mkjv@Joshua:1:1 @ And it happened after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying,

mkjv@Joshua:1:2 @ My servant Moses is dead. Now, therefore, arise, go over this Jordan, you and all this people to the land which I give to them, to the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Joshua:1:3 @ Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, I have given that to you, as I said to Moses.

mkjv@Joshua:1:4 @ From the wilderness and this Lebanon even to the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.

mkjv@Joshua:1:5 @ No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, [so] I will be with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.

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

mkjv@Joshua:1:8 @ This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it by day and by night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall act wisely.

mkjv@Joshua:1:9 @ Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage. Do not be afraid, neither be dismayed. For the LORD your God [is] with you in all places where you go.

mkjv@Joshua:1:10 @ Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people saying,

mkjv@Joshua:1:12 @ And Joshua spoke to the Reubenites and to the Gadites and to half the tribe of Manasseh, saying:

mkjv@Joshua:1:13 @ Remember the word which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you saying, The LORD your God has given you rest and has given you this land.

mkjv@Joshua:1:14 @ Your wives, your little ones, and your cattle shall remain in the land which Moses gave you on this side Jordan. But you shall go armed before your brothers, all the mighty men of valor, and help them

mkjv@Joshua:1:15 @ until the LORD has given your brothers rest, even as you, and they also have possessed the land which the LORD your God gives them; and you shall return to the land of your possession and enjoy it, which Moses the LORD's servant gave you on this side Jordan, towards the sunrise.

mkjv@Joshua:1:18 @ Whoever rebels against your command and will not listen to your words in all that you command him, he shall be put to death. Only be strong and of a good courage.

mkjv@Joshua:2:1 @ And Joshua the son of Nun sent out of Shittim two men to spy secretly, saying, Go look over the land, even Jericho. And they went and came to the house of a harlot named Rahab. And they stayed there.

mkjv@Joshua:2:2 @ And the king of Jericho was told about it, saying, Behold, men from the sons of Israel came in here tonight, to search out the country.

mkjv@Joshua:2:3 @ And the king of Jericho sent to Rahab, saying, Bring out the men that have come to you, those who have entered into your house. For they have come to search out all the country.

mkjv@Joshua:2:5 @ And it happened when it was dark, [at the time of] shutting the gate, the men went out. Where the men went I do not know. Go after them quickly, for you shall overtake them.

mkjv@Joshua:2:6 @ But she had brought them up on the roof, and had hidden them with the stalks of flax which she had laid in order upon the roof.

mkjv@Joshua:2:8 @ And before they had laid down, she came up to them on the roof.

mkjv@Joshua:2:9 @ And she said to the men, I know that the LORD has given you the land, and that your terror has fallen on us, and that all those who live in the land faint because of you.

mkjv@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 that were on the other side Jordan, Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed.

mkjv@Joshua:2:11 @ And we had heard, and our hearts melted, nor did any more spirit remain in any man, because of you. For the LORD your God, He is God in Heaven above and in earth beneath.

mkjv@Joshua:2:17 @ And the men said to her, We [will be] blameless of this oath to you which you have made us swear.

mkjv@Joshua:2:18 @ Behold, [when] we come into the land, you shall set this line of scarlet thread in the window from which you let us down. And you shall bring your father and your mother, and your brothers, and all your father's household, home to you.

mkjv@Joshua:2:19 @ And it shall be, whoever shall go out of the doors of your house, his blood [shall be] on his head, and we [will be] blameless. And whoever shall be with you in the house, his blood [shall be] on our head if a hand is on him.

mkjv@Joshua:2:20 @ And if you tell our business, then we will be free of the oath which you have made us swear to you.

mkjv@Joshua:2:23 @ And the two men returned and came down from the mountain, and passed over, and came to Joshua the son of Nun. And they told him all that happened to them.

mkjv@Joshua:2:24 @ And they said to Joshua, Truly the LORD has delivered all the land into our hands, for even all those who live in the country faint because of us.

mkjv@Joshua:3:1 @ And Joshua rose early in the morning. And they moved from Shittim and came to Jordan, he and all the sons of Israel, and lodged there before they passed over.

mkjv@Joshua:3:2 @ And it happened after three days the officers went through the host.

mkjv@Joshua:3:3 @ And [they] commanded the people saying, When you see the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, and the priests the Levites bearing it, then you shall move from your place and go after it.

mkjv@Joshua:3:6 @ And Joshua spoke to the priests saying, Take up the ark of the covenant and pass over before the people. And they took up the ark of the covenant and went before the people.

mkjv@Joshua:3:7 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, Today, I will begin to magnify you in the sight of all Israel so that they may know that I will be with you, as I was with Moses.

mkjv@Joshua:3:8 @ And you shall command the priests that carry the ark of the covenant, saying, When you have come to the brink of the water of Jordan, you shall stand still in Jordan.

mkjv@Joshua:3:9 @ And Joshua said to the sons of Israel, Come here and hear the words of the LORD your God.

mkjv@Joshua:3:11 @ Behold, the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth passes over before you into Jordan.

mkjv@Joshua:3:12 @ And now take yourselves twelve men out of the tribes of Israel, out of every tribe a man.

mkjv@Joshua:3:13 @ And it shall be, as soon as the soles of the feet of the priests that carry the ark of Jehovah, the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of Jordan, the waters of Jordan shall be cut off [from] the waters that come down from above. And they shall stand all in a heap.

mkjv@Joshua:3:14 @ And it happened, when the people moved from their tents to pass over Jordan, and as the priests carried the ark of the covenant before the people,

mkjv@Joshua:3:15 @ and as those who bore the ark had come to Jordan, and the feet of the priests that bore the ark were dipped in the edge of the water (for Jordan overflows all its banks, all the time of harvest);

mkjv@Joshua:3:16 @ that the waters which came down from above stopped [and] rose up all in a heap, very far from the city Adam that [is] beside Zaretan. And those that came down toward the sea of the plain, the Salt Sea, were completely cut off. And the people passed over across from Jericho.

mkjv@Joshua:3:17 @ And the priests who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the middle of Jordan. And all the Israelites passed over on dry ground, until all the people had passed completely over Jordan.

mkjv@Joshua:4:2 @ Take twelve men for you out of the people, a man out of every tribe,

mkjv@Joshua:4:3 @ and command them saying, Take twelve stones from here, out of the middle of Jordan, out of the place where the priests' feet stood firm. And you shall carry them over with you, and leave them in the place where you shall stay tonight.

mkjv@Joshua:4:4 @ Then Joshua called the twelve men whom he had prepared from the sons of Israel, a man out of every tribe.

mkjv@Joshua:4:5 @ And Joshua said to them, Pass over in front of the ark of the LORD your God into the middle of the Jordan. And every man take a stone on his shoulder, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel,

mkjv@Joshua:4:7 @ Then you shall answer them, The waters of Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the LORD. When it passed over Jordan, the waters of Jordan were cut off, and these stones shall be for a memorial to the sons of Israel forever.

mkjv@Joshua:4:8 @ And the sons of Israel did as Joshua commanded. And they took up twelve stones out of the middle of the Jordan, as the LORD spoke to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel, and carried them over with them to the place where they stayed, and laid them down there;

mkjv@Joshua:4:9 @ even the twelve stones Joshua lifted up in the middle of Jordan, in the place where the feet of the priests who carried the ark of the covenant, stood. And they are there to this day.

mkjv@Joshua:4:10 @ For the priests who bore the ark stood in the middle of the Jordan until everything was finished, all that the LORD commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses commanded Joshua. And the people hurried and passed over.

mkjv@Joshua:4:11 @ And it happened, when all the people had finished passing over, the ark of the LORD and the priests passed over before the people.

mkjv@Joshua:4:12 @ And the sons of Reuben, and the sons of Gad, and half the tribe of Manasseh, passed over armed in front of the sons of Israel, as Moses spoke to them;

mkjv@Joshua:4:13 @ about forty thousand armed men of the army passed over before the LORD to battle, to the plains of Jericho.

mkjv@Joshua:4:14 @ On that day the LORD made Joshua great in the sight of all Israel. And they feared him, even as they feared Moses, all the days of his life.

mkjv@Joshua:4:16 @ Command the priests who bear the ark of the testimony, that they come up out of the Jordan.

mkjv@Joshua:4:17 @ Joshua, therefore, commanded the priests saying, Come up out of the Jordan.

mkjv@Joshua:4:18 @ And it happened, when the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD had come up out of the midst of the Jordan, the soles of the feet of the priests were lifted up to the dry land, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and flowed over all its banks, as before.

mkjv@Joshua:4:19 @ And the people came up out of the Jordan on the tenth of the first month, and camped in Gilgal, in the east border of Jericho.

mkjv@Joshua:4:20 @ And those twelve stones which they took out of the Jordan, were raised by Joshua in Gilgal.

mkjv@Joshua:4:21 @ And he spoke to the sons of Israel saying, When your sons shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What do these stones [mean]?

mkjv@Joshua:4:23 @ For the LORD your God dried up the waters of Jordan from before you until you had passed over, even as the LORD your God did to the Red Sea which He dried up from before us until we had gone over;

mkjv@Joshua:4:24 @ so that all the people of the earth might know the hand of the LORD, [is] mighty and so that you might fear the LORD your God forever.

mkjv@Joshua:5:1 @ And it happened, 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 Jordan in front of the sons of Israel until we had passed over, that their hearts melted. Neither was there spirit in them any more, because of the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Joshua:5:2 @ At that time the LORD said to Joshua, Make sharp knives for yourselves and circumcise the sons of Israel again, the second time.

mkjv@Joshua:5:3 @ And Joshua made sharp knives and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins.

mkjv@Joshua:5:4 @ And this [is] the reason why Joshua circumcised. All the people that came out of Egypt, the males, all the men of war, died in the wilderness by the wayside, after they came out of Egypt.

mkjv@Joshua:5:5 @ For all the people who came out were circumcised. But all the people born in the wilderness by the wayside, as they came forth out of Egypt, had not been circumcised.

mkjv@Joshua:5:6 @ For the sons of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, until all the people, the men of war, who came out of Egypt, were destroyed, because they did not obey the voice of the LORD. To them the LORD swore that He would not show them the land which the LORD swore to their fathers that He would give us, a land that flows with milk and honey.

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

mkjv@Joshua:5:10 @ And the sons of Israel camped in Gilgal and kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at evening in the plains of Jericho.

mkjv@Joshua:5:11 @ And they ate of the old grain of the land on the next day after the Passover, unleavened cakes and roasted grain in the same day.

mkjv@Joshua:5:12 @ And the manna stopped on the next day after they had eaten the old grain of the land. And there was no more manna to the sons of Israel, but they ate the fruit of the land of Canaan that year.

mkjv@Joshua:5:13 @ And it happened, when Joshua was beside Jericho, he lifted up his eyes and looked. And, behold, there stood a Man in front of him with His sword drawn in His hand. And Joshua went to Him and said to Him, [Are] You for us, or for our foes?

mkjv@Joshua:5:14 @ And He said, No, but I have come [as] the Commander of the army of the LORD. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth. And he worshiped and said to Him, What does my Lord say to His servant?

mkjv@Joshua:5:15 @ And the Commander of the LORD's army said to Joshua, Take your shoe off your foot, for the place on which you stand [is] holy. And Joshua did so.

mkjv@Joshua:6:1 @ And Jericho was completely shut up because of the sons of Israel. None went out and none came in.

mkjv@Joshua:6:2 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, See, I have given Jericho into your hand, and its king, [and] the mighty men of war.

mkjv@Joshua:6:3 @ And you shall go around the city, all the men of war. Go around the city once. So you shall do for six days.

mkjv@Joshua:6:4 @ And seven priests shall bear seven trumpets of ram's horns in front of the ark. And the seventh day you shall go around the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.

mkjv@Joshua:6:5 @ And it shall be when they make a long [blast] with the ram's horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout. And the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall go up, each man straight before him.

mkjv@Joshua:6:6 @ And Joshua the son of Nun called the priests and said to them, Take up the ark of the covenant, and let seven priests carry seven ram's horns in front of the ark of the LORD.

mkjv@Joshua:6:7 @ And he said to the people, Pass on, and go around the city. And let him who is armed pass on in front of the ark of the LORD.

mkjv@Joshua:6:8 @ And it happened when Joshua had spoken to the people, the seven priests bearing the seven ram's horns passed on before the LORD and blew the ram's horns. And the ark of the covenant of the LORD followed them.

mkjv@Joshua:6:10 @ And Joshua had commanded the people saying, You shall not shout nor make any noise with your voice, neither shall [any] word come out of your mouth until the day I tell you to shout. Then you shall shout.

mkjv@Joshua:6:11 @ And the ark of the LORD went around the city, going around [it] once. And they came into the camp and stayed in the camp.

mkjv@Joshua:6:12 @ And Joshua rose early in the morning, and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.

mkjv@Joshua:6:13 @ And seven priests carrying seven ram's horns before the ark of the LORD went on without stopping and blew with the ram's horns. And the armed men went in front of them. But the rear guard came after the ark of the LORD as [the priests were going on and blowing with the ram's horns.

mkjv@Joshua:6:15 @ And it happened on the seventh day they rose early, at the dawning of the day, and circled the city in the same way seven times. Only on that day did they go around the city seven times.

mkjv@Joshua:6:18 @ And you surely shall keep [clear of] the cursed thing, lest you make yourselves cursed when you take of the cursed things, and make the camp of Israel a curse, and trouble it.

mkjv@Joshua:6:19 @ But all the silver and gold, and vessels of bronze and iron, [are] devoted to the LORD. They shall come into the treasury of the LORD.

mkjv@Joshua:6:20 @ And the people shouted when [the priests] blew with the ram's horns. And it happened when the people heard the sound of the ram's horns, and the people shouted with a great shout, the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, each man straight before him. And they took the city.

mkjv@Joshua:6:21 @ And they completely destroyed all in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox, and sheep, and ass, with the edge of the sword.

mkjv@Joshua:6:23 @ And the young men who were spies went in and brought Rahab out, and her father and her mother, and her brothers, and all that she had. And they brought out all her kindred and set them outside the camp of Israel.

mkjv@Joshua:6:24 @ And they burned the city with fire, and all that [was] in it. Only the silver and the gold, and the vessels of bronze and iron, they put into the treasury of the house of the LORD.

mkjv@Joshua:6:26 @ And Joshua charged [them] at that time, saying, Cursed before the LORD [is] the man who rises up and builds this city of Jericho. He shall lay the foundation of it in his first-born, and in his youngest [son] he shall set up the gates of it.

mkjv@Joshua:7:1 @ But the sons of Israel committed a sin in the cursed thing. For Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took of the thing which was cursed. And the anger of the LORD was kindled against the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Joshua:7:2 @ And Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which [is] beside Beth-aven, on the east side of Bethel. And he spoke to them, saying, Go up and look over the country. And the men went up and spied out Ai.

mkjv@Joshua:7:4 @ And about three thousand men of the people went up there. And they fled before the men of Ai.

mkjv@Joshua:7:5 @ And the men of Ai struck about thirty-six men of them, for they chased them [from] before the gate to Shebarim, and struck them in the road going down. Therefore the hearts of the people melted and became as water.

mkjv@Joshua:7:6 @ And Joshua tore his clothes and fell to the earth on his face before the ark of the LORD until the eventide, he and the elders of Israel, and put dust on their heads.

mkjv@Joshua:7:7 @ And Joshua said, Alas, O Lord God, why have You at all brought this people over Jordan to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites, to destroy us? And, oh that we had been content and lived on the other side Jordan!

mkjv@Joshua:7:9 @ For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land shall hear, and shall surround us, and shall cut off our name from the earth. And what will You do for Your great name?

mkjv@Joshua:7:11 @ Israel has sinned, and they have also broken My covenant which I commanded them, and have even taken of the cursed things, and have also stolen and pretended falsely. And they have even put [it] among their own stuff.

mkjv@Joshua:7:12 @ And the sons of Israel could not stand before their enemies. They will turn [their] backs before their enemies, because they have become cursed. I will not be with you again, unless you destroy the one who is cursed from among you.

mkjv@Joshua:7:13 @ Up! Sanctify the people and say, Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow. For thus says the LORD God of Israel, A cursed thing is] in the midst of you, O Israel. You cannot stand before your enemies until you take away the cursed thing from among you.

mkjv@Joshua:7:15 @ And it shall be, he who is taken with the cursed thing shall be burned with fire, he and all he has, because he has broken the covenant of the LORD, and because he has done wickedness in Israel.

mkjv@Joshua:7:16 @ And Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel by their tribes. And the tribe of Judah was taken.

mkjv@Joshua:7:17 @ And he brought the families of Judah. And he took the family of the Zerahites. And he took the family of the Zerahites man by man. And Zabdi was taken.

mkjv@Joshua:7:18 @ And he brought his household man by man. And Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken.

mkjv@Joshua:7:19 @ And Joshua said to Achan, My son, I pray you, give glory to the LORD God of Israel, and make confession to Him. And tell me now what you have done. Do not hide [it] from me.

mkjv@Joshua:7:20 @ And Achan answered Joshua and said, Indeed I have sinned against the LORD God of Israel, and this I have done.

mkjv@Joshua:7:21 @ When I saw among the spoil a goodly robe of Shinar, and two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold of fifty shekels weight, I coveted them and took them. And behold, they [are] hidden in the earth in the middle of my tent, and the silver under it.

mkjv@Joshua:7:23 @ And they took them out of the middle of the tent, and brought them to Joshua, and to all the sons of Israel. And they laid them out before the LORD.

mkjv@Joshua:7:24 @ And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan the son of Zerah, and the silver, and the garment, and the wedge of gold, and his sons, and his daughters, and his oxen, and his asses, and his sheep, and his tent, and all that he had. And they brought them to the valley of Achor.

mkjv@Joshua:7:26 @ And they raised over him a great heap of stones to this day. And the LORD turned from the greatness of His anger. Therefore, the name of that valley is called, The Valley of Grief, to this day.

mkjv@Joshua:8:1 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, Do not fear, nor be dismayed. Take all the people of war with you, and arise, go up to Ai. See, I have given into your hand the king of Ai, and his people, and his city, and his land.

mkjv@Joshua:8:3 @ So Joshua and all the people of war arose to go up against Ai. And Joshua chose out thirty thousand men, mighty warriors, and sent them away by night.

mkjv@Joshua:8:4 @ And he commanded them, saying, Behold, you [will be] an ambush against the city, behind the city. You shall not go very far from the city, but all of you be ready.

mkjv@Joshua:8:6 @ (for they will come out after us,) until we have drawn them out of the city. For they will say, They flee before us, even as at the first. And we will flee before them.

mkjv@Joshua:8:8 @ And it shall be, when you have taken the city, you shall set the city on fire, according to the command of the LORD you shall do. See, I have commanded you.

mkjv@Joshua:8:9 @ And Joshua sent them out. And they went to lie in ambush, and stayed between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of Ai. But Joshua stayed that night among the people.

mkjv@Joshua:8:10 @ And Joshua rose up early in the morning and called up the people. And [they] went up, he and the elders of Israel, in the sight of the people of Ai.

mkjv@Joshua:8:11 @ And all the people of war with him went up and drew near. And they came before the city, and pitched on the north side of Ai. And a valley [was] between them and Ai.

mkjv@Joshua:8:12 @ And he took about five thousand men, and set them to lie in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city.

mkjv@Joshua:8:13 @ And when they had set the people, all the army that [was] on the north of the city, and its rear [ambush] on the west of the city, Joshua went that night into the middle of the valley.

mkjv@Joshua:8:14 @ And it happened, when the king of Ai saw, they hurried and rose up early. And the men of the city went out to do battle against Israel, he and all his people, at the time appointed, before the plain. But] he did not know that [there were] some lying in ambush against him behind the city.

mkjv@Joshua:8:15 @ And Joshua and all Israel acted as if they were beaten before them, and fled by the way of the wilderness.

mkjv@Joshua:8:19 @ And the ambush arose quickly out of their place, and ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand. And they entered into the city, and took it, and hurried and set the city on fire.

mkjv@Joshua:8:20 @ And the men of Ai looked behind them and saw. And, behold, the smoke of the city went up into the sky, and they had no power to flee this way or that way. And the people who fled to the wilderness turned back against the pursuers.

mkjv@Joshua:8:21 @ And when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city, and that the smoke of the city went up, then they turned again and killed the men of Ai.

mkjv@Joshua:8:22 @ And the others came out of the city against them. So they were in the middle of Israel, some on this side, and some on that side. And they struck them so that they let none of them remain or escape.

mkjv@Joshua:8:23 @ And they took the king of Ai, and brought him alive to Joshua.

mkjv@Joshua:8:24 @ And it happened, when Israel had made an end of killing all those who lived in Ai, in the field and in the wilderness where they chased them, and when they had all fallen on the edge of the sword until they were gone, all the Israelites returned to Ai and struck it with the edge of the sword.

mkjv@Joshua:8:25 @ And all who fell that day, both of men and women, [were] twelve thousand, all the men of Ai.

mkjv@Joshua:8:26 @ For Joshua did not draw his hand back, with which he stretched out the spear, until he had utterly destroyed all the people of Ai.

mkjv@Joshua:8:27 @ Only, Israel took the cattle and the spoil of that city for a prize for themselves, according to the word of the LORD which He commanded Joshua.

mkjv@Joshua:8:29 @ And he hanged the king of Ai on a tree until evening. And as soon as the sun was down, Joshua commanded that they should take his body down from the tree and throw it down at the entrance to the gate of the city, and raise on it a great heap of stones, to this day.

mkjv@Joshua:8:30 @ Then Joshua built an altar to the LORD God of Israel in Mount Ebal,

mkjv@Joshua:8:31 @ as Moses the servant of the LORD commanded the sons of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of whole stones over which no man has lifted [any] iron. And they offered on it burnt offerings to the LORD, and sacrificed peace offerings.

mkjv@Joshua:8:32 @ And he wrote there on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he wrote in the presence of the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Joshua:8:33 @ And all Israel, and their elders and officers, and their judges, stood on this side of the ark, and on that side, before the priests the Levites who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD, the stranger as well as the homeborn among them, half of them over against Mount Gerizim, and half of them over against Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded before that they should bless all the people of Israel.

mkjv@Joshua:8:34 @ And afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessings and cursings, according to all that is written in the book of the law.

mkjv@Joshua:8:35 @ There was not a word of all that Moses commanded, which Joshua did not read before all the congregation of Israel, with the women and the little ones, and the strangers that walked among them.

mkjv@Joshua:9:1 @ And it happened, when all the kings who [were] on this side Jordan, in the hills and in the valleys, and in all the coast of the great sea over against Lebanon heard, the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite,

mkjv@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 treaty with us.

mkjv@Joshua:9:7 @ And the men of Israel said to the Hivites, Perhaps you are living among us, and how shall we make a treaty with you?

mkjv@Joshua:9:15 @ And Joshua made peace with them, and made a treaty with them, to let them live. And the rulers of the congregation swore to them.

mkjv@Joshua:9:16 @ And it happened at the end of three days after they had made a treaty with them, they heard that they [were] their neighbors and that they lived among them.

mkjv@Joshua:9:17 @ And the sons of Israel journeyed and came to their cities on the third day. Now their cities [were] Gibeon, and Chephirah, and Beeroth, and Kirjath-jearim.

mkjv@Joshua:9:26 @ And so he did to them, and delivered them out of the hand of the sons of Israel, so that they did not kill them.

mkjv@Joshua:9:27 @ And Joshua made them that day woodcutters and drawers of water for the congregation, and for the altar of the LORD, even to this day, in the place which He should choose.

mkjv@Joshua:10:2 @ they feared greatly, because Gibeon [was] a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it [was] greater than Ai, and all of its men were mighty.

mkjv@Joshua:10:3 @ And Adonizedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, and to Piram king of Jarmuth, and to Japhia king of Lachish, and to Debir king of Eglon, saying,

mkjv@Joshua:10:4 @ Come up to me, and help me, so that we may strike Gibeon. For it has made peace with Joshua and with the sons of Israel.

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

mkjv@Joshua:10:6 @ And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua to the camp to Gilgal, saying, Do not withhold your hand from your servants. Come up to us quickly, and save us, and help us. For all the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the mountains have gathered against us.

mkjv@Joshua:10:7 @ So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him, and all the mighty men of war.

mkjv@Joshua:10:8 @ And the LORD said to Joshua, Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hands. There shall not a man of them stand before you.

mkjv@Joshua:10:11 @ And it happened, as they fled from before Israel, and [were] in the descent of Bethhoron, the LORD cast down great stones from the heavens on them to Azekah, and they died. The many who died from hailstones were more than the sons of Israel killed with the sword.

mkjv@Joshua:10:12 @ Then Joshua spoke to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the sons of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel, Sun! Stand still on Gibeon! And, moon, [stand still] in the valley of Aijalon!

mkjv@Judges:3:15 @ But when the sons of Israel cried to the LORD, the LORD raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera, a Benjamite, a left-handed man. And the sons of Israel sent a present to Eglon the king of Moab by him.

mkjv@Judges:3:17 @ And he brought the present to Eglon king of Moab. And Eglon was a very fat man.

mkjv@Judges:3:22 @ And the haft also went in after the blade. And the fat closed upon the blade, so that he could not draw the dagger out of his belly. And the dung came out.

mkjv@Judges:3:24 @ And when he had gone out, his servants came. And they looked, and, behold, the doors of the roof room were locked, they said, Surely he [is] covering his feet in his cool roof room.

mkjv@Judges:3:25 @ And they waited until they were ashamed. And, behold, he did not open the doors of the room. And they took a key and opened them. And behold, their lord [had] fallen down dead on the earth.

mkjv@Judges:3:28 @ And he said to them, Follow after me. For the LORD has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand. And they went down after him and took the fords of Jordan toward Moab, and did not allow a man to pass over.

mkjv@Judges:3:29 @ And they killed about ten thousand of the men of Moab at that time, all lusty, and all men of might. And there did not escape a man.

mkjv@Judges:3:30 @ So Moab was subdued under the hand of Israel that day. And the land had rest eighty years.

mkjv@Judges:3:31 @ And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who killed six hundred men of the Philistines with an ox goad. And he also delivered Israel.

mkjv@Judges:4:1 @ And the sons of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD when Ehud was dead.

mkjv@Judges:4:2 @ And the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who ruled in Hazor. The captain of his host was Sisera who lived in Harosheth of the nations.

mkjv@Judges:4:3 @ And the sons of Israel cried to the LORD, for he had nine hundred chariots of iron. And he mightily oppressed the sons of Israel twenty years.

mkjv@Judges:4:4 @ And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, judged Israel at that time.

mkjv@Judges:4:5 @ And she lived under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim. And the sons of Israel came up to her for judgment.

mkjv@Judges:4:6 @ And she sent and called for Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh in Naphtali, and said to him, Has not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the sons of Naphtali and of the sons of Zebulun?

mkjv@Judges:4:7 @ And I will draw Sisera to you, the captain of Jabin's army, at the river Kishon, together with his chariots and his multitude. And I will deliver him into your hands.

mkjv@Judges:4:9 @ And she said, I will surely go with you. But the journey that you take shall not be for your honor, for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.

mkjv@Judges:4:11 @ And Heber the Kenite, of the sons of Hobab the father-in-law of Moses, had separated himself from the Kenites and pitched his tent toward the plain of Zaanaim, near Kedesh.

mkjv@Judges:4:12 @ And they told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.

mkjv@Judges:4:13 @ And Sisera gathered all his chariots, nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people with him, from Harosheth of the nations to the river of Kishon.

mkjv@Judges:4:15 @ And the LORD struck Sisera, and all the chariots, and all the army, with the edge of the sword in front of Barak, so that Sisera got down from the chariot and fled on his feet.

mkjv@Judges:4:16 @ But Barak pursued the chariots and after the army, to Harosheth of the nations. And all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword. There was not a man left.

mkjv@Judges:4:17 @ And Sisera fled on his feet to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite. For [there was] peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.

mkjv@Judges:4:19 @ And he said to her, Please give me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty. And she opened a skin of milk and gave him a drink, and covered him.

mkjv@Judges:4:20 @ Again he said to her, Stand [in] the door of the tent, and it shall be when any man comes asking of you, saying, Is there any man here? You shall say, No.

mkjv@Judges:4:21 @ Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a peg of the tent and put a hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and struck the peg into his temple, and beat it into the ground. For he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.

mkjv@Judges:4:23 @ And on that day God subdued Jabin the king of Canaan before the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Judges:4:24 @ And the hand of the sons of Israel went on, and pressed hard against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.

mkjv@Judges:5:1 @ Then Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying,

mkjv@Judges:5:2 @ Praise the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.

mkjv@Judges:5:3 @ Hear, O, kings. Give ear, O, princes. I, [even] I, will sing to the LORD, I will sing to the LORD God of Israel.

mkjv@Judges:5:4 @ LORD, when You went out of Seir, when You marched out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.

mkjv@Judges:5:5 @ The mountains quaked from before the LORD, even that Sinai from before the LORD God of Israel.

mkjv@Judges:5:6 @ In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were empty, and the travelers walked through crooked ways.

mkjv@Judges:5:9 @ My heart [is] toward the lawgivers of Israel who offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless the LORD.

mkjv@Judges:5:11 @ [Louder] than the voice of the dividers between the watering places, there shall they tell again the righteous acts of the LORD, the righteous acts of His leaders in Israel. Then shall the people of the LORD go down to the gates.

mkjv@Judges:5:12 @ Awake, awake, Deborah. Awake, awake, sing a song. Arise, Barak, lead your captivity captive, son of Abinoam.

mkjv@Judges:5:13 @ Then He [made me] tread on the remnant of the nobles among the people. The LORD made me have dominion over the mighty.

mkjv@Judges:5:14 @ Out of Ephraim there was a root of them [against] Amalek; after you, Benjamin, with your peoples. Out of Machir came down commanders, and out of Zebulun came they who handle the pen of the writer.

mkjv@Judges:5:15 @ And the rulers of Issachar [were] with Deborah, even Issachar, and also Barak. He was sent on foot into the valley. There were great thoughts of heart for the divisions of Reuben.

mkjv@Judges:5:16 @ Why did you stay among the sheepfolds to hear the bleating of the flocks? For in the divisions of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.

mkjv@Judges:5:18 @ Zebulun and Naphtali were a people who put their lives in danger of death in the high places of the field.

mkjv@Judges:5:19 @ Kings came and fought. Then the kings of Canaan fought in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo. They took no gain of silver.

mkjv@Judges:5:21 @ The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, you trampled in strength.

mkjv@Judges:5:22 @ Then did the hooves of horses beat, from the galloping, the galloping of their mighty ones.

mkjv@Judges:5:23 @ Curse Meroz, said the Angel of the LORD; curse the people of it bitterly, because they did not come to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty.

mkjv@Judges:5:24 @ Blessed among women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be. She shall be blessed above women in the tent.

mkjv@Judges:5:28 @ The mother of Sisera looked out a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why do the wheels of his chariot wait?

mkjv@Judges:5:30 @ Do they not find and divide the spoil? A womb, two wombs to a man's head, to Sisera a prize of dyed garments, a prize of embroidered dyed [garments] for the necks of those that take the spoil.

mkjv@Judges:6:1 @ And the sons of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD. And the LORD delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years.

mkjv@Judges:6:2 @ And the hand of Midian was strong against Israel. Before the faces of Midian, the sons of Israel made themselves dens in the mountains, and caves and strongholds.

mkjv@Judges:6:3 @ And so it was, when Israel had sown, that the Midianites came up, and the Amalekites, and the sons of the east, even they came up against them.

mkjv@Judges:6:4 @ And they camped against them and destroyed the increase of the earth, until you come to Gaza. And they left no food for Israel, neither sheep nor ox nor ass.

mkjv@Judges:6:6 @ And Israel was made very poor because of the Midianites. And the sons of Israel cried to the LORD.

mkjv@Judges:6:7 @ And it happened, when the sons of Israel cried to the LORD because of the Midianites,

mkjv@Judges:6:8 @ the LORD sent a man, a prophet to the sons of Israel, who said to them, So says the LORD God of Israel: I brought you up from Egypt and brought you forth out of the house of bondage.

mkjv@Judges:6:9 @ And I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all who oppressed you, and drove them out from before you and gave you their land.

mkjv@Judges:6:10 @ And I said to you, I [am] the LORD your God. Do not fear the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live. But you have not obeyed My voice.

mkjv@Judges:6:11 @ And the Angel of Jehovah came and sat under an oak which was in Ophrah, which [belonged] to Joash the Abiezrite. And his son Gideon threshed wheat by the winepress, to hide it from the Midianites.

mkjv@Judges:6:12 @ And the Angel of the LORD appeared to him, and said to him, The LORD [is] with you, mighty warrior.

mkjv@Judges:6:13 @ And Gideon said to Him, O, my Lord, if the LORD is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all His miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? But now the LORD has forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites.

mkjv@Judges:6:14 @ And the LORD looked upon him and said, Go in your might, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you?

mkjv@Judges:6:18 @ Do not depart from here, I pray, until I come to You, and bring forth my food offering and set it before You. And He said, I will stay until you come again.

mkjv@Judges:6:19 @ And Gideon went in and made ready a kid and unleavened [cakes] of an ephah of flour. He put the flesh in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out to Him to the oak, and offered [it].

mkjv@Judges:6:20 @ And the Angel of God said to him, Take the flesh and the unleavened [cakes] and lay on this rock, and pour out the broth. And he did so.

mkjv@Judges:6:21 @ Then the Angel of Jehovah put forth the end of the staff that was in His hand and touched the flesh and the unleavened [cakes]. And there rose up fire out of the rock and burned up the flesh and the unleavened [cakes]. Then the Angel of Jehovah went away out of his sight.

mkjv@Judges:6:22 @ And when Gideon saw that He was the Angel of Jehovah, Gideon said, Alas, O Lord God! Because I have seen the Angel of Jehovah face to face.

mkjv@Judges:6:24 @ Then Gideon built an altar there to Jehovah, and called it Jehovah-shalom. It [is] yet in Ophrah of the Abiezrites to this day.

mkjv@Judges:6:25 @ And it happened on that night Jehovah said to him, Take your father's young bull, even the second bull of seven years, and throw down the altar of Baal which your father [has], and cut down the pillar by it.

mkjv@Judges:6:26 @ And build an altar to Jehovah your God upon the top of this rock, in an orderly manner, and take the second bull and offer a burnt sacrifice with the wood of the grove which you shall cut down.

mkjv@Judges:6:27 @ Then Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as the LORD had said to him. And so it was, because he feared his father's household and the men of the city, that he could not do it by day. So he did it by night.

mkjv@Judges:6:28 @ And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was cast down, and the pillar which was by it was cut down, and the second bull had been offered upon the altar that was built.

mkjv@Judges:6:29 @ And they said to one another, Who has done this thing? And when they inquired and asked, they said, Gideon the son of Joash has done this thing.

mkjv@Judges:6:30 @ Then the men of the city said to Joash, Bring out your son so that he may die (because he had cast down the altar of Baal, and because he had cut down the pillar by it).

mkjv@Judges:6:33 @ Then all the Midianites and the Amalekites, and the sons of the east were gathered together, and went over and pitched in the valley of Jezreel.

mkjv@Judges:6:34 @ But the spirit of the LORD came to Gideon, and he blew a ram's horn. And he called the Abiezrites after him.

mkjv@Judges:6:37 @ behold, I will put a fleece of wool in the grain-floor. And if the dew is on the fleece only, and dry upon all the ground, then I shall know that You will save Israel by my hand, as You have said.

mkjv@Judges:6:38 @ And it was so. For he rose up early in the morning and gathered the fleece together, and wrung the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water.

mkjv@Judges:7:1 @ And Jerubbaal (he [is] Gideon) and all the people that were with him, rose up early and pitched beside the well of Harod, so that the army of the Midianites was on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.

mkjv@Judges:7:3 @ Now, therefore, speak in the ears of the people, saying, Whoever is fearful and afraid, let him return and go away early from Mount Gilead. And twenty-two thousand of the people returned. And there remained ten thousand.

mkjv@Judges:7:4 @ And the LORD said to Gideon, The people are still [too] many. Bring them down to the water, and I will separate them for you there. It shall be [that of] whom I say to you, This shall go with you, the same shall go with you. And of whomever I say to you, This shall not go with you, the same shall not go.

mkjv@Judges:7:6 @ And the number of them who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, [was] three hundred men. But all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water.

mkjv@Judges:7:8 @ And the people took provisions in their hand, and their ram's horns. And he sent away all the rest of Israel, each man to his tent, and kept those three hundred men. And the army of Midian was below him in the valley.

mkjv@Judges:7:11 @ And you shall hear what they shall say. And afterward your hands shall be strengthened to go down to the army. Then he went down with Phurah his servant to the edge of the ranks in the army.

mkjv@Judges:7:12 @ And the Midianites and the Amalekites, and all the sons of the east lay along in the valley like locusts for multitude, and their camels without number, like the sand by the seaside for multitude.

mkjv@Judges:7:13 @ And when Gideon had come, behold, a man told a dream to his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came to a tent, and struck it so that it fell, and overturned it, so that the tent lay along.

mkjv@Judges:7:14 @ And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else except the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel. For into his hand God has delivered Midian and all the army.

mkjv@Judges:7:15 @ And it happened, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and the meaning of it, he worshiped. And [he] returned to the army of Israel, and said, Arise! For the LORD has delivered the host of Midian into your hand.

mkjv@Judges:7:17 @ And he said to them, Look on me, and do likewise. And, behold, when I come to the edge of the camp, it shall be, as I do, so you shall do.

mkjv@Judges:7:18 @ When I blow with a ram's horn, I and all who are with me, then you blow the ram's horns also on every side of all the camp, and shout, For Jehovah and for Gideon!

mkjv@Judges:7:19 @ So Gideon and the hundred men with him came to the edge of the camp in the beginning of the middle watch. And they had but newly set the watch. And they blew the ram's horns and broke the pitchers that were in their hands.

mkjv@Judges:7:22 @ And the three hundred blew the ram's horns. And the LORD set every man's sword against his fellow, even throughout all the army. And the army fled to Beth-shittah in Zererath, to the border of Abel-meholah, to Tabbath.

mkjv@Judges:7:23 @ And the men of Israel were called out of Naphtali, and out of Asher, and out of all Manasseh, and ran after the Midianites.

mkjv@Judges:7:24 @ And Gideon sent messengers throughout all mount Ephraim, saying, Come down against the Midianites, and take the waters to Beth-barah and Jordan before them. Then all the men of Ephraim gathered themselves. And they captured the waters to Beth-barah and Jordan.

mkjv@1Kings:7:14 @ He [was] the son of a widow of the tribe of Naphtali, and his father [was] a man of Tyre, a worker in bronze. And he was filled with wisdom and understanding, and cunning to work all works in bronze. And he came to King Solomon and did all his work.

mkjv@1Kings:7:15 @ For he cast two pillars of bronze, eighteen cubits [was] the height of the one pillar. And a line of twelve cubits went around the second pillar.

mkjv@1Kings:7:16 @ And he made two capitals [of] melted bronze to set on the tops of the pillars. The height of the one capital [was] five cubits, and the height of the other capital five cubits.

mkjv@1Kings:7:17 @ He made gratings, grating work [with] twisted threads of chain-work, for the capitals on the top of the pillars; seven for the one capital, and seven for the other capital.

mkjv@1Kings:7:19 @ And the capitals on the top of the pillars in the porch [were] lily-work, four cubits.

mkjv@1Kings:7:21 @ And he set up the pillars in the porch of the temple. And he set up the right pillar and called its name, Jachin. And he set up the left pillar, and called its name, Boaz.

mkjv@1Kings:7:22 @ And on the top of the pillars [was] lily-work. So the work of the pillars was finished.

mkjv@1Kings:7:23 @ And he made a molten sea, ten cubits from brim to brim, all around it. And its height [was] five cubits, and a line of thirty cubits went around it.

mkjv@1Kings:7:25 @ It stood on twelve oxen, three facing the north, and three facing the west, and three facing the south, and three facing the east. The sea [was set] on top of them, and all their hinder parts [were] inward.

mkjv@1Kings:7:26 @ And it [was] a handbreadth thick, and its brim was fashioned like the brim of a cup, [with] a bud of a lily. It contained two thousand baths.

mkjv@1Kings:7:27 @ And he made ten bases of bronze, four cubits the length of the one base, and four cubits its breadth, and three cubits its height.

mkjv@1Kings:7:28 @ And the work of the bases [was] this [way]: they had borders, and the borders were between the stays.

mkjv@1Kings:7:29 @ And on the borders that [were] between the ledges [were] lions, oxen, and cherubs. And a pedestal was on the stays above. And beneath the lions and oxen [were] wreaths of hanging-work.

mkjv@1Kings:7:30 @ And the one base had four bronze wheels and axles of bronze. And its four feet [were] supports to them; under the basin were casted supports [with] wreaths at each side.

mkjv@1Kings:7:31 @ And its mouth within and above the capital [was] a cubit. And its mouth [was] round [like] the work of a pedestal, a cubit and half of the cubit. And also on its mouth were carvings; and their borders were square, not round.

mkjv@1Kings:7:32 @ And under the borders [were] four wheels. And the axletrees of the wheels [were] in the base. And the height of a wheel [was] a cubit and a half.

mkjv@1Kings:7:33 @ And the work of the wheels [was] like the work of a chariot wheel, their axletrees, and their rims, and their hub, and their spokes, [were] all cast.

mkjv@1Kings:7:34 @ And [there were] four supports to the four corners of one base, and the supports were of the very base itself.

mkjv@1Kings:7:35 @ And in the top of the base [was] a round compass of a half a cubit high. And on the top of the base its sides and its borders [were] from it.

mkjv@1Kings:7:36 @ And he engraved cherubs, lions, and palm trees on the plates of its sides, and on its borders, as the place of each, with wreaths all around.

mkjv@1Kings:7:38 @ And he made ten basins of bronze. One basin contained forty baths. The one basin was four cubits, one basin on the one base, to the ten bases.

mkjv@1Kings:7:39 @ And he put five bases on the right side of the house, and five on the left side of the house. And he set the sea on the right side of the house, eastward, across from the south.

mkjv@1Kings:7:40 @ And Hiram made the basins and the shovels and the bowls. So Hiram finished doing all the work that he did for] King Solomon [for] the house of the LORD.

mkjv@1Kings:7:41 @ Two pillars, and the bowls of the capitals on the top of the two pillars, and the two gratings to cover the two bowls of the capitals on the top of the pillars,

mkjv@1Kings:7:42 @ and the four hundred pomegranates for the two gratings; two rows of pomegranates for each grating, to cover the two bowls of the capitals which [were] on the face of the pillars,

mkjv@1Kings:7:45 @ and the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. All these vessels which Hiram made for King Solomon for the house of the LORD [were of] burnished bronze.

mkjv@1Kings:7:46 @ The king cast them in the plain of Jordan, in the thick soil of the ground between Succoth and Zarethan.

mkjv@1Kings:7:47 @ And Solomon left all the vessels [unweighed] because [they were] exceeding many; the weight of the bronze was not searched out.

mkjv@1Kings:7:48 @ And Solomon made all the vessels in the house of the LORD: the altar of gold, and the table of gold on which [was] the Bread of the Presence;

mkjv@1Kings:7:49 @ and the lampstands of pure gold, five on the right and five on the left, in front of the Holy of Holies, with the flowers and the lamps and the tongs [of] gold,

mkjv@1Kings:7:50 @ and the bowls, and the snuffers, and the basins, and the spoons, and the fire-pans [of] pure gold, and the hinges of gold for the doors of the inner house, the Holy of Holies, and for the doors of the house, the temple.

mkjv@1Kings:7:51 @ So all the work that King Solomon made for the house of the LORD was finished. And Solomon brought in the things which David his father had dedicated: the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, he had put into the treasuries of the house of the LORD.

mkjv@1Kings:8:1 @ And Solomon gathered the elders of Israel, and all the heads of the tribes, the chief of the fathers of the sons of Israel, to King Solomon in Jerusalem, so that they might bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of the city of David, which [is] Zion.

mkjv@1Kings:8:2 @ And all the men of Israel were gathered to king Solomon at the feast in the month Ethanim, which [is] the seventh month.

mkjv@1Kings:8:3 @ And all the elders of Israel came in, and the priests took up the ark.

mkjv@1Kings:8:4 @ And they brought up the ark of the LORD, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and all the holy vessels which [were] in the tabernacle; even those the priests and the Levites brought up.

mkjv@1Kings:8:5 @ And King Solomon, and all the congregation of Israel who had assembled to him, [were] with him before the ark sacrificing sheep and oxen which could not be counted nor numbered for multitude.

mkjv@1Kings:8:6 @ And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the LORD into its place, into the holy place of the house, into the Holy of Holies, under the wings of the cherubs.

mkjv@1Kings:8:7 @ For the cherubs spread forth [their] two wings over the place of the ark. And the cherubs covered the ark and the staves of it above.

mkjv@1Kings:8:8 @ And they drew out the staves, so that the ends of the staves were seen out in the holy [place], in front of the Holy of Holies. And they were not seen outside. And there they are until today.

mkjv@1Kings:8:9 @ There [was] nothing in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made [a covenant] with the sons of Israel when they came out of the land of Egypt.

mkjv@1Kings:8:10 @ And it happened when the priests had come out of the Holy of Holies, the cloud filled the house of the LORD.

mkjv@1Kings:8:11 @ And the priests could not stand to minister because of the cloud, for the glory of the LORD had filled the house of the LORD.

mkjv@1Kings:8:13 @ I have surely built a house of loftiness for You, a settled place for You to abide in forever.

mkjv@1Kings:8:14 @ And the king turned his face around and blessed all the congregation of Israel. And all the congregation of Israel stood.

mkjv@1Kings:8:15 @ And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of Israel, who spoke with His mouth to David my father, and has fulfilled [it] by His hand, saying,

mkjv@1Kings:8:16 @ From the day that I brought forth My people Israel out of Egypt, I did not choose any city out of all the tribes of Israel to build a house, so that My name might be in it. But I chose David to be over My people Israel.

mkjv@1Kings:8:19 @ Only, you shall not build the house, but your son who shall come out of your loins, he shall build the house to My name.

mkjv@1Kings:8:20 @ And the LORD has performed His word which He spoke, and I have risen up instead of my father David. And I sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised. And I have built a house for the name of the LORD God of Israel.

mkjv@1Kings:8:22 @ And Solomon stood before the altar of the LORD in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread forth his hands toward the heavens.

mkjv@1Kings:9:5 @ then I will establish the throne of your kingdom on Israel forever, as I promised to David your father, saying, There shall not be cut off to you a man on the throne of Israel.

mkjv@1Kings:9:7 @ then I will cut off Israel from the face of the land which I have given them. And this house which I have made holy for My name I will cast out of My sight. And Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people.

mkjv@1Kings:9:9 @ And they shall answer, Because they left the LORD their God who brought out their fathers from the land of Egypt, and have taken hold on other gods and have worshiped them and served them. On account of this the LORD has brought on them all this evil.

mkjv@1Kings:9:10 @ And it happened at the end of twenty years, Solomon had built the two houses, the house of the LORD and the king's house.

mkjv@1Kings:9:11 @ Hiram the king of Tyre had furnished Solomon with cedar trees and fir trees, and with gold, according to all his desires. Then King Solomon gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

mkjv@1Kings:9:13 @ And he said, What cities [are] these which you have given me, my brother? And he called them the land of Cabul to this day.

mkjv@1Kings:9:14 @ And Hiram sent to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold.

mkjv@1Kings:9:15 @ And this [is] the reason of the labor force which King Solomon raised to build the house of the LORD and his own house, and Millo, and the wall of Jerusalem, and Hazor, and Megiddo, and Gezer.

mkjv@1Kings:9:16 @ For Pharaoh, king of Egypt, had gone up and had taken Gezer and had burned it with fire, and had slain the Canaanites who lived in the city. And he had given it [for] a present to his daughter, Solomon's wife.

mkjv@1Kings:9:19 @ And he built all the store-cities which Solomon had, and cities for his chariots, and cities for his horsemen, and that which Solomon desired to build in Jerusalem, and in Lebanon, and in all the land of his dominion.

mkjv@1Kings:9:21 @ their sons who were left after them in the land, whom the sons of Israel also were not able to destroy completely, on those Solomon laid a tribute of bond-service to this day.

mkjv@1Kings:9:22 @ But Solomon did not make any slave out of the sons of Israel. But they [were] men of war, and his servants, and his rulers, and his commanders, and rulers of his chariots, and his horsemen.

mkjv@1Kings:9:23 @ These [were] the chief of the officers who [were] over Solomon's work, five hundred and fifty who ruled over the people who labored in the work.

mkjv@1Kings:9:24 @ But Pharaoh's daughter came up from the city of David to her house which had been built for her. And he built Millo.

mkjv@1Kings:9:25 @ And three times in a year Solomon offered burnt offerings and peace offerings on the altar which he had built to the LORD, and he burned incense on the altar which [was] before the LORD. And he finished the house.

mkjv@1Kings:9:26 @ And King Solomon made a navy of ships in Ezion-geber, which [is] beside Eloth, on the shore of the Red Sea, in the land of Edom.

mkjv@1Kings:9:27 @ And Hiram sent in the navy his servants, shipmen who had knowledge of the sea, with the servants of Solomon.

mkjv@1Kings:10:1 @ And the queen of Sheba heard of Solomon's fame concerning the name of the LORD, and she came to test him with hard questions.

mkjv@1Kings:10:5 @ and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their clothing, and his cupbearers, and his burnt offering that he offered up to the house of the LORD, there was no more spirit in her.

mkjv@1Kings:10:6 @ And she said to the king, It was a true report which I heard in my own land of your acts and of your wisdom.

mkjv@1Kings:10:9 @ Blessed is Jehovah your God, who delighted in you, to set you on the throne of Israel. Because the LORD loved Israel forever; therefore, He made you king to do judgment and justice.

mkjv@1Kings:10:10 @ And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, a very great store of spices, and precious stones. No spice like that came any more for abundance, that the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.

mkjv@1Kings:10:11 @ And also the navy of Hiram which brought gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir great abundance of almug trees and precious stones.

mkjv@1Kings:10:12 @ And the king made of the almug trees a support for the house of the LORD, and for the king's house, also lyres and harps for singers. No such almug wood has come or been seen to this day.

mkjv@1Kings:10:13 @ And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, besides what Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned and went to her own country, she and her servants.

