Matthew
| 1: 22 | All this took place to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet (prophētēs): |
| 2: 5 | They told him, "In Bethlehem of Judea; for so it has been written by the prophet (prophētēs): |
| 2: 15 | and remained there until the death of Herod. This was to fulfill what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet (prophētēs), "Out of Egypt I have called my son." |
| 2: 17 | Then was fulfilled what had been spoken through the prophet (prophētēs) Jeremiah: |
| 2: 23 | There he made his home in a town called Nazareth, so that what had been spoken through the prophets (prophētēs) might be fulfilled, "He will be called a Nazorean." |
| 3: 3 | This is the one of whom the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah spoke when he said, "The voice of one crying out in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.'" |
| 4: 14 | so that what had been spoken through the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah might be fulfilled: |
| 5: 12 | Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets (prophētēs) who were before you. |
| 5: 17 | "Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets (prophētēs); I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. |
| 7: 12 | "In everything do to others as you would have them do to you; for this is the law and the prophets (prophētēs). |
| 8: 17 | This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah, "He took our infirmities and bore our diseases." |
| 10: 41 | Whoever welcomes a prophet (prophētēs) in the name of a prophet (prophētēs) will receive a prophet (prophētēs)'s reward; and whoever welcomes a righteous person in the name of a righteous person will receive the reward of the righteous; |
| 11: 9 | What then did you go out to see? A prophet (prophētēs)? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet (prophētēs). |
| 11: 13 | For all the prophets (prophētēs) and the law prophesied until John came; |
| 12: 17 | This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah: |
| 12: 39 | But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation asks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet (prophētēs) Jonah. |
| 13: 17 | Truly I tell you, many prophets (prophētēs) and righteous people longed to see what you see, but did not see it, and to hear what you hear, but did not hear it. |
| 13: 35 | This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet (prophētēs): "I will open my mouth to speak in parables; I will proclaim what has been hidden from the foundation of the world." |
| 13: 57 | And they took offense at him. But Jesus said to them, "Prophets (prophētēs) are not without honor except in their own country and in their own house." |
| 14: 5 | Though Herod wanted to put him to death, he feared the crowd, because they regarded him as a prophet (prophētēs). |
| 16: 14 | And they said, "Some say John the Baptist, but others Elijah, and still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets (prophētēs)." |
| 21: 4 | This took place to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet (prophētēs), saying, |
| 21: 11 | The crowds were saying, "This is the prophet (prophētēs) Jesus from Nazareth in Galilee." |
| 21: 26 | But if we say, 'Of human origin,' we are afraid of the crowd; for all regard John as a prophet (prophētēs)." |
| 21: 46 | They wanted to arrest him, but they feared the crowds, because they regarded him as a prophet (prophētēs). |
| 22: 40 | On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets (prophētēs)." |
| 23: 29 | "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets (prophētēs) and decorate the graves of the righteous, |
| 23: 30 | and you say, 'If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets (prophētēs).' |
| 23: 31 | Thus you testify against yourselves that you are descendants of those who murdered the prophets (prophētēs). |
| 23: 34 | Therefore I send you prophets (prophētēs), sages, and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will flog in your synagogues and pursue from town to town, |
| 23: 37 | "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets (prophētēs) and stones those who are sent to it! How often have I desired to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing! |

Mark
| 1: 2 | As it is written in the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah, "See, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way; |
| 6: 4 | Then Jesus said to them, "Prophets (prophētēs) are not without honor, except in their hometown, and among their own kin, and in their own house." |
| 6: 15 | But others said, "It is Elijah." And others said, "It is a prophet (prophētēs), like one of the prophets (prophētēs) of old." |
| 8: 28 | And they answered him, "John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets (prophētēs)." |
| 11: 32 | But shall we say, 'Of human origin'?" - they were afraid of the crowd, for all regarded John as truly a prophet (prophētēs). |
Luke
| 1: 70 | as he spoke through the mouth of his holy prophets (prophētēs) from of old, |
| 1: 76 | And you, child, will be called the prophet (prophētēs) of the Most High; for you will go before the Lord to prepare his ways, |
| 3: 4 | as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah, "The voice of one crying out in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. |
