Psm44:2 Uprooting the nations with your hand, and planting our fathers in their place; cutting down the nations, but increasing the growth of your people.

Psm44:17 All this has come on us, but still we have kept you in our memory; and we have not been false to your word.
Psm44:18 Our hearts have not gone back, and our steps have not been turned out of your way;
Psm44:19 Though you have let us be crushed in the place of jackals, though we are covered with darkest shade.
Psm44:20 If the name of our God has gone out of our minds, or if our hands have been stretched out to a strange god,
Psm44:22 Truly, because of you we are put to death every day; we are numbered like sheep for destruction.
Psm44:23 Why are you sleeping, O Lord? awake! and come to our help, do not give us up for ever.
Psm44:24 Why is your face covered, and why do you give no thought to our trouble and our cruel fate?

Psm44:26 Up! and come to our help, and give us salvation because of your mercy.

Psm47:4 He will give us our heritage, the glory of Jacob who is dear to him. (Selah.)
Psm47:6 Give praises to God, make songs of praise; give praises to our King, make songs of praise.
Psm47:7 For God is the King of all the earth; make songs of praise with knowledge.
Psm48:1 <A Song. A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah.> Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised, in the town of our God, in his holy mountain.

Psm48:6 Shaking came on them and pain, as on a woman in childbirth.
Psm48:8 As it came to our ears so have we seen it, in the town of the Lord of armies, in the town of our God; God will keep it fixed for ever. (Selah.)
Psm48:9 Our thoughts were of your mercy, O God, while we were in your Temple.

Psm49:1 <Alamoth. To the chief music-maker. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm.> Give attention to this, all you peoples; let your ears be open, all you who are living in the world.
Psm49:10 For he sees that wise men come to their end, and foolish persons of low behaviour come to destruction together, letting their wealth go to others.
Psm49:11 The place of the dead is their house for ever, and their resting-place through all generations; those who come after them give their names to their lands.
Psm49:13 This is the way of the foolish; their silver is for those who come after them, and their children get the pleasure of their gold. (Selah.)
Psm49:14 Death will give them their food like sheep; the underworld is their fate and they will go down into it; their flesh is food for worms; their form is wasted away; the underworld is their resting-place for ever.
Psm50:3 Our God will come, and will not keep quiet; with fire burning before him, and storm-winds round him.
Psm50:7 Give ear, O my people, to my words; O Israel, I will be a witness against you; I am God, even your God.
Psm50:14 Make an offering of praise to God; keep the agreements which you have made with the Most High;
Psm50:22 Now keep this in mind, you who have no memory of God, for fear that you may be crushed under my hand, with no one to give you help:
Psm53:1 <To the chief music-maker; put to Mahalath. Maschil. Of David.> The foolish man has said in his heart, God will not do anything. They are unclean, they have done evil works; there is not one who does good.
Psm53:3 Every one of them has gone back; they are unclean: there is not one who does good, no, not one.
Psm53:4 Have the workers of evil no knowledge? they take my people for food, as they would take bread; they make no prayer to God.
Psm53:5 They were in great fear, where there was no cause for fear: for the bones of those who make war on you have been broken by God; you have put them to shame, because God has no desire for them.
Psm54:1 <To the chief music-maker; on Neginoth. Maschil. Of David. When the Ziphites came and said to Saul, Is not David keeping himself secret among us?> Let your name be my salvation, O God; let my cause be judged by your strength.
Psm54:3 For men who are going after me have come out against me, violent men are purposing to take my soul; they have not put God before their eyes. (Selah.)
Psm54:5 Let the evil works of my haters come back on them again; let them be cut off by your good faith.
Psm55:3 I am troubled because of the voice of the cruel ones, because of the loud cry of the evil-doers; for they put a weight of evil on me, and they are cruel in their hate for me.
Psm55:9 Send destruction on them, O Lord, make a division of tongues among them: for I have seen fighting and violent acts in the town.
Psm55:10 By day and night they go round the town, on the walls; trouble and sorrow are in the heart of it.
Psm55:14 We had loving talk together, and went to the house of God in company.
Psm55:15 Let the hand of death come on them suddenly, and let them go down living into the underworld; because evil is in their houses and in their hearts.
Psm56:5 Every day they make wrong use of my words; all their thoughts are against me for evil.
Psm56:6 They come together, they are waiting in secret places, they take note of my steps, they are waiting for my soul.
Psm56:7 By evil-doing they will not get free from punishment. In wrath, O God, let the peoples be made low.
Psm57:4 My soul is among lions; I am stretched out among those who are on fire, even the sons of men, whose teeth are spears and arrows, and whose tongue is a sharp sword.
Psm57:6 They have made ready a net for my steps; my soul is bent down; they have made a great hole before me, and have gone down into it themselves. (Selah.)
Psm57:8 You are my glory; let the instruments of music be awake; I myself will be awake with the dawn.
Psm58:1 <To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. Michtam. Of David.> Is there righteousness in your mouths, O you gods? are you upright judges, O you sons of men?
Psm58:2 The purposes of your hearts are evil; your hands are full of cruel doings on the earth.
Psm58:4 Their poison is like the poison of a snake; they are like the adder, whose ears are shut;
Psm58:6 O God, let their teeth be broken in their mouths; let the great teeth of the young lions be pulled out, O Lord.
Psm58:7 Let them be turned to liquid like the ever-flowing waters; let them be cut off like the grass by the way.
Psm58:8 Let them be like an after-birth which is turned to water and comes to an end; like the fruit of a woman who gives birth before her time, let them not see the sun.
Psm58:9 Before they are conscious of it, let them be cut down like thorns; let a strong wind take them away like waste growth.
Psm59:3 For see, they are watching in secret for my soul; the strong have come together against me? but not because of my sin, or my evil-doing, O Lord.
Psm59:4 For no sin of mine they go quickly and get themselves ready; be awake and come to my help, and see.
Psm59:6 They come back in the evening; they make a noise like a dog, and go round the town.
Psm59:7 See, hate is dropping from their lips; curses are on their tongues: they say, Who gives attention to it?
Psm59:8 But you are laughing at them, O Lord; you will make sport of all the nations.
Psm59:11 Put them not to death, for so my people will keep the memory of them: let them be sent in all directions by your power; make them low, O Lord our saviour.
Psm59:12 Because of the sin of their mouths and the word of their lips, let them even be taken in their pride; and for their curses and their deceit,
Psm59:13 Put an end to them in your wrath, put an end to them, so that they may not be seen again; let them see that God is ruling in Jacob and to the ends of the earth. (Selah.)
Psm59:14 And in the evening let them come back, and make a noise like a dog, and go round the town.
Psm59:15 Let them go wandering up and down in search of food, and be there all night if they have not enough.
Psm60:1 <To the chief music-maker; put to Shushan-eduth. Michtam. Of David. For teaching. When he was fighting against Aram-naharaim and Aramzobah, when Joab came back, and put twelve thousand of the Edomites to death, in the Valley of Salt.> God, you have put us away from you, you have sent us in all directions, you have been angry; O be turned to us again.
Psm60:3 You have made the people see hard times; you have given us the wine of shaking for our drink.
Psm60:5 So that your loved ones may be made safe, let your right hand be my salvation, and give me an answer.
Psm60:10 Have not you put us away, O God? and you have not gone out with our armies.
Psm60:11 Give us help in our trouble; for there is no help in man.
Psm60:12 Through God we will do great things, for through him our haters will be crushed under our feet.
Psm62:3 How long will you go on designing evil against a man? running against him as against a broken wall, which is on the point of falling?
Psm62:4 Their only thought is to put him down from his place of honour; their delight is in deceit: blessing is in their mouths but cursing in their hearts. (Selah.)
Psm62:8 Have faith in him at all times, you people; let your hearts go flowing out before him: God is our safe place. (Selah.)
Psm62:9 Truly men of low birth are nothing, and men of high position are not what they seem; if they are put in the scales together they are less than a breath.
Psm63:10 They will be cut off by the sword; they will be food for foxes.
Psm64:3 Who make their tongues sharp like a sword, and whose arrows are pointed, even bitter words;
Psm64:4 So that in secret they may let loose their arrows at the upright, suddenly and unseen.
Psm64:5 They make themselves strong in an evil purpose; they make holes for secret nets; they say, Who will see it,
Psm64:6 Or make discovery of our secret purpose? The design is framed with care; and the inner thought of a man, and his heart, is deep.
Psm64:7 But God sends out an arrow against them; suddenly they are wounded.
Psm64:8 The evil of their tongues is the cause of their fall; all those who see them are shaking their heads at them.
Psm65:3 Evils have overcome us: but as for our sins, you will take them away.
Psm65:4 Happy is the man of your selection, to whom you give a resting-place in your house; we will be full of the good things out of your holy place.
Psm65:5 You will give us an answer in righteousness by great acts of power, O God of our salvation; you who are the hope of all the ends of the earth, and of the far-off lands of the sea;
Psm66:5 Come and see the works of God: he is to be feared in all he does to the children of men.
Psm66:6 The sea was turned into dry land: they went through the river on foot: there did we have joy in him.
Psm66:8 Give blessings to our God, O you peoples, let the voice of his praise be loud;
Psm66:9 Because he gives us life, and has not let our feet be moved.
Psm66:10 For you, O God, have put us to the test: testing us by fire like silver.
Psm66:11 You let us be put in prison; chains were put on our legs.
Psm66:12 You let men go driving over our heads; we went through fire and through water; but you took us out into a wide place.
Psm66:16 Come, give ear to me, all you God-fearing men, so that I may make clear to you what he has done for my soul.
Psm67:1 <To the chief music-maker. With corded instruments. A Psalm. A Song.> May God give us mercy and blessing, and let the light of his face be shining on us; (Selah.)
Psm67:6 The earth has given her increase; and God, even our God, will give us his blessing.
Psm67:7 God will give us his blessing; so let all the ends of the earth be in fear of him.
Psm68:2 Let them be like smoke before the driving wind; as wax turning soft before the fire, so let them come to an end before the power of God.
Psm68:4 Make songs to God, make songs of praise to his name; make a way for him who comes through the waste lands; his name is Jah; be glad before him.
Psm68:13 Will you take your rest among the flocks? like the wings of a dove covered with silver, and its feathers with yellow gold.
Psm68:14 When the Most High put the kings to flight, it was as white as snow in Salmon.
Psm68:16 Why are you looking with envy, you high hills, on the hill desired by God as his resting-place? truly, God will make it his house for ever.
Psm68:18 You have gone up on high, taking your prisoners with you; you have taken offerings from men; the Lord God has taken his place on the seat of his power.
Psm68:19 Praise be to the Lord, who is our support day by day, even the God of our salvation. (Selah.)
Psm68:20 Our God is for us a God of salvation; his are the ways out of death.
Psm68:22 The Lord said, I will make them come back from Bashan, and from the deep parts of the sea;
Psm68:27 There is little Benjamin ruling them, the chiefs of Judah and their army, the rulers of Zebulun and the rulers of Naphtali.
Psm68:28 O God, send out your strength; the strength, O God, with which you have done great things for us,
Psm68:32 Make songs to God, you kingdoms of the earth; O make songs of praise to the Lord; (Selah.)
Psm68:34 Make clear that strength is God's: he is lifted up over Israel, and his power is in the clouds.
Psm69:11 When I put on the clothing of grief, they said evil of me.
Psm69:21 They gave me poison for my food; and bitter wine for my drink.
Psm69:22 Let their table before them be for their destruction; let their feasts become a net to take them.
Psm69:23 Let their eyes be blind so that they may not see; let their bodies for ever be shaking.
Psm69:24 Let your curse come on them; let the heat of your wrath overtake them.
Psm69:25 Give their houses to destruction, and let there be no one in their tents.
Psm69:26 Because they are cruel to him against whom your hand is turned; they make bitter the grief of him who is wounded by you.
Psm69:27 Let their punishment be increased; let them not come into your righteousness.
Psm69:28 Let their names be taken from the book of the living, let them not be numbered with the upright.
Psm69:32 The poor will see it and be glad: you who are lovers of God, let your hearts have life.
Psm71:11 Saying, God has given him up; go after him and take him, for he has no helper.
Psm71:20 You, who have sent great and bitter troubles on me, will give me life again, lifting me up from the deep waters of the underworld.
Psm72:14 He will keep their souls free from evil designs and violent attacks; and their blood will be of value in his eyes.
Psm72:15 May he have long life, and may gold from Sheba be given to him: may prayers be made for him at all times; may blessings be on him every day.
Psm72:19 Praise to the glory of his noble name for ever; let all the earth be full of his glory. So be it, So be it.
Psm73:4 For they have no pain; their bodies are fat and strong.
Psm73:5 They are not in trouble as others are; they have no part in the unhappy fate of men.
Psm73:6 For this reason pride is round them like a chain; they are clothed with violent behaviour as with a robe.
Psm73:7 Their eyes are bursting with fat; they have more than their heart's desire.
Psm73:8 Their thoughts are deep with evil designs; their talk from their seats of power is of cruel acts.
Psm73:9 Their mouth goes up to heaven; their tongues go walking through the earth.
Psm73:11 And they say, How will the Lord see this? is there knowledge in the Most High?
Psm73:12 Truly, such are the sinners; they do well at all times, and their wealth is increased.
Psm73:17 Till I went into God's holy place, and saw the end of the evil-doers.
Psm73:18 You put their feet where there was danger of slipping, so that they go down into destruction.
Psm73:19 How suddenly are they wasted! fears are the cause of their destruction.
Psm73:20 As a dream when one is awake, they are ended; they are like an image gone out of mind when sleep is over.
Psm74:1 <Maschil. Of Asaph.> Of God, why have you put us away from you for ever? why is the fire of your wrath smoking against the sheep who are your care?
Psm74:4 Sending out their voices like lions among your worshippers; they have put up their signs to be seen.
Psm74:5 They are cutting down, like a man whose blade is lifted up against the thick trees.
Psm74:6 Your doors are broken down with hammers and iron blades.
Psm74:7 They have put on fire your holy place; they have made the place of your name unclean, pulling it down to the earth.
Psm74:8 They have said in their hearts, Let us put an end to them all together; they have given over to the fire all God's places of worship in the land.
Psm74:9 We do not see our signs: there is no longer any prophet, or anyone among us to say how long.
Psm74:11 Why are you keeping back your hand, and covering your right hand in your robe?
Psm75:1 <To the chief music-maker; put to Al-tashheth. A Psalm. Of Asaph. A Song.> To you, O God, we give praise, to you we give praise: and those who give honour to your name make clear your works of power.
Psm75:5 Let not your horn be lifted up: let no more words of pride come from your outstretched necks.
Psm76:5 Gone is the wealth of the strong, their last sleep has overcome them; the men of war have become feeble.
Psm76:11 Give to the Lord your God what is his by right; let all who are round him give offerings to him who is to be feared.
Psm78:1 <Maschil. Of Asaph.> Give ear, O my people, to my law; let your ears be bent down to the words of my mouth.
Psm78:3 Which have come to our hearing and our knowledge, as they were given to us by our fathers.
Psm78:4 We will not keep them secret from our children; we will make clear to the coming generation the praises of the Lord and his strength, and the great works of wonder which he has done.
Psm78:5 He put up a witness in Jacob, and made a law in Israel; which he gave to our fathers so that they might give knowledge of them to their children;
Psm78:6 So that the generation to come might have knowledge of them, even the children of the future, who would give word of them to their children;
Psm78:7 So that they might put their hope in God, and not let God's works go out of their minds, but keep his laws;
Psm78:8 And not be like their fathers, a stiff-necked and uncontrolled generation; a generation whose heart was hard, whose spirit was not true to God.
Psm78:10 They were not ruled by God's word, and they would not go in the way of his law;
Psm78:11 They let his works go out of their memory, and the wonders which he had made them see.
Psm78:12 He did great works before the eyes of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the fields of Zoan.
Psm78:13 The sea was cut in two so that they might go through; the waters were massed together on this side and on that.
Psm78:14 In the daytime he was guiding them in the cloud, and all through the night with a light of fire.
Psm78:15 The rocks of the waste land were broken by his power, and he gave them drink as out of the deep waters.
Psm78:17 And they went on sinning against him even more, turning away from the Most High in the waste land;
Psm78:18 Testing God in their hearts, requesting meat for their desire.
Psm78:22 Because they had no faith in God, and no hope in his salvation.
Psm78:24 And he sent down manna like rain for their food, and gave them the grain of heaven.
Psm78:25 Man took part in the food of strong ones; he sent them meat in full measure.
Psm78:27 He sent down meat on them like dust, and feathered birds like the sand of the sea,
Psm78:28 And he let it come down into their resting-place, round about their tents.
Psm78:29 So they had food and were full; for he gave them their desire;
Psm78:30 But they were not turned from their desires; and while the food was still in their mouths,
Psm78:31 The wrath of God came on them, and put to death the fattest of them, and put an end to the young men of Israel.
Psm78:32 For all this they went on sinning even more, and had no faith in his great wonders.
Psm78:33 So their days were wasted like a breath, and their years in trouble.
Psm78:34 When he sent death on them, then they made search for him; turning to him and looking for him with care;
Psm78:35 In the memory that God was their Rock, and the Most High God their saviour.
Psm78:36 But their lips were false to him, and their tongues were untrue to him;
Psm78:37 And their hearts were not right with him, and they did not keep their agreement with him.
Psm78:38 But he, being full of pity, has forgiveness for sin, and does not put an end to man: frequently turning back his wrath, and not being violently angry.
Psm78:39 So he kept in mind that they were only flesh; a breath which is quickly gone, and will not come again.
Psm78:40 How frequently did they go against him in the waste land, and give him cause for grief in the dry places!
Psm78:41 Again they put God to the test, and gave pain to the Holy One of Israel.
Psm78:42 They did not keep in mind the work of his hand, or the day when he took them from the power of their haters;
Psm78:44 So that their rivers were turned to blood, and they were not able to get drink from their streams.
Psm78:45 He sent different sorts of flies among them, poisoning their flesh; and frogs for their destruction.
Psm78:46 He gave the increase of their fields to worms, the fruits of their industry to the locusts.
Psm78:47 He sent ice for the destruction of their vines; their trees were damaged by the bitter cold.
Psm78:48 Ice was rained down on their cattle; thunderstorms sent destruction among the flocks.
Psm78:49 He sent on them the heat of his wrath, his bitter disgust, letting loose evil angels among them.
Psm78:50 He let his wrath have its way; he did not keep back their soul from death, but gave their life to disease.
Psm78:51 He gave to destruction all the first sons of Egypt; the first-fruits of their strength in the tents of Ham;
Psm78:52 But he took his people out like sheep, guiding them in the waste land like a flock.
Psm78:53 He took them on safely so that they had no fear; but their haters were covered by the sea.
Psm78:54 And he was their guide to his holy land, even to the mountain, which his right hand had made his;
Psm78:55 Driving out nations before them, marking out the line of their heritage, and giving the people of Israel their tents for a resting-place.
Psm78:56 But they were bitter against the Most High God, testing him, and not keeping his laws;
Psm78:57 Their hearts were turned back and untrue like their fathers; they were turned to one side like a twisted bow.
Psm78:58 They made him angry with their high places; moving him to wrath with their images.
Psm78:66 His haters were turned back by his blows and shamed for ever.
Psm78:72 So he gave them food with an upright heart, guiding them by the wisdom of his hands.
Psm79:3 Their blood has been flowing like water round about Jerusalem; there was no one to put them in their last resting-place.
Psm79:4 We are looked down on by our neighbours, we are laughed at and made sport of by those who are round us.
Psm79:7 For they have taken Jacob for their meat, and made waste his house.
Psm79:8 Do not keep in mind against us the sins of our fathers; let your mercy come to us quickly, for we have been made very low.
Psm79:9 Give us help, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name; take us out of danger and give us forgiveness for our sins, because of your name.
Psm79:10 Why may the nations say, Where is their God? Let payment for the blood of your servants be made openly among the nations before our eyes.
Psm79:12 And give punishment seven times over into the breast of our neighbours for the bitter words which they have said against you, O Lord.
Psm80:2 Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh, let your strength be awake from sleep, and come as our salvation.
Psm80:3 Take us back again, O God; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.
Psm80:5 You have given them the bread of weeping for food; for their drink you have given them sorrow in great measure.
Psm80:6 You make us a cause of war among our neighbours; our haters are laughing at us among themselves.
Psm80:7 Take us back again, O God of armies; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.
Psm80:16 It is burned with fire; it is cut down: they are made waste by the wrath of your face.
Psm80:18 So will we not be turned back from you; keep us in life, and we will give praise to your name.
Psm80:19 Take us back, O Lord God of armies; let us see the shining of your face, and let us be safe.
Psm81:1 <To the chief music-maker; put to the Gittith. Of Asaph.> Make a song to God our strength: make a glad cry to the God of Jacob.
Psm81:3 Let the horn be sounded in the time of the new moon, at the full moon, on our holy feast-day:
Psm81:12 So I gave them up to the desires of their hearts; that they might go after their evil purposes.
Psm81:14 I would quickly overcome their haters: my hand would be turned against those who make war on them.
Psm81:16 I would give them the best grain for food; you would be full of honey from the rock.
Psm82:2 How long will you go on judging falsely, having respect for the persons of evil-doers? (Selah.)
Psm82:3 Give ear to the cause of the poor and the children without fathers; let those who are troubled and in need have their rights.
Psm82:4 Be the saviour of the poor and those who have nothing: take them out of the hand of the evil-doers.
Psm82:5 They have no knowledge or sense; they go about in the dark: all the bases of the earth are moved.
Psm82:6 I said, You are gods; all of you are the sons of the Most High:
Psm82:7 But you will come to death like men, falling like one of the rulers of the earth.
Psm83:3 They have made wise designs against your people, talking together against those whom you keep in a secret place.
Psm83:4 They have said, Come, let us put an end to them as a nation; so that the name of Israel may go out of man's memory.
Psm83:5 For they have all come to an agreement; they are all joined together against you:
Psm83:8 Assur is joined with them; they have become the support of the children of Lot. (Selah.)
Psm83:9 Do to them what you did to the Midianites; what you did to Sisera and Jabin, at the stream of Kishon:
Psm83:10 Who came to destruction at En-dor; their bodies became dust and waste.
Psm83:11 Make their chiefs like Oreb and Zeeb; and all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna:
Psm83:12 Who have said, Let us take for our heritage the resting-place of God.
Psm83:13 O my God, make them like the rolling dust; like dry stems before the wind.
Psm83:15 So go after them with your strong wind, and let them be full of fear because of your storm.
Psm83:16 Let their faces be full of shame; so that they may give honour to your name, O Lord.
Psm83:17 Let them be overcome and troubled for ever; let them be put to shame and come to destruction;
Psm83:18 So that men may see that you only, whose name is Yahweh, are Most High over all the earth.
Psm84:4 Happy are they whose resting-place is in your house: they will still be praising you. (Selah.)
Psm84:6 Going through the valley of balsam-trees, they make it a place of springs; it is clothed with blessings by the early rain.
Psm84:7 They go from strength to strength; every one of them comes before God in Zion.
Psm84:9 O God, let your eyes be on him who is our safe cover, and let your heart be turned to your king.
Psm85:2 The wrongdoing of your people had forgiveness; all their sin had been covered. (Selah.)
Psm85:4 Come back to us, O God of our salvation, and be angry with us no longer.
Psm85:5 Will you go on being angry with us for ever? will you keep your wrath against us through all the long generations?
Psm85:6 Will you not give us life again, so that your people may be glad in you?
Psm85:7 Let us see your mercy, O Lord, and give us your salvation.
Psm85:8 I will give ear to the voice of the Lord; for he will say words of peace to his people and to his saints; but let them not go back to their foolish ways.
Psm85:9 Truly, his salvation is near to his worshippers; so that glory may be in our land.
Psm85:12 The Lord will give what is good; and our land will give its increase.
Psm86:9 Let all the nations whom you have made come and give worship to you, O Lord, giving glory to your name.
Psm86:14 O God, men of pride have come up against me, and the army of violent men would take my life; they have not put you before them.
Psm88:5 My soul is among the dead, like those in the underworld, to whom you give no more thought; for they are cut off from your care.
Psm88:8 You have sent my friends far away from me; you have made me a disgusting thing in their eyes: I am shut up, and not able to come out.
Psm89:15 Happy are the people who have knowledge of the holy cry: the light of your face, O Lord, will be shining on their way.
Psm89:16 In your name will they have joy all the day: in your righteousness will they be lifted up.
Psm89:17 For you are the glory of their strength; in your pleasure will our horn be lifted up.
Psm89:18 For our breastplate is the Lord; and our king is the Holy One of Israel's.
Psm89:32 Then I will send punishment on them for their sin; my rod will be the reward of their evil-doing.
Psm89:47 See how short my time is; why have you made all men for no purpose?
Psm89:50 Keep in mind, O Lord, the shame of your servants, and how the bitter words of all the people have come into my heart;
Psm89:52 Let the Lord be praised for ever. So be it, So be it.
Psm90:1 <A Prayer of Moses, the man of God.> Lord, you have been our resting-place in all generations.
Psm90:3 You send man back to his dust; and say, Go back, you children of men.
Psm90:5 ...
Psm90:7 We are burned up by the heat of your passion, and troubled by your wrath.
Psm90:8 You have put our evil doings before you, our secret sins in the light of your face.
Psm90:9 For all our days have gone by in your wrath; our years come to an end like a breath.
Psm90:10 The measure of our life is seventy years; and if through strength it may be eighty years, its pride is only trouble and sorrow, for it comes to an end and we are quickly gone.
Psm90:12 So give us knowledge of the number of our days, that we may get a heart of wisdom.
Psm90:13 Come back, O Lord; how long? let your purpose for your servants be changed.
Psm90:14 In the morning give us your mercy in full measure; so that we may have joy and delight all our days.
Psm90:15 Make us glad in reward for the days of our sorrow, and for the years in which we have seen evil.
Psm90:16 Make your work clear to your servants, and your glory to their children.
Psm90:17 Let the pleasure of the Lord our God be on us: O Lord, give strength to the work of our hands.
Psm91:12 In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.
Psm92:7 When the sinners come up like the grass, and all the workers of evil do well for themselves, it is so that their end may be eternal destruction.
Psm92:13 Those who are planted in the house of the Lord will come up tall and strong in his gardens.
Psm92:14 They will give fruit even when they are old; they will be fertile and full of growth;
Psm94:4 Words of pride come from their lips; all the workers of evil say great things of themselves.
Psm94:5 Your people are crushed by them, O Lord, your heritage is troubled,
Psm94:6 They put to death the widow and the guest, they take the lives of children who have no father;
Psm94:7 And they say, Jah will not see it, the God of Jacob will not give thought to it.
Psm94:8 Give your mind to my words, you who are without wisdom among the people; you foolish men, when will you be wise?
Psm94:21 They are banded together against the soul of the upright, to give decisions against those who have done no wrong.
Psm94:23 And he has made their evil designs come back on themselves, cutting them off in their sin; the Lord our God will put an end to them.
Psm95:1 O come, let us make songs to the Lord; sending up glad voices to the Rock of our salvation.
Psm95:2 Let us come before his face with praises; and make melody with holy songs.
Psm95:6 O come, let us give worship, falling down on our knees before the Lord our Maker.
Psm95:7 For he is our God; and we are the people to whom he gives food, and the sheep of his flock. Today, if you would only give ear to his voice!
Psm95:8 Let not your hearts be hard, as at Meribah, as in the day of Massah in the waste land;
Psm95:9 When your fathers put me to the test and saw my power and my work.
Psm95:11 And I made an oath in my wrath, that they might not come into my place of rest.
Psm96:1 O make a new song to the Lord; let all the earth make melody to the Lord.
Psm96:7 Give to the Lord, O you families of the peoples, give to the Lord glory and strength.
Psm97:7 Shamed be all those who give worship to images, and take pride in false gods; give him worship, all you gods.
Psm97:10 You who are lovers of the Lord, be haters of evil; he keeps the souls of his saints; he takes them out of the hand of sinners.
Psm97:12 Be glad in the Lord, you upright men; praising the memory of his holy name.
Psm98:1 <A Psalm.> O make a new song to the Lord, because he has done works of wonder; with his right hand, and with his holy arm, he has overcome.
Psm98:3 He has kept in mind his mercy and his unchanging faith to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
Psm99:3 Let them give praise to your name, for it is great and to be feared; holy is he.
Psm99:5 Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping at his feet; holy is he.
Psm99:6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who gave honour to his name; they made prayers to the Lord, and he gave answers to them.
Psm99:7 His voice came to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his witness, and the law which he gave them.
Psm99:8 You gave them an answer, O Lord our God; you took away their sin, though you gave them punishment for their wrongdoing.
Psm99:9 Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping with your faces turned to his holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.
Psm100:2 Give worship to the Lord with joy; come before him with a song.
Psm100:3 Be certain that the Lord is God; it is he who has made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep to whom he gives food.
Psm101:6 My eyes will be on those of good faith in the land, so that they may be living in my house; he who is walking in the right way will be my servant.
Psm102:17 When he has given ear to the prayer of the poor, and has not put his request on one side.
Psm102:28 The children of your servants will have a safe resting-place, and their seed will be ever before you.
Psm103:10 He has not given us the punishment for our sins, or the reward of our wrongdoing.
Psm103:12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has he put our sins from us.
Psm103:14 For he has knowledge of our feeble frame; he sees that we are only dust.
Psm103:21 Give praise to the Lord, all you his armies; and you his servants who do his pleasure.
Psm103:22 Give praise to the Lord, all his works, in all places under his rule: give praise to the Lord, O my soul.
Psm104:28 They take what you give them; they are full of the good things which come from your open hand.
Psm104:29 If your face is veiled, they are troubled; when you take away their breath, they come to an end, and go back to the dust.
Psm104:30 If you send out your spirit, they are given life; you make new the face of the earth.
Psm104:35 Let sinners be cut off from the earth, and let all evil-doers come to an end. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul. Give praise to the Lord.
Psm105:1 O give praise to the Lord; give honour to his name, talking of his doings among the peoples.
Psm105:5 Keep in mind the great works which he has done; his wonders, and the decisions of his mouth;
Psm105:7 He is the Lord our God: he is judge of all the earth.
Psm105:12 When they were still small in number, and strange in the land;
Psm105:13 When they went about from one nation to another, and from one kingdom to another people.
Psm105:14 He would not let anyone do them wrong; he even kept back kings because of them,
Psm105:17 He sent a man before them, even Joseph, who was given as a servant for a price:
Psm105:24 And his people were greatly increased, and became stronger than those who were against them.
Psm105:29 At his word their waters were turned to blood, and he sent death on all their fish.
Psm105:30 Their land was full of frogs, even in the rooms of the king.
Psm105:31 He gave the word, and there came the dog-fly, and insects over all the land.
Psm105:32 He gave them ice for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
Psm105:33 He gave their vines and their fig-trees to destruction, and the trees of their land were broken down.
Psm105:35 And put an end to all the plants of their land, taking all the fruit of the earth for food.
Psm105:36 He put to death the first child of every family in the land, the first-fruits of their strength.
Psm105:38 Egypt was glad when they went; for the fear of them had come down on them.
Psm105:40 At the people's request he sent birds, and gave them the bread of heaven for food.
Psm105:44 And gave them the lands of the nations; and they took the work of the peoples for a heritage;
Psm105:45 So that they might keep his orders, and be true to his laws. Give praise to the Lord.
Psm106:1 Let the Lord be praised. O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm106:6 We are sinners like our fathers, we have done wrong, our acts are evil.
Psm106:7 Our fathers did not give thought to your wonders in Egypt; they did not keep in memory the great number of your mercies, but gave you cause for wrath at the sea, even at the Red Sea.
Psm106:8 But he was their saviour because of his name, so that men might see his great power.
Psm106:9 By his word the Red Sea was made dry: and he took them through the deep waters as through the waste land.
Psm106:10 And he took them safely out of the hands of their haters, and kept them from the attacks of those who were against them.
Psm106:11 And the waters went over their haters; all of them came to an end.
Psm106:12 Then they had faith in his words; they gave him songs of praise.
Psm106:13 But their memory of his works was short; not waiting to be guided by him,
Psm106:15 And he gave them their request, but sent a wasting disease into their souls.
Psm106:16 They were full of envy against Moses among the tents, and against Aaron, the holy one of the Lord.
Psm106:18 And a fire was lighted among their tents; the sinners were burned up by the flames.
Psm106:19 They made a young ox in Horeb, and gave worship to an image of gold.
Psm106:20 And their glory was changed into the image of an ox, whose food is grass.
Psm106:21 They had no memory of God their saviour, who had done great things in Egypt;
Psm106:23 And he was purposing to put an end to them if Moses, his special servant, had not gone up before him, between him and his people, turning back his wrath, to keep them from destruction.
Psm106:24 They were disgusted with the good land; they had no belief in his word;
Psm106:26 So he made an oath against them, to put an end to them in the waste land:
Psm106:27 That their children might be mixed among the nations, and sent away into other lands.
Psm106:28 And they were joined to Baal-peor, and took part in the offerings to the dead.
Psm106:29 So they made him angry by their behaviour; and he sent disease on them.
Psm106:32 They made God angry again at the waters of Meribah, so that Moses was troubled because of them;
Psm106:33 For they made his spirit bitter, and he said unwise things.
Psm106:34 They did not put an end to the peoples, as the Lord had said;
Psm106:35 But they were joined to the nations, learning their works.
Psm106:36 And they gave worship to images; which were a danger to them:
Psm106:38 And gave the blood of their sons and their daughters who had done no wrong, offering them to the images of Canaan; and the land was made unclean with blood.
Psm106:39 So they became unclean through their works, going after their evil desires.
Psm106:41 And he gave them into the hands of the nations; and they were ruled by their haters.
Psm106:42 By them they were crushed, and made low under their hands.
Psm106:43 Again and again he made them free; but their hearts were turned against his purpose, and they were overcome by their sins.
Psm106:44 But when their cry came to his ears, he had pity on their trouble:
Psm106:45 And kept in mind his agreement with them, and in his great mercy gave them forgiveness.
Psm106:46 He put pity into the hearts of those who made them prisoners.
Psm106:47 Be our saviour, O Lord our God, and let us come back together from among the nations, so that we may give honour to your holy name, and have glory in your praise.
Psm106:48 Praise be to the Lord God of Israel for ever and for ever; and let all the people say, So be it. Give praise to the Lord.
Psm107:1 O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm107:4 They were wandering in the waste places; they saw no way to a resting-place.
Psm107:6 Then they sent up their cry to the Lord in their sorrow, and he gave them salvation out of all their troubles;
Psm107:7 Guiding them in the right way, so that they might come into the town of their resting-place.
Psm107:11 Because they went against the words of God, and gave no thought to the laws of the Most High:
Psm107:12 So that he made their hearts weighted down with grief; they were falling, and had no helper.
Psm107:13 Then they sent up their cry to the Lord in their sorrow, and he gave them salvation out of all their troubles.
Psm107:14 He took them out of the dark and the black night, and all their chains were broken.
Psm107:18 They are disgusted by all food, and they come near to the doors of death.
Psm107:19 Then they send up their cry to the Lord in their sorrow, and he gives them salvation out of all their troubles.
Psm107:20 He sent his word and made them well, and kept them safe from the underworld.
Psm107:22 Let them make offerings of praise, giving news of his works with cries of joy.
Psm107:24 They see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.
Psm107:26 The sailors go up to heaven, and down into the deep; their souls are wasted because of their trouble.
Psm107:27 They are turned here and there, rolling like a man who is full of wine; and all their wisdom comes to nothing.
Psm107:28 Then they send up their cry to the Lord in their sorrow, and he gives them salvation out of all their troubles.
Psm107:30 Then they are glad, because the sea is quiet, and he takes them to the harbour of their desire.
Psm107:32 Let them give glory to him in the meeting of the people, and praise among the chiefs.
Psm107:38 He gives them his blessing so that they are increased greatly, and their cattle do not become less.
Psm107:39 And when they are made low, and crushed by trouble and sorrow,
Psm107:40 He puts an end to the pride of kings, and sends them wandering in the waste lands where there is no way.
Psm108:2 Give out your sounds, O corded instruments: the dawn will be awaking with my song.
Psm108:6 Let your right hand be stretched out for salvation, and give me an answer, so that your loved ones may be safe from danger.
Psm108:11 Have you not sent us away from you, O God? and you go not out with our armies.
Psm108:12 Give us help in our trouble; for there is no help in man.
Psm108:13 With God we will do great things; for by him will our haters be crushed underfoot.
Psm109:2 For the mouth of the sinner is open against me in deceit: his tongue has said false things against me.
Psm109:3 Words of hate are round about me; they have made war against me without cause.
Psm109:4 For my love they give me back hate; but I have given myself to prayer.
Psm109:5 They have put on me evil for good; hate in exchange for my love.
Psm109:10 Let his children be wanderers, looking to others for their food; let them be sent away from the company of their friends.
Psm109:16 Because he had no mercy, but was cruel to the low and the poor, designing the death of the broken-hearted.
Psm109:25 As for me, they make sport of me; shaking their heads when they see me.
Psm109:27 So that they may see that it is the work of your hand; that you, Lord, have done it.
Psm109:28 They may give curses but you give blessing; when they come up against me, put them to shame; but let your servant be glad.
Psm109:29 Let my haters be clothed with shame, covering themselves with shame as with a robe.
Psm111:1 Let the Lord be praised. I will give praise to the Lord with all my heart, among the upright, and in the meeting of the people.
Psm111:6 He has made clear to his people the power of his works, giving them the heritage of the nations.
Psm112:1 Let the Lord be praised. Happy is the man who gives honour to the Lord, and has great delight in his laws.
Psm113:1 Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.
Psm113:5 Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,
Psm113:8 To give him a place among the rulers, even with the rulers of his people.
Psm113:9 He gives the unfertile woman a family, making her a happy mother of children. Give praise to the Lord.
Psm115:1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name let glory be given, because of your mercy and your unchanging faith.
Psm115:2 Why may the nations say, Where is now their God?
Psm115:3 But our God is in heaven: he has done whatever was pleasing to him.
Psm115:4 Their images are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
Psm115:10 O house of Aaron, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.
Psm115:11 You worshippers of the Lord, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate.
Psm115:12 The Lord has kept us in mind and will give us his blessing; he will send blessings on the house of Israel and on the house of Aaron.
Psm115:14 May the Lord give you and your children still greater increase.
Psm115:15 May you have the blessing of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Psm115:18 But we will give praise to the Lord now and for ever. Praise be to the Lord.
Psm116:5 The Lord is full of grace and righteousness; truly, he is a God of mercy.
Psm116:18 I will make the offerings of my oath, even before all his people;
Psm117:1 Let all the nations give praise to the Lord: let all the people give him praise.
Psm117:2 For great is his mercy to us, and his faith is unchanging for ever. Praise be to the Lord.
Psm118:1 O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm118:10 All the nations have come round me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.
Psm118:11 They are round me, yes, they are all about me; but in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.
Psm118:12 They are round me like bees; but they are put out like a fire among thorns; for in the name of the Lord I will have them cut down.
Psm118:23 This is the Lord's doing; it is a wonder in our eyes.
Psm118:24 This is the day which the Lord has made; we will be full of joy and delight in it.
Psm118:25 Send salvation now, O Lord; Lord, send us your blessing.
Psm118:26 A blessing be on him who comes in the name of the Lord; we give you blessing from the house of the Lord.
Psm118:27 The Lord is God, and he has given us light; let the holy dance be ordered with branches, even up to the horns of the altar.
Psm118:29 O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm119:4 You have put your orders into our hearts, so that we might keep them with care.
Psm119:21 Your hand has been against the men of pride, a curse is on those who go wandering out of your way.
Psm119:70 Their hearts are shut up with fat; but my delight is in your law.
Psm119:78 Let the men of pride be shamed; because they have falsely given decision against me; but I will give thought to your orders.
Psm119:79 Let your worshippers be turned to me, and those who have knowledge of your words.
Psm119:86 All your teachings are certain; they go after me with evil design; give me your help.
Psm119:87 They had almost put an end to me on earth; but I did not give up your orders.
Psm119:115 Go far from me, you evil-doers; so that I may keep the teachings of my God.
Psm119:118 You have overcome all those who are wandering from your rules; for all their thoughts are false.
Psm119:136 Rivers of water are flowing from my eyes, because men do not keep your law.
Psm119:150 Those who have evil designs against me come near; they are far from your law.
Psm119:155 Salvation is far from evil-doers; for they have made no search for your rules.
Psm119:158 I saw with hate those who were untrue to you; for they did not keep your saying.
Psm119:165 Great peace have lovers of your law; they have no cause for falling.
Psm120:7 I am for peace: but when I say so, they are for war.
Psm122:1 <A Song of the going up. Of David.> I was glad because they said to me, We will go into the house of the Lord.
Psm122:2 At last our feet were inside your doors, O Jerusalem.
Psm122:6 O make prayers for the peace of Jerusalem; may they whose love is given to you do well.
Psm122:9 Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will be working for your good.
Psm123:2 See! as the eyes of servants are turned to the hands of their masters, and the eyes of a servant-girl to her owner, so our eyes are waiting for the Lord our God, till he has mercy on us.
Psm123:3 Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us: for all men are looking down on us.
Psm123:4 For long enough have men of pride made sport of our soul.
Psm124:1 <A Song of the going up. Of David.> If it had not been the Lord who was on our side (let Israel now say);
Psm124:2 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men came up against us;
Psm124:3 They would have made a meal of us while still living, in the heat of their wrath against us:
Psm124:4 We would have been covered by the waters; the streams would have gone over our soul;
Psm124:5 Yes, the waters of pride would have gone over our soul.
Psm124:6 Praise be to the Lord, who has not let us be wounded by their teeth.
Psm124:7 Our soul has gone free like a bird out of the net of those who would take her: the net is broken, and we are free.
Psm124:8 Our help is in the name of the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.
Psm126:1 <A Song of the going up.> When the Lord made a change in Zion's fate, we were like men in a dream.
Psm126:2 Then our mouths were full of laughing, and our tongues gave a glad cry; they said among the nations, The Lord has done great things for them.
Psm126:3 The Lord has done great things for us; because of which we are glad.
Psm126:4 Let our fate be changed, O Lord, like the streams in the South.
Psm127:2 It is of no use for you to get up early, and to go late to your rest, with the bread of sorrow for your food; for the Lord gives to his loved ones in sleep.
Psm127:5 Happy is the man who has a good store of them; he will not be put to shame, but his cause will be supported by them against his haters.
Psm129:6 Let them be like the grass on the house-tops, which is dry before it comes to full growth.
Psm129:8 And those who go by do not say, The blessing of the Lord be on you; we give you blessing in the name of the Lord.
Psm132:6 We had news of it at Ephrathah: we came to it in the fields of the wood.
Psm132:7 Let us go into his tent; let us give worship at his feet.
Psm132:12 If your children keep my word, and the teachings which I will give them, their children will be rulers of your kingdom for ever.
Psm134:1 <A Song of the going up.> Give praise to the Lord, all you servants of the Lord, who take your places in the house of the Lord by night.
Psm134:2 Give praise to the Lord, lifting up your hands in his holy place.
Psm134:3 May the Lord, who made heaven and earth, send you blessing out of Zion,
Psm135:1 Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.
Psm135:3 Give praise to Jah, for he is good: make melody to his name, for it is pleasing.
Psm135:5 I know that the Lord is great, and that our Lord is greater than all other gods.
Psm135:12 And gave their land for a heritage, even for a heritage to Israel his people.
Psm135:19 Give praise to the Lord, O children of Israel: give praise to the Lord, O sons of Aaron:
Psm135:20 Give praise to the Lord, O sons of Levi: let all the worshippers of the Lord give him praise.
Psm135:21 Praise be to the Lord out of Zion, even to the Lord whose house is in Jerusalem, Let the Lord be praised.
Psm136:1 O give praise to the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm136:2 O give praise to the God of gods: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm136:3 O give praise to the Lord of lords: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm136:11 And took out Israel from among them: for his mercy is unchanging for ever:
Psm136:21 And gave their land to his people for a heritage: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm136:23 Who kept us in mind when we were in trouble: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm136:24 And has taken us out of the hands of our haters: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm136:26 O give praise to the God of heaven: for his mercy is unchanging for ever.
Psm137:1 By the rivers of Babylon we were seated, weeping at the memory of Zion,
Psm137:2 Hanging our instruments of music on the trees by the waterside.
Psm137:3 For there those who had taken us prisoners made request for a song; and those who had taken away all we had gave us orders to be glad, saying, Give us one of the songs of Zion.
Psm137:4 How may we give the Lord's song in a strange land?
Psm137:8 O daughter of Babylon, whose fate is destruction; happy is the man who does to you what you have done to us.
Psm138:4 All the kings of the earth will give you praise, O Lord, when the words of your mouth come to their ears.
Psm138:5 They will make songs about the ways of the Lord; for great is the glory of the Lord.
Psm138:7 Even when trouble is round me, you will give me life; your hand will be stretched out against the wrath of my haters, and your right hand will be my salvation.
Psm139:19 If only you would put the sinners to death, O God; go far from me, you men of blood.
Psm139:20 For they go against you with evil designs, and your haters make sport of your name.
Psm139:21 Are not your haters hated by me, O Lord? are not those who are lifted up against you a cause of grief to me?
Psm139:22 My hate for them is complete; my thoughts of them are as if they were making war on me.
Psm140:2 For their hearts are full of evil designs; and they are ever making ready causes of war.
Psm140:3 Their tongues are sharp like the tongue of a snake; the poison of snakes is under their lips. (Selah.)
Psm140:4 O Lord, take me out of the hands of sinners; keep me safe from the violent man: for they are designing my downfall.
Psm140:5 The men of pride have put secret cords for my feet; stretching nets in my way, so that they may take me with their tricks. (Selah.)
Psm140:8 O Lord, give not the wrongdoer his desire; give him no help in his evil designs, or he may be uplifted in pride. (Selah.)
Psm140:9 As for those who come round me, let their heads be covered by the evil of their lips.
Psm140:10 Let burning flames come down on them: let them be put into the fire, and into deep waters, so that they may not get up again.
Psm141:4 Keep my heart from desiring any evil thing, or from taking part in the sins of the evil-doers with men who do wrong: and let me have no part in their good things.
Psm141:5 Let the upright give me punishment; and let the god-fearing man put me in the right way; but I will not let the oil of sinners come on my head: when they do evil I will give myself to prayer.
Psm141:6 When destruction comes to their judges by the side of the rock, they will give ear to my words, for they are sweet.
Psm141:7 Our bones are broken up at the mouth of the underworld, as the earth is broken by the plough.
Psm142:6 Give ear to my cry, for I am made very low: take me out of the hands of my haters, for they are stronger than I.
Psm144:6 With your storm-flames send them in flight: send out your arrows for their destruction.
Psm144:8 In whose mouths are false words, and whose right hand is a right hand of deceit.
Psm144:11 Make me free, and take me out of the hands of strange men, in whose mouths are false words, and whose right hand is a right hand of deceit.
Psm144:12 Our sons are like tall young plants; and our daughters like the shining stones of a king's house;
Psm144:13 Our store-houses are full of all good things; and our sheep give birth to thousands and ten thousands in our fields.
Psm144:14 Our oxen are well weighted down; our cows give birth safely; there is no going out, and there is no cry of sorrow in our open places.
Psm144:15 Happy is the nation whose ways are so ordered: yes, happy is the nation whose God is the Lord.
Psm145:7 Their sayings will be full of the memory of all your mercy, and they will make songs of your righteousness.
Psm145:14 The Lord is the support of all who are crushed, and the lifter up of all who are bent down.
Psm145:15 The eyes of all men are waiting for you; and you give them their food in its time.
Psm145:18 The Lord is near all those who give honour to his name; even to all who give honour to him with true hearts.
Psm145:19 To his worshippers, he will give their desire; their cry comes to his ears, and he gives them salvation.
Psm146:1 Let the Lord be praised. Give praise to the Lord, O my soul.
Psm146:3 Put not your faith in rulers, or in the son of man, in whom there is no salvation.
Psm146:10 The Lord will be King for ever; your God, O Zion, will be King through all generations. Praise be to the Lord.
Psm147:1 Give praise to the Lord; for it is good to make melody to our God; praise is pleasing and beautiful.
Psm147:3 He makes the broken-hearted well, and puts oil on their wounds.
Psm147:5 Great is our Lord, and great his power; there is no limit to his wisdom.
Psm147:7 Make songs of praise to the Lord; make melody to our God with instruments of music.
Psm147:20 He has not done these things for any other nation: and as for his laws, they have no knowledge of them. Let the Lord be praised.
Psm148:1 Give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised from the heavens: give him praise in the skies.
Psm148:3 Give praise to him, you sun and moon: give praise to him, all you stars of light.
Psm148:4 Give praise to him, you highest heavens, and you waters which are over the heavens.
Psm148:14 He has put on high the horn of his people, for the praise of all his saints; even the children of Israel, a people which is near to him. Let the Lord be praised.
Psm149:1 Let the Lord be praised. Make a new song to the Lord, let his praise be in the meeting of his saints.
Psm149:2 Let Israel have joy in his maker; let the children of Zion be glad in their King.
Psm149:3 Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.
Psm149:5 Let the saints have joy and glory: let them give cries of joy on their beds.
Psm149:6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hands;
Psm149:8 To put their kings in chains, and their rulers in bands of iron;
Psm149:9 To give them the punishment which is in the holy writings: this honour is given to all his saints. Praise be to the Lord.
Psm150:1 Let the Lord be praised. Give praise to God in his holy place: give him praise in the heaven of his power.
Psm150:6 Let everything which has breath give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised.
Pro1:11 If they say, Come with us; let us make designs against the good, waiting secretly for the upright, without cause;
Pro1:12 Let us overcome them living, like the underworld, and in their strength, as those who go down to death;
Pro1:13 Goods of great price will be ours, our houses will be full of wealth;
Pro1:14 Take your chance with us, and we will all have one money-bag:
Pro1:15 My son, do not go with them; keep your feet from their ways:
Pro1:16 For their feet are running after evil, and they are quick to take a man's life.
Pro1:22 How long, you simple ones, will foolish things be dear to you? and pride a delight to the haters of authority? how long will the foolish go on hating knowledge?
Pro1:23 Be turned again by my sharp words: see, I will send the flow of my spirit on you, and make my words clear to you.
Pro1:24 Because your ears were shut to my voice; no one gave attention to my out-stretched hand;
Pro1:26 So in the day of your trouble I will be laughing; I will make sport of your fear;
Pro1:27 When your fear comes on you like a storm, and your trouble like a rushing wind; when pain and sorrow come on you.
Pro1:28 Then I will give no answer to their cries; searching for me early, they will not see me:
Pro1:29 For they were haters of knowledge, and did not give their hearts to the fear of the Lord:
Pro2:15 Whose ways are not straight, and whose footsteps are turned to evil:
Pro4:2 For I give you good teaching; do not give up the knowledge you are getting from me.
Pro4:17 The bread of evil-doing is their food, the wine of violent acts their drink.
Pro7:18 Come, let us take our pleasure in love till the morning, having joy in love's delights.
Pro8:4 I am crying out to you, O men; my voice comes to the sons of men.
Pro8:5 Become expert in reason, O you simple ones; you foolish ones, take training to heart.
Pro8:6 Give ear, for my words are true, and my lips are open to give out what is upright.
Pro8:10 Take my teaching, and not silver; get knowledge in place of the best gold.
Pro8:21 So that I may give my lovers wealth for their heritage, making their store-houses full.
Pro9:5 Come, take of my bread, and of my wine which is mixed.
Pro9:6 Give up the simple ones and have life, and go in the way of knowledge.
Pro19:7 All the brothers of the poor man are against him: how much more do his friends go far from him! ...
Pro20:26 A wise king puts evil-doers to flight, and makes their evil-doing come back on them.
Pro21:7 By their violent acts the evil-doers will be pulled away, because they have no desire to do what is right.
Pro23:11 For their saviour is strong, and he will take up their cause against you.
Pro23:20 Do not be among those who give themselves to wine-drinking, or among those who make themselves full with meat:
Pro24:1 Have no envy for evil men, or any desire to be with them:
Pro24:2 For the purposes of their hearts are destruction, and their lips are talking of trouble.
Pro24:22 For their downfall will come suddenly; and who has knowledge of the destruction of those in high positions?
Pro29:13 The poor man and his creditor come face to face: the Lord gives light to their eyes equally.
Pro29:16 When evil men are in power, wrongdoing is increased; but the upright will have pleasure when they see their downfall.
Pro30:5 Every word of God is tested: he is a breastplate to those who put their faith in him.

Isa26:18 We have been with child, we have been in pain, we have given birth to wind; no salvation has come to the earth through us, and no children have come into the world.
Isa26:20 Come, my people, into your secret places, and let your doors be shut: keep yourself safe for a short time, till his wrath is over.

Isa27:6 In days to come Jacob will take root: Israel will put out buds and flowers; and the face of the world will be full of fruit.
Isa27:7 Is his punishment like the punishment of those who overcame him? or are his dead as great in number as those he put to the sword?
Isa27:8 Your anger against her has been made clear by driving her away; he has taken her away with his storm-wind in the day of his east wind.

Isa27:13 And it will be in that day that a great horn will be sounded; and those who were wandering in the land of Assyria, and those who had been sent away into the land of Egypt, will come; and they will give worship to the Lord in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
Isa28:1 Ho! crown of pride of those who are given up to wine in Ephraim, and the dead flower of his glory which is on the head of those who are overcome by strong drink!
Isa28:7 And further, these are uncertain through wine, and have gone out of the right way through strong drink: the priest and the prophet are uncertain through strong drink, they are overcome by wine, they have gone out of the way through strong drink; their vision is false, they go wrong in their decisions.
Isa28:12 To whom he said, This is the rest, give rest to him who is tired; and by this you may get new strength; but they would not give ear.
Isa28:13 For this cause the word of the Lord will be to them rule after rule, line after line, here a little, there a little; so that they may go on their way, and falling back may be broken, and taken in the net.
Isa28:14 Give ear then to the word of the Lord, you men of pride, the rulers of this people in Jerusalem:
Isa28:15 Because you have said, We have made death our friend, and with the underworld we have made an agreement; when the overflowing waters come through they will not come near us; for we are looking to false words for help, taking cover in what is untrue:
Isa28:18 And the help you were looking for from death will come to nothing, and your agreement with the underworld will be broken; when the overflowing waters come through, then you will be overcome by them.
Isa28:19 Whenever they come through they will overtake you; for they will come through morning after morning, by day and by night: and the news will be nothing but fear.
Isa28:22 And now, take care that you do not make sport of him, or your bands will be made strong; for I have had word from the Lord, the Lord of armies, of an end, of a complete end, which is to come on all the land.
Isa28:23 Let your ears be open to my voice; give attention to what I say.
Isa29:9 Be surprised and full of wonder; let your eyes be covered and be blind: be overcome, but not with wine; go with uncertain steps, but not because of strong drink.
Isa29:10 For the Lord has sent on you a spirit of deep sleep; and by him your eyes, the prophets, are shut, and your heads, the seers, are covered.
Isa29:11 And the vision of all this has become to you like the words of a book which is shut, which men give to one who has knowledge of writing, saying, Make clear to us what is in the book: and he says, I am not able to, for the book is shut:
Isa29:13 And the Lord said, because this people come near to me with their mouths, and give honour to me with their lips, but their heart is far from me, and their fear of me is false, a rule given them by the teaching of men;
Isa29:14 For this cause I will again do a strange thing among this people, a thing to be wondered at: and the wisdom of their wise men will come to nothing, and the sense of their guides will no longer be seen.
Isa29:15 Cursed are those who go deep to keep their designs secret from the Lord, and whose works are in the dark, and who say, Who sees us? and who has knowledge of our acts?
Isa29:16 You are turning things upside down! Is the wet earth the same to you as the one who is forming it? will the thing made say of him who made it, He made me not: or the thing formed say of him who gave it form, He has no knowledge?
Isa29:21 Who give help to a man in a wrong cause, and who put a net for the feet of him who gives decisions in the public place, taking away a man's right without cause.
Isa29:23 But when they, the children of Jacob, see the work of my hands among them, they will give honour to my name; yes, they will give honour to the Holy One of Jacob, and go in fear of the God of Israel.
Isa30:1 Ho! uncontrolled children, says the Lord, who give effect to a purpose which is not mine, and who make an agreement, but not by my spirit, increasing their sin:
Isa30:3 And the strength of Pharaoh will be your shame, and your hope in the shade of Egypt will come to nothing.
Isa30:4 For his chiefs are at Zoan, and his representatives have come to Hanes.
Isa30:5 For they have all come with offerings to a people of no use to them, in whom is no help or profit, but only shame and a bad name.
Isa30:6 The word about the Beasts of the South. Through the land of trouble and grief, the land of the she-lion and the voice of the lion, of the snake and the burning winged snake, they take their wealth on the backs of young asses, and their stores on camels, to a people in whom is no profit.
Isa30:8 Now go, put it in writing before them on a board, and make a record of it in a book, so that it may be for the future, a witness for all time to come.
Isa30:9 For they are an uncontrolled people, false-hearted, who will not give ear to the teaching of the Lord:
Isa30:10 Who say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Do not give us word of what is true, but say false things to give us pleasure:
Isa30:11 Get out of the good way, turning from the right road; do not keep the Holy One of Israel before our minds.
Isa30:12 For this cause the Holy One of Israel says, Because you will not give ear to this word, and are looking for help in ways of deceit and evil, and are putting your hope in them:
Isa30:13 This sin will be to you like a crack in a high wall, causing its fall suddenly and in a minute.
Isa30:15 For the Lord, the Holy One of Israel, said, In quiet and rest is your salvation: peace and hope are your strength: but you would not have it so.
Isa30:16 Saying, No, for we will go in flight on horses; so you will certainly go in flight: and, We will go on the backs of quick-running beasts; so those who go after you will be quick-footed.
Isa30:17 A thousand will go in fear before one; even before five you will go in flight: till you are like a pillar by itself on the top of a mountain, and like a flag on a hill.
Isa30:18 For this cause the Lord will be waiting, so that he may be kind to you; and he will be lifted up, so that he may have mercy on you; for the Lord is a God of righteousness: there is a blessing on all whose hope is in him.
Isa30:29 You will have a song, as in the night when a holy feast is kept; and you will be glad in heart, as when they go with music of the pipe to the mountain of the Lord, the Rock of Israel.
Isa31:3 For the Egyptians are men, and not God; and their horses are flesh, and not spirit: and when the Lord's hand is stretched out, the helper and he who is helped will come down together.
Isa31:4 For the Lord has said to me, As a lion, or a young lion, makes an angry noise over his food, and if a band of herdsmen come out against him, he will not be in fear of their voices, or give up his food for their noise: so the Lord of armies will come down to make war against Mount Zion and its hill.
Isa31:6 Come back to him who has been so deeply sinned against by the children of Israel.

Isa33:11 Your designs will be without profit, and their effect will be nothing: you will be burned up by the fire of my breath.
Isa33:13 Give ear, you who are far off, to what I have done: see my power, you who are near.
Isa33:14 The sinners in Zion are full of fear; the haters of God are shaking with wonder. Who among us may keep his place before the burning fire? who among us may see the eternal burnings?

Isa33:21 But there the Lord will be with us in his glory, ... wide rivers and streams; where no boat will go with blades, and no fair ship will be sailing.
Isa33:22 For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our law-giver, the Lord is our king; he will be our saviour.

Isa34:7 And the strong oxen will go down to death together with the smaller cattle.
Isa34:16 See what is recorded in the book of the Lord: all these will be there, not one without the other: the mouth of the Lord has given the order, and his spirit has made them come together.
Isa34:17 And he has given them their heritage, and by his hand it has been measured out to them: it will be theirs for ever, their resting-place from generation to generation.
Isa35:2 It will be flowering like the rose; it will be full of delight and songs; the glory of Lebanon will be given to it; the pride of Carmel and Sharon: they will see the glory of the Lord, the power of our God.
Isa35:3 Make strong the feeble hands, give support to the shaking knees.
Isa35:4 Say to those who are full of fear, Be strong and take heart: see, your God will give punishment; the reward of God will come; he himself will come to be your saviour.
Isa35:10 Even those whom he has made free, will come back again; they will come with songs to Zion; on their heads will be eternal joy; delight and joy will be theirs, and sorrow and sounds of grief will be gone for ever.
Isa36:4 And the Rab-shakeh said to them, Say now to Hezekiah, These are the words of the great king, the king of Assyria: In what are you placing your hope?
Isa36:7 And if you say to me, Our hope is in the Lord our God; is it not he whose high places and altars Hezekiah has taken away, saying to Judah and Jerusalem that worship may only be given before this altar?
Isa36:11 Then Eliakim and Shebna and Joah said to the Rab-shakeh, Please make use of the Aramaean language in talking to your servants, for we are used to it, and do not make use of the Jews' language in the hearing of the people on the wall.
Isa36:12 But the Rab-shakeh said, Is it to your master or to you that my master has sent me to say these words? has he not sent me to the men seated on the wall? for they are the people who will be short of food with you when the town is shut in.
Isa36:13 Then the Rab-shakeh got up and said with a loud voice in the Jews' language, Give ear to the words of the great king, the king of Assyria:
Isa36:14 This is what the king says: Do not be tricked by Hezekiah, for there is no salvation for you in him.
Isa36:15 And do not let Hezekiah make you put your faith in the Lord, saying, The Lord will certainly keep us safe, and this town will not be given into the hands of the king of Assyria.
Isa36:16 Do not give ear to Hezekiah, for this is what the king of Assyria says, Make peace with me, and come out to me; and everyone will be free to take the fruit of his vine and of his fig-tree, and the water of his spring;
Isa36:17 Till I come and take you away to a land like yours, a land of grain and wine, a land of bread and vine-gardens.
Isa36:18 Give no attention to Hezekiah when he says to you, The Lord will keep us safe. Has any one of the gods of the nations kept his land from falling into the hands of the king of Assyria?
Isa36:19 Where are the gods of Hamath and of Arpad? where are the gods of Sepharvaim? where are the gods of Samaria? and have they kept Samaria out of my hand?

Isa37:27 This is why their townsmen had no power, they were broken and put to shame; they were like the grass of the field, or a green plant; like the grass on the house-tops, which a cold wind makes waste.

Isa38:20 O Lord, quickly be my saviour; so we will make my songs to corded instruments all the days of our lives in the house of the Lord.
Isa39:2 And Hezekiah was glad at their coming, and let them see all his store of wealth, the silver and the gold and the spices and the oil, and all the house of his arms, and everything there was in his stores: there was nothing in all his house or his kingdom which he did not let them see.

Isa40:24 They have only now been planted, and their seed put into the earth, and they have only now taken root, when he sends out his breath over them and they become dry, and the storm-wind takes them away like dry grass.
Isa40:25 Who then seems to you to be my equal? says the Holy One.
Isa40:26 Let your eyes be lifted up on high, and see: who has made these? He who sends out their numbered army: who has knowledge of all their names: by whose great strength, because he is strong in power, all of them are in their places.
Isa40:31 But those who are waiting for the Lord will have new strength; they will get wings like eagles: running, they will not be tired, and walking, they will have no weariness.

Isa41:2 Who sent out from the east one who is right wherever he goes? he gives the nations into his hands, and makes him ruler over kings; he gives them as the dust to his sword, as dry stems before the wind to his bow.
Isa41:3 He goes after them safely, not touching the road with his feet.
Isa41:6 They gave help everyone to his neighbour; and everyone said to his brother, Take heart!
Isa41:12 You will make search for your haters but they will not be there; those who make war against you will be as nothing and will come to destruction.

Isa41:21 Put forward your cause, says the Lord; let your strong argument come out, says the King of Jacob.
Isa41:22 Let the future be made clear to us: give us news of the past things, so that we may give thought to them; or of the things to come, so that we may see if they are true.
Isa41:23 Give us word of what will be after this, so that we may be certain that you are gods: yes, do good or do evil, so that we may all see it and be surprised.
Isa41:24 But you are nothing, and your work is of no value: foolish is he who takes you for his gods.
Isa41:26 Who has given knowledge of it from the first, so that we may be certain of it? and from the start, so that we may say, His word is true? There is no one who gives news, or says anything, or who gives ear to your words.
Isa41:28 And I saw that there was no man, even no wise man among them, who might give an answer to my questions.
Isa41:29 Truly they are all nothing, their works are nothing and of no value: their metal images are of no more use than wind.
Isa42:9 See, the things said before have come about, and now I give word of new things: before they come I give you news of them.
Isa42:12 Let them give glory to the Lord, sounding his praise in the sea-lands.
Isa42:16 And I will take the blind by a way of which they had no knowledge, guiding them by roads strange to them: I will make the dark places light before them, and the rough places level. These things will I do and will not give them up.

Isa42:18 Give ear, you whose ears are shut; and let your eyes be open, you blind, so that you may see.
Isa42:22 But this is a people whose property has been taken away from them by force; they are all taken in holes, and shut up in prisons: they are made prisoners, and no one makes them free; they are taken by force and no one says, Give them back.
Isa42:23 Who is there among you who will give ear to this? who will give attention to it for the time to come?
Isa42:24 Who gave up Jacob to those who took away his goods, and Israel to his attackers? Did not the Lord? he against whom they did wrong, and in whose ways they would not go, turning away from his teaching.
Isa43:9 Let all the nations come together, and let the peoples be present: who among them is able to make this clear, and give us word of earlier things? let their witnesses come forward, so that they may be seen to be true, and that they may give ear, and say, It is true.
Isa43:10 You are my witnesses, says the Lord, and my servant whom I have taken for myself: so that you may see and have faith in me, and that it may be clear to you that I am he; before me there was no God formed, and there will not be after me.

Isa51:12 I, even I, am your comforter: are you so poor in heart as to be in fear of man who will come to an end, and of the son of man who will be like grass?
Isa51:23 And I will put it into the hand of your cruel masters, and of those whose yoke has been hard on you; who have said to your soul, Down on your face! so that we may go over you: and you have given your backs like the earth, even like the street, for them to go over.
Isa52:3 For the Lord says, You were given for nothing, and you will be made free without price.
Isa52:4 For the Lord God says, My people went down at first into Egypt, to get a place for themselves there: and the Assyrian put a cruel yoke on them without cause.
Isa52:5 Now then, what have I here? says the Lord, for my people are taken away without cause; they are made waste and give cries of sorrow, says the Lord, and all the day the nations put shame on my name.
Isa52:6 For this cause I will make my name clear to my people; in that day they will be certain that it is my word which comes to them; see, here am I.
Isa52:8 The voice of your watchmen! their voices are loud in song together; for they will see him, eye to eye, when the Lord comes back to Zion.

