kjv@1Esdras:1:3 @ And he spake unto the Levites, the holy ministers of Israel, that they should hallow themselves unto the Lord, to set the holy ark of the Lord in the house that king Solomon the son of David had built:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:7 @ And unto the people that was found there Josias gave thirty thousand lambs and kids, and three thousand calves: these things were given of the king's allowance, according as he promised, to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:31 @ Then gat he up upon his second chariot; and being brought back to Jerusalem died, and was buried in his father's sepulchre.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:33 @ These things are written in the book of the stories of the kings of Judah, and every one of the acts that Josias did, and his glory, and his understanding in the law of the Lord, and the things that he had done before, and the things now recited, are reported in the book of the kings of Israel and Judea.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:34 @ And the people took Joachaz the son of Josias, and made him king instead of Josias his father, when he was twenty and three years old.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:35 @ And he reigned in Judea and in Jerusalem three months: and then the king of Egypt deposed him from reigning in Jerusalem.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:36 @ And he set a tax upon the land of an hundred talents of silver and one talent of gold.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:38 @ And he bound Joacim and the nobles: but Zaraces his brother he apprehended, and brought him out of Egypt.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:39 @ Five and twenty years old was Joacim when he was made king in the land of Judea and Jerusalem; and he did evil before the Lord.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:43 @ And Joacim his son reigned in his stead: he was made king being eighteen years old;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:46 @ And made Zedechias king of Judea and Jerusalem, when he was one and twenty years old; and he reigned eleven years:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:47 @ And he did evil also in the sight of the Lord, and cared not for the words that were spoken unto him by the prophet Jeremy from the mouth of the Lord.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:48 @ And after that king Nabuchodonosor had made him to swear by the name of the Lord, he forswore himself, and rebelled; and hardening his neck, his heart, he transgressed the laws of the Lord God of Israel.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:50 @ Nevertheless the God of their fathers sent by his messenger to call them back, because he spared them and his tabernacle also.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:53 @ Who slew their young men with the sword, yea, even within the compass of their holy temple, and spared neither young man nor maid, old man nor child, among them; for he delivered all into their hands.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:1:56 @ And as for her glorious things, they never ceased till they had consumed and brought them all to nought: and the people that were not slain with the sword he carried unto Babylon:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:2:1 @ In the first year of Cyrus king of the Persians, that the word of the Lord might be accomplished, that he had promised by the mouth of Jeremy;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:2:2 @ The Lord raised up the spirit of Cyrus the king of the Persians, and he made proclamation through all his kingdom, and also by writing,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:2:5 @ If therefore there be any of you that are of his people, let the Lord, even his Lord, be with him, and let him go up to Jerusalem that is in Judea, and build the house of the Lord of Israel: for he is the Lord that dwelleth in Jerusalem.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:2:11 @ Now when Cyrus king of the Persians had brought them forth, he delivered them to Mithridates his treasurer:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:1 @ Now when Darius reigned, he made a great feast unto all his subjects, and unto all his household, and unto all the princes of Media and Persia,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:5 @ Let every one of us speak a sentence: he that shall overcome, and whose sentence shall seem wiser than the others, unto him shall the king Darius give great gifts, and great things in token of victory:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:7 @ And he shall sit next to Darius because of his wisdom, and shall be called Darius his cousin.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:13 @ Now when the king was risen up, they took their writings, and delivered them unto him, and so he read them:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:14 @ And sending forth he called all the princes of Persia and Media, and the governors, and the captains, and the lieutenants, and the chief officers;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:16 @ And he said, Call the young men, and they shall declare their own sentences. So they were called, and came in.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:17 @ And he said unto them, Declare unto us your mind concerning the writings. Then began the first, who had spoken of the strength of wine;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:18 @ And he said thus, O ye men, how exceeding strong is wine! it causeth all men to err that drink it:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:3:24 @ O ye men, is not wine the strongest, that enforceth to do thus? And when he had so spoken, he held his peace.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:3 @ But yet the king is more mighty: for he is lord of all these things, and hath dominion over them; and whatsoever he commandeth them they do.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:4 @ If he bid them make war the one against the other, they do it: if he send them out against the enemies, they go, and break down mountains walls and towers.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:7 @ And yet he is but one man: if he command to kill, they kill; if he command to spare, they spare;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:8 @ If he command to smite, they smite; if he command to make desolate, they make desolate; if he command to build, they build;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:9 @ If he command to cut down, they cut down; if he command to plant, they plant.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:10 @ So all his people and his armies obey him: furthermore he lieth down, he eateth and drinketh, and taketh his rest:
