Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:18 - And Isaac dug again the wells of water that had been dug in the days of Abraham his father, which the Philistines had stopped after the death of Abraham. And he gave them the names that his father had given them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:24 - And the LORD appeared to him the same night and said, “I am the God of Abraham your father. Fear not, for I am with you and will bless you and multiply your offspring for my servant Abraham's sake.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:1 - When Isaac was old and his eyes were dim so that he could not see, he called Esau his older son and said to him, “My son”; and he answered, “Here I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:5 - Now Rebekah was listening when Isaac spoke to his son Esau. So when Esau went to the field to hunt for game and bring it,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:6 - Rebekah said to her son Jacob, “I heard your father speak to your brother Esau,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:15 - Then Rebekah took the best garments of Esau her older son, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob her younger son.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:22 - So Jacob went near to Isaac his father, who felt him and said, “The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:30 - As soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, when Jacob had scarcely gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, Esau his brother came in from his hunting.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:38 - Esau said to his father, “Have you but one blessing, my father? Bless me, even me also, O my father.” And Esau lifted up his voice and wept.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:41 - Now Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him, and Esau said to himself, “The days of mourning for my father are approaching; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:42 - But the words of Esau her older son were told to Rebekah. So she sent and called Jacob her younger son and said to him, “Behold, your brother Esau comforts himself about you by planning to kill you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:43 - Now therefore, my son, obey my voice. Arise, flee to Laban my brother in Haran
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:44 - and stay with him a while, until your brother's fury turns away—
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:1 - Then Isaac called Jacob and blessed him and directed him, “You must not take a wife from the Canaanite women.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:2 - Arise, go to Paddan-aram to the house of Bethuel your mother's father, and take as your wife from there one of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.
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 28:6 - Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan-aram to take a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he directed him, “You must not take a wife from the Canaanite women,”
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 28:18 - So early in the morning Jacob took the stone that he had put under his head and set it up for a pillar and poured oil on the top of it.
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 29:3 - and when all the flocks were gathered there, the shepherds would roll the stone from the mouth of the well and water the sheep, and put the stone back in its place over the mouth of the well.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:5 - He said to them, “Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?” They said, “We know him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:8 - But they said, “We cannot until all the flocks are gathered together and the stone is rolled from the mouth of the well; then we water the sheep.”
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 29:13 - 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 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 30:18 - Leah said, “God has given me my wages because I gave my servant to my husband.” So she called his name Issachar.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:25 - As soon as Rachel had borne Joseph, Jacob said to Laban, “Send me away, that I may go to my own home and country.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:28 - Name your wages, and I will give it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:7 - yet your father has cheated me and changed my wages ten times. But God did not permit him to harm me.
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 31:18 - He drove away all his livestock, all his property that he had gained, the livestock in his possession that he had acquired in Paddan-aram, to go to the land of Canaan to his father Isaac.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:20 - And Jacob tricked[fn] Laban the Aramean, by not telling him that he intended to flee.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:21 - He fled with all that he had and arose and crossed the Euphrates,[fn] and set his face toward the hill country of Gilead.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:24 - But God came to Laban the Aramean in a dream by night and said to him, “Be careful not to say anything to Jacob, either good or bad.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:25 - And Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the hill country, and Laban with his kinsmen pitched tents in the hill country of Gilead.
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 31:41 - These twenty years I have been in your house. I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock, and you have changed my wages ten times.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:52 - This heap is a witness, and the pillar is a witness, that I will not pass over this heap to you, and you will not pass over this heap and this pillar to me, to do harm.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:55 - [fn] Early in the morning Laban arose and kissed his grandchildren and his daughters and blessed them. Then Laban departed and returned home.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:3 - And Jacob sent[fn] messengers before him to Esau his brother in the land of Seir, the country of Edom,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:6 - And the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother Esau, and he is coming to meet you, and there are four hundred men with him.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:7 - Then Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed. He divided the people who were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two camps,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:10 - I am not worthy of the least of all the deeds of steadfast love and all the faithfulness that you have shown to your servant, for with only my staff I crossed this Jordan, and now I have become two camps.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:23 - He took them and sent them across the stream, and everything else that he had.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:4 - But Esau ran to meet him and embraced him and fell on his neck and kissed him, and they wept.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:5 - And when Esau lifted up his eyes and saw the women and children, he said, “Who are these with you?” Jacob said, “The children whom God has graciously given your servant.”
