bes@Esther:8:5 @ And Esther said, If it seem good to thee, and I have found favour in thy sight, let an order be sent that the letters sent by Aman may be reversed, that were written for the destruction of the Jews, who are in thy kingdom.

bes@Esther:8:8 @ Write ye also in my name, as it seems good to you, and seal it with my ring: for whatever orders are written at the command of the king, and sealed with my ring, it is not (note:)Or, possible(:note) lawful to gainsay them.

bes@Esther:8:9 @ So the scribes were called in the first-month, which is Nisan, on the three and twentieth day of the same year; and orders were written to the Jews, whatever the king had commanded to the (note:)Gr. stewards(:note) local governors and chiefs of the satraps, from India even to Ethiopia, a hundred and twenty-seven satraps, according to the several provinces, according to their dialects.

bes@Esther:8:10 @ And they were written by order of the king, and sealed with his ring, and they sent the letters by the posts:

bes@Esther:8:11 @ wherein he charged them to use their own laws in every city, and to help each other, and to treat their adversaries, and those who attacked them, as they pleased,

bes@Esther:8:14 @ So the horsemen went forth with haste to perform the king’s commands; and the ordinance was also published in Susa.

bes@Esther:8:15 @ And Mardochaeus went forth robed in the royal apparel, and wearing a golden crown, and a diadem of fine purple linen: and the people in Susa saw it and rejoiced.

bes@Esther:8:17 @ in every city and province wherever the ordinance was published: wherever the proclamation took place, the Jews had joy and gladness, feasting and mirth: and many of the Gentiles were circumcised, and became Jews, for fear of the Jews.

bes@Esther:9:1 @ For in the twelfth month, on the thirteenth day of the month which is Adar, the letters written by the king arrived.

bes@Esther:9:6 @ And in the city Susa the Jews slew five hundred men:

bes@Esther:9:12 @ And the king said to Esther, The Jews have slain five hundred men in the city Susa; and how, thinkest thou, have they used them in the rest of the country? What then dost thou yet ask, that it may be done for thee?

bes@Esther:9:13 @ And Esther said to the king, let it be granted to the Jews so to treat them tomorrow as to hang the ten sons of Aman.

bes@Esther:9:14 @ And he permitted it to be so done; and he gave up to the Jews of the city the bodies of the sons of Aman to hang.

bes@Esther:9:17 @ And they rested on the fourteenth of the same month, and kept it as a day of rest with joy and gladness.

bes@Esther:9:18 @ And the Jews in the city Susa assembled also on the fourteenth day and rested; and they kept also the fifteenth with joy and gladness.

bes@Esther:9:19 @ On this account then it is that the Jews dispersed in every foreign land keep the fourteenth of Adar as a (note:)Gr. good day(:note) holy day with joy, sending portions each to his neighbour.

bes@Esther:9:22 @ for on these days the Jews obtained rest from their enemies; and as to the month, which was Adar, in which a change was made for them, from mourning to joy, and from sorrow to a good day, to spend the whole of it in good days of (note:)Gr. weddings(:note) feasting and gladness, sending portions to their friends, and to the poor.

bes@Esther:9:25 @ also how he went in to the king, telling him to hang Mardochaeus: but all the calamities he tried to bring upon the Jews came upon himself, and he was hanged, and his children.

bes@Esther:9:27 @ And Mardochaeus established it, and the Jews took upon themselves, and upon their seed, and upon those that were joined to them to observe it, neither would they on any account behave differently: but these days were to be a memorial kept in every generation, and city, and family, and province.

bes@Esther:9:32 @ And Esther established it by a command for ever, and it was written for a memorial.

bes@Esther:10:2 @ And as for his strength and valour, and the wealth and glory of his kingdom, behold, they are written in the book of the Persians and Medes, for a memorial.

bes@Job:1:3 @ And his cattle consisted of seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred she-asses in the pastures, and a very great (note:)Lit. ministry(:note) household, and he had a great husbandry on the earth; and that man was most noble of the men of the east.

bes@Job:1:4 @ And his sons visiting one another prepared a banquet every day, taking with them also their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

bes@Job:1:6 @ And it came to pass on a day, that behold, the angels of God came to stand before the Lord, and the devil came with them.

bes@Job:1:13 @ And it came to pass on a certain day, that Job’s sons and his daughters were drinking wine in the house of their elder brother.

bes@Job:1:15 @ and the spoilers came and took them for a prey, and slew the servants with the sword; and I having escaped alone am come to tell thee.

bes@Job:1:17 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another messenger, and said to Job, The horsemen formed three companies against us, and surrounded the camels, and took them for a prey, and slew the servants with the sword; and I only escaped, and am come to tell thee.

bes@Job:1:18 @ While he is yet speaking, another messenger comes, saying to Job, While thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking with their elder brother,

bes@Job:1:21 @ and said, I myself came forth naked from my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither; the Lord gave, the Lord has taken away: as it seemed good to the Lord, so has it come to pass; blessed be the name of the Lord.

bes@Job:2:1 @ And it came to pass on a certain day, that the angels of God came to stand before the Lord, and the devil came among them to stand before the Lord.

bes@Job:2:3 @ And the Lord said to the devil, Hast thou then observed my servant Job, that there is none of men upon the earth like him, a harmless, true, blameless, godly man, abstaining from all evil? and he yet cleaves to innocence, whereas thou has told me to destroy his substance without cause?

bes@Job:2:7 @ So the devil went out from the Lord, and smote Job with sore boils from his feet to his head.

bes@Job:2:8 @ And he took a potsherd to scrape away the discharge, and sat upon a dung-heap outside the city.

bes@Job:2:9 @ And when much time had passed, his wife said to him, How long wilt thou hold out, saying, (note:)(2:9AA)(:note) Behold, I wait yet a little while, expecting the hope of my deliverance? (2:9BA) for, behold, thy memorial is abolished from the earth, even thy sons and daughters, the pangs and pains of my womb which I bore in vain with sorrows; (2:9CA) and thou thyself sittest down to spend the nights in the open air among the corruption of worms, (2:9CA) and I am a wanderer and a servant from place to place and house to house, waiting for the setting of the sun, that I may rest from my labours and my pangs which now beset me: (2:9DA) but say some word against the Lord, and die.

bes@Job:2:10 @ But he looked on her, and said to her, Thou hast spoken like one of the foolish women. If we have received good things of the hand of the Lord, shall we not endure evil things? In all these things that happened to him, Job sinned not at all with his lips before God.

bes@Job:2:11 @ Now his three friends having heard of all the evil that was come upon him, came to him each from his own country: Eliphaz the king of the Thaemans, Baldad sovereign of the Saucheans, Sophar king of he Minaeans: and they came to him with one accord, to comfort and to visit him.

