- And they said to him, No, my lord; but to buy food are thy servants come. Gen. 42:10
- And he said to them, No; but to see the exposed places of the land are ye come. Gen. 42:12
- And Joseph said to them, That is it that I have spoken to you, saying, Ye are spies. Gen. 42:14
- By this ye shall be put to the proof: as Pharaoh lives, ye shall not go forth hence, unless your youngest brother come hither! Gen. 42:15
- Send one of you, that he may fetch your brother, but ye shall be imprisoned, and your words shall be put to the proof, whether the truth is in you; and if not, as Pharaoh lives, ye are spies. Gen. 42:16
- And Joseph said to them the third day, This do, that ye may live: I fear God. Gen. 42:18
- and bring your youngest brother to me, in order that your words be verified, and that ye may not die. And they did so. Gen. 42:20
- Then they said one to another, We are indeed guilty concerning our brother, whose anguish of soul we saw when he besought us, and we did not hearken; therefore this distress is come upon us. Gen. 42:21

- And we said to him, We are honest; we are not spies: Gen. 42:31
- And the man, the lord of the land, said to us, Hereby shall I know that ye are honest: leave one of your brethren with me, and take for the hunger of your households, and go, Gen. 42:33
- and bring your youngest brother to me, and I shall know that ye are not spies, but are honest. Your brother will I give up to you; and ye may trade in the land. Gen. 42:34

- But he said, My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he alone is left; and if mischief should befall him by the way in which ye go, then would ye bring down my grey hairs with sorrow to Sheol. Gen. 42:38
- And it came to pass, when they had finished eating the grain which they had brought from Egypt, that their father said to them, Go again, buy us a little food. Gen. 43:2
- And Judah spoke to him, saying, The man did positively testify to us, saying, Ye shall not see my face, unless your brother be with you. Gen. 43:3
- but if thou do not send him, we will not go down, for the man said to us, Ye shall not see my face, unless your brother be with you. Gen. 43:5
- And Israel said, Why did ye deal so ill with me as to tell the man whether ye had yet a brother? Gen. 43:6
- And they said, The man asked very closely after us, and after our kindred, saying, Is your father yet alive? have ye a brother? And we told him according to the tenor of these words. Could we at all know that he would say, Bring your brother down? Gen. 43:7
- And Judah said to Israel his father, Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go, that we may live, and not die, both we and thou and our little ones. Gen. 43:8
- I will be surety for him: of my hand shalt thou require him; if I bring him not to thee, and set him before thy face, then shall I be guilty toward thee for ever. Gen. 43:9
- And their father Israel said to them, If it is then so, do this: take of the best fruits in the land in your vessels, and carry down the man a gift: a little balsam and a little honey, tragacanth and ladanum, pistacia-nuts and almonds. Gen. 43:11
- And take other money in your hand, and the money that was returned to you in the mouth of your sacks, carry back in your hand: perhaps it is an oversight. Gen. 43:12
- And take your brother, and arise, go again to the man. Gen. 43:13
- And the men took that gift, and took double money in their hand, and Benjamin, and rose up, and went down to Egypt, and came before Joseph. Gen. 43:15
- And Joseph saw Benjamin with them, and said to the man who was over his house, Bring the men into the house, and slaughter cattle, and make ready; for the men shall eat with me at noon. Gen. 43:16
- And the men were afraid because they were brought into Joseph's house, and said, Because of the money that was returned to us in our sacks at the beginning are we brought in, that he may turn against us, and fall upon us and take us for bondmen, and our asses. Gen. 43:18
- And they came up to the man that was over Joseph's house, and they spoke to him at the door of the house, Gen. 43:19
- and said, Ah! my lord, we came indeed down at the first to buy food. Gen. 43:20
- And it came to pass when we came to the inn, that we opened our sacks, and behold, every man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money according to its weight; and we have brought it again in our hand. Gen. 43:21
- And other money have we brought down in our hand to buy food. We do not know who put our money in our sacks. Gen. 43:22
- And he said, Peace be to you, fear not: your God, and the God of your father, has given you treasure in your sacks; your money came to me. And he brought Simeon out to them. Gen. 43:23
- When Joseph came home, they brought him the gift that was in their hand, into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth. Gen. 43:26
- And he lifted up his eyes and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, Is this your younger brother of whom ye spoke to me? And he said, God be gracious to thee, my son! Gen. 43:29
- And Joseph made haste, for his bowels burned for his brother; and he sought a place to weep, and he went into the chamber, and wept there. Gen. 43:30
- And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright, and the youngest according to his youth; and the men marvelled one at another. Gen. 43:33
- And he had portions carried to them from before him. And Benjamin's portion was five times greater than the portions of them all. And they drank, and made merry with him. Gen. 43:34
- And put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, and his grain-money. And he did according to the word of Joseph which he had spoken. Gen. 44:2
- They were gone out of the city, and not yet far off, when Joseph said to him who was over his house, Up! follow after the men; and when thou overtakest them, thou shalt say to them, Why have ye rewarded evil for good? Gen. 44:4
- And he overtook them, and he spoke to them these words. Gen. 44:6
- And they said to him, Why does my lord speak such words as these? Far be it from thy servants to do such a thing! Gen. 44:7
- Behold, the money that we found in our sacks' mouths we have brought again to thee from the land of Canaan; and how should we steal out of thy lord's house silver or gold? Gen. 44:8
- And he said, Now also let it be according to your words: let him with whom it is found be my bondman, but ye shall be blameless. Gen. 44:10
- Then they rent their clothes, and loaded every man his ass, and they returned to the city. Gen. 44:13
- And Judah and his brethren came to Joseph's house; and he was still there; and they fell down before him to the ground. Gen. 44:14
- And Joseph said to them, What deed is this which ye have done? Did ye not know that such a man as I can certainly divine? Gen. 44:15
- And Judah said, What shall we say to my lord? what shall we speak, and how justify ourselves? God has found out the iniquity of thy servants; behold, we are my lord's bondmen, both we, and he in whose hand the cup has been found. Gen. 44:16
- And he said, Far be it from me to do so! The man in whose hand the cup has been found, he shall be my bondman; but as for you, go up in peace to your father. Gen. 44:17
- Then Judah came near to him, and said, Ah! my lord, let thy servant, I pray thee, speak a word in my lord's ears, and let not thine anger burn against thy servant; for thou art even as Pharaoh. Gen. 44:18
- And we said to my lord, We have an aged father, and a child born to him in his old age, yet young; and his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother; and his father loves him. Gen. 44:20
- And thou saidst unto thy servants, Bring him down to me, that I may set mine eye on him. Gen. 44:21
- And we said to my lord, The youth cannot leave his father: if he should leave his father, his father would die. Gen. 44:22
- And thou saidst to thy servants, Unless your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more. Gen. 44:23
- And it came to pass when we came up to thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord. Gen. 44:24
- And thy servant my father said to us, Ye know that my wife bore me two sons; Gen. 44:27
- And if ye take this one also from me, and mischief should befall him, ye will bring down my grey hairs with misery to Sheol. Gen. 44:29
- And now, when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad is not with us, -- seeing that his life is bound up with his life, Gen. 44:30
- it will come to pass when he sees that the lad is not there, that he will die; and thy servants will bring down the grey hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to Sheol. Gen. 44:31
- For thy servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, If I bring him not to thee, then I shall be guilty toward my father all my days. Gen. 44:32
- And now, let thy servant stay, I pray thee, instead of the lad a bondman to my lord, and let the lad go up with his brethren; Gen. 44:33
- for how should I go up to my father if the lad were not with me? -- lest I see the evil that would come on my father. Gen. 44:34
- And Joseph could not control himself before all them that stood by him, and he cried, Put every man out from me! And no man stood with him when Joseph made himself known to his brethren. Gen. 45:1
- And Joseph said to his brethren, I am Joseph. Does my father yet live? And his brethren could not answer him, for they were troubled at his presence. Gen. 45:3
- And Joseph said to his brethren, Come near to me, I pray you. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom ye sold into Egypt. Gen. 45:4
- And now, be not grieved, and be not angry with yourselves, that ye sold me hither, for God sent me before you to preserve life. Gen. 45:5
- So God sent me before you to preserve you a remnant in the earth, and to save you alive by a great deliverance. Gen. 45:7
- And now it was not you that sent me here, but God; and he has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and governor over all the land of Egypt. Gen. 45:8
- Haste and go up to my father, and say to him, Thus says thy son Joseph: God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, tarry not. Gen. 45:9
- And thou shalt dwell in the land of Goshen, and thou shalt be near to me, thou, and thy sons, and thy sons' sons, and thy sheep, and thy cattle, and all that thou hast. Gen. 45:10
- And behold, your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin, that it is my mouth which speaks to you. Gen. 45:12
- And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to thy brethren, Do this: load your beasts and depart, go into the land of Canaan, Gen. 45:17
- and take your father and your households, and come to me; and I will give you the good of the land of Egypt, and ye shall eat the fat of the land. Gen. 45:18
- And the sons of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them waggons, according to the commandment of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way. Gen. 45:21
- To each one of them all he gave changes of clothing; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of clothing. Gen. 45:22

- And he said, I am *God, the God of thy father: fear not to go down to Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great nation. Gen. 46:3
- I will go down with thee to Egypt, and I will also certainly bring thee up; and Joseph shall put his hand on thine eyes. Gen. 46:4

- then ye shall say, Thy servants are men that have been occupied with cattle from our youth even until now, both we and our fathers; in order that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians. Gen. 46:34

- the day that thou stoodest before Jehovah thy God in Horeb, when Jehovah said to me, Gather me the people together, that I may cause them to hear my words, that they may learn them, and fear me all the days that they live upon the earth, and teach them to their children. Dt. 4:10

- And he declared to you his covenant, which he commanded you to do, the ten words; and he wrote them on two tables of stone. Dt. 4:13
- And Jehovah commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and ordinances, that ye might do them in the land whither ye are passing over to possess it. Dt. 4:14
- And take great heed to your souls (for ye saw no form on the day that Jehovah spoke to you in Horeb from the midst of the fire), Dt. 4:15
- and lest thou lift up thine eyes to the heavens, and see the sun, and the moon, and the stars, the whole host of heaven, and be drawn away and bow down to them and serve them, which Jehovah thy God hath assigned unto all peoples under the whole heaven. Dt. 4:19

- In thy tribulation, and when all these things shall come upon thee, at the end of days, thou shalt return to Jehovah thy God, and shalt hearken to his voice, Dt. 4:30
- For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man on the earth, and from one end of the heavens to the other end of the heavens, whether there hath been anything as this great thing is, or if anything hath been heard like it? Dt. 4:32

- to dispossess nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou art, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day. Dt. 4:38
- that the manslayer might flee thither, who should kill his neighbour unawares, and hated him not previously, that fleeing to one of these cities, he might live: Dt. 4:42

- (I stood between Jehovah and you at that time, to declare to you the word of Jehovah; for ye were afraid by reason of the fire, and went not up to the mountain), saying, Dt. 5:5
- thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them; for I, Jehovah thy God, am a jealous *God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the sons, and upon the third and upon the fourth generation of them that hate me, Dt. 5:9
- Keep the sabbath day to hallow it, as Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee. Dt. 5:12
- And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and that Jehovah thy God brought thee out thence with a powerful hand and with a stretched-out arm; therefore Jehovah thy God hath commanded thee to observe the sabbath day. Dt. 5:15
- These words Jehovah spoke to all your congregation on the mountain from the midst of the fire, of the cloud, and of the obscurity, with a great voice, and he added no more; and he wrote them on two tables of stone, and gave them to me. Dt. 5:22
- And it came to pass, when ye heard the voice from the midst of the darkness, and the mountain burned with fire, that ye came near to me, all the heads of your tribes, and your elders; Dt. 5:23

- For a holy people art thou unto Jehovah thy God: Jehovah thy God hath chosen thee to be unto him a people for a possession, above all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth. Dt. 7:6
- Not because ye were more in number than all the peoples, hath Jehovah been attached to you and chosen you, for ye are the fewest of all the peoples; Dt. 7:7
- And thou shalt know that Jehovah thy God, he is God, the faithful *God, who keepeth covenant and mercy to a thousand generations with them that love him and keep his commandments; Dt. 7:9

- And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with the manna, which thou hadst not known, and which thy fathers knew not; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread alone, but by everything that goeth out of the mouth of Jehovah doth man live. Dt. 8:3
- and thou shalt keep the commandments of Jehovah thy God, to walk in his ways, and to fear him. Dt. 8:6

- Know therefore that Jehovah thy God doth not give thee this good land to possess it for thy righteousness; for thou art a stiff-necked people. Dt. 9:6

- For I was afraid of the anger and fury wherewith Jehovah was wroth against you to destroy you. And Jehovah listened unto me also at that time. Dt. 9:19
- And with Aaron Jehovah was very angry to destroy him; and I prayed for Aaron also at the same time. Dt. 9:20
- And at Taberah, and at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah, ye provoked Jehovah to wrath. Dt. 9:22
- And when Jehovah sent you from Kadesh-barnea, saying, Go up and take possession of the land which I have given you, ye rebelled against the word of Jehovah your God, and ye believed him not, nor hearkened to his voice. Dt. 9:23
- I prayed therefore to Jehovah, and said, Lord Jehovah, destroy not thy people and thine inheritance, which thou hast redeemed through thy greatness, which thou hast brought forth out of Egypt with a powerful hand. Dt. 9:26
- lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because Jehovah was not able to bring them into the land which he had promised them, and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to kill them in the wilderness. Dt. 9:28
- (And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth-Bene-Jaakan to Moserah: there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son exercised the priesthood in his stead. Dt. 10:6
- From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of water-brooks.) Dt. 10:7

- And Jehovah said unto me, Rise up, take thy journey before the people, that they may enter in and possess the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give unto them. Dt. 10:11
- And now, Israel, what doth Jehovah thy God require of thee, but to fear Jehovah thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Jehovah thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul, Dt. 10:12
- to keep the commandments of Jehovah, and his statutes, which I command thee this day, for thy good? Dt. 10:13
- Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens belong to Jehovah thy God; the earth and all that is therein. Dt. 10:14
- Only, Jehovah took pleasure in thy fathers, to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you, out of all the peoples, as it is this day. Dt. 10:15
- who executeth the judgment of the fatherless and the widow, and loveth the stranger, to give him food and clothing. Dt. 10:18
- -- and what he did unto you in the wilderness, until ye came to this place; Dt. 11:5
- and what he did unto Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben, -- how the earth opened its mouth, and swallowed them up, with their households, and their tents, and all the living substance that belonged to them, in the midst of all Israel. Dt. 11:6
- Keep then all the commandment which I command you this day, that ye may be strong, and enter in and possess the land, whither ye pass over to possess it; Dt. 11:8
- and that ye may prolong your days in the land which Jehovah swore unto your fathers to give unto them and unto their seed, a land flowing with milk and honey. Dt. 11:9
- For the land, whither thou enterest in to possess it, is not as the land of Egypt, from whence ye came out, where thou sowedst thy seed, and wateredst it with thy foot, as a garden of herbs; Dt. 11:10
- but the land, whereunto ye are passing over to possess it, is a land of mountains and valleys, which drinketh water of the rain of heaven, Dt. 11:11
- And it shall come to pass, if ye hearken diligently unto my commandments which I command you this day, to love Jehovah your God, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul, Dt. 11:13
- that I will give rain to your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain; and thou shalt gather in thy corn, and thy new wine, and thine oil; Dt. 11:14
- Take heed to yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside and serve other gods, and bow down to them, Dt. 11:16
- that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Jehovah swore unto your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens which are above the earth. Dt. 11:21

- And the children of Benjamin did so, and took wives, according to their number, of them that danced, whom they caught; and they went and returned to their inheritance, and built the cities, and dwelt in them. Judg. 21:23
- And the children of Israel departed thence at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from thence every man to his inheritance. Judg. 21:24
- And it came to pass in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land. And a certain man went from Bethlehem-Judah, to sojourn in the country of Moab, he, and his wife, and his two sons. Ruth 1:1
- And she arose, she and her daughters-in-law, and returned from the fields of Moab; for she had heard in the fields of Moab how that Jehovah had visited his people to give them bread. Ruth 1:6
- Wherefore she went forth out of the place where she had been, and her two daughters-in-law with her; and they went on the way to return to the land of Judah. Ruth 1:7
- And Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, Go, return each to her mother's house. Jehovah deal kindly with you, as ye have dealt with the dead and with me. Ruth 1:8
- And they said to her, We will certainly return with thee to thy people. Ruth 1:10
- Return, my daughters, go; for I am too old to have a husband. If I should say, I have hope, should I even have a husband to-night, and should I also bear sons, Ruth 1:12
- And they lifted up their voice and wept again. And Orpah kissed her mother-in-law, but Ruth clave to her. Ruth 1:14
- And she said, Behold, thy sister-in-law is gone back to her people and to her gods: return after thy sister-in-law. Ruth 1:15
- And Ruth said, Do not intreat me to leave thee, to return from following after thee; for whither thou goest I will go, and where thou lodgest I will lodge: thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God; Ruth 1:16
- where thou diest will I die, and there will I be buried. Jehovah do so to me, and more also, if aught but death part me and thee! Ruth 1:17
- And when she saw that she was stedfastly minded to go with her, she left off speaking to her. Ruth 1:18
- And they two went until they came to Bethlehem. And it came to pass, when they came to Bethlehem, that all the city was moved about them, and the women said, Is this Naomi? Ruth 1:19
- And she said to them, Call me not Naomi -- call me Mara; for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me. Ruth 1:20
- So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, with her, who returned out of the fields of Moab; and they came to Bethlehem in the beginning of the barley-harvest. Ruth 1:22
- And Ruth the Moabitess said to Naomi, Let me, I pray, go to the field and glean among the ears of corn after him in whose sight I shall find favour. And she said to her, Go, my daughter. Ruth 2:2
- And she went; and she came and gleaned in the fields after the reapers; and she chanced to light on an allotment of Boaz, who was of the family of Elimelech. Ruth 2:3
- And behold, Boaz came from Bethlehem; and he said to the reapers, Jehovah be with you! And they said to him, Jehovah bless thee! Ruth 2:4
- And Boaz said to his servant that was set over the reapers, Whose maiden is this? Ruth 2:5
- And Boaz said to Ruth, Hearest thou not, my daughter? Go not to glean in another field, neither go from here, but keep here with my maidens. Ruth 2:8
- Let thine eyes be on the field which is being reaped, and go thou after them; have I not charged the young men not to touch thee? And when thou art athirst, go to the vessels and drink of what the young men draw. Ruth 2:9
- Then she fell on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, and said to him, Why have I found favour in thine eyes, that thou shouldest regard me, seeing I am a foreigner? Ruth 2:10
- And Boaz answered and said to her, It has fully been shewn me, all that thou hast done to thy mother-in-law since the death of thy husband; and how thou hast left thy father and thy mother, and the land of thy nativity, and art come to a people that thou hast not known heretofore. Ruth 2:11
- Jehovah recompense thy work, and let thy reward be full from Jehovah the God of Israel, under whose wings thou art come to take refuge. Ruth 2:12
- And she said, Let me find favour in thine eyes, my lord; for that thou hast comforted me, and for that thou hast spoken kindly to thy handmaid, though I am not like one of thy handmaidens. Ruth 2:13
- And Boaz said to her at mealtime, Come hither and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. And she sat beside the reapers; and he reached her parched corn, and she ate and was sufficed, and reserved some. Ruth 2:14
- And when she rose up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, Let her glean even among the sheaves, and ye shall not reproach her. Ruth 2:15
- And she took it up, and came into the city, and her mother-in-law saw what she had gleaned; and she brought forth and gave to her that which she had reserved after she was sufficed. Ruth 2:18
- And her mother-in-law said to her, Where hast thou gleaned to-day? and where hast thou wrought? Blessed be he that did regard thee! And she told her mother-in-law with whom she had wrought, and said, The man's name with whom I wrought to-day is Boaz. Ruth 2:19
- And Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, Blessed be he of Jehovah, who has not left off his kindness to the living and to the dead! And Naomi said to her, The man is near of kin to us, one of those who have the right of our redemption. Ruth 2:20
- And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said to me also, Thou shalt keep with my young men until they have ended all my harvest. Ruth 2:21
- And Naomi said to Ruth her daughter-in-law, It is good, my daughter, that thou go out with his maidens, that they meet thee not in any other field. Ruth 2:22
- So she kept with the maidens of Boaz to glean, until the end of the barley-harvest and of the wheat-harvest. And she dwelt with her mother-in-law. Ruth 2:23
- And Naomi her mother-in-law said to her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee? Ruth 3:1
- Wash thyself therefore, and anoint thyself, and put thy raiment upon thee, and go down to the floor; make not thyself known to the man, until he shall have done eating and drinking. Ruth 3:3
- And she said to her, All that thou sayest will I do. Ruth 3:5
- And she went down to the floor, and did according to all that her mother-in-law had bidden her. Ruth 3:6
- And Boaz ate and drank, and his heart was merry, and he went to lie down at the end of the heap of corn. Then she went softly, and uncovered his feet, and laid herself down. Ruth 3:7
- And it came to pass at midnight, that the man was startled, and turned himself; and behold, a woman lay at his feet. Ruth 3:8
- And now, my daughter, fear not: all that thou sayest will I do to thee; for all the gate of my people knows that thou art a woman of worth. Ruth 3:11
- Stay over to-night, and it shall be in the morning, if he will redeem thee, well -- let him redeem; but if he like not to redeem thee, then will I redeem thee, as Jehovah liveth. Lie down until the morning. Ruth 3:13
- And she came to her mother-in-law; and she said, Who art thou, my daughter? And she told her all that the man had done to her. Ruth 3:16
- And she said, These six measures of barley gave he me; for he said to me, Go not empty to thy mother-in-law. Ruth 3:17
- And Boaz went up to the gate, and sat down there. And behold, he that had the right of redemption, of whom Boaz had spoken, came by. And he said, Thou, such a one, turn aside, sit down here. And he turned aside and sat down. Ruth 4:1
- And he said to him that had the right of redemption: Naomi, who is come back out of the country of Moab, sells the allotment that was our brother Elimelech's. Ruth 4:3
- And I thought I would apprise thee of it and say, Buy it in the presence of the inhabitants, and in the presence of the elders of my people. If thou wilt redeem it, redeem; but if thou wilt not redeem, tell me, that I may know; for there is none to redeem besides thee; and I am after thee. And he said, I will redeem it. Ruth 4:4
- And Boaz said, On the day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy it also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance. Ruth 4:5
- Now this was the custom in former time in Israel concerning redemption and concerning exchange, to confirm the whole matter: a man drew off his sandal, and gave it to his neighbour, and this was the mode of attestation in Israel. Ruth 4:7
- And he that had the right of redemption said to Boaz, Buy for thyself; and he drew off his sandal. Ruth 4:8
- And Boaz said to the elders and all the people, Ye are witnesses this day, that I have bought all that was Elimelech's, and all that was Chilion's and Mahlon's, of the hand of Naomi; Ruth 4:9
- moreover Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of Mahlon, have I purchased to be my wife, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance, that the name of the dead be not cut off from among his brethren and from the gate of his place: ye are witnesses this day. Ruth 4:10
- and let thy house become like the house of Pherez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, of the seed which Jehovah shall give thee of this young woman. Ruth 4:12
- And the women said to Naomi, Blessed be Jehovah who hath not left thee this day without one that has the right of redemption, and may his name be famous in Israel! Ruth 4:14
- And he shall be to thee a restorer of thy life, and a nourisher of thine old age; for thy daughter-in-law who loves thee, who is better to thee than seven sons, has borne him. Ruth 4:15
- And Naomi took the child, and laid it in her bosom, and became nurse to it. Ruth 4:16
- And the women her neighbours gave it a name, saying, There is a son born to Naomi. And they called his name Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David. Ruth 4:17
- And this man went up out of his city from year to year to worship and to sacrifice to Jehovah of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of Jehovah, were there. 1 Sam. 1:3
- And it came to pass on the day that Elkanah sacrificed, he gave to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and her daughters portions; 1 Sam. 1:4
- but to Hannah he used to give a double portion, for he loved Hannah; but Jehovah had shut up her womb. 1 Sam. 1:5
- And her adversary provoked her much also, to make her fret, because Jehovah had shut up her womb. 1 Sam. 1:6
- And as he did so year by year, as often as she went up to the house of Jehovah, she provoked her thus; and she wept and did not eat. 1 Sam. 1:7
- And Elkanah her husband said to her, Hannah, why weepest thou? and why eatest thou not? and why is thy heart grieved? Am not I better to thee than ten sons? 1 Sam. 1:8
- and she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to Jehovah, and wept much. 1 Sam. 1:10
- And she vowed a vow, and said, O Jehovah of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thy handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thy handmaid, but wilt give unto thy handmaid a man child, then I will give him to Jehovah all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head. 1 Sam. 1:11
- And it came to pass as she continued praying before Jehovah, that Eli marked her mouth. 1 Sam. 1:12
- And Eli said to her, How long wilt thou be drunken? put away thy wine from thee. 1 Sam. 1:14
- And they rose up early in the morning and worshipped before Jehovah, and returned and came to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife; and Jehovah remembered her. 1 Sam. 1:19
- And it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, that she bore a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, Because I have asked him of Jehovah. 1 Sam. 1:20
- And Elkanah her husband, and all his house, went up to sacrifice to Jehovah the yearly sacrifice and his vow. 1 Sam. 1:21
- But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, I will wait until the child is weaned; then will I bring him, that he may appear before Jehovah, and there abide for ever. 1 Sam. 1:22
- And Elkanah her husband said to her, Do what is good in thy sight: abide until thou hast weaned him; only, may Jehovah fulfil his word. And the woman abode, and gave her son suck until she weaned him. 1 Sam. 1:23
- And she took him up with her when she had weaned him, with three bullocks, and one ephah of flour, and a flask of wine, and brought him to the house of Jehovah to Shiloh; and the boy was young. 1 Sam. 1:24
- And they slaughtered the bullock, and brought the boy to Eli. 1 Sam. 1:25
- And she said, Oh my lord, as thy soul liveth, my lord, I am the woman that stood by thee here to pray to Jehovah. 1 Sam. 1:26
- And also I have lent him to Jehovah: all the days that he lives, he is lent to Jehovah. And he worshipped Jehovah there. 1 Sam. 1:28
- Jehovah killeth, and maketh alive; he bringeth down to Sheol, and bringeth up. 1 Sam. 2:6
- He raiseth up the poor out of the dust; from the dung-hill he lifteth up the needy, To set him among nobles; and he maketh them inherit a throne of glory; For the pillars of the earth are Jehovah's, and he hath set the world upon them. 1 Sam. 2:8
- They that strive with Jehovah shall be broken to pieces; in the heavens will he thunder upon them. Jehovah will judge the ends of the earth; and he will give strength unto his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed. 1 Sam. 2:10
- And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the boy ministered to Jehovah in the presence of Eli the priest. 1 Sam. 2:11
- and he struck it into the pan, or kettle, or cauldron, or pot; the priest took of it all that the flesh-hook brought up. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites that came there. 1 Sam. 2:14
- Even before they burned the fat, the priest's servant came, and said to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest, and he will not accept sodden flesh of thee, but raw. 1 Sam. 2:15
- If the man said to him, They will immediately burn the fat entire, then take as thy soul desires; he would say to him, No, but thou shalt give it now; and if not, I will take it by force. 1 Sam. 2:16
- And his mother made him a little coat, and brought it to him from year to year, when she came up with her husband to sacrifice the yearly sacrifice. 1 Sam. 2:19
- And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife, and said, Jehovah give thee seed of this woman for the loan which is lent to Jehovah. And they went to their own home. 1 Sam. 2:20
- And Eli was very old, and heard all that his sons were doing to all Israel, and that they lay with the women that served at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 1 Sam. 2:22
- And he said to them, Why do ye such things? for I hear of your evil deeds from all this people. 1 Sam. 2:23
- If one man sin against another, God will judge him; but if a man sin against Jehovah, who shall intreat for him? But they hearkened not to the voice of their father, for Jehovah was minded to slay them. 1 Sam. 2:25
- And there came a man of God to Eli and said to him, Thus saith Jehovah: Did I plainly reveal myself to the house of thy father when they were in Egypt, in Pharaoh's house, 1 Sam. 2:27
- and choose him out of all the tribes of Israel, to be my priest, to offer upon mine altar, to burn incense, to wear the ephod before me? and I gave unto the house of thy father all the offerings by fire of the children of Israel. 1 Sam. 2:28
- Wherefore do ye trample upon my sacrifice and upon mine oblation which I have commanded in my habitation? And thou honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the primest of all the oblations of Israel my people. 1 Sam. 2:29
- And thou shalt see an oppressor in my habitation, amidst all the good that shall be done to Israel; and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever. 1 Sam. 2:32
- And the man of thine whom I shall not cut off from mine altar, shall be to cause thine eyes to fail and to grieve thy soul; and all the increase of thy house shall die in their vigour. 1 Sam. 2:33
- And this shall be the sign to thee, which shall come upon thy two sons, upon Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall die, both of them. 1 Sam. 2:34
- And I will raise up for myself a faithful priest, who shall do according to what is in my heart and in my mind; and I will build him a sure house; and he shall walk before mine anointed continually. 1 Sam. 2:35
- And it shall come to pass that every one that is left of thy house shall come to crouch to him for a small piece of silver and for a cake of bread, and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into one of the priestly offices, that I may eat a morsel of bread. 1 Sam. 2:36
- And the boy Samuel ministered to Jehovah before Eli. And the word of Jehovah was rare in those days; a vision was not frequent. 1 Sam. 3:1
- And it came to pass at that time, when Eli lay in his place (now his eyes began to grow dim, he could not see), 1 Sam. 3:2
- that Jehovah called to Samuel. And he said, Here am I. 1 Sam. 3:4
- And he ran to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And he said, I did not call: lie down again. And he went and lay down. 1 Sam. 3:5
- And Jehovah called again, Samuel! And Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And he said, I did not call, my son: lie down again. 1 Sam. 3:6
- Now Samuel did not yet know Jehovah, neither had the word of Jehovah yet been revealed to him. 1 Sam. 3:7
- And Jehovah called again the third time, Samuel! And he arose and went to Eli, and said, Here am I; for thou calledst me. And Eli perceived that Jehovah was calling the boy. 1 Sam. 3:8
- And Eli said to Samuel, Go, lie down; and it shall be, if he call thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, Jehovah, for thy servant heareth. So Samuel went and lay down in his place. 1 Sam. 3:9
- And Jehovah said to Samuel, Behold, I do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of every one that heareth it shall tingle. 1 Sam. 3:11
- For I have declared to him that I will judge his house for ever, for the iniquity which he hath known: because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not. 1 Sam. 3:13
- And Samuel lay until the morning, and opened the doors of the house of Jehovah. And Samuel feared to declare the vision to Eli. 1 Sam. 3:15
- And he said, What is the word that he has spoken to thee? I pray thee, keep it not back from me: God do so to thee, and more also, if thou keep back anything from me of all the word that he spoke to thee. 1 Sam. 3:17
- And Samuel grew, and Jehovah was with him, and let none of his words fall to the ground. 1 Sam. 3:19
- And all Israel, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, knew that Samuel was established a prophet of Jehovah. 1 Sam. 3:20
- And Jehovah appeared again at Shiloh; for Jehovah revealed himself to Samuel at Shiloh by the word of Jehovah. 1 Sam. 3:21
- And what Samuel had said happened to all Israel. And Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Eben-ezer; and the Philistines encamped in Aphek. 1 Sam. 4:1
- So the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of Jehovah of hosts, who sitteth between the cherubim; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there by the ark of the covenant of God. 1 Sam. 4:4
- And it came to pass when the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came into the camp, that all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth shook. 1 Sam. 4:5
- Shew yourselves valiant and be men, ye Philistines, that ye may not have to be servants to the Hebrews, as they have been servants to you: be men, and fight. 1 Sam. 4:9
- And the Philistines fought, and Israel was routed, and they fled every man to his tent; and there was a very great slaughter, and there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen. 1 Sam. 4:10
- And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the battle, and came to Shiloh the same day, with his clothes rent and with earth upon his head. 1 Sam. 4:12
- And when he came, behold, Eli was sitting upon the seat by the way-side watching; for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And the man came to tell it in the city, and all the city cried out. 1 Sam. 4:13
- And the man said to Eli, I am he that came out of the battle, and I have fled to-day out of the battle. And he said, What has taken place, my son? 1 Sam. 4:16
- And it came to pass, when he mentioned the ark of God, that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck broke, and he died; for the man was old, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years. 1 Sam. 4:18
- And his daughter-in-law, Phinehas' wife, was with child, near to be delivered; and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed; for her pains came upon her. 1 Sam. 4:19
- And as she was dying, the women that stood by her said, Fear not; for thou hast borne a son. But she did not answer, neither did she take it to heart. 1 Sam. 4:20
- And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Eben-ezer to Ashdod. 1 Sam. 5:1
- And when they of Ashdod arose early the next day, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of Jehovah. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again. 1 Sam. 5:3
- And when they arose early the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of Jehovah; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the fish-stump was left to him. 1 Sam. 5:4
- Therefore neither the priests of Dagon nor any that come into Dagon's house tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day. 1 Sam. 5:5
- And they sent and gathered all the lords of the Philistines unto them, and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they said, Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about to Gath. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about thither. 1 Sam. 5:8
- And it came to pass that, after they had carried it about, the hand of Jehovah was against the city with very great panic; and he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and hemorrhoids broke out upon them. 1 Sam. 5:9
- And they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass, when the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people. 1 Sam. 5:10
- And they sent and gathered all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to its own place, that it kill us not, and our people. For there was deadly alarm throughout the city: the hand of God was very heavy there; 1 Sam. 5:11
- and the men that died not were smitten with the hemorrhoids; and the cry of the city went up to heaven. 1 Sam. 5:12
- And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, What shall we do with the ark of Jehovah? tell us wherewith we shall send it to its place. 1 Sam. 6:2
- And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of Israel, send it not empty; ye must at any rate return him a trespass-offering: then ye shall be healed, and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed from you. 1 Sam. 6:3
- Then they said, What is the trespass-offering which we shall return to him? And they said, Five golden hemorrhoids, and five golden mice, the number of the lords of the Philistines; for one plague is upon them all, and upon your lords. 1 Sam. 6:4
- And ye shall make images of your hemorrhoids, and images of your mice that destroy the land, and give glory to the God of Israel: perhaps he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land. 1 Sam. 6:5
- And now make a new cart, and take two milch kine, on which there has come no yoke, and tie the kine to the cart, and bring their calves home from them; 1 Sam. 6:7
- And see, if it go up by the way of its own border to Beth-shemesh, it is he who has done us this great evil; if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that touched us; it was a chance that happened to us. 1 Sam. 6:9
- And the men did so, and took two milch kine, and tied them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home. 1 Sam. 6:10
- And the kine went straight forward on the way to Beth-shemesh; they went by the one high way, lowing as they went; and they turned not aside to the right hand or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them as far as the border of Beth-shemesh. 1 Sam. 6:12
- And they of Beth-shemesh were reaping the wheat-harvest in the valley; and they lifted up their eyes and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it. 1 Sam. 6:13
- And the cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemeshite, and stood there; and a great stone was there. And they clave the wood of the cart, and offered up the kine as a burnt-offering to Jehovah. 1 Sam. 6:14
- And the Levites took down the ark of Jehovah, and the coffer that was with it, in which were the golden jewels, and put them on the great stone; and the men of Beth-shemesh offered up burnt-offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day to Jehovah. 1 Sam. 6:15
- And the five lords of the Philistines saw it, and returned to Ekron the same day. 1 Sam. 6:16
- And these are the golden sores which the Philistines returned as a trespass-offering to Jehovah: for Ashdod one, for Gazah one, for Ashkelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one; 1 Sam. 6:17
- and the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both fortified cities and villages of the peasantry; and they brought them as far as the great stone of Abel, whereon they set down the ark of Jehovah, which is to this day in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemeshite. 1 Sam. 6:18
- And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to stand before Jehovah, this holy God? and to whom shall he go up from us? 1 Sam. 6:20
- And they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kirjath-jearim, saying, The Philistines have brought again the ark of Jehovah; come down, fetch it up to you. 1 Sam. 6:21
- And the men of Kirjath-jearim came, and fetched up the ark of Jehovah, and brought it into the house of Abinadab on the hill, and hallowed Eleazar his son to keep the ark of Jehovah. 1 Sam. 7:1
- And it came to pass, from the day that the ark abode in Kirjath-jearim, that the time was long; for it was twenty years. And all the house of Israel lamented after Jehovah. 1 Sam. 7:2
- And Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, If ye return to Jehovah with all your heart, put away the strange gods and the Ashtoreths from among you, and apply your hearts unto Jehovah, and serve him only; and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines. 1 Sam. 7:3
- And Samuel said, Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray Jehovah for you. 1 Sam. 7:5
- And they gathered together to Mizpah, and drew water, and poured it out before Jehovah, and fasted on that day, and said there, We have sinned against Jehovah. And Samuel judged the children of Israel in Mizpah. 1 Sam. 7:6
- And the children of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry to Jehovah our God for us, that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines. 1 Sam. 7:8
- And Samuel took a sucking-lamb, and offered it as a whole burnt-offering to Jehovah; and Samuel cried to Jehovah for Israel, and Jehovah answered him. 1 Sam. 7:9
- And as Samuel was offering up the burnt-offering, the Philistines advanced to battle against Israel. And Jehovah thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines, and discomfited them; and they were routed before Israel. 1 Sam. 7:10
- And the cities that the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron even to Gath; and their territory did Israel deliver out of the hand of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorite. 1 Sam. 7:14
- And he went from year to year in circuit to Bethel, and Gilgal, and Mizpah, and judged Israel in all those places. 1 Sam. 7:16
- And his return was to Ramah; for there was his house, and there he judged Israel; and there he built an altar to Jehovah. 1 Sam. 7:17

- And Jonathan said, Far be it from thee; for, if I knew with certainty that evil were determined by my father to come upon thee, would I not tell it thee? 1 Sam. 20:9
- Then said David to Jonathan, Who shall tell me? or what if thy father answer thee roughly? 1 Sam. 20:10

- Jehovah do so and much more to Jonathan. Should it please my father to do thee evil, then I will apprise thee of it, and send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace; and Jehovah be with thee, as he has been with my father. 1 Sam. 20:13
- And Jonathan caused David to swear again, by the love he had for him, for he loved him as he loved his own soul. 1 Sam. 20:17
- And Jonathan said to him, To-morrow is the new moon; and thou wilt be missed, for thy seat will be empty; 1 Sam. 20:18
- but on the third day thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place where thou didst hide thyself on the day of the business, and abide by the stone Ezel. 1 Sam. 20:19
- And behold, I will send the lad, saying, Go, find the arrows. If I expressly say to the lad, Behold, the arrows are on this side of thee, take them; then come, for there is peace for thee, and it is nothing; as Jehovah liveth. 1 Sam. 20:21
- But if I say thus to the youth: Behold, the arrows are beyond thee, -- go thy way; for Jehovah sends thee away. 1 Sam. 20:22

- And Jonathan answered Saul, David earnestly asked leave of me to go to Bethlehem, 1 Sam. 20:28
- and said, Let me go, I pray thee; for we have a family sacrifice in the city; and my brother himself has commanded me to be there; and now, if I have found favour in thy sight, let me go away, I pray thee, and see my brethren. He has therefore not come to the king's table. 1 Sam. 20:29
- And Saul's anger was kindled against Jonathan, and he said to him, Son of the perverse rebellious woman, do not I know that thou hast chosen the son of Jesse to thine own shame and to the shame of thy mother's nakedness? 1 Sam. 20:30
- For as long as the son of Jesse lives upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. And now send and fetch him to me, for he must die. 1 Sam. 20:31
- And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said to him, Why should he be put to death? what has he done? 1 Sam. 20:32
- Then Saul cast the spear at him to smite him; and Jonathan knew that it was determined by his father to put David to death. 1 Sam. 20:33

- And Jonathan said to David, Go in peace, forasmuch as we have both of us sworn in the name of Jehovah, saying, Jehovah be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever! And he arose and departed; and Jonathan went into the city. 1 Sam. 20:42

- And David answered the priest and said to him, Yes indeed, women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in a manner common, and the more so, because to-day new is hallowed in the vessels. 1 Sam. 21:5
- And the priest gave him holy bread; for there was no bread there but the shew-loaves that were taken from before Jehovah, to put on hot bread in the day when they were taken away. 1 Sam. 21:6

- And David arose, and fled that day from before Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath. 1 Sam. 21:10

- And David took to heart these words, and was much afraid of Achish the king of Gath. 1 Sam. 21:12
- And Achish said to his servants, Behold, ye see the man is mad: why did ye bring him to me? 1 Sam. 21:14
- have I lack of madmen, that ye have brought this one to rave in my presence? shall this man come into my house? 1 Sam. 21:15

- And Saul said to him, Why have ye conspired against me, thou and the son of Jesse, in that thou hast given him bread, and a sword, and hast inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me as a lier-in-wait, as at this day? 1 Sam. 22:13
- And Ahimelech answered the king and said, And who is so faithful among all thy servants as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and has access to thy secret council, and is honourable in thy house? 1 Sam. 22:14
- Was it to-day that I began to inquire of God for him? be it far from me: let not the king charge anything to his servant, nor to all the house of my father; for thy servant knew nothing of all this, less or more. 1 Sam. 22:15
- And the king said to the couriers that stood about him, Turn and put the priests of Jehovah to death; because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled, and did not inform me.

- And see, and ascertain all the lurking-places where he hides himself, and come ye again to me with sure information, that I may go with you; and it shall come to pass, if he be in the land, that I will search him out throughout the thousands of Judah. 1 Sam. 23:23

- And David's men said to him, Behold the day of which Jehovah said to thee, Behold, I will give thine enemy into thy hand, that thou mayest do to him as it shall seem good to thee. And David arose, and cut off the skirt of Saul's robe secretly. 1 Sam. 24:4
- And it came to pass afterwards that David's heart smote him, because he had cut off Saul's skirt. 1 Sam. 24:5

- And David said to his men, Gird ye on every man his sword. And they girded on every man his sword; and David also girded on his sword; and there went up after David about four hundred men; and two hundred abode by the baggage. 1 Sam. 25:13
- And one of Nabal's young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, Behold, David sent messengers out of the wilderness to bless our master; and he has insulted them. 1 Sam. 25:14
- And the men were very good to us, and we were not hurt, neither missed we anything, as long as we companied with them, when we were in the fields. 1 Sam. 25:15
- They were a wall to us both by night and day, all the while we were with them feeding the sheep. 1 Sam. 25:16
- And now know and consider what thou wilt do, for evil is determined against our master, and against all his household; and he is such a son of Belial, that one cannot speak to him. 1 Sam. 25:17
- And she said to her young men, Go on before me; behold, I come after you. But she did not tell her husband Nabal. 1 Sam. 25:19
- And as she was riding on the ass, and coming down by the covert of the hill, behold, David and his men came down opposite to her; and she met them. 1 Sam. 25:20
- So and more also do God to the enemies of David, if I leave of all that is his by the morning light any male. 1 Sam. 25:22
- And when Abigail saw David, she hasted and lighted off the ass, and fell before David on her face, and bowed herself to the ground, 1 Sam. 25:23
- And now, my lord, as Jehovah liveth, and as thy soul liveth, seeing Jehovah has restrained thee from coming with bloodshed, and from avenging thyself with thine own hand, now let thine enemies, and they that seek evil to my lord, be as Nabal. 1 Sam. 25:26
- And now this blessing which thy bondmaid has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men that follow my lord. 1 Sam. 25:27
- And if a man is risen up to pursue thee and to seek thy life, the soul of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of the living with Jehovah thy God; and the souls of thine enemies, them shall he sling out from the hollow of the sling. 1 Sam. 25:29
- And it shall come to pass, when Jehovah shall do to my lord according to all the good that he has spoken concerning thee, and shall appoint thee ruler over Israel, 1 Sam. 25:30
- that this shall be no stumbling-block to thee, nor offence of heart for my lord, either that thou hast shed blood without cause, or that my lord has avenged himself. And when Jehovah shall deal well with my lord, then remember thy handmaid. 1 Sam. 25:31
- And David said to Abigail, Blessed be Jehovah, the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me. 1 Sam. 25:32
- But indeed, as Jehovah the God of Israel liveth, who has restrained me from hurting thee, except thou hadst hasted and come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light any male. 1 Sam. 25:34
- So David received of her hand what she had brought him, and said to her, Go up in peace to thy house; see, I have hearkened to thy voice, and have accepted thy person. 1 Sam. 25:35
- And Abigail came to Nabal; and behold, he held a feast in his house, like the feast of a king; and Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was drunken to excess; so she told him nothing, less or more, until the morning light. 1 Sam. 25:36
- And it came to pass in the morning, when the wine was gone out of Nabal, that his wife told him these things; and his heart died within him, and he became as a stone. 1 Sam. 25:37
- And it came to pass in about ten days that Jehovah smote Nabal, and he died. 1 Sam. 25:38
- And when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, Blessed be Jehovah, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept back his servant from evil; but Jehovah has returned Nabal's evil upon his own head. And David sent and communed with Abigail, to take her as his wife. 1 Sam. 25:39
- And the servants of David came to Abigail to Carmel, and spoke to her, saying, David has sent us to thee, to take thee as his wife. 1 Sam. 25:40
- And she arose and bowed herself on her face to the earth, and said, Behold, let thy handmaid be a bondwoman to wash the feet of the servants of my lord. 1 Sam. 25:41
- But Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Phalti the son of Laish, who was of Gallim. 1 Sam. 25:44
- And the Ziphites came to Saul to Gibeah, saying, Does not David hide himself in the hill of Hachilah, facing the waste? 1 Sam. 26:1
- And Saul arose, and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph. 1 Sam. 26:2
- And David arose and came to the place where Saul had encamped; and David beheld the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the captain of his host; and Saul lay within the wagon-defence, and the people were encamped round about him. 1 Sam. 26:5
- And David spake and said to Ahimelech the Hittite, and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, saying, Who will go down with me to Saul to the camp? And Abishai said, I will go down with thee. 1 Sam. 26:6
- And David and Abishai came to the people by night, and behold, Saul lay sleeping within the wagon-defence, and his spear stuck in the ground at his head; and Abner and the people lay round about him. 1 Sam. 26:7
- And Abishai said to David, God has delivered thine enemy into thy hand this day; and now let me smite him, I pray thee, with the spear, even to the ground once, and I will not do it the second time. 1 Sam. 26:8
- And David said to Abishai, Destroy him not; for who can stretch forth his hand against Jehovah's anointed, and be guiltless? 1 Sam. 26:9
- And David said, As Jehovah liveth, Jehovah will surely smite him; either his day shall come to die, or he shall descend into battle and perish. 1 Sam. 26:10
- And David went over to the other side, and stood on the top of a hill afar off; a great space being between them. 1 Sam. 26:13
- And David cried to the people, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, Answerest thou not, Abner? Then Abner answered and said, Who art thou that criest to the king? 1 Sam. 26:14
- And David said to Abner, Art not thou a man? and who is like to thee in Israel? and why hast thou not guarded thy lord the king? for one of the people came in to destroy the king thy lord. 1 Sam. 26:15
- This thing is not good which thou hast done. As Jehovah liveth, ye are worthy to die, because ye have not guarded your master, Jehovah's anointed. And now see where the king's spear is, and the cruse of water that was at his head. 1 Sam. 26:16
- And now, I pray thee, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If Jehovah have moved thee against me, let him accept an oblation; but if the sons of men, cursed be they before Jehovah; for they have driven me out this day from adhering to the inheritance of Jehovah, saying, Go, serve other gods. 1 Sam. 26:19
- And now, let not my blood fall to the earth far from the face of Jehovah; for the king of Israel is come out to seek a single flea, as when they hunt a partridge on the mountains. 1 Sam. 26:20
- And Jehovah will render to every man his righteousness and his faithfulness; for Jehovah gave thee into my hand this day, and I would not stretch forth my hand against Jehovah's anointed. 1 Sam. 26:23
- And Saul said to David, Blessed be thou, my son David: thou shalt certainly do great things, and shalt certainly prevail. And David went on his way, and Saul returned to his place. 1 Sam. 26:25
- And David said in his heart, I shall now perish one day by the hand of Saul: there is nothing better for me than that I should speedily escape into the land of the Philistines; and Saul will despair of me to seek me any more within all the limits of Israel, and I shall escape out of his hand. 1 Sam. 27:1
- And David arose and passed over, he and the six hundred men that were with him, to Achish, the son of Maoch, king of Gath. 1 Sam. 27:2
- And it was told Saul that David had fled to Gath; and he sought no more for him. 1 Sam. 27:4
- And David said to Achish, If now I have found favour in thine eyes, let them give me a place in some country-town, that I may abide there; for why should thy servant abide in the royal city with thee? 1 Sam. 27:5
- And Achish gave him Ziklag that day; therefore Ziklag belongs to the kings of Judah to this day. 1 Sam. 27:6
- And David and his men went up and made a raid upon the Geshurites, and the Gerzites, and the Amalekites: for those were of old the inhabitants of the land, as thou goest to Shur, and as far as the land of Egypt. 1 Sam. 27:8
- And David smote the land, and left neither man nor woman alive, and took away the sheep, and the oxen, and the asses, and the camels, and the apparel, and returned, and came to Achish. 1 Sam. 27:9
- And David left neither man nor woman alive, to bring them to Gath, for he said, Lest they should tell of us, saying, So did David. And such was his custom as long as he abode in the country of the Philistines. 1 Sam. 27:11
- And it came to pass in those days that the Philistines gathered together their armies for warfare to fight against Israel. And Achish said to David, Know thou assuredly that thou shalt go out with me to the camp, thou and thy men. 1 Sam. 28:1
- And David said to Achish, Thereby thou shalt know what thy servant can do. And Achish said to David, Therefore will I make thee keeper of my person for ever. 1 Sam. 28:2
- Then said Saul to his servants, Seek me a woman that has a spirit of Python, that I may go to her and inquire of her. And his servants said to him, Behold, there is a woman who has a spirit of Python at En-dor. 1 Sam. 28:7
- And Saul disguised himself, and put on other garments, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night; and he said, I pray thee, divine to me by the spirit of Python, and bring me him up whom I shall name to thee. 1 Sam. 28:8
- And the woman said to him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul has done, how he has cut off the necromancers and the soothsayers out of the land; and why layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die? 1 Sam. 28:9
- And Saul swore unto her by Jehovah, saying, As Jehovah liveth, there shall no punishment happen to thee for this thing. 1 Sam. 28:10
- Then said the woman, Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel. 1 Sam. 28:11
- And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice; and the woman spoke to Saul, saying, Why hast thou deceived me? Even thou art Saul. 1 Sam. 28:12
- And the king said to her, Be not afraid; but what didst thou see? And the woman said to Saul, I saw a god ascending out of the earth. 1 Sam. 28:13
- And he said to her, What is his form? And she said, An old man comes up; and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul knew that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground, and bowed himself. 1 Sam. 28:14
- And Samuel said to Saul, Why hast thou disquieted me, to bring me up? And Saul said, I am sore distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God is departed from me, and answers me no more, neither by prophets nor by dreams; therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest make known to me what I shall do. 1 Sam. 28:15
- And Jehovah has done for himself as he spoke by me; and Jehovah has rent the kingdom out of thy hand, and given it to thy neighbour, to David. 1 Sam. 28:17
- Because thou didst not hearken to the voice of Jehovah, and didst not execute his fierce anger upon Amalek, therefore has Jehovah done this thing to thee this day. 1 Sam. 28:18
- And the woman came to Saul, and saw that he was sore troubled, and said to him, Behold, thy bondmaid has hearkened to thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand, and have hearkened to thy words which thou spokest to me. 1 Sam. 28:21
- And now, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy bondmaid, and let me set a morsel of bread before thee; and eat, that thou mayest have strength when thou goest on thy way. 1 Sam. 28:22
- But he refused and said, I will not eat. Then his servants, and the woman also, compelled him, and he hearkened to their voice; and he arose from the earth and sat on the bed. 1 Sam. 28:23
- And the Philistines gathered together all their armies to Aphek; and Israel encamped by the spring that is in Jizreel. 1 Sam. 29:1
- And the princes of the Philistines said, What are these Hebrews? And Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, Is not this David, the servant of Saul the king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or these years, and I have found nothing in him since the day of his falling away to me to this day? 1 Sam. 29:3
- But the princes of the Philistines were wroth with him; and the princes of the Philistines said to him, Make the man return, that he may go again to his place where thou hast appointed him, that he go not down with us to the battle, that in the battle he be not an adversary to us; for wherewith should this fellow reconcile himself to his master? should it not be with the heads of these men? 1 Sam. 29:4
- Is not this David, of whom they sang one to another in dances, saying, Saul smote his thousands, and David his ten thousands? 1 Sam. 29:5
- And Achish called David, and said to him, As Jehovah liveth, thou art upright, and thy going out and thy coming in with me in the camp is acceptable to me; for I have not found evil in thee since the day of thy coming to me to this day; but thou art not acceptable to the lords. 1 Sam. 29:6
- And David said to Achish, But what have I done? and what hast thou found in thy servant so long as I have been with thee to this day, that I should not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king? 1 Sam. 29:8
- And Achish answered and said to David, I know that thou art acceptable to me, as an angel of God; nevertheless the princes of the Philistines have said, He shall not go up with us to the battle. 1 Sam. 29:9
- And David rose up early, he and his men, to depart in the morning, to return into the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jizreel. 1 Sam. 29:11
- And it came to pass, when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had made a raid upon the south, and upon Ziklag, and smitten Ziklag and burned it with fire; 1 Sam. 30:1
- and had taken the women captives that were in it; both great and small: they had put none to death, but had carried them off, and went on their way. 1 Sam. 30:2
- And David and his men came to the city, and behold, it was burnt with fire; and their wives, and their sons, and their daughters were taken captives. 1 Sam. 30:3
- Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep. 1 Sam. 30:4
- And David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech's son, Bring near to me, I pray thee, the ephod. And Abiathar brought the ephod near to David. 1 Sam. 30:7
- And David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I pursue after this troop? shall I overtake them? And he said to him, Pursue; for thou shalt assuredly overtake them and shalt certainly recover. 1 Sam. 30:8
- So David went, he and the six hundred men that were with him, and they came to the torrent Besor; and those that were left stayed behind. 1 Sam. 30:9
- And David pursued, he and four hundred men; for two hundred stayed behind, who were too exhausted to go over the torrent Besor. 1 Sam. 30:10
- And they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David, and gave him bread, and he ate; and they gave him water to drink, 1 Sam. 30:11
- and gave him a piece of fig-cake and two raisin-cakes, and he ate, and his spirit came again to him; for he had eaten no bread, nor drunk any water, for three days and three nights. 1 Sam. 30:12
- And David said to him, To whom belongest thou? and whence art thou? And he said, I am a young man of Egypt, servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me, because three days ago I fell sick. 1 Sam. 30:13
- We made a raid against the south of the Cherethites, and against what belongs to Judah, and against the south of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire. 1 Sam. 30:14
- And David said to him, Canst thou bring me down to this troop? And he said, Swear to me by God, that thou wilt neither put me to death nor deliver me up into the hand of my master, and I will bring thee down to this troop. 1 Sam. 30:15
- And David smote them from the twilight even to the evening of the next day; and there escaped not a man of them, save four hundred young men, who rode upon camels, and fled. 1 Sam. 30:17
- And David came to the two hundred men who had been too exhausted to follow David, and whom they had left behind at the torrent Besor; and they went forth to meet David, and to meet the people that were with him; and David drew near to the people and saluted them. 1 Sam. 30:21
- And all the wicked men, and men of Belial, of those that had gone with David, answered and said, Because they went not with us, we will not give them aught of the spoil that we have recovered, save to every man his wife and his children, that they may lead them away and depart. 1 Sam. 30:22
- And who will hearken to you in this matter? For as his share is that goes down to the battle, so shall his share be that abides by the baggage: they shall share alike. 1 Sam. 30:24
- And it was so from that day forward; and he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel to this day. 1 Sam. 30:25
- And David came to Ziklag, and he sent of the spoil to the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying, Behold a present for you of the spoil of the enemies of Jehovah: 1 Sam. 30:26
- to those in Bethel, and to those in south Ramoth, and to those in Jattir, 1 Sam. 30:27
- and to those in Aroer, and to those in Siphmoth, and to those in Eshtemoa, 1 Sam. 30:28
- and to those in Rachal, and to those in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, and to those in the cities of the Kenites, 1 Sam. 30:29
- and to those in Hormah, and to those in Chor-ashan, and to those in Athach, 1 Sam. 30:30
- and to those in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men went about. 1 Sam. 30:31
- Then said Saul to his armour-bearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through with it; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armour-bearer would not; for he was much afraid. So Saul took the sword and fell on it. 1 Sam. 31:4
- And it came to pass the next day, that the Philistines came to strip the slain, and they found Saul and his three sons fallen on mount Gilboa. 1 Sam. 31:8

