Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:12 - Then he had a dream, and behold, a [fn]ladder stood on the earth with its top touching heaven; and behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:14 - “And your seed will also be like the dust of the earth, and you will [fn]spread out to the west and to the east and to the north and to the south; and in you and in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:15 - “Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go. And I will bring you back to this land; for I will not forsake you until I have done what I have [fn]promised you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:16 - Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I did not know it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:20 - Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will keep me on this journey on which I am going, and will give me [fn]food to eat and garments to wear,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:2 - And he looked, and behold, a well in the field, and behold, three flocks of sheep were lying there beside it, for from that well they gave water to the flocks to drink. Now the stone on the mouth of the well was large.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:26 - But Laban said, “It is not [fn]the practice in our place to give the younger before the firstborn.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:34 - And she conceived again and bore a son and said, “Now this time my husband will be [fn]joined to me because I have borne him three sons.” Therefore he was named Levi.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:11 - Then Leah said, “[fn]How fortunate!” So she named him [fn]Gad.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:14 -

And in the days of the wheat harvest, Reuben went and found mandrakes 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 30:20 - And Leah said, “God has gifted me a good gift; this time my husband [fn]will honor me because I have borne him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:32 - let me pass through your entire flock today, removing from there every speckled and spotted sheep and every black [fn]one among the lambs and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and such shall be my wages.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:33 - “So my righteousness will answer for me later, when you come concerning my [fn]wages. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats and black among the lambs, if found with me, will be considered stolen.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:35 - So he removed on that day the striped and spotted male goats and all the speckled and spotted female goats, every one with white in it, and all the black ones among the sheep, and gave them into the [fn]care of his sons.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:38 - And he set the rods which he had peeled in front of the flocks in the trough, that is, in the watering channels, where the flocks came to drink; and they [fn]mated when they came to drink.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:40 - And Jacob separated the lambs, and he [fn]made the flocks face toward the striped and all the black in the flock of Laban; and he set his own herds apart and did not set them with Laban's flock.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:41 - Now it would be that, whenever the [fn]stronger of the flock [fn]were mating, Jacob would place the rods in the sight of the flock in the trough, so that they might [fn]mate by the rods;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:6 - “You also know that I have served your father with all my power.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:10 - “Now it happened at the time when the flock were [fn]mating that I lifted up my eyes and saw in a dream, and behold, the male goats which were [fn]mating were striped, speckled, and mottled.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:13 - ‘I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed a pillar, where you made a vow to Me; now arise, [fn]leave this land, and return to the land of your kin.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:14 - Then Rachel and Leah said to him, “Do we still have any portion or inheritance in our father's house?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:18 - and he drove away all his livestock and all his possessions which he had accumulated, his acquired livestock which he had accumulated in Paddan-aram, in order to go to the land of Canaan to his father Isaac.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:23 - so he took his [fn]relatives with him and pursued him a distance of seven days' journey, and he overtook him in the hill country of Gilead.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:25 -

So Laban caught up with Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country, and Laban with his [fn]relatives camped in the hill country of Gilead.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:33 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:35 - And she said to her father, “Let not my lord be angry that I cannot rise before you, for the manner of women is upon me.” So he searched but did not find the [fn]household idols.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:41 - “These twenty years I have been in your house; I served you fourteen years for your two daughters and six years for your flock, and you changed my wages ten times.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:54 - Then Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain and called his [fn]relatives to eat a [fn]meal; and they ate [fn]the meal and spent the night on the mountain.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:10 - [fn]I am unworthy of all the lovingkindness and of all the truth which You have shown to Your slave; for with my staff only I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two camps.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:19 - Then he commanded also the second and the third and all those who followed the flocks, saying, “After this manner you shall speak to Esau when you find him;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:20 - and you shall say, ‘Behold, your servant Jacob also is behind us.'” For he said, “I will appease his face with the present that goes before me. Then afterward I will see his face; perhaps he will lift up my face.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:21 - So the present passed on before him, while he himself spent that night in the camp.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:25 - And he saw that he had not prevailed against him, so he touched the socket of his thigh; and so the socket of Jacob's thigh was dislocated while he wrestled with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:2 - And he put the servant-women and their children first, and Leah and her children after them, and Rachel and Joseph after them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:14 - “Please let my lord pass on before his servant, and I will lead on slowly, according to the pace of the cattle that are before me and according to the pace of the children, until I come to my lord at Seir.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:16 - So Esau returned that day on his way to Seir.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:18 -

Now Jacob came safely to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Paddan-aram, and he camped before the city.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:5 - Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter; but his sons were with his livestock in the field, so Jacob kept silent until they came in.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:7 - Now the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were grieved, and they were very angry because he had done a [fn]disgraceful thing in Israel [fn]by lying with Jacob's daughter, for such a thing ought not to be done.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:10 - “Thus you shall [fn]live with us, and the land shall be open before you; [fn]live and trade in it and take possession of property in it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:15 - “Only on this condition will we consent to you: if you will become like us, in that every male among you be circumcised,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:19 - So the young man did not delay to do the thing because he was delighted with Jacob's daughter. Now he was more honored than all the household of his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:22 - “Only on this condition will the men consent to us to [fn]live with us, to become one people: that every male among us be circumcised as they are circumcised.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:23 - “Will not their livestock and what they acquire and all their cattle be ours? Only let us consent to them, and they will [fn]live with us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:25 -

Now it happened 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 unsuspecting city and killed every male.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:26 - And they killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the edge of the sword and took Dinah from Shechem's house and went away.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:27 - Jacob's sons came upon the slain and plundered the city because they had defiled their sister.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:28 - They took their flocks and their herds and their donkeys and that which was in the city and that which was in the field;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:29 - and they captured and plundered all their wealth and all their little ones and their wives, even all that was in the houses.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:30 - Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble on me by making me odious among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and [fn]my men being few in number, they will gather together against me and strike me, and I will be destroyed, I and my household.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:1 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:3 - and let us arise and go up to Bethel, and I will make an altar there to God, who answered me in the day of my distress and has been with me [fn]wherever I have gone.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:4 - So they gave to Jacob all the foreign gods which [fn]they had and the rings which were in their ears, and Jacob hid them under the [fn]oak which was near Shechem.
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 35:7 - And he built an altar there and called the place [fn]El-bethel, because there God had revealed Himself to him when he fled [fn]from his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:9 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:14 - And Jacob set up a pillar in the place where He had spoken with him, a pillar of stone, and he poured out a drink offering on it; he also poured oil on it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:15 - So Jacob named the place where God had spoken with him, [fn]Bethel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:16 -

Then they journeyed from Bethel; and there was still some distance to go to Ephrath, and Rachel gave birth, and she [fn]suffered severely in her labor.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:17 - Now it happened that when she was in severe labor the midwife said to her, “Do not fear, for now you have another son.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:18 - Now it happened 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 -

Now it happened while Israel was dwelling in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine, and Israel heard of it.

And there were twelve sons of Jacob

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:26 -

and the sons of Zilpah, Leah's servant-woman:

Gad and Asher.

These are the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-aram.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:27 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:5 - and Oholibamah bore Jeush and Jalam and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:6 -

Then Esau took his wives and his sons and his daughters and all [fn]his household, and his livestock and all his cattle and all his acquired goods, which he had accumulated in the land of Canaan, and he went to a 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 generations of Esau the father of [fn]the Edomites in the hill country of Seir.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:16 - chief Korah, chief Gatam, chief Amalek. These are the chiefs [fn]descended from Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Adah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:17 - These are the sons of Reuel, Esau's son: chief Nahath, chief Zerah, chief Shammah, chief Mizzah. These are the chiefs [fn]descended from Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Esau's wife Basemath.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:21 - and Dishon and Ezer and Dishan. These are the chiefs [fn]descended from the Horites, the sons of Seir in the land of Edom.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:24 - These are the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah—he is the Anah who found the hot springs in the wilderness when he was pasturing the donkeys of his father Zibeon.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:30 - chief Dishon, chief Ezer, chief Dishan. These are the chiefs [fn]descended from the Horites, according to their various chiefs in the land of Seir.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:31 -

Now these are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king of the sons of Israel reigned.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:32 - And Bela the son of Beor became king in Edom, and the name of his city was Dinhabah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:35 - Then Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who struck down Midian in the field of Moab, became king in his place; and the name of his city was Avith.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:40 -

Now these are the names of the chiefs [fn]descended from Esau, according to their families and their places, by their names: chief Timna, chief [fn]Alvah, chief Jetheth,

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:43 - chief Magdiel, chief Iram. These are the chiefs of Edom (that is, Esau, the father of [fn]the Edomites), according to their places of habitation in the land of their possession.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:1 -

Now Jacob lived in the land [fn]where his father had sojourned, in the land of Canaan.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:7 - Indeed, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and behold, my sheaf rose up and also stood upright; and behold, your sheaves gathered around and bowed down to my sheaf.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:13 - And Israel said to Joseph, “Are not your brothers 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 37:15 -

And a man found him, and behold, he was wandering in the field; and the man asked him, “[fn]What are you seeking?”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:17 - Then the man said, “They have journeyed from here; for I heard them saying, ‘Let us go to Dothan.'” So Joseph went after his brothers and found them at Dothan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:22 - Reuben further said to them, “Shed no blood. Cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but do not put forth your hands against him”—that he might deliver him out of their hands to return him to his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:29 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:1 -

Now it happened at that time that Judah went down from his brothers and turned aside to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:5 - And she bore still another son, and she named him Shelah; and it was at Chezib [fn]that she bore him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:11 - Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Live as a widow in your father's house until my son Shelah grows up”; for he [fn]thought, “I am afraid lest he also die like his brothers.” So Tamar went and lived in her father's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:14 - So she removed her widow's garments from herself and covered herself with a [fn]veil and wrapped herself. And she sat at the entrance 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 38:18 - Then he said, “What pledge shall I give you?” And she said, “Your signet and your cord and your staff that is in your hand.” So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she conceived by him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:20 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:21 - So he asked the men of her place, saying, “Where is the cult prostitute who was by the road at Enaim?” But they said, “There has been no cult prostitute here.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:24 -

Now it happened about three months later that it was told to Judah saying, “[fn]Your daughter-in-law Tamar has played the harlot, and behold, she is also with child by harlotry.” Then Judah said, “Bring her out and let her be burned!”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:25 - It was while she was being brought out that she sent to her father-in-law, saying, “I am with child by the man to whom these things belong.” And she said, “Please recognize this and see, whose signet ring and cords and staff are these?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:27 -

Now it happened at the time she was giving birth, that behold, there were twins in her womb.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:28 - And it happened, while she was giving birth, one 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 39:2 - And Yahweh was with Joseph, so he became a [fn]successful man. And he was in the house of his master, the Egyptian.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:3 - Now his master saw that Yahweh was with him and how Yahweh caused all that he did to succeed in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:5 - Now it happened that from the time he appointed him overseer in his house and over all that he owned, Yahweh blessed the Egyptian's house on account of Joseph; thus the blessing of Yahweh 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, “Behold, with me here, my master [fn]does not concern himself with anything in the house, and he has given all that he owns into my hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:9 - [fn]There is no one greater in this house than I, and he has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do this great evil and sin against God?”
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 men of the household was there inside.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:12 - Then she seized him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me!” And he left his garment in her hand and fled and went outside.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:13 - Now it happened, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled outside,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:14 - that she called to the men of her household and spoke to them, saying, “See, he has brought in a [fn]Hebrew to us to laugh at us; he came in to me to lie with me, and I [fn]screamed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:15 - “Now it happened that 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 39:20 - So Joseph's master took him and put him into the jail, the place where the king's prisoners were confined; and he was there in the jail.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:22 - So the chief jailer gave into the hand of Joseph all the prisoners who were in the jail; so that whatever was done there, he was [fn]the one who did it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:23 - The chief jailer did not supervise anything under Joseph's hand because Yahweh was with him; and whatever he did, Yahweh made to succeed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:3 - So he put them in confinement in the house of the captain of the bodyguard, in the jail, the same place where Joseph was imprisoned.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:4 - And the captain of the bodyguard appointed Joseph as overseer over them, and he [fn]attended to them; and they were in confinement for [fn]some time.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:5 - Then the cupbearer and the baker for the king of Egypt, who were confined in jail, both had a dream the same night, each man with his own dream and each dream with its own interpretation.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:7 - So he asked Pharaoh's officials who were with him in confinement in his master's house, saying, “Why are your faces so sad today?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:9 -

So the chief cupbearer recounted his dream to Joseph and said to him, “In my dream, [fn]behold, there was a vine in front of me;

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 40:11 - “Now Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; so I took the grapes and squeezed them into Pharaoh's cup, and I put the cup into Pharaoh's [fn]hand.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:14 - “Only remember me when it goes well with you, and please show me lovingkindness by remembering me to Pharaoh and getting me out of this house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:17 - and in the top basket there were some of all [fn]sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, and the birds were eating them out of the basket on my head.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:20 -

Thus it happened on the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made 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 41:2 - And behold, from the Nile there came up seven cows, sleek and [fn]fat; and they grazed in the reeds.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:5 - He again fell asleep and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven ears of grain came up on a single stalk, plump and good.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:10 - “Pharaoh was furious with his servants, and he put me in confinement in the house of the captain of the bodyguard, both me and the chief baker.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:11 - “And we had a dream [fn]on the same night, [fn]he and I; each of us dreamed according to the interpretation of his own dream.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:17 - So Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, “In my dream, behold, I was standing on the bank of the Nile;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:18 - and behold, seven cows, [fn]fat and sleek came up out of the Nile, and they grazed in the reeds.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:19 - “And behold, seven other cows came up after them, poor and very ugly and lean, such as I had never seen in all the land of Egypt, in regard to [fn]ugliness;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:22 - “Then I saw also in my dream, and behold, seven ears, full and good, came up on a single stalk;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:29 - “Behold, seven years of great abundance are coming in all the land of Egypt;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:30 - and after them seven years of famine will arise, and all the abundance will be forgotten in the land of Egypt, and the famine will [fn]ravage the land,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:35 - “Then let them gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and let them store up the grain for food in the cities under Pharaoh's authority, and let them keep watch over it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:36 - “And let the food be appointed for the land for the seven years of famine which will happen in the land of Egypt, so that the land will not be cut off during the famine.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:38 - Then Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find a man like this, in whom is a divine spirit?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:47 - And during the seven years of plenty the land brought forth [fn]abundantly.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:48 - So he gathered all the food of these seven years which happened in the land of Egypt and placed the food in the cities; he placed in every city the food from its own surrounding fields.
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 -

Then the seven years of plenty which had been 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. So there was famine in all the lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:57 - Now all the earth also came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph because the famine was severe in all the earth.
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 42:2 - Then he said, “Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt; go down there and buy some for us from there, so that we may live and not die.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:5 - So the sons of Israel came to buy grain among those who were coming, for the famine was in the land of Canaan also.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:13 - So 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 more.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:15 - by this you will be tested: by the life of Pharaoh, you shall not go from this place unless your youngest brother comes here!
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:17 - Then he put them all together in prison for three days.
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, bring grain for the famine of your households,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:21 - Then they said to one another, “Surely we are guilty concerning our brother because we saw the distress of his soul when he begged us, yet we would not listen; therefore this distress has come upon us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:28 - So he said to his brothers, “My money has been returned, and behold, it is even in my sack.” And their hearts [fn]sank, and they turned [fn]trembling to one another, saying, “What is this that God has done to us?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:30 - “The man, the lord of the land, spoke harshly with us and took us for spies of the country.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:32 - ‘We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is with our father today in the land of Canaan.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:33 - “Then 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 happened that they were emptying their sacks, and behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack; and they and their father saw their bundles of money, and they feared.

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 remains. If harm should befall him on the journey on which you are going, then you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in sorrow.”
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 bring them down to the man as a present, a little [fn]balm and a little honey, [fn]aromatic gum and [fn]myrrh, pistachio nuts and almonds.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:12 - “Now take double the money in your hand, and take back in your hand the money that was put back in the mouth of your sacks; perhaps it was a mistake.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:15 - So the men took this present, and they took double the money in their hand, and Benjamin; and they arose and went down to Egypt and stood before Joseph.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:18 - And 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, that he may [fn]seek occasion against us and fall upon us and take us for slaves with our donkeys.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:19 - So they came near to 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 lodging place, that we opened our sacks, and behold, each man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in [fn]full. So we have brought it back in our hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:23 - And he said, “[fn]Be well, do not be afraid. Your God and the God of your father has given you treasure in your sacks; your money has come to me.” Then he brought Simeon out to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:26 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:5 - ‘Is not this the one from which my lord drinks and which he indeed uses to interpret omens? You have done evil in doing this.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:8 - “Behold, the money which we found in the mouth of our sacks we have brought back to you from the land of Canaan. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:12 - So he searched, beginning with the oldest and ending with the youngest, and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:29 - ‘If you take this one also from [fn]me and harm befalls him, you will bring my gray hair down to Sheol in [fn]evil.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:31 - so it will be that when he sees that the boy is not with us, he will die. Thus your servants will bring the gray hair of your servant our father down to Sheol in sorrow.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:6 - “For the famine has been in the land these two years, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:10 - “And you shall [fn]live in the land of Goshen, and you shall be near me, you and your children and your children's children and your flocks and your herds and all that you have.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:13 - “So you must tell my father of all my glory in Egypt and all that you have seen; and you must hurry and bring my father down here.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:24 -

So he sent his brothers away, and they departed. And he said to them, “Do not be stirred up on the journey.”

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 46:6 - And they took their livestock and their possessions, which they had accumulated in the land of Canaan, and they came to Egypt, Jacob and all his seed with him:
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:12 - The sons of Judah: Er and Onan and Shelah and 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 46:15 - These are the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan-aram, with his daughter Dinah; [fn]all his sons and his daughters numbered thirty-three.
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 46:27 - and the sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt were [fn]two; all the persons of the house of Jacob, who came to Egypt, were seventy.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:31 - And Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, “I will go up and tell Pharaoh and say to him, ‘My brothers and my father's household, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:34 - then you shall say, ‘Your servants have been [fn]keepers of livestock from our youth and until now, both we and our fathers,' that you may [fn]live in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians.”
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 47:4 - And they said to Pharaoh, “We have come to sojourn in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants' flocks, for the famine is heavy in the land of Canaan. So now, please let your servants [fn]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 47:6 - “The land of Egypt is [fn]at your disposal; have your father and your brothers settle in the best of the land, let them settle in the land of Goshen; and if you know any excellent men among them, then [fn]put them in charge of my livestock.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:11 - So Joseph settled his father and his brothers and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:13 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:14 - And Joseph gathered all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan for the grain which they bought, and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.
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 - Then that year came to an end. And they came to him the [fn]next year and said to him, “We will not hide from my lord that our money has come to an end, and the [fn]livestock are my lord's. There is nothing left [fn]for my lord except our bodies and our land.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:22 - Only the land of the priests he did not buy, for the priests had an allotment from Pharaoh, and they ate off the allotment which Pharaoh gave them. Therefore, they did not sell their land.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:24 - “And it will be, 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 [fn]lived in the land of Egypt, [fn]in Goshen, and they took possession of property in it and were fruitful and became very numerous.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:28 - And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years; so the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were 147 years.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:29 -

Then the days for Israel to die drew near, and he called his son Joseph and said to him, “Please, if I have found favor in your sight, place now your hand under my thigh and deal with me in lovingkindness and truth. Please do not bury me in Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:30 - “But I will lie down with my fathers, and you will 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 48:3 - Then Jacob said to Joseph, “[fn]God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan and blessed me,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:5 - “So now your two sons, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh shall be mine, as Reuben and Simeon are.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:6 - “But your kin that [fn]have been born 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; and I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).”
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 48:16 -

The angel who has redeemed me from all evil,

Bless these boys;

And may my name [fn]live on in them,

And the [fn]names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac;

And may they grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.”

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:20 - And he blessed them that day, saying,

“By you Israel will pronounce blessing, saying,

‘May God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh!'”

Thus he put Ephraim before Manasseh.

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 49:6 -

“Let my soul not enter into their council;

Let not my glory be united with their assembly;

Because in their anger they killed [fn]men,

And in their self-will they hamstrung [fn]oxen.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:7 -

“Cursed be their anger, for it is strong;

And their wrath, for it is cruel.

I will divide them amongst Jacob,

And scatter them in Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:11 -

[fn]He ties his foal to the vine,

And his donkey's colt to the choice vine;

He washes his garments in wine,

And his robes in the blood of grapes.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:16 -

“Dan shall render justice to his people,

As one of the tribes of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:21 -

“Naphtali is a doe let loose,

He gives beautiful words.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:29 - Then he commanded them and said to them, “I am about to be gathered to my people; bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:30 - in the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought along with the field from Ephron the Hittite as a possession for a burial site.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:32 - the field and the cave that is in it, purchased from the sons of Heth.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:5 - ‘My father made me swear, saying, “Behold, I am about to die; in my grave which I dug for myself in the land of Canaan, there you shall bury me.” So now, please let me go up and bury my father; then I will return.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:8 - and all the household of Joseph and his brothers and his father's household; they left only their little ones and their flocks and their herds in the land of Goshen.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:11 - Now the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning at [fn]the threshing floor of Atad, and they said, “This is an [fn]immense [fn]mourning for the Egyptians.” Therefore it was named [fn]Abel-mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:13 - Indeed, his sons carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre, which Abraham had bought along with the field for his possession as a burial site from Ephron the Hittite.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:22 -

Now Joseph stayed in Egypt, he and his father's household, and Joseph lived 110 years.

Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:25 - Then Joseph made the sons of Israel swear, saying, “God will surely [fn]take care of you, and you shall carry my bones up from here.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:26 - So Joseph died at the age of 110 years; and they embalmed him, and he was placed in a coffin in Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:5 - And all the [fn]persons who came from the loins of Jacob were seventy [fn]in number, but Joseph was already in Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:11 - So they appointed taskmasters over them to afflict them with [fn]hard labors. And they built for Pharaoh storage cities, Pithom and Raamses.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:14 - and they made their lives bitter with [fn]hard slave labor in mortar and bricks and in all kinds of slave labor in the field, all their slave labor which they brutally [fn]compelled them to do.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:2 - And the woman conceived and bore a son; and she saw [fn]that he was [fn]beautiful, so she hid him for three months.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:5 -

And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the Nile, with her young women walking alongside the Nile; and she saw the [fn]ark among the reeds and sent her maidservant, and she took it to her.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:6 - Then she opened it and [fn]saw the child. And behold, the [fn]boy was crying. And she had pity on him and said, “This is one of the Hebrews' children.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:11 -

Now it happened in those days, that Moses had grown up. And he went out to his brothers and looked on their [fn]hard labors. And he saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew, one of his brothers.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:12 - So he turned this way and that, and he saw that there was no one around. So he struck down the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:15 - And Pharaoh heard of this matter, so he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the presence of Pharaoh and settled in the land of Midian, and he [fn]sat down by a well.
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 [fn]sojourner in a foreign land.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:2 - And the angel of [fn]Yahweh appeared to him in a blazing fire from the midst of the bush; and he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, yet the bush was not consumed.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:5 - Then He said, “Do not come near here. Remove your sandals from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:7 -

And Yahweh said, “I have surely seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt, and I have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sufferings.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:12 - And He said, “Certainly 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]serve God at this mountain.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:16 - “Go and gather the elders of Israel together and say to them, ‘Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, “[fn]I indeed care about you and what has been done to you in Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:20 - “So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wondrous deeds which I shall do in the midst of it; and after that he will let you go.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:2 - And Yahweh said to him, “What is this in your hand?” And he said, “A staff.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:4 - And Yahweh said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand and grasp it by its tail”—so he stretched out his hand and took hold of it, and it became a staff in his [fn]hand
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:14 - Then the anger of Yahweh burned against Moses, and He said, “Is there not your brother Aaron the Levite? I know that [fn]he can certainly speak. And moreover, behold, he is coming out to meet you. And he will see you and be glad in his heart.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:17 - “And you shall take in your hand this staff, with which you shall do the signs.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:18 -

Then Moses went and returned to [fn]Jethro his father-in-law 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 - And Yahweh said to Moses in Midian, “Go, return 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 Yahweh said to Moses, “When you go to return to Egypt, see to it that all the miraculous wonders which I have put in your hand, that you do them before Pharaoh; but as for Me, I will [fn]harden his heart with strength so that he will not let the people go.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:24 -

Now it happened at the lodging place on the way that Yahweh encountered him and sought to put him to death.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 4:27 -

Then Yahweh said to Aaron, “Go to meet Moses in the wilderness.” So he went and encountered him at the mountain of God and kissed him.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:1 -

And afterward Moses and Aaron came and said to Pharaoh, “Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, ‘Let My people go that they may celebrate a feast to Me in the wilderness.'”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:9 - “Let their slavery be hard on the men, and let them work at it so that they will have no regard for false words.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:12 - So the people scattered through all the land of Egypt to gather stubble for straw.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 5:19 - Then the foremen of the sons of Israel saw that they were in trouble [fn]because they were told, “You must not reduce [fn]your daily amount of bricks.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:1 -

Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Now you shall see what I will do to Pharaoh; for by a strong hand he will let them go, and by a strong hand he will drive them out of his land.”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:4 - “And I also established My covenant with them, to give them the land of Canaan, the [fn]land in which they sojourned.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:6 - “Say, therefore, to the sons of Israel, ‘I am Yahweh, and I will bring you out from under the hard labors of the Egyptians, and I will deliver you from their slavery. I will also redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:8 - ‘And I will bring you to the land which I [fn]swore to give to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, and I will give it to you for a possession; I am Yahweh.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 6:28 -

Now it happened on the day when Yahweh spoke to Moses in the land of Egypt,

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:3 - “But I will harden Pharaoh's heart with stiffness that I may multiply My signs and My [fn]wonders in the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:15 - “Go to Pharaoh in the morning [fn]as he is going out to the water, and station yourself to meet him on the bank of the Nile; and you shall take in your hand the staff that was turned into a serpent.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:16 - “And you shall say to him, ‘Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, sent me to you, saying, “Let My people go, that they may serve Me in the wilderness. But behold, you have not listened until now.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:17 - ‘Thus says Yahweh, “By this you shall know that I am Yahweh: behold, I am about to strike [fn]the water that is in the Nile with the staff that is in my hand, and it will be turned to blood.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:18 - “And the fish that are in the Nile will die, and the Nile will [fn]become foul, and the Egyptians will be weary of drinking water from the Nile.”'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:19 - Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their [fn]streams, and over their pools and over all their reservoirs of water, that they may become blood; and there will be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:20 -

So Moses and Aaron did thus, as Yahweh had commanded. And he raised up [fn]the staff and struck the water that was in the Nile, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants, and all the water that was in the Nile was turned to blood.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 7:21 - And the fish that were in the Nile died, and the Nile [fn]became foul, so that the Egyptians could not drink water from the Nile. And the blood was through all the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:3 - “And the Nile will swarm with frogs, and they will go up and come into your house and into your bedroom and on your bed and into the houses of your servants and on your people and into your ovens and into your kneading bowls.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:9 - And Moses said to Pharaoh, “[fn]May the honor be yours to tell me: when shall I entreat for you and for your servants and for your people, that the frogs be cut off from you and your houses, that they may remain only in the Nile?”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:11 - “And the frogs will depart from you and your houses and your servants and your people; they will remain only in the Nile.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:16 -

Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Say to Aaron, ‘Stretch out your staff and strike the dust of the earth, that it may become [fn]gnats through all the land of Egypt.'”

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:17 - And they did so; and Aaron stretched out his hand with his staff and struck the dust of the earth, and there were [fn]gnats on man and beast. All the dust of the earth became [fn]gnats through all the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:18 - Then [fn]the magicians did the same with their secret arts in order to bring forth [fn]gnats, but they could not; so there were [fn]gnats on man and beast.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:20 -

And Yahweh said to Moses, “Rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh [fn]as he comes out to the water, and you shall say to him, ‘Thus says Yahweh, “Let My people go, that they may serve Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:22 - “But on that day I will make a distinction for the land of Goshen, where My people are [fn]living, so that no swarms of flies will be there, that you may know that [fn]I, Yahweh, am in the midst of the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:23 - “And I will [fn]put a division between My people and your people. Tomorrow this sign will happen.”'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:25 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 8:28 - And Pharaoh said, “I will let you go, that you may sacrifice to Yahweh your God in the wilderness; only you shall not go very far away. Entreat for me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:3 - behold, the hand of Yahweh [fn]will come with a very heavy pestilence on your livestock which are in the field, on the horses, on the donkeys, on the camels, on the herds, and on the flocks.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:4 - “But Yahweh will make a distinction between the livestock of Israel and the livestock of Egypt, so that nothing will die of all that belongs to the sons of Israel.”'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:5 - Yahweh also set a definite time, saying, “Tomorrow Yahweh will do this thing in the land.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:9 - “And it will become fine dust over all the land of Egypt, and it will become boils breaking out with sores on man and beast through all the land of Egypt.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:10 - So they took the soot from the kiln and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses tossed it toward the sky, and it became boils breaking out with sores on man and beast.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:11 - And the [fn]magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils, for the boils were on the magicians [fn]as well as on all the Egyptians.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:14 - “For this time I will send all My plagues against your heart and amongst your servants and your people, so that you may know that there is no one like Me in all the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:16 - “But, indeed, for this reason I have caused you to stand, in order to show you My power and in order to recount My name through all the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:18 - “Behold, about this time tomorrow, I will rain down very heavy hail, such as has not been seen in Egypt from the day it was founded [fn]until now.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:19 - “So now, send, bring your livestock and whatever you have in the field to safety. Every man and beast that is found in the field and is not brought home, the hail will come down on them, and they will die.”'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:21 - but he who did not [fn]consider in his heart the word of Yahweh [fn]left his servants and his livestock in the field.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:24 - So there was hail, and fire [fn]flashing continually in the midst of the hail, very heavy, such as had not been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:25 - And the hail struck all that was in the field through all the land of Egypt, from man to beast; the hail also struck every plant of the field and shattered every tree of the field.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 9:26 - Only in the land of Goshen, where the sons of Israel were, there was no hail.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:2 - and that you may recount in the [fn]hearing of your son and of your grandson, how I dealt severely with the Egyptians, and how I [fn]put My signs among them, that you may know that I am Yahweh.”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:6 - ‘Then your houses and the houses of all your servants and the houses of all the Egyptians shall be filled, something which neither your fathers nor your grandfathers have seen, from the day that they [fn]came upon the earth until this day.'” And he turned and went out from Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:15 - For they covered the surface of the whole land, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every plant of the land and all the fruit of the trees that the hail had left. Thus nothing green was left on tree or plant of the field through all the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 10:19 - So Yahweh changed the wind to a very strong west wind which took up the locusts and drove them into the [fn]Red Sea; not one locust remained in all the territory of Egypt.
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 places of habitation.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 11:5 - and all the firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of the Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the servant-girl who is behind the millstones; and all the firstborn of the cattle.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 11:7 - ‘But for any of the sons of Israel a dog will not even [fn]bark, whether against man or beast, that you may know how Yahweh makes a distinction between Egypt and Israel.'
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 11:9 -

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

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

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

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:2 - “This month shall be the beginning of months for you; it is to be the first month of the year to you.
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; according to [fn]what each man should eat, you are to [fn]apportion the lamb.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:7 - ‘Moreover, they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel [fn]of the houses in which they eat it.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:9 - ‘Do not eat any of it raw or boiled at all with water, but rather roasted with fire, both its head and its legs along with its entrails.
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 burn with fire.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:11 - ‘Now you shall eat it in this manner: with your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in haste—it is the Passover of Yahweh.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:12 - ‘And I will go through the land of Egypt on that night and will strike down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments—I am Yahweh.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:13 - ‘And the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and I will see the blood, and I will pass over you, and there shall be no plague among you [fn]to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:16 - ‘Now on the first day there shall be a holy convocation, and on the seventh day there shall be a holy convocation for you; no work at all shall be done on them, except what must be eaten [fn]by every person, that alone may be done by you.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:17 - ‘You shall also keep the Feast of Unleavened Bread, for on this very day I brought your hosts out of the land of Egypt; therefore you shall keep this day throughout your generations as [fn]a perpetual statute.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:19 - ‘Seven days there shall be no leaven found in your houses; for whoever eats what is leavened, that [fn]person shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he is a sojourner or a native of the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:20 - ‘You shall not eat anything leavened; in all your places of habitation you shall eat unleavened bread.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:27 - that you shall say, ‘It is a Passover sacrifice to Yahweh who passed over the houses of the sons of Israel in Egypt when He smote the Egyptians, but delivered our homes.'” And the people bowed low and worshiped.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 12:29 -

Now it happened at midnight that Yahweh struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the [fn]dungeon, and all the firstborn of cattle.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:5 - And they celebrated the Passover in the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month, at twilight, in the wilderness of Sinai; according to all that Yahweh had commanded Moses, so the sons of Israel did.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:6 - But there were some men who were unclean because of a [fn]dead person, so that they could not celebrate Passover on that day; so they came near before Moses and Aaron on that day.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:7 - And those men said to him, “We are unclean because of a [fn]dead person. But why are we restrained from bringing near the offering of Yahweh at its appointed time among the sons of Israel?”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:10 - “Speak to the sons of Israel, saying, ‘If any one of you or of your generations becomes unclean because of a dead [fn]person, or is on a distant journey, he may, however, celebrate the Passover to Yahweh.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:11 - ‘In the second month on the fourteenth day at twilight, they shall observe it; they shall eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:13 - ‘But the man who is clean and is not on a journey, and yet [fn]neglects to celebrate the Passover, that [fn]person shall then be cut off from his people, for he did not bring near the offering of Yahweh at its appointed time. That man will bear his sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:14 - ‘If a sojourner sojourns among you and [fn]celebrates the Passover to Yahweh, according to the statute of the Passover and according to its judgment, so he shall do; you shall have one statute, both for the sojourner and for the native of the land.'”

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 9:18 - At the [fn]command of Yahweh the sons of Israel would set out, and at the [fn]command of Yahweh they would camp; as long as the cloud settled over the tabernacle, they remained camped.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:11 -

Now it happened in the second year, in the second month, on the twentieth of the month, that the cloud was lifted from over the [fn]tabernacle of the testimony;

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:12 - and the sons of Israel set out on their journeys from the wilderness of Sinai. Then the cloud settled down in the wilderness of Paran.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:13 - So they moved out for the first time according to the [fn]command of Yahweh by the hand of Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:31 - Then he said, “Please do not leave us, inasmuch as you know where we should camp in the wilderness, and you will be as eyes for us.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:34 - Now the cloud of Yahweh was over them by day when they set out from the camp.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:35 -

Then it happened when the ark set out that Moses said,

“Rise up, O Yahweh!

And let Your enemies be scattered,

And let those who hate You flee [fn]before You.”

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 10:36 -

And when it came to rest, he said,

“Return, O Yahweh,

To the myriad thousands of Israel.”

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:1 -

Now the people became like those who complain of calamity in the ears of Yahweh. And Yahweh heard it and His anger was kindled, and the fire of Yahweh burned among them and consumed some of the outskirts of the camp.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:3 - So the name of that place was called [fn]Taberah because the fire of Yahweh burned among them.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:4 -

And the rabble who were among them [fn]had greedy desires; and also the sons of Israel wept again and said, “Who will give us [fn]meat to eat?

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:5 - “We remember the fish which we used to eat free in Egypt, the cucumbers and the melons and the leeks and the onions and the garlic,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:8 - The people would go about and gather it and grind it [fn]between two millstones or beat it in the mortar, and boil it in the pot and make cakes with it; and its taste was as the taste of [fn]cakes baked with oil.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:12 - “Was it I who conceived all this people? Was it I who gave birth to them, that You should say to me, ‘Carry them in your bosom as a [fn]nurse carries a nursing baby, to the land which You swore to their fathers'?
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:18 - “And say to the people, ‘Set yourselves apart as holy for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat; for you have wept in the ears of Yahweh, saying, “Oh that someone would give us meat to eat! For it was good for us in Egypt.” Therefore Yahweh will give you meat, and you shall eat.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:20 - [fn]but a whole month, until it comes out of your nostrils and becomes loathsome to you; because you have rejected Yahweh who is among you and have wept before Him, saying, “Why did we ever go out from Egypt?”'”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:21 - But Moses said, “The people, among whom I am, are 600,000 on foot; yet You have said, ‘I will give them meat, so that they may eat for a whole month.'
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:25 - Then Yahweh came down in the cloud and spoke to him; and He took of the Spirit who was upon him and placed Him upon the seventy elders. And when the Spirit rested upon them, they prophesied. But they did not do it again.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:26 -

But two men had remained in the camp; the name of one was Eldad and the name of the [fn]other Medad. And the Spirit rested upon them (now they were among those who had been registered, but had not gone out to the tent), and they prophesied in the camp.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:27 - So a young man ran and told Moses and said, “Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:33 - While the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the anger of Yahweh was kindled against the people, and Yahweh struck the people with a very severe plague.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 11:35 - From Kibroth-hattaavah the people set out for Hazeroth, and they [fn]remained at Hazeroth.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:5 - Then Yahweh came down in a pillar of cloud and stood at the doorway of the tent, and He called [fn]Aaron and Miriam. And then both came forward,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:6 - and He said,

“Hear now My words:

If there is a prophet among you,

I, Yahweh, shall make Myself known to him in a vision.

