Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:20 - But Isaac said to his son, “How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?” And he said, “Because the LORD your God brought it to me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:21 - Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come near, that I may feel you, my son, whether you are really my son Esau or not.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:22 - So Jacob went near to Isaac his father, and he felt him and said, “The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:24 - Then he said, “Are you really my son Esau?” He said, “I am.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:25 - He said, “Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's game, so that my soul may bless you.” So he brought it near to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine, and he drank.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:26 - Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come near now and kiss me, my son.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:27 - And he came near and kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him and said:

“Surely, the smell of my son
Is like the smell of a field
Which the LORD has blessed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:31 - He also had made savory food, and brought it to his father, and said to his father, “Let my father arise and eat of his son's game, that your soul may bless me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:32 - And his father Isaac said to him, “Who are you?” So he said, “I am your son, your firstborn, Esau.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:33 - Then Isaac trembled exceedingly, and said, “Who? Where is the one who hunted game and brought it to me? I ate all of it before you came, and I have blessed him—and indeed he shall be blessed.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:34 - When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with an exceedingly great and bitter cry, and said to his father, “Bless me—me also, O my father!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:35 - But he said, “Your brother came with deceit and has taken away your blessing.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:36 - And Esau said, “Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has supplanted me these two times. He took away my birthright, and now look, he has taken away my blessing!” And he said, “Have you not reserved a blessing for me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:37 - Then Isaac answered and said to Esau, “Indeed I have made him your master, and all his brethren I have given to him as servants; with grain and wine I have sustained him. What shall I do now for you, my son?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:38 - And Esau said to his father, “Have you only one blessing, my father? Bless me—me also, O my father!” And Esau lifted up his voice and wept.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:39 - Then Isaac his father answered and said to him:

“Behold, your dwelling shall be of the fatness of the earth,
And of the dew of heaven from above.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:41 - So Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau said in his heart, “The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:42 - And the words of Esau her older son were told to Rebekah. So she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, “Surely your brother Esau comforts himself concerning you by intending to kill you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:46 - And Rebekah said to Isaac, “I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob takes a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these who are the daughters of the land, what good will my life be to me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:13 - And behold, the LORD stood above it and said: “I am the LORD God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:16 - Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the LORD is in this place, and I did not know it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:17 - And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:4 - And Jacob said to them, “My brethren, where are you from?” And they said, “We are from Haran.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:5 - Then he said to them, “Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?” And they said, “We know him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:6 - So he said to them, “Is he well?” And they said, “He is well. And look, his daughter Rachel is coming with the sheep.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:7 - Then he said, “Look, it is still high day; it is not time for the cattle to be gathered together. Water the sheep, and go and feed them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:14 - And Laban said to him, “Surely you are my bone and my flesh.” And he stayed with him for a month.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:15 - Then Laban said to Jacob, “Because you are my relative, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what should your wages be?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:18 - Now Jacob loved Rachel; so he said, “I will serve you seven years for Rachel your younger daughter.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:19 - And Laban said, “It is better that I give her to you than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:21 - Then Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:25 - So it came to pass in the morning, that behold, it was Leah. And he said to Laban, “What is this you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served you? Why then have you deceived me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:26 - And Laban said, “It must not be done so in our country, to give the younger before the firstborn.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:33 - Then she conceived again and bore a son, and said, “Because the LORD has heard that I am unloved, He has therefore given me this son also.” And she called his name Simeon.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:34 - She conceived again and bore a son, and said, “Now this time my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons.” Therefore his name was called Levi.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:35 - And she conceived again and bore a son, and said, “Now I will praise the LORD.” Therefore she called his name Judah.[fn] Then she stopped bearing.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:1 - Now when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister, and said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I die!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:2 - And Jacob's anger was aroused against Rachel, and he said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:3 - So she said, “Here is my maid Bilhah; go in to her, and she will bear a child on my knees, that I also may have children by her.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:6 - Then Rachel said, “God has judged my case; and He has also heard my voice and given me a son.” Therefore she called his name Dan.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:8 - Then Rachel said, “With great wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister, and indeed I have prevailed.” So she called his name Naphtali.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:11 - Then Leah said, “A troop comes!”[fn] So she called his name Gad.