Isa52:11 Away! away! go out from there, touching no unclean thing; go out from among her; be clean, you who take up the vessels of the Lord.
Isa52:12 For you will not go out suddenly, and you will not go in flight: for the Lord will go before you, and the God of Israel will come after you to keep you.
Isa52:15 So will nations give him honour; kings will keep quiet because of him: for what had not been made clear to them they will see; and they will give their minds to what had not come to their ears.
Isa53:1 Who would have had faith in the word which has come to our ears, and to whom had the arm of the Lord been unveiled?
Isa53:2 For his growth was like that of a delicate plant before him, and like a root out of a dry place: he had no grace of form, to give us pleasure;
Isa53:3 Men made sport of him, turning away from him; he was a man of sorrows, marked by disease; and like one from whom men's faces are turned away, he was looked down on, and we put no value on him.
Isa53:4 But it was our pain he took, and our diseases were put on him: while to us he seemed as one diseased, on whom God's punishment had come.
Isa53:5 But it was for our sins he was wounded, and for our evil doings he was crushed: he took the punishment by which we have peace, and by his wounds we are made well.
Isa53:6 We all went wandering like sheep; going every one of us after his desire; and the Lord put on him the punishment of us all.
Isa53:11 ... made clear his righteousness before men ... had taken their sins on himself.
Isa54:17 No instrument of war which is formed against you will be of any use; and every tongue which says evil against you will be judged false. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness comes from me, says the Lord.
Isa55:1 Ho! everyone in need, come to the waters, and he who has no strength, let him get food: come, get bread without money; wine and milk without price.
Isa55:2 Why do you give your money for what is not bread, and the fruit of your work for what will not give you pleasure? Give ear to me, so that your food may be good, and you may have the best in full measure.
Isa55:3 Give ear, and come to me, take note with care, so that your souls may have life: and I will make an eternal agreement with you, even the certain mercies of David.
Isa55:7 Let the sinner give up his way, and the evil-doer his purpose: and let him come back to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for there is full forgiveness with him.
Isa55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, or your ways my ways, says the Lord.
Isa55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isa55:12 For you will go out with joy, and be guided in peace: the mountains and the hills will make melody before you, and all the trees of the fields will make sounds of joy.
Isa56:1 The Lord says, Let your way of life be upright, and let your behaviour be rightly ordered: for my salvation is near, and my righteousness will quickly be seen.
Isa56:5 I will give to them in my house, and inside my walls, a place and a name better than that of sons and daughters; I will give them an eternal name which will not be cut off.
Isa56:7 I will make them come to my holy mountain, and will give them joy in my house of prayer; I will take pleasure in the burned offerings which they make on my altar: for my house will be named a house of prayer for all peoples.
Isa56:8 The Lord God, who gets together the wandering ones of Israel, says, I will get together others in addition to those of Israel who have come back.
Isa56:12 Come, they say, I will get wine, and we will take strong drink in full measure; and tomorrow will be like today, full of pleasure.
Isa57:2 They are at rest in their last resting-places, every one going straight before him.
Isa57:3 But come near, you sons of her who is wise in secret arts, the seed of her who is false to her husband, and of the loose woman.
Isa57:4 Of whom do you make sport? against whom is your mouth open wide and your tongue put out? are you not uncontrolled children, a false seed,
Isa57:5 You who are burning with evil desire among the oaks, under every green tree; putting children to death in the valleys, under the cracks of the rocks?
Isa57:8 And on the back of the doors and on the pillars you have put your sign: for you have been false to me with another; you have made your bed wide, and made an agreement with them; you had a desire for their bed where you saw it
Isa57:13 Your false gods will not keep you safe in answer to your cry; but the wind will take them, they will be gone like a breath: but he who puts his hope in me will take the land, and will have my holy mountain as his heritage.
Isa57:14 And I will say, Make it high, make it high, get ready the way, take the stones out of the way of my people.
Isa58:1 Make a loud cry, do not be quiet, let your voice be sounding like a horn, and make clear to my people their evil doings, and to the family of Jacob their sins.
Isa58:2 Though they make prayer to me every day, and take pleasure in the knowledge of my ways: like a nation which has done righteousness, and has not given up the rules of their God, they make requests to me for the right orders, it is their delight to come near to God.
Isa58:3 They say, Why have we kept ourselves from food, and you do not see it? why have we kept ourselves from pleasure, and you take no note of it? If, in the days when you keep from food, you take the chance to do your business, and get in your debts;
Isa58:4 If keeping from food makes you quickly angry, ready for fighting and giving blows with evil hands; your holy days are not such as to make your voice come to my ears on high.
Isa59:2 But your sins have come between you and your God, and by your evil doings his face has been veiled from you, so that he will give you no answer.
Isa59:3 For your hands are unclean with blood, and your fingers with sin; your lips have said false things, and your tongue gives out deceit.
Isa59:5 They give birth to snake's eggs, and make spider's threads: whoever takes their eggs for food comes to his death, and the egg which is crushed becomes a poison-snake.
Isa59:6 Their twisted threads will not make clothing, and their works will give them nothing for covering themselves: their works are works of sin, and violent acts are in their hands.
Isa59:7 Their feet go quickly to evil, and they take delight in the death of the upright; their thoughts are thoughts of sin; wasting and destruction are in their ways.
Isa59:8 They have no knowledge of the way of peace, and there is no sense of what is right in their behaviour: they have made for themselves ways which are not straight; whoever goes in them has no knowledge of peace.
Isa59:9 For this cause our right is far from us, and righteousness does not overtake us: we are looking for light, but there is only the dark; for the shining of the sun, but our way is in the night.
Isa59:10 We go on our way, like blind men feeling for the wall, even like those who have no eyes: we are running against things in daylight as if it was evening; our place is in the dark like dead men.
Isa59:11 We make noises of grief, like bears, and sad sounds like doves: we are looking for our right, but it is not there; for salvation, but it is far from us.
Isa59:12 For our evil doings are increased before you, and our sins give witness against us: for our evil doings are with us, and we have knowledge of our sins:
Isa59:13 We have gone against the Lord, and been false to him, turning away from our God, our words have been uncontrolled, and in our hearts are thoughts of deceit.
Isa59:21 And as for me, this is my agreement with them, says the Lord: my spirit which is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, will not go away from your mouth, or from the mouth of your seed, or from the mouth of your seed's seed, says the Lord, from now and for ever.
Isa60:9 Vessels of the sea-lands are waiting for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, so that your sons may come from far, and their silver and gold with them, to the place of the name of the Lord your God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he has made you beautiful.
Isa60:10 And men from strange countries will be building up your walls, and their kings will be your servants: for in my wrath I sent punishment on you, but in my grace I have had mercy on you.
Isa60:11 Your doors will be open at all times; they will not be shut day or night; so that men may come into you with the wealth of the nations, with their kings at their head.
Isa60:14 And the sons of those who were cruel to you will come before you with bent heads; and those who made sport of you will go down on their faces at your feet; and you will be named, The Town of the Lord, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
Isa61:2 To give knowledge that the year of the Lord's good pleasure has come, and the day of punishment from our God; to give comfort to all who are sad;
Isa61:3 To give them a fair head-dress in place of dust, the oil of joy in place of the clothing of grief, praise in place of sorrow; so that they may be named trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, and so that he may have glory.
Isa61:4 And they will be building again the old broken walls, and will make new the old waste places, and will put up again the towns which have been waste for long generations.
Isa61:5 And men from strange countries will be your herdsmen, and those who are not Israelites will be your ploughmen and vine-keepers.
Isa61:6 But you will be named the priests of the Lord, the servants of our God: you will have the wealth of the nations for your food, and you will be clothed with their glory.
Isa61:7 As they had twice as much grief, and marks of shame were their heritage, so in their land they will be rewarded twice over, and will have eternal joy.
Isa61:9 And their seed will be noted among the nations, and their offspring among the peoples: it will be clear to all who see them that they are the seed to which the Lord has given his blessing.
Isa62:6 I have put watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem; they will not keep quiet day or night: you who are the Lord's recorders, take no rest,
Isa62:10 Go through, go through the doors; make ready the way of the people; let the highway be lifted up; let the stones be taken away; let a flag be lifted up over the peoples.
Isa62:12 And they will be named, The holy people, Those whose cause has been taken up by the Lord: and you will be named, Desired, A town not given up.
Isa63:3 I have been crushing the grapes by myself, and of the peoples there was no man with me: in my wrath and in my passion, they were crushed under my feet; and my robes are marked with their life-blood, and all my clothing is red.
Isa63:6 And in my passion the peoples were crushed under my feet, and broken in my wrath, and I put down their strength to the earth.
Isa63:7 I will give news of the mercies of the Lord, and his great acts, even all the things the Lord has done for us, in his great grace to the house of Israel; even all he has done for us in his unnumbered mercies.
Isa63:8 For he said, Truly they are my people, children who will not be false: so he was their saviour out of all their trouble.
Isa63:9 It was no sent one or angel, but he himself who was their saviour: in his love and in his pity he took up their cause, and he took them in his arms, caring for them all through the years.
Isa63:10 But they went against him, causing grief to his holy spirit: so he was turned against them, and made war on them.
Isa63:11 Then the early days came to their minds, the days of Moses his servant: and they said, Where is he who made the keeper of his flock come up from the sea? where is he who put his holy spirit among them,
Isa63:12 He who made the arm of his glory go at the right hand of Moses, by whom the waters were parted before them, to make himself an eternal name;
Isa63:13 He who made them go through the deep waters, like a horse in the waste land?
Isa63:14 Like the cattle which go down into the valley, they went without falling, the spirit of the Lord guiding them: so you went before your people, to make yourself a great name.
Isa63:15 Let your eyes be looking down from heaven, from your holy and beautiful house: where is your deep feeling, the working of your power? do not keep back the moving of your pity and your mercies:
Isa63:16 For you are our father, though Abraham has no knowledge of us, and Israel gives no thought to us: you, O Lord, are our father; from the earliest days you have taken up our cause.
Isa63:17 O Lord, why do you send us wandering from your ways, making our hearts hard, so that we have no fear of you? Come back, because of your servants, the tribes of your heritage.
Isa63:18 Why have evil men gone over your holy place, so that it has been crushed under the feet of our haters?
Isa63:19 We have become as those who were never ruled by you, on whom your name was not named.
Isa64:3 The ear has not had news of, or the eye seen, ... any God but you, working for the man who is waiting for him.
Isa64:5 For we have all become like an unclean person, and all our good acts are like a dirty robe: and we have all become old like a dead leaf, and our sins, like the wind, take us away.
Isa64:6 And there is no one who makes prayer to your name, or who is moved to keep true to you: for your face is veiled from us, and you have given us into the power of our sins.
Isa64:7 But now, O Lord, you are our father; we are the earth, and you are our maker; and we are all the work of your hand.
Isa64:8 Be not very angry, O Lord, and do not keep our sins in mind for ever: give ear to our prayer, for we are all your people.
Isa64:9 Your holy towns have become a waste, Zion has become a waste, Jerusalem is a mass of broken walls.
Isa64:11 In view of all this, will you still do nothing, O Lord? will you keep quiet, and go on increasing our punishment?
Isa65:1 I have been ready to give an answer to those who did not make prayer to me; I have been offering myself to those who were not searching for me; I said, Here am I, here am I, to a nation which gave no respect to my name.
Isa65:2 All day my hands have been stretched out to an uncontrolled people, who go in an evil way, after the purposes of their hearts;
Isa65:3 A people who make me angry every day, making offerings in gardens, and burning perfumes on bricks.
Isa65:5 Who say, Keep away, do not come near me, for fear that I make you holy: these are a smoke in my nose, a fire burning all day.
Isa65:7 For their sins and the sins of their fathers, who were burning perfumes on the mountains, and saying evil things against me on the hills: so I will take the measure of their sins, and will send the punishment for them into their breast.
Isa65:9 And I will take a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah one who will have my mountains for a heritage: and the people I have taken to be mine will have it for themselves, and my servants will have their resting-place there.
Isa65:12 Your fate will be the sword, and you will all go down to death: because when my voice came to you, you made no answer; you did not give ear to my word; but you did what was evil in my eyes, desiring what was not pleasing to me.
Isa65:13 For this cause says the Lord God, My servants will have food, but you will be in need of food: my servants will have drink, but you will be dry: my servants will have joy, but you will be shamed:
Isa65:14 My servants will make songs in the joy of their hearts, but you will be crying for sorrow, and making sounds of grief from a broken spirit.
Isa65:15 And your name will become a curse to my people, and the Lord God will put you to death, and give his servants another name:
Isa65:16 So that he who is requesting a blessing will make use of the name of the true God, and he who takes an oath will do so by the true God; because the past troubles are gone out of mind, and because they are covered from my eyes.
Isa65:19 And I will be glad over Jerusalem, and have joy in my people: and the voice of weeping will no longer be sounding in her, or the voice of grief.
Isa65:22 They will no longer be building for the use of others, or planting for others to have the fruit: for the days of my people will be like the days of a tree, and my loved ones will have joy in full measure in the work of their hands.
Isa65:23 Their work will not be for nothing, and they will not give birth to children for destruction; for they are a seed to whom the Lord has given his blessing, and their offspring will be with them.
Isa65:24 And before they make their request I will give an answer, and while they are still making prayer to me, I will give ear.
Isa65:25 The wolf and the lamb will take their food together, and the lion will make a meal of grass like the ox: but dust will be the snake's food. There will be no cause of pain or destruction in all my holy mountain, says the Lord.
Isa66:2 For all these things my hand has made, and they are mine, says the Lord; but to this man only will I give attention, to him who is poor and broken in spirit, fearing my word.
Isa66:5 Give ear to the word of the Lord, you who are in fear at his word: your countrymen, hating you, and driving you out because of my name, have said, Let the Lord's glory be made clear, so that we may see your joy; but they will be put to shame.
Isa66:6 There is a noise of war from the town, a sound from the Temple, the voice of the Lord giving punishment to his haters.
Isa66:11 So that you may take of the comfort flowing from her breasts, and be delighted with the full measure of her glory.
Isa66:12 For the Lord says, See, I will make her peace like a river, and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream, and she will take her children in her arms, gently caring for them on her knees.
Isa66:13 As to one who is comforted by his mother, so will I give you comfort: and you will be comforted in Jerusalem.
Isa66:14 And you will see it and your heart will be glad, and your bones will get new strength, like young grass: and the hand of the Lord will be seen at work for his servants, and his wrath against his haters.
Isa66:15 For the Lord is coming with fire, and his war-carriages will be like the storm-wind; to give punishment in the heat of his wrath, and his passion is like flames of fire.
Isa66:18 And I am coming to get together all nations and tongues: and they will come and will see my glory.
Isa66:19 And I will put a sign among them, and I will send those who are still living to the nations, to Tarshish, Put, and Lud, Meshech and Rosh, Tubal and Javan, to the sea-lands far away, who have not had word of me, or seen my glory; and they will give the knowledge of my glory to the nations.
Isa66:20 And they will take your countrymen out of all the nations for an offering to the Lord, on horses, and in carriages, and in carts, and on asses, and on camels, to my holy mountain Jerusalem, says the Lord, as the children of Israel take their offering in a clean vessel into the house of the Lord.
Isa66:21 And some of them will I take for priests and Levites, says the Lord.
Isa66:22 For as the new heaven and the new earth which I will make will be for ever before me, says the Lord, so will your seed and your name be for ever.
Isa66:23 And it will be, that from new moon to new moon, and from Sabbath to Sabbath, all flesh will come to give worship before me, says the Lord.
Jer1:1 The words of Jeremiah, the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin:
Jer1:2 To whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his rule.
Jer1:8 Have no fear because of them: for I am with you, to keep you safe, says the Lord.
Jer1:15 For see, I will send for all the families of the kingdoms of the north, says the Lord; and they will come, everyone placing his high seat at the way into Jerusalem, and against its walls on every side, and against all the towns of Judah.
Jer1:16 And I will give my decision against them on account of all their evil-doing; because they have given me up, burning perfumes to other gods and worshipping the works of their hands.
Jer1:17 So make yourself ready, and go and say to them everything I give you orders to say: do not be overcome by fear of them, or I will send fear on you before them.
Jer1:19 They will be fighting against you, but they will not overcome you: for I am with you, says the Lord, to give you salvation.
Jer2:3 Israel was holy to the Lord, the first-fruits of his increase: all who made attacks on him were judged as wrongdoers, evil came on them, says the Lord.
Jer2:4 Give ear to the words of the Lord, O sons of Jacob and all the families of Israel:
Jer2:5 These are the words of the Lord: What evil have your fathers seen in me that they have gone far from me, and, walking after what is false, have become false?
Jer2:6 And they never said, Where is the Lord, who took us up out of the land of Egypt; who was our guide through the waste of sand, through an unplanted land full of deep holes, through a dry land of deep shade, which no one went through and where no man was living?
Jer2:7 And I took you into a fertile land, where you were living on its fruit and its wealth; but when you came in, you made my land unclean, and made my heritage a disgusting thing.
Jer2:9 For this reason, I will again put forward my cause against you, says the Lord, even against you and against your children's children.
Jer2:10 For go over to the sea-lands of Kittim and see; send to Kedar and give deep thought to it; and see if there has ever been such a thing.
Jer2:11 Has any nation ever made a change in their gods, though they are no gods? but my people have given up their glory in exchange for what is of no profit.
Jer2:25 Do not let your foot be without shoes, or your throat dry from need of water: but you said, There is no hope: no, for I have been a lover of strange gods, and after them I will go.
Jer2:26 As the thief is shamed when he is taken, so is Israel shamed; they, their kings and their rulers, their priests and their prophets;
Jer2:27 Who say to a tree, You are my father; and to a stone, You have given me life: for their backs have been turned to me, not their faces: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Up! and be our saviour.
Jer2:28 But where are the gods you have made for yourselves? let them come, if they are able to give you salvation in the time of your trouble: for the number of your gods is as the number of your towns, O Judah.
Jer2:29 Why will you put forward your cause against me? You have all done evil against me, says the Lord.
Jer2:30 I gave your children blows to no purpose; they got no good from training: your sword has been the destruction of your prophets, like a death-giving lion.
Jer2:31 O generation, see the word of the Lord. Have I been a waste land to Israel? or a land of dark night? why do my people say, We have got loose, we will not come to you again?
Jer2:33 With what care are your ways ordered when you are looking for love! so ... your ways.
Jer2:34 And in the skirts of your robe may be seen the life-blood of those who have done no wrong: ...
Jer2:37 Truly, you will go out from him with your hands on your head: for the Lord has given up those in whom you have put your faith, and they will be of no help to you.
Jer3:12 Go, and give out these words to the north, and say, Come back, O Israel, though you have been turned away from me, says the Lord; my face will not be against you in wrath: for I am full of mercy, says the Lord, I will not be angry for ever.
Jer3:14 Come back, O children who are turned away, says the Lord; for I am a husband to you, and I will take you, one from a town and two from a family, and will make you come to Zion;
Jer3:15 And I will give you keepers, pleasing to my heart, who will give you your food with knowledge and wisdom.
Jer3:16 And it will come about, when your numbers are increased in the land, in those days, says the Lord, that they will no longer say, The ark of the agreement of the Lord: it will not come into their minds, they will not have any memory of it, or be conscious of the loss of it, and it will not be made again.
Jer3:17 At that time Jerusalem will be named the seat of the Lord's kingdom; and all the nations will come together to it, to the name of the Lord, to Jerusalem: and no longer will their steps be guided by the purposes of their evil hearts.
Jer3:18 In those days the family of Judah will go with the family of Israel, and they will come together out of the land of the north into the land which I gave for a heritage to your fathers.
Jer3:19 But I said, How am I to put you among the children, and give you a desired land, a heritage of glory among the armies of the nations? and I said, You are to say to me, My father; and not be turned away from me.
Jer3:20 Truly, as a wife is false to her husband, so have you been false to me, O Israel, says the Lord.
Jer3:21 A voice is sounding on the open hilltops, the weeping and the prayers of the children of Israel; because their way is twisted, they have not kept the Lord their God in mind.
Jer3:22 Come back, you children who have been turned away, and I will take away your desire for wandering. See, we have come to you, for you are the Lord our God.
Jer3:23 Truly, the hills, and the noise of an army on the mountains, are a false hope: truly, in the Lord our God is the salvation of Israel.
Jer3:24 But the Baal has taken all the work of our fathers from our earliest days; their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.
Jer3:25 Let us be stretched on the earth in our downfall, covering ourselves with our shame: for we have been sinners against the Lord our God, we and our fathers, from our earliest years even till this day: and we have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God.
Jer4:3 For this is what the Lord says to the men of Judah and to Jerusalem: Get your unworked land ploughed up, do not put in your seeds among thorns.
Jer4:4 Undergo a circumcision of the heart, you men of Judah and people of Jerusalem: or my wrath may come out like fire, burning so that no one is able to put it out, because of the evil of your doings.
Jer4:5 Say openly in Judah, give it out in Jerusalem, and say, Let the horn be sounded in the land: crying out in a loud voice, Come together, and let us go into the walled towns.
Jer4:8 For this put on haircloth, with weeping and loud crying: for the burning wrath of the Lord is not turned back from us.
Jer4:10 Then said I, Ah, Lord God! your words were not true when you said to this people and to Jerusalem, You will have peace; when the sword has come even to the soul.
Jer4:12 A full wind will come for me: and now I will give my decision against them.
Jer4:13 See, he will come up like the clouds, and his war-carriages like the storm-wind: his horses are quicker than eagles. Sorrow is ours, for destruction has come on us.
Jer4:16 Make this come to the minds of the nations, make a statement openly against Jerusalem, that attackers are coming from a far country and their voices will be loud against the towns of Judah.
Jer4:17 Like keepers of a field they are against her on every side; because she has been fighting against me, says the Lord.
Jer4:22 For my people are foolish, they have no knowledge of me; they are evil-minded children, without sense, all of them: they are wise in evil-doing, but have no knowledge of doing good.
Jer5:1 Go quickly through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and get knowledge, and make a search in her wide places if there is a man, if there is one in her who is upright, who keeps faith; and she will have my forgiveness.
Jer5:3 O Lord, do not your eyes see good faith? you have given them punishment, but they were not troubled; you have sent destruction on them, but they did not take your teaching to heart: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they would not come back.
Jer5:4 Then I said, But these are the poor: they are foolish, for they have no knowledge of the way of the Lord or of the behaviour desired by their God.
Jer5:5 I will go to the great men and have talk with them; for they have knowledge of the way of the Lord and of the behaviour desired by their God. But as for these, their one purpose is a broken yoke and burst bands.
Jer5:6 And so a lion from the woods will put them to death, a wolf of the waste land will make them waste, a leopard will keep watch on their towns, and everyone who goes out from them will be food for the beasts; because of the great number of their sins and the increase of their wrongdoing.
Jer5:7 How is it possible for you to have my forgiveness for this? your children have given me up, taking their oaths by those who are no gods: when I had given them food in full measure, they were false to their wives, taking their pleasure in the houses of loose women.
Jer5:8 They were full of desire, like horses after a meal of grain: everyone went after his neighbour's wife.
Jer5:10 Go up against her vines and make waste; let the destruction be complete: take away her branches, for they are not the Lord's.
Jer5:12 They would have nothing to do with the Lord, saying, He will do nothing, and no evil will come to us; we will not see the sword or be short of food:
Jer5:13 And the prophets will become wind, and the word is not in them; so it will be done to them.
Jer5:14 For this reason the Lord, the God of armies, has said: Because you have said this, I will make my words in your mouth a fire, and this people wood, and they will be burned up by it.
Jer5:15 See, I will send you a nation from far away, O people of Israel, says the Lord; a strong nation and an old nation, a nation whose language is strange to you, so that you may not get the sense of their words.
Jer5:16 Their arrows give certain death, they are all men of war.
Jer5:17 They will take all the produce of your fields, which would have been food for your sons and your daughters: they will take your flocks and your herds: they will take all your vines and your fig-trees: and with the sword they will make waste your walled towns in which you put your faith.
Jer5:18 But even in those days, says the Lord, I will not let your destruction be complete.
Jer5:19 And it will come about, when you say, Why has the Lord our God done all these things to us? that you will say to them, As you gave me up, making yourselves servants to strange gods in your land, so will you be servants to strange men in a land which is not yours.
Jer5:21 Give ear now to this, O foolish people without sense; who have eyes but see nothing, and ears without the power of hearing:
Jer5:22 Have you no fear of me? says the Lord; will you not be shaking with fear before me, who have put the sand as a limit for the sea, by an eternal order, so that it may not go past it? and though it is ever in motion, it is not able to have its way; though the sound of its waves is loud, they are not able to go past it.
Jer5:23 But the heart of this people is uncontrolled and turned away from me; they are broken loose and gone.
Jer5:24 And they do not say in their hearts, Now let us give worship to our God, who gives the rain, the winter and the spring rain, at the right time; who keeps for us the ordered weeks of the grain-cutting.
Jer5:25 Through your evil-doing these things have been turned away, and your sins have kept back good from you.
Jer5:26 For there are sinners among my people: they keep watch, like men watching for birds; they put a net and take men in it.
Jer5:27 As the fowl-house is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: for this reason they have become great and have got wealth.
Jer5:28 They have become fat and strong: they have gone far in works of evil: they give no support to the cause of the child without a father, so that they may do well; they do not see that the poor man gets his rights.
Jer5:31 The prophets give false words and the priests give decisions by their direction; and my people are glad to have it so: and what will you do in the end?
Jer6:1 Go in flight out of Jerusalem, so that you may be safe, you children of Benjamin, and let the horn be sounded in Tekoa, and the flag be lifted up on Beth-haccherem: for evil is looking out from the north, and a great destruction.
Jer6:3 Keepers of sheep with their flocks will come to her; they will put up their tents round her; everyone will get food in his place.
Jer6:4 Make war ready against her; up! let us go up when the sun is high. Sorrow is ours! for the day is turned and the shades of evening are stretched out.
Jer6:5 Up! let us go up by night, and send destruction on her great houses.
Jer6:6 For this is what the Lord of armies has said: Let trees be cut down and an earthwork be placed against Jerusalem: sorrow on the false town! inside her there is nothing but cruel ways.
Jer6:10 To whom am I to give word, witnessing so that they may take note? see, their ears are stopped, and they are not able to give attention: see, the word of the Lord has been a cause of shame to them, they have no delight in it.
Jer6:12 And their houses will be handed over to others, their fields and their wives together: for my hand will be stretched out against the people of the land, says the Lord.
Jer6:13 For from the least of them even to the greatest, everyone is given up to getting money; from the prophet even to the priest, everyone is working deceit.
Jer6:14 And they have made little of the wounds of my people, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
Jer6:15 Let them be put to shame because they have done disgusting things. They had no shame, they were not able to become red with shame: so they will come down with those who are falling: when my punishment comes on them, they will be made low, says the Lord.
Jer6:16 This is what the Lord has said: Take your place looking out on the ways; make search for the old roads, saying, Where is the good way? and go in it that you may have rest for your souls. But they said, We will not go in it.
Jer6:17 And I put watchmen over you, saying, Give attention to the sound of the horn; but they said, We will not give attention.
Jer6:18 So then, give ear, you nations, and ...
Jer6:19 Give ear, O earth: see, I will make evil come on this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not given attention to my words, and they would have nothing to do with my law.
Jer6:20 To what purpose does sweet perfume come to me from Sheba, and spices from a far country? your burned offerings give me no pleasure, your offerings of beasts are not pleasing to me.
Jer6:23 Bows and spears are in their hands; they are cruel and have no mercy; their voice is like the thunder of the sea, and they go on horses; everyone in his place like men going to the fight, against you, O daughter of Zion.
Jer6:24 The news of it has come to our ears; our hands have become feeble: trouble has come on us and pain, like the pain of a woman in childbirth.
Jer6:25 Go not out into the field or by the way; for there is the sword of the attacker, and fear on every side.
Jer6:26 O daughter of my people, put on haircloth, rolling yourself in the dust: give yourself to sorrow, as for an only son, with most bitter cries of grief; for he who makes waste will come on us suddenly.
Jer6:27 I have made you a tester among my people, so that you may have knowledge of their way and put it to the test.
Jer6:28 All of them are turned away, going about with false stories; they are brass and iron: they are all workers of deceit.
Jer6:29 The blower is blowing strongly, the lead is burned away in the fire: they go on heating the metal to no purpose, for the evil-doers are not taken away.
Jer6:30 They will be named waste silver, because the Lord has given them up.
Jer7:2 Take your place in the doorway of the Lord's house, and give out this word there, and say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who come inside these doors to give worship to the Lord.
Jer7:3 The Lord of armies, the God of Israel, says, Let your ways and your doings be changed for the better and I will let you go on living in this place.
Jer7:4 Put no faith in false words, saying, The Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord, the Temple of the Lord, are these.
Jer7:5 For if your ways and your doings are truly changed for the better; if you truly give right decisions between a man and his neighbour;
Jer7:7 Then I will let you go on living in this place, in the land which I gave to your fathers in the past and for ever.
Jer7:8 See, you put your faith in false words which are of no profit.
Jer7:9 Will you take the goods of others, put men to death, and be untrue to your wives, and take false oaths, and have perfumes burned to the Baal, and go after other gods which are strange to you;
Jer7:10 And come and take your place before me in this house, which is named by my name, and say, We have been made safe; so that you may do all these disgusting things?
Jer7:11 Has this house, which is named by my name, become a hole of thieves to you? Truly I, even I, have seen it, says the Lord.
Jer7:12 But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I put my name at first, and see what I did to it because of the evil-doing of my people Israel.
Jer7:13 And now, because you have done all these works, says the Lord, and I sent my word to you, getting up early and sending, but you did not give ear; and my voice came to you, but you gave no answer:
Jer7:14 For this reason I will do to the house which is named by my name, and in which you have put your faith, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.
Jer7:15 And I will send you away from before my face, as I have sent away all your brothers, even all the seed of Ephraim.
Jer7:16 And as for you (Jeremiah), make no prayers for this people, send up no cry or prayer for them, make no request for them to me: for I will not give ear.
Jer7:17 Do you not see what they are doing in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Jer7:19 Are they moving me to wrath? says the Lord; are they not moving themselves to their shame?
Jer7:21 These are the words of the Lord of armies, the God of Israel: Put your burned offerings with your offerings of beasts, and take flesh for your food.
Jer7:22 For I said nothing to your fathers, and gave them no orders, on the day when I took them out of Egypt, about burned offerings or offerings of beasts:
Jer7:23 But this was the order I gave them, saying, Give ear to my voice, and I will be your God, and you will be my people: go in all the way ordered by me, so that all may be well for you.
Jer7:24 But they took no note and did not give ear, but were guided by the thoughts and the pride of their evil hearts, going back and not forward.
Jer7:25 From the day when your fathers came out of Egypt till this day, I have sent my servants the prophets to you, getting up early every day and sending them:
Jer7:26 But still they took no note and would not give ear, but they made their necks stiff, doing worse than their fathers.
Jer7:27 And you are to say all these words to them, but they will not give ear to you: you will send out your voice to them, but they will give no answer.
Jer7:28 And you are to say to them, This is the nation which has not given ear to the voice of their God, or taken his teaching to heart: good faith is dead and is cut off from their mouths.
Jer7:31 And they have put up the high place of Topheth in the valley of the son of Hinnom, burning their sons and their daughters there in the fire; a thing which was not ordered by me and never came into my mind.
Jer8:2 And they will put them out before the sun and the moon and all the stars of heaven, whose lovers and servants they have been, after whom they have gone, to whom they have made prayers, and to whom they have given worship: they will not be put together or placed in the earth; they will be waste on the face of the earth.
Jer8:3 And death will be desired more than life by the rest of this evil family who are still living in all the places where I have sent them away, says the Lord of armies.
Jer8:4 Further, you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Will those who are falling not be lifted up again? will he who has gone away not come back?
Jer8:5 Why do these people of Jerusalem go back, for ever turning away? they will not give up their deceit, they will not come back.
Jer8:6 I took note and gave ear, but no one said what is right: no man had regret for his evil-doing, saying, What have I done? everyone goes off on his way like a horse rushing to the fight.
Jer8:8 How is it that you say, We are wise and the law of the Lord is with us? But see, the false pen of the scribes has made it false.
Jer8:9 The wise men are shamed, they are overcome with fear and taken: see, they have given up the word of the Lord; and what use is their wisdom to them?
Jer8:10 So I will give their wives to others, and their fields to those who will take them for themselves: for everyone, from the least to the greatest, is given up to getting money; from the priest even to the prophet, everyone is false.
Jer8:11 And they have made little of the wounds of the daughter of Zion, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
Jer8:12 Let them be put to shame because they have done disgusting things. They had no shame, they were not able to become red with shame: so they will come down with those who are falling: in the time of their punishment they will be made low, says the Lord.
Jer8:13 I will put an end to them completely, says the Lord: there are no grapes on the vine and no figs on the fig-tree, and the leaf is dry.
Jer8:14 Why are we seated doing nothing? come together, and let us go to the walled towns, and let destruction overtake us there, for the Lord our God has sent destruction on us, and given us bitter water for our drink, because we have done evil against the Lord.
Jer8:15 We were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there is only a great fear.
Jer8:16 The loud breathing of the horses comes to our ears from Dan: at the sound of the outcry of his war-horses, all the land is shaking with fear; for they have come, and have made a meal of the land and everything in it; the town and the people living in it.
Jer8:17 See, I will send snakes and poison-snakes among you, against which the wonder-worker has no power; and they will give you wounds which may not be made well, says the Lord.
Jer8:19 The voice of the cry of the daughter of my people comes from a far land: Is the Lord not in Zion? is not her King in her? Why have they made me angry with their images and their strange gods which are no gods?
Jer8:20 The grain-cutting is past, the summer is ended, and no salvation has come to us.
Jer9:2 If only I had in the waste land a night's resting-place for travellers, so that I might go away, far from my people! for they are all untrue, a band of false men.
Jer9:3 Their tongues are bent like a bow to send out false words: they have become strong in the land, but not for good faith: they go on from evil to evil, and they have no knowledge of me, says the Lord.
Jer9:4 Let everyone keep watch on his neighbour, and put no faith in any brother: for every brother will certainly be tricking his brother, and every neighbour will go about saying evil.
Jer9:5 Everyone will make sport of his neighbour with deceit, not saying what is true: their tongues have been trained to say false words; they are twisted, hating to come back.
Jer9:6 There is wrong on wrong, deceit on deceit; they have given up the knowledge of me, says the Lord.
Jer9:7 So the Lord of armies has said, See, I will make them soft in the fire and put them to the test; this I will do because of their evil-doing.
Jer9:8 His tongue is an arrow causing death; the words of his mouth are deceit: he says words of peace to his neighbour, but in his heart he is waiting secretly for him.
Jer9:9 Am I not to send punishment for these things? says the Lord: will not my soul take payment from such a nation as this?
Jer9:13 And the Lord said, Because they have given up my law which I put before them, giving no attention to my voice and not being guided by it;
Jer9:14 But they have been walking in the pride of their hearts, going after the Baals, as their fathers gave them teaching.
Jer9:15 So the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, I will give them, even this people, bitter plants for food and bitter water for drink.
Jer9:16 And I will send them wandering among the nations, among people strange to them and to their fathers: and I will send the sword after them till I have put an end to them.
Jer9:17 This is what the Lord of armies has said: Take thought and send for the weeping women, so that they may come; and send for the wise women, so that they may come:
Jer9:18 Let them quickly make cries of sorrow for us, so that drops may be flowing from our eyes till they are streaming with water.
Jer9:19 For a sound of weeping goes up from Zion, a cry, How has destruction come on us? we are overcome with shame because we have gone away from our land; he has sent us out from our house.
Jer9:20 But even now, give ear to the word of the Lord, O you women; let your ears be open to the word of his mouth, training your daughters to give cries of sorrow, everyone teaching her neighbour a song of grief.
Jer9:21 For death has come up into our windows, forcing its way into our great houses; cutting off the children in the streets and the young men in the wide places.
Jer10:1 Give ear to the word which the Lord says to you, O people of Israel:
Jer10:2 This is what the Lord has said: Do not go in the way of the nations; have no fear of the signs of heaven, for the nations go in fear of them.
Jer10:3 For that which is feared by the people is foolish: it is the work of the hands of the workman; for a tree is cut down by him out of the woods with his axe.
Jer10:4 They make it beautiful with silver and gold; they make it strong with nails and hammers, so that it may not be moved.
Jer10:5 It is like a pillar in a garden of plants, and has no voice: it has to be lifted, for it has no power of walking. Have no fear of it; for it has no power of doing evil and it is not able to do any good.
Jer10:8 But they are together like beasts and foolish: the teaching of false gods is wood.
Jer10:11 This is what you are to say to them: The gods who have not made the heavens and the earth will be cut off from the earth and from under the heavens.
Jer10:18 For the Lord has said, I will send the people in flight like a stone from the land at this time, troubling them so that they will be conscious of it.
Jer10:21 For the keepers of the sheep have become like beasts, not looking to the Lord for directions: so they have not done wisely and all their flocks have been put to flight.
Jer10:25 Let your wrath be let loose on the nations which have no knowledge of you, and on the families who give no worship to your name: for they have made a meal of Jacob, truly they have made a meal of him and put an end to him and made his fields a waste.
Jer11:3 The Lord, the God of Israel, has said, Let that man be cursed who does not give ear to the words of this agreement,
Jer11:4 To the order which I gave your fathers on the day when I took them out of the land of Egypt, out of the oven of iron, saying, Give ear to my voice, and do all the orders I have given you: so you will be my people, and I will be your God:
Jer11:5 So that I may give effect to the oath which I made to your fathers, to give them a land flowing with milk and honey as at this day. And I said in answer, So be it, O Lord.
Jer11:6 And the Lord said to me, Give out these words in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Give ear to the words of this agreement and do them.
Jer11:7 For I gave certain witness to your fathers on the day when I took them up out of the land of Egypt, and even to this day, getting up early and witnessing and saying, Give ear to my voice.
Jer11:8 But they gave no attention and did not give ear, but they went on, every man in the pride of his evil heart: so I sent on them all the curses in this agreement, which I gave them orders to keep, but they did not.
Jer11:10 They are turned back to the sins of their fathers, who would not give ear to my words; they have gone after other gods and become their servants: the people of Israel and the people of Judah have not kept the agreement which I made with their fathers.
Jer11:11 So the Lord has said, I will send evil on them, which they will not be able to get away from; and they will send up a cry for help to me, but I will not give ear to them.
Jer11:12 Then the towns of Judah and the people of Jerusalem will go crying for help to the gods to whom they have been burning perfumes: but they will give them no salvation in the time of their trouble.
Jer11:14 And as for you, make no prayers for this people, send up no cry or prayer for them: for I will not give ear to their cry in the time of their trouble.
Jer11:18 And the Lord gave me knowledge of it and I saw it: then you made clear to me their doings.
Jer11:19 But I was like a gentle lamb taken to be put to death; I had no thought that they were designing evil against me, saying, Come and let us make trouble his food, cutting him off from the land of the living, so that there may be no more memory of his name.
Jer11:20 But, O Lord of armies, judging in righteousness, testing the thoughts and the heart, let me see your punishment come on them: for I have put my cause before you.
Jer11:21 So this is what the Lord of armies has said about the men of Anathoth who have made designs against your life, saying, You are not to be a prophet in the name of the Lord, or death will overtake you by our hands:
Jer11:22 So the Lord of armies has said, See, I will send punishment on them: the young men will be put to the sword; their sons and their daughters will come to death through need of food:
Jer11:23 Not one of them will keep his life, for I will send evil on the men of Anathoth in the year of their punishment.
Jer12:2 They have been planted by you, they have taken root; they go on and give fruit: you are near in their mouths but far from their thoughts.
Jer12:3 But you, O Lord, have knowledge of me; you see me, searching and testing how my heart is with you: let them be pulled out like sheep to be put to death, make them ready for the day of death.
Jer12:4 How long will the land have grief, and the plants of all the land be dry? because of the sins of the people living in it, destruction has overtaken the beasts and the birds; because they said, God does not see our ways.
Jer12:6 For even your brothers, your father's family, even they have been untrue to you, crying loudly after you: have no faith in them, though they say fair words to you.
Jer12:9 My heritage is like a brightly coloured bird to me; the cruel birds are attacking her on every side: go, get together all the beasts of the field, make them come for destruction.
Jer12:11 They have made it waste; it is weeping to me, being wasted; all the land is made waste, because no man takes it to heart.
Jer12:13 Though good grain was planted, they have got in thorns: they have given themselves pain without profit: they will be shamed on account of their produce, because of the burning wrath of the Lord.
Jer12:14 This is what the Lord has said against all my evil neighbours, who put their hands on the heritage which I gave my people Israel: See, I will have them uprooted from their land, uprooting the people of Judah from among them.
Jer12:15 And it will come about that, after they have been uprooted, I will again have pity on them; and I will take them back, every man to his heritage and every man to his land.
Jer12:16 And it will be that, if they give their minds to learning the ways of my people, using my name in their oaths, By the living Lord; as they have been teaching my people to take oaths by the Baal; then their place will be made certain among my people.
Jer12:17 But if they will not give ear, then I will have that nation uprooted, and given to destruction, says the Lord.
Jer13:10 These evil people who say they will not give ear to my words, who go on in the pride of their hearts and have become servants and worshippers of other gods, will become like this band which is of no use for anything.
Jer13:11 For as a band goes tightly round a man's body, so I made all the people of Israel and all the people of Judah tightly united to me; so that they might be a people for me and a name and a praise and a glory: but they would not give ear.
Jer13:12 So you are to say this word to them: This is the word of the Lord, the God of Israel: Every skin bottle will be full of wine; and they will say to you, Is it not quite clear to us that every skin bottle will be full of wine?
Jer13:13 Then you are to say to them, The Lord has said, I will make all the people of this land, even the kings seated on David's seat, and the priests and the prophets and all the people of Jerusalem, overcome with strong drink.
Jer13:14 I will have them smashed against one another, fathers and sons together, says the Lord: I will have no pity or mercy, I will have no feeling for them to keep me from giving them to destruction.
Jer13:15 Give ear and let your ears be open; be not lifted up: for these are the words of the Lord.
Jer13:16 Give glory to the Lord your God, before he makes it dark, and before your feet are slipping on the dark mountains, and, while you are looking for a light, he makes it into deep dark, into black night.
Jer13:17 But if you do not give ear to it, my soul will be weeping in secret for your pride; my eye will be weeping bitterly, streaming with water, because the Lord's flock has been taken away as prisoners.
Jer13:18 Say to the king and to the queen-mother, Make yourselves low, be seated on the earth: for the crown of your glory has come down from your heads.
Jer13:20 Let your eyes be lifted up (O Jerusalem), and see those who are coming from the north. Where is the flock which was given to you, your beautiful flock?
Jer13:23 Is it possible for the skin of the Ethiopian to be changed, or the markings on the leopard? Then it might be possible for you to do good, who have been trained to do evil.
Jer13:24 So I will send them in all directions, as dry grass is taken away by the wind of the waste land.
Jer14:3 Their great men have sent their servants for water: they come to the holes and there is no water to be seen; they come back with nothing in their vessels; they are overcome with shame and fear, covering their heads.
Jer14:7 Though our sins give witness against us, do something, O Lord, for the honour of your name: for again and again we have been turned away from you, we have done evil against you.
Jer14:9 Why are you like a man surprised, like a man of war who is not able to give help? but you, O Lord, are with us, and we are named by your name; do not go away from us.
Jer14:10 This is what the Lord has said about this people: Even so they have been glad to go from the right way; they have not kept their feet from wandering, so the Lord has no pleasure in them; now he will keep their wrongdoing in mind and send punishment for their sins.
Jer14:12 When they go without food, I will not give ear to their cry; when they give burned offerings and meal offerings, I will not take pleasure in them: but I will put an end to them by the sword and by need of food and by disease.
Jer14:13 Then I said, Ah, Lord God! see, the prophets say to them, You will not see the sword or be short of food; but I will give you certain peace in this place.
Jer14:14 Then the Lord said to me, The prophets say false words in my name, and I gave them no orders, and I said nothing to them: what they say to you is a false vision and wonder-working words without substance, the deceit of their hearts.
Jer14:15 So this is what the Lord has said about the prophets who make use of my name, though I sent them not, and say, The sword and need of food will not be in this land: the sword and need of food will put an end to those prophets.
Jer14:16 And the people to whom they are prophets will be pushed out dead into the streets of Jerusalem, because there is no food, and because of the sword; and they will have no one to put their bodies into the earth, them or their wives or their sons or their daughters: for I will let loose their evil-doing on them.
Jer14:17 And you are to say this word to them, Let my eyes be streaming with water night and day, and let it not be stopped; for the virgin daughter of my people is wounded with a great wound, with a very bitter blow.
Jer14:19 Have you completely given up Judah? is your soul turned in disgust from Zion? why have you given us blows from which there is no one to make us well? we were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there was only a great fear.
Jer14:20 We are conscious, O Lord, of our sin and of the wrongdoing of our fathers: we have done evil against you.
Jer14:21 Do not be turned from us in disgust, because of your name; do not put shame on the seat of your glory: keep us in mind, let not your agreement with us be broken.
Jer14:22 Are any of the false gods of the nations able to make rain come? are the heavens able to give showers? are you not he, O Lord our God? so we will go on waiting for you, for you have done all these things.
Jer15:1 Then the Lord said to me, Even if Moses and Samuel came before me, I would have no desire for this people: send them away from before me, and let them go.
Jer15:2 And it will be, when they say to you, Where are we to go? then you are to say to them, The Lord has said, Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are to be in need of food, to need of food; and such as are to be taken away prisoners, to be taken away.
Jer15:3 And I will put over them four divisions, says the Lord: the sword causing death, dogs pulling the dead bodies about, and the birds of heaven, and the beasts of the earth to take their bodies for food and put an end to them.
Jer15:4 And I will make them a cause of fear to all the kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh, the son of Hezekiah, king of Judah, and what he did in Jerusalem.
Jer15:7 And I have sent a cleaning wind on them in the public places of the land; I have taken their children from them; I have given my people to destruction; they have not been turned from their ways.
Jer15:8 I have let their widows be increased in number more than the sand of the seas: I have sent against them, against the mother and the young men, one who makes waste in the heat of the day, causing pain and fears to come on her suddenly.
Jer15:9 The mother of seven is without strength; her spirit is gone from her, her sun has gone down while it is still day: she has been shamed and overcome: and the rest of them I will give up to the sword before their haters, says the Lord.
Jer15:14 They will go away with your haters into a land which is strange to you: for my wrath is on fire with a flame which will be burning on you.
Jer15:15 O Lord, you have knowledge: keep me in mind and come to my help, and give their right reward to those who are attacking me; take me not away, for you are slow to be angry: see how I have undergone shame because of you from all those who make little of your word;
Jer15:19 For this cause the Lord has said, If you will come back, then I will again let you take your place before me; and if you give out what is of value and not that which has no value, you will be as my mouth: let them come back to you, but do not go back to them.
Jer15:20 And I will make you a strong wall of brass to this people; they will be fighting against you, but they will not overcome you: for I am with you to keep you safe, says the Lord.
Jer16:3 For this is what the Lord has said about the sons and daughters who come to birth in this place, and about their mothers who have given them birth, and about their fathers who have given life to them in this land:
Jer16:4 Death from evil diseases will overtake them; there will be no weeping for them and their bodies will not be put to rest; they will be like waste on the face of the earth: the sword and need of food will put an end to them; their dead bodies will be meat for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth.
Jer16:5 For this is what the Lord has said: Do not go into the house of sorrow, do not go to make weeping or songs of grief for them: for I have taken away my peace from this people, says the Lord, even mercy and pity.
Jer16:6 Death will overtake great as well as small in the land: their bodies will not be put in a resting-place, and no one will be weeping for them or wounding themselves or cutting off their hair for them:
Jer16:7 No one will make a feast for them in sorrow, to give them comfort for the dead, or put to their lips the cup of comfort on account of their father or their mother.
Jer16:8 And you are not to go into the house of feasting, or be seated with them to take food or drink.
Jer16:9 For the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, See, before your eyes and in your days I will put an end in this place to the laughing voices and the voice of joy; to the voice of the newly-married man and the voice of the bride.
Jer16:10 And it will be, that when you say all these words to the people, then they will say to you, Why has the Lord done all this evil against us? what is our wrongdoing and what is our sin which we have done against the Lord our God?
Jer16:11 Then you will say to them, Because your fathers have given me up, says the Lord, and have gone after other gods and become their servants and their worshippers, and have given me up and have not kept my law;
Jer16:12 And you have done worse evil than your fathers; for see, every one of you is guided by the pride of his evil heart, so as not to give ear to me:
Jer16:13 For this reason I will send you away out of this land into a land which is strange to you, to you and to your fathers; there you will be the servants of other gods day and night, and you will have no mercy from me.
Jer16:15 But, By the living Lord, who took the children of Israel up out of the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had sent them: and I will take them back again to their land which I gave to their fathers.
Jer16:16 See, I will send for great numbers of fishermen, says the Lord, and they will take them like fish in a net; and after that, I will send for numbers of bowmen, and they will go after them, driving them from every mountain and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.
Jer16:17 For my eyes are on all their ways: there is no cover for them from my face, and their evil-doing is not kept secret from my eyes.
Jer16:18 And I will give them the reward of their evil-doing and their sin twice over; because they have made my land unclean, and have made my heritage full of the bodies of their unholy and disgusting things.
Jer16:19 O Lord, my strength and my strong tower, my safe place in the day of trouble, the nations will come to you from the ends of the earth, and say, The heritage of our fathers is nothing but deceit, even false things in which there is no profit.
Jer16:21 For this reason, truly, I will make them see, this once I will give them knowledge of my hand and my power; and they will be certain that my name is the Lord.
Jer17:1 The sin of Judah is recorded with a pen of iron, and with the sharp point of a jewel it is cut on their hearts of stone, and on the horns of their altars for a sign to them:
Jer17:2 Their altars and their wood pillars under every branching tree, on the high hills and the mountains in the field.
Jer17:12 A seat of glory, placed on high from the first, is our holy place.
Jer17:13 O Lord, the hope of Israel, all who give you up will be put to shame; those who go away from you will be cut off from the earth, because they have given up the Lord, the fountain of living waters.
Jer17:15 See, they say to me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come now.
Jer17:18 Let them be put to shame who are attacking me, but let me not be shamed; let them be overcome with fear, but let me not be overcome: send on them the day of evil, and put them to destruction twice over.
Jer17:20 And say to them, Give ear to the word of the Lord, you kings of Judah, and all the people of Jerusalem who come in by these doors:
Jer17:21 This is what the Lord has said: See to yourselves, that you take up no weight on the Sabbath day, or take it in through the doors of Jerusalem;
Jer17:22 And take no weight out of your houses on the Sabbath day, or do any work, but keep the Sabbath day holy, as I gave orders to your fathers;
Jer17:23 But they gave no attention and would not give ear, but they made their necks stiff so that they might not give ear and might not get teaching.
Jer17:24 And it will be, that if with all care you give ear to me, says the Lord, and take no weight through the doorways of this town on the Sabbath day, but keep the Sabbath day holy and do no work in it;
Jer17:25 Then through the doors of this town there will come kings and princes, seated on the seat of David, going in carriages and on horseback, they and their princes, and the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem: and this town will keep its place for ever.
Jer17:27 But if you do not give ear to me, to keep the Sabbath day holy, and to let no weight be lifted and taken through the doors of Jerusalem on the Sabbath day: then I will put a fire in its doorways, burning up the great houses of Jerusalem, and it will never be put out.
Jer18:6 O Israel, am I not able to do with you as this potter does? says the Lord. See, like earth in the potter's hand are you in my hands, O Israel.
Jer18:8 If, in that very minute, that nation of which I was talking is turned away from its evil, my purpose of doing evil to them will be changed.
Jer18:10 If, in that very minute, it does evil in my eyes, going against my orders, then my good purpose, which I said I would do for them, will be changed.
Jer18:11 Now, then, say to the men of Judah and to the people of Jerusalem, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am forming an evil thing against you, and designing a design against you: let every man come back now from his evil way, and let your ways and your doings be changed for the better.
Jer18:12 But they will say, There is no hope: we will go on in our designs, and every one of us will do what he is moved by the pride of his evil heart to do.
Jer18:13 So this is what the Lord has said: Make search among the nations and see who has had word of such things; the virgin of Israel has done a very shocking thing.
Jer18:15 For my people have put me out of their memory, burning perfumes to that which is nothing; and because of this, I will put a cause of falling in their ways, even in the old roads, and will make them go on side-roads, in a way not lifted up;
Jer18:16 Making their land a thing of wonder, causing sounds of surprise for ever; everyone who goes by will be overcome with wonder, shaking his head.
Jer18:17 I will send them in flight, as from an east wind, before the attacker; I will let them see my back and not my face on the day of their downfall.
Jer18:18 Then they said, Come, let us make a design against Jeremiah; for teaching will never be cut off from the priest, or wisdom from the wise, or the word from the prophet. Come, let us make use of his words for an attack on him, and let us give attention with care to what he says.
Jer18:20 Is evil to be the reward of good? for they have made a deep hole for my soul. Keep in mind how I took my place before you, to say a good word for them so that your wrath might be turned away from them.
Jer18:21 For this cause, let their children be without food, and give them over to the power of the sword; and let their wives be without children and become widows; let their men be overtaken by death, and their young men be put to the sword in the fight.
Jer18:22 Let a cry for help go up from their houses, when you send an armed band on them suddenly: for they have made a hole in which to take me, and have put nets for my feet secretly.
Jer18:23 But you, Lord, have knowledge of all the designs which they have made against my life; let not their evil-doing be covered or their sin be washed away from before your eyes: but let it be a cause of falling before you: so do to them in the time of your wrath.
Jer19:4 Because they have given me up, and made this place a strange place, burning perfumes in it to other gods, of whom they and their fathers and the kings of Judah had no knowledge; and they have made this place full of the blood of those who have done no wrong;
Jer19:7 I will make the purpose of Judah and Jerusalem come to nothing in this place; I will have them put to the sword by their haters, and by the hands of those who have designs on their life; and their dead bodies I will give to be food for the birds of heaven and the beasts of the earth.
Jer19:9 I will make them take the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters for food, they will be making a meal of one another, because of their bitter need and the cruel grip of their haters and those who have made designs against their life.
Jer19:11 And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies has said: Even so will this people and this town be broken by me, as a potter's bottle is broken and may not be put together again: and the bodies of the dead will be put in the earth in Topheth, till there is no more room.
Jer19:13 And the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, which they have made unclean, will be like the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs perfumes have been burned to all the army of heaven, and drink offerings drained out to other gods.
Jer19:15 The Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, I will send on this town and on all her towns all the evil which I have said; because they made their necks stiff, so that they might not give ear to my words.
Jer20:4 For the Lord has said, See, I will make you a cause of fear to yourself and to all your friends: they will come to their death by the sword of their haters, and your eyes will see it: and I will give all Judah into the hands of the king of Babylon, and he will take them away prisoners into Babylon and put them to the sword.
Jer20:5 And more than this, I will give all the wealth of this town and all its profits and all its things of value, even all the stores of the kings of Judah will I give into the hands of their haters, who will put violent hands on them and take them away to Babylon.
Jer20:6 And you, Pashhur, and all who are in your house, will go away prisoners: you will come to Babylon, and there your body will be put to rest, you and all your friends, to whom you said false words.
Jer20:10 For numbers of them say evil secretly in my hearing (there is fear on every side): they say, Come, let us give witness against him; all my nearest friends, who are watching for my fall, say, It may be that he will be taken by deceit, and we will get the better of him and give him punishment.
Jer20:11 But the Lord is with me as a great one, greatly to be feared: so my attackers will have a fall, and they will not overcome me: they will be greatly shamed, because they have not done wisely, even with an unending shame, kept in memory for ever.
Jer20:12 But, O Lord of armies, testing the upright and seeing the thoughts and the heart, let me see your punishment come on them; for I have put my cause before you.
Jer20:13 Make melody to the Lord, give praise to the Lord: for he has made the soul of the poor man free from the hands of the evil-doers.
Jer21:2 Will you get directions from the Lord for us; for Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, is making war against us; it may be that the Lord will do something for us like all the wonders he has done, and make him go away from us.
Jer21:3 Then Jeremiah said to them, This is what you are to say to Zedekiah:
Jer21:4 The Lord God of Israel has said, See, I am turning back the instruments of war in your hands, with which you are fighting against the king of Babylon and the Chaldaeans, who are outside the walls and shutting you in; and I will get them together inside this town.
Jer21:5 And I myself will be fighting against you with an outstretched hand and with a strong arm, even with angry feeling and passion and in great wrath.
Jer21:7 And after that, says the Lord, I will give up Zedekiah, king of Judah, and his servants and his people, even those in the town who have not come to their end from the disease and the sword and from need of food, into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and into the hands of their haters, and into the hands of those desiring their death: he will put them to the sword; he will not let anyone get away, he will have no pity or mercy.
Jer21:8 And to this people you are to say, The Lord has said, See, I put before you the way of life and the way of death.
Jer21:9 He who keeps in this town will come to his death by the sword and through need of food and through disease; but he who goes out and gives himself up to the Chaldaeans who are shutting you in, will go on living, and will keep his life safe.
Jer21:11 About the family of the king of Judah. Give ear to the word of the Lord;
Jer21:12 O family of David, this is what the Lord has said: Do what is right in the morning, and make free from the hands of the cruel one him whose goods have been violently taken away, or my wrath will go out like fire, burning so that no one may put it out, because of the evil of your doings.
Jer21:13 See, I am against you, you who are living on the rock of the valley, says the Lord; you who say, Who will come down against us? or who will get into our houses?
Jer21:14 I will send punishment on you in keeping with the fruit of your doings, says the Lord: and I will put a fire in her woodlands, burning up everything round about her.
Jer22:3 This is what the Lord has said: Do what is right, judging uprightly, and make free from the hands of the cruel one him whose goods have been violently taken away: do no wrong and be not violent to the man from a strange country and the child without a father and the widow, and let not those who have done no wrong be put to death in this place.
Jer22:4 For if you truly do this, then there will come in through the doors of this house kings seated on the seat of David, going in carriages and on horseback, he and his servants and his people
Jer22:5 But if you do not give ear to these words, I give you my oath by myself, says the Lord, that this house will become a waste.
Jer22:7 And I will make ready those who will send destruction on you, everyone armed for war: by them your best cedar-trees will be cut down and put in the fire.
Jer22:9 And they will say, Because they gave up the agreement of the Lord their God, and became worshippers and servants of other gods.
Jer22:26 I will send you out, and your mother who gave you birth, into another country not the land of your birth; and there death will come to you.
Jer23:2 So this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said against the keepers who have the care of my people: You have let my flock be broken up, driving them away and not caring for them; see, I will send on you the punishment for the evil of your doings, says the Lord.
Jer23:3 And I will get the rest of my flock together from all the countries where I have sent them, and will make them come back again to their resting-place; and they will have offspring and be increased.
Jer23:4 And I will put over them keepers who will take care of them: never again will they be overcome with fear or be troubled, and there will not be the loss of one of them, says the Lord.
Jer23:6 In his days Judah will have salvation and Israel will be living without fear: and this is the name by which he will be named, The Lord is our righteousness.
Jer23:8 But, By the living Lord, who took up the seed of Israel, and made them come out of the north country, and from all the countries where I had sent them; and they will be living in the land which is theirs.
Jer23:10 For the land is full of men who are untrue to their wives; because of the curse the land is full of grief; the green fields of the waste land have become dry; and they are quick to do evil, their strength is for what is not right.
Jer23:11 For the prophet as well as the priest is unclean; even in my house I have seen their evil-doing, says the Lord.
Jer23:12 For this cause their steps will be slipping on their way: they will be forced on into the dark and have a fall there: for I will send evil on them in the year of their punishment, says the Lord.
Jer23:13 And I have seen ways without sense in the prophets of Samaria; they became prophets of the Baal, causing my people Israel to go wrong.
Jer23:14 And in the prophets of Jerusalem I have seen a shocking thing; they are untrue to their wives, walking in deceit, and they make strong the hands of evil-doers, so that a man may not be turned back from his evil-doing: they have all become like Sodom to me, and its people like Gomorrah.
Jer23:15 So this is what the Lord of armies has said about the prophets: See, I will give them a bitter plant for their food, and bitter water for their drink: for from the prophets of Jerusalem unclean behaviour has gone out into all the land.
Jer23:16 This is what the Lord of armies has said: Do not give ear to the words which the prophets say to you: they give you teaching of no value: it is from themselves that their vision comes, and not out of the mouth of the Lord.
Jer23:17 They keep on saying to those who have no respect for the word of the Lord, You will have peace; and to everyone who goes on his way in the pride of his heart, they say, No evil will come to you.
Jer23:20 The wrath of the Lord will not be turned back till he has done, till he has put into effect, the purposes of his heart: in days to come you will have full knowledge of this.
Jer23:21 I did not send these prophets, but they went running: I said nothing to them, but they gave out the prophet's word.
Jer23:22 But if they had been in my secret, then they would have made my people give ear to my words, turning them from their evil way, and from the evil of their doings.
Jer23:25 My ears have been open to what the prophets have said, who say false words in my name, saying, I have had a dream, I have had a dream, I have had a dream,
Jer23:26 Is (my word) in the hearts of the prophets who give out false words, even the prophets of the deceit of their hearts?
Jer23:27 Whose purpose is to take away the memory of my name from my people by their dreams, of which every man is talking to his neighbour, as their fathers gave up the memory of my name for the Baal.
Jer23:30 For this cause I am against the prophets, says the Lord, who take my words, every one from his neighbour.
Jer23:31 See, I am against the prophets, says the Lord, who let their tongues say, He has said.
Jer23:32 See, I am against the prophets of false dreams, says the Lord, who give them out and make my people go out of the way by their deceit and their uncontrolled words: but I did not send them or give them orders; and they will be of no profit to this people, says the Lord.
Jer23:33 And if this people, or the prophet, or a priest, questioning you, says, What word of weight is there from the Lord? then you are to say to them, You are the word, for I will not be troubled with you any more, says the Lord.
Jer23:35 But this is what you are to say, every man to his neighbour and every man to his brother, What answer has the Lord given? and, What has the Lord said?
Jer23:36 And you will no longer put people in mind of the word of weight of the Lord: for every man's word will be a weight on himself; for the words of the living God, of the Lord of armies, our God, have been twisted by you.
Jer23:37 This is what you are to say to the prophet, What answer has the Lord given to you? and, What has the Lord said?
Jer23:38 But if you say, The word of weight of the Lord; this is what the Lord has said: Because you say, The weight of the Lord, and I have sent to you, saying, You are not to say, The weight of the Lord;
Jer23:39 For this reason, truly, I will put you completely out of my memory, and I will put you, and the town which I gave to you and to your fathers, away from before my face:
Jer23:40 And I will give you a name without honour for ever, and unending shame which will never go from the memory of men.
Jer24:5 This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, has said: Like these good figs, so in my eyes will be the prisoners of Judah, whom I have sent from this place into the land of the Chaldaeans for their good.
Jer24:6 For I will keep my eyes on them for good, and I will take them back again to this land, building them up and not pulling them down, planting them and not uprooting them.
Jer24:7 And I will give them a heart to have knowledge of me, that I am the Lord: and they will be my people, and I will be their God: for they will come back to me with all their heart.
Jer24:9 I will give them up to be a cause of fear and of trouble among all the kingdoms of the earth; to be a name of shame and common talk and a cutting word and a curse in all the places wherever I will send them wandering.
Jer24:10 And I will send the sword, and need of food, and disease, among them till they are all cut off from the land which I gave to them and to their fathers.
Jer25:3 From the thirteenth year of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah, even till this day, for twenty-three years, the word of the Lord has been coming to me, and I have given it to you, getting up early and talking to you; but you have not given ear.
Jer25:4 And the Lord has sent to you all his servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them; but you have not given attention and your ear has not been open to give hearing;
Jer25:5 Saying, Come back now, everyone from his evil way and from the evil of your doings, and keep your place in the land which the Lord has given to you and to your fathers, from times long past even for ever:
Jer25:6 Do not go after other gods to be their servants and to give them worship, and do not make me angry with the work of your hands, causing evil to yourselves.
Jer25:7 But you have not given ear to me, says the Lord; so that you have made me angry with the work of your hands, causing evil to yourselves.
Jer25:8 So this is what the Lord of armies has said: Because you have not given ear to my words,
Jer25:9 See, I will send and take all the families of the north, says the Lord, and Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, my servant, and make them come against this land, and against its people, and against all these nations on every side; and I will give them up to complete destruction, and make them a cause of fear and surprise and a waste place for ever.
Jer25:10 And more than this, I will take from them the sound of laughing voices, the voice of joy, the voice of the newly-married man, and the voice of the bride, the sound of the stones crushing the grain, and the shining of lights.
Jer25:12 And it will come about, after seventy years are ended, that I will send punishment on the king of Babylon, and on that nation, says the Lord, for their evil-doing, and on the land of the Chaldaeans; and I will make it a waste for ever.
Jer25:14 For a number of nations and great kings will make servants of them, even of them: and I will give them the reward of their acts, even the reward of the work of their hands.
Jer25:16 And after drinking it, they will go rolling from side to side, and be off their heads, because of the sword which I will send among them.
Jer25:27 And you are to say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Take of this cup and be overcome, and let it come out again from your lips, and from your fall you will never be lifted up again, because of the sword which I will send among you.
Jer25:28 And it will be, if they will not take of the cup in your hand, then you are to say to them, This is what the Lord of armies has said: You will certainly take of it.
Jer25:29 For see, I am starting to send evil on the town which is named by my name, and are you to be without any punishment? You will not be without punishment: for I will send a sword on all people living on the earth, says the Lord of armies.
Jer25:30 So, as a prophet, give out these words among them, and say to them, The voice of the Lord will be sounding like a lion from on high; he will send out his voice from his holy place, like the loud voice of a lion, against his flock; he will give a cry, like those who are crushing the grapes, against all the people of the earth.
Jer25:34 Give cries of grief, you keepers of sheep; give cries for help, rolling yourselves in the dust, you chiefs of the flock: for the days of your destruction have fully come, and I will send you in all directions, and your fall will be like that of the males of the flock.
Jer25:36 A sound of the cry of the keepers of sheep, and the bitter crying of the chiefs of the flock! for the Lord has made waste their green fields.
Jer25:38 The lion has come out of his secret place, for the land has become a waste because of the cruel sword, and because of the heat of his wrath.
Jer26:3 It may be that they will give ear, and that every man will be turned from his evil way, so that my purpose of sending evil on them because of the evil of their doings may be changed.
Jer26:4 And you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: If you do not give ear to me and go in the way of my law which I have put before you,
Jer26:5 And give ear to the words of my servants the prophets whom I send to you, getting up early and sending them, though you gave no attention;
Jer26:11 Then the priests and the prophets said to the rulers and to all the people, The right fate for this man is death; for he has said words against this town in your hearing.
Jer26:12 Then Jeremiah said to all the rulers and to all the people, The Lord has sent me as his prophet to say against this house and against this town all the words which have come to your ears.
Jer26:13 So now, make a change for the better in your ways and your doings, and give ear to the voice of the Lord your God; then the Lord will let himself be turned from the decision he has made against you for evil.
Jer26:14 As for me, here I am in your hands: do with me whatever seems good and right in your opinion.
Jer26:15 Only be certain that, if you put me to death, you will make yourselves and your town and its people responsible for the blood of one who has done no wrong: for truly, the Lord has sent me to you to say all these words in your ears.
Jer26:16 Then the rulers and all the people said to the priests and the prophets, It is not right for this man to be put to death: for he has said words to us in the name of the Lord our God.
Jer26:19 Did Hezekiah and all Judah put him to death? did he not in the fear of the Lord make prayer for the grace of the Lord, and the Lord let himself be turned from the decision he had made against them for evil? By this act we might do great evil against ourselves.
Jer26:23 And they took Uriah out of Egypt and came back with him to Jehoiakim the king; who put him to death with the sword, and had his dead body put into the resting-place of the bodies of the common people.
Jer27:4 And give them orders to say to their masters, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Say to your masters,
Jer27:7 And all the nations will be servants to him and to his son and to his son's son, till the time comes for his land to be overcome: and then a number of nations and great kings will take it for their use.
Jer27:8 And it will come about, that if any nation does not become a servant to this same Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, and does not put its neck under the yoke of the king of Babylon, then I will send punishment on that nation, says the Lord, by the sword and need of food and by disease, till I have given them into his hands.
Jer27:9 And you are not to give attention to your prophets or your readers of signs or your dreamers or those who see into the future or those who make use of secret arts, who say to you, You will not become servants of the king of Babylon:
Jer27:10 For they say false words to you, so that you may be sent away far from your land, and so that you may be forced out by me and come to destruction.
Jer27:12 And I said all this to Zedekiah, king of Judah, saying, Put your necks under the yoke of the king of Babylon and become his servants and his people, so that you may keep your lives.
Jer27:14 And you are not to give ear to the prophets who say to you, You will not become servants of the king of Babylon: for what they say is not true.
Jer27:15 For I have not sent them, says the Lord, but they are saying what is false in my name, so that I might send you out by force, causing destruction to come on you and on your prophets.
Jer27:16 And I said to the priests and to all the people, This is what the Lord has said: Give no attention to the words of your prophets who say to you, See, in a very little time now the vessels of the Lord's house will come back again from Babylon: for what they say to you is false.
Jer27:17 Give no attention to them; become servants of the king of Babylon and keep yourselves from death: why let this town become a waste?
Jer27:18 But if they are prophets, and if the word of the Lord is with them, let them now make request to the Lord of armies that the vessels which are still in the house of the Lord and in the house of the king of Judah and at Jerusalem, may not go to Babylon.
Jer28:6 The prophet Jeremiah said, So be it: may the Lord do so: may the Lord give effect to the words which you have said, and let the vessels of the Lord's house, and all the people who have been taken away, come back from Babylon to this place.
Jer28:14 For the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: I have put a yoke of iron on the necks of all these nations, making them servants to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon; and they are to be his servants: and in addition I have given him the beasts of the field.
Jer29:3 By the hand of Elasah, the son of Shaphan, and Gemariah, the son of Hilkiah, (whom Zedekiah, king of Judah, sent to Babylon, to Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon,) saying,
Jer29:4 This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said to all those whom I have taken away prisoners from Jerusalem to Babylon:
Jer29:5 Go on building houses and living in them, and planting gardens and using the fruit of them;
Jer29:6 Take wives and have sons and daughters, and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, so that they may have sons and daughters; and be increased in number there and do not become less.
Jer29:7 And be working for the peace of the land to which I have had you taken away prisoners, and make prayer to the Lord for it: for in its peace you will have peace.
Jer29:8 For this is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Do not let yourselves be tricked by the prophets who are among you, and the readers of signs, and give no attention to their dreams which they may have;
Jer29:9 For they are saying to you what is false in my name: I have not sent them, says the Lord.
Jer29:10 For this is what the Lord has said: When seventy years are ended for Babylon, I will have pity on you and give effect to my good purpose for you, causing you to come back to this place.
Jer29:11 For I am conscious of my thoughts about you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you hope at the end.
Jer29:12 And you will go on crying to me and making prayer to me, and I will give ear to you.
Jer29:13 And you will be searching for me and I will be there, when you have gone after me with all your heart.
Jer29:14 I will be near you again, says the Lord, and your fate will be changed, and I will get you together from all the nations and from all the places where I had sent you away, says the Lord; and I will take you back again to the place from which I sent you away prisoners.
Jer29:15 For you have said, The Lord has given us prophets in Babylon.
Jer29:16 For this is what the Lord has said about the king who is seated on the seat of David's kingdom, and about all the people living in this town, your countrymen who have not gone out with you as prisoners;
Jer29:17 This is what the Lord of armies has said: See, I will send on them the sword and need of food and disease, and will make them like bad figs, which are of no use for food, they are so bad.
Jer29:18 I will go after them, attacking them with the sword and with need of food and with disease, and will make them a cause of fear to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse and a wonder and a surprise and a name of shame among all the nations where I have sent them:
Jer29:19 Because they have not given ear to my words, says the Lord, when I sent to them my servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them; but you did not give ear, says the Lord.
Jer29:20 And now, give ear to the word of the Lord, all you whom I have sent away prisoners from Jerusalem to Babylon.
Jer29:21 This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said about Ahab, the son of Kolaiah, and about Zedekiah, the son of Maaseiah, who are saying to you what is false in my name: See, I will give them up into the hands of Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, and he will put them to death before your eyes.
Jer29:23 Because they have done shame in Israel, and have taken their neighbours' wives, and in my name have said false words, which I did not give them orders to say; and I myself am the witness, says the Lord.
Jer29:27 So why have you made no protest against Jeremiah of Anathoth, who is acting as a prophet to you?
Jer29:28 For he has sent to us in Babylon saying, The time will be long: go on building houses and living in them, and planting gardens and using the fruit of them.
Jer29:31 Send to all those who have been taken away, saying, This is what the Lord has said about Shemaiah the Nehelamite: Because Shemaiah has been acting as a prophet to you, and I did not send him, and has made you put your faith in what is false;
Jer30:3 For see, the days are coming, says the Lord, when I will let the fate of my people Israel and Judah be changed, says the Lord: and I will make them come back to the land which I gave to their fathers, so that they may take it for their heritage.
Jer30:5 This is what the Lord has said: A voice of shaking fear has come to our ears, of fear and not of peace.
Jer30:6 Put the question and see if it is possible for a man to have birth-pains: why do I see every man with his hands gripping his sides, as a woman does when the pains of birth are on her, and all faces are turned green?
Jer30:8 For it will come about on that day, says the Lord of armies, that his yoke will be broken off his neck, and his bands will be burst; and men of strange lands will no longer make use of him as their servant:
Jer30:9 But they will be servants to the Lord their God and to David their king, whom I will give back to them.
Jer30:19 And from them will go out praise and the sound of laughing: and I will make them great in number, and they will not become less; and I will give them glory, and they will not be small.
Jer30:20 And their children will be as they were in the old days, and the meeting of the people will have its place before me, and I will send punishment on all who are cruel to them.
Jer30:21 And their chief will be of their number; their ruler will come from among themselves; and I will let him be present before me, so that he may come near to me: for who may have strength of heart to come near me? says the Lord.
Jer30:22 And you will be my people, and I will be your God.
Jer30:24 The wrath of the Lord will not be turned back till he has done, till he has put into effect, the purposes of his heart: in days to come you will have full knowledge of this.
Jer31:1 At that time, says the Lord, I will be the God of all the families of Israel, and they will be my people.
Jer31:6 For there will be a day when those who get in the grapes on the hills of Ephraim will be crying, Up! let us go up to Zion to the Lord our God.
Jer31:7 For the Lord has said, Make a glad song for Jacob and give a cry on the top of the mountains: give the news, give praise, and say, The Lord has given salvation to his people, even to the rest of Israel.
Jer31:8 See, I will take them from the north country, and get them from the inmost parts of the earth, and with them the blind and the feeble-footed, the woman with child and her who is in birth-pains together: a very great army, they will come back here.
Jer31:9 They will come with weeping, and going before them I will be their guide: guiding them by streams of water in a straight way where there is no falling: for I am a father to Israel, and Ephraim is the first of my sons.
Jer31:12 So they will come with songs on the high places, flowing together to the good things of the Lord, to the grain and the wine and the oil, to the young ones of the flock and of the herd: their souls will be like a watered garden, and they will have no more sorrow.
Jer31:13 Then the virgin will have joy in the dance, and the young men and the old will be glad: for I will have their weeping turned into joy, I will give them comfort and make them glad after their sorrow.
Jer31:15 So has the Lord said: In Ramah there is a sound of crying, weeping and bitter sorrow; Rachel weeping for her children; she will not be comforted for their loss.
Jer31:16 The Lord has said this: Keep your voice from sorrow and your eyes from weeping: for your work will be rewarded, says the Lord; and they will come back from the land of their hater.
Jer31:23 So the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, Again will these words be used in the land of Judah and in its towns, when I have let their fate be changed: May the blessing of the Lord be on you, O resting-place of righteousness, O holy mountain.
Jer31:28 And it will come about that, as I have been watching over them for the purpose of uprooting and smashing down and overturning and sending destruction and causing trouble; so I will be watching over them for the purpose of building up and planting, says the Lord.
Jer31:32 Not like the agreement which I made with their fathers, on the day when I took them by the hand to be their guide out of the land of Egypt; which agreement was broken by them, and I gave them up, says the Lord.
Jer31:33 But this is the agreement which I will make with the people of Israel after those days, says the Lord; I will put my law in their inner parts, writing it in their hearts; and I will be their God, and they will be my people.
Jer31:34 And no longer will they be teaching every man his neighbour and every man his brother, saying, Get knowledge of the Lord: for they will all have knowledge of me, from the least of them to the greatest of them, says the Lord: for they will have my forgiveness for their evil-doing, and their sin will go from my memory for ever.
Jer31:37 This is what the Lord has said: If the heavens on high may be measured, and the bases of the earth searched out, then I will give up the seed of Israel, because of all they have done, says the Lord.
Jer32:5 And he will take Zedekiah away to Babylon, where he will be till I have pity on him, says the Lord: though you are fighting with the Chaldaeans, things will not go well for you?
Jer32:13 And I gave orders to Baruch in front of them, saying,
Jer32:22 And have given them this land, which you gave your word to their fathers to give them, a land flowing with milk and honey;
Jer32:23 And they came in and took it for their heritage, but they did not give ear to your voice, and were not ruled by your law; they have done nothing of all you gave them orders to do: so you have made all this evil come on them:
Jer32:32 Because of all the evil of the children of Israel and of the children of Judah, which they have done to make me angry, they and their kings, their princes, their priests, and their prophets, and the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem.
Jer32:33 And they have been turning their backs and not their faces to me: and though I was their teacher, getting up early and teaching them, their ears were not open to teaching.
Jer32:35 And they put up the high places of the Baal in the valley of the son of Hinnom, making their sons and their daughters go through the fire to Molech; which I did not give them orders to do, and it never came into my mind that they would do this disgusting thing, causing Judah to be turned out of the way.
Jer32:36 And now the Lord, the God of Israel, has said of this town, about which you say, It is given into the hands of the king of Babylon by the sword and by need of food and by disease:
Jer32:37 See, I will get them together from all the countries where I have sent them in my wrath and in the heat of my passion and in my bitter feeling; and I will let them come back into this place where they may take their rest safely.
Jer32:38 And they will be my people, and I will be their God:
Jer32:39 And I will give them one heart and one way, so that they may go on in the worship of me for ever, for their good and the good of their children after them:
Jer32:40 And I will make an eternal agreement with them, that I will never give them up, but ever do them good; and I will put the fear of me in their hearts, so that they will not go away from me.
Jer32:41 And truly, I will take pleasure in doing them good, and all my heart and soul will be given to planting them in this land in good faith.
Jer32:42 For the Lord has said: As I have made all this great evil come on this people, so I will send on them all the good which I said about them.
Jer32:43 And there will be trading in fields in this land of which you say, It is a waste, without man or beast; it is given into the hands of the Chaldaeans.
Jer33:5 ... and to make them full of the dead bodies of men whom I have put to death in my wrath and in my passion, and because of whose evil-doing I have kept my face covered from this town.
Jer33:6 See, I will make it healthy and well again, I will even make them well; I will let them see peace and good faith in full measure.
Jer33:7 And I will let the fate of Judah and of Israel be changed, building them up as at first.
Jer33:8 And I will make them clean from all their sin, with which they have been sinning against me; I will have forgiveness for all their sins, with which they have been sinning against me, and with which they have done evil against me.
Jer33:10 This is what the Lord has said: There will again be sounding in this place, of which you say, It is a waste, without man and without beast; even in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem which are waste and unpeopled, without man and without beast,
Jer33:12 This is what the Lord of armies has said: Again there will be in this place, which is a waste, without man and without beast, and in all its towns, a resting-place where the keepers of sheep will make their flocks take rest.
Jer33:16 In those days, Judah will have salvation and Jerusalem will be safe: and this is the name which will be given to her: The Lord is our righteousness.
Jer33:20 The Lord has said: If it is possible for my agreement of the day and the night to be broken, so that day and night no longer come at their fixed times,
Jer33:24 Have you taken note of what these people have said, The two families, which the Lord took for himself, he has given up? This they say, looking down on my people as being, in their eyes, no longer a nation.
Jer33:26 Then I will give up caring for the seed of Jacob and of David my servant, so that I will not take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will let their fate be changed and will have mercy on them.
Jer34:8 The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, after King Zedekiah had made an agreement with all the people in Jerusalem, to give news in public that servants were to be made free;
Jer34:10 And this was done by all the rulers and the people who had taken part in the agreement, and every one let his man-servant and his servant-girl go free, not to be used as servants any longer; they did so, and let them go.
Jer34:11 But later, they took back again the servants and the servant-girls whom they had let go free, and put them again under the yoke as servants and servant-girls.
Jer34:13 The Lord, the God of Israel, has said, I made an agreement with your fathers on the day when I took them out of Egypt, out of the prison-house, saying,
Jer34:14 At the end of seven years every man is to let go his countryman who is a Hebrew, who has become yours for a price and has been your servant for six years; you are to let him go free: but your fathers gave no attention and did not give ear.
Jer34:15 And now, turning away from evil, you had done what is right in my eyes, giving a public undertaking for every man to make his neighbour free; and you had made an agreement before me in the house which is named by my name:
Jer34:16 But again you have put shame on my name, and you have taken back, every one his man-servant and his servant-girl, whom you had sent away free, and you have put them under the yoke again to be your servants and servant-girls.
Jer34:17 And so the Lord has said, You have not given ear to me and undertaken publicly, every man to let loose his countryman and his neighbour: see, I undertake to let loose against you the sword and disease and need of food; and I will send you wandering among all the kingdoms of the earth.
Jer34:20 Even these I will give up into the hands of their haters and into the hands of those who have designs against their lives: and their dead bodies will become food for the birds of heaven and the beasts of the earth.
Jer34:21 And Zedekiah, king of Judah, and his rulers I will give into the hands of their haters and into the hands of those who have designs against their lives, and into the hands of the king of Babylon's army which has gone away from you.
Jer34:22 See, I will give orders, says the Lord, and make them come back to this town; and they will make war on it and take it and have it burned with fire: and I will make the towns of Judah waste and unpeopled.
Jer35:2 Go into the house of the Rechabites, and have talk with them, and take them into the house of the Lord, into one of the rooms, and give them wine.
Jer35:5 And I put before the sons of the Rechabites basins full of wine and cups, and I said to them, Take some wine.
Jer35:6 But they said, We will take no wine: for Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, gave us orders, saying, You are to take no wine, you or your sons, for ever:
Jer35:7 And you are to make no houses, or put in seed, or get vine-gardens planted, or have any: but all your days you are to go on living in tents, so that you may have a long life in the land where you are living as in a strange country.
Jer35:8 And we have kept the rules of Jonadab, the son of Rechab our father, in everything which he gave us orders to do, drinking no wine all our days, we and our wives and our sons and our daughters;
Jer35:10 But we have been living in tents, and have done everything which Jonadab our father gave us orders to do.
Jer35:11 But when Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, came up into the land, we said, Come, let us go to Jerusalem, away from the army of the Chaldaeans and from the army of the Aramaeans: and so we are living in Jerusalem.
Jer35:13 This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Go and say to the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, Is there no hope of teaching you to give ear to my words? says the Lord.
Jer35:14 The orders which Jonadab, the son of Rechab, gave to his sons to take no wine, are done, and to this day they take no wine, for they do the orders of their father: but I have sent my words to you, getting up early and sending them, and you have not given ear to me.
Jer35:15 And I have sent you all my servants the prophets, getting up early and sending them, saying, Come back, now, every man from his evil way, and do better, and go not after other gods to become their servants, and you will go on living in the land which I have given to you and to your fathers: but your ears have not been open, and you have not given attention to me.
Jer35:16 Though the sons of Jonadab the son of Rechab have done the orders of their father which he gave them, this people has not given ear to me:
Jer35:17 For this reason the Lord, the God of armies, the God of Israel, has said, See, I will send on Judah and on all the people of Jerusalem all the evil which I said I would do to them: because I sent my words to them, but they did not give ear; crying out to them, but they gave no answer.
Jer35:18 But to the Rechabites Jeremiah said, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: Because you have done the orders of Jonadab your father, and have kept his rules, and done everything as he gave you orders to do it;
Jer36:3 It may be that the people of Judah, hearing of all the evil which it is my purpose to do to them, will be turned, every man from his evil ways; so that they may have my forgiveness for their evil-doing and their sin.
Jer36:7 It may be that their prayer for grace will go up to the Lord, and that every man will be turned from his evil ways: for great is the wrath and the passion made clear by the Lord against this people.
Jer36:13 Then Micaiah gave them an account of all the words which had come to his ears when Baruch was reading the book to the people.
Jer36:14 So all the rulers sent Jehudi, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Shelemiah, the son of Cushi, to Baruch, saying, Take in your hand the book from which you have been reading to the people and come. So Baruch, the son of Neriah, took the book in his hand and came down to them.
Jer36:15 Then they said to him, Be seated now, and give us a reading from it. So Baruch did so, reading it to them.
Jer36:16 Now it came about that, after hearing all the words, they said to one another in fear, We will certainly give the king an account of all these words.
Jer36:17 And questioning Baruch, they said, Say now, how did you put all these words down in writing from his mouth?
Jer36:19 Then the rulers said to Baruch, Go and put yourself in a safe place, you and Jeremiah, and let no man have knowledge of where you are.
Jer36:26 And the king gave orders to Jerahmeel, the king's son, and Seraiah, the son of Azriel, and Shelemiah, the son of Abdeel, to take Baruch the scribe and Jeremiah the prophet: but the Lord kept them safe.
Jer36:31 And I will send punishment on him and on his seed and on his servants for their evil-doing; I will send on them and on the people of Jerusalem and the men of Judah, all the evil which I said against them, but they did not give ear.
Jer37:3 And Zedekiah the king sent Jehucal, the son of Shelemiah, and Zephaniah, the son of Maaseiah the priest, to the prophet Jeremiah, saying, Make prayer now to the Lord our God for us.
Jer37:4 (Now Jeremiah was going about among the people, for they had not put him in prison.
Jer37:5 And Pharaoh's army had come out from Egypt: and the Chaldaeans, who were attacking Jerusalem, hearing news of them, went away from Jerusalem.)
Jer37:7 The Lord, the God of Israel, has said: This is what you are to say to the king of Judah who sent you to get directions from me: See, Pharaoh's army, which has come out to your help, will go back to Egypt, to their land.
Jer37:9 The Lord has said, Have no false hopes, saying to yourselves, The Chaldaeans will go away from us: for they will not go away.
Jer37:10 For even if you had overcome all the army of the Chaldaeans fighting against you, and there were only wounded men among them, still they would get up, every man in his tent, and put this town on fire.
Jer37:15 And the rulers were angry with Jeremiah, and gave him blows and put him in prison in the house of Jonathan the scribe: for they had made that the prison.
Jer37:19 Where now are your prophets who said to you, The king of Babylon will not come against you and against this land?
Jer37:21 Then by the order of Zedekiah the king, Jeremiah was put into the place of the armed watchmen, and they gave him every day a cake of bread from the street of the bread-makers, till all the bread in the town was used up. So Jeremiah was kept in the place of the armed watchmen.
Jer38:4 Then the rulers said to the king, Let this man be put to death, because he is putting fear into the hearts of the men of war who are still in the town, and into the hearts of the people, by saying such things to them: this man is not working for the well-being of the people, but for their damage.
Jer38:5 Then Zedekiah the king said, See, he is in your hands: for the king was not able to do anything against them.
Jer38:6 So they took Jeremiah and put him into the water-hole of Malchiah, the king's son, in the place of the armed watchmen: and they let Jeremiah down with cords. And in the hole there was no water, but wet earth: and Jeremiah went down into the wet earth.
Jer38:7 Now it came to the ears of Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, an unsexed servant in the king's house, that they had put Jeremiah into the water-hole; the king at that time being seated in the doorway of Benjamin:
Jer38:13 So pulling Jeremiah up with the cords they got him out of the water-hole: and Jeremiah was kept in the place of the armed watchmen.
Jer38:16 So King Zedekiah gave his oath to Jeremiah secretly, saying, By the living Lord, who gave us our life, I will not put you to death, or give you up to these men who are desiring to take your life.
Jer38:18 But if you do not go out to the king of Babylon's captains, then this town will be given into the hands of the Chaldaeans and they will put it on fire, and you will not get away from them.
Jer38:19 And King Zedekiah said to Jeremiah, I am troubled on account of the Jews who have gone over to the Chaldaeans, for fear that they may give me up to them and they will put me to shame.
Jer38:23 And they will take all your wives and your children out to the Chaldaeans: and you will not get away out of their hands, but will be taken by the hands of the king of Babylon: and this town will be burned with fire.
Jer38:25 But if it comes to the ears of the rulers that I have been talking with you, and they come and say to you, Give us word now of what you have said to the king and what the king said to you, keeping nothing back and we will not put you to death;
Jer38:26 Then you are to say to them, I made my request to the king, that he would not send me back to my death in Jonathan's house.
Jer38:27 Then all the rulers came to Jeremiah, questioning him: and he gave them an answer in the words the king had given him orders to say. So they said nothing more to him; for the thing was not made public.
Jer39:4 And when Zedekiah, king of Judah, and all the men of war saw it, they went in flight from the town by night, by the way of the king's garden, through the doorway between the two walls: and they went out by the Arabah.
Jer39:5 But the Chaldaean army went after them and overtook Zedekiah in the lowlands of Jericho: and they made him a prisoner and took him up to Nebuchadrezzar, king of Babylon, to Riblah in the land of Hamath, to be judged by him.
Jer39:10 But Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, let the poorest of the people, who had nothing whatever, go on living in the land of Judah, and gave them vine-gardens and fields at the same time.
Jer40:3 *** and the Lord has made it come, and has done as he said; because of your sin against the Lord in not giving ear to his voice; and that is why this thing has come on you.
Jer40:7 Now when it came to the ears of all the captains of the forces who were in the field, and their men, that the king of Babylon had made Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, ruler in the land, and had put under his care the men and women and children, all the poorest of the land, those who had not been taken away to Babylon;
Jer40:8 Then they came to Gedaliah in Mizpah, even Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and Seraiah, the son of Tanhumeth, and the sons of Ephai the Netophathite, and Jezaniah, the son of the Maacathite, they and their men.
Jer40:9 And Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan, took an oath to them and their men, saying, Have no fear of the servants of the Chaldaeans: go on living in the land, and become the servants of the king of Babylon, and all will be well.
Jer40:10 As for me, I will be living in Mizpah as your representative before the Chaldaeans who come to us: but you are to get in your wine and summer fruits and oil and put them in your vessels, and make living-places for yourselves in the towns which you have taken.
Jer40:11 In the same way, when all the Jews who were in Moab and among the children of Ammon and in Edom and in all the countries, had news that the king of Babylon had let Judah keep some of its people and that he had put over them Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan;
Jer40:14 And said to him, Has it come to your knowledge that Baalis, the king of the children of Ammon, has sent Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, to take your life? But Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, put no faith in what they said.
Jer41:1 Now it came about in the seventh month that Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, the son of Elishama, of the king's seed, having with him ten men, came to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, in Mizpah; and they had a meal together in Mizpah.
Jer41:6 And Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, went out from Mizpah with the purpose of meeting them, weeping on his way: and it came about that when he was face to face with them he said, Come to Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam.
Jer41:7 And when they came inside the town, Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, and the men who were with him, put them to death and put their bodies into a deep hole.
Jer41:8 But there were ten men among them who said to Ishmael, Do not put us to death, for we have secret stores, in the country, of grain and oil and honey. So he did not put them to death with their countrymen.
Jer41:10 Then Ishmael took away as prisoners all the rest of the people who were in Mizpah, the king's daughters and all the people still in Mizpah, whom Nebuzaradan, the captain of the armed men, had put under the care of Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam: Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, took them away prisoners with the purpose of going over to the children of Ammon.
Jer41:16 Then Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces who were with him, took all the rest of the people whom Ishmael, the son of Nethaniah, had made prisoners, after he had put to death Gedaliah, the son of Ahikam, the people from Mizpah, that is, the men of war and the women and the children and the unsexed servants, whom he had taken back with him from Gibeon:
Jer42:2 And said to Jeremiah the prophet, Let our request come before you, and make prayer for us to the Lord your God, even for this small band of us; for we are only a small band out of what was a great number, as your eyes may see:
Jer42:3 That the Lord your God may make clear to us the way in which we are to go and what we are to do.
Jer42:4 Then Jeremiah the prophet said to them, I have given ear to you; see, I will make prayer to the Lord your God, as you have said; and it will be that, whatever the Lord may say in answer to you, I will give you word of it, keeping nothing back.
Jer42:5 Then they said to Jeremiah, May the Lord be a true witness against us in good faith, if we do not do everything which the Lord your God sends you to say to us.
Jer42:6 If it is good or if it is evil, we will be guided by the voice of the Lord our God, to whom we are sending you; so that it may be well for us when we give ear to the voice of the Lord our God.
Jer42:9 And said to them, These are the words of the Lord, the God of Israel, to whom you sent me to put your request before him:
Jer42:10 If you still go on living in the land, then I will go on building you up and not pulling you down, planting you and not uprooting you: for my purpose of doing evil to you has been changed.
Jer42:11 Have no fear of the king of Babylon, of whom you are now in fear; have no fear of him, says the Lord: for I am with you to keep you safe and to give you salvation from his hands.
Jer42:12 And I will have mercy on you, so that he may have mercy on you and let you go back to your land.
Jer42:13 But if you say, We have no desire to go on living in this land; and do not give ear to the voice of the Lord your God,
Jer42:14 Saying, No, but we will go into the land of Egypt, where we will not see war, or be hearing the sound of the horn, or be in need of food; there we will make our living-place;
Jer42:15 Then give ear now to the word of the Lord, O you last of Judah: the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said, If your minds are fixed on going into Egypt and stopping there;
Jer42:16 Then it will come about that the sword, which is the cause of your fear, will overtake you there in the land of Egypt, and need of food, which you are fearing, will go after you there in Egypt; and there death will come to you.
Jer42:17 Such will be the fate of all the men whose minds are fixed on going into Egypt and stopping there; they will come to their end by the sword, by being short of food, and by disease: not one of them will keep his life or get away from the evil which I will send on them.
Jer42:18 For this is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: As my wrath and passion have been let loose on the people of Jerusalem, so will my passion be let loose on you when you go into Egypt: and you will become an oath and a cause of wonder and a curse and a name of shame; and you will never see this place again.
Jer42:19 The Lord has said about you, O last of Judah, Go not into Egypt: be certain that I have given witness to you this day.
Jer42:20 For you have been acting with deceit in your hearts; for you sent me to the Lord your God, saying, Make prayer for us to the Lord our God, and give us word of everything he may say, and we will do it.
Jer42:21 And this day I have made it clear to you, and you have not given ear to the voice of the Lord your God in anything for which he has sent me to you.
Jer42:22 And now be certain that you will come to your end by the sword and by being short of food and by disease, in the place to which you are pleased to go for a living-place.
Jer43:1 And it came about that when Jeremiah had come to the end of giving all the people the words of the Lord their God, which the Lord their God had sent him to say to them, even all these words,
Jer43:2 Then Azariah, the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan, the son of Kareah, and all the men of pride, said to Jeremiah, You have said what is false: the Lord our God has not sent you to say, You are not to go into the land of Egypt and make your living-place there:
Jer43:3 But Baruch, the son of Neriah, is moving you against us, to give us up into the hands of the Chaldaeans so that they may put us to death, and take us away prisoners into Babylon.
Jer43:7 And they came into the land of Egypt; for they did not give ear to the voice of the Lord: and they came to Tahpanhes.
Jer43:10 And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, I will send and take Nebuchadrezzar, the king of Babylon, my servant, and he will put the seat of his kingdom on these stones which have been put in a safe place here by you; and his tent will be stretched over them.
Jer44:2 The Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: You have seen all the evil which I have sent on Jerusalem and on all the towns of Judah; and now, this day they are waste and unpeopled;
Jer44:3 Because of the evil which they have done, moving me to wrath by burning perfumes in worship to other gods, who were not their gods or yours or the gods of their fathers.
Jer44:4 And I sent all my servants the prophets to you, getting up early and sending them, saying, Do not do this disgusting thing which is hated by me.
Jer44:5 But they gave no attention, and their ears were not open so that they might be turned from their evil-doing and from burning perfume to other gods.
Jer44:7 So now, the Lord, the God of armies, the God of Israel, has said, Why are you doing this great evil against yourselves, causing every man and woman, little child and baby at the breast among you in Judah to be cut off till not one is still living;
Jer44:8 Moving me to wrath with the work of your hands, burning perfumes to other gods in the land of Egypt, where you have gone to make a place for yourselves, so that you may become a curse and a name of shame among all the nations of the earth?
Jer44:9 Have you no memory of the evil-doing of your fathers, and the evil-doing of the kings of Judah, and the evil-doing of their wives, and the evil which you yourselves have done, and the evil which your wives have done, in the land of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
Jer44:10 Even to this day their hearts are not broken, and they have no fear, and have not gone in the way of my law or of my rules which I gave to you and to your fathers.
Jer44:11 So this is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: See, my face will be turned against you for evil, for the cutting off of all Judah;
Jer44:12 And I will take the last of Judah, whose minds are fixed on going into the land of Egypt and stopping there, and they will all come to their end, falling in the land of Egypt by the sword and by being short of food and by disease; death will overtake them, from the least to the greatest, death by the sword and by need of food: they will become an oath and a cause of wonder and a curse and a name of shame.
Jer44:14 So that not one of the rest of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt and are living there, will get away or keep his life, to come back to the land of Judah where they are hoping to come back and be living again: for not one will come back, but only those who are able to get away.
Jer44:16 As for the word which you have said to us in the name of the Lord, we will not give ear to you.
Jer44:17 But we will certainly do every word which has gone out of our mouths, burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her as we did, we and our fathers and our kings and our rulers, in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then we had food enough and did well and saw no evil.
Jer44:18 But from the time when we gave up burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her, we have been in need of all things, and have been wasted by the sword and by need of food.
Jer44:19 And the women said, When we were burning perfumes to the queen of heaven and draining out drink offerings to her, did we make cakes in her image and give her our drink offerings without the knowledge of our husbands?
Jer44:21 The perfumes which you have been burning in the towns of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem, you and your fathers and your kings and your rulers and the people of the land, had the Lord no memory of them, and did he not keep them in mind?
Jer44:22 And the Lord was no longer able to put up with the evil of your doings and the disgusting things you did; and because of this your land has become a waste and a cause of wonder and a curse, with no one living in it, as at this day.
Jer44:23 Because you have been burning perfumes, and sinning against the Lord, and have not given ear to the voice of the Lord, or gone in the way of his law or his rules or his orders; for this reason this evil has come on you, as it is today.
Jer44:24 Further, Jeremiah said to all the people and all the women, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all those of Judah who are living in Egypt:
Jer44:25 This is what the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, has said: You women have said with your mouths, and with your hands you have done what you said, We will certainly give effect to the oaths we have made, to have perfumes burned to the queen of heaven and drink offerings drained out to her: then give effect to your oaths and do them.
Jer44:26 And now give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who are living in the land of Egypt: Truly, I have taken an oath by my great name, says the Lord, that my name is no longer to be named in the mouth of any man of Judah in all the land of Egypt, saying, By the life of the Lord God.
Jer44:27 See, I am watching over them for evil and not for good: all the men of Judah who are in the land of Egypt will be wasted by the sword and by need of food till there is an end of them.
Jer44:28 And those who get away safe from the sword will come back from the land of Egypt to the land of Judah, a very small number; and all the rest of Judah, who have gone into the land of Egypt and are living there, will see whose word has effect, mine or theirs.
Jer44:29 And this will be the sign to you, says the Lord, that I will give you punishment in this place, so that you may see that my words will certainly have effect against you for evil:

Jer49:35 This is what the Lord of armies has said: See, I will have the bow of Elam, their chief strength, broken.

Lam2:10 The responsible men of the daughter of Zion are seated on the earth without a word; they have put dust on their heads, they are clothed in haircloth: the heads of the virgins of Jerusalem are bent down to the earth.
Lam2:12 They say to their mothers, Where is grain and wine? when they are falling like the wounded in the open squares of the town, when their life is drained out on their mother's breast.
Lam2:15 All who go by make a noise with their hands at you; they make hisses, shaking their heads at the daughter of Jerusalem, and saying, Is this the town which was the crown of everything beautiful, the joy of all the earth?

Lam3:64 You will give them their reward, O Lord, answering to the work of their hands.
Lam3:65 You will let their hearts be covered over with your curse on them.
Lam3:66 You will go after them in wrath, and put an end to them from under the heavens of the Lord.
Lam4:4 The tongue of the child at the breast is fixed to the roof of his mouth for need of drink: the young children are crying out for bread, and no man gives it to them.
Lam4:7 Her holy ones were cleaner than snow, they were whiter than milk, their bodies were redder than corals, their form was as the sapphire:
Lam4:8 Their face is blacker than night; in the streets no one has knowledge of them: their skin is hanging on their bones, they are dry, they have become like wood.
Lam4:13 It is because of the sins of her prophets and the evil-doing of her priests, by whom the blood of the upright has been drained out in her.
Lam4:14 They are wandering like blind men in the streets, they are made unclean with blood, so that their robes may not be touched by men.
Lam4:15 Away! unclean! they were crying out to them, Away! away! let there be no touching: when they went away in flight and wandering, men said among the nations, There is no further resting-place for them.
Lam4:16 The face of the Lord has sent them in all directions; he will no longer take care of them: they had no respect for the priests, they gave no honour to the old men.
Lam4:17 Our eyes are still wasting away in looking for our false help: we have been watching for a nation unable to give salvation.
Lam4:18 They go after our steps so that we may not go in our streets: our end is near, our days are numbered; for our end has come.
Lam4:19 Those who went after us were quicker than the eagles of the heaven, driving us before them on the mountains, waiting secretly for us in the waste land.
Lam4:20 Our breath of life, he on whom the holy oil was put, was taken in their holes; of whom we said, Under his shade we will be living among the nations.

