nkjv@Joshua:1:2 @ "Moses My servant is dead. Now therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people, to the land which I am giving to them--the children of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:1:6 @ Be strong and of good courage, for to this people you shall divide as an inheritance the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.

nkjv@Joshua:1:7 @ Only be strong and very courageous, that you may observe to do according to all the law which Moses My servant commanded you; do not turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may prosper wherever you go.

nkjv@Joshua:1:9 @ Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go."

nkjv@Joshua:1:16 @ So they answered Joshua, saying, "All that you command us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.

nkjv@Joshua:2:1 @ Now Joshua the son of Nun sent out two men from Acacia Grove to spy secretly, saying, "Go, view the land, especially Jericho." So they went, and came to the house of a harlot named Rahab, and lodged there.

nkjv@Joshua:2:2 @ And it was told the king of Jericho, saying, "Behold, men have come here tonight from the children of Israel to search out the country."

nkjv@Joshua:2:4 @ Then the woman took the two men and hid them. So she said, "Yes, the men came to me, but I did not know where they were from.

nkjv@Joshua:2:5 @ And it happened as the gate was being shut, when it was dark, that the men went out. Where the men went I do not know; pursue them quickly, for you may overtake them."

nkjv@Joshua:2:10 @ For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea for you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were on the other side of the Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed.

nkjv@Joshua:2:11 @ And as soon as we heard these things, our hearts melted; neither did there remain any more courage in anyone because of you, for the LORD your God, He is God in heaven above and on earth beneath.

nkjv@Joshua:2:12 @ Now therefore, I beg you, swear to me by the LORD, since I have shown you kindness, that you also will show kindness to my father's house, and give me a true token,

nkjv@Joshua:2:13 @ and spare my father, my mother, my brothers, my sisters, and all that they have, and deliver our lives from death."

nkjv@Joshua:2:14 @ So the men answered her, "Our lives for yours, if none of you tell this business of ours. And it shall be, when the LORD has given us the land, that we will deal kindly and truly with you."

nkjv@Joshua:2:15 @ Then she let them down by a rope through the window, for her house was on the city wall; she dwelt on the wall.

nkjv@Joshua:2:16 @ And she said to them, "Get to the mountain, lest the pursuers meet you. Hide there three days, until the pursuers have returned. Afterward you may go your way."

nkjv@Joshua:2:17 @ So the men said to her: "We will be blameless of this oath of yours which you have made us swear,

nkjv@Joshua:2:18 @ unless, when we come into the land, you bind this line of scarlet cord in the window through which you let us down, and unless you bring your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your father's household to your own home.

nkjv@Joshua:2:22 @ They departed and went to the mountain, and stayed there three days until the pursuers returned. The pursuers sought them all along the way, but did not find them.

nkjv@Joshua:3:1 @ Then Joshua rose early in the morning; and they set out from Acacia Grove and came to the Jordan, he and all the children of Israel, and lodged there before they crossed over.

nkjv@Joshua:3:4 @ Yet there shall be a space between you and it, about two thousand cubits by measure. Do not come near it, that you may know the way by which you must go, for you have not passed this way before."

nkjv@Joshua:3:9 @ So Joshua said to the children of Israel, "Come here, and hear the words of the LORD your God."

nkjv@Joshua:3:12 @ Now therefore, take for yourselves twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one man from every tribe.

nkjv@Joshua:4:3 @ and command them, saying, "Take for yourselves twelve stones from here, out of the midst of the Jordan, from the place where the priests' feet stood firm. You shall carry them over with you and leave them in the lodging place where you lodge tonight."'

nkjv@Joshua:4:8 @ And the children of Israel did so, just as Joshua commanded, and took up twelve stones from the midst of the Jordan, as the LORD had spoken to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel, and carried them over with them to the place where they lodged, and laid them down there.

nkjv@Joshua:4:9 @ Then Joshua set up twelve stones in the midst of the Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests who bore the ark of the covenant stood; and they are there to this day.

nkjv@Joshua:4:17 @ Joshua therefore commanded the priests, saying, "Come up from the Jordan."

nkjv@Joshua:4:21 @ Then he spoke to the children of Israel, saying: "When your children ask their fathers in time to come, saying, "What are these stones?'

nkjv@Joshua:5:1 @ So it was, when all the kings of the Amorites who were on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard that the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, that their heart melted; and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:5:6 @ For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people who were men of war, who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they did not obey the voice of the LORD--to whom the LORD swore that He would not show them the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers that He would give us, "a land flowing with milk and honey."

nkjv@Joshua:5:9 @ Then the LORD said to Joshua, "This day I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you." Therefore the name of the place is called Gilgal to this day.

nkjv@Joshua:5:15 @ Then the Commander of the LORD's army said to Joshua, "Take your sandal off your foot, for the place where you stand is holy." And Joshua did so.

nkjv@Joshua:6:17 @ Now the city shall be doomed by the LORD to destruction, it and all who are in it. Only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent.

nkjv@Joshua:6:22 @ But Joshua had said to the two men who had spied out the country, "Go into the harlot's house, and from there bring out the woman and all that she has, as you swore to her."

nkjv@Joshua:6:23 @ And the young men who had been spies went in and brought out Rahab, her father, her mother, her brothers, and all that she had. So they brought out all her relatives and left them outside the camp of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:6:25 @ And Joshua spared Rahab the harlot, her father's household, and all that she had. So she dwells in Israel to this day, because she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

nkjv@Joshua:7:3 @ And they returned to Joshua and said to him, "Do not let all the people go up, but let about two or three thousand men go up and attack Ai. Do not weary all the people there, for the people of Ai are few."

nkjv@Joshua:7:4 @ So about three thousand men went up there from the people, but they fled before the men of Ai.

nkjv@Joshua:7:5 @ And the men of Ai struck down about thirty-six men, for they chased them from before the gate as far as Shebarim, and struck them down on the descent; therefore the hearts of the people melted and became like water.

nkjv@Joshua:7:7 @ And Joshua said, "Alas, Lord GOD, why have You brought this people over the Jordan at all--to deliver us into the hand of the Amorites, to destroy us? Oh, that we had been content, and dwelt on the other side of the Jordan!

nkjv@Joshua:7:12 @ Therefore the children of Israel could not stand before their enemies, but turned their backs before their enemies, because they have become doomed to destruction. Neither will I be with you anymore, unless you destroy the accursed from among you.

nkjv@Joshua:7:13 @ Get up, sanctify the people, and say, "Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, because thus says the LORD God of Israel: "There is an accursed thing in your midst, O Israel; you cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the accursed thing from among you."

nkjv@Joshua:7:14 @ In the morning therefore you shall be brought according to your tribes. And it shall be that the tribe which the LORD takes shall come according to families; and the family which the LORD takes shall come by households; and the household which the LORD takes shall come man by man.

nkjv@Joshua:7:21 @ When I saw among the spoils a beautiful Babylonian garment, two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. And there they are, hidden in the earth in the midst of my tent, with the silver under it."

nkjv@Joshua:7:22 @ So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent; and there it was, hidden in his tent, with the silver under it.

nkjv@Joshua:7:26 @ Then they raised over him a great heap of stones, still there to this day. So the LORD turned from the fierceness of His anger. Therefore the name of that place has been called the Valley of Achor to this day.

nkjv@Joshua:8:6 @ For they will come out after us till we have drawn them from the city, for they will say, "They are fleeing before us as at the first.' Therefore we will flee before them.

nkjv@Joshua:8:9 @ Joshua therefore sent them out; and they went to lie in ambush, and stayed between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of Ai; but Joshua lodged that night among the people.

nkjv@Joshua:8:14 @ Now it happened, when the king of Ai saw it, that the men of the city hurried and rose early and went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at an appointed place before the plain. But he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.

nkjv@Joshua:8:16 @ So all the people who were in Ai were called together to pursue them. And they pursued Joshua and were drawn away from the city.

nkjv@Joshua:8:17 @ There was not a man left in Ai or Bethel who did not go out after Israel. So they left the city open and pursued Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:8:22 @ Then the others came out of the city against them; so they were caught in the midst of Israel, some on this side and some on that side. And they struck them down, so that they let none of them remain or escape.

nkjv@Joshua:8:24 @ And it came to pass when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness where they pursued them, and when they all had fallen by the edge of the sword until they were consumed, that all the Israelites returned to Ai and struck it with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@Joshua:8:32 @ And there, in the presence of the children of Israel, he wrote on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he had written.

nkjv@Joshua:8:33 @ Then all Israel, with their elders and officers and judges, stood on either side of the ark before the priests, the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD, the stranger as well as he who was born among them. Half of them were in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded before, that they should bless the people of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:8:35 @ There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded which Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel, with the women, the little ones, and the strangers who were living among them.

nkjv@Joshua:9:2 @ that they gathered together to fight with Joshua and Israel with one accord.

nkjv@Joshua:9:6 @ And they went to Joshua, to the camp at Gilgal, and said to him and to the men of Israel, "We have come from a far country; now therefore, make a covenant with us."

nkjv@Joshua:9:8 @ But they said to Joshua, "We are your servants." And Joshua said to them, "Who are you, and where do you come from?"

nkjv@Joshua:9:11 @ Therefore our elders and all the inhabitants of our country spoke to us, saying, "Take provisions with you for the journey, and go to meet them, and say to them, "We are your servants; now therefore, make a covenant with us."'

nkjv@Joshua:9:19 @ Then all the rulers said to all the congregation, "We have sworn to them by the LORD God of Israel; now therefore, we may not touch them.

nkjv@Joshua:9:23 @ Now therefore, you are cursed, and none of you shall be freed from being slaves--woodcutters and water carriers for the house of my God."

nkjv@Joshua:9:24 @ So they answered Joshua and said, "Because your servants were clearly told that the LORD your God commanded His servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants of the land from before you; therefore we were very much afraid for our lives because of you, and have done this thing.

nkjv@Joshua:9:25 @ And now, here we are, in your hands; do with us as it seems good and right to do to us."

nkjv@Joshua:10:3 @ Therefore Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying,

nkjv@Joshua:10:5 @ Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gathered together and went up, they and all their armies, and camped before Gibeon and made war against it.

nkjv@Joshua:10:6 @ And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua at the camp at Gilgal, saying, "Do not forsake your servants; come up to us quickly, save us and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the mountains have gathered together against us."

nkjv@Joshua:10:9 @ Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.

nkjv@Joshua:10:11 @ And it happened, as they fled before Israel and were on the descent of Beth Horon, that the LORD cast down large hailstones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died. There were more who died from the hailstones than the children of Israel killed with the sword.

nkjv@Joshua:10:13 @ So the sun stood still, And the moon stopped, Till the people had revenge Upon their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.

nkjv@Joshua:10:14 @ And there has been no day like that, before it or after it, that the LORD heeded the voice of a man; for the LORD fought for Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:10:19 @ And do not stay there yourselves, but pursue your enemies, and attack their rear guard. Do not allow them to enter their cities, for the LORD your God has delivered them into your hand."

nkjv@Joshua:10:27 @ So it was at the time of the going down of the sun that Joshua commanded, and they took them down from the trees, cast them into the cave where they had been hidden, and laid large stones against the cave's mouth, which remain until this very day.

nkjv@Joshua:11:3 @ to the Canaanites in the east and in the west, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite in the mountains, and the Hivite below Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

nkjv@Joshua:11:5 @ And when all these kings had met together, they came and camped together at the waters of Merom to fight against Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:11:11 @ And they struck all the people who were in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them. There was none left breathing. Then he burned Hazor with fire.

nkjv@Joshua:11:17 @ from Mount Halak and the ascent to Seir, even as far as Baal Gad in the Valley of Lebanon below Mount Hermon. He captured all their kings, and struck them down and killed them.

nkjv@Joshua:11:19 @ There was not a city that made peace with the children of Israel, except the Hivites, the inhabitants of Gibeon. All the others they took in battle.

nkjv@Joshua:11:23 @ So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD had said to Moses; and Joshua gave it as an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. Then the land rested from war.

nkjv@Joshua:12:1 @ These are the kings of the land whom the children of Israel defeated, and whose land they possessed on the other side of the Jordan toward the rising of the sun, from the River Arnon to Mount Hermon, and all the eastern Jordan plain:

nkjv@Joshua:12:4 @ The other king was Og king of Bashan and his territory, who was of the remnant of the giants, who dwelt at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,

nkjv@Joshua:12:5 @ and reigned over Mount Hermon, over Salcah, over all Bashan, as far as the border of the Geshurites and the Maachathites, and over half of Gilead to the border of Sihon king of Heshbon.

nkjv@Joshua:12:17 @ the king of Tappuah, one; the king of Hepher, one;

nkjv@Joshua:13:1 @ Now Joshua was old, advanced in years. And the LORD said to him: "You are old, advanced in years, and there remains very much land yet to be possessed.

nkjv@Joshua:13:5 @ the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrise, from Baal Gad below Mount Hermon as far as the entrance to Hamath;

nkjv@Joshua:13:6 @ all the inhabitants of the mountains from Lebanon as far as the Brook Misrephoth, and all the Sidonians--them I will drive out from before the children of Israel; only divide it by lot to Israel as an inheritance, as I have commanded you.

nkjv@Joshua:13:7 @ Now therefore, divide this land as an inheritance to the nine tribes and half the tribe of Manasseh."

nkjv@Joshua:13:8 @ With the other half-tribe the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses had given them, beyond the Jordan eastward, as Moses the servant of the LORD had given them:

nkjv@Joshua:13:11 @ Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maachathites, all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan as far as Salcah;

nkjv@Joshua:13:14 @ Only to the tribe of Levi he had given no inheritance; the sacrifices of the LORD God of Israel made by fire are their inheritance, as He said to them.

nkjv@Joshua:13:15 @ And Moses had given to the tribe of the children of Reuben an inheritance according to their families.

nkjv@Joshua:13:23 @ And the border of the children of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and their villages.

nkjv@Joshua:13:24 @ Moses also had given an inheritance to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad according to their families.

nkjv@Joshua:13:27 @ and in the valley Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, with the Jordan as its border, as far as the edge of the Sea of Chinnereth, on the other side of the Jordan eastward.

nkjv@Joshua:13:28 @ This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and their villages.

nkjv@Joshua:13:29 @ Moses also had given an inheritance to half the tribe of Manasseh; it was for half the tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families:

nkjv@Joshua:13:32 @ These are the areas which Moses had distributed as an inheritance in the plains of Moab on the other side of the Jordan, by Jericho eastward.

nkjv@Joshua:13:33 @ But to the tribe of Levi Moses had given no inheritance; the LORD God of Israel was their inheritance, as He had said to them.

nkjv@Joshua:14:1 @ These are the areas which the children of Israel inherited in the land of Canaan, which Eleazar the priest, Joshua the son of Nun, and the heads of the fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel distributed as an inheritance to them.

nkjv@Joshua:14:2 @ Their inheritance was by lot, as the LORD had commanded by the hand of Moses, for the nine tribes and the half-tribe.

nkjv@Joshua:14:3 @ For Moses had given the inheritance of the two tribes and the half-tribe on the other side of the Jordan; but to the Levites he had given no inheritance among them.

nkjv@Joshua:14:9 @ So Moses swore on that day, saying, "Surely the land where your foot has trodden shall be your inheritance and your children's forever, because you have wholly followed the LORD my God.'

nkjv@Joshua:14:10 @ And now, behold, the LORD has kept me alive, as He said, these forty-five years, ever since the LORD spoke this word to Moses while Israel wandered in the wilderness; and now, here I am this day, eighty-five years old.

nkjv@Joshua:14:12 @ Now therefore, give me this mountain of which the LORD spoke in that day; for you heard in that day how the Anakim were there, and that the cities were great and fortified. It may be that the LORD will be with me, and I shall be able to drive them out as the LORD said."

nkjv@Joshua:14:13 @ And Joshua blessed him, and gave Hebron to Caleb the son of Jephunneh as an inheritance.

nkjv@Joshua:14:14 @ Hebron therefore became the inheritance of Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite to this day, because he wholly followed the LORD God of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:15:1 @ So this was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families: The border of Edom at the Wilderness of Zin southward was the extreme southern boundary.

nkjv@Joshua:15:2 @ And their southern border began at the shore of the Salt Sea, from the bay that faces southward.

nkjv@Joshua:15:3 @ Then it went out to the southern side of the Ascent of Akrabbim, passed along to Zin, ascended on the south side of Kadesh Barnea, passed along to Hezron, went up to Adar, and went around to Karkaa.

nkjv@Joshua:15:4 @ From there it passed toward Azmon and went out to the Brook of Egypt; and the border ended at the sea. This shall be your southern border.

nkjv@Joshua:15:5 @ The east border was the Salt Sea as far as the mouth of the Jordan. And the border on the northern quarter began at the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan.

nkjv@Joshua:15:8 @ And the border went up by the Valley of the Son of Hinnom to the southern slope of the Jebusite city (which is Jerusalem). The border went up to the top of the mountain that lies before the Valley of Hinnom westward, which is at the end of the Valley of Rephaim northward.

nkjv@Joshua:15:13 @ Now to Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a share among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, namely, Kirjath Arba, which is Hebron (Arba was the father of Anak).

nkjv@Joshua:15:14 @ Caleb drove out the three sons of Anak from there: Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of Anak.

nkjv@Joshua:15:15 @ Then he went up from there to the inhabitants of Debir (formerly the name of Debir was Kirjath Sepher).

nkjv@Joshua:15:16 @ And Caleb said, "He who attacks Kirjath Sepher and takes it, to him I will give Achsah my daughter as wife."

nkjv@Joshua:15:17 @ So Othniel the son of Kenaz, the brother of Caleb, took it; and he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife.

nkjv@Joshua:15:18 @ Now it was so, when she came to him, that she persuaded him to ask her father for a field. So she dismounted from her donkey, and Caleb said to her, "What do you wish?"

nkjv@Joshua:15:19 @ She answered, "Give me a blessing; since you have given me land in the South, give me also springs of water." So he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.

nkjv@Joshua:15:20 @ This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families:

nkjv@Joshua:15:42 @ Libnah, Ether, Ashan,

nkjv@Joshua:16:4 @ So the children of Joseph, Manasseh and Ephraim, took their inheritance.

nkjv@Joshua:16:5 @ The border of the children of Ephraim, according to their families, was thus: The border of their inheritance on the east side was Ataroth Addar as far as Upper Beth Horon.

nkjv@Joshua:16:8 @ The border went out from Tappuah westward to the Brook Kanah, and it ended at the sea. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Ephraim according to their families.

nkjv@Joshua:16:9 @ The separate cities for the children of Ephraim were among the inheritance of the children of Manasseh, all the cities with their villages.

nkjv@Joshua:17:1 @ There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph: namely for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war; therefore he was given Gilead and Bashan.

nkjv@Joshua:17:2 @ And there was a lot for the rest of the children of Manasseh according to their families: for the children of Abiezer, the children of Helek, the children of Asriel, the children of Shechem, the children of Hepher, and the children of Shemida; these were the male children of Manasseh the son of Joseph according to their families.

nkjv@Joshua:17:3 @ But Zelophehad the son of Hepher, the son of Gilead, the son of Machir, the son of Manasseh, had no sons, but only daughters. And these are the names of his daughters: Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah, and Tirzah.

nkjv@Joshua:17:4 @ And they came near before Eleazar the priest, before Joshua the son of Nun, and before the rulers, saying, "The LORD commanded Moses to give us an inheritance among our brothers." Therefore, according to the commandment of the LORD, he gave them an inheritance among their father's brothers.

nkjv@Joshua:17:5 @ Ten shares fell to Manasseh, besides the land of Gilead and Bashan, which were on the other side of the Jordan,

nkjv@Joshua:17:6 @ because the daughters of Manasseh received an inheritance among his sons; and the rest of Manasseh's sons had the land of Gilead.

nkjv@Joshua:17:7 @ And the territory of Manasseh was from Asher to Michmethath, that lies east of Shechem; and the border went along south to the inhabitants of En Tappuah.

nkjv@Joshua:17:10 @ Southward it was Ephraim's, northward it was Manasseh's, and the sea was its border. Manasseh's territory was adjoining Asher on the north and Issachar on the east.

nkjv@Joshua:17:11 @ And in Issachar and in Asher, Manasseh had Beth Shean and its towns, Ibleam and its towns, the inhabitants of Dor and its towns, the inhabitants of En Dor and its towns, the inhabitants of Taanach and its towns, and the inhabitants of Megiddo and its towns--three hilly regions.

nkjv@Joshua:17:14 @ Then the children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, "Why have you given us only one lot and one share to inherit, since we are a great people, inasmuch as the LORD has blessed us until now?"

nkjv@Joshua:17:15 @ So Joshua answered them, "If you are a great people, then go up to the forest country and clear a place for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and the giants, since the mountains of Ephraim are too confined for you."

nkjv@Joshua:18:1 @ Now the whole congregation of the children of Israel assembled together at Shiloh, and set up the tabernacle of meeting there. And the land was subdued before them.

nkjv@Joshua:18:2 @ But there remained among the children of Israel seven tribes which had not yet received their inheritance.

nkjv@Joshua:18:3 @ Then Joshua said to the children of Israel: "How long will you neglect to go and possess the land which the LORD God of your fathers has given you?

nkjv@Joshua:18:4 @ Pick out from among you three men for each tribe, and I will send them; they shall rise and go through the land, survey it according to their inheritance, and come back to me.

nkjv@Joshua:18:6 @ You shall therefore survey the land in seven parts and bring the survey here to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD our God.

nkjv@Joshua:18:7 @ But the Levites have no part among you, for the priesthood of the LORD is their inheritance. And Gad, Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave them."

nkjv@Joshua:18:8 @ Then the men arose to go away; and Joshua charged those who went to survey the land, saying, "Go, walk through the land, survey it, and come back to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the LORD in Shiloh."

nkjv@Joshua:18:10 @ Then Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD, and there Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their divisions.

nkjv@Joshua:18:13 @ The border went over from there toward Luz, to the side of Luz (which is Bethel) southward; and the border descended to Ataroth Addar, near the hill that lies on the south side of Lower Beth Horon.

nkjv@Joshua:18:19 @ And the border passed along to the north side of Beth Hoglah; then the border ended at the north bay at the Salt Sea, at the south end of the Jordan. This was the southern boundary.

nkjv@Joshua:18:20 @ The Jordan was its border on the east side. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin, according to its boundaries all around, according to their families.

nkjv@Joshua:18:28 @ Zelah, Eleph, Jebus (which is Jerusalem), Gibeath, and Kirjath: fourteen cities with their villages. This was the inheritance of the children of Benjamin according to their families.

nkjv@Joshua:19:1 @ The second lot came out for Simeon, for the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families. And their inheritance was within the inheritance of the children of Judah.

nkjv@Joshua:19:2 @ They had in their inheritance Beersheba (Sheba), Moladah,

nkjv@Joshua:19:7 @ Ain, Rimmon, Ether, and Ashan: four cities and their villages;

nkjv@Joshua:19:8 @ and all the villages that were all around these cities as far as Baalath Beer, Ramah of the South. This was the inheritance of the tribe of the children of Simeon according to their families.

nkjv@Judges:9:21 @ And Jotham ran away and fled; and he went to Beer and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.

nkjv@Judges:9:23 @ God sent a spirit of ill will between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech,

nkjv@Judges:9:24 @ that the crime done to the seventy sons of Jerubbaal might be settled and their blood be laid on Abimelech their brother, who killed them, and on the men of Shechem, who aided him in the killing of his brothers.

nkjv@Judges:9:26 @ Now Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brothers and went over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him.

nkjv@Judges:9:27 @ So they went out into the fields, and gathered grapes from their vineyards and trod them, and made merry. And they went into the house of their god, and ate and drank, and cursed Abimelech.

nkjv@Judges:9:28 @ Then Gaal the son of Ebed said, "Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerubbaal, and is not Zebul his officer? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem; but why should we serve him?

nkjv@Judges:9:31 @ And he sent messengers to Abimelech secretly, saying, "Take note! Gaal the son of Ebed and his brothers have come to Shechem; and here they are, fortifying the city against you.

nkjv@Judges:9:32 @ Now therefore, get up by night, you and the people who are with you, and lie in wait in the field.

nkjv@Judges:9:37 @ So Gaal spoke again and said, "See, people are coming down from the center of the land, and another company is coming from the Diviners' Terebinth Tree."

nkjv@Judges:9:38 @ Then Zebul said to him, "Where indeed is your mouth now, with which you said, "Who is Abimelech, that we should serve him?' Are not these the people whom you despised? Go out, if you will, and fight with them now."

nkjv@Judges:9:41 @ Then Abimelech dwelt at Arumah, and Zebul drove out Gaal and his brothers, so that they would not dwell in Shechem.

nkjv@Judges:9:43 @ So he took his people, divided them into three companies, and lay in wait in the field. And he looked, and there were the people, coming out of the city; and he rose against them and attacked them.

nkjv@Judges:9:44 @ Then Abimelech and the company that was with him rushed forward and stood at the entrance of the gate of the city; and the other two companies rushed upon all who were in the fields and killed them.

nkjv@Judges:9:47 @ And it was told Abimelech that all the men of the tower of Shechem were gathered together.

nkjv@Judges:9:51 @ But there was a strong tower in the city, and all the men and women--all the people of the city--fled there and shut themselves in; then they went up to the top of the tower.

nkjv@Judges:9:56 @ Thus God repaid the wickedness of Abimelech, which he had done to his father by killing his seventy brothers.

nkjv@Judges:10:1 @ After Abimelech there arose to save Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in the mountains of Ephraim.

nkjv@Judges:10:8 @ From that year they harassed and oppressed the children of Israel for eighteen years--all the children of Israel who were on the other side of the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, in Gilead.

nkjv@Judges:10:13 @ Yet you have forsaken Me and served other gods. Therefore I will deliver you no more.

nkjv@Judges:10:17 @ Then the people of Ammon gathered together and encamped in Gilead. And the children of Israel assembled together and encamped in Mizpah.

nkjv@Judges:10:18 @ And the people, the leaders of Gilead, said to one another, "Who is the man who will begin the fight against the people of Ammon? He shall be head over all the inhabitants of Gilead."

nkjv@Judges:11:2 @ Gilead's wife bore sons; and when his wife's sons grew up, they drove Jephthah out, and said to him, "You shall have no inheritance in our father's house, for you are the son of another woman."

nkjv@Judges:11:3 @ Then Jephthah fled from his brothers and dwelt in the land of Tob; and worthless men banded together with Jephthah and went out raiding with him.

nkjv@Judges:11:7 @ So Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, "Did you not hate me, and expel me from my father's house? Why have you come to me now when you are in distress?"

nkjv@Judges:11:13 @ And the king of the people of Ammon answered the messengers of Jephthah, "Because Israel took away my land when they came up out of Egypt, from the Arnon as far as the Jabbok, and to the Jordan. Now therefore, restore those lands peaceably."

nkjv@Judges:11:18 @ And they went along through the wilderness and bypassed the land of Edom and the land of Moab, came to the east side of the land of Moab, and encamped on the other side of the Arnon. But they did not enter the border of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab.

nkjv@Judges:11:20 @ But Sihon did not trust Israel to pass through his territory. So Sihon gathered all his people together, encamped in Jahaz, and fought against Israel.

nkjv@Judges:11:27 @ Therefore I have not sinned against you, but you wronged me by fighting against me. May the LORD, the Judge, render judgment this day between the children of Israel and the people of Ammon."'

nkjv@Judges:11:34 @ When Jephthah came to his house at Mizpah, there was his daughter, coming out to meet him with timbrels and dancing; and she was his only child. Besides her he had neither son nor daughter.

nkjv@Judges:11:35 @ And it came to pass, when he saw her, that he tore his clothes, and said, "Alas, my daughter! You have brought me very low! You are among those who trouble me! For I have given my word to the LORD, and I cannot go back on it."

nkjv@Judges:11:36 @ So she said to him, "My father, if you have given your word to the LORD, do to me according to what has gone out of your mouth, because the LORD has avenged you of your enemies, the people of Ammon."

nkjv@Judges:11:37 @ Then she said to her father, "Let this thing be done for me: let me alone for two months, that I may go and wander on the mountains and bewail my virginity, my friends and I."

nkjv@Judges:11:38 @ So he said, "Go." And he sent her away for two months; and she went with her friends, and bewailed her virginity on the mountains.

nkjv@Judges:11:39 @ And it was so at the end of two months that she returned to her father, and he carried out his vow with her which he had vowed. She knew no man. And it became a custom in Israel

nkjv@Judges:12:1 @ Then the men of Ephraim gathered together, crossed over toward Zaphon, and said to Jephthah, "Why did you cross over to fight against the people of Ammon, and did not call us to go with you? We will burn your house down on you with fire!"

nkjv@Judges:12:4 @ Now Jephthah gathered together all the men of Gilead and fought against Ephraim. And the men of Gilead defeated Ephraim, because they said, "You Gileadites are fugitives of Ephraim among the Ephraimites and among the Manassites."

nkjv@Judges:12:6 @ then they would say to him, "Then say, "Shibboleth'!" And he would say, "Sibboleth," for he could not pronounce it right. Then they would take him and kill him at the fords of the Jordan. There fell at that time forty-two thousand Ephraimites.

nkjv@Judges:12:9 @ He had thirty sons. And he gave away thirty daughters in marriage, and brought in thirty daughters from elsewhere for his sons. He judged Israel seven years.

nkjv@Judges:13:2 @ Now there was a certain man from Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren and had no children.

nkjv@Judges:13:3 @ And the Angel of the LORD appeared to the woman and said to her, "Indeed now, you are barren and have borne no children, but you shall conceive and bear a son.

nkjv@Judges:13:4 @ Now therefore, please be careful not to drink wine or similar drink, and not to eat anything unclean.

nkjv@Judges:13:6 @ So the woman came and told her husband, saying, "A Man of God came to me, and His countenance was like the countenance of the Angel of God, very awesome; but I did not ask Him where He was from, and He did not tell me His name.

nkjv@Judges:13:9 @ And God listened to the voice of Manoah, and the Angel of God came to the woman again as she was sitting in the field; but Manoah her husband was not with her.

nkjv@Judges:13:10 @ Then the woman ran in haste and told her husband, and said to him, "Look, the Man who came to me the other day has just now appeared to me!"

nkjv@Judges:13:13 @ So the Angel of the LORD said to Manoah, "Of all that I said to the woman let her be careful.

nkjv@Judges:13:14 @ She may not eat anything that comes from the vine, nor may she drink wine or similar drink, nor eat anything unclean. All that I commanded her let her observe."

nkjv@Judges:14:2 @ So he went up and told his father and mother, saying, "I have seen a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines; now therefore, get her for me as a wife."

nkjv@Judges:14:3 @ Then his father and mother said to him, "Is there no woman among the daughters of your brethren, or among all my people, that you must go and get a wife from the uncircumcised Philistines?" And Samson said to his father, "Get her for me, for she pleases me well."

nkjv@Judges:14:4 @ But his father and mother did not know that it was of the LORD--that He was seeking an occasion to move against the Philistines. For at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.

nkjv@Judges:14:5 @ So Samson went down to Timnah with his father and mother, and came to the vineyards of Timnah. Now to his surprise, a young lion came roaring against him.

nkjv@Judges:14:6 @ And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he tore the lion apart as one would have torn apart a young goat, though he had nothing in his hand. But he did not tell his father or his mother what he had done.

nkjv@Judges:14:8 @ After some time, when he returned to get her, he turned aside to see the carcass of the lion. And behold, a swarm of bees and honey were in the carcass of the lion.

nkjv@Judges:14:9 @ He took some of it in his hands and went along, eating. When he came to his father and mother, he gave some to them, and they also ate. But he did not tell them that he had taken the honey out of the carcass of the lion.

nkjv@Judges:14:10 @ So his father went down to the woman. And Samson gave a feast there, for young men used to do so.

nkjv@Judges:14:15 @ But it came to pass on the seventh day that they said to Samson's wife, "Entice your husband, that he may explain the riddle to us, or else we will burn you and your father's house with fire. Have you invited us in order to take what is ours? Is that not so?"

nkjv@Judges:14:16 @ Then Samson's wife wept on him, and said, "You only hate me! You do not love me! You have posed a riddle to the sons of my people, but you have not explained it to me." And he said to her, "Look, I have not explained it to my father or my mother; so should I explain it to you?"

nkjv@Judges:14:17 @ Now she had wept on him the seven days while their feast lasted. And it happened on the seventh day that he told her, because she pressed him so much. Then she explained the riddle to the sons of her people.

nkjv@Judges:14:19 @ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon him mightily, and he went down to Ashkelon and killed thirty of their men, took their apparel, and gave the changes of clothing to those who had explained the riddle. So his anger was aroused, and he went back up to his father's house.

nkjv@Judges:15:1 @ After a while, in the time of wheat harvest, it happened that Samson visited his wife with a young goat. And he said, "Let me go in to my wife, into her room." But her father would not permit him to go in.

nkjv@Judges:15:2 @ Her father said, "I really thought that you thoroughly hated her; therefore I gave her to your companion. Is not her younger sister better than she? Please, take her instead."

nkjv@Judges:15:6 @ Then the Philistines said, "Who has done this?" And they answered, "Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken his wife and given her to his companion." So the Philistines came up and burned her and her father with fire.

nkjv@Judges:15:19 @ So God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out, and he drank; and his spirit returned, and he revived. Therefore he called its name En Hakkore, which is in Lehi to this day.

nkjv@Judges:16:1 @ Now Samson went to Gaza and saw a harlot there, and went in to her.

nkjv@Judges:16:2 @ When the Gazites were told, "Samson has come here!" they surrounded the place and lay in wait for him all night at the gate of the city. They were quiet all night, saying, "In the morning, when it is daylight, we will kill him."

nkjv@Judges:16:5 @ And the lords of the Philistines came up to her and said to her, "Entice him, and find out where his great strength lies, and by what means we may overpower him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and every one of us will give you eleven hundred pieces of silver."

nkjv@Judges:16:6 @ So Delilah said to Samson, "Please tell me where your great strength lies, and with what you may be bound to afflict you."

nkjv@Judges:16:7 @ And Samson said to her, "If they bind me with seven fresh bowstrings, not yet dried, then I shall become weak, and be like any other man."

nkjv@Judges:16:8 @ So the lords of the Philistines brought up to her seven fresh bowstrings, not yet dried, and she bound him with them.

nkjv@Judges:16:9 @ Now men were lying in wait, staying with her in the room. And she said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" But he broke the bowstrings as a strand of yarn breaks when it touches fire. So the secret of his strength was not known.

nkjv@Judges:16:11 @ So he said to her, "If they bind me securely with new ropes that have never been used, then I shall become weak, and be like any other man."

nkjv@Judges:16:12 @ Therefore Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them, and said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" And men were lying in wait, staying in the room. But he broke them off his arms like a thread.

nkjv@Judges:16:13 @ Delilah said to Samson, "Until now you have mocked me and told me lies. Tell me what you may be bound with." And he said to her, "If you weave the seven locks of my head into the web of the loom"--

nkjv@Judges:16:15 @ Then she said to him, "How can you say, "I love you,' when your heart is not with me? You have mocked me these three times, and have not told me where your great strength lies."

nkjv@Judges:16:16 @ And it came to pass, when she pestered him daily with her words and pressed him, so that his soul was vexed to death,

nkjv@Judges:16:17 @ that he told her all his heart, and said to her, "No razor has ever come upon my head, for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother's womb. If I am shaven, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man."

nkjv@Judges:16:18 @ When Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, "Come up once more, for he has told me all his heart." So the lords of the Philistines came up to her and brought the money in their hand.

nkjv@Judges:16:19 @ Then she lulled him to sleep on her knees, and called for a man and had him shave off the seven locks of his head. Then she began to torment him, and his strength left him.