bes@Job:2:12 @ And when they saw him from a distance they did not know him; and they cried with a loud voice, and wept, and rent every one his garment, and sprinkled dust upon their heads,

bes@Job:3:4 @ Let that (note:)Hebrews. and Alex. day(:note) night be darkness, and let not the Lord regard it from above, neither let light come upon it.

bes@Job:3:5 @ But let darkness and the shadow of death seize it; let blackness come upon it;

bes@Job:3:7 @ But let that night be pain, and let not mirth come upon it, nor joy.

bes@Job:3:8 @ But let him that curses that day curse it, even he that is ready to attack the great (note:)Or, monster; See Ge strkjv@1:21; Hebrews. Leviathan; Possibly the LXX refer to Isa strkjv@27:1(:note) whale.

bes@Job:3:9 @ Let the stars of that night be darkened; let it remain dark, and not come into light; and let it not see the morning star arise:

bes@Job:3:10 @ because it shut not up the gates of my mother’s womb, for so it would have removed sorrow from my eyes.

bes@Job:3:14 @ with kings and councillors of the earth, who gloried in their swords;

bes@Job:3:15 @ or with rulers, whose gold was abundant, who filled their houses with silver:

bes@Job:3:20 @ For why is light given to those who are in bitterness, and life to those souls which are in griefs?

bes@Job:3:21 @ who desire death, and obtain it not, digging for it as for treasures;

bes@Job:3:22 @ and would be very joyful if they should gain it?

bes@Job:3:24 @ For my groaning comes before my food, and I weep being beset with terror.

bes@Job:3:25 @ For the terror of which I meditated has come upon me, and that which I had feared has befallen me.

bes@Job:4:1 @ Then Eliphaz the Thaemanite answered and said,

bes@Job:4:4 @ and hast supported the failing with words, and hast imparted courage to feeble knees.

bes@Job:4:13 @ But as when terror falls upon men, with dread and a sound in the night,

bes@Job:4:15 @ And a spirit came before my face; and my hair and flesh quivered.

bes@Job:4:16 @ I arose and perceived it not: I looked, and there, was no form before my eyes: but I only heard a breath and a voice, saying,

bes@Job:4:19 @ But as for them that dwell in houses of clay, of whom we also are formed of the same clay, he smites them like a moth.

bes@Job:4:21 @ For he blows upon them, and they are withered: they have perished for lack of wisdom.

bes@Job:5:3 @ And I have seen foolish ones taking root: but suddenly their habitation was devoured.

bes@Job:5:5 @ For what they have collected, the just shall eat; but they shall not be delivered out of calamities: let their strength be utterly exhausted.

bes@Job:5:18 @ for he causes a man to be in pain, and restores him again: he smites, and his hands heal.

bes@Job:5:23 @ For the wild beasts of the field shall be at peace with thee.

bes@Job:5:26 @ And thou shalt come to the grave like ripe corn reaped in its season, or as a heap of the corn-flour collected in proper time.

bes@Job:5:27 @ Behold, we have thus sought out these matters; these are what we have heard: but do thou reflect with thyself, if thou hast done anything wrong.

bes@Job:6:3 @ And verily they would be heavier than the sand by the seashore: but, as it seems, my words are vain.

bes@Job:6:6 @ Shall bread be eaten without salt? or again, is there taste in empty words?

bes@Job:6:8 @ For oh that he would grant my desire, and my petition might come, and the Lord would grant my hope!

bes@Job:6:10 @ Let the grave be my city, upon the walls of which I have leaped: I will not (note:)Gr. spare(:note) shrink from it; for I have not denied the holy words of my God.

bes@Job:6:14 @ Mercy has rejected me; and the visitation of the Lord has disregarded me.

bes@Job:6:17 @ When it has melted at the approach of heat, it is not known what it was.

bes@Job:6:19 @ Behold the ways of the Thaemanites, ye that mark the paths of the Sabaeans.

bes@Job:6:20 @ They too that trust in cities and riches shall come to shame.

bes@Job:6:21 @ But ye also have come to me without pity; so that beholding my wound ye are afraid.

bes@Job:6:25 @ But as it seems, the words of a true man are vain, (note:)Gr. for(:note) because I do not ask strength of you.

bes@Job:6:26 @ Neither will your reproof cause me to cease my words, for neither will I endure the sound of your speech.

bes@Job:6:29 @ Sit down now, and let there not be unrighteousness; and unite again with the just.

bes@Job:6:30 @ For there is no injustice in my tongue; and does not my throat meditate understanding?

bes@Job:7:2 @ Or as a servant that fears his master, and one who has grasped a shadow? or as a hireling waiting for his pay?

bes@Job:7:3 @ So have I also endured months of vanity, and nights of pain have been appointed me.

bes@Job:7:4 @ Whenever I lie down, I say, When will it be day? and whenever I rise up, again I say when will it be evening? and I am full of pains from evening to morning.

bes@Job:7:5 @ And my body is covered with (note:)Gr. the corruption of worms(:note) loathsome worms; and I waste away, scraping off clods of dust from my eruption.

bes@Job:7:10 @ and he shall surely not return to his own house, neither shall his place know him any more.

bes@Job:7:11 @ Then neither will I refrain my mouth: I will speak being in distress; being in (note:)Gr. straits, etc.(:note) anguish I will disclose the bitterness of my soul.

bes@Job:7:13 @ I said that my bed should comfort me, and I would privately counsel with myself on my couch.

bes@Job:7:14 @ Thou scarest me with dreams, and dost terrify me with visions.

bes@Job:7:15 @ Thou wilt separate life from my spirit; and yet keep my bones from death.

bes@Job:7:18 @ Wilt thou visit him till the morning, and judge him till the time of rest?

bes@Job:7:19 @ How long dost thou not let me alone, nor let me go, until I shall swallow down my spittle?

bes@Job:7:21 @ Why hast thou not forgotten my iniquity, and purged my sin? but now I shall depart to the earth; and in the morning I am no more.

bes@Job:8:1 @ Then Baldad the Sauchite answered, and said,

bes@Job:8:6 @ If thou art pure and true, he will hearken to thy supplication, and will restore to thee the habitation of righteousness.

bes@Job:8:11 @ Does the rush flourish without water, or shall the flag grow up without moisture?

bes@Job:8:12 @ When it is yet on the root, and though it has not been cut down, does not any herb wither before it has received moisture?

bes@Job:8:16 @ For it is moist under the sun, and his branch shall come forth out of his (note:)Or, corruption(:note) dung-heap.

bes@Job:8:21 @ But he will fill with laughter the mouth of the sincere, and their lips with thanksgiving.

bes@Job:8:22 @ But their adversaries shall clothe themselves with shame; and the habitation of the ungodly shall perish.

bes@Job:9:2 @ I know of a truth that it is so: for how shall a mortal man be just before the Lord?

