nkjv@Info @ New King James Version

nkjv@Info @ About the New King James Version –

nkjv@Info @ The New King James Version was conceived by Arthur Farstad in an effort to translate into everyday English the literal context of the scriptures, just as the King James Version did in the 16th century.

nkjv@Genesis:1:6 @ Then God said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."

nkjv@Genesis:1:7 @ Thus God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:8 @ And God called the firmament Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day.

nkjv@Genesis:1:14 @ Then God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years;

nkjv@Genesis:1:15 @ and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth"; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:17 @ God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth,

nkjv@Genesis:1:20 @ Then God said, "Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens."

nkjv@Genesis:2:7 @ And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

nkjv@Genesis:2:10 @ Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four riverheads.

nkjv@Genesis:2:11 @ The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one which skirts the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

nkjv@Genesis:2:13 @ The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one which goes around the whole land of Cush.

nkjv@Genesis:2:14 @ The name of the third river is Hiddekel; it is the one which goes toward the east of Assyria. The fourth river is the Euphrates.

nkjv@Genesis:2:19 @ Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name.

nkjv@Genesis:2:20 @ So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.

nkjv@Genesis:2:21 @ And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.

nkjv@Genesis:2:23 @ And Adam said: "This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man."

nkjv@Genesis:2:25 @ And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

nkjv@Genesis:3:8 @ And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.

nkjv@Genesis:3:9 @ Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, "Where are you?"

nkjv@Genesis:3:17 @ Then to Adam He said, "Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, "You shall not eat of it': "Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it All the days of your life.

nkjv@Genesis:3:20 @ And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.

nkjv@Genesis:3:21 @ Also for Adam and his wife the LORD God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.

nkjv@Genesis:3:24 @ So He drove out the man; and He placed cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.

nkjv@Genesis:4:1 @ Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, "I have acquired a man from the LORD."

nkjv@Genesis:4:3 @ And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:4:8 @ Now Cain talked with Abel his brother; and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him.

nkjv@Genesis:4:9 @ Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is Abel your brother?" He said, "I do not know. Am I my brother's keeper?"

nkjv@Genesis:4:17 @ And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son--Enoch.

nkjv@Genesis:4:18 @ To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael, and Mehujael begot Methushael, and Methushael begot Lamech.

nkjv@Genesis:4:19 @ Then Lamech took for himself two wives: the name of one was Adah, and the name of the second was Zillah.

nkjv@Genesis:4:21 @ His brother's name was Jubal. He was the father of all those who play the harp and flute.

nkjv@Genesis:4:22 @ And as for Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah.

nkjv@Genesis:4:23 @ Then Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, listen to my speech! For I have killed a man for wounding me, Even a young man for hurting me.

nkjv@Genesis:4:24 @ If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, Then Lamech seventy-sevenfold."

nkjv@Genesis:4:25 @ And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and named him Seth, "For God has appointed another seed for me instead of Abel, whom Cain killed."

nkjv@Genesis:4:26 @ And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:5:1 @ This is the book of the genealogy of Adam. In the day that God created man, He made him in the likeness of God.

nkjv@Genesis:5:3 @ And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth.

nkjv@Genesis:5:4 @ After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were eight hundred years; and he had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:5 @ So all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:25 @ Methuselah lived one hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.

nkjv@Genesis:5:26 @ After he begot Lamech, Methuselah lived seven hundred and eighty-two years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:28 @ Lamech lived one hundred and eighty-two years, and had a son.

nkjv@Genesis:5:29 @ And he called his name Noah, saying, "This one will comfort us concerning our work and the toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD has cursed."

nkjv@Genesis:5:30 @ After he begot Noah, Lamech lived five hundred and ninety-five years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:31 @ So all the days of Lamech were seven hundred and seventy-seven years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:32 @ And Noah was five hundred years old, and Noah begot Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:1 @ Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them,

nkjv@Genesis:6:4 @ There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

nkjv@Genesis:6:7 @ So the LORD said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them."

nkjv@Genesis:6:10 @ And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:17 @ And behold, I Myself am bringing floodwaters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall die.

nkjv@Genesis:7:10 @ And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:7:13 @ On the very same day Noah and Noah's sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered the ark--

nkjv@Genesis:8:6 @ So it came to pass, at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made.

nkjv@Genesis:8:11 @ Then the dove came to him in the evening, and behold, a freshly plucked olive leaf was in her mouth; and Noah knew that the waters had receded from the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:8:13 @ And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and indeed the surface of the ground was dry.

nkjv@Genesis:8:19 @ Every animal, every creeping thing, every bird, and whatever creeps on the earth, according to their families, went out of the ark.

nkjv@Genesis:9:18 @ Now the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:9:21 @ Then he drank of the wine and was drunk, and became uncovered in his tent.

nkjv@Genesis:9:22 @ And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.

nkjv@Genesis:10:1 @ Now this is the genealogy of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And sons were born to them after the flood.

nkjv@Genesis:10:5 @ From these the coastland peoples of the Gentiles were separated into their lands, everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:10:6 @ The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:10:7 @ The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabtechah; and the sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.

nkjv@Genesis:10:13 @ Mizraim begot Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,

nkjv@Genesis:10:14 @ Pathrusim, and Casluhim (from whom came the Philistines and Caphtorim).

nkjv@Genesis:10:16 @ the Jebusite, the Amorite, and the Girgashite;

nkjv@Genesis:10:18 @ the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were dispersed.

nkjv@Genesis:10:20 @ These were the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands and in their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:10:22 @ The sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.

nkjv@Genesis:10:23 @ The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

nkjv@Genesis:10:25 @ To Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.

nkjv@Genesis:10:27 @ Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

nkjv@Genesis:10:31 @ These were the sons of Shem, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands, according to their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:10:32 @ These were the families of the sons of Noah, according to their generations, in their nations; and from these the nations were divided on the earth after the flood.

nkjv@Genesis:11:2 @ And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.

nkjv@Genesis:11:4 @ And they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth."

nkjv@Genesis:11:5 @ But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built.

nkjv@Genesis:11:9 @ Therefore its name is called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of all the earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:11:26 @ Now Terah lived seventy years, and begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

nkjv@Genesis:11:27 @ This is the genealogy of Terah: Terah begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran. Haran begot Lot.

nkjv@Genesis:11:29 @ Then Abram and Nahor took wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and the father of Iscah.

nkjv@Genesis:11:31 @ And Terah took his son Abram and his grandson Lot, the son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Abram's wife, and they went out with them from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran and dwelt there.

nkjv@Genesis:12:1 @ Now the LORD had said to Abram: "Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land that I will show you.

nkjv@Genesis:12:2 @ I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing.

nkjv@Genesis:12:3 @ I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed."

nkjv@Genesis:12:4 @ So Abram departed as the LORD had spoken to him, and Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran.

nkjv@Genesis:12:5 @ Then Abram took Sarai his wife and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had gathered, and the people whom they had acquired in Haran, and they departed to go to the land of Canaan. So they came to the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:12:6 @ Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, as far as the terebinth tree of Moreh. And the Canaanites were then in the land.

nkjv@Genesis:12:7 @ Then the LORD appeared to Abram and said, "To your descendants I will give this land." And there he built an altar to the LORD, who had appeared to him.

nkjv@Genesis:12:8 @ And he moved from there to the mountain east of Bethel, and he pitched his tent with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east; there he built an altar to the LORD and called on the name of the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:12:9 @ So Abram journeyed, going on still toward the South.

nkjv@Genesis:12:10 @ Now there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down to Egypt to dwell there, for the famine was severe in the land.

nkjv@Genesis:12:11 @ And it came to pass, when he was close to entering Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, "Indeed I know that you are a woman of beautiful countenance.

nkjv@Genesis:12:14 @ So it was, when Abram came into Egypt, that the Egyptians saw the woman, that she was very beautiful.

nkjv@Genesis:12:16 @ He treated Abram well for her sake. He had sheep, oxen, male donkeys, male and female servants, female donkeys, and camels.

nkjv@Genesis:12:17 @ But the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.

nkjv@Genesis:12:18 @ And Pharaoh called Abram and said, "What is this you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?

nkjv@Genesis:13:1 @ Then Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and Lot with him, to the South.

nkjv@Genesis:13:2 @ Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.

nkjv@Genesis:13:4 @ to the place of the altar which he had made there at first. And there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:13:5 @ Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks and herds and tents.

nkjv@Genesis:13:7 @ And there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram's livestock and the herdsmen of Lot's livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites then dwelt in the land.

nkjv@Genesis:13:8 @ So Abram said to Lot, "Please let there be no strife between you and me, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen; for we are brethren.

nkjv@Genesis:13:12 @ Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain and pitched his tent even as far as Sodom.

nkjv@Genesis:13:14 @ And the LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: "Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are--northward, southward, eastward, and westward;

nkjv@Genesis:13:18 @ Then Abram moved his tent, and went and dwelt by the terebinth trees of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:14:1 @ And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations,

nkjv@Genesis:14:5 @ In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him came and attacked the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, the Zuzim in Ham, the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,

nkjv@Genesis:14:7 @ Then they turned back and came to En Mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and attacked all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt in Hazezon Tamar.

nkjv@Genesis:14:9 @ against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of nations, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar--four kings against five.

nkjv@Genesis:14:12 @ They also took Lot, Abram's brother's son who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

nkjv@Genesis:14:13 @ Then one who had escaped came and told Abram the Hebrew, for he dwelt by the terebinth trees of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner; and they were allies with Abram.

nkjv@Genesis:14:14 @ Now when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his three hundred and eighteen trained servants who were born in his own house, and went in pursuit as far as Dan.

nkjv@Genesis:14:15 @ He divided his forces against them by night, and he and his servants attacked them and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is north of Damascus.

nkjv@Genesis:14:19 @ And he blessed him and said: "Blessed be Abram of God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth;

nkjv@Genesis:14:21 @ Now the king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the persons, and take the goods for yourself."

nkjv@Genesis:14:22 @ But Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have raised my hand to the LORD, God Most High, the Possessor of heaven and earth,

nkjv@Genesis:14:23 @ that I will take nothing, from a thread to a sandal strap, and that I will not take anything that is yours, lest you should say, "I have made Abram rich'--

nkjv@Genesis:14:24 @ except only what the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me: Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion."

nkjv@Genesis:15:1 @ After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, "Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward."

nkjv@Genesis:15:2 @ But Abram said, "Lord GOD, what will You give me, seeing I go childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?"

nkjv@Genesis:15:3 @ Then Abram said, "Look, You have given me no offspring; indeed one born in my house is my heir!"

nkjv@Genesis:15:4 @ And behold, the word of the LORD came to him, saying, "This one shall not be your heir, but one who will come from your own body shall be your heir."

nkjv@Genesis:15:7 @ Then He said to him, "I am the LORD, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give you this land to inherit it."

nkjv@Genesis:15:9 @ So He said to him, "Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon."

nkjv@Genesis:15:11 @ And when the vultures came down on the carcasses, Abram drove them away.

nkjv@Genesis:15:12 @ Now when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and behold, horror and great darkness fell upon him.

nkjv@Genesis:15:13 @ Then He said to Abram: "Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not theirs, and will serve them, and they will afflict them four hundred years.

nkjv@Genesis:15:16 @ But in the fourth generation they shall return here, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete."

nkjv@Genesis:15:17 @ And it came to pass, when the sun went down and it was dark, that behold, there appeared a smoking oven and a burning torch that passed between those pieces.

nkjv@Genesis:15:18 @ On the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying: "To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates--

nkjv@Genesis:15:21 @ the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites."

nkjv@Genesis:16:1 @ Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had borne him no children. And she had an Egyptian maidservant whose name was Hagar.

nkjv@Genesis:16:2 @ So Sarai said to Abram, "See now, the LORD has restrained me from bearing children. Please, go in to my maid; perhaps I shall obtain children by her." And Abram heeded the voice of Sarai.

nkjv@Genesis:16:3 @ Then Sarai, Abram's wife, took Hagar her maid, the Egyptian, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:16:4 @ So he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress became despised in her eyes.

nkjv@Genesis:16:5 @ Then Sarai said to Abram, "My wrong be upon you! I gave my maid into your embrace; and when she saw that she had conceived, I became despised in her eyes. The LORD judge between you and me."

nkjv@Genesis:16:6 @ So Abram said to Sarai, "Indeed your maid is in your hand; do to her as you please." And when Sarai dealt harshly with her, she fled from her presence.

nkjv@Genesis:16:8 @ And He said, "Hagar, Sarai's maid, where have you come from, and where are you going?" She said, "I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai."

nkjv@Genesis:16:11 @ And the Angel of the LORD said to her: "Behold, you are with child, And you shall bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, Because the LORD has heard your affliction.

nkjv@Genesis:16:13 @ Then she called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, You-Are-the-God-Who-Sees; for she said, "Have I also here seen Him who sees me?"

nkjv@Genesis:16:15 @ So Hagar bore Abram a son; and Abram named his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.

nkjv@Genesis:16:16 @ Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.

nkjv@Genesis:17:1 @ When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.

nkjv@Genesis:17:3 @ Then Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying:

nkjv@Genesis:17:5 @ No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations.

nkjv@Genesis:17:9 @ And God said to Abraham: "As for you, you shall keep My covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations.

nkjv@Genesis:17:10 @ This is My covenant which you shall keep, between Me and you and your descendants after you: Every male child among you shall be circumcised;

nkjv@Genesis:17:12 @ He who is eight days old among you shall be circumcised, every male child in your generations, he who is born in your house or bought with money from any foreigner who is not your descendant.

nkjv@Genesis:17:15 @ Then God said to Abraham, "As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name.

nkjv@Genesis:17:17 @ Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, "Shall a child be born to a man who is one hundred years old? And shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?"

nkjv@Genesis:17:18 @ And Abraham said to God, "Oh, that Ishmael might live before You!"

nkjv@Genesis:17:19 @ Then God said: "No, Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac; I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his descendants after him.

nkjv@Genesis:17:22 @ Then He finished talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.

nkjv@Genesis:17:23 @ So Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house and all who were bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskins that very same day, as God had said to him.

nkjv@Genesis:17:24 @ Abraham was ninety-nine years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

nkjv@Genesis:17:26 @ That very same day Abraham was circumcised, and his son Ishmael;

nkjv@Genesis:18:1 @ Then the LORD appeared to him by the terebinth trees of Mamre, as he was sitting in the tent door in the heat of the day.

nkjv@Genesis:18:6 @ So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah and said, "Quickly, make ready three measures of fine meal; knead it and make cakes."

nkjv@Genesis:18:7 @ And Abraham ran to the herd, took a tender and good calf, gave it to a young man, and he hastened to prepare it.

nkjv@Genesis:18:11 @ Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age; and Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.

nkjv@Genesis:18:13 @ And the LORD said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, "Shall I surely bear a child, since I am old?'

nkjv@Genesis:18:16 @ Then the men rose from there and looked toward Sodom, and Abraham went with them to send them on the way.

nkjv@Genesis:18:17 @ And the LORD said, "Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing,

nkjv@Genesis:18:18 @ since Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?

nkjv@Genesis:18:19 @ For I have known him, in order that he may command his children and his household after him, that they keep the way of the LORD, to do righteousness and justice, that the LORD may bring to Abraham what He has spoken to him."

nkjv@Genesis:18:22 @ Then the men turned away from there and went toward Sodom, but Abraham still stood before the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:18:23 @ And Abraham came near and said, "Would You also destroy the righteous with the wicked?

nkjv@Genesis:18:27 @ Then Abraham answered and said, "Indeed now, I who am but dust and ashes have taken it upon myself to speak to the Lord:

nkjv@Genesis:18:33 @ So the LORD went His way as soon as He had finished speaking with Abraham; and Abraham returned to his place.

nkjv@Genesis:19:1 @ Now the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:19:5 @ And they called to Lot and said to him, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may know them carnally."

nkjv@Genesis:19:9 @ And they said, "Stand back!" Then they said, "This one came in to stay here, and he keeps acting as a judge; now we will deal worse with you than with them." So they pressed hard against the man Lot, and came near to break down the door.

nkjv@Genesis:19:11 @ And they struck the men who were at the doorway of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they became weary trying to find the door.

nkjv@Genesis:19:17 @ So it came to pass, when they had brought them outside, that he said, "Escape for your life! Do not look behind you nor stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be destroyed."

nkjv@Genesis:19:22 @ Hurry, escape there. For I cannot do anything until you arrive there." Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.

nkjv@Genesis:19:26 @ But his wife looked back behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

nkjv@Genesis:19:27 @ And Abraham went early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:19:29 @ And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when He overthrew the cities in which Lot had dwelt.

nkjv@Genesis:19:37 @ The firstborn bore a son and called his name Moab; he is the father of the Moabites to this day.

nkjv@Genesis:19:38 @ And the younger, she also bore a son and called his name Ben-Ammi; he is the father of the people of Ammon to this day.

nkjv@Genesis:20:1 @ And Abraham journeyed from there to the South, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur, and stayed in Gerar.

nkjv@Genesis:20:2 @ Now Abraham said of Sarah his wife, "She is my sister." And Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.

nkjv@Genesis:20:3 @ But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, "Indeed you are a dead man because of the woman whom you have taken, for she is a man's wife."

nkjv@Genesis:20:6 @ And God said to him in a dream, "Yes, I know that you did this in the integrity of your heart. For I also withheld you from sinning against Me; therefore I did not let you touch her.

nkjv@Genesis:20:9 @ And Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, "What have you done to us? How have I offended you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done deeds to me that ought not to be done."

nkjv@Genesis:20:10 @ Then Abimelech said to Abraham, "What did you have in view, that you have done this thing?"

nkjv@Genesis:20:11 @ And Abraham said, "Because I thought, surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will kill me on account of my wife.

nkjv@Genesis:20:12 @ But indeed she is truly my sister. She is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.

nkjv@Genesis:20:13 @ And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, "This is your kindness that you should do for me: in every place, wherever we go, say of me, "He is my brother.""'

nkjv@Genesis:20:14 @ Then Abimelech took sheep, oxen, and male and female servants, and gave them to Abraham; and he restored Sarah his wife to him.

nkjv@Genesis:20:17 @ So Abraham prayed to God; and God healed Abimelech, his wife, and his female servants. Then they bore children;

nkjv@Genesis:20:18 @ for the LORD had closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech because of Sarah, Abraham's wife.

nkjv@Genesis:21:2 @ For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.

nkjv@Genesis:21:3 @ And Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him--whom Sarah bore to him--Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:21:4 @ Then Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.

nkjv@Genesis:21:5 @ Now Abraham was one hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.

nkjv@Genesis:21:7 @ She also said, "Who would have said to Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age."

nkjv@Genesis:21:8 @ So the child grew and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the same day that Isaac was weaned.

nkjv@Genesis:21:9 @ And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, scoffing.

nkjv@Genesis:21:10 @ Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, namely with Isaac."

nkjv@Genesis:21:11 @ And the matter was very displeasing in Abraham's sight because of his son.

nkjv@Genesis:21:12 @ But God said to Abraham, "Do not let it be displeasing in your sight because of the lad or because of your bondwoman. Whatever Sarah has said to you, listen to her voice; for in Isaac your seed shall be called.

nkjv@Genesis:21:14 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning, and took bread and a skin of water; and putting it on her shoulder, he gave it and the boy to Hagar, and sent her away. Then she departed and wandered in the Wilderness of Beersheba.

nkjv@Genesis:21:20 @ So God was with the lad; and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.

nkjv@Genesis:21:22 @ And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech and Phichol, the commander of his army, spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.

nkjv@Genesis:21:24 @ And Abraham said, "I will swear."

nkjv@Genesis:21:25 @ Then Abraham rebuked Abimelech because of a well of water which Abimelech's servants had seized.

nkjv@Genesis:21:27 @ So Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made a covenant.

nkjv@Genesis:21:28 @ And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.

nkjv@Genesis:21:29 @ Then Abimelech asked Abraham, "What is the meaning of these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves?"

nkjv@Genesis:21:30 @ And he said, "You will take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that they may be my witness that I have dug this well."

nkjv@Genesis:21:33 @ Then Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there called on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.

nkjv@Genesis:21:34 @ And Abraham stayed in the land of the Philistines many days.

nkjv@Genesis:22:1 @ Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:22:3 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.

nkjv@Genesis:22:4 @ Then on the third day Abraham lifted his eyes and saw the place afar off.

nkjv@Genesis:22:5 @ And Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey; the lad and I will go yonder and worship, and we will come back to you."

nkjv@Genesis:22:6 @ So Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife, and the two of them went together.

nkjv@Genesis:22:7 @ But Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, "My father!" And he said, "Here I am, my son." Then he said, "Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"

nkjv@Genesis:22:8 @ And Abraham said, "My son, God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering." So the two of them went together.

nkjv@Genesis:22:9 @ Then they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.

nkjv@Genesis:22:10 @ And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.

nkjv@Genesis:22:11 @ But the Angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" So he said, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:22:13 @ Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son.

nkjv@Genesis:22:14 @ And Abraham called the name of the place, The-LORD-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, "In the Mount of the LORD it shall be provided."

nkjv@Genesis:22:15 @ Then the Angel of the LORD called to Abraham a second time out of heaven,

nkjv@Genesis:22:19 @ So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.

nkjv@Genesis:22:20 @ Now it came to pass after these things that it was told Abraham, saying, "Indeed Milcah also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

nkjv@Genesis:22:21 @ Huz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,

nkjv@Genesis:22:23 @ And Bethuel begot Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

nkjv@Genesis:22:24 @ His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Thahash, and Maachah.

nkjv@Genesis:23:2 @ So Sarah died in Kirjath Arba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan, and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.

nkjv@Genesis:23:3 @ Then Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,

nkjv@Genesis:23:4 @ "I am a foreigner and a visitor among you. Give me property for a burial place among you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight."

nkjv@Genesis:23:5 @ And the sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,

nkjv@Genesis:23:6 @ "Hear us, my lord: You are a mighty prince among us; bury your dead in the choicest of our burial places. None of us will withhold from you his burial place, that you may bury your dead."

nkjv@Genesis:23:7 @ Then Abraham stood up and bowed himself to the people of the land, the sons of Heth.

nkjv@Genesis:23:9 @ that he may give me the cave of Machpelah which he has, which is at the end of his field. Let him give it to me at the full price, as property for a burial place among you."

nkjv@Genesis:23:10 @ Now Ephron dwelt among the sons of Heth; and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the presence of the sons of Heth, all who entered at the gate of his city, saying,

nkjv@Genesis:23:12 @ Then Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land;

nkjv@Genesis:23:14 @ And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,

nkjv@Genesis:23:16 @ And Abraham listened to Ephron; and Abraham weighed out the silver for Ephron which he had named in the hearing of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, currency of the merchants.

nkjv@Genesis:23:17 @ So the field of Ephron which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field and the cave which was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, which were within all the surrounding borders, were deeded

nkjv@Genesis:23:18 @ to Abraham as a possession in the presence of the sons of Heth, before all who went in at the gate of his city.

nkjv@Genesis:23:19 @ And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah, before Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:23:20 @ So the field and the cave that is in it were deeded to Abraham by the sons of Heth as property for a burial place.

nkjv@Genesis:24:1 @ Now Abraham was old, well advanced in age; and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.

nkjv@Genesis:24:2 @ So Abraham said to the oldest servant of his house, who ruled over all that he had, "Please, put your hand under my thigh,

nkjv@Genesis:24:3 @ and I will make you swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell;

nkjv@Genesis:24:5 @ And the servant said to him, "Perhaps the woman will not be willing to follow me to this land. Must I take your son back to the land from which you came?"

nkjv@Genesis:24:6 @ But Abraham said to him, "Beware that you do not take my son back there.

nkjv@Genesis:24:7 @ The LORD God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my family, and who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, "To your descendants I give this land,' He will send His angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.

nkjv@Genesis:24:9 @ So the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning this matter.

nkjv@Genesis:24:10 @ Then the servant took ten of his master's camels and departed, for all his master's goods were in his hand. And he arose and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor.

nkjv@Genesis:24:11 @ And he made his camels kneel down outside the city by a well of water at evening time, the time when women go out to draw water.

nkjv@Genesis:24:12 @ Then he said, "O LORD God of my master Abraham, please give me success this day, and show kindness to my master Abraham.

nkjv@Genesis:24:14 @ Now let it be that the young woman to whom I say, "Please let down your pitcher that I may drink,' and she says, "Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink'--let her be the one You have appointed for Your servant Isaac. And by this I will know that You have shown kindness to my master."

nkjv@Genesis:24:15 @ And it happened, before he had finished speaking, that behold, Rebekah, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, came out with her pitcher on her shoulder.

nkjv@Genesis:24:16 @ Now the young woman was very beautiful to behold, a virgin; no man had known her. And she went down to the well, filled her pitcher, and came up.

nkjv@Genesis:24:19 @ And when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, "I will draw water for your camels also, until they have finished drinking."

nkjv@Genesis:24:20 @ Then she quickly emptied her pitcher into the trough, ran back to the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels.

nkjv@Genesis:24:22 @ So it was, when the camels had finished drinking, that the man took a golden nose ring weighing half a shekel, and two bracelets for her wrists weighing ten shekels of gold,

nkjv@Genesis:24:24 @ So she said to him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel, Milcah's son, whom she bore to Nahor."

nkjv@Genesis:24:27 @ And he said, "Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken His mercy and His truth toward my master. As for me, being on the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master's brethren."

nkjv@Genesis:24:29 @ Now Rebekah had a brother whose name was Laban, and Laban ran out to the man by the well.

nkjv@Genesis:24:30 @ So it came to pass, when he saw the nose ring, and the bracelets on his sister's wrists, and when he heard the words of his sister Rebekah, saying, "Thus the man spoke to me," that he went to the man. And there he stood by the camels at the well.

nkjv@Genesis:24:31 @ And he said, "Come in, O blessed of the LORD! Why do you stand outside? For I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels."

nkjv@Genesis:24:32 @ Then the man came to the house. And he unloaded the camels, and provided straw and feed for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who were with him.

nkjv@Genesis:24:34 @ So he said, "I am Abraham's servant.

nkjv@Genesis:24:35 @ The LORD has blessed my master greatly, and he has become great; and He has given him flocks and herds, silver and gold, male and female servants, and camels and donkeys.

nkjv@Genesis:24:38 @ but you shall go to my father's house and to my family, and take a wife for my son.'

nkjv@Genesis:24:40 @ But he said to me, "The LORD, before whom I walk, will send His angel with you and prosper your way; and you shall take a wife for my son from my family and from my father's house.

nkjv@Genesis:24:41 @ You will be clear from this oath when you arrive among my family; for if they will not give her to you, then you will be released from my oath.'

nkjv@Genesis:24:42 @ "And this day I came to the well and said, "O LORD God of my master Abraham, if You will now prosper the way in which I go,

nkjv@Genesis:24:44 @ and she says to me, "Drink, and I will draw for your camels also,"--let her be the woman whom the LORD has appointed for my master's son.'

nkjv@Genesis:24:46 @ And she made haste and let her pitcher down from her shoulder, and said, "Drink, and I will give your camels a drink also.' So I drank, and she gave the camels a drink also.

nkjv@Genesis:24:48 @ And I bowed my head and worshiped the LORD, and blessed the LORD God of my master Abraham, who had led me in the way of truth to take the daughter of my master's brother for his son.

nkjv@Genesis:24:52 @ And it came to pass, when Abraham's servant heard their words, that he worshiped the LORD, bowing himself to the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:24:59 @ So they sent away Rebekah their sister and her nurse, and Abraham's servant and his men.

nkjv@Genesis:24:61 @ Then Rebekah and her maids arose, and they rode on the camels and followed the man. So the servant took Rebekah and departed.

nkjv@Genesis:24:62 @ Now Isaac came from the way of Beer Lahai Roi, for he dwelt in the South.

nkjv@Genesis:24:63 @ And Isaac went out to meditate in the field in the evening; and he lifted his eyes and looked, and there, the camels were coming.

nkjv@Genesis:24:64 @ Then Rebekah lifted her eyes, and when she saw Isaac she dismounted from her camel;

nkjv@Genesis:24:67 @ Then Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent; and he took Rebekah and she became his wife, and he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.

nkjv@Genesis:25:1 @ Abraham again took a wife, and her name was Keturah.

nkjv@Genesis:25:5 @ And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:25:6 @ But Abraham gave gifts to the sons of the concubines which Abraham had; and while he was still living he sent them eastward, away from Isaac his son, to the country of the east.

nkjv@Genesis:25:7 @ This is the sum of the years of Abraham's life which he lived: one hundred and seventy-five years.

nkjv@Genesis:25:8 @ Then Abraham breathed his last and died in a good old age, an old man and full of years, and was gathered to his people.

nkjv@Genesis:25:9 @ And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite,

nkjv@Genesis:25:10 @ the field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth. There Abraham was buried, and Sarah his wife.

nkjv@Genesis:25:11 @ And it came to pass, after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac dwelt at Beer Lahai Roi.

nkjv@Genesis:25:12 @ Now this is the genealogy of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's maidservant, bore to Abraham.

nkjv@Genesis:25:13 @ And these were the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: The firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

nkjv@Genesis:25:16 @ These were the sons of Ishmael and these were their names, by their towns and their settlements, twelve princes according to their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:25:19 @ This is the genealogy of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham begot Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:25:20 @ Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah as wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padan Aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian.

nkjv@Genesis:25:22 @ But the children struggled together within her; and she said, "If all is well, why am I like this?

nkjv@Genesis:25:25 @ And the first came out red. He was like a hairy garment all over; so they called his name Esau.

nkjv@Genesis:25:26 @ Afterward his brother came out, and his hand took hold of Esau's heel; so his name was called Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

nkjv@Genesis:25:28 @ And Isaac loved Esau because he ate of his game, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

nkjv@Genesis:25:29 @ Now Jacob cooked a stew; and Esau came in from the field, and he was weary.

nkjv@Genesis:25:30 @ And Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am weary." Therefore his name was called Edom.

nkjv@Genesis:25:32 @ And Esau said, "Look, I am about to die; so what is this birthright to me?"

nkjv@Genesis:26:1 @ There was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines, in Gerar.

nkjv@Genesis:26:3 @ Dwell in this land, and I will be with you and bless you; for to you and your descendants I give all these lands, and I will perform the oath which I swore to Abraham your father.

nkjv@Genesis:26:5 @ because Abraham obeyed My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws."

nkjv@Genesis:26:8 @ Now it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked through a window, and saw, and there was Isaac, showing endearment to Rebekah his wife.

nkjv@Genesis:26:12 @ Then Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the LORD blessed him.

nkjv@Genesis:26:13 @ The man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous;

nkjv@Genesis:26:15 @ Now the Philistines had stopped up all the wells which his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, and they had filled them with earth.

nkjv@Genesis:26:18 @ And Isaac dug again the wells of water which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father, for the Philistines had stopped them up after the death of Abraham. He called them by the names which his father had called them.

nkjv@Genesis:26:20 @ But the herdsmen of Gerar quarreled with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, "The water is ours." So he called the name of the well Esek, because they quarreled with him.

nkjv@Genesis:26:21 @ Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over that one also. So he called its name Sitnah.

nkjv@Genesis:26:22 @ And he moved from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. So he called its name Rehoboth, because he said, "For now the LORD has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land."

nkjv@Genesis:26:24 @ And the LORD appeared to him the same night and said, "I am the God of your father Abraham; do not fear, for I am with you. I will bless you and multiply your descendants for My servant Abraham's sake."

nkjv@Genesis:26:25 @ So he built an altar there and called on the name of the LORD, and he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac's servants dug a well.

nkjv@Genesis:26:26 @ Then Abimelech came to him from Gerar with Ahuzzath, one of his friends, and Phichol the commander of his army.

nkjv@Genesis:26:32 @ It came to pass the same day that Isaac's servants came and told him about the well which they had dug, and said to him, "We have found water."

nkjv@Genesis:26:33 @ So he called it Shebah. Therefore the name of the city is Beersheba to this day.

nkjv@Genesis:27:1 @ Now it came to pass, when Isaac was old and his eyes were so dim that he could not see, that he called Esau his older son and said to him, "My son." And he answered him, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:27:2 @ Then he said, "Behold now, I am old. I do not know the day of my death.

nkjv@Genesis:27:3 @ Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.

nkjv@Genesis:27:5 @ Now Rebekah was listening when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt game and to bring it.

nkjv@Genesis:27:7 @ "Bring me game and make savory food for me, that I may eat it and bless you in the presence of the LORD before my death.'

nkjv@Genesis:27:11 @ And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, "Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth-skinned man.

nkjv@Genesis:27:18 @ So he went to his father and said, "My father." And he said, "Here I am. Who are you, my son?"

nkjv@Genesis:27:19 @ Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your firstborn; I have done just as you told me; please arise, sit and eat of my game, that your soul may bless me."

nkjv@Genesis:27:24 @ Then he said, "Are you really my son Esau?" He said, "I am."

nkjv@Genesis:27:25 @ He said, "Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's game, so that my soul may bless you." So he brought it near to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine, and he drank.

nkjv@Genesis:27:27 @ And he came near and kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him and said: "Surely, the smell of my son Is like the smell of a field Which the LORD has blessed.

nkjv@Genesis:27:30 @ Now it happened, as soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had scarcely gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.

nkjv@Genesis:27:31 @ He also had made savory food, and brought it to his father, and said to his father, "Let my father arise and eat of his son's game, that your soul may bless me."

nkjv@Genesis:27:32 @ And his father Isaac said to him, "Who are you?" So he said, "I am your son, your firstborn, Esau."

nkjv@Genesis:27:33 @ Then Isaac trembled exceedingly, and said, "Who? Where is the one who hunted game and brought it to me? I ate all of it before you came, and I have blessed him--and indeed he shall be blessed."

nkjv@Genesis:27:35 @ But he said, "Your brother came with deceit and has taken away your blessing."

nkjv@Genesis:27:36 @ And Esau said, "Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has supplanted me these two times. He took away my birthright, and now look, he has taken away my blessing!" And he said, "Have you not reserved a blessing for me?"

nkjv@Genesis:27:46 @ And Rebekah said to Isaac, "I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob takes a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these who are the daughters of the land, what good will my life be to me?"

nkjv@Genesis:28:2 @ Arise, go to Padan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father; and take yourself a wife from there of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.

nkjv@Genesis:28:4 @ And give you the blessing of Abraham, To you and your descendants with you, That you may inherit the land In which you are a stranger, Which God gave to Abraham."

nkjv@Genesis:28:5 @ So Isaac sent Jacob away, and he went to Padan Aram, to Laban the son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

nkjv@Genesis:28:6 @ Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Padan Aram to take himself a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a charge, saying, "You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan,"

nkjv@Genesis:28:7 @ and that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother and had gone to Padan Aram.

nkjv@Genesis:28:9 @ So Esau went to Ishmael and took Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife in addition to the wives he had.

nkjv@Genesis:28:11 @ So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep.

nkjv@Genesis:28:12 @ Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.

nkjv@Genesis:28:13 @ And behold, the LORD stood above it and said: "I am the LORD God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants.

nkjv@Genesis:28:19 @ And he called the name of that place Bethel; but the name of that city had been Luz previously.

nkjv@Genesis:28:20 @ Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and keep me in this way that I am going, and give me bread to eat and clothing to put on,

nkjv@Genesis:29:1 @ So Jacob went on his journey and came to the land of the people of the East.

nkjv@Genesis:29:9 @ Now while he was still speaking with them, Rachel came with her father's sheep, for she was a shepherdess.

nkjv@Genesis:29:10 @ And it came to pass, when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, that Jacob went near and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.

nkjv@Genesis:29:13 @ Then it came to pass, when Laban heard the report about Jacob his sister's son, that he ran to meet him, and embraced him and kissed him, and brought him to his house. So he told Laban all these things.

nkjv@Genesis:29:16 @ Now Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.

nkjv@Genesis:29:23 @ Now it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter and brought her to Jacob; and he went in to her.

nkjv@Genesis:29:25 @ So it came to pass in the morning, that behold, it was Leah. And he said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served you? Why then have you deceived me?"

nkjv@Genesis:29:32 @ So Leah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben; for she said, "The LORD has surely looked on my affliction. Now therefore, my husband will love me."

nkjv@Genesis:29:33 @ Then she conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Because the LORD has heard that I am unloved, He has therefore given me this son also." And she called his name Simeon.

nkjv@Genesis:29:34 @ She conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Now this time my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons." Therefore his name was called Levi.

nkjv@Genesis:29:35 @ And she conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Now I will praise the LORD." Therefore she called his name Judah. Then she stopped bearing.

nkjv@Genesis:30:2 @ And Jacob's anger was aroused against Rachel, and he said, "Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?"

nkjv@Genesis:30:6 @ Then Rachel said, "God has judged my case; and He has also heard my voice and given me a son." Therefore she called his name Dan.

nkjv@Genesis:30:8 @ Then Rachel said, "With great wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister, and indeed I have prevailed." So she called his name Naphtali.

nkjv@Genesis:30:11 @ Then Leah said, "A troop comes!" So she called his name Gad.

nkjv@Genesis:30:13 @ Then Leah said, "I am happy, for the daughters will call me blessed." So she called his name Asher.

nkjv@Genesis:30:16 @ When Jacob came out of the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, "You must come in to me, for I have surely hired you with my son's mandrakes." And he lay with her that night.

nkjv@Genesis:30:18 @ Leah said, "God has given me my wages, because I have given my maid to my husband." So she called his name Issachar.

nkjv@Genesis:30:20 @ And Leah said, "God has endowed me with a good endowment; now my husband will dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons." So she called his name Zebulun.

nkjv@Genesis:30:21 @ Afterward she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.

nkjv@Genesis:30:24 @ So she called his name Joseph, and said, "The LORD shall add to me another son."

nkjv@Genesis:30:25 @ And it came to pass, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, "Send me away, that I may go to my own place and to my country.

nkjv@Genesis:30:28 @ Then he said, "Name me your wages, and I will give it."

nkjv@Genesis:30:30 @ For what you had before I came was little, and it has increased to a great amount; the LORD has blessed you since my coming. And now, when shall I also provide for my own house?"

nkjv@Genesis:30:32 @ Let me pass through all your flock today, removing from there all the speckled and spotted sheep, and all the brown ones among the lambs, and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and these shall be my wages.

nkjv@Genesis:30:33 @ So my righteousness will answer for me in time to come, when the subject of my wages comes before you: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the lambs, will be considered stolen, if it is with me."

nkjv@Genesis:30:35 @ So he removed that day the male goats that were speckled and spotted, all the female goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had some white in it, and all the brown ones among the lambs, and gave them into the hand of his sons.

nkjv@Genesis:30:38 @ And the rods which he had peeled, he set before the flocks in the gutters, in the watering troughs where the flocks came to drink, so that they should conceive when they came to drink.

nkjv@Genesis:30:40 @ Then Jacob separated the lambs, and made the flocks face toward the streaked and all the brown in the flock of Laban; but he put his own flocks by themselves and did not put them with Laban's flock.

nkjv@Genesis:30:41 @ And it came to pass, whenever the stronger livestock conceived, that Jacob placed the rods before the eyes of the livestock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.

nkjv@Genesis:30:43 @ Thus the man became exceedingly prosperous, and had large flocks, female and male servants, and camels and donkeys.

nkjv@Genesis:31:3 @ Then the LORD said to Jacob, "Return to the land of your fathers and to your family, and I will be with you."

nkjv@Genesis:31:10 @ "And it happened, at the time when the flocks conceived, that I lifted my eyes and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon the flocks were streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted.

nkjv@Genesis:31:11 @ Then the Angel of God spoke to me in a dream, saying, "Jacob.' And I said, "Here I am.'

nkjv@Genesis:31:12 @ And He said, "Lift your eyes now and see, all the rams which leap on the flocks are streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted; for I have seen all that Laban is doing to you.

nkjv@Genesis:31:13 @ I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar and where you made a vow to Me. Now arise, get out of this land, and return to the land of your family."'

nkjv@Genesis:31:17 @ Then Jacob rose and set his sons and his wives on camels.

nkjv@Genesis:31:18 @ And he carried away all his livestock and all his possessions which he had gained, his acquired livestock which he had gained in Padan Aram, to go to his father Isaac in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:31:24 @ But God had come to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said to him, "Be careful that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad."

nkjv@Genesis:31:34 @ Now Rachel had taken the household idols, put them in the camel's saddle, and sat on them. And Laban searched all about the tent but did not find them.

nkjv@Genesis:31:38 @ These twenty years I have been with you; your ewes and your female goats have not miscarried their young, and I have not eaten the rams of your flock.

nkjv@Genesis:31:42 @ Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked you last night."

nkjv@Genesis:31:48 @ And Laban said, "This heap is a witness between you and me this day." Therefore its name was called Galeed,

nkjv@Genesis:31:53 @ The God of Abraham, the God of Nahor, and the God of their father judge between us." And Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:32:2 @ When Jacob saw them, he said, "This is God's camp." And he called the name of that place Mahanaim.

nkjv@Genesis:32:6 @ Then the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau, and he also is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him."

nkjv@Genesis:32:7 @ So Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two companies.

nkjv@Genesis:32:9 @ Then Jacob said, "O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, the LORD who said to me, "Return to your country and to your family, and I will deal well with you':

nkjv@Genesis:32:10 @ I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies and of all the truth which You have shown Your servant; for I crossed over this Jordan with my staff, and now I have become two companies.

nkjv@Genesis:32:13 @ So he lodged there that same night, and took what came to his hand as a present for Esau his brother:

nkjv@Genesis:32:14 @ two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,

nkjv@Genesis:32:15 @ thirty milk camels with their colts, forty cows and ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten foals.

nkjv@Genesis:32:21 @ So the present went on over before him, but he himself lodged that night in the camp.

nkjv@Genesis:32:27 @ So He said to him, "What is your name?" He said, "Jacob."

nkjv@Genesis:32:28 @ And He said, "Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed."

nkjv@Genesis:32:29 @ Then Jacob asked, saying, "Tell me Your name, I pray." And He said, "Why is it that you ask about My name?" And He blessed him there.

nkjv@Genesis:32:30 @ So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: "For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved."

nkjv@Genesis:33:1 @ Now Jacob lifted his eyes and looked, and there, Esau was coming, and with him were four hundred men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants.

nkjv@Genesis:33:3 @ Then he crossed over before them and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.

nkjv@Genesis:33:6 @ Then the maidservants came near, they and their children, and bowed down.

nkjv@Genesis:33:7 @ And Leah also came near with her children, and they bowed down. Afterward Joseph and Rachel came near, and they bowed down.

nkjv@Genesis:33:17 @ And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, built himself a house, and made booths for his livestock. Therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.

nkjv@Genesis:33:18 @ Then Jacob came safely to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padan Aram; and he pitched his tent before the city.

nkjv@Genesis:33:19 @ And he bought the parcel of land, where he had pitched his tent, from the children of Hamor, Shechem's father, for one hundred pieces of money.

nkjv@Genesis:34:2 @ And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her and lay with her, and violated her.

nkjv@Genesis:34:4 @ So Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, "Get me this young woman as a wife."

nkjv@Genesis:34:5 @ And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. Now his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Jacob held his peace until they came.

nkjv@Genesis:34:6 @ Then Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.

nkjv@Genesis:34:7 @ And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were grieved and very angry, because he had done a disgraceful thing in Israel by lying with Jacob's daughter, a thing which ought not to be done.

nkjv@Genesis:34:8 @ But Hamor spoke with them, saying, "The soul of my son Shechem longs for your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.

nkjv@Genesis:34:13 @ But the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father, and spoke deceitfully, because he had defiled Dinah their sister.

nkjv@Genesis:34:18 @ And their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.

nkjv@Genesis:34:20 @ And Hamor and Shechem his son came to the gate of their city, and spoke with the men of their city, saying:

nkjv@Genesis:34:22 @ Only on this condition will the men consent to dwell with us, to be one people: if every male among us is circumcised as they are circumcised.

nkjv@Genesis:34:24 @ And all who went out of the gate of his city heeded Hamor and Shechem his son; every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.

nkjv@Genesis:34:25 @ Now it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each took his sword and came boldly upon the city and killed all the males.

nkjv@Genesis:34:26 @ And they killed Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah from Shechem's house, and went out.

nkjv@Genesis:34:27 @ The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plundered the city, because their sister had been defiled.

nkjv@Genesis:34:30 @ Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have troubled me by making me obnoxious among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and since I am few in number, they will gather themselves together against me and kill me. I shall be destroyed, my household and I."

nkjv@Genesis:35:2 @ And Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, "Put away the foreign gods that are among you, purify yourselves, and change your garments.

nkjv@Genesis:35:6 @ So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.

nkjv@Genesis:35:8 @ Now Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the terebinth tree. So the name of it was called Allon Bachuth.

nkjv@Genesis:35:9 @ Then God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Padan Aram, and blessed him.

nkjv@Genesis:35:10 @ And God said to him, "Your name is Jacob; your name shall not be called Jacob anymore, but Israel shall be your name." So He called his name Israel.

nkjv@Genesis:35:11 @ Also God said to him: "I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall proceed from you, and kings shall come from your body.

nkjv@Genesis:35:12 @ The land which I gave Abraham and Isaac I give to you; and to your descendants after you I give this land."

nkjv@Genesis:35:15 @ And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.

nkjv@Genesis:35:17 @ Now it came to pass, when she was in hard labor, that the midwife said to her, "Do not fear; you will have this son also."

nkjv@Genesis:35:18 @ And so it was, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-Oni; but his father called him Benjamin.

nkjv@Genesis:35:24 @ the sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin;

nkjv@Genesis:41:55 @ So when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Then Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, "Go to Joseph; whatever he says to you, do."

nkjv@Genesis:41:56 @ The famine was over all the face of the earth, and Joseph opened all the storehouses and sold to the Egyptians. And the famine became severe in the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:41:57 @ So all countries came to Joseph in Egypt to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all lands.

nkjv@Genesis:42:4 @ But Jacob did not send Joseph's brother Benjamin with his brothers, for he said, "Lest some calamity befall him."

nkjv@Genesis:42:5 @ And the sons of Israel went to buy grain among those who journeyed, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:42:6 @ Now Joseph was governor over the land; and it was he who sold to all the people of the land. And Joseph's brothers came and bowed down before him with their faces to the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:42:9 @ Then Joseph remembered the dreams which he had dreamed about them, and said to them, "You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land!"

nkjv@Genesis:42:19 @ If you are honest men, let one of your brothers be confined to your prison house; but you, go and carry grain for the famine of your houses.

nkjv@Genesis:42:27 @ But as one of them opened his sack to give his donkey feed at the encampment, he saw his money; and there it was, in the mouth of his sack.

nkjv@Genesis:42:33 @ Then the man, the lord of the country, said to us, "By this I will know that you are honest men: Leave one of your brothers here with me, take food for the famine of your households, and be gone.

nkjv@Genesis:42:36 @ And Jacob their father said to them, "You have bereaved me: Joseph is no more, Simeon is no more, and you want to take Benjamin. All these things are against me."

nkjv@Genesis:42:38 @ But he said, "My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he is left alone. If any calamity should befall him along the way in which you go, then you would bring down my gray hair with sorrow to the grave."

nkjv@Genesis:43:1 @ Now the famine was severe in the land.

nkjv@Genesis:43:2 @ And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the grain which they had brought from Egypt, that their father said to them, "Go back, buy us a little food."

nkjv@Genesis:43:7 @ But they said, "The man asked us pointedly about ourselves and our family, saying, "Is your father still alive? Have you another brother?' And we told him according to these words. Could we possibly have known that he would say, "Bring your brother down'?"

nkjv@Genesis:43:9 @ I myself will be surety for him; from my hand you shall require him. If I do not bring him back to you and set him before you, then let me bear the blame forever.

nkjv@Genesis:43:14 @ And may God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may release your other brother and Benjamin. If I am bereaved, I am bereaved!"

nkjv@Genesis:43:15 @ So the men took that present and Benjamin, and they took double money in their hand, and arose and went down to Egypt; and they stood before Joseph.

nkjv@Genesis:43:16 @ When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the steward of his house, "Take these men to my home, and slaughter an animal and make ready; for these men will dine with me at noon."

nkjv@Genesis:43:20 @ and said, "O sir, we indeed came down the first time to buy food;

nkjv@Genesis:43:21 @ but it happened, when we came to the encampment, that we opened our sacks, and there, each man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight; so we have brought it back in our hand.

nkjv@Genesis:43:26 @ And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed down before him to the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:43:29 @ Then he lifted his eyes and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, "Is this your younger brother of whom you spoke to me?" And he said, "God be gracious to you, my son."

nkjv@Genesis:43:30 @ Now his heart yearned for his brother; so Joseph made haste and sought somewhere to weep. And he went into his chamber and wept there.

nkjv@Genesis:43:31 @ Then he washed his face and came out; and he restrained himself, and said, "Serve the bread."

nkjv@Genesis:43:34 @ Then he took servings to them from before him, but Benjamin's serving was five times as much as any of theirs. So they drank and were merry with him.

nkjv@Genesis:44:6 @ So he overtook them, and he spoke to them these same words.

nkjv@Genesis:44:10 @ And he said, "Now also let it be according to your words; he with whom it is found shall be my slave, and you shall be blameless."

nkjv@Genesis:44:12 @ So he searched. He began with the oldest and left off with the youngest; and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.

nkjv@Genesis:44:14 @ So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, and he was still there; and they fell before him on the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:44:18 @ Then Judah came near to him and said: "O my lord, please let your servant speak a word in my lord's hearing, and do not let your anger burn against your servant; for you are even like Pharaoh.

nkjv@Genesis:44:29 @ But if you take this one also from me, and calamity befalls him, you shall bring down my gray hair with sorrow to the grave.'

nkjv@Genesis:44:32 @ For your servant became surety for the lad to my father, saying, "If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the blame before my father forever.'

nkjv@Genesis:45:3 @ Then Joseph said to his brothers, "I am Joseph; does my father still live?" But his brothers could not answer him, for they were dismayed in his presence.

nkjv@Genesis:45:4 @ And Joseph said to his brothers, "Please come near to me." So they came near. Then he said: "I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:45:6 @ For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting.

nkjv@Genesis:45:11 @ There I will provide for you, lest you and your household, and all that you have, come to poverty; for there are still five years of famine."'

nkjv@Genesis:45:12 @ "And behold, your eyes and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see that it is my mouth that speaks to you.

nkjv@Genesis:45:14 @ Then he fell on his brother Benjamin's neck and wept, and Benjamin wept on his neck.

nkjv@Genesis:45:22 @ He gave to all of them, to each man, changes of garments; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of garments.

nkjv@Genesis:45:25 @ Then they went up out of Egypt, and came to the land of Canaan to Jacob their father.

nkjv@Genesis:46:1 @ So Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:46:2 @ Then God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob!" And he said, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:46:3 @ So He said, "I am God, the God of your father; do not fear to go down to Egypt, for I will make of you a great nation there.

nkjv@Genesis:46:8 @ Now these were the names of the children of Israel, Jacob and his sons, who went to Egypt: Reuben was Jacob's firstborn.

nkjv@Genesis:46:10 @ The sons of Simeon were Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman.

nkjv@Genesis:46:12 @ The sons of Judah were Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan). The sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.

nkjv@Genesis:46:15 @ These were the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Padan Aram, with his daughter Dinah. All the persons, his sons and his daughters, were thirty-three.

nkjv@Genesis:46:19 @ The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife, were Joseph and Benjamin.

nkjv@Genesis:46:21 @ The sons of Benjamin were Belah, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard.

nkjv@Genesis:46:26 @ All the persons who went with Jacob to Egypt, who came from his body, besides Jacob's sons' wives, were sixty-six persons in all.

nkjv@Genesis:46:28 @ Then he sent Judah before him to Joseph, to point out before him the way to Goshen. And they came to the land of Goshen.

nkjv@Genesis:47:2 @ And he took five men from among his brothers and presented them to Pharaoh.

nkjv@Genesis:47:4 @ And they said to Pharaoh, "We have come to dwell in the land, because your servants have no pasture for their flocks, for the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen."

nkjv@Genesis:47:6 @ The land of Egypt is before you. Have your father and brothers dwell in the best of the land; let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know any competent men among them, then make them chief herdsmen over my livestock."

nkjv@Genesis:47:11 @ And Joseph situated his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

nkjv@Genesis:47:12 @ Then Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all his father's household with bread, according to the number in their families.

nkjv@Genesis:47:13 @ Now there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished because of the famine.

nkjv@Genesis:47:15 @ So when the money failed in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph and said, "Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For the money has failed."

nkjv@Genesis:47:18 @ When that year had ended, they came to him the next year and said to him, "We will not hide from my lord that our money is gone; my lord also has our herds of livestock. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord but our bodies and our lands.

nkjv@Genesis:47:20 @ Then Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe upon them. So the land became Pharaoh's.

nkjv@Genesis:48:1 @ Now it came to pass after these things that Joseph was told, "Indeed your father is sick"; and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.

nkjv@Genesis:48:5 @ And now your two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.

nkjv@Genesis:48:6 @ Your offspring whom you beget after them shall be yours; they will be called by the name of their brothers in their inheritance.

nkjv@Genesis:48:7 @ But as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died beside me in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was but a little distance to go to Ephrath; and I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem)."

nkjv@Genesis:48:15 @ And he blessed Joseph, and said: "God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, The God who has fed me all my life long to this day,

nkjv@Genesis:48:16 @ The Angel who has redeemed me from all evil, Bless the lads; Let my name be named upon them, And the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; And let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:48:21 @ Then Israel said to Joseph, "Behold, I am dying, but God will be with you and bring you back to the land of your fathers.

nkjv@Genesis:48:22 @ Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took from the hand of the Amorite with my sword and my bow."

nkjv@Genesis:49:6 @ Let not my soul enter their council; Let not my honor be united to their assembly; For in their anger they slew a man, And in their self-will they hamstrung an ox.

nkjv@Genesis:49:15 @ He saw that rest was good, And that the land was pleasant; He bowed his shoulder to bear a burden, And became a band of slaves.

nkjv@Genesis:49:19 @ "Gad, a troop shall tramp upon him, But he shall triumph at last.

nkjv@Genesis:49:27 @ "Benjamin is a ravenous wolf; In the morning he shall devour the prey, And at night he shall divide the spoil."

nkjv@Genesis:49:29 @ Then he charged them and said to them: "I am to be gathered to my people; bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,

nkjv@Genesis:49:30 @ in the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite as a possession for a burial place.

nkjv@Genesis:49:31 @ There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife, there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife, and there I buried Leah.

nkjv@Genesis:50:5 @ "My father made me swear, saying, "Behold, I am dying; in my grave which I dug for myself in the land of Canaan, there you shall bury me." Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will come back."'

nkjv@Genesis:50:10 @ Then they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, and they mourned there with a great and very solemn lamentation. He observed seven days of mourning for his father.

nkjv@Genesis:50:11 @ And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, "This is a deep mourning of the Egyptians." Therefore its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.

nkjv@Genesis:50:13 @ For his sons carried him to the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, before Mamre, which Abraham bought with the field from Ephron the Hittite as property for a burial place.

nkjv@Genesis:50:19 @ Joseph said to them, "Do not be afraid, for am I in the place of God?

nkjv@Genesis:50:24 @ And Joseph said to his brethren, "I am dying; but God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land to the land of which He swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob."

nkjv@Exodus:1:1 @ Now these are the names of the children of Israel who came to Egypt; each man and his household came with Jacob:

nkjv@Exodus:1:3 @ Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin;

nkjv@Exodus:1:11 @ Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh supply cities, Pithom and Raamses.

nkjv@Exodus:1:15 @ Then the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of one was Shiphrah and the name of the other Puah;

nkjv@Exodus:2:5 @ Then the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river. And her maidens walked along the riverside; and when she saw the ark among the reeds, she sent her maid to get it.

nkjv@Exodus:2:10 @ And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. So she called his name Moses, saying, "Because I drew him out of the water."

nkjv@Exodus:2:11 @ Now it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out to his brethren and looked at their burdens. And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren.

nkjv@Exodus:2:16 @ Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. And they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to water their father's flock.

nkjv@Exodus:2:17 @ Then the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.

nkjv@Exodus:2:18 @ When they came to Reuel their father, he said, "How is it that you have come so soon today?"

nkjv@Exodus:2:22 @ And she bore him a son. He called his name Gershom, for he said, "I have been a stranger in a foreign land."

nkjv@Exodus:2:23 @ Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.

nkjv@Exodus:2:24 @ So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

nkjv@Exodus:3:1 @ Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the desert, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.

nkjv@Exodus:3:2 @ And the Angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, but the bush was not consumed.

nkjv@Exodus:3:4 @ So when the LORD saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, "Moses, Moses!" And he said, "Here I am."

nkjv@Exodus:3:6 @ Moreover He said, "I am the God of your father--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.

nkjv@Exodus:3:8 @ So I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites.

nkjv@Exodus:3:11 @ But Moses said to God, "Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?"

nkjv@Exodus:3:13 @ Then Moses said to God, "Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, "The God of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they say to me, "What is His name?' what shall I say to them?"

nkjv@Exodus:3:14 @ And God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM." And He said, "Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, "I AM has sent me to you."'

nkjv@Exodus:4:3 @ And He said, "Cast it on the ground." So he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from it.

nkjv@Exodus:4:4 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Reach out your hand and take it by the tail" (and he reached out his hand and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand),

nkjv@Numbers:10:31 @ So Moses said, "Please do not leave, inasmuch as you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.

nkjv@Numbers:10:32 @ And it shall be, if you go with us--indeed it shall be--that whatever good the LORD will do to us, the same we will do to you."

nkjv@Numbers:10:34 @ And the cloud of the LORD was above them by day when they went out from the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:1 @ Now when the people complained, it displeased the LORD; for the LORD heard it, and His anger was aroused. So the fire of the LORD burned among them, and consumed some in the outskirts of the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:3 @ So he called the name of the place Taberah, because the fire of the LORD had burned among them.

nkjv@Numbers:11:4 @ Now the mixed multitude who were among them yielded to intense craving; so the children of Israel also wept again and said: "Who will give us meat to eat?

nkjv@Numbers:11:9 @ And when the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.

nkjv@Numbers:11:10 @ Then Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, everyone at the door of his tent; and the anger of the LORD was greatly aroused; Moses also was displeased.

nkjv@Numbers:11:13 @ Where am I to get meat to give to all these people? For they weep all over me, saying, "Give us meat, that we may eat.'

nkjv@Numbers:11:14 @ I am not able to bear all these people alone, because the burden is too heavy for me.

nkjv@Numbers:11:17 @ Then I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit that is upon you and will put the same upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you may not bear it yourself alone.

nkjv@Numbers:11:25 @ Then the LORD came down in the cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was upon him, and placed the same upon the seventy elders; and it happened, when the Spirit rested upon them, that they prophesied, although they never did so again.

nkjv@Numbers:11:26 @ But two men had remained in the camp: the name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad. And the Spirit rested upon them. Now they were among those listed, but who had not gone out to the tabernacle; yet they prophesied in the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:27 @ And a young man ran and told Moses, and said, "Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp."

nkjv@Numbers:11:30 @ And Moses returned to the camp, he and the elders of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:11:31 @ Now a wind went out from the LORD, and it brought quail from the sea and left them fluttering near the camp, about a day's journey on this side and about a day's journey on the other side, all around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the ground.

nkjv@Numbers:11:32 @ And the people stayed up all that day, all night, and all the next day, and gathered the quail (he who gathered least gathered ten homers); and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:34 @ So he called the name of that place Kibroth Hattaavah, because there they buried the people who had yielded to craving.

nkjv@Numbers:11:35 @ From Kibroth Hattaavah the people moved to Hazeroth, and camped at Hazeroth.

nkjv@Numbers:12:1 @ Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married; for he had married an Ethiopian woman.

nkjv@Numbers:12:4 @ Suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, "Come out, you three, to the tabernacle of meeting!" So the three came out.

nkjv@Numbers:12:5 @ Then the LORD came down in the pillar of cloud and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam. And they both went forward.

