Unchecked Copy BoxGen 21:15 -

When the water in the skin was used up, she [fn]left the boy under one of the bushes.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 21:16 - Then she went and sat down opposite him, about a bowshot away, for she said, “May I not [fn]see the boy die!” And she sat opposite him, and raised her voice and wept.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 21:17 - God heard the boy crying; and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and said to her, “[fn]What is the matter with you, Hagar? Do not fear, for God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 21:20 -

And God was with the boy, and he grew; and he lived in the wilderness and became an archer.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 21:22 -

Now it came about at that time that Abimelech and Phicol, the commander of his army, spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all that you do;

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 21:32 - So they made a covenant at Beersheba; and Abimelech and Phicol, the commander of his army, got up and returned to the land of the Philistines.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 21:34 - And Abraham resided in the land of the Philistines for many days.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:1 -

Now it came about after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, “Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:3 - So Abraham got up early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him and his son Isaac; and he split wood for the burnt offering, and set out and went to the place of which God had told him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:5 - Then Abraham said to his young men, “Stay here with the donkey, and I and the boy will go over there; and we will worship and return to you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:6 - And Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and laid it on his son Isaac, and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So the two of them walked on together.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:7 - Isaac spoke to his father Abraham and said, “My father!” And he said, “Here I am, my son.” And he said, “Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:8 - Abraham said, “God will [fn]provide for Himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” So the two of them walked on together.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:11 - But the angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, “Abraham, Abraham!” And he said, “Here I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:19 - So Abraham returned to his young men, and they got up and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham lived in Beersheba.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 22:20 -

Now it came about after these things, that Abraham was told, saying, “Behold, Milcah [fn]also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 23:1 -

Now [fn]Sarah lived 127 years; these were the years of the life of Sarah.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 23:2 - Sarah died in Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan; and Abraham [fn]came in to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 23:5 - The sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 23:6 - “Hear us, my lord: you are a [fn]mighty prince among us; bury your dead in the choicest of our graves; none of us will refuse you his grave for burying your dead.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 23:7 - So Abraham stood up and bowed to the people of the land, the sons of Heth.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 23:10 - Now Ephron was sitting among the sons of Heth; and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham [fn]so that the sons of Heth heard, that is, all who entered the gate of his city, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 23:14 - Then Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 23:15 - “My lord, listen to me: a plot of land worth [fn]four hundred shekels of silver—what is that between me and you? So bury your dead.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:5 - The servant said to him, “Suppose the woman is not willing to follow me to this land; should I take your son back to the land from where you came?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:6 - Then Abraham said to him, “Beware that you do not take my son back there!
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:8 - “But if the woman is not willing to follow you, then you will be free of this oath of mine; only do not take my son back there.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:13 - “Behold, I am standing by the [fn]spring, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:15 -

And it came about, before he had finished speaking, that behold, Rebekah, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Abraham's brother Nahor, came out with her jar on her shoulder.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:16 - The young woman was very beautiful, a virgin; no man had [fn]had relations with her. She went down to the spring, filled her jar, and came up.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:17 - Then the servant ran to meet her, and said, “Please let me drink a little water from your jar.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:18 - And she said, “Drink, my lord”; then she quickly lowered her jar to her hand, and gave him a drink.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:21 - Meanwhile, the man was taking a close look at her [fn]in silence, to find out whether the LORD had made his journey successful or not.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:22 -

When the camels had finished drinking, the man took a gold ring weighing a [fn]half-shekel, and two bracelets for her [fn]wrists weighing ten shekels in gold,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:29 - Now Rebekah had a brother whose name was Laban; and Laban ran outside to the man at the spring.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:31 - And he said, “Come in, blessed of the LORD! Why do you stand outside, since I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:32 - So the man entered the house. Then [fn]Laban unloaded the camels, and he gave straw and feed to the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who were with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:35 - “The LORD has greatly blessed my master, so that he has become [fn]rich; and He has given him flocks and herds, and silver and gold, and servants and slave women, and camels and donkeys.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:39 - “Then I said to my master, ‘Suppose the woman does not follow me.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:45 -

“Before I had finished speaking in my heart, behold, Rebekah came out with her jar on her shoulder, and went down to the spring and drew water, and I said to her, ‘Please let me drink.'

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:47 - “Then I asked her, and said, ‘Whose daughter are you?' And she said, ‘The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bore to him'; and I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her [fn]wrists.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:49 - “So now if you are going to [fn]deal kindly and truthfully with my master, tell me; and if not, tell me now, so that I may turn to the right or the left.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:50 -

Then Laban and Bethuel replied, “The matter has come from the LORD; so we cannot speak to you bad or good.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:52 -

When Abraham's servant heard their words, he bowed himself to the ground [fn]before the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:55 - But her brother and her mother said, “Let the young woman stay with us a few days, say ten; afterward she may go.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:56 - However, he said to them, “Do not delay me, since the LORD has prospered my way. Send me away so that I may go to my master.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:57 - And they said, “We will call the young woman and [fn]ask her.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:58 - Then they called Rebekah and said to her, “Will you go with this man?” And she said, “I will go.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:61 -

Then Rebekah got up with her female attendants, and they mounted the camels and followed the man. So the servant took Rebekah and departed.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:62 -

Now Isaac had come back from [fn]a journey to Beer-lahai-roi; for he was living in the [fn]Negev.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:65 - She said to the servant, “Who is that man walking in the field to meet us?” And the servant said, “He is my master.” Then she took her [fn]veil and covered herself.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 24:67 - Then Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and he took Rebekah, and she became his wife, and he loved her; so Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:1 -

Now Abraham took another wife, [fn]whose name was Keturah.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:2 - She bore to him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:3 - Jokshan fathered Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:4 - The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All of these were the sons of Keturah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:5 - Now Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:7 -

These are [fn]all the years of Abraham's life that he lived, 175 years.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:11 - It came about after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac [fn]lived by Beer-lahai-roi.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:12 -

Now these are the records of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's slave woman, bore to Abraham;

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:18 - They [fn]settled from Havilah to Shur which is [fn]east of Egypt [fn]going toward Assyria; he [fn]settled in defiance of all his relatives.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:20 - and Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the [fn]Aramean of Paddan-aram, the sister of Laban the [fn]Aramean, to be his wife.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:21 - Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of his wife, because she was unable to have children; and the LORD [fn]answered him, and his wife Rebekah conceived.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:22 - But the children struggled together within her; and she said, “If it is so, why am I in this condition?” So she went to inquire of the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:25 - Now the first came out red, all over like a hairy garment; and they named him Esau.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:26 - Afterward his brother came out with his hand holding on to Esau's heel, so he was named [fn]Jacob; and Isaac was sixty years old when she gave birth to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:27 -

When the boys grew up, Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the field; but Jacob was a [fn]civilized man, living in tents.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:28 - Now Isaac loved Esau because [fn]he had a taste for game; but Rebekah loved Jacob.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:29 - When Jacob had cooked a stew one day, Esau came in from the field and he was exhausted;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:31 - But Jacob said, “[fn]First sell me your birthright.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:32 - Esau said, “Look, I am about to die; so of what use then is the birthright to me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:33 - And Jacob said, “[fn]First swear to me”; so he swore an oath to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:34 - Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew; and he ate and drank, and got up and went on his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:1 -

Now there was a famine in the land, besides the previous famine that had occurred in the days of Abraham. So Isaac went to Gerar, to Abimelech king of the Philistines.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:2 - And the LORD appeared to him and said, “Do not go down to Egypt; stay in the land of which I shall tell you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:7 - When the men of the place asked about his wife, he said, “She is my sister,” for he was afraid to say, “my wife,” thinking,[fn]the men of the place might kill me on account of Rebekah, since she is beautiful.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:8 - Now it came about, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked down through a window, and saw them, and behold, Isaac was caressing his wife Rebekah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:9 - Then Abimelech called Isaac and said, “Behold, she certainly is your wife! So how is it that you said, ‘She is my sister'?” And Isaac said to him, “Because I thought, ‘otherwise I might be killed on account of her.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:10 - And Abimelech said, “What is this that you have done to us? One of the people might easily have slept with your wife, and you would have brought guilt upon us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:11 - So Abimelech commanded all the people, saying, “He who touches this man or his wife will certainly be put to death.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:12 -

Now Isaac sowed in that land and [fn]reaped in the same year a hundred times as much. And the LORD blessed him,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:14 - for he had possessions of flocks [fn]and herds, and a great household, so that the Philistines envied him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:16 - Then Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from us, for you are [fn]too powerful for us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:21 - Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over it too, so he named it [fn]Sitnah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:22 - Then he moved away from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it; so he named it [fn]Rehoboth, for he said, “[fn]At last the LORD has made [fn]room for us, and we will be fruitful in the land.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:23 -

And he went up from there to Beersheba.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:25 -

So he built an altar there and called upon the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there; and there Isaac's servants dug a well.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:27 - Isaac said to them, “Why have you come to me, since you hate me and have sent me away from you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:32 - Now it came about on the same day, that Isaac's servants came in and told him about the well which they had dug, and said to him, “We have found water.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:34 -

When Esau was forty years old he [fn]married Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite;

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:1 -

Now it came about, when Isaac was old and his eyes were too dim to see, that he called his older son Esau and said to him, “My son.” And he said to him, “Here I am.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:5 -

Now Rebekah was listening while Isaac spoke to his son Esau. So when Esau went to the field to hunt for game to bring home,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:6 - Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “Behold, I heard your father speak to your brother Esau, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:11 - But Jacob said to his mother Rebekah, “Behold, my brother Esau is a hairy man and I am a smooth man.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:13 - But his mother said to him, “Your curse be on me, my son; only obey my voice, and go, get the goats for me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:14 - So he went and got them, and brought them to his mother; and his mother made a delicious meal such as his father loved.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:18 -

Then he came to his father and said, “My father.” And he said, “Here I am. Who are you, my son?”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:20 - Isaac said to his son, “How is it that you have it so quickly, my son?” And he said, “Because the LORD your God made it [fn]come to me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:21 - Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come close, so that I may feel you, my son, whether you are really my son Esau or not.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:22 - So Jacob came close to his father Isaac, and he touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:24 - And he said, “Are you really my son Esau?” And he said, “I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:29 -

May peoples serve you,

And nations bow down to you;

Be master of your brothers,

And may your mother's sons bow down to you.

Cursed be those who curse you,

And blessed be those who bless you.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:32 - His father Isaac said to him, “Who are you?” And he said, “I am your son, your firstborn, Esau.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:33 - Then Isaac [fn]trembled violently, and said, “Who then was he who hunted game and brought it to me, so that I ate from all of it before you came, and blessed him? Yes, and he shall be blessed.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:34 - When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried out with an exceedingly great and bitter cry, and said to his father, “Bless me, me as well, my father!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:35 - And he said, “Your brother came deceitfully and has taken away your blessing.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:37 - But Isaac replied to Esau, “Behold, I have made him your master, and I have given to him all his relatives [fn]as servants; and with grain and new wine I have sustained him. What then can I do for you, my son?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:38 - Esau said to his father, “Do you have only one blessing, my father? Bless me, me as well, my father.” So Esau raised his voice and wept.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:39 -

Then his father Isaac answered and said to him,

“Behold, [fn]away from the [fn]fertility of the earth shall be your dwelling,

And [fn]away from the dew of heaven from above.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:40 -

“And by your sword you shall live,

And you shall serve your brother;

But it shall come about when you become restless,

That you will [fn]break his yoke from your neck.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:41 -

So Esau held a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him; and Esau said [fn]to himself, “The days of mourning for my father are near; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:42 - Now when the words of her elder son Esau were reported to Rebekah, she sent word and called her younger son Jacob, and said to him, “Behold your brother Esau is consoling himself concerning you by planning to kill you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:46 -

And Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am tired of [fn]living because of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob takes a wife from the daughters of Heth like these from the daughters of the land, what good will my life be to me?”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:1 -

So Isaac called Jacob and blessed him and commanded him, [fn]saying to him, “You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:3 - “May [fn]God Almighty bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, so that you may become a multitude of peoples.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:5 - Then Isaac sent Jacob away, and he went to Paddan-aram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:6 -

Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan-aram to take to himself a wife from there, and that when he blessed him he commanded him, saying, “You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan,”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:13 - Then behold, the LORD was standing [fn]above it and said, “I am the LORD, the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and to your [fn]descendants.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:16 - Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “The LORD is certainly in this place, and I did not know it!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:1 -

Then Jacob [fn]set out on his journey, and went to the land of the [fn]people of the east.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:2 - He looked, and [fn]saw a well in the field, and behold, three flocks of sheep were lying there beside it, because they watered the flocks from that well. Now the stone on the mouth of the well was large.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:4 -

Jacob said to them, “My brothers, where are you from?” And they said, “We are from Haran.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:5 - So he said to them, “Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?” And they said, “We know him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:6 - And he said to them, “Is it well with him?” And they said, “It is well, and here is his daughter Rachel coming with the sheep.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:8 - But they said, “We cannot, until all the flocks are gathered, and they roll the stone from the mouth of the well; then we water the sheep.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:10 - When Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of his mother's brother Laban, and the sheep of his mother's brother Laban, Jacob went up and rolled the stone from the mouth of the well, and watered the flock of his mother's brother Laban.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:13 -

So when Laban heard the news about Jacob, his sister's son, he ran to meet him, and embraced him and kissed him, and brought him to his house. Then he told Laban all these things.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:15 -

Then Laban said to Jacob, “Because you are my relative, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what shall your wages be?”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:16 - Now Laban had two daughters; the name of the older was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:17 - And Leah's eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful in figure and appearance.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:18 - Now Jacob loved Rachel, so he said, “I will serve you seven years for your younger daughter Rachel.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:19 - Laban said, “It is better that I give her to you than to give her to another man; stay with me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:21 -

Then Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife, for my [fn]time is completed, that I may have relations with her.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:22 - So Laban gathered all the people of the place and held a feast.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:24 - Laban also gave his female slave Zilpah to his daughter Leah as a slave.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:25 - So it came about in the morning that, behold, it was Leah! And he said to Laban, “What is this that you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served with you? Why then have you deceived me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:26 - But Laban said, “It is not [fn]the practice in our place to [fn]marry off the younger before the firstborn.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:28 - Jacob did so and completed her week, and he gave him his daughter Rachel as his wife.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:29 - Laban also gave his female slave Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as her slave.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:30 - So Jacob had relations with Rachel also, and indeed he loved Rachel more than Leah, and he served with [fn]Laban for another seven years.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:31 -

Now the LORD saw that Leah was [fn]unloved, and He opened her womb, but Rachel was unable to have children.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:32 - Leah conceived and gave birth to a son, and named him [fn]Reuben, for she said, “Because the LORD has [fn]seen my affliction; surely now my husband will love me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:33 - Then she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and said, “Because the LORD has [fn]heard that I am [fn]unloved, He has therefore given me this son also.” So she named him Simeon.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:1 -

Now when Rachel saw that she had not borne Jacob any children, [fn]she became jealous of her sister; and she said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I am going to die.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:2 - Then Jacob's anger burned against Rachel, and he said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:3 - Then she said, “Here is my female slave Bilhah: have relations with her that she may give birth [fn]on my knees, so that [fn]by her I too may obtain a child.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:4 - So she gave him her slave Bilhah as a wife, and Jacob had relations with her.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:9 -

When Leah saw that she had stopped having children, she took her slave Zilpah and gave her to Jacob as a wife.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:10 - And Leah's slave Zilpah bore Jacob a son.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:14 -

Now in the days of wheat harvest Reuben went and found mandrake fruits in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, “Please give me some of your son's mandrakes.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:15 - But she said to her, “Is it a small matter for you to take my husband? And would you take my son's mandrakes also?” So Rachel said, “Therefore he may sleep with you tonight in return for your son's mandrakes.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:16 - When Jacob came in from the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, “You must have relations with me, for I have indeed hired you with my son's mandrakes.” So he slept with her that night.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:22 -

Then God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her and opened her womb.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:23 - So she conceived and gave birth to a son, and said, “God has taken away my disgrace.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:25 -

Now it came about, when Rachel had given birth to Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, “Send me away, so that I may go to my own place and to my own country.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:27 - But Laban said to him, “If [fn]it pleases you at all, stay with me; I have determined by divination that the LORD has blessed me on your account.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:29 - But Jacob said to him, “You yourself know how I have served you and how your livestock have [fn]fared with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:31 - So he said, “What shall I give you?” And Jacob said, “You shall not give me anything. If you will do this one thing for me, I will again pasture and keep your flock:
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:34 - Laban said, “[fn]Good, let it be according to your word.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:36 - And he put a distance of three days' journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:37 -

Then Jacob [fn]took fresh rods of poplar, almond, and plane trees, and peeled white stripes in them, exposing the white that was [fn]in the rods.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:40 - Then Jacob separated the lambs, and [fn]made the flocks face toward the striped and all the black in the flock of Laban; and he put his own herds apart, and did not put them with Laban's flock.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:41 - Moreover, whenever the stronger of the flock were mating, Jacob would place the rods in the sight of the flock in the drinking troughs, so that they would mate by the rods;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:42 - but when the flock was sickly, he did not put them in; so the sickly were Laban's, and the stronger were Jacob's.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:1 -

Now [fn]Jacob heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, “Jacob has taken away all that was our father's, and from what belonged to our father he has made all this [fn]wealth.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:3 - Then the LORD said to Jacob, “Return to the land of your fathers and to your relatives, and I will be with you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:4 - So Jacob sent word and called Rachel and Leah to his flock in the field,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:5 - and said to them, “I see your father's [fn]attitude, that it is not friendly toward me as it was before, but the God of my father has been with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:6 - “You know that I have served your father with all my strength.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:7 - “Yet your father has cheated me and changed my wages ten times; however, God did not allow him to do me harm.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:8 - “If he said this: ‘The speckled shall be your wages,' then all the flock delivered speckled; and if he said this: ‘The striped shall be your wages,' then all the flock delivered striped.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:11 - “Then the angel of God said to me in the dream, ‘Jacob'; and I said, ‘Here I am.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:17 -

Then Jacob stood up and put his children and his wives on camels;

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:19 - Laban had gone to shear his flock, and Rachel stole the [fn]household idols that were her father's.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:20 - And Jacob [fn]deceived Laban the Aramean by not telling him that he was fleeing.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:22 -

When Laban was informed on the third day that Jacob had fled,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:24 - However, God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream of the night and said to him, “[fn]Be careful that you do not speak to Jacob either good or bad.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:25 -

And Laban caught up with Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country, and Laban with his kinsmen camped in the hill country of Gilead.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:26 - Then Laban said to Jacob, “What have you done [fn]by deceiving me and carrying away my daughters like captives of the sword?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:28 - and did not allow me to kiss my [fn]grandchildren and my daughters? Now you have done foolishly.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:29 - “It is in [fn]my power to do you harm, but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, ‘[fn]Be careful not to speak either good or bad to Jacob.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:31 - Then Jacob replied to Laban, “Because I was afraid, for I thought that you would take your daughters from me by force.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:32 - “The one with whom you find your gods shall not live; in the presence of our relatives [fn]point out what is yours [fn]among my belongings and take it for yourself.” Now Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:33 -

So Laban went into Jacob's tent, and into Leah's tent, and into the tent of the two slave women, but he did not find them. Then he went out of Leah's tent and entered Rachel's tent.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:34 - Now Rachel had taken the [fn]household idols and put them in the camel's saddlebag, and she sat on them. So Laban searched through all the tent, but did not find them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:35 - And she said to her father, “May my lord not be angry that I cannot stand in your presence, because the [fn]way of women is upon me.” So he searched but did not find the [fn]household idols.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:36 -

Then Jacob became angry and argued with Laban; and Jacob said to Laban, “What is my offense? What is my sin that you have hotly pursued me?

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:43 -

Then Laban replied to Jacob, “The daughters are my daughters, the [fn]children are my [fn]grandchildren, the flocks are my flocks, and everything that you see is mine. But what can I do this day to these daughters of mine or to their children to whom they have given birth?

