Verb poieō (to do, make) in the Gospels-Acts

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


Matthew

1: 24When Joseph awoke from sleep, he did (poieō) as the angel of the Lord commanded him; he took her as his wife,
3: 3This is the one of whom the prophet Isaiah spoke when he said, "The voice of one crying out in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make (poieō) his paths straight.'"
3: 8Make (poieō) fruit worthy of repentance.
3: 10Even now the ax is lying at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that does not make (poieō) good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
4: 19And he said to them, "Follow me, and I will make (poieō) you fish for people."
5: 19Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches it to men, will be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does (poieō) them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
5: 32But I say to you that anyone who divorces his wife, except on the ground of unchastity, makes (poieō) her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
5: 36And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make (poieō) one hair white or black.
5: 46For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do (poieō) the same?
5: 47And if you greet only your brothers and sisters, what more are you doing (poieō) than others? Do not even the Gentiles do (poieō) the same?
6: 1"Beware of doing (poieō) your piety before others in order to be seen by them; for then you have no reward from your Father in heaven.
6: 2"So whenever you do (poieō) alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do (poieō) in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be praised by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
6: 3But when you do (poieō) alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing (poieō),
7: 12"In everything do (poieō) to others as you would have them do (poieō) to you; for this is the law and the prophets.
7: 17In the same way, every good tree makes (poieō) good fruit, but the bad tree makes (poieō) bad fruit.
7: 18A good tree cannot make (poieō) bad fruit, nor can a bad tree make (poieō) good fruit.
7: 19Every tree that does not make (poieō) good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
7: 21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does (poieō) the will of my Father in heaven.
7: 22On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do (poieō) many deeds of power in your name?'
7: 24"Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does (poieō) them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.
7: 26And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do (poieō) them will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand.
8: 9For I also am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes, and to another, 'Come,' and he comes, and to my slave, 'Do (poieō) this,' and the slave does (poieō) it."
9: 28When he entered the house, the blind men came to him; and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do (poieō) this?" They said to him, "Yes, Lord."
12: 2When the Pharisees saw it, they said to him, "Look, your disciples are doing (poieō) what is not lawful to do (poieō) on the sabbath."
12: 3He said to them, "Have you not read what David did (poieō) when he and his companions were hungry?
12: 12How much more valuable is a human being than a sheep! So it is lawful to do (poieō) good on the sabbath."
12: 16and he ordered them not to make (poieō) him known.
12: 33"Either make (poieō) the tree good, and its fruit good; or make (poieō) the tree bad, and its fruit bad; for the tree is known by its fruit.
12: 50For whoever does (poieō) the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother."
13: 23But as for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed makes (poieō) fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty."
13: 26So when the plants came up and made (poieō) grain, then the weeds appeared as well.
13: 28He answered, 'An enemy has done (poieō) this.' The slaves said to him, 'Then do you want us to go and gather them?'
13: 41The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will collect out of his kingdom all causes of sin and those doing (poieō) evil,
13: 58And he did not do (poieō) many deeds of power there, because of their unbelief.
17: 4Then Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you wish, I will make (poieō) three dwellings here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
17: 12but I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him, but they did (poieō) to him whatever they pleased. So also the Son of Man is about to suffer at their hands."
18: 35So my heavenly Father will also do (poieō) to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother or sister from your heart."
19: 4He answered, "Have you not read that the Creator at the beginning 'made (poieō) them male and female,'
19: 16Then someone came to him and said, "Teacher, what good deed must I do (poieō) to have eternal life?"
20: 5When he went out again about noon and about three o'clock, he did (poieō) the same.
20: 12saying, 'These last made (poieō) only one hour, and you have made (poieō) them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.'
20: 15Am I not allowed to do (poieō) what I choose with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?'
20: 32Jesus stood still and called them, saying, "What do you want me to do (poieō) for you?"
21: 6The disciples went and did (poieō) as Jesus had directed them;
21: 13He said to them, "It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer'; but you are making (poieō) it a den of robbers."
21: 15But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the amazing things that he did (poieō), and heard the children crying out in the temple, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they became angry
21: 21Jesus answered them, "Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do (poieō) that to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' it will be happen.
21: 23When he entered the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching, and said, "By what authority are you doing (poieō) these things, and who gave you this authority?"
21: 24Jesus said to them, "I will also ask you one question; if you tell me the answer, then I will also tell you by what authority I do (poieō) these things.
21: 27So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And he said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing (poieō) these things.
21: 31Which of the two did (poieō) the will of his father?" They said, "The first." Jesus said to them, "Truly I tell you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.
21: 36Again he sent other slaves, more than the first; and they did (poieō) the same thing.
21: 40Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do (poieō) to those tenants?"
21: 43Therefore I tell you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people that makes (poieō) the fruits of the kingdom.
22: 2"The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who did (poieō) a wedding banquet for his son.
23: 3therefore, do (poieō) whatever they teach you and follow it; but do not do (poieō) according to their works, for they do not do (poieō) what they teach.
23: 5They do (poieō) all their deeds to be seen by others; for they broaden their phylacteries and enlarge their fringes.
23: 15Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cross sea and land to make (poieō) a single convert, and you make (poieō) the new convert twice as much a child of hell as yourselves.
23: 23"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint, dill, and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. It is these you ought to have done (poieō) without neglecting the others.
24: 46Blessed is that slave whom his master will find doing (poieō) that when he arrives.
25: 40And the king will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did (poieō) it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did (poieō) it to me.'
25: 45Then he will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did not do (poieō) it to one of the least of these, you did not do (poieō) it to me.'
26: 12By pouring this ointment on my body she did (poieō) it for my burial.
26: 13Truly I tell you, wherever this good news is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done (poieō) will be told in remembrance of her."
26: 18He said, "Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, 'The Teacher says, My time is near; I will do (poieō) the Passover at your house with my disciples.'"
26: 19So the disciples did (poieō) as Jesus had directed them, and they prepared the Passover meal.
26: 73After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, "Certainly you are also one of them, for your accent made (poieō) it obvious."
27: 22Pilate said to them, "Then what should I do (poieō) with Jesus who is called the Messiah?" All of them said, "Let him be crucified!"
27: 23Then he asked, "Why, what evil has he done (poieō)?" But they shouted all the more, "Let him be crucified!"
28: 14If this comes to the governor's ears, we will satisfy him and make (poieō) you without trouble."
28: 15So they took the money and did (poieō) as they were directed. And this story is still told among the Jews to this day.

