rsv@Isaiah:1:9 @ If the LORD of hosts had not left us a few survivors, we should have been like Sodom, and become like Gomor'rah.

rsv@Isaiah:1:10 @ Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom! Give ear to the teaching of our God, you people of Gomor'rah!

rsv@Isaiah:1:11 @ "What to me is the multitude of your sacrifices? says the LORD; I have had enough of burnt offerings of rams and the fat of fed beasts; I do not delight in the blood of bulls, or of lambs, or of he-goats.

rsv@Isaiah:1:12 @ "When you come to appear before me, who requires of you this trampling of my courts?

rsv@Isaiah:1:13 @ Bring no more vain offerings; incense is an abomination to me. New moon and sabbath and the calling of assemblies-- I cannot endure iniquity and solemn assembly.

rsv@Isaiah:1:14 @ Your new moons and your appointed feasts my soul hates; they have become a burden to me, I am weary of bearing them.

rsv@Isaiah:1:15 @ When you spread forth your hands, I will hide my eyes from you; even though you make many prayers, I will not listen; your hands are full of blood.

rsv@Isaiah:1:16 @ Wash yourselves; make yourselves clean; remove the evil of your doings from before my eyes; cease to do evil,

rsv@Isaiah:1:18 @ "Come now, let us reason together, says the LORD: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool.

rsv@Isaiah:1:20 @ But if you refuse and rebel, you shall be devoured by the sword; for the mouth of the LORD has spoken."

rsv@Isaiah:1:21 @ How the faithful city has become a harlot, she that was full of justice! Righteousness lodged in her, but now murderers.

rsv@Isaiah:1:22 @ Your silver has become dross, your wine mixed with water.

rsv@Isaiah:1:23 @ Your princes are rebels and companions of thieves. Every one loves a bribe and runs after gifts. They do not defend the fatherless, and the widow's cause does not come to them.

rsv@Isaiah:1:25 @ I will turn my hand against you and will smelt away your dross as with lye and remove all your alloy.

rsv@Isaiah:1:26 @ And I will restore your judges as at the first, and your counselors as at the beginning. Afterward you shall be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city."

rsv@Isaiah:1:31 @ And the strong shall become tow, and his work a spark, and both of them shall burn together, with none to quench them.

rsv@Isaiah:2:7 @ Their land is filled with silver and gold, and there is no end to their treasures; their land is filled with horses, and there is no end to their chariots.

rsv@Isaiah:2:22 @ Turn away from man in whose nostrils is breath, for of what account is he?

rsv@Isaiah:3:6 @ When a man takes hold of his brother in the house of his father, saying: "You have a mantle; you shall be our leader, and this heap of ruins shall be under your rule";

rsv@Isaiah:3:12 @ My people-- children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, your leaders mislead you, and confuse the course of your paths.

rsv@Isaiah:3:14 @ The LORD enters into judgment with the elders and princes of his people: "It is you who have devoured the vineyard, the spoil of the poor is in your houses.

rsv@Isaiah:4:2 @ In that day the branch of the LORD shall be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the land shall be the pride and glory of the survivors of Israel.

rsv@Isaiah:4:4 @ when the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion and cleansed the bloodstains of Jerusalem from its midst by a spirit of judgment and by a spirit of burning.

rsv@Isaiah:5:5 @ And now I will tell you what I will do to my vineyard. I will remove its hedge, and it shall be devoured; I will break down its wall, and it shall be trampled down.

rsv@Isaiah:5:9 @ The LORD of hosts has sworn in my hearing: "Surely many houses shall be desolate, large and beautiful houses, without inhabitant.

rsv@Isaiah:5:14 @ Therefore Sheol has enlarged its appetite and opened its mouth beyond measure, and the nobility of Jerusalem and her multitude go down, her throng and he who exults in her.

rsv@Isaiah:5:17 @ Then shall the lambs graze as in their pasture, fatlings and kids shall feed among the ruins.

rsv@Isaiah:5:19 @ who say: "Let him make haste, let him speed his work that we may see it; let the purpose of the Holy One of Israel draw near, and let it come, that we may know it!"

rsv@Isaiah:5:24 @ Therefore, as the tongue of fire devours the stubble, and as dry grass sinks down in the flame, so their root will be as rottenness, and their blossom go up like dust; for they have rejected the law of the LORD of hosts, and have despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.

rsv@Isaiah:5:25 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against his people, and he stretched out his hand against them and smote them, and the mountains quaked; and their corpses were as refuse in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away and his hand is stretched out still.

rsv@Isaiah:6:6 @ Then flew one of the seraphim to me, having in his hand a burning coal which he had taken with tongs from the altar.

rsv@Isaiah:6:7 @ And he touched my mouth, and said: "Behold, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away, and your sin forgiven."

rsv@Isaiah:7:4 @ and say to him, `Take heed, be quiet, do not fear, and do not let your heart be faint because of these two smoldering stumps of firebrands, at the fierce anger of Rezin and Syria and the son of Remali'ah.

rsv@Isaiah:7:6 @ "Let us go up against Judah and terrify it, and let us conquer it for ourselves, and set up the son of Ta'be-el as king in the midst of it,"

rsv@Isaiah:7:9 @ And the head of E'phraim is Sama'ria, and the head of Sama'ria is the son of Remali'ah. If you will not believe, surely you shall not be established.'"

rsv@Isaiah:7:11 @ "Ask a sign of the LORD your God; let it be deep as Sheol or high as heaven."

rsv@Isaiah:7:15 @ He shall eat curds and honey when he knows how to refuse the evil and choose the good.

rsv@Isaiah:7:17 @ The LORD will bring upon you and upon your people and upon your father's house such days as have not come since the day that E'phraim departed from Judah-- the king of Assyria."

rsv@Isaiah:7:18 @ In that day the LORD will whistle for the fly which is at the sources of the streams of Egypt, and for the bee which is in the land of Assyria.

rsv@Isaiah:7:19 @ And they will all come and settle in the steep ravines, and in the clefts of the rocks, and on all the thornbushes, and on all the pastures.

rsv@Isaiah:7:22 @ and because of the abundance of milk which they give, he will eat curds; for every one that is left in the land will eat curds and honey.

rsv@Isaiah:8:2 @ And I got reliable witnesses, Uri'ah the priest and Zechari'ah the son of Jeberechi'ah, to attest for me.

rsv@Isaiah:8:8 @ and it will sweep on into Judah, it will overflow and pass on, reaching even to the neck; and its outspread wings will fill the breadth of your land, O Imman'u-el."

rsv@Isaiah:8:9 @ Be broken, you peoples, and be dismayed; give ear, all you far countries; gird yourselves and be dismayed; gird yourselves and be dismayed.

rsv@Isaiah:8:13 @ But the LORD of hosts, him you shall regard as holy; let him be your fear, and let him be your dread.

rsv@Isaiah:8:20 @ To the teaching and to the testimony! Surely for this word which they speak there is no dawn.

rsv@Isaiah:8:21 @ They will pass through the land, greatly distressed and hungry; and when they are hungry, they will be enraged and will curse their king and their God, and turn their faces upward;

rsv@Isaiah:9:4 @ For the yoke of his burden, and the staff for his shoulder, the rod of his oppressor, thou hast broken as on the day of Mid'ian.

rsv@Isaiah:9:5 @ For every boot of the tramping warrior in battle tumult and every garment rolled in blood will be burned as fuel for the fire.

rsv@Isaiah:9:12 @ The Syrians on the east and the Philistines on the west devour Israel with open mouth. For all this his anger is not turned away and his hand is stretched out still.

rsv@Isaiah:9:13 @ The people did not turn to him who smote them, nor seek the LORD of hosts.

rsv@Isaiah:9:17 @ Therefore the Lord does not rejoice over their young men, and has no compassion on their fatherless and widows; for every one is godless and an evildoer, and every mouth speaks folly. For all this his anger is not turned away and his hand is stretched out still.

rsv@Isaiah:9:18 @ For wickedness burns like a fire, it consumes briers and thorns; it kindles the thickets of the forest, and they roll upward in a column of smoke.

rsv@Isaiah:9:19 @ Through the wrath of the LORD of hosts the land is burned, and the people are like fuel for the fire; no man spares his brother.

rsv@Isaiah:9:20 @ They snatch on the right, but are still hungry, and they devour on the left, but are not satisfied; each devours his neighbor's flesh,

rsv@Isaiah:9:21 @ Manas'seh E'phraim, and E'phraim Manas'seh, and together they are against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away and his hand is stretched out still.

rsv@Isaiah:10:2 @ to turn aside the needy from justice and to rob the poor of my people of their right, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!

rsv@Isaiah:10:3 @ What will you do on the day of punishment, in the storm which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help, and where will you leave your wealth?

rsv@Isaiah:10:4 @ Nothing remains but to crouch among the prisoners or fall among the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away and his hand is stretched out still.

rsv@Isaiah:10:5 @ Ah, Assyria, the rod of my anger, the staff of my fury!

rsv@Isaiah:10:13 @ For he says: "By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom, for I have understanding; I have removed the boundaries of peoples, and have plundered their treasures; like a bull I have brought down those who sat on thrones.

rsv@Isaiah:10:16 @ Therefore the Lord, the LORD of hosts, will send wasting sickness among his stout warriors, and under his glory a burning will be kindled, like the burning of fire.

rsv@Isaiah:10:17 @ The light of Israel will become a fire, and his Holy One a flame; and it will burn and devour his thorns and briers in one day.

rsv@Isaiah:10:20 @ In that day the remnant of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no more lean upon him that smote them, but will lean upon the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.

rsv@Isaiah:10:21 @ A remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.

rsv@Isaiah:10:22 @ For though your people Israel be as the sand of the sea, only a remnant of them will return. Destruction is decreed, overflowing with righteousness.

rsv@Isaiah:10:26 @ And the LORD of hosts will wield against them a scourge, as when he smote Mid'ian at the rock of Oreb; and his rod will be over the sea, and he will lift it as he did in Egypt.

rsv@Isaiah:11:9 @ They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.

rsv@Isaiah:11:12 @ He will raise an ensign for the nations, and will assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.

rsv@Isaiah:12:1 @ You will say in that day: "I will give thanks to thee, O LORD, for though thou wast angry with me, thy anger turned away, and thou didst comfort me.

rsv@Isaiah:12:6 @ Shout, and sing for joy, O inhabitant of Zion, for great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel."

rsv@Isaiah:13:14 @ And like a hunted gazelle, or like sheep with none to gather them, every man will turn to his own people, and every man will flee to his own land.

rsv@Isaiah:13:21 @ But wild beasts will lie down there, and its houses will be full of howling creatures; there ostriches will dwell, and there satyrs will dance.

rsv@Isaiah:14:3 @ When the LORD has given you rest from your pain and turmoil and the hard service with which you were made to serve,

rsv@Isaiah:14:4 @ you will take up this taunt against the king of Babylon: "How the oppressor has ceased, the insolent fury ceased!

rsv@Isaiah:14:11 @ Your pomp is brought down to Sheol, the sound of your harps; maggots are the bed beneath you, and worms are your covering.

rsv@Isaiah:14:13 @ You said in your heart, `I will ascend to heaven; above the stars of God I will set my throne on high; I will sit on the mount of assembly in the far north;

rsv@Isaiah:14:19 @ but you are cast out, away from your sepulchre, like a loathed untimely birth, clothed with the slain, those pierced by the sword, who go down to the stones of the Pit, like a dead body trodden under foot.

rsv@Isaiah:14:20 @ You will not be joined with them in burial, because you have destroyed your land, you have slain your people. "May the descendants of evildoers nevermore be named!

rsv@Isaiah:14:24 @ The LORD of hosts has sworn: "As I have planned, so shall it be, and as I have purposed, so shall it stand,

rsv@Isaiah:14:25 @ that I will break the Assyrian in my land, and upon my mountains trample him under foot; and his yoke shall depart from them, and his burden from their shoulder."

rsv@Isaiah:14:26 @ This is the purpose that is purposed concerning the whole earth; and this is the hand that is stretched out over all the nations.

rsv@Isaiah:14:27 @ For the LORD of hosts has purposed, and who will annul it? His hand is stretched out, and who will turn it back?

rsv@Isaiah:14:30 @ And the first-born of the poor will feed, and the needy lie down in safety; but I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant I will slay.

rsv@Isaiah:15:6 @ the waters of Nimrim are a desolation; the grass is withered, the new growth fails, the verdure is no more.

rsv@Isaiah:16:3 @ "Give counsel, grant justice; make your shade like night at the height of noon; hide the outcasts, betray not the fugitive;

rsv@Isaiah:16:4 @ let the outcasts of Moab sojourn among you; be a refuge to them from the destroyer. When the oppressor is no more, and destruction has ceased, and he who tramples under foot has vanished from the land,

rsv@Isaiah:16:7 @ Therefore let Moab wail, let every one wail for Moab. Mourn, utterly stricken, for the raisin-cakes of Kir-har'eseth.

rsv@Isaiah:16:9 @ Therefore I weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah; I drench you with my tears, O Heshbon and Ele-a'leh; for upon your fruit and your harvest the battle shout has fallen.

rsv@Isaiah:16:14 @ But now the LORD says, "In three years, like the years of a hireling, the glory of Moab will be brought into contempt, in spite of all his great multitude, and those who survive will be very few and feeble."

rsv@Isaiah:17:6 @ Gleanings will be left in it, as when an olive tree is beaten-- two or three berries in the top of the highest bough, four or five on the branches of a fruit tree, says the LORD God of Israel.

rsv@Isaiah:17:10 @ For you have forgotten the God of your salvation, and have not remembered the Rock of your refuge; therefore, though you plant pleasant plants and set out slips of an alien god,

rsv@Isaiah:17:11 @ though you make them grow on the day that you plant them, and make them blossom in the morning that you sow; yet the harvest will flee away in a day of grief and incurable pain.

rsv@Isaiah:19:8 @ The fishermen will mourn and lament, all who cast hook in the Nile; and they will languish who spread nets upon the water.

rsv@Isaiah:19:12 @ Where then are your wise men? Let them tell you and make known what the LORD of hosts has purposed against Egypt.

rsv@Isaiah:19:17 @ And the land of Judah will become a terror to the Egyptians; every one to whom it is mentioned will fear because of the purpose which the LORD of hosts has purposed against them.

rsv@Isaiah:19:21 @ And the LORD will make himself known to the Egyptians; and the Egyptians will know the LORD in that day and worship with sacrifice and burnt offering, and they will make vows to the LORD and perform them.

rsv@Isaiah:19:22 @ And the LORD will smite Egypt, smiting and healing, and they will return to the LORD, and he will heed their supplications and heal them.

rsv@Isaiah:20:2 @ at that time the LORD had spoken by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, "Go, and loose the sackcloth from your loins and take off your shoes from your feet," and he had done so, walking naked and barefoot--

rsv@Isaiah:21:4 @ My mind reels, horror has appalled me; the twilight I longed for has been turned for me into trembling.

rsv@Isaiah:22:2 @ you who are full of shoutings, tumultuous city, exultant town? Your slain are not slain with the sword or dead in battle.

rsv@Isaiah:22:3 @ All your rulers have fled together, without the bow they were captured. All of you who were found were captured, though they had fled far away.

rsv@Isaiah:22:7 @ Your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen took their stand at the gates.

rsv@Isaiah:22:12 @ In that day the Lord GOD of hosts called to weeping and mourning, to baldness and girding with sackcloth;

rsv@Isaiah:22:14 @ The LORD of hosts has revealed himself in my ears: "Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you till you die," says the Lord GOD of hosts.

rsv@Isaiah:22:16 @ What have you to do here and whom have you here, that you have hewn here a tomb for yourself, you who hew a tomb on the height, and carve a habitation for yourself in the rock?

rsv@Isaiah:22:17 @ Behold, the LORD will hurl you away violently, O you strong man. He will seize firm hold on you,

rsv@Isaiah:22:18 @ and whirl you round and round, and throw you like a ball into a wide land; there you shall die, and there shall be your splendid chariots, you shame of your master's house.

rsv@Isaiah:22:19 @ I will thrust you from your office, and you will be cast down from your station.

rsv@Isaiah:22:21 @ and I will clothe him with your robe, and will bind your girdle on him, and will commit your authority to his hand; and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem and to the house of Judah.

rsv@Isaiah:22:23 @ And I will fasten him like a peg in a sure place, and he will become a throne of honor to his father's house.

rsv@Isaiah:22:25 @ In that day, says the LORD of hosts, the peg that was fastened in a sure place will give way; and it will be cut down and fall, and the burden that was upon it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken."

rsv@Isaiah:23:2 @ Be still, O inhabitants of the coast, O merchants of Sidon; your messengers passed over the sea

rsv@Isaiah:23:3 @ and were on many waters; your revenue was the grain of Shihor, the harvest of the Nile; you were the merchant of the nations.

rsv@Isaiah:23:7 @ Is this your exultant city whose origin is from days of old, whose feet carried her to settle afar?

rsv@Isaiah:23:8 @ Who has purposed this against Tyre, the bestower of crowns, whose merchants were princes, whose traders were the honored of the earth?

rsv@Isaiah:23:9 @ The LORD of hosts has purposed it, to defile the pride of all glory, to dishonor all the honored of the earth.

rsv@Isaiah:23:10 @ Overflow your land like the Nile, O daughter of Tarshish; there is no restraint any more.

rsv@Isaiah:23:14 @ Wail, O ships of Tarshish, for your stronghold is laid waste.

rsv@Isaiah:23:17 @ At the end of seventy years, the LORD will visit Tyre, and she will return to her hire, and will play the harlot with all the kingdoms of the world upon the face of the earth.