nkjv@Numbers:12:6 @ Then He said, If there is a prophet among you, I, the LORD, make Myself known to him in a vision; I speak to him in a dream.

nkjv@Numbers:12:10 @ And when the cloud departed from above the tabernacle, suddenly Miriam became leprous, as white as snow. Then Aaron turned toward Miriam, and there she was, a leper.

nkjv@Numbers:12:14 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "If her father had but spit in her face, would she not be shamed seven days? Let her be shut out of the camp seven days, and afterward she may be received again."

nkjv@Numbers:12:15 @ So Miriam was shut out of the camp seven days, and the people did not journey till Miriam was brought in again.

nkjv@Numbers:12:16 @ And afterward the people moved from Hazeroth and camped in the Wilderness of Paran.

nkjv@Numbers:13:2 @ "Send men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the children of Israel; from each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a leader among them."

nkjv@Numbers:13:4 @ Now these were their names: from the tribe of Reuben, Shammua the son of Zaccur;

nkjv@Numbers:13:9 @ from the tribe of Benjamin, Palti the son of Raphu;

nkjv@Numbers:13:12 @ from the tribe of Dan, Ammiel the son of Gemalli;

nkjv@Numbers:13:19 @ whether the land they dwell in is good or bad; whether the cities they inhabit are like camps or strongholds;

nkjv@Numbers:13:21 @ So they went up and spied out the land from the Wilderness of Zin as far as Rehob, near the entrance of Hamath.

nkjv@Numbers:13:22 @ And they went up through the South and came to Hebron; Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

nkjv@Numbers:13:23 @ Then they came to the Valley of Eshcol, and there cut down a branch with one cluster of grapes; they carried it between two of them on a pole. They also brought some of the pomegranates and figs.

nkjv@Numbers:13:26 @ Now they departed and came back to Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel in the Wilderness of Paran, at Kadesh; they brought back word to them and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land.

nkjv@Numbers:13:29 @ The Amalekites dwell in the land of the South; the Hittites, the Jebusites, and the Amorites dwell in the mountains; and the Canaanites dwell by the sea and along the banks of the Jordan."

nkjv@Numbers:13:33 @ There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight."

nkjv@Numbers:14:6 @ But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were among those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes;

nkjv@Numbers:14:11 @ Then the LORD said to Moses: "How long will these people reject Me? And how long will they not believe Me, with all the signs which I have performed among them?

nkjv@Numbers:14:13 @ And Moses said to the LORD: "Then the Egyptians will hear it, for by Your might You brought these people up from among them,

nkjv@Numbers:14:15 @ Now if You kill these people as one man, then the nations which have heard of Your fame will speak, saying,

nkjv@Numbers:14:25 @ Now the Amalekites and the Canaanites dwell in the valley; tomorrow turn and move out into the wilderness by the Way of the Red Sea."

nkjv@Numbers:14:34 @ According to the number of the days in which you spied out the land, forty days, for each day you shall bear your guilt one year, namely forty years, and you shall know My rejection.

nkjv@Numbers:14:42 @ Do not go up, lest you be defeated by your enemies, for the LORD is not among you.

nkjv@Numbers:14:43 @ For the Amalekites and the Canaanites are there before you, and you shall fall by the sword; because you have turned away from the LORD, the LORD will not be with you."

nkjv@Numbers:14:44 @ But they presumed to go up to the mountaintop. Nevertheless, neither the ark of the covenant of the LORD nor Moses departed from the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:14:45 @ Then the Amalekites and the Canaanites who dwelt in that mountain came down and attacked them, and drove them back as far as Hormah.

nkjv@Numbers:16:31 @ Now it came to pass, as he finished speaking all these words, that the ground split apart under them,

nkjv@Numbers:16:33 @ So they and all those with them went down alive into the pit; the earth closed over them, and they perished from among the assembly.

nkjv@Numbers:16:38 @ The censers of these men who sinned against their own souls, let them be made into hammered plates as a covering for the altar. Because they presented them before the LORD, therefore they are holy; and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel."

nkjv@Numbers:16:39 @ So Eleazar the priest took the bronze censers, which those who were burned up had presented, and they were hammered out as a covering on the altar,

nkjv@Numbers:16:43 @ Then Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of meeting.

nkjv@Numbers:20:22 @ Now the children of Israel, the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh and came to Mount Hor.

nkjv@Numbers:20:28 @ Moses stripped Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.

nkjv@Numbers:21:3 @ And the LORD listened to the voice of Israel and delivered up the Canaanites, and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. So the name of that place was called Hormah.

nkjv@Numbers:21:4 @ Then they journeyed from Mount Hor by the Way of the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became very discouraged on the way.

nkjv@Numbers:21:6 @ So the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died.

nkjv@Numbers:21:7 @ Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD and against you; pray to the LORD that He take away the serpents from us." So Moses prayed for the people.

nkjv@Numbers:21:10 @ Now the children of Israel moved on and camped in Oboth.

nkjv@Numbers:21:11 @ And they journeyed from Oboth and camped at Ije Abarim, in the wilderness which is east of Moab, toward the sunrise.

nkjv@Numbers:21:12 @ From there they moved and camped in the Valley of Zered.

nkjv@Numbers:21:13 @ From there they moved and camped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness that extends from the border of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

nkjv@Numbers:21:19 @ from Mattanah to Nahaliel, from Nahaliel to Bamoth,

nkjv@Numbers:21:20 @ and from Bamoth, in the valley that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah which looks down on the wasteland.

nkjv@Numbers:21:21 @ Then Israel sent messengers to Sihon king of the Amorites, saying,

nkjv@Numbers:21:23 @ But Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his territory. So Sihon gathered all his people together and went out against Israel in the wilderness, and he came to Jahaz and fought against Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:21:24 @ Then Israel defeated him with the edge of the sword, and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as the people of Ammon; for the border of the people of Ammon was fortified.

nkjv@Numbers:21:25 @ So Israel took all these cities, and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon and in all its villages.

nkjv@Numbers:21:26 @ For Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and had taken all his land from his hand as far as the Arnon.

nkjv@Numbers:21:28 @ "For fire went out from Heshbon, A flame from the city of Sihon; It consumed Ar of Moab, The lords of the heights of the Arnon.

nkjv@Numbers:21:29 @ Woe to you, Moab! You have perished, O people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, To Sihon king of the Amorites.

nkjv@Numbers:21:31 @ Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.

nkjv@Numbers:21:32 @ Then Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took its villages and drove out the Amorites who were there.

nkjv@Numbers:21:34 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Do not fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, with all his people and his land; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon."

nkjv@Numbers:22:1 @ Then the children of Israel moved, and camped in the plains of Moab on the side of the Jordan across from Jericho.

nkjv@Numbers:22:2 @ Now Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites.

nkjv@Numbers:22:5 @ Then he sent messengers to Balaam the son of Beor at Pethor, which is near the River in the land of the sons of his people, to call him, saying: "Look, a people has come from Egypt. See, they cover the face of the earth, and are settling next to me!

nkjv@Numbers:22:7 @ So the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the diviner's fee in their hand, and they came to Balaam and spoke to him the words of Balak.

nkjv@Numbers:22:8 @ And he said to them, "Lodge here tonight, and I will bring back word to you, as the LORD speaks to me." So the princes of Moab stayed with Balaam.

nkjv@Numbers:22:9 @ Then God came to Balaam and said, "Who are these men with you?"

nkjv@Numbers:22:10 @ So Balaam said to God, "Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, has sent to me, saying,

nkjv@Numbers:22:12 @ And God said to Balaam, "You shall not go with them; you shall not curse the people, for they are blessed."

nkjv@Numbers:22:14 @ And the princes of Moab rose and went to Balak, and said, "Balaam refuses to come with us."

nkjv@Numbers:22:16 @ And they came to Balaam and said to him, "Thus says Balak the son of Zippor: "Please let nothing hinder you from coming to me;

nkjv@Numbers:22:18 @ Then Balaam answered and said to the servants of Balak, "Though Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do less or more.

nkjv@Numbers:22:20 @ And God came to Balaam at night and said to him, "If the men come to call you, rise and go with them; but only the word which I speak to you--that you shall do."

nkjv@Numbers:22:21 @ So Balaam rose in the morning, saddled his donkey, and went with the princes of Moab.

nkjv@Numbers:22:23 @ Now the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand, and the donkey turned aside out of the way and went into the field. So Balaam struck the donkey to turn her back onto the road.

nkjv@Numbers:22:25 @ And when the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD, she pushed herself against the wall and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall; so he struck her again.

nkjv@Numbers:22:27 @ And when the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD, she lay down under Balaam; so Balaam's anger was aroused, and he struck the donkey with his staff.

nkjv@Numbers:22:28 @ Then the LORD opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, "What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?"

nkjv@Numbers:22:29 @ And Balaam said to the donkey, "Because you have abused me. I wish there were a sword in my hand, for now I would kill you!"

nkjv@Numbers:22:30 @ So the donkey said to Balaam, "Am I not your donkey on which you have ridden, ever since I became yours, to this day? Was I ever disposed to do this to you?" And he said, "No."

nkjv@Numbers:22:31 @ Then the LORD opened Balaam's eyes, and he saw the Angel of the LORD standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand; and he bowed his head and fell flat on his face.

nkjv@Numbers:22:34 @ And Balaam said to the Angel of the LORD, "I have sinned, for I did not know You stood in the way against me. Now therefore, if it displeases You, I will turn back."

nkjv@Numbers:22:35 @ Then the Angel of the LORD said to Balaam, "Go with the men, but only the word that I speak to you, that you shall speak." So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.

nkjv@Numbers:22:36 @ Now when Balak heard that Balaam was coming, he went out to meet him at the city of Moab, which is on the border at the Arnon, the boundary of the territory.

nkjv@Numbers:22:37 @ Then Balak said to Balaam, "Did I not earnestly send to you, calling for you? Why did you not come to me? Am I not able to honor you?"

nkjv@Numbers:22:38 @ And Balaam said to Balak, "Look, I have come to you! Now, have I any power at all to say anything? The word that God puts in my mouth, that I must speak."

nkjv@Numbers:22:39 @ So Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kirjath Huzoth.

nkjv@Numbers:22:40 @ Then Balak offered oxen and sheep, and he sent some to Balaam and to the princes who were with him.

nkjv@Numbers:22:41 @ So it was, the next day, that Balak took Balaam and brought him up to the high places of Baal, that from there he might observe the extent of the people.

nkjv@Numbers:23:1 @ Then Balaam said to Balak, "Build seven altars for me here, and prepare for me here seven bulls and seven rams."

nkjv@Numbers:23:2 @ And Balak did just as Balaam had spoken, and Balak and Balaam offered a bull and a ram on each altar.

nkjv@Numbers:23:3 @ Then Balaam said to Balak, "Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go; perhaps the LORD will come to meet me, and whatever He shows me I will tell you." So he went to a desolate height.

nkjv@Numbers:23:4 @ And God met Balaam, and he said to Him, "I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered on each altar a bull and a ram."

nkjv@Numbers:23:5 @ Then the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, "Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak."

nkjv@Numbers:23:7 @ And he took up his oracle and said: "Balak the king of Moab has brought me from Aram, From the mountains of the east. "Come, curse Jacob for me, And come, denounce Israel!'

nkjv@Numbers:23:9 @ For from the top of the rocks I see him, And from the hills I behold him; There! A people dwelling alone, Not reckoning itself among the nations.

nkjv@Numbers:23:11 @ Then Balak said to Balaam, "What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and look, you have blessed them bountifully!"

nkjv@Numbers:23:14 @ So he brought him to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bull and a ram on each altar.

nkjv@Numbers:23:16 @ Then the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, "Go back to Balak, and thus you shall speak."

nkjv@Numbers:23:17 @ So he came to him, and there he was, standing by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab were with him. And Balak said to him, "What has the LORD spoken?"

nkjv@Numbers:23:21 @ "He has not observed iniquity in Jacob, Nor has He seen wickedness in Israel. The LORD his God is with him, And the shout of a King is among them.

nkjv@Numbers:23:25 @ Then Balak said to Balaam, "Neither curse them at all, nor bless them at all!"

nkjv@Numbers:23:26 @ So Balaam answered and said to Balak, "Did I not tell you, saying, "All that the LORD speaks, that I must do'?"

nkjv@Numbers:23:27 @ Then Balak said to Balaam, "Please come, I will take you to another place; perhaps it will please God that you may curse them for me from there."

nkjv@Numbers:23:28 @ So Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, that overlooks the wasteland.

nkjv@Numbers:23:29 @ Then Balaam said to Balak, "Build for me here seven altars, and prepare for me here seven bulls and seven rams."

nkjv@Numbers:23:30 @ And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bull and a ram on every altar.

nkjv@Numbers:24:1 @ Now when Balaam saw that it pleased the LORD to bless Israel, he did not go as at other times, to seek to use sorcery, but he set his face toward the wilderness.

nkjv@Numbers:24:2 @ And Balaam raised his eyes, and saw Israel encamped according to their tribes; and the Spirit of God came upon him.

nkjv@Numbers:24:3 @ Then he took up his oracle and said: "The utterance of Balaam the son of Beor, The utterance of the man whose eyes are opened,

nkjv@Numbers:24:10 @ Then Balak's anger was aroused against Balaam, and he struck his hands together; and Balak said to Balaam, "I called you to curse my enemies, and look, you have bountifully blessed them these three times!

nkjv@Numbers:24:12 @ So Balaam said to Balak, "Did I not also speak to your messengers whom you sent to me, saying,

nkjv@Numbers:24:14 @ And now, indeed, I am going to my people. Come, I will advise you what this people will do to your people in the latter days."

nkjv@Numbers:24:15 @ So he took up his oracle and said: "The utterance of Balaam the son of Beor, And the utterance of the man whose eyes are opened;

nkjv@Numbers:24:20 @ Then he looked on Amalek, and he took up his oracle and said: "Amalek was first among the nations, But shall be last until he perishes."

nkjv@Numbers:24:24 @ But ships shall come from the coasts of Cyprus, And they shall afflict Asshur and afflict Eber, And so shall Amalek, until he perishes."

nkjv@Numbers:24:25 @ So Balaam rose and departed and returned to his place; Balak also went his way.

nkjv@Numbers:25:6 @ And indeed, one of the children of Israel came and presented to his brethren a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

nkjv@Numbers:25:7 @ Now when Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose from among the congregation and took a javelin in his hand;

nkjv@Numbers:25:8 @ and he went after the man of Israel into the tent and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stopped among the children of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:8:12 @ So he took about five thousand men and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city.

nkjv@Joshua:8:14 @ Now it happened, when the king of Ai saw it, that the men of the city hurried and rose early and went out against Israel to battle, he and all his people, at an appointed place before the plain. But he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.

nkjv@Joshua:8:19 @ So those in ambush arose quickly out of their place; they ran as soon as he had stretched out his hand, and they entered the city and took it, and hurried to set the city on fire.

nkjv@Joshua:8:21 @ Now when Joshua and all Israel saw that the ambush had taken the city and that the smoke of the city ascended, they turned back and struck down the men of Ai.

nkjv@Joshua:8:22 @ Then the others came out of the city against them; so they were caught in the midst of Israel, some on this side and some on that side. And they struck them down, so that they let none of them remain or escape.

nkjv@Joshua:8:24 @ And it came to pass when Israel had made an end of slaying all the inhabitants of Ai in the field, in the wilderness where they pursued them, and when they all had fallen by the edge of the sword until they were consumed, that all the Israelites returned to Ai and struck it with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@Joshua:8:33 @ Then all Israel, with their elders and officers and judges, stood on either side of the ark before the priests, the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of the LORD, the stranger as well as he who was born among them. Half of them were in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded before, that they should bless the people of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:8:35 @ There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded which Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel, with the women, the little ones, and the strangers who were living among them.

nkjv@Joshua:9:4 @ they worked craftily, and went and pretended to be ambassadors. And they took old sacks on their donkeys, old wineskins torn and mended,

nkjv@Joshua:9:6 @ And they went to Joshua, to the camp at Gilgal, and said to him and to the men of Israel, "We have come from a far country; now therefore, make a covenant with us."

nkjv@Joshua:9:7 @ Then the men of Israel said to the Hivites, "Perhaps you dwell among us; so how can we make a covenant with you?"

nkjv@Joshua:9:9 @ So they said to him: "From a very far country your servants have come, because of the name of the LORD your God; for we have heard of His fame, and all that He did in Egypt,

nkjv@Joshua:10:1 @ Now it came to pass when Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard how Joshua had taken Ai and had utterly destroyed it--as he had done to Jericho and its king, so he had done to Ai and its king--and how the inhabitants of Gibeon had made peace with Israel and were among them,

nkjv@Joshua:10:3 @ Therefore Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem sent to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish, and Debir king of Eglon, saying,

nkjv@Joshua:10:5 @ Therefore the five kings of the Amorites, the king of Jerusalem, the king of Hebron, the king of Jarmuth, the king of Lachish, and the king of Eglon, gathered together and went up, they and all their armies, and camped before Gibeon and made war against it.

nkjv@Joshua:10:6 @ And the men of Gibeon sent to Joshua at the camp at Gilgal, saying, "Do not forsake your servants; come up to us quickly, save us and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites who dwell in the mountains have gathered together against us."

nkjv@Joshua:10:9 @ Joshua therefore came upon them suddenly, having marched all night from Gilgal.

nkjv@Joshua:10:12 @ Then Joshua spoke to the LORD in the day when the LORD delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel: "Sun, stand still over Gibeon; And Moon, in the Valley of Aijalon."

nkjv@Joshua:10:21 @ And all the people returned to the camp, to Joshua at Makkedah, in peace. No one moved his tongue against any of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Joshua:10:31 @ Then Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, to Lachish; and they encamped against it and fought against it.

nkjv@Joshua:10:33 @ Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua struck him and his people, until he left him none remaining.

nkjv@Joshua:10:34 @ From Lachish Joshua passed to Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they encamped against it and fought against it.

nkjv@Joshua:10:43 @ Then Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to the camp at Gilgal.

nkjv@Joshua:11:1 @ And it came to pass, when Jabin king of Hazor heard these things, that he sent to Jobab king of Madon, to the king of Shimron, to the king of Achshaph,

nkjv@Joshua:11:3 @ to the Canaanites in the east and in the west, the Amorite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Jebusite in the mountains, and the Hivite below Hermon in the land of Mizpah.

nkjv@Joshua:11:9 @ So Joshua did to them as the LORD had told him: he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.

nkjv@Joshua:11:21 @ And at that time Joshua came and cut off the Anakim from the mountains: from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, from all the mountains of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel; Joshua utterly destroyed them with their cities.

nkjv@Joshua:14:15 @ And the name of Hebron formerly was Kirjath Arba (Arba was the greatest man among the Anakim). Then the land had rest from war.

nkjv@Joshua:15:1 @ So this was the lot of the tribe of the children of Judah according to their families: The border of Edom at the Wilderness of Zin southward was the extreme southern boundary.

nkjv@Joshua:15:12 @ The west border was the coastline of the Great Sea. This is the boundary of the children of Judah all around according to their families.

nkjv@Joshua:15:13 @ Now to Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a share among the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua, namely, Kirjath Arba, which is Hebron (Arba was the father of Anak).

nkjv@Joshua:17:1 @ There was also a lot for the tribe of Manasseh, for he was the firstborn of Joseph: namely for Machir the firstborn of Manasseh, the father of Gilead, because he was a man of war; therefore he was given Gilead and Bashan.

nkjv@Joshua:24:17 @ for the LORD our God is He who brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, who did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way that we went and among all the people through whom we passed.

nkjv@Joshua:24:18 @ And the LORD drove out from before us all the people, including the Amorites who dwelt in the land. We also will serve the LORD, for He is our God."

nkjv@Joshua:24:23 @ "Now therefore," he said, "put away the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to the LORD God of Israel."

nkjv@Joshua:24:29 @ Now it came to pass after these things that Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being one hundred and ten years old.

nkjv@Joshua:24:32 @ The bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel had brought up out of Egypt, they buried at Shechem, in the plot of ground which Jacob had bought from the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for one hundred pieces of silver, and which had become an inheritance of the children of Joseph.

nkjv@Judges:1:1 @ Now after the death of Joshua it came to pass that the children of Israel asked the LORD, saying, "Who shall be first to go up for us against the Canaanites to fight against them?"

nkjv@Judges:1:10 @ Then Judah went against the Canaanites who dwelt in Hebron. (Now the name of Hebron was formerly Kirjath Arba.) And they killed Sheshai, Ahiman, and Talmai.

nkjv@Judges:1:11 @ From there they went against the inhabitants of Debir. (The name of Debir was formerly Kirjath Sepher.)

nkjv@Judges:1:14 @ Now it happened, when she came to him, that she urged him to ask her father for a field. And she dismounted from her donkey, and Caleb said to her, "What do you wish?"

nkjv@Judges:1:16 @ Now the children of the Kenite, Moses' father-in-law, went up from the City of Palms with the children of Judah into the Wilderness of Judah, which lies in the South near Arad; and they went and dwelt among the people.

nkjv@Judges:1:17 @ And Judah went with his brother Simeon, and they attacked the Canaanites who inhabited Zephath, and utterly destroyed it. So the name of the city was called Hormah.

nkjv@Judges:1:21 @ But the children of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites who inhabited Jerusalem; so the Jebusites dwell with the children of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.

nkjv@Judges:1:23 @ So the house of Joseph sent men to spy out Bethel. (The name of the city was formerly Luz.)

nkjv@Judges:1:25 @ So he showed them the entrance to the city, and they struck the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man and all his family go.

nkjv@Judges:1:26 @ And the man went to the land of the Hittites, built a city, and called its name Luz, which is its name to this day.

nkjv@Judges:1:27 @ However, Manasseh did not drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shean and its villages, or Taanach and its villages, or the inhabitants of Dor and its villages, or the inhabitants of Ibleam and its villages, or the inhabitants of Megiddo and its villages; for the Canaanites were determined to dwell in that land.

nkjv@Judges:1:28 @ And it came to pass, when Israel was strong, that they put the Canaanites under tribute, but did not completely drive them out.

nkjv@Judges:1:29 @ Nor did Ephraim drive out the Canaanites who dwelt in Gezer; so the Canaanites dwelt in Gezer among them.

nkjv@Judges:1:30 @ Nor did Zebulun drive out the inhabitants of Kitron or the inhabitants of Nahalol; so the Canaanites dwelt among them, and were put under tribute.

nkjv@Judges:1:32 @ So the Asherites dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land; for they did not drive them out.

nkjv@Judges:1:33 @ Nor did Naphtali drive out the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh or the inhabitants of Beth Anath; but they dwelt among the Canaanites, the inhabitants of the land. Nevertheless the inhabitants of Beth Shemesh and Beth Anath were put under tribute to them.

nkjv@Judges:1:34 @ And the Amorites forced the children of Dan into the mountains, for they would not allow them to come down to the valley;

nkjv@Judges:1:35 @ and the Amorites were determined to dwell in Mount Heres, in Aijalon, and in Shaalbim; yet when the strength of the house of Joseph became greater, they were put under tribute.

nkjv@Judges:1:36 @ Now the boundary of the Amorites was from the Ascent of Akrabbim, from Sela, and upward.

nkjv@Judges:2:1 @ Then the Angel of the LORD came up from Gilgal to Bochim, and said: "I led you up from Egypt and brought you to the land of which I swore to your fathers; and I said, "I will never break My covenant with you.

nkjv@Judges:2:19 @ And it came to pass, when the judge was dead, that they reverted and behaved more corruptly than their fathers, by following other gods, to serve them and bow down to them. They did not cease from their own doings nor from their stubborn way.

nkjv@Judges:3:3 @ namely, five lords of the Philistines, all the Canaanites, the Sidonians, and the Hivites who dwelt in Mount Lebanon, from Mount Baal Hermon to the entrance of Hamath.

nkjv@Judges:3:5 @ Thus the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

nkjv@Judges:3:8 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel, and He sold them into the hand of Cushan-Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia; and the children of Israel served Cushan-Rishathaim eight years.

nkjv@Judges:3:10 @ The Spirit of the LORD came upon him, and he judged Israel. He went out to war, and the LORD delivered Cushan-Rishathaim king of Mesopotamia into his hand; and his hand prevailed over Cushan-Rishathaim.

nkjv@Judges:3:13 @ Then he gathered to himself the people of Ammon and Amalek, went and defeated Israel, and took possession of the City of Palms.

nkjv@Judges:3:15 @ But when the children of Israel cried out to the LORD, the LORD raised up a deliverer for them: Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjamite, a left-handed man. By him the children of Israel sent tribute to Eglon king of Moab.

nkjv@Judges:3:20 @ So Ehud came to him (now he was sitting upstairs in his cool private chamber). Then Ehud said, "I have a message from God for you." So he arose from his seat.

nkjv@Judges:3:22 @ Even the hilt went in after the blade, and the fat closed over the blade, for he did not draw the dagger out of his belly; and his entrails came out.

nkjv@Judges:3:24 @ When he had gone out, Eglon's servants came to look, and to their surprise, the doors of the upper room were locked. So they said, "He is probably attending to his needs in the cool chamber."

nkjv@Judges:3:31 @ After him was Shamgar the son of Anath, who killed six hundred men of the Philistines with an ox goad; and he also delivered Israel.

nkjv@Judges:4:5 @ And she would sit under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the mountains of Ephraim. And the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.

nkjv@Judges:4:6 @ Then she sent and called for Barak the son of Abinoam from Kedesh in Naphtali, and said to him, "Has not the LORD God of Israel commanded, "Go and deploy troops at Mount Tabor; take with you ten thousand men of the sons of Naphtali and of the sons of Zebulun;

nkjv@Judges:4:19 @ Then he said to her, "Please give me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty." So she opened a jug of milk, gave him a drink, and covered him.

nkjv@Judges:4:21 @ Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent peg and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly to him and drove the peg into his temple, and it went down into the ground; for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.

nkjv@Judges:4:22 @ And then, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, "Come, I will show you the man whom you seek." And when he went into her tent, there lay Sisera, dead with the peg in his temple.

nkjv@Judges:6:3 @ So it was, whenever Israel had sown, Midianites would come up; also Amalekites and the people of the East would come up against them.

nkjv@Judges:6:4 @ Then they would encamp against them and destroy the produce of the earth as far as Gaza, and leave no sustenance for Israel, neither sheep nor ox nor donkey.

nkjv@Judges:6:5 @ For they would come up with their livestock and their tents, coming in as numerous as locusts; both they and their camels were without number; and they would enter the land to destroy it.

nkjv@Judges:6:7 @ And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried out to the LORD because of the Midianites,

nkjv@Judges:6:10 @ Also I said to you, "I am the LORD your God; do not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell." But you have not obeyed My voice."'

nkjv@Judges:6:11 @ Now the Angel of the LORD came and sat under the terebinth tree which was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, while his son Gideon threshed wheat in the winepress, in order to hide it from the Midianites.

nkjv@Judges:6:15 @ So he said to Him, "O my Lord, how can I save Israel? Indeed my clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house."

nkjv@Judges:6:25 @ Now it came to pass the same night that the LORD said to him, "Take your father's young bull, the second bull of seven years old, and tear down the altar of Baal that your father has, and cut down the wooden image that is beside it;

nkjv@Judges:6:27 @ So Gideon took ten men from among his servants and did as the LORD had said to him. But because he feared his father's household and the men of the city too much to do it by day, he did it by night.

nkjv@Judges:6:33 @ Then all the Midianites and Amalekites, the people of the East, gathered together; and they crossed over and encamped in the Valley of Jezreel.

nkjv@Judges:6:34 @ But the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon; then he blew the trumpet, and the Abiezrites gathered behind him.

nkjv@Judges:6:35 @ And he sent messengers throughout all Manasseh, who also gathered behind him. He also sent messengers to Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali; and they came up to meet them.

nkjv@Judges:7:1 @ Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him rose early and encamped beside the well of Harod, so that the camp of the Midianites was on the north side of them by the hill of Moreh in the valley.

nkjv@Judges:7:4 @ But the LORD said to Gideon, "The people are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there.

nkjv@Judges:7:8 @ So the people took provisions and their trumpets in their hands. And he sent away all the rest of Israel, every man to his tent, and retained those three hundred men. Now the camp of Midian was below him in the valley.

nkjv@Judges:7:9 @ It happened on the same night that the LORD said to him, "Arise, go down against the camp, for I have delivered it into your hand.

nkjv@Judges:7:10 @ But if you are afraid to go down, go down to the camp with Purah your servant,

nkjv@Judges:7:11 @ and you shall hear what they say; and afterward your hands shall be strengthened to go down against the camp." Then he went down with Purah his servant to the outpost of the armed men who were in the camp.

nkjv@Judges:7:12 @ Now the Midianites and Amalekites, all the people of the East, were lying in the valley as numerous as locusts; and their camels were without number, as the sand by the seashore in multitude.

nkjv@Judges:7:13 @ And when Gideon had come, there was a man telling a dream to his companion. He said, "I have had a dream: To my surprise, a loaf of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian; it came to a tent and struck it so that it fell and overturned, and the tent collapsed."

nkjv@Judges:7:14 @ Then his companion answered and said, "This is nothing else but the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel! Into his hand God has delivered Midian and the whole camp."

nkjv@Judges:7:15 @ And so it was, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream and its interpretation, that he worshiped. He returned to the camp of Israel, and said, "Arise, for the LORD has delivered the camp of Midian into your hand."

nkjv@Judges:7:17 @ And he said to them, "Look at me and do likewise; watch, and when I come to the edge of the camp you shall do as I do:

nkjv@Judges:7:18 @ When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then you also blow the trumpets on every side of the whole camp, and say, "The sword of the LORD and of Gideon!"'

nkjv@Judges:7:19 @ So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outpost of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just as they had posted the watch; and they blew the trumpets and broke the pitchers that were in their hands.

nkjv@Judges:7:21 @ And every man stood in his place all around the camp; and the whole army ran and cried out and fled.

nkjv@Judges:7:22 @ When the three hundred blew the trumpets, the LORD set every man's sword against his companion throughout the whole camp; and the army fled to Beth Acacia, toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by Tabbath.

nkjv@Judges:8:4 @ When Gideon came to the Jordan, he and the three hundred men who were with him crossed over, exhausted but still in pursuit.

nkjv@Judges:8:5 @ Then he said to the men of Succoth, "Please give loaves of bread to the people who follow me, for they are exhausted, and I am pursuing Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian."

nkjv@Judges:8:8 @ Then he went up from there to Penuel and spoke to them in the same way. And the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered.

nkjv@Judges:8:11 @ Then Gideon went up by the road of those who dwell in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah; and he attacked the army while the camp felt secure.

nkjv@Judges:8:15 @ Then he came to the men of Succoth and said, "Here are Zebah and Zalmunna, about whom you ridiculed me, saying, "Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we should give bread to your weary men?"'

nkjv@Judges:8:21 @ So Zebah and Zalmunna said, "Rise yourself, and kill us; for as a man is, so is his strength." So Gideon arose and killed Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescent ornaments that were on their camels' necks.

nkjv@Judges:8:26 @ Now the weight of the gold earrings that he requested was one thousand seven hundred shekels of gold, besides the crescent ornaments, pendants, and purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and besides the chains that were around their camels' necks.

nkjv@Judges:8:27 @ Then Gideon made it into an ephod and set it up in his city, Ophrah. And all Israel played the harlot with it there. It became a snare to Gideon and to his house.

nkjv@Judges:8:31 @ And his concubine who was in Shechem also bore him a son, whose name he called Abimelech.

nkjv@Judges:9:1 @ Then Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem, to his mother's brothers, and spoke with them and with all the family of the house of his mother's father, saying,

nkjv@Judges:9:2 @ "Please speak in the hearing of all the men of Shechem: "Which is better for you, that all seventy of the sons of Jerubbaal reign over you, or that one reign over you?' Remember that I am your own flesh and bone."

nkjv@Judges:9:5 @ Then he went to his father's house at Ophrah and killed his brothers, the seventy sons of Jerubbaal, on one stone. But Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left, because he hid himself.

nkjv@Judges:9:7 @ Now when they told Jotham, he went and stood on top of Mount Gerizim, and lifted his voice and cried out. And he said to them: "Listen to me, you men of Shechem, That God may listen to you!

nkjv@Judges:9:14 @ "Then all the trees said to the bramble, "You come and reign over us!'

nkjv@Judges:9:15 @ And the bramble said to the trees, "If in truth you anoint me as king over you, Then come and take shelter in my shade; But if not, let fire come out of the bramble And devour the cedars of Lebanon!'

nkjv@Judges:9:21 @ And Jotham ran away and fled; and he went to Beer and dwelt there, for fear of Abimelech his brother.

nkjv@Judges:9:25 @ And the men of Shechem set men in ambush against him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all who passed by them along that way; and it was told Abimelech.

nkjv@Judges:9:26 @ Now Gaal the son of Ebed came with his brothers and went over to Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their confidence in him.

nkjv@Judges:9:28 @ Then Gaal the son of Ebed said, "Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerubbaal, and is not Zebul his officer? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem; but why should we serve him?

nkjv@Judges:9:42 @ And it came about on the next day that the people went out into the field, and they told Abimelech.

nkjv@Judges:9:50 @ Then Abimelech went to Thebez, and he encamped against Thebez and took it.

nkjv@Judges:9:52 @ So Abimelech came as far as the tower and fought against it; and he drew near the door of the tower to burn it with fire.

nkjv@Judges:9:57 @ And all the evil of the men of Shechem God returned on their own heads, and on them came the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal.

nkjv@Judges:10:5 @ And Jair died and was buried in Camon.

nkjv@Judges:10:6 @ Then the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served the Baals and the Ashtoreths, the gods of Syria, the gods of Sidon, the gods of Moab, the gods of the people of Ammon, and the gods of the Philistines; and they forsook the LORD and did not serve Him.

nkjv@Judges:10:7 @ So the anger of the LORD was hot against Israel; and He sold them into the hands of the Philistines and into the hands of the people of Ammon.

nkjv@Judges:10:8 @ From that year they harassed and oppressed the children of Israel for eighteen years--all the children of Israel who were on the other side of the Jordan in the land of the Amorites, in Gilead.

nkjv@Judges:10:9 @ Moreover the people of Ammon crossed over the Jordan to fight against Judah also, against Benjamin, and against the house of Ephraim, so that Israel was severely distressed.

nkjv@Judges:13:10 @ Then the woman ran in haste and told her husband, and said to him, "Look, the Man who came to me the other day has just now appeared to me!"

nkjv@Judges:13:11 @ So Manoah arose and followed his wife. When he came to the Man, he said to Him, "Are You the Man who spoke to this woman?" And He said, "I am."

nkjv@Judges:13:17 @ Then Manoah said to the Angel of the LORD, "What is Your name, that when Your words come to pass we may honor You?"

nkjv@Judges:13:18 @ And the Angel of the LORD said to him, "Why do you ask My name, seeing it is wonderful?"

nkjv@Judges:13:20 @ it happened as the flame went up toward heaven from the altar--the Angel of the LORD ascended in the flame of the altar! When Manoah and his wife saw this, they fell on their faces to the ground.

nkjv@Judges:13:24 @ So the woman bore a son and called his name Samson; and the child grew, and the LORD blessed him.

nkjv@Judges:14:1 @ Now Samson went down to Timnah, and saw a woman in Timnah of the daughters of the Philistines.

nkjv@Judges:14:3 @ Then his father and mother said to him, "Is there no woman among the daughters of your brethren, or among all my people, that you must go and get a wife from the uncircumcised Philistines?" And Samson said to his father, "Get her for me, for she pleases me well."

nkjv@Judges:14:5 @ So Samson went down to Timnah with his father and mother, and came to the vineyards of Timnah. Now to his surprise, a young lion came roaring against him.

nkjv@Judges:14:6 @ And the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him, and he tore the lion apart as one would have torn apart a young goat, though he had nothing in his hand. But he did not tell his father or his mother what he had done.

nkjv@Judges:14:7 @ Then he went down and talked with the woman; and she pleased Samson well.

nkjv@Judges:14:9 @ He took some of it in his hands and went along, eating. When he came to his father and mother, he gave some to them, and they also ate. But he did not tell them that he had taken the honey out of the carcass of the lion.

nkjv@Judges:14:10 @ So his father went down to the woman. And Samson gave a feast there, for young men used to do so.

nkjv@Judges:14:12 @ Then Samson said to them, "Let me pose a riddle to you. If you can correctly solve and explain it to me within the seven days of the feast, then I will give you thirty linen garments and thirty changes of clothing.

nkjv@Judges:14:14 @ So he said to them: "Out of the eater came something to eat, And out of the strong came something sweet." Now for three days they could not explain the riddle.

nkjv@Judges:14:15 @ But it came to pass on the seventh day that they said to Samson's wife, "Entice your husband, that he may explain the riddle to us, or else we will burn you and your father's house with fire. Have you invited us in order to take what is ours? Is that not so?"

nkjv@Judges:14:16 @ Then Samson's wife wept on him, and said, "You only hate me! You do not love me! You have posed a riddle to the sons of my people, but you have not explained it to me." And he said to her, "Look, I have not explained it to my father or my mother; so should I explain it to you?"

nkjv@Judges:14:19 @ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon him mightily, and he went down to Ashkelon and killed thirty of their men, took their apparel, and gave the changes of clothing to those who had explained the riddle. So his anger was aroused, and he went back up to his father's house.

nkjv@Judges:14:20 @ And Samson's wife was given to his companion, who had been his best man.

nkjv@Judges:15:1 @ After a while, in the time of wheat harvest, it happened that Samson visited his wife with a young goat. And he said, "Let me go in to my wife, into her room." But her father would not permit him to go in.

nkjv@Judges:15:3 @ And Samson said to them, "This time I shall be blameless regarding the Philistines if I harm them!"

nkjv@Judges:15:4 @ Then Samson went and caught three hundred foxes; and he took torches, turned the foxes tail to tail, and put a torch between each pair of tails.

nkjv@Judges:15:6 @ Then the Philistines said, "Who has done this?" And they answered, "Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he has taken his wife and given her to his companion." So the Philistines came up and burned her and her father with fire.

nkjv@Judges:15:7 @ Samson said to them, "Since you would do a thing like this, I will surely take revenge on you, and after that I will cease."

nkjv@Judges:15:8 @ So he attacked them hip and thigh with a great slaughter; then he went down and dwelt in the cleft of the rock of Etam.

nkjv@Judges:15:9 @ Now the Philistines went up, encamped in Judah, and deployed themselves against Lehi.

nkjv@Judges:15:10 @ And the men of Judah said, "Why have you come up against us?" So they answered, "We have come up to arrest Samson, to do to him as he has done to us."

nkjv@Judges:15:11 @ Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam, and said to Samson, "Do you not know that the Philistines rule over us? What is this you have done to us?" And he said to them, "As they did to me, so I have done to them."

nkjv@Judges:15:12 @ But they said to him, "We have come down to arrest you, that we may deliver you into the hand of the Philistines." Then Samson said to them, "Swear to me that you will not kill me yourselves."

nkjv@Judges:15:14 @ When he came to Lehi, the Philistines came shouting against him. Then the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon him; and the ropes that were on his arms became like flax that is burned with fire, and his bonds broke loose from his hands.

nkjv@Judges:15:16 @ Then Samson said: "With the jawbone of a donkey, Heaps upon heaps, With the jawbone of a donkey I have slain a thousand men!"

nkjv@Judges:15:17 @ And so it was, when he had finished speaking, that he threw the jawbone from his hand, and called that place Ramath Lehi.

nkjv@Judges:15:18 @ Then he became very thirsty; so he cried out to the LORD and said, "You have given this great deliverance by the hand of Your servant; and now shall I die of thirst and fall into the hand of the uncircumcised?"

nkjv@Judges:15:19 @ So God split the hollow place that is in Lehi, and water came out, and he drank; and his spirit returned, and he revived. Therefore he called its name En Hakkore, which is in Lehi to this day.

nkjv@Judges:16:1 @ Now Samson went to Gaza and saw a harlot there, and went in to her.

nkjv@Judges:16:2 @ When the Gazites were told, "Samson has come here!" they surrounded the place and lay in wait for him all night at the gate of the city. They were quiet all night, saying, "In the morning, when it is daylight, we will kill him."

nkjv@Judges:16:3 @ And Samson lay low till midnight; then he arose at midnight, took hold of the doors of the gate of the city and the two gateposts, pulled them up, bar and all, put them on his shoulders, and carried them to the top of the hill that faces Hebron.

nkjv@Judges:16:4 @ Afterward it happened that he loved a woman in the Valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.

nkjv@Judges:16:5 @ And the lords of the Philistines came up to her and said to her, "Entice him, and find out where his great strength lies, and by what means we may overpower him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and every one of us will give you eleven hundred pieces of silver."

nkjv@Judges:16:6 @ So Delilah said to Samson, "Please tell me where your great strength lies, and with what you may be bound to afflict you."

nkjv@Judges:16:7 @ And Samson said to her, "If they bind me with seven fresh bowstrings, not yet dried, then I shall become weak, and be like any other man."

nkjv@Judges:16:9 @ Now men were lying in wait, staying with her in the room. And she said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" But he broke the bowstrings as a strand of yarn breaks when it touches fire. So the secret of his strength was not known.

nkjv@Judges:16:10 @ Then Delilah said to Samson, "Look, you have mocked me and told me lies. Now, please tell me what you may be bound with."

nkjv@Judges:16:12 @ Therefore Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them, and said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" And men were lying in wait, staying in the room. But he broke them off his arms like a thread.

nkjv@Judges:16:13 @ Delilah said to Samson, "Until now you have mocked me and told me lies. Tell me what you may be bound with." And he said to her, "If you weave the seven locks of my head into the web of the loom"--

nkjv@Judges:16:14 @ So she wove it tightly with the batten of the loom, and said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" But he awoke from his sleep, and pulled out the batten and the web from the loom.

nkjv@Judges:16:16 @ And it came to pass, when she pestered him daily with her words and pressed him, so that his soul was vexed to death,

nkjv@Judges:16:17 @ that he told her all his heart, and said to her, "No razor has ever come upon my head, for I have been a Nazirite to God from my mother's womb. If I am shaven, then my strength will leave me, and I shall become weak, and be like any other man."

nkjv@Judges:16:18 @ When Delilah saw that he had told her all his heart, she sent and called for the lords of the Philistines, saying, "Come up once more, for he has told me all his heart." So the lords of the Philistines came up to her and brought the money in their hand.

nkjv@Judges:16:20 @ And she said, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" So he awoke from his sleep, and said, "I will go out as before, at other times, and shake myself free!" But he did not know that the LORD had departed from him.

nkjv@Judges:16:21 @ Then the Philistines took him and put out his eyes, and brought him down to Gaza. They bound him with bronze fetters, and he became a grinder in the prison.

nkjv@Judges:16:23 @ Now the lords of the Philistines gathered together to offer a great sacrifice to Dagon their god, and to rejoice. And they said: "Our god has delivered into our hands Samson our enemy!"

nkjv@Judges:16:25 @ So it happened, when their hearts were merry, that they said, "Call for Samson, that he may perform for us." So they called for Samson from the prison, and he performed for them. And they stationed him between the pillars.

nkjv@Judges:16:26 @ Then Samson said to the lad who held him by the hand, "Let me feel the pillars which support the temple, so that I can lean on them."

nkjv@Judges:16:27 @ Now the temple was full of men and women. All the lords of the Philistines were there--about three thousand men and women on the roof watching while Samson performed.

nkjv@Judges:16:28 @ Then Samson called to the LORD, saying, "O Lord GOD, remember me, I pray! Strengthen me, I pray, just this once, O God, that I may with one blow take vengeance on the Philistines for my two eyes!"

nkjv@Judges:16:29 @ And Samson took hold of the two middle pillars which supported the temple, and he braced himself against them, one on his right and the other on his left.

nkjv@Judges:16:30 @ Then Samson said, "Let me die with the Philistines!" And he pushed with all his might, and the temple fell on the lords and all the people who were in it. So the dead that he killed at his death were more than he had killed in his life.

nkjv@Judges:16:31 @ And his brothers and all his father's household came down and took him, and brought him up and buried him between Zorah and Eshtaol in the tomb of his father Manoah. He had judged Israel twenty years.

nkjv@Judges:17:1 @ Now there was a man from the mountains of Ephraim, whose name was Micah.

nkjv@Judges:17:5 @ The man Micah had a shrine, and made an ephod and household idols; and he consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.

nkjv@Judges:17:7 @ Now there was a young man from Bethlehem in Judah, of the family of Judah; he was a Levite, and was staying there.

nkjv@Judges:17:8 @ The man departed from the city of Bethlehem in Judah to stay wherever he could find a place. Then he came to the mountains of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, as he journeyed.

nkjv@Judges:17:9 @ And Micah said to him, "Where do you come from?" So he said to him, "I am a Levite from Bethlehem in Judah, and I am on my way to find a place to stay."

nkjv@Judges:17:11 @ Then the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man became like one of his sons to him.

nkjv@Judges:17:12 @ So Micah consecrated the Levite, and the young man became his priest, and lived in the house of Micah.

nkjv@Judges:18:1 @ In those days there was no king in Israel. And in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking an inheritance for itself to dwell in; for until that day their inheritance among the tribes of Israel had not fallen to them.

nkjv@Judges:18:2 @ So the children of Dan sent five men of their family from their territory, men of valor from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and search it. They said to them, "Go, search the land." So they went to the mountains of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there.

nkjv@Judges:18:7 @ So the five men departed and went to Laish. They saw the people who were there, how they dwelt safely, in the manner of the Sidonians, quiet and secure. There were no rulers in the land who might put them to shame for anything. They were far from the Sidonians, and they had no ties with anyone.

nkjv@Judges:18:8 @ Then the spies came back to their brethren at Zorah and Eshtaol, and their brethren said to them, "What is your report?"

nkjv@Judges:18:11 @ And six hundred men of the family of the Danites went from there, from Zorah and Eshtaol, armed with weapons of war.

nkjv@Judges:18:12 @ Then they went up and encamped in Kirjath Jearim in Judah. (Therefore they call that place Mahaneh Dan to this day. There it is, west of Kirjath Jearim.)

nkjv@Judges:18:13 @ And they passed from there to the mountains of Ephraim, and came to the house of Micah.

nkjv@Judges:18:15 @ So they turned aside there, and came to the house of the young Levite man--to the house of Micah--and greeted him.

nkjv@Judges:18:19 @ And they said to him, "Be quiet, put your hand over your mouth, and come with us; be a father and a priest to us. Is it better for you to be a priest to the household of one man, or that you be a priest to a tribe and a family in Israel?"

nkjv@Judges:18:20 @ So the priest's heart was glad; and he took the ephod, the household idols, and the carved image, and took his place among the people.

nkjv@Judges:18:25 @ And the children of Dan said to him, "Do not let your voice be heard among us, lest angry men fall upon you, and you lose your life, with the lives of your household!"

nkjv@Judges:18:29 @ And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who was born to Israel. However, the name of the city formerly was Laish.

nkjv@Judges:19:1 @ And it came to pass in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite staying in the remote mountains of Ephraim. He took for himself a concubine from Bethlehem in Judah.

nkjv@Judges:19:5 @ Then it came to pass on the fourth day that they arose early in the morning, and he stood to depart; but the young woman's father said to his son-in-law, "Refresh your heart with a morsel of bread, and afterward go your way."

nkjv@Judges:19:10 @ However, the man was not willing to spend that night; so he rose and departed, and came opposite Jebus (that is, Jerusalem). With him were the two saddled donkeys; his concubine was also with him.

nkjv@Judges:19:13 @ So he said to his servant, "Come, let us draw near to one of these places, and spend the night in Gibeah or in Ramah."

nkjv@Judges:19:14 @ And they passed by and went their way; and the sun went down on them near Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin.

nkjv@Judges:19:16 @ Just then an old man came in from his work in the field at evening, who also was from the mountains of Ephraim; he was staying in Gibeah, whereas the men of the place were Benjamites.

nkjv@Judges:19:18 @ So he said to him, "We are passing from Bethlehem in Judah toward the remote mountains of Ephraim; I am from there. I went to Bethlehem in Judah; now I am going to the house of the LORD. But there is no one who will take me into his house,

nkjv@Judges:19:22 @ As they were enjoying themselves, suddenly certain men of the city, perverted men, surrounded the house and beat on the door. They spoke to the master of the house, the old man, saying, "Bring out the man who came to your house, that we may know him carnally!"

nkjv@Judges:19:30 @ And so it was that all who saw it said, "No such deed has been done or seen from the day that the children of Israel came up from the land of Egypt until this day. Consider it, confer, and speak up!"

nkjv@Judges:20:1 @ So all the children of Israel came out, from Dan to Beersheba, as well as from the land of Gilead, and the congregation gathered together as one man before the LORD at Mizpah.

nkjv@Judges:20:3 @ (Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) Then the children of Israel said, "Tell us, how did this wicked deed happen?"

nkjv@Judges:20:4 @ So the Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered and said, "My concubine and I went into Gibeah, which belongs to Benjamin, to spend the night.

nkjv@Judges:20:10 @ We will take ten men out of every hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, a hundred out of every thousand, and a thousand out of every ten thousand, to make provisions for the people, that when they come to Gibeah in Benjamin, they may repay all the vileness that they have done in Israel."

nkjv@Judges:20:12 @ Then the tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, "What is this wickedness that has occurred among you?

nkjv@Judges:20:13 @ Now therefore, deliver up the men, the perverted men who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death and remove the evil from Israel!" But the children of Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brethren, the children of Israel.

nkjv@Judges:20:14 @ Instead, the children of Benjamin gathered together from their cities to Gibeah, to go to battle against the children of Israel.

nkjv@Judges:20:15 @ And from their cities at that time the children of Benjamin numbered twenty-six thousand men who drew the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah, who numbered seven hundred select men.

nkjv@Judges:20:16 @ Among all this people were seven hundred select men who were left-handed; every one could sling a stone at a hair's breadth and not miss.

nkjv@Judges:20:17 @ Now besides Benjamin, the men of Israel numbered four hundred thousand men who drew the sword; all of these were men of war.

nkjv@Judges:20:18 @ Then the children of Israel arose and went up to the house of God to inquire of God. They said, "Which of us shall go up first to battle against the children of Benjamin?" The LORD said, "Judah first!"

nkjv@Judges:20:20 @ And the men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin, and the men of Israel put themselves in battle array to fight against them at Gibeah.

nkjv@Judges:20:21 @ Then the children of Benjamin came out of Gibeah, and on that day cut down to the ground twenty-two thousand men of the Israelites.

nkjv@Judges:20:23 @ Then the children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until evening, and asked counsel of the LORD, saying, "Shall I again draw near for battle against the children of my brother Benjamin?" And the LORD said, "Go up against him."

nkjv@Judges:20:32 @ And the children of Benjamin said, "They are defeated before us, as at first." But the children of Israel said, "Let us flee and draw them away from the city to the highways."

nkjv@Judges:20:33 @ So all the men of Israel rose from their place and put themselves in battle array at Baal Tamar. Then Israel's men in ambush burst forth from their position in the plain of Geba.

nkjv@Judges:20:34 @ And ten thousand select men from all Israel came against Gibeah, and the battle was fierce. But the Benjamites did not know that disaster was upon them.

nkjv@Judges:20:37 @ And the men in ambush quickly rushed upon Gibeah; the men in ambush spread out and struck the whole city with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@Judges:20:38 @ Now the appointed signal between the men of Israel and the men in ambush was that they would make a great cloud of smoke rise up from the city,

nkjv@Judges:20:39 @ whereupon the men of Israel would turn in battle. Now Benjamin had begun to strike and kill about thirty of the men of Israel. For they said, "Surely they are defeated before us, as in the first battle."

nkjv@Judges:20:40 @ But when the cloud began to rise from the city in a column of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them, and there was the whole city going up in smoke to heaven.

nkjv@Judges:20:42 @ Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel in the direction of the wilderness; but the battle overtook them, and whoever came out of the cities they destroyed in their midst.

nkjv@Judges:20:43 @ They surrounded the Benjamites, chased them, and easily trampled them down as far as the front of Gibeah toward the east.

nkjv@Judges:20:44 @ And eighteen thousand men of Benjamin fell; all these were men of valor.

nkjv@Judges:20:48 @ And the men of Israel turned back against the children of Benjamin, and struck them down with the edge of the sword--from every city, men and beasts, all who were found. They also set fire to all the cities they came to.

nkjv@Judges:21:1 @ Now the men of Israel had sworn an oath at Mizpah, saying, "None of us shall give his daughter to Benjamin as a wife."

nkjv@Judges:21:2 @ Then the people came to the house of God, and remained there before God till evening. They lifted up their voices and wept bitterly,

nkjv@Judges:21:5 @ The children of Israel said, "Who is there among all the tribes of Israel who did not come up with the assembly to the LORD?" For they had made a great oath concerning anyone who had not come up to the LORD at Mizpah, saying, "He shall surely be put to death."

nkjv@Judges:21:15 @ And the people grieved for Benjamin, because the LORD had made a void in the tribes of Israel.

nkjv@Judges:21:16 @ Then the elders of the congregation said, "What shall we do for wives for those who remain, since the women of Benjamin have been destroyed?"

nkjv@Judges:21:17 @ And they said, "There must be an inheritance for the survivors of Benjamin, that a tribe may not be destroyed from Israel.

nkjv@Judges:21:18 @ However, we cannot give them wives from our daughters, for the children of Israel have sworn an oath, saying, "Cursed be the one who gives a wife to Benjamin."'

nkjv@Ruth:2:7 @ And she said, "Please let me glean and gather after the reapers among the sheaves.' So she came and has continued from morning until now, though she rested a little in the house."

nkjv@Ruth:2:10 @ So she fell on her face, bowed down to the ground, and said to him, "Why have I found favor in your eyes, that you should take notice of me, since I am a foreigner?"

nkjv@Ruth:2:13 @ Then she said, "Let me find favor in your sight, my lord; for you have comforted me, and have spoken kindly to your maidservant, though I am not like one of your maidservants."

nkjv@Ruth:2:15 @ And when she rose up to glean, Boaz commanded his young men, saying, "Let her glean even among the sheaves, and do not reproach her.

nkjv@Ruth:2:19 @ And her mother-in-law said to her, "Where have you gleaned today? And where did you work? Blessed be the one who took notice of you." So she told her mother-in-law with whom she had worked, and said, "The man's name with whom I worked today is Boaz."

nkjv@Ruth:3:7 @ And after Boaz had eaten and drunk, and his heart was cheerful, he went to lie down at the end of the heap of grain; and she came softly, uncovered his feet, and lay down.

nkjv@Ruth:3:9 @ And he said, "Who are you?" So she answered, "I am Ruth, your maidservant. Take your maidservant under your wing, for you are a close relative."

nkjv@Ruth:3:12 @ Now it is true that I am a close relative; however, there is a relative closer than I.

nkjv@Ruth:3:14 @ So she lay at his feet until morning, and she arose before one could recognize another. Then he said, "Do not let it be known that the woman came to the threshing floor."

nkjv@Ruth:3:16 @ When she came to her mother-in-law, she said, "Is that you, my daughter?" Then she told her all that the man had done for her.

nkjv@Ruth:4:1 @ Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there; and behold, the close relative of whom Boaz had spoken came by. So Boaz said, "Come aside, friend, sit down here." So he came aside and sat down.

nkjv@Ruth:4:4 @ And I thought to inform you, saying, "Buy it back in the presence of the inhabitants and the elders of my people. If you will redeem it, redeem it; but if you will not redeem it, then tell me, that I may know; for there is no one but you to redeem it, and I am next after you."' And he said, "I will redeem it."

nkjv@Ruth:4:5 @ Then Boaz said, "On the day you buy the field from the hand of Naomi, you must also buy it from Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to perpetuate the name of the dead through his inheritance."

nkjv@Ruth:4:10 @ Moreover, Ruth the Moabitess, the widow of Mahlon, I have acquired as my wife, to perpetuate the name of the dead through his inheritance, that the name of the dead may not be cut off from among his brethren and from his position at the gate. You are witnesses this day."

nkjv@Ruth:4:11 @ And all the people who were at the gate, and the elders, said, "We are witnesses. The LORD make the woman who is coming to your house like Rachel and Leah, the two who built the house of Israel; and may you prosper in Ephrathah and be famous in Bethlehem.

nkjv@Ruth:4:12 @ May your house be like the house of Perez, whom Tamar bore to Judah, because of the offspring which the LORD will give you from this young woman."

nkjv@Ruth:4:13 @ So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife; and when he went in to her, the LORD gave her conception, and she bore a son.

nkjv@Ruth:4:14 @ Then the women said to Naomi, "Blessed be the LORD, who has not left you this day without a close relative; and may his name be famous in Israel!

nkjv@Ruth:4:16 @ Then Naomi took the child and laid him on her bosom, and became a nurse to him.

nkjv@Ruth:4:17 @ Also the neighbor women gave him a name, saying, "There is a son born to Naomi." And they called his name Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

nkjv@Ruth:4:19 @ Hezron begot Ram, and Ram begot Amminadab;

nkjv@Ruth:4:20 @ Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salmon;

nkjv@1Samuel:1:1 @ Now there was a certain man of Ramathaim Zophim, of the mountains of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:2 @ And he had two wives: the name of one was Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah. Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:3 @ This man went up from his city yearly to worship and sacrifice to the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. Also the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:4 @ And whenever the time came for Elkanah to make an offering, he would give portions to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and daughters.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:5 @ But to Hannah he would give a double portion, for he loved Hannah, although the LORD had closed her womb.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:6 @ And her rival also provoked her severely, to make her miserable, because the LORD had closed her womb.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:7 @ So it was, year by year, when she went up to the house of the LORD, that she provoked her; therefore she wept and did not eat.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:8 @ Then Elkanah her husband said to her, "Hannah, why do you weep? Why do you not eat? And why is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten sons?"

nkjv@1Samuel:1:9 @ So Hannah arose after they had finished eating and drinking in Shiloh. Now Eli the priest was sitting on the seat by the doorpost of the tabernacle of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:10 @ And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to the LORD and wept in anguish.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:11 @ Then she made a vow and said, "O LORD of hosts, if You will indeed look on the affliction of Your maidservant and remember me, and not forget Your maidservant, but will give Your maidservant a male child, then I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head."

nkjv@1Samuel:1:12 @ And it happened, as she continued praying before the LORD, that Eli watched her mouth.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:13 @ Now Hannah spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard. Therefore Eli thought she was drunk.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:14 @ So Eli said to her, "How long will you be drunk? Put your wine away from you!"

nkjv@1Samuel:1:15 @ But Hannah answered and said, "No, my lord, I am a woman of sorrowful spirit. I have drunk neither wine nor intoxicating drink, but have poured out my soul before the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:16 @ Do not consider your maidservant a wicked woman, for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief I have spoken until now."

nkjv@1Samuel:1:17 @ Then Eli answered and said, "Go in peace, and the God of Israel grant your petition which you have asked of Him."

nkjv@1Samuel:1:18 @ And she said, "Let your maidservant find favor in your sight." So the woman went her way and ate, and her face was no longer sad.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:19 @ Then they rose early in the morning and worshiped before the LORD, and returned and came to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:20 @ So it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, "Because I have asked for him from the LORD."

nkjv@1Samuel:1:21 @ Now the man Elkanah and all his house went up to offer to the LORD the yearly sacrifice and his vow.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:22 @ But Hannah did not go up, for she said to her husband, "Not until the child is weaned; then I will take him, that he may appear before the LORD and remain there forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:1:23 @ So Elkanah her husband said to her, "Do what seems best to you; wait until you have weaned him. Only let the LORD establish His word." Then the woman stayed and nursed her son until she had weaned him.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:24 @ Now when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bulls, one ephah of flour, and a skin of wine, and brought him to the house of the LORD in Shiloh. And the child was young.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:25 @ Then they slaughtered a bull, and brought the child to Eli.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:26 @ And she said, "O my lord! As your soul lives, my lord, I am the woman who stood by you here, praying to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:27 @ For this child I prayed, and the LORD has granted me my petition which I asked of Him.