mkjv@1Kings:10:17 @ And [he made] three hundred shields of beaten gold; three minas of gold went into one shield. And the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

mkjv@1Kings:10:18 @ And the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the best gold.

mkjv@1Kings:10:19 @ The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne [was] round in the back part. And [there were] stays on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the stays;

mkjv@1Kings:10:21 @ And all King Solomon's drinking vessels [were of] gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon [were of] pure gold. None were of silver; it was counted nothing in the days of Solomon.

mkjv@1Kings:10:22 @ For the king had at sea a navy of Tarshish with the navy of Hiram. Once in three years the navy of Tarshish came bringing gold and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.

mkjv@1Kings:10:23 @ And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.

mkjv@1Kings:10:25 @ And every man brought his presents, vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and clothing and armor, and spices, horses and mules, so much year by year.

mkjv@1Kings:11:2 @ of the nations which the LORD had said to the sons of Israel, You shall not go in to them, and they shall not go in to you; surely they will turn away your heart after their gods. Solomon clung to these in love.

mkjv@1Kings:11:4 @ For it happened when Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after other gods. And his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as [was] the heart of David his father.

mkjv@1Kings:11:5 @ For Solomon went after Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom, the abomination of the Ammonites;

mkjv@1Kings:11:6 @ and Solomon did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and did not [go] fully after the LORD like his father David.

mkjv@1Kings:11:7 @ Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill which [is] before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the sons of Ammon.

mkjv@1Kings:11:9 @ And the LORD [was] angry with Solomon because his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice

mkjv@1Kings:11:12 @ But I will not do it in your days, for David your father's sake, [but] I will tear it out of the hand of your son.

mkjv@1Kings:11:14 @ And it happened the LORD stirred up a foe to Solomon, Hadad the Edomite. He [was] of the king's seed in Edom.

mkjv@1Kings:11:15 @ For it happened when David was in Edom, and Joab the commander of the army had gone up to bury the slain, after he had stricken every male in Edom--

mkjv@1Kings:11:16 @ for Joab remained there six months with all Israel, until he had cut off every male in Edom--

mkjv@1Kings:11:19 @ And Hadad found great favor in the sight of Pharaoh, so that he gave him the sister of his own wife for a wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.

mkjv@1Kings:11:20 @ And the sister of Tahpenes bore him Genubath his son, whom Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh's house. And Genubath was in Pharaoh's household among the sons of Pharaoh.

mkjv@1Kings:11:21 @ And when Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the commander of the army was dead, even Hadad said to Pharaoh, Let me depart so that I may go to my own land.

mkjv@1Kings:11:23 @ And God stirred up [another] foe, to him, Rezon the son of Eliadah, who fled from his lord Hadadezer king of Zobah.

mkjv@1Kings:11:25 @ And he was a foe to Israel all the days of Solomon, besides the mischief which Hadad [did]. And he hated Israel and reigned over Syria.

mkjv@1Kings:11:26 @ And Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zereda, Solomon's servant, whose mother's name [was] Zeruah, a widow, he too lifted up [his] hand against the king.

mkjv@1Kings:11:27 @ And this [was] the cause that he lifted up [his] hand against the king. Solomon built Millo [and] repaired the breaks of the city of David his father.

mkjv@1Kings:11:28 @ And the man Jeroboam [was] a mighty man of war. And Solomon, seeing that the young man was doing work, he made him ruler over all the charge of the house of Joseph.

mkjv@1Kings:11:29 @ And it happened at that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah from Shiloh found him in the way. And he had clothed himself with a new garment. And the two of them [were] alone in the field.

mkjv@1Kings:11:30 @ And Ahijah caught hold of the new robe on him, and tore it [in] twelve pieces.

mkjv@1Kings:11:31 @ And he said to Jeroboam, Take ten pieces for yourself. For so says the LORD, the God of Israel, Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and will give ten tribes to you,

mkjv@1Kings:11:32 @ but he shall have one tribe for My servant David's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel,

mkjv@1Kings:11:33 @ because they have forsaken Me, and have worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the goddess of the sons of Ammon, and have not walked in My ways, to do [what is right] in My eyes, and to keep My statutes and My judgments, as David his father did.

mkjv@1Kings:11:34 @ But I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him ruler all the days of his life for the sake of David My servant, whom I chose, because he kept My commandments and My statutes.

mkjv@1Kings:12:3 @ they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all the congregation of Israel came and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,

mkjv@1Kings:12:4 @ Your father made our yoke hard. And now lighten the hard service of your father, and the heavy yoke which he put on us, and we will serve you.

mkjv@1Kings:12:8 @ But he left the counsel of the old men which they had advised him, and talked with the young men who had grown up with him, who stood before him.

mkjv@1Kings:12:14 @ and spoke to them according to the advice of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke. My father whipped you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.

mkjv@1Kings:12:15 @ And the king did not listen to the people, for the cause was from the LORD, that He might perform His saying which the LORD spoke by Ahijah of Shiloh to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

mkjv@1Kings:12:16 @ And all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, and the people answered the king, saying, What part do we have in David? Yea, [there is] no inheritance in the son of Jesse. To your tents, O Israel! Now see to your house, O David! And Israel went to its tents.

mkjv@1Kings:12:17 @ [As for] the sons of Israel, those living in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.

mkjv@1Kings:12:19 @ And Israel rebelled against the house of David to this day.

mkjv@1Kings:12:20 @ And it happened when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had come again, they sent and called him to the company, and made him king over all Israel. There was none who followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.

mkjv@1Kings:12:21 @ And when Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, and he gathered all the house of Judah with the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.

mkjv@1Kings:12:28 @ And the king took counsel, and made two calves [of] gold and said to them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Behold your gods, O, Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!

mkjv@1Kings:12:31 @ And he made a house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of the people, who were not the sons of Levi.

mkjv@1Kings:18:10 @ [As] the LORD your God lives, there is no nation nor kingdom where my lord has not sent to seek you. And when they said, He is not there, he took an oath of the kingdom and nation that they did not find you.

mkjv@1Kings:18:32 @ And with stones he built an altar in the name of the LORD. And he made a trench around the altar big enough to contain two measures of seed.

mkjv@Nehemiah:5:15 @ But the former governors that [had been] before me were too heavy upon the people, and had taken bread and wine from them, besides forty shekels of silver. Yes, even their servants bore rule over the people. But I did not do this, because of the fear of God.

mkjv@Nehemiah:5:18 @ And that which [was] prepared daily [was] one ox and six choice sheep; and birds were prepared; and once in ten days store of all sorts of wine. Yet for all this I did not seek the bread of the governor, because the bondage was heavy upon this people.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:2 @ Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, Come, let us meet together in the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me harm.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:6 @ It is reported among the nations, and Gashmu says [it], that you and the Jews are thinking of rebelling, for this reason you build the wall, so that you may be their king, according to these words.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:8 @ And I sent to him saying, These things which you are saying are not happening, but you pretend them out of your own heart.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:9 @ For they all were alarmers of us, saying, Their hands shall be weakened from the work so that it may not be done. And now, [O God], make my hands strong.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:10 @ And I came to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah the son of Mehetabeel, who [was] shut up.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:14 @ My God, think upon Tobiah and Sanballat according to these works of theirs, and on the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets who would have made me afraid.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:15 @ And the wall was finished in the twenty-fifth [day] of Elul, in fifty-two days.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:17 @ And in those days the nobles of Judah were increasing their letters going to Tobiah; and Tobiah's came to them.

mkjv@Nehemiah:6:18 @ For many in Judah [were] sworn to him because he [was] the son-in-law of Shechaniah the son of Arah, and his son Jehohanan had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah.

mkjv@Nehemiah:7:2 @ I gave my brother Hanani, and Hananiah the ruler of the palace, charge over Jerusalem. For he [was] a faithful man, and feared God above many.

mkjv@Matthew:4:23 @ And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people.

mkjv@Matthew:4:25 @ And great multitudes of people followed Him, from Galilee and Decapolis and Jerusalem and Judea and beyond Jordan.

mkjv@Matthew:5:3 @ Blessed [are] the poor in spirit! For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:9 @ Blessed [are] the peacemakers! For they shall be called the sons of God.

mkjv@Matthew:5:10 @ Blessed [are] they who have been persecuted for righteousness sake! For theirs is the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:11 @ Blessed are you when [men] shall revile you and persecute [you], and shall say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for My sake.

mkjv@Matthew:5:13 @ You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt loses its savor, with what shall it be salted? It is no longer good for anything, but to be thrown out and to be trodden underfoot by men.

mkjv@Matthew:5:14 @ You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.

mkjv@Matthew:5:19 @ Therefore whoever shall break one of these commandments, the least, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of Heaven. But whoever shall do and teach [them], the same shall be called great in the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:20 @ For I say to you that unless your righteousness shall exceed [that] of the scribes and Pharisees, you shall in no case enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be liable to the judgment. And whoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be liable to the sanhedrin; but whoever shall say, Fool! shall be liable [to be thrown] into the fire of hell.

mkjv@Matthew:5:23 @ Therefore if you offer your gift on the altar, and there remember that your brother has anything against you,

mkjv@Matthew:5:24 @ leave your gift there before the altar and go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift.

mkjv@Matthew:5:25 @ Agree with your adversary quickly, while you are in the way with him; that the opponent not deliver you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and you be thrown into prison.

mkjv@Matthew:5:29 @ And if your right eye offends you, pluck it out and throw [it] from you. For it is profitable for you that one of your members should perish, and not [that] your whole body should be thrown into hell.

mkjv@Matthew:5:30 @ And if your right hand offends you, cut it off and throw [it] from you. For it is profitable for you [that] one of your members should perish, and not that your whole body should be thrown into hell.

mkjv@Matthew:5:31 @ It was also said, Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a bill of divorce.

mkjv@Matthew:5:32 @ But I say to you that whoever shall put away his wife, except for the cause of fornication, causes her to commit adultery. And whoever shall marry her who is put away commits adultery.

mkjv@Matthew:5:35 @ not by the earth, for it is the footstool of His feet; not by Jerusalem, because it is [the] city of the great King;

mkjv@Matthew:5:42 @ Give to him who asks of you, and you shall not turn away from him who would borrow from you.

mkjv@Matthew:5:45 @ so that you may become sons of your Father in Heaven. For He makes His sun to rise on [the] evil and on [the] good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

mkjv@Matthew:6:5 @ And when you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, They have their reward.

mkjv@Matthew:6:8 @ Therefore do not be like them, for your Father knows what things you have need of, before you ask Him.

mkjv@Matthew:6:16 @ And when you fast, do not be like the hypocrites, of a sad face. For they disfigure their faces so that they may appear to men to fast. Truly I say to you, they have their reward.

mkjv@Matthew:6:22 @ The light of the body is the eye. Therefore if your eye is sound, your whole body shall be full of light.

mkjv@Matthew:6:23 @ But if your eye is evil, your whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light [that is] in you is darkness, how great [is] that darkness!

mkjv@Matthew:6:26 @ Behold the birds of the air; for they sow not, nor do they reap, nor gather into barns. Yet your heavenly Father feeds them; are you not much better than they are?

mkjv@Matthew:6:27 @ Which of you [by] being anxious can add one cubit to his stature?

mkjv@Matthew:6:28 @ And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They do not toil, nor do they spin,

mkjv@Matthew:6:29 @ but I say to you that even Solomon in his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

mkjv@Matthew:6:30 @ Therefore if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, [will He] not much rather [clothe] you, little-faiths?

mkjv@Matthew:6:32 @ For the nations seek after all these things. For your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things.

mkjv@Matthew:6:33 @ But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you.

mkjv@Matthew:6:34 @ Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow; for tomorrow shall be anxious for its own things. Sufficient to the day [is] the evil of it.

mkjv@Matthew:7:4 @ Or how will you say to your brother, Let me pull the splinter out of your eye; and, behold, a beam [is] in your own eye?

mkjv@Matthew:7:5 @ Hypocrite! First cast the beam out of your own eye, and then you shall see clearly to cast the splinter out of your brother's eye.

mkjv@Matthew:7:9 @ Or what man is there of you, if his son asks a loaf, will he give him a stone?

mkjv@Matthew:7:15 @ Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

mkjv@Matthew:7:21 @ Not everyone who says to Me, Lord! Lord! shall enter the kingdom of Heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:7:24 @ Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on a rock.

mkjv@Matthew:7:26 @ And everyone who hears these sayings of Mine and does not do them shall be compared to a foolish man who built his house on the sand.

mkjv@Matthew:8:4 @ And Jesus said to him, See that you tell no one; but go, show yourself to the priest. And offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

mkjv@Matthew:8:8 @ The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof; but only speak the word, and my boy will be healed.

mkjv@Matthew:8:11 @ And I say to you that many shall come from the east and the west, and shall sit down with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:8:12 @ But the sons of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:8:20 @ And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air [have] nests, but the Son of man has nowhere to lay [His] head.

mkjv@Matthew:8:21 @ And another of His disciples said to him, Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.

mkjv@Matthew:8:27 @ But the men marveled, saying, What kind [of man] is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!

mkjv@Matthew:8:28 @ And when He had come to the other side into the country of the Gergesenes, two demon-possessed ones met Him, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one might pass by that way.

mkjv@Matthew:8:29 @ And behold, they cried out, saying, What [have] we to do with You, Jesus, Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?

mkjv@Matthew:8:30 @ And there was a good way off from them a herd of many swine, feeding.

mkjv@Matthew:8:31 @ And the demons begged Him, saying, If You cast us out, allow us to go away into the herd of swine.

mkjv@Matthew:8:32 @ And He said to them, Go! And when they had come out, they went into the herd of swine. And behold, the whole herd of swine ran violently down a steep place into the sea and perished in the waters.

mkjv@Matthew:8:33 @ And those who fed [them] fled. And going into the city, [they] told everything, and what had happened to the ones who had been possessed of demons.

mkjv@Matthew:8:34 @ And behold, the whole city came out to meet Jesus. And when they saw Him, they begged that He would depart out of their borders.

mkjv@Matthew:9:2 @ And behold, they brought to Him a paralytic, lying on a bed. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, Child, be of good cheer. Your sins are forgiven you.

mkjv@Matthew:9:3 @ And lo, some of the scribes said within themselves, This one blasphemes.

mkjv@Matthew:9:6 @ But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins, then He said to the paralytic, Arise, take up your bed and go to your house.

mkjv@Matthew:9:9 @ And as Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax-office. And He said to him, Follow Me! And he arose and followed Him.

mkjv@Matthew:9:14 @ Then the disciples of John came to Him saying, Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but Your disciples do not fast?

mkjv@Matthew:9:15 @ And Jesus said to them, Can the sons of the bridechamber mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then they shall fast.

mkjv@Matthew:9:16 @ No one puts a piece of new cloth onto an old garment; for that which is put in to fill it up takes from the garment, and the tear is made worse.

mkjv@Matthew:9:20 @ And behold, a woman, who had a flow of blood for twelve years, came up behind [Him] and touched the hem of His garment.

mkjv@Matthew:9:27 @ And when Jesus passed on from there, two blind ones followed Him, crying and saying, Son of David, have mercy on us.

mkjv@Matthew:9:34 @ But the Pharisees said, He throws out demons by the ruler of the demons.

mkjv@Matthew:9:35 @ And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.

mkjv@Matthew:9:38 @ Therefore pray to the Lord of the harvest that He will send out laborers into His harvest.

mkjv@Matthew:10:1 @ And when He had called to [Him] His twelve disciples, He gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease.

mkjv@Matthew:10:2 @ And the names of the twelve apostles are these: First, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James [the son] of Zebedee and John his brother;

mkjv@Matthew:10:3 @ Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax-collector; James [the son] of Alpheus, and Lebbeus, whose surname was Thaddeus;

mkjv@Matthew:10:5 @ Jesus sent out these twelve, commanding them, saying, Do not go into the way of the nations, and do not enter into [any] city of [the] Samaritans.

mkjv@Matthew:10:6 @ But rather go to the lost sheep of [the] house of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:10:7 @ And as you go, proclaim, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.

mkjv@Matthew:10:10 @ nor a bag for [the] journey, nor two coats, nor sandals, nor staves. For the workman is worthy of his food.

mkjv@Matthew:10:14 @ And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when you depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.

mkjv@Matthew:10:15 @ Truly I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

mkjv@Matthew:10:16 @ Behold, I send you out as sheep in [the] midst of wolves. Therefore be as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves.

mkjv@Matthew:10:17 @ But beware of men, for they will deliver you up to the sanhedrins, and they will scourge you in their synagogues.

mkjv@Matthew:10:20 @ For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

mkjv@Matthew:10:22 @ And you will be hated of all [men] for My name's sake, but the [one] who endures to [the] end shall be kept safe.

mkjv@Matthew:10:23 @ But when they persecute you in this city, flee into another; for truly I say to you, In no way shall you have finished the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes.

mkjv@Matthew:10:25 @ It is enough for the disciple that he is like his master, and the servant like his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more those of his household?

mkjv@Matthew:10:29 @ Are not two sparrows sold for an assarion? And one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father.

mkjv@Matthew:10:30 @ But even the hairs of your head are all numbered.

mkjv@Matthew:10:31 @ Therefore do not fear, you are of more value than many sparrows.

mkjv@Matthew:10:36 @ And a man's foes [shall be] those of his [own] household.

mkjv@Matthew:10:37 @ He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.

mkjv@Matthew:10:38 @ And he who does not take up his cross and follow Me is not worthy of Me.

mkjv@Matthew:10:41 @ He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward. And he who receives a just [one] in the name of a just one will receive a just [one's] reward.

mkjv@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever shall give to one of these little ones a cup of cold [water] to drink, only in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, He shall in no way lose his reward.

mkjv@Matthew:11:2 @ But when John heard in the prison of the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples.

mkjv@Matthew:11:6 @ And blessed is [he], whoever shall not be offended in Me.

mkjv@Matthew:11:8 @ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft [clothing]? Behold, they who wear soft [clothing] are in kings' houses.

mkjv@Matthew:11:10 @ For this is [the one] of whom it is written, Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who shall prepare Your way before You.

mkjv@Matthew:11:11 @ Truly I say to you, Among [those] who have been born of women there has not risen a greater one than John the Baptist. But the least in the kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.

mkjv@Matthew:11:12 @ And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of Heaven is taken by violence, and the violent take it by force.

mkjv@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a man who is a glutton and a winebibber, a friend of tax-collectors and sinners. But wisdom was justified by her children.

mkjv@Matthew:11:20 @ Then He began to upbraid the cities in which most of His mighty works were done, because they did not repent.

mkjv@Matthew:11:22 @ But I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you.

mkjv@Matthew:11:24 @ But I say to you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for you.

mkjv@Matthew:11:25 @ At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank You, O Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from [the] sophisticated and cunning, and revealed them to babes.

mkjv@Matthew:11:29 @ Take My yoke on you and learn of Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you shall find rest to your souls.

mkjv@Matthew:12:1 @ At that time Jesus went through the grain fields on the sabbath day. And His disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the heads [of grain] and to eat.

mkjv@Matthew:12:4 @ how he entered into the house of God and ate the showbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, nor for those who were with him, but only for the priests?

mkjv@Matthew:12:5 @ Or have you not read in the Law that on the sabbath days the priests in the temple profane the sabbath and are blameless?

mkjv@Matthew:12:8 @ For the Son of man is Lord even of the sabbath.

mkjv@Matthew:12:23 @ And all the people were amazed and said, Is not this the son of David?

mkjv@Matthew:12:24 @ But when the Pharisees heard, they said, This [one] does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub the ruler of the demons.

mkjv@Matthew:12:28 @ But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come to you.

mkjv@Matthew:12:31 @ Therefore I say to you, All kinds of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven to men, but the blasphemy [against] the Holy Spirit shall not be forgiven to men.

mkjv@Matthew:12:32 @ And whoever speaks a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him. But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it shall not be forgiven him, either in this world or in the [world] to come.

mkjv@Matthew:12:34 @ Offspring of vipers! How can you, being evil, speak good things? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.

mkjv@Matthew:12:35 @ A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings out good things; and an evil man out of the evil treasure brings out evil things.

mkjv@Matthew:12:36 @ But I say to you that every idle word, whatever men may speak, they shall give account of it in the day of judgment.

mkjv@Matthew:12:38 @ Then certain of the scribes and of the Pharisees answered, saying, Master, we want to see a sign from you.

mkjv@Matthew:12:39 @ But He answered and said to them, An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign. And there shall be no sign given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.

mkjv@Matthew:12:40 @ For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the huge fish, so the Son of man shall be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

mkjv@Matthew:12:41 @ The men of Nineveh shall rise in judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, because they repented at the proclaiming of Jonah, and behold, [One] greater than Jonah [is] here.

mkjv@Matthew:12:42 @ The queen of the south shall rise up in the Judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, for she came from the uttermost parts of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, [One] greater than Solomon [is] here.

mkjv@Matthew:12:43 @ When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he walks through dry places seeking rest, and finds none.

mkjv@Matthew:12:45 @ Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more evil than himself, and they enter in and live there. And the last [state] of that man is worse than the first. Even so it also shall be to this evil generation.

mkjv@Matthew:12:50 @ For whoever shall do the will of My Father in Heaven, the same is My brother and sister and mother.

mkjv@Matthew:13:1 @ In that day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the seaside.

mkjv@Matthew:13:5 @ Some fell on stony places, where they did not have much earth. And they sprang up immediately, because they [had] no deepness of earth.

mkjv@Matthew:13:11 @ He answered and said to them, Because it is given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of Heaven, but it is not given to them.

mkjv@Matthew:13:14 @ And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which said, By hearing you shall hear and shall not understand; and seeing you shall see and shall not perceive;

mkjv@Matthew:13:15 @ for this people's heart has become gross, and [their] ears are dull of hearing, and they have closed their eyes, lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with [their ears and should understand with [their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

mkjv@Matthew:13:18 @ Therefore hear the parable of the sower.

mkjv@Matthew:13:19 @ When anyone hears the Word of the kingdom and does not understand [it,] then the wicked one comes and catches away that which was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown by the wayside.

mkjv@Matthew:13:21 @ But he has no root in himself, and is temporary. For when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, he immediately stumbles.

mkjv@Matthew:13:22 @ And that sown into the thorns is this: he who hears the Word; and the anxiety of this world, and the deceit of riches, choke the Word, and he becomes unfruitful.

mkjv@Matthew:13:24 @ He put out another parable to them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field.

mkjv@Matthew:13:27 @ So the servants of the householder came and said to him, Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? Then where have the darnel come from?

mkjv@Matthew:13:30 @ Let both grow together until the harvest. And in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, First gather together the darnel and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my granary.

mkjv@Matthew:13:31 @ He put out another parable to them, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field;

mkjv@Matthew:13:32 @ which indeed is the least of all seeds, but when it is grown it is the greatest among herbs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in its branches.

mkjv@Matthew:13:33 @ He spoke another parable to them: The kingdom of Heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until the whole was leavened.

mkjv@Matthew:13:35 @ so that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

mkjv@Matthew:13:36 @ Then sending the crowds away, Jesus went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, Explain to us the parable of the darnel of the field.

mkjv@Matthew:13:37 @ He answered and said to them, He who sows the good seed is the Son of man;

mkjv@Matthew:13:38 @ the field is the world; the good seed are the sons of the kingdom; but the darnel are the sons of the evil [one].

mkjv@Matthew:13:39 @ The enemy who sowed them is the Devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

mkjv@Matthew:13:40 @ Therefore as the darnel are gathered and burned in the fire, so it shall be in the end of this world.

mkjv@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of man shall send out His angels, and they shall gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who do iniquity,

mkjv@Matthew:13:42 @ and shall cast them into a furnace of fire. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:13:43 @ Then the righteous shall shine out like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

mkjv@Matthew:13:44 @ Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which when a man has found it, he hides it, and for the joy of it goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field.

mkjv@Matthew:13:45 @ Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like a merchant seeking beautiful pearls;

mkjv@Matthew:13:46 @ who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

mkjv@Matthew:13:47 @ Again, the kingdom of Heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea, and gathered some of every kind;

mkjv@Matthew:13:49 @ So it shall be at the end of the world. The angels shall come out and separate the wicked from among the just,

mkjv@Matthew:13:50 @ and shall cast them into the furnace of fire. There shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:13:52 @ Then He said to them, Therefore every scribe [who is] instructed to the kingdom of Heaven is like a man who is a householder, who brings out [things] new and old out of his treasure.

mkjv@Matthew:13:57 @ And they were offended in Him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honor, except in his own country and in his own house.

mkjv@Matthew:13:58 @ And He did not do many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

mkjv@Matthew:14:1 @ At that time Herod the tetrarch heard of the fame of Jesus

mkjv@Matthew:14:3 @ For Herod had laid hold on John, and had bound him, and had put [him] in prison because of Herodias his brother Philip's wife.

mkjv@Matthew:14:6 @ But when Herod's birthday was kept, the daughter of Herodias danced before them and pleased Herod.

mkjv@Matthew:14:13 @ When Jesus heard, He departed from there by boat into a deserted place apart. And hearing, the crowds followed Him on foot out of the cities.

mkjv@Matthew:14:24 @ But the boat was now in [the] midst of the sea, tossed with waves; for the wind was against them.

mkjv@Matthew:14:25 @ And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea.

mkjv@Matthew:14:27 @ But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, Be of good cheer, I AM! Do not fear.

mkjv@Matthew:14:29 @ And He said, Come. And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus.

mkjv@Matthew:14:33 @ And those in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, Truly You are the Son of God.

mkjv@Matthew:14:34 @ And when they had passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret.

mkjv@Matthew:14:35 @ And recognizing Him, the men of that place sent to all that neighborhood, and brought to Him all who were diseased.

mkjv@Matthew:14:36 @ And [they] begged Him that they might only touch the hem of His robe. And as many as touched were made perfectly whole.

mkjv@Matthew:15:2 @ Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread.

mkjv@Matthew:15:3 @ But He answered and said to them, Why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?

mkjv@Matthew:15:4 @ For God commanded, saying, Honor your father and mother; and, He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him die by death.

mkjv@Matthew:15:6 @ and in no way he honors his father or his mother. And you voided the commandment of God by your tradition.

mkjv@Matthew:15:7 @ Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:15:9 @ But in vain they worship Me, teaching [for] doctrines [the] commandments of men.

mkjv@Matthew:15:11 @ Not that which goes into the mouth defiles a man; but that which comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man.

mkjv@Matthew:15:12 @ Then His disciples came and said to Him, Do You know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this saying?

mkjv@Matthew:15:14 @ Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.

mkjv@Matthew:15:18 @ But the things which come out of the mouth come from the heart, and they defile the man.

mkjv@Matthew:15:19 @ For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies;

mkjv@Matthew:15:21 @ And going out from there, Jesus withdrew to the parts of Tyre and Sidon.

mkjv@Matthew:15:22 @ And behold, a woman of Canaan coming out of these borders cried to Him, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is grievously vexed with a demon.

mkjv@Matthew:15:24 @ But He answered and said, I am not sent except to the lost sheep of [the] house of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:15:27 @ And she said, True, O Lord; but even the little dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' tables.

mkjv@Matthew:15:29 @ And moving from there Jesus came beside the Sea of Galilee. And He went up into a mountain and sat there.

mkjv@Matthew:15:31 @ so much so that the crowd wondered when they saw the dumb speak, the maimed sound, the lame walk, and the blind see. And they glorified the God of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:15:37 @ And they all ate, and were filled; and they took up seven lunch baskets full of the pieces that was left.

mkjv@Matthew:15:39 @ And sending the crowd away, He went into the boat and came into the borders of Magdala.

mkjv@Matthew:16:3 @ And in the morning, Foul weather today; for the sky is red and gloomy. Hypocrites! You can discern the face of the sky, but you cannot [see] the signs of the times!

mkjv@Matthew:16:4 @ A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign. And there shall no sign be given to it, except the sign of the prophet Jonah. And He left them and went away.

mkjv@Matthew:16:6 @ And Jesus said to them, Take heed, and beware the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.

mkjv@Matthew:16:9 @ Do you not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand baskets you took up;

mkjv@Matthew:16:10 @ nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many lunch baskets you took up?

mkjv@Matthew:16:11 @ How is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you about loaves, but to beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?

mkjv@Matthew:16:12 @ Then they understood that He did not say to beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

mkjv@Matthew:16:13 @ And coming into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus asked His disciples, saying, Who do men say Me to be, the Son of man?

mkjv@Matthew:16:14 @ And they said, Some [say], John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.

mkjv@Matthew:16:16 @ And Simon Peter answered and said, You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.

mkjv@Matthew:16:17 @ Jesus answered and said to him, You are blessed, Simon, son of Jonah, for flesh and blood did not reveal [it] to you, but My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:16:18 @ And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and [the] gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

mkjv@Matthew:16:19 @ And I will give the keys of the kingdom of Heaven to you. And whatever you may bind on earth shall occur, having been bound in Heaven, and whatever you may loose on earth shall occur, having been loosed in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:16:23 @ But He turned and said to Peter, Go, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you do not savor the things that are of God, but those that are of men.

mkjv@Matthew:16:26 @ For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul? Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

mkjv@Matthew:16:27 @ For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He shall reward each one according to his works.

mkjv@Matthew:16:28 @ Truly I say to you, There are some standing here who shall not taste of death until they see the Son of man coming in His kingdom.

mkjv@Matthew:17:5 @ While he yet spoke, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them. And behold a voice out of the cloud which said, This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, hear Him.

mkjv@Matthew:17:9 @ And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, Tell the vision to no one until the Son of man has risen from the dead.

mkjv@Matthew:17:12 @ But I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not know him, but have done to him whatever they desired. Likewise also the Son of man shall suffer from them.

mkjv@Matthew:17:15 @ Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is a lunatic and grievously vexed; for oftentimes he falls into the fire, and often into the water.

mkjv@Matthew:17:18 @ And Jesus rebuked the demon, and he departed out of him. And the child was cured from that very hour.

mkjv@Matthew:17:20 @ And Jesus said to them, Because of your unbelief. For truly I say to you, If you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, Move from here to there. And it shall move. And nothing shall be impossible to you.

mkjv@Matthew:17:22 @ And while they stayed in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men.

mkjv@Matthew:17:25 @ He said, Yes. And when he had come into the house, Jesus anticipated him, saying, What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? From their sons, or from strangers?

mkjv@Matthew:17:27 @ But lest we should offend them, go to the sea and cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. And when you have opened its mouth, you shall find a stater; take that, and give it to them for Me and you.

mkjv@Matthew:18:1 @ At that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Who is the greater in the kingdom of Heaven?

mkjv@Matthew:18:3 @ and said, Truly I say to you, Unless you are converted and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:4 @ Therefore whoever shall humble himself like this little child, this one is the greater in the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:6 @ But whoever shall offend one of these little [ones] who believes in Me, it would be better for him that an ass's millstone were hung around his neck, and he be sunk in the depth of the sea.

mkjv@Matthew:18:7 @ Woe to the world because of offenses! For it is necessary that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense comes!

mkjv@Matthew:18:8 @ And if your hand or your foot causes you to offend, cut them off and throw [them] from you. It is better for you to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.

mkjv@Matthew:18:9 @ And if your eye offends you, pluck it out and throw [it] from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire.

mkjv@Matthew:18:10 @ Take heed [that] you do not despise one of these little [ones]. For I say to you that in Heaven their angels always behold the face of My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:11 @ For the Son of man has come to save that which was lost.

mkjv@Matthew:18:12 @ What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them strays, does he not leave the ninety and nine [and] go into the mountains and seek the straying one?

mkjv@Matthew:18:14 @ Even so it is not [the] will of your Father in Heaven that one of these little [ones] should perish.

mkjv@Matthew:18:16 @ But if he will not hear [you], take one or two more with you, so that in [the] mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.

mkjv@Matthew:18:19 @ Again I say to you that if two of you shall agree on earth as regarding anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them by My Father in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:18:21 @ Then Peter came to Him and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Until seven times?

mkjv@Matthew:18:23 @ Therefore the kingdom of Heaven has been compared to a certain king who desired to make an accounting with his servants.

mkjv@Matthew:18:27 @ Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion and released him and forgave him the debt.

mkjv@Matthew:18:28 @ But the same servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. And he laid hands on him and took [him] by the throat, saying, Pay me what you owe.

mkjv@Matthew:18:35 @ So likewise shall My heavenly Father do also to you, unless each one of you from your hearts forgive his brother their trespasses.

mkjv@Matthew:19:1 @ And it happened, when Jesus had finished these sayings, that He departed from Galilee and came into the borders of Judea beyond Jordan.

mkjv@Matthew:19:5 @ and said, For this cause a man shall leave father and mother and shall cling to his wife, and the two of them shall be one flesh?

mkjv@Matthew:19:7 @ They said to Him, Why did Moses then command to give a bill of divorce and to put her away?

mkjv@Matthew:19:8 @ He said to them, Because of your hard-heartedness Moses allowed you to put away your wives; but from the beginning it was not so.

mkjv@Matthew:19:10 @ His disciples said to Him, If this is the case of the man with [his] wife, it is not good to marry.

mkjv@Matthew:19:12 @ For there are some eunuchs who were born so from [their] mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of Heaven's sake. He who is able to receive [it], let him receive it.

mkjv@Matthew:19:14 @ But Jesus said, Allow the little children to come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:19:23 @ Then Jesus said to His disciples, Truly I say to you that a rich man will with great difficulty enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:19:24 @ And again I say to you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Matthew:19:28 @ And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of His glory, you also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

mkjv@Matthew:20:1 @ For the kingdom of Heaven is like a man, a housemaster, who went out early in the morning to hire laborers into his vineyard.

mkjv@Matthew:20:8 @ So when evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his steward, Call the laborers and pay them [their] wage, beginning from the last to the first.

mkjv@Matthew:20:11 @ And receiving [it] they murmured against the master of the house,

mkjv@Matthew:20:12 @ saying, These last have worked [only] one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden and heat of the day.

mkjv@Matthew:20:13 @ But he answered one of them and said, Friend, I do you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for a denarius?

mkjv@Matthew:20:18 @ Behold, we go up to Jerusalem. And the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes, and they shall condemn Him to death.

mkjv@Matthew:20:20 @ Then the mother of Zebedee's children came to Him with her sons, worshiping and desiring a certain thing from Him.

mkjv@Matthew:20:22 @ But Jesus answered and said, You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They said to Him, We are able.

mkjv@Matthew:20:23 @ And He said to them, You shall indeed drink of My cup and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but [to those] for whom it has been prepared by My Father.

mkjv@Matthew:20:25 @ But Jesus called them and said, You know that the rulers of the nations exercise dominion over them, and they who are great exercise authority over them.

mkjv@Matthew:20:28 @ even as the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many.

mkjv@Matthew:20:30 @ And behold, two blind men were sitting by the wayside. When they heard that Jesus passed by, they cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!

mkjv@Matthew:20:31 @ And the crowd rebuked them, saying that they should be silent. But they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!

mkjv@Matthew:21:1 @ And when they drew near Jerusalem, and had come to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

mkjv@Matthew:21:3 @ And if anyone says anything to you, you shall say, The Lord has need of them, and immediately He will send them.

mkjv@Matthew:21:5 @ Tell the daughter of Zion, Behold, your King comes to you, meek, and sitting on an ass, even a colt the foal of an ass.

mkjv@Matthew:21:9 @ And the crowds who went before, and those who followed, cried out, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed [is] He who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord! Hosanna in the highest!

mkjv@Matthew:21:11 @ And the crowd said, This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth of Galilee.

mkjv@Matthew:21:12 @ And Jesus went into the temple of God and cast out all those who sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of those who sold doves.

mkjv@Matthew:21:13 @ And He said to them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but you have made it a den of thieves.

mkjv@Matthew:21:15 @ And when the chief priests and scribes saw the wonderful things which He did, and the children crying in the temple, and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David, they were angry.

mkjv@Matthew:21:16 @ And they said to Him, Do you hear what these say? And Jesus said to them, Yes, have you never read, Out of [the] mouth of babes and sucklings You have perfected praise?

mkjv@Matthew:21:17 @ And leaving them, He went out of the city to Bethany, and spent the night there.

mkjv@Matthew:21:21 @ Jesus answered and said to them, Truly I say to you, If you have faith and do not doubt, you shall not only do [this miracle] of the fig tree, but also; if you shall say to this mountain, Be moved and be thrown into the sea; it shall be done.

mkjv@Matthew:21:23 @ And when He had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him [as He was] teaching, and said, By what authority do you do these things? And who gave you this authority?

mkjv@Matthew:21:25 @ The baptism of John, where was it from? From Heaven or from men? And they reasoned within themselves, saying, If we shall say, From Heaven, he will say to us, Why then did you not believe him?

mkjv@Matthew:21:31 @ Which of the two did the will of [his] father? They said to Him, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that the tax-collectors and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.

mkjv@Matthew:21:32 @ For John came to you in [the] way of righteousness, and you did not believe him. But the tax-collectors and the harlots believed him. And when you had seen [it], you did not repent afterwards so that you might believe him.

mkjv@Matthew:21:34 @ And when the season of the fruits drew near, he sent his servants to the vinedressers to receive its fruits.

mkjv@Matthew:21:37 @ But last of all he sent his son to them, saying, They will respect my son.

mkjv@Matthew:21:38 @ But when the vinedressers saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and get hold of his inheritance.

mkjv@Matthew:21:39 @ And taking him, they threw [him] out of the vineyard and killed [him].

mkjv@Matthew:21:40 @ Therefore when the lord of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers?

mkjv@Matthew:21:42 @ Jesus said to them, Did you never read in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, this One has become the head of [the] corner; this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes?

mkjv@Matthew:21:43 @ Therefore I say to you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you and given to a nation bringing out its fruits.

mkjv@Matthew:21:45 @ And when the chief priests and Pharisees heard His parables, they knew that He spoke of them.

mkjv@Matthew:22:2 @ The kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king who made a marriage for his son.

mkjv@Matthew:22:9 @ Therefore go into the exits of the highways, and as many as you shall find, invite them to the marriage.

mkjv@Matthew:22:13 @ Then the king said to the servants, Bind him hand and foot and take him away, and cast [him] into outer darkness. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:22:16 @ And they sent their disciples out to Him along with the Herodians, saying, Master, we know that you are true, and that you teach the way of God in truth. Nor do you care for anyone, for you do not regard [the] person of men.

mkjv@Matthew:22:27 @ And last of all the woman also died.

mkjv@Matthew:22:28 @ Therefore in the resurrection, whose wife shall she be, of the seven? For they all had her.

mkjv@Matthew:22:29 @ Jesus answered and said to them, You err, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.

mkjv@Matthew:22:30 @ For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in Heaven.

mkjv@Matthew:22:31 @ But regarding the resurrection of the dead, have you not read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,

mkjv@Matthew:22:32 @ I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

mkjv@Matthew:22:35 @ Then one of them, a lawyer, asked, tempting Him and saying,

mkjv@Matthew:22:42 @ saying, What do you think of Christ? Whose son is he? They say to Him, David's.

mkjv@Matthew:23:4 @ For they bind heavy and hard-to-carry burdens and lay [them] on men's shoulders. But they will not move them with one of their finger.

mkjv@Matthew:23:5 @ But they do all their works in order to be seen of men. They make their phylacteries broad and enlarge the borders of their garments.

mkjv@Matthew:23:13 @ But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of Heaven against men. For you neither go in, nor do you allow those entering to go in.

mkjv@Matthew:23:15 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you compass sea and the dry [land] to make one proselyte, and when he is made, you make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

mkjv@Matthew:23:16 @ Woe to you, blind guides, saying, Whoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor.

mkjv@Matthew:23:22 @ And he who shall swear by Heaven swears by the throne of God, and by Him who sits on it.

mkjv@Matthew:23:23 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithes of mint and dill and cummin, and you have left undone the weightier [matters] of the Law, judgment, mercy, and faith. You ought to have done these and not to leave the other undone.

mkjv@Matthew:23:25 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and of the dish, but inside they are full of extortion and excess.

mkjv@Matthew:23:26 @ Blind Pharisee! First cleanse the inside of the cup and of the dish, so that the outside of them may be clean also.

mkjv@Matthew:23:27 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which indeed appear beautiful outside, but inside they are full of dead [men's] bones, and of all uncleanness.

mkjv@Matthew:23:28 @ Even so you also appear righteous to men outwardly, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

mkjv@Matthew:23:29 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because you build the tombs of the prophets, and decorate the tombs of the righteous,

mkjv@Matthew:23:30 @ and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.

mkjv@Matthew:23:31 @ Therefore you are witnesses to yourselves, that you are the sons of those who killed the prophets;

mkjv@Matthew:23:32 @ and you fill up the measure of your fathers.

mkjv@Matthew:23:33 @ Serpents! Offspring of vipers! How can you escape the condemnation of hell?

mkjv@Matthew:23:34 @ Therefore, behold, I send prophets and wise men and scribes to you. And you will kill and crucify [some] of them. And some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute from city to city;

mkjv@Matthew:23:35 @ so that on you may come all [the] righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah the son of Berachiah, whom you killed between the temple and the altar.

mkjv@Matthew:23:37 @ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the [one] killing the prophets and stoning those who are sent to her, how often would I have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under [her] wings, and you would not!

mkjv@Matthew:23:39 @ For I say to you, You shall not see Me from now on until you say, Blessed [is] He who comes in [the] name of the Lord.

mkjv@Matthew:24:1 @ And Jesus went out and departed from the temple. And His disciples came to [Him] to show Him the buildings of the temple.

mkjv@Matthew:24:3 @ And as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? And what [shall be] the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the world?

mkjv@Matthew:24:6 @ And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled, for all [these things] must occur; but the end is not yet.

mkjv@Matthew:24:8 @ All these [are] the beginning of sorrows.

mkjv@Matthew:24:9 @ Then they will deliver you up to be afflicted and will kill you. And you will be hated of all nations for My name's sake.

mkjv@Matthew:24:10 @ And then many will be offended, and will betray one another, and will hate one another.

mkjv@Matthew:24:12 @ And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many will become cold.

mkjv@Matthew:24:14 @ And this gospel of the kingdom shall be proclaimed in all the world as a witness to all nations. And then the end shall come.

mkjv@Matthew:24:15 @ Therefore when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place (whoever reads, let him understand).

mkjv@Matthew:24:17 @ Let him on the housetop not come down to take anything out of his house;

mkjv@Matthew:24:21 @ for then shall be great tribulation, such as has not been since [the] beginning of [the] world to this time; no, nor ever shall be.

mkjv@Matthew:24:27 @ For as the lightning comes out of [the] east and shines even to [the] west, so also will be the coming of the Son of man.

mkjv@Matthew:24:29 @ And immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun shall be darkened and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

mkjv@Matthew:24:30 @ And then the sign of the Son of man shall appear in the heavens. And then all the tribes of the earth shall mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of the heaven with power and great glory.

mkjv@Matthew:24:31 @ And He shall send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of [the] heavens to the other.

mkjv@Matthew:24:32 @ Now learn a parable of the fig tree. When its branch is still tender and puts out leaves, you know that summer [is] near.

mkjv@Matthew:24:36 @ But of that day and hour no one knows, no, not the angels of Heaven, but only My Father.

mkjv@Matthew:24:37 @ But as the days of Noah [were], so shall be the coming of the Son of man.

mkjv@Matthew:24:39 @ And they did not know until the flood came and took them all away. So also will be the coming of the Son of man.

mkjv@Matthew:24:43 @ But know this, that if the steward of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched and would not have allowed his house to be dug through.

mkjv@Matthew:24:44 @ Therefore you also be ready, for in that hour you think not, the Son of man comes.

mkjv@Matthew:24:50 @ the Lord of that servant shall come in a day when he does not look for [Him], and in an hour which he does not know.

mkjv@Matthew:24:51 @ And He shall cut him apart and appoint [him] his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:25:1 @ Then shall the kingdom of Heaven be likened to ten virgins, who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

mkjv@Matthew:25:2 @ And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.

mkjv@Matthew:25:8 @ And the foolish said to the wise, Give us [some] of your oil, for our lamps have gone out.

mkjv@Matthew:25:13 @ Therefore watch, for you do not know either the day or the hour in which the Son of man comes.

mkjv@Matthew:25:19 @ After a long time the lord of those servants came and took account with them.

mkjv@Matthew:25:21 @ His lord said to him, Well [done], good and faithful servant! You have been faithful over a few things; I will [make] you [ruler] over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.

mkjv@Matthew:25:23 @ His lord said to him, Well [done], good and faithful servant! You have been faithful over a few things, I will [make] you [ruler] over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.

mkjv@Matthew:25:30 @ And throw the unprofitable servant into outer darkness; there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

mkjv@Matthew:25:31 @ But when the Son of man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He shall sit on the throne of His glory.

mkjv@Matthew:25:33 @ And indeed [He] shall set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats off the left.

mkjv@Matthew:25:34 @ Then the King shall say to those on His right [hand], Come, blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from [the] foundation of [the] world.

mkjv@Matthew:25:40 @ And the King shall answer and say to them, Truly I say to you, Inasmuch as you did [it] to one of the least of these My brothers, you have done [it] to Me.

mkjv@Matthew:25:45 @ Then He shall answer them, saying, Truly I say to you, Inasmuch as you did not do [it] to one of the least of these, you did not do [it] to Me.

mkjv@Matthew:26:2 @ You know that after two days the Passover comes, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

mkjv@Matthew:26:3 @ Then the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, assembled together to the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas.

mkjv@Matthew:26:6 @ And when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

mkjv@Matthew:26:7 @ a woman came to Him, having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured [it] on His head as He reclined.

mkjv@Matthew:26:13 @ Truly I say to you, Wherever this gospel shall be proclaimed in the whole world, that which this woman has done shall be spoken of also, for a memorial of her.

mkjv@Matthew:26:14 @ Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests.

mkjv@Matthew:26:15 @ And he said [to them], What will you give me, and I will betray Him to you? And they appointed to him thirty pieces of silver.

mkjv@Matthew:26:17 @ And on the first [day] of the [Feast of] Unleavened [Bread], the disciples came to Jesus, saying to Him, Where do You desire that we prepare for You to eat the Passover?

mkjv@Matthew:26:21 @ And as they ate, He said, Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me.

mkjv@Matthew:26:22 @ And grieving sorrowfully, they began to say, each one of them, Lord, not I am [the one]?

mkjv@Matthew:26:24 @ The Son of man goes, as it has been written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.

mkjv@Matthew:26:27 @ And He took the cup and gave thanks, and gave [it] to them, saying, Drink all of it.

mkjv@Matthew:26:28 @ For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

mkjv@Matthew:26:29 @ But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on, until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom.

mkjv@Matthew:26:30 @ And singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

mkjv@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus said to them, All of you will be offended because of Me this night. For it is written, I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.

mkjv@Matthew:26:33 @ Peter answered and said to Him, though all shall be offended because of You, I will never be offended.

mkjv@Matthew:26:37 @ And He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee with Him, and He began to be sorrowful and very heavy.

mkjv@Matthew:26:45 @ Then He came to His disciples and said to them, Sleep on now and take [your] rest. Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into [the] hands of sinners.

mkjv@Matthew:26:47 @ And as He was yet speaking, behold, Judas came, one of the Twelve. And with him came a great crowd with swords and clubs, being sent from the chief priests and elders of the people.

mkjv@Matthew:26:51 @ And, behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out [his] hand and drew his sword, and he struck a servant of the high priest and [cut] off his ear.

mkjv@Matthew:26:53 @ Do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He shall presently give Me more than twelve legions of angels?

mkjv@Matthew:26:56 @ But all this happened that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples fled, forsaking Him.

mkjv@Matthew:26:58 @ But Peter followed Him afar off to the high priest's court, and he went in and sat with the servants to see the end.

mkjv@Matthew:26:61 @ and said, This one said, I am able to destroy the temple of God and to build it in three days.

mkjv@Matthew:26:63 @ But Jesus was silent. And the high priest answered and said to Him, I adjure you by the living God that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.

mkjv@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus said to him, You said [it]. I tell you more. From this time you shall see the Son of man sitting on [the] right [hand] of power, and coming on the clouds of the heavens.

mkjv@Matthew:26:65 @ Then the high priest tore his clothes, saying, He has spoken blasphemy! What further need do we have of witnesses? Behold, now you have heard his blasphemy.

mkjv@Matthew:26:66 @ What do you think? They answered and said, He is worthy of death.

mkjv@Matthew:26:67 @ Then they spat in His face and beat Him with the fist. And others struck [Him] with the palms of their hands,

mkjv@Matthew:26:69 @ And Peter sat outside in the court. And a girl came to him, saying, You also were with Jesus of Galilee.

mkjv@Matthew:26:71 @ And when he had gone out into the porch, another saw him and said to those there, This one was also with Jesus of Nazareth.

mkjv@Matthew:26:73 @ And after a little while those who stood by came and said to Peter, Surely you also are [one] of them, for your speech betrays you.

mkjv@Matthew:26:75 @ And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, Who said to him, Before the cock crows, you shall deny Me three times. And he went out and wept bitterly.

mkjv@Matthew:27:1 @ And [it] becoming early morning, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put Him to death.

mkjv@Matthew:27:3 @ Then he who had betrayed Him, seeing that He was condemned, sorrowing, Judas returned the thirty pieces of silver again to the chief priests and elders,

mkjv@Matthew:27:5 @ And he threw the pieces of silver down in the temple and departed. And he went and hanged himself.

mkjv@Matthew:27:6 @ And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, because it is [the] price of blood.

mkjv@Matthew:27:8 @ Therefore that field was called, The Field of Blood, to this day.

mkjv@Matthew:27:9 @ Then that which was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of Him who had been priced, whom they of the children of Israel valued,

mkjv@Matthew:27:11 @ And Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor asked Him, saying, Are you the king of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, You say [it].

mkjv@Matthew:27:18 @ For he knew they had delivered Him because of envy.

mkjv@Matthew:27:19 @ But as he was sitting down on the judgment seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have nothing to do with that just man, for today because of Him I have suffered many things in a dream.

mkjv@Matthew:27:21 @ The governor answered and said to them, Which of the two do you desire that I release [to] you? They said, Barabbas.

mkjv@Matthew:27:24 @ But when Pilate saw that it gained nothing, but rather [that] a tumult was made, he took water and washed [his] hands before the crowd, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person. You see to it.

mkjv@Matthew:27:27 @ Then taking Jesus into the praetorium, the soldiers of the governor gathered the cohort against Him.

