Then God H430 said H559, “Let Us make H6213 man H120 in Our image H6754, according to Our likeness H1823, so that they will have dominion H7287 over the fish H1710 of the sea H3220 and over the birds H5775 of the [fn]sky H8064 and over the cattle H929 and over all H3605 the earth H776 and over every H3605 creeping H7431 thing H7431 that creeps H7430 on the earth H776.”
Now the serpent H5175 was more H4480 crafty H6175 than H4480 any H3605 beast H2416 of the field H7704 which H834 Yahweh H3068 God H430 had made H6213. And he said H559 to the woman H802, “Indeed H637 H3588, has God H430 said H559, ‘[fn]You shall not eat H398 from [fn]any H3605 tree H6086 of the garden H1588'?”
“Because H3588 you have done H6213 this H2088,
Cursed H779 are you more H4480 than H4480 any H3605 of the cattle H929,
And more H4480 than H4480 every H3605 beast H2416 of the field H7704;
On your belly H1512 you will go H1980,
Then to Adam H121 He said H559, “Because H3588 you have listened H8085 to the voice H6963 of your wife H802 and have eaten H398 from the tree H6086 about which H834 I commanded H6680 you, saying H559, ‘You shall not eat H398 from it';
Cursed H779 is the ground H127 because H5668 of you;
Then Yahweh H3068 God H430 said H559, “Behold H2005, the man H120 has become H1961 like one H259 of Us [fn]to know H3045 good H2896 and evil H7451; and now H6258, lest H6435 he send H7971 forth his hand H3027 and take H3947 also H1571 from the tree H6086 of life H2416 and eat H398 and live H2421 forever H5769”—
So Esau H6215 bore H7852 a H7852 grudge H7852 against H7852 Jacob H3290 because H5921 of the blessing H1293 with which H834 his father H1 had blessed H1288 him; and Esau H6215 said H559 in his heart H3820, “The days H3117 of mourning H60 for my father H1 are near H7126; then I will kill H2026 my brother H251 Jacob H3290.”
Then Rebekah H7259 said H559 to Isaac H3327, “I am tired H6973 of [fn]living H2416 because H4480 H6440 of the daughters H1323 of Heth H2845; if H518 Jacob H3290 takes H3947 a wife H802 from the daughters H1323 of Heth H2845, like these H428, from the daughters H1323 of the land H776, what H4100 good will my life H2416 be to me?”
And in the days H3117 of the wheat H2406 harvest H7105, Reuben H7205 went H1980 and found H4672 mandrakes H1736 in the field H7704 and brought H935 them to his mother H517 Leah H3812. Then Rachel H7354 said H559 to Leah H3812, “Please H4994 give H5414 me some H4480 of your son's H1121 mandrakes H1736.”
Then Laban H3837 answered H6030 and said H559 to Jacob H3290, “The daughters H1323 are my daughters H1323, and the children H1121 are my children H1121, and the flocks H6629 are my flocks H6629, and all H3605 that you see H7200 is mine. But what H4100 can I do H6213 this day H3117 to these H428 daughters of mine H1323 or H176 to their children H1121 whom H834 they have borne H3205?
Then he [fn]had H2492 still H5750 another H312 dream H2472 and recounted H5608 it to his brothers H251 and said H559, “Behold H2009, I have [fn]had H2492 still H5750 another dream H2472; and behold H2009, the sun H8121 and the moon H3394 and eleven H259 H6240 stars H3556 were bowing H2331 down H2331 to me.”
Now it happened about three H7969 months H2320 later H4480 that it was told H5046 to Judah H3063 saying H559, “[fn]Your daughter-in-law H3618 Tamar H8559 has played H2181 the H2181 harlot H2181, and behold H2009, she is also H1571 with child H2030 by harlotry H2183.” Then Judah H3063 said H559, “Bring H3318 her out H3318 and let her be burned H8313!”
Then their father H1 Israel H3478 said H559 to them, “If H518 it must be so H3651, then H645 do H6213 this H2088: take H3947 some H4480 of the best H2173 products H2173 of the land H776 in your [fn]bags H3627, and bring H3381 them down H3381 to the man H376 as a present H4503, a little H4592 [fn]balm H6875 and a little H4592 honey H1706, [fn]aromatic H5219 gum H5219 and [fn]myrrh H3910, pistachio H992 nuts H992 and almonds H8247.
Then the days H3117 for Israel H3478 to die H4191 drew H7126 near H7126, and he called H7121 his son H1121 Joseph H3130 and said H559 to him, “Please H4994, if H518 I have found H4672 favor H2580 in your sight H5869, place H7760 now H4994 your hand H3027 under H8478 my thigh H3409 and deal H6213 with me in lovingkindness H2617 and truth H571. Please H4994 do not bury H6912 me in Egypt H4714.
Then Moses H4872 said H559 to God H430, “Behold H2009, I am about H935 to come H935 to the sons H1121 of Israel H3478, and I will say H559 to them, ‘The God H430 of your fathers H1 has sent H7971 me to you.' And they will say H559 to me, ‘What H4100 is His name H8034?' What H4100 shall I say H559 to them?”
Then Moses H4872 said H559 to Yahweh H3068, “Please H994, Lord H136, I have never H3808 been a man H376 of words H1697, neither H1571 [fn]recently H4480 H8543 nor H1571 in time H8032 past H8032, nor H1571 since H227 You have spoken H1696 to Your slave H5650; for I am one with a [fn]hard H3515 mouth H6310 and a [fn]hard H3515 tongue H3956.”
Then Moses H4872 went H1980 and returned H7725 to [fn]Jethro H3500 his father-in-law H2859 and said H559 to him, “Please H4994, let me go H1980, that I may return H7725 to my brothers H251 who H834 are in Egypt H4714 and see H7200 if they are still H5750 alive H2416.” And Jethro H3503 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Go H1980 in peace H7965.”
And Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “When you go H1980 to return H7725 to Egypt H4714, see H7200 to it that all H3605 the miraculous H4159 wonders H4159 which H834 I have put H7760 in your hand H3027, that you do H6213 them before H6440 Pharaoh H6547; but as for Me, I will [fn]harden H2388 his heart H3820 with strength H2388 so that he will not let H7971 the people H5971 go H7971.
And Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Rise H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242 and stand H3320 before H6440 Pharaoh H6547 [fn]as he comes H3318 out H3318 to the water H4325, and you shall say H559 to him, ‘Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, “Let H7971 My people H5971 go H7971, that they may serve H5647 Me.
And Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Rise H7925 up H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242 and stand H3320 before H6440 Pharaoh H6547, and you shall say H559 to him, ‘Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of the Hebrews H5680, “Let H7971 My people H5971 go H7971, that they may serve H5647 Me.
Now Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Stretch H5186 out H5186 your hand H3027 toward H5921 the sky H8064, that there may be H1961 hail H1259 on all H3605 the land H776 of Egypt H4714, on man H120 and on beast H929 and on every H3605 plant H6212 of the field H7704, throughout the land H776 of Egypt H4714.”
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Stretch H5186 out H5186 your hand H3027 over H5921 the land H776 of Egypt H4714 for the locusts H697, that they may come H5927 up H5927 on the land H776 of Egypt H4714 and eat H398 every H3605 plant H6212 of the land H776, all H3605 that the hail H1259 has left H7604 remaining H7604.”
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “One H259 more H5750 plague H5061 I will bring H935 on Pharaoh H6547 and on Egypt H4714; after H310 that he will let H7971 you go H7971 from here H2088. When he lets H7971 you go H7971, he will surely H1644 drive H1644 you out H1644 from here H2088 completely H3605.
And Moses H4872 said H559 to the people H5971, “Remember H2142 this H2088 day H3117 in which H834 you went H3318 out H3318 from Egypt H4714, from the house H1004 of [fn]slavery H5650; for by a strong H2392 hand H3027 Yahweh H3068 brought H3318 you out H3318 from this H2088 place. And nothing H3808 leavened H2557 shall be eaten H398.
Now it happened that when Pharaoh H6547 had let H7971 the people H5971 go H7971, God H430 did not guide H5148 them by the way H1870 of the land H776 of the Philistines H6430, even H3588 though H3588 it was near H7138; for God H430 said H559, “Lest H6435 the people H5971 change H5162 their minds H5162 when they see H7200 war H4421, and return H7725 to Egypt H4714.”
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Behold H2009, I will rain H4305 bread H3899 from heaven H8064 for you; and the people H5971 shall go H3318 out H3318 and gather H3950 a day's H3117 portion H1697 every day H3117, that I may test H5254 them, whether or H518 not they will walk H1980 in My [fn]law H8451.
