Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:4 - May he give the blessing of Abraham to you and to your offspring with you, that you may take possession of the land of your sojournings that God gave to Abraham!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:5 - Thus Isaac sent Jacob away. And he went to Paddan-aram, to Laban, the son of Bethuel the Aramean, the brother of Rebekah, Jacob's and Esau's mother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:7 - and that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother and gone to Paddan-aram.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:8 - So when Esau saw that the Canaanite women did not please Isaac his father,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:9 - Esau went to Ishmael and took as his wife, besides the wives he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:10 - Jacob left Beersheba and went toward Haran.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:11 - And he came to a certain place and stayed there that night, because the sun had set. Taking one of the stones of the place, he put it under his head and lay down in that place to sleep.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:12 - And he dreamed, and behold, there was a ladder[fn] set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven. And behold, the angels of God were ascending and descending on it!
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:13 - And behold, the LORD stood above it[fn] and said, “I am the LORD, the God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac. The land on which you lie I will give to you and to your offspring.
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 28:19 - He called the name of that place Bethel,[fn] but the name of the city was Luz at the first.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:21 - so that I come again to my father's house in peace, then the LORD shall be my God,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:1 - Then Jacob went on his journey and came to the land of the people of the east.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:9 - While he was still speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she was a shepherdess.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:10 - Now as soon as Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, Jacob came near and rolled the stone from the well's mouth and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:12 - And Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's kinsman, and that he was Rebekah's son, and she ran and told her father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:13 - As soon as Laban heard the news about Jacob, his sister's son, he ran to meet him and embraced him and kissed him and brought him to his house. Jacob told Laban all these things,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:22 - So Laban gathered together all the people of the place and made a feast.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:14 - In the days of wheat harvest Reuben went and found mandrakes in the field and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, “Please give me some of your son's mandrakes.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:15 - 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?” Rachel said, “Then he may lie with you tonight in exchange for your son's mandrakes.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:16 - When Jacob came from the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, “You must come in to me, for I have hired you with my son's mandrakes.” So he lay with her that night.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:42 - but for the feebler of the flock he would not lay them there. So the feebler would be Laban's, and the stronger Jacob's.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:1 - Now Jacob heard that the sons of Laban were saying, “Jacob has taken all that was our father's, and from what was our father's he has gained all this wealth.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:2 - And Jacob saw that Laban did not regard him with favor as before.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:3 - Then the LORD said to Jacob, “Return to the land of your fathers and to your kindred, and I will be with you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:5 - and said to them, “I see that your father does not regard me with favor as he did before. But the God of my father has been with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:9 - Thus God has taken away the livestock of your father and given them to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:11 - Then the angel of God said to me in the dream, ‘Jacob,' and I said, ‘Here I am!'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:14 - Then Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, “Is there any portion or inheritance left to us in our father's house?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:16 - All the wealth that God has taken away from our father belongs to us and to our children. Now then, whatever God has said to you, do.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:19 - Laban had gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel stole her father's household gods.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:29 - It is in my power to do you harm. But the God of your[fn] father spoke to me last night, saying, ‘Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:30 - And now you have gone away because you longed greatly for your father's house, but why did you steal my gods?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:33 - So Laban went into Jacob's tent and into Leah's tent and into the tent of the two female servants, but he did not find them. And he went out of Leah's tent and entered Rachel's.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:37 - For you have felt through all my goods; what have you found of all your household goods? Set it here before my kinsmen and your kinsmen, that they may decide between us two.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:42 - If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been on my side, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God saw my affliction and the labor of my hands and rebuked you last night.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:46 - And Jacob said to his kinsmen, “Gather stones.” And they took stones and made a heap, and they ate there by the heap.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:49 - and Mizpah,[fn] for he said, “The LORD watch between you and me, when we are out of one another's sight.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:53 - The God of Abraham and the God of Nahor, the God of their father, judge between us.” So Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:1 - Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:2 - And when Jacob saw them he said, “This is God's camp!” So he called the name of that place Mahanaim.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:9 - And Jacob said, “O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, O LORD who said to me, ‘Return to your country and to your kindred, that I may do you good,'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:11 - Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau, for I fear him, that he may come and attack me, the mothers with the children.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:18 - then you shall say, ‘They belong to your servant Jacob. They are a present sent to my lord Esau. And moreover, he is behind us.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:22 - The same night he arose and took his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven children,[fn] and crossed the ford of the Jabbok.