nkjv@1Samuel:1:28 @ Therefore I also have lent him to the LORD; as long as he lives he shall be lent to the LORD." So they worshiped the LORD there.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:1 @ And Hannah prayed and said: "My heart rejoices in the LORD; My horn is exalted in the LORD. I smile at my enemies, Because I rejoice in Your salvation.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:2 @ "No one is holy like the LORD, For there is none besides You, Nor is there any rock like our God.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:3 @ "Talk no more so very proudly; Let no arrogance come from your mouth, For the LORD is the God of knowledge; And by Him actions are weighed.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:4 @ "The bows of the mighty men are broken, And those who stumbled are girded with strength.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:5 @ Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread, And the hungry have ceased to hunger. Even the barren has borne seven, And she who has many children has become feeble.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:6 @ "The LORD kills and makes alive; He brings down to the grave and brings up.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:7 @ The LORD makes poor and makes rich; He brings low and lifts up.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:8 @ He raises the poor from the dust And lifts the beggar from the ash heap, To set them among princes And make them inherit the throne of glory. "For the pillars of the earth are the LORD's, And He has set the world upon them.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:9 @ He will guard the feet of His saints, But the wicked shall be silent in darkness. "For by strength no man shall prevail.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:10 @ The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken in pieces; From heaven He will thunder against them. The LORD will judge the ends of the earth. "He will give strength to His king, And exalt the horn of His anointed."

nkjv@1Samuel:2:11 @ Then Elkanah went to his house at Ramah. But the child ministered to the LORD before Eli the priest.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:12 @ Now the sons of Eli were corrupt; they did not know the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:13 @ And the priests' custom with the people was that when any man offered a sacrifice, the priest's servant would come with a three-pronged fleshhook in his hand while the meat was boiling.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:14 @ Then he would thrust it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; and the priest would take for himself all that the fleshhook brought up. So they did in Shiloh to all the Israelites who came there.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:15 @ Also, before they burned the fat, the priest's servant would come and say to the man who sacrificed, "Give meat for roasting to the priest, for he will not take boiled meat from you, but raw."

nkjv@1Samuel:2:16 @ And if the man said to him, "They should really burn the fat first; then you may take as much as your heart desires," he would then answer him, "No, but you must give it now; and if not, I will take it by force."

nkjv@1Samuel:2:17 @ Therefore the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD, for men abhorred the offering of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:18 @ But Samuel ministered before the LORD, even as a child, wearing a linen ephod.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:19 @ Moreover his mother used to make him a little robe, and bring it to him year by year when she came up with her husband to offer the yearly sacrifice.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:20 @ And Eli would bless Elkanah and his wife, and say, "The LORD give you descendants from this woman for the loan that was given to the LORD." Then they would go to their own home.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:21 @ And the LORD visited Hannah, so that she conceived and bore three sons and two daughters. Meanwhile the child Samuel grew before the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:22 @ Now Eli was very old; and he heard everything his sons did to all Israel, and how they lay with the women who assembled at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:23 @ So he said to them, "Why do you do such things? For I hear of your evil dealings from all the people.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:24 @ No, my sons! For it is not a good report that I hear. You make the LORD's people transgress.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:25 @ If one man sins against another, God will judge him. But if a man sins against the LORD, who will intercede for him?" Nevertheless they did not heed the voice of their father, because the LORD desired to kill them.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:26 @ And the child Samuel grew in stature, and in favor both with the LORD and men.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:27 @ Then a man of God came to Eli and said to him, "Thus says the LORD: "Did I not clearly reveal Myself to the house of your father when they were in Egypt in Pharaoh's house?

nkjv@1Samuel:2:28 @ Did I not choose him out of all the tribes of Israel to be My priest, to offer upon My altar, to burn incense, and to wear an ephod before Me? And did I not give to the house of your father all the offerings of the children of Israel made by fire?

nkjv@1Samuel:2:29 @ Why do you kick at My sacrifice and My offering which I have commanded in My dwelling place, and honor your sons more than Me, to make yourselves fat with the best of all the offerings of Israel My people?'

nkjv@1Samuel:2:30 @ Therefore the LORD God of Israel says: "I said indeed that your house and the house of your father would walk before Me forever.' But now the LORD says: "Far be it from Me; for those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:31 @ Behold, the days are coming that I will cut off your arm and the arm of your father's house, so that there will not be an old man in your house.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:32 @ And you will see an enemy in My dwelling place, despite all the good which God does for Israel. And there shall not be an old man in your house forever.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:33 @ But any of your men whom I do not cut off from My altar shall consume your eyes and grieve your heart. And all the descendants of your house shall die in the flower of their age.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:34 @ Now this shall be a sign to you that will come upon your two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall die, both of them.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:35 @ Then I will raise up for Myself a faithful priest who shall do according to what is in My heart and in My mind. I will build him a sure house, and he shall walk before My anointed forever.

nkjv@1Samuel:2:36 @ And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left in your house will come and bow down to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread, and say, "Please, put me in one of the priestly positions, that I may eat a piece of bread.""'

nkjv@1Samuel:3:1 @ Now the boy Samuel ministered to the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was rare in those days; there was no widespread revelation.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:2 @ And it came to pass at that time, while Eli was lying down in his place, and when his eyes had begun to grow so dim that he could not see,

nkjv@1Samuel:3:3 @ and before the lamp of God went out in the tabernacle of the LORD where the ark of God was, and while Samuel was lying down,

nkjv@1Samuel:3:4 @ that the LORD called Samuel. And he answered, "Here I am!"

nkjv@1Samuel:3:5 @ So he ran to Eli and said, "Here I am, for you called me." And he said, "I did not call; lie down again." And he went and lay down.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:6 @ Then the LORD called yet again, "Samuel!" So Samuel arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you called me." He answered, "I did not call, my son; lie down again."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:7 @ (Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, nor was the word of the LORD yet revealed to him.)

nkjv@1Samuel:3:8 @ And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. So he arose and went to Eli, and said, "Here I am, for you did call me." Then Eli perceived that the LORD had called the boy.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:9 @ Therefore Eli said to Samuel, "Go, lie down; and it shall be, if He calls you, that you must say, "Speak, LORD, for Your servant hears."' So Samuel went and lay down in his place.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:10 @ Now the LORD came and stood and called as at other times, "Samuel! Samuel!" And Samuel answered, "Speak, for Your servant hears."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:11 @ Then the LORD said to Samuel: "Behold, I will do something in Israel at which both ears of everyone who hears it will tingle.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:12 @ In that day I will perform against Eli all that I have spoken concerning his house, from beginning to end.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:13 @ For I have told him that I will judge his house forever for the iniquity which he knows, because his sons made themselves vile, and he did not restrain them.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:14 @ And therefore I have sworn to the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be atoned for by sacrifice or offering forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:15 @ So Samuel lay down until morning, and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel was afraid to tell Eli the vision.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:16 @ Then Eli called Samuel and said, "Samuel, my son!" He answered, "Here I am."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:17 @ And he said, "What is the word that the LORD spoke to you? Please do not hide it from me. God do so to you, and more also, if you hide anything from me of all the things that He said to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:18 @ Then Samuel told him everything, and hid nothing from him. And he said, "It is the LORD. Let Him do what seems good to Him."

nkjv@1Samuel:3:19 @ So Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him and let none of his words fall to the ground.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:20 @ And all Israel from Dan to Beersheba knew that Samuel had been established as a prophet of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:3:21 @ Then the LORD appeared again in Shiloh. For the LORD revealed Himself to Samuel in Shiloh by the word of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:1 @ And the word of Samuel came to all Israel. Now Israel went out to battle against the Philistines, and encamped beside Ebenezer; and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:2 @ Then the Philistines put themselves in battle array against Israel. And when they joined battle, Israel was defeated by the Philistines, who killed about four thousand men of the army in the field.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:3 @ And when the people had come into the camp, the elders of Israel said, "Why has the LORD defeated us today before the Philistines? Let us bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD from Shiloh to us, that when it comes among us it may save us from the hand of our enemies."

nkjv@1Samuel:4:4 @ So the people sent to Shiloh, that they might bring from there the ark of the covenant of the LORD of hosts, who dwells between the cherubim. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there with the ark of the covenant of God.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:5 @ And when the ark of the covenant of the LORD came into the camp, all Israel shouted so loudly that the earth shook.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:6 @ Now when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, "What does the sound of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews mean?" Then they understood that the ark of the LORD had come into the camp.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:7 @ So the Philistines were afraid, for they said, "God has come into the camp!" And they said, "Woe to us! For such a thing has never happened before.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:8 @ Woe to us! Who will deliver us from the hand of these mighty gods? These are the gods who struck the Egyptians with all the plagues in the wilderness.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:9 @ Be strong and conduct yourselves like men, you Philistines, that you do not become servants of the Hebrews, as they have been to you. Conduct yourselves like men, and fight!"

nkjv@1Samuel:4:10 @ So the Philistines fought, and Israel was defeated, and every man fled to his tent. There was a very great slaughter, and there fell of Israel thirty thousand foot soldiers.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:11 @ Also the ark of God was captured; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:12 @ Then a man of Benjamin ran from the battle line the same day, and came to Shiloh with his clothes torn and dirt on his head.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:13 @ Now when he came, there was Eli, sitting on a seat by the wayside watching, for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city and told it, all the city cried out.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:14 @ When Eli heard the noise of the outcry, he said, "What does the sound of this tumult mean?" And the man came quickly and told Eli.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:15 @ Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes were so dim that he could not see.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:16 @ Then the man said to Eli, "I am he who came from the battle. And I fled today from the battle line." And he said, "What happened, my son?"

nkjv@1Samuel:4:17 @ So the messenger answered and said, "Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been a great slaughter among the people. Also your two sons, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead; and the ark of God has been captured."

nkjv@1Samuel:4:18 @ Then it happened, when he made mention of the ark of God, that Eli fell off the seat backward by the side of the gate; and his neck was broken and he died, for the man was old and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:19 @ Now his daughter-in-law, Phinehas' wife, was with child, due to be delivered; and when she heard the news that the ark of God was captured, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and gave birth, for her labor pains came upon her.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:20 @ And about the time of her death the women who stood by her said to her, "Do not fear, for you have borne a son." But she did not answer, nor did she regard it.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:21 @ Then she named the child Ichabod, saying, "The glory has departed from Israel!" because the ark of God had been captured and because of her father-in-law and her husband.

nkjv@1Samuel:4:22 @ And she said, "The glory has departed from Israel, for the ark of God has been captured."

nkjv@1Samuel:5:1 @ Then the Philistines took the ark of God and brought it from Ebenezer to Ashdod.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:2 @ When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon and set it by Dagon.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:3 @ And when the people of Ashdod arose early in the morning, there was Dagon, fallen on its face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. So they took Dagon and set it in its place again.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:4 @ And when they arose early the next morning, there was Dagon, fallen on its face to the ground before the ark of the LORD. The head of Dagon and both the palms of its hands were broken off on the threshold; only Dagon's torso was left of it.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:5 @ Therefore neither the priests of Dagon nor any who come into Dagon's house tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:6 @ But the hand of the LORD was heavy on the people of Ashdod, and He ravaged them and struck them with tumors, both Ashdod and its territory.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:7 @ And when the men of Ashdod saw how it was, they said, "The ark of the God of Israel must not remain with us, for His hand is harsh toward us and Dagon our god."

nkjv@1Samuel:5:8 @ Therefore they sent and gathered to themselves all the lords of the Philistines, and said, "What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel?" And they answered, "Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried away to Gath." So they carried the ark of the God of Israel away.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:9 @ So it was, after they had carried it away, that the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction; and He struck the men of the city, both small and great, and tumors broke out on them.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:10 @ Therefore they sent the ark of God to Ekron. So it was, as the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, "They have brought the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people!"

nkjv@1Samuel:5:11 @ So they sent and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines, and said, "Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go back to its own place, so that it does not kill us and our people." For there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city; the hand of God was very heavy there.

nkjv@1Samuel:5:12 @ And the men who did not die were stricken with the tumors, and the cry of the city went up to heaven.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:1 @ Now the ark of the LORD was in the country of the Philistines seven months.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:2 @ And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, "What shall we do with the ark of the LORD? Tell us how we should send it to its place."

nkjv@1Samuel:6:3 @ So they said, "If you send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it empty; but by all means return it to Him with a trespass offering. Then you will be healed, and it will be known to you why His hand is not removed from you."

nkjv@1Samuel:6:4 @ Then they said, "What is the trespass offering which we shall return to Him?" They answered, "Five golden tumors and five golden rats, according to the number of the lords of the Philistines. For the same plague was on all of you and on your lords.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:5 @ Therefore you shall make images of your tumors and images of your rats that ravage the land, and you shall give glory to the God of Israel; perhaps He will lighten His hand from you, from your gods, and from your land.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:6 @ Why then do you harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When He did mighty things among them, did they not let the people go, that they might depart?

nkjv@1Samuel:6:7 @ Now therefore, make a new cart, take two milk cows which have never been yoked, and hitch the cows to the cart; and take their calves home, away from them.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:8 @ Then take the ark of the LORD and set it on the cart; and put the articles of gold which you are returning to Him as a trespass offering in a chest by its side. Then send it away, and let it go.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:9 @ And watch: if it goes up the road to its own territory, to Beth Shemesh, then He has done us this great evil. But if not, then we shall know that it is not His hand that struck us--it happened to us by chance."

nkjv@1Samuel:6:10 @ Then the men did so; they took two milk cows and hitched them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:11 @ And they set the ark of the LORD on the cart, and the chest with the gold rats and the images of their tumors.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:12 @ Then the cows headed straight for the road to Beth Shemesh, and went along the highway, lowing as they went, and did not turn aside to the right hand or the left. And the lords of the Philistines went after them to the border of Beth Shemesh.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:13 @ Now the people of Beth Shemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley; and they lifted their eyes and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:14 @ Then the cart came into the field of Joshua of Beth Shemesh, and stood there; a large stone was there. So they split the wood of the cart and offered the cows as a burnt offering to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:15 @ The Levites took down the ark of the LORD and the chest that was with it, in which were the articles of gold, and put them on the large stone. Then the men of Beth Shemesh offered burnt offerings and made sacrifices the same day to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:16 @ So when the five lords of the Philistines had seen it, they returned to Ekron the same day.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:17 @ These are the golden tumors which the Philistines returned as a trespass offering to the LORD: one for Ashdod, one for Gaza, one for Ashkelon, one for Gath, one for Ekron;

nkjv@1Samuel:6:18 @ and the golden rats, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both fortified cities and country villages, even as far as the large stone of Abel on which they set the ark of the LORD, which stone remains to this day in the field of Joshua of Beth Shemesh.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:19 @ Then He struck the men of Beth Shemesh, because they had looked into the ark of the LORD. He struck fifty thousand and seventy men of the people, and the people lamented because the LORD had struck the people with a great slaughter.

nkjv@1Samuel:6:20 @ And the men of Beth Shemesh said, "Who is able to stand before this holy LORD God? And to whom shall it go up from us?"

nkjv@1Samuel:6:21 @ So they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kirjath Jearim, saying, "The Philistines have brought back the ark of the LORD; come down and take it up with you."

nkjv@1Samuel:7:1 @ Then the men of Kirjath Jearim came and took the ark of the LORD, and brought it into the house of Abinadab on the hill, and consecrated Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:2 @ So it was that the ark remained in Kirjath Jearim a long time; it was there twenty years. And all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:3 @ Then Samuel spoke to all the house of Israel, saying, "If you return to the LORD with all your hearts, then put away the foreign gods and the Ashtoreths from among you, and prepare your hearts for the LORD, and serve Him only; and He will deliver you from the hand of the Philistines."

nkjv@1Samuel:7:4 @ So the children of Israel put away the Baals and the Ashtoreths, and served the LORD only.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:5 @ And Samuel said, "Gather all Israel to Mizpah, and I will pray to the LORD for you."

nkjv@1Samuel:7:6 @ So they gathered together at Mizpah, drew water, and poured it out before the LORD. And they fasted that day, and said there, "We have sinned against the LORD." And Samuel judged the children of Israel at Mizpah.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:7 @ Now when the Philistines heard that the children of Israel had gathered together at Mizpah, the lords of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the children of Israel heard of it, they were afraid of the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:8 @ So the children of Israel said to Samuel, "Do not cease to cry out to the LORD our God for us, that He may save us from the hand of the Philistines."

nkjv@1Samuel:7:9 @ And Samuel took a suckling lamb and offered it as a whole burnt offering to the LORD. Then Samuel cried out to the LORD for Israel, and the LORD answered him.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:10 @ Now as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering, the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel. But the LORD thundered with a loud thunder upon the Philistines that day, and so confused them that they were overcome before Israel.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:11 @ And the men of Israel went out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, and drove them back as far as below Beth Car.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:12 @ Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen, and called its name Ebenezer, saying, "Thus far the LORD has helped us."

nkjv@1Samuel:7:13 @ So the Philistines were subdued, and they did not come anymore into the territory of Israel. And the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:14 @ Then the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel, from Ekron to Gath; and Israel recovered its territory from the hands of the Philistines. Also there was peace between Israel and the Amorites.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:15 @ And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:16 @ He went from year to year on a circuit to Bethel, Gilgal, and Mizpah, and judged Israel in all those places.

nkjv@1Samuel:7:17 @ But he always returned to Ramah, for his home was there. There he judged Israel, and there he built an altar to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:1 @ Now it came to pass when Samuel was old that he made his sons judges over Israel.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:2 @ The name of his firstborn was Joel, and the name of his second, Abijah; they were judges in Beersheba.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:3 @ But his sons did not walk in his ways; they turned aside after dishonest gain, took bribes, and perverted justice.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:4 @ Then all the elders of Israel gathered together and came to Samuel at Ramah,

nkjv@1Samuel:8:5 @ and said to him, "Look, you are old, and your sons do not walk in your ways. Now make us a king to judge us like all the nations."

nkjv@1Samuel:8:6 @ But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, "Give us a king to judge us." So Samuel prayed to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:7 @ And the LORD said to Samuel, "Heed the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected Me, that I should not reign over them.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:8 @ According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt, even to this day--with which they have forsaken Me and served other gods--so they are doing to you also.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:9 @ Now therefore, heed their voice. However, you shall solemnly forewarn them, and show them the behavior of the king who will reign over them."

nkjv@1Samuel:8:10 @ So Samuel told all the words of the LORD to the people who asked him for a king.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:11 @ And he said, "This will be the behavior of the king who will reign over you: He will take your sons and appoint them for his own chariots and to be his horsemen, and some will run before his chariots.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:12 @ He will appoint captains over his thousands and captains over his fifties, will set some to plow his ground and reap his harvest, and some to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:13 @ He will take your daughters to be perfumers, cooks, and bakers.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:14 @ And he will take the best of your fields, your vineyards, and your olive groves, and give them to his servants.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:15 @ He will take a tenth of your grain and your vintage, and give it to his officers and servants.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:16 @ And he will take your male servants, your female servants, your finest young men, and your donkeys, and put them to his work.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:17 @ He will take a tenth of your sheep. And you will be his servants.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:18 @ And you will cry out in that day because of your king whom you have chosen for yourselves, and the LORD will not hear you in that day."

nkjv@1Samuel:8:19 @ Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, "No, but we will have a king over us,

nkjv@1Samuel:8:20 @ that we also may be like all the nations, and that our king may judge us and go out before us and fight our battles."

nkjv@1Samuel:8:21 @ And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he repeated them in the hearing of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:8:22 @ So the LORD said to Samuel, "Heed their voice, and make them a king." And Samuel said to the men of Israel, "Every man go to his city."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:1 @ There was a man of Benjamin whose name was Kish the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, a Benjamite, a mighty man of power.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:2 @ And he had a choice and handsome son whose name was Saul. There was not a more handsome person than he among the children of Israel. From his shoulders upward he was taller than any of the people.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:3 @ Now the donkeys of Kish, Saul's father, were lost. And Kish said to his son Saul, "Please take one of the servants with you, and arise, go and look for the donkeys."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:4 @ So he passed through the mountains of Ephraim and through the land of Shalisha, but they did not find them. Then they passed through the land of Shaalim, and they were not there. Then he passed through the land of the Benjamites, but they did not find them.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:5 @ When they had come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant who was with him, "Come, let us return, lest my father cease caring about the donkeys and become worried about us."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:6 @ And he said to him, "Look now, there is in this city a man of God, and he is an honorable man; all that he says surely comes to pass. So let us go there; perhaps he can show us the way that we should go."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:7 @ Then Saul said to his servant, "But look, if we go, what shall we bring the man? For the bread in our vessels is all gone, and there is no present to bring to the man of God. What do we have?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:8 @ And the servant answered Saul again and said, "Look, I have here at hand one-fourth of a shekel of silver. I will give that to the man of God, to tell us our way."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:9 @ (Formerly in Israel, when a man went to inquire of God, he spoke thus: "Come, let us go to the seer"; for he who is now called a prophet was formerly called a seer.)

nkjv@1Samuel:9:10 @ Then Saul said to his servant, "Well said; come, let us go." So they went to the city where the man of God was.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:11 @ As they went up the hill to the city, they met some young women going out to draw water, and said to them, "Is the seer here?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:12 @ And they answered them and said, "Yes, there he is, just ahead of you. Hurry now; for today he came to this city, because there is a sacrifice of the people today on the high place.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:13 @ As soon as you come into the city, you will surely find him before he goes up to the high place to eat. For the people will not eat until he comes, because he must bless the sacrifice; afterward those who are invited will eat. Now therefore, go up, for about this time you will find him."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:14 @ So they went up to the city. As they were coming into the city, there was Samuel, coming out toward them on his way up to the high place.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:15 @ Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear the day before Saul came, saying,

nkjv@1Samuel:9:16 @ "Tomorrow about this time I will send you a man from the land of Benjamin, and you shall anoint him commander over My people Israel, that he may save My people from the hand of the Philistines; for I have looked upon My people, because their cry has come to Me."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:17 @ So when Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said to him, "There he is, the man of whom I spoke to you. This one shall reign over My people."

nkjv@1Samuel:9:18 @ Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate, and said, "Please tell me, where is the seer's house?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:19 @ Samuel answered Saul and said, "I am the seer. Go up before me to the high place, for you shall eat with me today; and tomorrow I will let you go and will tell you all that is in your heart.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:20 @ But as for your donkeys that were lost three days ago, do not be anxious about them, for they have been found. And on whom is all the desire of Israel? Is it not on you and on all your father's house?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:21 @ And Saul answered and said, "Am I not a Benjamite, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel, and my family the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? Why then do you speak like this to me?"

nkjv@1Samuel:9:22 @ Now Samuel took Saul and his servant and brought them into the hall, and had them sit in the place of honor among those who were invited; there were about thirty persons.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:23 @ And Samuel said to the cook, "Bring the portion which I gave you, of which I said to you, "Set it apart."'

nkjv@1Samuel:9:24 @ So the cook took up the thigh with its upper part and set it before Saul. And Samuel said, "Here it is, what was kept back. It was set apart for you. Eat; for until this time it has been kept for you, since I said I invited the people." So Saul ate with Samuel that day.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:25 @ When they had come down from the high place into the city, Samuel spoke with Saul on the top of the house.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:26 @ They arose early; and it was about the dawning of the day that Samuel called to Saul on the top of the house, saying, "Get up, that I may send you on your way." And Saul arose, and both of them went outside, he and Samuel.

nkjv@1Samuel:9:27 @ As they were going down to the outskirts of the city, Samuel said to Saul, "Tell the servant to go on ahead of us." And he went on. "But you stand here awhile, that I may announce to you the word of God."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:1 @ Then Samuel took a flask of oil and poured it on his head, and kissed him and said: "Is it not because the LORD has anointed you commander over His inheritance?

nkjv@1Samuel:10:2 @ When you have departed from me today, you will find two men by Rachel's tomb in the territory of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to you, "The donkeys which you went to look for have been found. And now your father has ceased caring about the donkeys and is worrying about you, saying, "What shall I do about my son?"'

nkjv@1Samuel:10:3 @ Then you shall go on forward from there and come to the terebinth tree of Tabor. There three men going up to God at Bethel will meet you, one carrying three young goats, another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a skin of wine.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:4 @ And they will greet you and give you two loaves of bread, which you shall receive from their hands.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:5 @ After that you shall come to the hill of God where the Philistine garrison is. And it will happen, when you have come there to the city, that you will meet a group of prophets coming down from the high place with a stringed instrument, a tambourine, a flute, and a harp before them; and they will be prophesying.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:6 @ Then the Spirit of the LORD will come upon you, and you will prophesy with them and be turned into another man.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:7 @ And let it be, when these signs come to you, that you do as the occasion demands; for God is with you.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:8 @ You shall go down before me to Gilgal; and surely I will come down to you to offer burnt offerings and make sacrifices of peace offerings. Seven days you shall wait, till I come to you and show you what you should do."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:9 @ So it was, when he had turned his back to go from Samuel, that God gave him another heart; and all those signs came to pass that day.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:10 @ When they came there to the hill, there was a group of prophets to meet him; then the Spirit of God came upon him, and he prophesied among them.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:11 @ And it happened, when all who knew him formerly saw that he indeed prophesied among the prophets, that the people said to one another, "What is this that has come upon the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?"

nkjv@1Samuel:10:12 @ Then a man from there answered and said, "But who is their father?" Therefore it became a proverb: "Is Saul also among the prophets?"

nkjv@1Samuel:10:13 @ And when he had finished prophesying, he went to the high place.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:14 @ Then Saul's uncle said to him and his servant, "Where did you go?" So he said, "To look for the donkeys. When we saw that they were nowhere to be found, we went to Samuel."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:15 @ And Saul's uncle said, "Tell me, please, what Samuel said to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:16 @ So Saul said to his uncle, "He told us plainly that the donkeys had been found." But about the matter of the kingdom, he did not tell him what Samuel had said.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:17 @ Then Samuel called the people together to the LORD at Mizpah,

nkjv@1Samuel:10:18 @ and said to the children of Israel, "Thus says the LORD God of Israel: "I brought up Israel out of Egypt, and delivered you from the hand of the Egyptians and from the hand of all kingdoms and from those who oppressed you.'

nkjv@1Samuel:10:19 @ But you have today rejected your God, who Himself saved you from all your adversities and your tribulations; and you have said to Him, "No, set a king over us!' Now therefore, present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes and by your clans."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:20 @ And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was chosen.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:21 @ When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their families, the family of Matri was chosen. And Saul the son of Kish was chosen. But when they sought him, he could not be found.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:22 @ Therefore they inquired of the LORD further, "Has the man come here yet?" And the LORD answered, "There he is, hidden among the equipment."

nkjv@1Samuel:10:23 @ So they ran and brought him from there; and when he stood among the people, he was taller than any of the people from his shoulders upward.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:24 @ And Samuel said to all the people, "Do you see him whom the LORD has chosen, that there is no one like him among all the people?" So all the people shouted and said, "Long live the king!"

nkjv@1Samuel:10:25 @ Then Samuel explained to the people the behavior of royalty, and wrote it in a book and laid it up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:26 @ And Saul also went home to Gibeah; and valiant men went with him, whose hearts God had touched.

nkjv@1Samuel:10:27 @ But some rebels said, "How can this man save us?" So they despised him, and brought him no presents. But he held his peace.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:1 @ Then Nahash the Ammonite came up and encamped against Jabesh Gilead; and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, "Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:2 @ And Nahash the Ammonite answered them, "On this condition I will make a covenant with you, that I may put out all your right eyes, and bring reproach on all Israel."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:3 @ Then the elders of Jabesh said to him, "Hold off for seven days, that we may send messengers to all the territory of Israel. And then, if there is no one to save us, we will come out to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:4 @ So the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul and told the news in the hearing of the people. And all the people lifted up their voices and wept.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:5 @ Now there was Saul, coming behind the herd from the field; and Saul said, "What troubles the people, that they weep?" And they told him the words of the men of Jabesh.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:6 @ Then the Spirit of God came upon Saul when he heard this news, and his anger was greatly aroused.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:7 @ So he took a yoke of oxen and cut them in pieces, and sent them throughout all the territory of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, "Whoever does not go out with Saul and Samuel to battle, so it shall be done to his oxen." And the fear of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:8 @ When he numbered them in Bezek, the children of Israel were three hundred thousand, and the men of Judah thirty thousand.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:9 @ And they said to the messengers who came, "Thus you shall say to the men of Jabesh Gilead: "Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you shall have help."' Then the messengers came and reported it to the men of Jabesh, and they were glad.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:10 @ Therefore the men of Jabesh said, "Tomorrow we will come out to you, and you may do with us whatever seems good to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:11 @ So it was, on the next day, that Saul put the people in three companies; and they came into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and killed Ammonites until the heat of the day. And it happened that those who survived were scattered, so that no two of them were left together.

nkjv@1Samuel:11:12 @ Then the people said to Samuel, "Who is he who said, "Shall Saul reign over us?' Bring the men, that we may put them to death."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:13 @ But Saul said, "Not a man shall be put to death this day, for today the LORD has accomplished salvation in Israel."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:14 @ Then Samuel said to the people, "Come, let us go to Gilgal and renew the kingdom there."

nkjv@1Samuel:11:15 @ So all the people went to Gilgal, and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal. There they made sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD, and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:1 @ Now Samuel said to all Israel: "Indeed I have heeded your voice in all that you said to me, and have made a king over you.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:2 @ And now here is the king, walking before you; and I am old and grayheaded, and look, my sons are with you. I have walked before you from my childhood to this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:3 @ Here I am. Witness against me before the LORD and before His anointed: Whose ox have I taken, or whose donkey have I taken, or whom have I cheated? Whom have I oppressed, or from whose hand have I received any bribe with which to blind my eyes? I will restore it to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:12:4 @ And they said, "You have not cheated us or oppressed us, nor have you taken anything from any man's hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:12:5 @ Then he said to them, "The LORD is witness against you, and His anointed is witness this day, that you have not found anything in my hand." And they answered, "He is witness."

nkjv@1Samuel:12:6 @ Then Samuel said to the people, "It is the LORD who raised up Moses and Aaron, and who brought your fathers up from the land of Egypt.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:7 @ Now therefore, stand still, that I may reason with you before the LORD concerning all the righteous acts of the LORD which He did to you and your fathers:

nkjv@1Samuel:12:8 @ When Jacob had gone into Egypt, and your fathers cried out to the LORD, then the LORD sent Moses and Aaron, who brought your fathers out of Egypt and made them dwell in this place.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:9 @ And when they forgot the LORD their God, He sold them into the hand of Sisera, commander of the army of Hazor, into the hand of the Philistines, and into the hand of the king of Moab; and they fought against them.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:10 @ Then they cried out to the LORD, and said, "We have sinned, because we have forsaken the LORD and served the Baals and Ashtoreths; but now deliver us from the hand of our enemies, and we will serve You.'

nkjv@1Samuel:12:11 @ And the LORD sent Jerubbaal, Bedan, Jephthah, and Samuel, and delivered you out of the hand of your enemies on every side; and you dwelt in safety.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:12 @ And when you saw that Nahash king of the Ammonites came against you, you said to me, "No, but a king shall reign over us,' when the LORD your God was your king.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:13 @ "Now therefore, here is the king whom you have chosen and whom you have desired. And take note, the LORD has set a king over you.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:14 @ If you fear the LORD and serve Him and obey His voice, and do not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then both you and the king who reigns over you will continue following the LORD your God.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:15 @ However, if you do not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then the hand of the LORD will be against you, as it was against your fathers.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:16 @ "Now therefore, stand and see this great thing which the LORD will do before your eyes:

nkjv@1Samuel:12:17 @ Is today not the wheat harvest? I will call to the LORD, and He will send thunder and rain, that you may perceive and see that your wickedness is great, which you have done in the sight of the LORD, in asking a king for yourselves."

nkjv@1Samuel:12:18 @ So Samuel called to the LORD, and the LORD sent thunder and rain that day; and all the people greatly feared the LORD and Samuel.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:19 @ And all the people said to Samuel, "Pray for your servants to the LORD your God, that we may not die; for we have added to all our sins the evil of asking a king for ourselves."

nkjv@1Samuel:12:20 @ Then Samuel said to the people, "Do not fear. You have done all this wickedness; yet do not turn aside from following the LORD, but serve the LORD with all your heart.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:21 @ And do not turn aside; for then you would go after empty things which cannot profit or deliver, for they are nothing.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:22 @ For the LORD will not forsake His people, for His great name's sake, because it has pleased the LORD to make you His people.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:23 @ Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD in ceasing to pray for you; but I will teach you the good and the right way.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:24 @ Only fear the LORD, and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you.

nkjv@1Samuel:12:25 @ But if you still do wickedly, you shall be swept away, both you and your king."

nkjv@1Samuel:13:1 @ Saul reigned one year; and when he had reigned two years over Israel,

nkjv@1Samuel:13:2 @ Saul chose for himself three thousand men of Israel. Two thousand were with Saul in Michmash and in the mountains of Bethel, and a thousand were with Jonathan in Gibeah of Benjamin. The rest of the people he sent away, every man to his tent.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:3 @ And Jonathan attacked the garrison of the Philistines that was in Geba, and the Philistines heard of it. Then Saul blew the trumpet throughout all the land, saying, "Let the Hebrews hear!"

nkjv@1Samuel:13:4 @ Now all Israel heard it said that Saul had attacked a garrison of the Philistines, and that Israel had also become an abomination to the Philistines. And the people were called together to Saul at Gilgal.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:5 @ Then the Philistines gathered together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the seashore in multitude. And they came up and encamped in Michmash, to the east of Beth Aven.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:6 @ When the men of Israel saw that they were in danger (for the people were distressed), then the people hid in caves, in thickets, in rocks, in holes, and in pits.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:7 @ And some of the Hebrews crossed over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead. As for Saul, he was still in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:8 @ Then he waited seven days, according to the time set by Samuel. But Samuel did not come to Gilgal; and the people were scattered from him.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:9 @ So Saul said, "Bring a burnt offering and peace offerings here to me." And he offered the burnt offering.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:10 @ Now it happened, as soon as he had finished presenting the burnt offering, that Samuel came; and Saul went out to meet him, that he might greet him.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:11 @ And Samuel said, "What have you done?" Saul said, "When I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you did not come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines gathered together at Michmash,

nkjv@1Samuel:13:12 @ then I said, "The Philistines will now come down on me at Gilgal, and I have not made supplication to the LORD.' Therefore I felt compelled, and offered a burnt offering."

nkjv@1Samuel:13:13 @ And Samuel said to Saul, "You have done foolishly. You have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which He commanded you. For now the LORD would have established your kingdom over Israel forever.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:14 @ But now your kingdom shall not continue. The LORD has sought for Himself a man after His own heart, and the LORD has commanded him to be commander over His people, because you have not kept what the LORD commanded you."

nkjv@1Samuel:13:15 @ Then Samuel arose and went up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people present with him, about six hundred men.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:16 @ Saul, Jonathan his son, and the people present with them remained in Gibeah of Benjamin. But the Philistines encamped in Michmash.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:21 @ and the charge for a sharpening was a pim for the plowshares, the mattocks, the forks, and the axes, and to set the points of the goads.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:22 @ So it came about, on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan. But they were found with Saul and Jonathan his son.

nkjv@1Samuel:13:23 @ And the garrison of the Philistines went out to the pass of Michmash.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:1 @ Now it happened one day that Jonathan the son of Saul said to the young man who bore his armor, "Come, let us go over to the Philistines' garrison that is on the other side." But he did not tell his father.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:2 @ And Saul was sitting in the outskirts of Gibeah under a pomegranate tree which is in Migron. The people who were with him were about six hundred men.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:3 @ Ahijah the son of Ahitub, Ichabod's brother, the son of Phinehas, the son of Eli, the LORD's priest in Shiloh, was wearing an ephod. But the people did not know that Jonathan had gone.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:4 @ Between the passes, by which Jonathan sought to go over to the Philistines' garrison, there was a sharp rock on one side and a sharp rock on the other side. And the name of one was Bozez, and the name of the other Seneh.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:5 @ The front of one faced northward opposite Michmash, and the other southward opposite Gibeah.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:6 @ Then Jonathan said to the young man who bore his armor, "Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; it may be that the LORD will work for us. For nothing restrains the LORD from saving by many or by few."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:7 @ So his armorbearer said to him, "Do all that is in your heart. Go then; here I am with you, according to your heart."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:8 @ Then Jonathan said, "Very well, let us cross over to these men, and we will show ourselves to them.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:9 @ If they say thus to us, "Wait until we come to you,' then we will stand still in our place and not go up to them.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:10 @ But if they say thus, "Come up to us,' then we will go up. For the LORD has delivered them into our hand, and this will be a sign to us."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:11 @ So both of them showed themselves to the garrison of the Philistines. And the Philistines said, "Look, the Hebrews are coming out of the holes where they have hidden."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:12 @ Then the men of the garrison called to Jonathan and his armorbearer, and said, "Come up to us, and we will show you something." Jonathan said to his armorbearer, "Come up after me, for the LORD has delivered them into the hand of Israel."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:13 @ And Jonathan climbed up on his hands and knees with his armorbearer after him; and they fell before Jonathan. And as he came after him, his armorbearer killed them.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:14 @ That first slaughter which Jonathan and his armorbearer made was about twenty men within about half an acre of land.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:15 @ And there was trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people. The garrison and the raiders also trembled; and the earth quaked, so that it was a very great trembling.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:16 @ Now the watchmen of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and there was the multitude, melting away; and they went here and there.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:17 @ Then Saul said to the people who were with him, "Now call the roll and see who has gone from us." And when they had called the roll, surprisingly, Jonathan and his armorbearer were not there.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:18 @ And Saul said to Ahijah, "Bring the ark of God here" (for at that time the ark of God was with the children of Israel).

nkjv@1Samuel:14:19 @ Now it happened, while Saul talked to the priest, that the noise which was in the camp of the Philistines continued to increase; so Saul said to the priest, "Withdraw your hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:20 @ Then Saul and all the people who were with him assembled, and they went to the battle; and indeed every man's sword was against his neighbor, and there was very great confusion.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:21 @ Moreover the Hebrews who were with the Philistines before that time, who went up with them into the camp from the surrounding country, they also joined the Israelites who were with Saul and Jonathan.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:22 @ Likewise all the men of Israel who had hidden in the mountains of Ephraim, when they heard that the Philistines fled, they also followed hard after them in the battle.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:23 @ So the LORD saved Israel that day, and the battle shifted to Beth Aven.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:24 @ And the men of Israel were distressed that day, for Saul had placed the people under oath, saying, "Cursed is the man who eats any food until evening, before I have taken vengeance on my enemies." So none of the people tasted food.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:25 @ Now all the people of the land came to a forest; and there was honey on the ground.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:26 @ And when the people had come into the woods, there was the honey, dripping; but no one put his hand to his mouth, for the people feared the oath.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:27 @ But Jonathan had not heard his father charge the people with the oath; therefore he stretched out the end of the rod that was in his hand and dipped it in a honeycomb, and put his hand to his mouth; and his countenance brightened.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:28 @ Then one of the people said, "Your father strictly charged the people with an oath, saying, "Cursed is the man who eats food this day."' And the people were faint.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:29 @ But Jonathan said, "My father has troubled the land. Look now, how my countenance has brightened because I tasted a little of this honey.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:30 @ How much better if the people had eaten freely today of the spoil of their enemies which they found! For now would there not have been a much greater slaughter among the Philistines?"

nkjv@1Samuel:14:31 @ Now they had driven back the Philistines that day from Michmash to Aijalon. So the people were very faint.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:32 @ And the people rushed on the spoil, and took sheep, oxen, and calves, and slaughtered them on the ground; and the people ate them with the blood.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:33 @ Then they told Saul, saying, "Look, the people are sinning against the LORD by eating with the blood!" So he said, "You have dealt treacherously; roll a large stone to me this day."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:34 @ Then Saul said, "Disperse yourselves among the people, and say to them, "Bring me here every man's ox and every man's sheep, slaughter them here, and eat; and do not sin against the LORD by eating with the blood."' So every one of the people brought his ox with him that night, and slaughtered it there.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:35 @ Then Saul built an altar to the LORD. This was the first altar that he built to the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:36 @ Now Saul said, "Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and plunder them until the morning light; and let us not leave a man of them." And they said, "Do whatever seems good to you." Then the priest said, "Let us draw near to God here."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:37 @ So Saul asked counsel of God, "Shall I go down after the Philistines? Will You deliver them into the hand of Israel?" But He did not answer him that day.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:38 @ And Saul said, "Come over here, all you chiefs of the people, and know and see what this sin was today.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:39 @ For as the LORD lives, who saves Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, he shall surely die." But not a man among all the people answered him.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:40 @ Then he said to all Israel, "You be on one side, and my son Jonathan and I will be on the other side." And the people said to Saul, "Do what seems good to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:41 @ Therefore Saul said to the LORD God of Israel, "Give a perfect lot." So Saul and Jonathan were taken, but the people escaped.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:42 @ And Saul said, "Cast lots between my son Jonathan and me." So Jonathan was taken.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:43 @ Then Saul said to Jonathan, "Tell me what you have done." And Jonathan told him, and said, "I only tasted a little honey with the end of the rod that was in my hand. So now I must die!"

nkjv@1Samuel:14:44 @ Saul answered, "God do so and more also; for you shall surely die, Jonathan."

nkjv@1Samuel:14:45 @ But the people said to Saul, "Shall Jonathan die, who has accomplished this great deliverance in Israel? Certainly not! As the LORD lives, not one hair of his head shall fall to the ground, for he has worked with God this day." So the people rescued Jonathan, and he did not die.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:46 @ Then Saul returned from pursuing the Philistines, and the Philistines went to their own place.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:47 @ So Saul established his sovereignty over Israel, and fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, against the people of Ammon, against Edom, against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines. Wherever he turned, he harassed them.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:48 @ And he gathered an army and attacked the Amalekites, and delivered Israel from the hands of those who plundered them.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:49 @ The sons of Saul were Jonathan, Jishui, and Malchishua. And the names of his two daughters were these: the name of the firstborn Merab, and the name of the younger Michal.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:50 @ The name of Saul's wife was Ahinoam the daughter of Ahimaaz. And the name of the commander of his army was Abner the son of Ner, Saul's uncle.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:51 @ Kish was the father of Saul, and Ner the father of Abner was the son of Abiel.

nkjv@1Samuel:14:52 @ Now there was fierce war with the Philistines all the days of Saul. And when Saul saw any strong man or any valiant man, he took him for himself.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:1 @ Samuel also said to Saul, "The LORD sent me to anoint you king over His people, over Israel. Now therefore, heed the voice of the words of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:2 @ Thus says the LORD of hosts: "I will punish Amalek for what he did to Israel, how he ambushed him on the way when he came up from Egypt.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:3 @ Now go and attack Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and do not spare them. But kill both man and woman, infant and nursing child, ox and sheep, camel and donkey."'

nkjv@1Samuel:15:4 @ So Saul gathered the people together and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand foot soldiers and ten thousand men of Judah.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:5 @ And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and lay in wait in the valley.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:6 @ Then Saul said to the Kenites, "Go, depart, get down from among the Amalekites, lest I destroy you with them. For you showed kindness to all the children of Israel when they came up out of Egypt." So the Kenites departed from among the Amalekites.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:7 @ And Saul attacked the Amalekites, from Havilah all the way to Shur, which is east of Egypt.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:8 @ He also took Agag king of the Amalekites alive, and utterly destroyed all the people with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:9 @ But Saul and the people spared Agag and the best of the sheep, the oxen, the fatlings, the lambs, and all that was good, and were unwilling to utterly destroy them. But everything despised and worthless, that they utterly destroyed.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:10 @ Now the word of the LORD came to Samuel, saying,

nkjv@1Samuel:15:11 @ "I greatly regret that I have set up Saul as king, for he has turned back from following Me, and has not performed My commandments." And it grieved Samuel, and he cried out to the LORD all night.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:12 @ So when Samuel rose early in the morning to meet Saul, it was told Samuel, saying, "Saul went to Carmel, and indeed, he set up a monument for himself; and he has gone on around, passed by, and gone down to Gilgal."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:13 @ Then Samuel went to Saul, and Saul said to him, "Blessed are you of the LORD! I have performed the commandment of the LORD."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:14 @ But Samuel said, "What then is this bleating of the sheep in my ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?"

nkjv@1Samuel:15:15 @ And Saul said, "They have brought them from the Amalekites; for the people spared the best of the sheep and the oxen, to sacrifice to the LORD your God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:16 @ Then Samuel said to Saul, "Be quiet! And I will tell you what the LORD said to me last night." And he said to him, "Speak on."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:17 @ So Samuel said, "When you were little in your own eyes, were you not head of the tribes of Israel? And did not the LORD anoint you king over Israel?

nkjv@1Samuel:15:18 @ Now the LORD sent you on a mission, and said, "Go, and utterly destroy the sinners, the Amalekites, and fight against them until they are consumed.'

nkjv@1Samuel:15:19 @ Why then did you not obey the voice of the LORD? Why did you swoop down on the spoil, and do evil in the sight of the LORD?"

nkjv@1Samuel:15:20 @ And Saul said to Samuel, "But I have obeyed the voice of the LORD, and gone on the mission on which the LORD sent me, and brought back Agag king of Amalek; I have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:21 @ But the people took of the plunder, sheep and oxen, the best of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice to the LORD your God in Gilgal."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:22 @ So Samuel said: "Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, As in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to heed than the fat of rams.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:23 @ For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because you have rejected the word of the LORD, He also has rejected you from being king."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:24 @ Then Saul said to Samuel, "I have sinned, for I have transgressed the commandment of the LORD and your words, because I feared the people and obeyed their voice.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:25 @ Now therefore, please pardon my sin, and return with me, that I may worship the LORD."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:26 @ But Samuel said to Saul, "I will not return with you, for you have rejected the word of the LORD, and the LORD has rejected you from being king over Israel."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:27 @ And as Samuel turned around to go away, Saul seized the edge of his robe, and it tore.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:28 @ So Samuel said to him, "The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today, and has given it to a neighbor of yours, who is better than you.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:29 @ And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor relent. For He is not a man, that He should relent."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:30 @ Then he said, "I have sinned; yet honor me now, please, before the elders of my people and before Israel, and return with me, that I may worship the LORD your God."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:31 @ So Samuel turned back after Saul, and Saul worshiped the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:32 @ Then Samuel said, "Bring Agag king of the Amalekites here to me." So Agag came to him cautiously. And Agag said, "Surely the bitterness of death is past."

nkjv@1Samuel:15:33 @ But Samuel said, "As your sword has made women childless, so shall your mother be childless among women." And Samuel hacked Agag in pieces before the LORD in Gilgal.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:34 @ Then Samuel went to Ramah, and Saul went up to his house at Gibeah of Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:15:35 @ And Samuel went no more to see Saul until the day of his death. Nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul, and the LORD regretted that He had made Saul king over Israel.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:1 @ Now the LORD said to Samuel, "How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? Fill your horn with oil, and go; I am sending you to Jesse the Bethlehemite. For I have provided Myself a king among his sons."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:2 @ And Samuel said, "How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me." But the LORD said, "Take a heifer with you, and say, "I have come to sacrifice to the LORD.'

nkjv@1Samuel:16:3 @ Then invite Jesse to the sacrifice, and I will show you what you shall do; you shall anoint for Me the one I name to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:4 @ So Samuel did what the LORD said, and went to Bethlehem. And the elders of the town trembled at his coming, and said, "Do you come peaceably?"

nkjv@1Samuel:16:5 @ And he said, "Peaceably; I have come to sacrifice to the LORD. Sanctify yourselves, and come with me to the sacrifice." Then he consecrated Jesse and his sons, and invited them to the sacrifice.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:6 @ So it was, when they came, that he looked at Eliab and said, "Surely the LORD's anointed is before Him!"

nkjv@1Samuel:16:7 @ But the LORD said to Samuel, "Do not look at his appearance or at his physical stature, because I have refused him. For the LORD does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:8 @ So Jesse called Abinadab, and made him pass before Samuel. And he said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:9 @ Then Jesse made Shammah pass by. And he said, "Neither has the LORD chosen this one."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:10 @ Thus Jesse made seven of his sons pass before Samuel. And Samuel said to Jesse, "The LORD has not chosen these."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:11 @ And Samuel said to Jesse, "Are all the young men here?" Then he said, "There remains yet the youngest, and there he is, keeping the sheep." And Samuel said to Jesse, "Send and bring him. For we will not sit down till he comes here."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:12 @ So he sent and brought him in. Now he was ruddy, with bright eyes, and good-looking. And the LORD said, "Arise, anoint him; for this is the one!"

nkjv@1Samuel:16:13 @ Then Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the Spirit of the LORD came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel arose and went to Ramah.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:14 @ But the Spirit of the LORD departed from Saul, and a distressing spirit from the LORD troubled him.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:15 @ And Saul's servants said to him, "Surely, a distressing spirit from God is troubling you.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:16 @ Let our master now command your servants, who are before you, to seek out a man who is a skillful player on the harp. And it shall be that he will play it with his hand when the distressing spirit from God is upon you, and you shall be well."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:17 @ So Saul said to his servants, "Provide me now a man who can play well, and bring him to me."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:18 @ Then one of the servants answered and said, "Look, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, who is skillful in playing, a mighty man of valor, a man of war, prudent in speech, and a handsome person; and the LORD is with him."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:19 @ Therefore Saul sent messengers to Jesse, and said, "Send me your son David, who is with the sheep."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:20 @ And Jesse took a donkey loaded with bread, a skin of wine, and a young goat, and sent them by his son David to Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:21 @ So David came to Saul and stood before him. And he loved him greatly, and he became his armorbearer.

nkjv@1Samuel:16:22 @ Then Saul sent to Jesse, saying, "Please let David stand before me, for he has found favor in my sight."

nkjv@1Samuel:16:23 @ And so it was, whenever the spirit from God was upon Saul, that David would take a harp and play it with his hand. Then Saul would become refreshed and well, and the distressing spirit would depart from him.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:1 @ Now the Philistines gathered their armies together to battle, and were gathered at Sochoh, which belongs to Judah; they encamped between Sochoh and Azekah, in Ephes Dammim.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:2 @ And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and they encamped in the Valley of Elah, and drew up in battle array against the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:3 @ The Philistines stood on a mountain on one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side, with a valley between them.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:4 @ And a champion went out from the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, from Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:5 @ He had a bronze helmet on his head, and he was armed with a coat of mail, and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of bronze.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:6 @ And he had bronze armor on his legs and a bronze javelin between his shoulders.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:7 @ Now the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam, and his iron spearhead weighed six hundred shekels; and a shield-bearer went before him.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:8 @ Then he stood and cried out to the armies of Israel, and said to them, "Why have you come out to line up for battle? Am I not a Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:9 @ If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then we will be your servants. But if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall be our servants and serve us."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:10 @ And the Philistine said, "I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:11 @ When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:12 @ Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Judah, whose name was Jesse, and who had eight sons. And the man was old, advanced in years, in the days of Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:13 @ The three oldest sons of Jesse had gone to follow Saul to the battle. The names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:14 @ David was the youngest. And the three oldest followed Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:15 @ But David occasionally went and returned from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Bethlehem.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:16 @ And the Philistine drew near and presented himself forty days, morning and evening.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:17 @ Then Jesse said to his son David, "Take now for your brothers an ephah of this dried grain and these ten loaves, and run to your brothers at the camp.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:18 @ And carry these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand, and see how your brothers fare, and bring back news of them."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:19 @ Now Saul and they and all the men of Israel were in the Valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:20 @ So David rose early in the morning, left the sheep with a keeper, and took the things and went as Jesse had commanded him. And he came to the camp as the army was going out to the fight and shouting for the battle.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:21 @ For Israel and the Philistines had drawn up in battle array, army against army.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:22 @ And David left his supplies in the hand of the supply keeper, ran to the army, and came and greeted his brothers.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:23 @ Then as he talked with them, there was the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, coming up from the armies of the Philistines; and he spoke according to the same words. So David heard them.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:24 @ And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were dreadfully afraid.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:25 @ So the men of Israel said, "Have you seen this man who has come up? Surely he has come up to defy Israel; and it shall be that the man who kills him the king will enrich with great riches, will give him his daughter, and give his father's house exemption from taxes in Israel."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:26 @ Then David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, "What shall be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?"

nkjv@1Samuel:17:27 @ And the people answered him in this manner, saying, "So shall it be done for the man who kills him."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:28 @ Now Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab's anger was aroused against David, and he said, "Why did you come down here? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the insolence of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:29 @ And David said, "What have I done now? Is there not a cause?"

nkjv@1Samuel:17:30 @ Then he turned from him toward another and said the same thing; and these people answered him as the first ones did.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:31 @ Now when the words which David spoke were heard, they reported them to Saul; and he sent for him.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:32 @ Then David said to Saul, "Let no man's heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:33 @ And Saul said to David, "You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are a youth, and he a man of war from his youth."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:34 @ But David said to Saul, "Your servant used to keep his father's sheep, and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock,

nkjv@1Samuel:17:35 @ I went out after it and struck it, and delivered the lamb from its mouth; and when it arose against me, I caught it by its beard, and struck and killed it.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:36 @ Your servant has killed both lion and bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, seeing he has defied the armies of the living God."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:37 @ Moreover David said, "The LORD, who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, He will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine." And Saul said to David, "Go, and the LORD be with you!"

nkjv@1Samuel:17:38 @ So Saul clothed David with his armor, and he put a bronze helmet on his head; he also clothed him with a coat of mail.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:39 @ David fastened his sword to his armor and tried to walk, for he had not tested them. And David said to Saul, "I cannot walk with these, for I have not tested them." So David took them off.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:40 @ Then he took his staff in his hand; and he chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag, in a pouch which he had, and his sling was in his hand. And he drew near to the Philistine.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:41 @ So the Philistine came, and began drawing near to David, and the man who bore the shield went before him.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:42 @ And when the Philistine looked about and saw David, he disdained him; for he was only a youth, ruddy and good-looking.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:43 @ So the Philistine said to David, "Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?" And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:44 @ And the Philistine said to David, "Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field!"

nkjv@1Samuel:17:45 @ Then David said to the Philistine, "You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you in the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:46 @ This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you and take your head from you. And this day I will give the carcasses of the camp of the Philistines to the birds of the air and the wild beasts of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:47 @ Then all this assembly shall know that the LORD does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD's, and He will give you into our hands."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:48 @ So it was, when the Philistine arose and came and drew near to meet David, that David hurried and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:49 @ Then David put his hand in his bag and took out a stone; and he slung it and struck the Philistine in his forehead, so that the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the earth.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:50 @ So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him. But there was no sword in the hand of David.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:51 @ Therefore David ran and stood over the Philistine, took his sword and drew it out of its sheath and killed him, and cut off his head with it. And when the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:52 @ Now the men of Israel and Judah arose and shouted, and pursued the Philistines as far as the entrance of the valley and to the gates of Ekron. And the wounded of the Philistines fell along the road to Shaaraim, even as far as Gath and Ekron.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:53 @ Then the children of Israel returned from chasing the Philistines, and they plundered their tents.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:54 @ And David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem, but he put his armor in his tent.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:55 @ When Saul saw David going out against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the commander of the army, "Abner, whose son is this youth?" And Abner said, "As your soul lives, O king, I do not know."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:56 @ So the king said, "Inquire whose son this young man is."

nkjv@1Samuel:17:57 @ Then, as David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:17:58 @ And Saul said to him, "Whose son are you, young man?" So David answered, "I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:1 @ Now when he had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:2 @ Saul took him that day, and would not let him go home to his father's house anymore.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:3 @ Then Jonathan and David made a covenant, because he loved him as his own soul.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:4 @ And Jonathan took off the robe that was on him and gave it to David, with his armor, even to his sword and his bow and his belt.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:5 @ So David went out wherever Saul sent him, and behaved wisely. And Saul set him over the men of war, and he was accepted in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:6 @ Now it had happened as they were coming home, when David was returning from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women had come out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with joy, and with musical instruments.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:7 @ So the women sang as they danced, and said: "Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:8 @ Then Saul was very angry, and the saying displeased him; and he said, "They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed only thousands. Now what more can he have but the kingdom?"

nkjv@1Samuel:18:9 @ So Saul eyed David from that day forward.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:10 @ And it happened on the next day that the distressing spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied inside the house. So David played music with his hand, as at other times; but there was a spear in Saul's hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:11 @ And Saul cast the spear, for he said, "I will pin David to the wall!" But David escaped his presence twice.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:12 @ Now Saul was afraid of David, because the LORD was with him, but had departed from Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:13 @ Therefore Saul removed him from his presence, and made him his captain over a thousand; and he went out and came in before the people.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:14 @ And David behaved wisely in all his ways, and the LORD was with him.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:15 @ Therefore, when Saul saw that he behaved very wisely, he was afraid of him.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:16 @ But all Israel and Judah loved David, because he went out and came in before them.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:17 @ Then Saul said to David, "Here is my older daughter Merab; I will give her to you as a wife. Only be valiant for me, and fight the LORD's battles." For Saul thought, "Let my hand not be against him, but let the hand of the Philistines be against him."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:18 @ So David said to Saul, "Who am I, and what is my life or my father's family in Israel, that I should be son-in-law to the king?"

nkjv@1Samuel:18:19 @ But it happened at the time when Merab, Saul's daughter, should have been given to David, that she was given to Adriel the Meholathite as a wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:20 @ Now Michal, Saul's daughter, loved David. And they told Saul, and the thing pleased him.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:21 @ So Saul said, "I will give her to him, that she may be a snare to him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." Therefore Saul said to David a second time, "You shall be my son-in-law today."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:22 @ And Saul commanded his servants, "Communicate with David secretly, and say, "Look, the king has delight in you, and all his servants love you. Now therefore, become the king's son-in-law."'

nkjv@1Samuel:18:23 @ So Saul's servants spoke those words in the hearing of David. And David said, "Does it seem to you a light thing to be a king's son-in-law, seeing I am a poor and lightly esteemed man?"

nkjv@1Samuel:18:24 @ And the servants of Saul told him, saying, "In this manner David spoke."

nkjv@1Samuel:18:25 @ Then Saul said, "Thus you shall say to David: "The king does not desire any dowry but one hundred foreskins of the Philistines, to take vengeance on the king's enemies."' But Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:26 @ So when his servants told David these words, it pleased David well to become the king's son-in-law. Now the days had not expired;

nkjv@1Samuel:18:27 @ therefore David arose and went, he and his men, and killed two hundred men of the Philistines. And David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full count to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. Then Saul gave him Michal his daughter as a wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:28 @ Thus Saul saw and knew that the LORD was with David, and that Michal, Saul's daughter, loved him;

nkjv@1Samuel:18:29 @ and Saul was still more afraid of David. So Saul became David's enemy continually.

nkjv@1Samuel:18:30 @ Then the princes of the Philistines went out to war. And so it was, whenever they went out, that David behaved more wisely than all the servants of Saul, so that his name became highly esteemed.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:1 @ Now Saul spoke to Jonathan his son and to all his servants, that they should kill David; but Jonathan, Saul's son, delighted greatly in David.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:2 @ So Jonathan told David, saying, "My father Saul seeks to kill you. Therefore please be on your guard until morning, and stay in a secret place and hide.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:3 @ And I will go out and stand beside my father in the field where you are, and I will speak with my father about you. Then what I observe, I will tell you."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:4 @ Thus Jonathan spoke well of David to Saul his father, and said to him, "Let not the king sin against his servant, against David, because he has not sinned against you, and because his works have been very good toward you.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:5 @ For he took his life in his hands and killed the Philistine, and the LORD brought about a great deliverance for all Israel. You saw it and rejoiced. Why then will you sin against innocent blood, to kill David without a cause?"