bes@Job:9:3 @ For if he would enter into judgement with him, (note:)Or, he(:note) God would not hearken to him, so that he should answer to one of his charges of a thousand.

bes@Job:9:11 @ If ever he should go beyond me, I shall not see him: if he should pass by me, neither thus have I known it.

bes@Job:9:16 @ And if I should call and he should (note:)Hebrews. and Alex. omit «not.’(:note) not hearken, I cannot believe that he has listened to my voice.

bes@Job:9:17 @ Let him not crush me with a dark storm: but he has made by bruises many without cause.

bes@Job:9:18 @ For he suffers me not to take breath, but he has filled me with bitterness.

bes@Job:9:21 @ For even if I have sinned, I know it not in my soul: but my life is taken away.

bes@Job:9:24 @ For they are delivered into the hands of the unrighteous man: he covers the faces of the judges of the earth: but if it be not he, who is it?

bes@Job:9:25 @ But my life is swifter than a post: my days (note:)i. e., insensibly(:note) have fled away, and they knew it not.

bes@Job:9:26 @ Or again, is there a trace of their path left by ships? or is there one of the flying eagle as it seeks its prey?

bes@Job:9:32 @ For thou art not man like me, with whom I could contend, that we might come together to judgement.

bes@Job:10:1 @ Weary in my soul, I will pour my words with groans upon (note:)Alex. myself(:note) him: I will speak being straitened in the bitterness of my soul.

bes@Job:10:3 @ Is it good before thee if I be unrighteous? for thou hast disowned the work of thy hands, and attended to the counsel of the ungodly.

bes@Job:10:6 @ that thou hast enquired into mine iniquity, and searched out my sins?

bes@Job:10:7 @ For thou knowest that I have not committed iniquity: but who is he that can deliver out of thy hands?

bes@Job:10:8 @ Thy hands have formed me and made me; afterwards thou didst change thy mind, and smite me.

bes@Job:10:11 @ And thou didst clothe me with skin and flesh, and frame me with bones and sinews.

bes@Job:10:12 @ And thou didst bestow upon me life and mercy, and thy oversight has preserved my (note:)Or, life(:note) spirit.

bes@Job:10:13 @ Having these things in thyself, I know that thou canst do all things; for nothing is impossible with thee.

bes@Jdt:4:10 @ Both they, and their wives and their children, and their cattle, and every stranger and hireling, and their servants bought with money, put sackcloth upon their loins.

bes@Jdt:4:11 @ Thus every man and women, and the little children, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, fell before the temple, and cast ashes upon their heads, and spread out their sackcloth before the face of the Lord: also they put sackcloth about the altar,

bes@Jdt:4:12 @ And cried to the God of Israel all with one consent earnestly, that he would not give their children for a prey, and their wives for a spoil, and the cities of their inheritance to destruction, and the sanctuary to profanation and reproach, and for the nations to rejoice at.

bes@Jdt:4:14 @ And Joacim the high priest, and all the priests that stood before the Lord, and they which ministered unto the Lord, had their loins girt with sackcloth, and offered the daily burnt offerings, with the vows and free gifts of the people,

bes@Jdt:4:15 @ And had ashes on their mitres, and cried unto the Lord with all their power, that he would look upon all the house of Israel graciously.

bes@Jdt:5:1 @ Then was it declared to Holofernes, the chief captain of the army of Assur, that the children of Israel had prepared for war, and had shut up the passages of the hill country, and had fortified all the tops of the high hills and had laid impediments in the champaign countries:

bes@Jdt:5:2 @ Wherewith he was very angry, and called all the princes of Moab, and the captains of Ammon, and all the governors of the sea coast,

bes@Jdt:5:3 @ And he said unto them, Tell me now, ye sons of Chanaan, who this people is, that dwelleth in the hill country, and what are the cities that they inhabit, and what is the multitude of their army, and wherein is their power and strength, and what king is set over them, or captain of their army;

bes@Jdt:5:4 @ And why have they determined not to come and meet me, more than all the inhabitants of the west.

bes@Jdt:5:5 @ Then said Achior, the captain of all the sons of Ammon, Let my lord now hear a word from the mouth of thy servant, and I will declare unto thee the truth concerning this people, which dwelleth near thee, and inhabiteth the hill countries: and there shall no lie come out of the mouth of thy servant.

bes@Jdt:5:9 @ Then their God commanded them to depart from the place where they sojourned, and to go into the land of Chanaan: where they dwelt, and were increased with gold and silver, and with very much cattle.

bes@Jdt:5:10 @ But when a famine covered all the land of Chanaan, they went down into Egypt, and sojourned there, while they were nourished, and became there a great multitude, so that one could not number their nation.

bes@Jdt:5:11 @ Therefore the king of Egypt rose up against them, and dealt subtilly with them, and brought them low with labouring in brick, and made them slaves.

bes@Jdt:5:12 @ Then they cried unto their God, and he smote all the land of Egypt with incurable plagues: so the Egyptians cast them out of their sight.

bes@Jdt:5:15 @ So they dwelt in the land of the Amorites, and they destroyed by their strength all them of Esebon, and passing over Jordan they possessed all the hill country.

bes@Jdt:5:16 @ And they cast forth before them the Chanaanite, the Pherezite, the Jebusite, and the Sychemite, and all the Gergesites, and they dwelt in that country many days.

bes@Jdt:5:17 @ And whilst they sinned not before their God, they prospered, because the God that hateth iniquity was with them.

bes@Jdt:5:18 @ But when they departed from the way which he appointed them, they were destroyed in many battles very sore, and were led captives into a land that was not their’s, and the temple of their God was cast to the ground, and their cities were taken by the enemies.

bes@Jdt:5:19 @ But now are they returned to their God, and are come up from the places where they were scattered, and have possessed Jerusalem, where their sanctuary is, and are seated in the hill country; for it was desolate.

bes@Jdt:5:21 @ But if there be no iniquity in their nation, let my lord now pass by, lest their Lord defend them, and their God be for them, and we become a reproach before all the world.

bes@Jdt:5:23 @ For, say they, we will not be afraid of the face of the children of Israel: for, lo, it is a people that have no strength nor power for a strong battle

bes@Jdt:6:1 @ And when the tumult of men that were about the council was ceased, Holofernes the chief captain of the army of Assur said unto Achior and all the Moabites before all the company of other nations,

bes@Jdt:6:2 @ And who art thou, Achior, and the hirelings of Ephraim, that thou hast prophesied against us as to day, and hast said, that we should not make war with the people of Israel, because their God will defend them? and who is God but Nabuchodonosor?

