'Jesus Said' in the Bible

He brought him to Jesus. Looking at him, Jesus said, "You are Simon the son of John. You will be called Cephas" (which is interpreted "Peter").

On the next day he wanted to depart for Galilee, and he found Philip. And Jesus said to him, "Follow me!"

Nathanael said to him, Where did you get knowledge of me? In answer Jesus said, Before Philip was talking with you, while you were still under the fig-tree, I saw you.

In answer Jesus said to him, You have faith because I said to you, I saw you under the fig-tree. You will see greater things than these.

Then Jesus said to him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened up and the angels of God going up [from] and coming down on the Son of man" [i.e., probably a reference to angels ministering to Jesus' needs. See Matt. 4:6, 11; Luke 22:43].

When the wine was all gone, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no more wine.”

Jesus said to her, “[Dear] woman, what is that to you and to Me? My time [to act and to be revealed] has not yet come.”

Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim.

And Jesus said to them, Send destruction on this Temple and I will put it up again in three days.

when, then, he was raised out of the dead, his disciples remembered that he said this to them, and they believed the Writing, and the word that Jesus said.

Jesus said to him, Truly, I say to you, Without a new birth no man is able to see the kingdom of God.

Jesus said in answer, Truly, I say to you, If a man's birth is not from water and from the Spirit, it is not possible for him to go into the kingdom of God.

Then a woman from Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink”—

Jesus said to her, "Give me a drink" (for his disciples were gone away into the city to buy food.)

In answer Jesus said, If you had knowledge of what God gives freely and who it is who says to you, Give me water, you would make your prayer to him, and he would give you living water.

Jesus said, “Everyone who drinks from this water will get thirsty again.

At this, Jesus said, “Go, call your husband and come back.”

The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:

Jesus replied, “Woman, believe Me, a time is coming [when God’s kingdom comes] when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you, am He (the Messiah).”

Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to completely finish His work.

Then Jesus said to him, “Unless you [people] see [miraculous] signs and wonders, you [simply] will not believe.”

Jesus says to him, Go, thy son lives. And the man believed the word which Jesus said to him, and went his way.

So the father knew that it was at the same hour, in the which Jesus said unto him, Thy son liveth: and himself believed, and his whole house.

Jesus said to him, “Get up; pick up your pallet and walk.”

But Jesus said to them, "My Father is continuing to work and I am working."

So, Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son [of God] cannot do anything on His own [i.e., independently of the Father]; but [He does] what He sees His Father doing. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does as well.

Looking up, and noticing that a great crowd was coming towards him, Jesus said to Philip: "Where are we to buy bread for these people to eat?"

Jesus said this to test him, because he himself knew what he was going to do.

And Jesus said, Make the men sit down. Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand.

And when they had had enough, Jesus said to his disciples, Take up the broken bits which are over, so that nothing may be wasted.

But Jesus said to them, “It is I (I Am); do not be afraid.”

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven.

Then said they to him, Lord, ever give us this bread. And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life.

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

Jesus said all this in the synagogue while teaching at Capernaum.

But knowing in Himself that His disciples murmured about it, Jesus said to them, Does this offend you?

Jesus said therefore unto the twelve, Would ye also go away?

Then Jesus said, Did I not make a selection of you, the twelve, and one of you is a son of the Evil One?

Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is alway ready.

So, in reply, Jesus said: "My teaching is not my own; it is his who sent me.

Then, when he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus said with a loud voice, You have knowledge of me and you have knowledge of where I come from; and I have not come of myself; but there is One who has sent me; he is true, but you have no knowledge of him.

Therefore Jesus said, “For a little while longer I am [still] with you, and then I go to Him who sent Me.

Then, raising His head, Jesus said to her, "Where are they? Has no one condemned you?"

She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

Then again Jesus said to them, I am the light of the world; he who comes with me will not be walking in the dark but will have the light of life.

Jesus said in answer, Even if I give witness about myself, my witness is true, because I have knowledge of where I came from and where I am going; but you have no knowledge of where I come from or of where I am going.

Then they said to him, Where is your Father? Jesus said in answer, You have no knowledge of me or of my Father: if you had knowledge of me you would have knowledge of my Father.