nkjv@Judges:16:20 @ And she said, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" So he awoke from his sleep, and said, "I will go out as before, at other times, and shake myself free!" But he did not know that the LORD had departed from him.

nkjv@Judges:16:23 @ Now the lords of the Philistines gathered together to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice. And they said: "Our god has delivered into our hands Samson our enemy!"

nkjv@Judges:16:27 @ Now the temple was full of men and women. All the lords of the Philistines were there--about three thousand men and women on the roof watching while Samson performed.

nkjv@Judges:16:29 @ And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars which supported the temple, and he braced himself against them, one on his right and the other on his left.

nkjv@Judges:16:31 @ And his brothers and all his father's household came down and took him, and brought him up and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the tomb of his father Manoah. He had judged Israel twenty years.

nkjv@Judges:17:1 @ Now there was a man from the mountains of Ephraim, whose name was Micah.

nkjv@Judges:17:2 @ And he said to his mother, "The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from you, and on which you put a curse, even saying it in my ears--here is the silver with me; I took it." And his mother said, "May you be blessed by the LORD, my son!"

nkjv@Judges:17:3 @ So when he had returned the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, his mother said, "I had wholly dedicated the silver from my hand to the LORD for my son, to make a carved image and a molded image; now therefore, I will return it to you."

nkjv@Judges:17:4 @ Thus he returned the silver to his mother. Then his mother took two hundred shekels of silver and gave them to the silversmith, and he made it into a carved image and a molded image; and they were in the house of Micah.

nkjv@Judges:17:6 @ In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.

nkjv@Judges:17:7 @ Now there was a young man from Bethlehem in Judah, of the family of Judah; he was a Levite, and was staying there.

nkjv@Judges:17:8 @ The man departed from the city of Bethlehem in Judah to stay wherever he could find a place. Then he came to the mountains of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, as he journeyed.

nkjv@Judges:17:9 @ And Micah said to him, "Where do you come from?" So he said to him, "I am a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah, and I am on my way to find a place to stay."

nkjv@Judges:17:10 @ Micah said to him, "Dwell with me, and be a father and a priest to me, and I will give you ten shekels of silver per year, a suit of clothes, and your sustenance." So the Levite went in.

nkjv@Judges:18:1 @ In those days there was no king in Israel. And in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking an inheritance for itself to dwell in; for until that day their inheritance among the tribes of Israel had not fallen to them.

nkjv@Judges:18:2 @ So the children of Dan sent five men of their family from their territory, men of valor from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and search it. They said to them, "Go, search the land." So they went to the mountains of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there.

nkjv@Judges:18:3 @ While they were at the house of Micah, they recognized the voice of the young Levite. They turned aside and said to him, "Who brought you here? What are you doing in this place? What do you have here?"

nkjv@Judges:18:5 @ So they said to him, "Please inquire of God, that we may know whether the journey on which we go will be prosperous."

nkjv@Judges:18:7 @ So the five men departed and went to Laish. They saw the people who were there, how they dwelt safely, in the manner of the Sidonians, quiet and secure. There were no rulers in the land who might put them to shame for anything. They were far from the Sidonians, and they had no ties with anyone.

nkjv@Judges:18:10 @ When you go, you will come to a secure people and a large land. For God has given it into your hands, a place where there is no lack of anything that is on the earth."

nkjv@Judges:18:11 @ And six hundred men of the family of the Danites went from there, from Zorah and Eshtaol, armed with weapons of war.

nkjv@Judges:18:12 @ Then they went up and encamped in Kirjath Jearim in Judah. (Therefore they call that place Mahaneh Dan to this day. There it is, west of Kirjath Jearim.)

nkjv@Judges:18:13 @ And they passed from there to the mountains of Ephraim, and came to the house of Micah.

nkjv@Judges:18:14 @ Then the five men who had gone to spy out the country of Laish answered and said to their brethren, "Do you know that there are in these houses an ephod, household idols, a carved image, and a molded image? Now therefore, consider what you should do."

nkjv@Judges:18:15 @ So they turned aside there, and came to the house of the young Levite man--to the house of Micah--and greeted him.

nkjv@Judges:18:17 @ Then the five men who had gone to spy out the land went up. Entering there, they took the carved image, the ephod, the household idols, and the molded image. The priest stood at the entrance of the gate with the six hundred men who were armed with weapons of war.

nkjv@Judges:18:19 @ And they said to him, "Be quiet, put your hand over your mouth, and come with us; be a father and a priest to us. Is it better for you to be a priest to the household of one man, or that you be a priest to a tribe and a family in Israel?"

nkjv@Judges:18:22 @ When they were a good way from the house of Micah, the men who were in the houses near Micah's house gathered together and overtook the children of Dan.

nkjv@Judges:18:23 @ And they called out to the children of Dan. So they turned around and said to Micah, "What ails you, that you have gathered such a company?"

nkjv@Judges:18:28 @ There was no deliverer, because it was far from Sidon, and they had no ties with anyone. It was in the valley that belongs to Beth Rehob. So they rebuilt the city and dwelt there.

nkjv@Judges:18:29 @ And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel. However, the name of the city formerly was Laish.

nkjv@Judges:19:1 @ And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite staying in the remote mountains of Ephraim. He took for himself a concubine from Bethlehem in Judah.

nkjv@Judges:19:2 @ But his concubine played the harlot against him, and went away from him to her father's house at Bethlehem in Judah, and was there four whole months.

nkjv@Judges:19:3 @ Then her husband arose and went after her, to speak kindly to her and bring her back, having his servant and a couple of donkeys with him. So she brought him into her father's house; and when the father of the young woman saw him, he was glad to meet him.

nkjv@Judges:19:4 @ Now his father-in-law, the young woman's father, detained him; and he stayed with him three days. So they ate and drank and lodged there.

nkjv@Judges:19:5 @ Then it came to pass on the fourth day that they arose early in the morning, and he stood to depart; but the young woman's father said to his son-in-law, "Refresh your heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward go your way."

nkjv@Judges:19:6 @ So they sat down, and the two of them ate and drank together. Then the young woman's father said to the man, "Please be content to stay all night, and let your heart be merry."

nkjv@Judges:19:7 @ And when the man stood to depart, his father-in-law urged him; so he lodged there again.

nkjv@Judges:19:8 @ Then he arose early in the morning on the fifth day to depart, but the young woman's father said, "Please refresh your heart." So they delayed until afternoon; and both of them ate.

nkjv@Judges:19:9 @ And when the man stood to depart--he and his concubine and his servant--his father-in-law, the young woman's father, said to him, "Look, the day is now drawing toward evening; please spend the night. See, the day is coming to an end; lodge here, that your heart may be merry. Tomorrow go your way early, so that you may get home."

nkjv@Judges:19:12 @ But his master said to him, "We will not turn aside here into a city of foreigners, who are not of the children of Israel; we will go on to Gibeah."

nkjv@Judges:19:15 @ They turned aside there to go in to lodge in Gibeah. And when he went in, he sat down in the open square of the city, for no one would take them into his house to spend the night.

nkjv@Judges:19:16 @ Just then an old man came in from his work in the field at evening, who also was from the mountains of Ephraim; he was staying in Gibeah, whereas the men of the place were Benjamites.

nkjv@Judges:19:17 @ And when he raised his eyes, he saw the traveler in the open square of the city; and the old man said, "Where are you going, and where do you come from?"

nkjv@Judges:19:18 @ So he said to him, "We are passing from Bethlehem in Judah toward the remote mountains of Ephraim; I am from there. I went to Bethlehem in Judah; now I am going to the house of the LORD. But there is no one who will take me into his house,

nkjv@Judges:19:19 @ although we have both straw and fodder for our donkeys, and bread and wine for myself, for your female servant, and for the young man who is with your servant; there is no lack of anything."

nkjv@Judges:19:24 @ Look, here is my virgin daughter and the man's concubine; let me bring them out now. Humble them, and do with them as you please; but to this man do not do such a vile thing!"

nkjv@Judges:19:25 @ But the men would not heed him. So the man took his concubine and brought her out to them. And they knew her and abused her all night until morning; and when the day began to break, they let her go.

nkjv@Judges:19:26 @ Then the woman came as the day was dawning, and fell down at the door of the man's house where her master was, till it was light.

nkjv@Judges:19:27 @ When her master arose in the morning, and opened the doors of the house and went out to go his way, there was his concubine, fallen at the door of the house with her hands on the threshold.

nkjv@Judges:19:28 @ And he said to her, "Get up and let us be going." But there was no answer. So the man lifted her onto the donkey; and the man got up and went to his place.

nkjv@Judges:19:29 @ When he entered his house he took a knife, laid hold of his concubine, and divided her into twelve pieces, limb by limb, and sent her throughout all the territory of Israel.

nkjv@Judges:20:1 @ So all the children of Israel came out, from Dan to Beersheba, as well as from the land of Gilead, and the congregation gathered together as one man before the LORD at Mizpah.

nkjv@Judges:20:6 @ So I took hold of my concubine, cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the territory of the inheritance of Israel, because they committed lewdness and outrage in Israel.

nkjv@Judges:20:7 @ Look! All of you are children of Israel; give your advice and counsel here and now!"

nkjv@Judges:20:11 @ So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, united together as one man.

nkjv@Judges:20:13 @ Now therefore, deliver up the men, the perverted men who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death and remove the evil from Israel!" But the children of Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brethren, the children of Israel.

nkjv@Judges:20:22 @ And the people, that is, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves and again formed the battle line at the place where they had put themselves in array on the first day.

nkjv@Judges:20:39 @ whereupon the men of Israel would turn in battle. Now Benjamin had begun to strike and kill about thirty of the men of Israel. For they said, "Surely they are defeated before us, as in the first battle."

nkjv@Judges:20:40 @ But when the cloud began to rise from the city in a column of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them, and there was the whole city going up in smoke to heaven.

nkjv@Judges:20:42 @ Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel in the direction of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them, and whoever came out of the cities they destroyed in their midst.

nkjv@Judges:21:2 @ Then the people came to the house of God, and remained there before God till evening. They lifted up their voices and wept bitterly,

nkjv@Judges:21:3 @ and said, "O LORD God of Israel, why has this come to pass in Israel, that today there should be one tribe missing in Israel?"

nkjv@Judges:21:4 @ So it was, on the next morning, that the people rose early and built an altar there, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings.

nkjv@Judges:21:5 @ The children of Israel said, "Who is there among all the tribes of Israel who did not come up with the assembly to the LORD?" For they had made a great oath concerning anyone who had not come up to the LORD at Mizpah, saying, "He shall surely be put to death."

nkjv@Judges:21:6 @ And the children of Israel grieved for Benjamin their brother, and said, "One tribe is cut off from Israel today.

nkjv@Judges:21:8 @ And they said, "What one is there from the tribes of Israel who did not come up to Mizpah to the LORD?" And, in fact, no one had come to the camp from Jabesh Gilead to the assembly.

nkjv@Judges:21:9 @ For when the people were counted, indeed, not one of the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead was there.

nkjv@Judges:21:10 @ So the congregation sent out there twelve thousand of their most valiant men, and commanded them, saying, "Go and strike the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead with the edge of the sword, including the women and children.

nkjv@Judges:21:17 @ And they said, "There must be an inheritance for the survivors of Benjamin, that a tribe may not be destroyed from Israel.

nkjv@Judges:21:19 @ Then they said, "In fact, there is a yearly feast of the LORD in Shiloh, which is north of Bethel, on the east side of the highway that goes up from Bethel to Shechem, and south of Lebonah."

nkjv@Judges:21:20 @ Therefore they instructed the children of Benjamin, saying, "Go, lie in wait in the vineyards,

nkjv@Judges:21:22 @ Then it shall be, when their fathers or their brothers come to us to complain, that we will say to them, "Be kind to them for our sakes, because we did not take a wife for any of them in the war; for it is not as though you have given the women to them at this time, making yourselves guilty of your oath."'

nkjv@Judges:21:23 @ And the children of Benjamin did so; they took enough wives for their number from those who danced, whom they caught. Then they went and returned to their inheritance, and they rebuilt the cities and dwelt in them.

nkjv@Judges:21:24 @ So the children of Israel departed from there at that time, every man to his tribe and family; they went out from there, every man to his inheritance.

nkjv@Judges:21:25 @ In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what was right in his own eyes.

nkjv@Ruth:1:1 @ Now it came to pass, in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man of Bethlehem, Judah, went to dwell in the country of Moab, he and his wife and his two sons.

nkjv@Ruth:1:2 @ The name of the man was Elimelech, the name of his wife was Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion--Ephrathites of Bethlehem, Judah. And they went to the country of Moab and remained there.

nkjv@Ruth:1:3 @ Then Elimelech, Naomi's husband, died; and she was left, and her two sons.

nkjv@Ruth:1:4 @ Now they took wives of the women of Moab: the name of the one was Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth. And they dwelt there about ten years.

nkjv@Ruth:1:5 @ Then both Mahlon and Chilion also died; so the woman survived her two sons and her husband.

nkjv@Ruth:1:6 @ Then she arose with her daughters-in-law that she might return from the country of Moab, for she had heard in the country of Moab that the LORD had visited His people by giving them bread.

nkjv@Ruth:1:7 @ Therefore she went out from the place where she was, and her two daughters-in-law with her; and they went on the way to return to the land of Judah.

nkjv@Ruth:1:8 @ And Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, "Go, return each to her mother's house. The LORD deal kindly with you, as you have dealt with the dead and with me.

nkjv@Ruth:1:9 @ The LORD grant that you may find rest, each in the house of her husband." So she kissed them, and they lifted up their voices and wept.

nkjv@Ruth:1:10 @ And they said to her, "Surely we will return with you to your people."

nkjv@Ruth:1:11 @ But Naomi said, "Turn back, my daughters; why will you go with me? Are there still sons in my womb, that they may be your husbands?

nkjv@Ruth:1:14 @ Then they lifted up their voices and wept again; and Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, but Ruth clung to her.

nkjv@Ruth:1:15 @ And she said, "Look, your sister-in-law has gone back to her people and to her gods; return after your sister-in-law."

nkjv@Ruth:1:16 @ But Ruth said: "Entreat me not to leave you, Or to turn back from following after you; For wherever you go, I will go; And wherever you lodge, I will lodge; Your people shall be my people, And your God, my God.

nkjv@Ruth:1:17 @ Where you die, I will die, And there will I be buried. The LORD do so to me, and more also, If anything but death parts you and me."

nkjv@Ruth:1:18 @ When she saw that she was determined to go with her, she stopped speaking to her.

nkjv@Ruth:1:22 @ So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess her daughter-in-law with her, who returned from the country of Moab. Now they came to Bethlehem at the beginning of barley harvest.

nkjv@Ruth:2:1 @ There was a relative of Naomi's husband, a man of great wealth, of the family of Elimelech. His name was Boaz.

nkjv@Ruth:2:2 @ So Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, "Please let me go to the field, and glean heads of grain after him in whose sight I may find favor." And she said to her, "Go, my daughter."

nkjv@Ruth:2:7 @ And she said, "Please let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves.' So she came and has continued from morning until now, though she rested a little in the house."

nkjv@Ruth:2:8 @ Then Boaz said to Ruth, "You will listen, my daughter, will you not? Do not go to glean in another field, nor go from here, but stay close by my young women.

nkjv@Ruth:2:10 @ So she fell on her face, bowed down to the ground, and said to him, "Why have I found favor in your eyes, that you should take notice of me, since I am a foreigner?"

nkjv@Ruth:2:11 @ And Boaz answered and said to her, "It has been fully reported to me, all that you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father and your mother and the land of your birth, and have come to a people whom you did not know before.

nkjv@Ruth:2:14 @ Now Boaz said to her at mealtime, "Come here, and eat of the bread, and dip your piece of bread in the vinegar." So she sat beside the reapers, and he passed parched grain to her; and she ate and was satisfied, and kept some back.

nkjv@Ruth:2:15 @ And when she rose up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, "Let her glean even among the sheaves, and do not reproach her.

nkjv@Ruth:2:16 @ Also let grain from the bundles fall purposely for her; leave it that she may glean, and do not rebuke her."

nkjv@Ruth:2:18 @ Then she took it up and went into the city, and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned. So she brought out and gave to her what she had kept back after she had been satisfied.

nkjv@Ruth:2:19 @ And her mother-in-law said to her, "Where have you gleaned today? And where did you work? Blessed be the one who took notice of you." So she told her mother-in-law with whom she had worked, and said, "The man's name with whom I worked today is Boaz."

nkjv@Ruth:2:20 @ Then Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, "Blessed be he of the LORD, who has not forsaken His kindness to the living and the dead!" And Naomi said to her, "This man is a relation of ours, one of our close relatives."

nkjv@Ruth:2:22 @ And Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, "It is good, my daughter, that you go out with his young women, and that people do not meet you in any other field."

nkjv@Ruth:2:23 @ So she stayed close by the young women of Boaz, to glean until the end of barley harvest and wheat harvest; and she dwelt with her mother-in-law.

nkjv@Ruth:3:1 @ Then Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, "My daughter, shall I not seek security for you, that it may be well with you?

nkjv@Ruth:3:3 @ Therefore wash yourself and anoint yourself, put on your best garment and go down to the threshing floor; but do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking.

nkjv@Ruth:3:4 @ Then it shall be, when he lies down, that you shall notice the place where he lies; and you shall go in, uncover his feet, and lie down; and he will tell you what you should do."

nkjv@Ruth:3:5 @ And she said to her, "All that you say to me I will do."

nkjv@Ruth:3:6 @ So she went down to the threshing floor and did according to all that her mother-in-law instructed her.

nkjv@Ruth:3:8 @ Now it happened at midnight that the man was startled, and turned himself; and there, a woman was lying at his feet.

nkjv@Ruth:3:10 @ Then he said, "Blessed are you of the LORD, my daughter! For you have shown more kindness at the end than at the beginning, in that you did not go after young men, whether poor or rich.

nkjv@Ruth:3:12 @ Now it is true that I am a close relative; however, there is a relative closer than I.

nkjv@Ruth:3:14 @ So she lay at his feet until morning, and she arose before one could recognize another. Then he said, "Do not let it be known that the woman came to the threshing floor."

nkjv@Ruth:3:15 @ Also he said, "Bring the shawl that is on you and hold it." And when she held it, he measured six ephahs of barley, and laid it on her. Then she went into the city.

nkjv@Ruth:3:16 @ When she came to her mother-in-law, she said, "Is that you, my daughter?" Then she told her all that the man had done for her.

nkjv@Ruth:3:17 @ And she said, "These six ephahs of barley he gave me; for he said to me, "Do not go empty-handed to your mother-in-law."'

nkjv@Ruth:4:1 @ Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there; and behold, the close relative of whom Boaz had spoken came by. So Boaz said, "Come aside, friend, sit down here." So he came aside and sat down.

nkjv@Ruth:4:2 @ And he took ten men of the elders of the city, and said, "Sit down here." So they sat down.

nkjv@Ruth:4:3 @ Then he said to the close relative, "Naomi, who has come back from the country of Moab, sold the piece of land which belonged to our brother Elimelech.

nkjv@Ruth:4:4 @ And I thought to inform you, saying, "Buy it back in the presence of the inhabitants and the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know; for there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you."' And he said, "I will redeem it."

nkjv@Ruth:4:5 @ Then Boaz said, "On the day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you must also buy it from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to perpetuate the name of the dead through his inheritance."

nkjv@Ruth:4:6 @ And the close relative said, "I cannot redeem it for myself, lest I ruin my own inheritance. You redeem my right of redemption for yourself, for I cannot redeem it."

nkjv@Ruth:4:7 @ Now this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning redeeming and exchanging, to confirm anything: one man took off his sandal and gave it to the other, and this was a confirmation in Israel.

nkjv@Ruth:4:8 @ Therefore the close relative said to Boaz, "Buy it for yourself." So he took off his sandal.

nkjv@Ruth:4:10 @ Moreover, Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahlon, I have acquired as my wife, to perpetuate the name of the dead through his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brethren and from his position at the gate. You are witnesses this day."

nkjv@Ruth:4:13 @ So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and when he went in to her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bore a son.

nkjv@Ruth:4:15 @ And may he be to you a restorer of life and a nourisher of your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you, who is better to you than seven sons, has borne him."

nkjv@Ruth:4:16 @ Then Naomi took the child and laid him on her bosom, and became a nurse to him.

nkjv@Ruth:4:17 @ Also the neighbor women gave him a name, saying, "There is a son born to Naomi." And they called his name Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:1 @ Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim Zophim, of the mountains of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:2 @ And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:3 @ This man went up from his city yearly to worship and sacrifice to the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. Also the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:4 @ And whenever the time came for Elkanah to make an offering, he would give portions to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and daughters.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:5 @ But to Hannah he would give a double portion, for he loved Hannah, although the LORD had closed her womb.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:6 @ And her rival also provoked her severely, to make her miserable, because the LORD had closed her womb.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:7 @ So it was, year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, that she provoked her; therefore she wept and did not eat.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:8 @ Then Elkanah her husband said to her, "Hannah, why do you weep? Why do you not eat? And why is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten sons?"

nkjv@1Samuel:1:12 @ And it happened, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli watched her mouth.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:13 @ Now Hannah spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she was drunk.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:14 @ So Eli said to her, "How long will you be drunk? Put your wine away from you!"

nkjv@1Samuel:1:15 @ But Hannah answered and said, "No, my lord, I am a woman of sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor intoxicating drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:18 @ And she said, "Let your maidservant find favor in your sight." So the woman went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:19 @ Then they rose early in the morning and worshiped before the LORD, and returned and came to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:22 @ But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, "Not until the child is weaned; then I will take him, that he may appear before the LORD and remain there forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:1:23 @ So Elkanah her husband said to her, "Do what seems best to you; wait until you have weaned him. Only let the LORD establish His word." Then the woman stayed and nursed her son until she had weaned him.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:24 @ Now when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bulls, one ephah of flour, and a skin of wine, and brought him to the house of the LORD in Shiloh. And the child was young.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:26 @ And she said, "O my lord! As your soul lives, my lord, I am the woman who stood by you here, praying to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:28 @ Therefore I also have lent him to the LORD; as long as he lives he shall be lent to the LORD." So they worshiped the LORD there.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:2 @ "No one is holy like the LORD, For there is none besides You, Nor is there any rock like our God.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:8 @ He raises the poor from the dust And lifts the beggar from the ash heap, To set them among princes And make them inherit the throne of glory. "For the pillars of the earth are the LORD's, And He has set the world upon them.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:14 @ Then he would thrust it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; and the priest would take for himself all that the fleshhook brought up. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:17 @ Therefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD, for men abhorred the offering of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:19 @ Moreover his mother used to make him a little robe, and bring it to him year by year when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:25 @ If one man sins against another, God will judge him. But if a man sins against the LORD, who will intercede for him?" Nevertheless they did not heed the voice of their father, because the LORD desired to kill them.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:27 @ Then a man of God came to Eli and said to him, "Thus says the LORD: "Did I not clearly reveal Myself to the house of your father when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?

nkjv@1Samuel:2:28 @ Did I not choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be My priest, to offer upon My altar, to burn incense, and to wear an ephod before Me? And did I not give to the house of your father all the offerings of the children of Israel made by fire?

nkjv@1Samuel:2:30 @ Therefore the LORD God of Israel says: "I said indeed that your house and the house of your father would walk before Me forever.' But now the LORD says: "Far be it from Me; for those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:31 @ Behold, the days are coming that I will cut off your arm and the arm of your father's house, so that there will not be an old man in your house.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:32 @ And you will see an enemy in My dwelling place, despite all the good which God does for Israel. And there shall not be an old man in your house forever.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:1 @ Now the boy Samuel ministered to the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was rare in those days; there was no widespread revelation.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:3 @ and before the lamp of God went out in the tabernacle of the LORD where the ark of God was, and while Samuel was lying down,

nkjv@1Samuel:3:4 @ that the LORD called Samuel. And he answered, "Here I am!"

nkjv@1Samuel:3:5 @ So he ran to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." And he said, "I did not call; lie down again." And he went and lay down.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:6 @ Then the LORD called yet again, "Samuel!" So Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you called me." He answered, "I did not call, my son; lie down again."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:8 @ And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. So he arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you did call me." Then Eli perceived that the LORD had called the boy.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:9 @ Therefore Eli said to Samuel, "Go, lie down; and it shall be, if He calls you, that you must say, "Speak, LORD, for Your servant hears."' So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:10 @ Now the LORD came and stood and called as at other times, "Samuel! Samuel!" And Samuel answered, "Speak, for Your servant hears."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:14 @ And therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be atoned for by sacrifice or offering forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:16 @ Then Eli called Samuel and said, "Samuel, my son!" He answered, "Here I am."

nkjv@1Samuel:4:4 @ So the people sent to Shiloh, that they might bring from there the ark of the covenant of the LORD of hosts, who dwells between the cherubim. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:10 @ So the Philistines fought, and Israel was defeated, and every man fled to his tent. There was a very great slaughter, and there fell of Israel thirty thousand foot soldiers.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:13 @ Now when he came, there was Eli, sitting on a seat by the wayside watching, for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city and told it, all the city cried out.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:17 @ So the messenger answered and said, "Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been a great slaughter among the people. Also your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead; and the ark of God has been captured."

nkjv@1Samuel:4:19 @ Now his daughter-in-law, Phinehas' wife, was with child, due to be delivered; and when she heard the news that the ark of God was captured, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and gave birth, for her labor pains came upon her.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:20 @ And about the time of her death the women who stood by her said to her, "Do not fear, for you have borne a son." But she did not answer, nor did she regard it.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:21 @ Then she named the child Ichabod, saying, "The glory has departed from Israel!" because the ark of God had been captured and because of her father-in-law and her husband.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:3 @ And when the people of Ashdod arose early in the morning, there was Dagon, fallen on its face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. So they took Dagon and set it in its place again.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:4 @ And when they arose early the next morning, there was Dagon, fallen on its face to the ground before the ark of the LORD. The head of Dagon and both the palms of its hands were broken off on the threshold; only Dagon's torso was left of it.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:5 @ Therefore neither the priests of Dagon nor any who come into Dagon's house tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:8 @ Therefore they sent and gathered to themselves all the lords of the Philistines, and said, "What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel?" And they answered, "Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried away to Gath." So they carried the ark of the God of Israel away.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:10 @ Therefore they sent the ark of God to Ekron. So it was, as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, "They have brought the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people!"

nkjv@1Samuel:5:11 @ So they sent and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, "Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its own place, so that it does not kill us and our people." For there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:5 @ Therefore you shall make images of your tumors and images of your rats that ravage the land, and you shall give glory to the God of Israel; perhaps He will lighten His hand from you, from your gods, and from your land.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:7 @ Now therefore, make a new cart, take two milk cows which have never been yoked, and hitch the cows to the cart; and take their calves home, away from them.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:14 @ Then the cart came into the field of Joshua of Beth Shemesh, and stood there; a large stone was there. So they split the wood of the cart and offered the cows as a burnt offering to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:2 @ So it was that the ark remained in Kirjath Jearim a long time; it was there twenty years. And all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:5 @ And Samuel said, "Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray to the LORD for you."

nkjv@1Samuel:7:6 @ So they gathered together at Mizpah, drew water, and poured it out before the LORD. And they fasted that day, and said there, "We have sinned against the LORD." And Samuel judged the children of Israel at Mizpah.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:7 @ Now when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel had gathered together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard of it, they were afraid of the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:14 @ Then the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron to Gath; and Israel recovered its territory from the hands of the Philistines. Also there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:17 @ But he always returned to Ramah, for his home was there. There he judged Israel, and there he built an altar to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:4 @ Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah,

nkjv@1Samuel:8:8 @ According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt, even to this day--with which they have forsaken Me and served other gods--so they are doing to you also.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:9 @ Now therefore, heed their voice. However, you shall solemnly forewarn them, and show them the behavior of the king who will reign over them."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:1 @ There was a man of Benjamin whose name was Kish the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, a mighty man of power.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:2 @ And he had a choice and handsome son whose name was Saul. There was not a more handsome person than he among the children of Israel. From his shoulders upward he was taller than any of the people.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:3 @ Now the donkeys of Kish, Saul's father, were lost. And Kish said to his son Saul, "Please take one of the servants with you, and arise, go and look for the donkeys."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:4 @ So he passed through the mountains of Ephraim and through the land of Shalisha, but they did not find them. Then they passed through the land of Shaalim, and they were not there. Then he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they did not find them.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:5 @ When they had come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant who was with him, "Come, let us return, lest my father cease caring about the donkeys and become worried about us."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:6 @ And he said to him, "Look now, there is in this city a man of God, and he is an honorable man; all that he says surely comes to pass. So let us go there; perhaps he can show us the way that we should go."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:7 @ Then Saul said to his servant, "But look, if we go, what shall we bring the man? For the bread in our vessels is all gone, and there is no present to bring to the man of God. What do we have?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:8 @ And the servant answered Saul again and said, "Look, I have here at hand one-fourth of a shekel of silver. I will give that to the man of God, to tell us our way."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:10 @ Then Saul said to his servant, "Well said; come, let us go." So they went to the city where the man of God was.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:11 @ As they went up the hill to the city, they met some young women going out to draw water, and said to them, "Is the seer here?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:12 @ And they answered them and said, "Yes, there he is, just ahead of you. Hurry now; for today he came to this city, because there is a sacrifice of the people today on the high place.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:13 @ As soon as you come into the city, you will surely find him before he goes up to the high place to eat. For the people will not eat until he comes, because he must bless the sacrifice; afterward those who are invited will eat. Now therefore, go up, for about this time you will find him."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:14 @ So they went up to the city. As they were coming into the city, there was Samuel, coming out toward them on his way up to the high place.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:17 @ So when Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said to him, "There he is, the man of whom I spoke to you. This one shall reign over My people."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:18 @ Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, "Please tell me, where is the seer's house?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:20 @ But as for your donkeys that were lost three days ago, do not be anxious about them, for they have been found. And on whom is all the desire of Israel? Is it not on you and on all your father's house?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:22 @ Now Samuel took Saul and his servant and brought them into the hall, and had them sit in the place of honor among those who were invited; there were about thirty persons.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:24 @ So the cook took up the thigh with its upper part and set it before Saul. And Samuel said, "Here it is, what was kept back. It was set apart for you. Eat; for until this time it has been kept for you, since I said I invited the people." So Saul ate with Samuel that day.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:27 @ As they were going down to the outskirts of the city, Samuel said to Saul, "Tell the servant to go on ahead of us." And he went on. "But you stand here awhile, that I may announce to you the word of God."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:1 @ Then Samuel took a flask of oil and poured it on his head, and kissed him and said: "Is it not because the LORD has anointed you commander over His inheritance?

nkjv@1Samuel:10:2 @ When you have departed from me today, you will find two men by Rachel's tomb in the territory of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to you, "The donkeys which you went to look for have been found. And now your father has ceased caring about the donkeys and is worrying about you, saying, "What shall I do about my son?"'

nkjv@1Samuel:10:3 @ Then you shall go on forward from there and come to the terebinth tree of Tabor. There three men going up to God at Bethel will meet you, one carrying three young goats, another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a skin of wine.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:5 @ After that you shall come to the hill of God where the Philistine garrison is. And it will happen, when you have come there to the city, that you will meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place with a stringed instrument, a tambourine, a flute, and a harp before them; and they will be prophesying.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:6 @ Then the Spirit of the LORD will come upon you, and you will prophesy with them and be turned into another man.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:9 @ So it was, when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, that God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:10 @ When they came there to the hill, there was a group of prophets to meet him; then the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:11 @ And it happened, when all who knew him formerly saw that he indeed prophesied among the prophets, that the people said to one another, "What is this that has come upon the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?"

nkjv@1Samuel:10:12 @ Then a man from there answered and said, "But who is their father?" Therefore it became a proverb: "Is Saul also among the prophets?"

nkjv@1Samuel:10:14 @ Then Saul's uncle said to him and his servant, "Where did you go?" So he said, "To look for the donkeys. When we saw that they were nowhere to be found, we went to Samuel."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:17 @ Then Samuel called the people together to the LORD at Mizpah,

nkjv@1Samuel:10:19 @ But you have today rejected your God, who Himself saved you from all your adversities and your tribulations; and you have said to Him, "No, set a king over us!' Now therefore, present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes and by your clans."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:22 @ Therefore they inquired of the LORD further, "Has the man come here yet?" And the LORD answered, "There he is, hidden among the equipment."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:23 @ So they ran and brought him from there; and when he stood among the people, he was taller than any of the people from his shoulders upward.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:24 @ And Samuel said to all the people, "Do you see him whom the LORD has chosen, that there is no one like him among all the people?" So all the people shouted and said, "Long live the king!"

nkjv@1Samuel:11:3 @ Then the elders of Jabesh said to him, "Hold off for seven days, that we may send messengers to all the territory of Israel. And then, if there is no one to save us, we will come out to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:5 @ Now there was Saul, coming behind the herd from the field; and Saul said, "What troubles the people, that they weep?" And they told him the words of the men of Jabesh.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:10 @ Therefore the men of Jabesh said, "Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you may do with us whatever seems good to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:11 @ So it was, on the next day, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and killed Ammonites until the heat of the day. And it happened that those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:14 @ Then Samuel said to the people, "Come, let us go to Gilgal and renew the kingdom there."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:15 @ So all the people went to Gilgal, and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal. There they made sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD, and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:2 @ And now here is the king, walking before you; and I am old and grayheaded, and look, my sons are with you. I have walked before you from my childhood to this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:3 @ Here I am. Witness against me before the LORD and before His anointed: Whose ox have I taken, or whose donkey have I taken, or whom have I cheated? Whom have I oppressed, or from whose hand have I received any bribe with which to blind my eyes? I will restore it to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:12:6 @ Then Samuel said to the people, "It is the LORD who raised up Moses and Aaron, and who brought your fathers up from the land of Egypt.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:7 @ Now therefore, stand still, that I may reason with you before the LORD concerning all the righteous acts of the LORD which He did to you and your fathers:

nkjv@1Samuel:12:8 @ When Jacob had gone into Egypt, and your fathers cried out to the LORD, then the LORD sent Moses and Aaron, who brought your fathers out of Egypt and made them dwell in this place.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:13 @ "Now therefore, here is the king whom you have chosen and whom you have desired. And take note, the LORD has set a king over you.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:15 @ However, if you do not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then the hand of the LORD will be against you, as it was against your fathers.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:16 @ "Now therefore, stand and see this great thing which the LORD will do before your eyes:

nkjv@1Samuel:13:4 @ Now all Israel heard it said that Saul had attacked a garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel had also become an abomination to the Philistines. And the people were called together to Saul at Gilgal.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:5 @ Then the Philistines gathered together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the seashore in multitude. And they came up and encamped in Michmash, to the east of Beth Aven.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:9 @ So Saul said, "Bring a burnt offering and peace offerings here to me." And he offered the burnt offering.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:11 @ And Samuel said, "What have you done?" Saul said, "When I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered together at Michmash,

nkjv@1Samuel:13:12 @ then I said, "The Philistines will now come down on me at Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to the LORD.' Therefore I felt compelled, and offered a burnt offering."

nkjv@1Samuel:13:18 @ another company turned to the road to Beth Horon, and another company turned to the road of the border that overlooks the Valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:19 @ Now there was no blacksmith to be found throughout all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, "Lest the Hebrews make swords or spears."

