Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:33 - So my honesty will answer for me later, when you come to look into my wages with you. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats and black among the lambs, if found with me, shall be counted stolen."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:35 - But that day Laban removed the he-goats that were striped and spotted, and all the she-goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had white on it, and every lamb that was black, and put them in charge of his sons;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:38 - He set the rods which he had peeled in front of the flocks in the runnels, that is, the watering troughs, where the flocks came to drink. And since they bred when they came to drink,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:40 - And Jacob separated the lambs, and set the faces of the flocks toward the striped and all the black in the flock of Laban; and he put his own droves apart, and did not put them with Laban's flock.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:41 - Whenever the stronger of the flock were breeding Jacob laid the rods in the runnels before the eyes of the flock, that they might breed among the rods,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:6 - You know that I have served your father with all my strength;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:10 - In the mating season of the flock I lifted up my eyes, and saw in a dream that the he-goats which leaped upon the flock were striped, spotted, and mottled.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:13 - I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed a pillar and made a vow to me. Now arise, go forth from this land, and return to the land of your birth.'"
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:14 - Then Rachel and Leah answered him, "Is there any portion or inheritance left to us in our father's house?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:18 - and he drove away all his cattle, all his livestock which he had gained, the cattle in his possession which he had acquired in Paddan-aram, to go to the land of Canaan to his father Isaac.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:23 - he took his kinsmen with him and pursued him for seven days and followed close after him into the hill country of Gilead.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:25 - And Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country, and Laban with his kinsmen encamped 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. And he went out of Leah's tent, and entered Rachel's.
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 way of women is upon me." So he searched, but did not find the household gods.
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 have changed my wages ten times.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:54 - and Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain and called his kinsmen to eat bread; and they ate bread and tarried all night on the mountain.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:10 - I am not worthy of the least of all the steadfast love and all the faithfulness which thou hast shown to thy servant, for with only my staff I crossed this Jordan; and now I have become two companies.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:19 - He likewise instructed the second and the third and all who followed the droves, "You shall say the same thing to Esau when you meet him,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:20 - and you shall say, 'Moreover your servant Jacob is behind us.'" For he thought, "I may appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterwards I shall see his face; perhaps he will accept me."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:21 - So the present passed on before him; and he himself lodged that night in the camp.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:25 - When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and Jacob's thigh was put out of joint as he wrestled with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:2 - And he put the maids with their children in front, then Leah with her children, and Rachel and Joseph last of all.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:14 - Let my lord pass on before his servant, and I will lead on slowly, according to the pace of the cattle which are before me and according to the pace of the children, until I come to my lord in Se'ir."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:16 - So Esau returned that day on his way to Se'ir.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:18 - And Jacob came safely to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, on his way from Paddan-aram; and he camped before the city.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:5 - Now Jacob heard that he had defiled his daughter Dinah; but his sons were with his cattle in the field, so Jacob held his peace until they came.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:7 - The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard of it; and the men were indignant and very angry, because he had wrought folly in Israel by lying with Jacob's daughter, for such a thing ought not to be done.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:10 - You shall dwell with us; and the land shall be open to you; dwell and trade in it, and get property in it."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:15 - Only on this condition will we consent to you: that you will become as we are and every male of you be circumcised.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:19 - And the young man did not delay to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter. Now he was the most honored of all his family.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:22 - Only on this condition will the men agree to dwell 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 cattle, their property and all their beasts be ours? Only let us agree with them, and they will dwell with us."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:25 - On the third day, when they were sore, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their swords and came upon the city unawares, and killed all the males.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:26 - They slew Hamor and his son Shechem with the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went away.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:27 - And the sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plundered the city, because their sister had been defiled;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:28 - they took their flocks and their herds, their asses, and whatever was in the city and in the field;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:29 - all their wealth, all their little ones and their wives, all that was in the houses, they captured and made their prey.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:30 - Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have brought trouble on me by making me odious to the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Per'izzites; my numbers are few, and if they gather themselves against me and attack me, I shall be destroyed, both I and my household."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:1 - God said to Jacob, "Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there; and make there an altar to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:3 - then let us arise and go up to Bethel, that I may make there an altar to the God who answered me in the day of my distress and has been with me wherever I have gone."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:4 - So they gave to Jacob all the foreign gods that they had, and the rings that were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was near Shechem.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:6 - And 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 there he built an altar, and called the place El-bethel, because there God had revealed himself to him when he fled from his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:9 - God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and 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, and poured oil on it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:15 - So Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him, Bethel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:16 - Then they journeyed from Bethel; and when they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:17 - And when she was in her hard labor, the midwife said to her, "Fear not; for now you will have another son."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:18 - And as her soul was departing (for she died), she called his name Ben-o'ni; but his father called his name Benjamin.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:19 - So Rachel died, and she was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem),
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:22 - While Israel dwelt in that land Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine; and Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:26 - The sons of Zilpah, Leah's maid: Gad and Asher. These were 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, or Kir'iath-ar'ba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:5 - and Oholiba'mah bore Je'ush, 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, his sons, his daughters, and all the members of his household, his cattle, all his beasts, and all his property which he had acquired in the land of Canaan; and he went into a land away from his brother Jacob.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:8 - So Esau dwelt in the hill country of Se'ir; Esau is Edom.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:9 - These are the descendants of Esau the father of the E'domites in the hill country of Se'ir.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:16 - Korah, Gatam, and Am'alek; these are the chiefs of El'iphaz in the land of Edom; they are the sons of Adah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:17 - These are the sons of Reu'el, Esau's son: the chiefs Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah; these are the chiefs of Reu'el in the land of Edom; they are the sons of Bas'emath, Esau's wife.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:21 - Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan; these are the chiefs of the Horites, the sons of Se'ir in the land of Edom.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:24 - These are the sons of Zib'eon: A'iah and Anah; he is the Anah who found the hot springs in the wilderness, as he pastured the asses of Zib'eon his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:30 - Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan; these are the chiefs of the Horites, according to their clans in the land of Se'ir.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:31 - These are the kings who reigned in the land of Edom, before any king reigned over the Israelites.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:32 - Bela the son of Be'or reigned in Edom, the name of his city being Din'habah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:35 - Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who defeated Mid'ian in the country of Moab, reigned in his stead, the name of his city being Avith.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:40 - These are the names of the chiefs of Esau, according to their families and their dwelling places, by their names: the chiefs Timna, Alvah, Jetheth,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:43 - Mag'diel, and Iram; these are the chiefs of Edom (that is, Esau, the father of Edom), according to their dwelling places in the land of their possession.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:1 - Jacob dwelt in the land of his father's sojournings, in the land of Canaan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:7 - behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and lo, my sheaf arose and stood upright; and behold, your sheaves gathered round it, and bowed down to my sheaf."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:13 - And Israel said to Joseph, "Are not your brothers pasturing the flock at Shechem? Come, I will send you to them." And he said to him, "Here I am."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:15 - And a man found him wandering in the fields; and the man asked him, "What are you seeking?"
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:17 - And the man said, "They have gone away, for I heard them say, 'Let us go to Dothan.'" So Joseph went after his brothers, and found them at Dothan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:22 - And Reuben said to them, "Shed no blood; cast him into this pit here in the wilderness, but lay no hand upon him"--that he might rescue him out of their hand, to restore him to his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:29 - When Reuben returned to the pit and saw that Joseph was not in the pit, he rent his clothes
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:1 - It happened at that time that Judah went down from his brothers, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:5 - Yet again she bore a son, and she called his name Shelah. She was in Chezib when she bore him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:11 - Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, "Remain a widow in your father's house, till Shelah my son grows up"--for he feared that he would die, like his brothers. So Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:14 - she put off her widow's garments, and put on a veil, wrapping herself up, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she had not been given to him in marriage.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:18 - He said, "What pledge shall I give you?" She replied, "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 - When Judah sent the kid by his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand, he could not find her.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:21 - And he asked the men of the place, "Where is the harlot who was at Enaim by the wayside?" And they said, "No harlot has been here."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:24 - About three months later Judah was told, "Tamar your daughter-in-law has played the harlot; and moreover she is with child by harlotry." And Judah said, "Bring her out, and let her be burned."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:25 - As she was being brought out, she sent word to her father-in-law, "By the man to whom these belong, I am with child." And she said, "Mark, I pray you, whose these are, the signet and the cord and the staff."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:27 - When the time of her delivery came, there were twins in her womb.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:28 - And when she was in labor, one put out a hand; and the midwife took and bound on his hand a scarlet thread, saying, "This came out first."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:2 - The LORD was with Joseph, and he became a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:3 - and his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD caused all that he did to prosper in his hands.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:5 - From the time that he made him overseer in his house and over all that he had the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had, in house and field.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:8 - But he refused and said to his master's wife, "Lo, having me my master has no concern about anything in the house, and he has put everything that he has in my hand;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:9 - he is not greater in this house than I am; nor has he kept back anything from me except yourself, because you are his wife; how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?"
