Wherefore thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should minister in my sight, for ever. But now saith the Lord: Far be this from me: but whosoever shall glorify me, him will I glorify: but they that despise me, shall be despised. 1 Ki. 2:30
And I will raise me up a faithful priest, who shall do according to my heart, and my soul and I will build him a faithful house, and he shall walk all days before my anointed. 1 Ki. 2:35

And he asked him: What is the word that the Lord hath spoken to thee? I beseech thee hide it not from me. May God do so and so to thee, and add so and so, if thou hide from me one word of all that were said to thee. 1 Ki. 3:17
And the Lord said to Samuel: Hearken to the voice of the people in all that they say to thee. For they have not rejected thee, but me, that I should not reign over them. 1 Ki. 8:7

And Samuel said to him: What hast thou done? Saul answered: Because I saw that the people slipt from me, and thou wast not come according to the days appointed, and the Philistines were gathered together in Machmas, 1 Ki. 13:11
I said: Now will the Philistines come down upon me to Galgal, and I have not appeased the face of the Lord. Forced by necessity, I offered the holocaust. 1 Ki. 13:12
And the men of the garrison spoke to Jonathan, and to his armourbearer, and said: Come up to us, and we will shew you a thing. And Jonathan said to his armourbearer: Let us go up, follow me: for the Lord hath delivered them into the hands of Israel. 1 Ki. 14:12

And Samuel said: How shall I go? for Saul will hear of it, and he will kill me. And the Lord said: Thou shalt take with thee a calf of the herd, and thou shalt say: I am come to sacrifice to the Lord. 1 Ki. 16:2

And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me? 1 Ki. 20:10
And if I live, thou shalt shew me the kindness of the Lord: but if I die, 1 Ki. 20:14
And I will send a boy, saying to him: Go and fetch me the arrows. 1 Ki. 20:21

But if I shall speak thus to the boy: Behold the arrows are beyond thee: go in peace, for the Lord hath sent thee away. 1 Ki. 20:22
And concerning the word which I and thou have spoken, the Lord be between thee and me forever. 1 Ki. 20:23
And Jonathan answered Saul: He asked leave of me earnestly to go to Bethlehem. 1 Ki. 20:28
And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table. 1 Ki. 20:29
For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death. 1 Ki. 20:31