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:13 - Then Leah said, “I am happy, for the daughters will call me blessed.” So she called his name Asher.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:14 - Now Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, “Please give me some of your son's mandrakes.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:15 - But she said to her, “Is it a small matter that you have taken away my husband? Would you take away my son's mandrakes also?” And Rachel said, “Therefore he will lie with you tonight for your son's mandrakes.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:16 - When Jacob came out of the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, “You must come in to me, for I have surely hired you with my son's mandrakes.” And he lay with her that night.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:18 - Leah said, “God has given me my wages, because I have given my maid to my husband.” So she called his name Issachar.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:20 - And Leah said, “God has endowed me with a good endowment; now my husband will dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons.” So she called his name Zebulun.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:23 - And she conceived and bore a son, and said, “God has taken away my reproach.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:25 - And it came to pass, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, “Send me away, that I may go to my own place and to my country.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:27 - And Laban said to him, “Please stay, if I have found favor in your eyes, for I have learned by experience that the LORD has blessed me for your sake.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:29 - So Jacob said to him, “You know how I have served you and how your livestock has been with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:31 - So he said, “What shall I give you?” And Jacob said, “You shall not give me anything. If you will do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep your flocks:
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:34 - And Laban said, “Oh, that it were according to your word!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:3 - Then the LORD said to Jacob, “Return to the land of your fathers and to your family, and I will be with you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:5 - and said to them, “I see your father's countenance, that it is not favorable toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:12 - “And He said, ‘Lift your eyes now and see, all the rams which leap on the flocks are streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted; for I have seen all that Laban is doing to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:24 - But God had come to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said to him, “Be careful that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:26 - And Laban said to Jacob: “What have you done, that you have stolen away unknown to me, and carried away my daughters like captives taken with the sword?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:29 - “It is in my power to do you harm, but the God of your father spoke to me last night, saying, ‘Be careful that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:31 - Then Jacob answered and said to Laban, “Because I was afraid, for I said, ‘Perhaps you would take your daughters from me by force.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:32 - “With whomever you find your gods, do not let him live. In the presence of our brethren, identify what I have of yours and take it with you.” For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:35 - And she said to her father, “Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise before you, for the manner of women is with me.” And he searched but did not find the household idols.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:36 - Then Jacob was angry and rebuked Laban, and Jacob answered and said to Laban: “What is my trespass? What is my sin, that you have so hotly pursued me?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:43 - And Laban answered and said to Jacob, “These daughters are my daughters, and these children are my children, and this flock is my flock; all that you see is mine. But what can I do this day to these my daughters or to their children whom they have borne?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:44 - “Now therefore, come, let us make a covenant, you and I, and let it be a witness between you and me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:46 - Then Jacob said to his brethren, “Gather stones.” And they took stones and made a heap, and they ate there on the heap.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:48 - And Laban said, “This heap is a witness between you and me this day.” Therefore its name was called Galeed,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:49 - also Mizpah,[fn] because he said, “May the LORD watch between you and me when we are absent one from another.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:2 - When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is God's camp.” And he called the name of that place Mahanaim.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:8 - And he said, “If Esau comes to the one company and attacks it, then the other company which is left will escape.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:9 - Then Jacob said, “O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, the LORD who said to me, ‘Return to your country and to your family, and I will deal well with you':
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:16 - Then he delivered them to the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, “Pass over before me, and put some distance between successive droves.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:20 - “and also say, ‘Behold, your servant Jacob is behind us.' ” For he said, “I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face; perhaps he will accept me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:26 - And He said, “Let Me go, for the day breaks.” But he said, “I will not let You go unless You bless me!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:27 - So He said to him, “What is your name?” He said, “Jacob.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:28 - And He said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel;[fn] for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:29 - Then Jacob asked, saying, “Tell me Your name, I pray.” And He said, “Why is it that you ask about My name?” And He blessed him there.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:5 - And he lifted his eyes and saw the women and children, and said, “Who are these with you?” So he said, “The children whom God has graciously given your servant.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:8 - Then Esau said, “What do you mean by all this company which I met?” And he said, “These are to find favor in the sight of my lord.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:9 - But Esau said, “I have enough, my brother; keep what you have for yourself.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:10 - And Jacob said, “No, please, if I have now found favor in your sight, then receive my present from my hand, inasmuch as I have seen your face as though I had seen the face of God, and you were pleased with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:12 - Then Esau said, “Let us take our journey; let us go, and I will go before you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:13 - But Jacob said to him, “My lord knows that the children are weak, and the flocks and herds which are nursing are with me. And if the men should drive them hard one day, all the flock will die.