²⁵ And he went from there to Mount Carmel, and returned from there to Samaria.

¹¹ And Jehoshaphat said, Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may inquire of the Lord by him? And one of the servants of the king of Israel answered and said, There is here Elisha son of Shaphat, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.

¹⁵ And now fetch me a harpist. And it came to pass, as the harpist played, that the hand of the Lord came upon him. ¹⁶ And he said, Thus says the Lord: Make this valley full of trenches.

¹⁶ And he said, Thus says the Lord: Make this valley full of trenches. ¹⁷ For thus says the Lord: You shall not see wind, neither shall you see rain, yet this valley shall be filled with water, and you and your flocks and your cattle shall drink. ¹⁸ And this is a light thing in the eyes of the Lord: I will also deliver Moab into your hand.

⁴ And you shall go in and shut the door upon you and upon your sons, and you shall pour forth into these vessels, and remove that which is filled.

⁷ And she came and told the man of God. And Elisha said, Go, sell the oil, and you shall pay your debts, and you and your sons shall live from the remaining oil.

⁹ And the woman said to her husband, See now, I know that this is a holy man of God who comes over continually to us. ¹⁰ Let us now make for him an upper chamber, a small place; and let us put a bed there for him, and a table, and a stool, and a lamp; and it shall come to pass that when he comes in to us, he shall turn in there. ¹¹ And it happened one day that he went in there, and turned aside into the upper chamber, and lay there. ¹² And he said to Gehazi his servant, Call me this Shunammite. So he called her, and she stood before him.

¹⁶ And Elisha said to her, At this time next year, as the season is, you shall be alive, and embrace a son. And she said, No, my lord, do not lie to your servant.

¹⁸ And the child grew. And it came to pass when he went out to his father to the reapers,

²³ And he said, Why are you going to him today? It is neither new moon, nor the Sabbath. And she said, It is well. ²⁴ And she saddled the donkey, and said to her servant, Be quick, proceed: spare not on my account to ride, unless I shall tell you. Go, and you shall proceed, and come to the man of God, to Mount Carmel. ²⁵ And she rode and came to the man of God to the mountain. And it came to pass when Elisha saw her coming, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, that Shunammite comes. ²⁶ Now run to meet her, and you shall say, Is it well with you? Is it well with your husband? Is it well with the child? And she said, It is well. ²⁷ And she came to Elisha to the mountain, and laid hold of his feet; and Gehazi drew near to thrust her away. And Elisha said, Let her alone, for her soul is much grieved in her, and the Lord has hidden it from me, and has not told it to me. ²⁸ And she said, Did I ask a son of my lord? For did I not say, Do not deal deceitfully with me? ²⁹ And Elisha said to Gehazi, Gird up your loins, and take my staff in your hand, and go: if you meet any man, you shall not greet him, and if a man greet you, you shall not answer him; and you shall lay my staff on the child's face. ³⁰ And the mother of the child said, As the Lord lives and as your soul lives, I will not leave you. And Elisha arose, and went after her. ³¹ And Gehazi went on before her, and laid his staff on the child's face; but there was neither voice nor any hearing. So he returned to meet him, and told him, saying, The child has not awakened. ³² And Elisha went into the house, and behold, the dead child was laid upon his bed.

³² And Elisha went into the house, and behold, the dead child was laid upon his bed. ³³ And Elisha went into the house, and shut the door upon themselves, the two, and prayed to the Lord.

³⁸ And Elisha returned to Gilgal. And a famine was in the land; and the sons of the prophets sat before him. And Elisha said to his servant, Set on the great pot, and boil stew for the sons of the prophets.

⁴³ And his servant said, Why should I set this before a hundred men? And he said, Give to the people, and let them eat; for thus says the Lord: They shall eat and have some left over. ⁴⁴ So they ate, and had some left over, according to the word of the Lord.

¹⁰ And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, Go and wash seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh shall return to you, and you shall be cleansed.