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:11 - But one day, when he went into the house to do his work and none of the men of the house was there in the house,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:12 - she caught him by his garment, saying, "Lie with me." But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and got out of the house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:13 - And when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had fled out of the house,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:14 - she called to the men of her household and said to them, "See, he has brought among us a Hebrew to insult us; he came in to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:15 - and when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment with me, and fled and got out of the house."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:20 - And Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were confined, and he was there in prison.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:22 - And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's care all the prisoners who were in the prison; and whatever was done there, he was the doer of it;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:23 - the keeper of the prison paid no heed to anything that was in Joseph's care, because the LORD was with him; and whatever he did, the LORD made it prosper.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:3 - and he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison where Joseph was confined.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:4 - The captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he waited on them; and they continued for some time in custody.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:5 - And one night they both dreamed--the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison--each his own dream, and each dream with its own meaning.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:7 - So he asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in custody in his master's house, "Why are your faces downcast today?"
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:9 - So the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "In my dream there was a vine before me,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:10 - and on the vine there were three branches; as soon as it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and the clusters ripened into grapes.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:11 - Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:14 - But remember me, when it is well with you, and do me the kindness, I pray you, to make mention of me to Pharaoh, and so get me out of this house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:17 - and in the uppermost basket there were all sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating it out of the basket on my head."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:20 - On the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, he made a feast for all his servants, and lifted up the head of the chief butler and the head of the chief baker among his servants.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:2 - and behold, there came up out of the Nile seven cows sleek and fat, and they fed in the reed grass.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:5 - And he fell asleep and dreamed a second time; and behold, seven ears of grain, plump and good, were growing on one stalk.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:10 - When Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me and the chief baker in custody in the house of the captain of the guard,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:11 - we dreamed on the same night, he and I, each having a dream with its own meaning.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:17 - Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Behold, in my dream I was standing on the banks of the Nile;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:18 - and seven cows, fat and sleek, came up out of the Nile and fed in the reed grass;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:19 - and seven other cows came up after them, poor and very gaunt and thin, such as I had never seen in all the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:22 - I also saw in my dream seven ears growing on one stalk, full and good;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:29 - There will come seven years of great plenty throughout all the land of Egypt,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:30 - but after them there will arise seven years of famine, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt; the famine will consume the land,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:35 - And let them gather all the food of these good years that are coming, and lay up grain under the authority of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:36 - That food shall be a reserve for the land against the seven years of famine which are to befall the land of Egypt, so that the land may not perish through the famine."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:38 - And Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find such a man as this, in whom is the Spirit of God?"
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:47 - During the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth abundantly,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:48 - and he gathered up all the food of the seven years when there was plenty in the land of Egypt, and stored up food in the cities; he stored up in every city the food from the fields around it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:52 - The name of the second he called E'phraim, "For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:53 - The seven years of plenty that prevailed in the land of Egypt came to an end;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:54 - and the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:57 - Moreover, all the earth came to Egypt to Joseph to buy grain, because the famine was severe over all the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:1 - When Jacob learned that there was grain in Egypt, he said to his sons, "Why do you look at one another?"
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:2 - And he said, "Behold, I have heard that there is grain in Egypt; go down and buy grain for us there, that we may live, and not die."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:5 - Thus the sons of Israel came to buy among the others who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:13 - And they said, "We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is no more."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:15 - By this you shall 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 - And 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 remain confined in your prison, and let the rest go and carry grain for the famine of your households,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:21 - Then they said to one another, "In truth we are guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he besought us and we would not listen; therefore is this distress come upon us."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:28 - and he said to his brothers, "My money has been put back; here it is in the mouth of my sack!" At this their hearts failed them, and they turned 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 roughly to us, and took us to be spies of the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:32 - we are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:33 - Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, 'By this I shall know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your households, and go your way.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:35 - As they emptied their sacks, behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack; and when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were dismayed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:38 - But he said, "My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he only is left. If harm should befall him on the journey that you are to make, you would bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:11 - Then their father Israel said to them, "If it must be so, then do this: take some of the choice fruits of the land in your bags, and carry down to the man a present, a little balm and a little honey, gum, myrrh, pistachio nuts, and almonds.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:12 - Take double the money with you; carry back with you the money that was returned in the mouth of your sacks; perhaps it was an oversight.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:15 - So the men took the present, and they took double the money with them, 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, which was replaced in our sacks the first time, that we are brought in, so that he may seek occasion against us and fall upon us, to make slaves of us and seize our asses."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:19 - So they went up to the steward of Joseph's house, and spoke with him at the door of the house,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:21 - and when we came to the lodging place we opened our sacks, and there was every man's money in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight; so we have brought it again with us,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:23 - He replied, "Rest assured, do not be afraid; your God and the God of your father must have put treasure in your sacks for you; I received your money." Then he brought Simeon out to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:26 - When Joseph came home, they brought into the house to him the present which they had with them, and bowed down to him to the ground.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:5 - Is it not from this that my lord drinks, and by this that he divines? You have done wrong in so doing.'"
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:8 - Behold, the money which we found in the mouth of our sacks, we brought back to you from the land of Canaan; how then should we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:12 - And he searched, beginning with the eldest 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 me, and harm befalls him, you will bring down my gray hairs in sorrow to Sheol.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:31 - when he sees that the lad is not with us, he will die; and your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:6 - For the famine has been in the land these two years; and there are yet five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvest.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:10 - you shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you shall be near me, you and your children and your children's children, and your flocks, your herds, and all that you have;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:13 - You must tell my father of all my splendor in Egypt, and of all that you have seen. Make haste and bring my father down here."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:24 - Then he sent his brothers away, and as they departed, he said to them, "Do not quarrel on the way."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:2 - And God spoke to Israel in visions of the night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob." And he said, "Here am I."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:6 - They also took their cattle and their goods, which they had gained in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt, Jacob and all his offspring with him,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:12 - The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan); and the sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:15 - (these are the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan-aram, together with his daughter Dinah; altogether his sons and his daughters numbered thirty-three).
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:20 - And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manas'seh and E'phraim, whom As'enath, the daughter of Poti'phera the priest of On, bore to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:27 - and the sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two; all the persons of the house of Jacob, that came into Egypt, were seventy.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:31 - Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, "I will go up and tell Pharaoh, and will say to him, 'My brothers and my father's household, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:34 - you shall say, 'Your servants have been keepers of cattle from our youth even until now, both we and our fathers,' in order that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:1 - So Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, "My father and my brothers, with their flocks and herds and all that they possess, have come from the land of Canaan; they are now in the land of Goshen."
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:4 - 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 severe in the land of Canaan; and now, we pray you, let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen."

