1Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.Log in to add notes

2For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.Log in to add notes

3For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:Log in to add notes

4That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;Log in to add notes

5Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:Log in to add notes

6That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.Log in to add notes

7For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.Log in to add notes

8He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.Log in to add notes

9But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.Log in to add notes

10And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;Log in to add notes

11And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;Log in to add notes

12That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.Log in to add notes

7Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.Log in to add notes

8Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.Log in to add notes

9Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein.Log in to add notes

10We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle.Log in to add notes

11For the bodies of those beasts, whose blood is brought into the sanctuary by the high priest for sin, are burned without the camp.Log in to add notes

12Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate.Log in to add notes

13Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.Log in to add notes

14For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.Log in to add notes

15By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.Log in to add notes

16But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.Log in to add notes

42But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.Log in to add notes

43Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye love the uppermost seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.Log in to add notes

44Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are as graves which appear not, and the men that walk over them are not aware of them.Log in to add notes

45Then answered one of the lawyers, and said unto him, Master, thus saying thou reproachest us also.Log in to add notes

46And he said, Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! for ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.Log in to add notes

32Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.Log in to add notes

33Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.Log in to add notes

34For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.Log in to add notes

35Let your loins be girded about, and your lights burning;Log in to add notes

36And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their lord, when he will return from the wedding; that when he cometh and knocketh, they may open unto him immediately.Log in to add notes

37Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them.Log in to add notes

38And if he shall come in the second watch, or come in the third watch, and find them so, blessed are those servants.Log in to add notes

39And this know, that if the goodman of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and not have suffered his house to be broken through.Log in to add notes

40Be ye therefore ready also: for the Son of man cometh at an hour when ye think not.Log in to add notes

9I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.Log in to add notes

10The thief cometh 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.Log in to add notes

11I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.Log in to add notes

12But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.Log in to add notes

13The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.Log in to add notes

14I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.Log in to add notes

15As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.Log in to add notes

16And 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.Log in to add notes
