But when Jesus reached the spot he looked up and said to him, "Zacchaeus, come down at once, for I must stay at your house to-day."

The first came up saying, 'Your five pounds has made other fifty, sir.'

for I was afraid of you, you are such a hard man ??picking up what you never put down, and reaping what you never sowed.'

He replied, 'You rascal of a servant, I will convict you by what you have said yourself. You knew, did you, that I was a hard man, picking up what I never put down, and reaping what I never sowed!

With these words he went forward on his way up to Jerusalem.

A time is coming for you when your enemies will throw up ramparts round you and encircle you and besiege you on every side

One day, when he was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, up came the priests and scribes along with the elders.

Some of the Sadducees came up, who deny any resurrection, and put a question to him.

Looking up he saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury,

But when these things begin to happen, look up and raise your heads, for your release is not far distant."

Then he took a loaf, and after thanking God he broke it and gave it to them, saying, "This means my body given up for your sake; do this in memory of me."

He said to them, "Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you may not slip into temptation."

But they insisted, "He stirs up the people by teaching all over Judaea. He started from Galilee and now he is here."

but Jesus turned to them and said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, weep not for me but weep for yourselves and for your children!

The soldiers made fun of him too by coming up and handing him vinegar,

Peter did get up and run to the tomb, but when he looked in he saw nothing except the linen bandages; so he went away home wondering what had happened.

but the high priests and our rulers delivered him up to be sentenced to death and crucified him.

And they said to one another, "Did not our hearts glow within us when he was talking to us on the road, opening up the scriptures for us?"

And as he blessed them he parted from them [and was carried up to heaven].

Jesus said, "Fill up the jars with water." So they filled them to the brim.

Now the Jewish passover was near, so Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Jesus replied, "Destroy this sanctuary and I will raise it up in three days."

"This sanctuary took forty-six years to build," the Jews retorted, "and you are going to raise it up in three days!"

Indeed the Son of man must be lifted on high, just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert,

For God loved the world so dearly that he gave up his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life, instead of perishing.

but anyone who drinks the water I shall give him will never thirst any more; the water I shall give him will turn into a spring of water welling up to eternal life."

At this point his disciples came up; they were surprised that he was talking to a woman, but none of them said, "What is it?" or, "Why are you talking to her?"

After this there was a festival of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Jesus said to him, "Get up, lift your mat, and walk."

Now Jesus went up the hill and sat down there with his disciples.

On looking up and seeing a large crowd approaching, he said to Philip, "Where are we to buy bread for all these people to eat?"

And when they were satisfied, he said to the disciples, "Gather up the pieces left over, so that nothing may be wasted."

They gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with pieces of the five loaves left over from the meal.

and the sea was getting up under a strong wind.

and the will of him who sent me is that I lose none of those who are his gift to me, but that I raise them all up on the last day.

It is the will of my Father that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him should possess eternal life, and that I should raise him up on the last day."

No one is able to come to me unless he is drawn by the Father who sent me (and I will raise him up on the last day).

He who feeds on my flesh and drinks my blood possesses eternal life (and I will raise him up on the last day),

Go up to the festival yourselves; I am not going up to this festival, for my time has not arrived yet."

But after his brothers had gone up to the festival, he went up too, not publicly but as it were privately.

When the festival was half over, Jesus went up to the temple and began to teach.

Looking up, Jesus said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"

so Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of man, you will know then who I am, and that I do nothing of my own accord, but speak as the Father has taught me.

At this they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus concealed himself and made his way out of the temple.

Truly, truly I tell you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs up somewhere else, he is a thief and a robber;

This is why my Father loves me, because I lay down my life to take it up again.

No one takes it from me, I lay it down of my own accord: I have power to lay it down and also power to take it up again; I have my Father's orders for this.

The Jews again caught up stones to stone him.

Out came the dead man, his feet and hands swathed in bandages, and his face tied up with a towel. Jesus said, "Untie him, and let him move."

Now the passover of the Jews was near, and many people went up from the country to Jerusalem, to purify themselves before the passover.

They looked out for Jesus, and as they stood in the temple they said to one another, "What do you think? Do you think he will not come up to the festival?"

Next day the great mass of people who had come up for the festival heard that Jesus was entering Jerusalem,

Now there were some Greeks among those who had come up to worship at the festival;

But I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself."

So the people answered, "We have learned from the Law that the Christ is to remain for ever; what do you mean by saying that the Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?"