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:12 @ O ye men, how should not the king be mightiest, when in such sort he is obeyed? And he held his tongue.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:21 @ He sticketh not to spend his life with his wife. and remembereth neither father, nor mother, nor country.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:24 @ And looketh upon a lion, and goeth in the darkness; and when he hath stolen, spoiled, and robbed, he bringeth it to his love.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:31 @ And yet for all this the king gaped and gazed upon her with open mouth: if she laughed upon him, he laughed also: but if she took any displeasure at him, the king was fain to flatter, that she might be reconciled to him again.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:33 @ Then the king and the princes looked one upon another: so he began to speak of the truth.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:34 @ O ye men, are not women strong? great is the earth, high is the heaven, swift is the sun in his course, for he compasseth the heavens round about, and fetcheth his course again to his own place in one day.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:35 @ Is he not great that maketh these things? therefore great is the truth, and stronger than all things.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:41 @ And with that he held his peace. And all the people then shouted, and said, Great is Truth, and mighty above all things.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:43 @ Then said he unto the king, Remember thy vow, which thou hast vowed to build Jerusalem, in the day when thou camest to thy kingdom,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:44 @ And to send away all the vessels that were taken away out of Jerusalem, which Cyrus set apart, when he vowed to destroy Babylon, and to send them again thither.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:48 @ He wrote letters also unto the lieutenants that were in Celosyria and Phenice, and unto them in Libanus, that they should bring cedar wood from Libanus unto Jerusalem, and that they should build the city with him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:49 @ Moreover he wrote for all the Jews that went out of his realm up into Jewry, concerning their freedom, that no officer, no ruler, no lieutenant, nor treasurer, should forcibly enter into their doors;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:54 @ He wrote also concerning. the charges, and the priests' vestments wherein they minister;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:56 @ And he commanded to give to all that kept the city pensions and wages.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:57 @ He sent away also all the vessels from Babylon, that Cyrus had set apart; and all that Cyrus had given in commandment, the same charged he also to be done, and sent unto Jerusalem.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:58 @ Now when this young man was gone forth, he lifted up his face to heaven toward Jerusalem, and praised the King of heaven,
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:61 @ And so he took the letters, and went out, and came unto Babylon, and told it all his brethren.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:4:62 @ And they praised the God of their fathers, because he had given them freedom and liberty
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:5:3 @ And all their brethren played, and he made them go up together with them.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:6:15 @ But when our fathers provoked God unto wrath, and sinned against the Lord of Israel which is in heaven, he gave them over into the power of Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, of the Chaldees;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:6:19 @ With commandment that he should carry away the same vessels, and put them in the temple at Jerusalem; and that the temple of the Lord should be built in his place.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:6:27 @ And also he commanded that Sisinnes the governor of Syria and Phenice, and Sathrabuzanes, and their companions, and those which were appointed rulers in Syria and Phenice, should be careful not to meddle with the place, but suffer Zorobabel, the servant of the Lord, and governor of Judea, and the elders of the Jews, to build the house of the Lord in that place.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:6:32 @ And he commanded that whosoever should transgress, yea, or make light of any thing afore spoken or written, out of his own house should a tree be taken, and he thereon be hanged, and all his goods seized for the king.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:7:15 @ For that he had turned the counsel of the king of Assyria toward them, to strengthen their hands in the works of the Lord God of Israel.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:4 @ And the king did him honour: for he found grace in his sight in all his requests.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:7 @ For Esdras had very great skill, so that he omitted nothing of the law and commandments of the Lord, but taught all Israel the ordinances and judgments.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:8:80 @ Yea, when we were in bondage, we were not forsaken of our Lord; but he made us gracious before the kings of Persia, so that they gave us food;
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:39 @ And they spake unto Esdras the priest and reader, that he would bring the law of Moses, that was given of the Lord God of Israel.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:41 @ And he read in the broad court before the holy porch from morning unto midday, before both men and women; and the multitude gave heed unto the law.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:45 @ Then took Esdras the book of the law before the multitude: for he sat honourably in the first place in the sight of them all.
