Hosea:3:1 @ Then the LORD said to me, "Go again, love a woman who is loved by a lover and is committing adultery, just like the love of the LORD for the children of Israel, who look to other gods and love the raisin cakes of the pagans."
nkjv@Hosea:3:3 @ And I said to her, "You shall stay with me many days; you shall not play the harlot, nor shall you have a man--so, too, will I be toward you."
nkjv@Hosea:3:4 @ For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, without ephod or teraphim.
nkjv@Hosea:4:4 @ "Now let no man contend, or rebuke another; For your people are like those who contend with the priest.
nkjv@Hosea:5:11 @ Ephraim is oppressed and broken in judgment, Because he willingly walked by human precept.
nkjv@Hosea:6:9 @ As bands of robbers lie in wait for a man, So the company of priests murder on the way to Shechem; Surely they commit lewdness.
nkjv@Hosea:8:6 @ For from Israel is even this: A workman made it, and it is not God; But the calf of Samaria shall be broken to pieces.
nkjv@Hosea:8:11 @ "Because Ephraim has made many altars for sin, They have become for him altars for sinning.
nkjv@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of punishment have come; The days of recompense have come. Israel knows! The prophet is a fool, The spiritual man is insane, Because of the greatness of your iniquity and great enmity.
nkjv@Hosea:9:8 @ The watchman of Ephraim is with my God; But the prophet is a fowler's snare in all his ways-- Enmity in the house of his God.
nkjv@Hosea:9:12 @ Though they bring up their children, Yet I will bereave them to the last man. Yes, woe to them when I depart from them!
nkjv@Hosea:10:14 @ Therefore tumult shall arise among your people, And all your fortresses shall be plundered As Shalman plundered Beth Arbel in the day of battle-- A mother dashed in pieces upon her children.
nkjv@Hosea:11:9 @ I will not execute the fierceness of My anger; I will not again destroy Ephraim. For I am God, and not man, The Holy One in your midst; And I will not come with terror.
nkjv@Hosea:13:13 @ The sorrows of a woman in childbirth shall come upon him. He is an unwise son, For he should not stay long where children are born.
nkjv@Joel:2:2 @ A day of darkness and gloominess, A day of clouds and thick darkness, Like the morning clouds spread over the mountains. A people come, great and strong, The like of whom has never been; Nor will there ever be any such after them, Even for many successive generations.
nkjv@Amos:1:12 @ But I will send a fire upon Teman, Which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah."
nkjv@Amos:2:4 @ Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because they have despised the law of the LORD, And have not kept His commandments. Their lies lead them astray, Lies which their fathers followed.
nkjv@Amos:2:7 @ They pant after the dust of the earth which is on the head of the poor, And pervert the way of the humble. A man and his father go in to the same girl, To defile My holy name.
nkjv@Amos:2:12 @ "But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink, And commanded the prophets saying, "Do not prophesy!'
nkjv@Amos:4:10 @ "I sent among you a plague after the manner of Egypt; Your young men I killed with a sword, Along with your captive horses; I made the stench of your camps come up into your nostrils; Yet you have not returned to Me," Says the LORD.
nkjv@Amos:4:13 @ For behold, He who forms mountains, And creates the wind, Who declares to man what his thought is, And makes the morning darkness, Who treads the high places of the earth-- The LORD God of hosts is His name.
nkjv@Amos:5:12 @ For I know your manifold transgressions And your mighty sins: Afflicting the just and taking bribes; Diverting the poor from justice at the gate.
nkjv@Amos:5:19 @ It will be as though a man fled from a lion, And a bear met him! Or as though he went into the house, Leaned his hand on the wall, And a serpent bit him!
nkjv@Amos:6:11 @ For behold, the LORD gives a command: He will break the great house into bits, And the little house into pieces.
nkjv@Amos:8:3 @ And the songs of the temple Shall be wailing in that day," Says the Lord GOD-- "Many dead bodies everywhere, They shall be thrown out in silence."
nkjv@Amos:9:3 @ And though they hide themselves on top of Carmel, From there I will search and take them; Though they hide from My sight at the bottom of the sea, From there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them;
nkjv@Amos:9:4 @ Though they go into captivity before their enemies, From there I will command the sword, And it shall slay them. I will set My eyes on them for harm and not for good."