Mark

1: 3the voice of one crying out in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make (poieō) his paths straight,'"
1: 17And Jesus said to them, "Follow me and I will make (poieō) you fish for people."
2: 23One sabbath he was going through the grainfields; and as they made (poieō) their way his disciples began to pluck heads of grain.
2: 24The Pharisees said to him, "Look, why are they doing (poieō) what is not lawful on the sabbath?"
2: 25And he said to them, "Have you never read what David did (poieō) when he and his companions were hungry and in need of food?
3: 4Then he said to them, "Is it lawful to do (poieō) good or harm on the sabbath, to save life or to kill?" But they were silent.
3: 8hearing all that he was doing (poieō), they came to him in great numbers from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, beyond the Jordan, and the region around Tyre and Sidon.
3: 12But he sternly ordered them not to make (poieō) him known.
3: 14And he made (poieō) twelve, whom he also named apostles, to be with him, and to be sent out to proclaim the message,
3: 16So he made (poieō) the twelve: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter);
3: 35Whoever does (poieō) the will of God is my brother and sister and mother."
4: 32yet when it is sown it grows up and becomes the greatest of all shrubs, and makes (poieō) large branches, so that the birds of the air can nest in its shade."
5: 19But Jesus refused, and said to him, "Go home to your friends, and tell them how much the Lord has done (poieō) for you, and what mercy he has shown you."
5: 20And he went away and began to proclaim in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done (poieō) for him; and everyone was amazed.
5: 32He looked all around to see who had done (poieō) it.
6: 5And he could do (poieō) no deed of power there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and cured them.
6: 21But an opportunity came when Herod on his birthday did (poieō) a banquet for his courtiers and officers and for the leaders of Galilee.
6: 30The apostles gathered around Jesus, and told him all that they had done (poieō) and taught.
7: 12then you no longer permit doing (poieō) anything for a father or mother,
7: 13thus undoing the word of God through your tradition that you have handed on. And you do (poieō) many things like this."
7: 37They were astounded beyond measure, saying, "He has done (poieō) everything well; he even makes (poieō) the deaf to hear and the mute to speak."
9: 5Then Peter said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; let us make (poieō) three dwellings, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
9: 13But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they did (poieō) to him whatever they pleased, as it is written about him."
9: 39But Jesus said, "Do not stop him; for no one who does (poieō) a deed of power in my name will be able soon afterward to speak evil of me.
10: 6But from the beginning of creation, 'God made (poieō) them male and female.'
10: 17As he was setting out on a journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do (poieō) to inherit eternal life?"
10: 35James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came forward to him and said to him, "Teacher, we want you to do (poieō) for us whatever we ask of you."
10: 36And he said to them, "What is it you want me to do (poieō) for you?"
10: 51Then Jesus said to him, "What do you want me to do (poieō) for you?" The blind man said to him, "My teacher, let me see again."
11: 3If anyone says to you, 'Why are you doing (poieō) this?' just say this, 'The Lord needs it and will send it back here immediately.'"
11: 5some of the bystanders said to them, "What are you doing (poieō), untying the colt?"
11: 17He was teaching and saying, "Is it not written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations'? But you have made (poieō) it a den of robbers."
11: 28and said, "By what authority are you doing (poieō) these things? Who gave you this authority to do (poieō) them?"
11: 29Jesus said to them, "I will ask you one question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do (poieō) these things.
11: 33So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing (poieō) these things."
12: 9What then will the owner of the vineyard do (poieō)? He will come and destroy the tenants and give the vineyard to others.
14: 7For you always have the poor with you, and you can do (poieō) good to them whenever you wish; but you will not always have me.
14: 8She has done (poieō) what she could; she has anointed my body beforehand for its burial.
14: 9Truly I tell you, wherever the good news is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done (poieō) will be told in remembrance of her."
15: 1As soon as it was morning, the chief priests did (poieō) a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council. They bound Jesus, led him away, and handed him over to Pilate.
15: 7Now a man called Barabbas was in prison with the rebels who did (poieō) a murder during the insurrection.
15: 8So the crowd came and began to ask Pilate to do (poieō) for them according to his custom.
15: 12Pilate spoke to them again, "Then what do you wish me to do (poieō) with the man you call the King of the Jews?"
15: 14Pilate asked them, "Why, what evil has he done (poieō)?" But they shouted all the more, "Crucify him!"
15: 15So Pilate, wishing to make (poieō) the crowd satisfied, released Barabbas for them; and after flogging Jesus, he handed him over to be crucified.