nkjv@1Samuel:13:22 @ So it came about, on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan. But they were found with Saul and Jonathan his son.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:1 @ Now it happened one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man who bore his armor, "Come, let us go over to the Philistines' garrison that is on the other side." But he did not tell his father.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:3 @ Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the LORD's priest in Shiloh, was wearing an ephod. But the people did not know that Jonathan had gone.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:4 @ Between the passes, by which Jonathan sought to go over to the Philistines' garrison, there was a sharp rock on one side and a sharp rock on the other side. And the name of one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:5 @ The front of one faced northward opposite Michmash, and the other southward opposite Gibeah.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:7 @ So his armorbearer said to him, "Do all that is in your heart. Go then; here I am with you, according to your heart."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:11 @ So both of them showed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines. And the Philistines said, "Look, the Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:15 @ And there was trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. The garrison and the raiders also trembled; and the earth quaked, so that it was a very great trembling.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:16 @ Now the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and there was the multitude, melting away; and they went here and there.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:17 @ Then Saul said to the people who were with him, "Now call the roll and see who has gone from us." And when they had called the roll, surprisingly, Jonathan and his armorbearer were not there.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:18 @ And Saul said to Ahijah, "Bring the ark of God here" (for at that time the ark of God was with the children of Israel).

nkjv@1Samuel:14:20 @ Then Saul and all the people who were with him assembled, and they went to the battle; and indeed every man's sword was against his neighbor, and there was very great confusion.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:25 @ Now all the people of the land came to a forest; and there was honey on the ground.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:26 @ And when the people had come into the woods, there was the honey, dripping; but no one put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:27 @ But Jonathan had not heard his father charge the people with the oath; therefore he stretched out the end of the rod that was in his hand and dipped it in a honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his countenance brightened.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:28 @ Then one of the people said, "Your father strictly charged the people with an oath, saying, "Cursed is the man who eats food this day."' And the people were faint.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:29 @ But Jonathan said, "My father has troubled the land. Look now, how my countenance has brightened because I tasted a little of this honey.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:30 @ How much better if the people had eaten freely today of the spoil of their enemies which they found! For now would there not have been a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?"

nkjv@1Samuel:14:33 @ Then they told Saul, saying, "Look, the people are sinning against the LORD by eating with the blood!" So he said, "You have dealt treacherously; roll a large stone to me this day."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:34 @ Then Saul said, "Disperse yourselves among the people, and say to them, "Bring me here every man's ox and every man's sheep, slaughter them here, and eat; and do not sin against the LORD by eating with the blood."' So every one of the people brought his ox with him that night, and slaughtered it there.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:36 @ Now Saul said, "Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and plunder them until the morning light; and let us not leave a man of them." And they said, "Do whatever seems good to you." Then the priest said, "Let us draw near to God here."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:38 @ And Saul said, "Come over here, all you chiefs of the people, and know and see what this sin was today.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:40 @ Then he said to all Israel, "You be on one side, and my son Jonathan and I will be on the other side." And the people said to Saul, "Do what seems good to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:41 @ Therefore Saul said to the LORD God of Israel, "Give a perfect lot." So Saul and Jonathan were taken, but the people escaped.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:47 @ So Saul established his sovereignty over Israel, and fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, against the people of Ammon, against Edom, against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines. Wherever he turned, he harassed them.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:48 @ And he gathered an army and attacked the Amalekites, and delivered Israel from the hands of those who plundered them.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:51 @ Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:52 @ Now there was fierce war with the Philistines all the days of Saul. And when Saul saw any strong man or any valiant man, he took him for himself.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:1 @ Samuel also said to Saul, "The LORD sent me to anoint you king over His people, over Israel. Now therefore, heed the voice of the words of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:4 @ So Saul gathered the people together and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand foot soldiers and ten thousand men of Judah.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:25 @ Now therefore, please pardon my sin, and return with me, that I may worship the LORD."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:32 @ Then Samuel said, "Bring Agag king of the Amalekites here to me." So Agag came to him cautiously. And Agag said, "Surely the bitterness of death is past."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:33 @ But Samuel said, "As your sword has made women childless, so shall your mother be childless among women." And Samuel hacked Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:8 @ So Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:9 @ Then Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:11 @ And Samuel said to Jesse, "Are all the young men here?" Then he said, "There remains yet the youngest, and there he is, keeping the sheep." And Samuel said to Jesse, "Send and bring him. For we will not sit down till he comes here."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:13 @ Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:19 @ Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, "Send me your son David, who is with the sheep."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:1 @ Now the Philistines gathered their armies together to battle, and were gathered at Sochoh, which belongs to Judah; they encamped between Sochoh and Azekah, in Ephes Dammim.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:2 @ And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and they encamped in the Valley of Elah, and drew up in battle array against the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:3 @ The Philistines stood on a mountain on one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side, with a valley between them.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:10 @ And the Philistine said, "I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:15 @ But David occasionally went and returned from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:17 @ Then Jesse said to his son David, "Take now for your brothers an ephah of this dried grain and these ten loaves, and run to your brothers at the camp.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:18 @ And carry these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand, and see how your brothers fare, and bring back news of them."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:22 @ And David left his supplies in the hand of the supply keeper, ran to the army, and came and greeted his brothers.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:23 @ Then as he talked with them, there was the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, coming up from the armies of the Philistines; and he spoke according to the same words. So David heard them.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:25 @ So the men of Israel said, "Have you seen this man who has come up? Surely he has come up to defy Israel; and it shall be that the man who kills him the king will enrich with great riches, will give him his daughter, and give his father's house exemption from taxes in Israel."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:28 @ Now Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab's anger was aroused against David, and he said, "Why did you come down here? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the insolence of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:29 @ And David said, "What have I done now? Is there not a cause?"

nkjv@1Samuel:17:30 @ Then he turned from him toward another and said the same thing; and these people answered him as the first ones did.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:34 @ But David said to Saul, "Your servant used to keep his father's sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock,

nkjv@1Samuel:17:40 @ Then he took his staff in his hand; and he chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag, in a pouch which he had, and his sling was in his hand. And he drew near to the Philistine.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:46 @ This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:50 @ So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him. But there was no sword in the hand of David.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:51 @ Therefore David ran and stood over the Philistine, took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him, and cut off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:2 @ Saul took him that day, and would not let him go home to his father's house anymore.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:5 @ So David went out wherever Saul sent him, and behaved wisely. And Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:10 @ And it happened on the next day that the distressing spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied inside the house. So David played music with his hand, as at other times; but there was a spear in Saul's hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:13 @ Therefore Saul removed him from his presence, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:15 @ Therefore, when Saul saw that he behaved very wisely, he was afraid of him.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:17 @ Then Saul said to David, "Here is my older daughter Merab; I will give her to you as a wife. Only be valiant for me, and fight the LORD's battles." For Saul thought, "Let my hand not be against him, but let the hand of the Philistines be against him."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:18 @ So David said to Saul, "Who am I, and what is my life or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?"

nkjv@1Samuel:18:21 @ So Saul said, "I will give her to him, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." Therefore Saul said to David a second time, "You shall be my son-in-law today."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:22 @ And Saul commanded his servants, "Communicate with David secretly, and say, "Look, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you. Now therefore, become the king's son-in-law."'

nkjv@1Samuel:18:27 @ therefore David arose and went, he and his men, and killed two hundred men of the Philistines. And David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full count to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him Michal his daughter as a wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:2 @ So Jonathan told David, saying, "My father Saul seeks to kill you. Therefore please be on your guard until morning, and stay in a secret place and hide.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:3 @ And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will speak with my father about you. Then what I observe, I will tell you."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:4 @ Thus Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father, and said to him, "Let not the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:8 @ And there was war again; and David went out and fought with the Philistines, and struck them with a mighty blow, and they fled from him.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:16 @ And when the messengers had come in, there was the image in the bed, with a cover of goats' hair for his head.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:21 @ And when Saul was told, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. Then Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:22 @ Then he also went to Ramah, and came to the great well that is at Sechu. So he asked, and said, "Where are Samuel and David?" And someone said, "Indeed they are at Naioth in Ramah."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:23 @ So he went there to Naioth in Ramah. Then the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on and prophesied until he came to Naioth in Ramah.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:24 @ And he also stripped off his clothes and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:1 @ Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and went and said to Jonathan, "What have I done? What is my iniquity, and what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:2 @ So Jonathan said to him, "By no means! You shall not die! Indeed, my father will do nothing either great or small without first telling me. And why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so!"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:3 @ Then David took an oath again, and said, "Your father certainly knows that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said, "Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved.' But truly, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:6 @ If your father misses me at all, then say, "David earnestly asked permission of me that he might run over to Bethlehem, his city, for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.'

nkjv@1Samuel:20:8 @ Therefore you shall deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the LORD with you. Nevertheless, if there is iniquity in me, kill me yourself, for why should you bring me to your father?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:9 @ But Jonathan said, "Far be it from you! For if I knew certainly that evil was determined by my father to come upon you, then would I not tell you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:10 @ Then David said to Jonathan, "Who will tell me, or what if your father answers you roughly?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:12 @ Then Jonathan said to David: "The LORD God of Israel is witness! When I have sounded out my father sometime tomorrow, or the third day, and indeed there is good toward David, and I do not send to you and tell you,

nkjv@1Samuel:20:13 @ may the LORD do so and much more to Jonathan. But if it pleases my father to do you evil, then I will report it to you and send you away, that you may go in safety. And the LORD be with you as He has been with my father.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:19 @ And when you have stayed three days, go down quickly and come to the place where you hid on the day of the deed; and remain by the stone Ezel.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:21 @ and there I will send a lad, saying, "Go, find the arrows.' If I expressly say to the lad, "Look, the arrows are on this side of you; get them and come'--then, as the LORD lives, there is safety for you and no harm.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:25 @ Now the king sat on his seat, as at other times, on a seat by the wall. And Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, but David's place was empty.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:27 @ And it happened the next day, the second day of the month, that David's place was empty. And Saul said to Jonathan his son, "Why has the son of Jesse not come to eat, either yesterday or today?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:29 @ And he said, "Please let me go, for our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has commanded me to be there. And now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me get away and see my brothers.' Therefore he has not come to the king's table."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:30 @ Then Saul's anger was aroused against Jonathan, and he said to him, "You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?

nkjv@1Samuel:20:31 @ For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, you shall not be established, nor your kingdom. Now therefore, send and bring him to me, for he shall surely die."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:32 @ And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said to him, "Why should he be killed? What has he done?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:33 @ Then Saul cast a spear at him to kill him, by which Jonathan knew that it was determined by his father to kill David.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:34 @ So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved for David, because his father had treated him shamefully.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:37 @ When the lad had come to the place where the arrow was which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried out after the lad and said, "Is not the arrow beyond you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:38 @ And Jonathan cried out after the lad, "Make haste, hurry, do not delay!" So Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows and came back to his master.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:41 @ As soon as the lad had gone, David arose from a place toward the south, fell on his face to the ground, and bowed down three times. And they kissed one another; and they wept together, but David more so.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:3 @ Now therefore, what have you on hand? Give me five loaves of bread in my hand, or whatever can be found."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:4 @ And the priest answered David and said, "There is no common bread on hand; but there is holy bread, if the young men have at least kept themselves from women."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:6 @ So the priest gave him holy bread; for there was no bread there but the showbread which had been taken from before the LORD, in order to put hot bread in its place on the day when it was taken away.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:7 @ Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD. And his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chief of the herdsmen who belonged to Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:8 @ And David said to Ahimelech, "Is there not here on hand a spear or a sword? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:9 @ So the priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, there it is, wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you will take that, take it. For there is no other except that one here." And David said, "There is none like it; give it to me."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:11 @ And the servants of Achish said to him, "Is this not David the king of the land? Did they not sing of him to one another in dances, saying: "Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands'?"

nkjv@1Samuel:22:1 @ David therefore departed from there and escaped to the cave of Adullam. So when his brothers and all his father's house heard it, they went down there to him.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:2 @ And everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered to him. So he became captain over them. And there were about four hundred men with him.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:3 @ Then David went from there to Mizpah of Moab; and he said to the king of Moab, "Please let my father and mother come here with you, till I know what God will do for me."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:5 @ Now the prophet Gad said to David, "Do not stay in the stronghold; depart, and go to the land of Judah." So David departed and went into the forest of Hereth.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:8 @ All of you have conspired against me, and there is no one who reveals to me that my son has made a covenant with the son of Jesse; and there is not one of you who is sorry for me or reveals to me that my son has stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as it is this day."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:11 @ So the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests who were in Nob. And they all came to the king.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:12 @ And Saul said, "Hear now, son of Ahitub!" He answered, "Here I am, my lord."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:15 @ Did I then begin to inquire of God for him? Far be it from me! Let not the king impute anything to his servant, or to any in the house of my father. For your servant knew nothing of all this, little or much."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:16 @ And the king said, "You shall surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father's house!"

nkjv@1Samuel:22:22 @ So David said to Abiathar, "I knew that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have caused the death of all the persons of your father's house.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:2 @ Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, "Shall I go and attack these Philistines?" And the LORD said to David, "Go and attack the Philistines, and save Keilah."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:3 @ But David's men said to him, "Look, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?"

nkjv@1Samuel:23:8 @ Then Saul called all the people together for war, to go down to Keilah to besiege David and his men.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:9 @ When David knew that Saul plotted evil against him, he said to Abiathar the priest, "Bring the ephod here."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:13 @ So David and his men, about six hundred, arose and departed from Keilah and went wherever they could go. Then it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keilah; so he halted the expedition.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:17 @ And he said to him, "Do not fear, for the hand of Saul my father shall not find you. You shall be king over Israel, and I shall be next to you. Even my father Saul knows that."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:20 @ Now therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of your soul to come down; and our part shall be to deliver him into the king's hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:22 @ Please go and find out for sure, and see the place where his hideout is, and who has seen him there. For I am told he is very crafty.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:23 @ See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hides; and come back to me with certainty, and I will go with you. And it shall be, if he is in the land, that I will search for him throughout all the clans of Judah."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:25 @ When Saul and his men went to seek him, they told David. Therefore he went down to the rock, and stayed in the Wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard that, he pursued David in the Wilderness of Maon.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:26 @ Then Saul went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men on the other side of the mountain. So David made haste to get away from Saul, for Saul and his men were encircling David and his men to take them.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:28 @ Therefore Saul returned from pursuing David, and went against the Philistines; so they called that place the Rock of Escape.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:29 @ Then David went up from there and dwelt in strongholds at En Gedi.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:3 @ So he came to the sheepfolds by the road, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to attend to his needs. (David and his men were staying in the recesses of the cave.)

nkjv@1Samuel:24:11 @ Moreover, my father, see! Yes, see the corner of your robe in my hand! For in that I cut off the corner of your robe, and did not kill you, know and see that there is neither evil nor rebellion in my hand, and I have not sinned against you. Yet you hunt my life to take it.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:15 @ Therefore let the LORD be judge, and judge between you and me, and see and plead my case, and deliver me out of your hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:24:17 @ Then he said to David: "You are more righteous than I; for you have rewarded me with good, whereas I have rewarded you with evil.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:19 @ For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him get away safely? Therefore may the LORD reward you with good for what you have done to me this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:21 @ Therefore swear now to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my descendants after me, and that you will not destroy my name from my father's house."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:1 @ Then Samuel died; and the Israelites gathered together and lamented for him, and buried him at his home in Ramah. And David arose and went down to the Wilderness of Paran.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:2 @ Now there was a man in Maon whose business was in Carmel, and the man was very rich. He had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats. And he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:7 @ Now I have heard that you have shearers. Your shepherds were with us, and we did not hurt them, nor was there anything missing from them all the while they were in Carmel.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:8 @ Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we come on a feast day. Please give whatever comes to your hand to your servants and to your son David."'

nkjv@1Samuel:25:10 @ Then Nabal answered David's servants, and said, "Who is David, and who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants nowadays who break away each one from his master.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:11 @ Shall I then take my bread and my water and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men when I do not know where they are from?"

nkjv@1Samuel:25:17 @ Now therefore, know and consider what you will do, for harm is determined against our master and against all his household. For he is such a scoundrel that one cannot speak to him."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:19 @ And she said to her servants, "Go on before me; see, I am coming after you." But she did not tell her husband Nabal.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:20 @ So it was, as she rode on the donkey, that she went down under cover of the hill; and there were David and his men, coming down toward her, and she met them.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:23 @ Now when Abigail saw David, she dismounted quickly from the donkey, fell on her face before David, and bowed down to the ground.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:26 @ Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, since the LORD has held you back from coming to bloodshed and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now then, let your enemies and those who seek harm for my lord be as Nabal.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:31 @ that this will be no grief to you, nor offense of heart to my lord, either that you have shed blood without cause, or that my lord has avenged himself. But when the LORD has dealt well with my lord, then remember your maidservant."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:35 @ So David received from her hand what she had brought him, and said to her, "Go up in peace to your house. See, I have heeded your voice and respected your person."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:36 @ Now Abigail went to Nabal, and there he was, holding a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. And Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk; therefore she told him nothing, little or much, until morning light.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:39 @ So when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, "Blessed be the LORD, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept His servant from evil! For the LORD has returned the wickedness of Nabal on his own head." And David sent and proposed to Abigail, to take her as his wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:40 @ When the servants of David had come to Abigail at Carmel, they spoke to her saying, "David sent us to you, to ask you to become his wife."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:41 @ Then she arose, bowed her face to the earth, and said, "Here is your maidservant, a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:42 @ So Abigail rose in haste and rode on a donkey, attended by five of her maidens; and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:4 @ David therefore sent out spies, and understood that Saul had indeed come.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:5 @ So David arose and came to the place where Saul had encamped. And David saw the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the commander of his army. Now Saul lay within the camp, with the people encamped all around him.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:6 @ Then David answered, and said to Ahimelech the Hittite and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, saying, "Who will go down with me to Saul in the camp?" And Abishai said, "I will go down with you."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:7 @ So David and Abishai came to the people by night; and there Saul lay sleeping within the camp, with his spear stuck in the ground by his head. And Abner and the people lay all around him.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:8 @ Then Abishai said to David, "God has delivered your enemy into your hand this day. Now therefore, please, let me strike him at once with the spear, right to the earth; and I will not have to strike him a second time!"

nkjv@1Samuel:26:10 @ David said furthermore, "As the LORD lives, the LORD shall strike him, or his day shall come to die, or he shall go out to battle and perish.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:13 @ Now David went over to the other side, and stood on the top of a hill afar off, a great distance being between them.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:16 @ This thing that you have done is not good. As the LORD lives, you deserve to die, because you have not guarded your master, the LORD's anointed. And now see where the king's spear is, and the jug of water that was by his head."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:19 @ Now therefore, please, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant: If the LORD has stirred you up against me, let Him accept an offering. But if it is the children of men, may they be cursed before the LORD, for they have driven me out this day from sharing in the inheritance of the LORD, saying, "Go, serve other gods.'

nkjv@1Samuel:26:22 @ And David answered and said, "Here is the king's spear. Let one of the young men come over and get it.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:1 @ And David said in his heart, "Now I shall perish someday by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for me than that I should speedily escape to the land of the Philistines; and Saul will despair of me, to seek me anymore in any part of Israel. So I shall escape out of his hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:27:5 @ Then David said to Achish, "If I have now found favor in your eyes, let them give me a place in some town in the country, that I may dwell there. For why should your servant dwell in the royal city with you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:27:6 @ So Achish gave him Ziklag that day. Therefore Ziklag has belonged to the kings of Judah to this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:9 @ Whenever David attacked the land, he left neither man nor woman alive, but took away the sheep, the oxen, the donkeys, the camels, and the apparel, and returned and came to Achish.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:10 @ Then Achish would say, "Where have you made a raid today?" And David would say, "Against the southern area of Judah, or against the southern area of the Jerahmeelites, or against the southern area of the Kenites."

nkjv@1Samuel:27:11 @ David would save neither man nor woman alive, to bring news to Gath, saying, "Lest they should inform on us, saying, "Thus David did."' And thus was his behavior all the time he dwelt in the country of the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:12 @ So Achish believed David, saying, "He has made his people Israel utterly abhor him; therefore he will be my servant forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:1 @ Now it happened in those days that the Philistines gathered their armies together for war, to fight with Israel. And Achish said to David, "You assuredly know that you will go out with me to battle, you and your men."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:2 @ So David said to Achish, "Surely you know what your servant can do." And Achish said to David, "Therefore I will make you one of my chief guardians forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:4 @ Then the Philistines gathered together, and came and encamped at Shunem. So Saul gathered all Israel together, and they encamped at Gilboa.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:6 @ And when Saul inquired of the LORD, the LORD did not answer him, either by dreams or by Urim or by the prophets.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:7 @ Then Saul said to his servants, "Find me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her." And his servants said to him, "In fact, there is a woman who is a medium at En Dor."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:8 @ So Saul disguised himself and put on other clothes, and he went, and two men with him; and they came to the woman by night. And he said, "Please conduct a s^eaance for me, and bring up for me the one I shall name to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:10 @ And Saul swore to her by the LORD, saying, "As the LORD lives, no punishment shall come upon you for this thing."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:13 @ And the king said to her, "Do not be afraid. What did you see?" And the woman said to Saul, "I saw a spirit ascending out of the earth."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:14 @ So he said to her, "What is his form?" And she said, "An old man is coming up, and he is covered with a mantle." And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground and bowed down.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:15 @ Now Samuel said to Saul, "Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?" And Saul answered, "I am deeply distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God has departed from me and does not answer me anymore, neither by prophets nor by dreams. Therefore I have called you, that you may reveal to me what I should do."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:18 @ Because you did not obey the voice of the LORD nor execute His fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore the LORD has done this thing to you this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:20 @ Immediately Saul fell full length on the ground, and was dreadfully afraid because of the words of Samuel. And there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no food all day or all night.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:22 @ Now therefore, please, heed also the voice of your maidservant, and let me set a piece of bread before you; and eat, that you may have strength when you go on your way."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:23 @ But he refused and said, "I will not eat." So his servants, together with the woman, urged him; and he heeded their voice. Then he arose from the ground and sat on the bed.

nkjv@1Samuel:29:1 @ Then the Philistines gathered together all their armies at Aphek, and the Israelites encamped by a fountain which is in Jezreel.

nkjv@1Samuel:29:3 @ Then the princes of the Philistines said, "What are these Hebrews doing here?" And Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, "Is this not David, the servant of Saul king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or these years? And to this day I have found no fault in him since he defected to me."

nkjv@1Samuel:29:5 @ Is this not David, of whom they sang to one another in dances, saying: "Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands'?"

nkjv@1Samuel:30:3 @ So David and his men came to the city, and there it was, burned with fire; and their wives, their sons, and their daughters had been taken captive.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:7 @ Then David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech's son, "Please bring the ephod here to me." And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:9 @ So David went, he and the six hundred men who were with him, and came to the Brook Besor, where those stayed who were left behind.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:13 @ Then David said to him, "To whom do you belong, and where are you from?" And he said, "I am a young man from Egypt, servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me behind, because three days ago I fell sick.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:14 @ We made an invasion of the southern area of the Cherethites, in the territory which belongs to Judah, and of the southern area of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire."

nkjv@1Samuel:30:16 @ And when he had brought him down, there they were, spread out over all the land, eating and drinking and dancing, because of all the great spoil which they had taken from the land of the Philistines and from the land of Judah.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:19 @ And nothing of theirs was lacking, either small or great, sons or daughters, spoil or anything which they had taken from them; David recovered all.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:20 @ Then David took all the flocks and herds they had driven before those other livestock, and said, "This is David's spoil."

nkjv@1Samuel:30:26 @ Now when David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the spoil to the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying, "Here is a present for you from the spoil of the enemies of the LORD"--

nkjv@1Samuel:31:3 @ The battle became fierce against Saul. The archers hit him, and he was severely wounded by the archers.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:4 @ Then Saul said to his armorbearer, "Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised men come and thrust me through and abuse me." But his armorbearer would not, for he was greatly afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword and fell on it.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:6 @ So Saul, his three sons, his armorbearer, and all his men died together that same day.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:7 @ And when the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those who were on the other side of the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:12 @ all the valiant men arose and traveled all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth Shan; and they came to Jabesh and burned them there.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:2 @ Then David said, "I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me." So David sent by the hand of his servants to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the people of Ammon.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:3 @ And the princes of the people of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, "Do you think that David really honors your father because he has sent comforters to you? Has David not rather sent his servants to you to search the city, to spy it out, and to overthrow it?"

nkjv@2Samuel:11:27 @ And when her mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:1 @ Then the LORD sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him: "There were two men in one city, one rich and the other poor.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:2 @ The rich man had exceedingly many flocks and herds.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:3 @ But the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb which he had bought and nourished; and it grew up together with him and with his children. It ate of his own food and drank from his own cup and lay in his bosom; and it was like a daughter to him.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:16 @ David therefore pleaded with God for the child, and David fasted and went in and lay all night on the ground.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:19 @ When David saw that his servants were whispering, David perceived that the child was dead. Therefore David said to his servants, "Is the child dead?" And they said, "He is dead."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:22 @ And he said, "While the child was alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, "Who can tell whether the LORD will be gracious to me, that the child may live?'

nkjv@2Samuel:12:24 @ Then David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her and lay with her. So she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. Now the LORD loved him,

nkjv@2Samuel:12:28 @ Now therefore, gather the rest of the people together and encamp against the city and take it, lest I take the city and it be called after my name."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:29 @ So David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, fought against it, and took it.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:1 @ After this Absalom the son of David had a lovely sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:2 @ Amnon was so distressed over his sister Tamar that he became sick; for she was a virgin. And it was improper for Amnon to do anything to her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:3 @ But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David's brother. Now Jonadab was a very crafty man.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:8 @ So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was lying down. Then she took flour and kneaded it, made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:10 @ Then Amnon said to Tamar, "Bring the food into the bedroom, that I may eat from your hand." And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them to Amnon her brother in the bedroom.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:11 @ Now when she had brought them to him to eat, he took hold of her and said to her, "Come, lie with me, my sister."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:13 @ And I, where could I take my shame? And as for you, you would be like one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:14 @ However, he would not heed her voice; and being stronger than she, he forced her and lay with her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:15 @ Then Amnon hated her exceedingly, so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, "Arise, be gone!"

nkjv@2Samuel:13:16 @ So she said to him, "No, indeed! This evil of sending me away is worse than the other that you did to me." But he would not listen to her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:17 @ Then he called his servant who attended him, and said, "Here! Put this woman out, away from me, and bolt the door behind her."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:18 @ Now she had on a robe of many colors, for the king's virgin daughters wore such apparel. And his servant put her out and bolted the door behind her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:19 @ Then Tamar put ashes on her head, and tore her robe of many colors that was on her, and laid her hand on her head and went away crying bitterly.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:20 @ And Absalom her brother said to her, "Has Amnon your brother been with you? But now hold your peace, my sister. He is your brother; do not take this thing to heart." So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:22 @ And Absalom spoke to his brother Amnon neither good nor bad. For Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:26 @ Then Absalom said, "If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us." And the king said to him, "Why should he go with you?"

nkjv@2Samuel:13:32 @ Then Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David's brother, answered and said, "Let not my lord suppose they have killed all the young men, the king's sons, for only Amnon is dead. For by the command of Absalom this has been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:33 @ Now therefore, let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead. For only Amnon is dead."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:34 @ Then Absalom fled. And the young man who was keeping watch lifted his eyes and looked, and there, many people were coming from the road on the hillside behind him.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:38 @ So Absalom fled and went to Geshur, and was there three years.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:2 @ And Joab sent to Tekoa and brought from there a wise woman, and said to her, "Please pretend to be a mourner, and put on mourning apparel; do not anoint yourself with oil, but act like a woman who has been mourning a long time for the dead.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:3 @ Go to the king and speak to him in this manner." So Joab put the words in her mouth.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:4 @ And when the woman of Tekoa spoke to the king, she fell on her face to the ground and prostrated herself, and said, "Help, O king!"

nkjv@2Samuel:14:5 @ Then the king said to her, "What troubles you?" And she answered, "Indeed I am a widow, my husband is dead.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:6 @ Now your maidservant had two sons; and the two fought with each other in the field, and there was no one to part them, but the one struck the other and killed him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:7 @ And now the whole family has risen up against your maidservant, and they said, "Deliver him who struck his brother, that we may execute him for the life of his brother whom he killed; and we will destroy the heir also.' So they would extinguish my ember that is left, and leave to my husband neither name nor remnant on the earth."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:9 @ And the woman of Tekoa said to the king, "My lord, O king, let the iniquity be on me and on my father's house, and the king and his throne be guiltless."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:12 @ Therefore the woman said, "Please, let your maidservant speak another word to my lord the king." And he said, "Say on."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:14 @ For we will surely die and become like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. Yet God does not take away a life; but He devises means, so that His banished ones are not expelled from Him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:15 @ Now therefore, I have come to speak of this thing to my lord the king because the people have made me afraid. And your maidservant said, "I will now speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his maidservant.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:16 @ For the king will hear and deliver his maidservant from the hand of the man who would destroy me and my son together from the inheritance of God.'

nkjv@2Samuel:14:21 @ And the king said to Joab, "All right, I have granted this thing. Go therefore, bring back the young man Absalom."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:25 @ Now in all Israel there was no one who was praised as much as Absalom for his good looks. From the sole of his foot to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:29 @ Therefore Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king, but he would not come to him. And when he sent again the second time, he would not come.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:30 @ So he said to his servants, "See, Joab's field is near mine, and he has barley there; go and set it on fire." And Absalom's servants set the field on fire.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:32 @ And Absalom answered Joab, "Look, I sent to you, saying, "Come here, so that I may send you to the king, to say, "Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me to be there still."' Now therefore, let me see the king's face; but if there is iniquity in me, let him execute me."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:3 @ Then Absalom would say to him, "Look, your case is good and right; but there is no deputy of the king to hear you."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:18 @ Then all his servants passed before him; and all the Cherethites, all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who had followed him from Gath, passed before the king.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:20 @ In fact, you came only yesterday. Should I make you wander up and down with us today, since I go I know not where? Return, and take your brethren back. Mercy and truth be with you."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:21 @ But Ittai answered the king and said, "As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in whatever place my lord the king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also your servant will be."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:24 @ There was Zadok also, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar went up until all the people had finished crossing over from the city.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:26 @ But if He says thus: "I have no delight in you,' here I am, let Him do to me as seems good to Him."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:29 @ Therefore Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem. And they remained there.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:32 @ Now it happened when David had come to the top of the mountain, where he worshiped God--there was Hushai the Archite coming to meet him with his robe torn and dust on his head.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:34 @ But if you return to the city, and say to Absalom, "I will be your servant, O king; as I was your father's servant previously, so I will now also be your servant,' then you may defeat the counsel of Ahithophel for me.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:35 @ And do you not have Zadok and Abiathar the priests with you there? Therefore it will be that whatever you hear from the king's house, you shall tell to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:36 @ Indeed they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son; and by them you shall send me everything you hear."

nkjv@2Samuel:16:1 @ When David was a little past the top of the mountain, there was Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth, who met him with a couple of saddled donkeys, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, one hundred clusters of raisins, one hundred summer fruits, and a skin of wine.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:3 @ Then the king said, "And where is your master's son?" And Ziba said to the king, "Indeed he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said, "Today the house of Israel will restore the kingdom of my father to me."'

nkjv@2Samuel:16:4 @ So the king said to Ziba, "Here, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours." And Ziba said, "I humbly bow before you, that I may find favor in your sight, my lord, O king!"

nkjv@2Samuel:16:5 @ Now when King David came to Bahurim, there was a man from the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei the son of Gera, coming from there. He came out, cursing continuously as he came.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:14 @ Now the king and all the people who were with him became weary; so they refreshed themselves there.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:19 @ "Furthermore, whom should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence."

nkjv@2Samuel:21:10 @ Now Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until the late rains poured on them from heaven. And she did not allow the birds of the air to rest on them by day nor the beasts of the field by night.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:12 @ Then David went and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the men of Jabesh Gilead who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hung them up, after the Philistines had struck down Saul in Gilboa.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:14 @ They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zelah, in the tomb of Kish his father. So they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God heeded the prayer for the land.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:18 @ Now it happened afterward that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbechai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was one of the sons of the giant.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:19 @ Again there was war at Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:20 @ Yet again there was war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; and he also was born to the giant.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:21 @ So when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea, David's brother, killed him.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:4 @ Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab and against the captains of the army. Therefore Joab and the captains of the army went out from the presence of the king to count the people of Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:9 @ Then Joab gave the sum of the number of the people to the king. And there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword, and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:13 @ So Gad came to David and told him; and he said to him, "Shall seven years of famine come to you in your land?

nkjv@1Kings:18:40 @ And Elijah said to them, "Seize the prophets of Baal! Do not let one of them escape!" So they seized them; and Elijah brought them down to the Brook Kishon and executed them there.

nkjv@1Kings:20:32 @ So they wore sackcloth around their waists and put ropes around their heads, and came to the king of Israel and said, "Your servant Ben-Hadad says, "Please let me live."' And he said, "Is he still alive? He is my brother."

nkjv@1Kings:20:33 @ Now the men were watching closely to see whether any sign of mercy would come from him; and they quickly grasped at this word and said, "Your brother Ben-Hadad." So he said, "Go, bring him." Then Ben-Hadad came out to him; and he had him come up into the chariot.

nkjv@1Kings:20:34 @ So Ben-Hadad said to him, "The cities which my father took from your father I will restore; and you may set up marketplaces for yourself in Damascus, as my father did in Samaria." Then Ahab said, "I will send you away with this treaty." So he made a treaty with him and sent him away.

nkjv@1Kings:20:37 @ And he found another man, and said, "Strike me, please." So the man struck him, inflicting a wound.

nkjv@1Kings:20:39 @ Now as the king passed by, he cried out to the king and said, "Your servant went out into the midst of the battle; and there, a man came over and brought a man to me, and said, "Guard this man; if by any means he is missing, your life shall be for his life, or else you shall pay a talent of silver.'

nkjv@1Kings:20:40 @ While your servant was busy here and there, he was gone." Then the king of Israel said to him, "So shall your judgment be; you yourself have decided it."

nkjv@1Kings:20:42 @ Then he said to him, "Thus says the LORD: "Because you have let slip out of your hand a man whom I appointed to utter destruction, therefore your life shall go for his life, and your people for his people."'

nkjv@1Kings:21:3 @ But Naboth said to Ahab, "The LORD forbid that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to you!"

nkjv@1Kings:21:4 @ So Ahab went into his house sullen and displeased because of the word which Naboth the Jezreelite had spoken to him; for he had said, "I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers." And he lay down on his bed, and turned away his face, and would eat no food.

nkjv@1Kings:21:6 @ He said to her, "Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite, and said to him, "Give me your vineyard for money; or else, if it pleases you, I will give you another vineyard for it.' And he answered, "I will not give you my vineyard."'

nkjv@1Kings:21:25 @ But there was no one like Ahab who sold himself to do wickedness in the sight of the LORD, because Jezebel his wife stirred him up.

nkjv@1Kings:22:6 @ Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall I go against Ramoth Gilead to fight, or shall I refrain?" So they said, "Go up, for the Lord will deliver it into the hand of the king."

nkjv@1Kings:22:7 @ And Jehoshaphat said, "Is there not still a prophet of the LORD here, that we may inquire of Him?"

nkjv@1Kings:22:8 @ So the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is still one man, Micaiah the son of Imlah, by whom we may inquire of the LORD; but I hate him, because he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil." And Jehoshaphat said, "Let not the king say such things!"

nkjv@1Kings:22:17 @ Then he said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. And the LORD said, "These have no master. Let each return to his house in peace."'

nkjv@1Kings:22:32 @ So it was, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, "Surely it is the king of Israel!" Therefore they turned aside to fight against him, and Jehoshaphat cried out.

nkjv@1Kings:22:46 @ And the rest of the perverted persons, who remained in the days of his father Asa, he banished from the land.

nkjv@1Kings:22:47 @ There was then no king in Edom, only a deputy of the king.