Lam5:4 We give money for a drink of water, we get our wood for a price.
Lam5:5 Our attackers are on our necks: overcome with weariness, we have no rest.
Lam5:6 We have given our hands to the Egyptians and to the Assyrians so that we might have enough bread.
Lam5:7 Our fathers were sinners and are dead; and the weight of their evil-doing is on us.
Lam5:8 Servants are ruling over us, and there is no one to make us free from their hands.
Lam5:9 We put our lives in danger to get our bread, because of the sword of the waste land.
Lam5:10 Our skin is heated like an oven because of our burning heat from need of food.
Lam5:12 Their hands put princes to death by hanging: the faces of old men were not honoured.
Lam5:15 The joy of our hearts is ended; our dancing is changed into sorrow.
Lam5:16 The crown has been taken from our head: sorrow is ours, for we are sinners.
Lam5:17 Because of this our hearts are feeble; for these things our eyes are dark;
Lam5:20 Why have we gone from your memory for ever? why have you been turned away from us for so long?
Lam5:21 Make us come back to you, O Lord, and let us be turned; make our days new again as in the past.
Lam5:22 But you have quite given us up; you are full of wrath against us.
Eze1:5 And in the heart of it were the forms of four living beings. And this was what they were like; they had the form of a man.
Eze1:7 And their feet were straight feet; and the under sides of their feet were like the feet of oxen; and they were shining like polished brass.
Eze1:12 Every one of them went straight forward; wherever the spirit was to go they went; they went on without turning.
Eze1:25 And there was a voice from the top of the arch which was over their heads: when they came to rest they let down their wings.
Eze1:26 And on the top of the arch which was over their heads was the form of a king's seat, like a sapphire stone; and on the form of the seat was the form of a man seated on it on high.
Eze2:3 And he said to me, Son of man, I am sending you to the children of Israel, to an uncontrolled nation which has gone against me: they and their fathers have been sinners against me even to this very day.
Eze2:4 And the children are hard and stiff-hearted; I am sending you to them: and you are to say to them, These are the words of the Lord.
Eze2:5 And they, if they give ear to you or if they do not give ear (for they are an uncontrolled people), will see that there has been a prophet among them.
Eze2:6 And you, son of man, have no fear of them or of their words, even if sharp thorns are round you and you are living among scorpions: have no fear of their words and do not be overcome by their looks, for they are an uncontrolled people.
Eze2:7 And you are to give them my words, if they give ear to you or if they do not: for they are uncontrolled.
Eze3:4 And he said to me, Son of man, go now to the children of Israel, and say my words to them.
Eze3:6 Not to a number of peoples whose talk is strange and whose language is hard and whose words are not clear to you. Truly, if I sent you to them they would give ear to you.
Eze3:7 But the children of Israel will not give ear to you; for they have no mind to give ear to me: for all the children of Israel have a hard brow and a stiff heart.
Eze3:8 See, I have made your face hard against their faces, and your brow hard against their brows.
Eze3:9 Like a diamond harder than rock I have made your brow: have no fear of them and do not be overcome by their looks, for they are an uncontrolled people.
Eze3:11 And go now to those who have been taken away as prisoners, to the children of your people, and say to them, This is what the Lord has said; if they give ear or if they do not.
Eze3:15 Then I came to those who had been taken away as prisoners, who were at Telabib by the river Chebar, and I was seated among them full of wonder for seven days.
Eze3:17 Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the children of Israel: so give ear to the word of my mouth, and give them word from me of their danger.
Eze3:25 But see, O son of man, I will put bands on you, prisoning you in them, and you will not go out among them:
Eze3:26 And I will make your tongue fixed to the roof of your mouth, so that you have no voice and may not make protests to them: for they are an uncontrolled people.
Eze3:27 But when I have talk with you I will make your mouth open, and you are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: Let the hearer give ear; and as for him who will not, let him keep his ears shut: for they are an uncontrolled people.
Eze4:4 Then, stretching yourself out on your left side, take the sin of the children of Israel on yourself: for as long as you are stretched out, so long will the sin of the children of Israel be on you.
Eze4:5 For I have had the years of their sin measured for you by a number of days, even three hundred and ninety days: and you will take on yourself the sin of the children of Israel.
Eze4:13 And the Lord said, Even so the children of Israel will have unclean bread for their food among the nations where I am driving them.
Eze4:16 And he said to me, Son of man, see, I will take away from Jerusalem her necessary bread: they will take their bread by weight and with care, measuring out their drinking-water with fear and wonder:
Eze4:17 So that they may be in need of bread and water and be wondering at one another, wasting away in their sin.
Eze5:7 For this cause the Lord has said: Because you have been more uncontrolled than the nations round about you, and have not been guided by my rules or kept my orders, but have kept the orders of the nations round about you;
Eze5:12 A third of you will come to death from disease, wasting away among you through need of food; a third will be put to the sword round about you; and a third I will send away to every wind, letting loose a sword after them.
Eze5:13 So my wrath will be complete and my passion will come to rest on them; and they will be certain that I the Lord have given the word of decision, when my wrath against them is complete.
Eze5:16 When I send on you the evil arrows of disease, causing destruction, which I will send to put an end to you; and, further, I will take away your necessary food.
Eze6:3 You mountains of Israel, give ear to the words of the Lord: this is what the Lord has said to the mountains and the hills, to the waterways and the valleys: See, I, even I, am sending on you a sword for the destruction of your high places.
Eze6:4 And your altars will be made waste, and your sun-images will be broken: and I will have your dead men placed before your images.
Eze6:5 And I will put the dead bodies of the children of Israel in front of their images, sending your bones in all directions about your altars.
Eze6:6 In all your living-places the towns will become broken walls, and the high places made waste; so that your altars may be broken down and made waste, and your images broken and ended, and so that your sun-images may be cut down and your works rubbed out.
Eze6:7 And the dead will be falling down among you, and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze6:8 But still, I will keep a small band safe from the sword among the nations, when you are sent wandering among the countries.
Eze6:9 And those of you who are kept safe will have me in mind among the nations where they have been taken away as prisoners, how I sent punishment on their hearts which were untrue to me, and on their eyes which were turned to their false gods: and they will be full of hate for themselves because of the evil things which they have done in all their disgusting ways.
Eze6:10 And they will be certain that I am the Lord: not for nothing did I say that I would do this evil to them.
Eze6:11 This is what the Lord has said: Give blows with your hand, stamping with your foot, and say, O sorrow! because of all the evil and disgusting ways of the children of Israel: for death will overtake them by the sword and through need of food and by disease.
Eze6:12 He who is far away will come to his death by disease; he who is near will be put to the sword; he who is shut up will come to his death through need of food; and I will give full effect to my passion against them.
Eze6:13 And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when their dead men are stretched among their images round about their altars on every high hill, on all the tops of the mountains, and under every branching tree, and under every thick oak-tree, the places where they made sweet smells to all their images.
Eze6:14 And my hand will be stretched out against them, making the land waste and unpeopled, from the waste land to Riblah, through all their living-places: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze7:11 Violent behaviour has been lifted up into a rod of evil; it will not be slow in coming, it will not keep back.
Eze7:12 The time has come, the day is near: let not him who gives a price for goods be glad, or him who gets the price have sorrow:
Eze7:13 For the trader will not go back to the things for which he had his price, even while he is still living:
Eze7:14 And he who has given a price for goods will not get them, for my wrath is on all of them.
Eze7:19 They will put out their silver into the streets, and their gold will be as an unclean thing; their silver and their gold will not be able to keep them safe in the day of the wrath of the Lord; they will not get their desire or have food for their need: because it has been the cause of their falling into sin.
Eze7:20 As for their beautiful ornament, they had put it on high, and had made the images of their disgusting and hated things in it: for this cause I have made it an unclean thing to them.
Eze7:21 And I will give it into the hands of men from strange lands who will take it by force, and to the evil-doers of the earth to have for themselves; and they will make it unholy.
Eze7:22 And my face will be turned away from them, and they will make my secret place unholy: violent men will go into it and make it unholy.
Eze7:24 For this reason I will send the worst of the nations and they will take their houses for themselves: I will make the pride of their strength come to an end; and their holy places will be made unclean.
Eze7:25 Shaking fear is coming; and they will be looking for peace, and there will be no peace.
Eze7:26 Destruction will come on destruction, and one story after another; and the vision of the prophet will be shamed, and knowledge of the law will come to an end among the priests, and wisdom among the old.
Eze7:27 The king will give himself up to sorrow, and the ruler will be clothed with wonder, and the hands of the people of the land will be troubled: I will give them punishment for their ways, judging them as it is right for them to be judged; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze8:9 And he said to me, Go in and see the evil and disgusting things which they are doing here.
Eze8:12 And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen what the responsible men of the children of Israel do in the dark, every man in his room of pictured images? for they say, The Lord does not see us; the Lord has gone away from the land.
Eze8:13 Then he said to me, You will see even more disgusting things which they do.
Eze8:17 Then he said to me, Have you seen this, O son of man? is it a small thing to the children of Judah that they do the disgusting things which they are doing here? for they have made the land full of violent behaviour, making me angry again and again: and see, they put the branch to my nose.
Eze8:18 For this reason I will let loose my wrath: my eye will not have mercy, and I will have no pity.
Eze9:2 And six men came from the way of the higher doorway looking to the north, every man with his axe in his hand: and one man among them was clothed in linen, with a writer's inkpot at his side. And they went in and took their places by the brass altar.
Eze9:5 And to these he said in my hearing, Go through the town after him using your axes: do not let your eyes have mercy, and have no pity:
Eze9:6 Give up to destruction old men and young men and virgins, little children and women: but do not come near any man who has the mark on him: and make a start at my holy place. So they made a start with the old men who were before the house.
Eze9:7 And he said to them, Make the house unclean, make the open places full of dead: go forward and send destruction on the town.
Eze9:8 Now while they were doing so, and I was untouched, I went down on my face, and crying out, I said, Ah, Lord! will you give all the rest of Israel to destruction in letting loose your wrath on Jerusalem?
Eze9:9 Then he said to me, The sin of the children of Israel and Judah is very, very great, and the land is full of blood and the town full of evil ways: for they say, The Lord has gone away from the land, and the Lord does not see.
Eze9:10 And as for me, my eye will not have mercy, and I will have no pity, but I will send the punishment of their ways on their heads.
Eze10:11 When they were moving, they went on their four sides without turning; they went after the head in the direction in which it was looking; they went without turning.
Eze10:12 And the edges of the four wheels were full of eyes round about.
Eze10:16 And when the winged ones went, the wheels went by their side: and when their wings were lifted to take them up from the earth, the wheels were not turned from their side.
Eze10:19 And the winged ones, lifting up their wings, went up from the earth before my eyes, with the wheels by their side: and they came to rest at the east doorway of the Lord's house; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them on high.
Eze10:20 This is the living being which I saw under the God of Israel by the river Chebar; and it was clear to me that they were the winged ones.
Eze10:22 As for the form of their faces, they were the faces whose form I saw by the river Chebar; when they went, every one of them went straight forward.
Eze11:3 Who say, This is not the time for building houses: this town is the cooking-pot and we are the flesh.
Eze11:4 For this cause be a prophet against them, be a prophet, O son of man.
Eze11:5 And the spirit of the Lord came on me, and he said to me, Say, These are the words of the Lord: This is what you have said, O children of Israel; what comes into your mind is clear to me.
Eze11:6 You have made great the number of your dead in this town, you have made its streets full of dead men.
Eze11:7 For this reason the Lord has said: Your dead whom you have put down in its streets, they are the flesh, and this town is the cooking-pot: but I will make you come out from inside it.
Eze11:8 You have been fearing the sword, and I will send the sword on you, says the Lord.
Eze11:9 I will make you come out from inside the town and will give you up into the hands of men from other lands, and will be judge among you.
Eze11:10 You will come to your death by the sword; and I will be your judge in the land of Israel; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze11:11 This town will not be your cooking-pot, and you will not be the flesh inside it; I will be your judge at the limit of the land of Israel;
Eze11:12 And you will be certain that I am the Lord: for you have not been guided by my rules or given effect to my orders, but you have been living by the orders of the nations round about you.
Eze11:15 Son of man, your countrymen, your relations, and all the children of Israel, all of them, are those to whom the people of Jerusalem have said, Go far from the Lord; this land is given to us for a heritage:
Eze11:16 For this reason say, This is what the Lord has said: Though I have had them moved far off among the nations, and though I have sent them wandering among the countries, still I have been a safe place for them for a little time in the countries where they have come.
Eze11:17 Then say, This is what the Lord has said: I will get you together from the peoples, and make you come out of the countries where you have been sent in flight, and I will give you the land of Israel.
Eze11:18 And they will come there, and take away all the hated and disgusting things from it.
Eze11:19 And I will give them a new heart, and I will put a new spirit in them; and I will take the heart of stone out of their flesh and give them a heart of flesh:
Eze11:20 So that they may be guided by my rules and keep my orders and do them: and they will be to me a people, and I will be to them a God.
Eze11:21 But as for those whose heart goes after their hated and disgusting things, I will send on their heads the punishment of their ways, says the Lord.
Eze11:22 Then the wings of the winged ones were lifted up, and the wheels were by their side; and the glory of the God of Israel was over them on high.
Eze12:2 Son of man, you are living among an uncontrolled people, who have eyes to see but see not, and ears for hearing but they do not give ear; for they are an uncontrolled people.
Eze12:3 And you, O son of man, by day, before their eyes, get ready the vessels of one who is taken away, and go away from your place to another place before their eyes: it may be that they will see, though they are an uncontrolled people.
Eze12:4 By day, before their eyes, take out your vessels like those of one who is taken away: and go out in the evening before their eyes, like those who are taken away as prisoners.
Eze12:5 Make a hole in the wall, before their eyes, and go out through it.
Eze12:6 And before their eyes, take your goods on your back and go out in the dark; go with your face covered: for I have made you a sign to the children of Israel.
Eze12:7 And I did as I was ordered: I took out my vessels by day, like those of one who is taken away, and in the evening I made a hole through the wall with a tent-pin; and in the dark I went out, taking my things on my back before their eyes.
Eze12:10 You are to say to them, This is what the Lord has said: This word has to do with the ruler in Jerusalem and all the children of Israel in it.
Eze12:11 Say, I am your sign: as I have done, so will it be done to them: they will go away as prisoners.
Eze12:12 And the ruler who is among them will take his goods on his back in the dark and go out: he will make a hole in the wall through which to go out: he will have his face covered so that he may not be seen.
Eze12:14 And all his helpers round about him and all his armies I will send in flight to every wind; and I will let loose a sword after them.
Eze12:15 And they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I send them in flight among the nations, driving them out through the countries.
Eze12:16 But a small number of them I will keep from the sword, from the need of food, and from disease, so that they may make clear all their disgusting ways among the nations where they come; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze12:19 And say to the people of the land, This is what the Lord has said about the people of Jerusalem and the land of Israel: They will take their food with care and their drink with wonder, so that all the wealth of their land may be taken from it because of the violent ways of the people living in it.
Eze12:20 And the peopled towns will be made waste, and the land will become a wonder; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze12:22 Son of man, what is this saying which you have about the land of Israel, The time is long and every vision comes to nothing?
Eze12:23 For this cause say to them, This is what the Lord has said: I have made this saying come to an end, and it will no longer be used as a common saying in Israel; but say to them, The days are near, and the effect of every vision.
Eze12:25 For I am the Lord; I will say the word and what I say I will do; it will not be put off: for in your days, O uncontrolled people, I will say the word and do it, says the Lord.
Eze12:28 Say to them then, This is what the Lord has said: Not one of my words will be put off any longer, but what I say I will do, says the Lord.
Eze13:2 Son of man, be a prophet against the prophets of Israel, and say to those prophets whose words are the invention of their hearts, Give ear to the word of the Lord;
Eze13:3 This is what the Lord has said: A curse on the foolish prophets who go after the spirit which is in them and have seen nothing!
Eze13:5 You have not gone up into the broken places or made up the wall for the children of Israel to take your place in the fight in the day of the Lord.
Eze13:6 They have seen visions without substance and made use of secret arts, who say, The Lord has said; and the Lord has not sent them: hoping that the word would have effect.
Eze13:7 Have you not seen a vision without substance and have you not falsely made use of secret arts, when you say, The Lord has said; though I have said nothing?
Eze13:8 So this is what the Lord has said: Because your words are without substance and your visions are false, see, I am against you, says the Lord.
Eze13:9 And my hand will be against the prophets who see visions without substance and who make false use of secret arts: they will not be in the secret of my people, and they will not be recorded in the list of the children of Israel, and they will not come into the land of Israel; and it will be clear to you that I am the Lord.
Eze13:10 Because, even because they have been guiding my people into error, saying, Peace; when there is no peace; and in the building of a division wall they put whitewash on it:
Eze13:11 Say to those who put whitewash on it, There will be an overflowing shower; and you, O ice-drops, will come raining down; and it will be broken in two by the storm-wind.
Eze13:12 And when the wall has come down, will they not say to you, Where is the whitewash which you put on it?
Eze13:14 So I will let the wall, which you were covering with whitewash, be broken down; I will have it levelled to the earth so that its base is uncovered: it will come down, and destruction will come on you with it; and it will be clear to you that I am the Lord.
Eze13:15 So I will let loose my passion on the wall in full measure, and on those who put whitewash on it; and I will say to you, Where is the wall, and where are those who put whitewash on it?
Eze13:16 Even the prophets of Israel who say words to Jerusalem, who see visions of peace for her when there is no peace, says the Lord.
Eze13:17 And you, son of man, let your face be turned against the daughters of your people, who are acting the part of prophets at their pleasure; be a prophet against them, and say,
Eze13:18 This is what the Lord has said: A curse is on the women who are stitching bands on all arms and putting veils on the heads of those of every size, so that they may go after souls! Will you go after the souls of my people and keep yourselves safe from death?
Eze13:19 And you have put me to shame among my people for a little barley and some bits of bread, sending death on souls for whom there is no cause of death, and keeping those souls living who have no right to life, by the false words you say to my people who give ear to what is false.
Eze13:20 For this cause the Lord has said: See, I am against your bands with which you go after souls, and I will violently take them off their arms; and I will let loose the souls, even the souls whom you go after freely.
Eze13:21 And I will have your veils violently parted in two, and will make my people free from your hands, and they will no longer be in your power for you to go after them; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze13:22 Because with your false words you have given pain to the heart of the upright man when I had not made him sad; in order to make strong the hands of the evil-doer so that he may not be turned from his evil way and get life:
Eze13:23 For this cause you will see no more foolish visions or make false use of secret arts: and I will make my people free from your power; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze14:3 Son of man, these men have taken their false gods into their hearts and put before their faces the sin which is the cause of their fall: am I to give ear when they come to me for directions?
Eze14:4 For this cause say to them, These are the words of the Lord: Every man of Israel who has taken his false god into his heart, and put before his face the sin which is the cause of his fall, and comes to the prophet; I the Lord will give him an answer by myself in agreement with the number of his false gods;
Eze14:5 So as to take the children of Israel in the thoughts of their hearts, because they have become strange to me through their false gods.
Eze14:6 For this cause say to the children of Israel, These are the words of the Lord: Come back and give up your false gods and let your faces be turned from your disgusting things.
Eze14:8 And my face will be turned against that man, and I will make him a sign and a common saying, cutting him off from among my people; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze14:10 And the punishment of their sin will be on them: the sin of the prophet will be the same as the sin of him who goes to him for directions;
Eze14:11 So that the children of Israel may no longer go wandering away from me, or make themselves unclean with all their wrongdoing; but they will be my people, and I will be their God, says the Lord.
Eze14:13 Son of man, when a land, sinning against me, does wrong, and my hand is stretched out against it, and the support of its bread is broken, and I make it short of food, cutting off man and beast from it:
Eze14:14 Even if these three men, Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, only themselves would they keep safe by their righteousness, says the Lord.
Eze14:16 Even if these three men were in it, by my life, says the Lord, they would not keep safe their sons or daughters, but only themselves, and the land would be made waste.
Eze14:18 Even if these three men were in it, by my life, says the Lord, they would not keep safe their sons or daughters, but only themselves.
Eze14:20 Even if Noah, Daniel, and Job were in it, by my life, says the Lord, they would not keep son or daughter safe; only themselves would they keep safe through their righteousness.
Eze14:22 But truly, there will still be a small band who will be safe, even sons and daughters: and they will come out to you, and you will see their ways and their doings: and you will be comforted about the evil which I have sent on Jerusalem, even about everything I have sent on it.
Eze14:23 They will give you comfort when you see their ways and their doings: and you will be certain that not for nothing have I done all the things I have done in it, says the Lord.
Eze15:7 And my face will be turned against them; and though they have come out of the fire they will be burned up by it; and it will be clear to you that I am the Lord when my face is turned against them.
Eze15:8 And I will make the land a waste because they have done evil, says the Lord.
Eze16:21 That you put my children to death and gave them up to go through the fire to them?
Eze16:27 Now, then, my hand is stretched out against you, cutting down your fixed amount, and I have given you up to the desire of your haters, the daughters of the Philistines who are shamed by your loose ways.
Eze16:28 And you went with the Assyrians, because of your desire which was without measure; you were acting like a loose woman with them, and still you had not enough.
Eze16:33 They give payment to all loose women: but you give rewards to your lovers, offering them payment so that they may come to you on every side for your cheap love.
Eze16:37 For this cause I will get together all your lovers with whom you have taken your pleasure, and all those to whom you have given your love, with all those who were hated by you; I will even make them come together against you on every side, and I will have you uncovered before them so that they may see your shame.
Eze16:39 I will give you into their hands, and your arched room will be overturned and your high places broken down; they will take your clothing off you and take away your fair jewels: and when they have done, you will be uncovered and shamed.
Eze16:40 And they will get together a meeting against you, stoning you with stones and wounding you with their swords.
Eze16:47 Still you have not gone in their ways or done the disgusting things which they have done; but, as if that was only a little thing, you have gone deeper in evil than they in all your ways.
Eze16:50 They were full of pride and did what was disgusting to me: and so I took them away as you have seen.
Eze16:52 And you yourself will be put to shame, in that you have given the decision for your sisters; through your sins, which are more disgusting than theirs, they are more upright than you: truly, you will be shamed and made low, for you have made your sisters seem upright.
Eze16:53 And I will let their fate be changed, the fate of Sodom and her daughters, and the fate of Samaria and her daughters, and your fate with theirs.
Eze16:54 So that you will be shamed and made low because of all you have done, when I have mercy on you.
Eze16:61 Then at the memory of your ways you will be overcome with shame, when I take your sisters, the older and the younger, and give them to you for daughters, but not by your agreement.
Eze17:12 Say now to this uncontrolled people, Are these things not clear to you? Say to them, See, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem and took its king and its rulers away with him to Babylon;
Eze17:15 But he went against his authority in sending representatives to Egypt to get from them horses and a great army. Will he do well? will he be safe who does such things? if the agreement is broken will he be safe?
Eze17:21 All his best fighting-men will be put to the sword, and the rest will be sent away to every wind: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it.
Eze18:2 Why do you make use of this saying about the land of Israel, The fathers have been tasting bitter grapes and the children's teeth are on edge?
Eze18:3 By my life, says the Lord, you will no longer have this saying in Israel.
Eze18:19 But you say, Why does not the son undergo punishment for the evil-doing of the father? When the son has done what is ordered and right, and has kept my rules and done them, life will certainly be his.
Eze18:25 But you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. Give ear, now, O children of Israel; is my way not equal? are not your ways unequal?
Eze18:29 But still the children of Israel say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O children of Israel, are my ways not equal? are not your ways unequal?
Eze18:30 For this cause I will be your judge, O children of Israel, judging every man by his ways, says the Lord. Come back and be turned from all your sins; so that they may not be the cause of your falling into evil.
Eze18:31 Put away all your evil-doing in which you have done sin; and make for yourselves a new heart and a new spirit: why are you desiring death, O children of Israel?
Eze18:32 For I have no pleasure in the death of him on whom death comes, says the Lord: be turned back then, and have life.
Eze19:4 And the nations had news of him; he was taken in the hole they had made: and, pulling him with hooks, they took him into the land of Egypt.
Eze19:7 And he sent destruction on their widows and made waste their towns; and the land and everything in it became waste because of the loud sound of his voice.
Eze19:8 Then the nations came against him from the kingdoms round about: their net was stretched over him and he was taken in the hole they had made.
Eze19:9 They made him a prisoner with hooks, and took him to the king of Babylon; they put him in the strong place so that his voice might be sounding no longer on the mountains of Israel.
Eze20:3 Son of man, say to the responsible men of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Have you come to get directions from me? By my life, says the Lord, you will get no directions from me.
Eze20:4 Will you be their judge, O son of man, will you be their judge? make clear to them the disgusting ways of their fathers,
Eze20:5 And say to them, This is what the Lord has said: In the day when I took Israel for myself, when I made an oath to the seed of the family of Jacob, and I gave them knowledge of myself in the land of Egypt, saying to them with an oath, I am the Lord your God;
Eze20:6 In that day I gave my oath to take them out of the land of Egypt into a land which I had been searching out for them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the glory of all lands:
Eze20:7 And I said to them, Let every man among you put away the disgusting things to which his eyes are turned, and do not make yourselves unclean with the images of Egypt; I am the Lord your God.
Eze20:8 But they would not be controlled by me, and did not give ear to me; they did not put away the disgusting things to which their eyes were turned, or give up the images of Egypt: then I said I would let loose my passion on them to give full effect to my wrath against them in the land of Egypt.
Eze20:9 And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean before the eyes of the nations among whom they were, and before whose eyes I gave them knowledge of myself, by taking them out of the land of Egypt.
Eze20:10 So I made them go out of the land of Egypt and took them into the waste land.
Eze20:11 And I gave them my rules and made clear to them my orders, which, if a man keeps them, will be life to him.
Eze20:12 And further, I gave them my Sabbaths, to be a sign between me and them, so that it might be clear that I, who make them holy, am the Lord.
Eze20:13 But the children of Israel would not be controlled by me in the waste land: they were not guided by my rules, and they were turned away from my orders, which, if a man does them, will be life to him; and they had no respect for my Sabbaths: then I said that I would let loose my passion on them in the waste land, and put an end to them.
Eze20:14 And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean in the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had taken them out.
Eze20:15 And further, I gave my oath to them in the waste land, that I would not take them into the land which I had given them, a land flowing with milk and honey, the glory of all lands;
Eze20:16 Because they were turned away from my orders, and were not guided by my rules, and had no respect for my Sabbaths: for their hearts went after their images.
Eze20:17 But still my eye had pity on them and I kept them from destruction and did not put an end to them completely in the waste land.
Eze20:18 And I said to their children in the waste land, Do not be guided by the rules of your fathers or keep their orders or make yourselves unclean with their images:
Eze20:19 I am the Lord your God; be guided by my rules and keep my orders and do them:
Eze20:20 And keep my Sabbaths holy; and they will be a sign between me and you so that it may be clear to you that I am the Lord your God.
Eze20:21 But the children would not be controlled by me; they were not guided by my rules, and they did not keep and do my orders, which, if a man does them, will be life to him; and they had no respect for my Sabbaths: then I said I would let loose my passion on them to give full effect to my wrath against them in the waste land.
Eze20:22 And I was acting for the honour of my name, so that it might not be made unclean in the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had taken them out.
Eze20:23 Further, I gave my oath to them in the waste land that I would send them wandering among the nations, driving them out among the countries;
Eze20:24 Because they had not done my orders, but had been turned away from my rules, and had not given respect to my Sabbaths, and their eyes were turned to the images of their fathers.
Eze20:25 And further, I gave them rules which were not good and orders in which there was no life for them;
Eze20:26 I made them unclean in the offerings they gave, causing them to make every first child go through the fire, so that I might put an end to them.
Eze20:27 For this cause, son of man, say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: In this your fathers have further put shame on my name by doing wrong against me.
Eze20:28 For when I had taken them into the land which I made an oath to give to them, then they saw every high hill and every branching tree and made their offerings there, moving me to wrath by their offerings; and there the sweet smell of their offerings went up and their drink offerings were drained out.
Eze20:29 Then I said to them, What is this high place where you go to no purpose? And it is named Bamah to this day.
Eze20:30 For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: Are you making yourselves unclean as your fathers did? are you being untrue to me by going after their disgusting works?
Eze20:31 And when you give your offerings, causing your sons to go through the fire, you make yourselves unclean with all your images to this day; and will you come to me for directions, O children of Israel? By my life, says the Lord, you will get no direction from me.
Eze20:32 And that which comes into your minds will never take place; when you say, We will be like the nations, like the families of the countries, servants of wood and stone;
Eze20:33 By my life, says the Lord, truly, with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm and with burning wrath let loose, I will be King over you:
Eze20:34 And I will take you out from the peoples and get you together out of the countries where you are wandering, with a strong hand and with an outstretched arm and with burning wrath let loose:
Eze20:35 And I will take you into the waste land of the peoples, and there I will take up the cause with you face to face.
Eze20:36 As I took up the cause with your fathers in the waste land of the land of Egypt, so will I take up the cause with you says the Lord.
Eze20:37 And I will make you go under the rod and will make you small in number:
Eze20:38 Clearing out from among you all those who are uncontrolled and who are sinning against me; I will take them out of the land where they are living, but they will not come into the land of Israel: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze20:39 As for you, O children of Israel, the Lord has said: Let every man completely put away his images and give ear to me: and let my holy name no longer be shamed by your offerings and your images.
Eze20:40 For in my holy mountain, in the high mountain of Israel, says the Lord, there all the children of Israel, all of them, will be my servants in the land; there I will take pleasure in them, and there I will be worshipped with your offerings and the first-fruits of the things you give, and with all your holy things.
Eze20:41 I will take pleasure in you as in a sweet smell, when I take you out from the peoples and get you together from the countries where you have been sent in flight; and I will make myself holy in you before the eyes of the nations.
Eze20:42 And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when I take you into the land of Israel, into the country which I made an oath to give to your fathers.
Eze20:43 And there, at the memory of your ways and of all the things you did to make yourselves unclean, you will have bitter hate for yourselves because of all the evil things you have done.
Eze20:44 And you will be certain that I am the Lord, when I take you in hand for the honour of my name, and not for your evil ways or your unclean doings, O children of Israel, says the Lord.
Eze21:6 Make sounds of grief, son of man; with body bent and a bitter heart make sounds of grief before their eyes.
Eze21:7 And when they say to you, Why are you making sounds of grief? then say, Because of the news, for it is coming: and every heart will become soft, and all hands will be feeble, and every spirit will be burning low, and all knees will be turned to water: see, it is coming and it will be done, says the Lord.
Eze21:10 It has been made sharp to give death; it is polished so that it may be like a thunder-flame: ...
Eze21:12 Give loud cries and make sounds of grief, O son of man: for it has come on my people, it has come on all the rulers of Israel: fear of the sword has come on my people: for this cause give signs of grief.
Eze21:14 So then, son of man, be a prophet, and put your hands together with a loud sound, and give two blows with the sword, and even three; it is the sword of those who are wounded, even the sword of the wounded; the great sword which goes round about them.
Eze21:15 In order that hearts may become soft, and the number of those who are falling may be increased, I have sent death by the sword against all their doors: you are made like a flame, you are polished for death.
Eze21:23 And this answer given by secret arts will seem false to those who have given their oaths and have let them be broken: but he will keep the memory of evil-doing so that they may be taken.
Eze21:24 For this cause the Lord has said: Because you have made your evil-doing come to mind by the uncovering of your wrongdoing, causing your sins to be seen in all your evil-doings; because you have come to mind, you will be taken in them.
Eze21:28 And you, son of man, say as a prophet, This is what the Lord has said about the children of Ammon and about their shame: Say, A sword, even a sword let loose, polished for death, to make it shining so that it may be like a flame:
Eze21:29 Your vision is to no purpose, your use of secret arts gives a false answer, to put it on the necks of evil-doers who are wounded to death, whose day has come, in the time of the last punishment.
Eze22:18 Son of man, the children of Israel have become like the poorest sort of waste metal to me: they are all silver and brass and tin and iron and lead mixed with waste.
Eze22:19 For this cause the Lord has said: Because you have all become waste metal, see, I will get you together inside Jerusalem.
Eze22:20 As they put silver and brass and iron and lead and tin together inside the oven, heating up the fire on it to make it soft; so will I get you together in my wrath and in my passion, and, heating the fire with my breath, will make you soft.
Eze22:21 Yes, I will take you, breathing on you the fire of my wrath, and you will become soft in it.
Eze22:22 As silver becomes soft in the oven, so you will become soft in it; and you will be certain that I the Lord have let loose my passion on you.
Eze22:25 Her rulers in her are like a loud-voiced lion violently taking his food; they have made a meal of souls; they have taken wealth and valued property; they have made great the number of widows in her.
Eze22:26 Her priests have been acting violently against my law; they have made my holy things unclean: they have made no division between what is holy and what is common, and they have not made it clear that the unclean is different from the clean, and their eyes have been shut to my Sabbaths, and I am not honoured among them.
Eze22:28 And her prophets have been using whitewash, seeing foolish visions and making false use of secret arts, saying, This is what the Lord has said, when the Lord has said nothing.
Eze22:30 And I was looking for a man among them who would make up the wall and take his station in the broken place before me for the land, so that I might not send destruction on it: but there was no one.
Eze22:31 And I let loose my passion on them, and have put an end to them in the fire of my wrath: I have made the punishment of their ways come on their heads, says the Lord.
Eze23:3 They were acting like loose women in Egypt; when they were young their behaviour was loose: there their breasts were crushed, even the points of their young breasts were crushed.
Eze23:4 Their names were Oholah, the older, and Oholibah, her sister: and they became mine, and gave birth to sons and daughters. As for their names, Samaria is Oholah, and Jerusalem, Oholibah.
Eze23:10 By these her shame was uncovered: they took her sons and daughters and put her to death with the sword: and she became a cause of wonder to women; for they gave her the punishment which was right.
Eze23:15 With bands round their bodies and with head-dresses hanging round their heads, all of them looking like rulers, like the Babylonians, the land of whose birth is Chaldaea.
Eze23:16 And when she saw them she was full of desire for them, and sent servants to them in Chaldaea.
Eze23:17 And the Babylonians came to her, into the bed of love, and made her unclean with their loose desire, and she became unclean with them, and her soul was turned from them.
Eze23:22 For this cause, O Oholibah, this is what the Lord has said: See, I will make your lovers come up against you, even those from whom your soul is turned away in disgust; and I will make them come up against you on every side;
Eze23:23 The Babylonians and all the Chaldaeans, Pekod and Shoa and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them: young men to be desired, captains and rulers all of them, and chiefs, her neighbours, all of them on horseback.
Eze23:24 And they will come against you from the north on horseback, with war-carriages and a great band of peoples; they will put themselves in order against you with breastplate and body-cover and metal head-dress round about you: and I will make them your judges, and they will give their decision against you as seems right to them.
Eze23:25 And my bitter feeling will be working against you, and they will take you in hand with passion; they will take away your nose and your ears, and the rest of you will be put to the sword: they will take your sons and daughters, and the rest of you will be burned up in the fire.
Eze23:26 And they will take all your clothing off you and take away your ornaments.
Eze23:29 And they will take you in hand with hate, and take away all the fruit of your work, and let you be unveiled and without clothing: and the shame of your loose behaviour will be uncovered, your evil designs and your loose ways.
Eze23:30 They will do these things to you because you have been untrue to me, and have gone after the nations, and have become unclean with their images.
Eze23:36 Then the Lord said to me: Son of man, will you be the judge of Oholibah? then make clear to her the disgusting things she has done.
Eze23:37 For she has been false to me, and blood is on her hands, and with her images she has been untrue; and more than this, she made her sons, whom she had by me, go through the fire to them to be burned up.
Eze23:38 Further, this is what she has done to me: she has made my holy place unclean and has made my Sabbaths unclean.
Eze23:39 For when she had made an offering of her children to her images, she came into my holy place to make it unclean; see, this is what she has done inside my house.
Eze23:40 And she even sent for men to come from far away, to whom a servant was sent, and they came: for whom she was washing her body and painting her eyes and making herself fair with ornaments.
Eze23:42 ... and they put jewels on her hands and beautiful crowns on her head.
Eze23:45 And upright men will be her judges, judging her as false wives and women who take lives are judged; because she has been untrue to me and blood is on her hands.
Eze23:46 For this is what the Lord has said: I will make a great meeting of the people come together against her, and will send on her shaking fear and take everything from her.
Eze23:47 And the meeting, after stoning her with stones, will put an end to her with their swords; they will put her sons and daughters to death and have her house burned up with fire.
Eze23:48 And I will put an end to evil in all the land, teaching all women not to do as you have done.
Eze23:49 And I will send on you the punishment of your evil ways, and you will be rewarded for your sins with your images: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze24:19 And the people said to me, Will you not make clear to us the sense of these things; is it for us you do them?
Eze24:20 Then I said to them, The word of the Lord came to me, saying,
Eze24:21 Say to the people of Israel, The Lord has said, See, I will make my holy place unclean, the pride of your strength, the pleasure of your eyes, and the desire of your soul; and your sons and daughters, who did not come with you here, will be put to the sword.
Eze24:22 And you will do as I have done, not covering your lips or taking the food of those in grief.
Eze24:23 And your head-dresses will be on your heads and your shoes on your feet: there will be no sorrow or weeping; but you will be wasting away in the punishment of your evil-doing, and you will be looking at one another in wonder.
Eze24:24 And Ezekiel will be a sign to you; everything he has done you will do: when this takes place, you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze24:25 And as for you, son of man, your mouth will be shut in the day when I take from them their strength, the joy of their glory, the desire of their eyes, and that on which their hearts are fixed, and their sons and daughters.
Eze24:27 In that day your mouth will be open to him who has got away safe, and you will say words to him and your lips will no longer be shut: so you will be a sign to them and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze25:2 Son of man, let your face be turned to the children of Ammon, and be a prophet against them:
Eze25:3 And say to the children of Ammon, Give ear to the word of the Lord; this is what the Lord has said: Because you said, Aha! against my holy place when it was made unclean, and against the land of Israel when it was made waste, and against the people of Judah when they were taken away as prisoners;
Eze25:4 For this cause I will give you up to the children of the east for their heritage, and they will put their tent-circles in you and make their houses in you; they will take your fruit for their food and your milk for their drink.
Eze25:5 And I will make Rabbah a place for housing camels, and the children of Ammon a resting-place for flocks: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze25:10 To the children of the east I have given her for a heritage, as well as the children of Ammon, so that there may be no memory of her among the nations:
Eze25:11 And I will be the judge of Moab; and they will see that I am the Lord.
Eze25:12 This is what the Lord has said: Because Edom has taken his payment from the people of Judah, and has done great wrong in taking payment from them;
Eze25:15 This is what the Lord has said: Because the Philistines have taken payment, with the purpose of causing shame and destruction with unending hate;
Eze25:17 And I will take great payment from them with acts of wrath; and they will be certain that I am the Lord when I send my punishment on them.
Eze26:4 And they will give the walls of Tyre to destruction and have its towers broken: and I will take even her dust away from her, and make her an uncovered rock
Eze26:6 And her daughters in the open country will be put to the sword: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze26:17 And they will send up a song of grief for you, and say to you, What destruction has come on you, how are you cut off from the sea, the noted town, which was strong in the sea, she and her people, causing the fear of them to come on all the dry land!
Eze27:5 They have made all your boards of fir-trees from Senir: they have taken cedars from Lebanon to make the supports for your sails.
Eze27:10 Cush and Lud and Put were in your army, your men of war, hanging up their body-covers and head-dresses of war in you: they gave you your glory.
Eze27:11 The men of Arvad in your army were on your walls, and were watchmen in your towers, hanging up their arms on your walls round about; they made you completely beautiful.
Eze27:13 Javan, Tubal, and Meshech were your traders; they gave living men and brass vessels for your goods.
Eze27:15 The men of Rodan were your traders: a great number of sea-lands did business with you: they gave you horns of ivory and ebony as an offering.
Eze27:16 Edom did business with you because of the great number of things which you made; they gave emeralds, purple, and needlework, and the best linen and coral and rubies for your goods.
Eze27:17 Judah and the land of Israel were your traders; they gave grain of Minnith and sweet cakes and honey and oil and perfume for your goods.
Eze27:22 The traders of Sheba and Raamah did trade with you; they gave the best of all sorts of spices and all sorts of stones of great price and gold for your goods.
Eze27:30 And their voices will be sounding over you, and crying bitterly they will put dust on their heads, rolling themselves in the dust:
Eze27:32 And in their weeping they will make a song of grief for you, sorrowing over you and saying, Who is like Tyre, who has come to an end in the deep sea?
Eze27:35 All the people of the sea-lands are overcome with wonder at you, and their kings are full of fear, their faces are troubled.
Eze28:7 See, I am sending against you strange men, feared among the nations: they will let loose their swords against your bright wisdom, they will make your glory a common thing.
Eze28:8 They will send you down to the underworld, and your death will be the death of those who are put to the sword in the heart of the seas.
Eze28:17 Your heart was lifted up because you were beautiful, you made your wisdom evil through your sin: I have sent you down, even to the earth; I have made you low before kings, so that they may see you.
Eze28:24 And there will no longer be a plant with sharp points wounding the children of Israel, or a thorn troubling them among any who are round about them, who put shame on them; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze28:25 This is what the Lord has said: When I have got together the children of Israel from the peoples among whom they are wandering, and have been made holy among them before the eyes of the nations, then they will have rest in the land which is theirs, which I gave to my servant Jacob
Eze28:26 And they will be safe there, building houses and planting vine-gardens and living without fear; when I have sent my punishments on all those who put shame on them round about them; and they will be certain that I am the Lord their God.
Eze29:7 When they took a grip of you in their hands, you were crushed so that their arms were broken: and when they put their weight on you for support, you were broken and all their muscles gave way.
Eze29:9 And the land of Egypt will be an unpeopled waste; and they will be certain that I am the Lord: because he has said, The Nile is mine, and I made it.
Eze29:14 I will let the fate of Egypt be changed, and will make them come back into the land of Pathros, into the land from which they came; and there they will be an unimportant kingdom.
Eze29:15 It will be the lowest of the kingdoms, and never again will it be lifted up over the nations: I will make them small, so that they may not have rule over the nations.
Eze29:16 And Egypt will no longer be the hope of the children of Israel, causing sin to come to mind when their eyes are turned to them: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze29:21 In that day I will make a horn put out buds for the children of Israel, and I will let your words come freely among them, and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze30:2 Son of man, be a prophet, and say, These are the words of the Lord: Give a cry, Aha, for the day!
Eze30:8 And they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I have put a fire in Egypt and all her helpers are broken.
Eze30:9 In that day men will go out quickly to take the news, causing fear in untroubled Ethiopia; and bitter pain will come on them as in the day of Egypt; for see, it is coming.
Eze30:11 He and the people with him, causing fear among the nations, will be sent for the destruction of the land; their swords will be let loose against Egypt and the land will be full of dead.
Eze30:19 And I will send my punishments on Egypt: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze30:25 And I will make the arms of the king of Babylon strong, and the arms of Pharaoh will be hanging down; and they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I put my sword into the hand of the king of Babylon and it is stretched out against the land of Egypt.
Eze30:26 And I will send the Egyptians in flight among the nations and wandering through the countries; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze31:14 In order that no trees by the waters may be lifted up in their growth, putting their tops among the clouds; and that no trees which are watered may take their place on high: for they are all given up to death, to the lowest parts of the earth among the children of men, with those who go down to the underworld.
Eze31:17 And they will go down with him to the underworld, to those who have been put to the sword; even those who were his helpers, living under his shade among the nations
Eze32:10 And I will make a number of peoples overcome with wonder at you, and their kings will be full of fear because of you, when my sword is waved before them: they will be shaking every minute, every man fearing for his life, in the day of your fall.
Eze32:12 I will let the swords of the strong be the cause of the fall of your people; all of them men to be feared among the nations: and they will make waste the pride of Egypt, and all its people will come to destruction.
Eze32:15 When I make Egypt an unpeopled waste, cutting off from the land all the things in it; when I send punishment on all those living in it, then it will be clear to them that I am the Lord.
Eze32:20 Among those who have been put to the sword: they will give a resting-place with them to all their people.
Eze32:21 The strong among the great ones will say to him from the underworld, Are you more beautiful than any? go down, you and your helpers, and take your rest among those without circumcision, and those who have been put to the sword.
Eze32:22 There is Asshur and all her army, round about her last resting-place: all of them put to death by the sword:
Eze32:23 Whose resting-places are in the inmost parts of the underworld, who were a cause of fear in the land of the living.
Eze32:24 There is Elam and all her people, round about her last resting-place: all of them put to death by the sword, who have gone down without circumcision into the lowest parts of the earth, who were a cause of fear in the land of the living, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld:
Eze32:25 They have made a bed for her among the dead, and all her people are round about her resting-place: all of them without circumcision, put to death with the sword; for they were a cause of fear in the land of the living, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld: they have been given a place among those who have been put to the sword.
Eze32:26 There is Meshech, Tubal, and all her people, round about her last resting-place: all of them without circumcision, put to death by the sword; for they were a cause of fear in the land of the living.
Eze32:27 And they have been put to rest with the fighting men who came to their end in days long past, who went down to the underworld with their instruments of war, placing their swords under their heads, and their body-covers are over their bones; for their strength was a cause of fear in the land of the living.
Eze32:29 There is Edom, her kings and all her princes, who have been given a resting-place with those who were put to the sword: they will be resting among those without circumcision, even with those who go down to the underworld.
Eze32:30 There are the chiefs of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, who have gone down with those who have been put to the sword: they are shamed on account of all the fear caused by their strength; they are resting there without circumcision, among those who have been put to the sword, and are put to shame with those who go down to the underworld.
Eze32:31 Pharaoh will see them and be comforted on account of all his people: even Pharaoh and all his army, put to death by the sword, says the Lord.
Eze33:2 Son of man, give a word to the children of your people, and say to them, When I make the sword come on a land, if the people of the land take a man from among their number and make him their watchman:
Eze33:6 But if the watchman sees the sword coming, and does not give a note on the horn, and the people have no word of the danger, and the sword comes and takes any person from among them; he will be taken away in his sin, but I will make the watchman responsible for his blood.
Eze33:7 So you, son of man, I have made you a watchman for the children of Israel; and you are to give ear to the word of my mouth and give them news from me of their danger.
Eze33:10 And you, son of man, say to the children of Israel, You say, Our wrongdoing and our sins are on us and we are wasting away in them; how then may we have life?
Eze33:11 Say to them, By my life, says the Lord, I have no pleasure in the death of the evil-doer; it is more pleasing to me if he is turned from his way and has life: be turned, be turned from your evil ways; why are you looking for death, O children of Israel?
Eze33:17 But the children of your people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: when it is they whose way is not equal.
Eze33:20 And still you say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O children of Israel, I will be your judge, giving to everyone the reward of his ways.
Eze33:21 Now in the twelfth year after we had been taken away prisoners, in the tenth month, on the fifth day of the month, one who had got away in flight from Jerusalem came to me, saying, The town has been taken.
Eze33:24 Son of man, those who are living in these waste places in the land of Israel say, Abraham was but one, and he had land for his heritage: but we are a great number; the land is given to us for our heritage.
Eze33:25 For this cause say to them, This is what the Lord has said: You take your meat with the blood, your eyes are lifted up to your images, and you are takers of life: are you to have the land for your heritage?
Eze33:26 You put your faith in your swords, you do disgusting things, everyone takes his neighbour's wife: are you to have the land for your heritage?
Eze33:27 This is what you are to say to them: The Lord has said, By my life, truly, those who are in the waste places will be put to the sword, and him who is in the open field I will give to the beasts for their food, and those who are in the strong places and in holes in the rocks will come to their death by disease.
Eze33:29 Then they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I have made the land a waste and a cause of wonder, because of all the disgusting things which they have done,
Eze33:31 And they come to you as my people come, and are seated before you as my people, hearing your words but doing them not: for deceit is in their mouth and their heart goes after profit for themselves.
Eze33:32 And truly you are to them like a love song by one who has a very pleasing voice and is an expert player on an instrument: for they give ear to your words but do them not.
Eze33:33 And when this comes about (see, it is coming), then it will be clear to them that a prophet has been among them.
Eze34:2 Son of man, be a prophet against the keepers of the flock of Israel, and say to them, O keepers of the sheep! this is the word of the Lord: A curse is on the keepers of the flock of Israel who take the food for themselves! is it not right for the keepers to give the food to the sheep?
Eze34:3 You take the milk and are clothed with the wool, you put the fat beasts to death, but you give the sheep no food.
Eze34:4 You have not made the diseased ones strong or made well that which was ill; you have not put bands on the broken or got back that which had been sent away or made search for the wandering ones; and the strong you have been ruling cruelly.
Eze34:7 For this cause, O keepers of the flock, give ear to the word of the Lord:
Eze34:9 For this reason, O you keepers of the flock, give ear to the word of the Lord;
Eze34:10 This is what the Lord has said: See I am against the keepers of the flock, and I will make search and see what they have done with my sheep, and will let them be keepers of my sheep no longer; and the keepers will no longer get food for themselves; I will take my sheep out of their mouths so that they may not be food for them.
Eze34:11 For this is what the Lord has said: Truly, I, even I, will go searching and looking for my sheep.
Eze34:12 As the keeper goes looking for his flock when he is among his wandering sheep, so I will go looking for my sheep, and will get them safely out of all the places where they have been sent wandering in the day of clouds and black night.
Eze34:13 And I will take them out from among the peoples, and get them together from the countries, and will take them into their land; and I will give them food on the mountains of Israel by the water-streams and wherever men are living in the country.
Eze34:14 I will give them good grass-land for their food, and their safe place will be the mountains of the high place of Israel: there they will take their rest in a good place, and on fat grass-land they will take their food on the mountains of Israel.
Eze34:15 I myself will give food to my flock, and I will give them rest, says the Lord.
Eze34:16 I will go in search of that which had gone wandering from the way, and will get back that which had been sent in flight, and will put bands on that which was broken, and give strength to that which was ill: but the fat and the strong I will give up to destruction; I will give them for their food the punishment which is theirs by right.
Eze34:17 And as for you, O my flock, says the Lord, truly, I will be judge between sheep and sheep, the he-sheep and the he-goats.
Eze34:18 Does it seem a small thing to you to have taken your food on good grass-land while the rest of your grass-land is stamped down under your feet? and that after drinking from clear waters you make the rest of the waters dirty with your feet?
Eze34:19 And as for my sheep, their food is the grass which has been stamped on by your feet, and their drink the water which has been made dirty by your feet.
Eze34:21 Because you have been pushing with side and leg, pushing the diseased with your horns till they were sent away in every direction;
Eze34:23 And I will put over them one keeper, and he will give them food, even my servant David; he will give them food and be their keeper.
Eze34:24 And I the Lord will be their God and my servant David their ruler; I the Lord have said it.
Eze34:25 And I will make with them an agreement of peace, and will put an end to evil beasts through all the land: and they will be living safely in the waste land, sleeping in the woods.
Eze34:26 And I will give the rain at the right time, and I will make the shower come down at the right time; there will be showers of blessing.
Eze34:27 And the tree of the field will give its fruit and the earth will give its increase, and they will be safe in their land; and they will be certain that I am the Lord, when I have had their yoke broken and have given them salvation from the hands of those who made them servants.
Eze34:28 And their goods will no longer be taken by the nations, and they will not again be food for the beasts of the earth; but they will be living safely and no one will be a cause of fear to them.
Eze34:29 And I will give them planting-places of peace, and they will no longer be wasted from need of food or put to shame by the nations.
Eze34:30 And they will be certain that I the Lord their God am with them, and that they, the children of Israel, are my people, says the Lord.
Eze34:31 And you are my sheep, the sheep of my grass-lands, and I am your God, says the Lord.
Eze35:5 Because yours has been a hate without end, and you have given up the children of Israel to the power of the sword in the time of their trouble, in the time of the punishment of the end:
Eze35:11 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord, I will do to you as you have done in your wrath and in your envy, which you have made clear in your hate for them; and I will make clear to you who I am when you are judged by me.
Eze35:12 And you will see that I the Lord have had knowledge of all the bitter things which you have said against the mountains of Israel, saying, They have been made waste, they are given to us to take for our heritage.
Eze35:13 And you have made yourselves great against me with your mouths, increasing your words against me; and it has come to my ears.
Eze35:15 You will become a waste, O Mount Seir, and all Edom, even all of it: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze36:2 This is what the Lord has said: Because your hater has said against you, Aha! and, The old waste places are our heritage, we have taken them:
Eze36:5 For this cause the Lord has said: Truly, in the heat of my bitter feeling I have said things against the rest of the nations and against all Edom, who have taken my land as a heritage for themselves with the joy of all their heart, and with bitter envy of soul have made attacks on it:
Eze36:6 For this cause be a prophet about the land of Israel, and say to the mountains and to the hills, to the streams and to the valleys, This is what the Lord has said: Truly, in my bitter feeling and in my wrath I have said these things, because you have undergone the shame of the nations:
Eze36:7 For this cause the Lord has said, See, I have taken an oath that the nations which are round about you are themselves to undergo the shame which they have put on you.
Eze36:8 But you, O mountains of Israel, will put out your branches and give your fruit to my people Israel; for they are ready to come.
Eze36:11 Man and beast will be increased in you, and they will have offspring and be fertile: I will make you thickly peopled as you were before, and will do more for you than at the first: and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze36:12 Yes, I will have you walked on by the feet of men, even my people Israel; they will have you for a heritage and you will be theirs, and never again will you take their children from them.
Eze36:17 Son of man, when the children of Israel were living in their land, they made it unclean by their way and their acts: their way before me was as when a woman is unclean at the time when she is kept separate.
Eze36:18 So I let loose my wrath on them because of those whom they had violently put to death in the land, and because they had made it unclean with their images:
Eze36:19 And I sent them in flight among the nations and wandering through the countries: I was their judge, rewarding them for their way and their acts.
Eze36:20 And when they came among the nations, wherever they went, they made my holy name unclean, when it was said of them, These are the people of the Lord who have gone out from his land.
Eze36:22 For this cause say to the children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: I am doing this, not because of you, O children of Israel, but because of my holy name, which you have made unclean among the nations wherever you went.
Eze36:23 And I will make holy my great name which has been made unclean among the nations, which you have made unclean among them; and it will be clear to the nations that I am the Lord, says the Lord, when I make myself holy in you before their eyes.
Eze36:24 For I will take you out from among the nations, and get you together from all the countries, and take you into your land.
Eze36:25 And I will put clean water on you so that you may be clean: from all your unclean ways and from all your images I will make you clean.
Eze36:26 And I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you: I will take away the heart of stone from your flesh, and give you a heart of flesh.
Eze36:27 And I will put my spirit in you, causing you to be guided by my rules, and you will keep my orders and do them.
Eze36:28 So that you may go on living in the land which I gave to your fathers; and you will be to me a people, and I will be to you a God.
Eze36:29 And I will make you free from all your unclean ways: and at my voice the grain will come up and be increased, and I will not let you be short of food.
Eze36:30 And I will make the tree give more fruit and the field fuller produce, and no longer will you be shamed among the nations for need of food.
Eze36:31 And at the memory of your evil ways and your wrongdoings, you will have bitter hate for yourselves because of your evil-doings and your disgusting ways, O children of Israel.
Eze36:32 Not because of you am I doing it, says the Lord; let it be clear to you, and be shamed and made low because of your ways, O children of Israel.
Eze36:33 This is what the Lord has said: In the day when I make you clean from all your evil-doings I will let the towns be peopled and there will be building on the waste places.
Eze36:35 And they will say, This land which was waste has become like the garden of Eden; and the towns which were unpeopled and wasted and pulled down are walled and peopled.
Eze36:36 Then the rest of the nations round about you will be certain that I the Lord am the builder of the places which were pulled down and the planter of that which was waste: I the Lord have said it, and I will do it.
Eze36:37 This is what the Lord has said: The children of Israel will again make prayer to me for this, that I may do it for them; I will make them increased with men like a flock.
Eze36:38 Like sheep for the offerings, like the sheep of Jerusalem at her fixed feasts, so the unpeopled towns will be made full of men: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze37:5 This is what the Lord has said to these bones: See, I will make breath come into you so that you may come to life;
Eze37:6 And I will put muscles on you and make flesh come on you, and put skin over you, and breath into you, so that you may have life; and you will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze37:9 And he said to me, Be a prophet to the wind, be a prophet, son of man, and say to the wind, The Lord has said: Come from the four winds, O wind, breathing on these dead so that they may come to life.
Eze37:11 Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are all the children of Israel: and see, they are saying, Our bones have become dry our hope is gone, we are cut off completely.
Eze37:12 For this cause be a prophet to them, and say, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am opening the resting-places of your dead, and I will make you come up out of your resting-places, O my people; and I will take you into the land of Israel.
Eze37:13 And you will be certain that I am the Lord by my opening the resting-places of your dead and making you come up out of your resting-places, O my people.
Eze37:14 And I will put my spirit in you, so that you may come to life, and I will give you a rest in your land: and you will be certain that I the Lord have said it and have done it, says the Lord.
Eze37:18 And when the children of your people say to you, Will you not make clear to us what these things have to do with us?
Eze37:19 Then say to them, This is what the Lord has said: See, I am taking the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel who are in his company; and I will put it on the stick of Judah and make them one stick, and they will be one in my hand.
Eze37:20 And the sticks with your writing on them will be in your hand before their eyes.
Eze37:21 And say to them, These are the words of the Lord: See, I am taking the children of Israel from among the nations where they have gone, and will get them together on every side, and take them into their land:
Eze37:22 And I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king will be king over them all: and they will no longer be two nations, and will no longer be parted into two kingdoms:
Eze37:23 And they will no longer make themselves unclean with their images or with their hated things or with any of their sins: but I will give them salvation from all their turning away in which they have done evil, and will make them clean; and they will be to me a people, and I will be to them a God.
Eze37:24 And my servant David will be king over them; and they will all have one keeper: and they will be guided by my orders and will keep my rules and do them.
Eze37:25 And they will be living in the land which I gave to Jacob, my servant, in which your fathers were living; and they will go on living there, they and their children and their children's children, for ever: and David, my servant, will be their ruler for ever.
Eze37:26 And I will make an agreement of peace with them: it will be an eternal agreement with them: and I will have mercy on them and make their numbers great, and will put my holy place among them for ever.
Eze37:27 And my House will be over them; and I will be to them a God, and they will be to me a people.
Eze38:7 Be ready, make yourself ready, you and all the forces who are with you, and be ready for my orders.
Eze38:11 And you will say, I will go up to the land of small unwalled towns; I will go to those who are quiet, living, all of them, without fear of danger, without walls or locks or doors:
Eze38:16 And you will come up against my people Israel, like a cloud covering the land; and it will come about, in the last days, that I will make you come against my land, so that the nations may have knowledge of me when I make myself holy in you, O Gog, before their eyes.
Eze38:17 This is what the Lord has said: You are he of whom I gave them word in earlier times by my servants, the prophets of Israel, who in those days went on saying, year after year, that I would make you come up against them.
Eze38:23 And I will make my name great and make myself holy, and I will make myself clear to a number of nations; and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze39:6 And I will send a fire on Magog, and on those who are living in the sea-lands without fear: and they will be certain that I am the Lord.
Eze39:10 And they will take no wood out of the field or have any cut down in the woods; for they will make their fires of the instruments of war: and they will take by force the property of those who took their property, and go off with the goods of those who took their goods, says the Lord.
Eze39:11 And it will come about in those days, that I will give to Gog a last resting-place there in Israel, in the valley of Abarim on the east of the sea: and those who go through will be stopped: and there Gog and all his people will be put to rest, and the place will be named, The valley of Hamon-gog.
Eze39:12 And the children of Israel will be seven months putting them in the earth, so as to make the land clean.
Eze39:13 And all the people of the land will put them in the earth; and it will be to their honour in the day when I let my glory be seen, says the Lord.
Eze39:14 And they will put on one side men to do no other work but to go through the land and put in the earth the rest of those who are still on the face of the land, to make it clean: after seven months are ended they are to make a search.
Eze39:15 And while they go through the land, if anyone sees a man's bone, he is to put up a sign by the place till those who are doing the work have put it in the earth in the valley of Hamon-gog.
Eze39:16 And there they will put all the army of Gog in the earth. So they will make the land clean.
Eze39:17 And you, son of man, this is what the Lord has said: Say to the birds of every sort and to all the beasts of the field, Get together and come; come together on every side to the offering which I am putting to death for you, a great offering on the mountains of Israel, so that you may have flesh for your food and blood for your drink.
Eze39:18 The flesh of the men of war will be your food, and your drink the blood of the princes of the earth, of sheep and lambs, of he-goats, of oxen, all of them fat beasts of Bashan.
Eze39:19 You will go on feasting on the fat till you are full, and drinking the blood till you are overcome with it, of my offering which I have put to death for you.
Eze39:20 At my table you will have food in full measure, horses and war-carriages, great men and all the men of war, says the Lord.
Eze39:21 And I will put my glory among the nations, and all the nations will see my punishments which I have put into effect, and my hand which I have put on them.
Eze39:22 So the children of Israel will be certain that I am the Lord their God, from that day and for the future.
Eze39:23 And it will be clear to the nations that the children of Israel were taken away prisoners for their evil-doing; because they did wrong against me, and my face was covered from them: so I gave them up into the hands of their attackers, and they all came to their end by the sword.
Eze39:24 In the measure of their unclean ways and their sins, so I did to them; and I kept my face covered from them.
Eze39:26 And they will be conscious of their shame and of all the wrong which they have done against me, when they are living in their land with no sense of danger and with no one to be a cause of fear to them;
Eze39:28 And they will be certain that I am the Lord their God, because I sent them away as prisoners among the nations, and have taken them together back to their land; and I have not let one of them be there any longer.
Eze39:29 And my face will no longer be covered from them: for I have sent the out-flowing of my spirit on the children of Israel, says the Lord.
Eze40:1 In the twenty-fifth year after we had been taken away prisoners, in the first month of the year, on the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after the town was taken, on the very same day, the hand of the Lord was on me, and he took me there.
Eze40:38 And there was a room with a door in the covered way of the doorway, where the burned offering was washed.
Eze42:14 When the priests go in, they may not go out of the holy place into the outer square, and there they are to put the robes in which they do the work of the Lord's house, for they are holy: and they have to put on other clothing before they come near that which has to do with the people.
Eze43:7 And he said to me, Son of man, this is the place where the seat of my power is and the resting-place of my feet, where I will be among the children of Israel for ever: and no longer will the people of Israel make my holy name unclean, they or their kings, by their loose ways and by the dead bodies of their kings;
Eze43:8 By putting their doorstep by my doorstep, and the pillar of their door by the pillar of my door, with only a wall between me and them; and they have made my holy name unclean by the disgusting things which they have done: so in my wrath I sent destruction on them.
Eze43:9 Now let them put their loose ways and the dead bodies of their kings far from me, and I will be among them for ever.
Eze43:10 You, son of man, give the children of Israel an account of this house, so that they may be shamed because of their evil-doing: and let them see the vision of it and its image.
Eze43:11 And they will be shamed by what they have done; so give them the knowledge of the form of the house and its structure, and the ways out of it and into it, and all its laws and its rules, writing it down for them: so that they may keep all its laws and do them.
Eze43:27 And when these days have come to an end, then on the eighth day and after, the priests will make your burned offerings on the altar and your peace-offerings; and I will take pleasure in you, says the Lord.
Eze44:6 And say to the uncontrolled children of Israel, This is what the Lord has said: O you children of Israel, let it be enough for you, among the disgusting things which you have done,
Eze44:7 To have let men from strange lands, without circumcision of heart or flesh, come into my holy place, making my house unclean; and to have made the offering of my food, even the fat and the blood; and in addition to all your disgusting ways, you have let my agreement be broken.
Eze44:8 And you have not taken care of my holy things; but you have put them as keepers to take care of my work in my holy place.
Eze44:10 But as for the Levites, who went far from me, when Israel went out of the right way, turning away from me to go after their images; their punishment will come on them.
Eze44:11 But they may be caretakers in my holy place, and overseers at the doors of the house, doing the work of the house: they will put to death the burned offering and the beasts offered for the people, and they will take their place before them as their servants.
Eze44:12 Because they did this work for them before their images, and became a cause of sin to the children of Israel; for this cause my hand has been lifted up against them, says the Lord, and their punishment will be on them.
Eze44:13 And they will not come near me to do the work of priests to me, or come near any of my holy things, or the things which are most holy: but their shame will be on them, and the punishment for the disgusting things which they have done.
Eze44:14 But I will make them responsible for the care of the house and all its work and everything which is done in it.
Eze44:15 But as for the priests, the sons of Zadok, who took care of my holy place when the children of Israel were turned away from me, they are to come near me to do my work, they will take their places before me, offering to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord;
Eze44:16 They are to come into my holy place and they are to come near to my table, to do my work and have the care of my house.
Eze44:17 And when they come in by the doorways of the inner square, they are to be clothed in linen robes; there is to be no wool on them while they are doing my work in the doorway of the inner square and inside the house.
Eze44:18 They are to have linen head-dresses on their heads and linen trousers on their legs, and they are to have nothing round them to make their skin wet with heat.
Eze44:19 And when they go out into the outer square to the people, they are to take off the robes in which they do the work of priests, and put them away in the holy rooms, and put on other clothing, so that the people may not be made holy by their robes.
Eze44:23 And they are to make clear to my people the division between what is holy and what is common, and to give them the knowledge of what is clean and what is unclean.
Eze44:24 In any cause, they are to be in the position of judges, judging in harmony with my decisions: they are to keep my laws and my rules in all my fixed feasts; and they are to keep my Sabbaths holy.
Eze44:25 They are not to come near any dead person so as to become unclean: but for a father or mother or son or daughter or brother or for a sister who has no husband, they may make themselves unclean.
Eze44:28 And they are to have no heritage; I am their heritage: you are to give them no property in Israel; I am their property.
Eze44:29 Their food is to be the meal offering and the sin-offering and the offering for error; and everything given specially to the Lord in Israel will be theirs.
Eze44:30 And the best of all the first-fruits of everything, and every offering which is lifted up of all your offerings, will be for the priests: and you are to give the priest the first of your bread-making, so causing a blessing to come on your house.
Eze45:1 And when you are making a distribution of the land, by the decision of the Lord, for your heritage, you are to make an offering to the Lord of a part of the land as holy: it is to be twenty-five thousand long and twenty thousand wide: all the land inside these limits is to be holy.
Eze45:4 This holy part of the land is to be for the priests, the servants of the holy place, who come near to the Lord to do his work; it is to be a place for their houses and for grass-land and for cattle.
Eze45:9 This is what the Lord has said: Let this be enough for you, O rulers of Israel: let there be an end of violent behaviour and wasting; do what is right, judging uprightly; let there be no more driving out of my people, says the Lord.
Eze45:10 Have true scales and a true ephah and a true bath.
Eze45:12 And the shekel is to be twenty gerahs: five shekels are five, and ten shekels are ten, and your maneh is to be fifty shekels
Eze45:13 This is the offering you are to give: a sixth of an ephah out of a homer of wheat, and a sixth of an ephah out of a homer of barley;
Eze45:14 And the fixed measure of oil is to be a tenth of a bath from the cor, for ten baths make up the cor;
Eze45:21 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, you are to have the Passover, a feast of seven days; unleavened bread is to be your food.
Eze46:16 This is what the Lord has said: If the ruler gives a property to any of his sons, it is his heritage and will be the property of his sons; it is theirs for their heritage.
Eze46:18 And the ruler is not to take the heritage of any of the people, driving them out of their property; he is to give a heritage to his sons out of the property which is his: so that my people may not be sent away from their property.
Eze47:13 This is what the Lord has said: These are the limits by which you will take up your heritage in the land among the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph is to have two parts.
Eze47:14 And you are to make an equal division of it; as I gave my oath to your fathers to give it to you: for this land is to be your heritage.
Eze47:18 And the east side will be from Hazar-enon, which is between Hauran and Damascus; and between Gilead and the land of Israel the Jordan will be the limit, to the east sea, to Tamar. This is the east side.
Eze47:21 You will make a division of the land among you, tribe by tribe.
Eze47:22 And you are to make a distribution of it, by the decision of the Lord, for a heritage to you and to the men from other lands who are living among you and who have children in your land: they will be the same to you as if they were Israelites by birth, they will have their heritage with you among the tribes of Israel.
Eze47:23 In whatever tribe the man from a strange land is living, there you are to give him his heritage, says the Lord.
Eze48:8 And on the limit of Judah, from the east side to the west side, will be the offering which you are to make, twenty-five thousand wide, and as long as one of the parts, from the east side to the west side: and the holy place will be in the middle of it.
Eze48:9 The offering you will give to the Lord is to be twenty-five thousand long and twenty-five thousand wide.
Eze48:11 For the priests who have been made holy, those of the sons of Zadok who kept the orders I gave them, who did not go out of the right way when the children of Israel went from the way, as the Levites did,
Eze48:12 Even for them will be the offering from the offering of the land, a thing most holy, on the limit of the land given to the Levites.
Eze48:20 The size of the offering all together is to be twenty-five thousand by twenty-five thousand: you are to make the holy offering a square, together with the property of the town.
Eze48:29 This is the land of which distribution is to be made by the decision of the Lord, among the tribes of Israel for their heritage, and these are their heritages, says the Lord.
Dan1:4 Young men who were strong and healthy, good-looking, and trained in all wisdom, having a good education and much knowledge, and able to take positions in the king's house; and to have them trained in the writing and language of the Chaldaeans.
Dan1:5 And a regular amount of food and wine every day from the king's table was ordered for them by the king; and they were to be cared for for three years so that at the end of that time they might take their places before the king.
Dan1:6 And among these there were, of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.
Dan1:7 And the captain of the unsexed servants gave them names; to Daniel he gave the name of Belteshazzar, to Hananiah the name of Shadrach, to Mishael the name of Meshach, and to Azariah the name of Abed-nego.
Dan1:10 And the captain of the unsexed servants said to Daniel, I am in fear of my lord the king, who has given orders about your food and your drink; what if he sees you looking less happy than the other young men of your generation? then you would have put my head in danger from the king.
Dan1:12 Put your servants to the test for ten days; let them give us grain for our food and water for our drink.
Dan1:13 Then take a look at our faces and the faces of the young men who have food from the king's table; and, having seen them, do to your servants as it seems right to you.
Dan1:14 So he gave ear to them in this thing and put them to the test for ten days.
Dan1:15 And at the end of ten days their faces seemed fairer and they were fatter in flesh than all the young men who had their food from the king's table.
Dan1:16 So the keeper regularly took away their meat and the wine which was to have been their drink, and gave them grain.
Dan1:17 Now as for these four young men, God gave them knowledge and made them expert in all book-learning and wisdom: and Daniel was wise in all visions and dreams.
Dan1:18 Now at the end of the time fixed by the king for them to go in, the captain of the unsexed servants took them in to Nebuchadnezzar.
Dan1:19 And the king had talk with them; and among them all there was no one like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah; so they were given places before the king.
Dan1:20 And in any business needing wisdom and good sense, about which the king put questions to them, he saw that they were ten times better than all the wonder-workers and users of secret arts in all his kingdom.
Dan2:2 Then the king gave orders that the wonder-workers, and the users of secret arts, and those who made use of evil powers, and the Chaldaeans, were to be sent for to make clear to the king his dreams. So they came and took their places before the king.
Dan2:3 And the king said to them, I have had a dream, and my spirit is troubled by the desire to have the dream made clear to me.
Dan2:5 The king made answer and said to the Chaldaeans, This is my decision: if you do not make clear to me the dream and the sense of it, you will be cut in bits and your houses made waste.
Dan2:6 But if you make clear the dream and the sense of it, you will have from me offerings and rewards and great honour: so make clear to me the dream and the sense of it.
Dan2:7 A second time they said in answer, Let the king give his servants an account of his dream, and we will make clear the sense.
Dan2:8 The king made answer and said, I am certain that you are attempting to get more time, because you see that my decision is fixed;
Dan2:9 That if you do not make my dream clear to me there is only one fate for you: for you have made ready false and evil words to say before me till the times are changed: so give me an account of the dream, and I will be certain that you are able to make the sense of it clear.
Dan2:13 So the order went out that the wise men were to be put to death; and they were looking for Daniel and his friends to put them to death.
Dan2:18 So that they might make a request for the mercy of the God of heaven in the question of this secret; so that Daniel and his friends might not come to destruction with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
Dan2:23 I give you praise and worship, O God of my fathers, who have given me wisdom and strength, and have now made clear to me what we were requesting from you: for you have given us knowledge of the king's business.
Dan2:36 This is the dream; and we will make clear to the king the sense of it.
Dan2:47 And the king made answer to Daniel and said, Truly, your God is a God of gods and a Lord of kings, and an unveiler of secrets, for you have been able to make this secret clear.
Dan3:4 Then one of the king's criers said in a loud voice, To you the order is given, O peoples, nations, and languages,
Dan3:5 That when the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe, and all sorts of instruments, comes to your ears, you are to go down on your faces in worship before the image of gold which Nebuchadnezzar the king has put up:
Dan3:9 They made answer and said to Nebuchadnezzar the king, O King, have life for ever.
Dan3:13 Then Nebuchadnezzar in his wrath and passion gave orders for Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego to be sent for. Then they made these men come in before the king.
Dan3:14 Nebuchadnezzar made answer and said to them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, that you will not be servants of my god or give worship to the image of gold which I have put up?
Dan3:15 Now if you are ready, on hearing the sound of the horn, pipe, harp, trigon, psaltery, bagpipe, and all sorts of instruments, to go down on your faces in worship before the image which I have made, it is well: but if you will not give worship, that same hour you will be put into a burning and flaming fire; and what god is there who will be able to take you out of my hands?
Dan3:16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, answering Nebuchadnezzar the king, said, There is no need for us to give you an answer to this question.
Dan3:17 If our God, whose servants we are, is able to keep us safe from the burning and flaming fire, and from your hands, O King, he will keep us safe.
Dan3:18 But if not, be certain, O King, that we will not be the servants of your gods, or give worship to the image of gold which you have put up.
Dan3:24 Then King Nebuchadnezzar, full of fear and wonder, got up quickly, and said to his wise men, Did we not put three men in cords into the fire? and they made answer and said to the king, True, O King.
Dan3:27 And the captains, the chiefs, and the rulers, and the king's wise men who had come together, saw these men, over whose bodies the fire had no power, and not a hair of their heads was burned, and their coats were not changed, and there was no smell of fire about them.
Dan3:28 Nebuchadnezzar made answer and said, Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, who has sent his angel and kept his servants safe who had faith in him, and who put the king's word on one side and gave up their bodies to the fire, so that they might not be servants or worshippers of any other god but their God.
Dan4:1 Nebuchadnezzar the king, to all the peoples, nations, and languages living in all the earth: May your peace be increased.
Dan4:6 And I gave orders for all the wise men of Babylon to come in before me so that they might make clear to me the sense of my dream.
Dan4:7 Then the wonder-workers, the users of secret arts, the Chaldaeans, and the readers of signs came in to me: and I put the dream before them but they did not make clear the sense of it to me.
Dan5:3 Then they took in the gold and silver vessels which had been in the Temple of the house of God at Jerusalem; and the king and his lords, his wives and his other women, took wine from them.
Dan5:4 They took their wine and gave praise to the gods of gold and silver, of brass and iron and wood and stone.
Dan5:15 And now the wise men, the users of secret arts, have been sent in before me for the purpose of reading this writing and making clear to me the sense of it: but they are not able to make clear the sense of the thing:
Dan6:3 And over them were three chief rulers, of whom Daniel was one; and the captains were to be responsible to the chief rulers, so that the king might undergo no loss.
Dan6:6 Then these men said, We will only get a reason for attacking Daniel in connection with the law of his God.
Dan6:13 Then they came near before the king and said, O King, have you not put your name to an order that any man who makes a request to any god or man but you, O King, for thirty days, is to be put into the lions' hole? The king made answer and said, The thing is fixed by the law of the Medes and Persians which may not come to an end.
Dan6:14 Then they made answer and said before the king, Daniel, one of the prisoners of Judah, has no respect for you, O King, or for the order signed by you, but three times a day he makes his prayer to God.
Dan6:25 And at the king's order, they took those men who had said evil against Daniel, and put them in the lions' hole, with their wives and their children; and they had not got to the floor of the hole before the lions overcame them and all their bones were broken.
Dan6:26 Then King Darius sent a letter to all the peoples, nations, and languages, living in all the earth: May your peace be increased.
Dan7:21 And I saw how that horn made war on the saints and overcame them,
Dan9:5 We are sinners, acting wrongly and doing evil; we have gone against you, turning away from your orders and from your laws:
Dan9:6 We have not given ear to your servants the prophets, who said words in your name to our kings and our rulers and our fathers and all the people of the land.
Dan9:7 O Lord, righteousness is yours, but shame is on us, even to this day; and on the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem, and on all Israel, those who are near and those who are far off, in all the countries where you have sent them because of the sin which they have done against you.
Dan9:8 O Lord, shame is on us, on our kings and our rulers and our fathers, because of our sin against you.
Dan9:9 With the Lord our God are mercies and forgiveness, for we have gone against him;
Dan9:10 And have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God to go in the way of his laws which he put before us by the mouth of his servants the prophets.
Dan9:11 And all Israel have been sinners against your law, turning away so as not to give ear to your voice: and the curse has been let loose on us, and the oath recorded in the law of Moses, the servant of God, for we have done evil against him.
Dan9:12 And he has given effect to his words which he said against us and against those who were our judges, by sending a great evil on us: for under all heaven there has not been done what has been done to Jerusalem.
Dan9:13 As it was recorded in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us: but we have made no prayer for grace from the Lord our God that we might be turned from our evil doings and come to true wisdom.
Dan9:14 So the Lord has been watching over this evil and has made it come on us: for the Lord our God is upright in all his acts which he has done, and we have not given ear to his voice.
Dan9:15 And now, O Lord our God, who took your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand and made a great name for yourself even to this day; we are sinners, we have done evil.
Dan9:16 O Lord, because of your righteousness, let your wrath and your passion be turned away from your town Jerusalem, your holy mountain: because, through our sins and the evil-doing of our fathers, Jerusalem and your people have become a cause of shame to all who are round about us.
Dan9:17 And now, give ear, O our God, to the prayer of your servant and to his request for grace, and let your face be shining on your holy place which is made waste, because of your servants, O Lord.
Dan9:18 O my God, let your ear be turned and give hearing; let your eyes be open and see how we have been made waste and the town which is named by your name: for we are not offering our prayers before you because of our righteousness, but because of your great mercies.
Dan10:7 And I, Daniel, was the only one who saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see it; but a great shaking came on them and they went in flight to take cover.
Dan11:1 And as for me, in the first year of Darius the Mede I was on his side to make his position safe and make him strong.
Dan11:7 But out of a branch from her roots one will come up to take his place, who will come against the army, forcing his way into the strong place of the king of the north, and he will take them in hand and overcome them:
Dan11:8 And their gods and their metal images and their fair vessels of silver and gold he will take away into the south; and for some years he will keep away from the king of the north.
Dan11:9 And he will come into the kingdom of the king of the south, but he will go back to his land.
Dan11:15 So the king of the north will come, and put up earthworks and take a well-armed town: and the forces of the king of the south will make an attempt to keep their position, even the best of his army, but they will not have strength to do so.
Dan11:28 And he will go back to his land with great wealth; and his heart will be against the holy agreement; and he will do his pleasure and go back to his land.
Dan11:34 Now at the time of their downfall they will have a little help, but numbers will be joined to them in the town, and in their separate heritages.
Dan11:35 And some of those who are wise will have wisdom in testing themselves and making themselves clean, till the time of the end: for it is still for the fixed time.
Dan11:36 And the king will do his pleasure; he will put himself on high, lifting himself over every god, and saying things to be wondered at against the God of gods; and all will be well for him till the wrath is complete; for what has been purposed will be done.
Dan11:40 And at the time of the end, the king of the south will make an attack on him: and the king of the north will come against him like a storm-wind, with war-carriages and horsemen and numbers of ships; and he will go through many lands like overflowing waters.
Hos1:6 And after that she gave birth to a daughter. And the Lord said, Give her the name Lo-ruhamah; for I will not again have mercy on Israel, to give them forgiveness.
Hos1:7 But I will have mercy on Judah and will give them salvation by the Lord their God, but not by the bow or the sword or by fighting or by horses or horsemen.
Hos1:9 And the Lord said, Give him the name Lo-ammi; for you are not my people, and I will not be your God.
Hos1:10 But still the number of the children of Israel will be like the sand of the sea, which may not be measured or numbered; and in place of its being said to them, You are not my people, it will be said to them, You are the sons of the living God
Hos2:1 Say to your brothers, Ammi; and to your sisters, Ruhamah.
Hos2:2 Take up the cause against your mother, take it up, for she is not my wife, and I am not her husband; let her put away her loose ways from her face, and her false ways from between her breasts;
Hos2:4 And I will have no mercy on her children, for they are the children of her loose ways.
Hos2:5 For their mother has been untrue; she who gave them birth has done things of shame, for she said, I will go after my lovers, who give me my bread and my water, my wool and my linen, my oil and my wine.
Hos2:7 And if she goes after her lovers she will not overtake them; if she makes search for them she will not see them; then will she say, I will go back to my first husband, for then it was better for me than now.
Hos2:18 And in that day I will make an agreement for them with the beasts of the field and the birds of heaven and the things which go low on the earth; I will put an end to the bow and the sword and war in all the land, and will make them take their rest in peace.
Hos3:1 And the Lord said to me, Give your love again to a woman who has a lover and is false to her husband, even as the Lord has love for the children of Israel, though they are turned to other gods and are lovers of grape-cakes.
Hos3:5 And after that, the children of Israel will come back and go in search of the Lord their God and David their king; and they will come in fear to the Lord and to his mercies in the days to come.
Hos4:1 Give ear to the word of the Lord, O children of Israel; for the Lord has a cause against the people of this land, because there is no good faith in it, and no mercy and no knowledge of God in the land.
Hos4:7 Even while they were increasing in number they were sinning against me; I will let their glory be changed into shame.
Hos4:8 The sin of my people is like food to them; and their desire is for their wrongdoing.
Hos4:9 And the priest will be like the people; I will give them punishment for their evil ways, and the reward of their acts.
Hos4:10 They will have food, but they will not be full; they will be false to me, but they will not be increased, because they no longer give thought to the Lord.
Hos4:12 My people get knowledge from their tree, and their rod gives them news; for a false spirit is the cause of their wandering, and they have been false to their God.
Hos4:13 They make offerings on the tops of mountains, burning perfumes in high places, under trees of every sort, because their shade is good: and so your daughters are given up to loose ways and your brides are false to their husbands.
Hos4:14 I will not give punishment to your daughters or your brides for their evil behaviour; for they make themselves separate with loose women, and make offerings with those who are used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods: the people who have no wisdom will be sent away.
Hos4:16 For Israel is uncontrolled, like a cow which may not be controlled; now will the Lord give them food like a lamb in a wide place.
Hos4:18 Their drink has become bitter; they are completely false; her rulers take pleasure in shame.
Hos4:19 They are folded in the skirts of the wind; they will be shamed because of their offerings.
Hos5:1 Give ear to this, O priests; give attention, O Israel, and you, family of the king; for you are to be judged; you have been a deceit at Mizpah and a net stretched out on Tabor.
Hos5:2 They have gone deep in the evil ways of Shittim, but I am the judge of all.
Hos5:4 Their works will not let them come back to their God, for a false spirit is in them and they have no knowledge of the Lord.
Hos5:5 And the pride of Israel gives an answer to his face; and Ephraim will have a fall through his sins, and the fall of Judah will be the same as theirs.
Hos5:6 They will go, with their flocks and their herds, in search of the Lord, but they will not see him; he has taken himself out of their view.
Hos5:7 They have been false to the Lord; they have given birth to strange children; now the new moon will make them waste with their fields.
Hos5:8 Let the horn be sounded in Gibeah and in Ramah; give a loud cry in Beth-aven, They are after you, O Benjamin.
Hos5:10 The rulers of Judah are like those who take away a landmark; I will let loose my wrath on them like flowing water.
Hos5:13 When Ephraim saw his disease and Judah his wound, then Ephraim went to Assyria and sent to the great king; but he is not able to make you well or give you help for your wound.
Hos5:15 I will go back to my place till they are made waste; in their trouble they will go after me early and will make search for me.
Hos6:1 Come, let us go back to the Lord; for he has given us wounds and he will make us well; he has given blows and he will give help.
Hos6:2 After two days he will give us life, and on the third day he will make us get up, and we will be living before him.
Hos6:3 And let us have knowledge, let us go after the knowledge of the Lord; his going out is certain as the dawn, his decisions go out like the light; he will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain watering the earth.
Hos6:4 O Ephraim, what am I to do to you? O Judah, what am I to do to you? For your love is like a morning cloud, and like the dew which goes early away.
Hos6:5 So I have had it cut in stones; I gave them teaching by the words of my mouth;
Hos6:7 But like a man, they have gone against the agreement; there they were false to me.
Hos7:1 When my desire was for the fate of my people to be changed and to make Israel well, then the sin of Ephraim was made clear, and the evil-doing of Samaria; for their ways are false, and the thief comes into the house, while the band of outlaws takes property by force in the streets.
Hos7:2 And they do not say to themselves that I keep in mind all their sin; now their evil acts come round them on every side; they are before my face.
Hos7:3 In their sin they make a king for themselves, and rulers in their deceit.
Hos7:4 They are all untrue; they are like a burning oven; the bread-maker does not make up the fire from the time when the paste is mixed till it is leavened.
Hos7:5 On the day of our king, the rulers made him ill with the heat of wine; his hand was stretched out with the men of pride.
Hos7:7 They are all heated like an oven, and they put an end to their judges; all their kings have been made low; not one among them makes prayer to me.
Hos7:10 And the pride of Israel gives an answer to his face; but for all this, they have not gone back to the Lord their God, or made search for him.
Hos7:11 And Ephraim is like a foolish dove, without wisdom; they send out their cry to Egypt, they go to Assyria.
Hos7:12 When they go, my net will be stretched out over them; I will take them like the birds of heaven, I will give them punishment, I will take them away in the net for their sin.
Hos7:13 May trouble be theirs! for they have gone far away from me; and destruction, for they have been sinning against me; I was ready to be their saviour, but they said false words against me.