bes@Jdt:6:4 @ For with them we will tread them under foot, and their mountains shall be drunken with their blood, and their fields shall be filled with their dead bodies, and their footsteps shall not be able to stand before us, for they shall utterly perish, saith king Nabuchodonosor, lord of all the earth: for he said, None of my words shall be in vain.

bes@Jdt:6:5 @ And thou, Achior, an hireling of Ammon, which hast spoken these words in the day of thine iniquity, shalt see my face no more from this day, until I take vengeance of this nation that came out of Egypt.

bes@Jdt:6:6 @ And then shall the sword of mine army, and the multitude of them that serve me, pass through thy sides, and thou shalt fall among their slain, when I return.

bes@Jdt:6:7 @ Now therefore my servants shall bring thee back into the hill country, and shall set thee in one of the cities of the passages:

bes@Jdt:6:8 @ And thou shalt not perish, till thou be destroyed with them.

bes@Jdt:6:9 @ And if thou persuade thyself in thy mind that they shall be taken, let not thy countenance fall: I have spoken it, and none of my words shall be in vain.

bes@Jdt:6:10 @ Then Holofernes commanded his servants, that waited in his tent, to take Achior, and bring him to Bethulia, and deliver him into the hands of the children of Israel.

bes@Jdt:6:12 @ And when the men of the city saw them, they took up their weapons, and went out of the city to the top of the hill: and every man that used a sling kept them from coming up by casting of stones against them.

bes@Jdt:6:14 @ But the Israelites descended from their city, and came unto him, and loosed him, and brought him to Bethulia, and presented him to the governors of the city:

bes@Jdt:6:16 @ And they called together all the ancients of the city, and all their youth ran together, and their women, to the assembly, and they set Achior in the midst of all their people. Then Ozias asked him of that which was done.

bes@Jdt:6:19 @ O Lord God of heaven, behold their pride, and pity the low estate of our nation, and look upon the face of those that are sanctified unto thee this day.

bes@Jdt:7:2 @ Then their strong men removed their camps in that day, and the army of the men of war was an hundred and seventy thousand footmen, and twelve thousand horsemen, beside the baggage, and other men that were afoot among them, a very great multitude.

bes@Jdt:7:4 @ Now the children of Israel, when they saw the multitude of them, were greatly troubled, and said every one to his neighbour, Now will these men lick up the face of the earth; for neither the high mountains, nor the valleys, nor the hills, are able to bear their weight.

bes@Jdt:7:7 @ And viewed the passages up to the city, and came to the fountains of their waters, and took them, and set garrisons of men of war over them, and he himself removed toward his people.

bes@Jdt:7:10 @ For this people of the children of Israel do not trust in their spears, but in the height of the mountains wherein they dwell, because it is not easy to come up to the tops of their mountains.

bes@Jdt:7:13 @ For all the inhabitants of Bethulia have their water thence; so shall thirst kill them, and they shall give up their city, and we and our people shall go up to the tops of the mountains that are near, and will camp upon them, to watch that none go out of the city.

bes@Jdt:7:14 @ So they and their wives and their children shall be consumed with fire, and before the sword come against them, they shall be overthrown in the streets where they dwell.

bes@Jdt:7:17 @ So the camp of the children of Ammon departed, and with them five thousand of the Assyrians, and they pitched in the valley, and took the waters, and the fountains of the waters of the children of Israel.

bes@Jdt:7:18 @ Then the children of Esau went up with the children of Ammon, and camped in the hill country over against Dothaim: and they sent some of them toward the south, and toward the east over against Ekrebel, which is near unto Chusi, that is upon the brook Mochmur; and the rest of the army of the Assyrians camped in the plain, and covered the face of the whole land; and their tents and carriages were pitched to a very great multitude.

bes@Jdt:7:20 @ Thus all the company of Assur remained about them, both their footmen, chariots, and horsemen, four and thirty days, so that all their vessels of water failed all the inhibitants of Bethulia.

bes@Jdt:7:22 @ Therefore their young children were out of heart, and their women and young men fainted for thirst, and fell down in the streets of the city, and by the passages of the gates, and there was no longer any strength in them.

bes@Jdt:7:23 @ Then all the people assembled to Ozias, and to the chief of the city, both young men, and women, and children, and cried with a loud voice, and said before all the elders,

bes@Jdt:7:25 @ For now we have no helper: but God hath sold us into their hands, that we should be thrown down before them with thirst and great destruction.

bes@Jdt:7:26 @ Now therefore call them unto you, and deliver the whole city for a spoil to the people of Holofernes, and to all his army.

bes@Jdt:7:27 @ For it is better for us to be made a spoil unto them, than to die for thirst: for we will be his servants, that our souls may live, and not see the death of our infants before our eyes, nor our wives nor our children to die.

bes@Jdt:7:28 @ We take to witness against you the heaven and the earth, and our God and Lord of our fathers, which punisheth us according to our sins and the sins of our fathers, that he do not according as we have said this day.

bes@Jdt:7:29 @ Then there was great weeping with one consent in the midst of the assembly; and they cried unto the Lord God with a loud voice.

bes@Jdt:7:32 @ And he dispersed the people, every one to their own charge; and they went unto the walls and towers of their city, and sent the women and children into their houses: and they were very low brought in the city.

bes@Jdt:8:1 @ Now at that time Judith heard thereof, which was the daughter of Merari, the son of Ox, the son of Joseph, the son of Ozel, the son of Elcia, the son of Ananias, the son of Gedeon, the son of Raphaim, the son of Acitho, the son of Eliu, the son of Eliab, the son of Nathanael, the son of Samael, the son of Salasadal, the son of Israel.

bes@Jdt:8:3 @ For as he stood overseeing them that bound sheaves in the field, the heat came upon his head, and he fell on his bed, and died in the city of Bethulia: and they buried him with his fathers in the field between Dothaim and Balamo.

bes@Jdt:8:4 @ So Judith was a widow in her house three years and four months.

bes@Jdt:8:9 @ Now when she heard the evil words of the people against the governor, that they fainted for lack of water; for Judith had heard all the words that Ozias had spoken unto them, and that he had sworn to deliver the city unto the Assyrians after five days;

bes@Jdt:8:10 @ Then she sent her waitingwoman, that had the government of all things that she had, to call Ozias and Chabris and Charmis, the ancients of the city.

bes@Jdt:8:11 @ And they came unto her, and she said unto them, Hear me now, O ye governors of the inhabitants of Bethulia: for your words that ye have spoken before the people this day are not right, touching this oath which ye made and pronounced between God and you, and have promised to deliver the city to our enemies, unless within these days the Lord turn to help you.

bes@Jdt:8:14 @ For ye cannot find the depth of the heart of man, neither can ye perceive the things that he thinketh: then how can ye search out God, that hath made all these things, and know his mind, or comprehend his purpose? Nay, my brethren, provoke not the Lord our God to anger.

