Matthew:1:21 @ She will have a baby son. Name him Jesus, because he will save his people from the wrong things they have done.
bwe@Matthew:2:13 @ After the wise men had gone, Joseph had a dream. An angel of the Lord came to him and said, Get up. Take the child and his mother, and go quickly to the country of Egypt. Stay there till I tell you, because Herod will try to find the child and kill him.
bwe@Matthew:2:18 @ He said, A voice could be heard in the town of Ramah. Rachel was crying for her children. She would not let anyone comfort her because her children were dead.
bwe@Matthew:3:4 @ John wore clothes made of camels hair and a leather belt. He ate locusts and wild honey.
bwe@Matthew:3:6 @ He baptised them in the Jordan River when they said how sorry they were for the wrong things they had done.
bwe@Matthew:3:9 @ Do not think you can say to your-selves, "Abraham is our father." I tell you, God can make children for Abraham from these stones.
bwe@Matthew:4:3 @ The one who tries to make people do wrong came and said to him, If you are Gods Son, tell these stones to be changed into bread.
bwe@Matthew:4:6 @ The devil said to him, If you are Gods Son, jump down. The holy writings say, "God will tell his angels to take care of you. They will hold you up in their hands so that you will not knock your foot on a stone."
bwe@Matthew:4:10 @ But Jesus answered him, Get away, Satan. The holy writings say, "You must worship the Lord your God. and he is the only one you are to worship."
bwe@Matthew:5:17 @ Do not think that I have come to take away the law and the writings of the prophets. No, I have not come to take them away. But I have come to do what they say must be done.
bwe@Matthew:5:18 @ I tell you the truth. Until the sky and the earth are taken away, not one small part of the law will be taken away, until everything has been done.
bwe@Matthew:5:19 @ So anyone who does not obey one of the smallest laws, and teaches other people not to obey it, will have the smallest part in the kingdom of heaven. But any one who obeys and teaches the law, will have a big part in the kingdom of heaven.
bwe@Matthew:5:21 @ You have heard this said to men long ago, "Do not kill. Anyone who kills will be judged in court."
bwe@Matthew:5:22 @ But I tell you this. Anyone who is angry with his brother without having a good reason, will be judged in court. Anyone who says wrong things to his brother will be judged for it in the big court. Anyone who says "You fool!" will be judged to go into hell fire.
bwe@Matthew:5:25 @ If someone wants to take you to court, make an agreement with him quickly on the way. If you do not, he will take you to the judge. The judge will give you to the guard, and the guard will put you in prison.
bwe@Matthew:5:26 @ I tell you the truth, you will not get out of prison until you have paid every piece of money.
bwe@Matthew:5:36 @ Do not make a promise by your head, because you cannot make one hair of your head white or black.
bwe@Matthew:5:39 @ But I tell you, do not fight with anyone who does wrong to you. But if someone hits you on one side of your face, turn the other side to him also.
bwe@Matthew:5:40 @ If anyone takes you to court to get your shirt, let him have your coat also.
bwe@Matthew:5:41 @ If anyone wants you to help carry a load, go with him twice as far.
bwe@Matthew:5:42 @ When someone asks you for something, give it to him. When someone wants to borrow something from you, let him have it.
bwe@Matthew:6:2 @ So when you give money to poor people, do not send men in front of you to blow trumpets or horns. Some people do this in the meeting houses and on the streets so that people will praise them. They are not true to themselves. I tell you the truth. They have their pay already.
bwe@Matthew:6:3 @ But when you give money to poor people, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.
bwe@Matthew:6:10 @ "May your kingdom come. May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
bwe@Matthew:6:12 @ "Forgive us for the wrong things we have done, the way we forgive those who have done wrong things to us.
bwe@Matthew:6:13 @ "Do not test us but help us, so that no one will make us do wrong. Deliver us from the evil one. The kingdom and power and praise belong to you for ever. Amen!"
bwe@Matthew:6:14 @ If you forgive others for the wrong things they have done, then your Father in heaven will forgive you.
bwe@Matthew:6:15 @ But if you do not forgive others, your Father will not forgive you for the wrong things you have done.
bwe@Matthew:6:24 @ No man can work for two masters. He will hate one and love the other. Or he will obey one and despise the other. You cannot work for both God and money.
bwe@Matthew:6:27 @ Can any one of you live any longer by troubling yourself about these things?
bwe@Matthew:6:29 @ I tell you, King Solomon was a great man. But he was not dressed as fine as one of these flowers.