I shall speak with him in a dream.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:7 -

“Not so, with My servant Moses,

He is faithful in all My household;

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:8 -

With him I speak mouth to mouth,

Indeed clearly, and not in riddles,

And he beholds the form of Yahweh.

Why then were you not afraid

To speak against My servant, against Moses?”

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 12:16 -

Afterward, however, the people set out from Hazeroth and camped in the wilderness of Paran.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 13:19 - “And how is the land in which they live, is it good or bad? And how are the cities in which they live, are they [fn]like open camps or with fortifications?
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 13:20 - “And how is the land, is it fat or lean? Are there trees in it or not? [fn]Make an effort then to get some of the fruit of the land.” Now the time was the time of the first ripe grapes.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 13:29 - “Amalek is living in the land of the Negev and the Hittites and the Jebusites and the Amorites are living in the hill country, and the Canaanites are living by the sea and by the side of the Jordan.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 13:32 - So they gave out to the sons of Israel a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying, “The land, which we have passed through to spy out on, is a land that devours its [fn]inhabitants; and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great size.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:2 - And all the sons of Israel grumbled against Moses and Aaron; and the whole congregation said to them, “Would that we had died in the land of Egypt! Or would that we had died in this wilderness!
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:3 - “And why is Yahweh bringing us into this land, to fall by the sword? Our wives and our little ones will become plunder; would it not be better for us to return to Egypt?”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:9 - “But as for you, only do not rebel against Yahweh; and do not fear the people of the land, for they are our [fn]bread. Their [fn]protection has been removed from them, and Yahweh is with us; do not fear them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:10 - But all the congregation said to stone them with stones. Then the glory of Yahweh appeared in the tent of meeting to all the sons of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:11 -

Yahweh said to Moses, “How long will this people spurn Me? And how long will they not believe in Me, despite all the signs which I have done in their midst?

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:14 - and they will tell it to the inhabitants of this land. They have heard that You, O Yahweh, are in the midst of this people, for You, O Yahweh, are seen eye to eye, while Your cloud stands over them; and You go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:16 - ‘Because Yahweh was not able to bring this people into the land which He swore to them, therefore He slaughtered them in the wilderness.'
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:22 - “Surely all the men who have seen My glory and My signs which I have done in Egypt and in the wilderness, yet have put Me to the test these ten times and have not listened to My voice,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:24 - “But My servant Caleb, because he has had a different spirit and has followed Me fully, [fn]I will bring into the land [fn]which he entered, and his seed shall take possession of it.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:25 - “Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites live in the valleys; turn tomorrow and set out to the wilderness by the way of the [fn]Red Sea.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:29 - your corpses will fall in this wilderness, even all your [fn]numbered men, according to your complete number from twenty years old and upward, who have grumbled against Me.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:31 - ‘Your little ones, however, who you said would become plunder—I will bring them in, so that they will know the land which you have rejected.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:32 - ‘But as for you, your corpses will fall in this wilderness.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:33 - ‘And your sons shall be shepherds for forty years in the wilderness, and they will [fn]suffer for your [fn]unfaithfulness, until your corpses come to an end in the wilderness.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:35 - ‘I, Yahweh, have spoken, surely this I will do to all this evil congregation who are gathered together against Me. In this wilderness they shall come to an end, and there they will die.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:37 - even those men who brought out the very bad report of the land died by a plague before Yahweh.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:43 - “For the Amalekites and the Canaanites will be there in front of you, and you will fall by the sword, inasmuch as you have turned back from following Yahweh. And Yahweh will not be with you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 14:45 - Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who lived in that hill country came down, and struck them and beat them down as far as Hormah.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:3 - then make an offering by fire to Yahweh, a burnt offering or a sacrifice to [fn]fulfill a special vow, or as a freewill offering or in your appointed times, to make a soothing aroma to Yahweh, from the herd or from the flock.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:4 - ‘And the one who brings his offering near shall bring near to Yahweh a grain offering of one-tenth of an [fn]ephah of fine flour mixed with one-fourth of a [fn]hin of oil,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:6 - ‘Or for a ram you shall prepare as a grain offering two-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-third of a hin of oil;
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:9 - then you shall bring near with the bull from the herd a grain offering of three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with one-half a hin of oil;
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:14 - ‘And if a sojourner sojourns with you, or one who may be among you throughout your generations, and he [fn]offers an offering by fire as a soothing aroma to Yahweh, just as you do so he shall do.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:15 - As for the assembly, there shall be one statute for you and for the sojourner who sojourns with you, a perpetual statute throughout your generations; as you are, so shall the sojourner be before Yahweh.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:16 - ‘There shall be one law and one judgment for you and for the sojourner who sojourns with you.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:18 - “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘When you enter the land where I am going to bring you,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:23 - even all that Yahweh has commanded you by the hand of Moses, from the day when Yahweh commanded and onward throughout your generations,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:29 - ‘You shall have one law for him who does anything unintentionally, for him who is native among the sons of Israel and for the sojourner who sojourns among them.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:30 - ‘But the person who does anything with a high hand, whether he is native or a sojourner, that one is blaspheming Yahweh; and that person shall be cut off from among his people.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:31 - ‘Because he has despised the word of Yahweh and has broken His commandment, that person shall be completely cut off; his [fn]guilt will be on him.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:32 -

Now the sons of Israel were in the wilderness, and they found a man gathering wood on the sabbath day.

Unchecked Copy BoxNum 15:39 - “And it shall be a tassel for you [fn]to look at and remember all the commandments of Yahweh, so as to do them and not [fn]follow after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you played the harlot,
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:3 - Then they assembled together against Moses and Aaron, and said to them, “[fn]You have gone far enough, for all the congregation are holy, every one of them, and Yahweh is in their midst; so why do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of Yahweh?”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:13 - “Is it [fn]not enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to put us to death in the wilderness, but you would also lord it over us?
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:26 - and he spoke to the congregation, saying, “Turn aside now from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing that belongs to them, lest you be swept away in all their sin.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:28 - And Moses said, “By this you shall know that Yahweh has sent me to do all these deeds; for this is not from my heart.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:30 - “But if Yahweh creates an entirely new thing and the ground opens its mouth and swallows them up with all that is theirs, and they go down to Sheol alive, then you will know that these men have spurned Yahweh.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:38 - “As for the censers of these [fn]men who have sinned at the cost of their lives, make them into hammered sheets for a plating of the altar, since they brought them near before Yahweh, and they are holy; and they shall be for a sign to the sons of Israel.”
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:40 - as a [fn]memorial to the sons of Israel that no [fn]outsider who is not of the seed of Aaron should come near to burn incense before Yahweh; so that he will not become like Korah and his congregation—just as Yahweh had spoken to him by the hand of Moses.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:42 - It came about, however, when the congregation had assembled against Moses and Aaron, that they turned toward the tent of meeting, and behold, the cloud covered it and the glory of Yahweh appeared.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:47 - Then Aaron took it as Moses had spoken, and ran into the midst of the assembly, for behold, the plague had begun among the people. So he put on the incense and made atonement for the people.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 16:49 - But those who died by the plague were 14,700, besides those who died on account of Korah.
Unchecked Copy BoxNum 17:4 - “You shall then deposit them in the tent of meeting in front of the testimony, where I meet with you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 3:7 -

Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “This day I will begin to magnify you in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that just as I have been with Moses, I will be with you.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 3:8 - “Moreover, you shall command the priests who are carrying the ark of the covenant, saying, ‘When you come to the edge of the waters of the Jordan, you shall stand still in the Jordan.'”

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 3:17 - And the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of Yahweh stood firm on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan while all Israel crossed on dry ground until all the nation had completed crossing the Jordan.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 4:3 - and command them, saying, ‘Carry for yourselves twelve stones from here out of the middle of the Jordan, from the place where the priests' feet are standing firm, and carry them over with you and lay them down in the lodging place where you will lodge tonight.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 4:8 -

Thus the sons of Israel did as Joshua commanded and carried twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, just as Yahweh spoke to Joshua, according to the number of the tribes of the sons of Israel; and they carried them over with them to the lodging place and laid them down there.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 4:9 - But Joshua set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan at the place where the feet of the priests who carried the ark of the covenant were standing, and they are there to this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 4:10 - Now the priests who carried the ark were standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything was completed that Yahweh had commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua. And the people hurried and crossed.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 4:14 -

On that day, Yahweh magnified Joshua in the sight of all Israel, so that they [fn]feared him, just as they had [fn]feared Moses all the days of his life.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 4:19 -

Now the people came up from the Jordan on the tenth of the first month and camped at Gilgal on the eastern edge of Jericho.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 4:20 - [fn]And those twelve stones which they had taken from the Jordan, Joshua set up at Gilgal.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 4:24 - that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of Yahweh is strong, so that you may [fn]fear Yahweh your God [fn]forever.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:1 -

Now it happened when all the kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan to the west, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard how Yahweh had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the sons of Israel until [fn]they had crossed, that their hearts melted, and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the sons of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:4 - Now this is the reason why Joshua circumcised them: all the people who came out of Egypt who were males, all the men of war, died in the wilderness along the way when they came out of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:6 - For the sons of Israel had walked forty years in the wilderness, until all the nation, that is, the men of war who came out of Egypt, were completely destroyed because they did not listen to the voice of Yahweh, to whom Yahweh had sworn that He would not let them see the land which Yahweh had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:8 -

Now it happened that when they had completed circumcising all the nation, they remained in their places in the camp until they were [fn]healed.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:9 - Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Today I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” So the name of that place is called [fn]Gilgal to this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:10 -

Then the sons of Israel camped at Gilgal and celebrated the Passover on the evening of the fourteenth day of the month on the desert plains of Jericho.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:11 - And on the [fn]day after the Passover, on [fn]that very day, they ate some of the yield of the land, unleavened cakes and roasted grain.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:12 - Then the manna ceased on the [fn]day after they had eaten some of the produce of the land, so that the sons of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate some of the produce of the land of Canaan during that year.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 5:13 -

Now it happened when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, a man was standing opposite him with his sword drawn in his hand, and Joshua went to him and said to him, “Are you for us or for our adversaries?”

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 6:2 - And Yahweh said to Joshua, “See, I have given Jericho into your hand, with its king and the valiant warriors.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 6:17 - “And the city shall be devoted to destruction, it and all that is in it belongs to Yahweh; only Rahab the harlot [fn]and all who are with her in the house shall live because she hid the messengers whom we sent.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 6:21 - And they devoted to destruction everything in the city, both man and woman, young and old, and ox and sheep and donkey, with the edge of the sword.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 6:24 - But they burned the city with fire, and all that was in it. Only the silver and gold, and articles of bronze and iron, they put into the treasury of the [fn]house of Yahweh.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 6:25 - However, Rahab the harlot and her father's household and all she had, Joshua preserved alive; and she has lived in the midst of Israel to this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 6:26 -

Then Joshua made them swear an oath at that time, saying, “Cursed before Yahweh is the man who rises up and builds this city Jericho; with the loss of his firstborn he shall lay its foundation, and with the loss of his youngest son he shall set up its gates.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 7:13 - “Rise up! Set the people apart as holy and say, ‘Set yourselves apart as holy for tomorrow, for thus Yahweh, the God of Israel, has said, “There are things devoted to destruction in your midst, O Israel. You cannot rise before your enemies until you have removed the things devoted to destruction from your midst.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 7:15 - ‘And it will be that the one who is taken with the things devoted to destruction shall be burned with fire, he and all that belongs to him, because he has trespassed against the covenant of Yahweh, and because he has committed a disgraceful thing in Israel.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 7:21 - I saw among the spoil a beautiful mantle from Shinar and two hundred [fn]shekels of silver and a bar of gold fifty shekels in weight; then I [fn]coveted them and took them; and behold, they are concealed in the earth inside my tent with the silver underneath it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:3 -

So Joshua rose with all the people of war to go up to Ai; and Joshua chose 30,000 men, valiant warriors, and sent them out at night.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:17 - So not a man remained in Ai or Bethel who had not gone out after Israel, and they forsook the city, leaving it open, and pursued Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:18 -

Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Stretch out the javelin that is in your hand toward Ai, for I will give it into your hand.” So Joshua stretched out the javelin that was in his hand toward the city.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:19 - Then the men in ambush rose quickly from their place, and when he had stretched out his hand, they ran and entered the city and captured it, and they quickly set the city on fire.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:24 -

Now it happened that when Israel had finished killing all the inhabitants of Ai in the field in the wilderness where they pursued them, and all of them fell by the edge of the sword until they were completely destroyed, then all Israel turned back to Ai and struck it with the edge of the sword.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:25 - So all who fell that day, both men and women, were 12,000—all the [fn]people of Ai.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:27 - Israel took only the cattle and the spoil of that city as plunder for themselves, according to the word of Yahweh which He had commanded Joshua.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:28 - So Joshua burned Ai and made it a heap forever, a desolation until this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:30 -

Then Joshua built an altar to Yahweh, the God of Israel, on Mount Ebal,

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:31 - just as Moses the servant of Yahweh had commanded the sons of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, an altar of uncut stones on which no man had wielded an iron tool; and they offered burnt offerings on it to Yahweh and sacrificed peace offerings.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:33 - And all Israel with their elders and officers and their judges were standing on both sides of the ark before the Levitical priests who carried the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, the sojourner as well as the native. Half of them stood in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, just as Moses the servant of Yahweh had given a command at first to bless the people of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 8:34 - Then afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessing and the curse, according to all that is written in the book of the law.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:1 -

Now it happened when all the kings who were beyond the Jordan, in the hill country and in the [fn]Shephelah and on all the coast of the Great Sea toward Lebanon, the Hittite and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, heard of it,

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:5 - and worn-out and patched sandals on their feet, and worn-out clothes on themselves; and all the bread of their provision was dry and was crumbled.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:7 - Then the men of Israel said to the Hivites, “Perhaps you are living [fn]within our land; how then shall we cut a covenant with you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:9 - They said to him, “Your servants have come from a very far country because of the [fn]fame of Yahweh your God; for we have heard the report of Him and all that He did in Egypt,
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:10 - and all that He did to the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon and to Og king of Bashan who was at Ashtaroth.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:12 - “This bread of ours was warm when we took it for our provisions out of our houses on the day that we left to come to you; but now behold, it is dry and has become crumbled.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:16 -

Now it happened at the end of three days after they had cut a covenant with them, that they heard that they were near them and that they were living [fn]nearly among them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:22 -

Then Joshua called for them and spoke to them, saying, “Why have you deceived us, saying, ‘We are very far from you,' when you are living nearly in the midst of us?

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:26 - Thus he did to them and delivered them from the hands of the sons of Israel, and they did not kill them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 9:27 - But Joshua made them that day hewers of wood and drawers of water for the congregation and for the altar of Yahweh, to this day, in the place which He would choose.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:2 - they feared exceedingly because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:7 - So Joshua went up from Gilgal, he and all the people of war with him and all the valiant warriors.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:10 - And Yahweh threw them into confusion before Israel, and He struck them with a great slaughter at Gibeon and pursued them by the way of the ascent of Beth-horon and struck them as far as Azekah and Makkedah.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:11 - Now it happened as they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, that Yahweh threw down large stones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died; there were more who died [fn]from the hailstones than those whom the sons of Israel killed with the sword.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:12 -

Then Joshua spoke to Yahweh in the day when Yahweh gave over the Amorites before the sons of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel,

“O sun, stand still at Gibeon,

And O moon in the valley of Aijalon.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:13 -

So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped,

Until the nation avenged themselves of their enemies.

Is it not written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stood in the middle of the sky and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:16 -

And these five kings fled and hid themselves in the cave at Makkedah.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:17 - Then it was told Joshua, saying, “The five kings have been found hidden in the cave at Makkedah.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:28 -

Now Joshua captured Makkedah on that day and struck it and its king with the edge of the sword; he [fn]devoted [fn]it to destruction and every [fn]person who was in it. He left no survivor. Thus he did to the king of Makkedah just as he had done to the king of Jericho.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:30 - And Yahweh gave it also with its king into the hands of Israel, and he struck it and every person who was in it with the edge of the sword. He left no survivor remaining in it. Thus he did to its king just as he had done to the king of Jericho.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:32 - And Yahweh gave Lachish into the hands of Israel; and he captured it on the second day and struck it and every person who was in it with the edge of the sword, according to all that he had done to Libnah.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:33 -

Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish, and Joshua struck him and his people down until [fn]there was no survivor remaining for him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:35 - And they captured it on that day and struck it with the edge of the sword; and every person who was in it, he devoted to destruction on that day according to all that he had done to Lachish.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:37 - And they captured it and struck it and its king and all its cities and all the persons who were in it with the edge of the sword. He left no survivor remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon. And he devoted it and every person who was in it to destruction.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 10:39 - And he captured it and its king and all its cities, and they struck them with the edge of the sword and devoted every person who was in it to destruction. He left no survivor remaining. Just as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir and its king, as he had also done to Libnah and its king.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 11:3 - to the Canaanite on the east and on the west, and the Amorite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Jebusite in the hill country, and the Hivite [fn]at the foot of Hermon in the land of Mizpeh.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 11:6 -

Then Yahweh said to Joshua, “Do not be afraid because of them, for tomorrow at this time I will give all of them over, slain, before Israel; you shall hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJos 11:7 - So Joshua and all the people of war with him came upon them suddenly by the waters of Merom, and they fell upon them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJos 11:9 - And Joshua did to them as Yahweh had said to him; he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:8 - Then Barak said to her, “If you will go with me, then I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:9 - So she said, “I will surely go with you; nevertheless, the honor shall not be yours on the journey that you are about to take, for Yahweh will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman.” Then Deborah arose and went with Barak to Kedesh.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:14 - And Deborah said to Barak, “Arise! For this is the day in which Yahweh has given Sisera into your hand; has not Yahweh gone out before you?” So Barak went down from Mount Tabor with 10,000 men following him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:15 - And Yahweh threw Sisera and all his chariots and all his camp into confusion with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera came down from his chariot and fled away on foot.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:16 - But Barak pursued the chariots and all those in the camp as far as Harosheth-hagoyim, and all the camp of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword; not even one remained.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:18 - And Jael went out to meet Sisera and said to him, “Turn aside, my master, turn aside to me! Do not be afraid.” And he turned aside to her into the tent, and she covered him with a [fn]rug.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:20 - And he said to her, “Stand in the doorway of the tent, and it shall be if anyone comes and asks of you and says, ‘Is there a man here?' that you shall say, ‘No.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:21 - Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent peg and placed a hammer in her hand and went secretly to him and drove the peg into his temple, and it went through into the ground; for he was sound asleep and exhausted. So he died.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:22 - Now behold, Barak was pursuing Sisera, and Jael came out to meet him and said to him, “Come, and I will show you the man whom you are seeking.” And he entered [fn]with her, and behold, Sisera was lying dead with the tent peg in his temple.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 4:23 -

So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the sons of Israel.

Then Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying,

Until I, Deborah, arose,

Until I arose, a mother in Israel.

[fn]God chose new leaders;

Then war was in the gates.

Not a shield or a spear was seen

Among forty thousand in Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 5:11 -

“At the sound of those who divide flocks among the watering places,

There they shall [fn]commemorate the righteous deeds of Yahweh,

The righteous deeds for His [fn]peasantry in Israel.

Then the people of Yahweh went down to the gates.

“From Ephraim those whose root is in Amalek came down,

Following you, Benjamin, with your peoples;

“And [fn]the princes of Issachar were with Deborah;

And the land was quiet for forty years.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:1 -

Then the sons of Israel did what was evil in the eyes of Yahweh; and Yahweh gave them into the hands of Midian seven years.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:2 - And the [fn]power of Midian prevailed against Israel. Because of Midian the sons of Israel made for themselves the dens which were in the mountains and the caves and the strongholds.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:4 - So they would camp against them and ruin the produce of the earth [fn]as far as Gaza and leave no sustenance in Israel as well as no sheep, ox, or donkey.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:5 - For they would go up with their livestock and their tents; they would come in like locusts for number, both they and their camels were innumerable; and they came into the land to make it a ruin.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:10 - and I said to you, “I am Yahweh your God; you shall not fear the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live. But you have not listened to My voice.”'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:11 -

Then the angel of Yahweh came and sat under the [fn]oak that was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite as his son Gideon was beating out wheat in the wine press in order to [fn]preserve it from the Midianites.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:13 - Then Gideon said to him, “O my lord, if Yahweh is with us, why then has all this happened to us? And where are all His wondrous deeds which our fathers recounted to us, saying, ‘Did not Yahweh bring us up from Egypt?' But now Yahweh has abandoned us and given us into the hand of Midian.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:14 - Then Yahweh turned to him and said, “Go in this strength of yours and save Israel from the hand of Midian. Have I not sent you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:15 - But he said to Him, “O Lord, with what shall I save Israel? Behold, my clan is the least in Manasseh, and I am the youngest in my father's house.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:17 - So [fn]Gideon said to Him, “If now I have found favor in Your eyes, then do a sign for me that it is You who speak with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:21 - Then the angel of Yahweh put out the end of the staff that was in his hand and touched the meat and the unleavened bread; and fire sprang up from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened bread. Then the angel of Yahweh went away from before his eyes.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:24 - So Gideon built an altar there to Yahweh and named it [fn]Yahweh is Peace. To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:26 - and build an altar to Yahweh your God on the top of this stronghold in an orderly manner, and take the second bull and offer a burnt offering with the wood of the Asherah which you shall cut down.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:32 - Therefore on that day he named him Jerubbaal, that is to say, “Let Baal contend against him,” because he had torn down his altar.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:33 -

Now all the Midianites and the Amalekites and the sons of the east assembled themselves; and they crossed over and camped in the valley of Jezreel.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:34 - But the Spirit of Yahweh clothed Gideon; and he blew a trumpet, and the Abiezrites were called together to follow him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:35 - And he sent messengers throughout Manasseh, and they also were called together to follow him; and he sent messengers to Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali, and they came up to meet them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:36 -

Then Gideon said to God, “If You will save Israel by my hand, as You have spoken,

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:37 - behold, I will put a fleece of wool on the threshing floor. If there is dew on the fleece only, and it is dry on all the ground, then I will know that You will save Israel by my hand, as You have spoken.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:39 - Then Gideon said to God, “Do not let Your anger burn against me that I may speak once more; please let me make a test once more with the fleece; let it now be dry only on the fleece, and let there be dew on all the ground.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 6:40 - And God did so that night. So it was dry only on the fleece, but dew was on all the ground.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:1 -

Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him rose early and camped beside [fn]the spring of Harod; and the camp of Midian was on the north side of [fn]them by the hill of Moreh in the valley.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:2 -

And Yahweh said to Gideon, “The people who are with you are too many for Me to give Midian into their hands, lest Israel honor themselves, saying, ‘My own hand has saved me.'

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:6 - Now the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was 300 men; but all the rest of the people kneeled to drink water.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:7 - And Yahweh said to Gideon, “I will save you with the 300 men who lapped and will give the Midianites into your hands; so let all the other people go, each man to his place.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:8 - So [fn]the 300 men took the people's provisions and their trumpets into their hands. And [fn]Gideon sent all the other men of Israel, each to his tent, but retained the 300 men; and the camp of Midian was below him in the valley.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:9 -

Now it happened the same night that Yahweh said to him, “Arise, go down against the camp, for I have given it into your hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:11 - and you will hear what they say; and afterward your hands will be strengthened, that you may go down against the camp.” So he went with Purah his young man down to the [fn]outskirts of the armed men that were in the camp.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:12 - Now the Midianites and the Amalekites and all the sons of the east were lying in the valley as numerous as locusts; and their camels were without number, as numerous as the sand on the seashore.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:13 - Then Gideon came, and behold, a man was recounting a dream to his friend. And he said, “Behold, I [fn]had a dream; [fn]a loaf of barley bread was tumbling into the camp of Midian, and it came to the tent and struck it so that it fell and turned it [fn]upside down so that the tent lay flat.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:14 - And his friend answered and said, “This is nothing less than the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel; God has given Midian and all the camp into his hand.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:15 -

Now it happened that when Gideon heard the account of the dream and its interpretation, he bowed in worship. Then he returned to the camp of Israel and said, “Arise, for Yahweh has given the camp of Midian into your hands.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:16 - And he divided the 300 men into three [fn]companies, and he put trumpets and empty pitchers into the hands of all of them, with torches inside the pitchers.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:17 - Then he said to them, “Look at me and do likewise. And behold, I will come to the outskirts of the camp, and it will be that just as I do so you do likewise.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:19 -

So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, when they had just set up the watch; and they blew the trumpets and smashed the pitchers that were in their hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:20 - Then the three [fn]companies blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers, and they held the torches in their left hands and the trumpets in their right hands for blowing and called out, “A sword for Yahweh and for Gideon!”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:22 - So they blew 300 trumpets. And Yahweh set the sword of one against another even throughout the whole camp. And the camp fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the edge of Abel-meholah, by Tabbath.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:24 -

Now Gideon had sent messengers throughout all the hill country of Ephraim, saying, “Come down to meet Midian and capture the waters before them, as far as Beth-barah and the Jordan.” So all the men of Ephraim were summoned, and they captured the waters as far as Beth-barah and the Jordan.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 7:25 - Then they captured the two princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb, and they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and they killed Zeeb at the wine press of Zeeb. Then they pursued Midian and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon from across the Jordan.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:1 -

Then the men of Ephraim said to him, “What is this thing you have done to us, not calling us when you went to fight against Midian?” And they strongly contended with him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:3 - “God has given the princes of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb, into your hands; and what was I able to do in comparison with you?” Then their [fn]anger toward him subsided when he spoke this word.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:6 - But the princes of Succoth said, “[fn]Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna already in your hands, that we should give bread to your army?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:7 - And Gideon said, “Thus, when Yahweh has given Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand, then I will [fn]thrash your [fn]bodies with the thorns of the wilderness and with briers.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:9 - So he spoke also to the men of Penuel, saying, “When I return safely, I will tear down this tower.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:10 -

Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor, and their camps with them, about 15,000 men, all who were left of the entire camp of the sons of the east; for the fallen were 120,000 men who drew the sword.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:11 - And Gideon went up by the way of those who dwelt in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah and struck the camp when the camp was [fn]unsuspecting.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:15 - Then he came to the men of Succoth and said, “Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, about whom you reproached me, saying, ‘[fn]Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna already in your hand, that we should give bread to your men who are weary?'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:16 - Then he took the elders of the city as well as thorns of the wilderness and briers, and with them he [fn]taught the men of Succoth a lesson.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:18 -

Then he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, “What kind of men were they whom you killed at Tabor?” And they said, “They were like you, each one [fn]resembling the son of a king.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:21 - Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, “Rise up yourself, and smite us; for as the man, so is his might.” So Gideon arose and killed Zebah and Zalmunna and took the crescent ornaments which were on their camels' necks.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:22 -

Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, “Rule over us, both you and your son, also your son's son, for you have saved us from the hand of Midian.”

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:26 - And the weight of the gold earrings that he requested was 1,700 shekels of gold, besides the crescent ornaments and the pendants and the purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and besides the neck bands that were on their camels' necks.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:27 - Then Gideon made it into an ephod and placed it in his city, Ophrah, and all Israel played the harlot with it there, so that it became a snare to Gideon and his household.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:28 - So Midian was subdued before the sons of Israel, and they did not lift up their heads anymore. And the land was quiet for forty years in the days of Gideon.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:29 -

Then Jerubbaal the son of Joash went and lived in his own house.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:31 - And his concubine who was in Shechem also bore him a son, and he [fn]named him Abimelech.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 8:32 - Then Gideon the son of Joash died at a good old age and was buried in the tomb of his father Joash, in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:2 - “Speak, now, in the hearing of all the lords of Shechem, ‘Which is better for you, that seventy men, all the sons of Jerubbaal, rule over you, or that one man rule over you?' Also, remember that I am your bone and your flesh.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:3 - And his mother's [fn]relatives spoke all these words on his behalf in the hearing of all the lords of Shechem; and [fn]they were inclined to follow Abimelech, for they said, “He is our [fn]relative.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:4 - So they gave him seventy pieces of silver from the house of Baal-berith with which Abimelech hired worthless and reckless fellows, and they followed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:6 - Then all the lords of Shechem and all [fn]Beth-millo assembled together, and they went and made Abimelech king, by the [fn]oak of the pillar which was in Shechem.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:9 - “But the olive tree said to them, ‘Shall I leave my fatness, with [fn]which God and men are honored, and go to wave over the trees?'
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:15 - “And the bramble said to the trees, ‘If in [fn]truth you are anointing me as king over you, come and take refuge in my shade; but if not, may fire come out from the bramble and consume the cedars of Lebanon.'
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:16 -

“So now, if you have dealt in [fn]truth and integrity and made Abimelech king, and if you have dealt well with Jerubbaal and his house and [fn]have dealt with him according to the bountiful works of his hands

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:19 - if then you have dealt in [fn]truth and integrity with Jerubbaal and his house this day, be glad in Abimelech, and let him also be glad in you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:21 - Then Jotham escaped and fled and went to Beer and remained there because of Abimelech his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:23 - Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the lords of Shechem; and the lords of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech,
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:25 - And the lords of Shechem set [fn]men in ambush against him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all who might pass by them along the road; and it was told to Abimelech.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:26 -

Then Gaal the son of Ebed came with his [fn]relatives, and they crossed over into Shechem; and the lords of Shechem put their trust in him.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:29 - [fn]Would, therefore, that this people were under my hand! Then I would remove Abimelech.” And he said to Abimelech, “Increase your army and come out.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:32 - “So now, arise by night, you and the people who are with you, and lie in wait in the field.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:39 - So Gaal went out before the lords of Shechem and fought with Abimelech.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:41 - Then Abimelech remained at Arumah, but Zebul drove out Gaal and his [fn]relatives so that they could not remain in Shechem.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:43 - So he took [fn]his people and divided them into three [fn]companies and lay in wait in the field; then he looked, and behold, the people were coming out from the city. So he arose against them and struck them down.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:44 - Then Abimelech and the [fn]company who was with him rushed forward and stood in the entrance of the city gate; but the other two [fn]companies rushed upon all who were in the field and struck them down.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:45 - So Abimelech fought against the city all that day, and he captured the city and killed the people who were in it; then he tore the city down and sowed it with salt.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:48 - So Abimelech went up to Mount Zalmon, he and all the people who were with him; and Abimelech took [fn]an axe in his hand and cut down a branch from the trees and lifted it and laid it on his shoulder. Then he said to the people who were with him, “What you have seen me do, hurry and do [fn]likewise.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:49 - And all the people also cut down each one his branch and followed Abimelech and put them on the inner chamber and set the inner chamber on fire over those inside, so that all the men of the tower of Shechem also died, about one thousand men and women.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:51 - But there was a strong tower in the center of the city, and all the men and women with all the lords of the city fled there and shut themselves in; and they went up on the roof of the tower.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 9:52 - So Abimelech came to the tower and fought against it and approached the entrance of the tower to burn it with fire.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:1 -

Then after Abimelech died, Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar, arose to save Israel; and he lived in Shamir in the hill country of Ephraim.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:2 - And he judged Israel twenty-three years. Then he died and was buried in Shamir.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:4 - And he had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys, and they had thirty cities [fn]in the land of Gilead that are called [fn]Havvoth-jair to this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:5 - And Jair died and was buried in Kamon.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:7 - So the anger of Yahweh burned against Israel, and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and into the hands of the sons of Ammon.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:8 - And they shattered and smashed the sons of Israel [fn]that year; for eighteen years they did this to all the sons of Israel who were beyond the Jordan [fn]in Gilead in the land of the Amorites.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:9 - Then the sons of Ammon crossed the Jordan to fight also against Judah, Benjamin, and the house of Ephraim, so that Israel was greatly distressed.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:14 - “Go and cry out to the gods which you have chosen; let them save you in the time of your distress.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:15 - Then the sons of Israel said to Yahweh, “We have sinned, so You, do to us whatever seems good in Your eyes; only please deliver us this day.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:16 - So they removed the foreign gods from among them and served Yahweh; and [fn]He could bear the trouble of Israel no longer.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:17 -

Then the sons of Ammon were summoned, and they camped in Gilead. And the sons of Israel gathered together and camped in Mizpah.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 10:18 - And the people, the princes of Gilead, said to one another, “Who is the man who will begin to fight against the sons of Ammon? He shall become head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:1 -

Now Jephthah the Gileadite was a mighty man of valor, but he was the son of a harlot. And Gilead [fn]became the father of Jephthah.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:2 - And Gilead's wife bore him sons; and when his wife's sons grew up, they drove Jephthah out and said to him, “You shall not have an inheritance in our father's house, for you are the son of another woman.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:3 - So Jephthah fled from his brothers and lived in the land of Tob; and worthless fellows gathered themselves [fn]about Jephthah, and they went out with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:5 - So it happened that as the sons of Ammon fought against Israel, the elders of Gilead went to get Jephthah from the land of Tob;
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:6 - and they said to Jephthah, “Come and be our chief that we may fight against the sons of Ammon.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:8 - And the elders of Gilead said to Jephthah, “For this reason we have now returned to you, that you may go with us and fight with the sons of Ammon and become head over all the inhabitants of Gilead.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:9 - So Jephthah said to the elders of Gilead, “If you take me back to fight against the sons of Ammon and Yahweh gives them up [fn]to me, will I become your head?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:11 - Then Jephthah went with the elders of Gilead, and the people made him head and chief over them; and Jephthah spoke all his words before Yahweh at Mizpah.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:12 -

And Jephthah sent messengers to the king of the sons of Ammon, saying, “What is between you and me, that you have come to me to fight against my land?”

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:13 - Then the king of the sons of Ammon said to the messengers of Jephthah, “Because Israel took away my land when they came up from Egypt, from the Arnon as far as the Jabbok and the Jordan; so now, return them peaceably.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:16 - ‘For when they came up from Egypt, and Israel went through the wilderness to the [fn]Red Sea and came to Kadesh,
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:17 - then Israel sent messengers to the king of Edom, saying, “Please let us pass through your land,” but the king of Edom would not listen. And they also sent to the king of Moab, but he was not willing. So Israel remained at Kadesh.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:18 - ‘Then they went through the wilderness and around the land of Edom and the land of Moab and came to the east toward the sunrise of the land of Moab, and they camped beyond the Arnon; but they did not enter the territory of Moab, for the Arnon was the border of Moab.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:21 - ‘Then Yahweh, the God of Israel, gave Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they struck them down; so Israel possessed all the land of the Amorites, the inhabitants of that country.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:26 - ‘While Israel lived in Heshbon and its towns and in Aroer and its towns and in all the cities that are on the banks of the Arnon, 300 years, why did you not deliver them for yourself within that time?
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:27 - ‘I therefore have not sinned against you, but you are doing me evil by making war against me; may Yahweh, the Judge, judge today between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:30 - Then Jephthah made a vow to Yahweh and said, “If You will indeed give the sons of Ammon into my hand,
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:31 - then it shall be that whatever comes out of the doors of my house to meet me when I return in peace from the sons of Ammon, it shall be Yahweh's, and I will offer it up as a burnt offering.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:32 - So Jephthah crossed over to the sons of Ammon to fight against them; and Yahweh gave them into his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:34 -

Then Jephthah came to his house at Mizpah. And behold, his daughter was coming out to meet him with tambourines and with dancing. Now she was his one and only child; besides her he had no son or daughter.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:35 - So it happened that when he saw her, he tore his clothes and said, “Alas, my daughter! You have brought me very low, and you are among those who trouble me. But I have opened my mouth to vow to Yahweh, and I cannot take it back.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:36 - So she said to him, “My father, you have opened your mouth to vow to Yahweh; do to me according to what has gone out from your mouth, since Yahweh has avenged you of your enemies, the sons of Ammon.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:39 - And it happened at the end of two months that she returned to her father, and he did to her according to the vow which he had made; and she did not know a man. Thus it became a [fn]custom in Israel,
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 11:40 - that the daughters of Israel went yearly to [fn]commemorate the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite four days in the year.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 7:6 - And they gathered to Mizpah and drew water and poured it out before Yahweh and fasted on that day and said there, “We have sinned against Yahweh.” And Samuel judged the sons of Israel at Mizpah.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 9:9 - (Formerly in Israel, when a man went to inquire of God, he used to say, “Come, and let us go to the seer”; for he who is called a prophet now was formerly called a seer.)
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 9:12 - And they answered them and said, “He is! Behold, he is ahead of you. Hurry now, for he has come into the city today, for the people have a sacrifice on the high place today.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 9:13 - “As soon as you enter the city you will find him before he goes up to the high place to eat, for the people will not eat until he comes because he must bless the sacrifice; afterward those who are invited will eat. So now, go up for you will find him at once.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 9:19 - And Samuel answered Saul and said, “I am the seer. Go up before me to the high place, for you shall eat with me today; and in the morning I will let you go and will tell you all that is on your heart.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 9:24 - Then the cook took up the leg with what was on it and set it before Saul. And Samuel said, “Here is what has been reserved!