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:25 - When the man saw that he did not prevail against Jacob, he touched his hip socket, and Jacob's hip was put out of joint as he wrestled with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:30 - So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel,[fn] saying, “For I have seen God face to face, and yet my life has been delivered.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:31 - The sun rose upon him as he passed Penuel, limping because of his hip.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:32 - Therefore to this day the people of Israel do not eat the sinew of the thigh that is on the hip socket, because he touched the socket of Jacob's hip on the sinew of the thigh.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:3 - He himself went on before them, bowing himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:14 - Let my lord pass on ahead of his servant, and I will lead on slowly, at the pace of the livestock that are ahead of me and at the pace of the children, until I come to my lord in Seir.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:15 - So Esau said, “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 33:17 - But Jacob journeyed to Succoth, and built himself a house and made booths for his livestock. Therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:19 - And from the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, he bought for a hundred pieces of money[fn] the piece of land on which he had pitched his tent.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:18 - Their words pleased Hamor and Hamor's son Shechem.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:19 - And the young man did not delay to do the thing, because he delighted in Jacob's daughter. Now he was the most honored of all his father's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:24 - And all who went out of the gate of his city listened to Hamor and his son Shechem, and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:26 - They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the sword and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and went away.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:1 - God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there. Make an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:7 - and there he built an altar and called the place El-bethel,[fn] because there God had revealed himself to him when he fled from his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:13 - Then God went up from him in the place where he had spoken with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:15 - So Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him Bethel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:16 - Then they journeyed from Bethel. When they were still some distance[fn] from Ephrath, Rachel went into labor, and she had hard labor.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:22 - While Israel lived in that land, Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine. And Israel heard of it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:2 - Esau took his wives from the Canaanites: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter[fn] of Zibeon the Hivite,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:6 - Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the members of his household, his livestock, all his beasts, and all his property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan. He went into a land away from his brother Jacob.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:12 - (Timna was a concubine of Eliphaz, Esau's son; she bore Amalek to Eliphaz.) These are the sons of Adah, Esau's wife.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:14 - These are the sons of Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: she bore to Esau Jeush, Jalam, and Korah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:20 - These are the sons of Seir the Horite, the inhabitants of the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:21 - Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan; these are the chiefs of the Horites, the sons of Seir in the land of Edom.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:24 - These are the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah; he is the Anah who found the hot springs in the wilderness, as he pastured the donkeys of Zibeon his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:32 - Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom, the name of his city being Dinhabah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:2 - These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was pasturing the flock with his brothers. He was a boy with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father's wives. And Joseph brought a bad report of them to their father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:12 - Now his brothers went to pasture their father's flock near Shechem.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:28 - Then Midianite traders passed by. And they drew Joseph up and lifted him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels[fn] of silver. They took Joseph to Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:31 - Then they took Joseph's robe and slaughtered a goat and dipped the robe in the blood.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:32 - And they sent the robe of many colors and brought it to their father and said, “This we have found; please identify whether it is your son's robe or not.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:33 - And he identified it and said, “It is my son's robe. A fierce animal has devoured him. Joseph is without doubt torn to pieces.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:8 - Then Judah said to Onan, “Go in to your brother's wife and perform the duty of a brother-in-law to her, and raise up offspring for your brother.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:9 - But Onan knew that the offspring would not be his. So whenever he went in to his brother's wife he would waste the semen on the ground, so as not to give offspring to his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:10 - And what he did was wicked in the sight of the LORD, and he put him to death also.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:11 - Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, “Remain a widow in your father's house, till Shelah my son grows up”—for he feared that he would die, like his brothers. So Tamar went and remained in her father's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:20 - When Judah sent the young goat by his friend the Adullamite to take back the pledge from the woman's hand, he did not find her.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:21 - And he asked the men of the place, “Where is the cult prostitute[fn] who was at Enaim at the roadside?” And they said, “No cult prostitute has been here.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:22 - So he returned to Judah and said, “I have not found her. Also, the men of the place said, ‘No cult prostitute has been here.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:25 - As she was being brought out, she sent word to her father-in-law, “By the man to whom these belong, I am pregnant.” And she said, “Please identify whose these are, the signet and the cord and the staff.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:4 - So Joseph found favor in his sight and attended him, and he made him overseer of his house and put him in charge of all that he had.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:5 - From the time that he made him overseer in his house and over all that he had, the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; the blessing of the LORD was on all that he had, in house and field.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:6 - So he left all that he had in Joseph's charge, and because of him he had no concern about anything but the food he ate. Now Joseph was handsome in form and appearance.