bwe@Matthew:6:30 @ God dresses the grass in the fields so it looks nice. It is in the field one day and the next day it is put on the fire. If God dresses the grass like that, he cares much more that you have clothes to wear. You do not believe in God very much!
bwe@Matthew:7:6 @ Do not give what is holy to dogs. Do not throw your fine stones to pigs. They will walk all over them, and then turn and hurt you.
bwe@Matthew:7:8 @ Everyone who asks will get. The one who looks will find. And the one who knocks will have the door opened for him.
bwe@Matthew:7:9 @ If your son asks for bread, will any of you give him a stone?
bwe@Matthew:7:24 @ Everyone who hears what I say and obeys me will be like a man who has good sense. He built his house on a rock.
bwe@Matthew:7:26 @ But everyone who hears what I say and does not obey me, will be like a man who has no sense. He built his house on the sand.
bwe@Matthew:8:4 @ Jesus said to him, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the sacrifice you must give when you are healed. Give it, to prove to people you are healed.
bwe@Matthew:8:6 @ He said, Sir, one of my servants is in bed at my house. He cannot move and has much pain.
bwe@Matthew:8:9 @ I myself am a man who takes orders, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I say to one, "Go," and he goes. I say to another one, "Come," and he comes. I say to my servant, "Do this," and he does it.
bwe@Matthew:8:13 @ Jesus said to the officer, Go home. What you have believed, will be done. At that very same time the officers servant was healed.
bwe@Matthew:9:2 @ Some men brought a sick man to him. The man could not move his arms or legs. He was lying on a bed. Jesus saw that they believed he would be healed. So he said to the sick man, My son, be glad! The wrong things you have done are forgiven.
bwe@Matthew:9:5 @ Which is easier, to say, "The wrong things you have done are forgiven," or to say, "Get up and walk"?
bwe@Matthew:9:6 @ I want you to know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive wrong things people have done. So he said to the sick man, Get up. Make up your bed and go home.
bwe@Matthew:9:16 @ No one sews a piece of new cloth on an old coat. If he does, the new cloth will tear the old coat. Then the hole is bigger than it was before.
bwe@Matthew:9:30 @ Then they were able to see. Jesus said to them, Take care, do not tell anyone about this.
bwe@Matthew:9:36 @ He saw the many people and was sorry for them. They were troubled and they could not help themselves. They were like sheep with no one to care for them.
bwe@Matthew:10:2 @ The names of the twelve apostles are: Simon, whose other name was Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee, Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector, James, the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose other name was Thaddaeus, Simon, the freedom fighter, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him.
bwe@Matthew:10:9 @ Do not take gold, silver, or brass money with you.
bwe@Matthew:10:10 @ Do not take a bag with you, and do not take two shirts, shoes, or a walking stick. The one who does the work should be given his food.
bwe@Matthew:10:22 @ Everyone will hate you because you are true to me. But the person who keeps on being true to me until the end, will be saved.
bwe@Matthew:10:23 @ When they trouble you in one town, go to another. I tell you the truth. You will not go to all the towns in Israel before the Son of Man comes.
bwe@Matthew:10:24 @ The one who learns is not better than his teacher. And the servant is not better than his master.
bwe@Matthew:10:25 @ The one who learns should want to be like his teacher. And the servant should want to be like his master. If they say the master belongs to the devil, they will say it all the more about those who work for him.
bwe@Matthew:10:28 @ Do not fear people who can kill the body. They cannot kill the spirit. But fear the one who can destroy both spirit and body in hell.
bwe@Matthew:10:29 @ Are not two sparrows worth only a small amount of money? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father knowing about it.
bwe@Matthew:10:32 @ If anyone tells people that he knows me, I will also tell the Father in heaven that I know him.
bwe@Matthew:10:33 @ But anyone who tells people he does not know me, I will also tell my Father in heaven that I do not know him.
bwe@Matthew:10:37 @ Anyone who loves his father or his mother more than he loves me, is not good enough for me. Anyone who loves his son or his daughter more than he loves me, is not good enough for me.
bwe@Matthew:10:38 @ Anyone who is not willing to carry his cross and suffer with me, is not good enough for me.
bwe@Matthew:10:39 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life, will lose it. Anyone who gives up his life for my sake, will find it.
bwe@Matthew:10:40 @ Anyone who takes you in, takes me in. And anyone who takes me in, takes in the one who sent me.
bwe@Matthew:10:41 @ Anyone who takes in a prophet because he is a prophet of God will get a prophets reward.
