|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.1">The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.2">As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before your face, which shall prepare your way before you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.3">The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.4">John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.5">And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.6">And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.7">And preached, saying, There comes one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.8">I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.9">And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in the Jordan.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.10">And immediately coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.11">And there came a voice from heaven, saying, You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.12">And immediately the spirit drives him into the wilderness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.13">And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.14">Now after John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.15">And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent you, and believe the gospel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.16">Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.17">And Jesus said unto them, Come you after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.18">And immediately they gave up their nets, and followed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.19">And when he had gone a little farther from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.20">And immediately he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.21">And they went into Capernaum; and immediately on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.22">And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.23">And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.24">Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with you, Jesus of Nazareth? are you come to destroy us? I know you who you are, the Holy One of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.25">And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold your peace, and come out of him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.26">And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.27">And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.28">And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.29">And immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.30">But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and soon they tell him of her.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.31">And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.32">And at evening, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.33">And all the city was gathered together at the door.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.34">And he healed many that were sick of different diseases, and cast out many devils; and permitted not the devils to speak, because they knew him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.35">And in the morning, rising up much before daybreak, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.36">And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.37">And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.38">And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for this purpose came I forth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.39">And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.40">And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If you will, you can make me clean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.41">And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and says unto him, I will; be clean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.42">And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.43">And he strictly instructed him, and immediately sent him away;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.44">And says unto him, See you say nothing to any man: but go your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.1.45">But he went out, and began to announce it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was outside in deserted places: and they came to him from every quarter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Mark.1.45">
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.1">And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was reported that he was in the house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.2">And immediately many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as around the door: and he preached the word unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.3">And they come unto him, bringing one sick of the palsy, which was carried by four.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.4">And when they could not come close unto him for the press, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed in which the one sick of the palsy lay.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.5">When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the one sick of the palsy, Son, your sins be forgiven you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.6">But there was certain of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.7">Why does this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.8">And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, he said unto them, Why reason you these things in your hearts?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.9">Which is easier to say to the one sick of the palsy, Your sins be forgiven you; or to say, Arise, and take up your bed, and walk?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.10">But that you may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins, (he says to the one sick of the palsy,)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.11">I say unto you, Arise, and take up your bed, and go your way into your house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.12">And immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went forth before them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, We never saw it in this manner.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.13">And he went forth again by the seaside; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.14">And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.15">And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at food in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.16">And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eats and drinks with publicans and sinners?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.17">When Jesus heard it, he says unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.18">And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples fast not?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.19">And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.20">But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.21">No man also sews a piece of new cloth on an old garment: else the new piece that filled it up takes away from the old, and the tear is made worse.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.22">And no man puts new wine into old bottles: else the new wine does burst the bottles, and the wine is spilled, and the bottles will be marred: but new wine must be put into new bottles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.23">And it came to pass, that he went through the corn fields on the sabbath day; and his disciples began, as they went, to pluck the ears of corn.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.24">And the Pharisees said unto him, Behold, why do they on the sabbath day that which is not lawful?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.25">And he said unto them, Have you never read what David did, when he had need, and was hungry, he, and they that were with him?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.26">How he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and did eat the showbread, which is not lawful to eat but for the priests, and gave also to those who were with him?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.2.27">And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.5">And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.6">But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.7">And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.8">And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some a hundred.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.9">And he said unto them, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.10">And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.11">And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are outside, all these things are done in parables:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.12">That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.13">And he said unto them, Do you not know this parable? and how then will you know all parables?</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.14">The sower sows the word.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.15">And these are they by the wayside, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan comes immediately, and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Mark.4.16">And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.17">And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution arises for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.18">And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.19">And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.20">And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some a hundred.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.21">And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.22">For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.23">If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.24">And he said unto them, Take heed what you hear: with what measure you mete out, it shall be measured back to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.25">For he that has, to him shall be given: and he that has not, from him shall be taken even that which he has.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Mark.4.26">And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.27">And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knows not how.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.4.28">For the earth brings forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.29">But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest is come.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.30">And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.31">It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.32">But when it is sown, it grows up, and becomes greater than all herbs, and shoots out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.33">And with many such parables spoke he the word unto them, as they were able to hear it.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.35">And the same day, when the evening was come, he says unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.37">And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was now full.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.38">And he was in the hinder part of the boat, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, care you not that we perish?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.39">And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.4.40">And he said unto them, Why are you so fearful? how is it that you have no faith?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.4.41">And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.2">And when he was come out of the boat, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.3">Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.4">Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.5">And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.6">But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.7">And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the most high God? I beg you by God, that you torment me not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.8">For he said unto him, Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.9">And he asked him, What is your name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.10">And he asked him much that he would not send them away out of the country.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.5.11">Now there was there close unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Mark.5.12">And all the devils asked him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.13">And immediately Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.14">And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.15">And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.16">And they that saw it told them how it happened to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Mark.5.17">And they began to ask him to depart out of their borders.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Mark.5.18">And when he was come into the boat, he that had been possessed with the devil asked him that he might be with him.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.19">However Jesus did not permit it, but says unto him, Go home to your friends, and tell them how the Lord has done great things for you, and has had compassion on you.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.20">And he departed, and began to speak out in Decapolis how Jesus had done great things for him: and all men did marvel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.21">And when Jesus had passed over again by boat unto the other side, many people gathered unto him: and he was close unto the sea.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.22">And, behold, there comes one of the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw him, he fell at his feet,</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.24">And Jesus went with him; and many people followed him, and thronged him.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.25">And a certain woman, which had an issue of blood for twelve years,</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.26">And had endured many things of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse,</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.27">When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.28">For she said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.29">And immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.30">And Jesus, immediately knowing in himself that power had gone out of him, turned him about in the press, and said, Who touched my clothes?</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.31">And his disciples said unto him, You see the multitude thronging you, and say you, Who touched me?</verse>

|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.33">But the woman fearing and trembling, knowing what was done in her, came and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.34">And he said unto her, Daughter, your faith has made you whole; go in peace, and be whole of your plague.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.35">While he yet spoke, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, Your daughter is dead: why trouble you the Master any further?</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.5.36">As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he says unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.37">And he permitted no man to follow him, except Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.38">And he comes to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and sees the tumult, and them that wept and wailed greatly.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.5.39">And when he was come in, he says unto them, Why make you this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead, but sleeps.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.40">And they laughed him to scorn. But when he had put them all out, he takes the father and the mother of the damsel, and them that were with him, and enters in where the damsel was lying.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.41">And he took the damsel by the hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted, Damsel, I say unto you, arise.</verse>
|

|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.42">And immediately the damsel arose, and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were astonished with a great astonishment.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.5.43">And he charged them strictly that no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given her to eat.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.6.2">And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From where has this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.6.3">Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.6.8">And commanded them that they should take nothing for their journey, except a staff only; no scrip, no bread, no money in their purse:</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.6.12">And they went out, and preached that men should repent.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.6.18">For John had said unto Herod, It is not lawful for you to have your brother's wife.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.6.19">Therefore Herodias had a quarrel against him, and would have killed him; but she could not:</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.7.9">And he said unto them, Full well you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your own tradition.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.7.10">For Moses said, Honor your father and your mother; and, Whoever curses father or mother, let him die the death:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.11">But you say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift (to God), whatever you might have gained from me; he shall be free.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.12">And you permit him no more to do anything for his father or his mother;</verse>
|

|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.16">If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.7.17">And when he was entered into the house from the people, his disciples asked him concerning the parable.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.7.18">And he says unto them, Are you so without understanding also? Do you not perceive, that whatsoever thing from outside enters into the man, it cannot defile him;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.19">Because it enters not into his heart, but into the belly, and goes out into the drain, purging all foods?</verse>
|

|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.20">And he said, That which comes out of the man, that defiles the man.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.7.23">All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.24">And from there he arose, and went into the borders of Tyre and Sidon, and entered into a house, and would have no man know it: but he could not be hid.</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.25">For a certain woman, whose young daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, and came and fell at his feet:</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.7.26">The woman was a Greek, a Syrophenician by nation; and she asked him that he would cast forth the devil out of her daughter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.27">But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not suitable to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.28">And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.</verse>
|
|

|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.29">And he said unto her, For this saying go your way; the devil is gone out of your daughter.</verse>
|

|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.30">And when she was come to her house, she found the devil gone out, and her daughter laid upon the bed.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Mark.7.31">And again, departing from the borders of Tyre and Sidon, he came unto the sea of Galilee, through the midst of the borders of Decapolis.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.32">And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.33">And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue;</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.7.34">And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and says unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.</verse>
|
|

|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.35">And immediately his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spoke plainly.</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.7.36">And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they announced it;</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.7.37">And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He has done all things well: he makes both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Mark.7.37">
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.1">In those days the multitude being very great, and having nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples unto him, and says unto them,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.2">I have compassion on the multitude, because they have now been with me three days, and have nothing to eat:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.3">And if I send them away without food to their own houses, they will faint by the way: for some of them came from far.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.4">And his disciples answered him, From where can a man satisfy these men with bread here in the wilderness?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.5">And he asked them, How many loaves have you? And they said, Seven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.6">And he commanded the people to sit down on the ground: and he took the seven loaves, and gave thanks, and broke, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and they did set them before the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.7">And they had a few small fishes: and he blessed, and commanded to set them also before them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.8">So they did eat, and were filled: and they took up of the broken food that was left seven baskets.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.9">And they that had eaten were about four thousand: and he sent them away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.10">And immediately he entered into a boat with his disciples, and came into the parts of Dalmanutha.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.11">And the Pharisees came forth, and began to question with him, seeking of him a sign from heaven, tempting him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.12">And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and says, Why does this generation seek after a sign? Truthfully I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.13">And he left them, and entering into the boat again departed to the other side.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.14">Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the boat with them more than one loaf.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.15">And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.16">And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.17">And when Jesus knew it, he says unto them, Why reason you, because you have no bread? perceive you not yet, neither understand? have you your heart yet hardened?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.18">Having eyes, see you not? and having ears, hear you not? and do you not remember?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.19">When I broke the five loaves among five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took you up? They say unto him, Twelve.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.20">And when the seven among four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took you up? And they said, Seven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.21">And he said unto them, How is it that you do not understand?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.22">And he comes to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and asked him to touch him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.23">And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw anything.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.24">And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.25">After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.26">And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.27">And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.28">And they answered, John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others, One of the prophets.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.29">And he says unto them, But whom say you that I am? And Peter answers and says unto him, You are the Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.30">And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.31">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 scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.32">And he spoke that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.33">But when he had turned about and looked on his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get you behind me, Satan: for you savour not the things that be of God, but the things that be of men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.34">And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.35">For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.36">For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.37">Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.8.38">Whosoever therefore shall be ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation; of him also shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.</verse>

|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.9.2">And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter, and James, and John, and leads them up into a high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.9.3">And his clothing became shining, exceedingly white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can whiten them.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.9.4">And there appeared unto them Elijah with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.9.9">And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.9.10">And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.9.11">And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elijah must first come?</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Mark.9.12">And he answered and told them, Elijah truthfully comes first, and restores all things; and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be despised.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.9.13">But I say unto you, That Elijah is indeed come, and they have done unto him whatsoever they desired, as it is written of him.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.9.19">He answers him, and says, O faithless generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I endure you? bring him unto me.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Mark.9.20">And they brought him unto him: and when he saw him, immediately the spirit tore him; and he fell on the ground, and wallowed foaming.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.12.27">He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: you therefore do greatly err.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.12.30">And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.12.31">And the second is similar, namely this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is none other commandment greater than these.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.12.32">And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, you have said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.12.33">And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbor as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.12.34">And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said unto him, You are not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that dared ask him any question.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Mark.13.37">
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.1">After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.2">But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.3">And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at food, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she broke the box, and poured it on his head.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.4">And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.5">For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.6">And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble you her? she has wrought a good work on me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.7">For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you will you may do them good: but me you have not always.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.8">She has done what she could: she is come beforehand to anoint my body to the burying.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.9">Truthfully I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she has done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.10">And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.11">And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.12">And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where will you that we go and prepare that you may eat the passover?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.13">And he sends forth two of his disciples, and says unto them, Go you into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.14">And wherever he shall go in, say you to the goodman of the house, The Master says, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.15">And he will show you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.16">And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.17">And in the evening he comes with the twelve.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.18">And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Truthfully I say unto you, One of you who eats with me shall betray me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.19">And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.20">And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dips with me in the dish.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.21">The Son of man indeed goes, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.22">And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.23">And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.24">And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.25">Truthfully I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.26">And when they had sung a hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.27">And Jesus says unto them, All you shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.28">But after I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.29">But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.30">And Jesus says unto him, Truthfully I say unto you, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, you shall deny me three times.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.31">But he spoke the more vehemently, If I should die with you, I will not deny you in any wise. Likewise also said they all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.32">And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he says to his disciples, Sit you here, while I shall pray.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.33">And he takes with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.34">And says unto them, My soul is exceedingly sorrowful unto death: tarry you here, and watch.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.35">And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.36">And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto you; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what you will.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.37">And he comes, and finds them sleeping, and says unto Peter, Simon, do you sleep? could you not watch one hour?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.38">Watch you and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.39">And again he went away, and prayed, and spoke the same words.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.40">And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither did they know what to answer him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.41">And he comes the third time, and says unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.42">Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrays me is at hand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.43">And immediately, while he yet spoke, comes Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.44">And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.45">And as soon as he was come, he goes immediately to him, and says, Master, master; and kissed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.46">And they laid their hands on him, and took him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.47">And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.48">And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are you come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.49">I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.50">And they all forsook him, and fled.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.51">And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.52">And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.53">And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.54">And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.55">And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.56">For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.57">And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.58">We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.59">But neither so did their witness agree together.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.60">And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answer you nothing? what is it which these witness against you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.61">But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.62">And Jesus said, I am: and you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.63">Then the high priest tore his clothes, and says, What need we any further witnesses?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.64">You have heard the blasphemy: what think you? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.65">And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the palms of their hands.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.66">And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there comes one of the maids of the high priest:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.67">And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, And you also were with Jesus of Nazareth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.68">But he denied, saying, I do not know, neither understand I what you say. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crowed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.69">And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This is one of them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.70">And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely you are one of them: for you are a Galilaean, and your speech agrees to that.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.71">But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I do not know this man of whom you speak.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.14.72">And the second time the cock crowed. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crows twice, you shall deny me three times. And when he thought on this, he wept.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Mark.14.72">
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.1">And immediately in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.2">And Pilate asked him, Are you the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto them, You say it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.3">And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.4">And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answer you nothing? behold how many things they witness against you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.5">But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.6">Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whoever they desired.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.7">And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.8">And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had always done unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.9">But Pilate answered them, saying, Will you that I release unto you the King of the Jews?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.10">For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him because of.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.11">But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.12">And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will you then that I shall do unto him whom you call the King of the Jews?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.13">And they cried out again, Crucify him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.14">Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil has he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.15">And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had whipped him, to be crucified.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.16">And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.17">And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.18">And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.19">And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.20">And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.21">And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.22">And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.23">And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.24">And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.25">And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.26">And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.27">And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.28">And the scripture was fulfilled, which says, And he was numbered with the transgressors.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.29">And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, you that destroys the temple, and builds it in three days,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.30">Save yourself, and come down from the cross.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.31">Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.32">Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.33">And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.34">And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.35">And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calls Elijah.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.36">And one ran and filled a sponge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let him alone; let us see whether Elijah will come to take him down.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.37">And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.38">And the veil of the temple was torn in two from the top to the bottom.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.39">And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.40">There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.41">(Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.42">And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.43">Joseph of Arimathaea, an honorable counselor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and requested the body of Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.44">And Pilate wondered if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.45">And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.46">And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulcher which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulcher.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.15.47">And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Mark.15.47">
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.1">And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.2">And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulcher at the rising of the sun.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.3">And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulcher?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.4">And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.5">And entering into the sepulcher, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were frightened.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.6">And he says unto them, Be not frightened: You seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.7">But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goes before you into Galilee: there shall you see him, as he said unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.8">And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulcher; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.9">Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.10">And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.11">And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.12">After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.13">And they went and told it unto the others: neither believed they them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.14">Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at food, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not those who had seen him after he was risen.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.15">And he said unto them, Go you into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.16">He that believes and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believes not shall be damned.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.17">And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Mark.16.18">They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Mark.16.19">So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.</verse>

