But Joseph her husband, because he was just a man and unwilling to disgrace her, was minded to put her away secretly.

But just as this thought occurred to him, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, and said, "Joseph, descendant of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for it is through the influence of the Holy Spirit that she has become an expectant mother.

Just at that time Jesus, coming from Galilee to the Jordan, presents Himself to John to be baptized by him.

But Jesus replied to him, “Permit it just now; for this is the fitting way for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John permitted [it and baptized] Him.

After Jesus was baptized, just as he was coming up out of the water, the heavens opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming on him.

Rejoice and exult; for plenteous is your reward in the heavens: for just so they persecuted the prophets who went before you.

Just so let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in the heavens.

Therefore, if you are offering your [sacrificial] gift on the Altar and [just then] you remember that your brother has a grievance against you,

But you should just say 'yes' [when you mean] yes, and 'no' [when you mean] no. Whatever you say beyond these [i.e., enforcing them by oaths] is of the evil one [i.e., the devil].

in order that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven, because he causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and he sends rain on the just and the unjust.

Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

When, therefore, thou mayest be doing an alms, do not sound a trumpet before thee, just as, the hypocrites, do in the synagogues and in the streets - that they may be glorified by men, - Verily, I say unto you, they are getting back their reward.

And, being at prayer, use not vain repetitions, just like the nations, - for they think, that, in their much speaking, they shall be hoard;

May your kingdom come [to earth]; may your will be done on earth just as it is [already being done] in heaven.

For just as you [hypocritically] judge others [when you are sinful and unrepentant], so will you be judged; and in accordance with your standard of measure [used to pass out judgment], judgment will be measured to you.

How can you say to your brother, 'Just let me get that speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a beam in your own?

Well then, whatever you would like men to do to you, do just the same to them; that is the meaning of the Law and the prophets.

Just so any sound tree bears good fruit, but a poor tree bears bad fruit.

Just then a person with an infectious skin disease came and worshiped Him, saying, "Lord, if you want to, you can heal me."

The centurion replied, "Sir, I am not worthy to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed,

"Go," Jesus told the centurion, "and it will be done for you, just as you have believed." And his servant was healed that very hour.

When evening came they brought many persons who were dominated by evil spirits to Jesus and He drove out the spirits with [just] a word and healed all those who were sick.

Just then, a scribe came up and told him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."

When He reached the other side, in the district of Gadara, there faced Him two men, who were under the power of demons, who were just coming out from the tombs. They were such terrors that nobody could pass that way.

Just then some people brought to him a paralytic lying on a stretcher. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, "Have courage, son! Your sins are forgiven."

"But go and learn what this means, "It is mercy I desire, and not sacrifice; for I am come not to call just men, but sinners."

[As] he was saying these [things] to them, behold, one of the rulers came [and] knelt down before him, saying, "My daughter has just now died, but come, place your hand on her and she will live!"

Just then a woman who had been suffering from chronic bleeding for twelve years came up behind him and touched the tassel of his garment,

because she had been saying to herself, "If I just touch his robe, I will get well."

Just as they were going out, some people brought up to Jesus a dumb man who was possessed by a demon;

Cure the sick, raise the dead, heal lepers, drive out demons. Give without payment, just as you received without payment.

he that receives a prophet in quality of a prophet, shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receives a just man, as such, shall receive the reward of the just.

And whoever gives just a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is a disciple—I assure you: He will never lose his reward!”

The Son of Man came eating and drinking with others, and they say, 'Just look at Him! A glutton and a wine-drinker, a chum of tax-collectors and notorious sinners!' And yet wisdom is vindicated by her doings!"

And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to Him, "Just look! Your disciples are doing something that it is against the law to do on the sabbath!"

Then he told the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out; and it was restored whole, just like the other.

“A battered reed He will not break,
And a smoldering wick He will not extinguish,
Until He leads justice to victory.

For just as Jonah was in the belly of the huge fish three days and three nights, so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights.

Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and settle there. And so the final condition of that person becomes worse than the first. That's just what will happen to this evil generation!"

He answered the person who told Him, "[Just] who is my mother? And who are my brothers?"

Great crowds gathered around Him so that He went and sat down in a boat [just off shore], while the crowd stood on the beach.

for I declare unto you, that many prophets and just men have desired to see what ye see, and have not seen it: and to hear what ye hear, and have not heard it.

but it takes no real root in him, and he lasts only a little while, and just as soon as suffering and persecution come for the truth's sake, he at once yields and falls.

Thus just as the darnel is gathered and burned with fire, so it will be at the end of the age.

"And then shall the just shine forth like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Let him who has ears to hear, listen!

Thus shall it be in the completion of the age: the angels shall go forth and sever the wicked from the midst of the just,

and his sisters, don't they live just by us? how came he then by all this?

Just then Herod, the Tetrarch, heard of Jesus' fame, and said to his courtiers.

For Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him out of the way by putting him in prison, just to please Herodias, his brother Philip's wife,

Just before day He went out to them, walking on the sea.

Just then Jesus called out to them, "Take courage and do not be afraid; it is I."

