Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:25 - The first came out red, all his body like a hairy cloak, so they called his name Esau.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 25:26 - Afterward his brother came out with his hand holding Esau's heel, so his name was called Jacob.[fn] Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:5 - because Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:8 - When he had been there a long time, Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out of a window and saw Isaac laughing with[fn] Rebekah his wife.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:11 - So Abimelech warned all the people, saying, “Whoever touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 26:13 - and the man became rich, and gained more and more until he became very wealthy.
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 26:26 - When Abimelech went to him from Gerar with Ahuzzath his adviser and Phicol the commander of his army,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:10 - And you shall bring it to your father to eat, so that he may bless you before he dies.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:11 - But Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “Behold, my brother Esau is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:12 - Perhaps my father will feel me, and I shall seem to be mocking him and bring a curse upon myself and not a blessing.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:14 - So he went and took them and brought them to his mother, and his mother prepared delicious food, such as his father loved.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:18 - So he went in to his father and said, “My father.” And he said, “Here I am. Who are you, my son?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:19 - Jacob said to his father, “I am Esau your firstborn. I have done as you told me; now sit up and eat of my game, that your soul may bless me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:20 - But Isaac said to his son, “How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?” He answered, “Because the LORD your God granted me success.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:21 - Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come near, that I may feel you, my son, to know whether you are really my son Esau or not.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:24 - He said, “Are you really my son Esau?” He answered, “I am.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:26 - Then his father Isaac said to him, “Come near and kiss me, my son.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:28 - May God give you of the dew of heaven
and of the fatness of the earth
and plenty of grain and wine.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:29 - Let peoples serve you,
and nations bow down to you.
Be lord over your brothers,
and may your mother's sons bow down to you.
Cursed be everyone who curses you,
and blessed be everyone who blesses you!”
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 27:31 - He also prepared delicious food and brought it to his father. And he said to his father, “Let my father arise and eat of his son's game, that you may bless me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:32 - His father Isaac said to him, “Who are you?” He answered, “I am your son, your firstborn, Esau.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:33 - Then Isaac trembled very violently and said, “Who was it then that hunted game and brought it to me, and I ate it all before you came, and I have blessed him? Yes, and he shall be blessed.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:35 - But he said, “Your brother came deceitfully, and he has taken away your blessing.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 27:39 - Then Isaac his father answered and said to him:
“Behold, away from[fn] the fatness of the earth shall your dwelling be,
and away from[fn] the dew of heaven on high.
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 28:3 - God Almighty[fn] bless you and make you fruitful and multiply you, that you may become a company of peoples.
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 28:11 - 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 28:13 - 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 28:17 - 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 28:20 - Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat and clothing to wear,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 28:22 - and this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, shall be God's house. And of all that you give me I will give a full tenth to you.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:15 - Then Laban said to Jacob, “Because you are my kinsman, should you therefore serve me for nothing? Tell me, what shall your wages be?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:32 - And Leah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben,[fn] for she said, “Because the LORD has looked upon my affliction; for now my husband will love me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 29:34 - Again she conceived and bore a son, and said, “Now this time my husband will be attached to me, because I have borne him three sons.” Therefore his name was called Levi.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:6 - Then Rachel said, “God has judged me, and has also heard my voice and given me a son.” Therefore she called his name Dan.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:8 - Then Rachel said, “With mighty wrestlings[fn] I have wrestled with my sister and have prevailed.” So she called his name Naphtali.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:17 - And God listened to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son.
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 30:20 - Then Leah said, “God has endowed me with a good endowment; now my husband will honor me, because I have borne him six sons.” So she called his name Zebulun.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:22 - Then God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her and opened her womb.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:23 - She conceived and bore a son and said, “God has taken away my reproach.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:24 - And she called his name Joseph,[fn] saying, “May the LORD add to me another son!”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:27 - But Laban said to him, “If I have found favor in your sight, I have learned by divination that[fn] the LORD has blessed me because of you.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:33 - So my honesty will answer for me later, when you come to look into my wages with you. Every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats and black among the lambs, if found with me, shall be counted stolen.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 30:43 - Thus the man increased greatly and had large flocks, female servants and male servants, and camels and donkeys.
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 31:7 - yet your father has cheated me and changed my wages ten times. But God did not permit him to harm me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 31:9 - 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 31:13 - I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed a pillar and made a vow to me. Now arise, go out from this land and return to the land of your kindred.'”
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 31:24 - 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 31:29 - 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 31:40 - There I was: by day the heat consumed me, and the cold by night, and my sleep fled from my eyes.
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 31:44 - Come now, let us make a covenant, you and I. And let it be a witness between you and me.”
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 31:48 - Laban said, “This heap is a witness between you and me today.” Therefore he named it Galeed,
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 32:4 - instructing them, “Thus you shall say to my lord Esau: Thus says your servant Jacob, ‘I have sojourned with Laban and stayed until now.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:5 - I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, male servants, and female servants. I have sent to tell my lord, in order that I may find favor in your sight.'”
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 32:17 - He instructed the first, “When Esau my brother meets you and asks you, ‘To whom do you belong? Where are you going? And whose are these ahead of you?'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:20 - and you shall say, ‘Moreover, your servant Jacob is behind us.'” For he thought, “I may appease him[fn] with the present that goes ahead of me, and afterward I shall see his face. Perhaps he will accept me.”[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:26 - Then he said, “Let me go, for the day has broken.” But Jacob said, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:27 - And he said to him, “What is your name?” And he said, “Jacob.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 32:31 - The sun rose upon him as he passed Penuel, limping because of his hip.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:1 - And Jacob lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, Esau was coming, and four hundred men with him. So he divided the children among Leah and Rachel and the two female servants.
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 33:8 - Esau said, “What do you mean by all this company[fn] that I met?” Jacob answered, “To find favor in the sight of my lord.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:11 - Please accept my blessing that is brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough.” Thus he urged him, and he took it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 33:13 - But Jacob said to him, “My lord knows that the children are frail, and that the nursing flocks and herds are a care to me. If they are driven hard for one day, all the flocks will die.
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 34:2 - And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her, he seized her and lay with her and humiliated her.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:5 - Now Jacob heard that he had defiled his daughter Dinah. But his sons were with his livestock in the field, so Jacob held his peace until they came.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:6 - And Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:8 - But Hamor spoke with them, saying, “The soul of my son Shechem longs for your[fn] daughter. Please give her to him to be his wife.