nkjv@Amos:9:9 @ "For surely I will command, And will sift the house of Israel among all nations, As grain is sifted in a sieve; Yet not the smallest grain shall fall to the ground.
nkjv@Amos:9:13 @ "Behold, the days are coming," says the LORD, "When the plowman shall overtake the reaper, And the treader of grapes him who sows seed; The mountains shall drip with sweet wine, And all the hills shall flow with it.
nkjv@Obadiah:1:9 @ Then your mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, To the end that everyone from the mountains of Esau May be cut off by slaughter.
nkjv@Jonah:1:5 @ Then the mariners were afraid; and every man cried out to his god, and threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea, to lighten the load. But Jonah had gone down into the lowest parts of the ship, had lain down, and was fast asleep.
nkjv@Jonah:1:14 @ Therefore they cried out to the LORD and said, "We pray, O LORD, please do not let us perish for this man's life, and do not charge us with innocent blood; for You, O LORD, have done as it pleased You."
nkjv@Jonah:3:7 @ And he caused it to be proclaimed and published throughout Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste anything; do not let them eat, or drink water.
nkjv@Jonah:3:8 @ But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily to God; yes, let every one turn from his evil way and from the violence that is in his hands.
nkjv@Micah:2:2 @ They covet fields and take them by violence, Also houses, and seize them. So they oppress a man and his house, A man and his inheritance.
nkjv@Micah:2:11 @ If a man should walk in a false spirit And speak a lie, saying, "I will prophesy to you of wine and drink,' Even he would be the prattler of this people.
nkjv@Micah:2:12 @ "I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob, I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together like sheep of the fold, Like a flock in the midst of their pasture; They shall make a loud noise because of so many people.
nkjv@Micah:4:2 @ Many nations shall come and say, "Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths." For out of Zion the law shall go forth, And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
nkjv@Micah:4:3 @ He shall judge between many peoples, And rebuke strong nations afar off; They shall beat their swords into plowshares, And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war anymore.
nkjv@Micah:4:9 @ Now why do you cry aloud? Is there no king in your midst? Has your counselor perished? For pangs have seized you like a woman in labor.
nkjv@Micah:4:10 @ Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, Like a woman in birth pangs. For now you shall go forth from the city, You shall dwell in the field, And to Babylon you shall go. There you shall be delivered; There the LORD will redeem you From the hand of your enemies.
nkjv@Micah:4:11 @ Now also many nations have gathered against you, Who say, "Let her be defiled, And let our eye look upon Zion."
nkjv@Micah:4:13 @ "Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion; For I will make your horn iron, And I will make your hooves bronze; You shall beat in pieces many peoples; I will consecrate their gain to the LORD, And their substance to the Lord of the whole earth."
nkjv@Micah:5:7 @ Then the remnant of Jacob Shall be in the midst of many peoples, Like dew from the LORD, Like showers on the grass, That tarry for no man Nor wait for the sons of men.
nkjv@Micah:5:8 @ And the remnant of Jacob Shall be among the Gentiles, In the midst of many peoples, Like a lion among the beasts of the forest, Like a young lion among flocks of sheep, Who, if he passes through, Both treads down and tears in pieces, And none can deliver.
nkjv@Micah:6:8 @ He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justly, To love mercy, And to walk humbly with your God?
nkjv@Micah:7:2 @ The faithful man has perished from the earth, And there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; Every man hunts his brother with a net.
nkjv@Micah:7:3 @ That they may successfully do evil with both hands-- The prince asks for gifts, The judge seeks a bribe, And the great man utters his evil desire; So they scheme together.
nkjv@Micah:7:4 @ The best of them is like a brier; The most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge; The day of your watchman and your punishment comes; Now shall be their perplexity.
nkjv@Micah:7:6 @ For son dishonors father, Daughter rises against her mother, Daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; A man's enemies are the men of his own household.