Then Moses H4872 entreated H2470 [fn]the favor H2470 H6440 of Yahweh H3068 his God H430 and said H559, “O Yahweh H3068, why H4100 does Your anger H639 burn H2734 against Your people H5971 whom H834 You have brought H3318 out H3318 of the land H776 of Egypt H4714 with great H1419 power H3581 and with a strong H2389 hand H3027?
Then Yahweh H3068 spoke H1696 to Moses H4872, “Go H1980! Go H5927 up H5927 from here H2088, you and the people H5971 whom H834 you have brought H5927 up H5927 from the land H776 of Egypt H4714, to the land H776 of which H834 I swore H7650 to Abraham H85, to Isaac H3327, and to Jacob H3290, saying H559, ‘To your seed H2233 I will give H5414 it.'
Then Moses H4872 said H559 to Yahweh H3068, “See H7200, You say H559 to me, ‘Bring H5927 up H5927 this H2088 people H5971!' But You Yourself H859 have not let me know H3045 whom H834 You will send H7971 with me. Moreover, You have said H559, ‘I have known H3045 you by name H8034, and you have also H1571 found H4672 favor H2580 in My sight H5869.'
Then [fn]God said H559, “Behold H2009, I am going to cut H3772 a covenant H1285. Before H5048 all H3605 your people H5971 I will do H6213 wondrous H6381 deeds H6381 which H834 have not been created H1254 in all H3605 the earth H776 nor H3808 among any H3605 of the nations H1471; and all H3605 the people H5971 [fn]among H7130 whom H834 you live will see H7200 the working H4639 of Yahweh H3068, for it is a fearful H3372 thing H3372 that I am going to do H6213 with you.
Then Moses H4872 said H559 to Aaron H175 and to his sons H1121, “Boil H1310 the flesh H1320 at the doorway H6607 of the tent H168 of meeting H4150, and eat H398 it there H8033 together with the bread H3899 which H834 is in the basket H5536 of the ordination H4394 offering H4394, just H834 as I commanded H6680, saying H559, ‘Aaron H175 and his sons H1121 shall eat H398 it.'
Then Moses H4872 called H7121 to Mishael H4332 and Elzaphan H469, the sons H1121 of Aaron's H175 uncle H1730 Uzziel H5816, and said H559 to them, “Come H7126 near H7126, carry H5375 your [fn]relatives H251 away H5375 from the front H6440 of the sanctuary H6944 to the outside H4480 H2351 of the camp H4264.”
Then Moses H4872 spoke H1696 to Aaron H175 and to his remaining H3498 sons H1121, Eleazar H499 and Ithamar H385, “Take H3947 the remaining H3498 grain offering H4503 from the offerings H801 to Yahweh H3068 by H801 fire H801 and eat H398 it unleavened H4682 beside H681 the altar H4196, for it is most H6944 holy H6944.
“Tell H1696 your brother H251 Aaron H175 that he shall not enter H935 at any H3605 time H6256 into the holy H6944 place inside H4480 H1004 the veil H6532, before H413 H6440 the [fn]mercy H3727 seat H3727 which H834 is on the ark H727, so H3808 that he will not die H4191; for I will appear H7200 in the cloud H6051 over H5921 the mercy H3727 seat H3727.
Then Moses H4872 said H559 to Hobab H2246 the son H1121 of Reuel H7467 the Midianite H4084, Moses' H4872 father-in-law H2859, “We are setting H5265 out H5265 to the place H4725 of which H834 Yahweh H3068 said H559, ‘I will give H5414 it to you'; come H1980 with us and we will do H3190 you good H3190, for Yahweh H3068 has [fn]promised H1696 good H2896 concerning H5921 Israel H3478.”
Yahweh H3068 therefore said H559 to Moses H4872, “Gather H622 for Me seventy H7657 men H376 from the elders H2205 of Israel H3478, whom H834 you know H3045 to be the elders H2205 of the people H5971 and their officers H7860, and take H3947 them to the tent H168 of meeting H4150, and let them take H3320 their stand H3320 there H8033 with you.
So Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Aaron H175, “You and your sons H1121 and your father's H1 household H1004 with you shall bear H5375 the guilt H5771 [fn]in connection with the sanctuary H4720, and you and your sons H1121 with you shall bear H5375 the guilt H5771 [fn]in connection with your priesthood H3550.
Then Balak's H1111 anger H639 burned H2734 against H413 Balaam H1109, and he struck H5606 his [fn]hands H3709 together H5606; and Balak H1111 said H559 to Balaam H1109, “I called H7121 you to curse H6895 my enemies H340, but behold H2009, you have blessed H1288 them repeatedly H1288 these H2088 three H7969 times H6471!
“And Yahweh H3068 heard H8085 the voice H6963 of your words H1697 when you spoke H1696 to me, and Yahweh H3068 said H559 to me, ‘I have heard H8085 the voice H6963 of the words H1697 of this H2088 people H5971 which H834 they have spoken H1696 to you. They have done H3190 well H3190 in all H3605 that they have spoken H1696.
Then Moses H4872 called H7121 to Joshua H3091 and said H559 to him in the sight H5869 of all H3605 Israel H3478, “Be strong H2388 and courageous H553, for you shall go H935 with this H2088 people H5971 into the land H776 which H834 Yahweh H3068 has sworn H7650 to their fathers H1 to give H5414 them, and you shall give H5157 it to them as H5157 an H5157 inheritance H5157.
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Moses H4872, “Behold H2005, [fn]the time H3117 for you to die H4191 is near H7126; call H7121 Joshua H3091 and present H3320 yourselves at the tent H168 of meeting H4150, that I may commission H6680 him.” So Moses H4872 and Joshua H3091 went H1980 and presented H3320 themselves at the tent H168 of meeting H4150.
“Yahweh H3068 came H935 from Sinai H5514,
And He [fn]dawned H2224 on them from Seir H8165;
He shone H3313 forth H3313 from Mount H2022 Paran H6290,
And He came H857 from the [fn]midst of ten H7233 thousand H7233 holy H6944 ones H6944;
At His right H3225 hand H3225 there was [fn]flashing H799 lightning H799 for them.
Now it happened H1961 when Joshua H3091 was by Jericho H3405, that he lifted H5375 up H5375 his eyes H5869 and looked H7200, and behold H2009, a man H376 was standing H5975 opposite H5048 him with his sword H2719 drawn H8025 in his hand H3027, and Joshua H3091 went H1980 to him and said H559 to him, “Are you for us or H518 for our adversaries H6862?”
Now Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Joshua H3091, “Do not fear H3372 or be dismayed H2865. Take H3947 all H3605 the people H5971 of war H4421 with you and arise H6965, go H5927 up H5927 to Ai H5857; see H7200, I have given H5414 into your hand H3027 the king H4428 of Ai H5857, his people H5971, his city H5892, and his land H776.
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Joshua H3091, “Do not be H3372 afraid H3372 because H4480 H6440 of them, for tomorrow H4279 at this H2088 time H6256 I will give H5414 all H3605 of them over, slain H2491, before H6440 Israel H3478; you shall hamstring H6131 their horses H5483 and burn H8313 their chariots H4818 with fire H784.”
Then the sons H1121 of Judah H3063 drew H5066 near H5066 to Joshua H3091 in Gilgal H1537, and Caleb H3612 the son H1121 of Jephunneh H3312 the Kenizzite H7074 said H559 to him, “You know H3045 the word H1697 which H834 Yahweh H3068 spoke H1696 to Moses H4872 the man H376 of God H430 concerning H182 [fn]you and me in Kadesh-barnea H6947.
“Now behold H2009, today H3117 I am going H1980 the way H1870 of all H3605 the earth H776, and you know H3045 in all H3605 your hearts H3824 and in all H3605 your souls H5315 that not one H259 word H1697 of all H3605 the good H2896 words H1697 which H834 Yahweh H3068 your God H430 spoke H1696 concerning H5921 you has failed H5307; all H3605 have come H935 to pass H935 for you; not one word H259 of them has failed H5307.