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:44 - “So now come, let's make a covenant, [fn]you and I, and it shall be a witness between [fn]you and me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:45 - Then Jacob took a stone and set it up as a memorial stone.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:46 - Jacob said to his relatives, “Gather stones.” So they took stones and made a heap, and they ate there by the heap.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:47 - Now Laban called it [fn]Jegar-sahadutha, but Jacob called it [fn]Galeed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:48 - Laban said, “This heap is a witness between [fn]you and me this day.” Therefore it was named Galeed,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:55 - [fn]Then early in the morning Laban got up, and kissed his [fn]grandchildren and his daughters and blessed them. Then Laban departed and returned to his place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:2 - And when he saw them, Jacob said, “This is God's [fn]camp.” So he named that place [fn]Mahanaim.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:3 -

Then Jacob sent messengers ahead of himself to his brother Esau in the land of Seir, the [fn]country of Edom.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:7 - Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed; and he divided the people who were with him, and the flocks, the herds, and the camels, into two companies;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:9 -

Then Jacob said, “God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, LORD, who said to me, ‘Return to your country and to your relatives, and I will [fn]make you prosper,'

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:10 - [fn]I am unworthy of all the [fn]favor and of all the [fn]faithfulness, which You have shown to Your servant; for with only my staff I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two companies.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:12 - “For You said, ‘I will assuredly [fn]make you prosper and make your [fn]descendants as the sand of the sea, which is too great to be counted.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:16 - Then he placed them in the [fn]care of his servants, every flock by itself, and said to his servants, “Pass on ahead of me, and put a space between flocks.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:21 - So the gift passed on ahead of him, while he himself spent that night in the camp.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:22 -

Now he got up that same night and took his two wives, his two female slaves, and his eleven children, and crossed the shallow place of the Jabbok.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:24 - Then Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until daybreak.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:25 - When the man saw that he had not prevailed against him, he touched the socket of [fn]Jacob's hip; and the socket of Jacob's hip was dislocated while he wrestled with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:26 - Then he said, “Let me go, for the dawn is breaking.” But he said, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:27 - So he said to him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Jacob.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:28 - Then he said, “Your name shall no longer be Jacob, but [fn]Israel; for you have contended with God and with men, and have prevailed.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:29 - And Jacob asked him and said, “Please tell me your name.” But he said, “Why is it that you ask my name?” And he blessed him there.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:31 - Now the sun rose upon him just as he crossed over Penuel, and he was limping on his hip.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:1 -

Then Jacob raised his eyes and looked, and behold, Esau was coming, and four hundred men with him. So he divided the children [fn]among Leah and Rachel, and the two slave women.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:3 - But he himself passed on ahead of them and bowed down to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:5 - He raised his eyes and saw the women and the children, and said, “[fn]Who are these with you?” So he said, “The children whom God has graciously given your servant.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:8 - And he said, “What do you mean by all this company which I have met?” And he said, “To find favor in the sight of my lord.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:9 - But Esau said, “I have plenty, my brother; let what you have be your own.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:10 - Jacob said, “No, please, if now I have found favor in your sight, then accept my gift from my hand, [fn]for I see your face as one sees the face of God, and you have received me favorably.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:13 - But he said to him, “My lord knows that the children are frail and that the flocks and herds that are nursing are [fn]a matter of concern to me. And if they are driven hard just one day, all the flocks will die.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:14 - “Please let my lord pass on ahead of his servant, and I will proceed at my leisure, at the pace of the cattle that are ahead of me and at the pace of the children, until I come to my lord at Seir.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:15 -

Then Esau said, “Please let me leave with you some of the people who are with me.” But he said, “[fn]What need is there? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:16 - So Esau returned that day on his way to Seir.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:1 -

Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to [fn]visit the daughters of the land.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:4 - So Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, “Get me this young woman as a wife.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:5 - Now Jacob heard that he had defiled his daughter Dinah; but his sons were with his livestock in the field, so Jacob said nothing until they came in.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:6 - Then Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:7 - Now the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard about it; and the men were grieved, and they were very angry because he had done a [fn]disgraceful thing in Israel by [fn]sleeping with Jacob's daughter, for such a thing ought not to be done.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:11 - Shechem also said to her father and to her brothers, “Let me find favor in your sight, and I will give whatever you tell me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:13 -

But Jacob's sons answered Shechem and his father Hamor with deceit, because he had defiled their sister Dinah.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:14 - They said to them, “We cannot do this thing, that is, give our sister to a man who is uncircumcised, for that would be a disgrace to us.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:17 - “But if you do not listen to us to be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and go.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:19 - The young man did not delay to do [fn]this, because he was delighted with Jacob's daughter. Now he was more respected than all the household of his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:20 - So Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city and spoke to the people of their city, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:21 - “These men are [fn]friendly to us; therefore let them live in the land and trade in it, for behold, the land is [fn]large enough for them. We will take their daughters [fn]in marriage, and give our daughters to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:25 -

Now it came about on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of Jacob's sons—Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers—each took his sword and came upon the city undetected, and killed every male.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:27 - Jacob's sons came upon those killed and looted the city, because they had defiled their sister.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:30 - Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble on me by making me repulsive among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and [fn]since my men are few in number, they will band together against me and [fn]attack me, and I will be destroyed, I and my household!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:31 - But they said, “Should he [fn]treat our sister like a prostitute?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:1 -

Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel and live there, and make an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you fled [fn]from your brother Esau.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:2 - So Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, “Remove the foreign gods which are among you, and purify yourselves and change your garments;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:6 - So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:8 - Now Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the oak; and it was named [fn]Allon-bacuth.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:9 -

Then God appeared to Jacob again when he came from Paddan-aram, and He blessed him.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:11 - God also said to him,

“I am [fn]God Almighty;

Be fruitful and multiply;

A nation and a multitude of nations shall [fn]come from you,

And kings shall [fn]come from [fn]you.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:13 -

Then God went up from him at the place where He had spoken with him.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:16 -

Then they journeyed on from Bethel; but when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth and she suffered severe difficulties in her labor.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:17 - And when she was suffering severe difficulties in her labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not fear, for you have another son!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:18 - And it came about, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she named him [fn]Ben-oni; but his father called him [fn]Benjamin.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:19 - So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:22 -

And it came about, while Israel was living in that land, that Reuben went and slept with his father's concubine Bilhah, and Israel heard about it.

Now there were twelve sons of Jacob

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:24 - the sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:25 - and the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's female slave, were Dan and Naphtali;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:26 - and the sons of Zilpah, Leah's female slave, were Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-aram.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:27 -

Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre of Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had resided.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:28 -

Now the days of Isaac were 180 years.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:1 -

Now these are the records of the generations of Esau (that is, Edom).

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:2 -

Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah, the [fn]granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite;

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:4 - Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, and Basemath gave birth to Reuel,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:6 -

Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all [fn]his household, and his livestock and all his cattle, and all his property which he had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went to another land away from his brother Jacob.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:8 - So Esau lived in the hill country of Seir; Esau is Edom.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:9 -

These then are the records of the generations of Esau the father of [fn]the Edomites in the hill country of Seir.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:11 - The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, [fn]Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:12 - Timna was a concubine of Esau's son Eliphaz, and she bore Amalek to Eliphaz. These are the sons of Esau's wife Adah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:13 - And these are the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons of Esau's wife Basemath.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:14 - And these were the sons of Esau's wife Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah, the [fn]granddaughter of Zibeon: [fn]she bore to Esau Jeush, Jalam, and Korah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:18 - And these are the sons of Esau's wife Oholibamah: chief Jeush, chief Jalam, and chief Korah. These are the chiefs [fn]descended from Esau's wife Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:20 -

These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:22 - And the sons of Lotan were Hori and [fn]Hemam; and Lotan's sister was Timna.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:23 - And these are the sons of Shobal: [fn]Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, [fn]Shepho, and Onam.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:25 - And these are the children of Anah: Dishon, and Oholibamah, the daughter of Anah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:26 - And these are the sons of [fn]Dishon: [fn]Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:27 - These are the sons of Ezer: Bilhan, Zaavan, and [fn]Akan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:28 - These are the sons of Dishan: Uz and Aran.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:33 - Then Bela died, and Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah became king in his place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:34 - Then Jobab died, and Husham of the land of the Temanites became king in his place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:35 - Then Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who [fn]defeated Midian in the field of Moab, became king in his place; and the name of his city was Avith.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:36 - Then Hadad died, and Samlah of Masrekah became king in his place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:37 - Then Samlah died, and Shaul of Rehoboth on the Euphrates River became king in his place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:38 - Then Shaul died, and Baal-hanan the son of Achbor became king in his place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:39 - Then Baal-hanan the son of Achbor died, and [fn]Hadar became king in his place; and the name of his city was [fn]Pau; and his wife's name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, daughter of Mezahab.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:1 -

Now Jacob lived in the land where his father had lived as a stranger, in the land of Canaan.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:2 - These are the records of the generations of Jacob.

Joseph, when he was seventeen years of age, was pasturing the flock with his brothers, while he was still a youth, along with the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives. And Joseph brought back a bad report about them to their father.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:3 - Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his other sons, because he was the son of his old age; and he made him a [fn]multicolored tunic.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:4 - And his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers; and so they hated him and could not speak to him [fn]on friendly terms.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:5 -

Then Joseph [fn]had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him even more.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:7 - for behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and behold, my sheaf stood up and also remained standing; and behold, your sheaves gathered around and bowed down to my sheaf.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:8 - Then his brothers said to him, “Are you actually going to reign over us? Or are you really going to rule over us?” So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:9 -

Then he [fn]had yet another dream, and informed his brothers of it, and said, “Behold, I have [fn]had yet another dream; and behold, the sun and the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:11 - And his brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the matter in mind.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:12 -

Then his brothers went to pasture their father's flock in Shechem.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:13 - And Israel said to Joseph, “Are your brothers not pasturing the flock in Shechem? Come, and I will send you to them.” And he said to him, “[fn]I will go.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:14 - Then he said to him, “Go now and see about the welfare of your brothers and the welfare of the flock, and bring word back to me.” So he sent him from the Valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:15 -

A man found him, and behold, he was wandering in the field; and the man asked him, “[fn]What are you looking for?”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:16 - He said, “I am looking for my brothers; please tell me where they are pasturing the flock.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:17 - Then the man said, “They have moved from here; for I heard them say, ‘Let's go to Dothan.'” So Joseph went after his brothers and found them at Dothan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:18 -

[fn]When they saw him from a distance, and before he came closer to them, they plotted against him to put him to death.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:19 - They said to one another, “[fn]Here comes this dreamer!
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:21 - But Reuben heard this and rescued him out of their hands [fn]by saying, “Let's not [fn]take his life.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:22 - Then Reuben said to them, “Shed no blood. Throw him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but do not lay a hand on him”—so that later he might rescue him out of their hands, to return him to his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:23 - So it came about, when Joseph [fn]reached his brothers, that they stripped Joseph of his tunic, the [fn]multicolored tunic that was on him;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:24 - and they took him and threw him into the pit. Now the pit was empty, without any water in it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:25 -

Then they sat down to eat [fn]a meal. But as they raised their eyes and looked, behold, a caravan of Ishmaelites was coming from Gilead, with their camels carrying labdanum resin, balsam, and [fn]myrrh, [fn]on their way to bring them down to Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:26 - And Judah said to his brothers, “What profit is it for us to kill our brother and cover up his blood?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:27 - “Come, and let's sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay our hands on him, for he is our brother, our own flesh.” And his brothers listened to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:29 -

Now Reuben returned to the pit, and behold, Joseph was not in the pit; so he tore his garments.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:30 - He returned to his brothers and said, “The boy is not there; as for me, where am I to go?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:31 - So they took Joseph's tunic, and slaughtered a male goat, and dipped the tunic in the blood;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:34 - So Jacob tore his clothes, and put on a sackcloth undergarment over his waist, and mourned for his son many days.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:35 - Then all his sons and all his daughters got up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. And he said, “Surely I will go down to Sheol in mourning for my son.” So his father wept for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:36 - Meanwhile, the [fn]Midianites sold him in Egypt to Potiphar, Pharaoh's officer, the captain of the bodyguard.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:1 -

And it came about at that time, that Judah [fn]departed from his brothers and [fn]visited a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:5 - She gave birth to yet another son and named him Shelah; and it was at Chezib [fn]that she gave birth to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:7 - But Er, Judah's firstborn, was evil in the sight of the LORD, so the LORD took his life.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:8 - Then Judah said to Onan, “Have relations with your brother's wife and perform your duty as a brother-in-law to her, and raise up a [fn]child for your brother.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:9 - Now Onan knew that the [fn]child would not be his; so when he had relations with his brother's wife, he [fn]wasted his seed on the ground so that he would not give [fn]a child to his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:10 - But what he did was displeasing in the sight of the LORD; so He took his life also.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:11 - Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Remain a widow in your father's house until my son Shelah grows up”; for he [fn]thought, “I am afraid that he too may die like his brothers.” So Tamar went and lived in her father's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:12 -

Now [fn]after a considerable time Shua's daughter, the wife of Judah, died; and when [fn]the time of mourning was ended, Judah went up to his sheepshearers at Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:14 - So she [fn]removed her widow's garments and covered herself with a [fn]veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gateway of [fn]Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah had grown up, and she had not been given to him as a wife.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:16 - So he turned aside to her by the road, and said, “[fn]Here now, let me have relations with you”; for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said, “What will you give me, that you may have relations with me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:17 - He said, therefore, “I will send you a [fn]young goat from the flock.” She then said, “Will you give a pledge until you send it?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:18 - He said, “What pledge shall I give you?” And she said, “Your seal and your cord, and your staff that is in your hand.” So he gave them to her and had relations with her, and she conceived by him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:20 -

When Judah sent the [fn]young goat by his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand, he did not find her.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:21 - He asked the people of her place, saying, “Where is the temple prostitute who was by the road at Enaim?” But they said, “There has been no temple prostitute here.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:23 - Then Judah said, “Let her [fn]keep them, otherwise we will become a laughingstock. [fn]After all, I sent this young goat, but you did not find her.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:24 -

Now it was about three months later that Judah was [fn]informed, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar has prostituted herself, and behold, she is also pregnant by prostitution.” Then Judah said, “Bring her out and have her burned!”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:25 - It was while she was being brought out that she sent word to her father-in-law, saying, “I am pregnant by the man to whom these things belong.” She also said, “Please examine and see, whose signet ring and cords and staff are these?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:26 - And Judah recognized them, and said, “She is more righteous than I, since I did not give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not [fn]have relations with her again.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:27 -

It came about at the time she was giving birth, that behold, there were twins in her womb.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:28 - Moreover, it took place while she was giving birth, that one baby put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, “This one came out first.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:29 - But it came about as he drew back his hand that behold, his brother came out. Then she said, “What a breach you have made for yourself!” So he was named [fn]Perez.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:1 -

Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an Egyptian officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the bodyguard, bought him [fn]from the Ishmaelites, who had taken him down there.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:3 - Now his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made all that he did prosper in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:4 - So Joseph found favor in his sight and [fn]became his personal servant; and he made him overseer over his house, and [fn]put him in charge of all that he owned.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:5 - It came about that from the time he made him overseer in his house and over all that he owned, the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house on account of Joseph; so the LORD'S blessing was upon all that he owned, in the house and in the field.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:8 - But he refused and said to his master's wife, “Look, with me here, my master [fn]does not concern himself with anything in the house, and he has [fn]put me in charge of all that he owns.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:10 - Though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he did not listen to her to lie beside her or be with her.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:11 - Now it happened [fn]one day that he went into the house to do his work, and none of the people of the household was there inside.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:15 - “When he heard that I raised my voice and [fn]screamed, he left his garment beside me and fled and went outside.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:18 - but when I raised my voice and [fn]screamed, he left his garment beside me and fled outside.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:19 -

Now when his master heard the words of his wife which she spoke to him, saying, “[fn]This is what your slave did to me,” his anger burned.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:1 -

Then it came about after these things, that the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:4 - And the captain of the bodyguard put Joseph in charge of them, and he [fn]took care of them; and they were in confinement for [fn]some time.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:6 - [fn]When Joseph came to them in the morning and saw them, [fn]behold, they were dejected.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:8 - And they said to him, “We have [fn]had a dream, and there is no one to interpret it.” Then Joseph said to them, “Do interpretations not belong to God? Tell it to me, please.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:10 - and on the vine were three branches. And as it was budding, its blossoms came out, and its clusters produced ripe grapes.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:17 - and in the top basket there were some of all [fn]kinds of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:18 - Then Joseph answered and said, “This is its interpretation: the three baskets are three days;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:20 -

So it came about on the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he held a feast for all his servants; and he lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:22 - but he hanged the chief baker, just as Joseph had interpreted to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:23 - Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:1 -

Now it happened at the end of two full years that Pharaoh had a dream, and behold, he was standing by the Nile.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:3 - Then behold, seven other cows came up after them from the Nile, ugly and [fn]thin, and they stood by the other cows on the bank of the Nile.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:4 - Then the ugly and [fn]thin cows ate the seven fine-looking and fat cows. Then Pharaoh awoke.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:6 - Then behold, seven ears, thin and scorched by the east wind, sprouted up after them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:7 - And the thin ears swallowed the seven plump and full ears. Then Pharaoh awoke, and behold, it was a dream.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:8 - Now in the morning his spirit was troubled, so he sent messengers and called for all the soothsayer priests of Egypt, and all its wise men. And Pharaoh told them his [fn]dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them for Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:12 - “Now a Hebrew youth was there with us, a servant of the captain of the bodyguard, and we told him the dreams, and he interpreted our dreams for us. For each man he interpreted according to his own dream.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:13 - “And just as he interpreted for us, so it happened; Pharaoh restored me in my office, but he hanged [fn]the chief baker.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:14 -

Then Pharaoh sent word and called for Joseph, and they hurriedly brought him out of the dungeon; and when he had shaved himself and changed his clothes, he came to Pharaoh.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:15 - Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have had a dream, but no one can interpret it; and I have heard [fn]it said about you, that [fn]when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:16 - Joseph then answered Pharaoh, saying, “[fn]It has nothing to do with me; God will [fn]give Pharaoh an answer for his own good.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:17 - So Pharaoh said to Joseph, “In my dream, there I was, standing on the bank of the Nile;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:21 - “Yet when they had [fn]devoured them, it could not be [fn]detected that they had [fn]devoured them, [fn]for they were just as ugly as [fn]before. Then I awoke.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:23 - and behold, seven ears, withered, thin, and scorched by the east wind sprouted up after them;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:28 - [fn]It is as I have spoken to Pharaoh: God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:30 - and after them seven years of famine will [fn]come, and all the abundance will be forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine will [fn]ravage the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:32 - “Now as for the repeating of the dream to Pharaoh twice, it means that the matter is confirmed by God, and God will quickly bring it about.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:37 -

Now the [fn]proposal seemed good [fn]to Pharaoh and [fn]to all his servants.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:39 - So Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has informed you of all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you are.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:41 - Pharaoh also said to Joseph, “See, I have placed you over all the land of Egypt.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:44 - Moreover, Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Though I am Pharaoh, yet without [fn]your permission no one shall raise his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:46 -

Now Joseph was thirty years old when he [fn]stood in the presence of Pharaoh, king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh and went through all the land of Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:50 -

Now before the year of famine came, two sons were born to Joseph, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of [fn]On, bore to him.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:51 - Joseph named the firstborn [fn]Manasseh; “For,” he said, “God has made me forget all my trouble and all of my father's household.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:52 - And he named the second [fn]Ephraim; “For,” he said, “God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:53 -

When the seven years of plenty which had taken place in the land of Egypt came to an end,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:54 - and the seven years of famine began to come, just as Joseph had said, then there was famine in all the lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:55 - So when all the land of Egypt suffered famine, the people cried out to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph; whatever he says to you, you shall do.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:56 - When the famine was spread over the entire face of the earth, then Joseph opened all [fn]the storehouses and sold grain to the Egyptians; and the famine was severe in the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:1 -

Now Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, and Jacob said to his sons, “Why are you staring at one another?”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:3 - So ten of Joseph's brothers went down to buy grain from Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:4 - But Jacob did not send Joseph's brother Benjamin with his brothers, for he said, “I am afraid that harm may happen to him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:5 - So the sons of Israel came to buy grain among those who were coming, because the famine was also in the land of Canaan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:6 -

Now Joseph was the ruler over the land; he was the one who sold grain to all the people of the land. And Joseph's brothers came and bowed down to him with their faces to the ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:7 - When Joseph saw his brothers, he recognized them, but he disguised himself to them and spoke to them harshly. He said to them, “Where have you come from?” And they said, “From the land of Canaan, to buy food.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:8 -

But Joseph had recognized his brothers, although they did not recognize him.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:10 - And they said to him, “No, my lord, but your servants have come to buy food.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:12 - Yet he said to them, “No, but you have come to look at the [fn]undefended parts of our land!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:13 - But they said, “Your servants are twelve brothers in all, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is with our father today, and one is no longer alive.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:14 - Yet Joseph said to them, “It is as I said [fn]to you, you are spies;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:16 - “Send one of you and have him get your brother, while you remain confined, so that your words may be tested, whether there is truth in you. But if not, by the life of Pharaoh, you are certainly spies!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:18 -