nkjv@1Samuel:19:6 @ So Saul heeded the voice of Jonathan, and Saul swore, "As the LORD lives, he shall not be killed."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:7 @ Then Jonathan called David, and Jonathan told him all these things. So Jonathan brought David to Saul, and he was in his presence as in times past.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:8 @ And there was war again; and David went out and fought with the Philistines, and struck them with a mighty blow, and they fled from him.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:9 @ Now the distressing spirit from the LORD came upon Saul as he sat in his house with his spear in his hand. And David was playing music with his hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:10 @ Then Saul sought to pin David to the wall with the spear, but he slipped away from Saul's presence; and he drove the spear into the wall. So David fled and escaped that night.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:11 @ Saul also sent messengers to David's house to watch him and to kill him in the morning. And Michal, David's wife, told him, saying, "If you do not save your life tonight, tomorrow you will be killed."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:12 @ So Michal let David down through a window. And he went and fled and escaped.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:13 @ And Michal took an image and laid it in the bed, put a cover of goats' hair for his head, and covered it with clothes.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:14 @ So when Saul sent messengers to take David, she said, "He is sick."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:15 @ Then Saul sent the messengers back to see David, saying, "Bring him up to me in the bed, that I may kill him."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:16 @ And when the messengers had come in, there was the image in the bed, with a cover of goats' hair for his head.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:17 @ Then Saul said to Michal, "Why have you deceived me like this, and sent my enemy away, so that he has escaped?" And Michal answered Saul, "He said to me, "Let me go! Why should I kill you?"'

nkjv@1Samuel:19:18 @ So David fled and escaped, and went to Samuel at Ramah, and told him all that Saul had done to him. And he and Samuel went and stayed in Naioth.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:19 @ Now it was told Saul, saying, "Take note, David is at Naioth in Ramah!"

nkjv@1Samuel:19:20 @ Then Saul sent messengers to take David. And when they saw the group of prophets prophesying, and Samuel standing as leader over them, the Spirit of God came upon the messengers of Saul, and they also prophesied.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:21 @ And when Saul was told, he sent other messengers, and they prophesied likewise. Then Saul sent messengers again the third time, and they prophesied also.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:22 @ Then he also went to Ramah, and came to the great well that is at Sechu. So he asked, and said, "Where are Samuel and David?" And someone said, "Indeed they are at Naioth in Ramah."

nkjv@1Samuel:19:23 @ So he went there to Naioth in Ramah. Then the Spirit of God was upon him also, and he went on and prophesied until he came to Naioth in Ramah.

nkjv@1Samuel:19:24 @ And he also stripped off his clothes and prophesied before Samuel in like manner, and lay down naked all that day and all that night. Therefore they say, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:1 @ Then David fled from Naioth in Ramah, and went and said to Jonathan, "What have I done? What is my iniquity, and what is my sin before your father, that he seeks my life?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:2 @ So Jonathan said to him, "By no means! You shall not die! Indeed, my father will do nothing either great or small without first telling me. And why should my father hide this thing from me? It is not so!"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:3 @ Then David took an oath again, and said, "Your father certainly knows that I have found favor in your eyes, and he has said, "Do not let Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved.' But truly, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, there is but a step between me and death."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:4 @ So Jonathan said to David, "Whatever you yourself desire, I will do it for you."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:5 @ And David said to Jonathan, "Indeed tomorrow is the New Moon, and I should not fail to sit with the king to eat. But let me go, that I may hide in the field until the third day at evening.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:6 @ If your father misses me at all, then say, "David earnestly asked permission of me that he might run over to Bethlehem, his city, for there is a yearly sacrifice there for all the family.'

nkjv@1Samuel:20:7 @ If he says thus: "It is well,' your servant will be safe. But if he is very angry, be sure that evil is determined by him.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:8 @ Therefore you shall deal kindly with your servant, for you have brought your servant into a covenant of the LORD with you. Nevertheless, if there is iniquity in me, kill me yourself, for why should you bring me to your father?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:9 @ But Jonathan said, "Far be it from you! For if I knew certainly that evil was determined by my father to come upon you, then would I not tell you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:10 @ Then David said to Jonathan, "Who will tell me, or what if your father answers you roughly?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:11 @ And Jonathan said to David, "Come, let us go out into the field." So both of them went out into the field.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:12 @ Then Jonathan said to David: "The LORD God of Israel is witness! When I have sounded out my father sometime tomorrow, or the third day, and indeed there is good toward David, and I do not send to you and tell you,

nkjv@1Samuel:20:13 @ may the LORD do so and much more to Jonathan. But if it pleases my father to do you evil, then I will report it to you and send you away, that you may go in safety. And the LORD be with you as He has been with my father.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:14 @ And you shall not only show me the kindness of the LORD while I still live, that I may not die;

nkjv@1Samuel:20:15 @ but you shall not cut off your kindness from my house forever, no, not when the LORD has cut off every one of the enemies of David from the face of the earth."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:16 @ So Jonathan made a covenant with the house of David, saying, "Let the LORD require it at the hand of David's enemies."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:17 @ Now Jonathan again caused David to vow, because he loved him; for he loved him as he loved his own soul.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:18 @ Then Jonathan said to David, "Tomorrow is the New Moon; and you will be missed, because your seat will be empty.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:19 @ And when you have stayed three days, go down quickly and come to the place where you hid on the day of the deed; and remain by the stone Ezel.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:20 @ Then I will shoot three arrows to the side, as though I shot at a target;

nkjv@1Samuel:20:21 @ and there I will send a lad, saying, "Go, find the arrows.' If I expressly say to the lad, "Look, the arrows are on this side of you; get them and come'--then, as the LORD lives, there is safety for you and no harm.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:22 @ But if I say thus to the young man, "Look, the arrows are beyond you'--go your way, for the LORD has sent you away.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:23 @ And as for the matter which you and I have spoken of, indeed the LORD be between you and me forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:24 @ Then David hid in the field. And when the New Moon had come, the king sat down to eat the feast.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:25 @ Now the king sat on his seat, as at other times, on a seat by the wall. And Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, but David's place was empty.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:26 @ Nevertheless Saul did not say anything that day, for he thought, "Something has happened to him; he is unclean, surely he is unclean."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:27 @ And it happened the next day, the second day of the month, that David's place was empty. And Saul said to Jonathan his son, "Why has the son of Jesse not come to eat, either yesterday or today?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:28 @ So Jonathan answered Saul, "David earnestly asked permission of me to go to Bethlehem.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:29 @ And he said, "Please let me go, for our family has a sacrifice in the city, and my brother has commanded me to be there. And now, if I have found favor in your eyes, please let me get away and see my brothers.' Therefore he has not come to the king's table."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:30 @ Then Saul's anger was aroused against Jonathan, and he said to him, "You son of a perverse, rebellious woman! Do I not know that you have chosen the son of Jesse to your own shame and to the shame of your mother's nakedness?

nkjv@1Samuel:20:31 @ For as long as the son of Jesse lives on the earth, you shall not be established, nor your kingdom. Now therefore, send and bring him to me, for he shall surely die."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:32 @ And Jonathan answered Saul his father, and said to him, "Why should he be killed? What has he done?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:33 @ Then Saul cast a spear at him to kill him, by which Jonathan knew that it was determined by his father to kill David.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:34 @ So Jonathan arose from the table in fierce anger, and ate no food the second day of the month, for he was grieved for David, because his father had treated him shamefully.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:35 @ And so it was, in the morning, that Jonathan went out into the field at the time appointed with David, and a little lad was with him.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:36 @ Then he said to his lad, "Now run, find the arrows which I shoot." As the lad ran, he shot an arrow beyond him.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:37 @ When the lad had come to the place where the arrow was which Jonathan had shot, Jonathan cried out after the lad and said, "Is not the arrow beyond you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:20:38 @ And Jonathan cried out after the lad, "Make haste, hurry, do not delay!" So Jonathan's lad gathered up the arrows and came back to his master.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:39 @ But the lad did not know anything. Only Jonathan and David knew of the matter.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:40 @ Then Jonathan gave his weapons to his lad, and said to him, "Go, carry them to the city."

nkjv@1Samuel:20:41 @ As soon as the lad had gone, David arose from a place toward the south, fell on his face to the ground, and bowed down three times. And they kissed one another; and they wept together, but David more so.

nkjv@1Samuel:20:42 @ Then Jonathan said to David, "Go in peace, since we have both sworn in the name of the LORD, saying, "May the LORD be between you and me, and between your descendants and my descendants, forever."' So he arose and departed, and Jonathan went into the city.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:1 @ Now David came to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest. And Ahimelech was afraid when he met David, and said to him, "Why are you alone, and no one is with you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:21:2 @ So David said to Ahimelech the priest, "The king has ordered me on some business, and said to me, "Do not let anyone know anything about the business on which I send you, or what I have commanded you.' And I have directed my young men to such and such a place.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:3 @ Now therefore, what have you on hand? Give me five loaves of bread in my hand, or whatever can be found."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:4 @ And the priest answered David and said, "There is no common bread on hand; but there is holy bread, if the young men have at least kept themselves from women."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:5 @ Then David answered the priest, and said to him, "Truly, women have been kept from us about three days since I came out. And the vessels of the young men are holy, and the bread is in effect common, even though it was consecrated in the vessel this day."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:6 @ So the priest gave him holy bread; for there was no bread there but the showbread which had been taken from before the LORD, in order to put hot bread in its place on the day when it was taken away.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:7 @ Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before the LORD. And his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chief of the herdsmen who belonged to Saul.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:8 @ And David said to Ahimelech, "Is there not here on hand a spear or a sword? For I have brought neither my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:9 @ So the priest said, "The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, there it is, wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you will take that, take it. For there is no other except that one here." And David said, "There is none like it; give it to me."

nkjv@1Samuel:21:10 @ Then David arose and fled that day from before Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:11 @ And the servants of Achish said to him, "Is this not David the king of the land? Did they not sing of him to one another in dances, saying: "Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands'?"

nkjv@1Samuel:21:12 @ Now David took these words to heart, and was very much afraid of Achish the king of Gath.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:13 @ So he changed his behavior before them, pretended madness in their hands, scratched on the doors of the gate, and let his saliva fall down on his beard.

nkjv@1Samuel:21:14 @ Then Achish said to his servants, "Look, you see the man is insane. Why have you brought him to me?

nkjv@1Samuel:21:15 @ Have I need of madmen, that you have brought this fellow to play the madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?"

nkjv@1Samuel:22:1 @ David therefore departed from there and escaped to the cave of Adullam. So when his brothers and all his father's house heard it, they went down there to him.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:2 @ And everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered to him. So he became captain over them. And there were about four hundred men with him.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:3 @ Then David went from there to Mizpah of Moab; and he said to the king of Moab, "Please let my father and mother come here with you, till I know what God will do for me."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:4 @ So he brought them before the king of Moab, and they dwelt with him all the time that David was in the stronghold.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:5 @ Now the prophet Gad said to David, "Do not stay in the stronghold; depart, and go to the land of Judah." So David departed and went into the forest of Hereth.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:6 @ When Saul heard that David and the men who were with him had been discovered--now Saul was staying in Gibeah under a tamarisk tree in Ramah, with his spear in his hand, and all his servants standing about him--

nkjv@1Samuel:22:7 @ then Saul said to his servants who stood about him, "Hear now, you Benjamites! Will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundreds?

nkjv@1Samuel:22:8 @ All of you have conspired against me, and there is no one who reveals to me that my son has made a covenant with the son of Jesse; and there is not one of you who is sorry for me or reveals to me that my son has stirred up my servant against me, to lie in wait, as it is this day."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:9 @ Then answered Doeg the Edomite, who was set over the servants of Saul, and said, "I saw the son of Jesse going to Nob, to Ahimelech the son of Ahitub.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:10 @ And he inquired of the LORD for him, gave him provisions, and gave him the sword of Goliath the Philistine."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:11 @ So the king sent to call Ahimelech the priest, the son of Ahitub, and all his father's house, the priests who were in Nob. And they all came to the king.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:12 @ And Saul said, "Hear now, son of Ahitub!" He answered, "Here I am, my lord."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:13 @ Then Saul said to him, "Why have you conspired against me, you and the son of Jesse, in that you have given him bread and a sword, and have inquired of God for him, that he should rise against me, to lie in wait, as it is this day?"

nkjv@1Samuel:22:14 @ So Ahimelech answered the king and said, "And who among all your servants is as faithful as David, who is the king's son-in-law, who goes at your bidding, and is honorable in your house?

nkjv@1Samuel:22:15 @ Did I then begin to inquire of God for him? Far be it from me! Let not the king impute anything to his servant, or to any in the house of my father. For your servant knew nothing of all this, little or much."

nkjv@1Samuel:22:16 @ And the king said, "You shall surely die, Ahimelech, you and all your father's house!"

nkjv@1Samuel:22:17 @ Then the king said to the guards who stood about him, "Turn and kill the priests of the LORD, because their hand also is with David, and because they knew when he fled and did not tell it to me." But the servants of the king would not lift their hands to strike the priests of the LORD.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:18 @ And the king said to Doeg, "You turn and kill the priests!" So Doeg the Edomite turned and struck the priests, and killed on that day eighty-five men who wore a linen ephod.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:19 @ Also Nob, the city of the priests, he struck with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and nursing infants, oxen and donkeys and sheep--with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:20 @ Now one of the sons of Ahimelech the son of Ahitub, named Abiathar, escaped and fled after David.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:21 @ And Abiathar told David that Saul had killed the LORD's priests.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:22 @ So David said to Abiathar, "I knew that day, when Doeg the Edomite was there, that he would surely tell Saul. I have caused the death of all the persons of your father's house.

nkjv@1Samuel:22:23 @ Stay with me; do not fear. For he who seeks my life seeks your life, but with me you shall be safe."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:1 @ Then they told David, saying, "Look, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah, and they are robbing the threshing floors."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:2 @ Therefore David inquired of the LORD, saying, "Shall I go and attack these Philistines?" And the LORD said to David, "Go and attack the Philistines, and save Keilah."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:3 @ But David's men said to him, "Look, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the armies of the Philistines?"

nkjv@1Samuel:23:4 @ Then David inquired of the LORD once again. And the LORD answered him and said, "Arise, go down to Keilah. For I will deliver the Philistines into your hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:5 @ And David and his men went to Keilah and fought with the Philistines, struck them with a mighty blow, and took away their livestock. So David saved the inhabitants of Keilah.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:6 @ Now it happened, when Abiathar the son of Ahimelech fled to David at Keilah, that he went down with an ephod in his hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:7 @ And Saul was told that David had gone to Keilah. So Saul said, "God has delivered him into my hand, for he has shut himself in by entering a town that has gates and bars."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:8 @ Then Saul called all the people together for war, to go down to Keilah to besiege David and his men.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:9 @ When David knew that Saul plotted evil against him, he said to Abiathar the priest, "Bring the ephod here."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:10 @ Then David said, "O LORD God of Israel, Your servant has certainly heard that Saul seeks to come to Keilah to destroy the city for my sake.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:11 @ Will the men of Keilah deliver me into his hand? Will Saul come down, as Your servant has heard? O LORD God of Israel, I pray, tell Your servant." And the LORD said, "He will come down."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:12 @ Then David said, "Will the men of Keilah deliver me and my men into the hand of Saul?" And the LORD said, "They will deliver you."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:13 @ So David and his men, about six hundred, arose and departed from Keilah and went wherever they could go. Then it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keilah; so he halted the expedition.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:14 @ And David stayed in strongholds in the wilderness, and remained in the mountains in the Wilderness of Ziph. Saul sought him every day, but God did not deliver him into his hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:15 @ So David saw that Saul had come out to seek his life. And David was in the Wilderness of Ziph in a forest.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:16 @ Then Jonathan, Saul's son, arose and went to David in the woods and strengthened his hand in God.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:17 @ And he said to him, "Do not fear, for the hand of Saul my father shall not find you. You shall be king over Israel, and I shall be next to you. Even my father Saul knows that."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:18 @ So the two of them made a covenant before the LORD. And David stayed in the woods, and Jonathan went to his own house.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:19 @ Then the Ziphites came up to Saul at Gibeah, saying, "Is David not hiding with us in strongholds in the woods, in the hill of Hachilah, which is on the south of Jeshimon?

nkjv@1Samuel:23:20 @ Now therefore, O king, come down according to all the desire of your soul to come down; and our part shall be to deliver him into the king's hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:21 @ And Saul said, "Blessed are you of the LORD, for you have compassion on me.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:22 @ Please go and find out for sure, and see the place where his hideout is, and who has seen him there. For I am told he is very crafty.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:23 @ See therefore, and take knowledge of all the lurking places where he hides; and come back to me with certainty, and I will go with you. And it shall be, if he is in the land, that I will search for him throughout all the clans of Judah."

nkjv@1Samuel:23:24 @ So they arose and went to Ziph before Saul. But David and his men were in the Wilderness of Maon, in the plain on the south of Jeshimon.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:25 @ When Saul and his men went to seek him, they told David. Therefore he went down to the rock, and stayed in the Wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard that, he pursued David in the Wilderness of Maon.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:26 @ Then Saul went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men on the other side of the mountain. So David made haste to get away from Saul, for Saul and his men were encircling David and his men to take them.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:27 @ But a messenger came to Saul, saying, "Hurry and come, for the Philistines have invaded the land!"

nkjv@1Samuel:23:28 @ Therefore Saul returned from pursuing David, and went against the Philistines; so they called that place the Rock of Escape.

nkjv@1Samuel:23:29 @ Then David went up from there and dwelt in strongholds at En Gedi.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:1 @ Now it happened, when Saul had returned from following the Philistines, that it was told him, saying, "Take note! David is in the Wilderness of En Gedi."

nkjv@1Samuel:24:2 @ Then Saul took three thousand chosen men from all Israel, and went to seek David and his men on the Rocks of the Wild Goats.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:3 @ So he came to the sheepfolds by the road, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to attend to his needs. (David and his men were staying in the recesses of the cave.)

nkjv@1Samuel:24:4 @ Then the men of David said to him, "This is the day of which the LORD said to you, "Behold, I will deliver your enemy into your hand, that you may do to him as it seems good to you."' And David arose and secretly cut off a corner of Saul's robe.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:5 @ Now it happened afterward that David's heart troubled him because he had cut Saul's robe.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:6 @ And he said to his men, "The LORD forbid that I should do this thing to my master, the LORD's anointed, to stretch out my hand against him, seeing he is the anointed of the LORD."

nkjv@1Samuel:24:7 @ So David restrained his servants with these words, and did not allow them to rise against Saul. And Saul got up from the cave and went on his way.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:8 @ David also arose afterward, went out of the cave, and called out to Saul, saying, "My lord the king!" And when Saul looked behind him, David stooped with his face to the earth, and bowed down.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:9 @ And David said to Saul: "Why do you listen to the words of men who say, "Indeed David seeks your harm'?

nkjv@1Samuel:24:10 @ Look, this day your eyes have seen that the LORD delivered you today into my hand in the cave, and someone urged me to kill you. But my eye spared you, and I said, "I will not stretch out my hand against my lord, for he is the LORD's anointed.'

nkjv@1Samuel:24:11 @ Moreover, my father, see! Yes, see the corner of your robe in my hand! For in that I cut off the corner of your robe, and did not kill you, know and see that there is neither evil nor rebellion in my hand, and I have not sinned against you. Yet you hunt my life to take it.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:12 @ Let the LORD judge between you and me, and let the LORD avenge me on you. But my hand shall not be against you.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:13 @ As the proverb of the ancients says, "Wickedness proceeds from the wicked.' But my hand shall not be against you.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:14 @ After whom has the king of Israel come out? Whom do you pursue? A dead dog? A flea?

nkjv@1Samuel:24:15 @ Therefore let the LORD be judge, and judge between you and me, and see and plead my case, and deliver me out of your hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:24:16 @ So it was, when David had finished speaking these words to Saul, that Saul said, "Is this your voice, my son David?" And Saul lifted up his voice and wept.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:17 @ Then he said to David: "You are more righteous than I; for you have rewarded me with good, whereas I have rewarded you with evil.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:18 @ And you have shown this day how you have dealt well with me; for when the LORD delivered me into your hand, you did not kill me.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:19 @ For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him get away safely? Therefore may the LORD reward you with good for what you have done to me this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:20 @ And now I know indeed that you shall surely be king, and that the kingdom of Israel shall be established in your hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:24:21 @ Therefore swear now to me by the LORD that you will not cut off my descendants after me, and that you will not destroy my name from my father's house."

nkjv@1Samuel:24:22 @ So David swore to Saul. And Saul went home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:1 @ Then Samuel died; and the Israelites gathered together and lamented for him, and buried him at his home in Ramah. And David arose and went down to the Wilderness of Paran.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:2 @ Now there was a man in Maon whose business was in Carmel, and the man was very rich. He had three thousand sheep and a thousand goats. And he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:3 @ The name of the man was Nabal, and the name of his wife Abigail. And she was a woman of good understanding and beautiful appearance; but the man was harsh and evil in his doings. He was of the house of Caleb.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:4 @ When David heard in the wilderness that Nabal was shearing his sheep,

nkjv@1Samuel:25:5 @ David sent ten young men; and David said to the young men, "Go up to Carmel, go to Nabal, and greet him in my name.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:6 @ And thus you shall say to him who lives in prosperity: "Peace be to you, peace to your house, and peace to all that you have!

nkjv@1Samuel:25:7 @ Now I have heard that you have shearers. Your shepherds were with us, and we did not hurt them, nor was there anything missing from them all the while they were in Carmel.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:8 @ Ask your young men, and they will tell you. Therefore let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we come on a feast day. Please give whatever comes to your hand to your servants and to your son David."'

nkjv@1Samuel:25:9 @ So when David's young men came, they spoke to Nabal according to all these words in the name of David, and waited.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:10 @ Then Nabal answered David's servants, and said, "Who is David, and who is the son of Jesse? There are many servants nowadays who break away each one from his master.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:11 @ Shall I then take my bread and my water and my meat that I have killed for my shearers, and give it to men when I do not know where they are from?"

nkjv@1Samuel:25:12 @ So David's young men turned on their heels and went back; and they came and told him all these words.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:13 @ Then David said to his men, "Every man gird on his sword." So every man girded on his sword, and David also girded on his sword. And about four hundred men went with David, and two hundred stayed with the supplies.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:14 @ Now one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, "Look, David sent messengers from the wilderness to greet our master; and he reviled them.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:15 @ But the men were very good to us, and we were not hurt, nor did we miss anything as long as we accompanied them, when we were in the fields.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:16 @ They were a wall to us both by night and day, all the time we were with them keeping the sheep.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:17 @ Now therefore, know and consider what you will do, for harm is determined against our master and against all his household. For he is such a scoundrel that one cannot speak to him."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:18 @ Then Abigail made haste and took two hundred loaves of bread, two skins of wine, five sheep already dressed, five seahs of roasted grain, one hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs, and loaded them on donkeys.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:19 @ And she said to her servants, "Go on before me; see, I am coming after you." But she did not tell her husband Nabal.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:20 @ So it was, as she rode on the donkey, that she went down under cover of the hill; and there were David and his men, coming down toward her, and she met them.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:21 @ Now David had said, "Surely in vain I have protected all that this fellow has in the wilderness, so that nothing was missed of all that belongs to him. And he has repaid me evil for good.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:22 @ May God do so, and more also, to the enemies of David, if I leave one male of all who belong to him by morning light."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:23 @ Now when Abigail saw David, she dismounted quickly from the donkey, fell on her face before David, and bowed down to the ground.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:24 @ So she fell at his feet and said: "On me, my lord, on me let this iniquity be! And please let your maidservant speak in your ears, and hear the words of your maidservant.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:25 @ Please, let not my lord regard this scoundrel Nabal. For as his name is, so is he: Nabal is his name, and folly is with him! But I, your maidservant, did not see the young men of my lord whom you sent.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:26 @ Now therefore, my lord, as the LORD lives and as your soul lives, since the LORD has held you back from coming to bloodshed and from avenging yourself with your own hand, now then, let your enemies and those who seek harm for my lord be as Nabal.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:27 @ And now this present which your maidservant has brought to my lord, let it be given to the young men who follow my lord.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:28 @ Please forgive the trespass of your maidservant. For the LORD will certainly make for my lord an enduring house, because my lord fights the battles of the LORD, and evil is not found in you throughout your days.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:29 @ Yet a man has risen to pursue you and seek your life, but the life of my lord shall be bound in the bundle of the living with the LORD your God; and the lives of your enemies He shall sling out, as from the pocket of a sling.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:30 @ And it shall come to pass, when the LORD has done for my lord according to all the good that He has spoken concerning you, and has appointed you ruler over Israel,

nkjv@1Samuel:25:31 @ that this will be no grief to you, nor offense of heart to my lord, either that you have shed blood without cause, or that my lord has avenged himself. But when the LORD has dealt well with my lord, then remember your maidservant."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:32 @ Then David said to Abigail: "Blessed is the LORD God of Israel, who sent you this day to meet me!

nkjv@1Samuel:25:33 @ And blessed is your advice and blessed are you, because you have kept me this day from coming to bloodshed and from avenging myself with my own hand.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:34 @ For indeed, as the LORD God of Israel lives, who has kept me back from hurting you, unless you had hurried and come to meet me, surely by morning light no males would have been left to Nabal!"

nkjv@1Samuel:25:35 @ So David received from her hand what she had brought him, and said to her, "Go up in peace to your house. See, I have heeded your voice and respected your person."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:36 @ Now Abigail went to Nabal, and there he was, holding a feast in his house, like the feast of a king. And Nabal's heart was merry within him, for he was very drunk; therefore she told him nothing, little or much, until morning light.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:37 @ So it was, in the morning, when the wine had gone from Nabal, and his wife had told him these things, that his heart died within him, and he became like a stone.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:38 @ Then it happened, after about ten days, that the LORD struck Nabal, and he died.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:39 @ So when David heard that Nabal was dead, he said, "Blessed be the LORD, who has pleaded the cause of my reproach from the hand of Nabal, and has kept His servant from evil! For the LORD has returned the wickedness of Nabal on his own head." And David sent and proposed to Abigail, to take her as his wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:40 @ When the servants of David had come to Abigail at Carmel, they spoke to her saying, "David sent us to you, to ask you to become his wife."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:41 @ Then she arose, bowed her face to the earth, and said, "Here is your maidservant, a servant to wash the feet of the servants of my lord."

nkjv@1Samuel:25:42 @ So Abigail rose in haste and rode on a donkey, attended by five of her maidens; and she followed the messengers of David, and became his wife.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:43 @ David also took Ahinoam of Jezreel, and so both of them were his wives.

nkjv@1Samuel:25:44 @ But Saul had given Michal his daughter, David's wife, to Palti the son of Laish, who was from Gallim.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:1 @ Now the Ziphites came to Saul at Gibeah, saying, "Is David not hiding in the hill of Hachilah, opposite Jeshimon?"

nkjv@1Samuel:26:2 @ Then Saul arose and went down to the Wilderness of Ziph, having three thousand chosen men of Israel with him, to seek David in the Wilderness of Ziph.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:3 @ And Saul encamped in the hill of Hachilah, which is opposite Jeshimon, by the road. But David stayed in the wilderness, and he saw that Saul came after him into the wilderness.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:4 @ David therefore sent out spies, and understood that Saul had indeed come.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:5 @ So David arose and came to the place where Saul had encamped. And David saw the place where Saul lay, and Abner the son of Ner, the commander of his army. Now Saul lay within the camp, with the people encamped all around him.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:6 @ Then David answered, and said to Ahimelech the Hittite and to Abishai the son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, saying, "Who will go down with me to Saul in the camp?" And Abishai said, "I will go down with you."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:7 @ So David and Abishai came to the people by night; and there Saul lay sleeping within the camp, with his spear stuck in the ground by his head. And Abner and the people lay all around him.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:8 @ Then Abishai said to David, "God has delivered your enemy into your hand this day. Now therefore, please, let me strike him at once with the spear, right to the earth; and I will not have to strike him a second time!"

nkjv@1Samuel:26:9 @ But David said to Abishai, "Do not destroy him; for who can stretch out his hand against the LORD's anointed, and be guiltless?"

nkjv@1Samuel:26:10 @ David said furthermore, "As the LORD lives, the LORD shall strike him, or his day shall come to die, or he shall go out to battle and perish.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:11 @ The LORD forbid that I should stretch out my hand against the LORD's anointed. But please, take now the spear and the jug of water that are by his head, and let us go."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:12 @ So David took the spear and the jug of water by Saul's head, and they got away; and no man saw or knew it or awoke. For they were all asleep, because a deep sleep from the LORD had fallen on them.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:13 @ Now David went over to the other side, and stood on the top of a hill afar off, a great distance being between them.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:14 @ And David called out to the people and to Abner the son of Ner, saying, "Do you not answer, Abner?" Then Abner answered and said, "Who are you, calling out to the king?"

nkjv@1Samuel:26:15 @ So David said to Abner, "Are you not a man? And who is like you in Israel? Why then have you not guarded your lord the king? For one of the people came in to destroy your lord the king.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:16 @ This thing that you have done is not good. As the LORD lives, you deserve to die, because you have not guarded your master, the LORD's anointed. And now see where the king's spear is, and the jug of water that was by his head."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:17 @ Then Saul knew David's voice, and said, "Is that your voice, my son David?" David said, "It is my voice, my lord, O king."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:18 @ And he said, "Why does my lord thus pursue his servant? For what have I done, or what evil is in my hand?

nkjv@1Samuel:26:19 @ Now therefore, please, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant: If the LORD has stirred you up against me, let Him accept an offering. But if it is the children of men, may they be cursed before the LORD, for they have driven me out this day from sharing in the inheritance of the LORD, saying, "Go, serve other gods.'

nkjv@1Samuel:26:20 @ So now, do not let my blood fall to the earth before the face of the LORD. For the king of Israel has come out to seek a flea, as when one hunts a partridge in the mountains."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:21 @ Then Saul said, "I have sinned. Return, my son David. For I will harm you no more, because my life was precious in your eyes this day. Indeed I have played the fool and erred exceedingly."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:22 @ And David answered and said, "Here is the king's spear. Let one of the young men come over and get it.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:23 @ May the LORD repay every man for his righteousness and his faithfulness; for the LORD delivered you into my hand today, but I would not stretch out my hand against the LORD's anointed.

nkjv@1Samuel:26:24 @ And indeed, as your life was valued much this day in my eyes, so let my life be valued much in the eyes of the LORD, and let Him deliver me out of all tribulation."

nkjv@1Samuel:26:25 @ Then Saul said to David, "May you be blessed, my son David! You shall both do great things and also still prevail." So David went on his way, and Saul returned to his place.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:1 @ And David said in his heart, "Now I shall perish someday by the hand of Saul. There is nothing better for me than that I should speedily escape to the land of the Philistines; and Saul will despair of me, to seek me anymore in any part of Israel. So I shall escape out of his hand."

nkjv@1Samuel:27:2 @ Then David arose and went over with the six hundred men who were with him to Achish the son of Maoch, king of Gath.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:3 @ So David dwelt with Achish at Gath, he and his men, each man with his household, and David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the Carmelitess, Nabal's widow.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:4 @ And it was told Saul that David had fled to Gath; so he sought him no more.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:5 @ Then David said to Achish, "If I have now found favor in your eyes, let them give me a place in some town in the country, that I may dwell there. For why should your servant dwell in the royal city with you?"

nkjv@1Samuel:27:6 @ So Achish gave him Ziklag that day. Therefore Ziklag has belonged to the kings of Judah to this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:7 @ Now the time that David dwelt in the country of the Philistines was one full year and four months.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:8 @ And David and his men went up and raided the Geshurites, the Girzites, and the Amalekites. For those nations were the inhabitants of the land from of old, as you go to Shur, even as far as the land of Egypt.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:9 @ Whenever David attacked the land, he left neither man nor woman alive, but took away the sheep, the oxen, the donkeys, the camels, and the apparel, and returned and came to Achish.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:10 @ Then Achish would say, "Where have you made a raid today?" And David would say, "Against the southern area of Judah, or against the southern area of the Jerahmeelites, or against the southern area of the Kenites."

nkjv@1Samuel:27:11 @ David would save neither man nor woman alive, to bring news to Gath, saying, "Lest they should inform on us, saying, "Thus David did."' And thus was his behavior all the time he dwelt in the country of the Philistines.

nkjv@1Samuel:27:12 @ So Achish believed David, saying, "He has made his people Israel utterly abhor him; therefore he will be my servant forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:1 @ Now it happened in those days that the Philistines gathered their armies together for war, to fight with Israel. And Achish said to David, "You assuredly know that you will go out with me to battle, you and your men."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:2 @ So David said to Achish, "Surely you know what your servant can do." And Achish said to David, "Therefore I will make you one of my chief guardians forever."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:3 @ Now Samuel had died, and all Israel had lamented for him and buried him in Ramah, in his own city. And Saul had put the mediums and the spiritists out of the land.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:4 @ Then the Philistines gathered together, and came and encamped at Shunem. So Saul gathered all Israel together, and they encamped at Gilboa.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:5 @ When Saul saw the army of the Philistines, he was afraid, and his heart trembled greatly.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:6 @ And when Saul inquired of the LORD, the LORD did not answer him, either by dreams or by Urim or by the prophets.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:7 @ Then Saul said to his servants, "Find me a woman who is a medium, that I may go to her and inquire of her." And his servants said to him, "In fact, there is a woman who is a medium at En Dor."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:8 @ So Saul disguised himself and put on other clothes, and he went, and two men with him; and they came to the woman by night. And he said, "Please conduct a s^eaance for me, and bring up for me the one I shall name to you."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:9 @ Then the woman said to him, "Look, you know what Saul has done, how he has cut off the mediums and the spiritists from the land. Why then do you lay a snare for my life, to cause me to die?"

nkjv@1Samuel:28:10 @ And Saul swore to her by the LORD, saying, "As the LORD lives, no punishment shall come upon you for this thing."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:11 @ Then the woman said, "Whom shall I bring up for you?" And he said, "Bring up Samuel for me."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:12 @ When the woman saw Samuel, she cried out with a loud voice. And the woman spoke to Saul, saying, "Why have you deceived me? For you are Saul!"

nkjv@1Samuel:28:13 @ And the king said to her, "Do not be afraid. What did you see?" And the woman said to Saul, "I saw a spirit ascending out of the earth."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:14 @ So he said to her, "What is his form?" And she said, "An old man is coming up, and he is covered with a mantle." And Saul perceived that it was Samuel, and he stooped with his face to the ground and bowed down.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:15 @ Now Samuel said to Saul, "Why have you disturbed me by bringing me up?" And Saul answered, "I am deeply distressed; for the Philistines make war against me, and God has departed from me and does not answer me anymore, neither by prophets nor by dreams. Therefore I have called you, that you may reveal to me what I should do."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:16 @ Then Samuel said: "So why do you ask me, seeing the LORD has departed from you and has become your enemy?

nkjv@1Samuel:28:17 @ And the LORD has done for Himself as He spoke by me. For the LORD has torn the kingdom out of your hand and given it to your neighbor, David.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:18 @ Because you did not obey the voice of the LORD nor execute His fierce wrath upon Amalek, therefore the LORD has done this thing to you this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:19 @ Moreover the LORD will also deliver Israel with you into the hand of the Philistines. And tomorrow you and your sons will be with me. The LORD will also deliver the army of Israel into the hand of the Philistines."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:20 @ Immediately Saul fell full length on the ground, and was dreadfully afraid because of the words of Samuel. And there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no food all day or all night.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:21 @ And the woman came to Saul and saw that he was severely troubled, and said to him, "Look, your maidservant has obeyed your voice, and I have put my life in my hands and heeded the words which you spoke to me.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:22 @ Now therefore, please, heed also the voice of your maidservant, and let me set a piece of bread before you; and eat, that you may have strength when you go on your way."

nkjv@1Samuel:28:23 @ But he refused and said, "I will not eat." So his servants, together with the woman, urged him; and he heeded their voice. Then he arose from the ground and sat on the bed.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:24 @ Now the woman had a fatted calf in the house, and she hastened to kill it. And she took flour and kneaded it, and baked unleavened bread from it.

nkjv@1Samuel:28:25 @ So she brought it before Saul and his servants, and they ate. Then they rose and went away that night.

nkjv@1Samuel:29:1 @ Then the Philistines gathered together all their armies at Aphek, and the Israelites encamped by a fountain which is in Jezreel.

nkjv@1Samuel:29:2 @ And the lords of the Philistines passed in review by hundreds and by thousands, but David and his men passed in review at the rear with Achish.

nkjv@1Samuel:29:3 @ Then the princes of the Philistines said, "What are these Hebrews doing here?" And Achish said to the princes of the Philistines, "Is this not David, the servant of Saul king of Israel, who has been with me these days, or these years? And to this day I have found no fault in him since he defected to me."

nkjv@1Samuel:29:4 @ But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him; so the princes of the Philistines said to him, "Make this fellow return, that he may go back to the place which you have appointed for him, and do not let him go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become our adversary. For with what could he reconcile himself to his master, if not with the heads of these men?

nkjv@1Samuel:29:5 @ Is this not David, of whom they sang to one another in dances, saying: "Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands'?"

nkjv@1Samuel:29:6 @ Then Achish called David and said to him, "Surely, as the LORD lives, you have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the army is good in my sight. For to this day I have not found evil in you since the day of your coming to me. Nevertheless the lords do not favor you.

nkjv@1Samuel:29:7 @ Therefore return now, and go in peace, that you may not displease the lords of the Philistines."

nkjv@1Samuel:29:8 @ So David said to Achish, "But what have I done? And to this day what have you found in your servant as long as I have been with you, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?"

nkjv@1Samuel:29:9 @ Then Achish answered and said to David, "I know that you are as good in my sight as an angel of God; nevertheless the princes of the Philistines have said, "He shall not go up with us to the battle.'

nkjv@1Samuel:29:10 @ Now therefore, rise early in the morning with your master's servants who have come with you. And as soon as you are up early in the morning and have light, depart."

nkjv@1Samuel:29:11 @ So David and his men rose early to depart in the morning, to return to the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:1 @ Now it happened, when David and his men came to Ziklag, on the third day, that the Amalekites had invaded the South and Ziklag, attacked Ziklag and burned it with fire,

nkjv@1Samuel:30:2 @ and had taken captive the women and those who were there, from small to great; they did not kill anyone, but carried them away and went their way.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:3 @ So David and his men came to the city, and there it was, burned with fire; and their wives, their sons, and their daughters had been taken captive.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:4 @ Then David and the people who were with him lifted up their voices and wept, until they had no more power to weep.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:5 @ And David's two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite, had been taken captive.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:6 @ Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the LORD his God.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:7 @ Then David said to Abiathar the priest, Ahimelech's son, "Please bring the ephod here to me." And Abiathar brought the ephod to David.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:8 @ So David inquired of the LORD, saying, "Shall I pursue this troop? Shall I overtake them?" And He answered him, "Pursue, for you shall surely overtake them and without fail recover all."

nkjv@1Samuel:30:9 @ So David went, he and the six hundred men who were with him, and came to the Brook Besor, where those stayed who were left behind.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:10 @ But David pursued, he and four hundred men; for two hundred stayed behind, who were so weary that they could not cross the Brook Besor.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:11 @ Then they found an Egyptian in the field, and brought him to David; and they gave him bread and he ate, and they let him drink water.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:12 @ And they gave him a piece of a cake of figs and two clusters of raisins. So when he had eaten, his strength came back to him; for he had eaten no bread nor drunk water for three days and three nights.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:13 @ Then David said to him, "To whom do you belong, and where are you from?" And he said, "I am a young man from Egypt, servant of an Amalekite; and my master left me behind, because three days ago I fell sick.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:14 @ We made an invasion of the southern area of the Cherethites, in the territory which belongs to Judah, and of the southern area of Caleb; and we burned Ziklag with fire."

nkjv@1Samuel:30:15 @ And David said to him, "Can you take me down to this troop?" So he said, "Swear to me by God that you will neither kill me nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will take you down to this troop."

nkjv@1Samuel:30:16 @ And when he had brought him down, there they were, spread out over all the land, eating and drinking and dancing, because of all the great spoil which they had taken from the land of the Philistines and from the land of Judah.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:17 @ Then David attacked them from twilight until the evening of the next day. Not a man of them escaped, except four hundred young men who rode on camels and fled.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:18 @ So David recovered all that the Amalekites had carried away, and David rescued his two wives.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:19 @ And nothing of theirs was lacking, either small or great, sons or daughters, spoil or anything which they had taken from them; David recovered all.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:20 @ Then David took all the flocks and herds they had driven before those other livestock, and said, "This is David's spoil."

nkjv@1Samuel:30:21 @ Now David came to the two hundred men who had been so weary that they could not follow David, whom they also had made to stay at the Brook Besor. So they went out to meet David and to meet the people who were with him. And when David came near the people, he greeted them.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:22 @ Then all the wicked and worthless men of those who went with David answered and said, "Because they did not go with us, we will not give them any of the spoil that we have recovered, except for every man's wife and children, that they may lead them away and depart."

nkjv@1Samuel:30:23 @ But David said, "My brethren, you shall not do so with what the LORD has given us, who has preserved us and delivered into our hand the troop that came against us.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:24 @ For who will heed you in this matter? But as his part is who goes down to the battle, so shall his part be who stays by the supplies; they shall share alike."

nkjv@1Samuel:30:25 @ So it was, from that day forward; he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel to this day.

nkjv@1Samuel:30:26 @ Now when David came to Ziklag, he sent some of the spoil to the elders of Judah, to his friends, saying, "Here is a present for you from the spoil of the enemies of the LORD"--

nkjv@1Samuel:30:27 @ to those who were in Bethel, those who were in Ramoth of the South, those who were in Jattir,

nkjv@1Samuel:30:28 @ those who were in Aroer, those who were in Siphmoth, those who were in Eshtemoa,

nkjv@1Samuel:30:29 @ those who were in Rachal, those who were in the cities of the Jerahmeelites, those who were in the cities of the Kenites,

nkjv@1Samuel:30:30 @ those who were in Hormah, those who were in Chorashan, those who were in Athach,

nkjv@1Samuel:30:31 @ those who were in Hebron, and to all the places where David himself and his men were accustomed to rove.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:1 @ Now the Philistines fought against Israel; and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell slain on Mount Gilboa.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:2 @ Then the Philistines followed hard after Saul and his sons. And the Philistines killed Jonathan, Abinadab, and Malchishua, Saul's sons.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:3 @ The battle became fierce against Saul. The archers hit him, and he was severely wounded by the archers.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:4 @ Then Saul said to his armorbearer, "Draw your sword, and thrust me through with it, lest these uncircumcised men come and thrust me through and abuse me." But his armorbearer would not, for he was greatly afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword and fell on it.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:5 @ And when his armorbearer saw that Saul was dead, he also fell on his sword, and died with him.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:6 @ So Saul, his three sons, his armorbearer, and all his men died together that same day.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:7 @ And when the men of Israel who were on the other side of the valley, and those who were on the other side of the Jordan, saw that the men of Israel had fled and that Saul and his sons were dead, they forsook the cities and fled; and the Philistines came and dwelt in them.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:8 @ So it happened the next day, when the Philistines came to strip the slain, that they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:9 @ And they cut off his head and stripped off his armor, and sent word throughout the land of the Philistines, to proclaim it in the temple of their idols and among the people.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:10 @ Then they put his armor in the temple of the Ashtoreths, and they fastened his body to the wall of Beth Shan.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:11 @ Now when the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead heard what the Philistines had done to Saul,

nkjv@1Samuel:31:12 @ all the valiant men arose and traveled all night, and took the body of Saul and the bodies of his sons from the wall of Beth Shan; and they came to Jabesh and burned them there.

nkjv@1Samuel:31:13 @ Then they took their bones and buried them under the tamarisk tree at Jabesh, and fasted seven days.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:1 @ Now it came to pass after the death of Saul, when David had returned from the slaughter of the Amalekites, and David had stayed two days in Ziklag,

nkjv@2Samuel:1:2 @ on the third day, behold, it happened that a man came from Saul's camp with his clothes torn and dust on his head. So it was, when he came to David, that he fell to the ground and prostrated himself.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:3 @ And David said to him, "Where have you come from?" So he said to him, "I have escaped from the camp of Israel."

nkjv@2Samuel:1:4 @ Then David said to him, "How did the matter go? Please tell me." And he answered, "The people have fled from the battle, many of the people are fallen and dead, and Saul and Jonathan his son are dead also."

nkjv@2Samuel:1:5 @ So David said to the young man who told him, "How do you know that Saul and Jonathan his son are dead?"

nkjv@2Samuel:1:6 @ Then the young man who told him said, "As I happened by chance to be on Mount Gilboa, there was Saul, leaning on his spear; and indeed the chariots and horsemen followed hard after him.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:7 @ Now when he looked behind him, he saw me and called to me. And I answered, "Here I am.'

nkjv@2Samuel:1:8 @ And he said to me, "Who are you?' So I answered him, "I am an Amalekite.'

nkjv@2Samuel:1:9 @ He said to me again, "Please stand over me and kill me, for anguish has come upon me, but my life still remains in me.'

nkjv@2Samuel:1:10 @ So I stood over him and killed him, because I was sure that he could not live after he had fallen. And I took the crown that was on his head and the bracelet that was on his arm, and have brought them here to my lord."

nkjv@2Samuel:1:11 @ Therefore David took hold of his own clothes and tore them, and so did all the men who were with him.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:12 @ And they mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his son, for the people of the LORD and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:13 @ Then David said to the young man who told him, "Where are you from?" And he answered, "I am the son of an alien, an Amalekite."

nkjv@2Samuel:1:14 @ So David said to him, "How was it you were not afraid to put forth your hand to destroy the LORD's anointed?"

nkjv@2Samuel:1:15 @ Then David called one of the young men and said, "Go near, and execute him!" And he struck him so that he died.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:16 @ So David said to him, "Your blood is on your own head, for your own mouth has testified against you, saying, "I have killed the LORD's anointed."'

nkjv@2Samuel:1:17 @ Then David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son,

nkjv@2Samuel:1:18 @ and he told them to teach the children of Judah the Song of the Bow; indeed it is written in the Book of Jasher:

nkjv@2Samuel:1:19 @ "The beauty of Israel is slain on your high places! How the mighty have fallen!

nkjv@2Samuel:1:20 @ Tell it not in Gath, Proclaim it not in the streets of Ashkelon-- Lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, Lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:21 @ "O mountains of Gilboa, Let there be no dew nor rain upon you, Nor fields of offerings. For the shield of the mighty is cast away there! The shield of Saul, not anointed with oil.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:22 @ From the blood of the slain, From the fat of the mighty, The bow of Jonathan did not turn back, And the sword of Saul did not return empty.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:23 @ "Saul and Jonathan were beloved and pleasant in their lives, And in their death they were not divided; They were swifter than eagles, They were stronger than lions.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:24 @ "O daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, Who clothed you in scarlet, with luxury; Who put ornaments of gold on your apparel.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:25 @ "How the mighty have fallen in the midst of the battle! Jonathan was slain in your high places.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:26 @ I am distressed for you, my brother Jonathan; You have been very pleasant to me; Your love to me was wonderful, Surpassing the love of women.

nkjv@2Samuel:1:27 @ "How the mighty have fallen, And the weapons of war perished!"

nkjv@2Samuel:2:1 @ It happened after this that David inquired of the LORD, saying, "Shall I go up to any of the cities of Judah?" And the LORD said to him, "Go up." David said, "Where shall I go up?" And He said, "To Hebron."

nkjv@2Samuel:2:2 @ So David went up there, and his two wives also, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:3 @ And David brought up the men who were with him, every man with his household. So they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:4 @ Then the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, "The men of Jabesh Gilead were the ones who buried Saul."

nkjv@2Samuel:2:5 @ So David sent messengers to the men of Jabesh Gilead, and said to them, "You are blessed of the LORD, for you have shown this kindness to your lord, to Saul, and have buried him.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:6 @ And now may the LORD show kindness and truth to you. I also will repay you this kindness, because you have done this thing.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:7 @ Now therefore, let your hands be strengthened, and be valiant; for your master Saul is dead, and also the house of Judah has anointed me king over them."

nkjv@2Samuel:2:8 @ But Abner the son of Ner, commander of Saul's army, took Ishbosheth the son of Saul and brought him over to Mahanaim;

nkjv@2Samuel:2:9 @ and he made him king over Gilead, over the Ashurites, over Jezreel, over Ephraim, over Benjamin, and over all Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:10 @ Ishbosheth, Saul's son, was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. Only the house of Judah followed David.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:11 @ And the time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:12 @ Now Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:13 @ And Joab the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out and met them by the pool of Gibeon. So they sat down, one on one side of the pool and the other on the other side of the pool.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:14 @ Then Abner said to Joab, "Let the young men now arise and compete before us." And Joab said, "Let them arise."

nkjv@2Samuel:2:15 @ So they arose and went over by number, twelve from Benjamin, followers of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and twelve from the servants of David.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:16 @ And each one grasped his opponent by the head and thrust his sword in his opponent's side; so they fell down together. Therefore that place was called the Field of Sharp Swords, which is in Gibeon.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:17 @ So there was a very fierce battle that day, and Abner and the men of Israel were beaten before the servants of David.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:18 @ Now the three sons of Zeruiah were there: Joab and Abishai and Asahel. And Asahel was as fleet of foot as a wild gazelle.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:19 @ So Asahel pursued Abner, and in going he did not turn to the right hand or to the left from following Abner.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:20 @ Then Abner looked behind him and said, "Are you Asahel?" He answered, "I am."

nkjv@2Samuel:2:21 @ And Abner said to him, "Turn aside to your right hand or to your left, and lay hold on one of the young men and take his armor for yourself." But Asahel would not turn aside from following him.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:22 @ So Abner said again to Asahel, "Turn aside from following me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How then could I face your brother Joab?"

nkjv@2Samuel:2:23 @ However, he refused to turn aside. Therefore Abner struck him in the stomach with the blunt end of the spear, so that the spear came out of his back; and he fell down there and died on the spot. So it was that as many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died, stood still.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:24 @ Joab and Abishai also pursued Abner. And the sun was going down when they came to the hill of Ammah, which is before Giah by the road to the Wilderness of Gibeon.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:25 @ Now the children of Benjamin gathered together behind Abner and became a unit, and took their stand on top of a hill.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:26 @ Then Abner called to Joab and said, "Shall the sword devour forever? Do you not know that it will be bitter in the latter end? How long will it be then until you tell the people to return from pursuing their brethren?"

nkjv@2Samuel:2:27 @ And Joab said, "As God lives, unless you had spoken, surely then by morning all the people would have given up pursuing their brethren."

nkjv@2Samuel:2:28 @ So Joab blew a trumpet; and all the people stood still and did not pursue Israel anymore, nor did they fight anymore.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:29 @ Then Abner and his men went on all that night through the plain, crossed over the Jordan, and went through all Bithron; and they came to Mahanaim.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:30 @ So Joab returned from pursuing Abner. And when he had gathered all the people together, there were missing of David's servants nineteen men and Asahel.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:31 @ But the servants of David had struck down, of Benjamin and Abner's men, three hundred and sixty men who died.

nkjv@2Samuel:2:32 @ Then they took up Asahel and buried him in his father's tomb, which was in Bethlehem. And Joab and his men went all night, and they came to Hebron at daybreak.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:1 @ Now there was a long war between the house of Saul and the house of David. But David grew stronger and stronger, and the house of Saul grew weaker and weaker.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:2 @ Sons were born to David in Hebron: His firstborn was Amnon by Ahinoam the Jezreelitess;

nkjv@2Samuel:3:3 @ his second, Chileab, by Abigail the widow of Nabal the Carmelite; the third, Absalom the son of Maacah, the daughter of Talmai, king of Geshur;

nkjv@2Samuel:3:4 @ the fourth, Adonijah the son of Haggith; the fifth, Shephatiah the son of Abital;

nkjv@2Samuel:3:5 @ and the sixth, Ithream, by David's wife Eglah. These were born to David in Hebron.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:6 @ Now it was so, while there was war between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner was strengthening his hold on the house of Saul.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:7 @ And Saul had a concubine, whose name was Rizpah, the daughter of Aiah. So Ishbosheth said to Abner, "Why have you gone in to my father's concubine?"

nkjv@2Samuel:3:8 @ Then Abner became very angry at the words of Ishbosheth, and said, "Am I a dog's head that belongs to Judah? Today I show loyalty to the house of Saul your father, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David; and you charge me today with a fault concerning this woman?

nkjv@2Samuel:3:9 @ May God do so to Abner, and more also, if I do not do for David as the LORD has sworn to him--

nkjv@2Samuel:3:10 @ to transfer the kingdom from the house of Saul, and set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan to Beersheba."

nkjv@2Samuel:3:11 @ And he could not answer Abner another word, because he feared him.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:12 @ Then Abner sent messengers on his behalf to David, saying, "Whose is the land?" saying also, "Make your covenant with me, and indeed my hand shall be with you to bring all Israel to you."

nkjv@2Samuel:3:13 @ And David said, "Good, I will make a covenant with you. But one thing I require of you: you shall not see my face unless you first bring Michal, Saul's daughter, when you come to see my face."

nkjv@2Samuel:3:14 @ So David sent messengers to Ishbosheth, Saul's son, saying, "Give me my wife Michal, whom I betrothed to myself for a hundred foreskins of the Philistines."

nkjv@2Samuel:3:15 @ And Ishbosheth sent and took her from her husband, from Paltiel the son of Laish.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:16 @ Then her husband went along with her to Bahurim, weeping behind her. So Abner said to him, "Go, return!" And he returned.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:17 @ Now Abner had communicated with the elders of Israel, saying, "In time past you were seeking for David to be king over you.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:18 @ Now then, do it! For the LORD has spoken of David, saying, "By the hand of My servant David, I will save My people Israel from the hand of the Philistines and the hand of all their enemies."'

nkjv@2Samuel:3:19 @ And Abner also spoke in the hearing of Benjamin. Then Abner also went to speak in the hearing of David in Hebron all that seemed good to Israel and the whole house of Benjamin.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:20 @ So Abner and twenty men with him came to David at Hebron. And David made a feast for Abner and the men who were with him.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:21 @ Then Abner said to David, "I will arise and go, and gather all Israel to my lord the king, that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may reign over all that your heart desires." So David sent Abner away, and he went in peace.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:22 @ At that moment the servants of David and Joab came from a raid and brought much spoil with them. But Abner was not with David in Hebron, for he had sent him away, and he had gone in peace.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:23 @ When Joab and all the troops that were with him had come, they told Joab, saying, "Abner the son of Ner came to the king, and he sent him away, and he has gone in peace."

nkjv@2Samuel:3:24 @ Then Joab came to the king and said, "What have you done? Look, Abner came to you; why is it that you sent him away, and he has already gone?

nkjv@2Samuel:3:25 @ Surely you realize that Abner the son of Ner came to deceive you, to know your going out and your coming in, and to know all that you are doing."

nkjv@2Samuel:3:26 @ And when Joab had gone from David's presence, he sent messengers after Abner, who brought him back from the well of Sirah. But David did not know it.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:27 @ Now when Abner had returned to Hebron, Joab took him aside in the gate to speak with him privately, and there stabbed him in the stomach, so that he died for the blood of Asahel his brother.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:28 @ Afterward, when David heard it, he said, "My kingdom and I are guiltless before the LORD forever of the blood of Abner the son of Ner.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:29 @ Let it rest on the head of Joab and on all his father's house; and let there never fail to be in the house of Joab one who has a discharge or is a leper, who leans on a staff or falls by the sword, or who lacks bread."

nkjv@2Samuel:3:30 @ So Joab and Abishai his brother killed Abner, because he had killed their brother Asahel at Gibeon in the battle.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:31 @ Then David said to Joab and to all the people who were with him, "Tear your clothes, gird yourselves with sackcloth, and mourn for Abner." And King David followed the coffin.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:32 @ So they buried Abner in Hebron; and the king lifted up his voice and wept at the grave of Abner, and all the people wept.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:33 @ And the king sang a lament over Abner and said: "Should Abner die as a fool dies?

nkjv@2Samuel:3:34 @ Your hands were not bound Nor your feet put into fetters; As a man falls before wicked men, so you fell." Then all the people wept over him again.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:35 @ And when all the people came to persuade David to eat food while it was still day, David took an oath, saying, "God do so to me, and more also, if I taste bread or anything else till the sun goes down!"

nkjv@2Samuel:3:36 @ Now all the people took note of it, and it pleased them, since whatever the king did pleased all the people.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:37 @ For all the people and all Israel understood that day that it had not been the king's intent to kill Abner the son of Ner.

nkjv@2Samuel:3:38 @ Then the king said to his servants, "Do you not know that a prince and a great man has fallen this day in Israel?

nkjv@2Samuel:3:39 @ And I am weak today, though anointed king; and these men, the sons of Zeruiah, are too harsh for me. The LORD shall repay the evildoer according to his wickedness."

nkjv@2Samuel:4:1 @ When Saul's son heard that Abner had died in Hebron, he lost heart, and all Israel was troubled.

nkjv@2Samuel:4:2 @ Now Saul's son had two men who were captains of troops. The name of one was Baanah and the name of the other Rechab, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, of the children of Benjamin. (For Beeroth also was part of Benjamin,

nkjv@2Samuel:4:3 @ because the Beerothites fled to Gittaim and have been sojourners there until this day.)

nkjv@2Samuel:4:4 @ Jonathan, Saul's son, had a son who was lame in his feet. He was five years old when the news about Saul and Jonathan came from Jezreel; and his nurse took him up and fled. And it happened, as she made haste to flee, that he fell and became lame. His name was Mephibosheth.

nkjv@2Samuel:4:5 @ Then the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, Rechab and Baanah, set out and came at about the heat of the day to the house of Ishbosheth, who was lying on his bed at noon.

nkjv@2Samuel:4:6 @ And they came there, all the way into the house, as though to get wheat, and they stabbed him in the stomach. Then Rechab and Baanah his brother escaped.

nkjv@2Samuel:4:7 @ For when they came into the house, he was lying on his bed in his bedroom; then they struck him and killed him, beheaded him and took his head, and were all night escaping through the plain.

nkjv@2Samuel:4:8 @ And they brought the head of Ishbosheth to David at Hebron, and said to the king, "Here is the head of Ishbosheth, the son of Saul your enemy, who sought your life; and the LORD has avenged my lord the king this day of Saul and his descendants."

nkjv@2Samuel:4:9 @ But David answered Rechab and Baanah his brother, the sons of Rimmon the Beerothite, and said to them, "As the LORD lives, who has redeemed my life from all adversity,

nkjv@2Samuel:4:10 @ when someone told me, saying, "Look, Saul is dead,' thinking to have brought good news, I arrested him and had him executed in Ziklag--the one who thought I would give him a reward for his news.

nkjv@2Samuel:4:11 @ How much more, when wicked men have killed a righteous person in his own house on his bed? Therefore, shall I not now require his blood at your hand and remove you from the earth?"

nkjv@2Samuel:4:12 @ So David commanded his young men, and they executed them, cut off their hands and feet, and hanged them by the pool in Hebron. But they took the head of Ishbosheth and buried it in the tomb of Abner in Hebron.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:1 @ Then all the tribes of Israel came to David at Hebron and spoke, saying, "Indeed we are your bone and your flesh.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:2 @ Also, in time past, when Saul was king over us, you were the one who led Israel out and brought them in; and the LORD said to you, "You shall shepherd My people Israel, and be ruler over Israel."'

nkjv@2Samuel:5:3 @ Therefore all the elders of Israel came to the king at Hebron, and King David made a covenant with them at Hebron before the LORD. And they anointed David king over Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:4 @ David was thirty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned forty years.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:5 @ In Hebron he reigned over Judah seven years and six months, and in Jerusalem he reigned thirty-three years over all Israel and Judah.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:6 @ And the king and his men went to Jerusalem against the Jebusites, the inhabitants of the land, who spoke to David, saying, "You shall not come in here; but the blind and the lame will repel you," thinking, "David cannot come in here."

nkjv@2Samuel:5:7 @ Nevertheless David took the stronghold of Zion (that is, the City of David).

nkjv@2Samuel:5:8 @ Now David said on that day, "Whoever climbs up by way of the water shaft and defeats the Jebusites (the lame and the blind, who are hated by David's soul), he shall be chief and captain." Therefore they say, "The blind and the lame shall not come into the house."