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 34:20 - So Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 34:30 - Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble on me by making me stink to the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Perizzites. My numbers are few, and if they gather themselves against me and attack me, I shall be destroyed, both I and my household.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:1 - God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there. Make an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:6 - And Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:7 - and there he built an altar and called the place El-bethel,[fn] because there God had revealed himself to him when he fled from his brother.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:9 - God appeared[fn] to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and blessed him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:10 - And God said to him, “Your name is Jacob; no longer shall your name be called Jacob, but Israel shall be your name.” So he called his name Israel.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 35:11 - And God said to him, “I am God Almighty:[fn] be fruitful and multiply. A nation and a company of nations shall come from you, and kings shall come from your own body.[fn]
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 35:18 - And as her soul was departing (for she was dying), she called his name Ben-oni;[fn] but his father called him Benjamin.[fn]
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 36:35 - Husham died, and Hadad the son of Bedad, who defeated Midian in the country of Moab, reigned in his place, the name of his city being Avith.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:1 - Jacob lived in the land of his father's sojournings, in the land of Canaan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:4 - But when his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they hated him and could not speak peacefully to him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:9 - Then he dreamed another dream and told it to his brothers and said, “Behold, I have dreamed another dream. Behold, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:10 - But when he told it to his father and to his brothers, his father rebuked him and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall I and your mother and your brothers indeed come to bow ourselves to the ground before you?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:11 - And his brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the saying in mind.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:15 - And a man found him wandering in the fields. And the man asked him, “What are you seeking?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:16 - “I am seeking my brothers,” he said. “Tell me, please, where they are pasturing the flock.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:17 - And the man said, “They have gone away, for I heard them say, ‘Let us go to Dothan.'” So Joseph went after his brothers and found them at Dothan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 37:19 - They said to one another, “Here comes this dreamer.
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 37:35 - 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 38:7 - But Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD, and the LORD put him to death.
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 38:12 - In the course of time the wife of Judah, Shua's daughter, died. When Judah was comforted, he went up to Timnah to his sheepshearers, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:13 - And when Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:17 - He answered, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.” And she said, “If you give me a pledge, until you send it—”
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 38:25 - 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 38:28 - And when she was in labor, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, “This one came out first.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:29 - But as he drew back his hand, behold, his brother came out. And she said, “What a breach you have made for yourself!” Therefore his name was called Perez.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 38:30 - Afterward his brother came out with the scarlet thread on his hand, and his name was called Zerah.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:1 - Now Joseph had been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, had bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:3 - His master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD caused all that he did to succeed in his hands.
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 39:16 - Then she laid up his garment by her until his master came home,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:17 - and she told him the same story, saying, “The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought among us, came in to me to laugh at me.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:19 - As soon as his master heard the words that his wife spoke to him, “This is the way your servant treated me,” his anger was kindled.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:20 - And Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were confined, and he was there in prison.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 39:22 - And the keeper of the prison put Joseph in charge of all the prisoners who were in the prison. Whatever was done there, he was the one who did it.
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 40:1 - 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 40:4 - The captain of the guard appointed Joseph to be with them, and he attended them. They continued for some time in custody.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:5 - And one night they both dreamed—the cupbearer and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison—each his own dream, and each dream with its own interpretation.
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 40:9 - So the chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph and said to him, “In my dream there was a vine before me,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 40:16 - When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was favorable, he said to Joseph, “I also had a dream: there were three cake baskets on my head,
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 40:23 - Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:8 - So in the morning his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt and all its wise men. Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was none who could interpret them to Pharaoh.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:9 - Then the chief cupbearer said to Pharaoh, “I remember my offenses today.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:15 - And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. I have heard it said of you that when you hear a dream you can interpret it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:24 - and the thin ears swallowed up the seven good ears. And I told it to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:25 - Then Joseph said to Pharaoh, “The dreams of Pharaoh are one; God has revealed to Pharaoh what he is about to do.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:28 - It is as I told Pharaoh; God has shown to Pharaoh what he is about to do.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:30 - but after them there will arise seven years of famine, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt. The famine will consume the land,
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:32 - 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 41:35 - And let them gather all the food of these good years that are coming and store up grain under the authority of Pharaoh for food in the cities, and let them keep it.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:39 - Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has shown you all this, there is none so discerning and wise as you are.
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 41:51 - 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 41:55 - When all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, “Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:56 - So when the famine had spread over all the land, Joseph opened all the storehouses[fn] and sold to the Egyptians, for the famine was severe in the land of Egypt.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 41:57 - Moreover, all the earth came to Egypt to Joseph to buy grain, because the famine was severe over all the earth.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:5 - Thus the sons of Israel came to buy among the others who came, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:13 - And they said, “We, your servants, are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan, and behold, the youngest is this day with our father, and one is no more.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:15 - By this you shall be tested: by the life of Pharaoh, you shall not go from this place unless your youngest brother comes here.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:23 - They did not know that Joseph understood them, for there was an interpreter between them.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:28 - He said to his brothers, “My money has been put back; here it is in the mouth of my sack!” At this their hearts failed them, and they turned trembling to one another, saying, “What is this that God has done to us?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:30 - “The man, the lord of the land, spoke roughly to us and took us to be spies of the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:32 - We are twelve brothers, sons of our father. One is no more, and the youngest is this day with our father in the land of Canaan.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:33 - Then the man, the lord of the land, said to us, ‘By this I shall know that you are honest men: leave one of your brothers with me, and take grain for the famine of your households, and go your way.
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 42:35 - As they emptied their sacks, behold, every man's bundle of money was in his sack. And when they and their father saw their bundles of money, they were afraid.
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 42:38 - But he said, “My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he is the only one left. If harm should happen to him on the journey that you are to make, you would bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol.”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:1 - Now the famine was severe in the land.
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 43:3 - But Judah said to him, “The man solemnly warned us, saying, ‘You shall not see my face unless your brother is with you.'
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:5 - But if you will not send him, we will not go down, for the man said to us, ‘You shall not see my face, unless your brother is with you.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:7 - 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 43:11 - Then their father Israel said to them, “If it must be so, then do this: take some of the choice fruits of the land in your bags, and carry a present down to the man, a little balm and a little honey, gum, myrrh, pistachio nuts, and almonds.
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 43:17 - The man did as Joseph told him and brought the men to Joseph's 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 43:27 - And he inquired about their welfare and said, “Is your father well, the old man of whom you spoke? Is he still alive?”
Unchecked Copy BoxGen 43:28 - They said, “Your servant our father is well; he is still alive.” And they bowed their heads and prostrated themselves.