apocrypha_kjv@1Esdras:9:46 @ And when he opened the law, they stood all straight up. So Esdras blessed the Lord God most High, the God of hosts, Almighty.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:1 @ And it happened, after that Alexander son of Philip, the Macedonian, who came out of the land of Chettiim, had smitten Darius king of the Persians and Medes, that he reigned in his stead, the first over Greece,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:3 @ And went through to the ends of the earth, and took spoils of many nations, insomuch that the earth was quiet before him; whereupon he was exalted and his heart was lifted up.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:4 @ And he gathered a mighty strong host and ruled over countries, and nations, and kings, who became tributaries unto him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:5 @ And after these things he fell sick, and perceived that he should die.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:6 @ Wherefore he called his servants, such as were honourable, and had been brought up with him from his youth, and parted his kingdom among them, while he was yet alive.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:10 @ And there came out of them a wicked root Antiochus surnamed Epiphanes, son of Antiochus the king, who had been an hostage at Rome, and he reigned in the hundred and thirty and seventh year of the kingdom of the Greeks.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:16 @ Now when the kingdom was established before Antiochus, he thought to reign over Egypt that he might have the dominion of two realms.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:17 @ Wherefore he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots, and elephants, and horsemen, and a great navy,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:19 @ Thus they got the strong cities in the land of Egypt and he took the spoils thereof.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:20 @ And after that Antiochus had smitten Egypt, he returned again in the hundred forty and third year, and went up against Israel and Jerusalem with a great multitude,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:22 @ And the table of the shewbread, and the pouring vessels, and the vials. and the censers of gold, and the veil, and the crown, and the golden ornaments that were before the temple, all which he pulled off.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:23 @ He took also the silver and the gold, and the precious vessels: also he took the hidden treasures which he found.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:24 @ And when he had taken all away, he went into his own land, having made a great massacre, and spoken very proudly.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:30 @ And spake peaceable words unto them, but all was deceit: for when they had given him credence, he fell suddenly upon the city, and smote it very sore, and destroyed much people of Israel.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:31 @ And when he had taken the spoils of the city, he set it on fire, and pulled down the houses and walls thereof on every side.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:50 @ And whosoever would not do according to the commandment of the king, he said, he should die.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:1:51 @ In the selfsame manner wrote he to his whole kingdom, and appointed overseers over all the people, commanding the cities of Juda to sacrifice, city by city.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:2 @ And he had five sons, Joannan, called Caddis:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:6 @ And when he saw the blasphemies that were committed in Juda and Jerusalem,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:7 @ He said, Woe is me! wherefore was I born to see this misery of my people, and of the holy city, and to dwell there, when it was delivered into the hand of the enemy, and the sanctuary into the hand of strangers?
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:23 @ Now when he had left speaking these words, there came one of the Jews in the sight of all to sacrifice on the altar which was at Modin, according to the king's commandment.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:24 @ Which thing when Mattathias saw, he was inflamed with zeal, and his reins trembled, neither could he forbear to shew his anger according to judgment: wherefore he ran, and slew him upon the altar.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:25 @ Also the king's commissioner, who compelled men to sacrifice, he killed at that time, and the altar he pulled down.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:26 @ Thus dealt he zealously for the law of God like as Phinees did unto Zambri the son of Salom.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:28 @ So he and his sons fled into the mountains, and left all that ever they had in the city.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:49 @ Now when the time drew near that Mattathias should die, he said unto his sons, Now hath pride and rebuke gotten strength, and the time of destruction, and the wrath of indignation:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:63 @ To day he shall be lifted up and to morrow he shall not be found, because he is returned into his dust, and his thought is come to nothing.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:65 @ And behold, I know that your brother Simon is a man of counsel, give ear unto him alway: he shall be a father unto you.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:66 @ As for Judas Maccabeus, he hath been mighty and strong, even from his youth up: let him be your captain, and fight the battle of the people.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:69 @ So he blessed them, and was gathered to his fathers.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:2:70 @ And he died in the hundred forty and sixth year, and his sons buried him in the sepulchres of his fathers at Modin, and all Israel made great lamentation for him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:3 @ So he gat his people great honour, and put on a breastplate as a giant, and girt his warlike harness about him, and he made battles, protecting the host with his sword.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:4 @ In his acts he was like a lion, and like a lion's whelp roaring for his prey.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:5 ...For He pursued...