<verse osisID="Mark.16.20">And they went forth, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen. </div></verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.1.5">THERE was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.6">And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.7">And they had no child, because Elisabeth was barren, and they both were now well advanced in years.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.8">And it came to pass, that while he executed the priest's office before God in the order of his course,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.9">According to the custom of the priest's office, his lot was to burn incense when he went into the temple of the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.10">And the whole multitude of the people were praying outside at the time of incense.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.11">And there appeared unto him an angel of the Lord standing on the right side of the altar of incense.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.12">And when Zacharias saw him, he was troubled, and fear fell upon him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.13">But the angel said unto him, Fear not, Zacharias: for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elisabeth shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.14">And you shall have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.15">For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.16">And many of the children of Israel shall he turn to the Lord their God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.17">And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.18">And Zacharias said unto the angel, How shall I know this? for I am an old man, and my wife well advanced in years.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.19">And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto you, and to show you these glad tidings.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.20">And, behold, you shall be dumb, and not able to speak, until the day that these things shall be performed, because you believe not my words, which shall be fulfilled in their appropriate time.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.21">And the people waited for Zacharias, and wondered why he tarried so long in the temple.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.22">And when he came out, he could not speak unto them: and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple: for he beckoned unto them, and remained speechless.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.23">And it came to pass, that, as soon as the days of his ministration were accomplished, he departed to his own house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.24">And after those days his wife Elisabeth conceived, and hid herself five months, saying,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.25">Thus has the Lord dealt with me in the days in which he looked on me, to take away my reproach among men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.26">And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.27">To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.28">And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, you that are highly favored, the Lord is with you: blessed are you among women.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.29">And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.30">And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for you have found favor with God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.31">And, behold, you shall conceive in your womb, and bring forth a son, and shall call his name JESUS.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.32">He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.33">And he shall reign over the house of Jacob forever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.34">Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.35">And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon you, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow you: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of you shall be called the Son of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.36">And, behold, your cousin Elisabeth, she has also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.37">For with God nothing shall be impossible.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.38">And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to your word. And the angel departed from her.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.39">And Mary arose in those days, and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Juda;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.40">And entered into the house of Zacharias, and saluted Elisabeth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.41">And it came to pass, that, when Elisabeth heard the salutation of Mary, the babe leaped in her womb; and Elisabeth was filled with the Holy Ghost:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.42">And she spoke out with a loud voice, and said, Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.43">And why is this to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.44">For, lo, as soon as the voice of your salutation sounded in my ears, the babe leaped in my womb for joy.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.45">And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.46">And Mary said, My soul does magnify the Lord,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.47">And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Saviour.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.48">For he has regarded the low estate of his handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all generations shall call me blessed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.49">For he that is mighty has done to me great things; and holy is his name.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.50">And his mercy is on them that fear him from generation to generation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.51">He has showed strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.52">He has put down the mighty from their seats, and exalted them of low degree.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.53">He has filled the hungry with good things; and the rich he has sent empty away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.54">He has helped his servant Israel, in remembrance of his mercy;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.55">As he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham, and to his seed forever.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.56">And Mary abode with her about three months, and returned to her own house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.57">Now Elisabeth's full time came that she should be delivered; and she brought forth a son.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.58">And her neighbors and her cousins heard how the Lord had showed great mercy upon her; and they rejoiced with her.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.59">And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.60">And his mother answered and said, Not so; but he shall be called John.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.61">And they said unto her, There is none of your kindred that is called by this name.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.62">And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.63">And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, His name is John. And they marvelled all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.64">And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spoke, and praised God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.65">And fear came on all that dwelled round about them: and all these sayings were reported abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.66">And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, What manner of child shall this be! And the hand of the Lord was with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.67">And his father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Ghost, and prophesied, saying,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.68">Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he has visited and redeemed his people,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.69">And has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.70">As he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.71">That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.72">To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.73">The oath which he helped to our father Abraham,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.74">That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.75">In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.76">And you, child, shall be called the prophet of the Highest: for you shall go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.77">To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.78">Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high has visited us,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.79">To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.1.80">And the child grew, and grew strong in spirit, and was in the deserted places till the day of his appearance unto Israel.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.2.1">And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.2.2">(And this registration was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.2.3">And all went to be registered, every one into his own city.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.2.4">And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.2.5">To be registered with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Luke.2.6">And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.2.7">And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.2.8">And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.2.9">And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were intensely afraid.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.1">And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from the Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.2">Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.3">And the devil said unto him, If you be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.4">And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.5">And the devil, taking him up into a high mountain, showed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.6">And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give you, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.7">If you therefore will worship me, all shall be yours.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.8">And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get you behind me, Satan: for it is written, You shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.9">And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If you be the Son of God, cast yourself down from here:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.10">For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over you, to keep you:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.11">And in their hands they shall bear you up, lest at any time you dash your foot against a stone.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Luke.4.12">And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, You shall not tempt the Lord your God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.13">And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a time.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.14">And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.15">And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.16">And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up to read.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.17">And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.18">The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.19">To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.20">And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.21">And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.22">And all bore him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.23">And he said unto them, You will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal yourself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in your country.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.24">And he said, Truthfully I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.25">But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.26">But unto none of them was Elijah sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.27">And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.28">And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.29">And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.30">But he passing through the midst of them went his way,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.31">And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.32">And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.33">And in the synagogue there was a man, which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.34">Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with you, you Jesus of Nazareth? are you come to destroy us? I know you who you are; the Holy One of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.35">And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold your peace, and come out of him. And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out of him, and hurt him not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.36">And they were all amazed, and spoke among themselves, saying, What a word is this! for with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.37">And the fame of him went out into every place of the country round about.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.38">And he arose out of the synagogue, and entered into Simon's house. And Simon's wife's mother was taken with a great fever; and they sought him for her.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.39">And he stood over her, and rebuked the fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.40">Now when the sun was setting, all they that had any sick with different diseases brought them unto him; and he laid his hands on every one of them, and healed them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.41">And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, You are Christ the Son of God. And he rebuking them permitted them not to speak: for they knew that he was Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.42">And when it was day, he departed and went into a deserted place: and the people sought him, and came unto him, and restrained him, that he should not depart from them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.43">And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.4.44">And he preached in the synagogues of Galilee.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Luke.4.44">
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.1">And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.2">And saw two boats standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.3">And he entered into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the boat.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.4">Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a drawing of fish.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.5">And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at your word I will let down the net.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.6">And when they had this done, they enclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net broke.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.7">And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other boat, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.8">When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.9">For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the drawing of the fishes which they had taken:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.10">And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from now on you shall catch men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.11">And when they had brought their boats to land, they forsook all, and followed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.12">And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and sought him, saying, Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.13">And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be you clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.14">And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and show yourself to the priest, and offer for your cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.15">But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.16">And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.17">And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.18">And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.19">And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.20">And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, your sins are forgiven you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.21">And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, Who is this which speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.22">But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, he answering said unto them, What reason you in your hearts?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.23">Which is easier, to say, Your sins be forgiven you; or to say, Rise up and walk?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.24">But that you may know that the Son of man has power upon earth to forgive sins, (he said unto the sick of the palsy,) I say unto you, Arise, and take up your couch, and go into your house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.25">And immediately he rose up before them, and took up that whereon he lay, and departed to his own house, glorifying God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.26">And they were all amazed, and they glorified God, and were filled with fear, saying, We have seen strange things today.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.27">And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.28">And he left all, rose up, and followed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.29">And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.30">But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do you eat and drink with publicans and sinners?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.31">And Jesus answering said unto them, They that are whole need not a physician; but they that are sick.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.32">I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.33">And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but yours eat and drink?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.34">And he said unto them, Can you make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.35">But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.36">And he spoke also a parable unto them; No man puts a piece of a new garment upon an old; or else, then the new makes a tear, and the piece that was taken out of the new does not agree with the old.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.37">And no man puts new wine into old bottles; else the new wine will burst the bottles, and be spilled, and the bottles shall perish.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.38">But new wine must be put into new bottles; and both are preserved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.5.39">No man also having drunk old wine immediately desires new: for he says, The old is better.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.6.2">And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, Why do you that which is not lawful to do on the sabbath days?</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Luke.6.3">And Jesus answering them said, Have you not read so much as this, what David did, when himself was hungry, and they which were with him;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.6.4">How he went into the house of God, and did take and eat the showbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat but for the priests alone?</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.6.10">And looking round about upon them all, he said unto the man, Stretch forth your hand. And he did so: and his hand was restored whole as the other.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.6.42">Either how can you say to your brother, Brother, let me pull out the speck that is in your eye, when you yourself behold not the beam that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of your own eye, and then shall you see clearly to pull out the speck that is in your brother's eye.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.6.43">For a good tree does not bring forth corrupt fruit; neither does a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.</verse>
|

|
<verse osisID="Luke.6.45">A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Luke.6.46">And why call you me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.6.47">Whosoever comes to me, and hears my sayings, and does them, I will show you to whom he is like:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.6.48">He is like a man which built a house, and dug deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.6.49">But he that hears, and does not, is like a man that without a foundation built a house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.7.4">And when they came to Jesus, they sought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.7.5">For he loves our nation, and he has built us a synagogue.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.7.6">Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not yourself: for I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof:</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.7.22">Then Jesus answering said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things you have seen and heard; that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the gospel is preached.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Luke.7.23">And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.7.24">And when the messengers of John were departed, he began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went you out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind?</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.7.29">And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.7.30">But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.7.40">And Jesus answering said unto him, Simon, I have somewhat to say unto you. And he says, Master, say on.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.7.44">And he turned to the woman, and said unto Simon, See you this woman? I entered into your house, you gave me no water for my feet: but she has washed my feet with tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.7.45">You gave me no kiss: but this woman since the time I came in has not ceased to kiss my feet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.7.46">My head with oil you did not anoint: but this woman has anointed my feet with ointment.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.1">And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and showing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.2">And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.8.3">And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.4">And when many people were gathered together, and had come to him out of every city, he spoke by a parable:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.5">A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the wayside; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.6">And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.7">And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.8">And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bore fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that has ears to hear, let him hear.</verse>
|

|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.9">And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.10">And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.11">Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.12">Those by the wayside are they that hear; then comes the devil, and takes away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.13">They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.14">And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.15">But that on the good ground are they, which in a honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.16">No man, when he has lighted a candle, covers it with a vessel, or puts it under a bed; but sets it on a candlestick, that they which enter in may see the light.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.8.28">When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of God most high? I beseech you, torment me not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.29">(For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he broke the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Luke.8.30">And Jesus asked him, saying, What is your name? And he said, Legion: because many devils were entered into him.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.8.34">When they that fed them saw what was done, they fled, and went and told it in the city and in the country.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.35">Then they went out to see what was done; and came to Jesus, and found the man, out of whom the devils were departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.8.36">They also which saw it told them by what means he that was possessed of the devils was healed.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Luke.8.39">Return to your own house, and show what great things God has done unto you. And he went his way, and announced throughout the whole city what great things Jesus had done unto him.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.9.28">And it came to pass about an eight days after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James, and went up into a mountain to pray.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.29">And as he prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his clothing was white and glistening.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.30">And, behold, there talked with him two men, which were Moses and Elijah:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.31">Who appeared in glory, and spoke of his decease which he should accomplish at Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.32">But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.33">And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah: not knowing what he said.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.34">While he thus spoke, there came a cloud, and overshadowed them: and they feared as they entered into the cloud.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.35">And there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.36">And when the voice was past, Jesus was found alone. And they kept it close, and told no man in those days any of those things which they had seen.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.37">And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they had come down from the hill, many people met him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.38">And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech you, look upon my son: for he is my only child.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.39">And, lo, a spirit takes him, and he suddenly cries out; and it tears him that he foams again, and bruising him hardly departs from him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.40">And I asked your disciples to cast him out; and they could not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.41">And Jesus answering said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you, and tolerate you? Bring your son to here.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.42">And as he was yet a coming, the devil threw him down, and tare him. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the child, and delivered him again to his father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.43">And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.44">Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.45">But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.46">Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.47">And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.48">And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receives me: and whosoever shall receive me receives him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.49">And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in your name; and we forbad him, because he follows not with us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.50">And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against us is for us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.51">And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.52">And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.53">And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.54">And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, will you that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, just as Elijah did?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.55">But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, You know not what manner of spirit you are of.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.56">For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.57">And it came to pass, that, as they went on the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow you wherever you go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.58">And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.59">And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.60">Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go you and preach the kingdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.61">And another also said, Lord, I will follow you; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.9.62">And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.14">But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.15">And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.16">Then came the first, saying, Lord, your pound has gained ten pounds.</verse>
|
|

|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.17">And he said unto him, Well, you good servant: because you have been faithful in a very little, have you authority over ten cities.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.18">And the second came, saying, Lord, your pound has gained five pounds.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.19">And he said likewise to him, Be you also over five cities.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Luke.19.20">And another came, saying, Lord, behold, here is your pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.21">For I feared you, because you are an austere man: you take up that which you did not lay down, and reap that which you did not sow.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.22">And he says unto him, Out of your own mouth will I judge you, you wicked servant. You knew that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.23">Why then did you not give my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required my own with interest?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.24">And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give it to him that has ten pounds.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.25">(And they said unto him, Lord, he has ten pounds.)</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.28">And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.29">And it came to pass, when he was come close to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.30">Saying, Go you into the village over against you; in the which at your entering you shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him to here.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.31">And if any man ask you, Why do you loose him? thus shall you say unto him, Because the Lord has need of him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.32">And they that were sent went their way, and found just as he had said unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.33">And as they were loosing the colt, the owners of it said unto them, Why loose you the colt?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.34">And they said, The Lord has need of him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.35">And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.36">And as he went, they spread their clothes on the way.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.37">And when he was come close, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen;</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.38">Saying, Blessed be the King that comes in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.39">And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke your disciples.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.40">And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.19.41">And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.42">Saying, If you had known, even you, at least in this your day, the things which belong unto your peace! but now they are hid from your eyes.</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.19.43">For the days shall come upon you, that your enemies shall cast a trench about you, and compass you round, and keep you in on every side,</verse>

<chapter osisID="Luke.19.48">
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.1">And it came to pass, that on one of those days, as he taught the people in the temple, and preached the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes came upon him with the elders,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.2">And spoke unto him, saying, Tell us, by what authority are you doing these things? or who is he that gave you this authority?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.3">And he answered and said unto them, I will also ask you one thing; and answer me:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.4">The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or of men?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.5">And they reasoned with themselves, saying, If we shall say, From heaven; he will say, Why then believed you him not?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.6">But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they are persuaded that John was a prophet.</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.7">And they answered, that they could not tell from where it was.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.8">And Jesus said unto them, Neither tell I you by what authority I do these things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.9">Then began he to speak to the people this parable; A certain man planted a vineyard, and let it forth to husbandmen, and went into a far country for a long time.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.10">And at the appropriate time he sent a servant to the husbandmen, that t should give him of the fruit of the vineyard: but the husbandmen beat him, and sent him away empty.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.11">And again he sent another servant: and they beat him also, and treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.12">And again he sent a third: and they wounded him also, and cast him out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.13">Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will respect him when they see him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.14">But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.15">So they cast him out of the vineyard, and killed him. What therefore shall the lord of the vineyard do unto them?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.16">He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard it, they said, God forbid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.17">And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.18">Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.19">And the chief priests and the scribes the same hour sought to lay hands on him; and they feared the people: for they perceived that he had spoken this parable against them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.20">And they watched him, and sent forth spies, which should feign themselves just men, that they might take hold of his words, that so they might deliver him unto the power and authority of the governor.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.21">And they asked him, saying, Master, we know that you say and teach rightly, neither accept you the person of any, but teach the way of God truly:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.22">Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar, or no?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.23">But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them, Why tempt you me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.24">Show me a denarius. Whose image and superscription has it? They answered and said, Caesar's.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.25">And he said unto them, Render therefore unto Caesar the things which be Caesar's, and unto God the things which be God's.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.26">And they could not take hold of his words before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.27">Then came to him certain of the Sadducees, which deny that there is any resurrection; and they asked him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.28">Saying, Master, Moses wrote unto us, If any man's brother die, having a wife, and he die without children, that his brother should take his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.29">There were therefore seven brothers: and the first took a wife, and died without children.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.30">And the second took her to wife, and he died childless.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.31">And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.32">Last of all the woman died also.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.33">Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.34">And Jesus answering said unto them, The children of this world marry, and are given in marriage:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.35">But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.36">Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.37">Now that the dead are raised, even Moses showed at the bush, when he calls the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.38">For he is not a God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.39">Then certain of the scribes answering said, Master, you have well said.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.40">And after that they dared not ask him any question at all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.41">And he said unto them, How say they that Christ is David's son?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.42">And David himself says in the book of Psalms, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit you on my right hand,</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.20.43">Till I make your enemies your footstool.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Luke.20.44">David therefore calls him Lord, how is he then his son?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.45">Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.20.46">Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;</verse>

<verse osisID="Luke.22.28">You are they which have continued with me in my temptations.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.29">And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father has appointed unto me;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.30">That you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.31">And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.32">But I have prayed for you, that your faith fail not: and when you are converted, strengthen your brothers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.33">And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with you, both into prison, and to death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.34">And he said, I tell you, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that you shall three times deny that you know me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.35">And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked you any thing? And they said, Nothing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.36">Then said he unto them, But now, he that has a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that has no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.37">For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.38">And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.39">And he came out, and went, as he was accustomed, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.40">And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that you enter not into temptation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.41">And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.42">Saying, Father, if you be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but your, be done.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.43">And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.44">And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.45">And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.46">And said unto them, Why sleep you? rise and pray, lest you enter into temptation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.47">And while he yet spoke, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.48">But Jesus said unto him, Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.49">When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.50">And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.51">And Jesus answered and said, Permit this much. And he touched his ear, and healed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.52">Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which had come to him, Be you come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.53">When I was with you each day in the temple, you stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.54">Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.55">And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.56">But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.57">And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.58">And after a little while another saw him, and said, You are also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.59">And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.60">And Peter said, Man, I do not know what you say. And immediately, while he yet spoke, the cock crowed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.61">And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crows, you shall deny me three times.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.62">And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.63">And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.64">And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.65">And many other things blasphemously spoke they against him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.66">And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.67">Are you the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, you will not believe:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.68">And if I also ask you, you will not answer me, nor let me go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.69">Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.70">Then said they all, Are you then the Son of God? And he said unto them, You say that I am.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.22.71">And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Luke.22.71">
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.1">And the whole multitude of them arose, and led him unto Pilate.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.2">And they began to accuse him, saying, We found this fellow perverting the nation, and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar, saying that he himself is Christ a King.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.3">And Pilate asked him, saying, Are you the King of the Jews? And he answered him and said, You say it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.4">Then said Pilate to the chief priests and to the people, I find no fault in this man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.5">And they were the more fierce, saying, He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Jewry, beginning from Galilee to this place.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.6">When Pilate heard of Galilee, he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.7">And as soon as he knew that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction, he sent him to Herod, who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.8">And when Herod saw Jesus, he was exceedingly glad: for had desired to see him for a long time, because he had heard many things of him; and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.9">Then he questioned with him in many words; but he answered him nothing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.10">And the chief priests and scribes stood and vehemently accused him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.11">And Herod with his men of war treated him with contempt, and mocked him and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.12">And the same day Pilate and Herod were made friends together: for before they were at enmity between themselves.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.13">And Pilate, when he had called together the chief priests and the rulers and the people,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.14">Said unto them, You have brought this man unto me, as one that perverts the people: and, behold, I, having examined him before you, have found no fault in this man touching those things whereof you accuse him:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.15">No, nor yet Herod: for I sent you to him; and, lo, nothing worthy of death is done unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.16">I will therefore chastise him, and release him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.17">(For of necessity he must release one unto them at the feast.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.18">And they cried out all at once, saying, Away with this man, and release unto us Barabbas:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.19">(Who for a certain sedition made in the city, and for murder, was cast into prison.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.20">Pilate therefore, willing to release Jesus, spoke again to them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.21">But they cried, saying, Crucify him, crucify him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.22">And he said unto them the third time, Why, what evil has he done? I have found no cause of death in him: I will therefore chastise him, and let him go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.23">And they were instant with loud voices, requiring that he might be crucified. And the voices of them and of the chief priests prevailed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.24">And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.25">And he released unto them him that for sedition and murder was cast into prison, whom they had desired; but he delivered Jesus to their will.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.26">And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear it after Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.27">And there followed him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.28">But Jesus turning unto them said, Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me, but weep for yourselves, and for your children.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.29">For, behold, the days are coming, in which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bore, and the paps which never gave suck.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.30">Then shall they begin to say to the mountains, Fall on us; and to the hills, Cover us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.31">For if they do these things in a green tree, what shall be done in the dry?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.32">And there were also two other, malefactors, led with him to be put to death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.33">And when they had come to the place, which is called Calvary, there they crucified him, and the malefactors, one on the right hand, and the other on the left.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.34">Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his clothing, and cast lots.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.35">And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.36">And the soldiers also mocked him, coming to him, and offering him vinegar,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.37">And saying, If you be the king of the Jews, save yourself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.38">And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek, and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.39">And one of the malefactors which were hanged railed on him, saying, If you be Christ, save yourself and us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.40">But the other answering rebuked him, saying, Do not you fear God, seeing you are in the same condemnation?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.41">And we indeed justly; for we receive the due reward of our deeds: but this man has done nothing amiss.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.42">And he said unto Jesus, Lord, remember me when you come into your kingdom.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.43">And Jesus said unto him, Truthfully I say unto you, Today shall you be with me in paradise.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.44">And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.45">And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was tore in the midst.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.46">And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into your hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.47">Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.48">And all the people that came together to that sight, beholding the things which were done, smote their breasts, and returned.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.49">And all his acquaintance, and the women that followed him from Galilee, stood afar off, beholding these things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.50">And, behold, there was a man named Joseph, a counselor; and he was a good man, and a just:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.51">(The same had not consented to the counsel and deed of them;) he was of Arimathaea, a city of the Jews: who also himself waited for the kingdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.52">This man went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.53">And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulcher that was hewn in stone, in which never man before was laid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.54">And that day was the preparation, and the sabbath drew on.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.55">And the women also, which came with him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulcher, and how his body was laid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.23.56">And they returned, and prepared spices and ointments; and rested the sabbath day according to the commandment.</verse>

