that you may be sons of your Father in heaven: he makes his sun rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.

Well then, whatever you would like men to do to you, do just the same to them; that is the meaning of the Law and the prophets.

Go and learn the meaning of this word, I care for mercy not for sacrifice. For I have not come to call just men but sinners."

As he said this, an official came in and knelt before him, saying, "My daughter is just dead; do come and lay your hand on her, and she will live."

Well then, just as the weeds are gathered and burnt in the fire, so will it be at the end of the world;

Then the just will shine like the sun in the Realm of their Father. He who has an ear, let him listen to this.

So will it be at the end of the world. The angels will go out and separate the evil from among the just

just as the Son of man has not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

So to men you seem just, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

Woe to you, you irreligious scribes and Pharisees! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the tombs of the just,

it is that on you may fall the punishment for all the just blood shed on earth from the blood of Abel the just down to the blood of Zechariah the son of Barachiah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar.

Then the just will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and fed you? or thirsty and gave you drink?

So they shall depart to eternal punishment, and the just to eternal life."

On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "Those who are strong have no need of a doctor, but those who are ill: I have not come to call just men but sinners."

so, leaving the crowd, they took him just as he was in the boat, accompanied by some other boats.

for Herod stood in awe of John, knowing he was a just and holy man; so he protected John ??he was greatly exercised when he listened to him, still he was glad to listen to him.

They were both just in the sight of God, blameless in their obedience to all the commands and regulations of God;

he will go in front of Him with the spirit and power of Elijah to turn the hearts of fathers to their children, turning the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make a people ready and prepared for the Lord."

I have not come to call just men but sinners to repentance."

Woe to you when all men speak well of you! that is just what their fathers did to the false prophets.

and so I did not consider myself fit even to come to you. Just say the word, and let my servant be cured.

Just as he was near the gate of the town, there was a dead man being carried out; he was the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. A large crowd from the town were with her.

Just then some Pharisees came up to tell him, "Get away from here, for Herod intends to kill you."

Then you will be blessed; for as they have no means of repaying you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the just."

Then he asked another, 'And how much do you owe?' 'A hundred quarters of wheat,' he said. 'Here is your bill,' said the factor, 'just enter eighty.'

But Abraham said, 'Remember, my son, you got all the bliss when you were alive, just as Lazarus got the ills of life; he is in comfort now, and you are in anguish.

And just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of man;

Or just as it was in the days of Lot; they were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting and building,

"Man," said Peter, "I do not know what you mean." Instantly, just as he was speaking, the cock crowed;

Now there was a man called Joseph, a member of council but a good and just man

It was the day of the Preparation and the sabbath was just dawning.

Just as they were speaking He stood among them [and said to them, "Peace to you!"]

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

and Jacob's spring was there. Jesus, exhausted by the journey, sat down at the spring, just as he was. It was about noon,

I can do nothing of my own accord; I pass judgment on men as I am taught by God, and my judgment is just, because my aim is not my own will but the will of him who sent me.

Just as the living Father sent me and I live by the Father, so he who feeds on me will also live by me.

Give over judging by appearances; be just."

just because he is a hired man, who has no interest in the sheep.

(just as the Father knows me and I know the Father,) and I lay down my life for the sheep.

Jesus answered him, "You do not understand just now what I am doing, but you will understand it later on."

The disciple just leant back on the breast of Jesus and said, "Lord, who is it?"

"Lord," said Peter, "why cannot I follow you just now? I will lay down my life for you."

Remain in me, as I remain in you: just as a branch cannot bear fruit by itself, without remaining on the vine, neither can you, unless you remain in me.

If you keep my commands you will remain within my love, just as I have kept my Father's commands and remain within his love.

I have still much to say to you, but you cannot bear it just now.

So with you. Just now you are in sorrow, but I shall see you again and your heart will rejoice ??with a joy that no one can take from you.

O just Father, though the world has not known thee, I have known thee, and they have known that thou hast sent me;

Jesus said to them, "Bring some of the fish you have just caught."

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."

but you repudiated the Holy and Just One; the boon you asked was a murderer,

Which of the prophets did your fathers fail to persecute? They killed those who announced beforehand the coming of the Just One. And here you have betrayed him, murdered him! ??53 you who got the Law that angels transmitted, and have not obeyed it!"

Peter was quite at a loss to know the meaning of the vision he had seen; but just then, the messengers of Cornelius, who had made inquiries for the house of Simon, stood at the door

Peter was just going into the house when Cornelius met him, fell at his feet, and worshipped him;

"Can anyone refuse water for the baptism of these people ??people who have received the holy Spirit just as we ourselves have?"

