Now while Peter was very perplexed in himself what the vision which he had seen might mean, behold, the men who were sent by Cornelius, having made inquiry for Simon's house, stood before the gate,

He said to them, "You yourselves know how it is an unlawful thing for a man who is a Jew to join himself or come to one of another nation, but God has shown me that I shouldn't call any man unholy or unclean.

When Peter had come to himself, he said, "Now I truly know that the Lord has sent out his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from everything the Jewish people were expecting."

On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.

Yet he didn't leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you rains from the sky and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness."

The jailer, being roused out of sleep and seeing the prison doors open, drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped.

neither is he served by men's hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life and breath, and all things.

He came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

Having sent into Macedonia two of those who served him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.

But we who went ahead to the ship set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for he had so arranged, intending himself to go by land.

From Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called to himself the elders of the assembly.

In all things I gave you an example, that so laboring you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"

Then Paul took the men, and the next day, purified himself and went with them into the temple, declaring the fulfillment of the days of purification, until the offering was offered for every one of them.

He called to himself two of the centurions, and said, "Prepare two hundred soldiers to go as far as Caesarea, with seventy horsemen, and two hundred men armed with spears, at the third hour of the night."

However Festus answered that Paul should be kept in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to depart shortly.

But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and as he himself appealed to the emperor I determined to send him.

The next day, we touched at Sidon. Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him permission to go to his friends and refresh himself.

When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

to demonstrate his righteousness at this present time; that he might himself be just, and the justifier of him who has faith in Jesus.

The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God;

In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don't know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can't be uttered.

For I say, through the grace that was given me, to every man who is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think reasonably, as God has apportioned to each person a measure of faith.

For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.

So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.

Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn't judge himself in that which he approves.

For even Christ didn't please himself. But, as it is written, "The reproaches of those who reproached you fell on me."

But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by no one.

If any man's work is burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but as through fire.

Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool, that he may become wise.

But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he doesn't discern the Lord's body.

He who speaks in another language edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the assembly.

For if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound, who would prepare himself for war?

But if there is no interpreter, let him keep silent in the assembly, and let him speak to himself, and to God.

If any man thinks himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him recognize the things which I write to you, that they are the commandment of the Lord.

When all things have been subjected to him, then the Son will also himself be subjected to him who subjected all things to him, that God may be all in all.

But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and gave to us the ministry of reconciliation;

namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, not reckoning to them their trespasses, and having committed to us the word of reconciliation.

For he indeed accepted our exhortation, but being himself very earnest, he went out to you of his own accord.

Not only so, but who was also appointed by the assemblies to travel with us in this grace, which is served by us to the glory of the Lord himself, and to show our readiness.

Do you look at things only as they appear in front of your face? If anyone trusts in himself that he is Christ's, let him consider this again with himself, that, even as he is Christ's, so also we are Christ's.

For it isn't he who commends himself who is approved, but whom the Lord commends.

For you bear with a man, if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, if he strikes you on the face.

Are they servants of Christ? (I speak as one beside himself) I am more so; in labors more abundantly, in prisons more abundantly, in stripes above measure, in deaths often.

who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father --

For before some people came from James, he ate with the Gentiles. But when they came, he drew back and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

For if a man thinks himself to be something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.

But let each man test his own work, and then he will take pride in himself and not in his neighbor.

having predestined us for adoption as children through Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his desire,

having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace;

being built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the chief cornerstone;

Walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling fragrance.

For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body.

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it;

that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Even so husbands also ought to love their own wives as their own bodies. He who loves his own wife loves himself.

Nevertheless each of you must also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects her husband.

doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself;

but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant, being made in the likeness of men.

And being found in human form, he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, yes, the death of the cross.

who will change the body of our humiliation to be conformed to the body of his glory, according to the working by which he is able even to subject all things to himself.

and through him to reconcile all things to himself, by him, whether things on the earth, or things in the heavens, having made peace through the blood of his cross.

Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way to you;

that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor,

For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with God's trumpet. The dead in Christ will rise first,

May the God of peace himself sanctify you completely. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

he who opposes and exalts himself against all that is called God or that is worshiped; so that he sits as God in the temple of God, setting himself up as God.

Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God our Father, who loved us and gave us eternal comfort and good hope through grace,

Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in all ways. The Lord be with you all.

who gave himself as a ransom for all; the testimony in its own times;

No soldier on duty entangles himself in the affairs of life, that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier.

If we are faithless, he remains faithful. He can't deny himself."

If anyone therefore purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor, sanctified, and suitable for the master's use, prepared for every good work.

who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify for himself a people for his own possession, zealous for good works.

His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification for our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,

For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.

For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from his.

The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with weakness.

Because of this, he must offer sacrifices for sins for the people, as well as for himself.

Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, just like Aaron was.

So also Christ didn't glorify himself to be made a high priest, but it was he who said to him, "You are my Son. Today I have become your father."

For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by none greater, he swore by himself,

who doesn't need, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices daily, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. For he did this once for all, when he offered up himself.

but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, not without blood, which he offers for himself, and for the errors of the people.

how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own,

or else he must have suffered often since the foundation of the world. But now once at the end of the ages, he has been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

For consider him who has endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, that you don't grow weary, fainting in your souls.

Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God," for God can't be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.

for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.

If anyone among you thinks himself to be religious while he doesn't bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man's religion is worthless.

You adulterers and adulteresses, don't you know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

Who, when he was cursed, didn't curse back. When he suffered, didn't threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously;

he who says he remains in him ought himself also to walk just like he walked.

Everyone who has this hope set on him purifies himself, even as he is pure.

He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself. He who doesn't believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.

We know that whoever is born of God doesn't sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn't touch him.

Therefore, if I come, I will call attention to his deeds which he does, unjustly accusing us with wicked words. Not content with this, neither does he himself receive the brothers, and those who would, he forbids and throws out of the assembly.