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:7 @ He grieved also many kings, and made Jacob glad with his acts, and his memorial is blessed for ever.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:8 @ Moreover he went through the cities of Juda, destroying the ungodly out of them, and turning away wrath from Israel:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:9 @ So that he was renowned unto the utmost part of the earth, and he received unto him such as were ready to perish.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:11 @ Which thing when Judas perceived, he went forth to meet him, and so he smote him, and slew him: many also fell down slain, but the rest fled.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:12 @ Wherefore Judas took their spoils, and Apollonius' sword also, and therewith he fought all his life long.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:14 @ He said, I will get me a name and honour in the kingdom; for I will go fight with Judas and them that are with him, who despise the king's commandment.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:15 @ So he made him ready to go up, and there went with him a mighty host of the ungodly to help him, and to be avenged of the children of Israel.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:16 @ And when he came near to the going up of Bethhoron, Judas went forth to meet him with a small company:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:23 @ Now as soon as he had left off speaking, he leapt suddenly upon them, and so Seron and his host was overthrown before him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:27 @ Now when king Antiochus heard these things, he was full of indignation: wherefore he sent and gathered together all the forces of his realm, even a very strong army.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:28 @ He opened also his treasure, and gave his soldiers pay for a year, commanding them to be ready whensoever he should need them.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:29 @ Nevertheless, when he saw that the money of his treasures failed and that the tributes in the country were small, because of the dissension and plague, which he had brought upon the land in taking away the laws which had been of old time;
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:30 @ He feared that he should not be able to bear the charges any longer, nor to have such gifts to give so liberally as he did before: for he had abounded above the kings that were before him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:31 @ Wherefore, being greatly perplexed in his mind, he determined to go into Persia, there to take the tributes of the countries, and to gather much money.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:32 @ So he left Lysias, a nobleman, and one of the blood royal, to oversee the affairs of the king from the river Euphrates unto the borders of Egypt:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:33 @ And to bring up his son Antiochus, until he came again.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:34 @ Moreover he delivered unto him the half of his forces, and the elephants, and gave him charge of all things that he would have done, as also concerning them that dwelt in Juda and Jerusalem:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:35 @ To wit, that he should send an army against them, to destroy and root out the strength of Israel, and the remnant of Jerusalem, and to take away their memorial from that place;
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:36 @ And that he should place strangers in all their quarters, and divide their land by lot.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:37 @ So the king took the half of the forces that remained, and departed from Antioch, his royal city, the hundred forty and seventh year; and having passed the river Euphrates, he went through the high countries.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:39 @ And with them he sent forty thousand footmen, and seven thousand horsemen, to go into the land of Juda, and to destroy it, as the king commanded.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:3:56 @ But as for such as were building houses, or had betrothed wives, or were planting vineyards, or were fearful, those he commanded that they should return, every man to his own house, according to the law.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:2 @ To the end he might rush in upon the camp of the Jews, and smite them suddenly. And the men of the fortress were his guides.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:3 @ Now when Judas heard thereof he himself removed, and the valiant men with him, that he might smite the king's army which was at Emmaus,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:5 @ In the mean season came Gorgias by night into the camp of Judas: and when he found no man there, he sought them in the mountains: for said he, These fellows flee from us
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:27 @ Who, when he heard thereof, was confounded and discouraged, because neither such things as he would were done unto Israel, nor such things as the king commanded him were come to pass.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:28 @ The next year therefore following Lysias gathered together threescore thousand choice men of foot, and five thousand horsemen, that he might subdue them.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:30 @ And when he saw that mighty army, he prayed and said, Blessed art thou, O Saviour of Israel, who didst quell the violence of the mighty man by the hand of thy servant David, and gavest the host of strangers into the hands of Jonathan the son of Saul, and his armourbearer;