nkjv@2Samuel:5:9 @ Then David dwelt in the stronghold, and called it the City of David. And David built all around from the Millo and inward.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:10 @ So David went on and became great, and the LORD God of hosts was with him.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:11 @ Then Hiram king of Tyre sent messengers to David, and cedar trees, and carpenters and masons. And they built David a house.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:12 @ So David knew that the LORD had established him as king over Israel, and that He had exalted His kingdom for the sake of His people Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:13 @ And David took more concubines and wives from Jerusalem, after he had come from Hebron. Also more sons and daughters were born to David.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:14 @ Now these are the names of those who were born to him in Jerusalem: Shammua, Shobab, Nathan, Solomon,

nkjv@2Samuel:5:15 @ Ibhar, Elishua, Nepheg, Japhia,

nkjv@2Samuel:5:16 @ Elishama, Eliada, and Eliphelet.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:17 @ Now when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to search for David. And David heard of it and went down to the stronghold.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:18 @ The Philistines also went and deployed themselves in the Valley of Rephaim.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:19 @ So David inquired of the LORD, saying, "Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?" And the LORD said to David, "Go up, for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into your hand."

nkjv@2Samuel:5:20 @ So David went to Baal Perazim, and David defeated them there; and he said, "The LORD has broken through my enemies before me, like a breakthrough of water." Therefore he called the name of that place Baal Perazim.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:21 @ And they left their images there, and David and his men carried them away.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:22 @ Then the Philistines went up once again and deployed themselves in the Valley of Rephaim.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:23 @ Therefore David inquired of the LORD, and He said, "You shall not go up; circle around behind them, and come upon them in front of the mulberry trees.

nkjv@2Samuel:5:24 @ And it shall be, when you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the mulberry trees, then you shall advance quickly. For then the LORD will go out before you to strike the camp of the Philistines."

nkjv@2Samuel:5:25 @ And David did so, as the LORD commanded him; and he drove back the Philistines from Geba as far as Gezer.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:1 @ Again David gathered all the choice men of Israel, thirty thousand.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:2 @ And David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Baale Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, whose name is called by the Name, the LORD of Hosts, who dwells between the cherubim.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:3 @ So they set the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:4 @ And they brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill, accompanying the ark of God; and Ahio went before the ark.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:5 @ Then David and all the house of Israel played music before the LORD on all kinds of instruments of fir wood, on harps, on stringed instruments, on tambourines, on sistrums, and on cymbals.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:6 @ And when they came to Nachon's threshing floor, Uzzah put out his hand to the ark of God and took hold of it, for the oxen stumbled.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:7 @ Then the anger of the LORD was aroused against Uzzah, and God struck him there for his error; and he died there by the ark of God.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:8 @ And David became angry because of the LORD's outbreak against Uzzah; and he called the name of the place Perez Uzzah to this day.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:9 @ David was afraid of the LORD that day; and he said, "How can the ark of the LORD come to me?"

nkjv@2Samuel:6:10 @ So David would not move the ark of the LORD with him into the City of David; but David took it aside into the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:11 @ The ark of the LORD remained in the house of Obed-Edom the Gittite three months. And the LORD blessed Obed-Edom and all his household.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:12 @ Now it was told King David, saying, "The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God." So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with gladness.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:13 @ And so it was, when those bearing the ark of the LORD had gone six paces, that he sacrificed oxen and fatted sheep.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:14 @ Then David danced before the LORD with all his might; and David was wearing a linen ephod.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:15 @ So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:16 @ Now as the ark of the LORD came into the City of David, Michal, Saul's daughter, looked through a window and saw King David leaping and whirling before the LORD; and she despised him in her heart.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:17 @ So they brought the ark of the LORD, and set it in its place in the midst of the tabernacle that David had erected for it. Then David offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:18 @ And when David had finished offering burnt offerings and peace offerings, he blessed the people in the name of the LORD of hosts.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:19 @ Then he distributed among all the people, among the whole multitude of Israel, both the women and the men, to everyone a loaf of bread, a piece of meat, and a cake of raisins. So all the people departed, everyone to his house.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:20 @ Then David returned to bless his household. And Michal the daughter of Saul came out to meet David, and said, "How glorious was the king of Israel today, uncovering himself today in the eyes of the maids of his servants, as one of the base fellows shamelessly uncovers himself!"

nkjv@2Samuel:6:21 @ So David said to Michal, "It was before the LORD, who chose me instead of your father and all his house, to appoint me ruler over the people of the LORD, over Israel. Therefore I will play music before the LORD.

nkjv@2Samuel:6:22 @ And I will be even more undignified than this, and will be humble in my own sight. But as for the maidservants of whom you have spoken, by them I will be held in honor."

nkjv@2Samuel:6:23 @ Therefore Michal the daughter of Saul had no children to the day of her death.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:1 @ Now it came to pass when the king was dwelling in his house, and the LORD had given him rest from all his enemies all around,

nkjv@2Samuel:7:2 @ that the king said to Nathan the prophet, "See now, I dwell in a house of cedar, but the ark of God dwells inside tent curtains."

nkjv@2Samuel:7:3 @ Then Nathan said to the king, "Go, do all that is in your heart, for the LORD is with you."

nkjv@2Samuel:7:4 @ But it happened that night that the word of the LORD came to Nathan, saying,

nkjv@2Samuel:7:5 @ "Go and tell My servant David, "Thus says the LORD: "Would you build a house for Me to dwell in?

nkjv@2Samuel:7:6 @ For I have not dwelt in a house since the time that I brought the children of Israel up from Egypt, even to this day, but have moved about in a tent and in a tabernacle.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:7 @ Wherever I have moved about with all the children of Israel, have I ever spoken a word to anyone from the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded to shepherd My people Israel, saying, "Why have you not built Me a house of cedar?""

nkjv@2Samuel:7:8 @ Now therefore, thus shall you say to My servant David, "Thus says the LORD of hosts: "I took you from the sheepfold, from following the sheep, to be ruler over My people, over Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:9 @ And I have been with you wherever you have gone, and have cut off all your enemies from before you, and have made you a great name, like the name of the great men who are on the earth.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:10 @ Moreover I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in a place of their own and move no more; nor shall the sons of wickedness oppress them anymore, as previously,

nkjv@2Samuel:7:11 @ since the time that I commanded judges to be over My people Israel, and have caused you to rest from all your enemies. Also the LORD tells you that He will make you a house.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:12 @ "When your days are fulfilled and you rest with your fathers, I will set up your seed after you, who will come from your body, and I will establish his kingdom.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:13 @ He shall build a house for My name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom forever.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:14 @ I will be his Father, and he shall be My son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the blows of the sons of men.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:16 @ And your house and your kingdom shall be established forever before you. Your throne shall be established forever.""'

nkjv@2Samuel:7:17 @ According to all these words and according to all this vision, so Nathan spoke to David.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:18 @ Then King David went in and sat before the LORD; and he said: "Who am I, O Lord GOD? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far?

nkjv@2Samuel:7:19 @ And yet this was a small thing in Your sight, O Lord GOD; and You have also spoken of Your servant's house for a great while to come. Is this the manner of man, O Lord GOD?

nkjv@2Samuel:7:20 @ Now what more can David say to You? For You, Lord GOD, know Your servant.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:21 @ For Your word's sake, and according to Your own heart, You have done all these great things, to make Your servant know them.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:22 @ Therefore You are great, O Lord GOD. For there is none like You, nor is there any God besides You, according to all that we have heard with our ears.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:23 @ And who is like Your people, like Israel, the one nation on the earth whom God went to redeem for Himself as a people, to make for Himself a name--and to do for Yourself great and awesome deeds for Your land--before Your people whom You redeemed for Yourself from Egypt, the nations, and their gods?

nkjv@2Samuel:7:24 @ For You have made Your people Israel Your very own people forever; and You, LORD, have become their God.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:25 @ "Now, O LORD God, the word which You have spoken concerning Your servant and concerning his house, establish it forever and do as You have said.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:26 @ So let Your name be magnified forever, saying, "The LORD of hosts is the God over Israel.' And let the house of Your servant David be established before You.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:27 @ For You, O LORD of hosts, God of Israel, have revealed this to Your servant, saying, "I will build you a house.' Therefore Your servant has found it in his heart to pray this prayer to You.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:28 @ "And now, O Lord GOD, You are God, and Your words are true, and You have promised this goodness to Your servant.

nkjv@2Samuel:7:29 @ Now therefore, let it please You to bless the house of Your servant, that it may continue before You forever; for You, O Lord GOD, have spoken it, and with Your blessing let the house of Your servant be blessed forever."

nkjv@2Samuel:8:1 @ After this it came to pass that David attacked the Philistines and subdued them. And David took Metheg Ammah from the hand of the Philistines.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:2 @ Then he defeated Moab. Forcing them down to the ground, he measured them off with a line. With two lines he measured off those to be put to death, and with one full line those to be kept alive. So the Moabites became David's servants, and brought tribute.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:3 @ David also defeated Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his territory at the River Euphrates.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:4 @ David took from him one thousand chariots, seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand foot soldiers. Also David hamstrung all the chariot horses, except that he spared enough of them for one hundred chariots.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:5 @ When the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David killed twenty-two thousand of the Syrians.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:6 @ Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became David's servants, and brought tribute. So the LORD preserved David wherever he went.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:7 @ And David took the shields of gold that had belonged to the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:8 @ Also from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a large amount of bronze.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:9 @ When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had defeated all the army of Hadadezer,

nkjv@2Samuel:8:10 @ then Toi sent Joram his son to King David, to greet him and bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him (for Hadadezer had been at war with Toi); and Joram brought with him articles of silver, articles of gold, and articles of bronze.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:11 @ King David also dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold that he had dedicated from all the nations which he had subdued--

nkjv@2Samuel:8:12 @ from Syria, from Moab, from the people of Ammon, from the Philistines, from Amalek, and from the spoil of Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:13 @ And David made himself a name when he returned from killing eighteen thousand Syrians in the Valley of Salt.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:14 @ He also put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom he put garrisons, and all the Edomites became David's servants. And the LORD preserved David wherever he went.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:15 @ So David reigned over all Israel; and David administered judgment and justice to all his people.

nkjv@2Samuel:8:16 @ Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the army; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;

nkjv@2Samuel:8:17 @ Zadok the son of Ahitub and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar were the priests; Seraiah was the scribe;

nkjv@2Samuel:8:18 @ Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over both the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were chief ministers.

nkjv@2Samuel:9:1 @ Now David said, "Is there still anyone who is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan's sake?"

nkjv@2Samuel:9:2 @ And there was a servant of the house of Saul whose name was Ziba. So when they had called him to David, the king said to him, "Are you Ziba?" He said, "At your service!"

nkjv@2Samuel:9:3 @ Then the king said, "Is there not still someone of the house of Saul, to whom I may show the kindness of God?" And Ziba said to the king, "There is still a son of Jonathan who is lame in his feet."

nkjv@2Samuel:9:4 @ So the king said to him, "Where is he?" And Ziba said to the king, "Indeed he is in the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, in Lo Debar."

nkjv@2Samuel:9:5 @ Then King David sent and brought him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.

nkjv@2Samuel:9:6 @ Now when Mephibosheth the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, had come to David, he fell on his face and prostrated himself. Then David said, "Mephibosheth?" And he answered, "Here is your servant!"

nkjv@2Samuel:9:7 @ So David said to him, "Do not fear, for I will surely show you kindness for Jonathan your father's sake, and will restore to you all the land of Saul your grandfather; and you shall eat bread at my table continually."

nkjv@2Samuel:9:8 @ Then he bowed himself, and said, "What is your servant, that you should look upon such a dead dog as I?"

nkjv@2Samuel:9:9 @ And the king called to Ziba, Saul's servant, and said to him, "I have given to your master's son all that belonged to Saul and to all his house.

nkjv@2Samuel:9:10 @ You therefore, and your sons and your servants, shall work the land for him, and you shall bring in the harvest, that your master's son may have food to eat. But Mephibosheth your master's son shall eat bread at my table always." Now Ziba had fifteen sons and twenty servants.

nkjv@2Samuel:9:11 @ Then Ziba said to the king, "According to all that my lord the king has commanded his servant, so will your servant do." "As for Mephibosheth," said the king, "he shall eat at my table like one of the king's sons."

nkjv@2Samuel:9:12 @ Mephibosheth had a young son whose name was Micha. And all who dwelt in the house of Ziba were servants of Mephibosheth.

nkjv@2Samuel:9:13 @ So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem, for he ate continually at the king's table. And he was lame in both his feet.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:1 @ It happened after this that the king of the people of Ammon died, and Hanun his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:2 @ Then David said, "I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, as his father showed kindness to me." So David sent by the hand of his servants to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came into the land of the people of Ammon.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:3 @ And the princes of the people of Ammon said to Hanun their lord, "Do you think that David really honors your father because he has sent comforters to you? Has David not rather sent his servants to you to search the city, to spy it out, and to overthrow it?"

nkjv@2Samuel:10:4 @ Therefore Hanun took David's servants, shaved off half of their beards, cut off their garments in the middle, at their buttocks, and sent them away.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:5 @ When they told David, he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, "Wait at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return."

nkjv@2Samuel:10:6 @ When the people of Ammon saw that they had made themselves repulsive to David, the people of Ammon sent and hired the Syrians of Beth Rehob and the Syrians of Zoba, twenty thousand foot soldiers; and from the king of Maacah one thousand men, and from Ish-Tob twelve thousand men.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:7 @ Now when David heard of it, he sent Joab and all the army of the mighty men.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:8 @ Then the people of Ammon came out and put themselves in battle array at the entrance of the gate. And the Syrians of Zoba, Beth Rehob, Ish-Tob, and Maacah were by themselves in the field.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:9 @ When Joab saw that the battle line was against him before and behind, he chose some of Israel's best and put them in battle array against the Syrians.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:10 @ And the rest of the people he put under the command of Abishai his brother, that he might set them in battle array against the people of Ammon.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:11 @ Then he said, "If the Syrians are too strong for me, then you shall help me; but if the people of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will come and help you.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:12 @ Be of good courage, and let us be strong for our people and for the cities of our God. And may the LORD do what is good in His sight."

nkjv@2Samuel:10:13 @ So Joab and the people who were with him drew near for the battle against the Syrians, and they fled before him.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:14 @ When the people of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fleeing, they also fled before Abishai, and entered the city. So Joab returned from the people of Ammon and went to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:15 @ When the Syrians saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they gathered together.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:16 @ Then Hadadezer sent and brought out the Syrians who were beyond the River, and they came to Helam. And Shobach the commander of Hadadezer's army went before them.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:17 @ When it was told David, he gathered all Israel, crossed over the Jordan, and came to Helam. And the Syrians set themselves in battle array against David and fought with him.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:18 @ Then the Syrians fled before Israel; and David killed seven hundred charioteers and forty thousand horsemen of the Syrians, and struck Shobach the commander of their army, who died there.

nkjv@2Samuel:10:19 @ And when all the kings who were servants to Hadadezer saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with Israel and served them. So the Syrians were afraid to help the people of Ammon anymore.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:1 @ It happened in the spring of the year, at the time when kings go out to battle, that David sent Joab and his servants with him, and all Israel; and they destroyed the people of Ammon and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:2 @ Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king's house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to behold.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:3 @ So David sent and inquired about the woman. And someone said, "Is this not Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?"

nkjv@2Samuel:11:4 @ Then David sent messengers, and took her; and she came to him, and he lay with her, for she was cleansed from her impurity; and she returned to her house.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:5 @ And the woman conceived; so she sent and told David, and said, "I am with child."

nkjv@2Samuel:11:6 @ Then David sent to Joab, saying, "Send me Uriah the Hittite." And Joab sent Uriah to David.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:7 @ When Uriah had come to him, David asked how Joab was doing, and how the people were doing, and how the war prospered.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:8 @ And David said to Uriah, "Go down to your house and wash your feet." So Uriah departed from the king's house, and a gift of food from the king followed him.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:9 @ But Uriah slept at the door of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:10 @ So when they told David, saying, "Uriah did not go down to his house," David said to Uriah, "Did you not come from a journey? Why did you not go down to your house?"

nkjv@2Samuel:11:11 @ And Uriah said to David, "The ark and Israel and Judah are dwelling in tents, and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are encamped in the open fields. Shall I then go to my house to eat and drink, and to lie with my wife? As you live, and as your soul lives, I will not do this thing."

nkjv@2Samuel:11:12 @ Then David said to Uriah, "Wait here today also, and tomorrow I will let you depart." So Uriah remained in Jerusalem that day and the next.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:13 @ Now when David called him, he ate and drank before him; and he made him drunk. And at evening he went out to lie on his bed with the servants of his lord, but he did not go down to his house.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:14 @ In the morning it happened that David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it by the hand of Uriah.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:15 @ And he wrote in the letter, saying, "Set Uriah in the forefront of the hottest battle, and retreat from him, that he may be struck down and die."

nkjv@2Samuel:11:16 @ So it was, while Joab besieged the city, that he assigned Uriah to a place where he knew there were valiant men.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:17 @ Then the men of the city came out and fought with Joab. And some of the people of the servants of David fell; and Uriah the Hittite died also.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:18 @ Then Joab sent and told David all the things concerning the war,

nkjv@2Samuel:11:19 @ and charged the messenger, saying, "When you have finished telling the matters of the war to the king,

nkjv@2Samuel:11:20 @ if it happens that the king's wrath rises, and he says to you: "Why did you approach so near to the city when you fought? Did you not know that they would shoot from the wall?

nkjv@2Samuel:11:21 @ Who struck Abimelech the son of Jerubbesheth? Was it not a woman who cast a piece of a millstone on him from the wall, so that he died in Thebez? Why did you go near the wall?'--then you shall say, "Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also."'

nkjv@2Samuel:11:22 @ So the messenger went, and came and told David all that Joab had sent by him.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:23 @ And the messenger said to David, "Surely the men prevailed against us and came out to us in the field; then we drove them back as far as the entrance of the gate.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:24 @ The archers shot from the wall at your servants; and some of the king's servants are dead, and your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead also."

nkjv@2Samuel:11:25 @ Then David said to the messenger, "Thus you shall say to Joab: "Do not let this thing displease you, for the sword devours one as well as another. Strengthen your attack against the city, and overthrow it.' So encourage him."

nkjv@2Samuel:11:26 @ When the wife of Uriah heard that Uriah her husband was dead, she mourned for her husband.

nkjv@2Samuel:11:27 @ And when her mourning was over, David sent and brought her to his house, and she became his wife and bore him a son. But the thing that David had done displeased the LORD.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:1 @ Then the LORD sent Nathan to David. And he came to him, and said to him: "There were two men in one city, one rich and the other poor.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:2 @ The rich man had exceedingly many flocks and herds.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:3 @ But the poor man had nothing, except one little ewe lamb which he had bought and nourished; and it grew up together with him and with his children. It ate of his own food and drank from his own cup and lay in his bosom; and it was like a daughter to him.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:4 @ And a traveler came to the rich man, who refused to take from his own flock and from his own herd to prepare one for the wayfaring man who had come to him; but he took the poor man's lamb and prepared it for the man who had come to him."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:5 @ So David's anger was greatly aroused against the man, and he said to Nathan, "As the LORD lives, the man who has done this shall surely die!

nkjv@2Samuel:12:6 @ And he shall restore fourfold for the lamb, because he did this thing and because he had no pity."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:7 @ Then Nathan said to David, "You are the man! Thus says the LORD God of Israel: "I anointed you king over Israel, and I delivered you from the hand of Saul.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:8 @ I gave you your master's house and your master's wives into your keeping, and gave you the house of Israel and Judah. And if that had been too little, I also would have given you much more!

nkjv@2Samuel:12:9 @ Why have you despised the commandment of the LORD, to do evil in His sight? You have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword; you have taken his wife to be your wife, and have killed him with the sword of the people of Ammon.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:10 @ Now therefore, the sword shall never depart from your house, because you have despised Me, and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife.'

nkjv@2Samuel:12:11 @ Thus says the LORD: "Behold, I will raise up adversity against you from your own house; and I will take your wives before your eyes and give them to your neighbor, and he shall lie with your wives in the sight of this sun.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:12 @ For you did it secretly, but I will do this thing before all Israel, before the sun."'

nkjv@2Samuel:12:13 @ So David said to Nathan, "I have sinned against the LORD." And Nathan said to David, "The LORD also has put away your sin; you shall not die.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:14 @ However, because by this deed you have given great occasion to the enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the child also who is born to you shall surely die."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:15 @ Then Nathan departed to his house. And the LORD struck the child that Uriah's wife bore to David, and it became ill.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:16 @ David therefore pleaded with God for the child, and David fasted and went in and lay all night on the ground.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:17 @ So the elders of his house arose and went to him, to raise him up from the ground. But he would not, nor did he eat food with them.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:18 @ Then on the seventh day it came to pass that the child died. And the servants of David were afraid to tell him that the child was dead. For they said, "Indeed, while the child was alive, we spoke to him, and he would not heed our voice. How can we tell him that the child is dead? He may do some harm!"

nkjv@2Samuel:12:19 @ When David saw that his servants were whispering, David perceived that the child was dead. Therefore David said to his servants, "Is the child dead?" And they said, "He is dead."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:20 @ So David arose from the ground, washed and anointed himself, and changed his clothes; and he went into the house of the LORD and worshiped. Then he went to his own house; and when he requested, they set food before him, and he ate.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:21 @ Then his servants said to him, "What is this that you have done? You fasted and wept for the child while he was alive, but when the child died, you arose and ate food."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:22 @ And he said, "While the child was alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, "Who can tell whether the LORD will be gracious to me, that the child may live?'

nkjv@2Samuel:12:23 @ But now he is dead; why should I fast? Can I bring him back again? I shall go to him, but he shall not return to me."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:24 @ Then David comforted Bathsheba his wife, and went in to her and lay with her. So she bore a son, and he called his name Solomon. Now the LORD loved him,

nkjv@2Samuel:12:25 @ and He sent word by the hand of Nathan the prophet: So he called his name Jedidiah, because of the LORD.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:26 @ Now Joab fought against Rabbah of the people of Ammon, and took the royal city.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:27 @ And Joab sent messengers to David, and said, "I have fought against Rabbah, and I have taken the city's water supply.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:28 @ Now therefore, gather the rest of the people together and encamp against the city and take it, lest I take the city and it be called after my name."

nkjv@2Samuel:12:29 @ So David gathered all the people together and went to Rabbah, fought against it, and took it.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:30 @ Then he took their king's crown from his head. Its weight was a talent of gold, with precious stones. And it was set on David's head. Also he brought out the spoil of the city in great abundance.

nkjv@2Samuel:12:31 @ And he brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws and iron picks and iron axes, and made them cross over to the brick works. So he did to all the cities of the people of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:1 @ After this Absalom the son of David had a lovely sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:2 @ Amnon was so distressed over his sister Tamar that he became sick; for she was a virgin. And it was improper for Amnon to do anything to her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:3 @ But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David's brother. Now Jonadab was a very crafty man.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:4 @ And he said to him, "Why are you, the king's son, becoming thinner day after day? Will you not tell me?" Amnon said to him, "I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:5 @ So 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, "Please let my sister Tamar come and give me food, and prepare the food in my sight, that I may see it and eat it from her hand."'

nkjv@2Samuel:13:6 @ Then Amnon lay down and pretended to be ill; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, "Please let Tamar my sister come and make a couple of cakes for me in my sight, that I may eat from her hand."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:7 @ And David sent home to Tamar, saying, "Now go to your brother Amnon's house, and prepare food for him."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:8 @ So Tamar went to her brother Amnon's house; and he was lying down. Then she took flour and kneaded it, made cakes in his sight, and baked the cakes.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:9 @ And she took the pan and placed them out before him, but he refused to eat. Then Amnon said, "Have everyone go out from me." And they all went out from him.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:10 @ Then Amnon said to Tamar, "Bring the food into the bedroom, that I may eat from your hand." And Tamar took the cakes which she had made, and brought them to Amnon her brother in the bedroom.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:11 @ Now when she had brought them to him to eat, he took hold of her and said to her, "Come, lie with me, my sister."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:12 @ But she answered him, "No, my brother, do not force me, for no such thing should be done in Israel. Do not do this disgraceful thing!

nkjv@2Samuel:13:13 @ And I, where could I take my shame? And as for you, you would be like one of the fools in Israel. Now therefore, please speak to the king; for he will not withhold me from you."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:14 @ However, he would not heed her voice; and being stronger than she, he forced her and lay with her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:15 @ Then Amnon hated her exceedingly, so that the hatred with which he hated her was greater than the love with which he had loved her. And Amnon said to her, "Arise, be gone!"

nkjv@2Samuel:13:16 @ So she said to him, "No, indeed! This evil of sending me away is worse than the other that you did to me." But he would not listen to her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:17 @ Then he called his servant who attended him, and said, "Here! Put this woman out, away from me, and bolt the door behind her."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:18 @ Now she had on a robe of many colors, for the king's virgin daughters wore such apparel. And his servant put her out and bolted the door behind her.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:19 @ Then Tamar put ashes on her head, and tore her robe of many colors that was on her, and laid her hand on her head and went away crying bitterly.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:20 @ And Absalom her brother said to her, "Has Amnon your brother been with you? But now hold your peace, my sister. He is your brother; do not take this thing to heart." So Tamar remained desolate in her brother Absalom's house.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:21 @ But when King David heard of all these things, he was very angry.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:22 @ And Absalom spoke to his brother Amnon neither good nor bad. For Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:23 @ And it came to pass, after two full years, that Absalom had sheepshearers in Baal Hazor, which is near Ephraim; so Absalom invited all the king's sons.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:24 @ Then Absalom came to the king and said, "Kindly note, your servant has sheepshearers; please, let the king and his servants go with your servant."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:25 @ But the king said to Absalom, "No, my son, let us not all go now, lest we be a burden to you." Then he urged him, but he would not go; and he blessed him.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:26 @ Then Absalom said, "If not, please let my brother Amnon go with us." And the king said to him, "Why should he go with you?"

nkjv@2Samuel:13:27 @ But Absalom urged him; so he let Amnon and all the king's sons go with him.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:28 @ Now Absalom had commanded his servants, saying, "Watch now, when Amnon's heart is merry with wine, and when I say to you, "Strike Amnon!' then kill him. Do not be afraid. Have I not commanded you? Be courageous and valiant."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:29 @ So the servants of Absalom did to Amnon as Absalom had commanded. Then all the king's sons arose, and each one got on his mule and fled.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:30 @ And it came to pass, while they were on the way, that news came to David, saying, "Absalom has killed all the king's sons, and not one of them is left!"

nkjv@2Samuel:13:31 @ So the king arose and tore his garments and lay on the ground, and all his servants stood by with their clothes torn.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:32 @ Then Jonadab the son of Shimeah, David's brother, answered and said, "Let not my lord suppose they have killed all the young men, the king's sons, for only Amnon is dead. For by the command of Absalom this has been determined from the day that he forced his sister Tamar.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:33 @ Now therefore, let not my lord the king take the thing to his heart, to think that all the king's sons are dead. For only Amnon is dead."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:34 @ Then Absalom fled. And the young man who was keeping watch lifted his eyes and looked, and there, many people were coming from the road on the hillside behind him.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:35 @ And Jonadab said to the king, "Look, the king's sons are coming; as your servant said, so it is."

nkjv@2Samuel:13:36 @ So it was, as soon as he had finished speaking, that the king's sons indeed came, and they lifted up their voice and wept. Also the king and all his servants wept very bitterly.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:37 @ But Absalom fled and went to Talmai the son of Ammihud, king of Geshur. And David mourned for his son every day.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:38 @ So Absalom fled and went to Geshur, and was there three years.

nkjv@2Samuel:13:39 @ And King David longed to go to Absalom. For he had been comforted concerning Amnon, because he was dead.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:1 @ So Joab the son of Zeruiah perceived that the king's heart was concerned about Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:2 @ And Joab sent to Tekoa and brought from there a wise woman, and said to her, "Please pretend to be a mourner, and put on mourning apparel; do not anoint yourself with oil, but act like a woman who has been mourning a long time for the dead.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:3 @ Go to the king and speak to him in this manner." So Joab put the words in her mouth.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:4 @ And when the woman of Tekoa spoke to the king, she fell on her face to the ground and prostrated herself, and said, "Help, O king!"

nkjv@2Samuel:14:5 @ Then the king said to her, "What troubles you?" And she answered, "Indeed I am a widow, my husband is dead.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:6 @ Now your maidservant had two sons; and the two fought with each other in the field, and there was no one to part them, but the one struck the other and killed him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:7 @ And now the whole family has risen up against your maidservant, and they said, "Deliver him who struck his brother, that we may execute him for the life of his brother whom he killed; and we will destroy the heir also.' So they would extinguish my ember that is left, and leave to my husband neither name nor remnant on the earth."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:8 @ Then the king said to the woman, "Go to your house, and I will give orders concerning you."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:9 @ And the woman of Tekoa said to the king, "My lord, O king, let the iniquity be on me and on my father's house, and the king and his throne be guiltless."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:10 @ So the king said, "Whoever says anything to you, bring him to me, and he shall not touch you anymore."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:11 @ Then she said, "Please let the king remember the LORD your God, and do not permit the avenger of blood to destroy anymore, lest they destroy my son." And he said, "As the LORD lives, not one hair of your son shall fall to the ground."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:12 @ Therefore the woman said, "Please, let your maidservant speak another word to my lord the king." And he said, "Say on."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:13 @ So the woman said: "Why then have you schemed such a thing against the people of God? For the king speaks this thing as one who is guilty, in that the king does not bring his banished one home again.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:14 @ For we will surely die and become like water spilled on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again. Yet God does not take away a life; but He devises means, so that His banished ones are not expelled from Him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:15 @ Now therefore, I have come to speak of this thing to my lord the king because the people have made me afraid. And your maidservant said, "I will now speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his maidservant.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:16 @ For the king will hear and deliver his maidservant from the hand of the man who would destroy me and my son together from the inheritance of God.'

nkjv@2Samuel:14:17 @ Your maidservant said, "The word of my lord the king will now be comforting; for as the angel of God, so is my lord the king in discerning good and evil. And may the LORD your God be with you."'

nkjv@2Samuel:14:18 @ Then the king answered and said to the woman, "Please do not hide from me anything that I ask you." And the woman said, "Please, let my lord the king speak."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:19 @ So the king said, "Is the hand of Joab with you in all this?" And the woman answered and said, "As you live, my lord the king, no one can turn to the right hand or to the left from anything that my lord the king has spoken. For your servant Joab commanded me, and he put all these words in the mouth of your maidservant.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:20 @ To bring about this change of affairs your servant Joab has done this thing; but my lord is wise, according to the wisdom of the angel of God, to know everything that is in the earth."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:21 @ And the king said to Joab, "All right, I have granted this thing. Go therefore, bring back the young man Absalom."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:22 @ Then Joab fell to the ground on his face and bowed himself, and thanked the king. And Joab said, "Today your servant knows that I have found favor in your sight, my lord, O king, in that the king has fulfilled the request of his servant."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:23 @ So Joab arose and went to Geshur, and brought Absalom to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:24 @ And the king said, "Let him return to his own house, but do not let him see my face." So Absalom returned to his own house, but did not see the king's face.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:25 @ Now in all Israel there was no one who was praised as much as Absalom for his good looks. From the sole of his foot to the crown of his head there was no blemish in him.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:26 @ And when he cut the hair of his head--at the end of every year he cut it because it was heavy on him--when he cut it, he weighed the hair of his head at two hundred shekels according to the king's standard.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:27 @ To Absalom were born three sons, and one daughter whose name was Tamar. She was a woman of beautiful appearance.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:28 @ And Absalom dwelt two full years in Jerusalem, but did not see the king's face.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:29 @ Therefore Absalom sent for Joab, to send him to the king, but he would not come to him. And when he sent again the second time, he would not come.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:30 @ So he said to his servants, "See, Joab's field is near mine, and he has barley there; go and set it on fire." And Absalom's servants set the field on fire.

nkjv@2Samuel:14:31 @ Then Joab arose and came to Absalom's house, and said to him, "Why have your servants set my field on fire?"

nkjv@2Samuel:14:32 @ And Absalom answered Joab, "Look, I sent to you, saying, "Come here, so that I may send you to the king, to say, "Why have I come from Geshur? It would be better for me to be there still."' Now therefore, let me see the king's face; but if there is iniquity in me, let him execute me."

nkjv@2Samuel:14:33 @ So Joab went to the king and told him. And when he had called for Absalom, he came to the king and bowed himself on his face to the ground before the king. Then the king kissed Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:1 @ After this it happened that Absalom provided himself with chariots and horses, and fifty men to run before him.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:2 @ Now Absalom would rise early and stand beside the way to the gate. So it was, whenever anyone who had a lawsuit came to the king for a decision, that Absalom would call to him and say, "What city are you from?" And he would say, "Your servant is from such and such a tribe of Israel."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:3 @ Then Absalom would say to him, "Look, your case is good and right; but there is no deputy of the king to hear you."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:4 @ Moreover Absalom would say, "Oh, that I were made judge in the land, and everyone who has any suit or cause would come to me; then I would give him justice."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:5 @ And so it was, whenever anyone came near to bow down to him, that he would put out his hand and take him and kiss him.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:6 @ In this manner Absalom acted toward all Israel who came to the king for judgment. So Absalom stole the hearts of the men of Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:7 @ Now it came to pass after forty years that Absalom said to the king, "Please, let me go to Hebron and pay the vow which I made to the LORD.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:8 @ For your servant took a vow while I dwelt at Geshur in Syria, saying, "If the LORD indeed brings me back to Jerusalem, then I will serve the LORD."'

nkjv@2Samuel:15:9 @ And the king said to him, "Go in peace." So he arose and went to Hebron.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:10 @ Then Absalom sent spies throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, "As soon as you hear the sound of the trumpet, then you shall say, "Absalom reigns in Hebron!"'

nkjv@2Samuel:15:11 @ And with Absalom went two hundred men invited from Jerusalem, and they went along innocently and did not know anything.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:12 @ Then Absalom sent for Ahithophel the Gilonite, David's counselor, from his city--from Giloh--while he offered sacrifices. And the conspiracy grew strong, for the people with Absalom continually increased in number.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:13 @ Now a messenger came to David, saying, "The hearts of the men of Israel are with Absalom."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:14 @ So David said to all his servants who were with him at Jerusalem, "Arise, and let us flee, or we shall not escape from Absalom. Make haste to depart, lest he overtake us suddenly and bring disaster upon us, and strike the city with the edge of the sword."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:15 @ And the king's servants said to the king, "We are your servants, ready to do whatever my lord the king commands."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:16 @ Then the king went out with all his household after him. But the king left ten women, concubines, to keep the house.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:17 @ And the king went out with all the people after him, and stopped at the outskirts.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:18 @ Then all his servants passed before him; and all the Cherethites, all the Pelethites, and all the Gittites, six hundred men who had followed him from Gath, passed before the king.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:19 @ Then the king said to Ittai the Gittite, "Why are you also going with us? Return and remain with the king. For you are a foreigner and also an exile from your own place.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:20 @ In fact, you came only yesterday. Should I make you wander up and down with us today, since I go I know not where? Return, and take your brethren back. Mercy and truth be with you."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:21 @ But Ittai answered the king and said, "As the LORD lives, and as my lord the king lives, surely in whatever place my lord the king shall be, whether in death or life, even there also your servant will be."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:22 @ So David said to Ittai, "Go, and cross over." Then Ittai the Gittite and all his men and all the little ones who were with him crossed over.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:23 @ And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people crossed over. The king himself also crossed over the Brook Kidron, and all the people crossed over toward the way of the wilderness.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:24 @ There was Zadok also, and all the Levites with him, bearing the ark of the covenant of God. And they set down the ark of God, and Abiathar went up until all the people had finished crossing over from the city.

nkjv@2Samuel: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 show me both it and His dwelling place.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:26 @ But if He says thus: "I have no delight in you,' here I am, let Him do to me as seems good to Him."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:27 @ The king also said to Zadok the priest, "Are you not a seer? Return to the city in peace, and your two sons with you, Ahimaaz your son, and Jonathan the son of Abiathar.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:28 @ See, I will wait in the plains of the wilderness until word comes from you to inform me."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:29 @ Therefore Zadok and Abiathar carried the ark of God back to Jerusalem. And they remained there.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:30 @ So David went up by the Ascent of the Mount of Olives, and wept as he went up; and he had his head covered and went barefoot. And all the people who were with him covered their heads and went up, weeping as they went up.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:31 @ Then someone told David, saying, "Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom." And David said, "O LORD, I pray, turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness!"

nkjv@2Samuel:15:32 @ Now it happened when David had come to the top of the mountain, where he worshiped God--there was Hushai the Archite coming to meet him with his robe torn and dust on his head.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:33 @ David said to him, "If you go on with me, then you will become a burden to me.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:34 @ But if you return to the city, and say to Absalom, "I will be your servant, O king; as I was your father's servant previously, so I will now also be your servant,' then you may defeat the counsel of Ahithophel for me.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:35 @ And do you not have Zadok and Abiathar the priests with you there? Therefore it will be that whatever you hear from the king's house, you shall tell to Zadok and Abiathar the priests.

nkjv@2Samuel:15:36 @ Indeed they have there with them their two sons, Ahimaaz, Zadok's son, and Jonathan, Abiathar's son; and by them you shall send me everything you hear."

nkjv@2Samuel:15:37 @ So Hushai, David's friend, went into the city. And Absalom came into Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:1 @ When David was a little past the top of the mountain, there was Ziba the servant of Mephibosheth, who met him with a couple of saddled donkeys, and on them two hundred loaves of bread, one hundred clusters of raisins, one hundred summer fruits, and a skin of wine.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:2 @ And the king said to Ziba, "What do you mean to do with these?" So Ziba said, "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 are faint in the wilderness to drink."

nkjv@2Samuel:16:3 @ Then the king said, "And where is your master's son?" And Ziba said to the king, "Indeed he is staying in Jerusalem, for he said, "Today the house of Israel will restore the kingdom of my father to me."'

nkjv@2Samuel:16:4 @ So the king said to Ziba, "Here, all that belongs to Mephibosheth is yours." And Ziba said, "I humbly bow before you, that I may find favor in your sight, my lord, O king!"

nkjv@2Samuel:16:5 @ Now when King David came to Bahurim, there was a man from the family of the house of Saul, whose name was Shimei the son of Gera, coming from there. He came out, cursing continuously as he came.

nkjv@2Samuel: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.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:7 @ Also Shimei said thus when he cursed: "Come out! Come out! You bloodthirsty man, you rogue!

nkjv@2Samuel:16:8 @ The LORD has brought upon you all the blood of the house of Saul, in whose place you have reigned; and the LORD has delivered the kingdom into the hand of Absalom your son. So now you are caught in your own evil, because you are a bloodthirsty man!"

nkjv@2Samuel:16:9 @ Then Abishai the son of Zeruiah said to the king, "Why should this dead dog curse my lord the king? Please, let me go over and take off his head!"

nkjv@2Samuel:16:10 @ But the king said, "What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah? So let him curse, because the LORD has said to him, "Curse David.' Who then shall say, "Why have you done so?"'

nkjv@2Samuel:16:11 @ And David said to Abishai and all his servants, "See how my son who came from my own body seeks my life. How much more now may this Benjamite? Let him alone, and let him curse; for so the LORD has ordered him.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:12 @ It may be that the LORD will look on my affliction, and that the LORD will repay me with good for his cursing this day."

nkjv@2Samuel:16:13 @ And as David and his men went along the road, Shimei went along the hillside opposite him and cursed as he went, threw stones at him and kicked up dust.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:14 @ Now the king and all the people who were with him became weary; so they refreshed themselves there.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:15 @ Meanwhile Absalom and all the people, the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem; and Ahithophel was with him.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:16 @ And so it was, when Hushai the Archite, David's friend, came to Absalom, that Hushai said to Absalom, "Long live the king! Long live the king!"

nkjv@2Samuel:16:17 @ So Absalom said to Hushai, "Is this your loyalty to your friend? Why did you not go with your friend?"

nkjv@2Samuel:16:18 @ And Hushai said to Absalom, "No, but whom the LORD and this people and all the men of Israel choose, his I will be, and with him I will remain.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:19 @ "Furthermore, whom should I serve? Should I not serve in the presence of his son? As I have served in your father's presence, so will I be in your presence."

nkjv@2Samuel:16:20 @ Then Absalom said to Ahithophel, "Give advice as to what we should do."

nkjv@2Samuel:16:21 @ And Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Go in to your father's concubines, whom he has left to keep the house; and all Israel will hear that you are abhorred by your father. Then the hands of all who are with you will be strong."

nkjv@2Samuel:16:22 @ So they pitched a tent for Absalom on the top of the house, and Absalom went in to his father's concubines in the sight of all Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:16:23 @ Now the advice of Ahithophel, which he gave in those days, was as if one had inquired at the oracle of God. So was all the advice of Ahithophel both with David and with Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:1 @ Moreover Ahithophel said to Absalom, "Now let me choose twelve thousand men, and I will arise and pursue David tonight.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:2 @ I will come upon him while he is weary and weak, and make him afraid. And all the people who are with him will flee, and I will strike only the king.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:3 @ Then I will bring back all the people to you. When all return except the man whom you seek, all the people will be at peace."

nkjv@2Samuel:17:4 @ And the saying pleased Absalom and all the elders of Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:5 @ Then Absalom said, "Now call Hushai the Archite also, and let us hear what he says too."

nkjv@2Samuel:17:6 @ And when Hushai came to Absalom, Absalom spoke to him, saying, "Ahithophel has spoken in this manner. Shall we do as he says? If not, speak up."

nkjv@2Samuel:17:7 @ So Hushai said to Absalom: "The advice that Ahithophel has given is not good at this time.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:8 @ For," said Hushai, "you know your father and his men, that they are mighty men, and they are enraged in their minds, like a bear robbed of her cubs in the field; and your father is a man of war, and will not camp with the people.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:9 @ Surely by now he is hidden in some pit, or in some other place. And it will be, when some of them are overthrown at the first, that whoever hears it will say, "There is a slaughter among the people who follow Absalom.'

nkjv@2Samuel:17:10 @ And even he who is valiant, whose heart is like the heart of a lion, will melt completely. For all Israel knows that your father is a mighty man, and those who are with him are valiant men.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:11 @ Therefore I advise that all Israel be fully gathered to you, from Dan to Beersheba, like the sand that is by the sea for multitude, and that you go to battle in person.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:12 @ So we will come upon him in some place where he may be found, and we will fall on him as the dew falls on the ground. And of him and all the men who are with him there shall not be left so much as one.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:13 @ Moreover, if he has withdrawn into a city, then all Israel shall bring ropes to that city; and we will pull it into the river, until there is not one small stone found there."

nkjv@2Samuel:17:14 @ So Absalom and all the men of Israel said, "The advice of Hushai the Archite is better than the advice of Ahithophel." For the LORD had purposed to defeat the good advice of Ahithophel, to the intent that the LORD might bring disaster on Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:15 @ Then Hushai said to Zadok and Abiathar the priests, "Thus and so Ahithophel advised Absalom and the elders of Israel, and thus and so I have advised.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:16 @ Now therefore, send quickly and tell David, saying, "Do not spend this night in the plains of the wilderness, but speedily cross over, lest the king and all the people who are with him be swallowed up."'

nkjv@2Samuel:17:17 @ Now Jonathan and Ahimaaz stayed at En Rogel, for they dared not be seen coming into the city; so a female servant would come and tell them, and they would go and tell King David.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:18 @ Nevertheless a lad saw them, and told Absalom. But both of them went away quickly and came to a man's house in Bahurim, who had a well in his court; and they went down into it.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:19 @ Then the woman took and spread a covering over the well's mouth, and spread ground grain on it; and the thing was not known.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:20 @ And when Absalom's servants came to the woman at the house, they said, "Where are Ahimaaz and Jonathan?" So the woman said to them, "They have gone over the water brook." And when they had searched and could not find them, they returned to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:21 @ Now it came to pass, after they had departed, that they came up out of the well and went and told King David, and said to David, "Arise and cross over the water quickly. For thus has Ahithophel advised against you."

nkjv@2Samuel:17:22 @ So David and all the people who were with him arose and crossed over the Jordan. By morning light not one of them was left who had not gone over the Jordan.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:23 @ Now when Ahithophel saw that his advice was not followed, he saddled a donkey, and arose and went home to his house, to his city. Then he put his household in order, and hanged himself, and died; and he was buried in his father's tomb.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:24 @ Then David went to Mahanaim. And Absalom crossed over the Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:25 @ And Absalom made Amasa captain of the army instead of Joab. This Amasa was the son of a man whose name was Jithra, an Israelite, who had gone in to Abigail the daughter of Nahash, sister of Zeruiah, Joab's mother.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:26 @ So Israel and Absalom encamped in the land of Gilead.

nkjv@2Samuel:17:27 @ Now it happened, when David had come to Mahanaim, that Shobi the son of Nahash from Rabbah of the people of Ammon, Machir the son of Ammiel from Lo Debar, and Barzillai the Gileadite from Rogelim,

nkjv@2Samuel:17:28 @ brought beds and basins, earthen vessels and wheat, barley and flour, parched grain and beans, lentils and parched seeds,

nkjv@2Samuel:17:29 @ honey and curds, sheep and cheese of the herd, for David and the people who were with him to eat. For they said, "The people are hungry and weary and thirsty in the wilderness."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:1 @ And David numbered the people who were with him, and set captains of thousands and captains of hundreds over them.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:2 @ Then David sent out one third of the people under the hand of Joab, one third under the hand of Abishai the son of Zeruiah, Joab's brother, and one third under the hand of Ittai the Gittite. And the king said to the people, "I also will surely go out with you myself."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:3 @ But the people answered, "You shall not go out! For if we flee away, they will not care about us; nor if half of us die, will they care about us. But you are worth ten thousand of us now. For you are now more help to us in the city."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:4 @ Then the king said to them, "Whatever seems best to you I will do." So the king stood beside the gate, and all the people went out by hundreds and by thousands.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:5 @ Now the king had commanded Joab, Abishai, and Ittai, saying, "Deal gently for my sake with the young man Absalom." And all the people heard when the king gave all the captains orders concerning Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:6 @ So the people went out into the field of battle against Israel. And the battle was in the woods of Ephraim.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:7 @ The people of Israel were overthrown there before the servants of David, and a great slaughter of twenty thousand took place there that day.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:8 @ For the battle there was scattered over the face of the whole countryside, and the woods devoured more people that day than the sword devoured.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:9 @ Then Absalom met the servants of David. Absalom rode on a mule. The mule went under the thick boughs of a great terebinth tree, and his head caught in the terebinth; so he was left hanging between heaven and earth. And the mule which was under him went on.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:10 @ Now a certain man saw it and told Joab, and said, "I just saw Absalom hanging in a terebinth tree!"

nkjv@2Samuel:18:11 @ So Joab said to the man who told him, "You just saw him! And why did you not strike him there to the ground? I would have given you ten shekels of silver and a belt."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:12 @ But the man said to Joab, "Though I were to receive a thousand shekels of silver in my hand, I would not raise my hand against the king's son. For in our hearing the king commanded you and Abishai and Ittai, saying, "Beware lest anyone touch the young man Absalom!'

nkjv@2Samuel:18:13 @ Otherwise I would have dealt falsely against my own life. For there is nothing hidden from the king, and you yourself would have set yourself against me."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:14 @ Then Joab said, "I cannot linger with you." And he took three spears in his hand and thrust them through Absalom's heart, while he was still alive in the midst of the terebinth tree.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:15 @ And ten young men who bore Joab's armor surrounded Absalom, and struck and killed him.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:16 @ So Joab blew the trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing Israel. For Joab held back the people.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:17 @ And they took Absalom and cast him into a large pit in the woods, and laid a very large heap of stones over him. Then all Israel fled, everyone to his tent.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:18 @ Now Absalom in his lifetime had taken and set up a pillar for himself, which is in the King's Valley. For he said, "I have no son to keep my name in remembrance." He called the pillar after his own name. And to this day it is called Absalom's Monument.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:19 @ Then Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said, "Let me run now and take the news to the king, how the LORD has avenged him of his enemies."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:20 @ And Joab said to him, "You shall not take the news this day, for you shall take the news another day. But today you shall take no news, because the king's son is dead."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:21 @ Then Joab said to the Cushite, "Go, tell the king what you have seen." So the Cushite bowed himself to Joab and ran.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:22 @ And Ahimaaz the son of Zadok said again to Joab, "But whatever happens, please let me also run after the Cushite." So Joab said, "Why will you run, my son, since you have no news ready?"

nkjv@2Samuel:18:23 @ "But whatever happens," he said, "let me run." So he said to him, "Run." Then Ahimaaz ran by way of the plain, and outran the Cushite.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:24 @ Now David was sitting between the two gates. And the watchman went up to the roof over the gate, to the wall, lifted his eyes and looked, and there was a man, running alone.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:25 @ Then the watchman cried out and told the king. And the king said, "If he is alone, there is news in his mouth." And he came rapidly and drew near.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:26 @ Then the watchman saw another man running, and the watchman called to the gatekeeper and said, "There is another man, running alone!" And the king said, "He also brings news."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:27 @ So the watchman said, "I think the running of the first is like the running of Ahimaaz the son of Zadok." And the king said, "He is a good man, and comes with good news."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:28 @ So Ahimaaz called out and said to the king, "All is well!" Then he bowed down with his face to the earth before the king, and said, "Blessed be the LORD your God, who has delivered up the men who raised their hand against my lord the king!"

nkjv@2Samuel:18:29 @ The king said, "Is the young man Absalom safe?" Ahimaaz answered, "When Joab sent the king's servant and me your servant, I saw a great tumult, but I did not know what it was about."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:30 @ And the king said, "Turn aside and stand here." So he turned aside and stood still.

nkjv@2Samuel:18:31 @ Just then the Cushite came, and the Cushite said, "There is good news, my lord the king! For the LORD has avenged you this day of all those who rose against you."

nkjv@2Samuel:18:32 @ And the king said to the Cushite, "Is the young man Absalom safe?" So the Cushite answered, "May the enemies of my lord the king, and all who rise against you to do harm, be like that young man!"

nkjv@2Samuel:18:33 @ Then the king was deeply moved, and went up to the chamber over the gate, and wept. And as he went, he said thus: "O my son Absalom--my son, my son Absalom--if only I had died in your place! O Absalom my son, my son!"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:1 @ And Joab was told, "Behold, the king is weeping and mourning for Absalom."

nkjv@2Samuel:19:2 @ So the victory that day was turned into mourning for all the people. For the people heard it said that day, "The king is grieved for his son."

nkjv@2Samuel:19:3 @ And the people stole back into the city that day, as people who are ashamed steal away when they flee in battle.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:4 @ But the king covered his face, and the king cried out with a loud voice, "O my son Absalom! O Absalom, my son, my son!"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:5 @ Then Joab came into the house to the king, and said, "Today you have disgraced all your servants who today have saved your life, the lives of your sons and daughters, the lives of your wives and the lives of your concubines,

nkjv@2Samuel:19:6 @ in that you love your enemies and hate your friends. For you have declared today that you regard neither princes nor servants; for today I perceive that if Absalom had lived and all of us had died today, then it would have pleased you well.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:7 @ Now therefore, arise, go out and speak comfort to your servants. For I swear by the LORD, if you do not go out, not one will stay with you this night. And that will be worse for you than all the evil that has befallen you from your youth until now."

nkjv@2Samuel:19:8 @ Then the king arose and sat in the gate. And they told all the people, saying, "There is the king, sitting in the gate." So all the people came before the king. For everyone of Israel had fled to his tent.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:9 @ Now all the people were in a dispute throughout all the tribes of Israel, saying, "The king saved us from the hand of our enemies, he delivered us from the hand of the Philistines, and now he has fled from the land because of Absalom.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:10 @ But Absalom, whom we anointed over us, has died in battle. Now therefore, why do you say nothing about bringing back the king?"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:11 @ So King David sent to Zadok and Abiathar the priests, saying, "Speak to the elders of Judah, saying, "Why are you the last to bring the king back to his house, since the words of all Israel have come to the king, to his very house?

nkjv@2Samuel:19:12 @ You are my brethren, you are my bone and my flesh. Why then are you the last to bring back the king?'

nkjv@2Samuel: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 the army before me continually in place of Joab."'

nkjv@2Samuel:19:14 @ So he swayed the hearts of all the men of Judah, just as the heart of one man, so that they sent this word to the king: "Return, you and all your servants!"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:15 @ Then the king returned and came to the Jordan. And Judah came to Gilgal, to go to meet the king, to escort the king across the Jordan.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:16 @ And Shimei the son of Gera, a Benjamite, who was from Bahurim, hurried and came down with the men of Judah to meet King David.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:17 @ There were a thousand men of Benjamin with him, and Ziba the servant of the house of Saul, and his fifteen sons and his twenty servants with him; and they went over the Jordan before the king.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:18 @ Then a ferryboat went across to carry over the king's household, and to do what he thought good. Now Shimei the son of Gera fell down before the king when he had crossed the Jordan.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:19 @ Then he said to the king, "Do not let my lord impute iniquity to me, or remember what wrong your servant did on the day that my lord the king left Jerusalem, that the king should take it to heart.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:20 @ For I, your servant, know that I have sinned. Therefore here I am, the first to come today of all the house of Joseph to go down to meet my lord the king."

nkjv@2Samuel:19:21 @ But Abishai the son of Zeruiah answered and said, "Shall not Shimei be put to death for this, because he cursed the LORD's anointed?"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:22 @ And David said, "What have I to do with you, you sons of Zeruiah, that you should be adversaries to me today? Shall any man be put to death today in Israel? For do I not know that today I am king over Israel?"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:23 @ Therefore the king said to Shimei, "You shall not die." And the king swore to him.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:24 @ Now Mephibosheth the son of Saul came down to meet the king. And he had not cared for his feet, nor trimmed his mustache, nor washed his clothes, from the day the king departed until the day he returned in peace.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:25 @ So it was, when he had come to Jerusalem to meet the king, that the king said to him, "Why did you not go with me, Mephibosheth?"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:26 @ And he answered, "My lord, O king, my servant deceived me. For your servant said, "I will saddle a donkey for myself, that I may ride on it and go to the king,' because your servant is lame.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:27 @ And he has slandered your servant to my lord the king, but my lord the king is like the angel of God. Therefore do what is good in your eyes.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:28 @ For all my father's house were but dead men before my lord the king. Yet you set your servant among those who eat at your own table. Therefore what right have I still to cry out anymore to the king?"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:29 @ So the king said to him, "Why do you speak anymore of your matters? I have said, "You and Ziba divide the land."'

nkjv@2Samuel:19:30 @ Then Mephibosheth said to the king, "Rather, let him take it all, inasmuch as my lord the king has come back in peace to his own house."

nkjv@2Samuel:19:31 @ And Barzillai the Gileadite came down from Rogelim and went across the Jordan with the king, to escort him across the Jordan.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:32 @ Now Barzillai was a very aged man, eighty years old. And he had provided the king with supplies while he stayed at Mahanaim, for he was a very rich man.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:33 @ And the king said to Barzillai, "Come across with me, and I will provide for you while you are with me in Jerusalem."

nkjv@2Samuel:19:34 @ But Barzillai said to the king, "How long have I to live, that I should go up with the king to Jerusalem?

nkjv@2Samuel:19:35 @ I am today eighty years old. Can I discern between the good and bad? Can your servant taste what I eat or what I drink? Can I hear any longer the voice of singing men and singing women? Why then should your servant be a further burden to my lord the king?

nkjv@2Samuel:19:36 @ Your servant will go a little way across the Jordan with the king. And why should the king repay me with such a reward?

nkjv@2Samuel:19:37 @ Please let your servant turn back again, that I may die in my own city, near the grave of my father and mother. But here is your servant Chimham; let him cross over with my lord the king, and do for him what seems good to you."

nkjv@2Samuel:19:38 @ And the king answered, "Chimham shall cross over with me, and I will do for him what seems good to you. Now whatever you request of me, I will do for you."

nkjv@2Samuel:19:39 @ Then all the people went over the Jordan. And when the king had crossed over, the king kissed Barzillai and blessed him, and he returned to his own place.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:40 @ Now the king went on to Gilgal, and Chimham went on with him. And all the people of Judah escorted the king, and also half the people of Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:19:41 @ Just then all the men of Israel came to the king, and said to the king, "Why have our brethren, the men of Judah, stolen you away and brought the king, his household, and all David's men with him across the Jordan?"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:42 @ So all the men of Judah answered the men of Israel, "Because the king is a close relative of ours. Why then are you angry over this matter? Have we ever eaten at the king's expense? Or has he given us any gift?"

nkjv@2Samuel:19:43 @ And the men of Israel answered the men of Judah, and said, "We have ten shares in the king; therefore we also have more right to David than you. Why then do you despise us--were we not the first to advise bringing back our king?" Yet the words of the men of Judah were fiercer than the words of the men of Israel.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:1 @ And there happened to be there a rebel, whose name was Sheba the son of Bichri, a Benjamite. And he blew a trumpet, and said: "We have no share in David, Nor do we have inheritance in the son of Jesse; Every man to his tents, O Israel!"

nkjv@2Samuel:20:2 @ So every man of Israel deserted David, and followed Sheba the son of Bichri. But the men of Judah, from the Jordan as far as Jerusalem, remained loyal to their king.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:3 @ Now David came to his house at Jerusalem. And the king took the ten women, his concubines whom he had left to keep the house, and put them in seclusion and supported them, but did not go in to them. So they were shut up to the day of their death, living in widowhood.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:4 @ And the king said to Amasa, "Assemble the men of Judah for me within three days, and be present here yourself."

nkjv@2Samuel:20:5 @ So Amasa went to assemble the men of Judah. But he delayed longer than the set time which David had appointed him.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:6 @ And David said to Abishai, "Now Sheba the son of Bichri will do us more harm than Absalom. Take your lord's servants and pursue him, lest he find for himself fortified cities, and escape us."

nkjv@2Samuel:20:7 @ So Joab's men, with the Cherethites, the Pelethites, and all the mighty men, went out after him. And they went out of Jerusalem to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:8 @ When they were at the large stone which is in Gibeon, Amasa came before them. Now Joab was dressed in battle armor; on it was a belt with a sword fastened in its sheath at his hips; and as he was going forward, it fell out.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:9 @ Then Joab said to Amasa, "Are you in health, my brother?" And Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:10 @ But Amasa did not notice the sword that was in Joab's hand. And he struck him with it in the stomach, and his entrails poured out on the ground; and he did not strike him again. Thus he died. Then Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba the son of Bichri.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:11 @ Meanwhile one of Joab's men stood near Amasa, and said, "Whoever favors Joab and whoever is for David--follow Joab!"

nkjv@2Samuel:20:12 @ But Amasa wallowed in his blood in the middle of the highway. And when the man saw that all the people stood still, he moved Amasa from the highway to the field and threw a garment over him, when he saw that everyone who came upon him halted.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:13 @ When he was removed from the highway, all the people went on after Joab to pursue Sheba the son of Bichri.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:14 @ And he went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel and Beth Maachah and all the Berites. So they were gathered together and also went after Sheba.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:15 @ Then they came and besieged him in Abel of Beth Maachah; and they cast up a siege mound against the city, and it stood by the rampart. And all the people who were with Joab battered the wall to throw it down.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:16 @ Then a wise woman cried out from the city, "Hear, hear! Please say to Joab, "Come nearby, that I may speak with you."'

nkjv@2Samuel:20:17 @ When he had come near to her, the woman said, "Are you Joab?" He answered, "I am." Then she said to him, "Hear the words of your maidservant." And he answered, "I am listening."

nkjv@2Samuel:20:18 @ So she spoke, saying, "They used to talk in former times, saying, "They shall surely seek guidance at Abel,' and so they would end disputes.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:19 @ I am among the peaceable and faithful in Israel. You seek to destroy a city and a mother in Israel. Why would you swallow up the inheritance of the LORD?"

nkjv@2Samuel:20:20 @ And Joab answered and said, "Far be it, far be it from me, that I should swallow up or destroy!

nkjv@2Samuel:20:21 @ That is not so. But a man from the mountains of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bichri by name, has raised his hand against the king, against David. Deliver him only, and I will depart from the city." So the woman said to Joab, "Watch, his head will be thrown to you over the wall."

nkjv@2Samuel:20:22 @ Then the woman in her wisdom went to all the people. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and threw it out to Joab. Then he blew a trumpet, and they withdrew from the city, every man to his tent. So Joab returned to the king at Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Samuel:20:23 @ And Joab was over all the army of Israel; Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the Cherethites and the Pelethites;

nkjv@2Samuel:20:24 @ Adoram was in charge of revenue; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;

nkjv@2Samuel:20:25 @ Sheva was scribe; Zadok and Abiathar were the priests;

nkjv@2Samuel:20:26 @ and Ira the Jairite was a chief minister under David.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:1 @ Now there was a famine in the days of David for three years, year after year; and David inquired of the LORD. And the LORD answered, "It is because of Saul and his bloodthirsty house, because he killed the Gibeonites."

nkjv@2Samuel:21:2 @ So the king called the Gibeonites and spoke to them. Now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; the children of Israel had sworn protection to them, but Saul had sought to kill them in his zeal for the children of Israel and Judah.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:3 @ Therefore David said to the Gibeonites, "What shall I do for you? And with what shall I make atonement, that you may bless the inheritance of the LORD?"

nkjv@2Samuel:21:4 @ And the Gibeonites said to him, "We will have no silver or gold from Saul or from his house, nor shall you kill any man in Israel for us." So he said, "Whatever you say, I will do for you."

nkjv@2Samuel:21:6 @ let seven men of his descendants be delivered to us, and we will hang them before the LORD in Gibeah of Saul, whom the LORD chose." And the king said, "I will give them."

nkjv@2Samuel:21:7 @ But the king spared Mephibosheth the son of Jonathan, the son of Saul, because of the LORD's oath that was between them, between David and Jonathan the son of Saul.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:8 @ So the king took Armoni and Mephibosheth, the two sons of Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, whom she bore to Saul, and the five sons of Michal the daughter of Saul, whom she brought up for Adriel the son of Barzillai the Meholathite;

nkjv@2Samuel:21:9 @ and he delivered them into the hands of the Gibeonites, and they hanged them on the hill before the LORD. So they fell, all seven together, and were put to death in the days of harvest, in the first days, in the beginning of barley harvest.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:10 @ Now Rizpah the daughter of Aiah took sackcloth and spread it for herself on the rock, from the beginning of harvest until the late rains poured on them from heaven. And she did not allow the birds of the air to rest on them by day nor the beasts of the field by night.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:11 @ And David was told what Rizpah the daughter of Aiah, the concubine of Saul, had done.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:12 @ Then David went and took the bones of Saul, and the bones of Jonathan his son, from the men of Jabesh Gilead who had stolen them from the street of Beth Shan, where the Philistines had hung them up, after the Philistines had struck down Saul in Gilboa.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:13 @ So he brought up the bones of Saul and the bones of Jonathan his son from there; and they gathered the bones of those who had been hanged.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:14 @ They buried the bones of Saul and Jonathan his son in the country of Benjamin in Zelah, in the tomb of Kish his father. So they performed all that the king commanded. And after that God heeded the prayer for the land.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:15 @ When the Philistines were at war again with Israel, David and his servants with him went down and fought against the Philistines; and David grew faint.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:16 @ Then Ishbi-Benob, who was one of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose bronze spear was three hundred shekels, who was bearing a new sword, thought he could kill David.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:17 @ But Abishai the son of Zeruiah came to his aid, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, "You shall go out no more with us to battle, lest you quench the lamp of Israel."

nkjv@2Samuel:21:18 @ Now it happened afterward that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob. Then Sibbechai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was one of the sons of the giant.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:19 @ Again there was war at Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.

nkjv@2Samuel:21:20 @ Yet again there was war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; and he also was born to the giant.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:1 @ Now these are the last words of David. Thus says David the son of Jesse; Thus says the man raised up on high, The anointed of the God of Jacob, And the sweet psalmist of Israel:

nkjv@2Samuel:23:2 @ "The Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, And His word was on my tongue.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:3 @ The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me: "He who rules over men must be just, Ruling in the fear of God.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:4 @ And he shall be like the light of the morning when the sun rises, A morning without clouds, Like the tender grass springing out of the earth, By clear shining after rain.'

nkjv@2Samuel:23:5 @ "Although my house is not so with God, Yet He has made with me an everlasting covenant, Ordered in all things and secure. For this is all my salvation and all my desire; Will He not make it increase?

nkjv@2Samuel:23:6 @ But the sons of rebellion shall all be as thorns thrust away, Because they cannot be taken with hands.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:7 @ But the man who touches them Must be armed with iron and the shaft of a spear, And they shall be utterly burned with fire in their place."

nkjv@2Samuel:23:8 @ These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb-Basshebeth the Tachmonite, chief among the captains. He was called Adino the Eznite, because he had killed eight hundred men at one time.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:9 @ And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David when they defied the Philistines who were gathered there for battle, and the men of Israel had retreated.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:10 @ He arose and attacked the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand stuck to the sword. The LORD brought about a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to plunder.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:11 @ And after him was Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. The Philistines had gathered together into a troop where there was a piece of ground full of lentils. So the people fled from the Philistines.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:12 @ But he stationed himself in the middle of the field, defended it, and killed the Philistines. So the LORD brought about a great victory.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:13 @ Then three of the thirty chief men went down at harvest time and came to David at the cave of Adullam. And the troop of Philistines encamped in the Valley of Rephaim.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:14 @ David was then in the stronghold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:15 @ And David said with longing, "Oh, that someone would give me a drink of the water from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!"

nkjv@2Samuel:23:16 @ So the three mighty men broke through the camp of the Philistines, drew water from the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, and took it and brought it to David. Nevertheless he would not drink it, but poured it out to the LORD.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:17 @ And he said, "Far be it from me, O LORD, that I should do this! Is this not the blood of the men who went in jeopardy of their lives?" Therefore he would not drink it. These things were done by the three mighty men.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:18 @ Now Abishai the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of another three. He lifted his spear against three hundred men, killed them, and won a name among these three.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:19 @ Was he not the most honored of three? Therefore he became their captain. However, he did not attain to the first three.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:20 @ Benaiah was the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man from Kabzeel, who had done many deeds. He had killed two lion-like heroes of Moab. He also had gone down and killed a lion in the midst of a pit on a snowy day.

nkjv@2Samuel:23:21 @ And he killed an Egyptian, a spectacular man. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand; so he went down to him with a staff, wrested the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:8 @ So when they had gone through all the land, they came to Jerusalem at the end of nine months and twenty days.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:9 @ Then Joab gave the sum of the number of the people to the king. And there were in Israel eight hundred thousand valiant men who drew the sword, and the men of Judah were five hundred thousand men.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:10 @ And David's heart condemned him after he had numbered the people. So David said to the LORD, "I have sinned greatly in what I have done; but now, I pray, O LORD, take away the iniquity of Your servant, for I have done very foolishly."

nkjv@2Samuel:24:11 @ Now when David arose in the morning, the word of the LORD came to the prophet Gad, David's seer, saying,

nkjv@2Samuel:24:12 @ "Go and tell David, "Thus says the LORD: "I offer you three things; choose one of them for yourself, that I may do it to you.""'