Now Joseph said to them on the third day, “Do this and live, for I fear God:

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:19 - if you are honest men, let one of your brothers be confined in [fn]your prison; but as for the rest of you, go, carry grain for the famine of your households,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:20 - and bring your youngest brother to me, so that your words may be verified, and you will not die.” And they did so.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:22 - Reuben answered them, saying, “Did I not tell [fn]you, ‘Do not sin against the boy'; and you would not listen? [fn]Now justice for his blood is required.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:23 - They did not know, however, that Joseph understood, for there was an interpreter between them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:24 - Then he turned away from them and wept. But when he returned to them and spoke to them, he took Simeon from them and bound him before their eyes.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:25 - Then Joseph gave orders to fill their bags with grain, but also to return every man's money in his sack, and to give them provisions for the journey. And that is what was done for them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:27 - But when one of them opened his sack to give his donkey feed at the overnight campsite, he saw his money; and behold, it was in the opening of his sack!
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:29 -

When they came to their father Jacob in the land of Canaan, they told him everything that had happened to them, saying,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:31 - “But we said to him, ‘We are honest men; we are not spies.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:32 - ‘We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no longer alive, and the youngest is with our father today in the land of Canaan.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:33 - “But the man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I will know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me and take grain for the famine of your households, and go.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:35 -

Now it came about, as they were emptying their sacks, that behold, every man's bag of money was in his sack; and when they and their father saw their bags of money, they were afraid.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:36 - And their father Jacob said to them, “You have deprived me of my sons: Joseph is gone, and Simeon is gone, and now you would take Benjamin; all these things are against me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:37 - Then Reuben spoke to his father, saying, “You may put my two sons to death if I do not bring him back to you; put him in my [fn]care, and I will return him to you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:38 - But [fn]Jacob said, “My son shall not go down with you; for his brother is dead, and he alone is left. If harm should happen to him on the journey [fn]you are taking, then you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:1 -

Now the famine was severe in the land.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:2 - So it came about, when they had finished eating the grain which they had brought from Egypt, that their father said to them, “Go back, buy us a little food.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:3 - Judah spoke to him, however, saying, “The man sternly warned [fn]us, ‘You shall not see my face unless your brother is with you.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:5 - “But if you do not send him, we will not go down; for the man said to us, ‘You will not see my face unless your brother is with you.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:6 - Then Israel said, “Why did you treat me so badly, [fn]by telling the man whether you still had another brother?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:7 - But they said, “The man specifically asked about us and our relatives, saying, ‘Is your father still alive? Have you another brother?' So we [fn]answered his questions. Could we possibly know that he would say, ‘Bring your brother down'?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:8 - So Judah said to his father Israel, “Send the boy with me and we will arise and go, so that we may live and not die, we as well as you and our little ones.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:9 - “I myself will take responsibility for him! You may demand him back from [fn]me. If I do not bring him back to you and present him to you, then [fn]you can let me take the blame forever.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:11 -

Then their father Israel said to them, “If it must be so, then do this: take some of the best products of the land in your [fn]bags, and carry down to the man as a gift, a little balsam and a little honey, labdanum resin and [fn]myrrh, pistachio nuts and almonds.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:14 - and may [fn]God Almighty grant you compassion in the sight of the man, so that he will release to you your other brother and Benjamin. And as for me, if I am bereaved of my sons, I am bereaved!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:15 - So the men took this gift, and they took double the money in their hand, and Benjamin; then they set out and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:16 -

When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to his house steward, “Bring the men into the house, and slaughter an animal and make preparations; for the men are to dine with me at noon.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:17 - So the man did as Joseph said, and [fn]brought the men to Joseph's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:18 - Now the men were afraid, because they were brought to Joseph's house; and they said, “It is because of the money that was returned in our sacks the first time that we are being brought in, so that he may [fn]attack us and [fn]overpower us, and take us as slaves with our donkeys.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:19 - So they approached Joseph's house steward, and spoke to him at the entrance of the house,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:21 - and it happened when we came to the campsite, that we opened our sacks, and behold, each man's money was in the opening of his sack, our money in [fn]full. So we have brought it back in our hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:23 - But he said, “Peace be to you, do not be afraid. Your God and the God of your father has given you treasure in your sacks; your [fn]money was in my possession.” Then he brought Simeon out to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:25 - So they prepared the gift [fn]for Joseph's arrival at noon; for they had heard that they were to eat [fn]a meal there.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:26 -

When Joseph came home, they brought into the house to him the gift which was in their hand, and they bowed down to the ground before him.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:27 - Then he asked them about their welfare, and said, “Is your old father well, of whom you spoke? Is he still alive?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:28 - And they said, “Your servant our father is well; he is still alive.” Then they bowed down again [fn]in homage.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:29 - And as he raised his eyes and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, he said, “Is this your youngest brother, of whom you spoke to me?” Then he said, “May God be gracious to you, my son.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:30 - Joseph then hurried out, for [fn]he was deeply stirred over his brother, and he looked for a place to weep; so he entered his chamber and wept there.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:33 - Now they [fn]were seated before him, from the firstborn according to his birthright to the youngest according to his youth, and the men looked at one another in astonishment.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:34 - Then he took portions to them from [fn]his own table, but Benjamin's portion was five times as much as any of theirs. So they drank freely with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:2 - “And put my cup, the silver cup, in the opening of the sack of the youngest, and his money for the grain.” And he did [fn]as Joseph had told him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:4 - They had just left the city, and were not far away, when Joseph said to his house steward, “Up, follow the men; and when you overtake them, say to them, ‘Why have you repaid evil for good?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:5 - ‘Is this not that from which my lord drinks, and which he indeed uses for divination? You have done wrong in doing this!'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:6 -

So [fn]he overtook them and spoke these words to them.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:7 - And they said to him, “Why does my lord say such words as these? Far be it from your servants to do such a thing!
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:9 - “With whomever of your servants it is found, he shall die, and we also shall be my lord's slaves.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:10 - So he said, “Now let it indeed be according to your words; he with whom it is found shall be my slave, but the rest of you shall be considered innocent.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:12 - And he searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest; and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:14 -

When Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, he was still there, and they fell down to the ground before him.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:15 - Joseph said to them, “What is this thing that you have done? Do you not know that a man who is like me can indeed practice divination?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:16 - So Judah said, “What can we say to my lord? What words can we speak? And how can we justify ourselves? God has found out the guilt of your servants; behold, we are my lord's slaves, both we and the one in whose [fn]possession the cup has been found.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:17 - But he said, “Far be it from me to do this. The man in whose [fn]possession the cup has been found, he shall be my slave; but as for you, go up in peace to your father.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:18 -

Then Judah approached him and said, “Oh my lord, may your servant please speak a word in my lord's ears, and [fn]do not be angry with your servant; for you are equal to Pharaoh.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:20 - “And we said to my lord, ‘We have an old father and a little boy born in our father's old age. Now his brother is dead, so he alone is left of his mother, and his father loves him.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:21 - “Then you said to your servants, ‘Bring him down to me so that I may set my eyes on him.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:22 - “But we said to my lord, ‘The boy cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, [fn]his father would die.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:23 - “You said to your servants, however, ‘Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you will not see my face again.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:24 - “So it came about when we went up to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:25 - “And our father said, ‘Go back, buy us a little food.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:26 - “But we said, ‘We cannot go down. If our youngest brother is with us, then we will go down; for we cannot see the man's face unless our youngest brother is with us.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:27 - “Then your servant my father said to us, ‘You know that my wife bore me two sons;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:30 - “So now, when I come to your servant, my father, and the boy is not with us—since [fn]our father's life is so attached to the boy's life
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:31 - when he sees that the boy is not with us, he will die. So your servants will bring the gray hair of your servant, our father, down to Sheol in sorrow.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:33 - “So now, please let your servant remain as a slave to my lord instead of the boy, and let the boy go up with his brothers.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:2 - Then he [fn]wept so loudly that the Egyptians heard it, and the household of Pharaoh heard about it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:3 - And Joseph said to his brothers, “I am Joseph! Is my father still alive?” But his brothers could not answer him, for they were terrified in his presence.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:4 -

Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Please come [fn]closer to me.” And they came [fn]closer. And he said, “I am your brother Joseph, whom you sold to Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:16 -

Now when the [fn]news was heard in Pharaoh's house [fn]that Joseph's brothers had come, it [fn]pleased Pharaoh and his servants.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:17 - Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Say to your brothers, ‘Do this: load your livestock and [fn]go to the land of Canaan,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:19 - “Now you are ordered, ‘Do this: [fn]take wagons from the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives, and bring your father and come.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:21 -

Then the sons of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them wagons according to the [fn]command of Pharaoh, and gave them provisions for the journey.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:22 - To [fn]each of them he gave changes of garments, but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of garments.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:24 -

So he sent his brothers away, and [fn]as they departed, he said to them, “Do not [fn]quarrel on the journey.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:27 - When they told him all the words of Joseph that he had spoken to them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him, then the spirit of their father Jacob revived.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:28 - Then Israel said, “It is enough; my son Joseph is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:1 -

So Israel set out with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:2 - And God spoke to Israel [fn]in visions of the night and said, “Jacob, Jacob.” And he said, “Here I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:5 -

Then Jacob left Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried their father Jacob and their little ones and their wives in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:8 -

Now these are the names of the sons of Israel who went to Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:9 - And the sons of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:10 - And the sons of Simeon: [fn]Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, [fn]Jachin, [fn]Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanite woman.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:11 - And the sons of Levi: [fn]Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:12 - And the sons of Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan). And the sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:13 - And the sons of Issachar: Tola, [fn]Puvvah, [fn]Iob, and Shimron.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:14 - And the sons of Zebulun: Sered, Elon, and Jahleel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:16 - And the sons of Gad: [fn]Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, [fn]Ezbon, Eri, [fn]Arodi, and Areli.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:17 - And the sons of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, and their sister Serah. And the sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:19 - The sons of Jacob's wife Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:20 - Now to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, bore to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:21 - And the sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, [fn]Ehi, Rosh, [fn]Muppim, [fn]Huppim, and Ard.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:23 - And the sons of Dan: [fn]Hushim.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:26 - All the people belonging to Jacob, who came to Egypt, [fn]his direct descendants, not including the wives of Jacob's sons, were sixty-six persons in all,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:27 - and the sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were [fn]two; all the people of the house of Jacob, who came to Egypt, were seventy.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:28 -

Now Jacob sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph, to [fn]guide him to Goshen; and they came into the land of Goshen.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:29 - And Joseph [fn]prepared his chariot and went up to Goshen to meet his father Israel; as soon as he appeared to him, Joseph threw himself on his neck and wept on his neck a long time.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:31 - But Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, “I will go up and tell Pharaoh, and will say to him, ‘My brothers and my father's household, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:32 - and the men are shepherds, for they have been [fn]keepers of livestock; and they have brought their flocks and their herds and all that they have.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:1 -

Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, “My father and my brothers and their flocks and their herds and all that they have, have come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:2 - And he took five men from among his brothers and presented them to Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:3 - Then Pharaoh said to his brothers, “What is your occupation?” So they said to Pharaoh, “Your servants are shepherds, both we and our fathers.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:4 - They also said to Pharaoh, “We have come to reside in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants' flocks, for the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now, therefore, please let your servants live in the land of Goshen.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:5 - Then Pharaoh said to [fn]Joseph, “Your father and your brothers have come to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:7 -

Then Joseph brought his father Jacob and [fn]presented him to Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:8 - And Pharaoh said to Jacob, “How many [fn]years have you lived?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:13 -

Now there was no [fn]food in all the land, because the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished because of the famine.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:14 - And Joseph collected all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan in payment for the grain which they bought, and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:15 - When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph saying, “Give us [fn]food, for why should we die in your presence? For our money is [fn]gone.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:16 - Then Joseph said, “Give up your livestock, and I will give you food for your livestock, since your money is [fn]gone.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:17 - So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them [fn]food in exchange for the horses and the [fn]flocks and the herds and the donkeys; and he [fn]fed them with [fn]food in exchange for all their livestock [fn]that year.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:18 - But when that year ended, they came to him the [fn]next year and said to him, “We will not hide from my lord the fact that our money is all spent, and the [fn]livestock are my lord's. There is nothing left [fn]for my lord except our bodies and our lands.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:23 - Then Joseph said to the people, “Behold, today I have purchased you and your land for Pharaoh; now, here is seed for you, and you may sow the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:24 - [fn]At the harvest you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and [fn]four-fifths shall be your own for seed of the field and for your food, and for those of your households and as food for your little ones.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:27 -

Now Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in [fn]Goshen, and they acquired property in it and were fruitful and became very numerous.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:28 - And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt for seventeen years; so the [fn]length of Jacob's life was 147 years.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:29 -

When [fn]the time for Israel to die drew near, he called his son Joseph and said to him, “Please, if I have found favor in your sight, place your hand under my thigh now and deal with me in kindness and [fn]faithfulness: please do not bury me in Egypt,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:30 - but when I [fn]lie down with my fathers, you shall carry me out of Egypt and bury me in their burial place.” And he said, “I will do as you have said.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:1 -

Now it came about after these things that [fn]Joseph was told, “Behold, your father is sick.” So he took his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim with him.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:2 - When [fn]it was told to Jacob, “Behold, your son Joseph has come to you,” Israel [fn]collected his strength and sat [fn]up in the bed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:6 - “But your children that you have fathered after them shall be yours; they shall be called by the [fn]names of their brothers in their inheritance.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:7 - “Now as for me, when I came from Paddan, Rachel died, [fn]to my sorrow, in the land of Canaan on the journey, when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath. I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:8 -

When Israel saw Joseph's sons, he said, “Who are these?”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:9 - And Joseph said to his father, “They are my sons, whom God has given me here.” So he said, “Bring them to me, please, so that I may bless them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:10 - Now the eyes of Israel were so [fn]dim from age that he could not see. And [fn]Joseph brought them close to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:13 - And Joseph took them both, Ephraim with his right hand toward Israel's left, and Manasseh with his left hand toward Israel's right, and brought them close to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:14 - But Israel reached out his right hand and placed it on the head of Ephraim, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh's head, crossing his hands, although Manasseh was the firstborn.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:17 -

When Joseph saw that his father placed his right hand on Ephraim's head, it displeased him; and he grasped his father's hand to move it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:18 - And Joseph said to his father, “Not so, my father, for this one is the firstborn. Place your right hand on his head.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:21 - Then Israel said to Joseph, “Behold, I am about to die, but God will be with you, and bring you back to the land of your fathers.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:22 - “And I give you one [fn]portion more than your brothers, which I took from the hand of the Amorite with my sword and my bow.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:1 -

Then Jacob summoned his sons and said, “Assemble yourselves, so that I may tell you what will happen to you in the [fn]days to come.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:19 -

“As for Gad, a band of raiders shall attack him,

But he will attack at their [fn]heels.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:4 -

When the days of [fn]mourning for him were past, Joseph spoke to the household of Pharaoh, saying, “If now I have found favor in your sight, please speak [fn]to Pharaoh, saying,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:15 -

When Joseph's brothers had seen that their father was dead, they said, “What if Joseph holds a grudge against us and pays us back in full for all the wrong which we did to him!”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:20 - “As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good in order to bring about [fn]this present result, to keep many people alive.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:24 - Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die, but God will assuredly [fn]take care of you and bring you up from this land to the land which He [fn]promised on oath to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:5 - [fn]All the people who descended from Jacob were seventy [fn]people, but Joseph was already in Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:6 - And Joseph died, and all his brothers and all that generation.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:7 - But the sons of Israel were fruitful and [fn]increased greatly, and multiplied, and became exceedingly [fn]mighty, so that the land was filled with them.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:8 -

Now a new king arose over Egypt, who did not know Joseph.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:9 - And he said to his people, “Behold, the people of the sons of Israel are [fn]too many and too mighty for us.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:12 - But the more they oppressed them, the more they multiplied and the more they [fn]spread out, so that they dreaded the sons of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:16 - and he said, “When you are helping the Hebrew women to give birth and see them upon the birthstool, if it is a son, then you shall put him to death; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:17 - But the midwives [fn]feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt had [fn]commanded them, but let the boys live.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:18 - So the king of Egypt called for the midwives and said to them, “Why have you done this thing, and let the boys live?”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:19 - The midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife [fn]can get to them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:20 - So God was good to the midwives, and the people multiplied, and became very [fn]mighty.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:22 - Then Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, “Every son who is born, [fn]you are to throw into the Nile, but every daughter, you are to keep alive.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:2 - And the woman conceived and gave birth to a son; and when she saw [fn]that he was [fn]beautiful, she hid him for three months.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:3 - But when she could no longer hide him, she got him a papyrus [fn]basket and covered it with tar and pitch. Then she put the child in it and set it among the reeds by the bank of the Nile.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:5 -

Now the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the Nile, with her female attendants walking alongside the Nile; and she saw the [fn]basket among the reeds and sent her slave woman, and she brought it to her.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:6 - When she opened it, she [fn]saw the child, and behold, the boy was crying. And she had pity on him and said, “This is one of the Hebrews' children.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:8 - Pharaoh's daughter said to her, “Go ahead.” So the girl went and called the child's mother.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:9 - Then Pharaoh's daughter said to her, “Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” So the woman took the child and nursed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:10 - And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter and he became her son. And she named him [fn]Moses, and said, “Because I drew him out of the water.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:11 -

Now it came about in those days, when Moses had grown up, that he went out to his [fn]fellow Hebrews and looked at their [fn]hard labors; and he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his [fn]fellow Hebrews.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:12 - So he [fn]looked this way and that, and when he saw that there was no one around, he struck and killed the Egyptian, and hid [fn]his body in the sand.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:13 - Now he went out the next day, and behold, two Hebrews were [fn]fighting with each other; and he said to the [fn]offender, “Why are you striking your companion?”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:14 - But he said, “Who made you a [fn]ruler and a judge over us? Do you [fn]intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?” Then Moses was afraid and said, “Surely the matter has become known!”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:15 - When Pharaoh heard about this matter, he tried to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the presence of Pharaoh and [fn]settled in the land of Midian, and he sat down by a well.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:16 -

Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters; and they came to draw water and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:17 - Then the shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses stood up and helped them and watered their flock.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:18 - When they came to their father Reuel, he said, “Why have you come back so soon today?”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:19 - They said, “An Egyptian saved us from [fn]the shepherds, and what is more, he even drew water for us and watered the flock.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:20 - So he said to his daughters, “Where is he then? Why is it that you have left the man behind? Invite him [fn]to have something to eat.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:21 - And Moses was willing to live with the man. And he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:22 - Then she gave birth to a son, and he named him [fn]Gershom, for he said, “I have been a stranger in a foreign land.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:23 -

Now it came about in the course of those many days that the king of Egypt died. And the sons of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry for help because of their bondage ascended to God.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:2 - Then the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a blazing fire from the midst of [fn]a bush; and he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, yet the bush was not being consumed.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:3 - So Moses said, “I must turn aside and see this [fn]marvelous sight, why the bush is not burning up!”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:4 - When the LORD saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, “Moses, Moses!” And he said, “Here I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:6 - And He said, “I am the God of your father—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” Then Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:7 -

And the LORD said, “I have certainly seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their outcry because of their taskmasters, for I am aware of their sufferings.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:12 - And He said, “Assuredly I will be with you, and this shall be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall [fn]worship God at this mountain.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:19 - “But I know that the king of Egypt will not permit you to go, except [fn]under compulsion.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:21 - “I will grant this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians; and it shall be that when you go, you will not go empty-handed.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:1 -

Then Moses said, “What if they will not believe me or listen [fn]to what I say? For they may say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.'”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:2 - The LORD said to him, “What is that in your hand?” And he said, “A staff.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:6 -

The LORD furthermore said to him, “Now put your hand inside the fold of your robe.” So he put his hand inside the fold, and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous like snow.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:8 - “So if they will not believe you nor [fn]pay attention to the [fn]evidence of the first [fn]sign, they may believe the [fn]evidence of the last [fn]sign.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:10 -

Then Moses said to the LORD, “Please, Lord, I have never been [fn]eloquent, neither [fn]recently nor in time past, nor since You have spoken to Your servant; for I am [fn]slow of speech and [fn]slow of tongue.”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:11 - But the LORD said to him, “Who has made the human mouth? Or who makes anyone unable to speak or deaf, or able to see or blind? Is it not I, the LORD?
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:16 - “He shall speak for you to the people; and he will be as a mouth for you and you will be as God to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:18 -

Then Moses departed and returned to his father-in-law [fn]Jethro, and said to him, “Please, let me go, that I may return to my brothers who are in Egypt, and see if they are still alive.” And Jethro said to Moses, “Go in peace.”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:19 - Now the LORD said to Moses in Midian, “Go [fn]back to Egypt, for all the men who were seeking your life are dead.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:20 - So Moses took his wife and his sons and mounted them on a donkey, and returned to the land of Egypt. Moses also took the staff of God in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:21 -

And the LORD said to Moses, “When you go [fn]back to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders which I have put in your [fn]power; but I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:22 - “Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘This is what the LORD says: “Israel is My son, My firstborn.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:24 -

But it came about at the overnight encampment on the way, that the LORD met [fn]Moses, and sought to put him to death.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:27 -

Now the LORD said to Aaron, “Go to meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and met him at the mountain of God and kissed him.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:29 - Then Moses and Aaron went and assembled all the elders of the sons of Israel;
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:31 - So the people believed; and when they heard that the LORD [fn]was concerned about the sons of Israel and that He had seen their affliction, they bowed low and worshiped.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:6 - So the same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters over the people and their foremen, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:10 -

So the taskmasters of the people and their foremen went out and spoke to the people, saying, “This is what Pharaoh says: ‘I am not going to give you any straw.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:13 - And the taskmasters pressed them, saying, “Complete your [fn]work quota, [fn]your daily amount, just as when [fn]you had straw.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:15 -

Then the foremen of the sons of Israel came and cried out to Pharaoh, saying, “Why do you deal this way with your servants?