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:35 @ Now when Lysias saw his army put to flight, and the manliness of Judas' soldiers, and how they were ready either to live or die valiantly, he went into Antiochia, and gathered together a company of strangers, and having made his army greater than it was, he purposed to come again into Judea.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:41 @ Then Judas appointed certain men to fight against those that were in the fortress, until he had cleansed the sanctuary.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:4:42 @ So he chose priests of blameless conversation, such as had pleasure in the law:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:3 @ Then Judas fought against the children of Esau in Idumea at Arabattine, because they besieged Gael: and he gave them a great overthrow, and abated their courage, and took their spoils.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:4 @ Also he remembered the injury of the children of Bean, who had been a snare and an offence unto the people, in that they lay in wait for them in the ways.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:5 @ He shut them up therefore in the towers, and encamped against them, and destroyed them utterly, and burned the towers of that place with fire, and all that were therein.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:6 @ Afterward he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power, and much people, with Timotheus their captain.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:7 @ So he fought many battles with them, till at length they were discomfited before him; and he smote them.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:8 @ And when he had taken Jazar, with the towns belonging thereto, he returned into Judea.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:18 @ So he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias, captains of the people, with the remnant of the host in Judea to keep it.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:19 @ Unto whom he gave commandment, saying, Take ye the charge of this people, and see that ye make not war against the heathen until the time that we come again.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:21 @ Then went Simon into Galilee, where he fought many battles with the heathen, so that the heathen were discomfited by him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:22 @ And he pursued them unto the gate of Ptolemais; and there were slain of the heathen about three thousand men, whose spoils he took.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:23 @ And those that were in Galilee, and in Arbattis, with their wives and their children, and all that they had, took he away with him, and brought them into Judea with great joy.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:28 @ Hereupon Judas and his host turned suddenly by the way of the wilderness unto Bosora; and when he had won the city, he slew all the males with the edge of the sword, and took all their spoils, and burned the city with fire,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:29 @ From whence he removed by night, and went till he came to the fortress.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:32 @ He said unto his host, Fight this day for your brethren.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:33 @ So he went forth behind them in three companies, who sounded their trumpets, and cried with prayer.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:34 @ Then the host of Timotheus, knowing that it was Maccabeus, fled from him: wherefore he smote them with a great slaughter; so that there were killed of them that day about eight thousand men.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:35 @ This done, Judas turned aside to Maspha; and after he had assaulted it he took and slew all the males therein, and received the spoils thereof and and burnt it with fire.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:39 @ He hath also hired the Arabians to help them and they have pitched their tents beyond the brook, ready to come and fight against thee. Upon this Judas went to meet them.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:40 @ Then Timotheus said unto the captains of his host, When Judas and his host come near the brook, if he pass over first unto us, we shall not be able to withstand him; for he will mightily prevail against us:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:41 @ But if he be afraid, and camp beyond the river, we shall go over unto him, and prevail against him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:42 @ Now when Judas came near the brook, he caused the scribes of the people to remain by the brook: unto whom he gave commandment, saying, Suffer no man to remain in the camp, but let all come to the battle.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:43 @ So he went first over unto them, and all the people after him: then all the heathen, being discomfited before him, cast away their weapons, and fled unto the temple that was at Carnaim.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:49 @ Wherefore Judas commanded a proclamation to be made throughout the host, that every man should pitch his tent in the place where he was.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:65 @...south, where he smote Hebron, and...
