| 25: 35 | for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger (xenos) and you welcomed me, |

| 25: 43 | I was a stranger (xenos) and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not give me clothing, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.' |
| 25: 44 | Then they also will answer, 'Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry or thirsty or a stranger (xenos) or naked or sick or in prison, and did not take care of you?' |
| 27: 7 | After conferring together, they used them to buy the potter's field as a place to bury foreign (xenos) people. |
Acts
| 17: 18 | Also some Epicurean and Stoic philosophers debated with him. Some said, "What does this babbler want to say?" Others said, "He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign (xenos) divinities." (This was because he was telling the good news about Jesus and the resurrection.) |
| 17: 21 | Now all the Athenians and the foreign (xenos) peope living there would spend their time in nothing but telling or hearing something new. |
