'Stay' in the Bible

But when the man left, he began to proclaim it freely. He spread the news so widely that Jesus could no longer enter a town openly, but had to stay out in deserted places. Still, people kept coming to him from everywhere.

He spoke to his disciples that a little boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they wouldn't press on him.

Then He said to them, “Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you leave that place.

Watch out! Stay alert! For you do not know when the time will come.

It is like a man away on a journey, who upon leaving his house and putting his slaves in charge, assigning to each one his task, also commanded the doorkeeper to stay on the alert.

Stay alert, then, because you do not know when the owner of the house will return -- whether during evening, at midnight, when the rooster crows, or at dawn --

What I say to you I say to everyone: Stay alert!"

Then He said to them, “My soul is swallowed up in sorrow —to the point of death. Remain here and stay awake.”

Then He came and found them sleeping. “Simon, are you sleeping?” He asked Peter. “Couldn’t you stay awake one hour?

Stay awake and pray so that you won’t enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