¹⁰ And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, Go and wash seven times in the Jordan, and your flesh shall return to you, and you shall be cleansed. ¹¹ But Naaman became furious, and went away and said, Behold, I said to myself, He will by all means come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of his God, and lay his hand upon the place, and heal the leprosy.

¹¹ But Naaman became furious, and went away and said, Behold, I said to myself, He will by all means come out to me, and stand, and call on the name of his God, and lay his hand upon the place, and heal the leprosy.

²⁰ And Gehazi the servant of Elisha said, Behold, my Lord has spared this Syrian Naaman, so as not to take of his hand what he has brought; as the Lord lives, I will surely run after him, and take something from him. ²¹ So Gehazi followed after Naaman. And Naaman saw him running after him, and turned back from his chariot to meet him. ²² And Gehazi said, All is well: my master has sent me, saying, Behold, now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from Mount Ephraim; please give them a talent of silver, and two changes of clothes. ²³ And Naaman said, Take two talents of silver. And he took two talents of silver in two bags, and two changes of clothing, and put them upon two of his servants, and they bore them before him. ²⁴ And he came to a secret place, and took them from their hands, and laid them up in the house, and dismissed the men. ²⁵ And he went in himself and stood before his master. And Elisha said to him, ²⁶ From where have you come, Gehazi? And Gehazi said, Your servant has not been anywhere. And Elisha said to him, Did not my heart go with you, when the man returned from his chariot to meet you? And now you have received silver, and now you have received clothing, olive groves and vineyards, sheep and oxen, menservants, and maidservants. ²⁷ The leprosy also of Naaman shall cleave to you, and to your seed forever. And he went out from his presence leprous, like snow.

⁶ And the man of God said, Where did it fall? And he showed him the place. And he broke off a stick, and threw it in there, and the iron came to the surface.

¹² And one of his servants said, None, my Lord, O king, but Elisha the prophet that is in Israel reports to the king of Israel all the words that you speak in your bedroom.

¹⁷ And Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, open the eyes of the servant, I pray, and let him see. And the Lord opened his eyes, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses, and there were chariots of fire round about Elisha. ¹⁸ And they came down to him; and he prayed to the Lord, and said, Strike this people, I pray, with blindness. And He struck them with blindness, according to the word of Elisha.

²⁰ And it came to pass when they entered into Samaria, that Elisha said, O Lord, open their eyes, and let them see. And the Lord opened their eyes, and they saw; and behold, they were in the midst of Samaria.

²⁶ And the king of Israel was passing by on the wall, and a woman cried to him, saying, Help, my lord, O king. ²⁷ And he said to her, Unless the Lord help you, how shall I help you? From the threshing floor, or from the winepress?

¹ Then Elisha said, Hear the word of the Lord; Thus says the Lord: As at this time tomorrow a measure of fine flour shall be sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, in the gates of Samaria.

¹⁶ And the people went out, and plundered the camp of the Syrians. And a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, according to the word of the Lord, and two measures of barley for a shekel. ¹⁷ And the king appointed the officer on whose hand the king leaned to have charge over the gate; and the people trampled on him in the gate, and he died, as the man of God had said, who spoke when the messenger came down to him. ¹⁸ So it came to pass as Elisha had spoken to the king, saying, Two measures of barley shall be sold for a shekel, and a measure of fine flour for a shekel; and it shall be as at this time tomorrow in the gate of Samaria.

¹ And Elisha spoke to the woman whose son he had restored to life, saying, Arise and go, you and your household, and sojourn wherever you may sojourn; for the Lord has called for a famine upon the land; indeed it will come upon the land for seven years.

³ And it came to pass after the expiration of the seven years, that the woman returned out of the land of the Philistines to the city, and came to cry to the king for her house and for her land. ⁴ And the king spoke to Gehazi the servant of Elisha the man of God, saying, Please tell me of all the great things that Elisha has done.