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 10:12 - And a man there answered and said, “Now, who is their father?” Therefore it became a proverb: “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 10:22 - Therefore they inquired further of Yahweh, “Has the man come here yet?” So Yahweh said, “Behold, he is hiding himself by the baggage.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 10:24 - And Samuel said to all the people, “Do you see him whom Yahweh has chosen? Surely there is no one like him among all the people.” So all the people shouted and said, “[fn]Long live the king!”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 11:2 - But Nahash the Ammonite said to them, “I will cut it with you on this condition, that I will gouge out the right eye of every one of you, thus I will make it a reproach on all Israel.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 11:8 - And he [fn]numbered them in Bezek; and the sons of Israel were 300,000, and the men of Judah 30,000.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 11:11 - Then the next morning Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp at the morning watch and struck down the Ammonites until the heat of the day. Those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 11:13 - But Saul said, “Not a man shall be put to death this day, for today Yahweh has accomplished salvation in Israel.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 11:15 - So all the people went to Gilgal, and there they made Saul king before Yahweh in Gilgal. There they also offered sacrifices of peace offerings before Yahweh; and there Saul and all the men of Israel were exceedingly glad.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:2 - “So now, here is the king walking before you, but I am old and gray, and behold, my sons are with you. And I have walked before you from my youth even to this day.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:5 - So he said to them, “Yahweh is witness against you, and His anointed is witness this day that you have found nothing in my hand.” And they said, “He is witness.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:7 - “So now, take your stand, that I may judge you before Yahweh concerning all the righteous acts of Yahweh which He did for you and your fathers.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:8 - “When Jacob went into Egypt and your fathers cried out to Yahweh, then Yahweh sent Moses and Aaron [fn]who brought your fathers out of Egypt and settled them in this place.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:9 - “But they forgot Yahweh their God, so He sold them into the hand of Sisera, commander of the army of Hazor, and into the hand of the Philistines and into the hand of the king of Moab, and they fought against them.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:16 - “Even now, take your stand and see this great thing which Yahweh will do before your eyes.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:18 - So Samuel called to Yahweh, and Yahweh sent [fn]thunder and rain that day; and all the people greatly feared Yahweh and Samuel.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:20 - And Samuel said to the people, “Do not fear. You have committed all this evil, yet do not turn aside from following Yahweh, but serve Yahweh with all your heart.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 12:24 - “Only [fn]fear Yahweh and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for see what great things He has done for you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:2 -

And Saul chose for himself 3,000 men of Israel, of which 2,000 were with Saul in Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel, while 1,000 were with Jonathan at Gibeah of Benjamin. But he sent away the rest of the people, each to his tent.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:3 - And Jonathan struck the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. Then Saul blew the trumpet throughout the land, saying, “Let the Hebrews hear.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:4 - Then all Israel heard [fn]the news that Saul had struck the garrison of the Philistines, and also that Israel had become odious to the Philistines. The people were then summoned [fn]to Saul at Gilgal.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:5 -

Now the Philistines assembled to fight with Israel, 30,000 chariots and 6,000 horsemen and people like the sand which is on the seashore in abundance; and they came up and camped in Michmash, east of Beth-aven.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:6 - Now the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait (for the people were hard-pressed). Then the people hid themselves in caves, in thickets, in cliffs, in cellars, and in pits.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:7 - Also some of the Hebrews crossed the Jordan into the land of Gad and Gilead. But as for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:11 - But Samuel said, “What have you done?” And Saul said, “Because I saw that the people were scattering from me, and that you did not come within the appointed days, and that the Philistines were assembling at Michmash,
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:16 - Now Saul and his son Jonathan and the people who were present with them were staying in Geba of Benjamin, and the Philistines camped at Michmash.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:19 -

Now no blacksmith could be found in all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, “Lest the Hebrews make [fn]swords or spears.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:22 - So it happened on the day of battle that neither sword nor spear was found in the hands of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan, but they were found with Saul and his son Jonathan.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 13:23 - And the garrison of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:1 -

Now the day came that Jonathan, the son of Saul, said to the young man who was carrying his armor, “Come and let us cross over to the Philistines' garrison that is on the other side.” But he did not tell his father.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:2 - And Saul was staying in the outskirts of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree which is in Migron. And the people who were with him were about six hundred men,
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:3 - and Ahijah, the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the priest of Yahweh at Shiloh, was [fn]wearing an ephod. And the people did not know that Jonathan had gone.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:6 -

Then Jonathan said to the young man who was carrying his armor, “Come and let us cross over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; perhaps Yahweh will work for us, for Yahweh is not restrained to save by many or by few.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:14 - And that first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor bearer made was about twenty men within about half a furrow in an [fn]acre of land.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:15 - And there was a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. Even the garrison and the raiders trembled, and the earth quaked so that it became a [fn]great trembling.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:16 -

Then Saul's watchmen in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude melted away; and they went here and there.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:18 - Then Saul said to Ahijah, “Bring the ark of God here.” For the ark of God was at that time with the sons of Israel.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:19 - And it happened that while Saul talked to the priest, the commotion in the camp of the Philistines continued and increased; so Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:22 - Now all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves in the hill country of Ephraim heard that the Philistines had fled, and they pursued them closely in the battle.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:23 - So Yahweh saved Israel that day, and the battle [fn]spread beyond Beth-aven.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:24 -

Now the men of Israel were hard-pressed on that day. And Saul had put the people under oath, saying, “Cursed be the man who eats food [fn]before evening and until I have avenged myself on my enemies.” So none of the people tasted food.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:27 - But Jonathan had not heard when his father put the people under a sworn oath; therefore, he put out the end of the staff that was in his hand and dipped it in the honeycomb and put his hand to his mouth, and his eyes brightened.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:30 - “How much more, if only the people had eaten freely today of the spoil of their enemies which they found! For now the slaughter among the Philistines has not been great.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:31 -

Then they struck among the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon. And the people were very weary.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:33 - Then they told Saul, saying, “Behold, the people are sinning against Yahweh by eating with the blood.” And he said, “You have acted treacherously; roll a great stone to me today.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:36 -

Then Saul said, “Let us go down after the Philistines by night and take spoil among them until the morning light, and let us not leave a man of them.” And they said, “Do whatever seems good in your eyes.” So the priest said, “Let us draw near to God here.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:45 - But the people said to Saul, “Must Jonathan die, who has [fn]brought about this great salvation in Israel? Far from it! As Yahweh lives, not one hair of his head shall fall to the ground, for he has worked with God this day.” So the people [fn]redeemed Jonathan, and he did not die.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:2 - “Thus says Yahweh of hosts, ‘I will [fn]punish Amalek for what he did to Israel, how he set himself against him on the way while he was coming up from Egypt.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:6 - And Saul said to the Kenites, “Go, depart; go down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them; you showed lovingkindness to all the sons of Israel when they came up from Egypt.” So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:8 - And he seized Agag the king of the Amalekites alive and devoted to destruction all the people with the edge of the sword.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:14 - But Samuel said, “What then is this sound of the sheep in my ears and the sound of the oxen which I am hearing?”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:20 -

Then Saul said to Samuel, “I did [fn]obey the voice of Yahweh and went on the way on which Yahweh sent me and have brought back Agag the king of Amalek and have devoted the Amalekites to destruction.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:21 - “But the people took some of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the choicest of the things devoted to destruction, to sacrifice to Yahweh your God at Gilgal.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:1 -

Then Yahweh said to Samuel, “How long will you be grieving over Saul? I have rejected him from being king over Israel. Fill your horn with oil and go; I will send you to Jesse the Bethlehemite, for I see among his sons a king for Me.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:2 - But Samuel said, “How can I go? Saul will hear of it and will kill me.” Then Yahweh said, “Take a heifer with you and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to Yahweh.'

Now it happened, when they entered, he looked at Eliab and thought, “Surely the anointed of Yahweh is before Him.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:9 - Next Jesse made [fn]Shammah pass by. And he said, “Yahweh has not chosen this one either.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:11 - And Samuel said to Jesse, “Are these all the young men?” And he said, “There remains yet the youngest, and behold, he is shepherding the sheep.” Then Samuel said to Jesse, “Send and [fn]bring him, for we will not turn around until he comes here.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:13 - Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of Yahweh [fn]came mightily upon David from that day forward. And Samuel arose and went to Ramah.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:39 - And David girded his sword over his armor and tried to walk, for he had not tested them. So David said to Saul, “I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them.” And David took them [fn]off.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:40 - Then he took his stick in his hand and chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook and put them in the shepherd's bag which he had, even in his pouch, and his sling was in his hand; and he approached the Philistine.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:45 - Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, a spear, and a javelin, but I come to you in the name of Yahweh of hosts, the God of the battle lines of Israel, whom you have [fn]reproached.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:46 - “This day Yahweh will deliver you up into my hands, and I will strike you down and remove your head from you. And I will give the dead bodies of the camp of the Philistines this day to the birds of the sky and the beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel,
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:47 - and that all this assembly may know that Yahweh does not save by sword or by spear; for the battle is Yahweh's, and He will give you into our hands.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:52 - But the men of Israel and Judah arose and shouted and pursued the Philistines [fn]as far as the valley and to the gates of Ekron. And the slain Philistines lay fallen along the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath and Ekron.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:6 -

And it happened as they were coming, when David returned from striking down the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with gladness, and with [fn]musical instruments.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:7 - And the women sang as they [fn]were merry and said,

“Saul has struck his thousands,

And David his ten thousands.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:8 -

Then Saul became very angry, for this saying was [fn]displeasing in his eyes; and he said, “They have ascribed to David ten thousands, but to me they have ascribed thousands. Now what more can he have but the kingdom?”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:14 - And David was [fn]prospering in all his ways, and Yahweh was with him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:20 -

And Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David. So they told Saul, and the thing was right in his eyes.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:22 - Then Saul commanded his servants, “Speak to David secretly, saying, ‘Behold, the king delights in you, and all his servants love you; so now, become the king's son-in-law.'”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:23 - So Saul's servants spoke these words in [fn]David's hearing. But David said, “Is it trivial in your eyes to become the king's son-in-law, since I am a poor man and lightly esteemed?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:25 - Saul then said, “Thus you shall say to David, ‘The king does not desire any dowry except one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to take vengeance on the king's enemies.'” Now Saul planned to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:26 - Then his servants told David these words, and it was right in the eyes of David to become the king's son-in-law. [fn]So before the days had expired,
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:27 - David rose up and went, he and his men, and struck down two hundred men among the Philistines. Then David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. So Saul gave him Michal his daughter as a wife.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:3 - “And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will speak with my father about you; what I [fn]perceive, I will tell you.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:5 - “For he took his life in his hand and struck the Philistine, and Yahweh brought about a great salvation for all Israel; you saw it and were glad. Why then will you sin against innocent blood by putting David to death without a cause?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:8 -

Then there was war again. And David went out and fought with the Philistines and struck them with a great slaughter, so that they fled before him.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:9 - Now there was an evil spirit from Yahweh on Saul as he was sitting in his house with his spear in his hand, and David was playing the harp with his hand.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:11 -

Then Saul sent messengers to David's house to keep watch over him, in order to put him to death in the morning. But Michal, David's wife, told him, saying, “If you do not make an escape for your life tonight, tomorrow you will be put to death.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:18 -

Now David fled and escaped and came to Samuel at Ramah and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and stayed in Naioth.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:19 - And it was told to Saul, saying, “Behold, David is at Naioth in Ramah.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:22 - Then he himself went to Ramah and came as far as the large well that is in Secu; and he asked and said, “Where are Samuel and David?” And someone said, “Behold, they are at Naioth in Ramah.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:23 - So he went there, to Naioth in Ramah; and the Spirit of God came upon him also, so that he went along prophesying continually until he came to Naioth in Ramah.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:24 - He also stripped off his clothes, and he too prophesied before Samuel and [fn]lay down [fn]naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, “Is Saul also among the prophets?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:1 -

Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah and came and said before Jonathan, “What have I done? What is my iniquity? And what is my sin before your father, that he is seeking my life?”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:3 - Yet David swore again, [fn]saying, “Your father knows well that I have found favor in your sight, and he has said, ‘Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved.' But truly as Yahweh lives and as your soul lives, there is [fn]hardly a step between me and death.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:5 - So David said to Jonathan, “Behold, tomorrow is the new moon, and I ought to sit down to eat with the king. But let me go, that I may hide myself in the field until the third evening.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:8 - “Therefore show lovingkindness to your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of Yahweh with you. But if there is iniquity in me, put me to death yourself; for why then should you bring me to your father?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:15 - “You shall not cut off your lovingkindness from my house forever, not even when Yahweh cuts off every one of the enemies of David from the face of the earth.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:19 - “When you have stayed for three days, you shall go down quickly and come to the place [fn]where you hid yourself on that eventful day, and you shall remain by the stone Ezel.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:24 -

So David hid in the field; and when the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:26 - Nevertheless Saul did not speak anything that day, for he said, “It is an accident; he is not clean; surely he is not clean.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:29 - and he said, ‘Please send me on my way, since our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has commanded me to attend. So now, if I have found favor in your sight, please let me get away that I may see my brothers.' For this reason he has not come to the king's table.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:34 - Then Jonathan arose from the table in burning anger and did not eat food on the second day of the new moon, for he was grieved over David because his father had dishonored him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:36 - And he said to his young man, “Run, find now the arrows which I am about to shoot.” As the young man was running, he shot [fn]an arrow past him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:42 - And Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, inasmuch as we have sworn to each other in the name of Yahweh, saying, ‘Yahweh will be between me and you, and between my seed and your seed forever.'” [fn]Then he rose and departed, while Jonathan went into the city.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:2 - And David said to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has commanded me with a matter and has said to me, ‘Let no one know anything about the matter on which I am sending you and with which I have commanded you; and I have directed the young men to a certain place.'
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:5 - And David answered the priest and said to him, “Surely women have been kept from us as previously when I set out and the vessels of the young men were holy, though it was an ordinary journey; how much more then today will [fn]their vessels be holy?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:7 -

Now one of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before Yahweh; and his name was Doeg the Edomite, the chief of Saul's shepherds.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:8 -

And David said to Ahimelech, “Now is there not a spear or a sword [fn]on hand? For I brought neither my sword nor my weapons in my hand because the king's matter was urgent.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:9 - Then the priest said, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you struck down in the valley of Elah, behold, it is wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod; if you would take it for yourself, take it. For there is no other except it here.” And David said, “There is none like it; give it to me.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:10 -

Then David arose and fled that day from Saul and went to Achish king of Gath.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:11 - But the servants of Achish said to him, “Is this not David the king of the land? Did they not sing of this one as they danced, saying,

‘Saul has struck his thousands,

And David his ten thousands'?”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:12 -

And David took these words [fn]to heart and greatly feared Achish king of Gath.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:13 - So he disguised his sanity in their sight and acted insanely in their hands and scribbled on the doors of the gate and let his saliva run down into his beard.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:2 - Then everyone who was in distress, and everyone who [fn]was in debt, and everyone who was bitter of soul, gathered to him; and he became a commander over them. Now there were about four hundred men with him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:4 - Then he left them with the king of Moab; and they stayed with him all the time that David was in the fortress.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:5 - And the prophet Gad said to David, “Do not stay in the fortress; go, and enter into the land of Judah.” So David went and entered into the forest of Hereth.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:6 -

Then Saul heard that David and the men who were with him had been discovered. Now Saul was sitting in Gibeah, under the tamarisk tree on the height with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing around him.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:8 - “For all of you have conspired against me so that there is no one who reveals in my ear when my son cuts a covenant with the son of Jesse, and there is none of you who is sorry for me or reveals in my ear that my son has caused my servant to rise up against me to lie in ambush, as it is this day.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:11 -

Then the king sent someone to summon Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's household, the priests who were in Nob; and all of them came to the king.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:14 -

Then Ahimelech answered the king and said, “And who among all your servants is as faithful as David, even the king's son-in-law, who [fn]is captain over your guard, and is honored in your house?

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:15 - “Did I just begin to ask of God on his behalf today? Far be it from me! Do not let the king impute anything to his servant or to any of the household of my father, for your servant knows nothing small or great of this whole affair.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:18 - Then the king said to Doeg, “You turn around and [fn]attack the priests.” And Doeg the Edomite turned around and [fn]attacked the priests, and he put to death that day eighty-five men who wore the linen ephod.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:19 - So he struck Nob the city of the priests with the edge of the sword, both men and women, infants and nursing babies; also oxen, donkeys, and sheep he struck with the edge of the sword.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:22 - Then David said to Abiathar, “I knew on that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. It is I who have turned against every person in your father's household.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:1 -

Then they told David, saying, “Behold, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah and are pillaging the threshing floors.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:2 - So David asked of Yahweh, saying, “Shall I go and strike these Philistines?” And Yahweh said to David, “Go and strike the Philistines and save Keilah.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:3 - But David's men said to him, “Behold, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the battle lines of the Philistines?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:5 - So David and his men went to Keilah and fought with the Philistines; and he led away their livestock and struck them with a great slaughter. Thus David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:6 -

Now it happened when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David at Keilah, that he came down with an ephod in his hand.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:14 - And David stayed in the wilderness in the strongholds and remained in the hill country in the wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God did not give him into his hand.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:15 -

Then David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life. Now David was in the wilderness of Ziph at Horesh.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:16 - So Jonathan, Saul's son, arose and went to David at Horesh and strengthened his hand in God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:18 - So the two of them cut a covenant before Yahweh; and David stayed at Horesh while Jonathan went to his house.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:19 -

Then Ziphites came up to Saul at Gibeah, saying, “Is David not hiding with us in the strongholds at Horesh, on the hill of Hachilah, which is on the [fn]south of [fn]Jeshimon?

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:22 - “Go now, make more sure, and know and see his place—where his very foot is—and who has seen him there; for I am told that he is very crafty.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:23 - “So see and know about all the hiding places where he hides himself and return to me with certainty, and I will go with you; and if he is in the land, I will search him out among all the thousands of Judah.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:24 -

Then they arose and went to Ziph before Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah to the [fn]south of [fn]Jeshimon.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:25 - So Saul and his men went to seek him, and they told David, and he came down to the rock and stayed in the wilderness of Maon. And Saul heard it and pursued David in the wilderness of Maon.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:29 - [fn]Then David went up from there and stayed in the strongholds of Engedi.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:1 -

Now when Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, he was told, saying, “Behold, David is in the wilderness of Engedi.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:4 - Then the men of David said to him, “Behold, this is the day of which Yahweh said to you, ‘Behold, I am about to give your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it seems good in your eyes.'” Then David arose and cut off the edge of Saul's robe secretly.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:7 - And David tore his men to pieces with these words and did not allow them to rise up against Saul. And Saul arose, [fn]left the cave, and went on his way.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:10 - “Behold, this day your eyes have seen that Yahweh had given you today into my hand in the cave, and some said to kill you, but my eye had pity on you; and I said, ‘I will not send forth my hand against my lord, for he is the anointed of Yahweh.'
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:11 - “Now, my father, see! Indeed, see the edge of your robe in my hand! For in that I cut off the edge of your robe and did not kill you, know and see that there is no evil or transgression in my hand, and I have not sinned against you, though you are lying in wait for my life to take it.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:19 - “For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away [fn]safely? May Yahweh therefore reward you with good in return for what you have done to me this day.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:20 - “So now, behold, I know that you will surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel will be established in your hand.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:21 - “So now swear to me by Yahweh that you will not cut off my seed after me and that you will not destroy my name from my father's household.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:1 -

Then Samuel died; and all Israel gathered together and lamented for him and buried him at his house in Ramah. And David arose and went down to the wilderness of Paran.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:2 -

Now there was a man in Maon whose work was in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep and one thousand goats. And it happened, while he was shearing his sheep in Carmel

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:3 - (now the man's name was Nabal, and his wife's name was Abigail. And the woman was good in insight and beautiful in appearance, but the man was harsh and evil in his dealings, and he was a Calebite),
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:4 - that David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:7 - ‘So now I have heard that you have shearers; now your shepherds have been with us; and we have not dishonored them, nor have they missed anything all the days they were in Carmel.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:8 - ‘Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we have come on a [fn]festive day. Please give whatever you find at hand to your servants and to your son, to David.'”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:9 -

Then David's young men came and spoke to Nabal according to all these words in David's name. Then they waited.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:15 - “Yet the men were very good to us, and we were not dishonored, nor did we miss anything [fn]as long as we went about with them, while we were in the field.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:20 - So it was happening, as she was riding on her donkey and coming down by the hidden part of the mountain, that behold, David and his men were coming down toward her; and she met them.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:21 - Now David had said, “Surely for a lie I have guarded all that this man has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that belonged to him; and he has returned me evil for good.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:24 - And she fell at his feet and said, “On me [fn]alone, my lord, be the blame. And please let your maidservant speak in your ears, and listen to the words of your maidservant.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:28 - “Please forgive the transgression of your maidservant; for Yahweh will certainly make for my lord an enduring house because my lord is fighting the battles of Yahweh, and evil will not be found in you all your days.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:29 - “And should anyone rise up to pursue you and to seek your [fn]life, then the [fn]life of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of the living with Yahweh your God; but the [fn]lives of your enemies He will sling out [fn]as from the hollow of a sling.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:32 -

Then David said to Abigail, “Blessed be Yahweh, the God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me,

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:33 - and blessed be your discernment, and blessed be you, who have kept me this day from [fn]bloodshed and from saving myself by my own hand.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:36 -

Then Abigail came to Nabal, and behold, he was holding a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. And Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk; so she did not tell him anything small or great until the morning light.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:37 - But in the morning, when the wine had gone out of Nabal, his wife told him these things, and his heart died within him so that he became as a stone.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:1 -

Then the Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah, saying, “Is not David hiding on the hill of Hachilah, which is before [fn]Jeshimon?”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:2 - So Saul arose and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having with him three thousand chosen men of Israel, to search for David in the wilderness of Ziph.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:3 - And Saul camped in the hill of Hachilah, which is before [fn]Jeshimon, beside the road. Now David was staying in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul came after him into the wilderness.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:5 - David then arose and came to the place where Saul had camped. And David saw the place where Saul lay, as well as Abner the son of Ner, the commander of his army; and Saul was lying in the circle of the camp, and the people were camped around him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:7 - So David and Abishai came to the people by night, and behold, Saul lay sleeping inside the circle of the camp with his spear stuck in the ground at his head; and Abner and the people were lying around him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:15 - So David said to Abner, “Are you not a man? And who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not guarded your lord the king? For one of the people came to destroy the king your lord.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:18 - He also said, “Why then is my lord pursuing his servant? For what have I done? Or what evil is in my hand?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:19 - “So now, please let my lord the king listen to the words of his servant. If Yahweh has incited you up against me, let Him [fn]accept an offering; but if it is [fn]men, cursed are they before Yahweh, for they have driven me out today so that I would have no attachment with the inheritance of Yahweh, saying, ‘Go, serve other gods.'

Then David said to Achish, “If now I have found favor in your sight, let them give me a place in one of the cities in the country, that I may live there; for why should your servant live in the royal city with you?”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 2:23 - However, he refused to turn aside; therefore Abner struck him in the belly with the butt end of the spear, so that the spear came out at his back.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 2:32 - And they took up Asahel and buried him in his father's tomb which was in Bethlehem. Then Joab and his men went all night until the day [fn]dawned at Hebron.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 3:30 - So Joab and Abishai his brother killed Abner because he had put their brother Asahel to death in the battle at Gibeon.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 3:34 -

“Your hands were not bound, nor your feet put in fetters;

As one falls before the [fn]unrighteous, you have fallen.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 3:38 - Then the king said to his servants, “Do you not know that a prince and a great man has fallen this day in Israel?

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 4:4 -

Now Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son crippled in his feet. He was five years old when the report of Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel, and his nurse took him up and fled. And it happened that in her hurry to flee, he fell and became lame. And his name was [fn]Mephibosheth.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 4:5 -

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 4:7 - Thus they came into the house, as he was lying on his bed in his bedroom, and they struck him and put him to death and beheaded him. And they took his head and went on the way leading to the Arabah all night.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 4:12 - Then David commanded the young men, and they killed them and cut off their hands and feet and hung them up beside the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ish-bosheth and buried it in the grave of Abner in Hebron.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 5:3 - So all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and King David cut a covenant with them in Hebron before Yahweh; then they anointed David king over Israel.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 5:4 - Now David was thirty years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 5:5 - At Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 5:8 - And David said on that day, “Whoever would strike down the Jebusites, let him reach the lame and the blind, who are hated by David's soul, through the water tunnel.” Therefore they say, “The blind or the lame shall not come into the house.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 5:24 - “And it will be that when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the [fn]balsam trees, then you shall act promptly, for then Yahweh will have gone out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:2 - And David arose and went with all the people who were with him [fn]from [fn]Baale-judah, to bring up from there the ark of God which is called by the Name, the very name of Yahweh of hosts who is [fn]enthroned above the cherubim.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:3 - And they [fn]drove the ark of God on a new cart that they might bring it from the house of Abinadab which was on the hill; and [fn]Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, were leading the new cart.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:8 - And David became angry because [fn]of Yahweh's breaking out against Uzzah; and that place is called [fn]Perez-uzzah to this day.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:9 - So David was afraid of Yahweh that day; and he said, “How can the ark of Yahweh come to me?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:12 -

Then it was told to King David, saying, “Yahweh has blessed the house of Obed-edom and all that belongs to him, on account of the ark of God.” So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-edom into the city of David with gladness.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:14 - And David was dancing before Yahweh with all his strength, and David was girded with a linen ephod.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:16 -

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:18 - Then David completed offering the burnt offerings and the peace offerings. And he blessed the people in the name of Yahweh of hosts.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 6:20 -

But David returned to bless his household, and Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David and said, “How the king of Israel has glorified himself today! He uncovered himself today in the eyes of his servants' maids as one of the worthless ones shamelessly uncovers himself!”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:6 - “For I have not inhabited a house since the day I brought up the sons of Israel from Egypt, even to this day; but I have been going about in a tent, even in a [fn]tabernacle.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:7 - “Wherever I have gone about with all the sons of Israel, did I speak a word with one of the tribes of Israel, which I commanded to shepherd My people Israel, saying, ‘Why have you not built Me a house of cedar?'”'

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 8:2 -

He also struck Moab, and measured them with the line, making them lie down on the ground; and he measured two lines to put to death and one full line to keep alive. And the Moabites became servants to David, bringing tribute.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 10:5 - Then they told it to David. And he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly dishonored. And the king said, “[fn]Stay at Jericho until your beards grow, and then return.”

So the messenger went and came and told David all that Joab had sent him to tell.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:25 - Then David said to the messenger, “Thus you shall say to Joab, ‘Do not let this thing be evil in your sight, for the sword devours one as well as another; make your battle against the city stronger and [fn]tear it down'; and so strengthen him.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:8 - ‘I also gave you your master's house and your master's wives into your [fn]care, and I gave you the house of Israel and Judah; and if that had been too little, I would have added to you many more things like these!
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:9 - ‘Why have you despised the word of Yahweh by doing evil in His sight? You have struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword, have taken his wife to be your wife, and have killed him with the sword of the sons of Ammon.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:16 - David therefore sought God about the boy; and David fasted and went and spent the night lying on the ground.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:18 - Then it happened on the seventh day that the child died. And the servants of David were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said, “Behold, while the child was still alive, we spoke to him and he did not listen to our voice. How then can we tell him that the child has died? He might do himself harm!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:22 - Then he said, “While the child was still alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, ‘Who knows, Yahweh may be gracious to me, that the child may live.'

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:31 - He also brought out the people who were in it and set them up with saws, sharp iron instruments, and iron axes, and made them pass through the brickkiln. And thus he used to do to all the cities of the sons of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:2 - And Amnon was so distressed because of his sister Tamar that he made himself ill, for she was a virgin. So it was hard in Amnon's sight to do anything to her.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:6 - So Amnon lay down and pretended to be ill; and the king came to see him, and Amnon said to the king, “Please let my sister Tamar come and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:12 - But she said to him, “No, my brother, do not violate me, for such a thing is not done in Israel; do not do this disgraceful thing!

Then Absalom commanded his young men, saying, “See now, when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and when I say to you, ‘Strike Amnon,' then put him to death. Do not fear; have not I myself commanded you? Be strong and be [fn]valiant.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:30 -

Now it was while they were on the way that the report came to David, saying, “Absalom has struck down all the king's sons, and not one of them is left.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:34 -

Then Absalom fled. And the young man who was the watchman raised his eyes and looked, and behold, many people were coming from the road behind him by the side of the mountain.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:3 - then you shall go to the king and speak to him in this manner.” So Joab put the words in her mouth.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:6 - “And your servant-woman had two sons, but the two of them struggled together in the field, and there was no one to deliver between them, so one struck the other and put him to death.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:20 - in order to change the appearance of things your servant Joab has done this thing. But my lord is wise, like the wisdom of the angel of God, to know all that is in the earth.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:22 - And Joab fell on his face to the ground, prostrated himself and blessed the king; then Joab said, “Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, O my lord, the king, in that the king has performed the word of his servant.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:25 -

Now in all Israel was no one as handsome as Absalom, so highly praised; from the sole of his foot to the top of his head there was no defect in him.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:26 - When he shaved the hair of his head (and it was at the end of every year that he shaved it, for it was heavy on him so he shaved it), he weighed the hair of his head at [fn]200 shekels by the king's weight.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:28 -

Now Absalom lived two full years in Jerusalem, and did not see the king's face.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:30 - Therefore he said to his servants, “See, Joab's portion of land is next to mine, and he has barley there; go and set it on fire.” So Absalom's servants set the portion of land on fire.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:31 - Then Joab arose, came to Absalom at his house and said to him, “Why have your servants set my portion of land on fire?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:32 - And Absalom [fn]answered Joab, “Behold, I sent for you, saying, ‘Come here, that I may send you to the king, to say, “Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me still to be there.”' So now, let me see the king's face, and if there is iniquity in me, let him put me to death.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:4 - Then Absalom would say, “Oh that one would appoint me judge in the land, then every man who has any case or judgment could come to me and I would justify him.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:5 - And when a man came near to prostrate himself before him, he would send forth his hand and take hold of him and kiss him.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:10 - Then Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, ‘Absalom is king in Hebron.'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:12 - And Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh, while he was offering the sacrifices. And the conspiracy was strong, for the people increased continually with Absalom.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:14 - So David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, “Arise and let us flee, for otherwise there will be no escape for us from Absalom. Go in haste, lest he overtake us hastily and drive calamity on us and strike the city with the edge of the sword.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:17 - And the king went out and all the people [fn]with him, and they stopped at the last house.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:18 - Now all his servants passed on beside him, all the Cherethites, all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who had come [fn]with him from Gath, passed on before the king.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:27 - The king said also to Zadok the priest, “Are you not a seer? Return to the city in peace and your two sons with you, your son Ahimaaz and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:28 - “See, I am going to wait at the fords of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:30 -

But David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went, and his head was covered and he was walking barefoot. And all the people who were with him each covered his head and went up weeping as they went.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:31 - Now David informed them, saying, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” And David said, “O Yahweh, I pray, make the counsel of Ahithophel foolishness.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:36 - “Behold, their two sons are with them there, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son and Jonathan, Abiathar's son; and by their hand you shall send me everything that you hear.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:2 - And the king said to Ziba, “Why do you have these?” And Ziba said, “The donkeys are for the king's household to ride, and the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine, for whoever is faint in the wilderness to drink.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:3 - Then the king said, “And where is your master's son?” And Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said, ‘Today the house of Israel will return the kingdom of my father to me.'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:4 - So the king said to Ziba, “Behold, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours.” And Ziba said, “I prostrate myself; let me find favor in your sight, O my lord, the king!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:6 - He also threw stones at David and at all the servants of King David; and all the people and all the mighty men were at his right hand and at his left.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:7 - And thus Shimei said when he cursed, “Get out, get out, you man of bloodshed, and vile fellow!
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:8 - “Yahweh has returned upon you all the bloodshed of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned; and Yahweh has given the kingdom into the hand of your son Absalom. And behold, you are taken in your own evil, for you are a man of bloodshed!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:12 - “Perhaps Yahweh will look on my affliction and [fn]return good to me instead of his cursing this day.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:13 - So David and his men went on the way; and Shimei went along on the hillside parallel with him and as he went he cursed and cast stones and threw dust at him.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:23 - Now the counsel of Ahithophel, which he counseled in those days, was as if one asked of the word of God; so was all the counsel of Ahithophel regarded by both David and Absalom.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:8 - Then Hushai said, “You know your father and his men, that they are mighty men and they are bitter of soul, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field. And your father is a man of war, and will not spend the night with the people.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:9 - “Behold, he has now hidden himself in one of the [fn]caves or in another place; and it will be [fn]when he falls on them at the first attack, that whoever hears it will say, ‘There has been a slaughter among the people who follow Absalom.'
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:11 - “But I counsel that all Israel be utterly gathered to you, from Dan even to Beersheba, as the sand that is by the sea in abundance, and that [fn]you personally go into battle.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:12 - “So we shall come to him in one of the places where he can be found, and we will set down on him as the dew falls on the ground; and of him and of all the men who are with him, not even one will be left.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:16 - “So now, send quickly and inform David, saying, ‘Do not spend the night at the fords of the wilderness, but by all means cross over, lest the king and all the people who are with him be swallowed up.'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:17 - Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz were staying at En-rogel, and a servant-woman would go and inform them, and they would go and inform King David, for they could not be seen entering the city.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:18 - But a boy did see them and informed Absalom; so the two of them went quickly and came to the house of a man in Bahurim, who had a well in his courtyard, and they went down [fn]into it.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:23 -

Now Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not [fn]followed. So he [fn]saddled his donkey and arose and went to his home, to his city, and [fn]set his house in order, and strangled himself; thus he died and was buried in the grave of his father.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:29 - honey, curds, sheep, and cheese of the herd, for David and for the people who were with him, to eat; for they said, “The people are hungry and weary and thirsty in the wilderness.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:2 - And David sent the people out, one-third under the hand of Joab, one-third under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and one-third under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said to the people, “I myself will surely go out with you also.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:3 - But the people said, “You should not go out; for if we indeed flee, they will not set their heart on us; even if half of us die, they will not set their heart on us. But now [fn]you are worth ten thousand of us; so now it is better that you be ready to help us from the city.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:4 - Then the king said to them, “Whatever is good in your sight I will do.” So the king stood beside the gate, and all the people went out by hundreds and thousands.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:6 -

Then the people went out into the field to meet Israel, and the battle took place in the forest of Ephraim.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:7 - And the people of Israel were [fn]defeated there before the servants of David, and the slaughter there that day was great, 20,000 men.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:8 - And the battle there was scattered over the whole countryside, and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:9 -

Then Absalom happened to meet the servants of David. Now Absalom was riding on his mule, and the mule went under the thick branches of a great oak. And his head caught fast in the oak, so he was [fn]left hanging between heaven and earth, while the mule that was under him passed onward.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:10 - Then a certain man saw it, he told Joab and said, “Behold, I saw Absalom hanging in an oak.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:12 - So the man said to Joab, “Even if I should receive one thousand pieces of silver in my hand, I would not send forth my hand against the king's son; for in our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, ‘[fn]Keep for me the young man Absalom!'
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:13 - “Otherwise, if I had dealt treacherously against his life (and there is nothing hidden from the king), then you yourself would have stood aloof.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:14 - Then Joab said, “I will not wait around here before you.” So he took three [fn]spears in his hand and thrust them through the heart of Absalom while he was yet alive in the [fn]midst of the oak.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:16 -

Then Joab blew the trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing Israel, for Joab restrained the people.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:17 - And they took Absalom and cast him into [fn]a deep pit in the forest and set over him a very great heap of stones. And all Israel fled, each to his tent.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:18 - Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and set up for himself a pillar which is in the King's Valley, for he had said, “I have no son [fn]to preserve my name.” So he named the pillar after his own name, and it is called Absalom's Monument to this day.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:20 - But Joab said to him, “You are not the man for the good news this day, but you shall proclaim the good news another day; however, you shall not proclaim the good news today because the king's son has died.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:25 - And the watchman called and told the king. And the king said, “If he is by himself there is good news in his mouth.” And he came nearer and nearer.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:28 -

And Ahimaaz called and said to the king, “Peace!” And he prostrated himself before the king with his [fn]face to the ground. And he said, “Blessed is Yahweh your God, who has delivered up the men who lifted their hands against my lord the king.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:33 -

[fn]Then the king trembled and went up to the chamber over the gate and wept. And thus he said as he walked, “O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! Would I had died instead of you, O Absalom, my son, my son!”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:2 - And the salvation that day was turned to mourning for all the people, for the people heard it said that day, “The king is grieved for his son.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:3 - So the people stole away to enter into the city that day, as people who are dishonored steal away when they flee in battle.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:6 - by loving those who hate you, and by hating those who love you. For you have informed all of us today that [fn]princes and servants are nothing to you; for I know this day that if Absalom were alive and all of us were dead today, surely then it would be right in your eyes.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:7 - “So now, arise, go out and speak to the heart of your servants, for I swear by Yahweh, if you do not go out, surely not a man will pass the night with you, and this will be of greater evil for you than all the evil that has come upon you from your youth until now.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:8 - So the king arose and sat in the gate. And they told all the people, saying, “Behold, the king is sitting in the gate.” Then all the people came before the king.

