But no one is able to go into the house of the strong man and take his goods, without first putting cords round the strong man, and then he will take his goods.

And came to him and put clean linen round his wounds, with oil and wine; and he put him on his beast and took him to a house and took care of him.

Or how may one go into a strong man's house and take his goods, if he does not first put cords round the strong man? and then he may take his goods.

Give ear to another story. A master of a house made a vine garden, and put a wall round it, and made a place for crushing out the wine, and made a tower, and let it out to field-workers, and went into another country.

If anyone makes the house of God unclean, God will put an end to him; for the house of God is holy, and you are his house.

And keep in that same house, taking what food and drink they give you: for the worker has a right to his reward. Do not go from house to house.

On that day, if anyone is on the roof of the house, and his goods are in the house, let him not go down to take them away; and let him who is in the field not go back to his house.
