(which means, ^cGod ^dwith us).

16 Simon Peter replied, ^d“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

6 He is not here, for he has risen, ^das he said. Come, see the place where he¹ lay.

46 And Joseph¹ bought a linen shroud, and taking him down, wrapped him in the linen shroud and laid him in a ^stomb that had been cut out of the rock. And he rolled a stone against the entrance of the tomb.

34 And Mary said to the angel, “How will this be, since I am a virgin?”¹

35 And the angel answered her, ⁱ“The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; therefore the child to be born¹ will be called holy—the ^jSon of God.

The Temptation of Jesus

1 ^lAnd Jesus, ^mfull of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the ⁿwilderness 2 for forty days, being tempted by the devil. And he ^oate nothing during those days. And when they were ended, he was hungry. 3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.” 4 And Jesus answered him, “It is written, ^p‘Man shall not live by bread alone.’” 5 And the devil took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time, 6 and said to him, “To you I will give all this authority and their glory, for it has been ^qdelivered to me, and I give it to whom I will. 7 If you, then, will ^rworship me, it will all be yours.” 8 And Jesus answered him, “It is written,

9 And he took him to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here, 10 for it is written,

11 and

12 And Jesus answered him, “It is said, ^v‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’” 13 And when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from him until an opportune time.

69 But from now on the Son of Man shall be ^yseated at the right hand of the power of God.”

The Word Became Flesh

1 ^aIn the beginning ^bwas ^cthe Word, and the Word was ^dwith God, and ^ethe Word was God.

14 And the Word ^xbecame flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his ^yglory, glory as of the only ^zSon¹ from the Father, full of ^agrace and truth.

18 ^hNo one has ever seen God; God the only Son, who¹ is ⁱat the Father’s side,^{2 j}he has made him known.

For God So Loved the World

16 “For God so loved the world,^{1 w}that he gave his only ^xSon, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

17 For God did not ^ysend his Son into the world ^zto condemn the world, but ^ain order that the world might be saved through him.

18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it up again. This ^dcharge I have received from my Father.”

Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet

1 Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that ^lhis hour had come ^mto depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.

30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished,” and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

Jesus’ Side Is Pierced

31 Since it was the day of Preparation, and ^yso that the bodies would not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was a high day), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away. 32 So the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first, and of the other who had been crucified with him. 33 But when they came to Jesus and saw that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. 34 But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and at once there came out ^zblood and water. 35 He who saw it has ^aborne witness—^bhis testimony is true, and he knows that he is telling the truth—^cthat you also may believe.

3 He presented himself alive to them after his suffering by many ^eproofs, appearing to them during forty days and speaking about the kingdom of God.

9 And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was ^slifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. 10 And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in ^twhite robes, 11 and said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was ^utaken up from you into heaven, will come ^vin the same way as you saw him go into heaven.”

23 this Jesus,¹ delivered up according to the definite plan and ^sforeknowledge of God, ^tyou crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men.

33 Being therefore ^bexalted ^cat the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the ^dpromise of the Holy Spirit, he has poured out this that you yourselves are seeing and hearing.

27 for truly in this city there were gathered together against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed, both ^sHerod and Pontius Pilate, along with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel,

28 to do whatever your hand and your plan had ^tpredestined to take place.

31 God ^qexalted him ^rat his right hand as ^sLeader and ^tSavior, to give repentance to Israel and forgiveness of sins.

34 Who is ^jto condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—^kwho is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.¹

4 that he was ^aburied, that he was raised on the ^bthird day in accordance with the Scriptures, 5 and that he ^cappeared to Cephas, then ^dto the twelve. 6 Then he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at one time, most of whom are still alive, though some have fallen asleep. 7 Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles.

25 For he must reign until ^vhe has put all his enemies under his feet.

6 ^bwho, ^cthough ^dhe was in the form of God, ^edid not count ^fequality with God a thing to be grasped,¹ 7 but ^gemptied himself, by taking the form of a servant,^{2 h}being born ⁱin the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he ^jhumbled himself by becoming ^kobedient to the point of death, ^leven death on a cross.

Put On the New Self

1 If then you have been ^draised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, ^eseated at the right hand of God.

13 And to which of the angels has he ever said,

14 Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, ^she himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of ^tdeath, that is, the devil,

17 Therefore he had to be made ^ulike his brothers ^vin every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful ^whigh priest in the service of God, to make ^xpropitiation for the sins of the people.

15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our ^oweaknesses, but one who ^pin every respect has been ^qtempted as we are, yet ^rwithout sin.

25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost¹ those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to ^ymake intercession for them.
