'Saints' in the Bible

Up! now, O Lord God, come back to your resting-place, you and the ark of your strength: let your priests, O Lord God, be clothed with salvation, and let your saints be glad in what is good.

As for the saints who are in the earth, they are the noble in whom is all my delight.

O have love for the Lord, all you his saints; for the Lord keeps safe from danger all those who are true to him, and gives the workers of pride their right reward.

Keep yourselves in the fear of the Lord, all you his saints; for those who do so will have no need of anything.

For the Lord is a lover of righteousness, and takes care of his saints; they will be kept safe for ever; but the seed of the evil-doers will be cut off.

I will give you praise without end for what you have done; I will give honour to your name before your saints, for it is good.

I will give ear to the voice of the Lord; for he will say words of peace to his people and to his saints; but let them not go back to their foolish ways.

In heaven let them give praise for your wonders, O Lord; and your unchanging faith among the saints.

You who are lovers of the Lord, be haters of evil; he keeps the souls of his saints; he takes them out of the hand of sinners.

Dear in the eyes of the Lord is the death of his saints.

He has put on high the horn of his people, for the praise of all his saints; even the children of Israel, a people which is near to him. Let the Lord be praised.

Let the saints have joy and glory: let them give cries of joy on their beds.

To give them the punishment which is in the holy writings: this honour is given to all his saints. Praise be to the Lord.

But the saints of the Most High will take the kingdom, and it will be theirs for ever, even for ever and ever.

And I saw how that horn made war on the saints and overcame them,

Till he came, who was very old, and the decision was made and the authority was given to the saints of the Most High; and the time came when the saints took the kingdom.

And he will say words against the Most High, attempting to put an end to the saints of the Most High; and he will have the idea of changing times and law; and the saints will be given into his hands for a time and times and half a time.

And the kingdom and the authority and the power of the kingdoms under all the heaven will be given to the people of the saints of the Most High: his kingdom is an eternal kingdom, and all powers will be his servants and do his pleasure.

And if those days had not been made short there would have been no salvation for any, but because of the saints those days will be made short.

For there will come up false Christs, and false prophets, who will do great signs and wonders; so that if possible even the saints might be tricked.

And he will send out his angels with a great sound of a horn, and they will get his saints together from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

And the resting-places of the dead came open; and the bodies of a number of sleeping saints came to life;

And if the Lord had not made the time short, no flesh would have been kept from destruction; but because of the saints he has made the time short.

Because there will be false Christs and false prophets, and they will give signs and wonders in the hope of turning even the saints from the true way.

And then he will send out the angels, and will get together his saints from the four winds, from the farthest part of the earth to the farthest part of heaven.

And will not God do right in the cause of his saints, whose cries come day and night to his ears, though he is long in doing it?

But Ananias said, Lord, I have had accounts of this man from a number of people, how much evil he has done to your saints at Jerusalem:

And it came about that while Peter was going through all parts of the country he came to the saints who were living at Lydda.

To the church of God which is in Corinth, to those who have been made holy in Christ Jesus, saints by the selection of God, with all those who in every place give honour to the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours:

How is it, that if any one of you has a cause at law against another, he takes it before a Gentile judge and not before the saints?

Is it not certain that the saints will be the judges of the world? if then the world will be judged by you, are you unable to give a decision about the smallest things?

For God is not a God whose ways are without order, but a God of peace; as in all the churches of the saints.

Seriously requesting us that they might have a part in this grace of being servants to the needs of the saints:

For this work of giving not only takes care of the needs of the saints, but is the cause of much praise to God;

All the saints send their love to you.