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:15 - And Esau said, “Now let me leave with you some of the people who are with me.” But he said, “What need is there? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:4 - So Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, “Get me this young woman as a wife.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:11 - Then Shechem said to her father and her brothers, “Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you say to me I will give.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:30 - Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have troubled me by making me obnoxious among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and since I am few in number, they will gather themselves together against me and kill me. I shall be destroyed, my household and I.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:1 - Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there; and make an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:2 - And Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, “Put away the foreign gods that are among you, purify yourselves, and change your garments.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:10 - And God said to him, “Your name is Jacob; your name shall not be called Jacob anymore, but Israel shall be your name.” So He called his name Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:11 - Also God said to him: “I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall proceed from you, and kings shall come from your body.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:17 - Now it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, “Do not fear; you will have this son also.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:6 - So he said to them, “Please hear this dream which I have dreamed:
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:9 - Then he dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers, and said, “Look, I have dreamed another dream. And this time, the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:10 - So he told it to his father and his brothers; and his father rebuked him and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth before you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:13 - And Israel said to Joseph, “Are not your brothers feeding the flock in Shechem? Come, I will send you to them.” So he said to him, “Here I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:14 - Then he said to him, “Please go and see if it is well with your brothers and well with the flocks, and bring back word to me.” So he sent him out of the Valley of Hebron, and he went to Shechem.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:16 - So he said, “I am seeking my brothers. Please tell me where they are feeding their flocks.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:17 - And the man said, “They have departed from here, for I heard them say, ‘Let us go to Dothan.' ” So Joseph went after his brothers and found them in Dothan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:21 - But Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands, and said, “Let us not kill him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:22 - And Reuben said to them, “Shed no blood, but cast him into this pit which is in the wilderness, and do not lay a hand on him”—that he might deliver him out of their hands, and bring him back to his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:26 - So Judah said to his brothers, “What profit is there if we kill our brother and conceal his blood?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:30 - And he returned to his brothers and said, “The lad is no more; and I, where shall I go?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:33 - And he recognized it and said, “It is my son's tunic. A wild beast has devoured him. Without doubt Joseph is torn to pieces.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:8 - And Judah said to Onan, “Go in to your brother's wife and marry her, and raise up an heir to your brother.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:11 - Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, “Remain a widow in your father's house till my son Shelah is grown.” For he said, “Lest he also die like his brothers.” And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:16 - Then he turned to her by the way, and said, “Please let me come in to you”; for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. So she said, “What will you give me, that you may come in to me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:17 - And he said, “I will send a young goat from the flock.” So she said, “Will you give me a pledge till you send it?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:18 - Then he said, “What pledge shall I give you?” So she said, “Your signet and cord, and your staff that is in your hand.” Then he gave them to her, and went in to her, and she conceived by him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:22 - So he returned to Judah and said, “I cannot find her. Also, the men of the place said there was no harlot in this place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:23 - Then Judah said, “Let her take them for herself, lest we be shamed; for I sent this young goat and you have not found her.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:24 - And it came to pass, about three months after, that Judah was told, saying, “Tamar your daughter-in-law has played the harlot; furthermore she is with child by harlotry.” So Judah said, “Bring her out and let her be burned!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:25 - When she was brought out, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, “By the man to whom these belong, I am with child.” And she said, “Please determine whose these are—the signet and cord, and staff.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:26 - So Judah acknowledged them and said, “She has been more righteous than I, because I did not give her to Shelah my son.” And he never knew her again.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:29 - Then it happened, as he drew back his hand, that his brother came out unexpectedly; and she said, “How did you break through? This breach be upon you!” Therefore his name was called Perez.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:7 - And it came to pass after these things that his master's wife cast longing eyes on Joseph, and she said, “Lie with me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:8 - But he refused and said to his master's wife, “Look, my master does not know what is with me in the house, and he has committed all that he has to my hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:14 - that she called to the men of her house and spoke to them, saying, “See, he has brought in to us a Hebrew to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:8 - And they said to him, “We each have had a dream, and there is no interpreter of it.” So Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell them to me, please.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:9 - Then the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, “Behold, in my dream a vine was before me,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:12 - And Joseph said to him, “This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:16 - When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, “I also was in my dream, and there were three white baskets on my head.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:18 - So Joseph answered and said, “This is the interpretation of it: The three baskets are three days.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:15 - And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that you can understand a dream, to interpret it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:16 - So Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, “It is not in me; God will give Pharaoh an answer of peace.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:25 - Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dreams of Pharaoh are one; God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do:
