You improvise songs on the harp like David and invent your own musical instruments.

…you who rejoice in Lo-debar and say, ‘Did we not take Karnaim by our own strength?’

I will firmly plant them in their own land, never again to be uprooted from the land that I have given them,” says the LORD your God.

For the Day of the LORD is near for all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you; your recompense will return upon your own head.

The sailors were afraid, and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the ship’s cargo into the sea to lighten the load. But Jonah had gone down to the lowest part of the vessel, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep.

So he prayed to the LORD, saying, “O LORD, is this not what I said while I was still in my own country? This is why I was so quick to flee toward Tarshish. I knew that You are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion—One who relents from sending disaster.

And each man will sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree, with no one to frighten him. For the mouth of the LORD of Hosts has spoken.

And each man will sit under his own vine and under his own fig tree, with no one to frighten him. For the mouth of the LORD of Hosts has spoken.

I will also cut off the carved images and sacred pillars from among you, so that you will no longer bow down to the work of your own hands.

For a son dishonors his father, a daughter rises against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man’s enemies are the members of his own household.

For behold, I am raising up the Chaldeans—that ruthless and impetuous nation which marches through the breadth of the earth to seize dwellings not their own.

Then they sweep by like the wind and pass through. They are guilty; their own strength is their god.”

…and wealth indeed betrays him. He is an arrogant man never at rest. He enlarges his appetite like Sheol, and like Death, he is never satisfied. He gathers all the nations to himself and collects all the peoples as his own.

What use is an idol, that a craftsman should carve it—or an image, a teacher of lies? For its maker trusts in his own creation; he makes idols that cannot speak.

With his own spear You pierced his head, when his warriors stormed out to scatter us, gloating as though ready to secretly devour the weak.

The LORD will be terrifying to them when He starves all the gods of the earth. Then the nations of every shore will bow in worship to Him, each in its own place.

You expected much, but behold, it amounted to little. And what you brought home, I blew away. Why? declares the LORD of Hosts. Because My house still lies in ruins, while each of you is busy with his own house.

I will surely wave My hand over them, so that they will become plunder for their own servants. Then you will know that the LORD of Hosts has sent Me.”

On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, you will each invite your neighbor to sit under your own vine and fig tree.’”

But I will camp around My house because of an army, because of those who march to and fro, and never again will an oppressor overrun My people, for now I keep watch with My own eyes.

…whose buyers slaughter them without remorse. Those who sell them say, ‘Blessed be the LORD, for I am rich!’ Even their own shepherds have no compassion on them.

The land will mourn, each clan on its own: the clan of the house of David and their wives, the clan of the house of Nathan and their wives,

You will see this with your own eyes, and you yourselves will say, ‘The LORD is great—even beyond the borders of Israel.’”

“They will be Mine,” says the LORD of Hosts, “on the day when I prepare My treasured possession. And I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Today has enough trouble of its own.

Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?

How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while there is still a beam in your own eye?

You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

But Jesus told him, “Follow Me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”

Jesus got into a boat, crossed over, and came to His own town.

A man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’

And they took offense at Him. But Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

“Yes,” he answered. When Peter entered the house, Jesus preempted him. “What do you think, Simon?” He asked. “From whom do the kings of the earth collect customs and taxes: from their own sons, or from others?”

To one he gave five talents, to another two talents, and to another one talent—each according to his own ability. And he went on his journey.

After they had mocked Him, they removed the robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him away to crucify Him.

…and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut into the rock. Then he rolled a great stone across the entrance to the tomb and went away.

He did not tell them anything without using a parable. But privately He explained everything to His own disciples.

But Jesus would not allow him. “Go home to your own people,” He said, “and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and what mercy He has shown you.”

And they laughed at Him. After He had put them all outside, He took the child’s father and mother and His own companions, and went in to see the child.

Then Jesus said to them, “Only in his hometown, among his relatives, and in his own household is a prophet without honor.”

He went on to say, “You neatly set aside the command of God to maintain your own tradition.