⁴ And the king spoke to Gehazi the servant of Elisha the man of God, saying, Please tell me of all the great things that Elisha has done. ⁵ And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored to life the dead son, behold, the woman whose son Elisha restored to life came crying to the king for her house and for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life.

⁵ And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored to life the dead son, behold, the woman whose son Elisha restored to life came crying to the king for her house and for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life.

⁵ And it came to pass, as he was telling the king how he had restored to life the dead son, behold, the woman whose son Elisha restored to life came crying to the king for her house and for her land. And Gehazi said, My lord, O king, this is the woman, and this is her son, whom Elisha restored to life. ⁶ And the king asked the woman, and she told him. And the king appointed her a eunuch, saying, Restore all that was hers, and all the fruits of the field from the day that she left the land until now.

¹ And Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, Gird up your loins, and take this flask of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead.

⁵ And he went in, and behold, the captains of the army were sitting; and he said, I have a message for you, O captain. And Jehu said, To which one of us? And he said, To you, O captain.

¹⁸ And Elisha said to him, Take a bow and some arrows. And he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, Strike the ground. And the king struck three times, and he stopped. ¹⁹ And the man of God was grieved at him, and said, If you had struck five or six times, then you would have struck Syria till you had consumed them; but now you shall strike Syria only three times.

¹⁹ And the man of God was grieved at him, and said, If you had struck five or six times, then you would have struck Syria till you had consumed them; but now you shall strike Syria only three times.

¹² And he stood before the altar of the Lord in the presence of all the congregation of Israel, and spread out his hands. ¹³ For Solomon had made a bronze scaffold, and set it in the midst of the court of the sanctuary; the length of it was five cubits, and the breadth of it five cubits, and the height of it three cubits. And he stood upon it, and fell upon his knees before the whole congregation of Israel, and spread abroad his hands toward heaven,

¹³ And the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel were gathered to him out of all the coasts. ¹⁴ For the Levites left the tents of their possession, and went to Judah to Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons had rejected them so that they should not minister to the Lord.

² And some said, We are numerous with our sons and our daughters; so we will take grain, and eat, and live. ³ And some said, As to our fields and vineyards and houses, let us pledge them, and we will take grain, and eat. ⁴ And some said, We have borrowed money for the king's tributes — our fields, and our vineyards, and houses are pledged. ⁵ And now our flesh is as the flesh of our brothers, our children are as their children. Yet behold, we are reducing our sons and our daughters to slavery, and some of our daughters are enslaved; and there is no power of our hands, for our fields and our vineyards belong to the nobles.

¹³ But He answered and said, "Every plant which My heavenly Father has not planted will be uprooted.

²³ But He answered her not a word. And His disciples approached and urged Him, saying, "Send her away, for she cries out after us."

³² Now Jesus, having summoned His disciples, He said, "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been remaining with Me three days, and they do not have anything to eat.

³⁷ So they all ate and were satisfied. And they took up what they had left of the fragments, seven hampers full. ³⁸ Now those who ate were four thousand men, apart from women and children.

⁸ But Jesus, knowing about it, said to them, "O you of little faith, why are you reasoning among yourselves, because you did not take bread? ⁹ Do you not yet perceive, or remember the five loaves of the five thousand and how many baskets you took up? ¹⁰ Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand and how many hampers you took up?

¹⁶ So I brought him to Your disciples, but they were not able to heal him." ¹⁷ Then Jesus answered and said, "O unfaithful and perverted generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him here to Me." ¹⁸ And Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out from him; and the boy was healed from that very hour. ¹⁹ Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not cast it out?" ²⁰ So Jesus said to them, "Because of your unbelief; for assuredly I say to you, if you have faith like a mustard seed, you shall say to this mountain, 'Be moved from here to there,' and it shall move; and nothing shall be impossible for you.

³⁷ But answering, He said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said to Him, "Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?"

³⁷ But answering, He said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said to Him, "Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?"

And when they found out they said, "Five, and two fish."