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:38 - And Pharaoh said to his servants, “Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:39 - Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Inasmuch as God has shown you all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:41 - And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:44 - Pharaoh also said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh, and without your consent no man may lift his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:54 - and the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph had said. The famine was in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:55 - So when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Then Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph; whatever he says to you, do.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:1 - When Jacob saw that there was grain in Egypt, Jacob said to his sons, “Why do you look at one another?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:4 - But Jacob did not send Joseph's brother Benjamin with his brothers, for he said, “Lest some calamity befall him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:7 - Joseph saw his brothers and recognized them, but he acted as a stranger to them and spoke roughly to them. Then he said to them, “Where do you come from?” And they said, “From the land of Canaan to buy food.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:9 - Then Joseph remembered the dreams which he had dreamed about them, and said to them, “You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:12 - But he said to them, “No, but you have come to see the nakedness of the land.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:14 - But Joseph said to them, “It is as I spoke to you, saying, ‘You are spies!'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:18 - Then Joseph said to them the third day, “Do this and live, for I fear God:
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:21 - Then they said to one another, “We are truly guilty concerning our brother, for we saw the anguish of his soul when he pleaded with us, and we would not hear; therefore this distress has come upon us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:22 - And Reuben answered them, saying, “Did I not speak to you, saying, ‘Do not sin against the boy'; and you would not listen? Therefore behold, his blood is now required of us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:24 - And he turned himself away from them and wept. Then he returned to them again, and talked with them. And he took Simeon from them and bound him before their eyes.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:28 - So he said to his brothers, “My money has been restored, and there it is, in my sack!” Then their hearts failed them and they were afraid, saying to one another, “What is this that God has done to us?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:33 - “Then the man, the lord of the country, said to us, ‘By this I will know that you are honest men: Leave one of your brothers here with me, take food for the famine of your households, and be gone.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:36 - And Jacob their father said to them, “You have bereaved me: Joseph is no more, Simeon is no more, and you want to take Benjamin. All these things are against me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:37 - Then Reuben spoke to his father, saying, “Kill my two sons if I do not bring him back to you; put him in my hands, and I will bring him back to you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:38 - But he said, “My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he is left alone. If any calamity should befall him along the way in which you go, then you would bring down my gray hair with sorrow to the grave.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:2 - And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the grain which they had brought from Egypt, that their father said to them, “Go back, buy us a little food.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:3 - But Judah spoke to him, saying, “The man solemnly warned us, saying, ‘You shall not see my face unless your brother is with you.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:5 - “But if you will not send him, we will not go down; for the man said to us, ‘You shall not see my face unless your brother is with you.' ”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:6 - And Israel said, “Why did you deal so wrongfully with me as to tell the man whether you had still another brother?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:8 - Then Judah said to Israel his father, “Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go, that we may live and not die, both we and you and also our little ones.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:11 - And their father Israel said to them, “If it must be so, then do this: Take some of the best fruits of the land in your vessels and carry down a present for the man—a little balm and a little honey, spices and myrrh, pistachio nuts and almonds.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:16 - When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the steward of his house, “Take these men to my home, and slaughter an animal and make ready; for these men will dine with me at noon.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:17 - Then the man did as Joseph ordered, and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:23 - But he said, “Peace be with you, do not be afraid. Your God and the God of your father has given you treasure in your sacks; I had your money.” Then he brought Simeon out to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:27 - Then he asked them about their well-being, and said, “Is your father well, the old man of whom you spoke? Is he still alive?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:28 - And they answered, “Your servant our father is in good health; he is still alive.” And they bowed their heads down and prostrated themselves.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:29 - Then he lifted his eyes and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, “Is this your younger brother of whom you spoke to me?” And he said, “God be gracious to you, my son.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:31 - Then he washed his face and came out; and he restrained himself, and said, “Serve the bread.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:2 - “Also put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, and his grain money.” So he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:4 - When they had gone out of the city, and were not yet far off, Joseph said to his steward, “Get up, follow the men; and when you overtake them, say to them, ‘Why have you repaid evil for good?