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:7 - And after a time his master's wife cast her eyes on Joseph and said, “Lie with me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:8 - But he refused and said to his master's wife, “Behold, because of me my master has no concern about anything in the house, and he has put everything that he has in my charge.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:9 - He is not greater in this house than I am, nor has he kept back anything from me except you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:20 - And Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were confined, and he was there in prison.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:21 - But the LORD was with Joseph and showed him steadfast love and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:1 - Some time after this, the cupbearer of the king of Egypt and his baker committed an offense against their lord the king of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:8 - They said to him, “We have had dreams, and there is no one to interpret them.” And Joseph said to them, “Do not interpretations belong to God? Please tell them to me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:17 - and in the uppermost basket there were all sorts of baked food for Pharaoh, but the birds were eating it out of the basket on my head.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:19 - In three days Pharaoh will lift up your head—from you!—and hang you on a tree. And the birds will eat the flesh from you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:20 - On the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, he made a feast for all his servants and lifted up the head of the chief cupbearer and the head of the chief baker among his servants.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:23 - Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:1 - After two whole years, Pharaoh dreamed that he was standing by the Nile,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:2 - and behold, there came up out of the Nile seven cows, attractive and plump, and they fed in the reed grass.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:3 - And behold, seven other cows, ugly and thin, came up out of the Nile after them, and stood by the other cows on the bank of the Nile.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:10 - When Pharaoh was angry with his servants and put me and the chief baker in custody in the house of the captain of the guard,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:12 - A young Hebrew was there with us, a servant of the captain of the guard. When we told him, he interpreted our dreams to us, giving an interpretation to each man according to his dream.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:16 - Joseph answered Pharaoh, “It is not in me; God will give Pharaoh a favorable answer.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:17 - Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Behold, in my dream I was standing on the banks of the Nile.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:18 - Seven cows, plump and attractive, came up out of the Nile and fed in the reed grass.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:19 - Seven other cows came up after them, poor and very ugly and thin, such as I had never seen in all the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:31 - and the plenty will be unknown in the land by reason of the famine that will follow, for it will be very severe.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:32 - And the doubling of Pharaoh's dream means that the thing is fixed by God, and God will shortly bring it about.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:36 - That food shall be a reserve for the land against the seven years of famine that are to occur in the land of Egypt, so that the land may not perish through the famine.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:50 - Before the year of famine came, two sons were born to Joseph. Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bore them to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:51 - Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh. “For,” he said, “God has made me forget all my hardship and all my father's house.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:52 - The name of the second he called Ephraim, “For God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:54 - and the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph had said. There was famine in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:13 - And they said, “We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan, and behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is no more.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:21 - Then they said to one another, “In truth we are guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the distress of his soul, when he begged us and we did not listen. That is why this distress has come upon us.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:27 - And as one of them opened his sack to give his donkey fodder at the lodging place, he saw his money in the mouth of his sack.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:32 - We are twelve brothers, sons of our father. One is no more, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:33 - Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I shall know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your households, and go your way.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:14 - May God Almighty[fn] grant you mercy before the man, and may he send back your other brother and Benjamin. And as for me, if I am bereaved of my children, I am bereaved.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:19 - So they went up to the steward of Joseph's house and spoke with him at the door of the house,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:1 - Then he commanded the steward of his house, “Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put each man's money in the mouth of his sack,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:2 - and put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, with his money for the grain.” And he did as Joseph told him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:8 - Behold, the money that we found in the mouths of our sacks we brought back to you from the land of Canaan. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:12 - And he searched, beginning with the eldest and ending with the youngest. And the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:24 - “When we went back to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:26 - we said, ‘We cannot go down. If our youngest brother goes with us, then we will go down. For we cannot see the man's face unless our youngest brother is with us.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:31 - as soon as he sees that the boy is not with us, he will die, and your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:32 - For your servant became a pledge of safety for the boy to my father, saying, ‘If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the blame before my father all my life.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:33 - Now therefore, please let your servant remain instead of the boy as a servant to my lord, and let the boy go back with his brothers.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:8 - So it was not you who sent me here, but God. He has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house and ruler over all the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:12 - And now your eyes see, and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see, that it is my mouth that speaks to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:14 - Then he fell upon his brother Benjamin's neck and wept, and Benjamin wept upon his neck.