Now Israel had fled, each to his tent.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:9 - And it happened that all the people were disputing throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us from the [fn]hand of our enemies and provided us escape from the [fn]hand of the Philistines, but now he has fled out of the land from Absalom.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:10 - “However, Absalom, whom we anointed over us, has died in battle. So now, why are you silent about having the king return?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:18 - Then they kept passing over the ford to cause the king's household to pass over, and to do what was good in his sight. And Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king as he was about to pass over the Jordan.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:19 - So he said to the king, “Let not my lord consider me guilty, nor remember what your servant did wrong on the day when my lord the king went out from Jerusalem, so that the king would [fn]take it to heart.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:24 -

Now Mephibosheth the [fn]son of Saul had come down to meet the king; and he had not done anything for his feet, nor done anything for his mustache, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came home in peace.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:27 - “Moreover, he has slandered your servant to my lord the king; but my lord the king is like the angel of God, therefore do what is good in your sight.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:28 - “For all my father's household was nothing but men worthy of death before my lord the king; yet you set your servant among those who ate at your own table. What right do I have yet that I should [fn]complain anymore to the king?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:30 - And Mephibosheth said to the king, “Let him even take it all, since my lord the king has come in peace to his own house.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:32 - Now Barzillai was very old, being eighty years old; and he had [fn]sustained the king while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very great man.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:33 - And the king said to Barzillai, “You pass over with me and I will [fn]sustain you in Jerusalem with me.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:37 - “Please let your servant return, that I may die in my own city near the grave of my father and my mother. However, here is your servant Chimham, let him pass over with my lord the king, and do for him what is good in your sight.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:38 - So the king answered, “Chimham shall pass over with me, and I will do for him what is good in your sight; and whatever you [fn]require of me, I will do for you.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:43 - But the men of Israel answered the men of Judah and said, “[fn]We have ten parts in the king, therefore [fn]we also have more claim on David than you. Why then did you treat us with contempt? Was it not [fn]our word first to have [fn]our king return?” Yet the words of the men of Judah were harsher than the words of the men of Israel.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:1 -

Now a vile fellow happened to be there whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjamite; and he blew the trumpet and said,

Every man to his tents, O Israel!”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:3 -

Then David came to his house at Jerusalem, and the king took the ten women, the concubines whom he had left to keep the house, and placed them under guard and provided them with sustenance, but did not go in to them. So they were shut up until the day of their death, living as widows.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:8 - They were at the large stone which is in Gibeon, and Amasa came [fn]to meet them. Now Joab was [fn]dressed in his military attire, and over it was a belt with a sword in its sheath fastened at his [fn]waist; and as he came out, it fell out.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:10 - But Amasa was not on guard against the sword which was in Joab's hand so he struck him in the belly with it and poured out his inward parts on the ground, and did not strike him again, and he died. Then Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba the son of Bichri.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:12 - But Amasa lay wallowing in his blood in the middle of the highway. And the man saw that all the people stood still. So he [fn]removed Amasa from the highway into the field and threw a garment over him when he saw that everyone who came by him stood still.

Now he went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel, even Beth-maacah, and all the Berites; and they were assembled and also came after him.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:15 - So they came and besieged him in Abel Beth-maacah, and they [fn]cast up a siege ramp against the city, and it stood by the rampart; and all the people who were with Joab were wreaking destruction in order to cause the wall to fall.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:18 - Then she spoke, saying, “Formerly they used to speak in this way, saying, ‘They will surely ask advice at Abel,' and thus they ended the dispute.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:19 - “I am of those who are peaceable and faithful in Israel. You are seeking to put to death a city, even a mother in Israel. Why would you swallow up the inheritance of Yahweh?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:22 - Then the woman came to all the people in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri and threw it to Joab. So he blew the trumpet, and they were scattered from the city, each to his tent. Joab also returned to the king at Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:1 -

And there was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year; and David sought the presence of Yahweh. And Yahweh said, “It is for Saul and his bloody house, because he put the Gibeonites to death.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:2 - So the king called the Gibeonites and spoke to them (now the Gibeonites were not of the sons of Israel but of the remnant of the Amorites, and the sons of Israel [fn]made a covenant with them, but Saul had sought to strike them down in his zeal for the sons of Israel and Judah).
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:3 - Thus David said to the Gibeonites, “What should I do for you? And how can I make atonement that you may bless the inheritance of Yahweh?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:4 - Then the Gibeonites said to him, “We have no concern of silver or gold with Saul or his house, nor is it for us to put any man to death in Israel.” And he said, “I will do for you whatever you say.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:5 - So they said to the king, “The man who consumed us and who planned [fn]to eradicate us from standing within any border of Israel,
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:6 - let seven men from his sons be given to us, and we will [fn]hang them before Yahweh in Gibeah of Saul, the chosen of Yahweh.” And the king said, “I will give them.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:10 -

And Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until [fn]it rained on them from the sky; and she [fn]allowed neither the birds of the sky to rest on them by day nor the beasts of the field by night.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:12 - So David went and took the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from the men of Jabesh-gilead, who had stolen them from the open square of Beth-shan, where the Philistines had hanged them on the day the Philistines struck down Saul in Gilboa.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:14 - Then they buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the land of Benjamin in Zela, in the grave of Kish his father; thus they did all that the king commanded, and afterwards God was moved by the entreaty for the land.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:16 - Then Ishbi-benob, who was among those born to the [fn]giants, the weight of whose spear was [fn]three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, [fn]was girded with a new sword, and he [fn]intended to strike down David.

Now it happened that at the end of twenty years in which Solomon had built the two houses, the house of Yahweh and the king's house

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 9:11 - (Hiram king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with cedar and cypress timber and gold according to all his desire), that King Solomon then gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 9:15 -

Now this is the account of the forced labor which King Solomon raised up to build the house of Yahweh, his own house, the [fn]Millo, the wall of Jerusalem, Hazor, Megiddo, and Gezer.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 9:20 - As for all the people who were left of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites, who were not of the sons of Israel,

Now the queen of Sheba heard the report about Solomon concerning the name of Yahweh. So she came to test him with riddles.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 10:2 - She came to Jerusalem with a very glorious retinue, with camels carrying spices and very much gold and precious stones. And she came to Solomon and spoke to him about all that was in her heart.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 10:5 - the food of his table, the seating of his servants, the disposition of his attendants and their attire, his cupbearers, and [fn]his stairway by which he went up to the house of Yahweh, so that there was no more spirit in her.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 10:14 -

Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold,

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 10:21 - Now all King Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold. None was of silver; it was not considered [fn]valuable in the days of Solomon.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 10:22 - For the king had at sea the ships of Tarshish with the ships of Hiram; once every three years the ships of Tarshish came carrying gold and silver, ivory and apes and peacocks.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 10:24 - And all the earth was seeking the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom which God had put in his heart.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 11:15 -

Now it happened that when David was in Edom, and Joab the commander of the army had gone up to bury the slain, and had struck down every male in Edom

But Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers and that Joab the commander of the army had died. So Hadad said to Pharaoh, “Send me away, that I may go to my own country.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 11:25 - So he was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, along with the evil that Hadad did; and he abhorred Israel and reigned over Aram.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 11:29 - Now it happened at that time, that Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, and that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him on the road. Now [fn]he had covered himself with a new cloak; and both of them were alone in the field.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 11:32 - but he will have one tribe, for the sake of My servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen from all the tribes of Israel,
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 11:33 - because they have forsaken Me, and have worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of Moab, and Milcom the god of the sons of Ammon; and they have not walked in My ways to do what is right in My sight and to keep My statutes and My judgments, as his father David did.

Now the rest of the acts of Solomon and whatever he did, and his wisdom, are they not written in the book of the acts of Solomon?

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 11:42 - Thus the time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 11:43 - And Solomon slept with his fathers and was buried in the city of his father David, and his son Rehoboam became king in his place.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 12:16 -

Then all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them. So the people responded to the king with this word, saying,

“What portion do we have in David?

We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse;

To your tents, O Israel!

Now see to your own house, David!”

So Israel went to their tents.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 12:18 - Then King Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the forced labor, and all Israel [fn]stoned him and he died. And King Rehoboam made haste to mount his chariot to flee to Jerusalem.

And he had the priests of the high places, which he had made, stand in Bethel.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 12:33 - Then he [fn]went up to the altar which he had made in Bethel on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, even in the month which he had [fn]devised [fn]in his own heart; and he made a feast for the sons of Israel and [fn]went up to the altar to burn [fn]incense.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:1 -

Now behold, there came a man of God from Judah to Bethel by the word of Yahweh, while Jeroboam was standing by the altar to burn incense.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:2 - And he cried against the altar by the word of Yahweh, and said, “O altar, altar, thus says Yahweh, ‘Behold, a son shall be born to the house of David, Josiah is his name; and on you he shall sacrifice the priests of the high places who burn incense on you, and human bones shall be burned on you.'”
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:3 - Then he gave a miraculous sign the same day, saying, “This is the miraculous sign which Yahweh has spoken, ‘Behold, the altar shall be torn apart and the [fn]ashes which are on it shall be poured out.'”
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:4 - Now it happened that when the king heard the word of the man of God, which he cried against the altar in Bethel, Jeroboam stretched out his hand from the altar, saying, “Seize him.” But his hand which he stretched out against him dried up, so that he could not draw it back to himself.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:10 - So he went another way and did not return by the way which he came to Bethel.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:11 -

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:12 - And their father said to them, “[fn]Which way did he go?” And his sons [fn]had seen the way which the man of God who came from Judah had gone.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:18 - And he said to him, “I also am a prophet like you, and an angel spoke to me by the word of Yahweh, saying, ‘Bring him back with you to your house, that he may eat bread and drink water.'” But he dealt falsely with him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:19 - So he went back with him, and ate bread in his house and drank water.

Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:30 - He laid his body in his own grave, and they mourned over him, saying, “Alas, my brother!”
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:31 - Now it happened after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons, saying, “When I die, you shall bury me in the grave in which the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones.
Unchecked Copy Box1Ki 13:32 - “For the word shall surely happen which he cried by the word of Yahweh against the altar in Bethel and against all the houses of the high places which are in the cities of Samaria.”

Now all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them. So the people responded to the king, saying,

“What portion do we have in David?

We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse.

Every man to your tents, O Israel;

Now see to your own house, David.”

So all Israel went to their tents.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 10:17 - But as for the sons of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.

When Yahweh saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Yahweh came to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves so I will not bring them to ruin, but I will grant them some measure of escape, and My wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 12:9 -

And his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 12:15 -

Now the acts of Rehoboam, from first to last, are they not written in the [fn]records of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, according to genealogical record? Now there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 13:9 - “Have you not driven out the priests of Yahweh, the sons of Aaron and the Levites, and made for yourselves priests like the peoples of other lands? Whoever comes to ordain himself with a bull from the herd and seven rams, even he may become a priest of what are no gods.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 13:10 - “But as for us, Yahweh is our God, and we have not forsaken Him; and the sons of Aaron are ministering to Yahweh as priests, and the Levites are in their work.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 13:12 - “And behold, God is with us at our head and His priests with the signal trumpets to raise the shout of war against you. O sons of Israel, do not fight against Yahweh, the God of your fathers, for you will not succeed.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 13:15 - Then the men of Judah raised a shout of war, and when the men of Judah raised the shout of war, then it was that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 13:17 - And Abijah and his people struck them down with a great slaughter, and 500,000 chosen men of Israel fell slain.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 13:18 - Thus the sons of Israel were subdued at that time, and the sons of Judah were strong because they leaned upon Yahweh, the God of their fathers.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 14:1 -

[fn]So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Asa his son became king in his place. The land was quiet for ten years during his days.

Then Zerah the Ethiopian went out against them with a military force of one million men and 300 chariots, and he came to Mareshah.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 14:10 - So Asa went out [fn]to meet him, and they arranged themselves for battle in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 14:11 - Then Asa called to Yahweh his God and said, “Yahweh, there is no one besides You to help in the battle between those of abundant power and those who have no power; so help us, O Yahweh our God, for we lean on You, and in Your name have come against this multitude. O Yahweh, You are our God; let not mortal man prevail against You.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 14:13 - And Asa and the people who were with him pursued them as far as Gerar; and so many Ethiopians fell that [fn]they could not recover, for they were shattered before Yahweh and before His [fn]army. And they carried away very much spoil.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:2 - and he went out [fn]to meet Asa and said to him, “Listen to me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin: Yahweh is with you when you are with Him. And if you seek Him, He will be found; but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:3 - “Now for many days Israel was without the true God and without a teaching priest and without law.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:8 -

Now when Asa heard these words and the [fn]prophecy which Azariah the son of Oded the prophet spoke, he strengthened himself and took away the detestable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities which he had captured in the hill country of Ephraim. He then renewed the altar of Yahweh which was in front of the porch of Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:9 - And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin and those from Ephraim, Manasseh and Simeon who sojourned with them, for many defected to him from Israel when they saw that Yahweh his God was with him.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:11 - And they sacrificed to Yahweh that day 700 oxen and 7,000 sheep from the spoil they had brought.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:12 - They entered into the covenant to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul;
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:14 - Moreover, they swore an oath to Yahweh with a loud voice, with shouting, with trumpets and with horns.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:15 - All Judah was glad concerning the oath, for they had sworn with their whole heart and had searched for Him with all their desire, and He was found by them. So Yahweh gave them rest on every side.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:16 -

He also removed Maacah, the mother of King Asa, from being queen mother, because she had made a horrid image [fn]as an Asherah; and Asa cut down her horrid image, crushed it and burned it at the brook Kidron.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 15:17 - But the high places were not [fn]removed from Israel; nevertheless Asa's heart was wholly devoted all his days.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:1 -

In the thirty-sixth year of Asa's reign Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah and built up Ramah in order to prevent anyone from going out or coming in to Asa king of Judah.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:2 - Then Asa brought out silver and gold from the treasuries of the house of Yahweh and the king's house, and sent them to Ben-hadad king of Aram, who lived in Damascus, saying,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:5 - Now it happened that when Baasha heard of it, he ceased building up Ramah and stopped his work.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:6 - Then King Asa brought all Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah and its timber with which Baasha had been building, and with them he built Geba and Mizpah.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:7 -

Now at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah and said to him, “Because you have leaned on the king of Aram and have not leaned on Yahweh your God, therefore the military force of the king of Aram has escaped out of your hand.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:8 - “Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubim a vast military force with an exceedingly vast number of chariots and horsemen? Yet because you leaned on Yahweh, He gave them into your hand.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:9 - “For the eyes of Yahweh move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is wholly devoted to Him. You have acted foolishly in this. Indeed, from now on you will surely have wars.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:10 - Then Asa was vexed with the seer and put him in [fn]prison, for he was enraged at him for this. And Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:11 -

Now behold, the acts of Asa from first to last, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:12 - And Asa became diseased in his feet in the thirty-ninth year of his reign. His disease was severe, yet even in his disease he did not seek Yahweh, but the physicians.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:13 - So Asa slept with his fathers. And he died in the forty-first year of his reign.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 16:14 - And they buried him in his own tomb which he had [fn]cut out for himself in the city of David, and they laid him in the resting place which he had filled with spices of various kinds blended by the perfumers' art; and they made a very great fire for him.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:2 - And he put military forces in all the fortified cities of Judah, and put garrisons in the land of Judah and in the cities of Ephraim which Asa his father had captured.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:3 - And Yahweh was with Jehoshaphat because he walked in the ways of his father David's earlier days and did not seek the Baals,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:4 - but sought the God of his father, walked in His commandments, and did not act as Israel did.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:5 - So Yahweh established the kingdom in his hand, and all Judah brought presents to Jehoshaphat, and he had great riches and honor.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:6 - And [fn]his heart took great pride in the ways of Yahweh, and again he took away the high places and the [fn]Asherim from Judah.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:7 -

Then in the third year of his reign he sent his officials, Ben-hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel and Micaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah;

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:9 - And they taught in Judah, having the book of the law of Yahweh with them; and they went throughout all the cities of Judah and taught among the people.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:13 - And he had large supplies in the cities of Judah, and men of war, mighty men of valor, in Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 17:19 -

These are they who attended on the king, apart from those whom the king put in the fortified cities through all Judah.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:1 -

Now Jehoshaphat had riches and honor in abundance; and he allied himself by marriage with Ahab.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:9 - Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, clothed in their royal garments, and they were sitting at the threshing floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:12 -

Now the messenger who went to summon Micaiah spoke to him saying, “Behold, the words of the prophets, as if from one mouth, are good to the king. So please let your word be like one of them and speak that which is good.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:15 - Then the king said to him, “How many times must I make you swear to speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of Yahweh?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:16 - So he said,

“I saw all Israel

Scattered on the mountains,

Like sheep which have no shepherd;

And Yahweh said,

‘These have no master.

Let each of them return to his house in peace.'”

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:19 - “And Yahweh said, ‘Who will entice Ahab king of Israel so that he will go up and fall at Ramoth-gilead?' And one said this while another said that.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:20 - “Then a spirit came forward and stood before Yahweh and said, ‘I will entice him.' And Yahweh said to him, ‘How?'
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:21 - “And he said, ‘I will go out and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' Then He said, ‘You shall entice him and also prevail. Go out and do so.'
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:22 - “So now, behold, Yahweh has put a lying spirit in the mouth of these your prophets, but Yahweh has spoken calamity against you.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:24 - And Micaiah said, “Behold, you will see on that day when you enter an inner room to hide.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:26 - and say, ‘Thus says the king, “Put this man in prison and feed him [fn]sparingly with bread and water until I return safely.”'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:27 - And Micaiah said, “If you indeed return safely, Yahweh has not spoken by me.” And he said, “Listen, all you people.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 18:34 - Now the battle raged that day, and the king of Israel propped himself up in his chariot in front of the Arameans until the evening; and at sunset he died.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 19:1 -

Then Jehoshaphat the king of Judah returned in peace to his house in Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 19:3 - “But some good has been found in you, for you have purged the [fn]Asheroth from the land and you have set your heart to seek God.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 19:4 -

So Jehoshaphat lived in Jerusalem. Indeed, he returned and went out among the people from Beersheba to the hill country of Ephraim and caused them to return back to Yahweh, the God of their fathers.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 19:5 - And he appointed judges in the land in all the fortified cities of Judah, in each city.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 19:8 -

In Jerusalem also Jehoshaphat appointed some of the Levites and priests, and some of the heads of the fathers' households of Israel, for the judgment of Yahweh and to judge [fn]disputes. So they returned to Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 19:9 - Then he commanded them saying, “Thus you shall do in the fear of Yahweh, faithfully and wholeheartedly.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 19:10 - “Whenever any dispute comes to you from your brothers who live in their cities, between blood and blood, between law and commandment, statutes and judgments, you shall warn them so that they may not be guilty before Yahweh and wrath may not come on you and your brothers.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:2 - Then some came and told Jehoshaphat, saying, “A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea, out of [fn]Aram and behold, they are in Hazazon-tamar (that is Engedi).”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:3 - And Jehoshaphat was afraid and [fn]set his face to seek Yahweh, and called for a fast throughout all Judah.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:5 -

Then Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of Yahweh before the new court,

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:6 - and he said, “O Yahweh, the God of our fathers, are You not God in the heavens? And are You not ruler over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in Your hand so that no one can take their stand against You.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:8 - “And they have lived in it, and have built You a sanctuary there for Your name, saying,
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:12 - “O our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this great multitude who are coming against us; and we do not know what we should do, but our eyes are on You.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:14 - Then in the midst of the assembly the Spirit of Yahweh came upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, the Levite of the sons of Asaph;
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:19 - Then the Levites, from the sons of the Kohathites and of the sons of the Korahites, rose up to praise Yahweh, the God of Israel, with a very loud voice.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:20 -

And they rose early in the morning and went out to the wilderness of Tekoa; and when they went out, Jehoshaphat stood and said, “Listen to me, O Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, establish your faith in Yahweh your God and you will be established. Establish your faith in His prophets and succeed.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:21 - When he had taken counsel with the people, he caused those who sang to Yahweh and those who praised Him to stand in holy attire, as they went out before the army, saying, “Give thanks to Yahweh, for His lovingkindness endures forever.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:22 - When they began singing for joy and praising, Yahweh set ambushes against the sons of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; so they were [fn]defeated.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:27 - And every man of Judah and Jerusalem returned with Jehoshaphat at their head, returning to Jerusalem with gladness, for Yahweh had made them glad over their enemies.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:28 - And they came to Jerusalem with harps, lyres, and trumpets to the house of Yahweh.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:29 - And the dread of God was on all the kingdoms of the lands when they heard that Yahweh had fought against the enemies of Israel.
Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:31 -

Thus Jehoshaphat reigned over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned in Jerusalem twenty-five years. And his mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.

Unchecked Copy Box2Ch 20:32 - And he walked in the way of his father Asa and did not turn away from it, doing what is right in the sight of Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 12:47 - So all Israel in the days of Zerubbabel and Nehemiah were giving the portions due the singers and the gatekeepers as each day required, and set apart the holy portion for the Levites, and the Levites set apart the holy portion for the sons of Aaron.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:1 -

On that day they read from the book of Moses in the hearing of the people; and there was found written in it that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever enter the assembly of God,

Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:2 - because they did not meet the sons of Israel with bread and water, but hired Balaam against them to curse them. However, our God turned the curse into a blessing.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:3 - So when they heard the law, they separated all foreigners from Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:4 -

Now prior to this, Eliashib the priest, who was put in charge over the chambers of the house of our God, being [fn]related to Tobiah,

Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:6 - But during all this time I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I had gone to the king. After some time, however, I asked leave from the king,
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:7 - and I came to Jerusalem and discerned the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobiah, by preparing a chamber for him in the courts of the house of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:14 - Remember me for this, O my God, and do not blot out my lovingkindnesses which I have shown for the house of my God and its responsibilities.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:15 -

In those days I saw in Judah some who were treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sacks of grain and loading them on donkeys, as well as wine, grapes, figs and all kinds of loads, and they brought them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day. So I testified against them on the day they sold food.

Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:16 - Also men of Tyre were living [fn]there who brought in fish and all kinds of merchandise, and sold them to the sons of Judah on the sabbath, even in Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:19 -

Now it happened that just as it grew dark at the gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I said the word, and the doors were shut. Then I said that they should not open them until after the sabbath. Then I had some of my young men stand at the gates so that no load would enter on the sabbath day.

Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:21 - Then I [fn]warned them and said to them, “Why do you spend the night in front of the wall? If you do so again, I will send forth my hand against you.” From that time on they did not come on the sabbath.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:23 -

In those days I also saw that the Jews had [fn]married women from Ashdod, Ammon, and Moab.

Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:25 - So I contended with them and cursed them and struck some of them and pulled out their hair and made them swear by God, “You shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor take up their daughters for your sons or for yourselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:26 - “Did not Solomon king of Israel sin regarding these things? Yet among the many nations there was no king like him, and he was loved by his God, and God gave him to be king over all Israel; nevertheless the foreign women caused even him to sin.
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:27 - [fn]Do we then hear about you that you have done all this great evil by acting unfaithfully against our God by [fn]marrying foreign women?”
Unchecked Copy BoxNeh 13:31 - and I arranged for the supply of wood at fixed times and for the first fruits. Remember me, O my God, for good.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 1:1 -

Now it happened in the days of Ahasuerus, the Ahasuerus who reigned from India to [fn]Ethiopia over 127 provinces,

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 1:2 - in those days as King Ahasuerus sat on his royal throne which was at the citadel in Susa,
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 1:3 - in the third year of his reign, he held a feast for all his princes and servants, the military officers of Persia and Media, the nobles and the princes of his provinces being in his presence,
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 1:5 -

And when these days were fulfilled, the king held a feast lasting seven days for all the people who were present at the citadel in Susa, from the greatest to the least, in the court of the garden of the king's palace.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 1:9 - Queen Vashti also held a feast for the women in the royal house which belonged to King Ahasuerus.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 1:10 -

On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he said for Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Carkas, the seven eunuchs who attended to the presence of King Ahasuerus,

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 1:20 - “And the king's sentence, which he will make, will be heard throughout all his kingdom, for it is [fn]vast, and all women will give respect to their husbands, great and small.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 1:22 - So he sent letters to all the king's provinces, to each province according to its script and to every people according to their tongue, that every man should be the ruler in his own house and the one who speaks in the tongue of his own people.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:3 - “And let the king appoint overseers in all the provinces of his kingdom that they may gather every young virgin, beautiful in appearance, to the citadel of Susa, to the harem, into the hand of Hegai, the king's eunuch, who keeps charge of the women; and let their cosmetics be given to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:5 -

Now there was at the citadel in Susa a Jew. And his name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite,

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:7 - And he was bringing up Hadassah, that is Esther, his uncle's daughter, for she had no father or mother. Now the young lady was beautiful in form and beautiful in appearance, and when her father and her mother died, Mordecai took her as his own daughter.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:9 - And the young lady was good in his eyes, and she advanced in lovingkindness before him. So he hurried to give her cosmetics and portions of food to her, and to give to her seven choice young women from the king's [fn]house. And he transferred her and her young women to the best place in the harem.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:12 -

Now when it reached the turn of each young lady to go in to King Ahasuerus, after the end of her twelve months under the regulations for the women—for the days of their cosmetic treatment were fulfilled as follows: six months with oil of myrrh and six months with spices and the cosmetics for women

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:15 -

Now when it reached the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai who had taken her as his daughter, to go in to the king, she did not seek anything except what Hegai, the king's eunuch who kept charge of the women, said. And Esther advanced in favor in the eyes of all who saw her.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:19 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 2:23 - Then the matter was sought out and found to be true, so they were both hanged on a [fn]gallows; and it was written in the book of the chronicles in the king's presence.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:2 - And all the king's servants who were at the king's gate were bowing down and prostrating themselves before Haman, for so the king had commanded concerning him. But Mordecai would not bow down or prostrate himself.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:3 - So the king's servants who were at the king's gate said to Mordecai, “Why do you trespass against the king's command?”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:7 -

In the first month, which is the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, [fn]Pur, that is the lot, was cast before Haman from day to day and from month to month, [fn]until the twelfth month, that is the month Adar.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:8 - Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, “There is a certain people scattered and separated among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom; their laws are different from those of all other people, and they do not do the king's laws, so it is not worth it for the king to let them remain.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 3:13 - And letters were sent by the hand of couriers to all the king's provinces to destroy, to kill, and to cause all the Jews to perish, both young and old, little ones and women, in one day, the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to plunder their spoil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:3 - Now in each and every province where the word and law of the king reached, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, weeping, and wailing; and many made their bed in sackcloth and ashes.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:8 - He also gave him a copy of the written law which had been given in Susa for their destruction, in order to show Esther and to tell her and to command her to go in to the king to implore his favor and to seek him out for her people.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:13 -

Then Mordecai said for them to respond to Esther, “Do not imagine that you in the king's [fn]house can escape any more than all the Jews.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:14 - “For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, and you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not reached 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 young women also will fast in the same way. And thus I will go in to the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:1 -

Now it happened on the third day, that Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's house 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 his house.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:2 - Now it happened that when the king saw Esther the queen standing in the court, she advanced in favor in his eyes; and the king extended to Esther the golden scepter which was in his hand. So Esther came near and [fn]reached out and touched the top of the scepter.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:6 - Then, [fn]as they drank their wine at the feast, the king said to Esther, “What is [fn]your petition? For it shall be given to you. And what is [fn]your request? Even to half of the kingdom it shall be done.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:9 -

Then Haman went out that day glad and merry of heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate and that he did not stand up or [fn]tremble before him, Haman was filled with wrath against Mordecai.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:13 - “Yet all of this is worth nothing to me every time I see Mordecai the Jew sitting at the king's gate.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:2 - And it was found written what Mordecai had told concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's eunuchs from those who were doorkeepers, that they had sought to send forth their hand against King Ahasuerus.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:4 - So the king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had entered the outer court of the king's house in order to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows which he had set up for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:5 - And the king's young men said to him, “Behold, Haman is standing in the court.” And the king said, “Let him come in.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:6 - So Haman came in, and the king said to him, “What is to be done for the man whom the king delights to honor?” And Haman said in his heart, “Whom would the king delight to honor more than me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:10 -

Then the king said to Haman, “Take quickly the robes and the horse as you have said, and do so for Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting at the king's gate; do not fall short in anything of all that you have spoken.”

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:2 - And the king said to Esther on the second day also [fn]as they drank their wine at the feast, “What is [fn]your petition, Queen Esther? It shall be given you. And what is [fn]your request? Even to half of the kingdom it shall be done.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:7 - And the king arose in his wrath from [fn]drinking wine and went into the garden of his palace; but Haman stayed to seek for his life from Queen Esther, for he saw that calamity had been determined against him by the king.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:8 - Now the king returned from the garden of his palace into the [fn]place where they were drinking wine. And Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was. So 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 were before the king, said, “Behold indeed, the gallows—which Haman made for Mordecai who spoke good on behalf of the king—are standing at Haman's house fifty cubits high!” And the king said, “Hang him on it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:1 -

On that day King Ahasuerus gave the house of Haman, the adversary of the Jews, to Queen Esther; and Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had told what he was to her.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:5 - Then she said, “If it seems good to the king, and if I have found favor before him and the matter seems proper to the king and I am good in his eyes, let it be written to turn back the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to cause the Jews who are in all the king's provinces to perish.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:6 - “For how can I endure to see the calamity which will befall my people, and how can I endure to see the perishing of my kinsmen?”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:9 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:11 - [fn]In them the king gave the Jews who were in each and every city the right to assemble and to make a stand for their lives, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish the entire military force of any people or province which would act as their adversaries, including little ones and women, and to plunder their spoil,
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:12 - on one day in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, the thirteenth day of the twelfth month (that is, the month Adar).
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:13 - A copy of that which was written down to be given as law in each and every province was revealed 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, hurried and hastened by the king's word, went out, riding on the royal steeds; and the law was given out at the citadel in Susa.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:15 -

Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal robes of [fn]blue and fine white, with a large crown of gold and a garment of fine linen and purple; and the city of Susa cried aloud and was glad.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:1 -

Now in the twelfth month (that is, the month Adar), on the thirteenth [fn]day when the king's word and law had reached the point for them to be done, on the day when the enemies of the Jews hoped to gain power over them, it was turned around so that the Jews themselves gained power over those who hated them.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:2 - The Jews assembled in their cities throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus to send forth their hand against those who sought their calamity; and no one could stand before them, for the dread of them had fallen on all the peoples.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:4 - Indeed, Mordecai was great in the king's house, and the report about him went throughout all the provinces; for the man Mordecai became greater and greater.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:6 - And at the citadel in Susa the Jews killed and caused to perish 500 men,
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:11 -

On that day the number of those who were killed at the citadel in Susa came to the king.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:12 - So the king said to Queen Esther, “The Jews have killed and caused to perish 500 men and the 10 sons of Haman at the citadel in Susa. Now in the rest of the king's provinces, what have they done? So what is [fn]your petition? It shall even be given to you. And what is [fn]your further request? It shall also be done.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:15 - And the Jews who were in Susa assembled also on the fourteenth day of the month Adar and killed 300 men in Susa, but they did not send forth their hand for the plunder.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:16 -

Now the rest of the Jews who were in the king's provinces assembled, to make a stand for their lives and obtain rest for themselves from their enemies, and to kill 75,000 of those who hated them; but they did not send forth their hand for 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 gladness.

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 gladness and feasting and sending portions of food to one another.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:20 -

Then Mordecai wrote down 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 9:22 - because on those days the Jews obtained rest for themselves from their enemies, and it was a month which was turned around for them from sorrow into gladness and from mourning into a [fn]holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and gladness and sending portions of food to one another and gifts to the poor.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 10:2 - And the entire work of his authority and his might, and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai, whom the king had made so great, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 10:3 - For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus and was great among the Jews and pleasing to his many fellow brothers, one who sought the good of his people and one who spoke for the peace of all his seed.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:1 -

There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and that man was blameless, upright, fearing God, and turning away from evil.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:5 - Now it happened when the days of feasting had completed their cycle, that Job would send and set them apart as holy. And he would rise up early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said, “Perhaps my sons have sinned and [fn]cursed God in their hearts.” Thus Job did continually.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:12 - Then Yahweh said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your hand, only do not send forth your hand toward him.” So Satan went out from the presence of Yahweh.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:13 -

Now it happened that on the day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in the house of their brother, the firstborn,

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:15 - and [fn]the Sabeans fell upon them and took them. They also struck down the young men with the edge of the sword, and [fn]I alone have escaped to tell you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:17 - While this one was still speaking, another also came and said, “The Chaldeans set up three companies and made a raid on the camels and took them and struck down the young men with the edge of the sword, and I alone have escaped to tell you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:22 -

Through all this Job did not sin, nor did he give offense to God.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:1 -

Again it was the day that the sons of God came to stand before Yahweh, and Satan also came among them to stand himself before Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:9 -

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

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:10 - But he said to her, “You speak as one of the wickedly foolish women speaks. Shall we indeed accept good from God and not accept calamity?” In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:3 -

“Let the day perish on which I was to be born,

And the night which said, ‘A man is conceived.'

“Why did I not die from the womb,

[fn]From six distresses He will deliver you,

“In famine He will redeem you from death,

And in war from hands with swords.

“Can something tasteless be eaten without salt,

“Indeed I will not hold back my mouth;

I will speak in the distress of my spirit;

I will muse on the bitterness of my soul.

Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:14 -

Then You frighten me with dreams

And terrify me by visions,

[fn]Will You never turn Your gaze away from me,

His glory is great through Your [fn]salvation,

Splendor and majesty You bestow upon him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 21:9 -

You will make them as a fiery oven in the time of your [fn]anger;

Yahweh will swallow them up in His wrath,

For You will make them turn their back;

You will [fn]aim with Your bowstrings at their faces.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 21:13 -

Be exalted, O Yahweh, in Your strength;

We will sing and praise Your might.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 22:3 -

Yet You are holy,

[fn]Enthroned upon the praises of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 22:7 -

All who see me mock me;

They [fn]smack their lip, they wag their head, saying,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 22:14 -

I am poured out like water,

And all my bones are out of joint;

My heart is like wax;

It is melted within [fn]me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 22:22 -

I will surely recount Your name to my brothers;

In the midst of the assembly I will praise You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 22:24 -

For He has not despised and He has not abhorred the affliction of the afflicted;

And He has not hidden His face from him;

But when he cried to Him for help, He heard.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 22:25 -

Of You is my praise in the great assembly;

I shall pay my vows before those who fear Him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 23:4 -

Even though I walk through the [fn]valley of the shadow of death,

I fear no [fn]evil, for You are with me;

Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;

You [fn]have anointed my head with oil;

My cup overflows.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 23:6 -

Give justice to me, O Yahweh, for I have walked in my integrity,

And I have trusted in Yahweh; I will not waver.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 26:3 -

For Your lovingkindness is before my eyes,

And I have walked in Your [fn]truth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 26:6 -

I shall wash my hands in innocence,

So I will go around Your altar, O Yahweh,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 26:10 -

In whose hands is a wicked scheme,

And whose right hand is full of bribes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 26:11 -

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

Redeem me, and be gracious to me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 26:12 -

My foot stands on level ground;

In the congregations I shall bless Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 27:2 -

When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh,

Though a host encamp against me,

My heart will not fear;

Though war arise against me,

In this I trust.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 27:4 -

One thing I have asked from Yahweh, that I shall seek:

That I may dwell in the house of Yahweh all the days of my life,

To behold the [fn]beauty of Yahweh

And to inquire in His temple.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 27:5 -

For in the day of calamity He will conceal me in His shelter;

In the secret place of His tent He will hide me;

He will lift me up on a rock.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 27:6 -

Do not hide Your face from me,

Do not turn Your slave away in anger;

You have been my help;

Do not abandon me and do not forsake me,

O God of my salvation!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 27:11 -

Instruct me in Your way, O Yahweh,

And lead me in a level path

Because of [fn]my foes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 27:13 -

[fn]I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of Yahweh

In the land of the living.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 28:2 -

Hear the voice of my supplications when I cry to You for help,

When I lift up my hands toward [fn]Your holy sanctuary.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 28:3 -

Do not drag me away with the wicked

And with workers of iniquity,

Who speak peace with their neighbors,

While evil is in their hearts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 29:2 -

Ascribe to Yahweh the glory of His name;

Worship Yahweh in the splendor of holiness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 29:4 -

The voice of Yahweh is powerful,

The voice of Yahweh is full of splendor.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 29:9 -

The voice of Yahweh makes the deer to calve

And strips the forests bare;

And in His temple everything says, “Glory!”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 29:11 -

[fn]Yahweh will give strength to His people;

[fn]Yahweh will bless His people with peace.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 30:5 -

For His anger is but for a moment,

His favor is for a lifetime;

Weeping may last for the night,

But a shout of joy comes in the morning.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 30:6 -

Now as for me, I said in my prosperity,

“I will never be shaken.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 30:7 -

Let me never be ashamed;

In Your righteousness protect me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:8 -

And You have not given me over into the hand of the enemy;

You have set my feet in a large place.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:9 -

Be gracious to me, O Yahweh, for I am in distress;

My eye is wasted away from grief, my soul and [fn]my body also.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:10 -

For my life is worn down with sorrow

And my years with sighing;

My strength fails because of my iniquity,

And my bones waste away.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:13 -

For I have heard [fn]the bad report of many,

Terror is on every side;

While they took counsel together against me,

They schemed to take my life.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:15 -

My times are in Your hand;

Deliver me from the hand of my enemies and from those who pursue me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:16 -

Make Your face to shine upon Your slave;

Save me in Your lovingkindness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:18 -

Let the lying lips be mute,

Which speak arrogantly against the righteous

With lofty pride and contempt.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:20 -

You hide them in the secret place of Your presence from the conspiracies of man;

You keep them secretly in a [fn]shelter from the strife of tongues.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:21 -

Blessed be Yahweh,

For He has made marvelous His lovingkindness to me in a besieged city.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 31:22 -

As for me, I said in my alarm,

“I am cut off from before Your eyes”;

Nevertheless, You heard the voice of my supplications

When I cried to You for help.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 32:2 -

How blessed is the man whose iniquity Yahweh will not take into account,

And in whose spirit there is no deceit!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 32:4 -

For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me;

My [fn]vitality was drained away as with the heat of summer. [fn]Selah.

Therefore, let every holy one pray to You [fn]at a time when You may be found;

Surely in a flood of great waters they will not reach him.

I will give you insight and teach you in the way which you should go;

I will counsel you with My eye upon you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 32:9 -

Do not be as the horse or as the mule which have no understanding,

Whose harness are bit and bridle to control them,

Sing for joy in Yahweh, O righteous ones;

Praise is becoming to the upright.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:2 -

Give thanks to Yahweh with the lyre;

Sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings.

Sing to Him a new song;

Play skillfully with a loud shout.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:4 -

For the word of Yahweh is upright,

And all His work is done in faithfulness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:7 -

He gathers the waters of the sea [fn]as a heap;

He lays up the deeps in storehouses.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:16 -

The king is not saved by a mighty army;

A warrior is not delivered by great strength.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:17 -

A horse is a false hope for salvation;

Nor does it provide escape to anyone by its great strength.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:19 -

To deliver their soul from death

And to keep them alive in famine.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 33:21 -

For our heart is glad in Him,

Beth

My soul will make its boast in Yahweh;

The humble will hear it and rejoice.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:8 -

Let destruction, which he does not know, come upon him,

And let the net, which he hid, catch him;

Let him fall into it in destruction.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:13 -

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

I humbled my soul with fasting,

And my prayer kept returning to my bosom.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:18 -

I will give You thanks in the great assembly;

I will praise You among a mighty people.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 35:25 -

Do not let them say in their heart, “Aha, our desire!”

Do not let them say, “We have swallowed him up!”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 36:1 -

For the choir director. Of the servant of Yahweh, of David.

[fn]Transgression declares to the [fn]ungodly within [fn]his heart;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 36:5 -

Your lovingkindness, O Yahweh, is in the heavens,

Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 36:7 -

In Your light we see light.

Aleph

Do not fret because of evildoers,

Be not envious toward doers of unrighteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:7 -

Be still in Yahweh and wait [fn]patiently for Him;

Do not fret because of him who prospers in his way,

Because of the man who carries out schemes of wickedness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:19 -

They will not be ashamed in the time of evil,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 37:39 -

Tav

But the salvation of the righteous is from Yahweh;

He is their strength in time of distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:3 -

There is no soundness in my flesh because of Your indignation;

There is no health in my bones because of my sin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:7 -

For my loins are filled with burning,

And there is no soundness in my flesh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:14 -

And I am like a man who does not hear,

And in whose mouth are no reproofs.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 38:16 -

Who, when my foot stumbles, magnify themselves against me.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 39:1 -

For the choir director. For [fn]Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

While the wicked are in my presence.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 39:3 -

My heart was hot within me,

While I meditated the fire was burning;

Then I spoke with my tongue:

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 39:6 -

“Surely every man walks about as [fn]a shadow;

Surely they make an uproar in vain;

He piles up riches and does not know who will gather them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 39:11 -

“With reproofs You chasten a man for iniquity;

You consume as a moth what is precious to him;

Surely every man is vanity. Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 40:7 -

In the scroll of the book it is [fn]written of me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 40:8 -

“I desire to do Your will, O my God;

Your law is within my inner being.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 40:9 -

I proclaim good news of righteousness in the great assembly;

Behold, I do not restrain my lips,

O Yahweh, You know.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 40:10 -

I do not conceal Your righteousness within my heart;

I speak of Your faithfulness and Your salvation;

I do not hide Your lovingkindness and Your truth from the great assembly.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 41:1 -

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

How blessed is he who considers the [fn]poor;

Yahweh will provide him escape in a day of [fn]calamity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 41:2 -

Yahweh will keep him and keep him alive,

And he shall be blessed upon the earth;

And do not give him over to the desire of his enemies.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 41:3 -

Yahweh will sustain him upon his sickbed;

In his illness, You [fn]restore him to health.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 41:11 -

By this I know that You delight in me,

Because my enemy makes no shout in triumph over me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 42:3 -

My tears have been my food day and night,

While they say to me all day long, “Where is your God?”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 42:4 -

These things I remember and I pour out my soul within me.

For I used to go along with the throng and [fn]lead them in procession to the house of God,

With the sound of a shout of joy and thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 42:9 -

I say to God my rock, “Why have You forgotten me?

Why do I go mourning [fn]because of the oppression of the enemy?”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 42:10 -

As a shattering of my bones, my adversaries reproach me,

While they say to me all day long, “Where is your God?”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 43:2 -

For You are the God of my strength; why have You rejected me?

Why do I go mourning [fn]because of the oppression of the enemy?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 43:4 -

Then I will go to the altar of God,

To God [fn]my exceeding joy;

And upon the lyre I shall praise You, O God, my God.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:1 -

For the choir director. Of the sons of Korah. A [fn]Maskil.

O God, we have heard with our ears,

Our fathers have recounted to us

The work that You did in their days,

In the days of old.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:3 -

For by their own sword they did not possess the land,

And their own arm did not save them,

But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence,

For You favored them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:5 -

Through You we will push back our adversaries;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:11 -

You give us as sheep [fn]to be eaten

And have scattered us among the nations.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:12 -

You sell Your people [fn]for no amount,

And You have not [fn]profited from their price.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:14 -

You make us a byword among the nations,

A [fn]laughingstock among the peoples.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:17 -

All this has come upon us, but we have not forgotten You,

And we have not dealt falsely with Your covenant.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:19 -

Yet You have crushed us in a place of jackals

And covered us with the shadow of death.

You are fairer than the sons of men;

Grace is poured [fn]upon Your lips;

Therefore God has blessed You forever.

I will incline my ear to a proverb;

I will [fn]express my riddle on the harp.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 49:5 -

Why should I fear in days of evil,

When the iniquity of my [fn]supplanters surrounds me,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 49:12 -

But man in his honor will not endure;

He is like the animals that [fn]perish.

[fn]My companion has put forth his hands against those who were at peace with him;

He has [fn]violated his covenant.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:1 -

For the choir director. According to [fn]Jonath Elem Rehokim. A [fn]Mikhtam of David. [fn]When the Philistines seized him in Gath.

Be gracious to me, O God, for man has [fn]trampled upon me;

All day long, an attacker oppresses me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:4 -

In God, whose word I praise,

In God I trust;

I shall not be afraid.

What can mere [fn]man do to me?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:7 -

On account of their wickedness, will they have an escape?

In anger, bring down the peoples, O God!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:8 -

You have taken account of my wanderings;

Put my tears in Your bottle.

Are they not in Your book?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:9 -

Then my enemies will turn back in the day when I call;

This I know, [fn]that God is for me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:12 -

Your vows are binding upon me, O God;

I will [fn]fulfill thank offerings to You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:13 -

[fn]For You have delivered my soul from death,

Indeed my feet from stumbling,

So that I may walk before God

In the light of the [fn]living.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 57:1 -

For the choir director. [fn]Al-tashheth. Of David. A [fn]Mikhtam. [fn]When he fled from Saul in the cave.

Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me,

For my soul takes refuge in You;

And in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge

Until destruction passes by.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 57:9 -

I will give thanks to You, O Lord, among the peoples;

I will sing praises to You among the [fn]nations.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 58:2 -

No, in heart you work unrighteousness;

On earth you [fn]prepare a path for the violence of your hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 58:6 -

O God, shatter their teeth in their mouth;

Break out the fangs of the young lions, O Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 58:9 -

Before your pots can feel the fire of thorns

He will sweep them away with a whirlwind, the living and the burning alike.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 58:10 -

The righteous will be glad when he beholds the vengeance;

He will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 58:11 -

And men will say, “Surely there is a [fn]reward for the righteous;

Surely there is a God who judges [fn]on earth!”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:7 -

Behold, they pour forth speech with their mouth;

Swords are in their lips,

For, they say, “Who hears?”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:10 -

[fn]My God in His lovingkindness will approach me;

God will let me look triumphantly upon [fn]my foes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:11 -

Do not slay them, or my people will forget;

Make them wander about by Your power, and bring them down,

O Lord, our shield.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:12 -

[fn]On account of the sin of their mouth and the word of their lips,

Let them even be caught in their pride,

And on account of curses and [fn]lies which they utter.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:13 -

[fn]Destroy them in wrath, [fn]destroy them that they may be no more;

That men may know that God [fn]rules in Jacob

To the ends of the earth. Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:16 -

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

And I shall joyfully sing of Your lovingkindness in the morning,

For You have been my stronghold

And a refuge in the day of my distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 60:6 -

God has spoken in His [fn]holiness:

“I will exult, I will portion out Shechem and measure out the valley of Succoth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 60:10 -

Have You Yourself, O God, not rejected us?

And will You, O God, not go forth with our armies?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 60:12 -

[fn]Through God we shall do valiantly,

And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 61:1 -

For the choir director. On a stringed instrument. Of David.

Hear my cry of lamentation, O God;

Give heed to my prayer.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 61:2 -

From the end of the earth I call to You when my heart is faint;

Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 61:4 -

Let me sojourn in Your tent forever;

Let me take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. [fn]Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 62:4 -

Surely they have counseled to thrust him down from his high position;

They find pleasure in falsehood;

They bless with [fn]their mouth,

But inwardly they curse. [fn]Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 62:9 -

Surely [fn]men of low degree are merely vanity and [fn]men of rank are a lie;

In the balances they go up;

They are together lighter than a breath of vanity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:1 -

A Psalm of David. [fn]When he was in the wilderness of Judah.

O God, You are my God; I shall seek You [fn]earnestly;

My soul thirsts for You, my flesh [fn]yearns for You,

In a dry and weary land without water.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:2 -

Thus I have beheld You in the sanctuary,

To see Your power and Your glory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:4 -

Thus I will bless You as long as I live;

I will lift up my hands in Your name.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:6 -

When I remember You on my bed,

I meditate on You in the night watches,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:7 -

For You have been my help,

And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:11 -

But the king will be glad in God;

Everyone who swears by Him will boast,

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

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 64:1 -

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

Hear my voice, O God, in my [fn]complaint;

Guard my life from dread of the enemy.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 64:4 -

To shoot [fn]from places of hiding at the blameless;

Suddenly they shoot at him, and do not fear.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 65:1 -

For the choir director. A Psalm of David. A Song.

To You, there will be silence and praise in Zion, O God,

And to You the vow will be paid.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 65:4 -

That he would dwell in Your courts.

We will be satisfied with the goodness of Your house,

Your holy temple.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 65:5 -

By [fn]fearsome deeds You answer us in righteousness, O God of our salvation,

You who are the trust of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest [fn]sea;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 65:6 -

Who establishes the mountains by His strength,

Being girded with might;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 65:10 -

You water its furrows abundantly,

You smooth its ridges,

You soften it with showers,

You bless its growth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 66:3 -

Say to God, “How [fn]fearsome are Your works!

Because of the abundance of Your strength Your enemies will [fn]cower before You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 66:5 -

Come and see the works of God,

Who is fearsome in His deeds toward the sons of men.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 66:6 -

He turned the sea into dry land;

They passed through the river on foot;

There let us be glad in Him!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 66:7 -

He rules by His might forever;

His eyes keep watch on the nations;

Let not the rebellious exalt themselves. Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 66:13 -

I shall come into Your house with burnt offerings;

I shall pay You my vows,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 66:14 -

Which my lips uttered

And my mouth spoke when I was in distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 66:18 -

If I [fn]see wickedness in my heart,

The Lord [fn]will not [fn]hear;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 67:1 -

For the choir director. With stringed instruments. A Psalm. A Song.

God be gracious to us and bless us,

And cause His face to shine [fn]upon us— [fn]Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 67:2 -

That Your way may be known on the earth,

Your salvation among all nations.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 67:4 -

Let the nations be glad and sing for joy;

For You will judge the peoples with uprightness

And lead the nations on the earth. Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:3 -

But let the righteous be glad; let them exult before God;

And let them rejoice with gladness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:5 -

A father of the fatherless and a judge [fn]for the widows,

Is God in His holy habitation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:6 -

God causes the lonely to inhabit a home;

He leads out the prisoners into prosperity,

Only the rebellious dwell in a parched land.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:7 -

O God, when You went forth before Your people,

When You marched through the wasteland, [fn]Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:10 -

Your creatures inhabited it;

You established it in Your goodness for the poor, O God.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:13 -

If you men lie down among the [fn]sheepfolds,

You all would be like the wings of a dove covered with silver,

And its pinions with glistening gold.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:14 -

When the Almighty dispersed the kings [fn]there,

It was snowing in Zalmon.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:16 -

Why do you look with envy, O mountains with many peaks,

At the mountain which God has prized for His habitation?

Surely Yahweh will dwell there forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:17 -

The chariots of God are [fn]myriads, thousands upon thousands;

[fn]The Lord is among them as at Sinai, in holiness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:18 -

You have ascended on high, You have led captive Your captives;

You have received gifts among men,

Even among the rebellious also, that Yah—God—may dwell there.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:21 -

Surely God will crush the head of His enemies,

The hairy [fn]skull of him who goes on in his guilty deeds.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:22 -

The Lord [fn]said, “I will bring them back from Bashan.

I will bring them back from the depths of the sea;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:23 -

That [fn]your foot may crush them in blood,

The tongue of your dogs may have its portion from your enemies.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:24 -

They have seen Your [fn]procession, O God,

The [fn]procession of my God, my King, [fn]into the sanctuary.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:25 -

The singers went on, the musicians after them,

[fn]In the midst of the maidens beating tambourines.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:26 -

Bless God in the congregations,

Yahweh, the fountain of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:27 -

There is Benjamin, the [fn]youngest, [fn]having dominion over them,

The princes of Judah in their throng,

The princes of Zebulun, the princes of Naphtali.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:30 -

Rebuke the beast [fn]in the reeds,

The herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples,

Trampling under foot the pieces of silver;

He has cast out the peoples who delight in war.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:33 -

To Him who rides upon the [fn]highest heavens, which are from ancient times;

Behold, He gives forth His voice, a voice that is strong.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:34 -

Ascribe strength to God;

His majesty is over Israel

And His strength is in the [fn]skies.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:35 -

[fn]O God, You are awesome from Your [fn]sanctuary.

The God of Israel Himself gives strength and might to the people.

Blessed be God!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:10 -

When I wept in my soul with fasting,

It became my reproach.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:12 -

Those who dwell at the gate moan about me,

And I am the drunkards' songs.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:13 -

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

O God, in the abundance of Your lovingkindness,

Answer me with the truth of Your salvation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:25 -

May their [fn]camp be desolate;

May none dwell in their tents.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:27 -

Add iniquity to their iniquity,

And may they not come into Your righteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:30 -

I will praise the name of God with song

And magnify Him with thanksgiving.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:34 -

Let heaven and earth praise Him,

The seas and everything that moves in them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:36 -

The seed of His slaves will inherit it,

And those who love His name will dwell in it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 71:2 -

In Your righteousness deliver me and protect me;

Incline Your ear to me and save me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 71:6 -

[fn]By You I have been sustained from my birth;

You are He who took me from my mother's womb;

My praise is continually [fn]of You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 71:9 -

Do not cast me off in the time of old age;

Do not forsake me when my strength fails.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 71:16 -

I will come with the mighty deeds of Lord Yahweh;

I will bring to remembrance Your righteousness, Yours alone.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 71:22 -

I will also praise You with [fn]a harp,

Even Your [fn]truth, O my God;

To You I will sing praises with the lyre,

O Holy One of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 72:2 -

[fn]May [fn]he render judgment to Your people with righteousness

And Your [fn]afflicted with justice.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 72:3 -

Let the mountains lift up [fn]peace to the people,

And the hills, in righteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 72:7 -

[fn]May the righteous flourish in his days,

And abundance of peace until the moon is no more.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 72:16 -

May there be abundance of grain in the earth on top of the mountains;

May its fruit wave like the cedars of Lebanon;

And may those from the city blossom like vegetation of the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 72:17 -

May his name endure forever;

May his name [fn]increase [fn]as long as the sun shines;

Let all nations [fn]be blessed in him;

Let all nations call him blessed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:4 -

For there are no pains in their death,

And their [fn]body is fat.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:5 -

They are not [fn]in trouble as other [fn]men,

And they are not stricken along with the rest of mankind.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:8 -

They scoff and [fn]wickedly speak of oppression;

They speak from on high.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:11 -

They say, “How does God know?

And is there knowledge with the Most High?”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:13 -

Surely in vain I have [fn]kept my heart pure

And washed my hands in innocence;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:18 -

Surely You set them in slippery places;

You cause them to fall to [fn]destruction.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:20 -

Like a dream when one awakes,

O Lord, when aroused, You will despise their [fn]form.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:24 -

With Your counsel You will lead me,

And afterward take me [fn]in glory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:25 -

Whom have I in heaven but You?

And [fn]besides You, I desire nothing on earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:28 -

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

I have set Lord Yahweh as my refuge,

That I may recount all Your works.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:2 -

Remember Your congregation, which You have purchased of old,

Which You have redeemed to be the tribe of Your inheritance;

And this Mount Zion, where You have dwelt.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:3 -

Lift up Your steps toward the perpetual ruins;

The enemy has damaged everything within the sanctuary.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:4 -

Your adversaries have roared in the midst of Your meeting place;

They have set up their own signs for signs.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:6 -

And now its carved work altogether

They smash with hatchet and [fn]hammers.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:7 -

They have set Your sanctuary on fire;

By bringing it to the ground, they have defiled the dwelling place of Your name.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:8 -

They said in their heart, “Let us [fn]completely [fn]subdue them.”

They have burned all the meeting places of God in the land.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:12 -

Yet God is my King from of old,

Who works deeds of [fn]salvation in the midst of the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:13 -

You divided the sea by Your strength;

You broke the heads of the sea monsters [fn]in the waters.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 75:3 -

“The earth and all who dwell in it [fn]melt;

It is I who have firmly set its pillars. [fn]Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 75:8 -

For a cup is in the hand of Yahweh, and the wine foams;

It is full of His mixture, and He pours from this;

Surely all the wicked of the earth must drain and drink down its dregs.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 76:1 -

For the choir director. With stringed instruments. A Psalm of Asaph. A Song.

God is known in Judah;

His name is great in Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 76:2 -

So His [fn]tabernacle is in Salem;

His dwelling place is in Zion.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 76:9 -

When God arose to judgment,

To save all the humble of the earth. Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:2 -

In the day of my distress I sought the Lord;

In the night my hand was stretched out [fn]without weariness;

My soul refused to be comforted.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:9 -

Has God forgotten to be gracious,

Or has He in anger shut up His compassion? Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:12 -

I will meditate on all Your work

And muse on Your deeds.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:13 -

O God, Your way is holy;

What god is great like God?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:14 -

You are the God who works wonders;

You have made known Your strength among the peoples.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:15 -

You have by Your arm redeemed Your people,

The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:18 -

The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind;

The lightnings lit up the world;

The earth trembled and shook.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:19 -

Your way was in the sea

And Your paths in the mighty waters,

But Your footprints were not known.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 77:20 -

You led Your people like a flock

By the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:2 -

I will open my mouth in a parable;

I will pour forth dark sayings of old,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:5 -

For He established a testimony in Jacob

And set a law in Israel,

Which He commanded our fathers

That they should [fn]teach them to their children,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:9 -

The sons of Ephraim [fn]were archers equipped with bows,

Yet they turned back in the day of battle.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:10 -

They did not keep the covenant of God

And refused to walk in His law;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:12 -

He did wonders before their fathers

In the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:14 -

Then He led them with the cloud by day

And all the night with a light of fire.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:15 -

He was splitting the rocks in the wilderness

And so gave them abundant drink like the ocean depths.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:17 -

Yet they still continued to sin against Him,

To rebel against the Most High in the desert.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:18 -

And in their heart they put God to the test

By asking for food according to their desire.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:19 -

Then they spoke against God;

They said, “Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:21 -

Therefore Yahweh heard and [fn]was full of wrath;

And a fire was kindled against Jacob

And anger also mounted against Israel,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:22 -

Because they did not believe in God

And did not trust in His salvation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:26 -

He led forth the east wind in the heavens

And by His strength He guided the south wind.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:30 -

[fn]Before they had satisfied their desire,

While their food was in their mouths,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:31 -

The anger of God rose against them

And killed [fn]some of their stoutest ones,

And [fn]subdued the choice men of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:32 -

In spite of all this they still sinned

And did not believe in His wondrous deeds.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:33 -

So He brought their days to an end in [fn]futility

And their years in sudden terror.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:36 -

But they deceived Him with their mouth

And lied to Him with their tongue.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:37 -

For their heart was not prepared to remain with Him,

Nor were they faithful in His covenant.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:40 -

How often they rebelled against Him in the wilderness

And grieved Him in the wasteland!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:43 -

When He performed His signs in Egypt

And His miracles in the field of Zoan,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:47 -

He killed their vines with hailstones

And their sycamore trees with frost.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:51 -

So He struck all the firstborn in Egypt,

The first of their vigor in the tents of Ham.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:52 -

But He led forth His own people like sheep

And guided them in the wilderness like a flock;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:53 -

He led them safely, so that they did not fear;

But the sea covered their enemies.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:55 -

He also drove out the nations before them

And apportioned them for an inheritance by measurement,

And made the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:58 -

For they provoked Him with their high places

And aroused His jealousy with their graven images.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:60 -

So that He abandoned the dwelling place at Shiloh,

The tent [fn]which He caused to dwell among men,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:64 -

[fn]His priests fell by the sword,

And [fn]His widows could not weep.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:69 -

And He built His sanctuary like the heights,

Like the earth which He has founded forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:72 -

So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart,

And led them with his skillful hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 79:10 -

Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?”

Let it be known among the nations before our eyes:

Vengeance for the blood of Your slaves which has been poured out.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 80:5 -

You have fed them with the bread of tears,

And You have made them to drink tears in [fn]large measure.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 81:3 -

Blow the trumpet at the new moon,

At the full moon, on our feast day.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 81:5 -

He established it for a testimony in Joseph

When he went forth over the land of Egypt.

I heard a language that I did not know:

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 81:6 -

“I [fn]relieved his shoulder of the burden,

His hands were freed from the [fn]basket.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 81:7 -

“You called in distress and I rescued you;

I answered you in the hiding place of thunder;

I tested you at the waters of Meribah. [fn]Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 81:9 -

“Let there be no strange god among you;

And you shall not worship a foreign god.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 81:12 -

“So I released [fn]them over to the stubbornness of their heart,

That they would walk in their own devices.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 81:14 -

“I would quickly subdue their enemies

And I would turn My hand against their adversaries.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 82:1 -

A Psalm of Asaph.

God takes His stand in the congregation of [fn]God;

He judges in the midst of [fn]gods.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 82:5 -

They do not know and do not understand;

They walk about in darkness;

All the foundations of the earth are shaken.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 82:8 -

Arise, O God, judge the earth!

For it is You who will inherit all the nations.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 83:5 -

For they have [fn]conspired together with one heart;

Against You they cut a covenant:

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 83:9 -

Do to them as to Midian,

As to Sisera, and Jabin at the river of Kishon,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 83:10 -

Who were destroyed at En-dor,

Who were as dung for the ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 83:15 -

So pursue them with Your tempest

And dismay them with Your storm.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 84:4 -

How blessed are those who dwell in Your house!

They are ever praising You. [fn]Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 84:5 -

How blessed is the man whose strength is in You,

In [fn]whose heart are the highways to Zion!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 84:6 -

Passing through the valley of [fn]Baca they make it a [fn]spring;

The early rain also wraps it up with blessings.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 84:7 -

They go from strength to strength,

[fn]Each one of them appears before God in Zion.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 84:10 -

For better is a day in Your courts than a thousand elsewhere.

I would choose to stand at the threshold of the house of my God

Than dwell in the tents of wickedness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 84:11 -

For Yahweh God is a sun and shield;

Yahweh gives grace and glory;

No good thing does He withhold [fn]from those who walk blamelessly.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 85:8 -

Let me hear what the God, Yahweh, will speak;

For He will speak peace to His people, [fn]to His holy ones;

But let them not turn back to [fn]folly.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 85:9 -

Surely His salvation is near to those who [fn]fear Him,

That glory may dwell in our land.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 86:7 -

In the day of my distress I shall call upon You,

For You will answer me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 86:8 -

There is no one like You among the gods, O Lord,

Nor are there any works like Yours.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 86:11 -

Teach me Your way, O Yahweh;

I will walk in Your truth;

Unite my heart to fear Your name.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 86:12 -

I will give thanks to You, O Lord my God, with all my heart,

And will glorify Your name forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 87:1 -

Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. A Song.

His foundation is in the holy mountains.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 87:5 -

But of Zion it shall be said, “This one and that one were born in her”;

And the Most High Himself will establish her.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 87:6 -

Yahweh will count when He registers the peoples,

“This one was born there.” Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 87:7 -

And singers, just like the dancers, will all say,

“All my springs are in you.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 88:1 -

A Song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. For the choir director. According to Mahalath Leannoth. A [fn]Maskil of Heman [fn]the Ezrahite.

O Yahweh, the God of my salvation,

I have cried out by day and throughout the night before You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 88:4 -

I am counted among those who go down to the pit;

I am like a man without strength,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 88:5 -

Released among the dead,

Like the slain who lie in the grave,

Whom You remember no more,

And they are cut off from Your hand.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 88:6 -

You have put me in the pit far below,

In dark places, in the depths.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 88:11 -

Will Your lovingkindness be recounted in the grave,

Your faithfulness in [fn]Abaddon?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 88:12 -

Will Your wonders be known in the darkness?

And Your righteousness in the land of forgetfulness?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 88:15 -

I have been afflicted and about to breathe my last from my youth on;

I bear Your terrors; I am [fn]overcome.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:1 -

A [fn]Maskil of [fn]Ethan [fn]the Ezrahite.

I will sing of the lovingkindnesses of Yahweh forever;

From generation to generation I will make known Your faithfulness with my mouth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:2 -

For I have said, “Lovingkindness will be built up forever;

In the heavens You will establish Your faithfulness.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:5 -

The heavens will praise Your wonders, O Yahweh;

Your faithfulness also in the assembly of the holy ones.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:6 -

For who in the sky is comparable to Yahweh?

Who among the [fn]sons of the mighty is like Yahweh,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:7 -

A God greatly dreaded in the council of the holy ones,

And [fn]fearsome above all those who are around Him?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:10 -

You Yourself crushed [fn]Rahab like one who is slain;

You scattered Your enemies with Your strong arm.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:12 -

The north and the south, You have created them;

Tabor and Hermon sing with joy at Your name.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:15 -

How blessed are the people who know the loud shout of joy!

O Yahweh, they walk in the light of Your face.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:16 -

In Your name they rejoice all the day,

And by Your righteousness they are exalted.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:17 -

For You are the beauty of their strength,

And by Your favor [fn]our horn is exalted.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:19 -

Formerly You spoke in vision to Your [fn]holy [fn]ones,

And said, “I have bestowed help to a mighty one;

I have exalted one chosen from the people.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:20 -

“I have found David My [fn]servant;

With My holy oil I have anointed him,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:22 -

“The enemy will not [fn]deceive him,

Nor the [fn]son of unrighteousness afflict him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:24 -

“My faithfulness and My lovingkindness will be with him,

And in My name his horn will be exalted.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:25 -

“I shall also set his hand on the sea

And his right hand on the rivers.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:32 -

Then I will punish their transgression with the rod

And their iniquity with striking.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:33 -

“But I will not break off My lovingkindness from him,

Nor deal falsely in My faithfulness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:35 -

[fn]Once I have sworn by My holiness;

I will not lie to David.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:37 -

“It shall be established forever like the moon,

And the witness in the sky is faithful.” [fn]Selah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:43 -

You also turn back the edge of his sword

And have not made him arise in battle.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:49 -

Where are Your former lovingkindnesses, O Lord,

Which You swore to David in Your faithfulness?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 89:50 -

Remember, O Lord, the reproach of Your [fn]slaves;

[fn]How I bear in my bosom the reproach of all the many peoples,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:1 -

A Prayer of [fn]Moses, the man of God.

Lord, You have been our [fn]dwelling place from generation to generation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:4 -

For a thousand years in Your sight

Are like yesterday when it passes by,

[fn]Or as a watch in the night.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:7 -

For we have been consumed by Your anger

And by Your wrath we have been [fn]dismayed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:9 -

For all our days have declined in Your fury;

We have finished our years like a [fn]sigh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:10 -

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

Or if due to might, eighty years,

Yet their pride is but labor and wickedness;

For soon it is gone and we fly away.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:12 -

[fn]So teach us to number our days,

That we may [fn]present to You a heart of wisdom.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 90:14 -

O satisfy us in the morning with Your lovingkindness,

That we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 91:1 -

He who abides in the shelter of the Most High

Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 91:4 -

He will cover you with His pinions,

And under His wings you will take refuge;

His truth is a large shield and bulwark.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 91:6 -

Of pestilence that moves in darkness,

Or of destruction that devastates at noon.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 91:11 -

For He will command His angels concerning you,

To guard you in all your ways.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 91:15 -

“He will call upon Me, and I will answer him;

I will be with him in his [fn]distress;

I will rescue him and honor him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:3 -

[fn]With the ten-stringed lute and with the harp,

[fn]With resounding music [fn]upon the lyre.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:4 -

For You, O Yahweh, have made me glad by [fn]what You have done,

I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:7 -

That when the wicked flourished like grass

And all the workers of iniquity blossomed,

It was only that they might be destroyed forevermore.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:10 -

But You have raised up my horn like that of the wild ox;

I have [fn]been anointed with fresh oil.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:11 -

And my eye has looked exultantly upon [fn]my foes,

My ears hear of the evildoers who rise up against me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:12 -

The righteous man will [fn]flourish like the palm tree,

He will grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:13 -

Planted in the house of Yahweh,

They will flourish in the courts of our God.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:14 -

They will still [fn]yield fruit in old age;

They shall be [fn]rich and fresh,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 92:15 -

To [fn]declare that Yahweh is upright;

He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 93:4 -

More than the voices of many waters,

Than the mighty breakers of the sea,

Yahweh on high is mighty.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 94:8 -

Discern, you senseless among the people;

And when will you have insight, you fools?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 94:19 -

When my anxious thoughts [fn]multiply within me,

Your consolations delight my soul.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 95:2 -

Let us come before His presence with [fn]thanksgiving,

Let us make a loud shout to Him with songs of praise.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 95:4 -

In whose hand are the depths of the earth,

The peaks of the mountains are His also.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 95:8 -

Do not harden your hearts, as at [fn]Meribah,

As in the day of [fn]Massah in the wilderness,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 95:11 -

“Therefore I swore in My anger,

They shall never enter into My rest.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 96:3 -

Recount His glory among the nations,

His wondrous deeds among all the peoples.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 96:6 -

Splendor and majesty are before Him,

Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 96:9 -

Worship Yahweh in the splendor of holiness;

Tremble before Him, all the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 96:10 -

Say among the nations, “Yahweh [fn]reigns;

Indeed, the world is established, it will not be shaken;

He will render justice to the peoples with [fn]equity.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 96:12 -

Let the field exult, and all that is in it.

Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 96:13 -

Before Yahweh, for He is coming,

For He is coming to judge the earth.

He will judge the world in righteousness

And the peoples in His faithfulness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 97:7 -

Let all those be ashamed who serve graven images,

Who boast of idols;

[fn]Worship Him, all you [fn]gods!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 98:5 -

Sing praises to Yahweh with the lyre,

With the lyre and the sound of singing.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 98:6 -

With trumpets and the sound of the horn

Make a loud shout before King Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 98:7 -

Let the sea roar, as well as its fullness,

The world and those who dwell in it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 98:9 -

Before Yahweh, for He is coming to judge the earth;

He will judge the world with righteousness

And the peoples with [fn]equity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 99:2 -

Yahweh is great in Zion,

And He is exalted above all the peoples.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 99:4 -

[fn]The strength of the King loves [fn]justice;

You have established [fn]equity;

You have done [fn]justice and righteousness in Jacob.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 99:6 -

Moses and Aaron were among His priests,

And Samuel was among those who called on His name;

They would call upon Yahweh and He would answer them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 99:7 -

He would speak to them in the pillar of cloud;

They kept His testimonies

And the statute that He gave them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 100:2 -

Serve Yahweh with gladness;

Come before Him with joyful songs.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 100:4 -

Enter His gates with [fn]thanksgiving

And His courts with praise.

Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 101:2 -

I will [fn]consider the way of the blameless.

When will You come to me?

I will walk within my house in the [fn]integrity of my heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 101:6 -

My eyes shall be upon the faithful of the land, that they may abide with me;

He who walks in the way of the blameless is the one who will minister to me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 101:7 -

He who practices deceit shall not dwell within my house;

He who speaks lies shall not be established before my eyes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:2 -

Do not hide Your face from me in the day of my distress;

Incline Your ear to me;

In the day when I call answer me quickly.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:6 -

I resemble a pelican of the wilderness;

I have become like an owl of the waste places.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:16 -

For Yahweh has built up Zion;

He has appeared in His glory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:21 -

To recount the name of Yahweh in Zion

And His praise in Jerusalem,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:22 -

When the peoples are gathered together,

And the kingdoms, to serve Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:23 -

He has afflicted my strength in the way;

He has shortened my days.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 102:24 -

I say, “O my God, do not take me away in the [fn]midst of my days,

Your years are from generation to all generations.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 103:4 -

Who redeems your life from the pit,

Who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 103:5 -

Who satisfies your [fn]years with good things,

So that your youth is renewed like the eagle.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 103:16 -

When the wind has passed over it, it is no more,

And its place acknowledges it no longer.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 103:19 -

Yahweh has established His throne in the heavens,

And His kingdom rules over [fn]all.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 103:22 -

Bless Yahweh, all you works of His,

In all places of His rule;

Bless Yahweh, O my soul!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:3 -

[fn]He lays the beams of His upper chambers in the waters;

[fn]He sets up the clouds to be His chariot;

[fn]He walks upon the wings of the wind;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:10 -

[fn]He sends forth springs in the valleys;

They flow between the mountains;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:15 -

And wine which makes man's heart glad,

To make his face glisten more than oil,

And [fn]food which sustains man's heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:20 -

You appoint darkness so that it becomes night,

In which all the beasts of the forest creep about.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:22 -

When the sun rises they gather together

And lie down in their dens.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:24 -

How numerous are Your works, O Yahweh!

[fn]In wisdom You have made them all;

The earth is full of Your [fn]possessions.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:33 -

[fn]I will sing to Yahweh throughout my life;

[fn]I will sing praise to my God [fn]while I have my being.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:1 -

Oh give thanks to Yahweh, call upon His name;

Make known His acts among the peoples.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:3 -

Boast in His holy name;

Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh be glad.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:7 -

He is Yahweh our God;

His judgments are in all the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:12 -

When they were only a few men in number,

Of little account, and sojourners in it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:15 -

“Do not touch My anointed ones,

And to My prophets do no evil.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:18 -

They afflicted his feet with fetters,

[fn]He himself was laid in irons;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:23 -

Then Israel came to Egypt;

And Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:25 -

He turned their heart to hate His people,

To deal craftily with His slaves.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:27 -

They set forth the words of His signs among them,

And miracles in the land of Ham.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:30 -

Their land swarmed with frogs

Even in the chambers of their kings.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:31 -

He spoke, and there came a swarm of flies

And gnats in all their territory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:32 -

He [fn]gave them hail for rain,

And flaming fire in their land.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:35 -

And [fn]they ate up all vegetation in their land,

And [fn]they ate up the fruit of their ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:36 -

He also struck down all the firstborn in their land,

The first of all their vigor.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:37 -

Then He brought them out with silver and gold,

And there was none among His tribes who stumbled.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:38 -

Egypt was glad when they went out,

For the dread of them had fallen upon them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:41 -

He opened the [fn]rock and water flowed out;

[fn]It ran in the dry places like a river.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 105:43 -

And He brought His people out with joy,

His chosen ones with a shout of joy.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:3 -

How blessed are those who keep [fn]justice,

[fn]And he who does righteousness at all times!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:4 -

Remember me, O Yahweh, in Your favor [fn]toward Your people;

Visit me with Your salvation,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:5 -

That I may see the goodness of Your chosen ones,

That I may rejoice in the gladness of Your nation,

That I may boast with Your [fn]inheritance.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:7 -

Our fathers in Egypt did not consider Your wondrous deeds;

They did not remember Your abundant lovingkindnesses,

But they rebelled by the sea, at the [fn]Red Sea.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:9 -

Thus He rebuked the [fn]Red Sea and it dried up,

And He led them through the deeps, as through the wilderness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:12 -

Then they believed His words;

They sang His praise.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:14 -

But craved intensely in the wilderness,

And put God to the test in the wasteland.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:16 -

Then they became envious of Moses in the camp,

And of Aaron, the holy one of Yahweh,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:18 -

And a fire burned up in their company;

The flame consumed the wicked.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:19 -

They made a calf in Horeb

And worshiped a molten image.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:20 -

Thus they exchanged their glory

For the image of an ox that eats grass.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:21 -

They forgot God their Savior,

Who had done great things in Egypt,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:22 -

Wondrous deeds in the land of Ham

And awesome things by the [fn]Red Sea.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:23 -

Therefore He said that He would destroy them,

Had not Moses His chosen one stood in the breach before Him,

To turn away His wrath from [fn]eradicating them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:25 -

But grumbled in their tents;

They did not listen to the voice of Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:26 -

So He [fn]swore to them

To make them fall in the wilderness,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:27 -

And to make their seed fall among the nations

And to scatter them in the lands.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:29 -

Thus they provoked Him to anger with their actions,

And the plague broke out among them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:33 -

Because they were rebellious against [fn]His Spirit,

He spoke rashly with his lips.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:35 -

But they mingled with the nations

And learned their works,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:38 -

And they shed innocent blood,

The blood of their sons and their daughters,

Whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan;

And the land was polluted with the blood.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:39 -

Thus they became unclean in their works,

And played the harlot in their actions.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:43 -

Many times He would deliver them;

But they were rebellious in their counsel,

And so they sank down in their iniquity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:44 -

Nevertheless He looked upon their distress

When He heard their cry of lamentation;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:47 -

Save us, O Yahweh our God,

And gather us from among the nations,

To give thanks to Your holy name

And revel in Your praise.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:4 -

They wandered in the wilderness along the way of the wasteland;

They did not find an inhabited city.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:5 -

Hungry [fn]and thirsty,

Their soul fainted within them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:6 -

Then they cried out to Yahweh in their trouble;

He delivered them out of their distresses.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:10 -

There were those who inhabited darkness and the shadow of death,

Prisoners in affliction and irons,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:12 -

So He subdued their heart with labor;

They stumbled and there was none to help.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:13 -

Then they cried out to Yahweh in their trouble;

He saved them out of their distresses.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:19 -

Then they cried out to Yahweh in their trouble;

He saved them out of their distresses.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:22 -

Let them also offer sacrifices of thanksgiving,

And recount His works with joyful singing.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:23 -

Those who go down to the sea in ships,

Who do business on many waters;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:24 -

They have seen the works of Yahweh,

And His wondrous deeds in the deep.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:26 -

They went up to the heavens, they went down to the depths;

Their soul melted away in the [fn]calamity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:28 -

Then they cried to Yahweh in their trouble,

And He brought them out of their distresses.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:32 -

Let them exalt Him also in the assembly of the people,

And praise Him at the seat of the elders.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:34 -

A fruitful land into a salt waste,

Because of the evil of those who inhabited it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:40 -

He pours contempt upon nobles

And makes them wander in a pathless void.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 108:1 -

A Song. A Psalm of David.

My heart is set, O God;

I will sing, I will sing praises, even with my glory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 108:3 -

I will give thanks to You, O Yahweh, among the peoples,

And I will sing praises to You among the nations.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 108:7 -

God has spoken in His [fn]holiness:

“I will exult, I will portion out Shechem

And measure out the valley of Succoth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 108:11 -

Have You, O God, not rejected us?

And will You, O God, not go forth with our armies?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 108:13 -

[fn]Through God we shall do valiantly,

And it is He who will tread down our adversaries.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:7 -

When he is judged, let him come forth a wicked man,

And let his prayer become sin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:13 -

Let those who follow him be [fn]cut off;

In a following generation let their name be blotted out.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:18 -

But he clothed himself with cursing as his garment,

And it came into his inward parts like water

And like oil into his bones.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:23 -

I am passing like a shadow when it is stretched out;

I am shaken off like the locust.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:30 -

With my mouth I will give thanks abundantly to Yahweh;

And in the midst of many I will praise Him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 110:2 -

Yahweh will stretch forth Your strong scepter from Zion, saying,

“Have dominion in the midst of Your enemies.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 110:3 -

Your people [fn]will offer themselves freely in the day of Your [fn]power;

In the splendor of holiness, from the womb of the dawn,

The dew of Your youthfulness will be Yours.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 110:5 -

The Lord is at Your right hand;

He [fn]will crush kings in the day of His anger.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 110:6 -

He will render justice among the nations,

He [fn]will fill them with corpses,

He [fn]will crush the [fn]head that is over the wide earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 110:7 -

He will drink from the brook by the wayside;

Therefore He will lift up His head.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 111:1 -

Aleph

[fn]Praise Yah!

I will give thanks to Yahweh with all my heart,

Beth

In the council of the upright and in the congregation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 111:8 -

Samekh

They are upheld forever and ever;

They are done in [fn]truth and uprightness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 112:1 -

Aleph

[fn]Praise Yah!

How blessed is the man who [fn]fears Yahweh,

Beth

Who greatly delights in His commandments.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 112:2 -

Gimel

His seed will be mighty [fn]on earth;

Daleth

The generation of the upright will be blessed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 112:3 -

He

Wealth and riches are in his house,

Vav

And his righteousness stands forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 112:4 -

Zayin

Light arises in the darkness for the upright;

Heth

He is gracious and compassionate and righteous.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 112:5 -

Teth

It is well with the man who is gracious and lends;

Yodh

Who sustains his [fn]works with justice.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 112:9 -

Pe

[fn]He has given freely to the needy,

Tsadhe

His righteousness stands forever;

Qoph

His horn will be raised in glory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 113:5 -

Who is like Yahweh our God,

The One who sits on high,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 113:6 -

The One who [fn]brings Himself low to see

The things in heaven and on the earth?

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 113:9 -

He makes the barren woman of the house sit

As a glad mother of children.

[fn]Praise Yah!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 114:1 -

When Israel went out from Egypt,

The house of Jacob from a people of strange language,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 115:3 -

But our God is in the heavens;

He does whatever He pleases.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 115:7 -

As for their hands, they do not feel;

As for their feet, they do not walk;

They do not make a sound with their throat.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 116:2 -

Because He has inclined His ear to me,

So I shall call upon Him in all my days.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 116:9 -

I shall walk before Yahweh

In the [fn]land of the living.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 116:11 -

I said in my alarm,

“All men are liars.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 116:19 -

In the courts of the house of Yahweh,

In the midst of you, O Jerusalem.

[fn]Praise Yah!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:5 -

From my distress I called upon Yah;

Yah answered me and set me in a large place.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:12 -

They surrounded me like bees;

They were extinguished as a fire of thorns;

In the name of Yahweh I will surely cut them off.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:15 -

The sound of joyful shouting and salvation is in the tents of the righteous;

The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:19 -

Open to me the gates of righteousness;

I shall enter through them, I shall give thanks to Yah.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:20 -

This is the gate of Yahweh;

The righteous will enter through it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:23 -

This is from Yahweh;

It is marvelous in our eyes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:24 -

This is the day which Yahweh has made;

Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:26 -

Blessed is the one who comes in the name of Yahweh;

We have blessed you from the house of Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:27 -

Yahweh is God, and He has given us light;

Bind the festival sacrifice with cords [fn]to the horns of the altar.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:1 -

Aleph

How blessed are those whose way is [fn]blameless,

Who walk in the law of Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:2 -

How blessed are those who observe His testimonies,

They seek Him with all their heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:3 -

They also do not work unrighteousness;

They walk in His ways.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:6 -

Then I shall not be ashamed

When I look [fn]upon all Your commandments.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:7 -

I shall give thanks to You with uprightness of heart,

When I learn Your righteous judgments.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:9 -

Beth

How can a young man keep his way pure?

By keeping it according to Your word.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:10 -

With all my heart I have sought You;

Do not let me stray from Your commandments.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:11 -

Your word I have treasured in my heart,

That I may not sin against You.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:13 -

With my lips I have recounted

All the judgments of Your mouth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:14 -

I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies,

[fn]As much as in all riches.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:15 -

I will muse upon Your precepts

And look upon Your ways.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:16 -

I shall [fn]delight in Your statutes;

I shall not forget Your word.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:19 -

I am a sojourner in the earth;

Do not hide Your commandments from me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:20 -

My soul is crushed [fn]with longing

For Your judgments at all times.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:23 -

Even though princes sit and talk against me,

Your slave muses on Your statutes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:27 -

Make me understand the way of Your precepts,

So I will muse on Your wondrous deeds.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:28 -

My soul [fn]weeps because of grief;

Raise me up according to Your word.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:34 -

Cause me to understand, that I may observe Your law

And keep it with all my heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:35 -

Cause me to walk in the path of Your commandments,

For I delight in it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:37 -

Cause my eyes to turn away from looking at worthlessness,

And revive me in Your ways.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:40 -

Behold, I long for Your precepts;

Revive me in Your righteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:45 -

And I will walk in a wide place,

For I seek Your precepts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:46 -

I will also speak of Your testimonies before kings

And I shall not be ashamed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:47 -

I shall [fn]delight in Your commandments,

Which I love.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:48 -

And I shall lift up my hands to Your commandments,

Which I love;

And I will muse on Your statutes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:50 -

This is my comfort in my affliction,

That Your word has [fn]revived me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:54 -

Your statutes have become my songs

In the house of my sojourning.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:55 -

I remember in the night Your name, O Yahweh,

So I keep Your law.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:58 -

I have sought to please Your face with all my heart;

Be gracious to me according to Your [fn]word.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:68 -

You are good and do good;

Teach me Your statutes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:69 -

The arrogant have smeared me with lying;

With all my heart I will observe Your precepts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:78 -

May the arrogant be ashamed, for they wrong me with lying;

But I shall muse on Your precepts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:80 -

May my heart be [fn]blameless in Your statutes,

So that I will not be ashamed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:83 -

For I am like a wineskin in the smoke,

But I do not forget Your statutes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:87 -

They almost made an end of me on the earth,

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

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:89 -

Lamedh

Forever, O Yahweh,

Your word stands firm in heaven.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:92 -

If Your law had not been my delight,

Then I would have perished in my affliction.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:93 -

I will never forget Your precepts,

For by them You have [fn]revived me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:109 -

My soul is continually [fn]in my hand,

Yet I do not forget Your law.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:117 -

Uphold me that I may be saved,

That I may have regard for Your statutes continually.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:145 -

Qoph

I called with all my heart; answer me, O Yahweh!

I will observe Your statutes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:147 -

I [fn]eagerly greet the dawn and cry for help;

I [fn]wait for Your words.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:159 -

See how I love Your precepts;

O Yahweh, revive me according to Your lovingkindness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 120:1 -

A Song of [fn]Ascents.

In my distress I called to Yahweh,

And He answered me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 122:2 -

Our feet are standing

Within your gates, O Jerusalem,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 122:7 -

“May peace be within your walls,

And tranquility within your palaces.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 123:1 -

A Song of Ascents.

To You I lift up my eyes,

The One enthroned in the heavens!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 124:1 -

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

“Had it not been Yahweh who was on our side,”

Let Israel now say,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 124:2 -

“Had it not been Yahweh who was on our side

When men rose up against us,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 124:3 -

Then they would have swallowed us alive,

When their anger was kindled against us;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 124:8 -

Our help is in the name of Yahweh,

Who made heaven and earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 125:3 -

For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest upon the [fn]land of the righteous,

So that the righteous would not send forth their hands in unrighteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 126:1 -

A Song of Ascents.

When Yahweh [fn]returned [fn]the captive ones of Zion,

We were like those who dream.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 126:2 -

Then our mouth was filled with laughter

And our tongue with shouts of joy;

Then they said among the nations,

“Yahweh has done great things for them.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 126:4 -

Restore our captivity, O Yahweh,

As the [fn]streams in the Negev.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 126:5 -

Those who sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 126:6 -

He who goes to and fro weeping, carrying his bag of seed,

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

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 127:4 -

Like arrows in the hand of a warrior,

So are the children of one's youth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 127:5 -

How blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them;

They will not be ashamed

When they speak with enemies in the gate.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 128:1 -

A Song of Ascents.

How blessed is everyone who fears Yahweh,

Who walks in His ways.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 128:3 -

Your wife shall be like a fruitful vine

In the innermost parts of your house,

Your children like olive plants

All around your table.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 129:8 -

And those who pass by will not say,

“The blessing of Yahweh be upon you;

We bless you in the name of Yahweh.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 131:1 -

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

O Yahweh, my heart is not exalted, and my eyes are not raised high;

And I do not [fn]involve myself in great matters,

Or in matters too marvelous for me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 132:6 -

Behold, we heard of it in Ephrathah,

We found it in the fields of [fn]Jaar.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 134:1 -

A Song of Ascents.

Behold, bless Yahweh, all you slaves of Yahweh,

Who stand in the house of Yahweh by night!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 134:2 -

Lift up your hands to the sanctuary

And bless Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 135:2 -

You who stand in the house of Yahweh,

In the courts of the house of our God!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 135:6 -

Whatever Yahweh pleases, He does,

In heaven and on earth, in the seas and in all deeps.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 135:9 -

[fn]He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt,

Amongst Pharaoh and all his slaves.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 135:17 -

They have ears, but they do not hear,

Surely, there is not any breath in their mouths.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 136:5 -

To Him who made the heavens with [fn]skill,

For His lovingkindness endures forever;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 136:12 -

With a strong hand and an outstretched arm,

For His lovingkindness endures forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 136:16 -

To Him who led His people through the wilderness,

For His lovingkindness endures forever;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 136:23 -

Who remembered us in our low estate,

For His lovingkindness endures forever,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 137:1 -

By the rivers of Babylon,

There we sat and also wept,

When we remembered Zion.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 137:2 -

Upon the [fn]willows in the midst of it

We hung our lyres.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 137:6 -

May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth

If I do not remember you,

If I do not [fn]exalt Jerusalem

Above my chief joy.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 137:7 -

Remember, O Yahweh, against the sons of Edom

The day of Jerusalem,

Who said, “Tear it down! Tear it down

To its very foundation.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 138:1 -

Of David.

I will give You thanks with all my heart;

I will sing praises to You before the gods.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 138:3 -

On the day I called, You answered me;

You made me bold with strength in my soul.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 138:5 -

And they will sing of the ways of Yahweh,

For great is the glory of Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 138:7 -

Though I walk in the midst of [fn]distress, You will [fn]revive me;

You will stretch forth Your hand against the wrath of my enemies,

And Your right hand will save me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 139:4 -

[fn]Even before there is a word on my tongue,

Behold, O Yahweh, You know it all.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 139:11 -

If I say, “Surely the darkness will bruise me,

And the light around me will be night,”

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 139:15 -

My [fn]frame was not hidden from You,

When I was made in secret,

And intricately woven in the depths of the earth;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 139:16 -

Your eyes have seen my unshaped substance;

And in Your book all of them were written

The days that were formed for me,

When as yet there was not one of them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 139:24 -

And see if there be any [fn]hurtful way in me,

And lead me in the everlasting way.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 140:2 -

Who think up evil things in their hearts;

They continually stir up wars.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 140:7 -

“O Yahweh, O Lord, the strength of my salvation,

You have covered my head in the day of [fn]battle.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 140:10 -

“May burning coals be shaken out upon them;

May He cause them to fall into the fire,

Into [fn]bottomless pits from which they can never rise.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 141:1 -

A Psalm of David.

O Yahweh, I call upon You; hasten to me!

Give ear to my voice when I call to You!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 141:4 -

Do not incline my heart to any evil thing,

To practice deeds in wickedness

With men who are workers of iniquity;

And do not let me eat of their delicacies.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 141:5 -

Let the righteous smite me in lovingkindness and reprove me;

It is oil upon the head;

Let not my head refuse it,

[fn]For still my prayer is [fn]against their evil deeds.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 141:10 -

Let the wicked fall into their own nets,

As for myself—meanwhile, I am passing by.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 142:1 -

A [fn]Maskil of David. When he was [fn]in the cave. A Prayer.

With my voice to Yahweh, I cry aloud;

With my voice to Yahweh, I make supplication.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 142:3 -

When my spirit [fn]was faint within me,

You knew my path.

In the way where I walk

They have hidden a trap for me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 142:5 -

I cried out to You, O Yahweh;

I said, “You are my refuge,

My portion in the land of the living.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:1 -

A Psalm of David.

O Yahweh, hear my prayer,

Give ear to my supplications!

Answer me in Your faithfulness, in Your righteousness!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:3 -

For the enemy has pursued my soul;

He has crushed my life to the ground;

He has made me inhabit dark places, like those who have long been dead.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:4 -

Therefore my spirit was faint within me;

My heart was [fn]appalled within me.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:5 -

I remember the days of old;

I meditate on all You have done;

I muse on the work of Your hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:8 -

Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning;

For I trust in You;

Cause me to know the way in which I should walk;

For to You I lift up my soul.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:10 -

Teach me to do Your will,

For You are my God;

Let Your good Spirit lead me on level [fn]ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:11 -

For the sake of Your name, O Yahweh, revive me.

In Your righteousness bring my soul out of distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:12 -

And in Your lovingkindness, [fn]cut off my enemies

And cause all those who assail my soul to perish,

For I am Your slave.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 144:9 -

O God, I will sing a new song to You;

Upon a harp of ten strings I will sing praises to You,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 144:12 -

That our sons would be as grown-up plants in their youth,

And our daughters as corner pillars [fn]fashioned as for a palace;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 144:13 -

That our granaries would be full, furnishing every kind of produce,

And our flocks would bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our fields outside;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 144:14 -

That our cattle would [fn]bear

Without [fn]mishap and without [fn]loss,

And without outcry in our streets!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 145:13 -

Mem

Your kingdom is [fn]an everlasting kingdom,

And Your dominion endures from generation to every generation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 145:15 -

Ayin

The eyes of all wait on You,

And You give them their food in due time.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 145:17 -

Tsadhe

Yahweh is righteous in all His ways

And holy in all His works.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 145:18 -

Qoph

Yahweh is near to all who call upon Him,

To all who call upon Him in truth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 146:2 -

I will praise Yahweh throughout my life;

I will sing praises to my God while I have my being.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 146:4 -

His spirit departs, he returns to [fn]the earth;

In that very day his plans perish.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 146:6 -

Who made heaven and earth,

The sea and all that is in them;

Who keeps truth forever;

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 147:7 -

Sing to Yahweh with thanksgiving;

Sing praises to our God on the lyre.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 147:8 -

He is the One who covers the heavens with clouds,

The One who provides rain for the earth,

The One who makes grass to sprout on the mountains,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 147:10 -

He does not delight in the might of the horse;

He does not take pleasure in the legs of a man.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 147:11 -

Yahweh is pleased with those who fear Him,

Those who wait for His lovingkindness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 147:13 -

For He strengthened the bars of your gates;

He blessed your sons within you.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 148:1 -

[fn]Praise Yah!

Praise Yahweh from the heavens;

Praise Him in the heights!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:1 -

[fn]Praise Yah!

Sing to Yahweh a new song,

His praise in the assembly of the holy ones.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:3 -

Let them praise His name with dancing;

With tambourine and lyre let them sing praises to Him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:4 -

For Yahweh takes pleasure in His people;

He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:5 -

Let the holy ones exult in glory;

Let them sing for joy on their beds.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:6 -

Let the exaltations of God be in their throats,

And a two-edged sword in their hand,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:7 -

To execute vengeance on the nations

And punishments on the peoples,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:8 -

To bind their kings with chains

And their honored men with fetters of iron,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:9 -

To execute on them the judgment written;

This is the majesty of all His holy ones.

[fn]Praise Yah!

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 150:1 -

[fn]Praise Yah!

Praise God in His sanctuary;

Praise Him in His mighty [fn]expanse.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 150:3 -

Praise Him with trumpet blast;

Praise Him with harp and lyre.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 150:4 -

Praise Him with tambourine and dancing;

Praise Him with stringed instruments and pipe.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 150:5 -

Praise Him with resounding cymbals;

Praise Him with clashing cymbals.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:1 -

The proverbs of Solomon the son of David, king of Israel:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:4 -

To give prudence to the [fn]simple,

To the youth knowledge and discretion;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:5 -

Let the wise man hear and increase in learning,

And a man of understanding will acquire guidance,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:6 -

To understand a proverb and an enigma,

The words of the wise and their riddles.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:14 -

Cast in your lot [fn]with us,

We shall all have one purse,”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:15 -

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

Withhold your feet from their pathway,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:20 -

Wisdom shouts in the street,

She gives forth her voice in the square;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:13 -

From those who forsake the paths of uprightness

To walk in the ways of darkness;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:19 -

All who go to her will not return,

And they will not reach the paths of life.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:21 -

For the upright will dwell in the land

And the blameless will remain in it;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:5 -

Trust in Yahweh with all your heart

And do not lean on your own understanding.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:6 -

In all your ways [fn]acknowledge Him,

And He will make your paths straight.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:16 -

Length of days is in her right hand;

In her left hand are riches and glory.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:17 -

Her ways are pleasant ways

And all her pathways are peace.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:19 -

Yahweh by wisdom founded the earth,

By discernment He established the heavens.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:20 -

By His knowledge the deeps were split up

And the skies drip with dew.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:23 -

Then you will walk in your way securely

And your foot will not stumble.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:32 -

For the devious one is an abomination to Yahweh;

But His secret council is with the upright.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:33 -

The curse of Yahweh is on the house of the wicked one,

But He blesses the abode of the righteous.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:3 -

When I was a son to my father,

Tender and the only son before my mother,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:15 -

Avoid it, do not pass by it;

Stray from it and pass on.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:21 -

Do not let them deviate from your eyes;

Keep them in the midst of your heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 4:27 -

Do not turn to the right nor to the left;

Turn your foot from evil.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:14 -

“I was almost in utter ruin

In the midst of the assembly and congregation.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:19 -

As a loving hind and a graceful doe,

Let her breasts satisfy you at all times;

Be [fn]intoxicated always with her love.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:8 -

Prepares her food in the summer

And gathers her provision in the harvest.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:14 -

Who with perversity in his heart continually devises evil,

Who [fn]spreads contentions.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:27 -

Can a man [fn]take fire in his bosom

And his clothes not be burned?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:34 -

For jealousy [fn]enrages a man,

And he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:8 -

Passing through the street near her corner;

And he strides along the way to her house,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:9 -

In the twilight, in the evening of that day,

In the [fn]middle of the night, and in the thick darkness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:11 -

She is boisterous and rebellious,

Her feet do not dwell at home;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:12 -

Stepping in the streets, stepping in the squares,

And near every corner she lies in wait.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:19 -

“For [fn]my husband is not at home,

He has gone on a journey far away;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 7:20 -

He took a bag of silver in his hand,

On the day of the full moon he will come home.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:3 -

Beside the gates, at the opening to the city,

At the entrance of the doors, she makes a shout:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:8 -

“All the words of my mouth are in righteousness;

There is nothing twisted or crooked in them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:20 -

“I walk in the path of righteousness,

In the midst of the pathways of justice,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:23 -

“From everlasting I was [fn]installed,

From the beginning, from the earliest times of the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:30 -

Then I was beside Him, as a master workman;

And I was a daily delight,

[fn]Rejoicing always before Him,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:31 -

[fn]Rejoicing in the world, His earth,

My delight is in the sons of men.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:6 -

[fn]Forsake your simplicity and live,

And step into the way of understanding.”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:12 -

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself,

And if you scoff, you alone will bear it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:14 -

She sits at the doorway of her house,

On a seat by the high places of the city,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:15 -

To call to those who pass by that way,

Who are making their paths straight:

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:18 -

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

That those she called are in the depths of Sheol.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:5 -

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

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

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:11 -

The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,

But the mouth of the wicked covers up violence.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:21 -

The lips of the righteous feed many,

But ignorant fools die for lack of a heart of wisdom.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:22 -

It is the blessing of Yahweh that makes rich,

And He adds no pain with it.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:23 -

Doing wickedness is like laughing to a fool,

And so is wisdom to a man of discernment.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 10:24 -

What the wicked dreads will come upon him,

But the desire of the righteous will be granted.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 11:9 -

With his mouth the godless man corrupts his neighbor,

But through knowledge the righteous will be rescued.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 11:10 -

When it goes well with the righteous, the city exults,

And when the wicked perish, there is joyful shouting.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 11:13 -

He who goes about as a slanderer reveals secrets,

But he who is faithful in spirit conceals a matter.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 11:14 -

Where there is no guidance the people fall,

But in abundance of counselors there is salvation.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 11:20 -

Those with a crooked heart are an abomination to Yahweh,

But those of a blameless way are His delight.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 11:22 -

As a ring of gold in a swine's snout

So is a beautiful woman who turns away from [fn]discretion.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 12:4 -

[fn]An excellent wife is the crown of her husband,

But she who causes shame is like rottenness in his bones.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 12:9 -

Better is he who is lightly esteemed and has a servant

Than he who honors himself and lacks bread.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 12:11 -

He who cultivates his land will be satisfied with bread,

But he who pursues empty things lacks a heart of wisdom.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 12:12 -

The wicked man desires a stronghold of evil men,

But the root of the righteous gives fruit.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 12:13 -

The snare of an evil man is in the transgression of his lips,

But the righteous man will come out from distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 12:20 -

Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,

But counselors of peace have gladness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 12:28 -

In the path of righteousness is life,

And in its pathway there is no death.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 13:1 -

A wise son accepts his father's discipline,

But a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 13:4 -

The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing,

But the soul of the diligent is enriched.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 13:7 -

There is one who pretends to be rich, but has nothing;

Another [fn]pretends to be poor, but has great wealth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 13:9 -

The light of the righteous is glad,

But the lamp of the wicked goes out.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 13:15 -

Good insight gives grace,

But the way of the treacherous is [fn]unrelenting.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 13:23 -

Abundant food is in the fallow ground of the poor,

But [fn]it is swept away by injustice.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 14:8 -

The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way,

But the folly of fools is deceit.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 14:13 -

Even in laughter the heart may be in pain,

And the end of joy may be grief.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 14:23 -

In all painful labor there is profit,

But mere words from the lips lead only to want.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 14:26 -

In the [fn]fear of Yahweh there is strong security,

And [fn]his children will have refuge.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 14:28 -

In a multitude of people is a king's splendor,

But in the dearth of people is a prince's ruin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 14:29 -

He who is slow to anger has great discernment,

But he who is [fn]quick-tempered raises up folly.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 14:32 -

The wicked is thrust down by his own evil,

But the righteous takes refuge even in his death.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 14:33 -

Wisdom rests in the heart of one who has understanding,

But in the midst of fools it is merely made known.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 15:3 -

The eyes of Yahweh are in every place,

Watching the evil and the good.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 15:6 -

The house of the righteous has much treasure,

But in the income of the wicked there is trouble.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 15:13 -

A glad heart makes a face look good,

But [fn]when the heart is pained, the spirit is broken.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 15:22 -

Without consultation, [fn]plans are frustrated,

But with many counselors they [fn]succeed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:2 -

All the ways of a man are pure in his own sight,

But Yahweh weighs the [fn]motives.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:10 -

A divine decision is in the lips of the king;

His mouth should not [fn]err in judgment.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:15 -

In the light of a king's face is life,

And his favor is like a cloud with the [fn]late rain.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:17 -

The highway of the upright is to turn away from evil;

He who guards his way keeps his [fn]soul.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:20 -

He who considers the word will find good,

And how blessed is he who trusts in Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:21 -

The wise in heart will be called understanding,

And sweetness of [fn]lips increases learning.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:26 -

A worker's appetite works for him,

For his mouth urges him on.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:31 -

Gray hair is a crown of beauty;

It is found in the way of righteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 17:1 -

Better is a dry morsel and tranquility with it

Than a house full of [fn]feasting with strife.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 17:2 -

A slave who acts insightfully will rule over a son who acts shamefully,

And will share in the inheritance among brothers.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 17:3 -

The refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold,

But Yahweh tests hearts.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 17:17 -

A friend loves at all times,

And a brother is born for adversity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 17:23 -

A wicked man receives a bribe from the bosom

To thrust aside the paths of justice.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 18:1 -

He who separates himself seeks his own desire,

He breaks out in dispute against all sound wisdom.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 18:4 -

The words of a man's mouth are deep waters;

[fn]The fountain of wisdom is a flowing brook.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 18:5 -

To show partiality to the wicked is not good,

Nor to thrust aside the righteous in judgment.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 18:9 -

He also who is slack in his work

Is brother to him who destroys.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 18:17 -

The first [fn]to plead his case seems right,

Until [fn]another comes and examines him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 18:18 -

The cast lot puts an end to contentions

And [fn]decides between the mighty ones.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 18:21 -

Death and life are in the [fn]power of the tongue,

And those who love it will eat its fruit.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:21 -

Many [fn]thoughts are in a man's heart,

But it is the counsel of Yahweh that will stand.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 19:23 -

The [fn]fear of Yahweh leads to life,

So that one may sleep satisfied, not visited by evil.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:4 -

The sluggard does not plow from winter on,

So he [fn]begs during the harvest and has nothing.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:5 -

Counsel in the heart of a man is like deep water,

But a man of discernment draws it out.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:7 -

A righteous man who walks in his integrity

How blessed are his sons after him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:8 -

A king who sits on the throne of justice

[fn]Disperses all evil with his eyes.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:11 -

It is by his deeds that a young man makes himself known

If his conduct is pure and right.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:21 -

An inheritance gained hurriedly at the beginning

In the end will not be blessed.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 20:28 -

Lovingkindness and truth will guard the king,

And he upholds his throne by lovingkindness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:1 -

The king's heart is like channels of water in the hand of Yahweh;

He turns it wherever He pleases.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:9 -

It is better to live in a corner of a roof

Than [fn]in a house shared with a contentious woman.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:12 -

The righteous one considers the house of the wicked,

Turning the wicked to ruin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:16 -

A man who wanders from the way of insight

Will rest in the assembly of the [fn]dead.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:19 -

It is better to live in a desert land

Than with a contentious and vexing woman.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:5 -

Thorns and snares are in the way of the crooked;

He who keeps his soul will be far from them.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:10 -

Drive out the scoffer, and strife will go out,

Even contention and disgrace will cease.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:13 -

The sluggard says, “There is a lion outside;

I will be killed in the streets!”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:22 -

Do not rob the poor because he is poor,

And do not crush the afflicted at the gate;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:29 -

Do you see a man skilled in his work?

He will stand before kings;

He will not stand before obscure men.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:17 -

Do not let your heart be jealous of sinners,

But be zealous in the [fn]fear of Yahweh [fn]always.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:30 -

Those who linger long over wine,

Those who go to search out mixed wine.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:31 -

Do not look on the wine when it glistens red,

When it [fn]sparkles in the cup,

When it goes down smoothly;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 23:34 -

And you will be like one who lies down in the heart of the sea,

Or like one who lies down on the top of a [fn]mast.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:7 -

Wisdom is too exalted for an ignorant fool,

He does not open his mouth in the gate.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:8 -

One who deliberately thinks to do evil,

Men will call a [fn]schemer.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:9 -

The scheming of folly is sin,

And the scoffer is an abomination to men.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:10 -

If you are slack in the day of trouble,

Your strength is in trouble.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:16 -

For a righteous man falls seven times, and rises again,

But the wicked will stumble in [fn]calamity.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:17 -

When your enemy falls, do not be glad,

And when he stumbles, do not let your heart rejoice;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:23 -

These also are sayings of the wise.