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 33:20 - There he erected an altar and called it El-Elohe-Israel.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:4 - So Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, “Get me this girl for my wife.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:11 - Shechem also said to her father and to her brothers, “Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you say to me I will give.
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 35:27 - And Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kiriath-arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had sojourned.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:4 - And Adah bore to Esau, Eliphaz; Basemath bore Reuel;
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 36:5 - and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan.
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 36:24 - 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 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 37:3 - Now Israel loved Joseph more than any other of his sons, because he was the son of his old age. And he made him a robe of many colors.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:19 - They said to one another, “Here comes this dreamer.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:22 - And Reuben said to them, “Shed no blood; throw him into this pit here in the wilderness, but do not lay a hand on him”—that he might rescue him out of their hand to restore him to his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:23 - So when Joseph came to his brothers, they stripped him of his robe, the robe of many colors that he wore.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:24 - And they took him and threw him into a pit. The pit was empty; there was no water in it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:26 - Then Judah said to his brothers, “What profit is it if we kill our brother and conceal his blood?
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 37:29 - When Reuben returned to the pit and saw that Joseph was not in the pit, he tore his clothes
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 37:34 - Then Jacob tore his garments and put sackcloth on his loins and mourned for his son many days.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:35 - All his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted and said, “No, I shall go down to Sheol to my son, mourning.” Thus his father wept for him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:36 - Meanwhile the Midianites had sold him in Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:18 - He said, “What pledge shall I give you?” She replied, “Your signet and your cord and your staff that is in your hand.” So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she conceived by him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:20 - When Judah sent the 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 38:23 - And Judah replied, “Let her keep the things as her own, or we shall be laughed at. You see, I sent this young goat, and you did not find her.”
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 39:5 - 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 39:16 - Then she laid up his garment by her until his master came home,
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 39:23 - The keeper of the prison paid no attention to anything that was in Joseph's charge, because the LORD was with him. And whatever he did, the LORD made it succeed.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:3 - and he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison where Joseph was confined.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:15 - For I was indeed stolen out of the land of the Hebrews, and here also I have done nothing that they should put me into the pit.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:21 - He restored the chief cupbearer to his position, and he placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:22 - But he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them.
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 41:14 - Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they quickly brought him out of the pit. And when he had shaved himself and changed his clothes, he came in before Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:40 - You shall be over my house, and all my people shall order themselves as you command.[fn] Only as regards the throne will I be greater than you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:42 - Then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and clothed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain about his neck.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:4 - But Jacob did not send Benjamin, Joseph's brother, with his brothers, for he feared that harm might happen to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:16 - Send one of you, and let him bring your brother, while you remain confined, that your words may be tested, whether there is truth in you. Or else, by the life of Pharaoh, surely you are spies.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:18 - On the third day Joseph said to them, “Do this and you will live, for I fear God:
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:19 - if you are honest men, let one of your brothers remain confined where you are in custody, and let the rest go and carry grain for the famine of your households,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:20 - and bring your youngest brother to me. So your words will be verified, and you shall not die.” And they did so.
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 42:24 - Then he turned away from them and wept. And he returned to them and spoke to them. And he took Simeon from them and bound him before their eyes.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:25 - And Joseph gave orders to fill their bags with grain, and to replace every man's money in his sack, and to give them provisions for the journey. This was done for them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:26 - Then they loaded their donkeys with their grain and departed.
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 42:29 - When they came to Jacob their father in the land of Canaan, they told him all that had happened to them, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:33 - Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I shall know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your households, and go your way.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:34 - Bring your youngest brother to me. Then I shall know that you are not spies but honest men, and I will deliver your brother to you, and you shall trade in the land.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:36 - And Jacob their father said to them, “You have bereaved me of my children: Joseph is no more, and Simeon is no more, and now you would take Benjamin. All this has come against me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:2 - And when they had eaten the grain that they had brought from Egypt, their father said to them, “Go again, buy us a little food.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:4 - If you will send our brother with us, we will go down and buy you food.
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 43:7 - They replied, “The man questioned us carefully about ourselves and our kindred, saying, ‘Is your father still alive? Do you have another brother?' What we told him was in answer to these questions. Could we in any way know that he would say, ‘Bring your brother down'?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:8 - And Judah said to Israel his father, “Send the boy 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 43:13 - Take also your brother, and arise, go again to the man.