nkjv@1Kings:22:50 @ And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David his father. Then Jehoram his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@1Kings:22:52 @ He did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father and in the way of his mother and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who had made Israel sin;

nkjv@2Kings:3:23 @ And they said, "This is blood; the kings have surely struck swords and have killed one another; now therefore, Moab, to the spoil!"

nkjv@2Kings:3:27 @ Then he took his eldest son who would have reigned in his place, and offered him as a burnt offering upon the wall; and there was great indignation against Israel. So they departed from him and returned to their own land.

nkjv@2Kings:4:2 @ So Elisha said to her, "What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?" And she said, "Your maidservant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil."

nkjv@2Kings:4:3 @ Then he said, "Go, borrow vessels from everywhere, from all your neighbors--empty vessels; do not gather just a few.

nkjv@2Kings:4:5 @ So she went from him and shut the door behind her and her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured it out.

nkjv@2Kings:4:6 @ Now it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said to her son, "Bring me another vessel." And he said to her, "There is not another vessel." So the oil ceased.

nkjv@2Kings:4:8 @ Now it happened one day that Elisha went to Shunem, where there was a notable woman, and she persuaded him to eat some food. So it was, as often as he passed by, he would turn in there to eat some food.

nkjv@2Kings:4:9 @ And she said to her husband, "Look now, I know that this is a holy man of God, who passes by us regularly.

nkjv@2Kings:4:10 @ Please, let us make a small upper room on the wall; and let us put a bed for him there, and a table and a chair and a lampstand; so it will be, whenever he comes to us, he can turn in there."

nkjv@2Kings:4:11 @ And it happened one day that he came there, and he turned in to the upper room and lay down there.

nkjv@2Kings:4:12 @ Then he said to Gehazi his servant, "Call this Shunammite woman." When he had called her, she stood before him.

nkjv@2Kings:4:13 @ And he said to him, "Say now to her, "Look, you have been concerned for us with all this care. What can I do for you? Do you want me to speak on your behalf to the king or to the commander of the army?"' She answered, "I dwell among my own people."

nkjv@2Kings:4:14 @ So he said, "What then is to be done for her?" And Gehazi answered, "Actually, she has no son, and her husband is old."

nkjv@2Kings:4:15 @ So he said, "Call her." When he had called her, she stood in the doorway.

nkjv@2Kings:4:17 @ But the woman conceived, and bore a son when the appointed time had come, of which Elisha had told her.

nkjv@2Kings:4:18 @ And the child grew. Now it happened one day that he went out to his father, to the reapers.

nkjv@2Kings:4:19 @ And he said to his father, "My head, my head!" So he said to a servant, "Carry him to his mother."

nkjv@2Kings:4:20 @ When he had taken him and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.

nkjv@2Kings:4:22 @ Then she called to her husband, and said, "Please send me one of the young men and one of the donkeys, that I may run to the man of God and come back."

nkjv@2Kings:4:23 @ So he said, "Why are you going to him today? It is neither the New Moon nor the Sabbath." And she said, "It is well."

nkjv@2Kings:4:24 @ Then she saddled a donkey, and said to her servant, "Drive, and go forward; do not slacken the pace for me unless I tell you."

nkjv@2Kings:4:25 @ And so she departed, and went to the man of God at Mount Carmel. So it was, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to his servant Gehazi, "Look, the Shunammite woman!

nkjv@2Kings:4:26 @ Please run now to meet her, and say to her, "Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the child?"' And she answered, "It is well."

nkjv@2Kings:4:27 @ Now when she came to the man of God at the hill, she caught him by the feet, but Gehazi came near to push her away. But the man of God said, "Let her alone; for her soul is in deep distress, and the LORD has hidden it from me, and has not told me."

nkjv@2Kings:4:30 @ And the mother of the child said, "As the LORD lives, and as your soul lives, I will not leave you." So he arose and followed her.

nkjv@2Kings:4:31 @ Now Gehazi went on ahead of them, and laid the staff on the face of the child; but there was neither voice nor hearing. Therefore he went back to meet him, and told him, saying, "The child has not awakened."

nkjv@2Kings:4:32 @ When Elisha came into the house, there was the child, lying dead on his bed.

nkjv@2Kings:4:33 @ He went in therefore, shut the door behind the two of them, and prayed to the LORD.

nkjv@2Kings:4:36 @ And he called Gehazi and said, "Call this Shunammite woman." So he called her. And when she came in to him, he said, "Pick up your son."

nkjv@2Kings:4:37 @ So she went in, fell at his feet, and bowed to the ground; then she picked up her son and went out.

nkjv@2Kings:4:38 @ And Elisha returned to Gilgal, and there was a famine in the land. Now the sons of the prophets were sitting before him; and he said to his servant, "Put on the large pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets."

nkjv@2Kings:4:39 @ So one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered from it a lapful of wild gourds, and came and sliced them into the pot of stew, though they did not know what they were.

nkjv@2Kings:4:40 @ Then they served it to the men to eat. Now it happened, as they were eating the stew, that they cried out and said, "Man of God, there is death in the pot!" And they could not eat it.

nkjv@2Kings:4:41 @ So he said, "Then bring some flour." And he put it into the pot, and said, "Serve it to the people, that they may eat." And there was nothing harmful in the pot.

nkjv@2Kings:5:3 @ Then she said to her mistress, "If only my master were with the prophet who is in Samaria! For he would heal him of his leprosy."

nkjv@2Kings:5:7 @ And it happened, when the king of Israel read the letter, that he tore his clothes and said, "Am I God, to kill and make alive, that this man sends a man to me to heal him of his leprosy? Therefore please consider, and see how he seeks a quarrel with me."

nkjv@2Kings:5:8 @ So it was, when Elisha the man of God heard that the king of Israel had torn his clothes, that he sent to the king, saying, "Why have you torn your clothes? Please let him come to me, and he shall know that there is a prophet in Israel."

nkjv@2Kings:5:13 @ And his servants came near and spoke to him, and said, "My father, if the prophet had told you to do something great, would you not have done it? How much more then, when he says to you, "Wash, and be clean'?"

nkjv@2Kings:5:15 @ And he returned to the man of God, he and all his aides, and came and stood before him; and he said, "Indeed, now I know that there is no God in all the earth, except in Israel; now therefore, please take a gift from your servant."

nkjv@2Kings:5:17 @ So Naaman said, "Then, if not, please let your servant be given two mule-loads of earth; for your servant will no longer offer either burnt offering or sacrifice to other gods, but to the LORD.

nkjv@2Kings:5:18 @ Yet in this thing may the LORD pardon your servant: when my master goes into the temple of Rimmon to worship there, and he leans on my hand, and I bow down in the temple of Rimmon--when I bow down in the temple of Rimmon, may the LORD please pardon your servant in this thing."

nkjv@2Kings:5:25 @ Now he went in and stood before his master. Elisha said to him, "Where did you go, Gehazi?" And he said, "Your servant did not go anywhere."

nkjv@2Kings:5:27 @ Therefore the leprosy of Naaman shall cling to you and your descendants forever." And he went out from his presence leprous, as white as snow.

nkjv@2Kings:6:1 @ And the sons of the prophets said to Elisha, "See now, the place where we dwell with you is too small for us.

nkjv@2Kings:6:2 @ Please, let us go to the Jordan, and let every man take a beam from there, and let us make there a place where we may dwell." So he answered, "Go."

nkjv@2Kings:6:6 @ So the man of God said, "Where did it fall?" And he showed him the place. So he cut off a stick, and threw it in there; and he made the iron float.

nkjv@2Kings:6:7 @ Therefore he said, "Pick it up for yourself." So he reached out his hand and took it.

nkjv@2Kings:6:9 @ And the man of God sent to the king of Israel, saying, "Beware that you do not pass this place, for the Syrians are coming down there."

nkjv@2Kings:6:10 @ Then the king of Israel sent someone to the place of which the man of God had told him. Thus he warned him, and he was watchful there, not just once or twice.

nkjv@2Kings:6:11 @ Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was greatly troubled by this thing; and he called his servants and said to them, "Will you not show me which of us is for the king of Israel?"

nkjv@2Kings:6:13 @ So he said, "Go and see where he is, that I may send and get him." And it was told him, saying, "Surely he is in Dothan."

nkjv@2Kings:6:14 @ Therefore he sent horses and chariots and a great army there, and they came by night and surrounded the city.

nkjv@2Kings:6:15 @ And when the servant of the man of God arose early and went out, there was an army, surrounding the city with horses and chariots. And his servant said to him, "Alas, my master! What shall we do?"

nkjv@2Kings:6:20 @ So it was, when they had come to Samaria, that Elisha said, "LORD, open the eyes of these men, that they may see." And the LORD opened their eyes, and they saw; and there they were, inside Samaria!

nkjv@2Kings:6:21 @ Now when the king of Israel saw them, he said to Elisha, "My father, shall I kill them? Shall I kill them?"

nkjv@2Kings:6:24 @ And it happened after this that Ben-Hadad king of Syria gathered all his army, and went up and besieged Samaria.

nkjv@2Kings:6:25 @ And there was a great famine in Samaria; and indeed they besieged it until a donkey's head was sold for eighty shekels of silver, and one-fourth of a kab of dove droppings for five shekels of silver.

nkjv@2Kings:6:27 @ And he said, "If the LORD does not help you, where can I find help for you? From the threshing floor or from the winepress?"

nkjv@2Kings:6:28 @ Then the king said to her, "What is troubling you?" And she answered, "This woman said to me, "Give your son, that we may eat him today, and we will eat my son tomorrow.'

nkjv@2Kings:6:29 @ So we boiled my son, and ate him. And I said to her on the next day, "Give your son, that we may eat him'; but she has hidden her son."

nkjv@2Kings:6:30 @ Now it happened, when the king heard the words of the woman, that he tore his clothes; and as he passed by on the wall, the people looked, and there underneath he had sackcloth on his body.

nkjv@2Kings:6:33 @ And while he was still talking with them, there was the messenger, coming down to him; and then the king said, "Surely this calamity is from the LORD; why should I wait for the LORD any longer?"

nkjv@2Kings:7:3 @ Now there were four leprous men at the entrance of the gate; and they said to one another, "Why are we sitting here until we die?

nkjv@2Kings:7:4 @ If we say, "We will enter the city,' the famine is in the city, and we shall die there. And if we sit here, we die also. Now therefore, come, let us surrender to the army of the Syrians. If they keep us alive, we shall live; and if they kill us, we shall only die."

nkjv@2Kings:7:5 @ And they rose at twilight to go to the camp of the Syrians; and when they had come to the outskirts of the Syrian camp, to their surprise no one was there.

nkjv@2Kings:7:6 @ For the LORD had caused the army of the Syrians to hear the noise of chariots and the noise of horses--the noise of a great army; so they said to one another, "Look, the king of Israel has hired against us the kings of the Hittites and the kings of the Egyptians to attack us!"

nkjv@2Kings:7:7 @ Therefore they arose and fled at twilight, and left the camp intact--their tents, their horses, and their donkeys--and they fled for their lives.

nkjv@2Kings:7:8 @ And when these lepers came to the outskirts of the camp, they went into one tent and ate and drank, and carried from it silver and gold and clothing, and went and hid them; then they came back and entered another tent, and carried some from there also, and went and hid it.

nkjv@2Kings:7:9 @ Then they said to one another, "We are not doing right. This day is a day of good news, and we remain silent. If we wait until morning light, some punishment will come upon us. Now therefore, come, let us go and tell the king's household."

nkjv@2Kings:7:10 @ So they went and called to the gatekeepers of the city, and told them, saying, "We went to the Syrian camp, and surprisingly no one was there, not a human sound--only horses and donkeys tied, and the tents intact."

nkjv@2Kings:7:12 @ So the king arose in the night and said to his servants, "Let me now tell you what the Syrians have done to us.

nkjv@2Kings:7:14 @ Therefore they took two chariots with horses; and the king sent them in the direction of the Syrian army, saying, "Go and see."

nkjv@2Kings:8:1 @ Then Elisha spoke to the woman whose son he had restored to life, saying, "Arise and go, you and your household, and stay wherever you can; for the LORD has called for a famine, and furthermore, it will come upon the land for seven years."

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:16 @ So Rehoboam rested with his fathers, and was buried in the City of David. Then Abijah his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:2 @ He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:7 @ Then worthless rogues gathered to him, and strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and inexperienced and could not withstand them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:9 @ Have you not cast out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made for yourselves priests, like the peoples of other lands, so that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of things that are not gods?

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:12 @ Now look, God Himself is with us as our head, and His priests with sounding trumpets to sound the alarm against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the LORD God of your fathers, for you shall not prosper!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:18 @ Thus the children of Israel were subdued at that time; and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied on the LORD God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:1 @ So Abijah rested with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David. Then Asa his son reigned in his place. In his days the land was quiet for ten years.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:4 @ He commanded Judah to seek the LORD God of their fathers, and to observe the law and the commandment.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:7 @ Therefore he said to Judah, "Let us build these cities and make walls around them, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us, because we have sought the LORD our God; we have sought Him, and He has given us rest on every side." So they built and prospered.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:11 @ And Asa cried out to the LORD his God, and said, "LORD, it is nothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power; help us, O LORD our God, for we rest on You, and in Your name we go against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God; do not let man prevail against You!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:14 @ Then they defeated all the cities around Gerar, for the fear of the LORD came upon them; and they plundered all the cities, for there was exceedingly much spoil in them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:5 @ And in those times there was no peace to the one who went out, nor to the one who came in, but great turmoil was on all the inhabitants of the lands.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:9 @ Then he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those who dwelt with them from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon, for they came over to him in great numbers from Israel when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:10 @ So they gathered together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:12 @ Then they entered into a covenant to seek the LORD God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:13 @ and whoever would not seek the LORD God of Israel was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:16 @ Also he removed Maachah, the mother of Asa the king, from being queen mother, because she had made an obscene image of Asherah; and Asa cut down her obscene image, then crushed and burned it by the Brook Kidron.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:18 @ He also brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicated and that he himself had dedicated: silver and gold and utensils.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:19 @ And there was no war until the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:3 @ "Let there be a treaty between you and me, as there was between my father and your father. See, I have sent you silver and gold; come, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from me."

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:7 @ And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him: "Because you have relied on the king of Syria, and have not relied on the LORD your God, therefore the army of the king of Syria has escaped from your hand.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:9 @ For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. In this you have done foolishly; therefore from now on you shall have wars."

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:13 @ So Asa rested with his fathers; he died in the forty-first year of his reign.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:2 @ And he placed troops in all the fortified cities of Judah, and set garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim which Asa his father had taken.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:3 @ Now the LORD was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the former ways of his father David; he did not seek the Baals,

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:4 @ but sought the God of his father, and walked in His commandments and not according to the acts of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:5 @ Therefore the LORD established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah gave presents to Jehoshaphat, and he had riches and honor in abundance.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:14 @ These are their numbers, according to their fathers' houses. Of Judah, the captains of thousands: Adnah the captain, and with him three hundred thousand mighty men of valor;

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:5 @ Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall we go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or shall I refrain?" So they said, "Go up, for God will deliver it into the king's hand."

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:6 @ But Jehoshaphat said, "Is there not still a prophet of the LORD here, that we may inquire of Him?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:7 @ So the king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is still one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD; but I hate him, because he never prophesies good concerning me, but always evil. He is Micaiah the son of Imla." And Jehoshaphat said, "Let not the king say such things!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:12 @ Then the messenger who had gone to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, "Now listen, the words of the prophets with one accord encourage the king. Therefore please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak encouragement."

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:16 @ Then he said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. And the LORD said, "These have no master. Let each return to his house in peace."'

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:18 @ Then Micaiah said, "Therefore hear the word of the LORD: I saw the LORD sitting on His throne, and all the host of heaven standing on His right hand and His left.

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:19 @ And the LORD said, "Who will persuade Ahab king of Israel to go up, that he may fall at Ramoth Gilead?' So one spoke in this manner, and another spoke in that manner.

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:22 @ Therefore look! The LORD has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these prophets of yours, and the LORD has declared disaster against you."

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:31 @ So it was, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, "It is the king of Israel!" Therefore they surrounded him to attack; but Jehoshaphat cried out, and the LORD helped him, and God diverted them from him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:19:2 @ And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to King Jehoshaphat, "Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the LORD? Therefore the wrath of the LORD is upon you.

nkjv@2Chronicles:19:4 @ So Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem; and he went out again among the people from Beersheba to the mountains of Ephraim, and brought them back to the LORD God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:19:7 @ Now therefore, let the fear of the LORD be upon you; take care and do it, for there is no iniquity with the LORD our God, no partiality, nor taking of bribes."

nkjv@2Chronicles:19:8 @ Moreover in Jerusalem, for the judgment of the LORD and for controversies, Jehoshaphat appointed some of the Levites and priests, and some of the chief fathers of Israel, when they returned to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:19:10 @ Whatever case comes to you from your brethren who dwell in their cities, whether of bloodshed or offenses against law or commandment, against statutes or ordinances, you shall warn them, lest they trespass against the LORD and wrath come upon you and your brethren. Do this, and you will not be guilty.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:1 @ It happened after this that the people of Moab with the people of Ammon, and others with them besides the Ammonites, came to battle against Jehoshaphat.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:4 @ So Judah gathered together to ask help from the LORD; and from all the cities of Judah they came to seek the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:6 @ and said: "O LORD God of our fathers, are You not God in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations, and in Your hand is there not power and might, so that no one is able to withstand You?

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:10 @ And now, here are the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir--whom You would not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned from them and did not destroy them--

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:11 @ here they are, rewarding us by coming to throw us out of Your possession which You have given us to inherit.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:23 @ For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:24 @ So when Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked toward the multitude; and there were their dead bodies, fallen on the earth. No one had escaped.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:25 @ When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away their spoil, they found among them an abundance of valuables on the dead bodies, and precious jewelry, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away; and they were three days gathering the spoil because there was so much.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:26 @ And on the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Berachah, for there they blessed the LORD; therefore the name of that place was called The Valley of Berachah until this day.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:31 @ So Jehoshaphat was king over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:32 @ And he walked in the way of his father Asa, and did not turn aside from it, doing what was right in the sight of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:33 @ Nevertheless the high places were not taken away, for as yet the people had not directed their hearts to the God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:1 @ And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David. Then Jehoram his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:2 @ He had brothers, the sons of Jehoshaphat: Azariah, Jehiel, Zechariah, Azaryahu, Michael, and Shephatiah; all these were the sons of Jehoshaphat king of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:3 @ Their father gave them great gifts of silver and gold and precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:4 @ Now when Jehoram was established over the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself and killed all his brothers with the sword, and also others of the princes of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:10 @ Thus Edom has been in revolt against Judah's authority to this day. At that time Libnah revolted against his rule, because he had forsaken the LORD God of his fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:12 @ And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, 4 Thus says the LORD God of your father David: 4 Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:17 @ And they came up into Judah and invaded it, and carried away all the possessions that were found in the king's house, and also his sons and his wives, so that there was not a son left to him except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:19 @ Then it happened in the course of time, after the end of two years, that his intestines came out because of his sickness; so he died in severe pain. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning for his fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:2 @ Ahaziah was forty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah the granddaughter of Omri.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:3 @ He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab, for his mother advised him to do wickedly.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:4 @ Therefore he did evil in the sight of the LORD, like the house of Ahab; for they were his counselors after the death of his father, to his destruction.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:8 @ And it happened, when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab, and found the princes of Judah and the sons of Ahaziah's brothers who served Ahaziah, that he killed them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:10 @ Now when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the royal heirs of the house of Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:2 @ And they went throughout Judah and gathered the Levites from all the cities of Judah, and the chief fathers of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:13 @ When she looked, there was the king standing by his pillar at the entrance; and the leaders and the trumpeters were by the king. All the people of the land were rejoicing and blowing trumpets, also the singers with musical instruments, and those who led in praise. So Athaliah tore her clothes and said, "Treason! Treason!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:14 @ And Jehoiada the priest brought out the captains of hundreds who were set over the army, and said to them, "Take her outside under guard, and slay with the sword whoever follows her." For the priest had said, "Do not kill her in the house of the LORD."

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:15 @ So they seized her; and she went by way of the entrance of the Horse Gate into the king's house, and they killed her there.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:1 @ Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:5 @ Then he gathered the priests and the Levites, and said to them, "Go out to the cities of Judah, and gather from all Israel money to repair the house of your God from year to year, and see that you do it quickly." However the Levites did not do it quickly.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:11 @ So it was, at that time, when the chest was brought to the king's official by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, that the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it and returned it to its place. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:18 @ Therefore they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers, and served wooden images and idols; and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem because of their trespass.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:22 @ Thus Joash the king did not remember the kindness which Jehoiada his father had done to him, but killed his son; and as he died, he said, "The LORD look on it, and repay!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:24 @ For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; but the LORD delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD God of their fathers. So they executed judgment against Joash.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:3 @ Now it happened, as soon as the kingdom was established for him, that he executed his servants who had murdered his father the king.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:4 @ However he did not execute their children, but did as it is written in the Law in the Book of Moses, where the LORD commanded, saying, "The fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor shall the children be put to death for their fathers; but a person shall die for his own sin."

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:5 @ Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together and set over them captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, according to their fathers' houses, throughout all Judah and Benjamin; and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them to be three hundred thousand choice men, able to go to war, who could handle spear and shield.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:10 @ So Amaziah discharged the troops that had come to him from Ephraim, to go back home. Therefore their anger was greatly aroused against Judah, and they returned home in great anger.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:15 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD was aroused against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet who said to him, "Why have you sought the gods of the people, which could not rescue their own people from your hand?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:17 @ Now Amaziah king of Judah asked advice and sent to Joash the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us face one another in battle."

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:21 @ So Joash king of Israel went out; and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced one another at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:27 @ After the time that Amaziah turned away from following the LORD, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish and killed him there.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:23 @ So Uzziah rested with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial which belonged to the kings, for they said, "He is a leper." Then Jotham his son reigned in his place.

And when he had gone into the temple of his god, some of his own offspring struck him down with the sword there.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:22 @ Thus the LORD saved Hezekiah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the hand of Sennacherib the king of Assyria, and from the hand of all others, and guided them on every side.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:23 @ And many brought gifts to the LORD at Jerusalem, and presents to Hezekiah king of Judah, so that he was exalted in the sight of all nations thereafter.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:25 @ But Hezekiah did not repay according to the favor shown him, for his heart was lifted up; therefore wrath was looming over him and over Judah and Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:29 @ Moreover he provided cities for himself, and possessions of flocks and herds in abundance; for God had given him very much property.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:33 @ So Hezekiah rested with his fathers, and they buried him in the upper tombs of the sons of David; and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem honored him at his death. Then Manasseh his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:3 @ For he rebuilt the high places which Hezekiah his father had broken down; he raised up altars for the Baals, and made wooden images; and he worshiped all the host of heaven and served them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:8 @ and I will not again remove the foot of Israel from the land which I have appointed for your fathers--only if they are careful to do all that I have commanded them, according to the whole law and the statutes and the ordinances by the hand of Moses."

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:11 @ Therefore the LORD brought upon them the captains of the army of the king of Assyria, who took Manasseh with hooks, bound him with bronze fetters, and carried him off to Babylon.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:12 @ Now when he was in affliction, he implored the LORD his God, and humbled himself greatly before the God of his fathers,

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:19 @ Also his prayer and how God received his entreaty, and all his sin and trespass, and the sites where he built high places and set up wooden images and carved images, before he was humbled, indeed they are written among the sayings of Hozai.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:20 @ So Manasseh rested with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. Then his son Amon reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:22 @ But he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done; for Amon sacrificed to all the carved images which his father Manasseh had made, and served them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:23 @ And he did not humble himself before the LORD, as his father Manasseh had humbled himself; but Amon trespassed more and more.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:2 @ And he did what was right in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of his father David; he did not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:3 @ For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was still young, he began to seek the God of his father David; and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem of the high places, the wooden images, the carved images, and the molded images.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:9 @ When they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites who kept the doors had gathered from the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, from all the remnant of Israel, from all Judah and Benjamin, and which they had brought back to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:12 @ And the men did the work faithfully. Their overseers were Jahath and Obadiah the Levites, of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to supervise. Others of the Levites, all of whom were skillful with instruments of music,

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:22 @ So Hilkiah and those the king had appointed went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tokhath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe. (She dwelt in Jerusalem in the Second Quarter.) And they spoke to her to that effect.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:32 @ And he made all who were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin take a stand. So the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:33 @ Thus Josiah removed all the abominations from all the country that belonged to the children of Israel, and made all who were present in Israel diligently serve the LORD their God. All his days they did not depart from following the LORD God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:9 @ Also Conaniah, his brothers Shemaiah and Nethanel, and Hashabiah and Jeiel and Jozabad, chief of the Levites, gave to the Levites for Passover offerings five thousand from the flock and five hundred cattle.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:12 @ Then they removed the burnt offerings that they might give them to the divisions of the fathers' houses of the lay people, to offer to the LORD, as it is written in the Book of Moses. And so they did with the cattle.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:13 @ Also they roasted the Passover offerings with fire according to the ordinance; but the other holy offerings they boiled in pots, in caldrons, and in pans, and divided them quickly among all the lay people.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:14 @ Then afterward they prepared portions for themselves and for the priests, because the priests, the sons of Aaron, were busy in offering burnt offerings and fat until night; therefore the Levites prepared portions for themselves and for the priests, the sons of Aaron.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:18 @ There had been no Passover kept in Israel like that since the days of Samuel the prophet; and none of the kings of Israel had kept such a Passover as Josiah kept, with the priests and the Levites, all Judah and Israel who were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:23 @ And the archers shot King Josiah; and the king said to his servants, "Take me away, for I am severely wounded."

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:24 @ His servants therefore took him out of that chariot and put him in the second chariot that he had, and they brought him to Jerusalem. So he died, and was buried in one of the tombs of his fathers. And all Judah and Jerusalem mourned for Josiah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:36:1 @ Then the people of the land took Jehoahaz the son of Josiah, and made him king in his father's place in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:36:4 @ Then the king of Egypt made Jehoahaz's brother Eliakim king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz his brother and carried him off to Egypt.

nkjv@2Chronicles:36:10 @ At the turn of the year King Nebuchadnezzar summoned him and took him to Babylon, with the costly articles from the house of the LORD, and made Zedekiah, Jehoiakim's brother, king over Judah and Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:36:17 @ Therefore He brought against them the king of the Chaldeans, who killed their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary, and had no compassion on young man or virgin, on the aged or the weak; He gave them all into his hand.

nkjv@Ezra:3:12 @ But many of the priests and Levites and heads of the fathers' houses, old men who had seen the first temple, wept with a loud voice when the foundation of this temple was laid before their eyes. Yet many shouted aloud for joy,

nkjv@Ezra:4:2 @ they came to Zerubbabel and the heads of the fathers' houses, and said to them, "Let us build with you, for we seek your God as you do; and we have sacrificed to Him since the days of Esarhaddon king of Assyria, who brought us here."

nkjv@Ezra:4:20 @ There have also been mighty kings over Jerusalem, who have ruled over all the region beyond the River; and tax, tribute, and custom were paid to them.

nkjv@Ezra:5:12 @ But because our fathers provoked the God of heaven to wrath, He gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the Chaldean, who destroyed this temple and carried the people away to Babylon.

nkjv@Ezra:8:15 @ Now I gathered them by the river that flows to Ahava, and we camped there three days. And I looked among the people and the priests, and found none of the sons of Levi there.

nkjv@Ezra:8:18 @ Then, by the good hand of our God upon us, they brought us a man of understanding, of the sons of Mahli the son of Levi, the son of Israel, namely Sherebiah, with his sons and brothers, eighteen men;

nkjv@Ezra:8:19 @ and Hashabiah, and with him Jeshaiah of the sons of Merari, his brothers and their sons, twenty men;

nkjv@Ezra:8:21 @ Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river of Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek from Him the right way for us and our little ones and all our possessions.

nkjv@Ezra:8:24 @ And I separated twelve of the leaders of the priests--Sherebiah, Hashabiah, and ten of their brethren with them--

nkjv@Ezra:8:28 @ And I said to them, "You are holy to the LORD; the articles are holy also; and the silver and the gold are a freewill offering to the LORD God of your fathers.

nkjv@Ezra:8:29 @ Watch and keep them until you weigh them before the leaders of the priests and the Levites and heads of the fathers' houses of Israel in Jerusalem, in the chambers of the house of the LORD."

nkjv@Ezra:8:32 @ So we came to Jerusalem, and stayed there three days.

nkjv@Ezra:9:6 @ And I said: "O my God, I am too ashamed and humiliated to lift up my face to You, my God; for our iniquities have risen higher than our heads, and our guilt has grown up to the heavens.

nkjv@Ezra:9:7 @ Since the days of our fathers to this day we have been very guilty, and for our iniquities we, our kings, and our priests have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, to plunder, and to humiliation, as it is this day.

nkjv@Ezra:9:11 @ which You commanded by Your servants the prophets, saying, "The land which you are entering to possess is an unclean land, with the uncleanness of the peoples of the lands, with their abominations which have filled it from one end to another with their impurity.

nkjv@Ezra:9:12 @ Now therefore, do not give your daughters as wives for their sons, nor take their daughters to your sons; and never seek their peace or prosperity, that you may be strong and eat the good of the land, and leave it as an inheritance to your children forever.'

nkjv@Ezra:9:14 @ should we again break Your commandments, and join in marriage with the people committing these abominations? Would You not be angry with us until You had consumed us, so that there would be no remnant or survivor?

nkjv@Ezra:9:15 @ O LORD God of Israel, You are righteous, for we are left as a remnant, as it is this day. Here we are before You, in our guilt, though no one can stand before You because of this!"

nkjv@Ezra:10:1 @ Now while Ezra was praying, and while he was confessing, weeping, and bowing down before the house of God, a very large assembly of men, women, and children gathered to him from Israel; for the people wept very bitterly.

nkjv@Ezra:10:2 @ And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, spoke up and said to Ezra, "We have trespassed against our God, and have taken pagan wives from the peoples of the land; yet now there is hope in Israel in spite of this.

nkjv@Ezra:10:3 @ Now therefore, let us make a covenant with our God to put away all these wives and those who have been born to them, according to the advice of my master and of those who tremble at the commandment of our God; and let it be done according to the law.

nkjv@Ezra:10:6 @ Then Ezra rose up from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Jehohanan the son of Eliashib; and when he came there, he ate no bread and drank no water, for he mourned because of the guilt of those from the captivity.

nkjv@Ezra:10:7 @ And they issued a proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem to all the descendants of the captivity, that they must gather at Jerusalem,

nkjv@Ezra:10:9 @ So all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered at Jerusalem within three days. It was the ninth month, on the twentieth of the month; and all the people sat in the open square of the house of God, trembling because of this matter and because of heavy rain.

nkjv@Ezra:10:11 @ Now therefore, make confession to the LORD God of your fathers, and do His will; separate yourselves from the peoples of the land, and from the pagan wives."

nkjv@Ezra:10:13 @ But there are many people; it is the season for heavy rain, and we are not able to stand outside. Nor is this the work of one or two days, for there are many of us who have transgressed in this matter.

nkjv@Ezra:10:14 @ Please, let the leaders of our entire assembly stand; and let all those in our cities who have taken pagan wives come at appointed times, together with the elders and judges of their cities, until the fierce wrath of our God is turned away from us in this matter."

nkjv@Ezra:10:16 @ Then the descendants of the captivity did so. And Ezra the priest, with certain heads of the fathers' households, were set apart by the fathers' households, each of them by name; and they sat down on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.

nkjv@Ezra:10:18 @ And among the sons of the priests who had taken pagan wives the following were found of the sons of Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brothers: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, and Gedaliah.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:3 @ and said to the king, "May the king live forever! Why should my face not be sad, when the city, the place of my fathers' tombs, lies waste, and its gates are burned with fire?"

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:5 @ And I said to the king, "If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor in your sight, I ask that you send me to Judah, to the city of my fathers' tombs, that I may rebuild it."

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:7 @ Furthermore I said to the king, "If it pleases the king, let letters be given to me for the governors of the region beyond the River, that they must permit me to pass through till I come to Judah,

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:11 @ So I came to Jerusalem and was there three days.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:12 @ Then I arose in the night, I and a few men with me; I told no one what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem; nor was there any animal with me, except the one on which I rode.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:14 @ Then I went on to the Fountain Gate and to the King's Pool, but there was no room for the animal under me to pass.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:16 @ And the officials did not know where I had gone or what I had done; I had not yet told the Jews, the priests, the nobles, the officials, or the others who did the work.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:20 @ So I answered them, and said to them, "The God of heaven Himself will prosper us; therefore we His servants will arise and build, but you have no heritage or right or memorial in Jerusalem."

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:11 @ Malchijah the son of Harim and Hashub the son of Pahath-Moab repaired another section, as well as the Tower of the Ovens.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:18 @ After him their brethren, under Bavai the son of Henadad, leader of the other half of the district of Keilah, made repairs.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:19 @ And next to him Ezer the son of Jeshua, the leader of Mizpah, repaired another section in front of the Ascent to the Armory at the buttress.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:20 @ After him Baruch the son of Zabbai carefully repaired the other section, from the buttress to the door of the house of Eliashib the high priest.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:21 @ After him Meremoth the son of Urijah, the son of Koz, repaired another section, from the door of the house of Eliashib to the end of the house of Eliashib.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:24 @ After him Binnui the son of Henadad repaired another section, from the house of Azariah to the buttress, even as far as the corner.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:27 @ After them the Tekoites repaired another section, next to the great projecting tower, and as far as the wall of Ophel.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:30 @ After him Hananiah the son of Shelemiah, and Hanun, the sixth son of Zalaph, repaired another section. After him Meshullam the son of Berechiah made repairs in front of his dwelling.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:6 @ So we built the wall, and the entire wall was joined together up to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:8 @ and all of them conspired together to come and attack Jerusalem and create confusion.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:10 @ Then Judah said, "The strength of the laborers is failing, and there is so much rubbish that we are not able to build the wall."

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:11 @ And our adversaries said, "They will neither know nor see anything, till we come into their midst and kill them and cause the work to cease."

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:13 @ Therefore I positioned men behind the lower parts of the wall, at the openings; and I set the people according to their families, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:16 @ So it was, from that time on, that half of my servants worked at construction, while the other half held the spears, the shields, the bows, and wore armor; and the leaders were behind all the house of Judah.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:17 @ Those who built on the wall, and those who carried burdens, loaded themselves so that with one hand they worked at construction, and with the other held a weapon.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:19 @ Then I said to the nobles, the rulers, and the rest of the people, "The work is great and extensive, and we are separated far from one another on the wall.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:20 @ Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, rally to us there. Our God will fight for us."

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:23 @ So neither I, my brethren, my servants, nor the men of the guard who followed me took off our clothes, except that everyone took them off for washing.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:1 @ And there was a great outcry of the people and their wives against their Jewish brethren.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:2 @ For there were those who said, "We, our sons, and our daughters are many; therefore let us get grain, that we may eat and live."

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:3 @ There were also some who said, "We have mortgaged our lands and vineyards and houses, that we might buy grain because of the famine."

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:4 @ There were also those who said, "We have borrowed money for the king's tax on our lands and vineyards.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:5 @ Yet now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children as their children; and indeed we are forcing our sons and our daughters to be slaves, and some of our daughters have been brought into slavery. It is not in our power to redeem them, for other men have our lands and vineyards."

