'Answer' in the Bible

But he did not answer her a word. And his disciples came to him and asked him, saying, Dismiss her, for she cries after us.

And no one was able to answer him a word, nor did any one dare from that day to question him any more.

Then shall the righteous answer him saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, and nourished thee; or thirsting, and gave thee to drink?

Then shall they also answer saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, or thirsting, or a stranger, or naked, or ill, or in prison, and have not ministered to thee?

Then shall he answer them saying, Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as ye have not done it to one of these least, neither have ye done it to me.