- And it came to pass on the third day, that behold, a man came out of the camp from Saul with his garments rent, and earth upon his head; and as soon as he came to David, he fell to the earth and did obeisance. 2 Sam. 1:2
- And David said to him, Whence comest thou? And he said to him, Out of the camp of Israel am I escaped. 2 Sam. 1:3
- And David said to him, What has taken place? I pray thee, tell me. And he said that the people had fled from the battle, and many of the people also had fallen and died, and that Saul and Jonathan his son were dead also. 2 Sam. 1:4
- And David said to the young man that told him, How knowest thou that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead? 2 Sam. 1:5
- And the young man that told him said, I happened by chance to be upon mount Gilboa, and behold, Saul leaned on his spear; and behold, the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him. 2 Sam. 1:6
- And he looked behind him, and saw me, and called to me. And I said, Here am I. 2 Sam. 1:7
- And he said to me, Who art thou? And I said to him, I am an Amalekite. 2 Sam. 1:8
- He said to me again, Stand, I pray thee, over me, and slay me; for anguish has seized me; for my life is yet whole in me. 2 Sam. 1:9
- So I stood over him, and put him to death, for I knew that he would not live after his fall; and I took the crown that was upon his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them hither to my lord. 2 Sam. 1:10
- And David said to the young man that told him, Whence art thou? And he said, I am the son of an Amalekite stranger. 2 Sam. 1:13
- And David said to him, How wast thou not afraid to stretch forth thy hand to destroy Jehovah's anointed? 2 Sam. 1:14
- And David said to him, Thy blood be upon thy head; for thy mouth has testified against thee, saying, I have slain Jehovah's anointed. 2 Sam. 1:16
- I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant wast thou unto me; Thy love to me was wonderful, passing women's love. 2 Sam. 1:26
- And it came to pass after this that David inquired of Jehovah, saying, Shall I go up into one of the cities of Judah? And Jehovah said to him, Go up. And David said, Whither shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron. 2 Sam. 2:1
- And David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh-Gilead, and said to them, Blessed be ye of Jehovah, that ye have shewn this kindness to your lord, to Saul, and have buried him! 2 Sam. 2:5
- And now Jehovah shew kindness and faithfulness to you; and I also will requite you this good, because ye have done this thing. 2 Sam. 2:6
- And Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul's host, took Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and brought him over to Mahanaim; 2 Sam. 2:8
- Ishbosheth Saul's son was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. However, the house of Judah followed David. 2 Sam. 2:10
- And Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon. 2 Sam. 2:12
- And Abner said to Joab, Let the young men now arise and make sport before us. And Joab said, Let them arise. 2 Sam. 2:14
- And Asahel pursued after Abner; and in going he turned not to the right hand nor to the left from behind Abner. 2 Sam. 2:19
- And Abner said to him, Turn thee aside, to thy right hand or to thy left, and lay hold of one of the young men, and take for thyself his armour. But Asahel would not turn aside from following him. 2 Sam. 2:21
- And Abner said again to Asahel, Turn thee aside from following me: why should I smite thee to the ground? how then should I hold up my face to Joab thy brother? 2 Sam. 2:22
- But he refused to turn aside; therefore Abner with the hinder end of the spear smote him in the belly, so that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place. And it came to pass, that as many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still. 2 Sam. 2:23
- And Joab and Abishai pursued after Abner; and the sun went down when they came to the hill of Ammah, which is before Giah on the way to the wilderness of Gibeon. 2 Sam. 2:24
- And Abner called to Joab, and said, Shall the sword devour for ever? knowest thou not that it will be bitterness in the latter end? and how long shall it be ere thou bid the people return from following their brethren? 2 Sam. 2:26
- And Abner and his men walked all that night through the plain, and passed over the Jordan, and went through all Bithron, and they came to Mahanaim. 2 Sam. 2:29
- And they took up Asahel, and buried him in the sepulchre of his father, which was in Bethlehem. And Joab and his men went all night, and they came to Hebron at break of day. 2 Sam. 2:32
- And to David were sons born in Hebron: his firstborn was Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jizreelitess; 2 Sam. 3:2
- and the sixth, Ithream, of Eglah David's wife. These were born to David in Hebron. 2 Sam. 3:5
- And it came to pass while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner made himself strong for the house of Saul. 2 Sam. 3:6
- And Saul had a concubine whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. And Ishbosheth said to Abner, Why hast thou gone in to my father's concubine? 2 Sam. 3:7
- Then was Abner very wroth for the words of Ishbosheth, and said, Am I a dog's head, I who against Judah do shew kindness this day to the house of Saul thy father, to his brethren, and to his friends, and have not delivered thee into the hand of David, that thou reproachest me this day with the fault of this woman? 2 Sam. 3:8
- So do God to Abner, and more also, if, as Jehovah has sworn to David, I do not so to him; 2 Sam. 3:9
- to translate the kingdom from the house of Saul, and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beer-sheba! 2 Sam. 3:10
- And Abner sent messengers to David on his behalf, saying, Whose is the land? saying also, Make thy covenant with me, and behold, my hand shall be with thee, to turn all Israel to thee. 2 Sam. 3:12
- And he said, Well, I will make a covenant with thee; only I require one thing of thee, that is, Thou shalt not see my face, except thou first bring Michal Saul's daughter, when thou comest to see my face. 2 Sam. 3:13
- And David sent messengers to Ishbosheth Saul's son, saying, Deliver me my wife Michal, whom I espoused to me for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines. 2 Sam. 3:14
- And her husband went with her along weeping behind her to Bahurim. Then said Abner to him, Go, return. And he returned. 2 Sam. 3:16
- Now Abner had communicated with the elders of Israel, saying, Ye sought for David aforetime to be king over you; 2 Sam. 3:17
- And Abner also spoke in the ears of Benjamin; and Abner went also to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel, and that seemed good to the whole house of Benjamin. 2 Sam. 3:19
- So Abner came to David to Hebron, and twenty men with him. And David made Abner and the men that were with him a repast. 2 Sam. 3:20
- And Abner said to David, I will arise and go, and will gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with thee, and that thou mayest reign over all that thy heart desires. And David sent Abner away; and he went in peace. 2 Sam. 3:21
- And Joab and all the host that was with him came; and they told Joab, saying, Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he has sent him away; and he is gone in peace. 2 Sam. 3:23
- Then Joab came to the king, and said, What hast thou done? behold, Abner came to thee; why is it that thou hast sent him away, and he is gone? 2 Sam. 3:24
- Thou knowest Abner the son of Ner, that he came to deceive thee, to know thy going out and thy coming in, and to know all that thou doest. 2 Sam. 3:25
- And when Abner was returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him secretly, and smote him there in the belly, that he died, for the blood of Asahel his brother. 2 Sam. 3:27
- And David said to Joab, and to all the people that were with him, Rend your garments, and gird yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn before Abner. And king David followed the bier. 2 Sam. 3:31

- So Amnon lay down and feigned himself sick; and the king came to see him, and Amnon said to the king, I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come, and make a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand. 2 Sam. 13:6

- And she presented them to him to eat; and he took hold of her, and said to her, Come, lie with me, my sister. 2 Sam. 13:11
- And she said to him, No, my brother, do not humble me; for no such thing is done in Israel: do not this infamy. 2 Sam. 13:12
- And I, whither shall I carry my reproach? and thou wouldest be as one of the infamous in Israel. And now, I pray thee, speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from thee. 2 Sam. 13:13
- But he would not hearken to her voice, and was stronger than she, and humbled her and lay with her. 2 Sam. 13:14
- And Amnon hated her with an exceeding great hatred, for the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, Arise, be gone. 2 Sam. 13:15
- And she said to him, There is no cause for this evil in sending me away, which is greater than the other that thou didst to me. But he would not hearken to her. 2 Sam. 13:16
- And Absalom her brother said to her, Has Amnon thy brother been with thee? and now, my sister, be still: he is thy brother; take not this thing to heart. And Tamar remained, and that desolate, in her brother Absalom's house. 2 Sam. 13:20

- And the king said to Absalom, No, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome to thee. And he urged him, but he would not go; and he blessed him. 2 Sam. 13:25
- And Absalom said, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said to him, Why should he go with thee? 2 Sam. 13:26
- And Absalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and when I say to you, Smite Amnon; then slay him, fear not: have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant. 2 Sam. 13:28
- And the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and they rode each upon his mule and fled. 2 Sam. 13:29
- And it came to pass, while they were in the way, that tidings came to David, saying, Absalom has smitten all the king's sons, and there is not one of them left. 2 Sam. 13:30

- And the king said to the woman, Go to thy house, and I will give charge concerning thee. 2 Sam. 14:8

- Then she said, I pray thee, let the king remember Jehovah thy God, that thou wouldest not suffer the revengers of blood to destroy any more, lest they cut off my son. And he said, As Jehovah liveth, there shall not one hair of thy son fall to the earth. 2 Sam. 14:11
- And the woman said, Let thy bondmaid, I pray thee, speak a word to my lord the king. And he said, Speak. 2 Sam. 14:12
- And now that I am come to speak of this thing to my lord the king, it is because the people have made me afraid; and thy bondmaid said, I will now speak to the king; perhaps the king will perform the request of his handmaid. 2 Sam. 14:15
- For the king will hear, to deliver his handmaid out of the hand of the man that would destroy me and my son together out of the inheritance of God. 2 Sam. 14:16
- And thy bondmaid said, Let the word of my lord the king now be comfortable; for as an angel of God, so is my lord the king to discern good and bad; and Jehovah thy God will be with thee. 2 Sam. 14:17
- And the king answered and said to the woman, Hide not from me, I pray thee, the thing that I shall ask thee. And the woman said, Let my lord the king now speak. 2 Sam. 14:18
- And the king said, Is the hand of Joab with thee in all this? And the woman answered and said, As thy soul liveth, my lord, O king, there is no turning to the right hand or to the left from aught that my lord the king has spoken; for thy servant Joab, he bade me, and he put all these words into the mouth of thy bondmaid: 2 Sam. 14:19
- in order to turn the appearance of the thing has thy servant Joab done this thing; but my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of an angel of God, to know all that is in the earth. 2 Sam. 14:20
- And the king said to Joab, Behold now, I have done this thing: so go, bring back the young man Absalom. 2 Sam. 14:21
- And Joab fell to the ground on his face and bowed himself, and blessed the king; and Joab said, To-day thy servant knows that I have found favour in thy sight, my lord, O king, in that the king has fulfilled the request of his servant. 2 Sam. 14:22
- And Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem. 2 Sam. 14:23
- And the king said, Let him turn to his own house, and let him not see my face. And Absalom withdrew to his own house, and saw not the king's face. 2 Sam. 14:24
- But in all Israel there was none to be so much praised as Absalom for his beauty: from the sole of his foot even to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him. 2 Sam. 14:25
- And to Absalom there were born three sons, and one daughter, whose name was Tamar: she was a woman of a beautiful countenance. 2 Sam. 14:27
- Then Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king; but he would not come to him; and he sent again the second time, but he would not come. 2 Sam. 14:29
- Then he said to his servants, See, Joab's allotment is near mine and he has barley there: go and set it on fire. And Absalom's servants set the allotment on fire. 2 Sam. 14:30
- Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom to his house, and said to him, Why have thy servants set my allotment on fire? 2 Sam. 14:31
- And Absalom said to Joab, Behold, I sent to thee, saying, Come hither, that I may send thee to the king, to say, Why am I come from Geshur? it would have been better for me to be there still. And now let me see the king's face; and if there be iniquity in me, let him slay me. 2 Sam. 14:32
- And Joab came to the king, and told him. And he called Absalom, and he came to the king, and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king; and the king kissed Absalom. 2 Sam. 14:33
- And it came to pass after this, that Absalom prepared for himself chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him. 2 Sam. 15:1
- And Absalom rose early, and stood beside the way of the gate; and it was so, that when any man who had a controversy had to come to the king for judgment, then Absalom called him, and said, Of what city art thou? And he said, Thy servant is of one of the tribes of Israel. 2 Sam. 15:2
- And Absalom said to him, See, thy matters are good and right; but there is no man to hear thee appointed by the king. 2 Sam. 15:3
- And Absalom said, Oh that I were made judge in the land, that every man who has any controversy and cause might come to me, and I would do him justice! 2 Sam. 15:4
- And it was so, that when any man came near to do him obeisance, he put forth his hand, and took him, and kissed him. 2 Sam. 15:5
- And in this manner did Absalom to all Israel that came to the king for judgment; and Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel. 2 Sam. 15:6
- And it came to pass at the end of forty years, that Absalom said to the king, I pray thee, let me go and pay in Hebron my vow which I have vowed to Jehovah. 2 Sam. 15:7
- For thy servant vowed a vow while I abode in Geshur in Syria, saying, If Jehovah shall bring me again indeed to Jerusalem, then I will serve Jehovah. 2 Sam. 15:8
- And the king said to him, Go in peace. And he rose up and went to Hebron. 2 Sam. 15:9
- And there came one to David who reported saying, The hearts of the men of Israel are after Absalom. 2 Sam. 15:13
- And David said to all his servants that were with him at Jerusalem, Rise up and let us flee; for we shall not else escape from Absalom. Be quick to depart, lest he overtake us quickly, and bring evil upon us, and smite the city with the edge of the sword. 2 Sam. 15:14
- And the king's servants said to the king, Behold, thy servants will do whatever my lord the king shall choose. 2 Sam. 15:15
- And the king went forth, and all his household after him, and the king left ten women, concubines, to keep the house. 2 Sam. 15:16
- And the king said to Ittai the Gittite, Why dost thou also go with us? return to thy place, and abide with the king; for thou art a foreigner, and besides, thou hast emigrated to the place where thou dwellest. 2 Sam. 15:19
- And David said to Ittai, Go and pass over. And Ittai the Gittite passed over, and all his men, and all the little ones that were with him. 2 Sam. 15:22
- And the king said to Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city. If I shall find favour in the eyes of Jehovah, he will bring me again, and shew me it, and its habitation. 2 Sam. 15:25

- And the king said to Zadok the priest, Thou art the seer: return into the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz thy son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar. 2 Sam. 15:27
- See, I will stop in the plains of the desert, until there come word from you to inform me. 2 Sam. 15:28
- And Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God again to Jerusalem; and they abode there. 2 Sam. 15:29
- And it came to pass, when David had come to the summit, where he worshipped God, that behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat rent, and earth upon his head. 2 Sam. 15:32
- And David said to him, If thou passest on with me, thou wilt be a burden to me; 2 Sam. 15:33
- but if thou return to the city, and say to Absalom, I will be thy servant, O king; as I have been thy father's servant hitherto, so now will I be thy servant; then mayest thou for me defeat the counsel of Ahithophel. 2 Sam. 15:34
- And hast thou not there with thee Zadok and Abiathar the priests? and it shall be, that whatsoever thing thou shalt hear out of the king's house, thou shalt tell it to Zadok and Abiathar the priests. 2 Sam. 15:35
- Behold, they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz Zadok's son, and Jonathan Abiathar's son; and by them ye shall send to me everything that ye shall hear. 2 Sam. 15:36
- And the king said to Ziba, What meanest thou by these? And Ziba said, The asses are for the king's household to ride on; and the bread and summer fruits for the young men to eat; and the wine, that such as are faint in the wilderness may drink. 2 Sam. 16:2
- And the king said, And where is thy master's son? And Ziba said to the king, Behold, he abides at Jerusalem; for he said, To-day shall the house of Israel restore me the kingdom of my father. 2 Sam. 16:3
- And the king said to Ziba, Behold, thine are all that pertained to Mephibosheth. And Ziba said, I humbly bow myself: may I find favour in thy sight, my lord, O king. 2 Sam. 16:4

- And the king said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? so let him curse, for Jehovah has said to him, Curse David! Who shall then say, Why dost thou so? 2 Sam. 16:10
- And David said to Abishai, and to all his servants, Behold, my son, who came forth of my bowels, seeks my life: how much more now a Benjaminite? let him alone and let him curse; for Jehovah has bidden him. 2 Sam. 16:11
- Now Absalom, and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him. 2 Sam. 16:15
- And it came to pass, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, Long live the king! Long live the king! 2 Sam. 16:16
- And Absalom said to Hushai, Is this thy kindness to thy friend? why didst thou not go with thy friend? 2 Sam. 16:17
- And Hushai said to Absalom, No; but whom Jehovah, and this people, and all the men of Israel choose, his will I be, and with him will I abide. 2 Sam. 16:18
- And Absalom said to Ahithophel, Give counsel among you what we shall do. 2 Sam. 16:20
- And Ahithophel said to Absalom, Go in to thy father's concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel shall hear that thou art become odious with thy father; and the hands of all that are with thee shall be strong. 2 Sam. 16:21
- So they spread a tent for Absalom upon the roof; and Absalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel. 2 Sam. 16:22
- And Ahithophel said to Absalom, Let me, I pray, choose out twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue after David to-night; 2 Sam. 17:1

- And Hushai came to Absalom, and Absalom spoke to him saying, Ahithophel has spoken after this manner: shall we carry out his word? If not, speak thou. 2 Sam. 17:6
- And Hushai said to Absalom, The counsel that Ahithophel has given this time is not good. 2 Sam. 17:7
- Behold, he is hid now in some pit, or some such place; and it will come to pass, when some of them fall at the first, whoever heareth it will say, There has been slaughter among the people that follow Absalom, 2 Sam. 17:9
- But I counsel that all Israel be speedily gathered to thee, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, as the sand that is by the sea for multitude; and that thou go to battle in thine own person. 2 Sam. 17:11
- And if he withdraw into a city, then shall all Israel bring ropes to that city, and we will draw it into the torrent, until there be not one small stone found there. 2 Sam. 17:13
- And Absalom and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Hushai the Archite is better than the counsel of Ahithophel. And Jehovah had appointed to defeat the good counsel of Ahithophel, in order that Jehovah might bring evil upon Absalom. 2 Sam. 17:14
- And Hushai said to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, Thus and thus did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled. 2 Sam. 17:15

- And Absalom's servants came to the woman to the house, and said, Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan? And the woman said to them, They have gone over the brook of water. And they sought and could not find them, and returned to Jerusalem. 2 Sam. 17:20
- And it came to pass after they had departed, that they came up out of the well, and went and told king David; and they said to David, Arise and pass quickly over the water; for thus has Ahithophel counselled against you. 2 Sam. 17:21
- And when Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his ass, and arose and went to his house, to his city, and gave charge to his household, and hanged himself, and he died; and he was buried in the sepulchre of his father. 2 Sam. 17:23

- And as soon as David came to Mahanaim, Shobi the son of Nahash of Rabbah of the children of Ammon, and Machir the son of Ammiel of Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite of Rogelim, 2 Sam. 17:27
- and honey, and cream, and sheep, and cheese of kine to David, and to the people that were with him, to eat; for they said, The people is hungry, and weary, and thirsty in the wilderness. 2 Sam. 17:29
- And David sent forth the people, a third part under the hand of Joab, and a third part under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and a third part under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said to the people, I will surely go forth with you myself also. 2 Sam. 18:2
- And the king said to them, I will do what is good in your sight. And the king stood by the gate-side, and all the people came out by hundreds and by thousands. 2 Sam. 18:4
- And Joab said to the man that told him, And behold, thou sawest him, and why didst thou not smite him there to the ground? and I would have given thee ten silver pieces and a girdle. 2 Sam. 18:11
- And the man said to Joab, Though I should receive a thousand silver pieces in my hand, yet would I not put forth my hand against the king's son; for in our hearing the king charged thee and Abishai and Ittai, saying, Take care, whoever it be of you, of the young man Absalom. 2 Sam. 18:12
- And they took Absalom, and cast him into a great pit in the wood, and raised a very great heap of stones upon him. And all Israel fled every one to his tent. 2 Sam. 18:17

- And Joab said to him, Thou shalt not be a bearer of news to-day, but thou shalt carry the news another day; but to-day thou shalt carry no news, because the king's son is dead. 2 Sam. 18:20
- Then said Joab to the Cushite, Go, tell the king what thou hast seen. And the Cushite bowed himself to Joab, and ran. 2 Sam. 18:21
- And Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said yet again to Joab, Come what may, let me, I pray thee, also run after the Cushite. And Joab said, Why wilt thou run, my son, seeing that there is no news suited to thee? 2 Sam. 18:22
- -- But, come what may, let me run. And he said to him, Run. And Ahimaaz ran by the way of the plain, and outstripped the Cushite. 2 Sam. 18:23
- And David sat between the two gates; and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate, on to the wall, and lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man running alone. 2 Sam. 18:24
- And the watchman saw another man running; and the watchman called to the porter and said, Behold a man running alone. And the king said, He also is a bearer of news. 2 Sam. 18:26
- And Ahimaaz called and said to the king, Peace! And he fell down to the earth on his face before the king, and said, Blessed be Jehovah thy God, who has delivered up the men that lifted up their hand against my lord the king. 2 Sam. 18:28
- And the king said to the Cushite, Is it well with the young man Absalom? And the Cushite said, The enemies of my lord the king, and all that rise against thee for evil, be as that young man. 2 Sam. 18:32
- And the king was much moved, and went up to the upper chamber of the gate, and wept; and as he went, he said thus: O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! would God I had died in thy stead, O Absalom, my son, my son! 2 Sam. 18:33
- And Joab came into the house to the king, and said, Thou hast put to shame this day the faces of all thy servants who have this day saved thy life, and the lives of thy sons and of thy daughters, and the lives of thy wives and the lives of thy concubines; 2 Sam. 19:5
- in that thou lovest them that hate thee, and hatest those that love thee. For thou hast declared this day, that neither princes nor servants are anything to thee: for to-day I perceive, that if Absalom had lived, and all we had died to-day, then it would have been right in thine eyes. 2 Sam. 19:6
- But now arise, go forth, and speak consolingly to thy servants; for I swear by Jehovah, if thou go not forth, there will not tarry one with thee this night; and that would be worse to thee than all the evil that has befallen thee from thy youth until now. 2 Sam. 19:7
- Then the king arose, and sat in the gate. And they told all the people, saying, Behold, the king is sitting in the gate. And all the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his tent. 2 Sam. 19:8

- And king David sent to Zadok and to Abiathar the priests, saying, Speak to the elders of Judah saying, Why are ye the last to bring the king back to his house? seeing the speech of all Israel is come to the king, to his house. 2 Sam. 19:11
- Ye are my brethren, ye are my bone and my flesh; and why will ye be the last to bring back the king? 2 Sam. 19:12
- And say to Amasa, Art thou not my bone and my flesh? God do so to me and more also, if thou be not captain of the host before me continually instead of Joab. 2 Sam. 19:13
- And he bowed the heart of all the men of Judah as of one man; and they sent to the king, Return, thou and all thy servants. 2 Sam. 19:14

- And he said to the king, Let not my lord impute iniquity to me, neither do thou remember that which thy servant did perversely the day that my lord the king went out of Jerusalem, that the king should take it to heart. 2 Sam. 19:19
- For thy servant knows that I have sinned; and behold, I am come the first this day of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king. 2 Sam. 19:20
- And Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, Should not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed Jehovah's anointed? 2 Sam. 19:21
- And David said, What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah, that ye should this day be adversaries to me? Should there any man be put to death this day in Israel? for do not I know that I am this day king over Israel? 2 Sam. 19:22
- And the king said to Shimei, Thou shalt not die. And the king swore to him. 2 Sam. 19:23
- And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king. Now he had neither washed his feet, nor trimmed his beard, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came again in peace. 2 Sam. 19:24
- And as soon as Jerusalem came to meet the king, the king said to him, Why didst thou not go with me, Mephibosheth? 2 Sam. 19:25
- And he has slandered thy servant to my lord the king; but my lord the king is as an angel of God; do therefore what is good in thy sight. 2 Sam. 19:27
- For all my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king; and thou didst set thy servant among them that eat at thine own table. What further right therefore have I? and for what should I cry any more to the king? 2 Sam. 19:28
- And the king said to him, Why speakest thou any more of thy matters? I have said, Thou and Ziba divide the land. 2 Sam. 19:29

- And Barzillai said to the king, How many are the days of the years of my life, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem? 2 Sam. 19:34
- I am this day eighty years old: can I discern between good and bad? can thy servant taste what I eat and what I drink? can I hear any more the voice of singing men and singing women? and why should thy servant be yet a burden to my lord the king? 2 Sam. 19:35
- Thy servant will go a little way over the Jordan with the king; and why should the king recompense it to me with this reward? 2 Sam. 19:36
- Let thy servant, I pray thee, turn back again, that I may die in mine own city, by the grave of my father and of my mother. But behold thy servant Chimham: let him go over with my lord the king; and do to him what seems good to thee. 2 Sam. 19:37
- And the king said, Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do to him that which seems good to thee; and whatsoever thou shalt require of me, that will I do for thee. 2 Sam. 19:38
- And all the people went over the Jordan; and the king went over; and the king kissed Barzillai, and blessed him; and he returned to his own place. 2 Sam. 19:39
- And the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him; and all the people of Judah conducted the king, and also half the people of Israel. 2 Sam. 19:40

- And all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, Because the king is near of kin to me; and why then are ye angry for this matter? have we eaten anything which came from the king, or has he given us any present? 2 Sam. 19:42
- And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah and said, I have ten parts in the king and I have also more right in David than thou; and why didst thou slight me? and was not my advice the first, to bring back my king? And the words of the men of Judah were harsher than the words of the men of Israel. 2 Sam. 19:43
- And there happened to be there a man of Belial, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjaminite; and he blew a trumpet, and said, We have no portion in David, neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to his tents, Israel. 2 Sam. 20:1
- Then all the men of Israel went up from after David, following Sheba the son of Bichri. But the men of Judah clave to their king, from the Jordan even to Jerusalem. 2 Sam. 20:2
- And David came to his house at Jerusalem; and the king took the ten women, concubines, whom he had left to keep the house, and put them in a house of confinement and maintained them, but did not go in to them. So they were shut up unto the day of their death, living in widowhood. 2 Sam. 20:3
- And the king said to Amasa, Call me the men of Judah together within three days, and do thou attend here. 2 Sam. 20:4
- So Amasa went to call together the men of Judah; but he delayed longer than the set time which he had appointed him. 2 Sam. 20:5
- And David said to Abishai, Now shall Sheba the son of Bichri do us more harm than did Absalom. Take thou thy lord's servants, and pursue after him, lest he get him fortified cities and escape our sight. 2 Sam. 20:6
- And there went out after him Joab's men, and the Cherethites, and the Pelethites, and all the mighty men; and they went out of Jerusalem, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri. 2 Sam. 20:7
- And Joab said to Amasa, Art thou well, my brother? And Joab took Amasa by the beard with the right hand to kiss him. 2 Sam. 20:9
- And Amasa had taken no notice of the sword that was in Joab's hand: so he smote him with it in the belly and shed out his bowels to the ground, and struck him not again; and he died. And Joab and Abishai his brother pursued after Sheba the son of Bichri. 2 Sam. 20:10
- When he was removed out of the highway, all the people went on after Joab, to pursue after Sheba the son of Bichri, 2 Sam. 20:13
- who went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel, and to Beth-Maacah, and all the Berim; and they gathered together, and went also after him. 2 Sam. 20:14
- And they came and besieged him in Abel-Beth-Maacah, and they cast up a bank against the city, and it was raised in the trench; and all the people that were with Joab sapped the wall, to throw it down. 2 Sam. 20:15
- And he came near to her; and the woman said, Art thou Joab? And he said, I am he. And she said to him, Listen to the words of thy handmaid. And he said, I am listening. 2 Sam. 20:17
- And she spoke saying, They were wont to speak in old time saying, Just inquire in Abel; and so they ended. 2 Sam. 20:18
- I am peaceable and faithful in Israel: thou seekest to destroy a city and a mother in Israel. Why wilt thou swallow up the inheritance of Jehovah? 2 Sam. 20:19
- The matter is not so; but a man of mount Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri by name, has lifted up his hand against the king, against David: give up him only, and I will depart from the city. And the woman said to Joab, Behold, his head shall be thrown to thee over the wall. 2 Sam. 20:21
- Then the woman went to all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and cast it to Joab. And he blew a trumpet, and they dispersed from the city, every man to his tent. And Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king. 2 Sam. 20:22
- And the king called the Gibeonites, and spoke to them. (Now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remainder of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn to them; and Saul sought to smite them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah.) 2 Sam. 21:2
- And David said to the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? and with what shall I make atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of Jehovah? 2 Sam. 21:3

- And he spoke to his sons saying, Saddle me the ass; and they saddled it. 1 Ki. 13:27

- Then stood up Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brethren the priests, and Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and his brethren, and built the altar of the God of Israel, to offer up burnt-offerings on it, as it is written in the law of Moses the man of God. Ezra 3:2
- And they set the altar on its base; for fear was upon them because of the people of the countries; and they offered up burnt-offerings on it to Jehovah, the morning and evening burnt-offerings. Ezra 3:3
- And they held the feast of tabernacles as it is written, and offered daily burnt-offerings by number, according to the ordinance, as the duty of every day required; Ezra 3:4
- and afterwards the continual burnt-offering, and those of the new moons, and of all the set feasts of Jehovah that were consecrated, and of every one that willingly offered a voluntary offering to Jehovah. Ezra 3:5
- From the first day of the seventh month they began to offer up burnt-offerings to Jehovah. But the foundation of the temple of Jehovah was not yet laid. Ezra 3:6
- And they gave money to the masons and to the carpenters; and meat and drink and oil to the Zidonians and to the Tyrians, to bring cedar-trees from Lebanon to the sea at Joppa, according to the grant that they had of Cyrus king of Persia. Ezra 3:7
- And in the second year of their coming to the house of God at Jerusalem, in the second month, began Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and the remnant of their brethren the priests and the Levites, and all they that had come out of the captivity to Jerusalem; and they appointed the Levites, from twenty years old and upward, to superintend the work of the house of Jehovah. Ezra 3:8
- And Jeshua stood up, his sons and his brethren, Kadmiel and his sons, the sons of Judah, as one man, to superintend the workmen in the house of God; also the sons of Henadad, their sons and their brethren, the Levites. Ezra 3:9
- And when the builders laid the foundation of the temple of Jehovah, they set the priests in their apparel, with trumpets, and the Levites the sons of Asaph, with cymbals, to praise Jehovah according to the directions of David king of Israel. Ezra 3:10
- And they sang alternately together in praising and giving thanks to Jehovah: For he is good, for his loving-kindness endureth for ever toward Israel. And all the people shouted with a great shout to the praise of Jehovah, because the foundation of the house of Jehovah was laid. Ezra 3:11
- And the adversaries of Judah and Benjamin heard that the children of the captivity were building the temple to Jehovah the God of Israel; Ezra 4:1
- and they came to Zerubbabel and to the chief fathers, and said to them, We would build with you; for we seek your God, as ye; and we have sacrificed to him since the days of Esar-haddon king of Assyria, who brought us up hither. Ezra 4:2
- But Zerubbabel and Jeshua and the rest of the chief fathers of Israel said to them, Ye have nothing to do with us to build a house to our God, but we alone will build to Jehovah the God of Israel, as king Cyrus, the king of Persia, has commanded us. Ezra 4:3
- and they hired counsellors against them, to frustrate their purpose, all the days of Cyrus king of Persia, even until the reign of Darius king of Persia. Ezra 4:5
- And in the days of Artaxerxes, Bishlam, Mithredath, Tabeel, and the rest of his companions, wrote to Artaxerxes king of Persia; and the writing of the letter was written in Aramaic, and interpreted in Aramaic. Ezra 4:7
- Rehum the chancellor and Shimshai the scribe wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artaxerxes the king after this sort: Ezra 4:8
- This is the copy of the letter that they sent to him: To Artaxerxes the king: Thy servants the men on this side the river, and so forth. Ezra 4:11
- Be it known to the king that the Jews who came up from thee unto us have come to Jerusalem; they are building the rebellious and the bad city, and they complete the walls and join up the foundations. Ezra 4:12
- Be it known therefore unto the king, that, if this city be built and the walls be completed, they will not pay tribute, tax, and toll, and in the end it will bring damage to the kings. Ezra 4:13
- Now, since we eat the salt of the palace, and it is not right for us to see the king's injury, therefore have we sent and informed the king; Ezra 4:14
- that search may be made in the book of the annals of thy fathers: so shalt thou find in the book of the annals and know that this city is a rebellious city, which has done damage to kings and provinces, and that they have raised sedition within the same of old time, for which cause this city was destroyed. Ezra 4:15
- The king sent an answer to Rehum the chancellor, and Shimshai the scribe, and the rest of their companions that dwell in Samaria, and the other places beyond the river: Peace, and so forth. Ezra 4:17
- The letter that ye sent to us has been read before me distinctly. Ezra 4:18
- And there have been mighty kings over Jerusalem, who have ruled over all beyond the river; and tribute, tax, and toll were paid to them. Ezra 4:20
- Now give order to make these men to cease, and that this city be not built, until the order shall be given from me; Ezra 4:21
- and take heed that ye fail not to do this: why should harm grow to the damage of the kings? Ezra 4:22
- As soon as the copy of king Artaxerxes' letter was read before Rehum, and Shimshai the scribe, and their companions, they went up in haste to Jerusalem to the Jews, and made them cease by force and power. Ezra 4:23
- Now the prophets, Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo, prophesied to the Jews that were in Judah and Jerusalem; in the name of the God of Israel did they prophesy to them. Ezra 5:1
- Then rose up Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and began to build the house of God which is at Jerusalem; and with them were the prophets of God, who helped them. Ezra 5:2
- At that time came to them Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shethar-boznai, and their companions, and said thus to them: Who gave you orders to build this house and to complete this wall? Ezra 5:3
- And they said to them after this manner: What are the names of the men that build this building? Ezra 5:4
- But the eye of their God was upon the elders of the Jews, and they did not make them cease till the matter came to Darius; and then they returned answer by letter concerning it. Ezra 5:5
- The copy of the letter that Tatnai, governor on this side the river, and Shethar-boznai, and his companions the Apharsachites, who were on this side the river, sent to Darius the king. Ezra 5:6
- They sent a report to him in which was written thus: To Darius the king, all peace! Ezra 5:7
- Be it known to the king that we went into the province of Judah, to the house of the great God, which is being built with great stones, and timber is laid in the walls, and this work is being carried on with diligence, and prospers in their hand. Ezra 5:8
- Then asked we those elders: thus we said to them, Who gave you orders to build this house and to complete this wall? Ezra 5:9
- We asked their names also, to inform thee, that we might write the names of the men that were the chief of them. Ezra 5:10
- But after that our fathers had provoked the God of the heavens to wrath, he gave them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, the Chaldean, and he destroyed this house, and carried the people away unto Babylon. Ezra 5:12
- But in the first year of Cyrus king of Babylon, king Cyrus gave orders to build this house of God. Ezra 5:13
- And the vessels also of gold and silver of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that was at Jerusalem and brought into the temple of Babylon, those did king Cyrus take out of the temple of Babylon, and they were delivered to one Sheshbazzar by name, whom he had appointed governor. Ezra 5:14
- And he said to him, Take these vessels, go, carry them into the temple that is at Jerusalem, and let the house of God be built in its place. Ezra 5:15
- And now, if it seem good to the king, let search be made in the king's treasure-house, which is there at Babylon, whether it be so, that orders were given by king Cyrus to build this house of God at Jerusalem; and let the king send his pleasure to us concerning this matter. Ezra 5:17
- and also let the golden and silver vessels of the house of God, which Nebuchadnezzar took out of the temple that is at Jerusalem and brought to Babylon, be restored and brought again to the temple that is at Jerusalem, in their place; and thou shalt put them in the house of God. Ezra 6:5
- Moreover, I give orders what ye shall do to these elders of the Jews, for the building of this house of God: that of the king's goods, of the tribute beyond the river, expenses be diligently given to these men, that they be not hindered. Ezra 6:8
- And that which they have need of, both young bullocks and rams and lambs, for the burnt-offerings to the God of the heavens, wheat, salt, wine, and oil, according to the appointment of the priests that are at Jerusalem, let it be given them day by day without fail; Ezra 6:9
- that they may present sweet odours to the God of the heavens, and pray for the life of the king and of his sons. Ezra 6:10
- And the God that has caused his name to dwell there overthrow every king and people that shall put forth their hand to alter or to destroy this house of God which is at Jerusalem. I Darius have given this order; let it be done diligently. Ezra 6:12
- And the elders of the Jews built; and they prospered through the prophesying of Haggai the prophet and Zechariah the son of Iddo. And they built and completed it according to the commandment of the God of Israel, and according to the commandment of Cyrus, and Darius, and Artaxerxes king of Persia. Ezra 6:14
- and they presented at the dedication of this house of God a hundred bullocks, two hundred rams, four hundred lambs, and for a sin-offering for all Israel, twelve he-goats, according to the number of the tribes of Israel. Ezra 6:17
- And the children of Israel that were come back out of captivity, and all such as had separated themselves to them from the filthiness of the nations of the land, to seek Jehovah the God of Israel, did eat; Ezra 6:21
- and they kept the feast of unleavened bread seven days with joy; for Jehovah had made them joyful, and turned the heart of the king of Assyria to them, to strengthen their hands in the work of the house of God, the God of Israel. Ezra 6:22
- -- this Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which Jehovah the God of Israel had given. And the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of Jehovah his God upon him. Ezra 7:6
- (And there went up some of the children of Israel, and of the priests, and the Levites, and the singers, and the doorkeepers, and the Nethinim, to Jerusalem, in the seventh year of Artaxerxes the king.) Ezra 7:7

- For upon the first of the first month the project of going up from Babylon was determined on, and on the first of the fifth month he came to Jerusalem, according to the good hand of his God upon him. Ezra 7:9
- For Ezra had directed his heart to seek the law of Jehovah and to do it, and to teach in Israel the statutes and the ordinances. Ezra 7:10
- And this is the copy of the letter that king Artaxerxes gave to Ezra the priest, the scribe, a scribe of the words of the commandments of Jehovah, and of his statutes to Israel: Ezra 7:11
- Artaxerxes, king of kings, to Ezra the priest, an accomplished scribe of the law of the God of the heavens, and so forth. Ezra 7:12
- I have given orders that all they of the people of Israel, and of their priests and the Levites, in my realm, who are disposed to go to Jerusalem, go with thee. Ezra 7:13
- Because thou art sent by the king, and by his seven counsellors, to inquire concerning Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of thy God which is in thy hand; Ezra 7:14
- and to carry the silver and gold which the king and his counsellors have freely offered to the God of Israel, whose habitation is at Jerusalem, Ezra 7:15
- And whatever shall seem good to thee and to thy brethren to do with the rest of the silver and the gold, that do according to the will of your God. Ezra 7:18
- And whatever more shall be needful for the house of thy God which thou shalt have occasion to bestow, bestow it out of the king's treasure house. Ezra 7:20
- And I, I Artaxerxes the king, do give orders to all the treasurers that are beyond the river, that whatever Ezra the priest and scribe of the law of the God of the heavens shall require of you, it be done diligently, Ezra 7:21
- unto a hundred talents of silver, and to a hundred measures of wheat, and to a hundred baths of wine, and to a hundred baths of oil, and salt without prescribing how much. Ezra 7:22
- Also we inform you, as regards all the priests and Levites, singers, doorkeepers, Nethinim, and ministers of this house of God, it shall not be lawful to impose tribute, tax, and toll upon them. Ezra 7:24
- And whosoever will not do the law of thy God and the law of the king, let judgment be executed diligently upon him, whether unto death, or to banishment, or to confiscation of goods, or to imprisonment. Ezra 7:26
- Blessed be Jehovah the God of our fathers, who has put such a thing as this in the king's heart, to beautify the house of Jehovah which is at Jerusalem; Ezra 7:27
- and has extended mercy to me before the king and his counsellors, and before all the king's mighty princes. And I was strengthened, as the hand of Jehovah my God was upon me; and I gathered together out of Israel chief men to go up with me. Ezra 7:28
- And I gathered them together at the river that runs to Ahava; and there we encamped three days; and I surveyed the people and the priests, and found none of the sons of Levi there. Ezra 8:15
- And I gave them a commission to Iddo the chief, at the place Casiphia, and I put words in their mouths to say to Iddo and his brethren the Nethinim, at the place Casiphia, that they should bring to us ministers for the house of our God. Ezra 8:17
- And I proclaimed a fast there, at the river Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek of him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our substance. Ezra 8:21
- For I was ashamed to require of the king a band of soldiers and horsemen to help us against the enemy in the way; for we had spoken to the king saying, The hand of our God is upon all them for good that seek him; but his power and his anger is against all them that forsake him. Ezra 8:22
- and I weighed to them the silver and the gold and the vessels, the heave-offering for the house of our God, which the king and his counsellors and his princes, and all Israel present, had offered. Ezra 8:25
- And I said to them, Ye are holy unto Jehovah; the vessels also are holy; and the silver and the gold is a voluntary offering to Jehovah the God of your fathers. Ezra 8:28
- And the priests and the Levites received by weight the silver and the gold and the vessels, to bring them to Jerusalem unto the house of our God. Ezra 8:30
- And we departed from the river Ahava on the twelfth of the first month, to go to Jerusalem; and the hand of our God was upon us, and he delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and of such as lay in wait by the way. Ezra 8:31
- And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days. Ezra 8:32
- The children of those that had been carried away, who had come out of the captivity, presented burnt-offerings to the God of Israel, twelve bullocks for all Israel, ninety-six rams, seventy-seven lambs, twelve he-goats for a sin-offering: all for a burnt-offering to Jehovah. Ezra 8:35
- And they delivered the king's edicts to the king's satraps, and to the governors on this side the river. And they furthered the people and the house of God. Ezra 8:36
- Now when these things were completed, the princes came to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the peoples of the lands, according to their abominations, even of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites; Ezra 9:1
- Then were assembled to me every one that trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of the unfaithfulness of those that had been carried away; and I sat overwhelmed until the evening oblation. Ezra 9:4
- And at the evening oblation I arose up from my humiliation; and with my mantle and my garment rent, I fell on my knees, and spread out my hands to Jehovah my God, Ezra 9:5
- and said: O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to thee, my God; for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up to the heavens. Ezra 9:6
- Since the days of our fathers, we have been in great trespass to this day; and for our iniquities we, our kings, our priests, have been given into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, and to captivity, and to spoil, and to confusion of face, as it is this day. Ezra 9:7
- And now for a little space there hath been favour from Jehovah our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage. Ezra 9:8
- For we are bondmen; yet our God hath not forsaken us in our bondage, but hath extended mercy unto us before the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God and to repair the ruins thereof, and to give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem. Ezra 9:9
- which thou hast commanded by thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to possess it, is an unclean land through the filthiness of the peoples of the lands, through their abominations with which they have filled it from one end to another through their uncleanness. Ezra 9:11
- Now therefore give not your daughters to their sons, neither take their daughters to your sons, nor seek their peace or their prosperity for ever; that ye may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children for ever. Ezra 9:12
- should we again break thy commandments, and join in affinity with the peoples of these abominations? wouldest thou not be angry with us till thou hadst consumed us, so that there should be no remnant nor any to escape? Ezra 9:14
- And while Ezra prayed, and made confession, weeping and falling down before the house of God, there were gathered to him out of Israel a very great congregation of men and women and children; for the people wept very much. Ezra 10:1
- And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, answered and said to Ezra, We have acted unfaithfully toward our God, and have taken foreign wives of the peoples of the land; yet now there is hope for Israel concerning this thing. Ezra 10:2
- And now let us make a covenant with our God to put away all the wives, and such as are born of them, according to the counsel of my lord, and of those that tremble at the commandments of our God; and let it be done according to the law. Ezra 10:3
- Then Ezra arose, and made the chiefs of the priests, of the Levites, and of all Israel, to swear that they would do according to this word. And they swore. Ezra 10:5
- And they made proclamation in Judah and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should gather themselves together unto Jerusalem; Ezra 10:7
- and that whosoever would not come within three days, according to the counsel of the princes and the elders, all his substance should be confiscated, and himself separated from the congregation of those that had been carried away. Ezra 10:8
- And Ezra the priest stood up and said to them, Ye have acted unfaithfully, and have taken foreign wives, to increase the trespass of Israel. Ezra 10:10
- And now make confession to Jehovah the God of your fathers, and do his pleasure, and separate yourselves from the peoples of the land, and from the foreign wives. Ezra 10:11
- And the whole congregation answered and said with a loud voice, Yes, it is for us to do according to thy words. Ezra 10:12
- But the people are many, and it is a time of pouring rain, and it is not possible to stand without: neither is this a work for one day or two; for we are many that have transgressed in this thing. Ezra 10:13
- And the children of the captivity did so. And Ezra the priest and certain of the chief fathers were separated according to their fathers' houses, and all of them expressed by name; and they sat down on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter. Ezra 10:16
- And they gave their hand to send away their wives; and they offered a ram of the flock, as trespass-offering for their guilt. Ezra 10:19
- The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. And it came to pass in the month Chislev, in the twentieth year, as I was in Shushan the fortress, Neh. 1:1
- And they said to me, Those who remain, that are left of the captivity there in the province, are in great affliction and reproach; and the wall of Jerusalem is in ruins, and its gates are burned with fire. Neh. 1:3
- And it came to pass, when I heard these words, that I sat and wept, and mourned for days, and fasted, and prayed before the God of the heavens, Neh. 1:4
- Let thine ear now be attentive, and thine eyes open, to hear the prayer of thy servant, which I pray before thee at this time, day and night, for the children of Israel thy servants, confessing the sins of the children of Israel, which we have sinned against thee: both I and my father's house have sinned. Neh. 1:6
- but if ye return to me, and keep my commandments and do them, though there were of you cast out unto the uttermost part of the heavens, yet will I gather them from thence, and will bring them unto the place that I have chosen to set my name there. Neh. 1:9
- O Lord, I beseech thee, let now thine ear be attentive to the prayer of thy servant, and to the prayer of thy servants who delight to fear thy name; and prosper, I pray thee, thy servant this day, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man. Now I was the king's cupbearer. Neh. 1:11
- And it came to pass in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that wine was before him, and I took up the wine and gave it to the king. Now, I had never been sad in his presence. Neh. 2:1
- And the king said to me, Why is thy face sad, seeing thou art not sick? this is nothing else but sadness of heart. And I was very sore afraid. Neh. 2:2
- And I said to the king, Let the king live for ever! Why should not my countenance be sad, when the city, the place of my fathers' sepulchres, lies waste, and its gates are consumed with fire? Neh. 2:3
- And the king said to me, For what dost thou make request? So I prayed to the God of the heavens. Neh. 2:4
- And I said to the king, If it please the king, and if thy servant have found favour in thy sight, that thou wouldest send me to Judah, to the city of my fathers' sepulchres, that I may build it. Neh. 2:5
- And the king said to me -- the queen also sitting by him, -- For how long shall thy journey be, and when wilt thou return? And it pleased the king to send me; and I set him a time. Neh. 2:6
- And I said to the king, If it please the king, let letters be given me to the governors beyond the river, that they may set me forward till I come into Judah; Neh. 2:7
- and a letter to Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the palace which appertains to the house, and for the wall of the city, and for the house that I shall enter into. And the king granted me, according to the good hand of my God upon me. Neh. 2:8
- And I came to the governors beyond the river, and gave them the king's letters. Now the king had sent captains of a force and horsemen with me. Neh. 2:9
- And when Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobijah the servant, the Ammonite, heard of it, it grieved them exceedingly that there had come a man to seek the welfare of the children of Israel. Neh. 2:10
- And I came to Jerusalem, and was there three days. Neh. 2:11
- And I arose in the night, I and some few men with me -- but I told no man what my God had put in my heart to do for Jerusalem -- and there was no beast with me, except the beast that I rode upon. Neh. 2:12
- And I went out by night by the valley-gate, even toward the jackal-fountain, and to the dung-gate; and I viewed the walls of Jerusalem, which were in ruins, and its gates were consumed with fire. Neh. 2:13
- And I went on to the fountain-gate, and to the king's pool; and there was no place for the beast under me to pass. Neh. 2:14
- And the rulers did not know whither I went or what I did, for I had not as yet told it to the Jews, nor to the priests, nor to the nobles, nor to the rulers, nor to the rest that did the work. Neh. 2:16
- And I said to them, Ye see the distress that we are in, that Jerusalem lies waste, and its gates are burned with fire. Come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach. Neh. 2:17
- And I answered them, and said to them, The God of the heavens, he will prosper us, and we his servants will arise and build; but ye have no portion, nor right, nor memorial in Jerusalem. Neh. 2:20
- And Eliashib the high priest rose up with his brethren the priests, and they built the sheep-gate. They hallowed it, and set up its doors; and they hallowed it even to the tower of Meah, to the tower of Hananeel. Neh. 3:1
- And next to them built the men of Jericho. And next to them built Zaccur the son of Imri. Neh. 3:2
- And next to them repaired Meremoth the son of Urijah, the son of Koz. And next to them repaired Meshullam the son of Berechiah, the son of Meshezabeel. And next to them repaired Zadok the son of Baana. Neh. 3:4

- After him repaired Malchijah of the goldsmiths to the place of the Nethinim and of the dealers, over against the gate Miphkad, and to the ascent of the corner. Neh. 3:31
- And it came to pass that when Sanballat heard that we built the wall, he was angry and very indignant, and mocked the Jews. Neh. 4:1
- And he spoke before his brethren and the army of Samaria, and said, What do these feeble Jews? shall they be permitted to go on? Will they offer sacrifices? Will they finish in a day? Will they revive the stones out of the heaps of rubbish, when they are burned? Neh. 4:2
- But we built the wall; and all the wall was joined together to the half thereof; for the people had a mind to work. Neh. 4:6
- And it came to pass, when Sanballat, and Tobijah, and the Arabians, and the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites heard that the walls of Jerusalem were being repaired, that the breaches began to be stopped, then they were very wroth, Neh. 4:7
- and conspired all of them together to come to fight against Jerusalem, and to hinder it. Neh. 4:8
- Then we prayed to our God, and set a watch against them day and night, because of them. Neh. 4:9
- And Judah said, The strength of the bearers of burdens faileth, and there is much rubbish; so that we are not able to build at the wall. Neh. 4:10
- And our adversaries said, They shall not know, neither see, till we come into the midst of them and kill them, and put an end to the work. Neh. 4:11
- And it came to pass that when the Jews that dwelt by them came and told us so ten times, from all the places whence they returned to us, Neh. 4:12