rsv@Isaiah:24:1 @ Behold, the LORD will lay waste the earth and make it desolate, and he will twist its surface and scatter its inhabitants.

rsv@Isaiah:24:4 @ The earth mourns and withers, the world languishes and withers; the heavens languish together with the earth.

rsv@Isaiah:24:6 @ Therefore a curse devours the earth, and its inhabitants suffer for their guilt; therefore the inhabitants of the earth are scorched, and few men are left.

rsv@Isaiah:24:7 @ The wine mourns, the vine languishes, all the merry-hearted sigh.

rsv@Isaiah:25:1 @ O LORD, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things, plans formed of old, faithful and sure.

rsv@Isaiah:25:9 @ It will be said on that day, "Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us. This is the LORD; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation."

rsv@Isaiah:26:8 @ In the path of thy judgments, O LORD, we wait for thee; thy memorial name is the desire of our soul.

rsv@Isaiah:26:12 @ O LORD, thou wilt ordain peace for us, thou hast wrought for us all our works.

rsv@Isaiah:26:13 @ O LORD our God, other lords besides thee have ruled over us, but thy name alone we acknowledge.

rsv@Isaiah:26:16 @ O LORD, in distress they sought thee, they poured out a prayer when thy chastening was upon them.

rsv@Isaiah:26:20 @ Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until the wrath is past.

rsv@Isaiah:27:4 @ I have no wrath. Would that I had thorns and briers to battle! I would set out against them, I would burn them up together.

rsv@Isaiah:27:8 @ Measure by measure, by exile thou didst contend with them; he removed them with his fierce blast in the day of the east wind.

rsv@Isaiah:28:6 @ and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.

rsv@Isaiah:28:15 @ Because you have said, "We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement; when the overwhelming scourge passes through it will not come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter";

rsv@Isaiah:28:16 @ therefore thus says the Lord GOD, "Behold, I am laying in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation: `He who believes will not be in haste.'

rsv@Isaiah:28:18 @ Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through you will be beaten down by it.

rsv@Isaiah:28:22 @ Now therefore do not scoff, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord GOD of hosts upon the whole land.

rsv@Isaiah:28:25 @ When he has leveled its surface, does he not scatter dill, sow cummin, and put in wheat in rows and barley in its proper place, and spelt as the border?

rsv@Isaiah:29:4 @ Then deep from the earth you shall speak, from low in the dust your words shall come; your voice shall come from the ground like the voice of a ghost, and your speech shall whisper out of the dust.

rsv@Isaiah:29:5 @ But the multitude of your foes shall be like small dust, and the multitude of the ruthless like passing chaff. And in an instant, suddenly,

rsv@Isaiah:29:6 @ you will be visited by the LORD of hosts with thunder and with earthquake and great noise, with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.

rsv@Isaiah:29:9 @ Stupefy yourselves and be in a stupor, blind yourselves and be blind! Be drunk, but not with wine; stagger, but not with strong drink!

rsv@Isaiah:29:10 @ For the LORD has poured out upon you a spirit of deep sleep, and has closed your eyes, the prophets, and covered your heads, the seers.

rsv@Isaiah:29:16 @ You turn things upside down! Shall the potter be regarded as the clay; that the thing made should say of its maker, "He did not make me"; or the thing formed say of him who formed it, "He has no understanding"?

rsv@Isaiah:29:17 @ Is it not yet a very little while until Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field shall be regarded as a forest?

rsv@Isaiah:29:21 @ who by a word make a man out to be an offender, and lay a snare for him who reproves in the gate, and with an empty plea turn aside him who is in the right.

rsv@Isaiah:29:24 @ And those who err in spirit will come to understanding, and those who murmur will accept instruction."

rsv@Isaiah:30:3 @ Therefore shall the protection of Pharaoh turn to your shame, and the shelter in the shadow of Egypt to your humiliation.

rsv@Isaiah:30:6 @ An oracle on the beasts of the Negeb. Through a land of trouble and anguish, from where come the lioness and the lion, the viper and the flying serpent, they carry their riches on the backs of asses, and their treasures on the humps of camels, to a people that cannot profit them.

rsv@Isaiah:30:11 @ leave the way, turn aside from the path, let us hear no more of the Holy One of Israel."

rsv@Isaiah:30:15 @ For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel, "In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength." And you would not,

rsv@Isaiah:30:16 @ but you said, "No! We will speed upon horses," therefore you shall speed away; and, "We will ride upon swift steeds," therefore your pursuers shall be swift.

rsv@Isaiah:30:19 @ Yea, O people in Zion who dwell at Jerusalem; you shall weep no more. He will surely be gracious to you at the sound of your cry; when he hears it, he will answer you.

rsv@Isaiah:30:20 @ And though the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, yet your Teacher will not hide himself any more, but your eyes shall see your Teacher.

rsv@Isaiah:30:21 @ And your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, "This is the way, walk in it," when you turn to the right or when you turn to the left.

rsv@Isaiah:30:22 @ Then you will defile your silver-covered graven images and your gold-plated molten images. You will scatter them as unclean things; you will say to them, "Begone!"

rsv@Isaiah:30:23 @ And he will give rain for the seed with which you sow the ground, and grain, the produce of the ground, which will be rich and plenteous. In that day your cattle will graze in large pastures;

rsv@Isaiah:30:26 @ Moreover the light of the moon will be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day when the LORD binds up the hurt of his people, and heals the wounds inflicted by his blow.

rsv@Isaiah:30:27 @ Behold, the name of the LORD comes from far, burning with his anger, and in thick rising smoke; his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue is like a devouring fire;

rsv@Daniel:5:18 @ O king, the Most High God gave Nebuchadnez'zar your father kingship and greatness and glory and majesty;

rsv@Daniel:5:22 @ And you his son, Belshaz'zar, have not humbled your heart, though you knew all this,

rsv@Daniel:5:23 @ but you have lifted up yourself against the Lord of heaven; and the vessels of his house have been brought in before you, and you and your lords, your wives, and your concubines have drunk wine from them; and you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood, and stone, which do not see or hear or know, but the God in whose hand is your breath, and whose are all your ways, you have not honored.

rsv@Daniel:5:26 @ This is the interpretation of the matter: MENE, God has numbered the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end;

rsv@Daniel:7:7 @ After this I saw in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, terrible and dreadful and exceedingly strong; and it had great iron teeth; it devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the residue with its feet.

rsv@Daniel:8:12 @ And the host was given over to it together with the continual burnt offering through transgression; and truth was cast down to the ground, and the horn acted and prospered.

rsv@Daniel:8:13 @ Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to the one that spoke, "For how long is the vision concerning the continual burnt offering, the transgression that makes desolate, and the giving over of the sanctuary and host to be trampled under foot?"

rsv@Matthew:26:18 @ He said, "Go into the city to a certain one, and say to him, `The Teacher says, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at your house with my disciples.'"

rsv@Matthew:26:28 @ for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

rsv@Matthew:26:40 @ And he came to the disciples and found them sleeping; and he said to Peter, "So, could you not watch with me one hour?

rsv@Matthew:26:45 @ Then he came to the disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

rsv@Matthew:26:52 @ Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place; for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.

rsv@Matthew:26:54 @ But how then should the scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?"

rsv@Matthew:26:55 @ At that hour Jesus said to the crowds, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? Day after day I sat in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me.

rsv@Matthew:26:56 @ But all this has taken place, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled." Then all the disciples forsook him and fled.

rsv@Matthew:26:58 @ But Peter followed him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with the guards to see the end.

rsv@Matthew:26:63 @ But Jesus was silent. And the high priest said to him, "I adjure you by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God."

rsv@Matthew:26:66 @ What is your judgment?" They answered, "He deserves death."

rsv@Matthew:26:69 @ Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. And a maid came up to him, and said, "You also were with Jesus the Galilean."

rsv@Matthew:26:73 @ After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, "Certainly you are also one of them, for your accent betrays you."

rsv@Matthew:26:74 @ Then he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, "I do not know the man." And immediately the cock crowed.

rsv@Matthew:27:4 @ saying, "I have sinned in betraying innocent blood." They said, "What is that to us? See to it yourself."

rsv@Matthew:27:6 @ But the chief priests, taking the pieces of silver, said, "It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since they are blood money."

rsv@Matthew:27:7 @ So they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

rsv@Matthew:27:24 @ So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but rather that a riot was beginning, he took water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood; see to it yourselves."

rsv@Matthew:27:25 @ And all the people answered, "His blood be on us and on our children!"

rsv@Matthew:27:26 @ Then he released for them Barab'bas, and having scourged Jesus, delivered him to be crucified.

rsv@Matthew:27:46 @ And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, la'ma sabach-tha'ni?" that is, "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?"

rsv@Matthew:27:51 @ And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom; and the earth shook, and the rocks were split;

rsv@Matthew:27:54 @ When the centurion and those who were with him, keeping watch over Jesus, saw the earthquake and what took place, they were filled with awe, and said, "Truly this was the Son of God!"

rsv@Matthew:27:64 @ Therefore order the sepulchre to be made secure until the third day, lest his disciples go and steal him away, and tell the people, `He has risen from the dead,' and the last fraud will be worse than the first."

rsv@Matthew:27:65 @ Pilate said to them, "You have a guard of soldiers; go, make it as secure as you can."

rsv@Matthew:27:66 @ So they went and made the sepulchre secure by sealing the stone and setting a guard.

rsv@Mark:1:28 @ And at once his fame spread everywhere throughout all the surrounding region of Galilee.

rsv@Mark:1:36 @ And Simon and those who were with him pursued him,

rsv@Mark:1:44 @ and said to him, "See that you say nothing to any one; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded, for a proof to the people."

rsv@Mark:2:1 @ And when he returned to Caper'na-um after some days, it was reported that he was at home.

rsv@Mark:2:3 @ And they came, bringing to him a paralytic carried by four men.

rsv@Mark:2:5 @ And when Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "My son, your sins are forgiven."

rsv@Mark:2:8 @ And immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they thus questioned within themselves, said to them, "Why do you question thus in your hearts?

rsv@Mark:2:11 @ "I say to you, rise, take up your pallet and go home."

rsv@Mark:2:18 @ Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting; and people came and said to him, "Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?"

rsv@Mark:2:22 @ And no one puts new wine into old wineskins; if he does, the wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost, and so are the skins; but new wine is for fresh skins."

rsv@Mark:3:5 @ And he looked around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, and said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out, and his hand was restored.

rsv@Mark:5:9 @ And Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" He replied, "My name is Legion; for we are many."

rsv@Mark:5:19 @ But he refused, and said to him, "Go home to your friends, and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you."

rsv@Mark:5:23 @ and besought him, saying, "My little daughter is at the point of death. Come and lay your hands on her, so that she may be made well, and live."

rsv@Mark:5:30 @ And Jesus, perceiving in himself that power had gone forth from him, immediately turned about in the crowd, and said, "Who touched my garments?"

rsv@Mark:5:34 @ And he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease."

rsv@Mark:5:35 @ While he was still speaking, there came from the ruler's house some who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?"

rsv@Mark:6:11 @ And if any place will not receive you and they refuse to hear you, when you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet for a testimony against them."

rsv@Mark:6:18 @ For John said to Herod, "It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife."

rsv@Mark:6:21 @ But an opportunity came when Herod on his birthday gave a banquet for his courtiers and officers and the leading men of Galilee.

rsv@Mark:7:5 @ And the Pharisees and the scribes asked him, "Why do your disciples not live according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with hands defiled?"

rsv@Mark:7:9 @ And he said to them, "You have a fine way of rejecting the commandment of God, in order to keep your tradition!

rsv@Mark:7:10 @ For Moses said, `Honor your father and your mother'; and, `He who speaks evil of father or mother, let him surely die';

rsv@Mark:7:36 @ And they were astonished beyond measure, saying, "He has done all things well; he even makes the deaf hear and the dumb speak."

rsv@Mark:8:9 @ And there were about four thousand people.

rsv@Mark:8:17 @ And being aware of it, Jesus said to them, "Why do you discuss the fact that you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive or understand? Are your hearts hardened?

rsv@Mark:8:20 @ "And the seven for the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?" And they said to him, "Seven."

rsv@Mark:8:33 @ But turning and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan! For you are not on the side of God, but of men."

rsv@Mark:9:44 @ And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life lame than with two feet to be thrown into hell.

rsv@Mark:9:45 @ And if your eye causes you to sin, pluck it out; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye than with two eyes to be thrown into hell,

rsv@Mark:9:48 @ Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its saltness, how will you season it? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace with one another."

rsv@Luke:23:40 @ And we indeed justly; for we are receiving the due reward of our deeds; but this man has done nothing wrong."

rsv@Luke:23:41 @ And he said, "Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom."

rsv@Luke:23:43 @ It was now about the sixth hour, and there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour,

rsv@Luke:23:44 @ while the sun's light failed; and the curtain of the temple was torn in two.

rsv@Luke:23:46 @ Now when the centurion saw what had taken place, he praised God, and said, "Certainly this man was innocent!"

rsv@Luke:23:47 @ And all the multitudes who assembled to see the sight, when they saw what had taken place, returned home beating their breasts.

rsv@Luke:23:50 @ who had not consented to their purpose and deed, and he was looking for the kingdom of God.

rsv@Luke:23:55 @ then they returned, and prepared spices and ointments. On the sabbath they rested according to the commandment.

rsv@Luke:24:9 @ and returning from the tomb they told all this to the eleven and to all the rest.

rsv@Luke:24:19 @ and how our chief priests and rulers delivered him up to be condemned to death, and crucified him.

rsv@Luke:24:21 @ Moreover, some women of our company amazed us. They were at the tomb early in the morning

rsv@Luke:24:26 @ And beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.

rsv@Luke:24:27 @ So they drew near to the village to which they were going. He appeared to be going further,

rsv@Luke:24:31 @ They said to each other, "Did not our hearts burn within us while he talked to us on the road, while he opened to us the scriptures?"

rsv@Luke:24:32 @ And they rose that same hour and returned to Jerusalem; and they found the eleven gathered together and those who were with them,

rsv@Luke:24:37 @ And he said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do questionings rise in your hearts?

rsv@Luke:24:43 @ Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures,

rsv@Luke:24:50 @ And they returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

rsv@John:1:22 @ They said to him then, "Who are you? Let us have an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"

rsv@John:1:38 @ Jesus turned, and saw them following, and said to them, "What do you seek?" And they said to him, "Rabbi" (which means Teacher), "where are you staying?"

rsv@John:1:39 @ He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where he was staying; and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

rsv@John:2:4 @ And Jesus said to her, "O woman, what have you to do with me? My hour has not yet come."

rsv@John:2:6 @ Now six stone jars were standing there, for the Jewish rites of purification, each holding twenty or thirty gallons.

rsv@John:2:15 @ And making a whip of cords, he drove them all, with the sheep and oxen, out of the temple; and he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables.

rsv@John:2:22 @ When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; and they believed the scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

rsv@John:3:11 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen; but you do not receive our testimony.

rsv@John:3:25 @ Now a discussion arose between John's disciples and a Jew over purifying.

rsv@John:3:28 @ You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but I have been sent before him.

rsv@John:3:34 @ For he whom God has sent utters the words of God, for it is not by measure that he gives the Spirit;

rsv@John:4:6 @ Jacob's well was there, and so Jesus, wearied as he was with his journey, sat down beside the well. It was about the sixth hour.

rsv@John:4:12 @ Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well, and drank from it himself, and his sons, and his cattle?"

rsv@John:4:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Go, call your husband, and come here."

rsv@John:4:18 @ for you have had five husbands, and he whom you now have is not your husband; this you said truly."

rsv@John:4:20 @ Our fathers worshiped on this mountain; and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship."

rsv@John:4:21 @ Jesus said to her, "Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

rsv@John:4:23 @ But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him.

rsv@John:4:35 @ Do you not say, `There are yet four months, then comes the harvest'? I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see how the fields are already white for harvest.

rsv@John:4:42 @ They said to the woman, "It is no longer because of your words that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Savior of the world."

rsv@John:4:50 @ Jesus said to him, "Go; your son will live." The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went his way.

rsv@John:4:52 @ So he asked them the hour when he began to mend, and they said to him, "Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him."

rsv@John:4:53 @ The father knew that was the hour when Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live"; and he himself believed, and all his household.

rsv@John:5:7 @ Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your pallet, and walk."

rsv@John:5:9 @ So the Jews said to the man who was cured, "It is the sabbath, it is not lawful for you to carry your pallet."

rsv@John:5:10 @ But he answered them, "The man who healed me said to me, `Take up your pallet, and walk.'"

rsv@John:5:11 @ They asked him, "Who is the man who said to you, `Take up your pallet, and walk'?"

rsv@John:5:24 @ "Truly, truly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

rsv@John:5:27 @ Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming when all who are in the tombs will hear his voice

rsv@John:5:28 @ and come forth, those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of judgment.

rsv@John:5:34 @ He was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light.

rsv@John:5:38 @ You search the scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and it is they that bear witness to me;

rsv@John:5:44 @ Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; it is Moses who accuses you, on whom you set your hope.

rsv@John:6:19 @ When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat. They were frightened,

rsv@John:6:26 @ Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves.

rsv@John:6:27 @ Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you; for on him has God the Father set his seal."

rsv@John:6:31 @ Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, `He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'"

rsv@John:6:41 @ The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven."

rsv@John:6:43 @ Jesus answered them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.

rsv@John:6:49 @ Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.

rsv@John:6:61 @ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at it, said to them, "Do you take offense at this?

rsv@John:7:3 @ So his brothers said to him, "Leave here and go to Judea, that your disciples may see the works you are doing.