mkjv@Matthew:27:29 @ And plaiting a crown of thorns, they put [it] on His head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

mkjv@Matthew:27:31 @ And after they had mocked Him, they took the robe off of Him and put His own clothing on Him and led Him away to crucify [Him].

mkjv@Matthew:27:32 @ And going out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. They forced this one to carry His cross.

mkjv@Matthew:27:33 @ And coming to a place called Golgotha, which is called, Place of a Skull,

mkjv@Matthew:27:37 @ And they put up over His head His accusation, written, THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mkjv@Matthew:27:38 @ Then two thieves were crucified with Him, one off [the] right, one off [the] left.

mkjv@Matthew:27:40 @ and saying, [You] destroying the temple and building [it] in three days, save yourself. If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross.

mkjv@Matthew:27:42 @ He saved others, but he cannot save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

mkjv@Matthew:27:43 @ He trusted in God, let Him deliver him now, if He will have him. (For He said, I am [the] Son of God.)

mkjv@Matthew:27:47 @ Some of those who stood there, when they heard, said, This one calls for Elijah.

mkjv@Matthew:27:48 @ And immediately one of them ran and took a sponge and filled it with vinegar, and he put [it] on a reed and gave it to Him to drink.

mkjv@Matthew:27:51 @ And, behold! The veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. And the earth quaked, and the rocks were sheared,

mkjv@Matthew:27:52 @ and the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep arose,

mkjv@Matthew:27:53 @ and coming out of the tomb after His resurrection [they] went into the holy city and appeared to many.

mkjv@Matthew:27:54 @ But the centurion and those guarding Jesus, seeing the earthquake, and the things that took place, [they] feared greatly, saying, Truly this One was Son of God.

mkjv@Matthew:27:55 @ And many of the women were there, watching from a distance, [those] who had followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering to Him, watching from a distance;

mkjv@Matthew:27:56 @ among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedee's children.

mkjv@Matthew:27:57 @ When the evening had come, a rich man of Arimathea, named Joseph, came, who also himself was Jesus' disciple.

mkjv@Matthew:27:58 @ He went to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

mkjv@Matthew:27:60 @ and laid it in his new tomb, which he had cut out of the rock. And he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb and departed.

mkjv@Matthew:28:1 @ But late in the week, at the dawning into the first [day] of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb.

mkjv@Matthew:28:2 @ And behold, a great earthquake occurred! For coming down from Heaven, and coming up, an angel of [the] Lord rolled back the stone from the door and [was] sitting on it.

mkjv@Matthew:28:4 @ And the keepers shook for fear of him and became like dead [men].

mkjv@Matthew:28:11 @ And as they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city and declared all the things that were done to the chief priests.

mkjv@Matthew:28:19 @ Therefore go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Matthew:28:20 @ teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen.

mkjv@Mark:1:1 @ The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, [the] Son of God:

mkjv@Mark:1:3 @ The voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of [the] Lord, make His paths straight.

mkjv@Mark:1:4 @ John came baptizing in the wilderness and proclaiming the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

mkjv@Mark:1:5 @ And all the land of Judea, and those of Jerusalem, went out to him and were all baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.

mkjv@Mark:1:7 @ And he proclaimed, saying, There is One coming after me who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down to loosen.

mkjv@Mark:1:9 @ And it happened in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

mkjv@Mark:1:10 @ And immediately coming up out of the water, He saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:14 @ And after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom of God,

mkjv@Mark:1:15 @ and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God draws near. Repent, and believe the gospel.

mkjv@Mark:1:16 @ And walking along beside the sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.

mkjv@Mark:1:17 @ And Jesus said to them, Come after Me and I will make you fishers of men.

mkjv@Mark:1:19 @ And when He going farther from there a little, He saw James [the son] of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.

mkjv@Mark:1:24 @ saying, What [is] to us and to You, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know You, who You are, the Holy One of God.

mkjv@Mark:1:25 @ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be quiet, and come out of him.

mkjv@Mark:1:26 @ And the unclean spirit, convulsing him, and crying with a loud voice, he came out of him.

mkjv@Mark:1:29 @ And immediately after they had come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

mkjv@Mark:1:30 @ But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and at once they told Him about her.

mkjv@Mark:1:34 @ And He healed many who were sick of different diseases, and cast out many demons. And He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.

mkjv@Mark:1:44 @ and He said to him, See that you say nothing to anyone. But go and show yourself to the priest, and offer those things which Moses commanded for your cleansing, for a testimony to them.

mkjv@Mark:2:4 @ When they could not come near to Him because of the crowd, they unroofed the roof where He was. And digging through, they let down the cot on which the paralytic was lying.

mkjv@Mark:2:6 @ But some of the scribes were sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,

mkjv@Mark:2:10 @ But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority upon earth to forgive sins, He said to the paralytic,

mkjv@Mark:2:14 @ And as He passed on, He saw Levi [the son] of Alpheus sitting at the tax-office. And [He] said to him, Follow Me. And he arose and followed Him.

mkjv@Mark:2:17 @ When Jesus heard, He said to them, They who are strong have no need of a physician, but the ones who have illness. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

mkjv@Mark:2:18 @ The disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting. And they came and said to Him, Why do John's disciples and those of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?

mkjv@Mark:2:19 @ And Jesus said to them, Can the sons of the bridechamber fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast.

mkjv@Mark:2:21 @ And no one sews a patch of new cloth on an old garment, else [it] takes away from its fullness, the new [from] the old, and a worse tear occurs.

mkjv@Mark:2:23 @ And it happened that He went through the grainfields on the sabbath day. And as they walked His disciples began to pluck the heads [of grain].

mkjv@Mark:2:26 @ How he went into the house of God in [the days of] Abiathar the high priest and ate the showbread, which it is not lawful to eat, except for the priests, and also gave to those with him?

mkjv@Mark:2:28 @ Therefore the Son of man is also Lord of the sabbath.

mkjv@Mark:3:5 @ And looking around on them with anger, being grieved because of the hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, Stretch out your hand! And he stretched [it] out. And his hand was restored whole, like the other.

mkjv@Mark:3:9 @ And He spoke to His disciples, so that a small boat should stay near to Him, because of the crowd, lest they should press on Him.

mkjv@Mark:3:11 @ And unclean spirits, when they saw Him, [they] fell down before Him and cried, saying, You are the Son of God!

mkjv@Mark:3:17 @ And He put on James [the son] of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, [the] names Boanerges, which is, the Sons of Thunder.

mkjv@Mark:3:18 @ And [He appointed] Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James [the son] of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Canaanite,

mkjv@Mark:3:21 @ And hearing, those with Him went out to take hold [of] Him; for they said, He is insane.

mkjv@Mark:3:22 @ And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, He has Beelzebub, and He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons.

mkjv@Mark:3:28 @ Truly I say to you, all sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and blasphemies with which they shall blaspheme.

mkjv@Mark:3:35 @ For whoever does the will of God, the same is My brother and My sister and My mother.

mkjv@Mark:4:4 @ And as he sowed, it happened that indeed some fell by the wayside, and the fowls of the air came and ate it up.

mkjv@Mark:4:5 @ And another fell on stony ground, where it did not have much earth. And it sprang up at once, due to not having deepness of earth.

mkjv@Mark:4:11 @ And He said to them, To you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God. But to those outside, all [these] things are [given] in parables

mkjv@Mark:4:17 @ But they have no root in themselves, but are temporary. Afterward when affliction or persecution arises for the Word's sake, they are immediately offended.

mkjv@Mark:4:19 @ and the cares of this world, and the deceit of riches, and the lust about other things entering in, choke the Word, and it becomes unfruitful.

mkjv@Mark:4:26 @ And He said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

mkjv@Mark:4:28 @ For the earth brings out fruit of itself, first the blade, then the ear, after that the full grain in the ear.

mkjv@Mark:4:30 @ And He said, to what shall we compare the kingdom of God? Or by what parable shall we compare it?

mkjv@Mark:4:31 @ [It is] like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that are in the earth.

mkjv@Mark:4:32 @ But when it has been sown, it grows up and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out great branches, so as to enable the birds of the air to roost under its shade.

mkjv@Mark:4:38 @ And He was in the stern of the boat, asleep on a headrest. And they awakened Him and said to Him, Master, do You not care that we perish?

mkjv@Mark:4:41 @ And they feared exceedingly and said to one another, What kind of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?

mkjv@Mark:5:1 @ And they came over to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarenes.

mkjv@Mark:5:2 @ And when He had come out of the boat, immediately a man with unclean spirits met Him out of the tombs,

mkjv@Mark:5:4 @ because he had often been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart by him, and the fetters broken in pieces. Nor could anyone subdue him.

mkjv@Mark:5:6 @ And when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshiped Him,

mkjv@Mark:5:7 @ and cried with a loud voice, and said, What [is] to me and to You, Jesus, son of the Most High God? I adjure You by God not to torment me.

mkjv@Mark:5:8 @ For He said to him, Come out of the man, unclean spirit!

mkjv@Mark:5:11 @ And a great herd of pigs was feeding near the mountains.

mkjv@Mark:5:22 @ And, behold, one of the synagogue rulers came, Jairus by name. And when he saw Him, [he] fell at His feet.

mkjv@Mark:5:23 @ And he begged Him greatly, saying, My little daughter lies at the point of death. Come, lay Your hands on her, so that she may be healed, and she shall live.

mkjv@Mark:5:25 @ And a certain woman who had had an issue of blood twelve years,

mkjv@Mark:5:26 @ and had suffered many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and had not been bettered any, but rather came to worse,

mkjv@Mark:5:29 @ And instantly the fountain of her blood dried up. And she felt in [her] body that she was healed of that plague.

mkjv@Mark:5:30 @ And knowing instantly within Himself that power had gone out of Him, Jesus turned Himself around in the press and said, Who touched My clothes?

mkjv@Mark:5:37 @ And He allowed no one to follow Him, except Peter and James and John, the brother of James.

mkjv@Mark:5:40 @ And they laughed at Him. But when He had put [them] all out, He took the father and the mother of the child, and those with Him, and went in where the child was lying.

mkjv@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at Him.

mkjv@Mark:6:5 @ And He could do no work of power there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick ones, He healed [them].

mkjv@Mark:6:6 @ And He marveled because of their unbelief. And He went around the villages, in [a] circuit, teaching.

mkjv@Mark:6:11 @ And whoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when you depart from there, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Truly I say to you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

mkjv@Mark:6:14 @ And king Herod heard [of Him] (for His name had become well-known,) and he said that John the Baptist had been raised from the dead, and therefore mighty works operate in him.

mkjv@Mark:6:15 @ Others said [that it was] Elijah. And others said that he is a prophet, or as one of the prophets.

mkjv@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent out and laid hold on John and had bound him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife. For he had married her,

mkjv@Mark:6:21 @ And a convenient day came, when Herod made a supper to great men on his birthday, and to the chiliarchs, and to the first ones of Galilee.

mkjv@Mark:6:22 @ And when the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced and pleased Herod, and those who reclined with [him], the king said to the girl, Ask me whatever you desire from me, and I will give [it] to you.

mkjv@Mark:6:23 @ And he swore to her, Whatever you shall ask from me, I will give [it] to you, to the half of my kingdom.

mkjv@Mark:6:24 @ And she went out and said to her mother, What shall I ask? And she said, The head of John the Baptist.

mkjv@Mark:6:25 @ And immediately going in with haste to the king, she asked, saying, I desire that you give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter.

mkjv@Mark:6:26 @ And becoming deeply grieved, the king, because of his oath, and those reclining together, he did not wish to reject her.

mkjv@Mark:6:33 @ And the crowds saw them leaving, and many knew Him. And [they] ran together on foot there, out of the cities. And they went before them and came together to Him.

mkjv@Mark:6:37 @ He answered and said to them, You give them [food] to eat. And they said to Him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii of loaves and give them to eat?

mkjv@Mark:6:43 @ And they took up twelve hand baskets full [of] fragments, also from the fish.

mkjv@Mark:6:46 @ And taking leave [of] them, He went away to the mountain to pray.

mkjv@Mark:6:47 @ And when evening had come, the boat was in [the] middle of the sea, and He was alone on the land.

mkjv@Mark:6:48 @ And He saw them toiling in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them. And about the fourth watch of the night He came toward them walking on the sea, and would have passed by them.

mkjv@Mark:6:50 @ For they all saw Him and were troubled. And immediately He talked with them, and said, Be of good cheer. I AM! Do not be afraid.

mkjv@Mark:6:51 @ And He went up into the boat to them. And the wind was cut off. And they were very much amazed within themselves beyond measure, and marveled.

mkjv@Mark:6:52 @ For they did not understand [the miracle] of the loaves, for their hearts were hardened.

mkjv@Mark:6:53 @ And crossing over, they came into the land of Gennesaret and drew to the shore.

mkjv@Mark:6:54 @ And when they had come out of the boat, at once knowing Him,

mkjv@Mark:6:56 @ And wherever He entered, into villages or cities or country, they laid the sick in the streets and begged Him if only they might touch but the fringe of His garment. And as many as touched Him were made whole.

mkjv@Mark:7:1 @ And the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem.

mkjv@Mark:7:2 @ And when they saw some of His disciples eating loaves with unclean hands, that is with unwashed hands, they found fault.

mkjv@Mark:7:3 @ For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they immerse [their] hands with the fist, holding the tradition of the elders.

mkjv@Mark:7:4 @ And coming from the market, they do not eat without immersing, and there are many other things which they have received to hold, the dippings of cups and pots, and of copper vessels, and of tables.

mkjv@Mark:7:5 @ Then the Pharisees and scribes asked Him, Why do your disciples not walk according to the tradition of the elders, but eat loaves with unwashed hands?

mkjv@Mark:7:6 @ But He answered and said to them, Well has Isaiah prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honors Me with [their] lips, but their heart is far from Me.

mkjv@Mark:7:7 @ However, they worship Me in vain, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men.

mkjv@Mark:7:8 @ For laying aside the commandment of God, you hold the tradition of men, the dippings of pots and cups. And many other such things you do.

mkjv@Mark:7:9 @ And He said to them, Do you do well to set aside the commandment of God, so that you may keep your own tradition?

mkjv@Mark:7:11 @ But you say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, Corban! (that is, A gift [to God], whatever you may profit by me)

mkjv@Mark:7:13 @ making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have delivered. And you do many such things.

mkjv@Mark:7:14 @ And calling near all the crowd, He said to them, Listen to Me, every one of you, and understand.

mkjv@Mark:7:15 @ There is nothing from outside a man which entering into him can defile [him]. But the things which come out of him, those are the ones that defile the man.

mkjv@Mark:7:20 @ And He said, That which comes out of the man is what defiles the man.

mkjv@Mark:7:21 @ For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders,

mkjv@Mark:7:24 @ And He arose from there and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon. And He entered into a house and desired no one to know [it]. But He could not be hidden.

mkjv@Mark:7:25 @ For a woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of Him and came and fell at His feet.

mkjv@Mark:7:26 @ The woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by race. And she begged Him that He would cast the demon out of her daughter.

mkjv@Mark:7:28 @ And she answered and said to Him, Yes, Lord, yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

mkjv@Mark:7:29 @ And He said to her, For this saying go, the demon has gone out of your daughter.

mkjv@Mark:7:31 @ And again, departing from the coasts of Tyre and Sidon, He came to the Sea of Galilee, in the midst of the borders of the Decapolis.

mkjv@Mark:7:35 @ And instantly his ears were opened and the bond of his tongue was loosened, and he spoke plainly.

mkjv@Mark:8:3 @ And if I send them away fasting to their own houses, they will faint in the way. For many of them come from afar.

mkjv@Mark:8:8 @ So they ate and were filled. And [they] took up over and above seven lunch baskets [of] fragments.

mkjv@Mark:8:10 @ And immediately He entered into a boat with His disciples and came into the region of Dalmanutha.

mkjv@Mark:8:15 @ And He charged them, saying, Take heed! Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and [of] the leaven of Herod.

mkjv@Mark:8:19 @ When I broke the five loaves among five thousand, how many hand baskets full of fragments did you take up? They said to Him, Twelve.

mkjv@Mark:8:20 @ And when the seven among four thousand, how many lunch baskets full of fragments did you take up? And they said, Seven.

mkjv@Mark:8:23 @ And He took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the town. And when He had spat on his eyes and had put [His] hands on him, He asked Him if he saw anything.

mkjv@Mark:8:27 @ And Jesus and His disciples went out into the towns of Caesarea Philippi. And in the way He asked His disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?

mkjv@Mark:8:28 @ And they answered, John the Baptist. But others [say] Elijah, and others say one of the prophets.

mkjv@Mark:8:30 @ And He charged them that they should tell no one of Him.

mkjv@Mark:8:31 @ And He began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.

mkjv@Mark:8:33 @ But when He had turned around and looked on His disciples, He rebuked Peter, saying, Go behind Me, Satan! For you do not mind the things of God, but of the things of men.

mkjv@Mark:8:36 @ For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?

mkjv@Mark:8:38 @ Therefore whoever shall be ashamed of Me and of My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of man shall also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.

mkjv@Mark:9:1 @ And He said to them, Truly I say to you that there are some of those who stand here who shall not taste of death until they see the kingdom of God come with power.

mkjv@Mark:9:7 @ And there was a cloud that overshadowed them. And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is My beloved Son. Hear Him.

mkjv@Mark:9:9 @ And as they came down from the mountain, He commanded them that they should tell no one the things that they had seen until the Son of man had risen from [the] dead.

mkjv@Mark:9:12 @ And He answered and told them, Elijah truly does come first and restores all things. And how has it been written of the Son of man that He should suffer many things and be despised?

mkjv@Mark:9:13 @ But I say to you that Elijah has indeed come, and they have done to him whatever they desired, as it is written of him.

mkjv@Mark:9:17 @ And one of the crowd answered and said, Teacher, I have brought my son who has a dumb spirit to You.

mkjv@Mark:9:22 @ And oftentimes it has cast him into the fire and into the waters to destroy him. But if You can do anything, have compassion on us and help us.

mkjv@Mark:9:24 @ And immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, Lord, I believe. Help my unbelief.

mkjv@Mark:9:25 @ And seeing that a crowd is running together, Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Dumb and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter no more into him!

mkjv@Mark:9:26 @ And [the spirit] cried out, throwing him into convulsions, and came out of him. And he was like one dead, so that many said, He is dead.

mkjv@Mark:9:31 @ For He taught His disciples and said to them, The Son of man is delivered into [the] hands of men, and they shall kill him. And after He is killed, He shall rise the third day.

mkjv@Mark:9:35 @ And He sat down and called the Twelve and said to them, If anyone desires to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.

mkjv@Mark:9:37 @ Whoever receives one of such children on My name receives Me. And whoever receives Me does not [only] receives Me, but Him who sent Me.

mkjv@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, Do not forbid him. For there is no one who shall do a work of power in My name who can lightly speak evil of Me.

mkjv@Mark:9:41 @ For whoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you [belong] to Christ, truly I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.

mkjv@Mark:9:42 @ And whoever shall offend one of [these] little ones who believe in Me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged around his neck and he were cast into the sea.

mkjv@Mark:9:43 @ And if your hand offends you, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life maimed than to have two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched

mkjv@Mark:9:45 @ And if your foot offends you, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life lame than to have two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched

mkjv@Mark:9:47 @ And if your eye offends you, pluck it out. It is better for you to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye than to have two eyes to be cast into hell fire

mkjv@Mark:10:1 @ And He arose from there. And He came into the borders of Judea by the other side of the Jordan. And again a crowd came together to Him. And as was His custom, He taught them again.

mkjv@Mark:10:4 @ And they said, Moses allowed a bill of divorce to be written, and to put [her] away.

mkjv@Mark:10:5 @ And Jesus answered and said to them, He wrote you this precept because of the hardness of your hearts.

mkjv@Mark:10:6 @ But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.

mkjv@Mark:10:8 @ And the two of them shall be one flesh. So then they are no longer two, but one flesh.

mkjv@Mark:10:14 @ But when Jesus saw, He was much displeased and said to them, Allow the little children to come to Me and do not hinder [them]. For of such is the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Mark:10:15 @ Truly I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter into it.

mkjv@Mark:10:23 @ And Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, How hardly those having riches will enter into the kingdom of God!

mkjv@Mark:10:24 @ And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answering again said to them, Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

mkjv@Mark:10:25 @ It is easier [for] a camel to go through the eye of a needle than [for] a rich one to enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Mark:10:33 @ [saying], Behold, we go up to Jerusalem. And the Son of man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes. And they will condemn Him to death and will deliver Him to the nations.

mkjv@Mark:10:35 @ And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to Him, saying, Master, we desire that You should do for us whatever we shall ask.

mkjv@Mark:10:38 @ But Jesus said to them, You do not know what you ask. Can you drink of the cup that I drink of, and be baptized [with] the baptism that I am baptized [with]?

mkjv@Mark:10:39 @ And they said to Him, We can. And Jesus said to them, You shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of, and [with] the baptism that I am baptized [with] you shall be baptized.

mkjv@Mark:10:44 @ And whoever of you desires to become first, [he] shall be servant of all.

mkjv@Mark:10:45 @ For even the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life [as] a ransom for many.

mkjv@Mark:10:46 @ And they came to Jericho. And as He with His disciples and a large crowd went out of Jericho, blind Bartimeus, the son of Timeus, was sitting by the side of the highway, begging.

mkjv@Mark:10:47 @ And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, Jesus, son of David, have mercy on me!

mkjv@Mark:10:48 @ And many warned him that he should be quiet, but he cried a great deal more, Son of David, have mercy on me!

mkjv@Mark:10:49 @ And Jesus stood still and commanded him to be called. And they called the blind [man], saying to him, Be of good comfort; rise up, He is calling you.

mkjv@Mark:11:1 @ And when they drew near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the Mount of Olives, He sent out two of His disciples.

mkjv@Mark:11:2 @ And He said to them, Go into the village over across from you. And as soon as you have entered into it, you will find a colt tied, on which no one of men has ever sat. Untie it and bring [it].

mkjv@Mark:11:3 @ And if anyone says to you, Why do you do this? Say that the Lord has need of him, and immediately he will send him here.

mkjv@Mark:11:5 @ And certain of those who stood there said to them, What are you doing, untying the colt?

mkjv@Mark:11:8 @ And many spread their garments in the way, and others cut down branches off the trees and scattered [them] in the way.

mkjv@Mark:11:9 @ And those going before, and those following, cried out, saying, Hosanna! Blessed [is] He who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord!

mkjv@Mark:11:10 @ Blessed [is] the kingdom of our father David, who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord! Hosanna in the highest!

mkjv@Mark:11:12 @ And on the next day, they going out of Bethany, He was hungry.

mkjv@Mark:11:13 @ And seeing a fig-tree with leaves afar off, He went [to it], if perhaps He might find anything on it. And when He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not [the] season of figs.

mkjv@Mark:11:14 @ And Jesus answered and said to it, No one shall eat fruit of you forever. And His disciples heard.

mkjv@Mark:11:15 @ And they came to Jerusalem. And entering into the temple, Jesus began to cast out those who bought and sold in the temple. And He overthrew the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

mkjv@Mark:11:17 @ And [He] taught, saying to them, Is it not written, My house shall be called the house of prayer for all nations? But you have made it a den of thieves.

mkjv@Mark:11:19 @ And when evening came, He went out of the city.

mkjv@Mark:11:22 @ And answering Jesus said to them, Have faith of God.

mkjv@Mark:11:29 @ And Jesus answered and said to them, I will also ask of you one thing, and answer Me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things.

mkjv@Mark:11:30 @ The baptism of John, was [it] from Heaven, or from men? Answer Me.

mkjv@Mark:12:2 @ And at the season he sent a servant to the vinedressers, so that he might receive from the vinedressers the fruit of the vineyard.

mkjv@Mark:12:6 @ Therefore, still having one son, his own beloved, he also sent him to them last of all, saying, They will respect my son.

mkjv@Mark:12:8 @ And they took him and killed [him] and cast [him] out of the vineyard.

mkjv@Mark:12:9 @ Therefore what will the lord of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the vinedressers and will give the vineyard to others.

mkjv@Mark:12:10 @ And have you not read this scripture The] Stone which the builders rejected has become the Head of [the] corner:

mkjv@Mark:12:13 @ And they sent certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to Him, to catch Him in [His] words.

mkjv@Mark:12:14 @ And coming, they said to Him, Teacher, we know that you are true and you care about no one. For you do not look to [the] face of men, but teach the way of God [in] truth. Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not?

mkjv@Mark:12:22 @ And the seven had her, and left no seed. Last of all the woman also died.

mkjv@Mark:12:24 @ And answering Jesus said to them, Do you not err because of this, not knowing Scriptures, nor the power of God?

mkjv@Mark:12:26 @ And as regards the dead, that they rise, have you not read in the book of Moses how God spoke to him in the Bush, saying, I [am] the God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob?

mkjv@Mark:12:27 @ He is not the God of [the] dead, but the God of [the] living. Therefore you greatly err.

mkjv@Mark:12:28 @ And coming up one of the scribes heard them reasoning, knowing that He had answered them well, he asked Him, Which is [the] first commandment of all?

mkjv@Mark:12:29 @ And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel, [the] Lord our God is one Lord;

mkjv@Mark:12:33 @ And to love Him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love the neighbor as himself, is more than all the burnt offerings and sacrifices.

mkjv@Mark:12:34 @ And seeing that he had answered intelligently, Jesus said to him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And no one dared to question Him any more.

mkjv@Mark:12:35 @ And answering, teaching in the temple, Jesus said, How do the scribes say that Christ is the Son of David?

mkjv@Mark:12:38 @ And He said to them in His teaching, Beware of the scribes, who love to walk about in robes, and [love] greetings in the markets,

mkjv@Mark:12:44 @ For all cast in from their abundance. But she, out of her poverty, has cast [in] all that she had, all her livelihood.

mkjv@Mark:13:1 @ And as He went out of the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, Master, see! What stones and what buildings!

mkjv@Mark:13:3 @ And [as] He sat on the Mount of Olives, across from the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked Him privately,

mkjv@Mark:13:7 @ And when you shall hear [of] wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled. For it must happen, but the end [shall] not [be] yet.

mkjv@Mark:13:8 @ For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there shall be earthquakes in different places, and there shall be famines and troubles. These things [are] the beginnings of sorrows.

mkjv@Mark:13:14 @ But when you see the abomination of desolation, that spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not (let him who reads understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

mkjv@Mark:13:15 @ And let him who is on the housetop not go down into the house, nor enter to take anything out of his house.

mkjv@Mark:13:19 @ For [in] those days shall be affliction, such as has not been from [the] beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never [shall] be.

mkjv@Mark:13:25 @ and the stars of Heaven shall fall, and the powers in the heavens shall be shaken.

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

mkjv@Mark:13:27 @ And then He shall send His angels and shall gather His elect from the four winds, from [the] end of [the] earth to [the] end of heaven.

mkjv@Mark:13:28 @ And learn the parable of the fig-tree: when her branch is still tender and puts out leaves, you know that summer is near.

mkjv@Mark:13:32 @ But of that day and hour no one knows, no, not the angels in Heaven, nor the Son, but the Father.

mkjv@Mark:13:35 @ Then you watch, for you do not know when the lord of the house is coming, [at] evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrowing, or early;

mkjv@Mark:14:1 @ And after two days it was the Passover and [the Feast of] Unleavened [Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take Him by craft and kill [Him.

mkjv@Mark:14:2 @ But they said, Not during the Feast, lest there be an uproar of the people.

mkjv@Mark:14:3 @ And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as He reclined, a woman came with an alabaster vial of pure, costly ointment of spikenard. And she broke the vial and poured [it] on His head.

mkjv@Mark:14:4 @ And some were indignant to themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

mkjv@Mark:14:9 @ Truly I say to you, Wherever this gospel shall be proclaimed in all the world, [this] also that she has done will be spoken of for a memorial of her.

mkjv@Mark:14:10 @ And Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests in order to betray Him to them.

mkjv@Mark:14:12 @ And the first day of Unleavened [Bread], when they killed the passover, His disciples said to Him, Where do You desire that we go and prepare that You may eat the passover?

mkjv@Mark:14:13 @ And He sent out two of His disciples and said to them, Go into the city, and there you shall meet a man bearing a pitcher of water. Follow him.

mkjv@Mark:14:18 @ And as they reclined and ate, Jesus said, Truly I say to you, One of you will betray Me, the [one] eating with Me.

mkjv@Mark:14:20 @ And answering He said to them, [It is] one of the Twelve, the [one] dipping with Me in the dish.

mkjv@Mark:14:21 @ The Son of man indeed goes, as it has been written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for that man if he had never been born.

mkjv@Mark:14:23 @ And taking the cup, giving thanks, He gave to them. And they all drank out of it.

mkjv@Mark:14:24 @ And He said to them, This is My blood of the New Covenant, which is poured out for many.

mkjv@Mark:14:25 @ Truly I say to you, I will no more drink of the fruit of the vine until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Mark:14:26 @ And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

mkjv@Mark:14:27 @ And Jesus said to them, All of you will be offended because of Me this night. For it is written, I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.

mkjv@Mark:14:29 @ But Peter said to Him, Although all shall be offended, yet I [will] not.

mkjv@Mark:14:41 @ And He came the third time and said to them, Sleep on now and take [your] rest. It is enough, the hour has come. Behold, the Son of man has been betrayed into the hands of sinners.

mkjv@Mark:14:43 @ And immediately, while He still spoke, Judas, being one of the Twelve, came, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

mkjv@Mark:14:47 @ And one of those standing by, drawing a sword, struck a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

mkjv@Mark:14:54 @ And Peter followed Him from a distance to the inside of the court of the high priest. And he sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire.

mkjv@Mark:14:61 @ But He was silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, Are you the Christ, the son of the Blessed?

mkjv@Mark:14:62 @ And Jesus said, I AM! And you will see the Son of man sitting on the right [hand] of power and coming in the clouds of the heaven.

mkjv@Mark:14:63 @ Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, What further need do we have of witnesses?

mkjv@Mark:14:64 @ You have heard the blasphemy; what do you think? And they all condemned Him to be guilty of death.

mkjv@Mark:14:65 @ And some began to spit on Him, and to cover His face and to beat Him, and to say to Him, Prophesy! And the under-officers struck Him with slaps.

mkjv@Mark:14:66 @ And as Peter was below in the palace, one of the servant women of the high priest came.

mkjv@Mark:14:69 @ And a servant woman saw him again and began to say to those who stood by, This [one] is of them.

mkjv@Mark:14:70 @ And he denied it again. And a little after, those who stood by said again to Peter, Surely you are [one] of them, for you are a Galilean, and your speech agrees.

mkjv@Mark:14:71 @ But he began to curse and to swear, [saying], I do not know this man of whom you speak.

mkjv@Mark:15:2 @ And Pilate asked Him, Are you the king of the Jews? And answering He said to him, You say [it].

mkjv@Mark:15:3 @ And the chief priests accused Him [of] many things, but He answered nothing.

mkjv@Mark:15:9 @ But Pilate answered them, saying, Do you desire that I release to you the King of the Jews?

mkjv@Mark:15:10 @ For he knew that the chief priests had delivered Him because of envy.

mkjv@Mark:15:12 @ And Pilate answered and said again to them, What then do you desire that I should do [to him] whom you call the King of the Jews?

mkjv@Mark:15:17 @ And they clothed Him with purple and plaited a crown of thorns and put it around His [head].

mkjv@Mark:15:18 @ And they began to salute Him, Hail, King of the Jews!

mkjv@Mark:15:20 @ And when they had mocked Him, they took the purple off Him and put His own clothes on Him and led Him out to crucify Him.

mkjv@Mark:15:21 @ And they made one who was passing by, Simon a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear His cross.

mkjv@Mark:15:22 @ And they brought Him to Golgotha Place (which translated is, Place of a Skull).

mkjv@Mark:15:26 @ And the inscription of His accusation was written over [Him], THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mkjv@Mark:15:27 @ And with Him they crucified two thieves, the one off [the] right, and one off [the] left.

mkjv@Mark:15:32 @ Let Christ the King of Israel now come down from the cross, so that we may see and believe. And they who were crucified with Him insulted Him.

mkjv@Mark:15:35 @ And hearing, some of those standing by said, Behold, he calls Elijah.

mkjv@Mark:15:36 @ And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar and put [it] on a reed and gave [it] to him to drink. [But they said], Let alone, let us see if Elijah comes to take him down.

mkjv@Mark:15:38 @ And the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom.

mkjv@Mark:15:39 @ And when the centurion, who stood across from him, saw that He cried out so, [and] expired, he said, Truly this man was Son of God.

mkjv@Mark:15:40 @ And also women were watching from a distance, among whom also was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less, and of Joses, and Salome,

mkjv@Mark:15:43 @ Joseph of Arimathea, an honorable counsellor, who also waited for the kingdom of God, came and went in boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus.

mkjv@Mark:15:46 @ And he bought a linen cloth, and took Him down, and wrapped [Him] in the linen, and laid Him in a tomb which was cut out of a rock, and rolled a stone to the door of the tomb.

mkjv@Mark:15:47 @ And Mary Magdalene and Mary [the mother] of Joses saw where He was laid.

mkjv@Mark:16:1 @ And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene and Mary, [the mother] of James and Salome, had bought sweet spices so that they might come and anoint Him.

mkjv@Mark:16:2 @ And very early in the morning, the first [day] of the week, they came upon the tomb, the sun having risen.

mkjv@Mark:16:3 @ And they said among themselves, Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?

mkjv@Mark:16:6 @ And he said to them, Do not be frightened. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen, He is not here. Behold the place where they laid Him.

mkjv@Mark:16:9 @ And when [Jesus] had risen early the first [day] of the Sabbath, He appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom He had cast seven demons.

mkjv@Mark:16:12 @ After that He appeared in another form to two of them, walking [and] going into the country.

mkjv@Mark:16:14 @ Afterward He appeared to the Eleven as they reclined. And [He] reproached their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they did not believe those who had seen Him after He had risen.

mkjv@Mark:16:19 @ Then indeed, after speaking to them, the Lord was taken up into Heaven, and sat on [the] right hand of God.

mkjv@Luke:1:2 @ even as those who from [the] beginning delivered to us, becoming eye-witnesses and ministers of the word,

mkjv@Luke:1:4 @ so that you might know the certainty of those things in which you have been instructed.

mkjv@Luke:1:5 @ In the days of Herod, the king of Judea, there was a certain priest named Zacharias, of [the] course of Abijah. And his wife [was] of the daughters of Aaron, and her name [was] Elizabeth.

mkjv@Luke:1:6 @ And they were both righteous before God, walking blameless in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord.

mkjv@Luke:1:8 @ And it happened in his serving in the order of his course, before God,

mkjv@Luke:1:9 @ according to the custom of the priests, it was his lot to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.

mkjv@Luke:1:10 @ And all the multitude of the people were praying outside at the time of incense.

mkjv@Luke:1:11 @ And an angel [of the] Lord appeared to him as he was standing on [the] right of the altar of incense.

mkjv@Luke:1:15 @ For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall neither drink wine nor strong drink. And he shall be filled with [the] Holy Spirit, even from his mother's womb.

mkjv@Luke:1:16 @ And he shall turn many of the sons of Israel to [the] Lord their God.

mkjv@Luke:1:17 @ And he shall go before Him in [the] spirit and power of Elijah, to turn [the] hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to [the] wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:1:23 @ And as soon as the days of his service were accomplished, he departed to his own house.

mkjv@Luke:1:26 @ And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

mkjv@Luke:1:27 @ to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of [the] house of David. And the virgin's name [was] Mary.

mkjv@Luke:1:29 @ And when she saw [him], she was troubled at his saying, and considered what kind of greeting this might be.

mkjv@Luke:1:32 @ He shall be great and shall be called the Son of [the] Highest. And the Lord God shall give Him the throne of His father David.

mkjv@Luke:1:33 @ And He shall reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of His kingdom there shall be no end.

mkjv@Luke:1:35 @ And the angel answered and said to her, The Holy Spirit shall come on you, and [the] power of [the] Highest shall overshadow you. Therefore also that Holy [One] which will be born of you shall be called Son of God.

mkjv@Luke:1:38 @ And Mary said, Behold the servant of [the] Lord. Let it be to me according to your word. And the angel departed from her.

mkjv@Luke:1:39 @ And Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, to a city of Judah.

mkjv@Luke:1:40 @ And [she] entered into the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

mkjv@Luke:1:41 @ And it happened as Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Luke:1:42 @ and cried out with a loud voice and said, Blessed [are] you among women, and blessed [is] the fruit of your womb.

mkjv@Luke:1:43 @ And from where [is] this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

mkjv@Luke:1:44 @ For lo, as the voice of your greeting sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.

mkjv@Luke:1:45 @ And blessed [is] she who believes, for there shall be a perfecting of those things which were told her from [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:1:48 @ For He looked on the humiliation of His slave woman. For, behold, from now on all generations shall count me blessed.

mkjv@Luke:1:51 @ He has worked power with His arm, He has scattered the proud in [the] imagination of their heart.

mkjv@Luke:1:54 @ He has helped His servant Israel, in remembrance of [His] mercy,

mkjv@Luke:1:61 @ And they said to her, There is none of your kindred that is called by this name.

mkjv@Luke:1:65 @ And fear came on all who lived all around them. And all these things were talked about throughout all the hill country of Judea.

mkjv@Luke:1:66 @ And all those who heard laid [them] up in their hearts, saying, What kind of child shall this be! And the hand of [the] Lord was with him.

mkjv@Luke:1:68 @ Blessed [is the] Lord, the God of Israel, for He has visited and redeemed His people

mkjv@Luke:1:69 @ and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of His servant David,

mkjv@Luke:1:70 @ as He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets from eternity;

mkjv@Luke:1:71 @ that we should be saved from our enemies and from [the] hand of all who hate us,

mkjv@Luke:1:74 @ that He would grant to us, [that we], being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, might serve Him without fear

mkjv@Luke:1:75 @ in holiness and righteousness before Him all the days of our life.

mkjv@Luke:1:76 @ And you, child, will be called the prophet of [the] Highest, for you shall go before [the] face of [the] Lord to prepare His ways,

mkjv@Luke:1:77 @ to give knowledge of salvation to His people by the remission of their sins,

mkjv@Luke:1:78 @ through [the] tender mercy of our God; by which [the] Dayspring from on high has visited us,

mkjv@Luke:1:79 @ to give light to those who sit in darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to guide our feet into [the] way of peace.

mkjv@Luke:1:80 @ And the child grew and became strong in spirit and was in the deserts until [the] day of his showing to Israel.

mkjv@Luke:2:2 @ (This taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

mkjv@Luke:2:4 @ And Joseph also went up from Galilee to be taxed (out of [the] city of Nazareth, into Judea, to [the] city of David which is called Bethlehem, because he was of [the] house and family line of David).

mkjv@Luke:2:9 @ And lo, the angel of [the] Lord came on them, and [the] glory of [the] Lord shone around them. And they were grievously afraid.

mkjv@Luke:2:10 @ And the angel said to them, Do not fear. For behold, I give to you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

mkjv@Luke:2:11 @ For to you is born today, in [the] city of David, a Savior, who is Christ [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:2:13 @ And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of [the] heavenly host, praising God and saying,

mkjv@Luke:2:22 @ And when the days of her purification according to the law of Moses were fulfilled, they brought Him to Jerusalem, to present [Him] to the Lord

mkjv@Luke:2:23 @ (as it is written in [the] Law of the Lord, Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord)

mkjv@Luke:2:24 @ and to offer a sacrifice according to that said in the Law of [the] Lord, A pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons.

mkjv@Luke:2:25 @ And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name [was] Simeon. And this man [was] just and devout, waiting for [the] Consolation of Israel. And [the] Holy Spirit was on him.

mkjv@Luke:2:26 @ And it happened to him, being instructed by the Holy Spirit, he was not to see death before he would see [the] Christ of [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:2:27 @ And he came by the Spirit into the temple. And [as] the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do according to the custom of the law concerning Him,

mkjv@Luke:2:31 @ which You have prepared before [the] face of all the peoples,

mkjv@Luke:2:32 @ a light for revelation [to the] nations, and the glory of Your people Israel.

mkjv@Luke:2:34 @ And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary His mother, Behold, this One is set for [the] fall and rising again of many in Israel, and for a sign spoken against

mkjv@Luke:2:35 @ (yea, a sword shall pierce through your own soul also), so that [the] thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.

mkjv@Luke:2:36 @ And there was a prophetess, Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of [the] tribe of Asher. She was advanced in many days, and had lived with a husband seven years from her virginity.

mkjv@Luke:2:37 @ And she [was] a widow [of] eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, serving God with fastings and prayers night and day.

mkjv@Luke:2:38 @ And she coming in at that instant gave thanks to the Lord and spoke of Him to all those in Jerusalem eagerly expecting redemption.

mkjv@Luke:2:39 @ And when they had finished all things according to [the] Law of [the] Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.

mkjv@Luke:2:40 @ And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom. And the grace of God was on Him.

mkjv@Luke:2:41 @ And His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover.

mkjv@Luke:2:42 @ And when He was twelve years [old], they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the Feast.

mkjv@Luke:2:46 @ And it happened that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both hearing them and questioning them.

mkjv@Luke:3:1 @ And in [the] fifteenth year of the government of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Iturea and the] Trachonitus country, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene--

mkjv@Luke:3:2 @ Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests-- the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

mkjv@Luke:3:3 @ And he came into all the country around Jordan, proclaiming the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins,

mkjv@Luke:3:4 @ as it is written in [the] book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, saying, The] voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of [the] Lord, make His paths straight.

mkjv@Luke:3:6 @ And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.

mkjv@Luke:3:7 @ Then he said to the crowd that came forth to be baptized by him, O generation of vipers! Who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

mkjv@Luke:3:8 @ Therefore bring forth fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say within yourselves, We have Abraham for [our] father. For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

mkjv@Luke:3:9 @ And now also the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Therefore every tree which does not bring forth good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.

mkjv@Luke:3:14 @ And the soldiers also asked of him, saying, And what shall we do? And he said to them, Do not forcibly extort anyone, nor accuse [any] falsely. And be content with your wages.

mkjv@Luke:4:17 @ And [the] book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. And unrolling the book, He found the place where it was written,

mkjv@Luke:4:18 @ The Spirit of [the] Lord [is] on Me; because of this He has anointed Me to proclaim the Gospel to [the] poor. He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim deliverance to the captives, and new sight to [the blind, to set at liberty those having been crushed,

mkjv@Luke:4:19 @ to proclaim the acceptable year of [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:4:20 @ And rolling up the book, returning [it] to the attendant, He sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on Him.

mkjv@Luke:4:22 @ And all bore witness to Him and wondered at the gracious words which came out of His mouth. And they said, Is this not Joseph's son?

mkjv@Luke:4:25 @ But I tell you truly, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land.

mkjv@Luke:4:26 @ But Elijah was not sent to any of them, except to Zarephath, [a city] of Sidon, to a woman, a widow.

mkjv@Luke:4:27 @ And many lepers were in Israel in the [time] of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian.

mkjv@Luke:4:29 @ And they rose up and thrust Him outside the city, and led Him up to the brow of the hill on which their city was built, in order to throw Him down.

mkjv@Luke:4:30 @ But passing through the midst of them, He went away.

mkjv@Luke:4:31 @ And He came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them [on] the sabbath days.

mkjv@Luke:4:33 @ And in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon and cried out with a loud voice,

mkjv@Luke:4:34 @ saying, Let [us] alone! What is to us and to You, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know You, who You are, the Holy One of God.

mkjv@Luke:4:35 @ And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Be quiet and come out of him! And when the demon had thrown him into the midst, he came out of him, not harming him.

mkjv@Luke:4:37 @ And a report about Him went out into every place of the neighborhood.

mkjv@Luke:4:40 @ And the sun sinking, all, as many as had sick ones with different kinds of diseases brought them to Him. And laying hands on each of them, He healed them.

mkjv@Luke:4:41 @ And also demons came out of many, crying out and saying, You are the Christ, the Son of God! And rebuking [them], He did not allow them to speak; for they knew Him to be the Christ.

mkjv@Luke:4:43 @ And He said to them, I must proclaim the gospel, the kingdom of God, to other cities, because I was sent on this [mission],

mkjv@Luke:4:44 @ And He proclaimed in the synagogues of Galilee.

mkjv@Luke:5:1 @ And it happened that the crowd pressed on Him to hear the word of God, He stood by the lake of Gennesaret.

mkjv@Luke:5:3 @ And He entered into one of the boats, which was Simon's, He asked him to thrust out a little from the land. And He sat down and taught the people out of the boat.

mkjv@Luke:5:6 @ And doing this, they enclosed a great multitude of fish. And their net was being torn.

mkjv@Luke:5:8 @ And seeing, Simon Peter fell at the knees of Jesus, saying, Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.

mkjv@Luke:5:9 @ For he and all who were with him were astonished at the haul of fish which they had taken,

mkjv@Luke:5:10 @ and so also [were] James and John, [the] sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Do not fear, from now on you will be taking men alive.

mkjv@Luke:5:12 @ And it happened, as He was in a certain city, behold, a man full of leprosy! And seeing Jesus, he fell on [his] face and begged Him, saying, Lord, if You will, You can cleanse me.

mkjv@Luke:5:14 @ And He commanded him, Tell no one, but go and show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing, as Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.

mkjv@Luke:5:17 @ And it happened on one of the days, even He was teaching. And Pharisees and teachers of [the] Law were sitting by, who had come out of every village of Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem. And the] power of [the] Lord was there, for the curing [of] them.

mkjv@Luke:5:24 @ But so that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins, He said to the paralytic, I say to you, Arise, and take up your cot [and] go to your house.

mkjv@Luke:5:27 @ And after these things He went out and saw a tax-collector named Levi, sitting at the tax-office. And [He] said to him, Follow Me.

mkjv@Luke:5:29 @ And Levi made a great feast in his own house for Him. And there was a great company of tax-collectors and of others who were reclining with them.

mkjv@Luke:5:33 @ And they said to Him, Why do John's disciples fast often and make prayers, and also [the disciples] of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink?

mkjv@Luke:5:34 @ But He said to them, Can you make the sons of the bridechamber fast while the bridegroom is with them?

mkjv@Luke:5:36 @ And He also spoke a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment on an old garment. Otherwise, both the new will tear, and [the old] does not match [the] piece from the new.

mkjv@Luke:6:1 @ And it happened on the second chief sabbath, He went through the grain fields. And His disciples plucked the heads [of grain] and ate, rubbing [them] in their hands.

mkjv@Luke:6:2 @ And certain of the Pharisees said to them, Why do you do that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?

mkjv@Luke:6:4 @ how he went into the house of God and took the showbread, and ate (and also gave to those who were with him) which it is not lawful to eat, except for the priests alone?

mkjv@Luke:6:5 @ And He said to them, The Son of man is Lord also of the sabbath.

mkjv@Luke:6:13 @ And when it was day, He called His disciples. And He chose twelve of them, whom He also named apostles:

mkjv@Luke:6:15 @ Matthew and Thomas; James [the son] of Alpheus, and Simon who was called Zelotes;

mkjv@Luke:6:16 @ Judas [the brother] of James, and Judas Iscariot, who also became [the] betrayer.

mkjv@Luke:6:17 @ And coming down with them, He stood on a level place. And a crowd of His disciples, and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon (who came to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases) were there;

mkjv@Luke:6:19 @ And all the crowd sought to touch Him, for power went out of Him and healed [them] all.

mkjv@Luke:6:20 @ And lifting up His eyes to His disciples, He said, Blessed [are] the poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:6:22 @ Blessed [are] you when men shall hate you, and when they shall cut you off, and when they shall reproach [you] and shall cast out your name as evil, for the sake of the Son of man.

mkjv@Luke:6:26 @ Woe to you when all men shall speak well [of] you! For so their fathers did to the false prophets.

mkjv@Luke:6:29 @ And to him who strikes you on the [one] cheek, also offer the other. And to him who takes away your garment, do not forbid your tunic also.

mkjv@Luke:6:30 @ Give to everyone who asks of you, and from him who takes away your goods, do not ask [them] again.

mkjv@Luke:6:34 @ And if you lend [to those] of whom you hope to receive, what thanks do you have? For sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.

mkjv@Luke:6:35 @ But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing [in return]. And your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest. For He is kind to the unthankful and [to] the evil.

mkjv@Luke:6:42 @ Or how can you say to your brother, Brother, let me pull out the splinter in your eye, when you yourself do not see the beam that is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First cast out the beam out of your own eye, and then you shall see clearly to pull out the splinter that is in your brother's eye.

mkjv@Luke:6:45 @ A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth the good. And an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth the evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

mkjv@Luke:6:49 @ But he who hears and does not perform, is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, on which the stream burst, and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great.

mkjv@Luke:7:1 @ And when He had ended all His words in the ears of the people, He entered into Capernaum.

mkjv@Luke:7:2 @ And a certain servant of a centurion who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die.

mkjv@Luke:7:3 @ And when he heard of Jesus, he sent the elders of the Jews to Him, begging Him that He would come and heal his servant.

mkjv@Luke:7:6 @ Then Jesus went with them. But He being yet not far off from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, Lord, do not trouble Yourself. For I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.

mkjv@Luke:7:11 @ And it happened on the next day, He went into a city called Nain. And many of His disciples and a great crowd went with Him.

mkjv@Luke:7:12 @ And drawing near the gate of the city, even behold, one having died was being carried out, an only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a considerable crowd of the city was with her.

mkjv@Luke:7:17 @ And this report of Him went out in all Judea, and in all the neighborhood.

mkjv@Luke:7:19 @ And John, calling near a certain two of his disciples, sent [them] to Jesus, saying, Are You He that should come, or do we look for another?

mkjv@Luke:7:21 @ And in the same hour He cured many of infirmities and plagues, and of evil spirits. And He gave sight to many who were blind.

mkjv@Luke:7:23 @ And blessed is [he] who shall not be offended in Me.

mkjv@Luke:7:24 @ And when the messengers of John had departed, He began to speak to the people concerning John. What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?

mkjv@Luke:7:25 @ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed with soft clothing? Behold, those in splendid clothing and being in luxury are in kings' palaces.

mkjv@Luke:7:27 @ This is [he] of whom it is written, Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, who shall prepare Your way before You.

mkjv@Luke:7:28 @ For I say to you, Among [those] who are born of woman there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist. But he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

mkjv@Luke:7:29 @ And all the people and the tax-collectors who heard [Him] justified God, being baptized [with] the baptism of John.