Unchecked Copy BoxExo 13:15 - For when Pharaoh stubbornly refused to let us go, the LORD slew all the first-born in the land of Egypt, both the first-born of man and the first-born of cattle.

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:30 - The LORD your God who goes before you will himself fight for you, just as he did for you in Egypt before your eyes,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:31 - and in the wilderness, where you have seen how the LORD your God bore you, as a man bears his son, in all the way that you went until you came to this place.'

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:33 - who went before you in the way to seek you out a place to pitch your tents, in fire by night, to show you by what way you should go, and in the cloud by day.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 1:44 - Then the Amorites who lived in that hill country came out against you and chased you as bees do and beat you down in Se'ir as far as Hormah.

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:4 - And command the people, You are about to pass through the territory of your brethren the sons of Esau, who live in Se'ir; and they will be afraid of you. So take good heed;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:5 - do not contend with them; for I will not give you any of their land, no, not so much as for the sole of the foot to tread on, because I have given Mount Se'ir to Esau as a possession.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:7 - For the LORD your God has blessed you in all the work of your hands; he knows your going through this great wilderness; these forty years the LORD your God has been with you; you have lacked nothing.'

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:36 - From Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and from the city that is in the valley, as far as Gilead, there was not a city too high for us; the LORD our God gave all into our hands.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 2:37 - Only to the land of the sons of Ammon you did not draw near, that is, to all the banks of the river Jabbok and the cities of the hill country, and wherever the LORD our God forbade us.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:2 - But the LORD said to me, 'Do not fear him; for I have given him and all his people and his land into your hand; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon the king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon.'
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:4 - And we took all his cities at that time--there was not a city which we did not take from them--sixty cities, the whole region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:10 - all the cities of the tableland and all Gilead and all Bashan, as far as Sal'ecah and Ed're-i, cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:11 - (For only Og the king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the Reph'aim; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbah of the Ammonites? Nine cubits was its length, and four cubits its breadth, according to the common cubit.)
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:12 - "When we took possession of this land at that time, I gave to the Reubenites and the Gadites the territory beginning at Aro'er, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and half the hill country of Gilead with its cities;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:18 - "And I commanded you at that time, saying, 'The LORD your God has given you this land to possess; all your men of valor shall pass over armed before your brethren the people of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:19 - But your wives, your little ones, and your cattle (I know that you have many cattle) shall remain in the cities which I have given you,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:20 - until the LORD gives rest to your brethren, as to you, and they also occupy the land which the LORD your God gives them beyond the Jordan; then you shall return every man to his possession which I have given you.'
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:21 - And I commanded Joshua at that time, 'Your eyes have seen all that the LORD your God has done to these two kings; so will the LORD do to all the kingdoms into which you are going over.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:23 - "And I besought the LORD at that time, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:24 - 'O Lord GOD, thou hast only begun to show thy servant thy greatness and thy mighty hand; for what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do such works and mighty acts as thine?
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 3:29 - So we remained in the valley opposite Beth-pe'or.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:4 - but you who held fast to the LORD your God are all alive this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:5 - Behold, I have taught you statutes and ordinances, as the LORD my God commanded me, that you should do them in the land which you are entering to take possession of it.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:7 - For what great nation is there that has a god so near to it as the LORD our God is to us, whenever we call upon him?
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:10 - how on the day that you stood before the LORD your God at Horeb, the LORD said to me, 'Gather the people to me, that I may let them hear my words, so that they may learn to fear me all the days that they live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children so.'
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:14 - And the LORD commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and ordinances, that you might do them in the land which you are going over to possess.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:15 - "Therefore take good heed to yourselves. Since you saw no form on the day that the LORD spoke to you at Horeb out of the midst of the fire,
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:18 - the likeness of anything that creeps on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the water under the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:20 - But the LORD has taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be a people of his own possession, as at this day.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:21 - Furthermore the LORD was angry with me on your account, and he swore that I should not cross the Jordan, and that I should not enter the good land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:22 - For I must die in this land, I must not go over the Jordan; but you shall go over and take possession of that good land.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:27 - And the LORD will scatter you among the peoples, and you will be left few in number among the nations where the LORD will drive you.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:29 - But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find him, if you search after him with all your heart and with all your soul.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:34 - Or has any god ever attempted to go and take a nation for himself from the midst of another nation, by trials, by signs, by wonders, and by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the LORD your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 4:37 - And because he loved your fathers and chose their descendants after them, and brought you out of Egypt with his own presence, by his great power,

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:29 - Oh that they had such a mind as this always, to fear me and to keep all my commandments, that it might go well with them and with their children for ever!
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:31 - But you, stand here by me, and I will tell you all the commandment and the statutes and the ordinances which you shall teach them, that they may do them in the land which I give them to possess.'
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 5:33 - You shall walk in all the way which the LORD your God has commanded you, that you may live, and that it may go well with you, and that you may live long in the land which you shall possess.
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:1 - "Now this is the commandment, the statutes and the ordinances which the LORD your God commanded me to teach you, that you may do them in the land to which you are going over, to possess it;

Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 6:22 - and the LORD showed signs and wonders, great and grievous, against Egypt and against Pharaoh and all his household, before our eyes;
Unchecked Copy BoxDeu 7:8 - but it is because the LORD loves you, and is keeping the oath which he swore to your fathers, that the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:26 - Then all the people of Israel, the whole army, went up and came to Bethel and wept; they sat there before the LORD, and fasted that day until evening, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:27 - And the people of Israel inquired of the LORD (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:28 - and Phin'ehas the son of Elea'zar, son of Aaron, ministered before it in those days), saying, "Shall we yet again go out to battle against our brethren the Benjaminites, or shall we cease?" And the LORD said, "Go up; for tomorrow I will give them into your hand."
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:29 - So Israel set men in ambush round about Gib'e-ah.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:30 - And the people of Israel went up against the Benjaminites on the third day, and set themselves in array against Gib'e-ah, as at other times.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:31 - And the Benjaminites went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and as at other times they began to smite and kill some of the people, in the highways, one of which goes up to Bethel and the other to Gib'e-ah, and in the open country, about thirty men of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:33 - And all the men of Israel rose up out of their place, and set themselves in array at Ba'al-ta'mar; and the men of Israel who were in ambush rushed out of their place west of Geba.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:35 - And the LORD defeated Benjamin before Israel; and the men of Israel destroyed twenty-five thousand one hundred men of Benjamin that day; all these were men who drew the sword.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:37 - And the men in ambush made haste and rushed upon Gib'e-ah; the men in ambush moved out and smote all the city with the edge of the sword.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:39 - the men of Israel should turn in battle. Now Benjamin had begun to smite and kill about thirty men of Israel; they said, "Surely they are smitten down before us, as in the first battle."
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:42 - Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel in the direction of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them, and those who came out of the cities destroyed them in the midst of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:45 - And they turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon; five thousand men of them were cut down in the highways, and they were pursued hard to Gidom, and two thousand men of them were slain.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:46 - So all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty-five thousand men that drew the sword, all of them men of valor.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:47 - But six hundred men turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, and abode at the rock of Rimmon four months.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 20:48 - And the men of Israel turned back against the Benjaminites, and smote them with the edge of the sword, men and beasts and all that they found. And all the towns which they found they set on fire.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:1 - Now the men of Israel had sworn at Mizpah, "No one of us shall give his daughter in marriage to Benjamin."
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:3 - And they said, "O LORD, the God of Israel, why has this come to pass in Israel, that there should be today one tribe lacking in Israel?"

Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:5 - And the people of Israel said, "Which of all the tribes of Israel did not come up in the assembly to the LORD?" For they had taken a great oath concerning him who did not come up to the LORD to Mizpah, saying, "He shall be put to death."
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:7 - What shall we do for wives for those who are left, since we have sworn by the LORD that we will not give them any of our daughters for wives?"
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:10 - So the congregation sent thither twelve thousand of their bravest men, and commanded them, "Go and smite the inhabitants of Ja'besh-gil'ead with the edge of the sword; also the women and the little ones.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:12 - And they found among the inhabitants of Ja'besh-gil'ead four hundred young virgins who had not known man by lying with him; and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:13 - Then the whole congregation sent word to the Benjaminites who were at the rock of Rimmon, and proclaimed peace to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:14 - And Benjamin returned at that time; and they gave them the women whom they had saved alive of the women of Ja'besh-gil'ead; but they did not suffice for them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:15 - And the people had compassion on Benjamin because the LORD had made a breach in the tribes of Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:19 - So they said, "Behold, there is the yearly feast of the LORD at Shiloh, which is north of Bethel, on the east of the highway that goes up from Bethel to Shechem, and south of Lebo'nah."
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:20 - And they commanded the Benjaminites, saying, "Go and lie in wait in the vineyards,
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:21 - and watch; if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come out of the vineyards and seize each man his wife from the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:22 - And when their fathers or their brothers come to complain to us, we will say to them, 'Grant them graciously to us; because we did not take for each man of them his wife in battle, neither did you give them to them, else you would now be guilty.'"
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:23 - And the Benjaminites did so, and took their wives, according to their number, from the dancers whom they carried off; then they went and returned to their inheritance, and rebuilt the towns, and dwelt in them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJdg 21:24 - And the people of Israel departed from there at that time, every man to his tribe and family, and they went out from there every man to his inheritance.