Now just as I began to speak, the holy Spirit fell upon them as upon us at the beginning;

The God who reads the hearts of all attested this by giving them the holy Spirit just as he gave it to us;

Paul was just on the point of opening his lips to reply, when Gallio said to the Jews, "If it had been a misdemeanour or wicked crime, there would be some reason in me listening to you,O Jews.

where he spent three months. Just as he was on the point of sailing for Syria, the Jews laid a plot against him. He therefore resolved to return through Macedonia.

Just as he was being taken into the barracks, Paul said to the commander, "May I say a word to you?" "You know Greek!" said the commander.

Then he said, 'The God of our fathers has appointed you to know his will, to see the Just One, and to hear him speak with his own lips.

For it is not the hearers of the Law who are just in the eyes of God, it is those who obey the Law who will be acquitted,

it was to demonstrate his justice at the present epoch, showing that God is just himself and that he justifies man on the score of faith in Jesus.

Just as David himself describes the bliss of the man who has righteousness counted to him by God apart from what he does ??7 Blessed are they whose breaches of the Law are forgiven, whose sins are covered!

Why, a man will hardly die for the just ??though one might bring oneself to die, if need be, for a good man.

Just as one man's disobedience made all the rest sinners, so one man's obedience will make all the rest righteous.

So the Law at any rate is holy, the command is holy, just, and for our good.

Thus God has mercy on anyone just as he pleases, and he makes anyone stubborn just as he pleases.

But what I have just said is by way of concession, not command.

But a slave who is called to be in the Lord is a freedman of the Lord. Just as a free man who is called is a slave of Christ

Well, what I think is this: that, considering the imminent distress in these days, it would be an excellent plan for you to remain just as you are.

just as the parts we consider rather dishonourable are the very parts we invest with special honour; our indecorous parts get a special care and attention

I told him of my pride in you, and I have not been disappointed. No, just as all I have had to say to you has been true, so all I said about you to Titus, all my pride in you, has also proved true.

At the same time I am sending these brothers just in case my pride in you should prove an empty boast in this particular instance; I want you to be "all ready," as I have been telling them that you would be,

but I am afraid of your thoughts getting seduced from a single devotion to Christ, just as the serpent beguiled Eve with his cunning.

It makes me satisfied, for Christ's sake, with weakness, insults, trouble, persecution, and calamity; for I am strong just when I am weak.

On the contrary, when they saw I had been entrusted with the gospel for the benefit of the uncircumcised, just as Peter had been for the circumcised

And because no one is justified on the score of the Law before God (plainly, the just shall live by faith, ??12 and the Law is not based on faith: no, he who performs these things shall live by them),

Do take my line, brothers, I beg of you ??just as I once took yours. I have no complaint against you;

but just as in the old days the son born by the flesh persecuted the son born by the Spirit, so it is still to-day.

Make no mistake ??God is not to be mocked ??a man will reap just what he sows;

These men who are keen upon you getting circumcised are just men who want to make a grand display in the flesh ??it is simply to avoid being persecuted for the cross of Christ.

and lead lives of love, just as Christ loved you and gave himself up for you to be a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her

For no one ever hates his flesh; no, he nourishes and cherishes it (just as Christ does the church

Finally, brothers, keep in mind whatever is true, whatever is worthy, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is attractive, whatever is high-toned, all excellence, all merit.

for you have started, my brothers, to copy the churches of God in Christ Jesus throughout Judaea; you have suffered from your compatriots just as they have suffered from the Jews,

They are proof positive of God's equity; you are suffering for the realm of God, and he means to make you worthy of it ??6 since God considers it but just to repay with trouble those who trouble you,

For these guides of theirs are hostile to the Truth, just as Jannes and Jambres were hostile to Moses; they are depraved in mind and useless for all purposes of faith.

Now the crown of a good life awaits me, with which the Lord, that just Judge, will reward me on the great Day ??and not only me but all who have loved and longed for his appearance.

he must be hospitable, a lover of goodness, master of himself, a just man, a religious man, and abstemious;

(for once a man enters his rest, he rests from work just as God did).

Also, it is an office which no one elects to take for himself; he is called to it by God, just as Aaron was.

Just as elsewhere he says, Thou art a priest for ever, with the rank of Melchizedek.

And just as it is appointed for men to die once and after that to be judged,