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 25:28 - Please forgive the trespass of your servant. For the LORD will certainly make my lord a sure house, because my lord is fighting the battles of the LORD, and evil shall not be found in you so long as you live.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:33 - Blessed be your discretion, and blessed be you, who have kept me this day from bloodguilt and from working salvation with my own hand!
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 25:34 - For as surely as the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, who has restrained me from hurting you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, truly by morning there had not been left to Nabal so much as one male.”

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 26:18 - And he said, “Why does my lord pursue after his servant? For what have I done? What evil is on my hands?
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 26:19 - Now therefore let my lord the king hear the words of his servant.

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

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 29:3 - the commanders of the Philistines said, “What are these Hebrews doing here?” And Achish said to the commanders of the Philistines, “Is this not David, the servant of Saul, king of Israel, who has been with me now for days and years, and since he deserted to me I have found no fault in him to this day.”
Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 30:6 - And David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because all the people were bitter in soul,[fn] each for his sons and daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God.

Unchecked Copy Box1Sa 31:4 - Then Saul said to his armor-bearer, “Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and mistreat me.” But his armor-bearer would not, for he feared greatly. Therefore Saul took his own sword and fell upon it.

“Should Abner die as a fool dies?
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 3:34 - Your hands were not bound;

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:19 - And yet this was a small thing in your eyes, O Lord GOD. You have spoken also of your servant's house for a great while to come, and this is instruction for mankind, O Lord GOD!
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:23 - And who is like your people Israel, the one nation on earth whom God went to redeem to be his people, making himself a name and doing for them[fn] great and awesome things by driving out before your people,[fn] whom you redeemed for yourself from Egypt, a nation and its gods?
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:27 - For you, O LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, have made this revelation to your servant, saying, ‘I will build you a house.' Therefore your servant has found courage to pray this prayer to you.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:28 - And now, O Lord GOD, you are God, and your words are true, and you have promised this good thing to your servant.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 7:29 - Now therefore may it please you to bless the house of your servant, so that it may continue forever before you. For you, O Lord GOD, have spoken, and with your blessing shall the house of your servant be blessed forever.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 10:2 - And David said, “I will deal loyally[fn] with Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father dealt loyally with me.” So David sent by his servants to console him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the Ammonites.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 10:5 - When it was told David, he sent to meet them, for the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, “Remain at Jericho until your beards have grown and then return.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 10:6 - When the Ammonites saw that they had become a stench to David, the Ammonites sent and hired the Syrians of Beth-rehob, and the Syrians of Zobah, 20,000 foot soldiers, and the king of Maacah with 1,000 men, and the men of Tob, 12,000 men.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:17 - And the men of the city came out and fought with Joab, and some of the servants of David among the people fell. Uriah the Hittite also died.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:20 - then, if the king's anger rises, and if he says to you, ‘Why did you go so near the city to fight? Did you not know that they would shoot from the wall?
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:21 - Who killed Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Did not a woman cast an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died at Thebez? Why did you go so near the wall?' then you shall say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:22 - So the messenger went and came and told David all that Joab had sent him to tell.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:23 - The messenger said to David, “The men gained an advantage over us and came out against us in the field, but we drove them back to the entrance of the gate.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:24 - Then the archers shot at your servants from the wall. Some of the king's servants are dead, and your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 11:26 - When the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she lamented over her husband.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:5 - Then David's anger was greatly kindled against the man, and he said to Nathan, “As the LORD lives, the man who has done this deserves to die,
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:7 - Nathan said to David, “You are the man! Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, ‘I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you out of the hand of Saul.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:14 - Nevertheless, because by this deed you have utterly scorned the LORD,[fn] the child who is born to you shall die.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:30 - And he took the crown of their king from his head. The weight of it was a talent[fn] of gold, and in it was a precious stone, and it was placed on David's head. And he brought out the spoil of the city, a very great amount.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 12:31 - And he brought out the people who were in it and set them to labor with saws and iron picks and iron axes and made them toil at[fn] the brick kilns. And thus he did to all the cities of the Ammonites. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:5 - Jonadab said to him, “Lie down on your bed and pretend to be ill. And when your father comes to see you, say to him, ‘Let my sister Tamar come and give me bread to eat, and prepare the food in my sight, that I may see it and eat it from her hand.'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:6 - So Amnon lay down and pretended to be ill. And when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, “Please let my sister Tamar come and make a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:18 - Now she was wearing a long robe with sleeves,[fn] for thus were the virgin daughters of the king dressed. So his servant put her out and bolted the door after her.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:20 - And her brother Absalom said to her, “Has Amnon your brother been with you? Now hold your peace, my sister. He is your brother; do not take this to heart.” So Tamar lived, a desolate woman, in her brother Absalom's house.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:24 - And Absalom came to the king and said, “Behold, your servant has sheepshearers. Please let the king and his servants go with your servant.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:25 - But the king said to Absalom, “No, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome to you.” He pressed him, but he would not go but gave him his blessing.

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:32 - But Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David's brother, said, “Let not my lord suppose that they have killed all the young men, the king's sons, for Amnon alone is dead. For by the command of Absalom this has been determined from the day he violated his sister Tamar.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:33 - Now therefore let not my lord the king so take it to heart as to suppose that all the king's sons are dead, for Amnon alone is dead.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:34 - But Absalom fled. And the young man who kept the watch lifted up his eyes and looked, and behold, many people were coming from the road behind him[fn] by the side of the mountain.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:36 - And as soon as he had finished speaking, behold, the king's sons came and lifted up their voice and wept. And the king also and all his servants wept very bitterly.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 13:37 - But Absalom fled and went to Talmai the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son day after day.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:5 - And the king said to her, “What is your trouble?” She answered, “Alas, I am a widow; my husband is dead.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:6 - And your servant had two sons, and they quarreled with one another in the field. There was no one to separate them, and one struck the other and killed him.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:8 - Then the king said to the woman, “Go to your house, and I will give orders concerning you.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:9 - And the woman of Tekoa said to the king, “On me be the guilt, my lord the king, and on my father's house; let the king and his throne be guiltless.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:10 - The king said, “If anyone says anything to you, bring him to me, and he shall never touch you again.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:11 - Then she said, “Please let the king invoke the LORD your God, that the avenger of blood kill no more, and my son be not destroyed.” He said, “As the LORD lives, not one hair of your son shall fall to the ground.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:13 - And the woman said, “Why then have you planned such a thing against the people of God? For in giving this decision the king convicts himself, inasmuch as the king does not bring his banished one home again.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:14 - We must all die; we are like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. But God will not take away life, and he devises means so that the banished one will not remain an outcast.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:15 - Now I have come to say this to my lord the king because the people have made me afraid, and your servant thought, ‘I will speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his servant.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:16 - For the king will hear and deliver his servant from the hand of the man who would destroy me and my son together from the heritage of God.'
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:17 - And your servant thought, ‘The word of my lord the king will set me at rest,' for my lord the king is like the angel of God to discern good and evil. The LORD your God be with you!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:18 - Then the king answered the woman, “Do not hide from me anything I ask you.” And the woman said, “Let my lord the king speak.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:19 - The king said, “Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?” The woman answered and said, “As surely as you live, my lord the king, one cannot turn to the right hand or to the left from anything that my lord the king has said. It was your servant Joab who commanded me; it was he who put all these words in the mouth of your servant.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:20 - In order to change the course of things your servant Joab did this. But my lord has wisdom like the wisdom of the angel of God to know all things that are on the earth.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:21 - Then the king said to Joab, “Behold now, I grant this; go, bring back the young man Absalom.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:22 - And Joab fell on his face to the ground and paid homage and blessed the king. And Joab said, “Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, my lord the king, in that the king has granted the request of his servant.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:24 - And the king said, “Let him dwell apart in his own house; he is not to come into my presence.” So Absalom lived apart in his own house and did not come into the king's presence.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 14:33 - Then Joab went to the king and told him, and he summoned Absalom. So he came to the king and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king, and the king kissed Absalom.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:2 - And Absalom used to rise early and stand beside the way of the gate. And when any man had a dispute to come before the king for judgment, Absalom would call to him and say, “From what city are you?” And when he said, “Your servant is of such and such a tribe in Israel,”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:8 - For your servant vowed a vow while I lived at Geshur in Aram, saying, ‘If the LORD will indeed bring me back to Jerusalem, then I will offer worship to[fn] the LORD.'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:9 - The king said to him, “Go in peace.” So he arose and went to Hebron.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:12 - And while Absalom was offering the sacrifices, he sent for[fn] Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city Giloh. And the conspiracy grew strong, and the people with Absalom kept increasing.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:13 - And a messenger came to David, saying, “The hearts of the men of Israel have gone after Absalom.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:15 - And the king's servants said to the king, “Behold, your servants are ready to do whatever my lord the king decides.”

Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:17 - And the king went out, and all the people after him. And they halted at the last house.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:18 - And all his servants passed by him, and all the Cherethites, and all the Pelethites, and all the six hundred Gittites who had followed him from Gath, passed on before the king.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:19 - Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, “Why do you also go with us? Go back and stay with the king, for you are a foreigner and also an exile from your home.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:21 - But Ittai answered the king, “As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, wherever my lord the king shall be, whether for death or for life, there also will your servant be.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:22 - And David said to Ittai, “Go then, pass on.” So Ittai the Gittite passed on with all his men and all the little ones who were with him.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:23 - And all the land wept aloud as all the people passed by, and the king crossed the brook Kidron, and all the people passed on toward the wilderness.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:24 - And Abiathar came up, and behold, Zadok came also with all the Levites, bearing the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God until the people had all passed out of the city.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:25 - Then the king said to Zadok, “Carry the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me back and let me see both it and his dwelling place.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:27 - The king also said to Zadok the priest, “Are you not a seer? Go back[fn] to the city in peace, with your two sons, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:30 - But David went up the ascent of the Mount of Olives, weeping as he went, barefoot and with his head covered. And all the people who were with him covered their heads, and they went up, weeping as they went.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:31 - And it was told David, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” And David said, “O LORD, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:32 - While David was coming to the summit, where God was worshiped, behold, Hushai the Archite came to meet him with his coat torn and dirt on his head.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:34 - But if you return to the city and say to Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, O king; as I have been your father's servant in time past, so now I will be your servant,' then you will defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 15:37 - So Hushai, David's friend, came into the city, just as Absalom was entering Jerusalem.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:2 - And the king said to Ziba, “Why have you brought these?” Ziba answered, “The donkeys are for the king's household to ride on, the bread and summer fruit for the young men to eat, and the wine for those who faint in the wilderness to drink.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:3 - And the king said, “And where is your master's son?” Ziba said to the king, “Behold, he remains in Jerusalem, for he said, ‘Today the house of Israel will give me back the kingdom of my father.'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:4 - Then the king said to Ziba, “Behold, all that belonged to Mephibosheth is now yours.” And Ziba said, “I pay homage; let me ever find favor in your sight, my lord the king.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:5 - When King David came to Bahurim, there came out a man of the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei, the son of Gera, and as he came he cursed continually.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:6 - And he threw stones at David and at all the servants of King David, and all the people and all the mighty men were on his right hand and on his left.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:7 - And Shimei said as he cursed, “Get out, get out, you man of blood, you worthless man!
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:9 - Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, “Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Let me go over and take off his head.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:10 - But the king said, “What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? If he is cursing because the LORD has said to him, ‘Curse David,' who then shall say, ‘Why have you done so?'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:11 - And David said to Abishai and to all his servants, “Behold, my own son seeks my life; how much more now may this Benjaminite! Leave him alone, and let him curse, for the LORD has told him to.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:14 - And the king, and all the people who were with him, arrived weary at the Jordan.[fn] And there he refreshed himself.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:16 - And when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, came to Absalom, Hushai said to Absalom, “Long live the king! Long live the king!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 16:18 - And Hushai said to Absalom, “No, for whom the LORD and this people and all the men of Israel have chosen, his I will be, and with him I will remain.
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 17:4 - And the advice seemed right in the eyes of Absalom and all the elders of Israel.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:8 - Hushai said, “You know that your father and his men are mighty men, and that they are enraged,[fn] like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field. Besides, your father is expert in war; he will not spend the night with the people.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:9 - Behold, even now he has hidden himself in one of the pits or in some other place. And as soon as some of the people fall[fn] at the first attack, whoever hears it will say, ‘There has been a slaughter among the people who follow Absalom.'
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:10 - Then even the valiant man, whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will utterly melt with fear, for all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man, and that those who are with him are valiant men.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:15 - Then Hushai said to Zadok and Abiathar the priests, “Thus and so did Ahithophel counsel Absalom and the elders of Israel, and thus and so have I counseled.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:22 - Then David arose, and all the people who were with him, and they crossed the Jordan. By daybreak not one was left who had not crossed the Jordan.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:25 - Now Absalom had set Amasa over the army instead of Joab. Amasa was the son of a man named Ithra the Ishmaelite,[fn] who had married Abigal the daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, Joab's mother.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:27 - When David came to Mahanaim, Shobi the son of Nahash from Rabbah of the Ammonites, and Machir the son of Ammiel from Lo-debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim,
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 17:29 - honey and curds and sheep and cheese from the herd, for David and the people with him to eat, for they said, “The people are hungry and weary and thirsty in the wilderness.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:4 - The king said to them, “Whatever seems best to you I will do.” So the king stood at the side of the gate, while all the army marched out by hundreds and by thousands.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:5 - And the king ordered Joab and Abishai and Ittai, “Deal gently for my sake with the young man Absalom.” And all the people heard when the king gave orders to all the commanders about Absalom.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:6 - So the army went out into the field against Israel, and the battle was fought in the forest of Ephraim.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:7 - And the men of Israel were defeated there by the servants of David, and the loss there was great on that day, twenty thousand men.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:8 - The battle spread over the face of all the country, and the forest devoured more people that day than the sword.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:9 - And Absalom happened to meet the servants of David. Absalom was riding on his mule, and the mule went under the thick branches of a great oak,[fn] and his head caught fast in the oak, and he was suspended between heaven and earth, while the mule that was under him went on.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:12 - But the man said to Joab, “Even if I felt in my hand the weight of a thousand pieces of silver, I would not reach out my hand against the king's son, for in our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, ‘For my sake protect the young man Absalom.'
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:13 - On the other hand, if I had dealt treacherously against his life[fn] (and there is nothing hidden from the king), then you yourself would have stood aloof.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:16 - Then Joab blew the trumpet, and the troops came back from pursuing Israel, for Joab restrained them.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:20 - And Joab said to him, “You are not to carry news today. You may carry news another day, but today you shall carry no news, because the king's son is dead.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:24 - Now David was sitting between the two gates, and the watchman went up to the roof of the gate by the wall, and when he lifted up his eyes and looked, he saw a man running alone.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:25 - The watchman called out and told the king. And the king said, “If he is alone, there is news in his mouth.” And he drew nearer and nearer.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:26 - The watchman saw another man running. And the watchman called to the gate and said, “See, another man running alone!” The king said, “He also brings news.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:27 - The watchman said, “I think the running of the first is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok.” And the king said, “He is a good man and comes with good news.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:28 - Then Ahimaaz cried out to the king, “All is well.” And he bowed before the king with his face to the earth and said, “Blessed be the LORD your God, who has delivered up the men who raised their hand against my lord the king.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:29 - And the king said, “Is it well with the young man Absalom?” Ahimaaz answered, “When Joab sent the king's servant, your servant, I saw a great commotion, but I do not know what it was.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:30 - And the king said, “Turn aside and stand here.” So he turned aside and stood still.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:31 - And behold, the Cushite came, and the Cushite said, “Good news for my lord the king! For the LORD has delivered you this day from the hand of all who rose up against you.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:32 - The king said to the Cushite, “Is it well with the young man Absalom?” And the Cushite answered, “May the enemies of my lord the king and all who rise up against you for evil be like that young man.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 18:33 - [fn] And the king was deeply moved and went up to the chamber over the gate and wept. And as he went, he said, “O my son Absalom, my son, my son Absalom! Would I had died instead of you, O Absalom, my son, my son!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:1 - It was told Joab, “Behold, the king is weeping and mourning for Absalom.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:2 - So the victory that day was turned into mourning for all the people, for the people heard that day, “The king is grieving for his son.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:3 - And the people stole into the city that day as people steal in who are ashamed when they flee in battle.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:4 - The king covered his face, and the king cried with a loud voice, “O my son Absalom, O Absalom, my son, my son!”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:8 - Then the king arose and took his seat in the gate. And the people were all told, “Behold, the king is sitting in the gate.” And all the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his own home.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:9 - And all the people were arguing throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, “The king delivered us from the hand of our enemies and saved us from the hand of the Philistines, and now he has fled out of the land from Absalom.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:11 - And King David sent this message to Zadok and Abiathar the priests: “Say to the elders of Judah, ‘Why should you be the last to bring the king back to his house, when the word of all Israel has come to the king?[fn]
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:13 - And say to Amasa, ‘Are you not my bone and my flesh? God do so to me and more also, if you are not commander of my army from now on in place of Joab.'”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:15 - So the king came back to the Jordan, and Judah came to Gilgal to meet the king and to bring the king over the Jordan.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:19 - and said to the king, “Let not my lord hold me guilty or remember how your servant did wrong on the day my lord the king left Jerusalem. Do not let the king take it to heart.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:20 - For your servant knows that I have sinned. Therefore, behold, I have come this day, the first of all the house of Joseph to come down to meet my lord the king.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:23 - And the king said to Shimei, “You shall not die.” And the king gave him his oath.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:24 - And Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king. He had neither taken care of his feet nor trimmed his beard nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he came back in safety.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:25 - And when he came to Jerusalem to meet the king, the king said to him, “Why did you not go with me, Mephibosheth?”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:26 - He answered, “My lord, O king, my servant deceived me, for your servant said to him, ‘I will saddle a donkey for myself,[fn] that I may ride on it and go with the king.' For your servant is lame.
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 19:29 - And the king said to him, “Why speak any more of your affairs? I have decided: you and Ziba shall divide the land.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:31 - Now Barzillai the Gileadite had come down from Rogelim, and he went on with the king to the Jordan, to escort him over the Jordan.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:33 - And the king said to Barzillai, “Come over with me, and I will provide for you with me in Jerusalem.”
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 19:37 - Please let your servant return, that I may die in my own city near the grave of my father and my mother. But here is your servant Chimham. Let him go over with my lord the king, and do for him whatever seems good to you.”
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:38 - And the king answered, “Chimham shall go over with me, and I will do for him whatever seems good to you, and all that you desire of me I will do for you.”
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 19:40 - The king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him. All the people of Judah, and also half the people of Israel, brought the king on his way.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 19:42 - All the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, “Because the king is our close relative. Why then are you angry over this matter? Have we eaten at all at the king's expense? Or has he given us any gift?”
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? Were we not the first to speak of bringing back our king?” But the words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.
Unchecked Copy Box2Sa 20:1 - Now there happened to be there a worthless man, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bichri, a Benjaminite. And he blew the trumpet and said,
“We have no portion in David,
and we have no inheritance in the son of Jesse;

Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:6 - So Haman came in, and the king said to him, “What should be done to the man whom the king delights to honor?” And Haman said to himself, “Whom would the king delight to honor more than me?”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:7 - And Haman said to the king, “For the man whom the king delights to honor,
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:8 - let royal robes be brought, which the king has worn, and the horse that the king has ridden, and on whose head a royal crown[fn] is set.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:9 - And let the robes and the horse be handed over to one of the king's most noble officials. Let them dress the man whom the king delights to honor, and let them lead him on the horse through the square of the city, proclaiming before him: ‘Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor.'”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:10 - Then the king said to Haman, “Hurry; take the robes and the horse, as you have said, and do so to Mordecai the Jew, who sits at the king's gate. Leave out nothing that you have mentioned.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:11 - So Haman took the robes and the horse, and he dressed Mordecai and led him through the square of the city, proclaiming before him, “Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 6:12 - Then Mordecai returned to the king's gate. But Haman hurried to his house, mourning and with his head covered.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:1 - So the king and Haman went in to feast with Queen Esther.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:2 - And on the second day, as they were drinking wine after the feast, the king again said to Esther, “What is your wish, Queen Esther? It shall be granted you. And what is your request? Even to the half of my kingdom, it shall be fulfilled.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:3 - Then Queen Esther answered, “If I have found favor in your sight, O king, and if it please the king, let my life be granted me for my wish, and my people for my request.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:4 - For we have been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be killed, and to be annihilated. If we had been sold merely as slaves, men and women, I would have been silent, for our affliction is not to be compared with the loss to the king.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:5 - Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther, “Who is he, and where is he, who has dared[fn] to do this?”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:6 - And Esther said, “A foe and enemy! This wicked Haman!” Then Haman was terrified before the king and the queen.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:7 - And the king arose in his wrath from the wine-drinking and went into the palace garden, but Haman stayed to beg for his life from Queen Esther, for he saw that harm was determined against him by the king.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:8 - And the king returned from the palace garden to the place where they were drinking wine, as Haman was falling on the couch where Esther was. And the king said, “Will he even assault the queen in my presence, in my own house?” As the word left the mouth of the king, they covered Haman's face.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:9 - Then Harbona, one of the eunuchs in attendance on the king, said, “Moreover, the gallows[fn] that Haman has prepared for Mordecai, whose word saved the king, is standing at Haman's house, fifty cubits[fn] high.” And the king said, “Hang him on that.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 7:10 - So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the wrath of the king abated.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:1 - On that day King Ahasuerus gave to Queen Esther the house of Haman, the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had told what he was to her.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:2 - And the king took off his signet ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai. And Esther set Mordecai over the house of Haman.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:4 - When the king held out the golden scepter to Esther, Esther rose and stood before the king.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:7 - Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and to Mordecai the Jew, “Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and they have hanged him on the gallows,[fn] because he intended to lay hands on the Jews.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 8:15 - Then Mordecai went out from the presence of the king in royal robes of blue and white, with a great golden crown[fn] and a robe of fine linen and purple, and the city of Susa shouted and rejoiced.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:3 - All the officials of the provinces and the satraps and the governors and the royal agents also helped the Jews, for the fear of Mordecai had fallen on them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:11 - That very day the number of those killed in Susa the citadel was reported to the king.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:12 - And the king said to Queen Esther, “In Susa the citadel the Jews have killed and destroyed 500 men and also the ten sons of Haman. What then have they done in the rest of the king's provinces! Now what is your wish? It shall be granted you. And what further is your request? It shall be fulfilled.”
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:23 - So the Jews accepted what they had started to do, and what Mordecai had written to them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:24 - For Haman the Agagite, the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast Pur (that is, cast lots), to crush and to destroy them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 9:29 - Then Queen Esther, the daughter of Abihail, and Mordecai the Jew gave full written authority, confirming this second letter about Purim.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 10:1 - King Ahasuerus imposed tax on the land and on the coastlands of the sea.
Unchecked Copy BoxEst 10:3 - For Mordecai the Jew was second in rank to King Ahasuerus, and he was great among the Jews and popular with the multitude of his brothers, for he sought the welfare of his people and spoke peace to all his people.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:1 - There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job, and that man was blameless and upright, one who feared God and turned away from evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:3 - He possessed 7,000 sheep, 3,000 camels, 500 yoke of oxen, and 500 female donkeys, and very many servants, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:6 - Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan[fn] also came among them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:7 - The LORD said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Satan answered the LORD and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:8 - And the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:9 - Then Satan answered the LORD and said, “Does Job fear God for no reason?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:12 - And the LORD said to Satan, “Behold, all that he has is in your hand. Only against him do not stretch out your hand.” So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 1:21 - And he said, “Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked shall I return. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:1 - Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them to present himself before the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:2 - And the LORD said to Satan, “From where have you come?” Satan answered the LORD and said, “From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:3 - And the LORD said to Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you incited me against him to destroy him without reason.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:4 - Then Satan answered the LORD and said, “Skin for skin! All that a man has he will give for his life.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:6 - And the LORD said to Satan, “Behold, he is in your hand; only spare his life.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:7 - So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD and struck Job with loathsome sores from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:10 - But he said to her, “You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good from God, and shall we not receive evil?”[fn] In all this Job did not sin with his lips.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 2:11 - Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. They made an appointment together to come to show him sympathy and comfort him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:4 - Let that day be darkness!
May God above not seek it,
nor light shine upon it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:8 - Let those curse it who curse the day,
who are ready to rouse up Leviathan.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:15 - or with princes who had gold,
who filled their houses with silver.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 3:23 - Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden,
whom God has hedged in?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:1 - Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 4:6 - Is not your fear of God[fn] your confidence,
and the integrity of your ways your hope?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:4 - His children are far from safety;
they are crushed in the gate,
and there is no one to deliver them.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:13 - He catches the wise in their own craftiness,
and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:17 - “Behold, blessed is the one whom God reproves;
therefore despise not the discipline of the Almighty.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 5:24 - You shall know that your tent is at peace,
and you shall inspect your fold and miss nothing.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:4 - For the arrows of the Almighty are in me;
my spirit drinks their poison;
the terrors of God are arrayed against me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:8 - “Oh that I might have my request,
and that God would fulfill my hope,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:9 - that it would please God to crush me,
that he would let loose his hand and cut me off!
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:11 - What is my strength, that I should wait?
And what is my end, that I should be patient?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:26 - Do you think that you can reprove words,
when the speech of a despairing man is wind?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 6:30 - Is there any injustice on my tongue?
Cannot my palate discern the cause of calamity?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:1 - “Has not man a hard service on earth,
and are not his days like the days of a hired hand?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:6 - My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle
and come to their end without hope.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:7 - “Remember that my life is a breath;
my eye will never again see good.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:10 - he returns no more to his house,
nor does his place know him anymore.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:16 - I loathe my life; I would not live forever.
Leave me alone, for my days are a breath.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 7:20 - If I sin, what do I do to you, you watcher of mankind?
Why have you made me your mark?
Why have I become a burden to you?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:1 - Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:3 - Does God pervert justice?
Or does the Almighty pervert the right?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:9 - For we are but of yesterday and know nothing,
for our days on earth are a shadow.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:14 - His confidence is severed,
and his trust is a spider's web.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:16 - He is a lush plant before the sun,
and his shoots spread over his garden.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:18 - If he is destroyed from his place,
then it will deny him, saying, ‘I have never seen you.'
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 8:20 - “Behold, God will not reject a blameless man,
nor take the hand of evildoers.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:5 - he who removes mountains, and they know it not,
when he overturns them in his anger,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:6 - who shakes the earth out of its place,
and its pillars tremble;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:7 - who commands the sun, and it does not rise;
who seals up the stars;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:8 - who alone stretched out the heavens
and trampled the waves of the sea;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:9 - who made the Bear and Orion,
the Pleiades and the chambers of the south;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:10 - who does great things beyond searching out,
and marvelous things beyond number.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:25 - “My days are swifter than a runner;
they flee away; they see no good.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:33 - There is no[fn] arbiter between us,
who might lay his hand on us both.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 9:34 - Let him take his rod away from me,
and let not dread of him terrify me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 10:5 - Are your days as the days of man,
or your years as a man's years,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 10:7 - although you know that I am not guilty,
and there is none to deliver out of your hand?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 10:20 - Are not my days few?
Then cease, and leave me alone, that I may find a little cheer
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:1 - Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:2 - “Should a multitude of words go unanswered,
and a man full of talk be judged right?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:3 - Should your babble silence men,
and when you mock, shall no one shame you?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:5 - But oh, that God would speak
and open his lips to you,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:7 - “Can you find out the deep things of God?
Can you find out the limit of the Almighty?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:8 - It is higher than heaven[fn]—what can you do?
Deeper than Sheol—what can you know?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 11:19 - You will lie down, and none will make you afraid;