And David said to Achimelech, the priest: The king hath commanded me a business, and said: Let no man know the thing for which thou art sent by me, and what manner of commands I have given thee: and I have appointed my servants to such and such a place. 1 Ki. 21:2
Now therefore if thou have any thing at hand, though it were but five loaves, give me, or whatsoever thou canst find. 1 Ki. 21:3
And David said to Achimelech: Hast thou here at hand a spear, or a sword? for I brought not my own sword, nor my own weapons with me, for the king's business required haste. 1 Ki. 21:8
And the priest said: Lo, here is the sword of Goliath, the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Terebinth, wrapped up in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take this, take it, for here there is no other but this. And David said: There is none like that, give it me. 1 Ki. 21:9
And Achis said to his servants: You saw the man was mad: why have you brought him to me? 1 Ki. 21:14
And David departed from thence into Maspha of Moab: and he said to the king of Moab: Let my father and my mother tarry with you, I beseech thee, till I know what God will do for me. 1 Ki. 22:3
He said to his servants that stood about him: Hear me now, ye sons of Jemini: will the son of Isai give every one of you fields, and vineyards, and make you all tribunes, and centurions: 1 Ki. 22:7
That all of you have conspired against me, and there is no one to inform me, especially when even my son hath entered into league with the son of Isai? There is not one of you that pitieth my case, nor that giveth me any information: because my son hath raised up my servant against me, plotting against me to this day. 1 Ki. 22:8
And Saul said to him: Why have you conspired against me, thou, and the son of Isai, and thou hast given him bread and a sword, and hast consulted the Lord for him, that he should rise up against me, continuing a traitor to this day. 1 Ki. 22:13
Did I begin to day to consult the Lord for him? far be this from me: let not the king suspect such a thing against his servant, or any one in all my father's house: for thy servant knew nothing of this matter, either little or great. 1 Ki. 22:15
And the king said to the messengers that stood about him: Turn, and kill the priests of the Lord, for their hand is with David, because they knew that he was fled, and they told it not to me. And the king's servants would not put forth their hands against the priests of the Lord. 1 Ki. 22:17
Abide thou with me, fear not: for he that seeketh my life, seeketh thy life also, and with me thou shalt be saved. 1 Ki. 22:23
Will the men of Ceila deliver me into his hands? and will Saul come down, as thy servant hath heard? O Lord God of Israel, tell thy servant. And the Lord said: He will come down. 1 Ki. 23:11
And David said: Will the men of Ceila deliver me and my men into the hands of Saul? And the Lord said: They will deliver thee up. 1 Ki. 23:12
Go, therefore, I pray you, and use all diligence, and curiously inquire, and consider the place where his foot is, and who hath seen him there: for he thinketh of me, that I lie craftily in wait for him. 1 Ki. 23:22
Consider, and see all his lurking holes, wherein he is hid, and return to me with the certainty of the thing, that I may go with you. And if he should even go down into the earth to hide himself, I will search him out in all the thousands of Juda. 1 Ki. 23:23
And he said to his men: The Lord be merciful unto me, that I may do no such thing to my master, the Lord's anointed, as to lay my hand upon him, because he is the Lord's anointed. 1 Ki. 24:6
The Lord judge between me and thee and the Lord revenge me of thee: but my hand shall not be upon thee. 1 Ki. 24:12
Be the Lord judge, and judge between me and thee, and see, and judge my cause, and deliver me out of thy hand. 1 Ki. 24:15
And he said to David: Thou art more just than I: for thou hast done good to me, and I have rewarded thee with evil. 1 Ki. 24:17
And thou hast shewed this day what good things thou hast done to me: how the Lord delivered me into thy hand, and thou hast not killed me. 1 Ki. 24:18
For who when he hath found his enemy, will let him go well away? But the Lord reward thee for this good turn, for what thou hast done to me this day. 1 Ki. 24:19
Swear to me by the Lord, that thou wilt not destroy my seed after me, nor take away my name from the house of my father. 1 Ki. 24:21
And she said to her servants: Go before me: behold, I will follow after you: but she told not her husband, Nabal. 1 Ki. 25:19
And David said: Truly in vain have I kept all that belonged to this fellow in the wilderness, and nothing was lost of all that pertained unto him: and he hath returned me evil for good. 1 Ki. 25:21
And she fell at his feet, and said: Upon me let this iniquity be, my lord: let thy handmaid speak, I beseech thee, in thy ears, and hear the words of thy servant. 1 Ki. 25:24
And David said to Abigail: Blessed be the Lord the God of Israel, who sent thee this day to meet me, and blessed be thy speech: 1 Ki. 25:32
And blessed be thou, who hast kept me to day from coming to blood, and revenging me with my own hand. 1 Ki. 25:33
Otherwise, as the Lord liveth, the God of Israel, who hath withholden me from doing thee any evil, if thou hadst not quickly come to meet me, there had not been left to Nabal by the morning light, any that pisseth against the wall. 1 Ki. 25:34
David spoke to Achimelech, the Hethite, and Abisai, the son of Sarvia, the brother of Joab, saying: Who will go down with me to Saul into the camp? And Abisai said: I will go with thee. 1 Ki. 26:6
The Lord be merciful unto me, and keep me that I never put forth my hand against the Lord's anointed. But now take the spear which is at his head, and the cup of water, and let us go. 1 Ki. 26:11
Now therefore hear, I pray thee, my lord the king, the words of thy servant: If the Lord stir thee up against me, let him accept of sacrifice: but if the sons of men, they are cursed in the sight of the Lord, who have cast me out this day, that I should not dwell in the inheritance of the Lord, saying: Go, serve strange gods. 1 Ki. 26:19
And as thy life hath been much set by this day in my eyes, so let my life be much set by in the eyes of the Lord, and let him deliver me from all distress. 1 Ki. 26:24
¤ And David said in his heart: I shall one day or other fall into the hands of Saul: is it not better for me to flee, and to be saved in the land of the Philistines, that Saul may despair of me, and cease to seek me in all the coasts of Israel? I will flee then out of his hands. 1 Ki. 27:1
And David said to Achis: If I have found favour in thy sight, let a place be given me in one of the cities of this country, that I may dwell there: for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee? 1 Ki. 27:5
