“This is why I tell you: Don’t worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food and the body more than clothing?

And why do you worry about clothes? Learn how the wildflowers of the field grow: they don’t labor or spin thread.

Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye but don’t notice the log in your own eye?

But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, you of little faith?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea. And there was a great calm.

But perceiving their thoughts, Jesus said, “Why are you thinking evil things in your hearts?

When the Pharisees saw this, they asked His disciples, “Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?”

Then John’s disciples came to Him, saying, “Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but Your disciples do not fast?”

Then the disciples came up and asked Him, “Why do You speak to them in parables?”

“This is John the Baptist!” he told his servants. “He has been raised from the dead, and that’s why supernatural powers are at work in him.”

Immediately Jesus reached out His hand, caught hold of him, and said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”

“Why do Your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they don’t wash their hands when they eat!”

He answered them, “And why do you break God’s commandment because of your tradition?

Aware of this, Jesus said, “You of little faith! Why are you discussing among yourselves that you do not have bread?

Why is it you don’t understand that when I told you, ‘Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees,’ it wasn’t about bread?”

So the disciples questioned Him, “Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?”

Then the disciples approached Jesus privately and said, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”

“Why then,” they asked Him, “did Moses command us to give divorce papers and to send her away?”

“Why do you ask Me about what is good?” He said to him. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”

Then about five he went and found others standing around, and said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day doing nothing?’

Where did John’s baptism come from? From heaven or from men?”

They began to argue among themselves, “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will say to us, ‘Then why didn’t you believe him?’

But perceiving their malice, Jesus said, “Why are you testing Me, hypocrites?

[“Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You devour widows’ houses and make long prayers just for show. This is why you will receive a harsher punishment.]

This is why I am sending you prophets, sages, and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify, and some of them you will flog in your synagogues and hound from town to town.

This is why you also must be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

When the disciples saw it, they were indignant. “Why this waste?” they asked.

But Jesus, aware of this, said to them, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a noble thing for Me.

“Friend,” Jesus asked him, “why have you come?”

Then they came up, took hold of Jesus, and arrested Him.

Then the high priest tore his robes and said, “He has blasphemed! Why do we still need witnesses? Look, now you’ve heard the blasphemy!

Then he said, “Why? What has He done wrong?”

But they kept shouting, “Crucify Him!” all the more.

About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Elí, Elí, lemá sabachtháni?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”