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:19 - The foremen of the sons of Israel saw that they were in trouble, [fn]since they were told, “You must not reduce [fn]your daily amount of bricks.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:20 - When they left Pharaoh's presence, they met Moses and Aaron as they were [fn]waiting for them.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:22 -

Then Moses returned to the LORD and said, “Lord, why have You brought harm to this people? Why did You ever send me?

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:2 -

God spoke further to Moses and said to him, “I am the LORD;

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:9 - So Moses said this to the sons of Israel, but they did not listen to Moses on account of their [fn]despondency and cruel bondage.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:10 -

Now the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:12 - But Moses spoke before the LORD, saying, “Behold, the sons of Israel have not listened to me; how then will Pharaoh listen to me, as I am [fn]unskilled in speech?”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:13 - Nevertheless, the LORD spoke to Moses and to Aaron and gave them a command concerning the sons of Israel and Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the sons of Israel out of the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:20 - Now Amram [fn]married his father's sister Jochebed, and she bore him Aaron and Moses; and the [fn]length of Amram's life was 137 years.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:23 - Aaron [fn]married Elisheba, the daughter of Amminadab, the sister of Nahshon, and she bore him Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:24 - And the sons of Korah: Assir, Elkanah, and [fn]Abiasaph; these are the families of the Korahites.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:2 - “As for you, you shall speak all that I command you, and your brother Aaron shall speak to Pharaoh that he let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:3 - “But I will harden Pharaoh's heart, so that I may multiply My signs and My wonders in the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:6 - So Moses and Aaron did this; as the LORD commanded them, so they did.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:7 - And Moses was eighty years old and Aaron [fn]eighty-three, when they spoke to Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:10 - So Moses and Aaron came to Pharaoh, and so they did, just as the LORD had commanded; and Aaron threw his staff down before Pharaoh and [fn]his servants, and it turned into a serpent.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:11 - Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers, and they too, the soothsayer priests of Egypt, did the same with their secret arts.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:14 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh's heart is [fn]stubborn; he refuses to let the people go.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:19 - Then the LORD said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and extend your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their [fn]streams, over their pools, and over all their reservoirs of water, so that they may become blood; and there will be blood through all the land of Egypt, both in containers of wood and in containers of stone.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:22 - But the soothsayer priests of Egypt did the same with their secret arts; and Pharaoh's heart was [fn]hardened, and he did not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:23 - Then Pharaoh turned and went into his house [fn]with no concern even for this.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:24 - So all the Egyptians dug around the Nile for water to drink, because they could not drink from the water of the Nile.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:1 -

[fn]Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and say to him, ‘This is what the LORD says: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:2 - “But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I am going to strike your entire territory with frogs.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:5 - [fn]Then the LORD said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Extend your hand with your staff over the rivers, over the [fn]streams, and over the pools, and make frogs come up on the land of Egypt.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:7 - However, the soothsayer priests did the same with their secret arts, [fn]making frogs come up on the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:9 - And Moses said to Pharaoh, “[fn]The honor is yours to tell me: when shall I plead for you and your servants and your people, [fn]that the frogs be destroyed from you and your houses, that they be left only in the Nile?”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:10 -

Then he said, “Tomorrow.” So he said, “May it be according to your word, so that you may know that there is no one like the LORD our God.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:12 - Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh, and Moses cried out to the LORD concerning the frogs which He had [fn]inflicted upon Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:13 - The LORD did according to the word of Moses, and the frogs died out of the houses, the courtyards, and the fields.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:15 - But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he [fn]hardened his heart and did not listen to them, just as the LORD had said.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:16 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Extend your staff and strike the dust of the earth, so that it may turn into [fn]gnats through all the land of Egypt.'”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:18 - The soothsayer priests tried with their secret arts to produce [fn]gnats, but they could not; so there were [fn]gnats on every person and animal.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:20 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Rise early in the morning and present yourself before Pharaoh, [fn]as he comes out to the water; and say to him, ‘This is what the LORD says: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:21 - “For if you are not going to let My people go, behold, I will send swarms of flies on you and on your servants and on your people, and into your houses; and the houses of the Egyptians will be full of swarms of flies, and also the ground on which they live.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:23 - “I will [fn]put a division between My people and your people. Tomorrow this sign will occur.”'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:24 - Then the LORD did so. And [fn]thick swarms of flies entered the house of Pharaoh and the houses of his servants, and the land was laid waste because of the swarms of flies in all the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:25 -

Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron and said, “Go, sacrifice to your God within the land.”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:29 - Then Moses said, “Behold, I am going to leave you, and I will plead with the LORD that the swarms of flies may depart from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people tomorrow; only do not let Pharaoh deal deceitfully again in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:30 -

So Moses left Pharaoh and pleaded with the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:31 - The LORD did [fn]as Moses asked, and removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people; not one remained.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:1 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh and speak to him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews says: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:6 - So the LORD did this thing on the next day, and all the livestock of Egypt died; but not one of the livestock of the sons of Israel died.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:7 - And Pharaoh sent men, and they learned that, behold, not even one of the livestock of Israel was dead. But the heart of Pharaoh was [fn]hardened, and he did not let the people go.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:8 -

Then the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “Take for yourselves handfuls of soot from a kiln, and Moses shall toss it toward the sky in the sight of Pharaoh.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:12 - But the LORD [fn]hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not listen to them, just as the LORD had spoken to Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:13 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh and say to him, ‘This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews says: “Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:19 - “So now, send word, bring your livestock and whatever you have in the field to safety. Every person and animal that is found in the field and is not brought home, when the hail comes down on them, will die.”'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:21 - but everyone who [fn]did not pay regard to the word of the LORD [fn]left his servants and his livestock in the field.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:22 -

Now the LORD said to Moses, “Reach out with your hand toward the sky, so that [fn]hail may fall on all the land of Egypt, on every person and animal, and on every plant of the field, throughout the land of Egypt.”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:23 - So Moses reached out with his staff toward the sky, and the LORD [fn]sent [fn]thunder and hail, and fire ran down to the earth. And the LORD rained hail on the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:24 - So there was hail, and fire flashing intermittently in the midst of the hail, which was very heavy, such as had not occurred in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:25 - The hail struck everything that was in the field through all the land of Egypt, from people to animals; the hail also struck every plant of the field, and shattered every tree of the field.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:27 -

Then Pharaoh [fn]sent for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “I have sinned this time; the LORD is the righteous one, and I and my people are the wicked ones.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:29 - Moses said to him, “As soon as I go out of the city, I will spread out my [fn]hands to the LORD; the [fn]thunder will cease and there will no longer be hail, so that you may know that the earth is the LORD'S.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:31 - (Now the flax and the barley were [fn]ruined, for the barley was in the ear and the flax was in bud.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:32 - But the wheat and the spelt were not [fn]ruined, for they ripen late.)
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:33 - So Moses left the city from his meeting with Pharaoh, and spread out his [fn]hands to the LORD; and the [fn]thunder and the hail stopped, and rain [fn]no longer poured on the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:34 - But when Pharaoh saw that the rain and the hail and the [fn]thunder had stopped, he sinned again and [fn]hardened his heart, he and his servants.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:1 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Go to Pharaoh, for I have [fn]hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, so that I may [fn]perform these signs of Mine [fn]among them,

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:3 -

So Moses and Aaron went to Pharaoh and said to him, “This is what the LORD, the God of the Hebrews says: ‘How long will you refuse to humble yourself before Me? Let My people go, so that they may serve Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:4 - ‘For if you refuse to let My people go, behold, tomorrow I will bring locusts into your territory.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:8 - So Moses and Aaron were brought back to Pharaoh, and he said to them, “Go, serve the LORD your God! [fn]Who specifically are the ones who are going?”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:11 - “Not so! Go now, but only the men among you, and serve the LORD, since [fn]that is what you desire.” So they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:12 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Reach out with your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, so that they may come up on the land of Egypt and eat every plant of the land, everything that the hail has left.”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:16 - Then Pharaoh hurriedly called for Moses and Aaron, and he said, “I have sinned against the LORD your God and against you.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:18 - Then he left Pharaoh and pleaded with the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:21 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Reach out with your hand toward the sky, so that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, even a darkness which may be felt.”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:22 - So Moses reached out with his hand toward the sky, and there was thick darkness in all the land of Egypt for three days.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:23 - They did not see one another, nor did anyone rise from his place for three days, but all the sons of Israel had light in their dwellings.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:26 - “Therefore, our livestock too shall go with us; not a hoof shall be left behind, for we shall take some of them to serve the LORD our God. And until we arrive there, we ourselves do not know with what we shall serve the LORD.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:27 - But the LORD [fn]hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he was not willing to let them go.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:29 - Moses said, “You have spoken correctly; I shall never see your face again!”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 11:1 -

Now the LORD said to Moses, “One more plague I will bring on Pharaoh and on Egypt; after that he will let you go from here. When he lets you go, he will assuredly drive you out from here completely.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 11:3 - And the LORD gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians. Furthermore, the man Moses himself was [fn]greatly esteemed in the land of Egypt, both in the sight of Pharaoh's servants and in the sight of the people.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 11:8 - “And all these servants of yours will come down to me and bow themselves [fn]before me, saying, ‘Go out, you and all the people who [fn]follow you,' and after that I will go out.” And he left Pharaoh in the heat of anger.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 11:9 -

Then the LORD said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you, so that My wonders will be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 11:10 - So Moses and Aaron performed all these wonders before Pharaoh; yet the LORD [fn]hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the sons of Israel go out of his land.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:1 -

Now the LORD said to Moses and Aaron in the land of [fn]Egypt,

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:4 - ‘Now if the household is too small for a [fn]lamb, then he and his neighbor nearest to his house are to take one according to the [fn]number of persons in them; in proportion to [fn]what each one should eat, you are to [fn]divide the lamb.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:10 - ‘And you shall not leave any of it over until morning, but whatever is left of it until morning, you shall completely burn with fire.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:11 - ‘Now you shall eat it in this way: with your garment [fn]belted around your waist, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in a hurry—it is the LORD'S Passover.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:15 - ‘For seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, but on the first day you shall remove dough with yeast from your houses; for whoever eats anything with yeast from the first day until the seventh day, that [fn]person shall be cut off from Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:20 - ‘You shall not eat anything with yeast; in all your dwellings you shall eat unleavened bread.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:21 -

On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was cheerful with wine, he ordered Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Carkas, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus,

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:7 - He was the guardian to Hadassah, that is Esther, his uncle's daughter, for she had no father or mother. Now the young woman was beautiful of form and [fn]face, and when her father and her mother died, Mordecai took her as his own daughter.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:11 - And every day Mordecai walked back and forth in front of the courtyard of the harem to learn how Esther was and what was happening to her.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:12 -

Now when the turn came for each young woman to go in to King Ahasuerus, after the end of her twelve months under the regulations for the women—for the days of their beauty treatment were completed as follows: six months with oil of myrrh and six months with balsam oil and the cosmetics for women

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:15 -

Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai who had taken her as his daughter, came to go in to the king, she did not request anything except what Hegai, the king's eunuch who was in charge of the women, [fn]advised. And Esther was finding favor in the eyes of all who saw her.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:19 -

Now when the virgins were gathered together for the second time, then Mordecai was sitting at the king's gate.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:20 - Esther still had not revealed her relatives or her people, just as Mordecai had instructed her; for Esther did [fn]what Mordecai told her just as she had when under his care.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:23 - Then when the plot was investigated and found to be so, they were both hanged on a wooden gallows; and it was written in the Book of the Chronicles in the king's presence.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:1 -

After these events King Ahasuerus honored Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and promoted him and [fn]established his authority over all the officials who were with him.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:2 - All the king's servants who were at the king's gate bowed down and paid [fn]homage to Haman; for so the king had commanded regarding him. But Mordecai neither bowed down nor paid [fn]homage.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:8 - Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, “There is a certain people scattered and dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom; their laws are different from those of all other people and they do not [fn]comply with the king's laws, so it is not in the king's interest to let them remain.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:11 - And the king said to Haman, “The silver is [fn]yours, and the people also, to do with them as you please.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:14 - A copy of the edict to be [fn]issued as law in every province was published to all the peoples so that they would be ready for this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:15 - The couriers went out, speeded by the king's [fn]order while the decree was [fn]issued at the citadel in Susa; and while the king and Haman sat down to drink, the city of Susa was agitated.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:1 -

When Mordecai learned of everything that had been done, [fn]he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the midst of the city and wailed loudly and bitterly.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:4 -

Then Esther's attendants and her eunuchs came and informed her, and the queen was seized by great fear. And she sent garments to clothe Mordecai so that he would remove his sackcloth from him, but he did not accept them.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:5 - Then Esther summoned Hathach from the king's eunuchs, whom [fn]the king had appointed to attend her, and ordered him to go to Mordecai to learn what this mourning was and why it was happening.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:7 - Mordecai told him everything that had happened to him, and the exact amount of money that Haman had promised to pay to the king's treasuries for the elimination of the Jews.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:9 -

So Hathach came back and reported Mordecai's words to Esther.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:10 - Then Esther spoke to Hathach and ordered him to reply to Mordecai:
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:14 - “For if you keep silent at this time, liberation and rescue will arise for the Jews from another place, and you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:16 - “Go, gather all the Jews who are found in Susa, and fast for me; do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my attendants also will fast in the same way. And then I will go in to the king, which is not in accordance with the law; and if I perish, I perish.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:1 -

Now it came about on the third day that Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner courtyard of the king's palace in front of the king's [fn]rooms, and the king was sitting on his royal throne in the [fn]throne room, opposite the entrance to the palace.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:2 - When the king saw Esther the queen standing in the courtyard, she obtained favor in his sight; and the king extended to Esther the golden scepter which was in his hand. So Esther approached and touched the top of the scepter.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:4 - Esther said, “If it pleases the king, may the king and Haman come this day to the banquet that I have prepared for him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:6 - [fn]As they drank their wine at the banquet, the king said to Esther, “What is your request, for it shall be granted to you. And what is your wish? Up to half of the kingdom it shall be done.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:9 -

Then Haman went out that day joyful and pleased of heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai at the king's gate and that he did not stand up or tremble before him, Haman was filled with anger against Mordecai.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:14 - Then Zeresh his wife and all his friends said to him, “Have a wooden gallows [fn]fifty cubits high made, and in the morning ask the king to have Mordecai hanged on it; then go joyfully with the king to the banquet.” And the [fn]advice pleased Haman, so he had the wooden gallows made.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:1 -

During that night [fn]the king could not sleep, so he gave an order to bring the book of records, the chronicles, and they were read before the king.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:2 - And it was found written what Mordecai had reported about Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's eunuchs who were doorkeepers, that they had sought to [fn]attack King Ahasuerus.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:3 - Then the king said, “What honor or dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?” And the king's servants who attended him said, “Nothing has been done for him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:4 - So the king said, “Who is in the courtyard?” Now Haman had just entered the outer courtyard of the king's palace in order to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the wooden gallows which he had prepared for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:6 - Haman then came in and the king said to him, “What is to be done for the man whom the king desires to honor?” And Haman said [fn]to himself, “Whom would the king desire to honor more than me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:7 - Therefore Haman said to the king, “For the man whom the king desires to honor,
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:10 -

Then the king said to Haman, “Quickly, take the robe and the horse just as you have said, and do so for Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting at the king's gate; do not fail to do anything of all that you have said.”

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:11 - So Haman took the robe and the horse, and dressed Mordecai, and led him on horseback through the city square, and proclaimed before him, “So it shall be done for the man whom the king desires to honor.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:12 -

Then Mordecai returned to the king's gate, while Haman hurried home, mourning, with his head covered.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:1 -

Now the king and Haman came to drink wine with Esther the queen.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:2 - And the king said to Esther on the second day also [fn]as they drank their wine at the banquet, “What is your request, Queen Esther? It shall be granted you. And what is your wish? Up to half of the kingdom it shall be done.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:5 - Then King Ahasuerus [fn]asked Queen Esther, “Who is he, and where is he, [fn]who would presume to do such a thing?
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:6 - And Esther said, “A foe and an enemy is this wicked Haman!” Then Haman became terrified before the king and queen.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:7 - The king then got up in his anger from [fn]drinking wine and went into the palace garden; but Haman stayed to beg for his life from Queen Esther, for he saw that harm had been determined against him by the king.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:8 - Now when the king returned from the palace garden into the [fn]place where they had been drinking wine, Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, “Will he even assault the queen with me in the house?” As the word went out of the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:9 - Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who stood before the king, said, “Indeed, behold, the wooden gallows standing at Haman's house [fn]fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai who spoke good in behalf of the king!” And the king said, “Hang him on it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:2 - Then the king took off his signet ring, which he had taken away from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:4 - And the king extended the golden scepter to Esther. So Esther got up and stood before the king.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:9 -

So the king's scribes were summoned at that time in the third month (that is, the month Sivan), on the twenty-third [fn]day; and it was written in accordance with everything that Mordecai commanded the Jews, the satraps, the governors, and the officials of the provinces which extended from India to [fn]Cush, 127 provinces, to every province according to its script, and to every people according to their language, as well as to the Jews according to their script and their language.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:10 - He wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus, and sealed it with the king's signet ring, and sent letters by couriers on horses, riding on royal relay horses, offspring of racing mares.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:13 - A copy of the edict to be [fn]issued as law in each and every province was published to all the peoples, so that the Jews would be ready for this day to avenge themselves on their enemies.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:14 - The couriers, hurrying and speeded by the king's command, left, riding on the royal relay horses; and the decree was issued at the citadel in Susa.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:15 -

Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in a royal robe of violet and white, with a large crown of gold and a garment of fine linen and purple; and the city of Susa shouted and rejoiced.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:16 - For the Jews there was light, joy, jubilation, and honor.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:12 - And the king said to Queen Esther, “The Jews have killed and eliminated five hundred men and the ten sons of Haman at the citadel in Susa. What have they done in the rest of the king's provinces! Now what is your request? It shall also be granted you. And what is your further wish? It shall also be done.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:16 -

Now the rest of the Jews who were in the king's provinces assembled, to defend their lives and [fn]rid themselves of their enemies, and to kill seventy-five thousand of those who hated them; but they did not lay their hands on the plunder.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:18 -

But the Jews who were in Susa assembled on the thirteenth and the fourteenth [fn]of the same month, and they rested on the fifteenth [fn]day and made it a day of feasting and rejoicing.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:19 - Therefore the Jews of the rural areas, who live in the rural towns, make the fourteenth day of the month Adar a [fn]holiday for rejoicing and feasting and sending portions of food to one another.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:20 -

Then Mordecai recorded these events, and he sent letters to all the Jews who were in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, both near and far,

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:25 - But when it came [fn]to the king's attention, he commanded by letter that his wicked scheme which he had devised against the Jews was to return on his own head, and that he and his sons were to be hanged on the wooden gallows.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:27 - the Jews established and [fn]made a custom for themselves, their [fn]descendants, and for all those who allied themselves with them, so that [fn]they would not fail to celebrate these two days according to their [fn]regulation and according to their appointed time annually.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:28 - So these days were to be remembered and celebrated throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and these days of Purim were not to [fn]be neglected by the Jews, or their memory [fn]fade from their [fn]descendants.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 10:1 -

Now King Ahasuerus imposed a tax on the land and the coastlands of the sea.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 10:3 - For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and in favor with his many kinsmen, one who sought the good of his people and one who spoke for the welfare of his entire [fn]nation.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:2 - Seven sons and three daughters were born to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:4 - His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one on his day, and they would send word and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:9 - Then Satan answered the [fn]LORD, “Does Job fear God for nothing?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:15 - and [fn]the Sabeans [fn]attacked and took them. They also [fn]killed the servants with the edge of the sword, and [fn]I alone have escaped to tell you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:17 - While he was still speaking, another came and said, “The Chaldeans formed three units and made a raid on the camels and took them, and [fn]killed the servants with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:19 - and behold, a great wind came from across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young people and they died, and I alone have escaped to tell you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:1 -

Again, there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and [fn]Satan also came among them to present himself before the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:3 - The LORD said to Satan, “Have you [fn]considered My servant Job? For there is no one like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man [fn]fearing God and turning away from evil. And he still holds firm to his integrity, although you incited Me against him to [fn]ruin him without cause.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:4 - Satan answered the LORD and said, “Skin for skin! Yes, all that a man has, he will give for his life.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:5 - “However, reach out with Your hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh; he will curse You to Your face!”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:6 - So the LORD said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your [fn]power, only spare his life.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:7 -

Then Satan went out from the presence of the LORD and struck Job with severe boils from the sole of his foot to the top of his head.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:9 -

Then his wife said to him, “Do you still hold firm your integrity? Curse God and die!”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:10 - But he said to her, “You are speaking as one of the foolish women speaks. Shall we actually accept good from God but not accept adversity?” Despite all this, Job did not sin with his lips.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:11 -

Now when Job's three friends heard about all this adversity that had come upon him, they came, each one from his own place—Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite; and they made an appointment together to come to sympathize with him and comfort him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:12 - When they [fn]looked from a distance and did not recognize him, they raised their voices and wept. And each of them tore his robe, and they threw dust over their heads toward the sky.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:5 -

“May darkness and black gloom claim it;

May a cloud settle on it;

May the blackness of the day terrify it.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:11 -

“Why did I not die [fn]at birth,

Come out of the womb and pass away?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:12 -

“Why were the knees there in front of me,

And why the breasts, that I would nurse?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:13 -

“For now I would have lain down and been quiet;

I would have slept then, I would have been at rest,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:18 -

“The prisoners are at ease together;

They do not hear the voice of the taskmaster.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:20 -

“Why is light given to one burdened with grief,

And life to the bitter of soul,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:22 -

Who are filled with jubilation,

And rejoice when they find the grave?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:24 -

“For my groaning comes at the sight of my food,

And my cries pour out like water.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:1 -

Then Eliphaz the Temanite responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:2 -

“If one ventures a word with you, will you become impatient?

