Noun oudeis (no one, nothing, none) in the Gospels-Acts

(Translation from NRSV with a few modifications for a more literal meaning)

6: 24"No one (oudeis) can serve two masters; for a slave will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.
8: 10When Jesus heard him, he was amazed and said to those who followed him, "Truly I tell you, in no one (oudeis) in Israel have I found such faith.
9: 16No one (oudeis) sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old cloak, for the patch pulls away from the cloak, and a worse tear is made.
10: 26"So have no fear of them; for nothing (oudeis) is covered up that will not be uncovered, and is secret that will not become known.
11: 27All things have been handed over to me by my Father; and no one (oudeis) knows the Son except the Father, and knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.
13: 34Jesus told the crowds all these things in parables; without a parable he told them nothing (oudeis).
17: 8And when they looked up, they saw no one (oudeis) except Jesus himself alone.
17: 20He said to them, "Because of your little faith. For truly I tell you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing (oudeis) will be impossible for you."
20: 7They said to him, 'Because no one (oudeis) has hired us.' He said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard.'
21: 19And seeing a fig tree by the side of the road, he went to it and found nothing (oudeis) at all on it but leaves. Then he said to it, "May no fruit ever come from you again!" And the fig tree withered at once.
22: 16So they sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are sincere, and teach the way of God in accordance with truth, and show deference to no one (oudeis); for you do not regard people with partiality.
22: 46No one (oudeis) was able to give him an answer, nor from that day did anyone dare to ask him any more questions.

23: 18And you say, 'Whoever swears by the altar is bound by nothing (oudeis), but whoever swears by the gift that is on the altar is bound by the oath.'
24: 36"But about that day and hour no one (oudeis) knows, neither the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
26: 62The high priest stood up and said, "You answer nothing (oudeis)? What is it that they testify against you?"
27: 12But when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing (oudeis).
27: 24So when Pilate saw that he could do nothing (oudeis), but rather that a riot was beginning, he took some water and washed his hands before the crowd, saying, "I am innocent of this man's blood; see to it yourselves."

Mark

2: 21"No one (oudeis) sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old cloak; otherwise, the patch pulls away from it, the new from the old, and a worse tear is made.
2: 22And no one (oudeis) puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise, the wine will burst the skins, and the wine is lost, and so are the skins; but one puts new wine into fresh wineskins."
3: 27But no one (oudeis) can enter a strong man's house and plunder his property without first tying up the strong man; then indeed the house can be plundered.
5: 3He lived among the tombs; and no one (oudeis) could restrain him any more, even with a chain;
5: 4for he had often been restrained with shackles and chains, but the chains he wrenched apart, and the shackles he broke in pieces; and no one (oudeis) had the strength to subdue him.
5: 37He allowed no one (oudeis) to follow him except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.
6: 5And he could do no (oudeis) deed of power there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and cured them.
7: 12then you permit doing nothing (oudeis) for a father or mother,
7: 15there is nothing (oudeis) outside a person that by going in can defile, but the things that come out are what defile."
7: 24From there he set out and went away to the region of Tyre. He entered a house and wanted no one (oudeis) to know he was there. Yet he could not escape notice,
9: 8Suddenly when they looked around, they saw no one (oudeis) with them anymore, but only Jesus.
9: 29He said to them, "This kind can be expelled by nothing (oudeis) except prayer."
9: 39But Jesus said, "Do not stop him; for no one (oudeis) who does a deed of power in my name will be able soon afterward to speak evil of me.
10: 18Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one (oudeis) is good but God alone.
10: 29Jesus said, "Truly I tell you, there is no one (oudeis) who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields, for my sake and for the sake of the good news,

11: 13Seeing in the distance a fig tree in leaf, he went to see whether perhaps he would find anything on it. When he came to it, he found nothing (oudeis) but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.
12: 14And they came and said to him, "Teacher, we know that you are sincere, and show deference to no one (oudeis); for you do not regard people with partiality, but teach the way of God in accordance with truth. Is it lawful to pay taxes to the emperor, or not?
12: 34When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." After that no one (oudeis) dared to ask him any question.
13: 32"But about that day or hour no one (oudeis) knows, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
14: 60Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus, "You answer nothing (oudeis)? What is it that they testify against you?"
14: 61But he was silent and answered nothing (oudeis). Again the high priest asked him, "Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?"
15: 4Pilate asked him again, "You answer nothing (oudeis)? See how many charges they bring against you."
15: 5But Jesus answered nothing (oudeis) more, so that Pilate was amazed.
16: 8So they went out and fled from the tomb, for terror and amazement had seized them; and they said nothing (oudeis) to anyone (oudeis), for they were afraid. [[They told Peter's companions briefly what had been announced to them. Then Jesus himself caused them to carry the sacred and incorruptible proclamation of eternal salvation from east to west. ]]

Luke

1: 61They said to her, "No one (oudeis) of your relatives has this name."