Or shall you flee three months before your enemies, while they pursue you? Or shall there be three days' plague in your land? Now consider and see what answer I should take back to Him who sent me."

nkjv@2Samuel:24:14 @ And David said to Gad, "I am in great distress. Please let us fall into the hand of the LORD, for His mercies are great; but do not let me fall into the hand of man."

nkjv@2Samuel:24:15 @ So the LORD sent a plague upon Israel from the morning till the appointed time. From Dan to Beersheba seventy thousand men of the people died.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:16 @ And when the angel stretched out His hand over Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD relented from the destruction, and said to the angel who was destroying the people, "It is enough; now restrain your hand." And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:17 @ Then David spoke to the LORD when he saw the angel who was striking the people, and said, "Surely I have sinned, and I have done wickedly; but these sheep, what have they done? Let Your hand, I pray, be against me and against my father's house."

nkjv@2Samuel:24:19 @ So David, according to the word of Gad, went up as the LORD commanded.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:20 @ Now Araunah looked, and saw the king and his servants coming toward him. So Araunah went out and bowed before the king with his face to the ground.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:21 @ Then Araunah said, "Why has my lord the king come to his servant?" And David said, "To buy the threshing floor from you, to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be withdrawn from the people."

nkjv@2Samuel:24:22 @ Now Araunah said to David, "Let my lord the king take and offer up whatever seems good to him. Look, here are oxen for burnt sacrifice, and threshing implements and the yokes of the oxen for wood.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:23 @ All these, O king, Araunah has given to the king." And Araunah said to the king, "May the LORD your God accept you."

nkjv@2Samuel:24:24 @ Then the king said to Araunah, "No, but I will surely buy it from you for a price; nor will I offer burnt offerings to the LORD my God with that which costs me nothing." So David bought the threshing floor and the oxen for fifty shekels of silver.

nkjv@2Samuel:24:25 @ And David built there an altar to the LORD, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. So the LORD heeded the prayers for the land, and the plague was withdrawn from Israel.

nkjv@1Kings:1:3 @ So they sought for a lovely young woman throughout all the territory of Israel, and found Abishag the Shunammite, and brought her to the king.

nkjv@1Kings:1:15 @ So Bathsheba went into the chamber to the king. (Now the king was very old, and Abishag the Shunammite was serving the king.)

nkjv@1Kings:1:22 @ And just then, while she was still talking with the king, Nathan the prophet also came in.

nkjv@1Kings:1:23 @ So they told the king, saying, "Here is Nathan the prophet." And when he came in before the king, he bowed down before the king with his face to the ground.

nkjv@1Kings:1:28 @ Then King David answered and said, "Call Bathsheba to me." So she came into the king's presence and stood before the king.

nkjv@1Kings:1:32 @ And King David said, "Call to me Zadok the priest, Nathan the prophet, and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada." So they came before the king.

nkjv@1Kings:1:36 @ Benaiah the son of Jehoiada answered the king and said, "Amen! May the LORD God of my lord the king say so too.

nkjv@1Kings:1:42 @ While he was still speaking, there came Jonathan, the son of Abiathar the priest. And Adonijah said to him, "Come in, for you are a prominent man, and bring good news."

nkjv@1Kings:1:47 @ And moreover the king's servants have gone to bless our lord King David, saying, "May God make the name of Solomon better than your name, and may He make his throne greater than your throne.' Then the king bowed himself on the bed.

nkjv@1Kings:1:53 @ So King Solomon sent them to bring him down from the altar. And he came and fell down before King Solomon; and Solomon said to him, "Go to your house."

nkjv@1Kings:2:5 @ "Moreover you know also what Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, and what he did to the two commanders of the armies of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner and Amasa the son of Jether, whom he killed.

nkjv@1Kings:2:7 @ "But show kindness to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be among those who eat at your table, for so they came to me when I fled from Absalom your brother.

nkjv@1Kings:2:13 @ Now Adonijah the son of Haggith came to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon. So she said, "Do you come peaceably?" And he said, "Peaceably."

nkjv@1Kings:2:17 @ Then he said, "Please speak to King Solomon, for he will not refuse you, that he may give me Abishag the Shunammite as wife."

nkjv@1Kings:2:21 @ So she said, "Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to Adonijah your brother as wife."

nkjv@1Kings:2:22 @ And King Solomon answered and said to his mother, "Now why do you ask Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also--for he is my older brother--for him, and for Abiathar the priest, and for Joab the son of Zeruiah."

nkjv@1Kings:2:28 @ Then news came to Joab, for Joab had defected to Adonijah, though he had not defected to Absalom. So Joab fled to the tabernacle of the LORD, and took hold of the horns of the altar.

nkjv@1Kings:2:32 @ So the LORD will return his blood on his head, because he struck down two men more righteous and better than he, and killed them with the sword--Abner the son of Ner, the commander of the army of Israel, and Amasa the son of Jether, the commander of the army of Judah--though my father David did not know it.

nkjv@1Kings:3:2 @ Meanwhile the people sacrificed at the high places, because there was no house built for the name of the LORD until those days.

nkjv@1Kings:3:5 @ At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, "Ask! What shall I give you?"

nkjv@1Kings:3:7 @ Now, O LORD my God, You have made Your servant king instead of my father David, but I am a little child; I do not know how to go out or come in.

nkjv@1Kings:4:19 @ Geber the son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, in the country of Sihon king of the Amorites, and of Og king of Bashan. He was the only governor who was in the land.

nkjv@1Kings:4:24 @ For he had dominion over all the region on this side of the River from Tiphsah even to Gaza, namely over all the kings on this side of the River; and he had peace on every side all around him.

nkjv@1Kings:4:27 @ And these governors, each man in his month, provided food for King Solomon and for all who came to King Solomon's table. There was no lack in their supply.

nkjv@1Kings:4:31 @ For he was wiser than all men--than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his fame was in all the surrounding nations.

nkjv@1Kings:4:34 @ And men of all nations, from all the kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom, came to hear the wisdom of Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:5:1 @ Now Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon, because he heard that they had anointed him king in place of his father, for Hiram had always loved David.

nkjv@1Kings:5:2 @ Then Solomon sent to Hiram, saying:

nkjv@1Kings:5:3 @ You know how my father David could not build a house for the name of the LORD his God because of the wars which were fought against him on every side, until the LORD put his foes under the soles of his feet.

nkjv@1Kings:5:5 @ And behold, I propose to build a house for the name of the LORD my God, as the LORD spoke to my father David, saying, "Your son, whom I will set on your throne in your place, he shall build the house for My name."

nkjv@1Kings:5:8 @ Then Hiram sent to Solomon, saying: 4 I have considered the message which you sent me, and I will do all you desire concerning the cedar and cypress logs.

nkjv@1Kings:5:10 @ Then Hiram gave Solomon cedar and cypress logs according to all his desire.

nkjv@1Kings:5:11 @ And Solomon gave Hiram twenty thousand kors of wheat as food for his household, and twenty kors of pressed oil. Thus Solomon gave to Hiram year by year.

nkjv@1Kings:5:12 @ So the LORD gave Solomon wisdom, as He had promised him; and there was peace between Hiram and Solomon, and the two of them made a treaty together.

nkjv@1Kings:5:14 @ And he sent them to Lebanon, ten thousand a month in shifts: they were one month in Lebanon and two months at home; Adoniram was in charge of the labor force.

nkjv@1Kings:5:18 @ So Solomon's builders, Hiram's builders, and the Gebalites quarried them; and they prepared timber and stones to build the temple.

nkjv@1Kings:6:1 @ And it came to pass in the four hundred and eightieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, in the fourth year of Solomon's reign over Israel, in the month of Ziv, which is the second month, that he began to build the house of the LORD.

nkjv@1Kings:6:4 @ And he made for the house windows with beveled frames.

nkjv@1Kings:6:5 @ Against the wall of the temple he built chambers all around, against the walls of the temple, all around the sanctuary and the inner sanctuary. Thus he made side chambers all around it.

nkjv@1Kings:6:6 @ The lowest chamber was five cubits wide, the middle was six cubits wide, and the third was seven cubits wide; for he made narrow ledges around the outside of the temple, so that the support beams would not be fastened into the walls of the temple.

nkjv@1Kings:6:9 @ So he built the temple and finished it, and he paneled the temple with beams and boards of cedar.

nkjv@1Kings:6:10 @ And he built side chambers against the entire temple, each five cubits high; they were attached to the temple with cedar beams.

nkjv@1Kings:6:11 @ Then the word of the LORD came to Solomon, saying:

nkjv@1Kings:6:13 @ And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake My people Israel."

nkjv@1Kings:6:18 @ The inside of the temple was cedar, carved with ornamental buds and open flowers. All was cedar; there was no stone to be seen.

nkjv@1Kings:6:25 @ And the other cherub was ten cubits; both cherubim were of the same size and shape.

nkjv@1Kings:6:36 @ And he built the inner court with three rows of hewn stone and a row of cedar beams.

nkjv@1Kings:7:2 @ He also built the House of the Forest of Lebanon; its length was one hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits, with four rows of cedar pillars, and cedar beams on the pillars.

nkjv@1Kings:7:3 @ And it was paneled with cedar above the beams that were on forty-five pillars, fifteen to a row.

nkjv@1Kings:7:4 @ There were windows with beveled frames in three rows, and window was opposite window in three tiers.

nkjv@1Kings:7:5 @ And all the doorways and doorposts had rectangular frames; and window was opposite window in three tiers.

nkjv@1Kings:7:12 @ The great court was enclosed with three rows of hewn stones and a row of cedar beams. So were the inner court of the house of the LORD and the vestibule of the temple.

nkjv@1Kings:7:13 @ Now King Solomon sent and brought Huram from Tyre.

nkjv@1Kings:7:14 @ He was the son of a widow from the tribe of Naphtali, and his father was a man of Tyre, a bronze worker; he was filled with wisdom and understanding and skill in working with all kinds of bronze work. So he came to King Solomon and did all his work.

nkjv@1Kings:7:21 @ Then he set up the pillars by the vestibule of the temple; he set up the pillar on the right and called its name Jachin, and he set up the pillar on the left and called its name Boaz.

nkjv@1Kings:7:24 @ Below its brim were ornamental buds encircling it all around, ten to a cubit, all the way around the Sea. The ornamental buds were cast in two rows when it was cast.

nkjv@1Kings:7:28 @ And this was the design of the carts: They had panels, and the panels were between frames;

nkjv@1Kings:7:29 @ on the panels that were between the frames were lions, oxen, and cherubim. And on the frames was a pedestal on top. Below the lions and oxen were wreaths of plaited work.

nkjv@1Kings:7:31 @ Its opening inside the crown at the top was one cubit in diameter; and the opening was round, shaped like a pedestal, one and a half cubits in outside diameter; and also on the opening were engravings, but the panels were square, not round.

nkjv@1Kings:7:35 @ On the top of the cart, at the height of half a cubit, it was perfectly round. And on the top of the cart, its flanges and its panels were of the same casting.

nkjv@1Kings:7:37 @ Thus he made the ten carts. All of them were of the same mold, one measure, and one shape.

nkjv@1Kings:7:40 @ Huram made the lavers and the shovels and the bowls. So Huram finished doing all the work that he was to do for King Solomon for the house of the LORD:

nkjv@1Kings:7:45 @ the pots, the shovels, and the bowls. All these articles which Huram made for King Solomon for the house of the LORD were of burnished bronze.

nkjv@1Kings:7:49 @ the lampstands of pure gold, five on the right side and five on the left in front of the inner sanctuary, with the flowers and the lamps and the wick-trimmers of gold;

nkjv@1Kings:8:3 @ So all the elders of Israel came, and the priests took up the ark.

nkjv@1Kings:8:9 @ Nothing was in the ark except the two tablets of stone which Moses put there at Horeb, when the LORD made a covenant with the children of Israel, when they came out of the land of Egypt.

nkjv@1Kings:8:10 @ And it came to pass, when the priests came out of the holy place, that the cloud filled the house of the LORD,

nkjv@1Kings:8:16 @ "Since the day that I brought My people Israel out of Egypt, I have chosen no city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house, that My name might be there; but I chose David to be over My people Israel.'

nkjv@1Kings:8:17 @ Now it was in the heart of my father David to build a temple for the name of the LORD God of Israel.

nkjv@1Kings:8:18 @ But the LORD said to my father David, "Whereas it was in your heart to build a temple for My name, you did well that it was in your heart.

nkjv@1Kings:8:19 @ Nevertheless you shall not build the temple, but your son who will come from your body, he shall build the temple for My name.'

nkjv@1Kings:8:20 @ So the LORD has fulfilled His word which He spoke; and I have filled the position of my father David, and sit on the throne of Israel, as the LORD promised; and I have built a temple for the name of the LORD God of Israel.

nkjv@1Kings:8:29 @ that Your eyes may be open toward this temple night and day, toward the place of which You said, "My name shall be there,' that You may hear the prayer which Your servant makes toward this place.

nkjv@1Kings:8:64 @ On the same day the king consecrated the middle of the court that was in front of the house of the LORD; for there he offered burnt offerings, grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings, because the bronze altar that was before the LORD was too small to receive the burnt offerings, the grain offerings, and the fat of the peace offerings.

nkjv@1Kings:8:65 @ At that time Solomon held a feast, and all Israel with him, a great assembly from the entrance of Hamath to the Brook of Egypt, before the LORD our God, seven days and seven more days--fourteen days.

nkjv@1Kings:9:9 @ Then they will answer, "Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have embraced other gods, and worshiped them and served them; therefore the LORD has brought all this calamity on them."'

nkjv@1Kings:9:11 @ (Hiram the king of Tyre had supplied Solomon with cedar and cypress and gold, as much as he desired), that King Solomon then gave Hiram twenty cities in the land of Galilee.

nkjv@1Kings:9:12 @ Then Hiram went from Tyre to see the cities which Solomon had given him, but they did not please him.

nkjv@1Kings:9:14 @ Then Hiram sent the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold.

nkjv@1Kings:9:20 @ All the people who were left of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, who were not of the children of Israel--

nkjv@1Kings:9:24 @ But Pharaoh's daughter came up from the City of David to her house which Solomon had built for her. Then he built the Millo.

nkjv@1Kings:9:27 @ Then Hiram sent his servants with the fleet, seamen who knew the sea, to work with the servants of Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:10:1 @ Now when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to test him with hard questions.

nkjv@1Kings:10:2 @ She came to Jerusalem with a very great retinue, with camels that bore spices, very much gold, and precious stones; and when she came to Solomon, she spoke with him about all that was in her heart.

nkjv@1Kings:10:7 @ However I did not believe the words until I came and saw with my own eyes; and indeed the half was not told me. Your wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame of which I heard.

nkjv@1Kings:10:10 @ Then she gave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, spices in great quantity, and precious stones. There never again came such abundance of spices as the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:10:11 @ Also, the ships of Hiram, which brought gold from Ophir, brought great quantities of almug wood and precious stones from Ophir.

nkjv@1Kings:10:12 @ And the king made steps of the almug wood for the house of the LORD and for the king's house, also harps and stringed instruments for singers. There never again came such almug wood, nor has the like been seen to this day.

nkjv@1Kings:10:14 @ The weight of gold that came to Solomon yearly was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,

nkjv@1Kings:10:16 @ And King Solomon made two hundred large shields of hammered gold; six hundred shekels of gold went into each shield.

nkjv@1Kings:10:17 @ He also made three hundred shields of hammered gold; three minas of gold went into each shield. The king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.

nkjv@1Kings:10:22 @ For the king had merchant ships at sea with the fleet of Hiram. Once every three years the merchant ships came bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and monkeys.

nkjv@1Kings:10:27 @ The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedar trees as abundant as the sycamores which are in the lowland.

nkjv@1Kings:11:1 @ But King Solomon loved many foreign women, as well as the daughter of Pharaoh: women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites--

nkjv@1Kings:11:5 @ For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.

nkjv@1Kings:11:7 @ Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, on the hill that is east of Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the people of Ammon.

nkjv@1Kings:11:9 @ So the LORD became angry with Solomon, because his heart had turned from the LORD God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,

nkjv@1Kings:11:18 @ Then they arose from Midian and came to Paran; and they took men with them from Paran and came to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house, apportioned food for him, and gave him land.

nkjv@1Kings:11:20 @ Then the sister of Tahpenes bore him Genubath his son, whom Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh's house. And Genubath was in Pharaoh's household among the sons of Pharaoh.

nkjv@1Kings:11:24 @ So he gathered men to him and became captain over a band of raiders, when David killed those of Zobah. And they went to Damascus and dwelt there, and reigned in Damascus.

nkjv@1Kings:11:26 @ Then Solomon's servant, Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zereda, whose mother's name was Zeruah, a widow, also rebelled against the king.

nkjv@1Kings:11:27 @ And this is what caused him to rebel against the king: Solomon had built the Millo and repaired the damages to the City of David his father.

nkjv@1Kings:11:28 @ The man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor; and Solomon, seeing that the young man was industrious, made him the officer over all the labor force of the house of Joseph.

nkjv@1Kings:11:29 @ Now it happened at that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite met him on the way; and he had clothed himself with a new garment, and the two were alone in the field.

nkjv@1Kings:11:31 @ And he said to Jeroboam, "Take for yourself ten pieces, for thus says the LORD, the God of Israel: "Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and will give ten tribes to you

nkjv@1Kings:11:33 @ because they have forsaken Me, and worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the people of Ammon, and have not walked in My ways to do what is right in My eyes and keep My statutes and My judgments, as did his father David.

nkjv@1Kings:11:36 @ And to his son I will give one tribe, that My servant David may always have a lamp before Me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for Myself, to put My name there.

nkjv@1Kings:11:40 @ Solomon therefore sought to kill Jeroboam. But Jeroboam arose and fled to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:11:43 @ Then Solomon rested with his fathers, and was buried in the City of David his father. And Rehoboam his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@1Kings:12:1 @ And Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had gone to Shechem to make him king.

nkjv@1Kings:12:2 @ So it happened, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard it (he was still in Egypt, for he had fled from the presence of King Solomon and had been dwelling in Egypt),

nkjv@1Kings:12:3 @ that they sent and called him. Then Jeroboam and the whole assembly of Israel came and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,

nkjv@1Kings:12:6 @ Then King Rehoboam consulted the elders who stood before his father Solomon while he still lived, and he said, "How do you advise me to answer these people?"

nkjv@1Kings:12:12 @ So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had directed, saying, "Come back to me the third day."

nkjv@1Kings:12:15 @ So the king did not listen to the people; for the turn of events was from the LORD, that He might fulfill His word, which the LORD had spoken by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

nkjv@1Kings:12:17 @ But Rehoboam reigned over the children of Israel who dwelt in the cities of Judah.

nkjv@1Kings:12:18 @ Then King Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was in charge of the revenue; but all Israel stoned him with stones, and he died. Therefore King Rehoboam mounted his chariot in haste to flee to Jerusalem.

nkjv@1Kings:12:20 @ Now it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had come back, they sent for him and called him to the congregation, and made him king over all Israel. There was none who followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.

nkjv@1Kings:12:21 @ And when Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, he assembled all the house of Judah with the tribe of Benjamin, one hundred and eighty thousand chosen men who were warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, that he might restore the kingdom to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.

nkjv@1Kings:12:22 @ But the word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,

nkjv@1Kings:12:23 @ "Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, to all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the rest of the people, saying,

nkjv@1Kings:12:25 @ Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the mountains of Ephraim, and dwelt there. Also he went out from there and built Penuel.

nkjv@1Kings:12:26 @ And Jeroboam said in his heart, "Now the kingdom may return to the house of David:

nkjv@1Kings:12:27 @ If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn back to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah, and they will kill me and go back to Rehoboam king of Judah."

nkjv@1Kings:12:30 @ Now this thing became a sin, for the people went to worship before the one as far as Dan.

nkjv@1Kings:12:32 @ Jeroboam ordained a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, like the feast that was in Judah, and offered sacrifices on the altar. So he did at Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made. And at Bethel he installed the priests of the high places which he had made.

nkjv@1Kings:13:1 @ And behold, a man of God went from Judah to Bethel by the word of the LORD, and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.

nkjv@1Kings:13:2 @ Then he cried out against the altar by the word of the LORD, and said, "O altar, altar! Thus says the LORD: "Behold, a child, Josiah by name, shall be born to the house of David; and on you he shall sacrifice the priests of the high places who burn incense on you, and men's bones shall be burned on you."'

nkjv@1Kings:13:3 @ And he gave a sign the same day, saying, "This is the sign which the LORD has spoken: Surely the altar shall split apart, and the ashes on it shall be poured out."

nkjv@1Kings:13:4 @ So it came to pass when King Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, who cried out against the altar in Bethel, that he stretched out his hand from the altar, saying, "Arrest him!" Then his hand, which he stretched out toward him, withered, so that he could not pull it back to himself.

nkjv@1Kings:13:6 @ Then the king answered and said to the man of God, "Please entreat the favor of the LORD your God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored to me." So the man of God entreated the LORD, and the king's hand was restored to him, and became as before.

nkjv@1Kings:13:9 @ For so it was commanded me by the word of the LORD, saying, "You shall not eat bread, nor drink water, nor return by the same way you came."'

nkjv@1Kings:13:10 @ So he went another way and did not return by the way he came to Bethel.

nkjv@1Kings:13:11 @ Now an old prophet dwelt in Bethel, and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel; they also told their father the words which he had spoken to the king.

nkjv@1Kings:13:12 @ And their father said to them, "Which way did he go?" For his sons had seen which way the man of God went who came from Judah.

nkjv@1Kings:13:14 @ and went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak. Then he said to him, "Are you the man of God who came from Judah?" And he said, "I am."

nkjv@1Kings:13:17 @ For I have been told by the word of the LORD, "You shall not eat bread nor drink water there, nor return by going the way you came."'

nkjv@1Kings:13:18 @ He said to him, "I too am a prophet as you are, and an angel spoke to me by the word of the LORD, saying, "Bring him back with you to your house, that he may eat bread and drink water."' (He was lying to him.)

nkjv@1Kings:13:20 @ Now it happened, as they sat at the table, that the word of the LORD came to the prophet who had brought him back;

nkjv@1Kings:13:21 @ and he cried out to the man of God who came from Judah, saying, "Thus says the LORD: "Because you have disobeyed the word of the LORD, and have not kept the commandment which the LORD your God commanded you,

nkjv@1Kings:13:22 @ but you came back, ate bread, and drank water in the place of which the LORD said to you, "Eat no bread and drink no water," your corpse shall not come to the tomb of your fathers."'

nkjv@1Kings:13:29 @ And the prophet took up the corpse of the man of God, laid it on the donkey, and brought it back. So the old prophet came to the city to mourn, and to bury him.

nkjv@1Kings:13:31 @ So it was, after he had buried him, that he spoke to his sons, saying, "When I am dead, then bury me in the tomb where the man of God is buried; lay my bones beside his bones.

nkjv@1Kings:13:32 @ For the saying which he cried out by the word of the LORD against the altar in Bethel, and against all the shrines on the high places which are in the cities of Samaria, will surely come to pass."

nkjv@1Kings:13:33 @ After this event Jeroboam did not turn from his evil way, but again he made priests from every class of people for the high places; whoever wished, he consecrated him, and he became one of the priests of the high places.

nkjv@1Kings:13:34 @ And this thing was the sin of the house of Jeroboam, so as to exterminate and destroy it from the face of the earth.

nkjv@1Kings:14:1 @ At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam became sick.

nkjv@1Kings:14:2 @ And Jeroboam said to his wife, "Please arise, and disguise yourself, that they may not recognize you as the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Shiloh. Indeed, Ahijah the prophet is there, who told me that I would be king over this people.

nkjv@1Kings:14:4 @ And Jeroboam's wife did so; she arose and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. But Ahijah could not see, for his eyes were glazed by reason of his age.

nkjv@1Kings:14:5 @ Now the LORD had said to Ahijah, "Here is the wife of Jeroboam, coming to ask you something about her son, for he is sick. Thus and thus you shall say to her; for it will be, when she comes in, that she will pretend to be another woman."

nkjv@1Kings:14:6 @ And so it was, when Ahijah heard the sound of her footsteps as she came through the door, he said, "Come in, wife of Jeroboam. Why do you pretend to be another person? For I have been sent to you with bad news.

nkjv@1Kings:14:7 @ Go, tell Jeroboam, "Thus says the LORD God of Israel: "Because I exalted you from among the people, and made you ruler over My people Israel,

nkjv@1Kings:14:10 @ therefore behold! I will bring disaster on the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam every male in Israel, bond and free; I will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as one takes away refuse until it is all gone.

nkjv@1Kings:14:13 @ And all Israel shall mourn for him and bury him, for he is the only one of Jeroboam who shall come to the grave, because in him there is found something good toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.

nkjv@1Kings:14:16 @ And He will give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, who sinned and who made Israel sin."

nkjv@1Kings:14:17 @ Then Jeroboam's wife arose and departed, and came to Tirzah. When she came to the threshold of the house, the child died.

nkjv@1Kings:14:19 @ Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he made war and how he reigned, indeed they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

nkjv@1Kings:14:20 @ The period that Jeroboam reigned was twenty-two years. So he rested with his fathers. Then Nadab his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@1Kings:14:21 @ And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king. He reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there. His mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonitess.

nkjv@1Kings:14:25 @ It happened in the fifth year of King Rehoboam that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem.

nkjv@1Kings:14:27 @ Then King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who guarded the doorway of the king's house.

nkjv@1Kings:14:30 @ And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

nkjv@1Kings:14:31 @ So Rehoboam rested with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David. His mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonitess. Then Abijam his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@1Kings:15:1 @ In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam the son of Nebat, Abijam became king over Judah.

nkjv@1Kings:15:2 @ He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maachah the granddaughter of Abishalom.

nkjv@1Kings:15:4 @ Nevertheless for David's sake the LORD his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, by setting up his son after him and by establishing Jerusalem;

nkjv@1Kings:15:8 @ So Abijam rested with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David. Then Asa his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@1Kings:15:9 @ In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa became king over Judah.

nkjv@1Kings:15:10 @ And he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem. His grandmother's name was Maachah the granddaughter of Abishalom.

nkjv@1Kings:15:17 @ And Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.

nkjv@1Kings:15:18 @ Then Asa took all the silver and gold that was left in the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the treasuries of the king's house, and delivered them into the hand of his servants.

nkjv@1Kings:15:25 @ Now Nadab the son of Jeroboam became king over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel two years.

nkjv@1Kings:15:29 @ And it was so, when he became king, that he killed all the house of Jeroboam. He did not leave to Jeroboam anyone that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according to the word of the LORD which He had spoken by His servant Ahijah the Shilonite,

nkjv@2Kings:5:21 @ So Gehazi pursued Naaman. When Naaman saw him running after him, he got down from the chariot to meet him, and said, "Is all well?"

nkjv@2Kings:5:23 @ So Naaman said, "Please, take two talents." And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and handed them to two of his servants; and they carried them on ahead of him.

nkjv@2Kings:6:2 @ Please, let us go to the Jordan, and let every man take a beam from there, and let us make there a place where we may dwell." So he answered, "Go."

nkjv@2Kings:6:4 @ So he went with them. And when they came to the Jordan, they cut down trees.

nkjv@2Kings:6:8 @ Now the king of Syria was making war against Israel; and he consulted with his servants, saying, "My camp will be in such and such a place."

nkjv@2Kings:6:14 @ Therefore he sent horses and chariots and a great army there, and they came by night and surrounded the city.

nkjv@2Kings:6:18 @ So when the Syrians came down to him, Elisha prayed to the LORD, and said, "Strike this people, I pray, with blindness." And He struck them with blindness according to the word of Elisha.

nkjv@2Kings:6:24 @ And it happened after this that Ben-Hadad king of Syria gathered all his army, and went up and besieged Samaria.

nkjv@2Kings:6:25 @ And there was a great famine in Samaria; and indeed they besieged it until a donkey's head was sold for eighty shekels of silver, and one-fourth of a kab of dove droppings for five shekels of silver.

nkjv@2Kings:6:32 @ But Elisha was sitting in his house, and the elders were sitting with him. And the king sent a man ahead of him, but before the messenger came to him, he said to the elders, "Do you see how this son of a murderer has sent someone to take away my head?

nkjv@2Kings:7:8 @ And when these lepers came to the outskirts of the camp, they went into one tent and ate and drank, and carried from it silver and gold and clothing, and went and hid them; then they came back and entered another tent, and carried some from there also, and went and hid it.

nkjv@2Kings:7:10 @ So they went and called to the gatekeepers of the city, and told them, saying, "We went to the Syrian camp, and surprisingly no one was there, not a human sound--only horses and donkeys tied, and the tents intact."

nkjv@2Kings:17:15 @ And they rejected His statutes and His covenant that He had made with their fathers, and His testimonies which He had testified against them; they followed idols, became idolaters, and went after the nations who were all around them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them that they should not do like them.

nkjv@2Kings:17:21 @ For He tore Israel from the house of David, and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king. Then Jeroboam drove Israel from following the LORD, and made them commit a great sin.

nkjv@2Kings:17:22 @ For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they did not depart from them,

nkjv@2Kings:17:24 @ Then the king of Assyria brought people from Babylon, Cuthah, Ava, Hamath, and from Sepharvaim, and placed them in the cities of Samaria instead of the children of Israel; and they took possession of Samaria and dwelt in its cities.

nkjv@2Kings:17:25 @ And it was so, at the beginning of their dwelling there, that they did not fear the LORD; therefore the LORD sent lions among them, which killed some of them.

nkjv@2Kings:17:26 @ So they spoke to the king of Assyria, saying, "The nations whom you have removed and placed in the cities of Samaria do not know the rituals of the God of the land; therefore He has sent lions among them, and indeed, they are killing them because they do not know the rituals of the God of the land."

nkjv@2Kings:17:28 @ Then one of the priests whom they had carried away from Samaria came and dwelt in Bethel, and taught them how they should fear the LORD.

nkjv@2Kings:17:29 @ However every nation continued to make gods of its own, and put them in the shrines on the high places which the Samaritans had made, every nation in the cities where they dwelt.

nkjv@1Chronicles:18:6 @ Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became David's servants, and brought tribute. So the LORD preserved David wherever he went.

nkjv@1Chronicles:18:8 @ Also from Tibhath and from Chun, cities of Hadadezer, David brought a large amount of bronze, with which Solomon made the bronze Sea, the pillars, and the articles of bronze.

nkjv@1Chronicles:18:9 @ Now when Tou king of Hamath heard that David had defeated all the army of Hadadezer king of Zobah,

nkjv@1Chronicles:18:10 @ he sent Hadoram his son to King David, to greet him and bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him (for Hadadezer had been at war with Tou); and Hadoram brought with him all kinds of articles of gold, silver, and bronze.

nkjv@1Chronicles:18:11 @ King David also dedicated these to the LORD, along with the silver and gold that he had brought from all these nations--from Edom, from Moab, from the people of Ammon, from the Philistines, and from Amalek.

nkjv@1Chronicles:18:13 @ He also put garrisons in Edom, and all the Edomites became David's servants. And the LORD preserved David wherever he went.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:1 @ It happened after this that Nahash the king of the people of Ammon died, and his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:2 @ Then David said, "I will show kindness to Hanun the son of Nahash, because his father showed kindness to me." So David sent messengers to comfort him concerning his father. And David's servants came to Hanun in the land of the people of Ammon to comfort him.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:3 @ And the princes of the people of Ammon said to Hanun, "Do you think that David really honors your father because he has sent comforters to you? Did his servants not come to you to search and to overthrow and to spy out the land?"

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:5 @ Then some went and told David about the men; and he sent to meet them, because the men were greatly ashamed. And the king said, "Wait at Jericho until your beards have grown, and then return."

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:6 @ When the people of Ammon saw that they had made themselves repulsive to David, Hanun and the people of Ammon sent a thousand talents of silver to hire for themselves chariots and horsemen from Mesopotamia, from Syrian Maacah, and from Zobah.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:7 @ So they hired for themselves thirty-two thousand chariots, with the king of Maacah and his people, who came and encamped before Medeba. Also the people of Ammon gathered together from their cities, and came to battle.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:9 @ Then the people of Ammon came out and put themselves in battle array before the gate of the city, and the kings who had come were by themselves in the field.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:11 @ And the rest of the people he put under the command of Abishai his brother, and they set themselves in battle array against the people of Ammon.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:12 @ Then he said, "If the Syrians are too strong for me, then you shall help me; but if the people of Ammon are too strong for you, then I will help you.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:15 @ When the people of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fleeing, they also fled before Abishai his brother, and entered the city. So Joab went to Jerusalem.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:17 @ When it was told David, he gathered all Israel, crossed over the Jordan and came upon them, and set up in battle array against them. So when David had set up in battle array against the Syrians, they fought with him.

nkjv@1Chronicles:19:19 @ And when the servants of Hadadezer saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with David and became his servants. So the Syrians were not willing to help the people of Ammon anymore.

nkjv@1Chronicles:20:1 @ It happened in the spring of the year, at the time kings go out to battle, that Joab led out the armed forces and ravaged the country of the people of Ammon, and came and besieged Rabbah. But David stayed at Jerusalem. And Joab defeated Rabbah and overthrew it.

nkjv@1Chronicles:20:3 @ And he brought out the people who were in it, and put them to work with saws, with iron picks, and with axes. So David did to all the cities of the people of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

nkjv@1Chronicles:20:5 @ Again there was war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.

nkjv@1Chronicles:21:4 @ Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab. Therefore Joab departed and went throughout all Israel and came to Jerusalem.

nkjv@1Chronicles:21:6 @ But he did not count Levi and Benjamin among them, for the king's word was abominable to Joab.

nkjv@1Chronicles:21:11 @ So Gad came to David and said to him, "Thus says the LORD: "Choose for yourself,

nkjv@1Chronicles:21:12 @ either three years of famine, or three months to be defeated by your foes with the sword of your enemies overtaking you, or else for three days the sword of the LORD--the plague in the land, with the angel of the LORD destroying throughout all the territory of Israel.' Now consider what answer I should take back to Him who sent me."

nkjv@1Chronicles:21:13 @ And David said to Gad, "I am in great distress. Please let me fall into the hand of the LORD, for His mercies are very great; but do not let me fall into the hand of man."

nkjv@1Chronicles:21:17 @ And David said to God, "Was it not I who commanded the people to be numbered? I am the one who has sinned and done evil indeed; but these sheep, what have they done? Let Your hand, I pray, O LORD my God, be against me and my father's house, but not against Your people that they should be plagued."

nkjv@1Chronicles:21:19 @ So David went up at the word of Gad, which he had spoken in the name of the LORD.

nkjv@1Chronicles:21:21 @ So David came to Ornan, and Ornan looked and saw David. And he went out from the threshing floor, and bowed before David with his face to the ground.

nkjv@1Chronicles:22:5 @ Now David said, "Solomon my son is young and inexperienced, and the house to be built for the LORD must be exceedingly magnificent, famous and glorious throughout all countries. I will now make preparation for it." So David made abundant preparations before his death.

nkjv@1Chronicles:22:7 @ And David said to Solomon: "My son, as for me, it was in my mind to build a house to the name of the LORD my God;

nkjv@1Chronicles:22:8 @ but the word of the LORD came to me, saying, "You have shed much blood and have made great wars; you shall not build a house for My name, because you have shed much blood on the earth in My sight.

nkjv@1Chronicles:22:9 @ Behold, a son shall be born to you, who shall be a man of rest; and I will give him rest from all his enemies all around. His name shall be Solomon, for I will give peace and quietness to Israel in his days.

nkjv@1Chronicles:22:10 @ He shall build a house for My name, and he shall be My son, and I will be his Father; and I will establish the throne of his kingdom over Israel forever.'

nkjv@1Chronicles:22:19 @ Now set your heart and your soul to seek the LORD your God. Therefore arise and build the sanctuary of the LORD God, to bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD and the holy articles of God into the house that is to be built for the name of the LORD."

nkjv@1Chronicles:23:6 @ Also David separated them into divisions among the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

nkjv@1Chronicles:23:8 @ The sons of Laadan: the first Jehiel, then Zetham and Joel--three in all.

nkjv@1Chronicles:23:12 @ The sons of Kohath: Amram, Izhar, Hebron, and Uzziel--four in all.

nkjv@1Chronicles:23:13 @ The sons of Amram: Aaron and Moses; and Aaron was set apart, he and his sons forever, that he should sanctify the most holy things, to burn incense before the LORD, to minister to Him, and to give the blessing in His name forever.

nkjv@1Chronicles:23:19 @ Of the sons of Hebron, Jeriah was the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.

nkjv@1Chronicles:23:24 @ These were the sons of Levi by their fathers' houses--the heads of the fathers' houses as they were counted individually by the number of their names, who did the work for the service of the house of the LORD, from the age of twenty years and above.

nkjv@1Chronicles:23:28 @ because their duty was to help the sons of Aaron in the service of the house of the LORD, in the courts and in the chambers, in the purifying of all holy things and the work of the service of the house of God,

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:1 @ Now these are the divisions of the sons of Aaron. The sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:2 @ And Nadab and Abihu died before their father, and had no children; therefore Eleazar and Ithamar ministered as priests.

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:3 @ Then David with Zadok of the sons of Eleazar, and Ahimelech of the sons of Ithamar, divided them according to the schedule of their service.

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:4 @ There were more leaders found of the sons of Eleazar than of the sons of Ithamar, and thus they were divided. Among the sons of Eleazar were sixteen heads of their fathers' houses, and eight heads of their fathers' houses among the sons of Ithamar.

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:5 @ Thus they were divided by lot, one group as another, for there were officials of the sanctuary and officials of the house of God, from the sons of Eleazar and from the sons of Ithamar.

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:6 @ And the scribe, Shemaiah the son of Nethanel, one of the Levites, wrote them down before the king, the leaders, Zadok the priest, Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, and the heads of the fathers' houses of the priests and Levites, one father's house taken for Eleazar and one for Ithamar.

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:23 @ Of the sons of Hebron, Jeriah was the first, Amariah the second, Jahaziel the third, and Jekameam the fourth.

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:24 @ Of the sons of Uzziel, Michah; of the sons of Michah, Shamir.

nkjv@1Chronicles:24:27 @ The sons of Merari by Jaaziah were Beno, Shoham, Zaccur, and Ibri.

nkjv@1Chronicles:25:4 @ Of Heman, the sons of Heman: Bukkiah, Mattaniah, Uzziel, Shebuel, Jerimoth, Hananiah, Hanani, Eliathah, Giddalti, Romamti-Ezer, Joshbekashah, Mallothi, Hothir, and Mahazioth.

nkjv@1Chronicles:25:9 @ Now the first lot for Asaph came out for Joseph; the second for Gedaliah, him with his brethren and sons, twelve;

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:3 @ Elam the fifth, Jehohanan the sixth, Eliehoenai the seventh.

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:5 @ Ammiel the sixth, Issachar the seventh, Peulthai the eighth; for God blessed him.

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:12 @ Among these were the divisions of the gatekeepers, among the chief men, having duties just like their brethren, to serve in the house of the LORD.

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:14 @ The lot for the East Gate fell to Shelemiah. Then they cast lots for his son Zechariah, a wise counselor, and his lot came out for the North Gate;

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:16 @ To Shuppim and Hosah the lot came out for the West Gate, with the Shallecheth Gate on the ascending highway--watchman opposite watchman.

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:19 @ These were the divisions of the gatekeepers among the sons of Korah and among the sons of Merari.

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:22 @ The sons of Jehieli, Zetham and Joel his brother, were over the treasuries of the house of the LORD.

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:23 @ Of the Amramites, the Izharites, the Hebronites, and the Uzzielites:

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:25 @ And his brethren by Eliezer were Rehabiah his son, Jeshaiah his son, Joram his son, Zichri his son, and Shelomith his son.

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:28 @ And all that Samuel the seer, Saul the son of Kish, Abner the son of Ner, and Joab the son of Zeruiah had dedicated, every dedicated thing, was under the hand of Shelomith and his brethren.

nkjv@1Chronicles:26:31 @ Among the Hebronites, Jerijah was head of the Hebronites according to his genealogy of the fathers. In the fortieth year of the reign of David they were sought, and there were found among them capable men at Jazer of Gilead.

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:1 @ And the children of Israel, according to their number, the heads of fathers' houses, the captains of thousands and hundreds and their officers, served the king in every matter of the military divisions. These divisions came in and went out month by month throughout all the months of the year, each division having twenty-four thousand.

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:2 @ Over the first division for the first month was Jashobeam the son of Zabdiel, and in his division were twenty-four thousand;

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:8 @ The fifth captain for the fifth month was Shamhuth the Izrahite; in his division were twenty-four thousand.

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:12 @ The ninth captain for the ninth month was Abiezer the Anathothite, of the Benjamites; in his division were twenty-four thousand.

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:22 @ over Dan, Azarel the son of Jeroham. These were the leaders of the tribes of Israel.

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:24 @ Joab the son of Zeruiah began a census, but he did not finish, for wrath came upon Israel because of this census; nor was the number recorded in the account of the chronicles of King David.

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:27 @ And Shimei the Ramathite was over the vineyards, and Zabdi the Shiphmite was over the produce of the vineyards for the supply of wine.

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:28 @ Baal-Hanan the Gederite was over the olive trees and the sycamore trees that were in the lowlands, and Joash was over the store of oil.

nkjv@1Chronicles:27:30 @ Obil the Ishmaelite was over the camels, Jehdeiah the Meronothite was over the donkeys,

nkjv@1Chronicles:28:3 @ But God said to me, "You shall not build a house for My name, because you have been a man of war and have shed blood.'

nkjv@1Chronicles:28:4 @ However the LORD God of Israel chose me above all the house of my father to be king over Israel forever, for He has chosen Judah to be the ruler. And of the house of Judah, the house of my father, and among the sons of my father, He was pleased with me to make me king over all Israel.

nkjv@1Chronicles:28:11 @ Then David gave his son Solomon the plans for the vestibule, its houses, its treasuries, its upper chambers, its inner chambers, and the place of the mercy seat;

nkjv@1Chronicles:28:12 @ and the plans for all that he had by the Spirit, of the courts of the house of the LORD, of all the chambers all around, of the treasuries of the house of God, and of the treasuries for the dedicated things;

nkjv@1Chronicles:29:21 @ And they made sacrifices to the LORD and offered burnt offerings to the LORD on the next day: a thousand bulls, a thousand rams, a thousand lambs, with their drink offerings, and sacrifices in abundance for all Israel.

nkjv@1Chronicles:29:29 @ Now the acts of King David, first and last, indeed they are written in the book of Samuel the seer, in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer,

nkjv@2Chronicles:1:13 @ So Solomon came to Jerusalem from the high place that was at Gibeon, from before the tabernacle of meeting, and reigned over Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:1:15 @ Also the king made silver and gold as common in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedars as abundant as the sycamores which are in the lowland.

nkjv@2Chronicles:2:1 @ Then Solomon determined to build a temple for the name of the LORD, and a royal house for himself.

nkjv@2Chronicles:2:3 @ Then Solomon sent to Hiram king of Tyre, saying: 4 As you have dealt with David my father, and sent him cedars to build himself a house to dwell in, so deal with me.

nkjv@2Chronicles:2:4 @ Behold, I am building a temple for the name of the LORD my God, to dedicate it to Him, to burn before Him sweet incense, for the continual showbread, for the burnt offerings morning and evening, on the Sabbaths, on the New Moons, and on the set feasts of the LORD our God. This is an ordinance forever to Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:2:6 @ But who is able to build Him a temple, since heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain Him? Who am I then, that I should build Him a temple, except to burn sacrifice before Him?

nkjv@2Chronicles:2:9 @ to prepare timber for me in abundance, for the temple which I am about to build shall be great and wonderful.

nkjv@2Chronicles:2:11 @ Then Hiram king of Tyre answered in writing, which he sent to Solomon: 4 Because the LORD loves His people, He has made you king over them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:2:12 @ Hiram also said: 4 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel, who made heaven and earth, for He has given King David a wise son, endowed with prudence and understanding, who will build a temple for the LORD and a royal house for himself!

nkjv@2Chronicles:2:13 @ And now I have sent a skillful man, endowed with understanding, Huram my master craftsman

nkjv@2Chronicles:3:7 @ He also overlaid the house--the beams and doorposts, its walls and doors--with gold; and he carved cherubim on the walls.

nkjv@2Chronicles:3:17 @ Then he set up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand and the other on the left; he called the name of the one on the right hand Jachin, and the name of the one on the left Boaz.

nkjv@2Chronicles:4:7 @ And he made ten lampstands of gold according to their design, and set them in the temple, five on the right side and five on the left.

nkjv@2Chronicles:4:11 @ Then Huram made the pots and the shovels and the bowls. So Huram finished doing the work that he was to do for King Solomon for the house of God:

nkjv@2Chronicles:4:16 @ also the pots, the shovels, the forks--and all their articles Huram his master craftsman made of burnished bronze for King Solomon for the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:4:21 @ with the flowers and the lamps and the wick-trimmers of gold, of purest gold;

nkjv@2Chronicles:5:4 @ So all the elders of Israel came, and the Levites took up the ark.

nkjv@2Chronicles:5:11 @ And it came to pass when the priests came out of the Most Holy Place (for all the priests who were present had sanctified themselves, without keeping to their divisions),

nkjv@2Chronicles:5:13 @ indeed it came to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the LORD, and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the LORD, saying: "For He is good, For His mercy endures forever," that the house, the house of the LORD, was filled with a cloud,

nkjv@2Chronicles:6:5 @ "Since the day that I brought My people out of the land of Egypt, I have chosen no city from any tribe of Israel in which to build a house, that My name might be there, nor did I choose any man to be a ruler over My people Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:17 @ But Rehoboam reigned over the children of Israel who dwelt in the cities of Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:10:18 @ Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was in charge of revenue; but the children of Israel stoned him with stones, and he died. Therefore King Rehoboam mounted his chariot in haste to flee to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:1 @ Now when Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, he assembled from the house of Judah and Benjamin one hundred and eighty thousand chosen men who were warriors, to fight against Israel, that he might restore the kingdom to Rehoboam.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:2 @ But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:3 @ "Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:5 @ So Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:6 @ And he built Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:7 @ Beth Zur, Sochoh, Adullam,

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:10 @ Zorah, Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and Benjamin, fortified cities.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:12 @ Also in every city he put shields and spears, and made them very strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:14 @ For the Levites left their common-lands and their possessions and came to Judah and Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons had rejected them from serving as priests to the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:16 @ And after the Levites left, those from all the tribes of Israel, such as set their heart to seek the LORD God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the LORD God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:17 @ So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong for three years, because they walked in the way of David and Solomon for three years.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:18 @ Then Rehoboam took for himself as wife Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, and of Abihail the daughter of Eliah the son of Jesse.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:19 @ And she bore him children: Jeush, Shamariah, and Zaham.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:21 @ Now Rehoboam loved Maachah the granddaughter of Absalom more than all his wives and his concubines; for he took eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and begot twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:22 @ And Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maachah as chief, to be leader among his brothers; for he intended to make him king.

nkjv@2Chronicles:11:23 @ He dealt wisely, and dispersed some of his sons throughout all the territories of Judah and Benjamin, to every fortified city; and he gave them provisions in abundance. He also sought many wives for them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:1 @ Now it came to pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom and had strengthened himself, that he forsook the law of the LORD, and all Israel along with him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:2 @ And it happened in the fifth year of King Rehoboam that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the LORD,

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:3 @ with twelve hundred chariots, sixty thousand horsemen, and people without number who came with him out of Egypt--the Lubim and the Sukkiim and the Ethiopians.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:4 @ And he took the fortified cities of Judah and came to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:5 @ Then Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the leaders of Judah, who were gathered together in Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, "Thus says the LORD: "You have forsaken Me, and therefore I also have left you in the hand of Shishak."'

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:7 @ Now when the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, "They have humbled themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance. My wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:9 @ So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the LORD and the treasures of the king's house; he took everything. He also carried away the gold shields which Solomon had made.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:10 @ Then King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who guarded the doorway of the king's house.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:13 @ Thus King Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem and reigned. Now Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king; and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there. His mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonitess.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:15 @ The acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the book of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

nkjv@2Chronicles:12:16 @ So Rehoboam rested with his fathers, and was buried in the City of David. Then Abijah his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:1 @ In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, Abijah became king over Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:2 @ He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:3 @ Abijah set the battle in order with an army of valiant warriors, four hundred thousand choice men. Jeroboam also drew up in battle formation against him with eight hundred thousand choice men, mighty men of valor.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:4 @ Then Abijah stood on Mount Zemaraim, which is in the mountains of Ephraim, and said, "Hear me, Jeroboam and all Israel:

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:6 @ Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up and rebelled against his lord.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:7 @ Then worthless rogues gathered to him, and strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and inexperienced and could not withstand them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:8 @ And now you think to withstand the kingdom of the LORD, which is in the hand of the sons of David; and you are a great multitude, and with you are the gold calves which Jeroboam made for you as gods.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:9 @ Have you not cast out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made for yourselves priests, like the peoples of other lands, so that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of things that are not gods?

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:11 @ And they burn to the LORD every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense; they also set the showbread in order on the pure gold table, and the lampstand of gold with its lamps to burn every evening; for we keep the command of the LORD our God, but you have forsaken Him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:13 @ But Jeroboam caused an ambush to go around behind them; so they were in front of Judah, and the ambush was behind them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:15 @ Then the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shouted, it happened that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:19 @ And Abijah pursued Jeroboam and took cities from him: Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephrain with its villages.

nkjv@2Chronicles:13:20 @ So Jeroboam did not recover strength again in the days of Abijah; and the LORD struck him, and he died.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:8 @ And Asa had an army of three hundred thousand from Judah who carried shields and spears, and from Benjamin two hundred and eighty thousand men who carried shields and drew bows; all these were mighty men of valor.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:9 @ Then Zerah the Ethiopian came out against them with an army of a million men and three hundred chariots, and he came to Mareshah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:11 @ And Asa cried out to the LORD his God, and said, "LORD, it is nothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power; help us, O LORD our God, for we rest on You, and in Your name we go against this multitude. O LORD, You are our God; do not let man prevail against You!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:14 @ Then they defeated all the cities around Gerar, for the fear of the LORD came upon them; and they plundered all the cities, for there was exceedingly much spoil in them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:14:15 @ They also attacked the livestock enclosures, and carried off sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:1 @ Now the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:2 @ And he went out to meet Asa, and said to him: "Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin. The LORD is with you while you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:5 @ And in those times there was no peace to the one who went out, nor to the one who came in, but great turmoil was on all the inhabitants of the lands.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:8 @ And when Asa heard these words and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and removed the abominable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities which he had taken in the mountains of Ephraim; and he restored the altar of the LORD that was before the vestibule of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:9 @ Then he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those who dwelt with them from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon, for they came over to him in great numbers from Israel when they saw that the LORD his God was with him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:15:14 @ Then they took an oath before the LORD with a loud voice, with shouting and trumpets and rams' horns.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:1 @ In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah and built Ramah, that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:2 @ Then Asa brought silver and gold from the treasuries of the house of the LORD and of the king's house, and sent to Ben-Hadad king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying,

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:5 @ Now it happened, when Baasha heard it, that he stopped building Ramah and ceased his work.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:6 @ Then King Asa took all Judah, and they carried away the stones and timber of Ramah, which Baasha had used for building; and with them he built Geba and Mizpah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:7 @ And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him: "Because you have relied on the king of Syria, and have not relied on the LORD your God, therefore the army of the king of Syria has escaped from your hand.

nkjv@2Chronicles:16:12 @ And in the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa became diseased in his feet, and his malady was severe; yet in his disease he did not seek the LORD, but the physicians.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:8 @ And with them he sent Levites: Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tobadonijah--the Levites; and with them Elishama and Jehoram, the priests.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:11 @ Also some of the Philistines brought Jehoshaphat presents and silver as tribute; and the Arabians brought him flocks, seven thousand seven hundred rams and seven thousand seven hundred male goats.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:12 @ So Jehoshaphat became increasingly powerful, and he built fortresses and storage cities in Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:16 @ and next to him was Amasiah the son of Zichri, who willingly offered himself to the LORD, and with him two hundred thousand mighty men of valor.

nkjv@2Chronicles:17:17 @ Of Benjamin: Eliada a mighty man of valor, and with him two hundred thousand men armed with bow and shield;

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:2 @ After some years he went down to visit Ahab in Samaria; and Ahab killed sheep and oxen in abundance for him and the people who were with him, and persuaded him to go up with him to Ramoth Gilead.

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:3 @ So Ahab king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat king of Judah, "Will you go with me against Ramoth Gilead?" And he answered him, "I am as you are, and my people as your people; we will be with you in the war."