Hos7:14 And they have not made prayer to me in their hearts, but they make loud cries on their beds; they are cutting themselves for food and wine, they are turned against me.
Hos7:15 Though I have given training and strength to their arms, they have evil designs against me.
Hos7:16 They have gone to what is of no value; they are like a false bow; their captains will come to destruction by the sword, and their ruler by my wrath; for this, the land of Egypt will make sport of them.
Hos8:2 They will send up to me a cry for help: We, Israel, have knowledge of you, O God of Israel.
Hos8:4 They have put up kings, but not by me; they have made princes, but I had no knowledge of it; they have made images of silver and gold, so that they may be cut off.
Hos8:5 I will have nothing to do with your young ox, O Samaria; my wrath is burning against them; how long will it be before the children of Israel make themselves clean?
Hos8:7 For they have been planting the wind, and their fruit will be the storm; his grain has no stem, it will give no meal, and if it does, a strange nation will take it.
Hos8:9 For they have gone up to Assyria like an ass going by himself; Ephraim has given money to get lovers.
Hos8:10 But though they give money to the nations for help, still I will send them in all directions; and in a short time they will be without a king and rulers.
Hos8:13 He gives the offerings of his lovers, and takes the flesh for food; but the Lord has no pleasure in them; now he will keep in mind their evil-doing and give them the punishment of their sins; they will go back to Egypt.
Hos9:3 They will have no resting-place in the Lord's land, but Ephraim will go back to Egypt, and they will take unclean food in Assyria.
Hos9:4 They will give no wine offering to the Lord, they will not make offerings ready for him; their bread will be like the bread of those in sorrow; all who take it will be unclean, because their bread will be only for their desire, it will not come into the house of the Lord.
Hos9:5 What will you do on the day of worship, and on the day of the feast of the Lord?
Hos9:6 For see, they are going away into Assyria; Egypt will get them together, Memphis will be their last resting-place; their fair silver vessels will be covered over with field plants, and thorns will come up in their tents.
Hos9:7 The days of punishment, the days of reward are come; Israel will be put to shame; the prophet is foolish, the man who has the spirit is off his head, because of your great sin.
Hos9:9 They have gone deep in evil as in the days of Gibeah; he will keep in mind their wrongdoing, he will give them punishment for their sins.
Hos9:10 I made discovery of Israel as of grapes in the waste land; I saw your fathers as the first-fruits of the fig-tree in her early fruit time; but they came to Baal-peor, and made themselves holy to the thing of shame, and became disgusting like that to which they gave their love.
Hos9:11 As for Ephraim, their glory will go in flight like a bird: there will be no birth and no one with child and no giving of life.
Hos9:12 Even though their children have come to growth I will take them away, so that not a man will be there; for their evil-doing will be complete and they will be put to shame because of it.
Hos9:14 O Lord, what will you give them? Give them bodies which may not give birth and breasts without milk.
Hos9:15 All their evil-doing is in Gilgal; there I had hate for them; because of their evil-doing I will send them out of my house; they will no longer be dear to me; all their rulers are uncontrolled.
Hos9:16 The rod has come on Ephraim, their root is dry, let them have no fruit; even though they give birth, I will put to death the dearest fruit of their bodies.
Hos9:17 My God will give them up because they did not give ear to him; they will be wandering among the nations.
Hos10:2 Their mind is taken away; now they will be made waste: he will have their altars broken down, he will give their pillars to destruction.
Hos10:3 Now, truly, they will say, We have no king, we have no fear of the Lord; and the king, what is he able to do for us?
Hos10:4 Their words are foolish; they make agreements with false oaths, so punishment will come up like a poison-plant in a ploughed field.
Hos10:8 And the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, will come to destruction; thorns and waste plants will come up on their altars; they will say to the mountains, Be a cover over us; and to the hills, Come down on us.
Hos10:9 O Israel, you have done evil from the days of Gibeah; there they took up their position, so that the fighting against the children of evil might not overtake them in Gibeah.
Hos10:10 I will come and give them punishment; and the peoples will come together against them when I give them the reward of their two sins.
Hos10:12 Put in the seed of righteousness, get in your grain in mercy, let your unploughed earth be turned up: for it is time to make search for the Lord, till he comes and sends righteousness on you like rain.
Hos10:13 You have been ploughing sin, you have got in a store of evil, the fruit of deceit has been your food: for you put faith in your way, in the number of your men of war.
Hos10:15 So will Beth-el do to you because of your evil-doing; at dawn will the king of Israel be cut off completely.
Hos11:2 When I sent for them, then they went away from me; they made offerings to the Baals, burning perfumes to images.
Hos11:3 But I was guiding Ephraim's footsteps; I took them up in my arms, but they were not conscious that I was ready to make them well.
Hos11:4 I made them come after me with the cords of a man, with the bands of love; I was to them as one who took the yoke from off their mouths, putting meat before them.
Hos11:5 He will go back to the land of Egypt and the Assyrian will be his king, because they would not come back to me.
Hos11:6 And the sword will go through his towns, wasting his children and causing destruction because of their evil designs.
Hos11:7 My people are given up to sinning against me; though their voice goes up on high, no one will be lifting them up.
Hos11:9 I will not put into effect the heat of my wrath; I will not again send destruction on Ephraim; for I am God and not man, the Holy One among you; I will not put an end to you.
Hos11:10 They will go after the Lord; his cry will be like that of a lion; his cry will be loud, and the children will come from the west, shaking with fear;
Hos11:11 Shaking with fear like a bird, they will come out of Egypt, like a dove out of the land of Assyria: and I will give them rest in their houses, says the Lord.
Hos12:5 He had a fight with the angel and overcame him; he made request for grace to him with weeping; he came face to face with him in Beth-el and there his words came to him;
Hos12:12 In Gilead there is evil. They are quite without value; in Gilgal they make offerings of oxen; truly their altars are like masses of stones in the hollows of a ploughed field.
Hos13:2 And now their sins are increased; they have made themselves a metal image, false gods from their silver, after their designs, all of them the work of the metal-workers; they say of them, Let them give offerings, let men give kisses to the oxen.
Hos13:3 So they will be like the morning cloud, like the dew which goes early away, like the dust of the grain which the wind is driving out of the crushing-floor, like smoke going up from the fireplace.
Hos13:7 So I will be like a lion to them; as a cruel beast I will keep watch by the road;
Hos13:8 I will come face to face with them like a bear whose young ones have been taken from her, and their inmost hearts will be broken; there the dogs will make a meal of them; they will be wounded by the beasts of the field.
Hos13:14 I will give the price to make them free from the power of the underworld, I will be their saviour from death: O death! where are your pains? O underworld! where is your destruction? my eyes will have no pity.
Hos14:3 Take with you words, and come back to the Lord; say to him, Let there be forgiveness for all wrongdoing, so that we may take what is good, and give in payment the fruit of our lips.
Hos14:4 Assyria will not be our salvation; we will not go on horses; we will not again say to the work of our hands, You are our gods; for in you there is mercy for the child who has no father.
Hos14:5 I will put right their errors; freely will my love be given to them, for my wrath is turned away from him.
Joe1:2 Give ear to this, you old men, and take note, you people of the land. Has this ever been in your days, or in the days of your fathers?
Joe1:3 Give the story of it to your children, and let them give it to their children, and their children to another generation.
Joe1:5 Come out of your sleep, you who are overcome with wine, and give yourselves to weeping; give cries of sorrow, all you drinkers of wine, because of the sweet wine; for it has been cut off from your mouths.
Joe1:11 The farmers are shamed, the workers in the vine-gardens give cries of grief, for the wheat and the barley; for the produce of the fields has come to destruction.
Joe1:13 Put haircloth round you and give yourselves to sorrow, you priests; give cries of grief, you servants of the altar: come in, and, clothed in haircloth, let the night go past, you servants of my God: for the meal offering and the drink offering have been kept back from the house of your God.
Joe1:14 Let a time be fixed for going without food, have a holy meeting, let the old men, even all the people of the land, come together to the house of the Lord your God, crying out to the Lord.
Joe1:16 Is not food cut off before our eyes? joy and delight from the house of our God?
Joe2:1 Let the horn be sounded in Zion, and a war-cry in my holy mountain; let all the people of the land be troubled: for the day of the Lord is coming;
Joe2:3 Before them fire sends destruction, and after them flame is burning: the land is like the garden of Eden before them, and after them an unpeopled waste; truly, nothing has been kept safe from them.
Joe2:4 Their form is like the form of horses, and they are running like war-horses.
Joe2:6 At their coming the people are bent with pain: all faces become red together.
Joe2:7 They are running like strong men, they go over the wall like men of war; every man goes straight on his way, their lines are not broken.
Joe2:9 They make a rush on the town, running on the wall; they go up into the houses and in through the windows like a thief.
Joe2:10 The earth is troubled before them and the heavens are shaking: the sun and the moon have become dark, and the stars keep back their shining:
Joe2:12 But even now, says the Lord, come back to me with all your heart, keeping from food, with weeping and with sorrow:
Joe2:13 Let your hearts be broken, and not your clothing, and come back to the Lord your God: for he is full of grace and pity, slow to be angry and great in mercy, ready to be turned from his purpose of punishment.
Joe2:14 May it not be that he will again let his purpose be changed and let a blessing come after him, even a meal offering and a drink offering for the Lord your God?
Joe2:15 Let a horn be sounded in Zion, let a time be fixed for going without food, have a holy meeting:
Joe2:17 Let the priests, the servants of the Lord, be weeping between the covered way and the altar, and let them say, Have mercy on your people, O Lord, do not give up your heritage to shame, so that the nations become their rulers: why let them say among the peoples, Where is their God?
Joe2:19 And the Lord made answer and said to his people, See, I will send you grain and wine and oil in full measure: and I will no longer let you be shamed among the nations:
Joe2:20 I will send the one from the north far away from you, driving him into a dry and waste land, with his front to the sea of the east and his back to the sea of the west, and the smell of him will go up, even his evil smell will go up.
Joe2:23 Be glad, then, you children of Zion, and have joy in the Lord your God: for he gives you food in full measure, making the rain come down for you, the early and the late rain as at the first.
Joe2:25 I will give back to you the years which were food for the locust, the plant-worm, the field-fly, and the worm, my great army which I sent among you.
Joe2:26 You will have food in full measure, and give praise to the name of the Lord your God, who has done wonders for you:
Joe2:27 And you will be certain that I am in Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and there is no other: and my people will never be shamed.
Joe2:28 And after that, it will come about, says the Lord, that I will send my spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will be prophets, your old men will have dreams, your young men will see visions:
Joe3:2 I will get together all the nations, and make them come down into the valley of Jehoshaphat; and there I will take up with them the cause of my people and of my heritage Israel, whom they have sent wandering among the nations, and of my land which has been parted by them.
Joe3:4 And further, what are you to me, O Tyre and Zidon and all the circle of Philistia? will you give me back any payment? and if you do, quickly and suddenly I will send it back on your head,
Joe3:5 For you have taken my silver and my gold, putting in the houses of your gods my beautiful and pleasing things.
Joe3:6 And the children of Judah and the children of Jerusalem you have given for a price to the sons of the Greeks, to send them far away from their land:
Joe3:7 See, I will have them moved from the place where you have sent them, and will let what you have done come back on your head;
Joe3:8 I will give your sons and your daughters into the hands of the children of Judah for a price, and they will give them for a price to the men of Sheba, a nation far off: for the Lord has said it.
Joe3:11 Come quickly, all you nations round about, and get yourselves together there: make your strong ones come down, O Lord.
Joe3:13 Put in the blade, for the grain is ready: come, get you down, for the wine-crusher is full, the vessels are overflowing; for great is their evil-doing.
Joe3:17 And you will be certain that I am the Lord your God, living in Zion, my holy mountain: and Jerusalem will be holy, and no strange person will ever again go through her.
Amo1:13 These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because in Gilead they had women with child cut open, so that they might make wider the limits of their land.
Amo1:15 And their king will be made prisoner, he and his captains together, says the Lord.
Amo2:4 These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Judah, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they have given up the law of the Lord, and have not kept his rules; and their false ways, in which their fathers went, have made them go out of the right way.
Amo2:6 These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Israel, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they have given the upright man for silver, and the poor for the price of two shoes;
Amo2:7 Crushing the head of the poor, and turning the steps of the gentle out of the way: and a man and his father go in to the same young woman, putting shame on my holy name:
Amo2:8 By every altar they are stretched on clothing taken from those who are in their debt, drinking in the house of their god the wine of those who have made payment for wrongdoing.
Amo2:10 And I took you up out of the land of Egypt, guiding you for forty years in the waste land, so that you might take for your heritage the land of the Amorite.
Amo2:11 And some of your sons I made prophets, and some of your young men I made separate for myself. Is it not even so, O children of Israel? says the Lord.
Amo2:12 But to those who were separate you gave wine for drink; and to the prophets you said, Be prophets no longer.
Amo2:13 See, I am crushing you down, as one is crushed under a cart full of grain.
Amo3:1 Give ear to this word which the Lord has said against you, O children of Israel, against all the family which I took up out of the land of Egypt, saying,
Amo3:2 You only of all the families of the earth have I taken care of: for this reason I will send punishment on you for all your sins.
Amo3:9 Give out the news in the great houses of Assyria and in the land of Egypt, and say, Come together on the mountains of Samaria, and see what great outcries are there, and what cruel acts are done in it.
Amo3:12 These are the words of the Lord: As the keeper of sheep takes out of the mouth of the lion two legs or part of an ear; so will the children of Israel be made safe, who are resting in Samaria on seats of honour or on the silk cushions of a bed.
Amo4:1 Give ear to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are in the hill of Samaria, by whom the poor are kept down, and those in need are crushed; who say to their lords, Get out the wine and give us drink.
Amo4:2 The Lord God has taken an oath by his holy name, that the days are coming when they will take you away with hooks, and the rest of you with fish-hooks.
Amo4:3 And you will go out through the broken places, every one going straight before her, and you will be sent into Harmon, says the Lord.
Amo4:4 Come to Beth-el and do evil; to Gilgal, increasing the number of your sins; come with your offerings every morning and your tenths every three days:
Amo4:5 Let that which is leavened be burned as a praise-offering, let the news of your free offerings be given out publicly; for this is pleasing to you, O children of Israel, says the Lord.
Amo4:6 But in all your towns I have kept food from your teeth, and in all your places there has been need of bread: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.
Amo4:7 And I have kept back the rain from you, when it was still three months before the grain-cutting: I sent rain on one town and kept it back from another: one part was rained on, and the part where there was no rain became a waste.
Amo4:8 So two or three towns went wandering to one town looking for water, and did not get enough: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.
Amo4:9 I have sent destruction on your fields by burning and disease: the increase of your gardens and your vine-gardens, your fig-trees and your olive-trees, has been food for worms: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.
Amo4:10 I have sent disease among you, as it was in Egypt: I have put your young men to the sword, and have taken away your horses; I have made the evil smell from your tents come up to your noses: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.
Amo4:11 And I have sent destruction among you, as when God sent destruction on Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a burning stick pulled out of the fire: and still you have not come back to me, says the Lord.
Amo5:1 Give ear to this word, my song of sorrow over you, O children of Israel.
Amo5:4 For these are the words of the Lord to the children of Israel: Let your hearts be turned to me, so that you may have life:
Amo5:7 You who make the work of judging a bitter thing, crushing down righteousness to the earth;
Amo5:10 They have hate for him who makes protest against evil in the public place, and he whose words are upright is disgusting to them.
Amo5:11 So because the poor man is crushed under your feet, and you take taxes from him of grain: you have made for yourselves houses of cut stone, but you will not take your rest in them; the fair vine-gardens planted by your hands will not give you wine.
Amo5:12 For I have seen how your evil-doing is increased and how strong are your sins, you troublers of the upright, who take rewards and do wrong to the cause of the poor in the public place.
Amo5:14 Go after good and not evil, so that life may be yours: and so the Lord, the God of armies, will be with you, as you say.
Amo5:18 Sorrow to you who are looking for the day of the Lord! what is the day of the Lord to you? it is dark and not light.
Amo5:21 Your feasts are disgusting to me, I will have nothing to do with them; I will take no delight in your holy meetings.
Amo5:22 Even if you give me your burned offerings and your meal offerings, I will not take pleasure in them: I will have nothing to do with the peace-offerings of your fat beasts.
Amo5:23 Take away from me the noise of your songs; my ears are shut to the melody of your instruments.
Amo5:25 Did you come to me with offerings of beasts and meal offerings in the waste land for forty years, O Israel?
Amo5:26 Truly, you will take up Saccuth your king and Kaiwan your images, the star of your god, which you made for yourselves.
Amo5:27 And I will send you away as prisoners farther than Damascus, says the Lord, whose name is the God of armies.
Amo6:2 Go on to Calneh and see; and from there go to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines: are you better than these kingdoms? or is your land wider than theirs?
Amo6:3 You who put far away the evil day, causing the rule of the violent to come near;
Amo6:4 Who are resting on beds of ivory, stretched out on soft seats, feasting on lambs from the flock and young oxen from the cattle-house;
Amo6:10 And when a man's relation, even the one who is responsible for burning his body, lifting him up to take his bones out of the house, says to him who is in the inmost part of the house, Is there still anyone with you? and he says, No; then he will say, Keep quiet, for the name of the Lord may not be named.
Amo6:12 Is it possible for horses to go running on the rock? may the sea be ploughed with oxen? for the right to be turned by you into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into a bitter plant?
Amo6:13 You whose joy is in a thing of no value, who say, Have we not taken for ourselves horns by the strength which is ours?
Amo6:14 For see, I will send against you a nation, O Israel, says the Lord, the God of armies, ruling you cruelly from the way into Hamath as far as the stream of the Arabah.
Amo7:8 And the Lord said to me, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A weighted line. Then the Lord said, See, I will let down a weighted line among my people Israel; never again will my eyes be shut to their sin:
Amo8:2 And he said, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then the Lord said to me, The end has come to my people Israel; never again will my eyes be shut to their sin.
Amo8:4 Give ear to this, you who are crushing the poor, and whose purpose is to put an end to those who are in need in the land,
Amo8:5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, so that we may do trade in grain? and the Sabbath, so that we may put out in the market the produce of our fields? making the measure small and the price great, and trading falsely with scales of deceit;
Amo8:7 The Lord has taken an oath by the pride of Jacob, Truly I will ever keep in mind all their works.
Amo8:10 Your feasts will be turned into sorrow and all your melody into songs of grief; everyone will be clothed with haircloth, and the hair of every head will be cut; I will make the weeping like that for an only son, and the end of it like a bitter day.
Amo8:12 And they will go wandering from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, running here and there in search of the word of the Lord, and they will not get it.
Amo8:14 Those who make their oaths by the sin of Samaria and say, By the life of your God, O Dan; and, By the living way of Beer-sheba; even they will go down, never again to be lifted up.
Amo9:2 Even if they go deep into the underworld, my hand will take them up from there; if they go up to heaven, I will get them down:
Amo9:3 Though they take cover on the top of Carmel, I will go in search of them and get them out; though they keep themselves from my eyes in the bed of the sea, I will give orders to the great snake there and he will give them a bite:
Amo9:4 And though they are taken away as prisoners by their attackers, even there will I give orders to the sword to put them to death: my eyes will be fixed on them for evil and not for good.
Amo9:7 Are you not as the children of the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel? says the Lord. Have I not taken Israel up out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Aramaeans from Kir?
Amo9:10 All those sinners among my people will be put to the sword who say, Evil will not overtake us or come face to face with us.
Amo9:14 And I will let the fate of my people Israel be changed, and they will be building up again the waste towns and living in them; they will again be planting vine-gardens and taking the wine for their drink; and they will make gardens and get the fruit of them.
Amo9:15 And I will have them planted in their land, and never again will they be uprooted from their land which I have given them, says the Lord your God.
Oba1:11 Because you were there watching when men from other lands took away his goods, and strange men came into his doors, and put the fate of Jerusalem to the decision of chance; you were like one of them.
Oba1:12 Do not see with pleasure your brother's evil day, the day of his fate, and do not be glad over the children of Judah on the day of their destruction, or make wide your mouth on the day of trouble.
Oba1:13 Do not go into the doors of my people on the day of their downfall; do not be looking on their trouble with pleasure on the day of their downfall, or put your hands on their goods on the day of their downfall.
Oba1:14 And do not take your place at the cross-roads, cutting off those of his people who get away; and do not give up to their haters those who are still there in the day of trouble.
Oba1:16 For as you have been drinking on my holy mountain, so will all the nations go on drinking without end; they will go on drinking and the wine will go down their throats, and they will be as if they had never been.
Jon1:2 Up! go to Nineveh, that great town, and let your voice come to it; for their evil-doing has come up before me.
Jon1:5 Then the sailors were full of fear, every man crying to his god; and the goods in the ship were dropped out into the sea to make the weight less. But Jonah had gone down into the inmost part of the ship where he was stretched out in a deep sleep.
Jon1:6 And the ship's captain came to him and said to him, What are you doing sleeping? Up! say a prayer to your God, if by chance God will give a thought to us, so that we may not come to destruction.
Jon1:7 And they said to one another, Come, let us put this to the decision of chance and see on whose account this evil has come on us. So they did so, and Jonah was seen to be the man.
Jon1:8 Then they said to him, Now make clear to us what is your work, and where you come from? what is your country, and who are your people?
Jon1:10 And the men were in great fear, and they said to him, What is this you have done? For the men had knowledge of his flight from the Lord because he had not kept it from them.
Jon1:11 And they said to him, What are we to do to you so that the sea may become calm for us? For the sea was getting rougher and rougher.
Jon1:12 And he said to them, Take me up and put me into the sea, and the sea will become calm for you: for I am certain that because of me this great storm has come on you.
Jon1:13 And the men were working hard to get back to the land, but they were not able to do so: for the sea got rougher and rougher against them.
Jon1:14 So, crying to the Lord, they said, Give ear to our prayer, O Lord, give ear, and do not let destruction overtake us because of this man's life; do not put on us the sin of taking life without cause: for you, O Lord, have done what seemed good to you.
Jon1:15 So they took Jonah up and put him into the sea: and the sea was no longer angry.
Jon2:9 The worshippers of false gods have given up their only hope.
Jon3:9 Who may say that God will not be turned, changing his purpose and turning away from his burning wrath, so that destruction may not overtake us?
Jon3:10 And God saw what they did, how they were turned from their evil way; and God's purpose was changed as to the evil which he said he would do to them, and he did it not.
Mic1:2 Give ear, you peoples, all of you; give attention, O earth and everything in it: let the Lord God be witness against you, the Lord from his holy Temple.
Mic1:11 Be uncovered and go away, you who are living in Shaphir: the one living in Zaanan has not come out of her town; Beth-ezel is taken away from its base, even from its resting-place.
Mic1:16 Let your head be uncovered and your hair cut off in sorrow for the children of your delight: let the hair be pulled from your head like an eagle's; for they have been taken away from you as prisoners.
Mic2:2 They have a desire for fields and take them by force; and for houses and take them away: they are cruel to a man and his family, even to a man and his heritage.
Mic2:3 For this cause the Lord has said, See, against this family I am purposing an evil from which you will not be able to take your necks away, and you will be weighted down by it; for it is an evil time.
Mic2:4 In that day this saying will be said about you, and this song of grief will be made: The heritage of my people is measured out, and there is no one to give it back; those who have made us prisoners have taken our fields from us, and complete destruction has come to us.
Mic2:6 Let not words like these be dropped, they say: Shame and the curse will not come to the family of Jacob!
Mic2:9 The women of my people you have been driving away from their dearly loved children; from their young ones you are taking my glory for ever.
Mic2:10 Up! and go; for this is not your rest: because it has been made unclean, the destruction ordered will come on you.
Mic2:11 If a man came with a false spirit of deceit, saying, I will be a prophet to you of wine and strong drink: he would be the sort of prophet for this people.
Mic2:12 I will certainly make all of you, O Jacob, come together; I will get together the rest of Israel; I will put them together like the sheep in their circle: like a flock in their green field; they will be full of the noise of men.
Mic2:13 The opener of the way will go up before them: forcing their way out they will go on to the doorway and out through it: their king will go on before them, and the Lord at their head.
Mic3:1 And I said, Give ear, now, you heads of Jacob and rulers of the people of Israel: is it not for you to have knowledge of what is right?
Mic3:2 You who are haters of good and lovers of evil, pulling off their skin from them and their flesh from their bones;
Mic3:3 Like meat they take the flesh of my people for their food, skinning them and crushing their bones, yes, cutting them up as if for the pot, like flesh inside the cooking-pot.
Mic3:4 Then they will be crying to the Lord for help, but he will not give them an answer: yes, he will keep his face veiled from them at that time, because their acts have been evil.
Mic3:5 This is what the Lord has said about the prophets by whom my people have been turned from the right way; who, biting with their teeth, say, Peace; and if anyone puts nothing in their mouths they make ready for war against him.
Mic3:6 For this cause it will be night for you, without a vision; and it will be dark for you, without knowledge of the future; the sun will go down over the prophets, and the day will be black over them.
Mic3:7 And the seers will be shamed, and the readers of the future will be at a loss, all of them covering their lips; for there is no answer from God.
Mic3:9 Then give ear to this, you heads of the children of Jacob, you rulers of the children of Israel, hating what is right, twisting what is straight.
Mic3:11 Its heads take rewards for judging, and the priests take payment for teaching, and the prophets get silver for reading the future: but still, supporting themselves on the Lord, they say, Is not the Lord among us? no evil will overtake us.
Mic3:12 For this reason, Zion will be ploughed like a field because of you, and Jerusalem will become a mass of broken walls, and the mountain of the house like a high place in the woods.
Mic4:2 And a number of nations will go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will give us knowledge of his ways and we will be guided by his word: for from Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
Mic4:3 And he will be judge between great peoples, and strong nations far away will be ruled by his decisions; their swords will be hammered into plough-blades and their spears into vine-knives: nations will no longer be lifting up their swords against one another, and knowledge of war will have gone for ever.
Mic4:5 For all the peoples will be walking, every one in the name of his god, and we will be walking in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.
Mic4:7 And I will make her whose steps were uncertain a small band, and her who was feeble a strong nation: and the Lord will be their King in Mount Zion from now and for ever.
Mic4:11 And now a number of nations have come together against you, and they say, Let her be made unclean and let our eyes see the fate of Zion.
Mic4:12 But they have no knowledge of the thoughts of the Lord, their minds are not able to see his purpose: for he has got them together like stems of grain to the crushing-floor.
Mic4:13 Up! and let the grain be crushed, O daughter of Zion, for I will make your horn iron and your feet brass, and a number of peoples will be broken by you, and you will give up their increase to the Lord and their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
Mic4:14 Now you will give yourselves deep wounds for grief; they will put up a wall round us: they will give the judge of Israel a blow on the face with a rod.
Mic5:3 For this cause he will give them up till the time when she who is with child has given birth: then the rest of his brothers will come back to the children of Israel.
Mic5:4 And he will take his place and give food to his flock in the strength of the Lord, in the glory of the name of the Lord his God; and their resting-place will be safe: for now he will be great to the ends of the earth.
Mic5:5 And this will be our peace: when the Assyrian comes into our country and his feet are in our land, then we will put up against him seven keepers of the flocks and eight chiefs among men.
Mic6:4 For I took you up out of the land of Egypt and made you free from the prison-house; I sent before you Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
Mic6:8 He has made clear to you, O man, what is good; and what is desired from you by the Lord; only doing what is right, and loving mercy, and walking without pride before your God.
Mic6:15 You will put in seed, but you will not get in the grain; you will be crushing olives, but your bodies will not be rubbed with the oil; and you will get in the grapes, but you will have no wine.
Mic7:2 The good man is gone from the earth, there is no one upright among men: they are all waiting secretly for blood, every man is going after his brother with a net.
Mic7:3 Their hands are made ready to do evil; the ruler makes requests for money, and the judge is looking for a reward; and the great man gives decisions at his pleasure, and the right is twisted.
Mic7:12 In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the towns of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea and from mountain to mountain.
Mic7:13 But the land will become a waste because of its people, as the fruit of their works.
Mic7:14 Keep your people safe with your rod, the flock of your heritage, living by themselves in the woods in the middle of Carmel: let them get their food in Bashan and Gilead as in the past.
Mic7:15 As in the days when you came out from the land of Egypt, let us see things of wonder.
Mic7:16 The nations will see and be shamed because of all their strength; they will put their hands on their mouths, their ears will be stopped.
Mic7:18 Who is a God like you, offering forgiveness for evil-doing and overlooking the sins of the rest of his heritage? he does not keep his wrath for ever, because his delight is in mercy.
Mic7:19 He will again have pity on us; he will put our sins under his feet: and you will send all our sins down into the heart of the sea.
Nah1:9 What are you designing against the Lord? he will put an end to it: his haters will not come up again a second time.
Nah1:10 For though they are like twisted thorns, and are overcome as with drink, they will come to destruction like stems of grass fully dry.
Nah2:3 For the Lord will make good the vine of Jacob, as well as the vine of Israel: for the wasters have made them waste and sent destruction on the branches of their vine.
Nah2:6 He takes the record of his great men: they go falling on their way; they go quickly to the wall, the cover is made ready.
Nah2:10 Take silver, take gold; for there is no end to the store; take for yourselves a weight of things to be desired.
Nah3:8 Are you better than No-amon, seated on the Nile streams, with waters all round her; whose wall was the sea and her earthwork the waters?
Hab1:5 See among the nations, and take note, and be full of wonder: for in your days I am doing a work in which you will have no belief, even if news of it is given to you.
Hab1:8 And their horses are quicker than leopards and their horsemen more cruel than evening wolves; they come from far away, like an eagle in flight rushing on its food.
Hab1:10 He makes little of kings, rulers are a sport to him; all the strong places are to be laughed at; for he makes earthworks and takes them.
Hab1:12 Are you not eternal, O Lord my God, my Holy One? for you there is no death. O Lord, he has been ordered by you for our punishment; and by you, O Rock, he has been marked out to put us right.
Hab1:15 He takes them all up with his hook, he takes them in his net, getting them together in his fishing-net: for which cause he is glad and full of joy.
Hab2:7 Will not your creditors suddenly be moved against you, and your troublers get up from their sleep, and you will be to them like goods taken in war?
Hab3:14 You have put your spears through his head, his horsemen were sent in flight like dry stems; they had joy in driving away the poor, in making a meal of them secretly.
Zep1:1 The word of the Lord which came to Zephaniah, the son of Cushi, the son of Gedaliah, the son of Amariah, the son of Hezekiah, in the days of Josiah, the son of Amon, king of Judah.
Zep1:11 Because of the downfall of all the people of Canaan: all those who were weighted down with silver have been cut off.
Zep1:12 And it will come about at that time, that I will go searching through Jerusalem with lights; and I will send punishment on the men who have become like wine stored over-long, who say to themselves, The Lord will not do good and will not do evil.
Zep1:13 And their wealth will be violently taken away, and their houses will be made waste: they will go on building houses and never living in them, and planting vine-gardens but not drinking the wine from them.
Zep1:17 And I will send trouble on men so that they will go about like the blind, because they have done evil against the Lord: and their blood will be drained out like dust, and their strength like waste.
Zep1:18 Even their silver and their gold will not be able to keep them safe in the day of the Lord's wrath; but all the land will be burned up in the fire of his bitter wrath: for he will put an end, even suddenly, to all who are living in the land.
Zep2:1 Come together, make everyone come together, O nation without shame;
Zep2:3 Make search for the Lord, all you quiet ones of the earth, who have done what is right in his eyes; make search for righteousness and a quiet heart: it may be that you will be safely covered in the day of the Lord's wrath.
Zep2:7 The land by the sea will be for the rest of the children of Judah; by the sea they will give their flocks food: in the houses of Ashkelon they will take their rest in the evening; for the Lord their God will take them in hand and their fate will be changed.
Zep2:8 My ears have been open to the bitter words of Moab and the words of shame of the children of Ammon, which they have said against my people, lifting themselves up against the limit of their land.
Zep2:9 For this cause, by my life, says the Lord of armies, the God of Israel, truly Moab will become like Sodom and the children of Ammon like Gomorrah, given up to waste plants and salt pools and unpeopled for ever: the rest of my people will take their property, the overflow of my nation will take their heritage.
Zep2:10 This will be their fate because of their pride, because they have said evil, lifting themselves up against the people of the Lord of armies.
Zep2:11 The Lord will let himself be seen by them: for he will make all the gods of the earth feeble; and men will go down before him in worship, everyone from his place, even all the sea-lands of the nations.
Zep2:12 And you Ethiopians will be put to death by my sword.
Zep3:6 I have had the nations cut off, their towers are broken down; I have made their streets a waste so that no one goes through them: destruction has overtaken their towns, so that there is no man living in them.
Zep3:7 I said, Certainly you will go in fear of me, and come under my training, so that whatever I may send on her may not be cut off before her eyes: but they got up early and made all their works evil.
Zep3:8 For this reason, go on waiting for me, says the Lord, till the day when I come up as a witness: for my purpose is to send for the nations and to get the kingdoms together, so that I may let loose on them my passion, even all my burning wrath: for all the earth will be burned up in the fire of my bitter passion.
Zep3:12 But I will still have among you a quiet and poor people, and they will put their faith in the name of the Lord.
Zep3:18 I will take away your troubles, lifting up your shame from off you.
Zep3:19 See, at that time I will put an end to all who have been troubling you: I will give salvation to her whose steps are uncertain, and get together her who has been sent in flight; and I will make them a cause of praise and an honoured name in all the earth, when I let their fate be changed.
Zep3:20 At that time I will make you come in, at that time I will get you together: for I will make you a name and a praise among all the peoples of the earth when I let your fate be changed before your eyes, says the Lord.
Hag1:4 Is it a time for you to be living in roofed houses while this house is a waste?
Hag1:5 For this cause the Lord of armies has said, Give thought to your ways.
Hag1:6 Much has been planted, but little got in; you take food, but have not enough; you take drink, but are not full; you are clothed, but no one is warm; and he who gets payment for his work, gets it to put it into a bag full of holes.
Hag1:7 This is what the Lord of armies has said: Give thought to your ways.
Hag1:8 Go up to the hills and get wood and put up the house; and I will take pleasure in it and be honoured, says the Lord.
Hag1:9 You were looking for much, and it came to little; and when you got it into your house, I took it away with a breath. Why? says the Lord of armies. Because of my house which is a waste, while every man takes care of the house which is his.
Hag1:10 For this cause the heaven over you is kept from giving dew, and the earth from giving her fruit.
Hag1:12 Then Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, and Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and all the rest of the people, gave ear to the voice of the Lord their God and to the words of Haggai the prophet, because the Lord their God had sent him, and the people were in fear before the Lord.
Hag1:13 Then Haggai, whom the Lord had sent to give his words to the people, said, I am with you, says the Lord.
Hag1:14 And the spirit of Zerubbabel, the son of Shealtiel, ruler of Judah, was moved by the Lord, as was the spirit of Joshua, the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and the spirit of all the rest of the people; and they came and did work in the house of the Lord of armies, their God.
Hag2:3 Who is there still among you who saw this house in its first glory? and how do you see it now? is it not in your eyes as nothing?
Hag2:4 But now be strong, O Zerubbabel, says the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest; and be strong, all you people of the land, says the Lord, and get to work: for I am with you, says the Lord of armies:
Hag2:5 The agreement which I made with you when you came out of Egypt, and my spirit, are with you still; have no fear.
Hag2:14 Then Haggai said, So is this people and so is this nation before me, says the Lord; and so is every work of their hands; and the offering they give there is unclean.
Hag2:15 And now, give thought, looking back from this day to the time before one stone was put on another in the Temple of the Lord:
Hag2:17 And I sent burning and wasting and a rain of ice-drops on all the works of your hands; but still you were not turned to me, says the Lord.
Hag2:18 And now, give thought; looking on from this day, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, from the time when the base of the Lord's house was put in its place, give thought to it.
Hag2:19 Is the seed still in the store-house? have the vine and the fig-tree, the pomegranate and the olive-tree, still not given their fruit? from this day I will send my blessing on you.
Zec1:2 The Lord has been very angry with your fathers:
Zec1:3 And you are to say to them, These are the words of the Lord of armies: Come back to me, says the Lord of armies, and I will come back to you.
Zec1:4 Be not like your fathers, to whom the voice of the earlier prophets came, saying, Be turned now from your evil ways and from your evil doings: but they did not give ear to me or take note, says the Lord.
Zec1:5 Your fathers, where are they? and the prophets, do they go on living for ever?
Zec1:6 But my words and my orders, which I gave to my servants the prophets, have they not overtaken your fathers? and turning back they said, As it was the purpose of the Lord of armies to do to us, in reward for our ways and our doings, so has he done.
Zec1:11 And the man who was between the mountains, answering, said to the angel of the Lord, We have gone up and down through the earth, and all the earth is quiet and at rest.
Zec1:15 And I am very angry with the nations who are living untroubled: for when I was only a little angry, they made the evil worse.
Zec2:4 Then I said, What have these come to do? And he said, These are the horns which sent Judah in flight, and kept him from lifting up his head: but these men have come to send fear on them and to put down the nations who are lifting up their horns against the land of Judah to send it in flight.
Zec2:10 Ho, ho! go in flight from the land of the north, says the Lord: for I have sent you far and wide to the four winds of heaven, says the Lord.
Zec2:12 For this is what the Lord of armies has said: In the way of glory he has sent me to the nations which have taken your goods: for anyone touching you is touching what is most dear to him.
Zec2:13 For at the shaking of my hand over them, their goods will be taken by those who were their servants: and you will see that the Lord of armies has sent me.
Zec3:4 And he made answer and said to those who were there before him, Take the unclean robes off him, and let him be clothed in clean robes;
Zec3:5 And let them put a clean head-dress on his head. So they put a clean head-dress on his head, clothing him with clean robes: and to him he said, See, I have taken your sin away from you.
Zec3:8 Give ear now, O Joshua, the high priest, you and your friends who are seated before you; for these are men who are a sign: for see, I will let my servant the Branch be seen.
Zec3:10 In that day, says the Lord of armies, you will be one another's guests under the vine and under the fig-tree.
Zec4:9 The hands of Zerubbabel have put the base of this house in place, and his hands will make it complete; and it will be clear to you that the Lord of armies has sent me to you.
Zec5:9 And lifting up my eyes I saw two women coming out, and the wind was in their wings; and they had wings like the wings of a stork: and they took the ephah, lifting it up between earth and heaven.
Zec5:10 And I said to the angel who was talking to me, Where are they taking the ephah?
Zec6:7 And the red ones go to the east; and they made request that they might go up and down through the earth: and he said, Go up and down through the earth. So they went up and down through the earth.
Zec6:15 And those who are far away will come and be builders in the Temple of the Lord, and it will be clear to you that the Lord of armies has sent me to you.
Zec7:2 Now they of Beth-el had sent Sharezer and Regem-melech to make a request for grace from the Lord,
Zec7:5 Say to all the people of the land and to the priests, When you went without food and gave yourselves to grief in the fifth and the seventh months for these seventy years, did you ever do it because of me?
Zec7:6 And when you are feasting and drinking, are you not doing it only for yourselves?
Zec7:7 Are not these the words which the Lord said to you by the earlier prophets, when Jerusalem was full of people and wealth, and the towns round about her and the South and the Lowland were peopled?
Zec7:9 This is what the Lord of armies has said: Let your judging be upright and done in good faith, let every man have mercy and pity for his brother:
Zec7:11 But they would not give attention, turning their backs and stopping their ears from hearing;
Zec7:13 And it came about that as they would not give ear to his voice, so I would not give ear to their voice, says the Lord of armies:
Zec7:14 But with a storm-wind I sent them in flight among all the nations of whom they had no knowledge. So the land was waste after them, so that no man went through or came back: for they had made waste the desired land.
Zec8:8 And I will make them come and be living in Jerusalem and they will be to me a people and I will be to them a God, in good faith and in righteousness.
Zec8:9 This is what the Lord of armies has said: Let your hands be strong, you who are now hearing these words from the mouths of the prophets, that is to say, in the days when the base of the house of the Lord of armies has been put in place for the building of the house, that is the Temple.
Zec8:12 For I will let the seed of peace be planted; the vine will give her fruit and the land will give her increase and the heavens will give their dew; and I will give to the rest of this people all these things for their heritage.
Zec8:13 And it will come about that, as you were a curse among the nations, O children of Judah and children of Israel, so I will give you salvation and you will be a blessing: have no fear and let your hands be strong.
Zec8:14 For this is what the Lord of armies has said: As it was my purpose to do evil to you when your fathers made me angry, says the Lord of armies, and my purpose was not changed:
Zec8:15 So in these days it is again my purpose to do good to Jerusalem and to the children of Judah: have no fear.
Zec8:16 These are the things which you are to do: Let every man say what is true to his neighbour; and let your judging give peace in your towns.
Zec8:19 This is what the Lord of armies has said: The times of going without food in the fourth month and in the fifth and the seventh and the tenth months, will be for the people of Judah times of joy and happy meetings; so be lovers of good faith and of peace.
Zec8:21 And the people of one town go to another and say, Let us certainly go with a request for grace from the Lord, and to give worship to the Lord of armies, then I will go with you.
Zec8:23 This is what the Lord of armies has said: In those days, ten men from all the languages of the nations will put out their hands and take a grip of the skirt of him who is a Jew, saying, We will go with you, for it has come to our ears that God is with you.
Zec9:7 And I will take away his blood from his mouth, and his disgusting things from between his teeth; and some of his people will be kept for our God: and he will be as a family in Judah, and Ekron as one living in Jerusalem.
Zec9:12 And they will come back to you, O daughter of Zion, as prisoners of hope: today I say to you that I will give you back twice as much;
Zec9:14 And the Lord will be seen over them, and his arrow will go out like the thunder-flame: and the Lord God, sounding the war-horn, will go in the storm-winds of the South.
Zec9:15 The Lord of armies will be a cover for them; and they will overcome, crushing under foot the armed men; they will take their blood for drink like wine: they will be full like the sides of the altar.
Zec9:16 And the Lord their God will be their saviour in that day, giving them food like the flock of his people: for they will be like the jewels of a crown shining over his land.
Zec10:1 Make your request to the Lord for rain in the time of the spring rains, even to the Lord who makes the thunder-flames; and he will give them showers of rain, to every man grass in the field.
Zec10:2 For the images have said what is not true, and the readers of signs have seen deceit; they have given accounts of false dreams, they give comfort to no purpose: so they go out of the way like sheep, they are troubled because they have no keeper.
Zec10:3 My wrath is burning against the keepers of the flock, and I will send punishment on the he-goats: for the Lord of armies takes care of his flock, the people of Judah, and will make them like the horse of his pride in the fight.
Zec10:5 Together they will be like men of war, crushing down their haters into the earth of the streets in the fight; they will make war because the Lord is with them: and the horsemen will be shamed.
Zec10:6 And I will make the children of Judah strong, and I will be the saviour of the children of Joseph, and I will make them come back again, for I have had mercy on them: they will be as if I had not given them up: for I am the Lord their God and I will give them an answer.
Zec10:7 And Ephraim will be like a man of war, and their hearts will be glad as with wine; and their children will see it with joy; their hearts will be glad in the Lord.
Zec10:8 With the sound of the pipe I will get them together; for I have given the price to make them free: and they will be increased as they were increased.
Zec10:9 Though I had them planted among the peoples, they will keep me in mind in far countries: and they will take care of their children and will come back.
Zec10:10 And I will make them come back out of the land of Egypt, and will get them together out of Assyria; and I will take them into the land of Gilead, and it will not be wide enough for them.
Zec10:12 And their strength will be in the Lord; and their pride will be in his name, says the Lord.
Zec11:3 The sound of the crying of the keepers of the flock! for their glory is made waste: the sound of the loud crying of the young lions! for the pride of Jordan is made waste.
Zec11:5 Whose owners put them to death and have no sense of sin; and those who get a price for them say, May the Lord be praised for I have much wealth: and the keepers of the flock have no pity for them.
Zec11:6 For I will have no more pity for the people of the land, says the Lord; but I will give up everyone into his neighbour's hand and into the hand of his king: and they will make the land waste, and I will not keep them safe from their hands.
Zec11:8 And in one month I put an end to the three keepers of the flock; for my soul was tired of them, and their souls were disgusted with me.
Zec11:9 And I said, I will not take care of you: If death comes to any, let death be its fate; if any is cut off, let it be cut off; and let the rest take one another's flesh for food.
Zec11:12 And I said to them, If it seems good to you, give me my payment; and if not, do not give it. So they gave me my payment by weight, thirty shekels of silver.
Zec12:5 And the families of Judah will say in their hearts, The people of Jerusalem have their strength in the Lord of armies, their God.
Zec12:6 In that day I will make the families of Judah like a pot with fire in it among trees, and like a flaming stick among cut grain; they will send destruction on all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left: and Jerusalem will be living again in the place which is hers, that is, in Jerusalem.
Zec12:8 In that day the Lord will be a cover over the people of Jerusalem; and he who is feeble among them in that day will be as strong as David, and the family of David will be as God, as the angel of the Lord before them.
Zec12:10 And I will send down on the family of David and on the people of Jerusalem the spirit of grace and of prayer; and their eyes will be turned to the one who was wounded by their hands: and they will be weeping for him as for an only son, and their grief for him will be bitter, like the grief of one sorrowing for his oldest son.
Zec13:9 And I will make the third part go through the fire, cleaning them as silver is made clean, and testing them as gold is tested: and they will make their prayer to me and I will give them an answer: I will say, It is my people; and they will say, The Lord is my God.
Zec14:5 And the valley will be stopped ... and you will go in flight as you went in flight from the earth-shock in the days of Uzziah, king of Judah: and the Lord my God will come, and all his holy ones with him.
Zec14:12 And this will be the disease which the Lord will send on all the peoples which have been warring against Jerusalem: their flesh will be wasted away while they are on their feet, their eyes will be wasted in their heads and their tongues in their mouths.
Zec14:13 And it will be on that day that a great fear will be sent among them from the Lord; and everyone will take his neighbour's hand, and every man's hand will be lifted against his neighbour's.
Zec14:17 And it will be that if any one of all the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to give worship to the King, the Lord of armies, on them there will be no rain.
Zec14:18 And if the family of Egypt does not go up or come there, they will be attacked by the disease which the Lord will send on the nations:
Mal1:2 You have been loved by me, says the Lord. But you say, Where was your love for us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? says the Lord: but Jacob was loved by me,
Mal1:4 Though Edom says, We are crushed down but we will come back, building up the waste places; this is what the Lord of armies has said: They may put up buildings, but I will have them pulled down; and they will be named The land of evil-doing, and The people against whom the Lord keeps his wrath for ever.
Mal1:5 And your eyes will see it; and you will say, The Lord is great even outside the limits of Israel.
Mal1:6 A son gives honour to his father, and a servant has fear of his master: if then I am a father, where is my honour? and if I am a master, where is the fear of me? says the Lord of armies to you, O priests, who give no value to my name. And you say, How have we not given value to your name?
Mal1:7 You put unclean bread on my altar. And you say, How have we made it unclean? By your saying, The table of the Lord is of no value.
Mal1:8 And when you give what is blind for an offering, it is no evil! and when you give what is damaged and ill, it is no evil! Give it now to your ruler; will he be pleased with you, or will you have his approval? says the Lord of armies.
Mal1:9 And now, make request for the grace of God so that he may have mercy on us: this has been your doing: will he give his approval to any of you? says the Lord of armies.
Mal1:10 If only there was one among you who would see that the doors were shut, so that you might not put a light to the fire on my altar for nothing! I have no pleasure in you, says the Lord of armies, and I will not take an offering from your hands.
Mal1:12 But you make it unholy by saying, The Lord's table has become unclean, and his food is of no value.
Mal1:13 And you say, See, what a weariness it is! and you let out your breath at it, says the Lord of armies; and you have given what has been cut about by beasts, and what is damaged in its feet and ill; this is the offering you give: will this be pleasing to me from your hands? says the Lord.
Mal2:1 And now, O you priests, this order is for you.
Mal2:2 If you will not give ear and take it to heart, to give glory to my name, says the Lord of armies, then I will send the curse on you and will put a curse on your blessing: truly, even now I have put a curse on it, because you do not take it to heart.
Mal2:3 See, I will have your arm cut off, and will put waste on your faces, even the waste from your feasts; and you will be taken away with it.
Mal2:4 And you will be certain that I have sent this order to you, so that it might be my agreement with Levi, says the Lord of armies.
Mal2:8 But you are turned out of the way; you have made the law hard for numbers of people; you have made the agreement of Levi of no value, says the Lord of armies.
Mal2:9 And so I have taken away your honour and made you low before all the people, even as you have not kept my ways, and have given no thought to me in using the law.
Mal2:10 Have we not all one father? has not one God made us? why are we, every one of us, acting falsely to his brother, putting shame on the agreement of our fathers?
Mal2:13 And this again you do: covering the altar of the Lord with weeping and with grief, so that he gives no more thought to the offering, and does not take it with pleasure from your hand.
Mal2:14 But you say, For what reason? Because the Lord has been a witness between you and the wife of your early years, to whom you have been untrue, though she is your friend and the wife to whom you have given your word.
Mal2:15 ... So give thought to your spirit, and let no one be false to the wife of his early years.
Mal2:16 For I am against the putting away of a wife, says the Lord, the God of Israel, and against him who is clothed with violent acts, says the Lord of armies: so give thought to your spirit and do not be false in your acts.
Mal2:17 You have made the Lord tired with your words. And still you say, How have we made him tired? By your saying, Everyone who does evil is good in the eyes of the Lord, and he has delight in them; or, Where is God the judge?
Mal3:1 See, I am sending my servant, and he will make ready the way before me; and the Lord, whom you are looking for, will suddenly come to his Temple; and the angel of the agreement, in whom you have delight, see, he is coming, says the Lord of armies.
Mal3:3 He will take his seat, testing and cleaning the sons of Levi, burning away the evil from them as from gold and silver; so that they may make offerings to the Lord in righteousness.
Mal3:5 And I will come near to you for judging; I will quickly be a witness against the wonder-workers, against those who have been untrue in married life, against those who take false oaths; against those who keep back from the servant his payment, and who are hard on the widow and the child without a father, who do not give his rights to the man from a strange country, and have no fear of me, says the Lord of armies.
Mal3:6 For I am the Lord, I am unchanged; and so you, O sons of Jacob, have not been cut off.
Mal3:7 From the days of your fathers you have been turned away from my rules and have not kept them. Come back to me, and I will come back to you, says the Lord of armies. But you say, How are we to come back?
Mal3:8 Will a man keep back from God what is right? But you have kept back what is mine. But you say, What have we kept back from you? Tenths and offerings.
Mal3:9 You are cursed with a curse; for you have kept back from me what is mine, even all this nation.
Mal3:10 Let your tenths come into the store-house so that there may be food in my house, and put me to the test by doing so, says the Lord of armies, and see if I do not make the windows of heaven open and send down such a blessing on you that there is no room for it.
Mal3:11 And on your account I will keep back the locusts from wasting the fruits of your land; and the fruit of your vine will not be dropped on the field before its time, says the Lord of armies
Mal3:12 And you will be named happy by all nations: for you will be a land of delight, says the Lord of armies.
Mal3:13 Your words have been strong against me, says the Lord. And still you say, What have we said against you?
Mal3:14 You have said, It is no use worshipping God: what profit have we had from keeping his orders, and going in clothing of sorrow before the Lord of armies?
Mal3:15 And now to us the men of pride seem happy; yes, the evil-doers are doing well; they put God to the test and are safe.
Mal3:17 And they will be mine, says the Lord, in the day when I make them my special property; and I will have mercy on them as a man has mercy on his son who is his servant.
Mal3:18 Then you will again see how the upright man is different from the sinner, and the servant of God from him who is not.
Mal4:2 But to you who give worship to my name, the sun of righteousness will come up with new life in its wings; and you will go out, playing like young oxen full of food.
Mal4:3 And the evil-doers will be crushed under you, they will be dust under your feet, in the day when I do my work, says the Lord of armies.
Mal4:4 Keep in mind the law of Moses, my servant, which I gave him in Horeb for all Israel, even the rules and the decisions.
Mal4:5 See, I am sending you Elijah the prophet before the day of the Lord comes, that great day, greatly to be feared.
Mat1:10 And the son of Hezekiah was Manasseh; and the son of Manasseh was Amon; and the son of Amon was Josiah;
Mat1:23 See, the virgin will be with child, and will give birth to a son, and they will give him the name Immanuel, that is, God with us.
Mat2:2 Saying, Where is the King of the Jews whose birth has now taken place? We have seen his star in the east and have come to give him worship.
Mat2:4 And he got together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, questioning them as to where the birth-place of the Christ would be.
Mat2:5 And they said to him, In Beth-lehem of Judaea; for so it is said in the writings of the prophet,
Mat2:8 And he sent them to Beth-lehem and said, Go and make certain where the young child is; and when you have seen him, let me have news of it, so that I may come and give him worship.
Mat2:9 And after hearing the king, they went on their way; and the star which they saw in the east went before them, till it came to rest over the place where the young child was.
Mat2:10 And when they saw the star they were full of joy.
Mat2:13 And when they had gone, an angel of the Lord came to Joseph in a dream, saying, Get up and take the young child and his mother, and go into Egypt, and do not go from there till I give you word; for Herod will be searching for the young child to put him to death.
Mat2:18 In Ramah there was a sound of weeping and great sorrow, Rachel weeping for her children, and she would not be comforted for their loss.
Mat3:2 Saying, Let your hearts be turned from sin; for the kingdom of heaven is near.
Mat3:6 And they were given baptism by him in the river Jordan, saying openly that they had done wrong.
Mat3:7 But when he saw a number of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, Offspring of snakes, at whose word are you going in flight from the wrath to come?
Mat3:8 Let your change of heart be seen in your works:
Mat3:9 And say not to yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; because I say to you that God is able from these stones to make children for Abraham.
Mat3:11 Truly, I give baptism with water to those of you whose hearts are changed; but he who comes after me is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to take up: he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit and with fire:
Mat3:15 But Jesus made answer, saying to him, Let it be so now: because so it is right for us to make righteousness complete. Then he gave him baptism.
Mat4:16 The people who were in the dark saw a great light, and to those in the land of the shade of death did the dawn come up.
Mat4:17 From that time Jesus went about preaching and saying, Let your hearts be turned from sin, for the kingdom of heaven is near.
Mat4:18 And when he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon, whose other name was Peter, and Andrew, his brother, who were putting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen.
Mat4:19 And he said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
Mat4:20 And straight away they let go the nets and went after him.
Mat4:21 And going on from there he saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and John, his brother, in the boat with their father, stitching up their nets; and he said, Come.
Mat4:22 And they went straight from the boat and their father and came after him.
Mat4:24 And news of him went out through all Syria; and they took to him all who were ill with different diseases and pains, those having evil spirits and those who were off their heads, and those who had no power of moving. And he made them well.
Mat5:2 And with these words he gave them teaching, saying,
Mat5:3 Happy are the poor in spirit: for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.
Mat5:4 Happy are those who are sad: for they will be comforted.
Mat5:5 Happy are the gentle: for the earth will be their heritage.
Mat5:6 Happy are those whose heart's desire is for righteousness: for they will have their desire.
Mat5:7 Happy are those who have mercy: for they will be given mercy.
Mat5:8 Happy are the clean in heart: for they will see God.
Mat5:9 Happy are the peacemakers: for they will be named sons of God.
Mat5:10 Happy are those who are attacked on account of righteousness: for the kingdom of heaven will be theirs.
Mat5:11 Happy are you when men give you a bad name, and are cruel to you, and say all evil things against you falsely, because of me.
Mat5:12 Be glad and full of joy; for great is your reward in heaven: for so were the prophets attacked who were before you.
Mat5:13 You are the salt of the earth; but if its taste goes from the salt, how will you make it salt again? it is then good for nothing but to be put out and crushed under foot by men.
Mat5:14 You are the light of the world. A town put on a hill may be seen by all.
Mat5:16 Even so let your light be shining before men, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.
Mat5:18 Truly I say to you, Till heaven and earth come to an end, not the smallest letter or part of a letter will in any way be taken from the law, till all things are done.
Mat5:20 For I say to you, If your righteousness is not greater than the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never go into the kingdom of heaven.
Mat5:21 You have knowledge that it was said in old times, You may not put to death; and, Whoever puts to death will be in danger of being judged:
Mat5:22 But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be in danger of being judged; and he who says to his brother, Raca, will be in danger from the Sanhedrin; and whoever says, You foolish one, will be in danger of the hell of fire.
Mat5:27 You have knowledge that it was said, You may not have connection with another man's wife:
Mat5:28 But I say to you that everyone whose eyes are turned on a woman with desire has had connection with her in his heart.
Mat5:32 But I say to you that everyone who puts away his wife for any other cause but the loss of her virtue, makes her false to her husband; and whoever takes her as his wife after she is put away, is no true husband to her.
Mat5:33 Again, you have knowledge that it was said in old times, Do not take false oaths, but give effect to your oaths to the Lord:
Mat5:34 But I say to you, Take no oaths at all: not by the heaven, because it is the seat of God;
Mat5:37 But let your words be simply, Yes or No: and whatever is more than these is of the Evil One.
Mat5:38 You have knowledge that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
Mat5:39 But I say to you, Do not make use of force against an evil man; but to him who gives you a blow on the right side of your face let the left be turned.
Mat5:43 You have knowledge that it was said, Have love for your neighbour, and hate for him who is against you:
Mat5:44 But I say to you, Have love for those who are against you, and make prayer for those who are cruel to you;
Mat5:45 So that you may be the sons of your Father in heaven; for his sun gives light to the evil and to the good, and he sends rain on the upright man and on the sinner.
Mat5:46 For if you have love for those who have love for you, what credit is it to you? do not the tax-farmers the same?
Mat5:47 And if you say, Good day, to your brothers only, what do you do more than others? do not even the Gentiles the same?
Mat5:48 Be then complete in righteousness, even as your Father in heaven is complete.
Mat6:1 Take care not to do your good works before men, to be seen by them; or you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.
Mat6:2 When then you give money to the poor, do not make a noise about it, as the false-hearted men do in the Synagogues and in the streets, so that they may have glory from men. Truly, I say to you, They have their reward.
Mat6:5 And when you make your prayers, be not like the false-hearted men, who take pleasure in getting up and saying their prayers in the Synagogues and at the street turnings so that they may be seen by men. Truly I say to you, They have their reward.
Mat6:7 And in your prayer do not make use of the same words again and again, as the Gentiles do: for they have the idea that God will give attention to them because of the number of their words.
Mat6:8 So be not like them; because your Father has knowledge of your needs even before you make your requests to him.
Mat6:9 Let this then be your prayer: Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.
Mat6:11 Give us this day bread for our needs.
Mat6:12 And make us free of our debts, as we have made those free who are in debt to us.
Mat6:13 And let us not be put to the test, but keep us safe from the Evil One.
Mat6:14 For if you let men have forgiveness for their sins, you will have forgiveness from your Father in heaven.
Mat6:15 But if you do not let men have forgiveness for their sins, you will not have forgiveness from your Father for your sins.
Mat6:16 And when you go without food, be not sad-faced as the false-hearted are. For they go about with changed looks, so that men may see that they are going without food. Truly I say to you, They have their reward.
Mat6:24 No man is able to be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other, or he will keep to one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.
Mat6:25 So I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about food or drink, or about clothing for your body. Is not life more than food, and the body more than its clothing?
Mat6:26 See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in store-houses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?
Mat6:27 And which of you by taking thought is able to make himself a cubit taller?
Mat6:29 But I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these.
Mat6:30 But if God gives such clothing to the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is put into the oven, will he not much more give you clothing, O you of little faith?
Mat6:32 Because the Gentiles go in search of all these things: for your Father in heaven has knowledge that you have need of all these things:
Mat6:33 But let your first care be for his kingdom and his righteousness; and all these other things will be given to you in addition.
Mat7:1 Be not judges of others, and you will not be judged.
Mat7:2 For as you have been judging, so you will be judged, and with your measure will it be measured to you.
Mat7:6 Do not give that which is holy to the dogs, or put your jewels before pigs, for fear that they will be crushed under foot by the pigs whose attack will then be made against you.
Mat7:7 Make a request, and it will be answered; what you are searching for you will get; give the sign, and the door will be open to you:
Mat7:9 Or which of you, if his son makes a request for bread, will give him a stone?
Mat7:11 If you, then, being evil, are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who make requests to him?
Mat7:12 All those things, then, which you would have men do to you, even so do you to them: because this is the law and the prophets.
Mat7:13 Go in by the narrow door; for wide is the door and open is the way which goes to destruction, and great numbers go in by it.
Mat7:15 Be on the watch for false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inside they are cruel wolves.
Mat7:16 By their fruits you will get knowledge of them. Do men get grapes from thorns or figs from thistles?
Mat7:20 So by their fruits you will get knowledge of them.
Mat7:22 A great number will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, were we not prophets in your name, and did we not by your name send out evil spirits, and by your name do works of power?
Mat7:23 And then will I say to them, I never had knowledge of you: go from me, you workers of evil.
Mat7:29 for he was teaching as one having authority, and not as their scribes.
Mat8:10 And when these words came to the ears of Jesus he was surprised, and said to those who came after him, Truly I say to you, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.
Mat8:11 And I say to you that numbers will come from the east and the west, and will take their seats with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven:
Mat8:17 So that the word of Isaiah the prophet might come true: He himself took our pains and our diseases.
Mat8:22 But Jesus said to him, Come after me; and let the dead take care of their dead.
Mat8:25 And they came to him, and, awaking him, said, Help, Lord; destruction is near.
Mat8:26 And he said to them, Why are you full of fear, O you of little faith? Then he got up and gave orders to the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.
Mat8:29 And they gave a loud cry, saying, What have we to do with you, you Son of God? Have you come here to give us punishment before the time?
Mat8:30 Now there was, some distance away, a great herd of pigs taking their food.
Mat8:31 And the evil spirits made strong prayers to him, saying, If you send us out, let us go into the herd of pigs.
Mat8:34 And all the town came out to Jesus; and seeing him they made request that he would go away from their part of the country.
Mat9:2 And they took to him a man stretched on a bed who had no power of moving; and Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the man who was ill, Son, take heart; you have forgiveness for your sins.
Mat9:4 And Jesus, having knowledge of what was in their minds, said, Why are your thoughts evil?
Mat9:6 But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (then said he to the man who was ill,) Get up, and take up your bed, and go to your house.
Mat9:11 And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, Why does your Master take food with tax-farmers and sinners?
Mat9:13 But go and take to heart the sense of these words, My desire is for mercy, not offerings: for I have come not to get the upright, but sinners.
Mat9:14 Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, Why do we and the Pharisees frequently go without food, but your disciples do not?
Mat9:15 And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of the newly-married man be sad as long as he is with them? But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then will they go without food.
Mat9:24 He said, Make room; for the girl is not dead, but sleeping. And they were laughing at him.
Mat9:27 And when Jesus went on from there, two blind men came after him, crying out, Have mercy on us, you Son of David.
Mat9:28 And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, Have you faith that I am able to do this? They said to him, Yes, Lord.
Mat9:29 Then he put his hand on their eyes, saying, As your faith is, let it be done to you.
Mat9:30 And their eyes were made open. And Jesus said to them sharply, Let no man have knowledge of it.
Mat9:31 But they went out and gave news of him in all that land.
Mat9:32 And while they were going away, there came to him a man without the power of talking, and with an evil spirit.
Mat9:36 But when he saw all the people he was moved with pity for them, because they were troubled and wandering like sheep without a keeper.
Mat9:38 Make prayer, then, to the Lord of the grain-fields, that he may send out workers to get in his grain.
Mat10:1 And he got together his twelve disciples and gave them the power of driving out unclean spirits, and of making well all sorts of disease and pain.
Mat10:5 These twelve Jesus sent out and gave them orders, saying, Do not go among the Gentiles, or into any town of Samaria,
Mat10:8 Make well those who are ill, give life to the dead, make lepers clean, send evil spirits out of men; freely it has been given to you, freely give.
Mat10:11 And into whatever town or small place you go, make search there for someone who is respected, and make his house your resting-place till you go away.
Mat10:13 And if the house is good enough, let your peace come on it: but if not, let your peace come back to you.
Mat10:14 And whoever will not take you in, or give ear to your words, when you go out from that house or that town, put off its dust from your feet.
Mat10:15 Truly I say to you, It will be better for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of God's judging than for that town.
Mat10:16 See, I send you out as sheep among wolves. Be then as wise as snakes, and as gentle as doves.
Mat10:17 But be on the watch against men: for they will give you up to the Sanhedrins, and in their Synagogues they will give you blows;
Mat10:18 And you will come before rulers and kings because of me, for a witness to them and to the Gentiles.
Mat10:19 But when you are given up into their hands, do not be troubled about what to say or how to say it: for in that hour what you are to say will be given to you;
Mat10:20 Because it is not you who say the words, but the Spirit of your Father in you.
Mat10:21 And brother will give up brother to death, and the father his child: and children will go against their fathers and mothers, and put them to death.
Mat10:22 And you will be hated by all men because of my name: but he who is strong to the end will have salvation.
Mat10:23 But when they are cruel to you in one town, go in flight to another: for truly, I say to you, You will not have gone through the towns of Israel before the Son of man comes.
Mat10:26 Have, then, no fear of them: because nothing is covered which will not come to light, or secret which will not be made clear.
Mat10:27 What I say to you in the dark, say in the light: and what comes to your ear secretly, say publicly from the house-tops.
Mat10:28 And have no fear of those who put to death the body, but are not able to put to death the soul. But have fear of him who has power to give soul and body to destruction in hell.
Mat10:29 Are not sparrows two a farthing? and not one of them comes to an end without your Father:
Mat10:30 But the hairs of your head are all numbered.
Mat10:31 Then have no fear; you are of more value than a flock of sparrows.
Mat10:34 Do not have the thought that I have come to send peace on the earth; I came not to send peace but a sword.
Mat10:40 He who gives honour to you gives honour to me; and he who gives honour to me gives honour to him who sent me.
Mat10:42 And whoever gives to one of these little ones a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he will not go without his reward.
Mat11:3 To say to him, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?
Mat11:4 And Jesus, answering, said to them, Go and give news to John of the things which you are seeing and hearing:
Mat11:5 The blind see; those who were not able to, are walking; lepers are made clean; those who were without hearing, now have their ears open; the dead come to life again, and the poor have the good news given to them.
Mat11:7 And when they were going away, Jesus, talking of John, said to all the people, What went you out into the waste land to see? a tall stem moving in the wind?
Mat11:8 But what went you out to see? a man delicately clothed? Those who have fair robes are in kings' houses.
Mat11:9 But why did you go out? to see a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
Mat11:11 Truly I say to you, Among the sons of women there has not been a greater than John the Baptist: but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
Mat11:14 And if you are able to see it, this is Elijah who was to come.
Mat11:17 We made music for you and you did not take part in the dance; we gave cries of sorrow and you made no signs of grief.
Mat11:20 Then he went on to say hard things to the towns where most of his works of power were done, because they had not been turned from their sins.
Mat11:21 Unhappy are you, Chorazin! Unhappy are you, Beth-saida! For if the works of power which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have been turned from their sins in days gone by, clothing themselves in haircloth and putting dust on their heads.
Mat11:22 But I say to you, It will be better for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judging, than for you.
Mat11:24 But I say to you that it will be better for the land of Sodom in the day of judging, than for you.
Mat11:28 Come to me, all you who are troubled and weighted down with care, and I will give you rest.
Mat11:29 Take my yoke on you and become like me, for I am gentle and without pride, and you will have rest for your souls;
Mat12:3 But he said to them, Have you no knowledge of what David did when he had need of food, and those who were with him?
Mat12:5 Or is it not said in the law, how the Sabbath is broken by the priests in the Temple and they do no wrong?
Mat12:6 But I say to you that a greater thing than the Temple is here.
Mat12:7 But if these words had been in your minds, My desire is for mercy and not for offerings, you would not have been judging those who have done no wrong.
Mat12:11 And he said to them, Which of you, having a sheep, if it gets into a hole on the Sabbath day, will not put out a helping hand and get it back?
Mat12:16 Ordering them not to give people word of him:
Mat12:25 And having knowledge of their thoughts he said to them, Every kingdom having division in itself is made waste, and every town or house having division in itself will come to destruction.
Mat12:27 And if I by Beelzebub send evil spirits out of men, by whom do your sons send them out? So let them be your judges.
Mat12:28 But if I by the Spirit of God send out evil spirits, then is the kingdom of God come on you.
Mat12:31 So I say to you, Every sin and every evil word against God will have forgiveness; but for evil words against the Spirit there will be no forgiveness.
Mat12:33 Make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad; for by its fruit you will get knowledge of the tree.
Mat12:34 You offspring of snakes, how are you, being evil, able to say good things? because out of the heart's store come the words of the mouth.
Mat12:36 And I say to you that in the day when they are judged, men will have to give an account of every foolish word they have said.
Mat12:38 Then some of the scribes and Pharisees, hearing this, said to him, Master, we are looking for a sign from you.
Mat12:39 But he, answering, said to them, An evil and false generation is looking for a sign; and no sign will be given to it but the sign of the prophet Jonah:
Mat13:3 And he gave them teaching in the form of a story, saying, A man went out to put seed in the earth;
Mat13:11 And he said to them in answer, To you is given the knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
Mat13:13 For this reason I put things into the form of stories; because they see without seeing, and give ear without hearing, and the sense is not clear to them.
Mat13:14 And for them the words of Isaiah have come true, Though you give ear, you will not get knowledge; and seeing, you will see, but the sense will not be clear to you:
Mat13:15 For the heart of this people has become fat and their ears are slow in hearing and their eyes are shut; for fear that they might see with their eyes and give hearing with their ears and become wise in their hearts and be turned again to me, so that I might make them well.
Mat13:16 But a blessing be on your eyes, because they see; and on your ears, because they are open.
Mat13:17 For truly, I say to you that prophets and upright men had a desire to see the things which you see, and saw them not; and to have knowledge of the words which have come to your ears, and they had it not.
Mat13:18 Give ear, then, to the story of the man who put the seed in the earth.
Mat13:24 And he gave them another story, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a man who put good seed in his field:
Mat13:28 And he said, Someone has done this in hate. And the servants say to him, Is it your pleasure that we go and take them up?
Mat13:31 He put another story before them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and put in his field:
Mat13:33 Another story he gave to them: The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took, and put in three measures of meal, till it was all leavened.
Mat13:34 All these things Jesus said to the people in the form of stories; and without a story he said nothing to them:
Mat13:36 Then he went away from the people, and went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Make clear to us the story of the evil plants in the field.
Mat13:43 Then will the upright be shining as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him give ear.
Mat13:51 Are all these things now clear to you? They say to him, Yes.
Mat13:54 And coming into his country, he gave them teaching in their Synagogue, so that they were greatly surprised and said, Where did this man get this wisdom and these works of power?
Mat13:55 Is not this the woodworker's son? is not his mother named Mary? and his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?
Mat13:56 And his sisters, are they not all with us? from where, then, has he all these things?
Mat13:57 And they were bitter against him. But Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour but in his country and among his family.
Mat13:58 And the works of power which he did there were small in number because they had no faith.
Mat14:5 And he would have put him to death, but for his fear of the people, because in their eyes John was a prophet.
Mat14:14 And he came out and saw a great number of people and he had pity on them, and made well those of them who were ill.
Mat14:15 And when evening had come, the disciples came to him, saying, This place is waste land, and the time is now past; send the people away so that they may go into the towns and get themselves food.
Mat14:16 But Jesus said to them, There is no need for them to go away; give them food yourselves.
Mat14:17 And they say to him, We have here but five cakes of bread and two fishes.
Mat14:20 And they all took of the food and had enough: and they took up twelve baskets full of broken bits which were not used.
Mat14:27 But straight away Jesus said to them, Take heart; it is I, have no fear.
Mat14:32 And when they had got into the boat, the wind went down.
Mat14:34 And when they had gone across, they came to land at Gennesaret.
Mat14:36 With the request that they might only put their hands on the edge of his robe: and all those who did so were made well.
Mat15:2 Why do your disciples go against the teaching of the fathers? for they take food with unwashed hands.
Mat15:3 And in answer he said to them, Why do you, yourselves, go against the word of God on account of the teaching which has been handed down to you?
Mat15:5 But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is given to God;
Mat15:6 There is no need for him to give honour to his father. And you have made the word of God without effect because of your teaching.
Mat15:7 You false ones, well did Isaiah say of you,
Mat15:9 But their worship is to no purpose, while they give as their teaching the rules of men.
Mat15:10 And he got the people together and said to them, Give ear, and let my words be clear to you:
Mat15:14 Let them be: they are blind guides. And if a blind man is guiding a blind man, the two will go falling into a hole together.
Mat15:15 Then Peter said to him, Make the story clear to us.
Mat15:16 And he said, Are you, like them, still without wisdom?
Mat15:23 But he gave her no answer. And his disciples came and said to him, Send her away, for she is crying after us.
Mat15:30 And there came to him great numbers of people having with them those who were broken in body, or blind, or without voice, or wounded, or ill in any way, and a number of others; they put them down at his feet and he made them well:
Mat15:31 So that the people were full of wonder when they saw that those who had no voice were talking, the feeble were made strong, those whose bodies were broken had the power of walking, and the blind were able to see: and they gave glory to the God of Israel.
Mat15:32 And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.
Mat15:33 And the disciples say to him, How may we get enough bread in a waste place, to give food to such a number of people?
Mat15:34 And Jesus says to them, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes, and some small fishes.
Mat16:1 And the Pharisees and Sadducees came and, testing him, made a request to him to give them a sign from heaven.
Mat16:2 But in answer he said to them, At nightfall you say, The weather will be good, for the sky is red.
Mat16:3 And in the morning, The weather will be bad today, for the sky is red and angry. You are able to see the face of heaven, but not the signs of the times.
Mat16:4 An evil and false generation is searching after a sign; and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah. And he went away from them.
Mat16:6 And Jesus said to them, Take care to have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Mat16:7 And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, We took no bread.
Mat16:8 And Jesus, seeing it, said, O you of little faith, why are you reasoning among yourselves, because you have no bread?
Mat16:9 Do you still not see, or keep in mind the five cakes of bread of the five thousand, and the number of baskets you took up?
Mat16:11 How is it that you do not see that I was not talking to you about bread, but about keeping away from the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?
Mat16:12 Then they saw that it was not the leaven of bread which he had in mind, but the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Mat16:14 And they said, Some say, John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
Mat16:15 He says to them, But who do you say that I am?
Mat16:28 Truly I say to you, There are some of those here who will not have a taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.
Mat17:2 And he was changed in form before them; and his face was shining like the sun, and his clothing became white as light.
Mat17:3 And Moses and Elijah came before their eyes, talking with him.
Mat17:4 And Peter made answer and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if you will let me, I will make here three tents, one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
Mat17:5 While he was still talking, a bright cloud came over them: and a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well pleased; give ear to him.
Mat17:7 And Jesus came and put his hand on them and said, Get up and have no fear.
Mat17:8 And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, but Jesus only.
Mat17:9 And when they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus gave them orders, saying, Let no man have word of what you have seen, till the Son of man has come again from the dead.
Mat17:12 But I say to you that Elijah has come, and they had no knowledge of him, but did to him whatever they were pleased to do; the same will the Son of man undergo at their hands.
Mat17:16 And I took him to your disciples, and they were not able to make him well.
Mat17:17 And Jesus, answering, said, O false and foolish generation, how long will I be with you? how long will I put up with you? let him come here to me.
Mat17:19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately, and said, Why were we not able to send it out?
Mat17:20 And he says to them, Because of your little faith: for truly I say to you, If you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, Be moved from this place to that; and it will be moved; and nothing will be impossible to you.
Mat17:22 And while they were going about in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man will be given up into the hands of men;
Mat17:23 And they will put him to death, and the third day he will come again from the dead. And they were very sad.
Mat17:24 And when they had come to Capernaum, those who took the Temple tax came to Peter and said, Does not your master make payment of the Temple tax?
Mat17:27 But, so that we may not be a cause of trouble to them, go to the sea, and let down a hook, and take the first fish which comes up; and in his mouth you will see a bit of money: take that, and give it to them for me and you.
Mat18:2 And he took a little child, and put him in the middle of them,
Mat18:3 And said, Truly, I say to you, If you do not have a change of heart and become like little children, you will not go into the kingdom of heaven.
Mat18:10 Let it not seem to you that one of these little ones is of no value; for I say to you that in heaven their angels see at all times the face of my Father in heaven.
Mat18:12 What would you say now? if a man has a hundred sheep, and one of them has gone wandering away, will he not let the ninety-nine be, and go to the mountains in search of the wandering one?
Mat18:13 And if he comes across it, truly I say to you, he has more joy over it than over the ninety-nine which have not gone out of the way.
Mat18:14 Even so it is not the pleasure of your Father in heaven for one of these little ones to come to destruction.
Mat18:17 And if he will not give ear to them, let it come to the hearing of the church: and if he will not give ear to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax-farmer.
Mat18:18 Truly I say to you, Whatever things are fixed by you on earth will be fixed in heaven: and whatever you make free on earth will be made free in heaven.
Mat18:19 Again, I say to you, that if two of you are in agreement on earth about anything for which they will make a request, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.
Mat18:20 For where two or three are come together in my name, there am I among them.
Mat18:35 So will my Father in heaven do to you, if you do not everyone, from your hearts, give forgiveness to his brother.
Mat19:2 And a great number went after him; and he made them well there.
Mat19:5 For this cause will a man go away from his father and mother, and be joined to his wife; and the two will become one flesh?
Mat19:8 He says to them, Moses, because of your hard hearts, let you put away your wives: but it has not been so from the first.
Mat19:9 And I say to you, Whoever puts away his wife for any other cause than the loss of her virtue, and takes another, is a false husband: and he who takes her as his wife when she is put away, is no true husband to her.
Mat19:13 Then some people took little children to him, so that he might put his hands on them in blessing: and the disciples said sharp words to them.
Mat19:14 But Jesus said, Let the little ones come to me, and do not keep them away: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
Mat19:15 And he put his hands on them, and went away.
Mat19:23 And Jesus said to his disciples, Truly I say to you, It is hard for a man with much money to go into the kingdom of heaven.
Mat19:24 And again I say to you, It is simpler for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a man with much money to go into the kingdom of God.
Mat19:26 And Jesus, looking at them, said, With men this is not possible; but with God all things are possible.
Mat19:27 Then Peter said to him, See, we have given up everything and have come after you; what then will we have?
Mat19:28 And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you that in the time when all things are made new, and the Son of man is seated in his glory, you who have come after me will be seated on twelve seats, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Mat20:2 And when he had made an agreement with the workmen for a penny a day, he sent them into his vine-garden.
Mat20:4 And he said to them, Go into the vine-garden with the others, and whatever is right I will give you. And they went to work.
Mat20:6 And about the eleventh hour he went out and saw others doing nothing; and he says to them, Why are you here all the day doing nothing?
Mat20:7 They say to him, Because no man has given us work. He says to them, Go in with the rest, into the vine-garden.
Mat20:8 And when evening came, the lord of the vine-garden said to his manager, Let the workers come, and give them their payment, from the last to the first.
Mat20:10 Then those who came first had the idea that they would get more; and they, like the rest, were given a penny.
Mat20:11 And when they got it, they made a protest against the master of the house,
Mat20:12 Saying, These last have done only one hour's work, and you have made them equal to us, who have undergone the hard work of the day and the burning heat.
Mat20:17 And when Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples on one side, and said to them,
Mat20:18 See, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be given into the hands of the chief priests and scribes; and they will give orders for him to be put to death,
Mat20:22 But Jesus made answer and said, You have no idea what you are requesting. Are you able to take of the cup which I am about to take?
Mat20:23 They say to him, We are able. He says to them, Truly, you will take of my cup: but to be seated at my right hand and at my left is not for me to give, but it is for those for whom my Father has made it ready.
Mat20:24 And when it came to the ears of the ten, they were angry with the two brothers.
Mat20:25 But Jesus said to them, You see that the rulers of the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.
Mat20:26 Let it not be so among you: but if anyone has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant;
Mat20:27 And whoever has a desire to be first among you, let him take the lowest place:
Mat20:29 And when they were going out from Jericho, a great number went after him.
Mat20:30 And two blind men seated by the wayside, when they had the news that Jesus was going by, gave a loud cry, saying, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.
Mat20:31 And the people gave them orders to be quiet; but they went on crying even louder, Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us.
Mat20:32 And Jesus, stopping, sent for them, and said, What would you have me do to you?
Mat20:33 They say to him, Lord, that our eyes may be open.
Mat20:34 And Jesus, being moved with pity, put his fingers on their eyes: and straight away they were able to see, and went after him.
Mat21:2 Saying to them, Go into the little town in front of you, and straight away you will see an ass with a cord round her neck, and a young one with her; let them loose and come with them to me.
Mat21:3 And if anyone says anything to you, you will say, The Lord has need of them; and straight away he will send them.
Mat21:13 And he said to them, It is in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer, but you are making it a hole of thieves.
Mat21:14 And the blind and the broken in body came to him in the Temple, and he made them well.
Mat21:16 Have you any idea what these are saying? And Jesus said to them, Yes: have you not seen in the Writings, From the lips of children and babies at the breast you have made your praise complete?
Mat21:17 And he went away from them, and went out of the town to Bethany, and was there for the night.
Mat21:21 And Jesus in answer said to them, Truly I say to you, If you have faith, without doubting, not only may you do what has been done to the fig-tree, but even if you say to this mountain, Be taken up and put into the sea, it will be done.
Mat21:22 And all things, whatever you make request for in prayer, having faith, you will get.
Mat21:24 And Jesus said to them in answer, I will put one question to you, and if you give me the answer, I will say by what authority I do these things.
Mat21:25 The baptism of John, where did it come from? from heaven or from men? And they were reasoning among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say to us, Why then did you not have faith in him?
Mat21:26 But if we say, From men; we are in fear of the people, because all take John to be a prophet.
Mat21:27 And they made answer and said, We have no idea. Then he said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.
Mat21:31 Which of the two did his father's pleasure? They say, The first. Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, that tax-farmers and loose women are going into the kingdom of God before you.
Mat21:32 For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and you had no faith in him, but the tax-farmers and the loose women had faith in him: and you, when you saw it, did not even have regret for your sins, so as to have faith in him.
Mat21:33 Give ear to another story. A master of a house made a vine garden, and put a wall round it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and made a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.
Mat21:36 Again, he sent other servants more in number than the first: and they did the same to them.
Mat21:37 But after that he sent his son to them, saying, They will have respect for my son.
Mat21:38 But when the workmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death and take his heritage.
Mat21:39 And they took him and, driving him out of the vine-garden, put him to death.
Mat21:41 They say to him, He will put those cruel men to a cruel death, and will let out the vine-garden to other workmen, who will give him the fruit when it is ready.
Mat21:42 Jesus says to them, Did you never see in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has been made the chief stone of the building: this was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes?
Mat21:43 For this reason I say to you, The kingdom of God will be taken away from you, and will be given to a nation producing the fruits of it.
Mat21:45 And when his stories came to the ears of the chief priests and the Pharisees, they saw that he was talking of them.
Mat21:46 And though they had a desire to take him, they were in fear of the people, because in their eyes he was a prophet.
Mat22:1 And Jesus, talking to them again in stories, said:
Mat22:3 And sent out his servants to get in the guests to the feast: and they would not come.
Mat22:4 Again he sent out other servants, with orders to say to the guests, See, I have made ready my feast: my oxen and my fat beasts have been put to death, and all things are ready: come to the feast.
Mat22:6 And the rest put violent hands on his servants, and did evil to them, and put them to death.
Mat22:7 But the king was angry; and he sent his armies, and those who had put his servants to death he gave to destruction, burning down their town with fire.
Mat22:9 Go then to the cross-roads, and get all those whom you see to come to the bride-feast.
Mat22:16 And they sent to him their disciples, with the Herodians, saying, Master, we see that you are true, and that you are teaching the true way of God, and have no fear of anyone, because you have no respect for a man's position.
Mat22:17 Give us, then, your opinion of this: Is it right to give tax to Caesar, or not?
Mat22:18 But Jesus saw their trick and said, Oh false ones, why are you attempting to put me in the wrong?
Mat22:19 Let me see the tax money. And they gave him a penny.
Mat22:21 They say to him, Caesar's. Then he said to them, Give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's.
Mat22:22 And hearing it, they were full of wonder, and went away from him.
Mat22:23 On the same day there came to him the Sadducees, who say that there is no coming back from the dead: and they put a question to him, saying,
Mat22:25 Now there were among us seven brothers; and the first was married and at his death, having no seed, gave his wife to his brother;
Mat22:28 When they come back from the dead, then, whose wife will she be of the seven? because they all had her.
Mat22:29 But Jesus said to them in answer, You are in error, not having knowledge of the Writings, or of the power of God.
Mat22:31 But about the dead coming back to life, have you no knowledge of what was said to you by God in the Writings:
Mat22:34 But the Pharisees, hearing how the mouths of the Sadducees had been stopped, came together;
Mat22:41 Now while the Pharisees were together, Jesus put a question to them, saying,
Mat22:42 What is your opinion of the Christ? whose son is he? They say to him, The Son of David.
Mat22:46 And no one was able to give him an answer, and so great was their fear of him, that from that day no one put any more questions to him.
Mat23:3 All things, then, which they give you orders to do, these do and keep: but do not take their works as your example, for they say and do not.
Mat23:4 They make hard laws and put great weights on men's backs; but they themselves will not put a finger to them.
Mat23:5 But all their works they do so as to be seen by men: for they make wide their phylacteries, and the edges of their robes,
Mat23:8 But you may not be named Teacher: for one is your teacher, and you are all brothers.
Mat23:9 And give no man the name of father on earth: because one is your Father, who is in heaven.
Mat23:10 And you may not be named guides: because one is your Guide, even Christ.
Mat23:11 But let the greatest among you be your servant.
Mat23:13 But a curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! because you are shutting the kingdom of heaven against men: for you do not go in yourselves, and those who are going in, you keep back.
Mat23:14 []
Mat23:15 A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you go about land and sea to get one disciple and, having him, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.
Mat23:16 A curse is on you, blind guides, who say, Whoever takes an oath by the Temple, it is nothing; but whoever takes an oath by the gold of the Temple, he is responsible.
Mat23:17 You foolish ones and blind: which is greater, the gold, or the Temple which makes the gold holy?
Mat23:18 And, Whoever takes an oath by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever takes an oath by the offering which is on it, he is responsible.
Mat23:19 You blind ones: which is greater, the offering, or the altar which makes the offering holy?
Mat23:23 A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you make men give a tenth of all sorts of sweet-smelling plants, but you give no thought to the more important things of the law, righteousness, and mercy, and faith; but it is right for you to do these, and not to let the others be undone.
Mat23:24 You blind guides, who take out a fly from your drink, but make no trouble over a camel.
Mat23:25 A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you make clean the outside of the cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of violent behaviour and uncontrolled desire.
Mat23:27 A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! for you are like the resting-places of the dead, which are made white, and seem beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men's bones and of all unclean things.
Mat23:28 Even so you seem to men to be full of righteousness, but inside you are all false and full of wrongdoing.
Mat23:29 A curse is on you, scribes and Pharisees, false ones! because you put up buildings for housing the dead bodies of the prophets, and make fair the last resting-places of good men, and say,
Mat23:30 If we had been living in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in the blood of the prophets.
Mat23:31 So that you are witnesses against yourselves that you are the sons of those who put the prophets to death.
Mat23:32 Make full, then, the measure of your fathers.
Mat23:33 You snakes, offspring of snakes, how will you be kept from the punishment of hell?
Mat23:34 For this reason, I send you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: some of them you will put to death and put on the cross, and to some of them you will give blows in your Synagogues, driving them from town to town;
Mat23:35 So that on you may come all the blood of the upright on the earth, from the blood of upright Abel to the blood of Zachariah, son of Barachiah, whom you put to death between the Temple and the altar.
Mat23:36 Truly I say to you, All these things will come on this generation.
