sin; and if an unmarried woman gets married it is not a sin. But those who do so will have trouble in the flesh. But I will not be hard on you.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:29 @But I say this, my brothers, the time is short; and from now it will be wise for those who have wives to be as if they had them not;

bbe@1Corinthians:7:30 @And for those who are in sorrow, to give no signs of it; and for those who are glad, to give no signs of joy; and for those who are getting property, to be as if they had nothing;

bbe@1Corinthians:7:31 @And for those who make use of the world, not to be using it fully; for this world's way of life will quickly come to an end.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:32 @But it is my desire for you to be free from cares. The unmarried man gives his mind to the things of the Lord, how he may give pleasure to the Lord:

bbe@1Corinthians:7:34 @And the wife is not the same as the virgin. The virgin gives her mind to the things of the Lord, so that she may be holy in body and in spirit: but the married woman takes thought for the things of the world, how she may give pleasure to her husband.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:35 @Now I say this for your profit; not to make things hard for you, but because of what is right, and so that you may be able to give all your attention to the things of the Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:36 @But if, in any man's opinion, he is not doing what is right for his virgin, if she is past her best years, and there is need for it, let him do what seems right to him; it is no sin; let them be married.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:39 @It is right for a wife to be with her husband as long as he is living; but when her husband is dead, she is free to be married to another; but only to a Christian.

bbe@1Corinthians:7:40 @But it will be better for her to keep as she is, in my opinion: and it seems to me that I have the Spirit of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:8:7 @Still, all men have not that knowledge: but some, being used till now to the image, are conscious that they are taking food which has been offered to the image; and because they are not strong in the faith, their minds are troubled.

bbe@1Corinthians:8:8 @But God's approval of us is not based on the food we take: if we do not take it we are no worse for it; and if we take it we are no better.

bbe@1Corinthians:8:10 @For if a man sees you, who have knowledge, taking food as a guest in the house of an image, will it not give him, if he is feeble, the idea that he may take food offered to images?

bbe@1Corinthians:8:12 @And in this way, doing evil to the brothers, and causing trouble to those whose faith is feeble, you are sinning against Christ.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:5 @Have we no right to take about with us a Christian wife, like the rest of the Apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

bbe@1Corinthians:9:7 @Who ever goes to war without looking to someone to be responsible for his payment? who puts in vines and does not take the fruit of them? or who takes care of sheep without drinking of their milk?

bbe@1Corinthians:9:9 @For it says in the law of Moses, It is not right to keep the ox from taking the grain when he is crushing it. Is it for the oxen that God is giving orders?

bbe@1Corinthians:9:10 @Or has he us in mind? Yes, it was said for us; because it is right for the ploughman to do his ploughing in hope, and for him who is crushing the grain to do his work hoping for a part in the fruits of it.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:11 @If we have been planting the things of the Spirit for you, does it seem a great thing for you to give us a part in your things of this world?

bbe@1Corinthians:9:15 @But I have not made use of any of these things: and I am not writing this in the hope that it may be so for me: for it would be better for me to undergo death, than for any man to make this pride of mine of no effect.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:17 @But if I do it gladly, I have a reward; and if not, I am under orders to do it.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:18 @What then is my reward? This, that when I am giving the good news, I may give it without payment, not making use of my rights as a preacher of the good news.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:21 @To those without the law I was as one without the law, not as being without law to God, but as under law to Christ, so that I might give the good news to those without the law.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:23 @And I do all things for the cause of the good news, so that I may have a part in it.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:24 @Do you not see that in a running competition all take part, but only one gets the reward? So let your minds be fixed on the reward.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:25 @And every man who takes part in the sports has self-control in all things. Now they do it to get a crown which is of this world, but we for an eternal crown.

bbe@1Corinthians:9:27 @But I give blows to my body, and keep it under control, for fear that, after having given the good news to others, I myself might not have God's approval.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:1 @For it is my desire, my brothers, that you may keep in mind how all our fathers were under the cloud, and they all went through the sea;

bbe@1Corinthians:10:5 @But with most of them God was not pleased: for they came to their end in the waste land.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:7 @Then do not go after false gods, as some of them did; as it is said in the holy Writings, After resting and feasting, the people got up to take their pleasure.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:11 @Now these things were done as an example; and were put down in writing for our teaching, on whom the last days have come.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:13 @You have been put to no test but such as is common to man: and God is true, who will not let any test come on you which you are not able to undergo; but he will make with the test a way out of it, so that you may be able to go through it.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:15 @What I am saying is for wise men, do you be the judges of it.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:16 @The cup of blessing which we take, does it not give us a part in the blood of Christ? and is not the broken bread a taking part in the body of Christ?

bbe@1Corinthians:10:20 @What I say is that the things offered by the Gentiles are offered to evil spirits and not to God; and it is not my desire for you to have any part with evil spirits.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:21 @It is not possible for you, at the same time, to take the cup of the Lord and the cup of evil spirits; you may not take part in the table of the Lord and the table of evil spirits.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:23 @We are free to do all things, but there are things which it is not wise to do. We are free to do all things, but not all things are for the common good.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:25 @Whatever meat may be had at the public market, take as food without question of right or wrong;

bbe@1Corinthians:10:26 @For the earth is the Lord's and all things in it.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:27 @If a Gentile makes a feast for you, and you are pleased to go as a guest, take whatever is put before you, without question of right or wrong.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:28 @But if anyone says to you, This food has been used as an offering, do not take it, on account of him who said it, and on account of his sense of right and wrong:

bbe@1Corinthians:10:31 @So then, if it is a question of food or drink, or any other thing, whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:10:33 @Even as I give way to all men in all things, not looking for profit for myself, but for the good of others, that they may get salvation.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:3 @But it is important for you to keep this fact in mind, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:4 @Every man who takes part in prayer, or gives teaching as a prophet, with his head covered, puts shame on his head.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:5 @But every woman who does so with her head unveiled, puts shame on her head: for it is the same as if her hair was cut off.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:6 @For if a woman is not veiled, let her hair be cut off; but if it is a shame to a woman to have her hair cut off, let her be veiled.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:7 @For it is not right for a man to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God: but the woman is the glory of the man.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:10 @For this reason it is right for the woman to have a sign of authority on her head, because of the angels.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:13 @Be judges yourselves of the question: does it seem right for a woman to take part in prayer unveiled?

bbe@1Corinthians:11:14 @Does it not seem natural to you that if a man has long hair, it is a cause of shame to him?

bbe@1Corinthians:11:15 @But if a woman has long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given to her for a covering.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:16 @But if any man will not be ruled in this question, this is not our way of doing things, and it is not done in the churches of God.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:17 @But in giving you this order, there is one thing about which I am not pleased: it is that when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:18 @For first of all, it has come to my ears that when you come together in the church, there are divisions among you, and I take the statement to be true in part.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:20 @But now, when you come together, it is not possible to take the holy meal of the Lord:

bbe@1Corinthians:11:23 @For it was handed down to me from the Lord, as I gave it to you, that the Lord Jesus, on the night when Judas was false to him, took bread,

bbe@1Corinthians:11:24 @And when it had been broken with an act of praise, he said, This is my body which is for you: do this in memory of me.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:25 @In the same way, with the cup, after the meal, he said, This cup is the new testament in my blood: do this, whenever you take it, in memory of me.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:26 @For whenever you take the bread and the cup you give witness to the Lord's death till he comes.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:27 @If, then, anyone takes the bread or the cup of the Lord in the wrong spirit, he will be responsible for the body and blood of the Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:28 @But let no man take of the bread and the cup without testing himself.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:29 @For a man puts himself in danger, if he takes part in the holy meal without being conscious that it is the Lord's body.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:32 @But if punishment does come, it is sent by the Lord, so that we may be safe when the world is judged.

bbe@1Corinthians:11:33 @So then, my brothers, when you come together to the holy meal of the Lord, let there be waiting for one another.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:1 @But about the things of the spirit, my brothers, it is not right for you to be without teaching.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:2 @You are conscious that when you were Gentiles, in whatever way you were guided, you went after images without voice or power.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:3 @So it is my desire for you to be clear about this; that no one is able to say by the Spirit of God that Jesus is cursed; and no one is able to say that Jesus is Lord, but by the Holy Spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:4 @Now there are different qualities given to men, but the same Spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:7 @But to every man some form of the Spirit's working is given for the common good.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:8 @For to one are given words of wisdom through the Spirit; and to another words of knowledge through the same Spirit:

bbe@1Corinthians:12:9 @To another faith in the same Spirit; and to another the power of taking away disease, by the one Spirit;

bbe@1Corinthians:12:10 @And to another the power of working wonders; and to another the prophet's word; and to another the power of testing spirits; to another different sorts of tongues; and to another the power of making clear the sense of the tongues:

bbe@1Corinthians:12:11 @But all these are the operations of the one and the same Spirit, giving to every man separately as his pleasure is.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:13 @For through the baptism of the one Spirit we were all formed into one body, Jews or Greeks, servants or free men, and were all made full of the same Spirit

bbe@1Corinthians:12:15 @If the foot says, Because I am not the hand, I am not a part of the body; it is no less a part of the body.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:16 @And if the ear says, Because I am not the eye, I am not a part of the body; it is a part of the body all the same.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:18 @But now God has put every one of the parts in the body as it was pleasing to him.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:24 @But those parts of the body which are beautiful have no need of such care: and so the body has been joined together by God in such a way as to give more honour to those parts which had need of it;

bbe@1Corinthians:12:26 @And if there is pain in one part of the body, all the parts will be feeling it; or if one part is honoured, all the parts will be glad.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:27 @Now you are the body of Christ, and every one of you the separate parts of it.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:28 @And God has put some in the church, first, Apostles; second, prophets; third, teachers; then those with wonder-working powers, then those with the power of taking away disease, helpers, wise guides, users of strange tongues.

bbe@1Corinthians:12:31 @But let your desires be turned to the more important things given by the Spirit. And now I am pointing out to you an even better way.

bbe@1Corinthians:13:2 @And if I have a prophet's power, and have knowledge of all secret things; and if I have all faith, by which mountains may be moved from their place, but have not love, I am nothing.

bbe@1Corinthians:13:3 @And if I give all my goods to the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it is of no profit to me.

bbe@1Corinthians:13:4 @Love is never tired of waiting; love is kind; love has no envy; love has no high opinion of itself, love has no pride;

bbe@1Corinthians:13:5 @Love's ways are ever fair, it takes no thought for itself; it is not quickly made angry, it takes no account of evil;

bbe@1Corinthians:13:6 @It takes no pleasure in wrongdoing, but has joy in what is true;

bbe@1Corinthians:13:7 @Love has the power of undergoing all things, having faith in all things, hoping all things.

bbe@1Corinthians:13:12 @For now we see things in a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now my knowledge is in part; then it will be complete, even as God's knowledge of me.

bbe@1Corinthians:13:13 @But now we still have faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:1 @Go after love; still desiring to have the things which the Spirit gives, but most of all that you may have the prophet's power.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:2 @For he who makes use of tongues is not talking to men but to God; because no one has the sense of what he is saying; but in the Spirit he is talking of secret things.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:5 @Now though it is my desire for you all to have the power of tongues, it would give me more pleasure to be hearing the prophet's word from you; for this is a greater thing than using tongues, if the sense is not given at the same time, for the good of the church.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:6 @But, now, my brothers, if I come to you using tongues, what profit will it be to you, if I do not give you a revelation, or knowledge, or the word of the prophet, or teaching?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:7 @Even things without life, having a voice, such as a music-pipe or other instrument, if they do not give out different sounds, who may be certain what is being played?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:10 @There are, it may be, a number of different voices in the world, and no voice is without sense.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:12 @So if you are desiring the things which the Spirit gives, let your minds be turned first to the things which are for the good of the church.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:14 @For if I make use of tongues in my prayers, my spirit makes the prayer, but not my mind.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:15 @What then? let my prayer be from the spirit, and equally from the mind; let my song be from the spirit, and equally from mind.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:16 @For if you give a blessing with the spirit, how will the man who has no knowledge say, So be it, after your prayer, seeing that he has not taken in what you are saying?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:17 @For your giving of the blessing is certainly well done, but of no profit to the man without knowledge

bbe@1Corinthians:14:19 @But in the church it would be better for me to make use of five words of which the sense was clear, so that others might have profit, than ten thousand words in a strange tongue.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:20 @My brothers, do not be children in mind: in evil be as little children, but in mind be of full growth.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:21 @In the law it is said, By men of other tongues and by strange lips will my words come to this people; and not even so will they give ear to me, says the Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:22 @For this reason tongues are for a sign, not to those who have faith, but to those who have not: but the prophet's word is for those who have faith, and not for the rest who have not.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:23 @If, then, the church has come together, and all are using tongues, and there come in men without knowledge or faith, will they not say that you are unbalanced?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:24 @But if all are teaching as prophets, and a man without faith or knowledge comes in, he is tested by all, he is judged by all;

bbe@1Corinthians:14:26 @What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:27 @If any man makes use of a tongue, let it not be more than two, or at the most three, and in turn; and let someone give the sense:

bbe@1Corinthians:14:32 @And the spirits of the prophets are controlled by the prophets;

bbe@1Corinthians:14:33 @For God is not a God whose ways are without order, but a God of peace; as in all the churches of the saints.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:34 @Let women keep quiet in the churches: for it is not right for them to be talking; but let them be under control, as it says in the law.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:36 @What? was it from you that the word of God went out? or did it only come in to you?

bbe@1Corinthians:14:37 @If any man seems to himself to be a prophet or to have the Spirit, let him take note of the things which I am writing to you, as being the word of the Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:38 @But if any man is without knowledge, let him be so.

bbe@1Corinthians:14:39 @So then, my brothers, let it be your chief desire to be prophets; but let no one be stopped from using tongues.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:1 @Now I am going to make clear to you, my brothers, what the good news was which I gave to you, and which you took, and on which your faith is based,

bbe@1Corinthians:15:2 @By which you have salvation; that is to say, the form in which it was given to you, if it is fixed in your minds, and if your faith in it is not without effect.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:3 @For I gave to you first of all what was handed down to me, how Christ underwent death for our sins, as it says in the Writings;

bbe@1Corinthians:15:4 @And he was put in the place of the dead; and on the third day he came back from the dead, as it says in the Writings;

bbe@1Corinthians:15:10 @But by the grace of God, I am what I am: and his grace which was given to me has not been for nothing; for I did more work than all of them; though not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:11 @If then it is I who am the preacher, or they, this is our word, and to this you have given your faith.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:14 @And if Christ did not come again from the dead, then our good news and your faith in it are of no effect.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:15 @Yes, and we are seen to be false witnesses of God; because we gave witness of God that by his power Christ came again from the dead: which is not true if there is no coming back from the dead.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:16 @For if it is not possible for the dead to come to life again, then Christ has not come to life again:

bbe@1Corinthians:15:17 @And if that is so, your faith is of no effect; you are still in your sins.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:18 @And, in addition, the dead in Christ have gone to destruction.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:20 @But now Christ has truly come back from the dead, the first-fruits of those who are sleeping.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:23 @But every man in his right order: Christ the first-fruits; then those who are Christ's at his coming.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:24 @Then comes the end, when he will give up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he will have put an end to all rule and to all authority and power.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:27 @For, as it says, He has put all things under his feet. But when he says, All things are put under him, it is clear that it is not said about him who put all things under him.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:32 @If, after the way of men, I was fighting with beasts at Ephesus, what profit is it to me? If the dead do not come to life again, let us take our pleasure in feasting, for tomorrow we come to an end.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:35 @But someone will say, How do the dead come back? and with what sort of body do they come?

bbe@1Corinthians:15:36 @Foolish man, it is necessary for the seed which you put into the earth to undergo death in order that it may come to life again:

bbe@1Corinthians:15:37 @And when you put it into the earth, you do not put in the body which it will be, but only the seed, of grain or some other sort of plant;

bbe@1Corinthians:15:38 @But God gives it a body, as it is pleasing to him, and to every seed its special body.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:42 @So is it with the coming back from the dead. It is planted in death; it comes again in life:

bbe@1Corinthians:15:43 @It is planted in shame; it comes again in glory: feeble when it is planted, it comes again in power:

bbe@1Corinthians:15:44 @It is planted a natural body; it comes again as a body of the spirit. If there is a natural body, there is equally a body of the spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:45 @And so it is said, The first man Adam was a living soul. The last Adam is a life-giving spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:46 @But that which is natural comes before that which is of the spirit.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:50 @Now I say this, my brothers, that it is not possible for flesh and blood to have a part in the kingdom of God; and death may not have a part in life.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:54 @But when this has taken place, then that which was said in the Writings will come true, Death is overcome by life.

bbe@1Corinthians:15:58 @For this cause, my dear brothers, be strong in purpose and unmoved, ever giving yourselves to the work of the Lord, because you are certain that your work is not without effect in the Lord.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:2 @On the first day of the week, let every one of you put by him in store, in measure as he has done well in business, so that it may not be necessary to get money together when I come.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:3 @And when I come, I will send the men of your selection with letters to take the money you have got together to Jerusalem.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:4 @And if it is possible for me to go there, they will go with me.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:6 @But I may be with you for a time, or even for the winter, so that you may see me on my way, wherever I go.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:7 @For it is not my desire to see you now, on my way; because it is my hope to be with you for some time, if that is the Lord's pleasure.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:10 @Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear; because he is doing the Lord's work, even as I am:

bbe@1Corinthians:16:11 @See then that he has the honour which is right. But send him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me: for I am looking for him with the brothers.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:12 @But as for Apollos, the brother, I had a great desire for him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not his pleasure to come now; but he will come when he has a chance.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:13 @Be on the watch, unmoved in the faith, and be strong like men.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:15 @Now I make my request to you, my brothers, for you have knowledge that the house of Stephanas is the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have made themselves the servants of the saints,

bbe@1Corinthians:16:18 @For they gave comfort to my spirit and to yours: for which cause give respect to such people.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:19 @The churches of Asia send their love to you. So do Aquila and Prisca, with the church which is in their house.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:21 @I, Paul, send you these words of love in my writing

bbe@1Corinthians:16:23 @The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

bbe@1Corinthians:16:24 @My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. So be it.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:1 @Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ by the purpose of God, and Timothy the brother, to the church of God which is in Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia:

bbe@2Corinthians:1:4 @Who gives us comfort in all our troubles, so that we may be able to give comfort to others who are in trouble, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:6 @But if we are troubled, it is for your comfort and salvation; or if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which takes effect through your quiet undergoing of the same troubles which we undergo:

bbe@2Corinthians:1:8 @For it is our desire that you may not be without knowledge of our trouble which came on us in Asia, that the weight of it was very great, more than our power, so that it seemed that we had no hope even of life:

bbe@2Corinthians:1:13 @For in our letters we say no other things to you, but those which you are reading, and to which you give agreement, and, it is my hope, will go on doing so to the end:

bbe@2Corinthians:1:15 @And being certain of this, it was my purpose to come to you before, so that you might have a second grace;

bbe@2Corinthians:1:21 @Now he who makes our faith strong together with you, in Christ, and has given us of his grace, is God;

bbe@2Corinthians:1:22 @And it is he who has put his stamp on us, even the Spirit, as the sign in our hearts of the coming glory.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:23 @But God is my witness that it was in pity for you that I did not come to Corinth at that time.