bwe@Matthew:10:42 @ And if any one as a disciple gives a drink of cold water to one of my children, he will not lose his reward. I tell you the truth.
bwe@Matthew:11:3 @ He asked, Are you the one who will come? Or shall we wait for another person?
bwe@Matthew:11:6 @ Anyone who is not troubled in his heart about me, will be happy.
bwe@Matthew:11:11 @ I tell you the truth. No one has ever been born who is greater than John the Baptizer. And yet the smallest one in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
bwe@Matthew:11:15 @ Everyone who has ears, listen.
bwe@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came. He eats and drinks. People say, "This man eats and drinks too much! He is a friend with tax collectors and bad people!" But a man is proved to be wise by what he has done.
bwe@Matthew:11:20 @ Then Jesus began to talk about the towns where he had done most of his big works. He said hard things about the people, because they did not stop their wrong ways and turn back to God.
bwe@Matthew:11:21 @ He said, Chorazin! You will have trouble! Bethsaida! You will have trouble! If the big works I did in you had been done in the cities of Tyre and Sidon, the people there would have stopped their wrong ways long ago. They would wear the clothes people wear to show they are sad. They would sit in ashes.
bwe@Matthew:11:23 @ Capernaum, will you be lifted up to the sky? No, you will go down to death. If the big things I did in you had been done in the city of Sodom, it would be standing now.
bwe@Matthew:11:27 @ He said, My Father has given everything to me. No one knows who the Son is but the Father. No one knows who the Father is but the Son and those to whom the Son wants to show him.
bwe@Matthew:12:6 @ I tell you, there is someone here who is greater than the temple.
bwe@Matthew:12:11 @ Jesus said to them, If one of you had a sheep and it fell into a hole on the Sabbath day, would you not take hold of it and pull it out?
bwe@Matthew:12:19 @ He will not fight or shout. No one will hear his voice in the streets.
bwe@Matthew:12:25 @ Jesus knew what they were thinking. He said to them, If one part of any country fights against the other part of the country, that country is broken down. If one part of any city or family fights against the other part of it, it cannot stand.
bwe@Matthew:12:29 @ If anyone wants to go into a strong mans house and steal his things, he must first tie the strong man. Then he can steal his things.
bwe@Matthew:12:30 @ Anyone who is not with me, is against me. Anyone who does not work with me is working against me.
bwe@Matthew:12:32 @ Anyone who says anything against the Son of Man will be forgiven. But anyone who says anything against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. He will not be forgiven in this world or in the next world.
bwe@Matthew:12:39 @ But Jesus answered them, The people today are bad. They have gone away from God. They want a sign. No sign will be given them but the sign of the prophet Jonah.
bwe@Matthew:12:41 @ When people are judged, the men of the city of Nineveh will stand up and speak against the people of today. The people of Nineveh stopped their wrong ways when Jonah told them Gods word. And the one who is here is greater than Jonah.
bwe@Matthew:12:42 @ When people are judged, the Queen of the South will stand up and speak against the people of today. She came a long way to hear the wise talk of Solomon. And the one who is here is greater than Solomon.
bwe@Matthew:12:43 @ When a bad spirit has gone out of a man, he goes through dry places. He looks for a place to rest, but he does not find any.
bwe@Matthew:12:47 @ Someone told him, Your mother and your brothers are standing outside. They want to talk to you.
bwe@Matthew:12:50 @ Anyone who obeys my Father in heaven is my brother, my sister, and my mother.
bwe@Matthew:13:5 @ Some seed fell on the stony ground. Not much earth covered the stones. The seed started to grow right away because it was not deep in the ground.
bwe@Matthew:13:9 @ Everyone who has ears, listen!
bwe@Matthew:13:12 @ Anyone who already has something will get more, and he will have plenty. But he who does not have anything, even the little that he has will be taken away from him.
bwe@Matthew:13:19 @ People listen to the message about the kingdom of heaven. If anyone does not understand it, the devil comes along and takes the message out of his heart. That person is like the seed which fell on the road.
bwe@Matthew:13:22 @ Some seed fell among the weeds. That is like the person who hears the message. But he thinks about the things of this world. He wants to get money to be happy. These things push the message out of his heart. No good comes from it.
bwe@Matthew:13:28 @ He answered them, "A bad man has done this." They asked him, "Do you want us to go and pull up the weeds?"
bwe@Matthew:13:38 @ The field is the world. The good seed means the people who belong to the kingdom. The weeds mean those who belong to the bad one.