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:7 @ After serious thought, I rebuked the nobles and rulers, and said to them, "Each of you is exacting usury from his brother." So I called a great assembly against them.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:14 @ Moreover, from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year until the thirty-second year of King Artaxerxes, twelve years, neither I nor my brothers ate the governor's provisions.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:16 @ Indeed, I also continued the work on this wall, and we did not buy any land. All my servants were gathered there for the work.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:1 @ Now it happened when Sanballat, Tobiah, Geshem the Arab, and the rest of our enemies heard that I had rebuilt the wall, and that there were no breaks left in it (though at that time I had not hung the doors in the gates),

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:2 @ that Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, "Come, let us meet together among the villages in the plain of Ono." But they thought to do me harm.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:6 @ In it was written: It is reported among the nations, and Geshem says, that you and the Jews plan to rebel; therefore, according to these rumors, you are rebuilding the wall, that you may be their king.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:7 @ And you have also appointed prophets to proclaim concerning you at Jerusalem, saying, "There is a king in Judah!" Now these matters will be reported to the king. So come, therefore, and let us consult together.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:9 @ For they all were trying to make us afraid, saying, "Their hands will be weakened in the work, and it will not be done." Now therefore, O God, strengthen my hands.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:10 @ Afterward I came to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah, the son of Mehetabel, who was a secret informer; and he said, "Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us close the doors of the temple, for they are coming to kill you; indeed, at night they will come to kill you."

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:11 @ And I said, "Should such a man as I flee? And who is there such as I who would go into the temple to save his life? I will not go in!"

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:2 @ that I gave the charge of Jerusalem to my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the leader of the citadel, for he was a faithful man and feared God more than many.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:3 @ And I said to them, "Do not let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut and bar the doors; and appoint guards from among the inhabitants of Jerusalem, one at his watch station and another in front of his own house."

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:5 @ Then my God put it into my heart to gather the nobles, the rulers, and the people, that they might be registered by genealogy. And I found a register of the genealogy of those who had come up in the first return, and found written in it:

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:33 @ the men of the other Nebo, fifty-two;

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:34 @ the sons of the other Elam, one thousand two hundred and fifty-four;

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:57 @ The sons of Solomon's servants: the sons of Sotai, the sons of Sophereth, the sons of Perida,

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:59 @ the sons of Shephatiah, the sons of Hattil, the sons of Pochereth of Zebaim, and the sons of Amon.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:61 @ And these were the ones who came up from Tel Melah, Tel Harsha, Cherub, Addon, and Immer, but they could not identify their father's house nor their lineage, whether they were of Israel:

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:64 @ These sought their listing among those who were registered by genealogy, but it was not found; therefore they were excluded from the priesthood as defiled.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:66 @ Altogether the whole assembly was forty-two thousand three hundred and sixty,

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:67 @ besides their male and female servants, of whom there were seven thousand three hundred and thirty-seven; and they had two hundred and forty-five men and women singers.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:70 @ And some of the heads of the fathers' houses gave to the work. The governor gave to the treasury one thousand gold drachmas, fifty basins, and five hundred and thirty priestly garments.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:71 @ Some of the heads of the fathers' houses gave to the treasury of the work twenty thousand gold drachmas, and two thousand two hundred silver minas.

nkjv@Nehemiah:8:1 @ Now all the people gathered together as one man in the open square that was in front of the Water Gate; and they told Ezra the scribe to bring the Book of the Law of Moses, which the LORD had commanded Israel.

nkjv@Nehemiah:8:7 @ Also Jeshua, Bani, Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, helped the people to understand the Law; and the people stood in their place.

nkjv@Nehemiah:8:13 @ Now on the second day the heads of the fathers' houses of all the people, with the priests and Levites, were gathered to Ezra the scribe, in order to understand the words of the Law.

nkjv@Nehemiah:8:17 @ So the whole assembly of those who had returned from the captivity made booths and sat under the booths; for since the days of Joshua the son of Nun until that day the children of Israel had not done so. And there was very great gladness.

nkjv@Nehemiah:8:18 @ Also day by day, from the first day until the last day, he read from the Book of the Law of God. And they kept the feast seven days; and on the eighth day there was a sacred assembly, according to the prescribed manner.

nkjv@Nehemiah:9:2 @ Then those of Israelite lineage separated themselves from all foreigners; and they stood and confessed their sins and the iniquities of their fathers.

nkjv@Nehemiah:9:3 @ And they stood up in their place and read from the Book of the Law of the LORD their God for one-fourth of the day; and for another fourth they confessed and worshiped the LORD their God.

nkjv@Nehemiah:9:4 @ Then Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Chenani stood on the stairs of the Levites and cried out with a loud voice to the LORD their God.

nkjv@Nehemiah:9:5 @ And the Levites, Jeshua, Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah, said: "Stand up and bless the LORD your God Forever and ever! "Blessed be Your glorious name, Which is exalted above all blessing and praise!

nkjv@Nehemiah:11:1 @ Now the leaders of the people dwelt at Jerusalem; the rest of the people cast lots to bring one out of ten to dwell in Jerusalem, the holy city, and nine-tenths were to dwell in other cities.

nkjv@Nehemiah:12:22 @ During the reign of Darius the Persian, a record was also kept of the Levites and priests who had been heads of their fathers' houses in the days of Eliashib, Joiada, Johanan, and Jaddua.

nkjv@Nehemiah:12:28 @ And the sons of the singers gathered together from the countryside around Jerusalem, from the villages of the Netophathites,

nkjv@Nehemiah:12:38 @ The other thanksgiving choir went the opposite way, and I was behind them with half of the people on the wall, going past the Tower of the Ovens as far as the Broad Wall,

nkjv@Nehemiah:12:44 @ And at the same time some were appointed over the rooms of the storehouse for the offerings, the firstfruits, and the tithes, to gather into them from the fields of the cities the portions specified by the Law for the priests and Levites; for Judah rejoiced over the priests and Levites who ministered.

nkjv@Nehemiah:12:46 @ For in the days of David and Asaph of old there were chiefs of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgiving to God.

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:5 @ And he had prepared for him a large room, where previously they had stored the grain offerings, the frankincense, the articles, the tithes of grain, the new wine and oil, which were commanded to be given to the Levites and singers and gatekeepers, and the offerings for the priests.

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:8 @ And it grieved me bitterly; therefore I threw all the household goods of Tobiah out of the room.

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:11 @ So I contended with the rulers, and said, "Why is the house of God forsaken?" And I gathered them together and set them in their place.

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:16 @ Men of Tyre dwelt there also, who brought in fish and all kinds of goods, and sold them on the Sabbath to the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem.

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:18 @ Did not your fathers do thus, and did not our God bring all this disaster on us and on this city? Yet you bring added wrath on Israel by profaning the Sabbath."

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:24 @ And half of their children spoke the language of Ashdod, and could not speak the language of Judah, but spoke according to the language of one or the other people.

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:26 @ Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet among many nations there was no king like him, who was beloved of his God; and God made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless pagan women caused even him to sin.

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:28 @ And one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was a son-in-law of Sanballat the Horonite; therefore I drove him from me.

nkjv@Esther:1:1 @ Now it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus (this was the Ahasuerus who reigned over one hundred and twenty-seven provinces, from India to Ethiopia),

nkjv@Esther:1:2 @ in those days when King Ahasuerus sat on the throne of his kingdom, which was in Shushan the citadel,

nkjv@Esther:1:3 @ that in the third year of his reign he made a feast for all his officials and servants--the powers of Persia and Media, the nobles, and the princes of the provinces being before him--

nkjv@Esther:1:4 @ when he showed the riches of his glorious kingdom and the splendor of his excellent majesty for many days, one hundred and eighty days in all.

nkjv@Esther:1:5 @ And when these days were completed, the king made a feast lasting seven days for all the people who were present in Shushan the citadel, from great to small, in the court of the garden of the king's palace.

nkjv@Esther:1:6 @ There were white and blue linen curtains fastened with cords of fine linen and purple on silver rods and marble pillars; and the couches were of gold and silver on a mosaic pavement of alabaster, turquoise, and white and black marble.

nkjv@Esther:1:7 @ And they served drinks in golden vessels, each vessel being different from the other, with royal wine in abundance, according to the generosity of the king.

nkjv@Esther:1:8 @ In accordance with the law, the drinking was not compulsory; for so the king had ordered all the officers of his household, that they should do according to each man's pleasure.

nkjv@Esther:1:9 @ Queen Vashti also made a feast for the women in the royal palace which belonged to King Ahasuerus.

nkjv@Esther:1:10 @ On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus,

nkjv@Esther:1:11 @ to bring Queen Vashti before the king, wearing her royal crown, in order to show her beauty to the people and the officials, for she was beautiful to behold.

nkjv@Esther:1:12 @ But Queen Vashti refused to come at the king's command brought by his eunuchs; therefore the king was furious, and his anger burned within him.

nkjv@Esther:1:13 @ Then the king said to the wise men who understood the times (for this was the king's manner toward all who knew law and justice,

nkjv@Esther:1:14 @ those closest to him being Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who had access to the king's presence, and who ranked highest in the kingdom):

nkjv@Esther:1:15 @ "What shall we do to Queen Vashti, according to law, because she did not obey the command of King Ahasuerus brought to her by the eunuchs?"

nkjv@Esther:1:16 @ And Memucan answered before the king and the princes: "Queen Vashti has not only wronged the king, but also all the princes, and all the people who are in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus.

nkjv@Esther:1:17 @ For the queen's behavior will become known to all women, so that they will despise their husbands in their eyes, when they report, "King Ahasuerus commanded Queen Vashti to be brought in before him, but she did not come.'

nkjv@Esther:1:18 @ This very day the noble ladies of Persia and Media will say to all the king's officials that they have heard of the behavior of the queen. Thus there will be excessive contempt and wrath.

nkjv@Esther:1:19 @ If it pleases the king, let a royal decree go out from him, and let it be recorded in the laws of the Persians and the Medes, so that it will not be altered, that Vashti shall come no more before King Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal position to another who is better than she.

nkjv@Esther:1:20 @ When the king's decree which he will make is proclaimed throughout all his empire (for it is great), all wives will honor their husbands, both great and small."

nkjv@Esther:1:21 @ And the reply pleased the king and the princes, and the king did according to the word of Memucan.

nkjv@Esther:1:22 @ Then he sent letters to all the king's provinces, to each province in its own script, and to every people in their own language, that each man should be master in his own house, and speak in the language of his own people.

nkjv@Esther:2:1 @ After these things, when the wrath of King Ahasuerus subsided, he remembered Vashti, what she had done, and what had been decreed against her.

nkjv@Esther:2:2 @ Then the king's servants who attended him said: "Let beautiful young virgins be sought for the king;

nkjv@Esther:2:3 @ and let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather all the beautiful young virgins to Shushan the citadel, into the women's quarters, under the custody of Hegai the king's eunuch, custodian of the women. And let beauty preparations be given them.

nkjv@Esther:2:4 @ Then let the young woman who pleases the king be queen instead of Vashti." This thing pleased the king, and he did so.

nkjv@Esther:2:5 @ In Shushan the citadel there was a certain Jew whose name was Mordecai the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite.

nkjv@Esther:2:6 @ Kish had been carried away from Jerusalem with the captives who had been captured with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away.

nkjv@Esther:2:7 @ And Mordecai had brought up Hadassah, that is, Esther, his uncle's daughter, for she had neither father nor mother. The young woman was lovely and beautiful. When her father and mother died, Mordecai took her as his own daughter.

nkjv@Esther:2:8 @ So it was, when the king's command and decree were heard, and when many young women were gathered at Shushan the citadel, under the custody of Hegai, that Esther also was taken to the king's palace, into the care of Hegai the custodian of the women.

nkjv@Esther:2:9 @ Now the young woman pleased him, and she obtained his favor; so he readily gave beauty preparations to her, besides her allowance. Then seven choice maidservants were provided for her from the king's palace, and he moved her and her maidservants to the best place in the house of the women.

nkjv@Esther:2:10 @ Esther had not revealed her people or family, for Mordecai had charged her not to reveal it.

nkjv@Esther:2:11 @ And every day Mordecai paced in front of the court of the women's quarters, to learn of Esther's welfare and what was happening to her.

nkjv@Esther:2:12 @ Each young woman's turn came to go in to King Ahasuerus after she had completed twelve months' preparation, according to the regulations for the women, for thus were the days of their preparation apportioned: six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with perfumes and preparations for beautifying women.

nkjv@Esther:2:13 @ Thus prepared, each young woman went to the king, and she was given whatever she desired to take with her from the women's quarters to the king's palace.

nkjv@Esther:2:14 @ In the evening she went, and in the morning she returned to the second house of the women, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's eunuch who kept the concubines. She would not go in to the king again unless the king delighted in her and called for her by name.

nkjv@Esther:2:15 @ Now when the turn came for Esther the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her as his daughter, to go in to the king, she requested nothing but what Hegai the king's eunuch, the custodian of the women, advised. And Esther obtained favor in the sight of all who saw her.

nkjv@Esther:2:16 @ So Esther was taken to King Ahasuerus, into his royal palace, in the tenth month, which is the month of Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign.

nkjv@Esther:2:17 @ The king loved Esther more than all the other women, and she obtained grace and favor in his sight more than all the virgins; so he set the royal crown upon her head and made her queen instead of Vashti.

nkjv@Esther:2:18 @ Then the king made a great feast, the Feast of Esther, for all his officials and servants; and he proclaimed a holiday in the provinces and gave gifts according to the generosity of a king.

nkjv@Esther:2:19 @ When virgins were gathered together a second time, Mordecai sat within the king's gate.

nkjv@Esther:2:20 @ Now Esther had not revealed her family and her people, just as Mordecai had charged her, for Esther obeyed the command of Mordecai as when she was brought up by him.

nkjv@Esther:2:21 @ In those days, while Mordecai sat within the king's gate, two of the king's eunuchs, Bigthan and Teresh, doorkeepers, became furious and sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

nkjv@Esther:2:22 @ So the matter became known to Mordecai, who told Queen Esther, and Esther informed the king in Mordecai's name.

nkjv@Esther:2:23 @ And when an inquiry was made into the matter, it was confirmed, and both were hanged on a gallows; and it was written in the book of the chronicles in the presence of the king.

nkjv@Esther:3:1 @ After these things King Ahasuerus promoted Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him and set his seat above all the princes who were with him.

nkjv@Esther:3:2 @ And all the king's servants who were within the king's gate bowed and paid homage to Haman, for so the king had commanded concerning him. But Mordecai would not bow or pay homage.

nkjv@Esther:3:3 @ Then the king's servants who were within the king's gate said to Mordecai, "Why do you transgress the king's command?"

nkjv@Esther:3:4 @ Now it happened, when they spoke to him daily and he would not listen to them, that they told it to Haman, to see whether Mordecai's words would stand; for Mordecai had told them that he was a Jew.

nkjv@Esther:3:5 @ When Haman saw that Mordecai did not bow or pay him homage, Haman was filled with wrath.

nkjv@Esther:3:6 @ But he disdained to lay hands on Mordecai alone, for they had told him of the people of Mordecai. Instead, Haman sought to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus--the people of Mordecai.

nkjv@Esther:3:7 @ In the first month, which is the month of Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur (that is, the lot), before Haman to determine the day and the month, until it fell on the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar.

nkjv@Esther:3:8 @ Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, "There is a certain people scattered and dispersed among the people in all the provinces of your kingdom; their laws are different from all other people's, and they do not keep the king's laws. Therefore it is not fitting for the king to let them remain.

nkjv@Esther:3:9 @ If it pleases the king, let a decree be written that they be destroyed, and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who do the work, to bring it into the king's treasuries."

nkjv@Esther:3:10 @ So the king took his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:3:11 @ And the king said to Haman, "The money and the people are given to you, to do with them as seems good to you."

nkjv@Esther:3:12 @ Then the king's scribes were called on the thirteenth day of the first month, and a decree was written according to all that Haman commanded--to the king's satraps, to the governors who were over each province, to the officials of all people, to every province according to its script, and to every people in their language. In the name of King Ahasuerus it was written, and sealed with the king's signet ring.

nkjv@Esther:3:13 @ And the letters were sent by couriers into all the king's provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to annihilate all the Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar, and to plunder their possessions.

nkjv@Esther:3:14 @ A copy of the document was to be issued as law in every province, being published for all people, that they should be ready for that day.

nkjv@Esther:3:15 @ The couriers went out, hastened by the king's command; and the decree was proclaimed in Shushan the citadel. So the king and Haman sat down to drink, but the city of Shushan was perplexed.

nkjv@Esther:4:1 @ When Mordecai learned all that had happened, he tore his clothes and put on sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the midst of the city. He cried out with a loud and bitter cry.

nkjv@Esther:4:2 @ He went as far as the front of the king's gate, for no one might enter the king's gate clothed with sackcloth.

nkjv@Esther:4:3 @ And in every province where the king's command and decree arrived, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.

nkjv@Esther:4:4 @ So Esther's maids and eunuchs came and told her, and the queen was deeply distressed. Then she sent garments to clothe Mordecai and take his sackcloth away from him, but he would not accept them.

nkjv@Esther:4:5 @ Then Esther called Hathach, one of the king's eunuchs whom he had appointed to attend her, and she gave him a command concerning Mordecai, to learn what and why this was.

nkjv@Esther:4:6 @ So Hathach went out to Mordecai in the city square that was in front of the king's gate.

nkjv@Esther:4:7 @ And Mordecai told him all that had happened to him, and the sum of money that Haman had promised to pay into the king's treasuries to destroy the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:4:8 @ He also gave him a copy of the written decree for their destruction, which was given at Shushan, that he might show it to Esther and explain it to her, and that he might command her to go in to the king to make supplication to him and plead before him for her people.

nkjv@Esther:4:9 @ So Hathach returned and told Esther the words of Mordecai.

nkjv@Esther:4:10 @ Then Esther spoke to Hathach, and gave him a command for Mordecai:

nkjv@Esther:4:11 @ "All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that any man or woman who goes into the inner court to the king, who has not been called, he has but one law: put all to death, except the one to whom the king holds out the golden scepter, that he may live. Yet I myself have not been called to go in to the king these thirty days."

nkjv@Esther:4:12 @ So they told Mordecai Esther's words.

nkjv@Esther:4:13 @ And Mordecai told them to answer Esther: "Do not think in your heart that you will escape in the king's palace any more than all the other Jews.

nkjv@Esther:4:14 @ For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father's house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"

nkjv@Esther:4:15 @ Then Esther told them to reply to Mordecai:

nkjv@Esther:4:16 @ "Go, gather all the Jews who are present in Shushan, and fast for me; neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. My maids and I will fast likewise. And so I will go to the king, which is against the law; and if I perish, I perish!"

nkjv@Esther:4:17 @ So Mordecai went his way and did according to all that Esther commanded him.

nkjv@Esther:5:1 @ Now it happened on the third day that Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's palace, across from the king's house, while the king sat on his royal throne in the royal house, facing the entrance of the house.

nkjv@Esther:5:2 @ So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight, and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther went near and touched the top of the scepter.

nkjv@Esther:5:3 @ And the king said to her, "What do you wish, Queen Esther? What is your request? It shall be given to you--up to half the kingdom!"

nkjv@Esther:5:4 @ So Esther answered, "If it pleases the king, let the king and Haman come today to the banquet that I have prepared for him."

nkjv@Esther:5:5 @ Then the king said, "Bring Haman quickly, that he may do as Esther has said." So the king and Haman went to the banquet that Esther had prepared.

nkjv@Esther:5:6 @ At the banquet of wine the king said to Esther, "What is your petition? It shall be granted you. What is your request, up to half the kingdom? It shall be done!"

nkjv@Esther:5:7 @ Then Esther answered and said, "My petition and request is this:

nkjv@Esther:5:8 @ If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and fulfill my request, then let the king and Haman come to the banquet which I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said."

nkjv@Esther:5:9 @ So Haman went out that day joyful and with a glad heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, and that he did not stand or tremble before him, he was filled with indignation against Mordecai.

nkjv@Esther:5:10 @ Nevertheless Haman restrained himself and went home, and he sent and called for his friends and his wife Zeresh.

nkjv@Esther:5:11 @ Then Haman told them of his great riches, the multitude of his children, everything in which the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the officials and servants of the king.

nkjv@Esther:5:12 @ Moreover Haman said, "Besides, Queen Esther invited no one but me to come in with the king to the banquet that she prepared; and tomorrow I am again invited by her, along with the king.

nkjv@Esther:5:13 @ Yet all this avails me nothing, so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate."

nkjv@Esther:5:14 @ Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, "Let a gallows be made, fifty cubits high, and in the morning suggest to the king that Mordecai be hanged on it; then go merrily with the king to the banquet." And the thing pleased Haman; so he had the gallows made.

nkjv@Esther:6:1 @ That night the king could not sleep. So one was commanded to bring the book of the records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.

nkjv@Esther:6:2 @ And it was found written that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's eunuchs, the doorkeepers who had sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

nkjv@Esther:6:3 @ Then the king said, "What honor or dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?" And the king's servants who attended him said, "Nothing has been done for him."

nkjv@Esther:6:4 @ So the king said, "Who is in the court?" Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the king's palace to suggest that the king hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.

nkjv@Esther:6:5 @ The king's servants said to him, "Haman is there, standing in the court." And the king said, "Let him come in."

nkjv@Esther:6:6 @ So Haman came in, and the king asked him, "What shall be done for the man whom the king delights to honor?" Now Haman thought in his heart, "Whom would the king delight to honor more than me?"

nkjv@Esther:6:7 @ And Haman answered the king, "For the man whom the king delights to honor,

nkjv@Esther:6:8 @ let a royal robe be brought which the king has worn, and a horse on which the king has ridden, which has a royal crest placed on its head.

nkjv@Esther:6:9 @ Then let this robe and horse be delivered to the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, that he may array the man whom the king delights to honor. Then parade him on horseback through the city square, and proclaim before him: "Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!'

nkjv@Esther:6:10 @ Then the king said to Haman, "Hurry, take the robe and the horse, as you have suggested, and do so for Mordecai the Jew who sits within the king's gate! Leave nothing undone of all that you have spoken."

nkjv@Esther:6:11 @ So Haman took the robe and the horse, arrayed Mordecai and led him on horseback through the city square, and proclaimed before him, "Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!"

nkjv@Esther:6:12 @ Afterward Mordecai went back to the king's gate. But Haman hurried to his house, mourning and with his head covered.

nkjv@Esther:6:13 @ When Haman told his wife Zeresh and all his friends everything that had happened to him, his wise men and his wife Zeresh said to him, "If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against him but will surely fall before him."

nkjv@Esther:6:14 @ While they were still talking with him, the king's eunuchs came, and hastened to bring Haman to the banquet which Esther had prepared.

nkjv@Esther:7:1 @ So the king and Haman went to dine with Queen Esther.

nkjv@Esther:7:2 @ And on the second day, at the banquet of wine, the king again said to Esther, "What is your petition, Queen Esther? It shall be granted you. And what is your request, up to half the kingdom? It shall be done!"

nkjv@Esther:7:3 @ Then Queen Esther answered and said, "If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it pleases the king, let my life be given me at my petition, and my people at my request.

nkjv@Esther:7:4 @ For we have been sold, my people and I, to be destroyed, to be killed, and to be annihilated. Had we been sold as male and female slaves, I would have held my tongue, although the enemy could never compensate for the king's loss."

nkjv@Esther:7:5 @ So King Ahasuerus answered and said to Queen Esther, "Who is he, and where is he, who would dare presume in his heart to do such a thing?"

nkjv@Esther:7:6 @ And Esther said, "The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman!" So Haman was terrified before the king and queen.

nkjv@Esther:7:7 @ Then the king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden; but Haman stood before Queen Esther, pleading for his life, for he saw that evil was determined against him by the king.

nkjv@Esther:7:8 @ When the king returned from the palace garden to the place of the banquet of wine, Haman had fallen across the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, "Will he also assault the queen while I am in the house?" As the word left the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.

nkjv@Esther:7:9 @ Now Harbonah, one of the eunuchs, said to the king, "Look! The gallows, fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good on the king's behalf, is standing at the house of Haman." Then the king said, "Hang him on it!"

nkjv@Esther:7:10 @ So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king's wrath subsided.

nkjv@Esther:8:1 @ On that day King Ahasuerus gave Queen Esther the house of Haman, the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had told how he was related to her.

nkjv@Esther:8:2 @ So the king took off his signet ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai; and Esther appointed Mordecai over the house of Haman.

nkjv@Esther:8:3 @ Now Esther spoke again to the king, fell down at his feet, and implored him with tears to counteract the evil of Haman the Agagite, and the scheme which he had devised against the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:8:4 @ And the king held out the golden scepter toward Esther. So Esther arose and stood before the king,

nkjv@Esther:8:5 @ and said, "If it pleases the king, and if I have found favor in his sight and the thing seems right to the king and I am pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to annihilate the Jews who are in all the king's provinces.

nkjv@Esther:8:6 @ For how can I endure to see the evil that will come to my people? Or how can I endure to see the destruction of my countrymen?"

nkjv@Esther:8:7 @ Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and Mordecai the Jew, "Indeed, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and they have hanged him on the gallows because he tried to lay his hand on the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:8:8 @ You yourselves write a decree concerning the Jews, as you please, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's signet ring; for whatever is written in the king's name and sealed with the king's signet ring no one can revoke."

nkjv@Esther:8:9 @ So the king's scribes were called at that time, in the third month, which is the month of Sivan, on the twenty-third day; and it was written, according to all that Mordecai commanded, to the Jews, the satraps, the governors, and the princes of the provinces from India to Ethiopia, one hundred and twenty-seven provinces in all, to every province in its own script, to every people in their own language, and to the Jews in their own script and language.

nkjv@Esther:8:10 @ And he wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus, sealed it with the king's signet ring, and sent letters by couriers on horseback, riding on royal horses bred from swift steeds.

nkjv@Esther:8:11 @ By these letters the king permitted the Jews who were in every city to gather together and protect their lives--to destroy, kill, and annihilate all the forces of any people or province that would assault them, both little children and women, and to plunder their possessions,

nkjv@Esther:8:12 @ on one day in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, on the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar.

nkjv@Esther:8:13 @ A copy of the document was to be issued as a decree in every province and published for all people, so that the Jews would be ready on that day to avenge themselves on their enemies.

nkjv@Esther:8:14 @ The couriers who rode on royal horses went out, hastened and pressed on by the king's command. And the decree was issued in Shushan the citadel.

nkjv@Esther:8:15 @ So Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal apparel of blue and white, with a great crown of gold and a garment of fine linen and purple; and the city of Shushan rejoiced and was glad.

nkjv@Esther:8:16 @ The Jews had light and gladness, joy and honor.

nkjv@Esther:8:17 @ And in every province and city, wherever the king's command and decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a holiday. Then many of the people of the land became Jews, because fear of the Jews fell upon them.

nkjv@Esther:9:1 @ Now in the twelfth month, that is, the month of Adar, on the thirteenth day, the time came for the king's command and his decree to be executed. On the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, the opposite occurred, in that the Jews themselves overpowered those who hated them.

nkjv@Esther:9:2 @ The Jews gathered together in their cities throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus to lay hands on those who sought their harm. And no one could withstand them, because fear of them fell upon all people.

nkjv@Esther:9:3 @ And all the officials of the provinces, the satraps, the governors, and all those doing the king's work, helped the Jews, because the fear of Mordecai fell upon them.

nkjv@Esther:9:4 @ For Mordecai was great in the king's palace, and his fame spread throughout all the provinces; for this man Mordecai became increasingly prominent.

nkjv@Esther:9:5 @ Thus the Jews defeated all their enemies with the stroke of the sword, with slaughter and destruction, and did what they pleased with those who hated them.

nkjv@Esther:9:6 @ And in Shushan the citadel the Jews killed and destroyed five hundred men.

nkjv@Esther:9:7 @ Also Parshandatha, Dalphon, Aspatha,

nkjv@Esther:9:8 @ Poratha, Adalia, Aridatha,

nkjv@Esther:9:9 @ Parmashta, Arisai, Aridai, and Vajezatha--

nkjv@Esther:9:10 @ the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews--they killed; but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.

nkjv@Esther:9:11 @ On that day the number of those who were killed in Shushan the citadel was brought to the king.

nkjv@Esther:9:12 @ And the king said to Queen Esther, "The Jews have killed and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the citadel, and the ten sons of Haman. What have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? Now what is your petition? It shall be granted to you. Or what is your further request? It shall be done."

nkjv@Esther:9:13 @ Then Esther said, "If it pleases the king, let it be granted to the Jews who are in Shushan to do again tomorrow according to today's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged on the gallows."

nkjv@Esther:9:14 @ So the king commanded this to be done; the decree was issued in Shushan, and they hanged Haman's ten sons.

nkjv@Esther:9:15 @ And the Jews who were in Shushan gathered together again on the fourteenth day of the month of Adar and killed three hundred men at Shushan; but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.

nkjv@Esther:9:16 @ The remainder of the Jews in the king's provinces gathered together and protected their lives, had rest from their enemies, and killed seventy-five thousand of their enemies; but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.

nkjv@Esther:9:17 @ This was on the thirteenth day of the month of Adar. And on the fourteenth of the month they rested and made it a day of feasting and gladness.

nkjv@Esther:9:18 @ But the Jews who were at Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day, as well as on the fourteenth; and on the fifteenth of the month they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.

nkjv@Esther:9:19 @ Therefore the Jews of the villages who dwelt in the unwalled towns celebrated the fourteenth day of the month of Adar with gladness and feasting, as a holiday, and for sending presents to one another.

nkjv@Esther:9:20 @ And Mordecai wrote these things and sent letters to all the Jews, near and far, who were in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus,

nkjv@Esther:9:21 @ to establish among them that they should celebrate yearly the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month of Adar,

nkjv@Esther:9:22 @ as the days on which the Jews had rest from their enemies, as the month which was turned from sorrow to joy for them, and from mourning to a holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and joy, of sending presents to one another and gifts to the poor.

nkjv@Esther:9:23 @ So the Jews accepted the custom which they had begun, as Mordecai had written to them,

nkjv@Esther:9:24 @ because Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to annihilate them, and had cast Pur (that is, the lot), to consume them and destroy them;

nkjv@Esther:9:25 @ but when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letter that this wicked plot which Haman had devised against the Jews should return on his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.

nkjv@Esther:9:26 @ So they called these days Purim, after the name Pur. Therefore, because of all the words of this letter, what they had seen concerning this matter, and what had happened to them,

nkjv@Esther:9:27 @ the Jews established and imposed it upon themselves and their descendants and all who would join them, that without fail they should celebrate these two days every year, according to the written instructions and according to the prescribed time,

nkjv@Esther:9:28 @ that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city, that these days of Purim should not fail to be observed among the Jews, and that the memory of them should not perish among their descendants.

nkjv@Esther:9:29 @ Then Queen Esther, the daughter of Abihail, with Mordecai the Jew, wrote with full authority to confirm this second letter about Purim.

nkjv@Esther:9:30 @ And Mordecai sent letters to all the Jews, to the one hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,

nkjv@Esther:9:31 @ to confirm these days of Purim at their appointed time, as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther had prescribed for them, and as they had decreed for themselves and their descendants concerning matters of their fasting and lamenting.

nkjv@Esther:9:32 @ So the decree of Esther confirmed these matters of Purim, and it was written in the book.

nkjv@Esther:10:1 @ And King Ahasuerus imposed tribute on the land and on the islands of the sea.

nkjv@Esther:10:2 @ Now all the acts of his power and his might, and the account of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?

nkjv@Esther:10:3 @ For Mordecai the Jew was second to King Ahasuerus, and was great among the Jews and well received by the multitude of his brethren, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his countrymen.

nkjv@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil.

nkjv@Zechariah:4:2 @ And he said to me, "What do you see?" So I said, "I am looking, and there is a lampstand of solid gold with a bowl on top of it, and on the stand seven lamps with seven pipes to the seven lamps.

nkjv@Zechariah:4:3 @ Two olive trees are by it, one at the right of the bowl and the other at its left."

nkjv@Zechariah:4:12 @ And I further answered and said to him, "What are these two olive branches that drip into the receptacles of the two gold pipes from which the golden oil drains?"

nkjv@Zechariah:5:1 @ Then I turned and raised my eyes, and saw there a flying scroll.

nkjv@Zechariah:5:7 @ Here is a lead disc lifted up, and this is a woman sitting inside the basket";

nkjv@Zechariah:5:8 @ then he said, "This is Wickedness!" And he thrust her down into the basket, and threw the lead cover over its mouth.

nkjv@Zechariah:5:9 @ Then I raised my eyes and looked, and there were two women, coming with the wind in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and heaven.

nkjv@Zechariah:5:10 @ So I said to the angel who talked with me, "Where are they carrying the basket?"

nkjv@Zechariah:5:11 @ And he said to me, "To build a house for it in the land of Shinar; when it is ready, the basket will be set there on its base."

nkjv@Mark:5:21 @ Now when Jesus had crossed over again by boat to the other side, a great multitude gathered to Him; and He was by the sea.

nkjv@Mark:5:23 @ and begged Him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter lies at the point of death. Come and lay Your hands on her, that she may be healed, and she will live."

nkjv@Mark:5:26 @ and had suffered many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse.

nkjv@Mark:5:29 @ Immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.

nkjv@Mark:5:32 @ And He looked around to see her who had done this thing.

nkjv@Mark:5:33 @ But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth.

nkjv@Mark:5:34 @ And He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace, and be healed of your affliction."

nkjv@Mark:5:35 @ While He was still speaking, some came from the ruler of the synagogue's house who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?"

nkjv@Mark:5:37 @ And He permitted no one to follow Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

nkjv@Mark:5:40 @ And they ridiculed Him. But when He had put them all outside, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those who were with Him, and entered where the child was lying.

nkjv@Mark:5:41 @ Then He took the child by the hand, and said to her, "Talitha, cumi," which is translated, "Little girl, I say to you, arise."

nkjv@Mark:5:43 @ But He commanded them strictly that no one should know it, and said that something should be given her to eat.

nkjv@Mark:6:1 @ Then He went out from there and came to His own country, and His disciples followed Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:2 @ And when the Sabbath had come, He began to teach in the synagogue. And many hearing Him were astonished, saying, "Where did this Man get these things? And what wisdom is this which is given to Him, that such mighty works are performed by His hands!

nkjv@Mark:6:3 @ Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?" So they were offended at Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:5 @ Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them.

nkjv@Mark:6:10 @ Also He said to them, "In whatever place you enter a house, stay there till you depart from that place.

nkjv@Mark:6:11 @ And whoever will not receive you nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet as a testimony against them. Assuredly, I say to you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city!"

nkjv@Mark:6:14 @ Now King Herod heard of Him, for His name had become well known. And he said, "John the Baptist is risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him."

nkjv@Mark:6:15 @ Others said, "It is Elijah." And others said, "It is the Prophet, or like one of the prophets."

nkjv@Mark:6:16 @ But when Herod heard, he said, "This is John, whom I beheaded; he has been raised from the dead!"

nkjv@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent and laid hold of John, and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; for he had married her.

nkjv@Mark:6:18 @ Because John had said to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."

nkjv@Mark:6:19 @ Therefore Herodias held it against him and wanted to kill him, but she could not;

nkjv@Mark:6:20 @ for Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just and holy man, and he protected him. And when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.

nkjv@Mark:6:21 @ Then an opportune day came when Herod on his birthday gave a feast for his nobles, the high officers, and the chief men of Galilee.

nkjv@Mark:6:22 @ And when Herodias' daughter herself came in and danced, and pleased Herod and those who sat with him, the king said to the girl, "Ask me whatever you want, and I will give it to you."

nkjv@Mark:6:23 @ He also swore to her, "Whatever you ask me, I will give you, up to half my kingdom."

nkjv@Mark:6:24 @ So she went out and said to her mother, "What shall I ask?" And she said, "The head of John the Baptist!"

nkjv@Mark:6:26 @ And the king was exceedingly sorry; yet, because of the oaths and because of those who sat with him, he did not want to refuse her.

