Jesus answered him, "It is said, 'You are not to put the Lord your God to the test.'"

He got into one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then Jesus sat down and taught the crowds from the boat.

When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, "Put out into the deep water and lower your nets for a catch."

"Everyone who comes to me and listens to my words and puts them into practice -- I will show you what he is like:

But the person who hears and does not put my words into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. When the river burst against that house, it collapsed immediately, and was utterly destroyed!"

"No one lights a lamp and then covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a lampstand so that those who come in can see the light.

Jesus said to him, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for the kingdom of God."

He went up to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring oil and wine on them. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

But the worker answered him, 'Sir, leave it alone this year too, until I dig around it and put fertilizer on it.

But the father said to his slaves, 'Hurry! Bring the best robe, and put it on him! Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet!

I know what to do so that when I am put out of management, people will welcome me into their homes.'

Then another slave came and said, 'Sir, here is your mina that I put away for safekeeping in a piece of cloth.

Why then didn't you put my money in the bank, so that when I returned I could have collected it with interest?'

He also saw a poor widow put in two small copper coins.

He said, "I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put in more than all of them.

For they all offered their gifts out of their wealth. But she, out of her poverty, put in everything she had to live on."

You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will have some of you put to death.