Then the angel H4397 of Yahweh H3068 came H5927 up H5927 from Gilgal H1537 to Bochim H1066. And he said H559, “I brought H5927 you up H5927 out of Egypt H4714 and led H935 you into the land H776 which H834 I have sworn H7650 to your fathers H1; and I said H559, ‘I will never H3808 H5769 break H6565 My covenant H1285 with you,
Now it happened H1961 on the same H1931 night H3915 that Yahweh H3068 said H559 to him, “Take H3947 your father's H1 bull H6499 [fn]and a second H8145 bull H6499 seven H7651 years H8141 old, and pull H2040 down H2040 the altar H4196 of Baal H1168 which H834 belongs to your father H1, and cut H3772 down H3772 the [fn]Asherah H842 that is beside H5921 it,
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Gideon H1439, “The people H5971 are still H5750 too many H7227; bring H3381 them down H3381 to the water H4325, and I will test H6884 them for you there H8033. And it will be that he of whom H834 I say H559 to you, ‘This H2088 one H2088 shall go H1980 with you,' he shall go H1980 with you; but everyone H3605 of whom H834 I say H559 to you, ‘This H2088 one H2088 shall not go H1980 with you,' he shall not go H1980.”
Now it happened that when Gideon H1439 heard H8085 the account H4557 of the dream H2472 and its interpretation H7667, he bowed H2331 in H2331 worship H2331. Then he returned H7725 to the camp H4264 of Israel H3478 and said H559, “Arise H6965, for Yahweh H3068 has given H5414 the camp H4264 of Midian H4080 into your hands H3027.”
“What H4100 is sweeter H4966 than H4480 honey H1706?
And what H4100 is stronger H5794 than H4480 a lion H738?”
And he said H559 to them,
Then Delilah H1807 said H559 to Samson H8123, “Up to now H2008 you have deceived H8524 me and told H1696 me lies H3577; tell H5046 me [fn]how H4100 you may be bound H631.” And he said H559 to her, “If H518 you weave H707 the seven H7651 locks H4253 of my head H7218 with the web H4545 [fn][and fasten H8628 it with a pin H3489, then I will become weak H2470 and be like any H259 other man H120.”
Then the sons H1121 of Israel H3478 arose H6965, went H5927 up H5927 to Bethel H1008, and asked H7592 of God H430 and said H559, “Who H4310 shall go H5927 up H5927 for us to begin H8462 the battle H4421 against H5973 the sons H1121 of Benjamin H1144?” Then Yahweh H3068 said H559, “Judah H3063 shall begin H8462 it.”
At mealtime H6256 H400 Boaz H1162 said H559 to her, “[fn]Come H5066 here H1988, that you may eat H398 of the bread H3899 and dip H2881 your piece H6595 of H6595 bread H6595 in the vinegar H2558.” So she sat H3427 beside H4480 H6654 the reapers H7114; and he [fn]served H6642 her roasted H7039 grain H7039, and she ate H398 and was H7646 satisfied H7646 and had H3498 some left H3498.
Now Boaz H1162 went H5927 up H5927 to the gate H8179 and sat H3427 down H3427 there H8033, and behold H2009, the kinsman redeemer H1350 of whom H834 Boaz H1162 spoke H1696 was passing H5674 by H5674, so he said H559, “Turn H5493 aside H5493, [fn]my fellow H6423 H492, sit H3427 down H3427 here H6311.” And he turned H5493 aside H5493 and sat H3427 down H3427.
Then Samuel H8050 spoke H559 to all H3605 the house H1004 of Israel H3478, saying H559, “If H518 you are to return H7725 to Yahweh H3068 with all H3605 your heart H3824, then remove H5493 the foreign H5236 gods H430 and the Ashtaroth H6252 from among H8432 you and set H3559 your hearts H3824 toward Yahweh H3068 and serve H5647 Him alone H905; and He will deliver H5337 you from the hand H3027 of the Philistines H6430.”
Now the day H3117 came H1961 that Jonathan H3083, the son H1121 of Saul H7586, said H559 to the young H5288 man H5288 who was carrying H5375 his armor H3627, “Come H1980 and let us cross H5674 over H5674 to the Philistines' H6430 garrison H4673 that is on the other H5676 side H5676.” But he did not tell H5046 his father H1.
Then Jonathan H3083 said H559 to the young H5288 man H5288 who was carrying H5375 his armor H3627, “Come H1980 and let us cross H5674 over H5674 to the garrison H4673 of these H428 uncircumcised H6189; perhaps H194 Yahweh H3068 will work H6213 for us, for Yahweh H3068 is not restrained H4622 to save H3467 by many H7227 or H176 by few H4592.”
Then Saul H7586 said H559, “Let us go H3381 down H3381 after H310 the Philistines H6430 by night H3915 and take H962 spoil H962 among them until H5704 the morning H1242 light H216, and let us not leave H7604 a man H376 of them.” And they said H559, “Do H6213 whatever H3605 seems good H2896 in your eyes H5869.” So the priest H3548 said H559, “Let us draw H7126 near H7126 to God H430 here H1988.”
Then Saul H7586 said H559 to Samuel H8050, “I did [fn]obey H8085 the voice H6963 of Yahweh H3068 and went H1980 on the way H1870 on which H834 Yahweh H3068 sent H7971 me and have brought H935 back Agag H90 the king H4428 of Amalek H6002 and have devoted H2763 the Amalekites H6002 to destruction H2763.
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Samuel H8050, “How H4970 long H5704 will you be grieving H56 over H413 Saul H7586? I have rejected H3988 him from being H4427 king H4427 over H5921 Israel H3478. Fill H4390 your horn H7161 with oil H8081 and go H1980; I will send H7971 you to Jesse H3448 the Bethlehemite H1022, for I see H7200 among his sons H1121 a king H4428 for Me.”
Then Saul H7586 became H2734 very H3966 angry H2734, for this H2088 saying H1697 was [fn]displeasing H7489 in his eyes H5869; and he said H559, “They have ascribed H5414 to David H1732 ten H7233 thousands H7233, but to me they have ascribed H5414 thousands H505. Now what more H5750 can he have but the kingdom H4410?”
Then Jonathan H3083 said H559 to David H1732, “Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478, be witness! When H3588 I have examined H2713 my father H1 about this time H6256 tomorrow H4279, or the third H7992 day, behold H2009, if there is good H2895 feeling toward H413 David H1732, shall I not then H227 send H7971 to you and reveal H1540 it in your ear H241?
Then Saul's H7586 anger H639 burned H2734 against Jonathan H3083, and he said H559 to him, “You son H1121 of a perverse H5753, rebellious H4780 woman! Do I not know H3045 that you are choosing H977 the son H1121 of Jesse H3448 to your own shame H1322 and to the shame H1322 of your mother's H517 nakedness H6172?
Then David H1732 heard H8085 that Nabal H5037 was dead H4191, so he said H559, “Blessed H1288 be Yahweh H3068, who H834 has pleaded H7378 the cause H7379 of my reproach H2781 from the hand H3027 of Nabal H5037 and has kept H2820 back H2820 His servant H5650 from evil H7451. Yahweh H3068 has also returned H7725 the evil H7451 of Nabal H5037 on his own head H7218.” Then David H1732 sent H7971 [fn]a proposal H1696 to Abigail H26, to take H3947 her as his wife H802.
Then David H1732 answered H6030 and said H559 to Ahimelech H288 the Hittite H2850 and to Abishai H52 the son H1121 of Zeruiah H6870, Joab's H3097 brother H251, saying H559, “Who H4310 will go H3381 down H3381 with me to Saul H7586 in the camp H4264?” And Abishai H52 said H559, “I will go H3381 down H3381 with you.”
Then Saul H7586 said H559, “I have sinned H2398. Return H7725, my son H1121 David H1732, for I will not harm H7489 you again H5750 because H8478 H834 my life H5315 was H3365 precious H3365 in your sight H5869 this H2088 day H3117. Behold H2009, I have played H5528 the H5528 fool H5528 and have committed H7686 a H7686 serious H7235 H3966 error H7686.”
Then David H1732 said H559 in his heart H3820, “Now H6258 I will be swept H5595 away H5595 one H259 day H3117 by the hand H3027 of Saul H7586. There H369 is H369 nothing H369 better H2896 for me than H3588 that I should utterly escape H4422 into the land H776 of the Philistines H6430. Saul H7586 then will despair H2976 of searching H1245 for me anymore H5750 in all H3605 the territory H1366 of Israel H3478, and I will escape H4422 from his hand H3027.”
Then David H1732 said H559 to Achish H397, “If H518 now H4994 I have found H4672 favor H2580 in your sight H5869, let them give H5414 me a place H4725 in one H259 of the cities H5892 in the country H7704, that I may live H3427 there H8033; for why H4100 should your servant H5650 live H3427 in the royal H4467 city H5892 with you?”
Now it happened H1961 in those H1992 days H3117 that the Philistines H6430 gathered H6908 their armed camps H4264 for war H6635, to fight H3898 against Israel H3478. And Achish H397 said H559 to David H1732, “Know H3045 assuredly H3045 that you will go H3318 out H3318 with me in the camp H4264, you and your men H376.”