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 43:15 - So the men took this present, and they took double the money with them, and Benjamin. They arose and went down to Egypt and stood before Joseph.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:16 - When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the steward of his house, “Bring the men into the house, and slaughter an animal and make ready, for the men are to dine with me at noon.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:17 - The man did as Joseph told him and brought the men to Joseph's house.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:18 - And the men were afraid because they were brought to Joseph's house, and they said, “It is because of the money, which was replaced in our sacks the first time, that we are brought in, so that he may assault us and fall upon us to make us servants and seize our donkeys.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:19 - So they went up to the steward of Joseph's house and spoke with him at the door of the house,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:23 - He replied, “Peace to you, do not be afraid. Your God and the God of your father has put treasure in your sacks for you. I received your money.” Then he brought Simeon out to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:26 - When Joseph came home, they brought into the house to him the present that they had with them and bowed down to him to the ground.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:29 - And he lifted up his eyes and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, “Is this your youngest brother, of whom you spoke to me? God be gracious to you, my son!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:33 - And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright and the youngest according to his youth. And the men looked at one another in amazement.
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 44:11 - Then each man quickly lowered his sack to the ground, and each man opened his sack.
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 44:13 - Then they tore their clothes, and every man loaded his donkey, and they returned to the city.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:17 - But he said, “Far be it from me that I should do so! Only the man in whose hand the cup was found shall be my servant. But as for you, go up in peace to your father.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 44:22 - We said to my lord, ‘The boy cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, his father would die.'
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 44:30 - “Now therefore, as soon as I come to your servant my father, and the boy is not with us, then, as his life is bound up in the boy's life,
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 44:34 - For how can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? I fear to see the evil that would find my father.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:2 - And he wept aloud, so that the Egyptians heard it, and the household of Pharaoh heard it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:9 - Hurry and go up to my father and say to him, ‘Thus says your son Joseph, God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me; do not tarry.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:13 - You must tell my father of all my honor in Egypt, and of all that you have seen. Hurry and bring my father down here.”
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 45:16 - When the report was heard in Pharaoh's house, “Joseph's brothers have come,” it pleased Pharaoh and his servants.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:18 - and take your father and your households, and come to me, and I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you shall eat the fat of the land.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:19 - And you, Joseph, are commanded to say, ‘Do this: take wagons from the land of Egypt for your little ones and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 45:25 - So they went up out of Egypt and came to the land of Canaan to their father Jacob.
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 46:20 - And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera the priest of On, bore to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:21 - And the sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:28 - He had sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to show the way before him in Goshen, and they came into the land of Goshen.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 46:29 - Then Joseph prepared his chariot and went up to meet Israel his father in Goshen. He presented himself to him and fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:6 - The land of Egypt is before you. Settle your father and your brothers in the best of the land. Let them settle in the land of Goshen, and if you know any able men among them, put them in charge of my livestock.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:7 - Then Joseph brought in Jacob his father and stood him before Pharaoh, and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:10 - And Jacob blessed Pharaoh and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:11 - Then Joseph settled his father and his brothers and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:14 - 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 47:21 - As for the people, he made servants of them[fn] from one end of Egypt to the other.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 47:29 - And when the time drew near that Israel must die, he called his son Joseph and said to him, “If now I have found favor in your sight, put your hand under my thigh and promise to deal kindly and truly with me. Do not bury me in Egypt,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 48:1 - After this, Joseph was told, “Behold, your father is ill.” So he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
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 48:13 - And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near him.
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 49:11 - Binding his foal to the vine
and his donkey's colt to the choice vine,
he has washed his garments in wine
and his vesture in the blood of grapes.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:15 - He saw that a resting place was good,
and that the land was pleasant,
so he bowed his shoulder to bear,
and became a servant at forced labor.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 49:16 - “Dan shall judge his people
as one of the tribes of Israel.
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 49:33 - When Jacob finished commanding his sons, he drew up his feet into the bed and breathed his last and was gathered to his people.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:2 - And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:5 - ‘My father made me swear, saying, “I am about to die: in my tomb that I hewed out for myself in the land of Canaan, there shall you bury me.” Now therefore, let me please go up and bury my father. Then I will return.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 50:6 - And Pharaoh answered, “Go up, and bury your father, as he made you swear.”