bwe@Matthew:13:43 @ Then the people who are right with God will shine like the sun in their Fathers kingdom. Everyone who has ears, listen.
bwe@Matthew:13:44 @ The kingdom of heaven is like this. Something worth a lot of money is buried in a field. A man found it and covered it again. He was so glad that he went and sold everything he had. Then he bought that field.
bwe@Matthew:13:45 @ The kingdom of heaven is like this. A trader was looking for fine stones called pearls.
bwe@Matthew:13:46 @ He found a pearl that was worth a lot of money. Then he went and sold everything he had and bought it.
bwe@Matthew:13:52 @ Then Jesus said to them, So anyone who knows the law and has learned about the kingdom of heaven, is like the headman of a house. He can bring both new things and old things out of what he has stored up.
bwe@Matthew:14:10 @ He sent someone to the prison to cut off Johns head.
bwe@Matthew:14:13 @ When Jesus heard this, he went away from there in a boat. He went to a lonely place by himself. The people heard that he went away and they followed him. They walked from the towns around there.
bwe@Matthew:14:15 @ In the evening the disciples came to him. They said, This is a lonely place. And the time is late. Send these people away so they can go to the farms and villages to buy food for themselves.
bwe@Matthew:14:23 @ After he had sent them away, he went up on the hill by himself to talk with God. Evening came and he was there alone.
bwe@Matthew:15:4 @ God said, "Respect your father and your mother." And God said, "Anyone who says wrong things to his father or his mother will surely die."
bwe@Matthew:15:5 @ But you say, "Tell your father or your mother that you have given to God what you were going to give to them." You say, "If anyone says that, then he does not need to help his father or mother."
bwe@Matthew:15:14 @ Leave them alone. They are blind men who are trying to lead blind men. If a blind man leads a blind man, they will both fall into a hole.
bwe@Matthew:15:27 @ Then Jesus answered, Woman, you believe very much. The thing you want me to do will be done. And her daughter was healed at that very time.
bwe@Matthew:15:32 @ The disciples said to him, Where can we get enough food in this lonely place to feed so many people?
bwe@Matthew:16:4 @ People today are wrong. They have gone away from God. They want a sign. No sign will be given them but the sign of Jonah. Then Jesus went away and left them.
bwe@Matthew:16:14 @ They answered, Some people say you are John the Baptizer. Others say you are Elijah. And others say you are Jeremiah or one of the prophets.
bwe@Matthew:16:20 @ Then Jesus said to the disciples, Do not tell anyone that I am the Christ.
bwe@Matthew:16:22 @ Peter took him to one side and began to talk to him. He said, Lord! May God stop it! This must never happen to you.
bwe@Matthew:16:24 @ Then Jesus told his disciples, If anyone wants to come with me, he must leave what he himself wants to do. He must be willing to carry his cross and come with me.
bwe@Matthew:16:25 @ Anyone who wants to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life for my sake will find it.
bwe@Matthew:16:27 @ The Son of Man will come with his angels and will be great like his Father. Then he will pay every man for what he has done.
bwe@Matthew:17:4 @ Peter said to Jesus, Lord, this is a good place for us. If you want, we will make three places here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
bwe@Matthew:17:8 @ When they looked up, they saw no one but Jesus.
bwe@Matthew:17:9 @ When they came down the hill, Jesus said to them, Do not tell anyone what you saw. Do not tell it until after the Son of Man has been raised from death.
bwe@Matthew:17:19 @ Then the disciples came to Jesus alone. They asked him, Why could we not drive the bad spirit out?
bwe@Matthew:17:27 @ But we must not make them think something wrong about us. So go to the sea. Throw a fish-hook into the water. Take the first fish you catch. Open its mouth and you will see a piece of money. Take it and pay them the tax for you and me.
bwe@Matthew:18:4 @ So anyone who feels himself small like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
bwe@Matthew:18:5 @ If anyone takes in a child like this for my sake, he takes in me.
bwe@Matthew:18:6 @ These little children believe in me. If anyone makes one of them do wrong, he will be punished. He will have worse trouble than if a big stone were tied to his neck and he were thrown into the deep sea.
bwe@Matthew:18:9 @ If your eye makes you do wrong, pull it out and throw it away! It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, than to have two eyes and be thrown into the hell fire.
bwe@Matthew:18:11 @ The Son of Man came to save anyone who is lost.
bwe@Matthew:18:12 @ What do you think about this? A man has a hundred sheep. One of them is lost. Will he not leave the ninety-nine sheep on the hills and go to look for the one that is lost? Yes, he will.