- And it came to pass that when our enemies heard that it was known to us, and that God had defeated their counsel, we returned all of us to the wall, every one to his work. Neh. 4:15
- And I said to the nobles, and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The work is great and extended, and we are scattered upon the wall, one far from another: Neh. 4:19
- in what place ye hear the sound of the trumpet, thither shall ye assemble to us; our God will fight for us. Neh. 4:20
- Likewise at the same time I said to the people, Let every one with his servant lodge within Jerusalem, that in the night they may be a guard to us, and be for labour in the day. Neh. 4:22
- And there were that said, We have had to pledge our fields, and our vineyards, and our houses, that we might procure corn in the dearth. Neh. 5:3
- yet now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children as their children; and behold, we must bring into bondage our sons and our daughters to be servants, and some of our daughters are brought into bondage already; neither is it in the power of our hand to redeem them, for other men have our fields and our vineyards. Neh. 5:5
- And I consulted with myself; and I remonstrated with the nobles and the rulers, and said to them, Ye exact usury, every one of his brother! And I set a great assembly against them. Neh. 5:7
- And I said to them, We, according to our ability, have redeemed our brethren the Jews, who were sold to the nations; and will ye even sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us? And they were silent and found no answer. Neh. 5:8
- And I said, The thing that ye do is not good. Ought ye not to walk in the fear of our God, so as not to be the reproach of the nations our enemies? Neh. 5:9
- Restore, I pray you, to them this very day their fields, their vineyards, their olive-gardens, and their houses, also the hundredth part of the money, and of the corn, the wine and the oil, that ye have exacted of them. Neh. 5:11
- And they said, We will restore them, and will require nothing of them; so will we do, as thou hast said. And I called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should do according to this promise. Neh. 5:12
- Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every man from his house and from his earnings, that performeth not this promise: even thus be he shaken out and emptied! And all the congregation said, Amen! And they praised Jehovah. And the people did according to this promise. Neh. 5:13
- Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even to the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes the king, twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor. Neh. 5:14
- But the former governors that were before me had been chargeable to the people, and had taken of them bread and wine, besides forty shekels of silver: even their servants bore rule over the people. But I did not so, because of the fear of God. Neh. 5:15
- Yea, also I applied myself to this work of the wall, and we bought no fields; and all my servants were gathered thither for the work. Neh. 5:16
- And there were at my table a hundred and fifty of the Jews and the rulers, besides those that came to us from among the nations that were about us. Neh. 5:17
- And it came to pass when Sanballat, and Tobijah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had built the wall, and that there was no breach left in it (though at that time I had not set up the doors in the gates), Neh. 6:1
- that Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, Come, let us meet together in the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief. Neh. 6:2
- And I sent messengers to them, saying, I am doing a great work, and I cannot come down. Why should the work cease, whilst I leave it and come down to you? Neh. 6:3
- And they sent to me four times after this sort; and I answered them in the same manner. Neh. 6:4
- Then sent Sanballat his servant to me in this manner the fifth time, with an open letter in his hand, Neh. 6:5
- in which was written: It is reported among the nations, and Gashmu says it, that thou and the Jews think to rebel, for which cause thou buildest the wall, and according to these words thou wilt become their king. Neh. 6:6
- And thou hast also appointed prophets to proclaim concerning thee at Jerusalem saying, There is a king in Judah! And now it will be reported to the king according to these words. Come now therefore, and let us take counsel together. Neh. 6:7
- And I sent to him, saying, There are no such things done as thou sayest, but thou feignest them out of thine own heart. Neh. 6:8
- And I came to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah, the son of Mehetabeel, who had shut himself up. And he said, Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us shut the doors of the temple; for they are coming to kill thee; even in the night are they coming to kill thee. Neh. 6:10
- Therefore was he hired, that I should be afraid, and do so, and sin, and that they might have wherewith to spread an evil report, that they might reproach me. Neh. 6:13
- My God, remember Tobijah and Sanballat according to these their works, and also the prophetess Noadiah, and the rest of the prophets who would have put me in fear. Neh. 6:14
- And it came to pass that when all our enemies heard of it, all the nations that were about us were afraid and were much cast down in their own eyes, and they perceived that this work was wrought by our God. Neh. 6:16
- Moreover in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobijah, and those of Tobijah came to them. Neh. 6:17
- For there were many in Judah sworn to him; for he was a son-in-law of Shechaniah the son of Arah; and his son Johanan had taken the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah. Neh. 6:18
- Also they spoke of his good deeds before me, and reported my words to him. And Tobijah sent letters to put me in fear. Neh. 6:19
- And it came to pass when the wall was built, and I had set up the doors, that the doorkeepers and the singers and the Levites were appointed. Neh. 7:1
- And I said to them that the gates of Jerusalem should not be opened until the sun was hot, and that they should shut the doors and bar them while they stood by; and that there should be appointed watches of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, every one in his watch, and every one over against his house. Neh. 7:3
- And my God put into my heart to gather together the nobles, and the rulers, and the people, for registration by genealogy. And I found a genealogical register of those that had come up at the first, and I found written in it: Neh. 7:5
- These are the children of the province that went up out of the captivity of those that had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who came again to Jerusalem and to Judah, every one to his city; Neh. 7:6
- And the Tirshatha said to them that they should not eat of the most holy things, till there stood up the priest with Urim and Thummim. Neh. 7:65
- And some of the chief fathers gave to the work. The Tirshatha gave to the treasure a thousand darics of gold, fifty basons, five hundred and thirty priests' coats. Neh. 7:70
- And some of the chief fathers gave to the treasure of the work twenty thousand darics of gold, and two thousand two hundred pounds of silver. Neh. 7:71
- all the people gathered together as one man to the open place that was before the water-gate; and they spoke to Ezra the scribe to bring the book of the law of Moses, which Jehovah had commanded Israel. Neh. 8:1
- And he read in it before the open place that was before the water-gate from the morning until midday, in presence of the men and the women, and those that could understand. And the ears of all the people were attentive to the book of the law. Neh. 8:3
- And Ezra blessed Jehovah, the great God; and all the people answered, Amen, Amen! with lifting up of their hands; and they bowed their heads, and worshipped Jehovah with their faces to the ground. Neh. 8:6
- And Jeshua, and Bani, and Sherebiah, Jamin, Akkub, Shabbethai, Hodijah, Maaseiah, Kelita, Azariah, Jozabad, Hanan, Pelaiah, and the Levites, caused the people to understand the law; and the people stood in their place. Neh. 8:7
- And they read in the law of God distinctly out of the book, and gave the sense, and caused them to understand the reading. Neh. 8:8
- And Nehemiah, that is, the Tirshatha, and Ezra the priest the scribe, and the Levites that explained to the people, said to all the people, This day is holy to Jehovah your God: mourn not, nor weep. For all the people wept when they heard the words of the law. Neh. 8:9
- And he said to them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions to them for whom nothing is prepared; for the day is holy to our Lord; and be not grieved, for the joy of Jehovah is your strength. Neh. 8:10
- And all the people went their way, to eat and to drink, and to send portions, and to make great rejoicing. For they had understood the words that were declared to them. Neh. 8:12
- And on the second day were gathered together the chief fathers of all the people, the priests, and the Levites, to Ezra the scribe, even to gain wisdom as to the words of the law. Neh. 8:13
- and that they should publish and proclaim through all their cities, and at Jerusalem, saying, Go forth to the mount, and fetch olive-branches, and wild olive-branches, and myrtle-branches, and palm-branches, and branches of thick trees, to make booths, as it is written. Neh. 8:15
- Also day by day, from the first day to the last day, he read in the book of the law of God. And they observed the feast seven days; and on the eighth day was a solemn assembly, according to the ordinance. Neh. 8:18
- Then stood up upon the platform of the Levites, Jeshua, and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, Chenani, and cried with a loud voice to Jehovah their God. Neh. 9:4
- And the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabniah, Sherebiah, Hodijah, Shebaniah, Pethahiah, said, Stand up, bless Jehovah your God from eternity to eternity. And let men bless the name of thy glory, which is exalted above all blessing and praise. Neh. 9:5
- and foundest his heart faithful before thee, and madest the covenant with him to give the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Jebusites, and the Girgashites, -- to give it to his seed; and thou hast performed thy words, for thou art righteous. Neh. 9:8
- And thou leddest them in the day by a pillar of cloud, and in the night by a pillar of fire, to give them light in the way wherein they should go. Neh. 9:12
- And thou gavest them bread from the heavens for their hunger, and broughtest forth water for them out of the rock for their thirst, and didst say to them that they should go in to possess the land which thou hadst sworn to give them. Neh. 9:15
- But they, our fathers, dealt proudly, and hardened their neck, and hearkened not to thy commandments, Neh. 9:16
- and refused to obey, neither were they mindful of thy wonders which thou hadst done among them; but hardened their neck, and in their rebellion made a captain to return to their bondage. But thou art a +God ready to forgive, gracious and merciful, slow to anger and of great loving-kindness, and thou forsookest them not. Neh. 9:17
- yet thou in thy manifold mercies forsookest them not in the wilderness. The pillar of the cloud departed not from over them by day, to lead them on the way; neither the pillar of fire by night, to shew them light, and the way wherein they should go. Neh. 9:19
- Thou gavest also thy good Spirit to instruct them, and withheldest not thy manna from their mouth, and gavest them water for their thirst. Neh. 9:20
- And their children thou didst multiply as the stars of heaven, and thou broughtest them into the land concerning which thou didst say to their fathers that they should go in to possess it. Neh. 9:23
- But they were disobedient, and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their backs, and slew thy prophets who testified against them to turn them to thee, and they wrought great provocations. Neh. 9:26
- And thou gavest them into the hand of their oppressors, and they oppressed them; and in the time of their distress, when they cried unto thee, thou heardest them from the heavens, and according to thy manifold mercies thou gavest them saviours, who saved them out of the hand of their oppressors. Neh. 9:27
- But when they had rest, they did evil again before thee; and thou didst leave them in the hand of their enemies, and they had dominion over them; and again they cried unto thee, and thou heardest them from the heavens, and many times didst thou deliver them, according to thy mercies. Neh. 9:28
- But thou art just in all that is come upon us; for thou hast acted according to truth, and we have done wickedly. Neh. 9:33
- Behold, we are servants this day, and the land that thou gavest unto our fathers to eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, behold, we are bondmen in it. Neh. 9:36
- And the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the doorkeepers, the singers, the Nethinim, and all they that had separated themselves from the peoples of the lands to the law of God, their wives, their sons and their daughters, every one having knowledge and having understanding, Neh. 10:28
- joined with their brethren, their nobles, and entered into a curse and into an oath, to walk in the law of God, which had been given by Moses the servant of God, and to keep and do all the commandments of Jehovah our Lord, and his ordinances and his statutes; Neh. 10:29
- and that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons: Neh. 10:30
- and that if the peoples of the land brought wares or any grain on the sabbath day to sell, we would not take it of them on the sabbath, or on any holy day; and that we would leave the land uncultivated the seventh year, and the exaction of every debt. Neh. 10:31
- And we made ordinances for us, to charge ourselves yearly with the third part of a shekel for the service of the house of our God, Neh. 10:32
- for the bread to be set in rows, and for the continual oblation, and for the continual burnt-offering, for that of the sabbaths and of the new moons, for the set feasts and for the holy things, and for the sin-offerings to make an atonement for Israel, and for all the work of the house of our God. Neh. 10:33
- And we cast the lots among the priests, the Levites, and the people, for the wood-offering, to bring it into the house of our God, according to our fathers' houses, at times appointed year by year, to burn upon the altar of Jehovah our God, as it is written in the law; Neh. 10:34
- and to bring the first-fruits of our land, and the first-fruits of all fruit of all trees, year by year to the house of Jehovah, Neh. 10:35
- and the firstborn of our sons and of our cattle, as it is written in the law; and to bring the firstlings of our herds and of our flocks to the house of our God, to the priests that minister in the house of our God; Neh. 10:36
- and that we should bring the first-fruits of our coarse meal and our heave-offerings, and the fruit of all manner of trees, new wine and oil, to the priests, into the chambers of the house of our God, and the tithes of our ground to the Levites, that they, the Levites, should take the tithes in all the cities of our tillage. Neh. 10:37
- And the priest the son of Aaron shall be with the Levites, when the Levites take tithes; and the Levites shall bring up the tithe of the tithes to the house of our God, into the chambers of the treasure-house. Neh. 10:38
- And the princes of the people dwelt in Jerusalem; and the rest of the people cast lots, to bring one of ten to dwell in Jerusalem, the holy city, and nine parts in the cities. Neh. 11:1
- And the people blessed all the men that willingly offered themselves to dwell in Jerusalem. Neh. 11:2
- and Mattaniah the son of Mica, the son of Zabdi, the son of Asaph, who was the principal to begin the thanksgiving in prayer; and Bakbukiah, the second among his brethren; and Abda the son of Shammua, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun: Neh. 11:17
- And as to the hamlets in their fields, some of the children of Judah dwelt in Kirjath-Arba and its dependent villages, and in Dibon and its dependent villages, and in Jekabzeel and its dependent villages, Neh. 11:25
- And the chief Levites: Hashabiah, Sherebiah, and Jeshua the son of Kadmiel, with their brethren over against them, to praise and to give thanks, according to the commandment of David the man of God, ward over against ward. Neh. 12:24
- And at the dedication of the wall of Jerusalem they sought the Levites out of all their places, to bring them to Jerusalem, to hold the dedication with gladness, both with thanksgivings, and with singing, with cymbals, lutes and harps. Neh. 12:27
- And at the fountain-gate, and over against them, they went up by the stairs of the city of David, at the ascent of the wall, above the house of David, even to the water-gate eastward. Neh. 12:37
- And the second choir went in the opposite direction upon the wall, and I after them, and the half of the people, from beyond the tower of the furnaces even to the broad wall; Neh. 12:38
- and from above the gate of Ephraim, and above the gate of the old wall, and above the fish-gate, and the tower of Hananeel, and the tower of Meah, even to the sheep-gate; and they stood still in the prison-gate. Neh. 12:39
- And at that time men were appointed over the chambers of the treasures for the heave-offerings, for the first-fruits, and for the tithes, to gather into them, out of the fields of the cities, the portions assigned by the law for the priests and the Levites; for Judah rejoiced over the priests, and over the Levites that waited. Neh. 12:44
- And, with the singers and the doorkeepers, they kept the ward of their God, and the ward of the purification, according to the commandment of David and of Solomon his son. Neh. 12:45
- For of old, in the days of David and Asaph, there were the chiefs of the singers, and songs of praise and thanksgivings to God. Neh. 12:46
- because they had not met the children of Israel with bread and with water, and had hired Balaam against them, to curse them; but our God turned the curse into blessing. Neh. 13:2
- And it came to pass, when they heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude. Neh. 13:3
- And during all that time I was not at Jerusalem; for in the two-and-thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I came to the king; and after some time I obtained leave of the king. Neh. 13:6
- And I came to Jerusalem, and observed the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobijah, in preparing him a chamber in the courts of the house of God. Neh. 13:7
- And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given, and that the Levites and the singers that did the work had fled every one to his field. Neh. 13:10
- And I made storekeepers over the storehouses: Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah; and subordinate to them, Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah; for they were esteemed faithful, and their office was to distribute to their brethren. Neh. 13:13
- Men of Tyre also dwelt therein, who brought fish and all manner of ware, and sold it on the sabbath to the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem. Neh. 13:16
- And I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said to them, What evil thing is this which ye do, profaning the sabbath day? Neh. 13:17
- And it came to pass, that when it began to be dark in the gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut; and I commanded that they should not be opened till after the sabbath. And I set some of my servants at the gates, so that no burden should be brought in on the sabbath day. Neh. 13:19
- And I testified against them, and said to them, Why do ye pass the night before the wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth they came not on the sabbath. Neh. 13:21
- And I commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to hallow the sabbath day. Remember this also for me, my God, and spare me according to thy great loving-kindness! Neh. 13:22
- And their children spoke half in the language of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews' language, but according to the language of each people. Neh. 13:24
- And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them and plucked off their hair, and adjured them by God saying, Ye shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor take their daughters for your sons or for yourselves. Neh. 13:25
- Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet among the many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel; but even him did foreign wives cause to sin. Neh. 13:26
- And should we hearken to you to do all this great evil, to act unfaithfully to our God by marrying foreign wives? Neh. 13:27
- And one of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite; and I chased him from me. Neh. 13:28
- And it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus (that is, the Ahasuerus that reigned from India even to Ethiopia, over a hundred and twenty-seven provinces), Esther 1:1
- in the third year of his reign, he made a feast to all his princes and his servants; the power of Persia and Media, the nobles and the princes of the provinces being before him; Esther 1:3
- And when these days were expired, the king made a feast to all the people that were present in Shushan the fortress, both to great and small, seven days, in the court of the garden of the king's palace. Esther 1:5
- White, green, and blue hangings were fastened with cords of byssus and purple to silver rings and pillars of white marble; couches of gold and silver lay upon a pavement of red and white marble, and alabaster, and black marble. Esther 1:6
- And they gave drink in vessels of gold (the vessels being diverse one from another), and royal wine in abundance, according to the king's bounty. Esther 1:7
- And the drinking was, according to commandment, without constraint; for so the king had appointed to all the magnates of his house, that they should do according to every man's pleasure. Esther 1:8
- Also the queen Vashti made a feast for the women of the royal house which belonged to king Ahasuerus. Esther 1:9
- to bring Vashti the queen before the king with the royal crown to shew the peoples and the princes her beauty; for she was of beautiful countenance. Esther 1:11
- But the queen Vashti refused to come at the word of the king which was sent by the chamberlains; and the king was very wroth, and his fury burned in him. Esther 1:12
- And the king said to the wise men who knew the times (for so was the king's business conducted before all that knew law and judgment; Esther 1:13
- and the next to him were Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena, and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media, who saw the king's face, and who sat first in the kingdom), Esther 1:14
- What shall be done to the queen Vashti according to law, because she has not performed the word of the king Ahasuerus by the chamberlains? Esther 1:15
- Then said Memucan before the king and the princes, The queen Vashti has not done wrong to the king only, but also to all the princes, and to all the peoples that are in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus. Esther 1:16
- For the act of the queen will come abroad to all women, so as to render their husbands contemptible in their eyes, when they shall say, The king Ahasuerus commanded the queen Vashti to be brought in before him, and she came not! Esther 1:17
- And the princesses of Persia and Media who have heard of the queen's act, will say it this day to all the king's princes, and there will be contempt and anger enough. Esther 1:18
- If it please the king, let a royal order go forth from him, and let it be written among the laws of the Persians and the Medes, that it may not pass, That Vashti come no more before king Ahasuerus; and let the king give her royal estate to another that is better than she; Esther 1:19
- and when the king's edict which he shall make shall be heard throughout his realm -- for it is great -- all the wives shall give to their husbands honour, from the greatest to the least. Esther 1:20
- And the saying pleased the king and the princes; and the king did according to the word of Memucan. Esther 1:21
- And he sent letters into all the king's provinces, into every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people according to their language, That every man should bear rule in his own house, and should speak according to the language of his people. Esther 1:22
- and let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom, that they may gather together all the young virgins of beautiful countenance to Shushan the fortress, to the house of the women, unto the custody of Hegai the king's chamberlain, keeper of the women; and let their things for purification be given. Esther 2:3
- And it came to pass when the king's commandment and his decree was heard, and when many maidens were gathered together unto Shushan the fortress, unto the custody of Hegai, that Esther also was brought into the king's house, unto the custody of Hegai, keeper of the women. Esther 2:8
- And the maiden pleased him, and obtained favour before him; and he speedily gave her her things for purification, and her portions, and the seven maidens selected to be given her, out of the king's house; and he removed her and her maids to the best place of the house of the women. Esther 2:9
- And Mordecai walked every day before the court of the women's house, to know how Esther did, and what should become of her. Esther 2:11
- And when every maiden's turn came to go in to king Ahasuerus after that she had been treated for twelve months, according to the manner of the women (for so were the days of their purification accomplished -- six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with spices, and with things for the purifying of the women, Esther 2:12
- and thus came the maiden in unto the king), whatever she desired was given her to go with her out of the house of the women to the king's house. Esther 2:13
- In the evening she went, and on the morrow she returned into the second house of the women, unto the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's chamberlain, keeper of the concubines. She came in to the king no more, unless the king delighted in her, and she were called by name. Esther 2:14
- And when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her for his daughter, came to go in to the king, she required nothing but what Hegai the king's chamberlain, keeper of the women, appointed. And Esther obtained grace in the sight of all them that saw her. Esther 2:15
- So Esther was taken to king Ahasuerus, into his royal house, in the tenth month, that is, the month Tebeth, in the seventh year of his reign. Esther 2:16
- And the king made a great feast to all his princes and his servants, Esther's feast; and he made a release to the provinces, and gave presents according to the king's bounty. Esther 2:18
- In those days, while Mordecai sat in the king's gate, two of the king's chamberlains, Bigthan and Teresh, of those which kept the threshold, were wroth, and sought to lay hand on the king Ahasuerus. Esther 2:21
- And the thing became known to Mordecai, and he related it to Esther the queen, and Esther told it to the king in Mordecai's name. Esther 2:22
- Then the king's servants, who were in the king's gate, said to Mordecai, Why transgressest thou the king's commandment? Esther 3:3
- And it came to pass as they spoke daily to him, and he hearkened not to them, that they informed Haman, to see whether Mordecai's matters would stand; for he had told them that he was a Jew. Esther 3:4
- But he scorned to lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had made known to him the people of Mordecai; therefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews that were in all the kingdom of Ahasuerus -- the people of Mordecai. Esther 3:6
- In the first month, that is, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman for each day and for each month, to the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar. Esther 3:7
- And Haman said to king Ahasuerus, There is a people scattered abroad and dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of thy kingdom; and their laws are diverse from those of every people, and they keep not the king's laws; and it is not for the king's profit to suffer them. Esther 3:8
- If it please the king, let it be written that they may be destroyed, and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those that have charge of the affairs, to bring it into the king's treasuries. Esther 3:9
- And the king took his ring from his hand, and gave it to Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the Jews' enemy. Esther 3:10
- And the king said to Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as seems good to thee. Esther 3:11
- Then were the king's scribes called, in the first month, on the thirteenth day of the month, and there was written according to all that Haman commanded unto the king's satraps, and to the governors over every province, and to the princes of every people; to every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people according to their language: in the name of king Ahasuerus was it written, and sealed with the king's ring. Esther 3:12
- And the letters were sent by couriers into all the king's provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, upon the thirteenth of the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, and to take the spoil of them for a prey. Esther 3:13

- The couriers went out, being hastened by the king's commandment, and the decree was given in Shushan the fortress. And the king and Haman sat down to drink; but the city of Shushan was in consternation. Esther 3:15
- And Esther's maids and her chamberlains came and told it her; and the queen was exceedingly grieved: and she sent raiment to clothe Mordecai, and to take away his sackcloth from him; but he received it not. Esther 4:4
- Then Esther called for Hatach, one of the king's chamberlains, whom he had appointed to wait upon her, and gave him a commandment to Mordecai, to know what it was, and why it was. Esther 4:5
- And Hatach went forth to Mordecai, unto the public place of the city which was before the king's gate. Esther 4:6
- And Mordecai told him of all that had happened to him, and of the sum of money that Haman had promised to pay to the king's treasuries for the Jews, to destroy them. Esther 4:7
- And he gave him a copy of the writing of the decree that had been given at Shushan to destroy them, to shew it to Esther, and to declare it to her, and to charge her that she should go in unto the king, to make supplication to him, and to make request before him, for her people. Esther 4:8
- And Esther spoke to Hatach, and gave him commandment unto Mordecai: Esther 4:10
- All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces do know that whoever, whether man or woman, shall come to the king into the inner court, who is not called, there is *one* law, to put him to death, except such to whom the king shall hold out the golden sceptre, that he may live; and I have not been called to come in unto the king these thirty days. Esther 4:11
- And Mordecai bade to answer Esther: Imagine not in thy heart that thou shalt escape in the king's house, more than all the Jews. Esther 4:13
- For if thou altogether holdest thy peace at this time, then shall there arise relief and deliverance to the Jews from another place; but thou and thy father's house shall perish. And who knows whether thou art not come to the kingdom for such a time as this? Esther 4:14
- And Esther bade to answer Mordecai: Esther 4:15
- Go, gather together all the Jews that are found in Shushan, and fast for me, and neither eat nor drink three days, night or day: I also and my maidens will fast likewise, and so will I go in unto the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish. Esther 4:16
- And Mordecai went his way, and did according to all that Esther had commanded him. Esther 4:17
- And it came to pass on the third day, that Esther put on royal apparel, and stood in the inner court of the king's house, over against the king's house. And the king sat upon his royal throne in the royal house, over against the entrance to the house. Esther 5:1
- And it was so, when the king saw the queen Esther standing in the court, that she obtained grace in his sight; and the king held out to Esther the golden sceptre that was in his hand; and Esther drew near, and touched the top of the sceptre. Esther 5:2
- And the king said to her, What wilt thou, queen Esther? and what is thy request? it shall be given thee even to the half of the kingdom. Esther 5:3
- And Esther said, If it seem good to the king, let the king and Haman come this day to the banquet that I have prepared for him. Esther 5:4
- And the king said, Hasten Haman, that it may be done as Esther has said. And the king and Haman came to the banquet that Esther had prepared. Esther 5:5
- And the king said to Esther at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee; and what is thy request? even to the half of the kingdom it shall be done. Esther 5:6
- If I have found grace in the sight of the king, and if it please the king to grant my petition, and to perform my request, let the king and Haman come to the banquet that I shall prepare for them, and I will do to-morrow according to the king's word. Esther 5:8
- And Haman said, Yea, Esther the queen let no man come in with the king to the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and to-morrow also I am invited to her with the king. Esther 5:12
- Yet all this is of no avail to me so long as I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate. Esther 5:13
- Then said Zeresh his wife and all his friends to him, Let a gallows be made of fifty cubits high, and in the morning speak to the king that Mordecai may be hanged on it: then go in merrily with the king to the banquet. And the thing pleased Haman; and he caused the gallows to be made. Esther 5:14
- On that night sleep fled from the king. And he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king. Esther 6:1
- And it was found written, that Mordecai had told of Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's chamberlains, keepers of the threshold, who had sought to lay hand on king Ahasuerus. Esther 6:2
- And the king said, What honour and dignity has been done to Mordecai for this? And the king's servants that attended upon him said, Nothing has been done for him. Esther 6:3
- And the king said, Who is in the court? Now Haman had come into the outward court of the king's house, to speak to the king to hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him. Esther 6:4
- And the king's servants said to him, Behold, Haman is standing in the court. And the king said, Let him come in. Esther 6:5
- So Haman came in. And the king said to him, What is to be done with the man whom the king delights to honour? Now Haman thought in his heart, To whom would the king delight to do honour more than to me? Esther 6:6
- And Haman answered the king, For the man whom the king delights to honour, Esther 6:7
- and let the apparel and horse be delivered into the hand of one of the king's most noble princes, and let them array the man whom the king delights to honour, and cause him to ride on the horse through the street of the city, and proclaim before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honour! Esther 6:9
- And the king said to Haman, Make haste, take the apparel and the horse, as thou hast said, and do so to Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king's gate: let nothing fail of all that thou hast said. Esther 6:10
- And Haman took the apparel and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and caused him to ride through the street of the city, and proclaimed before him, Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honour! Esther 6:11
- And Mordecai came again to the king's gate. But Haman hasted to his house, mourning and having his head covered. Esther 6:12
- And Haman recounted to Zeresh his wife and to all his friends all that had befallen him. Then said his wise men and Zeresh his wife to him, If Mordecai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou shalt not prevail against him, but wilt certainly fall before him. Esther 6:13
- While they were yet talking with him, the king's chamberlains came, and hasted to bring Haman to the banquet that Esther had prepared. Esther 6:14
- And the king and Haman came to drink with Esther the queen. Esther 7:1
- And the king said again to Esther on the second day, at the banquet of wine, What is thy petition, queen Esther? and it shall be granted thee; and what is thy request? even to the half of the kingdom it shall be done. Esther 7:2
- for we are sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be slain, and to perish. But if we had been sold for bondmen and bondwomen, I had held my tongue, although the adversary could not compensate the king's damage. Esther 7:4
- And king Ahasuerus spoke and said to Esther the queen, Who is he, and where is he that has filled his heart to do so? Esther 7:5
- And the king in his wrath rose up from the banquet of wine, and went into the palace garden; but Haman stayed to make request for his life to Esther the queen, for he saw that there was evil determined against him by the king. Esther 7:7
- On that day did king Ahasuerus give the house of Haman the Jews' oppressor to Esther the queen. And Mordecai came before the king; for Esther had told what he was to her. Esther 8:1
- And the king took off his ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman. Esther 8:2
- And Esther spoke yet again before the king, and fell down at his feet, and besought him with tears to put away the mischief of Haman the Agagite, and his device which he had devised against the Jews. Esther 8:3
- and said, If it please the king and if I have found grace before him, and the thing seem right to the king, and I be pleasing in his sight, let it be written to reverse the letters devised by Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews that are in all the king's provinces. Esther 8:5
- For how shall I endure to see the evil that shall befall my people? and how shall I endure to see the destruction of my kindred? Esther 8:6
- And king Ahasuerus said to queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he stretched forth his hand against the Jews. Esther 8:7
- Write ye then for the Jews as seems good to you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring. For a writing that is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, cannot be reversed. Esther 8:8
- Then were the king's scribes called at that time, in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded, to the Jews, and to the satraps, and the governors, and the princes of the provinces which are from India even to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven provinces, to every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people according to their language, and to the Jews according to their writing and according to their language. Esther 8:9
- stating that the king granted the Jews that were in every city to gather themselves together, and to stand for their life, to destroy, to slay, and to cause to perish, all the power of the people and province that might assault them, their little ones and women, and to take the spoil of them for a prey, Esther 8:11
- That the decree might be given in every province, a copy of the writing was published to all the peoples, and that the Jews should be ready against that day to avenge themselves on their enemies. Esther 8:13
- And in the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar, on the thirteenth day thereof, when the king's commandment and his decree drew near to be put in execution, in the day that the enemies of the Jews hoped to have power over them (but it was turned to the contrary, that the Jews had power over them that hated them), Esther 9:1
- the Jews gathered themselves together in their cities throughout the provinces of king Ahasuerus, to lay hand on such as sought their hurt. And no man could withstand them; for the fear of them had fallen upon all the peoples. Esther 9:2
- And the Jews smote all their enemies with the stroke of the sword and slaughter and destruction, and did what they would to those that hated them. Esther 9:5
- And the king said to Esther the queen, The Jews have slain and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the fortress, and the ten sons of Haman; what have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? And what is thy petition? and it shall be granted thee; and what is thy request further? and it shall be done. Esther 9:12
- And Esther said, If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews that are in Shushan to do to-morrow also according to this day's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged upon the gallows. Esther 9:13
- And the king commanded it so to be done: and the decree was given at Shushan; and they hanged Haman's ten sons. Esther 9:14
- Therefore the Jews of the villages that dwell in the country towns make the fourteenth of the month Adar a day of joy and feasting, and a good day, and on which they send portions one to another. Esther 9:19
- And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters to all the Jews near and far that were in all the provinces of king Ahasuerus, Esther 9:20
- to establish this among them, that they should keep the fourteenth day of the month Adar, and the fifteenth day of the same, yearly, Esther 9:21
- as the days on which the Jews rested from their enemies, and the month that was turned to them from sorrow to joy, and from mourning into a good day; that they should make them days of feasting and joy, and of sending portions one to another, and gifts to the poor. Esther 9:22
- And the Jews undertook to do as they had begun, and as Mordecai had written to them. Esther 9:23
- For Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the oppressor of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur, that is, the lot, to consume them and to destroy them; Esther 9:24
- Therefore they called these days Purim after the name of Pur. Therefore, according to all the words of this letter, and for what they had seen concerning this matter and what had happened to them, Esther 9:26
- the Jews ordained and took upon them, and upon their seed, and upon all such as joined themselves to them, so that it should not fail, that they would observe these two days according to their writing and according to their fixed time, every year; Esther 9:27

- And he sent letters to all the Jews, to the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, words of peace and truth, Esther 9:30
- to confirm these days of Purim in their fixed times, according as Mordecai the Jew and queen Esther had enjoined them, and as they had decreed for themselves and for their seed, as to the matters of the fastings and their cry. Esther 9:31
- And all the acts of his power and of his might, and the declaration of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia? Esther 10:2
- For Mordecai the Jew was second to king Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren, seeking the welfare of his people, and speaking peace to all his seed. Esther 10:3
- And there were born to him seven sons and three daughters. Job 1:2
- And his sons went and made a feast in the house of each one on his day; and they sent and invited their three sisters to eat and to drink with them. Job 1:4

- There is a vanity which is done upon the earth; that there are righteous men unto whom it happeneth according to the work of the wicked; and there are wicked men to whom it happeneth according to the work of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity. Eccl. 8:14

- then I saw that all is the work of God, and that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because however man may labour to seek it out, yet doth he not find it; and even, if a wise man think to know it, he shall not be able to find it out. Eccl. 8:17

- And the Chaldeans spoke to the king in Aramaic, O king, live for ever! tell thy servants the dream, and we will shew the interpretation. Dan. 2:4
- The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The command is gone forth from me: If ye do not make known unto me the dream, and its interpretation, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be made a dunghill. Dan. 2:5
- but if ye do not make known unto me the dream, there is but one decree for you; for ye have prepared lying and corrupt words to speak before me, till the time be changed: therefore tell me the dream, and I shall know that ye can shew me its interpretation. Dan. 2:9
- For this cause the king was irritated and very wroth, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon. Dan. 2:12
- And the decree went forth that the wise men were to be slain; and they sought Daniel and his companions to slay them. Dan. 2:13
- Then Daniel answered with counsel and prudence to Arioch the chief of the king's bodyguard, who had gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon: Dan. 2:14
- he answered and said to Arioch the king's captain, Why is the decree so rigorous from the king? Then Arioch made the thing known to Daniel. Dan. 2:15
- Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions; Dan. 2:17
- And it is he that changeth times and seasons; He deposeth kings, and setteth up kings; He giveth wisdom to the wise, And knowledge to them that know understanding. Dan. 2:21
- Therefore Daniel went in unto Arioch, whom the king had appointed to destroy the wise men of Babylon; he went and said thus unto him: Destroy not the wise men of Babylon; bring me in before the king, and I will shew unto the king the interpretation. Dan. 2:24
- The king answered and said unto Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto me the dream that I have seen, and its interpretation? Dan. 2:26
- but there is a God in the heavens, who revealeth secrets, and maketh known to king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be at the end of days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy bed are these: Dan. 2:28
- -- as for thee, O king, thy thoughts arose upon thy bed, what should come to pass hereafter; and he that revealeth secrets hath made known to thee what shall come to pass. Dan. 2:29
- And as for me, this secret is revealed to me, not by any wisdom that I have more than any living, but to the intent that the interpretation should be made known to the king, and that thou mightest know the thoughts of thy heart. Dan. 2:30
- Thou sawest till a stone was cut out without hands; and it smote the image upon its feet of iron and clay, and broke them to pieces. Dan. 2:34
- And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee; then another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth. Dan. 2:39
- And whereas thou sawest the iron mixed with miry clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men; but they shall not cleave one to another, even as iron doth not mingle with clay. Dan. 2:43
- And in the days of these kings shall the God of the heavens set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the sovereignty thereof shall not be left to another people: it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, but itself shall stand for ever. Dan. 2:44
- Forasmuch as thou sawest that a stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold, -- the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter. And the dream is certain, and the interpretation of it sure. Dan. 2:45
- The king answered Daniel and said, Of a truth it is that your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, because thou wast able to reveal this secret. Dan. 2:47
- And Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the satraps, the prefects, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, the justices, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image that Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up. Dan. 3:2
- And the herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, O peoples, nations, and languages, Dan. 3:4
- They spoke and said to the king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever! Dan. 3:9
- Then Nebuchadnezzar in rage and fury commanded to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. Then were these men brought before the king. Dan. 3:13
- Now if ye be ready at the time that ye hear the sound of the cornet, pipe, lute, sambuca, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, to fall down and worship the image that I have made, well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast that same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace: and who is the God that shall deliver you out of my hands? Dan. 3:15
- Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee in this matter. Dan. 3:16
- If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thy hand, O king. Dan. 3:17
- Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego. He spoke, and commanded that they should heat the furnace seven times more than it was wont to be heated. Dan. 3:19
- And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, and cast them into the burning fiery furnace. Dan. 3:20
- Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste; he spoke and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said to the king, True, O king. Dan. 3:24
- Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the opening of the burning fiery furnace; he spoke and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, ye servants of the Most High God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego came forth from the midst of the fire. Dan. 3:26
- Therefore I make a decree, that in every people, nation, and language, he who shall speak anything amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, shall be cut in pieces, and his house shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that is able to deliver after this sort. Dan. 3:29
- It hath seemed good unto me to declare the signs and wonders that the Most High God hath wrought toward me. Dan. 4:2
- How great are his signs! and how mighty are his wonders! His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and his dominion is from generation to generation. Dan. 4:3
- And I made a decree to bring in all the wise men of Babylon before me, that they might make known unto me the interpretation of the dream. Dan. 4:6
- But at the last Daniel came in before me, whose name is Belteshazzar, according to the name of my god, and in whom is the spirit of the holy gods; and before him I told the dream: Dan. 4:8
- The tree grew, and was strong, and its height reached unto the heavens, and the sight thereof to the end of all the earth. Dan. 4:11
- This sentence is by the decree of the watchers, and the decision by the word of the holy ones: that the living may know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men. Dan. 4:17
- This dream I, king Nebuchadnezzar, have seen; and thou, Belteshazzar, tell the interpretation, forasmuch as all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known unto me the interpretation; but thou art able, for the spirit of the holy gods is in thee. Dan. 4:18
- Then Daniel, whose name is Belteshazzar, was astonied for one hour, and his thoughts troubled him. The king spoke and said, Belteshazzar, let not the dream, nor its interpretation, trouble thee. Belteshazzar answered and said, My lord, the dream be to them that hate thee, and its interpretation to thine enemies! Dan. 4:19
- The tree that thou sawest, which grew and was strong, whose height reached unto the heavens, and the sight of it to all the earth; Dan. 4:20
- it is thou, O king, who art grown and become strong; for thy greatness is grown, and reacheth unto the heavens, and thy dominion to the end of the earth. Dan. 4:22
- They shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field, and they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and thou shalt be bathed with the dew of heaven; and seven times shall pass over thee, till thou know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will. Dan. 4:25
- And whereas it was commanded to leave the stump of the roots of the tree; thy kingdom shall remain unto thee, after that thou shalt know that the heavens do rule. Dan. 4:26
- Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable unto thee, and break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by shewing mercy to the poor; if it may be a lengthening of thy tranquillity. Dan. 4:27
- While the word was in the king's mouth, there fell a voice from the heavens: King Nebuchadnezzar, to thee it is spoken: The kingdom is departed from thee; Dan. 4:31
- and they shall drive thee from men, and thy dwelling shall be with the beasts of the field; they shall make thee to eat grass as oxen, and seven times shall pass over thee, until thou know that the Most High ruleth over the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will. Dan. 4:32
- And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto the heavens, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation. Dan. 4:34
- And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he doeth according to his will in the army of the heavens, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou? Dan. 4:35
- Now I Nebuchadnezzar praise and extol and honour the King of the heavens, all whose works are truth, and his paths judgment: and those that walk in pride he is able to abase. Dan. 4:37
- Belshazzar the king made a great feast to a thousand of his nobles, and drank wine before the thousand. Dan. 5:1
- Belshazzar, while he tasted the wine, commanded to bring the golden and silver vessels that Nebuchadnezzar his father had taken out of the temple which was in Jerusalem; that the king and his nobles, his wives and his concubines, might drink in them. Dan. 5:2
- The king cried aloud to bring in the magicians, the Chaldeans, and the astrologers. The king spoke and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whosoever shall read this writing, and shew me the interpretation thereof, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall be the third ruler in the kingdom. Dan. 5:7
- Then came in all the king's wise men, but they could not read the writing, nor make known to the king the interpretation. Dan. 5:8
- But I have heard of thee, that thou canst give interpretations, and solve problems. Now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom. Dan. 5:16
- Then Daniel answered and said before the king, Let thy gifts be to thyself, and give thy rewards to another; yet will I read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation. Dan. 5:17
- PERES, Thy kingdom is divided, and given to the Medes and Persians. Dan. 5:28
- It pleased Darius to set over the kingdom a hundred and twenty satraps, who should be in all the kingdom; Dan. 6:1
- and over these, three presidents -- of whom Daniel was one -- to whom these satraps should render account, and that the king should suffer no loss. Dan. 6:2
- Now this Daniel surpassed the presidents and the satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to appoint him over the whole realm. Dan. 6:3
- Then the presidents and the satraps sought to find a pretext against Daniel with respect to the kingdom; but they could not find any pretext or fault; inasmuch as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him. Dan. 6:4
- Then these presidents and satraps came in a body to the king, and said thus unto him: King Darius, live for ever! Dan. 6:6
- All the presidents of the kingdom, the prefects, and the satraps, the counsellors, and the governors have consulted together to establish a royal statute, and to make a firm decree, that whosoever shall ask a petition of any god or man for thirty days, except of thee, O king, he shall be cast into the den of lions. Dan. 6:7
- Now, O king, establish the decree, and sign the writing, that it be not changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked. Dan. 6:8
- Then they came near, and spoke before the king concerning the king's decree: Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that shall ask anything of any god or man within thirty days, except of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which may not be revoked. Dan. 6:12
- Then the king, when he heard these words, was sore distressed thereby, and set his heart on Daniel to save him; and he laboured till the going down of the sun to deliver him. Dan. 6:14
- Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were concubines brought before him; and his sleep fled from him. Dan. 6:18
- And when he came near unto the den, he cried with a mournful voice unto Daniel: the king spoke and said unto Daniel, O Daniel, servant of the living God, hath thy God whom thou servest continually been able to save thee from the lions? Dan. 6:20
- And the king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions had the mastery of them, and broke all their bones in pieces ere they came to the bottom of the den. Dan. 6:24
- The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till its wings were plucked; and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon two feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it. Dan. 7:4
- After this I saw, and behold, another, like a leopard, and it had four wings of a bird upon its back; and the beast had four heads; and dominion was given to it. Dan. 7:6
- I beheld therefore, because of the voice of the great words that the horn spoke; I beheld till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given up to be burned with fire. Dan. 7:11
- I saw in the night visions, and behold, there came with the clouds of heaven one like a son of man, and he came up even to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. Dan. 7:13
- But the saints of the most high places shall receive the kingdom, and they shall possess the kingdom for ever, even to the ages of ages. Dan. 7:18
- Then I desired to know the certainty concerning the fourth beast, which was different from them all, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and its nails of brass; which devoured, broke in pieces, and stamped the rest with its feet; Dan. 7:19
- until the Ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the most high places; and the appointed time arrived, and the saints possessed the kingdom. Dan. 7:22
- And as to the ten horns, out of this kingdom shall arise ten kings; and another shall arise after them; and he shall be different from the former, and he shall subdue three kings. Dan. 7:24
- And he shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most high places, and think to change seasons and the law; and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and a half time. Dan. 7:25
- And the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end. Dan. 7:26
- But the kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heavens, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most high places. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him. Dan. 7:27
- In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision appeared unto me, even to me Daniel, after that which appeared unto me at the first. Dan. 8:1
- And I saw in the vision; and it came to pass, when I saw, that I was in the fortress of Shushan, which is in the province of Elam. And I saw in the vision, and I was by the river Ulai. Dan. 8:2
- I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no beast could stand before him, neither was there any that could deliver out of his hand; and he did according to his will, and became great. Dan. 8:4
- And he came to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing before the river, and ran upon him in the fury of his power. Dan. 8:6
- And I saw him come close to the ram, and he was enraged with him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns; and there was no power in the ram to stand before him; and he cast him down to the ground, and trampled upon him; and there was none that could deliver the ram out of his hand. Dan. 8:7
- And it became great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and trampled upon them. Dan. 8:10
- (And he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and from him the continual sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. Dan. 8:11
- And a time of trial was appointed unto the continual sacrifice by reason of transgression.) And it cast down the truth to the ground; and it practised and prospered. Dan. 8:12
- And I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that one who spoke, How long shall be the vision of the continual sacrifice and of the transgression that maketh desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden down under foot? Dan. 8:13
- And it came to pass, when I Daniel had seen the vision, I sought for the understanding of it, and behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man. Dan. 8:15
- And I heard a man's voice between the banks of the Ulai; and he called and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision. Dan. 8:16
- And at the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors shall have come to the full, a king of bold countenance, and understanding riddles, shall stand up. Dan. 8:23
- And through his cunning shall he cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he will magnify himself in his heart, and by prosperity will corrupt many; and he will stand up against the Prince of princes: but he shall be broken without hand. Dan. 8:25
- And the vision of the evening and the morning which hath been told is true; but close thou up the vision, for it is for many days to come. Dan. 8:26