many will court your favor.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 12:25 - They grope in the dark without light,
and he makes them stagger like a drunken man.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:1 - “Behold, my eye has seen all this,
my ear has heard and understood it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:15 - Though he slay me, I will hope in him;[fn]
yet I will argue my ways to his face.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:19 - Who is there who will contend with me?
For then I would be silent and die.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 13:21 - withdraw your hand far from me,
and let not dread of you terrify me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:5 - Since his days are determined,
and the number of his months is with you,
and you have appointed his limits that he cannot pass,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:6 - look away from him and leave him alone,[fn]
that he may enjoy, like a hired hand, his day.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:7 - “For there is hope for a tree,
if it be cut down, that it will sprout again,
and that its shoots will not cease.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 14:12 - so a man lies down and rises not again;
till the heavens are no more he will not awake
or be roused out of his sleep.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:1 - Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:20 - The wicked man writhes in pain all his days,
through all the years that are laid up for the ruthless.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:21 - Dreadful sounds are in his ears;
in prosperity the destroyer will come upon him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 15:32 - It will be paid in full before his time,
and his branch will not be green.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:11 - God gives me up to the ungodly
and casts me into the hands of the wicked.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:19 - Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven,
and he who testifies for me is on high.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 16:20 - My friends scorn me;
my eye pours out tears to God,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 17:13 - If I hope for Sheol as my house,
if I make my bed in darkness,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:1 - Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:6 - The light is dark in his tent,
and his lamp above him is put out.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:8 - For he is cast into a net by his own feet,
and he walks on its mesh.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:19 - He has no posterity or progeny among his people,
and no survivor where he used to live.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 18:21 - Surely such are the dwellings of the unrighteous,
such is the place of him who knows not God.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:3 - These ten times you have cast reproach upon me;
are you not ashamed to wrong me?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:6 - know then that God has put me in the wrong
and closed his net about me.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:22 - Why do you, like God, pursue me?
Why are you not satisfied with my flesh?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:25 - For I know that my Redeemer lives,
and at the last he will stand upon the earth.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 19:27 - whom I shall see for myself,
and my eyes shall behold, and not another.
My heart faints within me!
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:1 - Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:9 - The eye that saw him will see him no more,
nor will his place any more behold him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 20:27 - The heavens will reveal his iniquity,
and the earth will rise up against him.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:8 - Their offspring are established in their presence,
and their descendants before their eyes.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:22 - Will any teach God knowledge,
seeing that he judges those who are on high?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:25 - Another dies in bitterness of soul,
never having tasted of prosperity.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 21:30 - that the evil man is spared in the day of calamity,
that he is rescued in the day of wrath?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:1 - Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:2 - “Can a man be profitable to God?
Surely he who is wise is profitable to himself.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:12 - “Is not God high in the heavens?
See the highest stars, how lofty they are!
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:13 - But you say, ‘What does God know?
Can he judge through the deep darkness?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:17 - They said to God, ‘Depart from us,'
and ‘What can the Almighty do to us?'[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:21 - “Agree with God, and be at peace;
thereby good will come to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 22:25 - then the Almighty will be your gold
and your precious silver.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:13 - But he is unchangeable,[fn] and who can turn him back?
What he desires, that he does.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 23:16 - God has made my heart faint;
the Almighty has terrified me;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 24:25 - If it is not so, who will prove me a liar
and show that there is nothing in what I say?”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 25:1 - Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 25:2 - “Dominion and fear are with God;[fn]
he makes peace in his high heaven.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 26:6 - Sheol is naked before God,[fn]
and Abaddon has no covering.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 26:9 - He covers the face of the full moon[fn]
and spreads over it his cloud.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:2 - “As God lives, who has taken away my right,
and the Almighty, who has made my soul bitter,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 27:18 - He builds his house like a moth's,
like a booth that a watchman makes.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:10 - He cuts out channels in the rocks,
and his eye sees every precious thing.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:22 - Abaddon and Death say,
‘We have heard a rumor of it with our ears.'
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 28:23 - “God understands the way to it,
and he knows its place.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:2 - “Oh, that I were as in the months of old,
as in the days when God watched over me,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:3 - when his lamp shone upon my head,
and by his light I walked through darkness,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:4 - as I was in my prime,[fn]
when the friendship of God was upon my tent,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 29:7 - When I went out to the gate of the city,
when I prepared my seat in the square,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 30:31 - My lyre is turned to mourning,
and my pipe to the voice of those who weep.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:2 - What would be my portion from God above
and my heritage from the Almighty on high?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:5 - “If I have walked with falsehood
and my foot has hastened to deceit;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:6 - (Let me be weighed in a just balance,
and let God know my integrity!)
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:7 - if my step has turned aside from the way
and my heart has gone after my eyes,
and if any spot has stuck to my hands,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:14 - what then shall I do when God rises up?
When he makes inquiry, what shall I answer him?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 31:22 - then let my shoulder blade fall from my shoulder,
and let my arm be broken from its socket.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:2 - Then Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, burned with anger. He burned with anger at Job because he justified himself rather than God.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:6 - And Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite answered and said:
“I am young in years,
and you are aged;
therefore I was timid and afraid
to declare my opinion to you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 32:7 - I said, ‘Let days speak,
and many years teach wisdom.'
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:7 - Behold, no fear of me need terrify you;
my pressure will not be heavy upon you.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:12 - “Behold, in this you are not right. I will answer you,
for God is greater than man.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:14 - For God speaks in one way,
and in two, though man does not perceive it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 33:29 - “Behold, God does all these things,
twice, three times, with a man,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:5 - For Job has said, ‘I am in the right,
and God has taken away my right;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:12 - Of a truth, God will not do wickedly,
and the Almighty will not pervert justice.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:13 - Who gave him charge over the earth,
and who laid on him[fn] the whole world?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:18 - who says to a king, ‘Worthless one,'
and to nobles, ‘Wicked man,'
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:23 - For God[fn] has no need to consider a man further,
that he should go before God in judgment.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:24 - He shatters the mighty without investigation
and sets others in their place.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:25 - Thus, knowing their works,
he overturns them in the night, and they are crushed.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 34:31 - “For has anyone said to God,
‘I have borne punishment; I will not offend any more;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:10 - But none says, ‘Where is God my Maker,
who gives songs in the night,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:11 - who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth
and makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?'
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 35:13 - Surely God does not hear an empty cry,
nor does the Almighty regard it.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:5 - “Behold, God is mighty, and does not despise any;
he is mighty in strength of understanding.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:19 - Will your cry for help avail to keep you from distress,
or all the force of your strength?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:22 - Behold, God is exalted in his power;
who is a teacher like him?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:23 - Who has prescribed for him his way,
or who can say, ‘You have done wrong'?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 36:26 - Behold, God is great, and we know him not;
the number of his years is unsearchable.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:5 - God thunders wondrously with his voice;
he does great things that we cannot comprehend.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:15 - Do you know how God lays his command upon them
and causes the lightning of his cloud to shine?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 37:23 - The Almighty—we cannot find him;
he is great in power;
justice and abundant righteousness he will not violate.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:1 - Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:2 - “Who is this that darkens counsel by words without knowledge?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:5 - Who determined its measurements—surely you know!
Or who stretched the line upon it?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:6 - On what were its bases sunk,
or who laid its cornerstone,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:19 - “Where is the way to the dwelling of light,
and where is the place of darkness,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:28 - “Has the rain a father,
or who has begotten the drops of dew?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:29 - From whose womb did the ice come forth,
and who has given birth to the frost of heaven?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 38:37 - Who can number the clouds by wisdom?
Or who can tilt the waterskins of the heavens,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:5 - “Who has let the wild donkey go free?
Who has loosed the bonds of the swift donkey,
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 39:17 - because God has made her forget wisdom
and given her no share in understanding.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:1 - And the LORD said to Job:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:6 - Then the LORD answered Job out of the whirlwind and said:
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 40:23 - Behold, if the river is turbulent he is not frightened;
he is confident though Jordan rushes against his mouth.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 41:10 - No one is so fierce that he dares to stir him up.
Who then is he who can stand before me?
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:3 - ‘Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?'
Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand,
things too wonderful for me, which I did not know.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:5 - I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear,
but now my eye sees you;
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:7 - After the LORD had spoken these words to Job, the LORD said to Eliphaz the Temanite: “My anger burns against you and against your two friends, for you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:8 - Now therefore take seven bulls and seven rams and go to my servant Job and offer up a burnt offering for yourselves. And my servant Job shall pray for you, for I will accept his prayer not to deal with you according to your folly. For you have not spoken of me what is right, as my servant Job has.”
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:9 - So Eliphaz the Temanite and Bildad the Shuhite and Zophar the Naamathite went and did what the LORD had told them, and the LORD accepted Job's prayer.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:10 - And the LORD restored the fortunes of Job, when he had prayed for his friends. And the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.
Unchecked Copy BoxJob 42:11 - Then came to him all his brothers and sisters and all who had known him before, and ate bread with him in his house.

Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:21 - She is not afraid of snow for her household,
for all her household are clothed in scarlet.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:23 - Her husband is known in the gates
when he sits among the elders of the land.
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:28 - Her children rise up and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
Unchecked Copy BoxPro 31:31 - Give her of the fruit of her hands,
and let her works praise her in the gates.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:2 - Vanity[fn] of vanities, says the Preacher,
vanity of vanities! All is vanity.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 1:5 - The sun rises, and the sun goes down,
and hastens[fn] to the place where it rises.
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 1:18 - For in much wisdom is much vexation,
and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.
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 2:14 - The wise person has his eyes in his head, but the fool walks in darkness. And yet I perceived that the same event happens to all of them.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 2:16 - For of the wise as of the fool there is no enduring remembrance, seeing that in the days to come all will have been long forgotten. How the wise dies just like the fool!
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 3:13 - also that everyone should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil—this is God's gift to man.
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 3:18 - 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 3:22 - 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 4:5 - The fool folds his hands and eats his own flesh.
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 4:11 - Again, if two lie together, they keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 4:12 - And though a man might prevail against one who is alone, two will withstand him—a threefold cord is not quickly broken.
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 5:6 - 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?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:14 - and those riches were lost in a bad venture. And he is father of a son, but he has nothing in his hand.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:18 - 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 5:19 - Everyone also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and power to enjoy them, and to accept his lot and rejoice in his toil—this is the gift of God.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 5:20 - For he will not much remember the days of his life because God keeps him occupied with joy in his heart.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 6:2 - a man to whom God gives wealth, possessions, and honor, so that he lacks nothing of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to enjoy them, but a stranger enjoys them. This is vanity;[fn] it is a grievous evil.
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 7:2 - It is better to go to the house of mourning
than to go to the house of feasting,
for this is the end of all mankind,
and the living will lay it to heart.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:13 - Consider the work of God:
who can make straight what he has made crooked?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:14 - In the day of prosperity be joyful, and in the day of adversity consider: God has made the one as well as the other, so that man may not find out anything that will be after him.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 7:27 - Behold, this is what I found, says the Preacher, while adding one thing to another to find the scheme of things—
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 8:5 - Whoever keeps a command will know no evil thing, and the wise heart will know the proper time and the just way.[fn]
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 8:15 - 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 8:17 - 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 9:2 - 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 9:4 - But he who is joined with all the living has hope, for a living dog is better than a dead lion.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 9:7 - Go, eat your bread with joy, and drink your wine with a merry heart, for God has already approved what you do.
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 10:6 - folly is set in many high places, and the rich sit in a low place.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:8 - He who digs a pit will fall into it,
and a serpent will bite him who breaks through a wall.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:11 - If the serpent bites before it is charmed,
there is no advantage to the charmer.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:14 - A fool multiplies words,
though no man knows what is to be,
and who can tell him what will be after him?
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:16 - Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child,
and your princes feast in the morning!
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:17 - Happy are you, O land, when your king is the son of the nobility,
and your princes feast at the proper time,
for strength, and not for drunkenness!
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 10:20 - Even in your thoughts, do not curse the king,
nor in your bedroom curse the rich,
for a bird of the air will carry your voice,
or some winged creature tell the matter.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:8 - So if a person lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember that the days of darkness will be many. All that comes is vanity.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 11:9 - Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth. Walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:2 - before the sun and the light and the moon and the stars are darkened and the clouds return after the rain,
Unchecked Copy BoxEcc 12:5 - they are afraid also of what is high, and terrors are in the way; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along,[fn] and desire fails, because man is going to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets—
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 12:8 - Vanity[fn] of vanities, says the Preacher; all is vanity.
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 BoxEcc 12:14 - For God will bring every deed into judgment, with[fn] every secret thing, whether good or evil.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:4 - Draw me after you; let us run.
The king has brought me into his chambers.

