but hospitable, loving what is good, sensible, righteous, holy, self-controlled,

It is necessary to silence them; they overthrow whole households by teaching what they shouldn’t in order to get money dishonestly.

But you must say the things that are consistent with sound teaching.

In the same way, older women are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not addicted to much wine. They are to teach what is good,

For this reason, although I have great boldness in Christ to command you to do what is right,

We must, therefore, pay even more attention to what we have heard, so that we will not drift away.

But one has somewhere testified:

What is man that You remember him,
or the son of man that You care for him?

Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s household, as a testimony to what would be said in the future.

(for we who have believed enter the rest), in keeping with what He has said:

So I swore in My anger,
they will not enter My rest.

And yet His works have been finished since the foundation of the world,

Though He was God’s Son, He learned obedience through what He suffered.

If then, perfection came through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law), what further need was there for another priest to appear, said to be in the order of Melchizedek and not in the order of Aaron?

Now the main point of what is being said is this: We have this kind of high priest, who sat down at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

By saying, a new covenant, He has declared that the first is old. And what is old and aging is about to disappear.

For you need endurance, so that after you have done God’s will, you may receive what was promised.

Now faith is the reality of what is hoped for, the proof of what is not seen.

By faith we understand that the universe was created by God’s command, so that what is seen has been made from things that are not visible.

By faith Noah, after he was warned about what was not yet seen and motivated by godly fear, built an ark to deliver his family. By faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.

And what more can I say? Time is too short for me to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets,

All these were approved through their faith, but they did not receive what was promised,

Endure suffering as discipline: God is dealing with you as sons. For what son is there that a father does not discipline?

For they disciplined us for a short time based on what seemed good to them, but He does it for our benefit, so that we can share His holiness.

and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated but healed instead.

For you have not come to what could be touched, to a blazing fire, to darkness, gloom, and storm,

for they could not bear what was commanded: And if even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned!

This expression, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what is not shaken might remain.

Your life should be free from the love of money. Be satisfied with what you have, for He Himself has said, I will never leave you or forsake you.

Therefore, we may boldly say:

The Lord is my helper;
I will not be afraid.
What can man do to me?

equip you with all that is good to do His will, working in us what is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ. Glory belongs to Him forever and ever. Amen.

For he looks at himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.

But the one who looks intently into the perfect law of freedom and perseveres in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but one who does good works—this person will be blessed in what he does.

What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can his faith save him?

and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well,” but you don’t give them what the body needs, what good is it?

for we all stumble in many ways. If anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a mature man who is also able to control his whole body.

What is the source of wars and fights among you? Don’t they come from the cravings that are at war within you?

You don’t even know what tomorrow will bring—what your life will be! For you are like smoke that appears for a little while, then vanishes.

They inquired into what time or what circumstances the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating when He testified in advance to the messianic sufferings and the glories that would follow.

For what credit is there if you sin and are punished, and you endure it? But when you do what is good and suffer, if you endure it, this brings favor with God.

And who will harm you if you are deeply committed to what is good?

But even if you should suffer for righteousness, you are blessed. Do not fear what they fear or be disturbed,

For the time has come for judgment to begin with God’s household, and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who disobey the gospel of God?

And if a righteous person is saved with difficulty,
what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?

Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, it is clear what sort of people you should be in holy conduct and godliness

What was from the beginning,
what we have heard,
what we have seen with our eyes,
what we have observed
and have touched with our hands,
concerning the Word of life—

what we have seen and heard
we also declare to you,
so that you may have fellowship along with us;
and indeed our fellowship is with the Father
and with His Son Jesus Christ.

What you have heard from the beginning must remain in you. If what you have heard from the beginning remains in you, then you will remain in the Son and in the Father.

If you know that He is righteous, you know this as well: Everyone who does what is right has been born of Him.

Dear friends, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet been revealed. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him because we will see Him as He is.

Little children, let no one deceive you! The one who does what is right is righteous, just as He is righteous.

This is how God’s children—and the Devil’s children—are made evident.

Whoever does not do what is right is not of God, especially the one who does not love his brother.

and can receive whatever we ask from Him because we keep His commands and do what is pleasing in His sight.

They are from the world. Therefore what they say is from the world, and the world listens to them.

For this is what love for God is: to keep His commands. Now His commands are not a burden,

And if we know that He hears whatever we ask, we know that we have what we have asked Him for.

Watch yourselves so you don’t lose what we have worked for, but that you may receive a full reward.

Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. The one who does good is of God; the one who does evil has not seen God.

But these people blaspheme anything they don’t understand. What they know by instinct like unreasoning animals—they destroy themselves with these things.

The revelation of Jesus Christ that God gave Him to show His slaves what must quickly take place. He sent it and signified it through His angel to His slave John,

The one who reads this is blessed, and those who hear the words of this prophecy and keep what is written in it are blessed, because the time is near!

saying, “Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.”

Therefore write what you have seen, what is, and what will take place after this.

“Anyone who has an ear should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches. I will give the victor the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in God’s paradise.

Don’t be afraid of what you are about to suffer. Look, the Devil is about to throw some of you into prison to test you, and you will have affliction for 10 days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.

“Anyone who has an ear should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches. The victor will never be harmed by the second death.

“Anyone who has an ear should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches. I will give the victor some of the hidden manna. I will also give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name is inscribed that no one knows except the one who receives it.

But hold on to what you have until I come.

“Anyone who has an ear should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.

Be alert and strengthen what remains, which is about to die, for I have not found your works complete before My God.

Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; keep it, and repent. But if you are not alert, I will come like a thief, and you have no idea at what hour I will come against you.

“Anyone who has an ear should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.

I am coming quickly. Hold on to what you have, so that no one takes your crown.

“Anyone who has an ear should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.

“Anyone who has an ear should listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.”

After this I looked, and there in heaven was an open door. The first voice that I had heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.”

And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write. Then I heard a voice from heaven, saying, “Seal up what the seven thunders said, and do not write it down!”

He swore an oath by the One who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and what is in it, the earth and what is in it, and the sea and what is in it: “There will no longer be an interval of time,

I also saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life, and the dead were judged according to their works by what was written in the books.

Nothing profane will ever enter it: no one who does what is vile or false, but only those written in the Lamb’s book of life.

Then he said to me, “These words are faithful and true. And the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent His angel to show His slaves what must quickly take place.”

“Look! I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me to repay each person according to what he has done.
