'People' in the Bible

And she will give birth to a son; and you will give him the name Jesus; for he will give his people salvation from their sins.

And he got together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, questioning them as to where the birth-place of the Christ would be.

You Beth-lehem, in the land of Judah, are not the least among the chiefs of Judah: out of you will come a ruler, who will be the keeper of my people Israel.

Then Jerusalem and all Judaea went out to him, and all the people from near Jordan;

The people who were in the dark saw a great light, and to those in the land of the shade of death did the dawn come up.

And Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their Synagogues and preaching the good news of the kingdom, and making well those who were ill with any disease among the people.

And seeing great masses of people he went up into the mountain; and when he was seated his disciples came to him.

And it came about, when Jesus had come to the end of these words, that the people were surprised at his teaching,

And when he had come down from the mountain, great numbers of people came after him.

And in the evening, they took to him a number of people who had evil spirits; and he sent the spirits out of them with a word, and made well all who were ill;

Now when Jesus saw a great mass of people about him, he gave an order to go to the other side.

But when the people saw it they were full of fear, and gave glory to God who had given such authority to men.

And when Jesus came into the ruler's house and saw the players with their instruments and the people making a noise,

But when the people were sent out, he went in and took her by the hand; and the girl got up.

But when he saw all the people he was moved with pity for them, because they were troubled and wandering like sheep without a keeper.

And when they were going away, Jesus, talking of John, said to all the people, What went you out into the waste land to see? a tall stem moving in the wind?

Ordering them not to give people word of him:

And all the people were surprised and said, Is not this the Son of David?

Whoever is not with me is against me; and he who does not take part with me in getting people together, is driving them away.

While he was still talking to the people, his mother and his brothers came, desiring to have talk with him.

And great numbers of people came together to him, so that he got into a boat; and the people took up their position by the sea.

For the heart of this people has become fat and their ears are slow in hearing and their eyes are shut; for fear that they might see with their eyes and give hearing with their ears and become wise in their hearts and be turned again to me, so that I might make them well.

All these things Jesus said to the people in the form of stories; and without a story he said nothing to them:

Then he went away from the people, and went into the house; and his disciples came to him, saying, Make clear to us the story of the evil plants in the field.

And he would have put him to death, but for his fear of the people, because in their eyes John was a prophet.

Now when it came to the ears of Jesus, he went away from there in a boat, to a waste place by himself: and the people hearing of it, went after him on foot from the towns.

And he came out and saw a great number of people and he had pity on them, and made well those of them who were ill.

And when evening had come, the disciples came to him, saying, This place is waste land, and the time is now past; send the people away so that they may go into the towns and get themselves food.

And he gave orders for the people to be seated on the grass; and he took the five cakes of bread and the two fishes and, looking up to heaven, he said words of blessing, and made division of the food, and gave it to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.

And straight away he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, till he had sent the people away.

And after he had sent the people away, he went up into the mountain by himself for prayer: and when evening was come, he was there by himself.

These people give me honour with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

And he got the people together and said to them, Give ear, and let my words be clear to you:

And there came to him great numbers of people having with them those who were broken in body, or blind, or without voice, or wounded, or ill in any way, and a number of others; they put them down at his feet and he made them well:

So that the people were full of wonder when they saw that those who had no voice were talking, the feeble were made strong, those whose bodies were broken had the power of walking, and the blind were able to see: and they gave glory to the God of Israel.

And Jesus got his disciples together and said, I have pity for the people, because they have now been with me three days and have no food: and I will not send them away without food, or they will have no strength for the journey.

And the disciples say to him, How may we get enough bread in a waste place, to give food to such a number of people?

Then he gave an order to the people to be seated on the earth,

And he took the seven cakes of bread and the fishes; and having given praise, he gave the broken bread to the disciples, and the disciples gave it to the people.

And when he had sent the people away, he got into the boat, and came into the country of Magadan.

And when they came to the people, a man went down on his knees to him, saying,

He says, Yes. And when he came into the house, Jesus said to him, What is your opinion, Simon? from whom do the kings of the earth get payment or tax? from their sons or from other people?

And when he said, From other people, Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free.

Then some people took little children to him, so that he might put his hands on them in blessing: and the disciples said sharp words to them.

And all the people put their clothing down in the way; and others got branches from the trees, and put them down in the way.

And the people said, This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.

And when he had come into the Temple, the chief priests and those in authority over the people came to him while he was teaching, and said, By what authority do you do these things? and who gave you this authority?

But if we say, From men; we are in fear of the people, because all take John to be a prophet.

And though they had a desire to take him, they were in fear of the people, because in their eyes he was a prophet.

And the people hearing it were surprised at his teaching.

Then Jesus said to the people and to his disciples:

For people will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and a number will be turned from the true way through them.

And numbers of people will be turned from the right way, and will give one another up and have hate for one another.

And because wrongdoing will be increased, the love of most people will become cold.

Then the chief priests and the rulers of the people came together in the house of the high priest, who was named Caiaphas.

But they said, Not while the feast is going on, for fear of trouble among the people.

And while he was still talking, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a band armed with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and those in authority over the people.

In that hour Jesus said to the people, Have you come out as against a thief with swords and sticks to take me? I was teaching every day in the Temple and you took me not.

And those who had made Jesus prisoner took him away to the house of Caiaphas, the high priest, where the scribes and those in authority over the people had come together.

Now at the feast it was the way for the ruler to let free to the people one prisoner, at their selection.

Now the chief priests and those in authority got the people to make request for Barabbas, and for Jesus to be put to death.

So when Pilate saw that he was able to do nothing, but that trouble was working up, he took water and, washing his hands before the people, said, The blood of this upright man is not on my hands: you are responsible.

And all the people made answer and said, Let his blood be on us, and on our children.

And coming out of their resting-places, after he had come again from the dead, they went into the holy town and were seen by a number of people.

Give orders, then, that the place where his body is may be made safe till the third day, for fear that his disciples come and take him away secretly and say to the people, He has come back from the dead: and the last error will be worse than the first.