bbe@2Corinthians:1:24 @Not that we have authority over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy: for it is faith which is your support.

bbe@2Corinthians:2:1 @But it was my decision for myself, not to come again to you with sorrow.

bbe@2Corinthians:2:3 @And I said this very thing in my letter, for fear that when I came I might have sorrow from those from whom it was right for me to have joy; being certain of this, that my joy is the joy of you all.

bbe@2Corinthians:2:6 @Let it be enough for such a man to have undergone the punishment which the church put on him;

bbe@2Corinthians:2:7 @So that now, on the other hand, it is right for him to have forgiveness and comfort from you, for fear that his sorrow may be over-great.

bbe@2Corinthians:2:10 @But if you give forgiveness to anyone, I do the same: for if I have given forgiveness for anything, I have done it because of you, in the person of Christ;

bbe@2Corinthians:2:11 @So that Satan may not get the better of us: for we are not without knowledge of his designs.

bbe@2Corinthians:2:13 @I had no rest in my spirit because Titus my brother was not there: so I went away from them, and came into Macedonia.

bbe@2Corinthians:2:16 @To the one it is a perfume of death to death; to the other a perfume of life to life. And who is enough for such things?

bbe@2Corinthians:2:17 @For we are not like the great number who make use of the word of God for profit: but our words are true, as from God, being said as before God in Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:3:2 @You yourselves are our letter, whose writing is in our heart, open for every man's reading and knowledge;

bbe@2Corinthians:3:3 @For you are clearly a letter of Christ, the fruit of our work, recorded not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in stone, but in hearts of flesh.

bbe@2Corinthians:3:4 @And this is the certain faith which we have in God through Christ:

bbe@2Corinthians:3:5 @Not as if we were able by ourselves to do anything for which we might take the credit; but our power comes from God;

bbe@2Corinthians:3:6 @Who has made us able to be servants of a new agreement; not of the letter, but of the Spirit: for the letter gives death, but the Spirit gives life.

bbe@2Corinthians:3:7 @For if the operation of the law, giving death, recorded in letters on stone, came with glory, so that the eyes of the children of Israel had to be turned away from the face of Moses because of its glory, a glory which was only for a time:

bbe@2Corinthians:3:8 @Will not the operation of the Spirit have a much greater glory?

bbe@2Corinthians:3:9 @For if the operation of the law, producing punishment, had its glory, how much greater will be the operation of the Spirit causing righteousness?

bbe@2Corinthians:3:11 @For if the order which was for a time had its glory, much more will the eternal order have its glory.

bbe@2Corinthians:3:14 @But their minds were made hard: for to this very day at the reading of the old agreement the same veil is still unlifted; though it is taken away in Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:3:16 @But when it is turned to the Lord, the veil will be taken away.

bbe@2Corinthians:3:17 @Now the Lord is the Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there the heart is free.

bbe@2Corinthians:3:18 @But we all, with unveiled face giving back as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord who is the Spirit.

bbe@2Corinthians:4:2 @And we have given up the secret things of shame, not walking in false ways, and not making use of the word of God with deceit; but by the revelation of what is true, as before God, we have the approval of every man's sense of right and wrong.

bbe@2Corinthians:4:3 @But if our good news is veiled, it is veiled from those who are on the way to destruction:

bbe@2Corinthians:4:4 @Because the god of this world has made blind the minds of those who have not faith, so that the light of the good news of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, might not be shining on them.

bbe@2Corinthians:4:6 @Seeing that it is God who said, Let light be shining out of the dark, who has put in our hearts the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:4:7 @But we have this wealth in vessels of earth, so that it may be seen that the power comes not from us but from God;

bbe@2Corinthians:4:9 @We are cruelly attacked, but not without hope; we are made low, but we are not without help;

bbe@2Corinthians:4:11 @For, while living, we are still being given up to death because of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our flesh, though it is under the power of death.

bbe@2Corinthians:4:13 @But having the same spirit of faith, as it is said in the Writings, The words of my mouth came from the faith in my heart; in the same way, our words are the outcome of our faith;

bbe@2Corinthians:4:14 @Because we are certain that he who made the Lord Jesus come back from the dead, will do the same for us, and will give us a place in his glory with you.

bbe@2Corinthians:5:1 @For we are conscious that if this our tent of flesh is taken down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in heaven.

bbe@2Corinthians:5:2 @For in this we are crying in weariness, greatly desiring to be clothed with our house from heaven:

bbe@2Corinthians:5:3 @So that our spirits may not be unclothed.

bbe@2Corinthians:5:5 @Now he who has made us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a witness of what is to come.

bbe@2Corinthians:5:6 @So, then, we are ever without fear, and though conscious that while we are in the body we are away from the Lord,

bbe@2Corinthians:5:7 @(For we are walking by faith, not by seeing,)

bbe@2Corinthians:5:8 @We are without fear, desiring to be free from the body, and to be with the Lord.

bbe@2Corinthians:5:9 @For this reason we make it our purpose, in the body or away from it, to be well-pleasing to him.

bbe@2Corinthians:5:11 @Having in mind, then, the fear of the Lord, we put these things before men, but God sees our hearts; and it is my hope that we may seem right in your eyes.

bbe@2Corinthians:5:13 @For if we are foolish, it is to God; or if we are serious, it is for you.

bbe@2Corinthians:5:14 @For it is the love of Christ which is moving us; because we are of the opinion that if one was put to death for all, then all have undergone death;

bbe@2Corinthians:5:18 @But all things are of God, who has made us at peace with himself through Christ, and has given to us the work of making peace;

bbe@2Corinthians:5:20 @So we are the representatives of Christ, as if God was making a request to you through us: we make our request to you, in the name of Christ, be at peace with God.

bbe@2Corinthians:6:1 @We then, working together with God, make our request to you not to take the grace of God to no purpose.

bbe@2Corinthians:6:4 @But in everything making it clear that we are the servants of God, in quiet strength, in troubles, in need, in sorrow,

bbe@2Corinthians:6:5 @In blows, in prisons, in attacks, in hard work, in watchings, in going without food;

bbe@2Corinthians:6:6 @In a clean heart, in knowledge, in long waiting, in being kind, in the Holy Spirit, in true love,

bbe@2Corinthians:6:7 @In the true word, in the power of God; with the arms of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

bbe@2Corinthians:6:12 @It is not our feelings to you which are narrow, but yours to us.

bbe@2Corinthians:6:14 @Do not keep company with those who have not faith: for what is there in common between righteousness and evil, or between light and dark?

bbe@2Corinthians:6:15 @And what agreement is there between Christ and the Evil One? or what part has one who has faith with one who has not?

bbe@2Corinthians:6:16 @And what agreement has the house of God with images? for we are a house of the living God; even as God has said, I will be living among them, and walking with them; and I will be their God, and they will be my people.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:1 @Because God, then, will give us such rewards, dear brothers, let us make ourselves clean from all evil of flesh and spirit, and become completely holy in the fear of God.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:2 @Let your hearts be open to us: we have done no man wrong, no man has been damaged by us, we have made no profit out of any man,

bbe@2Corinthians:7:3 @It is not with the purpose of judging you that I say this: for I have said before that you are in our hearts for life and death together.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:4 @My words to you are without fear, I am full of pride on account of you: I have great comfort and joy in all our troubles.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:6 @But God who gives comfort to the poor in spirit gave us comfort by the coming of Titus;

bbe@2Corinthians:7:8 @For though my letter gave you pain, I have no regret for it now, though I had before; for I see that the letter gave you pain, but only for a time.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:11 @For you see what care was produced in you by this very sorrow of yours before God, what clearing of yourselves, what wrath against sin, what fear, what desire, what serious purpose, what punishment. In everything you have made it clear that you are free from sin in this business.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:12 @So though I sent you a letter, it was not only because of the man who did the wrong, or because of him to whom the wrong was done, but so that your true care for us might be made clear in the eyes of God.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:13 @So we have been comforted: and we had the greater joy in our comfort because of the joy of Titus, for his spirit had been made glad by you all.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:14 @For I was not put to shame in anything in which I may have made clear to him my pride in you; but as we said nothing to you but what was true, so the good things which I said to Titus about you were seen by him to be true.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:15 @And his love to you is the more increased by his memory of you all, how you gave way to his authority, and how you took him to your hearts with fear and honour.

bbe@2Corinthians:7:16 @It gives me great joy to see you answering to my good opinion of you in every way

bbe@2Corinthians:8:3 @For I give them witness, that as they were able, and even more than they were able, they gave from the impulse of their hearts,

bbe@2Corinthians:8:6 @So that we made a request to Titus that, as he had made a start before, so he might make this grace complete in you.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:7 @And that as you are full of every good thing, of faith, of the word, of knowledge, of a ready mind, and of love to us, so you may be full of this grace in the same way.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:8 @I am not giving you an order, but using the ready mind of others as a test of the quality of your love.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:10 @And in this I give my opinion: for it is to your profit, who were the first to make a start a year before, not only to do this, but to make clear that your minds were more than ready to do it.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:11 @Then make the doing of it complete; so that as you had a ready mind, you may give effect to it as you are able.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:15 @As it says in the Writings, He who had taken up much had nothing over and he who had little had enough.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:16 @But praise be to God, who puts the same care for you into the heart of Titus.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:18 @And with him we have sent a brother whose praise in the good news has gone through all the churches;

bbe@2Corinthians:8:19 @And not only so, but he was marked out by the churches to go with us in the grace of this giving which we have undertaken to the glory of the Lord and to make clear that our mind was ready:

bbe@2Corinthians:8:22 @And we have sent with them our brother, whose ready spirit has been made clear to us at times and in ways without number, but it is now all the more so because of the certain faith which he has in you.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:23 @If any question comes up about Titus, he is my brother-worker, working with me for you; or about the others, they are the representatives of the churches to the glory of Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:8:24 @Make clear then to them, as representatives of the churches, the quality of your love, and that the things which we have said about you are true.

bbe@2Corinthians:9:4 @For fear that, if any from Macedonia come with me, and you are not ready, we (not to say, you) might be put to shame in this thing.

bbe@2Corinthians:9:5 @So it seemed to me wise for the brothers to go before, and see that the amount which you had undertaken to give was ready, so that it might be a cause for praise, and not as if we were making profit out of you.

bbe@2Corinthians:9:6 @But in the Writings it says, He who puts in only a small number of seeds, will get in the same; and he who puts them in from a full hand, will have produce in full measure from them.

bbe@2Corinthians:9:7 @Let every man do after the purpose of his heart; not giving with grief, or by force: for God takes pleasure in a ready giver.

bbe@2Corinthians:9:9 @As it is said in the Writings, He has sent out far and wide, he has given to the poor; his righteousness is for ever.

bbe@2Corinthians:9:10 @And he who gives seed for putting into the field and bread for food, will take care of the growth of your seed, at the same time increasing the fruits of your righteousness;

bbe@2Corinthians:9:11 @Your wealth being increased in everything, with a simple mind, causing praise to God through us.

bbe@2Corinthians:10:1 @Now I, Paul, myself make request to you by the quiet and gentle behaviour of Christ, I who am poor in spirit when with you, but who say what is in my mind to you without fear when I am away from you:

bbe@2Corinthians:10:2 @Yes, I make my request to you, so that when I am with you I may not have to make use of the authority which may be needed against some to whom we seem to be walking after the flesh.

bbe@2Corinthians:10:4 @(For the arms with which we are fighting are not those of the flesh, but are strong before God for the destruction of high places);

bbe@2Corinthians:10:5 @Putting an end to reasonings, and every high thing which is lifted up against the knowledge of God, and causing every thought to come under the authority of Christ;

bbe@2Corinthians:10:6 @Being ready to give punishment to whatever is against his authority, after you have made it clear that you are completely under his control.

bbe@2Corinthians:10:8 @For though I might take pride in our authority (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for your destruction), it will not be a cause of shame to me:

bbe@2Corinthians:10:10 @For his letters, they say, have weight and are strong; but in body he is feeble, and his way of talking has little force.

bbe@2Corinthians:10:12 @For we will not make comparison of ourselves with some of those who say good things about themselves: but these, measuring themselves by themselves, and making comparison of themselves with themselves, are not wise.

bbe@2Corinthians:10:14 @For we have no need to make ourselves seem more than we are, as if our authority did not come as far as to you: for we came even as far as you with the good news of Christ:

bbe@2Corinthians:10:15 @Not taking credit to ourselves for what is not our business, that is, for the work of others; but having hope that, with the growth of your faith, we may get the credit for an increase which is the effect of our work,

bbe@2Corinthians:10:16 @So that we may be able to go on and take the good news to countries still farther away than you are, and not take credit for another man's work in making things ready to our hand.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:1 @Put up with me if I am a little foolish: but, truly, you do put up with me.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:2 @For I have a very great care for you: because you have been married by me to one husband, and it is my desire to give you completely holy to Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:3 @But I have a fear, that in some way, as Eve was tricked by the deceit of the snake, your minds may be turned away from their simple and holy love for Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:4 @For if anyone comes preaching another Jesus from the one whose preachers we are, or if you have got a different spirit, or a different sort of good news from those which came to you, how well you put up with these things.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:7 @Or did I do wrong in making myself low so that you might be lifted up, because I gave you the good news of God without reward?

bbe@2Corinthians:11:9 @And when I was present with you, and was in need, I let no man be responsible for me; for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, gave me whatever was needed; and in everything I kept myself from being a trouble to you, and I will go on doing so.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:13 @For such men are false Apostles, workers of deceit, making themselves seem like Apostles of Christ.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:14 @And it is no wonder; for even Satan himself is able to take the form of an angel of light.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:15 @So it is no great thing if his servants make themselves seem to be servants of righteousness; whose end will be the reward of their works.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:16 @I say again, Let me not seem foolish to anyone; but if I do, put up with me as such, so that I may take a little glory to myself.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:17 @What I am now saying is not by the order of the Lord, but as a foolish person, taking credit to myself, as it seems.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:18 @Seeing that there are those who take credit to themselves after the flesh, I will do the same.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:19 @For you put up with the foolish gladly, being wise yourselves.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:20 @You put up with a man if he makes servants of you, if he makes profit out of you, if he makes you prisoners, if he puts himself in a high place, if he gives you blows on the face.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:25 @Three times I was whipped with rods, once I was stoned, three times the ship I was in came to destruction at sea, a night and a day I have been in the water;

bbe@2Corinthians:11:27 @In hard work and weariness, in frequent watchings, going without food and drink, cold and in need of clothing.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:28 @In addition to all the other things, there is that which comes on me every day, the care of all the churches.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:30 @If I have to take credit to myself, I will do so in the things in which I am feeble.

bbe@2Corinthians:11:31 @The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom be praise for ever, is witness that the things which I say are true.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:1 @As it is necessary for me to take glory to myself, though it is not a good thing, I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:6 @For if I had a desire to take credit to myself, it would not be foolish, for I would be saying what is true: but I will not, for fear that I might seem to any man more than he sees me to be, or has word from me that I am.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:8 @And about this thing I made request to the Lord three times that it might be taken away from me.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:11 @I have been forced by you to become foolish, though it was right for my praise to have come from you: for in no way was I less than the chief of the Apostles, though I am nothing.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:12 @Truly the signs of an Apostle were done among you in quiet strength, with wonders and acts of power.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:14 @This is now the third time that I am ready to come to you; and I will not be a trouble to you: my desire is for you, not for your property: for it is not the children's business to make store for their fathers, but the fathers for the children.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:16 @But let it be so, that I was not a trouble to you myself; but (someone may say) being false, I took you with deceit.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:17 @Did I make a profit out of you by any of those whom I sent to you?

bbe@2Corinthians:12:18 @I gave orders to Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus make any profit out of you? were we not guided by the same Spirit, in the same ways?

bbe@2Corinthians:12:19 @It may seem to you that all this time we have been attempting to put ourselves in the right; but we are saying these things before God in Christ. For all things, dear brothers, are for your profit.

bbe@2Corinthians:12:20 @For I have a fear that, when I come, you may not be answering to my desire, and that I may not be answering to yours; that there may be fighting, hate, angry feeling, divisions, evil talk about others, secrets, thoughts of pride, outbursts against authority;

bbe@2Corinthians:13:1 @This is the third time that I am coming to you. From the mouth of two or three witnesses will every word be made certain.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:2 @I said before, and still say it before I come, as being present for the second time, though I am still away from you, to those who have done wrong before, and to all the others, that if I come again I will not have pity;

bbe@2Corinthians:13:4 @For he was feeble in that he was put to death on the cross, but he is living by the power of God. And we are feeble in him, but we will be living with him through the power of God in relation to you.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:5 @Make a test of yourselves, if you are in the faith; make certain of yourselves. Or are you not conscious in yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you, if you are truly Christ's?

bbe@2Corinthians:13:6 @But it is my hope that you will have no doubt that we are truly Christ's.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:7 @Now our prayer to God is that you may do no evil; not in order that it may be put to our credit, but so that you may do what is right, whatever we may seem.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:8 @Because we are able to do nothing against what is true, but only for it.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:10 @For this cause I am writing these things while I am away, so that there may be need for me, when I am present, to make use of sharp measures, by the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for destruction.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:11 @Let this be my last word, brothers; be glad; be complete; be comforted; be of the same mind; be at peace with one another: and the God of love and peace will be with you.

bbe@2Corinthians:13:14 @The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the harmony of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.

bbe@Galatians:1:2 @And all the brothers who are with me, to the churches of Galatia:

bbe@Galatians:1:5 @To whom be the glory for ever and ever. So be it.

bbe@Galatians:1:10 @Am I now using arguments to men, or God? or is it my desire to give men pleasure? if I was still pleasing men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

bbe@Galatians:1:12 @For I did not get it from man, and I was not given teaching in it, but it came to me through revelation of Jesus Christ.

bbe@Galatians:1:13 @For news has come to you of my way of life in the past in the Jews' religion, how I was cruel without measure to the church of God, and did great damage to it:

bbe@Galatians:1:15 @But when it was the good pleasure of God, by whom I was marked out even from my mother's body, through his grace,

bbe@Galatians:1:18 @Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Cephas, and was there with him fifteen days.

bbe@Galatians:1:20 @Now God is witness that the things which I am writing to you are true.

bbe@Galatians:1:23 @Only it came to their ears that he who at one time was cruel to us is now preaching the faith which before had been attacked by him;

bbe@Galatians:2:1 @Then after the space of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus with me.

bbe@Galatians:2:2 @And I went up by revelation; and I put before them the good news which I was preaching among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were of good name, so that the work which I was or had been doing might not be without effect.

bbe@Galatians:2:3 @But not even Titus who was with me, being a Greek, was made to undergo circumcision:

bbe@Galatians:2:4 @And that because of the false brothers let in secretly, who came searching out our free condition which we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might make servants of us;

bbe@Galatians:2:5 @To whom we gave way not even for an hour; so that the true words of the good news might still be with you.

bbe@Galatians:2:6 @But from those who seemed to be important (whatever they were has no weight with me: God does not take man's person into account): those who seemed to be important gave nothing new to me;

bbe@Galatians:2:7 @But, quite the opposite, when they saw that I had been made responsible for preaching the good news to those without circumcision, even as Peter had been for those of the circumcision

bbe@Galatians:2:10 @Only it was their desire that we would give thought to the poor; which very thing I had much in mind to do.