Luke

1: 25"This is what the Lord has done (poieō) for me when he looked favorably on me and took away the disgrace I have endured among my people."
1: 49for the Mighty One has done (poieō) great things for me, and holy is his name.
1: 51He made (poieō) strength with his arm; he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
1: 68"Blessed be the Lord God of Israel, for he has looked favorably on his people and made (poieō) redemption for them.
1: 72Thus he did (poieō) mercy promised to our ancestors, and has remembered his holy covenant,
2: 27Guided by the Spirit, Simeon came into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do (poieō) for him what was customary under the law,
2: 48When his parents saw him they were astonished; and his mother said to him, "Child, why have done (poieō) us like this? Look, your father and I have been searching for you in great anxiety."
3: 4as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah, "The voice of one crying out in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make (poieō) his paths straight.
3: 8Bear fruits worthy of repentance. Do (poieō) not begin to say to yourselves, 'We have Abraham as our ancestor'; for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children to Abraham.
3: 9Even now the ax is lying at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that does (poieō) not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."
3: 10And the crowds asked him, "What then should we do (poieō)?"
3: 11In reply he said to them, "Whoever has two coats must share with anyone who has none; and whoever has food must do (poieō) likewise."
3: 12Even tax collectors came to be baptized, and they asked him, "Teacher, what should we do (poieō)?"
3: 14Soldiers also asked him, "And we, what should we do (poieō)?" He said to them, "Do not extort money from anyone by threats or false accusation, and be satisfied with your wages."
3: 19But Herod the ruler, who had been rebuked by him because of Herodias, his brother's wife, and because of all the evil things that Herod had done (poieō),
4: 23He said to them, "Doubtless you will quote to me this proverb, 'Doctor, cure yourself!' And you will say, 'Do (poieō) here also in your hometown the things that we have heard happening at Capernaum.'"
5: 6When they had done (poieō) this, they caught so many fish that their nets were beginning to break.
5: 29Then Levi did (poieō) a great banquet for him in his house; and there was a large crowd of tax collectors and others sitting at the table with them.
5: 33Then they said to him, "John's disciples, like the disciples of the Pharisees, frequently fast and make (poieō) prayers, but your disciples eat and drink."
5: 34Jesus said to them, "You cannot make (poieō) wedding guests fast while the bridegroom is with them, can you?
6: 2But some of the Pharisees said, "Why are you doing (poieō) what is not lawful on the sabbath?"
6: 3Jesus answered, "Have you not read what David did (poieō) when he and his companions were hungry?
6: 10After looking around at all of them, he said to him, "Stretch out your hand." He did (poieō) so, and his hand was restored.
6: 11But they were filled with fury and discussed with one another what they might do (poieō) to Jesus.
6: 23Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did (poieō) to the prophets.
6: 26"Woe to you when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did (poieō) to the false prophets.
6: 27"But I say to you that listen, Love your enemies, do (poieō) good to those who hate you,
6: 31Do (poieō) to others as you would have them do (poieō) to you.
6: 33If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do (poieō) the same.
6: 43"No good tree makes (poieō) bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree make (poieō) good fruit;
6: 46"Why do you call me 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do (poieō) what I tell you?
6: 47I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and does (poieō) them.
6: 49But the one who hears and does not do (poieō) is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. When the river burst against it, immediately it fell, and great was the ruin of that house."
7: 8For I also am a man set under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to one, 'Go,' and he goes, and to another, 'Come,' and he comes, and to my slave, 'Do (poieō) this,' and the slave does (poieō) it."
8: 8Some fell into good soil, and when it grew, it made (poieō) fruit a hundredfold." As he said this, he called out, "Let anyone with ears to hear listen!"
8: 21But he said to them, "My mother and my brothers are those who hear the word of God and do (poieō) it."
8: 39"Return to your home, and declare how much God has done (poieō) for you." So he went away, proclaiming throughout the city how much Jesus had done (poieō) for him.
9: 10On their return the apostles told Jesus all they had done (poieō). He took them with him and withdrew privately to a city called Bethsaida.
9: 15They did (poieō) so and had them all sit down.
9: 33Just as they were leaving him, Peter said to Jesus, "Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make (poieō) three dwellings, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah" - not knowing what he said.