bes@Jdt:8:15 @ For if he will not help us within these five days, he hath power to defend us when he will, even every day, or to destroy us before our enemies.

bes@Jdt:8:16 @ Do not bind the counsels of the Lord our God: for God is not as man, that he may be threatened; neither is he as the son of man, that he should be wavering.

bes@Jdt:8:17 @ Therefore let us wait for salvation of him, and call upon him to help us, and he will hear our voice, if it please him.

bes@Jdt:8:18 @ For there arose none in our age, neither is there any now in these days neither tribe, nor family, nor people, nor city among us, which worship gods made with hands, as hath been aforetime.

bes@Jdt:8:22 @ And the slaughter of our brethren, and the captivity of the country, and the desolation of our inheritance, will he turn upon our heads among the Gentiles, wheresoever we shall be in bondage; and we shall be an offence and a reproach to all them that possess us.

bes@Jdt:8:23 @ For our servitude shall not be directed to favour: but the Lord our God shall turn it to dishonour.

bes@Jdt:8:27 @ For he hath not tried us in the fire, as he did them, for the examination of their hearts, neither hath he taken vengeance on us: but the Lord doth scourge them that come near unto him, to admonish them.

bes@Jdt:8:28 @ Then said Ozias to her, All that thou hast spoken hast thou spoken with a good heart, and there is none that may gainsay thy words.

bes@Jdt:8:29 @ For this is not the first day wherein thy wisdom is manifested; but from the beginning of thy days all the people have known thy understanding, because the disposition of thine heart is good.

bes@Jdt:8:32 @ Then said Judith unto them, Hear me, and I will do a thing, which shall go throughout all generations to the children of our nation.

bes@Jdt:8:33 @ Ye shall stand this night in the gate, and I will go forth with my waitingwoman: and within the days that ye have promised to deliver the city to our enemies the Lord will visit Israel by mine hand.

bes@Jdt:8:34 @ But enquire not ye of mine act: for I will not declare it unto you, till the things be finished that I do.

bes@Jdt:9:1 @ Judith fell upon her face, and put ashes upon her head, and uncovered the sackcloth wherewith she was clothed; and about the time that the incense of that evening was offered in Jerusalem in the house of the Lord Judith cried with a loud voice, and said,

bes@Jdt:9:2 @ O Lord God of my father Simeon, to whom thou gavest a sword to take vengeance of the strangers, who loosened the girdle of a maid to defile her, and discovered the thigh to her shame, and polluted her virginity to her reproach; for thou saidst, It shall not be so; and yet they did so:

bes@Jdt:9:3 @ Wherefore thou gavest their rulers to be slain, so that they dyed their bed in blood, being deceived, and smotest the servants with their lords, and the lords upon their thrones;

bes@Jdt:9:4 @ And hast given their wives for a prey, and their daughters to be captives, and all their spoils to be divided among thy dear children; which were moved with thy zeal, and abhorred the pollution of their blood, and called upon thee for aid: O God, O my God, hear me also a widow.

bes@Jdt:9:7 @ For, behold, the Assyrians are multiplied in their power; they are exalted with horse and man; they glory in the strength of their footmen; they trust in shield, and spear, and bow, and sling; and know not that thou art the Lord that breakest the battles: the Lord is thy name.

bes@Jdt:9:8 @ Throw down their strength in thy power, and bring down their force in thy wrath: for they have purposed to defile thy sanctuary, and to pollute the tabernacle where thy glorious name resteth and to cast down with sword the horn of thy altar.

bes@Jdt:9:10 @ Smite by the deceit of my lips the servant with the prince, and the prince with the servant: break down their stateliness by the hand of a woman.

bes@Jdt:9:11 @ For thy power standeth not in multitude nor thy might in strong men: for thou art a God of the afflicted, an helper of the oppressed, an upholder of the weak, a protector of the forlorn, a saviour of them that are without hope.

bes@Jdt:9:12 @ I pray thee, I pray thee, O God of my father, and God of the inheritance of Israel, Lord of the heavens and earth, Creator of the waters, king of every creature, hear thou my prayer:

bes@Jdt:9:13 @ And make my speech and deceit to be their wound and stripe, who have purposed cruel things against thy covenant, and thy hallowed house, and against the top of Sion, and against the house of the possession of thy children.

bes@Jdt:10:3 @ And pulled off the sackcloth which she had on, and put off the garments of her widowhood, and washed her body all over with water, and anointed herself with precious ointment, and braided the hair of her head, and put on a tire upon it, and put on her garments of gladness, wherewith she was clad during the life of Manasses her husband.

bes@Jdt:10:5 @ Then she gave her maid a bottle of wine, and a cruse of oil, and filled a bag with parched corn, and lumps of figs, and with fine bread; so she folded all these things together, and laid them upon her.

bes@Jdt:10:6 @ Thus they went forth to the gate of the city of Bethulia, and found standing there Ozias and the ancients of the city, Chabris and Charmis.

bes@Jdt:10:9 @ And she said unto them, Command the gates of the city to be opened unto me, that I may go forth to accomplish the things whereof ye have spoken with me. So they commanded the young men to open unto her, as she had spoken.

bes@Jdt:10:10 @ And when they had done so, Judith went out, she, and her maid with her; and the men of the city looked after her, until she was gone down the mountain, and till she had passed the valley, and could see her no more.

bes@Jdt:10:12 @ And took her, and asked her, Of what people art thou? and whence comest thou? and whither goest thou? And she said, I am a woman of the Hebrews, and am fled from them: for they shall be given you to be consumed:

bes@Jdt:10:13 @ And I am coming before Holofernes the chief captain of your army, to declare words of truth; and I will shew him a way, whereby he shall go, and win all the hill country, without losing the body or life of any one of his men.

bes@Jdt:10:18 @ Then was there a concourse throughout all the camp: for her coming was noised among the tents, and they came about her, as she stood without the tent of Holofernes, till they told him of her.

bes@Jdt:10:19 @ And they wondered at her beauty, and admired the children of Israel because of her, and every one said to his neighbour, Who would despise this people, that have among them such women? surely it is not good that one man of them be left who being let go might deceive the whole earth.

bes@Jdt:10:21 @ Now Holofernes rested upon his bed under a canopy, which was woven with purple, and gold, and emeralds, and precious stones.

bes@Jdt:10:22 @ So they shewed him of her; and he came out before his tent with silver lamps going before him.

bes@Jdt:10:23 @ And when Judith was come before him and his servants they all marvelled at the beauty of her countenance; and she fell down upon her face, and did reverence unto him: and his servants took her up.

bes@Jdt:11:5 @ Then Judith said unto him, Receive the words of thy servant, and suffer thine handmaid to speak in thy presence, and I will declare no lie to my lord this night.