bbe@Galatians:2:12 @For before certain men came from James, he did take food with the Gentiles: but when they came, he went back and made himself separate, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

bbe@Galatians:2:14 @But when I saw that they were not living uprightly in agreement with the true words of the good news, I said to Cephas before them all, If you, being a Jew, are living like the Gentiles, and not like the Jews, how will you make the Gentiles do the same as the Jews?

bbe@Galatians:2:16 @Being conscious that a man does not get righteousness by the works of the law, but through faith in Jesus Christ, we had faith in Christ Jesus, so that we might get righteousness by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the law: because by the works of the law will no flesh get righteousness.

bbe@Galatians:2:20 @I have been put to death on the cross with Christ; still I am living; no longer I, but Christ is living in me; and that life which I now am living in the flesh I am living by faith, the faith of the Son of God, who in love for me, gave himself up for me.

bbe@Galatians:3:1 @O foolish Galatians, by what strange powers have you been tricked, to whom it was made clear that Jesus Christ was put to death on the cross?

bbe@Galatians:3:2 @Give me an answer to this one question, Did the Spirit come to you through the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?

bbe@Galatians:3:3 @Are you so foolish? having made a start in the Spirit, will you now be made complete in the flesh?

bbe@Galatians:3:4 @Did you undergo such a number of things to no purpose? if it is in fact to no purpose.

bbe@Galatians:3:5 @He who gives you the Spirit, and does works of power among you, is it by the works of law, or by the hearing of faith?

bbe@Galatians:3:6 @Even as Abraham had faith in God, and it was put to his account as righteousness.

bbe@Galatians:3:7 @Be certain, then, that those who are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.

bbe@Galatians:3:8 @And the holy Writings, seeing before the event that God would give the Gentiles righteousness by faith, gave the good news before to Abraham, saying, In you will all the nations have a blessing.

bbe@Galatians:3:9 @So then those who are of faith have a part in the blessing of Abraham who was full of faith.

bbe@Galatians:3:10 @For all who are of the works of the law are under a curse: because it is said in the Writings, A curse is on everyone who does not keep on doing all the things which are ordered in the book of the law

bbe@Galatians:3:11 @Now that no man gets righteousness by the law in the eyes of God, is clear; because, The upright will be living by faith.

bbe@Galatians:3:12 @And the law is not of faith; but, He who does them will have life by them.

bbe@Galatians:3:13 @Christ has made us free from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us: because it is said in the Writings, A curse on everyone who is put to death by hanging on a tree:

bbe@Galatians:3:14 @So that on the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus; in order that we through faith might have the Spirit which God had undertaken to give.

bbe@Galatians:3:15 @Brothers, as men would say, even a man's agreement, when it has been made certain, may not be put on one side, or have additions made to it.

bbe@Galatians:3:17 @Now this I say: The law, which came four hundred and thirty years after, does not put an end to the agreement made before by God, so as to make the undertaking without effect.

bbe@Galatians:3:18 @Because if the heritage is by the law, it is no longer dependent on the word of God; but God gave it to Abraham by his word.

bbe@Galatians:3:19 @What then is the law? It was an addition made because of sin, till the coming of the seed to whom the undertaking had been given; and it was ordered through angels by the hand of a go-between.

bbe@Galatians:3:22 @However, the holy Writings have put all things under sin, so that that for which God gave the undertaking, based on faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who have such faith.

bbe@Galatians:3:23 @But before faith came, we were kept in prison under the law, waiting for the revelation of the faith which was to come.

bbe@Galatians:3:24 @So the law has been a servant to take us to Christ, so that we might have righteousness by faith.

bbe@Galatians:3:25 @But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a servant.

bbe@Galatians:3:26 @Because you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

bbe@Galatians:3:29 @And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and yours is the heritage by the right of God's undertaking given to Abraham.

bbe@Galatians:4:6 @And because you are sons, God has sent out the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, saying, Abba, Father.

bbe@Galatians:4:7 @So that you are no longer a servant, but a son; and if a son, then the heritage of God is yours.

bbe@Galatians:4:9 @But now that you have come to have knowledge of God, or more truly, God has knowledge of you, how is it that you go back again to the poor and feeble first things, desiring to be servants to them again?

bbe@Galatians:4:13 @But you have knowledge that with a feeble body I was preaching the good news to you the first time;

bbe@Galatians:4:14 @And you did not have a poor opinion of me because of the trouble in my flesh, or put shame on it; but you took me to your hearts as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.

bbe@Galatians:4:15 @Where then is that happy condition of yours? because I give you witness, that, if possible, you would have taken out your eyes and given them to me.

bbe@Galatians:4:18 @But it is good to have an interest in a good cause at all times, and not only when I am present with you.

bbe@Galatians:4:20 @Truly my desire is to be present with you now, using a changed voice; for I am troubled about you.

bbe@Galatians:4:21 @Say, you whose desire it is to be under the law, do you not give ear to the law?

bbe@Galatians:4:22 @Because it is in the Writings, that Abraham had two sons, one by the servant-woman, and one by the free woman.

bbe@Galatians:4:25 @Now this Hagar is the mountain Sinai in Arabia, and is the image of the Jerusalem which now is: which is a servant with her children.

bbe@Galatians:4:27 @For it is in the Writings, You who have never given birth, be glad; give cries of joy, you who have had no birth-pains; for the children of her who has been given up by her husband are more than those of the woman who has a husband.

bbe@Galatians:4:29 @But as in those days he who had birth after the flesh was cruel to him who had birth after the Spirit, even so it is now.

bbe@Galatians:4:30 @What then do the Writings say? Send away the servant-woman and her son; for the son of the servant-woman will not have a part in the heritage with the son of the free woman.

bbe@Galatians:5:1 @Christ has truly made us free: then keep your free condition and let no man put a yoke on you again.

bbe@Galatians:5:3 @Yes, I give witness again to every man who undergoes circumcision, that he will have to keep all the law.

bbe@Galatians:5:5 @For we through the Spirit by faith are waiting for the hope of righteousness.

bbe@Galatians:5:6 @Because in Christ Jesus, having circumcision or not having circumcision are equally of no profit; but only faith working through love.

bbe@Galatians:5:9 @A little leaven makes a change in all the mass.

bbe@Galatians:5:13 @Because you, brothers, were marked out to be free; only do not make use of your free condition to give the flesh its chance, but through love be servants one to another.

bbe@Galatians:5:15 @But if you are given to fighting with one another, take care that you are not the cause of destruction one to another.

bbe@Galatians:5:16 @But I say, Go on in the Spirit, and you will not come under the rule of the evil desires of the flesh.

bbe@Galatians:5:17 @For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; because these are opposite the one to the other; so that you may not do the things which you have a mind to do.

bbe@Galatians:5:18 @But if you are guided by the Spirit, you are not under the law.

bbe@Galatians:5:22 @But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, a quiet mind, kind acts, well-doing, faith,

bbe@Galatians:5:24 @And those who are Christ's have put to death on the cross the flesh with its passions and its evil desires.

bbe@Galatians:5:25 @If we are living by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us be guided.

bbe@Galatians:6:1 @Brothers, if a man is taken in any wrongdoing, you who are of the Spirit will put such a one right in a spirit of love; keeping watch on yourself, for fear that you yourself may be tested.

bbe@Galatians:6:8 @Because he who puts in the seed of the flesh will of the flesh get the reward of death; but he who puts in the seed of the Spirit will of the Spirit get the reward of eternal life.

bbe@Galatians:6:10 @So then, as we have the chance, let us do good to all men, and specially to those who are of the family of the faith.

bbe@Galatians:6:11 @See the size of the handwriting which I myself have made use of in writing to you.

bbe@Galatians:6:14 @But far be it from me to have glory in anything, but only in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which this world has come to an end on the cross for me, and I for it

bbe@Galatians:6:17 @From this time on let no man be a trouble to me; because my body is marked with the marks of Jesus.

bbe@Galatians:6:18 @The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. So be it.

bbe@Ephesians:1:1 @Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the purpose of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and those who have faith in Christ Jesus:

bbe@Ephesians:1:3 @Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us every blessing of the Spirit in the heavens in Christ:

bbe@Ephesians:1:5 @As we were designed before by him for the position of sons to himself, through Jesus Christ, in the good pleasure of his purpose,

bbe@Ephesians:1:9 @Having made clear to us the secret of his purpose, in agreement with the design which he had in mind, to put into his hands

bbe@Ephesians:1:11 @In whom we have a heritage, being marked out from the first in his purpose who does all things in agreement with his designs;

bbe@Ephesians:1:13 @In whom you, having been given the true word, the good news of your salvation, and through your faith in him, were given the sign of the Holy Spirit of hope,

bbe@Ephesians:1:14 @Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory.

bbe@Ephesians:1:15 @For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints,

bbe@Ephesians:1:16 @Give praise without end for you, keeping you in mind in my prayers;

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

bbe@Ephesians:1:18 @And that having the eyes of your heart full of light, you may have knowledge of what is the hope of his purpose, what is the wealth of the glory of his heritage in the saints,

bbe@Ephesians:1:19 @And how unlimited is his power to us who have faith, as is seen in the working of the strength of his power,

bbe@Ephesians:1:21 @Far over all rule and authority and power and every name which is named, not only in the present order, but in that which is to come:

bbe@Ephesians:2:2 @In which you were living in the past, after the ways of this present world, doing the pleasure of the lord of the power of the air, the spirit who is now working in those who go against the purpose of God;

bbe@Ephesians:2:3 @Among whom we all at one time were living in the pleasures of our flesh, giving way to the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and the punishment of God was waiting for us even as for the rest.

bbe@Ephesians:2:5 @Even when we were dead through our sins, gave us life together with Christ (by grace you have salvation),

bbe@Ephesians:2:6 @So that we came back from death with him, and are seated with him in the heavens, in Christ Jesus;

bbe@Ephesians:2:8 @Because by grace you have salvation through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is given by God:

bbe@Ephesians:2:11 @For this reason keep it in mind that in the past you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are looked on as being outside the circumcision by those who have circumcision, in the flesh, made by hands;

bbe@Ephesians:2:12 @That you were at that time without Christ, being cut off from any part in Israel's rights as a nation, having no part in God's agreement, having no hope, and without God in the world.

bbe@Ephesians:2:15 @Having in his flesh put an end to that which made the division between us, even the law with its rules and orders, so that he might make in himself, of the two, one new man, so making peace;

bbe@Ephesians:2:16 @And that the two might come into agreement with God in one body through the cross, so putting an end to that division.

bbe@Ephesians:2:18 @Because through him the two of us are able to come near in one Spirit to the Father.

bbe@Ephesians:2:22 @In whom you, with the rest, are united together as a living-place of God in the Spirit.

bbe@Ephesians:3:5 @Which in other generations was not given to the sons of men, but the revelation of it has now been made to his holy Apostles and prophets in the Spirit;

bbe@Ephesians:3:6 @Which is that the Gentiles have a part in the heritage, and in the same body, and in the same hope in Christ through the good news,

bbe@Ephesians:3:10 @So that now to the rulers and the authorities in the heavens might be made clear through the church the wide-shining wisdom of God,

bbe@Ephesians:3:12 @By whom we come near to God without fear through faith in him.

bbe@Ephesians:3:13 @For this reason it is my prayer that you may not become feeble because of my troubles for you, which are your glory.

bbe@Ephesians:3:16 @That in the wealth of his glory he would make you strong with power through his Spirit in your hearts;

bbe@Ephesians:3:17 @So that Christ may have his place in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and based in love,

bbe@Ephesians:3:18 @May have strength to see with all the saints how wide and long and high and deep it is,

bbe@Ephesians:3:21 @To him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations for ever and ever. So be it.

bbe@Ephesians:4:1 @I then, the prisoner in the Lord, make this request from my heart, that you will see that your behaviour is a credit to the position which God's purpose has given you,

bbe@Ephesians:4:2 @With all gentle and quiet behaviour, taking whatever comes, putting up with one another in love;

bbe@Ephesians:4:3 @Taking care to keep the harmony of the Spirit in the yoke of peace.

bbe@Ephesians:4:4 @There is one body and one Spirit, even as you have been marked out by God in the one hope of his purpose for you;

bbe@Ephesians:4:5 @One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

bbe@Ephesians:4:8 @For this reason he says, He went up on high, taking his prisoners with him, and gave freely to men.

bbe@Ephesians:4:9 @(Now this, He went up, what is it but that he first went down into the lower parts of the earth?

bbe@Ephesians:4:13 @Till we all come to the harmony of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to full growth, to the full measure of Christ:

bbe@Ephesians:4:14 @So that we may be no longer children, sent this way and that, turned about by every wind of teaching, by the twisting and tricks of men, by the deceits of error;

bbe@Ephesians:4:16 @Through whom all the body, being rightly formed and united together, by the full working of every part, is increased to the building up of itself in love.

bbe@Ephesians:4:17 @This I say, then, and give witness in the Lord, that you are to go no longer in the way of the Gentiles whose minds are turned to that which has no profit,

bbe@Ephesians:4:18 @Whose thoughts are dark, to whom the life of God is strange because they are without knowledge, and their hearts have been made hard;

bbe@Ephesians:4:19 @Who having no more power of feeling, have given themselves up to evil passions, to do all unclean things with overmuch desire.

bbe@Ephesians:4:22 @That you are to put away, in relation to your earlier way of life, the old man, which has become evil by love of deceit;

bbe@Ephesians:4:23 @And be made new in the spirit of your mind,

bbe@Ephesians:4:26 @Be angry without doing wrong; let not the sun go down on your wrath;

bbe@Ephesians:4:28 @Let him who was a thief be so no longer, but let him do good work with his hands, so that he may have something to give to him who is in need.

bbe@Ephesians:4:30 @And do not give grief to the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were marked for the day of salvation.

bbe@Ephesians:4:31 @Let all bitter, sharp and angry feeling, and noise, and evil words, be put away from you, with all unkind acts;

bbe@Ephesians:4:32 @And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.

bbe@Ephesians:5:1 @Let it then be your desire to be like God, as well-loved children;

bbe@Ephesians:5:3 @But evil acts of the flesh and all unclean things, or desire for others' property, let it not even be named among you, as is right for saints;

bbe@Ephesians:5:5 @Being certain of this, that no man who gives way to the passions of the flesh, no unclean person, or one who has desire for the property of others, or who gives worship to images, has any heritage in the kingdom of Christ and God.

bbe@Ephesians:5:7 @Have no part with such men;

bbe@Ephesians:5:9 @(Because the fruit of the light is in all righteousness and in everything which is good and true),

bbe@Ephesians:5:11 @And have no company with the works of the dark, which give no fruit, but make their true quality clear;

bbe@Ephesians:5:12 @For the things which are done by them in secret it is shame even to put into words

bbe@Ephesians:5:13 @But all things, when their true quality is seen, are made clear by the light: because everything which is made clear is light.

bbe@Ephesians:5:18 @And do not take overmuch wine by which one may be overcome, but be full of the Spirit;

bbe@Ephesians:5:19 @Joining with one another in holy songs of praise and of the Spirit, using your voice in songs and making melody in your heart to the Lord;

bbe@Ephesians:5:22 @Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as of the Lord.

bbe@Ephesians:5:24 @And as the church is under Christ's authority, so let wives be under the rule of their husbands in all things.

bbe@Ephesians:5:25 @Husbands, have love for your wives, even as Christ had love for the church, and gave himself for it;

bbe@Ephesians:5:26 @So that he might make it holy, having made it clean with the washing of water by the word,

bbe@Ephesians:5:27 @And might take it for himself, a church full of glory, not having one mark or fold or any such thing; but that it might be holy and complete.

bbe@Ephesians:5:28 @Even so it is right for husbands to have love for their wives as for their bodies. He who has love for his wife has love for himself:

bbe@Ephesians:5:29 @For no man ever had hate for his flesh; but he gives it food and takes care of it, even as Christ does for the church;

bbe@Ephesians:6:5 @Servants, do what is ordered by those who are your natural masters, having respect and fear for them, with all your heart, as to Christ;

bbe@Ephesians:6:9 @And, you masters, do the same things to them, not making use of violent words: in the knowledge that their Master and yours is in heaven, and he has no respect for a man's position.

bbe@Ephesians:6:11 @Take up God's instruments of war, so that you may be able to keep your position against all the deceits of the Evil One.

bbe@Ephesians:6:12 @For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against authorities and powers, against the world-rulers of this dark night, against the spirits of evil in the heavens.

bbe@Ephesians:6:14 @Take your place, then, having your body clothed with the true word, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness;

bbe@Ephesians:6:15 @Be ready with the good news of peace as shoes on your feet;

bbe@Ephesians:6:16 @And most of all, using faith as a cover to keep off all the flaming arrows of the Evil One.

bbe@Ephesians:6:17 @And take salvation for your head-dress and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

bbe@Ephesians:6:18 @With prayers and deep desires, making requests at all times in the Spirit, and keeping watch, with strong purpose, in prayer for all the saints,

bbe@Ephesians:6:19 @And for me, that words may be given to me in the opening of my mouth, to make clear without fear the secret of the good news,

bbe@Ephesians:6:20 @For which I am a representative in chains, and that I may say without fear the things which it is right for me to say.

bbe@Ephesians:6:22 @Whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, so that you may have knowledge of our position, and that he may give comfort to your hearts.

bbe@Ephesians:6:23 @Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Ephesians:6:24 @Grace be with all those who have true love for our Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@Philippians:1:1 @Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus at Philippi, with the Bishops and Deacons of the church:

bbe@Philippians:1:4 @And in all my prayers for you all, making my request with joy,

bbe@Philippians:1:6 @For I am certain of this very thing, that he by whom the good work was started in you will make it complete till the day of Jesus Christ:

bbe@Philippians:1:7 @So it is right for me to take thought for you all in this way, because I have you in my heart; for in my chains, and in my arguments before the judges in support of the good news, making clear that it is true, you all have your part with me in grace.

bbe@Philippians:1:8 @For God is my witness, how my love goes out to you all in the loving mercies of Christ Jesus.

bbe@Philippians:1:10 @So that you may give your approval to the best things; that you may be true and without wrongdoing till the day of Christ;

bbe@Philippians:1:11 @Being full of the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

bbe@Philippians:1:12 @Now it is my purpose to make clear to you, brothers, that the cause of the good news has been helped by my experiences;

bbe@Philippians:1:13 @So that it became clear through all the Praetorium, and to all the rest, that I was a prisoner on account of Christ;

bbe@Philippians:1:14 @And most of the brothers in the Lord, taking heart because of my chains, are all the stronger to give the word of God without fear.

bbe@Philippians:1:15 @Though some are preaching Christ out of envy and competition, others do it out of a good heart:

bbe@Philippians:1:16 @These do it from love, conscious that I am responsible for the cause of the good news:

bbe@Philippians:1:17 @But those are preaching Christ in a spirit of competition, not from their hearts, but with the purpose of giving me pain in my prison.

bbe@Philippians:1:19 @For I am conscious that this will be for my salvation, through your prayer and the giving out of the stored wealth of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,

bbe@Philippians:1:20 @In the measure of my strong hope and belief that in nothing will I be put to shame, but that without fear, as at all times, so now will Christ have glory in my body, by life or by death.