When I say 'you,' I do not mean you all; I know the men of my choice, and I made my choice that this scripture might be fulfilled, he who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.

Jesus answered, "If anyone loves me he will obey my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and take up our abode with him.

He who does not love me does not obey my word; and what you hear me say is not my word but the word of the Father who sent me.

If anyone does not remain in me he is thrown aside like a branch and he withers up; then the branches are gathered and thrown into the fire to be burned.

marching up to him and shouting, "Hail, king of the Jews!" ??and striking him.

And when Jesus took the vinegar, he said, "It is finished," bowed his head, and gave up his spirit.

they took and wrapped up the body of Jesus in the spices and in bandages, according to the Jewish custom of burial.

but that the napkin which had been round his head was folded up by itself, instead of lying beside the other bandages.

down to the day when, after issuing his orders by the holy Spirit to the disciples whom he had chosen, he was taken up to heaven.

On saying this he was lifted up while they looked on, and a cloud took him out of sight.

As he went up, their eyes were fixed on heaven; but just then two men stood beside them dressed in white,

who said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up to heaven? This Jesus who has been taken from you into heaven will come back, just as you have seen him depart to heaven."

Now during these days Peter stood up among the brothers (there was a crowd of about a hundred and twenty persons all together).

With the money paid him for his crime he purchased an estate; but swelling up he burst in two, and all his bowels poured out ??19 a fact which became known to all the residents in Jerusalem, so that the estate got the name, in their language, of Akeldamach or The Ground of Blood.

from the baptism of John down to the day when he was taken up from us ??of these men one must join us as a witness to his resurrection."

But Peter stood up along with the eleven, and raising his voice he addressed them thus: "Men of Judaea and residents in Jerusalem, let everyone of you understand this ??attend to what I say:

Peter and John were on their way up to the temple for the hour of prayer at three in the afternoon,

But Peter said, "I have no silver or gold, but I will give you what I do have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, [get up and] walk!"

The God of Abraham and the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob, the God of our fathers has glorified Jesus his servant, whom you delivered up and repudiated before Pilate. Pilate had decided to release him,

for Moses said, The Lord our God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brotherhood, as he raised me: you must listen to whatever he may tell you.

It was for you first that God raised up his Servant, and sent him to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways."

(A number of those who heard them speak believed, bringing up their numbers to [about] five thousand.)

But Peter and John replied, "Decide for yourselves whether it is right before God to obey you rather than God.

Certainly we cannot give up speaking of what we have seen and heard."

And the younger men rose, wrapped the body up and carried it away to be buried.

"We found the prison safely locked up with the sentries posted at the doors, but on opening the doors we found no one inside!"

Peter and the apostles answered, "One must obey God rather than men.

God lifted him up to his right hand as our pioneer and saviour, in order to grant repentance and remission of sins to Israel.

To these facts we bear witness, with the holy Spirit which God has given to those who obey him."

But a Pharisee in the Sanhedrin called Gamaliel, a doctor of the Law who was highly respected by all the people, got up and ordered the apostles to be removed for a few moments.

In days gone by Theudas started up, claiming to be a person of importance; a number of men, about four hundred of them, rallied to him, but he was slain, and all his followers were dispersed and wiped out.

After him Judas the Galilean started up at the time of the census, and got people to desert to him; but he perished too, and all his followers were scattered.

It was at this period that Moses was born, a divinely beautiful child. For three months he was brought up in his father's house;

then he was exposed, but Pharaoh's daughter adopted him and brought him up as her own son.

When Moses saw this, he marvelled at the sight; and as he went up to look at it, the voice of the Lord said,

(This was the Moses who told the sons of Israel, 'God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brotherhood, as he raised me.')

He, full of the holy Spirit, gazed up at heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at God's right hand.

but an angel of the Lord said to Philip, "Get up and go south, along the road from Jerusalem to Gaza" (the desert-route).

So he got up and went on his way. Now there was an Ethiopian eunuch, a high official of Candace the queen of the Ethiopians (he was her chief treasurer), who had come to Jerusalem for worship

The Spirit said to Philip, "Go up and join that chariot."

When Philip ran up, he heard him reading the prophet Isaiah. "Do you really understand what you are reading?"

he asked. "Why, how can I possibly understand it," said the eunuch, "unless some one puts me on the right track?" And he begged Philip to get up and sit beside him.

When they came up from the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, and the eunuch lost sight of him. He went on his way rejoicing,

Get up and go into the city. There you will be told what you have to do."