nkjv@Nahum:1:12 @ Thus says the LORD: "Though they are safe, and likewise many, Yet in this manner they will be cut down When he passes through. Though I have afflicted you, I will afflict you no more;
nkjv@Nahum:1:14 @ The LORD has given a command concerning you: "Your name shall be perpetuated no longer. Out of the house of your gods I will cut off the carved image and the molded image. I will dig your grave, For you are vile."
nkjv@Nahum:2:1 @ He who scatters has come up before your face. Man the fort! Watch the road! Strengthen your flanks! Fortify your power mightily.
nkjv@Nahum:3:15 @ There the fire will devour you, The sword will cut you off; It will eat you up like a locust. Make yourself many--like the locust! Make yourself many-- like the swarming locusts!
nkjv@Nahum:3:17 @ Your commanders are like swarming locusts, And your generals like great grasshoppers, Which camp in the hedges on a cold day; When the sun rises they flee away, And the place where they are is not known.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:5 @ "Indeed, because he transgresses by wine, He is a proud man, And he does not stay at home. Because he enlarges his desire as hell, And he is like death, and cannot be satisfied, He gathers to himself all nations And heaps up for himself all peoples.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:6 @ "Will not all these take up a proverb against him, And a taunting riddle against him, and say, "Woe to him who increases What is not his--how long? And to him who loads himself with many pledges'?
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:8 @ Because you have plundered many nations, All the remnant of the people shall plunder you, Because of men's blood And the violence of the land and the city, And of all who dwell in it.
nkjv@Habakkuk:2:10 @ You give shameful counsel to your house, Cutting off many peoples, And sin against your soul.
nkjv@Habakkuk:3:3 @ God came from Teman, The Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens, And the earth was full of His praise.
nkjv@Zephaniah:1:3 @ "I will consume man and beast; I will consume the birds of the heavens, The fish of the sea, And the stumbling blocks along with the wicked. I will cut off man from the face of the land," Says the LORD.
nkjv@Zechariah:1:6 @ Yet surely My words and My statutes, Which I commanded My servants the prophets, Did they not overtake your fathers? "So they returned and said: "Just as the LORD of hosts determined to do to us, According to our ways and according to our deeds, So He has dealt with us."""
nkjv@Zechariah:1:8 @ I saw by night, and behold, a man riding on a red horse, and it stood among the myrtle trees in the hollow; and behind him were horses: red, sorrel, and white.
nkjv@Zechariah:1:10 @ And the man who stood among the myrtle trees answered and said, "These are the ones whom the LORD has sent to walk to and fro throughout the earth."
nkjv@Zechariah:2:1 @ Then I raised my eyes and looked, and behold, a man with a measuring line in his hand.
nkjv@Zechariah:2:4 @ who said to him, "Run, speak to this young man, saying: "Jerusalem shall be inhabited as towns without walls, because of the multitude of men and livestock in it.
nkjv@Zechariah:2:11 @ "Many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and they shall become My people. And I will dwell in your midst. Then you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent Me to you.
nkjv@Zechariah:3:7 @ "Thus says the LORD of hosts: "If you will walk in My ways, And if you will keep My command, Then you shall also judge My house, And likewise have charge of My courts; I will give you places to walk Among these who stand here.
nkjv@Zechariah:4:1 @ Now the angel who talked with me came back and wakened me, as a man who is wakened out of his sleep.
nkjv@Zechariah:5:7 @ Here is a lead disc lifted up, and this is a woman sitting inside the basket";
nkjv@Zechariah:6:12 @ Then speak to him, saying, "Thus says the LORD of hosts, saying: "Behold, the Man whose name is the BRANCH! From His place He shall branch out, And He shall build the temple of the LORD;
nkjv@Zechariah:7:3 @ and to ask the priests who were in the house of the LORD of hosts, and the prophets, saying, "Should I weep in the fifth month and fast as I have done for so many years?"
nkjv@Zechariah:8:10 @ For before these days There were no wages for man nor any hire for beast; There was no peace from the enemy for whoever went out or came in; For I set all men, everyone, against his neighbor.