³⁸ But He said to them, "How many loaves do you have? Go and see." And when they found out they said, "Five, and two fish." ³⁹ Then He gave orders for them all to recline in groups on the green grass.

³⁹ Then He gave orders for them all to recline in groups on the green grass. ⁴⁰ And they reclined in parties of hundreds and of fifties. ⁴¹ And taking the five loaves and the two fish, looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke the loaves, and was giving them to His disciples, so that they might set them before them; and the two fish He divided to all. ⁴² So they all ate and were filled.

⁴³ And they took up twelve baskets full of fragments and from the fish. ⁴⁴ Now those who had eaten the loaves were five thousand men.

² I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been remaining with Me three days and have nothing to eat. ³ And if I dismiss them hungry to their own houses, they will faint on the way; for some of them have come from a distance." ⁴ Then His disciples answered Him, "From where will anyone be able to satisfy these people with bread here in this deserted place?"

⁴ Then His disciples answered Him, "From where will anyone be able to satisfy these people with bread here in this deserted place?" ⁵ He asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" And they said, "Seven."

⁵ He asked them, "How many loaves do you have?" And they said, "Seven." ⁶ So He commanded the crowd to recline on the ground.

⁶ So He commanded the crowd to recline on the ground. And He took the seven loaves and having given thanks, He broke them and was giving them to His disciples, so that they might set them before the people; and they set them before the crowd. ⁷ And they had a few small fish; and having blessed them, He said to set them before the people. ⁸ So they ate and were filled, and they took up an abundance of fragments, seven hampers full. ⁹ Now those having eaten were about four thousand. And He dismissed them.

²⁰ "And when I broke the seven for the four thousand, how many hampers full of fragments did you take up?" And they said, "Seven."

¹⁹ He answered him and said, "O unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I bear with you? Bring him to Me." ²⁰ Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and having fallen on the ground he was rolling about, foaming at the mouth. ²¹ So He asked his father, "How long a time has it been that it has happened like this to him?" And he said, "From childhood. ²² And often it threw him both into the fire and into the waters so that it may destroy him. But if You are able to do anything, help us and have compassion on us." ²³ Jesus said to him, "If you are able to believe: all things are possible to him that believes." ²⁴ And immediately crying out, the father of the child said with tears, "I believe, Lord; help my unbelief!" ²⁵ When Jesus saw that a crowd was running together, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to him, "Mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter him no more!" ²⁶ Then having cried out and having convulsed him greatly, it came out. And he became as one dead, so that many were saying, "He is dead." ²⁷ But Jesus, having grasped him by the hand, lifted him up, and he arose. ²⁸ And after He entered into a house, His disciples asked Him privately, "Why were we not able to cast it out?" ²⁹ So He said to them, "This kind can come out by nothing but prayer and fasting."

⁴¹ For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you are Christ's, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.

¹³ And they were bringing to Him little children, that He might touch them; but the disciples were rebuking those who brought them.

⁶ But Jesus said, "Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has worked a beautiful work for Me.

¹⁸ they shall pick up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it shall by no means hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall be well."

⁷ But they had no children, because Elizabeth was barren, and they were both well advanced in years.

¹³ But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zacharias, because your prayer has been heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear a son to you, and you shall call his name John.

¹⁵ For he shall be great before the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink. He will also be filled with the Holy Spirit, while still in his mother's womb.

¹⁸ And Zacharias said to the angel, "How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years." ¹⁹ And the angel answered and said to him, "I am Gabriel, who stands before God, and I was sent to speak to you and to proclaim the good news to you of these things. ²⁰ But behold, you shall be silent and not able to speak until the day these things take place, because you did not believe my words which shall be fulfilled in their season."

²⁴ Now after those days Elizabeth his wife conceived; and stayed in seclusion five months, saying, ²⁵ "Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to take away my reproach among men."

³⁰ Then the angel said to her, "Fear not, Mary, for you have found grace with God. ³¹ And behold, you shall conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS.

