⁵⁷ And crying with a loud voice they stopped their ears and rushed upon him with one accord, ⁵⁸ and casting him out of the city, stoned him. And the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man called Saul, ⁵⁹ and they stoned Stephen, calling and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. ⁶⁰ And kneeling down he cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And having said this he fell asleep.

³ But Saul persecuted the church, and going from house to house, seizing men and women, committed them to prison.

⁴ and falling on the earth he heard a voice saying to him, Saul, Saul, Why do you persecute me?

^{1 (10:1)} AND at that time Herod the king put forth his hands to injure some of the church. ² And he killed James the brother of John with the sword. ³ And seeing that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to apprehend Peter also,—and it was during the days of unleavened bread,— ⁴ and having seized he put him in prison, committing him to four companies of four soldiers each to guard him, wishing after the passover to bring him before the people.

²² And the multitude came together against them, and the prefects tearing off their clothes gave orders to beat them with rods, ²³ and having inflicted many blows on them cast them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely; ²⁴ who, having received such a charge, cast them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. ^{25 (14:4)} But at midnight Paul and Silas prayed and sung praises to God, and the prisoners heard them. ²⁶ And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and all the doors were immediately opened, and the bands of all were removed.

³⁰ And all the city was moved, and there was a concourse of the people, and taking hold of Paul they dragged him without the temple, and immediately the gates were shut. ^{31 (20:2)} And while they were seeking to kill him, a report went up to the chiliarch of the cohort that all Jerusalem was in commotion;

^{30 (21:1)} AND on the next day, wishing to know the truth in respect to what he was accused of by the Jews, [the chiliarch] released him, and commanded the chief priests and all the Sanhedrim to come together; and bringing Paul down he set him before them.

^{1 (22:1)} AND after five days the chief priest Ananias, with the elders, and a certain orator, Tertullus, went down and gave information to the procurator against Paul. ² And he being called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, Having obtained great peace by you, and things being happily arranged for this nation by your oversight in all things and in all places ³ we accept [it] most excellent Felix, with all thankfulness. ⁴ But that I may not further weary you, I beg you to hear us briefly, with your clemency. ⁵ For finding this man a pestilence and a mover of sedition among all the Jews throughout the world, and a chief of the sect of the Nazoraeans, ⁶ who also endeavored to profane the temple, whom we also took, ⁷ (Added verse not retained in Sawyer) ⁸ from whom you will be able to learn by examination of all these things of which we accuse him. ⁹ And the Jews also assented, saying, These things are so.

^{1 (23:1)} FESTUS therefore coming into the province, after three days went up from Caesarea to Jerusalem. ² And the chief priests and the first men of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,

¹¹ If indeed I have done wrong or committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die; but if those things of which they accuse me are nothing, no man may give me up to them; I appeal to Caesar. ¹² Then Festus having conferred with the council answered, You have appealed to Caesar; to Caesar you shall go.

²² And Agrippa [said] to Festus, I should like to hear the man also myself. And he said, To-morrow you shall hear him. ^{23 (23:6)} On the next day, therefore, Agrippa and Bernice coming with great pomp, and entering into the place of hearing with chiliarchs and men of distinction in the city, at the command of Festus Paul was brought. ²⁴ And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all the men present with us, you see this man, of whom all the multitude of the Jews besought me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying out that he ought no longer to live. ²⁵ But finding that he had done nothing deserving death, and he having appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.

² I think myself happy, King Agrippa, in being allowed to make my defense before you to-day in respect to all things of which I am accused by the Jews, ³ especially as you are acquainted with all the customs and questions of the Jews; wherefore, I beg you to hear me patiently. ⁴ My mode of life from my childhood, the early part of it being with my nation at Jerusalem, know all the Jews, ⁵ who knew me from the first, if they would testify, that according to the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee. ⁶ And now I stand on trial for the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers, ⁷ which our twelve tribes, serving God continually, day and night, hope to attain; of this hope, King Agrippa, I am accused by the Jews. ⁸ Why is it judged by you incredible that God raises the dead? ⁹ I indeed thought with myself that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus the Nazoraean, ¹⁰ which I also did at Jerusalem, and many of the saints I shut up in prison, having received authority from the chief priests, and when they were killed I gave my vote against them. ¹¹ And punishing them often in all the synagogues, I compelled them to blaspheme, and being exceedingly mad against them, I pursued them even to cities abroad.