But who can refrain [fn]from speaking?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:5 -

“But now it comes to you, and you are impatient;

It touches you, and you are horrified.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:8 -

“According to what I have seen, those who [fn]plow wrongdoing

And those who sow trouble harvest it.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:9 -

“By the breath of God they perish,

And by the [fn]blast of His anger they come to an end.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:10 -

“The roaring of the lion and the voice of the fierce lion,

And the teeth of the young lions are broken out.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:11 -

“The lion perishes for lack of prey,

And the cubs of the lioness are scattered.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:13 -

“Amid disquieting thoughts from visions of the night,

When deep sleep falls on people,

‘He puts no trust even in His servants;

And He accuses His angels of error.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:19 -

‘How much more those who live in houses of clay,

Whose foundation is in the dust,

Who are crushed before the moth!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:2 -

“For irritation kills the fool,

And jealousy brings death to the simple.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:3 -

“I have seen the fool taking root,

And I cursed his home immediately.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:4 -

“His sons are far from safety,

They are also [fn]oppressed at the gate,

And there is no one to save them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:5 -

[fn]The hungry devour his harvest

And take it to a place of thorns,

And the [fn]schemer is eager for their wealth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:7 -

For man is born for trouble,

As sparks fly upward.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:8 -

“But as for me, I would seek God,

And I would make my plea before God,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:13 -

“He captures the wise by their own cleverness,

And the advice of the cunning is quickly thwarted.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:14 -

“By day they meet with darkness,

And grope at noon as in the night.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:15 -

“But He saves from the sword of their mouth,

And the poor from the hand of the strong.

“So the helpless has hope,

“Behold, happy is the person whom God disciplines,

So do not reject the discipline of [fn]the Almighty.

“In six troubles He will save you;

“In famine He will redeem you from death,

And in war, from the power of the sword.

“You will laugh at violence and hunger,

And you will not be afraid of [fn]wild animals.

“You will know that your tent is secure,

For you will visit your home and [fn]have nothing missing.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:25 -

“You will also know that your [fn]descendants will be many,

And your offspring as the grass of the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:26 -

“You will come to the grave at a ripe age,

Like the stacking of grain in its season.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:27 -

“Behold this; we have investigated it, and so it is.

Hear it, and know for yourself.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:1 -

Then Job responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:2 -

“Oh if only my grief were actually weighed

And laid in the balances together with my disaster!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:5 -

“Does the wild donkey bray over his grass,

Or does the ox low over his feed?

“Can something tasteless be eaten without salt,

Or is there any taste in the [fn]juice of an alkanet plant?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:9 -

Oh, that God would decide to crush me,

That He would let loose His hand and cut me off!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:13 -

“Is it that my help is not within me,

And that a good outcome is driven away from me?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:14 -

“For the despairing man there should be kindness from his friend;

So that he does not abandon the [fn]fear of the Almighty.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:18 -

“The [fn]paths of their course wind along,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:21 -

“Indeed, you have now become such,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:24 -

“Teach me, and I will be silent;

And show me how I have done wrong.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:27 -

“You would even cast lots for the orphans,

And barter over your friend.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:28 -

“Now please look at me,

And see if I am lying to your face.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:3 -

So I am allotted worthless months,

And nights of trouble are apportioned to me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:4 -

“When I lie down, I say,

‘When shall I arise?'

But the night continues,

And I am continually tossing until dawn.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:5 -

“My flesh is clothed with maggots and a crust of dirt,

My skin hardens and [fn]oozes.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:6 -

“My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle,

And they come to an end without hope.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:13 -

“If I say, ‘My couch will comfort me,

My bed will [fn]ease my complaint,'

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:15 -

So that my soul would choose suffocation,

Death rather than my [fn]pains.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:20 -

“Have I sinned? What have I done to You,

Watcher of mankind?

Why have You made me Your target,

So that I am a burden to myself?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:21 -

“Why then do You not forgive my wrongdoing

And take away my [fn]guilt?

For now I will lie down in the dust;

And You will search for me, but I will no longer exist.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:1 -

Then Bildad the Shuhite responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:5 -

“If you will search for God

And implore the compassion of [fn]the Almighty,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:7 -

“Though your beginning was insignificant,

Yet your end will increase greatly.

“Please inquire of past generations,

His confidence is fragile,

“He depends on his house, but it does not stand;

“His roots wrap around a rock pile,

“Behold, this is the joy of His way;

“He will yet fill your mouth with laughter,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:22 -

“Those who hate you will be clothed with shame,

And the tent of the wicked will no longer exist.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:1 -

Then Job responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:6 -

It is He who shakes the earth from its place,

And its pillars tremble;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:7 -

Who commands the sun [fn]not to shine,

And puts a seal on the stars;

“The earth is handed over to the wicked;

He covers the faces of its judges.

If it is not He, then who is it?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:25 -

“Now my days are swifter than a runner;

“Let Him remove His rod from me,

‘Is it [fn]right for You indeed to oppress,

‘Remember that You have made me as clay;

‘You have granted me life and [fn]goodness;

‘You renew Your witnesses against me

Then Zophar the Naamathite responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:8 -

They are as high as [fn]the heavens; what can you do?

Deeper than [fn]Sheol; what can you know?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:10 -

“If He passes by or apprehends people,

“For He knows false people,

If wrongdoing is in your hand, put it far away,

“Your [fn]life would [fn]be brighter than noonday;

“Then you would trust, because there is hope;

“You would lie down and none would disturb you,

“But the eyes of the wicked will fail,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:1 -

Then Job responded,

“The tents of the destroyers prosper,

“But just ask the animals, and have them teach you;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:15 -

“Behold, He restrains the waters, and they dry up;

And He sends them out, and they [fn]inundate the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:17 -

“He makes advisers walk [fn]barefoot

And makes fools of judges.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:19 -

“He makes priests walk [fn]barefoot,

And overthrows the secure ones.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:20 -

“He deprives the trusted ones of speech,

And takes away the discernment of the elders.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:21 -

“He pours contempt on nobles,

And loosens the belt of the strong.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:22 -

“He reveals mysteries from the darkness,

And brings the deep darkness into light.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:24 -

“He deprives the leaders of the earth's people of [fn]intelligence

And makes them wander in a pathless wasteland.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:25 -

“They grope in darkness with no light,

And He makes them stagger like a drunken person.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:3 -

“But I would speak to [fn]the Almighty,

And I desire to argue with God.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:5 -

“Oh that you would be completely silent,

And that it would become your wisdom!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:6 -

“Please hear my argument,

And give your attention to the contentions of my lips.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:7 -

“Will you speak what is unjust for God,

And speak what is deceitful for Him?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:8 -

“Will you show partiality for Him?

Will you contend for God?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:10 -

“He will certainly punish you

If you secretly show partiality.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:11 -

“Will His [fn]majesty not terrify you,

And the dread of Him fall upon you?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:12 -

“Your memorable sayings are proverbs of ashes,

Your defenses are defenses of clay.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:27 -

“You put my feet in the stocks

And watch all my paths;

You [fn]set a limit for the soles of my feet,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:2 -

“Like a flower he comes out and withers.

He also flees like a shadow and does not remain.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:5 -

“Since his days are determined,

The number of his months is with You;

And You have [fn]set his limits so that he cannot pass.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:8 -

“Though its roots grow old in the ground,

And its stump dies in the dry soil,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:9 -

At the scent of water it will flourish

And produce sprigs like a plant.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:10 -

“But a man dies and lies prostrate.

A person passes away, and where is he?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:11 -

As water [fn]evaporates from the sea,

And a river becomes parched and dried up,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:12 -

So a man lies down and does not rise.

Until the heavens no longer exist,

[fn]He will not awake nor be woken from [fn]his sleep.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:15 -

“You will call, and I will answer You;

You will long for the work of Your hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:21 -

“His sons achieve honor, but he does not know it;

Or they become insignificant, and he does not perceive it.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:22 -

“However, his [fn]body pains him,

And his soul mourns for himself.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:1 -

Then Eliphaz the Temanite responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:4 -

“Indeed, you do away with [fn]reverence,

And hinder meditation before God.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:6 -

“Your own mouth condemns you, and not I;

And your own lips testify against you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:8 -

“Do you hear the secret discussion of God,

And limit wisdom to yourself?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:13 -

That you can turn your spirit against God

And produce such words from your mouth?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:15 -

“Behold, He has no trust in His holy ones,

And the heavens are not pure in His sight;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:16 -

How much less one who is detestable and corrupt:

A person who drinks [fn]malice like water!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:20 -

“The wicked person writhes in pain all his days,

And the [fn]years reserved for the ruthless are numbered.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:21 -

[fn]Sounds of terror are in his ears;

While he is at peace the destroyer comes upon him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:23 -

“He wanders about for food, saying, ‘Where is it?'

He knows that a day of darkness is [fn]at hand.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:24 -

“Distress and anguish terrify him,

They overpower him like a king ready for the attack,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:25 -

Because he has reached out with his hand against God,

And is arrogant toward [fn]the Almighty.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:26 -

“He rushes [fn]headlong at Him

With his [fn]massive shield.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:28 -

“He has lived in desolate cities,

In houses no one would inhabit,

Which are destined to become [fn]ruins.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:30 -

“He will not [fn]escape from darkness;

The flame will dry up his shoot,

And he will go away by the breath of His mouth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:33 -

“He will drop off his unripe grape like the vine,

And will cast off his flower like the olive tree.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:34 -

“For the company of the godless is barren,

And fire consumes the tents of [fn]the corrupt.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:35 -

“They conceive [fn]harm and give birth to wrongdoing,

And their [fn]mind prepares deception.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:1 -

Then Job responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:4 -

“I too could speak like you,

If only [fn]I were in your place.

I could compose words against you

And shake my head at you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:5 -

Or I could strengthen you with my mouth,

And the condolence of my lips could lessen your pain.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:6 -

“If I speak, my pain is not lessened,

And if I refrain, what pain leaves me?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:7 -

“But now He has exhausted me;

You have laid waste all my group of loved ones.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:10 -

“They have gaped at me with their mouths,

They have [fn]slapped me on the cheek with contempt;

They have massed themselves against me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:11 -

“God hands me over to criminals,

And tosses me into the hands of the wicked.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:15 -

“I have sewed sackcloth over my skin,

And thrust my horn in the dust.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:16 -

“My face is flushed from weeping,

And deep darkness is on my eyelids,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:17 -

Although there is no violence in my hands,

And my prayer is pure.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:19 -

“Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven,

And my [fn]advocate is on high.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:20 -

“My friends are my scoffers;

My eye weeps to God,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:21 -

That one might plead for a man with God

As a son of man with his neighbor!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:22 -

“For when a few years are past,

I shall go the way of no return.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 17:1 -

“My spirit is broken, my days are extinguished,

The [fn]grave is ready for me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 17:6 -

“But He has made me a proverb among the people,

And I am [fn]one at whom people spit.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 17:8 -

“The upright will be appalled at this,

And the innocent will stir himself up against the godless.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 17:9 -

“Nevertheless the righteous will hold to his way,

And the one who has clean hands will grow stronger and stronger.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 17:10 -

“But come again all of [fn]you now,

For I do not find a wise man among you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 17:11 -

“My days are past, my plans are torn apart,

The wishes of my heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 17:13 -

“If I hope for [fn]Sheol as my home,

I [fn]make my bed in the darkness;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:1 -

Then Bildad the Shuhite responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:6 -

“The light in his tent is darkened,

And his lamp goes out above him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:7 -

“His [fn]vigorous stride is shortened,

And his own plan brings him down.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:8 -

“For he is thrown into the net by his own feet,

And he steps on the webbing.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:9 -

“A snare seizes him by the heel,

And a trap snaps shut on him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:11 -

“All around sudden terrors frighten him,

And harass him at every step.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:12 -

“His strength is famished,

And disaster is ready at his side.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:13 -

[fn]It devours parts of his skin,

The firstborn of death devours his [fn]limbs.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:14 -

“He is torn from [fn]the security of his tent,

And [fn]they march him before the king of terrors.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:20 -

“Those in the west are appalled at his [fn]fate,

And those in the east are seized with horror.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:21 -

“Certainly these are the dwellings of the wicked,

And this is the place of him who does not know God.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:1 -

Then Job responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:4 -

“Even if I have truly done wrong,

My error stays with me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:5 -

“If indeed you exalt yourselves against me

And prove my disgrace to me,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:6 -

Know then that God has wronged me

And has surrounded me with His net.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:9 -

“He has stripped my honor from me

And removed the crown from my head.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:10 -

“He breaks me down on every side, and I am gone;

And He has uprooted my hope like a tree.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:12 -

“His troops come together

And build up their [fn]way against me

And camp around my tent.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:13 -

“He has removed my brothers far from me,

And my acquaintances have completely turned away from me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:17 -

“My breath is offensive to my wife,

And I am loathsome to my own brothers.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:18 -

“Even young children despise me;

I stand up and they speak against me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:20 -

“My bone clings to my skin and my flesh,

And I have escaped only by the skin of my teeth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:22 -

“Why do you persecute me as God does,

And are not satisfied with my flesh?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:23 -

“Oh that my words were written!

Oh that they were recorded in a book!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:28 -

“If you say, ‘How shall we persecute him?'

And ‘[fn]What pretext for a case against him can we find?'

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:1 -

Then Zophar the Naamathite responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:5 -

That the rejoicing of the wicked is short,

And the joy of the godless momentary?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:6 -

“Though his arrogance [fn]reaches the heavens,

And his head touches the clouds,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:7 -

He perishes forever like his refuse;

Those who have seen him will say, ‘Where is he?'

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:8 -

“He flies away like a dream, and they cannot find him;

Like a vision of the night he is chased away.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:10 -

“His sons [fn]favor the poor,

And his hands give back his wealth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:16 -

“He sucks the poison of cobras;

The viper's tongue kills him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:19 -

“For he has oppressed and neglected the poor;

He has seized a house which he has not built.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:22 -

“In the fullness of his excess he will be cramped;

The hand of everyone who suffers will come against him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:25 -

“It is drawn and comes out of his back,

Even the flashing point from his gallbladder;

Terrors come upon him,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:26 -

Complete darkness is held in reserve for his treasures,

And unfanned fire will devour him;

It will consume the survivor in his tent.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:27 -

“The heavens will reveal his guilt,

And the earth will rise up against him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:1 -

Then Job responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:3 -

“Bear with me that I may speak;

Then after I have spoken, you may mock me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:7 -

“Why do the wicked still live,

Grow old, and also become very [fn]powerful?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:8 -

“Their [fn]descendants endure with them in their sight,

And their offspring before their eyes,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:9 -

Their houses are safe from fear,

And the [fn]rod of God is not on them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:10 -

“His ox mates [fn]without fail;

His cow calves and does not miscarry.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:11 -

“They send out their boys like the flock,

And their children dance.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:13 -

“They spend their days in prosperity,

And [fn]suddenly they go down to [fn]Sheol.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:14 -

“Yet they say to God, ‘Go away from us!

We do not even desire the knowledge of Your ways.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:16 -

“Behold, their prosperity is not in their hand;

The advice of the wicked is far from me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:17 -

“How often is the lamp of the wicked put out,

Or does their disaster fall on them?

Does [fn]God apportion destruction in His anger?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:18 -

“Are they as straw before the wind,

And like chaff which the storm carries away?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:20 -

“Let his own eyes see his destruction,

And let him drink of the wrath of [fn]the Almighty.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:22 -

“Can anyone teach God knowledge,

In that He judges those on high?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:23 -

“One dies in his full strength,

Being wholly undisturbed and at ease;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:24 -

His [fn]sides are filled with fat,

And the marrow of his bones is wet,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:25 -

While another dies with a bitter soul,

Never even [fn]tasting anything good.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:26 -

“Together they lie down in the dust,

And maggots cover them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:34 -

“So how dare you give me empty comfort?

For your answers remain nothing but falsehood!”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:1 -

Then Eliphaz the Temanite responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:6 -

“For you have seized pledges from your brothers without cause,

And [fn]stripped people naked.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:8 -

“But the earth belongs to the powerful man,

And the one who is honorable dwells on it.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:9 -

“You have sent widows away empty,

And the [fn]strength of orphans has been crushed.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:11 -

Or darkness, so that you cannot see,

And a flood of water covers you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:12 -

“Is God not in the height of heaven?

Look also at the [fn]highest stars, how high they are!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:18 -

“Yet He filled their houses with good things;

But the advice of the wicked is far from me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:19 -

“The righteous see and are glad,

And the innocent mock them, saying,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:22 -

“Please receive [fn]instruction from His mouth,

And put His words in your heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:23 -

“If you return to [fn]the Almighty, you will be [fn]restored;

If you remove injustice far from your tent,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:25 -

Then [fn]the Almighty will be your [fn]gold

And abundant silver to you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:28 -

“You will also decide something, and it will be established for you;

And light will shine on your ways.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:1 -

Then Job responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:4 -

“I would present my case before Him

And fill my mouth with arguments.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:5 -

“I would learn the words which He would [fn]answer,

And perceive what He would tell me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:7 -

“There the upright would argue with Him;

And I [fn]would be free of my Judge forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:8 -

“Behold, I go forward but He is not there,

And backward, but I cannot perceive Him;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:11 -

“My foot has held on to His path;

I have kept His way and not turned aside.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:12 -

“I have not [fn]failed the command of His lips;

I have treasured the words of His mouth [fn]more than my [fn]necessary food.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:13 -

“But He is unique, and who can [fn]make Him turn?