³⁶ And behold, Elizabeth your relative has also conceived a son in her old age; and this is now the sixth month for she who was called barren.

⁴⁵ And blessed is she who has believed, because there shall be a fulfillment to the things having been spoken to her from the Lord."

³⁵ (yes, a sword will pierce through your own soul also), so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed."

⁴⁶ Now it came to pass that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both hearing them and questioning them.

²⁵ But I tell you truly, there were many widows in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, and there was a great famine all over the land;

¹⁹ And all the crowd was trying to touch Him, because power was going out from Him, and was healing them all.

¹² And when He came near the gate of the city, that behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And many people from the city was with her.

¹⁴ Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood still. And He said, "Young man, I say to you, arise." ¹⁵ So he who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He gave him to his mother.

¹⁵ So he who was dead sat up and began to speak. And He gave him to his mother.

³⁸ and standing by His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and was wiping them with the hair of her head; and she was kissing His feet and anointing them with the perfume.

³ and Joanna the wife of Chuza, a supervisor of Herod, and Susanna, and many others who were ministering to them from their belongings.

³⁵ Then they went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had come out of, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and being of sound mind. And they were afraid.

³⁸ Now the man from whom the demons had come out was begging Him that he might be with Him. But Jesus sent him away, saying,

⁵¹ When He came into the house, He permitted no one to enter except Peter, John, and James, and the father and mother of the child. ⁵² Now all were weeping and mourning for her; but He said, "Do not weep; she is not dead, but asleep." ⁵³ And they were ridiculing Him, knowing that she had died.

⁵⁵ Then her spirit returned, and she arose immediately. And He commanded something to be given to her to eat.

³ And He said to them, "Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor knapsack nor bread nor silver; and do not have two tunics apiece. ⁴ Whatever house you may enter, stay there, and from there go out. ⁵ And as many as will not receive you, when you go out from that city, shake off the very dust from your feet as a testimony against them."

¹³ But He said to them, "You give them something to eat." And they said, "We have no more than five loaves of bread and two fish, unless we go and buy food for all these people."

¹⁷ So they all ate and were satisfied, and twelve baskets of the remaining fragments were taken up by them.

⁴ Do not carry a money bag, nor a knapsack, nor sandals; and greet no one along the road.

³⁹ And the woman had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus' feet and was listening to His word.

²³ Then the master said to the servant, 'Go out into the roads and hedges, and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled.

²⁹ But they constrained Him, saying, "Stay with us, for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent." And He went in to stay with them.

⁷ Jesus said to them, "Fill the water jars with water." And they filled them up to the top.

⁷ Jesus said to them, "Fill the water jars with water." And they filled them up to the top. ⁸ And He said to them, "Draw out now, and carry some to the head steward." And they carried it. ⁹ Now when the head steward tasted the water which had become wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the head steward called the bridegroom

²⁷ And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He was speaking with a woman; however no one said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why are You speaking with her?"

⁵ Then Jesus lifted up His eyes, and seeing that a large crowd was coming toward Him, He said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread, that these people may eat?" ⁶ But this He said to test him, for He Himself knew what He was about to do. ⁷ Philip answered Him, "Two hundred denarii worth of bread is not enough for them, that each of them might receive a little."

⁹ There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they for so many?"

¹¹ And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were reclining; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wished.

¹¹ And Jesus took the loaves, and having given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those who were reclining; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wished. ¹² But when they were filled, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the leftover fragments, so that nothing may be lost."

¹² But when they were filled, He said to His disciples, "Gather up the leftover fragments, so that nothing may be lost." ¹³ Therefore they gathered them up, and they filled twelve baskets of fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

¹³ Therefore they gathered them up, and they filled twelve baskets of fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

⁶ Having said these things, He spat on the ground and made clay from the saliva; and He applied the clay on the eyes of the blind man.

³ Therefore the sisters sent to Him, saying, "Lord, behold, he whom You love is sick."

⁵ Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

¹¹ These things He said, and after this He said to them, "Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awaken him."