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:21 - The sons of Israel did so: and Joseph gave them wagons, according to the command of Pharaoh, and gave them provisions for the journey.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:27 - But when they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them, and when he saw the wagons that Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of their father Jacob revived.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:1 - So Israel took his journey with all that he had and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:5 - Then Jacob set out from Beersheba. The sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons that Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:31 - Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, “I will go up and tell Pharaoh and will say to him, ‘My brothers and my father's household, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:12 - And Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all his father's household with food, according to the number of their dependents.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:13 - Now there was no food in all the land, for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished by reason of the famine.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:14 - And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, in exchange for the grain that they bought. And Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:18 - And when that year was ended, they came to him the following year and said to him, “We will not hide from my lord that our money is all spent. The herds of livestock are my lord's. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord but our bodies and our land.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:25 - And they said, “You have saved our lives; may it please my lord, we will be servants to Pharaoh.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:7 - As for me, when I came from Paddan, to my sorrow Rachel died in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was still some distance[fn] to go to Ephrath, and I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:17 - When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him, and he took his father's hand to move it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:20 - So he blessed them that day, saying,
“By you Israel will pronounce blessings, saying,
‘God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh.'” Thus he put Ephraim before Manasseh.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:2 - “Assemble and listen, O sons of Jacob,
listen to Israel your father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:4 - Unstable as water, you shall not have preeminence,
because you went up to your father's bed;
then you defiled it—he went up to my couch!
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:8 - “Judah, your brothers shall praise you;
your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;
your father's sons shall bow down before you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:25 - by the God of your father who will help you,
by the Almighty[fn] who will bless you
with blessings of heaven above,
blessings of the deep that crouches beneath,
blessings of the breasts and of the womb.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:29 - Then he commanded them and said to them, “I am to be gathered to my people; bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:30 - in the cave that is in the field at Machpelah, to the east of Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field from Ephron the Hittite to possess as a burying place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:32 - the field and the cave that is in it were bought from the Hittites.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:1 - Then Joseph fell on his father's face and wept over him and kissed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:7 - So Joseph went up to bury his father. With him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his household, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:10 - When they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, they lamented there with a very great and grievous lamentation, and he made a mourning for his father seven days.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:11 - When the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning on the threshing floor of Atad, they said, “This is a grievous mourning by the Egyptians.” Therefore the place was named Abel-mizraim;[fn] it is beyond the Jordan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:13 - for his sons carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave of the field at Machpelah, to the east of Mamre, which Abraham bought with the field from Ephron the Hittite to possess as a burying place.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:17 - ‘Say to Joseph, “Please forgive the transgression of your brothers and their sin, because they did evil to you.”' And now, please forgive the transgression of the servants of the God of your father.” Joseph wept when they spoke to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:19 - But Joseph said to them, “Do not fear, for am I in the place of God?
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:22 - So Joseph remained in Egypt, he and his father's house. Joseph lived 110 years.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:23 - And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation. The children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were counted as Joseph's own.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 2:16 - Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters, and they came and drew water and filled the troughs to water their father's flock.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:1 - Now Moses was keeping the flock of his father-in-law, Jethro, the priest of Midian, and he led his flock to the west side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 3:2 - And the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:26 - And I find something more bitter than death: the woman whose heart is snares and nets, and whose hands are fetters. He who pleases God escapes her, but the sinner is taken by her.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:6 - For there is a time and a way for everything, although man's trouble[fn] lies heavy on him.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:17 - then I saw all the work of God, that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun. However much man may toil in seeking, he will not find it out. Even though a wise man claims to know, he cannot find it out.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:1 - But all this I laid to heart, examining it all, how the righteous and the wise and their deeds are in the hand of God. Whether it is love or hate, man does not know; both are before him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:3 - This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that the same event happens to all. Also, the hearts of the children of man are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:12 - For man does not know his time. Like fish that are taken in an evil net, and like birds that are caught in a snare, so the children of man are snared at an evil time, when it suddenly falls upon them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:15 - But there was found in it a poor, wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:16 - But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man's wisdom is despised and his words are not heard.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:4 - If the anger of the ruler rises against you, do not leave your place,