rsv@John:7:4 @ For no man works in secret if he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world."

rsv@John:7:6 @ Jesus said to them, "My time has not yet come, but your time is always here.

rsv@John:7:8 @ Go to the feast yourselves; I am not going up to this feast, for my time has not yet fully come."

rsv@John:7:30 @ So they sought to arrest him; but no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.

rsv@John:7:38 @ He who believes in me, as the scripture has said, `Out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water.'"

rsv@John:7:42 @ Has not the scripture said that the Christ is descended from David, and comes from Bethlehem, the village where David was?"

rsv@John:7:49 @ But this crowd, who do not know the law, are accursed."

rsv@John:7:51 @ "Does our law judge a man without first giving him a hearing and learning what he does?"

rsv@John:8:13 @ The Pharisees then said to him, "You are bearing witness to yourself; your testimony is not true."

rsv@John:8:17 @ In your law it is written that the testimony of two men is true;

rsv@John:8:19 @ They said to him therefore, "Where is your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither me nor my Father; if you knew me, you would know my Father also."

rsv@John:8:20 @ These words he spoke in the treasury, as he taught in the temple; but no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.

rsv@John:8:21 @ Again he said to them, "I go away, and you will seek me and die in your sin; where I am going, you cannot come."

rsv@John:8:24 @ I told you that you would die in your sins, for you will die in your sins unless you believe that I am he."

rsv@John:8:38 @ I speak of what I have seen with my Father, and you do what you have heard from your father."

rsv@John:8:39 @ They answered him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do what Abraham did,

rsv@John:8:41 @ You do what your father did." They said to him, "We were not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God."

rsv@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I proceeded and came forth from God; I came not of my own accord, but he sent me.

rsv@John:8:44 @ You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has nothing to do with the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

rsv@John:8:53 @ Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? And the prophets died! Who do you claim to be?"

rsv@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.

rsv@John:8:56 @ Your father Abraham rejoiced that he was to see my day; he saw it and was glad."

rsv@John:9:10 @ They said to him, "Then how were your eyes opened?"

rsv@John:9:17 @ So they again said to the blind man, "What do you say about him, since he has opened your eyes?" He said, "He is a prophet."

rsv@John:9:19 @ and asked them, "Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?"

rsv@John:9:20 @ His parents answered, "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind;

rsv@John:9:26 @ They said to him, "What did he do to you? How did he open your eyes?"

rsv@John:9:41 @ Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no guilt; but now that you say, `We see,' your guilt remains.

rsv@John:10:6 @ This figure Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.

rsv@John:10:9 @ I am the door; if any one enters by me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.

rsv@John:10:33 @ The Jews answered him, "It is not for a good work that we stone you but for blasphemy; because you, being a man, make yourself God."

rsv@John:10:34 @ Jesus answered them, "Is it not written in your law, `I said, you are gods'?

rsv@John:10:35 @ If he called them gods to whom the word of God came (and scripture cannot be broken),

rsv@John:11:9 @ Jesus answered, "Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any one walks in the day, he does not stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

rsv@John:11:11 @ Thus he spoke, and then he said to them, "Our friend Laz'arus has fallen asleep, but I go to awake him out of sleep."

rsv@John:11:15 @ and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to him."

rsv@John:11:17 @ Now when Jesus came, he found that Laz'arus had already been in the tomb four days.

rsv@John:11:23 @ Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."

rsv@John:11:24 @ Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."

rsv@John:11:25 @ Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live,

rsv@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, by this time there will be an odor, for he has been dead four days."

rsv@John:11:48 @ If we let him go on thus, every one will believe in him, and the Romans will come and destroy both our holy place and our nation."

rsv@John:11:55 @ Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.

rsv@John:12:3 @ Mary took a pound of costly ointment of pure nard and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment.

rsv@John:12:7 @ Jesus said, "Let her alone, let her keep it for the day of my burial.

rsv@John:12:15 @ "Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your king is coming, sitting on an ass's colt!"

rsv@John:12:23 @ And Jesus answered them, "The hour has come for the Son of man to be glorified.

rsv@John:12:27 @ "Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? `Father, save me from this hour'? No, for this purpose I have come to this hour.

rsv@John:12:30 @ Jesus answered, "This voice has come for your sake, not for mine.

rsv@John:12:38 @ it was that the word spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: "Lord, who has believed our report, and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"

rsv@John:12:40 @ "He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes and perceive with their heart, and turn for me to heal them."

rsv@John:13:1 @ Now before the feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

rsv@John:13:2 @ And during supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him,

rsv@John:13:5 @ Then he poured water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded.

rsv@John:13:14 @ If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.

rsv@John:13:18 @ I am not speaking of you all; I know whom I have chosen; it is that the scripture may be fulfilled, `He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.'

rsv@John:13:38 @ Jesus answered, "Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly, I say to you, the cock will not crow, till you have denied me three times.

rsv@John:14:1 @ "Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me.

rsv@John:14:22 @ Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?"

rsv@John:14:23 @ Jesus answered him, "If a man loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.

rsv@John:14:26 @ But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

rsv@John:14:27 @ Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.

rsv@John:15:6 @ If a man does not abide in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned.

rsv@John:15:11 @ These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.

rsv@John:15:16 @ You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

rsv@John:15:20 @ Remember the word that I said to you, `A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also.

rsv@John:16:2 @ They will put you out of the synagogues; indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.

rsv@John:16:4 @ But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you of them. "I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you.

rsv@John:16:6 @ But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your hearts.

rsv@John:16:7 @ Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

rsv@John:16:19 @ Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him; so he said to them, "Is this what you are asking yourselves, what I meant by saying, `A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me'?

rsv@John:16:20 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy.

rsv@John:16:21 @ When a woman is in travail she has sorrow, because her hour has come; but when she is delivered of the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a child is born into the world.

rsv@John:16:22 @ So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you.

rsv@John:16:24 @ Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name; ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

rsv@John:16:25 @ "I have said this to you in figures; the hour is coming when I shall no longer speak to you in figures but tell you plainly of the Father.

rsv@John:16:29 @ His disciples said, "Ah, now you are speaking plainly, not in any figure!

rsv@John:16:32 @ The hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, every man to his home, and will leave me alone; yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

rsv@John:17:1 @ When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify thy Son that the Son may glorify thee,

rsv@John:17:12 @ While I was with them, I kept them in thy name, which thou hast given me; I have guarded them, and none of them is lost but the son of perdition, that the scripture might be fulfilled.

rsv@John:18:3 @ So Judas, procuring a band of soldiers and some officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, went there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

rsv@John:18:11 @ Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into its sheath; shall I not drink the cup which the Father has given me?"

rsv@John:18:15 @ Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. As this disciple was known to the high priest, he entered the court of the high priest along with Jesus,

rsv@John:18:31 @ Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law." The Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to put any man to death."

rsv@John:18:34 @ Jesus answered, "Do you say this of your own accord, or did others say it to you about me?"

rsv@John:18:35 @ Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me; what have you done?"

rsv@John:19:1 @ Then Pilate took Jesus and scourged him.

rsv@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and arrayed him in a purple robe;

rsv@John:19:5 @ So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said to them, "Behold the man!"

rsv@John:19:6 @ When the chief priests and the officers saw him, they cried out, "Crucify him, crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and crucify him, for I find no crime in him."

rsv@John:19:14 @ Now it was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about the sixth hour. He said to the Jews, "Behold your King!"

rsv@John:19:15 @ They cried out, "Away with him, away with him, crucify him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar."

rsv@John:19:23 @ When the soldiers had crucified Jesus they took his garments and made four parts, one for each soldier; also his tunic. But the tunic was without seam, woven from top to bottom;

rsv@John:19:24 @ so they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see whose it shall be." This was to fulfil the scripture, "They parted my garments among them, and for my clothing they cast lots."

rsv@John:19:26 @ When Jesus saw his mother, and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, "Woman, behold, your son!"

rsv@John:19:27 @ Then he said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!" And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home.

rsv@John:19:28 @ After this Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfil the scripture), "I thirst."

rsv@John:19:36 @ For these things took place that the scripture might be fulfilled, "Not a bone of him shall be broken."

rsv@John:19:37 @ And again another scripture says, "They shall look on him whom they have pierced."

rsv@John:19:39 @ Nicode'mus also, who had at first come to him by night, came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds' weight.

rsv@John:19:40 @ They took the body of Jesus, and bound it in linen cloths with the spices, as is the burial custom of the Jews.

rsv@John:20:9 @ for as yet they did not know the scripture, that he must rise from the dead.

rsv@John:20:14 @ Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus.

rsv@John:20:16 @ Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rab-bo'ni!" (which means Teacher).

rsv@John:20:17 @ Jesus said to her, "Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."

rsv@John:20:27 @ Then he said to Thomas, "Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side; do not be faithless, but believing."

rsv@John:21:18 @ Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you girded yourself and walked where you would; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish to go."

rsv@John:21:20 @ Peter turned and saw following them the disciple whom Jesus loved, who had lain close to his breast at the supper and had said, "Lord, who is it that is going to betray you?"

rsv@Acts:18:22 @ When he had landed at Caesare'a, he went up and greeted the church, and then went down to Antioch.

rsv@Acts:18:24 @ Now a Jew named Apol'los, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, well versed in the scriptures.

rsv@Acts:18:25 @ He had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John.

rsv@Acts:23:23 @ Then he called two of the centurions and said, "At the third hour of the night get ready two hundred soldiers with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen to go as far as Caesare'a.

rsv@Acts:23:32 @ And on the morrow they returned to the barracks, leaving the horsemen to go on with him.

rsv@Acts:23:35 @ he said, "I will hear you when your accusers arrive." And he commanded him to be guarded in Herod's praetorium.

rsv@Acts:24:2 @ and when he was called, Tertul'lus began to accuse him, saying: "Since through you we enjoy much peace, and since by your provision, most excellent Felix, reforms are introduced on behalf of this nation,

rsv@Acts:24:4 @ But, to detain you no further, I beg you in your kindness to hear us briefly.

rsv@Acts:24:7 @ By examining him yourself you will be able to learn from him about everything of which we accuse him."

rsv@Acts:24:13 @ But this I admit to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our fathers, believing everything laid down by the law or written in the prophets,

rsv@Acts:24:14 @ having a hope in God which these themselves accept, that there will be a resurrection of both the just and the unjust.

rsv@Acts:24:17 @ As I was doing this, they found me purified in the temple, without any crowd or tumult. But some Jews from Asia--

rsv@Acts:24:20 @ except this one thing which I cried out while standing among them, `With respect to the resurrection of the dead I am on trial before you this day.'"

rsv@Acts:24:21 @ But Felix, having a rather accurate knowledge of the Way, put them off, saying, "When Lys'ias the tribune comes down, I will decide your case."

rsv@Acts:24:22 @ Then he gave orders to the centurion that he should be kept in custody but should have some liberty, and that none of his friends should be prevented from attending to his needs.

rsv@Acts:24:24 @ And as he argued about justice and self-control and future judgment, Felix was alarmed and said, "Go away for the present; when I have an opportunity I will summon you."

rsv@Acts:25:2 @ And the chief priests and the principal men of the Jews informed him against Paul; and they urged him,

rsv@Acts:26:1 @ Agrippa said to Paul, "You have permission to speak for yourself." Then Paul stretched out his hand and made his defense:

rsv@Acts:26:5 @ They have known for a long time, if they are willing to testify, that according to the strictest party of our religion I have lived as a Pharisee.

rsv@Acts:26:6 @ And now I stand here on trial for hope in the promise made by God to our fathers,

rsv@Acts:26:7 @ to which our twelve tribes hope to attain, as they earnestly worship night and day. And for this hope I am accused by Jews, O king!

rsv@Acts:26:11 @ And I punished them often in all the synagogues and tried to make them blaspheme; and in raging fury against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.

rsv@Acts:26:12 @ "Thus I journeyed to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests.

rsv@Acts:26:13 @ At midday, O king, I saw on the way a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining round me and those who journeyed with me.

rsv@Acts:26:14 @ And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, `Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? It hurts you to kick against the goads.'

rsv@Acts:26:16 @ But rise and stand upon your feet; for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you to serve and bear witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you,

rsv@Acts:26:18 @ to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.'

rsv@Acts:26:20 @ but declared first to those at Damascus, then at Jerusalem and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God and perform deeds worthy of their repentance.

rsv@Acts:26:24 @ And as he thus made his defense, Festus said with a loud voice, "Paul, you are mad; your great learning is turning you mad."

rsv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan Cohort, named Julius.

rsv@Acts:27:6 @ There the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, and put us on board.

rsv@Acts:27:10 @ saying, "Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives."

rsv@Acts:27:11 @ But the centurion paid more attention to the captain and to the owner of the ship than to what Paul said.

rsv@Acts:27:13 @ And when the south wind blew gently, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close inshore.

rsv@Acts:27:16 @ And running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we managed with difficulty to secure the boat;

rsv@Acts:27:17 @ after hoisting it up, they took measures to undergird the ship; then, fearing that they should run on the Syr'tis, they lowered the gear, and so were driven.

rsv@Acts:27:20 @ And when neither sun nor stars appeared for many a day, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.

rsv@Acts:27:21 @ As they had been long without food, Paul then came forward among them and said, "Men, you should have listened to me, and should not have set sail from Crete and incurred this injury and loss.

rsv@Acts:27:27 @ When the fourteenth night had come, as we were drifting across the sea of A'dria, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were nearing land.

rsv@Acts:27:29 @ And fearing that we might run on the rocks, they let out four anchors from the stern, and prayed for day to come.

rsv@Acts:27:31 @ Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, "Unless these men stay in the ship, you cannot be saved."

rsv@Acts:27:33 @ As day was about to dawn, Paul urged them all to take some food, saying, "Today is the fourteenth day that you have continued in suspense and without food, having taken nothing.

rsv@Acts:27:34 @ Therefore I urge you to take some food; it will give you strength, since not a hair is to perish from the head of any of you."

rsv@Acts:27:36 @ Then they all were encouraged and ate some food themselves.

rsv@Acts:27:41 @ But striking a shoal they ran the vessel aground; the bow stuck and remained immovable, and the stern was broken up by the surf.

rsv@Acts:27:43 @ but the centurion, wishing to save Paul, kept them from carrying out their purpose. He ordered those who could swim to throw themselves overboard first and make for the land,

rsv@Acts:28:4 @ When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, "No doubt this man is a murderer. Though he has escaped from the sea, justice has not allowed him to live."

rsv@Acts:28:5 @ He, however, shook off the creature into the fire and suffered no harm.

rsv@Acts:28:9 @ And when this had taken place, the rest of the people on the island who had diseases also came and were cured.

rsv@Acts:28:11 @ After three months we set sail in a ship which had wintered in the island, a ship of Alexandria, with the Twin Brothers as figurehead.

rsv@Acts:28:15 @ And the brethren there, when they heard of us, came as far as the Forum of Ap'pius and Three Taverns to meet us. On seeing them Paul thanked God and took courage.

rsv@Acts:28:17 @ After three days he called together the local leaders of the Jews; and when they had gathered, he said to them, "Brethren, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

rsv@Acts:28:22 @ But we desire to hear from you what your views are; for with regard to this sect we know that everywhere it is spoken against."

rsv@Acts:28:25 @ So, as they disagreed among themselves, they departed, after Paul had made one statement: "The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:

rsv@Acts:28:27 @ For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.'

rsv@Romans:1:2 @ which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy scriptures,

rsv@Romans:1:4 @ and designated Son of God in power according to the Spirit of holiness by his resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord,

rsv@Romans:1:6 @ including yourselves who are called to belong to Jesus Christ;

rsv@Romans:1:7 @ To all God's beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:1:8 @ First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world.

rsv@Romans:1:12 @ that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.

rsv@Romans:1:20 @ Ever since the creation of the world his invisible nature, namely, his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse;

rsv@Romans:1:24 @ Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves,

rsv@Romans:1:25 @ because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed for ever! Amen.

rsv@Romans:1:26 @ For this reason God gave them up to dishonorable passions. Their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural,

rsv@Romans:1:27 @ and the men likewise gave up natural relations with women and were consumed with passion for one another, men committing shameless acts with men and receiving in their own persons the due penalty for their error.

rsv@Romans:1:29 @ They were filled with all manner of wickedness, evil, covetousness, malice. Full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malignity, they are gossips,

rsv@Romans:2:1 @ Therefore you have no excuse, O man, whoever you are, when you judge another; for in passing judgment upon him you condemn yourself, because you, the judge, are doing the very same things.

rsv@Romans:2:3 @ Do you suppose, O man, that when you judge those who do such things and yet do them yourself, you will escape the judgment of God?

rsv@Romans:2:5 @ But by your hard and impenitent heart you are storing up wrath for yourself on the day of wrath when God's righteous judgment will be revealed.

rsv@Romans:2:8 @ but for those who are factious and do not obey the truth, but obey wickedness, there will be wrath and fury.

rsv@Romans:2:14 @ When Gentiles who have not the law do by nature what the law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the law.

rsv@Romans:2:17 @ But if you call yourself a Jew and rely upon the law and boast of your relation to God

rsv@Romans:2:19 @ and if you are sure that you are a guide to the blind, a light to those who are in darkness,

rsv@Romans:2:21 @ you then who teach others, will you not teach yourself? While you preach against stealing, do you steal?

rsv@Romans:2:25 @ Circumcision indeed is of value if you obey the law; but if you break the law, your circumcision becomes uncircumcision.

rsv@Romans:3:5 @ But if our wickedness serves to show the justice of God, what shall we say? That God is unjust to inflict wrath on us? (I speak in a human way.)

rsv@Romans:3:12 @ All have turned aside, together they have gone wrong; no one does good, not even one."