They kept begging him to let them touch just the tassel of his garment, and everyone who touched it was completely healed.

Then His disciples came up to Him and asked, "Do you know that the Pharisees were knocked breathless to hear what you have just said?"

Just then a Canaanite woman from that region came and kept crying out, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is cruelly tormented by a demon.”

but he answered, it is not just to take the childrens bread, and throw it to puppies.

And I also tell you, [although] you are Peter [i.e., a stone], it is on this rock [i.e., the truth you have just confessed] that I will build my church and [not even] the gates of the unseen place of departed spirits will win out over it [i.e., all efforts to stamp out the church by killing Christians will fail].

It was just after that that Jesus Christ for the first time clearly taught His disciples that He had to go to Jerusalem and submit to many forms of suffering at the hands of the elders, high priests, and scribes, and be killed, but be raised to life on the third day.

While he was still talking, suddenly a bright cloud engulfed them. Just then, a voice spoke out of the cloud, saying, "This is my dearly loved Son, who is very pleasing to me; listen to Him."

And as they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus ordered them, saying, "Do not tell anyone about the vision [you have just seen] until the Son of man has been raised from the dead."

But, I say unto you - that, Elijah, just now, came, - and they recognised him not, but did with him, whatsoever they pleased: Thus, the Son of Man also, is destined to suffer by them.

Just at that moment the disciples came up and asked Jesus, "Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"

"Just so it is not the will of my Father in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

"And if your brother sins against you, go and show him where he wronged you, [but] keep it between just the two of you. If he listens to you [i.e., accepts your reasoning and repents], you have won your brother [back].

But, if he hear them amiss, tell it to the assembly, - And, if, even the assembly, he hear amiss, Let him be unto thee, just as the man of the nations and the tax-collector.

Just then Peter came to him, and asked him, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?"

Jesus told him, "I tell you, not just seven times, but 77 times!

"'Ought not you also to have had pity on your fellow slave, just as I had pity on you?'

Just then a man came up to Jesus. "Teacher," he asked, "what good deed should I do to have eternal life?"

and to them he said, Go also ye into the vineyard, and whatsoever may be just I will give you. And they went their way.

They say to him, Because no man has hired us. He says to them, Go also ye into the vineyard and whatsoever may be just ye shall receive.

Take that which is yours, and go your way. It is my desire to give to this last just as much as to you.

Just as the Son of Man came, not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

Just then, two blind men sitting along side of the road heard that Jesus was passing by that way. [So], they shouted out, "Lord, take pity on us, son of David."

So the disciples went and did just as Jesus directed them,

Jesus answered them, "Let me too ask you just one question, and if you answer it, I will tell you what sort of authority I have for doing as I do.

But they do all their deeds just to be seen by people. They wear elaborate Scripture texts displayed on their clothing and enlarge [conspicuously] the fringes of their robes.

[“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.]

"Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for you pay the tithe on mint, dill, and cumin, while you have neglected the weightier requirements of the Law--just judgement, mercy, and faithful dealing. These things you ought to have done, and yet you ought not to have left the others undone.

"Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for you are just like whitewashed sepulchres, the outside of which pleases the eye, though inside they are full of dead men's bones and of all that is unclean.

So also you outwardly appear to men to be just, but within you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets and adorn the tombs of the just,

that upon you may come all the righteous blood which has been shed upon the earth, from the blood of Abel the just to the blood of Zachariah, the son of Barachiah, whom you slew between the temple and the altar.

"O Jerusalem, Jerusalem! thou who murderest the Prophets and stonest those who have been sent to thee! how often have I desired to gather thy children to me, just as a hen gathers her chickens under her wings, and you would not come!

And as He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, His disciples came to Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things [you just spoke of] happen? And what will be the sign that indicates your presence and the end of the [present] age?"

For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so the coming of the Son of Man will be.

"Now learn what the story of the fig tree means. Just as soon as its branches grow tender, and put forth leaves, you know that summer is near.

just so ye, when ye behold these things, know that it is near, even at the gates.

For just as the days of Noah [were], so the coming of the Son of Man will be.

For just as in the days before the deluge they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the very day when Noah entered the ark,

Therefore, do you also prepare, since it is just when you are least expecting him that the Son of Man will come.

For it is, just as a man, who, going from home, called his own servants, and delivered up to them his substance;

And there will be gathered before him, all the nations, and he will separate them one from another, just as, the shepherd! separateth the sheep from the goats, -

Then the just will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and fed you? or thirsty and gave you drink?

And the king will answer them, 'I tell you the truth, just as you did it for one of the least of these brothers or sisters of mine, you did it for me.'

Then he will answer them, 'I tell you the truth, just as you did not do it for one of the least of these, you did not do it for me.'

So they shall depart to eternal punishment, and the just to eternal life."

And the disciples did [just] as Jesus had asked them, and they made preparations for the Passover meal.

He answered, "The man who has just dipped his hand with me in the dish is the man who is going to betray me.

The Son of Man is going just as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for him if that man had not been born."

And after they had sung a hymn, they went up to the Mount of Olives. [Note: This was a small hill just east of Jerusalem]