nkjv@Zechariah:8:16 @ These are the things you shall do: Speak each man the truth to his neighbor; Give judgment in your gates for truth, justice, and peace;
nkjv@Zechariah:8:20 @ "Thus says the LORD of hosts: "Peoples shall yet come, Inhabitants of many cities;
nkjv@Zechariah:8:22 @ Yes, many peoples and strong nations Shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, And to pray before the LORD.'
nkjv@Zechariah:8:23 @ "Thus says the LORD of hosts: "In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, "Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.""'
nkjv@Zechariah:9:13 @ For I have bent Judah, My bow, Fitted the bow with Ephraim, And raised up your sons, O Zion, Against your sons, O Greece, And made you like the sword of a mighty man."
nkjv@Zechariah:10:7 @ Those of Ephraim shall be like a mighty man, And their heart shall rejoice as if with wine. Yes, their children shall see it and be glad; Their heart shall rejoice in the LORD.
nkjv@Zechariah:12:1 @ The burden of the word of the LORD against Israel. Thus says the LORD, who stretches out the heavens, lays the foundation of the earth, and forms the spirit of man within him:
nkjv@Zechariah:13:5 @ But he will say, "I am no prophet, I am a farmer; for a man taught me to keep cattle from my youth.'
nkjv@Zechariah:13:7 @ "Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd, Against the Man who is My Companion," Says the LORD of hosts. "Strike the Shepherd, And the sheep will be scattered; Then I will turn My hand against the little ones.
nkjv@Malachi:2:1 @ "And now, O priests, this commandment is for you.
nkjv@Malachi:2:4 @ Then you shall know that I have sent this commandment to you, That My covenant with Levi may continue," Says the LORD of hosts.
nkjv@Malachi:2:6 @ The law of truth was in his mouth, And injustice was not found on his lips. He walked with Me in peace and equity, And turned many away from iniquity.
nkjv@Malachi:2:8 @ But you have departed from the way; You have caused many to stumble at the law. You have corrupted the covenant of Levi," Says the LORD of hosts.
nkjv@Malachi:2:12 @ May the LORD cut off from the tents of Jacob The man who does this, being awake and aware, Yet who brings an offering to the LORD of hosts!
nkjv@Malachi:3:8 @ "Will a man rob God? Yet you have robbed Me! But you say, "In what way have we robbed You?' In tithes and offerings.
nkjv@Malachi:3:17 @ "They shall be Mine," says the LORD of hosts, "On the day that I make them My jewels. And I will spare them As a man spares his own son who serves him."
nkjv@Malachi:4:4 @ "Remember the Law of Moses, My servant, Which I commanded him in Horeb for all Israel, With the statutes and judgments.
nkjv@Romans:9:25 @ As He says also in Hosea: "I will call them My people, who were not My people, And her beloved, who was not beloved."
nkjv@Romans:9:26 @ "And it shall come to pass in the place where it was said to them, "You are not My people,' There they shall be called sons of the living God."
nkjv@Romans:9:27 @ Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: "Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, The remnant will be saved.
nkjv@Romans:9:28 @ For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the LORD will make a short work upon the earth."
nkjv@Romans:9:29 @ And as Isaiah said before: "Unless the LORD of Sabaoth had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And we would have been made like Gomorrah."
nkjv@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say then? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have attained to righteousness, even the righteousness of faith;
nkjv@Romans:9:31 @ but Israel, pursuing the law of righteousness, has not attained to the law of righteousness.
nkjv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not seek it by faith, but as it were, by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumbling stone.
nkjv@Romans:9:33 @ As it is written: "Behold, I lay in Zion a stumbling stone and rock of offense, And whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."
nkjv@Romans:10:1 @ Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is that they may be saved.
nkjv@Romans:10:2 @ For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.
nkjv@Romans:10:3 @ For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God.
nkjv@Romans:10:4 @ For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.
nkjv@Romans:10:5 @ For Moses writes about the righteousness which is of the law, "The man who does those things shall live by them."
nkjv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, "Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven?"' (that is, to bring Christ down from above)
nkjv@Romans:10:7 @ or, ""Who will descend into the abyss?"' (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).
nkjv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith which we preach):
nkjv@Romans:10:9 @ that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
nkjv@Romans:10:10 @ For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
nkjv@Romans:10:11 @ For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame."