¹⁵ who also killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets, and persecuted us, and who please not God and are hostile to all men, ¹⁶ forbidding us to speak to the gentiles that they may be saved, that they may fill up their sins always; and the wrath has come on them to the utmost.

^{13 (2:2)} Be subject therefore to every human government, for the Lord's sake, whether to the king, as superior,

^{12 (3:1)} BELOVED, think not strange of the fiery trial which is to try you, as if some strange thing happened to you, ¹³ but as you partake of the sufferings of Christ rejoice, that you may also rejoice exulting at the revelation of his glory. ¹⁴ If you are reproached for the name of Christ, happy are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.

¹⁰ Fear not what you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to cast some of you into prison, that you may be tried, and you shall have affliction ten days. Be faithful till death, and I will give you the crown of life.

^{12 (1:3)} But I wish you to know, brothers, that the things as to me have resulted in the advancement of the gospel,

²⁸ terrified in nothing by the adversaries, which is to them a token of destruction, but to you of salvation, and this from God;

³ that no one should be moved by these afflictions. For you know that we are appointed for this; ⁴ for indeed when we came to you, we told you before that we were about to suffer affliction, as it also happened, and you know.

⁵ a token of the righteous judgment of God that you should be deemed worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer,

¹⁹ But when they have delivered you up be not anxious how you shall speak, or what you shall say, for it shall be given you in that hour what to say; ²⁰ for it is not you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father that speaks in you.

¹¹ And when they deliver you to afflictions, be not anxious beforehand what you shall say; but whatever is given you in that hour, this speak; for it is not you that speak, but the Holy Spirit.

¹¹ And when they bring you to the synagogues, and powers, and authorities, be not anxious how you shall defend yourselves, or what you shall say; ¹² for the Holy Spirit shall teach you in that hour what you ought to say.

¹² for the Holy Spirit shall teach you in that hour what you ought to say.

⁴⁵ Then he opened their understanding to understand the Scriptures,

⁴ and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.

⁸ Then Peter, full of the Holy Spirit, said to them, Rulers of the people and elders of Israel, ⁹ if we are to-day examined concerning the good work done to the sick man, by what means he has been cured, ¹⁰ be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazoraean, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by him has this man stood before you sound. ¹¹ This is the stone rejected by you builders, which has become the head of a corner. ¹² And there is salvation in no other; for there is no other name given under heaven among men, by which we can be saved. ^{13 (3:5)} And seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and supposing that they were illiterate and common men, they wondered, and perceived that they had been with Jesus;

³¹ And when they had prayed the place was shaken in which they were assembled, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and spoke the word of God with boldness. ^{32 (4:1)} AND the multitude that believed had one heart and one soul, and none said that anything of his possessions was his; but they had all things common. ³³ And the apostles delivered the testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus with great power, and great favor was towards them all.

¹⁰ and were not able to resist the wisdom and spirit with which he spoke.

²⁵ And as he discoursed of righteousness, and temperance, and the judgment about to come, Felix being terrified answered, Go for the present; but when I have time I will call you.

²⁸ And Agrippa said to Paul, You almost persuade me to be a Christian.

¹⁹ and for me, that a word may be given me at the opening of my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel,

³ praying also at the same time for us, that God will open to us a door of utterance to declare the mystery of Christ, for which also I am bound, ⁴ that I may declare it plainly, as I ought to speak.

¹⁶ At my first defense no one stood by me, but all forsook me; may it not be set to their account; ¹⁷ but the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that the word should be fully declared by me, and all the nations should hear, and I was delivered from the mouth of the lion.

⁵ And if any one of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and upbraids not, and it shall be given him.

²¹ And a brother shall deliver a brother to death, and a father a son; and children shall rise up against their parents and put them to death;

¹² And brother shall deliver brother to death, and father, son; and children shall rise up against their parents and kill them;

⁵³ a father against a son, and a son against a father; a mother against the daughter, and a daughter against the mother; a mother-in-law against the daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against the mother-in-law.

⁵⁹ and they stoned Stephen, calling and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

² And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

¹³ I know your works and where you live; where Satan's throne is; and you hold my name, and did not deny my faith in the days in which Antipas my faithful martyr was killed among you, where Satan dwells.

^{9 (4:5)} And when he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those killed for the word of God and for the testimony which they had.