bwe@Matthew:18:13 @ I tell you the truth. When he finds it, he is more happy to see that one than the ninety-nine that were not lost.
bwe@Matthew:18:14 @ In the same way, my Father in heaven does not want one of these little children to be lost.
bwe@Matthew:18:15 @ If your brother does something wrong to you, go to him. Talk alone to him and tell him what he has done. If he listens to you, you have kept your brother as a friend.
bwe@Matthew:18:16 @ But if he does not listen to you, take one or two others with you to talk to him. Then two or three people will hear every word and can prove what was said.
bwe@Matthew:18:17 @ If he does not listen to them, tell the church. If he does not listen to the church, treat him as one who does not believe in God and as bad as a tax collector.
bwe@Matthew:18:24 @ The first servant was brought in. He owed the king a very large sum of money.
bwe@Matthew:18:27 @ His master was sorry for him and let him go. He did not make him pay the money.
bwe@Matthew:18:28 @ That same servant went out and met another servant. This man owed him a much smaller sum of money. He caught him by the throat and said, Pay me what you owe me!"
bwe@Matthew:18:31 @ The other servants saw what he did. They were very sad. They went and told their master everything that had been done.
bwe@Matthew:18:35 @ That is like what my Father in heaven will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.
bwe@Matthew:19:5 @ God said, "A man must leave his father and mother and must stay with his wife. The two of them will be like one person."
bwe@Matthew:19:6 @ So they are not two people any more, but they are one person. Man must not separate what God has joined together.
bwe@Matthew:19:11 @ Jesus said, Not everyone can agree to that. But God has chosen some not to be married.
bwe@Matthew:19:12 @ Some men cannot marry because they were born that way. Some were made that way by men. Others said, "I will not marry, for the sake of the kingdom of heaven." Anyone who can do this, should do it.
bwe@Matthew:19:21 @ Jesus said, If you want to be all right, go and sell everything you have. Give the money to poor people. For this you will be rich in heaven. Then come and go with me.
bwe@Matthew:19:28 @ Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. In the new world, the Son of Man will be great. He will sit on his throne of glory <FI>big chair of a king<Fi> to rule. Then you who have come with me will also sit on twelve thrones. You will judge the twelve tribes of Israel.
bwe@Matthew:19:29 @ If anyone has left his house, his brothers, his sisters, his father, his mother, his children, or his farms for my sake, he will receive a hundred times as much as he has left. And he will live for ever.
bwe@Matthew:20:5 @ The man went out again at twelve oclock and at three oclock. He did the same as he had done before.
bwe@Matthew:20:12 @ They said, "These men came last, and worked only one hour. Yet you paid them the same as you paid us. We worked all day, when the sun was hot."
bwe@Matthew:20:13 @ But he said to one of them, "My friend, I am not doing any wrong to you. You agreed that I should pay you a days wages. Did you not?
bwe@Matthew:20:14 @ Take your money and go. I want to give the last man the same pay as I gave you.
bwe@Matthew:20:15 @ It is my own money. Can I not do with it as I like? Do you think it is a wrong thing for me to be kind?"
bwe@Matthew:20:21 @ Jesus asked, What do you want me to do for you? The woman said, These are my two sons. Promise that in your kingdom one may sit at your right and the other at your left.
bwe@Matthew:20:26 @ But that is not the way it is among you. Anyone among you who wants to be great will help the others.
bwe@Matthew:20:27 @ Anyone among you who wants to be first will be a servant to the others.
bwe@Matthew:21:2 @ He said to them, Go into the village in front of you. As soon as you go in, you will find a donkey for riding, and her young one. They are tied there. Untie them and bring them to me.
bwe@Matthew:21:3 @ If anyone says anything to you, tell him, "The Lord needs them. He will send them back soon."
bwe@Matthew:21:7 @ They brought the donkey and her young one. They put their coats on them. Then Jesus got on to ride.
bwe@Matthew:21:12 @ Jesus went into the temple of God. He drove out all the people who were buying and selling in the temple. He threw down the tables of the money changers. He pushed down the seats of those who sold doves.
bwe@Matthew:21:21 @ Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. Believe God. Do not doubt him. Then you can do what I did to this fig tree. But that is not all. You can even say to this hill, "Go and jump into the sea" and it will be done.
bwe@Matthew:21:28 @ What do you think about this? A man had two sons. He went to the first one and said, "Son, go and work today on my farm."
