dear <JER31 -20> Is] Ephraim my {dear} son? [is he] a pleasant child? for since I spake against him, I do earnestly remember him still: therefore my bowels are troubled for him; I will surely have mercy upon him, saith the LORD.

dear <LUK7 -2> And a certain centurion's servant, who was {dear} unto him, was sick, and ready to die.

dear <ACT20 -24> But none of these things move me, neither count I my life {dear} unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

dear <EPH5 -1> Be ye therefore followers of God, as {dear} children;

dear <COL1 -7> As ye also learned of Epaphras our {dear} fellowservant, who is for you a faithful minister of Christ;

dear <COL1 -13> Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us] into the kingdom of his {dear} Son:

dear <1TH2 -8> So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were {dear} unto us.
