And Rebekah arose, and her damsels, and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man: and the servant took Rebekah, and went his way. Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil. But my servant Caleb, because he had another spirit with him, and hath followed me fully, him will I bring into the land whereinto he went; and his seed shall possess it. Save Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him will I give the land that he hath trodden upon, and to his children, because he hath wholly followed the Lord. And Samuel said unto the people, Fear not: ye have done all this wickedness: yet turn not aside from following the Lord, but serve the Lord with all your heart.
And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow HIM: but if Baal, then follow him. And the people answered him not a word. And Ahab did very abominably in following idols, according to all things as did the Amorites, whom the Lord cast out before the children of Israel. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom. And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the Lord had charged them, that they should not do like them.
For he clave to the Lord, and departed not from following HIM, but kept HIS commandments, which the Lord commanded Moses. And the Philistines followed hard after Saul, and after his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Malchishua, the sons of Saul.
And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that pertained to the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel to serve, even to serve the Lord their God. And all his days they departed not from following the Lord, the God of their fathers.
So neither I, nor my brethren, nor my servants, nor the men of the guard which followed me, none of us put off our clothes, saving that every one put them off for washing.
They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is. My soul followeth hard after THEE: Thy right hand upholdeth me. But judgment shall return unto righteousness: and all the upright in heart shall follow it. They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from Thy law.
He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain persons is void of understanding. The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the Lord: but He loveth him that followeth after righteousness. He that followeth after righteousness and mercy findeth life, righteousness, and honour. He that tilleth his land shall have plenty of bread: but he that followeth after vain persons shall have poverty enough.
Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them! Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the Lord: His going forth is prepared as the morning; and HE shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain unto the earth. And the Lord took me as I followed the flock, and the Lord said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
And he saith unto them, Follow ME, and I will make you fishers of men. And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed HIM. And as Jesus passed forth from thence, he saw a man, named Matthew, sitting at the receipt of custom: and He saith unto him, Follow ME. And he arose, and followed HIM. The day following Jesus would go forth into Galilee, and findeth Philip, and saith unto him, Follow ME. And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and His disciples: for there were many, and they followed HIM. Then Jesus turned, and saw them following, and saith unto them, What seek ye? They said unto him, Rabbi, (which is to say, being interpreted, Master,) where dwellest thou?
And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and His disciples follow HIM. And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, He said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow ME. And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us. But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me. And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid.
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the Light of the world: he that followeth ME shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow HIM: for they know His voice. And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers. My sheep hear My Voice, and I know them, and they follow ME.
If any man serve ME, let him follow ME; and where I am, there shall also My servant be: if any man serve ME, him will my Father honour. Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow Me now; but thou shalt follow Me afterwards. Peter said unto Him, Lord, why cannot I follow Thee now? I will lay down My life for Thy sake.
And when Jesus departed thence, two blind men followed HIM, crying, and saying, Thou son of David, have mercy on us. And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after ME, is not worthy of Me. And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way. And immediately he received his sight, and followed HIM, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God. Now when Jesus heard these things, He said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow ME.
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after ME, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow ME. Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow ME. And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.
And he came out, and went, as He was wont, to the mount of Olives; and His disciples also followed HIM. But Peter followed HIM afar off unto the high priest's palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end. And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest. And Peter followed Him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.
And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him. And there followed Him a great company of people, and of women, which also bewailed and lamented Him. And the women also, which came with Him from Galilee, followed after, and beheld the sepulchre, and how His body was laid.
And the angel said unto Peter, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me. And he went out, and followed him; and wist not that it was true which was done by the angel; but thought he saw a vision. Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas: who, speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another. Wherefore I beseech you, be ye followers of me. Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.
Follow after charity, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy. Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children. Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord. For HE is our Peace. Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow HIS steps.
For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of HIS majesty. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. Which have forsaken the right way, and are gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Bosor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness.
Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow The Lamb whithersoever HE goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb. And the armies which were in heaven followed HIM upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