nkjv@Romans:10:12 @ For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.
nkjv@Romans:10:13 @ For "whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved."
nkjv@Romans:10:14 @ How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher?
nkjv@Romans: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, Who bring glad tidings of good things!"
nkjv@Romans:10:16 @ But they have not all obeyed the gospel. For Isaiah says, "LORD, who has believed our report?"
nkjv@Romans:10:17 @ So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
nkjv@Romans:10:18 @ But I say, have they not heard? Yes indeed: "Their sound has gone out to all the earth, And their words to the ends of the world."
nkjv@Romans:10:19 @ But I say, did Israel not know? First Moses says: "I will provoke you to jealousy by those who are not a nation, I will move you to anger by a foolish nation."
nkjv@Romans:10:20 @ But Isaiah is very bold and says: "I was found by those who did not seek Me; I was made manifest to those who did not ask for Me."
nkjv@Romans:10:21 @ But to Israel he says: "All day long I have stretched out My hands To a disobedient and contrary people."
nkjv@Romans:11:1 @ I say then, has God cast away His people? Certainly not! For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
nkjv@Romans:11:2 @ God has not cast away His people whom He foreknew. Or do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel, saying,
nkjv@Romans:11:3 @ "LORD, they have killed Your prophets and torn down Your altars, and I alone am left, and they seek my life"?
nkjv@Romans:11:4 @ But what does the divine response say to him? "I have reserved for Myself seven thousand men who have not bowed the knee to Baal."
nkjv@Romans:11:5 @ Even so then, at this present time there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
nkjv@Romans:11:6 @ And if by grace, then it is no longer of works; otherwise grace is no longer grace. But if it is of works, it is no longer grace; otherwise work is no longer work.
nkjv@Romans:11:7 @ What then? Israel has not obtained what it seeks; but the elect have obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
nkjv@Romans:11:8 @ Just as it is written: "God has given them a spirit of stupor, Eyes that they should not see And ears that they should not hear, To this very day."
nkjv@Romans:11:9 @ And David says: "Let their table become a snare and a trap, A stumbling block and a recompense to them.
nkjv@Romans:11:10 @ Let their eyes be darkened, so that they do not see, And bow down their back always."
nkjv@Romans:11:11 @ I say then, have they stumbled that they should fall? Certainly not! But through their fall, to provoke them to jealousy, salvation has come to the Gentiles.
nkjv@Romans:11:12 @ Now if their fall is riches for the world, and their failure riches for the Gentiles, how much more their fullness!
nkjv@Romans:11:13 @ For I speak to you Gentiles; inasmuch as I am an apostle to the Gentiles, I magnify my ministry,
nkjv@Romans:11:14 @ if by any means I may provoke to jealousy those who are my flesh and save some of them.
nkjv@Romans:11:15 @ For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?
nkjv@Romans:11:16 @ For if the firstfruit is holy, the lump is also holy; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.
nkjv@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 with them became a partaker of the root and fatness of the olive tree,
nkjv@Romans:11:18 @ do not boast against the branches. But if you do boast, remember that you do not support the root, but the root supports you.
nkjv@Romans:11:19 @ You will say then, "Branches were broken off that I might be grafted in."
nkjv@Romans:11:20 @ Well said. Because of unbelief they were broken off, and you stand by faith. Do not be haughty, but fear.
nkjv@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, He may not spare you either.
nkjv@Romans:11:22 @ Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in His goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.
nkjv@Romans:11:23 @ And they also, if they do not continue in unbelief, will be grafted in, for God is able to graft them in again.
nkjv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you were cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and were grafted contrary to nature into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these, who are natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
nkjv@Romans:11:25 @ For I do not desire, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own opinion, that blindness in part has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in.
nkjv@Romans:11:26 @ And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: "The Deliverer will come out of Zion, And He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;
nkjv@Romans:11:27 @ For this is My covenant with them, When I take away their sins."
nkjv@Romans:11:28 @ Concerning the gospel they are enemies for your sake, but concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers.
nkjv@Romans:11:29 @ For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable.