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 9:27 - As they were going down to the outskirts of the city, Samuel said to Saul, “Tell the servant to go on ahead of us.” And he went on. “But you stand here awhile, that I may announce to you the word of God.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 10:14 - Then Saul's uncle said to him and his servant, “Where did you go?” So he said, “To look for the donkeys. When we saw that they were nowhere to be found, we went to Samuel.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:1 - Now it happened one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man who bore his armor, “Come, let us go over to the Philistines' garrison that is on the other side.” But he did not tell his father.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:6 - Then Jonathan said to the young man who bore his armor, “Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; it may be that the LORD will work for us. For nothing restrains the LORD from saving by many or by few.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:7 - So his armorbearer said to him, “Do all that is in your heart. Go then; here I am with you, according to your heart.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:8 - Then Jonathan said, “Very well, let us cross over to these men, and we will show ourselves to them.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:12 - Then the men of the garrison called to Jonathan and his armorbearer, and said, “Come up to us, and we will show you something.” Jonathan said to his armorbearer, “Come up after me, for the LORD has delivered them into the hand of Israel.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:17 - Then Saul said to the people who were with him, “Now call the roll and see who has gone from us.” And when they had called the roll, surprisingly, Jonathan and his armorbearer were not there.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:19 - Now it happened, while Saul talked to the priest, that the noise which was in the camp of the Philistines continued to increase; so Saul said to the priest, “Withdraw your hand.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:28 - Then one of the people said, “Your father strictly charged the people with an oath, saying, ‘Cursed is the man who eats food this day.' ” And the people were faint.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:29 - But Jonathan said, “My father has troubled the land. Look now, how my countenance has brightened because I tasted a little of this honey.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:33 - Then they told Saul, saying, “Look, the people are sinning against the LORD by eating with the blood!” So he said, “You have dealt treacherously; roll a large stone to me this day.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:34 - Then Saul said, “Disperse yourselves among the people, and say to them, ‘Bring me here every man's ox and every man's sheep, slaughter them here, and eat; and do not sin against the LORD by eating with the blood.' ” So every one of the people brought his ox with him that night, and slaughtered it there.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:36 - Now Saul said, “Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and plunder them until the morning light; and let us not leave a man of them.” And they said, “Do whatever seems good to you.” Then the priest said, “Let us draw near to God here.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:38 - And Saul said, “Come over here, all you chiefs of the people, and know and see what this sin was today.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:40 - Then he said to all Israel, “You be on one side, and my son Jonathan and I will be on the other side.” And the people said to Saul, “Do what seems good to you.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:43 - Then Saul said to Jonathan, “Tell me what you have done.” And Jonathan told him, and said, “I only tasted a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand. So now I must die!”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:44 - Saul answered, “God do so and more also; for you shall surely die, Jonathan.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 14:45 - But the people said to Saul, “Shall Jonathan die, who has accomplished this great deliverance in Israel? Certainly not! As the LORD lives, not one hair of his head shall fall to the ground, for he has worked with God this day.” So the people rescued Jonathan, and he did not die.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:1 - Samuel also said to Saul, “The LORD sent me to anoint you king over His people, over Israel. Now therefore, heed the voice of the words of the LORD.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:13 - Then Samuel went to Saul, and Saul said to him, “Blessed are you of the LORD! I have performed the commandment of the LORD.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:14 - But Samuel said, “What then is this bleating of the sheep in my ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:15 - And Saul said, “They have brought them from the Amalekites; for the people spared the best of the sheep and the oxen, to sacrifice to the LORD your God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:16 - Then Samuel said to Saul, “Be quiet! And I will tell you what the LORD said to me last night.” And he said to him, “Speak on.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:17 - So Samuel said, “When you were little in your own eyes, were you not head of the tribes of Israel? And did not the LORD anoint you king over Israel?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:20 - And Saul said to Samuel, “But I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and gone on the mission on which the LORD sent me, and brought back Agag king of Amalek; I have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:22 - So Samuel said:

“Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices,
As in obeying the voice of the LORD?
Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice,
And to heed than the fat of rams.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:24 - Then Saul said to Samuel, “I have sinned, for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:26 - But Samuel said to Saul, “I will not return with you, for you have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:28 - So Samuel said to him, “The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today, and has given it to a neighbor of yours, who is better than you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:30 - Then he said, “I have sinned; yet honor me now, please, before the elders of my people and before Israel, and return with me, that I may worship the LORD your God.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:32 - Then Samuel said, “Bring Agag king of the Amalekites here to me.” So Agag came to him cautiously. And Agag said, “Surely the bitterness of death is past.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 15:33 - But Samuel said, “As your sword has made women childless, so shall your mother be childless among women.” And Samuel hacked Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:1 - Now the LORD said to Samuel, “How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go; I am sending you to Jesse the Bethlehemite. For I have provided Myself a king among his sons.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:2 - And Samuel said, “How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me.” But the LORD said, “Take a heifer with you, and say, ‘I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.'
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:5 - And he said, “Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the LORD. Sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice.” Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons, and invited them to the sacrifice.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:6 - So it was, when they came, that he looked at Eliab and said, “Surely the LORD's anointed is before Him!”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:7 - But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the LORD does not see as man sees;[fn] for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:8 - So Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, “Neither has the LORD chosen this one.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:9 - Then Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, “Neither has the LORD chosen this one.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:10 - Thus Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel. And Samuel said to Jesse, “The LORD has not chosen these.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:11 - And Samuel said to Jesse, “Are all the young men here?” Then he said, “There remains yet the youngest, and there he is, keeping the sheep.” And Samuel said to Jesse, “Send and bring him. For we will not sit down[fn] till he comes here.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:12 - So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the LORD said, “Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:17 - So Saul said to his servants, “Provide me now a man who can play well, and bring him to me.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 16:18 - Then one of the servants answered and said, “Look, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, a mighty man of valor, a man of war, prudent in speech, and a handsome person; and the LORD is with him.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:8 - Then he stood and cried out to the armies of Israel, and said to them, “Why have you come out to line up for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:10 - And the Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:32 - Then David said to Saul, “Let no man's heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:33 - And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:34 - But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep his father's sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock,
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:37 - Moreover David said, “The LORD, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “Go, and the LORD be with you!”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:39 - David fastened his sword to his armor and tried to walk, for he had not tested them. And David said to Saul, “I cannot walk with these, for I have not tested them.” So David took them off.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:43 - So the Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:44 - And the Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field!”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:8 - Then Saul was very angry, and the saying displeased him; and he said, “They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed only thousands. Now what more can he have but the kingdom?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:21 - So Saul said, “I will give her to him, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him.” Therefore Saul said to David a second time, “You shall be my son-in-law today.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:23 - So Saul's servants spoke those words in the hearing of David. And David said, “Does it seem to you a light thing to be a king's son-in-law, seeing I am a poor and lightly esteemed man?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 18:25 - Then Saul said, “Thus you shall say to David: ‘The king does not desire any dowry but one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to take vengeance on the king's enemies.' ” But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:4 - Thus Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father, and said to him, “Let not the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:17 - Then Saul said to Michal, “Why have you deceived me like this, and sent my enemy away, so that he has escaped?” And Michal answered Saul, “He said to me, ‘Let me go! Why should I kill you?' ”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:22 - Then he also went to Ramah, and came to the great well that is at Sechu. So he asked, and said, “Where are Samuel and David?” And someone said, “Indeed they are at Naioth in Ramah.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:1 - Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and went and said to Jonathan, “What have I done? What is my iniquity, and what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:2 - So Jonathan said to him, “By no means! You shall not die! Indeed, my father will do nothing either great or small without first telling me. And why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so!