9: 43And all were astounded at the greatness of God. While everyone was amazed at all that he was doing (poieō), he said to his disciples,
10: 25Just then a lawyer stood up to test Jesus. "Teacher," he said, "what must I do (poieō) to inherit eternal life?"
10: 28And he said to him, "You have given the right answer; do (poieō) this, and you will live."
10: 37He said, "The one who did (poieō) him mercy." Jesus said to him, "Go and do (poieō) likewise."
11: 40You fools! Did not the one who made (poieō) the outside make (poieō) the inside also?
11: 42"But woe to you Pharisees! For you tithe mint and rue and herbs of all kinds, and neglect justice and the love of God; it is these you ought to have done (poieō), without neglecting the others.
12: 4"I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body, and after that can do (poieō) nothing more.
12: 17And he thought to himself, 'What should I do (poieō), for I have no place to store my crops?'
12: 18Then he said, 'I will do (poieō) this: I will pull down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.
12: 33Sell your possessions, and give alms. Make (poieō) purses for yourselves that do not wear out, an unfailing treasure in heaven, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.
12: 43Blessed is that slave whom his master will find doing (poieō) this when he arrives.
12: 47That slave who knew what his master wanted, but did not prepare himself or do (poieō) what was wanted, will receive a severe beating.
12: 48But the one who did not know and did (poieō) what deserved a beating will receive a light beating. From everyone to whom much has been given, much will be required; and from the one to whom much has been entrusted, even more will be demanded.
13: 9If it makes (poieō) fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.'"
13: 22Jesus went through one town and village after another, teaching as he made (poieō) his way to Jerusalem.
14: 12He said also to the one who had invited him, "When you do (poieō) a luncheon or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or rich neighbors, in case they may invite you in return, and you would be repaid.
14: 13But when you do (poieō) a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, and the blind.
14: 16Then Jesus said to him, "Someone did (poieō) a great dinner and invited many.
15: 19I am no longer worthy to be called your son; do (poieō) to me like one of your hired hands."'
16: 3Then the manager said to himself, 'What will I do (poieō), now that my master is taking the position away from me? I am not strong enough to dig, and I am ashamed to beg.
16: 4I have decided what to do (poieō) so that, when I am dismissed as manager, people may welcome me into their homes.'
16: 8And his master commended the dishonest manager because he did (poieō) shrewdly; for the children of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own generation than are the children of light.
16: 9And I tell you, make (poieō) friends for yourselves by means of dishonest wealth so that when it is gone, they may welcome you into the eternal homes.
17: 9Do you thank the slave for doing (poieō) what was commanded?
17: 10So you also, when you have done (poieō) all that you were ordered, say, 'We are worthless slaves; we have done (poieō) only what we ought to have done (poieō)!'"
18: 7And will not God do (poieō) justice to his chosen ones who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long in helping them?
18: 8I tell you, he will quickly do (poieō) justice to them. And yet, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?"
18: 18A certain ruler asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do (poieō) to inherit eternal life?"
18: 41"What do you want me to do (poieō) for you?" He said, "Lord, let me see again."
19: 18Then the second came, saying, 'Lord, your pound has made (poieō) five pounds.'
19: 46and he said, "It is written, 'My house shall be a house of prayer'; but you have made (poieō) it a den of robbers."
19: 48but they did not find anything they could do (poieō), for all the people were spellbound by what they heard.
20: 2And said to him, "Tell us, by what authority are you doing (poieō) these things? Who is it who gave you this authority?"
20: 8Then Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing (poieō) these things."
20: 13Then the owner of the vineyard said, 'What shall I do (poieō)? I will send my beloved son; perhaps they will respect him.'
20: 15So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do (poieō) to them?
22: 19Then he took a loaf of bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body, which is given for you. Do (poieō) this in remembrance of me."
23: 22A third time he said to them, "Why, what evil has he done (poieō)? I have found in him no ground for the sentence of death; I will therefore have him flogged and then release him."
23: 31For if they do (poieō) this when the wood is green, what will happen when it is dry?"
23: 34 [[Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing (poieō)."]] And they cast lots to divide his clothing.