rsv@Romans:3:14 @ "Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness."

rsv@Romans:3:27 @ Then what becomes of our boasting? It is excluded. On what principle? On the principle of works? No, but on the principle of faith.

rsv@Romans:4:1 @ What then shall we say about Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh?

rsv@Romans:4:3 @ For what does the scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness."

rsv@Romans:4:11 @ He received circumcision as a sign or seal of the righteousness which he had by faith while he was still uncircumcised. The purpose was to make him the father of all who believe without being circumcised and who thus have righteousness reckoned to them,

rsv@Romans:4:12 @ and likewise the father of the circumcised who are not merely circumcised but also follow the example of the faith which our father Abraham had before he was circumcised.

rsv@Romans:4:18 @ In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations; as he had been told, "So shall your descendants be."

rsv@Romans:4:24 @ but for ours also. It will be reckoned to us who believe in him that raised from the dead Jesus our Lord,

rsv@Romans:4:25 @ who was put to death for our trespasses and raised for our justification.

rsv@Romans:5:1 @ Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:5:2 @ Through him we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in our hope of sharing the glory of God.

rsv@Romans:5:3 @ More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,

rsv@Romans:5:4 @ and endurance produces character, and character produces hope,

rsv@Romans:5:5 @ and hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit which has been given to us.

rsv@Romans:5:11 @ Not only so, but we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received our reconciliation.

rsv@Romans:5:21 @ so that, as sin reigned in death, grace also might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

rsv@Romans:6:4 @ We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.

rsv@Romans:6:5 @ For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we shall certainly be united with him in a resurrection like his.

rsv@Romans:6:6 @ We know that our old self was crucified with him so that the sinful body might be destroyed, and we might no longer be enslaved to sin.

rsv@Romans:6:11 @ So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Romans:6:12 @ Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal bodies, to make you obey their passions.

rsv@Romans:6:13 @ Do not yield your members to sin as instruments of wickedness, but yield yourselves to God as men who have been brought from death to life, and your members to God as instruments of righteousness.

rsv@Romans:6:16 @ Do you not know that if you yield yourselves to any one as obedient slaves, you are slaves of the one whom you obey, either of sin, which leads to death, or of obedience, which leads to righteousness?

rsv@Romans:6:19 @ I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once yielded your members to impurity and to greater and greater iniquity, so now yield your members to righteousness for sanctification.

rsv@Romans:6:21 @ But then what return did you get from the things of which you are now ashamed? The end of those things is death.

rsv@Romans:6:22 @ But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the return you get is sanctification and its end, eternal life.

rsv@Romans:6:23 @ For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@Romans:7:1 @ Do you not know, brethren--for I am speaking to those who know the law--that the law is binding on a person only during his life?

rsv@Romans:7:5 @ While we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death.

rsv@Romans:7:13 @ Did that which is good, then, bring death to me? By no means! It was sin, working death in me through what is good, in order that sin might be shown to be sin, and through the commandment might become sinful beyond measure.

rsv@Romans:7:25 @ Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I of myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.

rsv@Romans:8:10 @ But if Christ is in you, although your bodies are dead because of sin, your spirits are alive because of righteousness.

rsv@Romans:8:11 @ If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit which dwells in you.

rsv@Romans:8:16 @ it is the Spirit himself bearing witness with our spirit that we are children of God,

rsv@Romans:8:23 @ and not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

rsv@Romans:8:26 @ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with sighs too deep for words.

rsv@Romans:8:28 @ We know that in everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.

rsv@Romans:8:38 @ For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers,

rsv@Romans:8:39 @ nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@Romans:9:3 @ For I could wish that I myself were accursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen by race.

rsv@Romans:9:7 @ and not all are children of Abraham because they are his descendants; but "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

rsv@Romans:9:9 @ For this is what the promise said, "About this time I will return and Sarah shall have a son."

rsv@Romans:9:10 @ And not only so, but also when Rebecca had conceived children by one man, our forefather Isaac,

rsv@Romans:9:11 @ though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad, in order that God's purpose of election might continue, not because of works but because of his call,

rsv@Romans:9:17 @ For the scripture says to Pharaoh, "I have raised you up for the very purpose of showing my power in you, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth."

rsv@Romans:9:22 @ What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience the vessels of wrath made for destruction,

rsv@Romans:9:30 @ What shall we say, then? That Gentiles who did not pursue righteousness have attained it, that is, righteousness through faith;

rsv@Romans:9:31 @ but that Israel who pursued the righteousness which is based on law did not succeed in fulfilling that law.

rsv@Romans:9:32 @ Why? Because they did not pursue it through faith, but as if it were based on works. They have stumbled over the stumbling stone,

rsv@Romans:10:6 @ But the righteousness based on faith says, Do not say in your heart, "Who will ascend into heaven?" (that is, to bring Christ down)

rsv@Romans:10:8 @ But what does it say? The word is near you, on your lips and in your heart (that is, the word of faith which we preach);

rsv@Romans:10:9 @ because, if you confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

rsv@Romans:10:11 @ The scripture says, "No one who believes in him will be put to shame."

rsv@Romans:11:2 @ God has not rejected his people whom he foreknew. Do you not know what the scripture says of Eli'jah, how he pleads with God against Israel?

rsv@Romans:11:12 @ Now if their trespass means riches for the world, and if their failure means riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their full inclusion mean!

rsv@Romans:11:21 @ For if God did not spare the natural branches, neither will he spare you.

rsv@Romans:11:24 @ For if you have been cut from what is by nature a wild olive tree, and grafted, contrary to nature, into a cultivated olive tree, how much more will these natural branches be grafted back into their own olive tree.

rsv@Romans:11:25 @ Lest you be wise in your own conceits, I want you to understand this mystery, brethren: a hardening has come upon part of Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles come in,

rsv@Romans:11:28 @ As regards the gospel they are enemies of God, for your sake; but as regards election they are beloved for the sake of their forefathers.

rsv@Romans:12:1 @ I appeal to you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

rsv@Romans:12:2 @ Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

rsv@Romans:12:3 @ For by the grace given to me I bid every one among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith which God has assigned him.

rsv@Romans:12:6 @ Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;

rsv@Romans:12:7 @ if service, in our serving; he who teaches, in his teaching;

rsv@Romans:12:12 @ Rejoice in your hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.

rsv@Romans:12:14 @ Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them.

rsv@Romans:12:19 @ Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God; for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord."

rsv@Romans:12:20 @ No, "if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head."

rsv@Romans:13:2 @ Therefore he who resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment.

rsv@Romans:13:4 @ for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain; he is the servant of God to execute his wrath on the wrongdoer.

rsv@Romans:13:9 @ The commandments, "You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not covet," and any other commandment, are summed up in this sentence, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

rsv@Romans:13:11 @ Besides this you know what hour it is, how it is full time now for you to wake from sleep. For salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed;

rsv@Romans:13:13 @ let us conduct ourselves becomingly as in the day, not in reveling and drunkenness, not in debauchery and licentiousness, not in quarreling and jealousy.

rsv@Romans:14:10 @ Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God;

rsv@Romans:14:15 @ If your brother is being injured by what you eat, you are no longer walking in love. Do not let what you eat cause the ruin of one for whom Christ died.

rsv@Romans:14:16 @ So do not let your good be spoken of as evil.

rsv@Romans:14:19 @ Let us then pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding.

rsv@Romans:14:21 @ it is right not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that makes your brother stumble.

rsv@Romans:14:22 @ The faith that you have, keep between yourself and God; happy is he who has no reason to judge himself for what he approves.

rsv@Romans:15:1 @ We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves;

rsv@Romans:15:4 @ For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that by steadfastness and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.

rsv@Romans:15:5 @ May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus,

rsv@Romans:15:6 @ that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Romans:15:12 @ and further Isaiah says, "The root of Jesse shall come, he who rises to rule the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles hope."

rsv@Romans:15:14 @ I myself am satisfied about you, my brethren, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and able to instruct one another.

rsv@Romans:15:18 @ For I will not venture to speak of anything except what Christ has wrought through me to win obedience from the Gentiles, by word and deed,

rsv@Romans:15:24 @ I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain, and to be sped on my journey there by you, once I have enjoyed your company for a little.

rsv@1Corinthians:4:17 @ Therefore I sent to you Timothy, my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, to remind you of my ways in Christ, as I teach them everywhere in every church.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to mourn? Let him who has done this be removed from among you.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ in the name of the Lord Jesus on the man who has done such a thing. When you are assembled, and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus,

rsv@1Corinthians:5:6 @ Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?

rsv@1Corinthians:5:7 @ Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our paschal lamb, has been sacrificed.

rsv@1Corinthians:5:12 @ For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:4 @ If then you have such cases, why do you lay them before those who are least esteemed by the church?

rsv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no man among you wise enough to decide between members of the brotherhood,

rsv@1Corinthians:6:8 @ But you yourselves wrong and defraud, and that even your own brethren.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

rsv@1Corinthians:6:15 @ Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I therefore take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never!

rsv@1Corinthians:6:19 @ Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God? You are not your own;

rsv@1Corinthians:6:20 @ you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:5 @ Do not refuse one another except perhaps by agreement for a season, that you may devote yourselves to prayer; but then come together again, lest Satan tempt you through lack of self-control.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:14 @ For the unbelieving husband is consecrated through his wife, and the unbelieving wife is consecrated through her husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean, but as it is they are holy.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:16 @ Wife, how do you know whether you will save your husband? Husband, how do you know whether you will save your wife?

rsv@1Corinthians:7:17 @ Only, let every one lead the life which the Lord has assigned to him, and in which God has called him. This is my rule in all the churches.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:21 @ Were you a slave when called? Never mind. But if you can gain your freedom, avail yourself of the opportunity.

rsv@1Corinthians:7:30 @ and those who mourn as though they were not mourning, and those who rejoice as though they were not rejoicing, and those who buy as though they had no goods,

rsv@1Corinthians:7:35 @ I say this for your own benefit, not to lay any restraint upon you, but to promote good order and to secure your undivided devotion to the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:9 @ Only take care lest this liberty of yours somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if any one sees you, a man of knowledge, at table in an idol's temple, might he not be encouraged, if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols?

rsv@1Corinthians:8:11 @ And so by your knowledge this weak man is destroyed, the brother for whom Christ died.

rsv@1Corinthians:8:12 @ Thus, sinning against your brethren and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:1 @ Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are not you my workmanship in the Lord?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:4 @ Do we not have the right to our food and drink?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:10 @ Does he not speak entirely for our sake? It was written for our sake, because the plowman should plow in hope and the thresher thresh in hope of a share in the crop.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:11 @ If we have sown spiritual good among you, is it too much if we reap your material benefits?

rsv@1Corinthians:9:12 @ If others share this rightful claim upon you, do not we still more? Nevertheless, we have not made use of this right, but we endure anything rather than put an obstacle in the way of the gospel of Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:9:15 @ But I have made no use of any of these rights, nor am I writing this to secure any such provision. For I would rather die than have any one deprive me of my ground for boasting.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:1 @ I want you to know, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea,

rsv@1Corinthians:10:3 @ and all ate the same supernatural food

rsv@1Corinthians:10:4 @ and all drank the same supernatural drink. For they drank from the supernatural Rock which followed them, and the Rock was Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now these things happened to them as a warning, but they were written down for our instruction, upon whom the end of the ages has come.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:13 @ No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your strength, but with the temptation will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:15 @ I speak as to sensible men; judge for yourselves what I say.

rsv@1Corinthians:10:29 @ I mean his conscience, not yours--do not eat it.) For why should my liberty be determined by another man's scruples?

rsv@1Corinthians:10:32 @ Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge for yourselves; is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

rsv@1Corinthians:11:14 @ Does not nature itself teach you that for a man to wear long hair is degrading to him,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:16 @ If any one is disposed to be contentious, we recognize no other practice, nor do the churches of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For, in the first place, when you assemble as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it,

rsv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in this? No, I will not.

rsv@1Corinthians:11:31 @ But if we judged ourselves truly, we should not be judged.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:3 @ Therefore I want you to understand that no one speaking by the Spirit of God ever says "Jesus be cursed!" and no one can say "Jesus is Lord" except by the Holy Spirit.

rsv@1Corinthians:12:23 @ and those parts of the body which we think less honorable we invest with the greater honor, and our unpresentable parts are treated with greater modesty,

rsv@1Corinthians:12:24 @ which our more presentable parts do not require. But God has so composed the body, giving the greater honor to the inferior part,

rsv@1Corinthians:12:28 @ And God has appointed in the church first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, then healers, helpers, administrators, speakers in various kinds of tongues.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:3 @ If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:7 @ Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

rsv@1Corinthians:13:9 @ For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect;

rsv@1Corinthians:14:1 @ Make love your aim, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:3 @ On the other hand, he who prophesies speaks to men for their upbuilding and encouragement and consolation.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:4 @ He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:5 @ Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. He who prophesies is greater than he who speaks in tongues, unless some one interprets, so that the church may be edified.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:9 @ So with yourselves; if you in a tongue utter speech that is not intelligible, how will any one know what is said? For you will be speaking into the air.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:12 @ So with yourselves; since you are eager for manifestations of the Spirit, strive to excel in building up the church.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how can any one in the position of an outsider say the "Amen" to your thanksgiving when he does not know what you are saying?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:19 @ nevertheless, in church I would rather speak five words with my mind, in order to instruct others, than ten thousand words in a tongue.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:20 @ Brethren, do not be children in your thinking; be babes in evil, but in thinking be mature.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:23 @ If, therefore, the whole church assembles and all speak in tongues, and outsiders or unbelievers enter, will they not say that you are mad?

rsv@1Corinthians:14:27 @ If any speak in a tongue, let there be only two or at most three, and each in turn; and let one interpret.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:28 @ But if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silence in church and speak to himself and to God.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:31 @ For you can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn and all be encouraged;

rsv@1Corinthians:14:33 @ For God is not a God of confusion but of peace. As in all the churches of the saints,

rsv@1Corinthians:14:34 @ the women should keep silence in the churches. For they are not permitted to speak, but should be subordinate, as even the law says.

rsv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ If there is anything they desire to know, let them ask their husbands at home. For it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:3 @ For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:4 @ that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures,

rsv@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles, unfit to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached as raised from the dead, how can some of you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:13 @ But if there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised;

rsv@1Corinthians:15:14 @ if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is in vain and your faith is in vain.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:17 @ If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:30 @ Why am I in peril every hour?

rsv@1Corinthians:15:31 @ I protest, brethren, by my pride in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die every day!

rsv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Come to your right mind, and sin no more. For some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:42 @ So is it with the resurrection of the dead. What is sown is perishable, what is raised is imperishable.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:53 @ For this perishable nature must put on the imperishable, and this mortal nature must put on immortality.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:57 @ But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Corinthians:15:58 @ Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:1 @ Now concerning the contribution for the saints: as I directed the churches of Galatia, so you also are to do.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:3 @ And when I arrive, I will send those whom you accredit by letter to carry your gift to Jerusalem.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:6 @ and perhaps I will stay with you or even spend the winter, so that you may speed me on my journey, wherever I go.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ So let no one despise him. Speed him on his way in peace, that he may return to me; for I am expecting him with the brethren.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:12 @ As for our brother Apol'los, I strongly urged him to visit you with the other brethren, but it was not at all his will to come now. He will come when he has opportunity.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:13 @ Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:16 @ I urge you to be subject to such men and to every fellow worker and laborer.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I rejoice at the coming of Steph'anas and Fortuna'tus and Acha'icus, because they have made up for your absence;

rsv@1Corinthians:16:18 @ for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. Give recognition to such men.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:19 @ The churches of Asia send greetings. Aq'uila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord.

rsv@1Corinthians:16:22 @ If any one has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, come!

rsv@2Corinthians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus 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 the whole of Acha'ia:

rsv@2Corinthians:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

rsv@2Corinthians:1:4 @ who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ If we are afflicted, it is for your comfort and salvation; and if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which you experience when you patiently endure the same sufferings that we suffer.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:7 @ Our hope for you is unshaken; for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:9 @ Why, we felt that we had received the sentence of death; but that was to make us rely not on ourselves but on God who raises the dead;

rsv@2Corinthians:1:10 @ he delivered us from so deadly a peril, and he will deliver us; on him we have set our hope that he will deliver us again.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:11 @ You also must help us by prayer, so that many will give thanks on our behalf for the blessing granted us in answer to many prayers.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:12 @ For our boast is this, the testimony of our conscience that we have behaved in the world, and still more toward you, with holiness and godly sincerity, not by earthly wisdom but by the grace of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:15 @ Because I was sure of this, I wanted to come to you first, so that you might have a double pleasure;

rsv@2Corinthians:1:18 @ As surely as God is faithful, our word to you has not been Yes and No.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:22 @ he has put his seal upon us and given us his Spirit in our hearts as a guarantee.

rsv@2Corinthians:1:24 @ Not that we lord it over your faith; we work with you for your joy, for you stand firm in your faith.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote as I did, so that when I came I might not suffer pain from those who should have made me rejoice, for I felt sure of all of you, that my joy would be the joy of you all.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:5 @ But if any one has caused pain, he has caused it not to me, but in some measure--not to put it too severely-- to you all.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:7 @ so you should rather turn to forgive and comfort him, or he may be overwhelmed by excessive sorrow.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:8 @ So I beg you to reaffirm your love for him.

rsv@2Corinthians:2:10 @ Any one whom you forgive, I also forgive. What I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has been for your sake in the presence of Christ,

rsv@2Corinthians:3:1 @ Are we beginning to commend ourselves again? Or do we need, as some do, letters of recommendation to you, or from you?