nkjv@Mark:6:28 @ brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl; and the girl gave it to her mother.

nkjv@Mark:6:30 @ Then the apostles gathered to Jesus and told Him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught.

nkjv@Mark:6:31 @ And He said to them, "Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while." For there were many coming and going, and they did not even have time to eat.

nkjv@Mark:6:33 @ But the multitudes saw them departing, and many knew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:34 @ And Jesus, when He came out, saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep not having a shepherd. So He began to teach them many things.

nkjv@Mark:6:45 @ Immediately He made His disciples get into the boat and go before Him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while He sent the multitude away.

nkjv@Mark:6:53 @ When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret and anchored there.

nkjv@Mark:6:55 @ ran through that whole surrounding region, and began to carry about on beds those who were sick to wherever they heard He was.

nkjv@Mark:6:56 @ Wherever He entered, into villages, cities, or the country, they laid the sick in the marketplaces, and begged Him that they might just touch the hem of His garment. And as many as touched Him were made well.

nkjv@Mark:7:1 @ Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem.

nkjv@Mark:7:4 @ When they come from the marketplace, they do not eat unless they wash. And there are many other things which they have received and hold, like the washing of cups, pitchers, copper vessels, and couches.

nkjv@Mark:7:8 @ For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men --the washing of pitchers and cups, and many other such things you do."

nkjv@Mark:7:10 @ For Moses said, "Honor your father and your mother'; and, "He who curses father or mother, let him be put to death.'

nkjv@Mark:7:11 @ But you say, "If a man says to his father or mother, "Whatever profit you might have received from me is Corban"--' (that is, a gift to God),

nkjv@Mark:7:12 @ then you no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother,

nkjv@Mark:7:15 @ There is nothing that enters a man from outside which can defile him; but the things which come out of him, those are the things that defile a man.

nkjv@Mark:7:24 @ From there He arose and went to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And He entered a house and wanted no one to know it, but He could not be hidden.

nkjv@Mark:7:26 @ The woman was a Greek, a Syro-Phoenician by birth, and she kept asking Him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

nkjv@Mark:7:27 @ But Jesus said to her, "Let the children be filled first, for it is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs."

nkjv@Mark:7:29 @ Then He said to her, "For this saying go your way; the demon has gone out of your daughter."

nkjv@Mark:7:30 @ And when she had come to her house, she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed.

nkjv@Mark:8:4 @ Then His disciples answered Him, "How can one satisfy these people with bread here in the wilderness?"

nkjv@Mark:8:13 @ And He left them, and getting into the boat again, departed to the other side.

nkjv@Mark:8:15 @ Then He charged them, saying, "Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod."

nkjv@Mark:8:26 @ Then He sent him away to his house, saying, "Neither go into the town, nor tell anyone in the town."

nkjv@Mark:8:28 @ So they answered, "John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others, one of the prophets."

nkjv@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels."

nkjv@Mark:9:1 @ And He said to them, "Assuredly, I say to you that there are some standing here who will not taste death till they see the kingdom of God present with power."

nkjv@Mark:9:5 @ Then Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--

nkjv@Mark:9:17 @ Then one of the crowd answered and said, "Teacher, I brought You my son, who has a mute spirit.

nkjv@Mark:9:18 @ And wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. So I spoke to Your disciples, that they should cast it out, but they could not."

nkjv@Mark:9:21 @ So He asked his father, "How long has this been happening to him?" And he said, "From childhood.

nkjv@Mark:9:24 @ Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, "Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!"

nkjv@Mark:9:25 @ When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "Deaf and dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter him no more!"

nkjv@Mark:9:30 @ Then they departed from there and passed through Galilee, and He did not want anyone to know it.

nkjv@Mark:9:38 @ Now John answered Him, saying, "Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow us."

nkjv@Mark:9:43 @ If your hand causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed, rather than having two hands, to go to hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched--

nkjv@Mark:9:45 @ And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched--

nkjv@Mark:9:46 @ where "Their worm does not die And the fire is not quenched.'

nkjv@Mark:9:47 @ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes, to be cast into hell fire--

nkjv@Mark:9:50 @ Salt is good, but if the salt loses its flavor, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace with one another."

nkjv@Mark:10:1 @ Then He arose from there and came to the region of Judea by the other side of the Jordan. And multitudes gathered to Him again, and as He was accustomed, He taught them again.

nkjv@Mark:10:4 @ They said, "Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce, and to dismiss her."

nkjv@Mark:10:7 @ "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife,

nkjv@Mark:10:9 @ Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate."

nkjv@Mark:10:11 @ So He said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her.

nkjv@Mark:10:12 @ And if a woman divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery."

nkjv@Mark:10:17 @ Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?"

nkjv@Mark:10:19 @ You know the commandments: "Do not commit adultery,' "Do not murder,' "Do not steal,' "Do not bear false witness,' "Do not defraud,' "Honor your father and your mother."'

nkjv@Mark:10:20 @ And he answered and said to Him, "Teacher, all these things I have kept from my youth."

nkjv@Mark:10:29 @ So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel's,

nkjv@Mark:10:35 @ Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, "Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask."

nkjv@Mark:10:37 @ They said to Him, "Grant us that we may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on Your left, in Your glory."

nkjv@Mark:11:3 @ And if anyone says to you, "Why are you doing this?' say, "The Lord has need of it,' and immediately he will send it here."

nkjv@Mark:11:5 @ But some of those who stood there said to them, "What are you doing, loosing the colt?"

nkjv@Mark:11:8 @ And many spread their clothes on the road, and others cut down leafy branches from the trees and spread them on the road.

nkjv@Mark:11:10 @ Blessed is the kingdom of our father David That comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"

nkjv@Mark:11:21 @ And Peter, remembering, said to Him, "Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away."

nkjv@Mark:11:33 @ So they answered and said to Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus answered and said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."

nkjv@Mark:12:4 @ Again he sent them another servant, and at him they threw stones, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.

nkjv@Mark:12:5 @ And again he sent another, and him they killed; and many others, beating some and killing some.

nkjv@Mark:12:6 @ Therefore still having one son, his beloved, he also sent him to them last, saying, "They will respect my son.'

nkjv@Mark:12:7 @ But those vinedressers said among themselves, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

nkjv@Mark:12:9 @ "Therefore what will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the vinedressers, and give the vineyard to others.

nkjv@Mark:12:14 @ When they had come, they said to Him, "Teacher, we know that You are true, and care about no one; for You do not regard the person of men, but teach the way of God in truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?

nkjv@Mark:12:18 @ Then some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him; and they asked Him, saying:

nkjv@Mark:12:19 @ "Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies, and leaves his wife behind, and leaves no children, his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.

nkjv@Mark:12:20 @ Now there were seven brothers. The first took a wife; and dying, he left no offspring.

nkjv@Mark:12:21 @ And the second took her, and he died; nor did he leave any offspring. And the third likewise.

nkjv@Mark:12:22 @ So the seven had her and left no offspring. Last of all the woman died also.

nkjv@Mark:12:23 @ Therefore, in the resurrection, when they rise, whose wife will she be? For all seven had her as wife."

nkjv@Mark:12:24 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "Are you not therefore mistaken, because you do not know the Scriptures nor the power of God?

nkjv@Mark:12:25 @ For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.

nkjv@Mark:12:27 @ He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living. You are therefore greatly mistaken."

nkjv@Mark:12:28 @ Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him, "Which is the first commandment of all?"

nkjv@Mark:12:31 @ And the second, like it, is this: "You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."

nkjv@Mark:12:32 @ So the scribe said to Him, "Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one God, and there is no other but He.

nkjv@Mark:13:2 @ And Jesus answered and said to him, "Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone shall be left upon another, that shall not be thrown down."

nkjv@Mark:13:8 @ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows.

nkjv@Mark:13:12 @ Now brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.

nkjv@Mark:13:14 @ "So when you see the "abomination of desolation,' spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not" (let the reader understand), "then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

nkjv@Luke:2:48 @ So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, "Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously."

nkjv@Luke:2:49 @ And He said to them, "Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father's business?"

nkjv@Luke:6:7 @ So the scribes and Pharisees watched Him closely, whether He would heal on the Sabbath, that they might find an accusation against Him.

nkjv@Luke:6:8 @ But He knew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the withered hand, "Arise and stand here." And he arose and stood.

nkjv@Luke:8:24 @ And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, "Master, Master, we are perishing!" Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm.

nkjv@Luke:8:25 @ But He said to them, "Where is your faith?" And they were afraid, and marveled, saying to one another, "Who can this be? For He commands even the winds and water, and they obey Him!"

nkjv@Luke:8:27 @ And when He stepped out on the land, there met Him a certain man from the city who had demons for a long time. And he wore no clothes, nor did he live in a house but in the tombs.

nkjv@Luke:8:32 @ Now a herd of many swine was feeding there on the mountain. So they begged Him that He would permit them to enter them. And He permitted them.

nkjv@Luke:8:33 @ Then the demons went out of the man and entered the swine, and the herd ran violently down the steep place into the lake and drowned.

nkjv@Luke:8:41 @ And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at Jesus' feet and begged Him to come to his house,

nkjv@Luke:8:43 @ Now a woman, having a flow of blood for twelve years, who had spent all her livelihood on physicians and could not be healed by any,

nkjv@Luke:8:51 @ When He came into the house, He permitted no one to go in except Peter, James, and John, and the father and mother of the girl.

nkjv@Luke:8:52 @ Now all wept and mourned for her; but He said, "Do not weep; she is not dead, but sleeping."

nkjv@Luke:8:54 @ But He put them all outside, took her by the hand and called, saying, "Little girl, arise."

nkjv@Luke:8:55 @ Then her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And He commanded that she be given something to eat.

nkjv@Luke:8:56 @ And her parents were astonished, but He charged them to tell no one what had happened.

nkjv@Luke:9:1 @ Then He called His twelve disciples together and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

nkjv@Luke:9:3 @ And He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece.

nkjv@Luke:9:4 @ "Whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart.

nkjv@Luke:9:7 @ Now Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by Him; and he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from the dead,

nkjv@Luke:9:8 @ and by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the old prophets had risen again.

nkjv@Luke:9:9 @ Herod said, "John I have beheaded, but who is this of whom I hear such things?" So he sought to see Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:12 @ When the day began to wear away, the twelve came and said to Him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding towns and country, and lodge and get provisions; for we are in a deserted place here."

nkjv@Luke:9:14 @ For there were about five thousand men. Then He said to His disciples, "Make them sit down in groups of fifty."

nkjv@Luke:9:19 @ So they answered and said, "John the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again."

nkjv@Luke:9:26 @ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Father's, and of the holy angels.

nkjv@Luke:9:27 @ But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Luke:9:33 @ Then it happened, as they were parting from Him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"--not knowing what he said.

nkjv@Luke:9:42 @ And as he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him. Then Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the child, and gave him back to his father.

nkjv@Luke:9:56 @ For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's lives but to save them." And they went to another village.

nkjv@Luke:9:57 @ Now it happened as they journeyed on the road, that someone said to Him, "Lord, I will follow You wherever You go."

nkjv@Luke:9:58 @ And Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."

nkjv@Luke:9:59 @ Then He said to another, "Follow Me." But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."

nkjv@Luke:9:61 @ And another also said, "Lord, I will follow You, but let me first go and bid them farewell who are at my house."

nkjv@Luke:10:1 @ After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go.

nkjv@Luke:10:2 @ Then He said to them, "The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.

nkjv@Luke:10:20 @ Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven."

nkjv@Luke:10:21 @ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in the Spirit and said, "I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and revealed them to babes. Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.

nkjv@Luke:10:32 @ Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side.

nkjv@Luke:10:33 @ But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had compassion.

nkjv@Luke:10:38 @ Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.

nkjv@Luke:10:40 @ But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, "Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me."

nkjv@Luke:18:18 @ Now a certain ruler asked Him, saying, "Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?"

nkjv@Luke:18:20 @ You know the commandments: "Do not commit adultery,' "Do not murder,' "Do not steal,' "Do not bear false witness,' "Honor your father and your mother."'

nkjv@Luke:19:2 @ Now behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector, and he was rich.

nkjv@Luke:19:11 @ Now as they heard these things, He spoke another parable, because He was near Jerusalem and because they thought the kingdom of God would appear immediately.

nkjv@Luke:19:12 @ Therefore He said: "A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom and to return.

nkjv@Luke:19:20 @ "Then another came, saying, "Master, here is your mina, which I have kept put away in a handkerchief.

nkjv@Luke:19:44 @ and level you, and your children within you, to the ground; and they will not leave in you one stone upon another, because you did not know the time of your visitation."

nkjv@Luke:20:1 @ Now it happened on one of those days, as He taught the people in the temple and preached the gospel, that the chief priests and the scribes, together with the elders, confronted Him

nkjv@Luke:20:7 @ So they answered that they did not know where it was from.

nkjv@Luke:20:8 @ And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things."

nkjv@Luke:20:11 @ Again he sent another servant; and they beat him also, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.

nkjv@Luke:20:14 @ But when the vinedressers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'

nkjv@Luke:20:16 @ He will come and destroy those vinedressers and give the vineyard to others." And when they heard it they said, "Certainly not!"

nkjv@Luke:20:21 @ Then they asked Him, saying, "Teacher, we know that You say and teach rightly, and You do not show personal favoritism, but teach the way of God in truth:

nkjv@Luke:20:25 @ And He said to them, "Render therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."

nkjv@Luke:20:27 @ Then some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, came to Him and asked Him,

nkjv@Luke:20:28 @ saying: "Teacher, Moses wrote to us that if a man's brother dies, having a wife, and he dies without children, his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.

nkjv@Luke:20:29 @ Now there were seven brothers. And the first took a wife, and died without children.

nkjv@Luke:20:30 @ And the second took her as wife, and he died childless.

nkjv@Luke:20:35 @ But those who are counted worthy to attain that age, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage;

nkjv@Luke:20:39 @ Then some of the scribes answered and said, "Teacher, You have spoken well."

nkjv@Luke:20:44 @ Therefore David calls Him "Lord'; how is He then his Son?"

nkjv@Luke:21:4 @ for all these out of their abundance have put in offerings for God, but she out of her poverty put in all the livelihood that she had."

nkjv@Luke:21:6 @ "These things which you see--the days will come in which not one stone shall be left upon another that shall not be thrown down."

nkjv@Luke:21:7 @ So they asked Him, saying, "Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?"

nkjv@Luke:21:8 @ And He said: "Take heed that you not be deceived. For many will come in My name, saying, "I am He,' and, "The time has drawn near.' Therefore do not go after them.

nkjv@Luke:21:11 @ And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.

nkjv@Luke:21:16 @ You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death.

nkjv@Luke:21:21 @ Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those who are in the midst of her depart, and let not those who are in the country enter her.

nkjv@Luke:21:23 @ But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath upon this people.

nkjv@Luke:21:36 @ Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man."

nkjv@Luke:22:9 @ So they said to Him, "Where do You want us to prepare?"

nkjv@Luke:22:10 @ And He said to them, "Behold, when you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he enters.

nkjv@Luke:22:11 @ Then you shall say to the master of the house, "The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?"'

nkjv@Luke:22:12 @ Then he will show you a large, furnished upper room; there make ready."

nkjv@Luke:22:24 @ Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest.

nkjv@Luke:22:29 @ And I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me,

nkjv@Luke:22:38 @ So they said, "Lord, look, here are two swords." And He said to them, "It is enough."

nkjv@Luke:22:42 @ saying, "Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done."

nkjv@Luke:22:55 @ Now when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them.

nkjv@Luke:22:58 @ And after a little while another saw him and said, "You also are of them." But Peter said, "Man, I am not!"

nkjv@Luke:22:59 @ Then after about an hour had passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, "Surely this fellow also was with Him, for he is a Galilean."

nkjv@Luke:22:65 @ And many other things they blasphemously spoke against Him.

nkjv@Luke:22:66 @ As soon as it was day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their council, saying,

nkjv@Luke:22:69 @ Hereafter the Son of Man will sit on the right hand of the power of God."

nkjv@Luke:22:71 @ And they said, "What further testimony do we need? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth."

nkjv@Luke:23:7 @ And as soon as he knew that He belonged to Herod's jurisdiction, he sent Him to Herod, who was also in Jerusalem at that time.

nkjv@Luke:23:8 @ Now when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad; for he had desired for a long time to see Him, because he had heard many things about Him, and he hoped to see some miracle done by Him.

nkjv@Luke:23:11 @ Then Herod, with his men of war, treated Him with contempt and mocked Him, arrayed Him in a gorgeous robe, and sent Him back to Pilate.

nkjv@Luke:23:12 @ That very day Pilate and Herod became friends with each other, for previously they had been at enmity with each other.

nkjv@Luke:23:13 @ Then Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests, the rulers, and the people,

nkjv@Luke:23:15 @ no, neither did Herod, for I sent you back to him; and indeed nothing deserving of death has been done by Him.

nkjv@Luke:23:16 @ I will therefore chastise Him and release Him"

nkjv@Luke:23:20 @ Pilate, therefore, wishing to release Jesus, again called out to them.

nkjv@Luke:23:22 @ Then he said to them the third time, "Why, what evil has He done? I have found no reason for death in Him. I will therefore chastise Him and let Him go."

nkjv@Luke:23:32 @ There were also two others, criminals, led with Him to be put to death.

nkjv@Luke:23:33 @ And when they had come to the place called Calvary, there they crucified Him, and the criminals, one on the right hand and the other on the left.

nkjv@Luke:23:34 @ Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do." And they divided His garments and cast lots.

nkjv@Luke:23:35 @ And the people stood looking on. But even the rulers with them sneered, saying, "He saved others; let Him save Himself if He is the Christ, the chosen of God."

nkjv@Luke:23:40 @ But the other, answering, rebuked him, saying, "Do you not even fear God, seeing you are under the same condemnation?

nkjv@Luke:23:44 @ Now it was about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.

nkjv@Luke:23:46 @ And when Jesus had cried out with a loud voice, He said, "Father, "into Your hands I commit My spirit."' Having said this, He breathed His last.

nkjv@Luke:23:48 @ And the whole crowd who came together to that sight, seeing what had been done, beat their breasts and returned.

nkjv@Luke:23:50 @ Now behold, there was a man named Joseph, a council member, a good and just man.

nkjv@Luke:23:53 @ Then he took it down, wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a tomb that was hewn out of the rock, where no one had ever lain before.

nkjv@Luke:24:1 @ Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

nkjv@Luke:24:6 @ He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee,

nkjv@Luke:24:10 @ It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told these things to the apostles.

nkjv@Luke:24:14 @ And they talked together of all these things which had happened.

nkjv@Luke:24:17 @ And He said to them, "What kind of conversation is this that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?"

nkjv@Luke:24:18 @ Then the one whose name was Cleopas answered and said to Him, "Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happened there in these days?"

nkjv@Luke:24:28 @ Then they drew near to the village where they were going, and He indicated that He would have gone farther.

nkjv@Luke:24:32 @ And they said to one another, "Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?"

nkjv@Luke:24:33 @ So they rose up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven and those who were with them gathered together,

nkjv@Luke:24:41 @ But while they still did not believe for joy, and marveled, He said to them, "Have you any food here?"

nkjv@Luke:24:49 @ Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high."

nkjv@John:1:6 @ There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

nkjv@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

nkjv@John:1:18 @ No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

nkjv@John:1:26 @ John answered them, saying, "I baptize with water, but there stands One among you whom you do not know.

nkjv@John:1:28 @ These things were done in Bethabara beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

nkjv@John:1:31 @ I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water."

nkjv@John:1:38 @ Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them, "What do you seek?" They said to Him, "Rabbi" (which is to say, when translated, Teacher), "where are You staying?"

nkjv@John:1:39 @ He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where He was staying, and remained with Him that day (now it was about the tenth hour).

nkjv@John:1:40 @ One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

nkjv@John:1:41 @ He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, "We have found the Messiah" (which is translated, the Christ).

nkjv@John:1:51 @ And He said to him, "Most assuredly, I say to you, hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man."

nkjv@John:2:1 @ On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

nkjv@John:2:3 @ And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, "They have no wine."

nkjv@John:2:4 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come."

nkjv@John:2:5 @ His mother said to the servants, "Whatever He says to you, do it."

nkjv@John:2:6 @ Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece.

nkjv@John:2:9 @ When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom.

nkjv@John:2:12 @ After this He went down to Capernaum, He, His mother, His brothers, and His disciples; and they did not stay there many days.

nkjv@John:2:16 @ And He said to those who sold doves, "Take these things away! Do not make My Father's house a house of merchandise!"

nkjv@John:2:22 @ Therefore, when He had risen from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this to them; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

nkjv@John:3:1 @ There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

nkjv@John:3:2 @ This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him."

nkjv@John:3:4 @ Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born?"

nkjv@John:3:8 @ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."

nkjv@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered and said to him, "Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not know these things?

nkjv@John:3:19 @ And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

nkjv@John:3:22 @ After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them and baptized.

nkjv@John:3:23 @ Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were baptized.

nkjv@John:3:25 @ Then there arose a dispute between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purification.

nkjv@John:3:29 @ He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled.

nkjv@John:3:35 @ The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand.

nkjv@John:4:1 @ Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John

nkjv@John:4:6 @ Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied from His journey, sat thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

nkjv@John:4:7 @ A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give Me a drink."

nkjv@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered and said to her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, "Give Me a drink,' you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water."

nkjv@John:4:11 @ The woman said to Him, "Sir, You have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. Where then do You get that living water?

nkjv@John:4:12 @ Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, as well as his sons and his livestock?"

nkjv@John:4:13 @ Jesus answered and said to her, "Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again,

nkjv@John:4:15 @ The woman said to Him, "Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw."

nkjv@John:4:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come here."

nkjv@John:4:17 @ The woman answered and said, "I have no husband." Jesus said to her, "You have well said, "I have no husband,'

nkjv@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where one ought to worship."

nkjv@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father.

nkjv@John:4:23 @ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.

nkjv@John:4:26 @ Jesus said to her, "I who speak to you am He."

nkjv@John:4:27 @ And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why are You talking with her?"

nkjv@John:4:28 @ The woman then left her waterpot, went her way into the city, and said to the men,

nkjv@John:4:33 @ Therefore the disciples said to one another, "Has anyone brought Him anything to eat?"

nkjv@John:4:35 @ Do you not say, "There are still four months and then comes the harvest'? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!

nkjv@John:4:36 @ And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.

nkjv@John:4:37 @ For in this the saying is true: "One sows and another reaps.'

nkjv@John:4:38 @ I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored, and you have entered into their labors."

nkjv@John:4:40 @ So when the Samaritans had come to Him, they urged Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.

nkjv@John:4:43 @ Now after the two days He departed from there and went to Galilee.

nkjv@John:4:46 @ So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

nkjv@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." And he himself believed, and his whole household.

nkjv@John:5:1 @ After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

nkjv@John:5:2 @ Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches.

nkjv@John:5:5 @ Now a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years.

nkjv@John:5:6 @ When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, "Do you want to be made well?"

nkjv@John:5:7 @ The sick man answered Him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me."

nkjv@John:5:10 @ The Jews therefore said to him who was cured, "It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed."

nkjv@John:5:17 @ But Jesus answered them, "My Father has been working until now, and I have been working."

nkjv@John:5:18 @ Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.

nkjv@John:5:19 @ Then Jesus answered and said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.

nkjv@John:5:20 @ For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

nkjv@John:5:21 @ For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will.

nkjv@John:5:22 @ For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son,

nkjv@John:5:23 @ that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

nkjv@John:5:26 @ For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,

nkjv@John:5:30 @ I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.

nkjv@John:5:32 @ There is another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness which He witnesses of Me is true.

nkjv@John:5:36 @ But I have a greater witness than John's; for the works which the Father has given Me to finish--the very works that I do--bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me.

nkjv@John:5:37 @ And the Father Himself, who sent Me, has testified of Me. You have neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form.

nkjv@John:5:43 @ I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.

nkjv@John:5:44 @ How can you believe, who receive honor from one another, and do not seek the honor that comes from the only God?

nkjv@John:5:45 @ Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you--Moses, in whom you trust.

nkjv@John:6:3 @ And Jesus went up on the mountain, and there He sat with His disciples.

nkjv@John:6:5 @ Then Jesus lifted up His eyes, and seeing a great multitude coming toward Him, He said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?"

nkjv@John:6:8 @ One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

nkjv@John:6:9 @ "There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?"

nkjv@John:6:10 @ Then Jesus said, "Make the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

nkjv@John:6:12 @ So when they were filled, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the fragments that remain, so that nothing is lost."

nkjv@John:6:13 @ Therefore they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

nkjv@John:6:15 @ Therefore when Jesus perceived that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, He departed again to the mountain by Himself alone.

nkjv@John:6:21 @ Then they willingly received Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.

nkjv@John:6:22 @ On the following day, when the people who were standing on the other side of the sea saw that there was no other boat there, except that one which His disciples had entered, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with His disciples, but His disciples had gone away alone--

nkjv@John:6:23 @ however, other boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks--

nkjv@John:6:24 @ when the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they also got into boats and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

nkjv@John:6:25 @ And when they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, "Rabbi, when did You come here?"

nkjv@John:6:27 @ Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him."

nkjv@John:6:30 @ Therefore they said to Him, "What sign will You perform then, that we may see it and believe You? What work will You do?

nkjv@John:6:31 @ Our fathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written, "He gave them bread from heaven to eat."'

nkjv@John:6:32 @ Then Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, but My Father gives you the true bread from heaven.

nkjv@John:6:37 @ All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.

nkjv@John:6:39 @ This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day.

nkjv@John:6:42 @ And they said, "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, "I have come down from heaven'?"

nkjv@John:6:43 @ Jesus therefore answered and said to them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.

nkjv@John:6:44 @ No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

nkjv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, "And they shall all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.

nkjv@John:6:46 @ Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God; He has seen the Father.

nkjv@John:6:49 @ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

nkjv@John:6:52 @ The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, "How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?"

nkjv@John:6:57 @ As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me.

nkjv@John:6:58 @ This is the bread which came down from heaven--not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever."

nkjv@John:6:60 @ Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this, said, "This is a hard saying; who can understand it?"

nkjv@John:6:62 @ What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend where He was before?

nkjv@John:6:64 @ But there are some of you who do not believe." For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who would betray Him.

nkjv@John:6:65 @ And He said, "Therefore I have said to you that no one can come to Me unless it has been granted to him by My Father."

nkjv@John:7:3 @ His brothers therefore said to Him, "Depart from here and go into Judea, that Your disciples also may see the works that You are doing.

nkjv@John:7:5 @ For even His brothers did not believe in Him.

nkjv@John:7:10 @ But when His brothers had gone up, then He also went up to the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

nkjv@John:7:11 @ Then the Jews sought Him at the feast, and said, "Where is He?"

nkjv@John:7:12 @ And there was much complaining among the people concerning Him. Some said, "He is good"; others said, "No, on the contrary, He deceives the people."

nkjv@John:7:17 @ If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.

nkjv@John:7:22 @ Moses therefore gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

nkjv@John:7:27 @ However, we know where this Man is from; but when the Christ comes, no one knows where He is from."

nkjv@John:7:28 @ Then Jesus cried out, as He taught in the temple, saying, "You both know Me, and you know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

nkjv@John:7:30 @ Therefore they sought to take Him; but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

nkjv@John:7:34 @ You will seek Me and not find Me, and where I am you cannot come."

nkjv@John:7:35 @ Then the Jews said among themselves, "Where does He intend to go that we shall not find Him? Does He intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

nkjv@John:7:36 @ What is this thing that He said, "You will seek Me and not find Me, and where I am you cannot come'?"

nkjv@John:7:40 @ Therefore many from the crowd, when they heard this saying, said, "Truly this is the Prophet."

nkjv@John:7:41 @ Others said, "This is the Christ." But some said, "Will the Christ come out of Galilee?

nkjv@John:7:42 @ Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the seed of David and from the town of Bethlehem, where David was?"

nkjv@John:7:43 @ So there was a division among the people because of Him.

nkjv@John:8:3 @ Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst,

nkjv@John:8:4 @ they said to Him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in adultery, in the very act.

nkjv@John:8:7 @ So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first."

nkjv@John:8:10 @ When Jesus had raised Himself up and saw no one but the woman, He said to her, "Woman, where are those accusers of yours? Has no one condemned you?"

nkjv@John:8:11 @ She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said to her, "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more."

nkjv@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees therefore said to Him, "You bear witness of Yourself; Your witness is not true."

nkjv@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going.

nkjv@John:8:16 @ And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me.

nkjv@John:8:18 @ I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me."

nkjv@John:8:19 @ Then they said to Him, "Where is Your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also."

nkjv@John:8:21 @ Then Jesus said to them again, "I am going away, and you will seek Me, and will die in your sin. Where I go you cannot come."

nkjv@John:8:22 @ So the Jews said, "Will He kill Himself, because He says, "Where I go you cannot come'?"

nkjv@John:8:24 @ Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."

nkjv@John:8:27 @ They did not understand that He spoke to them of the Father.

nkjv@John:8:28 @ Then Jesus said to them, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things.

nkjv@John:8:29 @ And He who sent Me is with Me. The Father has not left Me alone, for I always do those things that please Him."

nkjv@John:8:36 @ Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

nkjv@John:8:38 @ I speak what I have seen with My Father, and you do what you have seen with your father."

nkjv@John:8:39 @ They answered and said to Him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.

nkjv@John:8:41 @ You do the deeds of your father." Then they said to Him, "We were not born of fornication; we have one Father--God."

nkjv@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me.

nkjv@John:8:44 @ You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.

nkjv@John:8:47 @ He who is of God hears God's words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God."

nkjv@John:8:49 @ Jesus answered, "I do not have a demon; but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

nkjv@John:8:50 @ And I do not seek My own glory; there is One who seeks and judges.

nkjv@John:8:53 @ Are You greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead. Who do You make Yourself out to be?"

nkjv@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, "If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing. It is My Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is your God.

nkjv@John:8:56 @ Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."

nkjv@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him.

nkjv@John:9:8 @ Therefore the neighbors and those who previously had seen that he was blind said, "Is not this he who sat and begged?"

nkjv@John:9:9 @ Some said, "This is he." Others said, "He is like him." He said, "I am he."

nkjv@John:9:10 @ Therefore they said to him, "How were your eyes opened?"

nkjv@John:9:12 @ Then they said to him, "Where is He?" He said, "I do not know."

nkjv@John:9:16 @ Therefore some of the Pharisees said, "This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" And there was a division among them.

nkjv@John:9:23 @ Therefore his parents said, "He is of age; ask him."

nkjv@John:9:25 @ He answered and said, "Whether He is a sinner or not I do not know. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see."

nkjv@John:9:29 @ We know that God spoke to Moses; as for this fellow, we do not know where He is from."

nkjv@John:9:30 @ The man answered and said to them, "Why, this is a marvelous thing, that you do not know where He is from; yet He has opened my eyes!

nkjv@John:9:41 @ Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, "We see.' Therefore your sin remains.

nkjv@John:10:1 @ "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

nkjv@John:10:11 @ "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.

nkjv@John:10:12 @ But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scatters them.

nkjv@John:10:14 @ I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own.

nkjv@John:10:15 @ As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father; and I lay down My life for the sheep.

nkjv@John:10:16 @ And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flock and one shepherd.

nkjv@John:10:19 @ Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these sayings.

nkjv@John:10:21 @ Others said, "These are not the words of one who has a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"

nkjv@John:10:38 @ but if I do, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him."

nkjv@John:10:39 @ Therefore they sought again to seize Him, but He escaped out of their hand.

nkjv@John:10:40 @ And He went away again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptizing at first, and there He stayed.

nkjv@John:10:42 @ And many believed in Him there.

nkjv@John:11:1 @ Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

nkjv@John:11:2 @ It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

nkjv@John:11:3 @ Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, "Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick."

nkjv@John:11:5 @ Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

nkjv@John:11:6 @ So, when He heard that he was sick, He stayed two more days in the place where He was.

nkjv@John:11:8 @ The disciples said to Him, "Rabbi, lately the Jews sought to stone You, and are You going there again?"

nkjv@John:11:15 @ And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him."

nkjv@John:11:19 @ And many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.

nkjv@John:11:21 @ Now Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

nkjv@John:11:23 @ Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

nkjv@John:11:25 @ Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.

nkjv@John:11:28 @ And when she had said these things, she went her way and secretly called Mary her sister, saying, "The Teacher has come and is calling for you."

nkjv@John:11:30 @ Now Jesus had not yet come into the town, but was in the place where Martha met Him.

nkjv@John:11:31 @ Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and comforting her, when they saw that Mary rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, "She is going to the tomb to weep there."

nkjv@John:11:32 @ Then, when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying to Him, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died."

nkjv@John:11:33 @ Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled.

nkjv@John:11:34 @ And He said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to Him, "Lord, come and see."

nkjv@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."

nkjv@John:11:40 @ Jesus said to her, "Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?"

nkjv@John:11:41 @ Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

nkjv@John:12:7 @ But Jesus said, "Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of My burial.

nkjv@John:12:9 @ Now a great many of the Jews knew that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.

nkjv@John:12:17 @ Therefore the people, who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of his tomb and raised him from the dead, bore witness.

nkjv@John:13:1 @ Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

nkjv@John:13:3 @ Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God,

nkjv@John:15:15 @ No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you.

nkjv@John:15:16 @ You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

nkjv@John:15:17 @ These things I command you, that you love one another.

nkjv@John:15:19 @ If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

nkjv@John:18:1 @ When Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with His disciples over the Brook Kidron, where there was a garden, which He and His disciples entered.

nkjv@John:18:2 @ And Judas, who betrayed Him, also knew the place; for Jesus often met there with His disciples.

nkjv@John:18:3 @ Then Judas, having received a detachment of troops, and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons.

nkjv@John:18:4 @ Jesus therefore, knowing all things that would come upon Him, went forward and said to them, "Whom are you seeking?"

nkjv@John:18:8 @ Jesus answered, "I have told you that I am He. Therefore, if you seek Me, let these go their way,"

nkjv@John:18:11 @ So Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me?"

nkjv@John:18:13 @ And they led Him away to Annas first, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was high priest that year.

nkjv@John:18:15 @ And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.

nkjv@John:18:16 @ But Peter stood at the door outside. Then the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought Peter in.

nkjv@John:18:18 @ Now the servants and officers who had made a fire of coals stood there, for it was cold, and they warmed themselves. And Peter stood with them and warmed himself.

nkjv@John:18:20 @ Jesus answered him, "I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where the Jews always meet, and in secret I have said nothing.

nkjv@John:18:25 @ Now Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. Therefore they said to him, "You are not also one of His disciples, are you?" He denied it and said, "I am not!"

nkjv@John:18:31 @ Then Pilate said to them, "You take Him and judge Him according to your law." Therefore the Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,"

nkjv@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered him, "Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this concerning Me?"

nkjv@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here."

nkjv@John:18:37 @ Pilate therefore said to Him, "Are You a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say rightly that I am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice."

nkjv@John:18:39 @ "But you have a custom that I should release someone to you at the Passover. Do you therefore want me to release to you the King of the Jews?"

nkjv@John:19:6 @ Therefore, when the chief priests and officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, "Crucify Him, crucify Him!" Pilate said to them, "You take Him and crucify Him, for I find no fault in Him."

nkjv@John:19:8 @ Therefore, when Pilate heard that saying, he was the more afraid,

nkjv@John:19:9 @ and went again into the Praetorium, and said to Jesus, "Where are You from?" But Jesus gave him no answer.

nkjv@John:19:11 @ Jesus answered, "You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore the one who delivered Me to you has the greater sin."

nkjv@John:19:13 @ When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus out and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called The Pavement, but in Hebrew, Gabbatha.

nkjv@John:19:18 @ where they crucified Him, and two others with Him, one on either side, and Jesus in the center.

nkjv@John:19:20 @ Then many of the Jews read this title, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city; and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin.