¤ And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered together their armies, to be prepared for war against Israel: And Achis said to David: Know thou now assuredly, that thou shalt go out with me to the war, thou, and thy men. 1 Ki. 28:1
And Saul said to his servants: Seek me a woman that hath a divining spirit, and I will go to her, and enquire by her. And his servants said to him: There is a woman that hath a divining spirit at Endor. 1 Ki. 28:7
Then he disguised himself: and put on other clothes, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night, and he said to her: Divine to me by thy divining spirit, and bring me up him whom I shall tell thee. 1 Ki. 28:8
And the woman said to him: Behold thou knowest all that Saul hath done, and how he hath rooted out the magicians and soothsayers from the land: why then dost thou lay a snare for my life, to cause me to be put to death? 1 Ki. 28:9
And the woman said to him: Whom shall I bring up to thee? And he said, Bring me up Samuel. 1 Ki. 28:11
And when the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice, and said to Saul: Why hast thou deceived me? for thou art Saul. 1 Ki. 28:12
And Samuel said to Saul: Why hast thou disturbed my rest, that I should be brought up? And Saul said: I am in great distress: for the Philistines fight against me, and God is departed from me, and would not hear me, neither by the hand of prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayst shew me what I shall do. 1 Ki. 28:15
And Samuel said: Why askest thou me, seeing the Lord has departed from thee, and is gone over to thy rival? 1 Ki. 28:16
For the Lord will do to thee as he spoke by me, and he will rend thy kingdom out of thy hand, and will give it to thy neighbour David: 1 Ki. 28:17
And the Lord also will deliver Israel with thee into the hands of the Philistines: and to morrow thou and thy sons shall be with me: and the Lord will also deliver the army of Israel into the hands of the Philistines. 1 Ki. 28:19
And the woman came to Saul, (for he was very much troubled) and said to him: Behold thy handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand: and I hearkened unto the words which thou spokest to me. 1 Ki. 28:21
Now therefore, I pray thee, hearken thou also to the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set before thee a morsel of bread, that thou mayst eat and recover strength, and be able to go on thy journey. 1 Ki. 28:22
And the princes of the Philistines said to Achis: What mean these Hebrews? And Achis said to the princes of the Philistines: Do you not know David who was the servant of Saul, the king of Israel, and hath been with me many days, or years, and I have found no fault in him, since the day that he fled over to me until this day? 1 Ki. 29:3
Then Achis called David, and said to him: As the Lord liveth, thou art upright and good in my sight: and so is thy going out, and thy coming in with me in the army: and I have not found any evil in thee, since the day that thou camest to me unto this day: but thou pleasest not the lords. 1 Ki. 29:6
And David said to Achis: But what have I done, or what hast thou found in me thy servant, from the day that I have been in thy sight until this day, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king? 1 Ki. 29:8
And he said to Abiathar, the priest, the son of Achimelech: Bring me hither the ephod. And Abiathar brought the ephod to David. 1 Ki. 30:7
And David said to him: To whom dost thou belong; or whence dost thou come? and whither art thou going? He said: I am a young man of Egypt, the servant of an Amalecite: and my master left me, because I began to be sick three days ago. 1 Ki. 30:13
And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? and he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him. 1 Ki. 30:15
Then Saul said to his armourbearer: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest these uncircumcised come, and slay me, and mock at me. And his armourbearer would not: for he was struck with exceeding great fear. Then Saul took his sword, and fell upon it. 1 Ki. 31:4
And David said unto him: What is the matter that is come to pass? tell me: He said: The people are fled from the battle, and many of the people are fallen and dead: moreover Saul and Jonathan his son are slain. 2 Ki. 1:4
And looking behind him, and seeing me, he called me. And I answered, Here am I. 2 Ki. 1:7
And he said to me: Who art thou? And I said to him: I am an Amalecite. 2 Ki. 1:8
And he said to me: Stand over me, and kill me: for anguish is come upon me, and as yet my whole life is in me. 2 Ki. 1:9
I grieve for thee, my brother Jonathan: exceeding beautiful, and amiable to me above the love of women. As the mother loveth her only son, so did I love thee. 2 Ki. 1:26
Let your hands be strengthened, and be ye men of valour: for although your master Saul be dead, yet the house of Juda hath anointed me to be their king. 2 Ki. 2:7
And again Abner said to Asael: Go off, and do not follow me, lest I be obliged to stab thee to the ground, and I shall not be able to hold up my face to Joab thy brother. 2 Ki. 2:22
Why didst thou go in to my father's concubine? And he was exceedingly angry for the words of Isboseth, and said: Am I a dog's head against Juda this day, who have shewn mercy to the house of Saul thy father, and to his brethren and friends, and have not delivered thee into the hands of David, and hast thou sought this day against me to charge me with a matter concerning a woman? 2 Ki. 3:8
Abner therefore sent messengers to David for himself, saying: Whose is the land? and that they should say: Make a league with me, and my hand shall be with thee: and I will bring all Israel to thee. 2 Ki. 3:12
And he said: Very well: I will make a league with thee: but one thing I require of thee, saying: Thou shalt not see my face before thou bring Michol the daughter of Saul: and so thou shalt come, and see me. 2 Ki. 3:13
And David sent messengers to Isboseth the son of Saul, saying: Restore my wife Michol, whom I espoused to me for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines. 2 Ki. 3:14
And when all the people came to take meat with David, while it was yet broad day, David swore, saying: So do God to me, and more also, if I taste bread or any thing else before sunset. 2 Ki. 3:35
But I as yet am tender, though anointed king. And these men the sons of Sarvia are too hard for me: the Lord reward him that doth evil according to his wickedness. 2 Ki. 3:39
The man that told me, and said: Saul is dead, who thought he brought good tidings, I apprehended, and slew him in Siceleg, who should have been rewarded for his news. 2 Ki. 4:10

