Why do you worry about clothing? Think about how the flowers of the field grow; they do not work or spin.

Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye, but fail to see the beam of wood in your own?

But he said to them, "Why are you cowardly, you people of little faith?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was dead calm.

When Jesus saw their reaction he said, "Why do you respond with evil in your hearts?

When the Pharisees saw this they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?"

Then John's disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples don't fast?"

Then the disciples came to him and said, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"

Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him, saying to him, "You of little faith, why did you doubt?"

"Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don't wash their hands when they eat."

He answered them, "And why do you disobey the commandment of God because of your tradition?

When Jesus learned of this, he said, "You who have such little faith! Why are you arguing among yourselves about having no bread?

The disciples asked him, "Why then do the experts in the law say that Elijah must come first?"

Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why couldn't we cast it out?"

They said to him, "Why then did Moses command us to give a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her?"

He said to him, "Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."

And about five o'clock that afternoon he went out and found others standing around, and said to them, 'Why are you standing here all day without work?'

Where did John's baptism come from? From heaven or from people?" They discussed this among themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Then why did you not believe him?'

But Jesus realized their evil intentions and said, "Hypocrites! Why are you testing me?

When the disciples saw this, they became indignant and said, "Why this waste?

When Jesus learned of this, he said to them, "Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a good service for me.

Then the high priest tore his clothes and declared, "He has blasphemed! Why do we still need witnesses? Now you have heard the blasphemy!

He asked, "Why? What wrong has he done?" But they shouted more insistently, "Crucify him!"

At about three o'clock Jesus shouted with a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" that is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"

"Why does this man speak this way? He is blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?"

Now immediately, when Jesus realized in his spirit that they were contemplating such thoughts, he said to them, "Why are you thinking such things in your hearts?

When the experts in the law and the Pharisees saw that he was eating with sinners and tax collectors, they said to his disciples, "Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?"

Now John's disciples and the Pharisees were fasting. So they came to Jesus and said, "Why do the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples don't fast?"

So the Pharisees said to him, "Look, why are they doing what is against the law on the Sabbath?"

And he said to them, "Why are you cowardly? Do you still not have faith?"

While he was still speaking, people came from the synagogue ruler's house saying, "Your daughter has died. Why trouble the teacher any longer?"

When he entered he said to them, "Why are you distressed and weeping? The child is not dead but asleep."

The Pharisees and the experts in the law asked him, "Why do your disciples not live according to the tradition of the elders, but eat with unwashed hands?"

Sighing deeply in his spirit he said, "Why does this generation look for a sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to this generation."

When he learned of this, Jesus said to them, "Why are you arguing about having no bread? Do you still not see or understand? Have your hearts been hardened?

Then they asked him, "Why do the experts in the law say that Elijah must come first?"

He said to them, "Elijah does indeed come first, and restores all things. And why is it written that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be despised?

Then, after he went into the house, his disciples asked him privately, "Why couldn't we cast it out?"

Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.

If anyone says to you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The Lord needs it and will send it back here soon.'"

They discussed with one another, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Then why did you not believe him?'

But he saw through their hypocrisy and said to them, "Why are you testing me? Bring me a denarius and let me look at it."

But some who were present indignantly said to one another, "Why this waste of expensive ointment?

But Jesus said, "Leave her alone. Why are you bothering her? She has done a good service for me.

Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "Why do we still need witnesses?

Pilate asked them, "Why? What has he done wrong?" But they shouted more insistently, "Crucify him!"

Around three o'clock Jesus cried out with a loud voice, "Eloi, Eloi, lema sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?"

Now the people were waiting for Zechariah, and they began to wonder why he was delayed in the holy place.

When his parents saw him, they were overwhelmed. His mother said to him, "Child, why have you treated us like this? Look, your father and I have been looking for you anxiously."

But he replied, "Why were you looking for me? Didn't you know that I must be in my Father's house?"

When Jesus perceived their hostile thoughts, he said to them, "Why are you raising objections within yourselves?