nkjv@Romans:11:30 @ For as you were once disobedient to God, yet have now obtained mercy through their disobedience,
nkjv@Romans:11:31 @ even so these also have now been disobedient, that through the mercy shown you they also may obtain mercy.
nkjv@Romans:11:32 @ For God has committed them all to disobedience, that He might have mercy on all.
nkjv@Romans:11:33 @ Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and His ways past finding out!
nkjv@Romans:11:34 @ "For who has known the mind of the LORD? Or who has become His counselor?"
nkjv@Romans:11:35 @ "Or who has first given to Him And it shall be repaid to him?"
nkjv@Romans:11:36 @ For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen.
nkjv@Romans:12:1 @ I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
nkjv@Romans:12:2 @ And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
nkjv@Romans:12:3 @ For I say, through the grace given to me, to everyone who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, as God has dealt to each one a measure of faith.
nkjv@Romans:12:4 @ For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function,
nkjv@Romans:12:5 @ so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another.
nkjv@Romans:12:6 @ Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith;
nkjv@Romans:12:7 @ or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching;
nkjv@Romans:12:8 @ he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness.
nkjv@Romans:12:9 @ Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good.
nkjv@Romans:12:10 @ Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another;
nkjv@Romans:12:11 @ not lagging in diligence, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord;
nkjv@Romans:12:12 @ rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer;
nkjv@Romans:12:13 @ distributing to the needs of the saints, given to hospitality.
nkjv@Romans:12:14 @ Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
nkjv@Romans:12:15 @ Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.
nkjv@Romans:12:16 @ Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.
nkjv@Romans:12:17 @ Repay no one evil for evil. Have regard for good things in the sight of all men.
nkjv@Romans:12:18 @ If it is possible, as much as depends on you, live peaceably with all men.
nkjv@Romans:12:19 @ Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay," says the Lord.
nkjv@Romans:12:20 @ Therefore "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; If he is thirsty, give him a drink; For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head."
nkjv@Romans:12:21 @ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
nkjv@Romans:13:1 @ Let every soul be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God.
nkjv@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore whoever resists the authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will bring judgment on themselves.
nkjv@Romans:13:3 @ For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to evil. Do you want to be unafraid of the authority? Do what is good, and you will have praise from the same.
nkjv@Romans:13:4 @ For he is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.
nkjv@Romans:13:5 @ Therefore you must be subject, not only because of wrath but also for conscience' sake.
nkjv@Romans:13:6 @ For because of this you also pay taxes, for they are God's ministers attending continually to this very thing.
nkjv@Romans:13:7 @ Render therefore to all their due: taxes to whom taxes are due, customs to whom customs, fear to whom fear, honor to whom honor.
nkjv@Romans:13:8 @ Owe no one anything except to love one another, for he who loves another has fulfilled the law.
nkjv@Romans:13:9 @ For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not bear false witness," "You shall not covet," and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."
nkjv@Romans:13:10 @ Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
nkjv@Romans:13:11 @ And do this, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep; for now our salvation is nearer than when we first believed.
nkjv@Romans:13:12 @ The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light.
nkjv@Romans:13:13 @ Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy.
nkjv@Romans:13:14 @ But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.
nkjv@Romans:14:1 @ Receive one who is weak in the faith, but not to disputes over doubtful things.
nkjv@Romans:14:2 @ For one believes he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
nkjv@Romans:14:3 @ Let not him who eats despise him who does not eat, and let not him who does not eat judge him who eats; for God has received him.
nkjv@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you to judge another's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
nkjv@Romans:14:5 @ One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced in his own mind.
nkjv@Romans:14:6 @ He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.
nkjv@Romans:14:7 @ For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.
nkjv@Romans:14:8 @ For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.
nkjv@Romans:14:9 @ For to this end Christ died and rose and lived again, that He might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
nkjv@Romans:14:10 @ But why do you judge your brother? Or why do you show contempt for your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
nkjv@Romans:14:11 @ For it is written: "As I live, says the LORD, Every knee shall bow to Me, And every tongue shall confess to God."
nkjv@Romans:14:12 @ So then each of us shall give account of himself to God.
nkjv@Romans:14:13 @ Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather resolve this, not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother's way.