Mat23:37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, putting to death the prophets, and stoning those who are sent to her! Again and again would I have taken your children to myself as a bird takes her young ones under her wings, and you would not!
Mat23:38 See, your house is made waste.
Mat23:39 For I say to you, You will not see me from this time till you say, A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord.
Mat24:2 But he, answering, said to them, See you not all these things? truly I say to you that here there will not be one stone resting on another, which will not be pulled down.
Mat24:3 And while he was seated on the Mountain of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, Make clear to us, when will these things be? and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the world?
Mat24:4 And Jesus said to them in answer, Take care that you are not tricked.
Mat24:6 And news will come to you of wars and talk of wars: do not be troubled, for these things have to be; but it is still not the end.
Mat24:9 Then they will be cruel to you, and will put you to death: and you will be hated by all nations because of my name.
Mat24:15 When, then, you see in the holy place the unclean thing which makes destruction, of which word was given by Daniel the prophet (let this be clear to the reader),
Mat24:20 And say a prayer that your flight may not be in the winter, or on a Sabbath.
Mat24:23 Then if any man says to you, See, here is the Christ, or, Here; do not put faith in him;
Mat24:25 See, I have made it clear to you before it comes about.
Mat24:26 If, then, they say to you, See, he is in the waste land; go not out: See, he is in the inner rooms; put no faith in it.
Mat24:30 And then the sign of the Son of man will be seen in heaven: and then all the nations of the earth will have sorrow, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Mat24:32 Now take an example from the fig-tree: when her branch has become soft and puts out its leaves, you are certain that the summer is near;
Mat24:33 Even so, when you see all these things, you may be certain that he is near, even at the doors.
Mat24:34 Truly I say to you, This generation will not come to an end till all these things are complete.
Mat24:39 And they had no care till the waters came and took them all away; so will be the coming of the Son of man.
Mat24:42 Be watching, then! for you have no knowledge on what day your Lord will come.
Mat24:43 But be certain of this, that if the master of the house had had knowledge of the time when the thief was coming, he would have been watching, and would not have let his house be broken into.
Mat24:44 Be ready then; for at a time which you have no thought of the Son of man will come.
Mat24:45 Who is the true and wise servant, whom his lord has put over those in his house, to give them their food at the right time?
Mat24:47 Truly, I say to you, he will put him over all he has.
Mat25:5 Now the husband was a long time in coming, and they all went to sleep.
Mat25:6 But in the middle of the night there is a cry, The husband comes! Go out to him.
Mat25:8 And the foolish said to the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lights are going out.
Mat25:9 But the wise made answer, saying, There may not be enough for us and you; it would be better for you to go to the traders and get oil for yourselves.
Mat25:10 And while they went to get oil, the master came; and those who were ready went in with him to the feast: and the door was shut.
Mat25:11 After that the other virgins came, saying, Lord, Lord, let us in.
Mat25:12 But he made answer and said, Truly I say to you, I have no knowledge of you.
Mat25:13 Keep watch, then, because you are not certain of the day or of the hour.
Mat25:14 For it is as when a man, about to take a journey, got his servants together, and gave them his property.
Mat25:15 And to one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one; to everyone as he was able; and he went on his journey.
Mat25:19 Now after a long time the lord of those servants comes, and makes up his account with them.
Mat25:32 And before him all the nations will come together; and they will be parted one from another, as the sheep are parted from the goats by the keeper.
Mat25:34 Then will the King say to those on his right, Come, you who have the blessing of my Father, into the kingdom made ready for you before the world was:
Mat25:35 For I was in need of food, and you gave it to me: I was in need of drink, and you gave it to me: I was wandering, and you took me in;
Mat25:36 I had no clothing, and you gave it to me: when I was ill, or in prison, you came to me.
Mat25:37 Then will the upright make answer to him, saying, Lord, when did we see you in need of food, and give it to you? or in need of drink, and give it to you?
Mat25:40 And the King will make answer and say to them, Truly I say to you, Because you did it to the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.
Mat25:41 Then will he say to those on the left, Go from me, you cursed ones, into the eternal fire which is ready for the Evil One and his angels:
Mat25:42 For I was in need of food, and you gave it not to me; I was in need of drink, and you gave it not to me:
Mat25:43 I was wandering, and you took me not in; without clothing, and you gave me no clothing; ill, and in prison, and you came not to me.
Mat25:44 Then will they make answer, saying, Lord, when did we see you in need of food or drink, or wandering, or without clothing, or ill, or in prison, and did not take care of you?
Mat25:45 Then will he make answer to them, saying, Truly I say to you, Because you did it not to the least of these, you did it not to me.
Mat26:2 After two days is the Passover, and the Son of man will be given up to the death of the cross.
Mat26:10 But Jesus, seeing it, said to them, Why are you troubling the woman? she has done a kind act to me.
Mat26:11 For the poor you have ever with you, but me you have not for ever.
Mat26:13 Truly I say to you, Wherever this good news goes out in all the world, what this woman has done will be talked of in memory of her.
Mat26:15 What will you give me, if I give him up to you? And the price was fixed at thirty bits of silver.
Mat26:16 And from that time he was watching for a chance to give him into their hands.
Mat26:17 Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where are we to make ready for you to take the Passover meal?
Mat26:18 And he said to them, Go into the town to such a man, and say to him, The Master says, My time is near: I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.
Mat26:21 And while they were taking food, he said, Truly I say to you that one of you will be false to me.
Mat26:22 And they were very said, and said to him, one by one, Is it I, Lord?
Mat26:26 And when they were taking food, Jesus took bread and, after blessing it, he gave the broken bread to the disciples and said, Take it; this is my body.
Mat26:27 And he took a cup and, having given praise, he gave it to them, saying,
Mat26:29 But I say to you that from now I will not take of this fruit of the vine, till that day when I take it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
Mat26:30 And after a song of praise to God, they went out to the Mountain of Olives.
Mat26:31 Then said Jesus to them, All of you will be turned away from me this night: for it is said in the Writings, I will put to death the keeper of the sheep, and the sheep of the flock will be put to flight.
Mat26:32 But after I am come back from the dead, I will go before you into Galilee.
Mat26:36 Then comes Jesus with them to a place named Gethsemane, and says to his disciples, Be seated here, while I go over there for prayer.
Mat26:38 Then says he to them, My soul is very sad, even to death: keep watch with me here.
Mat26:40 And he comes to the disciples, and sees that they are sleeping, and says to Peter, What, were you not able to keep watch with me one hour?
Mat26:41 Keep watch with prayer, so that you may not be put to the test: the spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is feeble.
Mat26:43 And he came again and saw them sleeping, for their eyes were tired.
Mat26:44 And he went away from them again, and a third time said the same prayer.
Mat26:45 Then he comes to the disciples; and says to them, Go on sleeping now, and take your rest: for the hour is come, and the Son of man is given into the hands of evil men.
Mat26:46 Up, let us be going: see, he who gives me up is near.
Mat26:48 Now the false one had given them a sign saying, The one to whom I give a kiss, that is he: take him.
Mat26:55 In that hour Jesus said to the people, Have you come out as against a thief with swords and sticks to take me? I was teaching every day in the Temple and you took me not.
Mat26:63 But Jesus said not a word. And the high priest said to him, I put you on oath, by the living God, that you will say to us if you are the Christ, the Son of God.
Mat26:64 Jesus says to him, You say so: but I say to you, From now you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.
Mat26:65 Then the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, He has said evil against God: what more need have we of witnesses? for now his words against God have come to your ears:
Mat26:66 What is your opinion? They made answer and said, It is right for him to be put to death.
Mat26:67 Then they put shame on him, and were cruel to him: and some gave him blows, saying,
Mat26:68 Be a prophet, O Christ, and say who gave you a blow!
Mat26:73 And after a little time those who were near came and said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; because your talk is witness against you.
Mat27:4 Saying, I have done wrong in giving into your hands an upright man. But they said, What is that to us? it is your business.
Mat27:7 And they made a decision to get with the silver the potter's field, as a place for the dead of other countries.
Mat27:9 Then came true that which was said by Jeremiah the prophet, And they took the thirty bits of silver, the price of him who was valued by the children of Israel;
Mat27:13 Then says Pilate to him, Do you give no attention to what their witnesses say against you?
Mat27:15 Now at the feast it was the way for the ruler to let free to the people one prisoner, at their selection.
Mat27:17 So when they came together, Pilate said to them, Whom will you have? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is named Christ?
Mat27:18 For he saw that for envy they had given him up.
Mat27:21 But the ruler made answer and said to them, Which of the two is it your pleasure that I let go free? And they said, Barabbas.
Mat27:22 Pilate says to them, What, then, am I to do with Jesus, who is named Christ? They all say, Let him be put to death on the cross.
Mat27:23 And he said, Why, what evil has he done? But they gave loud cries, saying, To the cross with him!
Mat27:24 So when Pilate saw that he was able to do nothing, but that trouble was working up, he took water and, washing his hands before the people, said, The blood of this upright man is not on my hands: you are responsible.
Mat27:25 And all the people made answer and said, Let his blood be on us, and on our children.
Mat27:26 Then he let Barabbas go free: but after having Jesus whipped, he gave him up to be put to death on the cross.
Mat27:28 And they took off his clothing, and put on him a red robe.
Mat27:32 And while they were coming out, they saw a man of Cyrene, Simon by name, and they made him go with them, so that he might take up his cross.
Mat27:35 And when they had put him on the cross, they made division of his clothing among them by the decision of chance.
Mat27:42 A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will have faith in him.
Mat27:53 And coming out of their resting-places, after he had come again from the dead, they went into the holy town and were seen by a number of people.
Mat27:55 And a number of women were there, watching from a distance, who had come with Jesus from Galilee, waiting on his needs.
Mat27:63 Saying, Sir, we have in mind how that false man said, while he was still living, After three days I will come again from the dead.
Mat27:65 Pilate said to them, You have watchmen; go and make it as safe as you are able.
Mat27:66 So they went, and made safe the place where his body was, putting a stamp on the stone, and the watchmen were with them.
Mat28:5 And the angel said to the women, Have no fear: for I see that you are searching for Jesus, who was put to death on the cross.
Mat28:6 He is not here, for he has come to life again, even as he said. Come, see the Lord's resting-place.
Mat28:7 And go quickly and give his disciples the news that he has come back from the dead, and is going before you into Galilee; there you will see him, as I have said to you.
Mat28:8 And they went away quickly, with fear and great joy, to give his disciples the news.
Mat28:9 And on the way, Jesus came to them, saying, Be glad. And they came and put their hands on his feet, and gave him worship.
Mat28:10 Then said Jesus to them, Have no fear: go and give word to my brothers to go into Galilee, and there they will see me.
Mat28:11 Now, while they were going, some of the watchmen came into the town and gave news to the chief priests of all the things which had taken place.
Mat28:13 Say, His disciples came by night and took him away secretly while we were sleeping.
Mat28:14 And if this comes to the ruler's ears, we will see that he does not make you responsible.
Mat28:15 So they took the money, and did as they had been ordered: and this account has been current among the Jews till the present time.
Mat28:17 And when they saw him they gave him worship: but some were in doubt.
Mat28:18 And Jesus came to them and said, All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.
Mat28:19 Go then, and make disciples of all the nations, giving them baptism in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit:
Mat28:20 Teaching them to keep all the rules which I have given you: and see, I am ever with you, even to the end of the world.
Mak1:5 And there went out to him all the people of Judaea, and all those of Jerusalem, and they were given baptism by him in the river Jordan, saying that they were sinners.
Mak1:8 I have given you baptism with water, but he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit.
Mak1:15 And saying, The time has come, and the kingdom of God is near: let your hearts be turned from sin and have faith in the good news.
Mak1:16 And going by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew, the brother of Simon, putting a net into the sea: for they were fishermen.
Mak1:17 And Jesus said to them, Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.
Mak1:18 And they went straight from their nets, and came after him.
Mak1:20 And he said, Come after me: and they went away from their father Zebedee, who was in the boat with the servants, and came after him.
Mak1:22 And they were full of wonder at his teaching, because he gave it as one having authority, and not like the scribes.
Mak1:24 Saying, What have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? have you come to put an end to us? I see well who you are, the Holy One of God.
Mak1:29 And when they came out of the Synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
Mak1:31 And he came and took her by the hand, lifting her up; and she became well, and took care of their needs.
Mak1:38 And he said to them, Let us go to other parts into the nearest towns, so that I may give teaching there, because for this purpose I came.
Mak2:2 And a great number had come together, so that there was no longer room for them, no, not even about the door: and he gave them teaching.
Mak2:5 And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to him, Son, you have forgiveness for your sins.
Mak2:8 And Jesus, having knowledge in his spirit of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?
Mak2:10 But so that you may see that the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins on earth, (he said to the man,)
Mak2:12 And he got up, and straight away took up the bed and went out before them all, so that they were all full of wonder, and gave glory to God, saying, We have never seen anything like this.
Mak2:13 And he went out again by the seaside; and all the people came to him, and he gave them teaching.
Mak2:15 And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.
Mak2:17 And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill: I have come not to get the upright but sinners.
Mak2:18 And John's disciples and the Pharisees were taking no food: and they came and said to him, Why do John's disciples and the disciples of the Pharisees go without food, but your disciples do not?
Mak2:19 And Jesus said to them, Will the friends of a newly-married man go without food while he is with them? as long as they have him with them they will not go without food.
Mak2:20 But the days will come when the husband will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.
Mak2:24 And the Pharisees said to him, Why are they doing what it is not right to do on the Sabbath?
Mak2:25 And he said to them, Have you no knowledge of what David did, when he had need and was without food, he, and those who were with him?
Mak2:27 And he said to them, The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath;
Mak3:4 And he said to them, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to put to death? But they said nothing.
Mak3:5 And looking round on them he was angry, being sad because of their hard hearts; and he said to the man, Put out your hand. And he put it out, and his hand was made well.
Mak3:12 And he gave them special orders not to say who he was.
Mak3:13 And he went up into the mountain, and sent for those whom it was his pleasure to have with him: and they went to him.
Mak3:14 And he took twelve to be with him, so that he might send them out as preachers,
Mak3:15 And give them the power of driving out evil spirits:
Mak3:21 And when his friends had news of it, they went out to get him, saying, He is off his head.
Mak3:23 And turning to them, he said to them in the form of a story, How is it possible for Satan to put out Satan?
Mak3:28 Truly, I say to you, The sons of men will have forgiveness for all their sins and for all the evil words they say:
Mak3:30 Because they said, He has an unclean spirit.
Mak3:32 And a great number were seated round him; and they said to him, See, your mother and your brothers are outside looking for you.
Mak4:2 And he gave them teaching about a number of things in the form of stories, and said to them in his teaching, Give ear:
Mak4:3 A man went out to put seed in the earth:
Mak4:11 And he said to them, To you is given the secret of the kingdom of God, but to those who are outside, all things are given in the form of stories;
Mak4:12 So that seeing they may see, and it will not be clear to them; and hearing it, they will not get the sense; for fear that they may be turned again to me and have forgiveness.
Mak4:13 And he said to them, If you are not clear about this story, how will you be clear about the others?
Mak4:21 And he said to them, When the light comes in, do people put it under a vessel, or under the bed, and not on its table?
Mak4:24 And he said to them, Take care what you give ear to: in the same measure as you give you will get, and more will be given to you.
Mak4:30 And he said, What picture may we give of the kingdom of God, or with what story may we make it clear?
Mak4:33 And with a number of such stories he gave them his teaching, as they were able to take it:
Mak4:34 And without a story he said nothing to them: but privately to his disciples he made all things clear.
Mak4:35 And on that day, when the evening had come, he said to them, Let us go over to the other side.
Mak4:36 And going away from the people, they took him with them, as he was, in the boat. And other boats were with him.
Mak4:38 And he himself was in the back of the boat, sleeping on the cushion: and they, awaking him, said, Master, is it nothing to you that we are in danger of destruction?
Mak4:40 And he said to them, Why are you full of fear? have you still no faith?
Mak4:41 And their fear was great, and they said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea do his orders?
Mak5:1 And they came to the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gerasenes.
Mak5:9 And Jesus said, What is your name? And he made answer, My name is Legion, because there are a great number of us.
Mak5:10 And he made strong prayers to him not to send them away out of the country.
Mak5:12 And they said to him, Send us into the pigs, so that we may go into them.
Mak5:13 And he let them do it. And the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea, about two thousand of them; and they came to their death in the sea.
Mak5:15 And they came to Jesus, and saw the man in whom had been the evil spirits seated, clothed and with full use of his senses, and they were full of fear.
Mak5:17 And they made a request to him to go out of their country.
Mak5:19 And he would not let him, but said to him, Go to your house, to your friends, and give them news of the great things the Lord has done for you, and how he had mercy on you.
Mak5:38 And they came to the house of the ruler of the Synagogue; and he saw people running this way and that, and weeping and crying loudly.
Mak5:39 And when he had gone in, he said to them, Why are you making such a noise and weeping? The child is not dead, but sleeping.
Mak5:40 And they were laughing at him. But he, having sent them all out, took the father of the child and her mother and those who were with him, and went in where the child was.
Mak5:42 And the young girl got up straight away, and was walking about; she being twelve years old. And they were overcome with wonder.
Mak5:43 And he gave them special orders that they were not to say anything of this; and he said that some food was to be given to her.
Mak6:3 Is not this the woodworker, the son of Mary, and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were bitter against him.
Mak6:4 And Jesus said to them, A prophet is nowhere without honour, but in his country, and among his relations, and in his family.
Mak6:5 And he was unable to do any work of power there, but only to put his hands on one or two persons who were ill, and make them well.
Mak6:6 And he was greatly surprised because they had no faith. And he went about the country places teaching.
Mak6:7 And he gave orders to the twelve, and sent them out two by two; and he gave them authority over the unclean spirits;
Mak6:8 And he said that they were to take nothing for their journey, but a stick only; no bread, no bag, no money in their pockets;
Mak6:10 And he said to them, Wherever you go into a house, make that your resting-place till you go away.
Mak6:11 And whatever place will not take you in and will not give ear to you, when you go away, put off the dust from your feet as a witness against them.
Mak6:13 And they sent out a number of evil spirits, and put oil on a great number who were ill, and made them well.
Mak6:31 And he said to them, Come away by yourselves to a quiet place, and take a rest for a time. Because there were a great number coming and going, and they had no time even for food.
Mak6:32 And they went away in the boat to a waste place by themselves.
Mak6:33 And the people saw them going, and a number of them, having knowledge who they were, went running there together on foot from all the towns, and got there before them.
Mak6:34 And he got out, and saw a great mass of people, and he had pity on them, because they were like sheep without a keeper: and he gave them teaching about a number of things.
Mak6:36 Send them away, so that they may go into the country and small towns round about, and get some food for themselves.
Mak6:37 But he said to them in answer, Give them food yourselves. And they said to him, Are we to go and get bread for two hundred pence, and give it to them?
Mak6:38 And he said to them, How much bread have you? go and see. And when they had seen, they said, Five cakes of bread and two fishes.
Mak6:39 And he made them all be seated in groups on the green grass.
Mak6:42 And they all took of the food and had enough.
Mak6:46 And after he had sent them away, he went up into a mountain for prayer.
Mak6:48 And seeing that they had trouble in getting their boat through the water, because the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have gone past them;
Mak6:50 For they all saw him, and were troubled. But straight away he said to them, Take heart, it is I, have no fear.
Mak6:51 And he went to them into the boat, and the wind went down, and they were full of wonder in themselves;
Mak6:52 For it was not clear to them about the bread; but their hearts were hard.
Mak6:56 And wherever he went, into small towns, or great towns, or into the country, they took those who were ill into the market-places, requesting him that they might put their hands even on the edge of his robe: and all those who did so were made well.
Mak7:2 And had seen that some of his disciples took their bread with unclean, that is, unwashed, hands.
Mak7:4 And when they come from the market-place, they take no food till their hands are washed; and a number of other orders there are, which have been handed down to them to keep--washings of cups and pots and brass vessels.
Mak7:6 And he said, Well did Isaiah say of you, you false ones: These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.
Mak7:7 But their worship is to no purpose, while they give as their teaching the rules of men.
Mak7:8 For, turning away from the law of God, you keep the rules of men.
Mak7:9 And he said to them, Truly you put on one side the law of God, so that you may keep the rules which have been handed down to you.
Mak7:11 But you say, If a man says to his father or his mother, That by which you might have had profit from me is Corban, that is to say, Given to God,
Mak7:12 You no longer let him do anything for his father or his mother;
Mak7:13 Making the word of God of no effect by your rule, which you have given: and a number of other such things you do.
Mak7:14 And turning to the people again, he said to them, Give ear to me all of you, and let my words be clear to you:
Mak7:18 And he said to them, Have even you so little wisdom? Do you not see that whatever goes into a man from outside is not able to make him unclean,
Mak7:27 And he said to her, Let the children first have their food: for it is not right to take the children's bread and give it to the dogs.
Mak7:28 But she said to him in answer, Yes, Lord: even the dogs under the table take the bits dropped by the children.
Mak7:36 And he gave them orders not to give news of it to anyone; but the more he made this request, so much the more they made it public.
Mak7:37 And they were overcome with wonder, saying, He has done all things well: he even gives back the power of hearing and the power of talking to those who have been without them.
Mak8:2 I have pity for these people because they have been with me now three days, and have no food;
Mak8:3 If I send them away to their houses with no food, they will be overcome by weariness on the way; and some of them have come from far.
Mak8:5 And he put the question, How much bread have you? And they said, Seven cakes.
Mak8:6 And he made the people be seated on the earth: and he took the seven cakes and, having given praise, he gave the broken bread to his disciples to put before them; and they put it before the people.
Mak8:9 And there were about four thousand people: and he sent them away.
Mak8:11 And the Pharisees came out and put questions to him, requesting from him a sign from heaven, testing him.
Mak8:12 And he was very sad in spirit, and said, Why is this generation looking for a sign? truly, I say to you, No sign will be given to this generation.
Mak8:13 And he went away from them, and again got into the boat and went across to the other side.
Mak8:15 And he said to them, Take care to be on the watch against the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.
Mak8:16 And they said to one another, We have no bread.
Mak8:17 And Jesus, hearing it, said to them, Why are you reasoning among yourselves because you have no bread? do you still not see, and is it still not clear to you? are your hearts so hard?
Mak8:18 Having eyes, do you not see? and having ears, have you no hearing? and have you no memory?
Mak8:19 When I made a division of the five cakes of bread among the five thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? They said to him, Twelve.
Mak8:20 And when the seven among the four thousand, what number of baskets full of broken bits did you take up? And they said to him, Seven.
Mak8:21 And he said to them, Is it still not clear to you?
Mak8:22 And they came to Beth-saida. And they took a blind man to him, requesting him to put his hands on him.
Mak8:24 And looking up, he said, I see men; I see them like trees, walking.
Mak8:28 And they made answer, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; but others, One of the prophets.
Mak8:29 And he said to them, But who do you say I am? Peter said in answer, You are the Christ.
Mak8:30 And he put them under orders not to say this of him to anyone.
Mak8:31 And teaching them, he said that the Son of man would have to undergo much, and be hated by those in authority, and the chief priests, and the scribes, and be put to death, and after three days come back from the dead.
Mak8:34 And turning to the mass of people with his disciples, he said to them, If any man has the desire to come after me, let him give up all other desires, and take up his cross and come after me.
Mak9:1 And he said to them, Truly I say to you, There are some here who will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God come with power.
Mak9:2 And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and made them go up with him into a high mountain by themselves: and he was changed in form before them:
Mak9:4 And there came before them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
Mak9:5 And Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tents; one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.
Mak9:6 Because he was not certain what to say, for they were in great fear.
Mak9:7 And a cloud came over them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my dearly loved Son, give ear to him.
Mak9:8 And suddenly looking round about, they saw no one any longer, but Jesus only with themselves.
Mak9:9 And while they were coming down from the mountain, he gave them orders not to give word to any man of the things they had seen, till the Son of man had come back from the dead.
Mak9:11 And they put a question to him, saying, Why do the scribes say that Elijah has to come first?
Mak9:13 But I say to you that Elijah has come, and they have done to him whatever they were pleased to do, even as the Writings say about him.
Mak9:14 And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great mass of people about them, and scribes questioning them.
Mak9:16 And he said, What are you questioning them about?
Mak9:18 And wherever it takes him, it puts him down violently, streaming at the lips and twisted with pain; and his strength goes from him; and I made a request to your disciples to send it out, and they were not able.
Mak9:19 And he said to them in answer, O generation without faith, how long will I have to be with you? how long will I put up with you? let him come to me.
Mak9:20 And they took him to him: and when he saw him, the spirit in him straight away became violent; and he went down on the earth, rolling about and streaming at the lips.
Mak9:22 And frequently it has sent him into the fire and into the water, for his destruction; but if you are able to do anything, have pity on us, and give us help.
Mak9:28 And when he had gone into the house, his disciples said to him privately, Why were we unable to send it out?
Mak9:30 And they went out from there, through Galilee; and it was his desire that no man might have knowledge of it;
Mak9:31 For he was giving his disciples teaching, and saying to them, The Son of man is given up into the hands of men, and they will put him to death; and when he is dead, after three days he will come back from the dead.
Mak9:33 And they came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house, he put the question to them, What were you talking about on the way?
Mak9:34 But they said nothing: because they had had an argument between themselves on the way, about who was the greatest.
Mak9:36 And he took a little child, and put him in the middle of them; and taking him in his arms, he said to them,
Mak9:38 John said to him, Master, we saw one driving out evil spirits in your name: and we said that he might not, because he is not one of us.
Mak9:40 He who is not against us is for us.
Mak9:41 Whoever gives you a cup of water, because you are Christ's, truly I say to you, he will in no way be without his reward.
Mak9:50 Salt is good; but if the taste goes from it, how will you make it salt again? Have salt in yourselves, and be at peace one with another.
Mak10:1 And he got up, and went into the country of Judaea on the other side of Jordan: and great numbers of people came together to him again; and, as was his way, he gave them teaching.
Mak10:3 And he said to them in answer, What did Moses say you were to do?
Mak10:4 And they said to him, Moses let us give her a statement in writing, and be free from her.
Mak10:5 But Jesus said to them, Because of your hard hearts he gave you this law.
Mak10:11 And he said to them, Whoever puts away his wife and takes another, is false to his wife;
Mak10:13 And they took to him little children, so that he might put his hands on them: and the disciples said sharp words to them.
Mak10:14 And when Jesus saw it, he was angry, and said to them, Let the little children come to me, and do not keep them away; for of such is the kingdom of God.
Mak10:15 Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.
Mak10:16 And he took them in his arms, and gave them a blessing, putting his hands on them.
Mak10:24 And the disciples were full of wonder at his words. But Jesus said to them again, Children, how hard it is for those who put faith in wealth to come into the kingdom of God!
Mak10:27 Jesus, looking on them, said, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God.
Mak10:28 Peter said to him, See, we have given up everything, and come after you.
Mak10:29 Jesus said, Truly I say to you, There is no man who has given up house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or land, because of me and the good news,
Mak10:32 And they were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going before them: and they were full of wonder; but those who came after him were in fear. And again he took the twelve, and gave them word of the things which were to come on him,
Mak10:33 Saying, See, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man will be given up to the chief priests and the scribes; and they will give an order for his death, and will give him up to the Gentiles:
Mak10:34 And they will make sport of him, and put shame on him, and give him cruel blows, and will put him to death; and after three days he will come back from the dead.
Mak10:35 And there came to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying to him, Master, will you give us whatever may be our request?
Mak10:36 And he said to them, What would you have me do for you?
Mak10:37 And they said to him, Let us be seated, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.
Mak10:38 But Jesus said to them, You have no knowledge of what you are saying. Are you able to take of my cup? or to undergo the baptism which I am to undergo?
Mak10:39 And they said to him, We are able. And Jesus said to them, You will take of the cup from which I take; and the baptism which I am about to undergo you will undergo:
Mak10:42 And Jesus made them come to him, and said to them, You see that those who are made rulers over the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.
Mak10:43 But it is not so among you: but whoever has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant:
Mak10:44 And whoever has a desire to be first among you, let him be servant of all.
Mak10:49 And Jesus came to a stop and said, Let him come. And crying out to the blind man, they said to him, Be comforted: come, he has sent for you.
Mak11:2 And said to them, Go into the little town opposite: and when you come to it, you will see a young ass with a cord round his neck, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose, and come back with him.
Mak11:3 And if anyone says to you, Why are you doing this? say, The Lord has need of him and will send him back straight away.
Mak11:4 And they went away and saw a young ass by the door outside in the open street; and they were getting him loose.
Mak11:5 And some of those who were there said to them, What are you doing, taking the ass?
Mak11:6 And they said to them the words which Jesus had said; and they let them go.
Mak11:7 And they took the young ass to Jesus, and put their clothing on him, and he got on his back.
Mak11:12 And on the day after, when they had come out from Bethany, he was in need of food.
Mak11:15 And they came to Jerusalem; and he went into the Temple, and sent out those who were trading there, overturning the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who were offering doves for money;
Mak11:17 And he gave them teaching, and said to them, Is it not in the Writings, My house is to be named a house of prayer for all the nations? but you have made it a hole of thieves.
Mak11:20 And when they were going by in the morning, they saw the fig-tree dead from the roots.
Mak11:22 And Jesus, answering, said to them, Have God's faith.
Mak11:23 Truly I say to you, Whoever says to this mountain, Be taken up and be put into the sea; and has no doubt in his heart, but has faith that what he says will come about, he will have his desire.
Mak11:24 For this reason I say to you, Whatever you make a request for in prayer, have faith that it has been given to you, and you will have it.
Mak11:25 And whenever you make a prayer, let there be forgiveness in your hearts, if you have anything against anyone; so that you may have forgiveness for your sins from your Father who is in heaven.
Mak11:26 []
Mak11:27 And they came again to Jerusalem: and while he was walking in the Temple, there came to him the chief priests and the scribes and those in authority:
Mak11:29 And Jesus said to them, I will put to you one question; give me an answer, and I will say by what authority I do these things.
Mak11:30 The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from men? give me an answer.
Mak11:31 And they gave thought to it among themselves, saying, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why then did you not have faith in him?
Mak11:33 And they said in answer to Jesus, We have no idea. And Jesus said to them, And I will not say to you by what authority I do these things.
Mak12:1 And he gave them teaching in the form of stories. A man had a vine-garden planted, and put a wall about it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and put up a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.
Mak12:4 And again he sent to them another servant; and they gave him wounds on the head, and were very cruel to him.
Mak12:5 And he sent another; and they put him to death: and a number of others, whipping some, and putting some to death.
Mak12:6 He still had one, a dearly loved son: he sent him last to them, saying, They will have respect for my son.
Mak12:7 But those workmen said among themselves, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property; come, let us put him to death, and the heritage will be ours.
Mak12:11 This was the Lord's doing, and it is a wonder in our eyes?
Mak12:12 And they made attempts to take him; but they were in fear of the people, because they saw that the story was against them; and they went away from him.
Mak12:13 Then they sent to him certain of the Pharisees and the Herodians, so that they might make use of his words to take him by a trick.
Mak12:14 And when they had come, they said to him, Master, we are certain that you are true, and have no fear of anyone: you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God: Is it right to give taxes to Caesar or not?
Mak12:15 Are we to give or not to give? But he, conscious of their false hearts, said to them, Why do you put me to the test? give me a penny, so that I may see it.
Mak12:16 And they gave him one. And he said to them, Whose is this image and name on it? And they said to him, Caesar's.
Mak12:17 And Jesus said to them, Give to Caesar the things which are Caesar's, and to God the things which are God's. And they were full of wonder at him.
Mak12:18 And there came to him Sadducees, who say there is no coming back from the dead; and they put a question to him, saying,
Mak12:19 Master, in the law Moses says, If a man's brother comes to his end, and has a wife still living and no child, it is right for his brother to take his wife, and get a family for his brother.
Mak12:23 In the future life, when they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for the seven had her for a wife.
Mak12:24 Jesus said to them, Is not this the reason for your error, that you have no knowledge of the holy Writings or of the power of God?
Mak12:26 But as to the dead coming back to life; have you not seen in the book of Moses, about the burning thorn-tree, how God said to him, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
Mak12:27 He is not the God of the dead, but of the living: you are greatly in error.
Mak12:28 And one of the scribes came, and hearing their argument together, and seeing that he had given them a good answer, put the question to him, Which law is the first of all?
Mak12:29 Jesus said in answer, The first is, Give ear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord;
Mak12:35 And Jesus, when he was teaching in the Temple, said, How do the scribes say that the Christ is the Son of David?
Mak12:38 And in his teaching he said, Be on your watch against the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes and be respected in the market-places,
Mak12:40 Who take away the property of widows, and before the eyes of men make long prayers; these will be judged more hardly.
Mak12:43 And he made his disciples come to him, and said to them, Truly I say to you, This poor widow has put in more than all those who are putting money into the box:
Mak12:44 Because they all put in something out of what they had no need for; but she out of her need put in all she had, even all her living.
Mak13:4 Say when these things will be, and what will be the sign when these things are all about to be done.
Mak13:5 And Jesus said to them, Take care that you are not tricked by anyone.
Mak13:7 And when you have news of wars and talk of wars, do not be troubled; these things have to be, but it is still not the end.
Mak13:9 But take care: for they will give you up to the Sanhedrins; and in Synagogues you will be whipped; and you will be taken before rulers and kings because of me, for a sign to them.
Mak13:11 And when you are taken and given up to be judged, do not be troubled about what to say: but whatever is given to you in that hour, say: because it is not you who say it, but the Holy Spirit.
Mak13:12 And brother will give up brother to death, and the father his child; and children will go against their fathers and mothers, and put them to death.
Mak13:13 And you will be hated by all men, because of my name; but he who goes through to the end will have salvation.
Mak13:14 But when you see the unclean thing which makes destruction, in the place where it has no right to be (let this be clear to the reader), then let those who are in Judaea go quickly to the mountains:
Mak13:18 And say a prayer that it may not be in the winter.
Mak13:21 And then if any man says to you, See, here is Christ; or, See, there; have no faith in it:
Mak13:23 But take care; see, I have made all things clear to you before the time.
Mak13:26 And then they will see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory.
Mak13:28 Take an example from the fig-tree: when its branches become soft and put out their leaves, you see that the summer is near;
Mak13:29 Even so, when you see these things taking place, you may be certain that he is near, even at the doors.
Mak13:30 Truly, I say to you, This generation will not come to an end till all these things are complete.
Mak13:33 Take care, keep watch with prayer: for you are not certain when the time will be.
Mak13:35 So you are to keep watch: because you are not certain when the master of the house is coming, in the evening, or in the middle of the night, or at the cock's cry, or in the morning;
Mak13:36 For fear that, coming suddenly, he sees you sleeping.
Mak13:37 And what I say to you, I say to all, Keep watch.
Mak14:5 We might have got more than three hundred pence for it, and given the money to the poor. And they said things against her among themselves.
Mak14:7 The poor you have ever with you, and whenever you have the desire you may do them good: but me you have not for ever.
Mak14:9 And truly I say to you, Wherever the good news goes out through all the earth, what this woman has done will be talked of in memory of her.
Mak14:10 And Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests, so that he might give him up to them.
Mak14:11 And hearing what he said, they were glad, and gave him their word to make him a payment of money. And he took thought how he might best give him up to them.
Mak14:12 And on the first day of unleavened bread, when the Passover lamb is put to death, his disciples said to him, Where are we to go and make ready for you to take the Passover meal?
Mak14:13 And he sent two of his disciples, and said to them, Go into the town, and there will come to you a man with a vessel of water: go after him;
Mak14:14 And wherever he goes in, say to the owner of the house, The Master says, Where is my guest-room, where I may take the Passover with my disciples?
Mak14:15 And he will take you up himself to a great room with a table and seats: there make ready for us.
Mak14:16 And the disciples went out and came into the town, and saw that it was as he had said: and they made ready the Passover.
Mak14:18 And while they were seated taking food, Jesus said, Truly I say to you, One of you will be false to me, one who is taking food with me.
Mak14:19 They were sad, and said to him one by one, Is it I?
Mak14:20 And he said to them, It is one of the twelve, one who is putting his bread with me into the same plate.
Mak14:22 And while they were taking food, he took bread, and after blessing it, he gave the broken bread to them, and said, Take it: this is my body.
Mak14:23 And he took a cup, and when he had given praise, he gave it to them: and they all had a drink from it.
Mak14:25 Truly I say to you, I will take no more of the fruit of the vine till the day when I take it new in the kingdom of God.
Mak14:26 And after a song of praise to God they went out to the Mountain of Olives.
Mak14:27 And Jesus said to them, You will all be turned away from me: for it is in the Writings, I will put the keeper of the sheep to death, and the sheep will be put to flight.
Mak14:28 But after I have come back from the dead, I will go before you into Galilee.
Mak14:32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he said to his disciples, Be seated here while I say a prayer.
Mak14:34 And he said to them, My soul is very sad, even to death: be here a little time, and keep watch.
Mak14:37 And he came, and saw them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, are you sleeping? were you not able to keep watch one hour?
Mak14:38 Keep watch with prayer, so that you may not be put to the test; the spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is feeble.
Mak14:40 And again he came and saw them sleeping, because their eyes were very tired; and they had nothing to say in answer.
Mak14:41 And he came the third time, and said to them, Go on sleeping now and take your rest: it is enough; the hour has come; see, the Son of man is given up into the hands of evil men.
Mak14:42 Get up, let us be going; see, he who gives me up is near.
Mak14:44 Now he who had been false to him had given them a sign, saying, The one to whom I give a kiss, that is he; take him, and get him away safely.
Mak14:46 And they put their hands on him, and took him.
Mak14:48 And Jesus said to them, Have you come out as against a thief, with swords and sticks to take me?
Mak14:49 I was with you every day in the Temple teaching, and you did not take me; but this is done so that the Writings may come true.
Mak14:53 And they took Jesus away to the high priest; and there came together with him all the chief priests and those in authority and the scribes.
Mak14:56 For a number gave false witness against him and their witness was not in agreement.
Mak14:58 He said in our hearing, I will put an end to this Temple which is made with hands, and in three days I will make another without hands.
Mak14:59 And even so their witness was not in agreement.
Mak14:62 And Jesus said, I am: and you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.
Mak14:63 And the high priest, violently parting his robes, said, What more need have we of witnesses?
Mak14:64 His words against God have come to your ears: what is your opinion? And they all said it was right for him to be put to death.
Mak14:69 And the girl saw him, and said again to those who were near, This is one of them.
Mak14:70 But again he said it was not so. And after a little time, again those who were near said to Peter, Truly you are one of them; for you are a Galilaean.
Mak14:71 But, with curses and oaths, he said, I have no knowledge of the man about whom you are talking.
Mak15:4 And Pilate again put a question, Do you say nothing in answer? see how much evil they say you have done.
Mak15:6 Now at the feast every year he let one prisoner go free at their request.
Mak15:7 And there was one named Barabbas, in prison with those who had gone against the government and in the fight had taken life.
Mak15:8 And the people went up, requesting him to do as he had done for them in other years.
Mak15:9 And Pilate said in answer to them, Is it your desire that I let the King of the Jews go free?
Mak15:11 But the people were moved by the chief priests to make him let Barabbas go free.
Mak15:12 And Pilate again said in answer to them, What then am I to do to him to whom you give the name of the King of the Jews?
Mak15:13 And they said again loudly, To the cross with him!
Mak15:14 And Pilate said to them, Why, what evil has he done? But their cry was the louder, To the cross!
Mak15:15 And Pilate, desiring to do what was pleasing to the people, let Barabbas go free, and gave up Jesus, when he had been whipped, to be put to death on the cross.
Mak15:17 And they put a purple robe on him, and twisting a crown of thorns, they put it on him;
Mak15:21 And they made one, Simon of Cyrene, the father of Alexander and Rufus, who was going by, coming from the country, go with them, so that he might take his cross.
Mak15:22 And they took him to the place named Golgotha, which is, Dead Man's Head.
Mak15:27 And they put two thieves on crosses with him, one on his right side, and one on his left.
Mak15:32 Let the Christ, the King of Israel, come down now from the cross, so that we may see and have belief. And those who were put on crosses with him said evil things against him.
Mak16:2 And very early after dawn on the first day of the week, they came at the time of the coming up of the sun to the place where the body had been put.
Mak16:3 And they were saying among themselves, Who will get the stone rolled away from the door for us?
Mak16:4 And looking up, they saw that the stone was rolled back; and it was of great size.
Mak16:5 And when they went in, they saw a young man seated on the right side, dressed in a white robe; and they were full of wonder.
Mak16:6 And he said to them, Do not be troubled: you are looking for Jesus, the Nazarene, who has been put to death on the cross; he has come back from the dead; he is not here: see, the place where they put him!
Mak16:7 But go, say to his disciples and to Peter, He goes before you into Galilee: there you will see him, as he said to you.
Mak16:8 And they went out quickly from the place, because fear and great wonder had come on them: and they said nothing to anyone, because they were full of fear that ...
Mak16:10 She went and gave news of it to those who had been with him, while they were sorrowing and weeping.
Mak16:11 And they, when it came to their ears that he was living, and had been seen by her, had no belief in it.
Mak16:12 And after these things he was seen in another form by two of them, while they were walking on their way into the country.
Mak16:13 And they went away and gave news of it to the rest; and they had no belief in what was said.
Mak16:14 And later he was seen by the eleven themselves while they were taking food; and he said sharp words to them because they had no faith and their hearts were hard, and because they had no belief in those who had seen him after he had come back from the dead.
Mak16:15 And he said to them, Go into all the world, and give the good news to everyone.
Mak16:17 And these signs will be with those who have faith: in my name they will send out evil spirits; and they will make use of new languages;
Mak16:19 So then the Lord Jesus, after he had said these words to them, was taken up into heaven and took his seat at the right hand of God.
Mak16:20 And they went out, preaching everywhere, the Lord working with them, and giving witness to the word by the signs which came after. So be it.
Luk1:1 As a number of attempts have been made to put together in order an account of those events which took place among us,
Luk1:6 They were upright in the eyes of God, keeping all the rules and orders of God, and doing no wrong.
Luk1:16 And through him great numbers of the children of Israel will be turned to the Lord their God.
Luk1:22 And when he came out he was not able to say anything, and they saw that he had seen a vision in the Temple; and he was making signs to them without words.
Luk1:55 As he gave his word to our fathers.
Luk1:59 And on the eighth day they came to see to the circumcision of the child, and they would have given him the name of Zacharias, his father's name;
Luk1:61 And they said, Not one of your relations has that name.
Luk1:62 And they made signs to his father, to say what name was to be given to him.
Luk1:63 And he sent for writing materials and put down: His name is John; and they were all surprised.
Luk1:68 Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, for he has come to his people and made them free,
Luk1:69 Lifting up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David,
Luk1:71 Salvation from those who are against us, and from the hands of those who have hate for us;
Luk1:72 To do acts of mercy to our fathers and to keep in mind his holy word,
Luk1:73 The oath which he made to Abraham, our father,
Luk1:74 That we, being made free from the fear of those who are against us, might give him worship,
Luk1:78 Because of the loving mercies of our God, by which the dawn from heaven has come to us,
Luk1:79 To give light to those in dark places, and in the shade of death, so that our feet may be guided into the way of peace.
Luk2:6 And while they were there, the time came for her to give birth.
Luk2:9 And an angel of the Lord came to them, and the glory of the Lord was shining round about them: and fear came on them.
Luk2:10 And the angel said, Have no fear; for truly, I give you good news of great joy which will be for all the people:
Luk2:11 For on this day, in the town of David, a Saviour has come to birth, who is Christ the Lord.
Luk2:12 And this is the sign to you: you will see a young child folded in linen, in the place where the cattle have their food.
Luk2:15 And when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, the keepers of the sheep said to one another, Let us go now to Beth-lehem, and see this thing which has come about, which the Lord has made clear to us.
Luk2:16 And they came quickly, and saw Mary and Joseph, and the child in the place where the cattle had their food.
Luk2:18 And all those to whose ears it came were full of wonder at the things said by the keepers of the sheep.
Luk2:20 Then the keepers of the sheep went back, giving glory and praise to God for all the things which had come to their ears and which they had seen, as it had been said to them.
Luk2:22 And when the necessary days for making them clean by the law of Moses had come to an end, they took him to Jerusalem to give him to the Lord
Luk2:34 And Simeon gave them his blessing and said to Mary, his mother, See, this child will be the cause of the downfall and the lifting up of great numbers of people in Israel, and he will be a sign against which hard words will be said;
Luk2:42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up, as their way was, to the feast;
Luk2:43 And when the days of the feast came to an end and they were going back, the boy Jesus was still in Jerusalem, but they had no knowledge of it:
Luk2:48 And when they saw him they were surprised, and his mother said to him, Son, why have you done this to us? see, your father and I have been looking for you with sorrow.
Luk2:50 And his words seemed strange to them.
Luk2:51 And he went down with them and came to Nazareth; and did as he was ordered: and his mother kept all these words in her heart.
Luk3:7 So he said to the people who went out to him for baptism: You offspring of snakes, at whose word are you going in flight from the wrath to come?
Luk3:8 Make clear by your acts that your hearts have been changed; and do not say to yourselves, We have Abraham for our father: for I say to you that God is able from these stones to make children of Abraham.
Luk3:10 And the people put questions to him, saying, What have we to do?
Luk3:12 Then tax-farmers came to him for baptism and said to him, Master, what have we to do?
Luk3:14 And men of the army put questions to him, saying, And what have we to do? And he said to them, Do no violent acts to any man, and do not take anything without right, and let your payment be enough for you.
Luk3:16 John made answer, saying to them all, Truly, I give you baptism with water, but one is coming who is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo: he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit, and with fire:
Luk3:18 And so comforting them with these and other words, he gave the good news to the people;
Luk4:11 And, In their hands they will keep you up, so that your foot may not be crushed against a stone.
Luk4:21 Then he said to them, Today this word has come true in your hearing.
Luk4:23 And he said to them, Without doubt you will say to me, Let the medical man make himself well: the things which to our knowledge were done at Capernaum, do them here in your country.
Luk4:24 And he said to them, Truly I say to you, No prophet is honoured in his country.
Luk4:25 Truly I say to you, There were a number of widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up for three years and six months and there was no food in the land;
Luk4:26 But Elijah was not sent to one of them, but only to Zarephath, in the land of Sidon, to a woman who was a widow.
Luk4:29 And they got up and took him out of the town to the edge of the mountain on which their town was, so that they might send him down to his death.
Luk4:30 But he came through them and went on his way.
Luk4:32 And they were surprised at his teaching, for his word was with authority.
Luk4:34 Let us be! what have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? have you come to put an end to us? I have knowledge who you are, the Holy One of God.
Luk4:39 He went near her, and with a sharp word he gave orders to the disease and it went away from her; and straight away she got up and took care of their needs.
Luk4:40 And at sundown all those who had anyone ill with any sort of disease, took them to him, and he put his hands on every one of them and made them well.
Luk4:41 And evil spirits came out of a number of them, crying out and saying, You are the Son of God. But he gave them sharp orders not to say a word, because they had knowledge that he was the Christ.
Luk4:42 And when it was day, he came out and went to a waste place; and great numbers of people came looking for him, and they came to him and would have kept him from going away.
Luk4:43 But he said to them, I have to give the good news of the kingdom of God in other towns, because that is why I was sent.
Luk5:5 And Simon, answering, said, Master, we were working all night and we took nothing: but at your word I will let down the nets.
Luk5:6 And when they had done this, they got such a great number of fish that it seemed as if their nets would be broken;
Luk5:7 And they made signs to their friends in the other boat to come to their help. And they came, and the two boats were so full that they were going down.
Luk5:11 And when they had got their boats to the land, they gave up everything and went after him.
Luk5:15 But news of him went out all the more, in every direction, and great numbers of people came together to give hearing to his words and to be made well from their diseases.
Luk5:17 And it came about that on one of these days he was teaching; and some Pharisees and teachers of the law were seated there, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judaea and from Jerusalem; and the power of the Lord was with him, to make those who were ill free from their diseases.
Luk5:20 And seeing their faith he said, Man, you have forgiveness for your sins.
Luk5:22 But Jesus, who had knowledge of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning in your hearts?
Luk5:24 But so that you may see that on earth the Son of man has authority for the forgiveness of sins, (he said to the man who was ill,) I say to you, Get up, and take up your bed, and go into your house.
Luk5:26 And wonder overcame them all, and they gave glory to God; and they were full of fear, saying, We have seen strange things today.
Luk5:29 And Levi made a great feast for him in his house: and a great number of tax-farmers and others were seated at table with them.
Luk5:30 And the Pharisees and their scribes made protests against his disciples, saying, Why do you take food and drink with tax-farmers and sinners?
Luk5:31 And Jesus, answering, said to them, Those who are well have no need of a medical man, but those who are ill.
Luk5:33 And they said to him, The disciples of John frequently go without food, and make prayers, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees; but your disciples take food and drink.
Luk5:34 And Jesus said, Are you able to make the friends of the newly-married man go without food when he is with them?
Luk5:35 But the days will come when he will be taken away from them, and then they will go without food.
Luk5:36 And he said to them, in a story, No man takes a bit of cloth from a new coat and puts it on to an old coat, for so the new coat would be damaged and the bit from the new would not go well with the old.
Luk6:2 But some of the Pharisees said, Why do you do what it is not right to do on the Sabbath?
Luk6:3 And Jesus said, Have you not seen in the Writings what David did when he was in need of food, he, and those who were with him;
Luk6:5 And he said, The Son of man is lord even of the Sabbath.
Luk6:8 But he had knowledge of their thoughts; and he said to the man whose hand was dead, Get up and come into the middle. And he got up and came forward.
Luk6:9 And Jesus said, I put the question to you, Is it right to do good on the Sabbath or to do evil? to give life or to take it away?
Luk6:10 And looking round on all of them, he said to him, Put out your hand. And he did so: and his hand was made well.
Luk6:11 But they were full of wrath, and were talking together about what they might do to Jesus.
Luk6:13 And the day came and, turning to his disciples, he made a selection from among them of twelve, to whom he gave the name of Apostles;
Luk6:17 And he came down with them to a level place, and a great band of his disciples, and a very great number of people from all Judaea and Jerusalem and from the parts of Tyre and Sidon by the sea, came to give hearing to him, and to be made well from their diseases;
Luk6:19 And all the people were desiring to be touched by him, for power came from him and made them all well.
Luk6:20 And turning his eyes to his disciples he said, Happy are you who are poor: for the kingdom of God is yours.
Luk6:21 Happy are you who are in need of food now: for you will be made full. Happy are you who are weeping now; for you will be glad.
Luk6:22 Happy are you, when men have hate for you, and put you away from among them and say angry words to you, turning away in disgust at your name, because of the Son of man.
Luk6:23 Be glad in that day, and be lifted up for joy, for your reward in heaven will be great: for their fathers did these same things to the prophets.
Luk6:24 But unhappy are you who have wealth: for you have been comforted now.
Luk6:25 Unhappy are you who are full of food now: for you will be in need. Unhappy are you who are laughing now: for you will be crying in sorrow.
Luk6:26 Unhappy are you when all men give you their approval: for so their fathers did to the false prophets.
Luk6:27 But I say to you who give ear to me, Have love for those who are against you, do good to those who have hate for you,
Luk6:28 Give blessing to those who give you curses, say prayers for those who are cruel to you.
Luk6:31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.
Luk6:32 If you have love for those who have love for you, what credit is it to you? for even sinners have love for those who have love for them.
Luk6:33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is it to you? for even sinners do the same.
Luk6:34 And if you let those have the use of your money, from whom you are hoping to get it back, what credit is it to you? even sinners do so to sinners, hoping to get back as much as they gave.
Luk6:35 But be loving to those who are against you and do them good, and give them your money, not giving up hope, and your reward will be great and you will be the sons of the Most High: for he is kind to evil men, and to those who have hard hearts.
Luk6:36 Be full of pity, even as your Father is full of pity.
Luk6:37 Be not judges of others, and you will not be judged: do not give punishment to others, and you will not get punishment yourselves: make others free, and you will be made free:
Luk6:38 Give, and it will be given to you; good measure, crushed down, full and running over, they will give to you. For in the same measure as you give, it will be given to you again.
Luk6:39 And he gave them teaching in the form of a story, saying, Is it possible for one blind man to be guide to another? will they not go falling together into a hole?
Luk6:46 Why do you say to me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
Luk6:47 Everyone who comes to me and gives ear to my words and does them, I will make clear to you what he is like:
Luk7:4 And they, when they came to Jesus, made their request warmly, saying,
Luk7:5 It is right for you to do this for him, because he is a friend to our nation, and himself has put up a Synagogue for us.
Luk7:6 And Jesus went with them. And when he was not far from the house, the man sent friends to him, saying, Lord, do not give yourself trouble: for I am not important enough for you to come into my house:
Luk7:9 And when these things were said to Jesus, he was surprised, and, turning to the mass of people coming after him, said, I have not seen such great faith, no, not in Israel.
Luk7:16 And fear came on all, and they gave praise to God, saying, A great prophet is among us: and, God has given thought to his people.
Luk7:19 Then John sent two of his disciples to the Lord, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?
Luk7:20 And when the men came to him they said, John the Baptist has sent us to you, saying, Are you he who is to come, or are we waiting for another?
Luk7:22 And answering them he said, Go back and give news to John of what you have seen, and the things which have come to your ears; the blind now see, those who had no power in their legs are walking, lepers are made clean, those who had no hearing now have their ears open, dead men come to life again, and the poor have the good news given to them.
Luk7:24 And when the men who were sent by John had gone away, he said to the people, about John, What did you go out into the waste land to see? a tall stem moving in the wind?
Luk7:25 But what did you go out to see? a man in soft clothing? See now, those who have beautiful clothing and delicate food are in kings' houses.
Luk7:26 But what did you go out to see? a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and more than a prophet.
Luk7:28 I say to you, Among all the sons of women, not one is greater than John: but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
Luk7:31 What comparison am I to make of the men of this generation? what are they like?
Luk7:32 They are like children who are seated in the market-place, crying out to one another, and saying, We made music for you, but you did not take part in the dance; we gave cries of sorrow, but you were not sad.
Luk7:33 For John the Baptist came, taking no food or drink, and you say, He has an evil spirit.
Luk7:34 The Son of man came feasting, and you say, Here is a lover of food and wine, a friend of tax-farmers and sinners.
Luk7:42 When they were unable to make payment, he made the two of them free of their debts. Which of them, now, will have the greater love for him?
Luk8:10 And he said, To you is given knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of God; but to the others, they are given in stories, so that seeing, they may not see, and though they give hearing, the sense will not be clear to them.
Luk8:12 Those by the side of the road are those who have given hearing; then the Evil One comes and takes away the word from their hearts, so that they may not have faith and get salvation.
Luk8:18 So take care how you give hearing, for to him who has will be given, and from him who has not will be taken even what he seems to have.
Luk8:22 Now it came about on one of those days that he got into a boat with his disciples; and he said to them, Let us go over to the other side of the water: and they put out the boat.
Luk8:24 Then they came to him and, awaking him out of his sleep, said, Master, Master, destruction is near. And he, when he was awake, gave orders to the wind and the rolling waves, and the storm came to an end, and all was calm.
Luk8:25 And he said to them, Where is your faith? And fear and wonder overcame them, and they said to one another, Who then is this, who gives orders even to the winds and the water and they do what he says?
Luk8:26 And they came to the country of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee.
Luk8:31 And they made a request to him that he would not give them an order to go away into the deep.
Luk8:32 Now there was a great herd of pigs in that place, getting food on the mountain: and the evil spirits made a request to him that he would let them go into the pigs, and he let them.
Luk8:35 And they went out to see what had taken place, and they came to Jesus and saw the man out of whom the evil spirits had gone, seated, clothed and with full use of his senses, at the feet of Jesus; and fear came on them.
Luk8:36 And those who had seen it gave them an account of how the man who had the evil spirits was made well.
Luk8:37 And all the people of the country of the Gerasenes made a request to him to go away from them; for they were in great fear: and he got into a boat and went back.
Luk8:40 And when Jesus went back, the people were glad to see him, for they were all waiting for him.
Luk8:53 And they were laughing at him, being certain that she was dead.
Luk8:56 And her father and mother were full of wonder, but he gave orders to them to say nothing about it to anyone.
Luk9:1 And getting the twelve together, he gave them power and authority over all evil spirits and over diseases, to make them well.
Luk9:2 And he sent them out to be preachers of the kingdom of God, and to make well those who were ill.
Luk9:3 And he said to them, Take nothing for your journey, no stick or bag or bread or money, and do not take two coats.
Luk9:5 And if any people will not take you in, when you go away from that town, put off its dust from your feet for a witness against them.
Luk9:10 And the twelve, when they came back, gave him an account of what they had done. And he took them with him and went away from the people to a town named Beth-saida.
Luk9:11 But the people, getting news of it, went after him: and he was pleased to see them, and gave them teaching about the kingdom of God, and made those well who were in need of it.
Luk9:12 And the day went on; and the twelve came to him and said, Send these people away so that they may go into the towns and the country round about and get resting-places and food for themselves, for we are in a waste place.
Luk9:13 But he said, Give them food yourselves. And they said, We have only five cakes of bread and two fishes, if we do not go and get food for all these people.
Luk9:14 For there were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them be seated in groups, about fifty to a group.
Luk9:17 And they all took the food and had enough; and they took up of the broken bits which were over, twelve baskets full.
Luk9:18 And it came about that when he was in prayer, by himself, and the disciples were with him, he put a question to them, saying, Who do the people say I am?
Luk9:19 And they, answering, said, John the Baptist; but others say Elijah; and others, that one of the old prophets has come back.
Luk9:20 And he said, But who do you say that I am? And Peter, answering, said, The Christ of God.
Luk9:21 But he gave them special orders, not to say this to any man;
Luk9:27 But truly I say to you, Some of those who are here now will have no taste of death till they see the kingdom of God.
Luk9:31 Who were seen in glory and were talking of his death which was about to take place in Jerusalem.
Luk9:33 And when they were about to go away from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah: having no knowledge of what he was saying.
Luk9:34 And while he said these things, the shade of a cloud came over them, and they were full of fear when they went into the cloud.
Luk9:35 And there was a voice from the cloud saying, This is my Son, the man of my selection; give ear to him.
Luk9:37 And on the day after, when they came down from the mountain, a great band of people came to him.
Luk9:40 And I made a request to your disciples to send it out of him, but they were not able to do it.
Luk9:41 And Jesus said, O generation without faith and false in heart, how long will I have to be with you and put up with you? let your son come here.
Luk9:44 Let these words go deep into your ears, for the Son of man will be given up into the hands of men.
Luk9:45 But this saying was not clear to them and its sense was kept secret from them so that they were not able to see it: and they had fear of questioning him about it.
Luk9:47 But when Jesus saw the reasoning of their hearts, he took a small child and put him by his side,
Luk9:48 And said to them, Whoever gives honour to this child in my name, gives honour to me: and whoever gives honour to me, gives honour to him who sent me: for whoever is least among you all, that man is great.
Luk9:49 And John, answering, said, Master, we saw a man driving out evil spirits in your name, and we did not let him do it, because he was not one of us.
Luk9:50 But Jesus said to him, Let him do it, for he who is not against you is for you.
Luk9:52 And he sent men before: and they came to a small town of Samaria to make ready for him.
Luk9:54 And when his disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, Lord, may we send fire from heaven and put an end to them?
Luk9:55 But turning round he said sharp words to them.
Luk9:57 And when they were on the way, a certain man said to him, I will come after you wherever you go.
Luk9:60 But he said to him, Let the dead take care of their dead; it is for you to go and give news of the kingdom of God.
Luk10:1 Now after these things, the Lord made selection of seventy others and sent them before him, two together, into every town and place where he himself was about to come.
Luk10:2 And he said to them, There is much grain ready to be cut, but not enough workers: so make prayer to the Lord of the grain-fields that he will send workers to get in the grain.
Luk10:3 Go on your way: see, I send you out like lambs among wolves.
Luk10:6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will be with him: but if not, it will come back to you again.
Luk10:7 And keep in that same house, taking what food and drink they give you: for the worker has a right to his reward. Do not go from house to house.
Luk10:8 And into whatever town you go, if they take you in, take whatever food is given to you:
Luk10:9 And make well those in it who are ill and say to them, The kingdom of God is near to you.
Luk10:10 But if you go into a town where they will not have you, go out into the streets of it and say,
Luk10:11 Even the dust of your town, which is on our feet, we put off as a witness against you; but be certain of this, that the kingdom of God is near.
Luk10:12 I say to you, It will be better in that day for Sodom than for that town.
Luk10:13 A curse is on you, Chorazin! A curse is on you, Beth-saida! For if such works of power had been done in Tyre and Sidon as have been done in you, they would have been turned from their sins, in days gone by, seated in the dust.
Luk10:14 But it will be better for Tyre and Sidon, in the day of judging, than for you.
Luk10:16 Whoever gives ear to you, gives ear to me; and whoever is against you, is against me; and whoever is against me, is against him who sent me.
Luk10:17 And the seventy came back with joy, saying, Lord, even the evil spirits are under our power in your name.
Luk10:18 And he said, I was watching for Satan, falling from heaven like a star.
Luk10:19 See, I have given you power to put your feet on snakes and evil beasts, and over all the strength of him who is against you: and nothing will do you damage.
Luk10:20 Do not be glad, however, because you have power over spirits, but because your names are recorded in heaven.
Luk10:23 And, turning to the disciples, he said privately, Happy are the eyes which see the things you see:
Luk10:24 For I say to you that numbers of prophets and kings have had a desire to see the things which you see, and have not seen them, and to have knowledge of the things which have come to your ears, and they had it not.
Luk10:30 And Jesus, answering him, said, A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he got into the hands of thieves, who took his clothing and gave him cruel blows, and when they went away, he was half dead.
Luk10:38 Now, while they were on their way, he came to a certain town; and a woman named Martha took him into her house.
Luk11:1 And it came about that he was in prayer in a certain place, and when he came to an end, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, will you give us teaching about prayer, as John did to his disciples?
Luk11:2 And he said to them, When you say your prayers, say, Father, may your name be kept holy and your kingdom come.
Luk11:3 Give us every day bread for our needs.
Luk11:4 May we have forgiveness for our sins, as we make free all those who are in debt to us. And let us not be put to the test.
Luk11:5 And he said to them, Which of you, having a friend, would go to him in the middle of the night and say to him, Friend, let me have three cakes of bread;
Luk11:7 And he, from inside the house, would say in answer, Do not be a trouble to me; the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; it is not possible for me to get up and give to you?
Luk11:8 I say to you, Though he will not get up and give to him, because he is his friend, still, if he keeps on making his request, he will get up and give him as much as he has need of.
Luk11:9 And I say to you, Make requests, and they will be answered; what you are searching for, you will get; when you give the sign, the door will be open to you.
Luk11:11 And which of you, being a father, will give a stone to his son, who makes request for bread? or for a fish, will give him a snake?
Luk11:13 If, then, you who are evil are able to give good things to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who make request to him?
Luk11:17 But he, having knowledge of their thoughts, said to them, Every kingdom in which there is division is made waste; and a house in which there is division comes to destruction.
Luk11:18 If, then, Satan is at war with himself, how will he keep his kingdom? because you say that I send evil spirits out of men by the help of Beelzebul.
Luk11:19 And if I, by Beelzebul, send out evil spirits, by whose help do your sons send them out? so let them be your judges.
Luk11:20 But if I, by the finger of God, send out evil spirits, then the kingdom of God has overtaken you.
Luk11:29 And when a great number of people came together to him, he said, This generation is an evil generation: it is looking for a sign and no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah.
Luk11:39 And the Lord said to him, You Pharisees make the outside of the cup and the plate clean; but inside you are thieves and full of evil.
Luk11:41 But if you give to the poor such things as you are able, then all things are clean to you.
Luk11:42 But a curse is on you, Pharisees! for you make men give a tenth of every sort of plant, and give no thought to right and the love of God; but it is right for you to do these things, and not let the others be undone.
Luk11:43 A curse is on you, Pharisees! for your desires are for the most important seats in the Synagogues and for words of respect said to you in the market-place.
Luk11:44 A curse is on you! for you are like the resting-places of dead men, which are not seen, and men go walking over them without knowledge of it.
Luk11:45 And one of the teachers of the law, answering, said to him, Master, in saying this, you give a bad name to us as to them.
Luk11:46 And he said, A curse is on you, teachers of the law! for while other men are crushed under the weight of the rules you make for them, you yourselves do not put so much as one finger to them.
Luk11:47 A curse is on you! for you make resting-places for the bodies of the prophets, but your fathers put them to death.
Luk11:48 So you are witnesses and give approval to the work of your fathers; for they put them to death and you make their last resting-places.
Luk11:49 For this reason the wisdom of God has said, I will send them prophets and teachers, and to some of them they will give death and cruel pains;
Luk11:51 From the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who was put to death between the altar and the Temple. Yes, I say to you, It will come on this generation.
Luk11:52 A curse is on you, teachers of the law! for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you did not go in yourselves, and you got in the way of those who were going in.
Luk12:1 At that time, when thousands of the people had come together, in such numbers that they were crushing one another, he said first to his disciples, Have nothing to do with the leaven of the Pharisees, which is deceit.
Luk12:3 So, whatever you have said in the dark, will come to men's hearing in the light, and what you have said secretly inside the house, will be made public from the house-tops.
Luk12:4 And I say to you, my friends, Have no fear of those who may put the body to death, and are able to do no more than that.
Luk12:5 But I will make clear to you of whom you are to be in fear: of him who after death has power to send you to hell; yes, truly I say, Have fear of him.
Luk12:7 But even the hairs of your head are numbered. Have no fear: you are of more value than a flock of sparrows.
Luk12:8 And I say to you that to everyone who gives witness to me before men, the Son of man will give witness before the angels of God.
Luk12:11 And when they take you before the Synagogues and the authorities and the rulers, take no thought about what answers you will give, or what you will say:
Luk12:12 For the Holy Spirit will make clear to you in that very hour what to say.
Luk12:14 But he said, Man, who made me a judge or a maker of decisions for you?
Luk12:15 And he said to them, Take care to keep yourselves free from the desire for property; for a man's life is not made up of the number of things which he has.
Luk12:16 And he said to them, in a story, The land of a certain man of great wealth was very fertile:
Luk12:22 And he said to his disciples, For this reason I say to you, Take no thought for your life, about what food you will take, or for your body, how it may be clothed.
Luk12:24 Give thought to the ravens; they do not put seeds into the earth, or get together grain; they have no store-houses or buildings; and God gives them their food: of how much greater value are you than the birds!
Luk12:25 And which of you by taking thought is able to make himself any taller?
Luk12:26 If, then, you are not able to do even that which is least, why are you troubled about the rest?
Luk12:27 Give thought to the flowers: they do no work, they make no thread; and still I say to you, Even Solomon, in all his glory, was not clothed like one of these.
Luk12:28 But if God gives such clothing to the grass in the field, which today is living, and tomorrow will be burned in the oven, how much more will he give clothing to you, O men of little faith?
Luk12:29 And do not give overmuch thought to your food and drink, and let not your mind be full of doubts.
Luk12:30 For the nations of the world go in search of all these things: but your Father has knowledge that you have need of them.
Luk12:31 But let your chief care be for his kingdom, and these other things will be given to you in addition.
Luk12:32 Have no fear, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
Luk12:33 Give what property you have in exchange for money, and give the money to the poor; make for yourselves money-bags which will not get old, wealth stored up in heaven which will be yours for ever, where thieves will not come nor worms put it to destruction.
Luk12:34 For where your wealth is, there will your heart be.
Luk12:35 Be ready, dressed as for a journey, with your lights burning.
Luk12:37 Happy are those servants who are watching when the lord comes; truly I say to you, he will make himself their servant and, placing them at the table, he will come out and give them food.
Luk12:39 But be certain of this, that if the master of the house had had knowledge of the time when the thief was coming, he would have been watching, and would not have let his house be broken into.
Luk12:40 So be ready: for the Son of man is coming at a time when you are not looking for him.
Luk12:41 And Peter said to him, Lord, are these words said to us only, or to all men?
Luk12:42 And the Lord said, Who then is the wise and responsible servant whom his lord will put in control of his family, to give them their food at the right time?
Luk12:44 Truly I say to you, he will put him in control of all his goods.
Luk12:51 Is it your opinion that I have come to give peace on earth? I say to you, No, but division:
Luk12:54 Then he said to the people, When you see a cloud coming up in the west, straight away you say, There will be rain; and so it is.
Luk12:56 O false ones! the face of the earth and the heaven is clear to you; how is it that the signs of these times are not as clear to you?
Luk12:57 And why are you, in your hearts, unable to be judges of what is right?
Luk13:1 Now some people who were there at that time, gave him an account of how the blood of some Galilaeans had been mixed by Pilate with their offerings.
Luk13:2 And he, in answer, said to them, Are you of the opinion that these Galilaeans were worse than all other Galilaeans, because these things were done to them?
Luk13:3 I say to you, It is not so: but if your hearts are not changed, you will all come to the same end.
Luk13:4 Or those eighteen men who were crushed by the fall of the tower of Siloam, were they worse than all the other men living in Jerusalem?
Luk13:5 I say to you, It is not so: but if your hearts are not changed, you will all come to an end in the same way.
Luk13:15 But the Lord gave him an answer and said, O you false men! do you not, every one of you, on the Sabbath, let loose his ox and his ass and take it to the water?
Luk13:24 Do your best to go in by the narrow door, for I say to you, A number will make the attempt to go in, but will not be able to do so.
Luk13:25 When the master of the house has got up, and the door has been shut, and you, still outside, give blows on the door, saying, Lord, let us in; he will make answer and say, I have no knowledge of where you come from.
Luk13:26 Then you will say, We have taken food and drink with you, and you were teaching in our streets.
Luk13:27 But he will say, Truly, I have no knowledge of you or where you come from; go away from me, you workers of evil.
Luk13:28 There will be weeping and cries of sorrow when you see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves are shut outside.
Luk13:32 And he said, Go and say to that fox, I send out evil spirits and do works of mercy today and tomorrow, and on the third day my work will be complete.
Luk13:34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, putting to death the prophets, and stoning those who were sent to her! again and again would I have taken your children to myself, as a bird takes her young ones under her wings, but you would not!
Luk13:35 Now see, your house is waste, and I say to you, You will not see me again till you say, A blessing on him who comes in the name of the Lord.
Luk14:1 And it came about that when he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees on the Sabbath, to have a meal, they were watching him.
Luk14:4 But they said nothing. And he made him well and sent him away.
Luk14:5 And he said to them, Which of you, whose ox or ass has got into a water-hole, will not straight away get him out on the Sabbath?
Luk14:6 And they had no answer to that question.
Luk14:7 And he gave teaching in the form of a story to the guests who came to the feast, when he saw how they took the best seats; saying to them,
Luk14:9 And then the giver of the feast will come to you and say, Give your place to this man; and you, with shame, will have to take the lowest seat.
Luk14:12 And he said to the master of the house, When you give a feast, do not send for your friends and your brothers and your family or your neighbours who have wealth, for they may give a feast for you, and so you will get a reward.
Luk14:14 And you will have a blessing, because they will not be able to give you any payment, and you will get your reward when the upright come back from the dead.
Luk14:24 For I say to you that not one of those who were requested to come will have a taste of my feast.
Luk14:25 Now a great number of people went with him.
Luk14:28 For which of you, desiring to put up a tower, does not first give much thought to the price, if he will have enough to make it complete?
Luk14:33 And so whoever is not ready to give up all he has may not be my disciple.
Luk15:2 And the Pharisees and scribes were angry, saying, This man gives approval to sinners, and takes food with them.
Luk15:4 What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if one of them gets loose and goes away, will not let the ninety-nine be in the waste land by themselves, and go after the wandering one, till he sees where it is?
Luk15:6 And when he gets back to his house, he sends for his neighbours and friends, saying to them, Be glad with me, for I have got back my sheep which had gone away.
Luk15:7 I say to you that even so there will be more joy in heaven when one sinner is turned away from his wrongdoing, than for ninety-nine good men, who have no need of a change of heart.
Luk15:9 And when she has it again, she gets her friends and neighbours together, saying, Be glad with me, for I have got back the bit of silver which had gone from me.
Luk15:10 Even so, I say to you, There is joy among the angels of God, when one sinner is turned away from his wrongdoing.
Luk15:12 And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me that part of your property which will be mine. And he made division of his goods between them.
Luk15:23 And get the fat young ox and put it to death, and let us have a feast, and be glad.
Luk15:24 For this, my son, who was dead, is living again; he had gone away from me, and has come back. And they were full of joy.
Luk15:32 But it was right to be glad and to have a feast; for this your brother, who was dead, is living again; he had gone away and has come back.
Luk16:4 I have come to a decision what to do, so that when I am put out of my position they will take me into their houses.
Luk16:9 And I say to you, Make friends for yourselves through the wealth of this life, so that when it comes to an end, you may be taken into the eternal resting-places.
Luk16:11 If, then, you have not been true in your use of the wealth of this life, who will give into your care the true wealth?
Luk16:12 And if you have not been true in your care of the property of other people, who will give you that which is yours?
Luk16:13 No man may be a servant to two masters: for he will have hate for the one and love for the other; or he will keep to the one and have no respect for the other. You may not be servants of God and of wealth.
Luk16:14 And the Pharisees, who had a great love of money, hearing these things, were making sport of him.
Luk16:15 And he said, You take care to seem right in the eyes of men, but God sees your hearts: and those things which are important in the opinion of men, are evil in the eyes of God.
Luk16:26 And in addition, there is a deep division fixed between us and you, so that those who might go from here to you are not able to do so, and no one may come from you to us.
Luk16:28 For I have five brothers; and let him give them an account of these things, so that they may not come to this place of pain.
Luk16:29 But Abraham said, They have Moses and the prophets; let them give ear to what they say.
Luk16:30 And he said, No, father Abraham, but if someone went to them from the dead, their hearts would be changed.
Luk16:31 And he said to him, If they will not give attention to Moses and the prophets, they will not be moved even if someone comes back from the dead.
Luk17:3 Give attention to yourselves: if your brother does wrong, say a sharp word to him; and if he has sorrow for his sin, let him have forgiveness.
Luk17:5 And the twelve said to the Lord, Make our faith greater.
Luk17:6 And the Lord said, If your faith was only as great as a grain of mustard seed, you might say to this tree, Be rooted up and planted in the sea; and it would be done.
Luk17:7 But which of you, having a servant who is ploughing or keeping sheep, will say to him, when he comes in from the field, Come now and be seated and have a meal,
Luk17:10 In the same way, when you have done all the things which are given you to do, say, There is no profit in us, for we have only done what we were ordered to do.
Luk17:13 Said, in loud voices, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
Luk17:14 And when he saw them he said, Go, and let the priests see you. And, while they were going, they were made clean.
Luk17:21 And men will not say, See, it is here! or, There! for the kingdom of God is among you.
Luk17:22 And he said to his disciples, The time will come when you will have a great desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, but you will not see it.
Luk17:23 And if they say to you, See, it is there! or, It is here! do not go away, or go after them.
Luk17:27 They were feasting and taking wives and getting married, till the day of the overflowing of the waters, when Noah went into the ark, and they all came to destruction.
Luk17:29 But on the day when Lot went out of Sodom, fire came down from heaven and destruction came on them all.
Luk17:32 Keep in mind Lot's wife.
Luk17:34 I say to you, In that night there will be two men sleeping in one bed, and one will be taken away and the other let go.
Luk18:6 And the Lord said, Give ear to the words of the evil judge.
Luk18:7 And will not God do right in the cause of his saints, whose cries come day and night to his ears, though he is long in doing it?
Luk18:8 I say to you that he will quickly do right in their cause. But when the Son of man comes, will there be any faith on earth?
Luk18:14 I say to you, This man went back to his house with God's approval, and not the other: for everyone who makes himself high will be made low and whoever makes himself low will be made high.
Luk18:15 And they took their children to him, so that he might put his hands on them: but when the disciples saw it, they said sharp words to them
Luk18:16 But Jesus sent for them, saying, Let the children come to me, and do not keep them away, for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
Luk18:17 Truly I say to you, Whoever does not put himself under the kingdom of God like a little child, will not come into it at all.
Luk18:28 And Peter said, See, we have given up what is ours to come after you.
Luk18:29 And he said to them, Truly I say to you, There is no man who has given up house or wife or brothers or father or mother or children, because of the kingdom of God,
Luk18:31 And he took with him the twelve and said to them, Now we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things which were said by the prophets will be done to the Son of man.
Luk18:32 For he will be given up to the Gentiles, and will be made sport of and put to shame:
Luk18:34 But they did not take in the sense of any of these words, and what he said was not clear to them, and their minds were not able to see it.
Luk18:37 And they said to him, Jesus of Nazareth is going by.
Luk19:11 And while they were giving ear to these words, he made another story for them, because he was near Jerusalem, and because they were of the opinion that the kingdom of God was coming straight away.
Luk19:13 And he sent for ten of his servants and gave them ten pounds and said to them, Do business with this till I come.
Luk19:14 But his people had no love for him, and sent representatives after him, saying, We will not have this man for our ruler.
Luk19:15 And when he came back again, having got his kingdom, he gave orders for those servants to whom he had given the money to come to him, so that he might have an account of what business they had done.
Luk19:25 And they say to him, Lord, he has ten pounds.
Luk19:26 And I say to you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.
Luk19:27 And as for those who were against me, who would not have me for their ruler, let them come here, and be put to death before me.
Luk19:30 Saying, Go into the little town in front of you, and on going in you will see a young ass fixed with a cord, on which no man has ever been seated; let him loose and take him.
Luk19:31 And if anyone says to you, Why are you taking him? say, The Lord has need of him.
Luk19:33 And when they were getting the young ass, the owners of it said to them, Why are you taking the young ass?
Luk19:34 And they said, The Lord has need of him.
Luk19:35 And they took him to Jesus, and they put their clothing on the ass, and Jesus got on to him.
Luk19:40 And he said in answer, I say to you, if these men keep quiet, the very stones will be crying out.
Luk19:46 Saying to them, It has been said, My house is to be a house of prayer, but you have made it a hole of thieves.
Luk20:2 That the chief priests and the scribes and the rulers of the people came to him and said, Make clear to us by what authority you do these things and who gave you this authority.
Luk20:3 And in answer he said to them, I will put a question to you, and do you give me an answer:
Luk20:5 And they said among themselves, If we say, From heaven; he will say, Why did you not have faith in him?
Luk20:6 But if we say, Of men; we will be stoned by the people, for they are certain that John was a prophet.
Luk20:8 And Jesus said, And I will not make clear to you by what authority I do these things.
Luk20:10 And at the right time he sent a servant to the workers to get part of the fruit from the vines; but the workmen gave him blows and sent him away with nothing.
Luk20:11 And he sent another servant, and they gave blows to him in the same way, and put shame on him, and sent him away with nothing.
Luk20:12 And he sent a third, and they gave him wounds and put him out.
Luk20:13 And the lord of the garden said, What am I to do? I will send my dearly loved son; they may give respect to him.
Luk20:14 But when the workmen saw him, they said to one another, This is he who will one day be the owner of the property: let us put him to death and the heritage will be ours.
Luk20:15 And driving him out of the garden they put him to death. Now what will the lord do to these workmen?
Luk20:17 But he, looking on them, said, Is it not in the Writings, The stone which the builders put on one side, the same has become the chief stone of the building?
Luk20:19 And the chief priests and the scribes made attempts to get their hands on him in that very hour; and they were in fear of the people, for they saw that he had made up this story against them.
Luk20:21 And they put a question to him, saying, Master, we are certain that your teaching and your words are right, and that you have no respect for a man's position, but you are teaching the true way of God:
Luk20:22 Is it right for us to make payment of taxes to Caesar or not?
Luk20:23 But he saw through their trick and said to them,
Luk20:24 Let me see a penny. Whose image and name are on it? And they said, Caesar's.
Luk20:26 And they were not able to get anything from these words before the people: but they were full of wonder at his answer, and said nothing.
Luk20:28 Master, Moses said that if a man's brother comes to his end, having a wife, but no children, his brother is to take the wife, and get a family for his brother.
Luk20:33 When they come back from the dead, whose wife will she be? for all the seven had her.
Luk20:36 And death has no more power over them, for they are equal to the angels, and are sons of God, being of those who will come back from the dead.
Luk20:40 And they had fear of putting any more questions to him.
Luk20:41 And he said to them, Why do they say that the Christ is the son of David?
Luk20:46 Keep away from the scribes, whose pleasure it is to go about in long robes, and to have words of respect said to them in the market-places, and to take the chief seats in the Synagogues and the first places at feasts;
Luk20:47 Who take the property of widows and before the eyes of men make long prayers; they will get a greater punishment.
Luk21:3 And he said, Truly I say to you, This poor widow has given more than all of them:
Luk21:6 As for these things which you see, the days will come when not one stone will be resting on another, but all will be broken down.
Luk21:7 And they said to him, Master, when will these things be? and what sign will there be when these events are to take place?
Luk21:8 And he said, Take care that you are not tricked: for a number of people will come in my name, saying, I am he; and, The time is near: do not go after them.
Luk21:9 And when news of wars and troubled times comes to your ears, have no fear; for these things have to be, but the end will not be now.
Luk21:10 Then he said to them, Nation will be moved against nation and kingdom against kingdom:
Luk21:12 But before all this, they will take you and be very cruel to you, giving you up to the Synagogues and to prisons, taking you before kings and rulers, because of my name.
Luk21:13 And it will be turned to a witness for you.
Luk21:14 So take care not to be troubled before the time comes, about what answers you will give:
Luk21:15 For I will give you words and wisdom, so that not one of those who are against you will be able to get the better of you, or to put you in the wrong.
Luk21:16 But you will be given up even by your fathers and mothers, your brothers and relations and friends; and some of you will be put to death.
Luk21:17 And you will be hated by all men, because of me.
Luk21:18 But not a hair of your head will come to destruction.
Luk21:19 By going through all these things, you will keep your lives.
Luk21:20 But when you see armies all round about Jerusalem, then be certain that her destruction is near.
Luk21:24 And they will be put to death with the sword, and will be taken as prisoners into all the nations; and Jerusalem will be crushed under the feet of the Gentiles, till the times of the Gentiles are complete.
Luk21:27 And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud, with power and great glory.
Luk21:28 But when these things come about, let your heads be lifted up, because your salvation is near.
Luk21:29 And he made a story for them: See the fig-tree, and all the trees;
Luk21:31 In the same way, when you see these things taking place you may be certain that the kingdom of God is near.
Luk21:32 Truly I say to you, This generation will not come to an end till all things are complete.
Luk21:34 But give attention to yourselves, for fear that your hearts become over-full of the pleasures of food and wine, and the cares of this life, and that day may come on you suddenly, and take you as in a net:
Luk21:36 But keep watch at all times with prayer, that you may be strong enough to come through all these things and take your place before the Son of man.
Luk22:2 And the chief priests and the scribes were looking for a chance to put him to death, but they went in fear of the people.
Luk22:4 And he went away and had a discussion with the chief priests and the rulers, about how he might give him up to them.
Luk22:5 And they were glad, and undertook to give him money.
Luk22:6 And he made an agreement with them to give him up to them, if he got a chance, when the people were not present.
Luk22:8 And Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make the Passover ready for us, so that we may take it.
Luk22:9 And they said to him, Where are we to get it ready?
Luk22:10 And he said to them, When you go into the town you will see a man coming to you with a vessel of water; go after him into the house into which he goes.
Luk22:12 And he will take you up to a great room with a table and seats: there make ready.
Luk22:13 And they went, and it was as he had said: and they made the Passover ready.
Luk22:15 And he said, I have had a great desire to keep this Passover with you before I come to my death;
Luk22:16 For I say to you, I will not take it till it is made complete in the kingdom of God.
Luk22:17 And he took a cup and, having given praise, he said, Make division of this among yourselves;
Luk22:18 For I say to you, I will not take of the fruit of the vine till the kingdom of God has come.
Luk22:19 And he took bread and, having given praise, he gave it to them when it had been broken, saying, This is my body, which is given for you: do this in memory of me.
Luk22:20 And in the same way, after the meal, he took the cup, saying, This cup is the new testament, made with my blood which is given for you.
Luk22:23 And they were wondering among themselves which of them it was who would do this thing.
Luk22:24 And there was an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.
Luk22:25 And he said, The kings of the Gentiles are lords over them, and those who have authority are given names of honour.
Luk22:26 But let it not be so with you; but he who is greater, let him become like the younger; and he who is chief, like a servant.
Luk22:27 For which is greater, the guest who is seated at a meal or the servant who is waiting on him? is it not the guest? but I am among you as a servant.
Luk22:28 But you are those who have kept with me through my troubles;
Luk22:29 And I will give you a kingdom as my Father has given one to me,
Luk22:30 So that you may take food and drink at my table in my kingdom, and be seated like kings, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Luk22:31 Simon, Simon, Satan has made a request to have you, so that he may put you to the test as grain is tested:
Luk22:35 And he said to them, When I sent you out without money or bag or shoes, were you in need of anything? And they said, Nothing.
Luk22:37 For I say to you that these words will be put into effect in me, And he was numbered among the evil-doers: for what has been said in the Writings about me has an end.
Luk22:38 And they said, Lord, here are two swords. And he said, It is enough.
Luk22:40 And when he came to the place, he said to them, Make a prayer that you may not be put to the test.
Luk22:41 And he went a little distance away from them and, falling on his knees in prayer, he said,
Luk22:45 And, getting up from prayer, he came to the disciples, and saw that they were sleeping for sorrow.
Luk22:46 And he said, Why are you sleeping? Get up, and give yourselves to prayer, so that you may not be put to the test.
Luk22:49 And when those who were with him saw what was coming, they said, Lord, may we not make use of our swords?
Luk22:51 But Jesus, answering, said, Put up with this, at least. And touching his ear, he made it well.
Luk22:52 And Jesus said to the chief priests and the captains of the Temple and the rulers, who had come against him, Have you come out as against a thief, with swords and sticks?
Luk22:53 When I was in the Temple with you every day, your hands were not stretched out against me: but this is your hour, and the authority of the dark power.
Luk22:54 And they made him a prisoner and took him away to the house of the high priest. But Peter went after them at a distance.
Luk22:55 And a fire was lighted in the middle of the open square, and they were seated together, and Peter was among them.
Luk22:58 And after a little time, another saw him and said, You are one of them; and he said, Man, I am not.
Luk22:64 And, covering his eyes, they said to him, Are you prophet enough to say who gave you that blow?
Luk22:65 And they said a number of other evil things against him.
Luk22:66 And when it was day, the rulers of the people came together, with the chief priests and the scribes, and they took him before their Sanhedrin, saying,
Luk22:67 If you are the Christ, say so. But he said, If I say so you will not have belief;
Luk22:68 And if I put a question to you, you will not give an answer.
Luk22:70 And they all said, Are you then the Son of God? and he said, You say that I am.
Luk22:71 And they said, What more need have we of witness? we have the very words of his mouth.
Luk23:2 And they made statements against him, saying, This man has to our knowledge been teaching our nation to do wrong, and not to make payment of taxes to Caesar, even saying that he himself is Christ, a king.
Luk23:5 But they became more violent than before, saying, He has made trouble among the people, teaching through all Judaea from Galilee to this place.
Luk23:14 You say that this man has been teaching the people evil things: now I, after going into the question before you, see nothing wrong in this man in connection with the things which you have said against him:
Luk23:17 []
Luk23:18 But with loud voices they said all together, Put this man to death, and make Barabbas free.
Luk23:20 And Pilate again said to them that it was his desire to let Jesus go free.
Luk23:21 But crying out they said, To the cross with him!
Luk23:22 And he said to them a third time, Why, what evil has he done? I see no reason for putting him to death: I will give him punishment and let him go.
Luk23:23 But they went on crying out loudly, Let him be put to death on the cross. And they had their way.
Luk23:24 And Pilate gave his decision for their desire to be put into effect.
Luk23:25 And in answer to their request, he let that man go free who had been in prison for acting against the government and causing death, and Jesus he gave up to their pleasure.
Luk23:26 And while they were taking him away, they put their hands on Simon of Cyrene, who was coming from the country, and made him take the cross after Jesus.
Luk23:27 And a great band of people went after him, and of women making signs of grief and weeping for him.
Luk23:28 But Jesus, turning to them, said, Daughters of Jerusalem, let not your weeping be for me, but for yourselves and for your children.
Luk23:30 And they will say to the mountains, Come down on us, and to the hills, Be a cover over us.
Luk23:34 And Jesus said, Father, let them have forgiveness, for they have no knowledge of what they are doing. And they made division of his clothing among them by the decision of chance.
Luk23:39 And one of the evil-doers on the cross, with bitter feeling, said to him, Are you not the Christ? Get yourself and us out of this.
Luk23:41 And with reason; for we have the right reward of our acts, but this man has done nothing wrong.
Luk23:49 And all his friends and the women who came with him from Galilee, were waiting at a distance, watching these things.