| 4: 17 | and the scroll of the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written: |
| 4: 24 | And he said, "Truly I tell you, no prophet (prophētēs) is accepted in his hometown. |
| 4: 27 | There were also many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet (prophētēs) Elisha, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian." |
| 6: 23 | Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets (prophētēs). |
| 7: 16 | Fear seized all of them; and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet (prophētēs) has risen among us!" and "God has looked favorably on his people!" |
| 7: 26 | What then did you go out to see? A prophet (prophētēs)? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet (prophētēs). |
| 7: 39 | Now when the Pharisee who had invited him saw it, he said to himself, "If this man were a prophet (prophētēs), he would have known who and what kind of woman this is who is touching him - that she is a sinner." |
| 9: 8 | by some that Elijah had appeared, and by others that one of the ancient prophets (prophētēs) had arisen. |
| 9: 19 | They answered, "John the Baptist; but others, Elijah; and still others, that one of the ancient prophets (prophētēs) has arisen." |
| 10: 24 | For I tell you that many prophets (prophētēs) and kings desired to see what you see, but did not see it, and to hear what you hear, but did not hear it." |
| 11: 47 | Woe to you! For you build the tombs of the prophets (prophētēs) whom your ancestors killed. |
| 11: 49 | Therefore also the Wisdom of God said, 'I will send them prophets (prophētēs) and apostles, some of whom they will kill and persecute,' |
| 11: 50 | so that this generation may be charged with the blood of all the prophets (prophētēs) shed since the foundation of the world, |
| 13: 28 | There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets (prophētēs) in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrown out. |
| 13: 33 | Yet today, tomorrow, and the next day I must be on my way, because it is impossible for a prophet (prophētēs) to be killed outside of Jerusalem.' |
| 13: 34 | Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets (prophētēs) and stones those who are sent to it! How often have I desired to gather your children together as a hen gathers her brood under her wings, and you were not willing! |
| 16: 16 | "The law and the prophets (prophētēs) were in effect until John came; since then the good news of the kingdom of God is proclaimed, and everyone tries to enter it by force. |
| 16: 29 | Abraham replied, 'They have Moses and the prophets (prophētēs); they should listen to them.' |
| 16: 31 | He said to him, 'If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets (prophētēs), neither will they be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.'" |
| 18: 31 | Then he took the twelve aside and said to them, "See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written about the Son of Man by the prophets (prophētēs) will be accomplished. |
| 20: 6 | But if we say, 'Of human origin,' all the people will stone us; for they are convinced that John was a prophet (prophētēs)." |
| 24: 19 | He asked them, "What things?" They replied, "The things about Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet (prophētēs) mighty in deed and word before God and all the people, |
| 24: 25 | Then he said to them, "Oh, how foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets (prophētēs) have declared! |
| 24: 27 | Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets (prophētēs), he interpreted to them the things about himself in all the scriptures. |
| 24: 44 | Then he said to them, "These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you - that everything written about me in the law of Moses, the prophets (prophētēs), and the psalms must be fulfilled." |
John
| 1: 21 | And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" He said, "I am not." "Are you the prophet (prophētēs)?" He answered, "No." |
| 1: 23 | He said, "I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,'" as the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah said. |
| 1: 25 | They asked him, "Why then are you baptizing if you are neither the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the prophet (prophētēs)?" |
| 1: 45 | Philip found Nathanael and said to him, "We have found him about whom Moses in the law and also the prophets (prophētēs) wrote, Jesus son of Joseph from Nazareth." |
| 4: 19 | The woman said to him, "Sir, I see that you are a prophet (prophētēs). |
| 4: 44 | (for Jesus himself had testified that a prophet (prophētēs) has no honor in his own country). |
| 6: 14 | When the people saw the sign that he had done, they began to say, "This is indeed the prophet (prophētēs) who is to come into the world." |
| 6: 45 | It is written in the prophets (prophētēs), 'And they shall all be taught by God.' Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to me. |
| 7: 40 | When they heard these words, some in the crowd said, "This is really the prophet (prophētēs)." |
| 7: 52 | They replied, "Surely you are not also from Galilee, are you? Search and you will see that no prophet (prophētēs) is to arise from Galilee." |