Whatever His soul desires, He does it.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:15 -

“Therefore, I would be terrified at His presence;

When I consider this, I am frightened of Him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:16 -

It is God who has made my heart faint,

And the Almighty who has terrified me,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:1 -

“Why are [fn]times not stored up by the Almighty,

And why do those who know Him not see His [fn]days?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:2 -

People remove landmarks;

They seize and [fn]devour flocks.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:5 -

“Behold, like wild donkeys in the wilderness

They go out scavenging for food in their activity,

As [fn]bread for their children in the desert.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:6 -

“They harvest their feed in the field

And glean the vineyard of the wicked.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:7 -

“They spend the night naked, without clothing,

And have no covering against the cold.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:9 -

Others snatch an orphan from the breast,

And they seize it as a pledge against the poor.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:10 -

The poor move about naked without clothing,

And they carry sheaves, while going hungry.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:11 -

“Within the walls they produce oil;

They tread wine presses but go thirsty.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:12 -

“From the city people groan,

And the souls of the wounded cry for help;

Yet God does not pay attention to the offensiveness.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:13 -

[fn]Others have been with those who rebel against the light;

They do not want to know its ways

Nor stay in its paths.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:14 -

“The murderer arises at dawn;

He kills the poor and the needy,

And at night he is like a thief.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:19 -

“Dryness and heat snatch away the snow waters,

As [fn]Sheol snatches those who have sinned.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:20 -

“A [fn]mother will forget him;

The maggot feeds sweetly until he is no longer remembered.

And injustice will be broken like a tree.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:22 -

“But He drags off the mighty by His power;

He rises, but no one has assurance of life.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:24 -

“They are exalted a little while, then they are gone;

Moreover, they are brought low, and like everything they are gathered up;

Like the heads of grain they wither.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:25 -

“Now if it is not so, who can prove me a liar,

And make my speech worthless?”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 25:1 -

Then Bildad the Shuhite responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 25:3 -

“Is there any number to His troops?

And upon whom does His light not rise?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 25:5 -

“If even the moon has no brightness

And the stars are not pure in His sight,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 26:1 -

Then Job responded,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 26:4 -

“To whom have you uttered words?

And whose [fn]spirit was expressed through you?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 26:12 -

“With His power He quieted the sea,

And by His understanding He shattered [fn]Rahab.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 26:13 -

“By His breath the heavens are [fn]cleared;

His hand has pierced the fleeing serpent.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 26:14 -

“Behold, these are the fringes of His ways;

And how faint a word we hear of Him!

But His mighty thunder, who can understand?”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:1 -

Job again took up his discourse and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:3 -

For as long as [fn]life is in me,

And the [fn]breath of God is in my nostrils,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:6 -

“I have kept hold of my righteousness and will not let it go.

My heart does not rebuke any of my days.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:7 -

“May my enemy be as the wicked,

And [fn]my opponent as the criminal.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:13 -

“This is the portion of a wicked person from God,

And the inheritance which tyrants receive from the Almighty:

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:14 -

Though his sons are many, [fn]they are destined for the sword;

And his descendants will not be satisfied with bread.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:15 -

“His survivors will be buried because of the plague,

And [fn]their widows will not be able to weep.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:16 -

“Though he piles up silver like dust,

And prepares garments as plentiful as the clay,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:17 -

He may prepare it, but the righteous will wear it

And the innocent will divide the silver.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:18 -

“He has built his house like the [fn]spider's web,

Or a hut which the watchman has made.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:20 -

“Terrors overtake him like a flood;

A storm steals him away in the night.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:1 -

“Certainly there is a [fn]mine for silver

And a place [fn]for refining gold.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:2 -

“Iron is taken from the dust,

And copper is smelted from rock.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:4 -

“He [fn]sinks a shaft away from [fn]inhabited areas,

Forgotten by the foot;

They hang and swing, away from people.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:9 -

“He puts his hand on the flint;

He overturns the mountains at the [fn]base.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:10 -

“He carves out channels through the rocks,

And his eye sees anything precious.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:11 -

“He dams up the streams from [fn]flowing,

And brings to light what is hidden.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:12 -

“But where can wisdom be found?

And where is the place of understanding?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:20 -

“Where then does wisdom come from?

And where is this place of understanding?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:22 -

[fn]Abaddon and Death say,

‘With our ears we have heard a report of it.'

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:23 -

“God understands its way,

And He knows its place.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:28 -

“And to mankind He said, ‘Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom;

And to turn away from evil is understanding.'”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:1 -

Job again took up his discourse and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:6 -

When my steps were bathed in cream,

And the rock poured out streams of oil for me!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:7 -

“When I went out to the gate of the city,

When I [fn]took my seat in the public square,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:8 -

The young men saw me and hid themselves,

And the old men arose and stood.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:9 -

“The leaders stopped talking

And put their hands on their mouths;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:10 -

The voices of the prominent people were [fn]hushed,

And their tongues stuck to their palates.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:11 -

“For when an ear heard, it called me blessed,

And when an eye saw, it testified in support of me,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:13 -

“The blessing of the one who was about to perish came upon me,

And I made the widow's heart sing for joy.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:14 -

“I put on righteousness, and it clothed me;

My justice was like a robe and a headband.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:15 -

“I was eyes to those who were blind,

And feet to those who [fn]could not walk.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:17 -

“I broke the jaws of the wicked

And rescued the prey from his teeth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:21 -

“To me they listened and waited,

And they kept silent for my advice.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:22 -

“After my words they did not speak again,

And my speech dropped on them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:1 -

“But now those who are younger than I mock me,

Whose fathers I refused to put with the dogs of my flock.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:4 -

Who pluck saltweed by the bushes,

And whose food is the root of the broom shrub.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:9 -

“And now I have become their [fn]taunt,

And I have become a [fn]byword to them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:10 -

“They loathe me and stand aloof from me,

And they do not [fn]refrain from spitting in my face.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:17 -

“At night it pierces my bones [fn]within me,

And my gnawing pains do not rest.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:20 -

“I cry out to You for help, but You do not answer me;

I stand up, and You turn Your attention against me.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:25 -

“Have I not wept for the [fn]one whose life is hard?

Was my soul not grieved for the needy?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:26 -

“When I expected good, evil came;

When I waited for light, darkness came.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:28 -

“I go about [fn]mourning without comfort;

I stand up in the assembly and cry out for help.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:29 -

“I have become a brother to jackals,

And a companion of ostriches.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:30 -

“My skin turns black [fn]on me,

And my bones burn with [fn]fever.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:31 -

“Therefore my harp [fn]is turned to mourning,

And my flute to the sound of those who weep.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:5 -

“If I have walked with deception,

And my foot has hurried after deceit,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:6 -

Let Him weigh me with [fn]accurate scales,

And let God know my integrity.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:7 -

“If my step has turned from the way,

Or my heart [fn]followed my eyes,

Or if any spot has stuck to my hands,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:8 -

Let me sow and another eat,

And let my [fn]crops be uprooted.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:10 -

May my wife grind grain for another,

And let others [fn]kneel down over her.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:13 -

“If I have rejected the claim of my male or female slaves

When they filed a complaint against me,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:14 -

What then could I do when God arises?

And when He calls me to account, how am I to answer Him?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:15 -

“Did He who made me in the womb not make him,

And the same One create us in the womb?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:16 -

“If I have kept the poor from their desire,

Or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:17 -

Or have eaten my morsel alone,

And the orphan has not [fn]shared it

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:19 -

If I have seen anyone perish for lack of clothing,

Or that the needy had no covering,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:20 -

If his waist has not [fn]thanked me,

And if he has not been warmed with the fleece of my sheep,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:22 -

May my shoulder fall from its [fn]socket,

And my arm be broken off [fn]at the elbow.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:24 -

“If I have put my confidence in gold,

And called fine gold my trust,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:25 -

If I have gloated because my wealth was great,

And because my hand had obtained so much;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:26 -

If I have looked at the [fn]sun when it shone,

Or the moon going in splendor,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:27 -

And my heart was secretly enticed,

And my hand [fn]threw a kiss from my mouth,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:29 -

“Have I rejoiced at the misfortune of my enemy,

Or become excited when evil found him?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:30 -

[fn]No, I have not [fn]allowed my mouth to sin

By asking for his life in a curse.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:31 -

“Have the people of my tent not said,

‘Who can [fn]find one who has not been satisfied with his meat'?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:32 -

“The stranger has not spent the night outside,

For I have opened my doors to the [fn]traveler.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:33 -

“Have I covered my wrongdoings like a man,

By hiding my guilt in my shirt pocket,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:34 -

Because I feared the great multitude

And the contempt of families terrified me,

And I kept silent and did not go out of doors?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:35 -

“Oh that I had one to hear me!

Here is my [fn]signature;

Let the Almighty answer me!

And the indictment which my adversary has written,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:38 -

“If my land cries out against me,

And its furrows weep together;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:39 -

If I have eaten its [fn]fruit without money,

Or have caused [fn]its owners to lose their lives,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:40 -

May the thorn-bush [fn]grow instead of wheat,

And stinkweed instead of barley.”

The words of Job are ended.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:1 -

Then these three men stopped answering Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:2 - But the anger of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, burned against Job; his anger burned because he justified himself [fn]before God.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:3 - And his anger burned against his three friends because they had found no answer, yet they had condemned Job.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:4 - Now Elihu had waited [fn]to speak to Job because they were years older than he.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:6 -

So Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite [fn]spoke out and said,

“I am young in years and you are old;

Therefore I was shy and afraid to tell you [fn]what I think.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:7 -

“I [fn]thought [fn]age should speak,

And [fn]increased years should teach wisdom.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:8 -

“But it is a spirit that is in mankind,

And the breath of the Almighty gives them understanding.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:14 -

“But he has not presented his words against me,

Nor will I reply to him with your [fn]arguments.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:17 -

“I too will [fn]give my share of answers;

I also will tell my opinion.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:19 -

“Behold, my belly is like unvented wine;

Like new wineskins, it is about to burst.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:22 -

“For I do not know how to flatter,

Otherwise my Maker would quickly take me away.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:1 -

“However, please hear my speech, Job,

And listen to all my words.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:3 -

“My words are from the integrity of my heart,

And my lips speak knowledge sincerely.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:4 -

“The Spirit of God has made me,

And the breath of [fn]the Almighty gives me life.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:10 -

‘Behold, He [fn]invents [fn]criticisms against me;

He counts me as His enemy.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:11 -

‘He puts my feet in the stocks;

He watches all my paths.'

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:14 -

“Indeed God speaks once,

Or twice, yet no one notices it.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:17 -

So that He may turn a person away from bad conduct,

And [fn]keep a man from pride;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:18 -

He keeps his soul back from the pit,

And his life from perishing by the spear.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:19 -

A person is also rebuked by pain in his bed,

And with constant complaint in his bones,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:20 -

So that his life loathes bread,

And his soul, food [fn]that he should crave.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:22 -

“Then his soul comes near to the pit,

And his life to those who bring death.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:23 -

“If there is an interceding angel for him,

One out of a thousand,

To remind a person of what is [fn]right for him,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:24 -

And he is gracious to him, and says,

‘Free him from going down to the pit,

I have found a ransom';

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:25 -

Let his flesh become fresher than in youth,

Let him return to the days of his youthful vigor;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:26 -

Then he will pray to God, and He will accept him,

So that he may see His face with joy,

And He will restore His righteousness to that person.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:1 -

Then Elihu continued and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:6 -

[fn]Should I lie about my right?

My [fn]wound is incurable, though I am without wrongdoing.'

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:12 -

“God certainly will not act wickedly,

And the Almighty will not pervert justice.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:15 -

[fn]Humanity would perish together,

And mankind would return to dust.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:16 -

“But if you have understanding, hear this;

Listen to the sound of my words.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:20 -

“In a moment they die, and at midnight

People are shaken and pass away,

And the powerful are taken away without a hand.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:21 -

“For His eyes are upon the ways of a person,

And He sees all his steps.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:26 -

“He strikes them like the wicked

[fn]In a public place,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:27 -

Because they turned aside from following Him,

And had no regard for any of His ways,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:34 -

“Men of understanding will say to me,

And a wise man who hears me,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:35 -

‘Job speaks without knowledge,

And his words are without wisdom.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:36 -

‘Oh that Job were tested [fn]to the limit,

Because [fn]he answers like sinners.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:37 -

‘For he adds rebellion to his sin;

He claps his hands among us,

And multiplies his words against God.'”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:1 -

Then Elihu continued and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:5 -

“Look at the heavens and see;

And look at the clouds—they are higher than you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:6 -

“If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against Him?

And if your wrongdoings are many, what do you do to Him?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:7 -

“If you are righteous, what do you give to Him,

Or what does He receive from your hand?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:11 -

Who teaches us more than the animals of the earth

And makes us wiser than the birds of the sky?'

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:14 -

“How much less when you say you do not look at Him,

The case is before Him, and you must wait for Him!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:1 -

Then Elihu continued and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:5 -

“Behold, God is mighty but does not reject anyone;

He is mighty in strength of understanding.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:12 -

“But if they do not listen, they will [fn]perish by the sword,

And die without knowledge.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:14 -

[fn]They die in youth,

And their life perishes among the cult prostitutes.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:15 -

“He rescues the afflicted in [fn]their misery,

And opens their ears in time of oppression.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:17 -

“But you were full of judgment on the wicked;

Judgment and justice take hold of you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:18 -

Beware that wrath does not entice you to mockery;

And do not let the greatness of the ransom turn you aside.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:27 -

“For He draws up the drops of water;

They distill rain from its [fn]celestial stream,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:28 -

Which clouds pour down;

They drip upon mankind abundantly.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:8 -

“Then the animal goes into its lair

And remains in its [fn]den.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:9 -

“From the [fn]south comes the storm,

And from the north wind the cold.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:10 -

“From the breath of God ice is made,

And the expanse of the waters is frozen.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:16 -

“Do you know about the hovering of the clouds,

The wonders of One who is perfect in knowledge,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:17 -

You whose garments are hot

When the land is still because of the south wind?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:24 -

“Therefore people fear Him;

He does not regard any who are wise of heart.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:1 -

Then the LORD answered Job from the whirlwind and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:2 -

“Who is this who darkens the divine plan

By words without knowledge?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:8 -

“Or who enclosed the sea with doors

When it went out from the womb, bursting forth;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:9 -

When I made a cloud its garment,

And thick darkness its swaddling bands,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:10 -

And I [fn]placed boundaries on it

And set a bolt and doors,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:11 -

And I said, ‘As far as this point you shall come, but no farther;

And here your proud waves shall stop'?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:12 -

“Have you [fn]ever in your life commanded the morning,

And made the dawn know its place,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:15 -

“Their light is withheld from the wicked,

And the uplifted arm is broken.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:16 -

“Have you entered the springs of the sea,

And walked [fn]in the depth of the ocean?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:17 -

“Have the gates of death been revealed to you,

And have you seen the gates of deep darkness?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:18 -

“Have you understood the [fn]expanse of the earth?

Tell Me, if you know all this.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:19 -

“Where is the way to the dwelling of light?

And darkness, where is its place,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:20 -

That you would take it to its territory,

And discern the paths to its [fn]home?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:21 -

“You know, for you were born then,

And the number of your days is great!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:22 -

“Have you entered the storehouses of the snow,

And have you seen the storehouses of the hail,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:24 -

“Where is the way that the light is divided,

And the east wind scattered on the earth?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:25 -

“Who has split open a channel for the flood,

And a way for the thunderbolt,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:29 -

“From whose womb has come the ice?

And the frost of heaven, who has given it birth?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:30 -

“Water [fn]becomes hard like stone,

And the surface of the deep is imprisoned.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:31 -

“Can you tie up the chains of the Pleiades,

Or untie the cords of Orion?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:33 -

“Do you know the ordinances of the heavens,

Or do you establish their rule over the earth?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:34 -

“Can you raise your voice to the clouds,

So that an abundance of water will cover you?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:35 -

“Can you send flashes of lightning, so that they may go

And say to you, ‘Here we are'?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:36 -

“Who has put wisdom in the innermost being,

Or given understanding to the [fn]mind?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:37 -

“Who can count the clouds by wisdom,

And pour out the water jars of the heavens,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:38 -

When the dust hardens into a mass

And the clods stick together?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:39 -

“Can you hunt the prey for the lioness,

Or satisfy the appetite of young lions,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:40 -

When they crouch in their hiding places,

And lie in wait in their lair?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:41 -

“Who prepares [fn]feed for the raven

When its young cry to God,

And wander about without food?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:1 -

“Do you know the time the [fn]mountain goats give birth?

Do you observe the calving of the deer?

“Can you count the months they fulfill,

Or do you know the time they give birth?

“They kneel down, they deliver their young,

They get rid of their labor pains.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:5 -

“Who sent the wild donkey out free?

And who opened the bonds of the swift donkey,

To whom I gave the wilderness as his home,

And the salt land as his dwelling place?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:7 -

“He laughs at the turmoil of the city,

He does not hear the shouting of the taskmaster.

“Can you tie down the wild bull in a furrow with [fn]ropes,

Or will he [fn]plow the valleys after you?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:11 -

“Will you trust him because his strength is great,

And leave your labor to him?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:12 -

“Will you have faith in him that he will return your [fn]grain

And gather it from your threshing floor?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:19 -

“Do you give the horse his might?

Do you clothe his neck with a mane?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:20 -

“Do you make him leap like locusts?

His majestic snorting is frightening.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:21 -

[fn]He paws in the valley, and rejoices in his strength;

He goes out to meet the battle.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:25 -

“As often as the trumpet sounds he says, ‘Aha!'

And he senses the battle from afar,

And the thunder of the captains and the war cry.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:26 -

“Is it by your understanding that the hawk soars,

Stretching his wings toward the south?

“Is it at your [fn]command that the eagle flies high,

And makes his nest on high?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:30 -

“His young ones also lick up blood greedily;

And where the slain are, there he is.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:3 -

Then Job answered the LORD and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:4 -

“Behold, I am insignificant; what can I say in response to You?

I put my hand on my mouth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:5 -

“I have spoken once, and I will not reply;

Or twice, and I will add nothing more.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:6 -

Then the LORD answered Job from the whirlwind and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:10 -

“Adorn yourself with pride and dignity,

And clothe yourself with honor and majesty.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:11 -

“Let out your outbursts of anger,

And look at everyone who is arrogant, and humble him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:12 -

“Look at everyone who is arrogant, and humble him,

And trample down the wicked [fn]where they stand.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:13 -

“Hide them together in the dust;

Imprison [fn]them in the hidden place.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:16 -

“Behold, his strength in his waist,

And his power in the muscles of his belly.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:17 -

“He hangs his tail like a cedar;

The tendons of his thighs are knit together.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:18 -

“His bones are tubes of bronze;

His [fn]limbs are like bars of iron.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:20 -

“Indeed the [fn]mountains bring him food,

And all the animals of the field play there.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:22 -

“The lotus plants cover him with [fn]shade;

The willows of the brook surround him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:1 -

[fn]Can you drag out [fn]Leviathan with a fishhook,

And press down his tongue with a rope?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:2 -

“Can you put a [fn]rope in his nose,

And pierce his jaw with a [fn]hook?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:4 -

“Will he make a covenant with you?

Will you take him as a servant forever?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:5 -

“Will you play with him as with a bird,

And tie him down for your young girls?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:6 -

“Will the [fn]traders bargain for him?

Will they divide him among the merchants?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:7 -

“Can you fill his skin with harpoons,

Or his head with fishing spears?

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:8 -

“Lay your hand on him.

Remember the battle; [fn]you will not do it again!

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:13 -

“Who can [fn]strip off his outer covering?

Who can [fn]pierce his double [fn]armor?

“One is so close to another

That no air can come between them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:18 -

“His sneezes flash forth light,

And his eyes are like the eye of dawn.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:21 -

“His breath sets coals aglow,

And a flame goes forth from his mouth.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:22 -

“In his neck dwells strength,

And dismay leaps before him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:23 -

“The folds of his flesh are joined together,

Firm and immovable on him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:24 -

“His heart is as firm as a stone,

And as firm as a lower millstone.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:25 -

“When he rises up, the [fn]mighty are afraid;

Because of the crashing they are bewildered.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:27 -

“He regards iron as straw,

Bronze as rotten wood.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:29 -

“Clubs are regarded as stubble;

He laughs at the rattling of the javelin.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:30 -

“His underparts are like sharp pieces of pottery;

He [fn]spreads out like a threshing sledge on the mud.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:31 -

“He makes the depths boil like a pot;

He makes the sea like a jar of ointment.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:32 -

“Behind him he illuminates a pathway;

One would think the deep to be gray-haired.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:34 -

[fn]He looks on everything that is high;

He is king over all the sons of pride.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:1 -

Then Job answered the LORD and said,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:3 -

‘Who is this who conceals advice without knowledge?'