Unchecked Copy BoxRth 1:11 - But Na'omi said, "Turn back, my daughters, why will you go with me? Have I yet sons in my womb that they may become your husbands?
Unchecked Copy BoxRth 1:13 - would you therefore wait till they were grown? Would you therefore refrain from marrying? No, my daughters, for it is exceedingly bitter to me for your sake that the hand of the LORD has gone forth against me."
Unchecked Copy BoxRth 1:20 - She said to them, "Do not call me Na'omi, call me Mara, for the Almighty has dealt very bitterly with me.

Unchecked Copy BoxRth 2:14 - And at mealtime Bo'az said to her, "Come here, and eat some bread, and dip your morsel in the wine." So she sat beside the reapers, and he passed to her parched grain; and she ate until she was satisfied, and she had some left over.
Unchecked Copy BoxRth 2:17 - So she gleaned in the field until evening; then she beat out what she had gleaned, and it was about an ephah of barley.
Unchecked Copy BoxRth 2:22 - And Na'omi said to Ruth, her daughter-in-law, "It is well, my daughter, that you go out with his maidens, lest in another field you be molested."

Unchecked Copy BoxRth 4:5 - Then Bo'az said, "The day you buy the field from the hand of Na'omi, you are also buying Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of the dead, in order to restore the name of the dead to his inheritance."
Unchecked Copy BoxRth 4:7 - Now this was the custom in former times in Israel concerning redeeming and exchanging: to confirm a transaction, the one drew off his sandal and gave it to the other, and this was the manner of attesting in Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxRth 4:11 - Then all the people who were at the gate, and the elders, said, "We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman, who is coming into your house, like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you prosper in Eph'rathah and be renowned in Bethlehem;

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 1:21 - And the man Elka'nah and all his house went up to offer to the LORD the yearly sacrifice, and to pay his vow.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 1:23 - Elka'nah her husband said to her, "Do what seems best to you, wait until you have weaned him; only, may the LORD establish his word." So the woman remained and nursed her son, until she weaned him.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 3:8 - And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you called me." Then Eli perceived that the LORD was calling the boy.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 6:8 - And take the ark of the LORD and place it on the cart, and put in a box at its side the figures of gold, which you are returning to him as a guilt offering. Then send it off, and let it go its way.

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 till he comes, since he must bless the sacrifice; afterward those eat who are invited. Now go up, for you will meet him immediately."

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:27 - David arose and went, along with his men, and killed two hundred of the Philistines; and David brought their foreskins, which were given in full number to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. And Saul gave him his daughter Michal for 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 to my father about you; and if I learn anything I will tell you."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:5 - for he took his life in his hand and he slew the Philistine, and the LORD wrought a great victory for all Israel. You saw it, and rejoiced; why then will you sin against innocent blood by killing David without cause?"

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:3 - But David replied, "Your father knows well that I have found favor in your eyes; and he thinks, 'Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved.' But truly, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:5 - David said to Jonathan, "Behold, tomorrow is the new moon, and I should not fail to sit at table with the king; but let me go, that I may hide myself in the field till the third day at evening.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:8 - Therefore deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a sacred covenant with you. But if there is guilt in me, slay me yourself; for why should you bring me to your father?"
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:15 - and do not cut off your loyalty from my house for ever. When the LORD cuts off every one of the enemies of David from the face of the earth,
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:19 - And on the third day you will be greatly missed; then go to the place where you hid yourself when the matter was in hand, and remain beside yonder stone heap.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:24 - So David hid himself in the field; and when the new moon came, the king sat down to eat food.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:26 - Yet Saul did not say anything that day; for he thought, "Something has befallen him; he is not clean, surely he is not clean."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:29 - he said, 'Let me go; for our family holds a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has commanded me to be there. So now, if I have found favor in your eyes, let me get away, and see my brothers.' For this reason he has not come to the king's table."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:34 - And Jonathan rose from the table in fierce anger and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved for David, because his father had disgraced him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:36 - And he said to his lad, "Run and find the arrows which I shoot." As the lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:42 - Then Jonathan said to David, "Go in peace, forasmuch as we have sworn both of us in the name of the LORD, saying, 'The LORD shall be between me and you, and between my descendants and your descendants, for ever.'" And he rose and departed; and Jonathan went into the city.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:2 - And David said to Ahim'elech the priest, "The king has charged me with a matter, and said to me, 'Let no one know anything of the matter about which I send you, and with which I have charged you.' I have made an appointment with the young men for such and such a place.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:5 - And David answered the priest, "Of a truth women have been kept from us as always when I go on an expedition; the vessels of the young men are holy, even when it is a common journey; how much more today will their vessels be holy?"
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:7 - Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD; his name was Do'eg the E'domite, the chief of Saul's herdsmen.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:8 - And David said to Ahim'elech, "And have you not here a spear or a sword at hand? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:9 - And the priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the valley of Elah, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod; if you will take that, take it, for there is none but that here." And David said, "There is none like that; give it to me."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:10 - And David rose and fled that day from Saul, and went to A'chish the king of Gath.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:11 - And the servants of A'chish said to him, "Is not this David the king of the land? Did they not sing to one another of him in dances, 'Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands'?"

