"A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping [for] her children, and she did not want to be comforted, because {they exist no longer}."

And the one who wants to go to court with you and take your tunic, {let him have} your outer garment also.

Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.

Therefore [in] all [things], whatever you want that people should do to you, thus also you do to them. For this is the law and the prophets.

But go [and] learn what it means, "I want mercy and not sacrifice." For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

All [things] have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and {anyone to whom} the Son wants to reveal [him].

And if you had known what {it means}, 'I want mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless.

Then some of the scribes and Pharisees answered him saying, "Teacher, we want to see a sign from you!"

And he said to them, 'An enemy has done this!' So the slaves said to him, 'Then do you want us to go [and] gather them?'

Then Jesus answered [and] said to her, "O woman, your faith [is] great! Let it be done for you as you want." And her daughter was healed from that hour.

And Jesus summoned his disciples [and] said, "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have remained with me three days already and do not have anything to eat, and I do not want to send them away hungry lest they give out on the way."

Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone wants to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life on account of me will find it.

So Peter answered [and] said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good [that] we are here! If you want, I will make here three shelters, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah."

But he did not want to, but rather he went [and] threw him into prison until he would repay what was owed.

And he said to him, "Why are you asking me about [what is] good? There is one [who is] good. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments!"

Jesus said to him, "If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give [the proceeds] to the poor--and you will have treasure in heaven--and come, follow me."

Take [what is] yours and go! But I want to give to this last [person] [the same] as [I gave] to you also.

Is it not permitted for me to do whatever I want with [what is] mine? Or is your eye evil because I am generous?'

And he said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Say that these two sons of mine may sit one at your right hand and one at your left in your kingdom."

It will not be like this among you! But whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

and whoever wants to be most prominent among you must be your slave--

And Jesus stopped, called them, and said, "What do you want me to do for you?"

And he answered [and] said, 'I do not want to!' But later [he] changed his mind [and] went.

And he sent his slaves to summon those who had been invited to the wedding celebration, and they did not want to come.

Now on the first [day] of the feast of Unleavened Bread the disciples came up to Jesus, saying, "Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?"

So [after] they had assembled, Pilate said to them, "Whom do you want me to release for you--Jesus Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ?"

So the governor answered [and] said to them, "Which of the two do you want me to release for you?" And they said, "Barabbas!"

they gave him wine mixed with gall to drink, and [when he] tasted [it] he did not want to drink [it].

He trusts in God; let him deliver him now if he wants to, because he said, 'I am the Son of God'!"

And [when] the daughter of Herodias herself came in and danced and pleased Herod and {his dinner guests}, the king said to the girl, "Ask me [for] whatever you want, and I will give [it] to you."

And she came in immediately with haste to the king [and] asked, saying, "I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter immediately."

And [although he] was deeply grieved, the king, because of his oaths and {dinner guests}, did not want to refuse her.

And summoning the crowd together with his disciples, he said to them, "If anyone wants to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life on account of me and of the gospel will save it.

And from there they went out [and] passed through Galilee. And he did not want anyone to know,

And he sat down [and] called the twelve and said to them, "If anyone wants to be first, he will be last of all and servant of all."

And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to him [and] said to him, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask you."

And he said to them, "What do you want that I do for you?"

But it is not like this among you! But whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

and whoever wants to be most prominent among you must be the slave of all.

And Jesus answered him [and] said, "What do you want {me to do} for you?" And the blind man said to him, "Rabboni, that I may regain [my] sight."

For the poor you always have with you, and you can do good for them whenever you want, but you do not always have me.

And on the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread, when they sacrificed the Passover lamb, his disciples said to him, "Where do you want us to go [and] prepare, so that you can eat the Passover?"

So Pilate answered them, saying, "Do you want me to release for you the king of the Jews?"

So Pilate answered [and] said to them again, "Then what do you want me to do with [the one] whom you call the king of the Jews?"

And the devil said to him, "I will give you all this domain and their glory, because it has been handed over to me, and I can give it to whomever I want.

And no one [after] drinking old [wine] wants new, because he says, 'The old is [just] fine!'"

And just as you want people {to do} to you, do {the same} to them.

And he said to [them] all, "If anyone wants to come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross every day and follow me.

For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life on account of me, this person will save it.

Now [when] the disciples James and John saw [it], they said, "Lord, do you want us to call fire to come down from heaven and consume them?"

All [things] have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father and who the Father is except the Son, and [anyone] to whom the Son wants to reveal [him]."

At [that] same hour some Pharisees came up [and] said to him, "Go out and depart from here, because Herod wants to kill you!"

But he became angry and did not want to go in. So his father came out [and] began to implore him.