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 50:14 - After he had buried his father, Joseph returned to Egypt with his brothers and all who had gone up with him to bury his father.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:8 - Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who did not know Joseph.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:17 - But the midwives feared God and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but let the male children live.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:21 - And because the midwives feared God, he gave them families.
Unchecked Copy BoxExo 1:22 - Then Pharaoh commanded all his people, “Every son that is born to the Hebrews[fn] you shall cast into the Nile, but you shall let every daughter live.”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:39 - and David strapped his sword over his armor. And he tried in vain to go, for he had not tested them. Then David said to Saul, “I cannot go with these, for I have not tested them.” So David put them off.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 17:40 - Then he took his staff in his hand and chose five smooth stones from the brook and put them in his shepherd's pouch. His sling was in his hand, and he approached the Philistine.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 19:5 - For he took his life in his hand and he struck down the Philistine, and the LORD worked a great salvation for all Israel. You saw it, and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood by killing David without cause?”

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 20:41 - And as soon as the boy had gone, David rose from beside the stone heap[fn] and fell on his face to the ground and bowed three times. And they kissed one another and wept with one another, David weeping the most.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 21:13 - So he changed his behavior before them and pretended to be insane in their hands and made marks on the doors of the gate and let his spittle run down his beard.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:8 - that all of you have conspired against me? No one discloses to me when my son makes a covenant with the son of Jesse. None of you is sorry for me or discloses to me that my son has stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as at this day.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:9 - Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who stood by the servants of Saul, “I saw the son of Jesse coming to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub,

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 22:15 - Is today the first time that I have inquired of God for him? No! Let not the king impute anything to his servant or to all the house of my father, for your servant has known nothing of all this, much or little.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 23:8 - And Saul summoned all the people to war, to go down to Keilah, to besiege David and his men.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:4 - And the men of David said to him, “Here is the day of which the LORD said to you, ‘Behold, I will give your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it shall seem good to you.'” Then David arose and stealthily cut off a corner of Saul's robe.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:7 - So David persuaded his men with these words and did not permit them to attack Saul. And Saul rose up and left the cave and went on his way.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:19 - For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away safe? So may the LORD reward you with good for what you have done to me this day.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 24:22 - And David swore this to Saul. Then Saul went home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:17 - Now therefore know this and consider what you should do, for harm is determined against our master and against all his house, and he is such a worthless man that one cannot speak to him.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:23 - When Abigail saw David, she hurried and got down from the donkey and fell before David on her face and bowed to the ground.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:25 - Let not my lord regard this worthless fellow, Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal[fn] is his name, and folly is with him. But I your servant did not see the young men of my lord, whom you sent.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:38 - And about ten days later the LORD struck Nabal, and he died.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:39 - When David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, “Blessed be the LORD who has avenged the insult I received at the hand of Nabal, and has kept back his servant from wrongdoing.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:7 - So David and Abishai went to the army by night. And there lay Saul sleeping within the encampment, with his spear stuck in the ground at his head, and Abner and the army lay around him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:8 - Then Abishai said to David, “God has given your enemy into your hand this day. Now please let me pin him to the earth with one stroke of the spear, and I will not strike him twice.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:11 - The LORD forbid that I should put out my hand against the LORD's anointed. But take now the spear that is at his head and the jar of water, and let us go.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:12 - So David took the spear and the jar of water from Saul's head, and they went away. No man saw it or knew it, nor did any awake, for they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from the LORD had fallen upon them.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:14 - And David called to the army, and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, “Will you not answer, Abner?” Then Abner answered, “Who are you who calls to the king?”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:15 - And David said to Abner, “Are you not a man? Who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not kept watch over your lord the king? For one of the people came in to destroy the king your lord.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:16 - This thing that you have done is not good. As the LORD lives, you deserve to die, because you have not kept watch over your lord, the LORD's anointed. And now see where the king's spear is and the jar of water that was at his head.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:25 - Then Saul said to David, “Blessed be you, my son David! You will do many things and will succeed in them.” So David went his way, and Saul returned to his place.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 28:12 - When the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice. And the woman said to Saul, “Why have you deceived me? You are Saul.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 28:19 - Moreover, the LORD will give Israel also with you into the hand of the Philistines, and tomorrow you and your sons shall be with me. The LORD will give the army of Israel also into the hand of the Philistines.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 28:23 - He refused and said, “I will not eat.” But his servants, together with the woman, urged him, and he listened to their words. So he arose from the earth and sat on the bed.