Then Saul H7586 disguised H2664 himself and put H3847 on H3847 other H312 clothes H899, and he went H1980, he and two H8147 men H376 with him, and they came H935 to the woman H802 by night H3915; and he said H559, “Divine H7080 for me, please H4994, and bring H5927 up H5927 for me whom H834 I shall say H559 to you.”
Then Samuel H8050 said H559 to Saul H7586, “Why H4100 have you disturbed H7264 me by bringing H5927 me up H5927?” And Saul H7586 answered H6030, “I am H6887 greatly H3966 distressed H6887, for the Philistines H6430 are waging H3898 war H3898 against me, and God H430 has turned H5493 away H5493 from me and no H3808 longer H5750 answers H6030 me, either H1571 by the hand H3027 of the prophets H5030 or H1571 by dreams H2472; therefore I have called H7121 you, that you may make H3045 known H3045 to me what H4100 I should do H6213.”
Then Achish H397 called H7121 David H1732 and said H559 to him, “As Yahweh H3068 lives H2416, you have been upright H3477, and your going H3318 out H3318 and your coming H935 in with me in the camp H4264 are pleasing H2896 in my sight H5869; for I have not found H4672 evil H7451 in you from the day H3117 of your coming H935 to me to this H2088 day H3117. Nevertheless, you are not pleasing H2896 in the sight H5869 of the lords H5633.
Now it happened H1961 afterwards H310 H3651 that David H1732 asked H7592 of Yahweh H3068, saying H559, “Shall I go H5927 up H5927 to one H259 of the cities H5892 of Judah H3063?” And Yahweh H3068 said H559 to him, “Go H5927 up H5927.” So David H1732 said H559, “Where H575 shall I go H5927 up H5927?” And He said H559, “To Hebron H2275.”
But David H1732 returned H7725 to bless H1288 his household H1004, and Michal H4324 the daughter H1323 of Saul H7586 came H3318 out H3318 to meet H7122 David H1732 and said H559, “How H4100 the king H4428 of Israel H3478 has glorified H3513 himself today H3117! He uncovered H1540 himself today H3117 in the eyes H5869 of his servants' H5650 maids H519 as one H259 of the worthless H7386 ones H7386 shamelessly H1540 uncovers H1540 himself!”
So Absalom H53 her brother H251 said H559 to her, “Has Amnon H550 your brother H251 been H1961 with you? But now H6258 keep H2790 silent H2790, my sister H269, he is your brother H251; do not take H7896 this H2088 matter H1697 to heart H3820.” So Tamar H8559 remained H3427 and was H8074 desolate H8074 in her brother H251 Absalom's H53 house H1004.
And Ahimaaz H290 called H7121 and said H559 to the king H4428, “Peace H7965!” And he prostrated H2331 himself before the king H4428 with his [fn]face H639 to the ground H776. And he said H559, “Blessed H1288 is Yahweh H3068 your God H430, who H834 has delivered H5462 up H5462 the men H376 who H834 lifted H5375 their hands H3027 against my lord H113 the king H4428.”
[fn]Then the king H4428 trembled H7264 and went H5927 up H5927 to the chamber H5944 over H5944 the gate H8179 and wept H1058. And thus H3541 he said H559 as he walked H1980, “O my son H1121 Absalom H53, my son H1121, my son H1121 Absalom H53! Would H4310 H5414 I had died H4191 instead H8478 of H8478 you, O Absalom H53, my son H1121, my son H1121!”
Now a vile H1100 fellow H376 happened H7122 to be there H8033 whose name H8034 was Sheba H7652, the son H1121 of Bichri H1075, a Benjamite H376 H3228; and he blew H8628 the trumpet H7782 and said H559,
“We have H369 no H369 portion H2506 in David H1732,
Nor H3808 do we have inheritance H5159 in the son H1121 of Jesse H3448;
And there was a famine H7458 in the days H3117 of David H1732 for three H7969 years H8141, year H8141 after H310 year H8141; and David H1732 sought H1245 the presence H6440 of Yahweh H3068. And Yahweh H3068 said H559, “It is for Saul H7586 and his bloody H1818 house H1004, because H5921 H834 he put H4191 the Gibeonites H1393 to H4191 death H4191.”
Then David's H1732 heart H3820 struck H5221 him after H310 H3651 he had counted H5608 the people H5971. So David H1732 said H559 to Yahweh H3068, “I have sinned H2398 greatly H3966 in what H834 I have done H6213. But now H6258, O Yahweh H3068, please H4994 [fn]take H5674 away H5674 the iniquity H5771 of Your slave H5650, for I have acted H5528 very H3966 foolishly H5528.”
Then to Abiathar H54 the priest H3548 the king H4428 said H559, “Go H1980 to Anathoth H6068 to your own field H7704, for you [fn]deserve H376 to die H4194; but I will not put H4191 you to H4191 death H4191 at this H2088 time H3117, because H3588 you carried H5375 the ark H727 of Lord H136 Yahweh H3068 before H6440 my father H1 David H1732, and because H3588 you were afflicted H6031 in everything H3605 with which H834 my father H1 was afflicted H6031.”
Then the prophet H5030, who H834 brought H7725 him back H7725 from the way H1870, heard H8085 it and said H559, “It is the man H376 of God H430, who H834 rebelled H4784 against the [fn]command H6310 of Yahweh H3068; therefore Yahweh H3068 has given H5414 him to the lion H738, which has mauled H7665 him and put H4191 him to H4191 death H4191, according to the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068 which H834 He spoke H1696 to him.”
Now Elijah H452 the Tishbite H8664, who was of [fn]the settlers H8453 of Gilead H1568, said H559 to Ahab H256, “As Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478, lives H2416, before H6440 whom H834 I stand H5975, surely H518 there shall be neither H518 dew H2919 nor rain H4306 these H428 years H8141, except H3588 H518 by my word H1697.”
So He said H559, “Go H3318 forth H3318 and stand H5975 on the mountain H2022 before H6440 Yahweh H3068.” And behold H2009, Yahweh H3068 was passing H5674 by H5674! And a great H1419 and strong H2389 wind H7307 was tearing H6561 up the mountains H2022 and breaking H7665 in H7665 pieces H7665 the rocks H5553 before H6440 Yahweh H3068; but Yahweh H3068 was not in the wind H7307. And after H310 the wind H7307 an earthquake H7494, but Yahweh H3068 was not in the earthquake H7494.
Then the king H4428 of Israel H3478 called H7121 all H3605 the elders H2205 of the land H776 and said H559, “Please H4994 know H3045 and see H7200 how H3588 this H2088 man is looking H1245 for H1245 trouble H7451; for he sent H7971 to me for my wives H802 and my children H1121 and my silver H3701 and my gold H2091, and I withheld H4513 nothing from him.”
Now behold H2009, a prophet H5030 approached H5066 Ahab H256 king H4428 of Israel H3478 and said H559, “Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, ‘Have you seen H7200 all H3605 this H2088 great H1419 multitude H1995? Behold H2009, I will deliver H5414 them into your hand H3027 today H3117, and you shall know H3045 that I am Yahweh H3068.'”
Then the prophet H5030 came H5066 near H5066 to the king H4428 of Israel H3478 and said H559 to him, “Go H1980, strengthen H2388 yourself and know H3045 and see H7200 what H834 you have to do H6213; for at the turn H8666 of the year H8141 the king H4428 of Aram H758 will come H5927 up H5927 against H5921 you.”
Then his servants H5650 said H559 to him, “Behold H2009 now H4994, we have heard H8085 that the kings H4428 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 are kings H4428 of lovingkindness H2617, please H4994 let us put H7760 sackcloth H8242 on our loins H4975 and ropes H2256 on our heads H7218, and go H3318 out H3318 to the king H4428 of Israel H3478; perhaps H194 he will preserve H2421 your [fn]life H5315.”
Now it happened that when Jezebel H348 heard H8085 that Naboth H5022 had been stoned H5619 and was dead H4191, Jezebel H348 said H559 to Ahab H256, “Arise H6965, take H3423 possession H3423 of the vineyard H3754 of Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158, which H834 he refused H3985 to give H5414 you for money H3701; for Naboth H5022 is not alive H2416, but dead H4191.”
Then he came H935 to the king H4428, and the king H4428 said H559 to him, “Micaiah H4321, shall we go H1980 to Ramoth-gilead H7433 to battle H4421, or H518 shall we refrain H2308?” And he said H559 to him, “Go H5927 up H5927 and succeed H6743, and Yahweh H3068 will give H5414 it into the hand H3027 of the king H4428.”