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:3 - Then David took an oath again, and said, “Your father certainly knows that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said, ‘Do not let 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 20:4 - So Jonathan said to David, “Whatever you yourself desire, I will do it for you.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:5 - And David said to Jonathan, “Indeed tomorrow is the New Moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king to eat. But let me go, that I may hide in the field until the third day at evening.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:9 - But Jonathan said, “Far be it from you! For if I knew certainly that evil was determined by my father to come upon you, then would I not tell you?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:10 - Then David said to Jonathan, “Who will tell me, or what if your father answers you roughly?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:11 - And Jonathan said to David, “Come, let us go out into the field.” So both of them went out into the field.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:12 - Then Jonathan said to David: “The LORD God of Israel is witness! When I have sounded out my father sometime tomorrow, or the third day, and indeed there is good toward David, and I do not send to you and tell you,
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:18 - Then Jonathan said to David, “Tomorrow is the New Moon; and you will be missed, because your seat will be empty.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:26 - Nevertheless Saul did not say anything that day, for he thought, “Something has happened to him; he is unclean, surely he is unclean.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:27 - And it happened the next day, the second day of the month, that David's place was empty. And Saul said to Jonathan his son, “Why has the son of Jesse not come to eat, either yesterday or today?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:28 - So Jonathan answered Saul, “David earnestly asked permission of me to go to Bethlehem.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:29 - “And he said, ‘Please let me go, for our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has commanded me to be there. And now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me get away and see my brothers.' Therefore he has not come to the king's table.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:30 - Then Saul's anger was aroused against Jonathan, and he said to him, “You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:36 - Then he said to his lad, “Now run, find the arrows which I shoot.” As the lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:37 - When the lad had come to the place where the arrow was which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried out after the lad and said, “Is not the arrow beyond you?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:40 - Then Jonathan gave his weapons to his lad, and said to him, “Go, carry them to the city.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:42 - Then Jonathan said to David, “Go in peace, since we have both sworn in the name of the LORD, saying, ‘May the LORD be between you and me, and between your descendants and my descendants, forever.' ” So he arose and departed, and Jonathan went into the city.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:1 - Now David came to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest. And Ahimelech was afraid when he met David, and said to him, “Why are you alone, and no one is with you?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:2 - So David said to Ahimelech the priest, “The king has ordered me on some business, and said to me, ‘Do not let anyone know anything about the business on which I send you, or what I have commanded you.' And I have directed my young men to such and such a place.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:4 - And the priest answered David and said, “There is no common bread on hand; but there is holy bread, if the young men have at least kept themselves from women.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:5 - Then David answered the priest, and said to him, “Truly, women have been kept from us about three days since I came out. And the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in effect common, even though it was consecrated in the vessel this day.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:8 - And David said to Ahimelech, “Is there not here on hand a spear or a sword? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:9 - So the priest said, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, there it is, wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you will take that, take it. For there is no other except that one here.” And David said, “There is none like it; give it to me.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:14 - Then Achish said to his servants, “Look, you see the man is insane. Why have you brought him to me?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:3 - Then David went from there to Mizpah of Moab; and he said to the king of Moab, “Please let my father and mother come here with you, till I know what God will do for me.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:5 - Now the prophet Gad said to David, “Do not stay in the stronghold; depart, and go to the land of Judah.” So David departed and went into the forest of Hereth.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:7 - then Saul said to his servants who stood about him, “Hear now, you Benjamites! Will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundreds?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:9 - Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, “I saw the son of Jesse going to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:12 - And Saul said, “Hear now, son of Ahitub!” He answered, “Here I am, my lord.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:13 - Then Saul said to him, “Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread and a sword, and have inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as it is this day?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:14 - So Ahimelech answered the king and said, “And who among all your servants is as faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, who goes at your bidding, and is honorable in your house?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:16 - And the king said, “You shall surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father's house!”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:17 - Then the king said to the guards who stood about him, “Turn and kill the priests of the LORD, because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled and did not tell it to me.” But the servants of the king would not lift their hands to strike the priests of the LORD.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:18 - And the king said to Doeg, “You turn and kill the priests!” So Doeg the Edomite turned and struck the priests, and killed on that day eighty-five men who wore a linen ephod.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:22 - So David said to Abiathar, “I knew that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have caused the death of all the persons of your father's house.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:2 - Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go and attack these Philistines?” And the LORD said to David, “Go and attack the Philistines, and save Keilah.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:4 - Then David inquired of the LORD once again. And the LORD answered him and said, “Arise, go down to Keilah. For I will deliver the Philistines into your hand.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:2 - Now Absalom would rise early and stand beside the way to the gate.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:21 - But Ittai answered the king and said, “As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in whatever place my lord the king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also your servant will be.