¹¹ And they conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and exposed their lives to death.

¹¹ Blessed are you when they shall reproach you, and persecute you, and say every evil against you, falsely, for my sake.

²² and you shall be hated by all men for my sake. But he that endures to the end shall be saved.

^{9 (22:2)} Then they shall deliver you to affliction, and kill you, and you shall be hated by all nations on my account;

¹³ and you shall be hated by all on my account; but he that endures to the end shall be saved.

²² Blessed are you when men shall hate you, and when they shall exclude you from their company, and reproach and cast out your names as evil, on account of the Son of man.

⁷ The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I testify of it that its works are evil.

¹⁹ If you were of this world, the world would be a friend to its own; but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

²¹ But all these things they will do to you, on my account, because they know not him that sent me.

^{14 (18:3)} I have given them thy word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, as I am not of the world.

¹⁶ for I will show him how great things he must suffer for my name.

⁵ For we preach not ourselves but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.

¹¹ For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus may be made manifest in our mortal flesh.

¹⁰ Most gladly, therefore, will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Wherefore I am well pleased with infirmities, with injuries, with necessities, with persecutions, with distresses for Christ; for when I am weak, then am I strong.

²⁹ because it was given to you in behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him but also to suffer for him,

¹⁴ If you are reproached for the name of Christ, happy are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you.

³ and you have patience, and suffered for my name, and did not faint.

³⁰ Even the hairs of your head are all numbered.

⁷ But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore, for you are of more value than many sparrows.

³⁴ Wherefore I exhort you to partake of food; for this is necessary to your safety, for there shall not a hair perish from the head of any one of you.

¹³ but he that endures to the end shall be saved.

¹⁵ But that on the good ground signifies those who, with a noble and good heart, hearing the word retain it, and bear fruit persistently.

⁷ to those who by patience in good works seek for glory and honor and immortality, eternal life;

³ And not only [this], but we rejoice also in afflictions, knowing that affliction works out patience,

²⁵ but if we hope for what we see not, we wait for it with patience.

⁴ For those things which were written before were written for our instruction, that through patience and the consolation of the Scriptures we may have hope.

³ remembering without ceasing your work of faith and labor of love and patience of the hope of our Lord Jesus Christ before God even our Father,

⁵ And may the Lord direct your hearts in the love of God, and in the patience of Christ.

¹¹ But we desire each of you to show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope to the end,

¹⁵ and so having waited long he obtained the promise.

³⁶ For you have need of patience, that having done the will of God you may receive the promise.

³ knowing that the trial of your faith produces patience.

^{7 (2:7)} Wait patiently therefore, brothers, till the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waits for the precious fruit of the earth, and is of long patience, till he receives the autumnal and vernal rain. ⁸ Do you also have long patience, confirm your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand. ⁹ Complain not, brothers, against one another, that you be not judged; behold, the judge stands before the doors. ¹⁰ You have the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord, my brothers, as an example of patience and long-suffering. ¹¹ Behold, we account them blessed who are patient. You have heard of the patience of Job, and you know the purpose of the Lord, that he is very merciful and compassionate.

^{9 (1:4)} I, John, your brother and companion in the affliction and kingdom and patience in Christ Jesus, was in the island called Patmos on account of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.

² I know your works and your labor and your patience, and that you cannot bear the wicked, and you tried those who say they are apostles and are not, and found them false; ³ and you have patience, and suffered for my name, and did not faint.

¹⁰ Because you have kept the word of my patience, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which is to come on all the world, to try those who dwell on the earth.

¹⁰ If any one [leads] into captivity, he shall go into captivity; if any one kills with the sword, he shall be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and faith of the saints.

¹² Here is the patience of the saints, who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

^{15 (22:3)} When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in a holy place—let him that reads understand,—

⁴³ For days of [trouble] will come upon you, and your enemies shall throw an embankment around you, and shut you in, and press you on every side,

⁷ And they asked him, saying, Teacher, when then shall these things be? and what sign [shall there be], when these things are about to occur?

¹⁶ then let those in Judea flee to the mountains.

¹⁵ and let not him that is on the house go down into the house, nor enter to take any thing out of his house;

^{31 (22:5)} In that day let not him that shall be on the house, and his furniture in the house, come down to take it away; and in like manner let not him in the field turn back for things which are behind; ³² remember Lot's wife. ³³ Whoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it; and whoever shall lose shall save it.