Jesus said these things in the treasury, as He taught in the temple [courtyard]; and no one seized Him, because His time had not yet come.

Jesus said therefore again to them, "I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your sins. Where I go, you can't come."

They said therefore unto him, Who art thou? Jesus said unto them, Even that which I have also spoken unto you from the beginning.

Then Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will recognize that I am [he], and I do nothing from myself, but just as the Father taught me, I say these [things].

So Jesus was saying to the Jews who had believed Him, “If you abide in My word [continually obeying My teachings and living in accordance with them, then] you are truly My disciples.

They answered, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them, “If you are [truly] Abraham’s children, then do the works of Abraham and follow his example.

Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.

Jesus said in answer, If I take glory for myself, my glory is nothing: it is my Father who gives me glory, of whom you say that he is your God.

Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

Jesus said in answer, It was not because of his sin, or because of his father's or mother's; it was so that the works of God might be seen openly in him.

And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

"I do believe, Sir," said the man, and he prostrated himself at his feet. And Jesus said,

And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.

Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

Jesus said therefore again to them, 'Verily, verily, I say to you -- I am the door of the sheep;

Jesus said in answer, I have said it and you have no belief: the works which I do in my Father's name, these give witness about me.

The Jews again took stones with which to stone him. Jesus said to them.

Jesus answered them, “I showed you many good works [and many acts of mercy] from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?”

In answer, Jesus said, Is there not a saying in your law, I said, You are gods?

And [when he] heard [it], Jesus said, "This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, in order that the Son of God may be glorified through it."

Then Jesus said in answer, Are there not twelve hours in the day? A man may go about in the day without falling, because he sees the light of this world.

Then, therefore, Jesus said to them freely, 'Lazarus hath died;

Jesus told her, “Your brother will rise [from the dead].”

Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he stinketh: for he hath been dead four days.

Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you believe [in Me], you will see the glory of God [the expression of His excellence]?”

Out came the man who had been dead, his hands and feet tightly wrapped in burial cloths (linen strips), and with a [burial] cloth wrapped around his face. Jesus said to them, “Unwrap him and release him.”

So Jesus said, “Let her alone, so that she may keep [the rest of] it for the day of My burial.

And Jesus said to them in answer, The hour of the glory of the Son of man has come.

Jesus said in answer, This voice came not for me but for you.

Then Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you: for he that walketh in darkness knoweth not whither he goeth.

While ye have the light, believe in the light, that ye may become sons of light. Jesus said these things, and going away hid himself from them.

Then Jesus said with a loud voice, He who has faith in me, has faith not in me, but in him who sent me.

Jesus replied to him, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but you will [fully] understand it later.”

Peter said, I will never let my feet be washed by you, never. Jesus said in answer, If I do not make you clean you have no part with me.

Jesus said to him, “Anyone who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, and is completely clean. And you [My disciples] are clean, but not all of you.”

After Jesus said this, He felt disturbed in His spirit and declared, "Truly, truly, I tell you, one of you will turn me over [to the Jewish authorities]."

After [Judas had taken] the piece of bread, Satan entered him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you are going to do, do quickly [without delay].”

Now no one at the table knew why Jesus said this to him.

For some thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus said unto him, Buy what things we have need of for the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

Simon Peter said to him, Lord, where are you going? Jesus said in answer, Where I am going you may not come with me now, but you will come later.

Jesus said in answer, Will you give up your life for me? Truly I say to you, Before the cry of the cock you will have said three times that you are not my disciple.

Jesus said to him, “I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.

Jesus said to him, "Am I with you so long a time and you have not known me, Philip? The one who has seen me has seen the Father! How can you say, 'Show us the Father?'

Jesus said to him in answer, If anyone has love for me, he will keep my words: and he will be dear to my Father; and we will come to him and make our living-place with him.

Jesus said these [things], and lifting up his eyes to heaven he said, "Father, the hour has come! Glorify your Son, in order that your Son may glorify you--

They answered Him, “Jesus the Nazarene.” Jesus said, “I am He.” And Judas, who was betraying Him, was also standing with them.

When Jesus said, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.

Jesus said to them, "I [already] told you that I am [He]; so if you are looking for me, let these men [i.e., the apostles] go."

So Jesus said to Peter, “Put the sword [back] in its sheath! Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me?”