Now a certain man H376 drew H4900 his bow H7198 at random H8537 and struck H5221 the king H4428 of Israel H3478 [fn]in a joint H1694 of the armor H8302. So he said H559 to the driver H7395 of H7395 his chariot H7395, “Turn H2015 [fn]around H3027 and take H3318 me out H3318 of the [fn]fight H4264, for I am H2470 severely H2470 wounded H2470.”
Then the king sent H7971 to him a commander H8269 of fifty H2572 with his fifty H2572. And he went H5927 up H5927 to him, and behold H2009, he was sitting H3427 on the top H7218 of the hill H2022. And he said H1696 to him, “O man H376 of God H430, the king H4428 says H1696, ‘Come H3381 down H3381.'”
So he again H7725 sent H7971 the commander H8269 of a third H7992 fifty H2572 with his fifty H2572. Then the third H7992 commander H8269 of fifty H2572 went H5927 up H5927 and came H935 and bowed H3766 down H3766 on his knees H1290 before H5048 Elijah H452, and he begged H2603 him and said H1696 to him, “O man H376 of God H430, please H4994 let my life H5315 and the lives H5315 of these H428 fifty H2572 servants H5650 of yours be H3365 precious H3365 in your sight H5869.
Now Elisha H477 said H559 to the king H4428 of Israel H3478, “What H4100 do I have to do with you? Go H1980 to the prophets H5030 of your father H1 and to the prophets H5030 of your mother H517.” And the king H4428 of Israel H3478 said H559 to him, “No H408, for Yahweh H3068 has called H7121 these H428 three H7969 kings H4428 together to give H5414 them into the hand H3027 of Moab H4124.”
Then he said H559 to Gehazi H1522, “Gird H2296 up your loins H4975 and take H3947 my staff H4938 in your hand H3027, and go H1980; if H3588 you meet H4672 anyone H376, do not [fn]greet H1288 him, and if H3588 anyone H376 [fn]greets H1288 you, do not answer H6030 him; and lay H7760 my staff H4938 on the boy's H5288 face H6440.”
Now Elisha H477 returned H7725 to Gilgal H1537, and there was a famine H7458 in the land H776. [fn]As the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030 were sitting H3427 before H6440 him, he said H559 to his young H5288 man H5288, “Put H8239 on the large H1419 pot H5518 and boil H1310 stew H5138 for the sons H1121 of the prophets H5030.”
Now a man H376 came H935 from Baal-shalishah H1190, and brought H935 the man H376 of God H430 bread H3899 of the first H1061 fruits H1061, twenty H6242 loaves H3899 of barley H8184 and fresh H3759 ears H3759 of grain H3759 in his sack H6861. And he said H559, “Give H5414 them to the people H5971 that they may eat H398.”
Now it happened that when the king H4428 of Israel H3478 read H7121 the letter H5612, he tore H7167 his clothes H899 and said H559, “Am I God H430, to put H4191 to H4191 death H4191 and to make H2421 alive H2421, that this H2088 man is sending H7971 word to me to cure H622 a man H376 of his leprosy H6883? But know H3045 now H4994, and see H7200 how H3588 he is seeking H579 [fn]a H579 quarrel H579 against me.”
Then he returned H7725 to the man H376 of God H430 [fn]with all H3605 his camp H4264, and came H935 and stood H5975 before H6440 him, and said H559, “Behold H2009 now H4994, I know H3045 that there H369 is H369 no H369 God H430 in all H3605 the earth H776, but in Israel H3478; so now H6258 please H4994 take H3947 a blessing H1293 from your servant H5650.”
Then Gehazi H1522, the young H5288 man H5288 of Elisha H477 the man H376 of God H430, said H559 to himself, “Behold H2009, my master H113 has spared H2820 this H2088 Naaman H5283 the Aramean H761, [fn]by not receiving H3947 from his hands H3027 what H834 he brought H935. As Yahweh H3068 lives H2416, I will run H7323 after H310 him and take H3947 something H3972 from him.”
Then he said H559 to him, “Did not my heart H3820 go H1980 with you, when H834 the man H376 turned H2015 from his chariot H4818 to meet H7122 you? Is it a time H6256 to receive H3947 money H3701 and to receive H3947 clothes H899 and olive H2132 groves H2132 and vineyards H3754 and sheep H6629 and oxen H1241 and male H5650 and female H8198 slaves H8198?
Then the attendant H8334 of the man H376 of God H430 arose H6965 early H7925 and went H3318 out H3318, and behold H2009, a military H2428 force H2428 with horses H5483 and chariots H7393 was all H5437 around H5437 the city H5892. And his young H5288 man H5288 said H559 to him, “Alas H162, my master H113! [fn]What H351 shall we do H6213?”
Now it happened that when they had come H935 into Samaria H8111, Elisha H477 said H559, “O Yahweh H3068, open H6491 the eyes H5869 of these H428 men, that they may see H7200.” So Yahweh H3068 opened H6491 their eyes H5869 and they saw H7200; and behold H2009, they were in the midst H8432 of Samaria H8111.
Now Elisha H477 was sitting H3427 in his house H1004, and the elders H2205 were sitting H3427 with him. And the king sent H7971 a man H376 from his presence H6440; but before H2962 the messenger H4397 came H935 to him, he said H559 to the elders H2205, “Do you see H7200 how H3588 this H2088 son H1121 of a murderer H7523 has sent H7971 to take H5493 away H5493 my head H7218? Look H7200, when the messenger H4397 comes H935, shut H5462 the door H1817 and [fn]hold H3905 the door H1817 shut H3905 against him. Is not the sound H6963 of his master's H113 feet H7272 behind H310 him?”
Then Elisha H477 said H559, “Listen H8085 to the word H1697 of Yahweh H3068; thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, ‘About this time H6256 tomorrow H4279 a [fn]seah H5429 of fine H5560 flour H5560 will be sold for a [fn]shekel H8255, and two [fn]seahs H5429 of barley H8184 for a [fn]shekel H8255, in the gate H8179 of Samaria H8111.'”
Then they said H559 to one H376 another H7453, “We are not doing H6213 right H3651. This H2088 day H3117 is a day H3117 of good H1309 news H1309, but we are keeping H2814 silent H2814; if we wait H2442 until H5704 morning H1242 light H216, punishment H5771 will [fn]overtake H4672 us. So now H6258, come H1980, let us go H935 and tell H5046 the king's H4428 household H1004.”
Now the watchman H6822 was standing H5975 on the tower H4026 in Jezreel H3157 and he saw H7200 the [fn]company H8229 of Jehu H3058 as he came H935, and said H559, “I see H7200 a [fn]company H8229.” And Joram H3088 said H559, “Take H3947 a horseman H7395 and send H7971 him to meet H7122 them and let him say H559, ‘Is it peace H7965?'”
Then [fn]Joram H3088 said H559, “[fn]Get H631 ready H631.” And they made H631 his chariot H7393 ready H631. [fn]Joram H3088 king H4428 of Israel H3478 and Ahaziah H274 king H4428 of Judah H3063 went H3318 out H3318, each H376 in his chariot H7393, and they went H3318 out H3318 to meet H7122 Jehu H3058 and found H4672 him in the [fn]property H2513 of Naboth H5022 the Jezreelite H3158.
And Ahaziah H274 the king H4428 of Judah H3063 saw H7200 this and fled H5127 by the way H1870 of the garden H1588 house H1004. And Jehu H3058 pursued H7291 him and said H559, “Strike H5221 him down too H1571, in the chariot H4818.” So they struck him down at the ascent H4608 of Gur H1483, which H834 is at Ibleam H2991. But he fled H5127 to Megiddo H4023 and died H4191 there H8033.
Then he went H1980 from there H8033 and found H4672 Jehonadab H3082 the son H1121 of Rechab H7394 coming to meet H7122 him; and he [fn]blessed H1288 him and said H559 to him, “Is your heart H3824 right H3477, as my heart H3824 is with your heart H3824?” And Jehonadab H3082 [fn]answered H559, “It is.” Jehu said, “If it is, give H5414 me your hand H3027.” And he gave H5414 him his hand H3027, and he took H5927 him up H5927 to him into the chariot H4818.
Now Jehu H3058 had placed H7760 for himself eighty H8084 men H376 outside H2351, and he had said H559, “The one H376 who H834 permits any of H4480 the men H376 whom H834 I cause to come H935 into your hands H3027 to escape H4422, [fn]shall give up his life H5315 in exchange H8478.”