mkjv@Luke:7:30 @ But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, not being baptized by him.

mkjv@Luke:7:31 @ And the Lord said, To what then shall I compare the men of this generation? And to what are they like?

mkjv@Luke:7:34 @ The Son of man has come eating and drinking, and you say, Behold a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of tax-collectors and sinners!

mkjv@Luke:7:36 @ And one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And going into the Pharisee's house, He reclined.

mkjv@Luke:7:37 @ And behold, a woman, a sinner in the city, knowing that He reclined in the Pharisee's house, brought an alabaster vial of ointment.

mkjv@Luke:7:38 @ And she stood behind [Him], weeping at His feet, and she began to wash His feet with tears and wipe them with the hair of her head. And [she] ardently kissed His feet and anointed [them] with the ointment.

mkjv@Luke:7:39 @ But seeing this, the Pharisee who had invited Him, spoke within himself, saying, This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what kind of woman [this is] who touches him, for she is a sinner.

mkjv@Luke:7:42 @ And they having nothing to pay, he freely forgave both. Then which of them do [you] say will love him most?

mkjv@Luke:7:44 @ And He turned to the woman and said to Simon, Do you see this woman? I entered into your house, yet you gave Me no water for My feet. But she has washed My feet with tears, and has wiped [them] with the hair of her head.

mkjv@Luke:8:1 @ And it happened afterwards, He traveled in every city and village, proclaiming and announcing the gospel of the kingdom of God. And the Twelve [were] with Him,

mkjv@Luke:8:2 @ and also certain women who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities; Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven demons,

mkjv@Luke:8:3 @ and Joanna the wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to Him of their possessions.

mkjv@Luke:8:5 @ A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, the one fell by the roadside and was trampled; and the birds of the air devoured it.

mkjv@Luke:8:10 @ And He said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God. But to others I speak in parables, so that seeing they might not see and hearing they might not understand.

mkjv@Luke:8:11 @ And the parable is this: The seed is the Word of God.

mkjv@Luke:8:12 @ Those by the roadside are the ones who hear; then the Devil comes and takes the Word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

mkjv@Luke:8:13 @ Those on the rock [are] the ones who, when they hear, receive the Word with joy. And these have no root, who for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

mkjv@Luke:8:14 @ And those which fell among thorns are the ones who, when they have heard, go forth and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of life, and do not bear to maturity.

mkjv@Luke:8:19 @ And His mother and [His] brothers came to Him. And they could not come near Him because of the crowd.

mkjv@Luke:8:21 @ And He answered and said to them, My mother and My brothers are those who hear the Word of God and do it.

mkjv@Luke:8:22 @ And it happened on a certain day that He went into a boat with His disciples. And He said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the lake. And they put out to sea.

mkjv@Luke:8:23 @ But as they sailed, He fell asleep. And a storm of wind came onto the lake. And they were being filled [with water] and were in jeopardy.

mkjv@Luke:8:24 @ And they came to Him and awakened Him, saying, Master, Master, we are perishing! Then being aroused, He rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm.

mkjv@Luke:8:26 @ And they sailed down to the country of the Gadarenes, which is across from Galilee.

mkjv@Luke:8:27 @ And He going out onto land, He met a certain man out of the city, who had had demons a long time, and put on no clothes, nor stayed in a house, but among the tombs.

mkjv@Luke:8:28 @ And seeing Jesus, he cried out and fell down before Him and said with a loud voice, What is to me and to You, Jesus, Son of God the Most High? I beseech You, Do not torment me!

mkjv@Luke:8:29 @ (For He had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had seized him. And he had been kept bound in chains and in fetters, and he broke the bands and was driven into the deserted [places] by the demons.)

mkjv@Luke:8:32 @ And there was there a herd of many pigs feeding on the mountain. And they begged Him that He would allow them to enter into them. And He allowed them.

mkjv@Luke:8:33 @ And coming out of the man, the demons entered into the pigs. And the herd ran violently down a steep place into the lake and were choked.

mkjv@Luke:8:35 @ And they went out to see what had been done. And they came to Jesus and found the man from whom the demons had departed sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

mkjv@Luke:8:37 @ And all the multitude of the neighborhood of the Gadarenes were seized with a great fear, and asked Him to depart from them. And entering into the boat, He returned.

mkjv@Luke:8:38 @ And the man out of whom the demons had gone out begged Him, [desiring] to be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

mkjv@Luke:8:42 @ For he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, and she lay dying. But as He went, the people thronged Him.

mkjv@Luke:8:43 @ And a woman who had a flow of blood twelve years (who had spent all her living on physicians, [and] could not be healed by any)

mkjv@Luke:8:44 @ came behind [Him] and touched the border of His garment. And instantly her flow of blood was staunched.

mkjv@Luke:8:46 @ And Jesus said, Someone has touched Me, for I know that power has gone out of Me.

mkjv@Luke:8:51 @ And coming into the house, He allowed no one to go in, except Peter and James and John, and the father and the mother of the girl.

mkjv@Luke:9:2 @ And [He] sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.

mkjv@Luke:9:5 @ And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them.

mkjv@Luke:9:7 @ And Herod the tetrarch heard of all the things happening by Him. And he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John had risen from [the] dead;

mkjv@Luke:9:8 @ and by some, that Elijah had appeared; and by others, that one of the old prophets had risen again.

mkjv@Luke:9:9 @ And Herod said, John I have beheaded, but who is this of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:10 @ And returning, the apostles told Him all that they had done. And He took them and went aside privately into a deserted place of a city called Bethsaida.

mkjv@Luke:9:11 @ But knowing [this], the crowds followed Him. And He received them and spoke to them of the kingdom of God, and He healed those who had need of healing.

mkjv@Luke:9:17 @ And they ate and were all filled. And there was taken up twelve hand baskets full of fragments of that left over to them.

mkjv@Luke:9:19 @ Answering, they said, John the Baptist; but some [say], Elijah, and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again.

mkjv@Luke:9:20 @ He said to them, But who do you say that I am? Answering, Peter said, The Christ of God.

mkjv@Luke:9:22 @ saying, The Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.

mkjv@Luke:9:25 @ For what is a man profited if he gains the whole world and loses himself, or is cast away?

mkjv@Luke:9:26 @ For whoever shall be ashamed of Me and of My words, the Son of man shall be ashamed of him when He shall come in His own and [in His] Father's glory, and that of the holy angels.

mkjv@Luke:9:27 @ But I tell you truly, there are some standing here who shall not taste of death until they see the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:9:29 @ And as He prayed, the appearance of His countenance was altered, and His clothing [was] dazzling white.

mkjv@Luke:9:31 @ who appeared in glory and spoke of His exodus, which He was about to accomplish at Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:9:35 @ And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is My Son, the Beloved, hear Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:43 @ And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But as all were marveling at all things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,

mkjv@Luke:9:44 @ Let these words sink down into your ears. For the Son of man shall be betrayed into [the] hands of men.

mkjv@Luke:9:45 @ But they did not understand this, and it was hidden from them so that they did not perceive it. And they feared to ask Him of this word.

mkjv@Luke:9:46 @ And an argument came in among them, who might be [the] greater of them.

mkjv@Luke:9:47 @ And seeing the argument of their heart, Jesus took a child and set him beside Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:51 @ And it happened in the fulfilling [of] the days of His taking up, He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:9:52 @ And [He] sent messengers before His face. And they went and entered into a village of the Samaritans to make ready for Him.

mkjv@Luke:9:55 @ But He turned and rebuked them and said, You do not know of what spirit you are.

mkjv@Luke:9:56 @ For the Son of man has not come to destroy men's lives, but to save. And they went to another village.

mkjv@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.

mkjv@Luke:9:60 @ Jesus said to him, Let the dead bury their dead, but you go and proclaim the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:9:61 @ And another also said, Lord, I will follow You, but first allow me to take leave of those in my house.

mkjv@Luke:9:62 @ And Jesus said to him, No one, having put his hand to the plow and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:10:2 @ Then He said to them, The harvest truly [is] great, but the laborers [are] few. Therefore pray [to] the Lord of the harvest that He may send forth laborers into His harvest.

mkjv@Luke:10:6 @ And if a son of peace is there, your peace shall rest on it. If not, it shall return to you,

mkjv@Luke:10:7 @ And remain in the same house, eating and drinking the things [shared] by them; for the laborer is worthy of his hire. Do not move from house to house.

mkjv@Luke:10:9 @ And heal the sick that are in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God has come near you!

mkjv@Luke:10:11 @ Even the dust of your city which clings to us, we wipe off against you. Yet be sure of this, that the kingdom of God has come near you.

mkjv@Luke:10:19 @ Behold, I give to you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the authority of the enemy. And nothing shall by any means hurt you.

mkjv@Luke:10:21 @ In that hour Jesus rejoiced in Spirit and said, I thank You, Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from [the] sophisticated and cunning, and have revealed them to babes. Yes, Father, for so it was pleasing before You.

mkjv@Luke:10:30 @ And answering, Jesus said, A certain [man] went down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell among robbers, who stripped him of his clothing and wounded him, and departed, leaving [him] half dead.

mkjv@Luke:10:34 @ And coming near, [he] bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine, and set him on his own animal and brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

mkjv@Luke:10:35 @ And going on the next day, he took out two denarii and gave [them] to the innkeeper, and said to him, Take care of him. And whatever more you spend, when I come again I will repay you.

mkjv@Luke:10:36 @ Then which of these three, do you think, was neighbor to him who fell among the robbers?

mkjv@Luke:10:37 @ And he said, The [one] doing the [deed of] mercy to him. And Jesus said to him, Go and do likewise.

mkjv@Luke:11:1 @ And it happened [as] He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said to Him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught His disciples.

mkjv@Luke:11:5 @ And He said to them, which of you shall have a friend and shall go to him at midnight and say to him, Friend, lend me three loaves,

mkjv@Luke:11:6 @ for a friend of mine has come from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him?

mkjv@Luke:11:8 @ I say to you, though he will not rise and give to him because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will arise and give him as many as he needs.

mkjv@Luke:11:11 @ For what father of you, [if] the son asks [for] bread, will he give him a stone? Or if [he asks] for a fish, will he give him a snake for a fish?

mkjv@Luke:11:15 @ But some of them said, He casts out demons through Beelzebub the chief of the demons.

mkjv@Luke:11:20 @ But if I cast out demons with [the] finger of God, no doubt the kingdom of God has come on you.

mkjv@Luke:11:24 @ When the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, he walks through dry places seeking rest. And finding none, he says, I will return to my house from which I came out.

mkjv@Luke:11:26 @ And he goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and entering in, they dwell there. And the last state of that man is worse than the first.

mkjv@Luke:11:27 @ And it happened [as] He spoke these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice [and] said to Him, Blessed [is] the womb that bore You, and [the] breasts which You have sucked.

mkjv@Luke:11:28 @ But He said, No; rather, blessed [are] they who hear the Word of God and keep it.

mkjv@Luke:11:29 @ But the crowds pressing on [Him], He began to say, This is an evil generation. It seeks a sign, and no sign will be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet.

mkjv@Luke:11:30 @ For as Jonah was a sign to the Ninevites, so also shall the Son of man be to this generation.

mkjv@Luke:11:31 @ The queen of the south shall rise up in the Judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them. For she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon. And behold, One greater than Solomon [is] here.

mkjv@Luke:11:32 @ The men of Nineveh shall rise up in the Judgment with this generation and shall condemn it. For they repented at the preaching of Jonah. And behold, One greater than Jonah [is] here.

mkjv@Luke:11:34 @ The light of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is sound, your whole body also is [full of] light. But when [your eye] is evil, your body also [is full of] darkness.

mkjv@Luke:11:36 @ Therefore if your whole body [is] full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be [full of] light, as when the shining of a lamp enlightens you.

mkjv@Luke:11:39 @ And the Lord said to him, Now you Pharisees make the outside of the cup and the platter clean, but your inward part is full of plunder and wickedness.

mkjv@Luke:11:41 @ But give alms [of] such things as you have, and behold, all things [are] clean to you.

mkjv@Luke:11:42 @ But woe to you, Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and every herb, and pass over judgment and the love of God. You ought to have done these, and not to leave the other undone.

mkjv@Luke:11:44 @ Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like unseen tombs and the men walking above are not aware of them.

mkjv@Luke:11:45 @ And one of the lawyers answered and said to Him, Master, you reproach us also when you say this.

mkjv@Luke:11:46 @ And He said, Woe to you also, lawyers! For you load men with burdens grievous to be carried, and [you] yourselves do not touch the burdens with one of your fingers.

mkjv@Luke:11:47 @ Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets, and your fathers killed them.

mkjv@Luke:11:48 @ Truly you bear witness that you consent to the deeds of your fathers. For they indeed killed them, and you build their tombs.

mkjv@Luke:11:49 @ Therefore the wisdom of God also said, I will send them prophets and apostles, and [some] of them they shall slay and persecute,

mkjv@Luke:11:50 @ so that the blood of all the prophets, which was shed from [the] foundation of the world, may be required of this generation;

mkjv@Luke:11:51 @ from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zechariah, [who] perished between the altar and the temple. Truly I say to you, It shall be required of this generation.

mkjv@Luke:11:52 @ Woe to you, lawyers! For you have taken away the key of knowledge. You did not enter in yourselves, and you have hindered those who were entering in.

mkjv@Luke:11:54 @ lying in ambush for Him, and seeking to catch something out of His mouth, so that they might accuse Him.

mkjv@Luke:12:1 @ In the meantime, when there had gathered together an innumerable crowd of people, so as to trample on one another, He began to say to His disciples first, Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

mkjv@Luke:12:4 @ And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

mkjv@Luke:12:5 @ But I will warn you of whom you shall fear: Fear Him who, after He has killed, has authority to cast into hell. Yea, I say to you, fear Him.

mkjv@Luke:12:6 @ Are not five sparrows sold for two assaria? And not one of them is forgotten before God.

mkjv@Luke:12:7 @ But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore do not fear, you are of more value than many sparrows.

mkjv@Luke:12:8 @ Also I say to you, Whoever shall confess Me before men, the Son of man also shall confess him before the angels of God.

mkjv@Luke:12:9 @ But he who denies Me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.

mkjv@Luke:12:10 @ And whoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him. But to him who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit, [it] shall not be forgiven.

mkjv@Luke:12:13 @ And one of the company said to Him, Master, speak to my brother to divide the inheritance with me.

mkjv@Luke:12:15 @ And He said to them, Watch and keep yourselves from covetousness. For a man's life is not in the abundance of the things which he possesses.

mkjv@Luke:12:16 @ And He spoke a parable to them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully.

mkjv@Luke:12:20 @ But God said to him, Fool! This night your soul shall be required of you, then whose shall be those things which you have prepared?

mkjv@Luke:12:25 @ And which of you [by] being anxious can add one cubit to his stature?

mkjv@Luke:12:27 @ Consider the lilies, how they grow; they do not toil, they do not spin. And yet I say to you that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

mkjv@Luke:12:30 @ For all these things the nations of the world seek after, and your Father knows that you have need of these things.

mkjv@Luke:12:31 @ But rather seek the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you.

mkjv@Luke:12:39 @ And know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and would not have allowed his house to be dug through.

mkjv@Luke:12:40 @ Therefore be ready also, for the Son of man comes at an hour when you think not.

mkjv@Luke:12:42 @ And the Lord said, Who then is that faithful and wise steward whom [his] lord shall set over his houseservants, to give [them their] portion of food in season?

mkjv@Luke:12:46 @ the lord of that servant will come in a day when he does not expect, and at an hour when he does not know. And he will cut him apart, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers.

mkjv@Luke:12:48 @ But he not knowing, and doing [things] worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few [stripes]. For to whomever much is given, of him much shall be required. And to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.

mkjv@Luke:12:54 @ And He also said to the crowd, When you see a cloud rise out of the west, immediately you say, There is a shower coming. And so it is.

mkjv@Luke:12:56 @ Hypocrites! You know to discern the face of the heaven and the earth, but how [is it] that you do not discern this time?

mkjv@Luke:12:57 @ And why, even of yourselves, do you not judge what is right?

mkjv@Luke:12:58 @ For as you go with your adversary to the judge, give pains in the way to be set free from him, lest he drag you to the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer cast you into the prison.

mkjv@Luke:13:1 @ And some were present at the same time reporting to Him of the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mixed with their sacrifices.

mkjv@Luke:13:7 @ And he said to the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig-tree, and find none. Cut it down, why does it encumber the ground?

mkjv@Luke:13:10 @ And He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.

mkjv@Luke:13:11 @ And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and she was bowed together and was not able to be completely erect.

mkjv@Luke:13:15 @ And the Lord answered him and said, Hypocrite! Does not each one of you on the sabbath loosen his ox or ass from the stall and lead [it] away, to give [it] drink?

mkjv@Luke:13:16 @ And ought not this [woman], being a daughter of Abraham whom Satan has bound, lo these eighteen years, be loosened from this bond on the Sabbath day?

mkjv@Luke:13:18 @ And He said, What is the kingdom of God like? And to what shall I compare it?

mkjv@Luke:13:19 @ It is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and threw into his garden. And it grew and became a great tree, and the birds of the air lodged in its branches.

mkjv@Luke:13:20 @ And again He said, To what shall I compare the kingdom of God?

mkjv@Luke:13:21 @ It is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, until the whole was leavened.

mkjv@Luke:13:25 @ And once the Master of the house has risen up and has shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us, and He shall answer and say to you, I do not know you; from where are you;

mkjv@Luke:13:27 @ But He shall say, I tell you, I do not know you; from where you are. Depart from Me, all workers of unrighteousness!

mkjv@Luke:13:28 @ There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you will see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and yourselves being thrust out.

mkjv@Luke:13:29 @ And they will come from the east and the west, and from the north and the south, and will recline in the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:13:31 @ The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying to Him, Go out and depart from here, for Herod will kill you.

mkjv@Luke:13:33 @ Yet I must walk today and tomorrow and the [day] following. For it cannot be that a prophet perish outside of Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:13:34 @ Jerusalem! Jerusalem! the [one] killing the prophets, and stoning those having been sent to her; how often I desired to gather your children in the way a hen [gathers] her brood under the wings, and you did not desire [it].

mkjv@Luke:13:35 @ Behold, your house is left to you desolate. And truly I say to you, You will not see Me until it come when you say, Blessed [is] He who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord.

mkjv@Luke:14:1 @ And as He went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, it happened that they watched Him.

mkjv@Luke:14:5 @ And He answered them, saying, Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fall into a pit and will not immediately pull him out on the sabbath day?

mkjv@Luke:14:14 @ and you shall be blessed, for they cannot repay you; for you shall be repaid at the resurrection of the just.

mkjv@Luke:14:15 @ And one of those who reclined with [Him] heard these things, and [he] said to Him, Blessed [are] those eating bread in the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:14:18 @ And all with one [consent] began to make excuse. The first said to him, I have bought a piece of ground, I must go and see it. I beg you, have me excused.

mkjv@Luke:14:19 @ And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I beg you, have me excused.

mkjv@Luke:14:21 @ And coming up that servant reported these things to his lord. And the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city and bring in here the poor and the maimed, and the lame and the blind.

mkjv@Luke:14:24 @ For I say to you that none of these men who were invited shall taste of my supper.

mkjv@Luke:14:28 @ For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first [and] count the cost, whether he may have [enough] to finish it;

mkjv@Luke:14:32 @ Or else, while the other is still a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks [conditions] of peace.

mkjv@Luke:14:33 @ So then, everyone of you who does not forsake all his possessions, he cannot be My disciple.

mkjv@Luke:15:4 @ What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after that which is lost until he finds it?

mkjv@Luke:15:10 @ Likewise I say to you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents.

mkjv@Luke:15:12 @ And the younger of them said to [his] father, Father, give me the portion of goods that is coming [to me]. And he divided [his] living to them.

mkjv@Luke:15:15 @ And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country. And he sent him into his fields to feed pigs.

mkjv@Luke:15:17 @ And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father abound in loaves, and I perish with hunger!

mkjv@Luke:15:19 @ and am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me like one of your hired servants.

mkjv@Luke:15:20 @ And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him.

mkjv@Luke:15:26 @ And he called one of the servants and asked what these things meant.

mkjv@Luke:15:30 @ But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your living with harlots, you have killed for him the fattened calf.

mkjv@Luke:15:32 @ It was right that we should make merry and be glad, for this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.

mkjv@Luke:16:2 @ And he called him and said to him, What [is] this I hear about you? Give an account of your stewardship, for you may no longer be steward.

mkjv@Luke:16:4 @ I know what I will do, so that when I am put out of the stewardship they may receive me into their houses.

mkjv@Luke:16:5 @ So he called every one of his lord's debtors and said; to the first, How much do you owe my lord?

mkjv@Luke:16:6 @ And he said, A hundred baths of oil. And he said to him, Take your bill and sit down quickly and write fifty.

mkjv@Luke:16:7 @ And he said to another, And how much do you owe? And he said, A hundred cors of wheat. And he said to him, Take your bill and write eighty.

mkjv@Luke:16:8 @ And the unjust steward's lord commended him because he had done wisely. For the children of this world are in their generation wiser than the children of light.

mkjv@Luke:16:9 @ And I say to you, Make friends by the mammon of unrighteousness for yourselves, so that when you fail, they may receive you into everlasting dwellings.

mkjv@Luke:16:15 @ And He said to them, You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.

mkjv@Luke:16:16 @ The law and the prophets [were] until John. Since that time the kingdom of God is proclaimed, and everyone is pressing into it.

mkjv@Luke:16:17 @ And it is easier [for] the heaven and earth to pass than for one tittle of the law to fail.

mkjv@Luke:16:20 @ And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, who was laid at his gate, full of sores

mkjv@Luke:16:23 @ And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being in torments, and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

mkjv@Luke:16:24 @ And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me and send Lazarus so that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, for I am tormented in this flame.

mkjv@Luke:16:28 @ for I have five brothers, so that he may testify to them, lest they also come into this place of torment.

mkjv@Luke:17:1 @ And He said to the disciples, It is impossible but that offenses will come. But woe [to him] through whom they come!

mkjv@Luke:17:2 @ It were better for him that a millstone were hanged around his neck and he were cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.

mkjv@Luke:17:6 @ And the Lord said, If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this sycamine tree, Be rooted up and be planted in the sea! And it would obey you.

mkjv@Luke:17:7 @ But which of you who has a servant plowing or feeding will say [to him] immediately after he has come from the field, Come, recline?

mkjv@Luke:17:10 @ So likewise you, when you shall have done all the things commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants, for we have done what we ought to do.

mkjv@Luke:17:11 @ And as He went to Jerusalem, it happened that he went through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

mkjv@Luke:17:12 @ And as He entered into a certain village, ten leprous men met Him, who stood afar off.

mkjv@Luke:17:15 @ And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back and glorified God with a loud voice.

mkjv@Luke:17:20 @ And being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, He answered and said, The kingdom of God does not come with observation.

mkjv@Luke:17:21 @ Nor shall they say, Lo here! or, behold, there! For behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst.

mkjv@Luke:17:22 @ And He said to the disciples, The days will come when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, and you shall not see [it].

mkjv@Luke:17:24 @ For as the lightning which lights up, flashing from the [one part] under heaven, [and] shines to the [other part] under heaven, so also shall the Son of man be in His day.

mkjv@Luke:17:25 @ But first He must suffer many things and be rejected of this generation.

mkjv@Luke:17:26 @ And as it was in the days of Noah, so it also shall be in the days of the Son of man.

mkjv@Luke:17:28 @ So also as it was in the days of Lot: they ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built;

mkjv@Luke:17:29 @ but the day Lot went out of Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from the heaven and destroyed [them] all.

mkjv@Luke:17:30 @ Even so it shall be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

mkjv@Luke:18:3 @ And a widow was in that city. And she came to Him, saying, Avenge me of my adversary.

mkjv@Luke:18:8 @ I say to you that He will avenge them speedily. Yet when the Son of man comes, shall He find faith on the earth?

mkjv@Luke:18:12 @ I fast twice [on] the Sabbath, I give tithes of all that I possess.

mkjv@Luke:18:13 @ And standing afar off, the tax-collector would not even lift up [his] eyes to Heaven, but struck on his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner!

mkjv@Luke:18:16 @ But Jesus called them and said, Allow the little children to come to Me, and forbid them not. For of such is the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:18:17 @ Truly I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no way enter into it.

mkjv@Luke:18:24 @ And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, He said, How hardly those having riches shall enter into the kingdom of God!

mkjv@Luke:18:25 @ For it is easier [for] a camel to go through a needle's eye than for a rich one to enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:18:29 @ And He said to them, Truly I say to you, There is no one who has left house, or parents, or brothers, or wife, or children for the sake of the kingdom of God,

mkjv@Luke:18:31 @ And He took the Twelve and said to them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man will be accomplished.

mkjv@Luke:18:34 @ And they did not understand any of these things. And this saying was hidden from them, nor did they know the things which were spoken.

mkjv@Luke:18:37 @ And they told him that Jesus of Nazareth passed by.

mkjv@Luke:18:38 @ And he cried, saying, Jesus, Son of David! Have mercy on me.

mkjv@Luke:18:39 @ And they who were in front rebuked him that he should be quiet. But he cried so much the more, Son of David! Have mercy on me.

mkjv@Luke:19:3 @ And he sought to see Jesus, to see who He was. And he could not because of the press, because he was little in stature.

mkjv@Luke:19:8 @ And Zaccheus stood and said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, I give half of my goods to the poor. And [in] anything I accused anyone falsely, I restore [it] fourfold.

mkjv@Luke:19:9 @ And Jesus said to him, This day salvation has come to this house, because he also is a son of Abraham.

mkjv@Luke:19:10 @ For the Son of man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.

mkjv@Luke:19:11 @ And as they heard these things, He added and spoke a parable, because He was near Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God was about to appear immediately.

mkjv@Luke:19:22 @ And he said to him, I will judge you out of your own mouth, wicked servant! You knew that I was a harsh man, taking up what I had not laid down and reaping what I did not sow.

mkjv@Luke:19:29 @ And it happened as He drew near Bethphage and Bethany, toward the mount called Mount of Olives, He sent two of the disciples,

mkjv@Luke:19:30 @ saying, Go into the village across [from you], and having entered, you will find a colt tied up, on which no one of men has yet sat. Untie it and bring [it].

mkjv@Luke:19:31 @ And if anyone asks you, Why are you untying [it]? You will say this to him, Because the Lord has need of it.

mkjv@Luke:19:34 @ And they said, The Lord has need of him.

mkjv@Luke:19:37 @ And when He had come near, even now at the descent of the Mount of Olives, all the multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all [the] mighty works which they had seen,

mkjv@Luke:19:38 @ saying, Blessed [is] the King coming in the name of the Lord! Peace in Heaven and glory in [the] highest!

mkjv@Luke:19:39 @ And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to Him, Teacher, rebuke your disciples.

mkjv@Luke:19:42 @ saying, If you had known, even you, even at least in this day of yours, the things for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes.

mkjv@Luke:19:44 @ And they will tear you down, and your children within you, and will not leave a stone on a stone because you did not know the time of your visitation.

mkjv@Luke:19:46 @ saying to them, It is written, My house is a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves.

mkjv@Luke:19:47 @ And He taught in the temple daily. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy Him.

mkjv@Luke:20:1 @ And on one of those days, as He taught the people in the temple and proclaimed the gospel, it happened that the chief priests and the scribes along with the elders came on [Him].

mkjv@Luke:20:4 @ The baptism of John, was it from Heaven or from men?

mkjv@Luke:20:10 @ And in season he sent a servant to the vinedressers, so that they should give him the fruit of the vineyard. But the vinedressers beat him and sent [him] away empty.

mkjv@Luke:20:13 @ And the lord of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. It may be that they will respect [him] when they see him.

mkjv@Luke:20:15 @ So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed [him]. What then shall the lord of the vineyard do to them?

mkjv@Luke:20:17 @ And He looked at them and said, What then is this which is written, The] Stone which the builders rejected, the same has become [the] Head of [the] corner?

mkjv@Luke:20:20 @ And they watched and sent forth spies, pretending themselves to be righteous men, so that they might seize upon a word of His, that they might deliver Him in this way to the power and authority of the governor.

mkjv@Luke:20:21 @ And they asked Him, saying, Teacher, we know that you say and teach rightly, and do not accept the person of anyone, but truly teach the way of God.

mkjv@Luke:20:26 @ And they could not take hold of His words before the people. And they marveled at His answer and were silent.

mkjv@Luke:20:27 @ And certain of the Sadducees came, those speaking against a resurrection, [that it was] not to be. And they asked Him,

mkjv@Luke:20:32 @ Last of all the woman also died.

mkjv@Luke:20:34 @ And answering, Jesus said to them, The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage,

mkjv@Luke:20:36 @ Nor can they die [any] more, for they are equal to the angels, and are the sons of God, being the sons of the resurrection.

mkjv@Luke:20:37 @ But that the dead are raised, even Moses pointed out at the Bush, when he called [the] Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

mkjv@Luke:20:38 @ For He is not God of [the] dead, but of the living. For all live to Him.

mkjv@Luke:20:39 @ And answering, certain of the scribes said, Teacher, you have spoken well.

mkjv@Luke:20:41 @ And He said to them, How do they say that Christ is the Son of David?

mkjv@Luke:20:42 @ Even David himself says in [the] Book of Psalms, The LORD said to my Lord, Sit at My right hand

mkjv@Luke:20:46 @ Beware of the scribes who desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the first seats in the synagogues, and the chief places at the feasts;

mkjv@Luke:21:3 @ And He said, Truly I say to you that this poor widow has cast [in] more than all of them.

mkjv@Luke:21:4 @ For all these have cast in to the offerings of God from their abundance, but out of her poverty she has cast [in] all the living she had.

mkjv@Luke:21:5 @ And as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and gifts, He said,

mkjv@Luke:21:9 @ But when you hear of wars and disturbances, do not be terrified, for all these things must first occur, but the end [is] not at once.

mkjv@Luke:21:16 @ And you shall be betrayed also by parents and brothers and kinsmen and friends. And they will cause [some] of you to be put to death.

mkjv@Luke:21:18 @ But there shall not a hair of your head perish.

mkjv@Luke:21:22 @ For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

mkjv@Luke:21:24 @ And they shall fall by [the] sword's edge. And shall be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the nations until [the] times of [the] nations is fulfilled.

mkjv@Luke:21:25 @ And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars. And on the earth [will be] anxiety of nations with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

mkjv@Luke:21:26 @ men fainting from fear, and expecting those things which have come on the earth. For the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

mkjv@Luke:21:27 @ And then they shall see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

mkjv@Luke:21:31 @ So also, when you see these things happening, know that the kingdom of God is near.

mkjv@Luke:21:34 @ And take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts are weighed down with headaches and drinking and anxieties of this life; and that day should suddenly come on you;

mkjv@Luke:21:35 @ for it shall come as a snare on all those sitting on [the] face of the whole earth.

mkjv@Luke:21:36 @ Watch therefore, praying in every season that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things which shall occur, and to stand before the Son of man.

mkjv@Luke:21:37 @ And [in] the days He was teaching in the temple. And [in] the nights He went out, and lodged in the mount called [the Mount] of Olives.

mkjv@Luke:22:1 @ And the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, drew near.

mkjv@Luke:22:3 @ And Satan entered into Judas, surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the Twelve.

mkjv@Luke:22:7 @ And the day of the Unleavened Bread came, when the passover must be killed.

mkjv@Luke:22:10 @ And He said to them, Behold, when you have entered into the city, you will meet a man bearing a pitcher of water. Follow him into the house where he enters.

mkjv@Luke:22:11 @ And you shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher says to you, Where is the guest room where I shall eat the passover with My disciples?

mkjv@Luke:22:16 @ For I say to you, I will not any more eat of it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:22:18 @ For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God shall come.

mkjv@Luke:22:19 @ And He took bread and gave thanks, and He broke [it] and gave [it] to them, saying, This is My body which is given for you, this do in remembrance of Me.

mkjv@Luke:22:21 @ But, behold, the hand of My betrayer [is] with Me on the table.

mkjv@Luke:22:22 @ And truly the Son of man goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!

mkjv@Luke:22:23 @ And they began to inquire among themselves which of them it was that should do this thing.

mkjv@Luke:22:24 @ And there was also a dispute among them as to which of them seems to be greater.

mkjv@Luke:22:25 @ And He said to them, The kings of the nations exercise lordship over them. And they who exercise authority on them are called benefactors.

mkjv@Luke:22:30 @ that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

mkjv@Luke:22:39 @ And going out, according to [His] custom, He went to the Mount of Olives. And His disciples also followed Him.

mkjv@Luke:22:44 @ And being in an agony He prayed more earnestly. And His sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

mkjv@Luke:22:45 @ And when He rose up from prayer and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping because of sorrow.

mkjv@Luke:22:47 @ And [as] He [was] yet speaking, behold a crowd! And he who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, went before them. And he drew near Jesus to kiss Him.

mkjv@Luke:22:48 @ But Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?

mkjv@Luke:22:50 @ And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

mkjv@Luke:22:52 @ And Jesus said to the chief priests and commanders of the temple, and the elders, who had come to Him, Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and staves?

mkjv@Luke:22:53 @ When I was with you in the temple daily, you did not stretch out your hand on Me. But this is your hour, and the authority of the darkness.

mkjv@Luke:22:54 @ And laying hold on Him, they led [Him] away and brought Him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.

mkjv@Luke:22:55 @ And lighting a fire in [the] middle of the court, and they sitting down, Peter sat in their midst.

mkjv@Luke:22:58 @ And after a little while another saw him and said, You also are of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not!

mkjv@Luke:22:61 @ And the Lord turned and looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, Before the cock crows, you shall deny Me three times.

mkjv@Luke:22:66 @ And when day came, the body of elders of the people, and the chief priests and the scribes, came together. And they led Him to the sanhedrin, saying,

mkjv@Luke:22:69 @ From now on the Son of man shall sit at the right [hand] of the power of God.

mkjv@Luke:22:70 @ And they all said, Are you then the Son of God? And He said to them, You say [it], because I AM!

mkjv@Luke:23:1 @ And rising up, all the multitude of them led Him before Pilate.

mkjv@Luke:23:3 @ And Pilate asked Him, saying, Are you the king of the Jews? And He answered him and said, You say [it].

mkjv@Luke:23:14 @ Pilate said to them, You have brought this Man to me as perverting the people. And behold, having examined [Him] before you, I have found no fault in this Man [regarding those things] of which you accuse Him;

mkjv@Luke:23:15 @ no, nor even Herod, for I sent you to him, and lo, nothing worthy of death has been done by Him.

mkjv@Luke:23:19 @ (who was thrown into prison because of a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder).

mkjv@Luke:23:22 @ And he said to them the third [time], Why? What evil has He done? I have found no cause of death in Him, therefore I will chastise Him and let [Him] go.

mkjv@Luke:23:23 @ But they pressed [on him], with loud voices, requesting that He might be crucified. And their voices and those of the chief priests prevailed.

mkjv@Luke:23:26 @ And as they led Him away, they laid hold on one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country. And they laid the cross on him, that he might carry [it] after Jesus.

mkjv@Luke:23:27 @ And a great multitude of people were following Him, and of women who also were bewailing and lamenting Him.

mkjv@Luke:23:28 @ But turning to them, Jesus said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

mkjv@Luke:23:35 @ And the people stood watching. And also the rulers with them, scoffing, saying, He saved others, let Him save Himself, if He is the Christ, the chosen of God.

mkjv@Luke:23:36 @ And coming near, the soldiers also mocked Him, and offering Him sour wine,

mkjv@Luke:23:37 @ and saying, If You are the king of the Jews, save Yourself.

mkjv@Luke:23:38 @ And an inscription also was written over Him in letters of Greek and Latin and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mkjv@Luke:23:39 @ And one of the hanged criminals blasphemed Him, saying, If you are Christ, save Yourself and us.

mkjv@Luke:23:41 @ And we indeed justly so, for we receive the due reward of our deeds, but this Man has done nothing amiss.

mkjv@Luke:23:45 @ And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was torn in the middle.

mkjv@Luke:23:51 @ this one was not assenting to their counsel and deed. [He was] from Arimathea, a city of the Jews; and he also himself waited for the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Luke:23:52 @ This [man] went to Pilate and begged the body of Jesus.

mkjv@Luke:23:55 @ And also women [were] following, who were accompanying Him out of Galilee, who watched the tomb, and how His body was placed.

mkjv@Luke:24:1 @ And [on] the first of the sabbaths, while still very early, they came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

mkjv@Luke:24:3 @ And going in, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Luke:24:7 @ saying, The Son of man must be delivered into [the] hands of sinful men and be crucified, and the third day rise again?

mkjv@Luke:24:10 @ It was Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary [the mother] of James, and the rest with them, who told these things to the apostles.

mkjv@Luke:24:13 @ And behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, it being [about] sixty stadia from Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:24:14 @ And they talked to each other of all these things which had happened.

mkjv@Luke:24:18 @ And one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered and said to Him, [Are] you only a stranger in Jerusalem and have not known the things which have occurred there in these days?

mkjv@Luke:24:19 @ And He said to them, What things? And they said to Him, The things concerning Jesus of Nazareth, who was a man, a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

mkjv@Luke:24:20 @ and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered Him to [the] judgment of death, and have crucified Him.

mkjv@Luke:24:22 @ Yes, and also some of our women astounded us, having been early at the tomb;

mkjv@Luke:24:23 @ and when they did not find His body, [they] came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels, who said that He was alive.

mkjv@Luke:24:24 @ And some of those with us went to the tomb and found [it] even as the women had said. But they did not see Him.

mkjv@Luke:24:25 @ And He said to them, O fools and slow of heart to believe all things that the prophets spoke!

mkjv@Luke:24:35 @ And in the way they related the things happening, and how He had been known by them in breaking of the loaf.

mkjv@Luke:24:42 @ And they handed to Him a piece of a broiled fish and of a honeycomb.

mkjv@Luke:24:44 @ And He said to them, These [are] the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the law of Moses and in the Prophets and [in] the Psalms about Me.

mkjv@Luke:24:47 @ and that repentance and remission of sins should be proclaimed in His name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

mkjv@Luke:24:48 @ And you are witnesses of these things.

mkjv@Luke:24:49 @ And behold, I send the promise of My father on you. But you sit in the city of Jerusalem until you are clothed with power from on high.

mkjv@John:1:4 @ In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.

mkjv@John:1:8 @ He was not that Light, but [was sent] to bear witness of that Light.

mkjv@John:1:12 @ But as many as received Him, He gave to them authority to become the children of God, to those who believe on His name,

mkjv@John:1:13 @ who were born, not of bloods, nor of [the] will of [the] flesh, nor of [the] will of man, but [were born] of God.

mkjv@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh, and tabernacled among us. And we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of [the] Father, full of grace and of truth.

mkjv@John:1:15 @ John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, This was [He] of whom I spoke: He who comes after me has been before me, for He was preceding me.

mkjv@John:1:16 @ And out of His fullness we all have received, and grace for grace.

mkjv@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].

mkjv@John:1:19 @ And this is the witness of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you?

mkjv@John:1:22 @ Then they said to him, Who are you so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say of yourself?

mkjv@John:1:23 @ He said, I [am] the voice of one crying in the wilderness: Make straight the way of the Lord, as the prophet Isaiah said.

mkjv@John:1:27 @ He it is who, coming after me, who has been before me; of whom I am not worthy to loosen the thong of His sandal.

mkjv@John:1:29 @ The next day John sees Jesus coming to him and says, Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

mkjv@John:1:30 @ This is He of whom I said, After me comes a Man who has been before me, for He preceded me.

mkjv@John:1:34 @ And I saw and bore record that this is the Son of God.

mkjv@John:1:35 @ Again, the next day afterward, John stood with two of his disciples.

mkjv@John:1:36 @ And looking upon Jesus as He walked, he says, Behold the Lamb of God!

mkjv@John:1:40 @ One of the two who heard John and followed Him was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.

mkjv@John:1:42 @ And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus saw him, He said, You are Simon the son of Jonah; you shall be called Cephas (which translated is, A stone).

mkjv@John:1:44 @ Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

mkjv@John:1:45 @ Philip found Nathanael and said to him, We have found Him of whom Moses wrote in the law and the prophets, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

mkjv@John:1:46 @ And Nathanael said to him, Can there be any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip said to him, Come and see.

mkjv@John:1:47 @ Jesus saw Nathanael coming to Him and said of him, Behold an Israelite indeed in whom is no guile!

mkjv@John:1:49 @ Nathanael answered and said to Him, Rabbi, You are the Son of God. You are the King of Israel!

mkjv@John:1:51 @ And He said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Hereafter you shall see Heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

mkjv@John:2:1 @ And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. And the mother of Jesus was there.

mkjv@John:2:3 @ And when they lacked wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, They have no wine.

mkjv@John:2:6 @ And there were six stone waterpots there, according to the purification of the Jews, each containing two or three measures.

mkjv@John:2:8 @ And He said to them, Now draw out and carry it to the master of the feast. And they carried [it].

mkjv@John:2:9 @ When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water which was made wine (and did not know where it was from, but the servants who drew the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom.

mkjv@John:2:11 @ This beginning of miracles Jesus did in Cana of Galilee. And [it] revealed His glory. And His disciples believed on Him.

mkjv@John:2:13 @ And the Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@John:2:15 @ And when He had made a scourge of small cords, He drove them all out of the temple, also the sheep and the oxen. And He poured out the money-changers' money and overthrew the tables.

mkjv@John:2:16 @ And He said to those who sold doves, Take these things away from here. Do not make My Father's house a house of merchandise.

mkjv@John:2:17 @ And His disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of Your house has eaten Me up.

mkjv@John:2:21 @ But He spoke of the temple of His body.

mkjv@John:2:25 @ and did not need that anyone should testify of man. For He knew what was in man.

mkjv@John:3:1 @ And there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

mkjv@John:3:3 @ Jesus answered and said to him, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

mkjv@John:3:5 @ Jesus answered, Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@John:3:6 @ That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

mkjv@John:3:8 @ The Spirit breathes where He desires, and you hear His voice, but you do not know from where He comes, and where He goes; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit.

mkjv@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered and said to him, Are you the teacher of Israel and do not know these things?

mkjv@John:3:13 @ And no one has ascended up to Heaven except He who came down from Heaven, the Son of man who is in Heaven.

mkjv@John:3:14 @ But even as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up,

mkjv@John:3:18 @ He who believes on Him is not condemned, but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.

mkjv@John:3:22 @ After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea. And [He] stayed there with them and baptized.

mkjv@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. Then my joy is fulfilled.

mkjv@John:3:34 @ For He whom God has sent speaks the words of God, for God does not give the Spirit by measure.

mkjv@John:3:36 @ He who believes on the Son has everlasting life, and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him.

mkjv@John:4:5 @ Then He came to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

mkjv@John:4:7 @ A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, Give me to drink.

mkjv@John:4:9 @ Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, How do you, being a Jew, ask a drink of me, who am a woman of Samaria? For the Jews do not associate with Samaritans.

mkjv@John:4:10 @ Jesus answered and said to her, If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that says to you, Give Me to drink, you would have asked of Him, and He would have given you living water.

mkjv@John:4:12 @ Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children and his cattle?

mkjv@John:4:13 @ Jesus answered and said to her, Whoever drinks of this water shall thirst again,

mkjv@John:4:14 @ but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst, but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

mkjv@John:4:22 @ You worship what you do not know, we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.

mkjv@John:4:30 @ And they went out of the city and came to Him.

mkjv@John:4:34 @ Jesus said to them, My food is to do the will of [Him] who sent Me and to finish His work.

mkjv@John:4:39 @ And many of the Samaritans of that city believed upon Him because of the saying of the woman, who testified, He told me all that I ever did.

mkjv@John:4:41 @ And many more believed because of His own word.

mkjv@John:4:42 @ And they said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of your saying, for we have heard [Him] ourselves and know that this is truly the Christ, the Savior of the world.

mkjv@John:4:46 @ Then Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee, where He made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

mkjv@John:4:47 @ When He heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and begged Him that He would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

mkjv@John:4:52 @ Then he asked of them the hour when he began to get better. And they said to him, Yesterday [at the] seventh hour the fever left him.

mkjv@John:4:54 @ This [is] the second miracle Jesus did, when He had come out of Judea into Galilee.

mkjv@John:5:1 @ After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@John:5:3 @ In these lay a great multitude of those who were sick, of blind, lame, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.

mkjv@John:5:4 @ For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool and troubled the water. Then whoever first stepped in after the troubling of the water was made whole of whatever disease he had.

mkjv@John:5:18 @ Then, because of this, the Jews sought the more to kill Him, because He not only had broken the sabbath, but also said that God was His father, making Himself equal with God.

mkjv@John:5:19 @ Then Jesus answered and said to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself but what He sees the Father do. For whatever things He does, these also the Son does likewise.

mkjv@John:5:21 @ For as the Father raises the dead and makes alive, even so the Son of man makes alive whomever He wills.

mkjv@John:5:25 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, the hour is coming and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they who hear shall live.

mkjv@John:5:27 @ and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is [the] Son of man.

mkjv@John:5:29 @ and shall come forth, those who have done good to the resurrection of life, and those who have practiced evil to the resurrection of condemnation.

mkjv@John:5:30 @ I can do nothing of My own self. As I hear, I judge, and My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of [the] Father who has sent Me.

mkjv@John:5:31 @ If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true.

mkjv@John:5:32 @ There is another who bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness which He witnesses of Me is true.

mkjv@John:5:36 @ But I have greater witness than that of John, for the works which the Father has given Me that I should finish them, the works which I do themselves witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me.

mkjv@John:5:37 @ And He sending Me, the Father Himself, has borne witness of Me. Neither have you heard His voice at any time nor seen His shape.

mkjv@John:5:39 @ You search the Scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life. And they are the ones witnessing of Me,

mkjv@John:5:42 @ But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in you.

mkjv@John:5:46 @ For if you had believed Moses, you would have believed Me, for he wrote of Me.

mkjv@John:6:1 @ After these things Jesus went over the Sea of Galilee, [the Sea] of Tiberias.

mkjv@John:6:4 @ And the Passover was near, a feast of the Jews.

mkjv@John:6:8 @ One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

mkjv@John:6:11 @ And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks, He distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to those who had reclined; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted.

mkjv@John:6:13 @ Therefore they gathered and filled twelve handbaskets with fragments of the five barley loaves which were left over to those who had eaten.

mkjv@John:6:18 @ And the sea rose up because of a great wind that blew.

mkjv@John:6:22 @ The following day, the crowd standing on the other side of the sea had seen that there was no other little boat there except that one into which His disciples had entered, and when they saw that Jesus did not go with His disciples into the little boat, but [that] His disciples had gone away alone,

mkjv@John:6:25 @ And when they had found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, Rabbi, when did you come here?

mkjv@John:6:27 @ Do not labor [for] the food that perishes, but for that food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of man will give you. For God the Father sealed Him.

mkjv@John:6:28 @ Then they said to Him, What shall we do that we might work the works of God?

mkjv@John:6:29 @ Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that you believe on [Him] whom He has sent.

mkjv@John:6:33 @ For the bread of God is He who comes down from Heaven and gives life to the world.

mkjv@John:6:35 @ And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes on Me shall never thirst.

mkjv@John:6:38 @ For I came down from Heaven, not to do My own will but the will of Him who sent Me.

mkjv@John:6:39 @ And this is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all which He has given Me I should lose nothing but should raise it up again at the last day.

mkjv@John:6:40 @ And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes on Him should have everlasting life. And I will raise him up at the last day.

mkjv@John:6:42 @ And they said, Is this not Jesus the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How now does this One say, I have come down from Heaven?

mkjv@John:6:45 @ It is written in the prophets, And they shall all be taught of God. Therefore everyone who hears and learns from the Father comes to Me.

mkjv@John:6:48 @ I am the Bread of life.

mkjv@John:6:50 @ This is the Bread which comes down from Heaven, so that a man may eat of it and not die.

mkjv@John:6:51 @ I am the Living Bread which came down from Heaven. If anyone eats of this Bread, he shall live forever. And truly the bread that I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

mkjv@John:6:53 @ Then Jesus says to them, Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink His blood, you do not have life in yourselves.

mkjv@John:6:54 @ Whoever partakes of My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.

mkjv@John:6:56 @ He who partakes of My flesh and drinks My blood dwells in Me, and I in him.

mkjv@John:6:57 @ As the living Father has sent Me, and I live through the Father, so he who partakes of Me, even he shall live by Me.

mkjv@John:6:58 @ This is the Bread which came down from Heaven, not as your fathers ate the manna, and died; he who partakes of this Bread shall live forever.

mkjv@John:6:60 @ Then when they had heard, many of His disciples said, This is a hard saying, who can hear it?

mkjv@John:6:61 @ But knowing in Himself that His disciples murmured about it, Jesus said to them, Does this offend you?

mkjv@John:6:62 @ Then [what] if you should see the Son of man going up where He was before?

mkjv@John:6:63 @ It is the Spirit that makes alive, the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit and are life.

mkjv@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 is the one] betraying Him.

mkjv@John:6:65 @ And He said, Because of this I said to you that no one can come to Me unless it was given to him from My Father.

mkjv@John:6:66 @ From this [time] many of His disciples went back into the things behind, and walked no more with Him.

mkjv@John:6:68 @ Then Simon Peter answered Him, Lord, to whom shall we go? You have [the] words of eternal life.

mkjv@John:6:69 @ And we have believed and have known that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.

mkjv@John:6:70 @ Jesus answered them, Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? And one [of] you is a devil?

mkjv@John:6:71 @ But he spoke [of] Judas Iscariot, [the son] of Simon; for it was he who was about to betray Him, being one of the Twelve.

mkjv@John:7:2 @ And the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near.

mkjv@John:7:7 @ The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it, that its works are evil.

mkjv@John:7:13 @ However, no one spoke openly of Him, because of the fear of the Jews.

mkjv@John:7:14 @ Now about the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

mkjv@John:7:17 @ If anyone desires to do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it is of God, or I speak from Myself.

mkjv@John:7:18 @ He who speaks of himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of Him who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.

mkjv@John:7:19 @ Did not Moses give you the law? And [yet] not one of you keeps the law! Why do you seek to kill Me?

mkjv@John:7:22 @ Because of this Moses gave you circumcision (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers,) and you circumcise a man on the sabbath day.