- Then answered him some of the scribes and Pharisees, saying, Teacher, we desire to see a sign from thee. Mt. 12:38
- But he, answering, said to them, A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it save the sign of Jonas the prophet. Mt. 12:39
- A queen of the south shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, more than Solomon is here. Mt. 12:42
- Then he says, I will return to my house whence I came out; and having come, he finds it unoccupied, swept, and adorned. Mt. 12:44
- Then he goes and takes with himself seven other spirits worse than himself, and entering in, they dwell there; and the last condition of that man becomes worse than the first. Thus shall it be to this wicked generation also. Mt. 12:45
- But while he was yet speaking to the crowds, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, seeking to speak to him. Mt. 12:46
- Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren are standing without, seeking to speak to thee. Mt. 12:47
- But he answering said to him that spoke to him, Who is my mother, and who are my brethren? Mt. 12:48
- And, stretching out his hand to his disciples, he said, Behold my mother and my brethren; Mt. 12:49
- And great crowds were gathered together to him, so that going on board ship himself he sat down, and the whole crowd stood on the shore. Mt. 13:2
- And he spoke to them many things in parables, saying, Behold, the sower went out to sow: Mt. 13:3
- And the disciples came up and said to him, Why speakest thou to them in parables? Mt. 13:10
- And he answering said to them, Because to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of the heavens, but to them it is not given; Mt. 13:11
- for whoever has, to him shall be given, and he shall be caused to be in abundance; but he who has not, even what he has shall be taken away from him. Mt. 13:12
- For this cause I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear nor understand; Mt. 13:13
- for verily I say unto you, that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see the things which ye behold and did not see them, and to hear the things which ye hear and did not hear them. Mt. 13:17
- And the bondmen of the householder came up and said to him, Sir, hast thou not sown good seed in thy field? whence then has it darnel? Mt. 13:27
- And he said to them, A man that is an enemy has done this. And the bondmen said to him, Wilt thou then that we should go and gather it up? Mt. 13:28
- Suffer both to grow together unto the harvest, and in time of the harvest I will say to the harvestmen, Gather first the darnel, and bind it into bundles to burn it; but the wheat bring together into my granary. Mt. 13:30
- He spoke another parable to them: The kingdom of the heavens is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal until it had been all leavened. Mt. 13:33
- All these things Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables, and without a parable he did not speak to them, Mt. 13:34
- Then, having dismissed the crowds, he went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Expound to us the parable of the darnel of the field. Mt. 13:36
- Jesus says to them, Have ye understood all these things? They say to him, Yea, Lord. Mt. 13:51
- And he said to them, For this reason every scribe discipled to the kingdom of the heavens is like a man that is a householder who brings out of his treasure things new and old. Mt. 13:52
- And it came to pass when Jesus had finished these parables he withdrew thence. Mt. 13:53
- And they were offended in him. And Jesus said to them, A prophet is not without honour, unless in his country and in his house. Mt. 13:57
- and said to his servants, This is John the baptist: *he* is risen from the dead, and because of this these works of power display their force in him. Mt. 14:2
- For John said to him, It is not lawful for thee to have her. Mt. 14:4
- And while desiring to kill him, he feared the crowd, because they held him for a prophet. Mt. 14:5
- whereupon he promised with oath to give her whatsoever she should ask. Mt. 14:7
- And the king was grieved; but on account of the oaths, and those lying at table with him, he commanded it to be given. Mt. 14:9
- and his head was brought upon a dish, and was given to the damsel, and she carried it to her mother. Mt. 14:11
- And his disciples came and took the body and buried it, and came and brought word to Jesus. Mt. 14:12
- And Jesus, having heard it, went away thence by ship to a desert place apart. And the crowds having heard of it followed him on foot from the cities. Mt. 14:13
- But when even was come, his disciples came to him saying, The place is desert, and much of the day time already gone by; dismiss the crowds, that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves. Mt. 14:15
- But Jesus said to them, They have no need to go: give *ye* them to eat. Mt. 14:16
- But they say to him, We have not here save five loaves and two fishes. Mt. 14:17
- And he said, Bring them here to me. Mt. 14:18
- And having commanded the crowds to recline upon the grass, having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, he looked up to heaven, and blessed: and having broken the loaves, he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. Mt. 14:19
- And immediately he compelled the disciples to go on board ship, and to go on before him to the other side, until he should have dismissed the crowds. Mt. 14:22
- And having dismissed the crowds, he went up into the mountain apart to pray. And when even was come, he was alone there, Mt. 14:23
- But in the fourth watch of the night he went off to them, walking on the sea. Mt. 14:25
- But Jesus immediately spoke to them, saying, Take courage; it is *I*: be not afraid. Mt. 14:27
- And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be *thou*, command me to come to thee upon the waters. Mt. 14:28
- And he said, Come. And Peter, having descended from the ship, walked upon the waters to go to Jesus. Mt. 14:29
- But seeing the wind strong he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, Lord, save me. Mt. 14:30
- And immediately Jesus stretched out his hand and caught hold of him, and says to him, O thou of little faith, why didst thou doubt? Mt. 14:31
- But those in the ship came and did homage to him, saying, Truly thou art God's Son. Mt. 14:33
- And having crossed over they came to the land of Gennesaret. Mt. 14:34
- And when the men of that place recognised him, they sent to that whole country around, and they brought to him all that were ill, Mt. 14:35
- Then the scribes and Pharisees from Jerusalem come up to Jesus, saying, Mt. 15:1
- But he answering said to them, Why do *ye* also transgress the commandment of God on account of your traditional teaching? Mt. 15:3
- But *ye* say, Whosoever shall say to his father or mother, It is a gift, whatsoever it be by which received from me thou wouldest be profited: Mt. 15:5
- And having called to him the crowd, he said to them, Hear and understand: Mt. 15:10
- Then his disciples, coming up, said to him, Dost thou know that the Pharisees, having heard this word, have been offended? Mt. 15:12
- And Peter answering said to him, Expound to us this parable. Mt. 15:15
- and lo, a Canaanitish woman, coming out from those borders, cried to him saying, Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is miserably possessed by a demon. Mt. 15:22
- But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came to him and asked him, saying, Dismiss her, for she cries after us. Mt. 15:23
- But he answering said, I have not been sent save to the lost sheep of Israel's house. Mt. 15:24
- But he answering said, It is not well to take the bread of the children and cast it to the dogs. Mt. 15:26
- Then Jesus answering said to her, O woman, thy faith is great. Be it to thee as thou desirest. And her daughter was healed from *that* hour. Mt. 15:28
- and great crowds came to him, having with them lame, blind, dumb, crippled, and many others, and they cast them at his feet, and he healed them: Mt. 15:30
- But Jesus, having called his disciples to him, said, I have compassion on the crowd, because they have stayed with me already three days and they have not anything they can eat, and I would not send them away fasting lest they should faint on the way. Mt. 15:32
- And his disciples say to him, Whence should we have so many loaves in the wilderness as to satisfy so great a crowd? Mt. 15:33
- And Jesus says to them, How many loaves have ye? But they said, Seven, and a few small fishes. Mt. 15:34
- And he commanded the crowds to lie down on the ground; Mt. 15:35
- and having taken the seven loaves and the fishes, having given thanks, he broke them and gave them to his disciples, and the disciples to the crowd. Mt. 15:36
- And, having dismissed the crowds, he went on board ship and came to the borders of Magadan. Mt. 15:39
- And the Pharisees and Sadducees, coming to him, asked him, tempting him, to shew them a sign out of heaven. Mt. 16:1
- But he answering said to them, When evening is come, ye say, Fine weather, for the sky is red; Mt. 16:2
- and in the morning, A storm to-day, for the sky is red and lowering; ye know how to discern the face of the sky, but ye cannot the signs of the times. Mt. 16:3
- A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, and a sign shall not be given to it save the sign of Jonas. And he left them and went away. Mt. 16:4
- And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread. Mt. 16:5
- And Jesus said to them, See and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees. Mt. 16:6
- How do ye not understand that it was not concerning bread I said to you, Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees? Mt. 16:11
- He says to them, But *ye*, who do ye say that I am? Mt. 16:15
- And Jesus answering said to him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona, for flesh and blood has not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in the heavens. Mt. 16:17
- And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of the heavens; and whatsoever thou mayest bind upon the earth shall be bound in the heavens; and whatsoever thou mayest loose on the earth shall be loosed in the heavens. Mt. 16:19
- Then he enjoined on his disciples that they should say to no man that he was the Christ. Mt. 16:20
- From that time Jesus began to shew to his disciples that he must go away to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised. Mt. 16:21
- And Peter taking him to him began to rebuke him, saying, God be favourable to thee, Lord; this shall in no wise be unto thee. Mt. 16:22
- But turning round, he said to Peter, Get away behind me, Satan; thou art an offence to me, for thy mind is not on the things that are of God, but on the things that are of men. Mt. 16:23
- Then Jesus said to his disciples, If any one desires to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. Mt. 16:24
- For whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake shall find it. Mt. 16:25
- For the Son of man is about to come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to each according to his doings. Mt. 16:27
- and lo, Moses and Elias appeared to them talking with him. Mt. 17:3
- And Peter answering said to Jesus, Lord, it is good we should be here. If thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles: for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elias. Mt. 17:4
- And Jesus coming to them touched them, and said, Rise up, and be not terrified. Mt. 17:7
- And as they descended from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no one, until the Son of man be risen up from among the dead. Mt. 17:9
- And he answering said to them, Elias indeed comes first and will restore all things. Mt. 17:11
- But I say unto you that Elias has already come, and they have not known him, but have done unto him whatever they would. Thus also the Son of man is about to suffer from them. Mt. 17:12
- Then the disciples understood that he spoke to them of John the baptist. Mt. 17:13
- And when they came to the crowd, a man came to him, falling on his knees before him, and saying, Mt. 17:14
- And I brought him to thy disciples, and they were not able to heal him. Mt. 17:16
- And Jesus answering said, O unbelieving and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to me. Mt. 17:17
- Then the disciples, coming to Jesus apart, said to him, Why were not *we* able to cast him out? Mt. 17:19
- And he says to them, Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say to this mountain, Be transported hence there, and it shall transport itself; and nothing shall be impossible to you. Mt. 17:20
- And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men, Mt. 17:22
- And when they came to Capernaum, those who received the didrachmas came to Peter and said, Does your teacher not pay the didrachmas? Mt. 17:24
- Peter says to him, From strangers. Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free. Mt. 17:26
- But that we may not be an offence to them, go to the sea and cast a hook, and take the first fish that comes up, and when thou hast opened its mouth thou wilt find a stater; take that and give it to them for me and thee. Mt. 17:27
- In that hour the disciples came to Jesus saying, Who then is greatest in the kingdom of the heavens? Mt. 18:1
- And Jesus having called a little child to him, set it in their midst, Mt. 18:2
- and said, Verily I say to you, Unless ye are converted and become as little children, ye will not at all enter into the kingdom of the heavens. Mt. 18:3
- Woe to the world because of offences! For it must needs be that offences come; yet woe to that man by whom the offence comes! Mt. 18:7
- And if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut it off and cast it from thee; it is good for thee to enter into life lame or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into eternal fire. Mt. 18:8
- And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out and cast it from thee; it is good for thee to enter into life one-eyed, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire. Mt. 18:9
- For the Son of man has come to save that which was lost. Mt. 18:11
- And if it should come to pass that he find it, verily I say unto you, he rejoices more because of it than because of the ninety and nine not gone astray. Mt. 18:13
- But if he will not listen to them, tell it to the assembly; and if also he will not listen to the assembly, let him be to thee as one of the nations and a tax-gatherer. Mt. 18:17
- Verily I say to you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on the earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatsoever ye shall loose on the earth shall be loosed in heaven. Mt. 18:18
- Again I say to you, that if two of you shall agree on the earth concerning any matter, whatsoever it may be that they shall ask, it shall come to them from my Father who is in the heavens. Mt. 18:19
- Then Peter came to him and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? until seven times? Mt. 18:21
- Jesus says to him, I say not to thee until seven times, but until seventy times seven. Mt. 18:22
- And having begun to reckon, one debtor of ten thousand talents was brought to him. Mt. 18:24
- But he not having anything to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and his children, and everything that he had, and that payment should be made. Mt. 18:25
- But his fellow-bondmen, having seen what had taken place, were greatly grieved, and went and recounted to their lord all that had taken place. Mt. 18:31
- Then his lord, having called him to him, says to him, Wicked bondman! I forgave thee all that debt because thou besoughtest me; Mt. 18:32
- And his lord being angry delivered him to the tormentors till he paid all that was owing to him. Mt. 18:34
- Thus also my heavenly Father shall do to you if ye forgive not from your hearts every one his brother. Mt. 18:35
- And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished these words, he withdrew from Galilee, and came to the coasts of Judaea beyond the Jordan; Mt. 19:1
- And the Pharisees came to him tempting him, and saying, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause? Mt. 19:3
- But he answering said to them, Have ye not read that he who made them, from the beginning made them male and female, Mt. 19:4
- and said, On account of this a man shall leave father and mother, and shall be united to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh? Mt. 19:5
- They say to him, Why then did Moses command to give a letter of divorce and to send her away? Mt. 19:7
- He says to them, Moses, in view of your hardheartedness, allowed you to put away your wives; but from the beginning it was not thus. Mt. 19:8
- His disciples say to him, If the case of the man be so with his wife, it is not good to marry. Mt. 19:10
- And he said to them, All cannot receive this word, but those to whom it has been given; Mt. 19:11
- for there are eunuchs which have been born thus from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs of men; and there are eunuchs who have made eunuchs of themselves for the sake of the kingdom of the heavens. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it. Mt. 19:12
- Then there were brought to him little children that he might lay his hands on them and pray; but the disciples rebuked them. Mt. 19:13
- But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and do not hinder them from coming to me; for the kingdom of the heavens is of such: Mt. 19:14
- And lo, one coming up said to him, Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have life eternal? Mt. 19:16
- And he said to him, What askest thou me concerning goodness? one is good. But if thou wouldest enter into life, keep the commandments. Mt. 19:17
- He says to him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Mt. 19:18
- The young man says to him, All these have I kept; what lack I yet? Mt. 19:20
- Jesus said to him, If thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell what thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me. Mt. 19:21
- And Jesus said to his disciples, Verily I say unto you, A rich man shall with difficulty enter into the kingdom of the heavens; Mt. 19:23
- and again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to enter a needle's eye than a rich man into the kingdom of God. Mt. 19:24
- But Jesus, looking on them, said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Mt. 19:26
- Then Peter answering said to him, Behold, *we* have left all things and have followed thee; what then shall happen to us? Mt. 19:27
- And Jesus said to them, Verily I say unto you, That *ye* who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit down upon his throne of glory, *ye* also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Mt. 19:28
- For the kingdom of the heavens is like a householder who went out with the early morn to hire workmen for his vineyard. Mt. 20:1
- and to them he said, Go also ye into the vineyard, and whatsoever may be just I will give you. And they went their way. Mt. 20:4
- But about the eleventh hour, having gone out, he found others standing, and says to them, Why stand ye here all the day idle? Mt. 20:6
- They say to him, Because no man has hired us. He says to them, Go also ye into the vineyard and whatsoever may be just ye shall receive. Mt. 20:7
- But when the evening was come, the lord of the vineyard says to his steward, Call the workmen and pay them their wages, beginning from the last even to the first. Mt. 20:8
- And when they who came to work about the eleventh hour came, they received each a denarius. Mt. 20:9
- saying, These last have worked one hour, and thou hast made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day and the heat. Mt. 20:12
- But he answering said to one of them, My friend, I do not wrong thee. Didst thou not agree with me for a denarius? Mt. 20:13
- Take what is thine and go. But it is my will to give to this last even as to thee: Mt. 20:14
- is it not lawful for me to do what I will in my own affairs? Is thine eye evil because *I* am good? Mt. 20:15
- And Jesus, going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples with him apart in the way, and said to them, Mt. 20:17
- Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man will be delivered up to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death; Mt. 20:18
- and they will deliver him up to the nations to mock and to scourge and to crucify, and the third day he shall rise again. Mt. 20:19
- Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, doing homage, and asking something of him. Mt. 20:20
- And he said to her, What wilt thou? She says to him, Speak the word that these my two sons may sit, one on thy right hand and one on thy left in thy kingdom. Mt. 20:21
- And Jesus answering said, Ye know not what ye ask. Can ye drink the cup which *I* am about to drink? They say to him, We are able. Mt. 20:22
- And he says to them, Ye shall drink indeed my cup, but to sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine to give, but to those for whom it is prepared of my Father. Mt. 20:23
- But Jesus having called them to him, said, Ye know that the rulers of the nations exercise lordship over them, and the great exercise authority over them. Mt. 20:25
- as indeed the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many. Mt. 20:28
- And Jesus, having stopped, called them and said, What will ye that I shall do to you? Mt. 20:32
- They say to him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened. Mt. 20:33
- And Jesus, moved with compassion, touched their eyes; and immediately their eyes had sight restored to them, and they followed him. Mt. 20:34
- And when they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Bethphage, at the mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, Mt. 21:1
- saying to them, Go into the village over against you, and immediately ye will find an ass tied, and a colt with it; loose them and lead them to me. Mt. 21:2
- And if any one say anything to you, ye shall say, The Lord has need of them, and straightway he will send them. Mt. 21:3
- But all this came to pass, that that might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, Mt. 21:4
- Say to the daughter of Zion, Behold thy King cometh to thee, meek, and mounted upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass. Mt. 21:5
- And the crowds who went before him and who followed cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; blessed be he who comes in the name of the Lord; hosanna in the highest. Mt. 21:9
- And he says to them, It is written, My house shall be called a house of prayer, but *ye* have made it a den of robbers. Mt. 21:13
- And blind and lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them. Mt. 21:14
- And when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonders which he wrought, and the children crying in the temple and saying, Hosanna to the Son of David, they were indignant, Mt. 21:15
- and said to him, Hearest thou what these say? And Jesus says to them, Yea; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise? Mt. 21:16
- And leaving them he went forth out of the city to Bethany, and there he passed the night. Mt. 21:17
- And seeing one fig-tree in the way, he came to it and found on it nothing but leaves only. And he says to it, Let there be never more fruit of thee for ever. And the fig-tree was immediately dried up. Mt. 21:19
- And Jesus answering said to them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and do not doubt, not only shall ye do what is done to the fig-tree, but even if ye should say to this mountain, Be thou taken away and be thou cast into the sea, it shall come to pass. Mt. 21:21
- And when he came into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, saying, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority? Mt. 21:23
- And Jesus answering said to them, *I* also will ask you one thing, which if ye tell me, *I* also will tell you by what authority I do these things: Mt. 21:24
- The baptism of John, whence was it? of heaven or of men? And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we should say, Of heaven, he will say to us, Why then have ye not believed him? Mt. 21:25
- And answering Jesus they said, We do not know. *He* also said to them, Neither do *I* tell you by what authority I do these things. Mt. 21:27
- But what think ye? A man had two children, and coming to the first he said, Child, go to-day, work in my vineyard. Mt. 21:28
- And coming to the second he said likewise; and he answering said, *I* go, sir, and went not. Mt. 21:30
- Which of the two did the will of the father? They say to him, The first. Jesus says to them, Verily I say unto you that the tax-gatherers and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you. Mt. 21:31
- For John came to you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not; but the tax-gatherers and the harlots believed him; but *ye* when ye saw it repented not yourselves afterwards to believe him. Mt. 21:32
- Hear another parable: There was a householder who planted a vineyard, and made a fence round it, and dug a winepress in it, and built a tower, and let it out to husbandmen, and left the country. Mt. 21:33
- But when the time of fruit drew near, he sent his bondmen to the husbandmen to receive his fruits. Mt. 21:34
- Again he sent other bondmen more than the first, and they did to them in like manner. Mt. 21:36
- And at last he sent to them his son, saying, They will have respect for my son. Mt. 21:37
- When therefore the lord of the vineyard comes, what shall he do to those husbandmen? Mt. 21:40
- They say to him, He will miserably destroy those evil men, and let out the vineyard to other husbandmen, who shall render him the fruits in their seasons. Mt. 21:41
- Jesus says to them, Have ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which they that builded rejected, this has become the corner-stone: this is of the Lord, and it is wonderful in our eyes? Mt. 21:42
- Therefore I say to you, that the kingdom of God shall be taken from you and shall be given to a nation producing the fruits of it. Mt. 21:43
- And he that falls on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder. Mt. 21:44
- And seeking to lay hold of him, they were afraid of the crowds, because they held him for a prophet. Mt. 21:46
- And Jesus answering spoke to them again in parables, saying, Mt. 22:1
- and sent his bondmen to call the persons invited to the wedding feast, and they would not come. Mt. 22:3
- Again he sent other bondmen, saying, Say to the persons invited, Behold, I have prepared my dinner; my oxen and my fatted beasts are killed, and all things ready; come to the wedding feast. Mt. 22:4
- But they made light of it, and went, one to his own land, and another to his commerce. Mt. 22:5
- Then he says to his bondmen, The wedding feast is ready, but those invited were not worthy; Mt. 22:8
- go therefore into the thoroughfares of the highways, and as many as ye shall find invite to the wedding feast. Mt. 22:9
- And the king, having gone in to see the guests, beheld there a man not clothed with a wedding garment. Mt. 22:11
- And he says to him, My friend, how camest thou in here not having on a wedding garment? But he was speechless. Mt. 22:12
- Then said the king to the servants, Bind him feet and hands, and take him away, and cast him out into the outer darkness: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. Mt. 22:13
- And they send out to him their disciples with the Herodians, saying, Teacher, we know that thou art true and teachest the way of God in truth, and carest not for any one, for thou regardest not men's person; Mt. 22:16
- tell us therefore what thou thinkest: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? Mt. 22:17
- Shew me the money of the tribute. And they presented to him a denarius. Mt. 22:19
- And he says to them, Whose is this image and superscription? Mt. 22:20
- They say to him, Caesar's. Then he says to them, Pay then what is Caesar's to Caesar, and what is God's to God. Mt. 22:21
- On that day came to him Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection; and they demanded of him, Mt. 22:23
- saying, Teacher, Moses said, If any one die, not having children, his brother shall marry his wife and shall raise up seed to his brother. Mt. 22:24
- Now there were with us seven brethren; and the first having married died, and not having seed, left his wife to his brother. Mt. 22:25
- And Jesus answering said to them, Ye err, not knowing the scriptures nor the power of God. Mt. 22:29
- But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, Mt. 22:31
- But the Pharisees, having heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, were gathered together. Mt. 22:34
- And he said to him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy understanding. Mt. 22:37
- saying, What think ye concerning the Christ? whose son is he? They say to him, David's. Mt. 22:42
- He says to them, How then does David in Spirit call him Lord, saying, Mt. 22:43
- The Lord said to my Lord, Sit on my right hand until I put thine enemies under thy feet? Mt. 22:44
- And no one was able to answer him a word, nor did any one dare from that day to question him any more. Mt. 22:46
- Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples, Mt. 23:1
- but bind burdens heavy and hard to bear, and lay them on the shoulders of men, but will not move them with their finger. Mt. 23:4
- And all their works they do to be seen of men: for they make broad their phylacteries and enlarge the borders of their garments, Mt. 23:5
- and salutations in the market-places, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. Mt. 23:7
- But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye shut up the kingdom of the heavens before men; for *ye* do not enter, nor do ye suffer those that are entering to go in. Mt. 23:13
- Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye compass the sea and the dry land to make one proselyte, and when he is become such, ye make him twofold more the son of hell than yourselves. Mt. 23:15
- Woe to you, blind guides, who say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor. Mt. 23:16
- Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye pay tithes of mint and anise and cummin, and ye have left aside the weightier matters of the law, judgment and mercy and faith: these ye ought to have done and not have left those aside. Mt. 23:23
- Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the dish, but within they are full of rapine and intemperance. Mt. 23:25
- Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye are like whited sepulchres, which appear beautiful outwardly, but within are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness. Mt. 23:27
- Thus also *ye*, outwardly ye appear righteous to men, but within are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness. Mt. 23:28
- Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets and adorn the tombs of the just, Mt. 23:29
- Therefore, behold, *I* send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes; and some of them ye will kill and crucify, and some of them ye will scourge in your synagogues, and will persecute from city to city; Mt. 23:34
- so that all righteous blood shed upon the earth should come upon *you*, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar. Mt. 23:35
- And Jesus went forth and went away from the temple, and his disciples came to him to point out to him the buildings of the temple. Mt. 24:1
- And he answering said to them, Do ye not see all these things? Verily I say to you, Not a stone shall be left here upon a stone which shall not be thrown down. Mt. 24:2
- And as he was sitting upon the mount of Olives the disciples came to him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be, and what is the sign of thy coming and the completion of the age? Mt. 24:3
- And Jesus answering said to them, See that no one mislead you. Mt. 24:4
- Then shall they deliver you up to tribulation, and shall kill you; and ye will be hated of all the nations for my name's sake. Mt. 24:9
- but he that has endured to the end, *he* shall be saved. Mt. 24:13
- And these glad tidings of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole habitable earth, for a witness to all the nations, and then shall come the end. Mt. 24:14
- then let those who are in Judaea flee to the mountains; Mt. 24:16
- let not him that is on the house come down to take the things out of his house; Mt. 24:17
- and let not him that is in the field turn back to take his garment. Mt. 24:18
- But woe to those that are with child, and those that give suck in those days. Mt. 24:19
- Then if any one say to you, Behold, here is the Christ, or here, believe it not. Mt. 24:23
- For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall give great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect. Mt. 24:24
- If therefore they say to you, Behold, he is in the desert, go not forth; behold, he is in the inner chambers, do not believe it. Mt. 24:26
- For as the lightning goes forth from the east and shines to the west, so shall be the coming of the Son of man. Mt. 24:27
- And he shall send his angels with a great sound of trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the one extremity of the heavens to the other extremity of them. Mt. 24:31
- Verily I say to you, This generation will not have passed away until all these things shall have taken place. Mt. 24:34
- But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have watched and not have suffered his house to be dug through into. Mt. 24:43
- Who then is the faithful and prudent bondman whom his lord has set over his household, to give them food in season? Mt. 24:45
- But if that evil bondman should say in his heart, My lord delays to come, Mt. 24:48
- and begin to beat his fellow-bondmen, and eat and drink with the drunken; Mt. 24:49
- Then shall the kingdom of the heavens be made like to ten virgins that having taken their torches, went forth to meet the bridegroom. Mt. 25:1
- But in the middle of the night there was a cry, Behold, the bridegroom; go forth to meet him. Mt. 25:6
- And the foolish said to the prudent, Give us of your oil, for our torches are going out. Mt. 25:8
- But the prudent answered saying, We cannot, lest it might not suffice for us and for you. Go rather to those that sell, and buy for yourselves. Mt. 25:9
- But as they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and the ones that were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut. Mt. 25:10
- Afterwards come also the rest of the virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us; Mt. 25:11
- For it is as if a man going away out of a country called his own bondmen and delivered to them his substance. Mt. 25:14
- And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to each according to his particular ability, and immediately went away out of the country. Mt. 25:15
- And he that had received the five talents came to him and brought five other talents, saying, My lord, thou deliveredst me five talents; behold, I have gained five other talents besides them. Mt. 25:20
- His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful bondman, thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things: enter into the joy of thy lord. Mt. 25:21
- And he also that had received the two talents came to him and said, My lord, thou deliveredst me two talents; behold, I have gained two other talents besides them. Mt. 25:22
- His lord said to him, Well, good and faithful bondman, thou wast faithful over a few things, I will set thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Mt. 25:23
- And he also that had received the one talent coming to him said, My lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou hadst not sowed, and gathering from where thou hadst not scattered, Mt. 25:24
- And his lord answering said to him, Wicked and slothful bondman, thou knewest that I reap where I had not sowed, and gather from where I had not scattered; Mt. 25:26
- thou oughtest then to have put my money to the money-changers, and when I came I should have got what is mine with interest. Mt. 25:27
- Take therefore the talent from him, and give it to him that has the ten talents: Mt. 25:28
- for to every one that has shall be given, and he shall be in abundance; but from him that has not, that even which he has shall be taken from him. Mt. 25:29
- Then shall the King say to those on his right hand, Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the world's foundation: Mt. 25:34
- for I hungered, and ye gave me to eat; I thirsted, and ye gave me to drink; I was a stranger, and ye took me in; Mt. 25:35
- naked, and ye clothed me; I was ill, and ye visited me; I was in prison, and ye came to me. Mt. 25:36
- Then shall the righteous answer him saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, and nourished thee; or thirsting, and gave thee to drink? Mt. 25:37
- and when saw we thee ill, or in prison, and came to thee? Mt. 25:39
- And the King answering shall say to them, Verily, I say to you, Inasmuch as ye have done it to one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it to me. Mt. 25:40
- Then shall he say also to those on the left, Go from me, cursed, into eternal fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: Mt. 25:41
- for I hungered, and ye gave me not to eat; I thirsted, and ye gave me not to drink; Mt. 25:42
- Then shall *they* also answer saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, or thirsting, or a stranger, or naked, or ill, or in prison, and have not ministered to thee? Mt. 25:44
- Then shall he answer them saying, Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as ye have not done it to one of these least, neither have ye done it to me. Mt. 25:45
- And it came to pass when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said to his disciples, Mt. 26:1
- Ye know that after two days the passover takes place, and the Son of man is delivered up to be crucified. Mt. 26:2
- Then the chief priests and the elders of the people were gathered together to the palace of the high priest who was called Caiaphas, Mt. 26:3
- a woman, having an alabaster flask of very precious ointment, came to him and poured it out upon his head as he lay at table. Mt. 26:7
- But the disciples seeing it became indignant, saying, To what end was this waste? Mt. 26:8
- for this might have been sold for much and been given to the poor. Mt. 26:9
- But Jesus knowing it said to them, Why do ye trouble the woman? for she has wrought a good work toward me. Mt. 26:10
- Verily I say to you, Wheresoever these glad tidings may be preached in the whole world, that also which this woman has done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her. Mt. 26:13
- Then one of the twelve, he who was called Judas Iscariote, went to the chief priests Mt. 26:14
- and said, What are ye willing to give me, and *I* will deliver him up to you? And they appointed to him thirty pieces of silver. Mt. 26:15
- Now on the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover? Mt. 26:17
- And he said, Go into the city unto such a one, and say to him, The Teacher says, My time is near, I will keep the passover in thy house with my disciples. Mt. 26:18
- And as they were eating he said, Verily I say to you, that one of you shall deliver me up. Mt. 26:21
- And being exceedingly grieved they began to say to him, each of them, Is it *I*, Lord? Mt. 26:22
- The Son of man goes indeed, according as it is written concerning him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is delivered up; it were good for that man if he had not been born. Mt. 26:24
- And Judas, who delivered him up, answering said, Is it *I*, Rabbi? He says to him, *Thou* hast said. Mt. 26:25
- And as they were eating, Jesus, having taken the bread and blessed, broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat: this is my body. Mt. 26:26
- And having taken the cup and given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it. Mt. 26:27
- But I say to you, that I will not at all drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father. Mt. 26:29
- And having sung a hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives. Mt. 26:30
- Then saith Jesus to them, All *ye* shall be offended in me during this night. For it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. Mt. 26:31
- But after that I shall be risen, I will go before you to Galilee. Mt. 26:32
- And Peter answering said to him, If all shall be offended in thee, *I* will never be offended. Mt. 26:33
- Jesus said to him, Verily I say to thee, that during this night, before the cock shall crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. Mt. 26:34
- Peter says to him, If I should needs die with thee, I will in no wise deny thee. Likewise said all the disciples also. Mt. 26:35
- Then Jesus comes with them to a place called Gethsemane, and says to the disciples, Sit here until I go away and pray yonder. Mt. 26:36
- And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and deeply depressed. Mt. 26:37
- Then he says to them, My soul is very sorrowful even unto death; remain here and watch with me. Mt. 26:38
- And he comes to the disciples and finds them sleeping, and says to Peter, Thus ye have not been able to watch one hour with me? Mt. 26:40
- Then he comes to the disciples and says to them, Sleep on now and take your rest; behold, the hour has drawn nigh, and the Son of man is delivered up into the hands of sinners. Mt. 26:45
- And immediately coming up to Jesus he said, Hail, Rabbi, and covered him with kisses. Mt. 26:49
- But Jesus said to him, My friend, for what purpose art thou come? Then coming up they laid hands upon Jesus and seized him. Mt. 26:50
- Then saith Jesus to him, Return thy sword to its place; for all who take the sword shall perish by the sword. Mt. 26:52
- In that hour Jesus said to the crowds, Are ye come out as against a robber with swords and sticks to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not seize me. Mt. 26:55
- But all this is come to pass that the scriptures of the prophets may be fulfilled. Then all the disciples left him and fled. Mt. 26:56
- Now they that had seized Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. Mt. 26:57
- And Peter followed him at a distance, even to the palace of the high priest, and entering in sat with the officers to see the end. Mt. 26:58
- And the chief priests and the elders and the whole sanhedrim sought false witness against Jesus, so that they might put him to death. Mt. 26:59
- and said, *He* said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and in three days build it. Mt. 26:61
- And the high priest standing up said to him, Answerest thou nothing? What do these witness against thee? Mt. 26:62
- But Jesus was silent. And the high priest answering said to him, I adjure thee by the living God that thou tell us if *thou* art the Christ the Son of God. Mt. 26:63
- Jesus says to him, *Thou* hast said. Moreover, I say to you, From henceforth ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven. Mt. 26:64
- What think ye? And they answering said, He is liable to the penalty of death. Mt. 26:66
- saying, Prophesy to us, Christ, Who is it who struck thee? Mt. 26:68
- But Peter sat without in the palace-court; and a maid came to him, saying, And *thou* wast with Jesus the Galilaean. Mt. 26:69
- And when he had gone out into the entrance, another maid saw him, and says to those there, This man also was with Jesus the Nazaraean. Mt. 26:71
- And after a little, those who stood there, coming to him, said to Peter, Truly *thou* too art of them, for also thy speech makes thee manifest. Mt. 26:73
- Then he began to curse and to swear, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew. Mt. 26:74
- And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, who had said to him, Before the cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went forth without, and wept bitterly. Mt. 26:75
- And when it was morning all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus so that they might put him to death. Mt. 27:1
- And having bound him they led him away, and delivered him up to Pontius Pilate, the governor. Mt. 27:2
- Then Judas, who delivered him up, seeing that he had been condemned, filled with remorse, returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and the elders, Mt. 27:3
- saying, I have sinned in having delivered up guiltless blood. But they said, What is that to us? see *thou* to that. Mt. 27:4
- And the chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, It is not lawful to cast them into the Corban, since it is the price of blood. Mt. 27:6
- But Jesus stood before the governor. And the governor questioned him, saying, Art *thou* the King of the Jews? And Jesus said to him, Thou sayest. Mt. 27:11
- Then says Pilate to him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee? Mt. 27:13
- Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner to the crowd, whom they would. Mt. 27:15
- They therefore being gathered together, Pilate said to them, Whom will ye that I release to you, Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ? Mt. 27:17
- But, as he was sitting on the judgment-seat, his wife sent to him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that righteous man; for I have suffered to-day many things in a dream because of him. Mt. 27:19
- And the governor answering said to them, Which of the two will ye that I release unto you? And they said, Barabbas. Mt. 27:21
- Pilate says to them, What then shall I do with Jesus, who is called Christ? They all say, Let him be crucified. Mt. 27:22
- And Pilate, seeing that it availed nothing, but that rather a tumult was arising, having taken water, washed his hands before the crowd, saying, I am guiltless of the blood of this righteous one: see *ye* to it. Mt. 27:24
- Then he released to them Barabbas; but Jesus, having scourged him, he delivered up that he might be crucified. Mt. 27:26
- Then the soldiers of the governor, having taken Jesus with them to the praetorium, gathered against him the whole band, Mt. 27:27
- And when they had mocked him, they took the cloak off him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him away to crucify. Mt. 27:31
- And as they went forth they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name; him they compelled to go with them that he might bear his cross. Mt. 27:32
- And having come to a place called Golgotha, which means Place of a skull, Mt. 27:33
- they gave to him to drink vinegar mingled with gall; and having tasted it, he would not drink. Mt. 27:34
- And immediately one of them running and getting a sponge, having filled it with vinegar and fixed it on a reed, gave him to drink. Mt. 27:48
- But the rest said, Let be; let us see if Elias comes to save him. Mt. 27:49
- And lo, the veil of the temple was rent in two from the top to the bottom, and the earth was shaken, and the rocks were rent, Mt. 27:51
- And there were there many women beholding from afar off, who had followed Jesus from Galilee ministering to him, Mt. 27:55
- Now when even was come there came a rich man of Arimathaea, his name Joseph, who also himself was a disciple to Jesus. Mt. 27:57
- *He*, going to Pilate, begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be given up. Mt. 27:58
- and laid it in his new tomb which he had hewn in the rock; and having rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, went away. Mt. 27:60
- Now on the morrow, which is after the preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees came together to Pilate, Mt. 27:62
- saying, Sir, we have called to mind that that deceiver said when he was still alive, After three days I arise. Mt. 27:63
- Command therefore that the sepulchre be secured until the third day, lest his disciples should come and steal him away, and say to the people, He is risen from the dead; and the last error shall be worse than the first. Mt. 27:64
- And Pilate said to them, Ye have a watch: go, secure it as well as ye know how. Mt. 27:65
- Now late on sabbath, as it was the dusk of the next day after sabbath, came Mary of Magdala and the other Mary to look at the sepulchre. Mt. 28:1
- And the angel answering said to the women, Fear not *ye*, for I know that ye seek Jesus the crucified one. Mt. 28:5
- And go quickly and say to his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and behold, he goes before you into Galilee, there shall ye see him. Behold, I have told you. Mt. 28:7
- And going out quickly from the tomb with fear and great joy, they ran to bring his disciples word. Mt. 28:8
- And as they went to bring his disciples word, behold also, Jesus met them, saying, Hail! And they coming up took him by the feet, and did him homage. Mt. 28:9
- Then Jesus says to them, Fear not; go, bring word to my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there they shall see me. Mt. 28:10
- And as they went, behold, some of the watch went into the city, and brought word to the chief priests of all that had taken place. Mt. 28:11
- And having assembled with the elders, and having taken counsel, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers, Mt. 28:12
- And if this should come to the hearing of the governor, *we* will persuade him, and save *you* from all anxiety. Mt. 28:14
- But the eleven disciples went into Galilee to the mountain which Jesus had appointed them. Mt. 28:16
- And when they saw him, they did homage to him: but some doubted. Mt. 28:17
- And Jesus coming up spoke to them, saying, All power has been given me in heaven and upon earth. Mt. 28:18
- Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptising them to the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit; Mt. 28:19
- teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have enjoined you. And behold, *I* am with you all the days, until the completion of the age. Mt. 28:20
- And there went out to him all the district of Judaea, and all they of Jerusalem, and were baptised by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. Mk. 1:5
- And he preached, saying, There comes he that is mightier than I after me, the thong of whose sandals I am not fit to stoop down and unloose. Mk. 1:7
- And it came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptised by John at the Jordan. Mk. 1:9
- And he was in the wilderness forty days tempted by Satan, and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered to him. Mk. 1:13

- But evening being come, when the sun had gone down, they brought to him all that were suffering, and those possessed by demons; Mk. 1:32
- And he healed many suffering from various diseases; and he cast out many demons, and did not suffer the demons to speak because they knew him. Mk. 1:34
- and having found him, they say to him, All seek thee. Mk. 1:37

- And there comes to him a leper, beseeching him, and falling on his knees to him, and saying to him, If thou wilt thou canst cleanse me. Mk. 1:40
- But Jesus, moved with compassion, having stretched out his hand, touched him, and says to him, I will, be thou cleansed. Mk. 1:41
- and says to him, See thou say nothing to any one, but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing what Moses ordained, for a testimony to them. Mk. 1:44
- But he, having gone forth, began to proclaim it much, and to spread the matter abroad, so that he could no longer enter openly into the city, but was without in desert places, and they came to him from every side. Mk. 1:45
- and straightway many were gathered together, so that there was no longer any room, not even at the door; and he spoke the word to them. Mk. 2:2
- And there come to him men bringing a paralytic, borne by four; Mk. 2:3
- and, not being able to get near to him on account of the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was, and having dug it up they let down the couch on which the paralytic lay. Mk. 2:4
- But Jesus, seeing their faith, says to the paralytic, Child, thy sins are forgiven thee. Mk. 2:5
- Why does this man thus speak? he blasphemes. Who is able to forgive sins except God alone? Mk. 2:7
- And straightway Jesus, knowing in his spirit that they are reasoning thus within themselves, said to them, Why reason ye these things in your hearts? Mk. 2:8
- Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and take up thy couch and walk? Mk. 2:9

- And the disciples of John and the Pharisees were fasting; and they come and say to him, Why do the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not? Mk. 2:18
- And Jesus said to them, Can the sons of the bride-chamber fast while the bridegroom is with them? As long as they have the bridegroom with them they cannot fast. Mk. 2:19

- how he entered into the house of God, in the section of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the shew-bread, which it is not lawful unless for the priests to eat, and gave even to those that were with him? Mk. 2:26
- And he said to them, The sabbath was made on account of man, not man on account of the sabbath; Mk. 2:27
- And he says to the man who had his hand dried up, Rise up and come into the midst. Mk. 3:3
- And he says to them, Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill? But they were silent. Mk. 3:4
- And looking round upon them with anger, distressed at the hardening of their heart, he says to the man, Stretch out thy hand. And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored. Mk. 3:5
- And Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea; and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea, Mk. 3:7
- and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea and beyond the Jordan; and they of around Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, having heard what things he did, came to him. Mk. 3:8
- And he spoke to his disciples, in order that a little ship should wait upon him on account of the crowd, that they might not press upon him. Mk. 3:9
- And he goes up into the mountain, and calls whom he himself would, and they went to him. Mk. 3:13
- And he appointed twelve that they might be with him, and that he might send them to preach, Mk. 3:14
- and to have power to heal diseases, and to cast out demons. Mk. 3:15
- And he gave to Simon the surname of Peter; Mk. 3:16
- and Judas Iscariote, who also delivered him up. And they come to the house. Mk. 3:19
- And his relatives having heard of it went out to lay hold on him, for they said, He is out of his mind. Mk. 3:21
- And having called them to him, he said to them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan? Mk. 3:23
- Verily I say unto you, that all sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and all the injurious speeches with which they may speak injuriously; Mk. 3:28
- but whosoever shall speak injuriously against the Holy Spirit, to eternity has no forgiveness; but lies under the guilt of an everlasting sin; Mk. 3:29
- And his brethren and his mother come, and standing without sent to him calling him. Mk. 3:31
- And a crowd sat around him. And they said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren seek thee without. Mk. 3:32
- And again he began to teach by the sea. And a great crowd was gathered together to him, so that going on board ship he sat in the sea, and all the crowd were close to the sea on the land. Mk. 4:1
- And he taught them many things in parables. And he said to them in his doctrine, Mk. 4:2
- Hearken: Behold, the sower went forth to sow. Mk. 4:3
- And it came to pass as he sowed, one fell by the wayside, and the birds came and devoured it. Mk. 4:4
- And he said, He that has ears to hear, let him hear. Mk. 4:9
- And when he was alone, those about him with the twelve asked him as to the parables. Mk. 4:10
- And he said to them, To you is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to them who are without, all things are done in parables, Mk. 4:11
- And he says to them, Do ye not know this parable? and how will ye be acquainted with all the parables? Mk. 4:13
- And he said to them, Does the lamp come that it should be put under the bushel or under the couch? Is it not that it should be set upon the lamp-stand? Mk. 4:21
- For there is nothing hidden which shall not be made manifest; nor does any secret thing take place, but that it should come to light. Mk. 4:22
- If any one have ears to hear, let him hear. Mk. 4:23
- And he said to them, Take heed what ye hear; with what measure ye mete, it shall be meted to you; and there shall be more added to you. Mk. 4:24
- For whosoever has, to him shall be given; and he who has not, even what he has shall be taken from him. Mk. 4:25
- As to a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown upon the earth, is less than all seeds which are upon the earth, Mk. 4:31
- And with many such parables he spoke the word to them, as they were able to hear, Mk. 4:33
- but without a parable spoke he not to them; and in private he explained all things to his disciples. Mk. 4:34
- And on that day, when evening was come, he says to them, Let us go over to the other side: Mk. 4:35
- And *he* was in the stern sleeping on the cushion. And they awake him up and say to him, Teacher, dost thou not care that we are perishing? Mk. 4:38
- And awaking up he rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Silence; be mute. And the wind fell, and there was a great calm. Mk. 4:39
- And he said to them, Why are ye thus fearful? how is it ye have not faith? Mk. 4:40
- And they feared with great fear, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him? Mk. 4:41
- And they came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the Gadarenes. Mk. 5:1
- who had his dwelling in the tombs; and no one was able to bind him, not even with chains; Mk. 5:3
- because he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn asunder by him, and the fetters were shattered; and no one was able to subdue him. Mk. 5:4
- and crying with a loud voice he says, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I adjure thee by God, torment me not. Mk. 5:7
- For he said to him, Come forth, unclean spirit, out of the man. Mk. 5:8
- And he asked him, What is thy name? And he says to him, Legion is my name, because we are many. Mk. 5:9
- And those that were feeding them fled and reported it in the city and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that had taken place. Mk. 5:14
- And they come to Jesus, and they see the possessed of demons sitting and clothed and sensible, him that had had the legion: and they were afraid. Mk. 5:15
- And they that had seen it related to them how it had happened to the man possessed by demons, and concerning the swine. Mk. 5:16
- And they began to beg him to depart from their coasts. Mk. 5:17
- And he suffered him not, but says to him, Go to thine home to thine own people, and tell them how great things the Lord has done for thee, and has had mercy on thee. Mk. 5:19
- And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him; and all wondered. Mk. 5:20
- And Jesus having passed over in the ship again to the other side, a great crowd gathered to him; and he was by the sea. Mk. 5:21
- And his disciples said to him, Thou seest the crowd pressing on thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? Mk. 5:31
- And he looked round about to see her who had done this. Mk. 5:32
- And he said to her, Daughter, thy faith has healed thee; go in peace, and be well of thy scourge. Mk. 5:34
- But Jesus immediately, having heard the word spoken, says to the ruler of the synagogue, Fear not; only believe. Mk. 5:36
- And he suffered no one to accompany him save Peter and James, and John the brother of James. Mk. 5:37
- And he comes to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and sees the tumult, and people weeping and wailing greatly. Mk. 5:38
- And entering in he says to them, Why do ye make a tumult and weep? the child has not died, but sleeps. Mk. 5:39
- And having laid hold of the hand of the child, he says to her, Talitha koumi, which is, interpreted, Damsel, I say to thee, Arise. Mk. 5:41
- And he charged them much that no one should know this; and he desired that something should be given her to eat. Mk. 5:43
- And he went out thence and came to his own country, and his disciples follow him. Mk. 6:1
- And when sabbath was come he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing were amazed, saying, Whence has this man these things? and what is the wisdom that is given to him, and such works of power are done by his hands? Mk. 6:2
- But Jesus said to them, A prophet is not despised save in his own country, and among his kinsmen, and in his own house. Mk. 6:4
- And he calls the twelve to him; and he began to send them out two and two, and gave to them power over the unclean spirits; Mk. 6:7
- And he said to them, Wheresoever ye shall enter into a house, there remain till ye shall go thence. Mk. 6:10
- And whatsoever place shall not receive you nor hear you, departing thence, shake off the dust which is under your feet for a testimony to them. Mk. 6:11
- For John said to Herod, It is not lawful for thee to have the wife of thy brother. Mk. 6:18
- But Herodias kept it in her mind against him, and wished to kill him, and could not: Mk. 6:19
- And a holiday being come, when Herod, on his birthday, made a supper to his grandees, and to the chiliarchs, and the chief men of Galilee; Mk. 6:21
- and the daughter of the same Herodias having come in, and danced, pleased Herod and those that were with him at table; and the king said to the damsel, Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt and I will give it thee. Mk. 6:22
- And he swore to her, Whatsoever thou shalt ask me I will give thee, to half of my kingdom. Mk. 6:23
- And she went out, and said to her mother, What should I ask? And she said, The head of John the baptist. Mk. 6:24
- And immediately going in with haste to the king, she asked saying, I desire that thou give me directly upon a dish the head of John the baptist. Mk. 6:25
- And immediately the king, having sent one of the guard, ordered his head to be brought. And he went out and beheaded him in the prison, Mk. 6:27
- and brought his head upon a dish, and gave it to the damsel, and the damsel gave it to her mother. Mk. 6:28
- And the apostles are gathered together to Jesus. And they related to him all things, both what they had done and what they had taught. Mk. 6:30
- And he said to them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place and rest a little. For those coming and those going were many, and they had not leisure even to eat. Mk. 6:31
- And on leaving the ship Jesus saw a great crowd, and he was moved with compassion for them, because they were as sheep not having a shepherd. And he began to teach them many things. Mk. 6:34
- And when it was already late in the day, his disciples coming to him say, The place is desert, and it is already late in the day; Mk. 6:35
- And he answering said to them, Give *ye* them to eat. And they say to him, Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them to eat? Mk. 6:37
- And he says to them, How many loaves have ye? Go and see. And when they knew they say, Five, and two fishes. Mk. 6:38
- And he ordered them to make them all sit down by companies on the green grass. Mk. 6:39
- And having taken the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven, he blessed, and broke the loaves, and gave them to his disciples that they might set them before them. And the two fishes he divided among all. Mk. 6:41
- And immediately he compelled his disciples to go on board ship, and to go on before to the other side to Bethsaida, while *he* sends the crowd away. Mk. 6:45
- And, having dismissed them, he departed into the mountain to pray. Mk. 6:46
- And seeing them labouring in rowing, for the wind was contrary to them, about the fourth watch of the night he comes to them walking on the sea, and would have passed them by. Mk. 6:48
- For all saw him and were troubled. And immediately he spoke with them, and says to them, Be of good courage: it is *I*; be not afraid. Mk. 6:50
- And he went up to them into the ship, and the wind fell. And they were exceedingly beyond measure astonished in themselves and wondered; Mk. 6:51
- And having passed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret and made the shore. Mk. 6:53
- they ran through that whole country around, and began to carry about those that were ill on couches, where they heard that he was. Mk. 6:55
- And the Pharisees and some of the scribes, coming from Jerusalem, are gathered together to him, Mk. 7:1
- and on coming from the market-place, unless they are washed, they do not eat; and there are many other things which they have received to hold, the washing of cups and vessels, and brazen utensils, and couches), Mk. 7:4
- then the Pharisees and the scribes ask him, Why do thy disciples not walk according to what has been delivered by the ancients, but eat the bread with defiled hands? Mk. 7:5
- But he answering said to them, Well did Esaias prophesy concerning you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honour me with their lips, but their heart is far away from me. Mk. 7:6
- For, leaving the commandment of God, ye hold what is delivered by men to keep -- washings of vessels and cups, and many other such like things ye do. Mk. 7:8
- And he said to them, Well do ye set aside the commandment of God, that ye may observe what is delivered by yourselves to keep. Mk. 7:9
- But *ye* say, If a man say to his father or his mother, It is corban (that is, gift), whatsoever thou mightest have profit from me by ... Mk. 7:11
- And ye no longer suffer him to do anything for his father or his mother; Mk. 7:12
- And having called again the crowd, he said to them, Hear me, all of you, and understand: Mk. 7:14
- If any one have ears to hear, let him hear. Mk. 7:16
- And he says to them, Are *ye* also thus unintelligent? Do ye not perceive that all that is outside entering into the man cannot defile him, Mk. 7:18
- But Jesus said to her, Suffer the children to be first filled; for it is not right to take the children's bread and cast it to the dogs. Mk. 7:27
- But she answered and says to him, Yea, Lord; for even the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs. Mk. 7:28
- And he said to her, Because of this word, go thy way, the demon is gone out of thy daughter. Mk. 7:29
- And having gone away to her house she found the demon gone out, and her daughter lying on the bed. Mk. 7:30
- And again having left the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he came to the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the coasts of Decapolis. Mk. 7:31
- And they bring to him a deaf man who could not speak right, and they beseech him that he might lay his hand on him. Mk. 7:32
- And having taken him away from the crowd apart, he put his fingers to his ears; and having spit, he touched his tongue; Mk. 7:33
- and looking up to heaven he groaned, and says to him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened. Mk. 7:34
- And he charged them that they should speak to no one of it. But so much the more *he* charged them, so much the more abundantly *they* proclaimed it; Mk. 7:36
- and they were astonished above measure, saying, He does all things well; he makes both the deaf to hear, and the speechless to speak. Mk. 7:37
- In those days, there being again a great crowd, and they having nothing that they could eat, having called his disciples to him, he says to them, Mk. 8:1
- and if I should dismiss them to their home fasting, they will faint on the way; for some of them are come from far. Mk. 8:3
- And his disciples answered him, Whence shall one be able to satisfy these with bread here in a desert place? Mk. 8:4
- And he commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. And having taken the seven loaves, he gave thanks, and broke them and gave them to his disciples, that they might set them before them; and they set them before the crowd. Mk. 8:6
- And they had a few small fishes, and having blessed them, he desired these also to be set before them. Mk. 8:7
- And the Pharisees went out and began to dispute against him, seeking from him a sign from heaven, tempting him. Mk. 8:11
- And groaning in his spirit, he says, Why does this generation seek a sign? Verily I say unto you, A sign shall in no wise be given to this generation. Mk. 8:12
- And he left them, and going again on board ship, went away to the other side. Mk. 8:13
- And they forgot to take bread, and save one loaf, they had not any with them in the ship. Mk. 8:14
- And Jesus knowing it, says to them, Why reason ye because ye have no bread? Do ye not yet perceive nor understand? Have ye your heart yet hardened? Mk. 8:17
- When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many hand-baskets full of fragments took ye up? They say to him, Twelve. Mk. 8:19
- And he said to them, How do ye not yet understand? Mk. 8:21
- And he comes to Bethsaida; and they bring him a blind man, and beseech him that he might touch him. Mk. 8:22
- And he sent him to his house, saying, Neither enter into the village, nor tell it to any one in the village. Mk. 8:26
- And he asked them, But *ye*, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering says to him, *Thou* art the Christ. Mk. 8:29
- And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and of the chief priests and of the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. Mk. 8:31
- And he spoke the thing openly. And Peter, taking him to him, began to rebuke him. Mk. 8:32
- And having called the crowd with his disciples, he said to them, Whoever desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me. Mk. 8:34
- For whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's shall save it. Mk. 8:35
- And he said to them, Verily I say unto you, There are some of those standing here that shall not taste death until they shall have seen the kingdom of God come in power. Mk. 9:1
- And there appeared to them Elias with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus. Mk. 9:4
- And Peter answering says to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good that we should be here; and let us make three tabernacles, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elias one. Mk. 9:5
- And as they descended from the mountain, he charged them that they should relate to no one what they had seen, unless when the Son of man should be risen from among the dead. Mk. 9:9
- And he answering said to them, Elias indeed, having first come, restores all things; and how is it written of the Son of man that he must suffer much, and be set at nought: Mk. 9:12
- but I say unto you that Elias also is come, and they have done to him whatever they would, as it is written of him. Mk. 9:13
- And when he came to the disciples he saw a great crowd around them, and scribes disputing against them. Mk. 9:14
- And immediately all the crowd seeing him were amazed, and running to him, saluted him. Mk. 9:15
- And one out of the crowd answered him, Teacher, I brought to thee my son, who has a dumb spirit; Mk. 9:17
- and wheresoever it seizes him it tears him, and he foams and gnashes his teeth, and he is withering away. And I spoke to thy disciples, that they might cast him out, and they could not. Mk. 9:18
- But he answering them says, O unbelieving generation! how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him to me. Mk. 9:19
- And they brought him to him. And seeing him the spirit immediately tore him; and falling upon the earth he rolled foaming. Mk. 9:20
- And Jesus said to him, The 'if thou couldst' is if thou couldst believe: all things are possible to him that believes. Mk. 9:23
- But Jesus, seeing that the crowd was running up together, rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, *I* command thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him. Mk. 9:25
- And he said to them, This kind can go out by nothing but by prayer and fasting. Mk. 9:29
- for he taught his disciples and said to them, The Son of man is delivered into men's hands, and they shall kill him; and having been killed, after three days he shall rise again. Mk. 9:31
- But they understood not the saying, and feared to ask him. Mk. 9:32
- And he came to Capernaum, and being in the house, he asked them, Of what were ye reasoning by the way? Mk. 9:33
- And sitting down he called the twelve; and he says to them, If any one would be first, he shall be last of all, and minister of all. Mk. 9:35
- And taking a little child he set it in their midst, and having taken it in his arms he said to them, Mk. 9:36
- But Jesus said, Forbid him not; for there is no one who shall do a miracle in my name, and be able soon after to speak ill of me; Mk. 9:39
- For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye are Christ's, verily I say unto you, he shall in no wise lose his reward. Mk. 9:41
- And whosoever shall be a snare to one of the little ones who believe in me, it were better for him if a millstone were hung about his neck, and he cast into the sea. Mk. 9:42
- And if thy hand serve as a snare to thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having thy two hands to go away into hell, into the fire unquenchable; Mk. 9:43
- And if thy foot serve as a snare to thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having thy two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire unquenchable; Mk. 9:45
- And if thine eye serve as a snare to thee, cast it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire, Mk. 9:47
- And rising up thence he comes into the coasts of Judaea, and the other side of the Jordan. And again crowds come together to him, and, as he was accustomed, again he taught them. Mk. 10:1
- And Pharisees coming to him asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? (tempting him). Mk. 10:2
- But he answering said to them, What did Moses command you? Mk. 10:3
- And they said, Moses allowed to write a bill of divorce, and to put away. Mk. 10:4
- And Jesus answering said to them, In view of your hard-heartedness he wrote this commandment for you; Mk. 10:5
- For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be united to his wife, Mk. 10:7
- And he says to them, Whosoever shall put away his wife and shall marry another, commits adultery against her. Mk. 10:11
- And they brought little children to him that he might touch them. But the disciples rebuked those that brought them. Mk. 10:13
- But Jesus seeing it, was indignant, and said to them, Suffer the little children to come to me; forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God. Mk. 10:14
- Verily I say to you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall in no wise enter into it. Mk. 10:15
- And as he went forth into the way, a person ran up to him, and kneeling to him asked him, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? Mk. 10:17
- But Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? no one is good but one, that is God. Mk. 10:18
- And he answering said to him, Teacher, all these things have I kept from my youth. Mk. 10:20
- And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said to him, One thing lackest thou: go, sell whatever thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross. Mk. 10:21
- And Jesus looking around says to his disciples, How difficultly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! Mk. 10:23
- And the disciples were amazed at his words. And Jesus again answering says to them, Children, how difficult it is that those who trust in riches should enter into the kingdom of God! Mk. 10:24
- It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. Mk. 10:25
- And they were exceedingly astonished, saying to one another, And who can be saved? Mk. 10:26
- Peter began to say to him, Behold, *we* have left all things and have followed thee. Mk. 10:28
- Jesus answering said, Verily I say to you, There is no one who has left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake and for the sake of the gospel, Mk. 10:29
- And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going on before them; and they were amazed, and were afraid as they followed. And taking the twelve again to him, he began to tell them what was going to happen to him: Mk. 10:32
- Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be delivered up to the chief priests and to the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him up to the nations: Mk. 10:33
- And there come to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying to him, Teacher, we would that whatsoever we may ask thee, thou wouldst do it for us. Mk. 10:35
- And he said to them, What would ye that I should do for you? Mk. 10:36
- And they said to him, Give to us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left hand, in thy glory. Mk. 10:37
- And Jesus said to them, Ye do not know what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup which *I* drink, or be baptised with the baptism that *I* am baptised with? Mk. 10:38
- And they said to him, We are able. And Jesus said to them, The cup that *I* drink ye will drink and with the baptism that *I* am baptised with ye will be baptised, Mk. 10:39
- but to sit on my right hand or on my left is not mine to give, but for those for whom it is prepared. Mk. 10:40
- And the ten having heard of it, began to be indignant about James and John. Mk. 10:41
- But Jesus having called them to him, says to them, Ye know that those who are esteemed to rule over the nations exercise lordship over them; and their great men exercise authority over them; Mk. 10:42
- For also the Son of man did not come to be ministered to, but to minister, and give his life a ransom for many. Mk. 10:45
- And they come to Jericho, and as he was going out from Jericho, and his disciples and a large crowd, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, the blind man, sat by the wayside begging. Mk. 10:46
- And having heard that it was Jesus the Nazaraean, he began to cry out and to say, O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me. Mk. 10:47
- And Jesus, standing still, desired him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying to him, Be of good courage, rise up, he calls thee. Mk. 10:49
- And, throwing away his garment, he started up and came to Jesus. Mk. 10:50
- And Jesus answering says to him, What wilt thou that I shall do to thee? And the blind man said to him, Rabboni, that I may see. Mk. 10:51
- And Jesus said to him, Go, thy faith has healed thee. And he saw immediately, and followed him in the way. Mk. 10:52
- And when they draw near to Jerusalem, to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount of Olives, he sends two of his disciples, Mk. 11:1
- and says to them, Go into the village which is over against you, and immediately on entering into it ye will find a colt tied, upon which no child of man has ever sat: loose it and lead it here. Mk. 11:2
- And if any one say to you, Why do ye this? say, The Lord has need of it; and straightway he sends it hither. Mk. 11:3
- And they departed, and found a colt bound to the door without at the crossway, and they loose him. Mk. 11:4
- And some of those who stood there said to them, What are ye doing, loosing the colt? Mk. 11:5
- And they said to them as Jesus had commanded. And they let them do it. Mk. 11:6
- And they led the colt to Jesus, and cast their clothes upon it, and he sat on it; Mk. 11:7
- And he entered into Jerusalem and into the temple; and having looked round on all things, the hour being already late, he went out to Bethany with the twelve. Mk. 11:11
- And seeing from afar off a fig-tree which had leaves, he came, if perhaps he might find something on it. And having come up to it he found nothing but leaves, for it was not the time of figs. Mk. 11:13
- And answering he said to it, Let no one eat fruit of thee any more for ever. And his disciples heard it. Mk. 11:14
- And they come to Jerusalem, and entering into the temple, he began to cast out those who sold and who bought in the temple, and he overthrew the tables of the moneychangers and the seats of the dove-sellers, Mk. 11:15

- and to love him with all the heart, and with all the intelligence, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbour as one's self, is more than all the burnt-offerings and sacrifices. Mk. 12:33
- And Jesus, seeing that he had answered intelligently, said to him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no one dared question him any more. Mk. 12:34

- But when they shall lead you away to deliver you up, be not careful beforehand as to what ye shall say, nor prepare your discourse: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak; for *ye* are not the speakers, but the Holy Spirit. Mk. 13:11

- for it is written, He shall give charge to his angels concerning thee to keep thee; Lk. 4:10
- And Jesus answering said to him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. Lk. 4:12
- And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit to Galilee; and a rumour went out into the whole surrounding country about him; Lk. 4:14
- And he came to Nazareth, where he was brought up; and he entered, according to his custom, into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up to read. Lk. 4:16
- And the book of the prophet Esaias was given to him; and having unrolled the book he found the place where it was written, Lk. 4:17
- The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach glad tidings to the poor; he has sent me to preach to captives deliverance, and to the blind sight, to send forth the crushed delivered, Lk. 4:18
- to preach the acceptable year of the Lord. Lk. 4:19
- And having rolled up the book, when he had delivered it up to the attendant, he sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed upon him. Lk. 4:20
- And he began to say to them, To-day this scripture is fulfilled in your ears. Lk. 4:21
- And all bore witness to him, and wondered at the words of grace which were coming out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this the son of Joseph? Lk. 4:22
- And he said to them, Ye will surely say to me this parable, Physician, heal thyself; whatsoever we have heard has taken place in Capernaum do here also in thine own country. Lk. 4:23
- And he said, Verily I say to you, that no prophet is acceptable in his own country. Lk. 4:24
- But of a truth I say to you, There were many widows in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up for three years and six months, so that a great famine came upon all the land, Lk. 4:25
- and to none of them was Elias sent but to Sarepta of Sidonia, to a woman that was a widow. Lk. 4:26
- and rising up they cast him forth out of the city, and led him up to the brow of the mountain upon which their city was built, so that they might throw him down the precipice; Lk. 4:29
- and descended to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbaths. Lk. 4:31
- saying, Eh! what have we to do with thee, Jesus, Nazarene? hast thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. Lk. 4:34
- And astonishment came upon all, and they spoke to one another, saying, What word is this? for with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out. Lk. 4:36
- And when the sun went down, all, as many as had persons sick with divers diseases, brought them to him, and having laid his hands on every one of them, he healed them; Lk. 4:40
- and demons also went out from many, crying out and saying, *Thou* art the Son of God. And rebuking them, he suffered them not to speak, because they knew him to be the Christ. Lk. 4:41
- And when it was day he went out, and went into a desert place, and the crowds sought after him, and came up to him, and would have kept him back that he should not go from them. Lk. 4:42
- But he said to them, I must needs announce the glad tidings of the kingdom of God to the other cities also, for for this I have been sent forth. Lk. 4:43
- And it came to pass, as the crowd pressed on him to hear the word of God, that he was standing by the lake of Gennesaret: Lk. 5:1
- And getting into one of the ships, which was Simon's, he asked him to draw out a little from the land; and he sat down and taught the crowds out of the ship. Lk. 5:3
- But when he ceased speaking, he said to Simon, Draw out into the deep water and let down your nets for a haul. Lk. 5:4
- And Simon answering said to him, Master, having laboured through the whole night we have taken nothing, but at thy word I will let down the net. Lk. 5:5
- And they beckoned to their partners who were in the other ship to come and help them, and they came, and filled both the ships, so that they were sinking. Lk. 5:7
- and in like manner also on James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Fear not; henceforth thou shalt be catching men. Lk. 5:10
- And it came to pass as he was in one of the cities, that behold, there was a man full of leprosy, and seeing Jesus, falling upon his face, he besought him saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou art able to cleanse me. Lk. 5:12
- And he enjoined him to tell no one; but go, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing as Moses ordained, for a testimony to them. Lk. 5:14
- But the report concerning him was spread abroad still more, and great crowds came together to hear, and to be healed from their infirmities. Lk. 5:15
- And it came to pass on one of the days, that *he* was teaching, and there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who were come out of every village of Galilee and Judaea and out of Jerusalem; and the Lord's power was there to heal them. Lk. 5:17
- And lo, men bringing upon a couch a man who was paralysed; and they sought to bring him in, and put him before him. Lk. 5:18
- And not finding what way to bring him in, on account of the crowd, going up on the housetop they let him down through the tiles, with his little couch, into the midst before Jesus. Lk. 5:19
- And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason in their minds, saying, Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who is able to forgive sins but God alone? Lk. 5:21
- But Jesus, knowing their reasonings, answering said to them, Why reason ye in your hearts? Lk. 5:22
- which is easier, to say, Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say, Rise up and walk? Lk. 5:23
- But that ye may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, he said to the paralysed man, I say to thee, Arise, and take up thy little couch and go to thine house. Lk. 5:24
- And immediately standing up before them, having taken up that whereon he was laid, he departed to his house, glorifying God. Lk. 5:25
- And after these things he went forth and saw a tax-gatherer, Levi by name, sitting at the receipt of taxes, and said to him, Follow me. Lk. 5:27
- And Jesus answering said to them, They that are in sound health have not need of a physician, but those that are ill. Lk. 5:31
- I am not come to call righteous persons, but sinful ones to repentance. Lk. 5:32
- And they said to him, Why do the disciples of John fast often and make supplications, in like manner those also of the Pharisees, but thine eat and drink? Lk. 5:33
- And he said to them, Can ye make the sons of the bridechamber fast when the bridegroom is with them? Lk. 5:34
- And he spoke also a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment upon an old garment, otherwise he will both rend the new, and the piece which is from the new will not suit with the old. Lk. 5:36
- but new wine is to be put into new skins, and both are preserved. Lk. 5:38
- And it came to pass on the second-first sabbath, that he went through cornfields, and his disciples were plucking the ears and eating them, rubbing them in their hands. Lk. 6:1
- But some of the Pharisees said to them, Why do ye what is not lawful to do on the sabbath? Lk. 6:2
- And Jesus answering said to them, Have ye not read so much as this, what David did when he hungered, he and those who were with him, Lk. 6:3
- how he entered into the house of God and took the shewbread and ate, and gave to those also who were with him, which it is not lawful that any eat, unless the priests alone? Lk. 6:4
- And he said to them, The Son of man is Lord of the sabbath also. Lk. 6:5
- And it came to pass on another sabbath also that he entered into the synagogue and taught; and there was a man there, and his right hand was withered. Lk. 6:6
- And the scribes and the Pharisees were watching if he would heal on the sabbath, that they might find something of which to accuse him. Lk. 6:7
- But *he* knew their thoughts, and said to the man who had the withered hand, Get up, and stand in the midst. And having risen up he stood there. Lk. 6:8
- Jesus therefore said to them, I will ask you if it is lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do evil? to save life, or to destroy it? Lk. 6:9
- And having looked around on them all, he said to him, Stretch out thy hand. And he did so and his hand was restored as the other. Lk. 6:10
- But *they* were filled with madness, and they spoke together among themselves what they should do to Jesus. Lk. 6:11
- And it came to pass in those days that he went out into the mountain to pray, and he spent the night in prayer to God. Lk. 6:12
- Simon, to whom also he gave the name of Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew, Lk. 6:14
- and having descended with them, he stood on a level place, and a crowd of his disciples, and a great multitude of the people from all Judaea and Jerusalem, and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases; Lk. 6:17
- And all the crowd sought to touch him, for power went out from him and healed all. Lk. 6:19
- But woe to you rich, for ye have received your consolation. Lk. 6:24
- Woe to you that are filled, for ye shall hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, for ye shall mourn and weep. Lk. 6:25
- Woe, when all men speak well of you, for after this manner did their fathers to the false prophets. Lk. 6:26
- But to you that hear I say, Love your enemies; do good to those that hate you; Lk. 6:27
- To him that smites thee on the cheek, offer also the other; and from him that would take away thy garment, forbid not thy body-coat also. Lk. 6:29
- To every one that asks of thee, give; and from him that takes away what is thine, ask it not back. Lk. 6:30
- And as ye wish that men should do to you, do *ye* also to them in like manner. Lk. 6:31
- And if ye love those that love you, what thank is it to you? for even sinners love those that love them. Lk. 6:32
- And if ye do good to those that do good to you, what thank is it to you? for even sinners do the same. Lk. 6:33
- And if ye lend to those from whom ye hope to receive, what thank is it to you? for even sinners lend to sinners that they may receive the like. Lk. 6:34
- But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return, and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be sons of the Highest; for *he* is good to the unthankful and wicked. Lk. 6:35
- And judge not, and ye shall not be judged; condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned. Remit, and it shall be remitted to you. Lk. 6:37
- Give, and it shall be given to you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall be given into your bosom: for with the same measure with which ye mete it shall be measured to you again. Lk. 6:38
- And he spoke also a parable to them: Can a blind man lead a blind man? shall not both fall into the ditch? Lk. 6:39
- or how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, allow me, I will cast out the mote that is in thine eye, thyself not seeing the beam that is in thine eye? Hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine eye, and then thou shalt see clear to cast out the mote which is in the eye of thy brother. Lk. 6:42
- Every one that comes to me, and hears my words and does them, I will shew you to whom he is like. Lk. 6:47
- And a certain centurion's bondman who was dear to him was ill and about to die; Lk. 7:2
- and having heard of Jesus, he sent to him elders of the Jews, begging him that he might come and save his bondman. Lk. 7:3
- But they, being come to Jesus, besought him diligently, saying, He is worthy to whom thou shouldest grant this, Lk. 7:4
- And Jesus went with them. But already, when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent to him friends, saying to him, Lord, do not trouble thyself, for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof. Lk. 7:6
- Wherefore neither did I count myself worthy to come to thee. But say by a word and my servant shall be healed. Lk. 7:7
- For *I* also am a man placed under authority, having under myself soldiers, and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my bondman, Do this, and he does it. Lk. 7:8
- And Jesus hearing this wondered at him, and turning to the crowd following him said, I say to you, Not even in Israel have I found so great faith. Lk. 7:9
- And they who had been sent returning to the house found the bondman, who was ill, in good health. Lk. 7:10
- And it came to pass afterwards he went into a city called Nain, and many of his disciples and a great crowd went with him. Lk. 7:11
- And as he drew near to the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was carried out, the only son of his mother, and she a widow, and a very considerable crowd of the city was with her. Lk. 7:12
- And the Lord, seeing her, was moved with compassion for her, and said to her, Weep not; Lk. 7:13
- and coming up he touched the bier, and the bearers stopped. And he said, Youth, I say to thee, Wake up. Lk. 7:14
- And the dead sat up and began to speak; and he gave him to his mother. Lk. 7:15
- and John, having called two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, Art *thou* he that is coming, or are we to wait for another? Lk. 7:19
- But the men having come to him said, John the baptist has sent us to thee, saying, Art *thou* he that is coming, or are we to wait for another? Lk. 7:20
- In that hour he healed many of diseases and plagues and evil spirits, and to many blind he granted sight. Lk. 7:21
- And Jesus answering said to them, Go, bring back word to John of what ye have seen and heard: that blind see, lame walk, lepers are cleansed, deaf hear, dead are raised, poor are evangelized; Lk. 7:22
- And the messengers of John having departed, he began to speak to the crowds concerning John: What went ye out into the wilderness to behold? a reed shaken by the wind? Lk. 7:24
- But what went ye out to see? a man clothed in delicate garments? Behold, those who are in splendid clothing and live luxuriously are in the courts of kings. Lk. 7:25
- But what went ye out to see? a prophet? Yea, I say to you, and what is more excellent than a prophet. Lk. 7:26
- but the Pharisees and the lawyers rendered null as to themselves the counsel of God, not having been baptised by him.) Lk. 7:30
- To whom therefore shall I liken the men of this generation, and to whom are they like? Lk. 7:31
- They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept. Lk. 7:32
- and standing at his feet behind him weeping, began to wash his feet with tears; and she wiped them with the hairs of her head, and kissed his feet, and anointed them with the myrrh. Lk. 7:38
- And Jesus answering said to him, Simon, I have somewhat to say to thee. And he says, Teacher, say it. Lk. 7:40
- but as they had nothing to pay, he forgave both of them their debt: say, which of them therefore will love him most? Lk. 7:42
- And Simon answering said, I suppose he to whom he forgave the most. And he said to him, Thou hast rightly judged. Lk. 7:43
- And turning to the woman he said to Simon, Seest thou this woman? I entered into thy house; thou gavest me not water on my feet, but *she* has washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with her hair. Lk. 7:44
- For which cause I say to thee, Her many sins are forgiven; for she loved much; but he to whom little is forgiven loves little. Lk. 7:47
- And he said to her, Thy sins are forgiven. Lk. 7:48
- And they that were with them at table began to say within themselves, Who is this who forgives also sins? Lk. 7:49
- And he said to the woman, Thy faith has saved thee; go in peace. Lk. 7:50
- And it came to pass afterwards that *he* went through the country city by city, and village by village, preaching and announcing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him, Lk. 8:1
- and Joanna, wife of Chuza, Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to him of their substance. Lk. 8:3
- And a great crowd coming together, and those who were coming to him out of each city, he spoke by parable: Lk. 8:4
- The sower went out to sow his seed; and as he sowed, some fell along the way, and it was trodden under foot, and the birds of the heaven devoured it up; Lk. 8:5
- and other fell into the good ground, and having sprung up bore fruit a hundredfold. As he said these things he cried, He that has ears to hear, let him hear. Lk. 8:8
- And he said, To you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God, but to the rest in parables, in order that seeing they may not see, and hearing they may not understand. Lk. 8:10
- But that that fell where the thorns were, these are they who having heard go away and are choked under cares and riches and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to perfection. Lk. 8:14
- For there is nothing hid which shall not become manifest, nor secret which shall not be known and come to light. Lk. 8:17
- Take heed therefore how ye hear; for whosoever has, to him shall be given, and whosoever has not, even what he seems to have shall be taken from him. Lk. 8:18
- And his mother and his brethren came to him, and could not get to him because of the crowd. Lk. 8:19
- And it was told him saying, Thy mother and thy brethren stand without, wishing to see thee. Lk. 8:20
- But he answering said to them, My mother and my brethren are those who hear the word of God and do it. Lk. 8:21
- And it came to pass on one of the days, that *he* entered into a ship, himself and his disciples; and he said to them, Let us pass over to the other side of the lake; and they set off from shore. Lk. 8:22
- and coming to him they woke him up, saying, Master, master, we perish. But he, rising up, rebuked the wind and the raging of the water; and they ceased, and there was a calm. Lk. 8:24
- And he said to them, Where is your faith? And, being afraid, they were astonished, saying to one another, Who then is this, that he commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him? Lk. 8:25
- But seeing Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus Son of the Most High God? I beseech thee torment me not. Lk. 8:28
- For he had commanded the unclean spirit to go out from the man. For very often it had seized him; and he had been bound, kept with chains and fetters; and breaking the bonds he was driven by the demon into the deserts. Lk. 8:29
- And they besought him that he would not command them to go away into the bottomless pit. Lk. 8:31
- And there was there a herd of many swine feeding on the mountain, and they besought him that he would suffer them to enter into those; and he suffered them. Lk. 8:32
- But they that fed them, seeing what had happened, fled, and told it to the city and to the country. Lk. 8:34
- And they went out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting, clothed and sensible, at the feet of Jesus. And they were afraid. Lk. 8:35
- And all the multitude of the surrounding country of the Gadarenes asked him to depart from them, for they were possessed with great fear; and *he*, entering into the ship, returned. Lk. 8:37
- Return to thine house and relate how great things God has done for thee. And he went away through the whole city, publishing how great things Jesus had done for him. Lk. 8:39
- And it came to pass when Jesus returned, the crowd received him gladly, for they were all expecting him. Lk. 8:40
- And behold, a man came, whose name was Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue, and falling at the feet of Jesus besought him to come to his house, Lk. 8:41
- And he said to her, Be of good courage, daughter; thy faith has healed thee; go in peace. Lk. 8:48
- While he was yet speaking, comes some one from the ruler of the synagogue, saying to him, Thy daughter is dead; do not trouble the teacher. Lk. 8:49
- And when he came to the house he suffered no one to go in but Peter and John and James and the father of the child and the mother. Lk. 8:51
- And her spirit returned, and immediately she rose up; and he commanded something to eat to be given to her. Lk. 8:55
- And her parents were amazed; but he enjoined them to tell no one what had happened. Lk. 8:56
- And having called together the twelve, he gave them power and authority over all demons, and to heal diseases, Lk. 9:1
- and sent them to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal the sick. Lk. 9:2
- And he said to them, Take nothing for the way, neither staff, nor scrip, nor bread, nor money; nor to have two body-coats apiece. Lk. 9:3
- And Herod said, John *I* have beheaded, but who is this of whom I hear such things? and he sought to see him. Lk. 9:9
- And the apostles having returned related to him whatever they had done. And he took them and withdrew apart into a desert place of a city called Bethsaida. Lk. 9:10
- But the crowds knowing it followed him; and he received them and spake to them of the kingdom of God, and cured those that had need of healing. Lk. 9:11
- But the day began to decline, and the twelve came and said to him, Send away the crowd that they may go into the villages around, and into the fields, and lodge and find victuals, for here we are in a desert place. Lk. 9:12
- And he said to them, Give *ye them to eat. And they said, We have not more than five loaves and two fishes, unless *we* should go and buy food for all this people; Lk. 9:13
- for they were about five thousand men. And he said to his disciples, Make them sit down in companies by fifties. Lk. 9:14
- And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven he blessed them, and broke and gave to the disciples to set before the crowd. Lk. 9:16
- And they all ate and were filled; and there was taken up of what had remained over and above to them in fragments twelve hand-baskets. Lk. 9:17
- And it came to pass as he was praying alone, his disciples were with him, and he asked them saying, Who do the crowds say that I am? Lk. 9:18
- And he said to them, But *ye*, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering said, The Christ of God. Lk. 9:20
- But, earnestly charging them, he enjoined them to say this to no man, Lk. 9:21
- And he said to them all, If any one will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me; Lk. 9:23
- for whosoever shall desire to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake, *he* shall save it. Lk. 9:24
- And it came to pass after these words, about eight days, that taking Peter and John and James he went up into a mountain to pray. Lk. 9:28
- who, appearing in glory, spoke of his departure which he was about to accomplish in Jerusalem. Lk. 9:31
- And it came to pass as they departed from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said. Lk. 9:33
- And it came to pass on the following day, when they came down from the mountain, a great crowd met him. Lk. 9:37
- But as he was yet coming, the demon tore him and dragged him all together. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child and gave him back to his father. Lk. 9:42
- And all were astonished at the glorious greatness of God. And as all wondered at all the things which Jesus did, he said to his disciples, Lk. 9:43
- Do *ye* let these words sink into your ears. For the Son of man is about to be delivered into men's hands. Lk. 9:44
- But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them that they should not perceive it. And they feared to ask him concerning this saying. Lk. 9:45
- and said to them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name receives me, and whosoever shall receive me receives him that sent me. For he who is the least among you all, *he* is great. Lk. 9:48
- And Jesus said to him, Forbid him not, for he that is not against you is for you. Lk. 9:50
- And it came to pass when the days of his receiving up were fulfilled, that *he* stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem. Lk. 9:51
- And they did not receive him, because his face was turned as going to Jerusalem. Lk. 9:53
- And they went to another village. Lk. 9:56
- And it came to pass as they went in the way, one said to him, I will follow thee wheresoever thou goest, Lord. Lk. 9:57
- And Jesus said to him, The foxes have holes and the birds of the heaven roosting-places, but the Son of man has not where he may lay his head. Lk. 9:58
- And he said to another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, allow me to go first and bury my father. Lk. 9:59
- But Jesus said to him, Suffer the dead to bury their own dead, but do *thou* go and announce the kingdom of God. Lk. 9:60
- And another also said, I will follow thee, Lord, but first allow me to bid adieu to those at my house. Lk. 9:61
- But Jesus said to him, No one having laid his hand on the plough and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God. Lk. 9:62
- Now after these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place where he himself was about to come. Lk. 10:1
- And he said to them, The harvest indeed is great, but the workmen few; supplicate therefore the Lord of the harvest that he may send out workmen into his harvest. Lk. 10:2
- And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace to this house. Lk. 10:5
- And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it; but if not it shall turn to you again. Lk. 10:6
- And in the same house abide, eating and drinking such things as they have; for the workman is worthy of his hire. Remove not from house to house. Lk. 10:7
- and heal the sick in it, and say to them, The kingdom of God is come nigh to you. Lk. 10:9
- Even the dust of your city, which cleaves to us on the feet, do we shake off against you; but know this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh. Lk. 10:11
- I say to you that it shall be more tolerable for Sodom in that day than for that city. Lk. 10:12
- Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the works of power which have taken place in you had taken place in Tyre and Sidon, they had long ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. Lk. 10:13
- And *thou*, Capernaum, who hast been raised up to heaven, shalt be brought down even to hades. Lk. 10:15
- And the seventy returned with joy, saying, Lord, even the demons are subject to us through thy name. Lk. 10:17
- And he said to them, I beheld Satan as lightning falling out of heaven. Lk. 10:18
- Yet in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subjected to you, but rejoice that your names are written in the heavens. Lk. 10:20
- In the same hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit and said, I praise thee, Father, Lord of the heaven and of the earth, that thou hast hid these things from wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes: yea, Father, for thus has it been well-pleasing in thy sight. Lk. 10:21
- All things have been delivered to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is but the Father, and who the Father is but the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son is pleased to reveal him. Lk. 10:22
- And having turned to the disciples privately he said, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see. Lk. 10:23
- For I say to you that many prophets and kings have desired to see the things which ye behold, and did not see them; and to hear the things which ye hear, and did not hear them. Lk. 10:24
- And he said to him, What is written in the law? how readest thou? Lk. 10:26
- And he said to him, Thou hast answered right: this do and thou shalt live. Lk. 10:28
- But he, desirous of justifying himself, said to Jesus, And who is my neighbour? Lk. 10:29
- And Jesus replying said, A certain man descended from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell into the hands of robbers, who also, having stripped him and inflicted wounds, went away leaving him in a half-dead state. Lk. 10:30
- And a certain priest happened to go down that way, and seeing him, passed on on the opposite side; Lk. 10:31
- But a certain Samaritan journeying came to him, and seeing him, was moved with compassion, Lk. 10:33