Luk23:56 And they went back and got ready spices and perfumes; and on the Sabbath they took their rest, in agreement with the law.
Luk24:3 And they went in, but the body of the Lord Jesus was not there.
Luk24:5 And while their faces were bent down to the earth in fear, these said to them, Why are you looking for the living among the dead?
Luk24:6 He is not here, he has come back to life: have in mind what he said to you when he was still in Galilee, saying,
Luk24:8 And his words came back into their minds,
Luk24:10 Now they were Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary, the mother of James: and the other women with them said these things to the Apostles.
Luk24:11 But these words seemed foolish to them, and they had no belief in them.
Luk24:14 And they were talking together about all those things which had taken place.
Luk24:15 And while they were talking and questioning together, Jesus himself came near and went with them.
Luk24:16 But their eyes were not open that they might have knowledge of him.
Luk24:17 And he said to them, What are you talking about together while you go?
Luk24:19 And he said to them, What things? And they said, The things to do with Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, great in his acts and his words, before God and all the people:
Luk24:20 And how the chief priests and our rulers gave him up to be put to death on the cross.
Luk24:21 But we were hoping that he would be the Saviour of Israel. In addition to all this he has now let three days go by from the time when these things took place;
Luk24:22 And certain women among us gave us cause for wonder, for they went early to the place where his body had been put,
Luk24:23 And it was not there; then they came saying that they had seen a vision of angels who said that he was living.
Luk24:24 And some of those who were with us went to the place, and saw that it was as the women had said, but him they did not see.
Luk24:25 And he said, O foolish men! how slow you are to give belief to what the prophets have said.
Luk24:27 And he made clear to them all the things in the Writings, from Moses and from all the prophets, which had to do with himself.
Luk24:28 And they came near the town to which they were going, and he seemed as if he was going on;
Luk24:29 But they kept him back, saying, Do not go, for evening is near, the day is almost gone. And he went in with them.
Luk24:30 And when he was seated with them at table, he took the bread, and said words of blessing and, making division of it, he gave it to them.
Luk24:31 And then their eyes were open, and they had knowledge of him, but he went from their view.
Luk24:32 And they said to one another, Were not our hearts burning in us while he was talking to us on the way, making clear to us the holy Writings?
Luk24:33 And that very hour they got up and went back to Jerusalem, where the eleven and the others had come together.
Luk24:35 And they gave an account of the things which had taken place on the way, and how, when he gave them bread, they had knowledge of him.
Luk24:36 And while they were saying these things, he himself was among them, and said to them, Peace be with you!
Luk24:37 But they were full of fear, being of the opinion that they were seeing a spirit.
Luk24:38 And he said to them, Why are you troubled, and why are your hearts full of doubt?
Luk24:39 See; my hands and my feet: it is I myself; put your hands on me and make certain; for a spirit has not flesh and bones as you see that I have.
Luk24:40 And when he had said this, he let them see his hands and his feet.
Luk24:41 And because, for joy and wonder, they were still in doubt, he said to them, Have you any food here?
Luk24:42 And they gave him a bit of cooked fish.
Luk24:43 And before their eyes he took a meal.
Luk24:44 And he said to them, These are the words which I said to you when I was still with you, how it was necessary for all the things which are in the writings of Moses and the prophets and in the Psalms about me, to be put into effect.
Luk24:45 Then he made the holy Writings clear to their minds.
Luk24:46 And he said to them, So it is in the Writings that the Christ would undergo death, and come back to life again on the third day;
Luk24:48 You are witnesses of these things.
Luk24:49 And now I will send to you what my father has undertaken to give you, but do not go from the town, till the power from heaven comes to you.
Luk24:50 And he took them out till they were near Bethany, and lifting up his hands, he gave them a blessing.
Luk24:51 And while he was doing so, he went from them and was taken up into heaven.
Luk24:52 And they gave him worship and went back to Jerusalem with great joy.
Jhn1:12 To all those who did so take him, however, he gave the right of becoming children of God--that is, to those who had faith in his name:
Jhn1:14 And so the Word became flesh and took a place among us for a time; and we saw his glory--such glory as is given to an only son by his father--saw it to be true and full of grace.
Jhn1:16 From his full measure we have all been given grace on grace.
Jhn1:21 And they said to him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he said, I am not. Are you the prophet? And his answer was, I am not.
Jhn1:22 So they said to him, Who are you then? We have to give some answer to those who sent us. What have you to say about yourself?
Jhn1:25 And they put this question to him, saying, Why then are you giving baptism if you are not the Christ, or Elijah, or the prophet?
Jhn1:26 John's answer was: I give baptism with water; but there is one among you of whom you have no knowledge;
Jhn1:38 And Jesus, turning round, saw them coming after him and said to them, What are you looking for? They said to him, Rabbi (which is to say, Master), where are you living?
Jhn1:39 He said to them, Come and see. They went with him then and saw where he was living; and they were with him all that day: it was then about the tenth hour of the day.
Jhn1:41 Early in the morning he came across his brother and said to him, We have made discovery! It is the Messiah! (which is to say, the Christ).
Jhn1:45 Philip came across Nathanael and said to him, We have made a discovery! It is he of whom Moses, in the law, and the prophets were writing, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
Jhn1:51 And he said to him, Truly I say to you all, You will see heaven opening and God's angels going up and coming down on the Son of man.
Jhn2:3 When they had not enough wine, the mother of Jesus said to him, They have no wine.
Jhn2:5 His mother said to the servants, Whatever he says to you, do it.
Jhn2:7 Jesus said to the servants, Make the pots full of water. And they made them full to the top.
Jhn2:8 Then he said to them, Now take some, and give it to the master of the feast. So they took it to him.
Jhn2:15 And he made a whip of small cords and put them all out of the Temple, with the sheep and the oxen, sending in all directions the small money of the changers and overturning their tables;
Jhn2:18 Then the Jews put this question to him: What sign of authority have you to give us, seeing that you do these things?
Jhn2:19 And Jesus said to them, Send destruction on this Temple and I will put it up again in three days.
Jhn2:24 But Jesus did not have faith in them, because he had knowledge of them all.
Jhn3:2 He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we are certain that you have come from God as a teacher, because no man would be able to do these signs which you do if God was not with him.
Jhn3:7 Do not be surprised that I say to you, It is necessary for you to have a second birth.
Jhn3:11 Truly, I say to you, We say that of which we have knowledge; we give witness of what we have seen; and you do not take our witness to be true.
Jhn3:12 If you have no belief when my words are about the things of earth, how will you have belief if my words are about the things of heaven?
Jhn3:16 For God had such love for the world that he gave his only Son, so that whoever has faith in him may not come to destruction but have eternal life.
Jhn3:19 And this is the test by which men are judged: the light has come into the world and men have more love for the dark than for the light, because their acts are evil.
Jhn3:28 You yourselves give witness that I said, I am not the Christ. What I said was, I am sent before the Christ.
Jhn4:12 Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us the fountain and took the water of it himself, with his children and his cattle?
Jhn4:20 Our fathers gave worship on this mountain, but you Jews say that the right place for worship is in Jerusalem.
Jhn4:21 Jesus said to her, Woman, take my word for this; the time is coming when you will not give worship to the Father on this mountain or in Jerusalem.
Jhn4:22 You give worship, but without knowledge of what you are worshipping: we give worship to what we have knowledge of: for salvation comes from the Jews.
Jhn4:25 The woman said to him, I am certain that the Messiah, who is named Christ, is coming; when he comes he will make all things clear to us.
Jhn4:29 Come and see a man who has been talking to me of everything I ever did! Is it possible that this is the Christ?
Jhn4:32 But he said to them, I have food of which you have no knowledge.
Jhn4:35 You would say, Four months from now is the time of the grain-cutting. Take a look, I say to you, at the fields; they are even now white for cutting.
Jhn4:38 I sent you to get in grain which you had no hand in planting: other men did that work, and you take the reward.
Jhn4:40 So when the people came to him they made request to him to be among them for a time, and he was there two days.
Jhn4:42 And they said to the woman, Now we have faith, but not because of your story: we ourselves have given ear to his words, and we are certain that he is truly the Saviour of the world.
Jhn4:45 So when he came into Galilee, the Galilaeans took him to their hearts because of the things which they had seen him do in Jerusalem at the feast--they themselves having been there at the feast.
Jhn4:48 Then Jesus said to him, You will not have faith if you do not see signs and wonders.
Jhn4:52 So he put a question to them as to the hour when he became better; and they said to him, The disease went from him yesterday at the seventh hour.
Jhn5:12 Then they put to him the question: Who is the man who said to you, Take it up and go?
Jhn5:17 But his answer was: My Father is still working even now, and so I am working.
Jhn5:19 So Jesus made answer and said, Truly I say to you, The Son is not able to do anything himself; he is able to do only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does the Son does it in the same way.
Jhn5:20 For the Father has love for the Son and lets him see everything which he does: and he will let him see greater works than these so that you may be full of wonder.
Jhn5:21 In the same way, as the Father gives life to the dead, even so the Son gives life to those to whom he is pleased to give it.
Jhn5:24 Truly I say to you, The man whose ears are open to my word and who has faith in him who sent me, has eternal life; he will not be judged, but has come from death into life.
Jhn5:25 Truly I say to you, The time is coming, it has even now come, when the voice of the Son of God will come to the ears of the dead, and those hearing it will have life.
Jhn5:28 Do not be surprised at this: for the time is coming when his voice will come to all who are in the place of the dead,
Jhn5:33 You sent to John and he gave true witness.
Jhn5:34 But I have no need of a man's witness: I only say these things so that you may have salvation.
Jhn5:35 He was a burning and shining light, and for a time you were ready to be happy in his light.
Jhn5:37 And the Father himself who sent me has given witness about me. Not one of you has ever given ear to his voice; his form you have not seen.
Jhn5:38 And you have not kept his word in your hearts, because you have not faith in him whom he has sent.
Jhn5:39 You make search in the holy Writings, in the belief that through them you get eternal life; and it is those Writings which give witness about me.
Jhn5:40 And still you have no desire to come to me so that you may have life.
Jhn5:42 But I have knowledge of you that you have no love for God in your hearts.
Jhn5:43 I have come in my Father's name, and your hearts are not open to me. If another comes with no other authority but himself, you will give him your approval.
Jhn5:44 How is it possible for you to have faith while you take honour one from another and have no desire for the honour which comes from the only God?
Jhn5:45 Put out of your minds the thought that I will say things against you to the Father: the one who says things against you is Moses, on whom you put your hopes.
Jhn5:46 If you had belief in Moses you would have belief in me; for his writings are about me.
Jhn5:47 If you have no belief in his writings, how will you have belief in my words?
Jhn6:5 Lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw a great number of people coming to where he was, and he said to Philip, Where may we get bread for all these people?
Jhn6:7 Philip made answer, Bread to the value of two hundred pence would not be enough even to give everyone a little.
Jhn6:10 Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.
Jhn6:11 Then Jesus took the cakes and having given praise to God, he gave them to the people who were seated, and the fishes in the same way, as much as they had need of.
Jhn6:12 And when they had had enough, Jesus said to his disciples, Take up the broken bits which are over, so that nothing may be wasted.
Jhn6:13 So they took them up: twelve baskets full of broken bits of the five cakes which were over after the people had had enough.
Jhn6:17 And they took a boat and went across the sea in the direction of Capernaum. By then it was dark and still Jesus had not come to them.
Jhn6:19 After they had gone three or four miles they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near to the boat; and they had great fear.
Jhn6:20 But he said to them, It is I, have no fear.
Jhn6:21 Then they readily took him into the boat: and straight away the boat was at the land to which they were going.
Jhn6:26 Jesus, answering them, said, Truly I say to you, You come after me, not because you saw signs, but because you were given the bread and had enough.
Jhn6:27 Let your work not be for the food which comes to an end, but for the food which goes on for eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you, for on him has God the Father put his mark.
Jhn6:28 Then they said to him, How may we do the works of God?
Jhn6:30 So they said, What sign do you give us, so that we may see and have faith in you? What do you do?
Jhn6:31 Our fathers had the manna in the waste land, as the Writings say, He gave them bread from heaven.
Jhn6:32 Jesus then said to them, Truly I say to you, What Moses gave you was not the bread from heaven; it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.
Jhn6:34 Ah, Lord, they said, give us that bread for ever!
Jhn6:36 But it is as I said to you: you have seen me, and still you have no faith.
Jhn6:42 And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we have seen? How is it then that he now says, I have come down from heaven?
Jhn6:43 Jesus made answer and said, Do not say things against me, one to another.
Jhn6:45 The writings of the prophets say, And they will all have teaching from God. Everyone whose ears have been open to the teaching of the Father comes to me.
Jhn6:47 Truly I say to you, He who has faith in me has eternal life.
Jhn6:49 Your fathers took the manna in the waste land--and they are dead.
Jhn6:52 Then the Jews had an angry discussion among themselves, saying, How is it possible for this man to give us his flesh for food?
Jhn6:53 Then Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, If you do not take the flesh of the Son of man for food, and if you do not take his blood for drink, you have no life in you.
Jhn6:58 This is the bread which has come down from heaven. It is not like the food which your fathers had: they took of the manna, and are dead; but he who takes this bread for food will have life for ever.
Jhn6:61 When Jesus became conscious that his disciples were protesting about what he said, he said to them, Does this give you trouble?
Jhn6:62 What then will you say if you see the Son of man going up to where he was before?
Jhn6:63 The spirit is the life giver; the flesh is of no value: the words which I have said to you are spirit and they are life.
Jhn6:64 But still some of you have no faith. For it was clear to Jesus from the first who they were who had no faith, and who it was who would be false to him.
Jhn6:65 And he said, This is why I said to you, No man is able to come to me if he is not given the power to do so by the Father.
Jhn6:67 So Jesus said to the twelve, Have you a desire to go away?
Jhn6:68 Then Simon Peter gave this answer: Lord, to whom are we to go? you have the words of eternal life;
Jhn6:69 And we have faith and are certain that you are the Holy One of God.
Jhn6:70 Then Jesus said, Did I not make a selection of you, the twelve, and one of you is a son of the Evil One?
Jhn7:6 Jesus said to them, My time is still to come, but any time is good for you.
Jhn7:7 It is not possible for you to be hated by the world; but I am hated by it, because I give witness that what it does is evil.
Jhn7:8 Go you up to the feast: I am not going up now to the feast because my time has not fully come.
Jhn7:19 Did not Moses give you the law? Even so, not one of you keeps the law. Why have you a desire to put me to death?
Jhn7:21 This was the answer of Jesus: I have done one work and you are all surprised at it.
Jhn7:22 Moses gave you circumcision--not that it comes from Moses, but from the fathers--and even on the Sabbath you give a child circumcision.
Jhn7:23 If a child is given circumcision on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?
Jhn7:25 Then some of the people of Jerusalem said, Is not this the man whose death is desired?
Jhn7:26 And here he is talking openly and they say nothing to him! Is it possible that the rulers have knowledge that this is truly the Christ?
Jhn7:27 However, it is clear to us where this man comes from: but when the Christ comes no one will have knowledge where he comes from.
Jhn7:28 Then, when he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus said with a loud voice, You have knowledge of me and you have knowledge of where I come from; and I have not come of myself; but there is One who has sent me; he is true, but you have no knowledge of him.
Jhn7:30 Then they had a desire to take him: but no man put hands on him because his hour was still to come.
Jhn7:33 Then Jesus said, I will be with you a little longer and then I go to him who sent me.
Jhn7:34 You will be looking for me, and you will not see me: and where I am you may not come.
Jhn7:35 So the Jews said among themselves, To what place is he going where we will not see him? will he go to the Jews living among the Greeks and become the teacher of the Greeks?
Jhn7:36 What is this saying of his, You will be looking for me and will not see me, and where I am you may not come?
Jhn7:45 Then the servants went back to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, Why have you not got him with you?
Jhn7:47 Then the Pharisees said to them, Have you, like the others, been given false ideas?
Jhn7:50 Nicodemus--he who had come to Jesus before, being himself one of them--said to them,
Jhn7:51 Is a man judged by our law before it has given him a hearing and has knowledge of what he has done?
Jhn7:52 This was their answer: And do you come from Galilee? Make search and you will see that no prophet comes out of Galilee.
Jhn8:1 But Jesus went to the Mountain of Olives.
Jhn8:4 And putting her forward, they said to him, Master, this woman has been taken in the very act of sinning against the married relation.
Jhn8:5 Now in the law Moses gave directions that such women were to be stoned; what do you say about it?
Jhn8:6 They said this, testing him, so that they might have something against him. But Jesus, with his head bent down, made letters on the floor with his finger.
Jhn8:8 And again, with bent head, he made letters on the floor.
Jhn8:13 So the Pharisees said to him, The witness you give is about yourself: your witness is not true.
Jhn8:14 Jesus said in answer, Even if I give witness about myself, my witness is true, because I have knowledge of where I came from and where I am going; but you have no knowledge of where I come from or of where I am going.
Jhn8:16 Even if I am judging, my decision is right, because I am not by myself--with me is the Father who sent me.
Jhn8:18 I give witness about myself and the Father who sent me gives witness about me.
Jhn8:20 Jesus said these words in the place where the offerings were stored, while he was teaching in the Temple: but no man took him because his time was still to come.
Jhn8:21 Then he said to them again, I am going away and you will be looking for me, but death will overtake you in your sins. It is not possible for you to come where I am going.
Jhn8:22 So the Jews said, Will he take his life? Is that why he says, Where I go it is not possible for you to come?
Jhn8:23 And he said to them, You are of the earth; I am from heaven: you are of this world; I am not of this world.
Jhn8:24 For this reason I said to you that death will overtake you in your sins: for if you have not faith that I am he, death will come to you while you are in your sins.
Jhn8:25 Then they said to him, Who are you? Jesus said, What I said to you from the first.
Jhn8:26 I have much to say about you and against you: but he who sent me is true and what he has said to me I say to the world.
Jhn8:27 They did not see that his words were about the Father.
Jhn8:30 When he said this a number came to have faith in him.
Jhn8:31 Then Jesus said to the Jews who had faith in him, If you keep my word, then you are truly my disciples;
Jhn8:32 And you will have knowledge of what is true, and that will make you free.
Jhn8:33 They said to him in answer, We are Abraham's seed and have never been any man's servant: why do you say, You will become free?
Jhn8:35 Now the servant does not go on living in the house for ever, but the son does.
Jhn8:36 If then the son makes you free, you will be truly free.
Jhn8:37 I am conscious that you are Abraham's seed; but you have a desire to put me to death because my word has no place in you.
Jhn8:38 I say the things which I have seen in my Father's house: and you do the things which come to you from your father's house.
Jhn8:39 In answer they said to him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus said to them, If you were Abraham's children you would do what Abraham did.
Jhn8:40 But now you have a desire to put me to death, a man who has said to you what is true, as I had it from God: Abraham did not do that.
Jhn8:41 You are doing the works of your father. They said to him, We are true sons of Abraham; we have one Father, who is God.
Jhn8:42 Jesus said to them, If God was your Father you would have love for me, because it was from God I came and am here. I did not come of myself, but he sent me.
Jhn8:43 Why are my words not clear to you? It is because your ears are shut to my teaching.
Jhn8:44 You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him. When he says what is false, it is natural to him, for he is false and the father of what is false.
Jhn8:45 But because I say what is true, you have no belief in me.
Jhn8:46 Which of you is able truly to say that I am a sinner? If I say what is true, why have you no belief in me?
Jhn8:47 He who is a child of God gives ear to the words of God: your ears are not open to them because you are not from God.
Jhn8:48 The Jews said to him in answer, Are we not right in saying that you are of Samaria and have an evil spirit?
Jhn8:50 I, however, am not in search of glory for myself: there is One who is searching for it and he is judge.
Jhn8:51 Truly I say to you, If a man keeps my word he will never see death.
Jhn8:52 The Jews said to him, Now we are certain that you have an evil spirit. Abraham is dead, and the prophets are dead; and you say, If a man keeps my word he will never see death.
Jhn8:53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? and the prophets are dead: who do you say that you are?
Jhn8:54 Jesus said in answer, If I take glory for myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who gives me glory, of whom you say that he is your God.
Jhn8:55 You have no knowledge of him, but I have knowledge of him; and if I said I have no knowledge of him I would be talking falsely like you: but I have full knowledge of him, and I keep his word.
Jhn8:57 Then the Jews said to him, You are not fifty years old; have you seen Abraham?
Jhn8:58 Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, Before Abraham came into being, I am.
Jhn9:3 Jesus said in answer, It was not because of his sin, or because of his father's or mother's; it was so that the works of God might be seen openly in him.
Jhn9:9 Some said, It is he: others said, No, but he is like him. He said, I am he.
Jhn9:11 His answer was: The man who is named Jesus put earth mixed with water on my eyes, and said to me, Go and make yourself clean in Siloam: so I went away and, after washing, am now able to see.
Jhn9:12 And they said to him, Where is he? His answer was: I have no knowledge.
Jhn9:14 Now the day on which the earth was mixed by Jesus and the man's eyes were made open was the Sabbath.
Jhn9:15 So the Pharisees put more questions to him about how his eyes had been made open. And he said to them, He put earth on my eyes, and I had a wash and am able to see.
Jhn9:16 Then some of the Pharisees said, That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath. Others said, How is it possible for a sinner to do such signs? So there was a division among them.
Jhn9:18 Now the Jews had no belief in the statement that he had been blind and was now able to see, till they sent for the father and mother of the man whose eyes had been made open,
Jhn9:19 And put the question to them, saying, Is this your son, of whom you say that he was blind at birth? how is it then that he is now able to see?
Jhn9:20 In answer his father and mother said, We are certain that this is our son and that he was blind at birth:
Jhn9:22 They said this because of their fear of the Jews: for the Jews had come to an agreement that if any man said that Jesus was the Christ he would be put out of the Synagogue.
Jhn9:23 That was the reason why they said, He is old enough; put the question to him.
Jhn9:25 He said in answer, I have no knowledge if he is a sinner or not, but one thing I am certain about; I was blind, and now I see.
Jhn9:26 Then they said to him, What did he do to you? how did he give you the use of your eyes?
Jhn9:27 His answer was: I have said it before, but your ears were shut: why would you have me say it again? is it your desire to become his disciples?
Jhn9:28 And they were angry with him and said, You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.
Jhn9:29 We are certain that God gave his word to Moses: but as for this man, we have no knowledge where he comes from.
Jhn9:30 The man said in answer, Why, here is a strange thing! You have no knowledge where he comes from though he gave me the use of my eyes.
Jhn9:33 If this man did not come from God he would be unable to do anything.
Jhn9:34 Their answer was: You came to birth through sin; do you make yourself our teacher? And they put him out of the Synagogue.
Jhn9:39 And Jesus said, I came into this world to be a judge, so that those who do not see may see, and those who see may become blind.
Jhn9:40 These words came to the ears of the Pharisees who were with him and they said to him, Are we, then, blind?
Jhn9:41 Jesus said to them, If you were blind you would have no sin: but now that you say, We see; your sin is there still.
Jhn10:5 They will not go after another who is not their keeper, but will go from him in flight, because his voice is strange to them.
Jhn10:6 In this Jesus was teaching them in the form of a story: but what he said was not clear to them.
Jhn10:7 So Jesus said again, Truly I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.
Jhn10:15 Even as the Father has knowledge of me and I of the Father; and I am giving my life for the sheep.
Jhn10:23 And Jesus was walking in the Temple, in Solomon's covered way.
Jhn10:24 Then the Jews came round him, saying, how long are you going to keep us in doubt? If you are the Christ, say so clearly.
Jhn10:25 Jesus said in answer, I have said it and you have no belief: the works which I do in my Father's name, these give witness about me.
Jhn10:26 But you have no belief because you are not of my sheep.
Jhn10:27 My sheep give ear to my voice, and I have knowledge of them, and they come after me:
Jhn10:28 And I give them eternal life; they will never come to destruction, and no one will ever take them out of my hand.
Jhn10:31 Then the Jews took up stones again to send at him.
Jhn10:32 Jesus said to them in answer, I have let you see a number of good works from the Father; for which of those works are you stoning me?
Jhn10:33 This was their answer: We are not stoning you for a good work but for evil words; because being a man you make yourself God.
Jhn10:35 If he said they were gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Writings may not be broken),
Jhn10:36 Do you say of him whom the Father made holy and sent into the world, Your words are evil; because I said, I am God's Son?
Jhn10:37 If I am not doing the works of my Father, do not have belief in me;
Jhn10:38 But if I am doing them, then have belief in the works even if you have no belief in me; so that you may see clearly and be certain that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.
Jhn10:40 And he went again to the other side of the Jordan, to the place where John first gave baptism; and he was there for a time.
Jhn11:6 So when the news came to him that Lazarus was ill, he did not go from the place where he was for two days.
Jhn11:10 But if a man goes about in the night, he may have a fall because the light is not in him.
Jhn11:12 Then his disciples said to him, Lord, if he is resting he will get well.
Jhn11:13 Jesus, however, was talking of his death: but they had the idea that he was talking about taking rest in sleep.
Jhn11:14 Then Jesus said to them clearly, Lazarus is dead.
Jhn11:15 And because of you I am glad I was not there, so that you may have faith; but let us go to him.
Jhn11:18 Now Bethany was near to Jerusalem, about two miles away;
Jhn11:33 And when Jesus saw her weeping, and saw the Jews weeping who came with her, his spirit was moved and he was troubled,
Jhn11:38 So Jesus, deeply troubled in heart, came to the place of the dead. It was a hole in the rock, and a stone was over the opening.
Jhn11:40 Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you had faith you would see the glory of God?
Jhn11:41 So they took away the stone. And Jesus, looking up to heaven, said, Father, I give praise to you for hearing me.
Jhn11:43 Then he said in a loud voice, Lazarus, come out!
Jhn11:45 Then a number of the Jews who had come to Mary and had seen the things which Jesus did had belief in him.
Jhn11:46 But some of them went to the Pharisees with the news of what Jesus had done.
Jhn11:47 Then the high priests and the Pharisees had a meeting and said, What are we doing? This man is doing a number of signs.
Jhn11:48 If we let him go on in this way, everybody will have belief in him and the Romans will come and take away our place and our nation.
Jhn11:49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, You have no knowledge of anything;
Jhn11:52 And not for that nation only, but for the purpose of uniting in one body the children of God all over the world.
Jhn11:55 Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and numbers of people went up from the country to Jerusalem to make themselves clean before the Passover.
Jhn12:7 Then Jesus said, Let her be. Let her keep what she has for the day of my death.
Jhn12:18 And that was the reason the people went out to him, because it had come to their ears that he had done this sign.
Jhn12:20 Now there were some Greeks among the people who had come up to give worship at the feast:
Jhn12:23 And Jesus said to them in answer, The hour of the glory of the Son of man has come.
Jhn12:29 Hearing the sound, a number of people who were there said that it was thunder: others said, An angel was talking to him.
Jhn12:33 (This he said, pointing to the sort of death he would have.)
Jhn12:34 Then the people in answer said to him, The law says that the Christ will have life without end: how say you then that it is necessary for the Son of man to be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?
Jhn12:35 Jesus said to them, For a little time longer the light will be among you; while you have the light go on walking in it, so that the dark may not overtake you: one walking in the dark has no knowledge of where he is going.
Jhn12:36 In so far as you have the light, put your faith in the light so that you may become sons of light. With these words Jesus went away and for a time was not seen again by them.
Jhn12:37 But though he had done such a number of signs before them, they still had no belief in him:
Jhn12:38 So that the words of the prophet Isaiah might come true, when he said, Lord, who has any belief in our preaching? and the arm of the Lord, to whom has it been unveiled?
Jhn12:39 For this reason they were unable to have belief, because Isaiah said again,
Jhn12:42 However, a number even of the rulers had belief in him, but because of the Pharisees they did not say so openly for fear that they might be shut out from the Synagogue:
Jhn12:50 And I have knowledge that his order is eternal life: so that the things which I say, I say them even as the Father says them to me.
Jhn13:9 Simon Peter said to him, Lord, not my feet only, but my hands and my head.
Jhn13:10 Jesus said to him, He who is bathed has need only to have his feet washed and then he is clean all over: and you, my disciples, are clean, but not all of you.
Jhn13:11 (He had knowledge who was false to him; that is why he said, You are not all clean.)
Jhn13:12 Then, after washing their feet and putting on his robe again, he took his seat and said to them, Do you see what I have done to you?
Jhn13:13 You give me the name of Master and Lord: and you are right; that is what I am.
Jhn13:14 If then I, the Lord and the Master, have made your feet clean, it is right for you to make one another's feet clean.
Jhn13:15 I have given you an example, so that you may do what I have done to you.
Jhn13:16 Truly I say to you, A servant is not greater than his lord; and he who is sent is not greater than the one who sent him.
Jhn13:17 If these things are clear to you, happy are you if you do them.
Jhn13:18 I am not talking of you all: I have knowledge of my true disciples, but things are as they are, so that the Writings may come true, The foot of him who takes bread with me is lifted up against me.
Jhn13:19 From this time forward, I give you knowledge of things before they come about, so that when they come about you may have belief that I am he.
Jhn13:20 Truly I say to you, He who takes to his heart anyone whom I send, takes me to his heart; and he who so takes me, takes him who sent me.
Jhn13:23 There was at table one of his disciples, the one dear to Jesus, resting his head on Jesus' breast.
Jhn13:28 Now it was not clear to anyone at table why he said this to him.
Jhn13:32 If God is given glory in him, God will give him glory in himself, and will give him glory even now.
Jhn13:33 My dear children, I am only to be with you a little longer. Then you will be looking for me: and as I said to the Jews, so now I say to you, Where I am going you may not come.
Jhn13:34 I give you a new law: Have love one for another; even as I have had love for you, so are you to have love one for another.
Jhn13:38 Jesus said in answer, Will you give up your life for me? Truly I say to you, Before the cry of the cock you will have said three times that you are not my disciple.
Jhn14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: have faith in God and have faith in me.
Jhn14:2 In my Father's house are rooms enough; if it was not so, would I have said that I am going to make ready a place for you?
Jhn14:3 And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come back again and will take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am.
Jhn14:4 And you all have knowledge of where I am going, and of the way to it.
Jhn14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the true and living way: no one comes to the Father but by me.
Jhn14:7 If you had knowledge of me, you would have knowledge of my Father: you have knowledge of him now and have seen him.
Jhn14:8 Philip said to him, Lord, let us see the Father, and we have need of nothing more.
Jhn14:9 Jesus said to him, Philip, have I been with you all this time, and still you have no knowledge of me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. Why do you say, Let us see the Father?
Jhn14:10 Have you not faith that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words which I say to you, I say not from myself: but the Father who is in me all the time does his works.
Jhn14:11 Have faith that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me: at least, have faith in me because of what I do.
Jhn14:12 Truly I say to you, He who puts his faith in me will do the very works which I do, and he will do greater things than these, because I am going to my Father.
Jhn14:13 And whatever request you make in my name, that I will do, so that the Father may have glory in the Son.
Jhn14:14 If you make any request to me in my name, I will do it.
Jhn14:15 If you have love for me, you will keep my laws.
Jhn14:16 And I will make prayer to the Father and he will give you another Helper to be with you for ever,
Jhn14:17 Even the Spirit of true knowledge. That Spirit the world is not able to take to its heart because it sees him not and has no knowledge of him: but you have knowledge of him, because he is ever with you and will be in you.
Jhn14:18 I will not let you be without a friend: I am coming to you.
Jhn14:19 A little time longer, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me; and you will be living because I am living.
Jhn14:21 He who has my laws and keeps them, he it is who has love for me: and he who has love for me will be loved by my Father, and I will have love for him and will let myself be seen clearly by him.
Jhn14:22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, How is it that you will let yourself be seen clearly by us and not by the world?
Jhn14:23 Jesus said to him in answer, If anyone has love for me, he will keep my words: and he will be dear to my Father; and we will come to him and make our living-place with him.
Jhn14:24 He who has no love for me does not keep my words; and the word which you are hearing is not my word but the Father's who sent me.
Jhn14:25 I have said all this to you while I am still with you.
Jhn14:26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will be your teacher in all things and will put you in mind of everything I have said to you.
Jhn14:27 May peace be with you; my peace I give to you: I give it not as the world gives. Let not your heart be troubled; let it be without fear.
Jhn14:28 Keep in mind how I said to you, I go away and come to you again. If you had love for me you would be glad, because I am going to the Father: for the Father is greater than I.
Jhn14:29 And now I have given you word of it before it comes, so that, when it comes, you may have faith.
Jhn14:30 After this I will not say much to you, because the ruler of this world comes: and he has no power over me;
Jhn15:2 He takes away every branch in me which has no fruit, and every branch which has fruit he makes clean, so that it may have more fruit.
Jhn15:3 You are clean, even now, through the teaching which I have given you.
Jhn15:4 Be in me at all times as I am in you. As the branch is not able to give fruit of itself, if it is not still on the vine, so you are not able to do so if you are not in me.
Jhn15:6 If a man does not keep himself in me, he becomes dead and is cut off like a dry branch; such branches are taken up and put in the fire and burned.
Jhn15:7 If you are in me at all times, and my words are in you, then anything for which you make a request will be done for you.
Jhn15:8 Here is my Father's glory, in that you give much fruit and so are my true disciples.
Jhn15:9 Even as the Father has given me his love, so I have given my love to you: be ever in my love.
Jhn15:10 If you keep my laws, you will be ever in my love, even as I have kept my Father's laws, and am ever in his love.
Jhn15:11 I have said these things to you so that I may have joy in you and so that your joy may be complete.
Jhn15:13 Greater love has no man than this, that a man gives up his life for his friends.
Jhn15:14 You are my friends, if you do what I give you orders to do.
Jhn15:15 No longer do I give you the name of servants; because a servant is without knowledge of what his master is doing: I give you the name of friends, because I have given you knowledge of all the things which my Father has said to me.
Jhn15:16 You did not take me for yourselves, but I took you for myself; and I gave you the work of going about and producing fruit which will be for ever; so that whatever request you make to the Father in my name he may give it to you.
Jhn15:17 So this is my law for you: Have love one for another.
Jhn15:18 If you are hated by the world, keep in mind that I was hated by the world before you.
Jhn15:19 If you were of the world, you would be loved by the world: but because you are not of the world, but I have taken you out of the world, you are hated by the world.
Jhn15:20 Keep in mind the words I said to you, A servant is not greater than his lord. If they were cruel to me, they will be cruel to you; if they kept my words, they will keep yours.
Jhn15:21 They will do all this to you because of my name--because they have no knowledge of him who sent me.
Jhn15:23 He who has hate for me has hate for my Father.
Jhn15:24 If I had not done among them the works which no other man ever did, they would have had no sin: but now they have seen, and they have had hate in their hearts for me and my Father.
Jhn15:26 When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father even the Spirit of true knowledge who comes from the Father--he will give witness about me;
Jhn15:27 And you, in addition, will give witness because you have been with me from the first.
Jhn16:1 I have said these things to you so that you may not be in doubt.
Jhn16:2 They will put you out of the Synagogues: yes, the time is coming when whoever puts you to death will have the belief that he is doing God's pleasure.
Jhn16:3 They will do these things to you because they have not had knowledge of the Father or of me.
Jhn16:4 I have said these things to you so that when the time comes, what I have said may come to your mind. I did not say them to you at the first, because then I was still with you.
Jhn16:5 But now I am going to him who sent me; and not one of you says to me, Where are you going?
Jhn16:6 But your hearts are full of sorrow because I have said these things.
Jhn16:8 And he, when he comes, will make the world conscious of sin, and of righteousness, and of being judged:
Jhn16:9 Of sin, because they have not faith in me;
Jhn16:11 Of being judged, because the ruler of this world has been judged.
Jhn16:12 I have still much to say to you, but you are not strong enough for it now.
Jhn16:13 However, when he, the Spirit of true knowledge, has come, he will be your guide into all true knowledge: for his words will not come from himself, but whatever has come to his hearing, that he will say: and he will make clear to you the things to come.
Jhn16:14 He will give me glory, because he will take of what is mine, and make it clear to you.
Jhn16:15 Everything which the Father has is mine: that is why I say, He will take of what is mine and will make it clear to you.
Jhn16:16 After a little time you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me.
Jhn16:17 So some of the disciples said one to another, What is this he is saying, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me? and, I am going to the Father?
Jhn16:18 So they said again and again, What is this he is saying, A little time? His words are not clear to us.
Jhn16:19 Jesus saw that they had a desire to put the question to him, so he said to them, Is this what you are questioning one with another, why I said, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me?
Jhn16:21 When a woman is about to give birth she has sorrow, because her hour is come; but when she has given birth to the child, the pain is put out of her mind by the joy that a man has come into the world.
Jhn16:22 So you have sorrow now: but I will see you again, and your hearts will be glad, and no one will take away your joy.
Jhn16:23 And on that day you will put no questions to me. Truly I say to you, Whatever request you make to the Father, he will give it to you in my name.
Jhn16:24 Up to now you have made no request in my name: do so, and it will be answered, so that your hearts may be full of joy.
Jhn16:25 All this I have said to you in veiled language: but the time is coming when I will no longer say things in veiled language but will give you knowledge of the Father clearly.
Jhn16:26 In that day you will make requests in my name: and I do not say that I will make prayer to the Father for you,
Jhn16:29 His disciples said, Now you are talking clearly and not in veiled language.
Jhn16:30 Now we are certain that you have knowledge of all things and have no need for anyone to put questions to you: through this we have faith that you came from God.
Jhn16:31 Jesus made answer, Have you faith now?
Jhn16:32 See, a time is coming, yes, it is now here, when you will go away in all directions, every man to his house, and I will be by myself: but I am not by myself, because the Father is with me.
Jhn17:5 And now, Father, let me have glory with you, even that glory which I had with you before the world was.
Jhn17:6 I have given knowledge of your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world: yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your words.
Jhn17:7 Now it is clear to them that whatever you have given to me comes from you:
Jhn17:8 Because I have given them the words which you gave to me; and they have taken them to heart, and have certain knowledge that I came from you, and they have faith that you sent me.
Jhn17:9 My prayer is for them: my prayer is not for the world, but for those whom you have given to me, because they are yours
Jhn17:10 (All mine are yours, and yours are mine) and I have glory in them.
Jhn17:11 And now I will be no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I come to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name which you have given to me, so that they may be one even as we are one.
Jhn17:12 While I was with them I kept them safe in your name which you have given to me: I took care of them and not one of them has come to destruction, but only the son of destruction, so that the Writings might come true.
Jhn17:13 And now I come to you; and these things I say in the world so that they may have my joy complete in them.
Jhn17:14 I have given your word to them; and they are hated by the world, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
Jhn17:15 My prayer is not that you will take them out of the world, but that you will keep them from the Evil One.
Jhn17:16 They are not of the world any more than I am of the world.
Jhn17:17 Make them holy by the true word: your word is the true word.
Jhn17:18 Even as you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world.
Jhn17:19 And for them I make myself holy, so that they may be made truly holy.
Jhn17:20 My prayer is not for them only, but for all who will have faith in me through their word;
Jhn17:21 May they all be one! Even as you, Father, are in me and I am in you, so let them be in us, so that all men may come to have faith that you sent me.
Jhn17:22 And the glory which you have given to me I have given to them, so that they may be one even as we are one;
Jhn17:23 I in them, and you in me, so that they may be made completely one, and so that it may become clear to all men that you have sent me and that they are loved by you as I am loved by you.
Jhn17:25 Father of righteousness, I have knowledge of you, though the world has not; and to these it is clear that you sent me;
Jhn18:3 So Judas, getting a band of armed men and police from the chief priests and Pharisees, went there with lights and with arms.
Jhn18:4 Then Jesus, having knowledge of everything which was coming on him, went forward and said to them, Who are you looking for?
Jhn18:5 Their answer was, Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus said, I am he. And Judas, who was false to him, was there at their side.
Jhn18:6 And when he said to them, I am he, they went back, falling to the earth.
Jhn18:7 So again he put the question to them, Who are you looking for? And they said, Jesus the Nazarene.
Jhn18:17 Then the girl who was the door-keeper said to Peter, Are you not one of this man's disciples? In answer he said, I am not.
Jhn18:20 Jesus made answer, I said things openly to the world at all times; I have given my teaching in the Synagogues and in the Temple to which all the Jews come; and I have said nothing secretly.
Jhn18:27 Then again Peter said, No. And straight away a cock gave its cry.
Jhn18:28 So they took Jesus from the house of Caiaphas to the Praetorium. It was early. They themselves did not go into the Praetorium, so that they might not become unclean, but might take the Passover.
Jhn18:29 So Pilate came out to them and put the question: What have you to say against this man?
Jhn18:30 They said to him in answer, If the man was not a wrongdoer we would not have given him up to you.
Jhn18:37 Then Pilate said to him, Are you then a king? Jesus made answer, You say that I am a king. For this purpose was I given birth, and for this purpose I came into the world, that I might give witness to what is true. Every lover of what is true gives ear to my voice.
Jhn18:38 Pilate said to him, True? what is true? Having said this he went out again to the Jews and said to them, I see no wrong in him.
Jhn18:39 But every year you make a request to me to let a prisoner go free at the Passover. Is it your desire that I let the King of the Jews go free?
Jhn19:2 And the men of the army made a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and they put a purple robe on him.
Jhn19:3 And they kept coming and saying, Long life to the King of the Jews! And they gave him blows with their hands.
Jhn19:4 And Pilate went out again and said to them, See, I let him come out to you to make it clear to you that I see no wrong in him.
Jhn19:5 Then Jesus came out with the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said to them, Here is the man!
Jhn19:6 So when the chief priests and the police saw him they gave a loud cry, To the cross! to the cross! Pilate said to them, Take him yourselves and put him on the cross: I see no crime in him.
Jhn19:13 So when these words came to Pilate's ear, he took Jesus out, seating himself in the judge's seat in a place named in Hebrew, Gabbatha, or the Stone Floor.
Jhn19:14 (It was the day when they made ready for the Passover; and it was about the sixth hour.) And he said to the Jews, There is your King!
Jhn19:15 Then they gave a loud cry, Away with him! away with him! to the cross! Pilate said to them, Am I to put your King to death on the cross? The chief priests said in answer, We have no king but Caesar.
Jhn19:16 So then he gave him up to them to be put to death on the cross. And they took Jesus away;
Jhn19:17 And he went out with his cross on him to the place which is named Dead Man's Head (in Hebrew, Golgotha):
Jhn19:23 And when Jesus was nailed to the cross, the men of the army took his clothing, and made a division of it into four parts, to every man a part, and they took his coat: now the coat was without a join, made out of one bit of cloth.
Jhn19:28 After this, being conscious that all things had now been done so that the Writings might come true, Jesus said, Give me water.
Jhn19:30 So when Jesus had taken the wine he said, All is done. And with his head bent he gave up his spirit.
Jhn19:34 But one of the men made a wound in his side with a spear, and straight away there came out blood and water.
Jhn19:36 These things came about so that the Writings might be true, No bone of his body will be broken.
Jhn19:39 And Nicodemus came (he who had first come to Jesus by night) with a roll of myrrh and aloes mixed, about a hundred pounds.
Jhn19:41 Now there was a garden near the cross, and in the garden a new place for the dead in which no man had ever been put.
Jhn20:1 Now on the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the place and saw that the stone had been taken away from it.
Jhn20:8 Then the other disciple who came there first went in; and he saw and belief came to him.
Jhn20:16 Jesus said to her, Mary! Turning, she said to him in Hebrew, Rabboni! (which is to say, Master).
Jhn20:17 Jesus said to her, Do not put your hand on me, for I have not gone up to the Father: but go to my brothers and say to them, I go up to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.
Jhn20:18 Mary Magdalene went with the news to the disciples, and said she had seen the Lord and that he had said these things to her.
Jhn20:19 At evening on that day, the first day of the week, when, for fear of the Jews, the doors were shut where the disciples were, Jesus came among them and said to them, May peace be with you!
Jhn20:20 And when he had said this, he let them see his hands and his side. Then the disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.
Jhn20:21 And Jesus said to them again, May peace be with you! As the Father sent me, even so I now send you.
Jhn20:22 And when he had said this, breathing on them, he said to them, Let the Holy Spirit come on you:
Jhn20:23 Any to whom you give forgiveness, will be made free from their sins; and any from whom you keep back forgiveness, will still be in their sins.
Jhn20:24 Now Thomas, one of the twelve, named Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.
Jhn20:25 So the other disciples said to him, We have seen the Lord. But he said to them, If I do not see in his hands the print of the nails and put my finger into the print of the nails, and if I do not put my hand into his side, I will never have belief.
Jhn20:30 A number of other signs Jesus did before his disciples which are not recorded in this book:
Jhn21:2 Simon Peter, Thomas named Didymus, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were all together.
Jhn21:4 Now very early in the morning Jesus was there by the edge of the sea (though the disciples were not conscious that it was Jesus).
Jhn21:5 So Jesus said to them, Children, have you taken any fish? They made answer, No.
Jhn21:8 And the other disciples came in the little boat (they were not far from land, only about two hundred cubits off) pulling the net full of fish.
Jhn21:9 When they got to land, they saw a fire of coals there, with fish cooking on it, and bread.
Jhn21:11 So Peter went to the boat and came back pulling the net to land, full of great fish, a hundred and fifty-three; and though there was such a number the net was not broken.
Jhn21:12 Jesus said to them, Come and take some food. And all the disciples were in fear of putting the question, Who are you? being conscious that it was the Lord.
Jhn21:14 Now this was the third time that Jesus let himself be seen by the disciples after he had come back from the dead.
Jhn21:23 So this saying went about among the brothers that this disciple would not undergo death: Jesus, however, did not say that he would not undergo death, but, If it is my desire for him to be here till I come back, what is that to you?
Act1:3 And to whom he gave clear and certain signs that he was living, after his death; for he was seen by them for forty days, and gave them teaching about the kingdom of God:
Act1:4 And when they were all together, with him, he gave them orders not to go away from Jerusalem, but to keep there, waiting till the word of the Father was put into effect, of which, he said, I have given you knowledge:
Act1:5 For the baptism of John was with water, but you will have baptism with the Holy Spirit, after a little time.
Act1:6 So, when they were together, they said to him, Lord, will you at this time give back the kingdom to Israel?
Act1:7 And he said to them, It is not for you to have knowledge of the time and the order of events which the Father has kept in his control.
Act1:8 But you will have power, when the Holy Spirit has come on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judaea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.
Act1:9 And when he had said these things, while they were looking, he was taken up, and went from their view into a cloud.
Act1:10 And while they were looking up to heaven with great attention, two men came to them, in white clothing,
Act1:11 And said, O men of Galilee, why are you looking up into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken from you into heaven, will come again, in the same way as you saw him go into heaven.
Act1:16 My brothers, the word of God had to be put into effect, which the Holy Spirit had said before, by the mouth of David, about Judas, who was guide to those who took Jesus,
Act1:17 For he was numbered among us, and had his part in our work.
Act1:19 And this came to the knowledge of all those who were living in Jerusalem, so that the field was named in their language, Akel-dama, or, The field of blood.)
Act1:21 For this reason, of the men who have been with us all the time, while the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Act1:22 Starting from the baptism of John till he went up from us, one will have to be a witness with us of his coming back from death.
Act1:26 And they put it to the decision of chance, and the decision was given for Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven Apostles.
Act2:2 And suddenly there came from heaven a sound like the rushing of a violent wind, and all the house where they were was full of it.
Act2:3 And they saw tongues, like flames of fire, coming to rest on every one of them.
Act2:4 And they were all full of the Holy Spirit, and were talking in different languages, as the Spirit gave them power.
Act2:8 And how is it that every one of us is hearing their words in the language which was ours from our birth?
Act2:9 Men of Parthia, Media, and Elam, and those living in Mesopotamia, in Judaea and Cappadocia, in Pontus and Asia,
Act2:11 Men of Crete and Arabia, to all of us they are talking in our different languages, of the great works of God.
Act2:13 But others, making sport of them, said, They are full of new wine.
Act2:14 But Peter, getting up, with the eleven, said in a loud voice, O men of Judaea, and all you who are living in Jerusalem, take note of this and give ear to my words.
Act2:15 For these men are not overcome with wine, as it seems to you, for it is only the third hour of the day;
Act2:17 And it will come about, in the last days, says God, that I will send out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will be prophets, and your young men will see visions, and your old men will have dreams:
Act2:18 And on my men-servants and my women-servants I will send my Spirit, and they will be prophets.
Act2:22 Men of Israel, give ear to these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man who had the approval of God, as was made clear to you by the great works and signs and wonders which God did by him among you, as you yourselves have knowledge,
Act2:23 Him, when he was given up, by the decision and knowledge of God, you put to death on the cross, by the hands of evil men:
Act2:29 My brothers, I may say to you openly that David came to his death, and was put in the earth, and his resting-place is with us today.
Act2:32 This Jesus God has given back to life, of which we all are witnesses.
Act2:33 And so, being lifted up to the right hand of God, and having the Father's word that the Holy Spirit would come, he has sent this thing, which now you see and have knowledge of.
Act2:36 For this reason, let all Israel be certain that this Jesus, whom you put to death on the cross, God has made Lord and Christ.
Act2:37 Now when these words came to their ears their hearts were troubled, and they said to Peter and the other Apostles, Brothers, what are we to do?
Act2:38 And Peter said, Let your hearts be changed, every one of you, and have baptism in the name of Jesus Christ, for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will have the Holy Spirit given to you.
Act2:39 For the word of God is for you and for your children and for all those who are far off, even all those who may be marked out by the Lord our God.
Act2:40 And with more such words he gave his witness, offering them salvation and saying, Come out from this evil generation.
Act2:46 And day by day, going in agreement together regularly to the Temple and, taking broken bread together in their houses, they took their food with joy and with true hearts,
Act2:47 Giving praise to God, and having the approval of all the people; and every day the number of those who had salvation was increased by the Lord.
Act3:3 He then, seeing Peter and John going into the Temple, made a request to them.
Act3:4 And Peter, looking at him, with John, said, Keep your eyes on us.
Act3:5 And he gave attention to them, hoping to get something from them.
Act3:8 And, jumping up, he got on to his feet and went into the Temple with them, walking and jumping and giving praise to God.
Act3:11 And while he kept his hands on Peter and John, all the people came running together to the covered way which is named Solomon's, full of wonder.
Act3:12 And when Peter saw it he said to the people, You men of Israel, why are you so greatly surprised at this man? or why are you looking at us as if by our power or virtue we had given him the use of his legs?
Act3:13 The God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has given glory to his servant Jesus; whom you gave up, turning your backs on him, when Pilate had made the decision to let him go free.
Act3:14 But you would have nothing to do with the Holy and Upright One, and made request for a man of blood to be given to you,
Act3:15 And put to death the Lord of life; whom God gave back from the dead; of which fact we are witnesses.
Act3:16 And his name, through faith in his name, has made this man strong, whom you see and have knowledge of: yes, the faith which is through him has made him well, before you all.
Act3:17 And now, my brothers, I am conscious that you did this, as did your rulers, without knowledge.
Act3:19 So then, let your hearts be changed and be turned to God, so that your sins may be completely taken away, and times of blessing may come from the Lord;
Act3:20 And that he may send the Christ who was marked out for you from the first, even Jesus:
Act3:22 For Moses said, The Lord will give you a prophet from among your people, like me; you will give ear to everything which he will say to you.
Act3:25 You are the sons of the prophets, and of the agreement which God made with your fathers, saying to Abraham, Through your seed a blessing will come on all the families of the earth.
Act3:26 To you, first, God sent his servant, blessing you by turning every one of you from his sins.
Act4:1 And while they were talking to the people, the priests and the captain of the Temple and the Sadducees came up to them,
Act4:2 Being greatly troubled because they were teaching the people and preaching Jesus as an example of the coming back from the dead.
Act4:3 And they took them and put them in prison till the morning, for it was now evening.
Act4:7 Then sending for Peter and John, they said, By what power and in whose name have you done this?
Act4:8 Then Peter, being full of the Holy Spirit, said to them, O you rulers of the people and men of authority,
Act4:9 If we are questioned today about a good work done to a man who was ill, as to how he has been made well,
Act4:10 Take note, all of you, and all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you put to death on the cross, whom God gave back from the dead, even through him is this man now before you completely well.
Act4:11 He is the stone which you builders had no use for, but which has been made the chief stone of the building.
Act4:12 And in no other is there salvation: for there is no other name under heaven, given among men, through which we may have salvation.
Act4:13 Now when they saw that Peter and John were without fear, though they were men of no education or learning, they were greatly surprised; and they took note of them that they had been with Jesus.
Act4:14 And, seeing that the man who had been made well was there with them, they were not able to say anything against it.
Act4:15 But when they had given them orders to go out of the Sanhedrin, they had a discussion among themselves,
Act4:16 Saying, What are we to do with these men? for certainly it is clear to all who are living in Jerusalem that a most important sign has been done by them, and it is not possible to say that it is not so.
Act4:17 But so that it may not go farther among the people, let us put them in fear of punishment if they say anything in future in this name.
Act4:18 And they sent for them, and gave them orders not to make statements or give teaching in the name of Jesus.
Act4:19 But Peter and John in answer said to them, It is for you to say if it is right in the eyes of God to give attention to you more than to God:
Act4:20 For it is not possible for us to keep from saying what we have seen and have knowledge of.
Act4:21 And when they had said more sharp words to them, they let them go, not seeing what punishment they might give them, because of the people; for all men were giving praise to God for what had taken place.
Act4:23 And when they had been made free, they came back to their friends, and gave an account of all the things which the chief priests and the authorities had said to them.
Act4:24 And hearing it, they all, with one mind, made prayer to God and said, O Lord, maker of heaven and earth and the sea and all things in them:
Act4:25 Who has said, by the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David your servant, Why are the nations so violently moved, and why are the thoughts of the people so foolish?
Act4:29 And now, Lord, take note of their cruel words, and give your servants power to be preachers of your word without fear,
Act4:31 And when their prayer was ended, the place where they were was violently moved, and they all became full of the Holy Spirit, preaching the word of God without fear.
Act5:8 And Peter said to her, Give me an answer: was this amount of money the price of the land? And she said, Yes, it was.
Act5:9 But Peter said to her, Why have you made an agreement together to be false to the Spirit of the Lord? See, the feet of the young men who have put the body of your husband in the earth, are at the door, and they will take you out.
Act5:12 Now a number of signs and wonders were done among the people by the hands of the Apostles; and they were all together in Solomon's covered way.
Act5:13 The others, in fear, kept back from joining them: but the people made much of them;
Act5:19 But in the night an angel of the Lord, opening the doors of the prison, took them out and said,
Act5:20 Go, take your place in the Temple and give the people all the teaching about this Life.
Act5:22 But the men who were sent saw that they were not in the prison, and came back with the news,
Act5:23 Saying, The doors of the prison were safely shut, and the keepers were at the doors, but when they were open, there was nobody inside.
Act5:25 And someone came and said to them, The men, whom you put in prison, are in the Temple teaching the people.
Act5:26 Then the captain and some of the police went and took them, but not violently, for fear that they might be stoned by the people.
Act5:27 And they took them into the Sanhedrin, and the high priest said to them,
Act5:28 We gave you very clear orders not to give teaching in this name: and now Jerusalem is full of your teaching, and you are attempting to make us responsible for this man's death.
Act5:30 The God of our fathers gave Jesus back to life, whom you had put to death, hanging him on a tree.
Act5:32 And we are witnesses of these things, and so is the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to those who keep his laws.
Act5:33 But when these words came to their ears, they were cut to the heart, and had a mind to put them to death.
Act5:35 And he said to them, Men of Israel, take care what you do about these men.
Act5:38 And now I say to you, Do nothing to these men, but let them be: for if this teaching or this work is of men, it will come to nothing:
Act5:39 But if it is of God, you will not be able to overcome them, and you are in danger of fighting against God.
Act5:40 And he seemed to them to be right: and they sent for the Apostles, and, after having them whipped and giving them orders to give no teaching in the name of Jesus, they let them go.
Act5:41 So they went away from the Sanhedrin, happy to undergo shame for the Name.
Act5:42 And every day, in the Temple and privately, they went on teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ.
Act6:1 Now in those days, when the number of the disciples was increasing, protests were made by the Greek Jews against the Hebrews, because their widows were not taken care of in the distribution of food every day.
Act6:2 And the Apostles sent for all the disciples and said, It is not right for us to give up preaching the word of God in order to make distribution of food.
Act6:3 Take then from among you seven men of good name, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, to whom we may give control of this business.
Act6:4 Then we will give all our time to prayer and the teaching of the word.
Act6:6 These they took to the Apostles, who, after prayer, put their hands on them.
Act6:11 Then they got men to say, He has said evil against Moses and against God, in our hearing.
Act6:12 And the people, with the rulers and the scribes, were moved against him, and they came and took him before the Sanhedrin,
Act6:14 For he has said in our hearing that this Jesus of Nazareth will put this place to destruction and make changes in the rules which were handed down to us by Moses.
Act7:2 And he said, My brothers and fathers, give hearing. The God of glory came to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he was living in Haran,
Act7:4 Then he came out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and went into Haran; and from there, when his father was dead, he was guided by God into this land, where you are living now:
Act7:6 And God said that his seed would be living in a strange land, and that they would make them servants, and be cruel to them for four hundred years.
Act7:7 And I will be the judge, said God, of that nation which made them servants: and after that, they will come out and give me worship in this place.
Act7:11 Now there was no food to be had in all Egypt and Canaan, and there was great trouble: and our fathers were not able to get food.
Act7:12 But Jacob, hearing that there was grain in Egypt, sent out our fathers the first time.
Act7:13 And the second time his brothers had a meeting with Joseph, and Pharaoh had knowledge of Joseph's family.
Act7:15 And Jacob went down to Egypt, and came to his end there, and so did our fathers;
Act7:19 He, having evil designs against our nation, was cruel to our fathers, and they were forced to put out their young children, so that they might not go on living.
Act7:24 And seeing one of them being attacked, he went to his help and gave the Egyptian a death-blow:
Act7:25 And he was hoping that his brothers would see that God had sent him to be their saviour; but they did not see.
Act7:26 And the day after, he came to them, while they were having a fight, and would have made peace between them, saying, Sirs, you are brothers; why do you do wrong to one another?
Act7:27 But the man who was doing wrong to his neighbour, pushing him away, said, Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
Act7:34 Truly, I have seen the sorrows of my people in Egypt, and their cries have come to my ears, and I have come down to make them free: and now, come, I will send you to Egypt.
Act7:35 This Moses, whom they would not have, saying, Who made you a ruler and a judge? him God sent to be a ruler and a saviour, by the hand of the angel whom he saw in the thorn-tree.
Act7:37 This is the same Moses, who said to the children of Israel, God will give you a prophet from among your brothers, like me.
Act7:38 This is the man who was in the church in the waste land with the angel who was talking to him in Sinai, and with our fathers; and to him were given the living words of God, so that he might give them to you.
Act7:39 By whom our fathers would not be controlled; but they put him on one side, turning back in their hearts to Egypt,
Act7:40 And saying to Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: as for this Moses, who took us out of the land of Egypt, we have no idea what has become of him.
Act7:41 And they made the image of a young ox in those days, and made an offering to it, and had joy in the work of their hands.
Act7:42 But God was turned from them and let them give worship to the stars of heaven, as it says in the book of the prophets, Did you make offerings to me of sheep and oxen for forty years in the waste land, O house of Israel?
Act7:43 And you took up the tent of Moloch and the star of the god Rephan, images which you made to give worship to them: and I will take you away, farther than Babylon.
Act7:44 Our fathers had the Tent of witness in the waste land, as God gave orders to Moses to make it after the design which he had seen.
Act7:45 Which our fathers, in their turn, took with them when, with Joshua, they came into the heritage of the nations whom God was driving out before the face of our fathers, till the time of David,
Act7:49 Heaven is the seat of my power, and earth is a resting-place for my feet: what sort of house will you make for me, says the Lord, or what is my place of rest?
Act7:51 You whose hearts are hard and whose ears are shut to me; you are ever working against the Holy Spirit; as your fathers did, so do you.
Act7:52 Which of the prophets was not cruelly attacked by your fathers? and they put to death those who gave them the news of the coming of the Upright One; whom you have now given up and put to death;
Act7:53 You, to whom the law was given as it was ordered by angels, and who have not kept it.
Act7:59 And Stephen, while he was being stoned, made prayer to God, saying, Lord Jesus, take my spirit.
Act7:60 And going down on his knees, he said in a loud voice, Lord, do not make them responsible for this sin. And when he had said this, he went to his rest.
Act8:7 For unclean spirits came out from those who had them, crying with a loud voice; and a number of those who were ill and broken in body were made well.
Act8:11 And they gave attention to him, because for a long time his wonder-working powers had kept them under his control.
Act8:12 But when they had faith in the good news given by Philip about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, a number of men and women had baptism.
Act8:14 Now when the Apostles at Jerusalem had news that the people of Samaria had taken the word of God into their hearts, they sent to them Peter and John;
Act8:15 Who, when they came there, made prayer for them, that the Holy Spirit might be given to them:
Act8:16 For up to that time he had not come on any of them; only baptism had been given to them in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Act8:17 Then they put their hands on them, and the Holy Spirit came on them.
Act8:24 And Simon, answering, said, Make prayer for me to the Lord, so that these things which you have said may not come on me.
Act9:21 And all those hearing him were full of wonder and said, Is not this the man who in Jerusalem was attacking all the worshippers of this name? and he had come here so that he might take them as prisoners before the chief priests.
Act9:24 But Saul got knowledge of their design. And they kept watch day and night on the roads out of the town, so that they might put him to death:
Act9:26 And when he came to Jerusalem, he made an attempt to be joined to the disciples, but they were all in fear of him, not taking him for a disciple.
Act9:29 Preaching in the name of the Lord without fear; and he had discussions with the Greek Jews; but they were working for his death.
Act9:30 And when the brothers had knowledge of it, they took him to Caesarea and sent him to Tarsus.
Act9:38 And because Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having knowledge that Peter was there, sent two men to him, requesting him to come to them straight away.
Act9:39 And Peter went with them. And when he had come, they took him into the room: and all the widows were there, weeping and putting before him the coats and clothing which Dorcas had made while she was with them.
Act9:40 But Peter made them all go outside, and went down on his knees in prayer; and turning to the body, he said, Tabitha, get up. And, opening her eyes, she saw Peter and got up.
Act9:41 And he took her hand, lifting her up; and, sending for the saints and widows, he gave her to them, living.
Act10:8 And having given them an account of everything, he sent them to Joppa.
Act10:9 Now the day after, when they were on their journey and were near the town, Peter went up to the top of the house for prayer, about the sixth hour:
Act10:20 Go down, then, and go with them, doubting nothing, for I have sent them.
Act10:21 And Peter went down to the men, and said, I am the man you are looking for: why have you come?
Act10:22 And they said, Cornelius, a captain, an upright and God-fearing man, respected by all the nation of the Jews, had word from God by an angel to send for you to his house, and to give hearing to your words.
Act10:23 So he took them in for the night. And the day after, he went with them, taking some of the brothers from Joppa with him.
Act10:24 And the day after that, they came to Caesarea. And Cornelius was waiting for them, having got together his relations and his near friends.
Act10:28 And he said to them, You yourselves have knowledge that it is against the law for a man who is a Jew to be in the company of one who is of another nation; but God has made it clear to me that no man may be named common or unclean:
Act10:29 And so I came without question, when I was sent for. What then is your purpose in sending for me?
Act10:33 So, straight away, I sent for you; and you have done well to come. And now, we are all present before God, ready to give attention to all the things which the Lord has given you to say.
Act10:38 About Jesus of Nazareth, how God gave the Holy Spirit to him, with power: and how he went about doing good and making well all who were troubled by evil spirits, for God was with him.
Act10:39 And we are witnesses of all the things which he did in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they put to death, hanging him on a tree.
Act10:41 Not by all the people, but by witnesses marked out before by God, even by us, who took food and drink with him after he came back from the dead.
Act10:42 And he gave us orders to give news of this to the people, and to give public witness that this is he whom God has made judge of the living and the dead.
Act10:46 And they were talking in tongues, and giving glory to God. Then Peter said,
Act10:47 Will any man say that these may not have baptism who have been given the Holy Spirit as we have?
Act10:48 And he gave orders for them to have baptism in the name of Jesus Christ. Then they kept him with them for some days.
Act11:3 Saying, You went to men without circumcision, and took food with them.
Act11:4 But Peter gave them an account of it all in order, saying to them,
Act11:11 And at that minute, three men, sent from Caesarea, came to the house where we were.
Act11:12 And the Spirit gave me orders to go with them, doubting nothing. And these six brothers came with me; and we went into that man's house:
Act11:13 And he gave us an account of how he had seen the angel in his house, saying, Send to Joppa, and get Simon, named Peter, to come to you;
Act11:15 And, while I was talking to them, the Holy Spirit came on them, as on us at first.
Act11:16 And the words of the Lord came into my mind, how he said, The baptism of John was with water, but you will have baptism with the Holy Spirit.
Act11:17 If then God gave them, when they had faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the same as he gave to us, who was I to go against God?
Act11:18 And hearing these things they said nothing more, but gave glory to God, saying, Then to the Gentiles as to us has God given a change of heart, so that they may have life.
Act11:19 Then those who had gone away at the time of the trouble about Stephen, went as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus, preaching to the Jews only.
Act11:20 But some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, when they came to Antioch, gave the good news about the Lord Jesus to the Greeks.
Act11:21 And the power of the Lord was with them, and a great number had faith and were turned to the Lord.
Act11:22 And news of them came to the ears of the church at Jerusalem: and they sent Barnabas as far as Antioch:
Act11:26 And when he had come across him, he took him to Antioch. And they were with the church there for a year, teaching the people; and the disciples were first given the name of Christians in Antioch.
Act11:30 Which they did, sending it to the rulers of the church by the hand of Barnabas and Saul.
Act12:10 And when they had gone past the first and second watchmen they came to the iron door into the town, which came open by itself: and they went out and down one street; and then the angel went away.
Act12:15 And they said to her, You are off your head. But still she said, with decision, that it was so. And they said, It is his angel.
Act12:16 But Peter went on giving blows on the door: and when it was open and they saw him, they were full of wonder.
Act12:17 But he made a sign to them with his hand to be quiet, and gave them an account of how the Lord had taken him out of prison. And he said, Give the news to James and the brothers. And then he went away.
Act12:19 And Herod, when he sent for him, and he was not there, after questioning the watchmen, gave orders that they were to be put to death. Then he went down from Judaea to Caesarea for a time.
Act12:20 Now he was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon: and they came to him, all together, and having made friends with Blastus, the controller of the king's house, they made a request for peace, because their country was dependent on the king's country for its food.
Act12:21 And on the day which had been fixed, Herod, dressed in his robes and seated in his place, made a public statement to them.
Act12:25 And Barnabas and Saul came back from Jerusalem, when their work was ended, taking with them John named Mark.
Act13:2 And while they were doing the Lord's work, and going without food, the Holy Spirit said, Let Barnabas and Saul be given to me for the special work for which they have been marked out by me.
Act13:3 Then, after prayer and going without food they put their hands on them, and sent them away.
Act13:4 So, being sent out by the Holy Spirit, they went down to Seleucia; and from there they went by ship to Cyprus.
Act13:5 And at Salamis they were preaching the word of God in the Synagogues of the Jews: and John was with them, helping them.
Act13:13 Then Paul and those who were with him went by ship from Paphos and came to Perga in Pamphylia: and there John went away from them and came back to Jerusalem.
Act13:14 But they, going through from Perga, came to Antioch in Pisidia; and they went into the Synagogue on the Sabbath and were seated.
Act13:15 And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the rulers of the Synagogue sent to them, saying, Brothers, if you have a word of comfort for the people, say on.
Act13:17 The God of this people Israel made selection of our fathers, lifting the people up from their low condition when they were living in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm took them out of it.
Act13:18 And for about forty years he put up with their ways in the waste land.
Act13:19 And having put to destruction seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them the land for their heritage for about four hundred and fifty years.
Act13:20 And after these things he gave them judges, till the time of Samuel the prophet.
Act13:21 Then at their request for a king, God gave them Saul, the son of Kish, a man of the family of Benjamin, who was their king for forty years.
Act13:22 And having put him on one side, he made David their king, to whom he gave witness, saying, I have taken David, the son of Jesse, a man dear to my heart, who will do all my pleasure.
Act13:25 And when John was completing his work, he said, What do I seem to you to be? I am not he; but one is coming after me, whose shoes I am not good enough to undo.
Act13:26 My brothers, children of the family of Abraham, and those among you who have the fear of God, to us the word of this salvation is sent.
Act13:27 For the men of Jerusalem and their rulers, having no knowledge of him, or of the sayings of the prophets which come to their ears every Sabbath day, gave effect to them by judging him.
Act13:32 And we are giving you the good news of the undertaking made to the fathers,
Act13:33 Which God has now put into effect for our children, by sending Jesus; as it says in the second Psalm, You are my Son; this day I have given you being.
Act13:34 And about his coming back from the dead, never again to go to destruction, he has said these words, I will give you the holy and certain mercies of David.
Act13:38 And so, let it be clear to you, my brothers, that through this man forgiveness of sins is offered to you:
Act13:39 And through him everyone who has faith is made free from all those things, from which the law of Moses was not able to make you free.
Act13:40 So take care that these words of the prophets do not come true for you;
Act13:41 See, you doubters, have wonder and come to your end; for I will do a thing in your days to which you will not give belief, even if it is made clear to you.
Act13:42 And when they went out, they made a request that these words might be said to them again on the Sabbath after.
Act13:43 Now when the meeting was ended, a number of the Jews and of the God-fearing Gentiles who had become Jews, went after Paul and Barnabas: who put before them how important it was to keep on in the grace of God.
Act13:46 Then Paul and Barnabas without fear said, It was necessary for the word of God to be given to you first; but because you will have nothing to do with it, and have no desire for eternal life, it will now be offered to the Gentiles.
Act13:47 For so the Lord has given us orders, saying, I have given you for a light to the Gentiles so that you may be for salvation to the ends of the earth.
Act13:50 But the Jews, working up the feelings of the God-fearing women of high position and of the chief men of the town, got an attack started against Paul and Barnabas, driving them out of those parts.
Act14:2 But those Jews who had not the faith, made the minds of the Gentiles bitter against the brothers.
Act14:3 So they kept there for a long time, taking heart in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace by causing signs and wonders to be done by their hands.
Act14:5 And when a violent attempt was made by the Gentiles and the Jews, with their rulers, to make an attack on them and have them stoned,
Act14:11 And when the people saw what Paul had done, they said in a loud voice, in the language of Lycaonia, The gods have come down to us in the form of men.
Act14:15 Good people, why are you doing these things? We are men with the same feelings as you, and we give you the good news so that you may be turned away from these foolish things to the living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all things in them:
Act14:17 But he was not without witness, because he did good, and gave you rain from heaven and times of fruit, making your hearts full of food and joy.
Act14:18 And even with these words, it was hard for them to keep the people from making an offering to them.
Act14:22 Making strong the souls of the disciples, saying to them that they were to keep the faith, and that we have to go through troubles of all sorts to come into the kingdom of God.
Act14:23 And when they had made selection of some to be rulers in every church, and had given themselves to prayer and kept themselves from food, they put them into the care of the Lord in whom they had faith.
Act14:26 And from there they went by ship to Antioch, where they had been handed over to the grace of God for the work which they had not done.
Act14:27 And when they came there, and had got the church together, they gave them an account of all the things which God had done through them, and how he had made open a door of faith to the Gentiles.
Act15:1 Now certain men came down from Judaea, teaching the brothers and saying that without circumcision, after the rule of Moses, there is no salvation.
Act15:2 And after Paul and Barnabas had had no little argument and discussion with them, the brothers made a decision to send Paul and Barnabas and certain others of them to the Apostles and the rulers of the church at Jerusalem about this question.
Act15:3 So they, being sent on their way by the church, went through Phoenicia and Samaria, giving news of the salvation of the Gentiles, to the great joy of all the brothers.
Act15:4 And when they came to Jerusalem, they had a meeting with the church and the Apostles and the rulers, and they gave an account of all the things which God had done through them.
Act15:5 But some of the Pharisees, who were of the faith, got up and said, It is necessary for these to have circumcision and to keep the law of Moses.
Act15:7 And when there had been much discussion, Peter got up and said to them, My brothers, you have knowledge that some time back it was God's pleasure that by my mouth the good news might be given to the Gentiles so that they might have faith.
Act15:8 And God, the searcher of hearts, was a witness to them, giving them the Holy Spirit even as he did to us;
Act15:9 Making no division between them and us, but making clean their hearts by faith.
Act15:10 Why then are you testing God, by putting on the neck of the disciples a yoke so hard that not even our fathers or we were strong enough for it?
Act15:11 But we have faith that we will get salvation through the grace of the Lord Jesus in the same way as they.
Act15:12 And all the people were quiet while Barnabas and Paul gave an account of the signs and wonders which God had done among the Gentiles by them.
Act15:13 And when they had come to an end, James, answering, said, My brothers, give ear to me:
Act15:14 Symeon has given an account of how God was first pleased to take from among the Gentiles a people for himself.
Act15:20 But that we give them orders to keep themselves from things offered to false gods, and from the evil desires of the body, and from the flesh of animals put to death in ways against the law, and from blood.
Act15:22 Then it seemed good to the Apostles and the rulers and all the church, to send men from among them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; Judas, named Barsabbas, and Silas, chief men among the brothers:
Act15:23 And they sent a letter by them, saying, The Apostles and the older brothers, to the brothers who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, may joy be with you:
Act15:24 Because we have knowledge that some who went from us have been troubling you with their words, putting your souls in doubt; to whom we gave no such order;
Act15:25 It seemed good to us, having come to an agreement together, to send these men to you, with our well loved Barnabas and Paul,
Act15:27 And so we have sent Judas and Silas, who will say the same things to you themselves, by word of mouth.
Act15:28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us, to put on you nothing more than these necessary things;
Act15:29 To keep from things offered to false gods, and from blood, and from things put to death in ways which are against the law, and from the evil desires of the body; if you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. May you be happy.
Act15:30 So they, being sent away, came down to Antioch, and having got the people together, they gave them the letter.
Act15:32 And Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, gave teaching to the brothers and made them strong in the faith.
Act15:33 And when they had been there for some time, they were sent back in peace by the brothers to those who had sent them.
Act15:36 And after some days, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go back and see the brothers in every town where we have given the word of God, and see how they are.
Act15:38 But Paul was of the opinion that it was not right to take with them one who had gone away from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone on with the work.
Act15:40 But Paul took Silas and went away with the blessing of the brothers.
Act16:4 And on their way through the towns, they gave them the rules which had been made by the Apostles and the rulers of the church at Jerusalem, so that they might keep them.
Act16:6 And after they had gone through the land of Phrygia and Galatia, the Holy Spirit did not let them take the word into Asia;
Act16:7 And having come to Mysia, they made an attempt to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not let them;
Act16:8 And going past Mysia, they came down to Troas.
Act16:9 And Paul had a vision in the night; a man of Macedonia came, requesting him, and saying, Come over into Macedonia and give us help.
Act16:10 And when he had seen the vision, straight away we made the decision to go into Macedonia, for it seemed certain to us that God had sent us to give the good news to them.
Act16:12 And from there to Philippi, which is the most important town of Macedonia and a Roman colony: and we were there for some days.
Act16:13 And on the Sabbath we went outside the town, by the river, where we had an idea that there would be a place of prayer; and, being seated, we had talk with the women who had come together.
Act16:15 And when she and her family had had baptism, she made a request to us, saying, If it seems to you that I am true to the Lord, come into my house and be my guests. And she made us come.
Act16:16 And when we were going to the place of prayer, we came across a girl with a spirit which gave knowledge of the future, whose masters made great profit from her power.
Act16:17 She came after Paul and us, crying out and saying, These men are the servants of the Most High God, who are giving you news of the way of salvation.
Act16:19 But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they took Paul and Silas, pulling them into the market-place before the rulers;
Act16:20 And when they had taken them before the authorities, they said, These men, who are Jews, are greatly troubling our town;
Act16:21 Teaching rules of living which it is not right for us to have or to keep, being Romans.
Act16:22 And the people made an attack on them all together: and the authorities took their clothing off them, and gave orders for them to be whipped.
Act16:23 And when they had given them a great number of blows, they put them in prison, giving orders to the keeper of the prison to keep them safely:
Act16:24 And he, having such orders, put them into the inner prison with chains on their feet.
Act16:28 But Paul said in a loud voice, Do yourself no damage, for we are all here.
Act16:30 And took them out and said, Sirs, what have I to do to get salvation?
Act16:31 And they said, Have faith in the Lord Jesus, and you and your family will have salvation.
Act16:32 And they gave the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house.
Act16:33 And that same hour of the night, he took them, and when he had given attention to their wounds, he and all his family had baptism straight away.
Act16:34 And he took them into his house and gave them food, and he was full of joy, having faith in God with all his family.
Act16:36 And the keeper said to Paul, The authorities have given orders to let you go: come out now, and go in peace.
Act16:37 But Paul said to them, They have given us who are Romans a public whipping without judging us, and have put us in prison. Will they now send us out secretly? no, truly, let them come themselves and take us out.
Act16:38 And the police gave an account of these words to the authorities, and they were full of fear on hearing that they were Romans;
Act16:39 Then they came and made prayers to them, requesting them, when they had taken them out, to go away from the town.
Act16:40 And they came out of the prison and went to the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brothers they gave them comfort and went away.
Act17:2 And Paul, as he generally did, went in to them, and on three Sabbath days had discussions with them from the holy Writings,
Act17:3 Saying to them clearly and openly that Christ had to be put to death and come back to life again; and that this Jesus, whom, he said, I am preaching to you, is the Christ.
Act17:4 And some of them had faith, and were joined to Paul and Silas; and a number of the God-fearing Greeks, and some of the chief women.
Act17:6 And when they were not able to get them, they took Jason and some of the brothers by force before the rulers of the town, crying, These men, who have made trouble all over the world have now come here;
Act17:7 Whom Jason has taken into his house: and they are acting against the orders of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus.
Act17:9 And having made Jason and the others give an undertaking to keep the peace, they let them go.
Act17:10 And the brothers straight away sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroea: and they, when they came there, went to the Synagogue of the Jews.
Act17:12 And a number of them had faith, and no small number of the Greek women of high position and of the men.
Act17:14 So the brothers sent Paul straight away to the sea: but Silas and Timothy kept there still.
Act17:16 Now while Paul was waiting for them at Athens, his spirit was troubled, for he saw all the town full of images of the gods.
Act17:19 And they took him to Mars' Hill, saying, Will you make clear to us what is this new teaching of yours?
Act17:20 For you seem to us to say strange things, and we have a desire to get the sense of them.
Act17:22 And Paul got to his feet on Mars' Hill and said, O men of Athens, I see that you are overmuch given to fear of the gods.
Act17:23 For when I came by, I was looking at the things to which you give worship, and I saw an altar with this writing on it, TO THE GOD OF WHOM THERE IS NO KNOWLEDGE. Now, what you, without knowledge, give worship to, I make clear to you.
Act17:26 And he has made of one blood all the nations of men living on all the face of the earth, ordering their times and the limits of their lands,
Act17:27 So that they might make search for God, in order, if possible, to get knowledge of him and make discovery of him, though he is not far from every one of us:
Act17:28 For in him we have life and motion and existence; as certain of your verse writers have said, For we are his offspring.
Act17:29 If then we are the offspring of God, it is not right for us to have the idea that God is like gold or silver or stone, formed by the art or design of man.
Act17:32 Now on hearing about the coming back from death, some of them made sport of it, but others said, Let us go more fully into this another time.
Act17:33 And so Paul went away from among them.
Act18:2 And there he came across a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by birth, who not long before had come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had given orders that all Jews were to go away from Rome: and he came to them;
Act18:3 And because he was of the same trade, he was living with them, and they did their work together; for by trade they were tent-makers.
Act18:6 And when they put themselves against him, and said evil words, he said, shaking his clothing, Your blood be on your heads, I am clean: from now I will go to the Gentiles.
Act18:11 And he was there for a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
Act18:14 But when Paul was about to say something, Gallio said to the Jews, If this was anything to do with wrongdoing or crime, there would be a reason for me to give you a hearing:
Act18:15 But if it is a question of words or names or of your law, see to it yourselves; I will not be a judge of such things.
Act18:16 And he sent them away from the judge's seat.
Act18:19 And they came down to Ephesus and he left them there: and he himself went into the Synagogue and had a discussion with the Jews.
Act18:21 And went from them, saying, I will come back to you if God lets me; and he took ship from Ephesus.
Act18:27 And when he had a desire to go over into Achaia, the brothers gave him help, and sent letters to the disciples requesting them to take him in among them: and when he had come, he gave much help to those who had faith through grace:
Act19:2 And he said to them, Did you get the Holy Spirit when you had faith? And they said to him, No, we have had no knowledge of the Holy Spirit.
Act19:3 And he said, What sort of baptism did you have? And they said, The baptism of John.
Act19:5 And hearing this, they had baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Act19:6 And when Paul had put his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they had the power of talking in tongues, and acting like prophets.
Act19:9 But because some of the people were hard-hearted and would not give hearing, saying evil words about the Way before the people, he went away from them, and kept the disciples separate, reasoning every day in the school of Tyrannus.
Act19:13 But some of the Jews who went from place to place driving out evil spirits, took it on themselves to make use of the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, I give you orders, by Jesus, whom Paul is preaching.
Act19:15 And the evil spirit, answering, said to them, I have knowledge of Jesus, and of Paul, but who are you?
Act19:16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was, jumping on them, was stronger than the two of them, and overcame them, so that they went running from that house, wounded and without their clothing.
Act19:19 And a great number of those who were experts in strange arts took their books and put them on the fire in front of everyone: and when the books were valued they came to fifty thousand bits of silver.
Act19:25 Whom he got together, with other workmen of the same trade, and said to them, Men, it is clear that from this business we get our wealth.
Act19:26 And you see, for it has come to your ears, that not only at Ephesus, but almost all through Asia, this Paul has been teaching numbers of people and turning them away, saying that those are not gods who are made by men's hands:
Act19:27 And there is danger, not only that our trade may be damaged in the opinion of men, but that the holy place of the great goddess Diana may be no longer honoured, and that she to whom all Asia and the world give worship, will be put down from her high position.
Act19:34 But when they saw that he was a Jew, all of them with one voice went on crying out for about two hours, Great is Diana of Ephesus.
Act19:36 So then, because these things may not be doubted, it would be better for you to be quiet, and do nothing unwise.
Act19:37 For you have taken these men, who are not doing damage to the holy place or talking against our goddess.
Act19:39 But if any other business is in question, let it be taken up in the regular meeting.
Act19:40 For, truly, we are in danger of being made responsible for this day's trouble, there being no cause for it: and we are not able to give any reason for this coming together. And when he had said this, he sent the meeting away.
Act20:2 And when he had gone through those parts and given them much teaching, he came into Greece.
Act20:6 And we went away from Philippi by ship after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them at Troas in five days; and we were there for seven days.
Act20:7 And on the first day of the week, when we had come together for the holy meal, Paul gave them a talk, for it was his purpose to go away on the day after; and he went on talking till after the middle of the night.
Act20:8 And there were a number of lights in the room where we had come together.
Act20:9 And a certain young man named Eutychus, who was seated in the window, went into a deep sleep; and while Paul went on talking, being overcome by sleep, he had a fall from the third floor, and was taken up dead.
Act20:11 And when he had gone up, and had taken the broken bread, he went on talking to them for a long time, even till dawn, and then he went away.
Act20:14 And when he came up with us at Assos, we took him in the ship and went on to Mitylene.
Act20:15 And going from there by sea, we came on the day after opposite Chios, and touching at Samos on the day after that, we came on the third day to Miletus.
Act20:19 Doing the Lord's work without pride, through all the sorrow and troubles which came on me because of the evil designs of the Jews:
Act20:21 Preaching to Jews and to Greeks the need for a turning of the heart to God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Act20:26 And so I say to you this day that I am clean from the blood of all men.
Act20:27 For I have not kept back from you anything of the purpose of God.
Act20:28 Give attention to yourselves, and to all the flock which the Holy Spirit has given into your care, to give food to the church of God, for which he gave his blood.
Act20:29 I am conscious that after I am gone, evil wolves will come in among you, doing damage to the flock;
Act20:30 And from among yourselves will come men who will give wrong teaching, turning away the disciples after them.
Act20:31 So keep watch, having in mind that for three years without resting I was teaching every one of you, day and night, with weeping.
Act20:32 And now, I give you into the care of God and the word of his grace, which is able to make you strong and to give you your heritage among all the saints.
Act20:33 I have had no desire for any man's silver or gold or clothing.
Act20:35 In all things I was an example to you of how, in your lives, you are to give help to the feeble, and keep in memory the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, There is a greater blessing in giving than in getting.
Act20:36 And having said these words, he went down on his knees in prayer with them all.
Act21:1 And after parting from them, we put out to sea and came straight to Cos, and the day after to Rhodes, and from there to Patara:
Act21:2 And as there was a ship going to Phoenicia, we went in it.
Act21:4 And meeting the disciples we were there for seven days: and they gave Paul orders through the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem.
Act21:5 And when these days came to an end, we went on our journey; and they all, with their wives and children, came with us on our way till we were out of the town: and after going on our knees in prayer by the sea,
Act21:6 We said our last words to one another, and got into the ship, and they went back to their houses.
Act21:7 And journeying by ship from Tyre we came to Ptolemais; and there we had talk with the brothers and were with them for one day.
Act21:8 And on the day after, we went away and came to Caesarea, where we were guests in the house of Philip, the preacher, who was one of the seven.
Act21:9 And he had four daughters, virgins, who were prophets.
Act21:11 And he came to us, and took the band of Paul's clothing, and putting it round his feet and hands, said, The Holy Spirit says these words, So will the Jews do to the man who is the owner of this band, and they will give him up into the hands of the Gentiles.
Act21:12 And hearing these things, we and those who were living in that place made request to him not to go to Jerusalem.
Act21:13 Then Paul said, What are you doing, weeping and wounding my heart? for I am ready, not only to be a prisoner, but to be put to death at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
Act21:14 And as he might not be moved we did no more, saying, Let the purpose of God be done.
Act21:15 And after these days we got ready and went up to Jerusalem.
Act21:16 And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, taking a certain Mnason of Cyprus, one of the early disciples, in whose house we were to be living.
Act21:17 And when we came to Jerusalem, the brothers were pleased to see us.
Act21:18 And on the day after, Paul went with us to James, and all the rulers of the church were present.
Act21:19 And when he had said how glad he was to see them, he gave them a detailed account of the things which God had done through his work among the Gentiles.
Act21:20 And hearing it, they gave praise to God; and they said to him, You see, brother, what thousands there are among the Jews, who have the faith; and they all have a great respect for the law:
Act21:21 And they have had news of you, how you have been teaching all the Jews among the Gentiles to give up the law of Moses, and not to give circumcision to their children, and not to keep the old rules.
Act21:22 What then is the position? They will certainly get news that you have come.
Act21:24 Go with these, and make yourself clean with them, and make the necessary payments for them, so that they may be free from their oath: and everyone will see that the statements made about you are not true, but that you put yourself under rule, and keep the law.
Act21:25 But as to the Gentiles who have the faith, we sent a letter, giving our decision that they were to keep themselves from offerings made to false gods, and from blood, and from the flesh of animals put to death in ways against the law, and from the evil desires of the body.
Act21:26 Then Paul took the men, and on the day after, making himself clean with them, he went into the Temple, giving out the statement that the days necessary for making them clean were complete, till the offering was made for every one of them.
Act21:27 And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the Temple, got the people together and put their hands on him,
Act21:29 For they had seen him before in the town with Trophimus of Ephesus, and had the idea that Paul had taken him with him into the Temple.
Act21:30 And all the town was moved, and the people came running together and put their hands on Paul, pulling him out of the Temple: and then the doors were shut.
Act21:32 And straight away he took some armed men and went quickly down to them: and the Jews, seeing them, gave no more blows to Paul.
Act21:33 Then the chief captain came near and took him, and gave orders for him to be put in chains, questioning them as to who he was and what he had done.
Act22:1 My brothers and fathers, give ear to the story of my life which I now put before you.
Act22:2 And, hearing him talking in the Hebrew language, they became the more quiet, and he said,
Act22:4 And I made attacks on this Way, even to death, taking men and women and putting them in prison.
Act22:6 And it came about that while I was on my journey, coming near to Damascus, about the middle of the day, suddenly I saw a great light from heaven shining round me.
Act22:15 For you will be a witness for him to all men of what you have seen and of what has come to your ears.
Act22:20 And when Stephen your witness was put to death, I was there, giving approval, and looking after the clothing of those who put him to death.
Act22:25 And when they had put leather bands round him, Paul said to the captain who was present, Is it the law for you to give blows to a man who is a Roman and has not been judged?
Act22:26 And hearing this, the man went to the chief captain and gave him an account of it, saying, What are you about to do? for this man is a Roman.
Act23:1 And Paul, looking fixedly at the Sanhedrin, said, My brothers, my life has been upright before God till this day.
Act23:2 And the high priest, Ananias, gave orders to those who were near him to give him a blow on the mouth.
Act23:6 But when Paul saw that half of them were Sadducees and the rest Pharisees, he said in the Sanhedrin, Brothers, I am a Pharisee, and the son of Pharisees: I am here to be judged on the question of the hope of the coming back from the dead.