mkjv@John:7:23 @ If a man receives circumcision on the sabbath day so that the law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry at Me because I have made a man entirely sound on the sabbath day?

mkjv@John:7:25 @ Then some of those from Jerusalem said, Is this not the one they seek to kill?

mkjv@John:7:28 @ Then Jesus cried in the temple as He taught, saying, You both know Me, and you know from where I come. And I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

mkjv@John:7:31 @ And many of the crowd believed on Him, and said, When the Christ comes, will He do more miracles than these which this One has done?

mkjv@John:7:32 @ The Pharisees heard that the crowd murmured such things concerning Him. And the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to seize Him.

mkjv@John:7:35 @ Then the Jews said among themselves, Where is he about to go that we shall not find him? Is he about to go to the Dispersion of the Greeks, and to teach the Greeks?

mkjv@John:7:37 @ And in the last day of the great feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.

mkjv@John:7:38 @ He who believes on Me, as the Scripture has said, Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

mkjv@John:7:40 @ Then when they heard the Word, many of the people said, Truly this is the Prophet.

mkjv@John:7:41 @ Others said, This is the Christ. But others said, Does the Christ come out of Galilee?

mkjv@John:7:42 @ Has the Scripture not said that Christ comes from the seed of David and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

mkjv@John:7:43 @ So a division occurred in the crowd because of Him.

mkjv@John:7:44 @ And some of them desired to seize Him, but no one laid hands on Him.

mkjv@John:7:45 @ Then the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees. And they said to them, Why have you not brought him?

mkjv@John:7:46 @ The officers answered, Never did any man speak as does this Man.

mkjv@John:7:48 @ Is it not true that] not any of the rulers or of the Pharisees have believed into him?

mkjv@John:7:50 @ Nicodemus said to them, (he who came to Jesus [by] night, being one of them),

mkjv@John:7:52 @ They answered and said to him, Are you also from Galilee? Search the scriptures and see that a prophet has not been raised out of Galilee.

mkjv@John:8:1 @ But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

mkjv@John:8:12 @ Then Jesus spoke again to them, saying, I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

mkjv@John:8:17 @ It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true.

mkjv@John:8:18 @ I am one who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness concerning Me.

mkjv@John:8:23 @ And He said to them, You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

mkjv@John:8:26 @ I have many things to say and to judge of you, but He who sent Me is true, and I speak to the world those things what I heard of Him.

mkjv@John:8:27 @ They did not understand that He spoke to them [of] the Father.

mkjv@John:8:28 @ Then Jesus said to them, When you have lifted up the Son of man, then you shall know that I AM, and that I do nothing of Myself, but as My Father has taught Me, I speak these things.

mkjv@John:8:34 @ Jesus answered them, Truly, truly, I say to you, Whoever practices sin is the slave of sin.

mkjv@John:8:39 @ They answered and said to Him, Abraham is our father. Jesus answered them, If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.

mkjv@John:8:41 @ You do the deeds of your father. Then they said to Him, We are not born of fornication; we have one father, [even] God.

mkjv@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, If God were your father, you would love Me, for I went forth and came from God; for I did not come of Myself, but He sent Me.

mkjv@John:8:44 @ You are of the Devil as father, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from [the] beginning, and did not abide in the truth because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it.

mkjv@John:8:46 @ Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do you not believe Me?

mkjv@John:8:47 @ He who is of God hears God's words. Therefore you do not hear [them] because you are not of God.

mkjv@John:8:52 @ Then the Jews said to Him, Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham and the prophets are dead, and you say, If a man keeps my Word, he shall never taste of death.

mkjv@John:8:54 @ Jesus answered, If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say that He is your God.

mkjv@John:8:59 @ Then they took up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus hid Himself and went forth out of the temple, going through [the] midst of them, and passed on by.

mkjv@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, Neither has this man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God might be revealed in him.

mkjv@John:9:4 @ I must work the works of Him who sent Me, while it is day. Night comes when no man can work.

mkjv@John:9:5 @ As long as I am in the world, I am [the] Light of the world.

mkjv@John:9:6 @ And when He had spoken these things, He spat on the ground and made clay from the spittle. And He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

mkjv@John:9:7 @ And He said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (which translated is Sent). Therefore he went and washed and came seeing.

mkjv@John:9:11 @ He answered and said, A man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, Go to the pool of Siloam and wash. And going and washing, I received sight.

mkjv@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, a sinner, do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

mkjv@John:9:18 @ But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him having received sight.

mkjv@John:9:21 @ But by what means he now sees, we do not know. Or who has opened his eyes, we do not know. He is of age, ask him. He will speak for himself.

mkjv@John:9:22 @ His parents spoke these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed that He was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

mkjv@John:9:23 @ Therefore his parents said, He is of age, ask him.

mkjv@John:9:32 @ From everlasting it was not heard that anyone opened the eyes of one who was born blind.

mkjv@John:9:33 @ If this One were not of God, He could do nothing.

mkjv@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and finding him, He said to him, Do you believe on the Son of God?

mkjv@John:9:40 @ And [those] of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these words, and said to Him, Are we also blind?

mkjv@John:10:2 @ But he who enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

mkjv@John:10:5 @ And they will not follow a stranger, but will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.

mkjv@John:10:7 @ Then Jesus said to them again, Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

mkjv@John:10:16 @ And I have other sheep who are not of this fold. I must also lead those, and they shall hear My voice, and there shall be one flock, one Shepherd.

mkjv@John:10:19 @ Then a division occurred again among the Jews because of these words.

mkjv@John:10:20 @ And many of them said, He has a demon and is insane. Why do you hear him?

mkjv@John:10:21 @ Others said, These are not words of one who has been possessed by a demon. A demon is not able to open [the] eyes of blind ones.

mkjv@John:10:22 @ And [the Feast] of Dedication took place at Jerusalem, and it was winter.

mkjv@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, I told you and you did not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me.

mkjv@John:10:26 @ But you did not believe because you are not of My sheep. As I said to you,

mkjv@John:10:28 @ And I give to them eternal life, and they shall never ever perish, and not anyone shall pluck them out of My hand.

mkjv@John:10:29 @ My Father who gave [them] to me is greater than all, and no one is able to pluck [them] out of My Father's hand.

mkjv@John:10:32 @ Jesus answered them, I have shown you many good works from My Father; for which of these do you stone Me?

mkjv@John:10:35 @ If He called those gods with whom the Word of God was, and the Scripture cannot be broken,

mkjv@John:10:36 @ do you say [of Him] whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, You blaspheme, because I said, I am the Son of God?

mkjv@John:10:37 @ If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me.

mkjv@John:10:39 @ Then they again sought to seize Him, but He went forth out of their hand.

mkjv@John:11:1 @ And there was a certain sick one, Lazarus of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

mkjv@John:11:4 @ When Jesus heard, He said, This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, so that the Son of God might be glorified by it.

mkjv@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble because he sees the light of the world.

mkjv@John:11:11 @ He said these things; and after that He said to them, Our friend Lazarus sleeps. But I go so that I may awaken him out of sleep.

mkjv@John:11:13 @ But Jesus spoke of his death, but they thought that He had spoken of taking rest in sleep.

mkjv@John:11:19 @ And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary in order to comfort them concerning their brother.

mkjv@John:11:22 @ But I know that even now, whatever You will ask of God, God will give You.

mkjv@John:11:27 @ She said to Him, Yes, Lord, I have believed that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who has come into the world.

mkjv@John:11:37 @ And some of them said, Was not this Man who opened the eyes of the blind able also to cause that even this one should not have died?

mkjv@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him who died, said to Him, Lord, by this time he stinks. For it is [the] fourth [day].

mkjv@John:11:40 @ Jesus answered her, Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?

mkjv@John:11:42 @ And I know that You hear Me always, but because of the people who stand by I said [it], so that they may believe that You have sent Me.

mkjv@John:11:45 @ Then many of the Jews who came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on Him.

mkjv@John:11:46 @ But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

mkjv@John:11:49 @ And one of them, Caiaphas, being the high priest of that year, said to them, You do not know anything at all,

mkjv@John:11:51 @ And he did not speak this of himself, but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for the nation;

mkjv@John:11:52 @ and not for that nation only, but also that He should gather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad.

mkjv@John:11:55 @ And the Jews' Passover was near. And many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the Passover in order to purify themselves.

mkjv@John:12:2 @ Then they made a supper there for Him. And Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those reclining with Him.

mkjv@John:12:3 @ Then Mary took a pound of ointment of pure spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.

mkjv@John:12:4 @ Then said one of His disciples (Judas Iscariot, Simon's [son], who was to betray Him)

mkjv@John:12:7 @ Then Jesus said, Let her alone. She has kept this for the day of My burial.

mkjv@John:12:9 @ Then a great crowd of the Jews learned that He was there. And they did not come for Jesus' sake only, but also that they might see Lazarus, whom He had raised from [the] dead.

mkjv@John:12:11 @ because many of the Jews went away and believed on Jesus because of him.

mkjv@John:12:13 @ took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him. And [they] cried, Hosanna! Blessed [is] the King of Israel who comes in [the] name of [the] Lord!

mkjv@John:12:15 @ Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your King comes sitting on the foal of an ass.

mkjv@John:12:16 @ But His disciples did not know these things at the first. But when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of Him, and [that] they had done these things to Him.

mkjv@John:12:17 @ Then the crowd witnessed, those who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from [the] dead.

mkjv@John:12:18 @ Because of this the crowd also met Him, because they heard that He had done this miracle.

mkjv@John:12:21 @ Then these came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, Sir, we want to see Jesus.

mkjv@John:12:23 @ And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour has come that the Son of man should be glorified.

mkjv@John:12:24 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, Unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone; but if it dies, it brings forth much fruit.

mkjv@John:12:30 @ Jesus answered and said, This voice did not come because of Me, but for your sakes.

mkjv@John:12:31 @ Now is [the] judgment of this world. Now shall the prince of this world be cast out.

mkjv@John:12:33 @ But He said this, signifying what kind [of] death He was about to die.

mkjv@John:12:34 @ The crowd answered Him, We have heard out of the law that Christ lives forever. How do you say, The Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

mkjv@John:12:36 @ While you have the Light, believe in the Light so that you may become sons of Light. Jesus spoke these things and departed and was hidden from them.

mkjv@John:12:38 @ so that the saying of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

mkjv@John:12:41 @ Isaiah said these things when he saw His glory and spoke of Him.

mkjv@John:12:42 @ Still, however, even out of the rulers, many did believe on Him. But because of the Pharisees they did not confess, lest they should be put out of the synagogue;

mkjv@John:12:43 @ for they loved the glory of men more than the glory of God.

mkjv@John:12:49 @ For I have not spoken of Myself, but [the] Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say, and what I should speak.

mkjv@John:13:1 @ And before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come when He should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved [His] own in the world, He loved them to [the] end.

mkjv@John:13:2 @ And when supper had ended, the Devil now having put into the heart of Judas Iscariot [the son] of Simon to betray Him,

mkjv@John:13:18 @ I do not speak of you all; I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture might be fulfilled, He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.

mkjv@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had said this, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, Truly, truly, I say to you that one of you shall betray Me.

mkjv@John:13:22 @ Then the disciples looked upon one another, wondering of whom He spoke.

mkjv@John:13:23 @ But there was one of His disciples leaning upon Jesus' bosom, the one whom Jesus loved.

mkjv@John:13:24 @ Simon Peter therefore signaled to him to ask whom it might be of whom He spoke.

mkjv@John:13:26 @ Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give the morsel when I have dipped [it]. And dipping the morsel, He gave [it] to Judas Iscariot, the [son] of Simon.

mkjv@John:13:29 @ For some thought, because Judas had the moneybag, that Jesus had said to him, Buy what we have need [of] for the feast; or that he should give something to the poor.

mkjv@John:13:31 @ Then when he had left, Jesus said, Now the Son of man is glorified, and God is glorified in him.

mkjv@John:14:10 @ Do you not believe that I [am] in the Father and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak of Myself, but the Father who dwells in Me, He does the works.

mkjv@John:14:17 @ the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive because it does not see Him nor know Him. But you know Him, for He dwells with you and shall be in you.

mkjv@John:14:30 @ I shall no longer speak many things with you, for the ruler of this world comes, and he has nothing in Me.

mkjv@John:15:4 @ Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither [can] you unless you abide in Me.

mkjv@John:15:16 @ You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you and ordained you that you should go and bring forth fruit, and [that] your fruit should remain; that whatever you shall ask of the Father in My name, He may give it to you.

mkjv@John:15:19 @ If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

mkjv@John:15:26 @ And when the Comforter has come, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He shall testify of Me.

mkjv@John:16:1 @ I have spoken these things to you so that you should not be offended.

mkjv@John:16:2 @ They shall put you out of [the] synagogue. But an hour is coming that everyone who kills you will think that he bears God service.

mkjv@John:16:4 @ But I have told you these things so that when the hour shall come you may remember that I told you of them. And I did not say these things to you at the beginning because I was with you.

mkjv@John:16:5 @ But now I go to Him who sent Me, and none of you asks Me, Where do You go?

mkjv@John:16:11 @ concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

mkjv@John:16:13 @ However, when He, the Spirit of Truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth. For He shall not speak of Himself, but whatever He hears, He shall speak. And He will announce to you things to come.

mkjv@John:16:14 @ He will glorify Me, for He will receive of Mine and will announce [it] to you.

mkjv@John:16:15 @ All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore I said that He will take of Mine and will announce [it] to you.

mkjv@John:16:21 @ The woman has grief when she bears, because her hour has come. But when she brings forth the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, because of the joy that a man is born into the world.

mkjv@John:16:25 @ I have spoken these things to you in parables, but the time is coming when I shall no more speak to you in parables, but I will show you plainly of the Father.

mkjv@John:16:33 @ I have spoken these things to you so that you might have peace in Me. In the world you shall have tribulation, but be of good cheer. I have overcome the world.

mkjv@John:17:6 @ I have revealed Your name to the men whom You gave to Me out of the world. They were Yours, and You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.

mkjv@John:17:12 @ While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name. Those that You have given Me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled.

mkjv@John:17:14 @ I have given them Your Word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

mkjv@John:17:15 @ I do not pray for You to take them out of the world, but for You to keep them from the evil.

mkjv@John:17:16 @ They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

mkjv@John:17:24 @ Father, I desire that [those] whom You have given Me, that they may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me, for You have loved Me before [the] foundation of [the] world.

mkjv@John:18:2 @ And Judas who betrayed Him also knew the place. For Jesus oftentimes went there with His disciples.

mkjv@John:18:3 @ Then Judas, having received a band and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

mkjv@John:18:5 @ They answered Him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus said to them, I AM! And Judas who betrayed Him also stood with them.

mkjv@John:18:7 @ Then He asked them again, Whom do you seek? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

mkjv@John:18:9 @ (that the word might be fulfilled which He spoke, [Of] those whom You have given Me, I have lost not one of them).

mkjv@John:18:10 @ Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant and cut off his right ear. And the servant's name [was] Malchus.

mkjv@John:18:12 @ Then the band, and the chiliarch, and under-officers of the Jews together seized Jesus and bound Him.

mkjv@John:18:15 @ And Simon Peter and another disciple followed Jesus. That disciple was known to the high priest, and he went in with Jesus into the court of the high priest.

mkjv@John:18:17 @ Then the girl who kept the door said to Peter, Are you not also [one] of this man's disciples? He said, I am not.

mkjv@John:18:18 @ And 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.

mkjv@John:18:19 @ Then the high priest asked Jesus of His disciples and of His teaching.

mkjv@John:18:22 @ And when He had spoken this way, one of the officers who stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Do you answer the high priest so?

mkjv@John:18:23 @ Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why do you strike Me?

mkjv@John:18:25 @ And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. Then they said to him, Are you not also [one] of his disciples? He denied and said, I am not.

mkjv@John:18:26 @ One of the servants of the high priest, being kinsman to him whose ear Peter cut off, said, Did I not see you in the garden with him?

mkjv@John:18:32 @ (that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which He spoke signifying what death He was about to die).

mkjv@John:18:33 @ Then Pilate entered into the praetorium again and called Jesus and said to him, Are you the king of the Jews?

mkjv@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered him, Do you say this thing of yourself, or did others say it to you about Me?

mkjv@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, then My servants would fight so that I might not be delivered to the Jews. But now My kingdom is not from here.

mkjv@John:18:37 @ Pilate then said to Him, Are you a king then? Jesus answered, You say [it] that I am a king. To this [end] I was born, and for this cause I came into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice.

mkjv@John:18:39 @ But you have a custom that I should release one to you at the Passover. Then do you desire that I release to you the king of the Jews?

mkjv@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns and put [it] on His head. And they put a purple robe on Him,

mkjv@John:19:3 @ and said, Hail, King of the Jews! And they struck Him with their hands.

mkjv@John:19:5 @ Then Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And [Pilate] said to them, Behold the man!

mkjv@John:19:6 @ Then when the chief priests and under-officers saw Him, they cried out, saying, Crucify! Crucify [Him]! Pilate said to them, You take Him and crucify Him, for I find no fault in him.

mkjv@John:19:7 @ The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

mkjv@John:19:14 @ And it was [the] preparation of the Passover, and about [the] sixth hour. And he said to the Jews, Behold your king!

mkjv@John:19:17 @ And bearing His cross, He went out to a place called, [The Place] of a Skull (which is called in the Hebrew, Golgotha)

mkjv@John:19:19 @ And Pilate wrote a title and put [it] on the cross. And the writing was, JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

mkjv@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.

mkjv@John:19:21 @ Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate, Do not write, the king of the Jews, but that he said, I am king of the Jews.

mkjv@John:19:25 @ And His mother stood by the cross of Jesus, and His mother's sister, Mary the [wife] of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.

mkjv@John:19:29 @ Then a vessel full of vinegar was set. And they filled a sponge with sour wine and put [it] upon hyssop, and put [it] to His mouth.

mkjv@John:19:32 @ Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who was crucified with Him.

mkjv@John:19:34 @ But one of the soldiers pierced His side [with] a lance, and instantly there came out blood and water.

mkjv@John:19:36 @ For these things were done so that the Scripture might be fulfilled, Not a bone of Him shall be broken.

mkjv@John:19:38 @ And after these things, Joseph of Arimathea, being a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews) begged of Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus. And Pilate gave permission. Then he came and took the body of Jesus.

mkjv@John:19:39 @ And Nicodemus also came, who at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds.

mkjv@John:19:40 @ Then they took the body of Jesus and wound it with linens with the spices, as is the custom of the Jews to bury.

mkjv@John:19:42 @ There, then, because of the Preparation of the Jews, because the tomb was near, they laid Jesus.

mkjv@John:20:1 @ The first of the sabbaths Mary Magdalene came early to the tomb, darkness still being [on it], and [she] saw the stone taken away from the tomb.

mkjv@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.

mkjv@John:20:11 @ But Mary stood outside of the tomb, weeping. And as she wept, she stooped down into the tomb.

mkjv@John:20:12 @ And [she] saw two angels in white sitting there, the one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

mkjv@John:20:19 @ Then the same day at evening, being the first of the sabbaths, 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 to you!

mkjv@John:20:23 @ Of whomever sins you remit, they are remitted to them. Of whomever [sins] you retain, they are retained.

mkjv@John:20:24 @ But Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came.

mkjv@John:20:25 @ The other disciples therefore said to him, We have seen the Lord. But he said to them, Unless I shall see the print of the nails in His hands, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into His side, I will not believe.

mkjv@John:20:30 @ And truly Jesus did many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book.

mkjv@John:20:31 @ But these are written so that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you might have life in His name.

mkjv@John:21:1 @ After these things Jesus revealed Himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias. And He revealed [Himself] this way:

mkjv@John:21:2 @ Simon Peter, and Thomas called [the] Twin, and Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, and the [sons] of Zebedee, and two others of His disciples were together.

mkjv@John:21:6 @ And He said to them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat and you will find. Therefore they cast, and now they no longer had [the] strength to draw, from the multitude of fish.

mkjv@John:21:8 @ And the other disciples came in a little boat (for they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits), dragging the net of fish.

mkjv@John:21:9 @ Then when they went up on the land, they saw a fire of coals there, and a fish lying on [it], and bread.

mkjv@John:21:11 @ Simon Peter went up and drew the net to land, full of big fish, a hundred and fifty-three. And [though] there were so many, the net was not torn.

mkjv@John:21:12 @ Jesus said to them, Come, break fast. And none of the disciples dared to ask Him, Who are You? knowing that it was the Lord.

mkjv@John:21:15 @ Then when they broke fast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, [son] of Jonah, do you love Me more than these? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Feed My lambs.

mkjv@John:21:16 @ He said to him the second time, Simon, [son] of Jonah, do you love Me? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Feed My sheep.

mkjv@John:21:17 @ He said to him the third time, Simon, [son] of Jonah, do you love Me? Peter was grieved because He said to him a third [time], Do you love Me? And he said to Him, Lord, You know all things, You know that I love You. Jesus said to him, Feed My sheep.

mkjv@John:21:21 @ Seeing him, Peter said to Jesus, Lord, and what [of] this one?

mkjv@John:21:24 @ This is the disciple who testifies of these things and wrote these things. And we know that his testimony is true.

mkjv@Acts:1:3 @ to whom He also presented Himself living after His suffering by many infallible proofs, being seen by them through forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Acts:1:4 @ And having met with [them], He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to await the promise of the Father which you heard from Me.

mkjv@Acts:1:8 @ But you shall receive power, the Holy Spirit coming upon you. And you shall be witnesses to Me both in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and in Samaria, and to [the] end of the earth.

mkjv@Acts:1:9 @ And saying these things, [as] they watched, He was taken up. And a cloud received Him out of their sight.

mkjv@Acts:1:11 @ who also said, Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into the heaven? This same Jesus who is taken up from you into Heaven, will come in the way you have seen Him going into Heaven.

mkjv@Acts:1:12 @ Then they returned to Jerusalem from [the] mount Of Olive Grove, which is a sabbath day's [journey] from Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:1:13 @ And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, where Peter and James, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James [the son] of Alpheus and Simon Zelotes, and Judas [the brother] of James;

mkjv@Acts:1:14 @ these all were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with [the] women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.

mkjv@Acts:1:15 @ And in those days Peter stood up in [the] midst of the disciples and said, ( the] number of names together [was] about a hundred and twenty,)

mkjv@Acts:1:16 @ Men, brothers, this Scripture must have been fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit by the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, who became guide to those who seized Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:1:17 @ For he was numbered with us and had obtained part of this ministry.

mkjv@Acts:1:18 @ Indeed, then, this one purchased a field with the reward of unrighteousness. And falling headlong, he burst apart in [the] middle, and all his bowels gushed out.

mkjv@Acts:1:19 @ And it was known to all the dwellers at Jerusalem, so much so that that field is called in their own dialect, Akeldama, that is to say, Field of Blood.

mkjv@Acts:1:20 @ For it is written in [the] Book of Psalms, Let his estate become forsaken, and he not be living in it. And, Let another take his overseership.

mkjv@Acts:1:21 @ Therefore, it is right that one of these men who have companied with us all [the] time that the Lord Jesus came in and went out among us,

mkjv@Acts:1:22 @ beginning from the baptism of John to that same day that He was taken up from us, to become a witness with us of His resurrection.

mkjv@Acts:1:24 @ And they prayed and said, You, Lord, knower of all hearts, show which one You chose from these two,

mkjv@Acts:1:25 @ to take the share of this ministry and apostleship from which Judas fell, to go to [his] own place.

mkjv@Acts:2:1 @ And in the fulfilling of the day of Pentecost, they were all with one accord in one place.

mkjv@Acts:2:2 @ And suddenly a sound came out of the heaven as borne along by the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

mkjv@Acts:2:3 @ And tongues as of fire appeared to them, being distributed; and it sat upon each of them.

mkjv@Acts:2:4 @ And they were all filled of the Holy Spirit, and began to speak in other languages, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

mkjv@Acts:2:5 @ And dwelling at Jerusalem there were Jews, devout men out of every nation under heaven.

mkjv@Acts:2:10 @ Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya around Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,

mkjv@Acts:2:11 @ Cretans and Arabians, we hear them speaking the great things of God in our own languages.

mkjv@Acts:2:13 @ But others mocking said, These men are full of sweet wine.

mkjv@Acts:2:15 @ For these are not drunk as you suppose, for it is [the] third hour of the day.

mkjv@Acts:2:17 @ And it shall be in the last days, says God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams.

mkjv@Acts:2:19 @ And I will give wonders in the heaven above, and miracles on the earth below, blood and fire and vapor of smoke.

mkjv@Acts:2:20 @ The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious Day of the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:2:21 @ And it shall be [that] everyone who shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

mkjv@Acts:2:22 @ Men, Israelites, hear these words. Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by powerful works, and wonders and miracles, which God did through Him in your midst, as you yourselves also know,

mkjv@Acts:2:23 @ this One given [to you] by the before-determined counsel and foreknowledge of God, [you] have taken and by lawless hands, crucifying [Him], you put Him to death;

mkjv@Acts:2:24 @ whom God raised up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that He should be held by it.

mkjv@Acts:2:28 @ You revealed to Me the ways of life. You will fill Me with joy with Your countenance.

mkjv@Acts:2:30 @ Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of [the] fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, He would raise up Christ to sit upon his throne,

mkjv@Acts:2:31 @ seeing this beforehand, he spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that His soul was not left in Hades, nor would His flesh see corruption,

mkjv@Acts:2:32 @ God raised up this Jesus, of which we all are witnesses.

mkjv@Acts:2:33 @ Therefore being exalted to the right of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He has poured out this which you now see and hear.

mkjv@Acts:2:36 @ Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God made this same Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ.

mkjv@Acts:2:38 @ Then Peter said to them, Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ to remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:2:39 @ For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all those afar off, as many as [the] Lord our God shall call.

mkjv@Acts:2:42 @ And they were continuing steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine, and in fellowship and in the breaking of the loaves, and in prayers.

mkjv@Acts:2:46 @ And continuing with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they shared food with gladness and simplicity of heart,

mkjv@Acts:3:1 @ And on the same [day] Peter and John went up into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth [hour].

mkjv@Acts:3:6 @ But Peter said, Silver and gold have I none, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!

mkjv@Acts:3:10 @ And they recognized him, that it was him who sat for alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. And they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

mkjv@Acts:3:13 @ The God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His son Jesus, whom you delivered up, denying Him in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to let [Him] go.

mkjv@Acts:3:15 @ And you killed the Prince of Life, whom God has raised from [the] dead, of which we are witnesses.

mkjv@Acts:3:18 @ But those things which God before had shown by the mouth of all His prophets, [that] Christ should suffer, He fulfilled in this manner.

mkjv@Acts:3:19 @ Therefore repent and convert so that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from [the] presence of the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:3:21 @ whom Heaven truly needs to receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God has spoken by [the] mouth of His holy prophets since the world began.

mkjv@Acts:3:24 @ And also all the prophets from Samuel and those following after, as many as spoke, have likewise foretold of these days.

mkjv@Acts:3:25 @ You are the sons of the prophets and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, And in your Seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.

mkjv@Acts:3:26 @ Having raised up His son Jesus, God sent Him to you first, to bless you in turning every one of you away from his iniquities.

mkjv@Acts:4:4 @ But many of those who heard the Word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.

mkjv@Acts:4:6 @ and Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest.

mkjv@Acts:4:8 @ Then Peter, filled with [the] Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people and elders of Israel,

mkjv@Acts:4:10 @ be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from [the] dead, in this [name] does this man stand before you whole.

mkjv@Acts:4:11 @ This is the Stone which you builders have counted worthless, and He has become the Head of [the] Corner.

mkjv@Acts:4:13 @ But seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and perceiving that they were unlearned and uneducated men, they marveled. And they recognized them, that they had been with Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:4:15 @ And when they had commanded them to go aside out of the sanhedrin, they conferred among themselves,

mkjv@Acts:4:18 @ And they called them and commanded them not to speak at all, nor to teach in the name of Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:4:21 @ So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding no way [as to] how they might punish them, because of the people. For all glorified God for that which was done.

mkjv@Acts:4:22 @ For the man on whom this miracle of healing occurred was more than forty years [old].

mkjv@Acts:4:25 @ who by the mouth of Your servant David has said, Why did the nations rage and the people imagine vain things?

mkjv@Acts:4:26 @ The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord and against His Christ.

mkjv@Acts:4:27 @ For truly, against Your holy child Jesus, whom You have anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the nations, and [the] people of Israel, were gathered together

mkjv@Acts:4:30 @ by stretching forth of Your hand for healing, and miracles, and wonders may be done by the name of Your holy child Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:4:31 @ And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled was shaken. And they were all filled with [the] Holy Spirit, and they spoke the Word of God with boldness.

mkjv@Acts:4:32 @ And the multitude of those who believed were of one heart and one soul. And not one said that any of the things which he possessed was his own. But they had all things common.

mkjv@Acts:4:33 @ And the apostles gave witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus with great power. And great grace was on them all.

mkjv@Acts:4:34 @ For neither was anyone needy among them, for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold [them] and brought the prices of the [things] that were sold,

mkjv@Acts:4:36 @ And Joses, who was surnamed Barnabas by the apostles (which is, being translated, The son of consolation), a Levite, a Cypriot by race,

mkjv@Acts:5:2 @ And he kept back [part] of the price, his wife also knowing, and brought a certain part and laid [it] at the apostles' feet.

mkjv@Acts:5:3 @ But Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart [for] you to lie to the Holy Spirit, and to keep back [part] of the price of the land?

mkjv@Acts:5:7 @ And it was about the space of three hours afterward, when his wife (not knowing what was done) came in.

mkjv@Acts:5:9 @ Then Peter said to her, How [is it] that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of [the] Lord? Behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband [are] at the door and they will carry you out.

mkjv@Acts:5:12 @ And many miracles and wonders were done among the people by the hands of the apostles; and they were all with one accord in Solomon's Porch.

mkjv@Acts:5:13 @ And of the rest no one dared to join himself to them, but the people magnified them;

mkjv@Acts:5:14 @ and more believing ones were added to [the] Lord, multitudes both of men and women;

mkjv@Acts:5:15 @ So as to carry out the sick into the streets and place [them] on cots and mattresses, so that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.

mkjv@Acts:5:17 @ And rising up, the high priest, and all those who were with him (which is the [sect] of the Sadducees) were filled with anger,

mkjv@Acts:5:19 @ But the angel of [the] Lord opened the prison doors by night and brought them out, and said,

mkjv@Acts:5:20 @ Go! Stand and speak all the words of this Life to the people in the temple.

mkjv@Acts:5:21 @ And hearing, they went into the temple about dawn, and taught. But the high priest came, and those with him. And they called the sanhedrin together, and all the elderhood of the sons of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.

mkjv@Acts:5:22 @ But having come near, the officers did not find them in the prison. And returning, reported,

mkjv@Acts:5:23 @ saying, We indeed found the prison shut with all safety, and the keepers standing outside in front of the doors. But having opened it, we found no one inside.

mkjv@Acts:5:26 @ Then the commander went with the officers [and] brought them, not with force, for they feared the people, lest they should be stoned.

mkjv@Acts:5:30 @ The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you killed and hanged on a tree.

mkjv@Acts:5:31 @ This One God [has] exalted [to be] a Ruler and Savior to His right [hand] in order to give repentance and remission of sins to Israel.

mkjv@Acts:5:32 @ And we are His witnesses of these things. And [so] also [is] the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who obey Him.

mkjv@Acts:5:34 @ Then there stood up one in the sanhedrin, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law honored among all the people. And he commanded the apostles to be put outside a little space.

mkjv@Acts:5:35 @ And he said to them, Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do [regarding] these men.

mkjv@Acts:5:36 @ For before these days Theudas rose up, boasting himself to be somebody; a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves to him; who was slain. And all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered and brought to nothing.

mkjv@Acts:5:37 @ After this one, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the Registration, and drew away considerable people after him. Yet that one perished; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered.

mkjv@Acts:5:38 @ And now I say to you, withdraw from these men and let them alone. For if this counsel or this work is of men, it will come to nothing.

mkjv@Acts:5:39 @ But if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it, lest perhaps you be found even to fight against God.

mkjv@Acts:5:40 @ And they obeyed him. And calling the apostles, beating [them], they commanded not to speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.

mkjv@Acts:5:41 @ Then indeed they departed from [the] presence of the sanhedrin, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to be shamed for His name.

mkjv@Acts:6:1 @ And in those days, the disciples having multiplied, a murmuring of the Hellenists against the Hebrews occurred, because their widows were overlooked in the daily serving.

mkjv@Acts:6:2 @ And the Twelve called near the multitude of the disciples and said, It is not pleasing to us, leaving the Word of God, to serve tables.

mkjv@Acts:6:3 @ Therefore, brothers, look out among you seven [men] being witnessed to, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this duty.

mkjv@Acts:6:4 @ But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the Word.

mkjv@Acts:6:5 @ And the saying pleased all the multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of [the] Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicholas, a proselyte of Antioch.

mkjv@Acts:6:7 @ And the word of God was increasing. And the number of the disciples in Jerusalem was multiplying exceedingly; even a great crowd of the priests obeyed the faith.

mkjv@Acts:6:8 @ And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.

mkjv@Acts:6:9 @ Then there arose certain of the synagogue which is called [the synagogue] of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia and from Asia, disputing with Stephen.

mkjv@Acts:6:14 @ For we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered to us.

mkjv@Acts:6:15 @ And looking intently at him. all those sitting in the sanhedrin saw his face as if [it were the] face of an angel.

mkjv@Acts:7:2 @ And he said, Men, brothers, and fathers, listen: The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran.

mkjv@Acts:7:4 @ Then he came out of [the] land of the Chaldeans and lived in Haran. And from there, when his father was dead, he moved into this land in which you now dwell.

mkjv@Acts:7:8 @ And He gave him the covenant of circumcision. And so [Abraham] fathered Isaac and circumcised him the eighth day. And Isaac [fathered] Jacob, and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.

mkjv@Acts:7:9 @ And being jealous of Joseph, the patriarchs sold [Joseph] into Egypt. But God was with him

mkjv@Acts:7:10 @ and plucked him out from all his afflictions, and He gave him favor and wisdom over against Pharaoh king of Egypt. And he appointed him governor over Egypt and all his household.

mkjv@Acts:7:11 @ But a famine came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and a great affliction. And our fathers found no food.

mkjv@Acts:7:16 @ and were carried over into Shechem. And they were laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price of silver from the sons of Emmor [the father] of Shechem.

mkjv@Acts:7:17 @ But as the time was drawing near, of the promise which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

mkjv@Acts:7:22 @ And Moses was learned in all [the] wisdom of the Egyptians and was mighty in words and in deeds.

mkjv@Acts:7:23 @ And when a period of forty years was fulfilled to him, it arose in his heart to look upon his brothers, the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Acts:7:29 @ And Moses fled at this word, and became a temporary resident in the land of Midian, where he fathered two sons.

mkjv@Acts:7:30 @ And forty years being fulfilled to him, [the] Angel of [the] Lord appeared to him in the desert of Mount Sinai in a flame of fire in a bush.

mkjv@Acts:7:31 @ And seeing [it], Moses marveled at the sight. And as he drew near to see, the voice of [the] Lord came to him:

mkjv@Acts:7:32 @ [saying], I [am] the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. But Moses trembled and dared not look.

mkjv@Acts:7:34 @ I have seen, the affliction of My people in Egypt, and I have heard their groan; and I came down to pluck them out. And now come, I will send you into Egypt.

mkjv@Acts:7:35 @ This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made you a ruler and a judge? God has sent this one [to be] a ruler and a redeemer by [the] hand of [the] Angel who appeared to him in the Bush.

mkjv@Acts:7:36 @ He brought them out after he had worked wonders and miracles in [the] land of Egypt and in [the] Red Sea and in the wilderness forty years.

mkjv@Acts:7:37 @ This is that Moses who said to the sons of Israel, The] Lord your God shall raise up a Prophet to you from your brothers, [One] like me; you shall hear Him.

mkjv@Acts:7:40 @ saying to Aaron, Make us gods to go before us, for [as for] this Moses who brought us out of [the] land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.

mkjv@Acts:7:41 @ And they made a calf in those days and offered sacrifice to the idol and rejoiced in the work of their own hands.

mkjv@Acts:7:42 @ Then God turned and gave them over to serve the host of the heavens, as it is written in [the] book of the Prophets: O house of Israel, have you offered to Me slain beasts and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness?

mkjv@Acts:7:43 @ Yea, you took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, images which you made in order to worship them; and I will remove you beyond Babylon.

mkjv@Acts:7:44 @ The tabernacle of witness was among our fathers in the wilderness, as commanded [by God], speaking to Moses to make it according to the pattern that he had seen.

mkjv@Acts:7:45 @ Which also having received it by inheritance with Joshua, our fathers, with Joshua, in taking possession of the nations whom God drove out before the face of our fathers until the days of David,

mkjv@Acts:7:46 @ who found favor with God and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob;

mkjv@Acts:7:49 @ Heaven [is] My throne and earth [is] My footstool. What house will you build Me, says [the] Lord, or what [is] the place of My rest?

mkjv@Acts:7:52 @ Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who foretold the coming of the Just One, of whom you have now been the betrayers and murderers;

mkjv@Acts:7:53 @ who received the Law through disposition of angels, and did not keep [it.]

mkjv@Acts:7:55 @ But being full of [the] Holy Spirit, looking up intently into Heaven, he saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.

mkjv@Acts:7:56 @ And [he] said, Behold, I see Heaven opened and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.

mkjv@Acts:7:58 @ And throwing [him] outside the city, they stoned [him]. And the witnesses laid their clothes down at the feet of a young man named Saul.

mkjv@Acts:8:1 @ And Saul was consenting to his death. And in that day there was a great persecution on the church at Jerusalem, and all were scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.

mkjv@Acts:8:5 @ And Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed Christ to them.

mkjv@Acts:8:7 @ For out of those having unclean spirits, many came out, crying with loud voice. And many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.

mkjv@Acts:8:9 @ But a certain man called Simon had long been conjuring in the city, and amazing the nation of Samaria, claiming himself to be some great one.

mkjv@Acts:8:10 @ All gave heed to [him], from the least to the greatest, saying, This one is the great power of God.

mkjv@Acts:8:12 @ But when they believed Philip preaching the gospel, the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.

mkjv@Acts:8:14 @ And the apostles in Jerusalem hearing that Samaria had received the Word of God, they sent Peter and John to them;

mkjv@Acts:8:16 @ For as yet He had not fallen on any of them, they were baptized only in the name of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:8:18 @ And when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through laying on of the apostles' hands, he offered them money,

mkjv@Acts:8:20 @ But Peter said to him, May your silver perish with you, because you have thought that the gift of God may be purchased with money.

mkjv@Acts:8:21 @ You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart is not right in the sight of God.

mkjv@Acts:8:22 @ Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.

mkjv@Acts:8:23 @ For I see that you are in [the] gall of bitterness and [in] the bond of iniquity.

mkjv@Acts:8:24 @ And answering Simon said, You pray to the Lord for me that none of these things which you have spoken may come on me.

mkjv@Acts:8:25 @ Then, indeed, having earnestly testified and having spoken the Word of the Lord also having preached the gospel [to] many villages of the Samaritans, they returned to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:8:26 @ And the angel of [the] Lord spoke to Philip, saying, Arise and go toward the south, on the way that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza, which is a deserted [place].

mkjv@Acts:8:27 @ And he arose and went. And behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had charge of all her treasure and had come to Jerusalem to worship,

mkjv@Acts:8:32 @ And the content of the Scripture which he read was this: He was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so He opened not His mouth.

mkjv@Acts:8:34 @ And the eunuch answered Philip and said, I beg you, of whom does the prophet speak this? Of himself or of some other man?

mkjv@Acts:8:35 @ Then Philip opened his mouth and began at the same Scripture and preached the gospel of Jesus to him.

mkjv@Acts:8:37 @ Philip said, If you believe with all your heart, it is lawful. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.

mkjv@Acts:8:39 @ And when they had come up out of the water, [the] Spirit of [the] Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more. And he went on his way rejoicing.

mkjv@Acts:9:1 @ And Saul, still breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest

mkjv@Acts:9:2 @ and asked letters from him to Damascus to the synagogues; so that if he found any of the Way, whether they were men or women, he might bring [them] bound to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:9:11 @ And the Lord [said] to him, Arise and go into the street which is called Straight and inquire in [the] house of Judas for [one] called Saul of Tarsus. For behold, he is praying,

mkjv@Acts:9:13 @ And Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard from many of this man, how many evil things he has done to Your saints at Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:9:15 @ But the Lord said to him, Go! For this one is a chosen vessel to Me, to bear My name before nations and kings and the sons of Israel.

mkjv@Acts:9:20 @ And immediately he proclaimed Christ in the synagogues, that He is the Son of God.

mkjv@Acts:9:26 @ And arriving in Jerusalem, Saul attempted to join himself to the disciples. But they were all afraid of him, and did not believe that he was a disciple.

mkjv@Acts:9:27 @ But Barnabas took him and brought [him] to the apostles and told them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that He had spoken to him, and how he had spoken boldly in Damascus in the name of Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:9:29 @ And he spoke boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, and argued with the Hellenists. But they seized him in order to kill him.

mkjv@Acts:9:31 @ Then, indeed, the churches had rest throughout all Judea and Galilee and Samaria, and having been built up. And having gone on in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they [were] increased.

mkjv@Acts:9:36 @ And in Joppa was a certain disciple named Tabitha (which translated is called Dorcas). She was full of good works and kind deeds which she did.

mkjv@Acts:10:1 @ And a certain man named Cornelius was in Caesarea, a centurion of the Italian cohort,

mkjv@Acts:10:3 @ About the ninth hour of the day he saw plainly in a vision an angel of God coming to him and saying to him, Cornelius!

mkjv@Acts:10:7 @ And when the angel who spoke to Cornelius departed, he called two of his servants and a devout soldier from those who waited on him continually.

mkjv@Acts:10:12 @ in which were all the four-footed animals of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the reptiles, and the birds of the heaven.

mkjv@Acts:10:22 @ And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man and [one] who fears God, and one of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by a holy angel to send for you to come to his house and to hear words from you.

mkjv@Acts:10:28 @ And he said to them, You know that it is an unlawful thing for a man, a Jew to keep company with or to come near to one of another nation. But God has shown me not to call any man common or unclean.

mkjv@Acts:10:32 @ Therefore send to Joppa and call here Simon whose last name is Peter, he is staying in [the] house of Simon, a tanner by the seaside; who, when he comes, shall speak to you.

mkjv@Acts:10:34 @ Then Peter opened [his] mouth and said, Truly I see that God is no respecter of persons;

mkjv@Acts:10:36 @ You know the word which [God] sent to the sons of Israel, preaching the gospel of peace by Jesus Christ (He is Lord of all!);

mkjv@Acts:10:38 @ how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with [the] Holy Spirit and with power, and He went about doing good, and healing all those who were oppressed by the Devil, for God was with Him.

mkjv@Acts:10:39 @ And we are witnesses of all things which He did, both in the land of the Jews and in Jerusalem. They killed [Him] and hanged [Him] on a tree;

mkjv@Acts:10:42 @ And He commanded us to preach to the people, and to testify that it is He who was ordained of God [to be] the Judge of [the] living and [the] dead.

mkjv@Acts:10:43 @ All the prophets give witness to Him, [that] through His name whoever believes in Him [shall] receive remission of sins.

mkjv@Acts:10:45 @ And those of the circumcision, who believed (as many as came with Peter), were astonished because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out on the nations also.

mkjv@Acts:10:48 @ And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they begged him to stay certain days.

mkjv@Acts:11:1 @ And the apostles and brothers who were in Judea heard that the nations had also received the Word of God.

mkjv@Acts:11:2 @ And when Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him,

mkjv@Acts:11:5 @ I was in [the] city of Joppa praying. And in an ecstasy I saw a vision, a certain vessel like a sheet coming down, let down from the sky by four corners. And it came even to me.

mkjv@Acts:11:6 @ When I had fastened my eyes on [it], I looked and saw four-footed animals of the earth, and wild beasts, and reptiles, and birds of the heaven.

mkjv@Acts:11:16 @ And I remembered the Word of the Lord, how He said, John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized with [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Acts:11:20 @ And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene; who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Hellenists, preaching the gospel of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:11:21 @ And [the] hand of [the] Lord was with them, and a great number believed and turned to the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:11:22 @ And the Word was heard in the ears of the church in Jerusalem. And they sent out Barnabas, that he should go as far as Antioch;

mkjv@Acts:11:23 @ who was glad when he had come and had seen the grace of God. And he exhorted all with purpose of heart to remain near to the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:11:24 @ For he was a good man and full of [the] Holy Spirit and faith. And many people were added to the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:11:28 @ And one of them named Agabus stood up and signified by the Spirit that there should be great famine over the world (which also happened in the [days] of Claudius Caesar).

mkjv@Acts:11:29 @ And the disciples, as any were prospered, determined each of them to send for ministry to those brothers who lived in Judea,

mkjv@Acts:11:30 @ which they also did, sending to the elders by [the] hand of Barnabas and Saul.

mkjv@Acts:12:1 @ And at that time Herod the king threw on [his] hands to oppress some of those of the church.

mkjv@Acts:12:2 @ And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

mkjv@Acts:12:3 @ And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he went further to seize Peter also. (And they were days of Unleavened [Bread].)

mkjv@Acts:12:4 @ And capturing [him], he put [him] in prison, and delivered [him] to four sets of four soldiers to keep him; intending to bring him out to the people after the Passover.

mkjv@Acts:12:7 @ And behold! An angel of [the] Lord stood by, and a light shone in the building. And striking Peter's side, he raised him up, saying, Rise up quickly! And his chains fell off his hands.

mkjv@Acts:12:10 @ When they were past the first and second guard, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord. And they went out and passed on through one street. And immediately the angel departed from him.

mkjv@Acts:12:11 @ And having come to himself, Peter said, Now I know surely that [the] Lord has sent His angel and has delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and [from] all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:12:12 @ And thinking [about it], he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose last name was Mark; where many had gathered together to pray.

mkjv@Acts:12:13 @ And as Peter knocked [at] the door of the porch, a girl named Rhoda came to listen.

mkjv@Acts:12:14 @ And when she knew Peter's voice, she did not open the porch because of gladness, but running in she reported Peter [was] standing before the porch.

mkjv@Acts:12:17 @ But, waving to them with his hand to be quiet, 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 brothers. And he departed and went into another place.

mkjv@Acts:12:18 @ And day coming, there was not a little stir among the soldiers, saying, What, then, became of Peter.

mkjv@Acts:12:20 @ And Herod was in bitter hostility with the men of Tyre and Sidon. But they came to him with one accord and, having made Blastus (who had charge of the king's bedroom) their friend, desired peace, because their country was fed by the king's [country].

mkjv@Acts:12:22 @ And the people gave a shout, [saying, It is] the voice of a god and not of a man!

mkjv@Acts:12:23 @ And immediately the angel of [the] Lord struck him, because he did not give God the glory. And he was eaten by worms and gave up the spirit.

mkjv@Acts:12:24 @ But the Word of God grew and increased.

mkjv@Acts:13:1 @ And in Antioch some among the existing church were prophets and teachers. (such as Barnabas, and Simeon who was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, the foster-brother of Herod the tetrarch) and Saul.

mkjv@Acts:13:5 @ And when they were at Salamis, they announced the Word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they also had John as an assistant.

mkjv@Acts:13:7 @ who was with the proconsul of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man. He called for Barnabas and Saul and asked to hear the Word of God.

mkjv@Acts:13:10 @ and said, O son of the Devil, full of all deceit and all craftiness, enemy of all righteousness, will you not stop perverting the right ways of [the] Lord?

mkjv@Acts:13:11 @ And now, behold, [the] hand of the Lord [is] on you. And you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a while. And immediately a mist and a darkness fell on him, and he went about seeking [some to] lead him by the hand.

mkjv@Acts:13:12 @ Then, seeing the thing happening, the proconsul believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:13:13 @ And Paul and those around [him] sailed from Paphos and came to Perga of Pamphylia. And John left them and returned to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:13:15 @ And after the reading of the Law and the Prophets, the rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brothers, if you have any word of comfort for the people, speak.

mkjv@Acts:13:17 @ The God of this people Israel chose our fathers and exalted the people in their residency in [the] land [of] Egypt, and He brought them out of it with a high arm.

mkjv@Acts:13:18 @ And about the time of forty years He tenderly bore them in the wilderness.

mkjv@Acts:13:19 @ And when He had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave their land to them as an inheritance.

mkjv@Acts:13:21 @ And afterward they asked [for] a king. And God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of [the] tribe of Benjamin, [for] forty years.

mkjv@Acts:13:22 @ And when He had removed him, He raised up David to them to be their king; to whom He also witnessed and said, I have found David the [son] of Jesse [to be] a man after My own heart, who shall fulfill all My will.

mkjv@Acts:13:23 @ Of this [man's] seed God has raised to Israel, according to [His] promise, a Savior, Jesus;

mkjv@Acts:13:24 @ John having before proclaimed the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel, before His coming.

mkjv@Acts:13:25 @ And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Who do you think that I am? I am not [He]. But behold, One comes after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.

mkjv@Acts:13:26 @ Men, brothers, sons of [the] race of Abraham, and whoever among you fears God, the word of this salvation is sent to you.

mkjv@Acts:13:27 @ For those living in Jerusalem, and their rulers, not having known this One, and the voices of the prophets being read throughout every sabbath, condemning [Him], they fulfilled [the Scriptures].

mkjv@Acts:13:28 @ And finding not one cause of death [in Him], they begged Pilate to do away with Him.

mkjv@Acts:13:34 @ And that He raised Him up from [the] dead, no more to return to corruption, He spoke in this way: I will give you the holy promises of David.

mkjv@Acts:13:36 @ For after he had served [his] own generation by the will of God, David fell asleep and was added to his fathers and saw corruption.

mkjv@Acts:13:38 @ Therefore be it known to you, men, brothers, that through this One the forgiveness of sins is announced to you.

mkjv@Acts:13:39 @ And by Him all who believe are justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.

mkjv@Acts:13:40 @ Therefore beware lest that come on you which is spoken of in the prophets:

mkjv@Acts:13:42 @ And the Jews having gone out of the synagogue, the nations begged that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.

mkjv@Acts:13:43 @ And the synagogue being broken up, many of the Jews and of the devout proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.

mkjv@Acts:13:44 @ And on the coming sabbath day almost all the city came together to hear the Word of God.