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:3 - Then the king said, “And where is your master's son?” And Ziba said to the king, “Indeed he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said, ‘Today the house of Israel will restore the kingdom of my father to me.' ”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:21 - And Ahithophel said to Absalom, “Go in to your father's concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:5 - Then Absalom said, “Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear what he says too.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:6 - And when Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom spoke to him, saying, “Ahithophel has spoken in this manner. Shall we do as he says? If not, speak up.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:7 - So Hushai said to Absalom: “The advice that Ahithophel has given is not good at this time.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:8 - “For,” said Hushai, “you know your father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are enraged in their minds, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field; and your father is a man of war, and will not camp with the people.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:14 - So Absalom and all the men of Israel said, “The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than the advice of Ahithophel.” For the LORD had purposed to defeat the good advice of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring disaster on Absalom.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:15 - Then Hushai said to Zadok and Abiathar the priests, “Thus and so Ahithophel advised Absalom and the elders of Israel, and thus and so I have advised.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:4 - Then the king said to them, “Whatever seems best to you I will do.” So the king stood beside the gate, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:11 - So Joab said to the man who told him, “You just saw him! And why did you not strike him there to the ground? I would have given you ten shekels of silver and a belt.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:12 - But the man said to Joab, “Though I were to receive a thousand shekels of silver in my hand, I would not raise my hand against the king's son. For in our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, ‘Beware lest anyone touch the young man Absalom!'[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:14 - Then Joab said, “I cannot linger with you.” And he took three spears in his hand and thrust them through Absalom's heart, while he was still alive in the midst of the terebinth tree.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:21 - Then Joab said to the Cushite, “Go, tell the king what you have seen.” So the Cushite bowed himself to Joab and ran.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:22 - And Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said again to Joab, “But whatever happens, please let me also run after the Cushite.” So Joab said, “Why will you run, my son, since you have no news ready?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:23 - “But whatever happens,” he said, “let me run.” So he said to him, “Run.” Then Ahimaaz ran by way of the plain, and outran the Cushite.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:26 - Then the watchman saw another man running, and the watchman called to the gatekeeper and said, “There is another man, running alone!” And the king said, “He also brings news.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:27 - So the watchman said, “I think the running of the first is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok.” And the king said, “He is a good man, and comes with good news.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:28 - So Ahimaaz called out and said to the king, “All is well!” Then he bowed down with his face to the earth before the king, and said, “Blessed be the LORD your God, who has delivered up the men who raised their hand against my lord the king!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:29 - The king said, “Is the young man Absalom safe?” Ahimaaz answered, “When Joab sent the king's servant and me your servant, I saw a great tumult, but I did not know what it was about.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:31 - Just then the Cushite came, and the Cushite said, “There is good news, my lord the king! For the LORD has avenged you this day of all those who rose against you.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:32 - And the king said to the Cushite, “Is the young man Absalom safe?” So the Cushite answered, “May the enemies of my lord the king, and all who rise against you to do harm, be like that young man!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:33 - Then the king was deeply moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept. And as he went, he said thus: “O my son Absalom—my son, my son Absalom—if only I had died in your place! O Absalom my son, my son!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:5 - Then Joab came into the house to the king, and said, “Today you have disgraced all your servants who today have saved your life, the lives of your sons and daughters, the lives of your wives and the lives of your concubines,

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:22 - And David said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that you should be adversaries to me today? Shall any man be put to death today in Israel? For do I not know that today I am king over Israel?”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:25 - So it was, when he had come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said to him, “Why did you not go with me, Mephibosheth?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:26 - And he answered, “My lord, O king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself, that I may ride on it and go to the king,' because your servant is lame.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:29 - So the king said to him, “Why do you speak anymore of your matters? I have said, ‘You and Ziba divide the land.' ”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:43 - And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, “We have ten shares in the king; therefore we also have more right to David than you.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:1 - And there happened to be there a rebel,[fn] whose name was Sheba the son of Bichri, a Benjamite. And he blew a trumpet, and said:

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:6 - And David said to Abishai, “Now Sheba the son of Bichri will do us more harm than Absalom. Take your lord's servants and pursue him, lest he find for himself fortified cities, and escape us.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:20 - And Joab answered and said, “Far be it, far be it from me, that I should swallow up or destroy!
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:21 - “That is not so. But a man from the mountains of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri by name, has raised his hand against the king, against David.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 21:1 - Now there was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year; and David inquired of the LORD. And the LORD answered, “It is because of Saul and his bloodthirsty house, because he killed the Gibeonites.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 24:17 - Then David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who was striking the people, and said, “Surely I have sinned, and I have done wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Let Your hand, I pray, be against me and against my father's house.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 24:18 - And Gad came that day to David and said to him, “Go up, erect an altar to the LORD on the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 24:21 - Then Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?” And David said, “To buy the threshing floor from you, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be withdrawn from the people.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 24:22 - Now Araunah said to David, “Let my lord the king take and offer up whatever seems good to him. Look, here are oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing implements and the yokes of the oxen for wood.
