"Teacher, Moses wrote for us a law that, if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife but no child, the man should take the widow and raise up a family for his brother.

Then they asked Him, "Teacher, when will this be? And what is the sign that it is about to take place?"

So He said, "You must take care not to be misled about it! For many will come bearing the name of Messiah, and saying, 'I am He,' and, 'The time is near.' Do not go after them.

And when you hear of wars and tumults, never be panic-stricken. For this has to take place first, but the end will not come all at once."

But before all this takes place, people will arrest you and persecute you, and turn you over to synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake.

When these things begin to take place, look up and lift your heads, for your deliverance is drawing near."

"I solemnly say to you, this generation will not pass away before all this takes place.

But ever be watching and always praying, so that you may have strength to escape all this that is going to take place, and so you may take your stand in the presence of the Son of Man."

Then He said to them, "But now the man who has a purse must take it, and a bag too. And the man who does not have a sword must sell his coat and buy one.

"Father, if you are willing, take this cup away from me. Yet, not my will but always yours be done!"

Those who were about Him saw what was about to take place, and said, "Lord, shall we use our swords now?"

Then Jesus said to the high priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come to take Him, "Have you come out with swords and clubs as though I were a robber?

And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had taken their seats together, Peter, too, was sitting among them.

When the captain saw what had taken place, he praised God and said, "He certainly was an innocent man!"

and were talking together about all these things that had taken place.

Finally one of them, whose name was Cleopas, answered Him, "Are you the only visitor to Jerusalem who has not heard of the things that have taken place there in these last days?"

And after He had taken His place at table with them, He took the loaf and blessed it and broke it in pieces and handed it to them.

And while He was blessing them, He parted from them, and was taken up to heaven.

The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and he said, "Look! He is the Lamb of God who is to take away the world's sin.

Then He said to them, "Now draw some out and take it to the manager of the feast." So they took him some.

Then He said to the pigeon-dealers, "Take these things out of here! Stop using my Father's house as a market place!"

Then they were willing to take Him on board, and at once the boat came to the shore it was making for.

So many of His disciples, when they heard it, said, "This teaching is hard to take in. Who can listen to it?"

This is why the Father loves me, because I am giving my own life to take it back again.

No one has taken it from me, but I am giving it as a free gift. I have the right to give it and I have the right to take it back. I have gotten this order from my Father."

Jesus said to him, "Anyone who has taken a bath has no need of washing anything but his feet, but he is clean all over. And you are now clean, though not all of you are."

So when He had washed their feet and had put on His clothes and taken His place at the table, He said to them again: "Do you understand what I have done to you?

From now on I will tell you things before they take place, so that when they do take place, you may believe that I am the Christ.

And if I go and make it ready for you, I will come back and take you to be face to face with me, so that you may always be right where I am.

And now I have told you this before it takes place, that when it does take place you may believe in me.

but sorrow has taken complete possession of your hearts, because I have told you these things.

He will glorify me, because He will take the things that belong to me and tell them to you.

Everything that the Father has is mine; this is why I have told you, 'He will take the things that are mine and tell them to you.'

Pilate said to them, "Take Him yourselves, and try Him in accordance with your own law." Then the Jews said to him, "It is not lawful for us to execute the death penalty on anyone."

When the high priests and attendants saw Him, they shouted, "Crucify Him! Crucify Him!" Pilate said to them, "Take Him yourselves and crucify Him, for I can find no ground for a charge against Him."

And they said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "They have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have put Him."

Then He said to Thomas, "Put your finger here and look at my hands, and take your hand and put it in my side, and stop being an unbeliever, but be a believer!"

So that disciple whom Jesus used to love tenderly said to Peter, "It is the Lord!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he belted on his fisherman's coat, for he had taken it off, and plunged into the sea.

up to the day when through the Holy Spirit He gave the apostles whom He had chosen their orders, and then was taken up to heaven.