- And it came to pass on his arrival back again, having received the kingdom, that he desired these bondmen to whom he gave the money to be called to him, in order that he might know what every one had gained by trading. Lk. 19:15
- And he said to him, Well done, thou good bondman; because thou hast been faithful in that which is least, be thou in authority over ten cities. Lk. 19:17
- And he said also to this one, And *thou*, be over five cities. Lk. 19:19
- He says to him, Out of thy mouth will I judge thee, wicked bondman: thou knewest that *I* am a harsh man, taking up what I have not laid down and reaping what I have not sowed. Lk. 19:22
- And why didst thou not give my money to the bank; and *I* should have received it, at my coming, with interest? Lk. 19:23
- And he said to those that stood by, Take from him the mina and give it to him who has the ten minas. Lk. 19:24
- And they said to him, Lord, he has ten minas. Lk. 19:25
- For I say unto you, that to every one that has shall be given; but from him that has not, that even which he has shall be taken from him. Lk. 19:26
- Moreover those mine enemies, who would not have me to reign over them, bring them here and slay them before me. Lk. 19:27
- And having said these things, he went on before, going up to Jerusalem. Lk. 19:28
- And it came to pass as he drew near to Bethphage and Bethany at the mountain called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, Lk. 19:29
- And if any one ask you, Why do ye loose it? thus shall ye say to him, Because the Lord has need of it. Lk. 19:31
- And they that were sent, having gone their way, found as he had said to them. Lk. 19:32
- And as they were loosing the colt, its masters said to them, Why loose ye the colt? Lk. 19:33
- And they led it to Jesus; and having cast their own garments on the colt, they put Jesus on it. Lk. 19:35
- And as he drew near, already at the descent of the mount of Olives, all the multitude of the disciples began, rejoicing, to praise God with a loud voice for all the works of power which they had seen, Lk. 19:37
- And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to him, Teacher, rebuke thy disciples. Lk. 19:39
- And he answering said to them, I say unto you, If these shall be silent, the stones will cry out. Lk. 19:40
- And entering into the temple, he began to cast out those that sold and bought in it, Lk. 19:45
- saying to them, It is written, My house is a house of prayer, but *ye* have made it a den of robbers. Lk. 19:46
- And he was teaching day by day in the temple: and the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him, Lk. 19:47
- and did not find what they could do, for all the people hung on him to hear. Lk. 19:48
- And it came to pass on one of the days, as he was teaching the people in the temple, and announcing the glad tidings, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came up, Lk. 20:1
- and spoke to him saying, Tell us by what authority thou doest these things, or who is it who has given thee this authority? Lk. 20:2
- And he answering said to them, *I* also will ask you one thing, and tell me: Lk. 20:3
- And Jesus said to them, Neither do *I* tell you by what authority I do these things. Lk. 20:8
- And he began to speak to the people this parable: A man planted a vineyard and let it out to husbandmen, and left the country for a long time. Lk. 20:9
- And in the season he sent to the husbandmen a bondman, that they might give to him of the fruit of the vineyard; but the husbandmen, having beaten him, sent him away empty. Lk. 20:10
- And having cast him forth out of the vineyard, they killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do to them? Lk. 20:15
- He will come and destroy those husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it they said, May it never be! Lk. 20:16
- Every one falling on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder. Lk. 20:18
- And the chief priests and the scribes sought the same hour to lay hands on him, and they feared the people; for they knew that he had spoken this parable of them. Lk. 20:19
- And having watched him, they sent out suborned persons, pretending to be just men, that they might take hold of him in his language, so that they might deliver him up to the power and authority of the governor. Lk. 20:20
- Is it lawful for us to give tribute to Caesar, or not? Lk. 20:22
- But perceiving their deceit he said to them, Why do ye tempt me? Lk. 20:23
- And he said to them, Pay therefore what is Caesar's to Caesar, and what is God's to God. Lk. 20:25
- And they were not able to take hold of him in his expressions before the people, and, wondering at his answer, they were silent. Lk. 20:26
- And some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is any resurrection, coming up to him, demanded of him Lk. 20:27
- saying, Teacher, Moses wrote to us, If any one's brother, who has a wife, die, and he die childless, his brother shall take the wife and raise up seed to his brother. Lk. 20:28
- And Jesus said to them, The sons of this world marry and are given in marriage, Lk. 20:34
- but they who are counted worthy to have part in that world, and the resurrection from among the dead, neither marry nor are given in marriage; Lk. 20:35
- for neither can they die any more, for they are equal to angels, and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection. Lk. 20:36
- For they did not dare any more to ask him anything. Lk. 20:40
- And he said to them, How do they say that the Christ is David's son, Lk. 20:41
- and David himself says in the book of Psalms, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand Lk. 20:42
- And, as all the people were listening, he said to his disciples, Lk. 20:45
- Beware of the scribes, who like to walk about in long robes, and who love salutations in the market-places, and first seats in the synagogues, and first places at suppers; Lk. 20:46
- As to these things which ye are beholding, days are coming in which there shall not be left stone upon stone which shall not be thrown down. Lk. 21:6
- And they asked him saying, Teacher, when then shall these things be; and what is the sign when these things are going to take place? Lk. 21:7
- Then he said to them, Nation shall rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; Lk. 21:10
- But before all these things they shall lay their hands upon you and persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors on account of my name; Lk. 21:12
- but it shall turn out to you for a testimony. Lk. 21:13
- Settle therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand your defence, Lk. 21:14
- for *I* will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your opposers shall not be able to reply to or resist. Lk. 21:15
- But ye will be delivered up even by parents and brethren and relations and friends, and they shall put to death some from among you, Lk. 21:16
- Then let those who are in Judaea flee to the mountains, and those who are in the midst of it depart out, and those who are in the country not enter into it; Lk. 21:21
- But woe to them that are with child and to them who give suck in those days, for there shall be great distress upon the land and wrath upon this people. Lk. 21:23
- men ready to die through fear and expectation of what is coming on the habitable earth, for the powers of the heavens shall be shaken. Lk. 21:26
- But when these things begin to come to pass, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws nigh. Lk. 21:28
- And he spoke a parable to them: Behold the fig-tree and all the trees; Lk. 21:29
- Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall in no wise pass away until all come to pass. Lk. 21:32
- But take heed to yourselves lest possibly your hearts be laden with surfeiting and drinking and cares of life, and that day come upon you suddenly unawares; Lk. 21:34
- Watch therefore, praying at every season, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things which are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. Lk. 21:36
- and all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him. Lk. 21:38
- And he went away and spoke with the chief priests and captains as to how he should deliver him up to them. Lk. 22:4
- And they were rejoiced, and agreed to give him money. Lk. 22:5
- And he came to an agreement to do it, and sought an opportunity to deliver him up to them away from the crowd. Lk. 22:6
- And the day of unleavened bread came, in which the passover was to be killed. Lk. 22:7
- But they said to him, Where wilt thou that we prepare it? Lk. 22:9
- And he said to them, Behold, as ye enter into the city a man will meet you, carrying an earthen pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he goes in; Lk. 22:10
- and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher says to thee, Where is the guest-chamber where I may eat the passover with my disciples? Lk. 22:11
- And having gone they found it as he had said to them; and they prepared the passover. Lk. 22:13
- And he said to them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer. Lk. 22:15
- And having taken a loaf, when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. Lk. 22:19
- And *they* began to question together among themselves who then it could be of them who was about to do this. Lk. 22:23
- And there was also a strife among them which of them should be held to be the greatest. Lk. 22:24
- And he said to them, The kings of the nations rule over them, and they that exercise authority over them are called benefactors. Lk. 22:25
- And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded to have you, to sift you as wheat; Lk. 22:31
- And he said to him, Lord, with thee I am ready to go both to prison and to death. Lk. 22:33
- And he said to them, When I sent you without purse and scrip and sandals, did ye lack anything? And they said, Nothing. Lk. 22:35
- He said therefore to them, But now he that has a purse let him take it, in like manner also a scrip, and he that has none let him sell his garment and buy a sword; Lk. 22:36
- And they said, Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said to them, It is enough. Lk. 22:38
- And going forth he went according to his custom to the mount of Olives, and the disciples also followed him. Lk. 22:39
- And when he was at the place he said to them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. Lk. 22:40
- And an angel appeared to him from heaven strengthening him. Lk. 22:43
- And rising up from his prayer, coming to the disciples, he found them sleeping from grief. Lk. 22:45
- And he said to them, Why sleep ye? rise up and pray that ye enter not into temptation. Lk. 22:46
- As he was yet speaking, behold, a crowd, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went on before them, and drew near to Jesus to kiss him. Lk. 22:47
- And Jesus said to him, Judas, deliverest thou up the Son of man with a kiss? Lk. 22:48
- And they who were around him, seeing what was going to follow, said to him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword? Lk. 22:49
- And Jesus said to the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders, who were come against him, Have ye come out as against a robber with swords and sticks? Lk. 22:52
- And the Lord, turning round, looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him, Before the cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice. Lk. 22:61
- And they said many other injurious things to him. Lk. 22:65
- If *thou* art the Christ, tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not at all believe; Lk. 22:67
- And they all said, *Thou* then art the Son of God? And he said to them, *Ye* say that I am. Lk. 22:70
- And the whole multitude of them, rising up, led him to Pilate. Lk. 23:1
- And they began to accuse him, saying, We have found this man perverting our nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ, a king. Lk. 23:2
- And Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, I find no guilt in this man. Lk. 23:4
- But they insisted, saying, He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judaea, beginning from Galilee even on to here. Lk. 23:5
- and having learned that he was of Herod's jurisdiction, remitted him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem in those days. Lk. 23:7
- And when Herod saw Jesus he greatly rejoiced, for he had been a long while desirous of seeing him, because of hearing many things concerning him, and he hoped to see some sign done by him; Lk. 23:8
- And Herod with his troops having set him at nought and mocked him, having put a splendid robe upon him, sent him back to Pilate. Lk. 23:11
- said to them, Ye have brought to me this man as turning away the people to rebellion, and behold, I, having examined him before you, have found nothing criminal in this man as to the things of which ye accuse him; Lk. 23:14
- nor Herod either, for I remitted you to him, and behold, nothing worthy of death is done by him. Lk. 23:15
- ( Now he was obliged to release one for them at the feast.) Lk. 23:17
- But they cried out in a mass saying, Away with this man and release Barabbas to us; Lk. 23:18
- Pilate therefore, desirous to release Jesus, again addressed them. Lk. 23:20
- And he said the third time to them, What evil then has this man done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will chastise him therefore and release him. Lk. 23:22
- And he released him who, for tumult and murder, had been cast into prison, whom they begged for, and Jesus he delivered up to their will. Lk. 23:25
- And as they led him away, they laid hold on a certain Simon, a Cyrenian, coming from the field, and put the cross upon him to bear it behind Jesus. Lk. 23:26
- And Jesus turning round to them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep over me, but weep over yourselves and over your children; Lk. 23:28
- Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall upon us; and to the hills, Cover us: Lk. 23:30
- Now two others also, malefactors, were led with him to be put to death. Lk. 23:32
- And when they came to the place which is called Skull, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, the other on the left. Lk. 23:33
- Now one of the malefactors who had been hanged spoke insultingly to him, saying, Art not thou the Christ? save thyself and us. Lk. 23:39
- And he said to Jesus, Remember me, Lord, when thou comest in thy kingdom. Lk. 23:42
- And Jesus said to him, Verily I say to thee, To-day shalt thou be with me in paradise. Lk. 23:43
- And all the crowds who had come together to that sight, having seen the things that took place, returned, beating their breasts. Lk. 23:48
- (this man had not assented to their counsel and deed), of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews, who also waited, himself also, for the kingdom of God Lk. 23:51
- -- he having gone to Pilate begged the body of Jesus; Lk. 23:52
- And having returned they prepared aromatic spices and ointments, and remained quiet on the sabbath, according to the commandment. Lk. 23:56
- But on the morrow of the sabbath, very early indeed in the morning, they came to the tomb, bringing the aromatic spices which they had prepared. Lk. 24:1
- And it came to pass as they were in perplexity about it, that behold, two men suddenly stood by them in shining raiment. Lk. 24:4
- And as they were filled with fear and bowed their faces to the ground, they said to them, Why seek ye the living one among the dead? Lk. 24:5
- He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spoke to you, being yet in Galilee, Lk. 24:6
- and, returning from the sepulchre, related all these things to the eleven and to all the rest. Lk. 24:9
- Now it was Mary of Magdala, and Johanna, and Mary the mother of James, and the others with them, who told these things to the apostles. Lk. 24:10
- But Peter, rising up, ran to the sepulchre, and stooping down he sees the linen clothes lying there alone, and went away home, wondering at what had happened. Lk. 24:12
- And behold, two of them were going on the same day to a village distant sixty stadia from Jerusalem, called Emmaus; Lk. 24:13
- And it came to pass as they conversed and reasoned, that Jesus himself drawing nigh, went with them; Lk. 24:15
- but their eyes were holden so as not to know him. Lk. 24:16
- And he said to them, What discourses are these which pass between you as ye walk, and are downcast? Lk. 24:17
- And one of them, named Cleopas, answering said to him, Thou sojournest alone in Jerusalem, and dost not know what has taken place in it in these days? Lk. 24:18
- And he said to them, What things? And they said to him, The things concerning Jesus the Nazaraean, who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people; Lk. 24:19
- and how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him up to the judgment of death and crucified him. Lk. 24:20
- But *we* had hoped that *he* was the one who is about to redeem Israel. But then, besides all these things, it is now, to-day, the third day since these things took place. Lk. 24:21
- And some of those with us went to the sepulchre, and found it so, as the women also had said, but him they saw not. Lk. 24:24
- And *he* said to them, O senseless and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! Lk. 24:25
- Ought not the Christ to have suffered these things and to enter into his glory? Lk. 24:26
- And having begun from Moses and from all the prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. Lk. 24:27
- And they drew near to the village where they were going, and *he* made as though he would go farther. Lk. 24:28
- And they constrained him, saying, Stay with us, for it is toward evening and the day is declining. And he entered in to stay with them. Lk. 24:29
- And it came to pass as he was at table with them, having taken the bread, he blessed, and having broken it, gave it to them. Lk. 24:30
- And they said to one another, Was not our heart burning in us as he spoke to us on the way, and as he opened the scriptures to us? Lk. 24:32
- And rising up the same hour, they returned to Jerusalem. And they found the eleven, and those with them, gathered together, Lk. 24:33
- saying, The Lord is indeed risen and has appeared to Simon. Lk. 24:34
- And they related what had happened on the way, and how he was made known to them in the breaking of bread. Lk. 24:35
- And as they were saying these things, he himself stood in their midst, and says to them, Peace be unto you. Lk. 24:36
- And he said to them, Why are ye troubled? and why are thoughts rising in your hearts? Lk. 24:38
- But while they yet did not believe for joy, and were wondering, he said to them, Have ye anything here to eat? Lk. 24:41
- And he said to them, These are the words which I spoke to you while I was yet with you, that all that is written concerning me in the law of Moses and prophets and psalms must be fulfilled. Lk. 24:44
- Then he opened their understanding to understand the scriptures, Lk. 24:45
- and said to them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved the Christ to suffer, and to rise from among the dead the third day; Lk. 24:46
- and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations beginning at Jerusalem. Lk. 24:47
- And it came to pass as he was blessing them, he was separated from them and was carried up into heaven. Lk. 24:51
- And *they*, having done him homage, returned to Jerusalem with great joy, Lk. 24:52
- He came to his own, and his own received him not; Jn. 1:11
- but as many as received him, to them gave he the right to be children of God, to those that believe on his name; Jn. 1:12
- They said therefore to him, Who art thou? that we may give an answer to those who sent us. What sayest thou of thyself? Jn. 1:22
- And they asked him and said to him, Why baptisest thou then, if thou art not the Christ, nor Elias, nor the prophet? Jn. 1:25
- he who comes after me, the thong of whose sandal I am not worthy to unloose. Jn. 1:27
- On the morrow he sees Jesus coming to him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world. Jn. 1:29
- and I knew him not; but that he might be manifested to Israel, therefore have I come baptising with water. Jn. 1:31
- And I knew him not; but he who sent me to baptise with water, *he* said to me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending and abiding on him, he it is who baptises with the Holy Spirit. Jn. 1:33
- But Jesus having turned, and seeing them following, says to them, What seek ye? And *they* said to him, Rabbi (which, being interpreted, signifies Teacher), where abidest thou? Jn. 1:38
- He says to them, Come and see. They went therefore, and saw where he abode; and they abode with him that day. It was about the tenth hour. Jn. 1:39
- He first finds his own brother Simon, and says to him, We have found the Messias (which being interpreted is Christ). Jn. 1:41
- And he led him to Jesus. Jesus looking at him said, Thou art Simon, the son of Jonas; thou shalt be called Cephas (which interpreted is stone). Jn. 1:42
- On the morrow he would go forth into Galilee, and Jesus finds Philip, and says to him, Follow me. Jn. 1:43
- Philip finds Nathanael, and says to him, We have found him of whom Moses wrote in the law, and the prophets, Jesus, the son of Joseph, who is from Nazareth. Jn. 1:45
- And Nathanael said to him, Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip says to him, Come and see. Jn. 1:46
- Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says of him, Behold one truly an Israelite, in whom there is no guile. Jn. 1:47
- Nathanael says to him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said to him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig-tree, I saw thee. Jn. 1:48
- Nathanael answered and said to him, Rabbi, thou art the Son of God, thou art the King of Israel. Jn. 1:49
- Jesus answered and said to him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, believest thou? Thou shalt see greater things than these. Jn. 1:50
- And he says to him, Verily, verily, I say to you, Henceforth ye shall see the heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of man. Jn. 1:51
- And Jesus also, and his disciples, were invited to the marriage. Jn. 2:2
- And wine being deficient, the mother of Jesus says to him, They have no wine. Jn. 2:3
- Jesus says to her, What have I to do with thee, woman? mine hour has not yet come. Jn. 2:4
- His mother says to the servants, Whatever he may say to you, do. Jn. 2:5
- Now there were standing there six stone water-vessels, according to the purification of the Jews, holding two or three measures each. Jn. 2:6
- Jesus says to them, Fill the water-vessels with water. And they filled them up to the brim. Jn. 2:7
- And he says to them, Draw out now, and carry it to the feast-master. And they carried it. Jn. 2:8
- and says to him, Every man sets on first the good wine, and when men have well drunk, then the inferior; thou hast kept the good wine till now. Jn. 2:10
- After this he descended to Capernaum, he and his mother and his brethren and his disciples; and there they abode not many days. Jn. 2:12
- And the passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Jn. 2:13
- and said to the sellers of doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise. Jn. 2:16
- The Jews therefore answered and said to him, What sign shewest thou to us, that thou doest these things? Jn. 2:18
- Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Jn. 2:19
- But Jesus himself did not trust himself to them, because he knew all men, Jn. 2:24
- he came to him by night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art come a teacher from God, for none can do these signs that thou doest unless God be with him. Jn. 3:2
- Jesus answered and said to him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except any one be born anew he cannot see the kingdom of God. Jn. 3:3
- Nicodemus says to him, How can a man be born being old? can he enter a second time into the womb of his mother and be born? Jn. 3:4
- Do not wonder that I said to thee, It is needful that *ye* should be born anew. Jn. 3:7
- Nicodemus answered and said to him, How can these things be? Jn. 3:9
- Jesus answered and said to him, Thou art the teacher of Israel and knowest not these things! Jn. 3:10
- If I have said the earthly things to you, and ye believe not, how, if I say the heavenly things to you, will ye believe? Jn. 3:12
- For every one that does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light that his works may not be shewn as they are; Jn. 3:20
- but he that practises the truth comes to the light, that his works may be manifested that they have been wrought in God. Jn. 3:21
- And John also was baptising in Aenon, near Salim, because there was a great deal of water there; and they came to him and were baptised: Jn. 3:23
- And they came to John and said to him, Rabbi, he who was with thee beyond the Jordan, to whom thou barest witness, behold, he baptises, and all come to him. Jn. 3:26
- He that has received his testimony has set to his seal that God is true; Jn. 3:33
- The Father loves the Son, and has given all things to be in his hand. Jn. 3:35
- He that believes on the Son has life eternal, and he that is not subject to the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides upon him. Jn. 3:36
- He comes therefore to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near to the land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Jn. 4:5
- A woman comes out of Samaria to draw water. Jesus says to her, Give me to drink Jn. 4:7
- The Samaritan woman therefore says to him, How dost thou, being a Jew, ask to drink of me who am a Samaritan woman? for Jews have no intercourse with Samaritans. Jn. 4:9
- Jesus answered and said to her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that says to thee, Give me to drink, thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. Jn. 4:10
- The woman says to him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: whence then hast thou the living water? Jn. 4:11
- Jesus answered and said to her, Every one who drinks of this water shall thirst again; Jn. 4:13
- The woman says to him, Sir, give me this water, that I may not thirst nor come here to draw. Jn. 4:15
- Jesus says to her, Go, call thy husband, and come here. Jn. 4:16
- The woman answered and said, I have not a husband. Jesus says to her, Thou hast well said, I have not a husband; Jn. 4:17
- The woman says to him, Sir, I see that thou art a prophet. Jn. 4:19
- Jesus says to her, Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when ye shall neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem worship the Father. Jn. 4:21
- The woman says to him, I know that Messias is coming, who is called Christ; when *he* comes he will tell us all things. Jn. 4:25
- Jesus says to her, I who speak to thee am he. Jn. 4:26
- The woman then left her waterpot and went away into the city, and says to the men, Jn. 4:28
- They went out of the city and came to him. Jn. 4:30
- But he said to them, I have food to eat which ye do not know. Jn. 4:32
- The disciples therefore said to one another, Has any one brought him anything to eat? Jn. 4:33
- Jesus says to them, My food is that I should do the will of him that has sent me, and that I should finish his work. Jn. 4:34
- Do not ye say, that there are yet four months and the harvest comes? Behold, I say to you, Lift up your eyes and behold the fields, for they are already white to harvest. Jn. 4:35
- I have sent you to reap that on which ye have not laboured; others have laboured, and ye have entered into their labours. Jn. 4:38
- When therefore the Samaritans came to him they asked him to abide with them, and he abode there two days. Jn. 4:40
- and they said to the woman, It is no longer on account of thy saying that we believe, for we have heard him ourselves, and we know that this is indeed the Saviour of the world. Jn. 4:42
- When therefore he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all that he had done in Jerusalem during the feast, for they also went to the feast. Jn. 4:45
- He came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain courtier in Capernaum whose son was sick. Jn. 4:46
- He, having heard that Jesus had come out of Judaea into Galilee, went to him and asked him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was about to die. Jn. 4:47
- Jesus therefore said to him, Unless ye see signs and wonders ye will not believe. Jn. 4:48
- The courtier says to him, Sir, come down ere my child die. Jn. 4:49
- Jesus says to him, Go, thy son lives. And the man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went his way. Jn. 4:50
- He inquired therefore from them the hour at which he got better. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him. Jn. 4:52
- The father therefore knew that it was in that hour in which Jesus said to him, Thy son lives; and he believed, himself and his whole house. Jn. 4:53
- After these things was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Jn. 5:1
- Jesus seeing this man lying there, and knowing that he was in that state now a great length of time, says to him, Wouldest thou become well? Jn. 5:6
- The infirm man answered him, Sir, I have not a man, in order, when the water has been troubled, to cast me into the pool; but while I am coming another descends before me. Jn. 5:7
- Jesus says to him, Arise, take up thy couch and walk. Jn. 5:8
- The Jews therefore said to the healed man, It is sabbath, it is not permitted thee to take up thy couch. Jn. 5:10
- He answered them, He that made me well, *he* said to me, Take up thy couch and walk. Jn. 5:11
- They asked him therefore, Who is the man who said to thee, Take up thy couch and walk? Jn. 5:12
- After these things Jesus finds him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art become well: sin no more, that something worse do not happen to thee. Jn. 5:14
- And for this the Jews persecuted Jesus and sought to kill him, because he had done these things on sabbath. Jn. 5:16
- For this therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he had not only violated the sabbath, but also said that God was his own Father, making himself equal with God. Jn. 5:18
- Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, The Son can do nothing of himself save whatever he sees the Father doing: for whatever things *he* does, these things also the Son does in like manner. Jn. 5:19
- for neither does the Father judge any one, but has given all judgment to the Son; Jn. 5:22
- For even as the Father has life in himself, so he has given to the Son also to have life in himself, Jn. 5:26
- and has given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is Son of man. Jn. 5:27
- and shall go forth; those that have practised good, to resurrection of life, and those that have done evil, to resurrection of judgment. Jn. 5:29
- Ye have sent unto John, and he has borne witness to the truth. Jn. 5:33
- *He* was the burning and shining lamp, and ye were willing for a season to rejoice in his light. Jn. 5:35
- and ye will not come to me that ye might have life. Jn. 5:40
- Think not that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one who accuses you, Moses, on whom ye trust; Jn. 5:45
- Jesus then, lifting up his eyes and seeing that a great crowd is coming to him, says to Philip, Whence shall we buy loaves that these may eat? Jn. 6:5
- But this he said trying him, for he knew what he was going to do. Jn. 6:6
- One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to him, Jn. 6:8
- And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks, distributed them to those that were set down; and in like manner of the small fishes as much as they would. Jn. 6:11
- And when they had been filled, he says to his disciples, Gather together the fragments which are over and above, that nothing may be lost. Jn. 6:12
- They gathered them therefore together, and filled twelve hand-baskets full of fragments of the five barley loaves, which were over and above to those that had eaten. Jn. 6:13
- Jesus therefore knowing that they were going to come and seize him, that they might make him king, departed again to the mountain himself alone. Jn. 6:15
- But when evening was come, his disciples went down to the sea, Jn. 6:16
- and having gone on board ship, they went over the sea to Capernaum. And it had already become dark, and Jesus had not come to them, Jn. 6:17
- But he says to them, It is I: be not afraid. Jn. 6:20
- They were willing therefore to receive him into the ship; and immediately the ship was at the land to which they went. Jn. 6:21
- (but other little ships out of Tiberias came near to the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks;) Jn. 6:23
- when therefore the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, *they* got into the ships, and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. Jn. 6:24
- And having found him the other side of the sea, they said to him, Rabbi, when art thou arrived here? Jn. 6:25
- Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, Ye seek me not because ye have seen signs, but because ye have eaten of the loaves and been filled. Jn. 6:26
- Work not for the food which perishes, but for the food which abides unto life eternal, which the Son of man shall give to you; for him has the Father sealed, even God. Jn. 6:27
- They said therefore to him, What should we do that we may work the works of God? Jn. 6:28
- Jesus answered and said to them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom *he* has sent. Jn. 6:29
- They said therefore to him, What sign then doest thou that we may see and believe thee? what dost thou work? Jn. 6:30
- Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written, He gave them bread out of heaven to eat. Jn. 6:31
- Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, It is not Moses that has given you the bread out of heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread out of heaven. Jn. 6:32
- For the bread of God is he who comes down out of heaven and gives life to the world. Jn. 6:33
- They said therefore to him, Lord, ever give to us this bread. Jn. 6:34
- And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger, and he that believes on me shall never thirst at any time. Jn. 6:35
- But I have said to you, that ye have also seen me and do not believe. Jn. 6:36
- All that the Father gives me shall come to me, and him that comes to me I will not at all cast out. Jn. 6:37
- Jesus therefore answered and said to them, Murmur not among yourselves. Jn. 6:43
- No one can come to me except the Father who has sent me draw him, and I will raise him up in the last day. Jn. 6:44
- It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every one that has heard from the Father himself, and has learned of him, comes to me; Jn. 6:45
- Verily, verily, I say to you, He that believes on me has life eternal. Jn. 6:47
- The Jews therefore contended among themselves, saying, How can he give us this flesh to eat? Jn. 6:52
- Jesus therefore said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Unless ye shall have eaten the flesh of the Son of man, and drunk his blood, ye have no life in yourselves. Jn. 6:53
- But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmur concerning this, said to them, Does this offend you? Jn. 6:61
- And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no one can come to me unless it be given to him from the Father. Jn. 6:65
- Jesus therefore said to the twelve, Will ye also go away? Jn. 6:67
- Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast words of life eternal; Jn. 6:68
- And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him. Jn. 7:1
- His brethren therefore said to him, Remove hence and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou doest; Jn. 7:3
- for no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be known in public. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world: Jn. 7:4
- Jesus therefore says to them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready. Jn. 7:6
- Ye, go ye up to this feast. I go not up to this feast, for *my* time is not yet fulfilled. Jn. 7:8
- Having said these things to them he abode in Galilee. Jn. 7:9
- But when his brethren had gone up, then he himself also went up to the feast, not openly, but as in secret. Jn. 7:10
- If any one desire to practise his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is of God, or that I speak from myself. Jn. 7:17
- Has not Moses given you the law, and no one of you practises the law? Why do ye seek to kill me? Jn. 7:19
- The crowd answered and said, Thou hast a demon: who seeks to kill thee? Jn. 7:20
- Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one work, and ye all wonder. Jn. 7:21
- Judge not according to sight, but judge righteous judgment. Jn. 7:24
- Some therefore of those of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill? Jn. 7:25
- and behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers then indeed recognised that this is the Christ? Jn. 7:26
- But as to this man we know whence he is. Now as to the Christ, when he comes, no one knows whence he is. Jn. 7:27
- They sought therefore to take him; and no one laid his hand upon him, because his hour had not yet come. Jn. 7:30
- Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while I am with you, and I go to him that has sent me. Jn. 7:33
- The Jews therefore said to one another, Where is he about to go that we shall not find him? Is he about to go to the dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks? Jn. 7:35
- In the last, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried saying, If any one thirst, let him come to me and drink. Jn. 7:37
- But this he said concerning the Spirit, which they that believed on him were about to receive; for the Spirit was not yet, because Jesus had not yet been glorified. Jn. 7:39
- But some of them desired to take him, but no one laid hands upon him. Jn. 7:44
- The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, Why have ye not brought him? Jn. 7:45
- Nicodemus says to them (being one of themselves), Jn. 7:50
- They answered and said to him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search and look, that no prophet arises out of Galilee. Jn. 7:52
- And every one went to his home. Jn. 7:53
- But Jesus went to the mount of Olives. Jn. 8:1
- And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him; and he sat down and taught them. Jn. 8:2
- And the scribes and the Pharisees bring to him a woman taken in adultery, and having set her in the midst, Jn. 8:3
- they say to him, Teacher, this woman has been taken in the very act, committing adultery. Jn. 8:4
- Now in the law Moses has commanded us to stone such; thou therefore, what sayest thou? Jn. 8:5
- But this they said proving him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus, having stooped down, wrote with his finger on the ground. Jn. 8:6
- But when they continued asking him, he lifted himself up and said to them, Let him that is without sin among you first cast the stone at her. Jn. 8:7
- And Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said to her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee? Jn. 8:10
- And she said, No one, sir. And Jesus said to her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more. Jn. 8:11
- Again therefore Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he that follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. Jn. 8:12
- The Pharisees therefore said to him, Thou bearest witness concerning thyself; thy witness is not true. Jn. 8:13
- Jesus answered and said to them, Even if I bear witness concerning myself, my witness is true, because I know whence I came and whither I go: but ye know not whence I come and whither I go. Jn. 8:14
- Ye judge according to the flesh, I judge no one. Jn. 8:15
- They said to him therefore, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye know neither me nor my Father. If ye had known me, ye would have known also my Father. Jn. 8:19
- He said therefore again to them, I go away, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sin; where I go ye cannot come. Jn. 8:21
- And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above. Ye are of this world; I am not of this world. Jn. 8:23
- I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins; for unless ye shall believe that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. Jn. 8:24
- They said therefore to him, Who art thou? And Jesus said to them, Altogether that which I also say to you. Jn. 8:25
- I have many things to say and to judge concerning you, but he that has sent me is true, and I, what I have heard from him, these things I say to the world. Jn. 8:26
- They knew not that he spoke to them of the Father. Jn. 8:27
- Jesus therefore said to them, When ye shall have lifted up the Son of man, then ye shall know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father has taught me I speak these things. Jn. 8:28
- And he that has sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, because I do always the things that are pleasing to him. Jn. 8:29
- Jesus therefore said to the Jews who believed him, If ye abide in my word, ye are truly my disciples; Jn. 8:31
- They answered him, We are Abraham's seed, and have never been under bondage to any one; how sayest thou, Ye shall become free? Jn. 8:33
- Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Every one that practises sin is the bondman of sin. Jn. 8:34
- I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word has no entrance in you. Jn. 8:37
- They answered and said to him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says to them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham; Jn. 8:39
- but now ye seek to kill me, a man who has spoken the truth to you, which I have heard from God: this did not Abraham. Jn. 8:40
- Ye do the works of your father. They said therefore to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one father, God. Jn. 8:41
- Jesus said to them, If God were your father ye would have loved me, for I came forth from God and am come from him; for neither am I come of myself, but *he* has sent me. Jn. 8:42
- Ye are of the devil, as your father, and ye desire to do the lusts of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks falsehood, he speaks of what is his own; for he is a liar and its father: Jn. 8:44
- The Jews answered and said to him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan and hast a demon? Jn. 8:48
- The Jews therefore said to him, Now we know that thou hast a demon. Abraham has died, and the prophets, and thou sayest, If any one keep my word, he shall never taste death. Jn. 8:52
- The Jews therefore said to him, Thou hast not yet fifty years, and hast thou seen Abraham? Jn. 8:57
- Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Jn. 8:58
- And he said to him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, which is interpreted, Sent. He went therefore and washed, and came seeing. Jn. 9:7
- The neighbours therefore, and those who used to see him before, that he was a beggar, said, Is not this he that was sitting and begging? Jn. 9:8
- They said therefore to him, How have thine eyes been opened? Jn. 9:10
- He answered and said, A man called Jesus made mud and anointed mine eyes, and said to me, Go to Siloam and wash: and having gone and washed, I saw. Jn. 9:11
- They said therefore to him, Where is he? He says, I do not know. Jn. 9:12
- They bring him who was before blind to the Pharisees. Jn. 9:13
- The Pharisees therefore also again asked him how he received his sight. And he said to them, He put mud upon mine eyes, and I washed, and I see. Jn. 9:15
- They say therefore again to the blind man, What dost thou say of him, that he has opened thine eyes? And he said, He is a prophet. Jn. 9:17
- His parents said these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if any one confessed him to be the Christ, he should be excommunicated from the synagogue. Jn. 9:22
- They called therefore a second time the man who had been blind, and said to him, Give glory to God: we know that this man is sinful. Jn. 9:24
- And they said to him again, What did he do to thee? how opened he thine eyes? Jn. 9:26
- He answered them, I told you already and ye did not hear: why do ye desire to hear again? do ye also wish to become his disciples? Jn. 9:27
- We know that God spoke to Moses; but as to this man, we know not whence he is. Jn. 9:29
- The man answered and said to them, Now in this is a wonderful thing, that *ye* do not know whence he is, and he has opened mine eyes. Jn. 9:30
- If this man were not of God he would be able to do nothing. Jn. 9:33
- They answered and said to him, Thou hast been wholly born in sins, and thou teachest us? And they cast him out. Jn. 9:34
- Jesus heard that they had cast him out, and having found him, he said to him, Thou, dost thou believe on the Son of God? Jn. 9:35
- And Jesus said to him, Thou hast both seen him, and he that speaks with thee is he. Jn. 9:37
- And some of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and they said to him, Are we blind also? Jn. 9:40
- Jesus said to them, If ye were blind ye would not have sin; but now ye say, We see, your sin remains. Jn. 9:41
- Verily, verily, I say to you, He that enters not in by the door to the fold of the sheep, but mounts up elsewhere, *he* is a thief and a robber; Jn. 10:1
- To him the porter opens; and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. Jn. 10:3
- This allegory spoke Jesus to them, but they did not know what it was of which he spoke to them. Jn. 10:6
- Jesus therefore said again to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. Jn. 10:7
- No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have authority to lay it down and I have authority to take it again. I have received this commandment of my Father. Jn. 10:18
- The Jews therefore surrounded him, and said to him, Until when dost thou hold our soul in suspense? If thou art the Christ, say so to us openly. Jn. 10:24
- My Father who has given them to me is greater than all, and no one can seize out of the hand of my Father. Jn. 10:29
- If he called *them* gods to whom the word of God came (and the scripture cannot be broken), Jn. 10:35
- They sought therefore again to take him; and he went away from out of their hand Jn. 10:39
- and departed again beyond the Jordan to the place where John was baptising at the first: and he abode there. Jn. 10:40
- And many came to him, and said, John did no sign; but all things which John said of this man were true. Jn. 10:41
- The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick. Jn. 11:3
- Then after this he says to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again. Jn. 11:7
- The disciples say to him, Rabbi, even but now the Jews sought to stone thee, and goest thou thither again? Jn. 11:8
- These things said he; and after this he says to them, Lazarus, our friend, is fallen asleep, but I go that I may awake him out of sleep. Jn. 11:11
- The disciples therefore said to him, Lord, if he be fallen asleep, he will get well. Jn. 11:12
- Jesus therefore then said to them plainly, Lazarus has died. Jn. 11:14
- And I rejoice on your account that I was not there, in order that ye may believe. But let us go to him. Jn. 11:15
- Thomas therefore, called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, Let *us* also go, that we may die with him. Jn. 11:16
- Jesus therefore on arriving found him to have been four days already in the tomb. Jn. 11:17
- and many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, that they might console them concerning their brother. Jn. 11:19
- Martha then, when she heard Jesus is coming, went to meet him; but Mary sat in the house. Jn. 11:20
- Martha therefore said to Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died; Jn. 11:21
- Jesus says to her, Thy brother shall rise again. Jn. 11:23
- Martha says to him, I know that he will rise again in the resurrection in the last day. Jn. 11:24
- Jesus said to her, I am the resurrection and the life: he that believes on me, though he have died, shall live; Jn. 11:25
- She says to him, Yea, Lord; I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, who should come into the world. Jn. 11:27
- She, when she heard that, rises up quickly and comes to him. Jn. 11:29
- Now Jesus had not yet come into the village, but was in the place where Martha came to meet him. Jn. 11:30
- The Jews therefore who were with her in the house and consoling her, seeing Mary that she rose up quickly and went out, followed her, saying, She goes to the tomb, that she may weep there. Jn. 11:31
- Mary therefore, when she came where Jesus was, seeing him, fell at his feet, saying to him, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died. Jn. 11:32
- and said, Where have ye put him? They say to him, Lord, come and see. Jn. 11:34
- Jesus therefore, again deeply moved in himself, comes to the tomb. Now it was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. Jn. 11:38
- Jesus says, Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of the dead, says to him, Lord, he stinks already, for he is four days there. Jn. 11:39
- Jesus says to her, Did I not say to thee, that if thou shouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God? Jn. 11:40
- And the dead came forth, bound feet and hands with graveclothes, and his face was bound round with a handkerchief. Jesus says to them, Loose him and let him go. Jn. 11:44
- Many therefore of the Jews who came to Mary and saw what he had done, believed on him; Jn. 11:45
- but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. Jn. 11:46
- But a certain one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, Ye know nothing Jn. 11:49
- But this he did not say of himself; but, being high priest that year, prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation; Jn. 11:51
- Jesus therefore walked no longer openly among the Jews, but went away thence into the country near the desert, to a city called Ephraim, and there he sojourned with the disciples. Jn. 11:54
- But the passover of the Jews was near, and many went up to Jerusalem out of the country before the passover, that they might purify themselves. Jn. 11:55
- They sought therefore Jesus, and said among themselves, standing in the temple, What do ye think? that he will not come to the feast? Jn. 11:56
- Jesus therefore, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where was the dead man Lazarus, whom Jesus raised from among the dead. Jn. 12:1
- One of his disciples therefore, Judas son of Simon, Iscariote, who was about to deliver him up, says, Jn. 12:4
- Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor? Jn. 12:5
- Jesus therefore said, Suffer her to have kept this for the day of my preparation for burial; Jn. 12:7
- On the morrow a great crowd who came to the feast, having heard that Jesus is coming into Jerusalem, Jn. 12:12
- took branches of palms and went out to meet him, and cried, Hosanna, blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord, the King of Israel. Jn. 12:13
- Now his disciples knew not these things at the first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things to him. Jn. 12:16
- The Pharisees therefore said to one another, Ye see that ye profit nothing: behold, the world is gone after him. Jn. 12:19
- these therefore came to Philip, who was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and they asked him saying, Sir, we desire to see Jesus. Jn. 12:21
- He that loves his life shall lose it, and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal. Jn. 12:25
- Now is my soul troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But on account of this have I come to this hour. Jn. 12:27
- The crowd therefore, which stood there and heard it, said that it had thundered. Others said, An angel has spoken to him. Jn. 12:29
- and I, if I be lifted up out of the earth, will draw all to me. Jn. 12:32
- But this he said signifying by what death he was about to die. Jn. 12:33
- Jesus therefore said to them, Yet a little while is the light amongst you. Walk while ye have the light, that darkness may not overtake you. And he who walks in the darkness does not know where he goes. Jn. 12:35
- that the word of the prophet Esaias which he said might be fulfilled, Lord, who has believed our report? and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? Jn. 12:38
- and I know that his commandment is life eternal. What therefore I speak, as the Father has said to me, so I speak. Jn. 12:50
- Now before the feast of the passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come that he should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, loved them to the end. Jn. 13:1
- Jesus, knowing that the Father had given him all things into his hands, and that he came out from God and was going to God, Jn. 13:3
- then he pours water into the washhand basin, and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe them with the linen towel with which he was girded. Jn. 13:5
- He comes therefore to Simon Peter; and *he* says to him, Lord, dost thou wash *my* feet? Jn. 13:6
- Jesus answered and said to him, What I do thou dost not know now, but thou shalt know hereafter. Jn. 13:7
- Peter says to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, Unless I wash thee, thou hast not part with me. Jn. 13:8
- Simon Peter says to him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. Jn. 13:9
- Jesus says to him, He that is washed all over needs not to wash save his feet, but is wholly clean; and ye are clean, but not all. Jn. 13:10
- When therefore he had washed their feet, and taken his garments, having sat down again, he said to them, Do ye know what I have done to you? Jn. 13:12
- If I therefore, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet; Jn. 13:14
- for I have given you an example that, as I have done to you, ye should do also. Jn. 13:15

- But he, leaning on the breast of Jesus, says to him, Lord, who is it? Jn. 13:25
- Jesus answers, He it is to whom I, after I have dipped the morsel, give it. And having dipped the morsel, he gives it to Judas son of Simon, Iscariote. Jn. 13:26
- And, after the morsel, then entered Satan into him. Jesus therefore says to him, What thou doest, do quickly. Jn. 13:27
- But none of those at table knew why he said this to him; Jn. 13:28
- for some supposed, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus was saying to him, Buy the things of which we have need for the feast; or that he should give something to the poor. Jn. 13:29

- and if I go and shall prepare you a place, I am coming again and shall receive you to myself, that where I am ye also may be. Jn. 14:3
- Thomas says to him, Lord, we know not where thou goest, and how can we know the way? Jn. 14:5
- Jesus says to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father unless by me. Jn. 14:6
- Philip says to him, Lord, shew us the Father and it suffices us. Jn. 14:8
- Jesus says to him, Am I so long a time with you, and thou hast not known me, Philip? He that has seen me has seen the Father; and how sayest thou, Shew us the Father? Jn. 14:9
- Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words which I speak to you I do not speak from myself; but the Father who abides in me, he does the works. Jn. 14:10

- but the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, *he* shall teach you all things, and will bring to your remembrance all the things which I have said to you. Jn. 14:26
- I leave peace with you; I give *my* peace to you: not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it fear. Jn. 14:27
- Ye have heard that I have said unto you, I go away and I am coming to you. If ye loved me ye would rejoice that I go to the Father, for my Father is greater than I. Jn. 14:28
- And now I have told you before it comes to pass, that when it shall have come to pass ye may believe. Jn. 14:29
- As to every branch in me not bearing fruit, he takes it away; and as to every one bearing fruit, he purges it that it may bring forth more fruit. Jn. 15:2
- Ye are already clean by reason of the word which I have spoken to you. Jn. 15:3

- They shall put you out of the synagogues; but the hour is coming that every one who kills you will think to render service to God; Jn. 16:2
- But I have spoken these things to you, that when their hour shall have come, ye may remember them, that I have said them unto you. But I did not say these things unto you from the beginning, because I was with you. Jn. 16:4
- But now I go to him that has sent me, and none of you demands of me, Where goest thou? Jn. 16:5
- But because I have spoken these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. Jn. 16:6
- But I say the truth to you, It is profitable for you that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come to you; but if I go I will send him to you. Jn. 16:7
- And having come, he will bring demonstration to the world, of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Jn. 16:8
- of righteousness, because I go away to my Father, and ye behold me no longer; Jn. 16:10
- I have yet many things to say to you, but ye cannot bear them now. Jn. 16:12

- Jesus knew therefore that they desired to demand of him, and said to them, Do ye inquire of this among yourselves that I said, A little while and ye do not behold me; and again a little while and ye shall see me? Jn. 16:19
- Verily, verily, I say to you, that ye shall weep and lament, ye, but the world shall rejoice; and ye will be grieved, but your grief shall be turned to joy. Jn. 16:20
- A woman, when she gives birth to a child, has grief because her hour has come; but when the child is born, she no longer remembers the trouble, on account of the joy that a man has been born into the world. Jn. 16:21
- And in that day ye shall demand nothing of me: verily, verily, I say to you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give you. Jn. 16:23
- These things I have spoken to you in allegories; the hour is coming that I will no longer speak to you in allegories, but will declare to you openly concerning the Father. Jn. 16:25

- I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. They were thine, and thou gavest them me, and they have kept thy word. Jn. 17:6
- And I am no longer in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep them in thy name which thou hast given me, that they may be one as we. Jn. 17:11

- Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given me, shall I not drink it? Jn. 18:11

- Now Simon Peter followed Jesus, and the other disciple. But that disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest; Jn. 18:15

- The maid therefore, who was porteress, says to Peter, Art thou also of the disciples of this man? He says, I am not. Jn. 18:17
- Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world; I taught always in the synagogue and in the temple, where all the Jews come together, and in secret I have spoken nothing. Jn. 18:20

- Pilate therefore went out to them and said, What accusation do ye bring against this man? Jn. 18:29
- They answered and said to him, If this man were not an evildoer, we should not have delivered him up to thee. Jn. 18:30

- Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thy nation and the chief priests have delivered thee up to me: what hast thou done? Jn. 18:35
- Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my servants had fought that I might not be delivered up to the Jews; but now my kingdom is not from hence. Jn. 18:36
- Pilate therefore said to him, Thou art then a king? Jesus answered, Thou sayest it, that I am a king. I have been born for this, and for this I have come into the world, that I might bear witness to the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice. Jn. 18:37

- and went into the praetorium again and says to Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. Jn. 19:9
- Pilate therefore says to him, Speakest thou not to *me*? Dost thou not know that I have authority to release thee and have authority to crucify thee? Jn. 19:10

- From this time Pilate sought to release him; but the Jews cried out saying, If thou releasest this man, thou art not a friend to Caesar. Every one making himself a king speaks against Caesar. Jn. 19:12
- (now it was the preparation of the passover; it was about the sixth hour;) and he says to the Jews, Behold your king! Jn. 19:14
- But they cried out, Take him away, take him away, crucify him. Pilate says to them, Shall I crucify your king? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar. Jn. 19:15

- They said therefore to one another, Let us not rend it, but let us cast lots for it, whose it shall be; that the scripture might be fulfilled which says, They parted my garments among themselves, and on my vesture they cast lots. The soldiers therefore did these things. Jn. 19:24
- Jesus therefore, seeing his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, says to his mother, Woman, behold thy son. Jn. 19:26
- Then he says unto the disciple, Behold thy mother. And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home. Jn. 19:27
- There was a vessel therefore there full of vinegar, and having filled a sponge with vinegar, and putting hyssop round it, they put it up to his mouth. Jn. 19:29

- The disciples therefore went away again to their own home. Jn. 20:10
- And they say to her, Woman, why dost thou weep? She says to them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him. Jn. 20:13
- Jesus says to her, Woman, why dost thou weep? Whom seekest thou? She, supposing that it was the gardener, says to him, Sir, if thou hast borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away. Jn. 20:15
- Jesus says to her, Mary. She, turning round, says to him in Hebrew, Rabboni, which means Teacher. Jn. 20:16