| 8: 52 | The Jews said to him, "Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and so did the prophets (prophētēs); yet you say, 'Whoever keeps my word will never taste death.' |
| 8: 53 | Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets (prophētēs) also died. Who do you claim to be?" |
| 9: 17 | So they said again to the blind man, "What do you say about him? It was your eyes he opened." He said, "He is a prophet (prophētēs)." |
| 12: 38 | This was to fulfill the word spoken by the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah: "Lord, who has believed our message, and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?" |
Acts
| 2: 16 | No, this is what was spoken through the prophet (prophētēs) Joel: |
| 2: 30 | Since he was a prophet (prophētēs), he knew that God had sworn with an oath to him that he would put one of his descendants on his throne. |
| 3: 18 | In this way God fulfilled what he had foretold through all the prophets (prophētēs), that his Messiah would suffer. |
| 3: 21 | who must remain in heaven until the time of universal restoration that God announced long ago through his holy prophets (prophētēs). |
| 3: 22 | Moses said, 'The Lord your God will raise up for you from your own people a prophet (prophētēs) like me. You must listen to whatever he tells you. |
| 3: 23 | And it will be that everyone who does not listen to that prophet (prophētēs) will be utterly rooted out of the people.' |
| 3: 24 | And all the prophets (prophētēs), as many as have spoken, from Samuel and those after him, also predicted these days. |
| 3: 25 | You are the descendants of the prophets (prophētēs) and of the covenant that God gave to your ancestors, saying to Abraham, 'And in your descendants all the families of the earth shall be blessed.' |
| 7: 37 | This is the Moses who said to the Israelites, 'God will raise up a prophet (prophētēs) for you from your own people as he raised me up.' |
| 7: 42 | But God turned away from them and handed them over to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets (prophētēs): 'Did you offer to me slain victims and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel? |
| 7: 48 | Yet the Most High does not dwell in houses made with human hands; as the prophet (prophētēs) says, |
| 7: 52 | Which of the prophets (prophētēs) did your ancestors not persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, and now you have become his betrayers and murderers. |
| 8: 28 | and was returning home; seated in his chariot, he was reading the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah. |
| 8: 30 | So Philip ran up to it and heard him reading the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah. He asked, "Do you understand what you are reading?" |
| 8: 34 | The eunuch asked Philip, "About whom, may I ask you, does the prophet (prophētēs) say this, about himself or about someone else?" |
| 10: 43 | All the prophets (prophētēs) testify about him that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name." |
| 11: 27 | At that time prophets (prophētēs) came down from Jerusalem to Antioch. |
| 13: 1 | Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets (prophētēs) and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen a member of the court of Herod the ruler, and Saul. |
| 13: 15 | After the reading of the law and the prophets (prophētēs), the officials of the synagogue sent them a message, saying, "Brothers, if you have any word of exhortation for the people, give it." |
| 13: 20 | for about four hundred fifty years. After that he gave them judges until the time of the prophet (prophētēs) Samuel. |
| 13: 27 | Because the residents of Jerusalem and their leaders did not recognize him or understand the words of the prophets (prophētēs) that are read every sabbath, they fulfilled those words by condemning him. |
| 13: 40 | Beware, therefore, that what the prophets (prophētēs) said does not happen to you: |
| 15: 15 | This agrees with the words of the prophets (prophētēs), as it is written, |
| 15: 32 | Judas and Silas, who were themselves prophets (prophētēs), said much to encourage and strengthen the believers. |
| 21: 10 | While we were staying there for several days, a prophet (prophētēs) named Agabus came down from Judea. |
| 24: 14 | But this I admit to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, I worship the God of our ancestors, believing everything laid down according to the law or written in the prophets (prophētēs). |
| 26: 22 | To this day I have had help from God, and so I stand here, testifying to both small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets (prophētēs) and Moses said would take place: |
| 26: 27 | King Agrippa, do you believe the prophets (prophētēs)? I know that you believe." |
| 28: 23 | After they had set a day to meet with him, they came to him at his lodgings in great numbers. From morning until evening he explained the matter to them, testifying to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus both from the law of Moses and from the prophets (prophētēs). |
| 28: 25 | So they disagreed with each other; and as they were leaving, Paul made one further statement: "The Holy Spirit was right in saying to your ancestors through the prophet (prophētēs) Isaiah, |