John

2: 5His mother said to the servants, "Do (poieō) whatever he tells you."
2: 11Jesus did (poieō) this, the first of his signs, in Cana of Galilee, and revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.
2: 15Making (poieō) a whip of cords, he drove all of them out of the temple, both the sheep and the cattle. He also poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables.
2: 16He told those who were selling the doves, "Take these things out of here! Stop making (poieō) my Father's house a marketplace!"
2: 18The Jews then said to him, "What sign can you show us for doing (poieō) this?"
2: 23When he was in Jerusalem during the Passover festival, many believed in his name because they saw the signs that he was doing (poieō).
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 can do (poieō) these signs that you do (poieō) apart from the presence of God."
3: 21But those who do (poieō) what is true come to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that their deeds have been accomplished in God."
4: 1Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard, "Jesus is making (poieō) and baptizing more disciples than John"
4: 29"Come and see a man who told me everything I have ever done (poieō)! He cannot be the Messiah, can he?"
4: 34Jesus said to them, "My food is to do (poieō) the will of him who sent me and to complete his work.
4: 39Many Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me everything I have ever done (poieō)."
4: 45When he came to Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, since they had seen all that he had done (poieō) in Jerusalem at the festival; for they too had gone to the festival.
4: 46Then he came again to Cana in Galilee where he had made (poieō) the water wine. Now there was a royal official whose son lay ill in Capernaum.
4: 54Now this was the second sign that Jesus did (poieō) after coming from Judea to Galilee.
5: 11But he answered them, "The man who made (poieō) me well said to me, 'Take up your mat and walk.'"
5: 15The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made (poieō) him well.
5: 16Therefore the Jews started persecuting Jesus, because he was doing (poieō) such things on the sabbath.
5: 18For this reason the Jews were seeking all the more to kill him, because he was not only breaking the sabbath, but was also calling God his own Father, thereby making (poieō) himself equal to God.
5: 19Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, the Son can do (poieō) nothing on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing (poieō); for whatever the Father does (poieō), the Son does (poieō) likewise.
5: 20The Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing (poieō); and he will show him greater works than these, so that you will be astonished.
5: 27and he has given him authority to do (poieō) judgment, because he is the Son of Man.
5: 29and will come out - those who have done (poieō) good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have practiced evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.
5: 30"I can do (poieō) nothing on my own. As I hear, I judge; and my judgment is just, because I seek not my own will but the will of him who sent me.
5: 36But I have a testimony greater than John's. The works that the Father has given me to complete, the very works that I am doing (poieō), testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me.
6: 2A large crowd kept following him, because they saw the signs that he was doing (poieō) for the sick.
6: 6He said this to test him, for he himself knew what he was going to do (poieō).
6: 10Jesus said, "Make (poieō) the people sit down." Now there was a great deal of grass in the place; so they sat down, about five thousand in all.
6: 14When the people saw the sign that he had done (poieō), they began to say, "This is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world."
6: 15When Jesus realized that they were about to come and take him by force to make (poieō) him king, he withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
6: 28Then they said to him, "What must we do (poieō) to perform the works of God?"
6: 30So they said to him, "What sign are you doing (poieō), so that we may see it and believe you? What work are you performing?
6: 38for I have come down from heaven, not to do (poieō) my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
7: 3So his brothers said to him, "Leave here and go to Judea so that your disciples also may see the works you are doing (poieō);
7: 4for no one who wants to be widely known does (poieō) things in secret. If you do (poieō) these things, show yourself to the world."
7: 17Anyone who resolves to do (poieō) the will of God will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own.
7: 19"Did not Moses give you the law? Yet none of you does (poieō) the law. Why are you looking for an opportunity to kill me?"
7: 21Jesus answered them, "I did (poieō) one work, and all of you are astonished.
7: 23If a man receives circumcision on the sabbath in order that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made (poieō) a man's whole body healthy on the sabbath?
7: 31Yet many in the crowd believed in him and were saying, "When the Messiah comes, will he do (poieō) more signs than this man has done (poieō)?"
7: 51"Our law does not judge people without first giving them a hearing to find out what they are doing (poieō), does it?"
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 (poieō) nothing on my own, but I speak these things as the Father instructed me.
8: 29And the one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do (poieō) what is pleasing to him."
8: 34Jesus answered them, "Very truly, I tell you, everyone who does (poieō) sin is a slave to sin.
8: 38I declare what I have seen in the Father's presence; as for you, you should do (poieō) what you have heard from the Father."
8: 39They answered him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would be doing (poieō) Abraham's works,
8: 40but now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did (poieō).
8: 41You are indeed doing (poieō) what your father's works." They said to him, "We are not illegitimate children; we have one father, God himself."
8: 44You are from your father the devil, and you choose to do (poieō) your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