mkjv@Acts:13:46 @ But speaking boldly, Paul and Barnabas said, It was necessary [for] the word of God to be spoken to you first. But since indeed you put it far from you and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:13:47 @ For so the Lord has commanded us, [saying], I have set You to be a light of the nations, for salvation to the end of the earth.

mkjv@Acts:13:48 @ And hearing, the nations rejoiced and glorified the Word of the Lord. And as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.

mkjv@Acts:13:49 @ And the Word of the Lord was carried throughout all the country.

mkjv@Acts:13:50 @ But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief ones of the city, and raised a persecution against Paul and Barnabas. And they threw them out of their borders.

mkjv@Acts:13:51 @ But shaking the dust of their feet off on them, they came into Iconium.

mkjv@Acts:14:1 @ And it happened in Iconium, they both went together into the synagogue of the Jews, and spoke so as a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.

mkjv@Acts:14:3 @ Therefore they stayed a long time, speaking boldly in the Lord, who bore witness to the word of His grace, giving miracles and wonders to be done by their hands.

mkjv@Acts:14:4 @ But the multitude of the city was divided. And part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.

mkjv@Acts:14:6 @ they were aware of [it] and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the country around them.

mkjv@Acts:14:13 @ And the priest of Jupiter, being before their city, brought oxen and garlands to the gates, wishing to sacrifice with the crowds.

mkjv@Acts:14:15 @ and saying, Men, why do you do these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preaching the gospel to you to turn [you] from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all things in them;

mkjv@Acts:14:19 @ And Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there, who, having persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, they drew [him] out of the city, supposing him to have died.

mkjv@Acts:14:22 @ confirming the souls of the disciples, calling on them to continue in the faith and that through much tribulation we must enter into the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Acts:14:26 @ And from there they sailed to Antioch, from where they had been recommended to the grace of God for the work which they fulfilled.

mkjv@Acts:14:27 @ And having arrived, and gathering the church they related all that God had done with them, and how He had opened the door of faith to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:15:1 @ And certain ones who came down from Judea taught the brothers, [saying], Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved.

mkjv@Acts:15:2 @ Therefore dissension and not a little disputation occurring by Paul and Barnabas, they appointed Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.

mkjv@Acts:15:3 @ And indeed being set forward by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the nations. And they caused great joy to all the brothers.

mkjv@Acts:15:5 @ But some of those from the sect of the Pharisees, having believed, rose up, saying, It was necessary to circumcise them and to command [them] to keep the law of Moses.

mkjv@Acts:15:7 @ And after much disputing, Peter rose up and said to them, Men, brothers, you recognize that from ancient days God chose among us [that] through my mouth the nations [should] hear the word of the gospel, and believe.

mkjv@Acts:15:10 @ Now therefore why do you tempt God by putting a yoke on the neck of the disciples, a yoke which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?

mkjv@Acts:15:11 @ But we believe that through the grace of [the] Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved, according to which manner they also believed.

mkjv@Acts:15:14 @ Even as Simon has declared [how] God [at] the first visited the nations to take out of them a people for His name.

mkjv@Acts:15:15 @ And the words of the prophets agree to this; as it is written,

mkjv@Acts:15:16 @ After this I will return and will build again the tabernacle of David [which] has fallen down; and I will build again its ruins, and I will set it up,

mkjv@Acts:15:20 @ but that we write to them that they should abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] fornication, and [from] things strangled, and from blood.

mkjv@Acts:15:26 @ men who have given up their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Acts:15:29 @ that you abstain from meats offered to idols, and [from] blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication; from which, if you keep yourselves, you shall do well. Be prospered.

mkjv@Acts:15:35 @ Also Paul and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the gospel, the Word of the Lord, with many others also.

mkjv@Acts:15:36 @ And some days afterward, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brothers in every city where we have announced the Word of the Lord, to see] how they are holding to it.

mkjv@Acts:15:40 @ But choosing Silas, Paul went out, being commended by the brothers to the grace of God,

mkjv@Acts:16:1 @ And he came to Derbe and Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple named Timothy was there, [the] son of a woman who was a Jewess and who believed. But [his] father [was] a Greek.

mkjv@Acts:16:2 @ [He] was well reported of by the brothers at Lystra and Iconium.

mkjv@Acts:16:3 @ Paul wanted him to go with him, and taking [him he] circumcised him, because of the Jews who were in those places; for they all knew that his father was a Greek.

mkjv@Acts:16:9 @ And a vision appeared to Paul in the night. A certain man of Macedonia stood, begging him, saying, Come over into Macedonia and help us!

mkjv@Acts:16:12 @ and from there to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we continued spending time in that city some days.

mkjv@Acts:16:13 @ And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was usually made. And we sat down and spoke to the women who came together [there].

mkjv@Acts:16:14 @ And a certain woman named Lydia heard us, a seller of purple of the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God; whose heart the Lord opened, so that she attended to the things which were spoken by Paul.

mkjv@Acts:16:16 @ And as we went to prayer, it happened that a certain girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much gain by divining.

mkjv@Acts:16:17 @ The same followed Paul and us and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the Most High God, who are announcing to us the way of salvation.

mkjv@Acts:16:18 @ And she did this many days. But being distressed, and turning to the [demonic] spirit, Paul said, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her! And it came out in that hour.

mkjv@Acts:16:19 @ And when her masters saw that the hope of their gain went out, having seized Paul and Silas, they dragged [them] to the market before the rulers.

mkjv@Acts:16:22 @ And the crowd rose up against them. And tearing off their clothes, the judges ordered [them] to be flogged.

mkjv@Acts:16:26 @ And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were opened and all the bonds were loosened.

mkjv@Acts:16:27 @ And being awakened, and seeing the doors of the prison being open, drawing a sword, the jailer was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.

mkjv@Acts:16:32 @ And they spoke the Word of the Lord to him, and to all who were in his household.

mkjv@Acts:16:33 @ And taking them in that hour of the night, he washed from [their] stripes. And he was baptized, he and all his, immediately.

mkjv@Acts:16:39 @ And coming they begged [them]. And bringing [them] out, [they] asked [them] to depart out of the city.

mkjv@Acts:16:40 @ And going out from the prison, [they] entered into [the house of] Lydia. And seeing the brothers, they comforted them and departed.

mkjv@Acts:17:1 @ And traveling through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:17:2 @ And according to Paul's custom, he went in to them and reasoned with them out of the Scriptures on three sabbaths,

mkjv@Acts:17:4 @ And some of them believed and joined themselves to Paul and Silas, both a great multitude of the worshiping Greeks, and not a few of the chief women.

mkjv@Acts:17:5 @ But the disobeying Jews becoming jealous, and having taken aside some wicked men of the market-loafers, and gathering a crowd, they set all the city in an uproar. And coming on the house of Jason, [they] sought to bring them out to the mob.

mkjv@Acts:17:7 @ whom Jason has received. And these all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:17:10 @ And the brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. They, when they arrived, went into the synagogue of the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:17:11 @ And these were more noble than those of Thessalonica, in that [they received] the Word with all readiness of mind and searched the Scriptures daily [to see] if those things [were so].

mkjv@Acts:17:12 @ Therefore many of them believed, and quite a few of honorable Greek women and men.

mkjv@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that the Word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came there also and stirred up the people.

mkjv@Acts:17:16 @ But awaiting them in Athens, Paul's spirit was pained within him, seeing the city full of idols.

mkjv@Acts:17:18 @ And certain philosophers from the Epicureans and from the Stoics met him. And some said, What will this babbler say? And others said, He seems to be an announcer of foreign demons (because he preached Jesus and the resurrection to them).

mkjv@Acts:17:19 @ And taking hold of him, they led [him] to the Areopagus, saying, Are we able to know what [is] this new doctrine of which you speak?

mkjv@Acts:17:22 @ And standing in [the] middle of the Areopagus, Paul said, Men, Athenians, I see that you [are] fearful of gods in everything.

mkjv@Acts:17:24 @ The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of Heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands,

mkjv@Acts:17:26 @ And He has made all nations of men of one blood to dwell on all the face of the earth, ordaining fore-appointed seasons and boundaries of their dwelling,

mkjv@Acts:17:27 @ to seek the Lord, if perhaps they might feel after Him and find Him, though indeed [He] is not far from each one of us.

mkjv@Acts:17:28 @ For in Him we live and move and have our being, as also certain of your own poets have said, For we are also His offspring.

mkjv@Acts:17:29 @ Then being offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like gold or silver or stone, engraved by art and man's imagination.

mkjv@Acts:17:30 @ Truly, then, God overlooking the times of ignorance, now He strictly commands all men everywhere to repent,

mkjv@Acts:17:31 @ because He has appointed a day in which He is going to judge the world in righteousness by a Man whom He appointed, having given proof to all [by] raising Him from [the] dead.

mkjv@Acts:17:32 @ And hearing [of] a resurrection of [the] dead, some indeed mocked; and others said, We will hear you again concerning this.

mkjv@Acts:18:3 @ And because [he] was of the same trade, he stayed and worked with them; for they were tentmakers by occupation.

mkjv@Acts:18:7 @ And he departed from there and entered into [the] house of one named Justus, [one] worshiping God, whose house was next to the synagogue.

mkjv@Acts:18:8 @ And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house. And hearing this, many of the Corinthians believed and were baptized.

mkjv@Acts:18:11 @ And he continued [there] a year and six months, teaching the Word of God among them.

mkjv@Acts:18:12 @ But Gallio [being] pro-consul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rushed against Paul and brought him to the judgment seat,

mkjv@Acts:18:15 @ But if it is a question of a word and names, and [of] your law, you look [to it]. For I do not wish to be a judge of such things.

mkjv@Acts:18:17 @ And all the Greeks seized Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat [him] before the judgment seat. And Gallio did not care for any of these things.

mkjv@Acts:18:18 @ And Paul having remained many days more, taking leave of the brothers, he sailed from there into Syria. And Priscilla and Aquila were with him. And Paul had shorn his head in Cenchrea, for he had a vow.

mkjv@Acts:18:21 @ but took leave of them, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that is coming in Jerusalem, but I will return again to you, God willing. And he sailed from Ephesus.

mkjv@Acts:18:23 @ And after he had spent some time [there], he departed and went over the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

mkjv@Acts:18:25 @ This man was instructed in the way of the Lord. And [being] fervent in the spirit, he spoke and taught the things of the Lord diligently, knowing only the baptism of John.

mkjv@Acts:18:26 @ And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. And Aquila and Priscilla heard him, and they took him and expounded to him the way of God more perfectly.

mkjv@Acts:19:4 @ And Paul said, John truly baptized [with] the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe into Him coming after him, that is, into Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Acts:19:5 @ And hearing, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:19:7 @ And all of the men were about twelve.

mkjv@Acts:19:8 @ And going into the synagogue, he spoke boldly for three months, reasoning and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Acts:19:9 @ But when some were hardened and did not believe, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of one Tyrannus.

mkjv@Acts:19:10 @ And this happened over two years, so that all those living in Asia heard the Word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.

mkjv@Acts:19:11 @ And God did works of power through the hands of Paul,

mkjv@Acts:19:12 @ so that even handkerchiefs or aprons from his skin being brought onto the sick, the diseases were released, and the evil spirits went out of them.

mkjv@Acts:19:13 @ And certain from the strolling Jews, exorcists, undertook to name the name of the Lord Jesus over those having evil spirits, saying, We adjure you [by] Jesus whom Paul preaches.

mkjv@Acts:19:14 @ And there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did so.

mkjv@Acts:19:16 @ And the man in whom the evil spirit resided leaped on them, and overcoming them he was strong against them, so that they fled out of the house naked and wounded.

mkjv@Acts:19:17 @ And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks who lived at Ephesus, and fear fell on all of them, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

mkjv@Acts:19:19 @ Also many of those practicing the curious arts, bringing together the books, burned [them] before all. And they counted the prices of them and found [it to be] fifty thousand [pieces] of silver.

mkjv@Acts:19:20 @ So the Word of God grew mightily and prevailed.

mkjv@Acts:19:24 @ For a certain silversmith named Demetrius was making silver temples of Artemis, providing not a little trade [for] the craftsmen.

mkjv@Acts:19:27 @ And not only is this dangerous to us, our share coming into dispute, but also the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted for nothing, and her magnificence is also about to be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships.

mkjv@Acts:19:28 @ And hearing, and becoming full of anger, they cried out, saying, Great [is] Artemis of [the] Ephesians.

mkjv@Acts:19:29 @ And all the city was filled with confusion. And they rushed with one accord to the theater, keeping a firm grip on Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, traveling companions of Paul.

mkjv@Acts:19:31 @ And some of the chief men of Asia, being his friends, sent to him, begging [him] not to give himself into the theater.

mkjv@Acts:19:32 @ Then indeed others cried out, some other things; for the assembly was confused, and most of them did not know why they had come together.

mkjv@Acts:19:33 @ And they dragged Alexander forward out of the crowd, the Jews thrusting him forward. And waving [his] hand Alexander desired to defend himself to the mob.

mkjv@Acts:19:34 @ But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice cried out for two hours' [time], Great [is] Artemis of [the] Ephesians!

mkjv@Acts:19:35 @ And quieting the crowd, the town clerk said, Men, Ephesians! What one of you does not know that the city of the Ephesians is a worshiper of the great goddess Artemis, and of That Fallen from the Sky?

mkjv@Acts:19:37 @ For you have brought these men, who are neither robbers of churches nor blasphemers of your goddess.

mkjv@Acts:19:40 @ For we are in danger to be accused of revolt concerning today; there being no cause by which we may give an account of this crowding together.

mkjv@Acts:20:4 @ And Sopater of Berea accompanied him into Asia, and Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus as far as Asia.

mkjv@Acts:20:6 @ And after the days of Unleavened [Bread], we sailed away from Philippi and came to them at Troas [in] five days, where we stayed seven days.

mkjv@Acts:20:7 @ And on the first of the sabbaths, the disciples having been assembled to break bread, being about to depart on the morrow, Paul reasoned to them. And he continued his speech until midnight.

mkjv@Acts:20:16 @ For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not lose time in Asia; for, if it were possible for him, he hastened to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.

mkjv@Acts:20:17 @ And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the church.

mkjv@Acts:20:19 @ serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and many tears and temptations happening to me through the plots of the Jews;

mkjv@Acts:20:20 @ [and] how I kept back nothing that was profitable, but have shown you and have taught you publicly, and from house to house,

mkjv@Acts:20:24 @ But none of these things move me, neither do I count my life dear to myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus [Christ], to testify fully the gospel of the grace of God.

mkjv@Acts:20:25 @ And now, behold, I know that you all will see my face no more, among whom I went proclaiming the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Acts:20:26 @ Therefore I testify to you on this day that I [am] pure from the blood of all.

mkjv@Acts:20:27 @ For I did not keep back from declaring to you all the counsel of God.

mkjv@Acts:20:28 @ Therefore take heed to yourselves, and to all the flock over which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to feed the church of God which He has purchased with [His] own blood.

mkjv@Acts:20:31 @ Therefore watch and remember that [for the time] of three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.

mkjv@Acts:20:32 @ And now, brothers, I commend you to God, and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and to give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

mkjv@Acts:20:35 @ I have shown you all things, that working in this way we ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.

mkjv@Acts:20:37 @ And there was much weeping of all, and falling on the neck of Paul, they ardently kissed him,

mkjv@Acts:20:38 @ grieving most of all over the word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more. And they went with him to the ship.

mkjv@Acts:21:8 @ And the next [day] those around [him] going out, Paul came to Caesarea. And entering the house of Philip the evangelist, [he] being of the seven, we stayed with him.

mkjv@Acts:21:11 @ And coming to us, and taking Paul's belt, and binding his hands and feet, he said, The Holy Spirit says these [things]: So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man whose belt this is, and will deliver [him] into the hands of the] nations.

mkjv@Acts:21:12 @ And when we heard these things, both we and those of [the] place begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.

mkjv@Acts:21:13 @ Then Paul answered, What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Acts:21:14 @ And he not being persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be [done].

mkjv@Acts:21:16 @ Also [some] of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing Mnason, a certain Cypriot, an old disciple with whom we were to lodge.

mkjv@Acts:21:20 @ And hearing, they glorified the Lord, and said to him, You see, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are who believe, and they are all zealous of the law.

mkjv@Acts:21:26 @ Then taking the men on the next day, being purified with them, Paul went into the temple, declaring the fulfillment of the days of the purification, until an offering should be offered for each of them.

mkjv@Acts:21:30 @ And all the city was moved, and the people ran together. And laying hands on Paul, they drew him outside of the temple. And immediately the doors were shut.

mkjv@Acts:21:31 @ And as they [were] seeking to kill him, the news came to the chiliarch of the cohort, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

mkjv@Acts:21:34 @ And others cried something else in the crowd, and not being able to know the certainty on account of the uproar, he commanded him to be carried into the fortress.

mkjv@Acts:21:35 @ And when he came on the stairs, it happened that he was carried by the soldiers, because of the violence of the crowd.

mkjv@Acts:21:36 @ For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him!

mkjv@Acts:21:38 @ Then are you not the Egyptian who before these days caused a riot, and led four thousand men of the assassins out into the wilderness?

mkjv@Acts:21:39 @ But Paul said, I am a man, a Jew of Tarsus in Cilicia, a citizen [of] no small city. And I beseech you, allow me to speak to the people.

mkjv@Acts:22:3 @ I am truly a man, a Jew born in Tarsus in Cilicia, yet brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the exactness of the law of the fathers, being a zealous one of God, as you all are today.

mkjv@Acts:22:6 @ And it happened to me, traveling and drawing near to Damascus: suddenly, about midday, a great light out of the heaven shone around me.

mkjv@Acts:22:8 @ And I answered, Who are you, lord? And he said to me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you persecute.

mkjv@Acts:22:9 @ And they who were with me indeed saw the light and were afraid. But they did not hear the voice of Him who spoke to me.

mkjv@Acts:22:11 @ And I did not see, because of the glory of that light; being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came into Damascus.

mkjv@Acts:22:14 @ And he said, The God of our fathers has chosen you to know His will and to see the Just One, and to hear a voice out of His mouth.

mkjv@Acts:22:15 @ For you shall be His witness to all men of what you have seen and heard.

mkjv@Acts:22:16 @ And now what do you intend? Arise and be baptized and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.

mkjv@Acts:22:18 @ And I saw Him say to me, Hurry and go quickly out of Jerusalem, for they will not receive your testimony concerning Me.

mkjv@Acts:22:20 @ And when the blood of Your martyr Stephen was poured out, I also was standing by and consenting to his death, and holding the garments of those who killed him.

mkjv@Acts:23:5 @ Then Paul said, I did not know, brothers, that he was the high priest; for it is written, You shall not speak evil of the ruler of your people.

mkjv@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul saw that the one part were Sadducees and the other part Pharisees, he cried out in the sanhedrin, Men! Brothers! I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee! I am being judged because of the hope and resurrection of [the] dead.

mkjv@Acts:23:11 @ And the following night the Lord stood by him and said, Be of good cheer, Paul, for as you have testified of Me in Jerusalem, so you also must bear witness at Rome.

mkjv@Acts:23:12 @ And when [it] became day, some of the Jews banded together and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.

mkjv@Acts:23:16 @ And hearing of the ambush, Paul's sister's son, having come near, and entering into the fortress, he reported to Paul.

mkjv@Acts:23:17 @ And calling one of the centurions, Paul said, Bring this young man to the chiliarch, for he has a certain thing to tell him.

mkjv@Acts:23:19 @ And laying hold of his hand, and drawing aside privately, the chiliarch asked [him], What is [it] that you have to tell me?

mkjv@Acts:23:21 @ But do not yield to them, for there are more than forty men of them lying in wait for him, who have bound themselves with an oath that they will neither eat nor drink until they have killed him. And now they are ready, looking for a promise from you.

mkjv@Acts:23:23 @ And he called two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen, at the third hour of the night.

mkjv@Acts:23:29 @ whom I found be accused of questions of their law, and having no charge worthy of death or of bonds.

mkjv@Acts:24:5 @ For we have found this man pestilent, and moving rebellion among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes,

mkjv@Acts:24:6 @ who also attempted to profane the temple, whom we took and would have judged according to our law.

mkjv@Acts:24:7 @ But the chiliarch Lysias came with much force, taking [him] away out of our hands,

mkjv@Acts:24:8 @ commanding his accusers to come to you. By examining him, you yourself may know about all these things of which we accuse him.

mkjv@Acts:24:10 @ But the governor motioning to him to speak, Paul answered; Understanding you as being a judge of this nation many years, I cheerfully defend myself [as to] the things concerning myself.

mkjv@Acts:24:12 @ And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, nor making a gathering of a crowd; not even in the synagogues, nor throughout the city.

mkjv@Acts:24:13 @ Nor can they prove the things of which they now accuse me.

mkjv@Acts:24:14 @ But I confess this to you, that after the Way which they call heresy, so I worship the God of my fathers, believing all things that are written in the Law and in the Prophets.

mkjv@Acts:24:15 @ And I have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of [the] dead, both of the just and unjust.

mkjv@Acts:24:17 @ And after many years I came to bring alms and offerings to my nation.

mkjv@Acts:24:21 @ unless it may be for this one voice that I cried out standing among them, that concerning a resurrection of [the] dead I am being judged by you today.

mkjv@Acts:24:22 @ And having heard these things, Felix put them off, knowing more accurately of the Way, saying, When Lysias the chiliarch has come down, I will examine the things concerning you.

mkjv@Acts:24:23 @ And he commanded a centurion to keep Paul and to let [him] have liberty, and not to forbid anyone of his own to minister or come to him.

mkjv@Acts:24:25 @ And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and the Judgment to come, Felix trembled and answered, Go for this time, but taking time later, I will call for you.

mkjv@Acts:25:2 @ And the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and they begged him

mkjv@Acts:25:8 @ Defending himself, [Paul] said, Neither against the Law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I offended in anything.

mkjv@Acts:25:11 @ For if I am an offender or have committed anything worthy of death, I do not refuse to die. But if there is nothing of which these accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar.

mkjv@Acts:25:15 @ about whom, when I was in Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed [me], desiring judgment against him.

mkjv@Acts:25:16 @ To them I answered, It is not the custom of the Romans to deliver any man to destruction before he being accused may have the accusers face to face, and have had freedom to answer for himself concerning the accusation.

mkjv@Acts:25:18 @ about whom, standing up, the accusers brought against him no charge of which I suspected,

mkjv@Acts:25:21 @ But Paul having appealed to be reserved to the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be held until I might send him to Caesar.

mkjv@Acts:25:23 @ And on the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice had come with great pomp and had entered into the auditorium with both the chiliarchs and principal men of the city, also Festus commanding, Paul was brought out.

mkjv@Acts:25:24 @ And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all those men present with us, you see this one about whom all the multitude of the Jews pleaded with me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.

mkjv@Acts:25:25 @ But I had perceived nothing he had committed worthy of death, and that he himself has appealed to Augustus, I determined to send him,

mkjv@Acts:25:26 @ about whom I have no certain thing to write of him to [my] lord. Therefore I brought him before you, and especially before you, O king Agrippa, so that, after examination is made, I might have something to write.

mkjv@Acts:26:2 @ Concerning all of which I am accused by Jews, king Agrippa, I think myself happy being about to make defense before you today,

mkjv@Acts:26:4 @ Truly, then, all the Jews know my manner of life from my youth, which was at first among my own nation at Jerusalem,

mkjv@Acts:26:5 @ who knew me from the first, if they would testify, that according to the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

mkjv@Acts:26:6 @ And now I stand and am judged for [the] hope of the promise made to our fathers by God,

mkjv@Acts:26:7 @ to which [promise] our twelve tribes hope to attain, serving God fervently night and day. For the sake of this hope, king Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews.

mkjv@Acts:26:9 @ I truly thought within myself that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth,

mkjv@Acts:26:10 @ which I also did in Jerusalem. And I shut up many of the saints in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests. And they being put to death, I cast a vote.

mkjv@Acts:26:11 @ And I punished them often in every synagogue; I compelled [them] to blaspheme; and [being] exceedingly furious against them, I persecuted them even to the outside cities.

mkjv@Acts:26:12 @ In which pursuit also traveling to Damascus with authority and power of decision from the chief priests,

mkjv@Acts:26:14 @ And all of us falling to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me and saying in the Hebrew dialect, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? [It is] hard for you to kick against the goads.

mkjv@Acts:26:16 @ But rise and stand on your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of what you saw, and in what I shall appear to you;

mkjv@Acts:26:18 @ in order to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light, and from the authority of Satan to God, so that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.

mkjv@Acts:26:20 @ But to those first in Damascus, and Jerusalem, and to all the country of Judea, and to the nations, I made known [the command] to repent and to turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance

mkjv@Acts:26:21 @ Because of these things, having caught [me] in the temple, The Jews tried to kill [me].

mkjv@Acts:26:23 @ whether the Christ was] liable to suffer, whether first by a resurrection of the] dead He was going to proclaim light to the people and to the nations.

mkjv@Acts:26:25 @ But he said, Not to insanity, most noble Festus, but I speak words of truth and sanity.

mkjv@Acts:26:26 @ For the king understands about these things, to whom I speak, even being bold of speech. For I am persuaded that not any of these things are hidden [from] him, nothing. For the doing of this was not in a corner.

mkjv@Acts:26:31 @ And withdrawing, they spoke with one another, saying, This man does nothing worthy of death or of bonds.

mkjv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was determined that we should sail to Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to [one] named Julius, a centurion of Augustus' cohort.

mkjv@Acts:27:2 @ And boarding a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail alongside Asian places, we set sail, Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, being with us.

mkjv@Acts:27:5 @ And sailing over the sea against Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra of Lycia.

mkjv@Acts:27:6 @ And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing to Italy, and he put us on it.

mkjv@Acts:27:7 @ And sailing slowly many days and with difficulty, coming abreast of Cnidus; the wind not allowing us; we sailed close to Crete, across from Salmone.

mkjv@Acts:27:10 @ saying, Men, I perceive that this voyage is about to be with much harm and loss, and not only much cargo and of the ship, but also of our souls.

mkjv@Acts:27:12 @ And the port not being fit to winter in, the most of them advised to set sail from there, if by any means they might be able to get to Phoenix to winter; [which is] a port of Crete, looking toward [the] southwest and northwest.

mkjv@Acts:27:13 @ And a south wind blowing softly, thinking to have obtained [their] purpose, lifting [anchor], they sailed along close beside Crete.

mkjv@Acts:27:16 @ And running under an islet being called Clauda, we hardly were able to become masters of the boat;

mkjv@Acts:27:17 @ which taking, they used helps, undergirding the ship. And fearing lest they should fall into the sandbanks of Syrtis, lowering the tackle, so they were borne along.

mkjv@Acts:27:22 @ And now I exhort you to be of good cheer, for there will be no casting away of life among you, only of the ship.

mkjv@Acts:27:23 @ For tonight an angel of God stood beside me, whose I am and whom I serve,

mkjv@Acts:27:25 @ Therefore, men, be of good cheer, for I believe God, that it will be so, according to the way it was told me.

mkjv@Acts:27:29 @ And fearing that we would fall on rocks, and casting four anchors out of [the] stern, they wished day to come.

mkjv@Acts:27:30 @ But the sailors seeking to flee out of the ship, and lowering the boat into the sea, pretending to be about to cast out anchors from [the] prow,

mkjv@Acts:27:32 @ Then the soldiers cut the ropes of the boat, and let her fall.

mkjv@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I beg you to take [some] food, for this is for your deliverance. For not a hair of your head shall perish.

mkjv@Acts:27:40 @ And casting off the anchors, they left [them] in the sea; at the same time they loosened the rudder bands and hoisted up the foresail to the wind and held to the shore.

mkjv@Acts:27:41 @ And coming on a place between two seas, they drove the vessel. And indeed the prow sticking fast, [it] remained unmovable. But the stern was broken with the violence of the waves.

mkjv@Acts:27:42 @ And the mind of the soldiers was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out and escape.

mkjv@Acts:27:44 @ And the rest [went], some on boards and others on some of the things from the ship. And so it happened that all were saved on the land.

mkjv@Acts:28:2 @ And the foreigners showed us not the common kindness. For they kindled a fire and welcomed all of us, because of the rain coming on, and because of the cold.

mkjv@Acts:28:3 @ And Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laying [them] on the fire, a viper came out of the heat and fastened on his hand.

mkjv@Acts:28:5 @ Then indeed he shook off the creature into the fire, suffering no harm.

mkjv@Acts:28:7 @ In the [quarters] about that place were lands to the chief of the island, whose name was Publius. Welcoming us, [he] lodged us courteously three days.

mkjv@Acts:28:8 @ And it happened the father of Publius was lying down, suffering fevers and dysentery; to whom Paul entered in, and praying and laying on his hands, he healed him.

mkjv@Acts:28:10 @ [They] also honored us with many honors. And on [our] setting sail, they laid on the things of [our] needs.

mkjv@Acts:28:11 @ And after three months we sailed in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, an Alexandrian with an ensign, The Twin Brothers.

mkjv@Acts:28:15 @ And the brothers from there hearing of us, [they] came to meet us as far as [the] market-place of Appius, and Three Taverns. Seeing them, thanking God, Paul took courage.

mkjv@Acts:28:17 @ And after three days it happened that Paul called together those being chief of the Jews. And they coming together, he said to them, Men, brothers, I did nothing against the people or customs of our fathers. I was delivered a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans

mkjv@Acts:28:18 @ who, examining me, were of a mind to let [me] go because there was no cause of death in me.

mkjv@Acts:28:20 @ For this cause, then, I called for you, to see and to speak with [you]. For I have this chain around me for the hope of Israel.

mkjv@Acts:28:21 @ And they said to him, We neither received letters out of Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brothers who came declared or spoke anything evil of you.

mkjv@Acts:28:23 @ And they having appointed him a day, many came to him in [his] lodging; to whom he expounded, testifying the kingdom of God, and persuading them the things concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses and out of the prophets, from morning until evening.

mkjv@Acts:28:27 @ For the heart of this people was fattened, and they have heard with their ears dully; and they closed their eyes; lest at any time they should see with [their] eyes, and hear with [their] ears, and understand with [their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

mkjv@Acts:28:28 @ Therefore be it known to you that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will hear.

mkjv@Acts:28:31 @ proclaiming the kingdom of God, and teaching those things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, with all freedom, [and] without hindrance.

mkjv@Romans:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, separated to the gospel of God

mkjv@Romans:1:3 @ about His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who was made of the seed of David according to the flesh,

mkjv@Romans:1:8 @ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.

mkjv@Romans:1:9 @ For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you

mkjv@Romans:1:10 @ always in my prayers, making request if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come to you.

mkjv@Romans:1:11 @ For I long to see you, so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift, to you for the establishing of you.

mkjv@Romans:1:13 @ But I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that oftentimes I purposed to come to you, and was kept back until the present; that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other nations.

mkjv@Romans:1:16 @ For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is [the] power of God unto salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.

mkjv@Romans:1:17 @ For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, The just shall live by faith.

mkjv@Romans:1:18 @ For the wrath of God is revealed from Heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness,

mkjv@Romans:1:19 @ because the thing which may be known of God is clearly revealed within them, for God revealed [it] to them.

mkjv@Romans:1:20 @ For the unseen things of Him from [the] creation of [the] world [are] clearly seen, being realized by the things that are made, [even] His eternal power and Godhead, for them to be without excuse.

mkjv@Romans:1:22 @ Professing to be wise, they became fools

mkjv@Romans:1:23 @ and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man, and birds, and four-footed animals, and creeping things.

mkjv@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of [their] hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves.

mkjv@Romans:1:25 @ For they changed the truth of God into a lie, and they worshiped and served the created thing more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:1:27 @ And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust toward one another; males with males working out shamefulness, and receiving in themselves the recompense which was fitting for their error.

mkjv@Romans:2:9 @ tribulation and anguish upon every soul of man who has worked out evil; of the Jew first, and also of the Greek.

mkjv@Romans:2:11 @ For there is no respect of faces with God.

mkjv@Romans:2:13 @ For it is not the hearers of the Law who [are] just before God, but the doers of the Law will be justified.

mkjv@Romans:2:14 @ For when the nations, who do not have the Law, do by nature the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law unto themselves;

mkjv@Romans:2:15 @ who show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and the thoughts between one another accusing or even excusing one another,

mkjv@Romans:2:26 @ If then the uncircumcision keeps the ordinances of the Law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?

mkjv@Romans:2:27 @ And the uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfills the Law, shall it not judge you, who through letter and circumcision [become] transgressors of the Law?

mkjv@Romans:2:29 @ but he [is] a Jew who [is one] inwardly, and circumcision [is] of the heart; in spirit and not in letter; whose praise [is] not from men, but from God.

mkjv@Romans:3:1 @ Then what [is] the superiority of the Jew? Or what [is] the profit of circumcision?

mkjv@Romans:3:2 @ Much, by every way! Chiefly, indeed, because they were entrusted with the oracles of God.

mkjv@Romans:3:3 @ For what? If some did not believe, will not their unbelief nullify the faith of God?

mkjv@Romans:3:5 @ But if our unrighteousness commends the righteousness of God, what shall we say? [Is] God unrighteous who lays on wrath? (I speak as a man.)

mkjv@Romans:3:12 @ They are all gone out of the way, [they] have together become unprofitable, there is none that does good, no, not one.

mkjv@Romans:3:13 @ Their throat [is] an open grave, with their tongues they have used deceit, [the] poison of asps [is] under their lips;

mkjv@Romans:3:18 @ There is no fear of God before their eyes.

mkjv@Romans:3:20 @ because by the works of the Law none of all flesh will be justified in His sight; for through the Law [is] the knowledge of sin.

mkjv@Romans:3:22 @ even the righteousness of God through the faith of Jesus Christ, toward all and upon all those who believe. For there is no difference,

mkjv@Romans:3:23 @ for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,

mkjv@Romans:3:25 @ whom God has set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness through the passing by of the sins that had taken place before, in the forbearance of God;

mkjv@Romans:3:26 @ for the display of His righteousness at this time, for Him to be just and, forgiving the [one] being of the faith of Jesus.

mkjv@Romans:3:27 @ Then where [is] the boasting? It is excluded. Through what law? Of works? No, but through the law of faith.

mkjv@Romans:3:28 @ Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the works of the law.

mkjv@Romans:3:29 @ Or [is He] the God of the Jews only, and not also of the nations? Yes, of the nations also,

mkjv@Romans:4:6 @ Even as David also says of the blessedness of the man to whom God imputes righteousness without works,

mkjv@Romans:4:11 @ And he received a sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith [while still] uncircumcised; so that he might be [the] father of all those believing through uncircumcision, for righteousness to be imputed to them also;

mkjv@Romans:4:12 @ and a father of circumcision to those not of the circumcision only, but also to those walking by the steps of the faith of our father Abraham during uncircumcision.

mkjv@Romans:4:13 @ For the promise that he should be the heir of the world [was] not to Abraham or to his seed through the Law, but through the righteousness of faith.

mkjv@Romans:4:14 @ For if they of the Law [are] heirs, faith is made void and the promise is made of no effect;

mkjv@Romans:4:16 @ Therefore [it is] of faith so that [it might be] according to grace; for the promise to be made sure to all the seed, not only to that which is of the Law, but to that also which is of the] faith of Abraham, who is the father of us all

mkjv@Romans:4:17 @ (as it has been written, I have made you a father of many nations) --before God, whom he believed, who makes the dead live, and calls the things [which] do not exist as [though they] do exist.

mkjv@Romans:4:18 @ [For he] who beyond hope believed on hope for him to become the father of many nations (according to that which was spoken, So your seed shall be).

mkjv@Romans:4:19 @ And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own body already dead (being about a hundred years old) or the deadening of Sarah's womb.

mkjv@Romans:4:20 @ He did not stagger at the promise of God through unbelief, but was strong in faith, giving glory to God,

mkjv@Romans:4:25 @ who was delivered because of our offenses and was raised for our justification.

mkjv@Romans:5:2 @ Through Him we also have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice on the hope of the glory of God.

mkjv@Romans:5:5 @ And hope does not make [us] ashamed, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts through [the] Holy Spirit given to us.

mkjv@Romans:5:10 @ For if [when] we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.

mkjv@Romans:5:14 @ But death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over those who had not sinned in the likeness of the transgression of Adam, who is the type of Him who was to come;

mkjv@Romans:5:15 @ but the free gift [shall] not [be] also like the offense. For if by the offense of the one many died, much more the grace of God, and the gift in grace; which [is] of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many.

mkjv@Romans:5:16 @ And the free gift [shall] not [be] as by one having sinned; (for indeed the judgment [was] of one to condemnation, but the free gift [is] of many offenses to justification.

mkjv@Romans:5:17 @ For if by one man's offense death reigned by one, much more they who receive abundance of grace and the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by One, Jesus Christ.)

mkjv@Romans:5:18 @ Therefore as by one offense [sentence came] on all men to condemnation, even so by the righteousness of One the free gift [came] to all men to justification of life.

mkjv@Romans:5:19 @ For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of One shall many be made righteous.

mkjv@Romans:5:20 @ But the Law entered so that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound,

mkjv@Romans:6:3 @ Do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death?

mkjv@Romans:6:4 @ Therefore we were buried with Him by baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised up from [the] dead by the glory of the Father; even so we also should walk in newness of life.

mkjv@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been joined together in the likeness of His death, we shall also be [in the likeness] of His resurrection;

mkjv@Romans:6:6 @ knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [Him] in order that the body of sin might be destroyed, that from now on we should not serve sin.

mkjv@Romans:6:13 @ Do not yield your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but yield yourselves to God, as [one] alive from [the] dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness to God.

mkjv@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that to whom you yield yourselves [as] slaves for obedience, you are slaves to him whom you obey; whether it is of sin to death, or of obedience to righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:6:17 @ But thanks [be] to our God that you were the slaves of sin, but you have obeyed from [the] heart that form of doctrine to which you were delivered.

mkjv@Romans:6:18 @ Then being made free from sin, you became the slaves of righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:6:19 @ I speak in the manner of men because of the weakness of your flesh; for as you have yielded your members [as] slaves to uncleanness, and to lawless act unto lawless act, even so now yield your members as slaves to righteousness unto holiness.

mkjv@Romans:6:20 @ For when you were the slaves of sin, you were free from righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:6:21 @ What fruit did you have then [in those things] of which you are now ashamed? For the end of those things [is] death.

mkjv@Romans:6:23 @ For the wages of sin [is] death, but the gift of God [is] eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

mkjv@Romans:7:2 @ For the married woman was bound by law to the living husband. But if the husband is dead, she is set free from the law of [her] husband.

mkjv@Romans:7:4 @ So, my brothers, you also have become dead to the law by the body of Christ so that you should be married to Another, [even] to Him raised from [the] dead, that we should bring forth fruit to God.

mkjv@Romans:7:5 @ For when we were in the flesh, the passions of sin worked in our members through the law to bring forth fruit to death.

mkjv@Romans:7:6 @ But now we having been set free from the Law, having died [to that] in which we were held, so that we serve in newness of spirit and not [in] oldness of the letter.

mkjv@Romans:7:8 @ But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, worked in me all kinds of lust. For apart from law sin [was] dead.

mkjv@Romans:7:22 @ For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man;

mkjv@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 being in my members.

mkjv@Romans:7:24 @ O wretched man [that] I [am]! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death?

mkjv@Romans:7:25 @ I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

mkjv@Romans:8:2 @ But the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

mkjv@Romans:8:3 @ For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh;

mkjv@Romans:8:4 @ so that the righteousness of the Law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:8:5 @ For they who are according to the flesh mind the things of flesh, but they who are according to the Spirit the things of the Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:8:7 @ because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God, for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can [it be].

mkjv@Romans:8:9 @ But you are not in the flesh, but in [the] Spirit, if [the] Spirit of God dwells in you. But if anyone has not [the] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His.

mkjv@Romans:8:10 @ And if Christ [is] in you, indeed the body [is] dead because of sin, but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:8:11 @ But if the Spirit of the [One] who raised up Jesus from [the] dead dwells in you, the [One] who raised up Christ from [the] dead shall also make your mortal bodies alive by His Spirit who dwells in you.

mkjv@Romans:8:13 @ For if you live according to the flesh, you shall die. But if you through [the] Spirit mortify the deeds of the body, you shall live.

mkjv@Romans:8:14 @ For as many as are led by [the] Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

mkjv@Romans:8:15 @ For you have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption by which we cry, Abba, Father!

mkjv@Romans:8:16 @ The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are the children of God.

mkjv@Romans:8:17 @ And if we are children, then we are heirs; heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ; so that if we suffer with [Him], we may also be glorified together.

mkjv@Romans:8:18 @ For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time [are] not worthy [to be compared] with the coming glory to be revealed in us.

mkjv@Romans:8:19 @ For the earnest expectation of the creation waits for the manifestation of the sons of God.

mkjv@Romans:8:20 @ For the creation was not willingly subjected to vanity, but because of Him who subjected [it] on hope

mkjv@Romans:8:21 @ that the creation itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

mkjv@Romans:8:23 @ And not only [so], but ourselves also, who have the firstfruit of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, awaiting adoption, the redemption of our body.

mkjv@Romans:8:27 @ And He searching the hearts knows what [is] the mind of the Spirit, because He makes intercession for the saints according to [the will of] God.

mkjv@Romans:8:29 @ For whom He foreknew, He also predestinated [to be] conformed to the image of His Son, for Him to be [the] First-born among many brothers.

mkjv@Romans:8:33 @ Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God who justifies.

mkjv@Romans:8:34 @ Who [is] he condemning? [It is] Christ who has died, but rather also [who is] raised, who is also at [the] right [hand] of God, who also intercedes for us.

mkjv@Romans:8:35 @ Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [Shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

mkjv@Romans:8:36 @ As it is written, For Your sake we are killed all the day long. We are counted as sheep of slaughter.

mkjv@Romans:8:39 @ nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

mkjv@Romans:9:4 @ who are Israelites; to whom [belong] the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the Law, and the service [of God], and the promises;

mkjv@Romans:9:5 @ whose [are] the fathers, and of whom [is] the Christ according to flesh, He being God over all, blessed forever. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:9:6 @ Not however that the word of God has failed, for not all those of Israel [are] Israel;

mkjv@Romans:9:7 @ nor because they are the seed of Abraham [are they] all children. But, In Isaac shall your Seed be called.

mkjv@Romans:9:8 @ That is, not the children of the flesh [are] children of God; but the children of the promise [are] counted for a seed.

mkjv@Romans:9:9 @ For this [is] the word of promise: At this time I will come and Sarah shall have a son.

mkjv@Romans:9:11 @ (for [the children] had not yet been born, neither had done any good or evil; but that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works but of Him who called,)

mkjv@Romans:9:16 @ So then [it is] not of the [one] willing, nor of the [one] running, but of God, the [One] showing mercy.

mkjv@Romans:9:22 @ [What] if God, willing to show His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much long-suffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction;

mkjv@Romans:9:23 @ and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy which He had before prepared to glory;

mkjv@Romans:9:24 @ whom He also called, not only us, of Jews, but also of the nations?

mkjv@Romans:9:26 @ And it shall be, in the place where it was said to them. You [are] not My people; there they shall be called sons of the living God.

mkjv@Romans:9:27 @ Isaiah also cries concerning Israel, Though the number of the sons of Israel is as the sands of the sea, a remnant shall be saved.

mkjv@Romans:9:29 @ And as Isaiah said before, Unless the Lord of hosts had left us a seed, we would have been as Sodom, and would have been like Gomorrah.

mkjv@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say then? That the nations, who did not follow after righteousness have taken on righteousness, but a righteousness of faith.

mkjv@Romans:9:31 @ But Israel, who followed after a law of righteousness did not arrive at a law of righteousness.

mkjv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because [it was] not of faith, but as it were by the works of the Law. For they stumbled at that Stumbling-stone;

mkjv@Romans:9:33 @ as it is written, Behold, I lay in Zion a Stumbling-stone and a Rock-of-offense, and everyone believing on Him shall not be put to shame.

mkjv@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear record to them that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

mkjv@Romans:10:3 @ For they, being ignorant of God's righteousness and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves to the righteousness of God.

mkjv@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ [is] the end of the law for righteousness for everyone who believes.

mkjv@Romans:10:5 @ For Moses writes [of] the righteousness [which] is of the Law, The man who does those things shall live by them.

mkjv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness of faith says this: Do not say in your heart, Who shall ascend into Heaven? that is, to bring Christ down;

mkjv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? The word is near you, [even] in your mouth and in your heart; that is, the word of faith which we proclaim;

mkjv@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no difference both of Jew and of Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call on Him.

mkjv@Romans:10:13 @ For everyone, whoever shall call on the name of [the] Lord will be saved.

mkjv@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 preaching?

mkjv@Romans:10:15 @ And how shall they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful [are] the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace and bring glad tidings of good things!

mkjv@Romans:10:17 @ Then faith [is] of hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

mkjv@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, Have they not heard? Yes indeed, their voice went out into all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.

mkjv@Romans:11:1 @ I say then, Did not God put away His people? Let it not be [said]! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of [the] tribe of Benjamin.

mkjv@Romans:11:5 @ Even so then, also in this present time a remnant according to the election of grace has come into being.

mkjv@Romans:11:6 @ But if by grace, then [it is] no more of works; otherwise grace is no more grace. But if [it is] of works, then it is no more of grace; otherwise work is no more work.

mkjv@Romans:11:8 @ even as it is written, God gave to them a spirit of slumber, eyes not seeing, and ears not hearing until this day.

mkjv@Romans:11:12 @ But if their slipping away [is] the riches of [the] world, and their default is [the] riches of [the] nations, how much more their fullness?

mkjv@Romans:11:13 @ For I speak to you, the nations; since I am the apostle of the nations, I glorify my ministry;

mkjv@Romans:11:14 @ if by any means I may provoke [those who are] my flesh to jealousy, and might save some of them.

mkjv@Romans:11:15 @ For if their casting away [is the] reconciling of [the] world, what [is] the reception except life from [the] dead?

mkjv@Romans:11:17 @ And if some of the branches were broken off, and you, being a wild olive tree, were grafted in among them, and became a sharer of the root and the fatness of the olive tree with them,

mkjv@Romans:11:19 @ You will say then, The branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.

mkjv@Romans:11:20 @ Well, because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not [be] high-minded, but fear.

mkjv@Romans:11:22 @ Behold then [the] kindness, and [the] severity of God; on those having fallen, severity; but on you, kindness, if you continue in the kindness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

mkjv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of the natural wild olive [tree], and were grafted contrary to nature into a good olive [tree]; how much more these [being] according to nature will be grafted into [their] own olive-tree?

mkjv@Romans:11:25 @ For I do not want you to be ignorant of this mystery, brothers, lest you should be wise within yourselves; that blindness in part has happened to Israel, until the fullness of the nations has comes in.

mkjv@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel shall be saved; as it is written, There shall come out of Zion the Deliverer, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob.

mkjv@Romans:11:29 @ For the free gifts and calling of God [are] without repentance.

mkjv@Romans:11:33 @ O [the] depth of [the] riches both of [the] wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable [are] His judgments, and His ways past finding out!

mkjv@Romans:11:34 @ For who has known the mind of [the] Lord, or who became His counselor?

mkjv@Romans:11:36 @ For of Him and through Him and to Him [are] all things; to Him be glory forever! Amen.

mkjv@Romans:12:1 @ I beseech you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, pleasing to God, [which is] your reasonable service.

mkjv@Romans:12:2 @ And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, in order to prove by you what [is] that good and pleasing and perfect will of God.

mkjv@Romans:12:3 @ For I say, through the grace given to me, to every one who is among you, not to think [of himself] more highly than he ought to think. But set your mind to be right-minded, even as God has dealt to every man the measure of faith.

mkjv@Romans:12:5 @ so we the many are one body in Christ, and each one members of one another.

mkjv@Romans:12:6 @ Then having gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, if prophecy, according to the proportion of faith;

mkjv@Romans:12:13 @ distributing to the needs of the saints, pursuing hospitality.

mkjv@Romans:12:17 @ Repay no one evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

mkjv@Romans:12:20 @ Therefore if your enemy hungers, feed him. If he thirsts, give him drink. For [in so] doing you shall heap coals of fire on his head.

mkjv@Romans:13:1 @ Let every soul be subject to the higher authorities. For there is no authority but of God; the authorities that exist are ordained by God.

mkjv@Romans:13:2 @ So that the one resisting the authority resists the ordinance of God; and the ones who resist will receive judgment to themselves.

mkjv@Romans:13:3 @ For the rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the bad. And do you desire to be not afraid of the authority? Do the good, and you shall have praise from it.

mkjv@Romans:13:4 @ For it is a servant of God to you for good. For if you practice evil, be afraid, for it does not bear the sword in vain; for it is a servant of God, a revenger for wrath on him who does evil.

mkjv@Romans:13:6 @ For because of this you also pay taxes. For they are God's servants, always giving attention to this very thing.

mkjv@Romans:13:10 @ Love works no ill to its neighbor, therefore love [is] the fulfilling of the law.

mkjv@Romans:13:11 @ This also, knowing the time, that [it is] already time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation [is] nearer than when we believed.

mkjv@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.

mkjv@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not take thought beforehand for the lusts of the flesh.

mkjv@Romans:14:1 @ And receive him who is weak in the faith, [but] not to judgments of [your] thoughts.

mkjv@Romans:14:7 @ For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.

mkjv@Romans:14:9 @ For this Christ both died and rose and lived again, that He might be Lord both of [the] dead and living.

mkjv@Romans:14:10 @ But why do you judge your brother? Or also why do you despise your brother? For all shall stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

mkjv@Romans:14:12 @ So then each one of us will give account concerning himself to God.

mkjv@Romans:14:13 @ Then let us not judge one another any more, but rather judge this, not to put a stumbling-block or an offense toward his brother.

mkjv@Romans:14:16 @ Then do not let your good be spoken evil of,

mkjv@Romans:14:17 @ for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:14:19 @ So then let us pursue the things of peace, and the things for building up one another.

mkjv@Romans:14:20 @ Do not undo the work of God for food. Truly, all things indeed [are] clean, but [it is] bad to the man eating because of a stumbling-block.

mkjv@Romans:14:21 @ [It is] good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor [anything] by which your brother stumbles, or is offended, or is made weak.

mkjv@Romans:14:23 @ But, the one doubting, if he eats, [he] has been condemned, because it is not of faith; and all that [is] not of faith is sin.

mkjv@Romans:15:1 @ Then we who are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

mkjv@Romans:15:2 @ Let every one of us please [his] neighbor for [his] good, to building up.

mkjv@Romans:15:3 @ For even Christ did not please Himself; but as it is written, The reproaches of those who reproached You fell on Me.

mkjv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, so that we through patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.

mkjv@Romans:15:5 @ And may the God of patience and consolation grant you to be like minded toward one another according to Christ Jesus,

mkjv@Romans:15:6 @ so that with one mind [and] one mouth you may glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Romans:15:7 @ Therefore receive one another as Christ also received us, to [the] glory of God.

mkjv@Romans:15:8 @ And I say, Jesus Christ has become a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises [made] to the fathers,

mkjv@Romans:15:12 @ And again Isaiah says, There shall be a root of Jesse, and He who shall rise to reign over the nations, in Him shall the nations trust.

mkjv@Romans:15:13 @ And may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope through the power of [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:15:14 @ And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brothers, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.

mkjv@Romans:15:15 @ But, brothers, I wrote to you boldly, as reminding you in part, because of the grace that is given to me by God,

mkjv@Romans:15:16 @ that I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the nations, ministering the gospel of God, so that the offering up of the nations might be acceptable, being sanctified by [the] Holy Spirit.

mkjv@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ did not work out by me for [the] obedience of the nations in word and deed,

mkjv@Romans:15:19 @ in power of miracles and wonders, in power of [the] Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem, and all around to Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.

mkjv@Romans:15:24 @ whenever I may go into Spain, I will come to you. For [in] traveling through I hope to see you, and to be set forward there by you, if first I may be filled of you in part.

mkjv@Romans:15:26 @ For it has pleased those of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints in Jerusalem.

mkjv@Romans:15:27 @ Truly it has pleased them, and they are their debtors. For if the nations have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in fleshly things.

mkjv@Romans:15:29 @ And I am sure that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of [the] blessing of the gospel of Christ.

mkjv@Romans:15:30 @ But I exhort you, brothers, for the sake of the Lord Jesus Christ and for the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in [your] prayers to God for me,

mkjv@Romans:15:32 @ so that [I may] come to you with joy by [the] will of God, and may be refreshed with you.

mkjv@Romans:15:33 @ Now may the God of peace [be] with you all. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church in Cenchrea,

mkjv@Romans:16:2 @ that you receive her in [the] Lord, [as] becomes saints, and that you may assist her in whatever business she has need of you. For she has been a helper of many, and of myself also.

mkjv@Romans:16:4 @ who have laid down their own necks for my life; to whom not only I give thanks, but also the churches of the nations.

mkjv@Romans:16:5 @ Likewise [greet] the church that is in their house. Greet my beloved Epenetus, who is the first-fruits of Achaia to Christ.

mkjv@Romans:16:7 @ Greet Andronicus and Junias, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.

mkjv@Romans:16:10 @ Greet Apelles, approved in Christ. Greet those who are of Aristobulus' [household].

mkjv@Romans:16:11 @ Greet Herodion my kinsman. Greet those who are of the [household] of Narcissus, who are in [the] Lord.

mkjv@Romans:16:16 @ Greet one another with a holy kiss. The churches of Christ greet you.

mkjv@Romans:16:17 @ And I exhort you, brothers, to watch those making divisions and offenses contrary to the doctrine which you have learned, and avoid them.

mkjv@Romans:16:18 @ For they who are such do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches [they] deceive the hearts of the simple.

mkjv@Romans:16:20 @ And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:16:23 @ Gaius my host, and the host of me and the whole church, greets you. Erastus the steward of the city greets you, and Quartus a brother.

mkjv@Romans:16:24 @ May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen.

mkjv@Romans:16:25 @ Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of [the] mystery, having been unvoiced during eternal times;

mkjv@Romans:16:26 @ but now has been made plain, and by the prophetic Scriptures, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, made known to all nations for the obedience of faith;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, a called apostle of Jesus Christ through [the] will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:2 @ to the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called out with all those in every place who call on the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:4 @ I thank my God always on your behalf [for] the grace of God given you in Jesus Christ,

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:6 @ even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:7 @ so that you come behind in no gift, waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:8 @ He shall also confirm you to [the] end, [that you may be] blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:9 @ God [is] faithful, by whom you were called to [the] fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ But I exhort you, brothers, 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.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brothers, by those of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:12 @ But I say this, that every one of you says, I am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ.