Therefore I have declared that which I did not understand,

Things too wonderful for me, which I do not know.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:5 -

“I have heard of You by the hearing of the ear;

But now my eye sees You;

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:6 -

Therefore I retract,

And I repent, sitting on dust and ashes.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:7 -

It came about after the LORD had spoken these words to Job, that the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite, “My wrath is kindled against you and against your two friends, because you have not spoken of Me what is trustworthy, as My servant Job has.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:8 - “Now therefore, take for yourselves seven bulls and seven rams, and go to My servant Job, and offer up a burnt offering for yourselves, and My servant Job will pray for you. For I will [fn]accept him so as not to do with you as your foolishness deserves, because you have not spoken of Me what is trustworthy, as My servant Job has.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:9 - So Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite went and did as the LORD told them; and the LORD [fn]accepted Job.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:10 -

The LORD also restored the fortunes of Job when he prayed for his friends, and the LORD increased double all that Job had.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:11 - Then all his brothers, all his sisters, and all who had known him before came to him, and they ate bread with him in his house; and they sympathized with him and comforted him for all the adversities that the LORD had brought on him. And each one gave him a [fn]piece of money, and each a ring of gold.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:12 - The LORD blessed the latter days of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep, six thousand camels, a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand female donkeys.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:13 - He also had seven sons and three daughters.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:14 - He named the first Jemimah, the second Keziah, and the third Keren-happuch.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:15 - In all the land no women were found as beautiful as Job's daughters; and their father gave them inheritances among their brothers.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:16 - After this, Job lived 140 years, and saw his sons and his grandsons, four generations.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:17 - And Job died, an old man and full of days.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 2:6 -

“But as for Me, I have installed My King

Upon Zion, My holy mountain.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 5:7 -

But as for me, by Your abundant graciousness I will enter Your house,

[fn]At Your holy temple I will bow in reverence for You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 6:5 -

For there is no [fn]mention of You in death;

In [fn]Sheol, who will praise You?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 8:7 -

All sheep and oxen,

And also the animals of the field,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 11:3 -

“If the foundations are destroyed,

What can the righteous do?”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 11:5 -

The LORD tests the righteous and the wicked,

And His soul hates one who loves violence.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 13:5 -

But I have trusted in Your faithfulness;

My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 15:4 -

A despicable person is despised in his eyes,

But he honors those who fear the LORD;

He takes an oath to his own detriment, and does not change;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 16:7 -

I will bless the LORD who has advised me;

Indeed, my [fn]mind instructs me in the night.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 16:9 -

Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices;

My flesh also will dwell securely.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 17:15 -

As for me, I shall behold Your face in righteousness;

I shall be satisfied with Your likeness when I awake.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 19:1 -

For the music director. A Psalm of David.

The heavens tell of the glory of God;

And their expanse declares the work of His hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 20:7 -

Some praise their chariots and some their horses,

But we will praise the name of the LORD, our God.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 20:8 -

They have bowed down and fallen,

But we have risen and stood upright.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 22:3 -

Yet You are holy,

You who [fn]are enthroned upon the praises of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 22:17 -

I can count all my bones.

They look, they stare at me;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 26:11 -

But as for me, I will walk in my integrity;

Redeem me, and be gracious to me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 27:10 -

[fn]For my father and my mother have forsaken me,

But the LORD will take me up.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 28:3 -

Do not drag me away with the wicked

And with those who practice injustice,

Who speak peace with their neighbors,

While evil is in their hearts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 30:6 -

Now as for me, I said in my prosperity,

“I will never be moved.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 30:7 -

LORD, by Your favor You have made my mountain to stand strong;

You hid Your face, I was dismayed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:6 -

I hate those who devote themselves to worthless [fn]idols,

But I trust in the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:14 -

But as for me, I trust in You, LORD,

I say, “You are my God.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:22 -

As for me, I said in my alarm,

“I am cut off from Your eyes”;

Nevertheless You heard the sound of my pleadings

When I called to You for help.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 32:10 -

The sorrows of the wicked are many,

But the one who trusts in the LORD, goodness will surround him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:8 -

Let all the earth fear the LORD;

Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:10 -

The LORD nullifies the plan of nations;

He frustrates the plans of peoples.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:11 -

The plan of the LORD stands forever,

The plans of His heart from generation to generation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:17 -

A horse is a false hope for victory;

Nor does it rescue anyone by its great strength.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 34:10 -

The young lions do without and suffer hunger;

But they who seek the LORD will not lack any good thing.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 34:16 -

The face of the LORD is against evildoers,

To eliminate the memory of them from the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:9 -

So my soul shall rejoice in the LORD;

It shall rejoice in His salvation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:13 -

But as for me, when they were sick, my clothing was sackcloth;

I humbled my soul with fasting,

But my prayer kept returning to [fn]me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 36:4 -

He plans wickedness on his bed;

He sets himself on a path that is not good;

He does not reject evil.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 36:7 -

How precious is Your mercy, God!

And the sons of mankind take refuge in the shadow of Your wings.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:9 -

For evildoers will be eliminated,

But those who wait for the LORD, they will inherit the land.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:11 -

But the humble will inherit the land

And will delight themselves in abundant prosperity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:13 -

The Lord laughs at him,

For He sees that his day is coming.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:17 -

For the arms of the wicked will be broken,

But the LORD sustains the righteous.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:20 -

But the wicked will perish;

And the enemies of the LORD will be like the [fn]glory of the pastures,

They vanish—like smoke they vanish away.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:21 -

The wicked borrows and does not pay back,

But the righteous is gracious and gives.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:22 -

For those blessed by Him will inherit the land,

But those cursed by Him will be eliminated.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:28 -

For the LORD loves [fn]justice

And does not abandon His godly ones;

They are protected forever,

But the [fn]descendants of the wicked will be eliminated.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:29 -

The righteous will inherit the land

And dwell in it forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:33 -

The LORD will not leave him in his hand

Or let him be condemned when he is judged.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:38 -

But wrongdoers will altogether be destroyed;

The future of the wicked will be eliminated.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:39 -

But the salvation of the righteous is from the LORD;

He is their strength in time of trouble.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:13 -

But I, like a person who is deaf, do not hear;

And I am like a person who cannot speak, who does not open his mouth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:19 -

But my enemies are vigorous and [fn]strong,

And those who wrongfully hate me are many.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 40:6 -

You have not desired [fn]sacrifice and meal offering;

You have [fn]opened my ears;

You have not required burnt offering and sin offering.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 40:17 -

But I am afflicted and needy;

May the Lord be mindful of me.

You are my help and my savior;

Do not delay, my God.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 41:12 -

As for me, You uphold me in my integrity,

And You place me in Your presence forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:9 -

Yet You have rejected us and brought us to dishonor,

And do not go out with our armies.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 50:8 -

“I do not rebuke you for your sacrifices,

And your burnt offerings are continually before Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 50:16 -

But to the wicked God says,

“What right do you have to tell of My statutes

And to take My covenant in your mouth?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 50:17 -

“For you yourself hate discipline,

And you throw My words behind you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 52:8 -

But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God;

I trust in the faithfulness of God forever and ever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 55:16 -

As for me, I shall call upon God,

And the LORD will save me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 55:23 -

But You, God, will bring them down to the pit of destruction;

Men of bloodshed and deceit will not live out half their days.

But I will trust in You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:3 -

[fn]When I am afraid,

[fn]I will put my trust in You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:15 -

They wander about [fn]for food

And [fn]murmur if they are not satisfied.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:16 -

But as for me, I will sing of Your strength;

Yes, I will joyfully sing of Your faithfulness in the morning,

For You have been my refuge

And a place of refuge on the day of my distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 60:12 -

[fn]Through God we will do valiantly,

And it is He who will trample down our enemies.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:9 -

But those who seek my [fn]life to destroy it,

Will go into the [fn]depths of the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:11 -

But the king will rejoice in God;

Everyone who swears by Him will boast,

For the mouths of those who speak lies will be stopped.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:9 -

You made plentiful rain fall, God;

You confirmed Your inheritance when it was [fn]parched.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:13 -

But as for me, my prayer is to You, LORD, at an acceptable time;

God, in the greatness of Your mercy,

Answer me with [fn]Your saving truth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 70:5 -

But I am afflicted and needy;

Hurry to me, God!

You are my help and my savior;

LORD, do not delay.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 71:14 -

But as for me, I will wait continually,

And will [fn]praise You yet more and more.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 71:24 -

My tongue also will tell of Your righteousness all day long;

For they are put to shame, for they are humiliated who seek [fn]my harm.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:2 -

But as for me, my feet came close to stumbling,

My steps [fn]had almost slipped.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:28 -

But as for me, the nearness of God is good for me;

I have made the Lord [fn]GOD my refuge,

So that I may tell of all Your works.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:12 -

Yet God is my King from long ago,

Who performs acts of salvation in the midst of the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 75:9 -

But as for me, I will declare it forever;

I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:37 -

For their heart was not steadfast toward Him,

Nor were they faithful with His covenant.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 79:13 -

So we Your people and the sheep of Your [fn]pasture

Will give thanks to You forever;

To all generations we will tell of Your praise.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 82:1 -

A Psalm of Asaph.

God takes His position in [fn]His assembly;

He judges in the midst of the gods.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 82:7 -

“Nevertheless you will die like men,

And fall like one of the princes.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 88:15 -

I was miserable and about to die from my youth on;

I suffer Your terrors; I grow weary.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:9 -

You rule the surging of the sea;

When its waves rise, You calm them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:33 -

“But I will not [fn]withhold My favor from him,

Nor deal falsely in My faithfulness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:38 -

But You have rejected and refused,

You have been full of wrath [fn]against Your anointed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:10 -

As for the days of our [fn]life, [fn]they contain seventy years,

Or if due to strength, eighty years,

Yet their pride is only trouble and tragedy;

For it quickly passes, and we disappear.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 91:7 -

A thousand may fall at your side

And ten thousand at your right hand,

But it shall not approach you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:8 -

But You, LORD, are on high forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 96:5 -

For all the gods of the peoples are [fn]idols,

But the LORD made the heavens.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:26 -

[fn]Even they will perish, but You endure;

All of them will wear out like a garment;

Like clothing You will change them and they will pass away.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:27 -

“But You are [fn]the same,

And Your years will not come to an end.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 103:17 -

But the [fn]mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting for those who [fn]fear Him,

And His justice to the children's children,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:34 -

May my praise be pleasing to Him;

As for me, I shall rejoice in the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:43 -

Many times He would rescue them;

They, however, were rebellious in their plan,

And they sank down into their guilt.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:4 -

In return for my love they act as my accusers;

But I am in prayer.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:28 -

They will curse, but You bless;

When they arise, they will be ashamed,

But Your servant will be glad.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 115:3 -

But our God is in the heavens;

He does whatever He pleases.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 115:16 -

The heavens are the heavens of the LORD,

But the earth He has given to the sons of mankind.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 116:10 -

I believed when I said,

“I am greatly afflicted.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:23 -

Even though rulers sit and speak against me,

Your servant meditates on Your statutes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:51 -

The arrogant utterly deride me,

Yet I do not turn aside from Your Law.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:69 -

The arrogant [fn]have forged a lie against me;

With all my heart I will comply with Your precepts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:70 -

Their heart is insensitive, like fat,

But I delight in Your Law.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:78 -

May the arrogant be put to shame, because they lead me astray with a lie;

But I shall meditate on Your precepts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:87 -

They almost destroyed me on earth,

But as for me, I did not abandon Your precepts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:150 -

Those who follow after wickedness approach;

They are far from Your Law.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:163 -

I hate and loathe falsehood,

But I love Your Law.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 125:5 -

But as for those who turn aside to their crooked ways,

The LORD will lead them away with those who practice injustice.

Peace be upon Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 126:6 -

One who goes here and there weeping, carrying his bag of seed,

Shall indeed come again with a shout of joy, bringing his sheaves with him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 132:18 -

“I will clothe his enemies with shame,

But upon himself his crown will gleam.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 139:17 -

How precious also are Your thoughts for me, God!

How vast is the sum of them!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 141:5 -

May the righteous strike me with mercy and discipline me;

It is oil for the head;

My head shall not refuse it,

For my prayer is still against their evil deeds.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 147:6 -

The LORD [fn]supports the afflicted;

He brings the wicked down to the ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:4 -

To give prudence to the naive,

To the youth knowledge and discretion,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:5 -

A wise person will hear and increase in learning,

And a person of understanding will acquire wise counsel,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:7 -

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge;

Fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:11 -

If they say, “Come with us,

Let's lie in wait for blood,

Let's ambush the innocent without cause;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:12 -

Let's swallow them alive like Sheol,

Even whole, like those who go down to the pit;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:13 -

We will find all kinds of precious wealth,

We will fill our houses with plunder;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:14 -

Throw in your lot [fn]with us;

We will all have one money bag,”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:15 -

My son, do not walk on the way with them.

Keep your feet from their path,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:18 -

But they lie in wait for their own blood;

They ambush their own lives.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:20 -

Wisdom shouts in the street,

She [fn]raises her voice in the public square;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:21 -

At the head of the noisy streets she cries out;

At the entrance of the gates in the city she declares her sayings:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:22 -

“How long, you naive ones, will you love simplistic thinking?

And how long will scoffers delight themselves in scoffing

And fools hate knowledge?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:23 -

“Turn to my rebuke,

Behold, I will pour out my spirit on you;

I will make my words known to you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:25 -

And you neglected all my advice

And did not want my rebuke;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:27 -

When your dread comes like a storm

And your disaster comes like a whirlwind,

When distress and anguish come upon you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:28 -

“Then they will call on me, but I will not answer;

They will seek me diligently but will not find me,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:29 -

Because they hated knowledge

And did not choose the fear of the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:30 -

“They did not accept my advice,

They disdainfully rejected every rebuke from me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:33 -

“But whoever listens to me will live securely

And will be at ease from the dread of evil.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:2 -

Make your ear attentive to wisdom;

Incline your heart to understanding.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:3 -

For if you cry out for insight,

And [fn]raise your voice for understanding;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:10 -

For wisdom will enter your heart,

And knowledge will be delightful to your soul;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:11 -

Discretion will watch over you,

Understanding will guard you,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:21 -

For the upright will live in the land,

And the blameless will remain in it;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:22 -

But the wicked will be eliminated from the land,

And the treacherous will be torn away from it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:1 -

My son, do not forget my [fn]teaching,

But have your heart comply with my commandments;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:3 -

Do not let kindness and truth leave you;

Bind them around your neck,

Write them on the tablet of your heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:5 -

Trust in the LORD with all your heart

And do not lean on your own understanding.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:6 -

In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He will make your paths straight.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:7 -

Do not be wise in your own eyes;

Fear the LORD and turn away from evil.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:10 -

Then your barns will be filled with plenty,

And your vats will overflow with new wine.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:12 -

For whom the LORD loves He disciplines,

Just as a father disciplines the son in whom he delights.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:15 -

She is more precious than [fn]jewels,

And nothing you desire compares with her.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:16 -

[fn]Long life is in her right hand;

In her left hand are riches and honor.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:19 -

The LORD founded the earth by wisdom,

He established the heavens by understanding.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:20 -

By His knowledge the ocean depths were burst open,

And the clouds drip with dew.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:21 -

My son, see that they do not escape from your sight;

Comply with sound wisdom and discretion,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:22 -

And they will be life to your soul

And adornment to your neck.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:23 -

Then you will walk in your way securely,

And your foot will not stumble.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:24 -

When you lie down, you will not be afraid;

When you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:32 -

For the devious are an abomination to the LORD;

But [fn]He is intimate with the upright.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:33 -

The curse of the LORD is on the house of the wicked,

But He blesses the home of the righteous.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:34 -

Though He scoffs at the scoffers,

Yet He gives grace to the needy.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:35 -

The wise will inherit honor,

But fools [fn]increase dishonor.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:9 -

“She will place on your head a garland of grace;

She will present you with a crown of beauty.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:12 -

When you walk, your steps will not be hampered;

And if you run, you will not stumble.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:15 -

Avoid it, do not pass by it;

Turn away from it and pass on.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:17 -

For they eat the bread of wickedness,

And drink the wine of violence.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:18 -

But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn

That shines brighter and brighter until the full day.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:19 -

The way of the wicked is like darkness;

They do not know over what they [fn]stumble.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:20 -

My son, pay attention to my words;

Incline your ear to my sayings.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:25 -

Let your eyes look directly ahead

And let your [fn]gaze be fixed straight in front of you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:27 -

Do not turn to the right or to the left;

Turn your foot from evil.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:1 -

My son, pay attention to my wisdom,

Incline your ear to my understanding,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:2 -

So that you may maintain discretion

And your lips may comply with knowledge.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:5 -

Her feet go down to death,

Her steps take hold of Sheol.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:6 -

[fn]She does not ponder the path of life;

Her ways are unstable, she does not know it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:10 -

And strangers will be filled with your strength,

And your hard-earned possessions will go to the house of a foreigner;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:16 -

Should your springs overflow into the street,

Streams of water in the public squares?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:19 -

Like a loving doe and a graceful mountain goat,

Let her breasts satisfy you at all times;

Be [fn]exhilarated always with her love.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:21 -

For the ways of everyone are before the eyes of the LORD,

And He observes all his paths.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:22 -

His own wrongdoings will trap the wicked,

And he will be held by the ropes of his sin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:23 -

He will die for lack of instruction,

And in the greatness of his foolishness he will go astray.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:3 -

Then do this, my son, and save yourself:

Since you have come into the [fn]hand of your neighbor,

Go, humble yourself, and be urgent with your neighbor to free yourself.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:9 -

How long will you lie down, you [fn]lazy one?

When will you arise from your sleep?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:10 -

“A little sleep, a little slumber,

A little folding of the hands to [fn]rest,”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:11 -

Then your poverty will come in like a [fn]drifter,

And your need like [fn]an armed man.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:13 -

Who winks with his eyes, who [fn]signals with his feet,

Who [fn]points with his fingers;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:14 -

Who, with perversion in his heart, continually devises evil,

Who [fn]spreads strife.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:16 -

There are six things that the LORD hates,

Seven that are an abomination [fn]to Him:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:21 -

Bind them continually on your heart;

Tie them around your neck.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:26 -

For the price of a prostitute reduces one to a loaf of bread,

And [fn]an adulteress hunts for a precious life.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:27 -

Can anyone take fire in his lap

And his clothes not be burned?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:28 -

Or can a person walk on hot coals

And his feet not be scorched?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:31 -

But when he is found, he must repay seven times as much;

He must give up all the property of his house.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:32 -

One who commits adultery with a woman is lacking [fn]sense;

He who would destroy [fn]himself commits it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:33 -

He will find wounds and disgrace,

And his shame will not be removed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:1 -

My son, keep my words

And treasure my commandments within you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:2 -

Keep my commandments and live,

And my [fn]teaching as the [fn]apple of your eye.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:3 -

Bind them on your fingers;

Write them on the tablet of your heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:4 -

Say to wisdom, “You are my sister,”

And call understanding your intimate friend,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:10 -

And behold, a woman comes to meet him,

Dressed as a prostitute and cunning of heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:11 -

She is boisterous and rebellious,

Her feet do not remain at home;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:12 -

She is now in the streets, now in the public squares,

And lurks by every corner.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:13 -

So she seizes him and kisses him,

[fn]And with a brazen face she says to him:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:16 -

“I have spread my couch with coverings,

With colored linens of Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:17 -

“I have sprinkled my bed

With myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:19 -

“For [fn]my husband is not at home;

He has gone on a long journey.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:21 -

With her many persuasions she entices him;

With her [fn]flattering lips she seduces him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:22 -

Suddenly he follows her

As an ox goes to the slaughter,

Or as [fn]one walks in ankle bracelets to the discipline of a fool,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:23 -

Until an arrow pierces through his liver;

As a bird hurries to the snare,

So he does not know that it will cost him his life.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:2 -

On top of the heights beside the way,

Where the paths meet, she takes her stand;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:3 -

Beside the gates, at the opening to the city,

At the entrance of the doors, she cries out:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:5 -

“You naive ones, understand prudence;

And, you fools, understand [fn]wisdom!