¹⁴ Then Jesus said to them plainly, "Lazarus is dead.

¹⁷ Therefore when He had come, Jesus found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

⁴¹ Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. ⁴² And I knew that You always hear Me, but because of the people standing around I said this, so that they may believe that You sent Me." ⁴³ And having said these things, He cried out with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth!" ⁴⁴ And the one having died came out, bound hands and feet with grave clothes, and his face was wrapped in a handkerchief. Jesus said to them, "Loose him, and let him go."

⁴ Then one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, son of Simon, who was about to betray Him, said, ⁵ Why was this perfume not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?" ⁶ This he said, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the money box; and he used to pilfer the things which were placed in it. ⁷ But Jesus said, "Let her alone; she has kept this for the day of My burial.

¹⁵ No longer do I call you servants, because a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because all things which I heard from My Father I have made known to you.

²⁴ Until now you have asked nothing in My name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.

⁵ Then Jesus said to them, "Children, have you any food?" They answered Him, "No."

⁹ Then as they got off onto the land, they saw a charcoal fire laid there, and fish placed on it, and bread.

⁶ But Peter said, "Silver and gold I do not have, but that which I do have, I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, rise and walk."

¹⁶ And on the basis of faith in His name, this one whom you observe and know, was made strong by His name. And the faith, which is by Him, has given to him this wholeness before you all.

³⁸ Now since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, having heard that Peter was in Joppa, sent to him, urging him not to delay in coming to them.

⁴⁰ But Peter, having put them all outside, knelt down and prayed. And turning to the body he said, "Tabitha, arise." And she opened her eyes, and seeing Peter, she sat up.

³⁸ Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed Him with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all those who were oppressed by the devil, because God was with Him.

⁵ And arriving in Salamis, they proclaimed the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. They also had John as their assistant.

²⁶ "Men, brothers, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, to you the message of this salvation has been sent.

³⁶ Then after some days Paul said to Barnabas, "Let us return now and visit our brothers in each city in which we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are doing."

¹⁵ And when she and her household were baptized, she urged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." So she persuaded us.

¹² so that even handkerchiefs or aprons from his skin were brought to those who were sick, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out from them. ¹³ Then some of the wandering Jews, exorcists, attempted to name the name of the Lord Jesus over those having the evil spirits, saying, "We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preaches." ¹⁴ Now there were seven sons of Sceva, a Jewish high priest, doing this. ¹⁵ But the evil spirit answered and said, "Jesus I know, and Paul I am acquainted with; but who are you?" ¹⁶ Then the man in whom was the evil spirit leaped upon them, and having subdued them, prevailed against them, so that they fled from that house naked and wounded. ¹⁷ Now this became known to all both Jews and Greeks who were dwelling in Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all, and they were praising the name of the Lord Jesus.

¹⁰ But Paul, going down, fell upon him, and embracing him said, "Do not be troubled, for his life is in him."

³ "I am indeed a Jew, having been born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but having been brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, having been educated according to the exactness of the law of our forefathers, being zealous for God just as you all are today.

⁵ Then, having shaken off the creature into the fire, he suffered nothing harmful.

¹³ sharing in the needs of the saints, pursuing hospitality.

¹⁷ Repay no one evil for evil; providing that which is good before all men.

² so that you may receive her in the Lord in a manner worthy of the saints, and you may stand by her in whatever thing she may need from you; for indeed she has proved to be a helper of many and of myself also.

⁶ Greet Mary, who labored much for us.

²⁵ Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

¹¹ If we have sown spiritual things for you, is it a great thing if we reap your material things?

¹⁰ as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

⁶ Let him who is taught the word share in all good things with him who teaches.

²⁰ Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly more than all the things which we ask or think, according to the power which is working in us,

¹⁴ Therefore He says: "Awake, you who are sleeping, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."

¹⁴ Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

⁸ Finally, brothers, as many things as are true, as many as are honorable, as many as are just, as many as are pure, as many as are lovely--if there is any virtue and if there is any praise--meditate on these things.