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:4 - But the commanders of the Philistines were angry with him. And the commanders of the Philistines said to him, “Send the man back, that he may return to the place to which you have assigned him. He shall not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us. For how could this fellow reconcile himself to his lord? Would it not be with the heads of the men here?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:6 - Then Achish called David and said to him, “As the LORD lives, you have been honest, and to me it seems right that you should march out and in with me in the campaign.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:2 - I will come upon him while he is weary and discouraged and throw him into a panic, and all the people who are with him will flee. I will strike down only the king,

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:27 - He has slandered your servant to my lord the king. But my lord the king is like the angel of God; do therefore what seems good to you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:28 - For all my father's house were but men doomed to death before my lord the king, but you set your servant among those who eat at your table. What further right have I, then, to cry to the king?”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:35 - I am this day eighty years old. Can I discern what is pleasant and what is not? Can your servant taste what he eats or what he drinks? Can I still listen to the voice of singing men and singing women? Why then should your servant be an added burden to my lord the king?
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:36 - Your servant will go a little way over the Jordan with the king. Why should the king repay me with such a reward?
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:39 - Then all the people went over the Jordan, and the king went over. And the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him, and he returned to his own home.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:41 - Then all the men of Israel came to the king and said to the king, “Why have our brothers the men of Judah stolen you away and brought the king and his household over the Jordan, and all David's men with him?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:43 - And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, “We have ten shares in the king, and in David also we have more than you. Why then did you despise us?

Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:10 - I have seen the business that God has given to the children of man to be busy with.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:11 - He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also, he has put eternity into man's heart, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:14 - I perceived that whatever God does endures forever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it. God has done it, so that people fear before him.
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 3:16 - Moreover, I saw under the sun that in the place of justice, even there was wickedness, and in the place of righteousness, even there was wickedness.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:17 - I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for there is a time for every matter and for every work.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 3:20 - All go to one place. All are from the dust, and to dust all return.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:1 - Again I saw all the oppressions that are done under the sun. And behold, the tears of the oppressed, and they had no one to comfort them! On the side of their oppressors there was power, and there was no one to comfort them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:3 - But better than both is he who has not yet been and has not seen the evil deeds that are done under the sun.
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 4:7 - Again, I saw vanity under the sun:
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:9 - Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil.
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 4:15 - I saw all the living who move about under the sun, along with that[fn] youth who was to stand in the king's[fn] place.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:7 - For when dreams increase and words grow many, there is vanity;[fn] but[fn] God is the one you must fear.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:13 - There is a grievous evil that I have seen under the sun: riches were kept by their owner to his hurt,
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:18 - Behold, what I have seen to be good and fitting is to eat and drink and find enjoyment[fn] in all the toil with which one toils under the sun the few days of his life that God has given him, for this is his lot.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:1 - There is an evil that I have seen under the sun, and it lies heavy on mankind:
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:8 - For what advantage has the wise man over the fool? And what does the poor man have who knows how to conduct himself before the living?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:12 - For who knows what is good for man while he lives the few days of his vain[fn] life, which he passes like a shadow? For who can tell man what will be after him under the sun?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:6 - For as the crackling of thorns under a pot,
so is the laughter of the fools;
this also is vanity.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:11 - Wisdom is good with an inheritance,
an advantage to those who see the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:12 - For the protection of wisdom is like the protection of money,
and the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:18 - It is good that you should take hold of this, and from that withhold not your hand, for the one who fears God shall come out from both of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:29 - See, this alone I found, that God made man upright, but they have sought out many schemes.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:8 - No man has power to retain the spirit, or power over the day of death. There is no discharge from war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:9 - All this I observed while applying my heart to all that is done under the sun, when man had power over man to his hurt.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:12 - Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and prolongs his life, yet I know that it will be well with those who fear God, because they fear before him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:15 - And I commend joy, for man has nothing better under the sun but to eat and drink and be joyful, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of his life that God has given him under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 8:16 - When I applied my heart to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done on earth, how neither day nor night do one's eyes see sleep,
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 9:2 - It is the same for all, since the same event happens to the righteous and the wicked, to the good and the evil,[fn] to the clean and the unclean, to him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As the good one is, so is the sinner, and he who swears is as he who shuns an oath.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:3 - This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that 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 9:4 - But he who is joined with all the living has hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:6 - Their love and their hate and their envy have already perished, and forever they have no more share in all that is done under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:9 - Enjoy life with the wife whom you love, all the days of your vain[fn] life that he has given you under the sun, because that is your portion in life and in your toil at which you toil under the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:11 - Again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to those with knowledge, but time and chance happen to them all.