bwe@Matthew:21:31 @ Which of the two sons did what his father wanted him to do? They said, The first one. Then Jesus said, I tell you the truth. The tax collectors and women who commit adultery by selling their bodies, are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.
bwe@Matthew:21:35 @ The men caught the servants. They beat one of them and killed another one of them. They threw stones at another one.
bwe@Matthew:21:38 @ When the men saw the son, they said to each other, "This is the one who will have everything when his father dies. Let us kill him and we will have it all."
bwe@Matthew:21:42 @ Jesus said, Have you never read in the holy writings "The stone which the builders would not use is now the chief corner stone. The Lord did this. It looks wonderful to us"?
bwe@Matthew:21:44 @ If anyone falls on this stone, he will be broken to pieces. But if this stone falls on anyone, it will crush him.
bwe@Matthew:22:5 @ The people did not listen, but went away. One went to his farm. One went to his business.
bwe@Matthew:22:11 @ The king came in to look at the people. He saw one man there who was not wearing the right clothes for a wedding.
bwe@Matthew:22:19 @ Show me a piece of money used for tax. They brought him a piece of money.
bwe@Matthew:22:25 @ There were seven brothers among us. The first one married. He died and left no children. So his brother married the wife.
bwe@Matthew:22:26 @ The same thing happened to the second brother, and the third one, and all seven of them.
bwe@Matthew:22:35 @ One of them was a man who taught Gods law. He asked Jesus a question to try him out.
bwe@Matthew:22:46 @ No one could answer him a word. And after that day, everyone feared to ask him any more questions.
bwe@Matthew:23:3 @ So obey and do everything they tell you to do. But do not do what they do. They say what should be done, but they do it not.
bwe@Matthew:23:4 @ They make heavy loads and put them on peoples backs. But they themselves will not put up even one finger to help carry the loads.
bwe@Matthew:23:8 @ But people should not call you "Teacher". You have one Teacher. And you are all brothers.
bwe@Matthew:23:9 @ Do not call anyone on earth your "Father". You have one Father. He is in heaven.
bwe@Matthew:23:10 @ People should not call you "Master". You have one Master. He is the Christ.
bwe@Matthew:23:12 @ Anyone who puts himself up will be brought down. And anyone who puts himself down will be brought up.
bwe@Matthew:23:15 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You travel over sea and land to win one person to believe what you believe. And when he believes, you make him twice as fit for hell as you are.
bwe@Matthew:23:16 @ You blind leaders will have trouble. You say that if anyone makes a promise in the name of the temple, he does not have to keep that promise. But if anyone makes a promise in the name of the gold on the temple, he must keep that promise.
bwe@Matthew:23:18 @ And you say that if anyone makes a promise in the name of Gods altar, he does not have to keep that promise. But if anyone makes a promise in the name of the sacrifice, he must keep that promise.
bwe@Matthew:23:20 @ So if anyone makes a promise by Gods altar, he makes his promise by it and by all that is on it.
bwe@Matthew:23:21 @ If anyone makes a promise by the temple, he makes his promise by the temple and by God who lives in the temple.
bwe@Matthew:23:22 @ If anyone makes a promise by heaven, he makes his promise by Gods big chair called a throne and by God who sits on the throne.
bwe@Matthew:23:23 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You give God a tenth part of small garden plants. But you have not done those bigger matters of the law. You have not judged in the right way. You have not been kind. You have not believed God. You should be doing these things and the other things too.
bwe@Matthew:23:27 @ You scribes and Pharisees will have trouble. You who are not true to yourselves! You are like graves that have been painted white. Outside they look very nice. But inside they are full of dead mens bones and all kinds of dirt.
bwe@Matthew:23:34 @ That is why I send you prophets, wise men, and teachers. You will kill some of them and nail them to a cross. And you will beat some of them in your meeting houses and trouble them from one town to another.
bwe@Matthew:23:37 @ Jerusalem! Jerusalem! You kill the prophets. You throw stones to kill the men who are sent to you! How often I have wanted to gather your people together, as a mother hen gathers her little ones under her wings. But you would not come!
bwe@Matthew:23:38 @ Now you are left alone in your house.
bwe@Matthew:24:2 @ But Jesus answered them, Do you see these buildings? I tell you the truth. Not one stone here will be left on top of another stone. They will all be thrown down!
bwe@Matthew:24:3 @ Jesus was sitting on the hill called the Mount of Olives. The disciples came to him alone. They said, Tell us, when will this happen? What will be the sign to show you are coming and that it is the end of this world?