^{4 (10:6)} And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you may not partake of her sins, and receive of her plagues;

^{22 (1:5)} But all this was done, that the word of the Lord might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying;

¹⁹ for those days shall be an affliction, such as has not been from the beginning of the creation that God created till now, and shall not be. ²⁰ And unless the Lord had shortened those days no flesh would be saved; but for the elects' sake, whom he has chosen, he has shortened the days.

⁵ But according to your hardness and unchanged heart you treasure up wrath for yourself in the day of wrath and of a revelation of the righteous judgment of God,

⁹ the Lord knows how to deliver the pious from trial, and to keep the wicked to the day of judgment to be punished,

⁷ But the present heavens and the earth have been preserved by his word, being kept for fire, at the day of the judgment and destruction of wicked men.

⁴¹ They said to him, He will inflict on those men a miserable death, and let out his vineyard to other husbandmen, who will render him the fruits in their seasons.

⁴⁴ (Added verse not retained in Sawyer)

¹⁹ and woe to those with child and giving nurse in those days!

¹⁷ And woe to those with child, and those giving nurse in those days!

²⁷ but those my enemies that wished me not to reign over them, bring hither and kill them before me.

²⁹ For behold, days come in which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and those who have not borne children, and the breasts which have not nursed them!

¹⁶ forbidding us to speak to the gentiles that they may be saved, that they may fill up their sins always; and the wrath has come on them to the utmost.

¹² not with blood of goats and bullocks, but with his own blood, entered once into the sanctuary having found eternal redemption. ¹³ For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkling the defiled, sanctifies to the purification of the flesh, ¹⁴ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who with an eternal spirit offered himself without fault to God, purify your conscience from dead works to serve the living God. ^{15 (3:6)} And for this cause he is the mediator of the new covenant, that death having been for a redemption of transgressions [transgressors] under the first covenant, the called might receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. ¹⁶ For where there is a covenant, there must follow the death of the covenant-maker. ¹⁷ For a covenant is strong for the dead, since it is never strong [unalterable] when the covenant-maker lives;

^{26 (4:2)} For if we sin willingly after having received the knowledge of the truth, there is no longer a sacrifice left for sins, ²⁷ but a fearful expectation of judgment and fiery indignation, which is about to consume the adversaries. ²⁸ Any one who despised the law of Moses died without mercy by two or three witnesses; ²⁹ of how much greater punishment do you suppose he will be thought worthy, who has trodden down the Son of God, and accounted defiled the blood of the covenant with which he was purified, and treated injuriously the Spirit of grace. ³⁰ For we know him that said, Judgment belongs to me, I will repay. And again, The Lord will judge his people. ³¹ It is fearful to fall into the hands of the living God.

¹⁶ And forget not beneficence and liberality; for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

^{1 (2:6)} Come now, rich men, weep and lament for the miseries which are coming upon you.

¹⁷ For it is time for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it first begins with us, what will the end be of those that obey not the gospel of God?

^{25 (8:4)} For I wish you not to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery; that you may not be wise in your own conceit. For hardness in part has come upon Israel, till the fullness of the gentiles shall come in,

² And leave out the exterior court of the temple and measure it not, for it has been given to the gentiles, and they shall tread the holy city under foot forty-two months [three years and a half].

^{29 (22:5)} And immediately after the affliction of those days the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

⁴⁵ And from the sixth hour there was darkness on all the land till the ninth hour;

^{24 (12:5)} But in those days, after that affliction, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,

²⁶ And then shall they see the Son of man coming in clouds, with great power and glory.

^{33 (16:4)} And when it was the sixth hour, there was darkness over all the earth till the ninth hour.

¹⁹ And I will show prodigies in heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and a cloud of smoke.

^{10 (2:3)} But the day of the Lord will come as a thief, in which the heavens shall pass away with a crash, and the elements be melted with heat, and the earth and the works in it be consumed. ¹¹ All these things therefore being dissolved, what persons ought we to be in holy conduct and piety, ¹² expecting and hastening the coming of the day of God, in which the heavens being burnt up will be dissolved and the elements be melted with heat.

^{12 (4:6)} And I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and all the moon became as blood, ¹³ and the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree casts down its unseasonable figs when shaken with a mighty wind, ¹⁴ and heaven departed like a book rolled up, and every mountain and island were moved from their places.