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:5 - There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, as it were an error proceeding from the ruler:
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:10 - If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge,
he must use more strength,
but wisdom helps one to succeed.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:20 - Even in your thoughts, do not curse the king,

for a bird of the air will carry your voice,
or some winged creature tell the matter.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:5 - As you do not know the way the spirit comes to the bones in the womb[fn] of a woman with child, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything.

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:2 - before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars are darkened and the clouds return after the rain,
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:4 - and the doors on the street are shut—when the sound of the grinding is low, and one rises up at the sound of a bird, and all the daughters of song are brought low—
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 2:3 - She
As an apple tree among the trees of the forest,
so is my beloved among the young men.
With great delight I sat in his shadow,

and his banner over me was love.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 2:7 - I adjure you,[fn] O daughters of Jerusalem,
by the gazelles or the does of the field,
that you not stir up or awaken love

Around it are sixty mighty men,
some of the mighty men of Israel,

Behold, you are beautiful, my love,
behold, you are beautiful!
Your eyes are doves
behind your veil.
Your hair is like a flock of goats
leaping down the slopes of Gilead.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 4:6 - Until the day breathes
and the shadows flee,
I will go away to the mountain of myrrh
and the hill of frankincense.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 4:14 - nard and saffron, calamus and cinnamon,
with all trees of frankincense,
myrrh and aloes,
with all choice spices—
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 4:15 - a garden fountain, a well of living water,
and flowing streams from Lebanon.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 5:8 - I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
if you find my beloved,
that you tell him
I am sick with love.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:5 - Turn away your eyes from me,
for they overwhelm me—
Your hair is like a flock of goats
leaping down the slopes of Gilead.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:11 - She
I went down to the nut orchard
to look at the blossoms of the valley,
to see whether the vines had budded,
whether the pomegranates were in bloom.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:4 - Your neck is like an ivory tower.
Your eyes are pools in Heshbon,
by the gate of Bath-rabbim.
Your nose is like a tower of Lebanon,
which looks toward Damascus.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:2 - I would lead you and bring you
into the house of my mother—
she who used to teach me.
I would give you spiced wine to drink,
the juice of my pomegranate.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:4 - I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem,
that you not stir up or awaken love
until it pleases.

but Israel does not know,
my people do not understand.”

that the mountain of the house of the LORD
shall be established as the highest of the mountains,

“Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD,
to the house of the God of Jacob,
that he may teach us his ways
and that we may walk in his paths.”
For out of Zion shall go forth the law,[fn]
and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:5 - O house of Jacob,
come, let us walk
in the light of the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:6 - For you have rejected your people,

from before the terror of the LORD,
and from the splendor of his majesty,
when he rises to terrify the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:21 - to enter the caverns of the rocks

from before the terror of the LORD,
and from the splendor of his majesty,
when he rises to terrify the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:6 - For a man will take hold of his brother
in the house of his father, saying:
“You have a cloak;

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:8 - Woe to those who join house to house,
who add field to field,

let him speed his work
that we may see it;
let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw near,

my iniquities have overtaken me,
and I cannot see;
they are more than the hairs of my head;
my heart fails me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 40:13 - Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me!
O LORD, make haste to help me!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 40:14 - Let those be put to shame and disappointed altogether
who seek to snatch away my life;
let those be turned back and brought to dishonor
who delight in my hurt!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 41:6 - And when one comes to see me, he utters empty words,
while his heart gathers iniquity;
when he goes out, he tells it abroad.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 41:8 - They say, “A deadly thing is poured out[fn] on him;
he will not rise again from where he lies.”
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 42:5 - Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 42:11 - Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:3 - for not by their own sword did they win the land,
nor did their own arm save them,
but your right hand and your arm,
and the light of your face,
for you delighted in them.

and shame has covered my face
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:20 - If we had forgotten the name of our God
or spread out our hands to a foreign god,
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 44:26 - Rise up; come to our help!
Redeem us for the sake of your steadfast love!