rsv@2Corinthians:3:2 @ You yourselves are our letter of recommendation, written on your hearts, to be known and read by all men;

rsv@2Corinthians:3:5 @ Not that we are competent of ourselves to claim anything as coming from us; our competence is from God,

rsv@2Corinthians:3:10 @ Indeed, in this case, what once had splendor has come to have no splendor at all, because of the splendor that surpasses it.

rsv@2Corinthians:3:16 @ but when a man turns to the Lord the veil is removed.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ We have renounced disgraceful, underhanded ways; we refuse to practice cunning or to tamper with God's word, but by the open statement of the truth we would commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:3 @ And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled only to those who are perishing.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:5 @ For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:6 @ For it is the God who said, "Let light shine out of darkness," who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:7 @ But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, to show that the transcendent power belongs to God and not to us.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:10 @ always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:11 @ For while we live we are always being given up to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus may be manifested in our mortal flesh.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:15 @ For it is all for your sake, so that as grace extends to more and more people it may increase thanksgiving, to the glory of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:4:16 @ So we do not lose heart. Though our outer nature is wasting away, our inner nature is being renewed every day.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:2 @ Here indeed we groan, and long to put on our heavenly dwelling,

rsv@2Corinthians:5:4 @ For while we are still in this tent, we sigh with anxiety; not that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:6 @ So we are always of good courage; we know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord,

rsv@2Corinthians:5:8 @ We are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:9 @ So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:11 @ Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade men; but what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:12 @ We are not commending ourselves to you again but giving you cause to be proud of us, so that you may be able to answer those who pride themselves on a man's position and not on his heart.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:13 @ For if we are beside ourselves, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.

rsv@2Corinthians:5:21 @ For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:3 @ We put no obstacle in any one's way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:4 @ but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: through great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:6 @ by purity, knowledge, forbearance, kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine love,

rsv@2Corinthians:6:11 @ Our mouth is open to you, Corinthians; our heart is wide.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:12 @ You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted in your own affections.

rsv@2Corinthians:6:13 @ In return--I speak as to children--widen your hearts also.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:1 @ Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, and make holiness perfect in the fear of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:2 @ Open your hearts to us; we have wronged no one, we have corrupted no one, we have taken advantage of no one.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:3 @ I do not say this to condemn you, for I said before that you are in our hearts, to die together and to live together.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ I have great confidence in you; I have great pride in you; I am filled with comfort. With all our affliction, I am overjoyed.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For even when we came into Macedo'nia, our bodies had no rest but we were afflicted at every turn--fighting without and fear within.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:7 @ and not only by his coming but also by the comfort with which he was comforted in you, as he told us of your longing, your mourning, your zeal for me, so that I rejoiced still more.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:11 @ For see what earnestness this godly grief has produced in you, what eagerness to clear yourselves, what indignation, what alarm, what longing, what zeal, what punishment! At every point you have proved yourselves guiltless in the matter.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:12 @ So although I wrote to you, it was not on account of the one who did the wrong, nor on account of the one who suffered the wrong, but in order that your zeal for us might be revealed to you in the sight of God.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:13 @ Therefore we are comforted. And besides our own comfort we rejoiced still more at the joy of Titus, because his mind has been set at rest by you all.

rsv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if I have expressed to him some pride in you, I was not put to shame; but just as everything we said to you was true, so our boasting before Titus has proved true.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:1 @ We want you to know, brethren, about the grace of God which has been shown in the churches of Macedo'nia,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:6 @ Accordingly we have urged Titus that as he had already made a beginning, he should also complete among you this gracious work.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:7 @ Now as you excel in everything--in faith, in utterance, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in your love for us--see that you excel in this gracious work also.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I say this not as a command, but to prove by the earnestness of others that your love also is genuine.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that by his poverty you might become rich.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:11 @ so that your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your completing it out of what you have.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:13 @ I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened,

rsv@2Corinthians:8:14 @ but that as a matter of equality your abundance at the present time should supply their want, so that their abundance may supply your want, that there may be equality.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:17 @ For he not only accepted our appeal, but being himself very earnest he is going to you of his own accord.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:18 @ With him we are sending the brother who is famous among all the churches for his preaching of the gospel;

rsv@2Corinthians:8:19 @ and not only that, but he has been appointed by the churches to travel with us in this gracious work which we are carrying on, for the glory of the Lord and to show our good will.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:22 @ And with them we are sending our brother whom we have often tested and found earnest in many matters, but who is now more earnest than ever because of his great confidence in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:23 @ As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker in your service; and as for our brethren, they are messengers of the churches, the glory of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:8:24 @ So give proof, before the churches, of your love and of our boasting about you to these men.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:2 @ for I know your readiness, of which I boast about you to the people of Macedo'nia, saying that Acha'ia has been ready since last year; and your zeal has stirred up most of them.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:3 @ But I am sending the brethren so that our boasting about you may not prove vain in this case, so that you may be ready, as I said you would be;

rsv@2Corinthians:9:5 @ So I thought it necessary to urge the brethren to go on to you before me, and arrange in advance for this gift you have promised, so that it may be ready not as an exaction but as a willing gift.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:9 @ As it is written, "He scatters abroad, he gives to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever."

rsv@2Corinthians:9:10 @ He who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your resources and increase the harvest of your righteousness.

rsv@2Corinthians:9:13 @ Under the test of this service, you will glorify God by your obedience in acknowledging the gospel of Christ, and by the generosity of your contribution for them and for all others;

rsv@2Corinthians:9:14 @ while they long for you and pray for you, because of the surpassing grace of God in you.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:4 @ for the weapons of our warfare are not worldly but have divine power to destroy strongholds.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:6 @ being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:7 @ Look at what is before your eyes. If any one is confident that he is Christ's, let him remind himself that as he is Christ's, so are we.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I boast a little too much of our authority, which the Lord gave for building you up and not for destroying you, I shall not be put to shame.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ Not that we venture to class or compare ourselves with some of those who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by one another, and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we are not overextending ourselves, as though we did not reach you; we were the first to come all the way to you with the gospel of Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:10:15 @ We do not boast beyond limit, in other men's labors; but our hope is that as your faith increases, our field among you may be greatly enlarged,

rsv@2Corinthians:11:2 @ I feel a divine jealousy for you, for I betrothed you to Christ to present you as a pure bride to her one husband.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:3 @ But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:8 @ I robbed other churches by accepting support from them in order to serve you.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was with you and was in want, I did not burden any one, for my needs were supplied by the brethren who came from Macedo'nia. So I refrained and will refrain from burdening you in any way.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:19 @ For you gladly bear with fools, being wise yourselves!

rsv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from robbers, danger from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brethren;

rsv@2Corinthians:11:27 @ in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure.

rsv@2Corinthians:11:28 @ And, apart from other things, there is the daily pressure upon me of my anxiety for all the churches.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:2 @ I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven--whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:13 @ For in what were you less favored than the rest of the churches, except that I myself did not burden you? Forgive me this wrong!

rsv@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Here for the third time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be a burden, for I seek not what is yours but you; for children ought not to lay up for their parents, but parents for their children.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:15 @ I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you the more, am I to be loved the less?

rsv@2Corinthians:12:16 @ But granting that I myself did not burden you, I was crafty, you say, and got the better of you by guile.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urged Titus to go, and sent the brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not act in the same spirit? Did we not take the same steps?

rsv@2Corinthians:12:19 @ Have you been thinking all along that we have been defending ourselves before you? It is in the sight of God that we have been speaking in Christ, and all for your upbuilding, beloved.

rsv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ I fear that when I come again my God may humble me before you, and I may have to mourn over many of those who sinned before and have not repented of the impurity, immorality, and licentiousness which they have practiced.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves, to see whether you are holding to your faith. Test yourselves. Do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you fail to meet the test!

rsv@2Corinthians:13:9 @ For we are glad when we are weak and you are strong. What we pray for is your improvement.

rsv@2Corinthians:13:11 @ Finally, brethren, farewell. Mend your ways, heed my appeal, agree with one another, live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.

rsv@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brethren who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:

rsv@Galatians:1:3 @ Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

rsv@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father;

rsv@Galatians:1:6 @ I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and turning to a different gospel--

rsv@Galatians:1:8 @ But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to that which we preached to you, let him be accursed.

rsv@Galatians:1:9 @ As we have said before, so now I say again, If any one is preaching to you a gospel contrary to that which you received, let him be accursed.

rsv@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it;

rsv@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned to Damascus.

rsv@Galatians:1:22 @ And I was still not known by sight to the churches of Christ in Judea;

rsv@Galatians:2:1 @ Then after fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along with me.

rsv@Galatians:2:4 @ But because of false brethren secretly brought in, who slipped in to spy out our freedom which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage--

rsv@Galatians:2:15 @ We ourselves, who are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners,

rsv@Galatians:2:17 @ But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we ourselves were found to be sinners, is Christ then an agent of sin? Certainly not!

rsv@Galatians:2:21 @ I do not nullify the grace of God; for if justification were through the law, then Christ died to no purpose.

rsv@Galatians:3:8 @ And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand to Abraham, saying, "In you shall all the nations be blessed."

rsv@Galatians:3:10 @ For all who rely on works of the law are under a curse; for it is written, "Cursed be every one who does not abide by all things written in the book of the law, and do them."

rsv@Galatians:3:13 @ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us--for it is written, "Cursed be every one who hangs on a tree"--

rsv@Galatians:3:16 @ Now the promises were made to Abraham and to his offspring. It does not say, "And to offsprings," referring to many; but, referring to one, "And to your offspring," which is Christ.

rsv@Galatians:3:17 @ This is what I mean: the law, which came four hundred and thirty years afterward, does not annul a covenant previously ratified by God, so as to make the promise void.

rsv@Galatians:3:22 @ But the scripture consigned all things to sin, that what was promised to faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe.

rsv@Galatians:3:24 @ So that the law was our custodian until Christ came, that we might be justified by faith.

rsv@Galatians:4:6 @ And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, "Abba! Father!"

rsv@Galatians:4:8 @ Formerly, when you did not know God, you were in bondage to beings that by nature are no gods;

rsv@Galatians:4:9 @ but now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God, how can you turn back again to the weak and beggarly elemental spirits, whose slaves you want to be once more?

rsv@Galatians:4:15 @ What has become of the satisfaction you felt? For I bear you witness that, if possible, you would have plucked out your eyes and given them to me.

rsv@Galatians:4:16 @ Have I then become your enemy by telling you the truth?

rsv@Galatians:4:17 @ They make much of you, but for no good purpose; they want to shut you out, that you may make much of them.

rsv@Galatians:4:18 @ For a good purpose it is always good to be made much of, and not only when I am present with you.

rsv@Galatians:4:26 @ But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.

rsv@Galatians:4:30 @ But what does the scripture say? "Cast out the slave and her son; for the son of the slave shall not inherit with the son of the free woman."

rsv@Galatians:5:13 @ For you were called to freedom, brethren; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love be servants of one another.

rsv@Galatians:5:14 @ For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

rsv@Galatians:5:15 @ But if you bite and devour one another take heed that you are not consumed by one another.

rsv@Galatians:5:19 @ Now the works of the flesh are plain: fornication, impurity, licentiousness,

rsv@Galatians:6:1 @ Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Look to yourself, lest you too be tempted.

rsv@Galatians:6:2 @ Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

rsv@Galatians:6:13 @ For even those who receive circumcision do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may glory in your flesh.

rsv@Galatians:6:14 @ But far be it from me to glory except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

rsv@Galatians:6:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brethren. Amen.

rsv@Ephesians:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Ephesians:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places,

rsv@Ephesians:1:5 @ He destined us in love to be his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,

rsv@Ephesians:1:7 @ In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace

rsv@Ephesians:1:9 @ For he has made known to us in all wisdom and insight the mystery of his will, according to his purpose which he set forth in Christ

rsv@Ephesians:1:11 @ In him, according to the purpose of him who accomplishes all things according to the counsel of his will,

rsv@Ephesians:1:13 @ In him you also, who have heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and have believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,

rsv@Ephesians:1:14 @ which is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.

rsv@Ephesians:1:15 @ For this reason, because I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:1:17 @ that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him,

rsv@Ephesians:1:18 @ having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints,

rsv@Ephesians:1:19 @ and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power in us who believe, according to the working of his great might

rsv@Ephesians:1:22 @ and he has put all things under his feet and has made him the head over all things for the church,

rsv@Ephesians:2:2 @ in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience.

rsv@Ephesians:2:3 @ Among these we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, following the desires of body and mind, and so we were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.

rsv@Ephesians:2:5 @ even when we were dead through our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved),

rsv@Ephesians:2:7 @ that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Ephesians:2:8 @ For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing, it is the gift of God--

rsv@Ephesians:2:14 @ For he is our peace, who has made us both one, and has broken down the dividing wall of hostility,

rsv@Ephesians:2:19 @ So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God,

rsv@Ephesians:2:21 @ in whom the whole structure is joined together and grows into a holy temple in the Lord;

rsv@Ephesians:3:10 @ that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places.

rsv@Ephesians:3:11 @ This was according to the eternal purpose which he has realized in Christ Jesus our Lord,

rsv@Ephesians:3:12 @ in whom we have boldness and confidence of access through our faith in him.

rsv@Ephesians:3:13 @ So I ask you not to lose heart over what I am suffering for you, which is your glory.

rsv@Ephesians:3:17 @ and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

rsv@Ephesians:3:19 @ and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fulness of God.

rsv@Ephesians:3:21 @ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Ephesians:4:4 @ There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call,

rsv@Ephesians:4:7 @ But grace was given to each of us according to the measure of Christ's gift.

rsv@Ephesians:4:13 @ until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ;

rsv@Ephesians:4:22 @ Put off your old nature which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful lusts,

rsv@Ephesians:4:23 @ and be renewed in the spirit of your minds,

rsv@Ephesians:4:24 @ and put on the new nature, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.

rsv@Ephesians:4:26 @ Be angry but do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,

rsv@Ephesians:4:29 @ Let no evil talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for edifying, as fits the occasion, that it may impart grace to those who hear.

rsv@Ephesians:5:3 @ But fornication and all impurity or covetousness must not even be named among you, as is fitting among saints.

rsv@Ephesians:5:5 @ Be sure of this, that no fornicator or impure man, or one who is covetous (that is, an idolater), has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

rsv@Ephesians:5:19 @ addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with all your heart,

rsv@Ephesians:5:20 @ always and for everything giving thanks in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ to God the Father.

rsv@Ephesians:5:22 @ Wives, be subject to your husbands, as to the Lord.

rsv@Ephesians:5:23 @ For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior.

rsv@Ephesians:5:24 @ As the church is subject to Christ, so let wives also be subject in everything to their husbands.

rsv@Ephesians:5:25 @ Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,

rsv@Ephesians:5:27 @ that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.

rsv@Ephesians:5:29 @ For no man ever hates his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, as Christ does the church,

rsv@Ephesians:5:32 @ This mystery is a profound one, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church;

rsv@Ephesians:6:1 @ Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right.

rsv@Ephesians:6:2 @ "Honor your father and mother" (this is the first commandment with a promise),

rsv@Ephesians:6:4 @ Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

rsv@Ephesians:6:5 @ Slaves, be obedient to those who are your earthly masters, with fear and trembling, in singleness of heart, as to Christ;

rsv@Ephesians:6:9 @ Masters, do the same to them, and forbear threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him.

rsv@Ephesians:6:14 @ Stand therefore, having girded your loins with truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

rsv@Ephesians:6:15 @ and having shod your feet with the equipment of the gospel of peace;

rsv@Ephesians:6:22 @ I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are, and that he may encourage your hearts.

rsv@Ephesians:6:24 @ Grace be with all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with love undying.

rsv@Philippians:1:2 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Philippians:1:5 @ thankful for your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now.

rsv@Philippians:1:6 @ And I am sure that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

rsv@Philippians:1:9 @ And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment,

rsv@Philippians:1:10 @ so that you may approve what is excellent, and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,

rsv@Philippians:1:19 @ Yes, and I shall rejoice. For I know that through your prayers and the help of the Spirit of Jesus Christ this will turn out for my deliverance,

rsv@Philippians:1:20 @ as it is my eager expectation and hope that I shall not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death.

rsv@Philippians:1:24 @ But to remain in the flesh is more necessary on your account.

rsv@Philippians:1:25 @ Convinced of this, I know that I shall remain and continue with you all, for your progress and joy in the faith,

rsv@Philippians:1:27 @ Only let your manner of life be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of you that you stand firm in one spirit, with one mind striving side by side for the faith of the gospel,

rsv@Philippians:1:28 @ and not frightened in anything by your opponents. This is a clear omen to them of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God.

rsv@Philippians:2:1 @ So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any incentive of love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy,

rsv@Philippians:2:3 @ Do nothing from selfishness or conceit, but in humility count others better than yourselves.

rsv@Philippians:2:5 @ Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,

rsv@Philippians:2:12 @ Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, so now, not only as in my presence but much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;

rsv@Philippians:2:13 @ for God is at work in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.

rsv@Philippians:2:17 @ Even if I am to be poured as a libation upon the sacrificial offering of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all.

rsv@Philippians:2:20 @ I have no one like him, who will be genuinely anxious for your welfare.

rsv@Philippians:2:25 @ I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphrodi'tus my brother and fellow worker and fellow soldier, and your messenger and minister to my need,

rsv@Philippians:2:30 @ for he nearly died for the work of Christ, risking his life to complete your service to me.

rsv@Philippians:3:6 @ as to zeal a persecutor of the church, as to righteousness under the law blameless.

rsv@Philippians:3:8 @ Indeed I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as refuse, in order that I may gain Christ

rsv@Philippians:3:10 @ that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death,

rsv@Philippians:3:11 @ that if possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead.