After saying this, He was taken up while they were looking at Him, and a cloud swept under Him and carried Him out of their sight.

and said to them, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up into heaven? This very Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will come back in just the way you have seen Him go up into heaven."

For in the Book of Psalms it is written: 'Let his estate be desolate, and let no one live on it,' and 'Let someone else take his position.'

So take care that what is said in the prophets does not come upon you:

Symeon has told how God at first graciously visited the heathen to take from among them a people to bear His name.

But Barnabas persisted in wanting to take along John who was called Mark.

Paul, however, did not consider such a man fit to take along with them, the man who deserted them in Pamphylia and did not go on with them to the work.

But Paul said to them, "They beat us in public and that without a trial, and put us in jail although we are Roman citizens! Let them come here themselves and take us out!"

We had already gone on board the ship and set sail for Assos, where we were to take Paul on board; for it had been so arranged by him, as he intended to travel there on foot.

Take them along with you, purify yourself with them, and bear the expense for them of having their heads shaved. Then everybody will know that none of those things they have been told about you are so, but that you yourself are living as a constant observer of the law.

As he was about to be taken into the barracks, Paul said to the colonel, "May I say something to you?" The colonel asked, "Do you know Greek?

Since the dispute kept growing hotter and hotter, the colonel became alarmed that Paul might be torn in pieces by them, and so ordered the army to march down and take him out of their hands and bring him back to the barracks.

They went to the high priests and elders and said to them, "We have taken a solemn oath not to taste a morsel till we have killed Paul.

So Paul called one of the captains and said, "Take this young man to the colonel, for he has something to tell him."

But do not yield to them, for more than forty of them are lying in wait for him; they have taken an oath not to eat or drink till they have killed him. They are all ready now, just waiting for your promise."

So they came back here with me, and I made no delay to take my seat on the judge's bench, and ordered the man to be brought in.

I myself, indeed, once thought it my duty to take extreme measures in hostility to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

As I have gotten help from God clear down to this very day, I stand here to testify to high and low alike, without adding a syllable to what Moses and the prophets said should take place,

Until day was about to break Paul kept begging them all to take something to eat. He said, "For fourteen days today you have been constantly waiting and going without food, not even taking a bite.

The natives kept on looking for him to swell up or suddenly drop dead, but after waiting a long time and seeing nothing unusual take place on him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.

For He says to Moses, "I will have mercy on any man that I choose to have mercy on, and take pity on any man that I choose to take pity on."

So take a look at the goodness and the severity of God; severity to those who have fallen, but goodness to you, on condition that you continue to live by His goodness; otherwise, you too will be pruned away.

And this my covenant I make with them, when I shall take away their sins."

for the gracious gifts and call of God are never taken back.

I fed you with milk, not solid food, for you could not take it. Why, you cannot take it even now,

Do you not know that your bodies are parts of Christ Himself? Then may I take away parts of Christ and make them parts of a prostitute? Never! Never!

Now I take up the matters about which you wrote me. It may be good thing for a man to remain unmarried;

Were you called while a slave? Stop letting that annoy you. Yet, if you can win your freedom, take advantage of such an opportunity.

It cannot be that we have no right to take a Christian wife about with us, can it, as well as the rest of the apostles and the Lord's brothers, and Cephas?

No temptation has taken hold of you but what is common to human nature. And God is to be trusted not to let you be tempted beyond your strength, but when temptation comes, to make a way out of it, so that you can bear up under it.

Women must keep quiet in the churches, for no permission is given them to speak. On the contrary, they must take a subordinate place, just as the law says.

But this I tell you, brothers: Our physical bodies cannot take part in the kingdom of God; what is decaying will never take part in what is immortal.

For I know that if this earthly tent in which I live is taken down, I have a building in heaven which comes from God, a house not built by human hands but eternal.

Make room for me in your hearts, I have not wronged or harmed or taken advantage of a single one of you.