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Luke.23.56">
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.1">Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulcher, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.2">And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulcher.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.3">And they entered in, and found not the body of the Lord Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.4">And it came to pass, as they were much perplexed thereabout, behold, two men stood by them in shining garments:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.5">And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek you the living among the dead?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.6">He is not here, but is risen: remember how he spoke unto you when he was yet in Galilee,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.7">Saying, The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.8">And they remembered his words,</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.9">And returned from the sepulcher, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.10">It was Mary Magdalene and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, which told these things unto the apostles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.11">And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.12">Then arose Peter, and ran unto the sepulcher; and stooping down, he beheld the linen clothes laid by themselves, and departed, wondering in himself at that which was come to pass.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.13">And, behold, two of them went that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.14">And they talked together of all these things which had happened.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.15">And it came to pass, that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.16">But their eyes were held back that they should not know him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.17">And he said unto them, What manner of communications are these that you have one to another, as you walk, and are sad?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.18">And the one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answering said unto him, Are you only a stranger in Jerusalem, and have not known the things which are come to pass there in these days?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.19">And he said unto them, What things? And they said unto him, Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, which was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.20">And how the chief priests and our rulers delivered him to be condemned to death, and have crucified him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.21">But we trusted that it had been he which should have redeemed Israel: and beside all this, today is the third day since these things were done.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.22">Yes, and certain women also of our company made us astonished, which were early at the sepulcher;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.23">And when they found not his body, they came, saying, that they had also seen a vision of angels, which said that he was alive.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.24">And certain of those who were with us went to the sepulcher, and found it even so as the women had said: but him they saw not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.25">Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.26">Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.27">And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.28">And they drew close unto the village, to where they went: and he made as though he would have gone further.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.29">But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.30">And it came to pass, as he sat at food with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and broke, and gave to them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.31">And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.32">And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.33">And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.34">Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.35">And they told what things were done on the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.36">And as they thus spoke, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and says unto them, Peace be unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.37">But they were terrified and frightened, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.38">And he said unto them, Why are you troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.39">Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit has not flesh and bones, as you see me have.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.40">And when he had thus spoken, he showed them his hands and his feet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.41">And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have you here any food?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.42">And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of a honeycomb.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.43">And he took it, and did eat before them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.44">And he said unto them, These are the words which I spoke unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.45">Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.46">And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it was proper for Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.47">And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Luke.24.48">And you are witnesses of these things.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Luke.24.53">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.1">In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.2">The same was in the beginning with God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.3">All things were made by him; and outside him was not any thing made that was made.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.4">In him was life; and the life was the light of men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.5">And the light shines in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.6">There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.7">The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through him might believe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.8">He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.9">That was the true Light, which lights every man that comes into the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.10">He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.11">He came unto his own, and his own received him not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.12">But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.13">Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.14">And the Word was made flesh, and dwelled among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.15">John bore witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spoke, He that comes after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.16">And of his fullness have all we received, and grace for grace.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.17">For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.18">No man has seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.19">And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who are you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.20">And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.21">And they asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he says, I am not. Are you that prophet? And he answered, No.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.22">Then said they unto him, Who are you? that we may give an answer to them that sent us. What say you of yourself?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.23">He said, I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Isaiah.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.24">And they which were sent were of the Pharisees.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.25">And they asked him, and said unto him, Why do you baptize then, if you be not that Christ, nor Elijah, neither that prophet?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.26">John answered them, saying, I baptize with water: but there stands one among you, whom you know not;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.27">He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.28">These things were done in Bethabara beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.29">The next day John sees Jesus coming unto him, and says, Behold the Lamb of God, which takes away the sin of the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.30">This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.31">And I knew him not: but that he should be made manifest to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.32">And John bore record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.33">And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom you shall see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizes with the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.34">And I saw, and bore record that this is the Son of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.35">Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.36">And looking upon Jesus as he walked, he says, Behold the Lamb of God!</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.37">And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.38">Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and says unto them, What do you seek? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where do you dwell?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.39">He says unto them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelled, and abode with him that day: for it was about the tenth hour.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.40">One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.41">He first finds his own brother Simon, and says unto him, We have found the Messias, which is, being interpreted, the Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.42">And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, You are Simon the son of Jona: you shall be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.43">The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and finds Philip, and says unto him, Follow me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.44">Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.45">Philip finds Nathanael, and says unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.46">And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip says unto him, Come and see.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.47">Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and says of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.48">Nathanael says unto him, >From where know you me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.49">Nathanael answered and says unto him, Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the King of Israel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.50">Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said unto you, I saw you under the fig tree, you believe? you shall see greater things than these.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.1.51">And he says unto him, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, Hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.</verse>

<chapter osisID="John.1.51">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.1">And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.2">And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.3">And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus says unto him, They have no wine.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.4">Jesus says unto her, Woman, what have I to do with you? my hour is not yet come.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.5">His mother says unto the servants, Whatsoever he says unto you, do it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.6">And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons each.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.7">Jesus says unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.8">And he says unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bore it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.9">When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know from where it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.10">And says unto him, Every man at the beginning does set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but you have kept the good wine until now.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.11">This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.12">After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brothers, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.13">And the Jews' passover was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.14">And found in the temple those that sold oxen and sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.15">And when he had made a whip of small cords, he drove them all out of the temple, and the sheep, and the oxen; and poured out the changers' money, and overthrew the tables;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.16">And said unto them that sold doves, Take these things hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.17">And his disciples remembered that it was written, The zeal of your house has eaten me up.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.18">Then answered the Jews and said unto him, What sign do you show unto us, seeing that you are doing these things?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.19">Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.20">Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and will you rear it up in three days?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.21">But he spoke of the temple of his body.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.22">When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Jesus had said.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.23">Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.24">But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.2.25">And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.</verse>
|

|
|
<chapter osisID="John.2.25">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.1">There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.2">The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that you are doing, unless God be with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.3">Jesus answered and said unto him, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, Unless a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.4">Nicodemus says unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.5">Jesus answered, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, Unless a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.6">That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.7">Marvel not that I said unto you, You must be born again.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.8">The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell from where it comes, and to where it goes: so is every one that is born of the Spirit.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.9">Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.10">Jesus answered and said unto him, Are you a master of Israel, and know not these things?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.11">Truthfully, Truthfully, I say unto you, We speak what we do know, and testify what we have seen; and you receive not our witness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.12">If I have told you earthly things, and you believe not, how shall you believe, if I tell you of heavenly things?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.13">And no man has ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.14">And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.15">That whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.16">For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.17">For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.18">He that believes on him is not condemned: but he that believes not is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.19">And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.20">For every one that does evil hates the light, neither comes to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.21">But he that does truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.22">After these things came Jesus and his disciples into the land of Judaea; and there he tarried with them, and baptized.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.23">And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.24">For John was not yet cast into prison.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.25">Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.26">And they came unto John, and said unto him, Rabbi, he that was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you bore witness, behold, the same baptizes, and all men come to him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.27">John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, unless it be given him from heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.28">You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, I am not the Christ, but that I am sent before him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.29">He that has the bride is the bridegroom: but the friend of the bridegroom, which stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice: this my joy therefore is fulfilled.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.30">He must increase, but I must decrease.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.31">He that comes from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaks of the earth: he that comes from heaven is above all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.32">And what he has seen and heard, that he testifies; and no man receives his testimony.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.33">He that has received his testimony has set to his seal that God is true.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.34">For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God: for God gives not the Spirit by measure unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.35">The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.3.36">He that believes on the Son has everlasting life: and he that believes not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abides on him.</verse>
|

</chapter>

|
<chapter osisID="John.3.36">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.1">When therefore the LORD knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.2">(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.3">He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.4">And he must needs go through Samaria.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.5">Then comes he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.6">Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.7">There comes a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus says unto her, Give me to drink.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.8">(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy food.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.9">Then says the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that you, being a Jew, ask drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.10">Jesus answered and said unto her, If you knew the gift of God, and who it is that says to you, Give me to drink; you would have asked of him, and he would have given you living water.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.11">The woman says unto him, Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from where then have you that living water?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.12">Are you greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank of it himself, and his children, and his cattle?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.13">Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinks of this water shall thirst again:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.14">But whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.15">The woman says unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come to here to draw.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.16">Jesus says unto her, Go, call your husband, and come to here.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.17">The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, You have well said, I have no husband:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.18">For you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband: in that said you truly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.19">The woman says unto him, Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.20">Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and you say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.21">Jesus says unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when you shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.22">You worship you know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.23">But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeks such to worship him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.24">God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.25">The woman says unto him, I know that Messias comes, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.26">Jesus says unto her, I that speak unto you am he.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.27">And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What do you seek? or, Why do you talk with her?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.28">The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and says to the men,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.29">Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.30">Then they went out of the city, and came unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.31">In the meanwhile his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.32">But he said unto them, I have food to eat that you know not of.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.33">Therefore said the disciples one to another, Has any man brought him anything to eat?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.34">Jesus says unto them, My food is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.35">Do you not say, There are yet four months, and then comes harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.</verse>

<verse osisID="John.4.36">And he that reaps receives wages, and scatters fruit unto life eternal: that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.37">And herein is that saying true, One sows, and another reaps.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.38">I sent you to reap that whereon you bestowed no labor: other men labored, and you are entered into their labors.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.39">And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.40">So when the Samaritans had come unto him, they asked him that he would tarry with them: and he abode there two days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.41">And many more believed because of his own word;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.42">And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of your saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.43">Now after two days he departed from there, and went into Galilee.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.44">For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet has no honor in his own country.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.45">Then when he was come into Galilee, the Galilaeans received him, having seen all the things that he did at Jerusalem at the feast: for they also went unto the feast.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.46">So Jesus came again into Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.47">When he heard that Jesus was come out of Judaea into Galilee, he went unto him, and asked him that he would come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.48">Then said Jesus unto him, Unless you see signs and wonders, you will not believe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.49">The nobleman says unto him, Sir, come down before my child dies.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.50">Jesus says unto him, Go your way; your son lives. And the man believed the word that Jesus had spoken unto him, and he went his way.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.51">And as he was now going down, his servants met him, and told him, saying, Your son lives.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.52">Then inquired he of them the hour when he began to get well. And they said unto him, yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.53">So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in which Jesus said unto him, Your son lives: and himself believed, and his whole house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.4.54">This is again the second miracle that Jesus did, when he was come out of Judaea into Galilee.</verse>

<chapter osisID="John.4.54">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.1">After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.2">Now there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market a pool, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Bethesda, having five porches.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.3">In these lay a great multitude of sick people, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.4">For an angel went down at a certain time into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.5">And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.6">When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he says unto him, Do you want be made whole?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.7">The sick man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steps down before me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.8">Jesus says unto him, Rise, take up your bed, and walk.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.9">And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.10">The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for you to carry your bed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.11">He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up your bed, and walk.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.12">Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto you, Take up your bed, and walk?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.13">And he that was healed knew not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.14">Afterward Jesus finds him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, you are made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.15">The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.16">And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.17">But Jesus answered them, My Father works until now, and I work.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.18">Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.19">Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do: for what things soever he does, these also does the Son likewise.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.20">For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things that himself does: and he will show him greater works than these, that you may marvel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.21">For as the Father raises up the dead, and gives life to them; even so the Son gives life to whom he will.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.22">For the Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment unto the Son:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.23">That all men should honor the Son, just as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son honors not the Father which has sent him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.24">Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, He that hears my word, and believes on him that sent me, has everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.25">Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.26">For as the Father has life in himself; so has he given to the Son to have life in himself;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.27">And has given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.28">Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.29">And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.30">I can of my own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not my own will, but the will of the Father which has sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.31">If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.32">There is another that bears witness of me; and I know that the witness which he witnesses of me is true.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.33">You sent unto John, and he bore witness unto the truth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.34">But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that you might be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.35">He was a burning and a shining light: and you were willing for a season to rejoice in his light.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.36">But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works which the Father has given me to finish, the same works that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father has sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.37">And the Father himself, which has sent me, has borne witness of me. You have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.38">And you have not his word abiding in you: for whom he has sent, him you believe not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.39">Search the scriptures; for in them you think you have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.40">And you will not come to me, that you might have life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.41">I receive not honor from men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.42">But I know you, that you have not the love of God in you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.43">I am come in my Father's name, and you receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.44">How can you believe, which receive honor one of another, and seek not the honor that comes from God only?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.45">Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuses you, even Moses, in whom you trust.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.46">For had you believed Moses, you would have believed me; for he wrote of me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.5.47">But if you believe not his writings, how shall you believe my words?</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.1">After these things Jesus went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.2">And a great multitude followed him, because they saw his miracles which he did on them that were diseased.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.3">And Jesus went up into a mountain, and there he sat with his disciples.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.4">And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was close.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.5">When Jesus then lifted up his eyes, and saw a great company come unto him, he says unto Philip, From where shall we buy bread, that these may eat?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.6">And this he said to prove him: for he himself knew what he would do.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.7">Philip answered him, Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not sufficient for them, that every one of them may take a little.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.8">One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says unto him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.9">There is a lad here, which has five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.10">And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.11">And Jesus took the loaves; and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes as much as they would.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.12">When they were filled, he said unto his disciples, Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.13">Therefore they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.14">Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.15">When Jesus therefore perceived that they would come and take him by force, to make him a king, he departed again into a mountain himself alone.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.16">And when even was now come, his disciples went down unto the sea,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.17">And entered into a boat, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And it was now dark, and Jesus was not come to them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.18">And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.19">So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing close unto the boat: and they were afraid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.20">But he says unto them, It is I; be not afraid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.21">Then they willingly received him into the boat: and immediately the boat was at the land to where they went.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.22">The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, except that one into which his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.23">(Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias close unto the place where they did eat bread, after the Lord had given thanks:)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.24">When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.25">And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when came you to here?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.26">Jesus answered them and said, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, You seek me, not because you saw the miracles, but because you did eat of the loaves, and were filled.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.27">Labor not for the food which perishes, but for that food which endures unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him has God the Father sealed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.28">Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.29">Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that you believe on him whom he has sent.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.30">They said therefore unto him, What sign do you show then, that we may see, and believe you? what do you work?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.31">Our fathers did eat manna in the desert; as it is written, He gave them bread from heaven to eat.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.32">Then Jesus said unto them, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father gives you the true bread from heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.33">For the bread of God is he which comes down from heaven, and gives life unto the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.34">Then said they unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.35">And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that comes to me shall never hunger; and he that believes on me shall never thirst.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.36">But I said unto you, That you also have seen me, and believe not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.37">All that the Father gives me shall come to me; and him that comes to me I will in no way cast out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.38">For I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.39">And this is the Father's will which has sent me, that of all which he has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.40">And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which sees the Son, and believes on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.41">The Jews then murmured at him, because he said, I am the bread which came down from heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.42">And they said, Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how is it then that he says, I came down from heaven?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.43">Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.44">No man can come to me, unless the Father which has sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.45">It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that has heard, and has learned of the Father, comes unto me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.46">Not that any man has seen the Father, save he which is of God, he has seen the Father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.47">Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, He that believes on me has everlasting life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.48">I am that bread of life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.49">Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.50">This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it, and not die.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.51">I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.52">The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.53">Then Jesus said unto them, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, you have no life in you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.54">Whoso eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, has eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.55">For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.56">He that eats my flesh, and drinks my blood, dwells in me, and I in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.57">As the living Father has sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eats me, even he shall live by me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.58">This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eats of this bread shall live forever.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.59">These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.60">Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is a hard saying; who can hear it?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.61">When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Does this offend you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.62">What and if you shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.63">It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh profits nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.64">But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.65">And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, unless it were given unto him of my Father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.66">From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.67">Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will you also go away?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.68">Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? you have the words of eternal life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.69">And we believe and are sure that you are that Christ, the Son of the living God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.70">Jesus answered them, Have not I chosen you twelve, and one of you is a devil?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.6.71">He spoke of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon: for he it was that should betray him, being one of the twelve.</verse>

<verse osisID="John.7.14">Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.15">And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knows this man letters, having never learned?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.16">Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.17">If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.18">He that speaks of himself seeks his own glory: but he that seeks his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.19">Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why go you about to kill me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.20">The people answered and said, You have a devil: who goes about to kill you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.21">Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and you all marvel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.22">Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and you on the sabbath day circumcise a man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.23">If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are you angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.24">Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.25">Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.26">But, lo, he speaks boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.27">Howbeit we know this man from where he is: but when Christ comes, no man knows from where he is.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.28">Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, You both know me, and you know from where I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom you know not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.29">But I know him: for I am from him, and he has sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.30">Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.31">And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ comes, will he do more miracles than these which this man has done?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.32">The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.33">Then said Jesus unto them, yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.34">You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, to there you cannot come.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.35">Then said the Jews among themselves, To where will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.36">What manner of saying is this that he said, You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, to there you cannot come?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.37">In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.38">He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.39">(But this spoke he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because Jesus was not yet glorified.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.40">Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.41">Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.42">Has not the scripture said, That Christ comes of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.43">So there was a division among the people because of him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.44">And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.45">Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have you not brought him?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.46">The officers answered, Never man spoke like this man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.47">Then answered them the Pharisees, Are you also deceived?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.48">Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.49">But this people who knows not the law are cursed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.50">Nicodemus says unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.51">Does our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he does?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.52">They answered and said unto him, Are you also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee arises no prophet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.7.53">And every man went unto his own house.</verse>

<chapter osisID="John.7.53">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.1">Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.2">And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.3">And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.4">They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.5">Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what say you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.6">This they said, tempting him, that they might have something to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.7">So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone at her.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.8">And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.9">And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.10">When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those your accusers? has no man condemned you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.11">She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn you: go, and sin no more.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.12">Then spoke Jesus again unto 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.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.13">The Pharisees therefore said unto him, You bear record of yourself; your record is not true.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.14">Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know from where I came, and to where I go; but you cannot tell from where I come, and to where I go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.15">You judge after the flesh; I judge no man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.16">And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.17">It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.18">I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me bears witness of me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.19">Then said they unto him, Where is your Father? Jesus answered, you neither know me, nor my Father: if you had known me, you should have known my Father also.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.20">These words spoke Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.21">Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and you shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: to where I go, you cannot come.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.22">Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he says, To where I go, you cannot come.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.23">And he said unto them, You are from beneath; I am from above: you are of this world; I am not of this world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.24">I said therefore unto you, that you shall die in your sins: for if you believe not that I am he, you shall die in your sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.25">Then said they unto him, Who are you? And Jesus says unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.26">I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.27">They understood not that he spoke to them of the Father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.28">Then said Jesus unto them, When you have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father has taught me, I speak these things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.29">And he that sent me is with me: the Father has not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.30">As he spoke these words, many believed on him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.31">Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If you continue in my word, then are you my disciples indeed;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.32">And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.33">They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how say you, You shall be made free?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.34">Jesus answered them, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, Whosoever commits sin is the servant of sin.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.35">And the servant abides not in the house forever: but the Son abides ever.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.36">If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.37">I know that you are Abraham's seed; but you seek to kill me, because my word has no place in you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.38">I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do that which you have seen with your father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.39">They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus says unto them, If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.40">But now you seek to kill me, a man that has told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.41">You do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.42">Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, you would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.43">Why do you not understand my speech? even because you cannot hear my word.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.44">You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.45">And because I tell you the truth, you believe me not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.46">Which of you convinces me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do you not believe me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.47">He that is of God hears God's words: you therefore hear them not, because you are not of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.48">Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that you are a Samaritan, and have a devil?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.49">Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honor my Father, and you do dishonor me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.50">And I seek not my own glory: there is one that seeks and judges.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.51">Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shal never see death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.52">Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that you have a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and you say, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.53">Are you greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: who do you think you are?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.54">Jesus answered, If I honor myself, my honor is nothing: it is my Father that honors me; of whom you say, that he is your God:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.55">yet you have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.56">Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.57">Then said the Jews unto him, You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.58">Jesus said unto them, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.8.59">Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.</verse>

<chapter osisID="John.8.59">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.1">And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.2">And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.3">Jesus answered, Neither has this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.4">I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night comes, when no man can work.</verse>

<verse osisID="John.9.5">As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.6">When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.7">And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.8">The neighbors therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.9">Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.10">Therefore said they unto him, How were your eyes opened?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.11">He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed my eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.12">Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I do not know.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.13">They brought to the Pharisees him that previously was blind.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.14">And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.15">Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and do see.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.16">Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keeps not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.17">They say unto the blind man again, What say you of him, that he has opened your eyes? He said, He is a prophet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.18">But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.19">And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who you say was born blind? how then does he now see?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.20">His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.21">But by what means he now sees, we know not; or who has opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.22">These words spoke his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.23">Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.24">Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.25">He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I do not know: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.26">Then said they to him again, What did he to you? how opened he your eyes?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.27">He answered them, I have told you already, and you did not hear: why would you hear it again? will you also be his disciples?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.28">Then they reviled him, and said, You are his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="John.9.29">We know that God spoke unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from from where he is.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.30">The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvelous thing, that you know not from from where he is, and yet he has opened mine eyes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.31">Now we know that God hears not sinners: but if any man be a worshiper of God, and does his will, him he hears.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.32">Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.33">If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.34">They answered and said unto him, You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us? And they cast him out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.35">Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Do you believe on the Son of God?</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.36">He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.9.37">And Jesus said unto him, You have both seen him, and it is he that talks with you.</verse>

<verse osisID="John.9.38">And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="John.9.39">And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.</verse>

<verse osisID="John.9.40">And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?</verse>

<verse osisID="John.10.10">The thief comes not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.11">I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.12">But he that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep, and flees: and the wolf catches them, and scatters the sheep.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.13">The hireling flees, because he is a hireling, and cares not for the sheep.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.14">I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.15">As the Father knows me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.16">And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.17">Therefore does my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.18">No man takes it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.19">There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.20">And many of them said, He has a devil, and is mad; why hear you him?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.21">Others said, These are not the words of him that has a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.22">And it was at Jerusalem the feast of the dedication, and it was winter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.23">And Jesus walked in the temple in Solomon's porch.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.24">Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long do you make us to doubt? If you be the Christ, tell us plainly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.25">Jesus answered them, I told you, and you believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.26">But you believe not, because you are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.27">My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.28">And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.29">My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.30">I and my Father are one.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.31">Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.32">Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do you stone me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.33">The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone you not; but for blasphemy; and because you, being a man, make yourself God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.34">Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I said, you are gods?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.35">If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.36">Say you of him, whom the Father has sanctified, and sent into the world, You blaspheme; because I said, I am the Son of God?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.37">If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.38">But if I do, though you believe not me, believe the works: that you may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.39">Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.40">And went away again beyond the Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.41">And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spoke of this man were true.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.10.42">And many believed on him there.</verse>