I, king Nabuchodonosor, saw this dream: thou, therefore, O Baltassar, tell me quickly the interpretation: for all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to declare the meaning of it to me: but thou art able, because the spirit of the holy gods is in thee. Dan. 4:18
Now at the end of the days, I, Nabuchodonosor, lifted up my eyes to heaven, and my sense was restored to me: and I blessed the most High, and I praised and glorified him that liveth for ever: for his power is an everlasting power, and his kingdom is to all generations. Dan. 4:34

There cometh a woman of Samaria, to draw water. Jesus saith to her: Give me to drink. Jn. 4:7
Then that Samaritan woman saith to him: How dost thou, being a Jew; ask of me to drink, who am a Samaritan woman? For the Jews do not communicate with the Samaritans. Jn. 4:9
Jesus answered and said to her: If thou didst know the gift of God and who he is that saith to thee: Give me to drink; thou perhaps wouldst have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water. Jn. 4:10

But I have a greater testimony than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me to perfect, the works themselves which I do, give testimony of me, that the Father hath sent me. Jn. 5:36
And the Father himself who hath sent me hath given testimony of me: neither have you heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape. Jn. 5:37
Search the scriptures: for you think in them to have life everlasting. And the same are they that give testimony of me. Jn. 5:39
And you will not come to me that you may have life. Jn. 5:40
I am come in the name of my Father, and you receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive. Jn. 5:43

Now this is the will of the Father who sent me: that of all that he hath given me, I should lose nothing; but should raise it up again in the last day. Jn. 6:39
And this is the will of my Father that sent me: that every one who seeth the Son and believeth in him may have life everlasting. And I will raise him up in the last day. Jn. 6:40
No man can come to me, except the Father, who hath 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 all be taught of God. Every one that hath heard of the Father and hath learned cometh to me. Jn. 6:45

He that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood abideth in me: and I in him. Jn. 6:56
As the living Father hath sent me and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, the same also shall live by me. Jn. 6:57
And he said: Therefore did I say to you that no man can come to me, unless it be given him by my Father. Jn. 6:65

I know him, because I am from him: and he hath sent me. Jn. 7:29
Jesus therefore said to them: Yet a little while I am with you: and then I go to him that sent me. Jn. 7:33
You shall seek me and shall not find me: and where I am, thither you cannot come. Jn. 7:34
What is this saying that he hath said: You shall seek me and shall not find me? And: Where I am, you cannot come? Jn. 7:36
And on the last, and great day of the festivity, Jesus stood and cried, saying: If any man thirst, let him come to me and drink. Jn. 7:37

Again therefore, Jesus spoke to: them, saying: I am the light of the world. He that followeth me walketh not in darkness, but shall have the light of life. Jn. 8:12