Paul, an Apostle of Christ Jesus by the purpose of God, to the saints who are at Ephesus, and those who have faith in Christ Jesus:

For this cause I, having had news of the faith in the Lord Jesus which is among you, and which you make clear to all the saints,

And that having the eyes of your heart full of light, you may have knowledge of what is the hope of his purpose, what is the wealth of the glory of his heritage in the saints,

So then you are no longer as those who have no part or place in the kingdom of God, but you are numbered among the saints, and of the family of God,

To me, who am less than the least of all the saints, was this grace given, so that I might make clear to the Gentiles the good news of the unending wealth of Christ:

May have strength to see with all the saints how wide and long and high and deep it is,

For the training of the saints as servants in the church, for the building up of the body of Christ:

But evil acts of the flesh and all unclean things, or desire for others' property, let it not even be named among you, as is right for saints;

With prayers and deep desires, making requests at all times in the Spirit, and keeping watch, with strong purpose, in prayer for all the saints,

Paul and Timothy, servants of Jesus Christ, to all the saints in Christ Jesus at Philippi, with the Bishops and Deacons of the church:

And you have knowledge, Philippians, that when the good news first came to you, when I went away from Macedonia, no church took part with me in the business of giving to the saints, but you only;

After hearing of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which you have for all the saints,

Giving praise to the Father who has given us a part in the heritage of the saints in light;

The secret which has been kept from all times and generations, but has now been made clear to his saints,

As saints of God, then, holy and dearly loved, let your behaviour be marked by pity and mercy, kind feeling, a low opinion of yourselves, gentle ways, and a power of undergoing all things;

So that your hearts may be strong and free from all sin before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

At his coming, when he will have glory in his saints, and will be a cause of wonder in all those who had faith (because our witness among you had effect) in that day.

Till I come, give attention to the reading of the holy Writings, to comforting the saints, and to teaching.

And if witness is given of her good works; if she has had the care of children, if she has been kind to travellers, washing the feet of the saints, helping those who are in trouble, giving herself to good works.

But I undergo all things for the saints, so that they may have salvation in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.

Paul, a servant of God, and an Apostle of Jesus Christ, in agreement with the faith of the saints of God and the full knowledge of what is true in harmony with religion,

Hearing of the love and the faith which you have to the Lord Jesus and to all the saints;

For I had great joy and comfort in your love, because the hearts of the saints have been made strong again through you, brother.

For God is true, and will not put away from him the memory of your work and of your love for his name, in the help which you gave and still give to the saints.

Give words of love from me to those who are rulers over you, and to all the saints. Those who are in Italy send you their love.

Peter, an Apostle of Jesus Christ, to the saints who are living in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia,

My loved ones, while my thoughts were full of a letter which I was going to send you about our common salvation, it was necessary for me to send you one requesting you with all my heart to go on fighting strongly for the faith which has been given to the saints once and for ever.

The prophet Enoch, who was the seventh after Adam, said of these men, The Lord came with tens of thousands of his saints,

And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and the four and twenty rulers went down on their faces before the Lamb, having every one an instrument of music, and gold vessels full of perfumes, which are the prayers of the saints.

And another angel came and took his place at the altar, having a gold vessel for burning perfume; and there was given to him much perfume, so that he might put it with the prayers of all the saints on the gold altar which was before the high seat.

And the smoke of the perfume, with the prayers of the saints, went up before God out of the angel's hand.

And the nations were angry, and your wrath has come, and the time for the dead to be judged, and the time of reward for your servants, the prophets, and for the saints, and for those in whom is the fear of your name, small and great, and the time of destruction for those who made the earth unclean.

And it was given to him to make war on the saints and to overcome them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and people and language and nation.

If any man sends others into prison, into prison he will go: if any man puts to death with the sword, with the sword will he be put to death. Here is the quiet strength and the faith of the saints.

Here is the quiet strength of the saints, who keep the orders of God, and the faith of Jesus.

For they made the blood of saints and prophets come out like a stream, and blood have you given them for drink; which is their right reward.

And I saw the woman overcome as with the wine of the blood of the saints, and the blood of those put to death because of Jesus. And when I saw her, I was overcome with a great wonder.

Be glad over her, heaven, and you saints, and Apostles, and prophets; because she has been judged by God on your account.

And in her was seen the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been put to death on the earth.

And to her it was given to be clothed in delicate linen, clean and shining: for the clean linen is the righteousness of the saints.

And they went up over the face of the earth, and made a circle about the tents of the saints, and the well loved town: and fire came down out of heaven for their destruction.

The grace of the Lord Jesus be with the saints. So be it.