^{11 (12:1)} AND I saw a great white throne and him that sat on it, from whose presence the earth and heaven fled away, and no place was found for them.

²⁵ and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers in the heavens shall be shaken.

^{26 (4:2)} For if we sin willingly after having received the knowledge of the truth, there is no longer a sacrifice left for sins, ²⁷ but a fearful expectation of judgment and fiery indignation, which is about to consume the adversaries.

²⁷ For the Son of man is about to come in the glory of his Father, with his angels, and then shall he render to every one according to his doing. ²⁸ I tell you truly, that some of those standing here shall not taste death till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

³⁰ And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven; and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn; and they shall see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.

^{31 (22:13)} But when the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then shall he sit on the throne of his glory,

⁶⁴ Jesus said to him, As you say; but I tell you that hereafter you shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of the power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.

⁹ And having said these words, as they were looking on he was taken up, and a cloud received him from their sight. ¹⁰ And as they looked steadily to heaven while he went, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing; ¹¹ and they said, Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking at heaven? This Jesus taken up from you to heaven shall so come in the manner in which you have seen him go to heaven.

^{7 (1:3)} Behold, he comes with the clouds, and every eye shall see him and those who pierced him, and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn because of him. Yes, amen.

^{14 (8:5)} And I saw, and behold, a white cloud, and on the cloud one sitting like the Son of man, having on his head a crown of gold and in his hand a sharp sickle.

⁷ And will not God execute the judgment of his elect, who cry day and night to him, even though he waits long on them?

¹⁹ For the earnest expectation of the creation waits for the revelation of the sons of God.

²³ and not only it, but we ourselves also who have the first fruit of the Spirit, even ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our bodies.

¹⁴ which is a pledge of our inheritance for the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of his glory.

³⁰ And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, by which you were sealed to the day of redemption.

^{32 (22:6)} But learn the parable of the fig tree. When its branch is now green, and puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is nigh. ³³ So also when you see all these things, know that [the Son of man] is nigh, at the doors. ³⁴ I tell you truly, that this generation shall not pass away till all these things shall be accomplished. ³⁵ Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

^{28 (12:6)} But learn the parable of the fig tree. When its branch is now tender and it puts forth leaves, it is known that the summer is nigh; ²⁹ so also when you see all these things occur, know that [the Son of man] is nigh, at the doors. ³⁰ I tell you truly, that this generation shall not pass away till all these things are accomplished.

⁵⁷ And why even of yourselves do you not judge what is right?

^{1 (14:1)} AND the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to Jesus to try him desired him to show them a sign from heaven. ² But he answered and said to them, When it is evening you say, It will be fair weather for the sky is red; ³ and in the morning, It will rain to-day for the sky is red and lowering. You know how to distinguish the face of the sky, but you cannot distinguish the signs of the times. ⁴ An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign; and no sign shall be given it except the sign of Jonah. And he left them and departed.

⁵¹ Do you think that I have come to give peace on the earth? I tell you, no; but rather division. ⁵² For from this time there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two shall be divided against three; ⁵³ a father against a son, and a son against a father; a mother against the daughter, and a daughter against the mother; a mother-in-law against the daughter-in-law, and a daughter-in-law against the mother-in-law. ^{54 (17:8)} And he also said to the multitudes, When you see a cloud rise in the west you immediately say, There comes a shower; and it is so. ⁵⁵ And when the south wind blows you say, There will be heat; and there is. ⁵⁶ Hypocrites! You know how to distinguish the appearance of the earth and sky, and how do you not distinguish this time? ⁵⁷ And why even of yourselves do you not judge what is right?

³⁷ For yet a very little while, and he that is to come will come and will not delay;

⁹ Complain not, brothers, against one another, that you be not judged; behold, the judge stands before the doors.

^{7 (2:8)} But the end of all things is at hand. Be sober therefore, and watch in prayers;

²⁸ I tell you truly, that some of those standing here shall not taste death till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

³⁶ I tell you truly, that all these [crimes] shall come on this generation.

³⁴ I tell you truly, that this generation shall not pass away till all these things shall be accomplished.

³⁰ I tell you truly, that this generation shall not pass away till all these things are accomplished.