4: 27There were also many lepers in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none (oudeis) of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian."
5: 5Simon answered, "Master, we have worked all night long but have caught nothing (oudeis). Yet if you say so, I will let down the nets."

5: 37And no one (oudeis) puts new wine into old wineskins; otherwise the new wine will burst the skins and will be spilled, and the skins will be destroyed.

8: 43Now there was a woman who had been suffering from hemorrhages for twelve years; and though she had spent all she had on physicians, no one (oudeis) could cure her.

16: 13No (oudeis) slave can serve two masters; for a slave will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth."

18: 29And he said to them, "Truly I tell you, there is no one (oudeis) who has left house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,
18: 34But they understood nothing (oudeis) about all these things; in fact, what he said was hidden from them, and they did not grasp what was said.
19: 30saying, "Go into the village ahead of you, and as you enter it you will find tied there a colt that no one (oudeis) has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here.
20: 40From then on, they questioned him on nothing (oudeis).
22: 35He said to them, "When I sent you out without a purse, bag, or sandals, did you lack anything?" They said, "Nothing (oudeis)."
23: 4Then Pilate said to the chief priests and the crowds, "I find nothing (oudeis) for an accusation against this man."
23: 9He questioned him at some length, but Jesus answered nothing (oudeis).
23: 14and said to them, "You brought me this man as one who was perverting the people; and here I have examined him in your presence and have found nothing (oudeis) in this man guilty of any of your charges against him.
23: 15Neither has Herod, for he sent him back to us. Indeed, he has done nothing (oudeis) to deserve death.
23: 22A third time he said to them, "Why, what evil has he done? I have found in him nothing (oudeis) for the sentence of death; I will therefore have him flogged and then release him."
23: 41And we indeed have been condemned justly, for we are getting what we deserve for our deeds, but this man has done nothing (oudeis) wrong."
23: 53Then he took it down, wrapped it in a linen cloth, and laid it in a rock-hewn tomb where no one (oudeis) had ever been laid.

John

1: 18No one (oudeis) has ever seen God. It is God the only Son, who is close to the Father's heart, who has made him known.
3: 2He came to Jesus by night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God; for no one (oudeis) can do these signs that you do apart from the presence of God."
3: 13No one (oudeis) has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.
3: 32He testifies to what he has seen and heard, yet no one (oudeis) accepts his testimony.
4: 27Just then his disciples came. They were astonished that he was speaking with a woman, but no one (oudeis) said, "What do you want?" or, "Why are you speaking with her?"
5: 19Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing (oudeis) on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise.
5: 22The Father judges no one (oudeis) but has given all judgment to the Son,
5: 30"I can do nothing (oudeis) on my own. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek to do not my own will but the will of him who sent me.
6: 44No one (oudeis) can come to me unless drawn by the Father who sent me; and I will raise that person up on the last day.
6: 63It is the spirit that gives life; the flesh is worth nothing (oudeis). The words that I have spoken to you are spirit and life.
6: 65And he said, "For this reason I have told you that no one (oudeis) can come to me unless it is granted by the Father."
7: 4for no one (oudeis) who wants to be widely known acts in secret. If you do these things, show yourself to the world."
7: 13Yet no one (oudeis) would speak openly about him for fear of the Jews.
7: 19"Did not Moses give you the law? Yet none (oudeis) of you keeps the law. Why are you looking for an opportunity to kill me?"
7: 26And here he is, speaking openly, but they say nothing (oudeis) to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that this is the Messiah?
7: 27Yet we know where this man is from; but when the Messiah comes, no one (oudeis) will know where he is from."
7: 30Then they tried to arrest him, but no one (oudeis) laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come.
7: 44Some of them wanted to arrest him, but no one (oudeis) laid hands on him.
8: 10Jesus straightened up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one (oudeis) condemned you?"
8: 11She said, "No one (oudeis), sir." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again."]]
8: 15You judge by human standards; I judge no one (oudeis).
8: 20He spoke these words while he was teaching in the treasury of the temple, but no one (oudeis) arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
8: 28So Jesus said, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will realize that I am he, and that I do nothing (oudeis) on my own, but I speak these things as the Father instructed me.
8: 33They answered him, "We are descendants of Abraham and have been slaves to no one (oudeis). What do you mean by saying, 'You will be made free'?"
8: 54Jesus answered, "If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing (oudeis). It is my Father who glorifies me, he of whom you say, 'He is our God,'
9: 4We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming when no one (oudeis) can work.
9: 33If this man were not from God, he could do nothing (oudeis)."
10: 18No one (oudeis) takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it up again. I have received this command from my Father."
10: 29What my Father has given me is greater than all else, and no one (oudeis) can snatch it out of the Father's hand.
10: 41Many came to him, and they were saying, "John performed no (oudeis) sign, but everything that John said about this man was true."
11: 49But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, "You know nothing (oudeis) at all!
12: 19The Pharisees then said to one another, "You see, you can do nothing (oudeis). Look, the world has gone after him!"
13: 28Now no one (oudeis) at the table knew why he said this to him.
14: 6Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one (oudeis) comes to the Father except through me.
14: 30I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no (oudeis) power over me;
15: 5I am the vine, you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing (oudeis).
15: 13No one (oudeis) has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends.
15: 24If I had not done among them the works that no one (oudeis) else did, they would not have sin. But now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.
16: 5But now I am going to him who sent me; yet none (oudeis) of you asks me, 'Where are you going?'
16: 22So you have pain now; but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one (oudeis) will take your joy from you.
16: 23On that day you will ask nothing (oudeis) of me. Very truly, I tell you, if you ask anything of the Father in my name, he will give it to you.
16: 24Until now you have asked nothing (oudeis) in my name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
16: 29His disciples said, "Yes, now you are speaking plainly, and you say nothing (oudeis) in figure of speech!
17: 12While I was with them, I protected them in your name that you have given me. I guarded them, and no one (oudeis) of them was lost except the one destined to be lost, so that the scripture might be fulfilled.
18: 9This was to fulfill the word that he had spoken, "I lost no one (oudeis) of those whom you gave me."
18: 20Jesus answered, "I have spoken openly to the world; I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all the Jews come together. I have said nothing (oudeis) in secret.
18: 31Pilate said to them, "Take him yourselves and judge him according to your law." The Jews replied, "We are permitted to put no one (oudeis) to death."
18: 38Pilate asked him, "What is truth?" After he had said this, he went out to the Jews again and told them, "I find no (oudeis) case against him.
19: 4Pilate went out again and said to them, "Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no (oudeis) case against him."
19: 11Jesus answered him, "You would have no (oudeis) power over me unless it had been given you from above; therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin."
19: 41Now there was a garden in the place where he was crucified, and in the garden there was a new tomb in which no one (oudeis) had ever been laid.
21: 3Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We will go with you." They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing (oudeis).
21: 12Jesus said to them, "Come and have breakfast." Now none (oudeis) of the disciples dared to ask him, "Who are you?" because they knew it was the Lord.

