And he said to him, “All these I will give you, if you will fall down and worship me.”

For I tell you, unless your righteousness exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

Truly, I say to you, you will never get out until you have paid the last penny.

Giving to the Needy

“Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

Do Not Be Anxious

“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?

For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.

You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye.

Ask, and It Will Be Given

“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?

Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.

And behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.”

and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them and the Gentiles.

and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.

When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next, for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You will be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned.”

Indeed, in their case the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled that says: “‘“You will indeed hear but never understand, and you will indeed see but never perceive.”

He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you.”

However, not to give offense to them, go to the sea and cast a hook and take the first fish that comes up, and when you open its mouth you will find a shekel. Take that and give it to them for me and for yourself.”

and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.

Jesus said to him, “If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”

He said to them, “You will drink my cup, but to sit at my right hand and at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”

saying to them, “Go into the village in front of you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me.

And Jesus answered them, “Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen.

And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.”

Therefore I send you prophets and wise men and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will flog in your synagogues and persecute from town to town,

For I tell you, you will not see me again, until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.’”

And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet.

“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake.

For you always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me.

And as they were eating, he said, “Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.”

Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away because of me this night. For it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’

Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”

And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.”

Jesus said to him, “You have said so. But I tell you, from now on you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of heaven.”

And Peter remembered the saying of Jesus, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” And he went out and wept bitterly.

Then go quickly and tell his disciples that he has risen from the dead, and behold, he is going before you to Galilee; there you will see him. See, I have told you.”

Jesus Cleanses a Leper

And a leper came to him, imploring him, and kneeling said to him, “If you will, you can make me clean.”

And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”

And they said to him, “We are able.” And Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink you will drink, and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized,

and said to them, “Go into the village in front of you, and immediately as you enter it you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Untie it and bring it.

“But be on your guard. For they will deliver you over to councils, and you will be beaten in synagogues, and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, to bear witness before them.

And you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.

For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good for them. But you will not always have me.

And as they were reclining at table and eating, Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me, one who is eating with me.”

And Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’

And Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.”

And he said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.”

And Jesus said, “I am, and you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.”

And immediately the rooster crowed a second time. And Peter remembered how Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” And he broke down and wept.

But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going before you to Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.”

And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth,

And behold, you will be silent and unable to speak until the day that these things take place, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their time.”

And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus.

And you, child, will be called the prophet of the Most High; for you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways,

And this will be a sign for you: you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”

And he said to them, “Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb, ‘“Physician, heal yourself.” What we have heard you did at Capernaum, do here in your hometown as well.’”

and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men.”

Jesus Cleanses a Leper

While he was in one of the cities, there came a man full of leprosy. And when he saw Jesus, he fell on his face and begged him, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.”

But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, for he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil.

Judging Others

“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven;

How can you say to your brother, ‘Brother, let me take out the speck that is in your eye,’ when you yourself do not see the log that is in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the speck that is in your brother's eye.

And he said to him, “You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”

And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.

Do Not Be Anxious

And he said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on.

I tell you, you will never get out until you have paid the very last penny.”

No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.

No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all likewise perish.”

“Strive to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able.

Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’

Behold, your house is forsaken. And I tell you, you will not see me until you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!’”

and he who invited you both will come and say to you, ‘Give your place to this person,’ and then you will begin with shame to take the lowest place.

But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when your host comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, move up higher.’ Then you will be honored in the presence of all who sit at table with you.

and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just.”

Will he not rather say to him, ‘Prepare supper for me, and dress properly, and serve me while I eat and drink, and afterward you will eat and drink’?

And he said to the disciples, “The days are coming when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.

When Jesus heard this, he said to him, “One thing you still lack. Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”

saying, “Go into the village in front of you, where on entering you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever yet sat. Untie it and bring it here.

But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake.

You will be delivered up even by parents and brothers and relatives and friends, and some of you they will put to death.

You will be hated by all for my name's sake.

By your endurance you will gain your lives.

And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the saying of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.”

“If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe,

and if I ask you, you will not answer.

And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.”

He said to them, “Come and you will see.” So they came and saw where he was staying, and they stayed with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

Jesus answered him, “Because I said to you, ‘I saw you under the fig tree,’ do you believe? You will see greater things than these.”

And he said to him, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”

So Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.”