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

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:14 @ I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:16 @ And I also baptized the household of Stephanas. Besides these, I do not know if I baptized any other.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:17 @ For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel; not in wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the preaching of the cross is foolishness to those being lost, but to us being saved, [it is] the power of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will set aside the understanding of the perceiving ones.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where [is the] wise? Where [is the] scribe? Where [is the] lawyer of this world? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world [by] wisdom did not know God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:24 @ But to them, the called-out ones, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is] the power of God and the wisdom of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:25 @ Because the foolish thing of God is wiser than men, and the weak thing of God is stronger than men.

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:28 @ and God has chosen the base things of the world, and things which are despised, and things which are not, in order to bring to nothing things that are;

mkjv@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who of God is made to us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification and redemption;

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And I, brothers, when I came to you, did not come with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:4 @ And my speech and my preaching [was] not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the] Spirit and of power,

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:5 @ so that your faith should not stand in [the] wisdom of men, but in [the] power of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:7 @ But we speak [the] wisdom of God in a mystery, which God has hidden, predetermining it before the world for our glory;

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:8 @ which none of the rulers of this world knew (for if they had known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory).

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:9 @ But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor has it entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:10 @ But God has revealed [them] to us by His Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, yea, the deep things of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:11 @ For who among men knows the things of a man except the spirit of man within him? So also no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:12 @ But we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit from God, so that we might know the things that are freely given to us by God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:14 @ But the natural man does not receive the things of [the] Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.

mkjv@1Corinthians:2:16 @ For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct Him? But we have the mind of Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:4 @ For while one says, I am of Paul; and another, I [am] of Apollos; are you not carnal?

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:9 @ For of God we are fellow-workers, a field of God, and you are a building of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:10 @ According to the grace of God which is given to me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds [on it]. But let every man be careful how he builds [on it].

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:16 @ Do you not know that you are a temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwells in you?

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:17 @ If anyone defiles the temple of God, God shall destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which you are.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:19 @ For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God; for it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness.

mkjv@1Corinthians:3:20 @ And again, The] Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:1 @ So let a man think of us as ministers of Christ and stewards of [the] mysteries of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:5 @ Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts. And then shall each one have praise of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:6 @ And these things, brothers, I have [in a figure] transferred to myself and Apollos for your sakes, so that you might learn in us not to think [of men] above that which is written, so that no one of you may [be] puffed up against one another.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ For this cause I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved son and faithful in [the] Lord, who shall remind you [of] my ways which are] in Christ, as I teach everywhere in every church.

mkjv@1Corinthians:4:19 @ But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord wills. And I will not know the speech of those who are puffed up, but the power.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Then concerning the eating of the things sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol [is] nothing in [the] world, and that [there] is no other God except one.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:6 @ but [there is] to us [only] one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we by Him.

mkjv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ But this knowledge [is] not in all. But some being aware of the idol eat as an idolatrous sacrifice until now, and their conscience being weak is defiled.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Or does He say [it] altogether for our sakes? It was written for us, so that he who plows should plow [in] hope, and so that he who threshes [in] hope should be partaker of his hope.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others have a share of [this] authority [over] you, rather [should] not we? But we have not used this authority, but we endured all things lest we should hinder the gospel of Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:13 @ Do you not know that those who minister about holy things live [of the things] of the temple? And those attending the altar are partakers with the altar.

mkjv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have used none of these things, nor have I written these things that it should be done so to me; for [it is] good for me rather to die than that anyone nullify my glorying.

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

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Give no offense, either to the Jews, or to the Greeks or to the church of God;

mkjv@1Corinthians:10:33 @ even as I please all [men] in all [things], not seeking my own profit, but the [profit] of the many, so that they may be saved.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:3 @ But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman [is] the man; and the head of Christ [is] God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:7 @ For a man indeed ought not to have [his] head covered, because he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is [the] glory of [the] man.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:8 @ For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:10 @ For this reason the woman ought to have authority on [her] head because of the angels.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:15 @ But if a woman should have long hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her in place of a veil.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:16 @ But if anyone seems to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the churches of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first of all, when you come together in the church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and I partly believe it.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ For do you not have houses [in which] to eat and drink? Or do you despise the church of God, and shame those who do not have? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? I do not praise [you]!

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same way [He took] the cup also, after supping, saying, This cup is the New Covenant in My blood; as often as you drink it, do this in remembrance of Me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you show the Lord's death until He shall come.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:27 @ So that whoever shall eat this bread and drink [this] cup of the Lord unworthily, he will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:11:28 @ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of [that] bread and drink of that cup.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I make known to you that no one speaking by [the] Spirit of God says Jesus [is] a curse, and [that] no one can say that Jesus [is] Lord, but by the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ But there are differences of gifts, but the same Spirit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ And there are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are differences of workings, but it is the same God working all things in all.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:7 @ But to each one is given the showing forth of the Spirit to [our] profit.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ For through the Spirit is given to one a word of wisdom; and to another a word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ and to another faith by the same Spirit; and to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:10 @ and to another workings of powers, to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; and to another kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:12 @ For as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, [are] one body; so also [is] Christ.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:18 @ But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body as it has pleased Him.

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

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:22 @ But much rather the members of the body seeming to be weaker are necessary.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:23 @ And those [members] of the body which we think to be less honorable, on these we put more abundant honor around [them]. And our unpresentable [members] have more abundant propriety.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:27 @ And you are the body of Christ, and members in part.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God set some in the church, firstly, apostles; secondly, prophets; thirdly, teachers, then works of power, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, kinds of languages.

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:29 @ [Are] all apostles? [Are] all prophets? [Are] all teachers? [Are] all workers of power?

mkjv@1Corinthians:12:30 @ Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak languages? Do all interpret?

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:1 @ Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I have become [as] sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ And though I give out all my goods to feed the poor], and though I deliver my body to be burned, and have not charity, I am profited nothing.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was an infant, I spoke as an infant, I thought as an infant, I reasoned as an infant. But when I became a man, I did away with the things of an infant.

mkjv@1Corinthians:13:13 @ And now faith, hope, charity, these three remain; but the greatest of these [is] charity.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ I wish all of you to speak in languages, but rather that you may prophesy; for greater [is] he prophesying than he speaking in tongues, unless he interpret so that the church may receive building up.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:6 @ But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what will I profit you, except I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in teaching?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:10 @ So it may be many kinds of sounds are in [the] world, and not one [is] without a distinct sound.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:11 @ Therefore if I do not know the power of the sound, I will be a foreigner to him speaking, and he speaking [will be] a foreigner to me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ Even so you, since you are zealots of spiritual [things], seek to build up the church, in order that you may abound

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Else, if you bless in the spirit, he occupying the place of the unlearned, how will he say the amen at your giving of thanks, since he does not know what you say?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:18 @ I thank my God [that] I speak more languages than all of you;

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:25 @ And so the secrets of his heart become revealed. And so, falling down on [his] face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:26 @ Then how is it, brothers? When you come together, each one of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be for building up.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:32 @ And the spirits of the prophets [are] subject to the prophets.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not [the author] of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:36 @ Or did the Word of God go out from you? Or did it reach only to you?

mkjv@1Corinthians:14:37 @ If anyone thinks to be a prophet, or a spiritual one, let him recognize the things I write to you, that they are a commandment of the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received, that Christ died for our sins, according to the Scriptures,

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:6 @ Afterward He was seen by over five hundred brothers at once, of whom the greater part remain until this present day, but also some fell asleep.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:8 @ And last of all He was seen by me also, as one born out of time.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles and am not sufficient to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace which [was] toward me has not been without fruit, but I labored more abundantly than all of them; yet not I, but the grace of God with me.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ But if Christ is proclaimed, that He was raised from [the] dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, neither has Christ been raised.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:15 @ And we are also found [to be] false witnesses of God, because we testified of God that He raised Christ; whom He did not raise if the dead are not raised.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:19 @ If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:20 @ But now Christ has risen from [the] dead, [and] has become the firstfruit of those who slept.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since death [is] through man, the resurrection of [the] dead also [is] through a Man.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:29 @ Otherwise, what will they do, those being baptized on behalf of [the] dead? If the dead are not at all raised, why indeed are they baptized on behalf of [the] dead?

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Be righteously awake, and sin not; for some have ignorance of God. I speak [this] to your shame.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:37 @ And what you sow, you do not sow the body that [is] going to be, but a bare grain (perhaps of wheat or of some of the rest).

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:38 @ And God gives it a body as it has pleased Him, and to each of the seeds its own body.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh [is] not the same flesh; but one [kind of] flesh of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another of fish, and another of birds.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:40 @ [There are] also heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. But the glory of the heavenly [is] truly different, and that of the earthly different;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:41 @ one glory of [the] sun, and another glory of [the] moon, and another glory of [the] stars; for [one] star differs from [another] star in glory.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So also the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption, it is raised in incorruption;

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:47 @ The first man [was] out of earth, earthy; the second Man [was] the Lord from Heaven.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:49 @ And according as we bore the image of the earthy [man], we shall also bear the image of the heavenly [Man].

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:50 @ And I say this, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit [the] kingdom of God, nor does corruption inherit incorruption.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:52 @ in a moment, in a glance of an eye, at the last trumpet. For a trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall all be changed.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:56 @ The sting of death [is] sin, and the strength of sin [is] the law.

mkjv@1Corinthians:15:58 @ So that, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not without fruit in the Lord.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:1 @ And concerning the collection for the saints, as I charged the churches of Galatia, so also you do.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:2 @ On the first of the sabbaths let each of you put by himself, storing up what ever he is prospered, so that there may be no collections when I come.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:10 @ But if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear, for he works the work of the Lord, even as I [do].

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:15 @ But I exhort you, brothers. You know the house of Stephanas, that it is the firstfruit of Achaia, and they appointed themselves to ministry to the saints.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I am glad at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus; for these supplied your lack.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia greet you. Aquila and Priscilla greet you much in [the] Lord, with the church that is in their house.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:21 @ The salutation of Paul with my own hand.

mkjv@1Corinthians:16:23 @ May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you.

mkjv@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.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed [be] God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort,

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:5 @ For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds by Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ And if we are troubled, [it is] for your consolation and salvation, being worked out in [the] endurance of the same sufferings which we also suffer; if we are comforted, [it is] for your consolation and salvation.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:7 @ And our hope of you [is] certain, knowing that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also of the consolation.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For, brothers, we would not have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength; so much so that we despaired even of life.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:9 @ But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, so that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead;

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:11 @ with you also helping together by prayer for us, so that the gracious gift by many persons be [the cause of] thanksgiving through many for us.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity; not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God; we have had our conduct in the world, and more abundantly toward you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:14 @ even as you have recognized us [in] part, that we are your rejoicing, even as you also [are] ours in the day of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us; by me and Silas and Timothy; was not yes and no, but in Him was, yes!

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God in Him [are] yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God by us.

mkjv@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we have dominion over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy; for by faith you stand.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote this to you, lest when I came I should have sorrow from the [ones] of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is [the joy] of you all.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:4 @ For out of much trouble and anguish of heart I wrote to you with many tears, not that you should be grieved, but that you might know the love which I have more abundantly to you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if anyone has caused grief, he has not grieved me, except in part; so that I not overbear all of you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:9 @ For to this end I also wrote, that I might know the proof of you, whether you are obedient in all things.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:10 @ But to whom you forgive anything, I also [forgive]. For if I forgave anything, for your sakes I forgave [it] to him in the person of Christ;

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:11 @ so that we should not be overreached by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his devices.

mkjv@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 went from there into Macedonia.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:14 @ Now thanks [be] to God, who always causes us to triumph in Christ, and He revealing through us the odor of the knowledge of Him in every place.

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are to God a sweet savor of Christ, in those being saved, and in those being lost;

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:16 @ to the one [we are] the savor of death to death, and to the other we are the savor of life to life. And who is sufficient for these things?

mkjv@2Corinthians:2:17 @ For we are not as many, hawking the Word of God; but as of sincerity, but as of God, we speak in Christ in the sight of God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need, like some, epistles of commendation to you, or [letters] of commendation from you?

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:3 @ [it] having been made plain that you are the epistle of Christ, ministered by us, not having been written with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not on tablets of stone, but in fleshly tablets of [the] heart.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:5 @ not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves, but our sufficiency [is] of God;

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:6 @ who also has made us able ministers of the new covenant; not of the letter, but of the spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit makes alive.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:7 @ But if the ministry of death, having been engraved in letters in stone was with glory (so that the sons of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses because of the glory of his face), which was being done away;

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:8 @ shall not the ministry of the Spirit be with more glory?

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:9 @ For if the ministry of condemnation [is] glorious, much more does the ministry of righteousness exceed in glory.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:10 @ For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, because of the glory that excels.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:12 @ Then since we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:13 @ And we are not like Moses, [who] put a veil over his face so that the sons of Israel could not steadfastly look to the end of the thing being done away.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:14 @ (But their thoughts were blinded; for until the present the same veil remains on the reading of the old covenant, not taken away.) But this veil has been done away in Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:17 @ And the Lord [is] that Spirit; and where the Spirit of [the] Lord [is], there [is] liberty.

mkjv@2Corinthians:3:18 @ But we all, with [our] face having been unveiled, having beheld the glory of the Lord as in a mirror, are being changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Lord Spirit.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness, nor adulterating the Word of God, but [by] the revelation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:4 @ in whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving ones, so that the light of the glorious gospel of Christ (who is the image of God) should not dawn on them.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For [it is] God who said, Out of darkness Light shall shine; who shone in our hearts to [give] the brightness of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us;

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always bearing about the dying of the Lord Jesus in the body, so that the life of Jesus also might be revealed in our body.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For we who live are always being delivered to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus might also be revealed in our body.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ For we, having the same spirit of faith (according as it is written, I believed, and therefore I have spoken); we also believed and therefore speak,

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For all things [are] for your sake, so that the superabounding grace might be made to abound through the thanksgiving of the greater number, to the glory of God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:4:17 @ For the lightness of our present affliction works out for us a far more excellent eternal weight of glory,

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:1 @ For we know that if our earthly house of [this] tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:2 @ For indeed in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed with our dwelling-place out of Heaven;

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:5 @ And He who has worked in us for this same thing [is] God, who also [is] giving to us the earnest of the Spirit.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ then we are confident and we are pleased rather to go away from home out of the body, and to come home to the Lord.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:10 @ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive the things done] through the body, according to that which he has done, whether good or bad.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men. But we are revealed to God, and I trust also that we are revealed in your consciences.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we are out of our mind, [it is] to God; or [if] we are in our senses, [it is] for you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:14 @ For the love of Christ constrains us, judging this, that if one died for all, then all died;

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:18 @ And all things [are] of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given to us the ministry of reconciliation;

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:19 @ whereas God was in Christ reconciling [the] world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and putting the word of reconciliation in us.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:20 @ Then we are ambassadors on behalf of Christ, as God exhorting through us, we beseech [you] on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For He has made Him who knew no sin, [to be] sin for us, that we might become [the] righteousness of God in Him.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:1 @ But working together, we also call on you not to receive the grace of God in vain.

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:2 @ (For He says, In an acceptable time I heard you, and in a day of salvation, I helped you; Behold, now [is] the accepted time. Behold, now [is] the day of salvation.)

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:3 @ [We are] in nothing giving cause of stumbling, in no way, so that the ministry may not be blamed,

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:7 @ in [the] word of truth, in [the] power of God, through the weapons of righteousness on the right [hand] and on the left,

mkjv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what agreement does a temple of God [have] with idols? For you are the temple of [the] living God, as God has said, I will dwell in them and walk among [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Then having these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all defilements of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ My boldness of speech [is] great toward you; my glorying on your behalf [is] much. I have been filled with comfort, I am overflowing with joy on all our trouble.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:6 @ But He who comforts the lowly comforted us by the coming of Titus.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:10 @ For the grief according to God works repentance to salvation, not to be regretted, but the grief of the world works out death.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ Then, though I wrote to you, [it was] not on account of the one who did wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered wrong, but for the sake of revealing our earnestness on your behalf, for you before God.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we have been comforted in your comfort, and we rather rejoiced more abundantly over the joy of Titus, because his spirit was refreshed by you all.

mkjv@2Corinthians:7:15 @ And his tender feelings are more abundant toward you, remembering the obedience of you all, as you received him with fear and trembling.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:1 @ And, brothers, we make known to you the grace of God which has been given among the churches of Macedonia;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:2 @ that in much testing of trouble, the overflowing of their joy, and the depth of their poverty, abounded to the riches of their generosity.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:4 @ with much beseeching, begging us [that they might] receive of us the grace and the fellowship of the ministry to the saints.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:5 @ And not as we hoped, but first [they] gave themselves to the Lord, and to us through [the] will of God,

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I do not speak according to command, but through the eagerness of others, and testing the trueness of your love.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich, for your sakes He became poor, in order that you might be made rich through His poverty.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:10 @ And in this I give [my] judgment; for this is profitable for you, who began before, not only to do, but also to be willing a year ago.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ But now also finish the doing [of it], so that, as [there was] a readiness to will, so also the finishing, [giving] out of [what] you have.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks [be] to God, who put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For indeed he accepted the entreaty. But being more earnest, of his own accord he went to you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only [so], but also he having been chosen by the churches to travel with us with this gift, which is administered by us to the glory of the Lord Himself, and [as a witness of] your eager mind;

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often proved earnest in many things, but now much more earnest by the great confidence which [I have] in you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ If anyone inquires of Titus, [he is] my partner and fellow-worker for you, or [of] our brothers, [they are] the messengers of the churches, [the] glory of Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:8:24 @ Therefore show them a proof of your love and of our boasting toward you in the presence of the churches.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:2 @ For I know your eagerness, of which I boast to Macedonia on your behalf, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has aroused the greater number.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ Therefore I thought [it] necessary to exhort the brothers that they would go forward to you, and make up beforehand your blessing, it having been promised that this would be ready, thus as a matter of] blessing, and not as of covetousness.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:7 @ Each one, as he purposes in his heart, [let him give]; not of grief, or of necessity, for God loves a cheerful giver.

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:10 @ Now He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for eating, may He supply and multiply your seed, and increase the fruits of your righteousness

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:12 @ For the ministry of this service not only supplies the things lacking of the saints, but also multiplying through many thanksgivings to God,

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ through the proof of this ministry [they] glorify God for your freely expressed submission to the gospel of Christ, and the generosity of the fellowship toward them and toward all,

mkjv@2Corinthians:9:14 @ and [in] their prayer for you, who long after you, because of the exceeding grace of God on you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ And I myself, Paul, beseech you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ; I, who indeed to look upon [am] lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ But I ask, not being present, that I may be bold with the confidence which I think to be daring against some, who thought [of] us as walking according to flesh.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:4 @ For the weapons of our warfare [are] not fleshly, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds,

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:5 @ pulling down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought into the obedience of Christ;

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I also should boast somewhat more fully of our authority (which the Lord has given us for building up, and not for pulling you down) I will not be put to shame;

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we do not dare to rank or compare ourselves with some of the ones commending themselves. But they, measuring themselves among themselves, and comparing themselves to themselves, are not perceptive.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:13 @ But we will not boast beyond measure, but according to the measure of the rule which the God of measure distributed to us, to reach even to you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we do not overstretch ourselves as [though] not reaching to you. For we also came to you in the gospel of Christ;

mkjv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ not boasting beyond measure in the labors of others, but having hope that the growing faith among you will be increased according to our rule, to overflowing;

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:7 @ Or did I commit sin in humbling myself that you might be exalted, because I preached the gospel of God to you without charge?

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I stripped other churches, taking wages for the serving of you.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:10 @ The truth of Christ is in me that this boasting shall not be silenced in me in the regions of Achaia.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:12 @ But what I do, that I will do, so that I may cut off occasion from those who desire occasion; so that in the thing in which they boast, they may be found even as we.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:13 @ For such ones [are] false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:14 @ Did not even Satan marvelously transform himself into an angel of light?

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:15 @ Therefore [it is] no great thing if his ministers also transform themselves as ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:17 @ What I speak, I do not speak according to the Lord, but as in foolishness, in this boldness of boasting.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? I also! Are they Israelites? I also! Are they the seed of Abraham? I also!

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as beside myself,) I [am] more! [I have been] in labors more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in prisons more, in deaths many times.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ I have been in travels often; in dangers from waters; in dangers from robbers; in dangers from [my] race; in dangers from [the] heathen; in dangers in [the] city; in dangers in [ the] wilderness; in dangers on [the sea; in dangers among false brothers.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:27 @ [I have been] in hardship and toil; often in watchings; in hunger and thirst; often in fastings; in cold and nakedness;

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:28 @ besides the things outside conspiring against me daily, the care of all the churches.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:30 @ If it is right to boast, I will boast [of] the things of my weakness.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I do not lie.

mkjv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the governor under Aretas the king guarded the city of [the] Damascenes, desiring to lay hold of me.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:1 @ Indeed, it is not profitable for me to boast. For I will come to visions and revelations of [the] Lord.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ fourteen years before (whether in [the] body, I do not know; or outside of [the] body, I do not know; God knows) such a one [was] caught up to [the] third Heaven.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:3 @ And I know such a man (whether in the body, or outside of the body, I do not know; God knows),

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:5 @ I will glory of such a one, yet I will not boast on my behalf, except in my weaknesses.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:6 @ For if I desire to boast, I shall not be foolish. For I will speak the truth. But I spare, lest anyone should think of me as [being] beyond what he sees me, or hears of me;

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:7 @ and by the surpassing revelations, lest I be made haughty, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be made haughty.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:9 @ And He said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may overshadow me.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have become foolish boasting. You compelled me. For I ought to be commended by you. For I lacked nothing of the highest apostles, if even I am nothing.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ Truly the signs of the apostle were worked out among you in all patience, in miracles and in wonders, and by works of power.

mkjv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For what is it in which you were inferior to the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ I am coming to you this third [time]. In the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established.

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:3 @ Since you seek a proof of Christ speaking in me (who is not weak toward you, but is powerful in you;

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:4 @ for even if He was crucified out of weakness, yet He lives by [the] power of God. For indeed even we are weak in Him, but we shall live with Him by [the] power of God toward you),

mkjv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brothers, rejoice. Perfect yourselves; encourage yourselves; mind the same thing; be at peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

mkjv@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brothers with me, to the churches of Galatia.

mkjv@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave Himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world according to the will of God and our Father,

mkjv@Galatians:1:6 @ I marvel that you so soon are being moved away from Him who called you into [the] grace of Christ, to another gospel,

mkjv@Galatians:1:7 @ which is not another, but some are troubling you, and desiring to pervert the gospel of Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:1:10 @ For now do I persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men, I would not be a servant of Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught [it] except by a revelation of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you heard my manner of life when [I was] in Judaism, that I persecuted the church of God with surpassing [zeal], and ravaged it.

mkjv@Galatians:1:14 @ And I progressed in Judaism beyond many contemporaries in my race, being much more a zealot of the traditions of my fathers.

mkjv@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw no other of the apostles, except James the Lord's brother.

mkjv@Galatians:1:21 @ Then I went into the regions of Syria and of Cilicia,

mkjv@Galatians:1:22 @ and was unknown by face to the churches of Judea in Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:2:4 @ But because of those false brothers stealing in, who stole in to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus; they desiring to enslave us;

mkjv@Galatians:2:5 @ to whom not even for an hour did we yield in subjection, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

mkjv@Galatians:2:6 @ But from those who seemed to be something (what kind they were then does not matter to me; God does not accept the face of man), for those seeming [important] conferred nothing to me.

mkjv@Galatians:2:7 @ But on the contrary, seeing that I have been entrusted [with] the gospel of the uncircumcision, as Peter to the circumcision;

mkjv@Galatians:2:8 @ for He working in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision also worked in me to the nations.

mkjv@Galatians:2:9 @ and knowing the grace given to me, James, and Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, gave right hands of fellowship to Barnabas and me, that we [go] to the nations, but they to the circumcision.

mkjv@Galatians:2:12 @ For before some came from James, he ate with the nations. But when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those of the circumcision.

mkjv@Galatians:2:13 @ And the rest of the Jews also dissembled with him, so as even Barnabas was led away with their dissembling.

mkjv@Galatians:2:14 @ But when I saw that they did not walk uprightly with the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter before all, If you, being a Jew, live as a Gentile, and not as the Jews, why do you compel [the] nations to judaize?

mkjv@Galatians:2:15 @ We Jews by nature, and not sinners of the nations,

mkjv@Galatians:2:16 @ knowing that a man is not justified by works of the Law, but through faith [in] Jesus Christ; even we believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith in Christ, and not by works of the Law. For all flesh will not be justified by works of law.

mkjv@Galatians:2:17 @ But if, while we seek to be justified in Christ, we also were found [to be] sinners, [is] Christ therefore a minister of sin? Let it not be [said]!

mkjv@Galatians:2:20 @ I have been crucified with Christ, and I live; [yet] no longer I, but Christ lives in me. And [that] life I now live in the flesh, I live by faith toward the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself on my behalf.

mkjv@Galatians:2:21 @ I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness [is] through law, then Christ died without cause.

mkjv@Galatians:3:2 @ This only I would learn from you: Did you receive the Spirit by works of [the] law, or by hearing of faith?

mkjv@Galatians:3:5 @ Then He supplying the Spirit to you and working powerful works in you, [is it] by works of [the] law, or by hearing of faith?

mkjv@Galatians:3:7 @ Therefore know that those of faith, these are the sons of Abraham.

mkjv@Galatians:3:9 @ So then those of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.

mkjv@Galatians:3:10 @ For as many as are out of works of the Law, these are under a curse; for it is written, Cursed [is] everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the Book of the Law, to do them.

mkjv@Galatians:3:11 @ But that no one is justified by the Law in the sight of God [is] clear, for, The just shall live by faith.

mkjv@Galatians:3:12 @ But the Law is not of faith; but, The man who does these things shall live in them.

mkjv@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the Law, being made a curse for us (for it is written, Cursed [is] everyone having been hanged on a tree);

mkjv@Galatians:3:14 @ so that the blessing of Abraham might be to the nations in Jesus Christ, and that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

mkjv@Galatians:3:16 @ And to Abraham and to his Seed the promises were spoken. It does not say, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your Seed, which is Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance [is] of Law, [it is] no more of promise; but God gave [it] to Abraham by way of promise.

mkjv@Galatians:3:19 @ Why then the Law? It was added because of transgressions, until the Seed should come [to those] to whom it had been promised, being ordained through angels in the Mediator's hand.

mkjv@Galatians:3:20 @ But the Mediator is not [a mediator] of one, but God is one.

mkjv@Galatians:3:21 @ [Is] the Law then against the promises of God? Let it not be [said]! For if a law had been given which could have given life, indeed righteousness would have been out of Law.

mkjv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the Scripture shut up all under sin, so that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

mkjv@Galatians:3:24 @ So that the Law has become a trainer of us until Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

mkjv@Galatians:3:26 @ For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Galatians:4:1 @ But I say, Over so long a time the heir is an infant, he does not differ from a slave, though being lord of all;

mkjv@Galatians:4:3 @ Even so we, when we were infants, were in bondage under the elements of the world.

mkjv@Galatians:4:4 @ But when the fullness of the time came, God sent forth His Son, coming into being out of a woman, having come under Law,

mkjv@Galatians:4:5 @ that He might redeem those under Law, so that we might receive the adoption of sons.

mkjv@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of His Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

mkjv@Galatians:4:7 @ So that you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, also an heir of God through Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:4:13 @ But you know that through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel to you before,

mkjv@Galatians:4:14 @ and you did not despise my temptation in my flesh, nor did you spurn [it]. But you received me as an angel of God, as Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written: Abraham had two sons, the one out of the slave-woman, and one out of the free woman.

mkjv@Galatians:4:23 @ But, indeed, he out of the slave-woman has been born according to flesh, and he out of the free woman through the promise;

mkjv@Galatians:4:26 @ But the Jerusalem [from] above is free, who is the mother of us all.

mkjv@Galatians:4:27 @ For it is written, Rejoice, barren one not bearing; break forth and shout, you not travailing; for more are the children of the desolate than she having the husband.

mkjv@Galatians:4:28 @ But brothers, we, like Isaac, are children of promise.

mkjv@Galatians:4:30 @ But what does the Scripture say? Cast out the slave-woman and her son; for in no way shall the son of the slave-woman inherit with the son of the free woman.

mkjv@Galatians:4:31 @ Then, brothers, we are not children of a slave-woman, but of the free woman.

mkjv@Galatians:5:1 @ Stand fast therefore in the liberty with which Christ has made us free, and do not again be held with the yoke of bondage.

mkjv@Galatians:5:2 @ Behold, I, Paul, say to you that if you are circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.

mkjv@Galatians:5:4 @ you who are justified by Law are deprived of all effect from Christ; you fell from grace.

mkjv@Galatians:5:5 @ For we through [the] Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness out of faith.

mkjv@Galatians:5:11 @ And I, brothers, if I yet proclaim circumcision, why am I still persecuted? Then the offense of the Cross has ceased.

mkjv@Galatians:5:12 @ I wish that those causing you to doubt will cut themselves off.

mkjv@Galatians:5:16 @ I say, then, Walk in [the] Spirit and you shall not fulfill [the] lusts of [the] flesh.

mkjv@Galatians:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are clearly revealed, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lustfulness,

mkjv@Galatians:5:21 @ envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revelings, and things like these; of which I tell you before, as I also said before, that they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

mkjv@Galatians:5:22 @ But the fruit of the Spirit is: love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faith,

mkjv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brothers, if a man is overtaken in a fault, you the spiritual ones restore such a one in the spirit of meekness, considering yourself, lest you also be tempted.

mkjv@Galatians:6:2 @ Bear one another's burdens, and so you will fulfill the law of Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:6:10 @ So then as we have time, let us work good toward all, especially toward those of the household of faith.

mkjv@Galatians:6:12 @ As many as desire to look well in [the] flesh, these compel you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.

mkjv@Galatians:6:14 @ But may it never be for me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world.

mkjv@Galatians:6:16 @ And as many as walk according to this rule, peace and mercy [be] upon them and upon the Israel of God.

mkjv@Galatians:6:17 @ For the rest, let no one give troubles to me, for I bear in my body the brands of the Lord Jesus.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, to the saints who are in Ephesus, and faithful in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenlies in Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:1:4 @ according as He chose us in Him before [the] foundation of [the] world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:6 @ to [the] praise of [the] glory of His grace, in which He has made us accepted in the [One] having been loved.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:7 @ In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:9 @ having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He purposed in Himself,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:10 @ for an administration of the fullness of times, to head up all things in Christ, both the things in Heaven, and the things on earth, [even] in Him,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:11 @ in whom also we have been chosen to an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His own will,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:12 @ for us to be to [the] praise of His glory, who previously had trusted in Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:1:13 @ in whom also you, hearing the word of truth, the gospel of our salvation, in whom also believing, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:14 @ who is the earnest of our inheritance, to [the] redemption of the purchased possession, to [the] praise of His glory.

mkjv@Ephesians:1:15 @ Therefore I also, hearing of your faith in the Lord Jesus and love to all the saints,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:16 @ do not cease giving thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers,

mkjv@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,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:18 @ the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, that you may know what is the hope of His calling, and what is the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints,

mkjv@Ephesians:1:19 @ and what [is] the surpassing greatness of His power toward us, the ones believing according to the working of His mighty strength

mkjv@Ephesians:1:23 @ which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now works in the children of disobedience;

mkjv@Ephesians:2:3 @ among whom we also had our way of life in times past, in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the thoughts, and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:7 @ so that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in [His] kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you are saved through faith, and that not of yourselves, [it is] the gift of God,

mkjv@Ephesians:2:9 @ not of works, lest anyone should boast.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:12 @ and that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:13 @ But now in Christ Jesus you who were once afar off are made near by the blood of Christ.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:14 @ For He is our peace, He making us both one, and [He] has broken down the middle wall of partition [between us],

mkjv@Ephesians:2:15 @ having abolished in His flesh the enmity (the Law of commandments [contained] in ordinances) so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, making peace [between them];

mkjv@Ephesians:2:17 @ And He came and preached peace to you who were afar off, and to those who were near.

mkjv@Ephesians:2:19 @ Now therefore you are no longer strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,

mkjv@Ephesians:2:20 @ and are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being [the] chief cornerstone,

mkjv@Ephesians:2:22 @ in whom you also are built together for a dwelling place of God through [the] Spirit.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:1 @ For this cause, I, Paul, am the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you nations,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:2 @ if you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given to me toward you,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:4 @ by which, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)

mkjv@Ephesians:3:5 @ which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it is now revealed to His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:6 @ that the nations should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partaker of His promise in Christ through the gospel.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:7 @ Of this [gospel] I was made a minister, according to the gift of the grace of God given to me by the effectual working of His power.

mkjv@Ephesians:3:8 @ This grace is given to me ( who am] less than the least of all saints) to preach the gospel of the unsearchable riches of Christ among the nations,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:9 @ and to bring to light what [is] the fellowship of the mystery which from eternity has been hidden in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:3:10 @ so that now to the rulers and powers in the heavenlies might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:14 @ For this cause I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:15 @ of whom the whole family in Heaven and earth is named,

mkjv@Ephesians:3:16 @ that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man;

mkjv@Ephesians:3:19 @ and to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fullness of God.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:1 @ I therefore, the prisoner in [the] Lord, beseech you that you walk worthy of the calling with which you are called,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:3 @ endeavoring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:4 @ [There is] one body and one Spirit, even as you are called in one hope of your calling,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:6 @ one God and Father of all, who [is] above all and through all and in you all.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:7 @ But to every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:9 @ (Now that He ascended, what is it but that He also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?

mkjv@Ephesians:4:12 @ for the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:13 @ And this until we all come into the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a full-grown man, to [the] measure of [the] stature of the fullness of Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:4:14 @ so that we no longer may be infants, tossed to and fro and carried about by every wind of doctrine, in the dishonesty of men, in cunning craftiness, to the wiles of deceit.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:16 @ from whom the whole body, fitted together and compacted by that which every joint supplies, according to [the] effectual working in the measure of each part, producing the growth of the body to the edifying of itself in love.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:17 @ This I say therefore, and testify in [the] Lord, that you should not walk from now on as other nations walk, in [the] vanity of their mind,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:18 @ having the understanding darkened, being alienated [from] the life of God through the ignorance that is in them, because of the blindness of their heart.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:22 @ For you ought to put off the old man (according to your way of living before) who is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts,

mkjv@Ephesians:4:23 @ and be renewed in the spirit of your mind.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:25 @ Therefore putting away lying, let each man speak truth with his neighbor, for we are members of one another.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let not any filthy word go out of your mouth, but if any [is] good to building up [in respect of] need, that it may give grace to the ones hearing.

mkjv@Ephesians:4:30 @ And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you are sealed until [the] day of redemption.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:1 @ Therefore be followers of God, as dear children.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:2 @ And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us, and has given Himself for us as an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savor.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:4 @ neither baseness, foolish talking, jesting, which are not becoming, but rather giving of thanks.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:5 @ For you know this, that no fornicator, or unclean person, or covetous [one] (who is an idolater), has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:6 @ Let no man deceive you with vain words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the children of disobedience.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:8 @ For you were once darkness, but now [you are] light in [the] Lord; walk as children of light

mkjv@Ephesians:5:9 @ (for the fruit of the Spirit [is] in all goodness and righteousness and truth),

mkjv@Ephesians:5:11 @ And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove [them].

mkjv@Ephesians:5:12 @ For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:17 @ Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord [is].

mkjv@Ephesians:5:20 @ always giving thanks for all things to God [the] Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Ephesians:5:21 @ submitting yourselves to one another in the fear of God.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:23 @ For the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ [is] the head of the church; and He is the Savior of the body.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:26 @ that He might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the Word,

mkjv@Ephesians:5:30 @ For we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:31 @ For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be joined to his wife, and the two of them shall be one flesh.

mkjv@Ephesians:5:33 @ But also let everyone of you in particular so love his wife even as himself, and the wife that she defers to her husband.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:4 @ And fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, obey [your] masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as to Christ;

mkjv@Ephesians:6:6 @ not with eye-service, as men-pleasers, but as the servants of Christ, doing the will of God from [the] heart,

mkjv@Ephesians:6:9 @ And masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatening, knowing that your Master also is in Heaven. There is no respect of persons with Him.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:10 @ Finally, my brothers, be strong in [the] Lord and in the power of His might.

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

mkjv@Ephesians:6:12 @ For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the world's rulers, of the darkness of this age, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].

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

mkjv@Ephesians:6:14 @ Therefore stand, having your loins girded about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness

mkjv@Ephesians:6:15 @ and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:16 @ Above all, take the shield of faith, with which you shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

mkjv@Ephesians:6:17 @ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God,

mkjv@Ephesians:6:19 @ And pray for me, that utterance may be given to me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel,

mkjv@Philippians:1:1 @ Paul and Timothy, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are at Philippi, with the overseers and deacons.

mkjv@Philippians:1:3 @ I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,

mkjv@Philippians:1:4 @ always in every prayer of mine making [my] request for you all with joy

mkjv@Philippians:1:6 @ being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will perform [it] until the day of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Philippians:1:7 @ even as it is righteous for me to think this of you all, because you have me in your heart, inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you are all partakers of my grace.

mkjv@Philippians:1:8 @ For God is my witness how greatly I long after you all in [the] bowels of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Philippians:1:10 @ that you may distinguish [between] things that differ, that you may be sincere and without offense until the day of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Philippians:1:11 @ being filled [with the] fruits of righteousness through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

mkjv@Philippians:1:12 @ But I desire that you should understand, brothers, that the things [which happened] to me have fallen out rather to [the] furtherance of the gospel;

mkjv@Philippians:1:14 @ And most of the brothers in [the] Lord, becoming confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.

mkjv@Philippians:1:15 @ Some indeed even preach Christ because of envy and strife, and some also of good will.

mkjv@Philippians:1:16 @ Those, indeed, preach Christ out of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds.

mkjv@Philippians:1:17 @ But these [others] preach in love, knowing that I am set for the defense of the gospel.

mkjv@Philippians:1:19 @ For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer and [the] supply of [the] Spirit of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@Philippians:1:22 @ But if [I] live in [the] flesh, this [is] the fruit of [my] labor. Yet I do not know what I shall choose.

mkjv@Philippians:1:25 @ And having this confidence, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all, for your advancement and joy of faith,

mkjv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your conduct be as becomes the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you, or else am absent, I may hear of your [affairs], that you stand fast in one spirit, striving together with one mind for the faith of the gospel,

mkjv@Philippians:1:28 @ and terrified in nothing by your adversaries. [For this is] to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.

mkjv@Philippians:1:29 @ For to you it is given on behalf of Christ not only to believe on Him, but also to suffer for His sake,

mkjv@Philippians:2:1 @ If [there is] therefore any encouragement in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of [the] Spirit, if any tendernesses and mercies,

mkjv@Philippians:2:2 @ then fulfill my joy, that you may be like-minded, having the same love, [being] of one accord and of one mind.

mkjv@Philippians:2:3 @ [Let] nothing [be done] through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than themselves.

mkjv@Philippians:2:4 @ Do not let each man look upon his own things, but each man also [on] the things of others.

mkjv@Philippians:2:6 @ who, being in the form of God, thought [it] not robbery to be equal with God,

mkjv@Philippians:2:7 @ but made Himself of no reputation, and took [upon Himself] the form of a servant, and was made in [the] likeness of men.

mkjv@Philippians:2:8 @ And being found in fashion as a man, He humbled Himself [and] became obedient unto death, even [the] death of the cross.

mkjv@Philippians:2:10 @ that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of heavenly ones, and of earthly ones, and of ones under [the] earth;

mkjv@Philippians:2:11 @ and [that] every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ [is] Lord, to [the] glory of God [the] Father.

mkjv@Philippians:2:13 @ For it is God who works in you both to will and to do of [His] good pleasure.

mkjv@Philippians:2:15 @ so that you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation. Among these you shine as lights in the world,

mkjv@Philippians:2:16 @ holding forth the word of life, so that I may rejoice with you in [the] day of Christ, that I have not run in vain nor labored in vain.

mkjv@Philippians:2:17 @ Yea, and if I am offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy and rejoice with you all.

mkjv@Philippians:2:19 @ But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy shortly to you, so that I also may be of good comfort when I know [your state].

mkjv@Philippians:2:21 @ For all seek their own, not the things which are of Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Philippians:2:22 @ But you know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he has served with me in the gospel.

mkjv@Philippians:2:26 @ For he longed after you all and was full of heaviness, because you had heard that he had been sick.

mkjv@Philippians:2:30 @ because for the work of Christ he was near death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.

mkjv@Philippians:3:2 @ Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision party.

mkjv@Philippians:3:5 @ I was circumcised [the] eighth day, of [the] stock of Israel, [of the] tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews. As regards the Law, [I was] a Pharisee;

mkjv@Philippians:3:8 @ But no, rather, I also count all things to be loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them [to be] dung, so that I may win Christ

mkjv@Philippians:3:9 @ and be found in Him; not having my own righteousness, which is of the Law, but through [the] faith of Christ, the righteousness of God by faith,

mkjv@Philippians:3:10 @ that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection and the fellowship of His sufferings, being made conformable to His death;

mkjv@Philippians:3:11 @ if by any means I might attain to the resurrection of the dead.

mkjv@Philippians:3:12 @ Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect, but I am pressing on, if I may lay hold of that for which I also was taken hold of by Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Philippians:3:14 @ I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Philippians:3:15 @ Let us therefore, as many as [are] perfect, be of this mind. And if in anything you are otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this to you.

mkjv@Philippians:3:17 @ Brothers, be imitators together of me, and mark those who walk this way, for you have us [for] a pattern.

mkjv@Philippians:3:18 @ (For many are walking, of whom I have told you often and now tell you even weeping, [as] the enemies of the cross of Christ;

mkjv@Philippians:3:21 @ who shall change our body of humiliation so that it may be fashioned like His glorious body, according to the working of His power, even to subdue all things to Himself.

mkjv@Philippians:4:2 @ I beg Euodia and Syntyche that they be of the same mind in [the] Lord.

mkjv@Philippians:4:3 @ And I also beg you, true yoke-fellow, help those women who labored in the gospel with me and with Clement, and others of my fellow-laborers, whose names [are] in the Book of Life.

mkjv@Philippians:4:7 @ And the peace of God which passes all understanding shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.

mkjv@Philippians:4:8 @ Finally, my brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things [are] honest, whatever [things are] right, whatever [things are] pure, whatever [things are] lovely, whatever things are] of good report; if there is] any virtue and if [there is] any praise, think on these things.

mkjv@Philippians:4:9 @ Do those things which you have also learned and received and heard and seen in me. And the God of peace shall be with you.

mkjv@Philippians:4:10 @ But I rejoiced in [the] Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me has flourished again. Although you indeed did think, but you lacked opportunity.

mkjv@Philippians:4:15 @ Now you Philippians know also that in [the] beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as regards giving and receiving, except you alone.

mkjv@Philippians:4:18 @ But I have all, and abound. I have been filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things [which you sent], an odor of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable and well-pleasing to God.

mkjv@Philippians:4:22 @ All the saints greet you, most of all those who are of Caesar's household.

mkjv@Colossians:1:9 @ For this cause we also, since the day we heard, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that you might be filled [with] the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:4 @ knowing, beloved brothers, your election of God.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ For our gospel did not come to you in word only, but also in power and in [the] Holy Spirit, and in much assurance, as you know what kind [of men] we were among you for your sake.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:6 @ And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, welcoming the word in much affliction, with joy of [the] Holy Spirit,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For from you the Word of the Lord sounded out, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God has gone out, so that we do not need to speak anything.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves witness what kind of entrance we had to you, even how you turned from idols to God in order to serve the] living and true God,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ But also suffering before, being insulted in Philippi, as you know, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God in much agony.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our exhortation [to you was] not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For neither at any time did we use flattering words, as you know, nor with pretense of covetousness; God [is] witness.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Nor did we seek glory from men, neither from you nor from others, being able to be [so] with heaviness, as apostles of Christ.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So affectionately longing for you, we were willing to have imparted to you, not only the gospel of God, but also our own souls, because you have become beloved to us.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For, brothers, you remember our labor and toil. [For] laboring night and day in order not to put a burden on any one of you, we preached the gospel of God to you.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ even as you know how we exhorted and comforted and testified to each one of you, as a father to his children,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ that you should walk worthy of God, who has called you to His kingdom and glory.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:13 @ And for this cause we thank God without ceasing, that when you received [the] Word of hearing, of God, you welcomed [it as] the Word of God, not as a word of men, but [as] it is, truly [the] Word of God, which also effectually works in you who believe.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brothers, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus. For you also have suffered these things by [your] own countrymen, even as they also by the Jews;

mkjv@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what [is] our hope or joy, or crown of rejoicing? [Are] you not even [to be] in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming?

mkjv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ And we sent Timothy, our brother and minister of God, and our fellow laborer in the gospel of Christ, to establish you and to comfort you concerning your faith,

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:5 @ (not in the passion of lust, even as the nations who do not know God),

mkjv@1Thessalonians:4:16 @ For the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ shall rise first.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:1 @ But of the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that I write to you.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know accurately that the day of [the] Lord comes like a thief in the night.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:5 @ You are all the sons of light and the sons of the day. We are not of the night, or of darkness.

mkjv@1Thessalonians:5:8 @ But let us, who are of the day, be calm, having put on [the] breastplate of faith and love and [the] hope of salvation [for] a helmet.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ so much so that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God, for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations which you endure.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:1:5 @ For [this is] a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God for which you also suffer,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:10 @ and with all deceit of unrighteousness in those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, so that they might be saved.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:2:13 @ But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brothers beloved of the Lord, because God has from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of [the] Spirit and belief of [the] truth,

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:1 @ Finally, my brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have [free] course and be glorified, even as [it] also is] with you.

mkjv@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ And may the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patience of Christ.

