Some have strayed from these and turned away to empty discussion.

By professing it, some have strayed from the faith. ¹  Grace be with you all. ²

“For this reason I ¹  am sending you prophets and wise men and experts in the law, ²  some of whom you will kill and crucify, ³  and some you will flog ⁴  in your synagogues ⁵  and pursue from town to town,

But some men from the Synagogue ¹  of the Freedmen (as it was called), ²  both Cyrenians and Alexandrians, as well as some from Cilicia and the province of Asia, ³  stood up and argued with Stephen.

And as he sowed, some seeds ¹  fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them.

They answered, “Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, ¹  and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”

But some of the Pharisees ¹  said, “Why are you ²  doing what is against the law ³  on the Sabbath?”

Jesus ¹  also told this parable to some who were confident that they were righteous and looked down ²  on everyone else.