Now it happened H1961 that as soon as he had finished H3615 offering H6213 the burnt H5930 offering H5930, Jehu H3058 said H559 to the [fn]guard H7323 and to the royal H7991 officers H7991, “Come H935 in H935, strike H5221 them down H5221; let none H376 H408 come H3318 out H3318.” And they struck H5221 them down H5221 with the edge H6310 of the sword H2719; and the [fn]guard H7323 and the royal H7991 officers H7991 threw H7993 them out H7993 and went H1980 to the [fn]inner H5892 room H5892 of the house H1004 of Baal H1168.
Then Jehoash H3060 said H559 to the priests H3548, “All H3605 the money H3701 of the sacred H6944 things H6944 which H834 is brought H935 into the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068, both the money H3701 for each H376 [fn]numbered H5674 man H376—the money H3701 from each person's H5315 assessment H6187 in the census—and all H3605 the money H3701 which H834 any H376 man's H376 heart H3820 prompts H5927 H5921 him to bring H935 into the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068,
Now Elisha H477 [fn]became H2470 sick H2470 with the illness H2483 of which H834 he was to die H4191. So Joash H3060 the king H4428 of Israel H3478 came H3381 down H3381 to him and wept H1058 over H5921 [fn]him and said H559, “My father H1, my father H1, the chariots H7393 of Israel H3478 and its horsemen H6571!”
Then Eliakim H471 the son H1121 of Hilkiah H2518, and Shebnah H7644 and Joah H3098, said H559 to Rabshakeh H7262, “Speak H1696 now H4994 to your servants H5650 in Aramaic H762, for we [fn]understand H8085 it; and do not speak H1696 with us in [fn]Judean H3066 in the hearing H241 of the people H5971 who H834 are on the wall H2346.”
In those H1992 days H3117 Hezekiah H2396 became H2470 ill H2470 to the point H4191 of death H4191. And Isaiah H3470 the prophet H5030 the son H1121 of Amoz H531 came H935 to him and said H559 to him, “Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, ‘Set H6680 your house H1004 in H6680 order H6680, for you shall die H4191 and not live H2421.'”
“We are yours, O David H1732,
And with you, O son H1121 of Jesse H3448!
Peace H7965, peace H7965 to you,
And peace H7965 to him who helps H5826 you;
Indeed H3588, your God H430 helps H5826 you!”
Then David H1732 received H6901 them and made H5414 them chiefs H7218 of the band H1416.
Then David H1732 said H559 to his son H1121 Solomon H8010, “Be strong H2388 and courageous H553, and act H6213; do not fear H3372 nor H408 be dismayed H2865, for Yahweh H3068 God H430, my God H430, is with you. He will not fail H7503 you nor H3808 forsake H5800 you until H5704 all H3605 the work H4399 for the service H5656 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 is completed H3615.
Then King H4428 David H1732 said H559 to the entire H3605 assembly H6951, “My son H1121 Solomon H8010, whom alone H259 God H430 has chosen H977, is still young H5288 and inexperienced H7390 and the work H4399 is great H1419; for the [fn]temple H1002 is not for man H120, but for Yahweh H3068 God H430.
Then David H1732 said H559 to all H3605 the assembly H6951, “Now H4994 bless H1288 Yahweh H3068 your God H430.” And all H3605 the assembly H6951 blessed H1288 Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of their fathers H1, and bowed H6915 low H6915 and prostrated H2331 themselves to Yahweh H3068 and to the king H4428.
Then Solomon H8010 brought H5927 Pharaoh's H6547 daughter H1323 up H5927 from the city H5892 of David H1732 to the house H1004 which H834 he had built H1129 for her, for he said H559, “My wife H802 shall not live H3427 in the house H1004 of David H1732 king H4428 of Israel H3478, because H3588 [fn]the places H1992 are holy H6944 where H834 the ark H727 of Yahweh H3068 has entered H935.”
Now at that time H6256 Hanani H2607 the seer H7203 came H935 to Asa H609 king H4428 of Judah H3063 and said H559 to him, “Because you have leaned H8172 on the king H4428 of Aram H758 and have not leaned H8172 on Yahweh H3068 your God H430, therefore H5921 H3651 the military H2428 force H2428 of the king H4428 of Aram H758 has escaped H4422 out of your hand H3027.
And they rose H7925 early H7925 in the morning H1242 and went H3318 out H3318 to the wilderness H4057 of Tekoa H8620; and when they went H3318 out H3318, Jehoshaphat H3092 stood H5975 and said H559, “Listen H8085 to me, O Judah H3063 and inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389, establish H539 your faith H539 in Yahweh H3068 your God H430 and you will be established H539. Establish H539 your faith H539 in His prophets H5030 and succeed H6743.”
Now the Spirit H7307 of God H430 clothed H3847 Zechariah H2148 the son H1121 of Jehoiada H3077 the priest H3548; and he stood H5975 above H4480 H5921 the people H5971 and said H559 to them, “Thus H3541 says H559 God H430, ‘Why H4100 do you trespass H5674 against the commandments H4687 of Yahweh H3068 and do not succeed H6743? Because H3588 you have forsaken H5800 Yahweh H3068, He has also forsaken H5800 you.'”
Then Hezekiah H2396 answered H6030 and said H559, “Now H6258 that you have [fn]become ordained H4390 H3027 to Yahweh H3068, approach H5066 and bring H935 sacrifices H2077 and thank H8426 offerings H8426 to the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068.” And the assembly H6951 brought H935 sacrifices H2077 and thank H8426 offerings H8426, and all H3605 those who were willing H5081 of heart H3820 brought burnt H5930 offerings H5930.
So Hilkiah H2518 and those whom H834 the king H4428 [fn]had told went H1980 to Huldah H2468 the prophetess H5031, the wife H802 of Shallum H7967 the son H1121 of [fn]Tokhath H8445, the son H1121 of Hasrah H2641, keeper H8104 of the wardrobe H899 (now she lived H3427 in Jerusalem H3389 in the Second H4932 Quarter); and they spoke H1696 to her regarding this H2088.
Now I entered H935 the house H1004 of Shemaiah H8098 the son H1121 of Delaiah H1806, son H1121 of Mehetabel H4105, who H1931 was [fn]confined H6113 at home, and he said H559, “Let us meet H3259 together H3259 in the house H1004 of God H430, within H8432 the temple H1964, and let us close H5462 the doors H1817 of the temple H1964, for they are coming H935 to kill H2026 you, and they are coming H935 to kill H2026 you at night H3915.”
Then Nehemiah H5166, who H1931 was the [fn]governor H8660, and Ezra H5830 the priest H3548 and scribe H5608, and the Levites H3881, who provided H995 the people H5971 with understanding H995, said H559 to all H3605 the people H5971, “This H1931 day H3117 is holy H6918 to Yahweh H3068 your God H430; do not mourn H56 or weep H1058.” For all H3605 the people H5971 were weeping H1058 when they heard H8085 the words H1697 of the law H8451.
“You alone H905 are Yahweh H3068.
You have made H6213 the heavens H8064,
The heaven H8064 of heavens H8064 with all H3605 their host H6635,
The earth H776 and all H3605 that is on it,
The seas H3220 and all H3605 that is in them.
You give H2421 life H2421 to all H3605 of them
And the heavenly H8064 host H6635 bows H2331 down H2331 to You.
On the seventh H7637 day H3117, when the heart H3820 of the king H4428 was merry H2895 with wine H3196, he said H559 for Mehuman H4104, Biztha H968, Harbona H2726, Bigtha H903, Abagtha H5, Zethar H2242, and Carkas H3752, the seven H7651 eunuchs H5631 who attended H8334 to the presence H6440 of King H4428 Ahasuerus H325,
Now it happened H1961 on the third H7992 day H3117, that Esther H635 put H3847 on H3847 her royal H4438 robes H3847 and stood H5975 in the inner H6442 court H2691 of the king's H4428 house H1004 in front H5227 of the king's H4428 [fn]rooms H1004, and the king H4428 was sitting H3427 on his royal H4438 throne H3678 in the [fn]throne H4438 room H1004, opposite H5227 the entrance H6607 to his house H1004.
Then the king H4428 said H559 to Haman H2001, “Take H3947 quickly H4116 the robes H3830 and the horse H5483 as you have said H1696, and do H6213 so H3651 for Mordecai H4782 the Jew H3064, who is sitting H3427 at the king's H4428 gate H8179; do not fall H5307 short H5307 in anything H1697 of all H3605 that you have spoken H1696.”
Now it happened H1961 after H310 Yahweh H3068 had spoken H1696 these H428 words H1697 to Job H347, that Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Eliphaz H464 the Temanite H8489, “My anger H639 burns H2734 against you and against your two H8147 friends H7453 because H3588 you have not spoken H1696 of Me what is H3559 right H3559 as My servant H5650 Job H347 has.