bwe@Matthew:24:4 @ Jesus answered them, Take care. Do not let anyone fool you.
bwe@Matthew:24:7 @ One tribe will fight against another tribe. And one country will fight against another country. The people will have no food to eat. Many people will be sick. The earth will shake in many different places.
bwe@Matthew:24:10 @ Then many people will stop believing. They will give one another over to trouble. They will hate one another.
bwe@Matthew:24:13 @ But the person who keeps on being true to me until the end, that one will be saved.
bwe@Matthew:24:15 @ Daniel the prophet said that people would put something very bad in the temple. (Let the one who reads this understand it.)
bwe@Matthew:24:23 @ If anyone says to you then, "Look, here is the Christ!" or "There he is!" do not believe it.
bwe@Matthew:24:36 @ But no one knows the day and the hour when the Son of Man will come. Even the angels in heaven and the Son do not know. Only the Father knows.
bwe@Matthew:24:38 @ In the days before the water covered the earth, people ate and drank. They married and gave their daughters to be married. Then one day Noah went into his house built on a boat.
bwe@Matthew:24:40 @ Two men will be working together in the field. One will be taken and the other will be left.
bwe@Matthew:24:41 @ Two women will be making flour together. One woman will be taken away and one woman will be left.
bwe@Matthew:25:4 @ The wise ones took bottles of oil with their lamps.
bwe@Matthew:25:8 @ The foolish ones said to the wise ones, "Give us some of your oil. The light in our lamps is dying."
bwe@Matthew:25:9 @ But the wise ones answered, "There may not be enough oil for us all. Go to the market and buy some for yourselves."
bwe@Matthew:25:14 @ The kingdom of heaven will be like the time a man went to a country far away. He called his servants and put them in charge of his money.
bwe@Matthew:25:15 @ He gave five bags of money to one servant. He gave two bags of money to another servant. He gave one bag of money to another servant. He gave to each one what he was able to be in charge of. Then he went away.
bwe@Matthew:25:16 @ Right away the servant who had five bags of money began to buy and sell things with it. He made five bags of money more than he had at first.
bwe@Matthew:25:17 @ The servant who had two bags of money did the same thing as the one who had five bags. He also made two bags of money more than he had at first.
bwe@Matthew:25:18 @ But the man who had only one bag of money dug a hole in the ground. And he hid his masters money in the ground.
bwe@Matthew:25:19 @ After a long time, the master of those servants came home. He asked what they had done with his money.
bwe@Matthew:25:20 @ The servant who had been given five bags of money brought five bags more to his master. He said, "Sir, you gave me five bags of money. See, I have made five bags more money."
bwe@Matthew:25:21 @ His master said, "You have done well. You are a good servant. I can trust you. You have taken good care of a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Come, have a good time with your master."
bwe@Matthew:25:22 @ The servant who had been given two bags of money came and said to his master, "Sir, you gave me two bags of money. I have made two bags more money."
bwe@Matthew:25:23 @ His master said, "You have done well. You are a good servant. I can trust you. You have taken good care of a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Come, have a good time with your master."
bwe@Matthew:25:24 @ The servant who had been given one bag of money came and said, "Sir, I knew that you were a hard man. You cut grain where you did not plant. You pick fruit where you put nothing in.
bwe@Matthew:25:25 @ I was afraid. So I went and hid your money in the ground. Here is your money."
bwe@Matthew:25:27 @ You should have put my money in the bank. Then when I came home, I would have had my money with interest on it.
bwe@Matthew:25:28 @ So take the money away from him. Give it to the one who has ten bags.
bwe@Matthew:25:29 @ Anyone who has some will get more, and he will have plenty. But he who does not get anything, even the little that he has will be taken away from him.
bwe@Matthew:25:31 @ The Son of Man will be great and will come with all his holy angels. Then he will sit on his throne like a king.
bwe@Matthew:25:32 @ All the nations will be gathered in front of him. He will put them in two groups like a man who takes care of sheep. He puts the sheep on one side of him and he puts the goats on the other side of him.
bwe@Matthew:26:7 @ While Jesus sat at the table, a woman came to him. She had a bottle of oil. It smelled very nice and cost much money. She put the oil on Jesus head.
bwe@Matthew:26:9 @ The oil might have been sold for much money. Then the money could have been given to poor people.
bwe@Matthew:26:10 @ When Jesus heard it, he said to them, Why do you trouble the woman? She has done a good thing to me.