bbe@Philippians:1:21 @For to me life is Christ and death is profit.

bbe@Philippians:1:22 @But if I go on living in the flesh--if this is the fruit of my work--then I do not see what decision to make.

bbe@Philippians:1:23 @I am in a hard position between the two, having a desire to go away and be with Christ, which is very much better:

bbe@Philippians:1:25 @And being certain of this, I am conscious that I will go on, yes, and go on with you all, for your growth and joy in the faith;

bbe@Philippians:1:26 @So that your pride in me may be increased in Christ Jesus through my being present with you again.

bbe@Philippians:1:27 @Only let your behaviour do credit to the good news of Christ, so that if I come and see you or if I am away from you, I may have news of you that you are strong in one spirit, working together with one soul for the faith of the good news;

bbe@Philippians:1:29 @Because to you it has been given in the cause of Christ not only to have faith in him, but to undergo pain on his account:

bbe@Philippians:2:1 @If then there is any comfort in Christ, any help given by love, any uniting of hearts in the Spirit, any loving mercies and pity,

bbe@Philippians:2:3 @Doing nothing through envy or through pride, but with low thoughts of self let everyone take others to be better than himself;

bbe@Philippians:2:6 @To whom, though himself in the form of God, it did not seem that to take for oneself was to be like God;

bbe@Philippians:2:11 @And that every tongue may give witness that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

bbe@Philippians:2:12 @So then, my loved ones, as you have at all times done what I say, not only when I am present, but now much more when I am not with you, give yourselves to working out your salvation with fear in your hearts;

bbe@Philippians:2:13 @For it is God who is the cause of your desires and of your acts, for his good pleasure.

bbe@Philippians:2:14 @Do all things without protests and arguments;

bbe@Philippians:2:15 @So that you may be holy and gentle, children of God without sin in a twisted and foolish generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,

bbe@Philippians:2:16 @Offering the word of life; so that I may have glory in you in the day of Christ, because my running was not for nothing and my work was not without effect.

bbe@Philippians:2:17 @And even if I am offered like a drink offering, giving myself for the cause and work of your faith, I am glad and have joy with you all:

bbe@Philippians:2:22 @But his quality is clear to you; how, as a child is to its father, so he was a help to me in the work of the good news.

bbe@Philippians:2:24 @But I have faith in the Lord that I myself will come before long.

bbe@Philippians:2:25 @But it seemed to me necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, who has taken part with me in the work and in the fight, and your servant, sent by you for help in my need;

bbe@Philippians:2:26 @Because his heart was with you all, and he was greatly troubled because you had news that he was ill:

bbe@Philippians:2:29 @So take him to your hearts in the Lord with all joy, and give honour to such as he is:

bbe@Philippians:3:1 @For the rest, my brothers, be glad in the Lord. Writing the same things to you is no trouble to me, and for you it is safe.

bbe@Philippians:3:3 @For we are the circumcision, who give worship to God and have glory in Jesus Christ, and have no faith in the flesh:

bbe@Philippians:3:4 @Even though I myself might have faith in the flesh: if any other man has reason to have faith in the flesh, I have more:

bbe@Philippians:3:6 @In bitter hate I was cruel to the church; I kept all the righteousness of the law to the last detail.

bbe@Philippians:3:7 @But those things which were profit to me, I gave up for Christ.

bbe@Philippians:3:9 @And be seen in him, not having my righteousness which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:

bbe@Philippians:3:10 @That I may have knowledge of him, and of the power of his coming back from the dead, and a part with him in his pains, becoming like him in his death;

bbe@Philippians:3:13 @Brothers, it is clear to me that I have not come to that knowledge; but one thing I do, letting go those things which are past, and stretching out to the things which are before,

bbe@Philippians:3:18 @For there are those, of whom I have given you word before, and do so now with sorrow, who are haters of the cross of Christ;

bbe@Philippians:3:20 @For our country is in heaven; from where the Saviour for whom we are waiting will come, even the Lord Jesus Christ:

bbe@Philippians:4:3 @And I make request to you, true helper in my work, to see to the needs of those women who took part with me in the good news, with Clement and the rest of my brother-workers whose names are in the book of life.

bbe@Philippians:4:6 @Have no cares; but in everything with prayer and praise put your requests before God.

bbe@Philippians:4:9 @The things which came to you by my teaching and preaching, and which you saw in me, these things do, and the God of peace will be with you.

bbe@Philippians:4:10 @But I am very glad in the Lord that your care for me has come to life again; though you did in fact take thought for me, but you were not able to give effect to it

bbe@Philippians:4:12 @It is the same to me if I am looked down on or honoured; everywhere and in all things I have the secret of how to be full and how to go without food; how to have wealth and how to be in need.

bbe@Philippians:4:15 @And you have knowledge, Philippians, that when the good news first came to you, when I went away from Macedonia, no church took part with me in the business of giving to the saints, but you only;

bbe@Philippians:4:17 @Not that I am looking for an offering, but for fruit which may be put to your credit.

bbe@Philippians:4:18 @I have all things and more than enough: I am made full, having had from Epaphroditus the things which came from you, a perfume of a sweet smell, an offering well pleasing to God.

bbe@Philippians:4:20 @Now to God our Father be glory for ever and ever. So be it.

bbe@Philippians:4:21 @Give words of love to every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their love.

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

bbe@Colossians:1:4 @After hearing of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which you have for all the saints,

bbe@Colossians:1:6 @Which has come to you; and which in all the world is giving fruit and increase, as it has done in you from the day when it came to your ears and you had true knowledge of the grace of God;

bbe@Colossians:1:7 @As it was given to you by Epaphras, our well-loved helper, who is a true servant of Christ for us,

bbe@Colossians:1:8 @And who, himself, made clear to us your love in the Spirit.

bbe@Colossians:1:9 @For this reason, we, from the day when we had word of it, keep on in prayer for you, that you may be full of the knowledge of his purpose, with all wisdom and experience of the Spirit,

bbe@Colossians:1:10 @Living uprightly in the approval of the Lord, giving fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

bbe@Colossians:1:11 @Full of strength in the measure of the great power of his glory, so that you may undergo all troubles with joy;

bbe@Colossians:1:12 @Giving praise to the Father who has given us a part in the heritage of the saints in light;

bbe@Colossians:1:16 @For by him all things were made, in heaven and on earth, things seen and things unseen, authorities, lords, rulers, and powers; all things were made by him and for him;

bbe@Colossians:1:20 @Through him uniting all things with himself, having made peace through the blood of his cross; through him, I say, uniting all things which are on earth or in heaven.

bbe@Colossians:1:21 @And you, who in the past were cut off and at war with God in your minds through evil works, he has now made one

bbe@Colossians:1:22 @In the body of his flesh through death, so that you might be holy and without sin and free from all evil before him:

bbe@Colossians:1:23 @If you keep yourselves safely based in the faith, not moved from the hope of the good news which came to you, and which was given to every living being under heaven; of which I, Paul, was made a servant.

bbe@Colossians:2:1 @For it is my desire to give you news of the great fight I am making for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not seen my face in the flesh;

bbe@Colossians:2:4 @I say this so that you may not be turned away by any deceit of words.

bbe@Colossians:2:5 @For though I am not present in the flesh, still I am with you in the spirit, seeing with joy your order, and your unchanging faith in Christ.

bbe@Colossians:2:7 @Rooted and based together in him, strong in the faith which the teaching gave you, giving praise to God at all times.

bbe@Colossians:2:8 @Take care that no one takes you away by force, through man's wisdom and deceit, going after the beliefs of men and the theories of the world, and not after Christ:

bbe@Colossians:2:10 @And you are complete in him, who is the head of all rule and authority:

bbe@Colossians:2:11 @In whom you had a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;

bbe@Colossians:2:12 @Having been put to death with him in baptism, by which you came to life again with him, through faith in the working of God, who made him come back from the dead.

bbe@Colossians:2:13 @And you, being dead through your sins and the evil condition of your flesh, to you, I say, he gave life together with him, and forgiveness of all our sins;

bbe@Colossians:2:14 @Having put an end to the handwriting of the law which was against us, taking it out of the way by nailing it to his cross;

bbe@Colossians:2:15 @Having made himself free from the rule of authorities and powers, he put them openly to shame, glorying over them in it.

bbe@Colossians:2:18 @Let no man take your reward from you by consciously making little of himself and giving worship to angels; having his thoughts fixed on the things which he has seen, being foolishly lifted up in his natural mind,

bbe@Colossians:2:19 @And not joined to the Head, from whom all the body, being given strength and kept together through its joins and bands, has its growth with the increase of God.

bbe@Colossians:2:20 @If you were made free, by your death with Christ, from the rules of the world, why do you put yourselves under the authority of orders

bbe@Colossians:2:22 @(Rules which are all to come to an end with their use) after the orders and teaching of men?

bbe@Colossians:2:23 @These things seem to have a sort of wisdom in self-ordered worship and making little of oneself, and being cruel to the body, not honouring it by giving it its natural use.

bbe@Colossians:3:1 @If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.

bbe@Colossians:3:3 @For your life on earth is done, and you have a secret life with Christ in God.

bbe@Colossians:3:4 @At the coming of Christ who is our life, you will be seen with him in glory.

bbe@Colossians:3:8 @But now it is right for you to put away all these things; wrath, passion, bad feeling, curses, unclean talk;

bbe@Colossians:3:9 @Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings,

bbe@Colossians:3:11 @Where there is no Greek or Jew, no one with circumcision or without circumcision, no division between nations, no servant or free man: but Christ is all and in all.

bbe@Colossians:3:12 @As saints of God, then, holy and dearly loved, let your behaviour be marked by pity and mercy, kind feeling, a low opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, and a power of undergoing all things;

bbe@Colossians:3:15 @And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times.

bbe@Colossians:3:16 @Let the word of Christ be in you in all wealth of wisdom; teaching and helping one another with songs of praise and holy words, making melody to God with grace in your hearts.

bbe@Colossians:3:18 @Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as is right in the Lord.

bbe@Colossians:3:19 @Husbands, have love for your wives, and be not bitter against them.

bbe@Colossians:3:21 @Fathers, do not be hard on your children, so that their spirit may not be broken.

bbe@Colossians:3:22 @Servants, in all things do the orders of your natural masters; not only when their eyes are on you, as pleasers of men, but with all your heart, fearing the Lord:

bbe@Colossians:3:23 @Whatever you do, do it readily, as to the Lord and not to men;

bbe@Colossians:3:24 @Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ.

bbe@Colossians:3:25 @For the wrongdoer will have punishment for the wrong he has done, without respect for any man's position.

bbe@Colossians:4:2 @Give yourselves to prayer at all times, keeping watch with praise;

bbe@Colossians:4:4 @So that I may make it clear, as it is right for me to do.

bbe@Colossians:4:6 @Let your talk be with grace, mixed with salt, so that you may be able to give an answer to everyone.

bbe@Colossians:4:9 @And with him I have sent Onesimus, the true and well-loved brother, who is one of you. They will give you word of everything which is taking place here.

bbe@Colossians:4:13 @For I give witness of him that he has undergone much trouble for you and for those in Laodicea and in Hierapolis.

bbe@Colossians:4:18 @I, Paul, give you this word of love in my handwriting. Keep in memory that I am a prisoner. Grace be with you.

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:3 @Having ever in mind your work of faith and acts of love and the strength of your hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:5 @Because our good news came to you, not in word only, but in power, and in the Holy Spirit, so that you were completely certain of it; even as you saw what our behaviour to you was like from our love to you.

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:6 @And you took us and the Lord as your example, after the word had come to you in much trouble, with joy in the Holy Spirit;

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:7 @So that you became an example to all those who have faith in Christ in Macedonia and Achaia.

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:8 @For not only was the word of the Lord sounding out from you in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place your faith in God is made clear; so that we have no need to say anything.

bbe@1Thessalonians:1:10 @Waiting for his Son from heaven, who came back from the dead, even Jesus, our Saviour from the wrath to come.

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:1 @For you yourselves, brothers, are conscious that our coming among you was not without effect:

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:2 @But after we had first undergone much pain and been cruelly attacked as you saw, at Philippi, by the help of God we gave you the good news without fear, though everything was against us.

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:3 @For our witness does not come from error or from an unclean heart or from deceit:

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:4 @But even as the good news was given to us by the approval of God, so we give it out; not as pleasing men, but God by whom our hearts are tested.

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:5 @For it is common knowledge among you that we never made use of smooth-sounding false words, and God is witness that at no time were we secretly desiring profit for ourselves,

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:7 @But we were gentle among you, like a woman caring for her little ones:

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:10 @You are witnesses, with God, how holy and upright and free from all evil was our way of life among you who have faith;

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:11 @Even as you saw how, like a father with his children, we were teaching and comforting you all, and giving witness,

bbe@1Thessalonians:2:13 @And for this cause we still give praise to God, that, when the word came to your ears through us, you took it, not as the word of man, but, as it truly is, the word of God, which has living power in you who have faith.

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:1 @At last our desire to have news of you was so strong that, while we ourselves were waiting at Athens,

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:2 @We sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the good news of Christ, to give you strength and comfort in your faith;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:4 @And when we were with you, we said to you that trouble was before us; and so it came about, as you see.

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:5 @For this reason, when I was no longer able to keep quiet, I sent to get news of your faith, fearing that you might be tested by the Evil One and that our work might come to nothing.

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:6 @But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has given us good news of your faith and love, and that you have happy memories of us, desiring greatly to see us, even as we do to see you;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:7 @For this cause, brothers, in all our trouble and grief we were comforted about you because of your faith;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:8 @For it is life to us if you keep your faith in the Lord unchanged.

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:9 @For how great is the praise which we give to God for you, and how great the joy with which we are glad because of you before our God;

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:10 @Night and day requesting God again and again that we may see your face and make your faith complete

bbe@1Thessalonians:3:13 @So that your hearts may be strong and free from all sin before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:6 @And that no man may make attempts to get the better of his brother in business: for the Lord is the judge in all these things, as we said to you before and gave witness.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:7 @Because it is God's purpose that our way of life may be not unclean but holy.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:8 @Whoever, then, goes against this word, goes against not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:10 @And, truly, you are lovers of all the brothers in Macedonia; but it is our desire that your love may be increased still more;

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:11 @And that you may take pride in being quiet and doing your business, working with your hands as we gave you orders;

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:13 @But it is our desire, brothers, that you may be certain about those who are sleeping; so that you may have no need for sorrow, as others have who are without hope.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:14 @For if we have faith that Jesus underwent death and came back again, even so those who are sleeping will come again with him by God's power.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:16 @Because the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a word of authority, with the voice of the chief angel, with the sound of a horn: and the dead in Christ will come to life first;

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:17 @Then we who are still living will be taken up together with them into the clouds to see the Lord in the air: and so will we be for ever with the Lord.

bbe@1Thessalonians:4:18 @So then, give comfort to one another with these words.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:3 @When they say, There is peace and no danger, then sudden destruction will come on them, as birth-pains on a woman with child; and they will not be able to get away from it.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:8 @But let us, who are of the day, be serious, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and on our heads, the hope of salvation.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:14 @And our desire is that you will keep control over those whose lives are not well ordered, giving comfort to the feeble-hearted, supporting those with little strength, and putting up with much from all.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:17 @Keep on with your prayers.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:19 @Do not put out the light of the Spirit;

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:20 @Do not make little of the words of the prophets;

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:23 @And may the God of peace himself make you holy in every way; and may your spirit and soul and body be free from all sin at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@1Thessalonians:5:24 @God, by whom you have been marked out in his purpose, is unchanging and will make it complete.

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

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:3 @It is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, because of the great increase of your faith, and the wealth of your love for one another;

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:4 @So that we ourselves take pride in you in the churches of God for your untroubled mind and your faith in all the troubles and sorrows which you are going through;

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:6 @For it is an act of righteousness on God's part to give trouble as their reward to those who are troubling you,

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:7 @And to you who are troubled, rest with us, when the Lord Jesus comes from heaven with the angels of his power in flames of fire,

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:10 @At his coming, when he will have glory in his saints, and will be a cause of wonder in all those who had faith (because our witness among you had effect) in that day.

bbe@2Thessalonians:1:11 @For this reason, you are ever in our prayers, that you may seem to our God such as may have a part in his purpose and that by his power he will make all his good purpose, and the work of faith, complete;

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:1 @Now as to the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, and our meeting with him, it is our desire, my brothers,

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:2 @That you may not be moved in mind or troubled by a spirit, or by a word, or by a letter as from us, with the suggestion that the day of the Lord is even now come;

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:3 @Give no belief to false words: because there will first be a falling away from the faith, and the revelation of the man of sin, the son of destruction,

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:4 @Who puts himself against all authority, lifting himself up over all which is named God or is given worship; so that he takes his seat in the Temple of God, putting himself forward as God.

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:5 @Have you no memory of what I said when I was with you, giving you word of these things?

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:6 @And now it is clear to you what is keeping back his revelation till the time comes for him to be seen.

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:8 @And then will come the revelation of that evil one, whom the Lord Jesus will put to death with the breath of his mouth, and give to destruction by the revelation of his coming;

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:9 @Even the one whose coming is marked by the working of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders,

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:10 @And with every deceit of wrongdoing among those whose fate is destruction; because they were quite without that love of the true faith by which they might have salvation.