- And having said this, he breathed into them, and says to them, Receive the Holy Spirit: Jn. 20:22
- whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted to them; whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained. Jn. 20:23
- The other disciples therefore said to him, We have seen the Lord. But he said to them, Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and put my finger into the mark of the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe. Jn. 20:25
- And eight days after, his disciples were again within, and Thomas with them. Jesus comes, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst and said, Peace be to you. Jn. 20:26
- Then he says to Thomas, Bring thy finger here and see my hands; and bring thy hand and put it into my side; and be not unbelieving, but believing. Jn. 20:27
- Thomas answered and said to him, My Lord and my God. Jn. 20:28
- Jesus says to him, Because thou hast seen me thou hast believed: blessed they who have not seen and have believed. Jn. 20:29
- After these things Jesus manifested himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias. And he manifested himself thus. Jn. 21:1
- Simon Peter says to them, I go to fish. They say to him, We also come with thee. They went forth, and went on board, and that night took nothing. Jn. 21:3
- Jesus therefore says to them, Children, have ye anything to eat? They answered him, No. Jn. 21:5

- That disciple therefore whom Jesus loved says to Peter, It is the Lord. Simon Peter therefore, having heard that it was the Lord, girded his overcoat on him (for he was naked), and cast himself into the sea; Jn. 21:7
- Jesus says to them, Bring of the fishes which ye have now taken. Jn. 21:10

- Jesus says to them, Come and dine. But none of the disciples dared inquire of him, Who art thou? knowing that it was the Lord. Jn. 21:12
- Jesus comes and takes the bread and gives it to them, and the fish in like manner. Jn. 21:13
- This is already the third time that Jesus had been manifested to the disciples, being risen from among the dead. Jn. 21:14
- When therefore they had dined, Jesus says to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He says to him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. He says to him, Feed my lambs. Jn. 21:15
- He says to him again a second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He says to him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. He says to him, Shepherd my sheep. Jn. 21:16
- He says to him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, art thou attached to me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Art thou attached to me? and said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I am attached to thee. Jesus says to him, Feed my sheep. Jn. 21:17
- Verily, verily, I say to thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst where thou desiredst; but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and bring thee where thou dost not desire. Jn. 21:18
- But he said this signifying by what death he should glorify God. And having said this, he says to him, Follow me. Jn. 21:19
- Peter, seeing him, says to Jesus, Lord, and what of this man? Jn. 21:21
- Jesus says to him, If I will that he abide until I come, what is that to thee? Follow thou me. Jn. 21:22