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

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:5 -

Take away the wicked before the king,

And his throne will be established in righteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:6 -

Do not promote your majesty in the presence of the king,

And in the place of great men do not stand;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:7 -

For it is better that it be said to you, “Come up here,”

Than for you to be placed lower in the presence of a noble,

Whom your eyes have seen.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:11 -

Like apples of gold in settings of silver

Is a word spoken in [fn]right circumstances.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:13 -

Like the cold of snow in the [fn]time of harvest

Is a faithful envoy to those who send him,

For he refreshes the soul of his masters.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:15 -

When one is slow to anger, a ruler may be persuaded,

And a soft tongue breaks the bone.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:19 -

Like [fn]an aching tooth and a slipping foot

Is trust in a treacherous man in a day of distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:20 -

Like one who takes off a garment on a cold day, or like vinegar on [fn]soda,

Is he who sings songs to [fn]an aching heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 25:24 -

It is better to live in a corner of the roof

Than [fn]in a house shared with a contentious woman.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:1 -

Like snow in summer and like rain in harvest,

So glory is not fitting for a fool.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:8 -

Like [fn]one who binds a stone in a sling,

So is he who gives glory to a fool.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:9 -

Like a thorn which goes up into the hand of a drunkard,

So is a proverb in the mouth of fools.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:13 -

The sluggard says, “There is a fierce lion in the road!

A lion is [fn]among the streets!”

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:15 -

The sluggard buries his hand in the dish;

He is too weary to return it to his mouth.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:16 -

The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes

Than seven men who can respond with a discreet answer.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:20 -

With no wood the fire goes out,

And where there is no whisperer, strife quiets down.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:24 -

He who hates disguises it with his lips,

But he sets up deceit within himself.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:25 -

When he makes his voice gracious, do not believe him,

For there are seven abominations in his heart.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 26:26 -

Though his hatred covers itself with guile,

His evil will be revealed in the assembly.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:7 -

A satisfied soul tramples the honeycomb,

But to a hungry soul any bitter thing is sweet.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:15 -

A constant dripping on a day of steady rain

And a contentious woman are alike;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:22 -

Though you pound an ignorant fool in a mortar with a pestle in the midst of crushed grain,

His [fn]folly will not turn aside from him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 27:25 -

When the grass disappears and the vegetation appears,

And the herbs of the mountains are gathered in,

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:3 -

A poor man who oppresses the lowly

Is a driving rain [fn]which leaves no food.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:5 -

Evil men do not understand justice,

But those who seek Yahweh understand all things.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:6 -

Better is the poor who walks in his integrity

Than he who is crooked[fn]double dealing—though he be rich.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:10 -

He 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 28:12 -

When the righteous exult, there is great honor,

But when the wicked rise, man has to be sought out.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:17 -

A man oppressed with the bloodguilt of life

Will flee until [fn]death; let no one uphold him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:25 -

An [fn]arrogant man stirs up strife,

But he who trusts in Yahweh will [fn]be enriched.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:27 -

He who gives to the poor will never want,

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

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:28 -

When the wicked rise, men hide themselves;

But when they perish, the righteous increase.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:6 -

By transgression an evil man is ensnared,

But the righteous sings with joy and is glad.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:14 -

If a king judges the poor with truth,

His throne will be established forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 29:20 -

Do you behold a man who is hasty in his words?

There is more hope for a fool than for him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:2 -

Surely I am more senseless than any man,

And I do not have the understanding of mankind.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:4 -

Who has ascended into heaven and descended?

Who has gathered the wind in His fists?

Who has wrapped the waters in [fn]His garment?

Who has [fn]established all the ends of the earth?

What is His name? And what is His Son's name?

Surely you know!

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:19 -

The way of an eagle in the sky,

The way of a serpent on a rock,

The way of a ship in the heart of the sea,

And the way of a man with a virgin.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:26 -

The [fn]shephanim are not a mighty people,

Yet they make their houses in the cliff;

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:28 -

The lizard you may grasp with the hands,

Yet it is in kings' palaces.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:31 -

The [fn]strutting rooster, the male goat also,

And a king when his army is with him.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:6 -

Give strong drink to him who is perishing,

And wine to those whose soul is bitter.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:21 -

Lamedh

She is not afraid of the snow for her household,

For all her household are clothed with scarlet.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:23 -

Nun

Her husband is known in the gates,

When he sits with the elders of the land.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:26 -

Pe

She opens her mouth in wisdom,

And the [fn]instruction of lovingkindness is on her tongue.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:31 -

Tav

Give to her from the fruit of her hands,

And let her works praise her in the gates.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:1 -

The words of the [fn]Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:3 -

What advantage does man have in all his labor

In which he labors under the sun?

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:10 -

Is there anything of which one might say,

“See this, it is new”?

Already it has been for ages

Which were before us.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:12 -

I, the Preacher, have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:13 - And I gave my heart to seek and explore by wisdom concerning all that has been done under heaven. It is [fn]a grievous endeavor which God has given to the sons of men with which to occupy themselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:16 -

I spoke within my heart, saying, “Behold, I have magnified and increased wisdom more than all who were over Jerusalem before me; and my heart has seen an abundance of wisdom and knowledge.”

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:18 - Because in much wisdom there is much vexation, and whoever increases knowledge increases pain.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:1 -

I said in my heart, “Come now, I will test you with gladness, so that you shall see good things.” And behold, it too was vanity.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:3 - I explored with my heart how to [fn]stimulate my [fn]body with wine—while my heart was guiding me wisely—and how to seize simpleminded folly, until I could see where is this good for the sons of men in what they do under heaven the few days of their lives.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:5 - I made for myself gardens and parks, and I planted in them all kinds of fruit trees;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:7 - I bought male and female slaves, and I had [fn]homeborn slaves. Also I possessed flocks and herds larger than all who preceded me in Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:9 -

Then I became great and increased more than all who preceded me in Jerusalem. My wisdom also stood by me.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:10 - All that my eyes asked for I did not refuse them. I did not withhold my heart from any gladness, for my heart was glad because of all my labor, and this was my reward for all my labor.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:11 - Thus I turned to all my works which my hands had done and the labor which I had labored to do, and behold, all was [fn]vanity and striving after wind, and there was no advantage under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:14 - The wise man's eyes are in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. And yet I know that the fate of one becomes the fate of all of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:15 - Then I said in my heart, “As is the fate of the fool, so will my fate be also. Why then have I been extremely wise?” So I said in my heart, “This too is vanity.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:19 - And who knows whether he will be a wise man or a man of simpleminded folly? Yet he will have [fn]power over all the fruit of my labor for which I have labored and for which I have acted wisely under the sun. This too is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:21 - When there is a man who has labored with wisdom, knowledge, and skill, then he gives his portion to one who has not labored with them. This too is vanity and a great evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:22 - For what does a man get in all his labor and in the striving of his heart with which he labors under the sun?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:23 - Because all his days his endeavor is painful and vexing; even at night his heart does not lie down. This too is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:24 -

[fn]There is nothing better for a man than to eat and drink and have his soul see good in his labor. This also I have seen that it is from the hand of God.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:9 -

What advantage is there to the worker from that in which he labors?

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:10 - I have seen the endeavor which God has given the sons of men with which to occupy themselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:11 - He has made everything [fn]beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, [fn]yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:12 -

I know that [fn]there is nothing better for them than to be glad and to do good in one's lifetime;

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:13 - moreover, that every man who eats and drinks and sees good in all his labor—it is the gift of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:17 - I said in my heart, “God will judge both the righteous man and the wicked man,” for a time for every [fn]matter and for every work is there.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:18 - I said in my heart concerning the sons of men, “God is testing them in order for them to see that they are but beasts.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:22 - I have seen that nothing is better than that man should be glad in his works, for that is his portion. For who will bring him to see what will occur after him?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:9 -

Two are better than one because they have good wages for their labor.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:14 - For he has come out of prison to become king, even though he was born poor in his kingdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:16 - There is no end to all the people, to all who were before them, and even the ones who will come later will not be glad with him, for this too is vanity and striving after wind.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:1 -

[fn]Guard your steps as you go to the house of God and draw near to listen rather than to offer the sacrifice of fools; for they do not know they are doing evil.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:2 - [fn]Do not be hasty with your mouth or [fn]impulsive in your heart to bring up a matter in the presence of God. For God is in heaven but you are on the earth; therefore let your words be few.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:3 - For the dream comes through abundant endeavor and the voice of a fool through abundant words.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:4 -

When you make a vow to God, do not be late in paying it; for He takes no delight in fools. Pay what you vow!

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:7 - For in many dreams and vanities are many words. Rather, [fn]fear God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:8 -

If you see oppression of the poor and robbery of justice and righteousness in the province, do not be astonished over the [fn]matter; for a lofty one keeps watch over another lofty one, and there are loftier ones over them.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:9 - But the advantage of the land in everything is this—a king committed to a cultivated field.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:10 -

He who loves money will not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves abundance with its produce. This too is [fn]vanity.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:11 - When good things increase, those who consume them increase. So what is the success to their masters except to look on with their eyes?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:14 - And those riches were lost through a bad endeavor; and he became the father of a son, but there was nothing in his hand for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:15 - As he had come naked from his mother's womb, so will he return as he came. He will carry nothing from the fruit of his labor that he can bring in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:17 - Also, all his days he eats in darkness with much vexation, and his sickness and anger.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:18 -

Here is what I have seen to be good, which is [fn]beautiful: to eat, to drink, and to see good in all one's labor in which he labors under the sun during the few days of his life which God has given him; for this is his portion.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:19 - Furthermore, as for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, He has also empowered him to eat from them and to take up his portion and be glad in his labor; this is the gift of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:20 - For he will not remember much the days of his life because God allows [fn]him to occupy himself with the gladness of his heart.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:4 - for that one comes in vanity and goes into darkness; and that one's name is covered in darkness.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:12 - For who knows what is good for a man during his lifetime, during the few days of his vain life? He will make do with them like a shadow. For who can tell a man what will be after him under the sun?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:3 -

Better is vexation than laughter,

For when a face is sad a heart may be merry.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:4 -

The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning,

While the heart of fools is in the house of gladness.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:9 -

Do not be [fn]eager in your spirit to be vexed,

For vexation rests in the bosom of fools.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:10 -

Do not say, “Why is it that the former days were better than these?”

For it is not from wisdom that you ask about this.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:12 -

For wisdom is a shadow of protection as money is a shadow of protection,

And the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the lives of its masters.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:14 -

In the day when there is good be of good cheer,

But in the day when there is evil see

God has made the one as well as the other

So that man will not find out anything that will be after him.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:15 -

I have seen everything during my days of vanity; there is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man who prolongs his life in his evildoing.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:17 - Do not be excessively wicked, and do not be a simpleminded fool. Why should you die before your time?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:18 - It is good that you seize one thing and also not [fn]let go of the other; for the one who fears God comes forth with [fn]both of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:19 -

Wisdom strengthens a wise man more than ten men with power who are in a city.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:20 - Indeed, there is not a righteous man on earth who continually does good and who never sins.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:23 -

I tested all this with wisdom, and I said, “I will be wise,” but it was far from me.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:26 - And I found more bitter than death the woman whose heart is snares and nets, whose hands are chains. One who is good before God will escape from her, but the sinner will be captured by her.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:28 - which my soul still seeks but has not found. I have found one man out of a thousand, but I have not found a woman among all these.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:3 - “Do not be in a hurry to go from his presence. Do not stand in an evil matter, for he will do whatever he pleases.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:8 - There is no man who has power to restrain the wind with the wind, and there is none who has power over the day of death; and there is no discharge in the time of war, and wickedness will not provide escape to its masters.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:9 - All this I have seen and given my heart to every work that has been done under the sun wherein a man has power over another man to his calamity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:10 -

So then, I have seen the wicked buried, those who used to go in and out from the holy place, and they are soon forgotten in the city where they did thus. This too is vanity.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:11 - Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed quickly, therefore the hearts of the sons of men among them are given fully to do evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:13 - But it will not be well for the wicked man, and he will not prolong his days like a shadow, because he does not fear [fn]God openly.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:15 - So I laud gladness, for there is nothing good for a man under the sun except to eat and to drink and to [fn]be merry, and this will join with him in his labor throughout the days of his life which God has given him under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:16 -

When I gave my heart to know wisdom and to see the endeavor which has been done on the earth (even though one never sees sleep with his eyes day or night),

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:1 -

For I have given all this to my heart and explain [fn]it that righteous men, wise men, and their service are in the hand of God. Man does not know whether it will be love or hatred; anything may be before him.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:2 -

It is the same for all. There is one fate for the righteous and for the wicked; for the good, for the clean and for the unclean; for the man who offers a sacrifice and for the one who does not sacrifice. As the good man is, so is the sinner; as the swearer is, so is the one who [fn]is afraid to swear.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:3 - This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that there is one fate for all. Furthermore, the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts throughout their lives. Afterwards they go to the dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:6 - Indeed their love, their hate, and their zeal have already perished, and they will never again have a portion in all that is done under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:7 -

Go then, eat your bread in gladness and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already accepted your works.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:8 - Let your clothes be white all the time, and let not oil be lacking on your head.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:9 - See life with the woman whom you love all the days of your vain life, which He has given to you under the sun—all the days of your vanity; for this is your portion in life and in your labor in which you have labored under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:10 -

Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might; for there is no working or explaining or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol where you are going.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:12 - Moreover, man does not know his time: like fish seized in an evil net and birds seized in a trap, so the sons of men are ensnared at an evil time when it suddenly falls on them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:14 - There was a small city with few men in it, and a great king came to it, surrounded it, and built large siegeworks against it.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:15 - But there was found in it a poor wise man, and he provided a way of escape for the city by his wisdom. Yet no one remembered that poor man.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:17 - The words of the wise heard in restfulness are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:3 - Even when the simpleminded fool walks along the road, his heart lacks wisdom, and he says to all that he is a simpleminded fool.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:6 - [fn]folly is set in many exalted places while rich men sit in humble places.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:8 -

He who digs a pit may fall into it, and a serpent may bite him who breaks through a wall.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:9 - He who quarries stones may be hurt by them, and he who splits logs may be endangered by them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:11 - If the serpent bites [fn]before being charmed, there is no advantage for the charmer.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:16 - Woe to you, O land, whose king is a young man and whose princes [fn]eat in the morning.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:17 - Blessed are you, O land, whose king is of nobility and whose princes eat at the appropriate time—for might and not for drinking.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:18 - Through indolence the beams sag, and through slack hands the house leaks.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:20 - Furthermore, in your bedchamber do not curse a king, and in your sleeping rooms do not curse a rich man, for a bird of the sky will bring the sound and the winged creature will tell the matter.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:1 -

Cast your bread on the surface of the waters, for you will find it [fn]after many days.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:3 - If the clouds are full, they empty the rain upon the earth; and whether a tree falls toward the south or toward the north, wherever the tree falls, there it [fn]lies.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:4 - He who [fn]watches the wind will not sow, and he who looks at the clouds will not reap.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:5 - Just as you do not know [fn]the path of the wind and how bones are formed in the womb of the [fn]pregnant woman, so you do not know the work of God who works all things.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:6 -

Sow your seed in the morning and do not put your hands down in the evening, for you do not know whether [fn]morning or evening sowing will succeed, or whether both of them alike will be good.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:8 - Indeed, if a man should live many years, let him be glad in them all, and let him remember the days of darkness, for they will be many. Everything that is to come will be vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:9 -

Be glad, young man, during your childhood, and let your heart be merry during the days of young manhood. And walk in the ways of your heart and in the sights of your eyes. Yet know that God will bring you to judgment for all these things.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:1 -

Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days happen and the years draw near in which you will say, “I have no delight in them”;

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:3 - in the day that the watchmen of the house tremble, and valiant men bend down, the grinding ones stand idle because they are few, and those who look through [fn]windows grow dark;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:4 - and the doors on the street are shut as the sound of the grinding mill is low, and one will arise at the sound of the bird, and all the daughters of song will [fn]sing softly.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:5 - Furthermore, [fn]men are afraid of a high place and of terrors on the road; the almond tree blooms, the grasshopper drags itself along, and the caperberry is ineffective. For man goes to his eternal home, but the mourners go about in the street.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:14 - For God will bring every work to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:4 -

“Draw me after you and let us run together!

The king has brought me into his chambers.”

Rightly do they love you.”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:6 -

“Do not look at me because I am [fn]swarthy,

For the sun has burned me.

My mother's sons were angry with me;

They made me caretaker of the vineyards,

But I have not taken care of my own vineyard.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:7 -

“Tell me, O you whom my soul loves,

Where do you shepherd your flock,

Where do you make it lie down at noon?

For why should I be like one who [fn]veils herself

Beside the flocks of your companions?”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:8 -

[fn]If you yourself do not know,

Most beautiful among women,

Go forth on the trail of the flock

And pasture your young goats

By the dwellings of the shepherds.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:9 -

“To a mare of mine among the chariots of Pharaoh

I compare you, O my darling.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:12 -

[fn]While the king was at his [fn]banqueting table,

My [fn]perfume gave forth its fragrance.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:14 -

“My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms

In the vineyards of Engedi.”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 2:2 -

[fn]Like a lily among the thorns,

So is my darling among the daughters.”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 2:3 -

[fn]Like an [fn]apple tree among the trees of the forest,

So is my beloved among the sons.

In his shade I had great desire and sat down,

And his fruit was sweet to my [fn]taste.

“Sustain me with raisin cakes,

Refresh me with [fn]apples,

Because I am lovesick.

‘The flowers have appeared in the land;

The time for [fn]pruning has arrived;

And the voice of the turtledove has been heard in our land.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 2:14 -

[fn]O my dove, in the clefts of the [fn]rock,

In the secret place of the steep [fn]pathway,

Let me see your appearance,

Let me hear your voice;

For your voice is sweet,

And your appearance is lovely.”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 2:16 -

[fn]My beloved is mine, and I am his,

He who shepherds his flock among the lilies.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 3:1 -

[fn]On my bed night after night I sought him

Whom my soul loves;

I sought him but did not find him.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 3:2 -

[fn]I must arise now and [fn]go about the city;

In the streets and in the squares

[fn]I must seek him whom my soul loves.'

I sought him but did not find him.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 3:3 -

“The watchmen who go about the city found me,

And I said, ‘Have you seen him whom my soul loves?'

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 3:5 -

Learned in war;

Each man has his sword at his side,

Guarding against the [fn]dreadful things of the night.

King Solomon with the [fn]crown

With which his mother has crowned him

On the day of his wedding,

And on the day of his gladness of heart.”

“Your teeth are like a flock of newly shorn ewes

Which have come up from their washing,

All of which bear twins,

And not one among them has [fn]lost her young.

Twins of a gazelle

Which [fn]feed among the lilies.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 4:7 -

“You are altogether beautiful, my darling,

And there is no blemish in you.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 4:9 -

“You have made my heart beat faster, my sister, my bride;

You have made my heart beat faster with a single glance of your eyes,

With a single strand of your necklace.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:6 -

“I opened to my beloved,

But my beloved had turned away and passed by!

My soul went out to him as he spoke.

I searched for him, but I did not find him;

I called him, but he did not answer me.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:7 -

“The watchmen who go about in the city found me,

They struck me and wounded me;

The guardsmen of the walls took away my shawl from me.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:8 -

“I call you to solemnly swear, O daughters of Jerusalem,

If you find my beloved,

What will you tell him?

Tell him that I am sick with love.”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:9 -

[fn]What is your beloved that he is more than any other beloved,

O most beautiful among women?

What is your beloved that he is more than any other beloved,

That thus you call us to solemnly swear?”

“His eyes are like doves

Beside streams of water,

Washed in milk,

And sitting in their setting.

[fn]Where has your beloved gone,

O most beautiful among women?

Where has your beloved turned,

That we may seek him with you?”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:2 -

[fn]My beloved has gone down to his garden,

To the beds of spices,

To shepherd his flock in the gardens

And gather lilies.

“I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine,

He who shepherds his flock among the lilies.”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:6 -

“Your teeth are like a flock of ewes

Which have come up from their washing,

All of which bear twins,

And not one among them has [fn]lost her young.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:11 -

[fn]I went down to the garden of nut trees

To see the blossoms of the valley,

To see whether the vine had flourished

Or the pomegranates had bloomed.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:13 -

[fn],[fn]Come back, come back, O Shulammite;

Come back, come back, that we may behold you!”

[fn]Why should you behold the Shulammite,

As at the dance of [fn]the two companies?

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:1 -

[fn]How beautiful are your [fn]feet in sandals,

O noble's daughter!

The curves of your thighs are like ornaments,

The work of the hands of an artist.

“Your navel is like a round basin

Which never lacks mixed wine;

Your belly is like a heap of wheat

Encircled with lilies.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:4 -

“Your head [fn]crowns you like Carmel,

“Come, my beloved, let us go out into the [fn]fields,

Let us spend the night in the villages.

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:4 -

[fn]I call you to solemnly swear, O daughters of Jerusalem,

[fn]Why should you arouse or awaken my love

Until [fn]she pleases?”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:7 -

“Many waters cannot quench love,

Nor will rivers overflow it;

If a man were to give all the riches of his house for love,

It would be utterly despised.”

Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:8 -

[fn]We have a little sister,

And she has no breasts;

What shall we do for our sister

On the day when she is spoken for?

[fn]I was a wall, and my breasts were like towers;

Then I became in his eyes as one who finds peace.

“Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon;

He gave the vineyard to caretakers.

Each one was to bring [fn]one thousand shekels of silver for its fruit.

[fn]O you who sit in the gardens,

My companions are giving heed to your voice

Let me hear it!”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:1 -

The vision of Isaiah the son of Amoz concerning Judah and Jerusalem, which he beheld in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:8 -

The daughter of Zion is left like a shelter in a vineyard,

Like a watchman's hut in a cucumber field, like a besieged city.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:21 -

How the faithful city has become a harlot,

She who was full of justice!

Righteousness once lodged in her,

But now murderers.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:24 -

Therefore the Lord, Yahweh of hosts,

The Mighty One of Israel, declares,

“Ah, I will be comforted concerning My adversaries,

And I will avenge Myself on My enemies.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:2 -

Now it will be that

In the last days

The mountain of the house of Yahweh

Will be established [fn]as the head of the mountains,

And will be lifted up above the hills;

And all the nations will stream to it.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:3 -

And many peoples will come and say,

“Come, let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh,

To the house of the God of Jacob,

That He may instruct us [fn]from His ways

And that we may walk in His paths.”

For from Zion the [fn]law will go forth

And the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:11 -

The [fn]lofty look of [fn]man will be made low,

And the [fn]men made high will be bowed down,

And Yahweh alone will be exalted in that day.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:17 -

The loftiness of [fn]man will be bowed down,

And the [fn]men who are high will be made low;

And Yahweh alone will be exalted in that day,

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:7 -

He will [fn]protest on that day, saying,

“I will not be your [fn]healer,

For in my house there is neither bread nor cloak;

You should not appoint me ruler of the people.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:14 -

Yahweh enters into judgment with the elders of His people and His princes,

“It is you who have consumed the vineyard;

The plunder robbed of the afflicted is in your houses.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:16 -

Moreover, Yahweh said, “Because the daughters of Zion are haughty

And walk with outstretched necks and seductive eyes,

And go along with mincing steps

And tinkle the bangles on their feet,

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:18 -

In that day the Lord will remove the beauty of their anklets, headbands, crescent ornaments,

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 4:2 -

In that day the Branch of Yahweh will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the earth will be the pride and the [fn]honor of those of Israel who escape.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 4:3 - It will be that he who remains in Zion and is left in Jerusalem will be called holy—everyone who is written down for life in Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 4:4 - When the Lord has washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion and rinsed away the bloodshed of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment and the spirit of burning,
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 4:6 - And there will be a booth to give shade from the heat by day, and refuge and a hiding place from the storm and the rain.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:1 -

Let me sing now for my well-beloved

A song of my beloved concerning His vineyard.

My well-beloved had a vineyard on [fn]a fertile hill.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:2 -

He dug it all around, removed its stones,

And planted it with [fn]the choicest vine.

And He built a tower in the middle of it

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

Then He hoped for it to produce good grapes,

But it produced only [fn]worthless ones.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:3 -

“So now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah,

Please judge between Me and My vineyard.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:9 -

In my ears Yahweh of hosts has sworn, “Surely, many houses shall become desolate,

Even great and good ones, without inhabitants.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:16 -

But Yahweh of hosts will be lofty in judgment,

And the holy God will show Himself holy in righteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:21 -

Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes

And understanding in their own [fn]sight!

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:25 -

On this account, the anger of Yahweh has burned against His people,

And He has stretched out His hand against them and struck them down.

And the mountains trembled, and their corpses [fn]lay like refuse in the middle of the streets.

For all this His anger is not turned back,

But His hand is still stretched out.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:26 -

He will also lift up a standard to the [fn]distant nations,

And will whistle for it from the ends of the earth;

And behold, it will come with speed swiftly.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:30 -

And it will growl over it in that day like the roaring of the sea.

If one looks to the land, behold, there is darkness and distress;

Even the light is darkened by its clouds.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 6:5 - Then I said,

“Woe is me, for I am ruined!

For I am a man of unclean lips,

And I live among a people of unclean lips;

For my eyes have seen the King, Yahweh of hosts.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 6:6 -

Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he had taken from the altar with tongs.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 7:1 -

Now it happened in the days of Ahaz, the son of Jotham, the son of Uzziah, king of Judah, that Rezin the king of Aram and Pekah the son of Remaliah, king of Israel, went up to Jerusalem to wage war against it, but could not [fn]conquer it.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 7:2 - When it was told to the house of David, saying, “[fn]The Arameans have camped in Ephraim,” his heart and the hearts of his people shook as the trees of the forest shake before the wind.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 7:14 - “Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the [fn]virgin [fn]will be with child and bear a son, and she will call His name [fn]Immanuel.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 7:18 -

And it will be in that day, that Yahweh will whistle for the fly that is in the [fn]remotest part of the rivers of Egypt and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 7:19 - And they will all come and rest upon the steep [fn]ravines, on the crevices of the cliffs, on all the thorn bushes, and on all the [fn]watering places.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 7:20 -

In that day, the Lord will shave with a razorone hired from regions beyond the [fn]River (that is, the king of Assyria)—the head and the hair of the legs; and it will also remove the beard.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 7:21 -

And it will be in that day, that a man may keep alive a heifer and a pair of sheep;

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 7:23 -

And it will be in that day, that every place where there used to be one thousand vines, valued at [fn]one thousand shekels of silver, will become briars and thorns.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 8:3 - Then I drew near to the prophetess, and she conceived and bore a son. Then Yahweh said to me, “Call his name [fn]Maher-shalal-hash-baz,
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 8:14 -

“Then He shall become a sanctuary;

But to both the houses of Israel, a stone to strike and a rock to stumble over,

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

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 8:15 -

“And many will stumble over them;

Then they will fall and be broken;

They will even be snared and caught.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 8:18 - Behold, I and the children whom Yahweh has given me are for signs and wonders in Israel from Yahweh of hosts, who dwells on Mount Zion.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 9:1 -

[fn]But there will be no more gloom for her who was in anguish; in earlier times He treated the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali with contempt, but later on He shall make it glorious, by the way of the sea, on the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the [fn]Gentiles.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 9:2 -

[fn]The people who walk in darkness

Will see a great light;

Those who live in the land of the shadow of death,

The light will shine on them.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 9:3 -

You shall multiply the nation,

You shall [fn]make great [fn]their gladness;

They will be glad in Your presence

As with the gladness [fn]of harvest,

As [fn]men rejoice when they divide the spoil.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 9:7 -

There will be no end to the increase of His government or of peace,

On the throne of David and over his kingdom,

To establish it and to uphold it with justice and righteousness

From then on and forevermore.

The zeal of Yahweh of hosts will accomplish this.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 9:9 -

And all the people know it,

That is, Ephraim and the inhabitants of Samaria,

Saying in lofty pride and in arrogance of heart:

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 9:14 -

So Yahweh cuts off head and tail from Israel,

Both palm branch and bulrush in a single day.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 9:18 -

For wickedness burns like a fire;

It consumes briars and thorns;

It even sets the thickets of the forest aflame,

And they roll upward in a column of smoke.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:3 -

Now what will you do in the day of visitation,

And in the devastation which will come from afar?

To whom will you flee for help?

And where will you leave your [fn]glory?

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:5 -

Woe to Assyria, the rod of My anger

And the staff in whose hands is My indignation,

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:10 -

“As my hand has reached to the kingdoms of the idols,

Whose graven images were greater than those of Jerusalem and Samaria,

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:12 -

So it will be that when the Lord has completed all His work on Mount Zion and on Jerusalem, He will say, “I will [fn]punish the fruit of the arrogant heart of the king of Assyria and the pomp of his eyes which are raised high.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:15 -

Is the axe to boast itself over the one who chops with it?

Is the saw to magnify itself over the one who wields it?

That would be like a rod wielding those who lift it,

Or like a staff lifting him who is not wood.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:17 -

And the light of Israel will become a fire and his Holy One a flame,

And it will burn and devour his thorns and his briars in a single day.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:20 -

Now it will be in that day, that the remnant of Israel and those of the house of Jacob who have escaped, will never again rely on the one who struck them, but will truly rely on Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:22 -

For though your people, O Israel, may be like the sand of the sea,

Only a remnant within them will return;

A destructive end is decreed, overflowing with righteousness.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:23 -

For a complete destruction, one that is decreed, Lord Yahweh of hosts will do in the midst of the whole land.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:24 -

Therefore thus says Lord Yahweh of hosts, “O My people who inhabit Zion, do not fear the Assyrian [fn]who strikes you with the rod and lifts up his staff against you, the way Egypt did.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:26 - And Yahweh of hosts will waken a scourge against him like the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb; and His staff will be over the sea and He will lift it up the way He did in Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:27 - So it will be in that day, that [fn]his burden will be removed from your shoulders and his yoke from your neck, and the yoke will be broken because of fatness.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:28 -

He has come against Aiath,

He has passed through Migron;

At Michmash he deposited his baggage.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 10:32 -

Yet today he will stand at Nob;

He shakes his fist at the mountain of the [fn]daughter of Zion, the hill of Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 11:4 -

But with righteousness He will judge the poor,

And decide with uprightness for the afflicted of the earth;

And He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth,

And with the breath of His lips He will put the wicked to death.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 11:10 -

Then it will be in that day,

That the nations will seek the root of Jesse,

Who will stand as a [fn]standard for the peoples;

And His resting place will be [fn]glorious.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 11:14 -

And they will swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines on the west;

Together they will plunder the sons of the east;

[fn]They will stretch out their hands over Edom and Moab,

And the sons of Ammon [fn]will obey them.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 11:15 -

And Yahweh will devote to destruction

The tongue of the [fn]Sea of Egypt;

And He will wave His hand over the [fn]River

With His scorching wind;

And He will strike it into seven streams

And make men walk over [fn]dry-shod.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 11:16 -

And there will be a highway from Assyria

For the remnant of His people who will remain,

Just as there was for Israel

In the day that they came up out of the land of Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 12:1 -

Then you will say in that day,

“I will give thanks to You, O Yahweh;

For although You were angry with me,

Your anger is turned away,

And You comfort me.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 12:2 -

“Behold, God is my salvation,

I will trust and not dread;

For [fn]Yah—Yahweh Himself—is my strength and song,

And He has become my salvation.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 12:4 -

And in that day you will say,

“Give thanks to Yahweh, call on His name.

Make known His deeds among the peoples;

[fn]Make them remember that His name is exalted.”

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 12:5 -

Praise Yahweh in song, for He has done [fn]majestic things;

Let this be known throughout the earth.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 12:6 -

Cry aloud and shout for joy, O inhabitant of Zion,

For great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 13:20 -

It will never be inhabited or dwelt in from generation to generation;

Nor will the [fn]Arab pitch his tent there,

Nor will shepherds make their flocks lie down there.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 13:22 -

[fn]And hyenas will howl in their fortified towers

And jackals in their luxurious palaces.

Her fateful time also [fn]will soon come

And her days will not be prolonged.

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:3 -

And it will be in the day when Yahweh gives you rest from your pain and turmoil and harsh slavery in which you have been enslaved,

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:4 - that you will take up this [fn]taunt against the king of Babylon, and say,

“How the taskmaster has ceased,

And how [fn]fury has ceased!

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:10 -

“They will all answer and say to you,

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 5:12 - This was because an extraordinary spirit, knowledge and insight, interpretation of dreams, explanation of enigmas, and [fn]solving of difficult problems were found in this Daniel, whom the king named Belteshazzar. Let Daniel now be summoned, and he will declare the interpretation.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 5:14 - “Now I have heard about you that [fn]a spirit of the gods is in you, and that illumination, insight, and extraordinary wisdom have been found in you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 5:16 - “But I personally have heard about you, that you are able to give interpretations and [fn]solve difficult problems. Now if you are able to read the writing and make its interpretation known to me, you will be clothed with purple and wear a necklace of gold around your neck, and you will rule with power as the [fn]third ruler in the kingdom.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 5:23 - but you have raised yourself up against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of His house before you, and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines have been drinking wine from them; and you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which do not see, hear, or know. But the God in whose hand are your life-breath and all your ways, you have not honored.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 5:27 - “‘TEKĒL'—you have been weighed on the scales and found lacking.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 5:29 -

Then Belshazzar said the word, and they clothed Daniel with purple and put a necklace of gold around his neck and issued a proclamation concerning him that he now would be the [fn]third powerful ruler in the kingdom.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 5:30 -

That same night Belshazzar the Chaldean king was killed.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:1 -

[fn]It seemed good to Darius that he set 120 satraps over the kingdom, that they would be in charge of the whole kingdom,

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:3 - Then this Daniel began distinguishing himself [fn]among the commissioners and satraps because an extraordinary spirit was in him, and the king planned to set him over the entire kingdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:5 - Then these men said, “We will not find any ground of accusation against this Daniel unless we find it against him with regard to the law of his God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:10 -

Now when Daniel knew that the written document was signed, he entered his house (now in his roof chamber he had windows open toward Jerusalem); and he continued kneeling on his knees three times a day, praying and giving thanks before his God, [fn]as he had been doing previously.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:17 - And a stone was brought and placed over the mouth of the den; and the king sealed it with his own signet ring and with the signet rings of his nobles so that nothing would be changed in regard to Daniel.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:19 -

Then the king arose at dawn, at the break of day, and hurriedly went to the lions' den.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:20 - When he had come near the den to Daniel, he cried out with a troubled voice. The king answered and said to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you constantly serve, been able to save you from the lions?”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:23 - Then the king was greatly pleased and said for Daniel to be taken up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no harm whatsoever was found on him because he had believed in his God.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:25 -

Then Darius the king wrote to all the peoples, nations, and men of every tongue who were inhabiting all the land: “May your [fn]peace abound!

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:26 - [fn]I make a decree that in all the [fn]dominion of my kingdom, men are to fear and be in dread before the God of Daniel;

For He is the living God and enduring forever,

And His kingdom is one which will not be destroyed,

And His [fn]dominion will be unto the end.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:27 -

“He saves and delivers and does signs and wonders

In heaven and on earth,

Who has also saved Daniel from the [fn]power of the lions.”

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 6:28 -

So this Daniel enjoyed success in the kingdom of Darius and in the kingdom of Cyrus the Persian.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:1 -

In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel saw a dream and visions in his head as he lay on his bed; then he wrote the dream down and said the [fn]following summary of the matter.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:2 - Daniel answered and said, “I was looking in my vision by night, and behold, the four winds of heaven were stirring up the great sea.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:5 - “And behold, another beast, a second one in the likeness of a bear. And it was raised up on one side, and three ribs were in its mouth between its teeth; and thus they said to it, ‘Arise, devour much meat!'
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:8 - “While I was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and behold, [fn]this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth speaking great boasts.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:13 -

“I kept looking in the night visions,

And behold, with the clouds of heaven

One like a Son of Man was coming,

And He came up to the Ancient of Days

And came near before Him.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:15 -

“As for me, Daniel, my spirit was distressed [fn]within me, and the visions of my head kept alarming me.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:20 - and the meaning of the ten horns that were on its head and the other horn which came up and before which three of them fell, namely, that horn which had eyes and a mouth speaking great boasts and [fn]which was larger in appearance than its associates.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:23 -

“Thus he said: ‘The fourth beast will be a fourth kingdom on the earth, which will be different from all the other kingdoms and will devour the whole earth and tread it down and crush it.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:25 - ‘He will speak words against the Most High and wear down the saints of the Highest One, and he will intend to make changes in seasons and in law; and [fn]they will be given into his hand for a [fn]time, [fn]times, and half a [fn]time.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 7:28 -

[fn]At this point the matter of this revelation ended. As for me, Daniel, my thoughts were greatly alarming me, and the [fn]splendor of my face changed, but I kept the matter in my heart.”