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:11 @And for this cause, God will give them up to the power of deceit and they will put their faith in what is false:

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:12 @So that they all may be judged, who had no faith in what is true, but took pleasure in evil.

bbe@2Thessalonians:2:13 @But it is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, loved by the Lord, because it was the purpose of God from the first that you might have salvation, being made holy by the Spirit and by faith in what is true:

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:1 @For the rest, my brothers, let there be prayer for us that the word of the Lord may go forward with increasing glory, even as it does with you;

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:2 @And that we may be made free from foolish and evil men; for not all have faith.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:4 @And we have faith in the Lord about you, that you are doing and will do the things about which we give you orders.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:5 @And may your hearts be guided by the Lord into the love of God and quiet waiting for Christ.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:6 @Now we give you orders, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from all those whose behaviour is not well ordered and in harmony with the teaching which they had from us.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:10 @For even when we were with you we gave you orders, saying, If any man does no work, let him not have food

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:11 @For it has come to our ears that there are some among you whose behaviour is uncontrolled, who do no work at all, but are over-interested in the business of others.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:16 @Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. May the Lord be with you all.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:17 @These words of love to you at the end are in my writing, Paul's writing, and this is the mark of every letter from me.

bbe@2Thessalonians:3:18 @May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

bbe@1Timothy:1:2 @To Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

bbe@1Timothy:1:3 @It was my desire, when I went on into Macedonia, that you might make a stop at Ephesus, to give orders to certain men not to put forward a different teaching,

bbe@1Timothy:1:4 @Or to give attention to stories and long lists of generations, from which come questionings and doubts, in place of God's ordered way of life which is in faith;

bbe@1Timothy:1:5 @But the effect of the order is love coming from a clean heart, and a knowledge of what is right, and true faith:

bbe@1Timothy:1:8 @We are conscious that the law is good, if a man makes a right use of it,

bbe@1Timothy:1:9 @With the knowledge that the law is made, not for the upright man, but for those who have no respect for law and order, for evil men and sinners, for the unholy and those who have no religion, for those who put their fathers or mothers to death, for takers of life,

bbe@1Timothy:1:10 @For those who go after loose women, for those with unnatural desires, for those who take men prisoners, who make false statements and false oaths, and those who do any other things against the right teaching,

bbe@1Timothy:1:13 @Though I had said violent words against God, and done cruel acts, causing great trouble: but I was given mercy, because I did it without knowledge, not having faith;

bbe@1Timothy:1:14 @And the grace of our Lord was very great, with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

bbe@1Timothy:1:15 @It is a true saying, in which all may put their faith, that Christ Jesus came into the world to give salvation to sinners, of whom I am the chief:

bbe@1Timothy:1:16 @But for this reason I was given mercy, so that in me, the chief of sinners, Jesus Christ might make clear all his mercy, as an example to those who in the future would have faith in him to eternal life.

bbe@1Timothy:1:17 @Now to the King eternal, ever-living, unseen, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. So be it.

bbe@1Timothy:1:18 @This order I give to you, Timothy my son, in harmony with the words of the prophets about you, so that by them you may be strong, fighting the good fight,

bbe@1Timothy:1:19 @Keeping faith, and being conscious of well-doing; for some, by not doing these things, have gone wrong in relation to the faith:

bbe@1Timothy:2:2 @For kings and all those in authority; so that we may have a calm and quiet life in all fear of God and serious behaviour.

bbe@1Timothy:2:6 @Who gave himself as an offering for all; witness of which was to be given at the right time;

bbe@1Timothy:2:7 @And of this I became a preacher and an Apostle (what I say is true, not false,) and a teacher of the Gentiles in the true faith.

bbe@1Timothy:2:8 @It is my desire, then, that in every place men may give themselves to prayer, lifting up holy hands, without wrath or argument.

bbe@1Timothy:2:9 @And that women may be dressed in simple clothing, with a quiet and serious air; not with twisted hair and gold or jewels or robes of great price;

bbe@1Timothy:2:10 @But clothed with good works, as is right for women who are living in the fear of God.

bbe@1Timothy:2:11 @Let a woman quietly take the place of a learner and be under authority.

bbe@1Timothy:2:12 @In my opinion it is right for a woman not to be a teacher, or to have rule over a man, but to be quiet.

bbe@1Timothy:2:14 @And Adam was not taken by deceit, but the woman, being tricked, became a wrongdoer.

bbe@1Timothy:2:15 @But if they go on in faith and love and holy self-control, she will be kept safe at the time of childbirth.

bbe@1Timothy:3:1 @This is a true saying, A man desiring the position of a Bishop has a desire for a good work.

bbe@1Timothy:3:4 @Ruling his house well, having his children under control with all serious behaviour;

bbe@1Timothy:3:9 @Keeping the secret of the faith in a heart free from sin.

bbe@1Timothy:3:13 @For those who have done good work as Deacons get for themselves a good position and become free from fear in the faith which is in Christ Jesus.

bbe@1Timothy:3:14 @I am writing these things to you, though I am hoping to come to you before long;

bbe@1Timothy:3:16 @And without argument, great is the secret of religion: He who was seen in the flesh, who was given God's approval in the spirit, was seen by the angels, of whom the good news was given among the nations, in whom the world had faith, who was taken up in glory.

bbe@1Timothy:4:1 @But the Spirit says clearly that in later times some will be turned away from the faith, giving their minds to spirits of deceit, and the teachings of evil spirits,

bbe@1Timothy:4:2 @Through the false ways of men whose words are untrue, whose hearts are burned as with a heated iron;

bbe@1Timothy:4:3 @Who keep men from being married and from taking food which God made to be taken with praise by those who have faith and true knowledge.

bbe@1Timothy:4:4 @Because everything which God has made is good, and nothing is evil, if it is taken with praise:

bbe@1Timothy:4:5 @For it is made holy by the word of God and by prayer.

bbe@1Timothy:4:6 @If you keep these things before the minds of the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, trained in the words of the faith and of the right teaching which has been your guide:

bbe@1Timothy:4:7 @But have nothing to do with unclean and foolish stories. Give yourself training in religion:

bbe@1Timothy:4:8 @For the training of the body is of profit for a little, but religion is of profit in every way, giving hope for the life which now is, and for that which is to come.

bbe@1Timothy:4:9 @This is a true saying, in which all may put their faith.

bbe@1Timothy:4:10 @And this is the purpose of all our work and our fighting, because our hope is in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, and specially of those who have faith

bbe@1Timothy:4:12 @Let no one make little of you because you are young, but be an example to the church in word, in behaviour, in love, in faith, in holy living.

bbe@1Timothy:4:13 @Till I come, give attention to the reading of the holy Writings, to comforting the saints, and to teaching.

bbe@1Timothy:4:15 @Have a care for these things; give yourself to them with all your heart, so that all may see how you go forward.

bbe@1Timothy:5:1 @Do not say sharp words to one who has authority in the church, but let your talk be as to a father, and to the younger men as to brothers:

bbe@1Timothy:5:2 @To the older women as to mothers, to the younger as to sisters, with a clean heart.

bbe@1Timothy:5:4 @But if any widow has children or children's children, let these see that it is right to take care of their family and their fathers and mothers: for this is pleasing in the eyes of God.

bbe@1Timothy:5:5 @Now she who is truly a widow and without family puts her hope in God, giving herself to prayer day and night.

bbe@1Timothy:5:8 @If anyone has no care for his family and those in his house, he is false to the faith, and is worse than one who has no faith.

bbe@1Timothy:5:10 @And if witness is given of her good works; if she has had the care of children, if she has been kind to travellers, washing the feet of the saints, helping those who are in trouble, giving herself to good works.

bbe@1Timothy:5:12 @And they are judged because they have been false to their first faith;

bbe@1Timothy:5:14 @So it is my desire that the younger widows may be married and have children, controlling their families, and giving the Evil One no chance to say anything against them,

bbe@1Timothy:5:16 @If any woman of the faith has relations who are widows, let her give them help, so that the care of them does not come on the church, and so it may give help to those who are truly widowed.

bbe@1Timothy:5:18 @For the Writings say, It is not right to keep the ox from taking the grain when he is crushing it. And, The worker has a right to his reward.

bbe@1Timothy:5:19 @Do not take as true any statement made against one in authority, but only if two or three give witness to it.

bbe@1Timothy:5:21 @I give you orders before God and Christ Jesus and the angels of God's selection, to keep these orders without giving thought to one side more than another.

bbe@1Timothy:5:22 @Do not put hands on any man without thought, and have no part in other men's sins: keep yourself clean.

bbe@1Timothy:5:23 @Do not take only water as your drink, but take a little wine for the good of your stomach, and because you are frequently ill.

bbe@1Timothy:5:24 @The sins of some men are clearly seen, going before them to be judged; but with others, their sins go after them.

bbe@1Timothy:6:2 @And let those whose masters are of the faith have respect for them because they are brothers, working for them the more readily, because those who take part in the good work are of the faith and are dear. Give orders and teaching about these things.

bbe@1Timothy:6:3 @If any man gives different teaching, not in agreement with the true words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the teaching which is in agreement with true religion,

bbe@1Timothy:6:4 @He has an over-high opinion of himself; being without knowledge, having only an unhealthy love of questionings and wars of words, from which come envy, fighting, cruel words, evil thoughts,

bbe@1Timothy:6:5 @Bitter talk of men who, being evil in mind and dead to what is true, take the faith to be a way of making profit.

bbe@1Timothy:6:6 @But true faith, with peace of mind, is of great profit:

bbe@1Timothy:6:7 @For we came into the world with nothing, and we are not able to take anything out;

bbe@1Timothy:6:10 @For the love of money is a root of all evil: and some whose hearts were fixed on it have been turned away from the faith, and been wounded with unnumbered sorrows.

bbe@1Timothy:6:11 @But you, O man of God, keep yourself from these things, and go after righteousness, religion, faith, love, a quiet mind, gentle behaviour.

bbe@1Timothy:6:12 @Be fighting the good fight of the faith; take for yourself the life eternal, for which you were marked out, and of which you gave witness in the eyes of all.

bbe@1Timothy:6:13 @I give you orders before God, the giver of life, and Christ Jesus, who before Pontius Pilate gave witness to the faith,

bbe@1Timothy:6:16 @Who only has life for ever, living in light to which no man may come near; whom no man has seen or is able to see: to whom be honour and power for ever. So be it.

bbe@1Timothy:6:18 @And to do good, having wealth in good works, being quick to give, taking part with one another;

bbe@1Timothy:6:21 @Through which some, who gave their minds to it, have been turned away from the faith. Grace be with you.

bbe@2Timothy:1:3 @I give praise to God, whose servant I have been, with a heart free from sin, from the time of my fathers, because in my prayers at all times the thought of you is with me, night and day

bbe@2Timothy:1:5 @Having in mind your true faith, which first was in your mother's mother Lois, and in your mother Eunice, and, I am certain, is now in you.

bbe@2Timothy:1:7 @For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of self-control.

bbe@2Timothy:1:8 @Have no feeling of shame, then, for the witness of our Lord or for me, his prisoner: but undergo all things for the good news in the measure of the power of God;

bbe@2Timothy:1:12 @And for which I undergo these things: but I have no feeling of shame. For I have knowledge of him in whom I have faith, and I am certain that he is able to keep that which I have given into his care till that day.

bbe@2Timothy:1:13 @Keep the form of those true words which you had from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

bbe@2Timothy:1:14 @That good thing which was given to you keep safe, through the Holy Spirit which is in us.

bbe@2Timothy:2:2 @And the things which I have said to you before a number of witnesses, give to those of the faith, so that they may be teachers of others.

bbe@2Timothy:2:3 @Be ready to do without the comforts of life, as one of the army of Christ Jesus.

bbe@2Timothy:2:4 @A fighting man, when he is with the army, keeps himself free from the business of this life so that he may be pleasing to him who has taken him into his army.

bbe@2Timothy:2:5 @And if a man takes part in a competition he does not get the crown if he has not kept the rules.

bbe@2Timothy:2:6 @It is right for the worker in the fields to be the first to take of the fruit.

bbe@2Timothy:2:8 @Keep in mind Jesus Christ, of the seed of David, who came back from the dead, as my good news gives witness:

bbe@2Timothy:2:9 @In which I put up with the hardest conditions, even prison chains, like one who has done a crime; but the word of God is not in chains.

bbe@2Timothy:2:10 @But I undergo all things for the saints, so that they may have salvation in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

bbe@2Timothy:2:11 @This is a true saying: If we undergo death with him, then will we be living with him:

bbe@2Timothy:2:12 @If we go on to the end, then we will be ruling with him: if we say we have no knowledge of him, then he will say he has no knowledge of us:

bbe@2Timothy:2:13 @If we are without faith, still he keeps faith, for he will never be untrue to himself.

bbe@2Timothy:2:14 @Put these things before them, giving them orders in the name of the Lord to keep themselves from fighting about words, which is of no profit, only causing error in their hearers.

bbe@2Timothy:2:15 @Let it be your care to get the approval of God, as a workman who has no cause for shame, giving the true word in the right way.

bbe@2Timothy:2:18 @Men whose ideas are all false, who say that the coming back from the dead has even now taken place, overturning the faith of some.

bbe@2Timothy:2:20 @Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but others of wood and earth, and some which are honoured and some without honour.

bbe@2Timothy:2:22 @But keep yourself from those desires of the flesh which are strong when the body is young, and go after righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those whose prayers go up to the Lord from a clean heart.

bbe@2Timothy:2:24 @For it is not right for the Lord's servant to make trouble, but he is to be gentle to all, ready in teaching, putting up with wrong,

bbe@2Timothy:3:2 @For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, uplifted in pride, given to bitter words, going against the authority of their fathers, never giving praise, having no religion,

bbe@2Timothy:3:3 @Without natural love, bitter haters, saying evil of others, violent and uncontrolled, hating all good,

bbe@2Timothy:3:4 @False to their friends, acting without thought, lifted up in mind, loving pleasure more than God;

bbe@2Timothy:3:5 @Having a form of religion, but turning their backs on the power of it: go not with these.

bbe@2Timothy:3:6 @For these are they who go secretly into houses, making prisoners of foolish women, weighted down with sin, turned from the way by their evil desires,

bbe@2Timothy:3:8 @And as James and Jambres went against Moses, so do these go against what is true: men of evil minds, who, tested by faith, are seen to be false.

bbe@2Timothy:3:10 @But you took as your example my teaching, behaviour, purpose, and faith; my long waiting, my love, my quiet undergoing of trouble;

bbe@2Timothy:3:13 @Evil and false men will become worse and worse, using deceit and themselves overcome by deceit.

bbe@2Timothy:3:15 @And that from the time when you were a child, you have had knowledge of the holy Writings, which are able to make you wise to salvation, through faith in Christ Jesus.

bbe@2Timothy:3:16 @Every holy Writing which comes from God is of profit for teaching, for training, for guiding, for education in righteousness:

bbe@2Timothy:4:2 @Be preaching the word at all times, in every place; make protests, say sharp words, give comfort, with long waiting and teaching;

bbe@2Timothy:4:5 @But be self-controlled in all things, do without comfort, go on preaching the good news, completing the work which has been given you to do.

bbe@2Timothy:4:7 @I have made a good fight, I have come to the end of my journey, I have kept the faith:

bbe@2Timothy:4:10 @For Demas has gone away from me, for love of this present life, and has gone to Thessalonica: Crescens has gone to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia

bbe@2Timothy:4:11 @Only Luke is with me. Get Mark and take him with you; for he is of use to me in the work.

bbe@2Timothy:4:13 @The coat which I did not take from Troas and which is with Carpus, get when you come, and the books, specially the papers.

bbe@2Timothy:4:16 @At my first meeting with my judges, no one took my part, but all went away from me. May it not be put to their account.

bbe@2Timothy:4:18 @The Lord will keep me safe from every evil work and will give me salvation in his kingdom in heaven: to whom be glory for ever and ever. So be it.

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

bbe@Titus:1:1 @Paul, a servant of God, and an Apostle of Jesus Christ, in agreement with the faith of the saints of God and the full knowledge of what is true in harmony with religion,

bbe@Titus:1:2 @In the hope of eternal life, which was made certain before eternal time, by the word of God who is ever true;

bbe@Titus:1:3 @Who, in his time, made clear his word in the good news, of which, by the order of God our Saviour, I became a preacher;

bbe@Titus:1:4 @To Titus, my true child in our common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.

bbe@Titus:1:5 @I did not take you with me when I went away from Crete, so that you might do what was necessary to put things in order there, placing men in authority over the churches in every town, as I said to you;

bbe@Titus:1:6 @Men having a good record, husbands of one wife, whose children are of the faith, children of whom it may not be said that they are given to loose living or are uncontrolled.

bbe@Titus:1:7 @For it is necessary for a Bishop to be a man of virtue, as God's servant; not pushing himself forward, not quickly moved to wrath or blows, not desiring profit for himself;

bbe@Titus:1:8 @But opening his house freely to guests; a lover of what is good, serious-minded, upright, holy, self-controlled;

bbe@Titus:1:9 @Keeping to the true word of the teaching, so that he may be able to give comfort by right teaching and overcome the arguments of the doubters.

bbe@Titus:1:10 @For there are men who are not ruled by law; foolish talkers, false teachers, specially those of the circumcision,

bbe@Titus:1:11 @By whom some families have been completely overturned; who take money for teaching things which are not right; these will have to be stopped.

bbe@Titus:1:12 @One of their prophets has said, The men of Crete are ever false, evil beasts, lovers of food, hating work.

bbe@Titus:1:13 @This witness is true. So say sharp words to them so that they may come to the right faith,

bbe@Titus:1:14 @Giving no attention to the fictions of the Jews and the rules of men who have no true knowledge.

bbe@Titus:1:15 @To the clean in heart all things are clean: but to those who are unclean and without faith nothing is clean; they become unclean in mind and in thought.

bbe@Titus:1:16 @They say that they have knowledge of God, while by their acts they are turning their backs on him; they are hated by all, hard-hearted, and judged to be without value for any good work.

bbe@Titus:2:1 @But let your words be in agreement with true and right teaching:

bbe@Titus:2:2 @That old men are to be simple in their tastes, serious, wise, true in faith, in love, and of a quiet mind.

bbe@Titus:2:3 @That old women are to be self-respecting in behaviour, not saying evil of others, not given to taking much wine, teachers of that which is good,

bbe@Titus:2:4 @Training the younger women to have love for their husbands and children,

bbe@Titus:2:5 @To be wise in mind, clean in heart, kind; working in their houses, living under the authority of their husbands; so that no evil may be said of the word of God.

bbe@Titus:2:6 @To the young men give orders to be wise and serious-minded:

bbe@Titus:2:7 @In all things see that you are an example of good works; holy in your teaching, serious in behaviour,

bbe@Titus:2:8 @Saying true and right words, against which no protest may be made, so that he who is not on our side may be put to shame, unable to say any evil of us.

bbe@Titus:2:9 @Servants are to be under the authority of their masters, pleasing them in all things, without argument;

bbe@Titus:2:10 @Not taking what is not theirs, but giving clear signs of their good faith, in all things doing credit to the teaching of God our Saviour.

bbe@Titus:2:11 @For the grace of God has come, giving salvation to all men,

bbe@Titus:2:12 @Training us so that, turning away from evil and the desires of this world, we may be living wisely and uprightly in the knowledge of God in this present life;

bbe@Titus:2:13 @Looking for the glad hope, the revelation of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ;

bbe@Titus:2:14 @Who gave himself for us, so that he might make us free from all wrongdoing, and make for himself a people clean in heart and on fire with good works.

bbe@Titus:2:15 @On all these points give teaching and help, and make clear what is right with all authority. Let all men give you honour.

bbe@Titus:3:1 @Make clear to them that they are to put themselves under rulers and authorities, to do what they are ordered, to be ready for every good work,

bbe@Titus:3:2 @To say no evil of any man, not to be fighters, to give way to others, to be gentle in behaviour to all men.

bbe@Titus:3:3 @For in the past we were foolish, hard in heart, turned from the true way, servants of evil desires and pleasures, living in bad feeling and envy, hated and hating one another.

bbe@Titus:3:4 @But when the mercy of God our Saviour, and his love to man was seen,

bbe@Titus:3:5 @Not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but in the measure of his mercy, he gave us salvation, through the washing of the new birth and the giving of new life in the Holy Spirit,

bbe@Titus:3:6 @Which he gave us freely through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

bbe@Titus:3:7 @So that, having been given righteousness through grace, we might have a part in the heritage, the hope of eternal life.

bbe@Titus:3:8 @This is a true saying; and it is my desire that you may give certain witness about these things, so that those who have had faith in God may give attention to good works. These things are good and of profit to men;

bbe@Titus:3:9 @But have nothing to do with foolish questionings, and lists of generations, and fights and arguments about the law; for they are of no profit and foolish.

bbe@Titus:3:10 @A man whose opinions are not those of the church, after a first and second protest, is to be kept out of your society;

bbe@Titus:3:11 @Clearly he is in error and a sinner, being self-judged.

bbe@Titus:3:12 @When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicopolis: for it is my purpose to be there for the winter.