Since he is your lord, bow to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 45:17 - I will cause your name to be remembered in all generations;
therefore nations will praise you forever and ever.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 51:11 - Cast me not away from your presence,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 53:2 - God looks down from heaven
on the children of man
to see if there are any who understand,[fn]
who seek after God.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 54:2 - O God, hear my prayer;
give ear to the words of my mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 55:21 - His speech was smooth as butter,
yet war was in his heart;
his words were softer than oil,
yet they were drawn swords.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 56:13 - For you have delivered my soul from death,
yes, my feet from falling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of life.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 58:9 - Sooner than your pots can feel the heat of thorns,
whether green or ablaze, may he sweep them away![fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:1 - To the choirmaster: according to Do Not Destroy. A Miktam[fn] of David, when Saul sent men to watch his house in order to kill him.
Deliver me from my enemies, O my God;
protect me from those who rise up against me;
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 59:5 - You, LORD God of hosts, are God of Israel.
Rouse yourself to punish all the nations;
spare none of those who treacherously plot evil. Selah

and growl if they do not get their fill.

as I perform my vows day after day.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 62:9 - Those of low estate are but a breath;
those of high estate are a delusion;
in the balances they go up;
they are together lighter than a breath.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 63:2 - So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,
beholding your power and glory.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 64:4 - shooting from ambush at the blameless,
shooting at him suddenly and without fear.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 64:5 - They hold fast to their evil purpose;
they talk of laying snares secretly,
thinking, “Who can see them?”
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 65:9 - You visit the earth and water it;[fn]
you greatly enrich it;
the river of God is full of water;
you provide their grain,
for so you have prepared it.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 67:2 - that your way may be known on earth,
your saving power among all nations.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:18 - You ascended on high,
leading a host of captives in your train
and receiving gifts among men,
even among the rebellious, that the LORD God may dwell there.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:20 - Our God is a God of salvation,
and to GOD, the Lord, belong deliverances from death.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 68:30 - Rebuke the beasts that dwell among the reeds,
the herd of bulls with the calves of the peoples.
Trample underfoot those who lust after tribute;
scatter the peoples who delight in war.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:3 - I am weary with my crying out;
my throat is parched.
My eyes grow dim
with waiting for my God.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:13 - But as for me, my prayer is to you, O LORD.
At an acceptable time, O God,
in the abundance of your steadfast love answer me in your saving faithfulness.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:14 - Deliver me
from sinking in the mire;
let me be delivered from my enemies
and from the deep waters.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:23 - Let their eyes be darkened, so that they cannot see,
and make their loins tremble continually.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 69:29 - But I am afflicted and in pain;
let your salvation, O God, set me on high!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 71:3 - Be to me a rock of refuge,
to which I may continually come;
you have given the command to save me,

and blessings invoked for him all the day!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 73:16 - But when I thought how to understand this,
it seemed to me a wearisome task,

I have made the Lord GOD my refuge,
that I may tell of all your works.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 74:7 - They set your sanctuary on fire;
they profaned the dwelling place of your name,
bringing it down to the ground.

by demanding the food they craved.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 78:38 - Yet he, being compassionate,
atoned for their iniquity
and did not destroy them;
he restrained his anger often
and did not stir up all his wrath.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 79:9 - Help us, O God of our salvation,
for the glory of your name;
deliver us, and atone for our sins,
for your name's sake!

may they perish at the rebuke of your face!

that I may walk in your truth;
unite my heart to fear your name.

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 103:18 - to those who keep his covenant
and remember to do his commandments.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 103:20 - Bless the LORD, O you his angels,
you mighty ones who do his word,
obeying the voice of his word!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:14 - You cause the grass to grow for the livestock
and plants for man to cultivate,

and bread to strengthen man's heart.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 104:16 - The trees of the LORD are watered abundantly,
the cedars of Lebanon that he planted.