Act23:7 And when he had said this, there was an argument between the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and a division in the meeting.
Act23:10 And when the argument became very violent, the chief captain, fearing that Paul would be pulled in two by them, gave orders to the armed men to take him by force from among them, and take him into the army building.
Act23:11 And the night after, the Lord came to his side and said, Be of good heart, for as you have been witnessing for me in Jerusalem, so will you be my witness in Rome.
Act23:15 So now, will you and the Sanhedrin make a request to the military authorities to have him sent down to you, as if you were desiring to go into the business in greater detail; and we, before ever he gets to you, will be waiting to put him to death.
Act23:16 But Paul's sister's son had word of their design, and he came into the army building and gave news of it to Paul.
Act23:17 And Paul sent for a captain and said, Take this young man to your chief, for he has news for him.
Act23:22 So the chief captain let the young man go, saying to him, Do not say to anyone that you have given me word of these things.
Act23:29 Then it became clear to me that it was a question of their law, and that nothing was said against him which might be a reason for prison or death.
Act23:30 And when news was given to me that a secret design was being made against the man, I sent him straight away to you, giving orders to those who are against him to make their statements before you.
Act23:32 But on the day after, they sent the horsemen on with him, and went back to their place:
Act23:33 And they, when they came to Caesarea, gave the letter to the ruler, and took Paul before him.
Act24:4 But, so that I may not make you tired, I make a request to you of your mercy, to give hearing to a short statement.
Act24:5 For this man, in our opinion, is a cause of trouble, a maker of attacks on the government among Jews through all the empire, and a chief mover in the society of the Nazarenes:
Act24:6 Who, in addition, was attempting to make the Temple unclean: whom we took,
Act24:7 []
Act24:8 And from whom you will be able, by questioning him yourself, to get knowledge of all the things which we say against him.
Act24:9 And the Jews were in agreement with his statement, saying that these things were so.
Act24:13 And they are not able to give facts in support of the things which they say against me now.
Act24:14 But this I will say openly to you, that I do give worship to the God of our fathers after that Way, which to them is not the true religion: but I have belief in all the things which are in the law and in the books of the prophets:
Act24:15 Hoping in God for that which they themselves are looking for, that there will be a coming back from the dead for upright men and wrongdoers.
Act24:16 And in this, I do my best at all times to have no reason for shame before God or men.
Act24:19 And it would have been better if they had come here to make a statement, if they have anything against me.
Act24:20 Or let these men here present say what wrongdoing was seen in me when I was before the Sanhedrin,
Act24:21 But only this one thing which I said among them in a loud voice, I am this day being judged on the question of the coming back from the dead.
Act24:22 But Felix, who had a more detailed knowledge of the Way, put them off, saying, When Lysias, the chief captain, comes down, I will give attention to your business.
Act24:23 And he gave orders to the captain to keep Paul under his control, and to let him have everything he had need of; and not to keep his friends from coming to see him.
Act25:4 But Festus, in answer, said that Paul was being kept in prison at Caesarea, and that in a short time he himself was going there.
Act25:6 And when he had been with them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea; and on the day after, he took his place on the judge's seat, and sent for Paul.
Act25:7 And when he came, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem came round him, and made all sorts of serious statements against him, which were not supported by the facts.
Act25:12 Then Festus, having had a discussion with the Jews, made answer, You have said, Let my cause come before Caesar; to Caesar you will go.
Act25:17 So, when they had come together here, straight away, on the day after, I took my place on the judge's seat and sent for the man.
Act25:18 But when they got up they said nothing about such crimes as I had in mind:
Act25:20 And as I had not enough knowledge for the discussion of these things, I made the suggestion to him to go to Jerusalem and be judged there.
Act25:25 But, in my opinion, there is no cause of death in him, and as he himself has made a request to be judged by Caesar, I have said that I would send him.
Act25:27 For it seems to me against reason to send a prisoner without making clear what there is against him.
Act26:4 All the Jews have knowledge of my way of life from my early years, as it was from the start among my nation, and at Jerusalem;
Act26:6 And now I am here to be judged because of the hope given by God's word to our fathers;
Act26:7 For the effecting of which our twelve tribes have been working and waiting night and day with all their hearts. And in connection with this hope I am attacked by the Jews, O king!
Act26:8 Why, in your opinion, is it outside belief for God to make the dead come to life again?
Act26:9 For I, truly, was of the opinion that it was right for me to do a number of things against the name of Jesus of Nazareth.
Act26:11 And I gave them punishment frequently, in all the Synagogues, forcing them to say things against God; and burning with passion against them, I went after them even into far-away towns.
Act26:12 Then, when I was journeying to Damascus with the authority and orders of the chief priests,
Act26:15 And I said, Who are you, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus, whom you are attacking.
Act26:19 So, then, King Agrippa, I did not go against the vision from heaven;
Act26:21 For this reason, the Jews took me in the Temple, and made an attempt to put me to death.
Act27:2 And we went to sea in a ship of Adramyttium which was sailing to the sea towns of Asia, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
Act27:3 And on the day after, we came to Sidon; and Julius was kind to Paul, and let him go to see his friends and take a rest.
Act27:4 And sailing again from there, we went on under cover of Cyprus, because the wind was against us.
Act27:7 And when we had gone on slowly for a long time, and had had hard work getting across to Cnidus, for the wind was against us, we went under cover of Crete, in the direction of Salmone;
Act27:9 And as a long time had gone by, and the journey was now full of danger, because it was late in the year, Paul put the position before them,
Act27:11 But the captain gave more attention to the master and the owner of the ship than to what Paul said.
Act27:14 But after a little time, a very violent wind, named Euraquilo, came down from it with great force.
Act27:16 And, sailing near the side of a small island named Cauda, we were able, though it was hard work, to make the ship's boat safe:
Act27:19 And on the third day, they let all the sailing apparatus go over the side.
Act27:20 And as we had not seen the sun or stars for a long time, and a great storm was on us, all hope of salvation was gone.
Act27:21 And when they had been without food for a long time, Paul got up among them and said, Friends, it would have been better if you had given attention to me and not gone sailing out from Crete, to undergo this damage and loss.
Act27:22 But now, I say to you, be of good heart, for there will be no loss of life, but only of the ship.
Act27:23 For this night there came to my side an angel of the God who is my Master and whose servant I am,
Act27:27 But when the fourteenth day came, while we were going here and there in the Adriatic sea, about the middle of the night the sailors had an idea that they were getting near land;
Act27:32 Then the armed men, cutting the cords of the boat, let her go.
Act27:34 So I make request to you to take food; for this is for your salvation: not a hair from the head of any of you will come to destruction.
Act27:35 And when he had said this and had taken bread, he gave praise to God before them all, and took a meal of the broken bread.
Act27:37 And we were, in the ship, two hundred and seventy-six persons.
Act27:38 And when they had had enough food, they made the weight of the ship less, turning the grain out into the sea.
Act27:39 And when it was day, they had no knowledge of the land, but they saw an inlet of the sea with a floor of sand, and they had the idea of driving the ship up on to it if possible.
Act27:40 So cutting away the hooks, and letting them go into the sea, and freeing the cords of the guiding-blades, and lifting up the sail to the wind, they went in the direction of the inlet.
Act27:44 And the rest, some on boards and some on things from the ship. And so it came about that they all got safe to land.
Act28:2 And the simple people living there were uncommonly kind to us, for they made a fire for us, and took us in, because it was raining and cold.
Act28:3 But when Paul had got some sticks together and put them on the fire, a snake came out, because of the heat, and gave him a bite on the hand.
Act28:8 And the father of Publius was ill, with a disease of the stomach; to whom Paul went, and put his hands on him, with prayer, and made him well.
Act28:11 And after three months we went to sea in a ship of Alexandria sailing under the sign of the Dioscuri, which had been at the island for the winter.
Act28:12 And going into the harbour at Syracuse, we were waiting there for three days.
Act28:13 And from there, going about in a curve, we came to Rhegium: and after one day a south wind came up and on the day after we came to Puteoli:
Act28:15 And the brothers, when they had news of us, came out from town as far as Appii Forum and the Three Taverns to have a meeting with us: and Paul, seeing them, gave praise to God and took heart.
Act28:16 And when we came into Rome, they let Paul have a house for himself and the armed man who kept watch over him.
Act28:18 Who, when they had put questions to me, were ready to let me go free, because there was no cause of death in me.
Act28:19 But when the Jews made protest against it, I had to put my cause into Caesar's hands; not because I have anything to say against my nation.
Act28:21 And they said to him, We have not had letters from Judaea about you, and no one of the brothers has come to us here to give an account or say any evil about you.
Act28:22 But we have a desire to give hearing to your opinion: for as to this form of religion, we have knowledge that in all places it is attacked.
Act28:23 And when a day had been fixed, they came to his house in great numbers; and he gave them teaching, giving witness to the kingdom of God, and having discussions with them about Jesus, from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning till evening.
Act28:24 And some were in agreement with what he said, but some had doubts.
Act28:26 Go to this people and say, Though you give ear, you will not get knowledge; and seeing, you will see, but the sense will not be clear to you:
Act28:27 For the heart of this people has become fat and their ears are slow in hearing and their eyes are shut; for fear that they might see with their eyes and give hearing with their ears and become wise in their hearts and be turned again to me, so that I might make them well.
Act28:28 Be certain, then, that the salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will give hearing.
Act28:29 []
Rom1:5 Through whom grace has been given to us, sending us out to make disciples to the faith among all nations, for his name:
Rom1:6 Among whom you in the same way have been marked out to be disciples of Jesus Christ:
Rom1:7 To all those who are in Rome, loved by God, marked out as saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Rom1:8 First of all, I give praise to my God through Jesus Christ for you all, because news of your faith has gone into all the world.
Rom1:9 For God is my witness, whose servant I am in spirit in the good news of his Son, that you are at all times in my memory and in my prayers,
Rom1:10 And that I am ever making prayers that God will give me a good journey to you.
Rom1:11 For I have a strong desire to see you, and to give you some grace of the spirit, so that you may be made strong;
Rom1:12 That is to say, that all of us may be comforted together by the faith which is in you and in me.
Rom1:13 You may be certain, my brothers, that it has frequently been in my mind to come to you (but till now I was kept from it), so that I might have some fruit from you in the same way as I have had it from the other nations.
Rom1:14 I have a debt to Greeks and to the nations outside; to the wise and to those who have no learning.
Rom1:15 For which reason I have the desire, as far as I am able, to give the knowledge of the good news to you who are in Rome.
Rom1:19 Because the knowledge of God may be seen in them, God having made it clear to them.
Rom1:21 Because, having the knowledge of God, they did not give glory to God as God, and did not give praise, but their minds were full of foolish things, and their hearts, being without sense, were made dark.
Rom1:24 For this reason God gave them up to the evil desires of their hearts, working shame in their bodies with one another:
Rom1:25 Because by them the true word of God was changed into that which is false, and they gave worship and honour to the thing which is made, and not to him who made it, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it.
Rom1:26 For this reason God gave them up to evil passions, and their women were changing the natural use into one which is unnatural:
Rom1:28 And because they had not the mind to keep God in their knowledge, God gave them up to an evil mind, to do those things which are not right;
Rom1:32 Who, though they have knowledge of the law of God, that the fate of those who do these things is death, not only go on doing these things themselves, but give approval to those who do them.
Rom2:2 And we are conscious that God is a true judge against those who do such things.
Rom2:7 To those who go on with good works in the hope of glory and honour and salvation from death, he will give eternal life:
Rom2:8 But to those who, from a love of competition, are not guided by what is true, will come the heat of his wrath,
Rom2:14 For when the Gentiles without the law have a natural desire to do the things in the law, they are a law to themselves;
Rom2:15 Because the work of the law is seen in their hearts, their sense of right and wrong giving witness to it, while their minds are at one time judging them and at another giving them approval;
Rom2:24 For the name of God is shamed among the Gentiles because of you, as it is said in the holy Writings.
Rom3:2 Much in every way: first of all because the words of God were given to them.
Rom3:3 And if some have no faith, will that make the faith of God without effect?
Rom3:5 But if the righteousness of God is supported by our wrongdoing what is to be said? is it wrong for God to be angry (as men may say)?
Rom3:8 Let us not do evil so that good may come (a statement which we are falsely said by some to have made), because such behaviour will have its right punishment.
Rom3:9 What then? are we worse off than they? In no way: because we have before made it clear that Jews as well as Greeks are all under the power of sin;
Rom3:13 Their throat is like an open place of death; with their tongues they have said what is not true: the poison of snakes is under their lips:
Rom3:15 Their feet are quick in running after blood;
Rom3:17 And of the way of peace they have no knowledge:
Rom3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes.
Rom3:19 Now, we have knowledge that what the law says is for those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and all men may be judged by God:
Rom3:28 For this reason, then, a man may get righteousness by faith without the works of the law.
Rom3:31 Do we, then, through faith make the law of no effect? in no way: but we make it clear that the law is important.
Rom4:1 What, then, may we say that Abraham, our father after the flesh, has got?
Rom4:9 Is this blessing, then, for the circumcision only, or in the same way for those who have not circumcision? for we say that the faith of Abraham was put to his account as righteousness.
Rom4:11 And he was given the sign of circumcision as a witness of the faith which he had before he underwent circumcision: so that he might be the father of all those who have faith, though they have not circumcision, and so that righteousness might be put to their account;
Rom4:12 And the father of circumcision to those who not only are of the circumcision, but who keep to the way of that faith which our father Abraham had before he underwent circumcision.
Rom4:17 (As it is said in the holy Writings, I have made you a father of a number of nations) before him in whom he had faith, that is, God, who gives life to the dead, and to whom the things which are not are as if they were.
Rom4:24 But for us in addition, to whose account it will be put, if we have faith in him who made Jesus our Lord come back again from the dead,
Rom4:25 Who was put to death for our evil-doing, and came to life again so that we might have righteousness.
Rom5:1 For which reason, because we have righteousness through faith, let us be at peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;
Rom5:2 Through whom, in the same way, we have been able by faith to come to this grace in which we now are; and let us have joy in hope of the glory of God.
Rom5:5 And hope does not put to shame; because our hearts are full of the love of God through the Holy Spirit which is given to us.
Rom5:6 For when we were still without strength, at the right time Christ gave his life for evil-doers.
Rom5:8 But God has made clear his love to us, in that, when we were still sinners, Christ gave his life for us.
Rom5:9 Much more, if we now have righteousness by his blood, will salvation from the wrath of God come to us through him.
Rom5:10 For if, when we were haters of God, the death of his Son made us at peace with him, much more, now that we are his friends, will we have salvation through his life;
Rom5:11 And not only so, but we have joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we are now at peace with God.
Rom5:21 That, as sin had power in death, so grace might have power through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Rom6:1 What may we say, then? are we to go on in sin so that there may be more grace?
Rom6:2 In no way. How may we, who are dead to sin, be living in it any longer?
Rom6:3 Or are you without the knowledge that all we who had baptism into Christ Jesus, had baptism into his death?
Rom6:4 We have been placed with him among the dead through baptism into death: so that as Christ came again from the dead by the glory of the Father, we, in the same way, might be living in new life.
Rom6:5 For, if we have been made like him in his death, we will, in the same way, be like him in his coming to life again;
Rom6:6 Being conscious that our old man was put to death on the cross with him, so that the body of sin might be put away, and we might no longer be servants to sin.
Rom6:8 But if we are dead with Christ, we have faith that we will be living with him;
Rom6:11 Even so see yourselves as dead to sin, but living to God in Christ Jesus.
Rom6:12 For this cause do not let sin be ruling in your body which is under the power of death, so that you give way to its desires;
Rom6:13 And do not give your bodies to sin as the instruments of wrongdoing, but give yourselves to God, as those who are living from the dead, and your bodies as instruments of righteousness to God.
Rom6:14 For sin may not have rule over you: because you are not under law, but under grace.
Rom6:15 What then? are we to go on in sin because we are not under law but under grace? Let it not be so.
Rom6:16 Are you not conscious that you are the servants of him to whom you give yourselves to do his desire? if to sin, the end being death, or if to do the desire of God, the end being righteousness.
Rom6:17 But praise be to God that though you were the servants of sin, you have now given yourselves freely to that form of teaching under which you were placed;
Rom6:18 And being made free from sin you have been made the servants of righteousness.
Rom6:19 I am using words in the way of men, because your flesh is feeble: as you gave your bodies as servants to what is unclean, and to evil to do evil, so now give them as servants to righteousness to do what is holy.
Rom6:20 When you were servants of sin you were free from righteousness.
Rom6:21 What fruit had you at that time in the things which are now a shame to you? for the end of such things is death.
Rom6:22 But now, being free from sin, and having been made servants to God, you have your fruit in that which is holy, and the end is eternal life.
Rom6:23 For the reward of sin is death; but what God freely gives is eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord.
Rom7:1 Is it not clear, my brothers (I am using an argument to those who have knowledge of the law), that the law has power over a man as long as he is living?
Rom7:4 In the same way, my brothers, you were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, so that you might be joined to another, even to him who came again from the dead, so that we might give fruit to God.
Rom7:5 For when we were in the flesh, the evil passions which came into being through the law were working in our bodies to give the fruit of death.
Rom7:6 But now we are free from the law, having been made dead to that which had power over us; so that we are servants in the new way of the spirit, not in the old way of the letter.
Rom7:7 What then is to be said? is the law sin? in no way. But I would not have had knowledge of sin but for the law: for I would not have been conscious of desire if the law had not said, You may not have a desire for what is another's.
Rom7:14 For we are conscious that the law is of the spirit; but I am of the flesh, given into the power of sin.
Rom7:25 I give praise to God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So with my mind I am a servant to the law of God, but with my flesh to the law of sin.
Rom8:4 So that what was ordered by the law might be done in us, who are living, not in the way of the flesh, but in the way of the Spirit.
Rom8:9 You are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if the Spirit of God is in you. But if any man has not the Spirit of Christ he is not one of his.
Rom8:10 And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
Rom8:11 But if the Spirit of him who made Jesus come again from the dead is in you, he who made Christ Jesus come again from the dead will in the same way, through his Spirit which is in you, give life to your bodies which now are under the power of death.
Rom8:12 So then, my brothers, we are in debt, not to the flesh to be living in the way of the flesh:
Rom8:13 For if you go in the way of the flesh, death will come on you; but if by the Spirit you put to death the works of the body, you will have life.
Rom8:15 For you did not get the spirit of servants again to put you in fear, but the spirit of sons was given to you, by which we say, Abba, Father.
Rom8:16 The Spirit is witness with our spirit that we are children of God:
Rom8:17 And if we are children, we have a right to a part in the heritage; a part in the things of God, together with Christ; so that if we have a part in his pain, we will in the same way have a part in his glory.
Rom8:18 I am of the opinion that there is no comparison between the pain of this present time and the glory which we will see in the future.
Rom8:22 For we are conscious that all living things are weeping and sorrowing in pain together till now.
Rom8:23 And not only so, but we who have the first fruits of the Spirit, even we have sorrow in our minds, waiting for the time when we will take our place as sons, that is, the salvation of our bodies.
Rom8:24 For our salvation is by hope: but hope which is seen is not hope: for who is hoping for what he sees?
Rom8:25 But if we have hope for that which we see not, then we will be able to go on waiting for it.
Rom8:26 And in the same way the Spirit is a help to our feeble hearts: for we are not able to make prayer to God in the right way; but the Spirit puts our desires into words which are not in our power to say;
Rom8:28 And we are conscious that all things are working together for good to those who have love for God, and have been marked out by his purpose.
Rom8:30 And those who were marked out by him were named; and those who were named were given righteousness; and to those to whom he gave righteousness, in the same way he gave glory.
Rom8:31 What may we say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us?
Rom8:32 He who did not keep back his only Son, but gave him up for us all, will he not with him freely give us all things?
Rom8:33 Who will say anything against the saints of God? It is God who makes us clear from evil;
Rom8:34 Who will give a decision against us? It is Christ Jesus who not only was put to death, but came again from the dead, who is now at the right hand of God, taking our part.
Rom8:35 Who will come between us and the love of Christ? Will trouble, or pain, or cruel acts, or the need of food or of clothing, or danger, or the sword?
Rom8:36 As it is said in the holy Writings, Because of you we are put to death every day; we are like sheep ready for destruction.
Rom8:37 But we are able to overcome all these things and more through his love.
Rom8:39 Or things on high, or things under the earth, or anything which is made, will be able to come between us and the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Rom9:4 Who are Israelites: who have the place of sons, and the glory, and the agreements with God, and the giving of the law, and the worship, and the hope offered by God:
Rom9:5 Whose are the fathers, and of whom came Christ in the flesh, who is over all, God, to whom be blessing for ever. So be it.
Rom9:10 And not only so, but Rebecca being about to have a child by our father Isaac--
Rom9:14 What may we say then? is God not upright? let it not be said.
Rom9:24 Even us, who were marked out by him, not only from the Jews, but from the Gentiles?
Rom9:26 And in the place where it was said to them, You are not my people, there they will be named the sons of the living God.
Rom9:29 And, as Isaiah had said before, If the Lord of armies had not given us a seed, we would have been like Sodom and Gomorrah.
Rom9:30 What then may we say? That the nations who did not go after righteousness have got righteousness, even the righteousness which is of faith:
Rom9:32 Why? Because they were not searching for it by faith, but by works. They came up against the stone which was in the way;
Rom10:1 Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God for them is, that they may get salvation.
Rom10:2 For I give witness of them that they have a strong desire for God, but not with knowledge.
Rom10:8 But what does it say? The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart: that is, the word of faith of which we are the preachers:
Rom10:15 And how will there be preachers if they are not sent? As it is said, How beautiful are the feet of those who give the glad news of good things.
Rom10:16 But they have not all given ear to the good news. For Isaiah says, Lord, who has had faith in our word?
Rom10:18 But I say, Did not the word come to their ears? Yes, certainly: Their sound has gone out into all the earth, and their words to the ends of the world.
Rom10:19 But I say, Had Israel no knowledge? First Moses says, You will be moved to envy by that which is not a nation, and by a foolish people I will make you angry.
Rom10:20 And Isaiah says without fear, Those who were not searching for me made discovery of me; and I was seen by those whose hearts were turned away from me.
Rom11:2 God has not put away the people of his selection. Or have you no knowledge of what is said about Elijah in the holy Writings? how he says words to God against Israel,
Rom11:3 Lord, they have put your prophets to death, and made waste your altars, and now I am the last, and they are searching for me to take away my life.
Rom11:7 What then? That which Israel was searching for he did not get, but those of the selection got it and the rest were made hard.
Rom11:8 As it was said in the holy Writings, God gave them a spirit of sleep, eyes which might not see, and ears which have no hearing, to this day.
Rom11:9 And David says, Let their table be made a net for taking them, and a stone in their way, and a punishment:
Rom11:10 Let their eyes be made dark so that they may not see, and let their back be bent down at all times.
Rom11:11 So I say, Were their steps made hard in order that they might have a fall? In no way: but by their fall salvation has come to the Gentiles, so that they might be moved to envy.
Rom11:12 Now, if their fall is the wealth of the world, and their loss the wealth of the Gentiles, how much greater will be the glory when they are made full?
Rom11:13 But I say to you, Gentiles, in so far as I am the Apostle of the Gentiles, I make much of my position:
Rom11:14 If in any way those who are of my flesh may be moved to envy, so that some of them may get salvation by me.
Rom11:15 For, if by their putting away, the rest of men have been made friends with God, what will their coming back again be, but life from the dead?
Rom11:20 Truly, because they had no faith they were broken off, and you have your place by reason of your faith. Do not be lifted up in pride, but have fear;
Rom11:23 And they, if they do not go on without faith, will be united to the tree again, because God is able to put them in again.
Rom11:25 For it is my desire, brothers, that this secret may be clear to you, so that you may not have pride in your knowledge, that Israel has been made hard in part, till all the Gentiles have come in;
Rom11:27 And this is my agreement with them, when I will take away their sins.
Rom11:28 As far as the good news is in question, they are cut off from God on account of you, but as far as the selection is in question, they are loved on account of the fathers.
Rom11:30 For as you, in time past, were not under the rule of God, but now have got mercy through their turning away,
Rom11:31 So in the same way these have gone against the orders of God, so that by the mercy given to you they may now get mercy.
Rom11:36 For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things. To him be the glory for ever. So be it.
Rom12:1 For this reason I make request to you, brothers, by the mercies of God, that you will give your bodies as a living offering, holy, pleasing to God, which is the worship it is right for you to give him.
Rom12:2 And let not your behaviour be like that of this world, but be changed and made new in mind, so that by experience you may have knowledge of the good and pleasing and complete purpose of God.
Rom12:3 But I say to every one of you, through the grace given to me, not to have an over-high opinion of himself, but to have wise thoughts, as God has given to every one a measure of faith.
Rom12:4 For, as we have a number of parts in one body, but all the parts have not the same use,
Rom12:5 So we, though we are a number of persons, are one body in Christ, and are dependent on one another;
Rom12:6 And having different qualities by reason of the grace given to us, such as the quality of a prophet, let it be made use of in relation to the measure of our faith;
Rom12:14 Give blessing and not curses to those who are cruel to you.
Rom13:5 So put yourselves under the authority, not for fear of wrath, but because you have the knowledge of what is right.
Rom13:6 For the same reason, make payment of taxes; because the authority is God's servant, to take care of such things at all times.
Rom13:11 See then that the time has come for you to be awake from sleep: for now is your salvation nearer than when you first had faith.
Rom13:12 The night is far gone, and the day is near: so let us put off the works of the dark, arming ourselves with light,
Rom14:1 Do not put on one side him who is feeble in faith, and do not put him in doubt by your reasonings.
Rom14:7 For every man's life and every man's death has a relation to others as well as to himself.
Rom14:8 As long as we have life we are living to the Lord; or if we give up our life it is to the Lord; so if we are living, or if our life comes to an end, we are the Lord's.
Rom14:10 But you, why do you make yourself your brother's judge? or again, why have you no respect for your brother? because we will all have to take our place before God as our judge.
Rom14:12 So every one of us will have to give an account of himself to God.
Rom14:13 Then let us not be judges of one another any longer: but keep this in mind, that no man is to make it hard for his brother, or give him cause for doubting.
Rom14:19 So then, let us go after the things which make peace, and the things by which we may be a help to one another.
Rom15:1 We who are strong have to be a support to the feeble, and not give pleasure to ourselves.
Rom15:2 Let every one of us give pleasure to his neighbour for his good, to make him strong.
Rom15:4 Now those things which were put down in writing before our time were for our learning, so that through quiet waiting and through the comfort of the holy Writings we might have hope.
Rom15:5 Now may the God who gives comfort and strength in waiting make you of the same mind with one another in harmony with Christ Jesus:
Rom15:6 So that with one mouth you may give glory to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Rom15:7 So then, take one another to your hearts, as Christ took us, to the glory of God.
Rom15:10 And again he says, Take part, you Gentiles, in the joy of his people.
Rom15:11 And again, Give praise to the Lord, all you Gentiles; and let all the nations give praise to him.
Rom15:13 Now may the God of hope make you full of joy and peace through faith, so that all hope may be yours in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Rom15:14 And I myself am certain of you, brothers, that you are full of what is good, complete in all knowledge, able to give direction to one another.
Rom15:15 But I have, in some measure, less fear in writing to you to put these things before you again, because of the grace which was given to me by God,
Rom15:22 For which reason I was frequently kept from coming to you:
Rom15:23 But now, having no longer any place in these parts and having had for a number of years a great desire to come to you,
Rom15:24 Whenever I go to Spain (for it is my hope to see you on my way, and to be sent on there by you, if first I may in some measure have been comforted by your company)--
Rom15:27 Yes, it has been their good pleasure; and they are in their debt. For if the Gentiles have had a part in the things of the Spirit which were theirs, it is right for them, in the same way, to give them help in the things of the flesh.
Rom15:28 So when I have done this, and have given them this fruit of love, I will go on by you into Spain.
Rom15:30 Now I make request to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you will be working together with me in your prayers to God for me;
Rom15:32 So that I may come to you in joy by the good pleasure of God, and have rest with you.
Rom15:33 Now may the God of peace be with you all. So be it.
Rom16:1 It is my desire to say a good word for Phoebe, who is a servant of the church in Cenchreae:
Rom16:2 That you will take her in kindly, after the way of the saints, as one who is the Lord's, and give her help in anything in which she may have need of you: because she has been a help to a great number and to myself.
Rom16:3 Give my love to Prisca and Aquila, workers with me in Christ Jesus,
Rom16:4 Who for my life put their necks in danger; to whom not only I but all the churches of the Gentiles are in debt:
Rom16:5 And say a kind word to the church which is in their house. Give my love to my dear Epaenetus, who is the first fruit of Asia to Christ.
Rom16:6 Give my love to Mary, who gave much care to you.
Rom16:7 Give my love to Andronicus and Junia, my relations, who were in prison with me, who are noted among the Apostles, and who were in Christ before me.
Rom16:9 Give my love to Urbanus, a worker in Christ with us, and to my dear Stachys.
Rom16:14 Give my love to Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them.
Rom16:15 Give my love to Philologus and Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them.
Rom16:16 Give one another a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ send their love to you.
Rom16:17 Now, it is my desire, brothers, that you will take note of those who are causing division and trouble among you, quite against the teaching which was given to you: and keep away from them.
Rom16:18 For such people are not servants of the Lord Christ, but of their stomachs; and by their smooth and well-said words the hearts of those who have no knowledge of evil are tricked.
Rom16:19 For all have knowledge of how you do what you are ordered. For this reason I have joy in you, but it is my desire that you may be wise in what is good, and without knowledge of evil.
Rom16:20 And the God of peace will be crushing Satan under your feet before long. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
Rom16:21 Timothy, who is working with me, sends his love to you, so do Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my relations.
Rom16:22 I, Tertius, who have done the writing of this letter, send love in the Lord.
Rom16:23 Gaius, with whom I am living, whose house is open to all the church, sends his love, so does Erastus, the manager of the accounts of the town, and Quartus, the brother.
Rom16:24 []
Rom16:25 Now to him who is able to make you strong in agreement with the good news which I gave you and the preaching of Jesus Christ, in the light of the revelation of that secret which has been kept through times eternal,
Rom16:26 But is now made clear; and by the writings of the prophets, by the order of the eternal God, the knowledge of it has been given to all the nations, so that they may come under the rule of the faith;
Rom16:27 To the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, be the glory for ever. So be it.
1Co1:2 To the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been made holy in Christ Jesus, saints by the selection of God, with all those who in every place give honour to the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:
1Co1:3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
1Co1:4 I give praise to my God for you at all times, because of the grace of God which has been given to you in Christ Jesus;
1Co1:5 So that in him you have wealth in all things, in word and in knowledge of every sort;
1Co1:6 Even as the witness of the Christ has been made certain among you:
1Co1:7 So that having every grace you are living in the hope of the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ;
1Co1:8 Who will give you strength to the end, to be free from all sin in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1Co1:9 God is true, through whom you have been given a part with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
1Co1:10 Now I make request to you, my brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you will all say the same thing, and that there may be no divisions among you, so that you may be in complete agreement, in the same mind and in the same opinion.
1Co1:11 Because it has come to my knowledge, through those of the house of Chloe, that there are divisions among you, my brothers.
1Co1:12 That is, that some of you say, I am of Paul; some say, I am of Apollos; some say, I am of Cephas; and some say, I am Christ's.
1Co1:13 Is there a division in Christ? was Paul nailed to the cross for you? or were you given baptism in the name of Paul?
1Co1:14 I give praise to God that not one of you had baptism from me, but Crispus and Gaius;
1Co1:15 So that no one may be able to say that you had baptism in my name.
1Co1:18 For the word of the cross seems foolish to those who are on the way to destruction; but to us who are on the way to salvation it is the power of God.
1Co1:23 But we give the good news of Christ on the cross, a hard thing to the Jews, and a foolish thing to the Gentiles;
1Co1:26 For you see God's design for you, my brothers, that he has not taken a great number of the wise after the flesh, not the strong, not the noble:
1Co1:30 But God has given you a place in Christ Jesus, through whom God has given us wisdom and righteousness and salvation, and made us holy:
1Co2:1 And when I came to you, my brothers, I did not come with wise words of knowledge, putting before you the secret of God.
1Co2:2 For I had made the decision to have knowledge of nothing among you but only of Jesus Christ on the cross.
1Co2:3 And I was with you without strength, in fear and in doubt.
1Co2:5 So that your faith might be based not on man's wisdom but on the power of God.
1Co2:6 But still we have wisdom for those who are complete in knowledge, though not the wisdom of this world, and not of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing:
1Co2:7 But we give the news of the secret wisdom of God, which he had kept in store before the world came into existence, for our glory;
1Co2:8 Of which not one of the rulers of this world had knowledge: for if they had, they would not have put the Lord of glory on the cross:
1Co2:10 But God has given us the revelation of these things through his Spirit, for the Spirit makes search into all things, even the deep things of God.
1Co2:12 But we have not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which comes from God, so that we may have knowledge of the things which are freely given to us by God.
1Co2:13 And these are the things which we say, not in the language of man's wisdom, but in words given to us by the Spirit, judging the things of the spirit by the help of the Spirit.
1Co2:16 For who has knowledge of the mind of the Lord, so as to be his teacher? But we have the mind of Christ.
1Co3:1 And the teaching I gave you, my brothers, was such as I was able to give, not to those who have the Spirit, but to those who are still in the flesh, even to children in Christ.
1Co3:2 I gave you milk and not meat, because you were, then, unable to take it, and even now you are not able;
1Co3:3 Because you are still in the flesh: for when there is envy and division among you, are you not still walking after the way of the flesh, even as natural men?
1Co3:4 For when one says, I am of Paul; and another says, I am of Apollos; are you not talking like natural men?
1Co3:5 What then is Apollos? and what is Paul? They are but servants who gave you the good news as God gave it to them.
1Co3:9 For we are workers with God: you are God's planting, God's building.
1Co3:16 Do you not see that you are God's holy house, and that the Spirit of God has his place in you?
1Co3:17 If anyone makes the house of God unclean, God will put an end to him; for the house of God is holy, and you are his house.
1Co3:18 Let no man have a false idea. If any man seems to himself to be wise among you, let him become foolish, so that he may be wise.
1Co3:21 So let no one take pride in men. For all things are yours;
1Co3:22 Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;
1Co3:23 And you are Christ's; and Christ is God's.
1Co4:1 Let us be judged as servants of Christ, and as those who are responsible for the secret things of God.
1Co4:3 But it is a small thing to me that I am judged by you or by man's judging; I am not even a judge of myself.
1Co4:6 My brothers, it is because of you that I have taken Apollos and myself as examples of these things, so that in us you might see that it is not wise to go farther than what is in the holy Writings, so that no one of you may be lifted up against his brother.
1Co4:8 For even now you are full, even now you have wealth, you have been made kings without us: truly, I would be glad if you were kings, so that we might be kings with you.
1Co4:9 For it seems to me that God has put us the Apostles last of all, as men whose fate is death: for we are put on view to the world, and to angels, and to men.
1Co4:10 We are made to seem foolish for Christ, but you are wise in Christ; we are feeble, but you are strong; you have glory, but we have shame.
1Co4:11 Even to this hour we are without food, drink, and clothing, we are given blows and have no certain resting-place;
1Co4:12 And with our hands we do the hardest work: when they give us curses we give blessings, when we undergo punishment we take it quietly;
1Co4:13 When evil things are said about us we give gentle answers: we are made as the unclean things of the world, as that for which no one has any use, even till now.
1Co4:14 I am not saying these things to put you to shame, but so that, as my dear children, you may see what is right.
1Co4:15 For even if you had ten thousand teachers in Christ, you have not more than one father: for in Christ Jesus I have given birth to you through the good news.
1Co4:16 So my desire is that you take me as your example.
1Co4:17 For this cause I have sent Timothy to you, who is my dear and true child in the Lord; he will make clear to you my ways in Christ, even as I am teaching everywhere in every church.
1Co4:18 Now some are full of pride, as if I was not coming to you.
1Co4:19 But I will come to you in a short time, if it is pleasing to the Lord, and I will take note, not of the word of those who are full of pride, but of the power.
1Co4:21 What is your desire? is my coming to be with punishment, or is it to be in love and a gentle spirit?
1Co5:1 It is said, in fact, that there is among you a sin of the flesh, such as is not seen even among the Gentiles, that one of you has his father's wife.
1Co5:2 And in place of feeling sorrow, you are pleased with yourselves, so that he who has done this thing has not been sent away from among you.
1Co5:3 For I myself, being present in spirit though not in body, have come to a decision about him who has done this thing;
1Co5:4 In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you have come together with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus,
1Co5:6 This pride of yours is not good. Do you not see that a little leaven makes a change in all the mass?
1Co5:7 Take away, then, the old leaven, so that you may be a new mass, even as you are without leaven. For Christ has been put to death as our Passover.
1Co5:8 Let us then keep the feast, not with old leaven, and not with the leaven of evil thoughts and acts, but with the unleavened bread of true thoughts and right feelings.
1Co5:9 In my letter I said to you that you were not to keep company with those who go after the desires of the flesh;
1Co5:10 But I had not in mind the sinners who are outside the church, or those who have a desire for and take the property of others, or those who give worship to images; for it is not possible to keep away from such people without going out of the world completely:
1Co5:11 But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.
1Co5:12 For it is no business of mine to be judging those who are outside; but it is yours to be judging those who are among you;
1Co5:13 As for those who are outside, God is their judge. So put away the evil man from among you.
1Co6:1 How is it, that if any one of you has a cause at law against another, he takes it before a Gentile judge and not before the saints?
1Co6:2 Is it not certain that the saints will be the judges of the world? if then the world will be judged by you, are you unable to give a decision about the smallest things?
1Co6:3 Is it not certain that we are to be the judges of angels? how much more then of the things of this life?
1Co6:4 If then there are questions to be judged in connection with the things of this life, why do you put them in the hands of those who have no position in the church?
1Co6:5 I say this to put you to shame. Is there not among you one wise man who may be able to give a decision between his brothers?
1Co6:6 But a brother who has a cause at law against another takes it before Gentile judges.
1Co6:7 More than this, it is not to your credit to have causes at law with one another at all. Why not put up with wrong? why not undergo loss?
1Co6:8 So far from doing this, you yourselves do wrong and take your brothers' property.
1Co6:9 Have you not knowledge that evil-doers will have no part in the kingdom of God? Have no false ideas about this: no one who goes after the desires of the flesh, or gives worship to images, or is untrue when married, or is less than a man, or makes a wrong use of men,
1Co6:11 And such were some of you; but you have been washed, you have been made holy, you have been given righteousness in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.
1Co6:14 And God who made the Lord Jesus come back from the dead will do the same for us by his power.
1Co6:15 Do you not see that your bodies are part of the body of Christ? how then may I take what is a part of the body of Christ and make it a part of the body of a loose woman? such a thing may not be.
1Co6:18 Keep away from the desires of the flesh. Every sin which a man does is outside of the body; but he who goes after the desires of the flesh does evil to his body.
1Co6:19 Or are you not conscious that your body is a house for the Holy Spirit which is in you, and which has been given to you by God? and you are not the owners of yourselves;
1Co6:20 For a payment has been made for you: let God be honoured in your body.
1Co7:1 Now, as to the things in your letter to me: It is good for a man to have nothing to do with a woman.
1Co7:5 Do not keep back from one another what is right, but only for a short time, and by agreement, so that you may give yourselves to prayer, and come together again; so that Satan may not get the better of you through your loss of self-control.
1Co7:6 But this I say as my opinion, and not as an order of the Lord.
1Co7:8 But I say to the unmarried and to the widows, It is good for them to be even as I am.
1Co7:10 But to the married I give orders, though not I but the Lord, that the wife may not go away from her husband
1Co7:14 For the husband who has not faith is made holy through his Christian wife, and the wife who is not a Christian is made holy through the brother: if not, your children would be unholy, but now are they holy.
1Co7:15 But if the one who is not a Christian has a desire to go away, let it be so: the brother or the sister in such a position is not forced to do one thing or the other: but it is God's pleasure that we may be at peace with one another.
1Co7:23 It is the Lord who has made payment for you: be not servants of men.
1Co7:24 My brothers, let every man keep in that condition which is the purpose of God for him.
1Co7:25 Now about virgins I have no orders from the Lord: but I give my opinion as one to whom the Lord has given mercy to be true to him.
1Co7:28 If you get married it is not a sin; and if an unmarried woman gets married it is not a sin. But those who do so will have trouble in the flesh. But I will not be hard on you.
1Co7:29 But I say this, my brothers, the time is short; and from now it will be wise for those who have wives to be as if they had them not;
1Co7:32 But it is my desire for you to be free from cares. The unmarried man gives his mind to the things of the Lord, how he may give pleasure to the Lord:
1Co7:35 Now I say this for your profit; not to make things hard for you, but because of what is right, and so that you may be able to give all your attention to the things of the Lord.
1Co8:1 Now about things offered to images: we all seem to ourselves to have knowledge. Knowledge gives pride, but love gives true strength.
1Co8:4 So, then, as to the question of taking food offered to images, we are certain that an image is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.
1Co8:6 There is for us only one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we are for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we have our being through him.
1Co8:7 Still, all men have not that knowledge: but some, being used till now to the image, are conscious that they are taking food which has been offered to the image; and because they are not strong in the faith, their minds are troubled.
1Co8:8 But God's approval of us is not based on the food we take: if we do not take it we are no worse for it; and if we take it we are no better.
1Co8:9 But take care that this power of yours does not give cause for trouble to the feeble.
1Co8:12 And in this way, doing evil to the brothers, and causing trouble to those whose faith is feeble, you are sinning against Christ.
1Co9:1 Am I not free? am I not an Apostle? have I not seen Jesus our Lord? are you not my work in the Lord?
1Co9:2 If to others I am not an Apostle, at least I am one to you: for the fact that you are Christians is the sign that I am an Apostle.
1Co9:4 Have we no right to take food and drink?
1Co9:5 Have we no right to take about with us a Christian wife, like the rest of the Apostles, and the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas?
1Co9:10 Or has he us in mind? Yes, it was said for us; because it is right for the ploughman to do his ploughing in hope, and for him who is crushing the grain to do his work hoping for a part in the fruits of it.
1Co9:11 If we have been planting the things of the Spirit for you, does it seem a great thing for you to give us a part in your things of this world?
1Co9:12 If others have a part in this right over you, have we not even more? But we did not make use of our right, so that we might put nothing in the way of the good news of Christ.
1Co9:13 Do you not see that the servants of the holy things get their living from the Temple, and the servants of the altar have their part in the food which is offered on the altar?
1Co9:15 But I have not made use of any of these things: and I am not writing this in the hope that it may be so for me: for it would be better for me to undergo death, than for any man to make this pride of mine of no effect.
1Co9:24 Do you not see that in a running competition all take part, but only one gets the reward? So let your minds be fixed on the reward.
1Co9:25 And every man who takes part in the sports has self-control in all things. Now they do it to get a crown which is of this world, but we for an eternal crown.
1Co10:1 For it is my desire, my brothers, that you may keep in mind how all our fathers were under the cloud, and they all went through the sea;
1Co10:4 And the same holy drink: for they all took of the water from the holy rock which came after them: and the rock was Christ.
1Co10:5 But with most of them God was not pleased: for they came to their end in the waste land.
1Co10:6 Now these things were for an example to us, so that our hearts might not go after evil things, as they did.
1Co10:7 Then do not go after false gods, as some of them did; as it is said in the holy Writings, After resting and feasting, the people got up to take their pleasure.
1Co10:8 Again, let us not give way to the desires of the flesh, as some of them did, of whom twenty-three thousand came to their end in one day.
1Co10:9 And let us not put the Lord to the test, as some of them did, and came to their death by snakes.
1Co10:10 And do not say evil things against the Lord, as some of them did, and destruction overtook them.
1Co10:11 Now these things were done as an example; and were put down in writing for our teaching, on whom the last days have come.
1Co10:13 You have been put to no test but such as is common to man: and God is true, who will not let any test come on you which you are not able to undergo; but he will make with the test a way out of it, so that you may be able to go through it.
1Co10:14 For this cause, my dear brothers, give no worship to false gods.
1Co10:15 What I am saying is for wise men, do you be the judges of it.
1Co10:16 The cup of blessing which we take, does it not give us a part in the blood of Christ? and is not the broken bread a taking part in the body of Christ?
1Co10:17 Because we, being a number of persons, are one bread, we are one body: for we all take part in the one bread.
1Co10:18 See Israel after the flesh: do not those who take as food the offerings of the altar take a part in the altar?
1Co10:20 What I say is that the things offered by the Gentiles are offered to evil spirits and not to God; and it is not my desire for you to have any part with evil spirits.
1Co10:21 It is not possible for you, at the same time, to take the cup of the Lord and the cup of evil spirits; you may not take part in the table of the Lord and the table of evil spirits.
1Co10:22 Or may we be the cause of envy to the Lord? are we stronger than he?
1Co10:25 Whatever meat may be had at the public market, take as food without question of right or wrong;
1Co10:27 If a Gentile makes a feast for you, and you are pleased to go as a guest, take whatever is put before you, without question of right or wrong.
1Co10:28 But if anyone says to you, This food has been used as an offering, do not take it, on account of him who said it, and on account of his sense of right and wrong:
1Co10:31 So then, if it is a question of food or drink, or any other thing, whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
1Co10:32 Give no cause of trouble to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the church of God.
1Co10:33 Even as I give way to all men in all things, not looking for profit for myself, but for the good of others, that they may get salvation.
1Co11:1 So take me for your example, even as I take Christ for mine.
1Co11:2 Now I am pleased to see that you keep me in memory in all things, and that you give attention to the teaching which was handed down from me to you.
1Co11:3 But it is important for you to keep this fact in mind, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.
1Co11:13 Be judges yourselves of the question: does it seem right for a woman to take part in prayer unveiled?
1Co11:14 Does it not seem natural to you that if a man has long hair, it is a cause of shame to him?
1Co11:16 But if any man will not be ruled in this question, this is not our way of doing things, and it is not done in the churches of God.
1Co11:17 But in giving you this order, there is one thing about which I am not pleased: it is that when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse.
1Co11:18 For first of all, it has come to my ears that when you come together in the church, there are divisions among you, and I take the statement to be true in part.
1Co11:19 For divisions are necessary among you, in order that those who have God's approval may be clearly seen among you.
1Co11:20 But now, when you come together, it is not possible to take the holy meal of the Lord:
1Co11:22 What? have you not houses to take your meals in? or have you no respect for the church of God, putting the poor to shame? What am I to say to you? am I to give you praise? certainly not.
1Co11:23 For it was handed down to me from the Lord, as I gave it to you, that the Lord Jesus, on the night when Judas was false to him, took bread,
1Co11:24 And when it had been broken with an act of praise, he said, This is my body which is for you: do this in memory of me.
1Co11:25 In the same way, with the cup, after the meal, he said, This cup is the new testament in my blood: do this, whenever you take it, in memory of me.
1Co11:26 For whenever you take the bread and the cup you give witness to the Lord's death till he comes.
1Co11:30 For this cause a number of you are feeble and ill, and a number are dead.
1Co11:31 But if we were true judges of ourselves, punishment would not come on us.
1Co11:32 But if punishment does come, it is sent by the Lord, so that we may be safe when the world is judged.
1Co11:33 So then, my brothers, when you come together to the holy meal of the Lord, let there be waiting for one another.
1Co11:34 If any man is in need of food, let him take his meal in his house; so that you may not come together to your damage. And the rest I will put in order when I come.
1Co12:1 But about the things of the spirit, my brothers, it is not right for you to be without teaching.
1Co12:2 You are conscious that when you were Gentiles, in whatever way you were guided, you went after images without voice or power.
1Co12:3 So it is my desire for you to be clear about this; that no one is able to say by the Spirit of God that Jesus is cursed; and no one is able to say that Jesus is Lord, but by the Holy Spirit.
1Co12:13 For through the baptism of the one Spirit we were all formed into one body, Jews or Greeks, servants or free men, and were all made full of the same Spirit.
1Co12:23 And to those parts of the body which seem to have less honour we give all the more honour; and to those parts of the body which are a cause of shame to us we give the greater respect;
1Co12:24 But those parts of the body which are beautiful have no need of such care: and so the body has been joined together by God in such a way as to give more honour to those parts which had need of it;
1Co12:27 Now you are the body of Christ, and every one of you the separate parts of it.
1Co12:31 But let your desires be turned to the more important things given by the Spirit. And now I am pointing out to you an even better way.
1Co13:9 For our knowledge is only in part, and the prophet's word gives only a part of what is true:
1Co13:12 For now we see things in a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now my knowledge is in part; then it will be complete, even as God's knowledge of me.
1Co14:1 Go after love; still desiring to have the things which the Spirit gives, but most of all that you may have the prophet's power.
1Co14:5 Now though it is my desire for you all to have the power of tongues, it would give me more pleasure to be hearing the prophet's word from you; for this is a greater thing than using tongues, if the sense is not given at the same time, for the good of the church.
1Co14:6 But, now, my brothers, if I come to you using tongues, what profit will it be to you, if I do not give you a revelation, or knowledge, or the word of the prophet, or teaching?
1Co14:9 So if you, in using a strange tongue, say words which have no sense, how will anyone take in what you are saying? for you will be talking to the air.
1Co14:12 So if you are desiring the things which the Spirit gives, let your minds be turned first to the things which are for the good of the church.
1Co14:16 For if you give a blessing with the spirit, how will the man who has no knowledge say, So be it, after your prayer, seeing that he has not taken in what you are saying?
1Co14:18 I give praise to God that I am able to make use of tongues more than you all:
1Co14:20 My brothers, do not be children in mind: in evil be as little children, but in mind be of full growth.
1Co14:21 In the law it is said, By men of other tongues and by strange lips will my words come to this people; and not even so will they give ear to me, says the Lord.
1Co14:23 If, then, the church has come together, and all are using tongues, and there come in men without knowledge or faith, will they not say that you are unbalanced?
1Co14:25 The secrets of his heart are made clear; and he will go down on his face and give worship to God, saying that God is truly among you.
1Co14:26 What is it then, my brothers? when you come together everyone has a holy song, or a revelation, or a tongue, or is giving the sense of it. Let everything be done for the common good.
1Co14:31 For you may all be prophets in turn so that all may get knowledge and comfort;
1Co14:34 Let women keep quiet in the churches: for it is not right for them to be talking; but let them be under control, as it says in the law.
1Co14:35 And if they have a desire for knowledge about anything, let them put questions to their husbands privately: for talking in the church puts shame on a woman.
1Co14:36 What? was it from you that the word of God went out? or did it only come in to you?
1Co14:37 If any man seems to himself to be a prophet or to have the Spirit, let him take note of the things which I am writing to you, as being the word of the Lord.
1Co14:39 So then, my brothers, let it be your chief desire to be prophets; but let no one be stopped from using tongues.
1Co15:1 Now I am going to make clear to you, my brothers, what the good news was which I gave to you, and which you took, and on which your faith is based,
1Co15:2 By which you have salvation; that is to say, the form in which it was given to you, if it is fixed in your minds, and if your faith in it is not without effect.
1Co15:3 For I gave to you first of all what was handed down to me, how Christ underwent death for our sins, as it says in the Writings;
1Co15:11 If then it is I who am the preacher, or they, this is our word, and to this you have given your faith.
1Co15:12 Now if the good news says that Christ came back from the dead, how do some of you say that there is no coming back from the dead?
1Co15:14 And if Christ did not come again from the dead, then our good news and your faith in it are of no effect.
1Co15:15 Yes, and we are seen to be false witnesses of God; because we gave witness of God that by his power Christ came again from the dead: which is not true if there is no coming back from the dead.
1Co15:17 And if that is so, your faith is of no effect; you are still in your sins.
1Co15:19 If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most unhappy.
1Co15:29 Again, what will they do who are given baptism for the dead? if the dead do not come back at all, why are people given baptism for them?
1Co15:30 And why are we in danger every hour?
1Co15:31 Yes, truly, by your pride in me, my brothers in Christ Jesus our Lord, my life is one long death.
1Co15:32 If, after the way of men, I was fighting with beasts at Ephesus, what profit is it to me? If the dead do not come to life again, let us take our pleasure in feasting, for tomorrow we come to an end.
1Co15:33 Do not be tricked by false words: evil company does damage to good behaviour.
1Co15:34 Be awake to righteousness and keep yourselves from sin; for some have no knowledge of God: I say this to put you to shame.
1Co15:49 And in the same way as we have taken on us the image of the man from the earth, so we will take on us the image of the one from heaven.
1Co15:50 Now I say this, my brothers, that it is not possible for flesh and blood to have a part in the kingdom of God; and death may not have a part in life.
1Co15:51 See, I am giving you the revelation of a secret: we will not all come to the sleep of death, but we will all be changed.
1Co15:52 In a second, in the shutting of an eye, at the sound of the last horn: for at that sound the dead will come again, free for ever from the power of death, and we will be changed.
1Co15:57 But praise be to God who gives us strength to overcome through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1Co15:58 For this cause, my dear brothers, be strong in purpose and unmoved, ever giving yourselves to the work of the Lord, because you are certain that your work is not without effect in the Lord.
1Co16:1 Now about the giving of money for the saints, as I gave orders to the churches of Galatia, so do you.
1Co16:3 And when I come, I will send the men of your selection with letters to take the money you have got together to Jerusalem.
1Co16:4 And if it is possible for me to go there, they will go with me.
1Co16:5 But I will come to you after I have gone through Macedonia, for that is my purpose;
1Co16:6 But I may be with you for a time, or even for the winter, so that you may see me on my way, wherever I go.
1Co16:7 For it is not my desire to see you now, on my way; because it is my hope to be with you for some time, if that is the Lord's pleasure.
1Co16:10 Now if Timothy comes, see that he is with you without fear; because he is doing the Lord's work, even as I am:
1Co16:11 See then that he has the honour which is right. But send him on his way in peace, so that he may come to me: for I am looking for him with the brothers.
1Co16:12 But as for Apollos, the brother, I had a great desire for him to come to you with the brothers, but it was not his pleasure to come now; but he will come when he has a chance.
1Co16:13 Be on the watch, unmoved in the faith, and be strong like men.
1Co16:14 Let all you do be done in love.
1Co16:15 Now I make my request to you, my brothers, for you have knowledge that the house of Stephanas is the first-fruits of Achaia, and that they have made themselves the servants of the saints,
1Co16:16 That you put yourselves under such, and under everyone who is helping the Lord's work.
1Co16:17 And I am glad of the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus: for they have done what was needed to make your work complete.
1Co16:18 For they gave comfort to my spirit and to yours: for which cause give respect to such people.
1Co16:19 The churches of Asia send their love to you. So do Aquila and Prisca, with the church which is in their house.
1Co16:20 All the brothers send their love to you. Give one another a holy kiss.
1Co16:23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
1Co16:24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. So be it.
2Co1:2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2Co1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort;
2Co1:4 Who gives us comfort in all our troubles, so that we may be able to give comfort to others who are in trouble, through the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
2Co1:5 For as we undergo more of the pain which Christ underwent, so through Christ does our comfort become greater.
2Co1:6 But if we are troubled, it is for your comfort and salvation; or if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which takes effect through your quiet undergoing of the same troubles which we undergo:
2Co1:7 And our hope for you is certain; in the knowledge that as you take part in the troubles, so you will take part in the comfort.
2Co1:8 For it is our desire that you may not be without knowledge of our trouble which came on us in Asia, that the weight of it was very great, more than our power, so that it seemed that we had no hope even of life:
2Co1:9 Yes, we ourselves have had the answer of death in ourselves, so that our hope might not be in ourselves, but in God who is able to give life to the dead:
2Co1:10 Who gave us salvation from so great a death: on whom we have put our hope that he will still go on to give us salvation;
2Co1:11 You at the same time helping together by your prayer for us; so that for what has been given to us through a number of persons, praise may go up to God for us from all of them.
2Co1:12 For our glory is in this, in the knowledge which we have that our way of life in the world, and most of all in relation to you, has been holy and true in the eyes of God; not in the wisdom of the flesh, but in the grace of God.
2Co1:13 For in our letters we say no other things to you, but those which you are reading, and to which you give agreement, and, it is my hope, will go on doing so to the end:
2Co1:14 Even as you have been ready, in part, to say that we are your glory, in the same way that you are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus.
2Co1:15 And being certain of this, it was my purpose to come to you before, so that you might have a second grace;
2Co1:16 And by way of Corinth to go into Macedonia, and from there to come back again to you, so that you might send me on my way to Judaea.
2Co1:18 As God is true, our word to you is not Yes and No.
2Co1:19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we were preaching among you, even I and Silvanus and Timothy, was not Yes and No, but in him is Yes.
2Co1:20 For he is the Yes to all the undertakings of God: and by him all the words of God are made certain and put into effect, to the glory of God through us.
2Co1:21 Now he who makes our faith strong together with you, in Christ, and has given us of his grace, is God;
2Co1:22 And it is he who has put his stamp on us, even the Spirit, as the sign in our hearts of the coming glory.
2Co1:23 But God is my witness that it was in pity for you that I did not come to Corinth at that time.
2Co1:24 Not that we have authority over your faith, but we are helpers of your joy: for it is faith which is your support.
2Co2:1 But it was my decision for myself, not to come again to you with sorrow.
2Co2:2 For if I give you sorrow, who then will make me glad, but he who is made sad by me?
2Co2:3 And I said this very thing in my letter, for fear that when I came I might have sorrow from those from whom it was right for me to have joy; being certain of this, that my joy is the joy of you all.
2Co2:4 For out of much trouble and pain of heart and much weeping I sent my letter to you; not to give you sorrow, but so that you might see how great is the love which I have to you.
2Co2:5 But if anyone has been a cause of sorrow, he has been so, not to me only, but in some measure to all of you (I say this that I may not be over-hard on you).
2Co2:8 For which cause my desire is that you will make your love to him clear by your acts.
2Co2:9 And for the same reason I sent you a letter so that I might be certain of your desire to do my orders in all things.
2Co2:10 But if you give forgiveness to anyone, I do the same: for if I have given forgiveness for anything, I have done it because of you, in the person of Christ;
2Co2:11 So that Satan may not get the better of us: for we are not without knowledge of his designs.
2Co2:14 But praise be to God who makes us strong to overcome in Christ, and makes clear through us in every place the value of the knowledge of him.
2Co2:15 For we are a sweet perfume of Christ to God in those who are getting salvation and in those who are going to destruction;
2Co2:17 For we are not like the great number who make use of the word of God for profit: but our words are true, as from God, being said as before God in Christ.
2Co3:1 Do we seem to be again attempting to put ourselves in the right? or have we need, as some have, of letters of approval to you or from you?
2Co3:2 You yourselves are our letter, whose writing is in our heart, open for every man's reading and knowledge;
2Co3:3 For you are clearly a letter of Christ, the fruit of our work, recorded not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in stone, but in hearts of flesh.
2Co3:4 And this is the certain faith which we have in God through Christ:
2Co3:5 Not as if we were able by ourselves to do anything for which we might take the credit; but our power comes from God;
2Co3:6 Who has made us able to be servants of a new agreement; not of the letter, but of the Spirit: for the letter gives death, but the Spirit gives life.
2Co3:12 Having then such a hope, we keep nothing back,
2Co3:14 But their minds were made hard: for to this very day at the reading of the old agreement the same veil is still unlifted; though it is taken away in Christ.
2Co3:15 But to this day, at the reading of the law of Moses, a veil is over their heart.
2Co3:16 But when it is turned to the Lord, the veil will be taken away.
2Co3:18 But we all, with unveiled face giving back as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord who is the Spirit.
2Co4:1 For this reason, because we have been made servants of this new order, through the mercy given to us, we are strong:
2Co4:3 But if our good news is veiled, it is veiled from those who are on the way to destruction:
2Co4:4 Because the god of this world has made blind the minds of those who have not faith, so that the light of the good news of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, might not be shining on them.
2Co4:5 For our preaching is not about ourselves, but about Christ Jesus as Lord, and ourselves as your servants through Jesus.
2Co4:6 Seeing that it is God who said, Let light be shining out of the dark, who has put in our hearts the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
2Co4:7 But we have this wealth in vessels of earth, so that it may be seen that the power comes not from us but from God;
2Co4:8 Troubles are round us on every side, but we are not shut in; things are hard for us, but we see a way out of them;
2Co4:10 In our bodies there is ever the mark of the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our bodies.
2Co4:11 For, while living, we are still being given up to death because of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may be seen in our flesh, though it is under the power of death.
2Co4:12 So then, death is working in us, but life in you.
2Co4:13 But having the same spirit of faith, as it is said in the Writings, The words of my mouth came from the faith in my heart; in the same way, our words are the outcome of our faith;
2Co4:14 Because we are certain that he who made the Lord Jesus come back from the dead, will do the same for us, and will give us a place in his glory with you.
2Co4:15 For we go through all things on account of you, because the greater the number to whom the grace is given, the greater is the praise to the glory of God.
2Co4:16 For which cause we do not give way to weariness; but though our outer man is getting feebler, our inner man is made new day by day.
2Co4:17 For our present trouble, which is only for a short time, is working out for us a much greater weight of glory;
2Co4:18 While our minds are not on the things which are seen, but on the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are for a time; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
2Co5:1 For we are conscious that if this our tent of flesh is taken down, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal, in heaven.
2Co5:2 For in this we are crying in weariness, greatly desiring to be clothed with our house from heaven:
2Co5:4 For truly, we who are in this tent do give out cries of weariness, for the weight of care which is on us; not because we are desiring to be free from the body, but so that we may have our new body, and death may be overcome by life.
2Co5:5 Now he who has made us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a witness of what is to come.
2Co5:6 So, then, we are ever without fear, and though conscious that while we are in the body we are away from the Lord,
2Co5:7 (For we are walking by faith, not by seeing,)
2Co5:8 We are without fear, desiring to be free from the body, and to be with the Lord.
2Co5:9 For this reason we make it our purpose, in the body or away from it, to be well-pleasing to him.
2Co5:10 For we all have to come before Christ to be judged; so that every one of us may get his reward for the things done in the body, good or bad.
2Co5:11 Having in mind, then, the fear of the Lord, we put these things before men, but God sees our hearts; and it is my hope that we may seem right in your eyes.
2Co5:12 We are not again requesting your approval, but we are giving you the chance of taking pride in us, so that you may be able to give an answer to those whose glory is in seeming, and not in the heart.
2Co5:13 For if we are foolish, it is to God; or if we are serious, it is for you.
2Co5:14 For it is the love of Christ which is moving us; because we are of the opinion that if one was put to death for all, then all have undergone death;
2Co5:15 And that he underwent death for all, so that the living might no longer be living to themselves, but to him who underwent death for them and came back from the dead.
2Co5:16 For this reason, from this time forward we have knowledge of no man after the flesh: even if we have had knowledge of Christ after the flesh, we have no longer any such knowledge.
2Co5:18 But all things are of God, who has made us at peace with himself through Christ, and has given to us the work of making peace;
2Co5:19 That is, that God was in Christ making peace between the world and himself, not putting their sins to their account, and having given to us the preaching of this news of peace.
2Co5:20 So we are the representatives of Christ, as if God was making a request to you through us: we make our request to you, in the name of Christ, be at peace with God.
2Co5:21 For him who had no knowledge of sin God made to be sin for us; so that we might become the righteousness of God in him.
2Co6:1 We then, working together with God, make our request to you not to take the grace of God to no purpose.
2Co6:3 Giving no cause for trouble in anything, so that no one may be able to say anything against our work;
2Co6:11 Our mouth is open to you, O Corinthians, our heart is wide.
2Co6:12 It is not our feelings to you which are narrow, but yours to us.
2Co6:13 Now to give me back payment of the same sort (I am talking as to my children), let your hearts be wide open to me.
2Co6:14 Do not keep company with those who have not faith: for what is there in common between righteousness and evil, or between light and dark?
2Co6:16 And what agreement has the house of God with images? for we are a house of the living God; even as God has said, I will be living among them, and walking with them; and I will be their God, and they will be my people.
2Co6:17 For which cause, Come out from among them, and be separate, says the Lord, and let no unclean thing come near you; and I will take you for myself,
2Co6:18 And will be a Father to you; and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord, the Ruler of all.
2Co7:1 Because God, then, will give us such rewards, dear brothers, let us make ourselves clean from all evil of flesh and spirit, and become completely holy in the fear of God.
2Co7:2 Let your hearts be open to us: we have done no man wrong, no man has been damaged by us, we have made no profit out of any man,
2Co7:3 It is not with the purpose of judging you that I say this: for I have said before that you are in our hearts for life and death together.
2Co7:4 My words to you are without fear, I am full of pride on account of you: I have great comfort and joy in all our troubles.
2Co7:5 For even when we had come into Macedonia our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; there were fightings outside and fears inside.
2Co7:6 But God who gives comfort to the poor in spirit gave us comfort by the coming of Titus;
2Co7:7 And not by his coming only, but by the comfort which he had in you, while he gave us word of your desire, your sorrow, your care for me; so that I was still more glad.
2Co7:8 For though my letter gave you pain, I have no regret for it now, though I had before; for I see that the letter gave you pain, but only for a time.
2Co7:9 Now I am glad, not that you had sorrow, but that your sorrow was the cause of a change of heart; for yours was a holy sorrow so that you might undergo no loss by us in anything.
2Co7:11 For you see what care was produced in you by this very sorrow of yours before God, what clearing of yourselves, what wrath against sin, what fear, what desire, what serious purpose, what punishment. In everything you have made it clear that you are free from sin in this business.
2Co7:12 So though I sent you a letter, it was not only because of the man who did the wrong, or because of him to whom the wrong was done, but so that your true care for us might be made clear in the eyes of God.
2Co7:13 So we have been comforted: and we had the greater joy in our comfort because of the joy of Titus, for his spirit had been made glad by you all.
2Co7:14 For I was not put to shame in anything in which I may have made clear to him my pride in you; but as we said nothing to you but what was true, so the good things which I said to Titus about you were seen by him to be true.
2Co7:15 And his love to you is the more increased by his memory of you all, how you gave way to his authority, and how you took him to your hearts with fear and honour.
2Co7:16 It gives me great joy to see you answering to my good opinion of you in every way.
2Co8:1 And now we give you news, brothers, about the grace of God which has been given to the churches of Macedonia;
2Co8:2 How while they were undergoing every sort of trouble, and were in the greatest need, they took all the greater joy in being able to give freely to the needs of others.
2Co8:3 For I give them witness, that as they were able, and even more than they were able, they gave from the impulse of their hearts,
2Co8:4 Seriously requesting us that they might have a part in this grace of being servants to the needs of the saints:
2Co8:5 And going even farther than our hope, they first gave themselves to the Lord and to us after the purpose of God.
2Co8:6 So that we made a request to Titus that, as he had made a start before, so he might make this grace complete in you.
2Co8:7 And that as you are full of every good thing, of faith, of the word, of knowledge, of a ready mind, and of love to us, so you may be full of this grace in the same way.
2Co8:8 I am not giving you an order, but using the ready mind of others as a test of the quality of your love.
2Co8:9 For you see the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, how though he had wealth, he became poor on your account, so that through his need you might have wealth.
2Co8:10 And in this I give my opinion: for it is to your profit, who were the first to make a start a year before, not only to do this, but to make clear that your minds were more than ready to do it.
2Co8:11 Then make the doing of it complete; so that as you had a ready mind, you may give effect to it as you are able.
2Co8:13 And I am not saying this so that others may get off free, while the weight comes on you:
2Co8:14 But so that things may be equal; that from those things of which you have more than enough at the present time their need may be helped, and that if you are in any need they may be a help to you in the same way, making things equal.
2Co8:16 But praise be to God, who puts the same care for you into the heart of Titus.
2Co8:17 For while he gladly gave ear to our request, he was interested enough to go to you from the impulse of his heart.
2Co8:18 And with him we have sent a brother whose praise in the good news has gone through all the churches;
2Co8:19 And not only so, but he was marked out by the churches to go with us in the grace of this giving which we have undertaken to the glory of the Lord and to make clear that our mind was ready:
2Co8:20 And so that no man might be able to say anything against us in the business of this giving which has been put into our hands:
2Co8:21 For the business has been so ordered by us as to have the approval, not only of the Lord, but of men.
2Co8:22 And we have sent with them our brother, whose ready spirit has been made clear to us at times and in ways without number, but it is now all the more so because of the certain faith which he has in you.
2Co8:23 If any question comes up about Titus, he is my brother-worker, working with me for you; or about the others, they are the representatives of the churches to the glory of Christ.
2Co8:24 Make clear then to them, as representatives of the churches, the quality of your love, and that the things which we have said about you are true.
2Co9:1 But there is no need for me to say anything in my letter about the giving to the saints:
2Co9:2 For I have before made clear to those of Macedonia my pride in your ready mind, saying to them that Achaia has been ready for a year back; and a great number have been moved to do the same by your example.
2Co9:3 But I have sent the brothers, so that the good things we said about you may be seen to be true, and that, as I said, you may be ready:
2Co9:4 For fear that, if any from Macedonia come with me, and you are not ready, we (not to say, you) might be put to shame in this thing.
2Co9:5 So it seemed to me wise for the brothers to go before, and see that the amount which you had undertaken to give was ready, so that it might be a cause for praise, and not as if we were making profit out of you.
2Co9:8 And God is able to give you all grace in full measure; so that ever having enough of all things, you may be full of every good work:
2Co9:10 And he who gives seed for putting into the field and bread for food, will take care of the growth of your seed, at the same time increasing the fruits of your righteousness;
2Co9:11 Your wealth being increased in everything, with a simple mind, causing praise to God through us.
2Co9:13 For when, through this work of giving, they see what you are, they give glory to God for the way in which you have given yourselves to the good news of Christ, and for the wealth of your giving to them and to all;
2Co9:14 While their hearts go out to you in love and in prayer for you, because of the great grace of God which is in you.
2Co10:1 Now I, Paul, myself make request to you by the quiet and gentle behaviour of Christ, I who am poor in spirit when with you, but who say what is in my mind to you without fear when I am away from you:
2Co10:2 Yes, I make my request to you, so that when I am with you I may not have to make use of the authority which may be needed against some to whom we seem to be walking after the flesh.
2Co10:3 For though we may be living in the flesh, we are not fighting after the way of the flesh
2Co10:4 (For the arms with which we are fighting are not those of the flesh, but are strong before God for the destruction of high places);
2Co10:6 Being ready to give punishment to whatever is against his authority, after you have made it clear that you are completely under his control.
2Co10:7 Give attention to the things which are before you. If any man seems to himself to be Christ's, let him keep in mind that we are as much Christ's as he is.
2Co10:8 For though I might take pride in our authority (which the Lord gave for building you up, and not for your destruction), it will not be a cause of shame to me:
2Co10:9 That I may not seem to have the desire of causing you fear by my letters.
2Co10:11 Let those who say this keep in mind that, what we are in word by letters when we are away, so will we be in act when we are present.
2Co10:12 For we will not make comparison of ourselves with some of those who say good things about themselves: but these, measuring themselves by themselves, and making comparison of themselves with themselves, are not wise.
2Co10:13 We will not give glory to ourselves in over-great measure, but after the measure of the rule which God has given us, a measure which comes even to you.
2Co10:14 For we have no need to make ourselves seem more than we are, as if our authority did not come as far as to you: for we came even as far as you with the good news of Christ:
2Co10:15 Not taking credit to ourselves for what is not our business, that is, for the work of others; but having hope that, with the growth of your faith, we may get the credit for an increase which is the effect of our work,
2Co10:16 So that we may be able to go on and take the good news to countries still farther away than you are, and not take credit for another man's work in making things ready to our hand.
2Co11:1 Put up with me if I am a little foolish: but, truly, you do put up with me.
2Co11:2 For I have a very great care for you: because you have been married by me to one husband, and it is my desire to give you completely holy to Christ.
2Co11:3 But I have a fear, that in some way, as Eve was tricked by the deceit of the snake, your minds may be turned away from their simple and holy love for Christ.
2Co11:4 For if anyone comes preaching another Jesus from the one whose preachers we are, or if you have got a different spirit, or a different sort of good news from those which came to you, how well you put up with these things.
2Co11:6 But though I am rough in my way of talking, I am not so in knowledge, as we have made clear to all by our acts among you.
2Co11:7 Or did I do wrong in making myself low so that you might be lifted up, because I gave you the good news of God without reward?
2Co11:8 I took money from other churches as payment for my work, so that I might be your servant;
2Co11:9 And when I was present with you, and was in need, I let no man be responsible for me; for the brothers, when they came from Macedonia, gave me whatever was needed; and in everything I kept myself from being a trouble to you, and I will go on doing so.
2Co11:11 Why? because I have no love for you? let God be judge.
2Co11:12 But what I do, that I will go on doing, so that I may give no chance to those who are looking for one; so that, in the cause of their pride, they may be seen to be the same as we are.
2Co11:15 So it is no great thing if his servants make themselves seem to be servants of righteousness; whose end will be the reward of their works.
2Co11:19 For you put up with the foolish gladly, being wise yourselves.
2Co11:20 You put up with a man if he makes servants of you, if he makes profit out of you, if he makes you prisoners, if he puts himself in a high place, if he gives you blows on the face.
2Co11:21 I say this by way of shaming ourselves, as if we had been feeble. But if anyone puts himself forward (I am talking like a foolish person), I will do the same.
2Co11:22 Are they Hebrews? so am I. Are they of Israel? so am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? so am I.
2Co11:23 Are they servants of Christ? (I am talking foolishly) I am more so; I have had more experience of hard work, of prisons, of blows more than measure, of death.
2Co12:11 I have been forced by you to become foolish, though it was right for my praise to have come from you: for in no way was I less than the chief of the Apostles, though I am nothing.
2Co12:12 Truly the signs of an Apostle were done among you in quiet strength, with wonders and acts of power.
2Co12:13 For what is there in which you were made less than the other churches, but in the one thing that I was not a trouble to you? Let me have forgiveness for this wrong.
2Co12:14 This is now the third time that I am ready to come to you; and I will not be a trouble to you: my desire is for you, not for your property: for it is not the children's business to make store for their fathers, but the fathers for the children.
2Co12:15 And I will gladly give all I have for your souls. If I have the more love for you, am I to be loved the less?
2Co12:16 But let it be so, that I was not a trouble to you myself; but (someone may say) being false, I took you with deceit.
2Co12:17 Did I make a profit out of you by any of those whom I sent to you?
2Co12:18 I gave orders to Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus make any profit out of you? were we not guided by the same Spirit, in the same ways?
2Co12:19 It may seem to you that all this time we have been attempting to put ourselves in the right; but we are saying these things before God in Christ. For all things, dear brothers, are for your profit.
2Co12:20 For I have a fear that, when I come, you may not be answering to my desire, and that I may not be answering to yours; that there may be fighting, hate, angry feeling, divisions, evil talk about others, secrets, thoughts of pride, outbursts against authority;
2Co12:21 And that when I come again, my God may put me to shame among you, and I may have grief for those who have done wrong before and have had no regret for their unclean ways, and for the evil desires of the flesh to which they have given way.
2Co13:1 This is the third time that I am coming to you. From the mouth of two or three witnesses will every word be made certain.
2Co13:2 I said before, and still say it before I come, as being present for the second time, though I am still away from you, to those who have done wrong before, and to all the others, that if I come again I will not have pity;
2Co13:3 Seeing that you are looking for a sign of Christ giving out his word in me; who is not feeble in relation to you, but is strong in you:
2Co13:4 For he was feeble in that he was put to death on the cross, but he is living by the power of God. And we are feeble in him, but we will be living with him through the power of God in relation to you.
2Co13:5 Make a test of yourselves, if you are in the faith; make certain of yourselves. Or are you not conscious in yourselves that Jesus Christ is in you, if you are truly Christ's?
2Co13:6 But it is my hope that you will have no doubt that we are truly Christ's.
2Co13:7 Now our prayer to God is that you may do no evil; not in order that it may be put to our credit, but so that you may do what is right, whatever we may seem.
2Co13:8 Because we are able to do nothing against what is true, but only for it.
2Co13:9 For we are glad when we are feeble and you are strong: and this is our prayer, even that you may be made complete.
2Co13:10 For this cause I am writing these things while I am away, so that there may be need for me, when I am present, to make use of sharp measures, by the authority which the Lord has given me for building up and not for destruction.
2Co13:11 Let this be my last word, brothers; be glad; be complete; be comforted; be of the same mind; be at peace with one another: and the God of love and peace will be with you.
2Co13:12 Give one another a holy kiss. All the saints send their love to you.
2Co13:13 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the harmony of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.
Gal1:1 Paul, an Apostle (not from men, and not through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who made him come back from the dead),
Gal1:3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
Gal1:4 Who gave himself for our sins, so that he might make us free from this present evil world, after the purpose of our God and Father:
Gal1:5 To whom be the glory for ever and ever. So be it.
Gal1:6 I am surprised that you are being so quickly turned away from him whose word came to you in the grace of Christ, to good news of a different sort;
Gal1:7 Which is not another sort: only there are some who give you trouble, desiring to make changes in the good news of Christ.
Gal1:8 But even if we, or an angel from heaven, were to be a preacher to you of good news other than that which we have given you, let there be a curse on him.
Gal1:9 As we have said before, so say I now again, If any man is a preacher to you of any good news other than that which has been given to you, let there be a curse on him.
Gal1:11 Because I say to you, my brothers, that the good news of which I was the preacher is not man's.
Gal1:13 For news has come to you of my way of life in the past in the Jews' religion, how I was cruel without measure to the church of God, and did great damage to it:
Gal1:20 Now God is witness that the things which I am writing to you are true.
Gal1:23 Only it came to their ears that he who at one time was cruel to us is now preaching the faith which before had been attacked by him;
Gal1:24 And they gave glory to God in me.
Gal2:2 And I went up by revelation; and I put before them the good news which I was preaching among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were of good name, so that the work which I was or had been doing might not be without effect.
Gal2:4 And that because of the false brothers let in secretly, who came searching out our free condition which we have in Christ Jesus, so that they might make servants of us;
Gal2:5 To whom we gave way not even for an hour; so that the true words of the good news might still be with you.
Gal2:9 When they saw the grace which was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who had the name of being pillars, gave to me and Barnabas their right hands as friends so that we might go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcision;
Gal2:10 Only it was their desire that we would give thought to the poor; which very thing I had much in mind to do.
Gal2:12 For before certain men came from James, he did take food with the Gentiles: but when they came, he went back and made himself separate, fearing those who were of the circumcision.
Gal2:14 But when I saw that they were not living uprightly in agreement with the true words of the good news, I said to Cephas before them all, If you, being a Jew, are living like the Gentiles, and not like the Jews, how will you make the Gentiles do the same as the Jews?
Gal2:15 We being Jews by birth, and not sinners of the Gentiles,
Gal2:16 Being conscious that a man does not get righteousness by the works of the law, but through faith in Jesus Christ, we had faith in Christ Jesus, so that we might get righteousness by faith in Christ, and not by the works of the law: because by the works of the law will no flesh get righteousness.
Gal2:17 But if, while we were desiring to get righteousness through Christ, we ourselves were seen to be sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? In no way!
Gal3:1 O foolish Galatians, by what strange powers have you been tricked, to whom it was made clear that Jesus Christ was put to death on the cross?
Gal3:2 Give me an answer to this one question, Did the Spirit come to you through the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Gal3:3 Are you so foolish? having made a start in the Spirit, will you now be made complete in the flesh?
Gal3:4 Did you undergo such a number of things to no purpose? if it is in fact to no purpose.
Gal3:5 He who gives you the Spirit, and does works of power among you, is it by the works of law, or by the hearing of faith?
Gal3:7 Be certain, then, that those who are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.
Gal3:13 Christ has made us free from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us: because it is said in the Writings, A curse on everyone who is put to death by hanging on a tree:
Gal3:14 So that on the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus; in order that we through faith might have the Spirit which God had undertaken to give.
Gal3:15 Brothers, as men would say, even a man's agreement, when it has been made certain, may not be put on one side, or have additions made to it.
Gal3:23 But before faith came, we were kept in prison under the law, waiting for the revelation of the faith which was to come.
Gal3:24 So the law has been a servant to take us to Christ, so that we might have righteousness by faith.
Gal3:25 But now that faith is come, we are no longer under a servant.
Gal3:26 Because you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus.
Gal3:27 For all those of you who were given baptism into Christ did put on Christ.
Gal3:28 There is no Jew or Greek, servant or free, male or female: because you are all one in Jesus Christ.
Gal3:29 And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and yours is the heritage by the right of God's undertaking given to Abraham.
Gal4:3 So we, when we were young, were kept under the first rules of the world;
Gal4:5 That he might make them free who were under the law, and that we might be given the place of sons.
Gal4:6 And because you are sons, God has sent out the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, saying, Abba, Father.
Gal4:8 But at that time, having no knowledge of God, you were servants to those who by right are no gods:
Gal4:9 But now that you have come to have knowledge of God, or more truly, God has knowledge of you, how is it that you go back again to the poor and feeble first things, desiring to be servants to them again?
Gal4:10 You keep days, and months, and fixed times, and years.
Gal4:11 I am in fear of you, that I may have been working for you to no purpose.
Gal4:12 My desire for you, brothers, is that you may be as I am, because I am as you are. You have done me no wrong;
Gal4:13 But you have knowledge that with a feeble body I was preaching the good news to you the first time;
Gal4:14 And you did not have a poor opinion of me because of the trouble in my flesh, or put shame on it; but you took me to your hearts as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
Gal4:15 Where then is that happy condition of yours? because I give you witness, that, if possible, you would have taken out your eyes and given them to me.
Gal4:16 So then am I no longer your friend, because I give you true words?
Gal4:17 Their interest in you is not good; but their desire is that you may be shut out, so that you may go after them.
Gal4:18 But it is good to have an interest in a good cause at all times, and not only when I am present with you.
Gal4:19 My children, of whom I am again in birth-pains till Christ is formed in you,
Gal4:20 Truly my desire is to be present with you now, using a changed voice; for I am troubled about you.
Gal4:21 Say, you whose desire it is to be under the law, do you not give ear to the law?
Gal4:26 But the Jerusalem on high is free, which is our mother.
Gal4:28 Now we, brothers, as Isaac was, are the children of the undertaking of God.
Gal4:31 So, brothers, we are not children of the servant-woman, but of the free woman.
Gal5:1 Christ has truly made us free: then keep your free condition and let no man put a yoke on you again.
Gal5:2 See, I Paul say to you, that if you undergo circumcision, Christ will be of no use to you.
Gal5:4 You are cut off from Christ, you who would have righteousness by the law; you are turned away from grace.
Gal5:5 For we through the Spirit by faith are waiting for the hope of righteousness.
Gal5:7 You were going on well; who was the cause of your not giving ear to what is true?
Gal5:8 This ready belief did not come from him who had made you his.
Gal5:10 I am certain about you in the Lord, that you will be of no other mind; but he who is troubling you will have his punishment, whoever he is.
Gal5:11 But I, brothers, if I am still preaching circumcision, why am I still attacked? then has the shame of the cross been taken away.
Gal5:12 My desire is that they who give you trouble might even be cut off themselves.
Gal5:13 Because you, brothers, were marked out to be free; only do not make use of your free condition to give the flesh its chance, but through love be servants one to another.
Gal5:15 But if you are given to fighting with one another, take care that you are not the cause of destruction one to another.
Gal5:16 But I say, Go on in the Spirit, and you will not come under the rule of the evil desires of the flesh.
Gal5:17 For the flesh has desires against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; because these are opposite the one to the other; so that you may not do the things which you have a mind to do.
Gal5:18 But if you are guided by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
Gal5:21 Envy, uncontrolled drinking and feasting, and such things: of which I give you word clearly, even as I did in the past, that they who do such things will have no part in the kingdom of God.
Gal5:25 If we are living by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us be guided.
Gal6:1 Brothers, if a man is taken in any wrongdoing, you who are of the Spirit will put such a one right in a spirit of love; keeping watch on yourself, for fear that you yourself may be tested.
Gal6:2 Take on yourselves one another's troubles, and so keep the law of Christ.
Gal6:9 And let us not get tired of well-doing; for at the right time we will get in the grain, if we do not give way to weariness.
Gal6:11 See the size of the handwriting which I myself have made use of in writing to you.
Gal6:12 Those who have the desire to seem important in the flesh, put force on you to undergo circumcision; only that they may not be attacked because of the cross of Christ.
Gal6:13 Because even those who undergo circumcision do not themselves keep the law; but they would have you undergo circumcision, so that they may have glory in your flesh.
Gal6:14 But far be it from me to have glory in anything, but only in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which this world has come to an end on the cross for me, and I for it.
Gal6:16 And on all who are guided by this rule be peace and mercy, and on the Israel of God.
Gal6:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. So be it.
Eph1:2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Eph1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has given us every blessing of the Spirit in the heavens in Christ:
Eph1:4 Even as he made selection of us in him from the first, so that we might be holy and free from all evil before him in love:
Eph1:5 As we were designed before by him for the position of sons to himself, through Jesus Christ, in the good pleasure of his purpose,
Eph1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, which he freely gave to us in the Loved One:
Eph1:7 In whom we have salvation through his blood, the forgiveness of our sins, through the wealth of his grace,
Eph1:8 Which he gave us in full measure in all wisdom and care;
Eph1:9 Having made clear to us the secret of his purpose, in agreement with the design which he had in mind, to put into his hands
Eph1:11 In whom we have a heritage, being marked out from the first in his purpose who does all things in agreement with his designs;
Eph1:12 So that his glory might have praise through us who first had hope in Christ:
Eph1:13 In whom you, having been given the true word, the good news of your salvation, and through your faith in him, were given the sign of the Holy Spirit of hope,
Eph1:14 Which is the first-fruit of our heritage, till God gets back that which is his, to the praise of his glory.
Eph1:15 For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints,
Eph1:16 Give praise without end for you, keeping you in mind in my prayers;
Eph1:17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you a spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him;
Eph1:18 And that having the eyes of your heart full of light, you may have knowledge of what is the hope of his purpose, what is the wealth of the glory of his heritage in the saints,
Eph1:19 And how unlimited is his power to us who have faith, as is seen in the working of the strength of his power,
Eph2:1 And to you did he give life, when you were dead through your wrongdoing and sins,
Eph2:2 In which you were living in the past, after the ways of this present world, doing the pleasure of the lord of the power of the air, the spirit who is now working in those who go against the purpose of God;
Eph2:3 Among whom we all at one time were living in the pleasures of our flesh, giving way to the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and the punishment of God was waiting for us even as for the rest.
Eph2:4 But God, being full of mercy, through the great love which he had for us,
Eph2:5 Even when we were dead through our sins, gave us life together with Christ (by grace you have salvation),
Eph2:6 So that we came back from death with him, and are seated with him in the heavens, in Christ Jesus;
Eph2:7 That in the time to come he might make clear the full wealth of his grace in his mercy to us in Christ Jesus:
Eph2:8 Because by grace you have salvation through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is given by God:
Eph2:10 For by his act we were given existence in Christ Jesus to do those good works which God before made ready for us so that we might do them.
Eph2:11 For this reason keep it in mind that in the past you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are looked on as being outside the circumcision by those who have circumcision, in the flesh, made by hands;
Eph2:12 That you were at that time without Christ, being cut off from any part in Israel's rights as a nation, having no part in God's agreement, having no hope, and without God in the world.
Eph2:13 But now in Christ Jesus you who at one time were far off are made near in the blood of Christ.
Eph2:14 For he is our peace, who has made the two into one, and by whom the middle wall of division has been broken down,
Eph2:17 And he came preaching peace to you who were far off, and to those who were near;
Eph2:18 Because through him the two of us are able to come near in one Spirit to the Father.
Eph2:19 So then you are no longer as those who have no part or place in the kingdom of God, but you are numbered among the saints, and of the family of God,
Eph2:22 In whom you, with the rest, are united together as a living-place of God in the Spirit.
Eph3:1 For this cause I Paul, the prisoner of Christ Jesus for you Gentiles,
Eph3:2 If that ordering of the grace of God has come to your knowledge, which was given to me for you,
Eph3:4 By the reading of which you will be clear about my knowledge of the secret of Christ;
Eph3:11 Which is seen in his eternal purpose in Christ Jesus our Lord:
Eph3:12 By whom we come near to God without fear through faith in him.
Eph3:13 For this reason it is my prayer that you may not become feeble because of my troubles for you, which are your glory.
Eph3:16 That in the wealth of his glory he would make you strong with power through his Spirit in your hearts;
Eph3:17 So that Christ may have his place in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and based in love,
Eph3:19 And to have knowledge of the love of Christ which is outside all knowledge, so that you may be made complete as God himself is complete.