I am one that give testimony of myself: and the Father that sent me giveth testimony of me. Jn. 8:18
They said therefore to him: Where is thy Father? Jesus answered: Neither me do you know, nor my Father. If you did know me, perhaps you would know my Father also. Jn. 8:19
Again therefore Jesus said to them: I go: and you shall seek me. And you shall die in your sin. Whither I go, you cannot come. Jn. 8:21

Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up, the Son of man, then shall you know that I am he and that I do nothing of myself. But as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak. Jn. 8:28

I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you. Jn. 8:37
But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you, which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not. Jn. 8:40
Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded and came. For I came not of myself: but he sent me. Jn. 8:42
But if I say the truth, you believe me not. Jn. 8:45
Which of you shall convince me of sin? If I say the truth to you, why do you not believe me: Jn. 8:46
Jesus answered: I have not a devil: but I honour my Father. And you have dishonoured me. Jn. 8:49
Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifieth me, of whom you say that he is your God. Jn. 8:54
I must work the works of him that sent me, whilst it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. Jn. 9:4
He answered: That man that is called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me: Go to the pool of Siloe and wash. And I went: I washed: and I see. Jn. 9:11
I am the door. By me, if any man enter in, he shall be saved: and he shall go in and go out, and shall find pastures. Jn. 10:9
I am the good shepherd: and I know mine, and mine know me. Jn. 10:14
As the Father knoweth me, and I know the Father: and I lay down my life for my sheep. Jn. 10:15
Therefore doth the Father love me: because I lay down my life, that I may take it again. Jn. 10:17
No man taketh it away from me: but I lay it down of myself. And I have power to lay it down: and I have power to take it up again. This commandment have I received of my Father. Jn. 10:18
Jesus answered them: I speak to you, and you believe not: the works that I do in the name of my Father, they give testimony of me. Jn. 10:25
My sheep hear my voice. And I know them: and they follow me. Jn. 10:27
That which my Father hath given me is greater than all: and no one can snatch them out of the hand of my Father. Jn. 10:29
Jesus answered them: Many good works I have shewed you from my Father. For which of those works do you stone me? Jn. 10:32
If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. Jn. 10:37
But if I do, though you will not believe me, believe the works: that you may know and believe that the Father is in me and I in the Father. Jn. 10:38
Jesus said to her: I am the resurrection and the life: he that believeth in me, although he be dead, shall live: Jn. 11:25
And every one that liveth and believeth in me shall not die for ever. Believest thou this? Jn. 11:26

And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people who stand about have I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me. Jn. 11:42