Acts

4: 12There is salvation in no one (oudeis) else, for there is no other name under heaven given among mortals by which we must be saved."
4: 14When they saw the man who had been cured standing beside them, they had nothing (oudeis) to say in opposition.

8: 16(for as yet the Spirit had come upon no one (oudeis) of them; they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus).
9: 8Saul got up from the ground, and though his eyes were open, he could see nothing (oudeis); so they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus.
15: 9and in cleansing their hearts by faith he has made no (oudeis) distinction between them and us.
17: 21Now all the Athenians and the foreigners living there would spend their time in nothing (oudeis) but telling or hearing something new.
18: 10for I am with you, and no one (oudeis) will lay a hand on you to harm you, for there are many in this city who are my people."
18: 17Then all of them seized Sosthenes, the official of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio paid no (oudeis) attention to any of these things.
19: 27And there is danger not only that this trade of ours may come into disrepute but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted for nothing (oudeis), and she will be deprived of her majesty that brought all Asia and the world to worship her."
20: 20Not only does this risk bringing our profession into disrepute, but it will also make the very sanctuary of the great goddess Artemis count for nothing (oudeis), and ultimately rob the goddess revered throughout Asia and the world of her prestige.
20: 24But I place no (oudeis) value on my own life, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the good news of God's grace.
20: 33I coveted no one (oudeis)'s silver or gold or clothing.
21: 24Join these men, go through the rite of purification with them, and pay for the shaving of their heads. Thus all will know that there is nothing (oudeis) in what they have been told about you, but that you yourself observe and guard the law.
23: 9Then a great clamor arose, and certain scribes of the Pharisees' group stood up and contended, "We find nothing (oudeis) wrong with this man. What if a spirit or an angel has spoken to him?"
25: 10Paul said, "I am appealing to the emperor's tribunal; this is where I should be tried. I have done nothing (oudeis) wrong to the Jews, as you very well know.
25: 11Now if I am in the wrong and have committed something for which I deserve to die, I am not trying to escape death; but if there is nothing (oudeis) to their charges against me, no one (oudeis) can turn me over to them. I appeal to the emperor."
25: 18When the accusers stood up, they charged him nothing (oudeis) of the crimes that I was expecting.
26: 22To this day I have had help from God, and so I stand here, testifying to both small and great, saying nothing (oudeis) but what the prophets and Moses said would take place:

26: 31and as they were leaving, they said to one another, "This man is doing nothing (oudeis) to deserve death or imprisonment."
27: 22I urge you now to keep up your courage, for there will be no (oudeis) loss of life among you, but only of the ship.
27: 34Therefore I urge you to take some food, for it will help you survive; for none (oudeis) of you will lose a hair from your heads."
28: 5He, however, shook off the creature into the fire and suffered no (oudeis) harm.
28: 17Three days later he called together the local leaders of the Jews. When they had assembled, he said to them, "Brothers, though I had done nothing (oudeis) against our people or the customs of our ancestors, yet I was arrested in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans.