And in [addition to] all these [things], a great chasm has been established between us and you, so that those who want to cross over from here to you are not able [to do so], nor can they cross over from there to us.'

But the tax collector, standing far away, did not want even to raise his eyes to heaven, but was beating his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me, a sinner!'

"What do you want me to do for you?" And he said, "Lord, that I may regain [my] sight.

But his citizens hated him, and sent a delegation after him, saying, 'We do not want this man to be king over us!'

But these enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them--bring [them] here and slaughter them [in] my presence!'"

So they said to him, "Where do you want us to prepare [it]?"

Jesus, [when he] saw this one lying [there] and knew that he had [been sick] a long time already, said to him, "Do you want to become well?"

So Jesus said to the twelve, "You do not want to go away also, [do you]?"

And after these [things] Jesus was going about in Galilee. For he did not want to go about in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill him.

If anyone wants to do his will, he will know about my teaching, whether it is from God or I am speaking from myself.

You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father! That one was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand firm in the truth, because truth is not in him. Whenever he speaks the lie, he speaks from his own [nature], because he is a liar and the father {of lies}.

He replied to them, "I told you already and you did not listen! Why do you want to hear [it] again? You do not want to become his disciples also, [do you]?"

So these approached Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and began asking him saying, "Sir, we want to see Jesus."

If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you.

"Father, [those] whom you have given to me--I want that those also may be with me where I am, in order that they may see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.

But it is your custom that I release for you one [prisoner] at the Passover. So do you want [me] to release for you the king of the Jews?"

Truly, truly I say to you, when you were young, you tied [your clothes] around yourself and walked wherever you wanted. But when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will tie you up and carry [you] where you do not want [to go].

Jesus said to him, "If I want him to remain until I come, what [is that] to you? You follow me!"

So this saying went out to the brothers that that disciple would not die. But Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but "If I want him to remain until I come, what [is that] to you?"

You do not want to do away with me {the same way} you did away with the Egyptian yesterday, [do you]?'

And even some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him, and some were saying, "What does this babbler want to say?" But [others said], "He appears to be a proclaimer of foreign deities," because he was proclaiming the good news [about] Jesus and the resurrection.

For you are bringing some astonishing things to our ears. Therefore we want to know what {these things mean}."

So Agrippa [said] to Festus, "I want to hear the man myself also." "Tomorrow," he said, "you will hear him."

Now I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, that often I intended to come to you, and was prevented until now, in order that I might have some fruit among you also, just as also among the rest of the Gentiles.

For what I am doing I do not understand, because what I want [to do], this I do not practice, but what I hate, this I do.

But if what I do not want [to do], this I do, I agree with the law that [it is] good.

For the good that I want [to do], I do not do, but the evil that I do not want [to do], this I do.

But if what I do not want [to do], this I am doing, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin that lives in me.

Consequently, I find the principle with me, the one who wants to do good, that evil is present with me.

For I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, of this mystery, so that you will not be wise {in your own sight}, that a partial hardening has happened to Israel, until the full number of the Gentiles has come in,

For rulers are not a [cause of] terror for a good deed, but for bad [conduct]. So do you want not to be afraid of authority? Do what [is] good, and you will have praise from it,

For [the report of] your obedience has reached to all; therefore I am rejoicing over you, and I want you to be wise toward what [is] good, but innocent toward what [is] evil.

What do you want? Shall I come to you with a rod, or with love and a spirit of gentleness?

But I want you to be free from care. The unmarried person cares for the things of the Lord, how he may please the Lord.

For I do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud and all went through the sea,

[No], but that [the things] which they sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to become sharers with demons.

If any of the unbelievers invites you, and you want to go, eat everything that is set before you, {asking no questions} for the sake of the conscience.

But I want you to know that Christ is the head of every man, and the man [is the] head of the woman, and [the] head of Christ [is] God.

Now concerning spiritual [gifts], brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant.

Now I want you all to speak with tongues, but even more that you may prophesy. The one who prophesies [is] greater than the one who speaks with tongues, unless he interprets, in order that the church may receive edification.

But if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home, for it is shameful for a woman to speak in church.

For I do not want to see you now in passing, for I hope to remain some time with you, if the Lord allows [it].

For we do not want you to be ignorant, brothers, concerning our affliction that happened in the [province of] Asia, that we were burdened to an extraordinary degree, beyond [our] strength, so that we were in despair even of living.

For indeed we who are in this tent groan, being burdened {for this reason, that} we do not want to be unclothed, but to be clothed, in order that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

And I am giving an opinion in this [matter], because this is profitable for you who not only began previously, a year ago, to do [something], but also to want [to do it].