If any man minister to me, let him follow me: and where I am, there also shall my minister be. If any man minister to me, him will my Father honour. Jn. 12:26
Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But for this cause I came unto this hour. Jn. 12:27
Jesus answered and said: This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes. Jn. 12:30
But Jesus cried and said: He that believeth in me doth not believe in me, but in him that sent me. Jn. 12:44
And he that seeth me, seeth him that sent me. Jn. 12:45
I am come, a light into the world, that whosoever believeth in me may not remain in darkness. Jn. 12:46
He that despiseth me and receiveth not my words hath one that judgeth him. The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. Jn. 12:48
For I have not spoken of myself: but the Father who sent me, he gave me commandment what I should say and what I should speak. Jn. 12:49
And I know that his commandment is life everlasting. The things therefore that I speak, even as the Father said unto me, so do I speak. Jn. 12:50
Peter saith to him: Thou shalt never wash my feet, Jesus answered him: If I wash thee not, thou shalt have no part with me. Jn. 13:8
You call me Master and Lord. And you say well: for so I am. Jn. 13:13
I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen. But that the scripture may be fulfilled: He that eateth bread with me shall lift up his heel against me, Jn. 13:18
Amen, amen, I say to you, he that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me: and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me. Jn. 13:20
When Jesus had said these things, he was troubled in spirit; and he testified, and said: Amen, amen, I say to you, one of you shall betray me. Jn. 13:21
Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You shall seek me. And as I said to the Jews: Whither I go you cannot come; so I say to you now. Jn. 13:33
Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered: Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now: but thou shalt follow hereafter. Jn. 13:36
Jesus answered him: Wilt thou lay down thy life for me? Amen, amen, I say to thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou deny me thrice. Jn. 13:38
¤ Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God: believe also in me. Jn. 14:1
Jesus saith to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me. Jn. 14:6
If you had known me, you would without doubt have known my Father also: and from henceforth you shall know him. And you have seen him. Jn. 14:7
Jesus saith to him: Have I been so long a time with you and have you not known me? Philip, he that seeth me seeth the Father also. How sayest thou: Shew us the Father? Jn. 14:9
Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I speak to you, I speak not of myself. But the Father who abideth in me, he doth the works. Jn. 14:10
Believe you not that I am in the Father and the Father in me? Otherwise believe for the very works' sake. Jn. 14:11
Amen, amen, I say to you, he that believeth in me, the works that I do, he also shall do: and greater than these shall he do. Because I go to the Father: Jn. 14:12
If you shall ask me any thing in my name, that I will do. Jn. 14:14
If you love me, keep my commandments. Jn. 14:15
Yet a little while and the world seeth me no more. But you see me: because I live, and you shall live. Jn. 14:19
In that day you shall know that I am in my Father: and you in me, and I in you. Jn. 14:20
He that hath my commandments and keepeth them; he it is that loveth me. And he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father: and I will love him and will manifest myself to him. Jn. 14:21
Jesus answered and said to him: If any one love me, he will keep my word. And my Father will love him and we will come to him and will make our abode with him. Jn. 14:23
He that loveth me not keepeth not my words. And the word which you have heard is not mine; but the Father's who sent me. Jn. 14:24
You have heard that I said to you: I go away, and I come unto you. If you loved me you would indeed be glad, because I go to the Father: for the Father is greater than I. Jn. 14:28
I will not now speak many things with you. For the prince of this world: cometh: and in me he hath not any thing. Jn. 14:30
But that the world may know that I love the Father: and as the Father hath given me commandment, so do I. Arise, let us go hence. Jn. 14:31
Every branch in me that beareth not fruit, he will take away: and every one that beareth fruit, he will purge it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Jn. 15:2
Abide in me: and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abide in the vine, so neither can you, unless you abide in me. Jn. 15:4
I am the vine: you the branches. He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same beareth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing. Jn. 15:5
If any one abide not in me, he shall be cast forth as a branch and shall wither: and they shall gather him up and cast him into the fire: and he burneth. Jn. 15:6
If you abide in me and my words abide in you, you shall ask whatever you will: and it shall be done unto you. Jn. 15:7
As the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you. Abide in my love. Jn. 15:9
You have not chosen me: but I have chosen you; and have appointed you, that you should go and should bring forth fruit; and your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. Jn. 15:16
If the world hate you, know ye that it hath hated me before you. Jn. 15:18
Remember my word that I said to you: The servant is not greater than his master. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they have kept my word, they will keep yours also. Jn. 15:20
But all these things they will do to you for my name's sake: because they know not him that sent me. Jn. 15:21
He that hateth me hateth my Father also. Jn. 15:23
If I had not done among them the works that no other man hath done, they would not have sin: but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father. Jn. 15:24
But that the word may be fulfilled which is written in their law: they hated me without cause. Jn. 15:25
But when the Paraclete cometh, whom I will send you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, who proceedeth from the Father, he shall give testimony of me. Jn. 15:26
And you shall give testimony, because you are with me from the beginning. Jn. 15:27
And these things will they do to you; because they have not known the Father nor me. Jn. 16:3
And now I go to him that sent me, and none of you asketh me: Whither goest thou? Jn. 16:5
Of sin: because they believed not in me. Jn. 16:9
And of justice: because I go to the Father: and you shall see me no longer. Jn. 16:10
He shall glorify me: because he shall receive of mine and shall shew it to you. Jn. 16:14
A little while, and now you shall not see me: and again a little while, and you shall see me: because I go to the Father. Jn. 16:16
Then some of his disciples said one to another: What is this that he saith to us: A little while, and you shall not see me: and again a little while, and you shall see me, and, Because I go to the Father? Jn. 16:17
And Jesus knew that they had a mind to ask him. And he said to them: Of this do you inquire among yourselves, because I said: A little while, and you shall not see me; and again a little while, and you shall see me? Jn. 16:19
And in that day you shall not ask me any thing. Amen, amen, I say to you: if you ask the Father any thing in my name, he will give it you. Jn. 16:23
For the Father himself loveth you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came out from God. Jn. 16:27
Behold, the hour cometh, and it is now come, that you shall be scattered every man to his own and shall leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me. Jn. 16:32
These things I have spoken to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you shall have distress. But have confidence. I have overcome the world. Jn. 16:33
I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. Jn. 17:4
And now glorify thou me, O Father, with thyself, with the glory which I had, before the world was, with thee. Jn. 17:5
I have manifested thy name to the men whom thou hast given me out of the world. Thine they were: and to me thou gavest them. And they have kept thy word. Jn. 17:6
Now they have known that all things which thou hast given me are from thee: Jn. 17:7

I in them, and thou in me: that they may be made perfect in one: and the world may know that thou hast sent me and hast loved them, as thou hast also loved me. Jn. 17:23
Father, I will that where I am, they also whom thou hast given me may be with me: that they may see my glory which thou hast given me, because thou hast loved me before the creation of the world. Jn. 17:24

For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, seduced me: and by it killed me. Rom. 7:11
Was that then which is good made death unto me? God forbid! But sin, that it may appear sin, by that which is good, wrought death in me: that sin, by the commandment, might become sinful above measure. Rom. 7:13

For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is to say, in my flesh, that which is good. For to will is present with me: but to accomplish that which is good, I find not. Rom. 7:18
Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it: but sin that dwelleth in me. Rom. 7:20
I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me. Rom. 7:21
But I see another law in my members, fighting against the law of my mind and captivating me in the law of sin that is in my members. Rom. 7:23

For it is written: As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me and every tongue shall confess to God. Rom. 14:11

For I am not conscious to myself of anything. Yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judgeth me is the Lord. 1 Cor. 4:4
Wherefore, I beseech you, be ye followers of me as I also am of Christ. 1 Cor. 4:16
All things are lawful to me: but all things are not expedient. All things are lawful to me: but I will not be brought under the power of any. 1 Cor. 6:12
¤ Now concerning the things whereof you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman. 1 Cor. 7:1
My defence with them that do examine me is this. 1 Cor. 9:3
But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die rather than that any man should make my glory void. 1 Cor. 9:15
For if I preach the gospel, it is no glory to me: for a necessity lieth upon me. For woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel. 1 Cor. 9:16
For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me. 1 Cor. 9:17
All things are lawful for me: but all things are not expedient. All things are lawful for me: but all things do not edify. 1 Cor. 10:23