bbe@Titus:3:13 @Send Zenas, the man of law, and Apollos on their journey with all care, so that they may be in need of nothing.

bbe@Titus:3:14 @And let our people go on with good works for necessary purposes, so that they may not be without fruit.

bbe@Titus:3:15 @All who are with me send you their love. Give our love to our friends in the faith. Grace be with you all.

bbe@Philemon:1:1 @Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our dear helper in the faith,

bbe@Philemon:1:5 @Hearing of the love and the faith which you have to the Lord Jesus and to all the saints;

bbe@Philemon:1:6 @That the faith which you have in common with them may be working with power, in the knowledge of every good thing in you, for Christ.

bbe@Philemon:1:11 @Who in the past was of no profit to you, but now is of profit to you and to me:

bbe@Philemon:1:13 @Though my desire was to keep him with me, to be my servant in the chains of the good news, in your place:

bbe@Philemon:1:14 @But without your approval I would do nothing; so that your good works might not be forced, but done freely from your heart.

bbe@Philemon:1:15 @For it is possible that for this reason he was parted from you for a time, so that you might have him for ever;

bbe@Philemon:1:18 @If he has done you any wrong or is in debt to you for anything, put it to my account.

bbe@Philemon:1:19 @I, Paul, writing this myself, say, I will make payment to you: and I do not say to you that you are in debt to me even for your life.

bbe@Philemon:1:21 @Being certain that you will do my desire, I am writing to you, in the knowledge that you will do even more than I say.

bbe@Philemon:1:25 @The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. So be it.

bbe@Hebrews:1:2 @But now, at the end of these days, it has come to us through his Son, to whom he has given all things for a heritage, and through whom he made the order of the generations;

bbe@Hebrews:1:4 @Having become by so much better than the angels, as the name which is his heritage is more noble than theirs.

bbe@Hebrews:1:9 @You have been a lover of righteousness and a hater of evil; and so God, your God, has put the oil of joy on your head more than on the heads of those who are with you.

bbe@Hebrews:1:10 @You, Lord, at the first did put the earth on its base, and the heavens are the works of your hands:

bbe@Hebrews:1:14 @Are they not all helping spirits, who are sent out as servants to those whose heritage will be salvation?

bbe@Hebrews:2:2 @Because if the word which came through the angels was fixed, and in the past every evil act against God's orders was given its full punishment;

bbe@Hebrews:2:4 @And God was a witness with them, by signs and wonders, and by more than natural powers, and by his distribution of the Holy Spirit at his pleasure.

bbe@Hebrews:2:5 @For he did not make the angels rulers over the world to come, of which I am writing.

bbe@Hebrews:2:6 @But a certain writer has given his witness, saying, What is man, that you keep him in mind? what is the son of man, that you take him into account?

bbe@Hebrews:2:7 @You made him a little lower than the angels; you gave him a crown of glory and honour, and made him ruler over all the works of your hands:

bbe@Hebrews:2:8 @You put all things under his feet. For in making man the ruler over all things, God did not put anything outside his authority; though we do not see everything under him now.

bbe@Hebrews:2:9 @But we see him who was made a little lower than the angels, even Jesus, crowned with glory and honour, because he let himself be put to death so that by the grace of God he might undergo death for all men.

bbe@Hebrews:2:10 @Because it was right for him, for whom and through whom all things have being, in guiding his sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation complete through pain.

bbe@Hebrews:2:11 @For he who makes holy and those who are made holy are all of one family; and for this reason it is no shame for him to give them the name of brothers,

bbe@Hebrews:2:13 @And again he says, I will put my faith in him. And again, See, I am here, and the children which God has given to me.

bbe@Hebrews:2:17 @Because of this it was necessary for him to be made like his brothers in every way, so that he might be a high priest full of mercy and keeping faith in everything to do with God, making offerings for the sins of the people.

bbe@Hebrews:3:1 @For this reason, holy brothers, marked out to have a part in heaven, give thought to Jesus the representative and high priest of our faith;

bbe@Hebrews:3:2 @Who kept faith with God who gave him his place, even as Moses did in all his house.

bbe@Hebrews:3:3 @And it was right for this man to have more honour than Moses, even as the builder of a house has more honour than the house.

bbe@Hebrews:3:5 @And Moses certainly kept faith as a servant, in all his house, and as a witness of those things which were to be said later;

bbe@Hebrews:3:7 @And so, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if you let his voice come to your ears,

bbe@Hebrews:3:10 @So that I was angry with this generation, and I said, Their hearts are in error at all times, and they have no knowledge of my ways;

bbe@Hebrews:3:12 @My brothers, take care that there is not by chance in any one of you an evil heart without belief, turning away from the living God:

bbe@Hebrews:3:13 @But give comfort to one another every day as long as it is still Today; so that no one among you may be made hard by the deceit of sin:

bbe@Hebrews:3:14 @For if we keep the substance of the faith which we had at the start, even till the end, we have a part with Christ;

bbe@Hebrews:3:15 @As it is said, Today if you will let his voice come to your ears, be not hard of heart, as when you made him angry.

bbe@Hebrews:3:16 @Who made him angry when his voice came to them? was it not all those who came out of Egypt with Moses?

bbe@Hebrews:3:17 @And with whom was he angry for forty years? was it not with those who did evil, who came to their deaths in the waste land?

bbe@Hebrews:3:18 @And to whom did he make an oath that they might not come into his rest? was it not to those who went against his orders?

bbe@Hebrews:4:2 @And, truly, the good news came to us, even as it did to them; but the hearing of the word did them no good, because they were not united in faith with the true hearers.

bbe@Hebrews:4:6 @So that as it is clear that some have to go in, and that the first hearers of the good news were not able to go in because they went against God's orders,

bbe@Hebrews:4:12 @For the word of God is living and full of power, and is sharper than any two-edged sword, cutting through and making a division even of the soul and the spirit, the bones and the muscles, and quick to see the thoughts and purposes of the heart.

bbe@Hebrews:4:13 @And there is nothing made which is not completely clear to him; there is nothing covered, but all things are open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

bbe@Hebrews:4:14 @Having then a great high priest, who has made his way through the heavens, even Jesus the Son of God, let us be strong in our faith.

bbe@Hebrews:4:15 @For we have not a high priest who is not able to be touched by the feelings of our feeble flesh; but we have one who has been tested in all points as we ourselves are tested, but without sin.

bbe@Hebrews:4:16 @Then let us come near to the seat of grace without fear, so that mercy may be given to us, and we may get grace for our help in time of need.

bbe@Hebrews:5:1 @Every high priest who is taken from among men is given his position to take care of the interests of men in those things which have to do with God, so that he may make offerings for sins.

bbe@Hebrews:5:4 @And no man who is not given authority by God, as Aaron was, takes this honour for himself.

bbe@Hebrews:5:5 @In the same way Christ did not take for himself the glory of being made a high priest, but was given it by him who said, You are my Son, this day I have given you being:

bbe@Hebrews:5:7 @Who in the days of his flesh, having sent up prayers and requests with strong crying and weeping to him who was able to give him salvation from death, had his prayer answered because of his fear of God.

bbe@Hebrews:5:8 @And though he was a Son, through the pain which he underwent, the knowledge came to him of what it was to be under God's orders;

bbe@Hebrews:5:11 @Of whom we have much to say which it is hard to make clear, because you are slow of hearing.

bbe@Hebrews:5:12 @And though by this time it would be right for you to be teachers, you still have need of someone to give you teaching about the first simple rules of God's revelation; you have become like babies who have need of milk, and not of solid food

bbe@Hebrews:5:13 @For everyone who takes milk is without experience of the word of righteousness: he is a child.

bbe@Hebrews:6:1 @For this reason let us go on from the first things about Christ to full growth; not building again that on which it is based, that is, the turning of the heart from dead works, and faith in God,

bbe@Hebrews:6:4 @As for those who at one time saw the light, tasting the good things from heaven, and having their part in the Holy Spirit,

bbe@Hebrews:6:5 @With knowledge of the good word of God, and of the powers of the coming time,

bbe@Hebrews:6:6 @And then let themselves be turned away, it is not possible for their hearts to be made new a second time; because they themselves put the Son of God on the cross again, openly shaming him.

bbe@Hebrews:6:7 @For a land, drinking in the frequent rain and producing good plants for those for whom it is worked, has a blessing from God:

bbe@Hebrews:6:8 @But if it sends up thorns and evil plants, it is of no use and is ready to be cursed; its only end is to be burned.

bbe@Hebrews:6:9 @But, my loved ones, though we say this, we are certain that you have better things in you, things which go with salvation;

bbe@Hebrews:6:11 @And it is our desire that you may all keep the same high purpose in certain hope to the end:

bbe@Hebrews:6:12 @So that you may not be slow in heart, but may take as your example those to whom God has given their heritage, because of their faith and their long waiting.

bbe@Hebrews:6:13 @For when God made his oath to Abraham, because there was no greater oath, he made it by himself,

bbe@Hebrews:6:15 @And so, when he had been waiting calmly for a long time, God's word to him was put into effect.

bbe@Hebrews:6:17 @So that when it was God's desire to make it specially clear to those who by his word were to have the heritage, that his purpose was fixed, he made it more certain with an oath;

bbe@Hebrews:6:18 @So that we, who have gone in flight from danger to the hope which has been put before us, may have a strong comfort in two unchanging things, in which it is not possible for God to be false;

bbe@Hebrews:7:2 @And to whom Abraham gave a tenth part of everything which he had, being first named King of righteousness, and then in addition, King of Salem, that is to say, King of peace;

bbe@Hebrews:7:3 @Being without father or mother, or family, having no birth or end to his life, being made like the Son of God, is a priest for ever.

bbe@Hebrews:7:5 @And it is true that by the law, those of the sons of Levi who have the position of priests may take a tenth part of the people's goods; that is to say, they take it from their brothers though these are the sons of Abraham.

bbe@Hebrews:7:8 @Now at the present time, men over whom death has power take the tenth; but then it was taken by one of whom it is witnessed that he is living.

bbe@Hebrews:7:9 @And we may say that in Abraham, even Levi, who has a right to take the tenth part, gave it;

bbe@Hebrews:7:11 @Now if it was possible for things to be made complete through the priests of the house of Levi (for the law was given to the people in connection with them), what need was there for another priest who was of the order of Melchizedek and not of the order of Aaron?

bbe@Hebrews:7:12 @Because if the priests are changed, it is necessary to make a change in the law.

bbe@Hebrews:7:14 @Because it is clear that our Lord comes out of Judah, and Moses said nothing about priests from that tribe.

bbe@Hebrews:7:16 @That is to say, not made by a law based on the flesh, but by the power of a life without end:

bbe@Hebrews:7:17 @For it has been witnessed of him, You are a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.

bbe@Hebrews:7:18 @So the law which went before is put on one side, because it was feeble and without profit.

bbe@Hebrews:7:19 @(Because the law made nothing complete), and in its place there is a better hope, through which we come near to God.

bbe@Hebrews:7:20 @And as this is not without the taking of an oath

bbe@Hebrews:7:21 @(For those were made priests without an oath, but this one was made a priest with an oath by him who says of him, The Lord gave his oath, which he will not take back, that you are a priest for ever);

bbe@Hebrews:7:22 @By so much is it a better agreement which we have through Jesus.

bbe@Hebrews:7:23 @And it is true that there have been a great number of those priests, because death does not let them go on for ever;

bbe@Hebrews:7:26 @It was right for us to have such a high priest, one who is holy and without evil, doing no wrong, having no part with sinners, and made higher than the heavens:

bbe@Hebrews:7:28 @The law makes high priests of men who are feeble; but the word of the oath, which was made after the law, gives that position to a Son, in whom all good is for ever complete.

bbe@Hebrews:8:3 @Now every high priest is given authority to take to God the things which are given and to make offerings; so that it is necessary for this man, like them, to have something for an offering.

bbe@Hebrews:8:6 @But now his position as priest is higher. because through him God has made a better agreement with man, based on the giving of better things.

bbe@Hebrews:8:8 @For, protesting against them, he says, See, the days are coming when I will make a new agreement with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah;

bbe@Hebrews:8:9 @Not like the agreement which I made with their fathers when I took them by the hand, to be their guide out of the land of Egypt; for they did not keep the agreement with me, and I gave them up, says the Lord.

bbe@Hebrews:8:10 @For this is the agreement which I will make with the people of Israel after those days: I will put my laws into their minds, writing them in their hearts: and I will be their God, and they will be my people:

bbe@Hebrews:9:1 @Now the first agreement had its rules of worship, and a holy order.

bbe@Hebrews:9:2 @For the first Tent was made ready, having in it the vessels for the lights and the table and the ordering of the bread; and this is named the holy place.

bbe@Hebrews:9:4 @Having a vessel of gold in it for burning perfumes, and the ark of the agreement, which was covered with gold and which had in it a pot made of gold for the manna, and Aaron's rod which put out buds, and the stones with the writing of the agreement;

bbe@Hebrews:9:5 @And over it were the winged ones of glory with their wings covering the mercy-seat; about which it is not possible now to say anything in detail.

bbe@Hebrews:9:7 @But only the high priest went into the second, once a year, not without making an offering of blood for himself and for the errors of the people:

bbe@Hebrews:9:8 @The Holy Spirit witnessing by this that the way into the holy place had not at that time been made open, while the first Tent was still in being;

bbe@Hebrews:9:11 @But now Christ has come as the high priest of the good things of the future, through this greater and better Tent, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this world,

bbe@Hebrews:9:14 @How much more will the blood of Christ, who, being without sin, made an offering of himself to God through the Holy Spirit, make your hearts clean from dead works to be servants of the living God?

bbe@Hebrews:9:15 @And for this cause it is through him that a new agreement has come into being, so that after the errors under the first agreement had been taken away by his death, the word of God might have effect for those who were marked out for an eternal heritage.

bbe@Hebrews:9:16 @Because where there is a testament, there has to be the death of the man who made it.

bbe@Hebrews:9:17 @For a testament has effect after death; for what power has it while the man who made it is living?

bbe@Hebrews:9:18 @So that even the first agreement was not made without blood.

bbe@Hebrews:9:19 @For when Moses had given all the rules of the law to the people, he took the blood of goats and young oxen, with water and red wool and hyssop, and put it on the book itself and on all the people,

bbe@Hebrews:9:20 @Saying, This blood is the sign of the agreement which God has made with you

bbe@Hebrews:9:22 @And by the law almost all things are made clean with blood, and without blood there is no forgiveness.

bbe@Hebrews:9:23 @For this cause it was necessary to make the copies of the things in heaven clean with these offerings; but the things themselves are made clean with better offerings than these.

bbe@Hebrews:9:24 @For Christ did not go into a holy place which had been made by men's hands as the copy of the true one; but he went into heaven itself, and now takes his place before the face of God for us.

bbe@Hebrews:9:25 @And he did not have to make an offering of himself again and again, as the high priest goes into the holy place every year with blood which is not his;

bbe@Hebrews:9:28 @So Christ, having at his first coming taken on himself the sins of men, will be seen a second time, without sin, by those who are waiting for him, for their salvation.

bbe@Hebrews:10:1 @For the law, being only a poor copy of the future good things, and not the true image of those things, is never able to make the people who come to the altar every year with the same offerings completely clean.

bbe@Hebrews:10:4 @Because it is not possible for the blood of oxen and goats to take away sins.

bbe@Hebrews:10:7 @Then I said, See, I have come to do your pleasure, O God (as it is said of me in the roll of the book).

bbe@Hebrews:10:13 @And has been waiting there from that time, till all who are against him are made a foot-rest for his feet.

bbe@Hebrews:10:15 @And the Holy Spirit is a witness for us: for after he had said,

bbe@Hebrews:10:16 @This is the agreement which I will make with them after those days, says the Lord; I will put my laws in their hearts, writing them in their minds; he said,

bbe@Hebrews:10:19 @So then, my brothers, being able to go into the holy place without fear, because of the blood of Jesus,

bbe@Hebrews:10:22 @Let us go in with true hearts, in certain faith, having our hearts made free from the sense of sin and our bodies washed with clean water:

bbe@Hebrews:10:23 @Let us keep the witness of our hope strong and unshaking, for he is true who has given his word:

bbe@Hebrews:10:25 @Not giving up our meetings, as is the way of some, but keeping one another strong in faith; and all the more because you see the day coming near.

bbe@Hebrews:10:28 @A man who has gone against the law of Moses is put to death without pity on the word of two or three witnesses:

bbe@Hebrews:10:29 @But will not the man by whom the Son of God has been crushed under foot, and the blood of the agreement with which he was washed clean has been taken as an unholy thing, and who has had no respect for the Spirit of grace, be judged bad enough for a very much worse punishment?

bbe@Hebrews:10:33 @In part, in being attacked by angry words and cruel acts, before the eyes of everyone, and in part, in being united with those who were attacked in this way.

bbe@Hebrews:10:34 @For you had pity on those who were in prison, and had joy in the loss of your property, in the knowledge that you still had a better property and one which you would keep for ever.

bbe@Hebrews:10:36 @For, having done what was right in God's eyes, you have need of waiting before his word has effect for you.

bbe@Hebrews:10:37 @In a very little time he who is coming will come; he will not be slow.

bbe@Hebrews:10:38 @But the upright man will be living by his faith; and if he goes back, my soul will have no pleasure in him.

bbe@Hebrews:10:39 @But we are not of those who go back to destruction; but of those who have faith even to the salvation of the soul.

bbe@Hebrews:11:1 @Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, and the sign that the things not seen are true.

bbe@Hebrews:11:2 @For by it our fathers had God's approval.

bbe@Hebrews:11:3 @By faith it is clear to us that the order of events was fixed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made from things which only seem to be.

bbe@Hebrews:11:4 @By faith Abel made a better offering to God than Cain, and he had witness through it of his righteousness, God giving his approval of his offering: and his voice still comes to us through it though he is dead.

bbe@Hebrews:11:5 @By faith Enoch was taken up to heaven so that he did not see death; he was seen no longer, for God took him away: for before he was taken, witness had been given that he was well-pleasing to God:

bbe@Hebrews:11:6 @And without faith it is not possible to be well-pleasing to him, for it is necessary for anyone who comes to God to have the belief that God is, and that he is a rewarder of all those who make a serious search for him.

bbe@Hebrews:11:7 @By faith Noah, being moved by the fear of God, made ready an ark for the salvation of his family, because God had given him news of things which were not seen at the time; and through it the world was judged by him, and he got for his heritage the righteousness which is by faith.

bbe@Hebrews:11:8 @By faith Abraham did as God said when he was ordered to go out into a place which was to be given to him as a heritage, and went out without knowledge of where he was going.

bbe@Hebrews:11:9 @By faith he was a wanderer in the land of the agreement, as in a strange land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, who had a part with him in the same heritage:

bbe@Hebrews:11:11 @And by faith Sarah herself had power to give birth, when she was very old, because she had faith in him who gave his word;

bbe@Hebrews:11:13 @All these came to their end in faith, not having had the heritage; but having seen it with delight far away, they gave witness that they were wanderers and not of the earth.

bbe@Hebrews:11:14 @For those who say such things make it clear that they are searching for a country for themselves.

bbe@Hebrews:11:16 @But now their desire is for a better country, that is to say, for one in heaven; and so it is no shame to God to be named their God; for he has made ready a town for them.