nkjv@John:19:21 @ Therefore the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write, "The King of the Jews,' but, "He said, "I am the King of the Jews.""'

nkjv@John:19:24 @ They said therefore among themselves, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be," that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says: "They divided My garments among them, And for My clothing they cast lots." Therefore the soldiers did these things.

nkjv@John:19:25 @ Now there stood by the cross of Jesus His mother, and His mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.

nkjv@John:19:26 @ When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, "Woman, behold your son!"

nkjv@John:19:27 @ Then He said to the disciple, "Behold your mother!" And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home.

nkjv@John:19:29 @ Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth.

nkjv@John:19:31 @ Therefore, because it was the Preparation Day, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

nkjv@John:19:32 @ Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with Him.

nkjv@John:19:37 @ And again another Scripture says, "They shall look on Him whom they pierced."

nkjv@John:19:41 @ Now in the place where He was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.

nkjv@John:19:42 @ So there they laid Jesus, because of the Jews' Preparation Day, for the tomb was nearby.

nkjv@John:20:2 @ Then she ran and came to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and said to them, "They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid Him."

nkjv@John:20:3 @ Peter therefore went out, and the other disciple, and were going to the tomb.

nkjv@John:20:4 @ So they both ran together, and the other disciple outran Peter and came to the tomb first.

nkjv@John:20:5 @ And he, stooping down and looking in, saw the linen cloths lying there; yet he did not go in.

nkjv@John:20:6 @ Then Simon Peter came, following him, and went into the tomb; and he saw the linen cloths lying there,

nkjv@John:20:7 @ and the handkerchief that had been around His head, not lying with the linen cloths, but folded together in a place by itself.

nkjv@John:20:8 @ Then the other disciple, who came to the tomb first, went in also; and he saw and believed.

nkjv@John:20:12 @ And she saw two angels in white sitting, one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

nkjv@John:20:13 @ Then they said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him."

nkjv@John:20:14 @ Now when she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, and did not know that it was Jesus.

nkjv@John:20:15 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?" She, supposing Him to be the gardener, said to Him, "Sir, if You have carried Him away, tell me where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away."

nkjv@John:20:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Mary!" She turned and said to Him, "Rabboni!" (which is to say, Teacher).

nkjv@John:20:17 @ Jesus said to her, "Do not cling to Me, for I have not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say to them, "I am ascending to My Father and your Father, and to My God and your God."'

nkjv@John:20:18 @ Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken these things to her.

nkjv@John:20:19 @ Then, the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled, for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst, and said to them, "Peace be with you."

nkjv@John:20:21 @ So Jesus said to them again, "Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you."

nkjv@John:20:25 @ The other disciples therefore said to him, "We have seen the Lord." So he said to them, "Unless I see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and put my hand into His side, I will not believe."

nkjv@John:20:27 @ Then He said to Thomas, "Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing."

nkjv@John:20:30 @ And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book;

nkjv@John:21:2 @ Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together.

nkjv@John:21:7 @ Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (for he had removed it), and plunged into the sea.

nkjv@John:21:8 @ But the other disciples came in the little boat (for they were not far from land, but about two hundred cubits), dragging the net with fish.

nkjv@John:21:9 @ Then, as soon as they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread.

nkjv@John:21:11 @ Simon Peter went up and dragged the net to land, full of large fish, one hundred and fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not broken.

nkjv@John:21:18 @ Most assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish."

nkjv@John:21:25 @ And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.

nkjv@Acts:1:4 @ And being assembled together with them, He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the Promise of the Father, "which," He said, "you have heard from Me;

nkjv@Acts:1:6 @ Therefore, when they had come together, they asked Him, saying, "Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?"

nkjv@Acts:1:7 @ And He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority.

nkjv@Acts:1:13 @ And when they had entered, they went up into the upper room where they were staying: Peter, James, John, and Andrew; Philip and Thomas; Bartholomew and Matthew; James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot; and Judas the son of James.

nkjv@Acts:1:14 @ These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.

nkjv@Acts:1:15 @ And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples (altogether the number of names was about a hundred and twenty), and said,

nkjv@Acts:1:20 @ "For it is written in the Book of Psalms: "Let his dwelling place be desolate, And let no one live in it'; and, "Let another take his office.'

nkjv@Acts:1:21 @ "Therefore, of these men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,

nkjv@Acts:2:2 @ And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.

nkjv@Acts:2:3 @ Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them.

nkjv@Acts:2:4 @ And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

nkjv@Acts:2:5 @ And there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under heaven.

nkjv@Acts:2:6 @ And when this sound occurred, the multitude came together, and were confused, because everyone heard them speak in his own language.

nkjv@Acts:2:7 @ Then they were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, "Look, are not all these who speak Galileans?

nkjv@Acts:2:12 @ So they were all amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, "Whatever could this mean?"

nkjv@Acts:2:13 @ Others mocking said, "They are full of new wine."

nkjv@Acts:2:26 @ Therefore my heart rejoiced, and my tongue was glad; Moreover my flesh also will rest in hope.

nkjv@Acts:2:30 @ Therefore, being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of the fruit of his body, according to the flesh, He would raise up the Christ to sit on his throne,

nkjv@Acts:2:33 @ Therefore being exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He poured out this which you now see and hear.

nkjv@Acts:2:36 @ "Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ."

nkjv@Acts:2:40 @ And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, "Be saved from this perverse generation."

nkjv@Acts:2:44 @ Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common,

nkjv@Acts:3:1 @ Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.

nkjv@Acts:3:2 @ And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered the temple;

nkjv@Acts:8:27 @ So he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasury, and had come to Jerusalem to worship,

nkjv@Acts:8:34 @ So the eunuch answered Philip and said, "I ask you, of whom does the prophet say this, of himself or of some other man?"

nkjv@Acts:8:36 @ Now as they went down the road, they came to some water. And the eunuch said, "See, here is water. What hinders me from being baptized?"

nkjv@Acts:9:2 @ and asked letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, so that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:9:9 @ And he was three days without sight, and neither ate nor drank.

nkjv@Acts:9:10 @ Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias; and to him the Lord said in a vision, "Ananias." And he said, "Here I am, Lord."

nkjv@Acts:9:14 @ And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all who call on Your name."

nkjv@Acts:9:17 @ And Ananias went his way and entered the house; and laying his hands on him he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit."

nkjv@Acts:9:18 @ Immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he received his sight at once; and he arose and was baptized.

nkjv@Acts:9:21 @ Then all who heard were amazed, and said, "Is this not he who destroyed those who called on this name in Jerusalem, and has come here for that purpose, so that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?"

nkjv@Acts:9:33 @ There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden eight years and was paralyzed.

nkjv@Acts:9:36 @ At Joppa there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which is translated Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and charitable deeds which she did.

nkjv@Acts:9:37 @ But it happened in those days that she became sick and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in an upper room.

nkjv@Acts:9:38 @ And since Lydda was near Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent two men to him, imploring him not to delay in coming to them.

nkjv@Acts:9:40 @ But Peter put them all out, and knelt down and prayed. And turning to the body he said, "Tabitha, arise." And she opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter she sat up.

nkjv@Acts:9:41 @ Then he gave her his hand and lifted her up; and when he had called the saints and widows, he presented her alive.

nkjv@Acts:10:1 @ There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,

nkjv@Acts:10:18 @ And they called and asked whether Simon, whose surname was Peter, was lodging there.

nkjv@Acts:10:20 @ Arise therefore, go down and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them."

nkjv@Acts:10:24 @ And the following day they entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was waiting for them, and had called together his relatives and close friends.

nkjv@Acts:10:27 @ And as he talked with him, he went in and found many who had come together.

nkjv@Acts:10:28 @ Then he said to them, "You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.

nkjv@Acts:10:29 @ Therefore I came without objection as soon as I was sent for. I ask, then, for what reason have you sent for me?"

nkjv@Acts:10:32 @ Send therefore to Joppa and call Simon here, whose surname is Peter. He is lodging in the house of Simon, a tanner, by the sea. When he comes, he will speak to you.'

nkjv@Acts:10:33 @ So I sent to you immediately, and you have done well to come. Now therefore, we are all present before God, to hear all the things commanded you by God."

nkjv@Acts:11:11 @ At that very moment, three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent to me from Caesarea.

nkjv@Acts:11:17 @ If therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?"

nkjv@Acts:11:28 @ Then one of them, named Agabus, stood up and showed by the Spirit that there was going to be a great famine throughout all the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius Caesar.

nkjv@Acts:12:1 @ Now about that time Herod the king stretched out his hand to harass some from the church.

nkjv@Acts:12:2 @ Then he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

nkjv@Acts:12:3 @ And because he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to seize Peter also. Now it was during the Days of Unleavened Bread.

nkjv@Acts:12:5 @ Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church.

nkjv@Acts:12:6 @ And when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers; and the guards before the door were keeping the prison.

nkjv@Acts:12:11 @ And when Peter had come to himself, he said, "Now I know for certain that the Lord has sent His angel, and has delivered me from the hand of Herod and from all the expectation of the Jewish people."

nkjv@Acts:12:12 @ So, when he had considered this, he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark, where many were gathered together praying.

nkjv@Acts:12:14 @ When she recognized Peter's voice, because of her gladness she did not open the gate, but ran in and announced that Peter stood before the gate.

nkjv@Acts:12:15 @ But they said to her, "You are beside yourself!" Yet she kept insisting that it was so. So they said, "It is his angel."

nkjv@Acts:12:17 @ But motioning to them with his hand to keep silent, he declared to them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, "Go, tell these things to James and to the brethren." And he departed and went to another place.

nkjv@Acts:12:18 @ Then, as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.

nkjv@Acts:12:19 @ But when Herod had searched for him and not found him, he examined the guards and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.

nkjv@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod had been very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; but they came to him with one accord, and having made Blastus the king's personal aide their friend, they asked for peace, because their country was supplied with food by the king's country.

nkjv@Acts:12:21 @ So on a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat on his throne and gave an oration to them.

nkjv@Acts:13:1 @ Now in the church that was at Antioch there were certain prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

nkjv@Acts:13:4 @ So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia, and from there they sailed to Cyprus.

nkjv@Acts:13:17 @ The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with an uplifted arm He brought them out of it.

nkjv@Acts:13:25 @ And as John was finishing his course, he said, "Who do you think I am? I am not He. But behold, there comes One after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.'

nkjv@Acts:13:32 @ And we declare to you glad tidings--that promise which was made to the fathers.

nkjv@Acts:13:35 @ Therefore He also says in another Psalm: "You will not allow Your Holy One to see corruption.'

nkjv@Acts:13:36 @ "For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, was buried with his fathers, and saw corruption;

nkjv@Acts:13:38 @ Therefore let it be known to you, brethren, that through this Man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins;

nkjv@Acts:13:40 @ Beware therefore, lest what has been spoken in the prophets come upon you:

nkjv@Acts:13:44 @ On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.

nkjv@Acts:14:1 @ Now it happened in Iconium that they went together to the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude both of the Jews and of the Greeks believed.

nkjv@Acts:14:3 @ Therefore they stayed there a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who was bearing witness to the word of His grace, granting signs and wonders to be done by their hands.

nkjv@Acts:14:7 @ And they were preaching the gospel there.

nkjv@Acts:14:8 @ And in Lystra a certain man without strength in his feet was sitting, a cripple from his mother's womb, who had never walked.

nkjv@Acts:14:12 @ And Barnabas they called Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.

nkjv@Acts:14:19 @ Then Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there; and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

nkjv@Acts:14:20 @ However, when the disciples gathered around him, he rose up and went into the city. And the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.

nkjv@Acts:14:26 @ From there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had completed.

nkjv@Acts:14:27 @ Now when they had come and gathered the church together, they reported all that God had done with them, and that He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.

nkjv@Acts:14:28 @ So they stayed there a long time with the disciples.

nkjv@Acts:15:2 @ Therefore, when Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and dispute with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them should go up to Jerusalem, to the apostles and elders, about this question.

nkjv@Acts:15:6 @ Now the apostles and elders came together to consider this matter.

nkjv@Acts:15:7 @ And when there had been much dispute, Peter rose up and said to them: "Men and brethren, you know that a good while ago God chose among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe.

nkjv@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore, why do you test God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

nkjv@Acts:15:19 @ Therefore I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God,

nkjv@Acts:15:27 @ We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who will also report the same things by word of mouth.

nkjv@Acts:15:30 @ So when they were sent off, they came to Antioch; and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the letter.

nkjv@Acts:15:33 @ And after they had stayed there for a time, they were sent back with greetings from the brethren to the apostles.

nkjv@Acts:15:34 @ However, it seemed good to Silas to remain there.

nkjv@Acts:15:35 @ Paul and Barnabas also remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.

nkjv@Acts:15:36 @ Then after some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Let us now go back and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, and see how they are doing."

nkjv@Acts:15:39 @ Then the contention became so sharp that they parted from one another. And so Barnabas took Mark and sailed to Cyprus;

nkjv@Acts:16:1 @ Then he came to Derbe and Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a certain Jewish woman who believed, but his father was Greek.

nkjv@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wanted to have him go on with him. And he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in that region, for they all knew that his father was Greek.

nkjv@Acts:16:11 @ Therefore, sailing from Troas, we ran a straight course to Samothrace, and the next day came to Neapolis,

nkjv@Acts:16:12 @ and from there to Philippi, which is the foremost city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city for some days.

nkjv@Acts:16:13 @ And on the Sabbath day we went out of the city to the riverside, where prayer was customarily made; and we sat down and spoke to the women who met there.

nkjv@Acts:16:14 @ Now a certain woman named Lydia heard us. She was a seller of purple from the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God. The Lord opened her heart to heed the things spoken by Paul.

nkjv@Acts:16:15 @ And when she and her household were baptized, she begged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." So she persuaded us.

nkjv@Acts:16:16 @ Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling.

nkjv@Acts:16:18 @ And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her." And he came out that very hour.

nkjv@Acts:16:19 @ But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace to the authorities.

nkjv@Acts:16:22 @ Then the multitude rose up together against them; and the magistrates tore off their clothes and commanded them to be beaten with rods.

nkjv@Acts:16:26 @ Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were loosed.

nkjv@Acts:16:28 @ But Paul called with a loud voice, saying, "Do yourself no harm, for we are all here."

nkjv@Acts:16:36 @ So the keeper of the prison reported these words to Paul, saying, "The magistrates have sent to let you go. Now therefore depart, and go in peace."

nkjv@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:17:5 @ But the Jews who were not persuaded, becoming envious, took some of the evil men from the marketplace, and gathering a mob, set all the city in an uproar and attacked the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.

nkjv@Acts:17:6 @ But when they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some brethren to the rulers of the city, crying out, "These who have turned the world upside down have come here too.

nkjv@Acts:17:7 @ Jason has harbored them, and these are all acting contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying there is another king--Jesus."

nkjv@Acts:17:11 @ These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so.

nkjv@Acts:17:12 @ Therefore many of them believed, and also not a few of the Greeks, prominent women as well as men.

nkjv@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews from Thessalonica learned that the word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came there also and stirred up the crowds.

nkjv@Acts:17:14 @ Then immediately the brethren sent Paul away, to go to the sea; but both Silas and Timothy remained there.

nkjv@Acts:17:17 @ Therefore he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and with the Gentile worshipers, and in the marketplace daily with those who happened to be there.

nkjv@Acts:17:18 @ Then certain Epicurean and Stoic philosophers encountered him. And some said, "What does this babbler want to say?" Others said, "He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign gods," because he preached to them Jesus and the resurrection.

nkjv@Acts:17:20 @ For you are bringing some strange things to our ears. Therefore we want to know what these things mean."

nkjv@Acts:17:21 @ For all the Athenians and the foreigners who were there spent their time in nothing else but either to tell or to hear some new thing.

nkjv@Acts:17:23 @ for as I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim to you:

nkjv@Acts:17:29 @ Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, something shaped by art and man's devising.

nkjv@Acts:17:30 @ Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,

nkjv@Acts:17:32 @ And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked, while others said, "We will hear you again on this matter."

nkjv@Acts:17:34 @ However, some men joined him and believed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

nkjv@Acts:18:7 @ And he departed from there and entered the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.

nkjv@Acts:18:11 @ And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

nkjv@Acts:18:14 @ And when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or wicked crimes, O Jews, there would be reason why I should bear with you.

nkjv@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus, and left them there; but he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:18:23 @ After he had spent some time there, he departed and went over the region of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

nkjv@Acts:19:2 @ he said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" So they said to him, "We have not so much as heard whether there is a Holy Spirit."

nkjv@Acts:19:14 @ Also there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so.

nkjv@Acts:19:19 @ Also, many of those who had practiced magic brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted up the value of them, and it totaled fifty thousand pieces of silver.

nkjv@Acts:19:21 @ When these things were accomplished, Paul purposed in the Spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, "After I have been there, I must also see Rome."

nkjv@Acts:19:23 @ And about that time there arose a great commotion about the Way.

nkjv@Acts:19:25 @ He called them together with the workers of similar occupation, and said: "Men, you know that we have our prosperity by this trade.

nkjv@Acts:19:27 @ So not only is this trade of ours in danger of falling into disrepute, but also the temple of the great goddess Diana may be despised and her magnificence destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worship."

nkjv@Acts:19:32 @ Some therefore cried one thing and some another, for the assembly was confused, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

nkjv@Acts:19:35 @ And when the city clerk had quieted the crowd, he said: "Men of Ephesus, what man is there who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple guardian of the great goddess Diana, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?

nkjv@Acts:19:36 @ Therefore, since these things cannot be denied, you ought to be quiet and do nothing rashly.

nkjv@Acts:19:37 @ For you have brought these men here who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of your goddess.

nkjv@Acts:19:38 @ Therefore, if Demetrius and his fellow craftsmen have a case against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. Let them bring charges against one another.

nkjv@Acts:19:39 @ But if you have any other inquiry to make, it shall be determined in the lawful assembly.

nkjv@Acts:19:40 @ For we are in danger of being called in question for today's uproar, there being no reason which we may give to account for this disorderly gathering."

nkjv@Acts:20:6 @ But we sailed away from Philippi after the Days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days joined them at Troas, where we stayed seven days.

nkjv@Acts:20:7 @ Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight.

nkjv@Acts:20:8 @ There were many lamps in the upper room where they were gathered together.

nkjv@Acts:20:13 @ Then we went ahead to the ship and sailed to Assos, there intending to take Paul on board; for so he had given orders, intending himself to go on foot.

nkjv@Acts:20:15 @ We sailed from there, and the next day came opposite Chios. The following day we arrived at Samos and stayed at Trogyllium. The next day we came to Miletus.

nkjv@Acts:20:22 @ And see, now I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there,

nkjv@Acts:20:26 @ Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men.

nkjv@Acts:20:28 @ Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.

nkjv@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.

nkjv@Acts:20:32 @ "So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

nkjv@Acts:21:1 @ Now it came to pass, that when we had departed from them and set sail, running a straight course we came to Cos, the following day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.

nkjv@Acts:21:3 @ When we had sighted Cyprus, we passed it on the left, sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unload her cargo.

nkjv@Acts:21:4 @ And finding disciples, we stayed there seven days. They told Paul through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:21:6 @ When we had taken our leave of one another, we boarded the ship, and they returned home.

nkjv@Acts:21:20 @ And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord. And they said to him, "You see, brother, how many myriads of Jews there are who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law;

nkjv@Acts:21:23 @ Therefore do what we tell you: We have four men who have taken a vow.

nkjv@Acts:21:28 @ crying out, "Men of Israel, help! This is the man who teaches all men everywhere against the people, the law, and this place; and furthermore he also brought Greeks into the temple and has defiled this holy place."

nkjv@Acts:21:30 @ And all the city was disturbed; and the people ran together, seized Paul, and dragged him out of the temple; and immediately the doors were shut.

nkjv@Acts:21:34 @ And some among the multitude cried one thing and some another. So when he could not ascertain the truth because of the tumult, he commanded him to be taken into the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:21:40 @ So when he had given him permission, Paul stood on the stairs and motioned with his hand to the people. And when there was a great silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew language, saying,

nkjv@Acts:22:1 @ "Brethren and fathers, hear my defense before you now."

nkjv@Acts:22:3 @ "I am indeed a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the strictness of our fathers' law, and was zealous toward God as you all are today.

nkjv@Acts:22:5 @ as also the high priest bears me witness, and all the council of the elders, from whom I also received letters to the brethren, and went to Damascus to bring in chains even those who were there to Jerusalem to be punished.

nkjv@Acts:22:10 @ So I said, "What shall I do, Lord?' And the Lord said to me, "Arise and go into Damascus, and there you will be told all things which are appointed for you to do.'

nkjv@Acts:22:12 @ "Then a certain Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good testimony with all the Jews who dwelt there,

nkjv@Acts:22:13 @ came to me; and he stood and said to me, "Brother Saul, receive your sight.' And at that same hour I looked up at him.

nkjv@Acts:22:14 @ Then he said, "The God of our fathers has chosen you that you should know His will, and see the Just One, and hear the voice of His mouth.

nkjv@Acts:22:21 @ Then He said to me, "Depart, for I will send you far from here to the Gentiles."'

nkjv@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, "Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee; concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am being judged!"

nkjv@Acts:23:8 @ For Sadducees say that there is no resurrection--and no angel or spirit; but the Pharisees confess both.

nkjv@Acts:23:9 @ Then there arose a loud outcry. And the scribes of the Pharisees' party arose and protested, saying, "We find no evil in this man; but if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him, let us not fight against God."

nkjv@Acts:23:10 @ Now when there arose a great dissension, the commander, fearing lest Paul might be pulled to pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:23:12 @ And when it was day, some of the Jews banded together and bound themselves under an oath, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.

nkjv@Acts:26:6 @ And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers.

nkjv@Acts:26:18 @ to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.'

nkjv@Acts:26:19 @ "Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,

nkjv@Acts:26:22 @ Therefore, having obtained help from God, to this day I stand, witnessing both to small and great, saying no other things than those which the prophets and Moses said would come--

nkjv@Acts:26:29 @ And Paul said, "I would to God that not only you, but also all who hear me today, might become both almost and altogether such as I am, except for these chains."

nkjv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was decided that we should sail to Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to one named Julius, a centurion of the Augustan Regiment.

nkjv@Acts:27:4 @ When we had put to sea from there, we sailed under the shelter of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

nkjv@Acts:27:6 @ There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship sailing to Italy, and he put us on board.

nkjv@Acts:27:12 @ And because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised to set sail from there also, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete opening toward the southwest and northwest, and winter there.

nkjv@Acts:27:15 @ So when the ship was caught, and could not head into the wind, we let her drive.

nkjv@Acts:27:20 @ Now when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest beat on us, all hope that we would be saved was finally given up.

nkjv@Acts:27:22 @ And now I urge you to take heart, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

nkjv@Acts:27:23 @ For there stood by me this night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve,

nkjv@Acts:27:25 @ Therefore take heart, men, for I believe God that it will be just as it was told me.

nkjv@Acts:27:28 @ And they took soundings and found it to be twenty fathoms; and when they had gone a little farther, they took soundings again and found it to be fifteen fathoms.

nkjv@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I urge you to take nourishment, for this is for your survival, since not a hair will fall from the head of any of you."

nkjv@Acts:27:41 @ But striking a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the prow stuck fast and remained immovable, but the stern was being broken up by the violence of the waves.

nkjv@Acts:28:3 @ But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

nkjv@Acts:28:4 @ So when the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped the sea, yet justice does not allow to live."

nkjv@Acts:28:7 @ In that region there was an estate of the leading citizen of the island, whose name was Publius, who received us and entertained us courteously for three days.

nkjv@Acts:28:8 @ And it happened that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and dysentery. Paul went in to him and prayed, and he laid his hands on him and healed him.

nkjv@Acts:28:11 @ After three months we sailed in an Alexandrian ship whose figurehead was the Twin Brothers, which had wintered at the island.

nkjv@Acts:28:13 @ From there we circled round and reached Rhegium. And after one day the south wind blew; and the next day we came to Puteoli,

nkjv@Acts:28:14 @ where we found brethren, and were invited to stay with them seven days. And so we went toward Rome.

nkjv@Acts:28:15 @ And from there, when the brethren heard about us, they came to meet us as far as Appii Forum and Three Inns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.

nkjv@Acts:28:17 @ And it came to pass after three days that Paul called the leaders of the Jews together. So when they had come together, he said to them: "Men and brethren, though I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

nkjv@Acts:28:18 @ who, when they had examined me, wanted to let me go, because there was no cause for putting me to death.

nkjv@Acts:28:20 @ For this reason therefore I have called for you, to see you and speak with you, because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."

nkjv@Acts:28:21 @ Then they said to him, "We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brethren who came reported or spoken any evil of you.

nkjv@Acts:28:22 @ But we desire to hear from you what you think; for concerning this sect, we know that it is spoken against everywhere."

nkjv@Acts:28:25 @ So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

nkjv@Acts:28:28 @ "Therefore let it be known to you that the salvation of God has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it!"

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

nkjv@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that I may be encouraged together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.

nkjv@Romans:1:13 @ Now I do not want you to be unaware, brethren, that I often planned to come to you (but was hindered until now), that I might have some fruit among you also, just as among the other Gentiles.

nkjv@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves,

nkjv@Romans:1:25 @ who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:1:27 @ Likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust for one another, 1men with 1men committing what is shameful, and receiving in themselves the penalty of their error which was due.

nkjv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things.

nkjv@Romans:2:11 @ For there is no partiality with God.

nkjv@Romans:2:20 @ an instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, having the form of knowledge and truth in the law.

nkjv@Romans:2:21 @ You, therefore, who teach another, do you not teach yourself? You who preach that a man should not steal, do you steal?

nkjv@Romans:2:26 @ Therefore, if an uncircumcised man keeps the righteous requirements of the law, will not his uncircumcision be counted as circumcision?

nkjv@Romans:3:10 @ As it is written: "There is none righteous, no, not one;

nkjv@Romans:3:11 @ There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God.

nkjv@Romans:3:12 @ They have all turned aside; They have together become unprofitable; There is none who does good, no, not one."

nkjv@Romans:3:18 @ "There is no fear of God before their eyes."

nkjv@Romans:3:20 @ Therefore by the deeds of the law no flesh will be justified in His sight, for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

nkjv@Romans:3:22 @ even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference;

nkjv@Romans:3:27 @ Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? Of works? No, but by the law of faith.

nkjv@Romans:3:28 @ Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith apart from the deeds of the law.

nkjv@Romans:3:30 @ since there is one God who will justify the circumcised by faith and the uncircumcised through faith.

nkjv@Romans:4:1 @ What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh?

nkjv@Romans:4:11 @ And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had while still uncircumcised, that he might be the father of all those who believe, though they are uncircumcised, that righteousness might be imputed to them also,

nkjv@Romans:4:12 @ and the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who also walk in the steps of the faith which our father Abraham had while still uncircumcised.

nkjv@Romans:4:15 @ because the law brings about wrath; for where there is no law there is no transgression.

nkjv@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore it is of faith that it might be according to grace, so that the promise might be sure to all the seed, not only to those who are of the law, but also to those who are of the faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

nkjv@Romans:4:17 @ (as it is written, "I have made you a father of many nations" ) in the presence of Him whom he believed--God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did;

nkjv@Romans:4:18 @ who, contrary to hope, in hope believed, so that he became the father of many nations, according to what was spoken, "So shall your descendants be."

nkjv@Romans:4:22 @ And therefore "it was accounted to him for righteousness."

nkjv@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@Romans:5:12 @ Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned--

nkjv@Romans:5:13 @ (For until the law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

nkjv@Romans:5:18 @ Therefore, as through one man's offense judgment came to all men, resulting in condemnation, even so through one Man's righteous act the free gift came to all men, resulting in justification of life.

nkjv@Romans:5:20 @ Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more,

nkjv@Romans:6:4 @ Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

nkjv@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,

nkjv@Romans:6:12 @ Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.

nkjv@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one's slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?

nkjv@Romans:7:2 @ For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the husband dies, she is released from the law of her husband.

nkjv@Romans:7:3 @ So then if, while her husband lives, she marries another man, she will be called an adulteress; but if her husband dies, she is free from that law, so that she is no adulteress, though she has married another man.

nkjv@Romans:7:4 @ Therefore, my brethren, you also have become dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you may be married to another--to Him who was raised from the dead, that we should bear fruit to God.

nkjv@Romans:7:12 @ Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.

nkjv@Romans:7:23 @ But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

nkjv@Romans:8:1 @ There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.

nkjv@Romans:8:12 @ Therefore, brethren, we are debtors--not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh.

nkjv@Romans:8:15 @ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father."

nkjv@Romans:8:17 @ and if children, then heirs--heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

nkjv@Romans:8:22 @ For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.

nkjv@Romans:8:28 @ And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

nkjv@Romans:8:34 @ Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

nkjv@Romans:8:38 @ For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,

nkjv@Romans:8:39 @ nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

nkjv@Romans:9:5 @ of whom are the fathers and from whom, according to the flesh, Christ came, who is over all, the eternally blessed God. Amen.

nkjv@Romans:9:10 @ And not only this, but when Rebecca also had conceived by one man, even by our father Isaac

nkjv@Romans:9:12 @ it was said to her, "The older shall serve the younger."

nkjv@Romans:9:14 @ What shall we say then? Is there unrighteousness with God? Certainly not!

nkjv@Romans:9:18 @ Therefore He has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.

nkjv@Romans:9:21 @ Does not the potter have power over the clay, from the same lump to make one vessel for honor and another for dishonor?

nkjv@Romans:9:25 @ As He says also in Hosea: "I will call them My people, who were not My people, And her beloved, who was not beloved."

nkjv@Romans:9:26 @ "And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, "You are not My people,' There they shall be called sons of the living God."

nkjv@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.

nkjv@Romans:10:14 @ How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?

nkjv@Romans:11:5 @ Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

nkjv@Romans:11:6 @ And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.

nkjv@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.

nkjv@Romans:11:22 @ Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

nkjv@Romans:11:28 @ Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.

nkjv@Romans:12:1 @ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.

nkjv@Romans:12:5 @ so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.

nkjv@Romans:12:10 @ Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another;

nkjv@Romans:12:16 @ Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.

nkjv@Romans:12:19 @ Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord.

nkjv@Romans:12:20 @ Therefore "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head."

nkjv@Romans:13:1 @ Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.

nkjv@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.

nkjv@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience' sake.

nkjv@Romans:13:7 @ Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.

nkjv@Romans:13:8 @ Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.

nkjv@Romans:13:9 @ For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not bear false witness," "You shall not covet," and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

nkjv@Romans:13:10 @ Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

nkjv@Romans:13:12 @ The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.

nkjv@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you to judge another's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.

nkjv@Romans:14:5 @ One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind.

nkjv@Romans:14:8 @ For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.

nkjv@Romans:14:10 @ But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

nkjv@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother's way.

nkjv@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

nkjv@Romans:14:15 @ Yet if your brother is grieved because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died.

nkjv@Romans:14:16 @ Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil;

nkjv@Romans:14:19 @ Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.

nkjv@Romans:14:21 @ It is good neither to eat meat nor drink wine nor do anything by which your brother stumbles or is offended or is made weak.

nkjv@Romans:15:5 @ Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus,

nkjv@Romans:15:6 @ that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Romans:15:7 @ Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God.

nkjv@Romans:15:8 @ Now I say that Jesus Christ has become a servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers,

nkjv@Romans:15:12 @ And again, Isaiah says: "There shall be a root of Jesse; And He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles, In Him the Gentiles shall hope."

nkjv@Romans:15:14 @ Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

nkjv@Romans:15:17 @ Therefore I have reason to glory in Christ Jesus in the things which pertain to God.

nkjv@Romans:15:20 @ And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build on another man's foundation,

nkjv@Romans:15:24 @ whenever I journey to Spain, I shall come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.

nkjv@Romans:15:28 @ Therefore, when I have performed this and have sealed to them this fruit, I shall go by way of you to Spain.

nkjv@Romans:15:30 @ Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in prayers to God for me,

nkjv@Romans:15:32 @ that I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may be refreshed together with you.

nkjv@Romans:16:2 @ that you may receive her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and assist her in whatever business she has need of you; for indeed she has been a helper of many and of myself also.

nkjv@Romans:16:11 @ Greet Herodion, my countryman. Greet those who are of the household of Narcissus who are in the Lord.

nkjv@Romans:16:13 @ Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord, and his mother and mine.

nkjv@Romans:16:14 @ Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermas, Patrobas, Hermes, and the brethren who are with them.

nkjv@Romans:16:16 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ greet you.

nkjv@Romans:16:19 @ For your obedience has become known to all. Therefore I am glad on your behalf; but I want you to be wise in what is good, and simple concerning evil.

nkjv@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius, my host and the host of the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the treasurer of the city, greets you, and Quartus, a brother.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:16 @ Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas. Besides, I do not know whether I baptized any other.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:4 @ For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not carnal?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:7 @ So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:11 @ For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:21 @ Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours:

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:22 @ whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come--all are yours.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each one's praise will come from God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:6 @ Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that you may learn in us not to think beyond what is written, that none of you may be puffed up on behalf of one against the other.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:7 @ For who makes you differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? Now if you did indeed receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:15 @ For though you might have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet you do not have many fathers; for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore I urge you, imitate me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this reason I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful son in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach everywhere in every church.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles--that a man has his father's wife!

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he who has done this deed might be taken away from among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Therefore purge out the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, since you truly are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, was sacrificed for us.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:8 @ Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:13 @ But those who are outside God judges. Therefore "put away from yourselves the evil person."

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:1 @ Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:6 @ But brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers!

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:7 @ Now therefore, it is already an utter failure for you that you go to law against one another. Why do you not rather accept wrong? Why do you not rather let yourselves be cheated?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:9 @ Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites,

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:10 @ nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:16 @ Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For "the two," He says, "shall become one flesh."

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:20 @ For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:2 @ Nevertheless, because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:3 @ Let the husband render to his wife the affection due her, and likewise also the wife to her husband.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:4 @ The wife does not have authority over her own body, but the husband does. And likewise the husband does not have authority over his own body, but the wife does.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not deprive one another except with consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again so that Satan does not tempt you because of your lack of self-control.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:7 @ For I wish that all men were even as I myself. But each one has his own gift from God, one in this manner and another in that.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:10 @ Now to the married I command, yet not I but the Lord: A wife is not to depart from her husband.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:11 @ But even if she does depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband. And a husband is not to divorce his wife.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:12 @ But to the rest I, not the Lord, say: If any brother has a wife who does not believe, and she is willing to live with him, let him not divorce her.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:13 @ And a woman who has a husband who does not believe, if he is willing to live with her, let her not divorce him.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband; otherwise your children would be unclean, but now they are holy.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:15 @ But if the unbeliever departs, let him depart; a brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases. But God has called us to peace.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:16 @ For how do you know, O wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, O husband, whether you will save your wife?

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you called while a slave? Do not be concerned about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:26 @ I suppose therefore that this is good because of the present distress--that it is good for a man to remain as he is:

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:34 @ There is a difference between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares about the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit. But she who is married cares about the things of the world--how she may please her husband.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:38 @ So then he who gives her in marriage does well, but he who does not give her in marriage does better.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:39 @ A wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband dies, she is at liberty to be married to whom she wishes, only in the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Therefore concerning the eating of things offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords),

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:6 @ yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ However, there is not in everyone that knowledge; for some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:11 @ And because of your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?

nkjv@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never again eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:2 @ If I am not an apostle to others, yet doubtless I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:5 @ Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Or does He say it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written, that he who plows should plow in hope, and he who threshes in hope should be partaker of his hope.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others are partakers of this right over you, are we not even more? Nevertheless we have not used this right, but endure all things lest we hinder the gospel of Christ.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:26 @ Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air.