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:66 @ From thence he removed to go into the land of the Philistines, and passed through Samaria.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:5:68 @ So Judas turned to Azotus in the land of the Philistines, and when he had pulled down their altars, and burned their carved images with fire, and spoiled their cities, he returned into the land of Judea.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:3 @ Wherefore he came and sought to take the city, and to spoil it; but he was not able, because they of the city, having had warning thereof,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:4 @ Rose up against him in battle: so he fled, and departed thence with great heaviness, and returned to Babylon.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:7 @ Also that they had pulled down the abomination, which he had set up upon the altar in Jerusalem, and that they had compassed about the sanctuary with high walls, as before, and his city Bethsura.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:8 @ Now when the king heard these words, he was astonished and sore moved: whereupon he laid him down upon his bed, and fell sick for grief, because it had not befallen him as he looked for.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:9 @ And there he continued many days: for his grief was ever more and more, and he made account that he should die.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:10 @ Wherefore he called for all his friends, and said unto them, The sleep is gone from mine eyes, and my heart faileth for very care.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:14 @ Then called he for Philip, one of his friends, who he made ruler over all his realm,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:15 @ And gave him the crown, and his robe, and his signet, to the end he should bring up his son Antiochus, and nourish him up for the kingdom.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:17 @ Now when Lysias knew that the king was dead, he set up Antiochus his son, whom he had brought up being young, to reign in his stead, and his name he called Eupator.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:20 @ So they came together, and besieged them in the hundred and fiftieth year, and he made mounts for shot against them, and other engines.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:23 @ We have been willing to serve thy father, and to do as he would have us, and to obey his commandments;
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:28 @ Now when the king heard this, he was angry, and gathered together all his friends, and the captains of his army, and those that had charge of the horse.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:44 @ Put himself in jeopardy, to the end he might deliver his people, and get him a perpetual name:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:45 @ Wherefore he ran upon him courageously through the midst of the battle, slaying on the right hand and on the left, so that they were divided from him on both sides.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:46 @ Which done, he crept under the elephant, and thrust him under, and slew him: whereupon the elephant fell down upon him, and there he died.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:49 @ But with them that were in Bethsura he made peace: for they came out of the city, because they had no victuals there to endure the siege, it being a year of rest to the land.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:51 @ As for the sanctuary, he besieged it many days: and set there artillery with engines and instruments to cast fire and stones, and pieces to cast darts and slings.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:55 @ At that time Lysias heard say, that Philip, whom Antiochus the king, whiles he lived, had appointed to bring up his son Antiochus, that he might be king,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:56 @ Was returned out of Persia and Media, and the king's host also that went with him, and that he sought to take unto him the ruling of the affairs.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:57 @ Wherefore he went in all haste, and said to the king and the captains of the host and the company, We decay daily, and our victuals are but small, and the place we lay siege unto is strong, and the affairs of the kingdom lie upon us:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:60 @ So the king and the princes were content: wherefore he sent unto them to make peace; and they accepted thereof.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:62 @ Then the king entered into mount Sion; but when he saw the strength of the place, he broke his oath that he had made, and gave commandment to pull down the wall round about.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:6:63 @ Afterward departed he in all haste, and returned unto Antiochia, where he found Philip to be master of the city: so he fought against him, and took the city by force.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:2 @ And as he entered into the palace of his ancestors, so it was, that his forces had taken Antiochus and Lysias, to bring them unto him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:3 @ Wherefore, when he knew it, he said, Let me not see their faces.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:7 @ Now therefore send some man whom thou trustest, and let him go and see what havock he hath made among us, and in the king's land, and let him punish them with all them that aid them.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:9 @ And him he sent with that wicked Alcimus, whom he made high priest, and commanded that he should take vengeance of the children of Israel.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:14 @ For said they, One that is a priest of the seed of Aaron is come with this army, and he will do us no wrong.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:15 @ So he spake unto them, peaceably, and sware unto them, saying, we will procure the harm neither of you nor your friends.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:16 @ Whereupon they believed him: howbeit he took of them threescore men, and slew them in one day, according to the words which he wrote,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:19 @ After this, removed Bacchides from Jerusalem, and pitched his tents in Bezeth, where he sent and took many of the men that had forsaken him, and certain of the people also, and when he had slain them, he cast them into the great pit.