that I may rejoice in the gladness of your nation,
that I may glory with your inheritance.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:7 - Our fathers, when they were in Egypt,
did not consider your wondrous works;
they did not remember the abundance of your steadfast love,
but rebelled by the sea, at the Red Sea.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:8 - Yet he saved them for his name's sake,
that he might make known his mighty power.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:23 - Therefore he said he would destroy them—

stood in the breach before him,
to turn away his wrath from destroying them.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:26 - Therefore he raised his hand and swore to them
that he would make them fall in the wilderness,
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:27 - and would make their offspring fall among the nations,
scattering them among the lands.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:45 - For their sake he remembered his covenant,
and relented according to the abundance of his steadfast love.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 106:47 - Save us, O LORD our God,
and gather us from among the nations,
that we may give thanks to your holy name
and glory in your praise.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 107:7 - He led them by a straight way
till they reached a city to dwell in.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:4 - In return for my love they accuse me,
but I give myself to prayer.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:16 - For he did not remember to show kindness,
but pursued the poor and needy
and the brokenhearted, to put them to death.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:21 - But you, O GOD my Lord,
deal on my behalf for your name's sake;
because your steadfast love is good, deliver me!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 109:31 - For he stands at the right hand of the needy one,
to save him from those who condemn his soul to death.

but the LORD helped me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 118:27 - The LORD is God,

Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:13 - With my lips I declare
all the rules[fn] of your mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:20 - My soul is consumed with longing
for your rules[fn] at all times.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:37 - Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things;
and give me life in your ways.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:43 - And take not the word of truth utterly out of my mouth,
for my hope is in your rules.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:55 - I remember your name in the night, O LORD,
and keep your law.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:58 - I entreat your favor with all my heart;
be gracious to me according to your promise.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:60 - I hasten and do not delay
to keep your commandments.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:62 - At midnight I rise to praise you,
because of your righteous rules.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:64 - The earth, O LORD, is full of your steadfast love;
teach me your statutes!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:67 - Before I was afflicted I went astray,
but now I keep your word.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:72 - The law of your mouth is better to me
than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:76 - Let your steadfast love comfort me
according to your promise to your servant.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:88 - In your steadfast love give me life,
that I may keep the testimonies of your mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:95 - The wicked lie in wait to destroy me,
but I consider your testimonies.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:106 - I have sworn an oath and confirmed it,
to keep your righteous rules.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:108 - Accept my freewill offerings of praise, O LORD,
and teach me your rules.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:112 - I incline my heart to perform your statutes
forever, to the end.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:126 - It is time for the LORD to act,
for your law has been broken.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:148 - My eyes are awake before the watches of the night,
that I may meditate on your promise.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 119:173 - Let your hand be ready to help me,
for I have chosen your precepts.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 122:4 - to which the tribes go up,
the tribes of the LORD,
as was decreed for[fn] Israel,
to give thanks to the name of the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 126:2 - Then our mouth was filled with laughter,
and our tongue with shouts of joy;
then they said among the nations,
“The LORD has done great things for them.”
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 126:3 - The LORD has done great things for us;
we are glad.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 127:2 - It is in vain that you rise up early
and go late to rest,
eating the bread of anxious toil;
for he gives to his beloved sleep.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 129:3 - The plowers plowed upon my back;
they made long their furrows.”
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 129:6 - Let them be like the grass on the housetops,
which withers before it grows up,
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 132:8 - Arise, O LORD, and go to your resting place,
you and the ark of your might.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 133:2 - It is like the precious oil on the head,
running down on the beard,
on the beard of Aaron,
running down on the collar of his robes!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 138:1 - Of David.
I give you thanks, O LORD, with my whole heart;
before the gods I sing your praise;
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 138:4 - All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O LORD,
for they have heard the words of your mouth,
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 139:7 - Where shall I go from your Spirit?
Or where shall I flee from your presence?
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 140:9 - As for the head of those who surround me,
let the mischief of their lips overwhelm them!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 141:4 - Do not let my heart incline to any evil,
to busy myself with wicked deeds
in company with men who work iniquity,
and let me not eat of their delicacies!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 142:7 - Bring me out of prison,
that I may give thanks to your name!
The righteous will surround me,
for you will deal bountifully with me.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:10 - Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God!
Let your good Spirit lead me
on level ground!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 143:11 - For your name's sake, O LORD, preserve my life!
In your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble!
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 145:7 - They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness
and shall sing aloud of your righteousness.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 145:12 - to make known to the children of man your[fn] mighty deeds,
and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:7 - to execute vengeance on the nations
and punishments on the peoples,
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:8 - to bind their kings with chains
and their nobles with fetters of iron,
Unchecked Copy BoxPsa 149:9 - to execute on them the judgment written!
This is honor for all his godly ones.
Praise the LORD!
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 1:16 - for their feet run to evil,
and they make haste to shed blood.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:8 - guarding the paths of justice
and watching over the way of his saints.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:13 - who forsake the paths of uprightness
to walk in the ways of darkness,
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 2:16 - So you will be delivered from the forbidden[fn] woman,
from the adulteress[fn] with her smooth words,
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 3:16 - Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 5:18 - Let your fountain be blessed,
and rejoice in the wife of your youth,
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 6:24 - to preserve you from the evil woman,[fn]
from the smooth tongue of the adulteress.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:8 - All the words of my mouth are righteous;
there is nothing twisted or crooked in them.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:24 - When there were no depths I was brought forth,
when there were no springs abounding with water.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 8:25 - Before the mountains had been shaped,
before the hills, I was brought forth,
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:9 - Give instruction[fn] to a wise man, and he will be still wiser;
teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 9:12 - If you are wise, you are wise for yourself;
if you scoff, you alone will bear it.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 16:23 - The heart of the wise makes his speech judicious
and adds persuasiveness to his lips.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 17:16 - Why should a fool have money in his hand to buy wisdom
when he has no sense?
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 21:13 - Whoever closes his ear to the cry of the poor
will himself call out and not be answered.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:14 - The mouth of forbidden[fn] women is a deep pit;
he with whom the LORD is angry will fall into it.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 22:21 - to make you know what is right and true,
that you may give a true answer to those who sent you?
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 24:32 - Then I saw and considered it;
I looked and received instruction.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 28:9 - If one turns away his ear from hearing the law,
even his prayer is an abomination.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 30:7 - Two things I ask of you;
deny them not to me before I die:
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:7 - All streams run to the sea,
but the sea is not full;
to the place where the streams flow,
there they flow again.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:8 - All things are full of weariness;
a man cannot utter it;
the eye is not satisfied with seeing,
nor the ear filled with hearing.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:13 - And I applied my heart[fn] to seek and to search out by wisdom all that is done under heaven. It is an unhappy business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:15 - What is crooked cannot be made straight,
and what is lacking cannot be counted.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:17 - And I applied my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also is but a striving after wind.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:3 - I searched with my heart how to cheer my body with wine—my heart still guiding me with wisdom—and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the children of man to do under heaven during the few days of their life.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:6 - I made myself pools from which to water the forest of growing trees.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:11 - Then I considered all that my hands had done and the toil I had expended in doing it, and behold, all was vanity and a striving after wind, and there was nothing to be gained under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:12 - So I turned to consider wisdom and madness and folly. For what can the man do who comes after the king? Only what has already been done.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:13 - Then I saw that there is more gain in wisdom than in folly, as there is more gain in light than in darkness.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:20 - So I turned about and gave my heart up to despair over all the toil of my labors under the sun,
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:26 - For to the one who pleases him God has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, but to the sinner he has given the business of gathering and collecting, only to give to one who pleases God. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:2 - a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:3 - a time to kill, and a time to heal;
a time to break down, and a time to build up;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:4 - a time to weep, and a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:5 - a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:6 - a time to seek, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:7 - a time to tear, and a time to sew;
a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:8 - a time to love, and a time to hate;
a time for war, and a time for peace.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:10 - I have seen the business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:12 - I perceived that there is nothing better for them than to be joyful and to do good as long as they live;
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:15 - That which is, already has been; that which is to be, already has been; and God seeks what has been driven away.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:18 - I said in my heart with regard to the children of man that God is testing them that they may see that they themselves are but beasts.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:19 - For what happens to the children of man and what happens to the beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts, for all is vanity.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:21 - Who knows whether the spirit of man goes upward and the spirit of the beast goes down into the earth?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:22 - So I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should rejoice in his work, for that is his lot. Who can bring him to see what will be after him?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:4 - Then I saw that all toil and all skill in work come from a man's envy of his neighbor. This also is vanity[fn] and a striving after wind.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:10 - For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up!
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:13 - Better was a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king who no longer knew how to take advice.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:14 - For he went from prison to the throne, though in his own kingdom he had been born poor.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:1 - [fn] Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:2 - [fn] Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven and you are on earth. Therefore let your words be few.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:4 - When you vow a vow to God, do not delay paying it, for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you vow.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:6 - Let not your mouth lead you[fn] into sin, and do not say before the messenger[fn] that it was a mistake. Why should God be angry at your voice and destroy the work of your hands?