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="John.10.42">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.1">Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.2">(It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.3">Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom you love is sick.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.4">When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.5">Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.6">When he had heard therefore that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.7">Then after that says he to his disciples, Let us go into Judaea again.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.8">His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone you; and you go to there again?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.9">Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbles not, because he sees the light of this world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.10">But if a man walk in the night, he stumbles, because there is no light in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.11">These things said he: and after that he says unto them, Our friend Lazarus sleeps; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.12">Then said his disciples, Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.13">Howbeit Jesus spoke of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.14">Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.15">And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent you may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.16">Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellow disciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.17">Then when Jesus came, he found that he had lain in the grave four days already.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.18">Now Bethany was close unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.19">And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary, to comfort them concerning their brother.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.20">Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.21">Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if you had been here, my brother had not died.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.22">But I know, that even now, whatsoever you will ask of God, God will give it you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.23">Jesus says unto her, Your brother shall rise again.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.24">Martha says unto him, I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.25">Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believes in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.26">And whosoever lives and believes in me shall never die. Believe you this?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.27">She says unto him, Yes, Lord: I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.28">And when she had so said, she went her way, and called Mary her sister secretly, saying, The Master is come, and calls for you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.29">As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly, and came unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.30">Now Jesus was not yet come into the town, but was in that place where Martha met him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.31">The Jews then which were with her in the house, and comforted her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up hastily and went out, followed her, saying, She goes unto the grave to weep there.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.32">Then when Mary was come where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying unto him, Lord, if you had been here, my brother had not died.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.33">When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.34">And said, Where have you laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.35">Jesus wept.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.36">Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.37">And some of them said, Could not this man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.38">Jesus therefore again groaning in himself comes to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.39">Jesus said, Take you away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, says unto him, Lord, by this time he stinks: for he has been dead four days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.40">Jesus says unto her, Said I not unto you, that, if you would believe, you should see the glory of God?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.41">Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank you that you have heard me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.42">And I knew that you hear me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that you have sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.43">And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.44">And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus says unto them, Loose him, and let him go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.45">Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.46">But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.47">Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man does many miracles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.48">If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.49">And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, You know nothing at all,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.50">Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.51">And this spoke he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.52">And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.53">Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.54">Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went from there unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.55">And the Jews' passover was close at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.56">Then sought they for Jesus, and spoke among themselves, as they stood in the temple, What think you, that he will not come to the feast?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.11.57">Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if any man knew where he were, he should show it, that they might take him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="John.11.57">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.1">Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.2">There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.3">Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.4">Then says one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.5">Why was not this ointment sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.6">This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bore what was put in it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.7">Then said Jesus, Let her alone: against the day of my burying has she kept this.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.8">For the poor always you have with you; but me you have not always.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.9">Much people of the Jews therefore knew that he was there: and they came not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.10">But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.11">Because that by reason of him many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.12">On the next day many people that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.13">Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that comes in the name of the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.14">And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.15">Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, your King comes, sitting on an ass's colt.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.16">These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.17">The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead, bore record.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.18">For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.19">The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive you how you prevail nothing? behold, the world is gone after him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.20">And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.21">The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.22">Philip comes and tells Andrew: and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.23">And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.24">Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, Unless a corn of wheat fall int the ground and die, it abides alone: but if it die, it brings forth much fruit.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.25">He that loves his life shall lose it; and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.26">If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honor.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.27">Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.28">Father, glorify your name. Then came there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.29">The people therefore, that stood by, and heard it, said that it thundered: others said, An angel spoke to him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.30">Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.31">Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.32">And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.33">This he said, signifying what death he should die.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.34">The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ abides forever: and how say you, The Son of man must be lifted up? who is this Son of man?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.35">Then Jesus said unto them, yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walks in darkness knows not to where he goes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.36">While you have light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things spoke Jesus, and departed, and did hide himself from them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.37">But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.38">That the saying of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Lord, who has believed our report? and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.39">Therefore they could not believe, because Isaiah said again,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.40">He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.41">These things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spoke of him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.42">Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.43">For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.44">Jesus cried and said, He that believes on me, believes not on me, but on him that sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.45">And he that sees me sees him that sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.46">I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believes on me should not abide in darkness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.47">And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.48">He that rejects me, and receives not my words, has one that judges him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.49">For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.12.50">And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, just as the Father said unto me, so I speak.</verse>

<chapter osisID="John.12.50">
|

<verse osisID="John.13.1">Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.</verse>

<verse osisID="John.13.9">Simon Peter says unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.10">Jesus says to him, He that is washed needs not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and you are clean, but not all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.11">For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, You are not all clean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.12">So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know you what I have done to you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.13">You call me Master and Lord: and you say well; for so I am.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.14">If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.15">For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.16">Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.17">If you know these things, happy are you if you do them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.18">I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.19">Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, you may believe that I am he.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.20">Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, He that receives whomsoever I send receives me; and he that receives me receives him that sent me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.21">When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.22">Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spoke.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.23">Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.24">Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spoke.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.25">He then lying on Jesus' breast says unto him, Lord, who is it?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.26">Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.27">And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That you are doing, do quickly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.28">Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spoke this unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.29">For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.30">He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.31">Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.32">If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall immediately glorify him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.33">Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Where I go, you cannot come; so now I say to you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.34">A new commandment I give unto you, That you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.35">By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one to another.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.36">Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, to where do you go? Jesus answered him, Where I go, you cannot follow me now; but you shall follow me afterwards.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.37">Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow you now? I will lay down my life for your sake.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.13.38">Jesus answered him, Will you lay down your life for my sake? Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, The cock shall not crow, till you have denied me three times.</verse>

<chapter osisID="John.17.26">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.1">When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his disciples.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.2">And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus frequently resorted to there with his disciples.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.3">Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, comes to there with lanterns and torches and weapons.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.4">Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.5">They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus says unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.6">As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.7">Then asked he them again, Whom seek you? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.8">Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore you seek me, let these go their way:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.9">That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spoke, Of those who you gave me have I lost none.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.10">Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.11">Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up your sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.12">Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.13">And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.14">Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.15">And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.16">But Peter stood at the door outside. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spoke unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.17">Then says the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Are not you also one of this man's disciples? He says, I am not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.18">And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.19">The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.20">Jesus answered him, I spoke openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, to where the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.21">Why do you ask me? ask those who heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.22">And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Do you answer the high priest so?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.23">Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why do you smite me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.24">Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.25">And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, Are not you also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.26">One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, says, Did not I see you in the garden with him?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.27">Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crowed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.28">Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.29">Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring you against this man?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.30">They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.31">Then said Pilate unto them, Take you him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.32">That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying what death he should die.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.33">Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Are you the King of the Jews?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.34">Jesus answered him, Say you this thing of yourself, or did others tell it you of me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.35">Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered you unto me: what have you done?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.36">Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from here.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.37">Pilate therefore said unto him, Are you a king then? Jesus answered, You say that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth hears my voice.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.38">Pilate says unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and says unto them, I find in him no fault at all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.39">But you have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will you therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.18.40">Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="John.18.40">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.1">Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and whipped him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.2">And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.3">And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.4">Pilate therefore went forth again, and says unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that you may know that I find no fault in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.5">Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate says unto them, Behold the man!</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.6">When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate says unto them, Take you him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.7">The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.8">When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.9">And went again into the judgment hall, and says unto Jesus, >From where are you? But Jesus gave him no answer.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.10">Then says Pilate unto him, You do not speak unto me? do you not know that I have power to crucify you, and have power to release you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.11">Jesus answered, You could have no power at all against me, unless it were given you from above: therefore he that delivered me unto you has the greater sin.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.12">And from then on, Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If you let this man go, you are not Caesar's friend: whosoever makes himself a king speaks against Caesar.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.13">When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.14">And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he says unto the Jews, Behold your King!</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.15">But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate says unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.16">Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.17">And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.18">Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.19">And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was JESUS OF NAZARETH THE KING OF THE JEWS.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.20">This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was close to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.21">Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.22">Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.23">Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.24">They said therefore among themselves, Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which says, They parted my clothing among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.25">Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.26">When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he says unto his mother, Woman, behold your son!</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.27">Then says he to the disciple, Behold your mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.28">After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, says, I thirst.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.29">Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a sponge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.30">When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.31">The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was a high day,) asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.32">Then came the soldiers, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.33">But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they broke not his legs:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.34">But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and immediately came there out blood and water.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.35">And he that saw it bore record, and his record is true: and he knows that he says true, that you might believe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.36">For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.37">And again another scripture says, They shall look on him whom they pierced.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.38">And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, asked Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.39">And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pound weight.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.40">Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.41">Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulcher, in which was never man yet laid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.19.42">There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulcher was close at hand.</verse>
|
|

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="John.19.42">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.1">The first day of the week comes Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulcher, and sees the stone taken away from the sepulcher.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.2">Then she runs, and comes to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and says unto them, They have taken away the LORD out of the sepulcher, and we know not where they have laid him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.3">Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulcher.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.4">So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulcher.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.5">And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.6">Then comes Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulcher, and sees the linen clothes lie,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.7">And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.8">Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulcher, and he saw, and believed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.9">For as yet they did not know the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.10">Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.11">But Mary stood outside at the sepulcher weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulcher,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.12">And sees two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.13">And they say unto her, Woman, why do you weep? She says unto them, Because they have taken away my LORD, and I do not know where they have laid him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.14">And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and did not know that it was Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.15">Jesus says unto her, Woman, why do you weep? whom do you seek? She, supposing him to be the gardener, says unto him, Sir, if you have carried him from here, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.16">Jesus says unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and says unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.17">Jesus says unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brothers, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.18">Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the LORD, and that he had spoken these things unto her.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.19">Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and says unto them, Peace be unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.20">And when he had so said, he showed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the LORD.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.21">Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father has sent me, even so send I you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.22">And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and says unto them, Receive you the Holy Ghost:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.23">Whose soever sins you remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins you retain, they are retained.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.24">But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.25">The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the LORD. But he said unto them, Unless I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.26">And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.27">Then says he to Thomas, Reach to here your finger, and behold my hands; and reach to here your hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.28">And Thomas answered and said unto him, My LORD and my God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.29">Jesus says unto him, Thomas, because you have seen me, you have believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.30">And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.20.31">But these are written, that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you might have life through his name.</verse>

<chapter osisID="John.20.31">
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.1">After these things Jesus showed himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberias; and on this wise showed he himself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.2">There were together Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of his disciples.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.3">Simon Peter says unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with you. They went forth, and entered into a boat immediately; and that night they caught nothing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.4">But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood on the shore: but the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.5">Then Jesus says unto them, Children, have you any food? They answered him, No.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.6">And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.7">Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved says unto Peter, It is the Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girt his fisher's coat unto him, (for he was naked,) and did cast himself into the sea.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.8">And the other disciples came in a little boat; (for they were not far from land, but as it were two hundred cubits,) dragging the net with fishes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.9">As soon then as they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.10">Jesus says unto them, Bring of the fish which you have now caught.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.11">Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.12">Jesus says unto them, Come and dine. And none of the disciples dared ask him, Who are you? knowing that it was the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.13">Jesus then comes, and takes bread, and gives them, and fish likewise.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="John.21.14">This is now the third time that Jesus showed himself to his disciples, after he was risen from the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.15">So when they had dined, Jesus says to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me more than these? He says unto him, Yes, Lord; you know that I love you. He says unto him, Feed my lambs.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.16">He says to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me? He says unto him, Yes, Lord; you know that I love you. He says unto him, Feed my sheep.</verse>

<verse osisID="John.21.17">He says unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, love you me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Do you love me? And he said unto him, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you. Jesus says unto him, Feed my sheep.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.18">Truthfully, truthfully, I say unto you, When you were young, you girded yourself, and walked to where you would: but when you shall be old, you shall stretch forth your hands, and another shall gird you, and carry you to where you would not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.19">This spoke he, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had spoken this, he says unto him, Follow me.</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.20">Then Peter, turning about, sees the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrays you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.21">Peter seeing him says to Jesus, Lord, and what shall this man do?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.22">Jesus says unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to you? follow you me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.23">Then went this saying abroad among the brothers, that that disciple should not die: yet Jesus said not unto him, He shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.24">This is the disciple which testifies of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="John.21.25">And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen. </div></verse>

<chapter osisID="John.21.25">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.1">The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.2">Until the day in which he was taken up, after he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.3">To whom also he showed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.4">And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, says he, you have heard of me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.5">For John truly baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.6">When they therefore had come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, will you at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.7">And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father has put in his own power.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.8">But you shall receive power, after the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and you shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.9">And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.10">And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.11">Which also said, You men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him go into heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.12">Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.13">And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.14">These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.15">And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, and said, (the number of names together were about a hundred and twenty,)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.16">Men and brothers, this scripture must needs have been fulfilled, which the Holy Ghost by the mouth of David spoke before concerning Judas, which was guide to them that took Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.17">For he was numbered with us, and had obtained part of this ministry.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.18">Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst apart in the middle, and all his insides gushed out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.19">And it was known unto all the dwellers at Jerusalem; insomuch as that field is called in their proper tongue, Aceldama, that is to say, The field of blood.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.20">For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation be desolate, and let no man dwell in it: and, Let another take his office.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.21">Therefore of these men which have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.22">Beginning from the baptism of John, unto that same day that he was taken up from us, one must be ordained to be a witness with us of his resurrection.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.23">And they appointed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.24">And they prayed, and said, You, Lord, which know the hearts of all men, show whether of these two you have chosen,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.25">That he may take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.1.26">And they gave forth their lots; and the lot fell upon Matthias; and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.</verse>

</chapter>

|
<chapter osisID="Acts.1.26">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.1">And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.2">And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.3">And there appeared unto them cloven tongues just as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.4">And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.5">And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.6">Now when this was reported abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because every man heard them speak in his own language.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.7">And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.8">And how hear we every man in our own tongue, in which we were born?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.9">Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.10">Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.11">Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.12">And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What means this?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.13">Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.14">But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, You men of Judaea, and all you that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.15">For these are not drunken, as you suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.16">But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.17">And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.18">And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.19">And I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.20">The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.21">And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.22">You men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as you yourselves also know:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.23">Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, you have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.24">Whom God has raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be held by it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.25">For David speaks concerning him, I saw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.26">Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.27">Because you will not leave my soul in hell, neither will you permit your Holy One to see corruption.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.28">You have made known to me the ways of life; you shall make me full of joy with your countenance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.29">Men and brothers, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulcher is with us unto this day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.30">Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.31">He seeing this before spoke of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.32">This Jesus has God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.33">Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he has shed forth this, which you now see and hear.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.34">For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he says himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit you on my right hand,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.35">Until I make your foes your footstool.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.36">Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God has made the same Jesus, whom you have crucified, both Lord and Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.37">Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brothers, what shall we do?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.38">Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.39">For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, just as many as the LORD our God shall call.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.40">And with many other words did he testify and exhort, saying, Save yourselves from this untoward generation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.41">Then they that gladly received his word were baptized: and the same day there were added unto them about three thousand souls.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.42">And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.43">And fear came upon every soul: and many wonders and signs were done by the apostles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.44">And all that believed were together, and had all things common;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.45">And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.46">And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their food with gladness and singleness of heart,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.2.47">Praising God, and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Acts.2.47">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.1">Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.2">And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.3">Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.4">And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.5">And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.6">Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.7">And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.8">And he leaping up stood, and walked, and entered with them into the temple, walking, and leaping, and praising God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.9">And all the people saw him walking and praising God:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.10">And they knew that it was he which sat for alms at the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they were filled with wonder and amazement at that which had happened unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.11">And as the lame man which was healed held Peter and John, all the people ran together unto them in the porch that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.12">And when Peter saw it, he answered unto the people, You men of Israel, why marvel you at this? or why look you so earnestly on us, as though by our own power or holiness we had made this man to walk?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.13">The God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Son Jesus; whom you delivered up, and denied him in the presence of Pilate, when he was determined to let him go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.14">But you denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.15">And killed the Prince of life, whom God has raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.16">And his name through faith in his name has made this man strong, whom you see and know: yes, the faith which is by him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.17">And now, brothers, I know that through ignorance you did it, as did also your rulers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.18">But those things, which God before had showed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he has so fulfilled.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.19">Repent you therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.20">And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.21">Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.22">For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brothers, like unto me; him shall you hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.23">And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.24">Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.3.25">You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in your seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Acts.3.26">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.1">And as they spoke unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.2">Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.3">And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now evening.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.4">Howbeit many of those who heard the word believed; and the number of the men was about five thousand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.5">And it came to pass on the next day, that their rulers, and elders, and scribes,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.6">And Annas the high priest, and Caiaphas, and John, and Alexander, and as many as were of the kindred of the high priest, were gathered together at Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.7">And when they had set them in the midst, they asked, By what power, or by what name, have you done this?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.8">Then Peter, filled with the Holy Ghost, said unto them, You rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.9">If we this day be examined of the good deed done to the sick man, by what means he is made whole;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.10">Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him does this man stand here before you whole.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.11">This is the stone which was set at no value of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.12">Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.13">Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marvelled; and they took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.14">And beholding the man which was healed standing with them, they could say nothing against it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.15">But when they had commanded them to go aside out of the council, they conferred among themselves,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.16">Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle has been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.17">But that it spread no further among the people, let us strictly threaten them, that they speak henceforth to no man in this name.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.18">And they called them, and commanded them not to speak at all nor teach in the name of Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.19">But Peter and John answered and said unto them, Whether it be right in the sight of God to hearken unto you more than unto God, judge you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.20">For we cannot but speak the things which we have seen and heard.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.21">So when they had further threatened them, they let them go, finding nothing how they might punish them, because of the people: for all men glorified God for that which was done.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.22">For the man was above forty years old, on whom this miracle of healing was showed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.23">And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.24">And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, you are God, which have made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.25">Who by the mouth of your servant David have said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.26">The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.27">For of a truth against your holy child Jesus, whom you have anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.28">For to do whatsoever your hand and your counsel determined before to be done.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.29">And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto your servants, that with all boldness they may speak your word,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.30">By stretching forth your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of your holy child Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.31">And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.32">And the multitude of them that believed were of one heart and of one soul: neither said any of them that anything of the things which he possessed was his own; but they had all things common.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Acts.4.35">And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.1">But a certain man named Ananias, with Sapphira his wife, sold a possession,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.2">And kept back part of the price, his wife also being privy to it, and brought a certain part, and laid it at the apostles' feet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.3">But Peter said, Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.4">Whiles it remained, was it not your own? and after it was sold, was it not in your own power? why have you conceived this thing in your heart? you have not lied unto men, but unto God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.5">And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.6">And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.7">And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.8">And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether you sold the land for so much? And she said, Yes, for so much.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.9">Then Peter said unto her, How is it that you have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and shall carry you out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.10">Then fell she down immediately at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.11">And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.12">And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.13">And of the rest no man dared join himself to them: but the people magnified them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.14">And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.15">Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.16">There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick people, and those who were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.17">Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.18">And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.19">But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.20">Go, stand and speak in the temple to the people all the words of this life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.21">And when they heard that, they entered into the temple early in the morning, and taught. But the high priest came, and they that were with him, and called the council together, and all the senate of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to have them brought.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.22">But when the officers came, and found them not in the prison, they returned and told,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.23">Saying, The prison truly found we shut with all safety, and the keepers standing outside before the doors: but when we had opened, we found no man within.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.24">Now when the high priest and the captain of the temple and the chief priests heard these things, they doubted of them whereunto this would grow.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.25">Then came one and told them, saying, Behold, the men whom you put in prison are standing in the temple, and teaching the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.26">Then went the captain with the officers, and brought them without violence: for they feared the people, lest they should have been stoned.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.27">And when they had brought them, they set them before the council: and the high priest asked them,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.28">Saying, Did not we strictly command you that you should not teach in this name? and, behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this man's blood upon us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.29">Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.30">The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you slew and hanged on a tree.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.31">Him has God exalted with his right hand to be a Prince and a Saviour, for to give repentance to Israel, and forgiveness of sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.32">And we are his witnesses of these things; and so is also the Holy Ghost, whom God has given to them that obey him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.33">When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.34">Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.35">And said unto them, You men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do as touching these men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.36">For before these days rose up Theudas, boasting himself to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves: who was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered, and brought to nought.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.37">After this man rose up Judas of Galilee in the days of the taxing, and drew away many people after him: he also perished; and all, just as many as obeyed him, were dispersed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.38">And now I say unto you, Refrain from these men, and let them alone: for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to nought:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.39">But if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it; lest haply you be found even to fight against God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.40">And to him they agreed: and when they had called the apostles, and beaten them, they commanded that they should not speak in the name of Jesus, and let them go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.41">And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.5.42">And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.6.2">Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.6.3">Therefore, brothers, select among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.6.6">Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.6.8">And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Acts.6.10">And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spoke.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.6.11">Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.6.12">And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council,</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.6.13">And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceases not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.7.5">And he gave him none inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when as yet he had no child.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Acts.7.6">And God spoke on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat them evil four hundred years.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.8.21">You have neither part nor lot in this matter: for your heart is not right in the sight of God.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.8.22">Repent therefore of this your wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.8.23">For I perceive that you are in the gall of bitterness, and in the bond of iniquity.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.8.26">And the angel of the Lord spoke unto Philip, saying, Arise, and go toward the south unto the way that goes down from Jerusalem unto Gaza, which is deserted.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.27">And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.28">Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Isaiah the prophet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.29">Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join yourself to this chariot.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.30">And Philip ran to there to him, and heard him read the prophet Isaiah, and said, Do you understand what you read?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.31">And he said, How can I, unless some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.32">The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.33">In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Acts.8.34">And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray you, of whom speaks the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.35">Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.36">And as they went on their way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, here is water; what does hinder me to be baptized?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.37">And Philip said, If you believe with all your heart, you may. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.38">And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.8.39">And when they had come up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.8.40">But Philip was found at Azotus: and passing through he preached in all the cities, till he came to Caesarea.</verse>