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:5 @ Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall we go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or shall I refrain?" So they said, "Go up, for God will deliver it into the king's hand."

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:9 @ The king of Israel and Jehoshaphat king of Judah, clothed in their robes, sat each on his throne; and they sat at a threshing floor at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets prophesied before them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:11 @ And all the prophets prophesied so, saying, "Go up to Ramoth Gilead and prosper, for the LORD will deliver it into the king's hand."

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:14 @ Then he came to the king; and the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to war against Ramoth Gilead, or shall I refrain?" And he said, "Go and prosper, and they shall be delivered into your hand!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:15 @ So the king said to him, "How many times shall I make you swear that you tell me nothing but the truth in the name of the LORD?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:19 @ And the LORD said, "Who will persuade Ahab king of Israel to go up, that he may fall at Ramoth Gilead?' So one spoke in this manner, and another spoke in that manner.

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:20 @ Then a spirit came forward and stood before the LORD, and said, "I will persuade him.' The LORD said to him, "In what way?'

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:24 @ And Micaiah said, "Indeed you shall see on that day when you go into an inner chamber to hide!"

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:25 @ Then the king of Israel said, "Take Micaiah, and return him to Amon the governor of the city and to Joash the king's son;

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:28 @ So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.

nkjv@2Chronicles:18:33 @ Now a certain man drew a bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of his armor. So he said to the driver of his chariot, "Turn around and take me out of the battle, for I am wounded."

nkjv@2Chronicles:19:4 @ So Jehoshaphat dwelt at Jerusalem; and he went out again among the people from Beersheba to the mountains of Ephraim, and brought them back to the LORD God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:19:11 @ And take notice: Amariah the chief priest is over you in all matters of the LORD; and Zebadiah the son of Ishmael, the ruler of the house of Judah, for all the king's matters; also the Levites will be officials before you. Behave courageously, and the LORD will be with the good."

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:1 @ It happened after this that the people of Moab with the people of Ammon, and others with them besides the Ammonites, came to battle against Jehoshaphat.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:2 @ Then some came and told Jehoshaphat, saying, "A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea, from Syria; and they are in Hazazon Tamar" (which is En Gedi).

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:4 @ So Judah gathered together to ask help from the LORD; and from all the cities of Judah they came to seek the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:7 @ Are You not our God, who drove out the inhabitants of this land before Your people Israel, and gave it to the descendants of Abraham Your friend forever?

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:8 @ And they dwell in it, and have built You a sanctuary in it for Your name, saying,

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:9 @ "If disaster comes upon us--sword, judgment, pestilence, or famine--we will stand before this temple and in Your presence (for Your name is in this temple), and cry out to You in our affliction, and You will hear and save.'

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:10 @ And now, here are the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir--whom You would not let Israel invade when they came out of the land of Egypt, but they turned from them and did not destroy them--

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:14 @ Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jahaziel the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah, a Levite of the sons of Asaph, in the midst of the assembly.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:22 @ Now when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:23 @ For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:24 @ So when Judah came to a place overlooking the wilderness, they looked toward the multitude; and there were their dead bodies, fallen on the earth. No one had escaped.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:25 @ When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away their spoil, they found among them an abundance of valuables on the dead bodies, and precious jewelry, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could carry away; and they were three days gathering the spoil because there was so much.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:26 @ And on the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Berachah, for there they blessed the LORD; therefore the name of that place was called The Valley of Berachah until this day.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:28 @ So they came to Jerusalem, with stringed instruments and harps and trumpets, to the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:20:31 @ So Jehoshaphat was king over Judah. He was thirty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:1 @ And Jehoshaphat rested with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David. Then Jehoram his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:3 @ Their father gave them great gifts of silver and gold and precious things, with fortified cities in Judah; but he gave the kingdom to Jehoram, because he was the firstborn.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:4 @ Now when Jehoram was established over the kingdom of his father, he strengthened himself and killed all his brothers with the sword, and also others of the princes of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:5 @ Jehoram was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:7 @ Yet the LORD would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that He had made with David, and since He had promised to give a lamp to him and to his sons forever.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:9 @ So Jehoram went out with his officers, and all his chariots with him. And he rose by night and attacked the Edomites who had surrounded him and the captains of the chariots.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:12 @ And a letter came to him from Elijah the prophet, saying, 4 Thus says the LORD God of your father David: 4 Because you have not walked in the ways of Jehoshaphat your father, or in the ways of Asa king of Judah,

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:16 @ Moreover the LORD stirred up against Jehoram the spirit of the Philistines and the Arabians who were near the Ethiopians.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:17 @ And they came up into Judah and invaded it, and carried away all the possessions that were found in the king's house, and also his sons and his wives, so that there was not a son left to him except Jehoahaz, the youngest of his sons.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:19 @ Then it happened in the course of time, after the end of two years, that his intestines came out because of his sickness; so he died in severe pain. And his people made no burning for him, like the burning for his fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:21:20 @ He was thirty-two years old when he became king. He reigned in Jerusalem eight years and, to no one's sorrow, departed. However they buried him in the City of David, but not in the tombs of the kings.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:1 @ Then the inhabitants of Jerusalem made Ahaziah his youngest son king in his place, for the raiders who came with the Arabians into the camp had killed all the older sons. So Ahaziah the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, reigned.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:2 @ Ahaziah was forty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah the granddaughter of Omri.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:5 @ He also followed their advice, and went with Jehoram the son of Ahab king of Israel to war against Hazael king of Syria at Ramoth Gilead; and the Syrians wounded Joram.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:6 @ Then he returned to Jezreel to recover from the wounds which he had received at Ramah, when he fought against Hazael king of Syria. And Azariah the son of Jehoram, king of Judah, went down to see Jehoram the son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was sick.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:7 @ His going to Joram was God's occasion for Ahaziah's downfall; for when he arrived, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom the LORD had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:9 @ Then he searched for Ahaziah; and they caught him (he was hiding in Samaria), and brought him to Jehu. When they had killed him, they buried him, "because," they said, "he is the son of Jehoshaphat, who sought the LORD with all his heart." So the house of Ahaziah had no one to assume power over the kingdom.

nkjv@2Chronicles:22:11 @ But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him away from among the king's sons who were being murdered, and put him and his nurse in a bedroom. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of King Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest (for she was the sister of Ahaziah), hid him from Athaliah so that she did not kill him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:1 @ In the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and made a covenant with the captains of hundreds: Azariah the son of Jeroham, Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, Azariah the son of Obed, Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:2 @ And they went throughout Judah and gathered the Levites from all the cities of Judah, and the chief fathers of Israel, and they came to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:23:12 @ Now when Athaliah heard the noise of the people running and praising the king, she came to the people in the temple of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:1 @ Joash was seven years old when he became king, and he reigned forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Zibiah of Beersheba.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:9 @ And they made a proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem to bring to the LORD the collection that Moses the servant of God had imposed on Israel in the wilderness.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:11 @ So it was, at that time, when the chest was brought to the king's official by the hand of the Levites, and when they saw that there was much money, that the king's scribe and the high priest's officer came and emptied the chest, and took it and returned it to its place. Thus they did day by day, and gathered money in abundance.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:16 @ And they buried him in the City of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, both toward God and His house.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:17 @ Now after the death of Jehoiada the leaders of Judah came and bowed down to the king. And the king listened to them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:18 @ Therefore they left the house of the LORD God of their fathers, and served wooden images and idols; and wrath came upon Judah and Jerusalem because of their trespass.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:20 @ Then the Spirit of God came upon Zechariah the son of Jehoiada the priest, who stood above the people, and said to them, "Thus says God: "Why do you transgress the commandments of the LORD, so that you cannot prosper? Because you have forsaken the LORD, He also has forsaken you."'

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:23 @ So it happened in the spring of the year that the army of Syria came up against him; and they came to Judah and Jerusalem, and destroyed all the leaders of the people from among the people, and sent all their spoil to the king of Damascus.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:24 @ For the army of the Syrians came with a small company of men; but the LORD delivered a very great army into their hand, because they had forsaken the LORD God of their fathers. So they executed judgment against Joash.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:26 @ These are the ones who conspired against him: Zabad the son of Shimeath the Ammonitess, and Jehozabad the son of Shimrith the Moabitess.

nkjv@2Chronicles:24:27 @ Now concerning his sons, and the many oracles about him, and the repairing of the house of God, indeed they are written in the annals of the book of the kings. Then Amaziah his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:1 @ Amaziah was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jehoaddan of Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:5 @ Moreover Amaziah gathered Judah together and set over them captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, according to their fathers' houses, throughout all Judah and Benjamin; and he numbered them from twenty years old and above, and found them to be three hundred thousand choice men, able to go to war, who could handle spear and shield.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:7 @ But a man of God came to him, saying, "O king, do not let the army of Israel go with you, for the LORD is not with Israel--not with any of the children of Ephraim.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:9 @ Then Amaziah said to the man of God, "But what shall we do about the hundred talents which I have given to the troops of Israel?" And the man of God answered, "The LORD is able to give you much more than this."

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:10 @ So Amaziah discharged the troops that had come to him from Ephraim, to go back home. Therefore their anger was greatly aroused against Judah, and they returned home in great anger.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:11 @ Then Amaziah strengthened himself, and leading his people, he went to the Valley of Salt and killed ten thousand of the people of Seir.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:13 @ But as for the soldiers of the army which Amaziah had discharged, so that they would not go with him to battle, they raided the cities of Judah from Samaria to Beth Horon, killed three thousand in them, and took much spoil.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:14 @ Now it was so, after Amaziah came from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the people of Seir, set them up to be his gods, and bowed down before them and burned incense to them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:15 @ Therefore the anger of the LORD was aroused against Amaziah, and He sent him a prophet who said to him, "Why have you sought the gods of the people, which could not rescue their own people from your hand?"

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:17 @ Now Amaziah king of Judah asked advice and sent to Joash the son of Jehoahaz, the son of Jehu, king of Israel, saying, "Come, let us face one another in battle."

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:18 @ And Joash king of Israel sent to Amaziah king of Judah, saying, "The thistle that was in Lebanon sent to the cedar that was in Lebanon, saying, "Give your daughter to my son as wife'; and a wild beast that was in Lebanon passed by and trampled the thistle.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:20 @ But Amaziah would not heed, for it came from God, that He might give them into the hand of their enemies, because they sought the gods of Edom.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:21 @ So Joash king of Israel went out; and he and Amaziah king of Judah faced one another at Beth Shemesh, which belongs to Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:23 @ Then Joash the king of Israel captured Amaziah king of Judah, the son of Joash, the son of Jehoahaz, at Beth Shemesh; and he brought him to Jerusalem, and broke down the wall of Jerusalem from the Gate of Ephraim to the Corner Gate--four hundred cubits.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:24 @ And he took all the gold and silver, all the articles that were found in the house of God with Obed-Edom, the treasures of the king's house, and hostages, and returned to Samaria.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:25 @ Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, lived fifteen years after the death of Joash the son of Jehoahaz, king of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:26 @ Now the rest of the acts of Amaziah, from first to last, indeed are they not written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel?

nkjv@2Chronicles:25:27 @ After the time that Amaziah turned away from following the LORD, they made a conspiracy against him in Jerusalem, and he fled to Lachish; but they sent after him to Lachish and killed him there.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:1 @ Now all the people of Judah took Uzziah, who was sixteen years old, and made him king instead of his father Amaziah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:3 @ Uzziah was sixteen years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-two years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jecholiah of Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:4 @ And he did what was right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that his father Amaziah had done.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:6 @ Now he went out and made war against the Philistines, and broke down the wall of Gath, the wall of Jabneh, and the wall of Ashdod; and he built cities around Ashdod and among the Philistines.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:8 @ Also the Ammonites brought tribute to Uzziah. His fame spread as far as the entrance of Egypt, for he became exceedingly strong.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:15 @ And he made devices in Jerusalem, invented by skillful men, to be on the towers and the corners, to shoot arrows and large stones. So his fame spread far and wide, for he was marvelously helped till he became strong.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:19 @ Then Uzziah became furious; and he had a censer in his hand to burn incense. And while he was angry with the priests, leprosy broke out on his forehead, before the priests in the house of the LORD, beside the incense altar.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:21 @ King Uzziah was a leper until the day of his death. He dwelt in an isolated house, because he was a leper; for he was cut off from the house of the LORD. Then Jotham his son was over the king's house, judging the people of the land.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:22 @ Now the rest of the acts of Uzziah, from first to last, the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz wrote.

nkjv@2Chronicles:26:23 @ So Uzziah rested with his fathers, and they buried him with his fathers in the field of burial which belonged to the kings, for they said, "He is a leper." Then Jotham his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:27:1 @ Jotham was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Jerushah the daughter of Zadok.

nkjv@2Chronicles:27:5 @ He also fought with the king of the Ammonites and defeated them. And the people of Ammon gave him in that year one hundred talents of silver, ten thousand kors of wheat, and ten thousand of barley. The people of Ammon paid this to him in the second and third years also.

nkjv@2Chronicles:27:6 @ So Jotham became mighty, because he prepared his ways before the LORD his God.

nkjv@2Chronicles:27:7 @ Now the rest of the acts of Jotham, and all his wars and his ways, indeed they are written in the book of the kings of Israel and Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:27:8 @ He was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:27:9 @ So Jotham rested with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David. Then Ahaz his son reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:1 @ Ahaz was twenty years old when he became king, and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem; and he did not do what was right in the sight of the LORD, as his father David had done.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:5 @ Therefore the LORD his God delivered him into the hand of the king of Syria. They defeated him, and carried away a great multitude of them as captives, and brought them to Damascus. Then he was also delivered into the hand of the king of Israel, who defeated him with a great slaughter.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:7 @ Zichri, a mighty man of Ephraim, killed Maaseiah the king's son, Azrikam the officer over the house, and Elkanah who was second to the king.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:8 @ And the children of Israel carried away captive of their brethren two hundred thousand women, sons, and daughters; and they also took away much spoil from them, and brought the spoil to Samaria.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:9 @ But a prophet of the LORD was there, whose name was Oded; and he went out before the army that came to Samaria, and said to them: "Look, because the LORD God of your fathers was angry with Judah, He has delivered them into your hand; but you have killed them in a rage that reaches up to heaven.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:12 @ Then some of the heads of the children of Ephraim, Azariah the son of Johanan, Berechiah the son of Meshillemoth, Jehizkiah the son of Shallum, and Amasa the son of Hadlai, stood up against those who came from the war,

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:15 @ Then the men who were designated by name rose up and took the captives, and from the spoil they clothed all who were naked among them, dressed them and gave them sandals, gave them food and drink, and anointed them; and they let all the feeble ones ride on donkeys. So they brought them to their brethren at Jericho, the city of palm trees. Then they returned to Samaria.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:16 @ At the same time King Ahaz sent to the kings of Assyria to help him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:20 @ Also Tiglath-Pileser king of Assyria came to him and distressed him, and did not assist him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:22 @ Now in the time of his distress King Ahaz became increasingly unfaithful to the LORD. This is that King Ahaz.

nkjv@2Chronicles:28:23 @ For he sacrificed to the gods of Damascus which had defeated him, saying, "Because the gods of the kings of Syria help them, I will sacrifice to them that they may help me." But they were the ruin of him and of all Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:1 @ Hezekiah became king when he was twenty-five years old, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Abijah the daughter of Zechariah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:7 @ They have also shut up the doors of the vestibule, put out the lamps, and have not burned incense or offered burnt offerings in the holy place to the God of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:12 @ Then these Levites arose: Mahath the son of Amasai and Joel the son of Azariah, of the sons of the Kohathites; of the sons of Merari, Kish the son of Abdi and Azariah the son of Jehallelel; of the Gershonites, Joah the son of Zimmah and Eden the son of Joah;

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:17 @ Now they began to sanctify on the first day of the first month, and on the eighth day of the month they came to the vestibule of the LORD. So they sanctified the house of the LORD in eight days, and on the sixteenth day of the first month they finished.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:21 @ And they brought seven bulls, seven rams, seven lambs, and seven male goats for a sin offering for the kingdom, for the sanctuary, and for Judah. Then he commanded the priests, the sons of Aaron, to offer them on the altar of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:22 @ So they killed the bulls, and the priests received the blood and sprinkled it on the altar. Likewise they killed the rams and sprinkled the blood on the altar. They also killed the lambs and sprinkled the blood on the altar.

nkjv@2Chronicles:29:32 @ And the number of the burnt offerings which the assembly brought was seventy bulls, one hundred rams, and two hundred lambs; all these were for a burnt offering to the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:5 @ So they resolved to make a proclamation throughout all Israel, from Beersheba to Dan, that they should come to keep the Passover to the LORD God of Israel at Jerusalem, since they had not done it for a long time in the prescribed manner.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:6 @ Then the runners went throughout all Israel and Judah with the letters from the king and his leaders, and spoke according to the command of the king: "Children of Israel, return to the LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel; then He will return to the remnant of you who have escaped from the hand of the kings of Assyria.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:11 @ Nevertheless some from Asher, Manasseh, and Zebulun humbled themselves and came to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:15 @ Then they slaughtered the Passover lambs on the fourteenth day of the second month. The priests and the Levites were ashamed, and sanctified themselves, and brought the burnt offerings to the house of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:17 @ For there were many in the assembly who had not sanctified themselves; therefore the Levites had charge of the slaughter of the Passover lambs for everyone who was not clean, to sanctify them to the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:25 @ The whole assembly of Judah rejoiced, also the priests and Levites, all the assembly that came from Israel, the sojourners who came from the land of Israel, and those who dwelt in Judah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:30:27 @ Then the priests, the Levites, arose and blessed the people, and their voice was heard; and their prayer came up to His holy dwelling place, to heaven.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:1 @ Now when all this was finished, all Israel who were present went out to the cities of Judah and broke the sacred pillars in pieces, cut down the wooden images, and threw down the high places and the altars--from all Judah, Benjamin, Ephraim, and Manasseh--until they had utterly destroyed them all. Then all the children of Israel returned to their own cities, every man to his possession.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:2 @ And Hezekiah appointed the divisions of the priests and the Levites according to their divisions, each man according to his service, the priests and Levites for burnt offerings and peace offerings, to serve, to give thanks, and to praise in the gates of the camp of the LORD.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:8 @ And when Hezekiah and the leaders came and saw the heaps, they blessed the LORD and His people Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:15 @ And under him were Eden, Miniamin, Jeshua, Shemaiah, Amariah, and Shecaniah, his faithful assistants in the cities of the priests, to distribute allotments to their brethren by divisions, to the great as well as the small.

nkjv@2Chronicles:31:19 @ Also for the sons of Aaron the priests, who were in the fields of the common-lands of their cities, in every single city, there were men who were designated by name to distribute portions to all the males among the priests and to all who were listed by genealogies among the Levites.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:1 @ After these deeds of faithfulness, Sennacherib king of Assyria came and entered Judah; he encamped against the fortified cities, thinking to win them over to himself.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:11 @ Does not Hezekiah persuade you to give yourselves over to die by famine and by thirst, saying, "The LORD our God will deliver us from the hand of the king of Assyria"?

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:12 @ Has not the same Hezekiah taken away His high places and His altars, and commanded Judah and Jerusalem, saying, "You shall worship before one altar and burn incense on it"?

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:14 @ Who was there among all the gods of those nations that my fathers utterly destroyed that could deliver his people from my hand, that your God should be able to deliver you from my hand?

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:20 @ Now because of this King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah, the son of Amoz, prayed and cried out to heaven.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:21 @ Then the LORD sent an angel who cut down every mighty man of valor, leader, and captain in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned shamefaced to his own land. And when he had gone into the temple of his god, some of his own offspring struck him down with the sword there.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:30 @ This same Hezekiah also stopped the water outlet of Upper Gihon, and brought the water by tunnel to the west side of the City of David. Hezekiah prospered in all his works.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:31 @ However, regarding the ambassadors of the princes of Babylon, whom they sent to him to inquire about the wonder that was done in the land, God withdrew from him, in order to test him, that He might know all that was in his heart.

nkjv@2Chronicles:32:32 @ Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and his goodness, indeed they are written in the vision of Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, and in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:1 @ Manasseh was twelve years old when he became king, and he reigned fifty-five years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:4 @ He also built altars in the house of the LORD, of which the LORD had said, "In Jerusalem shall My name be forever."

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:7 @ He even set a carved image, the idol which he had made, in the house of God, of which God had said to David and to Solomon his son, "In this house and in Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, I will put My name forever;

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:18 @ Now the rest of the acts of Manasseh, his prayer to his God, and the words of the seers who spoke to him in the name of the LORD God of Israel, indeed they are written in the book of the kings of Israel.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:19 @ Also his prayer and how God received his entreaty, and all his sin and trespass, and the sites where he built high places and set up wooden images and carved images, before he was humbled, indeed they are written among the sayings of Hozai.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:20 @ So Manasseh rested with his fathers, and they buried him in his own house. Then his son Amon reigned in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:21 @ Amon was twenty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned two years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:22 @ But he did evil in the sight of the LORD, as his father Manasseh had done; for Amon sacrificed to all the carved images which his father Manasseh had made, and served them.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:23 @ And he did not humble himself before the LORD, as his father Manasseh had humbled himself; but Amon trespassed more and more.

nkjv@2Chronicles:33:25 @ But the people of the land executed all those who had conspired against King Amon. Then the people of the land made his son Josiah king in his place.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:1 @ Josiah was eight years old when he became king, and he reigned thirty-one years in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:9 @ When they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites who kept the doors had gathered from the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, from all the remnant of Israel, from all Judah and Benjamin, and which they had brought back to Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:11 @ They gave it to the craftsmen and builders to buy hewn stone and timber for beams, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:12 @ And the men did the work faithfully. Their overseers were Jahath and Obadiah the Levites, of the sons of Merari, and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to supervise. Others of the Levites, all of whom were skillful with instruments of music,

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:20 @ Then the king commanded Hilkiah, Ahikam the son of Shaphan, Abdon the son of Micah, Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king, saying,

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:24 @ "Thus says the LORD: "Behold, I will bring calamity on this place and on its inhabitants, all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah,

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:28 @ "Surely I will gather you to your fathers, and you shall be gathered to your grave in peace; and your eyes shall not see all the calamity which I will bring on this place and its inhabitants.""' So they brought back word to the king.

nkjv@2Chronicles:34:32 @ And he made all who were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin take a stand. So the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:1 @ Now Josiah kept a Passover to the LORD in Jerusalem, and they slaughtered the Passover lambs on the fourteenth day of the first month.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:7 @ Then Josiah gave the lay people lambs and young goats from the flock, all for Passover offerings for all who were present, to the number of thirty thousand, as well as three thousand cattle; these were from the king's possessions.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:13 @ Also they roasted the Passover offerings with fire according to the ordinance; but the other holy offerings they boiled in pots, in caldrons, and in pans, and divided them quickly among all the lay people.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:16 @ So all the service of the LORD was prepared the same day, to keep the Passover and to offer burnt offerings on the altar of the LORD, according to the command of King Josiah.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:18 @ There had been no Passover kept in Israel like that since the days of Samuel the prophet; and none of the kings of Israel had kept such a Passover as Josiah kept, with the priests and the Levites, all Judah and Israel who were present, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:20 @ After all this, when Josiah had prepared the temple, Necho king of Egypt came up to fight against Carchemish by the Euphrates; and Josiah went out against him.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:22 @ Nevertheless Josiah would not turn his face from him, but disguised himself so that he might fight with him, and did not heed the words of Necho from the mouth of God. So he came to fight in the Valley of Megiddo.

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:23 @ And the archers shot King Josiah; and the king said to his servants, "Take me away, for I am severely wounded."

nkjv@2Chronicles:35:25 @ Jeremiah also lamented for Josiah. And to this day all the singing men and the singing women speak of Josiah in their lamentations. They made it a custom in Israel; and indeed they are written in the Laments.

nkjv@2Chronicles:36:2 @ Jehoahaz was twenty-three years old when he became king, and he reigned three months in Jerusalem.

nkjv@2Chronicles:36:4 @ Then the king of Egypt made Jehoahaz's brother Eliakim king over Judah and Jerusalem, and changed his name to Jehoiakim. And Necho took Jehoahaz his brother and carried him off to Egypt.

nkjv@2Chronicles:36:5 @ Jehoiakim was twenty-five years old when he became king, and he reigned eleven years in Jerusalem. And he did evil in the sight of the LORD his God.

nkjv@Ezra:10:2 @ And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, one of the sons of Elam, spoke up and said to Ezra, "We have trespassed against our God, and have taken pagan wives from the peoples of the land; yet now there is hope in Israel in spite of this.

nkjv@Ezra:10:6 @ Then Ezra rose up from before the house of God, and went into the chamber of Jehohanan the son of Eliashib; and when he came there, he ate no bread and drank no water, for he mourned because of the guilt of those from the captivity.

nkjv@Ezra:10:7 @ And they issued a proclamation throughout Judah and Jerusalem to all the descendants of the captivity, that they must gather at Jerusalem,

nkjv@Ezra:10:9 @ So all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered at Jerusalem within three days. It was the ninth month, on the twentieth of the month; and all the people sat in the open square of the house of God, trembling because of this matter and because of heavy rain.

nkjv@Ezra:10:15 @ Only Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahaziah the son of Tikvah opposed this, and Meshullam and Shabbethai the Levite gave them support.

nkjv@Ezra:10:16 @ Then the descendants of the captivity did so. And Ezra the priest, with certain heads of the fathers' households, were set apart by the fathers' households, each of them by name; and they sat down on the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.

nkjv@Ezra:10:18 @ And among the sons of the priests who had taken pagan wives the following were found of the sons of Jeshua the son of Jozadak, and his brothers: Maaseiah, Eliezer, Jarib, and Gedaliah.

nkjv@Ezra:10:19 @ And they gave their promise that they would put away their wives; and being guilty, they presented a ram of the flock as their trespass offering.

nkjv@Nehemiah:1:1 @ The words of Nehemiah the son of Hachaliah. It came to pass in the month of Chislev, in the twentieth year, as I was in Shushan the citadel,

nkjv@Nehemiah:1:2 @ that Hanani one of my brethren came with men from Judah; and I asked them concerning the Jews who had escaped, who had survived the captivity, and concerning Jerusalem.

nkjv@Nehemiah:1:8 @ Remember, I pray, the word that You commanded Your servant Moses, saying, "If you are unfaithful, I will scatter you among the nations;

nkjv@Nehemiah:1:9 @ but if you return to Me, and keep My commandments and do them, though some of you were cast out to the farthest part of the heavens, yet I will gather them from there, and bring them to the place which I have chosen as a dwelling for My name.'

nkjv@Nehemiah:1:11 @ O Lord, I pray, please let Your ear be attentive to the prayer of Your servant, and to the prayer of Your servants who desire to fear Your name; and let Your servant prosper this day, I pray, and grant him mercy in the sight of this man." For I was the king's cupbearer.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:1 @ And it came to pass in the month of Nisan, in the twentieth year of King Artaxerxes, when wine was before him, that I took the wine and gave it to the king. Now I had never been sad in his presence before.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:2 @ Therefore the king said to me, "Why is your face sad, since you are not sick? This is nothing but sorrow of heart." So I became dreadfully afraid,

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:8 @ and a letter to Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, that he must give me timber to make beams for the gates of the citadel which pertains to the temple, for the city wall, and for the house that I will occupy." And the king granted them to me according to the good hand of my God upon me.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:10 @ When Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the Ammonite official heard of it, they were deeply disturbed that a man had come to seek the well-being of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:11 @ So I came to Jerusalem and was there three days.

nkjv@Nehemiah:2:19 @ But when Sanballat the Horonite, Tobiah the Ammonite official, and Geshem the Arab heard of it, they laughed at us and despised us, and said, "What is this thing that you are doing? Will you rebel against the king?"

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:3 @ Also the sons of Hassenaah built the Fish Gate; they laid its beams and hung its doors with its bolts and bars.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:4 @ And next to them Meremoth the son of Urijah, the son of Koz, made repairs. Next to them Meshullam the son of Berechiah, the son of Meshezabel, made repairs. Next to them Zadok the son of Baana made repairs.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:6 @ Moreover Jehoiada the son of Paseah and Meshullam the son of Besodeiah repaired the Old Gate; they laid its beams and hung its doors, with its bolts and bars.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:23 @ After him Benjamin and Hasshub made repairs opposite their house. After them Azariah the son of Maaseiah, the son of Ananiah, made repairs by his house.

nkjv@Nehemiah:3:30 @ After him Hananiah the son of Shelemiah, and Hanun, the sixth son of Zalaph, repaired another section. After him Meshullam the son of Berechiah made repairs in front of his dwelling.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:2 @ And he spoke before his brethren and the army of Samaria, and said, "What are these feeble Jews doing? Will they fortify themselves? Will they offer sacrifices? Will they complete it in a day? Will they revive the stones from the heaps of rubbish--stones that are burned?"

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:3 @ Now Tobiah the Ammonite was beside him, and he said, "Whatever they build, if even a fox goes up on it, he will break down their stone wall."

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:7 @ Now it happened, when Sanballat, Tobiah, the Arabs, the Ammonites, and the Ashdodites heard that the walls of Jerusalem were being restored and the gaps were beginning to be closed, that they became very angry,

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:12 @ So it was, when the Jews who dwelt near them came, that they told us ten times, "From whatever place you turn, they will be upon us."

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:13 @ Therefore I positioned men behind the lower parts of the wall, at the openings; and I set the people according to their families, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

nkjv@Nehemiah:4:22 @ At the same time I also said to the people, "Let each man and his servant stay at night in Jerusalem, that they may be our guard by night and a working party by day."

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:3 @ There were also some who said, "We have mortgaged our lands and vineyards and houses, that we might buy grain because of the famine."

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:6 @ And I became very angry when I heard their outcry and these words.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:10 @ I also, with my brethren and my servants, am lending them money and grain. Please, let us stop this usury!

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:13 @ Then I shook out the fold of my garment and said, "So may God shake out each man from his house, and from his property, who does not perform this promise. Even thus may he be shaken out and emptied." And all the assembly said, "Amen!" and praised the LORD. Then the people did according to this promise.

nkjv@Nehemiah:5:17 @ And at my table were one hundred and fifty Jews and rulers, besides those who came to us from the nations around us.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:2 @ that Sanballat and Geshem sent to me, saying, "Come, let us meet together among the villages in the plain of Ono." But they thought to do me harm.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:3 @ So I sent messengers to them, saying, "I am doing a great work, so that I cannot come down. Why should the work cease while I leave it and go down to you?"

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:4 @ But they sent me this message four times, and I answered them in the same manner.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:6 @ In it was written: It is reported among the nations, and Geshem says, that you and the Jews plan to rebel; therefore, according to these rumors, you are rebuilding the wall, that you may be their king.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:10 @ Afterward I came to the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah, the son of Mehetabel, who was a secret informer; and he said, "Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us close the doors of the temple, for they are coming to kill you; indeed, at night they will come to kill you."

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:17 @ Also in those days the nobles of Judah sent many letters to Tobiah, and the letters of Tobiah came to them.

nkjv@Nehemiah:6:18 @ For many in Judah were pledged to him, because he was the son-in-law of Shechaniah the son of Arah, and his son Jehohanan had married the daughter of Meshullam the son of Berechiah.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:3 @ And I said to them, "Do not let the gates of Jerusalem be opened until the sun is hot; and while they stand guard, let them shut and bar the doors; and appoint guards from among the inhabitants of Jerusalem, one at his watch station and another in front of his own house."

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:6 @ These are the people of the province who came back from the captivity, of those who had been carried away, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and Judah, everyone to his city.

nkjv@Nehemiah:7:73 @ So the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, some of the people, the Nethinim, and all Israel dwelt in their cities. When the seventh month came, the children of Israel were in their cities.

nkjv@Nehemiah:8:4 @ So Ezra the scribe stood on a platform of wood which they had made for the purpose; and beside him, at his right hand, stood Mattithiah, Shema, Anaiah, Urijah, Hilkiah, and Maaseiah; and at his left hand Pedaiah, Mishael, Malchijah, Hashum, Hashbadana, Zechariah, and Meshullam.

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:1 @ On that day they read from the Book of Moses in the hearing of the people, and in it was found written that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever come into the assembly of God,

nkjv@Nehemiah:13:2 @ because they had not met the children of Israel with bread and water, but hired Balaam against them to curse them. However, our God turned the curse into a blessing.

nkjv@Esther:1:1 @ Now it came to pass in the days of Ahasuerus (this was the Ahasuerus who reigned over one hundred and twenty-seven provinces, from India to Ethiopia),

nkjv@Esther:2:5 @ In Shushan the citadel there was a certain Jew whose name was Mordecai the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite.

nkjv@Esther:2:10 @ Esther had not revealed her people or family, for Mordecai had charged her not to reveal it.

nkjv@Esther:2:12 @ Each young woman's turn came to go in to King Ahasuerus after she had completed twelve months' preparation, according to the regulations for the women, for thus were the days of their preparation apportioned: six months with oil of myrrh, and six months with perfumes and preparations for beautifying women.

nkjv@Esther:2:14 @ In the evening she went, and in the morning she returned to the second house of the women, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's eunuch who kept the concubines. She would not go in to the king again unless the king delighted in her and called for her by name.

nkjv@Esther:2:15 @ Now when the turn came for Esther the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai, who had taken her as his daughter, to go in to the king, she requested nothing but what Hegai the king's eunuch, the custodian of the women, advised. And Esther obtained favor in the sight of all who saw her.

nkjv@Esther:2:20 @ Now Esther had not revealed her family and her people, just as Mordecai had charged her, for Esther obeyed the command of Mordecai as when she was brought up by him.

nkjv@Esther:2:21 @ In those days, while Mordecai sat within the king's gate, two of the king's eunuchs, Bigthan and Teresh, doorkeepers, became furious and sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

nkjv@Esther:2:22 @ So the matter became known to Mordecai, who told Queen Esther, and Esther informed the king in Mordecai's name.

nkjv@Esther:3:1 @ After these things King Ahasuerus promoted Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him and set his seat above all the princes who were with him.

nkjv@Esther:3:2 @ And all the king's servants who were within the king's gate bowed and paid homage to Haman, for so the king had commanded concerning him. But Mordecai would not bow or pay homage.

nkjv@Esther:3:4 @ Now it happened, when they spoke to him daily and he would not listen to them, that they told it to Haman, to see whether Mordecai's words would stand; for Mordecai had told them that he was a Jew.

nkjv@Esther:3:5 @ When Haman saw that Mordecai did not bow or pay him homage, Haman was filled with wrath.

nkjv@Esther:3:6 @ But he disdained to lay hands on Mordecai alone, for they had told him of the people of Mordecai. Instead, Haman sought to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus--the people of Mordecai.

nkjv@Esther:3:7 @ In the first month, which is the month of Nisan, in the twelfth year of King Ahasuerus, they cast Pur (that is, the lot), before Haman to determine the day and the month, until it fell on the twelfth month, which is the month of Adar.

nkjv@Esther:3:8 @ Then Haman said to King Ahasuerus, "There is a certain people scattered and dispersed among the people in all the provinces of your kingdom; their laws are different from all other people's, and they do not keep the king's laws. Therefore it is not fitting for the king to let them remain.

nkjv@Esther:3:10 @ So the king took his signet ring from his hand and gave it to Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:3:11 @ And the king said to Haman, "The money and the people are given to you, to do with them as seems good to you."

nkjv@Esther:3:12 @ Then the king's scribes were called on the thirteenth day of the first month, and a decree was written according to all that Haman commanded--to the king's satraps, to the governors who were over each province, to the officials of all people, to every province according to its script, and to every people in their language. In the name of King Ahasuerus it was written, and sealed with the king's signet ring.

nkjv@Esther:3:15 @ The couriers went out, hastened by the king's command; and the decree was proclaimed in Shushan the citadel. So the king and Haman sat down to drink, but the city of Shushan was perplexed.

nkjv@Esther:4:3 @ And in every province where the king's command and decree arrived, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, weeping, and wailing; and many lay in sackcloth and ashes.

nkjv@Esther:4:4 @ So Esther's maids and eunuchs came and told her, and the queen was deeply distressed. Then she sent garments to clothe Mordecai and take his sackcloth away from him, but he would not accept them.

nkjv@Esther:4:7 @ And Mordecai told him all that had happened to him, and the sum of money that Haman had promised to pay into the king's treasuries to destroy the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:5:4 @ So Esther answered, "If it pleases the king, let the king and Haman come today to the banquet that I have prepared for him."

nkjv@Esther:5:5 @ Then the king said, "Bring Haman quickly, that he may do as Esther has said." So the king and Haman went to the banquet that Esther had prepared.

nkjv@Esther:5:8 @ If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and fulfill my request, then let the king and Haman come to the banquet which I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said."

nkjv@Esther:5:9 @ So Haman went out that day joyful and with a glad heart; but when Haman saw Mordecai in the king's gate, and that he did not stand or tremble before him, he was filled with indignation against Mordecai.

nkjv@Esther:5:10 @ Nevertheless Haman restrained himself and went home, and he sent and called for his friends and his wife Zeresh.

nkjv@Esther:5:11 @ Then Haman told them of his great riches, the multitude of his children, everything in which the king had promoted him, and how he had advanced him above the officials and servants of the king.

nkjv@Esther:5:12 @ Moreover Haman said, "Besides, Queen Esther invited no one but me to come in with the king to the banquet that she prepared; and tomorrow I am again invited by her, along with the king.

nkjv@Esther:5:14 @ Then his wife Zeresh and all his friends said to him, "Let a gallows be made, fifty cubits high, and in the morning suggest to the king that Mordecai be hanged on it; then go merrily with the king to the banquet." And the thing pleased Haman; so he had the gallows made.

nkjv@Esther:6:4 @ So the king said, "Who is in the court?" Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the king's palace to suggest that the king hang Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.

nkjv@Esther:6:5 @ The king's servants said to him, "Haman is there, standing in the court." And the king said, "Let him come in."

nkjv@Esther:6:6 @ So Haman came in, and the king asked him, "What shall be done for the man whom the king delights to honor?" Now Haman thought in his heart, "Whom would the king delight to honor more than me?"

nkjv@Esther:6:7 @ And Haman answered the king, "For the man whom the king delights to honor,

nkjv@Esther:6:10 @ Then the king said to Haman, "Hurry, take the robe and the horse, as you have suggested, and do so for Mordecai the Jew who sits within the king's gate! Leave nothing undone of all that you have spoken."

nkjv@Esther:6:11 @ So Haman took the robe and the horse, arrayed Mordecai and led him on horseback through the city square, and proclaimed before him, "Thus shall it be done to the man whom the king delights to honor!"

nkjv@Esther:6:12 @ Afterward Mordecai went back to the king's gate. But Haman hurried to his house, mourning and with his head covered.

nkjv@Esther:6:13 @ When Haman told his wife Zeresh and all his friends everything that had happened to him, his wise men and his wife Zeresh said to him, "If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against him but will surely fall before him."

nkjv@Esther:6:14 @ While they were still talking with him, the king's eunuchs came, and hastened to bring Haman to the banquet which Esther had prepared.

nkjv@Esther:7:1 @ So the king and Haman went to dine with Queen Esther.

nkjv@Esther:7:6 @ And Esther said, "The adversary and enemy is this wicked Haman!" So Haman was terrified before the king and queen.

nkjv@Esther:7:7 @ Then the king arose in his wrath from the banquet of wine and went into the palace garden; but Haman stood before Queen Esther, pleading for his life, for he saw that evil was determined against him by the king.

nkjv@Esther:7:8 @ When the king returned from the palace garden to the place of the banquet of wine, Haman had fallen across the couch where Esther was. Then the king said, "Will he also assault the queen while I am in the house?" As the word left the king's mouth, they covered Haman's face.

nkjv@Esther:7:9 @ Now Harbonah, one of the eunuchs, said to the king, "Look! The gallows, fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai, who spoke good on the king's behalf, is standing at the house of Haman." Then the king said, "Hang him on it!"

nkjv@Esther:7:10 @ So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king's wrath subsided.

nkjv@Esther:8:1 @ On that day King Ahasuerus gave Queen Esther the house of Haman, the enemy of the Jews. And Mordecai came before the king, for Esther had told how he was related to her.

nkjv@Esther:8:2 @ So the king took off his signet ring, which he had taken from Haman, and gave it to Mordecai; and Esther appointed Mordecai over the house of Haman.

nkjv@Esther:8:3 @ Now Esther spoke again to the king, fell down at his feet, and implored him with tears to counteract the evil of Haman the Agagite, and the scheme which he had devised against the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:8:5 @ and said, "If it pleases the king, and if I have found favor in his sight and the thing seems right to the king and I am pleasing in his eyes, let it be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to annihilate the Jews who are in all the king's provinces.

nkjv@Esther:8:7 @ Then King Ahasuerus said to Queen Esther and Mordecai the Jew, "Indeed, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and they have hanged him on the gallows because he tried to lay his hand on the Jews.

nkjv@Esther:8:8 @ You yourselves write a decree concerning the Jews, as you please, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's signet ring; for whatever is written in the king's name and sealed with the king's signet ring no one can revoke."

nkjv@Esther:8:10 @ And he wrote in the name of King Ahasuerus, sealed it with the king's signet ring, and sent letters by couriers on horseback, riding on royal horses bred from swift steeds.

nkjv@Esther:8:17 @ And in every province and city, wherever the king's command and decree came, the Jews had joy and gladness, a feast and a holiday. Then many of the people of the land became Jews, because fear of the Jews fell upon them.

nkjv@Esther:9:1 @ Now in the twelfth month, that is, the month of Adar, on the thirteenth day, the time came for the king's command and his decree to be executed. On the day that the enemies of the Jews had hoped to overpower them, the opposite occurred, in that the Jews themselves overpowered those who hated them.

nkjv@Esther:9:4 @ For Mordecai was great in the king's palace, and his fame spread throughout all the provinces; for this man Mordecai became increasingly prominent.

nkjv@Esther:9:10 @ the ten sons of Haman the son of Hammedatha, the enemy of the Jews--they killed; but they did not lay a hand on the plunder.

nkjv@Esther:9:12 @ And the king said to Queen Esther, "The Jews have killed and destroyed five hundred men in Shushan the citadel, and the ten sons of Haman. What have they done in the rest of the king's provinces? Now what is your petition? It shall be granted to you. Or what is your further request? It shall be done."

nkjv@Esther:9:13 @ Then Esther said, "If it pleases the king, let it be granted to the Jews who are in Shushan to do again tomorrow according to today's decree, and let Haman's ten sons be hanged on the gallows."

nkjv@Esther:9:14 @ So the king commanded this to be done; the decree was issued in Shushan, and they hanged Haman's ten sons.

nkjv@Esther:9:21 @ to establish among them that they should celebrate yearly the fourteenth and fifteenth days of the month of Adar,

nkjv@Esther:9:24 @ because Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had plotted against the Jews to annihilate them, and had cast Pur (that is, the lot), to consume them and destroy them;

nkjv@Esther:9:25 @ but when Esther came before the king, he commanded by letter that this wicked plot which Haman had devised against the Jews should return on his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.

nkjv@Esther:9:26 @ So they called these days Purim, after the name Pur. Therefore, because of all the words of this letter, what they had seen concerning this matter, and what had happened to them,

nkjv@Esther:9:28 @ that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city, that these days of Purim should not fail to be observed among the Jews, and that the memory of them should not perish among their descendants.

nkjv@Esther:9:31 @ to confirm these days of Purim at their appointed time, as Mordecai the Jew and Queen Esther had prescribed for them, and as they had decreed for themselves and their descendants concerning matters of their fasting and lamenting.

nkjv@Esther:10:3 @ For Mordecai the Jew was second to King Ahasuerus, and was great among the Jews and well received by the multitude of his brethren, seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his countrymen.

nkjv@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one who feared God and shunned evil.

nkjv@Job:1:3 @ Also, his possessions were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very large household, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East.

nkjv@Job:1:6 @ Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.

nkjv@Job:1:8 @ Then 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, one who fears God and shuns evil?"

nkjv@Job:1:14 @ and a messenger came to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them,

nkjv@Job:1:16 @ While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:17 @ While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The Chaldeans formed three bands, raided the camels and took them away, yes, and killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:18 @ While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house,

nkjv@Job:1:19 @ and suddenly a great wind came from across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:21 @ And he said: "Naked I came from my mother's womb, And naked shall I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; Blessed be the name of the LORD."

nkjv@Job:2:1 @ Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.

nkjv@Job:2:3 @ Then 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, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he holds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, to destroy him without cause."

nkjv@Job:2:11 @ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this adversity that had come upon him, each one came from his own place--Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment together to come and mourn with him, and to comfort him.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:13 @ As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches going back and forth among the living creatures. The fire was bright, and out of the fire went lightning.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:16 @ The appearance of the wheels and their workings was like the color of beryl, and all four had the same likeness. The appearance of their workings was, as it were, a wheel in the middle of a wheel.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:22 @ The likeness of the firmament above the heads of the living creatures was like the color of an awesome crystal, stretched out over their heads.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:23 @ And under the firmament their wings spread out straight, one toward another. Each one had two which covered one side, and each one had two which covered the other side of the body.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:25 @ A voice came from above the firmament that was over their heads; whenever they stood, they let down their wings.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:26 @ And above the firmament over their heads was the likeness of a throne, in appearance like a sapphire stone; on the likeness of the throne was a likeness with the appearance of a man high above it.

nkjv@Ezekiel:1:27 @ Also from the appearance of His waist and upward I saw, as it were, the color of amber with the appearance of fire all around within it; and from the appearance of His waist and downward I saw, as it were, the appearance of fire with brightness all around.

nkjv@Ezekiel:2:3 @ And He said to me: "Son of man, I am sending you to the children of Israel, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against Me; they and their fathers have transgressed against Me to this very day.

nkjv@Daniel:3:29 @ Therefore I make a decree that any people, nation, or language which speaks anything amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made an ash heap; because there is no other God who can deliver like this."

nkjv@Daniel:4:5 @ I saw a dream which made me afraid, and the thoughts on my bed and the visions of my head troubled me.

nkjv@Matthew:8:3 @ Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, "I am willing; be cleansed." Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

nkjv@Matthew:8:5 @ Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him,

nkjv@Matthew:8:8 @ The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.

nkjv@Matthew:9:9 @ As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me." So he arose and followed Him.

nkjv@Matthew:9:10 @ Now it happened, as Jesus sat at the table in the house, that behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Him and His disciples.

nkjv@Matthew:9:14 @ Then the disciples of John came to Him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but Your disciples do not fast?"

nkjv@Matthew:9:18 @ While He spoke these things to them, behold, a ruler came and worshiped Him, saying, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay Your hand on her and she will live."

nkjv@Matthew:9:20 @ And suddenly, a woman who had a flow of blood for twelve years came from behind and touched the hem of His garment.

nkjv@Matthew:13:7 @ And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up and choked them.

nkjv@Matthew:13:10 @ And the disciples came and said to Him, "Why do You speak to them in parables?"

nkjv@Matthew:13:22 @ Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.

nkjv@Matthew:13:27 @ So the servants of the owner came and said to him, "Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How then does it have tares?'

nkjv@Matthew:13:36 @ Then Jesus sent the multitude away and went into the house. And His disciples came to Him, saying, "Explain to us the parable of the tares of the field."

nkjv@Mark:5:27 @ When she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him in the crowd and touched His garment.

nkjv@Mark:5:33 @ But the woman, fearing and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell down before Him and told Him the whole truth.

nkjv@Mark:5:35 @ While He was still speaking, some came from the ruler of the synagogue's house who said, "Your daughter is dead. Why trouble the Teacher any further?"

nkjv@Mark:5:37 @ And He permitted no one to follow Him except Peter, James, and John the brother of James.

nkjv@Mark:5:38 @ Then He came to the house of the ruler of the synagogue, and saw a tumult and those who wept and wailed loudly.

nkjv@Mark:5:39 @ When He came in, He said to them, "Why make this commotion and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeping."

nkjv@Mark:5:42 @ Immediately the girl arose and walked, for she was twelve years of age. And they were overcome with great amazement.

nkjv@Mark:6:1 @ Then He went out from there and came to His own country, and His disciples followed Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:3 @ Is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?" So they were offended at Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:4 @ But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country, among his own relatives, and in his own house."

nkjv@Mark:6:14 @ Now King Herod heard of Him, for His name had become well known. And he said, "John the Baptist is risen from the dead, and therefore these powers are at work in him."

nkjv@Mark:6:25 @ Immediately she came in with haste to the king and asked, saying, "I want you to give me at once the head of John the Baptist on a platter."

nkjv@Mark:6:29 @ When his disciples heard of it, they came and took away his corpse and laid it in a tomb.

nkjv@Mark:6:33 @ But the multitudes saw them departing, and many knew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived before them and came together to Him.

nkjv@Mark:6:34 @ And Jesus, when He came out, saw a great multitude and was moved with compassion for them, because they were like sheep not having a shepherd. So He began to teach them many things.

nkjv@Mark:6:35 @ When the day was now far spent, His disciples came to Him and said, "This is a deserted place, and already the hour is late.

nkjv@Mark:6:41 @ And when He had taken the five loaves and the two fish, He looked up to heaven, blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and the two fish He divided among them all.

nkjv@Mark:6:47 @ Now when evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea; and He was alone on the land.

nkjv@Mark:6:48 @ Then He saw them straining at rowing, for the wind was against them. Now about the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea, and would have passed them by.

nkjv@Mark:6:51 @ Then He went up into the boat to them, and the wind ceased. And they were greatly amazed in themselves beyond measure, and marveled.

nkjv@Mark:6:53 @ When they had crossed over, they came to the land of Gennesaret and anchored there.

nkjv@Mark:6:54 @ And when they came out of the boat, immediately the people recognized Him,

nkjv@Mark:7:1 @ Then the Pharisees and some of the scribes came together to Him, having come from Jerusalem.

nkjv@Mark:7:25 @ For a woman whose young daughter had an unclean spirit heard about Him, and she came and fell at His feet.

nkjv@Mark:7:31 @ Again, departing from the region of Tyre and Sidon, He came through the midst of the region of Decapolis to the Sea of Galilee.

nkjv@Mark:8:10 @ immediately got into the boat with His disciples, and came to the region of Dalmanutha.

nkjv@Mark:8:11 @ Then the Pharisees came out and began to dispute with Him, seeking from Him a sign from heaven, testing Him.

nkjv@Mark:8:16 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "It is because we have no bread."

nkjv@Mark:8:22 @ Then He came to Bethsaida; and they brought a blind man to Him, and begged Him to touch him.

nkjv@Mark:8:27 @ Now Jesus and His disciples went out to the towns of Caesarea Philippi; and on the road He asked His disciples, saying to them, "Who do men say that I am?"

nkjv@Mark:8:29 @ He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said to Him, "You are the Christ."

nkjv@Mark:8:38 @ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels."

nkjv@Mark:9:2 @ Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and led them up on a high mountain apart by themselves; and He was transfigured before them.

nkjv@Mark:9:3 @ His clothes became shining, exceedingly white, like snow, such as no launderer on earth can whiten them.

nkjv@Mark:9:7 @ And a cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!"

nkjv@Mark:9:9 @ Now as they came down from the mountain, He commanded them that they should tell no one the things they had seen, till the Son of Man had risen from the dead.

nkjv@Mark:9:14 @ And when He came to the disciples, He saw a great multitude around them, and scribes disputing with them.

nkjv@Mark:9:15 @ Immediately, when they saw Him, all the people were greatly amazed, and running to Him, greeted Him.

nkjv@Mark:9:18 @ And wherever it seizes him, it throws him down; he foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth, and becomes rigid. So I spoke to Your disciples, that they should cast it out, but they could not."

nkjv@Mark:9:20 @ Then they brought him to Him. And when he saw Him, immediately the spirit convulsed him, and he fell on the ground and wallowed, foaming at the mouth.

nkjv@Mark:9:25 @ When Jesus saw that the people came running together, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "Deaf and dumb spirit, I command you, come out of him and enter him no more!"

nkjv@Mark:9:26 @ Then the spirit cried out, convulsed him greatly, and came out of him. And he became as one dead, so that many said, "He is dead."

nkjv@Mark:9:33 @ Then He came to Capernaum. And when He was in the house He asked them, "What was it you disputed among yourselves on the road?"

nkjv@Mark:9:34 @ But they kept silent, for on the road they had disputed among themselves who would be the greatest.

nkjv@Mark:9:37 @ "Whoever receives one of these little children in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me, receives not Me but Him who sent Me."

nkjv@Mark:9:38 @ Now John answered Him, saying, "Teacher, we saw someone who does not follow us casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow us."

nkjv@Mark:9:39 @ But Jesus said, "Do not forbid him, for no one who works a miracle in My name can soon afterward speak evil of Me.

nkjv@Mark:9:41 @ For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.

nkjv@Mark:9:45 @ And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched--

nkjv@Mark:10:1 @ Then He arose from there and came to the region of Judea by the other side of the Jordan. And multitudes gathered to Him again, and as He was accustomed, He taught them again.

nkjv@Mark:10:2 @ The Pharisees came and asked Him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?" testing Him.

nkjv@Mark:10:10 @ In the house His disciples also asked Him again about the same matter.

nkjv@Mark:10:17 @ Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?"

nkjv@Mark:10:25 @ It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Mark:10:26 @ And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, "Who then can be saved?"

nkjv@Mark:10:32 @ Now they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them; and they were amazed. And as they followed they were afraid. Then He took the twelve aside again and began to tell them the things that would happen to Him:

nkjv@Mark:10:35 @ Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, "Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask."

nkjv@Mark:10:38 @ But Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"

nkjv@Mark:10:39 @ They said to Him, "We are able." So Jesus said to them, "You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptized with you will be baptized;

nkjv@Mark:10:41 @ And when the ten heard it, they began to be greatly displeased with James and John.

nkjv@Mark:10:43 @ Yet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.

nkjv@Mark:10:46 @ Now they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the road begging.

nkjv@Mark:10:50 @ And throwing aside his garment, he rose and came to Jesus.

nkjv@Mark:11:9 @ Then those who went before and those who followed cried out, saying: "Hosanna! "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!'

nkjv@Mark:11:10 @ Blessed is the kingdom of our father David That comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"

nkjv@Mark:11:13 @ And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs.

nkjv@Mark:11:15 @ So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

nkjv@Mark:11:27 @ Then they came again to Jerusalem. And as He was walking in the temple, the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders came to Him.

nkjv@Mark:11:31 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "If we say, "From heaven,' He will say, "Why then did you not believe him?'

nkjv@Mark:12:4 @ Again he sent them another servant, and at him they threw stones, wounded him in the head, and sent him away shamefully treated.

nkjv@Mark:12:7 @ But those vinedressers said among themselves, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

nkjv@Mark:12:18 @ Then some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to Him; and they asked Him, saying:

nkjv@Mark:12:26 @ But concerning the dead, that they rise, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the burning bush passage, how God spoke to him, saying, "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'?

nkjv@Mark:12:28 @ Then one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, perceiving that He had answered them well, asked Him, "Which is the first commandment of all?"

nkjv@Mark:12:42 @ Then one poor widow came and threw in two mites, which make a quadrans.

nkjv@Mark:13:3 @ Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked Him privately,

nkjv@Mark:13:6 @ For many will come in My name, saying, "I am He,' and will deceive many.

nkjv@Mark:13:8 @ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows.

nkjv@Mark:13:13 @ And you will be hated by all for My name's sake. But he who endures to the end shall be saved.

nkjv@Mark:14:3 @ And being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of very costly oil of spikenard. Then she broke the flask and poured it on His head.

nkjv@Mark:14:4 @ But there were some who were indignant among themselves, and said, "Why was this fragrant oil wasted?

nkjv@Mark:14:12 @ Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they killed the Passover lamb, His disciples said to Him, "Where do You want us to go and prepare, that You may eat the Passover?"

nkjv@Mark:14:16 @ So His disciples went out, and came into the city, and found it just as He had said to them; and they prepared the Passover.

nkjv@Mark:14:17 @ In the evening He came with the twelve.

nkjv@Mark:14:32 @ Then they came to a place which was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, "Sit here while I pray."

nkjv@Mark:14:33 @ And He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He began to be troubled and deeply distressed.

nkjv@Mark:14:37 @ Then He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Could you not watch one hour?

nkjv@Mark:14:39 @ Again He went away and prayed, and spoke the same words.

nkjv@Mark:14:41 @ Then He came the third time and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough! The hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

nkjv@Mark:14:43 @ And immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

nkjv@Mark:14:62 @ Jesus said, "I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven."

nkjv@Mark:14:66 @ Now as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came.

nkjv@Mark:15:7 @ And there was one named Barabbas, who was chained with his fellow rebels; they had committed murder in the rebellion.

nkjv@Mark:15:31 @ Likewise the chief priests also, mocking among themselves with the scribes, said, "He saved others; Himself He cannot save.

nkjv@Mark:15:34 @ And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?" which is translated, "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?"

nkjv@Mark:15:40 @ There were also women looking on from afar, among whom were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James the Less and of Joses, and Salome,

nkjv@Mark:15:41 @ who also followed Him and ministered to Him when He was in Galilee, and many other women who came up with Him to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Mark:16:1 @ Now when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, that they might come and anoint Him.

nkjv@Mark:16:2 @ Very early in the morning, on the first day of the week, they came to the tomb when the sun had risen.

nkjv@Mark:16:3 @ And they said among themselves, "Who will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?"

nkjv@Mark:16:8 @ So they went out quickly and fled from the tomb, for they trembled and were amazed. And they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.

nkjv@Mark:16:17 @ And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues;

nkjv@Mark:16:20 @ And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

nkjv@Luke:1:1 @ Inasmuch as many have taken in hand to set in order a narrative of those things which have been fulfilled among us,

nkjv@Luke:1:5 @ There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the division of Abijah. His wife was of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

nkjv@Luke:1:6 @ And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless.

nkjv@Luke:1:13 @ But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zacharias, for your prayer is heard; and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.

nkjv@Luke:1:18 @ And Zacharias said to the angel, "How shall I know this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years."

nkjv@Luke:1:19 @ And the angel answered and said to him, "I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God, and was sent to speak to you and bring you these glad tidings.

nkjv@Luke:1:22 @ But when he came out, he could not speak to them; and they perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple, for he beckoned to them and remained speechless.

nkjv@Luke:1:25 @ "Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to take away my reproach among people."

nkjv@Luke:1:26 @ Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,

nkjv@Luke:1:27 @ to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name was Mary.

nkjv@Luke:1:28 @ And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favored one, the Lord is with you; blessed are you among women!"

nkjv@Luke:1:31 @ And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS.

nkjv@Luke:1:42 @ Then she spoke out with a loud voice and said, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

nkjv@Luke:1:49 @ For He who is mighty has done great things for me, And holy is His name.

nkjv@Luke:1:55 @ As He spoke to our fathers, To Abraham and to his seed forever."

nkjv@Luke:1:57 @ Now Elizabeth's full time came for her to be delivered, and she brought forth a son.

nkjv@Luke:1:59 @ So it was, on the eighth day, that they came to circumcise the child; and they would have called him by the name of his father, Zacharias.

nkjv@Luke:1:61 @ But they said to her, "There is no one among your relatives who is called by this name."

nkjv@Luke:1:63 @ And he asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, saying, "His name is John." So they all marveled.

nkjv@Luke:1:65 @ Then fear came on all who dwelt around them; and all these sayings were discussed throughout all the hill country of Judea.

nkjv@Luke:1:73 @ The oath which He swore to our father Abraham:

nkjv@Luke:1:80 @ So the child grew and became strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his manifestation to Israel.

nkjv@Luke:2:1 @ And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered.

nkjv@Luke:2:8 @ Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night.

nkjv@Luke:2:16 @ And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in a manger.

nkjv@Luke:2:21 @ And when eight days were completed for the circumcision of the Child, His name was called JESUS, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb.

nkjv@Luke:2:25 @ And behold, there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon, and this man was just and devout, waiting for the Consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him.

nkjv@Luke:2:27 @ So he came by the Spirit into the temple. And when the parents brought in the Child Jesus, to do for Him according to the custom of the law,

nkjv@Luke:2:40 @ And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him.