rsv@Philippians:3:15 @ Let those of us who are mature be thus minded; and if in anything you are otherwise minded, God will reveal that also to you.

rsv@Philippians:3:20 @ But our commonwealth is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ,

rsv@Philippians:3:21 @ who will change our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power which enables him even to subject all things to himself.

rsv@Philippians:4:5 @ Let all men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand.

rsv@Philippians:4:6 @ Have no anxiety about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

rsv@Philippians:4:7 @ And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:4:8 @ Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

rsv@Philippians:4:10 @ I rejoice in the Lord greatly that now at length you have revived your concern for me; you were indeed concerned for me, but you had no opportunity.

rsv@Philippians:4:15 @ And you Philippians yourselves know that in the beginning of the gospel, when I left Macedo'nia, no church entered into partnership with me in giving and receiving except you only;

rsv@Philippians:4:17 @ Not that I seek the gift; but I seek the fruit which increases to your credit.

rsv@Philippians:4:19 @ And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

rsv@Philippians:4:20 @ To our God and Father be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

rsv@Philippians:4:23 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

rsv@Colossians:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother,

rsv@Colossians:1:2 @ To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ at Colos'sae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.

rsv@Colossians:1:3 @ We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you,

rsv@Colossians:1:4 @ because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love which you have for all the saints,

rsv@Colossians:1:6 @ which has come to you, as indeed in the whole world it is bearing fruit and growing--so among yourselves, from the day you heard and understood the grace of God in truth,

rsv@Colossians:1:7 @ as you learned it from Ep'aphras our beloved fellow servant. He is a faithful minister of Christ on our behalf

rsv@Colossians:1:8 @ and has made known to us your love in the Spirit.

rsv@Colossians:1:11 @ May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy,

rsv@Colossians:1:18 @ He is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the first-born from the dead, that in everything he might be pre-eminent.

rsv@Colossians:1:23 @ provided that you continue in the faith, stable and steadfast, not shifting from the hope of the gospel which you heard, which has been preached to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, became a minister.

rsv@Colossians:1:24 @ Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I complete what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church,

rsv@Colossians:1:28 @ Him we proclaim, warning every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man mature in Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:2 @ that their hearts may be encouraged as they are knit together in love, to have all the riches of assured understanding and the knowledge of God's mystery, of Christ,

rsv@Colossians:2:3 @ in whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

rsv@Colossians:2:5 @ For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the firmness of your faith in Christ.

rsv@Colossians:2:12 @ and you were buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.

rsv@Colossians:2:13 @ And you, who were dead in trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,

rsv@Colossians:2:19 @ and not holding fast to the Head, from whom the whole body, nourished and knit together through its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.

rsv@Colossians:3:2 @ Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

rsv@Colossians:3:3 @ For you have died, and your life is hid with Christ in God.

rsv@Colossians:3:4 @ When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

rsv@Colossians:3:5 @ Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: fornication, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

rsv@Colossians:3:8 @ But now put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and foul talk from your mouth.

rsv@Colossians:3:9 @ Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old nature with its practices

rsv@Colossians:3:10 @ and have put on the new nature, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

rsv@Colossians:3:15 @ And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.

rsv@Colossians:3:16 @ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teach and admonish one another in all wisdom, and sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

rsv@Colossians:3:18 @ Wives, be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:19 @ Husbands, love your wives, and do not be harsh with them.

rsv@Colossians:3:20 @ Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:21 @ Fathers, do not provoke your children, lest they become discouraged.

rsv@Colossians:3:22 @ Slaves, obey in everything those who are your earthly masters, not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but in singleness of heart, fearing the Lord.

rsv@Colossians:3:23 @ Whatever your task, work heartily, as serving the Lord and not men,

rsv@Colossians:3:24 @ knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward; you are serving the Lord Christ.

rsv@Colossians:4:1 @ Masters, treat your slaves justly and fairly, knowing that you also have a Master in heaven.

rsv@Colossians:4:5 @ Conduct yourselves wisely toward outsiders, making the most of the time.

rsv@Colossians:4:6 @ Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer every one.

rsv@Colossians:4:8 @ I have sent him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are and that he may encourage your hearts,

rsv@Colossians:4:9 @ and with him Ones'imus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of yourselves. They will tell you of everything that has taken place here.

rsv@Colossians:4:12 @ Ep'aphras, who is one of yourselves, a servant of Christ Jesus, greets you, always remembering you earnestly in his prayers, that you may stand mature and fully assured in all the will of God.

rsv@Colossians:4:15 @ Give my greetings to the brethren at La-odice'a, and to Nympha and the church in her house.

rsv@Colossians:4:16 @ And when this letter has been read among you, have it read also in the church of the La-odice'ans; and see that you read also the letter from La-odice'a.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silva'nus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalo'nians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:2 @ We give thanks to God always for you all, constantly mentioning you in our prayers,

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:3 @ remembering before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:5 @ for our gospel came to you not only in word, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and with full conviction. You know what kind of men we proved to be among you for your sake.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:8 @ For not only has the word of the Lord sounded forth from you in Macedo'nia and Acha'ia, but your faith in God has gone forth everywhere, so that we need not say anything.

rsv@1Thessalonians:1:9 @ For they themselves report concerning us what a welcome we had among you, and how you turned to God from idols, to serve a living and true God,

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:1 @ For you yourselves know, brethren, that our visit to you was not in vain;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:2 @ but though we had already suffered and been shamefully treated at Philip'pi, as you know, we had courage in our God to declare to you the gospel of God in the face of great opposition.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our appeal does not spring from error or uncleanness, nor is it made with guile;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ but just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please men, but to please God who tests our hearts.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ But we were gentle among you, like a nurse taking care of her children.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So, being affectionately desirous of you, we were ready to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you had become very dear to us.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For you remember our labor and toil, brethren; we worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you, while we preached to you the gospel of God.

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ You are witnesses, and God also, how holy and righteous and blameless was our behavior to you believers;

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ for you know how, like a father with his children, we exhorted each one of you and encouraged you and charged you

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:14 @ For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus which are in Judea; for you suffered the same things from your own countrymen as they did from the Jews,

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:16 @ by hindering us from speaking to the Gentiles that they may be saved--so as always to fill up the measure of their sins. But God's wrath has come upon them at last!

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope or joy or crown of boasting before our Lord Jesus at his coming? Is it not you?

rsv@1Thessalonians:2:20 @ For you are our glory and joy.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ and we sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the gospel of Christ, to establish you in your faith and to exhort you,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ that no one be moved by these afflictions. You yourselves know that this is to be our lot.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this reason, when I could bear it no longer, I sent that I might know your faith, for fear that somehow the tempter had tempted you and that our labor would be in vain.

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:6 @ But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has brought us the good news of your faith and love and reported that you always remember us kindly and long to see us, as we long to see you--

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:7 @ for this reason, brethren, in all our distress and affliction we have been comforted about you through your faith;

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:9 @ For what thanksgiving can we render to God for you, for all the joy which we feel for your sake before our God,

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:10 @ praying earnestly night and day that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking in your faith?

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:11 @ Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you;

rsv@1Thessalonians:3:13 @ so that he may establish your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:3 @ For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from unchastity;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:9 @ But concerning love of the brethren you have no need to have any one write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love one another;

rsv@1Thessalonians:4:11 @ to aspire to live quietly, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we charged you;

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:2 @ For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:3 @ When people say, "There is peace and security," then sudden destruction will come upon them as travail comes upon a woman with child, and there will be no escape.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:4 @ But you are not in darkness, brethren, for that day to surprise you like a thief.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:9 @ For God has not destined us for wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:11 @ Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:13 @ and to esteem them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:14 @ And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the idlers, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:23 @ May the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:27 @ I adjure you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the brethren.

rsv@1Thessalonians:5:28 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:1 @ Paul, Silva'nus, and Timothy, To the church of the Thessalo'nians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:3 @ We are bound to give thanks to God always for you, brethren, as is fitting, because your faith is growing abundantly, and the love of every one of you for one another is increasing.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:4 @ Therefore we ourselves boast of you in the churches of God for your steadfastness and faith in all your persecutions and in the afflictions which you are enduring.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:8 @ inflicting vengeance upon those who do not know God and upon those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:10 @ when he comes on that day to be glorified in his saints, and to be marveled at in all who have believed, because our testimony to you was believed.

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:11 @ To this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his call, and may fulfil every good resolve and work of faith by his power,

rsv@2Thessalonians:1:12 @ so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you, and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:1 @ Now concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our assembling to meet him, we beg you, brethren,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:2 @ not to be quickly shaken in mind or excited, either by spirit or by word, or by letter purporting to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:12 @ so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:14 @ To this he called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:16 @ Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,

rsv@2Thessalonians:2:17 @ comfort your hearts and establish them in every good work and word.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:5 @ May the Lord direct your hearts to the love of God and to the steadfastness of Christ.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:6 @ Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you keep away from any brother who is living in idleness and not in accord with the tradition that you received from us.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:7 @ For you yourselves know how you ought to imitate us; we were not idle when we were with you,

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:8 @ we did not eat any one's bread without paying, but with toil and labor we worked night and day, that we might not burden any of you.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:9 @ It was not because we have not that right, but to give you in our conduct an example to imitate.

rsv@2Thessalonians:3:18 @ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.

rsv@1Timothy:1:1 @ Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope,

rsv@1Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@1Timothy:1:3 @ As I urged you when I was going to Macedonia, remain at Ephesus that you may charge certain persons not to teach any different doctrine,

rsv@1Timothy:1:5 @ whereas the aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and sincere faith.

rsv@1Timothy:1:9 @ understanding this, that the law is not laid down for the just but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers,

rsv@1Timothy:1:10 @ immoral persons, sodomites, kidnapers, liars, perjurers, and whatever else is contrary to sound doctrine,

rsv@1Timothy:1:12 @ I thank him who has given me strength for this, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he judged me faithful by appointing me to his service,

rsv@1Timothy:1:14 @ and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.

rsv@1Timothy:1:15 @ The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. And I am the foremost of sinners;

rsv@1Timothy:2:1 @ First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men,

rsv@1Timothy:2:3 @ This is good, and it is acceptable in the sight of God our Savior,

rsv@1Timothy:3:1 @ The saying is sure: If any one aspires to the office of bishop, he desires a noble task.

rsv@1Timothy:3:5 @ for if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how can he care for God's church?

rsv@1Timothy:3:15 @ if I am delayed, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth.

rsv@1Timothy:3:16 @ Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of our religion: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.

rsv@1Timothy:4:6 @ If you put these instructions before the brethren, you will be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the good doctrine which you have followed.

rsv@1Timothy:4:7 @ Have nothing to do with godless and silly myths. Train yourself in godliness;

rsv@1Timothy:4:9 @ The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance.

rsv@1Timothy:4:10 @ For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe.

rsv@1Timothy:4:12 @ Let no one despise your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

rsv@1Timothy:4:13 @ Till I come, attend to the public reading of scripture, to preaching, to teaching.

rsv@1Timothy:4:15 @ Practice these duties, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress.

rsv@1Timothy:4:16 @ Take heed to yourself and to your teaching; hold to that, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers.

rsv@1Timothy:5:2 @ older women like mothers, younger women like sisters, in all purity.

rsv@1Timothy:5:4 @ If a widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn their religious duty to their own family and make some return to their parents; for this is acceptable in the sight of God.

rsv@1Timothy:5:12 @ and so they incur condemnation for having violated their first pledge.

rsv@1Timothy:5:16 @ If any believing woman has relatives who are widows, let her assist them; let the church not be burdened, so that it may assist those who are real widows.

rsv@1Timothy:5:18 @ for the scripture says, "You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain," and, "The laborer deserves his wages."

rsv@1Timothy:5:22 @ Do not be hasty in the laying on of hands, nor participate in another man's sins; keep yourself pure.

rsv@1Timothy:5:23 @ No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.

rsv@1Timothy:6:2 @ Those who have believing masters must not be disrespectful on the ground that they are brethren; rather they must serve all the better since those who benefit by their service are believers and beloved. Teach and urge these duties.

rsv@1Timothy:6:3 @ If any one teaches otherwise and does not agree with the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ and the teaching which accords with godliness,

rsv@1Timothy:6:9 @ But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and hurtful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.

rsv@1Timothy:6:14 @ I charge you to keep the commandment unstained and free from reproach until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@1Timothy:6:17 @ As for the rich in this world, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on uncertain riches but on God who richly furnishes us with everything to enjoy.

rsv@1Timothy:6:19 @ thus laying up for themselves a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of the life which is life indeed.

rsv@2Timothy:1:2 @ To Timothy, my beloved child: Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.

rsv@2Timothy:1:4 @ As I remember your tears, I long night and day to see you, that I may be filled with joy.

rsv@2Timothy:1:5 @ I am reminded of your sincere faith, a faith that dwelt first in your grandmother Lo'is and your mother Eunice and now, I am sure, dwells in you.

rsv@2Timothy:1:8 @ Do not be ashamed then of testifying to our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel in the power of God,

rsv@2Timothy:1:9 @ who saved us and called us with a holy calling, not in virtue of our works but in virtue of his own purpose and the grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus ages ago,

rsv@2Timothy:1:10 @ and now has manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.

rsv@2Timothy:1:12 @ and therefore I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am sure that he is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me.

rsv@2Timothy:1:15 @ You are aware that all who are in Asia turned away from me, and among them Phy'gelus and Hermog'enes.

rsv@2Timothy:2:4 @ No soldier on service gets entangled in civilian pursuits, since his aim is to satisfy the one who enlisted him.

rsv@2Timothy:2:10 @ Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they also may obtain salvation in Christ Jesus with its eternal glory.

rsv@2Timothy:2:11 @ The saying is sure: If we have died with him, we shall also live with him;

rsv@2Timothy:2:12 @ if we endure, we shall also reign with him; if we deny him, he also will deny us;

rsv@2Timothy:2:15 @ Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.

rsv@2Timothy:2:18 @ who have swerved from the truth by holding that the resurrection is past already. They are upsetting the faith of some.

rsv@2Timothy:2:21 @ If any one purifies himself from what is ignoble, then he will be a vessel for noble use, consecrated and useful to the master of the house, ready for any good work.

rsv@2Timothy:2:22 @ So shun youthful passions and aim at righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call upon the Lord from a pure heart.

rsv@2Timothy:2:26 @ and they may escape from the snare of the devil, after being captured by him to do his will.

rsv@2Timothy:3:4 @ treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

rsv@2Timothy:3:6 @ For among them are those who make their way into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and swayed by various impulses,

rsv@2Timothy:3:11 @ my persecutions, my sufferings, what befell me at Antioch, at Ico'nium, and at Lystra, what persecutions I endured; yet from them all the Lord rescued me.

rsv@2Timothy:3:16 @ All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

rsv@2Timothy:4:2 @ preach the word, be urgent in season and out of season, convince, rebuke, and exhort, be unfailing in patience and in teaching.

rsv@2Timothy:4:3 @ For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own likings,

rsv@2Timothy:4:4 @ and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander into myths.

rsv@2Timothy:4:5 @ As for you, always be steady, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil your ministry.

rsv@2Timothy:4:6 @ For I am already on the point of being sacrificed; the time of my departure has come.

rsv@2Timothy:4:9 @ Do your best to come to me soon.

rsv@2Timothy:4:15 @ Beware of him yourself, for he strongly opposed our message.

rsv@2Timothy:4:21 @ Do your best to come before winter. Eubu'lus sends greetings to you, as do Pudens and Linus and Claudia and all the brethren.

rsv@2Timothy:4:22 @ The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you.

rsv@Titus:1:1 @ Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to further the faith of God's elect and their knowledge of the truth which accords with godliness,

rsv@Titus:1:3 @ and at the proper time manifested in his word through the preaching with which I have been entrusted by command of God our Savior;

rsv@Titus:1:4 @ To Titus, my true child in a common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.

rsv@Titus:1:9 @ he must hold firm to the sure word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to confute those who contradict it.

rsv@Titus:1:15 @ To the pure all things are pure, but to the corrupt and unbelieving nothing is pure; their very minds and consciences are corrupted.

rsv@Titus:2:6 @ Likewise urge the younger men to control themselves.

rsv@Titus:2:7 @ Show yourself in all respects a model of good deeds, and in your teaching show integrity, gravity,

rsv@Titus:2:8 @ and sound speech that cannot be censured, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say of us.

rsv@Titus:2:10 @ nor to pilfer, but to show entire and true fidelity, so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.

rsv@Titus:2:13 @ awaiting our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,

rsv@Titus:2:14 @ who gave himself for us to redeem us from all iniquity and to purify for himself a people of his own who are zealous for good deeds.

rsv@Titus:3:2 @ to speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all men.

rsv@Titus:3:3 @ For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by men and hating one another;

rsv@Titus:3:4 @ but when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared,

rsv@Titus:3:6 @ which he poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior,

rsv@Titus:3:8 @ The saying is sure. I desire you to insist on these things, so that those who have believed in God may be careful to apply themselves to good deeds; these are excellent and profitable to men.

rsv@Titus:3:12 @ When I send Artemas or Tych'icus to you, do your best to come to me at Nicop'olis, for I have decided to spend the winter there.

rsv@Titus:3:13 @ Do your best to speed Zenas the lawyer and Apol'los on their way; see that they lack nothing.

rsv@Titus:3:14 @ And let our people learn to apply themselves to good deeds, so as to help cases of urgent need, and not to be unfruitful.