|

<verse osisID="Acts.9.1">And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.2">And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.3">And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.4">And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecute you me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.5">And he said, Who are you, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom you persecute: it is hard for you to kick against the pricks.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.6">And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what will you have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told you what you must do.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.7">And the men which journeyed with him stood speechless, hearing a voice, but seeing no man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.8">And Saul arose from the earth; and when his eyes were opened, he saw no man: but they led him by the hand, and brought him into Damascus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.9">And he was three days without sight, and neither did eat nor drink.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.10">And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.11">And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and inquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul, of Tarsus: for, behold, he prays,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.12">And has seen in a vision a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hand on him, that he might receive his sight.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.13">Then Ananias answered, Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he has done to your saints at Jerusalem:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.14">And here he has authority from the chief priests to bind all that call on your name.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.15">But the Lord said unto him, Go your way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.9.16">For I will show him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.17">And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto you on the way as you came, has sent me, that you might receive your sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.18">And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight immediately, and arose, and was baptized.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.9.19">And when he had received food, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.9.20">And immediately he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.21">But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed those who called on this name in Jerusalem, and came to here for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.22">But Saul increased the more in strength, and confounded the Jews which dwelled at Damascus, proving that this is very Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.23">And after many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel to kill him:</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.24">But their laying await was known of Saul. And they watched the gates day and night to kill him.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.9.30">Which when the brothers knew, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.31">Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.32">And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all quarters, he came down also to the saints which dwelled at Lydda.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.9.33">And there he found a certain man named Aeneas, which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.9.35">And all that dwelled at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.36">Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.37">And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.38">And forasmuch as Lydda was close to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.39">Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and showing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.40">But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.9.41">And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.9.42">And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Acts.9.43">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.1">There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.2">A devout man, and one that feared God with all his house, which gave much alms to the people, and prayed to God always.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.3">He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.4">And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Your prayers and your alms are come up for a memorial before God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.5">And now send men to Joppa, and call for one Simon, whose surname is Peter:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.6">He lodges with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the seaside: he shall tell you what you should do.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.7">And when the angel which spoke unto Cornelius was departed, he called two of his household servants, and a devout soldier of them that waited on him continually;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.8">And when he had declared all these things unto them, he sent them to Joppa.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.9">On the next day, as they went on their journey, and drew close unto the city, Peter went up upon the housetop to pray about the sixth hour:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.10">And he became very hungry, and would have eaten: but while they made ready, he fell into a trance,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.11">And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.12">Wherein were all manner of fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.13">And there came a voice to him, Rise, Peter; kill, and eat.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.14">But Peter said, Not so, Lord; for I have never eaten any thing that is common or unclean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.15">And the voice spoke unto him again the second time, What God has cleansed, that call not you common.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.16">This was done three times: and the vessel was received up again into heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.17">Now while Peter doubted in himself what this vision which he had seen should mean, behold, the men which were sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon's house, and stood before the gate,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.18">And called, and asked whether Simon, which was surnamed Peter, were lodged there.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.19">While Peter thought on the vision, the Spirit said unto him, Behold, three men seek you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.20">Arise therefore, and get you down, and go with them, doubting nothing: for I have sent them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.21">Then Peter went down to the men which were sent unto him from Cornelius; and said, Behold, I am he whom you seek: what is the cause why you are come?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.22">And they said, Cornelius the centurion, a just man, and one that fears God, and of good report among all the nation of the Jews, was warned from God by a holy angel to send for you into his house, and to hear words of you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.23">Then called he them in, and lodged them. And on the next day Peter went away with them, and certain brothers from Joppa accompanied him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.24">And the next day after they entered into Caesarea. And Cornelius waited for them, and he had called together his kinsmen and near friends.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.25">And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and fell down at his feet, and worshipped him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.26">But Peter took him up, saying, Stand up; I myself also am a man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.27">And as he talked with him, he went in, and found many that were come together.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.28">And he said unto them, You know that it is an unlawful thing for a man that is a Jew to keep company, or come unto one of another nation; but God has showed me that I should not call any man common or unclean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.29">Therefore came I unto you without opposing, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent you have sent for me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.30">And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.31">And said, Cornelius, your prayer is heard, and your alms are had in remembrance in the sight of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.32">Send therefore to Joppa, and call to here Simon, whose surname is Peter; he is lodged in the house of one Simon a tanner by the sea side: who, when he comes, shall speak unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.33">Immediately therefore I sent to you; and you have well done that you are come. Now therefore are we all here present before God, to hear all things that are commanded you of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.34">Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.35">But in every nation he that fears him, and works righteousness, is accepted with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.36">The word which God sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.37">That word, I say, you know, which was spoken out throughout all Judaea, and began from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.38">How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.39">And we are witnesses of all things which he did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom they slew and hanged on a tree:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.40">Him God raised up the third day, and showed him openly;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.41">Not to all the people, but unto witnesses chosen before God, even to us, who did eat and drink with him after he rose from the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.42">And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.43">To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believes in him shall receive remission of sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.44">While Peter yet spoke these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all those who heard the word.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.45">And they of the circumcision which believed were astonished, as many as came with Peter, because on the Gentiles also was poured out the gift of the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.46">For they heard them speak with tongues, and magnify God. Then answered Peter,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.47">Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, which have received the Holy Ghost as well as we?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.10.48">And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Acts.10.48">
|

<verse osisID="Acts.11.1">And the apostles and brothers that were in Judaea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.3">Saying, You went in to men uncircumcised, and did eat with them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.4">But Peter rehearsed the matter from the beginning, and expounded it by order unto them, saying,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.5">I was in the city of Joppa praying: and in a trance I saw a vision, A certain vessel descend, as it had been a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came even to me:</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.6">Upon the which when I had fastened my eyes, I considered, and saw fourfooted beasts of the earth, and wild beasts, and creeping things, and fowls of the air.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.11.7">And I heard a voice saying unto me, Arise, Peter; slay and eat.</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.8">But I said, Not so, Lord: for nothing common or unclean has at any time entered into my mouth.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.11.9">But the voice answered me again from heaven, What God has cleansed, that call not you common.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.10">And this was done three times: and all were drawn up again into heaven.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Acts.11.11">And, behold, immediately there were three men already come unto the house where I was, sent from Caesarea unto me.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.11.13">And he showed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter;</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.11.14">Who shall tell you words, whereby you and all your house shall be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.15">And as I began to speak, the Holy Ghost fell on them, as on us at the beginning.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.16">Then remembered I the word of the Lord, that he said, John indeed baptized with water; but you shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.17">Since God gave them the like gift as he did unto us, who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ; what was I, that I could withstand God?</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.11.18">When they heard these things, they held their peace, and glorified God, saying, Then has God also to the Gentiles granted repentance unto life.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.11.19">Now they which were scattered abroad upon the persecution that arose about Stephen travelled as far as Phenice, and Cyprus, and Antioch, preaching the word to none but unto the Jews only.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.11.20">And some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, which, when they had come to Antioch, spoke unto the Grecians, preaching the LORD Jesus.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.1">Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.2">And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.3">And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.4">And when he had apprehended him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him; intending after passover to bring him forth to the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.5">Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.6">And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.7">And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.8">And the angel said unto him, Gird yourself, and bind on your sandals. And so he did. And he says unto him, Cast your garment about you, and follow me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.9">And he went out, and followed him; and knew not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.10">When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leads unto the city; which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and immediately the angel departed from him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.11">And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the LORD has sent his angel, and has delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.12">And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.13">And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken, named Rhoda.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.14">And when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.15">And they said unto her, You are mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.16">But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened the door, and saw him, they were astonished.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.17">But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go show these things unto James, and to the brothers. And he departed, and went into another place.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.18">Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.19">And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the keepers, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judaea to Caesarea, and there abode.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.20">And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king's chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king's country.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.21">And upon a set day Herod, arrayed in royal apparel, sat upon his throne, and made an oration unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.22">And the people gave a shout, saying, It is the voice of a god, and not of a man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.23">And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.24">But the word of God grew and multiplied.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.12.25">And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministry, and took with them John, whose surname was Mark.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Acts.12.25">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.1">Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.2">As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.3">And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.4">So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost, departed unto Seleucia; and from there they sailed to Cyprus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.5">And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they had also John to their minister.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.6">And when they had gone through the isle unto Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.7">Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.8">But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.9">Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.10">And said, O full of all trickery and all mischief, you child of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.11">And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you shall be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.12">Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.13">Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia: and John departing from them returned to Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.14">But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and sat down.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.15">And after the reading of the law and the prophets the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them, saying, You men and brothers, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.16">Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with his hand said, Men of Israel, and you that fear God, give audience.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.17">The God of this people of Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people when they dwelled as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with a high arm brought he them out of it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.18">And about the time of forty years suffered he their manners in the wilderness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.19">And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Chanaan, he divided their land to them by lot.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.20">And after that he gave unto them judges about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.21">And afterward they desired a king: and God gave unto them Saul the son of Cis, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of forty years.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.22">And when he had removed him, he raised up unto them David to be their king; to whom also he gave their testimony, and said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man after my own heart, which shall fulfill all my will.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.23">Of this man's seed has God according to his promise raised unto Israel a Saviour, Jesus:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.24">When John had first preached before his coming the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.25">And as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think you that I am? I am not he. But, behold, there comes one after me, whose shoes of his feet I am not worthy to loose.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.26">Men and brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and whosoever among you fears God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.27">For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.28">And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.29">And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulcher.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.30">But God raised him from the dead:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.31">And he was seen many days of those who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.32">And we declare unto you glad tidings, that the promise which was made unto the fathers,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.33">God has fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he has raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, You are my Son, this day have I begotten you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.34">And as concerning that he raised him up from the dead, now no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.35">Therefore he says also in another psalm, You shall not permit your Holy One to see corruption.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.36">For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.37">But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.38">Be it known unto you therefore, men and brothers, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.39">And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.40">Beware therefore, lest that come upon you, which is spoken of in the prophets;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.41">Behold, you despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which you shall in no way believe, though a man declare it unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.42">And when the Jews were gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles asked that these words might be preached to them the next sabbath.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.43">Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.44">And the next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.45">But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spoke against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.46">Then Paul and Barnabas grown bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first have been spoken to you: but seeing you put it from you, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we turn to the Gentiles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.47">For so has the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set you to be a light of the Gentiles, that you should be for salvation unto the ends of the earth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.48">And when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life believed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.49">And the word of the Lord was spoken out throughout all the region.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.50">But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them out of their borders.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.51">But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came unto Iconium.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.13.52">And the disciples were filled with joy, and with the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Acts.13.52">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.1">And it came to pass in Iconium, that they went both together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke, that a great multitude both of the Jews and also of the Greeks believed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.2">But the unbelieving Jews stirred up the Gentiles, and made their minds evil affected against the brothers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.3">Long time therefore abode they speaking boldly in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of his grace, and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.4">But the multitude of the city was divided: and part held with the Jews, and part with the apostles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.5">And when there was an assault made both of the Gentiles, and also of the Jews with their rulers, to use them despitefully, and to stone them,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.6">They were ware of it, and fled unto Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and unto the region that lies round about:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.7">And there they preached the gospel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.8">And there sat a certain man at Lystra, sick in his feet, being a cripple from his mother's womb, who never had walked:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.9">The same heard Paul speak: who steadfastly beholding him, and perceiving that he had faith to be healed,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.10">Said with a loud voice, Stand upright on your feet. And he leaped and walked.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.11">And when the people saw what Paul had done, they lifted up their voices, saying in the speech of Lycaonia, The gods are come down to us in the likeness of men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.12">And they called Barnabas, Jupiter; and Paul, Mercurius, because he was the chief speaker.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.13">Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.14">Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they tear their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.15">And saying, Sirs, why do you these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that you should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are in it:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.16">Who in times past permitted all nations to walk in their own ways.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.17">Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.18">And with these sayings scarce restrained they the people, that they had not done sacrifice unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.19">And there came to there certain Jews from Antioch and Iconium, who persuaded the people, and having stoned Paul, drew him out of the city, supposing he had been dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.20">Howbeit, as the disciples stood round about him, he rose up, and came into the city: and the next day he departed with Barnabas to Derbe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.21">And when they had preached the gospel to that city, and had taught many, they returned again to Lystra, and to Iconium, and Antioch,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.22">Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.23">And when they had ordained them elders in every church, and had prayed with fasting, they commended them to the Lord, on whom they believed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.24">And after they had passed throughout Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.14.25">And when they had preached the word in Perga, they went down into Attalia:</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.1">And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brothers, and said, Unless you be circumcised after the manner of Moses, you cannot be saved.</verse>
|

|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.2">When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain other of them, should go up to Jerusalem unto the apostles and elders about this question.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.3">And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy unto all the brothers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.4">And when they had come to Jerusalem, they were received of the church, and of the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.8">And God, which knows the hearts, bore them witness, giving them the Holy Ghost, just as he did unto us;</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.9">And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.13">And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brothers, hearken unto me:</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.15.15">And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.15.16">After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David, which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins of it, and I will set it up:</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.15.18">Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Acts.15.19">Therefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.20">But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.21">For Moses of old time has in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.22">Then pleased it the apostles and elders with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas and Silas, chief men among the brothers:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.23">And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and elders and brothers send greeting unto the brothers which are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.24">Since as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, You must be circumcised, and keep the law: to whom we gave no such commandment:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.25">It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul,</verse>
|
|

|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.26">Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.27">We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who shall also tell you the same things by mouth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.28">For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.29">That you abstain from foods offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if you keep yourselves, you shall do well. Fare you well.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.30">So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle:</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.31">Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.32">And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brothers with many words, and confirmed them.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.15.33">And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brothers unto the apostles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.34">Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.35">Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.36">And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brothers in every city where we have preached the word of the LORD, and see how they do.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.37">And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.38">But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.39">And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.40">And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brothers unto the grace of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.15.41">And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Acts.15.41">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.1">Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.2">Which was well reported of by the brothers that were at Lystra and Iconium.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.3">Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.4">And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.5">And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.6">Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.7">After they had come to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit permitted them not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.8">And they passing by Mysia came down to Troas.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.9">And a vision appeared to Paul in the night; There stood a man of Macedonia, and prayed him, saying, Come over into Macedonia, and help us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.10">And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavored to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.11">Therefore loosing from Troas, we came with a straight course to Samothracia, and the next day to Neapolis;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.12">And from there to Philippi, which is the chief city of that part of Macedonia, and a colony: and we were in that city abiding certain days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.13">And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was accustomed to be made; and we sat down, and spoke unto the women which resorted to there.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.14">And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Youratira, which worshipped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened, that she attended unto the things which were spoken of Paul.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.15">And when she was baptized, and her household, she asked us, saying, If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house, and abide there. And she constrained us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.16">And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.17">The same followed Paul and us, and cried, saying, These men are the servants of the most high God, which show unto us the way of salvation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.18">And this did she many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out the same hour.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.19">And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.20">And brought them to the magistrates, saying, These men, being Jews, do exceedingly trouble our city,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.21">And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to receive, neither to observe, being Romans.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.22">And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates tore off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.23">And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.24">Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.25">And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.26">And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one's bands were loosed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.27">And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.28">But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do yourself no harm: for we are all here.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.29">Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.30">And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.31">And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you shall be saved, and your house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.32">And they spoke unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.33">And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their stripes; and was baptized, he and all his, immediately.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.34">And when he had brought them into his house, he set food before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.35">And when it was day, the magistrates sent the sergeants, saying, Let those men go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.36">And the keeper of the prison told this saying to Paul, The magistrates have sent to let you go: now therefore depart, and go in peace.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.37">But Paul said unto them, They have beaten us openly uncondemned, being Romans, and have cast us into prison; and now do they thrust us out secretly? no truthfully; but let them come themselves and fetch us out.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.38">And the sergeants told these words unto the magistrates: and they feared, when they heard that they were Romans.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.39">And they came and sought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.16.40">And they went out of the prison, and entered into the house of Lydia: and when they had seen the brothers, they comforted them, and departed.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Acts.16.40">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.1">Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was a synagogue of the Jews:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.2">And Paul, as his manner was, went in unto them, and three sabbath days reasoned with them out of the scriptures,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.3">Opening and alleging, that Christ must needs have suffered, and risen again from the dead; and that this Jesus, whom I preach unto you, is Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.4">And some of them believed, and consorted with Paul and Silas; and of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and of the chief women not a few.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.5">But the Jews which believed not, moved with envy, took unto them certain lewd fellows of the baser sort, and gathered a company, and set all the city on an uproar, and assaulted the house of Jason, and sought to bring them out to the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.6">And when they found them not, they drew Jason and certain brothers unto the rulers of the city, crying, These that have turned the world upside down are come to here also;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.7">Whom Jason has received: and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, one Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.8">And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.9">And when they had taken security of Jason, and of the other, they let them go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.10">And the brothers immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming to there went into the synagogue of the Jews.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.11">These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.12">Therefore many of them believed; also of honorable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.13">But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was preached of Paul at Berea, they came to there also, and stirred up the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.14">And then immediately the brothers sent away Paul to go as it were to the sea: but Silas and Timotheus abode there still.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.15">And they that conducted Paul brought him unto Athens: and receiving a commandment unto Silas and Timotheus for to come to him with all speed, they departed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.16">Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he saw the city wholly given to idolatry.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.17">Therefore disputed he in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the devout persons, and in the market daily with them that met with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.18">Then certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks, encountered him. And some said, What will this babbler say? other some, He seems to be a setter forth of strange gods: because he preached unto them Jesus, and the resurrection.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.19">And they took him, and brought him unto Areopagus, saying, May we know what this new doctrine, whereof you speak, is?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.20">For you bring certain strange things to our ears: we would know therefore what these things mean.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.21">(For all the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell, or to hear some new thing.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.22">Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill, and said, You men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are too superstitious.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.23">For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore you ignorantly worship, him declare I unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.24">God that made the world and all things in it, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwells not in temples made with hands;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.25">Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he gives to all life, and breath, and all things;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.26">And has made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.27">That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.28">For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.29">Since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven by are and man's device.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.30">And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commands all men every where to repent:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.31">Because he has appointed a day, in which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he has ordained; whereof he has given assurance unto all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.32">And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear you again of this matter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.33">So Paul departed from among them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.17.34">Howbeit certain men clave unto him, and believed: among the which was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.</verse>

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Acts.17.34">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.1">After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.2">And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.3">And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.4">And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.5">And when Silas and Timotheus had come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.6">And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his clothing, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean; from now on I will go unto the Gentiles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.7">And he departed from there, and entered into a certain man's house, named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.8">And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.9">Then spoke the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not your peace:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.10">For I am with you, and no man shall set on you to hurt you: for I have many people in this city.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.11">And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.12">And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.13">Saying, This fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.14">And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O you Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.15">But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look you to it; for I will be no judge of such matters.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.16">And he drove them from the judgment seat.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.17">Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.18">And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brothers, and sailed from there into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.19">And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.20">When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.21">But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that comes in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.22">And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.23">And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went over all the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.24">And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.25">This man was instructed on the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spoke and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.26">And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.27">And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brothers wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace:</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.18.28">For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publicly, showing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.</verse>