nkjv@Luke:2:44 @ but supposing Him to have been in the company, they went a day's journey, and sought Him among their relatives and acquaintances.

nkjv@Luke:2:48 @ So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, "Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously."

nkjv@Luke:2:51 @ Then He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them, but His mother kept all these things in her heart.

nkjv@Luke:3:2 @ while Annas and Caiaphas were high priests, the word of God came to John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

nkjv@Luke:3:7 @ Then he said to the multitudes that came out to be baptized by him, "Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

nkjv@Luke:3:8 @ Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say to yourselves, "We have Abraham as our father.' For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

nkjv@Luke:3:12 @ Then tax collectors also came to be baptized, and said to him, "Teacher, what shall we do?"

nkjv@Luke:3:16 @ John answered, saying to all, "I indeed baptize you with water; but One mightier than I is coming, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.

nkjv@Luke:3:21 @ When all the people were baptized, it came to pass that Jesus also was baptized; and while He prayed, the heaven was opened.

nkjv@Luke:3:22 @ And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, "You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased."

nkjv@Luke:3:25 @ the son of Mattathiah, the son of Amos, the son of Nahum, the son of Esli, the son of Naggai,

nkjv@Luke:3:28 @ the son of Melchi, the son of Addi, the son of Cosam, the son of Elmodam, the son of Er,

nkjv@Luke:3:33 @ the son of Amminadab, the son of Ram, the son of Hezron, the son of Perez, the son of Judah,

nkjv@Luke:3:34 @ the son of Jacob, the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham, the son of Terah, the son of Nahor,

nkjv@Luke:3:36 @ the son of Cainan, the son of Arphaxad, the son of Shem, the son of Noah, the son of Lamech,

nkjv@Luke:3:38 @ the son of Enosh, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, the son of God.

nkjv@Luke:4:16 @ So He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.

nkjv@Luke:4:25 @ But I tell you truly, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elijah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, and there was a great famine throughout all the land;

nkjv@Luke:4:27 @ And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Elisha the prophet, and none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian."

nkjv@Luke:4:35 @ But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet, and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him in their midst, it came out of him and did not hurt him.

nkjv@Luke:4:36 @ Then they were all amazed and spoke among themselves, saying, "What a word this is! For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out."

nkjv@Luke:4:41 @ And demons also came out of many, crying out and saying, "You are the Christ, the Son of God!" And He, rebuking them, did not allow them to speak, for they knew that He was the Christ.

nkjv@Luke:4:42 @ Now when it was day, He departed and went into a deserted place. And the crowd sought Him and came to Him, and tried to keep Him from leaving them;

nkjv@Luke:5:7 @ So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink.

nkjv@Luke:5:8 @ When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, "Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, O Lord!"

nkjv@Luke:5:10 @ and so also were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, "Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men."

nkjv@Luke:5:13 @ Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, "I am willing; be cleansed." Immediately the leprosy left him.

nkjv@Luke:5:15 @ However, the report went around concerning Him all the more; and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by Him of their infirmities.

nkjv@Luke:5:26 @ And they were all amazed, and they glorified God and were filled with fear, saying, "We have seen strange things today!"

nkjv@Luke:5:27 @ After these things He went out and saw a tax collector named Levi, sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, "Follow Me."

nkjv@Luke:6:12 @ Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

nkjv@Luke:6:13 @ And when it was day, He called His disciples to Himself; and from them He chose twelve whom He also named apostles:

nkjv@Luke:6:14 @ Simon, whom He also named Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;

nkjv@Luke:6:15 @ Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon called the Zealot;

nkjv@Luke:6:16 @ Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot who also became a traitor.

nkjv@Luke:6:17 @ And He came down with them and stood on a level place with a crowd of His disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem, and from the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon, who came to hear Him and be healed of their diseases,

nkjv@Luke:6:22 @ Blessed are you when men hate you, And when they exclude you, And revile you, and cast out your name as evil, For the Son of Man's sake.

nkjv@Luke:6:33 @ And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.

nkjv@Luke:6:38 @ Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you."

nkjv@Luke:6:44 @ For every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush.

nkjv@Luke:6:48 @ He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock.

nkjv@Luke:6:49 @ But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great."

nkjv@Luke:7:4 @ And when they came to Jesus, they begged Him earnestly, saying that the one for whom He should do this was deserving,

nkjv@Luke:7:6 @ Then Jesus went with them. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, "Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof.

nkjv@Luke:7:8 @ For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to one, "Go,' and he goes; and to another, "Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, "Do this,' and he does it."

nkjv@Luke:7:12 @ And when He came near the gate of the city, behold, a dead man was being carried out, the only son of his mother; and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the city was with her.

nkjv@Luke:7:14 @ Then He came and touched the open coffin, and those who carried him stood still. And He said, "Young man, I say to you, arise."

nkjv@Luke:7:16 @ Then fear came upon all, and they glorified God, saying, "A great prophet has risen up among us"; and, "God has visited His people."

nkjv@Luke:7:22 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them.

nkjv@Luke:7:28 @ For I say to you, among those born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he."

nkjv@Luke:7:33 @ For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine, and you say, "He has a demon.'

nkjv@Luke:7:45 @ You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in.

nkjv@Luke:7:47 @ Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little."

nkjv@Luke:8:1 @ Now it came to pass, afterward, that He went through every city and village, preaching and bringing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with Him,

nkjv@Luke:8:5 @ "A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell by the wayside; and it was trampled down, and the birds of the air devoured it.

nkjv@Luke:8:7 @ And some fell among thorns, and the thorns sprang up with it and choked it.

nkjv@Luke:8:14 @ Now the ones that fell among thorns are those who, when they have heard, go out and are choked with cares, riches, and pleasures of life, and bring no fruit to maturity.

nkjv@Luke:8:16 @ "No one, when he has lit a lamp, covers it with a vessel or puts it under a bed, but sets it on a lampstand, that those who enter may see the light.

nkjv@Luke:8:19 @ Then His mother and brothers came to Him, and could not approach Him because of the crowd.

nkjv@Luke:8:23 @ But as they sailed He fell asleep. And a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in jeopardy.

nkjv@Luke:8:24 @ And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, "Master, Master, we are perishing!" Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm.

nkjv@Luke:8:30 @ Jesus asked him, saying, "What is your name?" And he said, "Legion," because many demons had entered him.

nkjv@Luke:8:35 @ Then they went out to see what had happened, and came to Jesus, and found the man from whom the demons had departed, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right mind. And they were afraid.

nkjv@Luke:8:41 @ And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was a ruler of the synagogue. And he fell down at Jesus' feet and begged Him to come to his house,

nkjv@Luke:8:44 @ came from behind and touched the border of His garment. And immediately her flow of blood stopped.

nkjv@Luke:8:47 @ Now when the woman saw that she was not hidden, she came trembling; and falling down before Him, she declared to Him in the presence of all the people the reason she had touched Him and how she was healed immediately.

nkjv@Luke:8:49 @ While He was still speaking, someone came from the ruler of the synagogue's house, saying to him, "Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the Teacher."

nkjv@Luke:8:51 @ When He came into the house, He permitted no one to go in except Peter, James, and John, and the father and mother of the girl.

nkjv@Luke:9:12 @ When the day began to wear away, the twelve came and said to Him, "Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding towns and country, and lodge and get provisions; for we are in a deserted place here."

nkjv@Luke:9:18 @ And it happened, as He was alone praying, that His disciples joined Him, and He asked them, saying, "Who do the crowds say that I am?"

nkjv@Luke:9:20 @ He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said, "The Christ of God."

nkjv@Luke:9:26 @ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, of him the Son of Man will be ashamed when He comes in His own glory, and in His Father's, and of the holy angels.

nkjv@Luke:9:28 @ Now it came to pass, about eight days after these sayings, that He took Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.

nkjv@Luke:9:29 @ As He prayed, the appearance of His face was altered, and His robe became white and glistening.

nkjv@Luke:9:34 @ While he was saying this, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were fearful as they entered the cloud.

nkjv@Luke:9:35 @ And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!"

nkjv@Luke:9:39 @ And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out; it convulses him so that he foams at the mouth; and it departs from him with great difficulty, bruising him.

nkjv@Luke:9:43 @ And they were all amazed at the majesty of God. But while everyone marveled at all the things which Jesus did, He said to His disciples,

nkjv@Luke:9:46 @ Then a dispute arose among them as to which of them would be greatest.

nkjv@Luke:9:48 @ and said to them, "Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all will be great."

nkjv@Luke:9:49 @ Now John answered and said, "Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us."

nkjv@Luke:9:51 @ Now it came to pass, when the time had come for Him to be received up, that He steadfastly set His face to go to Jerusalem,

nkjv@Luke:9:52 @ and sent messengers before His face. And as they went, they entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare for Him.

nkjv@Luke:9:54 @ And when His disciples James and John saw this, they said, "Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them, just as Elijah did?"

nkjv@Luke:10:3 @ Go your way; behold, I send you out as lambs among wolves.

nkjv@Luke:10:7 @ And remain in the same house, eating and drinking such things as they give, for the laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.

nkjv@Luke:10:17 @ Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, "Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name."

nkjv@Luke:10:19 @ Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

nkjv@Luke:10:20 @ Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven."

nkjv@Luke:10:30 @ Then Jesus answered and said: "A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead.

nkjv@Luke:10:31 @ Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.

nkjv@Luke:10:32 @ Likewise a Levite, when he arrived at the place, came and looked, and passed by on the other side.

nkjv@Luke:10:33 @ But a certain Samaritan, as he journeyed, came where he was. And when he saw him, he had compassion.

nkjv@Luke:10:36 @ So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?"

nkjv@Luke:10:38 @ Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.

nkjv@Luke:11:1 @ Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, "Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples."

nkjv@Luke:11:2 @ So He said to them, "When you pray, say: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.

nkjv@Luke:11:11 @ If a son asks for bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish?

nkjv@Luke:11:24 @ "When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest; and finding none, he says, "I will return to my house from which I came.'

nkjv@Luke:11:30 @ For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation.

nkjv@Luke:11:31 @ The queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a greater than Solomon is here.

nkjv@Luke:11:33 @ "No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a basket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light.

nkjv@Luke:11:34 @ The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is bad, your body also is full of darkness.

nkjv@Luke:11:36 @ If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light."

nkjv@Luke:11:53 @ And as He said these things to them, the scribes and the Pharisees began to assail Him vehemently, and to cross-examine Him about many things,

nkjv@Luke:12:1 @ In the meantime, when an innumerable multitude of people had gathered together, so that they trampled one another, He began to say to His disciples first of all, "Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy.

nkjv@Luke:12:35 @ "Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning;

nkjv@Luke:12:49 @ "I came to send fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!

nkjv@Luke:12:50 @ But I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how distressed I am till it is accomplished!

nkjv@Luke:12:51 @ Do you suppose that I came to give peace on earth? I tell you, not at all, but rather division.

nkjv@Luke:13:4 @ Or those eighteen on whom the tower in Siloam fell and killed them, do you think that they were worse sinners than all other men who dwelt in Jerusalem?

nkjv@Luke:13:6 @ He also spoke this parable: "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it and found none.

nkjv@Luke:13:16 @ So ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan has bound--think of it--for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath?"

nkjv@Luke:13:17 @ And when He said these things, all His adversaries were put to shame; and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by Him.

nkjv@Luke:13:19 @ It is like a mustard seed, which a man took and put in his garden; and it grew and became a large tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches."

nkjv@Luke:13:28 @ There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham and Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, and yourselves thrust out.

nkjv@Luke:13:31 @ On that very day some Pharisees came, saying to Him, "Get out and depart from here, for Herod wants to kill You."

nkjv@Luke:13:35 @ See! Your house is left to you desolate; and assuredly, I say to you, you shall not see Me until the time comes when you say, "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!"'

nkjv@Luke:14:9 @ and he who invited you and him come and say to you, "Give place to this man,' and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place.

nkjv@Luke:14:13 @ But when you give a feast, invite the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind.

nkjv@Luke:14:19 @ And another said, "I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I am going to test them. I ask you to have me excused.'

nkjv@Luke:14:21 @ So that servant came and reported these things to his master. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, "Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor and the maimed and the lame and the blind.'

nkjv@Luke:15:17 @ "But when he came to himself, he said, "How many of my father's hired servants have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger!

nkjv@Luke:15:20 @ "And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him.

nkjv@Luke:16:21 @ desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table. Moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.

nkjv@Luke:16:23 @ And being in torments in Hades, he lifted up his eyes and saw Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.

nkjv@Luke:16:24 @ "Then he cried and said, "Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus that he may dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.'

nkjv@Luke:18:24 @ And when Jesus saw that he became very sorrowful, He said, "How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!

nkjv@Luke:18:25 @ For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."

nkjv@Luke:20:5 @ And they reasoned among themselves, saying, "If we say, "From heaven,' He will say, "Why then did you not believe him?'

nkjv@Luke:20:14 @ But when the vinedressers saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, "This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.'

nkjv@Luke:20:27 @ Then some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, came to Him and asked Him,

nkjv@Luke:20:37 @ But even Moses showed in the burning bush passage that the dead are raised, when he called the Lord "the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'

nkjv@Luke:21:8 @ And He said: "Take heed that you not be deceived. For many will come in My name, saying, "I am He,' and, "The time has drawn near.' Therefore do not go after them.

nkjv@Luke:21:24 @ And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

nkjv@Luke:21:38 @ Then early in the morning all the people came to Him in the temple to hear Him.

nkjv@Luke:22:3 @ Then Satan entered Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered among the twelve.

nkjv@Luke:22:7 @ Then came the Day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover must be killed.

nkjv@Luke:22:17 @ Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, "Take this and divide it among yourselves;

nkjv@Luke:22:26 @ But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves.

nkjv@Luke:22:27 @ For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves.

nkjv@Luke:22:33 @ But he said to Him, "Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death."

nkjv@Luke:22:40 @ When He came to the place, He said to them, "Pray that you may not enter into temptation."

nkjv@Luke:22:44 @ And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

nkjv@Luke:22:58 @ And after a little while another saw him and said, "You also are of them." But Peter said, "Man, I am not!"

nkjv@Luke:22:66 @ As soon as it was day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their council, saying,

nkjv@Luke:22:70 @ Then they all said, "Are You then the Son of God?" So He said to them, "You rightly say that I am."

nkjv@Luke:23:50 @ Now behold, there was a man named Joseph, a council member, a good and just man.

nkjv@Luke:24:1 @ Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared.

nkjv@Luke:24:5 @ Then, as they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, "Why do you seek the living among the dead?

nkjv@Luke:24:10 @ It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them, who told these things to the apostles.

nkjv@Luke:24:13 @ Now behold, two of them were traveling that same day to a village called Emmaus, which was seven miles from Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:24:18 @ Then the one whose name was Cleopas answered and said to Him, "Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happened there in these days?"

nkjv@Luke:24:23 @ When they did not find His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels who said He was alive.

nkjv@Luke:24:30 @ Now it came to pass, as He sat at the table with them, that He took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.

nkjv@Luke:24:47 @ and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

nkjv@Luke:24:51 @ Now it came to pass, while He blessed them, that He was parted from them and carried up into heaven.

nkjv@Luke:24:53 @ and were continually in the temple praising and blessing God. Amen.

nkjv@John:1:6 @ There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

nkjv@John:1:7 @ This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe.

nkjv@John:1:11 @ He came to His own, and His own did not receive Him.

nkjv@John:1:12 @ But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name:

nkjv@John:1:14 @ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

nkjv@John:1:17 @ For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

nkjv@John:1:20 @ He confessed, and did not deny, but confessed, "I am not the Christ."

nkjv@John:1:21 @ And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" He said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No."

nkjv@John:1:23 @ He said: "I am "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Make straight the way of the LORD,"' as the prophet Isaiah said."

nkjv@John:1:26 @ John answered them, saying, "I baptize with water, but there stands One among you whom you do not know.

nkjv@John:1:27 @ It is He who, coming after me, is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose."

nkjv@John:1:29 @ The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

nkjv@John:1:31 @ I did not know Him; but that He should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water."

nkjv@John:1:36 @ And looking at Jesus as He walked, he said, "Behold the Lamb of God!"

nkjv@John:1:39 @ He said to them, "Come and see." They came and saw where He was staying, and remained with Him that day (now it was about the tenth hour).

nkjv@John:2:9 @ When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom.

nkjv@John:2:23 @ Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name when they saw the signs which He did.

nkjv@John:3:1 @ There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews.

nkjv@John:3:2 @ This man came to Jesus by night and said to Him, "Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do these signs that You do unless God is with him."

nkjv@John:3:13 @ No one has ascended to heaven but He who came down from heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven.

nkjv@John:3:18 @ "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

nkjv@John:3:22 @ After these things Jesus and His disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them and baptized.

nkjv@John:3:23 @ Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. And they came and were baptized.

nkjv@John:3:26 @ And they came to John and said to him, "Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified--behold, He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him!"

nkjv@John:3:28 @ You yourselves bear me witness, that I said, "I am not the Christ,' but, "I have been sent before Him.'

nkjv@John:4:4 @ But He needed to go through Samaria.

nkjv@John:4:5 @ So He came to a city of Samaria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

nkjv@John:4:7 @ A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, "Give Me a drink."

nkjv@John:4:9 @ Then the woman of Samaria said to Him, "How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?" For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.

nkjv@John:4:26 @ Jesus said to her, "I who speak to you am He."

nkjv@John:4:27 @ And at this point His disciples came, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no one said, "What do You seek?" or, "Why are You talking with her?"

nkjv@John:4:30 @ Then they went out of the city and came to Him.

nkjv@John:4:39 @ And many of the Samaritans of that city believed in Him because of the word of the woman who testified, "He told me all that I ever did."

nkjv@John:4:40 @ So when the Samaritans had come to Him, they urged Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.

nkjv@John:4:45 @ So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they also had gone to the feast.

nkjv@John:4:46 @ So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

nkjv@John:4:53 @ So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, "Your son lives." And he himself believed, and his whole household.

nkjv@John:5:3 @ In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water.

nkjv@John:5:7 @ The sick man answered Him, "Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me."

nkjv@John:5:35 @ He was the burning and shining lamp, and you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light.

nkjv@John:5:43 @ I have come in My Father's name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.

nkjv@John:6:9 @ "There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?"

nkjv@John:6:16 @ Now when evening came, His disciples went down to the sea,

nkjv@John:6:23 @ however, other boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks--

nkjv@John:6:24 @ when the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they also got into boats and came to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

nkjv@John:6:35 @ And Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.

nkjv@John:6:41 @ The Jews then complained about Him, because He said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven."

nkjv@John:6:43 @ Jesus therefore answered and said to them, "Do not murmur among yourselves.

nkjv@John:6:48 @ I am the bread of life.

nkjv@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world."

nkjv@John:6:52 @ The Jews therefore quarreled among themselves, saying, "How can this Man give us His flesh to eat?"

nkjv@John:6:58 @ This is the bread which came down from heaven--not as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead. He who eats this bread will live forever."

nkjv@John:7:8 @ You go up to this feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, for My time has not yet fully come."

nkjv@John:7:12 @ And there was much complaining among the people concerning Him. Some said, "He is good"; others said, "No, on the contrary, He deceives the people."

nkjv@John:7:28 @ Then Jesus cried out, as He taught in the temple, saying, "You both know Me, and you know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.

nkjv@John:7:29 @ But I know Him, for I am from Him, and He sent Me."

nkjv@John:7:34 @ You will seek Me and not find Me, and where I am you cannot come."

nkjv@John:7:35 @ Then the Jews said among themselves, "Where does He intend to go that we shall not find Him? Does He intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

nkjv@John:7:36 @ What is this thing that He said, "You will seek Me and not find Me, and where I am you cannot come'?"

nkjv@John:7:43 @ So there was a division among the people because of Him.

nkjv@John:7:45 @ Then the officers came to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, "Why have you not brought Him?"

nkjv@John:7:50 @ Nicodemus (he who came to Jesus by night, being one of them) said to them,

nkjv@John:8:2 @ Now early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and He sat down and taught them.

nkjv@John:8:7 @ So when they continued asking Him, He raised Himself up and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first."

nkjv@John:8:12 @ Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life."

nkjv@John:8:14 @ Jesus answered and said to them, "Even if I bear witness of Myself, My witness is true, for I know where I came from and where I am going; but you do not know where I come from and where I am going.

nkjv@John:8:16 @ And yet if I do judge, My judgment is true; for I am not alone, but I am with the Father who sent Me.

nkjv@John:8:18 @ I am One who bears witness of Myself, and the Father who sent Me bears witness of Me."

nkjv@John:8:21 @ Then Jesus said to them again, "I am going away, and you will seek Me, and will die in your sin. Where I go you cannot come."

nkjv@John:8:23 @ And He said to them, "You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

nkjv@John:8:24 @ Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins."

nkjv@John:8:28 @ Then Jesus said to them, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things.

nkjv@John:8:33 @ They answered Him, "We are Abraham's descendants, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How can You say, "You will be made free'?"

nkjv@John:8:37 @ "I know that you are Abraham's descendants, but you seek to kill Me, because My word has no place in you.

nkjv@John:8:39 @ They answered and said to Him, "Abraham is our father." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham.

nkjv@John:8:40 @ But now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told you the truth which I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.

nkjv@John:8:42 @ Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God; nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me.

nkjv@John:8:48 @ Then the Jews answered and said to Him, "Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and have a demon?"

nkjv@John:8:52 @ Then the Jews said to Him, "Now we know that You have a demon! Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and You say, "If anyone keeps My word he shall never taste death.'

nkjv@John:8:53 @ Are You greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead. Who do You make Yourself out to be?"

nkjv@John:8:56 @ Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad."

nkjv@John:8:57 @ Then the Jews said to Him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?"

nkjv@John:8:58 @ Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM."

nkjv@John:9:5 @ As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world."

nkjv@John:9:7 @ And He said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.

nkjv@John:9:9 @ Some said, "This is he." Others said, "He is like him." He said, "I am he."

nkjv@John:9:11 @ He answered and said, "A Man called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes and said to me, "Go to the pool of Siloam and wash.' So I went and washed, and I received sight."

nkjv@John:9:16 @ Therefore some of the Pharisees said, "This Man is not from God, because He does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?" And there was a division among them.

nkjv@John:10:1 @ "Most assuredly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

nkjv@John:10:3 @ To him the doorkeeper opens, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

nkjv@John:10:7 @ Then Jesus said to them again, "Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.

nkjv@John:10:8 @ All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them.

nkjv@John:10:9 @ I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.

nkjv@John:10:11 @ "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep.

nkjv@John:10:14 @ I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own.

nkjv@John:10:19 @ Therefore there was a division again among the Jews because of these sayings.

nkjv@John:10:25 @ Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me.

nkjv@John:10:35 @ If He called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),

nkjv@John:10:36 @ do you say of Him whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, "You are blaspheming,' because I said, "I am the Son of God'?

nkjv@John:10:41 @ Then many came to Him and said, "John performed no sign, but all the things that John spoke about this Man were true."

nkjv@John:11:15 @ And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you may believe. Nevertheless let us go to him."

nkjv@John:11:17 @ So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

nkjv@John:11:25 @ Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.

nkjv@John:11:29 @ As soon as she heard that, she arose quickly and came to Him.

nkjv@John:11:32 @ Then, when Mary came where Jesus was, and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying to Him, "Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died."

nkjv@John:11:33 @ Therefore, when Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her weeping, He groaned in the spirit and was troubled.

nkjv@John:11:38 @ Then Jesus, again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it.

nkjv@John:11:44 @ And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Loose him, and let him go."

nkjv@John:11:54 @ Therefore Jesus no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there into the country near the wilderness, to a city called Ephraim, and there remained with His disciples.

nkjv@John:11:56 @ Then they sought Jesus, and spoke among themselves as they stood in the temple, "What do you think--that He will not come to the feast?"

nkjv@John:12:1 @ Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was who had been dead, whom He had raised from the dead.

nkjv@John:12:9 @ Now a great many of the Jews knew that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus' sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.

nkjv@John:12:13 @ took branches of palm trees and went out to meet Him, and cried out: "Hosanna! "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD!' The King of Israel!"

nkjv@John:12:19 @ The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, "You see that you are accomplishing nothing. Look, the world has gone after Him!"

nkjv@John:12:20 @ Now there were certain Greeks among those who came up to worship at the feast.

nkjv@John:12:21 @ Then they came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and asked him, saying, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."

nkjv@John:12:22 @ Philip came and told Andrew, and in turn Andrew and Philip told Jesus.

nkjv@John:12:26 @ If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor.

nkjv@John:12:32 @ And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples to Myself."

nkjv@John:12:42 @ Nevertheless even among the rulers many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue;

nkjv@John:13:6 @ Then He came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to Him, "Lord, are You washing my feet?"

nkjv@John:13:7 @ Jesus answered and said to him, "What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will know after this."

nkjv@John:13:13 @ You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am.

nkjv@John:13:33 @ Little children, I shall be with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, "Where I am going, you cannot come,' so now I say to you.

nkjv@John:13:36 @ Simon Peter said to Him, "Lord, where are You going?" Jesus answered him, "Where I am going you cannot follow Me now, but you shall follow Me afterward."

nkjv@John:14:3 @ And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.

nkjv@Acts:12:18 @ Then, as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.

nkjv@Acts:12:19 @ But when Herod had searched for him and not found him, he examined the guards and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.

nkjv@Acts:12:20 @ Now Herod had been very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon; but they came to him with one accord, and having made Blastus the king's personal aide their friend, they asked for peace, because their country was supplied with food by the king's country.

nkjv@Acts:12:25 @ And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem when they had fulfilled their ministry, and they also took with them John whose surname was Mark.

nkjv@Acts:13:5 @ And when they arrived in Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. They also had John as their assistant.

nkjv@Acts:13:6 @ Now when they had gone through the island to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew whose name was Bar-Jesus,

nkjv@Acts:13:8 @ But Elymas the sorcerer (for so his name is translated) withstood them, seeking to turn the proconsul away from the faith.

nkjv@Acts:13:13 @ Now when Paul and his party set sail from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia; and John, departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.

nkjv@Acts:13:14 @ But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day and sat down.

nkjv@Acts:13:20 @ "After that He gave them judges for about four hundred and fifty years, until Samuel the prophet.

nkjv@Acts:13:21 @ And afterward they asked for a king; so God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.

nkjv@Acts:13:25 @ And as John was finishing his course, he said, "Who do you think I am? I am not He. But behold, there comes One after me, the sandals of whose feet I am not worthy to loose.'

nkjv@Acts:13:26 @ "Men and brethren, sons of the family of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, to you the word of this salvation has been sent.

nkjv@Acts:13:31 @ He was seen for many days by those who came up with Him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are His witnesses to the people.

nkjv@Acts:13:44 @ On the next Sabbath almost the whole city came together to hear the word of God.

nkjv@Acts:13:51 @ But they shook off the dust from their feet against them, and came to Iconium.

nkjv@Acts:14:6 @ they became aware of it and fled to Lystra and Derbe, cities of Lycaonia, and to the surrounding region.

nkjv@Acts:14:14 @ But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard this, they tore their clothes and ran in among the multitude, crying out

nkjv@Acts:14:15 @ and saying, "Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men with the same nature as you, and preach to you that you should turn from these useless things to the living God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all things that are in them,

nkjv@Acts:14:19 @ Then Jews from Antioch and Iconium came there; and having persuaded the multitudes, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing him to be dead.

nkjv@Acts:14:24 @ And after they had passed through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.

nkjv@Acts:15:1 @ And certain men came down from Judea and taught the brethren, "Unless you are circumcised according to the custom of Moses, you cannot be saved."

nkjv@Acts:15:3 @ So, being sent on their way by the church, they passed through Phoenicia and Samaria, describing the conversion of the Gentiles; and they caused great joy to all the brethren.

nkjv@Acts:15:6 @ Now the apostles and elders came together to consider this matter.

nkjv@Acts:15:7 @ And when there had been much dispute, Peter rose up and said to them: "Men and brethren, you know that a good while ago God chose among us, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe.

nkjv@Acts:15:11 @ But we believe that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ we shall be saved in the same manner as they."

nkjv@Acts:15:12 @ Then all the multitude kept silent and listened to Barnabas and Paul declaring how many miracles and wonders God had worked through them among the Gentiles.

nkjv@Acts:15:13 @ And after they had become silent, James answered, saying, "Men and brethren, listen to me:

nkjv@Acts:15:14 @ Simon has declared how God at the first visited the Gentiles to take out of them a people for His name.

nkjv@Acts:15:17 @ So that the rest of mankind may seek the LORD. Even all the Gentiles who are called by My name, Says the LORD who does all these things.'

nkjv@Acts:15:19 @ Therefore I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God,

nkjv@Acts:15:22 @ Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas, namely, Judas who was also named Barsabas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren.

nkjv@Acts:15:26 @ men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Acts:15:27 @ We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who will also report the same things by word of mouth.

nkjv@Acts:15:30 @ So when they were sent off, they came to Antioch; and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the letter.

nkjv@Acts:15:38 @ But Paul insisted that they should not take with them the one who had departed from them in Pamphylia, and had not gone with them to the work.

nkjv@Acts:15:39 @ Then the contention became so sharp that they parted from one another. And so Barnabas took Mark and sailed to Cyprus;

nkjv@Acts:16:1 @ Then he came to Derbe and Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a certain Jewish woman who believed, but his father was Greek.

nkjv@Acts:16:8 @ So passing by Mysia, they came down to Troas.

nkjv@Acts:16:11 @ Therefore, sailing from Troas, we ran a straight course to Samothrace, and the next day came to Neapolis,

nkjv@Acts:16:14 @ Now a certain woman named Lydia heard us. She was a seller of purple from the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God. The Lord opened her heart to heed the things spoken by Paul.

nkjv@Acts:16:18 @ And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her." And he came out that very hour.

nkjv@Acts:16:33 @ And he took them the same hour of the night and washed their stripes. And immediately he and all his family were baptized.

nkjv@Acts:16:39 @ Then they came and pleaded with them and brought them out, and asked them to depart from the city.

nkjv@Acts:17:1 @ Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a synagogue of the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:17:13 @ But when the Jews from Thessalonica learned that the word of God was preached by Paul at Berea, they came there also and stirred up the crowds.

nkjv@Acts:17:33 @ So Paul departed from among them.

nkjv@Acts:17:34 @ However, some men joined him and believed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them.

nkjv@Acts:18:2 @ And he found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla (because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome); and he came to them.

nkjv@Acts:18:3 @ So, because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and worked; for by occupation they were tentmakers.

nkjv@Acts:18:6 @ But when they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook his garments and said to them, "Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean. From now on I will go to the Gentiles."

nkjv@Acts:18:7 @ And he departed from there and entered the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.

nkjv@Acts:18:10 @ for I am with you, and no one will attack you to hurt you; for I have many people in this city."

nkjv@Acts:18:11 @ And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

nkjv@Acts:18:15 @ But if it is a question of words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves; for I do not want to be a judge of such matters."

nkjv@Acts:18:19 @ And he came to Ephesus, and left them there; but he himself entered the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews.

nkjv@Acts:18:24 @ Now a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man and mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesus.

nkjv@Acts:19:1 @ And it happened, while Apollos was at Corinth, that Paul, having passed through the upper regions, came to Ephesus. And finding some disciples

nkjv@Acts:19:5 @ When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

nkjv@Acts:19:6 @ And when Paul had laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.

nkjv@Acts:19:13 @ Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists took it upon themselves to call the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, "We exorcise you by the Jesus whom Paul preaches."

nkjv@Acts:19:17 @ This became known both to all Jews and Greeks dwelling in Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

nkjv@Acts:19:18 @ And many who had believed came confessing and telling their deeds.

nkjv@Acts:19:24 @ For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Diana, brought no small profit to the craftsmen.

nkjv@Acts:20:2 @ Now when he had gone over that region and encouraged them with many words, he came to Greece

nkjv@Acts:20:7 @ Now on the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul, ready to depart the next day, spoke to them and continued his message until midnight.

nkjv@Acts:20:8 @ There were many lamps in the upper room where they were gathered together.

nkjv@Acts:20:9 @ And in a window sat a certain young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep. He was overcome by sleep; and as Paul continued speaking, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead.

nkjv@Acts:20:14 @ And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and came to Mitylene.

nkjv@Acts:20:15 @ We sailed from there, and the next day came opposite Chios. The following day we arrived at Samos and stayed at Trogyllium. The next day we came to Miletus.

nkjv@Acts:20:18 @ And when they had come to him, he said to them: "You know, from the first day that I came to Asia, in what manner I always lived among you,

nkjv@Acts:20:25 @ "And indeed, now I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more.

nkjv@Acts:20:26 @ Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men.

nkjv@Acts:20:28 @ Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.

nkjv@Acts:20:29 @ For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.

nkjv@Acts:20:30 @ Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves.

nkjv@Acts:20:32 @ "So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

nkjv@Acts:21:1 @ Now it came to pass, that when we had departed from them and set sail, running a straight course we came to Cos, the following day to Rhodes, and from there to Patara.

nkjv@Acts:21:7 @ And when we had finished our voyage from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, greeted the brethren, and stayed with them one day.

nkjv@Acts:21:8 @ On the next day we who were Paul's companions departed and came to Caesarea, and entered the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.

nkjv@Acts:21:10 @ And as we stayed many days, a certain prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.

nkjv@Acts:21:13 @ Then Paul answered, "What do you mean by weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus."

nkjv@Acts:21:18 @ On the following day Paul went in with us to James, and all the elders were present.

nkjv@Acts:21:19 @ When he had greeted them, he told in detail those things which God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.

nkjv@Acts:21:21 @ but they have been informed about you that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children nor to walk according to the customs.

nkjv@Acts:21:31 @ Now as they were seeking to kill him, news came to the commander of the garrison that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.

nkjv@Acts:21:33 @ Then the commander came near and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and he asked who he was and what he had done.

nkjv@Acts:21:34 @ And some among the multitude cried one thing and some another. So when he could not ascertain the truth because of the tumult, he commanded him to be taken into the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:21:39 @ But Paul said, "I am a Jew from Tarsus, in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city; and I implore you, permit me to speak to the people."

nkjv@Acts:22:3 @ "I am indeed a Jew, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but brought up in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, taught according to the strictness of our fathers' law, and was zealous toward God as you all are today.

nkjv@Acts:22:6 @ "Now it happened, as I journeyed and came near Damascus at about noon, suddenly a great light from heaven shone around me.

nkjv@Acts:22:8 @ So I answered, "Who are You, Lord?' And He said to me, "I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.'

nkjv@Acts:22:10 @ So I said, "What shall I do, Lord?' And the Lord said to me, "Arise and go into Damascus, and there you will be told all things which are appointed for you to do.'

nkjv@Acts:22:13 @ came to me; and he stood and said to me, "Brother Saul, receive your sight.' And at that same hour I looked up at him.

nkjv@Acts:22:16 @ And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.'

nkjv@Acts:22:24 @ the commander ordered him to be brought into the barracks, and said that he should be examined under scourging, so that he might know why they shouted so against him.

nkjv@Acts:22:27 @ Then the commander came and said to him, "Tell me, are you a Roman?" He said, "Yes."

nkjv@Acts:22:29 @ Then immediately those who were about to examine him withdrew from him; and the commander was also afraid after he found out that he was a Roman, and because he had bound him.

nkjv@Acts:23:6 @ But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, "Men and brethren, I am a Pharisee, the son of a Pharisee; concerning the hope and resurrection of the dead I am being judged!"

nkjv@Acts:23:10 @ Now when there arose a great dissension, the commander, fearing lest Paul might be pulled to pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them, and bring him into the barracks.

nkjv@Acts:23:14 @ They came to the chief priests and elders, and said, "We have bound ourselves under a great oath that we will eat nothing until we have killed Paul.

nkjv@Acts:23:16 @ So when Paul's sister's son heard of their ambush, he went and entered the barracks and told Paul.

nkjv@Acts:23:33 @ When they came to Caesarea and had delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul to him.

nkjv@Acts:24:1 @ Now after five days Ananias the high priest came down with the elders and a certain orator named Tertullus. These gave evidence to the governor against Paul.

nkjv@Acts:24:5 @ For we have found this man a plague, a creator of dissension among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.

nkjv@Acts:24:7 @ But the commander Lysias came by and with great violence took him out of our hands,

nkjv@Acts:24:8 @ commanding his accusers to come to you. By examining him yourself you may ascertain all these things of which we accuse him."

nkjv@Acts:24:21 @ unless it is for this one statement which I cried out, standing among them, "Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged by you this day."'

nkjv@Acts:25:3 @ asking a favor against him, that he would summon him to Jerusalem--while they lay in ambush along the road to kill him.

nkjv@Acts:25:5 @ "Therefore," he said, "let those who have authority among you go down with me and accuse this man, to see if there is any fault in him."

nkjv@Acts:25:6 @ And when he had remained among them more than ten days, he went down to Caesarea. And the next day, sitting on the judgment seat, he commanded Paul to be brought.

nkjv@Acts:25:11 @ For if I am an offender, or have committed anything deserving of death, I do not object to dying; but if there is nothing in these things of which these men accuse me, no one can deliver me to them. I appeal to Caesar."

nkjv@Acts:25:13 @ And after some days King Agrippa and Bernice came to Caesarea to greet Festus.

nkjv@Acts:25:26 @ I have nothing certain to write to my lord concerning him. Therefore I have brought him out before you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after the examination has taken place I may have something to write.

nkjv@Acts:26:26 @ For the king, before whom I also speak freely, knows these things; for I am convinced that none of these things escapes his attention, since this thing was not done in a corner.

nkjv@Acts:26:29 @ And Paul said, "I would to God that not only you, but also all who hear me today, might become both almost and altogether such as I am, except for these chains."

nkjv@Acts:26:31 @ and when they had gone aside, they talked among themselves, saying, "This man is doing nothing deserving of death or chains."

nkjv@Acts:27:1 @ And when it was decided that we should sail to Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to one named Julius, a centurion of the Augustan Regiment.

nkjv@Acts:27:2 @ So, entering a ship of Adramyttium, we put to sea, meaning to sail along the coasts of Asia. Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, was with us.

nkjv@Acts:27:5 @ And when we had sailed over the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.

nkjv@Acts:27:8 @ Passing it with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea.

nkjv@Acts:27:22 @ And now I urge you to take heart, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

nkjv@Acts:28:3 @ But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

nkjv@Acts:28:7 @ In that region there was an estate of the leading citizen of the island, whose name was Publius, who received us and entertained us courteously for three days.

nkjv@Acts:28:9 @ So when this was done, the rest of those on the island who had diseases also came and were healed.

nkjv@Acts:28:13 @ From there we circled round and reached Rhegium. And after one day the south wind blew; and the next day we came to Puteoli,

nkjv@Acts:28:15 @ And from there, when the brethren heard about us, they came to meet us as far as Appii Forum and Three Inns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.

nkjv@Acts:28:16 @ Now when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard; but Paul was permitted to dwell by himself with the soldier who guarded him.

nkjv@Acts:28:17 @ And it came to pass after three days that Paul called the leaders of the Jews together. So when they had come together, he said to them: "Men and brethren, though I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, yet I was delivered as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

nkjv@Acts:28:20 @ For this reason therefore I have called for you, to see you and speak with you, because for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain."

nkjv@Acts:28:21 @ Then they said to him, "We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor have any of the brethren who came reported or spoken any evil of you.

nkjv@Acts:28:23 @ So when they had appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging, to whom he explained and solemnly testified of the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus from both the Law of Moses and the Prophets, from morning till evening.

nkjv@Acts:28:25 @ So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: "The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,

nkjv@Acts:28:29 @ And when he had said these words, the Jews departed and had a great dispute among themselves.

nkjv@Romans:12:16 @ Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Do not be wise in your own opinion.

nkjv@Romans:13:9 @ For the commandments, "You shall not commit adultery," "You shall not murder," "You shall not steal," "You shall not bear false witness," "You shall not covet," and if there is any other commandment, are all summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself."

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:10 @ Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:11 @ For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:12 @ Now I say this, that each of you says, "I am of Paul," or "I am of Apollos," or "I am of Cephas," or "I am of Christ."

nkjv@1Corinthians:1:13 @ Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And I, brethren, when I came to you, did not come with excellence of speech or of wisdom declaring to you the testimony of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

nkjv@1Corinthians:2:6 @ However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:3 @ for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and behaving like mere men?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:4 @ For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not carnal?

nkjv@1Corinthians:3:18 @ Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.

nkjv@1Corinthians:4:14 @ I do not write these things to shame you, but as my beloved children I warn you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:1 @ It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles--that a man has his father's wife!

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:2 @ And you are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he who has done this deed might be taken away from among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:4 @ In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together, along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,

nkjv@1Corinthians:5:11 @ But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person.

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:5 @ I say this to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not even one, who will be able to judge between his brethren?

nkjv@1Corinthians:6:11 @ And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:7:8 @ But I say to the unmarried and to the widows: It is good for them if they remain even as I am;

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:3 @ My defense to those who examine me is this:

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:8 @ Do I say these things as a mere man? Or does not the law say the same also?

nkjv@1Corinthians:9:19 @ For though I am free from all men, I have made myself a servant to all, that I might win the more;

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:6 @ Now these things became our examples, to the intent that we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:11 @ Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:19 @ What am I saying then? That an idol is anything, or what is offered to idols is anything?

nkjv@1Corinthians:10:30 @ But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for the food over which I give thanks?

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:5 @ But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head, for that is one and the same as if her head were shaved.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:6 @ For if a woman is not covered, let her also be shorn. But if it is shameful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her be covered.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:12 @ For as woman came from man, even so man also comes through woman; but all things are from God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:13 @ Judge among yourselves. Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For first of all, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must also be factions among you, that those who are approved may be recognized among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? I do not praise you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you: that the Lord Jesus on the same night in which He was betrayed took bread;

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:28 @ But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup.

nkjv@1Corinthians:11:30 @ For this reason many are weak and sick among you, and many sleep.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:4 @ There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:5 @ There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:6 @ And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:8 @ for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:9 @ to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit,

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:11 @ But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:15 @ If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:16 @ And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I am not of the body," is it therefore not of the body?

nkjv@1Corinthians:12:25 @ that there should be no schism in the body, but that the members should have the same care for one another.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:2 @ And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:11 @ When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

nkjv@1Corinthians:13:12 @ For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:16 @ Otherwise, if you bless with the spirit, how will he who occupies the place of the uninformed say "Amen" at your giving of thanks, since he does not understand what you say?

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:25 @ And thus the secrets of his heart are revealed; and so, falling down on his face, he will worship God and report that God is truly among you.

nkjv@1Corinthians:14:35 @ And if they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home; for it is shameful for women to speak in church.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:7 @ After that He was seen by James, then by all the apostles.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:9 @ For I am the least of the apostles, who am not worthy to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:10 @ But by the grace of God I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:12 @ Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:21 @ For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:22 @ For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:34 @ Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:39 @ All flesh is not the same flesh, but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.

nkjv@1Corinthians:15:45 @ And so it is written, "The first man Adam became a living being." The last Adam became a life-giving spirit.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:5 @ Now I will come to you when I pass through Macedonia (for I am passing through Macedonia).

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:11 @ Therefore let no one despise him. But send him on his journey in peace, that he may come to me; for I am waiting for him with the brethren.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:17 @ I am glad about the coming of Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus, for what was lacking on your part they supplied.

nkjv@1Corinthians:16:24 @ My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:6 @ Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:8 @ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of our trouble which came to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:19 @ For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us--by me, Silvanus, and Timothy--was not Yes and No, but in Him was Yes.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:20 @ For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.

nkjv@2Corinthians:1:23 @ Moreover I call God as witness against my soul, that to spare you I came no more to Corinth.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:3 @ And I wrote this very thing to you, lest, when I came, I should have sorrow over those from whom I ought to have joy, having confidence in you all that my joy is the joy of you all.

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:12 @ Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened to me by the Lord,

nkjv@2Corinthians:2:15 @ For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:14 @ But their minds were blinded. For until this day the same veil remains unlifted in the reading of the Old Testament, because the veil is taken away in Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:3:18 @ But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:2 @ But we have renounced the hidden things of shame, not walking in craftiness nor handling the word of God deceitfully, but by manifestation of the truth commending ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:4:13 @ And since we have the same spirit of faith, according to what is written, "I believed and therefore I spoke," we also believe and therefore speak,

nkjv@2Corinthians:5:20 @ Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:3 @ We give no offense in anything, that our ministry may not be blamed.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:13 @ Now in return for the same (I speak as to children), you also be open.

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:16 @ And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people."

nkjv@2Corinthians:6:17 @ Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:4 @ Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my boasting on your behalf. I am filled with comfort. I am exceedingly joyful in all our tribulation.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:5 @ For indeed, when we came to Macedonia, our bodies had no rest, but we were troubled on every side. Outside were conflicts, inside were fears.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:8 @ For even if I made you sorry with my letter, I do not regret it; though I did regret it. For I perceive that the same epistle made you sorry, though only for a while.

nkjv@2Corinthians:7:14 @ For if in anything I have boasted to him about you, I am not ashamed. But as we spoke all things to you in truth, even so our boasting to Titus was found true.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:8 @ I speak not by commandment, but I am testing the sincerity of your love by the diligence of others.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:9 @ For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:16 @ But thanks be to God who puts the same earnest care for you into the heart of Titus.

nkjv@2Corinthians:8:20 @ avoiding this: that anyone should blame us in this lavish gift which is administered by us--

nkjv@2Corinthians:9:4 @ lest if some Macedonians come with me and find you unprepared, we (not to mention you!) should be ashamed of this confident boasting.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:1 @ Now I, Paul, myself am pleading with you by the meekness and gentleness of Christ--who in presence am lowly among you, but being absent am bold toward you.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:2 @ But I beg you that when I am present I may not be bold with that confidence by which I intend to be bold against some, who think of us as if we walked according to the flesh.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:8 @ For even if I should boast somewhat more about our authority, which the Lord gave us for edification and not for your destruction, I shall not be ashamed--

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:12 @ For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with those who commend themselves. But they, measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

nkjv@2Corinthians:10:14 @ For we are not overextending ourselves (as though our authority did not extend to you), for it was to you that we came with the gospel of Christ;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:2 @ For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:5 @ For I consider that I am not at all inferior to the most eminent apostles.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:6 @ Even though I am untrained in speech, yet I am not in knowledge. But we have been thoroughly manifested among you in all things.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:9 @ And when I was present with you, and in need, I was a burden to no one, for what I lacked the brethren who came from Macedonia supplied. And in everything I kept myself from being burdensome to you, and so I will keep myself.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:21 @ To our shame I say that we were too weak for that! But in whatever anyone is bold--I speak foolishly--I am bold also.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:22 @ Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:23 @ Are they ministers of Christ?--I speak as a fool--I am more: in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, in prisons more frequently, in deaths often.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:26 @ in journeys often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils of my own countrymen, in perils of the Gentiles, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren;

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:29 @ Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is made to stumble, and I do not burn with indignation?

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:31 @ The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who is blessed forever, knows that I am not lying.

nkjv@2Corinthians:11:32 @ In Damascus the governor, under Aretas the king, was guarding the city of the Damascenes with a garrison, desiring to arrest me;

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:10 @ Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:11 @ I have become a fool in boasting; you have compelled me. For I ought to have been commended by you; for in nothing was I behind the most eminent apostles, though I am nothing.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:12 @ Truly the signs of an apostle were accomplished among you with all perseverance, in signs and wonders and mighty deeds.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:14 @ Now for the third time I am ready to come to you. And I will not be burdensome to you; for I do not seek yours, but you. For the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:15 @ And I will very gladly spend and be spent for your souls; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I am loved.

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:18 @ I urged Titus, and sent our brother with him. Did Titus take advantage of you? Did we not walk in the same spirit? Did we not walk in the same steps?

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:20 @ For I fear lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found by you such as you do not wish; lest there be contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, backbitings, whisperings, conceits, tumults;

nkjv@2Corinthians:12:21 @ lest, when I come again, my God will humble me among you, and I shall mourn for many who have sinned before and have not repented of the uncleanness, fornication, and lewdness which they have practiced.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:1 @ This will be the third time I am coming to you. "By the mouth of two or three witnesses every word shall be established."

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:5 @ Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?--unless indeed you are disqualified.

nkjv@2Corinthians:13:14 @ The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.

nkjv@Galatians:1:5 @ to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@Galatians:1:12 @ For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:1:16 @ to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,

nkjv@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.

nkjv@Galatians:1:19 @ But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.

nkjv@Galatians:2:2 @ And I went up by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means I might run, or had run, in vain.

nkjv@Galatians:2:4 @ And this occurred because of false brethren secretly brought in (who came in by stealth to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage),

nkjv@Galatians:2:9 @ and when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that had been given to me, they gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship, that we should go to the Gentiles and they to the circumcised.

nkjv@Galatians:2:11 @ Now when Peter had come to Antioch, I withstood him to his face, because he was to be blamed;

nkjv@Galatians:2:12 @ for before certain men came from James, he would eat with the Gentiles; but when they came, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing those who were of the circumcision.

nkjv@Galatians:3:1 @ O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed among you as crucified?

nkjv@Galatians:3:5 @ Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?--

nkjv@Galatians:3:6 @ just as Abraham "believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness."

nkjv@Galatians:3:7 @ Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham.

nkjv@Galatians:3:8 @ And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, "In you all the nations shall be blessed."

nkjv@Galatians:3:9 @ So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.

nkjv@Galatians:3:14 @ that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.

nkjv@Galatians:3:16 @ Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, "And to seeds," as of many, but as of one, "And to your Seed," who is Christ.

nkjv@Galatians:3:18 @ For if the inheritance is of the law, it is no longer of promise; but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

nkjv@Galatians:3:23 @ But before faith came, we were kept under guard by the law, kept for the faith which would afterward be revealed.

nkjv@Galatians:3:29 @ And if you are Christ's, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise.

nkjv@Galatians:4:12 @ Brethren, I urge you to become like me, for I became like you. You have not injured me at all.

nkjv@Galatians:4:18 @ But it is good to be zealous in a good thing always, and not only when I am present with you.

nkjv@Galatians:4:22 @ For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman.

nkjv@Galatians:5:20 @ idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies,

nkjv@Galatians:6:4 @ But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

nkjv@James:1:3 @ knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.

nkjv@James:1:4 @ But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.

nkjv@James:1:5 @ If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.

nkjv@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.

nkjv@James:1:7 @ For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;

nkjv@James:1:8 @ he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

nkjv@James:1:9 @ Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation,

nkjv@James:1:10 @ but the rich in his humiliation, because as a flower of the field he will pass away.

nkjv@James:1:11 @ For no sooner has the sun risen with a burning heat than it withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beautiful appearance perishes. So the rich man also will fade away in his pursuits.

nkjv@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.

nkjv@James:1:13 @ Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.

nkjv@James:1:14 @ But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.

nkjv@James:1:15 @ Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

nkjv@James:1:16 @ Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.

nkjv@James:1:19 @ So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;

nkjv@James:1:20 @ for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.

nkjv@James:1:21 @ Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.

nkjv@James:1:22 @ But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

nkjv@James:1:23 @ For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror;

nkjv@James:1:24 @ for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.

nkjv@James:1:25 @ But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.

nkjv@James:1:26 @ If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one's religion is useless.

nkjv@James:1:27 @ Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.

nkjv@James:2:1 @ My brethren, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with partiality.

nkjv@James:2:2 @ For if there should come into your assembly a man with gold rings, in fine apparel, and there should also come in a poor man in filthy clothes,

nkjv@James:2:3 @ and you pay attention to the one wearing the fine clothes and say to him, "You sit here in a good place," and say to the poor man, "You stand there," or, "Sit here at my footstool,"

nkjv@James:2:4 @ have you not shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

nkjv@James:2:5 @ Listen, my beloved brethren: Has God not chosen the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?

nkjv@James:2:6 @ But you have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you and drag you into the courts?

nkjv@James:2:7 @ Do they not blaspheme that noble name by which you are called?

nkjv@James:2:8 @ If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, "You shall love your neighbor as yourself," you do well;

nkjv@James:2:9 @ but if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors.

nkjv@James:2:10 @ For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.

nkjv@James:2:11 @ For He who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but you do murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

nkjv@James:2:12 @ So speak and so do as those who will be judged by the law of liberty.

nkjv@James:2:13 @ For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

nkjv@James:2:14 @ What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?

nkjv@James:2:15 @ If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,

nkjv@James:2:16 @ and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, be warmed and filled," but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?

nkjv@James:2:17 @ Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

nkjv@James:2:18 @ But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

nkjv@James:2:19 @ You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe--and tremble!

nkjv@James:2:20 @ But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

nkjv@James:2:21 @ Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?

nkjv@James:2:22 @ Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect?

nkjv@James:2:23 @ And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness." And he was called the friend of God.

nkjv@James:2:24 @ You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

nkjv@James:2:25 @ Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

nkjv@James:2:26 @ For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

nkjv@James:3:1 @ My brethren, let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment.

nkjv@James:3:2 @ For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.

nkjv@James:3:3 @ Indeed, we put bits in horses' mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body.

nkjv@James:3:4 @ Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires.

nkjv@James:3:5 @ Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles!

nkjv@James:3:6 @ And the tongue is a fire, a world of iniquity. The tongue is so set among our members that it defiles the whole body, and sets on fire the course of nature; and it is set on fire by hell.

nkjv@James:3:7 @ For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind.

nkjv@James:3:8 @ But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

nkjv@James:3:9 @ With it we bless our God and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in the similitude of God.

nkjv@James:3:10 @ Out of the same mouth proceed blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not to be so.

nkjv@James:3:11 @ Does a spring send forth fresh water and bitter from the same opening?

nkjv@James:3:12 @ Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh.

nkjv@James:3:13 @ Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom.

nkjv@James:3:14 @ But if you have bitter envy and self-seeking in your hearts, do not boast and lie against the truth.

nkjv@James:3:15 @ This wisdom does not descend from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic.

nkjv@James:3:16 @ For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.

nkjv@James:3:17 @ But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

nkjv@James:3:18 @ Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

nkjv@James:4:1 @ Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members?

nkjv@James:4:2 @ You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask.

nkjv@James:4:3 @ You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.

nkjv@James:4:4 @ Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.

nkjv@James:4:5 @ Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit who dwells in us yearns jealously"?

nkjv@James:4:6 @ But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble."

nkjv@James:4:7 @ Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

nkjv@James:4:8 @ Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

nkjv@James:4:9 @ Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom.

nkjv@James:4:10 @ Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.

nkjv@James:4:11 @ Do not speak evil of one another, brethren. He who speaks evil of a brother and judges his brother, speaks evil of the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge.

nkjv@James:4:12 @ There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you to judge another?

nkjv@James:4:13 @ Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit";

nkjv@James:4:14 @ whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

nkjv@James:4:15 @ Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that."

nkjv@James:4:16 @ But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.

nkjv@James:4:17 @ Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

nkjv@James:5:1 @ Come now, you rich, weep and howl for your miseries that are coming upon you!

nkjv@James:5:2 @ Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten.

nkjv@James:5:3 @ Your gold and silver are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have heaped up treasure in the last days.

nkjv@James:5:4 @ Indeed the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, cry out; and the cries of the reapers have reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.

nkjv@James:5:5 @ You have lived on the earth in pleasure and luxury; you have fattened your hearts as in a day of slaughter.

nkjv@James:5:6 @ You have condemned, you have murdered the just; he does not resist you.

nkjv@James:5:7 @ Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.

nkjv@James:5:8 @ You also be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

nkjv@James:5:9 @ Do not grumble against one another, brethren, lest you be condemned. Behold, the Judge is standing at the door!

nkjv@James:5:10 @ My brethren, take the prophets, who spoke in the name of the Lord, as an example of suffering and patience.

nkjv@James:5:11 @ Indeed we count them blessed who endure. You have heard of the perseverance of Job and seen the end intended by the Lord--that the Lord is very compassionate and merciful.

nkjv@James:5:12 @ But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your "Yes" be "Yes," and your "No," "No," lest you fall into judgment.

nkjv@James:5:13 @ Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms.

nkjv@James:5:14 @ Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.

nkjv@James:5:15 @ And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

nkjv@James:5:16 @ Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

nkjv@James:5:17 @ Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.

nkjv@James:5:18 @ And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit.

nkjv@James:5:19 @ Brethren, if anyone among you wanders from the truth, and someone turns him back,

nkjv@James:5:20 @ let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.

nkjv@1Peter:1:16 @ because it is written, "Be holy, for I am holy."

nkjv@1Peter:1:19 @ but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.

nkjv@1Peter:2:6 @ Therefore it is also contained in the Scripture, "Behold, I lay in Zion A chief cornerstone, elect, precious, And he who believes on Him will by no means be put to shame."

nkjv@1Peter:2:12 @ having your conduct honorable among the Gentiles, that when they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by your good works which they observe, glorify God in the day of visitation.

nkjv@1Peter:2:21 @ For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:

nkjv@1Peter:3:6 @ as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose daughters you are if you do good and are not afraid with any terror.

nkjv@1Peter:3:16 @ having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed.

nkjv@1Peter:4:1 @ Therefore, since Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind, for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

nkjv@1Peter:4:4 @ In regard to these, they think it strange that you do not run with them in the same flood of dissipation, speaking evil of you.

nkjv@1Peter:4:11 @ If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@1Peter:4:14 @ If you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. On their part He is blasphemed, but on your part He is glorified.

nkjv@1Peter:4:16 @ Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in this matter.

nkjv@1Peter:5:1 @ The elders who are among you I exhort, I who am a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that will be revealed:

nkjv@1Peter:5:2 @ Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly;

nkjv@1Peter:5:3 @ nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock;

nkjv@1Peter:5:9 @ Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.

nkjv@1Peter:5:11 @ To Him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

nkjv@1Peter:5:14 @ Greet one another with a kiss of love. Peace to you all who are in Christ Jesus. Amen.

nkjv@2Peter:1:13 @ Yes, I think it is right, as long as I am in this tent, to stir you up by reminding you,

nkjv@2Peter:1:17 @ For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: "This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

nkjv@2Peter:1:18 @ And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain.

nkjv@2Peter:1:21 @ for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit.

nkjv@2Peter:2:1 @ But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction.

nkjv@2Peter:2:6 @ and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly;

nkjv@2Peter:2:8 @ (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds)--

nkjv@2Peter:2:15 @ They have forsaken the right way and gone astray, following the way of Balaam the son of Beor, who loved the wages of unrighteousness;

nkjv@2Peter:3:7 @ But the heavens and the earth which are now preserved by the same word, are reserved for fire until the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

nkjv@2Peter:3:14 @ Therefore, beloved, looking forward to these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless;

nkjv@2Peter:3:18 @ but grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen.

nkjv@1John:2:12 @ I write to you, little children, Because your sins are forgiven you for His name's sake.

nkjv@1John:2:27 @ But the anointing which you have received from Him abides in you, and you do not need that anyone teach you; but as the same anointing teaches you concerning all things, and is true, and is not a lie, and just as it has taught you, you will abide in Him.

nkjv@1John:2:28 @ And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming.

nkjv@1John:3:23 @ And this is His commandment: that we should believe on the name of His Son Jesus Christ and love one another, as He gave us commandment.

nkjv@1John:4:17 @ Love has been perfected among us in this: that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world.

nkjv@1John:5:6 @ This is He who came by water and blood--Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth.

nkjv@1John:5:13 @ These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life, and that you may continue to believe in the name of the Son of God.

nkjv@1John:5:21 @ Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

nkjv@2John:1:13 @ The children of your elect sister greet you. Amen.

nkjv@3John:1:3 @ For I rejoiced greatly when brethren came and testified of the truth that is in you, just as you walk in the truth.

nkjv@3John:1:7 @ because they went forth for His name's sake, taking nothing from the Gentiles.

nkjv@3John:1:9 @ I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to have the preeminence among them, does not receive us.

nkjv@3John:1:14 @ but I hope to see you shortly, and we shall speak face to face. Peace to you. Our friends greet you. Greet the friends by name.

nkjv@Jude:1:8 @ Likewise also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries.

nkjv@Jude:1:11 @ Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah.

nkjv@Jude:1:13 @ raging waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever.