But the Pharisees and their experts in the law complained to his disciples, saying, "Why do you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?"

But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing what is against the law on the Sabbath?"

Why do you see the speck in your brother's eye, but fail to see the beam of wood in your own?

"Why do you call me 'Lord, Lord,' and don't do what I tell you?

That is why I did not presume to come to you. Instead, say the word, and my servant must be healed.

When the woman saw that she could not escape notice, she came trembling and fell down before him. In the presence of all the people, she explained why she had touched him and how she had been immediately healed.

So if you cannot do such a very little thing as this, why do you worry about the rest?

"And why don't you judge for yourselves what is right?

So he said to the worker who tended the vineyard, 'For three years now, I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and each time I inspect it I find none. Cut it down! Why should it continue to deplete the soil?'

Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.

Why then didn't you put my money in the bank, so that when I returned I could have collected it with interest?'

If anyone asks you, 'Why are you untying it?' just say, 'The Lord needs it.'"

As they were untying the colt, its owners asked them, "Why are you untying that colt?"

So they discussed it with one another, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why did you not believe him?'

So he said to them, "Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you will not fall into temptation!"

Then they said, "Why do we need further testimony? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!"

A third time he said to them, "Why? What wrong has he done? I have found him guilty of no crime deserving death. I will therefore flog him and release him."

The women were terribly frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, "Why do you look for the living among the dead?

Then he said to them, "Why are you frightened, and why do doubts arise in your hearts?

So they asked John, "Why then are you baptizing if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?"

Jesus replied, "Woman, why are you saying this to me? My time has not yet come."

Now at that very moment his disciples came back. They were shocked because he was speaking with a woman. However, no one said, "What do you want?" or "Why are you speaking with her?"

Hasn't Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps the law! Why do you want to kill me?"

But if a male child is circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses is not broken, why are you angry with me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?

Then the officers returned to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, "Why didn't you bring him back with you?"

Why don't you understand what I am saying? It is because you cannot accept my teaching.

Who among you can prove me guilty of any sin? If I am telling you the truth, why don't you believe me?

He answered, "I told you already and you didn't listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You people don't want to become his disciples too, do you?"

This is why the Father loves me -- because I lay down my life, so that I may take it back again.

Many of them were saying, "He is possessed by a demon and has lost his mind! Why do you listen to him?"

"Why wasn't this oil sold for three hundred silver coins and the money given to the poor?"

(Now none of those present at the table understood why Jesus said this to Judas.

Peter said to him, "Lord, why can't I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!"

Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said the Spirit will receive from me what is mine and will tell it to you.

Why do you ask me? Ask those who heard what I said. They know what I said."

Jesus replied, "If I have said something wrong, confirm what is wrong. But if I spoke correctly, why strike me?"

They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" Mary replied, "They have taken my Lord away, and I do not know where they have put him!"

Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Who are you looking for?" Because she thought he was the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him."

and said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand here looking up into the sky? This same Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will come back in the same way you saw him go into heaven."

When Peter saw this, he declared to the people, "Men of Israel, why are you amazed at this? Why do you stare at us as if we had made this man walk by our own power or piety?

who said by the Holy Spirit through your servant David our forefather, 'Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot foolish things?

But Peter said, "Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and keep back for yourself part of the proceeds from the sale of the land?

Peter then told her, "Why have you agreed together to test the Spirit of the Lord? Look! The feet of those who have buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out!"

The next day Moses saw two men fighting, and tried to make peace between them, saying, 'Men, you are brothers; why are you hurting one another?'

He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?"

So Peter went down to the men and said, "Here I am, the person you're looking for. Why have you come?"

Therefore when you sent for me, I came without any objection. Now may I ask why you sent for me?"

"Men, why are you doing these things? We too are men, with human natures just like you! We are proclaiming the good news to you, so that you should turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and everything that is in them.

So now why are you putting God to the test by placing on the neck of the disciples a yoke that neither our ancestors nor we have been able to bear?

So then some were shouting one thing, some another, for the assembly was in confusion, and most of them did not know why they had met together.