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:2 - And every one who was in distress, and every one who was in debt, and every one who was discontented, gathered to him; and he became captain over them. And there were with him about four hundred men.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:4 - And he left them with the king of Moab, and they stayed with him all the time that David was in the stronghold.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:5 - Then the prophet Gad said to David, "Do not remain in the stronghold; depart, and go into the land of Judah." So David departed, and went into the forest of Hereth.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:6 - Now Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men who were with him. Saul was sitting at Gib'e-ah, under the tamarisk tree on the height, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing about him.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:11 - Then the king sent to summon Ahim'elech the priest, the son of Ahi'tub, and all his father's house, the priests who were at Nob; and all of them came to the king.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:14 - Then Ahim'elech answered the king, "And who among all your servants is so faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, and captain over your bodyguard, and honored in your house?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:15 - Is today the first time that I have inquired of God for him? No! Let not the king impute anything to his servant or to all the house of my father; for your servant has known nothing of all this, much or little."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:18 - Then the king said to Do'eg, "You turn and fall upon the priests." And Do'eg the E'domite turned and fell upon the priests, and he killed on that day eighty-five persons who wore the linen ephod.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:19 - And Nob, the city of the priests, he put to the sword; both men and women, children and sucklings, oxen, asses and sheep, he put to the sword.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:22 - And David said to Abi'athar, "I knew on that day, when Do'eg the E'domite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have occasioned the death of all the persons of your father's house.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:14 - And David remained in the strongholds in the wilderness, in the hill country of the Wilderness of Ziph. And Saul sought him every day, but God did not give him into his hand.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:15 - And David was afraid because Saul had come out to seek his life. David was in the Wilderness of Ziph at Horesh.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:16 - And Jonathan, Saul's son, rose, and went to David at Horesh, and strengthened his hand in God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:18 - And the two of them made a covenant before the LORD; David remained at Horesh, and Jonathan went home.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:19 - Then the Ziphites went up to Saul at Gib'e-ah, saying, "Does not David hide among us in the strongholds at Horesh, on the hill of Hachi'lah, which is south of Jeshi'mon?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:22 - Go, make yet more sure; know and see the place where his haunt is, and who has seen him there; for it is told me that he is very cunning.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:23 - See therefore, and take note of all the lurking places where he hides, and come back to me with sure information. Then 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 - And they arose, and went to Ziph ahead of Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness of Ma'on, in the Arabah to the south of Jeshi'mon.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:11 - See, my father, see the skirt of your robe in my hand; for by the fact that I cut off the skirt of your robe, and did not kill you, you may know and see that there is no wrong or treason in my hands. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt my life to take it.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:4 - David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:7 - I hear that you have shearers; now your shepherds have been with us, and we did them no harm, and they missed nothing, all the time 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 come on a feast day. Pray, give whatever you have at hand to your servants and to your son David.'"

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

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:20 - Now therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth away from the presence of the LORD; for the king of Israel has come out to seek my life, like one who hunts a partridge in the mountains."

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 27:3 - And David dwelt with A'chish at Gath, he and his men, every man with his household, and David with his two wives, Ahin'o-am of Jezreel, and Ab'igail of Carmel, Nabal's widow.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 28:7 - Then Saul said to his servants, "Seek out for me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her." And his servants said to him, "Behold, there is a medium at Endor."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 28:8 - So Saul disguised himself and put on other garments, and went, he and two men with him; and they came to the woman by night. And he said, "Divine for me by a spirit, and bring up for me whomever I shall name to you."

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 28:15 - Then Samuel said to Saul, "Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?"

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 28:17 - The LORD has done to you as he spoke by me; for the LORD has torn the kingdom out of your hand, and given it to your neighbor, David.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:4 - But the commanders of the Philistines were angry with him; and the commanders of the Philistines said to him, "Send the man back, that he may return to the place to which you have assigned him; he shall not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us. For how could this fellow reconcile himself to his lord? Would it not be with the heads of the men here?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:5 - Is not this David, of whom they sing to one another in dances, 'Saul has slain his thousands, and David his ten thousands'?"
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:6 - Then A'chish called David and said to him, "As the LORD lives, you have been honest, and to me it seems right that you should march out and in with me in the campaign; for I have found nothing wrong in you from the day of your coming to me to this day.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:7 - So go back now; and go peaceably, that you may not displease the lords of the Philistines."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:8 - And David said to A'chish, "But what have I done? What have you found in your servant from the day I entered your service until now, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?"
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:9 - And A'chish made answer to David, "I know that you are as blameless in my sight as an angel of God; nevertheless the commanders of the Philistines have said, 'He shall not go up with us to the battle.'
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:10 - Now then rise early in the morning with the servants of your lord who came with you; and start early in the morning, and depart as soon as you have light."
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 30:1 - Now when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, the Amal'ekites had made a raid upon the Negeb and upon Ziklag. They had overcome Ziklag, and burned it with fire,

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 30:6 - And David was greatly distressed; for the people spoke of stoning him, because all the people were bitter in soul, each for his sons and daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:12 - But the man said to Jo'ab, "Even if I felt in my hand the weight of a thousand pieces of silver, I would not put forth my hand against the king's son; for in our hearing the king commanded you and Abi'shai and It'tai, 'For my sake protect the young man Ab'salom.'

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:18 - Now Ab'salom in his lifetime had taken and set up for himself the pillar which is in the King's Valley, for he said, "I have no son to keep my name in remembrance"; he called the pillar after his own name, and it is called Ab'salom's monument to this day.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:20 - And Jo'ab said to him, "You are not to carry tidings today; you may carry tidings another day, but today you shall carry no tidings, because the king's son is dead."

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:3 - And the people stole into the city that day as people steal in who are ashamed when they flee in battle.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:6 - because you love those who hate you and hate those who love you. For you have made it clear today that commanders and servants are nothing to you; for today I perceive that if Ab'salom were alive and all of us were dead today, then you would be pleased.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:7 - Now therefore arise, go out and speak kindly to your servants; for I swear by the LORD, if you do not go, not a man will stay with you this night; and this will be worse for you than all the evil that has come upon you from your youth until now."

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:18 - and they crossed the ford to bring over the king's household, and to do his pleasure. And Shim'e-i the son of Gera fell down before the king, as he was about to cross the Jordan,

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:28 - For all my father's house were but men doomed to death before my lord the king; but you set your servant among those who eat at your table. What further right have I, then, to cry to the king?"

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:43 - And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, "We have ten shares in the king, and in David also we have more than you. Why then did you despise us?