For the choir director. According to [fn]Mahalath. A [fn]Maskil of David.
The wicked H5036 fool H5036 says H559 in his heart H3820, “There H369 is H369 no H369 God H430,”
They act H7843 corruptly H7843, and commit H8581 abominable H8581 injustice H5766;
There H369 is H369 no H369 one H369 who does H6213 good H2896.
“By the power H3581 of my hand H3027 and by my wisdom H2451 I did H6213 this,
For I have H995 understanding H995;
And I removed H5493 the boundaries H1367 of the peoples H5971
And plundered H8154 their treasures H6264,
And like a mighty H3524 man H47 I brought H3381 down H3381 [fn]their inhabitants H3427,
In those H1992 days H3117 Hezekiah H2396 became H2470 ill H2470 to the point H4191 of death H4191. And Isaiah H3470 the prophet H5030 the son H1121 of Amoz H531 came H935 to him and said H559 to him, “Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, ‘Set H6680 your house H1004 in H6680 order H6680, for you shall die H4191 and not live H2421.'”
“Shout H7442 for H7442 joy H7442, O barren H6135 woman H6135, who has not H3808 given H3205 birth H3205;
Break H6476 forth H6476 into joyful H7440 shouting H7440 and cry H6670 aloud H6670, you who have not been in [fn]labor H2342;
For more H4480 numerous H7227 are the sons H1121 of the desolate H8074 one
Than H4480 the sons H1121 of the married H1166 woman,” says H559 Yahweh H3068.
“As for Me, this H2088 is My covenant H1285 with them,” says H559 Yahweh H3068: “My Spirit H7307 which H834 is upon you, and My words H1697 which H834 I have put H7760 in your mouth H6310, shall not depart H4185 from your mouth H6310, nor H3808 from the mouth H6310 of your seed H2233, nor H3808 from the mouth H6310 of your seed's H2233 seed H2233,” says H559 Yahweh H3068, “from now H6258 and forever H5704 H5769.”
“Those who sanctify H6942 and purify H2891 themselves to go to the gardens H1593,
[fn]Following H310 one H259 in the center H8432,
Who eat H398 swine's H2386 flesh H1320, detestable H8263 things H8263, and mice H5909,
Will come H5486 to H5486 an H5486 end H5486 altogether H3162,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068.
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to me in the days H3117 of Josiah H2977 the king H4428, “Have you seen H7200 what H834 faithless H4878 Israel H3478 did H6213? She went H1980 up on every H3605 high H1364 hill H2022 and under H8478 every H3605 green H7488 tree H6086, and she was a harlot H2181 there H8033.
“Were H954 they ashamed H954 because H3588 of the abomination H8441 they have done H6213?
They were H954 not even H1571 ashamed H954 at all H954;
They did not even H1571 know H3045 how to feel H3637 dishonor H3637.
Therefore H3651 they shall fall H5307 among those who fall H5307;
At the time H6256 that I punish H6485 them,
They shall be cast H3782 down H3782,” says H559 Yahweh H3068.
“Zion H6726 will be plowed H2790 as a field H7704,
And Jerusalem H3389 will become H1961 a heap H5856 of H5856 ruins H5856,
And the mountain H2022 of the house H1004 will become [fn]the high H1116 places H1116 of a forest H3293.”'
“And it will be, that the nation H1471 or the kingdom H4467 which H834 will not serve H5647 him, Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894, and which H834 will not put H5414 its neck H6677 under the yoke H5923 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894, I will punish H6485 that nation H1471 with the sword H2719, with famine H7458, and with pestilence H1698,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068, “until H5704 I have brought H8552 [fn]it to H8552 an end H8552 by his hand H3027.
Then I spoke H1696 to the priests H3548 and to all H3605 this H2088 people H5971, saying H559, “Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068: Do not listen H8085 to the words H1697 of your prophets H5030 who prophesy H5012 to you, saying H559, ‘Behold H2009, the vessels H3627 of the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068 will now H6258 shortly H4120 be returned H7725 from Babylon H894'; for they are prophesying H5012 a lie H8267 to you.
“Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478, concerning H413 Ahab H256 the son H1121 of Kolaiah H6964 and concerning H413 Zedekiah H6667 the son H1121 of Maaseiah H4641, who are prophesying H5012 to you falsely H8267 in My name H8034, ‘Behold H2009, I will give H5414 them into the hand H3027 of Nebuchadnezzar H5019 king H4428 of Babylon H894, and he will strike H5221 them down H5221 before your eyes H5869.
“Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068,
‘Behold H2009, I will [fn]return H7725 the [fn]fortunes H7622 of the tents H168 of Jacob H3290
And have H7355 compassion H7355 on H7355 his dwelling H4908 places H4908;
And the city H5892 will be rebuilt H1129 on its ruin H8510,
And the palace H759 will sit H3427 on its just H4941 place H4941.
Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478, “Once again H5750 they will speak H559 this H2088 word H1697 in the land H776 of Judah H3063 and in its cities H5892 when I [fn]return H7725 their [fn]fortunes H7622,
‘Yahweh H3068 bless H1288 you, O abode H5116 of righteousness H6664,
“So now H6258, therefore H3651 thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, the God H430 of Israel H3478, concerning H413 this H2088 city H5892 of which H834 you are saying H559, ‘It is given H5414 into the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894 by sword H2719, by famine H7458, and by pestilence H1698.'
“Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, ‘Yet H5750 again H5750 there will be heard H8085 in this H2088 place H4725, of which H834 you say H559, “It is a waste H2720, without H369 man H120 and without H369 beast H929,” that is, in the cities H5892 of Judah H3063 and in the streets H2351 of Jerusalem H3389 that are desolate H8074, without H369 man H120 and without H369 inhabitant H3427 and without H369 beast H929,
“Give H3034 thanks H3034 to Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635,
For Yahweh H3068 is good H2896,
For His lovingkindness H2617 endures forever H5769”;
and of those who bring H935 a thank H8426 offering H8426 into the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068. For I will [fn]return H7725 the [fn]fortunes H7622 of the land H776 as they were at first H7223,' says H559 Yahweh H3068.
“Therefore H3651 thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, ‘You have not obeyed H8085 Me in proclaiming H7121 [fn]release H1865 each H376 man H376 to his brother H251 and each H376 man H376 to his neighbor H7453. Behold H2009, I am proclaiming H7121 a [fn]release H1865 to you,' declares H5002 Yahweh H3068, ‘to the sword H2719, to the pestilence H1698, and to the famine H7458; and I will make H5414 you a terror H2113 to all H3605 the kingdoms H4467 of the earth H776.
Then Jeremiah H3414 said H559 to the house H1004 of the Rechabites H7394, “Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478, ‘Because H3282 H834 you have listened H8085 to the command H4687 of Jonadab H3082 your father H1, kept H8104 all H3605 his commands H4687, and done H6213 according to all H3605 that he commanded H6680 you,
Then King H4428 Zedekiah H6667 sent H7971 and took H3947 him out; and in his palace H1004 the king H4428 secretly H5643 asked H7592 him and said H559, “Is H3426 there H3426 a word H1697 from Yahweh H3068?” And Jeremiah H3414 said H559, “There H3426 is H3426!” Then he said H559, “You will be given H5414 into the hand H3027 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894!”
Then King H4428 Zedekiah H6667 sent H7971 and [fn]had Jeremiah H3414 the prophet H5030 brought H3947 to him at the third H7992 entrance H3996 that is in the house H1004 of Yahweh H3068; and the king H4428 said H559 to Jeremiah H3414, “I am going to ask H7592 you something H1697; do not hide H3582 anything H1697 from me.”
Then Jeremiah H3414 said H559 to Zedekiah H6667, “Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 God H430 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478, ‘If H518 you will indeed H3318 go H3318 out H3318 to the [fn]officers H8269 of the king H4428 of Babylon H894, then [fn]you will live H2421, this H2088 city H5892 will not be burned H8313 with fire H784, and you and your household H1004 will live H2421.
For thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478, “As My anger H639 and wrath H2534 have been poured H5413 out H5413 on the inhabitants H3427 of Jerusalem H3389, so H3651 My wrath H2534 will be poured H5413 out H5413 on you when you enter H935 Egypt H4714. And you will become H1961 a curse H423, an object H8047 of H8047 horror H8047, an imprecation H7045, and a reproach H2781; and you will see H7200 this H2088 place H4725 no H3808 more H5750.”
Concerning Moab H4124. Thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, the God H430 of Israel H3478,
“Woe H1945 to Nebo H5015, for it has been destroyed H7703;
Kiriathaim H7156 has been put H954 to H954 shame H954, it has been captured H3920;
The lofty H4869 stronghold H4869 has been put H954 to H954 shame H954 and [fn]shattered H2865.