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:20 @ Then committed he the country to Alcimus, and left with him a power to aid him: so Bacchides went to the king.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:24 @ He went out into all the coasts of Judea round about, and took vengeance of them that had revolted from him, so that they durst no more go forth into the country.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:25 @ On the other side, when Alcimus saw that Judas and his company had gotten the upper hand, and knew that he was not able to abide their force, he went again to the king, and said all the worst of them that he could.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:29 @ He came therefore to Judas, and they saluted one another peaceably. Howbeit the enemies were prepared to take away Judas by violence.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:30 @ Which thing after it was known to Judas, to wit, that he came unto him with deceit, he was sore afraid of him, and would see his face no more.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:31 @ Nicanor also, when he saw that his counsel was discovered, went out to fight against Judas beside Capharsalama:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:34 @ But he mocked them, and laughed at them, and abused them shamefully, and spake proudly,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:35 @ And sware in his wrath, saying, Unless Judas and his host be now delivered into my hands, if ever I come again in safety, I will burn up this house: and with that he went out in a great rage.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:40 @ But Judas pitched in Adasa with three thousand men, and there he prayed, saying,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:42 @ Even so destroy thou this host before us this day, that the rest may know that he hath spoken blasphemously against thy sanctuary, and judge thou him according to his wickedness.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:43 @ So the thirteenth day of the month Adar the hosts joined battle: but Nicanor's host was discomfited, and he himself was first slain in the battle.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:44 @ Now when Nicanor's host saw that he was slain, they cast away their weapons, and fled.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:7:47 @ Afterwards they took the spoils, and the prey, and smote off Nicanors head, and his right hand, which he stretched out so proudly, and brought them away, and hanged them up toward Jerusalem.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:8:7 @ And how they took him alive, and covenanted that he and such as reigned after him should pay a great tribute, and give hostages, and that which was agreed upon,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:1 @ Furthermore, when Demetrius heard the Nicanor and his host were slain in battle, he sent Bacchides and Alcimus into the land of Judea the second time, and with them the chief strength of his host:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:6 @ Who seeing the multitude of the other army to he so great were sore afraid; whereupon many conveyed themselves out of the host, insomuch as abode of them no more but eight hundred men.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:7 @ When Judas therefore saw that his host slipt away, and that the battle pressed upon him, he was sore troubled in mind, and much distressed, for that he had no time to gather them together.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:8 @ Nevertheless unto them that remained he said, Let us arise and go up against our enemies, if peradventure we may be able to fight with them.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:12 @ As for Bacchides, he was in the right wing: so the host drew near on the two parts, and sounded their trumpets.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:14 @ Now when Judas perceived that Bacchides and the strength of his army were on the right side, he took with him all the hardy men,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:22 @ As for the other things concerning Judas and his wars, and the noble acts which he did, and his greatness, they are not written: for they were very many.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:32 @ But when Bacchides gat knowledge thereof, he sought for to slay him
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:34 @ Which when Bacchides understood, he came near to Jordan with all his host upon the sabbath day.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:36 @ But the children of Jambri came out of Medaba, and took John, and all that he had, and went their way with it.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:43 @ Now when Bacchides heard hereof, he came on the sabbath day unto the banks of Jordan with a great power.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:47 @ With that they joined battle, and Jonathan stretched forth his hand to smite Bacchides, but he turned back from him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:50 @ Afterward returned Bacchides to Jerusalem and repaired the strong cites in Judea; the fort in Jericho, and Emmaus, and Bethhoron, and Bethel, and Thamnatha, Pharathoni, and Taphon, these did he strengthen with high walls, with gates and with bars.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:51 @ And in them he set a garrison, that they might work malice upon Israel.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:52 @ He fortified also the city Bethsura, and Gazera, and the tower, and put forces in them, and provision of victuals.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:53 @ Besides, he took the chief men's sons in the country for hostages, and put them into the tower at Jerusalem to be kept.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:54 @ Moreover in the hundred fifty and third year, in the second month, Alcimus commanded that the wall of the inner court of the sanctuary should be pulled down; he pulled down also the works of the prophets