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Acts.18.28">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.1">And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper borders came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.2">He said unto them, Have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.3">And he said unto them, Unto what then were you baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.4">Then said Paul, John truthfully baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.5">When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.6">And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spoke with tongues, and prophesied.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.7">And all the men were about twelve.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.8">And he went into the synagogue, and spoke boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.9">But when different were hardened, and believed not, but spoke evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.10">And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelled in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.11">And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.12">So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.13">Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over those who had evil spirits the name of the LORD Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.14">And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, and chief of the priests, which did so.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.15">And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.16">And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.17">And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.18">And many that believed came, and confessed, and showed their deeds.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.19">Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.20">So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.21">After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.22">So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.23">And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.24">For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.25">Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, you know that by this craft we have our wealth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.26">Moreover you see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.19.27">So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.21.21">And they are informed of you, that you teach all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.23.12">And when it was day, certain of the Jews banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, saying that they would neither eat nor drink till they had killed Paul.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.13">And they were more than forty which had made this conspiracy.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.14">And they came to the chief priests and elders, and said, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, that we will eat nothing until we have slain Paul.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.15">Now therefore you with the council signify to the chief captain that he bring him down unto you tomorrow, as though you would inquire something more perfectly concerning him: and we, or ever he come near, are ready to kill him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.16">And when Paul's sister's son heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the castle, and told Paul.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.17">Then Paul called one of the centurions unto him, and said, Bring this young man unto the chief captain: for he has a certain thing to tell him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.18">So he took him, and brought him to the chief captain, and said, Paul the prisoner called me unto him, and prayed me to bring this young man unto you, who has something to say unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.19">Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside secretly, and asked him, What is that you have to tell me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.20">And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire you that you would bring down Paul tomorrow into the council, as though they would inquire somewhat of him more perfectly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.21">But do not you yield unto them: for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, which have bound themselves with an oath, that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now are they ready, looking for a promise from you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.22">So the chief captain then let the young man depart, and charged him, See you tell no man that you have showed these things to me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.23">And he called unto him two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and horsemen threescore and ten, and spearmen two hundred, at the third hour of the night;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.24">And provide them beasts, that they may set Paul on, and bring him safe unto Felix the governor.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.25">And he wrote a letter after this manner:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.26">Claudius Lysias unto the most excellent governor Felix sends greeting.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.27">This man was taken of the Jews, and should have been killed of them: then came I with an army, and rescued him, having understood that he was a Roman.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.28">And when I would have known the cause why they accused him, I brought him forth into their council:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.29">Whom I perceived to be accused by questions of their law, but to have nothing laid to his charge worthy of death or of bonds.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.30">And when it was told me that the Jews laid wait for the man, I sent immediately to you, and gave commandment to his accusers also to say before you what they had against him. Farewell.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.31">Then the soldiers, as it was commanded them, took Paul, and brought him by night to Antipatris.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.32">On the next day they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the castle:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.33">Who, when they came to Caesarea and delivered the epistle to the governor, presented Paul also before him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.34">And when the governor had read the letter, he asked of what province he was. And when he understood that he was of Cilicia;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.23.35">I will hear you, said he, when your accusers are also come. And he commanded him to be kept in Herod's judgment hall.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Acts.23.35">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.1">And after five days Ananias the high priest descended with the elders, and with a certain orator named Tertullus, who informed the governor against Paul.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.2">And when he was called forth, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, Seeing that by you we enjoy great quietness, and that very worthy deeds are done unto this nation by your providence,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.3">We accept it always, and in all places, most noble Felix, with all thankfulness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.4">Notwithstanding, that I be not further tedious unto you, I pray you that you would hear us of your clemency a few words.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.5">For we have found this man a pestilent fellow, and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.6">Who also has gone about to profane the temple: whom we took, and would have judged according to our law.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.7">But the chief captain Lysias came upon us, and with great violence took him away out of our hands,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.8">Commanding his accusers to come unto you: by examining of whom yourself may take knowledge of all these things, whereof we accuse him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.9">And the Jews also assented, saying that these things were so.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.10">Then Paul, after the governor had beckoned unto him to speak, answered, Since as I know that you have been of many years a judge unto this nation, I do the more cheerfully answer for myself:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.11">Because that you may understand, that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to worship.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.12">And they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, neither raising up the people, neither in the synagogues, nor in the city:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.13">Neither can they prove the things whereof they now accuse me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.14">But this I confess unto you, that after the way which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and in the prophets:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.15">And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.16">And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void to offense toward God, and toward men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.17">Now after many years I came to bring alms to my nation, and offerings.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.18">Whereupon certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor with tumult.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.19">Who ought to have been here before you, and object, if they had ought against me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.20">Or else let these same here say, if they have found any evil doing in me, while I stood before the council,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.21">Unless it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them, Touching the resurrection of the dead I am called in question by you this day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.22">And when Felix heard these things, having more perfect knowledge of that way, he deferred them, and said, When Lysias the chief captain shall come down, I will know the last of your matter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.23">And he commanded a centurion to keep Paul, and to let him have liberty, and that he should forbid none of his acquaintance to minister or come unto him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.24">And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.25">And as he reasoned of righteousness, temperance, and judgment to come, Felix trembled, and answered, Go your way for this time; when I have a convenient season, I will call for you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.26">He hoped also that money should have been given him of Paul, that he might loose him: therefore he sent for him the more often, and communed with him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.24.27">But after two years Porcius Festus came into Felix' room: and Felix, willing to show the Jews a pleasure, left Paul bound.</verse>

</chapter>

<chapter osisID="Acts.24.27">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.1">Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Caesarea to Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.2">Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.3">And desired favor against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait on the way to kill him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.4">But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Caesarea, and that he himself would depart shortly to there.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.5">Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.6">And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Caesarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.7">And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could not prove.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.8">While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Caesar, have I offended any thing at all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.9">But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, Do you want go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.10">Then said Paul, I stand at Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as you very well know.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.11">For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Caesar.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.12">Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Have you appealed unto Caesar? unto Caesar shall you go.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.13">And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Caesarea to salute Festus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.14">And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul's cause unto the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.15">About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me, desiring to have judgment against him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.16">To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face, and have license to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.17">Therefore, when they had come to here, without any delay on the morrow I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.18">Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.19">But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.20">And because I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked him whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.21">But when Paul had appealed to be reserved unto the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I might send him to Caesar.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.22">Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To morrow, said he, you shall hear him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.23">And on the next day, when Agrippa was come, and Bernice, with great pomp, and was entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains, and principal men of the city, at Festus' commandment Paul was brought forth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.24">And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men which are here present with us, you see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews have dealt with me, both at Jerusalem, and also here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.25">But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and that he himself has appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.26">Of whom I have no certain thing to write unto my lord. Therefore I have brought him forth before you, and specially before you, O king Agrippa, that, after examination had, I might have somewhat to write.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.25.27">For it seems to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not also to signify the crimes laid against him.</verse>

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Acts.25.27">
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.1">Then Agrippa said unto Paul, You are permitted to speak for yourself. Then Paul stretched forth the hand, and answered for himself:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.2">I think myself happy, king Agrippa, because I shall answer for myself this day before you touching all the things whereof I am accused by the Jews:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.3">Especially because I know you to be expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews: therefore I beseech you to hear me patiently.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.4">My manner of life from my youth, which was at the first among my own nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.5">Which knew me from the beginning, if they would testify, that after the most strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.6">And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God, unto our fathers:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.7">Unto which promise our twelve tribes, instantly serving God day and night, hope to come. For which hope's sake, king Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.8">Why should it be thought a thing incredible with you, that God should raise the dead?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.9">I truthfully thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.10">Which thing I also did in Jerusalem: and many of the saints did I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death, I gave my voice against them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.11">And I punished them often in every synagogue, and compelled them to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto strange cities.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.12">Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.13">At midday, O king, I saw on the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and those who journeyed with me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.14">And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me? it is hard for you to kick against the pricks.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.15">And I said, Who are you, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom you persecute.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.16">But rise, and stand upon your feet: for I have appeared unto you for this purpose, to make you a minister and a witness both of these things which you have seen, and of those things in which I will appear unto you;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.17">Delivering you from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send you,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.18">To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith that is in me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.19">Whereupon, O king Agrippa, I was not disobedient unto the heavenly vision:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.20">But showed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the borders of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works suitable for repentance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.21">For these causes the Jews caught me in the temple, and went about to kill me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.22">Having therefore obtained help of God, I continue unto this day, witnessing both to small and great, saying none other things than those which the prophets and Moses did say should come:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.23">That Christ should suffer, and that he should be the first that should rise from the dead, and should show light unto the people, and to the Gentiles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.24">And as he thus spoke for himself, Festus said with a loud voice, Paul, you are beside yourself; much learning does make you mad.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.25">But he said, I am not mad, most noble Festus; but speak forth the words of truth and soberness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.26">For the king knows of these things, before whom also I speak freely: for I am persuaded that none of these things are hidden from him; for this thing was not done in a corner.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.27">King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets? I know that you believe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.28">Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost you persuade me to be a Christian.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.29">And Paul said, I would to God, that not only you, but also all that hear me this day, were both almost, and altogether such as I am, except these bonds.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.30">And when he had thus spoken, the king rose up, and the governor, and Bernice, and they that sat with them:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.31">And when they were gone aside, they talked between themselves, saying, This man does nothing worthy of death or of bonds.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.26.32">Then said Agrippa unto Festus, This man might have been set at liberty, if he had not appealed unto Caesar.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.27.1">And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto one named Julius, a centurion of Augustus' band.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.2">And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the borders of Asia; one Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.3">And the next day we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously treated Paul, and gave him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.4">And when we had launched from there, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Acts.27.5">And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.27.6">And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us in it.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Acts.27.7">And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce had come over against Cnidus, the wind not permitting us, we sailed under Crete, over against Salmone;</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.8">And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair havens; close whereunto was the city of Lasea.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.9">Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.10">And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.11">Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.12">And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart from there also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, and there to winter; which is a haven of Crete, and lies toward the south west and north west.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.13">And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing from there, they sailed close by Crete.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.14">But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.15">And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let her drive.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Acts.27.16">And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.17">Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, struck sail, and so were driven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.18">And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship;</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Acts.27.19">And the third day we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.27.21">But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, you should have harkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.27.22">And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but of the ship.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.27.27">But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.28">And sounded, and found it twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found it fifteen fathoms.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.29">Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.30">And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under color as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.31">Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Unless these abide in the ship, you cannot be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.32">Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.33">And while the day was coming on, Paul asked them all to take food, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that you have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.34">Therefore I pray you to take some food: for this is for your health: for there shall not a hair fall from the head of any of you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.35">And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.36">Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some food.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.37">And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.38">And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.39">And when it was day, they did not know the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.40">And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoisted up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.41">And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmovable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.42">And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.43">But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first into the sea, and get to land:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.27.44">And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land.</verse>

<verse osisID="Acts.28.1">And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.2">And the barbarous people showed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.3">And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.4">And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped the sea, yet vengeance did not permit to live.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.5">And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.6">Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.7">In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the island, whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days courteously.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.8">And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.9">So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.10">Who also honored us with many honors; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.11">And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.12">And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.13">And from there we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.14">Where we found brothers, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.15">And from there, when the brothers heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.16">And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was permitted to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.17">And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they had come together, he said unto them, Men and brothers, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.18">Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.19">But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had anything to accuse my nation of.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.20">For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you, and to speak with you: because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.21">And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea concerning you, neither any of the brothers that came showed or spoke any harm of you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.22">But we desire to hear of you what you think: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.23">And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.24">And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.25">And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spoke the Holy Ghost by Isaiah the prophet unto our fathers,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.26">Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing you shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing you shall see, and not perceive:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.27">For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.28">Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Acts.28.29">And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.30">And Paul dwelled two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Acts.28.31">Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him. </div></verse>

|

<verse osisID="Rom.1.1">Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.2">(Which he had promised before by his prophets in the holy scriptures,)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.3">Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.4">And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.5">By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.6">Among whom are you also the called of Jesus Christ:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.7">To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.8">First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.9">For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.10">Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.11">For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end you may be established;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.12">That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.13">Now I would not have you ignorant, brothers, that oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was hindered until now,) that I might have some fruit among you also, just as among other Gentiles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.14">I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.15">So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.16">For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.17">For in it is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.18">For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.19">Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God has showed it unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.20">For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.21">Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.22">Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.23">And changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like unto corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.24">Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies between themselves:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.25">Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.26">For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.27">And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was suitable.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.28">And just as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not fitting;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.29">Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.30">Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.31">Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.1.32">Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.</verse>
|

|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Rom.1.32">
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.1">Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whosoever you are that judges: for in that which you judge another, you condemn yourself; for you that judge are doing the same things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.2">But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against those who commit such things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.3">And think you this, O man, that judge those who do such things, and are doing the same, that you shall escape the judgment of God?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.4">Or do you despise the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.5">But after your hardness and impenitent heart treasure up unto yourself wrath against the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.6">Who will render to every man according to his deeds:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.7">To them who by patient continuance in well doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.8">But unto them that are contentious, and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.9">Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that does evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.10">But glory, honor, and peace, to every man that works good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.11">For there is no respect of persons with God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.12">For as many as have sinned outside law shall also perish outside law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.13">(For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.14">For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.15">Which show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.16">In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.17">Behold, you are called a Jew, and rest in the law, and make your boast of God,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.18">And know his will, and approve the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.19">And are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.20">An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which have the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.21">You therefore which teach another, teach you not yourself? you that preach a man should not steal, do you steal?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.22">You that say a man should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery? you that abhor idols, do you commit sacrilege?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.23">You that make your boast of the law, through breaking the law do you dishonor God?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.24">For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.25">For circumcision truthfully profits, if you keep the law: but if you be a breaker of the law, your circumcision is made uncircumcision.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.26">Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.27">And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfill the law, judge you, who by the letter and circumcision do transgress the law?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.28">For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.2.29">But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God.</verse>

</chapter>

<chapter osisID="Rom.2.29">
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.1">What advantage then has the Jew? or what profit is there of circumcision?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.2">Much every way: chiefly, because unto them were committed the oracles of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.3">For what if some did not believe? shall their unbelief make the faith of God without effect?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.4">God forbid: yes, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That you might be justified in your sayings, and might overcome when you are judged.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.5">But if our unrighteousness commend the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unrighteous who takes vengeance? (I speak as a man)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.6">God forbid: for then how shall God judge the world?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.7">For if the truth of God has more abounded through my lie unto his glory; why yet am I also judged as a sinner?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.8">And not rather, (as we be slanderously reported, and as some affirm that we say,) Let us do evil, that good may come? whose damnation is just.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.9">What then? are we better than they? No, in no way: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.10">As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.11">There is none that understands, there is none that seeks after God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.12">They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that does good, no, not one.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.13">Their throat is an open sepulcher; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.14">Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.15">Their feet are swift to shed blood:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.16">Destruction and misery are in their ways:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.17">And the way of peace have they not known:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.18">There is no fear of God before their eyes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.19">Now we know that what things soever the law says, it says to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.20">Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.21">But now the righteousness of God outside the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.22">Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.23">For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.24">Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.25">Whom God has set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.26">To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believes in Jesus.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Rom.3.27">Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? No: but by the law of faith.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.28">Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith outside the deeds of the law.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.29">Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.3.30">Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.4.3">For what says the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.4">Now to him that works is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.5">But to him that works not, but believes on him that justifies the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.6">Just as David also describes the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputes righteousness without works,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.7">Saying, Blessed are they whose iniquities are forgiven, and whose sins are covered.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.8">Blessed is the man to whom the Lord will not impute sin.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.9">Comes this blessedness then upon the circumcision only, or upon the uncircumcision also? for we say that faith was reckoned to Abraham for righteousness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.10">How was it then reckoned? when he was in circumcision, or in uncircumcision? Not in circumcision, but in uncircumcision.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.11">And he received the sign of circumcision, a seal of the righteousness of the faith which he had yet being uncircumcised: that he might be the father of all them that believe, though they be not circumcised; that righteousness might be imputed unto them also:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.12">And the father of circumcision to them who are not of the circumcision only, but who also walk in the steps of that faith of our father Abraham, which he had being yet uncircumcised.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.13">For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world, was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness of faith.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.14">For if they which are of the law be heirs, faith is made void, and the promise made of no effect:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.15">Because the law works wrath: for where no law is, there is no transgression.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.16">Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.17">(As it is written, I have made you a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who gives life to the dead, and calls those things which be not as though they were.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.18">Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall your seed be.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.19">And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about a hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.20">He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.21">And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.22">And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.23">Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.4.24">But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.5.14">Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.5.15">But not as the offense, so also is the free gift. For if through the offense of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, has abounded unto many.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.5.16">And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offenses unto justification.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Rom.5.17">For if by one man's offense death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.7.1">Do you not know, brothers, (for I speak to them that know the law,) that the law has dominion over a man as long as he lives?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.7.2">For the woman which has a husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he lives; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Rom.7.3">So then if, while her husband lives, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Rom.7.4">Therefore, my brothers, you also have become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that you should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.7.5">For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.7.6">But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead in which we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.7.7">What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. No, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, You shall not covet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.7.8">But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of desire. For without the law sin was dead.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.7.10">And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.7.11">For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.7.12">Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.8.3">For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.10.1">Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.10.2">For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.10.3">For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.10.4">For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believes.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.10.6">But the righteousness which is of faith speaks on this wise, Say not in your heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:)</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Rom.10.7">Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Rom.10.8">But what says it? The word is close you, even in your mouth, and in your heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.10.9">That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you shall be saved.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.10.10">For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.10.11">For the scripture says, Whosoever believes on him shall not be ashamed.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Rom.10.12">For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Rom.10.13">For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.10.14">How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.10.15">And how shall they preach, unless they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.10.17">So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Rom.10.19">But I say, Did not Israel know? First Moses says, I will provoke you to jealousy by them that are no people, and by a foolish nation I will anger you.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rom.15.9">And that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy; as it is written, For this cause I will confess to you among the Gentiles, and sing unto your name.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.10">And again he says, Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.11">And again, Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles; and laud him, all you people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.12">And again, Isaiah says, There shall be a root of Jesse, and he that shall rise to reign over the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles trust.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.13">Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.14">And I myself also am persuaded of you, my brothers, that you also are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, able also to admonish one another.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.15">Nevertheless, brothers, I have written the more boldly unto you in some sort, as putting you in mind, because of the grace that is given to me of God,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.16">That I should be the minister of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles, ministering the gospel of God, that the offering up of the Gentiles might be acceptable, being sanctified by the Holy Ghost.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.17">I have therefore whereof I may glory through Jesus Christ in those things which pertain to God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.18">For I will not dare to speak of any of those things which Christ has not wrought by me, to make the Gentiles obedient, by word and deed,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.19">Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.20">Yes, so have I strived to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, lest I should build upon another man's foundation:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.21">But as it is written, To whom he was not spoken of, they shall see: and they that have not heard shall understand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.22">For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.23">But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.24">Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way to there by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.25">But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.26">For it has pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.27">It has pleased them truthfully; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.28">When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.29">And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fullness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.30">Now I beseech you, brothers, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.31">That I may be delivered from them that do not believe in Judaea; and that my service which I have for Jerusalem may be accepted of the saints;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Rom.15.32">That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.1">Paul called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.2">Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both their's and our's:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.3">Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.4">I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.5">That in everything you are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.6">Just as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.7">So that you come behind in no gift; waiting for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.8">Who shall also confirm you unto the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.9">God is faithful, by whom you were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.10">Now I beseech you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.11">For it has been declared unto me of you, my brothers, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.12">Now this I say, that each of you says, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.13">Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were you baptized in the name of Paul?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.14">I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.15">Lest any should say that I had baptized in my own name.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.16">And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.17">For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.18">For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.19">For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.20">Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.21">For after in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom did not know God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.22">For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.23">But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.24">But unto those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.25">Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.26">For you see your calling, brothers, that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.27">But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.28">And base things of the world, and things which are despised, has God chosen, yes, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.29">That no flesh should glory in his presence.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.30">But of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.1.31">That, according as it is written, He that glories, let him glory in the Lord.</verse>
|

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="1Cor.1.31">
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.1">And I, brothers, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.2">For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.3">And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.4">And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.5">That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.6">Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.7">But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.8">Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.9">But as it is written, eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.10">But God has revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.11">For what man knows the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knows no man, but the Spirit of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.12">Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.13">Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Ghost teaches; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.14">But the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.15">But he that is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.2.16">For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="1Cor.2.16">
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.1">And I, brothers, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, just as unto babes in Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.2">I have fed you with milk, and not with food: for until now you were not able to bear it, neither yet now are you able.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.3">For you are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are you not carnal, and walk as men?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.4">For while one says, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are you not carnal?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.5">Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom you believed, just as the Lord gave to every man?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.6">I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.7">So then neither is he that plants any thing, neither he that waters; but God that gives the increase.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.8">Now he that plants and he that waters are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labor.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.9">For we are laborers together with God: you are God's husbandry, you are God's building.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.10">According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds thereon. But let every man take heed how he builds thereupon.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.11">For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.12">Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.13">Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.14">If any man's work abide which he has built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.15">If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.16">Do you not know that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.17">If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.18">Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.19">For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.20">And again, The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.21">Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are your's;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.22">Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are your's;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.3.23">And you are Christ's; and Christ is God's.</verse>
|