- And the congregation of the synagogue having broken up, many of the Jews and of the worshipping proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God. Acts 13:43
- And on the coming sabbath almost all the city was gathered together to hear the word of God. Acts 13:44
- And Paul and Barnabas spoke boldly and said, It was necessary that the word of God should be first spoken to you; but, since ye thrust it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, lo, we turn to the nations; Acts 13:46
- for thus has the Lord enjoined us: I have set thee for a light of the nations, that thou shouldest be for salvation to the end of the earth. Acts 13:47
- And those of the nations, hearing it, rejoiced, and glorified the word of the Lord, and believed, as many as were ordained to eternal life. Acts 13:48
- But they, having shaken off the dust of their feet against them, came to Iconium. Acts 13:51
- And it came to pass in Iconium that they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spake that a great multitude of both Jews and Greeks believed. Acts 14:1
- They stayed therefore a good while, speaking boldly, confiding in the Lord, who gave witness to the word of his grace, giving signs and wonders to be done by their hands. Acts 14:3
- And when an assault was making, both of those of the nations and the Jews with their rulers, to use them ill and stone them, Acts 14:5
- they, being aware of it, fled to the cities of Lycaonia, Lystra and Derbe, and the surrounding country, Acts 14:6
- This man heard Paul speaking, who, fixing his eyes on him, and seeing that he had faith to be healed, Acts 14:9
- But the crowds, who saw what Paul had done, lifted up their voices in Lycaonian, saying, The gods, having made themselves like men, are come down to us. Acts 14:11
- And the priest of Jupiter who was before the city, having brought bulls and garlands to the gates, would have done sacrifice along with the crowds. Acts 14:13
- But the apostles Barnabas and Paul, having heard it, rent their garments, and rushed out to the crowd, crying Acts 14:14
- and saying, Men, why do ye these things? *We* also are men of like passions with you, preaching to you to turn from these vanities to the living God, who made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and all things in them; Acts 14:15
- who in the past generations suffered all the nations to go in their own ways, Acts 14:16
- though indeed he did not leave himself without witness, doing good, and giving to you from heaven rain and fruitful seasons, filling your hearts with food and gladness. Acts 14:17
- And saying these things, they with difficulty kept the crowds from sacrificing to them. Acts 14:18
- But there came Jews from Antioch and Iconium, and having persuaded the crowds and stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing him to have died. Acts 14:19
- But while the disciples encircled him, he rose up and entered into the city. And on the morrow he went away with Barnabas to Derbe. Acts 14:20
- And having announced the glad tidings to that city, and having made many disciples, they returned to Lystra, and Iconium, and Antioch, Acts 14:21
- establishing the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to abide in the faith, and that through many tribulations we must enter into the kingdom of God. Acts 14:22
- And having chosen them elders in each assembly, having prayed with fastings, they committed them to the Lord, on whom they had believed. Acts 14:23
- And having passed through Pisidia they came to Pamphylia, Acts 14:24
- and having spoken the word in Perga, they came down to Attalia; Acts 14:25
- and thence they sailed away to Antioch, whence they had been committed to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled. Acts 14:26
- And having arrived, and having brought together the assembly, they related to them all that God had done with them, and that he had opened a door of faith to the nations. Acts 14:27
- And certain persons, having come down from Judaea, taught the brethren, If ye shall not have been circumcised according to the custom of Moses, ye cannot be saved. Acts 15:1
- A commotion therefore having taken place, and no small discussion on the part of Paul and Barnabas against them, they arranged that Paul and Barnabas, and certain others from amongst them, should go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question. Acts 15:2
- They therefore, having been set on their way by the assembly, passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, relating the conversion of those of the nations. And they caused great joy to all the brethren. Acts 15:3
- And some of those who were of the sect of the Pharisees, who believed, rose up from among them, saying that they ought to circumcise them and enjoin them to keep the law of Moses. Acts 15:5
- And the apostles and the elders were gathered together to see about this matter. Acts 15:6
- And much discussion having taken place, Peter, standing up, said to them, Brethren, *ye* know that from the earliest days God amongst you chose that the nations by my mouth should hear the word of the glad tidings and believe. Acts 15:7
- And the heart-knowing God bore them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit as to us also, Acts 15:8
- Now therefore why tempt ye God, by putting a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear? Acts 15:10
- And all the multitude kept silence and listened to Barnabas and Paul relating all the signs and wonders which God had wrought among the nations by them. Acts 15:12
- And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Brethren, listen to me: Acts 15:13
- Simon has related how God first visited to take out of the nations a people for his name. Acts 15:14
- Wherefore *I* judge, not to trouble those who from the nations turn to God; Acts 15:19
- but to write to them to abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from what is strangled, and from blood. Acts 15:20
- Then it seemed good to the apostles and to the elders, with the whole assembly, to send chosen men from among them with Paul and Barnabas to Antioch, Judas called Barsabas and Silas, leading men among the brethren, Acts 15:22
- having by their hand written thus: The apostles, and the elders, and the brethren, to the brethren who are from among the nations at Antioch, and in Syria and Cilicia, greeting: Acts 15:23
- Inasmuch as we have heard that some who went out from amongst us have troubled you by words, upsetting your souls, saying that ye must be circumcised and keep the law; to whom we gave no commandment; Acts 15:24
- it seemed good to us, having arrived at a common judgment, to send chosen men to you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, Acts 15:25
- For it has seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: Acts 15:28
- to abstain from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what is strangled, and from fornication; keeping yourselves from which ye will do well. Farewell. Acts 15:29
- They therefore, being let go, came to Antioch, and having gathered the multitude delivered to them the epistle. Acts 15:30
- And having passed some time there, they were let go in peace from the brethren to those who sent them. Acts 15:33
- But after certain days Paul said to Barnabas, Let us return now and visit the brethren in every city where we have announced the word of the Lord, and see how they are getting on. Acts 15:36
- And Barnabas proposed to take with them John also, called Mark; Acts 15:37
- but Paul thought it not well to take with them him who had abandoned them, going back from Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work. Acts 15:38
- There arose therefore very warm feeling, so that they separated from one another; and Barnabas taking Mark sailed away to Cyprus; Acts 15:39
- but Paul having chosen Silas went forth, committed by the brethren to the grace of God. Acts 15:40
- And he came to Derbe and Lystra: and behold, a certain disciple was there, by name Timotheus, son of a Jewish believing woman, but the father a Greek, Acts 16:1
- And as they passed through the cities they instructed them to observe the decrees determined on by the apostles and elders who were in Jerusalem. Acts 16:4
- And having passed through Phrygia and the Galatian country, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia, Acts 16:6
- having come down to Mysia, they attempted to go to Bithynia, and the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them; Acts 16:7
- and having passed by Mysia they descended to Troas. Acts 16:8
- And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: There was a certain Macedonian man, standing and beseeching him, and saying, Pass over into Macedonia and help us. Acts 16:9
- And when he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go forth to Macedonia, concluding that the Lord had called us to announce to them the glad tidings. Acts 16:10
- Having sailed therefore away from Troas, we went in a straight course to Samothracia, and on the morrow to Neapolis, Acts 16:11
- and thence to Philippi, which is the first city of that part of Macedonia, a colony. And we were staying in that city certain days. Acts 16:12
- And on the sabbath day we went outside the gate by the river, where it was the custom for prayer to be, and we sat down and spoke to the women who had assembled. Acts 16:13
- And a certain woman, by name Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, who worshipped God, heard; whose heart the Lord opened to attend to the things spoken by Paul. Acts 16:14
- And when she had been baptised and her house, she besought us, saying, If ye have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and abide there. And she constrained us. Acts 16:15
- And it came to pass as we were going to prayer that a certain female slave, having a spirit of Python, met us, who brought much profit to her masters by prophesying. Acts 16:16
- She, having followed Paul and us, cried saying, These men are bondmen of the Most High God, who announce to you the way of salvation. Acts 16:17
- And this she did many days. And Paul, being distressed, turned, and said to the spirit, I enjoin thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And it came out the same hour. Acts 16:18
- and having brought them up to the praetors, said, These men utterly trouble our city, being Jews, Acts 16:20
- and announce customs which it is not lawful for us to receive nor practise, being Romans. Acts 16:21
- And the crowd rose up too against them; and the praetors, having torn off their clothes, commanded to scourge them. Acts 16:22
- And having laid many stripes upon them they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely; Acts 16:23
- who, having received such a charge, cast them into the inner prison, and secured their feet to the stocks. Acts 16:24
- And at midnight Paul and Silas, in praying, were praising God with singing, and the prisoners listened to them. Acts 16:25
- And the jailor being awakened out of his sleep, and seeing the doors of the prison opened, having drawn a sword was going to kill himself, thinking the prisoners had fled. Acts 16:27
- And they spoke to him the word of the Lord, with all that were in his house. Acts 16:32
- And the jailor reported these words to Paul: The praetors have sent that ye may be let go. Now therefore go out and depart in peace. Acts 16:36
- But Paul said to them, Having beaten us publicly uncondemned, us who are Romans, they have cast us into prison, and now they thrust us out secretly? no, indeed, but let them come themselves and bring us out. Acts 16:37
- And the lictors reported these words to the praetors. And they were afraid when they heard they were Romans. Acts 16:38
- And they came and besought them, and having brought them out, asked them to go out of the city. Acts 16:39
- And having gone out of the prison, they came to Lydia; and having seen the brethren, they exhorted them and went away. Acts 16:40
- And having journeyed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was the synagogue of the Jews. Acts 17:1
- And according to Paul's custom he went in among them, and on three sabbaths reasoned with them from the scriptures, Acts 17:2
- opening and laying down that the Christ must have suffered and risen up from among the dead, and that this is the Christ, Jesus whom *I* announce to you. Acts 17:3
- And some of them believed, and joined themselves to Paul and Silas, and of the Greeks who worshipped, a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few. Acts 17:4
- But the Jews having been stirred up to jealousy, and taken to themselves certain wicked men of the lowest rabble, and having got a crowd together, set the city in confusion; and having beset the house of Jason sought to bring them out to the people; Acts 17:5
- whom Jason has received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying, that there is another king, Jesus. Acts 17:7
- But the brethren immediately sent away, in the night, Paul and Silas to Berea; who, being arrived, went away into the synagogue of the Jews. Acts 17:10
- And then immediately the brethren sent away Paul to go as to the sea; but Silas and Timotheus abode there. Acts 17:14
- But they that conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens; and, having received a commandment to Silas and Timotheus, that they should come to him as quickly as possible, they departed. Acts 17:15
- But in Athens, while Paul was waiting for them, his spirit was painfully excited in him seeing the city given up to idolatry. Acts 17:16
- But some also of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers attacked him. And some said, What would this chatterer say? and some, He seems to be an announcer of foreign demons, because he announced the glad tidings of Jesus and the resurrection to them. Acts 17:18
- And having taken hold on him they brought him to Areopagus, saying, Might we know what this new doctrine which is spoken by thee is? Acts 17:19
- For thou bringest certain strange things to our ears. We wish therefore to know what these things may mean. Acts 17:20
- Now all the Athenians and the strangers sojourning there spent their time in nothing else than to tell and to hear the news. Acts 17:21
- And Paul standing in the midst of Areopagus said, Athenians, in every way I see you given up to demon worship; Acts 17:22
- for, passing through and beholding your shrines, I found also an altar on which was inscribed, To the unknown God. Whom therefore ye reverence, not knowing him, him I announce to you. Acts 17:23
- nor is served by men's hands as needing something, himself giving to all life and breath and all things; Acts 17:25
- and has made of one blood every nation of men to dwell upon the whole face of the earth, having determined ordained times and the boundaries of their dwelling, Acts 17:26
- Being therefore the offspring of God, we ought not to think that which is divine to be like gold or silver or stone, the graven form of man's art and imagination. Acts 17:29
- because he has set a day in which he is going to judge the habitable earth in righteousness by the man whom he has appointed, giving the proof of it to all in having raised him from among the dead. Acts 17:31
- But some men joining themselves to him believed; among whom also was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman by name Damaris, and others with them. Acts 17:34
- And after these things, having left Athens, he came to Corinth; Acts 18:1
- and finding a certain Jew by name Aquila, of Pontus by race, just come from Italy, and Priscilla his wife, (because Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome,) came to them, Acts 18:2
- And when both Silas and Timotheus came down from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in respect of the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ. Acts 18:5
- But as they opposed and spoke injuriously, he shook his clothes, and said to them, Your blood be upon your own head: *I* am pure; from henceforth I will go to the nations. Acts 18:6
- And departing thence he came to the house of a certain man, by name Justus, who worshipped God, whose house adjoined the synagogue. Acts 18:7
- And the Lord said by vision in the night to Paul, Fear not, but speak and be not silent; Acts 18:9
- because *I* am with thee, and no one shall set upon thee to injure thee; because I have much people in this city. Acts 18:10
- But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one consent rose against Paul and led him to the judgment-seat, Acts 18:12
- saying, This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law. Acts 18:13
- But as Paul was going to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If indeed it was some wrong or wicked criminality, O Jews, of reason I should have borne with you; Acts 18:14
- but if it be questions about words, and names, and the law that ye have, see to it yourselves; for *I* do not intend to be judge of these things. Acts 18:15
- And Paul, having yet stayed there many days, took leave of the brethren and sailed thence to Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila, having shorn his head in Cenchrea, for he had a vow; Acts 18:18
- but bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep the coming feast at Jerusalem; I will return to you again, if God will: and he sailed away from Ephesus. Acts 18:21
- And landing at Caesarea, and having gone up and saluted the assembly, he went down to Antioch. Acts 18:22
- And *he* began to speak boldly in the synagogue. And Aquila and Priscilla, having heard him, took him to them and unfolded to him the way of God more exactly. Acts 18:26
- And when he purposed to go into Achaia, the brethren wrote to the disciples engaging them to receive him, who, being come, contributed much to those who believed through grace. Acts 18:27
- And it came to pass, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper districts, came to Ephesus, and finding certain disciples, Acts 19:1
- he said to them, Did ye receive the Holy Spirit when ye had believed? And they said to him, We did not even hear if the Holy Spirit was come. Acts 19:2
- And he said, To what then were ye baptised? And they said, To the baptism of John. Acts 19:3
- And Paul said, John indeed baptised with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on him that was coming after him, that is, on Jesus. Acts 19:4
- And when they heard that, they were baptised to the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 19:5
- And certain of the Jewish exorcists also, who went about, took in hand to call upon those who had wicked spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, I adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preaches. Acts 19:13
- But the wicked spirit answering said to them, Jesus I know, and Paul I am acquainted with; but *ye*, who are ye? Acts 19:15
- And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who inhabited Ephesus, and fear fell upon all of them, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified. Acts 19:17
- And when these things were fulfilled, Paul purposed in his spirit to go to Jerusalem, passing through Macedonia and Achaia, saying, After I have been there I must see Rome also. Acts 19:21
- And having sent into Macedonia two of those ministering to him, Timotheus and Erastus, he remained himself awhile in Asia. Acts 19:22
- For a certain man by name Demetrius, a silver-beater, making silver temples of Artemis, brought no small gain to the artisans; Acts 19:24
- And the whole city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord to the theatre, having seized and carried off with them Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, fellow-travellers of Paul. Acts 19:29
- But Paul intending to go in to the people, the disciples suffered him not; Acts 19:30
- and some of the Asiarchs also, who were his friends, sent to him and urged him not to throw himself into the theatre. Acts 19:31
- But from among the crowd they put forward Alexander, the Jews pushing him forward. And Alexander, beckoning with his hand, would have made a defence to the people. Acts 19:33
- For also we are in danger to be put in accusation for sedition for this affair of to-day, no cause existing in reference to which we shall be able to give a reason for this concourse. Acts 19:40
- But after the tumult had ceased, Paul having called the disciples to him and embraced them, went away to go to Macedonia. Acts 20:1
- And having passed through those parts, and having exhorted them with much discourse, he came to Greece. Acts 20:2
- And having spent three months there, a treacherous plot against him having been set on foot by the Jews, as he was going to sail to Syria, the resolution was adopted of returning through Macedonia. Acts 20:3
- but we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and we came to them to Troas in five days, where we spent seven days. Acts 20:6
- And the first day of the week, we being assembled to break bread, Paul discoursed to them, about to depart on the morrow. And he prolonged the discourse till midnight. Acts 20:7
- And a certain youth, by name Eutychus, sitting at the window-opening, overpowered by deep sleep, while Paul discoursed very much at length, having been overpowered by the sleep, fell from the third story down to the bottom, and was taken up dead. Acts 20:9
- And we, having gone before on board ship, sailed off to Assos, going to take in Paul there; for so he had directed, he himself being about to go on foot. Acts 20:13
- And when he met with us at Assos, having taken him on board, we came to Mitylene; Acts 20:14
- and having sailed thence, on the morrow arrived opposite Chios, and the next day put in at Samos; and having stayed at Trogyllium, the next day we came to Miletus: Acts 20:15
- for Paul thought it desirable to sail by Ephesus, so that he might not be made to spend time in Asia; for he hastened, if it was possible for him, to be the day of Pentecost at Jerusalem. Acts 20:16
- But from Miletus having sent to Ephesus, he called over to him the elders of the assembly. Acts 20:17
- And when they were come to him, he said to them, *Ye* know how I was with you all the time from the first day that I arrived in Asia, Acts 20:18
- serving the Lord with all lowliness, and tears, and temptations, which happened to me through the plots of the Jews; Acts 20:19
- how I held back nothing of what is profitable, so as not to announce it to you, and to teach you publicly and in every house, Acts 20:20
- testifying to both Jews and Greeks repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ. Acts 20:21
- And now, behold, bound in my spirit *I* go to Jerusalem, not knowing what things shall happen to me in it; Acts 20:22
- only that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city, saying that bonds and tribulations await me. Acts 20:23
- But I make no account of my life as dear to myself, so that I finish my course, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the glad tidings of the grace of God. Acts 20:24
- Wherefore I witness to you this day, that I am clean from the blood of all, Acts 20:26
- for I have not shrunk from announcing to you all the counsel of God. Acts 20:27
- Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, wherein the Holy Spirit has set you as overseers, to shepherd the assembly of God, which he has purchased with the blood of his own. Acts 20:28
- and from among your own selves shall rise up men speaking perverted things to draw away the disciples after them. Acts 20:30
- And now I commit you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and give to you an inheritance among all the sanctified. Acts 20:32
- Yourselves know that these hands have ministered to my wants, and to those who were with me. Acts 20:34
- I have shewed you all things, that thus labouring we ought to come in aid of the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. Acts 20:35
- specially pained by the word which he had said, that they would no more see his face. And they went down with him to the ship. Acts 20:38
- And when, having got away from them, we at last sailed away, we came by a direct course to Cos, and on the morrow to Rhodes, and thence to Patara. Acts 21:1
- and having sighted Cyprus, and left it on the left hand, we sailed to Syria, and made the land at Tyre, for there the ship was to discharge her cargo. Acts 21:3
- And having found out the disciples, we remained there seven days; who said to Paul by the Spirit not to go up to Jerusalem. Acts 21:4
- And leaving on the morrow, we came to Caesarea; and entering into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was of the seven, we abode with him. Acts 21:8
- and coming to us and taking the girdle of Paul, and having bound his own hands and feet, said, Thus saith the Holy Spirit, The man whose this girdle is shall the Jews thus bind in Jerusalem, and deliver him up into the hands of the Gentiles. Acts 21:11
- And when we heard these things, both we and those of the place besought him not to go up to Jerusalem. Acts 21:12
- But Paul answered, What do ye, weeping and breaking my heart? for *I* am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 21:13
- And after these days, having got our effects ready, we went up to Jerusalem. Acts 21:15
- And some of the disciples from Caesarea went with us, bringing with them a certain Mnason, a Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we were to lodge. Acts 21:16
- And on the morrow Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders came there. Acts 21:18
- And they having heard it glorified God, and said to him, Thou seest, brother, how many myriads there are of the Jews who have believed, and all are zealous of the law. Acts 21:20
- This do therefore that we say to thee: We have four men who have a vow on them; Acts 21:23
- But concerning those of the nations who have believed, we have written, deciding that they should observe no such thing, only to keep themselves both from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication. Acts 21:25
- And as they were seeking to kill him, a representation came to the chiliarch of the band that the whole of Jerusalem was in a tumult; Acts 21:31
- Then the chiliarch came up and laid hold upon him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains, and inquired who he might be, and what he had done. Acts 21:33
- And different persons cried some different thing in the crowd. But he, not being able to know the certainty on account of the uproar, commanded him to be brought into the fortress. Acts 21:34
- But as he was about to be led into the fortress, Paul says to the chiliarch, Is it allowed me to say something to thee? And he said, Dost thou know Greek? Acts 21:37
- But Paul said, *I* am a Jew of Tarsus, citizen of no insignificant city of Cilicia, and I beseech of thee, allow me to speak to the people. Acts 21:39
- And when he had allowed him, Paul, standing on the stairs, beckoned with his hand to the people; and a great silence having been made, he addressed them in the Hebrew tongue, saying, Acts 21:40
- Brethren and fathers, hear my defence which I now make to you. Acts 22:1
- *I* am a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city, at the feet of Gamaliel, educated according to the exactness of the law of our fathers, being zealous for God, as *ye* are all this day; Acts 22:3
- who have persecuted this way unto death, binding and delivering up to prisons both men and women; Acts 22:4
- as also the high priest bears me witness, and all the elderhood: from whom also, having received letters to the brethren, I went to Damascus to bring those also who were there, bound, to Jerusalem, to be punished. Acts 22:5
- And it came to pass, as I was journeying and drawing near to Damascus, that, about mid-day, there suddenly shone out of heaven a great light round about me. Acts 22:6
- And I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? Acts 22:7
- And *I* answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said to me, *I* am Jesus the Nazaraean, whom *thou* persecutest. Acts 22:8
- But they that were with me beheld the light, and were filled with fear, but heard not the voice of him that was speaking to me. Acts 22:9
- And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Rise up, and go to Damascus, and there it shall be told thee of all things which it is appointed thee to do. Acts 22:10
- And as I could not see, through the glory of that light, being led by the hand of those who were with me, I came to Damascus. Acts 22:11
- And a certain Ananias, a pious man according to the law, borne witness to by all the Jews who dwelt there, Acts 22:12
- coming to me and standing by me, said to me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And *I*, in the same hour, received my sight and saw him. Acts 22:13
- And he said, The God of our fathers has chosen thee beforehand to know his will, and to see the just one, and to hear a voice out of his mouth; Acts 22:14
- for thou shalt be a witness for him to all men of what thou hast seen and heard. Acts 22:15
- And it came to pass when I had returned to Jerusalem, and as I was praying in the temple, that I became in ecstasy, Acts 22:17
- and saw him saying to me, Make haste and go quickly out of Jerusalem, for they will not receive thy testimony concerning me. Acts 22:18
- And he said to me, Go, for *I* will send thee to the nations afar off. Acts 22:21
- the chiliarch commanded him to be brought into the fortress, saying that he should be examined by scourging, that he might ascertain for what cause they cried thus against him. Acts 22:24
- But as they stretched him forward with the thongs, Paul said to the centurion who stood by, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman and uncondemned? Acts 22:25
- And the centurion, having heard it, went and reported it to the chiliarch, saying, What art thou going to do? for this man is a Roman. Acts 22:26
- And the chiliarch coming up said to him, Tell me, Art *thou* a Roman? And he said, Yes. Acts 22:27
- Immediately therefore those who were going to examine him left him, and the chiliarch also was afraid when he ascertained that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him. Acts 22:29
- And on the morrow, desirous to know the certainty of the matter why he was accused of the Jews, he loosed him, and commanded the chief priests and all the council to meet, and having brought Paul down set him before them. Acts 22:30
- But the high priest Ananias ordered those standing by him to smite his mouth. Acts 23:2
- Then Paul said to him, God will smite thee, whited wall. And *thou*, dost thou sit judging me according to the law, and breaking the law commandest me to be smitten? Acts 23:3
- And there was a great clamour, and the scribes of the Pharisees' part rising up contended, saying, We find nothing evil in this man; and if a spirit has spoken to him, or an angel ... Acts 23:9
- And a great tumult having arisen, the chiliarch, fearing lest Paul should have been torn in pieces by them, commanded the troop to come down and take him by force from the midst of them, and to bring him into the fortress. Acts 23:10
- and they went to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have cursed ourselves with a curse to taste nothing until we kill Paul. Acts 23:14
- Now therefore do ye with the council make a representation to the chiliarch so that he may bring him down to you, as about to determine more precisely what concerns him, and we, before he draws near, are ready to kill him. Acts 23:15
- But Paul's sister's son, having heard of the lying in wait, came and entered into the fortress and reported it to Paul. Acts 23:16
- And Paul, having called one of the centurions, said, Take this youth to the chiliarch, for he has something to report to him. Acts 23:17
- He therefore, having taken him with him, led him to the chiliarch, and says, The prisoner Paul called me to him and asked me to lead this youth to thee, who has something to say to thee. Acts 23:18
- And the chiliarch having taken him by the hand, and having gone apart in private, inquired, What is it that thou hast to report to me? Acts 23:19
- And he said, The Jews have agreed together to make a request to thee, that thou mayest bring Paul down to-morrow into the council, as about to inquire something more precise concerning him. Acts 23:20
- Do not thou then be persuaded by them, for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, who have put themselves under a curse neither to eat nor drink till they kill him; and now they are ready waiting the promise from thee. Acts 23:21
- The chiliarch then dismissed the youth, commanding him, Utter to no one that thou hast represented these things to me. Acts 23:22
- And having called to him certain two of the centurions, he said, Prepare two hundred soldiers that they may go as far as Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred light-armed footmen, for the third hour of the night. Acts 23:23
- And he ordered them to provide beasts, that they might set Paul on them and carry him safe through to Felix the governor, Acts 23:24
- Claudius Lysias to the most excellent governor Felix, greeting. Acts 23:26
- This man, having been taken by the Jews, and being about to be killed by them, I came up with the military and took out of their hands, having learned that he was a Roman. Acts 23:27
- And desiring to know the charge on which they accused him, I brought him down to their council; Acts 23:28
- whom I found to be accused of questions of their law, but to have no charge laid against him making him worthy of death or of bonds. Acts 23:29
- But having received information of a plot about to be put in execution against the man by the Jews, I have immediately sent him to thee, commanding also his accusers to say before thee the things that are against him. Farewell. Acts 23:30
- The soldiers therefore, according to what was ordered them, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris, Acts 23:31
- and on the morrow, having left the horsemen to go with him, returned to the fortress. Acts 23:32
- And these, having entered into Caesarea, and given up the letter to the governor, presented Paul also to him. Acts 23:33
- he said, I will hear thee fully when thine accusers also are arrived. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod's praetorium. Acts 23:35
- And he having been called, Tertullus began to accuse, saying, Seeing we enjoy great peace through thee, and that excellent measures are executed for this nation by thy forethought, Acts 24:2
- But that I may not too much intrude on thy time, I beseech thee to hear us briefly in thy kindness. Acts 24:4
- who also attempted to profane the temple; whom we also had seized, and would have judged according to our law; Acts 24:6
- having commanded his accusers to come to thee; of whom thou canst thyself, in examining him, know the certainty of all these things of which we accuse him. Acts 24:8
- But Paul, the governor having beckoned to him to speak, answered, Knowing that for many years thou hast been judge to this nation, I answer readily as to the things which concern myself. Acts 24:10
- As thou mayest know that there are not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem, Acts 24:11
- and neither in the temple did they find me discoursing to any one, or making any tumultuous gathering together of the crowd, nor in the synagogues, nor in the city; Acts 24:12
- But this I avow to thee, that in the way which they call sect, so I serve my fathers' God, believing all things which are written throughout the law, and in the prophets; Acts 24:14
- having hope towards God, which they themselves also receive, that there is to be a resurrection both of just and unjust. Acts 24:15
- For this cause I also exercise myself to have in everything a conscience without offence towards God and men. Acts 24:16
- And after a lapse of many years I arrived, bringing alms to my nation, and offerings. Acts 24:17
- who ought to appear before thee and accuse, if they have anything against me; Acts 24:19
- ordering the centurion to keep him, and that he should have freedom, and to hinder none of his friends to minister to him. Acts 24:23
- And as he reasoned concerning righteousness, and temperance, and the judgment about to come, Felix, being filled with fear, answered, Go for the present, and when I get an opportunity I will send for thee; Acts 24:25
- But when two years were completed, Felix was relieved by Porcius Festus as his successor; and Felix, desirous to oblige the Jews, to acquire their favour, left Paul bound. Acts 24:27
- Festus therefore, being come into the eparchy, after three days went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea. Acts 25:1
- asking as a grace against him that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying people in wait to kill him on the way. Acts 25:3
- Festus therefore answered that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to set out shortly. Acts 25:4
- And having remained among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea; and on the next day, having sat down on the judgment-seat, commanded Paul to be brought. Acts 25:6
- And when he was come, the Jews who were come down from Jerusalem stood round, bringing many and grievous charges which they were not able to prove: Acts 25:7
- But Festus, desirous of obliging the Jews, to acquire their favour, answering Paul, said, Art thou willing to go up to Jerusalem, there to be judged before me concerning these things? Acts 25:9
- But Paul said, I am standing before the judgment-seat of Caesar, where I ought to be judged. To the Jews have I done no wrong, as *thou* also very well knowest. Acts 25:10
- If then I have done any wrong and committed anything worthy of death, I do not deprecate dying; but if there is nothing of those things of which they accuse me, no man can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar. Acts 25:11
- Then Festus, having conferred with the council, answered, Thou hast appealed to Caesar. To Caesar shalt thou go. Acts 25:12
- And when certain days had elapsed, Agrippa the king and Bernice arrived at Caesarea to salute Festus. Acts 25:13
- And when they had spent many days there, Festus laid before the king the matters relating to Paul, saying, There is a certain man left prisoner by Felix, Acts 25:14
- to whom I answered, It is not the custom of the Romans to give up any man before that the accused have the accusers face to face, and he have got opportunity of defence touching the charge. Acts 25:16
- When therefore they had come together here, without putting it off, I sat the next day on the judgment-seat and commanded the man to be brought: Acts 25:17
- but had against him certain questions of their own system of worship, and concerning a certain Jesus who is dead, whom Paul affirmed to be living. Acts 25:19
- And as I myself was at a loss as to an inquiry into these things, I said, Was he willing to go to Jerusalem and there to be judged concerning these things? Acts 25:20
- But Paul having appealed to be kept for the cognisance of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I shall send him to Caesar. Acts 25:21
- And Agrippa said to Festus, I myself also would desire to hear the man. To-morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him. Acts 25:22
- And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men who are here present with us, ye see this person, concerning whom all the multitude of the Jews applied to me both in Jerusalem and here, crying out against him that he ought not to live any longer. Acts 25:24
- But I, having found that he had done nothing worthy of death, and this man himself having appealed to Augustus, I have decided to send him; Acts 25:25
- concerning whom I have nothing certain to write to my lord. Wherefore I have brought him before you, and specially before thee, king Agrippa, so that an examination having been gone into I may have something to write: Acts 25:26
- for it seems to me senseless, sending a prisoner, not also to signify the charges against him. Acts 25:27
- And Agrippa said to Paul, It is permitted thee to speak for thyself. Then Paul stretching out his hand answered in his defence: Acts 26:1
- I count myself happy, king Agrippa, in having to answer to-day before thee concerning all of which I am accused by the Jews, Acts 26:2
- especially because thou art acquainted with all the customs and questions which are among the Jews; wherefore I beseech thee to hear me patiently. Acts 26:3
- who knew me before from the outset of my life, if they would bear witness, that according to the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee. Acts 26:5
- And now I stand to be judged because of the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers, Acts 26:6
- to which our whole twelve tribes serving incessantly day and night hope to arrive; about which hope, O king, I am accused of the Jews. Acts 26:7
- *I* indeed myself thought that I ought to do much against the name of Jesus the Nazaraean. Acts 26:9
- Which also I did in Jerusalem, and myself shut up in prisons many of the saints, having received the authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death I gave my vote. Acts 26:10
- And often punishing them in all the synagogues, I compelled them to blaspheme. And, being exceedingly furious against them, I persecuted them even to cities out of our own land. Acts 26:11
- And when, engaged in this, I was journeying to Damascus, with authority and power from the chief priests, Acts 26:12
- And, when we were all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against goads. Acts 26:14
- but rise up and stand on thy feet; for, for this purpose have I appeared to thee, to appoint thee to be a servant and a witness both of what thou hast seen, and of what I shall appear to thee in, Acts 26:16
- taking thee out from among the people, and the nations, to whom *I* send thee, Acts 26:17
- to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and inheritance among them that are sanctified by faith in me. Acts 26:18
- Whereupon, king Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision; Acts 26:19
- but have, first to those both in Damascus and Jerusalem, and to all the region of Judaea, and to the nations, announced that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance. Acts 26:20
- On account of these things the Jews, having seized me in the temple, attempted to lay hands on and destroy me. Acts 26:21
- Having therefore met with the help which is from God, I have stood firm unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying nothing else than those things which both the prophets and Moses have said should happen, Acts 26:22
- namely, whether Christ should suffer; whether he first, through resurrection of the dead, should announce light both to the people and to the nations. Acts 26:23
- And as he answered for his defence with these things, Festus says with a loud voice, Thou art mad, Paul; much learning turns thee to madness. Acts 26:24
- for the king is informed about these things, to whom also I speak with all freedom. For I am persuaded that of these things nothing is hidden from him; for this was not done in a corner. Acts 26:26
- And Agrippa said to Paul, In a little thou persuadest me to become a Christian. Acts 26:28
- And Paul said, I would to God, both in little and in much, that not only thou, but all who have heard me this day, should become such as *I* also am, except these bonds. Acts 26:29
- and having gone apart, they spoke to one another saying, This man does nothing worthy of death or of bonds. Acts 26:31
- And Agrippa said to Festus, This man might have been let go if he had not appealed to Caesar. Acts 26:32
- But when it had been determined that we should sail to Italy, they delivered up Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion, by name Julius, of Augustus' company. Acts 27:1
- And going on board a ship of Adramyttium about to navigate by the places along Asia, we set sail, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us. Acts 27:2
- And the next day we arrived at Sidon. And Julius treated Paul kindly and suffered him to go to his friends and refresh himself. Acts 27:3
- And having sailed over the waters of Cilicia and Pamphylia we came to Myra in Lycia: Acts 27:5
- and there the centurion having found a ship of Alexandria sailing to Italy, he made us go on board her. Acts 27:6
- and coasting it with difficulty we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near to which was the city of Lasaea. Acts 27:8
- And the harbour being ill adapted to winter in, the most counselled to set sail thence, if perhaps they might reach Phoenice to winter in, a port of Crete looking north-east and south-east. Acts 27:12
- And the ship being caught and driven, and not able to bring her head to the wind, letting her go we were driven before it. Acts 27:15
- But running under the lee of a certain island called Clauda, we were with difficulty able to make ourselves masters of the boat; Acts 27:16
- And when they had been a long while without taking food, Paul then standing up in the midst of them said, Ye ought, O men, to have hearkened to me, and not have made sail from Crete and have gained this disaster and loss. Acts 27:21
- And now I exhort you to be of good courage, for there shall be no loss at all of life of any of you, only of the ship. Acts 27:22
- saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must stand before Caesar; and behold, God has granted to thee all those that sail with thee. Acts 27:24
- Wherefore be of good courage, men, for I believe God that thus it shall be, as it has been said to me. Acts 27:25
- But the sailors wishing to flee out of the ship, and having let down the boat into the sea under pretext of being about to carry out anchors from the prow, Acts 27:30
- Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, Unless these abide in the ship *ye* cannot be saved. Acts 27:31
- And while it was drawing on to daylight, Paul exhorted them all to partake of food, saying, Ye have passed the fourteenth day watching in expectation without taking food. Acts 27:33
- Wherefore I exhort you to partake of food, for this has to do with your safety; for not a hair from the head of any one of you shall perish. Acts 27:34
- And, having said these things and taken a loaf, he gave thanks to God before all, and having broken it began to eat. Acts 27:35
- And when it was day they did not recognise the land; but they perceived a certain bay having a strand, on which they were minded, if they should be able, to run the ship ashore; Acts 27:39
- and, having cast off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time loosening the lashings of the rudders, and hoisting the foresail to the wind, they made for the strand. Acts 27:40
- But the centurion, desirous of saving Paul, hindered them of their purpose, and commanded those who were able to swim, casting themselves first into the sea, to get out on land; Acts 27:43
- and the rest, some on boards, some on some of the things that came from the ship; and thus it came to pass that all got safe to land. Acts 27:44
- And when we got safe to land we then knew that the island was called Melita. Acts 28:1
- And when the barbarians saw the beast hanging from his hand, they said to one another, This man is certainly a murderer, whom, though saved out of the sea, Nemesis has not allowed to live. Acts 28:4
- But *they* expected that he would have swollen or fallen down suddenly dead. But when they had expected a long time and saw nothing unusual happen to him, changing their opinion, they said he was a god. Acts 28:6
- Now in the country surrounding that place were the lands belonging to the chief man of the island, by name Publius, who received us and gave us hospitality three days in a very friendly way. Acts 28:7
- And it happened that the father of Publius lay ill of fever and dysentery; to whom Paul entered in, and having prayed and laid his hands on him cured him. Acts 28:8
- who also honoured us with many honours, and on our leaving they made presents to us of what should minister to our wants. Acts 28:10
- And having come to Syracuse we remained three days. Acts 28:12
- Whence, going in a circuitous course, we arrived at Rhegium; and after one day, the wind having changed to south, on the second day we came to Puteoli, Acts 28:13
- where, having found brethren, we were begged to stay with them seven days. And thus we went to Rome. Acts 28:14
- And thence the brethren, having heard about us, came to meet us as far as Appii Forum and Tres Tabernae, whom when Paul saw, he thanked God and took courage. Acts 28:15
- And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered up the prisoners to the praetorian prefect, but Paul was allowed to remain by himself with the soldier who kept him. Acts 28:16
- And it came to pass after three days, that he called together those who were the chief of the Jews; and when they had come together he said to them, Brethren, *I* having done nothing against the people or the customs of our forefathers, have been delivered a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans, Acts 28:17
- who having examined me were minded to let me go, because there was nothing worthy of death in me. Acts 28:18
- But the Jews speaking against it, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, not as having anything to accuse my nation of. Acts 28:19
- For this cause therefore I have called you to me to see and to speak to you; for on account of the hope of Israel I have this chain about me. Acts 28:20
- And they said to him, For our part, we have neither received letters from Judaea concerning thee, nor has any one of the brethren who has arrived reported or said anything evil concerning thee. Acts 28:21
- But we beg to hear of thee what thou thinkest, for as concerning this sect it is known to us that it is everywhere spoken against. Acts 28:22
- And having appointed him a day many came to him to the lodging, to whom he expounded, testifying of the kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and the prophets, from early morning to evening. Acts 28:23
- And being disagreed among themselves they left; Paul having spoken one word, Well spoke the Holy Spirit through Esaias the prophet to our fathers, Acts 28:25
- saying, Go to this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear and not understand, and seeing ye shall see and not perceive. Acts 28:26
- Be it known to you therefore, that this salvation of God has been sent to the nations; *they* also will hear it. Acts 28:28
- And he remained two whole years in his own hired lodging, and received all who came to him, Acts 28:30
- Paul, bondman of Jesus Christ, a called apostle, separated to God's glad tidings, Rom. 1:1
- concerning his Son (come of David's seed according to flesh, Rom. 1:3
- marked out Son of God in power, according to the Spirit of holiness, by resurrection of the dead) Jesus Christ our Lord; Rom. 1:4
- to all that are in Rome, beloved of God, called saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and our Lord Jesus Christ. Rom. 1:7
- always beseeching at my prayers, if any way now at least I may be prospered by the will of God to come to you. Rom. 1:10
- For I greatly desire to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to establish you; Rom. 1:11
- that is, to have mutual comfort among you, each by the faith which is in the other, both yours and mine. Rom. 1:12
- But I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, that I often proposed to come to you, (and have been hindered until the present time,) that I might have some fruit among you too, even as among the other nations also. Rom. 1:13
- I am a debtor both to Greeks and barbarians, both to wise and unintelligent: Rom. 1:14
- so, as far as depends on me, am I ready to announce the glad tidings to you also who are in Rome. Rom. 1:15
- For I am not ashamed of the glad tidings; for it is God's power to salvation, to every one that believes, both to Jew first and to Greek: Rom. 1:16
- for righteousness of God is revealed therein, on the principle of faith, to faith: according as it is written, But the just shall live by faith. Rom. 1:17
- Because what is known of God is manifest among them, for God has manifested it to them, Rom. 1:19
- -- for from the world's creation the invisible things of him are perceived, being apprehended by the mind through the things that are made, both his eternal power and divinity, -- so as to render them inexcusable. Rom. 1:20
- professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, Rom. 1:22
- Wherefore God gave them up also in the lusts of their hearts to uncleanness, to dishonour their bodies between themselves: Rom. 1:24
- For this reason God gave them up to vile lusts; for both their females changed the natural use into that contrary to nature; Rom. 1:26
- And according as they did not think good to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a reprobate mind to practise unseemly things; Rom. 1:28
- back-biters, hateful to God, insolent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, Rom. 1:30
- But we know that the judgment of God is according to truth upon those who do such things. Rom. 2:2
- or despisest thou the riches of his goodness, and forbearance, and long-suffering, not knowing that the goodness of God leads thee to repentance? Rom. 2:4
- but, according to thy hardness and impenitent heart, treasurest up to thyself wrath, in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, Rom. 2:5
- who shall render to each according to his works: Rom. 2:6
- to them who, in patient continuance of good works, seek for glory and honour and incorruptibility, life eternal. Rom. 2:7
- But to those that are contentious, and are disobedient to the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there shall be wrath and indignation, Rom. 2:8
- but glory and honour and peace to every one that works good, both to Jew first and to Greek: Rom. 2:10
- For when those of the nations, which have no law, practise by nature the things of the law, these, having no law, are a law to themselves; Rom. 2:14
- in the day when God shall judge the secrets of men, according to my glad tidings, by Jesus Christ. Rom. 2:16
- thou then that teachest another, dost thou not teach thyself? thou that preachest not to steal, dost thou steal? Rom. 2:21
- Much every way: and first, indeed, that to them were entrusted the oracles of God. Rom. 3:2
- But if our unrighteousness commend God's righteousness, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who inflicts wrath? I speak according to man. Rom. 3:5
- For if the truth of God, in my lie, has more abounded to his glory, why yet am *I* also judged as a sinner? Rom. 3:7
- swift their feet to shed blood; Rom. 3:15
- Now we know that whatever the things the law says, it speaks to those under the law, that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world be under judgment to God. Rom. 3:19
- But now without law righteousness of God is manifested, borne witness to by the law and the prophets; Rom. 3:21
- What shall we say then that Abraham our father according to flesh has found? Rom. 4:1
- For if Abraham has been justified on the principle of works, he has whereof to boast: but not before God; Rom. 4:2
- for what does the scripture say? And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness. Rom. 4:3
- Now to him that works the reward is not reckoned as of grace, but of debt: Rom. 4:4
- but to him who does not work, but believes on him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness. Rom. 4:5
- Even as David also declares the blessedness of the man to whom God reckons righteousness without works: Rom. 4:6
- blessed the man to whom the Lord shall not at all reckon sin. Rom. 4:8
- Does this blessedness then rest on the circumcision, or also on the uncircumcision? For we say that faith has been reckoned to Abraham as righteousness. Rom. 4:9
- And he received the sign of circumcision as seal of the righteousness of faith which he had being in uncircumcision, that he might be the father of all them that believe being in uncircumcision, that righteousness might be reckoned to them also; Rom. 4:11
- and father of circumcision, not only to those who are of the circumcision, but to those also who walk in the steps of the faith, during uncircumcision, of our father Abraham. Rom. 4:12
- For it was not by law that the promise was to Abraham, or to his seed, that he should be heir of the world, but by righteousness of faith. Rom. 4:13
- Therefore it is on the principle of faith, that it might be according to grace, in order to the promise being sure to all the seed, not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of Abraham's faith, who is father of us all, Rom. 4:16
- who against hope believed in hope to his becoming father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be: Rom. 4:18
- and hesitated not at the promise of God through unbelief; but found strength in faith, giving glory to God; Rom. 4:20
- and being fully persuaded that what he has promised he is able also to do; Rom. 4:21
- wherefore also it was reckoned to him as righteousness. Rom. 4:22
- Now it was not written on his account alone that it was reckoned to him, Rom. 4:23
- but on ours also, to whom, believing on him who has raised from among the dead Jesus our Lord, Rom. 4:24
- and hope does not make ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit which has been given to us: Rom. 5:5
- For scarcely for the just man will one die, for perhaps for the good man some one might also dare to die; Rom. 5:7
- but God commends *his* love to us, in that, we being still sinners, Christ has died for us. Rom. 5:8
- For if, being enemies, we have been reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much rather, having been reconciled, we shall be saved in the power of his life. Rom. 5:10
- (for until law sin was in the world; but sin is not put to account when there is no law; Rom. 5:13
- but death reigned from Adam until Moses, even upon those who had not sinned in the likeness of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him to come. Rom. 5:14
- And shall not as by one that has sinned be the gift? For the judgment was of one to condemnation, but the act of favour, of many offences unto justification. Rom. 5:16
- so then as it was by one offence towards all men to condemnation, so by one righteousness towards all men for justification of life. Rom. 5:18
- in order that, even as sin has reigned in the power of death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Rom. 5:21
- Far be the thought. We who have died to sin, how shall we still live in it? Rom. 6:2
- For in that he has died, he has died to sin once for all; but in that he lives, he lives to God. Rom. 6:10
- So also *ye*, reckon yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus. Rom. 6:11
- Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body to obey its lusts. Rom. 6:12
- Neither yield your members instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but yield yourselves to God as alive from among the dead, and your members instruments of righteousness to God. Rom. 6:13
- Know ye not that to whom ye yield yourselves bondmen for obedience, ye are bondmen to him whom ye obey, whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness? Rom. 6:16
- But thanks be to God, that ye were bondmen of sin, but have obeyed from the heart the form of teaching into which ye were instructed. Rom. 6:17
- Now, having got your freedom from sin, ye have become bondmen to righteousness. Rom. 6:18
- I speak humanly on account of the weakness of your flesh. For even as ye have yielded your members in bondage to uncleanness and to lawlessness unto lawlessness, so now yield your members in bondage to righteousness unto holiness. Rom. 6:19
- But *now*, having got your freedom from sin, and having become bondmen to God, ye have your fruit unto holiness, and the end eternal life. Rom. 6:22
- Are ye ignorant, brethren, (for I speak to those knowing law,) that law rules over a man as long as he lives? Rom. 7:1
- For the married woman is bound by law to her husband so long as he is alive; but if the husband should die, she is clear from the law of the husband: Rom. 7:2
- so then, the husband being alive, she shall be called an adulteress if she be to another man; but if the husband should die, she is free from the law, so as not to be an adulteress, though she be to another man. Rom. 7:3
- So that, my brethren, *ye* also have been made dead to the law by the body of the Christ, to be to another, who has been raised up from among the dead, in order that we might bear fruit to God. Rom. 7:4
- For when we were in the flesh the passions of sins, which were by the law, wrought in our members to bring forth fruit to death; Rom. 7:5
- And the commandment, which was for life, was found, as to me, itself to be unto death: Rom. 7:10
- Did then that which is good become death to me? Far be the thought. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death to me by that which is good; in order that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful. Rom. 7:13
- But if what I do not will, this I practise, I consent to the law that it is right. Rom. 7:16
- For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, good does not dwell: for to will is there with me, but to do right I find not. Rom. 7:18
- I find then the law upon *me* who will to practise what is right, that with *me* evil is there. Rom. 7:21
- For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man: Rom. 7:22
- but I see another law in my members, warring in opposition to the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which exists in my members. Rom. 7:23
- There is then now no condemnation to those in Christ Jesus. Rom. 8:1
- in order that the righteous requirement of the law should be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to flesh but according to Spirit. Rom. 8:4
- For they that are according to flesh mind the things of the flesh; and they that are according to Spirit, the things of the Spirit. Rom. 8:5
- Because the mind of the flesh is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God; for neither indeed can it be: Rom. 8:7
- So then, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to flesh; Rom. 8:12
- for if ye live according to flesh, ye are about to die; but if, by the Spirit, ye put to death the deeds of the body, ye shall live: Rom. 8:13
- For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the coming glory to be revealed to us. Rom. 8:18
- for the creature has been made subject to vanity, not of its will, but by reason of him who has subjected the same, in hope Rom. 8:20
- And in like manner the Spirit joins also its help to our weakness; for we do not know what we should pray for as is fitting, but the Spirit itself makes intercession with groanings which cannot be uttered. Rom. 8:26
- But he who searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he intercedes for saints according to God. Rom. 8:27
- But we *do* know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to purpose. Rom. 8:28
- Because whom he has foreknown, he has also predestinated to be conformed to the image of his Son, so that he should be the firstborn among many brethren. Rom. 8:29
- What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who against us? Rom. 8:31
- According as it is written, For thy sake we are put to death all the day long; we have been reckoned as sheep for slaughter. Rom. 8:36
- For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, Rom. 8:38
- nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Rom. 8:39
- for I have wished, I myself, to be a curse from the Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen, according to flesh; Rom. 9:3
- whose are the fathers; and of whom, as according to flesh, is the Christ, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. Rom. 9:5
- nor because they are seed of Abraham are all children: but, In Isaac shall a seed be called to thee. Rom. 9:7
- For this word is of promise, According to this time I will come, and there shall be a son to Sarah. Rom. 9:9
- the children indeed being not yet born, or having done anything good or worthless (that the purpose of God according to election might abide, not of works, but of him that calls), Rom. 9:11
- it was said to her, The greater shall serve the less: Rom. 9:12
- For he says to Moses, I will shew mercy to whom I will shew mercy, and I will feel compassion for whom I will feel compassion. Rom. 9:15
- For the scripture says to Pharaoh, For this very thing I have raised thee up from amongst men, that I might thus shew in thee my power, and so that my name should be declared in all the earth. Rom. 9:17
- So then, to whom he will he shews mercy, and whom he will he hardens. Rom. 9:18
- Thou wilt say to me then, Why does he yet find fault? for who resists his purpose? Rom. 9:19
- Aye, but thou, O man, who art *thou* that answerest again to God? Shall the thing formed say to him that has formed it, Why hast thou made me thus? Rom. 9:20
- Or has not the potter authority over the clay, out of the same lump to make one vessel to honour, and another to dishonour? Rom. 9:21
- And if God, minded to shew his wrath and to make his power known, endured with much long-suffering vessels of wrath fitted for destruction; Rom. 9:22
- And it shall be, in the place where it was said to them, *Ye* are not my people, there shall they be called Sons of the living God. Rom. 9:26
- for he is bringing the matter to an end, and cutting it short in righteousness; because a cutting short of the matter will the Lord accomplish upon the earth. Rom. 9:28
- But Israel, pursuing after a law of righteousness, has not attained to that law. Rom. 9:31
- Brethren, the delight of my own heart and my supplication which I address to God for them is for salvation. Rom. 10:1
- For I bear them witness that they have zeal for God, but not according to knowledge. Rom. 10:2
- For they, being ignorant of God's righteousness, and seeking to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted to the righteousness of God. Rom. 10:3
- For Christ is the end of law for righteousness to every one that believes. Rom. 10:4
- But the righteousness of faith speaks thus: Do not say in thine heart, Who shall ascend to the heavens? that is, to bring Christ down; Rom. 10:6
- or, Who shall descend into the abyss? that is, to bring up Christ from among the dead. Rom. 10:7
- For with the heart is believed to righteousness; and with the mouth confession made to salvation. Rom. 10:10
- But I say, Have they not heard? Yea, surely, Their voice has gone out into all the earth, and their words to the extremities of the habitable world. Rom. 10:18
- But I say, Has not Israel known? First, Moses says, *I* will provoke you to jealousy through them that are not a nation: through a nation without understanding I will anger you. Rom. 10:19
- But Esaias is very bold, and says, I have been found by those not seeking me; I have become manifest to those not inquiring after me. Rom. 10:20
- But what says the divine answer to him? I have left to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed knee to Baal. Rom. 11:4
- Thus, then, in the present time also there has been a remnant according to election of grace. Rom. 11:5
- according as it is written, God has given to them a spirit of slumber, eyes not to see, and ears not to hear, unto this day. Rom. 11:8
- And David says, Let their table be for a snare, and for a gin, and for a fall-trap, and for a recompense to them: Rom. 11:9
- let their eyes be darkened not to see, and bow down their back alway. Rom. 11:10
- I say then, Have they stumbled in order that they might fall? Far be the thought: but by their fall there is salvation to the nations to provoke them to jealousy. Rom. 11:11
- For I speak to you, the nations, inasmuch as *I* am apostle of nations, I glorify my ministry; Rom. 11:13
- if by any means I shall provoke to jealousy them which are my flesh, and shall save some from among them. Rom. 11:14
- And *they* too, if they abide not in unbelief, shall be grafted in; for God is able again to graft them in. Rom. 11:23
- For if *thou* hast been cut out of the olive tree wild by nature, and, contrary to nature, hast been grafted into the good olive tree, how much rather shall they, who are according to nature be grafted into their own olive tree? Rom. 11:24
- For I do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, of this mystery, that ye may not be wise in your own conceits, that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the nations be come in; Rom. 11:25
- And this is the covenant from me to them, when I shall have taken away their sins. Rom. 11:27
- For the gifts and the calling of God are not subject to repentance. Rom. 11:29
- For God hath shut up together all in unbelief, in order that he might shew mercy to all. Rom. 11:32
- or who has first given to him, and it shall be rendered to him? Rom. 11:35
- For of him, and through him, and for him are all things: to him be glory for ever. Amen. Rom. 11:36
- I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the compassions of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your intelligent service. Rom. 12:1
- And be not conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God. Rom. 12:2
- For I say, through the grace which has been given to me, to every one that is among you, not to have high thoughts above what he should think; but to think so as to be wise, as God has dealt to each a measure of faith. Rom. 12:3
- But having different gifts, according to the grace which has been given to us, whether it be prophecy, let us prophesy according to the proportion of faith; Rom. 12:6
- Let love be unfeigned; abhorring evil; cleaving to good: Rom. 12:9
- as to brotherly love, kindly affectioned towards one another: as to honour, each taking the lead in paying it to the other: Rom. 12:10
- as to diligent zealousness, not slothful; in spirit fervent; serving the Lord. Rom. 12:11
- distributing to the necessities of the saints; given to hospitality. Rom. 12:13
- recompensing to no one evil for evil: providing things honest before all men: Rom. 12:17
- not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to wrath; for it is written, Vengeance belongs to me, *I* will recompense, saith the Lord. Rom. 12:19
- Let every soul be subject to the authorities that are above him. For there is no authority except from God; and those that exist are set up by God. Rom. 13:1
- So that he that sets himself in opposition to the authority resists the ordinance of God; and they who thus resist shall bring sentence of guilt on themselves. Rom. 13:2
- For rulers are not a terror to a good work, but to an evil one. Dost thou desire then not to be afraid of the authority? practise what is good, and thou shalt have praise from it; Rom. 13:3
- for it is God's minister to thee for good. But if thou practisest evil, fear; for it bears not the sword in vain; for it is God's minister, an avenger for wrath to him that does evil. Rom. 13:4
- Wherefore it is necessary to be subject, not only on account of wrath, but also on account of conscience. Rom. 13:5
- Render to all their dues: to whom tribute is due, tribute; to whom custom, custom; to whom fear, fear; to whom honour, honour. Rom. 13:7
- Owe no one anything, unless to love one another: for he that loves another has fulfilled the law. Rom. 13:8
- Love works no ill to its neighbour; love therefore is the whole law. Rom. 13:10
- But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not take forethought for the flesh to fulfil its lusts. Rom. 13:14
- Now him that is weak in the faith receive, not to the determining of questions of reasoning. Rom. 14:1
- Who art *thou* that judgest the servant of another? to his own master he stands or falls. And he shall be made to stand; for the Lord is able to make him stand. Rom. 14:4
- He that regards the day, regards it to the Lord. And he that eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he that does not eat, it is to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks. Rom. 14:6
- For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself. Rom. 14:7
- For both if we should live, it is to the Lord we live; and if we should die, it is to the Lord we die: both if we should live then, and if we should die, we are the Lord's. Rom. 14:8
- For to this end Christ has died and lived again, that he might rule over both dead and living. Rom. 14:9
- For it is written, *I* live, saith the Lord, that to me shall bow every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God. Rom. 14:11
- So then each of us shall give an account concerning himself to God. Rom. 14:12
- Let us no longer therefore judge one another; but judge ye this rather, not to put a stumbling-block or a fall-trap before his brother. Rom. 14:13
- I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself; except to him who reckons anything to be unclean, to that man it is unclean. Rom. 14:14
- For if on account of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer according to love. Destroy not him with thy meat for whom Christ has died. Rom. 14:15
- For he that in this serves the Christ is acceptable to God and approved of men. Rom. 14:18
- So then let us pursue the things which tend to peace, and things whereby one shall build up another. Rom. 14:19
- For the sake of meat do not destroy the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil to that man who eats while stumbling in doing so. Rom. 14:20
- It is right not to eat meat, nor drink wine, nor do anything in which thy brother stumbles, or is offended, or is weak. Rom. 14:21
- Hast *thou* faith? have it to thyself before God. Blessed is he who does not judge himself in what he allows. Rom. 14:22
- But *we* ought, we that are strong, to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves. Rom. 15:1
- Let each one of us please his neighbour with a view to what is good, to edification. Rom. 15:2
- Now the God of endurance and of encouragement give to you to be like-minded one toward another, according to Christ Jesus; Rom. 15:5
- Wherefore receive ye one another, according as the Christ also has received you to the glory of God. Rom. 15:7
- For I say that Jesus Christ became a minister of the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises of the fathers; Rom. 15:8
- and that the nations should glorify God for mercy; according as it is written, For this cause I will confess to thee among the nations, and will sing to thy name. Rom. 15:9
- And again, Esaias says, There shall be the root of Jesse, and one that arises, to rule over the nations: in him shall the nations hope. Rom. 15:12
- But I am persuaded, my brethren, I myself also, concerning you, that yourselves also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another. Rom. 15:14
- But I have written to you the more boldly, brethren, in part, as putting you in mind, because of the grace given to me by God, Rom. 15:15
- for me to be minister of Christ Jesus to the nations, carrying on as a sacrificial service the message of glad tidings of God, in order that the offering up of the nations might be acceptable, sanctified by the Holy Spirit. Rom. 15:16
- I have therefore whereof to boast in Christ Jesus in the things which pertain to God. Rom. 15:17
- For I will not dare to speak anything of the things which Christ has not wrought by me, for the obedience of the nations, by word and deed, Rom. 15:18
- in the power of signs and wonders, in the power of the Spirit of God; so that I, from Jerusalem, and in a circuit round to Illyricum, have fully preached the glad tidings of the Christ; Rom. 15:19
- and so aiming to announce the glad tidings, not where Christ has been named, that I might not build upon another's foundation; Rom. 15:20
- but according as it is written, To whom there was nothing told concerning him, they shall see; and they that have not heard shall understand. Rom. 15:21
- Wherefore also I have been often hindered from coming to you. Rom. 15:22
- But now, having no longer place in these regions, and having great desire to come to you these many years, Rom. 15:23
- whenever I should go to Spain; (for I hope to see you as I go through, and by you to be set forward thither, if first I shall have been in part filled with your company;) Rom. 15:24
- but now I go to Jerusalem, ministering to the saints; Rom. 15:25
- for Macedonia and Achaia have been well pleased to make a certain contribution for the poor of the saints who are in Jerusalem. Rom. 15:26
- They have been well pleased indeed, and they are their debtors; for if the nations have participated in their spiritual things, they ought also in fleshly to minister to them. Rom. 15:27
- Having finished this therefore, and having sealed to them this fruit, I will set off by you into Spain. Rom. 15:28
- But I know that, coming to you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of Christ. Rom. 15:29
- But I beseech you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in prayers for me to God; Rom. 15:30
- that I may be saved from those that do not believe in Judaea; and that my ministry which I have for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints; Rom. 15:31
- in order that I may come to you in joy by God's will, and that I may be refreshed with you. Rom. 15:32
- But I commend to you Phoebe, our sister, who is minister of the assembly which is in Cenchrea; Rom. 16:1
- (who for my life staked their own neck; to whom not *I* only am thankful, but also all the assemblies of the nations,) Rom. 16:4
- Salute Apelles, approved in Christ. Salute those who belong to Aristobulus. Rom. 16:10
- Salute Herodion, my kinsman. Salute those who belong to Narcissus, who are in the Lord. Rom. 16:11
- But I beseech you, brethren, to consider those who create divisions and occasions of falling, contrary to the doctrine which *ye* have learnt, and turn away from them. Rom. 16:17
- For your obedience has reached to all. I rejoice therefore as it regards you; but I wish you to be wise as to that which is good, and simple as to evil. Rom. 16:19
- Now to him that is able to establish you, according to my glad tidings and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, as to which silence has been kept in the times of the ages, Rom. 16:25
- but which has now been made manifest, and by prophetic scriptures, according to commandment of the eternal God, made known for obedience of faith to all the nations -- Rom. 16:26
- the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory for ever. Amen. Rom. 16:27
- to the assembly of God which is in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus, called saints, with all that in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, both theirs and ours: 1 Cor. 1:2
- Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Cor. 1:3
- I thank my God always about you, in respect of the grace of God given to you in Christ Jesus; 1 Cor. 1:4
- who shall also confirm you to the end, unimpeachable in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Cor. 1:8
- For it has been shewn to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of the house of Chloe, that there are strifes among you. 1 Cor. 1:11
- For Christ has not sent me to baptise, but to preach glad tidings; not in wisdom of word, that the cross of the Christ may not be made vain. 1 Cor. 1:17
- For the word of the cross is to them that perish foolishness, but to us that are saved it is God's power. 1 Cor. 1:18
- For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom has not known God, God has been pleased by the foolishness of the preaching to save those that believe. 1 Cor. 1:21
- but *we* preach Christ crucified, to Jews an offence, and to nations foolishness; 1 Cor. 1:23
- but to those that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ God's power and God's wisdom. 1 Cor. 1:24
- For consider your calling, brethren, that there are not many wise according to flesh, not many powerful, not many high-born. 1 Cor. 1:26
- But God has chosen the foolish things of the world, that he may put to shame the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world, that he may put to shame the strong things; 1 Cor. 1:27
- But of him are *ye* in Christ Jesus, who has been made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness, and holiness, and redemption; 1 Cor. 1:30
- And *I*, when I came to you, brethren, came not in excellency of word, or wisdom, announcing to you the testimony of God. 1 Cor. 2:1
- For I did not judge it well to know anything among you save Jesus Christ, and *him* crucified. 1 Cor. 2:2
- But we speak wisdom among the perfect; but wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who come to nought. 1 Cor. 2:6
- but God has revealed to us by his Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God. 1 Cor. 2:10
- But *we* have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God, that we may know the things which have been freely given to us of God: 1 Cor. 2:12
- But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him; and he cannot know them because they are spiritually discerned; 1 Cor. 2:14
- And *I*, brethren, have not been able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly; as to babes in Christ. 1 Cor. 3:1
- I have given you milk to drink, not meat, for ye have not yet been able, nor indeed are ye yet able; 1 Cor. 3:2
- for ye are yet carnal. For whereas there are among you emulation and strife, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man? 1 Cor. 3:3
- Who then is Apollos, and who Paul? Ministering servants, through whom ye have believed, and as the Lord has given to each. 1 Cor. 3:5
- But the planter and the waterer are one; but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. 1 Cor. 3:8
- According to the grace of God which has been given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation, but another builds upon it. But let each see how he builds upon it. 1 Cor. 3:10
- Let no one deceive himself: if any one thinks himself to be wise among you in this world, let him become foolish, that he may be wise. 1 Cor. 3:18
- So that do not judge anything before the time, until the Lord shall come, who shall also both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and shall make manifest the counsels of hearts; and then shall each have his praise from God. 1 Cor. 4:5
- Now these things, brethren, I have transferred, in their application, to myself and Apollos, for your sakes, that ye may learn in us the lesson of not letting your thoughts go above what is written, that ye may not be puffed up one for such a one against another. 1 Cor. 4:6
- For who makes thee to differ? and what hast thou which thou hast not received? but if also thou hast received, why boastest thou as not receiving? 1 Cor. 4:7
- For I think that God has set us the apostles for the last, as appointed to death. For we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and men. 1 Cor. 4:9
- To the present hour we both hunger and thirst, and are in nakedness, and buffeted, and wander without a home, 1 Cor. 4:11
- Not as chiding do I write these things to you, but as my beloved children I admonish you. 1 Cor. 4:14
- For this reason I have sent to you Timotheus, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who shall put you in mind of my ways as they are in Christ, according as I teach everywhere in every assembly. 1 Cor. 4:17
- But some have been puffed up, as if I were not coming to you; 1 Cor. 4:18
- but I will come quickly to you, if the Lord will; and I will know, not the word of those that are puffed up, but the power. 1 Cor. 4:19
- What will ye? that I come to you with a rod; or in love, and in a spirit of meekness? 1 Cor. 4:21
- to deliver, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (ye and my spirit being gathered together, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ), him that has so wrought this: 1 Cor. 5:4
- to deliver him, I say, being such, to Satan for destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 1 Cor. 5:5
- I have written to you in the epistle not to mix with fornicators; 1 Cor. 5:9
- But now I have written to you, if any one called brother be fornicator, or avaricious, or idolater, or abusive, or a drunkard, or rapacious, not to mix with him; with such a one not even to eat. 1 Cor. 5:11
- For what have *I* to do with judging those outside also? *ye*, do not ye judge them that are within? 1 Cor. 5:12
- If then ye have judgments as to things of this life, set those to judge who are little esteemed in the assembly. 1 Cor. 6:4
- I speak to you to put you to shame. Thus there is not a wise person among you, not even one, who shall be able to decide between his brethren! 1 Cor. 6:5
- All things are lawful to me, but all things do not profit; all things are lawful to me, but *I* will not be brought under the power of any. 1 Cor. 6:12
- Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats; but God will bring to nothing both it and them: but the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. 1 Cor. 6:13
- Do ye not know that he that is joined to the harlot is one body? for the two, he says, shall be one flesh. 1 Cor. 6:16
- But he that is joined to the Lord is one Spirit. 1 Cor. 6:17
- But concerning the things of which ye have written to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman; 1 Cor. 7:1
- Let the husband render her due to the wife, and in like manner the wife to the husband. 1 Cor. 7:3
- Defraud not one another, unless, it may be, by consent for a time, that ye may devote yourselves to prayer, and again be together, that Satan tempt you not because of your incontinency. 1 Cor. 7:5
- But this I say, as consenting to, not as commanding it. 1 Cor. 7:6
- Now I wish all men to be even as myself: but every one has his own gift of God: one man thus, and another thus. 1 Cor. 7:7
- But I say to the unmarried and to the widows, It is good for them that they remain even as I. 1 Cor. 7:8
- But if they have not control over themselves, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn. 1 Cor. 7:9
- But to the married I enjoin, not *I*, but the Lord, Let not wife be separated from husband; 1 Cor. 7:10
- (but if also she shall have been separated, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to her husband;) and let not husband leave wife. 1 Cor. 7:11
- But as to the rest, *I* say, not the Lord, If any brother have an unbelieving wife, and *she* consent to dwell with him, let him not leave her. 1 Cor. 7:12
- And a woman who has an unbelieving husband, and he consents to dwell with her, let her not leave her husband. 1 Cor. 7:13
- However, as the Lord has divided to each, as God has called each, so let him walk; and thus I ordain in all the assemblies. 1 Cor. 7:17
- But concerning virgins, I have no commandment of the Lord; but I give my opinion, as having received mercy of the Lord to be faithful. 1 Cor. 7:25
- I think then that this is good, on account of the present necessity, that it is good for a man to remain so as he is. 1 Cor. 7:26
- Art thou bound to a wife? seek not to be loosed; art thou free from a wife? do not seek a wife. 1 Cor. 7:27
- But I wish you to be without care. The unmarried cares for the things of the Lord, how he shall please the Lord; 1 Cor. 7:32
- But if any one think that he behaves unseemly to his virginity, if he be beyond the flower of his age, and so it must be, let him do what he will, he does not sin: let them marry. 1 Cor. 7:36
- But he who stands firm in his heart, having no need, but has authority over his own will, and has judged this in his heart to keep his own virginity, he does well. 1 Cor. 7:37
- A wife is bound for whatever time her husband lives; but if the husband be fallen asleep, she is free to be married to whom she will, only in the Lord. 1 Cor. 7:39
- But she is happier if she so remain, according to my judgment; but I think that *I* also have God's Spirit. 1 Cor. 7:40
- But concerning things sacrificed to idols, we know, (for we all have knowledge: knowledge puffs up, but love edifies. 1 Cor. 8:1
- If any one think he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know it. 1 Cor. 8:2
- -- concerning then the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God save one. 1 Cor. 8:4
- yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom all things, and *we* for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and *we* by him. 1 Cor. 8:6
- But knowledge is not in all: but some, with conscience of the idol, until now eat as of a thing sacrificed to idols; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. 1 Cor. 8:7
- But meat does not commend us to God; neither if we should not eat do we come short; nor if we should eat have we an advantage. 1 Cor. 8:8
- But see lest anywise this your right to eat itself be a stumbling-block to the weak. 1 Cor. 8:9
- For if any one see thee, who hast knowledge, sitting at table in an idol-house, shall not his conscience, he being weak, be emboldened to eat the things sacrificed to the idol? 1 Cor. 8:10
- Wherefore if meat be a fall-trap to my brother, I will eat no flesh for ever, that I may not be a fall-trap to my brother. 1 Cor. 8:13
- If I am not an apostle to others, yet at any rate I am to you: for the seal of mine apostleship are *ye* in the Lord. 1 Cor. 9:2
- My defence to those who examine me is this: 1 Cor. 9:3
- Have we not a right to eat and to drink? 1 Cor. 9:4
- have we not a right to take round a sister as wife, as also the other apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas? 1 Cor. 9:5
- Or *I* alone and Barnabas, have we not a right not to work? 1 Cor. 9:6
- If we have sown to you spiritual things, is it a great thing if *we* shall reap your carnal things? 1 Cor. 9:11
- So also the Lord has ordained to those that announce the glad tidings to live of the glad tidings. 1 Cor. 9:14
- But *I* have used none of these things. Now I have not written these things that it should be thus in my case; for it were good for me rather to die than that any one should make vain my boast. 1 Cor. 9:15
- For if I announce the glad tidings, I have nothing to boast of; for a necessity is laid upon me; for it is woe to me if I should not announce the glad tidings. 1 Cor. 9:16
- What is the reward then that I have? That in announcing the glad tidings I make the glad tidings costless to others, so as not to have made use, as belonging to me, of my right in announcing the glad tidings. 1 Cor. 9:18
- For being free from all, I have made myself bondman to all, that I might gain the most possible. 1 Cor. 9:19
- And I became to the Jews as a Jew, in order that I might gain the Jews: to those under law, as under law, not being myself under law, in order that I might gain those under law: 1 Cor. 9:20
- to those without law, as without law, (not as without law to God, but as legitimately subject to Christ,) in order that I might gain those without law. 1 Cor. 9:21
- I became to the weak, as weak, in order that I might gain the weak. To all I have become all things, in order that at all events I might save some. 1 Cor. 9:22
- But I buffet my body, and lead it captive, lest after having preached to others I should be myself rejected. 1 Cor. 9:27
- Neither be ye idolaters, as some of them; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play. 1 Cor. 10:7
- Now all these things happened to them as types, and have been written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. 1 Cor. 10:11
- No temptation has taken you but such as is according to man's nature; and God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above what ye are able to bear, but will with the temptation make the issue also, so that ye should be able to bear it. 1 Cor. 10:13
- I speak as to intelligent persons: do *ye* judge what I say. 1 Cor. 10:15
- See Israel according to flesh: are not they who eat the sacrifices in communion with the altar? 1 Cor. 10:18
- What then do I say? that what is sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything? 1 Cor. 10:19
- But that what the nations sacrifice they sacrifice to demons, and not to God. Now I do not wish you to be in communion with demons. 1 Cor. 10:20
- Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he? 1 Cor. 10:22
- But if any one of the unbelievers invite you, and ye are minded to go, all that is set before you eat, making no inquiry for conscience sake. 1 Cor. 10:27
- But if any one say to you, This is offered to holy purposes, do not eat, for his sake that pointed it out, and conscience sake; 1 Cor. 10:28
- Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all things to God's glory. 1 Cor. 10:31
- Give no occasion to stumbling, whether to Jews, or Greeks, or the assembly of God. 1 Cor. 10:32
- But I wish you to know that the Christ is the head of every man, but woman's head is the man, and the Christ's head God. 1 Cor. 11:3
- Every man praying or prophesying, having anything on his head, puts his head to shame. 1 Cor. 11:4
- But every woman praying or prophesying with her head uncovered puts her own head to shame; for it is one and the same as a shaved woman. 1 Cor. 11:5
- For if a woman be not covered, let her hair also be cut off. But if it be shameful to a woman to have her hair cut off or to be shaved, let her be covered. 1 Cor. 11:6
- For man indeed ought not to have his head covered, being God's image and glory; but woman is man's glory. 1 Cor. 11:7
- Therefore ought the woman to have authority on her head, on account of the angels. 1 Cor. 11:10
- Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman should pray to God uncovered? 1 Cor. 11:13
- Does not even nature itself teach you, that man, if he have long hair, it is a dishonour to him? 1 Cor. 11:14
- But woman, if she have long hair, it is glory to her; for the long hair is given to her in lieu of a veil. 1 Cor. 11:15
- But if any one think to be contentious, *we* have no such custom, nor the assemblies of God. 1 Cor. 11:16
- But in prescribing to you on this which I now enter on, I do not praise, namely, that ye come together, not for the better, but for the worse. 1 Cor. 11:17
- For first, when ye come together in assembly, I hear there exist divisions among you, and I partly give credit to it. 1 Cor. 11:18
- When ye come therefore together into one place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper. 1 Cor. 11:20
- For each one in eating takes his *own* supper before others, and one is hungry and another drinks to excess. 1 Cor. 11:21
- Have ye not then houses for eating and drinking? or do ye despise the assembly of God, and put to shame them who have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you? In this point I do not praise. 1 Cor. 11:22
- For *I* received from the Lord, that which I also delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus, in the night in which he was delivered up, took bread, 1 Cor. 11:23
- For the eater and drinker eats and drinks judgment to himself, not distinguishing the body. 1 Cor. 11:29
- So that, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, wait for one another. 1 Cor. 11:33
- But concerning spiritual manifestations, brethren, I do not wish you to be ignorant. 1 Cor. 12:1
- Ye know that when ye were of the nations ye were led away to dumb idols, in whatever way ye might be led. 1 Cor. 12:2
- I give you therefore to know, that no one, speaking in the power of the Spirit of God, says, Curse on Jesus; and no one can say, Lord Jesus, unless in the power of the Holy Spirit. 1 Cor. 12:3
- But to each the manifestation of the Spirit is given for profit. 1 Cor. 12:7
- For to one, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit; 1 Cor. 12:8
- and to a different one faith, in the power of the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healing in the power of the same Spirit; 1 Cor. 12:9
- and to another operations of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; and to a different one kinds of tongues; and to another interpretation of tongues. 1 Cor. 12:10
- But all these things operates the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each in particular according as he pleases. 1 Cor. 12:11
- For also in the power of one Spirit *we* have all been baptised into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bondmen or free, and have all been given to drink of one Spirit. 1 Cor. 12:13
- The eye cannot say to the hand, I have not need of thee; or again, the head to the feet, I have not need of you. 1 Cor. 12:21
- But much rather, the members of the body which seem to be weaker are necessary; 1 Cor. 12:22
- and those parts of the body which we esteem to be the more void of honour, these we clothe with more abundant honour; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness; 1 Cor. 12:23
- but our comely parts have not need. But God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honour to the part that lacked; 1 Cor. 12:24
- And if I have prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 1 Cor. 13:2
- When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I reasoned as a child; when I became a man, I had done with what belonged to the child. 1 Cor. 13:11
- For we see now through a dim window obscurely, but then face to face; now I know partially, but then I shall know according as I also have been known. 1 Cor. 13:12
- For he that speaks with a tongue does not speak to men but to God: for no one hears; but in spirit he speaks mysteries. 1 Cor. 14:2
- But he that prophesies speaks to men in edification, and encouragement, and consolation. 1 Cor. 14:3
- And now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I shall speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in teaching? 1 Cor. 14:6
- Even lifeless things giving a sound, whether pipe or harp, if they give not distinction to the sounds, how shall it be known what is piped or harped? 1 Cor. 14:7
- Thus also *ye* with the tongue, unless ye give a distinct speech, how shall it be known what is spoken? for ye will be speaking to the air. 1 Cor. 14:9
- If therefore I do not know the power of the sound, I shall be to him that speaks a barbarian, and he that speaks a barbarian for me. 1 Cor. 14:11
- but in the assembly I desire to speak five words with my understanding, that I may instruct others also, rather than ten thousand words in a tongue. 1 Cor. 14:19
- It is written in the law, By people of other tongues, and by strange lips, will I speak to this people; and neither thus will they hear me, saith the Lord. 1 Cor. 14:21
- So that tongues are for a sign, not to those who believe, but to unbelievers; but prophecy, not to unbelievers, but to those who believe. 1 Cor. 14:22
- the secrets of his heart are manifested; and thus, falling upon his face, he will do homage to God, reporting that God is indeed amongst you. 1 Cor. 14:25
- What is it then, brethren? whenever ye come together, each of you has a psalm, has a teaching, has a tongue, has a revelation, has an interpretation. Let all things be done to edification. 1 Cor. 14:26
- but if there be no interpreter, let him be silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself and to God. 1 Cor. 14:28
- But if there be a revelation to another sitting there, let the first be silent. 1 Cor. 14:30
- And spirits of prophets are subject to prophets. 1 Cor. 14:32
- Let your women be silent in the assemblies, for it is not permitted to them to speak; but to be in subjection, as the law also says. 1 Cor. 14:34
- But if they wish to learn anything, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is a shame for a woman to speak in assembly. 1 Cor. 14:35
- Did the word of God go out from you, or did it come to you only? 1 Cor. 14:36
- If any one thinks himself to be a prophet or spiritual, let him recognise the things that I write to you, that it is the Lord's commandment. 1 Cor. 14:37
- So that, brethren, desire to prophesy, and do not forbid the speaking with tongues. 1 Cor. 14:39
- But I make known to you, brethren, the glad tidings which I announced to you, which also ye received, in which also ye stand, 1 Cor. 15:1
- by which also ye are saved, (if ye hold fast the word which I announced to you as the glad tidings,) unless indeed ye have believed in vain. 1 Cor. 15:2
- For I delivered to you, in the first place, what also I had received, that Christ died for our sins, according to the scriptures; 1 Cor. 15:3
- and that he was buried; and that he was raised the third day, according to the scriptures; 1 Cor. 15:4
- and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. 1 Cor. 15:5
- Then he appeared to above five hundred brethren at once, of whom the most remain until now, but some also have fallen asleep. 1 Cor. 15:6
- Then he appeared to James; then to all the apostles; 1 Cor. 15:7
- and last of all, as to an abortion, he appeared to *me* also. 1 Cor. 15:8
- For *I* am the least of the apostles, who am not fit to be called apostle, because I have persecuted the assembly of God. 1 Cor. 15:9
- Then the end, when he gives up the kingdom to him who is God and Father; when he shall have annulled all rule and all authority and power. 1 Cor. 15:24
- For he has put all things in subjection under his feet. But when he says that all things are put in subjection, it is evident that it is except him who put all things in subjection to him. 1 Cor. 15:27
- But when all things shall have been brought into subjection to him, then the Son also himself shall be placed in subjection to him who put all things in subjection to him, that God may be all in all.) 1 Cor. 15:28
- If, to speak after the manner of man, I have fought with beasts in Ephesus, what is the profit to me if those that are dead do not rise? let us eat and drink; for to-morrow we die. 1 Cor. 15:32
- Awake up righteously, and sin not; for some are ignorant of God: I speak to you as a matter of shame. 1 Cor. 15:34
- and God gives to it a body as he has pleased, and to each of the seeds its own body. 1 Cor. 15:38
- But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruptibility, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the word written: Death has been swallowed up in victory. 1 Cor. 15:54
- but thanks to God, who gives us the victory by our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Cor. 15:57
- And when I am arrived, whomsoever ye shall approve, these I will send with letters to carry your bounty to Jerusalem: 1 Cor. 16:3
- But I will come to you when I shall have gone through Macedonia; for I do go through Macedonia. 1 Cor. 16:5
- For I will not see you now in passing, for I hope to remain a certain time with you, if the Lord permit. 1 Cor. 16:7
- For a great door is opened to me and an effectual one, and the adversaries many. 1 Cor. 16:9
- Let not therefore any one despise him; but set him forward in peace, that he may come to me; for I expect him with the brethren. 1 Cor. 16:11
- Now concerning the brother Apollos, I begged him much that he would go to you with the brethren; but it was not at all his will to go now; but he will come when he shall have good opportunity. 1 Cor. 16:12
- But I beseech you, brethren, (ye know the house of Stephanas, that it is the first-fruits of Achaia, and they have devoted themselves to the saints for service,) 1 Cor. 16:15
- that *ye* should also be subject to such, and to every one joined in the work and labouring. 1 Cor. 16:16
- Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by God's will, and the brother Timotheus, to the assembly of God which is in Corinth, with all the saints who are in the whole of Achaia. 2 Cor. 1:1
- Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Cor. 1:2
- who encourages us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to encourage those who are in any tribulation whatever, through the encouragement with which we ourselves are encouraged of God. 2 Cor. 1:4
- For we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, as to our tribulation which happened to us in Asia, that we were excessively pressed beyond our power, so as to despair even of living. 2 Cor. 1:8
- For we do not write other things to you but what ye well know and recognise; and I hope that ye will recognise to the end, 2 Cor. 1:13
- And with this confidence I purposed to come to you previously, that ye might have a second favour; 2 Cor. 1:15
- and to pass through to Macedonia by you, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be set forward by you to Judaea. 2 Cor. 1:16
- Having therefore this purpose, did I then use lightness? Or what I purpose, do I purpose according to flesh, that there should be with me yea yea, and nay nay? 2 Cor. 1:17
- Now God is faithful, that our word to you is not yea and nay. 2 Cor. 1:18
- For whatever promises of God there are, in him is the yea, and in him the amen, for glory to God by us. 2 Cor. 1:20
- But I call God to witness upon my soul that to spare you I have not yet come to Corinth. 2 Cor. 1:23
- But I have judged this with myself, not to come back to you in grief. 2 Cor. 2:1
- And I have written this very letter to you, that coming I may not have grief from those from whom I ought to have joy; trusting in you all that my joy is that of you all. 2 Cor. 2:3
- For out of much tribulation and distress of heart I wrote to you, with many tears; not that ye may be grieved, but that ye may know the love which I have very abundantly towards you. 2 Cor. 2:4
- Sufficient to such a one is this rebuke which has been inflicted by the many; 2 Cor. 2:6
- Wherefore I exhort you to assure him of your love. 2 Cor. 2:8
- For to this end also I have written, that I might know, by putting you to the test, if as to everything ye are obedient. 2 Cor. 2:9
- But to whom ye forgive anything, *I* also; for I also, what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, it is for your sakes in the person of Christ; 2 Cor. 2:10
- Now when I came to Troas for the publication of the glad tidings of the Christ, a door also being opened to me in the Lord, 2 Cor. 2:12
- I had no rest in my spirit at not finding Titus my brother; but bidding them adieu, I came away to Macedonia. 2 Cor. 2:13
- But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in the Christ, and makes manifest the odour of his knowledge through us in every place. 2 Cor. 2:14
- For we are a sweet odour of Christ to God, in the saved and in those that perish: 2 Cor. 2:15
- to the one an odour from death unto death, but to the others an odour from life unto life; and who is sufficient for these things? 2 Cor. 2:16
- Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or do we need, as some, commendatory letters to you, or commendatory from you? 2 Cor. 3:1
- being manifested to be Christ's epistle ministered by us, written, not with ink, but the Spirit of the living God; not on stone tables, but on fleshy tables of the heart. 2 Cor. 3:3
- not that we are competent of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves, but our competency is of God; 2 Cor. 3:5
- But when it shall turn to the Lord, the veil is taken away.) 2 Cor. 3:16
- But *we* all, looking on the glory of the Lord, with unveiled face, are transformed according to the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Lord the Spirit. 2 Cor. 3:18
- But we have rejected the hidden things of shame, not walking in deceit, nor falsifying the word of God, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every conscience of men before God. 2 Cor. 4:2
- And having the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, I have believed, therefore have I spoken; *we* also believe, therefore also we speak; 2 Cor. 4:13
- For all things are for your sakes, that the grace abounding through the many may cause thanksgiving to abound to the glory of God. 2 Cor. 4:15
- For indeed in this we groan, ardently desiring to have put on our house which is from heaven; 2 Cor. 5:2
- For indeed we who are in the tabernacle groan, being burdened; while yet we do not wish to be unclothed, but clothed, that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. 2 Cor. 5:4
- Now he that has wrought us for this very thing is God, who also has given to us the earnest of the Spirit. 2 Cor. 5:5
- we are confident, I say, and pleased rather to be absent from the body and present with the Lord. 2 Cor. 5:8
- Wherefore also we are zealous, whether present or absent, to be agreeable to him. 2 Cor. 5:9
- For we must all be manifested before the judgment-seat of the Christ, that each may receive the things done in the body, according to those he has done, whether it be good or evil. 2 Cor. 5:10
- Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord we persuade men, but have been manifested to God, and I hope also that we have been manifested in your consciences. 2 Cor. 5:11
- For we do not again commend ourselves to you, but we are giving to you occasion of boast in our behalf, that ye may have such with those boasting in countenance, and not in heart. 2 Cor. 5:12
- For whether we are beside ourselves, it is to God; or are sober, it is for you. 2 Cor. 5:13
- and he died for all, that they who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who died for them and has been raised. 2 Cor. 5:15
- So that *we* henceforth know no one according to flesh; but if even we have known Christ according to flesh, yet now we know him thus no longer. 2 Cor. 5:16
- and all things are of the God who has reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and given to us the ministry of that reconciliation: 2 Cor. 5:18
- how that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their offences; and putting in us the word of that reconciliation. 2 Cor. 5:19
- We are ambassadors therefore for Christ, God as it were beseeching by us, we entreat for Christ, Be reconciled to God. 2 Cor. 5:20
- (for he says, I have listened to thee in an accepted time, and I have helped thee in a day of salvation: behold, now is the well-accepted time; behold, now the day of salvation:) 2 Cor. 6:2
- as unknown, and well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as disciplined, and not put to death; 2 Cor. 6:9
- Our mouth is opened to you, Corinthians, our heart is expanded. 2 Cor. 6:11
- but for an answering recompense, (I speak as to children,) let *your* heart also expand itself. 2 Cor. 6:13
- and what agreement of God's temple with idols? for *ye* are the living God's temple; according as God has said, I will dwell among them, and walk among them; and I will be their God, and they shall be to me a people. 2 Cor. 6:16
- and I will be to you for a Father, and ye shall be to me for sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. 2 Cor. 6:18
- I do not speak for condemnation, for I have already said that ye are in our hearts, to die together, and live together. 2 Cor. 7:3
- and not by his coming only, but also through the encouragement with which he was encouraged as to you; relating to us your ardent desire, your mourning, your zeal for me; so that I the more rejoiced. 2 Cor. 7:7
- Now I rejoice, not that ye have been grieved, but that ye have been grieved to repentance; for ye have been grieved according to God, that in nothing ye might be injured by us. 2 Cor. 7:9
- For grief according to God works repentance to salvation, never to be regretted; but the grief of the world works death. 2 Cor. 7:10
- For, behold, this same thing, your being grieved according to God, how much diligence it wrought in *you*, but what excusing of yourselves, but what indignation, but what fear, but what ardent desire, but what zeal, but what vengeance: in every way ye have proved yourselves to be pure in the matter. 2 Cor. 7:11
- So then, if also I wrote to you, it was not for the sake of him that injured, nor for the sake of him that was injured, but for the sake of our diligent zeal for you being manifested to you before God. 2 Cor. 7:12
- Because if I boasted to him anything about you, I have not been put to shame; but as we have spoken to you all things in truth, so also our boasting to Titus has been the truth; 2 Cor. 7:14
- and his affections are more abundantly towards you, calling to mind the obedience of you all, how with fear and trembling ye received him. 2 Cor. 7:15
- I rejoice that in everything I am confident as to you. 2 Cor. 7:16
- But we make known to you, brethren, the grace of God bestowed in the assemblies of Macedonia; 2 Cor. 8:1
- that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty has abounded to the riches of their free-hearted liberality. 2 Cor. 8:2
- For according to their power, I bear witness, and beyond their power, they were willing of their own accord, 2 Cor. 8:3
- begging of us with much entreaty to give effect to the grace and fellowship of the service which was to be rendered to the saints. 2 Cor. 8:4
- And not according as we hoped, but they gave themselves first to the Lord, and to us by God's will. 2 Cor. 8:5
- So that we begged Titus that, according as he had before begun, so he would also complete as to you this grace also; 2 Cor. 8:6
- but even as ye abound in every way, in faith, and word, and knowledge, and all diligence, and in love from you to us, that ye may abound in this grace also. 2 Cor. 8:7
- And I give my opinion in this, for this is profitable for you who began before, not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago. 2 Cor. 8:10
- But now also complete the doing of it; so that as there was the readiness to be willing, so also to complete out of what ye have. 2 Cor. 8:11
- For if the readiness be there, a man is accepted according to what he may have, not according to what he has not. 2 Cor. 8:12
- But thanks be to God, who gives the same diligent zeal for you in the heart of Titus. 2 Cor. 8:16
- For he received indeed the entreaty, but, being full of zeal, he went of his own accord to you; 2 Cor. 8:17
- and not only so, but is also chosen by the assemblies as our fellow-traveller with this grace, ministered by us to the glory of the Lord himself, and a witness of our readiness; 2 Cor. 8:19
- And we have sent with them our brother whom we have often proved to be of diligent zeal in many things, and now more diligently zealous through the great confidence he has as to you. 2 Cor. 8:22
- Shew therefore to them, before the assemblies, the proof of your love, and of our boasting about you. 2 Cor. 8:24
- For concerning the ministration which is for the saints, it is superfluous my writing to you. 2 Cor. 9:1
- For I know your readiness, which I boast of as respects you to Macedonians, that Achaia is prepared since a year ago, and the zeal reported of you has stimulated the mass of the brethren. 2 Cor. 9:2
- lest haply, if Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, *we*, that we say not *ye*, may be put to shame in this confidence. 2 Cor. 9:4
- I thought it necessary therefore to beg the brethren that they would come to you, and complete beforehand your fore-announced blessing, that this may be ready thus as blessing, and not as got out of you. 2 Cor. 9:5
- But God is able to make every gracious gift abound towards you, that, having in every way always all-sufficiency, ye may abound to every good work: 2 Cor. 9:8
- according as it is written, He has scattered abroad, he has given to the poor, his righteousness remains for ever. 2 Cor. 9:9
- Now he that supplies seed to the sower and bread for eating shall supply and make abundant your sowing, and increase the fruits of your righteousness: 2 Cor. 9:10
- enriched in every way unto all free-hearted liberality, which works through us thanksgiving to God. 2 Cor. 9:11
- Because the ministration of this service is not only filling up the measure of what is lacking to the saints, but also abounding by many thanksgivings to God; 2 Cor. 9:12
- they glorifying God through the proof of this ministration, by reason of your subjection, by profession, to the glad tidings of the Christ, and your free-hearted liberality in communicating towards them and towards all; 2 Cor. 9:13
- Thanks be to God for his unspeakable free gift. 2 Cor. 9:15
- But I myself, Paul, entreat you by the meekness and gentleness of the Christ, who, as to appearance, when present am mean among you, but absent am bold towards you; 2 Cor. 10:1
- but I beseech that present I may not be bold with the confidence with which I think to be daring towards some who think of us as walking according to flesh. 2 Cor. 10:2
- For walking in flesh, we do not war according to flesh. 2 Cor. 10:3
- For the arms of our warfare are not fleshly, but powerful according to God to the overthrow of strongholds; 2 Cor. 10:4
- and having in readiness to avenge all disobedience when your obedience shall have been fulfilled. 2 Cor. 10:6
- For and if I should boast even somewhat more abundantly of our authority, which the Lord has given to us for building up and not for your overthrowing, I shall not be put to shame; 2 Cor. 10:8
- Now *we* will not boast out of measure, but according to the measure of the rule which the God of measure has apportioned to us, to reach to you also. 2 Cor. 10:13
- For we do not, as not reaching to you, overstretch ourselves, (for we have come to you also in the glad tidings of the Christ;) 2 Cor. 10:14
- not boasting out of measure in other people's labours, but having hope, your faith increasing, to be enlarged amongst you, according to our rule, yet more abundantly 2 Cor. 10:15
- to announce the glad tidings to that which is beyond you, not to be boasting in another's rule of things made ready to hand. 2 Cor. 10:16
- For I am jealous as to you with a jealousy which is of God; for I have espoused you unto one man, to present you a chaste virgin to Christ. 2 Cor. 11:2
- But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craft, so your thoughts should be corrupted from simplicity as to the Christ. 2 Cor. 11:3
- But if I am a simple person in speech, yet not in knowledge, but in everything making the truth manifest in all things to you. 2 Cor. 11:6
- Have I committed sin, abasing myself in order that *ye* might be exalted, because I gratuitously announced to you the glad tidings of God? 2 Cor. 11:7
- And being present with you and lacking, I did not lazily burden any one, (for the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied what I lacked,) and in everything I kept myself from being a burden to you, and will keep myself. 2 Cor. 11:9
- The truth of Christ is in me that this boasting shall not be stopped as to me in the regions of Achaia. 2 Cor. 11:10
- It is no great thing therefore if his ministers also transform themselves as ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. 2 Cor. 11:15
- Again I say, Let not any one think me to be a fool; but if otherwise, receive me then even as a fool, that *I* also may boast myself some little. 2 Cor. 11:16
- What I speak I do not speak according to the Lord, but as in folly, in this confidence of boasting. 2 Cor. 11:17
- Since many boast according to flesh, *I* also will boast. 2 Cor. 11:18
- I speak as to dishonour, as though *we* had been weak; but wherein any one is daring, (I speak in folly,) *I* also am daring. 2 Cor. 11:21
- Are they ministers of Christ? (I speak as being beside myself) *I* above measure so; in labours exceedingly abundant, in stripes to excess, in prisons exceedingly abundant, in deaths oft. 2 Cor. 11:23
- If it is needful to boast, I will boast in the things which concern my infirmity. 2 Cor. 11:30
- In Damascus the ethnarch of Aretas the king kept the city of the Damascenes shut up, wishing to take me; 2 Cor. 11:32
- Well, it is not of profit to me to boast, for I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. 2 Cor. 12:1
- I know a man in Christ, fourteen years ago, (whether in the body I know not, or out of the body I know not, God knows;) such a one caught up to the third heaven. 2 Cor. 12:2
- that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable things said which it is not allowed to man to utter. 2 Cor. 12:4
- For if I shall desire to boast, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth; but I forbear, lest any one should think as to me above what he sees me to be, or whatever he may hear of me. 2 Cor. 12:6
- And that I might not be exalted by the exceeding greatness of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn for the flesh, a messenger of Satan that he might buffet me, that I might not be exalted. 2 Cor. 12:7
- And he said to me, My grace suffices thee; for my power is perfected in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather boast in my weaknesses, that the power of the Christ may dwell upon me. 2 Cor. 12:9
- I have become a fool; *ye* have compelled me; for *I* ought to have been commended by you; for I have been nothing behind those who were in surpassing degree apostles, if also I am nothing. 2 Cor. 12:11
- For in what is it that ye have been inferior to the other assemblies, unless that I myself have not been in laziness a charge upon you? Forgive me this injury. 2 Cor. 12:13
- Behold, this third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be in laziness a charge; for I do not seek yours, but you; for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children. 2 Cor. 12:14
- Did I make gain of you by any of those whom I have sent to you? 2 Cor. 12:17
- Ye have long been supposing that we excuse ourselves to you: we speak before God in Christ; and all things, beloved, for your building up. 2 Cor. 12:19
- lest my God should humble me as to you when I come again, and that I shall grieve over many of those who have sinned before, and have not repented as to the uncleanness and fornication and licentiousness which they have practised. 2 Cor. 12:21
- This third time I am coming to you. In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every matter be established. 2 Cor. 13:1
- I have declared beforehand, and I say beforehand as present the second time, and now absent, to those that have sinned before, and to all the rest, that if I come again I will not spare. 2 Cor. 13:2
- But we pray to God that ye may do nothing evil; not that *we* may appear approved, but that *ye* may do what is right, and *we* be as reprobates. 2 Cor. 13:7
- On this account I write these things being absent, that being present I may not use severity according to the authority which the Lord has given me for building up, and not for overthrowing. 2 Cor. 13:10
- and all the brethren with me, to the assemblies of Galatia. Gal. 1:2
- Grace to you, and peace, from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, Gal. 1:3
- who gave himself for our sins, so that he should deliver us out of the present evil world, according to the will of our God and Father; Gal. 1:4
- to whom be glory to the ages of ages. Amen. Gal. 1:5
- I wonder that ye thus quickly change, from him that called you in Christ's grace, to a different gospel, Gal. 1:6
- which is not another one; but there are some that trouble you, and desire to pervert the glad tidings of the Christ. Gal. 1:7
- But if even *we* or an angel out of heaven announce as glad tidings to you anything besides what we have announced as glad tidings to you, let him be accursed. Gal. 1:8
- As we have said before, now also again I say, If any one announce to you as glad tidings anything besides what ye have received, let him be accursed. Gal. 1:9
- For do I now seek to satisfy men or God? or do I seek to please men? If I were yet pleasing men, I were not Christ's bondman. Gal. 1:10
- But I let you know, brethren, as to the glad tidings which were announced by me, that they are not according to man. Gal. 1:11
- was pleased to reveal his Son in me, that I may announce him as glad tidings among the nations, immediately I took not counsel with flesh and blood, Gal. 1:16
- nor went I up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and again returned to Damascus. Gal. 1:17
- Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to make acquaintance with Peter, and I remained with him fifteen days; Gal. 1:18
- Now what I write to you, behold, before God, I do not lie. Gal. 1:20
- But I was unknown personally to the assemblies of Judaea which are in Christ; Gal. 1:22
- Then after a lapse of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me; Gal. 2:1
- and I went up according to revelation, and I laid before them the glad tidings which I preach among the nations, but privately to those conspicuous among them, lest in any way I run or had run in vain; Gal. 2:2
- (but neither was Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, compelled to be circumcised;) Gal. 2:3
- and it was on account of the false brethren brought in surreptitiously, who came in surreptitiously to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage; Gal. 2:4
- to whom we yielded in subjection not even for an hour, that the truth of the glad tidings might remain with you. Gal. 2:5
- But from those who were conspicuous as being somewhat -- whatsoever they were, it makes no difference to me: God does not accept man's person; for to me those who were conspicuous communicated nothing; Gal. 2:6
- but, on the contrary, seeing that the glad tidings of the uncircumcision were confided to me, even as to Peter that of the circumcision, Gal. 2:7
- and recognising the grace given to me, James and Cephas and John, who were conspicuous as being pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that *we* should go to the nations, and *they* to the circumcision; Gal. 2:9
- only that we should remember the poor, which same thing also I was diligent to do. Gal. 2:10
- But when Peter came to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be condemned: Gal. 2:11
- But when I saw that they do not walk straightforwardly, according to the truth of the glad tidings, I said to Peter before all, If *thou*, being a Jew, livest as the nations and not as the Jews, how dost thou compel the nations to Judaize? Gal. 2:14
- Now if in seeking to be justified in Christ we also have been found sinners, then is Christ minister of sin? Far be the thought. Gal. 2:17
- For *I*, through law, have died to law, that I may live to God. Gal. 2:19
- O senseless Galatians, who has bewitched you; to whom, as before your very eyes, Jesus Christ has been portrayed, crucified among you? Gal. 3:1
- This only I wish to learn of you, Have ye received the Spirit on the principle of works of law, or of the report of faith? Gal. 3:2
- Are ye so senseless? having begun in Spirit, are ye going to be made perfect in flesh? Gal. 3:3
- He therefore who ministers to you the Spirit, and works miracles among you, is it on the principle of works of law, or of the report of faith? Gal. 3:5
- Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness. Gal. 3:6
- and the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the nations on the principle of faith, announced beforehand the glad tidings to Abraham: In thee all the nations shall be blessed. Gal. 3:8
- For as many as are on the principle of works of law are under curse. For it is written, Cursed is every one who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them; Gal. 3:10
- that the blessing of Abraham might come to the nations in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Gal. 3:14
- Brethren, (I speak according to man,) even man's confirmed covenant no one sets aside, or adds other dispositions to. Gal. 3:15
- But to Abraham were the promises addressed, and to his seed: he does not say, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed; which is Christ. Gal. 3:16
- Now I say this, A covenant confirmed beforehand by God, the law, which took place four hundred and thirty years after, does not annul, so as to make the promise of no effect. Gal. 3:17
- For if the inheritance be on the principle of law, it is no longer on the principle of promise; but God gave it in grace to Abraham by promise. Gal. 3:18
- Why then the law? It was added for the sake of transgressions, until the seed came to whom the promise was made, ordained through angels in the hand of a mediator. Gal. 3:19
- Is then the law against the promises of God? Far be the thought. For if a law had been given able to quicken, then indeed righteousness were on the principle of law; Gal. 3:21
- but the scripture has shut up all things under sin, that the promise, on the principle of faith of Jesus Christ, should be given to those that believe. Gal. 3:22
- But before faith came, we were guarded under law, shut up to faith which was about to be revealed. Gal. 3:23
- So that the law has been our tutor up to Christ, that we might be justified on the principle of faith. Gal. 3:24
- but if *ye* are of Christ, then ye are Abraham's seed, heirs according to promise. Gal. 3:29
- But then indeed, not knowing God, ye were in bondage to those who by nature are not gods; Gal. 4:8
- but now, knowing God, but rather being known by God, how do ye turn again to the weak and beggarly principles to which ye desire to be again anew in bondage? Gal. 4:9
- I am afraid of you, lest indeed I have laboured in vain as to you. Gal. 4:11
- But ye know that in weakness of the flesh I announced the glad tidings to you at the first; Gal. 4:13
- What then was your blessedness? for I bear you witness that, if possible, plucking out your own eyes ye would have given them to me. Gal. 4:15
- So I have become your enemy in speaking the truth to you? Gal. 4:16
- They are not rightly zealous after you, but desire to shut you out from us, that ye may be zealous after them. Gal. 4:17
- But it is right to be zealous at all times in what is right, and not only when I am present with you -- Gal. 4:18
- and I should wish to be present with you now, and change my voice, for I am perplexed as to you. Gal. 4:20
- Tell me, ye who are desirous of being under law, do ye not listen to the law? Gal. 4:21
- But he that was of the maid servant was born according to flesh, and he that was of the free woman through the promise. Gal. 4:23
- Which things have an allegorical sense; for these are two covenants: one from mount Sinai, gendering to bondage, which is Hagar. Gal. 4:24
- For Hagar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which is now, for she is in bondage with her children; Gal. 4:25
- But as then he that was born according to flesh persecuted him that was born according to Spirit, so also it is now. Gal. 4:29
- Behold, I, Paul, say to you, that if ye are circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing. Gal. 5:2
- And I witness again to every man who is circumcised, that he is debtor to do the whole law. Gal. 5:3
- *I* have confidence as to you in the Lord, that ye will have no other mind; and he that is troubling you shall bear the guilt of it, whosoever he may be. Gal. 5:10
- For *ye* have been called to liberty, brethren; only do not turn liberty into an opportunity to the flesh, but by love serve one another. Gal. 5:13
- For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these things are opposed one to the other, that ye should not do those things which ye desire; Gal. 5:17
- envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revels, and things like these; as to which I tell you beforehand, even as I also have said before, that they who do such things shall not inherit God's kingdom. Gal. 5:21
- For if any man reputes himself to be something, being nothing, he deceives himself; Gal. 6:3
- but let each prove his own work, and then he will have his boast in what belongs to himself alone, and not in what belongs to another. Gal. 6:4
- Let him that is taught in the word communicate to him that teaches in all good things. Gal. 6:6
- For he that sows to his own flesh, shall reap corruption from the flesh; but he that sows to the Spirit, from the Spirit shall reap eternal life: Gal. 6:8
- See how long a letter I have written to you with my own hand. Gal. 6:11
- As many as desire to have a fair appearance in the flesh, these compel you to be circumcised, only that they may not be persecuted because of the cross of Christ. Gal. 6:12
- For neither do they that are circumcised themselves keep the law; but they wish you to be circumcised, that they may boast in your flesh. Gal. 6:13
- But far be it from me to boast save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world. Gal. 6:14
- Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by God's will, to the saints and faithful in Christ Jesus who are at Ephesus. Eph. 1:1
- Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. Eph. 1:2
- having marked us out beforehand for adoption through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, Eph. 1:5
- to the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he has taken us into favour in the Beloved: Eph. 1:6
- in whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of offences, according to the riches of his grace; Eph. 1:7
- which he has caused to abound towards us in all wisdom and intelligence, Eph. 1:8
- having made known to us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in himself Eph. 1:9
- for the administration of the fulness of times; to head up all things in the Christ, the things in the heavens and the things upon the earth; in him, Eph. 1:10
- in whom we have also obtained an inheritance, being marked out beforehand according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his own will, Eph. 1:11
- that we should be to the praise of his glory who have pre-trusted in the Christ: Eph. 1:12
- who is the earnest of our inheritance to the redemption of the acquired possession to the praise of his glory. Eph. 1:14
- and what the surpassing greatness of his power towards us who believe, according to the working of the might of his strength, Eph. 1:19
- above every principality, and authority, and power, and dominion, and every name named, not only in this age, but also in that to come; Eph. 1:21
- and has put all things under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things to the assembly, Eph. 1:22
- in which ye once walked according to the age of this world, according to the ruler of the authority of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience: Eph. 2:2
- among whom *we* also all once had our conversation in the lusts of our flesh, doing what the flesh and the thoughts willed to do, and were children, by nature, of wrath, even as the rest: Eph. 2:3
- that ye were at that time without Christ, aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: Eph. 2:12
- and might reconcile both in one body to God by the cross, having by it slain the enmity; Eph. 2:16
- and, coming, he has preached the glad tidings of peace to you who were afar off, and the glad tidings of peace to those who were nigh. Eph. 2:17
- For through him we have both access by one Spirit to the Father. Eph. 2:18
- in whom all the building fitted together increases to a holy temple in the Lord; Eph. 2:21
- (if indeed ye have heard of the administration of the grace of God which has been given to me towards you, Eph. 3:2
- that by revelation the mystery has been made known to me, (according as I have written before briefly, Eph. 3:3
- which in other generations has not been made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets in the power of the Spirit, Eph. 3:5
- of which I am become minister according to the gift of the grace of God given to me, according to the working of his power. Eph. 3:7
- To me, less than the least of all saints, has this grace been given, to announce among the nations the glad tidings of the unsearchable riches of the Christ, Eph. 3:8
- and to enlighten all with the knowledge of what is the administration of the mystery hidden throughout the ages in God, who has created all things, Eph. 3:9
- in order that now to the principalities and authorities in the heavenlies might be made known through the assembly the all-various wisdom of God, Eph. 3:10
- according to the purpose of the ages, which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord, Eph. 3:11
- Wherefore I beseech you not to faint through my tribulations for you, which is your glory. Eph. 3:13
- For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Eph. 3:14
- in order that he may give you according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power by his Spirit in the inner man; Eph. 3:16
- in order that ye may be fully able to apprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height; Eph. 3:18
- and to know the love of the Christ which surpasses knowledge; that ye may be filled even to all the fulness of God. Eph. 3:19
- But to him that is able to do far exceedingly above all which we ask or think, according to the power which works in us, Eph. 3:20
- to him be glory in the assembly in Christ Jesus unto all generations of the age of ages. Amen). Eph. 3:21
- *I*, the prisoner in the Lord, exhort you therefore to walk worthy of the calling wherewith ye have been called, Eph. 4:1
- using diligence to keep the unity of the Spirit in the uniting bond of peace. Eph. 4:3
- But to each one of us has been given grace according to the measure of the gift of the Christ. Eph. 4:7
- Wherefore he says, Having ascended up on high, he has led captivity captive, and has given gifts to men. Eph. 4:8
- for the perfecting of the saints; with a view to the work of the ministry, with a view to the edifying of the body of Christ; Eph. 4:12
- in order that we may be no longer babes, tossed and carried about by every wind of *that* teaching which is in the sleight of men, in unprincipled cunning with a view to systematized error; Eph. 4:14
- but, holding the truth in love, we may grow up to him in all things, who is the head, the Christ: Eph. 4:15
- from whom the whole body, fitted together, and connected by every joint of supply, according to the working in its measure of each one part, works for itself the increase of the body to its self-building up in love. Eph. 4:16
- who having cast off all feeling, have given themselves up to lasciviousness, to work all uncleanness with greedy unsatisfied lust. Eph. 4:19
- namely your having put off according to the former conversation the old man which corrupts itself according to the deceitful lusts; Eph. 4:22
- and your having put on the new man, which according to God is created in truthful righteousness and holiness. Eph. 4:24
- Let the stealer steal no more, but rather let him toil, working what is honest with his hands, that he may have to distribute to him that has need. Eph. 4:28
- Let no corrupt word go out of your mouth, but if there be any good one for needful edification, that it may give grace to those that hear it. Eph. 4:29
- and be to one another kind, compassionate, forgiving one another, so as God also in Christ has forgiven you. Eph. 4:32
- and walk in love, even as the Christ loved us, and delivered himself up for us, an offering and sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling savour. Eph. 5:2
- proving what is agreeable to the Lord; Eph. 5:10
- for the things that are done by them in secret it is shameful even to say. Eph. 5:12
- speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and chanting with your heart to the Lord; Eph. 5:19
- giving thanks at all times for all things to him who is God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Eph. 5:20
- submitting yourselves to one another in the fear of Christ. Eph. 5:21
- Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands, as to the Lord, Eph. 5:22
- But even as the assembly is subjected to the Christ, so also wives to their own husbands in everything. Eph. 5:24
- that *he* might present the assembly to himself glorious, having no spot, or wrinkle, or any of such things; but that it might be holy and blameless. Eph. 5:27
- So ought men also to love their own wives as their own bodies: he that loves his own wife loves himself. Eph. 5:28
- Because of this a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be united to his wife, and the two shall be one flesh. Eph. 5:31
- This mystery is great, but *I* speak as to Christ, and as to the assembly. Eph. 5:32
- But *ye* also, every one of you, let each so love his own wife as himself; but as to the wife I speak that she may fear the husband. Eph. 5:33
- And ye fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and admonition of the Lord. Eph. 6:4
- Bondmen, obey masters according to flesh, with fear and trembling, in simplicity of your heart as to the Christ; Eph. 6:5
- serving with good will as to the Lord, and not to men; Eph. 6:7
- Put on the panoply of God, that ye may be able to stand against the artifices of the devil: Eph. 6:11
- For this reason take to you the panoply of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having accomplished all things, to stand. Eph. 6:13
- besides all these, having taken the shield of faith with which ye will be able to quench all the inflamed darts of the wicked one. Eph. 6:16
- and for me in order that utterance may be given to me in the opening of my mouth to make known with boldness the mystery of the glad tidings, Eph. 6:19
- for which I am an ambassador bound with a chain, that I may be bold in it as I ought to speak. Eph. 6:20
- But in order that *ye* also may know what concerns me, how I am getting on, Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make all things known to you; Eph. 6:21
- whom I have sent to you for this very thing, that ye may know of our affairs and that he may encourage your hearts. Eph. 6:22
- Peace to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Eph. 6:23
- Paul and Timotheus, bondmen of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus who are in Philippi, with the overseers and ministers; Phil. 1:1
- grace to you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Phil. 1:2
- as it is righteous for me to think this as to you all, because ye have *me* in your hearts, and that both in my bonds and in the defence and confirmation of the glad tidings ye are all participators in my grace. Phil. 1:7
- being complete as regards the fruit of righteousness, which is by Jesus Christ, to God's glory and praise. Phil. 1:11
- But I would have you know, brethren, that the circumstances in which I am have turned out rather to the furtherance of the glad tidings, Phil. 1:12
- so that my bonds have become manifest as being in Christ in all the praetorium and to all others; Phil. 1:13
- and that the most of the brethren, trusting in the Lord through my bonds, dare more abundantly to speak the word of God fearlessly. Phil. 1:14
- but those out of contention, announce the Christ, not purely, supposing to arouse tribulation for my bonds. Phil. 1:17
- for I know that this shall turn out for me to salvation, through your supplication and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ; Phil. 1:19
- according to my earnest expectation and hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but in all boldness, as always, now also Christ shall be magnified in my body whether by life or by death. Phil. 1:20
- For for me to live is Christ, and to die gain; Phil. 1:21
- but if to live in flesh is my lot, this is for me worth the while: and what I shall choose I cannot tell. Phil. 1:22
- and not frightened in anything by the opposers, which is to them a demonstration of destruction, but of your salvation, and that from God; Phil. 1:28
- because to you has been given, as regards Christ, not only the believing on him but the suffering for him also, Phil. 1:29
- who, subsisting in the form of God, did not esteem it an object of rapine to be on an equality with God; Phil. 2:6
- and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to God the Father's glory. Phil. 2:11
- for it is God who works in you both the willing and the working according to his good pleasure. Phil. 2:13
- holding forth the word of life, so as to be a boast for me in Christ's day, that I have not run in vain nor laboured in vain. Phil. 2:16
- But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus to you shortly, that *I* also may be refreshed, knowing how ye get on. Phil. 2:19
- Him therefore I hope to send immediately, as soon as I shall see how it goes with me: Phil. 2:23
- but I have thought it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother and fellow-workman and fellow-soldier, but your messenger and minister to my need, Phil. 2:25
- for he was also sick close to death, but God had mercy on him, and not indeed on him alone, but also on me, that I might not have sorrow upon sorrow. Phil. 2:27
- because for the sake of the work he drew near even to death, venturing his life that he might fill up what lacked in your ministration toward me. Phil. 2:30
- For the rest, my brethren, rejoice in the Lord: to write the same things to you, to me is not irksome, and for you safe. Phil. 3:1
- See to dogs, see to evil workmen, see to the concision. Phil. 3:2
- Though *I* have my trust even in flesh; if any other think to trust in flesh, *I* rather: Phil. 3:4
- as to circumcision, I received it the eighth day; of the race of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, Hebrew of Hebrews; as to the law, a Pharisee; Phil. 3:5
- as to zeal, persecuting the assembly; as to righteousness which is in the law, found blameless; Phil. 3:6
- but what things were gain to me these I counted, on account of Christ, loss. Phil. 3:7
- But surely I count also all things to be loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, on account of whom I have suffered the loss of all, and count them to be filth, that I may gain Christ; Phil. 3:8
- to know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death, Phil. 3:10
- Brethren, *I* do not count to have got possession myself; but one thing -- forgetting the things behind, and stretching out to the things before, Phil. 3:13
- As many therefore as are perfect, let us be thus minded; and if ye are any otherwise minded, this also God shall reveal to you. Phil. 3:15
- who shall transform our body of humiliation into conformity to his body of glory, according to the working of the power which he has even to subdue all things to himself. Phil. 3:21
- I exhort Euodia, and exhort Syntyche, to be of the same mind in the Lord; Phil. 4:2
- Be careful about nothing; but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; Phil. 4:6
- Not that I speak as regards privation, for as to me *I* have learnt in those circumstances in which I am, to be satisfied in myself. Phil. 4:11
- I know both how to be abased and I know how to abound. In everything and in all things I am initiated both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer privation. Phil. 4:12
- And know also *ye*, O Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I came out of Macedonia, no assembly communicated anything to me in the way of giving and receiving save *ye* alone; Phil. 4:15
- for also in Thessalonica once and even twice ye sent to me for my need. Phil. 4:16
- Not that I seek gift, but I seek fruit abounding to your account. Phil. 4:17
- But I have all things in full supply and abound; I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things sent from you, an odour of sweet savour, an acceptable sacrifice, agreeable to God. Phil. 4:18
- But my God shall abundantly supply all your need according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. Phil. 4:19
- But to our God and Father be glory to the ages of ages. Amen. Phil. 4:20
- to the holy and faithful brethren in Christ which are in Colosse. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ. Col. 1:2
- We give thanks to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ continually when praying for you, Col. 1:3
- which are come to you, as they are in all the world, and are bearing fruit and growing, even as also among you, from the day ye heard them and knew indeed the grace of God, in truth: Col. 1:6
- who has also manifested to us your love in the Spirit. Col. 1:8
- For this reason *we* also, from the day we heard of your faith and love, do not cease praying and asking for you, to the end that ye may be filled with the full knowledge of his will, in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, Col. 1:9
- so as to walk worthily of the Lord unto all well-pleasing, bearing fruit in every good work, and growing by the true knowledge of God; Col. 1:10
- strengthened with all power according to the might of his glory unto all endurance and longsuffering with joy; Col. 1:11
- giving thanks to the Father, who has made us fit for sharing the portion of the saints in light, Col. 1:12
- for in him all the fulness of the Godhead was pleased to dwell, Col. 1:19
- and by him to reconcile all things to itself, having made peace by the blood of his cross -- by him, whether the things on the earth or the things in the heavens. Col. 1:20
- in the body of his flesh through death; to present you holy and unblamable and irreproachable before it, Col. 1:22
- of which *I* became minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given me towards you to complete the word of God, Col. 1:25
- the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but has now been made manifest to his saints; Col. 1:26
- to whom God would make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the nations, which is Christ in you the hope of glory: Col. 1:27
- whom *we* announce, admonishing every man, and teaching every man, in all wisdom, to the end that we may present every man perfect in Christ. Col. 1:28
- Whereunto also I toil, combating according to his working, which works in me in power. Col. 1:29
- to the end that their hearts may be encouraged, being united together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the full knowledge of the mystery of God; Col. 2:2
- And I say this to the end that no one may delude you by persuasive speech. Col. 2:4
- See that there be no one who shall lead *you* away as a prey through philosophy and vain deceit, according to the teaching of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ. Col. 2:8
- having effaced the handwriting in ordinances which stood out against us, which was contrary to us, he has taken it also out of the way, having nailed it to the cross; Col. 2:14
- which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. Col. 2:17
- and not holding fast the head, from whom all the body, ministered to and united together by the joints and bands, increases with the increase of God. Col. 2:19
- If ye have died with Christ from the elements of the world, why as if alive in the world do ye subject yourselves to ordinances? Col. 2:20
- (things which are all for destruction in the using of them:) according to the injunctions and teachings of men, Col. 2:22
- (which have indeed an appearance of wisdom in voluntary worship, and humility, and harsh treatment of the body, not in a certain honour,) to the satisfaction of the flesh. Col. 2:23
- Put to death therefore your members which are upon the earth, fornication, uncleanness, vile passions, evil lust, and unbridled desire, which is idolatry. Col. 3:5
- Do not lie to one another, having put off the old man with his deeds, Col. 3:9
- and having put on the new, renewed into full knowledge according to the image of him that has created him; Col. 3:10
- And to all these add love, which is the bond of perfectness. Col. 3:14
- And let the peace of Christ preside in your hearts, to which also ye have been called in one body, and be thankful. Col. 3:15
- Let the word of the Christ dwell in you richly, in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another, in psalms, hymns, spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to God. Col. 3:16
- And everything, whatever ye may do in word or in deed, do all things in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father by him. Col. 3:17
- Wives, be subject to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord. Col. 3:18
- Fathers, do not vex your children, to the end that they be not disheartened. Col. 3:21
- Bondmen, obey in all things your masters according to flesh; not with eye-services, as men-pleasers, but in simplicity of heart, fearing the Lord. Col. 3:22
- Whatsoever ye do, labour at it heartily, as doing it to the Lord, and not to men; Col. 3:23
- Masters, give to bondmen what is just and fair, knowing that *ye* also have a Master in the heavens. Col. 4:1
- praying at the same time for us also, that God may open to us a door of the word to speak the mystery of Christ, on account of which also I am bound, Col. 4:3
- to the end that I may make it manifest as I ought to speak. Col. 4:4
- Let your word be always with grace, seasoned with salt, so as to know how ye ought to answer each one. Col. 4:6
- Tychicus, the beloved brother and faithful minister and fellow-bondman in the Lord, will make known to you all that concerns me; Col. 4:7
- whom I have sent to you for this very purpose, that he might know your state, and that he might encourage your hearts: Col. 4:8
- with Onesimus, the faithful and beloved brother, who is one of you. They shall make known to you everything here. Col. 4:9
- Aristarchus my fellow-captive salutes you, and Mark, Barnabas's cousin, concerning whom ye have received orders, (if he come to you, receive him,) Col. 4:10
- and Jesus called Justus, who are of the circumcision. These are the only fellow-workers for the kingdom of God who have been a consolation to me. Col. 4:11
- Epaphras, who is one of you, the bondman of Christ Jesus, salutes you, always combating earnestly for you in prayers, to the end that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God. Col. 4:12
- And say to Archippus, Take heed to the ministry which thou hast received in the Lord, to the end that thou fulfil it. Col. 4:17
- Paul and Silvanus and Timotheus to the assembly of Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Grace to you and peace. 1 Th. 1:1
- We give thanks to God always for you all, making mention of you at our prayers, 1 Th. 1:2
- so that ye became models to all that believe in Macedonia and in Achaia: 1 Th. 1:7
- for the word of the Lord sounded out from you, not only in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place your faith which is towards God has gone abroad, so that we have no need to say anything; 1 Th. 1:8
- for they themselves relate concerning us what entering in we had to you, and how ye turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God, 1 Th. 1:9
- and to await his Son from the heavens, whom he raised from among the dead, Jesus, our deliverer from the coming wrath. 1 Th. 1:10
- For ye know yourselves, brethren, our entering in which we had to you, that it has not been in vain; 1 Th. 2:1
- but, having suffered before and been insulted, even as ye know, in Philippi, we were bold in our God to speak unto you the glad tidings of God with much earnest striving. 1 Th. 2:2
- but even as we have been approved of God to have the glad tidings entrusted to us, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who proves our hearts. 1 Th. 2:4
- Thus, yearning over you, we had found our delight in having imparted to you not only the glad tidings of God, but our own lives also, because ye had become beloved of us. 1 Th. 2:8
- For ye remember, brethren, our labour and toil: working night and day, not to be chargeable to any one of you, we have preached to you the glad tidings of God. 1 Th. 2:9
- as ye know how, as a father his own children, we used to exhort each one of you, and comfort and testify, 1 Th. 2:11
- that ye should walk worthy of God, who calls you to his own kingdom and glory. 1 Th. 2:12
- And for this cause we also give thanks to God unceasingly that, having received the word of the report of God by us, ye accepted, not men's word, but, even as it is truly, God's word, which also works in you who believe. 1 Th. 2:13
- forbidding us to speak to the nations that they may be saved, that they may fill up their sins always: but wrath has come upon them to the uttermost. 1 Th. 2:16
- But we, brethren, having been bereaved of you and separated for a little moment in person, not in heart, have used more abundant diligence to see your face with much desire; 1 Th. 2:17
- wherefore we have desired to come to you, even I Paul, both once and twice, and Satan has hindered us. 1 Th. 2:18
- Wherefore, being no longer able to refrain ourselves, we thought good to be left alone in Athens, 1 Th. 3:1
- and sent Timotheus, our brother and fellow-workman under God in the glad tidings of Christ, to confirm you and encourage you concerning your faith, 1 Th. 3:2
- for also, when we were with you, we told you beforehand we are about to be in tribulation, even as also it came to pass, and ye know.) 1 Th. 3:4
- For this reason *I* also, no longer able to refrain myself, sent to know your faith, lest perhaps the tempter had tempted you and our labour should be come to nothing. 1 Th. 3:5
- But Timotheus having just come to us from you, and brought to us the glad tidings of your faith and love, and that ye have always good remembrance of us, desiring much to see us, even as we also you; 1 Th. 3:6
- For what thanksgiving can we render to God for you, for all the joy wherewith we rejoice on account of you before our God, 1 Th. 3:9
- night and day beseeching exceedingly to the end that we may see your face, and perfect what is lacking in your faith? 1 Th. 3:10
- But our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you. 1 Th. 3:11
- But you, may the Lord make to exceed and abound in love toward one another, and toward all, even as we also towards you, 1 Th. 3:12
- in order to the confirming of your hearts unblamable in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints. 1 Th. 3:13
- For the rest, then, brethren, we beg you and exhort you in the Lord Jesus, even as ye have received from us how ye ought to walk and please God, even as ye also do walk, that ye would abound still more. 1 Th. 4:1
- that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honour, 1 Th. 4:4
- For God has not called us to uncleanness, but in sanctification. 1 Th. 4:7
- He therefore that in this disregards his brother, disregards, not man, but God, who has given also his Holy Spirit to you. 1 Th. 4:8
- Now concerning brotherly love ye have no need that we should write to you, for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another. 1 Th. 4:9
- For also ye do this towards all the brethren in the whole of Macedonia; but we exhort you, brethren, to abound still more, 1 Th. 4:10
- and to seek earnestly to be quiet and mind your own affairs, and work with your own hands, even as we charged you, 1 Th. 4:11
- But we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them that are fallen asleep, to the end that ye be not grieved even as also the rest who have no hope. 1 Th. 4:13
- (For this we say to you in the word of the Lord, that *we*, the living, who remain to the coming of the Lord, are in no way to anticipate those who have fallen asleep; 1 Th. 4:15
- then *we*, the living who remain, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air; and thus we shall be always with the Lord. 1 Th. 4:17
- But concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that ye should be written to, 1 Th. 5:1
- But we beg you, brethren, to know those who labour among you, and take the lead among you in the Lord, and admonish you, 1 Th. 5:12
- and to regard them exceedingly in love on account of their work. Be in peace among yourselves. 1 Th. 5:13
- See that no one render to any evil for evil, but pursue always what is good towards one another and towards all; 1 Th. 5:15
- I adjure you by the Lord that the letter be read to all the holy brethren. 1 Th. 5:27
- Paul and Silvanus and Timotheus to the assembly of Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Th. 1:1
- Grace to you, and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Th. 1:2
- We ought to thank God always for you, brethren, even as it is meet, because your faith increases exceedingly, and the love of each one of you all towards one another abounds; 2 Th. 1:3
- a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, to the end that ye should be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for the sake of which ye also suffer; 2 Th. 1:5
- if at least it is a righteous thing with God to render tribulation to those that trouble you, 2 Th. 1:6
- and to you that are troubled repose with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with the angels of his power, 2 Th. 1:7
- when he shall have come to be glorified in his saints, and wondered at in all that have believed, (for our testimony to you has been believed,) in that day. 2 Th. 1:10
- To which end we also pray always for you, that our God may count you worthy of the calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness and the work of faith with power, 2 Th. 1:11
- so that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you and *ye* in him, according to the grace of our God, and of the Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Th. 1:12
- Now we beg you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together to him, 2 Th. 2:1
- Do ye not remember that, being yet with you, I said these things to you? 2 Th. 2:5
- whose coming is according to the working of Satan in all power and signs and wonders of falsehood, 2 Th. 2:9
- and in all deceit of unrighteousness to them that perish, because they have not received the love of the truth that they might be saved. 2 Th. 2:10
- And for this reason God sends to them a working of error, that they should believe what is false, 2 Th. 2:11
- But we ought to give thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, that God has chosen you from the beginning to salvation in sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth: 2 Th. 2:13
- whereto he has called you by our glad tidings, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Th. 2:14
- But we trust in the Lord as to you, that the things which we enjoin, ye both do and will do. 2 Th. 3:4
- Now we enjoin you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw from every brother walking disorderly and not according to the instruction which he received from us. 2 Th. 3:6
- For ye know yourselves how ye ought to imitate us, because we have not walked disorderly among you; 2 Th. 3:7
- nor have we eaten bread from any one without cost; but in toil and hardship working night and day not to be chargeable to any one of you: 2 Th. 3:8
- not that we have not the right, but that we might give ourselves as an example to you, in order to your imitating us. 2 Th. 3:9
- For also when we were with you we enjoined you this, that if any man does not like to work, neither let him eat. 2 Th. 3:10
- Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the command of God our Saviour, and of Christ Jesus our hope, 1 Tim. 1:1
- to Timotheus, my true child in faith: grace, mercy, peace, from God our Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. 1 Tim. 1:2
- Even as I begged thee to remain in Ephesus, when I was going to Macedonia, that thou mightest enjoin some not to teach other doctrines, 1 Tim. 1:3
- nor to turn their minds to fables and interminable genealogies, which bring questionings rather than further God's dispensation, which is in faith. 1 Tim. 1:4
- which things some having missed, have turned aside to vain discourse, 1 Tim. 1:6
- desiring to be law-teachers, not understanding either what they say or concerning what they so strenuously affirm. 1 Tim. 1:7
- knowing this, that law has not its application to a righteous person, but to the lawless and insubordinate, to the impious and sinful, to the unholy and profane, to smiters of fathers and smiters of mothers; to murderers, 1 Tim. 1:9
- fornicators, sodomites, kidnappers, liars, perjurers; and if any other thing is opposed to sound teaching, 1 Tim. 1:10
- according to the glad tidings of the glory of the blessed God, with which *I* have been entrusted. 1 Tim. 1:11
- And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me power, that he has counted me faithful, appointing to ministry him 1 Tim. 1:12
- Faithful is the word, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom *I* am the first. 1 Tim. 1:15
- But for this reason mercy was shewn me, that in me, the first, Jesus Christ might display the whole long-suffering, for a delineation of those about to believe on him to life eternal. 1 Tim. 1:16
- Now to the King of the ages, the incorruptible, invisible, only God, honour and glory to the ages of ages. Amen. 1 Tim. 1:17
- This charge, my child Timotheus, I commit to thee, according to the prophecies as to thee preceding, in order that thou mightest war by them the good warfare, 1 Tim. 1:18
- maintaining faith and a good conscience; which last some, having put away, have made shipwreck as to faith; 1 Tim. 1:19
- of whom is Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have delivered to Satan, that they may be taught by discipline not to blaspheme. 1 Tim. 1:20
- who desires that all men should be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. 1 Tim. 2:4
- who gave himself a ransom for all, the testimony to be rendered in its own times; 1 Tim. 2:6
- to which *I* have been appointed a herald and apostle, (I speak the truth, I do not lie,) a teacher of the nations in faith and truth. 1 Tim. 2:7
- but I do not suffer a woman to teach nor to exercise authority over man, but to be in quietness; 1 Tim. 2:12
- The word is faithful: if any one aspires to exercise oversight, he desires a good work. 1 Tim. 3:1
- The overseer then must be irreproachable, husband of one wife, sober, discreet, decorous, hospitable, apt to teach; 1 Tim. 3:2
- not given to excesses from wine, not a striker, but mild, not addicted to contention, not fond of money, 1 Tim. 3:3
- (but if one does not know how to conduct his own house, how shall he take care of the assembly of God?) 1 Tim. 3:5
- Ministers, in like manner, grave, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not seeking gain by base means, 1 Tim. 3:8
- These things I write to thee, hoping to come to thee more quickly; 1 Tim. 3:14
- but if I delay, in order that thou mayest know how one ought to conduct oneself in God's house, which is the assembly of the living God, the pillar and base of the truth. 1 Tim. 3:15
- And confessedly the mystery of piety is great. God has been manifested in flesh, has been justified in the Spirit, has appeared to angels, has been preached among the nations, has been believed on in the world, has been received up in glory. 1 Tim. 3:16
- But the Spirit speaks expressly, that in latter times some shall apostatise from the faith, giving their mind to deceiving spirits and teachings of demons 1 Tim. 4:1
- speaking lies in hypocrisy, cauterised as to their own conscience, 1 Tim. 4:2
- forbidding to marry, bidding to abstain from meats, which God has created for receiving with thanksgiving for them who are faithful and know the truth. 1 Tim. 4:3
- For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, being received with thanksgiving; 1 Tim. 4:4
- for bodily exercise is profitable for a little, but piety is profitable for everything, having promise of life, of the present one, and of that to come. 1 Tim. 4:8
- Till I come, give thyself to reading, to exhortation, to teaching. 1 Tim. 4:13
- Be not negligent of the gift that is in thee, which has been given to thee through prophecy, with imposition of the hands of the elderhood. 1 Tim. 4:14
- Occupy thyself with these things; be wholly in them, that thy progress may be manifest to all. 1 Tim. 4:15
- Give heed to thyself and to the teaching; continue in them; for, doing this, thou shalt save both thyself and those that hear thee. 1 Tim. 4:16
- but if any widow have children or descendants, let them learn first to be pious as regards their own house, and to render a return on their side to their parents; for this is acceptable in the sight of God. 1 Tim. 5:4
- borne witness to in good works, if she have brought up children, if she have exercised hospitality, if she have washed saints' feet, if she have imparted relief to the distressed, if she have diligently followed every good work. 1 Tim. 5:10
- But younger widows decline; for when they grow wanton against Christ, they desire to marry, 1 Tim. 5:11
- And, at the same time, they learn also to be idle, going about to people's houses; and not only idle, but also gossipers and meddlers, speaking things not becoming. 1 Tim. 5:13
- I will therefore that the younger marry, bear children, rule the house, give no occasion to the adversary in respect of reproach. 1 Tim. 5:14
- If any believing man or woman have widows, let them impart relief to them, and let not the assembly be charged, that it may impart relief to those that are widows indeed. 1 Tim. 5:16
- Of some men the sins are manifest beforehand, going before to judgment, and some also they follow after. 1 Tim. 5:24
- If any one teach differently, and do not accede to sound words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the teaching which is according to piety, 1 Tim. 6:3
- constant quarrellings of men corrupted in mind and destitute of the truth, holding gain to be the end of piety. 1 Tim. 6:5
- But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many unwise and hurtful lusts, which plunge men into destruction and ruin. 1 Tim. 6:9
- Strive earnestly in the good conflict of faith. Lay hold of eternal life, to which thou hast been called, and hast confessed the good confession before many witnesses. 1 Tim. 6:12
- who only has immortality, dwelling in unapproachable light; whom no man has seen, nor is able to see; to whom be honour and eternal might. Amen. 1 Tim. 6:16
- Enjoin on those rich in the present age not to be high-minded, nor to trust on the uncertainty of riches; but in the God who affords us all things richly for our enjoyment; 1 Tim. 6:17
- to do good, to be rich in good works, to be liberal in distributing, disposed to communicate of their substance, 1 Tim. 6:18
- Paul, apostle of Jesus Christ by God's will, according to promise of life, the life which is in Christ Jesus, 2 Tim. 1:1
- to Timotheus, my beloved child: grace, mercy, peace, from God the Father, and Christ Jesus our Lord. 2 Tim. 1:2
- I am thankful to God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, how unceasingly I have the remembrance of thee in my supplications night and day, 2 Tim. 1:3
- earnestly desiring to see thee, remembering thy tears, that I may be filled with joy; 2 Tim. 1:4
- calling to mind the unfeigned faith which has been in thee, which dwelt first in thy grandmother Lois, and in thy mother Eunice, and I am persuaded that in thee also. 2 Tim. 1:5
- For which cause I put thee in mind to rekindle the gift of God which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 2 Tim. 1:6
- Be not therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner; but suffer evil along with the glad tidings, according to the power of God; 2 Tim. 1:8
- who has saved us, and has called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given to us in Christ Jesus before the ages of time, 2 Tim. 1:9
- but has been made manifest now by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who has annulled death, and brought to light life and incorruptibility by the glad tidings; 2 Tim. 1:10
- to which *I* have been appointed a herald and apostle and teacher of the nations. 2 Tim. 1:11
- For which cause also I suffer these things; but I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep for that day the deposit I have entrusted to him. 2 Tim. 1:12
- The Lord grant mercy to the house of Onesiphorus, for he has often refreshed me, and has not been ashamed of my chain; 2 Tim. 1:16
- the Lord grant to him to find mercy from the Lord in that day -- and how much service he rendered in Ephesus *thou* knowest best. 2 Tim. 1:18
- And the things thou hast heard of me in the presence of many witnesses, these entrust to faithful men, such as shall be competent to instruct others also. 2 Tim. 2:2
- Remember Jesus Christ raised from among the dead, of the seed of David, according to my glad tidings, 2 Tim. 2:8
- Of these things put in remembrance, testifying earnestly before the Lord not to have disputes of words, profitable for nothing, to the subversion of the hearers. 2 Tim. 2:14
- Strive diligently to present thyself approved to God, a workman that has not to be ashamed, cutting in a straight line the word of truth. 2 Tim. 2:15
- But profane, vain babblings shun, for they will advance to greater impiety, 2 Tim. 2:16
- men who as to the truth have gone astray, saying that the resurrection has taken place already; and overthrow the faith of some. 2 Tim. 2:18
- But in a great house there are not only gold and silver vessels, but also wooden and earthen; and some to honour, and some to dishonour. 2 Tim. 2:20
- If therefore one shall have purified himself from these, in separating himself from them, he shall be a vessel to honour, sanctified, serviceable to the Master, prepared for every good work. 2 Tim. 2:21
- And a bondman of the Lord ought not to contend, but be gentle towards all; apt to teach; forbearing; 2 Tim. 2:24
- in meekness setting right those who oppose, if God perhaps may sometime give them repentance to acknowledgment of the truth, 2 Tim. 2:25
- for men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, evil speakers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, profane, 2 Tim. 3:2
- always learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 2 Tim. 3:7
- But they shall not advance farther; for their folly shall be completely manifest to all, as that of those also became. 2 Tim. 3:9
- persecutions, sufferings: what sufferings happened to me in Antioch, in Iconium, in Lystra; what persecutions I endured; and the Lord delivered me out of all. 2 Tim. 3:11
- And all indeed who desire to live piously in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. 2 Tim. 3:12
- and that from a child thou hast known the sacred letters, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation, through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 2 Tim. 3:15
- that the man of God may be complete, fully fitted to every good work. 2 Tim. 3:17
- I testify before God and Christ Jesus, who is about to judge living and dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom, 2 Tim. 4:1
- For the time shall be when they will not bear sound teaching; but according to their own lusts will heap up to themselves teachers, having an itching ear; 2 Tim. 4:3
- and they will turn away their ear from the truth, and will have turned aside to fables. 2 Tim. 4:4
- Henceforth the crown of righteousness is laid up for me, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will render to me in that day; but not only to me, but also to all who love his appearing. 2 Tim. 4:8
- Use diligence to come to me quickly; 2 Tim. 4:9
- for Demas has forsaken me, having loved the present age, and is gone to Thessalonica; Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia. 2 Tim. 4:10
- Luke alone is with me. Take Mark, and bring him with thyself, for he is serviceable to me for ministry. 2 Tim. 4:11
- But Tychicus I have sent to Ephesus. 2 Tim. 4:12
- Alexander the smith did many evil things against me. The Lord will render to him according to his works. 2 Tim. 4:14
- At my first defence no man stood with me, but all deserted me. May it not be imputed to them. 2 Tim. 4:16
- The Lord shall deliver me from every wicked work, and shall preserve me for his heavenly kingdom; to whom be glory for the ages of ages. Amen. 2 Tim. 4:18
- Use diligence to come before winter. Eubulus salutes thee, and Pudens, and Linus, and Claudia, and the brethren all. 2 Tim. 4:21
- Paul, bondman of God, and apostle of Jesus Christ according to the faith of God's elect, and knowledge of the truth which is according to piety; Tit. 1:1
- but has manifested in its own due season his word, in the proclamation with which *I* have been entrusted, according to the commandment of our Saviour God; Tit. 1:3
- to Titus, my own child according to the faith common to us: Grace and peace from God the Father, and Christ Jesus our Saviour. Tit. 1:4
- For this cause I left thee in Crete, that thou mightest go on to set right what remained unordered, and establish elders in each city, as *I* had ordered thee: Tit. 1:5
- clinging to the faithful word according to the doctrine taught, that he may be able both to encourage with sound teaching and refute gainsayers. Tit. 1:9
- who must have their mouths stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which ought not to be taught for the sake of base gain. Tit. 1:11
- not turning their minds to Jewish fables and commandments of men turning away from the truth. Tit. 1:14
- All things are pure to the pure; but to the defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. Tit. 1:15
- They profess to know God, but in works deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and found worthless as to every good work. Tit. 1:16
- that the elder women in like manner be in deportment as becoming those who have to say to sacred things, not slanderers, not enslaved to much wine, teachers of what is right; Tit. 2:3
- that they may admonish the young women to be attached to their husbands, to be attached to their children, Tit. 2:4
- discreet, chaste, diligent in home work, good, subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be evil spoken of. Tit. 2:5
- The younger men in like manner exhort to be discreet: Tit. 2:6
- a sound word, not to be condemned; that he who is opposed may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say about us: Tit. 2:8
- bondmen to be subject to their own masters, to make themselves acceptable in everything; not gainsaying; Tit. 2:9
- who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all lawlessness, and purify to himself a peculiar people, zealous for good works. Tit. 2:14
- Put them in mind to be subject to rulers, to authorities, to be obedient to rule, to be ready to do every good work, Tit. 3:1
- to speak evil of no one, not to be contentious, to be mild, shewing all meekness towards all men. Tit. 3:2
- But when the kindness and love to man of our Saviour God appeared, Tit. 3:4
- not on the principle of works which have been done in righteousness which *we* had done, but according to his own mercy he saved us through the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, Tit. 3:5
- that, having been justified by *his* grace, we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life. Tit. 3:7
- The word is faithful, and I desire that thou insist strenuously on these things, that they who have believed God may take care to pay diligent attention to good works. These things are good and profitable to men. Tit. 3:8
- When I shall send Artemas to thee, or Tychicus, use diligence to come to me to Nicopolis; for I have decided to winter there. Tit. 3:12
- Zenas the lawyer and Apollos set forward diligently on their way, that nothing may be lacking to them; Tit. 3:13
- and let ours also learn to apply themselves to good works for necessary wants, that they may not be unfruitful. Tit. 3:14
- Paul, prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timotheus the brother, to Philemon the beloved and our fellow-workman, Ph'm 1:1
- and to the sister Apphia and to Archippus our fellow-soldier, and to the assembly which is in thine house. Ph'm 1:2
- Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. Ph'm 1:3
- Wherefore having much boldness in Christ to enjoin thee what is fitting, Ph'm 1:8
- once unserviceable to thee, but now serviceable to thee and to me: Ph'm 1:11
- whom I have sent back to thee: but do *thou* receive him, that is, *my* bowels: Ph'm 1:12
- whom *I* was desirous of keeping with myself, that for thee he might minister to me in the bonds of the glad tidings; Ph'm 1:13
- but I have wished to do nothing without thy mind, that thy good might not be as of necessity but of willingness: Ph'm 1:14
- not any longer as a bondman, but above a bondman, a beloved brother, specially to me, and how much rather to thee, both in the flesh and in the Lord? Ph'm 1:16
- If therefore thou holdest me to be a partner with thee, receive him as me; Ph'm 1:17
- but if he have wronged thee anything or owe anything to thee, put this to my account. Ph'm 1:18
- *I* Paul have written it with mine own hand; *I* will repay it: that I say not to thee that thou owest even thine own self also to me. Ph'm 1:19
- Being confident of thine obedience, I have written to thee, knowing that thou wilt do even more than I say. Ph'm 1:21
- But withal prepare me also a lodging; for I hope that I shall be granted to you through your prayers. Ph'm 1:22
- God having spoken in many parts and in many ways formerly to the fathers in the prophets, Heb. 1:1
- at the end of these days has spoken to us in the person of the Son, whom he has established heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; Heb. 1:2
- For to which of the angels said he ever, *Thou* art my Son: this day have *I* begotten thee? and again, *I* will be to him for father, and *he* shall be to me for son? Heb. 1:5
- And as to the angels he says, Who makes his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire; Heb. 1:7
- but as to the Son, Thy throne, O God, is to the age of the age, and a sceptre of uprightness is the sceptre of thy kingdom. Heb. 1:8
- But as to which of the angels said he ever, Sit at my right hand until I put thine enemies as footstool of thy feet? Heb. 1:13
- For this reason we should give heed more abundantly to the things we have heard, lest in any way we should slip away. Heb. 2:1
- how shall *we* escape if we have been negligent of so great salvation, which, having had its commencement in being spoken of by the Lord, has been confirmed to us by those who have heard; Heb. 2:3
- God bearing, besides, witness with them to it, both by signs and wonders, and various acts of power, and distributions of the Holy Spirit, according to his will? Heb. 2:4
- For he has not subjected to angels the habitable world which is to come, of which we speak; Heb. 2:5
- Thou hast made him some little inferior to the angels; thou hast crowned him with glory and honour, and hast set him over the works of thy hands; Heb. 2:7
- thou hast subjected all things under his feet. For in subjecting all things to him, he has left nothing unsubject to him. But now we see not yet all things subjected to *him*, Heb. 2:8
- but we see Jesus, who was made some little inferior to angels on account of the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; so that by the grace of God he should taste death for every thing. Heb. 2:9
- For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make perfect the leader of their salvation through sufferings. Heb. 2:10
- For both he that sanctifies and those sanctified are all of one; for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren, Heb. 2:11
- saying, I will declare thy name to my brethren; in the midst of the assembly will I sing thy praises. Heb. 2:12
- and might set free all those who through fear of death through the whole of their life were subject to bondage. Heb. 2:15
- Wherefore it behoved him in all things to be made like to his brethren, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things relating to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people; Heb. 2:17
- for, in that himself has suffered, being tempted, he is able to help those that are being tempted. Heb. 2:18
- who is faithful to him that has constituted him, as Moses also in all his house. Heb. 3:2
- And Moses indeed was faithful in all his house, as a ministering servant, for a testimony of the things to be spoken after; Heb. 3:5
- but Christ, as Son over his house, whose house are *we*, if indeed we hold fast the boldness and the boast of hope firm to the end. Heb. 3:6
- For we are become companions of the Christ if indeed we hold the beginning of the assurance firm to the end; Heb. 3:14
- And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to those who had not hearkened to the word? Heb. 3:18
- Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you might seem to have failed of it. Heb. 4:1
- For indeed we have had glad tidings presented to us, even as they also; but the word of the report did not profit *them*, not being mixed with faith in those who heard. Heb. 4:2
- Seeing therefore it remains that some enter into it, and those who first received the glad tidings did not enter in on account of not hearkening to the word, Heb. 4:6
- There remains then a sabbatism to the people of God. Heb. 4:9
- Let us therefore use diligence to enter into that rest, that no one may fall after the same example of not hearkening to the word. Heb. 4:11
- For the word of God is living and operative, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and penetrating to the division of soul and spirit, both of joints and marrow, and a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Heb. 4:12
- And there is not a creature unapparent before him; but all things are naked and laid bare to his eyes, with whom we have to do. Heb. 4:13
- For we have not a high priest not able to sympathise with our infirmities, but tempted in all things in like manner, sin apart. Heb. 4:15
- Let us approach therefore with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and find grace for seasonable help. Heb. 4:16
- For every high priest taken from amongst men is established for men in things relating to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins; Heb. 5:1
- being able to exercise forbearance towards the ignorant and erring, since he himself also is clothed with infirmity; Heb. 5:2
- and, on account of this infirmity, he ought, even as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins. Heb. 5:3
- And no one takes the honour to himself but as called by God, even as Aaron also. Heb. 5:4
- Thus the Christ also has not glorified himself to be made a high priest; but he who had said to him, *Thou* art my Son, *I* have to-day begotten thee. Heb. 5:5
- Even as also in another place he says, *Thou* art a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedec. Heb. 5:6
- Who in the days of his flesh, having offered up both supplications and entreaties to him who was able to save him out of death, with strong crying and tears; (and having been heard because of his piety;) Heb. 5:7
- and having been perfected, became to all them that obey him, author of eternal salvation; Heb. 5:9
- addressed by God as high priest according to the order of Melchisedec. Heb. 5:10
- Concerning whom we have much to say, and hard to be interpreted in speaking of it, since ye are become dull in hearing. Heb. 5:11
- For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have again need that one should teach you what are the elements of the beginning of the oracles of God, and are become such as have need of milk, and not of solid food. Heb. 5:12
- but solid food belongs to full-grown men, who, on account of habit, have their senses exercised for distinguishing both good and evil. Heb. 5:14
- Wherefore, leaving the word of the beginning of the Christ, let us go on to what belongs to full growth, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and faith in God, Heb. 6:1
- For it is impossible to renew again to repentance those once enlightened, and who have tasted of the heavenly gift, and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, Heb. 6:4
- and have tasted the good word of God, and the works of power of the age to come, Heb. 6:5
- but bringing forth thorns and briars, it is found worthless and nigh to a curse, whose end is to be burned. Heb. 6:8
- For God is not unrighteous to forget your work, and the love which ye have shewn to his name, having ministered to the saints, and still ministering. Heb. 6:10
- But we desire earnestly that each one of you shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end; Heb. 6:11
- For God, having promised to Abraham, since he had no greater to swear by, swore by himself, Heb. 6:13
- For men indeed swear by a greater, and with them the oath is a term to all dispute, as making matters sure. Heb. 6:16
- Wherein God, willing to shew more abundantly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of his purpose, intervened by an oath, Heb. 6:17
- that by two unchangeable things, in which it was impossible that God should lie, we might have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold on the hope set before us, Heb. 6:18
- where Jesus is entered as forerunner for us, become for ever a high priest according to the order of Melchisedec. Heb. 6:20
- to whom Abraham gave also the tenth portion of all; first being interpreted King of righteousness, and then also King of Salem, which is King of peace; Heb. 7:2
- without father, without mother, without genealogy; having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but assimilated to the Son of God, abides a priest continually. Heb. 7:3
- Now consider how great this personage was, to whom even the patriarch Abraham gave a tenth out of the spoils. Heb. 7:4
- And they indeed from among the sons of Levi, who receive the priesthood, have commandment to take tithes from the people according to the law, that is from their brethren, though these are come out of the loins of Abraham: Heb. 7:5
- and, so to speak, through Abraham, Levi also, who received tithes, has been made to pay tithes. Heb. 7:9
- If indeed then perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, for the people had their law given to them in connexion with *it*, what need was there still that a different priest should arise according to the order of Melchisedec, and not be named after the order of Aaron? Heb. 7:11
- For he, of whom these things are said, belongs to a different tribe, of which no one has ever been attached to the service of the altar. Heb. 7:13
- For it is clear that our Lord has sprung out of Juda, as to which tribe Moses spake nothing as to priests. Heb. 7:14
- And it is yet more abundantly evident, since a different priest arises according to the similitude of Melchisedec, Heb. 7:15
- who has been constituted not according to law of fleshly commandment, but according to power of indissoluble life. Heb. 7:16
- For it is borne witness, *Thou* art a priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedec. Heb. 7:17
- (for the law perfected nothing,) and the introduction of a better hope by which we draw nigh to God. Heb. 7:19
- (for they are become priests without the swearing of an oath, but he with the swearing of an oath, by him who said, as to him, The Lord has sworn, and will not repent of it, *Thou* art priest for ever according to the order of Melchisedec;) Heb. 7:21
- Whence also he is able to save completely those who approach by him to God, always living to intercede for them. Heb. 7:25
- who has not day by day need, as the high priests, first to offer up sacrifices for his own sins, then for those of the people; for this he did once for all in having offered up himself. Heb. 7:27
- If then indeed he were upon earth, he would not even be a priest, there being those who offer the gifts according to the law, Heb. 8:4
- (who serve the representation and shadow of heavenly things, according as Moses was oracularly told when about to make the tabernacle; for See, saith He, that thou make all things according to the pattern which has been shewn to thee in the mountain.) Heb. 8:5
- For finding fault, he says to them, Behold, days come, saith the Lord, and I will consummate a new covenant as regards the house of Israel, and as regards the house of Juda; Heb. 8:8
- not according to the covenant which I made to their fathers in the day of my taking their hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because *they* did not continue in my covenant, and *I* did not regard them, saith the Lord. Heb. 8:9
- Because this is the covenant that I will covenant to the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord: Giving my laws into their mind, I will write them also upon their hearts; and I will be to them for God, and *they* shall be to me for people. Heb. 8:10
- Because I will be merciful to their unrighteousnesses, and their sins and their lawlessnesses I will never remember any more. Heb. 8:12
- and above over it the cherubim of glory shadowing the mercy-seat; concerning which it is not now the time to speak in detail. Heb. 9:5
- the which is an image for the present time, according to which both gifts and sacrifices, unable to perfect as to conscience him that worshipped, are offered, Heb. 9:9
- But Christ being come high priest of the good things to come, by the better and more perfect tabernacle not made with hand, (that is, not of this creation,) Heb. 9:11
- how much rather shall the blood of the Christ, who by the eternal Spirit offered himself spotless to God, purify your conscience from dead works to worship the living God? Heb. 9:14
- For every commandment having been spoken according to the law by Moses to all the people; having taken the blood of calves and goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, he sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, Heb. 9:19
- saying, This is the blood of the covenant which God has enjoined to you. Heb. 9:20
- and almost all things are purified with blood according to the law, and without blood-shedding there is no remission. Heb. 9:22
- For the Christ is not entered into holy places made with hand, figures of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear before the face of God for us: Heb. 9:24
- since he had then been obliged often to suffer from the foundation of the world. But now once in the consummation of the ages he has been manifested for the putting away of sin by his sacrifice. Heb. 9:26
- And forasmuch as it is the portion of men once to die, and after this judgment; Heb. 9:27
- thus the Christ also, having been once offered to bear the sins of many, shall appear to those that look for him the second time without sin for salvation. Heb. 9:28
- But in these there is a calling to mind of sins yearly. Heb. 10:3
- Then I said, Lo, I come (in the roll of the book it is written of me) to do, O God, thy will. Heb. 10:7
- Above, saying Sacrifices and offerings and burnt-offerings and sacrifices for sin thou willedst not, neither tookest pleasure in (which are offered according to the law); Heb. 10:8
- then he said, Lo, I come to do thy will. He takes away the first that he may establish the second; Heb. 10:9
- let us approach with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, sprinkled as to our hearts from a wicked conscience, and washed as to our body with pure water. Heb. 10:22
- and let us consider one another for provoking to love and good works; Heb. 10:24
- but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and heat of fire about to devour the adversaries. Heb. 10:27
- For we know him that said, To me belongs vengeance; *I* will recompense, saith the Lord: and again, The Lord shall judge his people. Heb. 10:30
- But call to mind the earlier days in which, having been enlightened, ye endured much conflict of sufferings; Heb. 10:32
- But *we* are not drawers back to perdition, but of faith to saving the soul. Heb. 10:39
- By faith Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained testimony of being righteous, God bearing testimony to his gifts, and by it, having died, he yet speaks. Heb. 11:4
- But without faith it is impossible to please him. For he that draws near to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them who seek him out. Heb. 11:6
- By faith, Noah, oracularly warned concerning things not yet seen, moved with fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his house; by which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. Heb. 11:7
- By faith Abraham, being called, obeyed to go out into the place which he was to receive for an inheritance, and went out, not knowing where he was going. Heb. 11:8
- And if they had called to mind that from whence they went out, they had had opportunity to have returned; Heb. 11:15
- but now they seek a better, that is, a heavenly; wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God; for he has prepared for them a city. Heb. 11:16
- By faith Abraham, when tried, offered up Isaac, and he who had received to himself the promises offered up his only begotten son, Heb. 11:17
- as to whom it had been said, In Isaac shall thy seed be called: Heb. 11:18
- counting that God was able to raise him even from among the dead, whence also he received him in a figure. Heb. 11:19
- By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come. Heb. 11:20
- By faith Joseph when dying called to mind the going forth of the sons of Israel, and gave commandment concerning his bones. Heb. 11:22
- By faith Moses, when he had become great, refused to be called son of Pharaoh's daughter; Heb. 11:24
- choosing rather to suffer affliction along with the people of God than to have the temporary pleasure of sin; Heb. 11:25
- esteeming the reproach of the Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt, for he had respect to the recompense. Heb. 11:26
- And ye have quite forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when reproved by him; Heb. 12:5
- Moreover we have had the fathers of our flesh as chasteners, and we reverenced them; shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live? Heb. 12:9
- For they indeed chastened for a few days, as seemed good to them; but he for profit, in order to the partaking of his holiness. Heb. 12:10
- But no chastening at the time seems to be matter of joy, but of grief; but afterwards yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those exercised by it. Heb. 12:11
- for ye know that also afterwards, desiring to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, (for he found no place for repentance) although he sought it earnestly with tears. Heb. 12:17
- For ye have not come to the mount that might be touched and was all on fire, and to obscurity, and darkness, and tempest, Heb. 12:18
- and trumpet's sound, and voice of words; which they that heard, excusing themselves, declined the word being addressed to them any more: Heb. 12:19
- (for they were not able to bear what was enjoined: And if a beast should touch the mountain, it shall be stoned; Heb. 12:20
- but ye have come to mount Zion; and to the city of the living God, heavenly Jerusalem; and to myriads of angels, Heb. 12:22
- the universal gathering; and to the assembly of the firstborn who are registered in heaven; and to God, judge of all; and to the spirits of just men made perfect; Heb. 12:23
- and to Jesus, mediator of a new covenant; and to the blood of sprinkling, speaking better than Abel. Heb. 12:24
- Wherefore let us, receiving a kingdom not to be shaken, have grace, by which let us serve God acceptably with reverence and fear. Heb. 12:28
- Remember your leaders who have spoken to you the word of God; and considering the issue of their conversation, imitate their faith. Heb. 13:7
- Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and to-day, and to the ages to come. Heb. 13:8
- We have an altar of which they have no right to eat who serve the tabernacle; Heb. 13:10
- therefore let us go forth to him without the camp, bearing his reproach: Heb. 13:13
- By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise continually to God, that is, the fruit of the lips confessing his name. Heb. 13:15
- Pray for us: for we persuade ourselves that we have a good conscience, in all things desirous to walk rightly. Heb. 13:18
- But I much more beseech you to do this, that I may the more quickly be restored to you. Heb. 13:19
- perfect you in every good work to the doing of his will, doing in you what is pleasing before him through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for the ages of ages. Amen. Heb. 13:21
- But I beseech you, brethren, bear the word of exhortation, for it is but in few words that I have written to you. Heb. 13:22
- James, bondman of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are in the dispersion, greeting. Jas. 1:1
- But if any one of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all freely and reproaches not, and it shall be given to him: Jas. 1:5
- Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for, having been proved, he shall receive the crown of life, which He has promised to them that love him. Jas. 1:12
- then lust, having conceived, gives birth to sin; but sin fully completed brings forth death. Jas. 1:15
- According to his own will begat he us by the word of truth, that we should be a certain first-fruits of *his* creatures. Jas. 1:18
- So that, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; Jas. 1:19
- Wherefore, laying aside all filthiness and abounding of wickedness, accept with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. Jas. 1:21
- For if any man be a hearer of the word and not a doer, *he* is like to a man considering his natural face in a mirror: Jas. 1:23
- If any one think himself to be religious, not bridling his tongue, but deceiving his heart, this man's religion is vain. Jas. 1:26
- Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, to keep oneself unspotted from the world. Jas. 1:27
- and ye look upon him who wears the splendid apparel, and say, Do thou sit here well, and say to the poor, Do thou stand there, or sit here under my footstool: Jas. 2:3
- Hear, my beloved brethren: Has not God chosen the poor as to the world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to them that love him? Jas. 2:5
- If indeed ye keep the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well. Jas. 2:8

- Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his great mercy, has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from among the dead, 1 Pet. 1:3
- to an incorruptible and undefiled and unfading inheritance, reserved in the heavens for you, 1 Pet. 1:4
- who are kept guarded by the power of God through faith for salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 1 Pet. 1:5
- Wherein ye exult, for a little while at present, if needed, put to grief by various trials, 1 Pet. 1:6
- that the proving of your faith, much more precious than of gold which perishes, though it be proved by fire, be found to praise and glory and honour in the revelation of Jesus Christ: 1 Pet. 1:7
- searching what, or what manner of time, the Spirit of Christ which was in them pointed out, testifying before of the sufferings which belonged to Christ, and the glories after these. 1 Pet. 1:11
- To whom it was revealed, that not to themselves but to you they ministered those things, which have now been announced to you by those who have declared to you the glad tidings by the Holy Spirit, sent from heaven, which angels desire to look into. 1 Pet. 1:12

- To whom coming, a living stone, cast away indeed as worthless by men, but with God chosen, precious, 1 Pet. 2:4
- yourselves also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. 1 Pet. 2:5
- Because it is contained in the scripture: Behold, I lay in Zion a corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believes on him shall not be put to shame. 1 Pet. 2:6
- To you therefore who believe is the preciousness; but to the disobedient, the stone which the builders cast away as worthless, this is become head of the corner, 1 Pet. 2:7
- and a stone of stumbling and rock of offence; who stumble at the word, being disobedient to which also they have been appointed. 1 Pet. 2:8

- having your conversation honest among the Gentiles, that as to that in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may through your good works, themselves witnessing them, glorify God in the day of visitation. 1 Pet. 2:12
- Be in subjection therefore to every human institution for the Lord's sake; whether to the king as supreme, 1 Pet. 2:13
- or to rulers as sent by him, for vengeance on evildoers, and praise to them that do well. 1 Pet. 2:14

- Servants, be subject with all fear to your masters, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the ill-tempered. 1 Pet. 2:18

- who himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, in order that, being dead to sins, we may live to righteousness: by whose stripes ye have been healed. 1 Pet. 2:24
- For ye were going astray as sheep, but have now returned to the shepherd and overseer of your souls. 1 Pet. 2:25
- Likewise, wives, be subject to your own husbands, that, even if any are disobedient to the word, they may be gained without the word by the conversation of the wives, 1 Pet. 3:1
- For thus also the holy women who have hoped in God heretofore adorned themselves, being subject to their own husbands; 1 Pet. 3:5
- Ye husbands likewise, dwell with them according to knowledge, as with a weaker, even the female, vessel, giving them honour, as also fellow-heirs of the grace of life, that your prayers be not hindered. 1 Pet. 3:7
- not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing; but on the contrary, blessing others, because ye have been called to this, that ye should inherit blessing. 1 Pet. 3:9
- For he that will love life and see good days, let him cause his tongue to cease from evil and his lips that they speak no guile. 1 Pet. 3:10
- but sanctify the Lord the Christ in your hearts, and be always prepared to give an answer to every one that asks you to give an account of the hope that is in you, but with meekness and fear; 1 Pet. 3:15
- having a good conscience, that as to that in which they speak against you as evildoers, they may be ashamed who calumniate your good conversation in Christ. 1 Pet. 3:16
- For it is better, if the will of God should will it, to suffer as well-doers than as evildoers; 1 Pet. 3:17
- for Christ indeed has once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God; being put to death in flesh, but made alive in the Spirit, 1 Pet. 3:18
- in which also going he preached to the spirits which are in prison, 1 Pet. 3:19
- who is at the right hand of God, gone into heaven, angels and authorities and powers being subjected to him. 1 Pet. 3:22
- no longer to live the rest of his time in the flesh to men's lusts, but to God's will. 1 Pet. 4:2
- For the time past is sufficient for us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, walking in lasciviousness, lusts, wine-drinking, revels, drinkings, and unhallowed idolatries. 1 Pet. 4:3
- Wherein they think it strange that ye run not with them to the same sink of corruption, speaking injuriously of you; 1 Pet. 4:4
- who shall render account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead. 1 Pet. 4:5
- For to this end were the glad tidings preached to the dead also, that they might be judged, as regards men, after the flesh, but live, as regards God, after the Spirit. 1 Pet. 4:6
- hospitable one to another, without murmuring; 1 Pet. 4:9
- each according as he has received a gift, ministering it to one another, as good stewards of the various grace of God. 1 Pet. 4:10
- If any one speak -- as oracles of God; if any one minister -- as of strength which God supplies; that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom is the glory and the might for the ages of ages. Amen. 1 Pet. 4:11
- Beloved, take not as strange the fire of persecution which has taken place amongst you for your trial, as if a strange thing was happening to you; 1 Pet. 4:12
- Wherefore also let them who suffer according to the will of God commit their souls in well-doing to a faithful Creator. 1 Pet. 4:19
- The elders which are among you I exhort, who am their fellow-elder and witness of the sufferings of the Christ, who also am partaker of the glory about to be revealed: 1 Pet. 5:1
- Likewise ye younger, be subject to the elder, and all of you bind on humility towards one another; for God sets himself against the proud, but to the humble gives grace. 1 Pet. 5:5
- But the God of all grace who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ Jesus, when ye have suffered for a little while, himself shall make perfect, stablish, strengthen, ground: 1 Pet. 5:10
- to him be the glory and the might for the ages of the ages. Amen. 1 Pet. 5:11
- By Silvanus, the faithful brother, as I suppose, I have written to you briefly; exhorting and testifying that this is the true grace of God in which ye stand. 1 Pet. 5:12
- Simon Peter, bondman and apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have received like precious faith with us through the righteousness of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Pet. 1:1
- Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. 2 Pet. 1:2
- As his divine power has given to us all things which relate to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that has called us by glory and virtue, 2 Pet. 1:3
- through which he has given to us the greatest and precious promises, that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 2 Pet. 1:4
- for these things existing and abounding in you make you to be neither idle nor unfruitful as regards the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ; 2 Pet. 1:8
- Wherefore the rather, brethren, use diligence to make your calling and election sure, for doing these things ye will never fall; 2 Pet. 1:10
- Wherefore I will be careful to put you always in mind of these things, although knowing them and established in the present truth. 2 Pet. 1:12
- But I account it right, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance, 2 Pet. 1:13
- knowing that the putting off of my tabernacle is speedily to take place, as also our Lord Jesus Christ has manifested to me; 2 Pet. 1:14
- but I will use diligence, that after my departure ye should have also, at any time, in your power to call to mind these things. 2 Pet. 1:15
- For we have not made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, following cleverly imagined fables, but having been eyewitnesses of *his* majesty. 2 Pet. 1:16
- For he received from God the Father honour and glory, such a voice being uttered to him by the excellent glory: This is my beloved Son, in whom *I* have found my delight; 2 Pet. 1:17
- And we have the prophetic word made surer, to which ye do well taking heed (as to a lamp shining in an obscure place) until the day dawn and the morning star arise in your hearts; 2 Pet. 1:19
- For if God spared not the angels who had sinned, but having cast them down to the deepest pit of gloom has delivered them to chains of darkness to be kept for judgment; 2 Pet. 2:4
- and having reduced the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha to ashes, condemned them with an overthrow, setting them as an example to those that should afterwards live an ungodly life; 2 Pet. 2:6
- the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of trial, and to keep the unjust to the day of judgment to be punished; 2 Pet. 2:9
- But these, as natural animals without reason, made to be caught and destroyed, speaking injuriously in things they are ignorant of, shall also perish in their own corruption, 2 Pet. 2:12
- These are springs without water, and mists driven by storm, to whom the gloom of darkness is reserved for ever. 2 Pet. 2:17
- For it were better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it to turn back from the holy commandment delivered to them. 2 Pet. 2:21
- But that word of the true proverb has happened to them: The dog has turned back to his own vomit; and, The washed sow to her rolling in mud. 2 Pet. 2:22
- This, a second letter, beloved, I already write to you, in both which I stir up, in the way of putting you in remembrance, your pure mind, 2 Pet. 3:1
- to be mindful of the words spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of the Lord and Saviour by your apostles; 2 Pet. 3:2
- knowing this first, that there shall come at the close of the days mockers with mocking, walking according to their own lusts, 2 Pet. 3:3
- The Lord does not delay his promise, as some account of delay, but is longsuffering towards you, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Pet. 3:9
- All these things then being to be dissolved, what ought ye to be in holy conversation and godliness, 2 Pet. 3:11
- But, according to his promise, we wait for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness. 2 Pet. 3:13
- Wherefore, beloved, as ye wait for these things, be diligent to be found of him in peace, without spot and blameless; 2 Pet. 3:14
- and account the longsuffering of our Lord to be salvation; according as our beloved brother Paul also has written to you according to the wisdom given to him, 2 Pet. 3:15
- as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; among which some things are hard to be understood, which the untaught and ill-established wrest, as also the other scriptures, to their own destruction. 2 Pet. 3:16
- but grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen. 2 Pet. 3:18
- (and the life has been manifested, and we have seen, and bear witness, and report to you the eternal life, which was with the Father, and has been manifested to us:) 1 Jn. 1:2