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:55 @ And as he began to pull down, even at that time was Alcimus plagued, and his enterprizes hindered: for his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak any thing, nor give order concerning his house.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:57 @ Now when Bacchides saw that Alcimus was dead, he returned to the king: whereupon the land of Judea was in rest two years.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:63 @ Which thing when Bacchides knew, he gathered together all his host, and sent word to them that were of Judea.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:64 @ Then went he and laid siege against Bethbasi; and they fought against it a long season and made engines of war.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:65 @ But Jonathan left his brother Simon in the city, and went forth himself into the country, and with a certain number went he forth.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:66 @ And he smote Odonarkes and his brethren, and the children of Phasiron in their tent.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:67 @ And when he began to smite them, and came up with his forces, Simon and his company went out of the city, and burned up the engines of war,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:69 @ Wherefore he was very wroth at the wicked men that gave him counsel to come into the country, inasmuch as he slew many of them, and purposed to return into his own country.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:70 @ Whereof when Jonathan had knowledge, he sent ambassadors unto him, to the end he should make peace with him, and deliver them the prisoners.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:71 @ Which thing he accepted, and did according to his demands, and sware unto him that he would never do him harm all the days of his life.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:72 @ When therefore he had restored unto him the prisoners that he had taken aforetime out of the land of Judea, he returned and went his way into his own land, neither came he any more into their borders.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:9:73 @ Thus the sword ceased from Israel: but Jonathan dwelt at Machmas, and began to govern the people; and he destroyed the ungodly men out of Israel.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:1 @ In the hundred and sixtieth year Alexander, the son of Antiochus surnamed Epiphanes, went up and took Ptolemais: for the people had received him, by means whereof he reigned there,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:2 @ Now when king Demetrius heard thereof, he gathered together an exceeding great host, and went forth against him to fight.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:3 @ Moreover Demetrius sent letters unto Jonathan with loving words, so as he magnified him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:4 @ For said he, Let us first make peace with him, before he join with Alexander against us:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:5 @ Else he will remember all the evils that we have done against him, and against his brethren and his people.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:6 @ Wherefore he gave him authority to gather together an host, and to provide weapons, that he might aid him in battle: he commanded also that the hostages that were in the tower should be delivered him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:9 @ Whereupon they of the tower delivered their hostages unto Jonathan, and he delivered them unto their parents.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:11 @ And he commanded the workmen to build the walls and the mount Sion and about with square stones for fortification; and they did so.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:15 @ Now when king Alexander had heard what promises Demetrius had sent unto Jonathan: when also it was told him of the battles and noble acts which he and his brethren had done, and of the pains that they had endured,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:16 @ He said, Shall we find such another man? now therefore we will make him our friend and confederate.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:17 @ Upon this he wrote a letter, and sent it unto him, according to these words, saying,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:20 @ Wherefore now this day we ordain thee to be the high priest of thy nation, and to be called the king's friend; (and therewithal he sent him a purple robe and a crown of gold:) and require thee to take our part, and keep friendship with us.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:22 @ Whereof when Demetrius heard, he was very sorry, and said,
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:25 @ He sent unto them therefore to this effect: King Demetrius unto the people of the Jews sendeth greeting:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:32 @ And as for the tower which is at Jerusalem, I yield up authority over it, and give the high priest, that he may set in it such men as he shall choose to keep it.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:46 @ Now when Jonathan and the people heard these words, they gave no credit unto them, nor received them, because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel; for he had afflicted them very sore.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:47 @ But with Alexander they were well pleased, because he was the first that entreated of true peace with them, and they were confederate with him always.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:50 @ And he continued the battle very sore until the sun went down: and that day was Demetrius slain.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:53 @ For after I had joined battle with him, both he and his host was discomfited by us, so that we sit in the throne of his kingdom:
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:58 @ Where king Alexander meeting him, he gave unto him his daughter Cleopatra, and celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais with great glory, as the manner of kings is.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:59 @ Now king Alexander had written unto Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:60 @ Who thereupon went honourably to Ptolemais, where he met the two kings, and gave them and their friends silver and gold, and many presents, and found favour in their sight.
apocrypha_kjv@1Maccabees:10:63 @ And he made him sit by himself, and said into his princes, Go with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.