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="1Cor.3.23">
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.1">Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.2">Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.3">But with me it is a very small thing that I should be judged of you, or of man's judgment: yes, I judge not my own self.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.4">For I know nothing by myself; yet am I not hereby justified: but he that judges me is the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.5">Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.6">And these things, brothers, I have in a figure transferred to myself and to Apollos for your sakes; that you might learn in us not to think of men above that which is written, that no one of you be puffed up for one against another.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.7">For who makes you to differ from another? and what have you that you did not receive? now if you did receive it, why do you glory, as if you had not received it?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.8">Now you are full, now you are rich, you have reigned as kings without us: and I would to God you did reign, that we also might reign with you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.9">For I think that God has set forth us the apostles last, as it were appointed to death: for we are made a spectacle unto the world, and to angels, and to men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.10">We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are honorable, but we are despised.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.11">Even unto this present hour we both hunger, and thirst, and are naked, and are buffeted, and have no certain dwelling place;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.12">And labor, working with our own hands: being reviled, we bless; being persecuted, we tolerate it:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.13">Being defamed, we entreat: we are made as the filth of the world, and are the offscouring of all things unto this day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.14">I write not these things to shame you, but as my beloved sons I warn you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.15">For though you have ten thousand instructors in Christ, yet have you not many fathers: for in Christ Jesus I have begotten you through the gospel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.16">Therefore I beseech you, be followers of me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.17">For this cause have I sent unto you Timotheus, who is my beloved son, and faithful in the Lord, who shall bring you into remembrance of my ways which be in Christ, as I teach every where in every church.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.18">Now some are puffed up, as though I would not come to you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.19">But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of those who are puffed up, but the power.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.4.20">For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.4.21">What will you? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?</verse>

<chapter osisID="1Cor.4.21">
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.1">It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.2">And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that has done this deed might be taken away from among you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.3">For I truthfully, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that has so done this deed,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.4">In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.5">To deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.6">Your glorying is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.7">Purge out therefore the old leaven, that you may be a new lump, as you are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.8">Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.9">I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.10">yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must you needs go out of the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.11">But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one no not to eat.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.12">For what have I to do to judge them also that are outside? do not you judge them that are within?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.5.13">But them that are outside God judges. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.</verse>

<chapter osisID="1Cor.5.13">
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.1">Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust, and not before the saints?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.2">Do you not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.3">Do you not know that we shall judge angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.4">If then you have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.5">I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brothers?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.6">But brother goes to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.7">Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because you go to law one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? why do you not rather permit yourselves to be defrauded?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.8">No, you do wrong, and defraud, and that your brothers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.9">Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.10">Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.11">And such were some of you: but you are washed, but you are sanctified, but you are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.12">All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.13">Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.14">And God has both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by his own power.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.15">Do you not know that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.16">What? do you not know that he which is joined to a harlot is one body? for two, says he, shall be one flesh.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.17">But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.18">Flee fornication. Every sin that a man does is outside the body; but he that commits fornication sins against his own body.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.19">What? do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.6.20">For you are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.</verse>

|
<chapter osisID="1Cor.6.20">
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.1">Now concerning the things whereof you wrote unto me: It is good for a man not to touch a woman.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.2">Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.3">Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise also the wife unto the husband.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.4">The wife has not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise also the husband has not power of his own body, but the wife.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.5">Defraud you not one the other, unless it be with consent for a time, that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your lack of self control.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.6">But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.7">For I would that all men were just as I myself. But every man has his proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.8">I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide just as I.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.9">But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry than to burn.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.10">And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the wife depart from her husband:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.11">But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried or be reconciled to her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.12">But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother has a wife that believes not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not put her away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.13">And the woman which has a husband that believes not, and if he be pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.14">For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.15">But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister is not under bondage in such cases: but God has called us to peace.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.16">For what know you, O wife, whether you shall save your husband? or how know you, O man, whether you shall save your wife?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.17">But as God has distributed to every man, as the Lord has called every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.18">Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.19">Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the keeping of the commandments of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.20">Let every man abide in the same calling in which he was called.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.21">Are you called being a servant? care not for it: but if you may be made free, use it rather.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.22">For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.23">You are bought with a price; be not you the servants of men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.24">Brethren, let every man, in which he is called, in it abide with God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.25">Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that has obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.26">I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, I say, that it is good for a man so to be.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.27">Are you bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Are you loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.28">But and if you marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marry, she has not sinned. Nevertheless such shall have trouble in the flesh: but I spare you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.29">But this I say, brothers, the time is short: it remains, that both they that have wives be as though they had none;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.30">And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.31">And they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passes away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.32">But I would have you without carefulness. He that is unmarried cares for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.33">But he that is married cares for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.34">There is difference also between a wife and a virgin. The unmarried woman cares for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married cares for the things of the world, how she may please her husband.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.35">And this I speak for your own profit; not that I may cast a snare upon you, but for that which is comely, and that you may attend upon the Lord without distraction.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.36">But if any man think that he behaves himself improperly toward his virgin, if she pass the flower of her age, and need so require, let him do what he will, he sins not: let them marry.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.37">Nevertheless he that stands steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but has power over his own will, and has so decreed in his heart that he will keep his virgin, does well.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.38">So then he that gives her in marriage does well; but he that gives her not in marriage does better.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.39">The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.7.40">But she is happier if she so abide, after my judgment: and I think also that I have the Spirit of God.</verse>

<chapter osisID="1Cor.7.40">
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.8.1">Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.8.2">And if any man think that he knows any thing, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.</verse>

|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.8.8">But food commends us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.8.9">But take heed lest by any means this liberty of your's become a stumbling block to them that are weak.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="1Cor.8.10">For if any man see you who have knowledge sit at food in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.8.11">And through your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.11.23">For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.11.24">And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.11.25">After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do you, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.12.4">Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.12.7">But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man for the profit of all.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.12.14">For the body is not one member, but many.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.12.22">No, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="1Cor.12.23">And those members of the body, which we think to be less honorable, upon these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="1Cor.12.24">For our comely parts have no need: but God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that part which lacked.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.12.25">That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Cor.15.20">But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the first fruits of them that slept.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.21">For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection of the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.22">For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.23">But every man in his own order: Christ the first fruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.24">Then comes the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.25">For he must reign, till he has put all enemies under his feet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.26">The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.27">For he has put all things under his feet. But when he says all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.28">And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.29">Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? why are they then baptized for the dead?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.30">And why stand we in jeopardy every hour?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.31">I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our LORD, I die daily.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.32">If after the manner of men I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantages it me, if the dead rise not? let us eat and drink; for tomorrow we die.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.33">Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.34">Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak this to your shame.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.35">But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.36">You fool, that which you sow is not given life, unless it die:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.37">And that which you sow, you do not sow that body that shall be, but bore grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other grain:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.38">But God gives it a body as it has pleased him, and to every seed his own body.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.39">All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.40">There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.41">There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differs from another star in glory.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.42">So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.43">It is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.44">It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.45">And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a life-giving spirit.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.46">Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.47">The first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.48">As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.49">And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.50">Now this I say, brothers, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.51">Behold, I show you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.52">In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.53">For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.54">So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.55">O death, where is your sting? O grave, where is your victory?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.56">The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.57">But thanks be to God, which gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Cor.15.58">Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as you know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.</verse>

<chapter osisID="1Cor.16.24">
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.1">Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.2">Grace be to you and peace from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.3">Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.4">Who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, by the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.5">For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds by Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.6">And whether we be afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective in the enduring of the same sufferings which we also suffer: or whether we be comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.7">And our hope of you is steadfast, knowing, that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so shall you be also of the consolation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.8">For we would not, brothers, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us in Asia, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.9">But we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God which raises the dead:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.10">Who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.11">You also helping together by prayer for us, that for the gift bestowed upon us by the means of many persons thanks may be given by many on our behalf.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.12">For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conduct in the world, and more abundantly toward you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.13">For we write none other things unto you, than what you read or acknowledge; and I trust you shall acknowledge even to the end;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.14">As also you have acknowledged us in part, that we are your rejoicing, even as you also are our's in the day of the Lord Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.15">And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that you might have a second benefit;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.16">And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.17">When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yes yes, and no no?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.18">But as God is true, our word toward you was not yes and no.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.19">For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yes and no, but in him was yes.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.20">For all the promises of God in him are yes, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.21">Now he which establishes us with you in Christ, and has anointed us, is God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.22">Who has also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.23">Moreover I call God for a record upon my soul, that to spare you I came not as yet unto Corinth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.1.24">Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith you stand.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="2Cor.1.24">
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.1">But I determined this with myself, that I would not come again to you in heaviness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.2">For if I make you sorry, who is he then that makes me glad, but the same which is made sorry by me?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.3">And I wrote this same unto you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow from them of whom I ought to rejoice; having confidence in you all, that my joy is the joy of you all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.4">For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears; not that you should be grieved, but that you might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.5">But if any have caused grief, he has not grieved me, but in part: that I may not overcharge you all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.6">Sufficient to such a man is this punishment, which was inflicted of many.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.7">So that contrariwise you ought rather to forgive him, and comfort him, lest perhaps such a one should be swallowed up with overmuch sorrow.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.8">Therefore I beseech you that you would confirm your love toward him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.9">For to this end also did I write, that I might know the proof of you, whether you be obedient in all things.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.10">To whom you forgive any thing, I forgive also: for if I forgave any thing, to whom I forgave it, for your sakes forgave I it in the person of Christ;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.11">Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.12">Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.13">I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother: but taking my leave of them, I went from there into Macedonia.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.14">Now thanks be unto God, which always causes us to triumph in Christ, and makes manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.15">For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.16">To the one we are the savour of death unto death; and to the other the savour of life unto life. And who is sufficient for these things?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.2.17">For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God speak we in Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="2Cor.2.17">
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.1">Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.2">You are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.3">Since as you are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.4">And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.5">Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.6">Who also has made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter kills, but the spirit gives life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.7">But if the ministration of death, written and engraved in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.8">How shall not the ministration of the spirit be rather glorious?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.9">For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more does the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.10">For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excels.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.11">For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remains is glorious.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.12">Seeing then that we have such hope, we use great plainness of speech:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.13">And not as Moses, which put a veil over his face, that the children of Israel could not steadfastly look to the end of that which is abolished:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.14">But their minds were blinded: for until this day remains the same veil untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which veil is done away in Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.15">But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the veil is upon their heart.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.16">Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the veil shall be taken away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.17">Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.3.18">But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the LORD.</verse>

<chapter osisID="2Cor.3.18">
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.1">Therefore seeing we have this ministry, as we have received mercy, we faint not;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.2">But have renounced the hidden things of dishonesty, not walking in craftiness, nor handling the word of God deceitfully; but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.3">But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.4">In whom the god of this world has blinded the minds of those who believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.5">For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.6">For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, has shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.7">But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.8">We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.9">Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.10">Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.11">For we which live are always delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.12">So then death works in us, but life in you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.13">We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therefore speak;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.14">Knowing that he which raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also by Jesus, and shall present us with you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.4.15">For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="2Cor.4.16">For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="2Cor.4.17">For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, works for us a far more exceedingly and eternal weight of glory;</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="2Cor.4.18">While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.</verse>

|

<verse osisID="2Cor.8.1">Moreover, brothers, we do you to know of the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.2">That in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.3">For to their power, I bear record, yes, and beyond their power they were willing of themselves;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.4">Praying us with much entreaty that we would receive the gift, and take upon us the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.5">And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.6">Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.7">Therefore, as you abound in everything, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that you abound in this grace also.</verse>

<verse osisID="2Cor.8.8">I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="2Cor.8.9">For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might be rich.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.10">And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.11">Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which you have.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.12">For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man has, and not according to that he has not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.13">For I mean not that other men be eased, and you burdened:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.14">But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality:</verse>

|
|
|

<verse osisID="2Cor.8.16">But thanks be to God, which put the same earnest care into the heart of Titus for you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.17">For indeed he accepted the exhortation; but being more forward, of his own accord he went unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.18">And we have sent with him the brother, whose praise is in the gospel throughout all the churches;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.19">And not that only, but who was also chosen of the churches to travel with us with this grace, which is administered by us to the glory of the same Lord, and declaration of your ready mind:</verse>

|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.20">Avoiding this, that no man should blame us in this abundance which is administered by us:</verse>

<verse osisID="2Cor.8.21">Providing for honest things, not only in the sight of the Lord, but also in the sight of men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.22">And we have sent with them our brother, whom we have oftentimes proved diligent in many things, but now much more diligent, upon the great confidence which I have in you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.8.23">Whether any do inquire of Titus, he is my partner and fellow helper concerning you: or our brothers be inquired of, they are the messengers of the churches, and the glory of Christ.</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.9.2">For I know the forwardness of your mind, for which I boast of you to them of Macedonia, that Achaia was ready a year ago; and your zeal has provoked very many.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.9.3">yet have I sent the brothers, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, you may be ready:</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.9.4">Lest haply if they of Macedonia come with me, and find you unprepared, we (that we say not, you) should be ashamed in this same confident boasting.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.9.5">Therefore I thought it necessary to exhort the brothers, that they would go before unto you, and make up beforehand your bounty, whereof you had notice before, that the same might be ready, as a matter of bounty, and not as of covetousness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.9.6">But this I say, He which sows sparingly shall reap also sparingly; and he which sows bountifully shall reap also bountifully.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="2Cor.9.7">Every man according as he purposes in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loves a cheerful giver.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="2Cor.9.8">And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:</verse>

<verse osisID="2Cor.9.13">Whiles by the experiment of this ministration they glorify God for your professed subjection unto the gospel of Christ, and for your liberal distribution unto them, and unto all men;</verse>

<verse osisID="2Cor.12.1">It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.2">I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knows;) such a one caught up to the third heaven.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.3">And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knows;)</verse>

|
|
|

<verse osisID="2Cor.12.6">For though I would desire to glory, I shall not be a fool; for I will say the truth: but now I hold back, lest any man should think of me above that which he sees me to be, or that he hears of me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.7">And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.8">For this thing I asked the Lord three times, that it might depart from me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.9">And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for you: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.10">Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.11">I am become a fool in glorying; you have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.12">Truly the signs of an apostle were wrought among you in all patience, in signs, and wonders, and mighty deeds.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.13">For what is it in which you were inferior to other churches, except it be that I myself was not burdensome to you? forgive me this wrong.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.14">Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not your's but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.15">And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved.</verse>

|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Cor.12.21">And lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and that I shall bewail many which have sinned already, and have not repented of the uncleanness and fornication and lasciviousness which they have committed.</verse>

<verse osisID="2Cor.13.2">I told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to those who heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:</verse>

<verse osisID="2Cor.13.3">Since you seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.</verse>

<chapter osisID="2Cor.13.14">
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.1">Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.2">And all the brothers which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.3">Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.4">Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.5">To whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.6">I marvel that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.7">Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.8">But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.9">As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that you have received, let him be accursed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.10">For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.11">But I certify you, brothers, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.12">For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.13">For you have heard of my manner of life in time past in the Jews' religion, that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.14">And profited in the Jews' religion above many my equals in my own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.15">But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.16">To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.17">Neither went I up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.18">Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.19">But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.20">Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.21">Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.22">And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.23">But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preaches the faith which once he destroyed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.1.24">And they glorified God in me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Gal.1.24">
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.1">Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.2">And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.3">But not even Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.4">And that because of false brothers unawares brought in, who came in secretly to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.5">To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that the truth of the gospel might continue with you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.6">But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were, it makes no matter to me: God accepts no man's person:) for they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.7">But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.8">(For he that wrought effectively in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.9">And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.10">Only they would that we should remember the poor; the same which I also was eager to do.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.11">But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.12">For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they had come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.13">And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.14">But when I saw that they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto Peter before them all, If you, being a Jew, live after the manner of Gentiles, and not as do the Jews, why do you compel the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.15">We who are Jews by nature, and not sinners of the Gentiles,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.16">Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.17">But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is therefore Christ the minister of sin? God forbid.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.18">For if I build again the things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.19">For I through the law am dead to the law, that I might live unto God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.20">I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ lives in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.2.21">I do not frustrate the grace of God: for if righteousness come by the law, then Christ is dead in vain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Gal.2.21">
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.1">O foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ has been evidently set forth, crucified among you?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.2">This only would I learn of you, Received you the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.3">Are you so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are you now made perfect by the flesh?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.4">Have you suffered so many things in vain? if it be yet in vain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.5">He therefore that ministers to you the Spirit, and works miracles among you, does he do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.6">Just as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.7">Know you therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.8">And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In you shall all nations be blessed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.9">So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.10">For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continues not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.11">But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.12">And the law is not of faith: but, The man that does them shall live in them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.13">Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangs on a tree:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.14">That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.15">Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulls, or adds thereto.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.16">Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He says not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to your seed, which is Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.17">And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of no effect.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.18">For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.19">Why then serves the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.20">Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.21">Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, truthfully righteousness should have been by the law.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.22">But the scripture has concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.23">But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.24">Therefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.25">But after faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.26">For you are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.27">For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.28">There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in Christ Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.3.29">And if you be Christ's, then are you Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.</verse>
|
|
|

</chapter>

<chapter osisID="Gal.3.29">
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.1">Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differs nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.2">But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.3">Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.4">But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.5">To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.6">And because you are sons, God has sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.7">Therefore you are no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.</verse>

<verse osisID="Gal.4.8">Howbeit then, when you did not know God, you did service unto those who by nature are no gods.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Gal.4.10">You observe days, and months, and times, and years.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.13">You know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.14">And my temptation which was in my flesh you looked down upon not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, just as Christ Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.15">Where is then the blessedness you spoke of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.16">Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="Gal.4.17">They zealously affect you, but not well; yes, they would exclude you, that you might affect them.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Gal.4.21">Tell me, you that desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law?</verse>

<verse osisID="Gal.4.24">Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which genders to bondage, which is Agar.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Gal.4.25">For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answers to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.</verse>

<verse osisID="Gal.5.2">Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if you be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.</verse>

<verse osisID="Gal.5.21">Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.</verse>

<verse osisID="Gal.5.22">But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,</verse>

|

<verse osisID="Phil.1.1">Paul and Timotheus, the servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus which are at Philippi, with the bishops and deacons:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.2">Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.3">I thank my God upon every remembrance of you,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.4">Always in every prayer of my for you all making request with joy,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.5">For your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.6">Being confident of this very thing, that he which has begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.7">Just as it is suitable for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defense and confirmation of the gospel, you all are partakers of my grace.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.8">For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the insides of Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.9">And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.10">That you may approve things that are excellent; that you may be sincere and without offense till the day of Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.11">Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.12">But I would you should understand, brothers, that the things which happened unto me have fallen out rather unto the furtherance of the gospel;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.13">So that my bonds in Christ are manifest in all the palace, and in all other places;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.14">And many of the brothers in the Lord, growing confident by my bonds, are much more bold to speak the word without fear.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.15">Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.16">The one preach Christ of contention, not sincerely, supposing to add affliction to my bonds:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.17">But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defense of the gospel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.18">What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretense, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I in it do rejoice, yes, and will rejoice.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.19">For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.20">According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.21">For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.22">But if I live in the flesh, this is the fruit of my labor: yet what I shall choose I know not.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.23">For I am in a tight place between the two, having a desire to depart, an to be with Christ; which is far better:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.24">Nevertheless to abide in the flesh is more needed by you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.25">And having this confidence, I know that I shall abide and continue with you all for your furtherance and joy of faith;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.26">That your rejoicing may be more abundant in Jesus Christ for me by my coming to you again.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.27">Only let your conduct be as it becomes the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.28">And in nothing terrified by your adversaries: which is to them an evident token of perdition, but to you of salvation, and that of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.29">For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.1.30">Having the same conflict which you saw in me, and now hear to be in me.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Phil.1.30">
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.1">If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any insides and mercies,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.2">Fulfill you my joy, that you be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.3">Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.4">Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.5">Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.6">Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.7">But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.8">And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.9">Therefore God also has highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.10">That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.11">And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.12">Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.13">For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.14">Do all things without murmurings and disputings:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.15">That you may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom you shine as lights in the world;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.16">Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither labored in vain.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.17">Yes, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.18">For the same cause also do you joy, and rejoice with me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.19">But I trust in the Lord Jesus to send Timotheus shortly unto you, that I also may be of good comfort, when I know your state.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.20">For I have no man likeminded, who will naturally care for your state.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.21">For all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.22">But you know the proof of him, that, as a son with the father, he has served with me in the gospel.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.23">Him therefore I hope to send presently, so soon as I shall see how it will go with me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.24">But I trust in the Lord that I also myself shall come shortly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.25">Yet I supposed it necessary to send to you Epaphroditus, my brother, and companion in labor, and fellow soldier, but your messenger, and he that ministered to my wants.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.26">For he longed after you all, and was full of heaviness, because that you had heard that he had been sick.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.27">For indeed he was sick close unto death: but God had mercy on him; and not on him only, but on me also, lest I should have sorrow upon sorrow.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.28">I sent him therefore the more carefully, that, when you see him again, you may rejoice, and that I may be the less sorrowful.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.29">Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.2.30">Because for the work of Christ he was close unto death, not regarding his life, to supply your lack of service toward me.</verse>