For thus H3541 says H559 Yahweh H3068, “Behold H2009, those who H834 are not under judgment H4941 to drink H8354 the cup H3563 will certainly H8354 drink H8354 it, but are you the one H1931 who will go completely H5352 unpunished H5352? You will not go unpunished H5352, but you will certainly H8354 drink H8354 it.
“Their camels H1581 will become H1961 plunder H957,
And their many H1995 cattle H4735 for spoil H7998,
And I will scatter H2219 to all H3605 the winds H7307 those who cut H7112 the corners H6285 of their hair;
And I will bring H935 their [fn]disaster H343 from every H3605 side H5676,” declares H5002 Yahweh H3068.
Then He said H559 to me, “Son H1121 of man H120, raise H5375 your eyes H5869 now H4994 toward H1870 the north H6828.” So I raised H5375 my eyes H5869 toward H1870 the north H6828, and behold H2009, to the north H6828 of the altar H4196 gate H8179 was this H2088 figure H5566 of jealousy H7068 at the entrance H872.
Then He said H559 to me, “The iniquity H5771 of the house H1004 of Israel H3478 and Judah H3063 is very H3966, very H3966 great H1419, and the land H776 is filled H4390 with bloodshed H1818, and the city H5892 is full H4390 of perversion H4297; for they say H559, ‘Yahweh H3068 has forsaken H5800 the land H776, and Yahweh H3068 does not see H7200!'
Then he said H559 to me, “The north H6828 chambers H3957 and the south H1864 chambers H3957, which H834 are opposite H413 H6440 the separate H1508 area H1508, they are the holy H6944 chambers H3957 where H834 H8033 the priests H3548 who H834 are near H7138 to Yahweh H3068 shall eat H398 the most H6944 holy H6944 things H6944. There H8033 they shall lay H5117 the most H6944 holy H6944 things H6944, the grain offering H4503, the sin H2403 offering H2403, and the guilt H817 offering H817; for the place H4725 is holy H6918.
Therefore H6903 H1836, Daniel H1841 went H5954 in H5954 to Arioch H746, whom H1768 the king H4430 had appointed H4483 to destroy H7 the wise H2445 men H2445 of Babylon H895; he went H236 and said H560 thus H3652 to him: “Do not destroy H7 the wise H2445 men H2445 of Babylon H895! Bring H5954 me before H6925 the king H4430, and I will declare H2324 the interpretation H6591 to the king H4430.”
Then H116 Arioch H746 hurriedly H927 brought H5954 Daniel H1841 before H6925 the king H4430 and said H560 thus H3652 to him: “I have found H7912 a man H1400 among H4481 H1123 the [fn]exiles H1123 H1547 from Judah H3061 who H1768 can make H3046 the interpretation H6591 known H3046 to the king H4430!”
Then H116 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 was filled H4391 with wrath H2528, and the image H6755 of his face H600 changed H8133 toward H5922 Shadrach H7715, Meshach H4336, and Abed-nego H5665. He answered H6032 and said H560 to heat H228 the furnace H861 seven H7655 times H2298 more H5922 than H5922 H1768 it was usually H2370 heated H228.
Then H116 Nebuchadnezzar H5020 the king H4430 was astounded H8429 and hurriedly H927 stood H6966 up H6966; he answered H6032 and said H560 to his high H1907 officials H1907, “Was it not three H8532 men H1400 we cast H7412 tied H3729 up H3729 into the midst H1459 of the fire H5135?” They answered H6032 and said H560 to the king H4430, “Certainly H3330, O king H4430.”
Nebuchadnezzar H5020 answered H6032 and said H560, “Blessed H1289 be the God H426 of Shadrach H7715, Meshach H4336, and Abed-nego H5665, who H1768 has sent H7972 His angel H4398 and saved H7804 His servants H5649 who H1768 put H7365 their trust H7365 in Him, [fn]violating H8133 the king's H4430 word H4406, and gave H3052 up their bodies H1655 so H1768 as not to serve H6399 and not to worship H5457 any H3606 god H426 except H3861 their own God H426.
“Then H116 Daniel H1841, whose H1768 name H8036 is Belteshazzar H1096, was appalled H8075 for a while H8160 as his thoughts H7476 were alarming H927 him. The king H4430 answered H6032 and said H560, ‘Belteshazzar H1096, do not let the dream H2493 or its interpretation H6591 alarm H927 you.' Belteshazzar H1096 answered H6032 and said H560, ‘My lord H4756, if only the dream H2493 applied to those who hate H8131 you and its interpretation H6591 to your adversaries H6146!
The queen H4433 entered H5954 the banquet H4961 [fn]hall H1005 because H6903 of the words H4406 of the king H4430 and his nobles H7261; the queen H4433 answered H6032 and said H560, “O king H4430, live H2418 forever H5957! Do not let your thoughts H7476 alarm H927 you or the [fn]splendor H2122 of your face be changed H8133.
Then H116 Daniel H1841 was brought H5954 in H5954 before H6925 the king H4430. The king H4430 answered H6032 and said H560 to Daniel H1841, “Are you that Daniel H1841 who H1768 is one of the [fn]exiles H1123 H1547 from Judah H3061, whom H1768 my father H2 the king H4430 brought H858 from Judah H3061?
Then H116 Daniel H1841 answered H6032 and said H560 before H6925 the king H4430, “Let your gifts H4978 remain with you or give H3052 your rewards H5023 to someone H321 else H321; however H1297, I will read H7123 the writing H3792 to the king H4430 and make H3046 the interpretation H6591 known H3046 to him.
Then H116 Belshazzar H1113 said H560 the word, and they clothed H3848 Daniel H1841 with purple H711 and put a necklace H2002 of gold H1722 around H5922 his neck H6676 and issued H3745 a H3745 proclamation H3745 concerning H5922 him that he now would H1934 be H1934 the [fn]third H8531 powerful H7990 ruler H7990 in the kingdom H4437.
When Yahweh H3068 first H8462 spoke H1696 through Hosea H1954, Yahweh H3068 said H559 to Hosea H1954, “Go H1980, take H3947 for yourself a wife H802 of harlotry H2183 and have children H3206 of harlotry H2183; for the land H776 commits H2181 flagrant H2181 harlotry H2181, [fn]forsaking H4480 H310 Yahweh H3068.”
Then she conceived H2029 again H5750 and gave H3205 birth H3205 to a daughter H1323. And [fn]Yahweh said H559 to him, “Name H7121 H8034 her [fn]Lo-ruhamah H3819, for I will no H3808 longer H3254 H5750 have H7355 compassion H7355 on H7355 the house H1004 of Israel H3478, that I would ever H5375 forgive H5375 them.
“For their mother H517 has played H2181 the H2181 harlot H2181;
She who conceived H2029 them has acted H954 shamefully H954.
For she said H559, ‘I will go H1980 after H310 my lovers H157,
Who give H5414 me my bread H3899 and my water H4325,
My wool H6785 and my flax H6593, my oil H8081 and my drink H8250.'
Then Yahweh H3068 said H559 to me, “Go H1980 again H5750, love H157 a [fn]woman H802 who is loved H157 by her companion H7453 and is an adulteress H5003, even as Yahweh H3068 loves H157 the sons H1121 of Israel H3478, though they turn H6437 to other H312 gods H430 and love H157 raisin H809 H6025 cakes H809.”
Then Yahweh H3068 [fn]will answer H6030 and say H559 to His people H5971,
“Behold H2009, I am going to send H7971 you grain H1715, new H8492 wine H8492, and oil H3323,
And you will be H7646 satisfied H7646 in full with [fn]them;
And I will never H3808 again H5750 make H5414 you a reproach H2781 among the nations H1471.
I saw H7200 the Lord H136 standing H5324 beside H5921 the altar H4196, and He said H559,
“Strike H5221 the capitals H3730 so that the thresholds H5592 will quake H7493,
And break H1214 them on the heads H7218 of them all H3605!
Then I will kill H2026 the rest H319 of them with the sword H2719;
Not one of them who H5127 can flee H5127 will flee H5127,
And not one of them who H6412 can survive H6412 will escape H4422.
Then the angel H4397 of Yahweh H3068 answered H6030 and said H559, “O Yahweh H3068 of hosts H6635, how H4970 long H5704 H4970 will You have H7355 no H3808 compassion H7355 for H7355 Jerusalem H3389 and the cities H5892 of Judah H3063, with which H834 You have been H2194 indignant H2194 these H2088 seventy H7657 years H8141?”
