7:1"Don’t judge, so that you won’t be judged. ^7:2For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever measure you measure, it will be measured to you. ^7:3Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the beam that is in your own eye? ^7:4Or how will you tell your brother, ‘Let me remove the speck from your eye;’ and behold, the beam is in your own eye? ^7:5You hypocrite! First remove the beam out of your own eye, and then you can see clearly to remove the speck out of your brother’s eye.

10:16"Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Therefore be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves. ^10:17But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to councils, and in their synagogues they will scourge you. ^10:18Yes, and you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. ^10:19But when they deliver you up, don’t be anxious how or what you will say, for it will be given you in that hour what you will say. ^10:20For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father who speaks in you.

12:46While he was yet speaking to the multitudes, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him. ^12:47One said to him, "Behold, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you."

18:15"If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother. ^18:16But if he doesn’t listen, take one or two more with you, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. ^18:17If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembly. If he refuses to hear the assembly also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a tax collector. ^18:18Most assuredly I tell you, whatever things you will bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever things you will loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. ^18:19Again, assuredly I tell you, that if two of you will agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven. ^18:20For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them."

18:21Then Peter came and said to him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Until seven times?"

18:29"So his fellow servant fell down at his feet and begged him, saying, ‘Have patience with me, and I will repay you.’ ^18:30He would not, but went and cast him into prison, until he should pay back that which was due. ^18:31So when his fellow servants saw what was done, they were exceedingly sorry, and came and told to their lord all that was done. ^18:32Then his lord called him in, and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt, because you begged me. ^18:33Shouldn’t you also have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?’ ^18:34His lord was angry, and delivered him to the tormentors, until he should pay all that was due to him. ^18:35So will my heavenly Father also do to you, if you don’t each forgive his brother from your hearts for his misdeeds."

19:27Then Peter answered, "Behold, we have left everything, and followed you. What then will we have?"

20:20Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, kneeling and asking a certain thing of him. ^20:21He said to her, "What do you want?"

She said to him, "Command that these, my two sons, may sit, one on your right hand, and one on your left hand, in your kingdom."

23:1Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples, ^23:2saying, "The scribes and the Pharisees sat on Moses’ seat. ^23:3All things therefore whatever they tell you to observe, observe and do, but don’t do their works; for they say, and don’t do. ^23:4For they bind heavy burdens that are grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not lift a finger to help them. ^23:5But all their works they do to be seen by men. They make their phylacteries broad, enlarge the fringes of their garments, ^23:6and love the chief place at feasts, the chief seats in the synagogues, ^23:7the salutations in the marketplaces, and to be called ‘Rabbi, Rabbi’ by men. ^23:8But don’t you be called ‘Rabbi,’ for one is your teacher, the Christ, and all of you are brothers. ^23:9Call no man on the earth your father, for one is your Father, he who is in heaven. ^23:10Neither be called masters, for one is your master, the Christ. ^23:11But he who is greatest among you will be your servant. ^23:12Whoever will exalt himself will be humbled, and whoever will humble himself will be exalted.

25:31"But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. ^25:32Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. ^25:33He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. ^25:34Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; ^25:35for I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me drink; I was a stranger, and you took me in; ^25:36naked, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to me.’

6:1He went out from there. He came into his own country, and his disciples followed him. ^6:2When the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, "Where did this man get these things?" and, "What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands? ^6:3Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?" They were offended by him.

10:38It happened as they went on their way, he entered into a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. ^10:39She had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard his word. ^10:40But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she came up to him, and said, "Lord, don’t you care that my sister left me to serve alone? Ask her therefore to help me."

12:13One of the multitude said to him, "Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me."

14:12He also said to the one who had invited him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, don’t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back. ^14:13But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind; ^14:14and you will be blessed, because they don’t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous."

14:25Now great multitudes went with him. He turned and said to them, ^14:26"If anyone comes to me, and doesn’t hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple. ^14:27Whoever doesn’t bear his own cross, and come after me, can’t be my disciple. ^14:28For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it? ^14:29Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him, ^14:30saying, ‘This man began to build, and wasn’t able to finish.’ ^14:31Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? ^14:32Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy, and asks for conditions of peace. ^14:33So therefore whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple. ^14:34Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it? ^14:35It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear."

15:11He said, "A certain man had two sons. ^15:12The younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of your property.’ He divided his living to them. ^15:13Not many days after, the younger son gathered all of this together and took his journey into a far country. There he wasted his property with riotous living. ^15:14When he had spent all of it, there arose a severe famine in that country, and he began to be in need. ^15:15He went and joined himself to one of the citizens of that country, and he sent him into his fields to feed pigs. ^15:16He wanted to fill his belly with the husks that the pigs ate, but no one gave him any. ^15:17But when he came to himself he said, ‘How many hired servants of my father’s have bread enough to spare, and I’m dying with hunger! ^15:18I will get up and go to my father, and will tell him, "Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in your sight. ^15:19I am no more worthy to be called your son. Make me as one of your hired servants."’

16:19"Now there was a certain rich man, and he was clothed in purple and fine linen, living in luxury every day. ^16:20A certain beggar, named Lazarus, was laid at his gate, full of sores, ^16:21and desiring to be fed with the crumbs that fell from the rich man’s table. Yes, even the dogs came and licked his sores. ^16:22It happened that the beggar died, and that he was carried away by the angels to Abraham’s bosom. The rich man also died, and was buried. ^16:23In Hades, he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and saw Abraham far off, and Lazarus at his bosom. ^16:24He cried and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue! For I am in anguish in this flame.’

17:1He said to the disciples, "It is impossible that occasions of stumbling should not come, but woe to him through whom they come! ^17:2It would be better for him if a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were thrown into the sea, rather than that he should cause one of these little ones to stumble. ^17:3Be careful. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he repents, forgive him. ^17:4If he sins against you seven times in the day, and seven times turns again, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall forgive him."

22:31The Lord said, "Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat, ^22:32but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers."

7:1After these things, Jesus walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him. ^7:2Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand. ^7:3His brothers therefore said to him, "Depart from here, and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do. ^7:4For no one does anything in secret, and himself seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world." ^7:5For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.