<chapter osisID="Phil.2.30">
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.1">Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. To write the same things to you, to me indeed is not grievous, but for you it is safe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.2">Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.3">For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.4">Though I might also have confidence in the flesh. If any other man thinks that he has whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.5">Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.6">Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the righteousness which is in the law, blameless.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.7">But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.8">Yes doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.9">And be found in him, not having my own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.10">That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.11">If by any means I might attain unto the resurrection of the dead.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.12">Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.13">Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.14">I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.15">Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing you be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Phil.3.16">Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="Phil.3.17">Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark those who walk so as you have us for an example.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Col.2.19">And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increases with the increase of God.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Thess.2.3">For our exhortation was not of deceit, nor of uncleanness, nor in guile:</verse>

|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Thess.2.9">For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail: for laboring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="1Thess.2.10">You are witnesses, and God also, how devoutly and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Thess.2.11">As you know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father does his children,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Thess.2.12">That you would walk worthy of God, who has called you unto his kingdom and glory.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Thess.2.13">For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when you received the word of God which you heard of us, you received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectively works also in you that believe.</verse>

<verse osisID="2Thess.1.2">Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.1.3">We are bound to thank God always for you, brothers, as it is suitable, because that your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all toward each other abounds;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.1.4">So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.1.5">Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.1.6">Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.1.7">And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,</verse>

|
<verse osisID="2Thess.1.8">In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:</verse>

|
<verse osisID="2Thess.1.9">Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;</verse>

<verse osisID="2Thess.1.11">Therefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:</verse>

<chapter osisID="2Thess.1.12">
|

<verse osisID="2Thess.2.1">Now we beseech you, brothers, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,</verse>

|
|

<verse osisID="2Thess.2.2">That you be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="2Thess.2.3">Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, unless there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;</verse>

<verse osisID="2Thess.2.4">Who opposes and exalts himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sits in the temple of God, showing himself that he is God.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="2Thess.2.5">Remember you not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?</verse>

|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.6">And now you know what withholds that he might be revealed in his time.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.7">For the mystery of iniquity does already work: only he who now lets will let, until he be taken out of the way.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.8">And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.9">Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.10">And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.11">And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.12">That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.13">But we are bound to give thanks always to God for you, brothers beloved of the Lord, because God has from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.14">Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>

<verse osisID="2Thess.2.15">Therefore, brothers, stand fast, and hold the traditions which you have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.2.16">Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which has loved us, and has given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace,</verse>

<chapter osisID="2Thess.2.17">
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.1">Finally, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, just as it is with you:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.2">And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all men have not faith.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.3">But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep you from evil.</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="2Thess.3.5">And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.6">Now we command you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you withdraw yourselves from every brother that walks disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.7">For yourselves know how you ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.8">Neither did we eat any man's bread for nothing; but wrought with labor and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.9">Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an example unto you to follow us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.10">For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.11">For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.12">Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.13">But you, brothers, be not weary in well doing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.14">And if any man obey not our word by this letter, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.15">Yet count him not as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Thess.3.16">Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all.</verse>

<verse osisID="2Thess.3.17">The salutation of Paul with my own hand, which is the token in every letter: so I write.</verse>

<verse osisID="2Tim.1.2">To Timothy, my dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, and peace, from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.3">I thank God, whom I serve from my forefathers with pure conscience, that without ceasing I have remembrance of you in my prayers night and day;</verse>
|

|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.4">Greatly desiring to see you, being mindful of your tears, that I may be filled with joy;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.5">When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in you, which dwelled first in your grandmother Lois, and your mother Eunice; and I am persuaded that in you also.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.6">Therefore I put you in remembrance that you stir up the gift of God, which is in you by the putting on of my hands.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.7">For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.8">Be not you therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be you partaker of the afflictions of the gospel according to the power of God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.9">Who has saved us, and called us with a holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.10">But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who has abolished death, and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.11">Whereunto I am appointed a preacher, and an apostle, and a teacher of the Gentiles.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.12">For the which cause I also suffer these things: nevertheless I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that he is able to keep that which I have committed unto him against that day.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.1.13">Hold fast the form of sound words, which you have heard of me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.</verse>

<verse osisID="2Tim.1.17">But, when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently, and found me.</verse>
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

<verse osisID="2Tim.2.10">Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.2.11">It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:</verse>

|
<verse osisID="2Tim.2.12">If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:</verse>

<verse osisID="2Tim.2.14">Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.2.15">Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.2.16">But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="2Tim.2.19">Nevertheless the foundation of God stands sure, having this seal, The Lord knows them that are his. And, Let every one that names the name of Christ depart from iniquity.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.2.20">But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.2.21">If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.2.22">Flee also yethful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, love, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Tim.2.23">But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="2Tim.3.12">Yes, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.</verse>

<verse osisID="Titus.1.1">Paul, a servant of God, and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect, and the acknowledging of the truth which is after godliness;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.2">In hope of eternal life, which God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.3">But has in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of God our Saviour;</verse>

<verse osisID="Titus.1.5">For this cause left I you in Crete, that you should set in order the things that are wanting, and ordain elders in every city, as I had appointed you:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.6">If any be blameless, the husband of one wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.7">For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not self willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.8">But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.9">Holding fast the faithful word as he has been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the opponents.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.10">For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.11">Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Titus.1.12">One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, The Cretians are always liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.13">This witness is true. Therefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.14">Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Titus.1.15">Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.</verse>

<verse osisID="Titus.2.11">For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men,</verse>

|
|

<verse osisID="Titus.3.4">But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,</verse>

<verse osisID="Heb.1.1">God, who at various times and in different manners spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.2">Has in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he has appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.3">Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.4">Being made so much better than the angels, as he has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.5">For unto which of the angels said he at any time, You are my Son, this day have I begotten you? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.6">And again, when he brings in the firstbegotten into the world, he says, And let all the angels of God worship him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.7">And of the angels he says, Who makes his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.8">But unto the Son he says, Your throne, O God, is forever and ever: a scepter of righteousness is the scepter of your kingdom.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.9">You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness above your fellows.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.10">And, You, Lord, in the beginning have laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of your hands:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.11">They shall perish; but you remain; and they all shall wax old as does a garment;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.12">And as a vesture shall you fold them up, and they shall be changed: but you are the same, and your years shall not fail.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.13">But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.1.14">Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Heb.1.14">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.1">Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.2">For if the word spoken by angels was steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.3">How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.4">God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with different miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.5">For unto the angels has he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.6">But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that you are mindful of him? or the son of man that you visit him?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.7">You made him a little lower than the angels; you crowned him with glory and honor, and did set him over the works of your hands:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.8">You have put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.9">But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.10">For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.11">For both he that sanctifies and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brothers,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.12">Saying, I will declare your name unto my brothers, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.13">And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God has given me.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.14">Since the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.15">And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.16">For truthfully he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.17">Therefore in all things it was proper for him to be made like unto his brothers, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make reconciliation for the sins of the people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.2.18">For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able to help them that are tempted.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Heb.2.18">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.1">Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.2">Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.3">For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who has builded the house has more honor than the house.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.4">For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things is God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.5">And Moses truthfully was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.6">But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.7">Therefore (as the Holy Ghost says, Today if you will hear his voice,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.8">Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.9">When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.10">Therefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.11">So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.12">Take heed, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.13">But exhort one another daily, while it is called Today; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.14">For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence steadfast unto the end;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.15">While it is said, Today if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.16">For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.17">But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.18">And to whom swore he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.3.19">So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Heb.3.19">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.1">Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.2">For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.3">For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.4">For he spoke in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.5">And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.6">Seeing therefore it remains that some must enter in it, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.7">Again, he limits a certain day, saying in David, Today, after so long a time; as it is said, Today if you will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.8">For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.9">There remains therefore a rest to the people of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.10">For he that is entered into his rest, he also has ceased from his own works, as God did from his.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.11">Let us labor therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.12">For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.13">Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.14">Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.4.15">For we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted just as we are, yet without sin.</verse>
|
|

<chapter osisID="Heb.4.16">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.1">For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.2">Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.3">And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.4">And no man takes this honor unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.5">So also Christ glorified not himself to be made a high priest; but he that said unto him, You are my Son, today have I begotten you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.6">As he says also in another place, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchisedec.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.7">Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.8">Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.9">And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.10">Called of God a high priest after the order of Melchisedec.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.11">Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing you are dull of hearing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.12">For when for the time you ought to be teachers, you have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and have become such as have need of milk, and not of strong food.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.13">For every one that uses milk is unskillfully in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.5.14">But strong food belongs to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Heb.5.14">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.1">Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.2">Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.3">And this will we do, if God permit.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.4">For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.5">And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.6">If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.7">For the earth which drinks in the rain that comes often upon it, and brings forth herbs suitable for them by whom it is dressed, receives blessing from God:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.8">But that which bears thorns and briers is rejected, and is close unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.9">But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.10">For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which you have showed toward his name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.11">And we desire that every one of you do show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.12">That you be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.13">For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he swore by himself,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.14">Saying, Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.15">And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.16">For men truthfully swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.17">Wherein God, willing more abundantly to show unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.18">That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.19">Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters into that within the veil;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.6.20">Where the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made a high priest forever after the order of Melchisedec.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Heb.6.20">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.1">For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.2">To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.3">Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abides a priest continually.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.4">Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.5">And truthfully they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brothers, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.6">But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.7">And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.8">And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.9">And as I may so say, Levi also, who receives tithes, paid tithes in Abraham.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.10">For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.11">If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.12">For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.13">For he of whom these things are spoken pertains to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.14">For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.15">And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there arises another priest,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.16">Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.17">For he testifies, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchisedec.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.18">For there is truthfully a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness of it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.19">For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw close unto God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.20">And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.21">(For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord swore and will not repent, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchisedec:)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.22">By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.23">And they truly were many priests, because they were not permitted to continue by reason of death:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.24">But this man, because he continues ever, has an unchangeable priesthood.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.25">Therefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever lives to make intercession for them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.26">For such a high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.27">Who needs not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.7.28">For the law makes men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, makes the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Heb.7.28">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.1">Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such a high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.2">A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.3">For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: therefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.4">For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.5">Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, says he, that you make all things according to the pattern showed to you in the mount.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.6">But now has he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.7">For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.8">For finding fault with them, he says, Behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.9">Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, says the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.10">For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.11">And they shall not teach every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.12">For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.8.13">In that he says, A new covenant, he has made the first old. Now that which decays and grows old is ready to vanish away.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Heb.8.13">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.1">Then truthfully the first covenant had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.2">For there was a tabernacle made; the first, in which was the candlestick, and the table, and the showbread; which is called the sanctuary.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.3">And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.4">Which had the golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid round about with gold, in which was the golden pot that had manna, and Aaron's rod that budded, and the tables of the covenant;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.5">And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercy seat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.6">Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.7">But into the second went the high priest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offered for himself, and for the errors of the people:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.8">The Holy Ghost this signifying, that the way into the holiest of all was not yet made manifest, while as the first tabernacle was yet standing:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.9">Which was a figure for the time then present, in which were offered both gifts and sacrifices, that could not make him that did the service perfect, as pertaining to the conscience;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.10">Which stood only in foods and drinks, and different washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.11">But Christ being come a high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.12">Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.13">For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifies to the purifying of the flesh:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.14">How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.15">And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.16">For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.17">For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator lives.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.18">Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.19">For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.20">Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God has enjoined unto you.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.21">Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.22">And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.23">It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.24">For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.25">Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters into the holy place every year with blood of others;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.26">For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world has he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.27">And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.9.28">So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="Heb.9.28">
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.1">For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things, can never with those sacrifices which they offered year by year continually make the comers thereunto perfect.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.2">For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshipers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.3">But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins every year.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.4">For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.5">Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, Sacrifice and offering you would not, but a body have you prepared me:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.6">In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you have had no pleasure.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.7">Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do your will, O God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.8">Above when he said, Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin you would not, neither had pleasure in it; which are offered by the law;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.9">Then said he, Lo, I come to do your will, O God. He takes away the first, that he may establish the second.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.10">By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.11">And every priest stands daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.12">But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.13">From now on expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.14">For by one offering he has perfected forever them that are sanctified.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.15">Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.16">This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.17">And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.18">Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.19">Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.20">By a new and living way, which he has consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.21">And having a high priest over the house of God;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.22">Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.23">Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.24">And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.25">Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as you see the day approaching.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.26">For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.27">But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.28">He that looked down upon Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.29">Of how much sorer punishment, suppose you, shall he be thought worthy, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has counted the blood of the covenant, with which he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and has done despite unto the Spirit of grace?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.30">For we know him that has said, Vengeance belongs unto me, I will recompense, says the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.31">It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.32">But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after you were illuminated, you endured a great fight of afflictions;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.33">Partly, while you were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, while you became companions of them that were so used.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.34">For you had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the plundering of your goods, knowing in yourselves that you have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.35">Cast not away therefore your confidence, which has great recompense of reward.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.36">For you have need of patience, that, after you have done the will of God, you might receive the promise.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="Heb.10.37">For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Heb.10.38">Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="Heb.11.5">By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.</verse>

<verse osisID="Heb.11.11">Through faith also Sara herself received strength to conceive seed, and was delivered of a child when she was past age, because she judged him faithful who had promised.</verse>

<verse osisID="Heb.11.13">These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.</verse>
|
|

<verse osisID="Heb.11.25">Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;</verse>

|
<verse osisID="Heb.11.32">And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell of Gedeon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthae; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:</verse>

|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.2">Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.3">Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy has begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.4">To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fades not away, reserved in heaven for you,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.5">Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.6">Wherein you greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, you are in heaviness through manifold temptations:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.7">That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honor and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.8">Whom having not seen, you love; in whom, though now you see him not, yet believing, you rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.9">Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.10">Of which salvation the prophets have inquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.11">Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.12">Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.13">Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.14">As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:</verse>
|
|
|

<verse osisID="1Pet.1.15">But as he which has called you is holy, so be holy in all manner of conduct;</verse>

<verse osisID="1Pet.1.17">And if you call on the Father, who without respect of persons judges according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.18">Since as you know that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conduct received by tradition from your fathers;</verse>

|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.19">But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.20">Who truthfully was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.21">Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.22">Seeing you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brothers, see that you love one another with a pure heart fervently:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.23">Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which lives and abides forever.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.24">For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower of it falls away:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.1.25">But the word of the Lord endures forever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you.</verse>

<chapter osisID="1Pet.1.25">

<verse osisID="1Pet.2.3">If so be you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.</verse>
|

|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.7">Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.8">And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offenses, even to those who stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.9">But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people; that you should show forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.10">Which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God: which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.11">Dearly beloved, I beseech you as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.12">Having your conduct honest among the Gentiles: that, whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may by your good works, which they shall behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.13">Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.14">Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.15">For so is the will of God, that with well doing you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.16">As free, and not using your liberty for a cloak of maliciousness, but as the servants of God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.17">Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.18">Servants, be subject to your masters with all fear; not only to the good and gentle, but also to the forward.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.19">For this is thank worthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.20">For what glory is it, if, when you be buffeted for your faults, you shall take it patiently? but if, when you do well, and suffer for it, you take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.21">For even hereunto were you called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow his steps:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.22">Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.23">Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judges righteously:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.24">Who his own self bore our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes you were healed.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.2.25">For you were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.</verse>

</chapter>
|
|
<chapter osisID="1Pet.2.25">
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.1">Likewise, you wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conduct of the wives;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.2">While they behold your chaste conduct coupled with fear.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.3">Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.4">But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.5">For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.6">Just as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters you are, as long as you do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.7">Likewise, you husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honor unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.8">Finally, be you all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brothers, be pitiful, be courteous:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.9">Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that you are thereunto called, that you should inherit a blessing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.10">For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.11">Let him shun evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.12">For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.13">And who is he that will harm you, if you be followers of that which is good?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.14">But and if you suffer for righteousness' sake, happy are you: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.15">But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asks you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.16">Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conduct in Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.17">For it is better, if the will of God be so, that you suffer for well doing, than for evil doing.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.18">For Christ also has once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but given life by the Spirit:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.19">By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.20">Which sometime were disobedient, when once the longsuffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, in which few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.21">The like figure whereunto even baptism does also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="1Pet.3.22">Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him.</verse>

<verse osisID="1Pet.4.2">That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.</verse>
|

<verse osisID="1Pet.4.3">For the time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and abominable idolatries:</verse>

<verse osisID="2Pet.1.1">Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.2">Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.3">According as his divine power has given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that has called us to glory and virtue:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.4">Whereby are given unto us exceedingly great and precious promises: that by these you might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.5">And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.6">And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.7">And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness love.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.8">For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that you shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.9">But he that lacks these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and has forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.10">Therefore instead, brothers, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if you do these things, you shall never fall:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.11">For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.12">Therefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though you know them, and be established in the present truth.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.13">Yes, I think it suitable, as long as I am in this tabernacle, to stir you up by putting you in remembrance;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.14">Knowing that shortly I must put off this my tabernacle, just as our Lord Jesus Christ has showed me.</verse>

|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.16">For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.17">For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.</verse>

|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.18">And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.</verse>

<verse osisID="2Pet.1.19">We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto you do well that you take heed, as unto a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.20">Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.1.21">For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.</verse>

<chapter osisID="2Pet.1.21">
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.1">But there were false prophets also among the people, just as there shall be false teachers among you, who secretly shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.2">And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.3">And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingers not, and their damnation slumbers not.</verse>

|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.4">For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.5">And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.6">And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an example unto those that after should live ungodly;</verse>

<verse osisID="2Pet.2.7">And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conduct of the wicked:</verse>

|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.9">The Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.10">But chiefly them that walk after the flesh in the lust of uncleanness, and despise government. Presumptuous are they, self willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignities.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.11">Whereas angels, which are greater in power and might, bring not railing accusation against them before the Lord.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.12">But these, as natural brute beasts, made to be taken and destroyed, speak evil of the things that they understand not; and shall utterly perish in their own corruption;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.13">And shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with their own deceivings while they feast with you;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.14">Having eyes full of adultery, and that cannot cease from sin; beguiling unstable souls: a heart they have exercised with covetous practices; cursed children:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.15">Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.16">But was rebuked for his iniquity: the dumb ass speaking with man's voice forbad the anger of the prophet.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.17">These are wells without water, clouds that are carried with a tempest; to whom the mist of darkness is reserved forever.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.18">For when they speak great swelling words of vanity, they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through much wantonness, those that were clean escaped from them who live in error.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.19">While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.20">For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in it, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.21">For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.2.22">But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire.</verse>

<chapter osisID="2Pet.2.22">
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.1">This second letter, beloved, I now write unto you; in both which I stir up your pure minds by way of remembrance:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.2">That you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the Lord and Saviour:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.3">Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.4">And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.5">For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.6">Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.7">But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.8">But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.9">The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.10">But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are in it shall be burned up.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.11">Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in all holy conduct and godliness,</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.12">Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, in which the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.13">Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, in which dwells righteousness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.14">Therefore, beloved, seeing that you look for such things, be diligent that you may be found of him in peace, without spot, and blameless.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.15">And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him has written unto you;</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.16">As also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.17">You therefore, beloved, seeing you know these things before, beware lest you also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own steadfastness.</verse>
|
|
|
|
<verse osisID="2Pet.3.18">But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever. Amen. </div></verse>

<verse osisID="Rev.17.2">With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.</verse>

<verse osisID="Rev.17.3">So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.</verse>