rsv@Philemon:1:1 @ Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, To Phile'mon our beloved fellow worker

rsv@Philemon:1:2 @ and Ap'phia our sister and Archip'pus our fellow soldier, and the church in your house:

rsv@Philemon:1:3 @ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@Philemon:1:5 @ because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and all the saints,

rsv@Philemon:1:6 @ and I pray that the sharing of your faith may promote the knowledge of all the good that is ours in Christ.

rsv@Philemon:1:7 @ For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you.

rsv@Philemon:1:13 @ I would have been glad to keep him with me, in order that he might serve me on your behalf during my imprisonment for the gospel;

rsv@Philemon:1:14 @ but I preferred to do nothing without your consent in order that your goodness might not be by compulsion but of your own free will.

rsv@Philemon:1:17 @ So if you consider me your partner, receive him as you would receive me.

rsv@Philemon:1:19 @ I, Paul, write this with my own hand, I will repay it--to say nothing of your owing me even your own self.

rsv@Philemon:1:21 @ Confident of your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I say.

rsv@Philemon:1:22 @ At the same time, prepare a guest room for me, for I am hoping through your prayers to be granted to you.

rsv@Philemon:1:25 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

rsv@Hebrews:1:1 @ In many and various ways God spoke of old to our fathers by the prophets;

rsv@Hebrews:1:3 @ He reflects the glory of God and bears the very stamp of his nature, upholding the universe by his word of power. When he had made purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high,

rsv@Hebrews:2:14 @ Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same nature, that through death he might destroy him who has the power of death, that is, the devil,

rsv@Hebrews:2:16 @ For surely it is not with angels that he is concerned but with the descendants of Abraham.

rsv@Hebrews:3:1 @ Therefore, holy brethren, who share in a heavenly call, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession.

rsv@Hebrews:3:6 @ but Christ was faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house if we hold fast our confidence and pride in our hope.

rsv@Hebrews:3:8 @ do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, on the day of testing in the wilderness,

rsv@Hebrews:3:9 @ where your fathers put me to the test and saw my works for forty years.

rsv@Hebrews:3:14 @ For we share in Christ, if only we hold our first confidence firm to the end,

rsv@Hebrews:3:15 @ while it is said, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion."

rsv@Hebrews:4:7 @ again he sets a certain day, "Today," saying through David so long afterward, in the words already quoted, "Today, when you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."

rsv@Hebrews:4:13 @ And before him no creature is hidden, but all are open and laid bare to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

rsv@Hebrews:4:14 @ Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

rsv@Hebrews:4:15 @ For we have not a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.

rsv@Hebrews:5:9 @ and being made perfect he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him,

rsv@Hebrews:5:14 @ But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their faculties trained by practice to distinguish good from evil.

rsv@Hebrews:6:1 @ Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith toward God,

rsv@Hebrews:6:2 @ with instruction about ablutions, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment.

rsv@Hebrews:6:8 @ But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed; its end is to be burned.

rsv@Hebrews:6:9 @ Though we speak thus, yet in your case, beloved, we feel sure of better things that belong to salvation.

rsv@Hebrews:6:10 @ For God is not so unjust as to overlook your work and the love which you showed for his sake in serving the saints, as you still do.

rsv@Hebrews:6:11 @ And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness in realizing the full assurance of hope until the end,

rsv@Hebrews:6:14 @ saying, "Surely I will bless you and multiply you."

rsv@Hebrews:6:15 @ And thus Abraham, having patiently endured, obtained the promise.

rsv@Hebrews:6:17 @ So when God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable character of his purpose, he interposed with an oath,

rsv@Hebrews:6:18 @ so that through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible that God should prove false, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to seize the hope set before us.

rsv@Hebrews:6:19 @ We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner shrine behind the curtain,

rsv@Hebrews:6:20 @ where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest for ever after the order of Melchiz'edek.

rsv@Hebrews:7:1 @ For this Melchiz'edek, king of Salem, priest of the Most High God, met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings and blessed him;

rsv@Hebrews:7:11 @ Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levit'ical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchiz'edek, rather than one named after the order of Aaron?

rsv@Hebrews:7:14 @ For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests.

rsv@Hebrews:7:22 @ This makes Jesus the surety of a better covenant.

rsv@Hebrews:9:3 @ Behind the second curtain stood a tent called the Holy of Holies,

rsv@Hebrews:9:4 @ having the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, which contained a golden urn holding the manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;

rsv@Hebrews:9:12 @ he entered once for all into the Holy Place, taking not the blood of goats and calves but his own blood, thus securing an eternal redemption.

rsv@Hebrews:9:13 @ For if the sprinkling of defiled persons with the blood of goats and bulls and with the ashes of a heifer sanctifies for the purification of the flesh,

rsv@Hebrews:9:14 @ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, purify your conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

rsv@Hebrews:9:15 @ Therefore he is the mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, since a death has occurred which redeems them from the transgressions under the first covenant.

rsv@Hebrews:9:22 @ Indeed, under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.

rsv@Hebrews:9:23 @ Thus it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be purified with these rites, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.

rsv@Hebrews:9:24 @ For Christ has entered, not into a sanctuary made with hands, a copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf.

rsv@Hebrews:10:6 @ in burnt offerings and sin offerings thou hast taken no pleasure.

rsv@Hebrews:10:8 @ When he said above, "Thou hast neither desired nor taken pleasure in sacrifices and offerings and burnt offerings and sin offerings" (these are offered according to the law),

rsv@Hebrews:10:20 @ by the new and living way which he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh,

rsv@Hebrews:10:22 @ let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

rsv@Hebrews:10:23 @ Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful;

rsv@Hebrews:10:25 @ not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

rsv@Hebrews:10:27 @ but a fearful prospect of judgment, and a fury of fire which will consume the adversaries.

rsv@Hebrews:10:29 @ How much worse punishment do you think will be deserved by the man who has spurned the Son of God, and profaned the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified, and outraged the Spirit of grace?

rsv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings,

rsv@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you had compassion on the prisoners, and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one.

rsv@Hebrews:10:35 @ Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.

rsv@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have need of endurance, so that you may do the will of God and receive what is promised.

rsv@Hebrews:10:38 @ but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."

rsv@Hebrews:11:1 @ Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

rsv@Hebrews:11:9 @ By faith he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a foreign land, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, heirs with him of the same promise.

rsv@Hebrews:11:15 @ If they had been thinking of that land from which they had gone out, they would have had opportunity to return.

rsv@Hebrews:11:18 @ of whom it was said, "Through Isaac shall your descendants be named."

rsv@Hebrews:11:19 @ He considered that God was able to raise men even from the dead; hence, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back.

rsv@Hebrews:11:20 @ By faith Isaac invoked future blessings on Jacob and Esau.

rsv@Hebrews:11:22 @ By faith Joseph, at the end of his life, made mention of the exodus of the Israelites and gave directions concerning his burial.

rsv@Hebrews:11:25 @ choosing rather to share ill-treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin.

rsv@Hebrews:11:26 @ He considered abuse suffered for the Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he looked to the reward.

rsv@Hebrews:11:27 @ By faith he left Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king; for he endured as seeing him who is invisible.

rsv@Hebrews:11:35 @ Women received their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured, refusing to accept release, that they might rise again to a better life.

rsv@Hebrews:11:36 @ Others suffered mocking and scourging, and even chains and imprisonment.

rsv@Hebrews:12:1 @ Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us,

rsv@Hebrews:12:2 @ looking to Jesus the pioneer and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.

rsv@Hebrews:12:3 @ Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.

rsv@Hebrews:12:4 @ In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.

rsv@Hebrews:12:5 @ And have you forgotten the exhortation which addresses you as sons?-- "My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor lose courage when you are punished by him.

rsv@Hebrews:12:7 @ It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

rsv@Hebrews:12:10 @ For they disciplined us for a short time at their pleasure, but he disciplines us for our good, that we may share his holiness.

rsv@Hebrews:12:12 @ Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,

rsv@Hebrews:12:13 @ and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but rather be healed.

rsv@Hebrews:12:19 @ and the sound of a trumpet, and a voice whose words made the hearers entreat that no further messages be spoken to them.

rsv@Hebrews:12:20 @ For they could not endure the order that was given, "If even a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned."

rsv@Hebrews:12:29 @ for our God is a consuming fire.

rsv@Hebrews:13:5 @ Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have; for he has said, "I will never fail you nor forsake you."

rsv@Hebrews:13:7 @ Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God; consider the outcome of their life, and imitate their faith.

rsv@Hebrews:13:11 @ For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest as a sacrifice for sin are burned outside the camp.

rsv@Hebrews:13:13 @ Therefore let us go forth to him outside the camp and bear the abuse he endured.

rsv@Hebrews:13:17 @ Obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls, as men who will have to give account. Let them do this joyfully, and not sadly, for that would be of no advantage to you.

rsv@Hebrews:13:18 @ Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to act honorably in all things.

rsv@Hebrews:13:19 @ I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner.

rsv@Hebrews:13:20 @ Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant,

rsv@Hebrews:13:23 @ You should understand that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom I shall see you if he comes soon.

rsv@Hebrews:13:24 @ Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those who come from Italy send you greetings.

rsv@James:1:3 @ for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.

rsv@James:1:11 @ For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.

rsv@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life which God has promised to those who love him.

rsv@James:1:14 @ but each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.

rsv@James:1:18 @ Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

rsv@James:1:21 @ Therefore put away all filthiness and rank growth of wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

rsv@James:1:22 @ But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

rsv@James:1:23 @ For if any one is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who observes his natural face in a mirror;

rsv@James:1:27 @ Religion that is pure and undefiled before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.

rsv@James:2:1 @ My brethren, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory.

rsv@James:2:2 @ For if a man with gold rings and in fine clothing comes into your assembly, and a poor man in shabby clothing also comes in,

rsv@James:2:4 @ have you not made distinctions among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

rsv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Is it not the rich who oppress you, is it not they who drag you into court?

rsv@James:2:8 @ If you really fulfil the royal law, according to the scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.

rsv@James:2:18 @ But some one will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

rsv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he offered his son Isaac upon the altar?

rsv@James:2:23 @ and the scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness"; and he was called the friend of God.

rsv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire. The tongue is an unrighteous world among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the cycle of nature, and set on fire by hell.

rsv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by humankind,

rsv@James:3:9 @ With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who are made in the likeness of God.

rsv@James:3:10 @ From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brethren, this ought not to be so.

rsv@James:3:11 @ Does a spring pour forth from the same opening fresh water and brackish?

rsv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth.

rsv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, without uncertainty or insincerity.

rsv@James:4:1 @ What causes wars, and what causes fightings among you? Is it not your passions that are at war in your members?

rsv@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.

rsv@James:4:4 @ Unfaithful creatures! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

rsv@James:4:5 @ Or do you suppose it is in vain that the scripture says, "He yearns jealously over the spirit which he has made to dwell in us"?

rsv@James:4:7 @ Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

rsv@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you men of double mind.

rsv@James:4:9 @ Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to dejection.

rsv@James:4:10 @ Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you.

rsv@James:4:12 @ There is one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you that you judge your neighbor?

rsv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know about tomorrow. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.

rsv@James:4:16 @ As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

rsv@James:5:2 @ Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten.

rsv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver have rusted, and their rust will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure for the last days.

rsv@James:5:4 @ Behold, the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts.

rsv@James:5:5 @ You have lived on the earth in luxury and in pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter.

rsv@James:5:8 @ You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

rsv@James:5:11 @ Behold, we call those happy who were steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful.

rsv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath, but let your yes be yes and your no be no, that you may not fall under condemnation.

rsv@James:5:14 @ Is any among you sick? 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;

rsv@James:5:16 @ Therefore confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power in its effects.

rsv@James:5:17 @ Eli'jah was a man of like nature with ourselves and he prayed fervently that it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth.

rsv@1Peter:1:3 @ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By his great mercy we have been born anew to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

rsv@1Peter:1:7 @ so that the genuineness of your faith, more precious than gold which though perishable is tested by fire, may redound to praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:1:9 @ As the outcome of your faith you obtain the salvation of your souls.

rsv@1Peter:1:10 @ The prophets who prophesied of the grace that was to be yours searched and inquired about this salvation;

rsv@1Peter:1:13 @ Therefore gird up your minds, be sober, set your hope fully upon the grace that is coming to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:1:14 @ As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance,

rsv@1Peter:1:15 @ but as he who called you is holy, be holy yourselves in all your conduct;

rsv@1Peter:1:17 @ And if you invoke as Father him who judges each one impartially according to his deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile.

rsv@1Peter:1:18 @ You know that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your fathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold,

rsv@1Peter:1:20 @ He was destined before the foundation of the world but was made manifest at the end of the times for your sake.

rsv@1Peter:1:21 @ Through him you have confidence in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.

rsv@1Peter:1:22 @ Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere love of the brethren, love one another earnestly from the heart.

rsv@1Peter:2:2 @ Like newborn babes, long for the pure spiritual milk, that by it you may grow up to salvation;

rsv@1Peter:2:5 @ and like living stones be yourselves built into a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

rsv@1Peter:2:6 @ For it stands in scripture: "Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a cornerstone chosen and precious, and he who believes in him will not be put to shame."

rsv@1Peter:2:11 @ Beloved, I beseech you as aliens and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh that wage war against your soul.

rsv@1Peter:2:12 @ Maintain good conduct among the Gentiles, so that in case they speak against you as wrongdoers, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day of visitation.

rsv@1Peter:2:16 @ Live as free men, yet without using your freedom as a pretext for evil; but live as servants of God.

rsv@1Peter:2:18 @ Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect, not only to the kind and gentle but also to the overbearing.

rsv@1Peter:2:19 @ For one is approved if, mindful of God, he endures pain while suffering unjustly.

rsv@1Peter:2:23 @ When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten; but he trusted to him who judges justly.

rsv@1Peter:2:24 @ He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

rsv@1Peter:2:25 @ For you were straying like sheep, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Guardian of your souls.

rsv@1Peter:3:1 @ Likewise you wives, be submissive to your husbands, so that some, though they do not obey the word, may be won without a word by the behavior of their wives,

rsv@1Peter:3:2 @ when they see your reverent and chaste behavior.

rsv@1Peter:3:3 @ Let not yours be the outward adorning with braiding of hair, decoration of gold, and wearing of fine clothing,

rsv@1Peter:3:7 @ Likewise you husbands, live considerately with your wives, bestowing honor on the woman as the weaker sex, since you are joint heirs of the grace of life, in order that your prayers may not be hindered.

rsv@1Peter:3:9 @ Do not return evil for evil or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing.

rsv@1Peter:3:11 @ let him turn away from evil and do right; let him seek peace and pursue it.

rsv@1Peter:3:15 @ but in your hearts reverence Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to make a defense to any one who calls you to account for the hope that is in you, yet do it with gentleness and reverence;

rsv@1Peter:3:16 @ and keep your conscience clear, so that, when you are abused, those who revile your good behavior in Christ may be put to shame.

rsv@1Peter:3:20 @ who formerly did not obey, when God's patience waited in the days of Noah, during the building of the ark, in which a few, that is, eight persons, were saved through water.

rsv@1Peter:3:21 @ Baptism, which corresponds to this, now saves you, not as a removal of dirt from the body but as an appeal to God for a clear conscience, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,

rsv@1Peter:4:1 @ Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same thought, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

rsv@1Peter:4:4 @ They are surprised that you do not now join them in the same wild profligacy, and they abuse you;

rsv@1Peter:4:7 @ The end of all things is at hand; therefore keep sane and sober for your prayers.

rsv@1Peter:4:8 @ Above all hold unfailing your love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins.

rsv@1Peter:4:12 @ Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery ordeal which comes upon you to prove you, as though something strange were happening to you.

rsv@1Peter:4:15 @ But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a wrongdoer, or a mischief-maker;

rsv@1Peter:5:2 @ Tend the flock of God that is your charge, not by constraint but willingly, not for shameful gain but eagerly,

rsv@1Peter:5:3 @ not as domineering over those in your charge but being examples to the flock.

rsv@1Peter:5:5 @ Likewise you that are younger be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

rsv@1Peter:5:6 @ Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that in due time he may exalt you.

rsv@1Peter:5:7 @ Cast all your anxieties on him, for he cares about you.

rsv@1Peter:5:8 @ Be sober, be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking some one to devour.

rsv@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experience of suffering is required of your brotherhood throughout the world.

rsv@2Peter:1:1 @ Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained a faith of equal standing with ours in the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:

rsv@2Peter:1:2 @ May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.

rsv@2Peter:1:4 @ by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, that through these you may escape from the corruption that is in the world because of passion, and become partakers of the divine nature.

rsv@2Peter:1:5 @ For this very reason make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge,

rsv@2Peter:1:8 @ For if these things are yours and abound, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Peter:1:10 @ Therefore, brethren, be the more zealous to confirm your call and election, for if you do this you will never fall;

rsv@2Peter:1:11 @ so there will be richly provided for you an entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

rsv@2Peter:1:14 @ since I know that the putting off of my body will be soon, as our Lord Jesus Christ showed me.

rsv@2Peter:1:15 @ And I will see to it that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things.

rsv@2Peter:1:16 @ For we did not follow cleverly devised myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

rsv@2Peter:1:19 @ And we have the prophetic word made more sure. You will do well to pay attention to this as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.

rsv@2Peter:1:20 @ First of all you must understand this, that no prophecy of scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation,

rsv@2Peter:2:6 @ if by turning the cities of Sodom and Gomor'rah to ashes he condemned them to extinction and made them an example to those who were to be ungodly;

rsv@2Peter:2:12 @ But these, like irrational animals, creatures of instinct, born to be caught and killed, reviling in matters of which they are ignorant, will be destroyed in the same destruction with them,

rsv@2Peter:2:13 @ suffering wrong for their wrongdoing. They count it pleasure to revel in the daytime. They are blots and blemishes, reveling in their dissipation, carousing with you.