¹⁸ For I tell you truly, that till heaven and earth pass away, one iota or one point shall by no means pass away from the law till all things are accomplished.

³⁵ Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

³¹ Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

²⁵ but the word of the Lord continues forever. And this is the word preached to you.

⁷ But the present heavens and the earth have been preserved by his word, being kept for fire, at the day of the judgment and destruction of wicked men. ^{8 (2:2)} But let not this one thing escape you, beloved, that one day with the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. ⁹ The Lord is not slow in respect to his promise, as some men account slowness, but is long-suffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to a change of mind. ^{10 (2:3)} But the day of the Lord will come as a thief, in which the heavens shall pass away with a crash, and the elements be melted with heat, and the earth and the works in it be consumed. ¹¹ All these things therefore being dissolved, what persons ought we to be in holy conduct and piety, ¹² expecting and hastening the coming of the day of God, in which the heavens being burnt up will be dissolved and the elements be melted with heat. ¹³ But we, according to his promise, look for a new heaven and a new earth, in which dwells righteousness. ^{14 (2:4)} Wherefore, beloved, looking for these things, be diligent that you may be found in him without a spot and blemish, in peace,

²² And he that received seed among thorns is he that hears the word, and the cares of this life and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

³⁹ and knew not till the flood came and took them all away, so shall the coming of the Son of man be. ⁴⁰ Then two shall be in the field; one is taken and the other left. ⁴¹ Two women shall be grinding at the mill; one is taken and the other left. ^{42 (22:8)} Watch, therefore, for you know not on what day your Lord comes, ⁴³ But know this, that if the householder had known in what watch the thief comes, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken into. ⁴⁴ Therefore be you also ready, for in such an hour as you think not the Son of man comes. ⁴⁵ Who then is the faithful and wise servant whom the Lord has placed over his family to give them food in due season? ⁴⁶ Blessed is that servant whom his Lord, when he comes, shall find so doing. ⁴⁷ I tell you truly, that he will place him over all his estates. ^{48 (22:9)} But if that evil servant says in his heart, My Lord delays his coming, ⁴⁹ and begins to beat his fellow-servants, and eats and drinks with drunkards, ⁵⁰ the Lord of that servant will come on a day when he looks not for him, and at an hour that he knows not of,

¹⁹ and the cares of life, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the desires of other things coming in, choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

^{9 (12:2)} But take heed to yourselves; they shall deliver you up to Sanhedrims, and you shall be beaten in synagogues, and shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them.

¹⁴ and that which fell among thorns signifies those who hear, and going away are choked by cares and riches and the pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

⁴¹ And the Lord answered and said to her, Martha, Martha, you are anxious and disturbed about many things,

⁴⁰ Be you also ready; for in an hour when you think not the Son of man comes.

⁴⁵ But if that servant says in his heart, My lord delays to come, and begins to beat the younger servants, and female servants, and to eat and drink and be drunk, ⁴⁶ the lord of that servant will come in a day that he looks not for him, and at an hour that he knows not of, and will punish him severely, and give him his part with the faithless.

³ Take heed to yourselves; if your brother sins, reprove him; and if he changes his mind, forgive him;

¹¹ And [do] this, knowing the time, that it is already the hour that we should be waked from sleep, for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. ¹² The night is far advanced, and the day is at hand; let us lay aside therefore the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. ¹³ Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in revelries and drinking, not in lewdness and excesses, not in strife and envy;

¹¹ But now I have written to you not to associate, if any one called a brother is a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or rapacious, even to eat with such a one.

¹⁰ nor thieves, nor covetous persons, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor the rapacious, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

²⁰ idolatry, magic, enmities, strife, envy, anger, contentions, dissensions, heresies,

⁶ Be anxious for nothing, but with all prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

² for you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord comes like a thief in the night. ³ When they say, Peace and safety, then sudden destruction comes, like pain upon a woman with child, and they shall not escape. ⁴ But you, brothers, are not in darkness, that the day should come upon you like a thief; ⁵ for you are all children of light, and children of day; we are not of night nor of darkness. ^{6 (2:5)} Therefore let us not sleep as others, but let us watch and be sober. ⁷ For they that sleep sleep in the night, and they that are drunk drink in the night; ⁸ but let us who are of day be sober, putting on a cuirass of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation,

¹⁵ taking care that no one may come short of the grace of God, that no root of bitterness springing up may make trouble and by it many be defiled,