bwe@Matthew:26:13 @ I tell you the truth. Any place in the whole world where people tell the good news, people will also tell what she has done. People will remember her because of it.
bwe@Matthew:26:14 @ Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve disciples, went to the chief priests.
bwe@Matthew:26:15 @ He said, What will you give me if I help you catch Jesus? They gave him thirty pieces of silver money.
bwe@Matthew:26:21 @ As they were eating, Jesus said, I tell you the truth. One of you will give me over to people who hate me.
bwe@Matthew:26:22 @ They were very sad and troubled. One after the other they began to say to him, Lord, is it I?
bwe@Matthew:26:23 @ Jesus answered them, The man who is putting his hand in the dish with me is the one who will give me over.
bwe@Matthew:26:25 @ Judas was the one who would give Jesus over to the people who hated him. He said, Master, is it I? Jesus said, Yes, it is.
bwe@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus said to them, All of you will leave me this night. The holy writings say, "I will kill the one who takes care of the sheep. And the sheep will run away."
bwe@Matthew:26:39 @ Jesus went on a little further. He bowed down with his face to the ground. He talked to God and said, My Father, if it can be, let this cup of trouble pass by me. But do not do what I want. May what you want be done.
bwe@Matthew:26:40 @ Jesus went back to the disciples and found them sleeping. He said to Peter, What? Could you not watch with me for one hour?
bwe@Matthew:26:46 @ Get up. Let us go. Look, here comes the one who will give me over to people who hate me!
bwe@Matthew:26:47 @ As Jesus was saying this, Judas came. He was one of the twelve disciples. Many people came with him. They had long knives or swords and big sticks. The chief priests and the leaders of the people had sent them.
bwe@Matthew:26:48 @ The man who was going to help them catch Jesus had told them that he would give them a sign. He said, The man that I kiss is the one. Catch him and hold him.
bwe@Matthew:26:51 @ One of the men who was with Jesus took his sword in his hand. He hit the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear.
bwe@Matthew:26:59 @ The chief priests and all the judges of the court tried to find men to say Jesus had done something wrong so they could kill him.
bwe@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus answered him, Yes, I am. Also I tell you that after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the One who has all power. You will see him coming on the clouds in the sky!
bwe@Matthew:26:73 @ A little later, those standing around came to Peter and said, Surely you are one of them also. We know it by the way you talk.
bwe@Matthew:27:3 @ Judas was the man who helped them take Jesus. He saw that they had judged Jesus and were going to kill him. He was sorry for what he had done, so he brought the thirty pieces of silver money back to the chief priests and leaders.
bwe@Matthew:27:4 @ He said, I have done wrong. I have helped you take a good man who should not be killed. They said, What do we care? You look after that!
bwe@Matthew:27:5 @ Judas threw the silver money into the temple. He went away and hanged himself.
bwe@Matthew:27:6 @ The chief priests took the money. They said, It is not right to put this money in the money box of the temple. It has been used to buy a mans death.
bwe@Matthew:27:9 @ What Jeremiah the prophet said long ago, then came true at that time. He said, They took thirty pieces of silver money. That is what the people of Israel said he was worth.
bwe@Matthew:27:14 @ But Jesus did not answer him, not even one word. Pilate was very much surprised about this.
bwe@Matthew:27:15 @ At the feast Pilate used to let one prisoner free. He let the people choose the man they wanted to go free.
bwe@Matthew:27:17 @ So while the people were there Pilate asked them, Which one do you want me to let free for you, Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?
bwe@Matthew:27:23 @ The ruler said, What wrong thing has he done? But they shouted even more, Nail him to a cross!
bwe@Matthew:27:33 @ They came to a place called Golgotha. That means, The place of a head bone.
bwe@Matthew:27:38 @ Two bad men were also nailed to crosses. They had stolen money. One man was put on the right side of Jesus and one was put on the left side of him.
bwe@Matthew:27:46 @ About three oclock, Jesus called out loud, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? That means, My God, my God, why have you left me alone?
bwe@Matthew:27:48 @ Right away, one of them ran to get something called a sponge. He made it wet with sour wine and put it on the end of a stick. With it he gave Jesus a drink.
bwe@Matthew:27:60 @ He put the body in his own new grave which had been cut in a rock. He rolled a very big stone to close the grave. Then he went away.
bwe@Matthew:27:66 @ So they went and shut the grave tight. They put a government mark on the big stone. And the soldiers stayed to guard it. This was to make sure the grave would stay shut.![[pBiblx2]](/img/pbiblx2_logo3.png){kind=logo}