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:7 -

“For my mouth will proclaim truth;

And wickedness is an abomination to my lips.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:10 -

“Accept my instruction and not silver,

And knowledge rather than choice gold.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:11 -

“For wisdom is better than [fn]jewels;

And all desirable things cannot compare with her.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:13 -

“The fear of the LORD is to hate evil;

Pride, arrogance, the evil way,

And the perverted mouth, I hate.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:14 -

“Advice is mine and sound wisdom;

I am understanding, power is mine.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:17 -

“I love those who love me;

And those who diligently seek me will find me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:19 -

“My fruit is better than gold, even pure gold;

And my yield better than choice silver.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:25 -

“Before the mountains were settled,

Before the hills, I was born;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:30 -

Then I was beside Him, as a master workman;

And I was His delight daily,

[fn]Rejoicing always before Him,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:36 -

“But one who [fn]sins against me injures himself;

All those who hate me love death.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:7 -

One who corrects a scoffer gets dishonor for himself,

And one who rebukes a wicked person gets [fn]insults for himself.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:12 -

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself,

And if you scoff, you alone will [fn]suffer from it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:16 -

“Whoever is naive, let him turn in here,”

And to him who lacks [fn]understanding she says,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:18 -

But he does not know that the [fn]dead are there,

That her guests are in the depths of Sheol.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:1 -

The proverbs of Solomon.

A wise son makes a father glad,

But a foolish son is a grief to his mother.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:2 -

[fn]Ill-gotten gains do not benefit,

But righteousness rescues from death.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:3 -

The LORD will not allow the [fn]righteous to hunger,

But He will [fn]reject the craving of the wicked.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:4 -

Poor is one who works with [fn]a lazy hand,

But the hand of the diligent makes rich.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:5 -

He who gathers in summer is a son who acts wisely,

But he who sleeps in harvest is a son who acts shamefully.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:6 -

Blessings are on the head of the righteous,

But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:7 -

The mentioning of the righteous is a blessing,

But the name of the wicked will rot.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:8 -

The wise of heart will receive commands,

But [fn]a babbling fool will come to ruin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:9 -

One who walks in integrity walks securely,

But one who perverts his ways will be found out.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:10 -

He who winks the eye causes trouble,

And [fn]a babbling fool will come to ruin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:11 -

The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,

But the mouth of the wicked conceals violence.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:12 -

Hatred stirs up strife,

But love covers all offenses.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:14 -

Wise people store up knowledge,

But with the mouth of the foolish, ruin is at hand.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:15 -

The rich person's wealth is his [fn]fortress,

The ruin of the poor is their poverty.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:16 -

The [fn]wages of the righteous is life,

The income of the wicked, punishment.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:17 -

One who is on the path of life follows instruction,

But one who ignores a rebuke goes astray.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:18 -

Discipline your son while there is hope,

And do not desire [fn]his death.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:19 -

A person of great anger will suffer the penalty,

For if you rescue him, you will only have to do it again.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:21 -

Many plans are in a person's heart,

But the advice of the LORD will stand.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:22 -

What is desirable in a person is his [fn]kindness,

And it is better to be a poor person than a liar.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:23 -

[fn]The fear of the LORD leads to life,

So that one may sleep satisfied, [fn]untouched by evil.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:25 -

Strike a scoffer and the naive may become clever,

But rebuke one who has understanding, and he will [fn]gain knowledge.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:28 -

A worthless witness makes a mockery of justice,

And the mouth of the wicked [fn]swallows wrongdoing.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:1 -

Wine is a mocker, intoxicating drink a brawler,

And whoever [fn]is intoxicated by it is not wise.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:2 -

The terror of a king is like the roaring of a lion;

One who provokes him to anger [fn]forfeits his own life.

Avoiding strife is an honor for a person,

But any fool will [fn]quarrel.

But a person of understanding draws it out.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:6 -

Many a person proclaims his own loyalty,

But who can find a trustworthy person?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:20 -

He who curses his father or his mother,

His lamp will go out in time of darkness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:24 -

A man's steps are ordained by the LORD;

How then can a person understand his way?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:29 -

The glory of young men is their strength,

And the [fn]honor of old men is their gray hair.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:30 -

Bruising wounds clean away evil,

And blows cleanse the [fn]innermost parts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:2 -

Every person's way is right in his own eyes,

But the LORD examines the hearts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:4 -

Haughty eyes and a proud heart,

The lamp of the wicked, is sin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:11 -

When the scoffer is punished, the naive becomes wise;

But when the wise is instructed, he receives knowledge.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:14 -

A gift in secret subdues anger,

And a bribe [fn]in an inside pocket, strong wrath.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:15 -

The exercise of justice is joy for the righteous,

But terror to those who practice injustice.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:18 -

The wicked is a ransom for the righteous,

And the treacherous is in the place of the upright.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:20 -

There is precious treasure and oil in the home of the wise,

But a foolish person swallows it up.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:24 -

“Proud,” “Arrogant,” “Scoffer,” are his names,

One who acts with insolent pride.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:26 -

All day long he [fn]is craving,

While the righteous gives and does not hold back.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:28 -

A false witness will perish,

But a person who listens will speak forever.

The horse is prepared for the day of battle,

But the victory belongs to the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:1 -

A good name is to be more desired than great wealth;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:2 -

The rich and the poor [fn]have a common bond,

The LORD is the Maker of them all.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:3 -

A prudent person sees evil and hides himself,

Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child;

The rod of discipline will remove it far from him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:16 -

One who oppresses the poor to make [fn]more for himself,

Or gives to the rich, will only come to poverty.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:17 -

Extend your ear and hear the words of the wise,

And apply your mind to my knowledge;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:20 -

Have I not written to you [fn]excellent things

Of counsels and knowledge,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:24 -

Do not make friends with a person given to anger,

Or go with a hot-tempered person,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:3 -

Do not desire his delicacies,

For it is deceptive food.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:4 -

Do not weary yourself to gain wealth;

[fn]Stop dwelling on it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:10 -

Do not move the ancient boundary

Or go into the fields of the fatherless,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:12 -

Apply your heart to discipline,

And your ears to words of knowledge.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:14 -

You shall strike him with the rod

And rescue his soul from Sheol.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:18 -

Certainly there is a [fn]future,

And your hope will not be cut off.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:24 -

The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice,

And he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:26 -

Give me your heart, my son,

And let your eyes [fn]delight in my ways.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:32 -

In the end it bites like a snake

And stings like a viper.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:35 -

“They struck me, but I did not become [fn]ill;

They beat me, but I did not know it.

When will I awake?

I will seek [fn]another drink.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:6 -

For by wise guidance you will [fn]wage war,

And in an abundance of counselors there is victory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:9 -

The devising of foolishness is sin,

And the scoffer is an abomination to humanity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:12 -

If you say, “See, we did not know this,”

Does He who weighs the hearts not consider it?

And does He who watches over your soul not know it?

And will He not [fn]repay a person according to his work?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:16 -

For a righteous person falls seven times and rises again,

But the wicked stumble in time of disaster.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:17 -

Do not rejoice when your enemy falls,

And do not let your heart rejoice when he stumbles,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:20 -

For there will be no [fn]future for the evil person;

The lamp of the wicked will be put out.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:22 -

For their disaster will rise suddenly,

And who knows the ruin that can come from both of them?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:23 -

These also are sayings of the wise:

To [fn]show partiality in judgment is not good.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:25 -

But for those who rebuke the wicked there will be delight,

And a good blessing will come upon them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:26 -

One who gives [fn]a right answer

Kisses the lips.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:29 -

Do not say, “I shall do the same to him as he has done to me;

I will [fn]repay the person according to his work.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:31 -

And behold, it was completely overgrown with weeds;

Its surface was covered with weeds,

And its stone wall was broken down.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:33 -

“A little sleep, a little slumber,

A little folding of the hands to rest,”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:34 -

Then your poverty will come like [fn]a drifter,

And your need like [fn]an armed man.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:2 -

It is the glory of God to conceal a matter,

But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:3 -

As the heavens for height and the earth for depth,

So the heart of kings is unsearchable.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:10 -

Or one who hears it will put you to shame,

And the evil report about you will not [fn]pass away.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:15 -

Through [fn]patience a ruler may be persuaded,

And a gentle tongue breaks bone.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:22 -

For you will [fn]heap burning coals on his head,

And the LORD will reward you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:23 -

The north wind brings rain,

And a [fn]gossiping tongue brings an angry face.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:27 -

It is not good to eat much honey,

Nor is it glory to search out [fn]one's own glory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:9 -

Like a thorn that [fn]sticks in the hand of a heavy drinker,

So is a proverb in the mouths of fools.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:18 -

Like a maniac who shoots

Flaming arrows, arrows, and death,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:19 -

So is a person who deceives his neighbor,

And says, “Was I not joking?”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:20 -

For lack of wood the fire goes out,

And where there is no gossiper, quarreling quiets down.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:21 -

Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,

So is a contentious person to kindle strife.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:22 -

The words of a gossiper are like dainty morsels,

And they go down into the [fn]innermost parts of the body.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:24 -

One who hates disguises it with his lips,

But he harbors deceit in his [fn]heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:26 -

Though his hatred covers itself with deception,

His wickedness will be revealed in the assembly.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:27 -

One who digs a pit will fall into it,

And one who rolls a stone, it will come back on him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:28 -

A lying tongue hates [fn]those it crushes,

And a flattering mouth works ruin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:3 -

A stone is heavy and the sand weighty,

But the provocation of a fool is heavier than both of them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:7 -

A satisfied [fn]person [fn]despises honey,

But to a hungry [fn]person any bitter thing is sweet.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:9 -

Oil and perfume make the heart glad,

And a [fn]person's advice is sweet to his friend.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:10 -

Do not abandon your friend or your father's friend,

And do not go to your brother's house on the day of your disaster;

Better is a neighbor who is near than a brother far away.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:12 -

A prudent person sees evil and hides himself;

But the naive proceed, and pay the penalty.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:16 -

He who would [fn]restrain her [fn]restrains the wind,

And [fn]grasps oil with his right hand.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:17 -

As iron sharpens iron,

So one person sharpens another.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:18 -

One who tends the fig tree will eat its fruit,

And one who cares for his master will be honored.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:21 -

The crucible is for silver and the furnace for gold,

And each is tested by the praise accorded him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:1 -

The wicked flee when no one is pursuing,

But the righteous are [fn]bold as a lion.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:2 -

Due to a [fn]wrongdoing of [fn]a land its leaders are many,

But by a person of understanding and knowledge, so it endures.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:4 -

Those who abandon the Law praise the wicked,

But those who keep the Law strive against them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:5 -

Evil people do not understand justice,

But those who seek the LORD understand everything.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:7 -

He who keeps the Law is a discerning son,

But he who is a companion of gluttons humiliates his father.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:10 -

One who leads the upright astray in an evil way

Will himself fall into his own pit,

But the blameless will inherit good.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:11 -

The rich person is wise in his own eyes,

But the poor who has understanding [fn]sees through him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:12 -

When the righteous triumph, there is great glory,

But when the wicked rise, people [fn]hide themselves.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:13 -

One who conceals his wrongdoings will not prosper,

But one who confesses and abandons them will find compassion.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:14 -

How blessed is the person who fears always,

But one who hardens his heart will fall into disaster.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:16 -

A leader who is a great oppressor lacks understanding,

But a person who hates unjust gain will prolong his days.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:18 -

One who walks blamelessly will receive help,

But one who is [fn]crooked will fall all at once.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:19 -

One who works his land will have plenty of food,

But one who follows empty pursuits will have plenty of poverty.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:20 -

A faithful person will abound with blessings,

But one who hurries to be rich will not go unpunished.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:25 -

An [fn]arrogant person stirs up strife,

But one who trusts in the LORD will [fn]prosper.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:26 -

One who trusts in his own heart is a fool,

But one who walks wisely will flee to safety.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:27 -

One who gives to the poor will never lack anything,

But one who [fn]shuts his eyes will have many curses.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:28 -

When the wicked rise, people hide themselves;

But when they perish, the righteous increase.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:2 -

When the righteous [fn]increase, the people rejoice,

But when a wicked person rules, people groan.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:3 -

A man who loves wisdom makes his father glad,

But he who involves himself with prostitutes wastes his wealth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:4 -

The king gives stability to the land by justice,

But a person who takes bribes ruins it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:6 -

By wrongdoing an evil person is ensnared,

But the righteous sings and rejoices.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:7 -

The righteous [fn]is concerned for the rights of the poor;

The wicked does not understand such [fn]concern.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:8 -

Arrogant people inflame a city,

But wise people turn away anger.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:9 -

When a wise person has a controversy with a foolish person,

[fn]The foolish person either rages or laughs, and there is no rest.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:10 -

People of bloodshed hate the blameless person,

But the upright [fn]are concerned for his life.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:11 -

A fool [fn]always loses his temper,

But a wise person holds it back.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:15 -

The rod and a rebuke give wisdom,

But a child [fn]who gets his own way brings shame to his mother.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:16 -

When the wicked [fn]increase, wrongdoing increases;

But the righteous will see their downfall.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:18 -

Where there is no [fn]vision, the people are unrestrained,

But happy is one who keeps the Law.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:21 -

One who pampers his slave from childhood

Will in the end find him to be rebellious.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:22 -

An angry person stirs up strife,

And a hot-tempered person abounds in wrongdoing.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:23 -

A person's pride will bring him low,

But a humble spirit will obtain honor.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:24 -

One who is a partner with a thief hates his own life;

He hears the oath but tells nothing.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:25 -

The fear of man [fn]brings a snare,

But one who trusts in the LORD will be protected.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:26 -

Many seek the ruler's [fn]favor,

But justice for mankind comes from the LORD.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:27 -

An unjust person is an abomination to the righteous,

And one who is upright in the way is an abomination to the wicked.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:5 -

Every word of God is [fn]pure;

He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:8 -

Keep deception and [fn]lies far from me,

Give me neither poverty nor riches;

Feed me with the food that is my portion,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:11 -

There is a [fn]kind of person who curses his father

And does not bless his mother.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:12 -

There is a [fn]kind who is pure in his own eyes,

Yet is not washed from his filthiness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:13 -

There is a [fn]kind—oh how lofty are his eyes!

And his eyelids are raised in arrogance.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:21 -

Under three things the earth quakes,

And under four, it cannot endure:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:33 -

For the [fn]churning of milk produces butter,

And pressing the nose produces blood;

So the [fn]churning of anger produces strife.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:4 -

It is not for kings, Lemuel,

It is not for kings to drink wine,

Or for rulers to desire intoxicating drink,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:9 -

Open your mouth, judge righteously,

And [fn]defend the rights of the poor and needy.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:14 -

She is like merchant ships;

She brings her food from afar.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:16 -

She considers a field and buys it;

From [fn]her earnings she plants a vineyard.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:19 -

She stretches out her hands to the [fn]distaff,

And her [fn]hands grasp the spindle.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:20 -

She [fn]extends her hand to the poor,

And she stretches out her hands to the needy.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:22 -

She makes coverings for herself;

Her clothing is fine linen and purple.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:23 -

Her husband is known in the gates,

When he sits among the elders of the land.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:24 -

She makes linen garments and sells them,

And [fn]supplies belts to the [fn]tradesmen.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:27 -

She watches over the activities of her household,

And does not eat the bread of idleness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:28 -

Her children rise up and bless her;

Her husband also, and he praises her, saying:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:29 -

“Many daughters have done nobly,

But you excel them all.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:30 -

Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain,

But a woman who [fn]fears the LORD, she shall be praised.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:18 -

“Come now, and let us [fn]debate your case,

Says the LORD,

“Though your sins are as scarlet,

They shall become as white as snow;

Though they are red like crimson,

They shall be like wool.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:20 -

But if you refuse and rebel,

You will be devoured by the sword.”

For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:21 -

How the faithful city has become a prostitute,

She who was full of justice!

Righteousness once dwelt in her,

But now murderers.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:25 -

“I will also turn My hand against you,

And smelt away your impurities as with lye;

And I will remove all your slag.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:11 -

The [fn]proud look of humanity will be brought low,

And the arrogance of people will be humbled;

And the LORD alone will be exalted on that day.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:9 -

[fn]The expression of their faces testifies against them,

And they [fn]display their sin like Sodom;

They do not even conceal it.

Woe to [fn]them!

For they have done evil to themselves.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:14 -

The LORD enters into judgment with the elders and leaders of His people,

“It is you who have [fn]devoured the vineyard;

The goods stolen from the poor are in your houses.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 4:2 -

On that day the Branch of the LORD will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth will be the pride and the beauty of the survivors of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:2 -

He dug it all around, cleared it of stones,

And planted it with [fn]the choicest vine.

And He built a tower in the middle of it,

And also carved out a [fn]wine vat in it;

Then He expected it to produce good grapes,

But it produced only [fn]worthless ones.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:4 -

“What more was there to do for My vineyard [fn]that I have not done in it?

Why, when I expected it to produce good grapes did it produce [fn]worthless ones?

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:5 -

“So now let Me tell you what I am going to do to My vineyard:

I will remove its hedge and it will be consumed;

I will break down its wall and it will become trampled ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:7 -

For the vineyard of the LORD of armies is the house of Israel,

And the people of Judah are His delightful plant.

So He waited for justice, but behold, there was bloodshed;

For righteousness, but behold, a cry for help.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:12 -

Their banquets are accompanied by lyre and harp, by tambourine and flute, and by wine;

But they do not pay attention to the deeds of the LORD,

Nor do they consider the work of His hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 8:12 -

“You are not to say, ‘It is a conspiracy!'

Regarding everything that this people call a conspiracy,

And you are not to fear [fn]what they fear or be in dread of it.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 8:14 -

“Then He will become a sanctuary;

But to both houses of Israel, He will be a stone of stumbling and a rock [fn]of offense,

And a snare and a trap for the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:7 -

Yet it does not so intend,

Nor does [fn]it plan so in its heart,

But rather it is [fn]its purpose to destroy

And to eliminate [fn]many nations.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:25 - “For in a very little while My indignation against you will be ended and My anger will be directed toward their destruction.”
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:34 -

He will cut down the thickets of the forest with an iron axe,

And Lebanon will fall by the Mighty One.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 11:14 -

They will swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines on the west;

Together they will plunder the [fn]people of the east;

[fn]They will possess Edom and Moab,

And the sons of Ammon will be [fn]subject to them.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:10 -

“They will all respond and say to you,

‘Even you have become weak as we,

You have become like us.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:11 -

‘Your pride and the music of your harps

Have been brought down to Sheol;

Maggots are spread out as your bed beneath you

And worms are your covering.'

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:13 -

“But you said in your heart,

‘I will ascend to heaven;

I will raise my throne above the stars of God,

And I will sit on the mount of assembly

In the recesses of the north.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:15 -

“Nevertheless you will be brought down to Sheol,

To the recesses of the pit.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:19 -

“But you have been hurled out of your tomb

Like [fn]a rejected branch,

[fn]Clothed with those killed who have been pierced with a sword,

Who go down to the stones of the pit

Like a trampled corpse.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:30 -

[fn]Those who are most helpless will eat,

And the poor will lie down in security;

I will kill your root with famine,

And it will kill your survivors.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 15:5 -

My heart cries out for Moab;

His fugitives are as far as Zoar and Eglath-shelishiyah,

For they go up the ascent of Luhith weeping;

Indeed, on the road to Horonaim they raise a cry of distress over their collapse.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 15:9 -

For the waters of Dimon are full of [fn]blood;

I will certainly bring added woes upon Dimon,

A lion upon the fugitives of Moab and the remnant of the land.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 17:7 -

On that day man will look to his Maker

And his eyes will look to the Holy One of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 17:11 -

On the day that you plant it you carefully fence it in,

And in the morning you bring your seed to blossom;

But the harvest will flee

On a day of illness and incurable pain.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 19:5 -

The waters from the sea will dry up,

And the river will be parched and dry.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 19:16 -

On that day the Egyptians will become like women, and they will tremble and be in great fear because of the waving of the hand of the LORD of armies, which He is going to wave over them.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 22:6 -

Elam picked up the quiver,

With the chariots, [fn]infantry, and horsemen;

And Kir uncovered the shield.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 22:7 -

Then your choicest valleys were full of chariots,

And the horsemen took positions at the gate.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 22:13 -

Instead, there is joy and jubilation,

Killing of cattle and slaughtering of sheep,

Eating of meat and drinking of wine:

“Let's eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 23:4 -

Be ashamed, Sidon,

For the sea speaks, the stronghold of the sea, saying,

“I have neither been in labor nor given birth,

I have neither brought up young men nor raised virgins.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 23:5 -

When the report reaches Egypt,

They will be in anguish over the report of Tyre.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 23:11 -

He has stretched His hand out over the sea,

He has made the kingdoms tremble;

The LORD has given a command concerning Canaan to demolish its strongholds.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 24:5 - The earth is also defiled [fn]by its inhabitants, for they violated laws, altered statutes, and broke the everlasting covenant.