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 9:13 - I have also seen this example of wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great to me.
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 11:1 - Cast your bread upon the waters,
for you will find it after many days.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:7 - Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for the eyes to see the sun.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:6 - before the silver cord is snapped, or the golden bowl is broken, or the pitcher is shattered at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern,
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:7 - and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:9 - Besides being wise, the Preacher also taught the people knowledge, weighing and studying and arranging many proverbs with great care.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:13 - The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.[fn]
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 5:3 - I had put off my garment;
how could I put it on?
I had bathed my feet;
how could I soil them?
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 8:5 - Who is that coming up from the wilderness,
leaning on her beloved?
Under the apple tree I awakened you.
There your mother was in labor with you;
there she who bore you was in labor.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:6 - Set me as a seal upon your heart,
as a seal upon your arm,
for love is strong as death,
jealousy[fn] is fierce as the grave.[fn]
Its flashes are flashes of fire,
the very flame of the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:7 - Many waters cannot quench love,
neither can floods drown it.
If a man offered for love
all the wealth of his house,
he[fn] would be utterly despised.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:11 - Solomon had a vineyard at Baal-hamon;
he let out the vineyard to keepers;
each one was to bring for its fruit a thousand pieces of silver.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:12 - My vineyard, my very own, is before me;
you, O Solomon, may have the thousand,
and the keepers of the fruit two hundred.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:3 - The ox knows its owner,
and the donkey its master's crib,
but Israel does not know,
my people do not understand.”
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:4 - Ah, sinful nation,
a people laden with iniquity,
offspring of evildoers,
children who deal corruptly!
They have forsaken the LORD,
they have despised the Holy One of Israel,
they are utterly estranged.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:22 - Your silver has become dross,
your best wine mixed with water.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 1:28 - But rebels and sinners shall be broken together,
and those who forsake the LORD shall be consumed.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 2:3 - and many peoples shall come, and say:
“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 2:6 - For you have rejected your people,
the house of Jacob,
because they are full of things from the east
and of fortune-tellers like the Philistines,
and they strike hands with the children of foreigners.

every one his fellow
and every one his neighbor;

and the despised to the honorable.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:10 - Tell the righteous that it shall be well with them,
for they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:12 - My people—infants are their oppressors,
and women rule over them.
O my people, your guides mislead you
and they have swallowed up[fn] the course of your paths.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:13 - The LORD has taken his place to contend;
he stands to judge peoples.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:14 - The LORD will enter into judgment
with the elders and princes of his people:
“It is you who have devoured[fn] the vineyard,
the spoil of the poor is in your houses.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:15 - What do you mean by crushing my people,
by grinding the face of the poor?”
declares the Lord GOD of hosts.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 3:19 - the pendants, the bracelets, and the scarves;
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 4:1 - And seven women shall take hold of one man in that day, saying, “We will eat our own bread and wear our own clothes, only let us be called by your name; take away our reproach.”
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 4:4 - when the Lord shall have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion and cleansed the bloodstains of Jerusalem from its midst by a spirit of judgment and by a spirit of burning.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:5 - And now I will tell you
what I will do to my vineyard.
I will remove its hedge,
and it shall be devoured;[fn]
I will break down its wall,
and it shall be trampled down.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:6 - I will make it a waste;
it shall not be pruned or hoed,
and briers and thorns shall grow up;
I will also command the clouds
that they rain no rain upon it.
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:12 - They have lyre and harp,
tambourine and flute and wine at their feasts,
but they do not regard the deeds of the LORD,

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:23 - who acquit the guilty for a bribe,

and as dry grass sinks down in the flame,
so their root will be as rottenness,
and their blossom go up like dust;

Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 5:25 - Therefore the anger of the LORD was kindled against his people,

in the midst of the streets.
For all this his anger has not turned away,
and his hand is stretched out still.