bbe@Hebrews:11:17 @By faith Abraham made an offering of Isaac, when he was tested: and he with whom the agreement had been made gave up as an offering the only son of his body,

bbe@Hebrews:11:18 @Of whom it had been said, From Isaac will your seed take their name:

bbe@Hebrews:11:20 @By faith Isaac, blessing Jacob and Esau, gave news of things to come.

bbe@Hebrews:11:21 @By faith Jacob gave a blessing to the two sons of Joseph, when he was near to death; and gave God worship, supported by his stick.

bbe@Hebrews:11:22 @By faith Joseph, when his end was near, said that the children of Israel would go out of Egypt; and gave orders about his bones.

bbe@Hebrews:11:23 @By faith Moses was kept secretly by his father and mother for three months after his birth, because they saw that he was a fair child; and they had no fear of the king's orders.

bbe@Hebrews:11:24 @By faith Moses, when he became a man, had no desire to be named the son of Pharaoh's daughter;

bbe@Hebrews:11:25 @Feeling that it was better to undergo pain with the people of God, than for a short time to have a taste of the pleasures of sin;

bbe@Hebrews:11:27 @By faith he went out of Egypt, not being turned from his purpose by fear of the wrath of the king; for he kept on his way, as seeing him who is unseen.

bbe@Hebrews:11:28 @By faith he kept the Passover, and put the sign of the blood on the houses, so that the angel of destruction might not put their oldest sons to death.

bbe@Hebrews:11:29 @By faith they went through the Red Sea as if it had been dry land, though the Egyptians were overcome by the water when they made an attempt to do the same.

bbe@Hebrews:11:30 @By faith the walls of Jericho came down, after they had been circled for seven days.

bbe@Hebrews:11:31 @By faith Rahab, the loose woman, was not put to death with those who had gone against God's orders, because she had taken into her house in peace those sent to see the land.

bbe@Hebrews:11:33 @Who through faith overcame kingdoms, did righteousness, got their reward, kept the mouths of lions shut,

bbe@Hebrews:11:36 @And others were tested by being laughed at or by blows, and even with chains and prisons:

bbe@Hebrews:11:37 @They were stoned, they were cut up with knives, they were tested, they were put to death with the sword, they went about in sheepskins and in goatskins; being poor and in pain and cruelly attacked,

bbe@Hebrews:11:39 @And not one of these got the good things of the agreement, though they all had a good record through faith,

bbe@Hebrews:11:40 @Because God had kept some better thing for us, so that it was not possible for them to become complete without us.

bbe@Hebrews:12:1 @For this reason, as we are circled by so great a cloud of witnesses, putting off every weight, and the sin into which we come so readily, let us keep on running in the way which is marked out for us,

bbe@Hebrews:12:2 @Having our eyes fixed on Jesus, the guide and end of our faith, who went through the pains of the cross, not caring for the shame, because of the joy which was before him, and who has now taken his place at the right hand of God's seat of power.

bbe@Hebrews:12:5 @And you have not kept in mind the word which says to you as to sons, My son, do not make little of the Lord's punishment, and do not give up hope when you are judged by him;

bbe@Hebrews:12:7 @It is for your training that you undergo these things; God is acting to you as a father does to his sons; for what son does not have punishment from his father?

bbe@Hebrews:12:9 @And again, if the fathers of our flesh gave us punishment and had our respect, how much more will we be under the authority of the Father of spirits, and have life?

bbe@Hebrews:12:10 @For they truly gave us punishment for a short time, as it seemed good to them; but he does it for our profit, so that we may become holy as he is.

bbe@Hebrews:12:11 @At the time all punishment seems to be pain and not joy: but after, those who have been trained by it get from it the peace-giving fruit of righteousness.

bbe@Hebrews:12:14 @Let your desire be for peace with all men, and to be made holy, without which no man may see the Lord;

bbe@Hebrews:12:15 @Looking with care to see that no man among you in his behaviour comes short of the grace of God; for fear that some bitter root may come up to be a trouble to you, and that some of you may be made unclean by it;

bbe@Hebrews:12:16 @And that there may not be any evil liver, or any man without respect for God, like Esau, who let his birthright go for a plate of food.

bbe@Hebrews:12:17 @For you have knowledge that even long after, when he was desiring the blessing for his heritage, he was turned away, though he made his request frequently and with weeping; because the past might not be changed.

bbe@Hebrews:12:18 @You have not come to a mountain which may be touched, and is burning with fire, and to a black cloud, and a dark smoke, and a violent wind,

bbe@Hebrews:12:23 @To the great meeting and church of the first of those who are named in heaven, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of good men made complete,

bbe@Hebrews:12:27 @And the words, Still one more, make it clear that there will be a taking away of those things which are shaking, as of things which are made, so that there may be only those things of which no shaking is possible.

bbe@Hebrews:12:28 @If then, we have a kingdom which will never be moved, let us have grace, so that we may give God such worship as is pleasing to him with fear and respect:

bbe@Hebrews:13:1 @Go on loving your brothers in the faith.

bbe@Hebrews:13:2 @Take care to keep open house: because in this way some have had angels as their guests, without being conscious of it.

bbe@Hebrews:13:3 @Keep in mind those who are in chains, as if you were chained with them, and those who are in trouble, as being yourselves in the body.

bbe@Hebrews:13:5 @Be free from the love of money and pleased with the things which you have; for he himself has said, I will be with you at all times.

bbe@Hebrews:13:6 @So that we say with a good heart, The Lord is my helper; I will have no fear: what is man able to do to me?

bbe@Hebrews:13:7 @Keep in mind those who were over you, and who gave you the word of God; seeing the outcome of their way of life, let your faith be like theirs.

bbe@Hebrews:13:9 @Do not be turned away by different strange teachings, because it is good for your hearts to be made strong by grace, and not by meats, which were of no profit to those who took so much trouble over them.

bbe@Hebrews:13:15 @Let us then make offerings of praise to God at all times through him, that is to say, the fruit of lips giving witness to his name

bbe@Hebrews:13:16 @But go on doing good and giving to others, because God is well-pleased with such offerings.

bbe@Hebrews:13:17 @Give ear to those who are rulers over you, and do as they say: for they keep watch over your souls, ready to give an account of them; let them be able to do this with joy and not with grief, because that would be of no profit to you.

bbe@Hebrews:13:21 @Make you full of every good work and ready to do all his desires, working in us whatever is pleasing in his eyes through Jesus Christ; and may the glory be given to him for ever and ever. So be it.

bbe@Hebrews:13:22 @But, brothers, take kindly the words which I have said for your profit; for I have not sent you a long letter.

bbe@Hebrews:13:24 @Give words of love from me to those who are rulers over you, and to all the saints. Those who are in Italy send you their love.

bbe@Hebrews:13:25 @May grace be with you all.

bbe@James:1:2 @Let it be all joy to you, my brothers, when you undergo tests of every sort;

bbe@James:1:3 @Because you have the knowledge that the testing of your faith gives you the power of going on in hope;

bbe@James:1:4 @But let this power have its full effect, so that you may be made complete, needing nothing.

bbe@James:1:5 @But if any man among you is without wisdom, let him make his request to God, who gives freely to all without an unkind word, and it will be given to him.

bbe@James:1:6 @Let him make his request in faith, doubting nothing; for he who has doubt in his heart is like the waves of the sea, which are troubled by the driving of the wind.

bbe@James:1:7 @Let it not seem to such a man that he will get anything from the Lord;

bbe@James:1:9 @But let the brother of low position be glad that he is lifted up;

bbe@James:1:11 @For when the sun comes up with its burning heat, the grass gets dry and the grace of its form is gone with the falling flower; so the man of wealth comes to nothing in his ways.

bbe@James:1:13 @Let no man say when he is tested, I am tested by God; for it is not possible for God to be tested by evil, and he himself puts no man to such a test:

bbe@James:1:15 @Then when its time comes, desire gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is of full growth, gives birth to death.

bbe@James:1:17 @Every good and true thing is given to us from heaven, coming from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change or any shade made by turning.

bbe@James:1:18 @Of his purpose he gave us being, by his true word, so that we might be, in a sense, the first-fruits of all the things which he had made.

bbe@James:1:21 @For this reason, putting away all dirty behaviour and the overweight of evil, take into your souls without pride the word which, being planted there, is able to give you salvation.

bbe@James:1:22 @But be doers of the word, and not only hearers of it, blinding yourselves with false ideas.

bbe@James:1:25 @But he who goes on looking into the true law which makes him free, being not a hearer without memory but a doer putting it into effect, this man will have a blessing on his acts.

bbe@James:2:1 @My brothers, if you have the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory, do not take a man's position into account.

bbe@James:2:2 @For if a man comes into your Synagogue in fair clothing and with a gold ring, and a poor man comes in with dirty clothing,

bbe@James:2:3 @And you do honour to the man in fair clothing and say, Come here and take this good place; and you say to the poor man, Take up your position there, or be seated at my feet;

bbe@James:2:4 @Is there not a division in your minds? have you not become judges with evil thoughts?

bbe@James:2:5 @Give ear, my dear brothers; are not those who are poor in the things of this world marked out by God to have faith as their wealth, and for their heritage the kingdom which he has said he will give to those who have love for him?

bbe@James:2:8 @But if you keep the greatest law of all, as it is given in the holy Writings, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself, you do well:

bbe@James:2:9 @But if you take a man's position into account, you do evil, and are judged as evil-doers by the law.

bbe@James:2:10 @For anyone who keeps all the law, but makes a slip in one point, is judged to have gone against it all.

bbe@James:2:13 @For the man who has had no mercy will be judged without mercy, but mercy takes pride in overcoming judging.

bbe@James:2:14 @What use is it, my brothers, for a man to say that he has faith, if he does nothing? will such a faith give him salvation?

bbe@James:2:15 @If a brother or a sister is without clothing and in need of the day's food,

bbe@James:2:16 @And one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warm and full of food; but you do not give them the things of which their bodies have need, what profit is there in this?

bbe@James:2:17 @Even so faith without works is dead.

bbe@James:2:18 @But a man may say, You have faith and I have works; let me see your faith without your works, and I will make my faith clear to you by my works.

bbe@James:2:19 @You have the belief that God is one, and you do well: the evil spirits have the same belief, shaking with fear.

bbe@James:2:20 @Do you not see, O foolish man, that faith without works is of no use?

bbe@James:2:22 @You see that his faith was helping his works and was made complete by them;

bbe@James:2:23 @And the holy Writings were put into effect which said, And Abraham had faith in God and it was put to his account as righteousness; and he was named the friend of God.

bbe@James:2:24 @You see that a man's righteousness is judged by his works and not by his faith only.

bbe@James:2:26 @For as the body without the spirit is dead even so faith without works is dead.

bbe@James:3:3 @Now if we put bits of iron into horses' mouths so that they may be guided by us, we have complete control of their bodies.

bbe@James:3:4 @And again ships, though they are so great and are moved by violent winds, are turned by a very small guiding-blade, at the impulse of the man who is using it.

bbe@James:3:5 @Even so the tongue is a small part of the body, but it takes credit for great things. How much wood may be lighted by a very little fire!

bbe@James:3:6 @And the tongue is a fire; it is the power of evil placed in our bodies, making all the body unclean, putting the wheel of life on fire, and getting its fire from hell.

bbe@James:3:7 @For every sort of beast and bird and every living thing on earth and in the sea has been controlled by man and is under his authority;

bbe@James:3:8 @But the tongue may not be controlled by man; it is an unresting evil, it is full of the poison of death.

bbe@James:3:9 @With it we give praise to our Lord and Father; and with it we put a curse on men who are made in God's image.

bbe@James:3:11 @Does the fountain send from the same outlet sweet and bitter water?

bbe@James:3:14 @But if you have bitter envy in your heart and the desire to get the better of others, have no pride in this, talking falsely against what is true.

bbe@James:3:17 @But the wisdom which is from heaven is first holy, then gentle, readily giving way in argument, full of peace and mercy and good works, not doubting, not seeming other than it is.

bbe@James:3:18 @And the fruit of righteousness is planted in peace for those who make peace.

bbe@James:4:1 @What is the cause of wars and fighting among you? is it not in your desires which are at war in your bodies?

bbe@James:4:2 @You are burning with desire, and have not your desire, so you put men to death; you are full of envy, and you are not able to get your desire, so you are fighting and making war; you have not your desire, because you do not make request for it.

bbe@James:4:3 @You make your request but you do not get it, because your request has been wrongly made, desiring the thing only so that you may make use of it for your pleasure.

bbe@James:4:5 @Or does it seem to you that it is for nothing that the holy Writings say, The spirit which God put into our hearts has a strong desire for us?

bbe@James:4:6 @But he gives more grace. So that the Writings say, God is against the men of pride, but he gives grace to those who make themselves low before him.

bbe@James:4:8 @Come near to God and he will come near to you. Make your hands clean, you evil-doers; put away deceit from your hearts, you false in mind.

bbe@James:4:9 @Be troubled, with sorrow and weeping; let your laughing be turned to sorrow and your joy to grief.

bbe@James:4:13 @How foolish it is to say, Today or tomorrow we will go into this town, and be there for a year and do business there and get wealth:

bbe@James:4:14 @When you are not certain what will take place tomorrow. What is your life? It is a mist, which is seen for a little time and then is gone.

bbe@James:4:15 @But the right thing to say would be, If it is the Lord's pleasure and if we are still living, we will do this and that.

bbe@James:4:17 @The man who has knowledge of how to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

bbe@James:5:1 @Come now, you men of wealth, give yourselves to weeping and crying because of the bitter troubles which are coming to you.

bbe@James:5:3 @Your gold and your silver are wasted and their waste will be a witness against you, burning into your flesh. You have put by your store in the last days.

bbe@James:5:7 @Go on waiting calmly, my brothers, till the coming of the Lord, like the farmer waiting for the good fruit of the earth till the early and late rains have come.

bbe@James:5:8 @Be as calm in your waiting; let your hearts be strong: because the coming of the Lord is near.

bbe@James:5:9 @Say no hard things against one another, brothers, so that you will not be judged; see, the judge is waiting at the doors.

bbe@James:5:11 @We say that those men who have gone through pain are happy: you have the story of Job and the troubles through which he went and have seen that the Lord was full of pity and mercy in the end.

bbe@James:5:15 @And by the prayer of faith the man who is ill will be made well, and he will be lifted up by the Lord, and for any sin which he has done he will have forgiveness.

bbe@James:5:16 @So then, make a statement of your sins to one another, and say prayers for one another so that you may be made well. The prayer of a good man is full of power in its working.

bbe@James:5:18 @And he made another prayer, and the heaven sent down rain and the earth gave her fruit.

bbe@James:5:19 @My brothers, if one of you has gone out of the way of the true faith and another has made him see his error,

bbe@James:5:20 @Be certain that he through whom a sinner has been turned from the error of his way, keeps a soul from death and is the cause of forgiveness for sins without number.

bbe@1Peter:1:1 @Peter, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, to the saints who are living in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

bbe@1Peter:1:2 @Who, through the purpose of God, have been made holy by the Spirit, disciples of Jesus, made clean by his blood: May you have grace and peace in full measure.

bbe@1Peter:1:4 @And a heritage fair, holy and for ever new, waiting in heaven for you,

bbe@1Peter:1:5 @Who, by the power of God are kept, through faith, for that salvation, which will be seen at the last day.

bbe@1Peter:1:6 @You have cause for great joy in this, though it may have been necessary for you to be troubled for a little time, being tested in all sorts of ways,

bbe@1Peter:1:7 @So that the true metal of your faith, being of much greater value than gold (which, though it comes to an end, is tested by fire), may come to light in praise and glory and honour, at the revelation of Jesus Christ:

bbe@1Peter:1:8 @To whom your love is given, though you have not seen him; and the faith which you have in him, though you do not see him now, gives you joy greater than words and full of glory:

bbe@1Peter:1:9 @For so you have the true end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

bbe@1Peter:1:10 @For the prophets who gave the news of the grace which would come to you, made search with all care for knowledge of this salvation;

bbe@1Peter:1:11 @Attempting to see what sort of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them was pointing to, when it gave witness to the pains which Christ would undergo and the glories which would come after them.

bbe@1Peter:1:12 @And it was made clear to those prophets that they were God's servants not for themselves but for you, to give you word of the things which have now come to your ears from the preachers of the good news through the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; things which even angels have a desire to see.

bbe@1Peter:1:13 @So make your minds ready, and keep on the watch, hoping with all your power for the grace which is to come to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

bbe@1Peter:1:14 @Like children ruled by God, do not go back to the old desires of the time when you were without knowledge:

bbe@1Peter:1:16 @Because it has been said in the Writings, You are to be holy, for I am holy.

bbe@1Peter:1:17 @And if you give the name of Father to him who, judging every man by his acts, has no respect for a man's position, then go in fear while you are on this earth:

bbe@1Peter:1:18 @Being conscious that you have been made free from that foolish way of life which was your heritage from your fathers, not through a payment of things like silver or gold which come to destruction,

bbe@1Peter:1:21 @Who through him have faith in God who took him up again from the dead into glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.

bbe@1Peter:1:22 @And as you have made your souls clean, being ruled by what is true, and loving one another without deceit, see that your love is warm and from the heart:

bbe@1Peter:1:24 @For it is said, All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flower of the grass. The grass becomes dry and the flower dead:

bbe@1Peter:2:1 @So putting away all wrongdoing, and all tricks and deceits and envies and evil talk,

bbe@1Peter:2:5 @You, as living stones, are being made into a house of the spirit, a holy order of priests, making those offerings of the spirit which are pleasing to God through Jesus Christ.

bbe@1Peter:2:6 @Because it is said in the Writings, See, I am placing a keystone in Zion, of great and special value; and the man who has faith in him will not be put to shame.

bbe@1Peter:2:7 @And the value is for you who have faith; but it is said for those without faith, The very stone which the builders put on one side, was made the chief stone of the building;

bbe@1Peter:2:8 @And, A stone of falling, a rock of trouble; the word is the cause of their fall, because they go against it, and this was the purpose of God.

bbe@1Peter:2:11 @My loved ones, I make this request with all my heart, that, as those for whom this world is a strange country, you will keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh which make war against the soul;

bbe@1Peter:2:15 @Because it is God's pleasure that foolish and narrow-minded men may be put to shame by your good behaviour:

bbe@1Peter:2:16 @As those who are free, not using your free position as a cover for wrongdoing, but living as the servants of God;

bbe@1Peter:2:18 @Servants, take orders from your masters with all respect; not only if they are good and gentle, but even if they are bad-humoured.

bbe@1Peter:2:19 @For it is a sign of grace if a man, desiring to do right in the eyes of God, undergoes pain as punishment for something which he has not done.

bbe@1Peter:2:20 @What credit is it if, when you have done evil, you take your punishment quietly? but if you are given punishment for doing right, and take it quietly, this is pleasing to God.

bbe@1Peter:2:22 @Who did no evil, and there was no deceit in his mouth:

bbe@1Peter:3:4 @But let them be those of the unseen man of the heart, the ever-shining ornament of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great price in the eyes of God.

bbe@1Peter:3:7 @And you husbands, give thought to your way of life with your wives, giving honour to the woman who is the feebler vessel, but who has an equal part in the heritage of the grace of life; so that you may not be kept from prayer.