Others
We will exult and rejoice in you;
we will extol your love more than wine;
rightly do they love you.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:6 - Do not gaze at me because I am dark,
because the sun has looked upon me.
My mother's sons were angry with me;
they made me keeper of the vineyards,
but my own vineyard I have not kept!
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:12 - She
While the king was on his couch,
my nard gave forth its fragrance.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 1:16 - She
Behold, you are beautiful, my beloved, truly delightful.
Our couch is green;
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 2:11 - for behold, the winter is past;
the rain is over and gone.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 2:16 - My beloved is mine, and I am his;
he grazes[fn] among the lilies.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 3:9 - King Solomon made himself a carriage[fn]
from the wood of Lebanon.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 4:4 - Your neck is like the tower of David,
built in rows of stone;[fn]
on it hang a thousand shields,
all of them shields of warriors.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:1 - Others
Where has your beloved gone,
O most beautiful among women?
Where has your beloved turned,
that we may seek him with you?
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:3 - I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine;
he grazes among the lilies.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 6:10 - “Who is this who looks down like the dawn,
beautiful as the moon, bright as the sun,
awesome as an army with banners?”
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:9 - and your mouth[fn] like the best wine.

She
It goes down smoothly for my beloved,
gliding over lips and teeth.[fn]
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 7:12 - let us go out early to the vineyards
and see whether the vines have budded,
whether the grape blossoms have opened
and the pomegranates are in bloom.
There I will give you my love.
Unchecked Copy BoxSng 8:13 - He
O you who dwell in the gardens,
with companions listening for your voice;
let me hear it.

is taking away from Jerusalem and from Judah
support and supply,[fn]

the heads of the daughters of Zion,

but behold, an outcry![fn]

for great in your[fn] midst is the Holy One of Israel.”

who did not let his prisoners go home?'
Unchecked Copy BoxIsa 14:25 - that I will break the Assyrian in my land,