Now I praise you, brethren, that in all things you are mindful of me and keep my ordinances as I have delivered them to you. 1 Cor. 11:2
And giving thanks, broke and said: Take ye and eat: This is my body, which shall be delivered for you. This do for the commemoration of me. 1 Cor. 11:24
In like manner also the chalice, after he had supped, saying: This chalice is the new testament in my blood. This do ye, as often as you shall drink, for the commemoration of me. 1 Cor. 11:25
And if I should distribute all my goods to feed the poor, and if I should deliver my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. 1 Cor. 13:3
If then I know not the power of the voice, I shall be to him to whom I speak a barbarian: and he that speaketh a barbarian to me. 1 Cor. 14:11
In the law it is written: In other tongues and other lips I will speak to this people: and neither so will they hear me, saith the Lord. 1 Cor. 14:21
And last of all, he was seen also by me, as by one born out of due time. 1 Cor. 15:8
But by the grace of God, I am what I am. And his grace in me hath not been void: but I have laboured more abundantly than all they. Yet not I, but the grace of God with me: 1 Cor. 15:10

And if it be meet that I also go, they shall go with me. 1 Cor. 16:4
And with you perhaps I shall abide, or even spend the winter: that you may bring me on my way whithersoever I shall go. 1 Cor. 16:6

Let no man therefore despise him: but conduct ye him on his way in peace, that he may come to me. For I look for him with the brethren. 1 Cor. 16:11
The salutation of me Paul, with my own hand. 1 Cor. 16:21
Whereas then I was thus minded, did I use lightness? Or, the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that there should be with me, It is, and It is not? 2 Cor. 1:17
For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, by me and Sylvanus and Timothy, was not: It is and It is not. But, It is, was in him. 2 Cor. 1:19
For if I make you sorrowful, who is he then that can make me glad, but the same who is made sorrowful by me? 2 Cor. 2:2
And if any one have caused grief, he hath not grieved me: but in part, that I may not burden you all. 2 Cor. 2:5
And when I was come to Troas for the gospel of Christ and a door was opened unto me in the Lord, 2 Cor. 2:12
And not by his coming only, but also by the consolation wherewith he was comforted in you, relating to us your desire, your mourning, your zeal for me: so that I rejoiced the more. 2 Cor. 7:7
¤ For concerning the ministry that is done towards the saints, it is superfluous for me to write unto you. 2 Cor. 9:1
Lest, when the Macedonians shall come with me and find you unprepared, we (not to say ye) should be ashamed in this matter. 2 Cor. 9:4
¤ Would to God you could bear with some little of my folly! But do bear with me. 2 Cor. 11:1
And, when I was present with you and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was wanting to me, the brethren supplied who came from Macedonia. And in all things I have kept myself from being burthensome to you: and so I will keep myself. 2 Cor. 11:9
The truth of Christ is in me, that this glorying shall not be broken off in me in the regions of Achaia. 2 Cor. 11:10
I say again (Let no man think me to be foolish: otherwise take me as one foolish, that I also may glory a little): 2 Cor. 11:16
At Damascus, the governor of the nation under Aretas the king, guarded the city of the Damascenes, to apprehend me. 2 Cor. 11:32
For though I should have a mind to glory, I shall not be foolish: for I will say the truth. But I forbear, lest any man should think of me above that which he seeth in me, or any thing he heareth from me. 2 Cor. 12:6
And lest the greatness of the revelations should exalt me, there was given me a sting of my flesh, an angel of Satan, to buffet me. 2 Cor. 12:7
For which thing, thrice I besought the Lord that it might depart from me. 2 Cor. 12:8
And he said to me: My grace is sufficient for thee: for power is made perfect in infirmity. Gladly therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 2 Cor. 12:9
I am become foolish. You have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended by you. For I have no way come short of them that are above measure apostles, although I be nothing. 2 Cor. 12:11
For what is there that you have had less than the other churches but that I myself was not burthensome to you? Pardon me this injury. 2 Cor. 12:13

Do you seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me, who towards you is not weak, but is mighty in you? 2 Cor. 13:3
Therefore I write these things, being absent, that, being present, I may not deal more severely, according to the power which the Lord hath given me unto edification and not unto destruction. 2 Cor. 13:10
And all the brethren who are with me: to the churches of Galatia. Gal. 1:2
For I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. Gal. 1:11
But when it pleased him who separated me from my mother's womb and called me by his grace, Gal. 1:15
To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles: immediately I condescended not to flesh and blood. Gal. 1:16
Neither went I to Jerusalem, to the apostles who were before me: but I went into Arabia, and again I returned to Damascus. Gal. 1:17
And they glorified God in me. Gal. 1:24
¤ Then, after fourteen years, I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me. Gal. 2:1
But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Gentile, was compelled to be circumcised. Gal. 2:3
But of them who seemed to be some thing, (what they were some time it is nothing to me, God accepteth not the person of man): for to me they that seemed to be some thing added nothing. Gal. 2:6
But contrariwise, when they had seen that to me was committed the gospel of the uncircumcision, as to Peter was that of the circumcision. Gal. 2:7
(For he who wrought in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision wrought in me also among the Gentiles.) Gal. 2:8
And when they had known the grace that was given to me, James and Cephas and John, who seemed to be pillars, gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship: that we should go unto the Gentiles, and they unto the circumcision: Gal. 2:9
With Christ I am nailed to the cross. And I live, now not I: but Christ liveth in me. And that I live now in the flesh: I live in the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and delivered himself for me. Gal. 2:20
Be ye as I, because I also am as you brethren, I beseech you. You have not injured me at all. Gal. 4:12
You despised not, nor rejected: but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus. Gal. 4:14
Where is then your blessedness? For I bear you witness that, if it could be done, you would have plucked out your own eyes and would have given them to me. Gal. 4:15
Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, have you not read the law? Gal. 4:21
But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ: by whom the world is crucified to me, and I to the world. Gal. 6:14
From henceforth let no man be troublesome to me: for I bear the marks of the Lord Jesus in my body. Gal. 6:17
If yet you have heard of the dispensation of the grace of God which is given me towards you: Eph. 3:2