Jesus looked at him, loved him, and said to him, “There is one thing you lack: Go, sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”

It is like a man going on a journey who left his house, put each servant in charge of his own task, and instructed the doorkeeper to keep watch.

After they had mocked Him, they removed the purple robe and put His own clothes back on Him. Then they led Him out to crucify Him.

And everyone went to his own town to register.

When Jesus’ parents had done everything required by the Law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth.

Why do you look at the speck in your brother’s eye but fail to notice the beam in your own eye?

How can you say, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while you yourself fail to see the beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

How can you say, ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye,’ while you yourself fail to see the beam in your own eye? You hypocrite! First take the beam out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.

For each tree is known by its own fruit. Indeed, figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor grapes from brambles.

Joanna the wife of Herod’s household manager Chuza, Susanna, and many others. These women were ministering to them out of their own means.

But Jesus told him, “Let the dead bury their own dead. You, however, go and proclaim the kingdom of God.”

He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be required of you. Then who will own what you have accumulated?’

“If anyone comes to Me and does not hate his father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be My disciple.

The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the sons of this age are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the sons of light.

And if you have not been faithful with the belongings of another, who will give you belongings of your own?

To some who trusted in their own righteousness and viewed others with contempt, He also told this parable:

On hearing this, Jesus told him, “You still lack one thing: Sell everything you own and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”

His master replied, ‘You wicked servant, I will judge you by your own words. So you knew that I am a harsh man, withdrawing what I did not deposit and reaping what I did not sow?

“Why do we need any more testimony?” they declared. “We have heard it for ourselves from His own lips.”

He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.

He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.

Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.

Because of this, the Jews tried all the harder to kill Him. Not only was He breaking the Sabbath, but He was even calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God.

I can do nothing by Myself; I judge only as I hear. And My judgment is just, because I do not seek My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

I have come in My Father’s name, and you have not received Me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will receive him.

For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but to do the will of Him who sent Me.

For even His own brothers did not believe in Him.

Go up to the feast on your own. I am not going up to this feast, because My time has not yet come.”

“My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied. “It comes from Him who sent Me.

If anyone desires to do His will, he will know whether My teaching is from God or whether I speak on My own.

He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory, but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is a man of truth; in Him there is no falsehood.

He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory, but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is a man of truth; in Him there is no falsehood.

Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts, cried out, “You know Me, and you know where I am from. I have not come of My own accord, but He who sent Me is true. You do not know Him,

Then each went to his own home.

Even in your own Law it is written that the testimony of two men is valid.

So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing on My own, but speak exactly what the Father has taught Me.

Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on My own, but He sent Me.

I do not seek My own glory. There is One who seeks it, and He is the Judge.

The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen for his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.

The hired hand is not the shepherd, and the sheep are not his own. When he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf pounces on them and scatters the flock.

No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of My own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from My Father.”

Caiaphas did not say this on his own. Instead, as high priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the nation,

I have not spoken on My own, but the Father who sent Me has commanded Me what to say and how to say it.

It was now just before the Passover Feast, and Jesus knew that His hour had come to leave this world and return to the Father. Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the very end.

Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words I say to you, I do not speak on My own. Instead, it is the Father dwelling in Me, performing His works.

Whoever does not love Me does not keep My words. The word that you hear is not My own, but it is from the Father who sent Me.

If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.

However, when the Spirit of truth comes, He will guide you into all truth. For He will not speak on His own, but He will speak what He hears, and He will declare to you what is to come.

“Look, an hour is coming and has already come when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and you will leave Me all alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

“You take Him and judge Him by your own law,” Pilate told them. “We are not permitted to execute anyone,” the Jews replied.

“Are you saying this on your own,” Jesus asked, “or did others tell you about Me?”

“Am I a Jew?” Pilate replied. “Your own people and chief priests handed You over to me. What have You done?”

Carrying His own cross, He went out to The Place of the Skull, which in Hebrew is called Golgotha.

Jesus replied, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by His own authority.

This became known to all who lived in Jerusalem, so they called that field in their own language Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)

And when this sound rang out, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking his own language.

How is it then that each of us hears them in his own native language?
