Bible verses about "compassion" | Lamsa

³⁶ When Jesus saw the multitudes, he had compassion on them, because they were tired out and scattered, like sheep which have no shepherd.

¹ THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love in my heart, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. ² And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love in my heart, I am nothing. ³ And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love in my heart, I gain nothing. ⁴ Love is long-suffering and is kind; love does not envy; love does not make a vain display of itself, and does not boast, ⁵ Does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil; ⁶ Rejoices not over injustice, but rejoices in the truth; ⁷ Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. ⁸ Love never fails: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away. ⁹ For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. ¹⁰ But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is imperfect shall be done away. ¹¹ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. ¹² For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. ¹³ And now abides faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. *

⁹ The LORD is not negligent concerning his promises, as some men count negligence; but is longsuffering toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.

⁸ Finally, live in harmony, share the suffering of those who suffer, be affectionate one to another, and be kind and gentle:

¹⁴ And Jesus went out and saw large crowds, and he had pity for them, and healed their sick.

³ Blessed be God, even the Father of our LORD Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort; ⁴ Who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we also may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, by the very comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

² Bear one anotherÆs burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ.

¹² Therefore as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on mercy, kindness, gentleness, humbleness of mind, meekness, patience; ¹³ Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another; and if any one has a complaint against his fellow man, just as Christ forgave you, so should you also forgive.

³⁴ And when Jesus went out he saw large crowds, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them a great many things.

³² And be kind one to another and tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God has forgiven us through Christ.