I pray thee shew thy seruant the end of thy signes, wherof thou didst shew me part the night before. 4 Esd. 6:12
And he answered, and sayd to me: Arise vpon thy feete, and heare a voice most ful of sound. 4 Esd. 6:13
And it came to passe, when he spake to me, & I loe by litle & litle looked on him before whom I stood, 4 Esd. 6:29
and he sayd to me these wordes: I am come to shew thee the time of the night to come. 4 Esd. 6:30
and for this cause he hath sent me to shew thee al these thinges, and to say to thee, haue confidence, and feare not, 4 Esd. 6:33
And it came to passe after these thinges, and I wept againe, and in like maner I fasted seuen dayes, to accomplish the three weekes, that were told me. 4 Esd. 6:35
And it came to passe in the eight night, and my hart was trubled againe in me, and I began to speake before the Highest. 4 Esd. 6:36
¤ AND it came to passe when I had ended to speake these wordes, the Angel was sent to me, which had bene sent to me the first nights, 4 Esd. 7:1
and he sayd to me: Arise Esdras, and heare the wordes which I am come to speake to thee. 4 Esd. 7:2
And I sayd: Speake my God. And he sayd to me: The sea is set in a large place, that it might be deepe and wide: 4 Esd. 7:3
And I sayd: So Lord. And he sayd to me, So it is: Israel also a part. 4 Esd. 7:10
And he sayd to me: There is no iudge aboue God, nor that vnderstandeth aboue the Highest. 4 Esd. 7:19
And he answered me, and said, Hearken unto me, and I will instruct thee; and I will admonish thee yet again: 4 Esd. 7:49
And he said unto me, Not only this, but ask the earth, and she shall tell thee; intreat her, and she shall declare unto thee. 4 Esd. 7:54
And he answered me, and said, Weigh within thyself the things that thou hast thought, for he that hath what is hard to get rejoiceth over him that hath what is plentiful. 4 Esd. 7:59
And he answered me, and said, When the Most High made the world, and Adam and all them that came of him, he first prepared the judgement and the things that pertain unto the judgement. 4 Esd. 7:70
And he answered me, and said, I will shew thee this also; but join not thyself with them that are scorners, nor number thyself with them that are tormented. 4 Esd. 7:76
And I answered and said, Shall time therefore be given unto the souls after they are separated from the bodies, that they may see that whereof thou hast spoken unto me? 4 Esd. 7:100
And I answered and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, shew further unto me thy servant whether in the day of judgement the just will be able to intercede for the ungodly or to intreat the Most High for them, 4 Esd. 7:102
And he answered me, and said, Since thou hast found favour in my sight, I will shew thee this also: The day of judgement is a day of decision, and displayeth unto all the seal of truth; even as now a father sendeth not his son, or a son his father, or a master his slave, or a friend him that is most dear, that in his stead he may be sick, or sleep, or eat, or be healed: 4 Esd. 7:104
And he answered me and sayd: This present world is not the end, much glorie remaineth in it: for this cause they prayed for the impotent. 4 Esd. 7:112
But they beleued him not, no nor the Prophetes after him, no nor me which haue spoken to them. 4 Esd. 7:130
¤ AND he answered me, & sayd: This world the Highest made for manie, but that to come for few. 4 Esd. 8:1
Therfore wil I begin to pray before thee for me, & for them: because I see our defaultes that inhabite the earth. 4 Esd. 8:17
And he answered me, and sayd: Thou hast spoken somethinges rightly: and according to thy wordes, so also shal it be done, 4 Esd. 8:37
And I answered, and sayd: If I haue found grace, let me speake. 4 Esd. 8:42
And he answered me, and sayd: The thinges that are present to them that are present, and that shal be, to them that shal be. 4 Esd. 8:46
For thou lackest much to be able to loue my creature aboue me: and to thee often times, euen to thyselfe I haue approched, but to the vniust neuer. 4 Esd. 8:47
Behold now Lord thou hast shewed me a multitude of signes, which thou wilt beginne to doe in the latter times: but thou hast not shewed me at what time. 4 Esd. 8:63
¤ AND he answered me, and sayd: Measuring measure thou the time in it selfe: and it shal be when thou seest, after a certaine part of the signes which are spoken of before shal passe, 4 Esd. 9:1
For they that knew not me, hauing obtained benefits when they liued: 4 Esd. 9:10
And he ansvvered me, and sayd: Like as the field so also the sedes: and as the flovvers, such also the colours: and as the workeman, such also the worke: and such as the husbandman, such is the husbandrie: because it was the time of the world. 4 Esd. 9:17
And now when I was preparing for them, for these that now are before the world was made, wherin they should dwel: and no man gaynsayd me. 4 Esd. 9:18
And I went forth, as he sayd to me, into a field which is called Ardath, and I sate there among the flowers. And I did eate of the herbes of the field, and the meate of them made me ful. 4 Esd. 9:26
Thou Israel heare me, and sede of Iacob attend to my wordes. 4 Esd. 9:30
Why weepest thou? and why art thou sorie in mynde. And she sayd to me: 4 Esd. 9:40
Suffer me my Lord, that I may lament myselfe, & adde sorrow: because I am of a very pensiue mynde, and am humbled exceedingly. 4 Esd. 9:41
And I sayd to her, What ayleth thee: tel me. And she sayd to me: 4 Esd. 9:42
And it came to passe, after thirtie yeares God heard me thy handmayd, and saw my humilitie, and attended to my tribulation, and gaue me a sonne: and I was very ioyful vpon him, and my husband, and al my citizens, and we did glorifie the Strong exceedingly. 4 Esd. 9:45
and we al ouerthrewe the lights, and al my citizens rose vp to comfort me, and I was quiet vntil the other day at night. 4 Esd. 10:2
And it came to passe, when al were quiet to comfort me, that I might be quiet: and I arose in the night, and fled: and came as thou seest into this field. 4 Esd. 10:3
And if thou say vnto me, that my mourning is not lyke the earthes: because I haue lost the fruite of my wombe, which I bare with sorrowes, and brought forth with paynes: 4 Esd. 10:12
Goe in therfore into the citie to thy husband. And she sayd to me: 4 Esd. 10:17
and behold, the woman did no more appeare vnto me, but a citie was built, & a place was shewed of great fundations: and I was afrayd, & crying with a loude voyce I sayd: 4 Esd. 10:27
Where is Vriel the Angel, that from the beginning came to me? for he made me come in multitude in excesse of this minde, and my end is made into corruption, & my prayer into reproch. 4 Esd. 10:28
And when I was speaking these thinges, behold he came to me, and sawe me. 4 Esd. 10:29
And behold I was layd as dead, & my vnderstanding was alienated, and he held my right hand, and strengthned me, & set me vpon my feete, & sayd to me: 4 Esd. 10:30
Because thou hast forsaken me, and I in dede haue done according to thy wordes, & went out into the field: & behold, I haue seene, & doe see that which I cannot vtter. And he sayd to me: 4 Esd. 10:32
Speake thou my Lord in me, forsake me not, that I die not in vaine: 4 Esd. 10:34
Now therfore I besech thee, that thou shew vnto thy seruant concerning this trance. And he answered me, & sayd: 4 Esd. 10:37
Heare me, and I wil teach thee, and wil tel thee of what thinges thou art afrayd: because the Highest hath reuealed vnto thee manie mysteries. 4 Esd. 10:38
And I slept that night, and the other next, as he had sayd to me. 4 Esd. 10:60
And I heard a voice saying to me, Looke against thee, and consider what thou seest. 4 Esd. 11:36
Behold thou hast geuen me this, in that, that thou searchest the wayes of the Highest. 4 Esd. 12:4
Behold yet I am wearie in minde, and in my spirit I am very feeble, and there is not so much as a litle strength in me for the great feare, that I was afrayd of this night. 4 Esd. 12:5
Now therfore I wil pray the Highest, that he strengthen me euen to the end. 4 Esd. 12:6
strengthen me, and shew vnto me thy seruant the interpretation, and distinction of this horrible vision, that thou mayst comfort my soule most fully. 4 Esd. 12:8
For thou hast counted me worthie to shew vnto me the later times. And he sayd to me: 4 Esd. 12:9
And he departed from me. And it came to passe, when al the people had heard that the seuen dayes were past, and I had not returned into the citie, and al gathered them selues together from the least vnto the greatest: & came to me, & spake to me saying: 4 Esd. 12:40
but I sate in the fielde seuen dayes, as he commanded me: and I did eate of the flowers of the field only, of the herbes was my meate made in those dayes. 4 Esd. 12:51
Thou from the beginning hast shewed thy seruant these meruelous thinges, and hast counted me worthie that thou wouldest receiue my petition. 4 Esd. 13:14
And now shew me yet the interpretation of this dreame. 4 Esd. 13:15
But yet it is easier, aduenturing to come into it, then to passe, as a cloud from the world, and vow to see the thinges that happen in the later time. And he answered me, and sayd: 4 Esd. 13:20
And I sayd: Lord dominatour, shew me this, why I saw a man comming vp from the hart of the sea, and he sayd to me: 4 Esd. 13:51
And behold a voice came forth against me out of a bush, and sayd: Esdras, Esdras: and I sayd: Loe here I am Lord. And I arose vpon my feete. And he sayd to me: 4 Esd. 14:2
and I sent him, and brought my people out of AEgypt, and brought him vpon mount Sina, & held him with me manie dayes. 4 Esd. 14:4
For behold I wil goe, as thou hast commanded me, & wil rebuke the people that now is. But them that shal yet be born, who shal admonish? 4 Esd. 14:19
For if I haue found grace with thee, send the Holie Ghost to me, & I wil write al that hath bene done in the world from the beginning, the thinges that were written in thy law, that men may finde the pathe: and they that wil liue in the later times, may liue. 4 Esd. 14:22
And he answered me, and sayd: Goe gather together the people, and thou shalt say to them, that they seeke thee not for fourtie dayes. 4 Esd. 14:23
And I went as he commanded me, & gathered together al the people, and sayd: 4 Esd. 14:27
Let no man therfore come to me now, nor aske for me vntil fourtie dayes. 4 Esd. 14:36
And I tooke the fiue men, as he commandede me, and we went forth into the field, and taried there. 4 Esd. 14:37
And I was come to the morrow, & behold as voice called me, saying: Esdras open thy mouth, and drinke that which I wil geue thee to drinke. (Ezech. 3) 4 Esd. 14:38
And I opened my mouth, & behold a ful cuppe was brought me, this was ful as it were with water: but the colour therof like as fire. 4 Esd. 14:39
I wil not now kepe silence of their impieties which they doe irreligiously, neither wil I beare with those thinges, which they practise vniustly. Behold the innocent & iust bloud crieth to me, & the soules of the iust crie continually. 4 Esd. 15:8
Reuenging I wil reuenge them, sayth our Lord, and I wil take al innocent bloud out of them vnto me. (Apoc. 6:10 & 19:2) 4 Esd. 15:9
Behold, I cal together sayth God, al the kinges of the earth to feare me, that are from the Orient, & from the South, from the East, & from Libanus, to be turned vpon themselues, and to render the thinges that they haue geuen them. 4 Esd. 15:20
Woe is me, woe is me: who shal deliuer me in those dayes? 4 Esd. 16:17