8: 53Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets also died. Who do you make (poieō) of yourself?"
9: 6When he had said this, he spat on the ground and made (poieō) mud with the saliva and spread the mud on the man's eyes,
9: 11He answered, "The man called Jesus made (poieō) mud, spread it on my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to Siloam and wash.' Then I went and washed and received my sight."
9: 14Now it was a sabbath day when Jesus made (poieō) the mud and opened his eyes.
9: 16Some of the Pharisees said, "This man is not from God, for he does not observe the sabbath." But others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do (poieō) such signs?" And they were divided.
9: 26They said to him, "What did he do (poieō) to you? How did he open your eyes?"
9: 31We know that God does not listen to sinners, but he does listen to one who does (poieō) his will and obeys his will.
9: 33If this man were not from God, he could do (poieō) nothing."
10: 25Jesus answered, "I have told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do (poieō) in my Father's name testify to me;
10: 33The Jews answered, "It is not for a good work that we are going to stone you, but for blasphemy, because you, though only a human being, are making (poieō) yourself God."
10: 37If I am not doing (poieō) the works of my Father, then do not believe me.
10: 38But if I do (poieō) them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father."
10: 41Many came to him, and they were saying, "John did (poieō) no sign, but everything that John said about this man was true."
11: 37But some of them said, "Could not he, who made (poieō) the eyes of the blind man to open, have kept this man from dying?"
11: 45Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what Jesus did (poieō), believed in him.
11: 46But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what he had done (poieō).
11: 47So the chief priests and the Pharisees called a meeting of the council, and said, "What are we to do (poieō)? This man is doing (poieō) many signs.
12: 2There they did (poieō) a dinner for him. Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those at the table with him.
12: 16His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written of him and had been done (poieō) to him.
12: 18It was also because they heard that he had done (poieō) this sign that the crowd went to meet him.
12: 37Although he had done (poieō) so many signs in their presence, they did not believe in him.
13: 7Jesus answered, "You do not know now what I am doing (poieō), but later you will understand."
13: 12After he had washed their feet, had put on his robe, and had returned to the table, he said to them, "Do you know what I have done (poieō) to you?
13: 15For I have set you an example, that you also should do (poieō) as I have done (poieō) to you.
13: 17If you know these things, you are blessed if you do (poieō) them.
13: 27After he received the piece of bread, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, "Do (poieō) quickly what you are going to do (poieō)."
14: 10Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own; but the Father who dwells in me does (poieō) his works.
14: 12Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do (poieō) the works that I do (poieō) and, in fact, will do (poieō) greater works than these, because I am going to the Father.
14: 13I will do (poieō) whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14: 14If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do (poieō) it.
14: 23Jesus answered him, "Those who love me will keep my word, and my Father will love them, and we will come to them and make (poieō) our home with them.
14: 31but I do (poieō) as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us be on our way.
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 (poieō) nothing.
15: 14You are my friends if you do (poieō) what I command you.
15: 15I do not call you servants any longer, because the servant does not know what the master is doing (poieō); but I have called you friends, because I have told you you everything that I have heard from my Father.
15: 21But they will do (poieō) all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me.
15: 24If I had not done (poieō) among them the works that no one else did (poieō), they would not have sin. But now they have seen and hated both me and my Father.
16: 2They will will make (poieō) you without synagogues. Indeed, an hour is coming when those who kill you will think that they are offering worship to God.
16: 3And they will do (poieō) this because they have not known the Father or me.
17: 4I glorified you on earth by finishing the work that you gave me to do (poieō).
18: 18Now the slaves and the police had made (poieō) a charcoal fire because it was cold, and they were standing around it and warming themselves. Peter also was standing with them and warming himself.
18: 30They answered, "If this man was not doing (poieō) evil, we would not have handed him over to you."
18: 35Pilate replied, "I am not a Jew, am I? Your own nation and the chief priests have handed you over to me. What have you done (poieō)?"
19: 7The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and according to that law he ought to die because he made (poieō) himself Son of God."
19: 12From then on Pilate tried to release him, but the Jews cried out, "If you release this man, you are no friend of the emperor. Everyone who makes (poieō) himself a king sets himself against the emperor."
19: 23When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his clothes and made (poieō) them into four parts, one for each soldier. They also took his tunic; now the tunic was seamless, woven in one piece from the top.
19: 24So they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but cast lots for it to see who will get it." This was to fulfill what the scripture says, "They divided my clothes among themselves, and for my clothing they cast lots." So this is what the soldiers did (poieō).
20: 30Now Jesus did (poieō) many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book.
21: 25But there are also many other things that Jesus did (poieō); if every one of them were written down, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would be written.