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:1 - Now there happened to be there a worthless fellow, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjaminite; and he blew the trumpet, and said, "We have no portion in David, and we have no inheritance in the son of Jesse; every man to his tents, O Israel!"

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:14 - For if you keep silence at such a time as this, relief and deliverance will rise for the Jews from another quarter, but you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 4:16 - "Go, gather all the Jews to be found in Susa, and hold a fast on my behalf, and neither eat nor drink for three days, night or day. I and my maids will also fast as you do. Then I will go to the king, though it is against the law; and if I perish, I perish."
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 5:1 - On the third day Esther put on her royal robes and stood in the inner court of the king's palace, opposite the king's hall. The king was sitting on his royal throne inside the palace opposite the entrance to the palace;

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:6 - So Haman came in, and the king said to him, "What shall be done to the man whom the king delights to honor?" And Haman said to himself, "Whom would the king delight to honor more than me?"

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:9 - Then said Harbo'na, one of the eunuchs in attendance on the king, "Moreover, the gallows which Haman has prepared for Mor'decai, whose word saved the king, is standing in Haman's house, fifty cubits high."

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:5 - and Esther rose and stood before the king. And she said, "If it please the king, and if I have found favor in his sight, and if the thing seem right before the king, and I be pleasing in his eyes, let an order be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman the Ag'agite, the son of Hammeda'tha, which he wrote to destroy the Jews who are in all the provinces of the king.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:6 - For how can I endure to see the calamity that is coming to my people? Or how can I endure to see the destruction of my kindred?"
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:9 - The king's secretaries were summoned at that time, in the third month, which is the month of Sivan, on the twenty-third day; and an edict was written according to all that Mor'decai commanded concerning the Jews to the satraps and the governors and the princes of the provinces from India to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven provinces, to every province in its own script and to every people in its own language, and also to the Jews in their script and their language.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:11 - By these the king allowed the Jews who were in every city to gather and defend their lives, to destroy, to slay, and to annihilate any armed force of any people or province that might attack them, with their children and women, and to plunder their goods,

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:2 - the Jews gathered in their cities throughout all the provinces of King Ahasu-e'rus to lay hands on such as sought their hurt. And no one could make a stand against them, for the fear of them had fallen upon all peoples.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:16 - Now the other Jews who were in the king's provinces also gathered to defend their lives, and got relief from their enemies, and slew seventy-five thousand of those who hated them; but they laid no hands on the plunder.

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:22 - as the days on which the Jews got relief from their enemies, and as the month that had been turned for them from sorrow into gladness and from mourning into a holiday; that they should make them days of feasting and gladness, days for sending choice portions to one another and gifts to the poor.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 10:2 - And all the acts of his power and might, and the full account of the high honor of Mor'decai, to which the king advanced him, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia?