³ For the time past is sufficient for us to have performed the will of the gentiles, walking in lewdness, inordinate desires, drunkenness, revellings, drinkings and unlawful idolatries, ⁴ in which they think it strange that you run not with them to the same excessive intemperance, blaspheming, ⁵ who shall give an account to him that is ready to judge the living and dead. ⁶ And for this cause was the gospel preached also to the dead, that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, but live according to God in the Spirit. ^{7 (2:8)} But the end of all things is at hand. Be sober therefore, and watch in prayers;

^{10 (2:3)} But the day of the Lord will come as a thief, in which the heavens shall pass away with a crash, and the elements be melted with heat, and the earth and the works in it be consumed.

^{14 (2:4)} Wherefore, beloved, looking for these things, be diligent that you may be found in him without a spot and blemish, in peace,

³ Remember therefore how you have received and heard, and watch, and change your minds. If therefore you do not watch, I will come as a thief, and you shall not know at what hour I will come upon you.

³⁷ And they answered and said to him, Where, Lord? And he said to them, Where the body is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

²⁶ and he made of one blood every nation of men to live on all the face of the earth, determining their appointed times and the bounds of their habitation,

¹⁵ Behold, I come as a thief; blessed is he that watches and keeps on his clothes, lest he walk naked and they see his shame.

^{42 (22:8)} Watch, therefore, for you know not on what day your Lord comes,

¹³ Watch, therefore, for you know not the day nor the hour.

⁴¹ Watch and pray that you enter not into trial; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

³³ Observe, watch, for you know not when the time is.

³⁷ And what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.

³⁷ Blessed are those servants whom their lord when he comes shall find watching. I tell you truly, that he will gird himself, and cause them to recline, and he will come and wait upon them. ³⁸ And if he comes in the second watch, and comes in the third watch, and finds them thus, blessed are they. ³⁹ But know this, that if the householder had known at what hour the thief comes, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through. ⁴⁰ Be you also ready; for in an hour when you think not the Son of man comes.

^{1 (23:1)} AND he spoke also a parable to them, that men ought to pray at all times, and not to faint;

³⁵ but those who are judged worthy to attain that life, and the resurrection of the dead, neither marry nor are married;

² a pious man, and one fearing God with all his house, and bestowing many charities on the people, and praying to God always,

^{13 (8:4)} Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, be manly, be strong,

¹³ Take therefore the whole armor of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having done all to stand. ¹⁴ Stand, therefore, girded about your loins with truth, and having put on the cuirass of righteousness,

¹⁸ praying with all prayer and supplication on every occasion with the spirit, and watching in the same with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints, ¹⁹ and for me, that a word may be given me at the opening of my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel,

^{2 (2:5)} Be constant in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving,

¹⁷ pray without ceasing,

⁵ a token of the righteous judgment of God that you should be deemed worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer, ⁶ since it is just with God to repay affliction to those who afflict you,

⁵ But do you be sober in all things, endure evil, do the work of an evangelist, perform fully your ministry.

^{8 (3:4)} Be sober, be watchful. Your adversary the devil goes about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour;

^{28 (1:8)} And now, little children, continue in him, that when he shall appear we may have boldness, and not be put to shame by him at his coming.

^{24 (1:7)} And to him that is able to keep you without falling, and to present you blameless before his glory, with great joy,

^{1 (18:2)} And when they approached Jerusalem, and came to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,

¹⁷ And he left them, and went out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.

³⁰ And having sung a hymn they went out to the Mount of Olives.

^{55 (24:4)} At that time Jesus said to the multitudes, Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take me? I sat daily teaching in the temple, and you did not take me;

^{12 (11:3)} And on the next day as they returned from Bethany he was hungry;

¹⁹ And when it was evening he went out of the city.

³⁷ And when he was now approaching, at the descent of the Mount of Olives, all the multitude of the disciples began to rejoice, and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works which they saw,

^{39 (29:1)} AND going out, he went, according to his custom to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples followed him.

^{1 (15:1)} THEN Jesus, six days before the passover, came to Bethany, where Lazarus was whom Jesus had raised from the dead.

^{12 (1:3)} Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called [the Mount] of Olives, which is near Jerusalem, a sabbath day's journey [distant].

¹ and Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. ² And in the morning he went again to the temple, and all the people came to him, and he sat and taught them.