bes@Jdt:11:8 @ For we have heard of thy wisdom and thy policies, and it is reported in all the earth, that thou only art excellent in all the kingdom, and mighty in knowledge, and wonderful in feats of war.

bes@Jdt:11:10 @ Therefore, O lord and governor, reject not his word; but lay it up in thine heart, for it is true: for our nation shall not be punished, neither can sword prevail against them, except they sin against their God.

bes@Jdt:11:11 @ And now, that my lord be not defeated and frustrate of his purpose, even death is now fallen upon them, and their sin hath overtaken them, wherewith they will provoke their God to anger whensoever they shall do that which is not fit to be done:

bes@Jdt:11:13 @ And are resolved to spend the firstfruits of the the tenths of wine and oil, which they had sanctified, and reserved for the priests that serve in Jerusalem before the face of our God; the which things it is not lawful for any of the people so much as to touch with their hands.

bes@Jdt:11:15 @ Now when they shall bring them word, they will forthwith do it, and they shall be given to thee to be destroyed the same day.

bes@Jdt:11:16 @ Wherefore I thine handmaid, knowing all this, am fled from their presence; and God hath sent me to work things with thee, whereat all the earth shall be astonished, and whosoever shall hear it.

bes@Jdt:11:17 @ For thy servant is religious, and serveth the God of heaven day and night: now therefore, my lord, I will remain with thee, and thy servant will go out by night into the valley, and I will pray unto God, and he will tell me when they have committed their sins:

bes@Jdt:11:18 @ And I will come and shew it unto thee: then thou shalt go forth with all thine army, and there shall be none of them that shall resist thee.

bes@Jdt:11:23 @ And now thou art both beautiful in thy countenance, and witty in thy words: surely if thou do as thou hast spoken thy God shall be my God, and thou shalt dwell in the house of king Nabuchodonosor, and shalt be renowned through the whole earth.

bes@Jdt:12:2 @ And Judith said, I will not eat thereof, lest there be an offence: but provision shall be made for me of the things that I have brought.

bes@Jdt:12:3 @ Then Holofernes said unto her, If thy provision should fail, how should we give thee the like? for there be none with us of thy nation.

bes@Jdt:12:4 @ Then said Judith unto him As thy soul liveth, my lord, thine handmaid shall not spend those things that I have, before the Lord work by mine hand the things that he hath determined.

bes@Jdt:12:5 @ Then the servants of Holofernes brought her into the tent, and she slept till midnight, and she arose when it was toward the morning watch,

bes@Jdt:12:11 @ Then said he to Bagoas the eunuch, who had charge over all that he had, Go now, and persuade this Hebrew woman which is with thee, that she come unto us, and eat and drink with us.

bes@Jdt:12:12 @ For, lo, it will be a shame for our person, if we shall let such a woman go, not having had her company; for if we draw her not unto us, she will laugh us to scorn.

bes@Jdt:12:13 @ Then went Bagoas from the presence of Holofernes, and came to her, and he said, Let not this fair damsel fear to come to my lord, and to be honoured in his presence, and drink wine, and be merry with us and be made this day as one of the daughters of the Assyrians, which serve in the house of Nabuchodonosor.

bes@Jdt:12:14 @ Then said Judith unto him, Who am I now, that I should gainsay my lord? surely whatsoever pleaseth him I will do speedily, and it shall be my joy unto the day of my death.

bes@Jdt:12:15 @ So she arose, and decked herself with her apparel and all her woman’s attire, and her maid went and laid soft skins on the ground for her over against Holofernes, which she had received of Bagoas for her daily use, that she might sit and eat upon them.

bes@Jdt:12:16 @ Now when Judith came in and sat down, Holofernes his heart was ravished with her, and his mind was moved, and he desired greatly her company; for he waited a time to deceive her, from the day that he had seen her.

bes@Jdt:12:17 @ Then said Holofernes unto her, Drink now, and be merry with us.

bes@Jdt:12:18 @ So Judith said, I will drink now, my lord, because my life is magnified in me this day more than all the days since I was born.

bes@Jdt:13:1 @ Now when the evening was come, his servants made haste to depart, and Bagoas shut his tent without, and dismissed the waiters from the presence of his lord; and they went to their beds: for they were all weary, because the feast had been long.

bes@Jdt:13:2 @ And Judith was left along in the tent, and Holofernes lying along upon his bed: for he was filled with wine.

bes@Jdt:13:3 @ Now Judith had commanded her maid to stand without her bedchamber, and to wait for her. coming forth, as she did daily: for she said she would go forth to her prayers, and she spake to Bagoas according to the same purpose.

bes@Jdt:13:4 @ So all went forth and none was left in the bedchamber, neither little nor great. Then Judith, standing by his bed, said in her heart, O Lord God of all power, look at this present upon the works of mine hands for the exaltation of Jerusalem.

bes@Jdt:13:5 @ For now is the time to help thine inheritance, and to execute thine enterprizes to the destruction of the enemies which are risen against us.

bes@Jdt:13:8 @ And she smote twice upon his neck with all her might, and she took away his head from him.

bes@Jdt:13:10 @ And she put it in her bag of meat: so they twain went together according to their custom unto prayer: and when they passed the camp, they compassed the valley, and went up the mountain of Bethulia, and came to the gates thereof.

bes@Jdt:13:11 @ Then said Judith afar off, to the watchmen at the gate, Open, open now the gate: God, even our God, is with us, to shew his power yet in Jerusalem, and his forces against the enemy, as he hath even done this day.

bes@Jdt:13:12 @ Now when the men of her city heard her voice, they made haste to go down to the gate of their city, and they called the elders of the city.

bes@Jdt:13:13 @ And then they ran all together, both small and great, for it was strange unto them that she was come: so they opened the gate, and received them, and made a fire for a light, and stood round about them.

bes@Jdt:13:14 @ Then she said to them with a loud voice, Praise, praise God, praise God, I say, for he hath not taken away his mercy from the house of Israel, but hath destroyed our enemies by mine hands this night.

bes@Jdt:13:15 @ So she took the head out of the bag, and shewed it, and said unto them, behold the head of Holofernes, the chief captain of the army of Assur, and behold the canopy, wherein he did lie in his drunkenness; and the Lord hath smitten him by the hand of a woman.

bes@Jdt:13:16 @ As the Lord liveth, who hath kept me in my way that I went, my countenance hath deceived him to his destruction, and yet hath he not committed sin with me, to defile and shame me.

bes@Jdt:13:17 @ Then all the people were wonderfully astonished, and bowed themselves and worshipped God, and said with one accord, Blessed be thou, O our God, which hast this day brought to nought the enemies of thy people.

bes@Jdt:13:20 @ And God turn these things to thee for a perpetual praise, to visit thee in good things because thou hast not spared thy life for the affliction of our nation, but hast revenged our ruin, walking a straight way before our God. And all the people said; So be it, so be it.

