Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:19 - Now therefore let my lord the king hear the words of his servant.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:22 - Therefore you are great, O LORD God. For there is none like you, and there is no God besides you, according to all that we have heard with our ears.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:25 - And now, O LORD God, confirm forever the word that you have spoken concerning your servant and concerning his house, and do as you have spoken.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:11 - Uriah said to David, “The ark and Israel and Judah dwell in booths, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are camping in the open field.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:13 - As for me, where could I carry my shame? And as for you, you would be as one of the outrageous fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king, for he will not withhold me from you.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:20 - And her brother Absalom said to her, “Has Amnon your brother been with you? Now hold your peace, my sister. He is your brother; do not take this to heart.” So Tamar lived, a desolate woman, in her brother Absalom's house.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:25 - But the king said to Absalom, “No, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome to you.” He pressed him, but he would not go but gave him his blessing.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:32 - But Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David's brother, said, “Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men, the king's sons, for Amnon alone is dead. For by the command of Absalom this has been determined from the day he violated his sister Tamar.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:7 - And now the whole clan has risen against your servant, and they say, ‘Give up the man who struck his brother, that we may put him to death for the life of his brother whom he killed.'

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:9 - And the woman of Tekoa said to the king, “On me be the guilt, my lord the king, and on my father's house; let the king and his throne be guiltless.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:11 - Then she said, “Please let the king invoke the LORD your God, that the avenger of blood kill no more, and my son be not destroyed.” He said, “As the LORD lives, not one hair of your son shall fall to the ground.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:12 - Then the woman said, “Please let your servant speak a word to my lord the king.” He said, “Speak.”

and to the Lord I plead for mercy:
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 30:9 - “What profit is there in my death,[fn]

O LORD my God, I will give thanks to you forever!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:3 - For you are my rock and my fortress;

you have redeemed me, O LORD, faithful God.

my eye is wasted from grief;
my soul and my body also.

my strength fails because of my iniquity,
and my bones waste away.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:11 - Because of all my adversaries I have become a reproach,
especially to my neighbors,
and an object of dread to my acquaintances;
those who see me in the street flee from me.

terror on every side!—
as they scheme together against me,

my soul is bereft.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:13 - But I, when they were sick—
I wore sackcloth;
I afflicted myself with fasting;
I prayed with head bowed[fn] on my chest.

Rescue me from their destruction,
my precious life from the lions!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:23 - Awake and rouse yourself for my vindication,
for my cause, my God and my Lord!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:24 - Vindicate me, O LORD, my God,
according to your righteousness,
and let them not rejoice over me!

and of your praise all the day long.

and the light of my eyes—it also has gone from me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:11 - My friends and companions stand aloof from my plague,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:12 - Those who seek my life lay their snares;
those who seek my hurt speak of ruin
and meditate treachery all day long.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:15 - But for you, O LORD, do I wait;
it is you, O Lord my God, who will answer.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:16 - For I said, “Only let them not rejoice over me,
who boast against me when my foot slips!”
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:17 - For I am ready to fall,

in company with men who work iniquity,
and let me not eat of their delicacies!

cease to do evil,

Israel, in whom I will be glorified.”[fn]

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 49:6 - he says:
“It is too light a thing that you should be my servant

and I was not rebellious;
I turned not backward.

I hid my face from you,
but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,”
says the LORD, your Redeemer.

and your labor for that which does not satisfy?
Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good,
and delight yourselves in rich food.

hear, that your soul may live;
and I will make with you an everlasting covenant,
my steadfast, sure love for David.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 55:8 - For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD.

and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 55:11 - so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth;

a monument and a name
better than sons and daughters;
I will give them an everlasting name
that shall not be cut off.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 56:6 - “And the foreigners who join themselves to the LORD,
to minister to him, to love the name of the LORD,
and to be his servants,
everyone who keeps the Sabbath and does not profane it,
and holds fast my covenant—
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 56:7 - these I will bring to my holy mountain,
and make them joyful in my house of prayer;
their burnt offerings and their sacrifices
will be accepted on my altar;
for my house shall be called a house of prayer
for all peoples.”
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 57:10 - You were wearied with the length of your way,
but you did not say, “It is hopeless”;

“Build up, build up, prepare the way,
remove every obstruction from my people's way.”

lift up your voice like a trumpet;
declare to my people their transgression,

the rams of Nebaioth shall minister to you;

in the courts of my sanctuary.”[fn]

who walk in a way that is not good,
following their own devices;
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 65:5 - who say, “Keep to yourself,

but his servants he will call by another name,

in that which I create;

no more shall be heard in it the sound of weeping
and the cry of distress.

for they shall be the offspring of the blessed of the LORD,

and bring their fears upon them,
because when I called, no one answered,

but they did what was evil in my eyes
and chose that in which I did not delight.”

to enjoy its fruits and its good things.

even though they are no gods?
But my people have changed their glory
for that which does not profit.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 2:13 - for my people have committed two evils:
they have forsaken me,
the fountain of living waters,
and hewed out cisterns for themselves,
broken cisterns that can hold no water.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 2:20 - “For long ago I broke your yoke

the whole land is laid waste.
Suddenly my tents are laid waste,
my curtains in a moment.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 4:22 - “For my people are foolish;
they know me not;
they are stupid children;
they have no understanding.
They are ‘wise'—in doing evil!
But how to do good they know not.”

stretching out her hands,
“Woe is me! I am fainting before murderers.”

declares the LORD,
and shall I not avenge myself
on a nation such as this?”

an uninhabited land.”

saying, ‘Peace, peace,'
when there is no peace.

and roll in ashes;
make mourning as for an only son,
most bitter lamentation,
for suddenly the destroyer
will come upon us.

not been restored?

and my eyes a fountain of tears,
that I might weep day and night
for the slain of the daughter of my people!

My wound is grievous.
But I said, “Truly this is an affliction,

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 11:10 - They have turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, who refused to hear my words. They have gone after other gods to serve them. The house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant that I made with their fathers.

in the gates of the land;
I have bereaved them; I have destroyed my people;

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 15:15 - O LORD, you know;
remember me and visit me,
and take vengeance for me on my persecutors.
In your forbearance take me not away;
know that for your sake I bear reproach.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 15:16 - Your words were found, and I ate them,

and the delight of my heart,
for I am called by your name,
O LORD, God of hosts.

refusing to be healed?

like waters that fail?

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 16:19 - O LORD, my strength and my stronghold,

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 17:14 - Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed;
save me, and I shall be saved,
for you are my praise.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 17:16 - I have not run away from being your shepherd,
nor have I desired the day of sickness.

Unchecked Copy BoxJer 18:10 - and if it does evil in my sight, not listening to my voice, then I will relent of the good that I had intended to do to it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 18:15 - But my people have forgotten me;
they make offerings to false gods;
they made them stumble in their ways,
in the ancient roads,
and to walk into side roads,
not the highway,
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 18:19 - Hear me, O LORD,
and listen to the voice of my adversaries.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 18:20 - Should good be repaid with evil?

Remember how I stood before you
to speak good for them,
to turn away your wrath from them.

a reproach and derision all day long.

let it not be blessed!
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 20:15 - Cursed be the man who brought the news to my father,
“A son is born to you,”
making him very glad.
Unchecked Copy BoxJer 20:17 - because he did not kill me in the womb;