Eph3:20 Now to him who is able to do in full measure more than all our desires or thoughts, through the power which is working in us,
Eph3:21 To him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations for ever and ever. So be it.
Eph4:1 I then, the prisoner in the Lord, make this request from my heart, that you will see that your behaviour is a credit to the position which God's purpose has given you,
Eph4:4 There is one body and one Spirit, even as you have been marked out by God in the one hope of his purpose for you;
Eph4:7 But to every one of us has grace been given in the measure of the giving of Christ.
Eph4:13 Till we all come to the harmony of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to full growth, to the full measure of Christ:
Eph4:14 So that we may be no longer children, sent this way and that, turned about by every wind of teaching, by the twisting and tricks of men, by the deceits of error;
Eph4:17 This I say, then, and give witness in the Lord, that you are to go no longer in the way of the Gentiles whose minds are turned to that which has no profit,
Eph4:18 Whose thoughts are dark, to whom the life of God is strange because they are without knowledge, and their hearts have been made hard;
Eph4:20 For this was not the teaching of Christ which was given to you;
Eph4:21 If in fact you gave ear to him, and were given teaching in him, even as what is true is made clear in Jesus:
Eph4:22 That you are to put away, in relation to your earlier way of life, the old man, which has become evil by love of deceit;
Eph4:23 And be made new in the spirit of your mind,
Eph4:25 And so, putting away false words, let everyone say what is true to his neighbour: for we are parts one of another.
Eph4:30 And do not give grief to the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were marked for the day of salvation.
Eph4:31 Let all bitter, sharp and angry feeling, and noise, and evil words, be put away from you, with all unkind acts;
Eph4:32 And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.
Eph5:1 Let it then be your desire to be like God, as well-loved children;
Eph5:2 And be living in love, even as Christ had love for you, and gave himself up for us, an offering to God for a perfume of a sweet smell.
Eph5:3 But evil acts of the flesh and all unclean things, or desire for others' property, let it not even be named among you, as is right for saints;
Eph5:5 Being certain of this, that no man who gives way to the passions of the flesh, no unclean person, or one who has desire for the property of others, or who gives worship to images, has any heritage in the kingdom of Christ and God.
Eph5:7 Have no part with such men;
Eph5:8 For you at one time were dark, but now are light in the Lord: let your behaviour be that of children of light
Eph5:12 For the things which are done by them in secret it is shame even to put into words.
Eph5:15 Take care then how you are living, not as unwise, but as wise;
Eph5:20 Giving praise at all times for all things in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to God, even the Father;
Eph5:22 Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as of the Lord.
Eph5:25 Husbands, have love for your wives, even as Christ had love for the church, and gave himself for it;
Eph5:30 Because we are parts of his body.
Eph5:33 But do you, everyone, have love for his wife, even as for himself; and let the wife see that she has respect for her husband.
Eph6:1 Children, do what is ordered by your fathers and mothers in the Lord: for this is right.
Eph6:4 And, you fathers, do not make your children angry: but give them training in the teaching and fear of the Lord.
Eph6:5 Servants, do what is ordered by those who are your natural masters, having respect and fear for them, with all your heart, as to Christ;
Eph6:9 And, you masters, do the same things to them, not making use of violent words: in the knowledge that their Master and yours is in heaven, and he has no respect for a man's position.
Eph6:10 Lastly, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of his power.
Eph6:12 For our fight is not against flesh and blood, but against authorities and powers, against the world-rulers of this dark night, against the spirits of evil in the heavens.
Eph6:21 But so that you may have knowledge of my business, and how I am, Tychicus, the well-loved brother and tested servant in the Lord, will give you news of all things:
Eph6:22 Whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, so that you may have knowledge of our position, and that he may give comfort to your hearts.
Eph6:23 Peace be to the brothers, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Eph6:24 Grace be with all those who have true love for our Lord Jesus Christ.
Phl1:2 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Phl1:3 I give praise to my God at every memory of you,
Phl1:4 And in all my prayers for you all, making my request with joy,
Phl1:5 Because of your help in giving the good news from the first day till now;
Phl1:6 For I am certain of this very thing, that he by whom the good work was started in you will make it complete till the day of Jesus Christ:
Phl1:7 So it is right for me to take thought for you all in this way, because I have you in my heart; for in my chains, and in my arguments before the judges in support of the good news, making clear that it is true, you all have your part with me in grace.
Phl1:8 For God is my witness, how my love goes out to you all in the loving mercies of Christ Jesus.
Phl1:9 And my prayer is that you may be increased more and more in knowledge and experience;
Phl1:10 So that you may give your approval to the best things; that you may be true and without wrongdoing till the day of Christ;
Phl1:12 Now it is my purpose to make clear to you, brothers, that the cause of the good news has been helped by my experiences;
Phl1:19 For I am conscious that this will be for my salvation, through your prayer and the giving out of the stored wealth of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,
Phl1:24 Still, to go on in the flesh is more necessary because of you.
Phl1:25 And being certain of this, I am conscious that I will go on, yes, and go on with you all, for your growth and joy in the faith;
Phl1:26 So that your pride in me may be increased in Christ Jesus through my being present with you again.
Phl1:27 Only let your behaviour do credit to the good news of Christ, so that if I come and see you or if I am away from you, I may have news of you that you are strong in one spirit, working together with one soul for the faith of the good news;
Phl1:28 Having no fear of those who are against you; which is a clear sign of their destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God;
Phl1:29 Because to you it has been given in the cause of Christ not only to have faith in him, but to undergo pain on his account:
Phl1:30 Fighting the same fight which you saw in me, and now have word of in me.
Phl2:2 Make my joy complete by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in harmony and of one mind;
Phl2:5 Let this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus,
Phl2:12 So then, my loved ones, as you have at all times done what I say, not only when I am present, but now much more when I am not with you, give yourselves to working out your salvation with fear in your hearts;
Phl2:13 For it is God who is the cause of your desires and of your acts, for his good pleasure.
Phl2:15 So that you may be holy and gentle, children of God without sin in a twisted and foolish generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,
Phl2:17 And even if I am offered like a drink offering, giving myself for the cause and work of your faith, I am glad and have joy with you all:
Phl2:18 And in the same way do you be glad and have a part in my joy.
Phl2:19 But I am hoping in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you before long, so that I may be comforted when I have news of you.
Phl2:20 For I have no man of like mind who will truly have care for you.
Phl2:22 But his quality is clear to you; how, as a child is to its father, so he was a help to me in the work of the good news.
Phl2:25 But it seemed to me necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, who has taken part with me in the work and in the fight, and your servant, sent by you for help in my need;
Phl2:26 Because his heart was with you all, and he was greatly troubled because you had news that he was ill:
Phl2:28 I have sent him, then, the more gladly, so that when you see him again, you may be happy and I may have the less sorrow.
Phl2:29 So take him to your hearts in the Lord with all joy, and give honour to such as he is:
Phl2:30 Because for the work of Christ he was near to death, putting his life in danger to make your care for me complete.
Phl3:1 For the rest, my brothers, be glad in the Lord. Writing the same things to you is no trouble to me, and for you it is safe.
Phl3:3 For we are the circumcision, who give worship to God and have glory in Jesus Christ, and have no faith in the flesh:
Phl3:13 Brothers, it is clear to me that I have not come to that knowledge; but one thing I do, letting go those things which are past, and stretching out to the things which are before,
Phl3:15 Then let us all, who have come to full growth, be of this mind: and if in anything you are of a different mind, even this will God make clear to you:
Phl3:16 Only, as far as we have got, let us be guided by the same rule.
Phl3:17 Brothers, take me as your example, and take note of those who are walking after the example we have given.
Phl3:18 For there are those, of whom I have given you word before, and do so now with sorrow, who are haters of the cross of Christ;
Phl3:19 Whose end is destruction, whose god is the stomach, and whose glory is in their shame, whose minds are fixed on the things of the earth.
Phl3:20 For our country is in heaven; from where the Saviour for whom we are waiting will come, even the Lord Jesus Christ:
Phl3:21 By whom this poor body of ours will be changed into the image of the body of his glory, in the measure of the working by which he is able to put all things under himself.
Phl4:1 So my brothers, well loved and very dear to me, my joy and crown, be strong in the Lord, my loved ones.
Phl4:3 And I make request to you, true helper in my work, to see to the needs of those women who took part with me in the good news, with Clement and the rest of my brother-workers whose names are in the book of life.
Phl4:4 Be glad in the Lord at all times: again I say, Be glad.
Phl4:5 Let your gentle behaviour be clear to all men. The Lord is near.
Phl4:6 Have no cares; but in everything with prayer and praise put your requests before God.
Phl4:7 And the peace of God, which is deeper than all knowledge, will keep your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
Phl4:8 For the rest, my brothers, whatever things are true, whatever things have honour, whatever things are upright, whatever things are holy, whatever things are beautiful, whatever things are of value, if there is any virtue and if there is any praise, give thought to these things.
Phl4:9 The things which came to you by my teaching and preaching, and which you saw in me, these things do, and the God of peace will be with you.
Phl4:10 But I am very glad in the Lord that your care for me has come to life again; though you did in fact take thought for me, but you were not able to give effect to it.
Phl4:14 But you did well to have care for me in my need.
Phl4:15 And you have knowledge, Philippians, that when the good news first came to you, when I went away from Macedonia, no church took part with me in the business of giving to the saints, but you only;
Phl4:16 Because even in Thessalonica you sent once and again to me in my need.
Phl4:17 Not that I am looking for an offering, but for fruit which may be put to your credit.
Phl4:18 I have all things and more than enough: I am made full, having had from Epaphroditus the things which came from you, a perfume of a sweet smell, an offering well pleasing to God.
Phl4:19 And my God will give you all you have need of from the wealth of his glory in Christ Jesus.
Phl4:20 Now to God our Father be glory for ever and ever. So be it.
Phl4:21 Give words of love to every saint in Christ Jesus. The brothers who are with me send you their love.
Phl4:22 All the saints send their love to you, specially those who are of Caesar's house.
Phl4:23 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.
Col1:2 To the saints and true brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace to you and peace from God our Father.
Col1:3 We give praise to God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, making prayer for you at all times,
Col1:4 After hearing of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which you have for all the saints,
Col1:5 Through the hope which is in store for you in heaven; knowledge of which was given to you before in the true word of the good news,
Col1:6 Which has come to you; and which in all the world is giving fruit and increase, as it has done in you from the day when it came to your ears and you had true knowledge of the grace of God;
Col1:7 As it was given to you by Epaphras, our well-loved helper, who is a true servant of Christ for us,
Col1:8 And who, himself, made clear to us your love in the Spirit.
Col1:9 For this reason, we, from the day when we had word of it, keep on in prayer for you, that you may be full of the knowledge of his purpose, with all wisdom and experience of the Spirit,
Col1:10 Living uprightly in the approval of the Lord, giving fruit in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
Col1:11 Full of strength in the measure of the great power of his glory, so that you may undergo all troubles with joy;
Col1:12 Giving praise to the Father who has given us a part in the heritage of the saints in light;
Col1:13 Who has made us free from the power of evil and given us a place in the kingdom of the Son of his love;
Col1:14 In whom we have our salvation, the forgiveness of sins:
Col1:21 And you, who in the past were cut off and at war with God in your minds through evil works, he has now made one
Col1:22 In the body of his flesh through death, so that you might be holy and without sin and free from all evil before him:
Col1:23 If you keep yourselves safely based in the faith, not moved from the hope of the good news which came to you, and which was given to every living being under heaven; of which I, Paul, was made a servant.
Col1:24 Now I have joy in my pain because of you, and in my flesh I undergo whatever is still needed to make the sorrows of Christ complete, for the salvation of his body, the church;
Col1:25 Of which I became a servant by the purpose of God which was given to me for you, to give effect to the word of God,
Col1:27 To whom God was pleased to give knowledge of the wealth of the glory of this secret among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
Col1:28 Whom we are preaching; guiding and teaching every man in all wisdom, so that every man may be complete in Christ;
Col2:1 For it is my desire to give you news of the great fight I am making for you and for those at Laodicea, and for all who have not seen my face in the flesh;
Col2:2 So that their hearts may be comforted, and that being joined together in love, they may come to the full wealth of the certain knowledge of the secret of God, even Christ,
Col2:4 I say this so that you may not be turned away by any deceit of words.
Col2:5 For though I am not present in the flesh, still I am with you in the spirit, seeing with joy your order, and your unchanging faith in Christ.
Col2:6 As, then, you took Christ Jesus the Lord, so go on in him,
Col2:7 Rooted and based together in him, strong in the faith which the teaching gave you, giving praise to God at all times.
Col2:8 Take care that no one takes you away by force, through man's wisdom and deceit, going after the beliefs of men and the theories of the world, and not after Christ:
Col2:10 And you are complete in him, who is the head of all rule and authority:
Col2:11 In whom you had a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;
Col2:12 Having been put to death with him in baptism, by which you came to life again with him, through faith in the working of God, who made him come back from the dead.
Col2:13 And you, being dead through your sins and the evil condition of your flesh, to you, I say, he gave life together with him, and forgiveness of all our sins;
Col2:14 Having put an end to the handwriting of the law which was against us, taking it out of the way by nailing it to his cross;
Col2:16 For this reason let no man be your judge in any question of food or drink or feast days or new moons or Sabbaths:
Col2:18 Let no man take your reward from you by consciously making little of himself and giving worship to angels; having his thoughts fixed on the things which he has seen, being foolishly lifted up in his natural mind,
Col2:20 If you were made free, by your death with Christ, from the rules of the world, why do you put yourselves under the authority of orders
Col3:1 If then you have a new life with Christ, give your attention to the things of heaven, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
Col3:2 Keep your mind on the higher things, not on the things of earth.
Col3:3 For your life on earth is done, and you have a secret life with Christ in God.
Col3:4 At the coming of Christ who is our life, you will be seen with him in glory.
Col3:5 Then put to death your bodies which are of the earth; wrong use of the flesh, unclean things, passion, evil desires and envy, which is the worship of strange gods;
Col3:7 Among whom you were living in the past, when you did such things.
Col3:8 But now it is right for you to put away all these things; wrath, passion, bad feeling, curses, unclean talk;
Col3:9 Do not make false statements to one another; because you have put away the old man with all his doings,
Col3:12 As saints of God, then, holy and dearly loved, let your behaviour be marked by pity and mercy, kind feeling, a low opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, and a power of undergoing all things;
Col3:13 Being gentle to one another and having forgiveness for one another, if anyone has done wrong to his brother, even as the Lord had forgiveness for you:
Col3:15 And let the peace of Christ be ruling in your hearts, as it was the purpose of God for you to be one body; and give praise to God at all times.
Col3:18 Wives, be under the authority of your husbands, as is right in the Lord.
Col3:19 Husbands, have love for your wives, and be not bitter against them.
Col3:20 Children, do the orders of your fathers and mothers in all things, for this is pleasing to the Lord.
Col3:21 Fathers, do not be hard on your children, so that their spirit may not be broken.
Col3:22 Servants, in all things do the orders of your natural masters; not only when their eyes are on you, as pleasers of men, but with all your heart, fearing the Lord:
Col3:24 Being certain that the Lord will give you the reward of the heritage: for you are the servants of the Lord Christ.
Col4:1 Masters, give your servants what is right and equal, conscious that you have a Master in heaven.
Col4:2 Give yourselves to prayer at all times, keeping watch with praise;
Col4:3 And making prayer for us, that God may give us an open door for the preaching of the word, the secret of Christ, for which I am now in chains;
Col4:5 Be wise in your behaviour to those who are outside, making good use of the time.
Col4:6 Let your talk be with grace, mixed with salt, so that you may be able to give an answer to everyone.
Col4:7 Tychicus will give you news of all my business: he is a dear brother and true servant and helper in the word;
Col4:8 And I have sent him to you for this very purpose, so that you may have news of how we are, and so that he may give your hearts comfort;
Col4:9 And with him I have sent Onesimus, the true and well-loved brother, who is one of you. They will give you word of everything which is taking place here.
Col4:10 Aristarchus, my brother-prisoner, sends his love to you, and Mark, a relation of Barnabas (about whom you have been given orders: if he comes to you, be kind to him),
Col4:11 And Jesus, whose other name is Justus; these are of the circumcision: they are my only brother-workers for the kingdom of God, who have been a comfort to me.
Col4:12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ Jesus, sends you his love, ever taking thought for you in his prayers, that you may be complete and fully certain of all the purpose of God.
Col4:13 For I give witness of him that he has undergone much trouble for you and for those in Laodicea and in Hierapolis.
Col4:14 Luke, our well-loved medical friend, and Demas, send you their love.
Col4:16 And when this letter has been made public among you, let the same be done in the church of Laodicea; and see that you have the letter from Laodicea.
Col4:18 I, Paul, give you this word of love in my handwriting. Keep in memory that I am a prisoner. Grace be with you.
1Ts1:1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace to you and peace.
1Ts1:2 We give praise to God at all times for you, keeping you in memory in our prayers;
1Ts1:3 Having ever in mind your work of faith and acts of love and the strength of your hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, before our God and Father;
1Ts1:4 Being conscious, my brothers, dear to God, that you have been marked out by God's purpose;
1Ts1:5 Because our good news came to you, not in word only, but in power, and in the Holy Spirit, so that you were completely certain of it; even as you saw what our behaviour to you was like from our love to you.
1Ts1:6 And you took us and the Lord as your example, after the word had come to you in much trouble, with joy in the Holy Spirit;
1Ts1:7 So that you became an example to all those who have faith in Christ in Macedonia and Achaia.
1Ts1:8 For not only was the word of the Lord sounding out from you in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place your faith in God is made clear; so that we have no need to say anything.
1Ts1:9 For they themselves give the news of how we came among you; and how you were turned from images to God, to the worship of a true and living God,
1Ts1:10 Waiting for his Son from heaven, who came back from the dead, even Jesus, our Saviour from the wrath to come.
1Ts2:1 For you yourselves, brothers, are conscious that our coming among you was not without effect:
1Ts2:2 But after we had first undergone much pain and been cruelly attacked as you saw, at Philippi, by the help of God we gave you the good news without fear, though everything was against us.
1Ts2:3 For our witness does not come from error or from an unclean heart or from deceit:
1Ts2:4 But even as the good news was given to us by the approval of God, so we give it out; not as pleasing men, but God by whom our hearts are tested.
1Ts2:5 For it is common knowledge among you that we never made use of smooth-sounding false words, and God is witness that at no time were we secretly desiring profit for ourselves,
1Ts2:6 Or looking for glory from men, from you or from others, when we might have made ourselves a care to you as Apostles of Christ.
1Ts2:7 But we were gentle among you, like a woman caring for her little ones:
1Ts2:8 Even so, being full of loving desire for you, we took delight in giving you not only God's good news, but even our lives, because you were dear to us.
1Ts2:9 For you have the memory, my brothers, of our trouble and care; how, working night and day, so that we might not be a trouble to any of you, we gave you the good news of God.
1Ts2:10 You are witnesses, with God, how holy and upright and free from all evil was our way of life among you who have faith;
1Ts2:11 Even as you saw how, like a father with his children, we were teaching and comforting you all, and giving witness,
1Ts2:12 So that your lives might be pleasing to God, who has given you a part in his kingdom and his glory.
1Ts2:13 And for this cause we still give praise to God, that, when the word came to your ears through us, you took it, not as the word of man, but, as it truly is, the word of God, which has living power in you who have faith.
1Ts2:14 For you, my brothers, took as your examples the churches of God which are in Judaea in Christ Jesus; because you underwent the same things from your countrymen as they did from the Jews;
1Ts2:15 Who put to death the Lord Jesus and the prophets, violently driving us out; who are unpleasing to God and against all men;
1Ts2:16 Who, to make the measure of their sins complete, kept us from giving the word of salvation to the Gentiles: but the wrath of God is about to come on them in the fullest degree.
1Ts2:17 But we, my brothers, being away from you for a short time, in body but not in heart, had all the more desire to see your face;
1Ts2:18 For which reason we made attempts to come to you, even I, Paul, once and again; but Satan kept us from coming.
1Ts2:19 For what is our hope or joy or crown of glory? Are not even you, before our Lord Jesus, at his coming?
1Ts2:20 For you are our glory and our joy.
1Ts3:1 At last our desire to have news of you was so strong that, while we ourselves were waiting at Athens,
1Ts3:2 We sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the good news of Christ, to give you strength and comfort in your faith;
1Ts3:3 So that no man might be moved by these troubles; because you see that these things are part of God's purpose for us.
1Ts3:4 And when we were with you, we said to you that trouble was before us; and so it came about, as you see.
1Ts3:5 For this reason, when I was no longer able to keep quiet, I sent to get news of your faith, fearing that you might be tested by the Evil One and that our work might come to nothing.
1Ts3:6 But now that Timothy has come to us from you, and has given us good news of your faith and love, and that you have happy memories of us, desiring greatly to see us, even as we do to see you;
1Ts3:7 For this cause, brothers, in all our trouble and grief we were comforted about you because of your faith;
1Ts3:8 For it is life to us if you keep your faith in the Lord unchanged.
1Ts3:9 For how great is the praise which we give to God for you, and how great the joy with which we are glad because of you before our God;
1Ts3:10 Night and day requesting God again and again that we may see your face and make your faith complete.
1Ts3:11 Now may our God and Father himself and our Lord Jesus make a way for us to come to you;
1Ts3:12 And the Lord give you increase of love in fullest measure to one another and to all men, even as our love to you;
1Ts3:13 So that your hearts may be strong and free from all sin before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.
1Ts4:1 And last of all, the prayer which we make to you from our heart and in the name of the Lord Jesus, is this: that as we made clear to you what sort of behaviour is pleasing to God, as in fact you are doing now, so you will go on in these ways, but more and more.
1Ts4:2 Because you have in mind the orders we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
1Ts4:3 For the purpose of God for you is this: that you may be holy, and may keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh;
1Ts4:4 So that every one of you may keep his body holy and in honour;
1Ts4:6 And that no man may make attempts to get the better of his brother in business: for the Lord is the judge in all these things, as we said to you before and gave witness.
1Ts4:7 Because it is God's purpose that our way of life may be not unclean but holy.
1Ts4:8 Whoever, then, goes against this word, goes against not man but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
1Ts4:9 But about loving the brothers, there is no need for me to say anything to you in this letter: for you have the teaching of God that love for one another is right and necessary;
1Ts4:10 And, truly, you are lovers of all the brothers in Macedonia; but it is our desire that your love may be increased still more;
1Ts4:11 And that you may take pride in being quiet and doing your business, working with your hands as we gave you orders;
1Ts4:12 That you may be respected by those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.
1Ts4:13 But it is our desire, brothers, that you may be certain about those who are sleeping; so that you may have no need for sorrow, as others have who are without hope.
1Ts4:14 For if we have faith that Jesus underwent death and came back again, even so those who are sleeping will come again with him by God's power.
1Ts4:15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are still living at the coming of the Lord, will not go before those who are sleeping.
1Ts4:17 Then we who are still living will be taken up together with them into the clouds to see the Lord in the air: and so will we be for ever with the Lord.
1Ts4:18 So then, give comfort to one another with these words.
1Ts5:1 But about the times and their order, my brothers, there is no need for me to say anything to you.
1Ts5:2 For you yourselves have the knowledge that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.
1Ts5:3 When they say, There is peace and no danger, then sudden destruction will come on them, as birth-pains on a woman with child; and they will not be able to get away from it.
1Ts5:4 But you, my brothers, are not in the dark, for that day to overtake you like a thief:
1Ts5:5 For you are all sons of light and of the day: we are not of the night or of the dark.
1Ts5:6 So then, let us not take our rest as the others do, but let us be self-controlled and awake.
1Ts5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be serious, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and on our heads, the hope of salvation.
1Ts5:9 For God's purpose for us is not wrath, but salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
1Ts5:10 Who was put to death for us, so that, awake or sleeping, we may have a part in his life.
1Ts5:11 So then, go on comforting and building up one another, as you have been doing.
1Ts5:12 But we make this request to you, my brothers: give attention to those who are working among you, who are over you in the Lord to keep order among you;
1Ts5:13 And have a high opinion of them in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.
1Ts5:14 And our desire is that you will keep control over those whose lives are not well ordered, giving comfort to the feeble-hearted, supporting those with little strength, and putting up with much from all.
1Ts5:15 Let no one give evil for evil; but ever go after what is good, for one another and for all.
1Ts5:18 In everything give praise: for this is the purpose of God in Christ Jesus for you.
1Ts5:23 And may the God of peace himself make you holy in every way; and may your spirit and soul and body be free from all sin at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1Ts5:24 God, by whom you have been marked out in his purpose, is unchanging and will make it complete.
1Ts5:25 Brothers, keep us in mind in your prayers.
1Ts5:27 I give orders in the name of the Lord that all the brothers are to be present at the reading of this letter.
1Ts5:28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
2Ts1:1 Paul and Silvanus and Timothy, to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2Ts1:2 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2Ts1:3 It is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, because of the great increase of your faith, and the wealth of your love for one another;
2Ts1:4 So that we ourselves take pride in you in the churches of God for your untroubled mind and your faith in all the troubles and sorrows which you are going through;
2Ts1:5 Which is a clear sign of the decision which God in his righteousness has made; to give you a part in his kingdom, for which you have undergone this pain;
2Ts1:6 For it is an act of righteousness on God's part to give trouble as their reward to those who are troubling you,
2Ts1:7 And to you who are troubled, rest with us, when the Lord Jesus comes from heaven with the angels of his power in flames of fire,
2Ts1:9 Whose reward will be eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his strength,
2Ts1:10 At his coming, when he will have glory in his saints, and will be a cause of wonder in all those who had faith (because our witness among you had effect) in that day.
2Ts1:11 For this reason, you are ever in our prayers, that you may seem to our God such as may have a part in his purpose and that by his power he will make all his good purpose, and the work of faith, complete;
2Ts1:12 So that glory may be given to the name of our Lord Jesus through you, and you may have glory in him, by the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2Ts2:1 Now as to the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, and our meeting with him, it is our desire, my brothers,
2Ts2:2 That you may not be moved in mind or troubled by a spirit, or by a word, or by a letter as from us, with the suggestion that the day of the Lord is even now come;
2Ts2:3 Give no belief to false words: because there will first be a falling away from the faith, and the revelation of the man of sin, the son of destruction,
2Ts2:5 Have you no memory of what I said when I was with you, giving you word of these things?
2Ts2:6 And now it is clear to you what is keeping back his revelation till the time comes for him to be seen.
2Ts2:10 And with every deceit of wrongdoing among those whose fate is destruction; because they were quite without that love of the true faith by which they might have salvation.
2Ts2:11 And for this cause, God will give them up to the power of deceit and they will put their faith in what is false:
2Ts2:13 But it is right for us to give praise to God at all times for you, brothers, loved by the Lord, because it was the purpose of God from the first that you might have salvation, being made holy by the Spirit and by faith in what is true:
2Ts2:14 And in this purpose he gave you a part through the good news of which we were the preachers, even that you might have part in the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
2Ts2:15 So then, brothers, be strong in purpose, and keep the teaching which has been given to you by word or by letter from us.
2Ts2:16 Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father who had love for us and has given us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,
2Ts2:17 Give you comfort and strength in every good work and word.
2Ts3:1 For the rest, my brothers, let there be prayer for us that the word of the Lord may go forward with increasing glory, even as it does with you;
2Ts3:2 And that we may be made free from foolish and evil men; for not all have faith.
2Ts3:3 But the Lord is true, who will give you strength and keep you safe from evil.
2Ts3:4 And we have faith in the Lord about you, that you are doing and will do the things about which we give you orders.
2Ts3:5 And may your hearts be guided by the Lord into the love of God and quiet waiting for Christ.
2Ts3:6 Now we give you orders, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to keep away from all those whose behaviour is not well ordered and in harmony with the teaching which they had from us.
2Ts3:7 For you yourselves are used to taking us as your example, because our life among you was ruled by order,
2Ts3:8 And we did not take food from any man for nothing, but were working hard night and day not to be a trouble to any of you:
2Ts3:9 Not because we have not the right, but to make ourselves an example to you, so that you might do the same.
2Ts3:10 For even when we were with you we gave you orders, saying, If any man does no work, let him not have food.
2Ts3:11 For it has come to our ears that there are some among you whose behaviour is uncontrolled, who do no work at all, but are over-interested in the business of others.
2Ts3:12 Now to such we give orders and make request in the Lord Jesus, that, working quietly, they get their living.
2Ts3:13 And you, my brothers, do not get tired of well-doing.
2Ts3:14 And if any man does not give attention to what we have said in this letter, take note of that man, and keep away from him, so that he may be shamed.
2Ts3:16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. May the Lord be with you all.
2Ts3:17 These words of love to you at the end are in my writing, Paul's writing, and this is the mark of every letter from me.
2Ts3:18 May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all.
1Ti1:1 Paul, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, by the order of God our Saviour and Christ Jesus our hope;
1Ti1:2 To Timothy, my true child in the faith: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
1Ti1:8 We are conscious that the law is good, if a man makes a right use of it,
1Ti1:12 I give praise to him who gave me power, Christ Jesus our Lord, because he took me to be true, making me his servant,
1Ti1:17 Now to the King eternal, ever-living, unseen, the only God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. So be it.
1Ti1:20 Such are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have given up to Satan, so that they may say no more evil words against God.
1Ti2:2 For kings and all those in authority; so that we may have a calm and quiet life in all fear of God and serious behaviour.
1Ti2:3 This is good and pleasing in the eyes of God our Saviour;
1Ti2:7 And of this I became a preacher and an Apostle (what I say is true, not false,) and a teacher of the Gentiles in the true faith.
1Ti3:10 And let these first be put to the test; then let them become Deacons if there is nothing against them.
1Ti4:3 Who keep men from being married and from taking food which God made to be taken with praise by those who have faith and true knowledge.
1Ti4:6 If you keep these things before the minds of the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, trained in the words of the faith and of the right teaching which has been your guide:
1Ti4:10 And this is the purpose of all our work and our fighting, because our hope is in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, and specially of those who have faith.
1Ti5:4 But if any widow has children or children's children, let these see that it is right to take care of their family and their fathers and mothers: for this is pleasing in the eyes of God.
1Ti5:7 Give orders to this effect, so that no evil may be said of anyone.
1Ti5:11 But to the younger widows say No: for when their love is turned away from Christ, they have a desire to be married;
1Ti5:12 And they are judged because they have been false to their first faith;
1Ti5:13 And they get into the way of doing no work, going about from house to house; and not only doing no work, but talking foolishly, being over-interested in the business of others, saying things which they have no right to say.
1Ti5:16 If any woman of the faith has relations who are widows, let her give them help, so that the care of them does not come on the church, and so it may give help to those who are truly widowed.
1Ti6:3 If any man gives different teaching, not in agreement with the true words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and with the teaching which is in agreement with true religion,
1Ti6:5 Bitter talk of men who, being evil in mind and dead to what is true, take the faith to be a way of making profit.
1Ti6:7 For we came into the world with nothing, and we are not able to take anything out;
1Ti6:14 To keep the word untouched by evil, clear from all shame, till the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ:
1Ti6:16 Who only has life for ever, living in light to which no man may come near; whom no man has seen or is able to see: to whom be honour and power for ever. So be it.
1Ti6:17 Give orders to those who have money and goods in this life, not to be lifted up in their minds, or to put their hope in the uncertain chances of wealth, but in God who gives us in full measure all things for our use;
1Ti6:18 And to do good, having wealth in good works, being quick to give, taking part with one another;
1Ti6:19 Making ready for themselves a safe place for the time to come, so that the true life may be theirs.
1Ti6:21 Through which some, who gave their minds to it, have been turned away from the faith. Grace be with you.
2Ti1:2 To Timothy, my well-loved child: Grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.
2Ti1:7 For God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of self-control.
2Ti1:8 Have no feeling of shame, then, for the witness of our Lord or for me, his prisoner: but undergo all things for the good news in the measure of the power of God;
2Ti1:9 Who gave us salvation, marking us out for his purpose, not on account of our works, but in the measure of his purpose and his grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before times eternal,
2Ti1:10 But has now been made clear by the revelation of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who put an end to death and made life unending come to light through the good news,
2Ti1:14 That good thing which was given to you keep safe, through the Holy Spirit which is in us.
2Ti2:10 But I undergo all things for the saints, so that they may have salvation in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
2Ti2:11 This is a true saying: If we undergo death with him, then will we be living with him:
2Ti2:12 If we go on to the end, then we will be ruling with him: if we say we have no knowledge of him, then he will say he has no knowledge of us:
2Ti2:13 If we are without faith, still he keeps faith, for he will never be untrue to himself.
2Ti2:14 Put these things before them, giving them orders in the name of the Lord to keep themselves from fighting about words, which is of no profit, only causing error in their hearers.
2Ti2:17 And their words will be like poisoned wounds in the flesh: such are Hymenaeus and Philetus;
2Ti2:18 Men whose ideas are all false, who say that the coming back from the dead has even now taken place, overturning the faith of some.
2Ti2:25 Gently guiding those who go against the teaching; if by chance God may give them a change of heart and true knowledge,
2Ti2:26 And so they may get themselves free from the net of the Evil One, being made the prisoners of the Lord's servant, for the purpose of God.
2Ti3:8 And as James and Jambres went against Moses, so do these go against what is true: men of evil minds, who, tested by faith, are seen to be false.
2Ti3:9 But they will go no farther: for their foolish behaviour will be clear to all men, as theirs was in the end.
2Ti4:15 But be on the watch for him, for he was violent in his attacks on our teaching.
2Ti4:16 At my first meeting with my judges, no one took my part, but all went away from me. May it not be put to their account.
2Ti4:18 The Lord will keep me safe from every evil work and will give me salvation in his kingdom in heaven: to whom be glory for ever and ever. So be it.
2Ti4:22 The Lord be with your spirit. Grace be with you.
Tit1:3 Who, in his time, made clear his word in the good news, of which, by the order of God our Saviour, I became a preacher;
Tit1:4 To Titus, my true child in our common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Saviour.
Tit1:6 Men having a good record, husbands of one wife, whose children are of the faith, children of whom it may not be said that they are given to loose living or are uncontrolled.
Tit1:11 By whom some families have been completely overturned; who take money for teaching things which are not right; these will have to be stopped.
Tit1:13 This witness is true. So say sharp words to them so that they may come to the right faith,
Tit1:16 They say that they have knowledge of God, while by their acts they are turning their backs on him; they are hated by all, hard-hearted, and judged to be without value for any good work.
Tit2:8 Saying true and right words, against which no protest may be made, so that he who is not on our side may be put to shame, unable to say any evil of us.
Tit2:10 Not taking what is not theirs, but giving clear signs of their good faith, in all things doing credit to the teaching of God our Saviour.
Tit2:12 Training us so that, turning away from evil and the desires of this world, we may be living wisely and uprightly in the knowledge of God in this present life;
Tit2:13 Looking for the glad hope, the revelation of the glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ;
Tit2:14 Who gave himself for us, so that he might make us free from all wrongdoing, and make for himself a people clean in heart and on fire with good works.
Tit3:1 Make clear to them that they are to put themselves under rulers and authorities, to do what they are ordered, to be ready for every good work,
Tit3:3 For in the past we were foolish, hard in heart, turned from the true way, servants of evil desires and pleasures, living in bad feeling and envy, hated and hating one another.
Tit3:4 But when the mercy of God our Saviour, and his love to man was seen,
Tit3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we did ourselves, but in the measure of his mercy, he gave us salvation, through the washing of the new birth and the giving of new life in the Holy Spirit,
Tit3:6 Which he gave us freely through Jesus Christ our Saviour;
Tit3:7 So that, having been given righteousness through grace, we might have a part in the heritage, the hope of eternal life.
Tit3:13 Send Zenas, the man of law, and Apollos on their journey with all care, so that they may be in need of nothing.
Tit3:14 And let our people go on with good works for necessary purposes, so that they may not be without fruit.
Tit3:15 All who are with me send you their love. Give our love to our friends in the faith. Grace be with you all.
Phm1:1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, to Philemon, our dear helper in the faith,
Phm1:2 And to Apphia, our sister, and to Archippus, our brother in God's army, and to the church in your house:
Phm1:3 Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Phm1:6 That the faith which you have in common with them may be working with power, in the knowledge of every good thing in you, for Christ.
Phm1:22 And make a room ready for me; for I am hoping that through your prayers I will be given to you.
Phm1:25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit. So be it.
Heb1:2 But now, at the end of these days, it has come to us through his Son, to whom he has given all things for a heritage, and through whom he made the order of the generations;
Heb2:1 For this reason there is the more need for us to give attention to the things which have come to our ears, for fear that by chance we might be slipping away.
Heb2:3 What will come on us, if we do not give our minds to such a great salvation? a salvation of which our fathers first had knowledge through the words of the Lord, and which was made certain to us by those to whom his words came;
Heb2:4 And God was a witness with them, by signs and wonders, and by more than natural powers, and by his distribution of the Holy Spirit at his pleasure.
Heb2:5 For he did not make the angels rulers over the world to come, of which I am writing.
Heb2:8 You put all things under his feet. For in making man the ruler over all things, God did not put anything outside his authority; though we do not see everything under him now.
Heb2:10 Because it was right for him, for whom and through whom all things have being, in guiding his sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation complete through pain.
Heb2:11 For he who makes holy and those who are made holy are all of one family; and for this reason it is no shame for him to give them the name of brothers,
Heb3:1 For this reason, holy brothers, marked out to have a part in heaven, give thought to Jesus the representative and high priest of our faith;
Heb3:6 But Christ as a son, over his house; whose house are we, if we keep our hearts fixed in the glad and certain hope till the end.
Heb3:7 And so, as the Holy Spirit says, Today if you let his voice come to your ears,
Heb3:9 When your fathers put me to the test, and saw my works for forty years.
Heb3:10 So that I was angry with this generation, and I said, Their hearts are in error at all times, and they have no knowledge of my ways;
Heb3:11 And being angry I made an oath, saying, They may not come into my rest.
Heb3:12 My brothers, take care that there is not by chance in any one of you an evil heart without belief, turning away from the living God:
Heb3:13 But give comfort to one another every day as long as it is still Today; so that no one among you may be made hard by the deceit of sin:
Heb3:14 For if we keep the substance of the faith which we had at the start, even till the end, we have a part with Christ;
Heb3:15 As it is said, Today if you will let his voice come to your ears, be not hard of heart, as when you made him angry.
Heb3:18 And to whom did he make an oath that they might not come into his rest? was it not to those who went against his orders?
Heb3:19 So we see that they were not able to go in because they had no belief.
Heb4:1 Let us then, though we still have God's word that we may come into his rest, go in fear that some of you may be unable to do so.
Heb4:2 And, truly, the good news came to us, even as it did to them; but the hearing of the word did them no good, because they were not united in faith with the true hearers.
Heb4:3 For those of us who have belief come into his rest; even as he has said, As I said in my oath when I was angry, They may not come into my rest: though the works were done from the time of the making of the world.
Heb4:5 And in the same place he says again, They will not come into my rest.
Heb4:7 After a long time, again naming a certain day, he says in David, Today (as he had said before), Today if you will let his voice come to your ears, be not hard of heart,
Heb4:8 For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have said anything about another day.
Heb4:11 Because of this, let us have a strong desire to come into that rest, and let no one go after the example of those who went against God's orders.
Heb4:13 And there is nothing made which is not completely clear to him; there is nothing covered, but all things are open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Heb4:14 Having then a great high priest, who has made his way through the heavens, even Jesus the Son of God, let us be strong in our faith.
Heb4:15 For we have not a high priest who is not able to be touched by the feelings of our feeble flesh; but we have one who has been tested in all points as we ourselves are tested, but without sin.
Heb4:16 Then let us come near to the seat of grace without fear, so that mercy may be given to us, and we may get grace for our help in time of need.
Heb5:11 Of whom we have much to say which it is hard to make clear, because you are slow of hearing.
Heb5:12 And though by this time it would be right for you to be teachers, you still have need of someone to give you teaching about the first simple rules of God's revelation; you have become like babies who have need of milk, and not of solid food.
Heb5:14 But solid food is for men of full growth, even for those whose senses are trained by use to see what is good and what is evil.
Heb6:1 For this reason let us go on from the first things about Christ to full growth; not building again that on which it is based, that is, the turning of the heart from dead works, and faith in God,
Heb6:3 Now we will do this, if God lets us.
Heb6:6 And then let themselves be turned away, it is not possible for their hearts to be made new a second time; because they themselves put the Son of God on the cross again, openly shaming him.
Heb6:9 But, my loved ones, though we say this, we are certain that you have better things in you, things which go with salvation;
Heb6:10 For God is true, and will not put away from him the memory of your work and of your love for his name, in the help which you gave and still give to the saints.
Heb6:11 And it is our desire that you may all keep the same high purpose in certain hope to the end:
Heb6:18 So that we, who have gone in flight from danger to the hope which has been put before us, may have a strong comfort in two unchanging things, in which it is not possible for God to be false;
Heb6:19 And this hope is like a strong band for our souls, fixed and certain, and going in to that which is inside the veil;
Heb6:20 Where Jesus has gone before us, as a high priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.
Heb7:4 Now see how great this man was, to whom our father Abraham gave a tenth part of what he had got in the fight.
Heb7:6 But this man, who was not of their family, took the tenth from Abraham, and gave a blessing to him to whom God had given his undertaking.
Heb7:14 Because it is clear that our Lord comes out of Judah, and Moses said nothing about priests from that tribe.
Heb7:19 (Because the law made nothing complete), and in its place there is a better hope, through which we come near to God.
Heb7:25 So that he is fully able to be the saviour of all who come to God through him, because he is ever living to make prayer to God for them.
Heb7:26 It was right for us to have such a high priest, one who is holy and without evil, doing no wrong, having no part with sinners, and made higher than the heavens:
Heb8:1 Now of the things we are saying this is the chief point: We have such a high priest, who has taken his place at the right hand of God's high seat of glory in heaven,
Heb8:5 Being servants of that which is a copy and an image of the things in heaven, as Moses, when he was about to make the Tent, had special orders from God: for, See, he said, that you make everything like the design which you saw in the mountain.
Heb8:9 Not like the agreement which I made with their fathers when I took them by the hand, to be their guide out of the land of Egypt; for they did not keep the agreement with me, and I gave them up, says the Lord.
Heb8:10 For this is the agreement which I will make with the people of Israel after those days: I will put my laws into their minds, writing them in their hearts: and I will be their God, and they will be my people:
Heb8:11 And there will be no need for every man to be teaching his brother, or his neighbour, saying, This is the knowledge of the Lord: for they will all have knowledge of me, great and small.
Heb8:12 And I will have mercy on their evil-doing, and I will not keep their sins in mind.
Heb9:14 How much more will the blood of Christ, who, being without sin, made an offering of himself to God through the Holy Spirit, make your hearts clean from dead works to be servants of the living God?
Heb9:20 Saying, This blood is the sign of the agreement which God has made with you.
Heb9:24 For Christ did not go into a holy place which had been made by men's hands as the copy of the true one; but he went into heaven itself, and now takes his place before the face of God for us.
Heb9:28 So Christ, having at his first coming taken on himself the sins of men, will be seen a second time, without sin, by those who are waiting for him, for their salvation.
Heb10:10 By that pleasure we have been made holy, by the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once and for ever.
Heb10:15 And the Holy Spirit is a witness for us: for after he had said,
Heb10:16 This is the agreement which I will make with them after those days, says the Lord; I will put my laws in their hearts, writing them in their minds; he said,
Heb10:17 And I will keep no more memory of their sins and of their evil-doings.
Heb10:19 So then, my brothers, being able to go into the holy place without fear, because of the blood of Jesus,
Heb10:20 By the new and living way which he made open for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
Heb10:22 Let us go in with true hearts, in certain faith, having our hearts made free from the sense of sin and our bodies washed with clean water:
Heb10:23 Let us keep the witness of our hope strong and unshaking, for he is true who has given his word:
Heb10:25 Not giving up our meetings, as is the way of some, but keeping one another strong in faith; and all the more because you see the day coming near.
Heb10:26 For if we do evil on purpose after we have had the knowledge of what is true, there is no more offering for sins,
Heb10:29 But will not the man by whom the Son of God has been crushed under foot, and the blood of the agreement with which he was washed clean has been taken as an unholy thing, and who has had no respect for the Spirit of grace, be judged bad enough for a very much worse punishment?
Heb10:30 For we have had experience of him who says, Punishment is mine, I will give reward. And again, The Lord will be judge of his people.
Heb10:32 But give thought to the days after you had seen the light, when you went through a great war of troubles;
Heb10:34 For you had pity on those who were in prison, and had joy in the loss of your property, in the knowledge that you still had a better property and one which you would keep for ever.
Heb10:35 So do not give up your hope which will be greatly rewarded.
Heb10:36 For, having done what was right in God's eyes, you have need of waiting before his word has effect for you.
Heb10:39 But we are not of those who go back to destruction; but of those who have faith even to the salvation of the soul.
Heb11:3 By faith it is clear to us that the order of events was fixed by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made from things which only seem to be.
Heb11:15 And truly if they had kept in mind the country from which they went out, they would have had chances of turning back.
Heb11:16 But now their desire is for a better country, that is to say, for one in heaven; and so it is no shame to God to be named their God; for he has made ready a town for them.
Heb11:29 By faith they went through the Red Sea as if it had been dry land, though the Egyptians were overcome by the water when they made an attempt to do the same.
Heb11:33 Who through faith overcame kingdoms, did righteousness, got their reward, kept the mouths of lions shut,
Heb11:40 Because God had kept some better thing for us, so that it was not possible for them to become complete without us.
Heb12:1 For this reason, as we are circled by so great a cloud of witnesses, putting off every weight, and the sin into which we come so readily, let us keep on running in the way which is marked out for us,
Heb12:2 Having our eyes fixed on Jesus, the guide and end of our faith, who went through the pains of the cross, not caring for the shame, because of the joy which was before him, and who has now taken his place at the right hand of God's seat of power.
Heb12:3 Give thought to him who has undergone so much of the hate of sinners against himself, so that you may not be tired and feeble of purpose.
Heb12:4 Till now you have not given your blood in your fight against sin:
Heb12:5 And you have not kept in mind the word which says to you as to sons, My son, do not make little of the Lord's punishment, and do not give up hope when you are judged by him;
Heb12:7 It is for your training that you undergo these things; God is acting to you as a father does to his sons; for what son does not have punishment from his father?
Heb12:8 But if you have not that punishment of which we all have our part, then you are not true sons, but children of shame.
Heb12:9 And again, if the fathers of our flesh gave us punishment and had our respect, how much more will we be under the authority of the Father of spirits, and have life?
Heb12:10 For they truly gave us punishment for a short time, as it seemed good to them; but he does it for our profit, so that we may become holy as he is.
Heb12:12 For this cause let the hands which are hanging down be lifted up, and let the feeble knees be made strong,
Heb12:14 Let your desire be for peace with all men, and to be made holy, without which no man may see the Lord;
Heb12:15 Looking with care to see that no man among you in his behaviour comes short of the grace of God; for fear that some bitter root may come up to be a trouble to you, and that some of you may be made unclean by it;
Heb12:17 For you have knowledge that even long after, when he was desiring the blessing for his heritage, he was turned away, though he made his request frequently and with weeping; because the past might not be changed.
Heb12:18 You have not come to a mountain which may be touched, and is burning with fire, and to a black cloud, and a dark smoke, and a violent wind,
Heb12:19 And to the sound of a horn, and the voice of words, the hearers of which made request that not a word more might be said to them:
Heb12:20 For the order which said, If the mountain is touched even by a beast, the beast is to be stoned, seemed hard to them;
Heb12:22 But you have come to the mountain of Zion, to the place of the living God, to the Jerusalem which is in heaven, and to an army of angels which may not be numbered,
Heb12:25 See that you give ear to his voice which comes to you. For if those whose ears were shut to the voice which came to them on earth did not go free from punishment, what chance have we of going free if we give no attention to him whose voice comes from heaven?
Heb12:28 If then, we have a kingdom which will never be moved, let us have grace, so that we may give God such worship as is pleasing to him with fear and respect:
Heb12:29 For our God is an all-burning fire.
Heb13:1 Go on loving your brothers in the faith.
Heb13:3 Keep in mind those who are in chains, as if you were chained with them, and those who are in trouble, as being yourselves in the body.
Heb13:5 Be free from the love of money and pleased with the things which you have; for he himself has said, I will be with you at all times.
Heb13:6 So that we say with a good heart, The Lord is my helper; I will have no fear: what is man able to do to me?
Heb13:7 Keep in mind those who were over you, and who gave you the word of God; seeing the outcome of their way of life, let your faith be like theirs.
Heb13:9 Do not be turned away by different strange teachings, because it is good for your hearts to be made strong by grace, and not by meats, which were of no profit to those who took so much trouble over them.
Heb13:10 We have an altar from which those priests who are servants in the Tent may not take food.
Heb13:13 Let us then go out to him outside the circle of the tents, taking his shame on ourselves.
Heb13:14 For here we have no fixed resting-place, but our search is for the one which is to come.
Heb13:15 Let us then make offerings of praise to God at all times through him, that is to say, the fruit of lips giving witness to his name.
Heb13:17 Give ear to those who are rulers over you, and do as they say: for they keep watch over your souls, ready to give an account of them; let them be able to do this with joy and not with grief, because that would be of no profit to you.
Heb13:18 Make prayers for us, for we are certain that our hearts are free from the sense of sin, desiring the right way of life in all things.
Heb13:19 I make this request more strongly, in the hope of coming back to you more quickly.
Heb13:21 Make you full of every good work and ready to do all his desires, working in us whatever is pleasing in his eyes through Jesus Christ; and may the glory be given to him for ever and ever. So be it.
Heb13:22 But, brothers, take kindly the words which I have said for your profit; for I have not sent you a long letter.
Heb13:23 Our brother Timothy has been let out of prison; and if he comes here in a short time, he and I will come to you together.
Heb13:24 Give words of love from me to those who are rulers over you, and to all the saints. Those who are in Italy send you their love.
Heb13:25 May grace be with you all.
Jas1:2 Let it be all joy to you, my brothers, when you undergo tests of every sort;
Jas1:3 Because you have the knowledge that the testing of your faith gives you the power of going on in hope;
Jas1:4 But let this power have its full effect, so that you may be made complete, needing nothing.
Jas1:5 But if any man among you is without wisdom, let him make his request to God, who gives freely to all without an unkind word, and it will be given to him.
Jas1:16 Do not be turned from the right way, dear brothers.
Jas1:18 Of his purpose he gave us being, by his true word, so that we might be, in a sense, the first-fruits of all the things which he had made.
Jas1:19 You have knowledge of this, dear brothers. But let every man be quick in hearing, slow in words, slow to get angry;
Jas1:21 For this reason, putting away all dirty behaviour and the overweight of evil, take into your souls without pride the word which, being planted there, is able to give you salvation.
Jas1:22 But be doers of the word, and not only hearers of it, blinding yourselves with false ideas.
Jas1:27 The religion which is holy and free from evil in the eyes of our God and Father is this: to take care of children who have no fathers and of widows who are in trouble, and to keep oneself untouched by the world.
Jas2:1 My brothers, if you have the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory, do not take a man's position into account.
Jas2:2 For if a man comes into your Synagogue in fair clothing and with a gold ring, and a poor man comes in with dirty clothing,
Jas2:3 And you do honour to the man in fair clothing and say, Come here and take this good place; and you say to the poor man, Take up your position there, or be seated at my feet;
Jas2:4 Is there not a division in your minds? have you not become judges with evil thoughts?
Jas2:5 Give ear, my dear brothers; are not those who are poor in the things of this world marked out by God to have faith as their wealth, and for their heritage the kingdom which he has said he will give to those who have love for him?
Jas2:6 But you have put the poor man to shame. Are not the men of wealth rulers over you? do they not take you by force before their judges?
Jas2:7 Do they not say evil of the holy name which was given to you?
Jas2:8 But if you keep the greatest law of all, as it is given in the holy Writings, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself, you do well:
Jas2:9 But if you take a man's position into account, you do evil, and are judged as evil-doers by the law.
Jas2:12 Let your words and your acts be those of men who are to be judged by the law which makes free.
Jas2:14 What use is it, my brothers, for a man to say that he has faith, if he does nothing? will such a faith give him salvation?
Jas2:16 And one of you says to them, Go in peace, be warm and full of food; but you do not give them the things of which their bodies have need, what profit is there in this?
Jas2:21 Was not the righteousness of Abraham our father judged by his works, when he made an offering of Isaac his son on the altar?
Jas2:25 And in the same way, was not the righteousness of Rahab, the loose woman, judged by her works, when she took into her house those who were sent and let them go out by another way?
Jas3:1 Do not all be teachers, my brothers, because we teachers will be judged more hardly than others.
Jas3:2 For we all go wrong in a number of things. If a man never makes a slip in his talk, then he is a complete man and able to keep all his body in control.
Jas3:3 Now if we put bits of iron into horses' mouths so that they may be guided by us, we have complete control of their bodies.
Jas3:6 And the tongue is a fire; it is the power of evil placed in our bodies, making all the body unclean, putting the wheel of life on fire, and getting its fire from hell.
Jas3:9 With it we give praise to our Lord and Father; and with it we put a curse on men who are made in God's image.
Jas3:10 Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My brothers, it is not right for these things to be so.
Jas3:12 Is a fig-tree able to give us olives, my brothers, or do we get figs from a vine, or sweet water from the salt sea?
Jas3:13 Who has wisdom and good sense among you? let him make his works clear by a life of gentle wisdom.
Jas3:14 But if you have bitter envy in your heart and the desire to get the better of others, have no pride in this, talking falsely against what is true.
Jas4:1 What is the cause of wars and fighting among you? is it not in your desires which are at war in your bodies?
Jas4:2 You are burning with desire, and have not your desire, so you put men to death; you are full of envy, and you are not able to get your desire, so you are fighting and making war; you have not your desire, because you do not make request for it.
Jas4:3 You make your request but you do not get it, because your request has been wrongly made, desiring the thing only so that you may make use of it for your pleasure.
Jas4:4 O you who are false to God, do you not see that the friends of this world are not God's friends? Every man desiring to be a friend of this world makes himself a hater of God.
Jas4:5 Or does it seem to you that it is for nothing that the holy Writings say, The spirit which God put into our hearts has a strong desire for us?
Jas4:7 For this cause be ruled by God; but make war on the Evil One and he will be put to flight before you.
Jas4:8 Come near to God and he will come near to you. Make your hands clean, you evil-doers; put away deceit from your hearts, you false in mind.
Jas4:9 Be troubled, with sorrow and weeping; let your laughing be turned to sorrow and your joy to grief.
Jas4:10 Make yourselves low in the eyes of the Lord and you will be lifted up by him.
Jas4:11 Do not say evil against one another, my brothers. He who says evil against his brother or makes himself his brother's judge, says evil against the law and is judging the law: and in judging the law you become, not a doer of the law but a judge.
Jas4:13 How foolish it is to say, Today or tomorrow we will go into this town, and be there for a year and do business there and get wealth:
Jas4:14 When you are not certain what will take place tomorrow. What is your life? It is a mist, which is seen for a little time and then is gone.
Jas4:15 But the right thing to say would be, If it is the Lord's pleasure and if we are still living, we will do this and that.
Jas4:16 But now you go on glorying in your pride: and all such glorying is evil.
Jas5:1 Come now, you men of wealth, give yourselves to weeping and crying because of the bitter troubles which are coming to you.
Jas5:2 Your wealth is unclean and insects have made holes in your clothing.
Jas5:3 Your gold and your silver are wasted and their waste will be a witness against you, burning into your flesh. You have put by your store in the last days.
Jas5:4 See, the money which you falsely kept back from the workers cutting the grass in your field, is crying out against you; and the cries of those who took in your grain have come to the ears of the Lord of armies.
Jas5:5 You have been living delicately on earth and have taken your pleasure; you have made your hearts fat for a day of destruction.
Jas5:6 You have given your decision against the upright man and have put him to death. He puts up no fight against you.
Jas5:7 Go on waiting calmly, my brothers, till the coming of the Lord, like the farmer waiting for the good fruit of the earth till the early and late rains have come.
Jas5:8 Be as calm in your waiting; let your hearts be strong: because the coming of the Lord is near.
Jas5:9 Say no hard things against one another, brothers, so that you will not be judged; see, the judge is waiting at the doors.
Jas5:10 Take as an example of pain nobly undergone and of strength in trouble, the prophets who gave to men the words of the Lord.
Jas5:11 We say that those men who have gone through pain are happy: you have the story of Job and the troubles through which he went and have seen that the Lord was full of pity and mercy in the end.
Jas5:12 But most of all, my brothers, do not take oaths, not by the heaven, or by the earth, or by any other thing: but let your Yes be Yes, and your No be No: so that you may not be judged.
Jas5:13 Is anyone among you in trouble? let him say prayers. Is anyone glad? let him make a song of praise.
Jas5:14 Is anyone among you ill? let him send for the rulers of the church; and let them say prayers over him, putting oil on him in the name of the Lord.
Jas5:16 So then, make a statement of your sins to one another, and say prayers for one another so that you may be made well. The prayer of a good man is full of power in its working.
Jas5:17 Elijah was a man of flesh and blood as we are, and he made a strong prayer that there might be no rain; and there was no rain on the earth for three years and six months.
Jas5:19 My brothers, if one of you has gone out of the way of the true faith and another has made him see his error,
1Pe1:2 Who, through the purpose of God, have been made holy by the Spirit, disciples of Jesus, made clean by his blood: May you have grace and peace in full measure.
1Pe1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who through his great mercy has given us a new birth and a living hope by the coming again of Jesus Christ from the dead,
1Pe1:4 And a heritage fair, holy and for ever new, waiting in heaven for you,
1Pe1:5 Who, by the power of God are kept, through faith, for that salvation, which will be seen at the last day.
1Pe1:6 You have cause for great joy in this, though it may have been necessary for you to be troubled for a little time, being tested in all sorts of ways,
1Pe1:7 So that the true metal of your faith, being of much greater value than gold (which, though it comes to an end, is tested by fire), may come to light in praise and glory and honour, at the revelation of Jesus Christ:
1Pe1:8 To whom your love is given, though you have not seen him; and the faith which you have in him, though you do not see him now, gives you joy greater than words and full of glory:
1Pe1:9 For so you have the true end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
1Pe1:10 For the prophets who gave the news of the grace which would come to you, made search with all care for knowledge of this salvation;
1Pe1:11 Attempting to see what sort of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them was pointing to, when it gave witness to the pains which Christ would undergo and the glories which would come after them.
1Pe1:12 And it was made clear to those prophets that they were God's servants not for themselves but for you, to give you word of the things which have now come to your ears from the preachers of the good news through the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven; things which even angels have a desire to see.
1Pe1:13 So make your minds ready, and keep on the watch, hoping with all your power for the grace which is to come to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
1Pe1:14 Like children ruled by God, do not go back to the old desires of the time when you were without knowledge:
1Pe1:15 But be holy in every detail of your lives, as he, whose servants you are, is holy;
1Pe1:16 Because it has been said in the Writings, You are to be holy, for I am holy.
1Pe1:17 And if you give the name of Father to him who, judging every man by his acts, has no respect for a man's position, then go in fear while you are on this earth:
1Pe1:18 Being conscious that you have been made free from that foolish way of life which was your heritage from your fathers, not through a payment of things like silver or gold which come to destruction,
1Pe1:20 Who was marked out by God before the making of the world, but was caused to be seen in these last times for you,
1Pe1:21 Who through him have faith in God who took him up again from the dead into glory; so that your faith and hope might be in God.
1Pe1:22 And as you have made your souls clean, being ruled by what is true, and loving one another without deceit, see that your love is warm and from the heart:
1Pe1:23 Because you have had a new birth, not from the seed of man, but from eternal seed, through the word of a living and unchanging God.
1Pe1:25 But the word of the Lord is eternal. And this is the word of the good news which was given to you.
1Pe2:1 So putting away all wrongdoing, and all tricks and deceits and envies and evil talk,
1Pe2:2 Be full of desire for the true milk of the word, as babies at their mothers' breasts, so that you may go on to salvation;
1Pe2:3 If you have had a taste of the grace of the Lord:
1Pe2:5 You, as living stones, are being made into a house of the spirit, a holy order of priests, making those offerings of the spirit which are pleasing to God through Jesus Christ.
1Pe2:7 And the value is for you who have faith; but it is said for those without faith, The very stone which the builders put on one side, was made the chief stone of the building;
1Pe2:8 And, A stone of falling, a rock of trouble; the word is the cause of their fall, because they go against it, and this was the purpose of God.
1Pe2:9 But you are a special people, a holy nation, priests and kings, a people given up completely to God, so that you may make clear the virtues of him who took you out of the dark into the light of heaven.
1Pe2:10 In the past you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; then there was no mercy for you, but now mercy has been given to you.
1Pe2:11 My loved ones, I make this request with all my heart, that, as those for whom this world is a strange country, you will keep yourselves from the desires of the flesh which make war against the soul;
1Pe2:12 Being of good behaviour among the Gentiles; so that though they say now that you are evil-doers, they may see your good works and give glory to God when he comes to be their judge.
1Pe2:13 Keep all the laws of men because of the Lord; those of the king, who is over all,
1Pe2:15 Because it is God's pleasure that foolish and narrow-minded men may be put to shame by your good behaviour:
1Pe2:16 As those who are free, not using your free position as a cover for wrongdoing, but living as the servants of God;
1Pe2:18 Servants, take orders from your masters with all respect; not only if they are good and gentle, but even if they are bad-humoured.
1Pe2:20 What credit is it if, when you have done evil, you take your punishment quietly? but if you are given punishment for doing right, and take it quietly, this is pleasing to God.
1Pe2:21 This is God's purpose for you: because Jesus himself underwent punishment for you, giving you an example, so that you might go in his footsteps:
1Pe2:24 He took our sins on himself, giving his body to be nailed on the tree, so that we, being dead to sin, might have a new life in righteousness, and by his wounds we have been made well.
1Pe2:25 Because, like sheep, you had gone out of the way; but now you have come back to him who keeps watch over your souls.
1Pe3:1 Wives, be ruled by your husbands; so that even if some of them give no attention to the word, their hearts may be changed by the behaviour of their wives,
1Pe3:2 When they see your holy behaviour in the fear of God.
1Pe3:3 Do not let your ornaments be those of the body such as dressing of the hair, or putting on of jewels of gold or fair clothing;
1Pe3:6 As Sarah was ruled by Abraham, naming him lord; whose children you are if you do well, and are not put in fear by any danger.
1Pe3:7 And you husbands, give thought to your way of life with your wives, giving honour to the woman who is the feebler vessel, but who has an equal part in the heritage of the grace of life; so that you may not be kept from prayer.
1Pe3:8 Last of all, see that you are all in agreement; feeling for one another, loving one another like brothers, full of pity, without pride:
1Pe3:9 Not giving back evil for evil, or curse for curse, but in place of cursing, blessing; because this is the purpose of God for you that you may have a heritage of blessing.
1Pe3:12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the upright, and his ears are open to their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.
1Pe3:13 Who will do you any damage if you keep your minds fixed on what is good?
1Pe3:14 But you are happy if you undergo pain because of righteousness; have no part in their fear and do not be troubled;
1Pe3:15 But give honour to Christ in your hearts as your Lord; and be ready at any time when you are questioned about the hope which is in you, to give an answer in the fear of the Lord and without pride;
1Pe3:16 Being conscious that you have done no wrong; so that those who say evil things about your good way of life as Christians may be put to shame.
1Pe3:17 Because if it is God's purpose for you to undergo pain, it is better to do so for well-doing than for evil-doing.
1Pe3:18 Because Christ once went through pain for sins, the upright one taking the place of sinners, so that through him we might come back to God; being put to death in the flesh, but given life in the Spirit;
1Pe3:21 And baptism, of which this is an image, now gives you salvation, not by washing clean the flesh, but by making you free from the sense of sin before God, through the coming again of Jesus Christ from the dead;
1Pe4:1 So that as Jesus was put to death in the flesh, do you yourselves be of the same mind; for the death of the flesh puts an end to sin;
1Pe4:2 So that you may give the rest of your lives in the flesh, not to the desires of men, but to the purpose of God.
1Pe4:4 And they are wondering that you no longer go with them in this violent wasting of life, and are saying evil things of you:
1Pe4:5 But they will have to give an account of themselves to him who is ready to be the judge of the living and the dead.
1Pe4:6 For this was the reason why the good news of Jesus was given even to the dead, so that they might be judged as men in the flesh, but might be living before God in the spirit.
1Pe4:7 But the end of all things is near: so be serious in your behaviour and keep on the watch with prayer;
1Pe4:9 Keep open house for all with a glad heart;
1Pe4:11 If anyone has anything to say, let it be as the words of God; if anyone has the desire to be the servant of others, let him do it in the strength which is given by God; so that in all things God may have the glory through Jesus Christ, whose are the glory and the power for ever.
1Pe4:12 Dear brothers, do not be surprised, as if it was something strange, if your faith is tested as by fire:
1Pe4:13 But be glad that you are given a part in the pains of Christ; so that at the revelation of his glory you may have great joy.
1Pe4:14 If men say evil things of you because of the name of Christ, happy are you; for the Spirit of glory and of God is resting on you.
1Pe4:15 Let no one among you undergo punishment as a taker of life, or as a thief, or as an evil-doer, or as one who is over-interested in other men's business;
1Pe4:17 For the time has come for the judging, starting with the church of God; but if it makes a start with us, what will be the end of those who are not under the rule of God?
1Pe5:1 I who am myself one of the rulers of the church, and a witness of the death of Christ, having my part in the coming glory, send this serious request to the chief men among you:
1Pe5:2 Keep watch over the flock of God which is in your care, using your authority, not as forced to do so, but gladly; and not for unclean profit but with a ready mind;
1Pe5:3 Not as lords over God's heritage, but making yourselves examples to the flock.
1Pe5:4 And at the coming of the chief Keeper of the sheep, you will be given the eternal crown of glory.
1Pe5:5 And in the same way, let the younger men be ruled by the older ones. Let all of you put away pride and make yourselves ready to be servants: for God is a hater of pride, but he gives grace to those who make themselves low.
1Pe5:6 For this cause make yourselves low under the strong hand of God, so that when the time comes you may be lifted up;
1Pe5:7 Putting all your troubles on him, for he takes care of you.
1Pe5:8 Be serious and keep watch; the Evil One, who is against you, goes about like a lion with open mouth in search of food;
1Pe5:9 Do not give way to him but be strong in your faith, in the knowledge that your brothers who are in the world undergo the same troubles.
1Pe5:10 And after you have undergone pain for a little time, the God of all grace who has given you a part in his eternal glory through Christ Jesus, will himself give you strength and support, and make you complete in every good thing;
1Pe5:11 His is the power for ever. So be it.
1Pe5:12 I have sent you this short letter by Silvanus, a true brother, in my opinion; comforting you and witnessing that this is the true grace of God; keep to it.
1Pe5:13 She who is in Babylon, who has a part with you in the purpose of God, sends you her love; and so does my son Mark.
1Pe5:14 Give one another the kiss of love. Peace be to you all in Christ.
2Pe1:1 Simon Peter, a servant and Apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who with us have a part in the same holy faith in the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ:
2Pe1:2 May grace and peace ever be increasing in you, in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord;
2Pe1:3 Because by his power he has given us everything necessary for life and righteousness, through the knowledge of him who has been our guide by his glory and virtue;
2Pe1:4 And through this he has given us the hope of great rewards highly to be valued; so that by them we might have our part in God's being, and be made free from the destruction which is in the world through the desires of the flesh.
2Pe1:5 So, for this very cause, take every care; joining virtue to faith, and knowledge to virtue,
2Pe1:8 For if you have these things in good measure, they will make you fertile and full of fruit in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
2Pe1:10 For this reason, my brothers, take all the more care to make your selection and approval certain; for if you do these things you will never have a fall:
2Pe1:11 For so the way will be open to you into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
2Pe1:12 For this reason I will be ready at all times to keep your memory of these things awake, though you have the knowledge of them now and are well based in your present faith.
2Pe1:13 And it seems right to me, as long as I am in this tent of flesh, to keep your minds awake by working on your memory;
2Pe1:14 For I am conscious that in a short time I will have to put off this tent of flesh, as our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me.
2Pe1:15 And I will take every care so that you may have a clear memory of these things after my death.
2Pe1:16 For when we gave you news of the power and the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, our teaching was not based on stories put together by art, but we were eye-witnesses of his glory.
2Pe1:18 And this voice came from heaven even to our ears, when we were with him on the holy mountain.
2Pe1:19 And so the words of the prophets are made more certain; and it is well for you to give attention to them as to a light shining in a dark place, till the dawn comes and the morning star is seen in your hearts;
2Pe2:1 But there were false prophets among the people, as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly put forward wrong teachings for your destruction, even turning away from the Lord who gave himself for them; whose destruction will come quickly, and they themselves will be the cause of it.
2Pe2:2 And a great number will go with them in their evil ways, through whom the true way will have a bad name.
2Pe2:3 And in their desire for profit they will come to you with words of deceit, like traders doing business in souls: whose punishment has been ready for a long time and their destruction is watching for them.
2Pe2:4 For if God did not have pity for the angels who did evil, but sent them down into hell, to be kept in chains of eternal night till they were judged;
2Pe2:8 (Because the soul of that upright man living among them was pained from day to day by seeing and hearing their crimes):
2Pe2:10 But specially those who go after the unclean desires of the flesh, and make sport of authority. Ready to take chances, uncontrolled, they have no fear of saying evil of those in high places:
2Pe2:11 Though the angels, who are greater in strength and power, do not make use of violent language against them before the Lord.
2Pe2:12 But these men, like beasts without reason, whose natural use is to be taken and put to death, crying out against things of which they have no knowledge, will undergo that same destruction which they are designing for others;
2Pe2:13 For the evil which overtakes them is the reward of their evil-doing: such men take their pleasure in the delights of the flesh even in the daytime; they are like the marks of a disease, like poisoned wounds among you, feasting together with you in joy;
2Pe2:14 Having eyes full of evil desire, never having enough of sin; turning feeble souls out of the true way; they are children of cursing, whose hearts are well used to bitter envy;
2Pe2:15 Turning out of the true way, they have gone wandering in error, after the way of Balaam, the son of Beor, who was pleased to take payment for wrongdoing;
2Pe2:17 These are fountains without water, and mists before a driving storm; for whom the eternal night is kept in store.
2Pe2:18 For with high-sounding false words, making use of the attraction of unclean desires of the flesh, they get into their power those newly made free from those who are living in error;
2Pe2:19 Saying that they will be free, while they themselves are the servants of destruction; because whatever gets the better of a man makes a servant of him.
2Pe2:20 For if, after they have got free from the unclean things of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again taken in the net and overcome, their last condition is worse than their first.
2Pe2:21 For it would have been better for them to have had no knowledge of the way of righteousness, than to go back again from the holy law which was given to them, after having knowledge of it.
2Pe2:22 They are an example of that true saying, The dog has gone back to the food it had put out, and the pig which had been washed to its rolling in the dirty earth.
2Pe3:1 My loved ones, this is now my second letter to you, and in this as in the first, I am attempting to keep your true minds awake;
2Pe3:2 So that you may keep in mind the words of the holy prophets in the past, and the law of the Lord and Saviour which was given to you by his Apostles.
2Pe3:5 But in taking this view they put out of their minds the memory that in the old days there was a heaven, and an earth lifted out of the water and circled by water, by the word of God;
2Pe3:8 But, my loved ones, keep in mind this one thing, that with the Lord one day is the same as a thousand years, and a thousand years are no more than one day.
2Pe3:9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his word, as he seems to some, but he is waiting in mercy for you, not desiring the destruction of any, but that all may be turned from their evil ways.
2Pe3:11 Seeing then that all these things are coming to such an end, what sort of persons is it right for you to be, in all holy behaviour and righteousness,
2Pe3:13 But having faith in his word, we are looking for a new heaven and a new earth, which will be the resting-place of righteousness.
2Pe3:14 For this reason, my loved ones, as you are looking for these things, take great care that when he comes you may be in peace before him, free from sin and every evil thing.
2Pe3:15 And be certain that the long waiting of the Lord is for salvation; even as our brother Paul has said in his letters to you, from the wisdom which was given to him;
2Pe3:17 For this reason, my loved ones, having knowledge of these things before they take place, take care that you are not turned away by the error of the uncontrolled, so falling from your true faith.
2Pe3:18 But be increased in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. May he have glory now and for ever. So be it.
1Jn1:1 That which was from the first, which has come to our ears, and which we have seen with our eyes, looking on it and touching it with our hands, about the Word of life
1Jn1:2 (And the life was made clear to us, and we have seen it and are witnessing to it and giving you word of that eternal life which was with the Father and was seen by us);
1Jn1:3 We give you word of all we have seen and everything which has come to our ears, so that you may be united with us; and we are united with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ:
1Jn1:4 And we are writing these things to you so that our joy may be made complete.
1Jn1:5 This is the word which came to us from him and which we give to you, that God is light and in him there is nothing dark.
1Jn1:6 If we say we are joined to him, and are walking still in the dark, our words are false and our acts are untrue:
1Jn1:7 But if we are walking in the light, as he is in the light, we are all united with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son makes us clean from all sin.
1Jn1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we are false to ourselves and there is nothing true in us.
1Jn1:9 If we say openly that we have done wrong, he is upright and true to his word, giving us forgiveness of sins and making us clean from all evil.
1Jn1:10 If we say that we have no sin, we make him false and his word is not in us.
1Jn2:1 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may be without sin. And if any man is a sinner, we have a friend and helper with the Father, Jesus Christ, the upright one:
1Jn2:2 He is the offering for our sins; and not for ours only, but for all the world.
1Jn2:3 And by this we may be certain that we have knowledge of him, if we keep his laws.
1Jn2:5 But in every man who keeps his word, the love of God is made complete. By this we may be certain that we are in him:
1Jn2:7 My loved ones, I do not give you a new law, but an old law which you had from the first; this old law is the word which came to your ears.
1Jn2:8 Again, I give you a new law, which is true in him and in you; for the night is near its end and the true light is even now shining out.
1Jn2:12 I am writing to you, my children, because you have forgiveness of sins through his name.
1Jn2:13 I am writing to you, fathers, because you have knowledge of him who was from the first. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the Evil One. I have sent a letter to you, children, because you have knowledge of the Father.
1Jn2:14 I have sent a letter to you, fathers, because you have knowledge of him who was from the first. I have sent a letter to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God is in you, and because you have overcome the Evil One.
1Jn2:18 Little children, it is the last hour; and as you were given word that the Antichrist would come, so now a number of Antichrists have come to you; and by this we are certain that it is the last hour.
1Jn2:19 They went out from us but they were not of us; if they had been of us they would still be with us: but they went out from us so that it might be made clear that they were not of us.
1Jn2:20 And you have the Spirit from the Holy One and you all have knowledge.
1Jn2:21 I have not sent you this letter because you have no knowledge of what is true, but because you have knowledge, and because that which is false has nothing in common with that which is true.
1Jn2:24 But as for you, keep in your hearts the things which were made clear to you from the first. If you keep these things in your hearts you will be kept in the Father and the Son.
1Jn2:25 And this is the hope which he gave you, even eternal life.
1Jn2:26 I am writing these things to you about those whose purpose is that you may be turned out of the true way.
1Jn2:27 As for you, the Spirit which he gave you is still in you, and you have no need of any teacher; but as his Spirit gives you teaching about all things, and is true and not false, so keep your hearts in him, through the teaching which he has given you.
1Jn2:28 And now, my children, keep your hearts in him; so that at his revelation, we may have no fear or shame before him at his coming.
1Jn2:29 If you have knowledge that he is upright, it is clear to you that everyone who does righteousness is his offspring.
1Jn3:1 See what great love the Father has given us in naming us the children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not see who we are, because it did not see who he was.
1Jn3:2 My loved ones, now we are children of God, and at present it is not clear what we are to be. We are certain that at his revelation we will be like him; for we will see him as he is.
1Jn3:5 And you have knowledge that he came to take away sin: and in him there is no sin.
1Jn3:7 My little children, let no man take you out of the true way: he who does righteousness is upright, even as he is upright;
1Jn3:11 Because this is the word which was given to you from the first, that we are to have love for one another;
1Jn3:13 Do not be surprised, my brothers, if the world has no love for you.
1Jn3:14 We are conscious that we have come out of death into life because of our love for the brothers. He who has no love is still in death.
1Jn3:15 Anyone who has hate for his brother is a taker of life, and you may be certain that no taker of life has eternal life in him.
1Jn3:16 In this we see what love is, because he gave his life for us; and it is right for us to give our lives for the brothers.
1Jn3:18 My little children, do not let our love be in word and in tongue, but let it be in act and in good faith.
1Jn3:19 In this way we may be certain that we are true, and may give our heart comfort before him,
1Jn3:20 When our heart says that we have done wrong; because God is greater than our heart, and has knowledge of all things.
1Jn3:21 My loved ones, if our heart does not say that we have done wrong, we have no fear before him;
1Jn3:22 And he gives us all our requests, because we keep his laws and do the things which are pleasing in his eyes.
1Jn3:23 And this is his law, that we have faith in the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love for one another, even as he said to us.
1Jn3:24 He who keeps his laws is in God and God is in him. And the Spirit which he gave us is our witness that he is in us.
1Jn4:1 My loved ones, do not put your faith in every spirit, but put them to the test, to see if they are from God: because a great number of false prophets have gone out into the world.
1Jn4:2 By this you may have knowledge of the Spirit of God: every spirit which says that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God:
1Jn4:3 And every spirit which does not say this is not from God: this is the spirit of Antichrist, of which you have had word; and it is in the world even now.
1Jn4:4 You are of God, my little children, and you have overcome them because he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.
1Jn4:5 They are of the world, so their talk is the world's talk, and the world gives ear to them.
1Jn4:6 We are of God: he who has the knowledge of God gives ear to us; he who is not of God does not give ear to us. By this we may see which is the true spirit, and which is the spirit of error.
1Jn4:7 My loved ones, let us have love for one another: because love is of God, and everyone who has love is a child of God and has knowledge of God.
1Jn4:9 And the love of God was made clear to us when he sent his only Son into the world so that we might have life through him.
1Jn4:10 And this is love, not that we had love for God, but that he had love for us, and sent his Son to be an offering for our sins.
1Jn4:11 My loved ones, if God had such love for us, it is right for us to have love for one another.
1Jn4:12 No man has ever seen God: if we have love for one another, God is in us and his love is made complete in us:
1Jn4:13 And his Spirit which he has given us is the witness that we are in him and he is in us.
1Jn4:14 And we have seen and give witness that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
1Jn4:16 And we have seen and had faith in the love which God has for us. God is love, and everyone who has love is in God, and God is in him.
1Jn4:17 In this way love is made complete in us, so that we may be without fear on the day of judging, because as he is, so are we in this world.
1Jn4:19 We have the power of loving, because he first had love for us.
1Jn4:21 And this is the word which we have from him, that he who has love for God is to have the same love for his brother.
1Jn5:2 In this way, we are certain that we have love for the children of God, when we have love for God and keep his laws.
1Jn5:3 For loving God is keeping his laws: and his laws are not hard.
1Jn5:4 Anything which comes from God is able to overcome the world: and the power by which we have overcome the world is our faith.
1Jn5:9 If we take the witness of men to be true, the witness of God is greater: because this is the witness which God has given about his Son.
1Jn5:11 And his witness is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
1Jn5:13 I have put these things in writing for you who have faith in the name of the Son of God, so that you may be certain that you have eternal life.
1Jn5:14 And we are certain that if we make any request to him which is right in his eyes, he will give ear to us:
1Jn5:15 And if we are certain that he gives ear to all our requests, we are equally certain that we will get our requests.
1Jn5:18 We are certain that one who is a child of God will do no sin, but the Son of God keeps him so that he is not touched by the Evil One.
1Jn5:19 We are certain that we are of God, but all the world is in the power of the Evil One.
1Jn5:20 And we are certain that the Son of God has come, and has given us a clear vision, so that we may see him who is true, and we are in him who is true, in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
1Jn5:21 My little children, keep yourselves from false gods.
2Jn1:2 Because of this true knowledge which is in us, and will be with us for ever:
2Jn1:3 May grace, mercy, and peace be with us from God the Father, and from Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in all true love.
2Jn1:4 It gave me great joy to see some of your children walking in the true way, even as we were ordered to do by the Father.
2Jn1:5 And now, my sister, I make a request to you, not sending you a new law, but the law which we had from the first, that we have love for one another.
2Jn1:6 And love is the keeping of his laws. This is the law which was given to you from the first, so that you might keep it.
2Jn1:7 Because a number of false teachers have gone out into the world, who do not give witness that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Such a one is a false teacher and Antichrist.
2Jn1:8 Keep watch over yourselves, so that you do not make our work of no effect, but may get your full reward.
2Jn1:10 If anyone comes to you not having this teaching, do not take him into your house or give him words of love:
2Jn1:12 Having much to say to you, it is not my purpose to put it all down with paper and ink: but I am hoping to come to you, and to have talk with you face to face, so that your joy may be full.
3Jn1:4 I have no greater joy than to have news that my children are walking in the true way.
3Jn1:6 Who have given witness to the church of your love for them: and you will do well to send them on their way well cared for, as is right for servants of God:
3Jn1:7 For they went out for love of the Name, taking nothing from the Gentiles.
3Jn1:8 So it is right for us to take in such men as guests, so that we may take our part in the work of the true faith.
3Jn1:9 I sent a letter to the church, but Diotrephes, whose desire is ever to have the first place among them, will not have us there.
3Jn1:10 So if I come, I will keep in mind the things he does, talking against us with evil words: and as if this was not enough, he does not take the brothers into his house, and those who are ready to take them in, he keeps from doing so, putting them out of the church if they do.
3Jn1:12 Demetrius has the approval of all men and of what is true: and we give the same witness, and you are certain that our witness is true.
3Jn1:14 But I am hoping to see you in a short time, and to have talk with you face to face.
Jud1:2 May mercy and peace and love be increased in you.
Jud1:3 My loved ones, while my thoughts were full of a letter which I was going to send you about our common salvation, it was necessary for me to send you one requesting you with all my heart to go on fighting strongly for the faith which has been given to the saints once and for ever.
Jud1:4 For certain men have come among you secretly, marked out before in the holy Writings for this evil fate, men without the fear of God, turning his grace into an unclean thing, and false to our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ.
Jud1:5 Now it is my purpose to put you in mind, though you once had knowledge of all these things, of how the Lord, having taken a people safely out of Egypt, later sent destruction on those who had no faith;
Jud1:6 And the angels who did not keep to their kingdom but went out from the place which was theirs, he has put in eternal chains and in dark night till the great day of the judging.
Jud1:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the towns near them, having like these, given themselves up to unclean desires and gone after strange flesh, have been made an example, undergoing the punishment of eternal fire.
Jud1:8 In the same way these dreamers make the flesh unclean, having no respect for authorities, and say evil of rulers.
Jud1:10 But these men say evil about such things as they have no knowledge of; and the things of which they have natural knowledge, like beasts without reason, are the cause of their destruction.
Jud1:11 A curse on them! They have gone in the way of Cain, running uncontrolled into the error of Balaam for reward, and have come to destruction by saying evil against the Lord, like Korah.
Jud1:12 These men are unseen rocks at your love-feasts, when they take part in them with you, keepers of sheep who without fear take the food of the sheep; clouds without water rushing before the wind, wasted trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots,
Jud1:13 Violent waves of the sea, streaming with their shame, wandering stars for whom the darkest night is kept in store for ever.
Jud1:17 But you, my loved ones, keep in memory the words which were said before by the Apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Jud1:18 How they said to you, In the last days there will be men who, guided by their evil desires, will make sport of holy things.
Jud1:20 But you, my loved ones, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, and making prayers in the Holy Spirit,
Jud1:21 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for life eternal through the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jud1:22 And have pity on those who are in doubt;
Jud1:23 And to some give salvation, pulling them out of the fire; and on some have mercy with fear, hating even the clothing which is made unclean by the flesh.
Jud1:24 Now to him who is able to keep you from falling, and to give you a place in his glory, free from all evil, with great joy,
Jud1:25 To the only God our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, let us give glory and honour and authority and power, before all time and now and for ever. So be it.
Rev1:5 And from Jesus Christ, the true witness, the first to come back from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who had love for us and has made us clean from our sins by his blood;
Rev1:6 And has made us to be a kingdom and priests to his God and Father; to him let glory and power be given for ever and ever. So be it.
Rev1:7 See, he comes with the clouds, and every eye will see him, and those by whom he was wounded; and all the tribes of the earth will be sorrowing because of him. Yes, so be it.
Rev1:9 I, John, your brother, who have a part with you in the trouble and the kingdom and the quiet strength of Jesus, was in the island which is named Patmos, for the word of God and the witness of Jesus.
Rev2:2 I have knowledge of your doings, and of your hard work and long waiting, and that you will not put up with evil men, and have put to the test those who say they are Apostles and are not, and have seen that they are false;
Rev2:9 I have knowledge of your troubles and how poor you are (but you have true wealth), and the evil words of those who say they are Jews, and are not, but are a Synagogue of Satan.
Rev2:10 Have no fear of the things which you will have to undergo: see, the Evil One will send some of you into prison, so that you may be put to the test; and you will have great trouble for ten days. Be true till death, and I will give you the crown of life.
Rev2:13 I have knowledge that your living-place is where Satan has his seat: and you are true to my name, and were not turned away from your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas, my true witness, who was put to death among you, where Satan has his place.
Rev2:14 But I have some things against you, because you have with you those who keep the teaching of Balaam, by whose suggestion Balak made the children of Israel go out of the right way, taking food which was offered to false gods, and going after the desires of the flesh.
Rev2:16 See, then, that you have a change of heart; or I will come to you quickly, and will make war against them with the sword of my mouth.
Rev2:20 But I have this against you, that you let the woman Jezebel say she is a prophet and give false teaching, making my servants go after the desires of the flesh and take food offered to false gods.
Rev2:22 See, I will put her into a bed, and those who make themselves unclean with her, into great trouble, if they go on with her works.
Rev2:23 And I will put her children to death; and all the churches will see that I am he who makes search into the secret thoughts and hearts of men: and I will give to every one of you the reward of your works.
Rev2:24 But to you I say, to the rest in Thyatira, even to those who have not this teaching, and have no knowledge of the secrets of Satan, as they say; I put on you no other weight.
Rev2:25 But what you have, keep safe till I come.
Rev2:27 And he will be ruling them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of the potter they will be broken, even as I have power from my Father:
Rev3:4 But you have some names in Sardis who have kept clean their robes; and as a reward they will go in white with me.
Rev3:9 See, I will make those of the Synagogue of Satan who say they are Jews, and are not, but say what is false; I will make them come and give worship before your feet, and see my love for you.
Rev3:14 And to the angel of the church in Laodicea say: These things says the true and certain witness, the head of God's new order:
Rev4:8 And the four beasts, having every one of them six wings, are full of eyes round about and inside: and without resting day and night, they say, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God, Ruler of all, who was and is and is to come.
Rev4:10 The four and twenty rulers go down on their faces before him who is seated on the high seat, and give worship to him who is living for ever and ever, and take off their crowns before the high seat, saying,
Rev4:11 It is right, our Lord and our God, for you to have glory and honour and power: because by you were all things made, and by your desire they came into being.
Rev5:9 And their voices are sounding in a new song, saying, It is right for you to take the book and to make it open: for you were put to death and have made an offering to God of your blood for men of every tribe, and language, and people, and nation,
Rev5:10 And have made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they are ruling on the earth.
Rev5:11 And I saw, and there came to my ears the sound of a great number of angels round about the high seat and the beasts and the rulers; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
Rev5:14 And the four beasts said, So be it. And the rulers went down on their faces and gave worship.
Rev6:8 And I saw a grey horse, and the name of him who was seated on it was Death; and Hell came after him. And there was given to them authority over the fourth part of the earth, to put to destruction by the sword, and by taking away their food, and by death, and by the beasts of the earth.
Rev6:10 And they gave a great cry, saying, How long will it be, O Ruler, holy and true, before you take your place as judge and give punishment for our blood to those on the earth?
Rev6:11 And there was given to every one a white robe, and they were ordered to take their rest for a little time, till the number was complete of the other servants, their brothers, who would be put to death, even as they had been.
Rev6:16 And they say to the mountains and to the rocks, Come down on us, covering us from the face of him who is seated on the high seat, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
Rev6:17 For the great day of their wrath is come, and who may keep his place?
Rev7:3 Do no damage to the earth, or the sea, or the trees, till we have put a mark on the servants of our God.