bes@Jdt:14:1 @ Then said Judith unto them, Hear me now, my brethren, and take this head, and hang it upon the highest place of your walls.

bes@Jdt:14:2 @ And so soon as the morning shall appear, and the sun shall come forth upon the earth, take ye every one his weapons, and go forth every valiant man out of the city, and set ye a captain over them, as though ye would go down into the field toward the watch of the Assyrians; but go not down.

bes@Jdt:14:4 @ So ye, and all that inhabit the coast of Israel, shall pursue them, and overthrow them as they go.

bes@Jdt:14:5 @ But before ye do these things, call me Achior the Ammonite, that he may see and know him that despised the house of Israel, and that sent him to us as it were to his death.

bes@Jdt:14:6 @ Then they called Achior out of the house of Ozias; and when he was come, and saw the head of Holofernes in a man’s hand in the assembly of the people, he fell down on his face, and his spirit failed.

bes@Jdt:14:7 @ But when they had recovered him, he fell at Judith’s feet, and reverenced her, and said, Blessed art thou in all the tabernacles of Juda, and in all nations, which hearing thy name shall be astonished.

bes@Jdt:14:8 @ Now therefore tell me all the things that thou hast done in these days. Then Judith declared unto him in the midst of the people all that she had done, from the day that she went forth until that hour she spake unto them.

bes@Jdt:14:9 @ And when she had left off speaking, the people shouted with a loud voice, and made a joyful noise in their city.

bes@Jdt:14:11 @ And as soon as the morning arose, they hanged the head of Holofernes upon the wall, and every man took his weapons, and they went forth by bands unto the straits of the mountain.

bes@Jdt:14:14 @ Then went in Bagoas, and knocked at the door of the tent; for he thought that he had slept with Judith.

bes@Jdt:14:15 @ But because none answered, he opened it, and went into the bedchamber, and found him cast upon the floor dead, and his head was taken from him.

bes@Jdt:14:16 @ Therefore he cried with a loud voice, with weeping, and sighing, and a mighty cry, and rent his garments.

bes@Jdt:14:17 @ After he went into the tent where Judith lodged: and when he found her not, he leaped out to the people, and cried,

bes@Jdt:14:18 @ These slaves have dealt treacherously; one woman of the Hebrews hath brought shame upon the house of king Nabuchodonosor: for, behold, Holofernes lieth upon the ground without a head.

bes@Jdt:15:5 @ Now when the children of Israel heard it, they all fell upon them with one consent, and slew them unto Chobai: likewise also they that came from Jerusalem, and from all the hill country, (for men had told them what things were done in the camp of their enemies) and they that were in Galaad, and in Galilee, chased them with a great slaughter, until they were past Damascus and the borders thereof.

bes@Jdt:15:7 @ And the children of Israel that returned from the slaughter had that which remained; and the villages and the cities, that were in the mountains and in the plain, gat many spoils: for the multitude was very great.

bes@Jdt:15:8 @ Then Joacim the high priest, and the ancients of the children of Israel that dwelt in Jerusalem, came to behold the good things that God had shewed to Israel, and to see Judith, and to salute her.

bes@Jdt:15:9 @ And when they came unto her, they blessed her with one accord, and said unto her, Thou art the exaltation of Jerusalem, thou art the great glory of Israel, thou art the great rejoicing of our nation:

bes@Jdt:15:10 @ Thou hast done all these things by thine hand: thou hast done much good to Israel, and God is pleased therewith: blessed be thou of the Almighty Lord for evermore. And all the people said, So be it.

bes@Jdt:15:11 @ And the people spoiled the camp the space of thirty days: and they gave unto Judith Holofernes his tent, and all his plate, and beds, and vessels, and all his stuff: and she took it and laid it on her mule; and made ready her carts, and laid them thereon.

bes@Jdt:15:12 @ Then all the women of Israel ran together to see her, and blessed her, and made a dance among them for her: and she took branches in her hand, and gave also to the women that were with her.

bes@Jdt:15:13 @ And they put a garland of olive upon her and her maid that was with her, and she went before all the people in the dance, leading all the women: and all the men of Israel followed in their armour with garlands, and with songs in their mouths.

bes@Jdt:16:1 @ Then Judith began to sing this thanksgiving in all Israel, and all the people sang after her this song of praise.

bes@Jdt:16:2 @ And Judith said, Begin unto my God with timbrels, sing unto my Lord with cymbals: tune unto him a new psalm: exalt him, and call upon his name.

bes@Jdt:16:4 @ Assur came out of the mountains from the north, he came with ten thousands of his army, the multitude whereof stopped the torrents, and their horsemen have covered the hills.

bes@Jdt:16:5 @ He bragged that he would burn up my borders, and kill my young men with the sword, and dash the sucking children against the ground, and make mine infants as a prey, and my virgins as a spoil.

bes@Jdt:16:7 @ For the mighty one did not fall by the young men, neither did the sons of the Titans smite him, nor high giants set upon him: but Judith the daughter of Merari weakened him with the beauty of her countenance.

bes@Jdt:16:8 @ For she put off the garment of her widowhood for the exaltation of those that were oppressed in Israel, and anointed her face with ointment, and bound her hair in a tire, and took a linen garment to deceive him.

bes@Jdt:16:14 @ Let all creatures serve thee: for thou spakest, and they were made, thou didst send forth thy spirit, and it created them, and there is none that can resist thy voice.

bes@Jdt:16:15 @ For the mountains shall be moved from their foundations with the waters, the rocks shall melt as wax at thy presence: yet thou art merciful to them that fear thee.

bes@Jdt:16:16 @ For all sacrifice is too little for a sweet savour unto thee, and all the fat is not sufficient for thy burnt offering: but he that feareth the Lord is great at all times.

bes@Jdt:16:19 @ Judith also dedicated all the stuff of Holofernes, which the people had given her, and gave the canopy, which she had taken out of his bedchamber, for a gift unto the Lord.

bes@Jdt:16:20 @ So the people continued feasting in Jerusalem before the sanctuary for the space of three months and Judith remained with them.

bes@Jdt:16:21 @ After this time every one returned to his own inheritance, and Judith went to Bethulia, and remained in her own possession, and was in her time honourable in all the country.

bes@Jdt:16:25 @ And there was none that made the children of Israel any more afraid in the days of Judith, nor a long time after her death.

bes@Wis:1:1 @ Love righteousness, ye that be judges of the earth: think of the Lord with a good (heart,) and in simplicity of heart seek him.

bes@Wis:1:3 @ For froward thoughts separate from God: and his power, when it is tried, reproveth the unwise.

bes@Wis:1:5 @ For the holy spirit of discipline will flee deceit, and remove from thoughts that are without understanding, and will not abide when unrighteousness cometh in.