Acts

1: 1I did (poieō) a first account about all, Theophilus, what Jesus did (poieō) and taught from the beginning
2: 22"You that are Israelites, listen to what I have to say: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with deeds of power, wonders, and signs that God did (poieō) through him among you, as you yourselves know -
2: 36Therefore let the entire house of Israel know with certainty that God has made (poieō) him both Lord and Messiah, this Jesus whom you crucified."
2: 37Now when they heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and to the other apostles, "Brothers, what should we do (poieō)?"
3: 12When Peter saw it, he addressed the people, "You Israelites, why do you wonder at this, or why do you stare at us, as though by our own power or piety we had made (poieō) him walk?
4: 7When the prisoners stood in their midst, they inquired, "By what power or by what name did you do (poieō) this?"
4: 16They said, "What will we do (poieō) with them? For it is obvious to all who live in Jerusalem that a notable sign has happened through them; we cannot deny it.
4: 24When they heard it, they raised their voices together to God and said, "Sovereign Lord, who made (poieō) the heaven and the earth, the sea, and everything in them,
4: 28to do (poieō) whatever your hand and your plan had predestined to take place.
5: 34But a Pharisee in the council named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, respected by all the people, stood up and ordered the men to make (poieō) them to go outside for a short time.
6: 8Stephen, full of grace and power, did (poieō) great wonders and signs among the people.
7: 19He dealt craftily with our race and made (poieō) our ancestors to abandon their infants so that they would die.
7: 24When he saw one of them being wronged, he defended the oppressed man and did (poieō) revenge by striking down the Egyptian.
7: 36He led them out, having done (poieō) wonders and signs in Egypt, at the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.
7: 40saying to Aaron, 'Make (poieō) gods for us who will lead the way for us; as for this Moses who led us out from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.'
7: 43No; you took along the tent of Moloch, and the star of your god Rephan, the images that you made (poieō) to worship; so I will remove you beyond Babylon.'
7: 44"Our ancestors had the tent of testimony in the wilderness, as God directed when he spoke to Moses, ordering him to make (poieō) it according to the pattern he had seen.
7: 50Did not my hand make (poieō) all these things?'
8: 2Devout men buried Stephen and made (poieō) loud lamentation over him.
8: 6The crowds with one accord listened eagerly to what was said by Philip, hearing and seeing the signs that he did (poieō),
9: 6But get up and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do (poieō)."
9: 13But Ananias answered, "Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how much evil he has done (poieō) to your saints in Jerusalem;
9: 36Now in Joppa there was a disciple whose name was Tabitha, which in Greek is Dorcas. She was devoted to good works and was doing (poieō) charity.
9: 39So Peter got up and went with them; and when he arrived, they took him to the room upstairs. All the widows stood beside him, weeping and showing tunics and other clothing that Dorcas had made (poieō) while she was with them.
10: 2He was a devout man who feared God with all his household; he was doing (poieō) charity generously to the people and prayed constantly to God.
10: 33Therefore I sent for you immediately, and you did (poieō) the right thing to come. So now all of us are here in the presence of God to listen to all that the Lord has commanded you to say."
10: 39We are witnesses to all that he did (poieō) both in Judea and in Jerusalem. They put him to death by hanging him on a tree;
11: 30this they did (poieō), sending it to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.
12: 8The angel said to him, "Fasten your belt and put on your sandals." He did (poieō) so. Then he said to him, "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me."
13: 22When he had removed him, he aroused David to be their king. In his testimony about him he said, 'I have found David, son of Jesse, to be a man after my heart, who will do (poieō) all my wishes.'
14: 11When the crowds saw what Paul had done (poieō), they shouted in the Lycaonian language, "The gods have come down to us in human form!"
14: 15"Friends, why are you doing (poieō) this? We are mortals just like you, and we bring you good news, that you should turn from these worthless things to the living God, who made (poieō) the heaven and the earth and the sea and all that is in them.
14: 27When they arrived, they called the church together and related all that God had done (poieō) with them, and how he had opened a door of faith for the Gentiles.
15: 3So they were sent on their way by the church, and as they passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, they reported the conversion of the Gentiles, and made (poieō) great joy to all the believers.
15: 4When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they reported all that God had done (poieō) with them.
15: 12The whole assembly kept silence, and listened to Barnabas and Paul as they told of all the signs and wonders that God had done (poieō) through them among the Gentiles.
15: 17so that all other peoples may seek the Lord - even all the Gentiles over whom my name has been called. Thus says the Lord, who has been making (poieō) these things
15: 33After doing (poieō) time, they were sent off in peace by the believers to those who had sent them.
16: 18She kept doing (poieō) this for many days. But Paul, very much annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, "I order you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her." And it came out that very hour.
16: 21and are advocating customs that are not lawful for us as Romans to do (poieō) or observe."
16: 30Then he brought them outside and said, "Sirs, what must I do (poieō) to be saved?"
17: 24The God who made (poieō) the world and everything in it, he who is Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in shrines built by human hands,
17: 26From one ancestor he made (poieō) all nations to inhabit the whole earth, and he allotted the times of their existence and the boundaries of the places where they would live,
18: 23After doing (poieō) time there he departed and went from place to place through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
19: 11God did (poieō) extraordinary miracles through Paul,
19: 14Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing (poieō) this.
19: 24A man named Demetrius, a silversmith who made (poieō) silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the artisans.
20: 3where made (poieō) three months. He was about to set sail for Syria when a plot was hatched against him by the Jews, and so he decided to return through Macedonia.
20: 24But I do (poieō) not count my life of any value to myself, 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.
21: 13Then Paul answered, "What are you doing (poieō), weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound but even to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."
21: 19After greeting them, he related one by one the things that God had done (poieō) among the Gentiles through his ministry.
21: 23So do (poieō) what we tell you. We have four men who are under a vow.
21: 33Then the tribune came, arrested him, and ordered him to be bound with two chains; he inquired who he was and what he had done (poieō).
22: 10I asked, 'What am I to do (poieō), Lord?' The Lord said to me, 'Get up and go to Damascus; there you will be told everything that has been assigned to you to do (poieō).'
22: 26When the centurion heard that, he went to the tribune and said to him, "What are you about to do (poieō)? This man is a Roman citizen."
23: 12In the morning the Jews made (poieō) a conspiracy and bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.
23: 13There were more than forty who made (poieō) in this conspiracy.
24: 12They did not find me disputing with anyone in the temple or making (poieō) a crowd stirring up in the synagogues or throughout the city.
24: 17Now after some years making (poieō) charity to my nation and offering sacrifices.
25: 3and requested, as a favor to them against Paul, to have him transferred to Jerusalem. They were, in fact, making (poieō) an ambush to kill him along the way.
25: 17So when they met here, I made (poieō) no delay, but on the next day took my seat on the tribunal and ordered the man to be brought.
26: 10And that is what I did (poieō) in Jerusalem; with authority received from the chief priests, I not only locked up many of the saints in prison, but I also cast my vote against them when they were being condemned to death.
26: 28Agrippa said to Paul, "You are about to persuade me and make (poieō) me a Christian?"
27: 18We were being pounded by the storm so violently that on the next day they were making (poieō) to throw the cargo overboard,
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 (poieō) nothing against our people or the customs of our ancestors, yet I was arrested in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans.