I have come in my Father's name, and you do not receive me. If another comes in his own name, you will receive him.

You will seek me and you will not find me. Where I am you cannot come.”

What does he mean by saying, ‘You will seek me and you will not find me,’ and, ‘Where I am you cannot come’ ?”

So he said to them again, “I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot come.”

I told you that you would die in your sins, for unless you believe that I am he you will die in your sins.”

So Jesus said to them, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority, but speak just as the Father taught me.

and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

They answered him, “We are offspring of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How is it that you say, ‘You will become free’?”

So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

Jesus answered him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.”

One of You Will Betray Me

After saying these things, Jesus was troubled in his spirit, and testified, “Truly, truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.”

Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me, and just as I said to the Jews, so now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going you cannot come.’

Jesus Foretells Peter's Denial

Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered him, “Where I am going you cannot follow me now, but you will follow afterward.”

Jesus Promises the Holy Spirit

“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.

In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?”

If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.

These things I command you, so that you will love one another.

They will put you out of the synagogues. Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.

concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer;

Your Sorrow Will Turn into Joy

“A little while, and you will see me no longer; and again a little while, and you will see me.”

So some of his disciples said to one another, “What is this that he says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see me, and again a little while, and you will see me’; and, ‘because I am going to the Father’ ?”

Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him, so he said to them, “Is this what you are asking yourselves, what I meant by saying, ‘A little while and you will not see me, and again a little while and you will see me’?

Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice. You will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy.

In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.

Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

In that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf;

Behold, the hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”

So Pilate said to him, “You will not speak to me? Do you not know that I have authority to release you and authority to crucify you?”

He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish.

Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.”

for John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

For you will not abandon my soul to Hades, or let your Holy One see corruption.

You have made known to me the paths of life; you will make me full of gladness with your presence.’

And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You might even be found opposing God!” So they took his advice,

But rise and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.”

he will declare to you a message by which you will be saved, you and all your household.’

And I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John baptized with water, but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’

And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon you, and you will be blind and unable to see the sun for a time.” Immediately mist and darkness fell upon him, and he went about seeking people to lead him by the hand.

Therefore he says also in another psalm, “‘You will not let your Holy One see corruption.’

“‘Look, you scoffers, be astounded and perish; for I am doing a work in your days, a work that you will not believe, even if one tells it to you.’”

that you abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.”

And they said, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”

And I said, ‘What shall I do, Lord?’ And the Lord said to me, ‘Rise, and go into Damascus, and there you will be told all that is appointed for you to do.’

for you will be a witness for him to everyone of what you have seen and heard.

By examining him yourself you will be able to find out from him about everything of which we accuse him.”

Then Agrippa said to Festus, “I would like to hear the man myself.” “Tomorrow,” said he, “you will hear him.”

“‘Go to this people, and say, “You will indeed hear but never understand, and you will indeed see but never perceive.”

Do you suppose, O man—you who judge those who practice such things and yet do them yourself—that you will escape the judgment of God?

For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

You will say to me then, “Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?”

because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

Then you will say, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.”

To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.”

For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval,

For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?

So with yourselves, if with your tongue you utter speech that is not intelligible, how will anyone know what is said? For you will be speaking into the air.

Our hope for you is unshaken, for we know that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in our comfort.

For we are not writing to you anything other than what you read and understand and I hope you will fully understand—

just as you did partially understand us—that on the day of our Lord Jesus you will boast of us as we will boast of you.

You will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God.

I hope you will find out that we have not failed the test.

I have confidence in the Lord that you will take no other view, and the one who is troubling you will bear the penalty, whoever he is.

Keep in Step with the Spirit

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.

A Good Servant of Christ Jesus

If you put these things before the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, being trained in the words of the faith and of the good doctrine that you have followed.

Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching. Persist in this, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers.

Confident of your obedience, I write to you, knowing that you will do even more than I say.

like a robe you will roll them up, like a garment they will be changed. But you are the same, and your years will have no end.”

But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled,

And when the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory.

Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent to confirm your calling and election, for if you practice these qualities you will never fall.

And we have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts,

who testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey in a manner worthy of God.

Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and for ten days you will have tribulation. Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.

Remember, then, what you received and heard. Keep it, and repent. If you will not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come against you.

They cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