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:26 - the badgers are a people not mighty, yet they make their homes in the rocks;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:28 - the lizard you can take in your hands, yet it is in kings' palaces.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:31 - the strutting cock, the he-goat, and a king striding before his people.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:6 - Give strong drink to him who is perishing, and wine to those in bitter distress;
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:21 - She is not afraid of snow for her household, for all her household are clothed in scarlet.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:23 - Her husband is known in the gates, when he sits among the elders of the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:26 - She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:31 - Give her of the fruit of her hands, and let her works praise her in the gates.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:1 - The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:3 - What does man gain by all the toil at which he toils under the sun?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:10 - Is there a thing of which it is said, "See, this is new"? It has been already, in the ages before us.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:12 - I the Preacher have been king over Israel in Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:13 - And I applied my mind to seek and to search out by wisdom all that is done under heaven; it is an unhappy business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:16 - I said to myself, "I have acquired great wisdom, surpassing all who were over Jerusalem before me; and my mind has had great experience of wisdom and knowledge."
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:18 - For in much wisdom is much vexation, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:1 - I said to myself, "Come now, I will make a test of pleasure; enjoy yourself." But behold, this also was vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:3 - I searched with my mind how to cheer my body with wine--my mind still guiding me with wisdom--and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the sons of men to do under heaven during the few days of their life.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:5 - I made myself gardens and parks, and planted in them all kinds of fruit trees.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:7 - I bought male and female slaves, and had slaves who were born in my house; I had also great possessions of herds and flocks, more than any who had been before me in Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:9 - So I became great and surpassed all who were before me in Jerusalem; also my wisdom remained with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:10 - And whatever my eyes desired I did not keep from them; I kept my heart from no pleasure, for my heart found pleasure in all my toil, and this was my reward for all my toil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:11 - Then I considered all that my hands had done and the toil I had spent in doing it, and behold, all was vanity and a striving after wind, and there was nothing to be gained under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:14 - The wise man has his eyes in his head, but the fool walks in darkness; and yet I perceived that one fate comes to all of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:15 - Then I said to myself, "What befalls the fool will befall me also; why then have I been so very wise?" And I said to myself that this also is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:19 - and who knows whether he will be a wise man or a fool? Yet he will be master of all for which I toiled and used my wisdom under the sun. This also is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:21 - because sometimes a man who has toiled with wisdom and knowledge and skill must leave all to be enjoyed by a man who did not toil for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:22 - What has a man from all the toil and strain with which he toils beneath the sun?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:23 - For all his days are full of pain, and his work is a vexation; even in the night his mind does not rest. This also is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:24 - There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:9 - What gain has the worker from his toil?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:10 - I have seen the business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:11 - He has made everything beautiful in its time; also he has put eternity into man's mind, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:12 - I know that there is nothing better for them than to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:13 - also that it is God's gift to man that every one should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:17 - I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for he has appointed a time for every matter, and for every work.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:18 - I said in my heart with regard to the sons of men that God is testing them to show them that they are but beasts.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:22 - So I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should enjoy his work, for that is his lot; who can bring him to see what will be after him?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:9 - Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:14 - even though he had gone from prison to the throne or in his own kingdom had been born poor.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:16 - there was no end of all the people; he was over all of them. Yet those who come later will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a striving after wind.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:1 - Guard your steps when you go to the house of God; to draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools; for they do not know that they are doing evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:2 - Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven, and you upon earth; therefore let your words be few.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:3 - For a dream comes with much business, and a fool's voice with many words.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:4 - When you vow a vow to God, do not delay paying it; for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you vow.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:7 - For when dreams increase, empty words grow many: but do you fear God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:8 - If you see in a province the poor oppressed and justice and right violently taken away, do not be amazed at the matter; for the high official is watched by a higher, and there are yet higher ones over them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:9 - But in all, a king is an advantage to a land with cultivated fields.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:10 - He who loves money will not be satisfied with money; nor he who loves wealth, with gain: this also is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:11 - When goods increase, they increase who eat them; and what gain has their owner but to see them with his eyes?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:14 - and those riches were lost in a bad venture; and he is father of a son, but he has nothing in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:15 - As he came from his mother's womb he shall go again, naked as he came, and shall take nothing for his toil, which he may carry away in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:17 - and spent all his days in darkness and grief, in much vexation and sickness and resentment?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:18 - Behold, what I have seen to be good and to be fitting is to eat and drink and find enjoyment in all the toil with which one toils under the sun the few days of his life which God has given him, for this is his lot.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:19 - Every man also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and power to enjoy them, and to accept his lot and find enjoyment in his toil--this is the gift of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:20 - For he will not much remember the days of his life because God keeps him occupied with joy in his heart.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:4 - For it comes into vanity and goes into darkness, and in darkness its name is covered;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:12 - For who knows what is good for man while he lives the few days of his vain life, which he passes like a shadow? For who can tell man what will be after him under the sun?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:3 - Sorrow is better than laughter, for by sadness of countenance the heart is made glad.