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:27 @ But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:1 @ Moreover, brethren, I do not want you to be unaware that all our fathers were under the cloud, all passed through the sea,

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:12 @ Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:14 @ Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:20 @ Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:24 @ Let no one seek his own, but each one the other's well-being.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ "Conscience," I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another man's conscience?

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Give no offense, either to the Jews or to the Greeks or to the church of God,

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:10 @ For this reason the woman ought to have a symbol of authority on her head, because of the angels.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:11 @ Nevertheless, neither is man independent of woman, nor woman independent of man, in the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge among yourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

nkjv@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.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now in giving these instructions I do not praise you, since you come together not for the better but for the worse.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first of all, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must also be factions among you, that those who are approved may be recognized among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ Therefore when you come together in one place, it is not to eat the Lord's Supper.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating, each one takes his own supper ahead of others; and one is hungry and another is drunk.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:27 @ Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Therefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ But if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, lest you come together for judgment. And the rest I will set in order when I come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed, and no one can say that Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:10 @ to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:13 @ For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free--and have all been made to drink into one Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:17 @ If the whole body were an eye, where would be the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where would be the smelling?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:19 @ And if they were all one member, where would the body be?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:20 @ But now indeed there are many members, yet one body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:22 @ No, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:29 @ Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:8 @ Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you unless I speak to you either by revelation, by knowledge, by prophesying, or by teaching?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:7 @ Even things without life, whether flute or harp, when they make a sound, unless they make a distinction in the sounds, how will it be known what is piped or played?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ There are, it may be, so many kinds of languages in the world, and none of them is without significance.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:11 @ Therefore, if I do not know the meaning of the language, I shall be a foreigner to him who speaks, and he who speaks will be a foreigner to me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:13 @ Therefore let him who speaks in a tongue pray that he may interpret.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:17 @ For you indeed give thanks well, but the other is not edified.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:19 @ yet in the church I would rather speak five words with my understanding, that I may teach others also, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:21 @ In the law it is written: "With men of other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people; And yet, for all that, they will not hear Me," says the Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:22 @ Therefore tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe but to unbelievers; but prophesying is not for unbelievers but for those who believe.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ Therefore if the whole church comes together in one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those who are uninformed or unbelievers, will they not say that you are out of your mind?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ How is it then, brethren? Whenever you come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done for edification.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If anyone speaks in a tongue, let there be two or at the most three, each in turn, and let one interpret.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in church, and let him speak to himself and to God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:29 @ Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others judge.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:30 @ But if anything is revealed to another who sits by, let the first keep silent.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:39 @ Therefore, brethren, desire earnestly to prophesy, and do not forbid to speak with tongues.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:11 @ Therefore, whether it was I or they, so we preach and so you believed.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ is not risen.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:24 @ Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise, what will they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? Why then are they baptized for the dead?

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And what you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but mere grain--perhaps wheat or some other grain.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:41 @ There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:44 @ It is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:50 @ Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; nor does corruption inherit incorruption.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:55 @ "O Death, where is your sting? O Hades, where is your victory?"

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

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper, that there be no collections when I come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ And it may be that I will remain, or even spend the winter with you, that you may send me on my journey, wherever I go.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:9 @ For a great and effective door has opened to me, and there are many adversaries.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore let no one despise him. But send him on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ Now concerning our brother Apollos, I strongly urged him to come to you with the brethren, but he was quite unwilling to come at this time; however, he will come when he has a convenient time.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ For they refreshed my spirit and yours. Therefore acknowledge such men.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:20 @ All the brethren greet you. Greet one another with a holy kiss.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia:

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:11 @ you also helping together in prayer for us, that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the gift granted to us through many.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:13 @ For we are not writing any other things to you than what you read or understand. Now I trust you will understand, even to the end

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:17 @ Therefore, when I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be Yes, Yes, and No, No?

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so that, on the contrary, you ought rather to forgive and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one be swallowed up with too much sorrow.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:8 @ Therefore I urge you to reaffirm your love to him.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For to this end I also wrote, that I might put you to the test, whether you are obedient in all things.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened to me by the Lord,

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:13 @ I had no rest in my spirit, because I did not find Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them, I departed for Macedonia.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:16 @ To the one we are the aroma of death leading to death, and to the other the aroma of life leading to life. And who is sufficient for these things?

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, as some others, epistles of commendation to you or letters of commendation from you?

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:12 @ Therefore, since we have such hope, we use great boldness of speech--

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:17 @ Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:1 @ Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we do not lose heart.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I believed and therefore I spoke," we also believe and therefore speak,

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:16 @ Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For we who are in this tent groan, being burdened, not because we want to be unclothed, but further clothed, that mortality may be swallowed up by life.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:9 @ Therefore we make it our aim, whether present or absent, to be well pleasing to Him.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:16 @ Therefore, from now on, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know Him thus no longer.

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:17 @ Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:1 @ We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:14 @ Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:18 @ "I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty."

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Therefore, although I wrote to you, I did not do it for the sake of him who had done the wrong, nor for the sake of him who suffered wrong, but that our care for you in the sight of God might appear to you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we have been comforted in your comfort. And we rejoiced exceedingly more for the joy of Titus, because his spirit has been refreshed by you all.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:16 @ Therefore I rejoice that I have confidence in you in everything.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ but now you also must complete the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of what you have.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:12 @ For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:13 @ For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened;

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack, that their abundance also may supply your lack--that there may be equality.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:15 @ As it is written, "He who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack."

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:18 @ And we have sent with him the brother whose praise is in the gospel throughout all the churches,

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, because of the great confidence which we have in you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:24 @ Therefore show to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love and of our boasting on your behalf.

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brethren to go to you ahead of time, and prepare your generous gift beforehand, which you had previously promised, that it may be ready as a matter of generosity and not as a grudging obligation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:13 @ We, however, will not boast beyond measure, but within the limits of the sphere which God appointed us--a sphere which especially includes you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ not boasting of things beyond measure, that is, in other men's labors, but having hope, that as your faith is increased, we shall be greatly enlarged by you in our sphere,

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:16 @ to preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man's sphere of accomplishment.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:4 @ For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted--you may well put up with it!

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robbed other churches, taking wages from them to minister to you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:15 @ Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be according to their works.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:16 @ I say again, let no one think me a fool. If otherwise, at least receive me as a fool, that I also may boast a little.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:28 @ besides the other things, what comes upon me daily: my deep concern for all the churches.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago--whether in the body I do not know, or whether out of the body I do not know, God knows--such a one was caught up to the third heaven.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:3 @ And I know such a man--whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows--

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:9 @ And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For what is it in which you were inferior to other churches, except that I myself was not burdensome to you? Forgive me this wrong!

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

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found by you such as you do not wish; lest there be contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, backbitings, whisperings, conceits, tumults;

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you are disqualified.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:10 @ Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the authority which the Lord has given me for edification and not for destruction.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:12 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss.

nkjv@Galatians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle (not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised Him from the dead),

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

nkjv@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,

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

nkjv@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.

nkjv@Galatians:1:9 @ As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than what you have received, let him be accursed.

nkjv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:14 @ And I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries in my own nation, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

nkjv@Galatians:1:15 @ But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb and called me through His grace,

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

nkjv@Galatians:2:17 @ "But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore a minister of sin? Certainly not!

nkjv@Galatians:3:5 @ Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?--

nkjv@Galatians:3:7 @ Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham.

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

nkjv@Galatians:3:21 @ Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could have given life, truly righteousness would have been by the law.

nkjv@Galatians:3:24 @ Therefore the law was our tutor to bring us to Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

nkjv@Galatians:4:9 @ But now after you have known God, or rather are known by God, how is it that you turn again to the weak and beggarly elements, to which you desire again to be in bondage?

nkjv@Galatians:4:16 @ Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?

nkjv@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman.

nkjv@Galatians:4:25 @ for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children--

nkjv@Galatians:4:26 @ but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all.

nkjv@Galatians:4:30 @ Nevertheless what does the Scripture say? "Cast out the bondwoman and her son, for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman."

nkjv@Galatians:5:1 @ Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

nkjv@Galatians:5:6 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love.

nkjv@Galatians:5:10 @ I have confidence in you, in the Lord, that you will have no other mind; but he who troubles you shall bear his judgment, whoever he is.

nkjv@Galatians:5:13 @ For you, brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.

nkjv@Galatians:6:4 @ But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

nkjv@Galatians:6:10 @ Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are of the household of faith.

nkjv@Galatians:6:15 @ For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but a new creation.

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

nkjv@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:10 @ that in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth--in Him.

nkjv@Ephesians:1:11 @ In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will,

nkjv@Ephesians:1:14 @ who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.

nkjv@Ephesians:1:15 @ Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints,

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

nkjv@Ephesians:1:18 @ the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:3 @ among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.

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

nkjv@Ephesians:2:6 @ and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:11 @ Therefore remember that you, once Gentiles in the flesh--who are called Uncircumcision by what is called the Circumcision made in the flesh by hands--

nkjv@Ephesians:2:16 @ and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:18 @ For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.

nkjv@Ephesians:2:19 @ Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:21 @ in whom the whole building, being fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord,

nkjv@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.

nkjv@Ephesians:3:5 @ which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and prophets:

nkjv@Ephesians:3:13 @ Therefore I ask that you do not lose heart at my tribulations for you, which is your glory.

nkjv@Ephesians:3:14 @ For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:1 @ I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to walk worthy of the calling with which you were called,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:2 @ with all lowliness and gentleness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling;

nkjv@Ephesians:4:6 @ one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:8 @ Therefore He says: "When He ascended on high, He led captivity captive, And gave gifts to men."

nkjv@Ephesians:4:11 @ And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:16 @ from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:17 @ This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their mind,

nkjv@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore, putting away lying, "Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor," for we are members of one another.

nkjv@Ephesians:4:28 @ Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.

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

nkjv@Ephesians:5:1 @ Therefore be imitators of God as dear children.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:4 @ neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor coarse jesting, which are not fitting, but rather giving of thanks.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:5 @ For this you know, that no fornicator, unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and God.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:7 @ Therefore do not be partakers with them.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:11 @ And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:14 @ Therefore He says: "Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light."

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

nkjv@Ephesians:5:19 @ speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord,

nkjv@Ephesians:5:20 @ giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@Ephesians:5:21 @ submitting to one another in the fear of God.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:24 @ Therefore, just as the church is subject to Christ, so let the wives be to their own husbands in everything.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:25 @ Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her,

nkjv@Ephesians:5:26 @ that He might sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word,

nkjv@Ephesians:5:27 @ that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.

nkjv@Ephesians:5:31 @ "For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh."

nkjv@Ephesians:5:33 @ Nevertheless let each one of you in particular so love his own wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

nkjv@Ephesians:6:2 @ "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with promise:

nkjv@Ephesians:6:4 @ And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord.

nkjv@Ephesians:6:8 @ knowing that whatever good anyone does, he will receive the same from the Lord, whether he is a slave or free.

nkjv@Ephesians:6:9 @ And you, masters, do the same things to them, giving up threatening, knowing that your own Master also is in heaven, and there is no partiality with Him.

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

nkjv@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

nkjv@Ephesians:6:21 @ But that you also may know my affairs and how I am doing, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make all things known to you;

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

nkjv@Philippians:1:12 @ But I want you to know, brethren, that the things which happened to me have actually turned out for the furtherance of the gospel,

nkjv@Philippians:1:18 @ What then? Only that in every way, whether in pretense or in truth, Christ is preached; and in this I rejoice, yes, and will rejoice.

nkjv@Philippians:1:20 @ according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death.

nkjv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel,

nkjv@Philippians:2:1 @ Therefore if there is any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affection and mercy,

nkjv@Philippians:2:3 @ Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself.

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

nkjv@Philippians:2:9 @ Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,

nkjv@Philippians:2:11 @ and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

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

nkjv@Philippians:2:22 @ But you know his proven character, that as a son with his father he served with me in the gospel.

nkjv@Philippians:2:23 @ Therefore I hope to send him at once, as soon as I see how it goes with me.

nkjv@Philippians:2:25 @ Yet I considered it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, fellow worker, and fellow soldier, but your messenger and the one who ministered to my need;

nkjv@Philippians:2:28 @ Therefore I sent him the more eagerly, that when you see him again you may rejoice, and I may be less sorrowful.

nkjv@Philippians:2:29 @ Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness, and hold such men in esteem;

nkjv@Philippians:3:15 @ Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you.

nkjv@Philippians:4:1 @ Therefore, my beloved and longed-for brethren, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, beloved.

nkjv@Philippians:4:8 @ Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things.

nkjv@Philippians:4:12 @ I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

nkjv@Philippians:4:20 @ Now to our God and Father be glory forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@Colossians:1:2 @ To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ who are in Colosse: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Colossians:1:3 @ We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you,

nkjv@Colossians:1:12 @ giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.

nkjv@Colossians:1:16 @ For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him.

nkjv@Colossians:1:19 @ For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell,

nkjv@Colossians:1:20 @ and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.

nkjv@Colossians:2:2 @ that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,

nkjv@Colossians:2:6 @ As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him,

nkjv@Colossians:2:13 @ And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses,

nkjv@Colossians:2:19 @ and not holding fast to the Head, from whom all the body, nourished and knit together by joints and ligaments, grows with the increase that is from God.

nkjv@Colossians:2:20 @ Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to regulations--

nkjv@Colossians:3:1 @ If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.

nkjv@Colossians:3:5 @ Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

nkjv@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds,

nkjv@Colossians:3:11 @ where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcised nor uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free, but Christ is all and in all.

nkjv@Colossians:3:12 @ Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering;

nkjv@Colossians:3:13 @ bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do.

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

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

nkjv@Colossians:3:24 @ knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

nkjv@Colossians:3:25 @ But he who does wrong will be repaid for what he has done, and there is no partiality.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ remembering without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For neither at any time did we use flattering words, as you know, nor a cloak for covetousness--God is witness.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Nor did we seek glory from men, either from you or from others, when we might have made demands as apostles of Christ.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ But we were gentle among you, just as a nursing mother cherishes her own children.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ as you know how we exhorted, and comforted, and charged every one of you, as a father does his own children,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ Therefore we wanted to come to you--even I, Paul, time and again--but Satan hindered us.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ Therefore, when we could no longer endure it, we thought it good to be left in Athens alone,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ and sent Timothy, our brother and minister of God, and our fellow laborer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you and encourage you concerning your faith,

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ therefore, brethren, in all our affliction and distress we were comforted concerning you by your faith.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now may our God and Father Himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way to you.

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

nkjv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:6 @ that no one should take advantage of and defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also forewarned you and testified.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:8 @ Therefore he who rejects this does not reject man, but God, who has also given us His Holy Spirit.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But concerning brotherly love you have no need that I should write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another;

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:13 @ But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:17 @ Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:4:18 @ Therefore comfort one another with these words.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:6 @ Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:10 @ who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

nkjv@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ Therefore we also pray always for you that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of His goodness and the work of faith with power,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now, brethren, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to Him, we ask you,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be soon shaken in mind or troubled, either by spirit or by word or by letter, as if from us, as though the day of Christ had come.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:15 @ Therefore, brethren, stand fast and hold the traditions which you were taught, whether by word or our epistle.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace,

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ But we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition which he received from us.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:10 @ For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:11 @ For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies.

nkjv@2Thessalonians:3:15 @ Yet do not count him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, a true son in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God our Father and Jesus Christ our Lord.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I urged you when I went into Macedonia--remain in Ephesus that you may charge some that they teach no other doctrine,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:4 @ nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:7 @ desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm.

nkjv@1Timothy:1:9 @ knowing this: that the law is not made for a righteous person, but for the lawless and insubordinate, for the ungodly and for sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

nkjv@1Timothy:1:10 @ for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:1 @ Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:5 @ For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus,

nkjv@1Timothy:2:7 @ for which I was appointed a preacher and an apostle--I am speaking the truth in Christ and not lying--a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

nkjv@1Timothy:2:8 @ I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting;

nkjv@1Timothy:5:1 @ Do not rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father, younger men as brothers,

nkjv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, with all purity.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:14 @ Therefore I desire that the younger widows marry, bear children, manage the house, give no opportunity to the adversary to speak reproachfully.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:22 @ Do not lay hands on anyone hastily, nor share in other people's sins; keep yourself pure.

nkjv@1Timothy:5:25 @ Likewise, the good works of some are clearly evident, and those that are otherwise cannot be hidden.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:2 @ And those who have believing masters, let them not despise them because they are brethren, but rather serve them because those who are benefited are believers and beloved. Teach and exhort these things.

nkjv@1Timothy:6:3 @ If anyone teaches otherwise and does not consent to wholesome words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine which accords with godliness,

nkjv@2Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, a beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

nkjv@2Timothy:1:3 @ I thank God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, as my forefathers did, as without ceasing I remember you in my prayers night and day,

nkjv@2Timothy:2:10 @ Therefore I endure all things for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:20 @ But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay, some for honor and some for dishonor.

nkjv@2Timothy:2:21 @ Therefore if anyone cleanses himself from the latter, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified and useful for the Master, prepared for every good work.

nkjv@2Timothy:3:4 @ traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

nkjv@2Timothy:3:9 @ but they will progress no further, for their folly will be manifest to all, as theirs also was.

nkjv@2Timothy:4:1 @ I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom:

nkjv@2Timothy:4:3 @ For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers;

nkjv@Titus:1:4 @ To Titus, a true son in our common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.

nkjv@Titus:1:10 @ For there are many insubordinate, both idle talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision,

nkjv@Titus:1:13 @ This testimony is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith,

nkjv@Titus:2:3 @ the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things--

nkjv@Titus:3:3 @ For we ourselves were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful and hating one another.

nkjv@Titus:3:12 @ When I send Artemas to you, or Tychicus, be diligent to come to me at Nicopolis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

nkjv@Philemon:1:8 @ Therefore, though I might be very bold in Christ to command you what is fitting,

nkjv@Philemon:1:9 @ yet for love's sake I rather appeal to you--being such a one as Paul, the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ--

nkjv@Philemon:1:12 @ I am sending him back. You therefore receive him, that is, my own heart,

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

nkjv@Philemon:1:20 @ Yes, brother, let me have joy from you in the Lord; refresh my heart in the Lord.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:13 @ And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.

nkjv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

nkjv@Hebrews:5:6 @ As He also says in another place: "You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek";

nkjv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God; and you have come to need milk and not solid food.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore, leaving the discussion of the elementary principles of Christ, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

nkjv@Hebrews:6:7 @ For the earth which drinks in the rain that often comes upon it, and bears herbs useful for those by whom it is cultivated, receives blessing from God;

nkjv@Hebrews:6:12 @ that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

nkjv@Hebrews:6:20 @ where the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:3 @ without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, remains a priest continually.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:8 @ Here mortal men receive tithes, but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:10 @ for he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Therefore, if perfection were through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there that another priest should rise according to the order of Melchizedek, and not be called according to the order of Aaron?

nkjv@Hebrews:7:12 @ For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:13 @ For He of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, from which no man has officiated at the altar.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:15 @ And it is yet far more evident if, in the likeness of Melchizedek, there arises another priest

nkjv@Hebrews:7:18 @ For on the one hand there is an annulling of the former commandment because of its weakness and unprofitableness,

nkjv@Hebrews:7:19 @ for the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:23 @ Also there were many priests, because they were prevented by death from continuing.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:25 @ Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them.

nkjv@Hebrews:7:26 @ For such a High Priest was fitting for us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and has become higher than the heavens;

nkjv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this One also have something to offer.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:4 @ For if He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer the gifts according to the law;

nkjv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they did not continue in My covenant, and I disregarded them, says the LORD.

nkjv@Hebrews:8:11 @ None of them shall teach his neighbor, and none his brother, saying, "Know the LORD,' for all shall know Me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:5 @ and above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat. Of these things we cannot now speak in detail.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where there is a testament, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:18 @ Therefore not even the first covenant was dedicated without blood.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:22 @ And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:23 @ Therefore it was necessary that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

nkjv@Hebrews:9:25 @ not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood of another--

nkjv@Hebrews:10:3 @ But in those sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:5 @ Therefore, when He came into the world, He said: "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, But a body You have prepared for Me.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:18 @ Now where there is remission of these, there is no longer an offering for sin.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:19 @ Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:24 @ And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

nkjv@Hebrews:10:26 @ For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

nkjv@Hebrews:10:35 @ Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:8 @ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:12 @ Therefore from one man, and him as good as dead, were born as many as the stars of the sky in multitude--innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:16 @ But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the passing pleasures of sin,

nkjv@Hebrews:11:29 @ By faith they passed through the Red Sea as by dry land, whereas the Egyptians, attempting to do so, were drowned.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received their dead raised to life again. Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.

nkjv@Hebrews:11:36 @ Still others had trial of mockings and scourgings, yes, and of chains and imprisonment.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:1 @ Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,

nkjv@Hebrews:12:2 @ looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:7 @ If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?

nkjv@Hebrews:12:9 @ Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?

nkjv@Hebrews:12:12 @ Therefore strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees,

nkjv@Hebrews:12:13 @ and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:16 @ lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:17 @ For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.

nkjv@Hebrews:12:28 @ Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:1 @ Let brotherly love continue.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:12 @ Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:13 @ Therefore let us go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing His reproach.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:14 @ For here we have no continuing city, but we seek the one to come.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:15 @ Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name.

nkjv@Hebrews:13:20 @ Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,

nkjv@Hebrews:13:23 @ Know that our brother Timothy has been set free, with whom I shall see you if he comes shortly.

nkjv@James:1:9 @ Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation,

nkjv@James:1:11 @ For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits.

nkjv@James:1:17 @ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.

nkjv@James:1:21 @ Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

nkjv@James:1:27 @ Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

nkjv@James:2:2 @ For if there should come into your assembly a man with gold rings, in fine apparel, and there should also come in a poor man in filthy clothes,

nkjv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, "You sit here in a good place," and say to the poor man, "You stand there," or, "Sit here at my footstool,"

nkjv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,

nkjv@James:2:19 @ You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe--and tremble!

nkjv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?

nkjv@James:2:22 @ Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?

nkjv@James:2:25 @ Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

nkjv@James:3:1 @ My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment.

nkjv@James:3:4 @ Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires.

nkjv@James:3:9 @ With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God.

nkjv@James:3:16 @ For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.

nkjv@James:4:1 @ Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members?

nkjv@James:4:4 @ Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

nkjv@James:4:6 @ But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble."

nkjv@James:4:7 @ Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

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

nkjv@James:4:12 @ There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?

nkjv@James:4:13 @ Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit";

nkjv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

nkjv@James:4:17 @ Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

nkjv@James:5:7 @ Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.

nkjv@James:5:9 @ Do not grumble against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door!

nkjv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your "Yes" be "Yes," and your "No," "No," lest you fall into judgment.

nkjv@James:5:16 @ Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

nkjv@1Peter:1:2 @ elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace be multiplied.

nkjv@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

nkjv@1Peter:1:4 @ to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you,

nkjv@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

nkjv@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you call on the Father, who without partiality judges according to each one's work, conduct yourselves throughout the time of your stay here in fear;

nkjv@1Peter:1:18 @ knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers,

nkjv@1Peter:1:22 @ Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart,

nkjv@1Peter:1:24 @ because "All flesh is as grass, And all the glory of man as the flower of the grass. The grass withers, And its flower falls away,

nkjv@1Peter:2:1 @ Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking,

nkjv@1Peter:2:2 @ as newborn babes, desire the pure milk of the word, that you may grow thereby,

nkjv@1Peter:2:6 @ Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame."

nkjv@1Peter:2:7 @ Therefore, to you who believe, He is precious; but to those who are disobedient, "The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief cornerstone,"

nkjv@1Peter:2:13 @ Therefore submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake, whether to the king as supreme,

nkjv@1Peter:2:17 @ Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

nkjv@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

nkjv@1Peter:3:4 @ rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.

nkjv@1Peter:3:7 @ Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.

nkjv@1Peter:3:8 @ Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous;

nkjv@1Peter:3:9 @ not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.

nkjv@1Peter:3:21 @ There is also an antitype which now saves us--baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Peter:4:1 @ Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

nkjv@1Peter:4:7 @ But the end of all things is at hand; therefore be serious and watchful in your prayers.

nkjv@1Peter:4:8 @ And above all things have fervent love for one another, for "love will cover a multitude of sins."

nkjv@1Peter:4:9 @ Be hospitable to one another without grumbling.

nkjv@1Peter:4:10 @ As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

nkjv@1Peter:4:15 @ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people's matters.

nkjv@1Peter:4:18 @ Now "If the righteous one is scarcely saved, Where will the ungodly and the sinner appear?"

nkjv@1Peter:4:19 @ Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls to Him in doing good, as to a faithful Creator.

nkjv@1Peter:5:2 @ Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly;

nkjv@1Peter:5:4 @ and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.

nkjv@1Peter:5:5 @ Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble."

nkjv@1Peter:5:6 @ Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time,

nkjv@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

nkjv@1Peter:5:12 @ By Silvanus, our faithful brother as I consider him, I have written to you briefly, exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which you stand.

nkjv@1Peter:5:13 @ She who is in Babylon, elect together with you, greets you; and so does Mark my son.

nkjv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

nkjv@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@2Peter:1:10 @ Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble;

nkjv@2Peter:1:17 @ For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

nkjv@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.

nkjv@2Peter:2:11 @ whereas angels, who are greater in power and might, do not bring a reviling accusation against them before the Lord.

nkjv@2Peter:2:22 @ But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: "A dog returns to his own vomit," and, "a sow, having washed, to her wallowing in the mire."

nkjv@2Peter:3:4 @ and saying, "Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of creation."

nkjv@2Peter:3:11 @ Therefore, since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,

nkjv@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;

nkjv@2Peter:3:15 @ and consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation--as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given to him, has written to you,

nkjv@2Peter:3:17 @ You therefore, beloved, since you know this beforehand, beware lest you also fall from your own steadfastness, being led away with the error of the wicked;

nkjv@1John:1:2 @ the life was manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and declare to you that eternal life which was with the Father and was manifested to us--

nkjv@1John:1:3 @ that which we have seen and heard we declare to you, that you also may have fellowship with us; and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ.

nkjv@1John:1:7 @ But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

nkjv@1John:2:1 @ My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

nkjv@1John:2:9 @ He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.

nkjv@1John:2:10 @ He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.

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

nkjv@1John:2:13 @ I write to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, Because you have overcome the wicked one. I write to you, little children, Because you have known the Father.

nkjv@1John:2:14 @ I have written to you, fathers, Because you have known Him who is from the beginning. I have written to you, young men, Because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, And you have overcome the wicked one.

nkjv@1John:2:15 @ Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

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

nkjv@1John:2:22 @ Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son.

nkjv@1John:2:23 @ Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.

nkjv@1John:2:24 @ Therefore let that abide in you which you heard from the beginning. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, you also will abide in the Son and in the Father.

nkjv@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

nkjv@1John:3:5 @ And you know that He was manifested to take away our sins, and in Him there is no sin.

nkjv@1John:3:6 @ Whoever abides in Him does not sin. Whoever sins has neither seen Him nor known Him.

nkjv@1John:3:10 @ In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.

nkjv@1John:3:11 @ For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another,

nkjv@1John:3:12 @ not as Cain who was of the wicked one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his works were evil and his brother's righteous.

nkjv@1John:3:14 @ We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death.

nkjv@1John:3:15 @ Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

nkjv@1John:3:17 @ But whoever has this world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?

nkjv@1John:3:23 @ And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

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

nkjv@1John:4:5 @ They are of the world. Therefore they speak as of the world, and the world hears them.

nkjv@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

nkjv@1John:4:11 @ Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

nkjv@1John:4:12 @ No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.

nkjv@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world.

nkjv@1John:4:18 @ There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.

nkjv@1John:4:20 @ If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?

nkjv@1John:4:21 @ And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.

nkjv@1John:5:7 @ For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.

nkjv@1John:5:8 @ And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.

nkjv@1John:5:16 @ If anyone sees his brother sinning a sin which does not lead to death, he will ask, and He will give him life for those who commit sin not leading to death. There is sin leading to death. I do not say that he should pray about that.

nkjv@Revelation:2:22 @ Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds.

nkjv@Revelation:2:23 @ I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.

nkjv@Revelation:2:24 @ "Now to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as do not have this doctrine, who have not known the depths of Satan, as they say, I will put on you no other burden.

nkjv@Revelation:2:27 @ "He shall rule them with a rod of iron; They shall be dashed to pieces like the potter's vessels' -- as I also have received from My Father;

nkjv@Revelation:3:3 @ Remember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and repent. Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you.

nkjv@Revelation:3:5 @ He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life; but I will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.

nkjv@Revelation:3:15 @ "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot.

nkjv@Revelation:3:16 @ So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth.

nkjv@Revelation:3:19 @ As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent.

nkjv@Revelation:3:21 @ To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.

nkjv@Revelation:4:1 @ After these things I looked, and behold, a door standing open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard was like a trumpet speaking with me, saying, "Come up here, and I will show you things which must take place after this."

nkjv@Revelation:4:3 @ And He who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a rainbow around the throne, in appearance like an emerald.

nkjv@Revelation:4:6 @ Before the throne there was a sea of glass, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne, and around the throne, were four living creatures full of eyes in front and in back.

nkjv@Revelation:6:4 @ Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.

nkjv@Revelation:6:12 @ I looked when He opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.

nkjv@Revelation:7:2 @ Then I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God. And he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was granted to harm the earth and the sea,

nkjv@Revelation:7:6 @ of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand were sealed; of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand were sealed;

nkjv@Revelation:7:13 @ Then one of the elders answered, saying to me, "Who are these arrayed in white robes, and where did they come from?"

nkjv@Revelation:7:15 @ Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve Him day and night in His temple. And He who sits on the throne will dwell among them.

nkjv@Revelation:7:16 @ They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat;

nkjv@Revelation:7:17 @ for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."

nkjv@Revelation:8:1 @ When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.

nkjv@Revelation:8:3 @ Then another angel, having a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

nkjv@Revelation:8:5 @ Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it to the earth. And there were noises, thunderings, lightnings, and an earthquake.

nkjv@Revelation:9:10 @ They had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails. Their power was to hurt men five months.

nkjv@Revelation:9:20 @ But the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk.

nkjv@Revelation:10:1 @ I saw still another mighty angel coming down from heaven, clothed with a cloud. And a rainbow was on his head, his face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.

nkjv@Revelation:10:6 @ and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there should be delay no longer,

nkjv@Revelation:11:1 @ Then I was given a reed like a measuring rod. And the angel stood, saying, "Rise and measure the temple of God, the altar, and those who worship there.

nkjv@Revelation:11:8 @ And their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

nkjv@Revelation:11:10 @ And those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, make merry, and send gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.

nkjv@Revelation:11:12 @ And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here." And they ascended to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them.

nkjv@Revelation:11:13 @ In the same hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. In the earthquake seven thousand people were killed, and the rest were afraid and gave glory to the God of heaven.

nkjv@Revelation:11:15 @ Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!"

nkjv@Revelation:11:19 @ Then the temple of God was opened in heaven, and the ark of His covenant was seen in His temple. And there were lightnings, noises, thunderings, an earthquake, and great hail.

nkjv@Revelation:12:1 @ Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars.

nkjv@Revelation:12:3 @ And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.

nkjv@Revelation:12:4 @ His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born.

nkjv@Revelation:12:5 @ She bore a male Child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her Child was caught up to God and His throne.

nkjv@Revelation:12:6 @ Then the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

nkjv@Revelation:12:12 @ Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time."

nkjv@Revelation:12:14 @ But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent.

nkjv@Revelation:12:15 @ So the serpent spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood.

nkjv@Revelation:12:17 @ And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Revelation:13:10 @ He who leads into captivity shall go into captivity; he who kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

nkjv@Revelation:13:11 @ Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon.

nkjv@Revelation:13:18 @ Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.

nkjv@Revelation:14:1 @ Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father's name written on their foreheads.

nkjv@Revelation:14:4 @ These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These were redeemed from among men, being firstfruits to God and to the Lamb.

nkjv@Revelation:14:6 @ Then I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth--to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people--

nkjv@Revelation:14:8 @ And another angel followed, saying, "Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she has made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication."

nkjv@Revelation:14:12 @ Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

nkjv@Revelation:14:15 @ And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him who sat on the cloud, "Thrust in Your sickle and reap, for the time has come for You to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe."

nkjv@Revelation:14:17 @ Then another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.

nkjv@Revelation:14:18 @ And another angel came out from the altar, who had power over fire, and he cried with a loud cry to him who had the sharp sickle, saying, "Thrust in your sharp sickle and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for her grapes are fully ripe."

nkjv@Revelation:14:19 @ So the angel thrust his sickle into the earth and gathered the vine of the earth, and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.

nkjv@Revelation:15:1 @ Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them the wrath of God is complete.

nkjv@Revelation:16:7 @ And I heard another from the altar saying, "Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are Your judgments."

nkjv@Revelation:16:14 @ For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

nkjv@Revelation:16:16 @ And they gathered them together to the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon.

nkjv@Revelation:16:18 @ And there were noises and thunderings and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such a mighty and great earthquake as had not occurred since men were on the earth.

nkjv@Revelation:16:19 @ Now the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. And great Babylon was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of His wrath.

nkjv@Revelation:17:2 @ with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication."

nkjv@Revelation:17:4 @ The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication.

nkjv@Revelation:17:5 @ And on her forehead a name was written: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

nkjv@Revelation:17:6 @ I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And when I saw her, I marveled with great amazement.

nkjv@Revelation:17:7 @ But the angel said to me, "Why did you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns.

nkjv@Revelation:17:9 @ "Here is the mind which has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits.

nkjv@Revelation:17:10 @ There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come. And when he comes, he must continue a short time.

nkjv@Revelation:17:15 @ Then he said to me, "The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and tongues.

nkjv@Revelation:17:16 @ And the ten horns which you saw on the beast, these will hate the harlot, make her desolate and naked, eat her flesh and burn her with fire.

nkjv@Revelation:18:1 @ After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory.

nkjv@Revelation:18:3 @ For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury."

nkjv@Revelation:18:4 @ And I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.

nkjv@Revelation:18:5 @ For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.

nkjv@Revelation:18:6 @ Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her.

nkjv@Revelation:18:7 @ In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, "I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.'

nkjv@Revelation:18:8 @ Therefore her plagues will come in one day--death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.

nkjv@Revelation:18:9 @ "The kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her will weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning,

nkjv@Revelation:18:10 @ standing at a distance for fear of her torment, saying, "Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come.'

nkjv@Revelation:18:11 @ "And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise anymore:

nkjv@Revelation:18:15 @ The merchants of these things, who became rich by her, will stand at a distance for fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,

nkjv@Revelation:18:18 @ and cried out when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, "What is like this great city?'

nkjv@Revelation:18:19 @ "They threw dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and wailing, and saying, "Alas, alas, that great city, in which all who had ships on the sea became rich by her wealth! For in one hour she is made desolate.'

nkjv@Revelation:18:20 @ "Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you holy apostles and prophets, for God has avenged you on her!"

nkjv@Revelation:18:24 @ And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth."

nkjv@Revelation:19:2 @ For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her."

nkjv@Revelation:19:3 @ Again they said, "Alleluia! Her smoke rises up forever and ever!"

nkjv@Revelation:19:7 @ Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready."

nkjv@Revelation:19:8 @ And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

nkjv@Revelation:19:17 @ Then I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the midst of heaven, "Come and gather together for the supper of the great God,

nkjv@Revelation:19:19 @ And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army.

nkjv@Revelation:20:10 @ The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

nkjv@Revelation:20:11 @ Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them.

nkjv@Revelation:20:12 @ And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.

nkjv@Revelation:21:1 @ Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea.

nkjv@Revelation:21:2 @ Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

nkjv@Revelation:21:4 @ And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away."

nkjv@Revelation:21:7 @ He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.

nkjv@Revelation:21:25 @ Its gates shall not be shut at all by day (there shall be no night there).

nkjv@Revelation:21:27 @ But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.

nkjv@Revelation:22:2 @ In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

nkjv@Revelation:22:3 @ And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him.

nkjv@Revelation:22:5 @ There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever.