bbe@1Peter:3:8 @Last of all, see that you are all in agreement; feeling for one another, loving one another like brothers, full of pity, without pride:

bbe@1Peter:3:9 @Not giving back evil for evil, or curse for curse, but in place of cursing, blessing; because this is the purpose of God for you that you may have a heritage of blessing.

bbe@1Peter:3:10 @For it is said, Let the man who has a love of life, desiring to see good days, keep his tongue from evil and his lips from words of deceit:

bbe@1Peter:3:11 @And let him be turned from evil and do good; searching for peace and going after it with all his heart.

bbe@1Peter:3:15 @But give honour to Christ in your hearts as your Lord; and be ready at any time when you are questioned about the hope which is in you, to give an answer in the fear of the Lord and without pride;

bbe@1Peter:3:17 @Because if it is God's purpose for you to undergo pain, it is better to do so for well-doing than for evil-doing.

bbe@1Peter:3:18 @Because Christ once went through pain for sins, the upright one taking the place of sinners, so that through him we might come back to God; being put to death in the flesh, but given life in the Spirit;

bbe@1Peter:3:19 @By whom he went to the spirits in prison, preaching to those

bbe@1Peter:3:22 @Who has gone into heaven, and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been put under his rule.

bbe@1Peter:4:4 @And they are wondering that you no longer go with them in this violent wasting of life, and are saying evil things of you:

bbe@1Peter:4:6 @For this was the reason why the good news of Jesus was given even to the dead, so that they might be judged as men in the flesh, but might be living before God in the spirit.

bbe@1Peter:4:7 @But the end of all things is near: so be serious in your behaviour and keep on the watch with prayer;

bbe@1Peter:4:8 @And most of all be warm in your love for one another; because in love there is forgiveness for sins without number:

bbe@1Peter:4:9 @Keep open house for all with a glad heart;

bbe@1Peter:4:11 @If anyone has anything to say, let it be as the words of God; if anyone has the desire to be the servant of others, let him do it in the strength which is given by God; so that in all things God may have the glory through Jesus Christ, whose are the glory and the power for ever.

bbe@1Peter:4:12 @Dear brothers, do not be surprised, as if it was something strange, if your faith is tested as by fire:

bbe@1Peter:4:14 @If men say evil things of you because of the name of Christ, happy are you; for the Spirit of glory and of God is resting on you.

bbe@1Peter:4:17 @For the time has come for the judging, starting with the church of God; but if it makes a start with us, what will be the end of those who are not under the rule of God?

bbe@1Peter:4:18 @And if it is hard for even the good man to get salvation, what chance has the man without religion or the sinner?

bbe@1Peter:5:1 @I who am myself one of the rulers of the church, and a witness of the death of Christ, having my part in the coming glory, send this serious request to the chief men among you:

bbe@1Peter:5:2 @Keep watch over the flock of God which is in your care, using your authority, not as forced to do so, but gladly; and not for unclean profit but with a ready mind;

bbe@1Peter:5:3 @Not as lords over God's heritage, but making yourselves examples to the flock.

bbe@1Peter:5:8 @Be serious and keep watch; the Evil One, who is against you, goes about like a lion with open mouth in search of food;

bbe@1Peter:5:9 @Do not give way to him but be strong in your faith, in the knowledge that your brothers who are in the world undergo the same troubles.

bbe@1Peter:5:10 @And after you have undergone pain for a little time, the God of all grace who has given you a part in his eternal glory through Christ Jesus, will himself give you strength and support, and make you complete in every good thing;

bbe@1Peter:5:11 @His is the power for ever. So be it.

bbe@1Peter:5:12 @I have sent you this short letter by Silvanus, a true brother, in my opinion; comforting you and witnessing that this is the true grace of God; keep to it

bbe@1Peter:5:13 @She who is in Babylon, who has a part with you in the purpose of God, sends you her love; and so does my son Mark.

bbe@2Peter:1:1 @Simon Peter, a servant and Apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who with us have a part in the same holy faith in the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ:

bbe@2Peter:1:5 @So, for this very cause, take every care; joining virtue to faith, and knowledge to virtue,

bbe@2Peter:1:7 @And love of the brothers to fear of God, and to love of the brothers, love itself.

bbe@2Peter:1:8 @For if you have these things in good measure, they will make you fertile and full of fruit in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

bbe@2Peter:1:12 @For this reason I will be ready at all times to keep your memory of these things awake, though you have the knowledge of them now and are well based in your present faith.

bbe@2Peter:1:13 @And it seems right to me, as long as I am in this tent of flesh, to keep your minds awake by working on your memory;

bbe@2Peter:1:16 @For when we gave you news of the power and the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, our teaching was not based on stories put together by art, but we were eye-witnesses of his glory.

bbe@2Peter:1:17 @For God the Father gave him honour and glory, when such a voice came to him out of the great glory, saying, This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased.

bbe@2Peter:1:18 @And this voice came from heaven even to our ears, when we were with him on the holy mountain.

bbe@2Peter:1:19 @And so the words of the prophets are made more certain; and it is well for you to give attention to them as to a light shining in a dark place, till the dawn comes and the morning star is seen in your hearts;

bbe@2Peter:1:21 @For these words did not ever come through the impulse of men: but the prophets had them from God, being moved by the Holy Spirit.

bbe@2Peter:2:1 @But there were false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly put forward wrong teachings for your destruction, even turning away from the Lord who gave himself for them; whose destruction will come quickly, and they themselves will be the cause of it.

bbe@2Peter:2:2 @And a great number will go with them in their evil ways, through whom the true way will have a bad name.

bbe@2Peter:2:3 @And in their desire for profit they will come to you with words of deceit, like traders doing business in souls: whose punishment has been ready for a long time and their destruction is watching for them.

bbe@2Peter:2:4 @For if God did not have pity for the angels who did evil, but sent them down into hell, to be kept in chains of eternal night till they were judged;

bbe@2Peter:2:5 @And did not have mercy on the world which then was, but only kept safe Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when he let loose the waters over the world of the evil-doers;

bbe@2Peter:2:6 @And sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah, burning them up with fire as an example to those whose way of life might in the future be unpleasing to him;

bbe@2Peter:2:10 @But specially those who go after the unclean desires of the flesh, and make sport of authority. Ready to take chances, uncontrolled, they have no fear of saying evil of those in high places:

bbe@2Peter:2:12 @But these men, like beasts without reason, whose natural use is to be taken and put to death, crying out against things of which they have no knowledge, will undergo that same destruction which they are designing for others;

bbe@2Peter:2:13 @For the evil which overtakes them is the reward of their evil-doing: such men take their pleasure in the delights of the flesh even in the daytime; they are like the marks of a disease, like poisoned wounds among you, feasting together with you in joy;

bbe@2Peter:2:14 @Having eyes full of evil desire, never having enough of sin; turning feeble souls out of the true way; they are children of cursing, whose hearts are well used to bitter envy;

bbe@2Peter:2:16 @But his wrongdoing was pointed out to him: an ass, talking with a man's voice, put a stop to the error of the prophet.

bbe@2Peter:2:17 @These are fountains without water, and mists before a driving storm; for whom the eternal night is kept in store.

bbe@2Peter:2:18 @For with high-sounding false words, making use of the attraction of unclean desires of the flesh, they get into their power those newly made free from those who are living in error;

bbe@2Peter:2:20 @For if, after they have got free from the unclean things of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again taken in the net and overcome, their last condition is worse than their first.

bbe@2Peter:2:21 @For it would have been better for them to have had no knowledge of the way of righteousness, than to go back again from the holy law which was given to them, after having knowledge of it.

bbe@2Peter:2:22 @They are an example of that true saying, The dog has gone back to the food it had put out, and the pig which had been washed to its rolling in the dirty earth.

bbe@2Peter:3:4 @Saying, Where is the hope of his coming? From the death of the fathers till now everything has gone on as it was from the making of the world.

bbe@2Peter:3:7 @But the present heaven and the present earth have been kept for destruction by fire, which is waiting for them on the day of the judging and destruction of evil men.

bbe@2Peter:3:8 @But, my loved ones, keep in mind this one thing, that with the Lord one day is the same as a thousand years, and a thousand years are no more than one day.

bbe@2Peter:3:9 @The Lord is not slow in keeping his word, as he seems to some, but he is waiting in mercy for you, not desiring the destruction of any, but that all may be turned from their evil ways.

bbe@2Peter:3:10 @But the day of the Lord will come like a thief; and in that day the heavens will be rolled up with a great noise, and the substance of the earth will be changed by violent heat, and the world and everything in it will be burned up

bbe@2Peter:3:11 @Seeing then that all these things are coming to such an end, what sort of persons is it right for you to be, in all holy behaviour and righteousness,

bbe@2Peter:3:13 @But having faith in his word, we are looking for a new heaven and a new earth, which will be the resting-place of righteousness.

bbe@2Peter:3:15 @And be certain that the long waiting of the Lord is for salvation; even as our brother Paul has said in his letters to you, from the wisdom which was given to him;

bbe@2Peter:3:16 @And as he said in all his letters, which had to do with these things; in which are some hard sayings, so that, like the rest of the holy Writings, they are twisted by those who are uncertain and without knowledge, to the destruction of their souls.

bbe@2Peter:3:17 @For this reason, my loved ones, having knowledge of these things before they take place, take care that you are not turned away by the error of the uncontrolled, so falling from your true faith.

bbe@2Peter:3:18 @But be increased in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. May he have glory now and for ever. So be it.

bbe@1John:1:1 @That which was from the first, which has come to our ears, and which we have seen with our eyes, looking on it and touching it with our hands, about the Word of life

bbe@1John:1:2 @(And the life was made clear to us, and we have seen it and are witnessing to it and giving you word of that eternal life which was with the Father and was seen by us);

bbe@1John:1:3 @We give you word of all we have seen and everything which has come to our ears, so that you may be united with us; and we are united with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ:

bbe@1John:1:4 @And we are writing these things to you so that our joy may be made complete.

bbe@1John:1:7 @But if we are walking in the light, as he is in the light, we are all united with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son makes us clean from all sin.

bbe@1John:2:1 @My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may be without sin. And if any man is a sinner, we have a friend and helper with the Father, Jesus Christ, the upright one:

bbe@1John:2:8 @Again, I give you a new law, which is true in him and in you; for the night is near its end and the true light is even now shining out.

bbe@1John:2:11 @But he who has hate for his brother is in the dark, walking in the dark with no knowledge of where he is going, unable to see because of the dark.

bbe@1John:2:12 @I am writing to you, my children, because you have forgiveness of sins through his name.

bbe@1John:2:13 @I am writing to you, fathers, because you have knowledge of him who was from the first. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the Evil One. I have sent a letter to you, children, because you have knowledge of the Father.

bbe@1John:2:17 @And the world and its desires is coming to an end: but he who does God's pleasure is living for ever.

bbe@1John:2:18 @Little children, it is the last hour; and as you were given word that the Antichrist would come, so now a number of Antichrists have come to you; and by this we are certain that it is the last hour.

bbe@1John:2:19 @They went out from us but they were not of us; if they had been of us they would still be with us: but they went out from us so that it might be made clear that they were not of us.

bbe@1John:2:20 @And you have the Spirit from the Holy One and you all have knowledge.

bbe@1John:2:21 @I have not sent you this letter because you have no knowledge of what is true, but because you have knowledge, and because that which is false has nothing in common with that which is true.

bbe@1John:2:26 @I am writing these things to you about those whose purpose is that you may be turned out of the true way.

bbe@1John:2:27 @As for you, the Spirit which he gave you is still in you, and you have no need of any teacher; but as his Spirit gives you teaching about all things, and is true and not false, so keep your hearts in him, through the teaching which he has given you.

bbe@1John:2:29 @If you have knowledge that he is upright, it is clear to you that everyone who does righteousness is his offspring.

bbe@1John:3:1 @See what great love the Father has given us in naming us the children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not see who we are, because it did not see who he was.

bbe@1John:3:2 @My loved ones, now we are children of God, and at present it is not clear what we are to be. We are certain that at his revelation we will be like him; for we will see him as he is.

bbe@1John:3:7 @My little children, let no man take you out of the true way: he who does righteousness is upright, even as he is upright;

bbe@1John:3:10 @In this way it is clear who are the children of God and who are the children of the Evil One; anyone who does not do righteousness or who has no love for his brother, is not a child of God

bbe@1John:3:16 @In this we see what love is, because he gave his life for us; and it is right for us to give our lives for the brothers.

bbe@1John:3:17 @But if a man has this world's goods, and sees that his brother is in need, and keeps his heart shut against his brother, how is it possible for the love of God to be in him?

bbe@1John:3:18 @My little children, do not let our love be in word and in tongue, but let it be in act and in good faith.

bbe@1John:3:23 @And this is his law, that we have faith in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love for one another, even as he said to us.

bbe@1John:3:24 @He who keeps his laws is in God and God is in him. And the Spirit which he gave us is our witness that he is in us.

bbe@1John:4:1 @My loved ones, do not put your faith in every spirit, but put them to the test, to see if they are from God: because a great number of false prophets have gone out into the world.

bbe@1John:4:2 @By this you may have knowledge of the Spirit of God: every spirit which says that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God:

bbe@1John:4:3 @And every spirit which does not say this is not from God: this is the spirit of Antichrist, of which you have had word; and it is in the world even now.

bbe@1John:4:4 @You are of God, my little children, and you have overcome them because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

bbe@1John:4:6 @We are of God: he who has the knowledge of God gives ear to us; he who is not of God does not give ear to us. By this we may see which is the true spirit, and which is the spirit of error.

bbe@1John:4:11 @My loved ones, if God had such love for us, it is right for us to have love for one another.

bbe@1John:4:13 @And his Spirit which he has given us is the witness that we are in him and he is in us.

bbe@1John:4:14 @And we have seen and give witness that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

bbe@1John:4:16 @And we have seen and had faith in the love which God has for us. God is love, and everyone who has love is in God, and God is in him.

bbe@1John:4:17 @In this way love is made complete in us, so that we may be without fear on the day of judging, because as he is, so are we in this world.

bbe@1John:5:1 @Everyone who has faith that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God: and everyone who has love for the Father has love for his child.

bbe@1John:5:4 @Anything which comes from God is able to overcome the world: and the power by which we have overcome the world is our faith.

bbe@1John:5:5 @Who is able to overcome the world but the man who has faith that Jesus is the Son of God?

bbe@1John:5:7 @And the Spirit is the witness, because the Spirit is true.

bbe@1John:5:8 @There are three witnesses, the Spirit, the water, and the blood: and all three are in agreement.

bbe@1John:5:9 @If we take the witness of men to be true, the witness of God is greater: because this is the witness which God has given about his Son.

bbe@1John:5:10 @He who has faith in the Son of God has the witness in himself: he who has not faith in God makes him false, because he has not faith in the witness which God has given about his Son.

bbe@1John:5:11 @And his witness is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

bbe@1John:5:13 @I have put these things in writing for you who have faith in the name of the Son of God, so that you may be certain that you have eternal life.

bbe@1John:5:21 @My little children, keep yourselves from false gods.

bbe@2John:1:2 @Because of this true knowledge which is in us, and will be with us for ever:

bbe@2John:1:3 @May grace, mercy, and peace be with us from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in all true love.

bbe@2John:1:4 @It gave me great joy to see some of your children walking in the true way, even as we were ordered to do by the Father.

bbe@2John:1:6 @And love is the keeping of his laws. This is the law which was given to you from the first, so that you might keep it.

bbe@2John:1:7 @Because a number of false teachers have gone out into the world, who do not give witness that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Such a one is a false teacher and Antichrist.

bbe@2John:1:12 @Having much to say to you, it is not my purpose to put it all down with paper and ink: but I am hoping to come to you, and to have talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full.

bbe@3John:1:2 @My loved one, it is my prayer that you may do well in all things, and be healthy in body, even as your soul does well.

bbe@3John:1:3 @For it gave me great joy when some of the brothers came and gave witness that you had the true faith and were walking in the true way.

bbe@3John:1:6 @Who have given witness to the church of your love for them: and you will do well to send them on their way well cared for, as is right for servants of God:

bbe@3John:1:8 @So it is right for us to take in such men as guests, so that we may take our part in the work of the true faith.

bbe@3John:1:10 @So if I come, I will keep in mind the things he does, talking against us with evil words: and as if this was not enough, he does not take the brothers into his house, and those who are ready to take them in, he keeps from doing so, putting them out of the church if they do.

bbe@3John:1:12 @Demetrius has the approval of all men and of what is true: and we give the same witness, and you are certain that our witness is true.

bbe@3John:1:13 @I had much to say to you, but it is not my purpose to put it all down with ink and pen:

bbe@3John:1:14 @But I am hoping to see you in a short time, and to have talk with you face to face.

bbe@Jude:1:3 @My loved ones, while my thoughts were full of a letter which I was going to send you about our common salvation, it was necessary for me to send you one requesting you with all my heart to go on fighting strongly for the faith which has been given to the saints once and for ever.

bbe@Jude:1:4 @For certain men have come among you secretly, marked out before in the holy Writings for this evil fate, men without the fear of God, turning his grace into an unclean thing, and false to our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

bbe@Jude:1:5 @Now it is my purpose to put you in mind, though you once had knowledge of all these things, of how the Lord, having taken a people safely out of Egypt, later sent destruction on those who had no faith;

bbe@Jude:1:8 @In the same way these dreamers make the flesh unclean, having no respect for authorities, and say evil of rulers.

bbe@Jude:1:10 @But these men say evil about such things as they have no knowledge of; and the things of which they have natural knowledge, like beasts without reason, are the cause of their destruction.

bbe@Jude:1:12 @These men are unseen rocks at your love-feasts, when they take part in them with you, keepers of sheep who without fear take the food of the sheep; clouds without water rushing before the wind, wasted trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots,

bbe@Jude:1:13 @Violent waves of the sea, streaming with their shame, wandering stars for whom the darkest night is kept in store for ever.

bbe@Jude:1:14 @The prophet Enoch, who was the seventh after Adam, said of these men, The Lord came with tens of thousands of his saints,

bbe@Jude:1:15 @To be the judge of all, and to give a decision against all those whose lives are unpleasing to him, because of the evil acts which they have done, and because of all the hard things which sinners without fear of God have said against him.

bbe@Jude:1:16 @These are the men who make trouble, ever desiring change, going after evil pleasures, using high-sounding words, respecting men's position in the hope of reward.

bbe@Jude:1:19 @These are the men who make divisions, natural men, not having the Spirit.

bbe@Jude:1:20 @But you, my loved ones, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, and making prayers in the Holy Spirit,

bbe@Jude:1:22 @And have pity on those who are in doubt;

bbe@Jude:1:23 @And to some give salvation, pulling them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear, hating even the clothing which is made unclean by the flesh.

bbe@Jude:1:24 @Now to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to give you a place in his glory, free from all evil, with great joy,

bbe@Jude:1:25 @To the only God our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, let us give glory and honour and authority and power, before all time and now and for ever. So be it.

bbe@Revelation:1:1 @The Revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave him so that his servants might have knowledge of the things which will quickly take place: and he sent and made it clear by his angel to his servant John;
