But after a little while they who stood by, came up and said to Peter, Assuredly thou also art one of them: for even thy speech maketh thee manifest.

Then some of those who stood there, hearing him, said, This man is calling out for Elias.

And Jesus stood still, and ordered him to be called: and they call the blind man, saying to him, Cheer up, arise; he calleth thee.

Then some of those who stood by, said unto them, What are ye about, untying the colt?

And one particular person of those who stood by drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

And a maid-servant observing him again; began to say to those who stood by, This man is one of them.

Then he denied it again. And after a little while, they who stood by said to Peter, Of a certainty thou art one of them; for thou art a Galilean, and thy speech is correspondent.

And some of those who stood by, hearing him, said, Behold, he crieth for Elias.

And the centurion, who stood opposite to him, observing, that with such a cry he gave up the ghost, said, Assuredly this was the Son of God.

And approaching, he touched the bier: and the bearers stood still; and he said, Young man, I say to thee, Arise.

And as he was entering a certain village, ten leprous men met him, who stood at a distance:

Then Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be brought to him: and when he was come near, he asked him,

And he said to those who stood by, Take from him the maneh, and give it to him who hath the ten manehs.

And the chief priests and the scribes stood up vehemently accusing him.

And the people stood looking on. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if this fellow is the Messiah, the elect of God.

And all his acquaintance stood afar off, and the women which followed him from Galilee, beholding these things.

And it came to pass, as they were in the greatest perplexity concerning this matter, then behold, two men stood by them in refulgent garments:

While they were relating these things, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you!

Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood up and spake aloud, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink.

Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will practise. He was a murderer from the beginning, and stood not fast in the truth, because truth was not in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh what is peculiarly his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Then they sought for Jesus, and said one to another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?

The multitude that stood by, and heard it, said that it was thunder: others said, An angel hath spoken to him.

They answered him, Jesus the Nazarean. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. Then stood also Judas, who betrayed him, with these men.

But Peter stood without at the door. Then that other disciple, who was acquainted with the high-priest, went out, and spoke to the porteress, and introduced Peter.

Now the servants and inferior officers having made a fire, for it was cold, stood and warmed themselves: and there stood Peter with them, and warmed himself.

As he was thus speaking, one of the servants who stood by him gave Jesus a slap on the face, saying, Dost thou answer the high-priest in this fashion?

Now beside the cross of Jesus stood his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleopas, and Mary Magdalene.

Then Peter arose and went with them. And they carried him, on his arrival, into the upper room: and all the widows stood round him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas had made, whilst she was with them.

But while Peter was perplexed in himself what was meant by the vision which he had seen, then, behold! the men which had been sent by Cornelius having inquired out the house of Simon, stood before the door,

Then Cornelius said, Four days ago I was fasting till this hour; and at the ninth hour I was praying in my house, and, lo! a man stood before me in shining apparel,

And, lo! immediately three men stood before the house where I was, sent from Caesarea unto me.

And, lo! an angel of the Lord stood there, and light glared through the apartment: then with a stroke on Peter's side, he roused him up, and said, Arise quickly. And his chains fell from his hands.

But as the disciples stood around him, he arose, and entered into the city: and on the morrow he departed with Barnabas for Derbe.

And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good courage, Paul: for as thou hast borne testimony of the things concerning me at Jerusalem, so must thou bear a testimony at Rome also.

Or let the persons themselves here present say, if they found any thing criminal in me, when I stood before the sanhedrim,

For there stood by me this night an angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,

by whom also we have had an introduction through faith into this grace in which we have stood fast, and are rejoicing in hope of the glory of God.

But God commendeth his own love towards us, that, though we were yet sinners, Christ died in our stead.

But he that is stedfast in his heart, not having any necessity, but retaineth power over his own inclination, and hath determined this in his heart that he will preserve his own virgin state, doeth well.

NOW I make known unto you, brethren, the gospel which I have preached unto you, and which ye have received, in which also ye have stood fast;

until we all attain in the unity of the faith, and the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a state of complete manhood, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:

I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound; in every state and in all situations I am instructed either to be full or famishing, either to enjoy abundance, or to suffer want:

for kings, and all that are in a state of eminence, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and seriousness.

At my first apology no man stood by me, but all forsook me: (may it not be imputed to them!)

but the Lord stood by me, and strengthened me, that by me the preaching might be fully discharged, and that all the Gentiles might hear; and I was snatched out of the lion's mouth.

And all the angels stood in a circle about the throne, and the presbyters and the four living beings, and fell on their faces before the throne, and worshipped God,

And I saw the seven angels which stood before God, and there were given to them seven trumpets.

And another angel came, and stood by the altar, holding a golden censer; and there were given to him many perfumes, to offer with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

AND there was given me a cane like a measuring staff; and the angel stood by, saying, Arise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and those who worship therein.