mkjv@Philemon:1:15 @ For perhaps because of this he was separated from you for an hour, that you should receive him eternally,

mkjv@Philemon:1:25 @ May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Amen.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:2 @ has in these last days spoken to us by His] Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds,

mkjv@Hebrews:1:3 @ who being the shining splendor of [His] glory, and the express image of His essence, and upholding all things by the word of His power, through Himself cleansing of our sins, [He] sat down on [the] right of the Majesty on high,

mkjv@Hebrews:1:5 @ For to which of the angels did He say at any time, You are My Son, this day I have begotten You? And again, I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son?

mkjv@Hebrews:1:6 @ And again, when He brings in the First-born into the world, He says, And let all [the] angels of God worship Him.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:7 @ And of the angels He says, Who makes His angels spirits and His ministers a flame of fire.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:8 @ But to the Son [He says], Your throne, O God, [is] forever and ever. A scepter of righteousness [is] the scepter of Your kingdom.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:9 @ You have loved righteousness and hated iniquity, therefore God, Your God, has anointed You with the oil of gladness above Your fellows.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:10 @ And, You, Lord, have laid the foundation of the earth in the beginning, and the heavens are the works of Your hands.

mkjv@Hebrews:1:13 @ But to which of the angels, did He say at any time, Sit on My right hand until I make Your enemies Your footstool?

mkjv@Hebrews:1:14 @ Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for those who shall be heirs of salvation?

mkjv@Hebrews:2:2 @ For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and if every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward,

mkjv@Hebrews:2:4 @ God [also] bearing [them] witness, both with signs and wonders, and with different kinds of miracles and gifts [of the] Holy Spirit, according to His own will?

mkjv@Hebrews:2:5 @ For He has not put in subjection to the angels the world to come, of which we speak.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:6 @ But one testified in a certain place, saying, What is man, that You are mindful of him; or the son of man, that You visit him?

mkjv@Hebrews:2:7 @ You have made him a little lower than [the] angels. You crowned him with glory and honor and set him over the works of Your hands.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:9 @ But we see Jesus, who [was] made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor, that He by [the] grace of God should taste death for every [son].

mkjv@Hebrews:2:10 @ For it became Him, for whom [are] all things and by whom [are] all things, in bringing many sons into glory, to perfect the Captain of their salvation through sufferings.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:11 @ For both He who sanctifies and they who are sanctified [are] all of One, for which cause He is not ashamed to call them brothers,

mkjv@Hebrews:2:12 @ saying, I will declare Your name to My brothers; in the midst of the assembly I will sing praise to You.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since then the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise partook of the same; that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death (that is, the Devil),

mkjv@Hebrews:2:15 @ and deliver those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:16 @ For truly He did not take [the nature of] angels, but He took hold of [the] seed of Abraham.

mkjv@Hebrews:2:17 @ Therefore in all things it behoved him to be made like [His] brothers, that He might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of [His] people.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brothers, called [to be] partakers of the heavenly [calling], consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus,

mkjv@Hebrews:3:3 @ For He was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, because he who has built the house has more honor than the house.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:5 @ And Moses truly [was] faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken afterward.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:6 @ But Christ [was faithful] as a Son over his own house; whose house we are, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm to the end.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:8 @ do not harden your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness,

mkjv@Hebrews:3:12 @ Take heed, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from [the] living God.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:13 @ But exhort one another daily, while it is called today, lest any of you be hardened through [the] deceitfulness of sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast to [the] end,

mkjv@Hebrews:3:16 @ For some, when they had heard, did provoke; however, not all who came out of Egypt by Moses.

mkjv@Hebrews:3:19 @ So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:1 @ Therefore, a promise being left to enter into His rest, let us fear lest any of you should seem to come short of it.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:2 @ For also we have had the gospel preached, as well as them. But the word [preached] did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard [it].

mkjv@Hebrews:4:3 @ For we who have believed do enter into the rest, as He said, I have sworn in My wrath that they should not enter into My rest; although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:4 @ For He spoke in a certain place of the seventh [day] in this way: And God rested the seventh day from all His works.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:6 @ Since then it remains that some must enter into it, and since they to whom it was first preached did not enter in because of unbelief,

mkjv@Hebrews:4:8 @ For if Joshua had given them rest, then He would not afterward have spoken of another day.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:9 @ So then there remains a rest to the people of God.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:11 @ Therefore let us labor to enter into that rest, lest anyone fall after the same example of unbelief.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:12 @ For the word of God [is] living and powerful and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to [the] dividing apart of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:13 @ Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in His sight, but all things [are] naked and opened to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:14 @ Since then we have a great High Priest who has passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast [our] profession.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we do not have a high priest who cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities, but was in all points tempted just as [we are, yet] without sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:4:16 @ Therefore let us come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:1 @ For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in the things [pertaining] to God, so that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,

mkjv@Hebrews:5:2 @ who can have compassion on the ignorant and on those who are out of the way. For he himself also is compassed with weakness.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:3 @ And because of this he should, as for the people, so also for himself, offer for sins.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:4 @ And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called of God, as Aaron [was].

mkjv@Hebrews:5:6 @ As He says also in another [place], You [are] a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:7 @ [For Jesus], in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications with strong cryings and tears to Him who was able to save Him from death, and was heard in that He feared,

mkjv@Hebrews:5:9 @ And being perfected, He became [the] Author of eternal salvation to all those who obey Him,

mkjv@Hebrews:5:10 @ being called by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek;

mkjv@Hebrews:5:11 @ of whom we [have] much to say, and hard to be explained since you are dull of hearing.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:12 @ For indeed because of the time, you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again what [are] the first principles of the oracles of God. And you have become [in] need of milk, and not of solid food.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:13 @ For everyone partaking of milk [is] unskillful [in the] word of righteousness, for he is an infant.

mkjv@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, [even] those who because of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore, having left the discourse of the beginning of Christ, let us go on to full growth, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:2 @ of [the] baptisms, of doctrine, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:4 @ For [it is] impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of [the] Holy Spirit,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:5 @ and have tasted [the] good Word of God and [the] powers of the world to come,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:6 @ and who have fallen away; it is impossible, I say, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify the Son of God afresh to themselves and put [Him] to an open shame.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:7 @ (For the earth which drinks in the rain that comes often upon it, and brings forth plants fit for those by whom it is dressed, receives blessing from God.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:9 @ But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you and things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this way.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God [is] not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire that each one of you show the same eagerness to the full assurance of hope to [the] end,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:12 @ that you be not slothful, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:16 @ For men truly swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation [is] to them an end of all strife.

mkjv@Hebrews:6:17 @ In this way desiring to declare more fully to the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, God interposed by an oath,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:19 @ which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters into that within the veil,

mkjv@Hebrews:6:20 @ where the Forerunner has entered for us, even] Jesus, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this Melchizedek, king of Salem and priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:2 @ To him Abraham also gave a tenth of all. [He was] first by interpretation king of righteousness, and after that also king of Salem, which is king of peace,

mkjv@Hebrews:7:3 @ without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, [he] remains a priest continually.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:4 @ Now consider how great this man [was], to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:5 @ And truly they [who are] of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priest, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the Law, that is, from their brothers, though they come out of the loins of Abraham.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:8 @ And here men who die receive tithes; but there he [receives them], of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:10 @ For he was still in the loins of his father when Melchizedek met him.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Therefore if perfection were by the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the Law), what further need [was there] that another priest should rise after the order of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron?

mkjv@Hebrews:7:12 @ For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change made in the law also.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:13 @ For He of whom these things are spoken belongs to another tribe, from which no man gave attendance at the altar.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:14 @ For [it is] evident that our Lord sprang out of Judah, of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:15 @ And it is still far more evident, since there arises another priest after the likeness of Melchizedek,

mkjv@Hebrews:7:16 @ who is made, not according to the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an endless life.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:17 @ For He testifies, You [are] a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:18 @ For truly there] is a putting away of the commandment which went before, because of the weakness and unprofitableness of it.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:19 @ For the Law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope [did], by which we draw near to God.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:21 @ (for those priests were made without an oath, but this one was made with an oath by Him who said to Him, The Lord swore and will not repent, You [are] a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek,)

mkjv@Hebrews:7:22 @ by so much was Jesus made a surety of a better covenant.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:23 @ And they truly were many priests, because they were not allowed to continue because of death;

mkjv@Hebrews:7:27 @ who does not need, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice daily, first for his own [sins] and then for the people's sins. For He did this once for all, when He offered up Himself.

mkjv@Hebrews:7:28 @ For the Law appoints men high priests who have infirmity, but the word of the swearing of an oath, after the Law, [has consecrated] the Son forever, having been perfected.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:1 @ Now the sum of the things which we have spoken [is this]: We have such a High Priest, who has sat down on [the] right of the throne of the Majesty in Heaven,

mkjv@Hebrews:8:2 @ a Minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:3 @ For every high priest is appointed to offer gifts and sacrifices. Therefore [it is] necessary that this One have something to offer also.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:4 @ For if indeed He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are priests who offer gifts according to the Law,

mkjv@Hebrews:8:5 @ who serve the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was warned of God when he was about to make the tabernacle. For, He says See [that] you make all things according to the pattern shown to you in the mountain.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:6 @ But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much He is also the Mediator of a better covenant, which was built upon better promises.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:8 @ For finding fault with them, He said to them, Behold, days are coming, says [the] Lord, and I will make an end on the house of Israel and on the house of Judah; a new covenant shall be,

mkjv@Hebrews:8:9 @ not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day I took hold of their hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, because they did not continue in My covenant, and I did not regard them, says the Lord.

mkjv@Hebrews:8:10 @ For this [is] the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord: I will put My laws into their mind and write them in their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:1 @ Then truly the first [tabernacle] had also ordinances of divine service and an earthly sanctuary.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:2 @ For the first tabernacle was prepared, in which [was] both the lampstand, and the table, and the setting out of the loaves, which is called Holies.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:3 @ And after the second veil [was] a tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:4 @ having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid all around with gold, in which [was] the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets of the covenant.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:5 @ And over it were the cherubs of glory overshadowing the mercy-seat (about which we cannot now speak piece by piece.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:6 @ Now when these things were ordained in this way, the priests always went into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service [of God].

mkjv@Hebrews:9:7 @ But once [in] the year into the second the high priest [goes] alone, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people)

mkjv@Hebrews:9:8 @ the Holy Spirit signifying [by] this [that] the way into the Holiest of all was not yet made manifest while the first tabernacle was still standing.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:9 @ For it [was] a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices that could not make him who did the service perfect as regards the conscience,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:10 @ [which stood] only in meats and drinks, and different kinds of washings and fleshly ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:11 @ But when Christ had become a high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building

mkjv@Hebrews:9:12 @ nor by the blood of goats and calves, but by [His] own blood [He] entered once for all into the Holies, having obtained eternal redemption [for us].

mkjv@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the blood of bulls and of goats and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifies to the purifying of the flesh,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ (who through [the] eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God) purge your conscience from dead works to serve [the] living God?

mkjv@Hebrews:9:15 @ And for this cause He is the Mediator of the new covenant, so that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions [that were] under the first covenant, those who are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:16 @ For where a covenant [is], the death of him covenanting must be offered.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:19 @ For [when] Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the Law, [he] took the blood of calves and of goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,

mkjv@Hebrews:9:20 @ saying, This [is] the blood of the covenant which God has enjoined to you.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:21 @ And likewise he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:22 @ And almost all things are by the law purged with blood, and without shedding of blood is no remission.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:23 @ Therefore [it was] necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified [with] these, but the heavenly things themselves were purified] with better sacrifices than these.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has not entered into the [Holy of] Holies made with hands, [which are] the figures of the true, but into Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:25 @ Nor yet that He should offer Himself often, even as the high priest enters into the [Holy of] Holies every year with the blood of others

mkjv@Hebrews:9:26 @ (for then He must have suffered often since [the] foundation of the world), but now once in the end of the world He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

mkjv@Hebrews:9:28 @ so Christ was once offered to bear [the] sins of many. And to those who look for Him He shall appear the second [time] without sin to salvation.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:1 @ For the Law which has a shadow of good things to come, not the very image of the things, [appearing] year by year with the same sacrifices, which they offer continually, they are never able to perfect those drawing near.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:2 @ For then would they not have ceased to be offered? Because the worshipers, when they had been once for all purged, would have had no more conscience of sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:3 @ But in those [sacrifices there is] a remembrance again of sins every year.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:4 @ For [it is] not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:5 @ Therefore when He comes into the world, He says, Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but You have prepared a body for Me.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:6 @ In burnt offerings and [sacrifices] for sin You have had no pleasure.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:7 @ Then I said, Lo, I come ( in the] volume of the Book it is written of Me) to do Your will, O God.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:8 @ Above, when He said, Sacrifice and offering, and burnt offerings and [offering] for sin You did not desire, neither did You have pleasure in them (which are offered according to the Law),

mkjv@Hebrews:10:10 @ By this will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:11 @ And indeed every priest stands daily ministering and offering often the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:12 @ But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down [on the] right of God,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:14 @ For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are sanctified.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:18 @ Now where remission of these [is, there is] no more offering for sin.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:19 @ Therefore, brothers, having boldness to enter into the [Holy of] Holies by the blood of Jesus,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:21 @ and [having] a High Priest over the house of God,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and [our] bodies having been washed with pure water.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the profession of [our] faith without wavering (for He is faithful who promised),

mkjv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some [is], but exhorting [one another], and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:26 @ For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:28 @ He who despised Moses' law died without mercy on [the word of] two or three witnesses.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:29 @ Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy of punishment, the [one] who has trampled the Son of God, and who has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

mkjv@Hebrews:10:31 @ [It is] a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But call to memory the former days, in which (after you were illuminated) you endured a great fight of afflictions,

mkjv@Hebrews:10:33 @ indeed being exposed both by reproaches and afflictions, and while you became companions of those who lived so.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you both sympathized with my bonds and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that you have in Heaven a better and an enduring substance.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:35 @ Therefore do not cast away your confidence, which has great [recompense of] reward.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have need of patience, so that after you have done the will of God you might receive the promise.

mkjv@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those] withdrawing to destruction, but of those who believe to [the] preserving of [the] soul.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is [the] substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:3 @ By faith we understand that] the ages were] framed by a word of God, so that the things being seen not to have come into being out of the things that appear.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:4 @ By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness [that he] was righteous, God testifying of his gifts. And by it he, being dead, yet speaks.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:6 @ But without faith [it is] impossible to please [Him], for he who comes to God must believe that He is and [that] He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:7 @ By faith Noah, having been warned by God of things not yet seen, moved with fear, prepared an ark to [the] saving of his house, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness [which is] according to faith.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he lived in the land of promise as a stranger, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs of the same promise with him.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:11 @ By faith also Sarah herself received strength to conceive seed and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged Him who had promised [to be] faithful.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:12 @ Because of this came into being [from] one, and that of one] having died, even as the stars of the sky in multitude, and as innumerable as the sand which is by the seashore.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:13 @ These all died by way of faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off. And they were persuaded of [them] and embraced [them] and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:15 @ And truly, if they had been mindful of that [country] from which they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:17 @ By faith Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. And he who had received the promises offered up his only-begotten [son],

mkjv@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it was said that in Isaac your Seed shall be called,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:21 @ By faith Jacob, [when he was] dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and worshiped, [leaning] upon the top of his staff.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith, Joseph dying remembered concerning the Exodus of the sons of Israel and gave orders concerning his bones.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:23 @ By faith Moses, having been born, was hidden three months by his parents, because they saw [he was] a beautiful child. And they were not afraid of the king's commandments.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:24 @ Having become great, Moses by faith refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:26 @ esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt, for he was looking to the reward.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:27 @ By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king, for he endured as seeing Him who is invisible.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:28 @ Through faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, lest He who destroyed the first-born should touch them.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:30 @ By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been compassed seven days.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:32 @ And what more shall I say? For the time would fail me to tell of Gideon and Barak and Samson and Jephthah; also David, and Samuel and the prophets,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:33 @ who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped [the] mouths of lions,

mkjv@Hebrews:11:34 @ quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the strangers.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:36 @ And others had trial of [cruel] mockings and scourgings; yes, more, of bonds and imprisonments.

mkjv@Hebrews:11:38 @ The world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains and dens and caves of the earth.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:1 @ Therefore since we also are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily besets [us], and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

mkjv@Hebrews:12:2 @ looking to Jesus the Author and Finisher of [our] faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured [the] cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right of the throne of God.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:3 @ For consider Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself, lest you be weary and faint in your minds.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:5 @ And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons, My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked by Him;

mkjv@Hebrews:12:8 @ But if you are without chastisement, of which all are partakers, then you are bastards and not sons.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:9 @ Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh who corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence. Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?

mkjv@Hebrews:12:10 @ For truly they chastened [us] for a few days according to their own pleasure, but He for our profit, that [we] might be partakers of His holiness.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:11 @ Now chastening for the present does not seem to be joyous, but grievous. Nevertheless afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who are exercised by it.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:12 @ Because of this, straighten up the hands which hang down and the enfeebled knees.

mkjv@Hebrews:12:13 @ And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way, but let it rather be healed.

mkjv@Hebrews:13:22 @ And I beseech you, brothers, allow the word of exhortation. For I have written a letter to you in few words.

mkjv@James:1:1 @ James, a servant of God and of [the] Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes in the Dispersion, greeting:

mkjv@James:1:2 @ My brothers, count [it] all joy when you fall into different kinds of temptations,

mkjv@James:1:3 @ knowing that the trying of your faith works patience.

mkjv@James:1:5 @ But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, [who] gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him.

mkjv@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, doubting nothing. For he who doubts is like a wave of [the] sea, driven by the wind and tossed.

mkjv@James:1:10 @ and the rich one [rejoice] in his humiliation, because he shall pass away as the flower of the grass.

mkjv@James:1:11 @ For the sun rose with the hot wind and dried up the grass, and its flower fell out, and the beauty of its appearance perished; so also the rich one will fade away in his ways.

mkjv@James:1:12 @ Blessed [is] the man who endures temptation, because having been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

mkjv@James:1:17 @ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness nor shadow of turning.

mkjv@James:1:18 @ Of [His own] will He brought us forth with [the] Word of truth, for us to be a certain firstfruit of His creatures.

mkjv@James:1:20 @ For the wrath of man does not work out [the] righteousness of God.

mkjv@James:1:21 @ Therefore putting aside all filthiness and overflowing of evil, receive in meekness the implanted Word, which is able to save your souls.

mkjv@James:1:22 @ But become doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

mkjv@James:1:23 @ For if anyone is a hearer of [the] Word and not a doer, he is like a man studying his natural face in a mirror.

mkjv@James:1:25 @ But whoever looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues [in it], he is not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of [the] work. This one shall be blessed in his doing.

mkjv@James:2:1 @ My brothers, do not have the faith of our Lord Christ, [the Lord] of glory, with respecter of faces.

mkjv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brothers, has not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He has promised to those who love Him?

mkjv@James:2:10 @ For whoever shall keep the whole law and yet offend in one [point], he is guilty of all.

mkjv@James:2:11 @ For He who said, Do not commit adultery, also said, Do not murder. But if you do not commit adultery, yet if you murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

mkjv@James:2:12 @ So speak and do as those who shall be judged by [the] law of liberty.

mkjv@James:2:14 @ My brothers, what profit [is it] if a man says he has faith and does not have works? Can faith save him?

mkjv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,

mkjv@James:2:16 @ and if one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warmed and filled, but you do not give them those things which are needful to the body, what good [is it]?

mkjv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?

mkjv@James:2:23 @ And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness, and he was called the friend of God.

mkjv@James:3:2 @ For [in] many [things] we all offend. If anyone does not offend in word, the same [is] a full-grown man, able also to bridle the whole body.

mkjv@James:3:4 @ Behold also the ships being so great, and driven by fierce winds, yet they are turned about with a very small rudder, where the impulse of him steering desires.

mkjv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue [is] a fire, a world of iniquity. So the tongue is set among our members, spotting all the body and inflaming the course of nature, and being inflamed by hell.

mkjv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of animals, and of birds, and of reptiles, and of sea-animals, is tamed, and has been tamed by mankind.

mkjv@James:3:8 @ But no one can tame the tongue, [it is] an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

mkjv@James:3:9 @ By this we bless God, even [the] Father. And by this we curse men, who have come into being according to the image of God.

mkjv@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proceeds blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so.

mkjv@James:3:13 @ Who [is] wise and knowing among you? Let him show his works by [his] good conduct with meekness of wisdom.

mkjv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom that is from above is first truly pure, then peaceable, gentle, easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

mkjv@James:3:18 @ And [the] fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

mkjv@James:4:4 @ Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity [with] God? Therefore whoever desires to be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

mkjv@James:4:11 @ Do not speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against [his] brother, and who judges his brother, speaks against the Law and judges the Law. But if you judge the Law, you are not a doer of the Law, but a judge.

mkjv@James:4:13 @ Come now, those saying, Today or tomorrow we will go into such a city and spend a year there, and we will trade and will make a profit,

mkjv@James:4:14 @ who do not know of the morrow. For what [is] your life? For it is a vapor, which appears for a little time, and then disappears.

mkjv@James:4:15 @ Instead of you saying, If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.

mkjv@James:5:4 @ Behold, the hire of the laborers reaping your fields cry out, being kept back by you. And the cries of those who have reaped have entered into the ears of [the] Lord of hosts.

mkjv@James:5:5 @ You have lived luxuriously on the earth, and lived wantonly. You have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.

mkjv@James:5:7 @ Therefore be patient, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth and has long patience for it, until he receives [the] early and the latter rain.

mkjv@James:5:8 @ You also be patient, establish your hearts, for the coming of your Lord draws near.

mkjv@James:5:10 @ My brothers, take the prophets who have spoken in the name of [the] Lord, [for] an example of suffering ill, and of patience.

mkjv@James:5:11 @ Behold, we count blessed those who endure. You have heard of the patience of Job, and you have seen the end of the Lord, that the Lord is full of pity and of tender mercy.

mkjv@James:5:14 @ Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.

mkjv@James:5:15 @ And the prayer of faith will cure the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up. And if he has committed sins, it will be forgiven him.

mkjv@James:5:16 @ Confess faults to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. [The] effectual fervent prayer of a righteous one avails much.

mkjv@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man of like passion as we are. And he prayed earnestly [that it] might not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for the time of three years and six months.

mkjv@James:5:20 @ know that he who turns back the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins.

mkjv@1Peter:1:1 @ Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to [the] elect sojourners of [the] Dispersion of Pontus, of Galatia, of Cappadocia, of Asia, and of Bithynia,

mkjv@1Peter:1:2 @ according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of [the] Spirit, to obedience and sprinkling of [the] blood of Jesus Christ. May grace and peace be multiplied to you.

mkjv@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed [be] the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has regenerated us again to a living hope through [the] resurrection of Jesus Christ from [the] dead,

mkjv@1Peter:1:5 @ by [the] power of God, having been kept through faith to a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time;

mkjv@1Peter:1:7 @ so that the trial of your faith (being much more precious than that of gold that perishes, but being proven through fire) might be found to praise and honor and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,

mkjv@1Peter:1:9 @ obtaining the end of your faith, the salvation of [your] souls.

mkjv@1Peter:1:11 @ searching for what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ made clear within them, testifying beforehand of the sufferings of Christ, and the glories that should follow.

mkjv@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you call on [the] Father, who without respect of persons judges according to the work of each one, pass the time of your [earthly] residence in fear,

mkjv@1Peter:1:18 @ knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, silver or gold, from your vain manner of life handed down from [your] fathers,

mkjv@1Peter:1:19 @ but with [the] precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot;

mkjv@1Peter:1:20 @ indeed having been foreknown before [the] foundation of [the] world, but revealed in [the] last times for you,

mkjv@1Peter:1:22 @ Purifying your souls in the obedience of the truth through the Spirit to unfeigned love of the brothers, love one another fervently out of a pure heart,

mkjv@1Peter:1:23 @ having been born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, through the living word of God, and abiding forever.

mkjv@1Peter:1:24 @ For all flesh [is] as grass, and all the glory of men as the flower of the grass. The grass withers, and its flower falls out,

mkjv@1Peter:1:25 @ but the Word of the Lord endures forever. And this is the Word preached as gospel to you.

mkjv@1Peter:2:2 @ desire the sincere milk of the word, as newborn babes, so that you may grow by it;

mkjv@1Peter:2:5 @ you also as living stones are built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

mkjv@1Peter:2:7 @ Therefore to you who believe [is] the honor. But to those who are disobedient, [He is the] Stone which the builders rejected; this One came to be [the] Head of the corner,

mkjv@1Peter:2:8 @ and a Stone-of-stumbling and a Rock-of-offense to those disobeying, who stumble at the word, to which they also were appointed.

mkjv@1Peter:2:9 @ But you [are] a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for possession, so that you might speak of the praises of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

mkjv@1Peter:2:10 @ [you] who then were not a people, but now the people of God, those not pitied [then], but now pitied.

mkjv@1Peter:2:12 @ having your conduct honest among the nations, in that which they speak against you as evildoers, they may glorify God in a day of [His] visitation, seeing [your] good works.

mkjv@1Peter:2:13 @ Then be in obedience to every ordinance of men, because of the Lord, whether to a king as supreme,

mkjv@1Peter:2:15 @ For such is the will of God, doing good to silence the ignorance of foolish men;

mkjv@1Peter:2:16 @ as free, and not having freedom as a cover of evil, but as servants of God.

mkjv@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were as sheep going astray, but now you are turned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

mkjv@1Peter:3:1 @ Likewise, wives, [be] in subjection to your own husbands, so that if any do not obey the word, they may also be won without the word by the conduct of the wives,

mkjv@1Peter:3:2 @ having witnessed your chaste behavior in [the] fear [of God].

mkjv@1Peter:3:3 @ Of whom let not be the adorning of garments, or outward braiding of hair and wearing of gold, or of putting on clothing,

mkjv@1Peter:3:4 @ but [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, the meek and quiet spirit, which is of great price in the sight of God.

mkjv@1Peter:3:7 @ Likewise, husbands, live together according to knowledge, giving honor to the wife as to the weaker vessel, the female, as truly [being] co-heirs together of [the] grace of life, not cutting off your prayers.

mkjv@1Peter:3:8 @ And finally, all [be] of one mind, having compassion on one another, loving the brothers, tenderhearted, friendly.

mkjv@1Peter:3:12 @ For the eyes of [the] Lord [are] on the righteous, and His ears [open] to their prayers. But [the] Lord's face [is] against [those] who do evil.

mkjv@1Peter:3:13 @ And who [is] the [one] who will harm you if you become imitators of the good?

mkjv@1Peter:3:15 @ but sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and [be] ready always to [give] an answer to everyone who asks you a reason of the hope in you, with meekness and fear;

mkjv@1Peter:3:17 @ For [it is] better, if the will of God wills [it], to suffer [for] well-doing than [for] evil-doing.

mkjv@1Peter:3:20 @ to disobeying ones, when once the long-suffering of God waited in [the] days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared (in which a few, that is, eight souls were saved through water);

mkjv@1Peter:3:21 @ which figure now also saves us, baptism; not a putting away of [the] filth of [the] flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God, by [the] resurrection of Jesus Christ;

mkjv@1Peter:4:2 @ in order no longer to [live] in [the] lusts of men, but in [the] will of God the remaining time in [the] flesh.

mkjv@1Peter:4:3 @ For the time of life which is past is enough for us to have worked out the will of the nations, having gone on in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, parties, carousings, and abominable idolatries.

mkjv@1Peter:4:4 @ In these things they are surprised, [that] you [are] not running with [them] into the same excess of riot, blaspheming.

mkjv@1Peter:4:7 @ But the end of all things has drawn near. Therefore be of sound mind, and be sensible to prayers.

mkjv@1Peter:4:8 @ And above all things have fervent love to yourselves, for love will cover a multitude of sins.

mkjv@1Peter:4:10 @ each one as he received a gift, ministering it to yourselves as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

mkjv@1Peter:4:11 @ If anyone speaks, [let it be] as [the] words of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as of the ability which God gives, so that God may be glorified in all things through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory, and the might forever and ever. Amen.

mkjv@1Peter:4:13 @ but rejoice according as you are partakers of Christ's suffering, so that when His glory shall be revealed, you may be glad also with exceeding joy.

mkjv@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reviled for [the] name of Christ, [you are] blessed, because the Spirit of God and of glory rests on you. Truly according to them, He is blasphemed, but according to you He is glorified.

mkjv@1Peter:4:15 @ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or an evildoer, or a meddler in the affairs of others.

mkjv@1Peter:4:16 @ But if [one suffers] as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God because of this.

mkjv@1Peter:4:17 @ For the time [has come] for the judgment to begin from the house of God. And if [it] first [begins] from us, what [will be] the end of those disobeying the gospel of God?

mkjv@1Peter:4:19 @ Therefore let those who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls in well-doing, as to a faithful Creator.

mkjv@1Peter:5:1 @ I exhort the elders who are among you, I being also an elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed.

mkjv@1Peter:5:2 @ Feed the flock of God among you, taking the oversight, not by compulsion, but willingly; nor for base gain, but readily;

mkjv@1Peter:5:4 @ And when the Chief Shepherd shall appear, you shall receive a never-fading crown of glory.

mkjv@1Peter:5:6 @ Therefore be humbled under the mighty hand of God, so that He may exalt you in due time,

mkjv@1Peter:5:10 @ But the God of all grace, He calling us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little, [He] will perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish [you].

mkjv@1Peter:5:12 @ I wrote to you through a few [words], by Silvanus, a faithful brother to you, as I suppose, exhorting and testifying this to be [the] true grace of God in which you stand.

mkjv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of holy love. Peace [be] to you, all those in Christ Jesus. Amen.

mkjv@2Peter:1:1 @ Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who have obtained like precious faith with us through [the] righteousness of our God and our Savior Jesus Christ,

mkjv@2Peter:1:2 @ Grace and peace be multiplied to you through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,

mkjv@2Peter:1:3 @ according as His divine power has given to us all things that [pertain] to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who has called us to glory and virtue,

mkjv@2Peter:1:4 @ through which He has given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, so that by these you might be partakers of [the] divine nature, having escaped the corruption [that is] in [the] world through lust.

mkjv@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things are in you and abound, they make you to be] neither idle nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Peter:1:9 @ For he] in whom these things are not present is blind and cannot see afar off and has forgotten that he was purged from his sins in the past.

mkjv@2Peter:1:11 @ For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

mkjv@2Peter:1:12 @ Therefore I will not neglect to put you always in remembrance of these things, though [you] know [them] and are established in the present truth.

mkjv@2Peter:1:14 @ knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle is soon, as indeed our Lord Jesus Christ made clear to me.

mkjv@2Peter:1:15 @ And I will also be diligent to cause you to always have memory of these things after my departure.

mkjv@2Peter:1:16 @ For not having followed fables having been cunningly devised, but becoming eyewitnesses of the majesty of Jesus Christ, we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord.

mkjv@2Peter:1:19 @ We also have a more sure word of prophecy, to which you do well to take heed, as to a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the Daystar arises in your hearts,

mkjv@2Peter:1:20 @ knowing this first, that no prophecy of the Scripture came into being of [its] own private interpretation.

mkjv@2Peter:1:21 @ For prophecy was not borne at any time by [the] will of man, but holy men of God spoke being borne along by the Holy Spirit.

mkjv@2Peter:2:2 @ And many will follow their pernicious ways, and because of them the way of truth will be evil spoken of.

mkjv@2Peter:2:3 @ And through covetousness they will use you for gain with well-turned words; for whom judgment from of old does not linger, and their destruction does not sleep.

mkjv@2Peter:2:4 @ For if God did not spare sinning angels, but thrust [them] down into Tartarus, and delivered [them] into chains of darkness, being reserved to judgment.

mkjv@2Peter:2:5 @ And He did not spare [the] old world, but saved Noah [the] eighth one, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly.

mkjv@2Peter:2:6 @ And turning the cities [of] Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, He condemned [them] with an overthrow, setting an example to men] intending to live ungodly.

mkjv@2Peter:2:7 @ And He delivered righteous Lot, oppressed with the lustful behavior of the lawless.

mkjv@2Peter:2:9 @ [The] Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation, and to reserve the unjust for a day of judgment, to be punished,

mkjv@2Peter:2:10 @ and especially those who walk after the flesh in [the] lust of uncleanness, and despise dominion. They are darers, self-pleasing; not trembling [at] glories, speaking evil.

mkjv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, as unreasoning natural brute animals having been born for capture and corruption, speak evil of the things that they do not understand. And they will utterly perish in their own corruption,

mkjv@2Peter:2:13 @ being about to receive [the] wages of unrighteousness, deeming indulgence [as] pleasure in [the] daytime, and reveling [in] spots and blemishes, feasting along with you in their deceits,

mkjv@2Peter:2:14 @ having eyes full of adultery and never ceasing from sin, alluring unstable souls, having a heart exercised [with] covetousness. [They are] cursed children

mkjv@2Peter:2:15 @ who have forsaken the right way and have gone astray, following the way of Balaam [the son] of Beor, who loved [the] wages of unrighteousness,

mkjv@2Peter:2:16 @ but had reproof of [his] lawbreaking, a dumb ass speaking in a man's voice, held back the madness of the prophet.

mkjv@2Peter:2:17 @ These are wells without water, clouds driven with a tempest, for whom the blackness of darkness is reserved forever.

mkjv@2Peter:2:18 @ For when they speak great swelling [words] of vanity, they lure through [the] lusts of the flesh, by unbridled lust, the ones who were escaping from those who live in error;

mkjv@2Peter:2:19 @ promising them liberty, they themselves are the slaves of corruption. For by whom anyone has been overcome, even to this one he has been enslaved.

mkjv@2Peter:2:20 @ For if [they] have escaped the pollutions of the world through the full knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and are again entangled, they have been overcome by these, [their] last things are worse [than] the first.

mkjv@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them not to have fully known the way of righteousness, than fully knowing [it], to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them.

mkjv@2Peter:2:22 @ But [the] word of the true proverb has happened to them: [The] dog turning to [his] own vomit; and, [The] washed sow to wallowing in the mire.

mkjv@2Peter:3:2 @ to remember the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of the Lord and Savior by us, the apostles.

mkjv@2Peter:3:3 @ First, knowing this, that there will come in [the] last days scoffers walking according to their own lusts

mkjv@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.

mkjv@2Peter:3:5 @ For this is hidden from them [by their] willing it, that the heavens were of old, and the earth out of the water, and through water, being held together by the word of God,

mkjv@2Peter:3:7 @ But the present heavens and the earth being kept in store by the same word, are being kept for fire until the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.

mkjv@2Peter:3:9 @ The Lord is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness, but is long-suffering toward us, not purposing that any [of us] should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

mkjv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in [the] night, in which the heavens will pass away with a rushing noise, and [the] elements will melt with fervent heat. And the earth and the works in it will be burned up.

mkjv@2Peter:3:12 @ looking for and rushing the coming of the Day of God, on account of which [the] heavens, being on fire, will melt away, and [the] elements will melt, burning with heat?

mkjv@2Peter:3:15 @ And think of the long-suffering of our Lord [as] salvation (as our beloved brother Paul also has written to you according to the wisdom given to him

mkjv@2Peter:3:16 @ as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable pervert, as also [they do] the rest of the Scriptures, to [their] own destruction).

mkjv@2Peter:3:17 @ Therefore, beloved, knowing beforehand, beware lest being led away with the error of the lawless, you fall from [your] own steadfastness.

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

mkjv@1John:1:1 @ That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, concerning the Word of life,

mkjv@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.

mkjv@1John:2:2 @ And He is [the] propitiation concerning our sins, and not concerning ours only, but also concerning [the sins of] all the world.

mkjv@1John:2:5 @ But whoever keeps His Word, truly in this one the love of God is perfected. By this we know that we are in Him.

mkjv@1John:2:14 @ I write 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 evil one.

mkjv@1John:2:15 @ Do not love the world, nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him,

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

mkjv@1John:2:19 @ They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they were of us, they would have continued with us. But [they went out] so that it might be revealed that they were not all of us.

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

mkjv@1John:2:29 @ If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who does righteousness has been born of Him.

mkjv@1John:3:1 @ Behold what manner of love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God. Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.

mkjv@1John:3:2 @ Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be. But we know that when He shall be revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

mkjv@1John:3:8 @ He who practices sin is of the Devil, for the Devil sins from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was revealed, that He might undo the works of the Devil.

mkjv@1John:3:9 @ Everyone who has been born of God does not commit sin, because His seed remains in him, and he cannot sin, because he has been born of God.

mkjv@1John:3:10 @ In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the Devil: everyone not practicing righteousness is not of God, also he who does not love his brother.

mkjv@1John:3:12 @ not as Cain [who] was of the evil one, and killed his brother. And for what did he kill him? Because his own works were evil, and his brother's things were righteous.

mkjv@1John:3:16 @ By this we have known the love [of God], because He laid down His life for us. And we ought to lay down [our] lives for the brothers.

mkjv@1John:3:17 @ But whoever has this world's goods and sees his brother having need, and shuts up his bowels from him, how does the love of God dwell in him?

mkjv@1John:3:19 @ And in this we shall know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him,

mkjv@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.

mkjv@1John:4:1 @ Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but try the spirits to see if they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world.

mkjv@1John:4:2 @ By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in [the] flesh is of God;

mkjv@1John:4:3 @ and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in [the] flesh is not of God. And this is the antichrist you heard is coming, and even now is already in the world.

mkjv@1John:4:4 @ You are of God, little children, and you have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

mkjv@1John:4:5 @ They are of the world, therefore they speak of the world, and the world hears them.

mkjv@1John:4:6 @ We are of God. He who knows God hears us. The one who is not of God does not hear us. From this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error.

mkjv@1John:4:7 @ Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God, and everyone who loves has been born of God, and knows God.

mkjv@1John:4:9 @ In this the love of God was revealed in us, because God sent His only begotten Son into the world that we might live through Him.

mkjv@1John:4:13 @ By this we know that we dwell in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.

mkjv@1John:4:14 @ And we have seen and testify that the Father sent the Son [to be] the Savior of the world.

mkjv@1John:4:15 @ Whoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwells in him and he in God.

mkjv@1John:4:17 @ In this is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, that as He is, so also we are in this world.

mkjv@1John:5:1 @ Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God. And everyone who loves Him who begets also loves him who has been born of Him.

mkjv@1John:5:2 @ By this we know that we love the children of God, whenever we love God and keep His commandments.

mkjv@1John:5:3 @ For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments, and His commandments are not burdensome.

mkjv@1John:5:4 @ For everything that has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.

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

mkjv@1John:5:9 @ If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater. For this is the witness of God which He has testified about His Son.

mkjv@1John:5:10 @ He who believes on the Son of God has the witness in himself. He who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he does not believe the record that God gave of His Son.

mkjv@1John:5:12 @ He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

mkjv@1John:5:13 @ I have written these things to you who believe on the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have everlasting life, and that you may believe on the name of the Son of God.

mkjv@1John:5:15 @ And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him.

mkjv@1John:5:18 @ We know that everyone who has been born of God does not continue to sin, but the one born of God guards himself, and the evil one does not touch him.

mkjv@1John:5:19 @ We know that we are of God, and all the world lies in evil.

mkjv@1John:5:20 @ And we know that the Son of God has come, and [He] has given us an understanding so that we may know Him who is true. And we are in Him that is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and the everlasting life.

mkjv@2John:1:2 @ for the sake of the truth dwelling in us, and [which] shall be with us forever.

mkjv@2John:1:3 @ Grace will be with you, mercy [and] peace from God [the] Father and from [the] Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.

mkjv@2John:1:9 @ Everyone transgressing and not abiding in the doctrine of Christ does not have God. He who abides in the doctrine of Christ, he has both the Father and the Son.

mkjv@2John:1:11 @ For he who speaks a greeting to him is partaker of his evil deeds.

mkjv@2John:1:13 @ The children of your elect sister greet you. Amen.

mkjv@3John:1:3 @ For I rejoiced greatly when [the] brothers came and testified of the truth that is in you, even as you walk in the truth.

mkjv@3John:1:6 @ who in love bore witness of you before [the] church, whom you will do well to send forward worthily of God;

mkjv@3John:1:10 @ Therefore if I come, I will remember his deeds which he does, ranting against us with evil words. And not content [with] these, neither does he himself receive the brothers. And he forbids those who would, and casts [them] out of the church.

mkjv@Jude:1:1 @ Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to the [ones] called in God [the] Father, having been set apart, and having been kept by Jesus Christ:

mkjv@Jude:1:4 @ For certain men crept in secretly, those having been of old previously written into this condemnation, ungodly ones perverting the grace of our God for unbridled lust, and denying the only Master, God, even our Lord Jesus Christ.

mkjv@Jude:1:5 @ But I intend to remind you, you once knowing these things, that the Lord having delivered a people out of the land of Egypt, in the second place destroyed the ones not believing.

mkjv@Jude:1:6 @ And those angels not having kept their first place, but having deserted their dwelling-place, He has kept in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of a great Day;

mkjv@Jude:1:7 @ as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them, in like manner to these, committing fornication, and going away after other flesh, laid down an example before-times, undergoing vengeance of everlasting fire.

mkjv@Jude:1:8 @ Likewise, indeed, also these dreaming ones even defile flesh, and despise rulership, and speak evil of glories.

mkjv@Jude:1:9 @ But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the Devil, he argued about the body of Moses, he dared not bring a judgment of blasphemy, but said, Let the Lord rebuke you!

mkjv@Jude:1:10 @ But what things they do not know, they speak evil of. And what things they understand naturally, like the animals without reason, they are corrupted by these.

mkjv@Jude:1:11 @ Woe to them! For they went the way of Cain, and gave themselves up to the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah.

mkjv@Jude:1:13 @ wild waves of the sea foaming up their shames; wandering stars for whom blackness of darkness has been kept forever.

mkjv@Jude:1:14 @ And Enoch, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied to these, saying, Behold, the Lord came with myriads of His saints,

mkjv@Jude:1:15 @ to do judgment against all, and to rebuke all the ungodly of them concerning all their ungodly works which they ungodly did, and concerning all the hard things ungodly sinners spoke against Him.

mkjv@Jude:1:16 @ These are murmurers, complainers, leading lives according to their lusts. And their mouth speaks proud things, admiring faces for the sake of gain.

mkjv@Revelation:1:14 @ His head and hair [were] white like wool, as white as snow. And His eyes [were] like a flame of fire.

mkjv@Revelation:1:15 @ And His feet were like burnished brass having been fired in a furnace. And His voice was like the sound of many waters.

mkjv@Revelation:1:16 @ And He had seven stars in His right hand, and out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword. And His face [was] like the sun shining in its strength.

mkjv@Revelation:1:18 @ and the Living One, and I became dead, and behold, I am alive for ever and ever, Amen. And I have the keys of hell and of death.

mkjv@Revelation:1:20 @ the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand and the seven golden lampstands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven churches.

mkjv@Revelation:2:1 @ To the angel of the church of Ephesus write: He who holds the seven stars in His right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden lampstands, says these things.

mkjv@Revelation:2:5 @ Therefore remember from where you have fallen, and repent, and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and will remove your lampstand out of its place unless you repent.

mkjv@Revelation:2:6 @ But you have this, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.

mkjv@Revelation:2:9 @ I know your works and tribulation and poverty (but you are rich), and [I know] the blasphemy of those saying themselves to be Jews, and are not, but [are] the synagogue of Satan.

mkjv@Revelation:2:10 @ Do not at all fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the Devil will cast [some] of you into prison, so that you may be tried. And you will have tribulation ten days. Be faithful to death, and I will give you the crown of life.

mkjv@Revelation:2:12 @ And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write: He who has the sharp sword with two edges says these things.

mkjv@Revelation:2:14 @ But I have a few things against you, because you have there those who hold the teachings of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumbling-block before the sons of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols and to commit fornication.

mkjv@Revelation:2:15 @ So you also have those who hold the teaching of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.

mkjv@Revelation:2:16 @ Repent! But if not I will come to you quickly, and will fight with them by the sword of My mouth.

mkjv@Revelation:2:17 @ He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give to him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows except he who receives [it].

mkjv@Revelation:3:18 @ I counsel you to buy from Me gold purified by fire, so that you may be rich; and white clothing, so that you may be clothed, and [so that] the shame of your nakedness does not appear. And anoint your eyes with eye salve, so that you may see.

mkjv@Revelation:4:1 @ After these things I looked, and behold, a door [was] opened in Heaven. And the first voice which I heard [was] as it were of a trumpet talking with me, saying, Come up here, and I will show you what must occur after these things.

mkjv@Revelation:4:4 @ And around the throne [I saw] twenty-four thrones. And on the thrones I saw twenty-four elders sitting, clothed in white clothing. And they had crowns of gold on their heads.

mkjv@Revelation:4:5 @ And out of the throne came lightnings and thunderings and voices. And seven lamps of fire [were] burning in front of the throne, which are the seven spirits of God.

mkjv@Revelation:4:8 @ And each one of the four living creatures had six wings about [him], and within being full of eyes. And they had no rest day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God, the Almighty, who was and is and [is] to come.

mkjv@Revelation:5:1 @ And I saw a book on the right of Him sitting on the throne, written inside and on the back, sealed with seven seals.

mkjv@Revelation:5:5 @ And one of the elders said to me, Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the book and to loose the seven seals of it.

mkjv@Revelation:5:6 @ And I looked, and lo, in [the] midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, amidst the elders, a Lamb stood, as if it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

mkjv@Revelation:5:7 @ And He came and took the book out of the right [hand] of Him sitting on the throne.

mkjv@Revelation:5:8 @ And when He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having harps and golden vials full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

mkjv@Revelation:5:9 @ And they sang a new song, saying, You are worthy to take the book and to open its seals, for You were slain and have redeemed us to God by Your blood out of every kindred and tongue and people and nation.

mkjv@Revelation:6:7 @ And when He had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, Come and see.

mkjv@Revelation:6:8 @ And I looked, and behold, a pale horse. And the name of him sitting on it [was] Death, and Hell followed with him. And authority was given to them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with the sword and with hunger and with death and by the beasts of the earth.

mkjv@Revelation:6:9 @ And when He had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held.

mkjv@Revelation:6:11 @ And white robes were given to each one of them. And it was said to them that they should rest yet for a little time, until both their fellow servants and their brothers (those about to be killed as they [were] ) should have their number made complete.

mkjv@Revelation:6:12 @ And when He had opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake. And the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood.

mkjv@Revelation:6:13 @ And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, even as a fig tree casts her untimely figs when she is shaken by a mighty wind.

mkjv@Revelation:6:14 @ And [the] heaven departed like a scroll when it is rolled together. And every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

mkjv@Revelation:6:15 @ And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every freeman, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains.

mkjv@Revelation:7:1 @ And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth so that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.

mkjv@Revelation:7:2 @ And 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 given to hurt the earth and the sea,

mkjv@Revelation:7:3 @ saying, Do not hurt the earth or the sea or the trees until we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.

mkjv@Revelation:7:13 @ And one of the elders answered, saying to me, Who are these who are arrayed in white robes, and from where do they come?

mkjv@Revelation:7:14 @ And I said to him, Sir, you know. And he said to me, These are the ones who came out of the great tribulation and have washed their robes, and have whitened them in the blood of the Lamb.

mkjv@Revelation:7:15 @ Therefore they are before the throne of God, and they serve Him day and night in His temple. And He sitting on the throne will dwell among them.

mkjv@Revelation:7:17 @ For the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will feed them and will lead them to [the] fountains of living waters. And God will wipe away all tears from their eyes.

mkjv@Revelation:8:3 @ And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer. And many incenses were given to him, so that he should offer [it] with the prayers of all saints on the golden altar before the throne.

mkjv@Revelation:8:4 @ And the smoke of the incense [which came] with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God from the angel's hand.

mkjv@Revelation:8:7 @ The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mixed with blood, and they were cast on the earth. And the third [part] of trees was burned up, and all green grass was burned up.

mkjv@Revelation:8:8 @ And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea. And the third [part] of the sea became blood.

mkjv@Revelation:8:9 @ And the third [part] of the creatures in the sea, those having souls, died; and the third [part] of the ships was destroyed.

mkjv@Revelation:8:13 @ And I saw and I heard one angel flying in mid-heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe! Woe! Woe to the inhabitants of the earth, from the rest of the voices of the trumpet of the three angels being about to sound!

mkjv@Revelation:9:1 @ And the fifth angel sounded. And I saw a star fall from the heaven to the earth, and it was given the key of the abyss.

mkjv@Revelation:9:2 @ And it opened the bottomless pit. And there arose a smoke out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace. And the sun and air were darkened because of the smoke of the pit.

mkjv@Revelation:9:3 @ And out of the smoke came forth locusts onto the earth. And authority was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have authority.

mkjv@Revelation:9:7 @ And the shapes of the locusts [were] like horses prepared for battle. And on their heads were as it [were] crowns like gold, and their faces [were] like the faces of men.

mkjv@Revelation:9:8 @ And they had hairs like the hairs of women, and their teeth were like [the teeth] of lions.

mkjv@Revelation:9:9 @ And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron. And the sound of their wings [was] like the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

mkjv@Revelation:9:11 @ And they had a king over them, the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue [is] Abaddon, but in Greek his name [is] Apollyon.

mkjv@Revelation:9:13 @ And the sixth angel sounded his trumpet. And I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God,

mkjv@Revelation:9:16 @ And the number of the armies of the horsemen [was] two myriads of myriads. And I heard their number.

mkjv@Revelation:9:17 @ And so I saw the horses in the vision, and those sitting on them, having breastplates of fire, even dusky red and brimstone. And the heads of the horses [were] like the heads of lions. And out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

mkjv@Revelation:9:18 @ By these three the third [part] of men was killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone which issued out of their mouths.

mkjv@Revelation:9:20 @ And the rest of the men who were not killed by these plagues [still] did not repent of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and golden, and silver, and bronze, and stone, and wooden idols (which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk).

mkjv@Revelation:9:21 @ And they did not repent of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.

mkjv@Revelation:10:1 @ And I saw another mighty angel coming down out of the heaven, clothed with a cloud. And a rainbow [was] on his head, and his face [was] as the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.

mkjv@Revelation:10:7 @ But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he will begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as He has declared to His servants the prophets.

mkjv@Revelation:10:8 @ And the voice which I heard from Heaven spoke to me again, and said, Go, take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel who stands on the sea and on the earth.

mkjv@Revelation:10:10 @ And I took the little book out of the angel's hand and ate it up. And it was sweet as honey in my mouth, and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was made bitter.