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:4 - The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools is in the house of mirth.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:9 - Be not quick to anger, for anger lodges in the bosom of fools.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:10 - Say not, "Why were the former days better than these?" For it is not from wisdom that you ask this.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:12 - For the protection of wisdom is like the protection of money; and the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:14 - In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider; God has made the one as well as the other, so that man may not find out anything that will be after him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:15 - In my vain life I have seen everything; there is a righteous man who perishes in his righteousness, and there is a wicked man who prolongs his life in his evil-doing.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:17 - Be not wicked overmuch, neither be a fool; why should you die before your time?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:18 - It is good that you should take hold of this, and from that withhold not your hand; for he who fears God shall come forth from them all.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:19 - Wisdom gives strength to the wise man more than ten rulers that are in a city.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:20 - Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and never sins.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:23 - All this I have tested by wisdom; 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, and whose hands are fetters; he who pleases God escapes her, but the sinner is taken by her.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:28 - which my mind has sought repeatedly, but I have not found. One man among a thousand I found, but a woman among all these I have not found.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:3 - go from his presence, do not delay when the matter is unpleasant, for he does whatever he pleases.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:8 - No man has power to retain the spirit, or authority over the day of death; there is no discharge from war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:9 - All this I observed while applying my mind to all that is done under the sun, while man lords it over man to his hurt.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:10 - Then I saw the wicked buried; they used to go in and out of the holy place, and were praised in the city where they had done such things. This also is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:11 - Because sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the sons of men is fully set to do evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:13 - but it will not be well with the wicked, neither will he prolong his days like a shadow, because he does not fear before God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:15 - And I commend enjoyment, for man has no good thing under the sun but to eat and drink, and enjoy himself, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of life which God gives him under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:16 - When I applied my mind to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done on earth, how neither day nor night one's eyes see sleep;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:1 - But all this I laid to heart, examining it all, how the righteous and the wise and their deeds are in the hand of God; whether it is love or hate man does not know. Everything before them is vanity,
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:2 - since one fate comes to all, to the righteous and the wicked, to the good and the evil, to the clean and the unclean, to him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good man, so is the sinner; and he who swears is as he who shuns an oath.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:3 - This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that one fate comes to all; also the hearts of men are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:6 - Their love and their hate and their envy have already perished, and they have no more for ever any share in all that is done under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:7 - Go, eat your bread with enjoyment, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already approved what you do.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:8 - Let your garments be always white; let not oil be lacking on your head.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:9 - Enjoy life with the wife whom you love, all the days of your vain life which he has given you under the sun, because that is your portion in life and in your toil at which you toil under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:10 - Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or thought or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol, to which you are going.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:12 - For man does not know his time. Like fish which are taken in an evil net, and like birds which are caught in a snare, so the sons of men are snared at an evil time, when it suddenly falls upon them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:14 - There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:15 - But there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:17 - The words of the wise heard in quiet are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:3 - Even when the fool walks on the road, he lacks sense, and he says to every one that he is a fool.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:6 - folly is set in many high places, and the rich sit in a low place.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:8 - He who digs a pit will fall into it; and a serpent will bite him who breaks through a wall.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:9 - He who quarries stones is hurt by them; and he who splits logs is endangered by them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:11 - If the serpent bites before it is charmed, there is no advantage in a charmer.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:16 - Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, and your princes feast in the morning!
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:17 - Happy are you, O land, when your king is the son of free men, and your princes feast at the proper time, for strength, and not for drunkenness!
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:18 - Through sloth the roof sinks in, and through indolence the house leaks.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:20 - Even in your thought, do not curse the king, nor in your bedchamber curse the rich; for a bird of the air will carry your voice, or some winged creature tell the matter.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:1 - Cast your bread upon the waters, for you will find it after many days.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:3 - If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves on the earth; and if a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it will lie.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:4 - He who observes the wind will not sow; and he who regards the clouds will not reap.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:5 - As you do not know how the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a woman with child, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:6 - In the morning sow your seed, and at evening withhold not your hand; for you do not know which will prosper, this or that, or whether both alike will be good.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:8 - For if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember that the days of darkness will be many. All that comes is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:9 - Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth; walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:1 - Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, when you will say, "I have no pleasure in them";
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:3 - in the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men are bent, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look through the windows are dimmed,

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 43:8 - by setting their threshold by my threshold and their doorposts beside my doorposts, with only a wall between me and them. They have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed, so I have consumed them in my anger.

Unchecked Copy BoxEze 44:7 - in admitting foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and flesh, to be in my sanctuary, profaning it, when you offer to me my food, the fat and the blood. You have broken my covenant, in addition to all your abominations.