2 John

1: 6If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do (poieō) what is true;
1: 10If we say that we have not sinned, we make (poieō) him a liar, and his word is not in us.
2: 17And the world and its desire are passing away, but those who do (poieō) the will of God live forever.
2: 29If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that everyone who does (poieō) right has been born of him.
3: 4Everyone who does (poieō) sin and does (poieō) lawlessness; sin is lawlessness.
3: 7Little children, let no one deceive you. Everyone who does (poieō) what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous.
3: 8Everyone who does (poieō) sin is a child of the devil; for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The Son of God was revealed for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil.
3: 9Those who have been born of God do (poieō) not sin, because God's seed abides in them; they cannot sin, because they have been born of God.
3: 10The children of God and the children of the devil are revealed in this way: all who do not do (poieō) what is right are not from God, nor are those who do not love their brothers and sisters.
3: 22and we receive from him whatever we ask, because we obey his commandments and do (poieō) what pleases him.
5: 2By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and do (poieō) his commandments.
5: 10Those who believe in the Son of God have the testimony in their hearts. Those who do not believe in God have made (poieō) him a liar by not believing in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son.

3 John

1: 5Beloved, you do (poieō) faithfully whatever you worked towards the friends, even though they are strangers to you;
1: 6they have testified to your love before the church. You will do (poieō) well to send them on in a manner worthy of God;
1: 10So if I come, I will call attention to what he is doing (poieō) in spreading false charges against us. And not content with those charges, he refuses to welcome the friends, and even prevents those who want and expels them from the church.
