Matthew 14:23

James Moffatt - New Testament

after he had dismissed the crowds he went up the hill by himself to pray. When evening came he was there alone,

See the chapter Copy

It was in these days that he went off to the hillside to pray. He spent the whole night in prayer to God,

and after saying goodbye to them he went up the hill to pray.

Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he told the disciples, "Sit here till I go over there and pray."

When you pray, go into your room and shut the door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees what is secret will reward you.

but we will continue to devote ourselves to prayer and the ministry of the word."

It was about eight days after he said this, when he took Peter, John, and James, and went up the hillside to pray.

Then in the early morning, long before daylight, he got up and went away out to a lonely spot.

Now when all the people had been baptized and when Jesus had been baptized and was praying, heaven opened

while he kept in lonely places and prayed.

Now it happened that while he was praying by himself his disciples were beside him. So he inquired of them, "Who do the crowds say I am?"
