But Herod the tetrarch heard of all that was done by him. And he was perplexed, because it was said by some that John was risen from the dead,

And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him.

But the multitudes perceiving it followed him: and he welcomed them, and spake to them of the kingdom of God, and them that had need of healing he cured.

But the day began to decline, and the twelve came and said to him, Send away the crowd that they may go into the villages around, and into the fields, and lodge and find victuals, for here we are in a desert place.

But he said unto them, Give ye them to eat. And they said, We have no more but five loaves and two fishes; except we should go and buy meat for all this people.

But He said to His disciples, "Make them sit down in parties of about fifty each."

They answering said, John the Baptist; but some say, Elias; and others say, that one of the old prophets is risen again.

He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

But he charged them, and commanded them to tell this to no man;

He said, "The Son of Man must suffer a great deal and be rejected by the elders, the high priests, and the scribes. Then he must be killed, but on the third day he will be raised."

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: but whosoever will lose his life for my sake, the same shall save it.

For what is a person benefited [if he] gains the whole world but loses or forfeits himself?

But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God.

But Peter and they that were with him were heavy with sleep: and when they were awake, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.

And it happened, as the two men were leaving Him, that Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is [so] good for us to be here. Let us make three [small] shelters, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." [But] he did not realize what he was saying. [See note at Matt. 17:4]

But as he was saying these things, there came a cloud and overshadowed them, and they feared as they entered into the cloud:

but a voice came from the cloud, "This is my Son, my Chosen one; listen to him."

And after the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. But the apostles kept quiet [about this incident], and did not tell anyone at that time about anything they had seen.

he is frequently seized by a spirit, which makes him immediately roar, then throws him into convulsions with foaming, and never leaves him, but with difficulty and bruises.

I begged Your disciples to cast it out, but they could not.”

And as he was yet a coming, the demon dashed him down, and tare him grievously. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

And they were all amazed at the mighty power of God. But while they wondered every one at all things which Jesus did, he said unto his disciples,

But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.

An argument started among them as to which of them might be the greatest [surpassing the others in esteem and authority].

But when Jesus saw the reasoning of their heart, he took a little child, and set him by his side,

But John, answering, said - Master! we saw some one, in thy name, casting out demons, - and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.

But Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not against you is for you.

but the people would not welcome Him, because He was traveling toward Jerusalem.

But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.

For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village.

And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.

And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and preach the kingdom of God.

And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.

But Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.

Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.

But whatever house ye come into, first say, Peace be to this house:

And if a son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon him: but if not, it shall turn to you again.

But remain in the same house, eating and drinking such as they have; for the laborer is worthy of his hire.

But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,

Even the dust of your city, which cleaves to us on the feet, do we shake off against you; but know this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh.

But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.

But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.

The one who listens to you listens to me, and the one who rejects you rejects me. But the one who rejects me rejects the one who sent me."

Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.

Yet in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject to you; but rather rejoice, that your names are written in heaven. In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in thy sight.

All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.

Because I tell you, many prophets and kings wanted to see the things you see but didn't see them, and to hear the things you hear but didn't hear them."

But he answering said, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thine understanding; and thy neighbour as thyself.

But he, willing to justify himself, said unto Jesus, And who is my neighbour?

Now by chance a priest was going down that road, but when he saw the injured man he passed by on the other side.

A Levite, too, did the same; he came up to the spot, but, when he saw the man, passed by on the opposite side.

But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was: and when he saw him, he had compassion on him,

But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me.

But the Lord answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art anxious and troubled about many things:

But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.

But of whom of you that is a father shall a son ask bread, and the father shall give him a stone? or also a fish, and instead of a fish shall give him a serpent?

But some of them said, He casteth out devils through Beelzebub the chief of the devils.

But others, to test Him, were demanding from Him a spectacular sign from heaven.

But he, knowing their thoughts, said unto them, Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and a house divided against a house falleth.

But if I by Beelzebub cast out demons, your sons by whom do they cast them out? For this reason they shall be your judges.

But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you.

While the strong one armed guardeth his palace, his goods are in peace. But

But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.

"When a foul spirit has left a man, it roams about in the Desert, seeking a resting-place; but, unable to find any, it says, 'I will return to the house I have left;"

But when it returns [to that body] it finds it cleaned out and [newly] decorated.

But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

And when the people were gathered thick together, he began to say, This is an evil generation: they seek a sign; and there shall no sign be given it, but the sign of Jonas the prophet.

The Queen of the South will awake at the Judgement together with the men of the present generation, and will condemn them; because she came from the extremity of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; but mark! One greater than Solomon is here.

The men of Nineveh will come up in the day of judging and give their decision against this generation: for they were turned away from their sins at the preaching of Jonah; but now something greater than Jonah is here.

No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.

The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.

Consider therefore whether the light that is in you is anything but mere darkness.

But as he spoke, a certain Pharisee asked him that he would dine with him; and entering in he placed himself at table.

But the Pharisee seeing it wondered that he had not first washed before dinner.

And the Lord said unto him, Now do ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the platter; but your inward part is full of ravening and wickedness.

But rather give alms of such things as ye have; and, behold, all things are clean unto you.

But woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over judgment and the love of God: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Hereupon one of the lawyers exclaimed, "But teacher, in saying such things you are also reproaching us also."

But He said, “Woe to you lawyers as well, because you weigh men down with burdens [man-made rules, unreasonable requirements] which are hard to bear, and you yourselves will not even touch the burdens with one of your fingers [to lighten the load].

Woe unto you, for ye build the sepulchres of the prophets, but your fathers killed them.

Alas for you experts in the Law! For you have taken the key to the door of knowledge, but you have not entered it yourselves, and you have kept out those who tried to enter."

But there is nothing covered up, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known.

But I say to you, my friends, Fear not those who kill the body and after this have no more that they can do.

But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him.

But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.

But I say to you, Whosoever shall confess me before men, the Son of man will confess him also before the angels of God;

But he that denieth me before men shall be denied before the angels of God.

And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.

But when they bring you before the synagogues and rulers and the authorities, be not careful how or what ye shall answer, or what ye shall say;

And one among the multitude said to Him, Master, speak to my brother to divide the inheritance with me: but He said unto him,

But he said unto him, Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?

But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?

"So is it with him who amasses treasure for himself, but has no riches in God."

But which of you by being careful can add to his stature one cubit?

Consider the lilies how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; but I say unto you, Not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed as one of these.

But if God doth so clothe the grass in the field, which to-day is, and to-morrow is cast into the oven; how much more'shall he clothe you, O ye of little faith?

therefore don't be concern'd about what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; but lay aside all your anxiety:

For all these things do the nations of the world seek after: but your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things.