nkjv@Romans:14:14 @ I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
nkjv@Romans:14:15 @ Yet if your brother is grieved because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died.
nkjv@Romans:14:16 @ Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil;
nkjv@Romans:14:17 @ for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
nkjv@Romans:14:18 @ For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
nkjv@Romans:14:19 @ Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.
nkjv@Romans:14:20 @ Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are pure, but it is evil for the man who eats with offense.
nkjv@Romans:14:21 @ It is good neither to eat meat nor drink wine nor do anything by which your brother stumbles or is offended or is made weak.
nkjv@Romans:14:22 @ Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves.
nkjv@Romans:14:23 @ But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat from faith; for whatever is not from faith is sin.
nkjv@Romans:15:1 @ We then who are strong ought to bear with the scruples of the weak, and not to please ourselves.
nkjv@Romans:15:2 @ Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, leading to edification.
nkjv@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."
nkjv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.
nkjv@Romans:15:5 @ Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus,
nkjv@Romans:15:6 @ that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
nkjv@Romans:15:7 @ Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God.
nkjv@Romans:15:8 @ Now I say that Jesus Christ has become a servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers,
nkjv@Romans:15:9 @ and that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written: "For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles, And sing to Your name."
nkjv@Romans:15:10 @ And again he says: "Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people!"
nkjv@Romans:15:11 @ And again: "Praise the LORD, all you Gentiles! Laud Him, all you peoples!"
nkjv@Romans:15:12 @ And again, Isaiah says: "There shall be a root of Jesse; And He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles, In Him the Gentiles shall hope."
nkjv@Romans:15:13 @ Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
nkjv@Romans:15:14 @ Now I myself am confident concerning you, my brethren, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.
nkjv@Romans:15:15 @ Nevertheless, brethren, I have written more boldly to you on some points, as reminding you, because of the grace given to me by God,
nkjv@Romans:15:16 @ that I might be a minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering of the Gentiles might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.
nkjv@Romans:15:17 @ Therefore I have reason to glory in Christ Jesus in the things which pertain to God.
nkjv@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, to make the Gentiles obedient--
nkjv@Romans:15:19 @ in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.
nkjv@Romans:15:20 @ And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build on another man's foundation,
nkjv@Romans:15:21 @ but as it is written: "To whom He was not announced, they shall see; And those who have not heard shall understand."
nkjv@Romans:15:22 @ For this reason I also have been much hindered from coming to you.
nkjv@Romans:15:23 @ But now no longer having a place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come to you,
nkjv@Romans:15:24 @ whenever I journey to Spain, I shall come to you. For I hope to see you on my journey, and to be helped on my way there by you, if first I may enjoy your company for a while.
nkjv@Romans:15:25 @ But now I am going to Jerusalem to minister to the saints.
nkjv@Romans:15:26 @ For it pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.
nkjv@Romans:15:27 @ It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in material things.
nkjv@Romans:15:28 @ Therefore, when I have performed this and have sealed to them this fruit, I shall go by way of you to Spain.
nkjv@Romans:15:29 @ But I know that when I come to you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.
nkjv@Romans:15:30 @ Now I beg you, brethren, through the Lord Jesus Christ, and through the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in prayers to God for me,
nkjv@Romans:15:31 @ that I may be delivered from those in Judea who do not believe, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints,
nkjv@Romans:15:32 @ that I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may be refreshed together with you.
nkjv@Romans:15:33 @ Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.
nkjv@Romans:16:1 @ I commend to you Phoebe our sister, who is a servant of the church in Cenchrea,
nkjv@Romans:16:2 @ that you may receive her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and assist her in whatever business she has need of you; for indeed she has been a helper of many and of myself also.
nkjv@Romans:16:3 @ Greet Priscilla and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus,
nkjv@Romans:16:4 @ who risked their own necks for my life, to whom not only I give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles.
nkjv@Romans:16:5 @ Likewise greet the church that is in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who is the firstfruits of Achaia to Christ.
nkjv@Romans:16:6 @ Greet Mary, who labored much for us.
nkjv@Romans:16:7 @ Greet Andronicus and Junia, my countrymen and my fellow prisoners, who are of note among the apostles, who also were in Christ before me.