rsv@2Peter:2:14 @ They have eyes full of adultery, insatiable for sin. They entice unsteady souls. They have hearts trained in greed. Accursed children!

rsv@2Peter:2:20 @ For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first.

rsv@2Peter:2:21 @ For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than after knowing it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them.

rsv@2Peter:2:22 @ It has happened to them according to the true proverb, The dog turns back to his own vomit, and the sow is washed only to wallow in the mire.

rsv@2Peter:3:1 @ This is now the second letter that I have written to you, beloved, and in both of them I have aroused your sincere mind by way of reminder;

rsv@2Peter:3:2 @ that you should remember the predictions of the holy prophets and the commandment of the Lord and Savior through your apostles.

rsv@2Peter:3:10 @ But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.

rsv@2Peter:3:15 @ And count the forbearance of our Lord as salvation. So also our beloved brother Paul wrote to you according to the wisdom given him,

rsv@2Peter:3:16 @ speaking of this as he does in all his letters. There are some things in them hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other scriptures.

rsv@2Peter:3:17 @ You therefore, beloved, knowing this beforehand, beware lest you be carried away with the error of lawless men and lose your own stability.

rsv@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.

rsv@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 touched with our hands, concerning the word of life--

rsv@1John:1:3 @ that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you may have fellowship with us; and our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ.

rsv@1John:1:4 @ And we are writing this that our joy may be complete.

rsv@1John:1:8 @ If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

rsv@1John:1:9 @ If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, and will forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

rsv@1John:2:2 @ and he is the expiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

rsv@1John:2:3 @ And by this we may be sure that we know him, if we keep his commandments.

rsv@1John:2:5 @ but whoever keeps his word, in him truly love for God is perfected. By this we may be sure that we are in him:

rsv@1John:2:12 @ I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his sake.

rsv@1John:2:18 @ Children, it is the last hour; and as you have heard that antichrist is coming, so now many antichrists have come; therefore we know that it is the last hour.

rsv@1John:2:29 @ If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that every one who does right is born of him.

rsv@1John:3:3 @ And every one who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure.

rsv@1John:3:9 @ No one born of God commits sin; for God's nature abides in him, and he cannot sin because he is born of God.

rsv@1John:3:12 @ and not be like Cain who was of the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own deeds were evil and his brother's righteous.

rsv@1John:3:15 @ Any one who hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

rsv@1John:3:16 @ By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

rsv@1John:3:19 @ By this we shall know that we are of the truth, and reassure our hearts before him

rsv@1John:3:20 @ whenever our hearts condemn us; for God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything.

rsv@1John:3:21 @ Beloved, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God;

rsv@1John:4:10 @ In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the expiation for our sins.

rsv@1John:5:3 @ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome.

rsv@1John:5:4 @ For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.

rsv@1John:5:21 @ Little children, keep yourselves from idols.

rsv@2John:1:4 @ I rejoiced greatly to find some of your children following the truth, just as we have been commanded by the Father.

rsv@2John:1:8 @ Look to yourselves, that you may not lose what you have worked for, but may win a full reward.

rsv@2John:1:12 @ Though I have much to write to you, I would rather not use paper and ink, but I hope to come to see you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

rsv@2John:1:13 @ The children of your elect sister greet you.

rsv@3John:1:2 @ Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in health; I know that it is well with your soul.

rsv@3John:1:3 @ For I greatly rejoiced when some of the brethren arrived and testified to the truth of your life, as indeed you do follow the truth.

rsv@3John:1:6 @ who have testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey as befits God's service.

rsv@3John:1:9 @ I have written something to the church; but Diot'rephes, who likes to put himself first, does not acknowledge my authority.

rsv@3John:1:10 @ So if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, prating against me with evil words. And not content with that, he refuses himself to welcome the brethren, and also stops those who want to welcome them and puts them out of the church.

rsv@Jude:1:3 @ Beloved, being very eager to write to you of our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

rsv@Jude:1:4 @ For admission has been secretly gained by some who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly persons who pervert the grace of our God into licentiousness and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.

rsv@Jude:1:7 @ just as Sodom and Gomor'rah and the surrounding cities, which likewise acted immorally and indulged in unnatural lust, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.

rsv@Jude:1:12 @ These are blemishes on your love feasts, as they boldly carouse together, looking after themselves; waterless clouds, carried along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, uprooted;

rsv@Jude:1:17 @ But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;

rsv@Jude:1:20 @ But you, beloved, build yourselves up on your most holy faith; pray in the Holy Spirit;

rsv@Jude:1:21 @ keep yourselves in the love of God; wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

rsv@Jude:1:25 @ to the only God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and for ever. Amen.

rsv@Revelation:1:4 @ John to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne,

rsv@Revelation:1:5 @ and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the first-born of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood

rsv@Revelation:4:11 @ "Worthy art thou, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for thou didst create all things, and by thy will they existed and were created."

rsv@Revelation:5:6 @ And between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders, I saw a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, with seven horns and with seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth;

rsv@Revelation:5:8 @ And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and with golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints;

rsv@Revelation:5:10 @ and hast made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they shall reign on earth."

rsv@Revelation:5:11 @ Then I looked, and I heard around the throne and the living creatures and the elders the voice of many angels, numbering myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands,

rsv@Revelation:5:13 @ And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all therein, saying, "To him who sits upon the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might for ever and ever!"

rsv@Revelation:5:14 @ And the four living creatures said, "Amen!" and the elders fell down and worshiped.

rsv@Revelation:6:1 @ Now I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures say, as with a voice of thunder, "Come!"

rsv@Revelation:6:3 @ When he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!"

rsv@Revelation:6:5 @ When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" And I saw, and behold, a black horse, and its rider had a balance in his hand;

rsv@Revelation:6:6 @ and I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; but do not harm oil and wine!"

rsv@Revelation:6:7 @ When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!"

rsv@Revelation:6:8 @ And I saw, and behold, a pale horse, and its rider's name was Death, and Hades followed him; and they were given power over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by wild beasts of the earth.

rsv@Revelation:6:10 @ they cried out with a loud voice, "O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before thou wilt judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell upon the earth?"

rsv@Revelation:7:1 @ After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree.

rsv@Revelation:7:2 @ Then I saw another angel ascend from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea,

rsv@Revelation:7:3 @ saying, "Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God upon their foreheads."

rsv@Revelation:7:4 @ And I heard the number of the sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand sealed, out of every tribe of the sons of Israel,

rsv@Revelation:7:10 @ and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb!"

rsv@Revelation:7:11 @ And all the angels stood round the throne and round the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,

rsv@Revelation:7:12 @ saying, "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen."

rsv@Revelation:8:1 @ When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.

rsv@Revelation:8:7 @ The first angel blew his trumpet, and there followed hail and fire, mixed with blood, which fell on the earth; and a third of the earth was burnt up, and a third of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

rsv@Revelation:8:8 @ The second angel blew his trumpet, and something like a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea;

rsv@Revelation:8:9 @ and a third of the sea became blood, a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.

rsv@Revelation:8:12 @ The fourth angel blew his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, and a third of the moon, and a third of the stars, so that a third of their light was darkened; a third of the day was kept from shining, and likewise a third of the night.

rsv@Revelation:9:2 @ he opened the shaft of the bottomless pit, and from the shaft rose smoke like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened with the smoke from the shaft.

rsv@Revelation:9:5 @ they were allowed to torture them for five months, but not to kill them, and their torture was like the torture of a scorpion, when it stings a man.

rsv@Revelation:9:10 @ They have tails like scorpions, and stings, and their power of hurting men for five months lies in their tails.

rsv@Revelation:9:13 @ Then the sixth angel blew his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God,

rsv@Revelation:9:14 @ saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, "Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphra'tes."

rsv@Revelation:9:15 @ So the four angels were released, who had been held ready for the hour, the day, the month, and the year, to kill a third of mankind.

rsv@Revelation:9:17 @ And this was how I saw the horses in my vision: the riders wore breastplates the color of fire and of sapphire and of sulphur, and the heads of the horses were like lions' heads, and fire and smoke and sulphur issued from their mouths.

rsv@Revelation:9:18 @ By these three plagues a third of mankind was killed, by the fire and smoke and sulphur issuing from their mouths.

rsv@Revelation:9:21 @ nor did they repent of their murders or their sorceries or their immorality or their thefts.

rsv@Revelation:10:9 @ So I went to the angel and told him to give me the little scroll; and he said to me, "Take it and eat; it will be bitter to your stomach, but sweet as honey in your mouth."

rsv@Revelation:11:1 @ Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff, and I was told: "Rise and measure the temple of God and the altar and those who worship there,

rsv@Revelation:11:2 @ but do not measure the court outside the temple; leave that out, for it is given over to the nations, and they will trample over the holy city for forty-two months.

rsv@Revelation:11:5 @ And if any one would harm them, fire pours out from their mouth and consumes their foes; if any one would harm them, thus he is doomed to be killed.

rsv@Revelation:11:6 @ They have power to shut the sky, that no rain may fall during the days of their prophesying, and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to smite the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.

rsv@Revelation:11:13 @ And at that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell; seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

rsv@Revelation:11:15 @ Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ, and he shall reign for ever and ever."

rsv@Revelation:11:16 @ And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God,

rsv@Revelation:12:4 @ His tail swept down a third of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to bear a child, that he might devour her child when she brought it forth;

rsv@Revelation:12:6 @ and the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, in which to be nourished for one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

rsv@Revelation:12:10 @ And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them day and night before our God.

rsv@Revelation:12:13 @ And when the dragon saw that he had been thrown down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had borne the male child.

rsv@Revelation:12:14 @ But the woman was given the two wings of the great eagle that she might fly from the serpent into the wilderness, to the place where she is to be nourished for a time, and times, and half a time.

rsv@Revelation:12:15 @ The serpent poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, to sweep her away with the flood.

rsv@Revelation:12:16 @ But the earth came to the help of the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed the river which the dragon had poured from his mouth.

rsv@Revelation:13:10 @ If any one is to be taken captive, to captivity he goes; if any one slays with the sword, with the sword must he be slain. Here is a call for the endurance and faith of the saints.

rsv@Revelation:14:1 @ Then I looked, and lo, on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with him a hundred and forty-four thousand who had his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads.

rsv@Revelation:14:3 @ and they sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders. No one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from the earth.

rsv@Revelation:14:7 @ and he said with a loud voice, "Fear God and give him glory, for the hour of his judgment has come; and worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the fountains of water."

rsv@Revelation:14:8 @ Another angel, a second, followed, saying, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, she who made all nations drink the wine of her impure passion."

rsv@Revelation:14:10 @ he also shall drink the wine of God's wrath, poured unmixed into the cup of his anger, and he shall be tormented with fire and sulphur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb.

rsv@Revelation:14:12 @ Here is a call for the endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

rsv@Revelation:14:15 @ And another angel came out of the temple, calling with a loud voice to him who sat upon the cloud, "Put in your sickle, and reap, for the hour to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is fully ripe."

rsv@Revelation:14:18 @ Then another angel came out from the altar, the angel who has power over fire, and he called with a loud voice to him who had the sharp sickle, "Put in your sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for its grapes are ripe."

rsv@Revelation:15:6 @ and out of the temple came the seven angels with the seven plagues, robed in pure bright linen, and their breasts girded with golden girdles.

rsv@Revelation:15:7 @ And one of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God who lives for ever and ever;

rsv@Revelation:16:1 @ Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, "Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God."

rsv@Revelation:16:2 @ So the first angel went and poured his bowl on the earth, and foul and evil sores came upon the men who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.

rsv@Revelation:16:3 @ The second angel poured his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a dead man, and every living thing died that was in the sea.

rsv@Revelation:16:4 @ The third angel poured his bowl into the rivers and the fountains of water, and they became blood.

rsv@Revelation:16:8 @ The fourth angel poured his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch men with fire;

rsv@Revelation:16:9 @ men were scorched by the fierce heat, and they cursed the name of God who had power over these plagues, and they did not repent and give him glory.

rsv@Revelation:16:10 @ The fifth angel poured his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was in darkness; men gnawed their tongues in anguish

rsv@Revelation:16:11 @ and cursed the God of heaven for their pain and sores, and did not repent of their deeds.

rsv@Revelation:16:12 @ The sixth angel poured his bowl on the great river Euphra'tes, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east.

rsv@Revelation:16:17 @ The seventh angel poured his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, "It is done!"

rsv@Revelation:16:19 @ The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered great Babylon, to make her drain the cup of the fury of his wrath.

rsv@Revelation:16:21 @ and great hailstones, heavy as a hundred-weight, dropped on men from heaven, till men cursed God for the plague of the hail, so fearful was that plague.

rsv@Revelation:17:4 @ The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, and bedecked with gold and jewels and pearls, holding in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her fornication;

rsv@Revelation:17:12 @ And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received royal power, but they are to receive authority as kings for one hour, together with the beast.

rsv@Revelation:17:16 @ And the ten horns that you saw, they and the beast will hate the harlot; they will make her desolate and naked, and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire,

rsv@Revelation:17:17 @ for God has put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose by being of one mind and giving over their royal power to the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

rsv@Revelation:18:3 @ for all nations have drunk the wine of her impure passion, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown rich with the wealth of her wantonness."

rsv@Revelation:18:7 @ As she glorified herself and played the wanton, so give her a like measure of torment and mourning. Since in her heart she says, `A queen I sit, I am no widow, mourning I shall never see,'

rsv@Revelation:18:8 @ so shall her plagues come in a single day, pestilence and mourning and famine, and she shall be burned with fire; for mighty is the Lord God who judges her."

rsv@Revelation:18:9 @ And the kings of the earth, who committed fornication and were wanton with her, will weep and wail over her when they see the smoke of her burning;

rsv@Revelation:18:10 @ they will stand far off, in fear of her torment, and say, "Alas! alas! thou great city, thou mighty city, Babylon! In one hour has thy judgment come."

rsv@Revelation:18:11 @ And the merchants of the earth weep and mourn for her, since no one buys their cargo any more,

rsv@Revelation:18:12 @ cargo of gold, silver, jewels and pearls, fine linen, purple, silk and scarlet, all kinds of scented wood, all articles of ivory, all articles of costly wood, bronze, iron and marble,

rsv@Revelation:18:13 @ cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, frankincense, wine, oil, fine flour and wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and slaves, that is, human souls.

rsv@Revelation:18:15 @ The merchants of these wares, who gained wealth from her, will stand far off, in fear of her torment, weeping and mourning aloud,

rsv@Revelation:18:16 @ "Alas, alas, for the great city that was clothed in fine linen, in purple and scarlet, bedecked with gold, with jewels, and with pearls!

rsv@Revelation:18:17 @ In one hour all this wealth has been laid waste." And all shipmasters and seafaring men, sailors and all whose trade is on the sea, stood far off

rsv@Revelation:18:18 @ and cried out as they saw the smoke of her burning, "What city was like the great city?"

rsv@Revelation:18:19 @ And they threw dust on their heads, as they wept and mourned, crying out, "Alas, alas, for the great city where all who had ships at sea grew rich by her wealth! In one hour she has been laid waste.

rsv@Revelation:19:1 @ After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying, "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,

rsv@Revelation:19:4 @ And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who is seated on the throne, saying, "Amen. Hallelujah!"

rsv@Revelation:19:5 @ And from the throne came a voice crying, "Praise our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, small and great."

rsv@Revelation:19:6 @ Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the sound of many waters and like the sound of mighty thunderpeals, crying, "Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns.

rsv@Revelation:19:8 @ it was granted her to be clothed with fine linen, bright and pure"-- for the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints.

rsv@Revelation:19:10 @ Then I fell down at his feet to worship him, but he said to me, "You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brethren who hold the testimony of Jesus. Worship God." For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

rsv@Revelation:19:14 @ And the armies of heaven, arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, followed him on white horses.

rsv@Revelation:19:15 @ From his mouth issues a sharp sword with which to smite the nations, and he will rule them with a rod of iron; he will tread the wine press of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty.

rsv@Revelation:19:20 @ And the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who in its presence had worked the signs by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped its image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulphur.

rsv@Revelation:20:5 @ The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection.

rsv@Revelation:20:6 @ Blessed and holy is he who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years.

rsv@Revelation:20:8 @ and will come out to deceive the nations which are at the four corners of the earth, that is, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea.

rsv@Revelation:20:9 @ And they marched up over the broad earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city; but fire came down from heaven and consumed them,

rsv@Revelation:20:10 @ and the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulphur where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

rsv@Revelation:21:4 @ he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away."

rsv@Revelation:21:8 @ But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, as for murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death."

rsv@Revelation:21:15 @ And he who talked to me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls.

rsv@Revelation:21:16 @ The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its breadth; and he measured the city with his rod, twelve thousand stadia; its length and breadth and height are equal.

rsv@Revelation:21:17 @ He also measured its wall, a hundred and forty-four cubits by a man's measure, that is, an angel's.

rsv@Revelation:21:18 @ The wall was built of jasper, while the city was pure gold, clear as glass.

rsv@Revelation:21:19 @ The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every jewel; the first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald,

rsv@Revelation:21:21 @ And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, transparent as glass.

rsv@Revelation:22:3 @ There shall no more be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and his servants shall worship him;

rsv@Revelation:22:9 @ but he said to me, "You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brethren the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God."

rsv@Revelation:22:15 @ Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and fornicators and murderers and idolaters, and every one who loves and practices falsehood.

rsv@Revelation:22:16 @ "I Jesus have sent my angel to you with this testimony for the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright morning star."

rsv@Revelation:22:20 @ He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