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:1 -

In the third year of the reign of Belshazzar the king, a vision appeared to me, [fn]Daniel, after the one which appeared to me [fn]previously.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:2 - And I looked in the vision. And it happened that while I was looking, I was in the citadel of Susa, which is in the province of Elam; and I looked in the vision, and I myself was beside the Ulai [fn]Canal.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:6 - Then it came up to the ram that had the two horns, which I had seen standing in front of the [fn]canal, and ran at it in his strong wrath.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:8 - Then the male goat magnified itself exceedingly. But as soon as it was mighty, the large horn was broken; and in its place there came up four conspicuous horns toward the four winds of [fn]heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:15 -

Now it happened when I, Daniel, had seen the vision, that I sought [fn]to understand it; and behold, standing before me was one [fn]who had the appearance of a man.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:17 - So he came near to where I was standing, and when he came I was terrified and fell on my face; but he said to me, “Son of man, understand that the vision pertains to the time of the end.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:18 -

Now while he was talking with me, I sank into a deep sleep with my face to the ground; but he touched me and made me stand [fn]upright.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:22 - “And the broken horn and the four horns that stood in its place are four kingdoms which will take their stand from his nation, although not with his power.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:24 -

“His power will be mighty, but not by his own power,

And he will [fn]destroy to an [fn]astonishing degree

And succeed and do his will;

He will [fn]destroy mighty men and [fn]the holy people.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 8:25 -

“And through his insight

He will cause deceit to succeed by his hand;

And he will magnify himself in his heart,

And he will [fn]destroy many while they are [fn]at ease.

He will even stand against the Prince of princes,

But he will be broken without hands.

In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, from the seed of the Medes, who was made king over the kingdom of the Chaldeans

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:2 - in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, discerned in the books the number of the years concerning which the word of [fn]Yahweh came to Jeremiah the prophet for the fulfillment of the laying waste of Jerusalem, namely, seventy years.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:3 - So I gave my face to the Lord God to seek Him by prayer and supplications, with fasting, sackcloth, and ashes.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:6 - “Moreover, we have not listened to Your slaves the prophets, who spoke in Your name to our kings, our princes, our fathers, and all the people of the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:7 -

“To You, O Lord, belongs righteousness, but to us [fn]open shame, as it is this day—to the men of Judah, the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and all Israel, those who are nearby and those who are far away in all the countries to which You have banished them, because of their unfaithful deeds which they have committed against You.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:10 - nor have we listened to the voice of Yahweh our God, to walk in His [fn]laws which He put before us through His slaves the prophets.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:11 - “Indeed all Israel has trespassed against Your law, even turning aside, not listening to Your voice; so the curse has been poured out on us, along with the oath which is written in the [fn]law of Moses the [fn]servant of God, for we have sinned against Him.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:12 - “Thus He has established His words which He had spoken against us and against our judges who judged us, to bring on us great calamity; for under the whole heaven there has not been done anything like what was done to Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:13 - “As it is written in the [fn]law of Moses, all this calamity has come on us; yet we have not [fn]entreated the favor of Yahweh our God by turning from our iniquity and acting wisely in Your truth.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:15 -

“So now, O Lord our God, who have brought Your people out of the land of Egypt with a strong hand and have made a name for Yourself, as it is this day—we have sinned; we have acted wickedly.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:16 - “O Lord, in accordance with all Your righteousness, let now Your anger and Your wrath turn away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; for because of our sins and the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people have become a reproach to all those around us.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:21 - and while I was still speaking in prayer, then the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision [fn]previously, [fn]touched me [fn]in my extreme weariness about the time of the evening offering.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:23 - “At the beginning of your supplications the word was issued, so I have come to tell you, for you are [fn]highly esteemed; so understand the message and gain understanding in what has appeared.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:26 - “Then after the sixty-two weeks the [fn]Messiah will be cut off and have [fn]nothing, and the people of the prince who is to come will destroy the city and the sanctuary. And [fn]its end will come with a flood; even to the end [fn]there will be war; desolations are decreed.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 9:27 - “And he will make a [fn]firm covenant with the many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will make sacrifice and grain offering cease; and on the wing of [fn]abominations will come one who [fn]makes desolate, even until a complete destruction, one that is decreed, is poured out on the one who [fn]makes desolate.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:1 -

In the third year of Cyrus king of Persia, a word was revealed to Daniel, who was named Belteshazzar; and the word was true and one of great [fn]conflict, but he understood the word and had an understanding of what had appeared.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:2 -

In those days, I, Daniel, had been mourning for three entire [fn]weeks.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:4 -

And on the twenty-fourth day of the first month, while I was by the bank of the great river, that is, the [fn]Tigris,

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:5 - I lifted my eyes and looked, and behold, there was a certain man dressed in linen, whose loins were girded with a belt of pure fine gold of Uphaz.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:7 - Now I, Daniel, alone saw the vision that appeared, but the men who were with me did not see the vision that appeared; nevertheless, a great terror fell on them, and they ran away to hide themselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:8 - So I alone remained and saw this great vision that appeared; yet no might remained in me, for my outward splendor turned to [fn]a deathly pallor, and I retained no might.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:9 - But I heard the sound of his words; and as soon as I heard the sound of his words, I fell into a deep sleep on my face, with my face to the ground.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:11 - And he said to me, “O Daniel, man of [fn]high esteem, understand the words that I am about to speak to you and stand [fn]upright, for I have now been sent to you.” And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood up trembling.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:12 - Then he said to me, “Do not be afraid, Daniel, for from the first day that you gave your heart to understand this and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to your words.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:15 - Now when he had spoken to me according to these words, I [fn]turned my face toward the ground and became speechless.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:16 -

And behold, one [fn]in the likeness of the sons of men was touching my lips; then I opened my mouth and spoke and said to him who was standing before me, “O my lord, as a result of the vision that appeared, pains have come upon me, and I have retained no might.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:17 - “Now how can such a servant of my lord talk with such as my lord? As for me, right now no might stands within me, nor does any breath remain within me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:19 - And he said, “O man of [fn]high esteem, do not be afraid. Peace [fn]be with you; gather strength and be strong!” Now as soon as he spoke to me, I received strength and said, “May my lord speak, for you have strengthened me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 10:21 - “However, I will tell you what is [fn]inscribed in the writing of truth. Now there is no one who [fn]exerts strength with me against these forces except Michael your prince.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:1 -

“Now I, in the first year of Darius the Mede, [fn]I stood to strengthen and to be a fortress for him.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:2 - “So now I will tell you the truth. Behold, three more kings are going to stand [fn]in Persia. Then a fourth will gain far more riches than all of them; as soon as he becomes strong through his riches, [fn]he will arouse the whole empire against the kingdom of [fn]Greece.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:6 - “And [fn]after some years they will form an alliance, and the daughter of the king of the South will come to the king of the North to carry out [fn]an equitable arrangement. But she will not retain her [fn]position of power, nor will he continue to stand with his [fn]power, but she will be given up, along with those who brought her in and the one who fathered her as well as he who strengthened her in those times.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:7 - “But one of the [fn]descendants of her line will stand in his place, and he will come against their military force and enter the fortress of the king of the North, and he will deal with them and display strength.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:11 - “And the king of the South will be enraged and go forth and fight [fn]with the king of the North. Then the latter will cause a great multitude to stand, but that multitude will be given into [fn]the hand of the former.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:13 - “And the king of the North will again cause a much greater multitude than the former to stand, and at the end of the times of those years, he will keep on coming with a great military force and much equipment.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:14 -

“Now in those times many will stand against the king of the South; the violent ones among your people will also lift themselves up in order to cause the vision to stand, but they will [fn]fall down.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:16 - “But he who comes against him will do as he pleases, and no one will be able to stand in [fn]opposition to him; he will also stand for a time in the [fn]Beautiful Land, with destruction in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:17 - “And he will set his face to come with the authority of his whole kingdom, [fn]bringing with him [fn]an equitable proposal which he will [fn]put into effect; he will also give him the daughter of women to destroy it.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:20 -

“Then in his place one will stand who will have an [fn]oppressor pass through the [fn]Jewel of his kingdom; yet within a few days he will be broken, though not in anger nor in battle.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:21 - “And in his place a despised person will stand, to whom the splendor of the kingdom has not been given, but he will come in a time of ease and take hold of the kingdom by intrigue.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:23 - “And after an alliance is made with him, he will [fn]practice deception, and he will go up and gain power with a small force of people.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:24 - [fn]In a time of ease he will enter the richest parts of the province, and he will do what his fathers never did, nor his fathers' fathers; he will distribute plunder, spoil, and possessions among them, and he will devise his schemes against strongholds, but only for a time.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:25 - “And he will stir up his strength and heart against the king of the South with a great military force; so the king of the South will wage war with an extremely large and mighty military force for war; but he will not stand, for schemes will be devised against him.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:28 - “Then he will return to his land with great possessions; but his heart will be set against the holy covenant, and he will take action and then return to his own land.

“At the appointed time he will return and come into the South, but [fn]this last time it will not happen the way it did before.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:30 - “Indeed, ships of [fn]Kittim will come against him; therefore he will be disheartened and will return and become indignant at the holy covenant and take action; so he will come back and show regard for those who forsake the holy covenant.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:38 - “But [fn]instead he will honor a god of fortresses, a god whom his fathers did not know; he will honor him with gold, silver, costly stones, and desirable things.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:39 - “And he will take action against the strongest of fortresses with the help of a foreign god; he will give great honor to [fn]those who recognize him and will cause them to rule over the many and will apportion land for a price.
Unchecked Copy BoxDan 11:40 -

“And at the time of the end, the king of the South will collide with him, and the king of the North will storm against him with chariots, with horsemen, and with many ships; and he will enter lands, overflow them, and pass through.

“Now at that time, Michael, the great prince who stands guard over the sons of your people, will stand. And there will be a time of distress such as never happened since there was a nation until that time; and at that time your people, everyone who is found written in the book, will be rescued.

Unchecked Copy BoxDan 12:2 - “And many of those who sleep in the dust of the ground will awake, these to everlasting life, but the others to reproach and everlasting [fn]contempt.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 1:10 -

[fn]Yet the number of the sons of Israel

Will be like the sand of the sea,

Which cannot be measured or numbered;

It will be said to them,

You are the sons of the living God.”

Lest I strip her naked

“Therefore, I will take back My grain at [fn]harvest time

And My new wine in its season.

I will also deliver My wool and My flax from them

Given to cover her nakedness.

“So I will visit the days of the Baals upon her

When she used to [fn]offer offerings in smoke to them

And adorn herself with her [fn]earrings and jewelry

And go after her lovers, so that she forgot Me,” declares Yahweh.

“And it will be in that day,” declares Yahweh,

That you will call Me [fn]Ishi

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 2:18 -

“And in that day I will cut a covenant for them

My people ask their wooden idol, and their diviner's wand declares to them;

For a spirit of harlotry has led them astray,

And they have played the harlot, departing [fn]from their God.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 4:16 -

Since Israel is stubborn

Like a stubborn heifer,

[fn]Can Yahweh now feed them

Like a lamb in a large field?

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 4:19 -

The wind binds them up in its wings,

And they will be ashamed because of their sacrifices.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 5:4 -

Their deeds will not allow them

To return to their God.

For a spirit of harlotry is within them,

And they do not know Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 5:5 -

Moreover, the pride of Israel answers against him,

And Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity;

Judah also has stumbled with them.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 5:8 -

Blow the horn in Gibeah,

The trumpet in Ramah.

Make a loud shout at Beth-aven:

“Behind you, Benjamin!”

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 5:9 -

Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of reproof;

Among the tribes of Israel I will make known what is true.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 5:15 -

I will go away and return to My place

Until they [fn]acknowledge their guilt and seek My face;

In their affliction they will seek Me earnestly.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 6:2 -

“He will make us alive after two days;

He will raise us up on the third day,

Therefore I have hewn them in pieces by the prophets;

And the judgments on you are like the light that goes forth.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 6:10 -

In the house of Israel I have seen an appalling thing;

Ephraim's harlotry is there; Israel has defiled itself.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 6:11 -

Also, O Judah, there is a harvest set for you

When I restore the fortunes of My people,

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:1 -

When I would heal Israel,

Then the iniquity of Ephraim is uncovered,

And the evil deeds of Samaria,

For they work falsehood;

The thief enters in;

Raiders [fn]ransack outside,

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:3 -

With their evil they make the king glad,

And the princes with their deceptions.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:6 -

For their hearts are like an oven

As they draw near in their [fn]plotting;

Their [fn]anger [fn]smolders all night;

In the morning it burns like a flaming fire.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:7 -

All of them are hot like an oven,

And they devour their judges;

All their kings have fallen.

None of them calls on Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:8 -

Ephraim mixes himself with the peoples;

Ephraim has become a cake not turned.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:10 -

So the pride of Israel answers against him,

Yet they have not returned to Yahweh their God,

Nor have they sought Him, for all this.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:12 -

When they go, I will spread My net over them;

I will bring them down like the birds of the sky.

I will chastise them in accordance with the report to their congregation.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:14 -

And they do not cry out to Me in their heart

When they wail on their beds;

For the sake of grain and new wine they [fn]gather together as sojourners;

They depart from Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 7:16 -

They turn, but not [fn]upward;

They are like a deceitful bow;

Their princes will fall by the sword

Because of the [fn]indignation of their tongue.

This will be their scoffing in the land of Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 8:6 -

For from Israel is even this!

A craftsman made it, so it is not God;

Surely the calf of Samaria will be smashed to splinters.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 8:8 -

Israel is swallowed up;

They are now among the nations

Like a vessel in which no one delights.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 8:10 -

Even though they hire allies among the nations,

Now I will gather them up;

And they will begin to [fn]diminish

Because of the burden of the king of princes.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 8:13 -

As for My sacrificial gifts,

They sacrifice the flesh and eat it,

But Yahweh has not accepted them.

Now He will remember their iniquity

And punish them for their sins;

They will return to Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 9:3 -

They will not remain in the land of Yahweh,

But Ephraim will return to Egypt,

And in Assyria they will eat unclean food.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 9:5 -

What will you do on the day of the appointed festival

And on the day of the feast of Yahweh?

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 9:6 -

For behold, they will go because of destruction;

Egypt will gather them up; Memphis will bury them.

Weeds will possess their desirable items of silver;

Thorns will be in their tents.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 9:8 -

Ephraim was a watchman with my God, a prophet;

Yet the snare of a bird catcher is in all his ways,

And there is only hostility in the house of his God.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 9:10 -

I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness;

I saw your fathers as the earliest fruit on the fig tree in its first season.

But they came to Baal-peor and devoted themselves to [fn]shame,

And they became as detestable as that which they loved.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 9:17 -

My God will despise them

Because they have not listened to Him;

And they will be those who flee among the nations.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 10:6 -

The thing itself will be carried to Assyria

As tribute to [fn]King Jareb;

Ephraim will receive shame,

And Israel will be ashamed of its own counsel.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 10:9 -

From the days of Gibeah you have sinned, O Israel;

There they stand!

Will not the battle against the sons of injustice overtake them in Gibeah?

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 10:10 -

When it is My desire, I will [fn]chastise them;

And the peoples will be gathered against them

When they are bound for their double guilt.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 10:13 -

You have plowed wickedness; you have reaped injustice;

You have eaten the fruit of deception.

Because you have trusted in your way, in your abundant warriors,

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 10:14 -

Therefore a rumbling will arise among your people,

And all your fortifications will be destroyed,

As Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel on the day of battle,

When mothers were dashed in pieces with their children.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 11:4 -

I led them with cords of a man, with bonds of love,

And I became to them as one who lifts the yoke from their jaws;

And I bent down and fed them.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 11:5 -

[fn]They will not return to the land of Egypt;

But Assyria—he will be [fn]their king

Because they refused to return to Me.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 11:6 -

And the sword will whirl against [fn]their cities

And will consume [fn]their gate bars

And devour them because of their counsels.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 11:8 -

How can I give you up, O Ephraim?

How can I surrender you, O Israel?

How can I give you over to be like Admah?

How can I make you like Zeboiim?

My heart is turned over within Me;

[fn]All My compassions are stirred.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 11:9 -

I will not execute My burning anger;

I will not make Ephraim a ruin again.

For I am God and not man, the Holy One in your midst,

And I will not come in [fn]wrath.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 11:12 -

[fn]Ephraim surrounds Me with [fn]lies

And the house of Israel with deceit;

And Judah is also unruly against God,

Even against the Holy One who is faithful.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:3 -

In the womb he took his brother by the heel,

And in his maturity he [fn]wrestled with God.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:4 -

Indeed, he [fn]wrestled with the angel and prevailed;

He wept and sought His favor.

He found Him at Bethel,

And there He spoke with us,

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:6 -

Therefore, return to your God,

Keep lovingkindness and justice,

And hope in your God continually.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:7 -

A [fn]merchant, in whose hands are deceptive balances,

He loves to oppress.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:9 -

But I have been Yahweh your God since the land of Egypt;

I will make you settle in tents again,

As in the days of the appointed festival.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:10 -

And I have spoken to the prophets,

And I [fn]made visions abound,

And by the hand of the prophets I gave parables.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:11 -

Is there wickedness in Gilead?

Surely they are worthless.

In Gilgal they sacrifice bulls;

Yes, their altars are like the stone heaps

Beside the furrows of the field.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:12 -

Now Jacob fled to the field of Aram,

And Israel worked for a wife,

And for a wife he kept sheep.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 12:13 -

But by a prophet Yahweh brought Israel up from Egypt,

And by a prophet he was kept.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 13:1 -

When Ephraim [fn]spoke, there was trembling.

He lifted himself up in Israel,

But through Baal he became guilty and died.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 13:5 -

I Myself knew you in the wilderness,

In the land of drought.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 13:10 -

Where now is your king,

That he may save you in all your cities,

And your judges of whom you said,

“Give me a king and princes”?

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 13:11 -

I gave you a king in My anger

And took him away in My wrath.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 13:13 -

The pains of childbirth come upon him;

He is not a wise son,

For [fn]it is not the time that he should delay at the opening of the womb.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 13:16 -

[fn]Samaria will be held guilty,

For she has rebelled against her God.

They will fall by the sword;

Their infants will be dashed in pieces,

And their pregnant women will be ripped open.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 14:1 -

[fn]Return, O Israel, to Yahweh your God,

For you have stumbled in your iniquity.

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 14:3 -

“Assyria will not save us;

We will not ride on horses,

Nor will we say again, ‘Our god,'

To the work of our hands;

For in You the [fn]orphan finds compassion.”

Unchecked Copy BoxHos 14:9 -

Whoever is wise, so let him discern these things;

Whoever is discerning, let him know them.

For the ways of Yahweh are right,

And the righteous will walk in them,

But transgressors will stumble in them.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 1:2 -

Hear this, O elders,

And give ear, all inhabitants of the land.

Has anything like this happened in your days

Or in your fathers' days?

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 1:13 -

Gird yourselves with sackcloth

And lament, O priests;

Wail, O ministers of the altar!

Come, spend the night in sackcloth,

O ministers of my God;

For the grain offering and the drink offering

Are withheld from the house of your God.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:1 -

Blow a trumpet in Zion,

And make a loud shout on My holy mountain!

Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble,

For the day of Yahweh is coming;

Surely it is near,

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:7 -

They run like mighty men;

They climb up the wall like men of war;

And they each march [fn]in line,

And they do not deviate from their paths.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:8 -

They do not crowd each other;

They march everyone in his path;

When they fall against the defending weapons,

They do not break ranks.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:12 -

“Yet even now,” declares Yahweh,

“Return to Me with all your heart

And with fasting, weeping, and [fn]wailing;

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:15 -

Blow a trumpet in Zion,

Set apart a fast as holy, call for a solemn assembly,

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:17 -

Let the priests, the ministers of Yahweh,

Weep between the porch and the altar,

And let them say, “Pity Your people, O Yahweh,

And do not make Your inheritance a reproach,

A byword among the nations.

Why should they among the peoples say,

‘Where is their God?'”

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:19 -

Then Yahweh [fn]will answer and say to His people,

“Behold, I am going to send you grain, new wine, and oil,

And you will be satisfied in full with [fn]them;

And I will never again make you a reproach among the nations.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:27 -

“Thus you will know that I am in the midst of Israel,

And that I am Yahweh your God,

And there is no other;

And My people will never be put to shame.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:29 -

“Even on the male slaves and female slaves

I will in those days pour out My Spirit.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:30 -

“And I will put wonders in the sky and on the earth,

Blood, fire, and columns of smoke.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 2:32 -

“And it will be that everyone who calls on the name of Yahweh

Will [fn]be delivered;

For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem

There will be those who escape,

As Yahweh has said,

Even among the survivors whom Yahweh calls.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 3:1 -

[fn]For behold, in those days and at that time,

When I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 3:2 -

I will gather all the nations

And bring them down to the valley of [fn]Jehoshaphat.

Then I will enter into judgment with them there

On behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel,

Whom they have scattered among the nations;

And they have divided up My land.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 3:9 -

Call out this message among the nations:

Set yourselves apart for a war; rouse the mighty men!

Let all the men of war approach, let them come up!

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 3:14 -

Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of [fn]decision!

For the day of Yahweh is near in the valley of [fn]decision.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 3:17 -

Then you will know that I am Yahweh your God,

Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain.

So Jerusalem will be holy,

And strangers will pass through it no more.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 3:18 -

And it will be in that day,

That the mountains will drip with [fn]sweet wine,

And the hills will flow with milk,

And all the brooks of Judah will flow with water;

And a spring will go out from the house of Yahweh

To water the valley of [fn]Shittim.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 3:19 -

Egypt will become a desolation,

And Edom will become a desolate wilderness,

Because of the violence [fn]done to the sons of Judah,

In whose land they have shed innocent blood.

Unchecked Copy BoxJoe 3:21 -

And I will avenge their blood which I have not avenged,

Indeed, Yahweh dwells in Zion.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 1:1 -

The words of Amos, who was among the sheepherders from Tekoa, which he beheld in visions concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 1:3 -

Thus says Yahweh,

“For three transgressions of Damascus and for four

I will not turn back its punishment

Because they threshed Gilead with implements of sharp iron.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 1:11 -

Thus says Yahweh,

“For three transgressions of Edom and for four

I will not turn back its punishment

Because he pursued his brother with the sword

While he corrupted his compassion;

And his anger also tore continually,

And he kept his wrath forever.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 1:13 -

Thus says Yahweh,

“For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon and for four

I will not turn back its punishment

Because they ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead

In order to enlarge their borders.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 1:14 -

“So I will kindle a fire on the wall of Rabbah,

And it will consume her citadels

Amid a loud shout on the day of battle

And a storm on the day of tempest.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 1:15 -

“And their king will go into exile,

He and his princes together,”

Says Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 2:2 -

“So I will send fire upon Moab,

And it will consume the citadels of Kerioth;

And Moab will die amid great rumbling,

Amid a loud shout and the sound of a trumpet.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 2:8 -

“On garments taken as pledges they stretch out beside every altar,

And in the house of their God they drink the wine of those who have been fined.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 2:10 -

“And it was I who brought you up from the land of Egypt,

And I led you in the wilderness forty years

[fn]That you might take possession of the land of the Amorite.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 2:16 -

“Even the [fn]most courageous of heart among the mighty men will flee naked in that day,” declares Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 3:6 -

If a trumpet is blown in a city will not the people tremble?

If a calamity happens in a city has not Yahweh done it?

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 3:9 -

Make it heard on the citadels in Ashdod and on the citadels in the land of Egypt and say, “Gather yourselves on the mountains of Samaria and see the great confusions within her and the oppressions in her midst.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 3:10 - “But they do not know how to do what is right,” declares Yahweh, “these who hoard up [fn]violence and devastation in their citadels.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 3:12 -

Thus says Yahweh,

“Just as the shepherd delivers from the lion's mouth a couple of legs or a piece of an ear,

So will the sons of Israel inhabiting Samaria be delivered

With the corner of a bed and the [fn]cover of a couch!

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 3:14 -

“For on the day that I punish Israel's transgressions,

I will also punish the altars of Bethel;

The horns of the altar will be cut in pieces,

And they will fall to the ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:1 -

Hear this word, you cows of Bashan who are on the mountain of Samaria,

Who oppress the poor, who crush the needy,

Who say to their [fn]husbands, “Bring now, that we may drink!”

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:2 -

Lord Yahweh has sworn by His holiness that,

“Behold, the days are coming upon you,

And [fn]they will take you away with meat hooks,

And the last of you with fish hooks.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:6 -

“But I gave you also cleanness of teeth in all your cities

And lack of bread in all your places,

Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:9 -

“I struck you with scorching wind and mildew;

And the gnawing locust was devouring

Your many gardens and vineyards, fig trees, and olive trees;

Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:10 -

“I sent a pestilence among you after the manner of Egypt;

I killed your choice men by the sword along with your captured horses,

And I made the stench of your camp rise up even in your nostrils;

Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:10 -

They hate him who reproves in the [fn]gate,

And they abhor him who speaks with integrity.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:11 -

Therefore because you [fn]impose heavy rent on the poor

And take a tribute of grain from them,

Though you have built houses of cut stone,

Yet you will not live in them;

You have planted desirable vineyards, yet you will not drink their wine.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:12 -

For I know your transgressions are many and your sins are mighty,

You who distress the righteous and take bribes

And [fn]turn aside the needy in the [fn]gate.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:13 -

Therefore at [fn]such a time the one with insight keeps silent, for it is an evil time.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:15 -

Hate evil, love good,

And set justice at the [fn]gate!

Perhaps Yahweh God of hosts

May be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:16 -

Therefore thus says Yahweh God of hosts, the Lord,

“There is wailing in all the plazas,

And in all the streets they say, ‘Alas! Alas!'

They also call the farmer to mourning

And [fn]professional weepers to wailing.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:17 -

“And in all the vineyards there is wailing

Because I will pass through the midst of you,” says Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:21 -

“I hate, I reject your feasts,

Nor do I [fn]delight in your solemn assemblies.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 5:25 -

[fn]Did you present Me with sacrifices and grain offerings in the wilderness for forty years, O house of Israel?

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 6:9 -

And it will be, if ten men are left in one house, they will die.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 6:12 -

Do horses run on rocks?

Or does one plow [fn]them with oxen?

Yet you have overturned justice into gall

And the fruit of righteousness into [fn]wormwood,

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 6:13 -

You who are glad in [fn]Lo-debar

[fn]And say, “Have we not by our own strength taken [fn]Karnaim for ourselves?”

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 7:4 -

Thus Lord Yahweh showed me, and behold, Lord Yahweh was calling to contend with them by fire, and it consumed the great deep and began to consume the [fn]farm land.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 7:7 -

Thus He showed me, and behold, the Lord was standing [fn]by a wall made with a [fn]plumb line, and in His hand was a [fn]plumb line.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 7:8 - And Yahweh said to me, “What do you see, Amos?” And I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said,

“Behold, I am about to put a plumb line

In the midst of My people Israel.

I will pass over them no longer.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 7:9 -

“The high places of Isaac will be desolated

And the sanctuaries of Israel laid waste.

Then I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.”

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 7:10 -

Then Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent word to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is unable to endure all his words.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 7:11 - “For thus Amos says, ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will certainly go from its land into exile.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 7:17 - “Therefore, thus says Yahweh, ‘Your wife will play the harlot in the city, your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword, your land will be divided up by a measuring line, and you yourself will die [fn]upon unclean land. Moreover, Israel will certainly go from its land into exile.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 8:3 - “And they will wail with the songs of the palace in that day,” declares Lord Yahweh. “Many will be the corpses; in every place [fn]they will cast them forth [fn]in silence.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 8:6 -

So as to buy the poor for [fn]money

And the needy for a pair of sandals,

And that we may sell the refuse of the wheat?”

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 8:8 -

“Because of this will not the land tremble

And everyone who inhabits it mourn?

Indeed, all of it will rise up like the Nile,

And it will be tossed about

And subside like the Nile of Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 8:9 -

“And it will be in that day,” declares Lord Yahweh,

“That I will make the sun go down at noon

And make the earth dark in [fn]broad daylight.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 8:13 -

“In that day the beautiful virgins

And the choice men will faint from thirst.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 9:1 -

I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and He said,

“Strike the capitals so that the thresholds will quake,

And break them on the heads of them all!

Then I will kill the rest of them with the sword;

Not one of them who can flee will flee,

And not one of them who can survive will escape.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 9:4 -

“And though they go into captivity before their enemies,

From there I will command the sword that it kill them,

And I will set My eyes against them for evil and not for good.”

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 9:9 -

“For behold, I am commanding,

And I will shake the house of Israel among all nations

As grain is shaken in a sieve,

But not a [fn]kernel will fall to the ground.

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 9:10 -

“All the sinners of My people will die by the sword,

Those who say, ‘The calamity will not overtake or confront us.'

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 9:11 -

“In that day I will raise up the fallen [fn]booth of David

And wall up its breaches;

I will also raise up its ruins

And rebuild it as in the ancient days,

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 9:13 -

“Behold, days are coming,” declares Yahweh,

“When the plowman will overtake the reaper

And the treader of grapes him who sows seed;

When the mountains will drip [fn]sweet wine

And all the hills will melt.

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:2 -

“Behold, I will make you small among the nations;

You are greatly despised.

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:3 -

“The arrogance of your heart has deceived you,

You who dwell in the clefts of [fn]the cliff,

In the height of your habitation,

Who says in his heart,

‘Who will bring me down to earth?'

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:8 -

“Will I not on that day,” declares Yahweh,

“Cause the wise men to perish from Edom

And discernment from the mountain of Esau?

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:11 -

“On the day that you stood aloof,

On the day that strangers took his wealth captive

And foreigners entered his gate

And cast lots for Jerusalem

You too were as one of them.

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:12 -

“Now do not look on your brother's day with triumph,

The day of his misfortune.

And do not be glad over the sons of Judah

In the day when they perish;

And do not [fn]let your mouth speak great things

In the day of their distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:13 -

“Do not enter the gate of My people

In the day of their disaster.

Indeed, you, do not look on their calamity with triumph

In the day of their disaster.

And do not send out for their wealth

In the day of their disaster.

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:14 -

“Do not stand at the fork of the road

To cut down those among them who escape;

And do not deliver over their survivors

In the day of their distress.

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:17 -

“But on Mount Zion there will be those who escape,

And it will be holy.

And the house of Jacob will possess their possessions.

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:18 -

“Then the house of Jacob will be a fire

And the house of Joseph a flame;

But the house of Esau will be as stubble.

And they will set [fn]them on fire and consume [fn]them

So that there will be no survivor of the house of Esau,”

For Yahweh has spoken.

Unchecked Copy BoxOba 1:19 -

Then those of the [fn]Negev will possess the mountain of Esau,

And those of the [fn]Shephelah, the Philistine plain;

And they will possess the territory of Ephraim and the territory of Samaria,

And Benjamin will possess Gilead.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 1:2 - “Arise, go to Nineveh, the great city, and call out against it, for their evil has come up before Me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJon 1:4 -

But Yahweh hurled a great wind on the sea, and there was a great storm on the sea so that the ship gave thought to [fn]breaking apart.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 1:5 - Then the sailors became fearful, and every man cried to his god, and they hurled the [fn]cargo which was in the ship into the sea to lighten it [fn]for them. But Jonah had gone down below into the innermost part of the vessel, lain down, and fallen deep asleep.
Unchecked Copy BoxJon 1:7 -

Then each man said to the other, “Come, let us [fn]have the lots fall so we may know on whose account this calamitous evil has struck us.” So they [fn]had the lots fall, and the lot fell on Jonah.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 1:8 - Then they said to him, “Tell us, now! On whose account has this calamitous evil struck us? What is your occupation? And where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJon 1:17 -

[fn]And Yahweh appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the stomach of the fish three days and three nights.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 2:2 - and he said,

“I called out of my distress to Yahweh,

And He answered me.

I cried for help from the belly of Sheol;

You heard my voice.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 2:7 -

“While my soul was fainting within me,

I remembered Yahweh,

And my prayer came to You,

To Your holy temple.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 3:2 - “Arise, go to Nineveh, the great city, and call out to it this very call which I am going to speak to you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJon 3:7 - And he cried out and said,

“In Nineveh by the [fn]decree of the king and his nobles[fn]: Do not let man, [fn]animal, herd, or flock taste a thing. Do not let them eat, and do not let them drink water.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 3:8 -

“But both man and [fn]animal must be covered with sackcloth; and let [fn]men call on God with their strength that each may turn from his evil way and from the violence which is in [fn]his hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 4:2 - And he prayed to Yahweh and said, “Ah! O Yahweh, was not this my word to myself while I was still in my own land? Therefore I went ahead to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that You are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, and one who relents concerning evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxJon 4:5 -

Then Jonah went out from the city and sat east of the city. And there he made a booth for himself and sat under it in the shade until he could see what would happen in the city.

Unchecked Copy BoxJon 4:11 - “So should I not have pity on Nineveh, the great city, in which there are more than 120,000 persons who do not know the difference between their right and left hand, as well as many [fn]animals?”
Unchecked Copy BoxMic 1:1 -

The word of [fn]Yahweh which came to Micah of Moresheth in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he beheld concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 1:2 -

Hear, O peoples, all of [fn]you;

Give heed, O earth, as well as its fullness,

And let Lord Yahweh be a witness against you,

The Lord from His holy temple.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 1:4 -

The mountains will melt under Him,

And the valleys will be split,

Like wax before the fire,

Like water poured down a steep place.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 1:7 -

And all of her graven images will be smashed,

And all of her earnings will be burned with fire

And all of her idols I will make desolate,

For she collected them from a harlot's earnings,

And to the earnings of a harlot they will return.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 1:10 -

Tell it not in Gath,

Weep not at all.

At [fn]Beth-le-aphrah roll yourself in the dust.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 1:13 -

Harness the chariot to the team of horses,

O inhabitant of Lachish

She was the beginning of sin

To the daughter of Zion

Because in you were found

The transgressions of Israel.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 2:1 -

Woe to those who devise wickedness,

Who work out evil on their beds!

When the light of the morning comes, they do it,

For it is in the power of their hands.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 2:4 -

“On that day they will take up against you a [fn]taunt

And [fn]utter a bitter wailing and say,

‘We are completely devastated!

He exchanges the portion of my people;

How He removes it from me!

To the faithless one, He apportions our fields.'

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 2:5 -

“Therefore you will have no one [fn]stretching a measuring line

For you by lot in the assembly of Yahweh.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 2:12 -

“I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob;

I will surely gather the remnant of Israel.

I will put them together like sheep in the fold;

Like a flock in the midst of its pasture

They will be noisy with men.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 3:4 -

Then they will cry out to Yahweh,

But He will not answer them.

Instead, He will hide His face from them at that time

Because they have practiced evil deeds.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 3:5 -

Thus says Yahweh concerning the prophets who lead my people astray;

When they have something to bite with their teeth,

They call out, “Peace,”

But against him who puts nothing in their mouths,

They set themselves apart for war.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 3:8 -

On the other hand I am filled with power

With the Spirit of Yahweh

And with justice and might

To declare to Jacob his transgression,

Even to Israel his sin.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 3:10 -

Who build Zion with bloodshed

And Jerusalem with violent injustice.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 3:11 -

Her heads pronounce judgment for a bribe,

And her priests instruct for a price,

And her prophets divine for money.

Yet they lean on Yahweh saying,

“Is not Yahweh in our midst?

Evil will not come upon us.”

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 4:2 -

And many nations will come and say,

“Come and let us go up to the mountain of Yahweh

And to the house of the God of Jacob,

That He may instruct us from His ways

And that we may walk in His paths.”

For from Zion will go forth the law,

And the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 4:5 -

Though all the peoples walk

Each in the name of his god,

As for us, we will walk

In the name of Yahweh our God forever and ever.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 4:6 -

“In that day,” declares Yahweh,

“I will assemble the lame

And gather the banished,

Even those upon whom I have brought calamity.

Unchecked Copy BoxMic 4:7 -
