'Able' in the Bible

This man came to him at night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that [you are] a teacher who has come from God, for no one is able to perform these signs that you are performing unless God were with him."

Jesus answered and said to him, "Truly, truly I say to you, unless someone is born from above, he is not able to see the kingdom of God."

Nicodemus said to him, "How can a man be born [when he] is an old man? He is not able to enter into his mother's womb for the second time and be born, [can he]?"

Jesus answered, "Truly, truly I say to you, unless someone is born of water and spirit, he is not able to enter into the kingdom of God.

I am able to do nothing from myself. Just as I hear, I judge, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my [own] will, but the will of the one who sent me.

How are you able to believe, [if you] accept glory from one another, and do not seek the glory [which is] from the only God?

No one is able to come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up on the last day.

{Why} do you not understand my way of speaking? Because you are not able to listen to my message.

If this man were not from God, he would not be able to do anything!"

Others were saying, "These are not the words of one who is possessed by a demon! A demon is not able to open the eyes of the blind, [is it]?"

But some of them said, "Was not this man who opened the eyes of the blind able to do [something] so that this man also would not have died?"

For this [reason] they were not able to believe, because again Isaiah said,

Peter said to him, "Lord, why am I not able to follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!"

Thomas said to him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going. How are we able to know the way?"

the Spirit of truth, whom the world is not able to receive, because it does not see him or know [him]. You know him, because he resides with you and will be in you.

Remain in me, and I in you. Just as the branch is not able to bear fruit from itself unless it remains in the vine, so neither [can] you, unless you remain in me.

"I am the vine; you [are] the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him--this one bears much fruit, for apart from me you are not able to do anything.

I still have many [things] to say to you, but you are not able to bear [them] now.

And he said to them, "Throw the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find [some]." So they threw [it], and were no longer able to haul it in from the large number of the fish.