¹⁸ And I have all things and abound. I have been made full, having received from Epaphroditus the things sent from you, a fragrant aroma, an acceptable sacrifice, well pleasing to God. ¹⁹ And my God will supply all your need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

⁹ For you remember, brothers, our labor and toil; for laboring night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you, we proclaimed to you the gospel of God. ¹⁰ You are witnesses, and so is God, how devoutly and justly and blamelessly we were to you that believe;

¹⁰ You are witnesses, and so is God, how devoutly and justly and blamelessly we were to you that believe;

¹² in order that you may walk decently toward those outside, and may have need of nothing.

¹² And we request of you, brothers, to recognize those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord and instruct you, ¹³ and to regard them beyond all measure in love, because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.

⁷ For you yourselves know how you ought to follow us, for we were not disorderly among you; ⁸ nor did we eat bread from anyone without paying, but in labor and hardship, working night and day, so as not to be a burden to any of you, ⁹ not because we do not have authority, but in order that we may give ourselves as a pattern to you, so that you might follow us. ¹⁰ For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat! ¹¹ For we hear that some are walking among you in a disorderly way, not working at all, but being busybodies. ¹² And to such people we command and urge by our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread.

⁶ But godliness with contentment is great gain. ⁷ For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain that neither can we carry anything out! ⁸ But having food and clothing, with these things we shall be content.

¹¹ You however, O man of God, flee these things. But pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, gentleness.

¹⁶ May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphorus, because he often refreshed me, and he was not ashamed of my chain; ¹⁷ but when he arrived in Rome, he more diligently sought me out and found me. ¹⁸ May the Lord grant to him to find mercy from the Lord in that Day--and you very well know how many ways he served in Ephesus.

⁸ but hospitable, loving good, prudent, just, holy, temperate,

¹⁰ For God is not unjust to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

²⁴ And let us consider one another for the stirring up of love and of good works,

⁷ By faith Noah, having being warned By God concerning the things not yet seen, being reverent, prepared an ark for the salvation of his household, through which he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. ⁸ By faith Abraham obeyed when he was called to go forth to the place which he was about to receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going.

¹¹ By faith Sarah herself also received power for conception of seed, and she bore a child past the normal age, because she regarded Him faithful who had promised.

³⁵ Women received their dead back by resurrection. And others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, in order that they might obtain a better resurrection.

¹⁵ looking diligently lest anyone fall from the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness growing up cause trouble, and through this many be defiled;

² Do not forget hospitality, for through this some have unwittingly entertained angels.

⁵ Let your way of life be without loving money, being satisfied with what you have. For He Himself has said, "By no means shall I desert you, nor in any way shall I forsake you;"

⁵ Listen, my beloved brothers. Did God not choose the poor of the world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those that love Him?

¹³ For judgment is without mercy to the one who does not show mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

¹³ Does anyone among you suffer misfortune? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praises. ¹⁴ Is anyone among you sick? Let him call on the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. ¹⁵ And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, it will be forgiven him. ¹⁶ Confess your transgressions to one another, and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of the righteous is very powerful. ¹⁷ Elijah was a man of similar nature to us, and with a prayer, he prayed earnestly for it not to rain, and it did not rain upon the land for three years and six months. ¹⁸ And again he prayed, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.

¹³ Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, stay sober, put your hope fully in the grace brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

¹ Wives, likewise, subject yourselves to your own husbands, so that even if some are disobedient to the word, that by the conduct of their wives, without a word, they shall be gained for Christ,

⁹ Be hospitable to one another without grumbling. ¹⁰ As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

²¹ for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke, being brought along by the Holy Spirit.

² to remember the words having been previously spoken by the holy prophets, and the commandment of your apostles of the Lord and Savior;

⁴ Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy. For all nations shall come and worship before You, because Your righteous judgments have been manifested."

⁵ Then a voice came from the throne, saying, "Praise our God, all His servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!"