bes@Wis:1:6 @ For wisdom is a loving spirit; and will not acquit a blasphemer of his words: for God is witness of his reins, and a true beholder of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue.

bes@Wis:1:7 @ For the Spirit of the Lord filleth the world: and that which containeth all things hath knowledge of the voice.

bes@Wis:1:8 @ Therefore he that speaketh unrighteous things cannot be hid: neither shall vengeance, when it punisheth, pass by him.

bes@Wis:1:9 @ For inquisition shall be made into the counsels of the ungodly: and the sound of his words shall come unto the Lord for the manifestation of his wicked deeds.

bes@Wis:1:11 @ Therefore beware of murmuring, which is unprofitable; and refrain your tongue from backbiting: for there is no word so secret, that shall go for nought: and the mouth that belieth slayeth the soul.

bes@Wis:1:12 @ Seek not death in the error of your life: and pull not upon yourselves destruction with the works of your hands.

bes@Wis:1:13 @ For God made not death: neither hath he pleasure in the destruction of the living.

bes@Wis:1:16 @ But ungodly men with their works and words called it to them: for when they thought to have it their friend, they consumed to nought, and made a covenant with it, because they are worthy to take part with it.

bes@Wis:2:1 @ For the ungodly said, reasoning with themselves, but not aright, Our life is short and tedious, and in the death of a man there is no remedy: neither was there any man known to have returned from the grave.

bes@Wis:2:2 @ For we are born at all adventure: and we shall be hereafter as though we had never been: for the breath in our nostrils is as smoke, and a little spark in the moving of our heart:

bes@Wis:2:3 @ Which being extinguished, our body shall be turned into ashes, and our spirit shall vanish as the soft air,

bes@Wis:2:4 @ And our name shall be forgotten in time, and no man shall have our works in remembrance, and our life shall pass away as the trace of a cloud, and shall be dispersed as a mist, that is driven away with the beams of the sun, and overcome with the heat thereof.

bes@Wis:2:5 @ For our time is a very shadow that passeth away; and after our end there is no returning: for it is fast sealed, so that no man cometh again.

bes@Wis:2:7 @ Let us fill ourselves with costly wine and ointments: and let no flower of the spring pass by us:

bes@Wis:2:8 @ Let us crown ourselves with rosebuds, before they be withered:

bes@Wis:2:9 @ Let none of us go without his part of our voluptuousness: let us leave tokens of our joyfulness in every place: for this is our portion, and our lot is this.

bes@Wis:2:12 @ Therefore let us lie in wait for the righteous; because he is not for our turn, and he is clean contrary to our doings: he upbraideth us with our offending the law, and objecteth to our infamy the transgressings of our education.

bes@Wis:2:16 @ We are esteemed of him as counterfeits: he abstaineth from our ways as from filthiness: he pronounceth the end of the just to be blessed, and maketh his boast that God is his father.

bes@Wis:2:19 @ Let us examine him with despitefulness and torture, that we may know his meekness, and prove his patience.

bes@Wis:2:20 @ Let us condemn him with a shameful death: for by his own saying he shall be respected.

bes@Wis:2:22 @ As for the mysteries of God, they knew them not: neither hoped they for the wages of righteousness, nor discerned a reward for blameless souls.

bes@Wis:2:23 @ For God created man to be immortal, and made him to be an image of his own eternity.

bes@Wis:2:24 @ Nevertheless through envy of the devil came death into the world: and they that do hold of his side do find it.

bes@Wis:3:4 @ For though they be punished in the sight of men, yet is their hope full of immortality.

bes@Wis:3:5 @ And having been a little chastised, they shall be greatly rewarded: for God proved them, and found them worthy for himself.

bes@Wis:3:7 @ And in the time of their visitation they shall shine, and run to and fro like sparks among the stubble.

bes@Wis:3:9 @ They that put their trust in him shall understand the truth: and such as be faithful in love shall abide with him: for grace and mercy is to his saints, and he hath care for his elect.

bes@Wis:3:11 @ For whoso despiseth wisdom and nurture, he is miserable, and their hope is vain, their labours unfruitful, and their works unprofitable:

bes@Wis:3:13 @ Their offspring is cursed. Wherefore blessed is the barren that is undefiled, which hath not known the sinful bed: she shall have fruit in the visitation of souls.

bes@Wis:3:14 @ And blessed is the eunuch, which with his hands hath wrought no iniquity, nor imagined wicked things against God: for unto him shall be given the special gift of faith, and an inheritance in the temple of the Lord more acceptable to his mind.

bes@Wis:3:15 @ For glorious is the fruit of good labours: and the root of wisdom shall never fall away.

bes@Wis:3:17 @ For though they live long, yet shall they be nothing regarded: and their last age shall be without honour.

bes@Wis:3:18 @ Or, if they die quickly, they have no hope, neither comfort in the day of trial.

bes@Wis:4:1 @ Better it is to have no children, and to have virtue: for the memorial thereof is immortal: because it is known with God, and with men.

bes@Wis:4:2 @ When it is present, men take example at it; and when it is gone, they desire it: it weareth a crown, and triumpheth for ever, having gotten the victory, striving for undefiled rewards.

bes@Wis:4:4 @ For though they flourish in branches for a time; yet standing not last, they shall be shaken with the wind, and through the force of winds they shall be rooted out.

bes@Wis:4:5 @ The imperfect branches shall be broken off, their fruit unprofitable, not ripe to eat, yea, meet for nothing.

bes@Wis:4:6 @ For children begotten of unlawful beds are witnesses of wickedness against their parents in their trial.

bes@Wis:4:7 @ But though the righteous be prevented with death, yet shall he be in rest.

bes@Wis:4:11 @ Yea speedily was he taken away, lest that wickedness should alter his understanding, or deceit beguile his soul.

bes@Wis:4:12 @ For the bewitching of naughtiness doth obscure things that are honest; and the wandering of concupiscence doth undermine the simple mind.

bes@Wis:4:15 @ This the people saw, and understood it not, neither laid they up this in their minds, That his grace and mercy is with his saints, and that he hath respect unto his chosen.

bes@Wis:4:20 @ And when they cast up the accounts of their sins, they shall come with fear: and their own iniquities shall convince them to their face.

bes@Wis:5:2 @ When they see it, they shall be troubled with terrible fear, and shall be amazed at the strangeness of his salvation, so far beyond all that they looked for.

bes@Wis:5:3 @ And they repenting and groaning for anguish of spirit shall say within themselves, This was he, whom we had sometimes in derision, and a proverb of reproach:

bes@Wis:5:4 @ We fools accounted his life madness, and his end to be without honour:

bes@Wis:5:7 @ We wearied ourselves in the way of wickedness and destruction: yea, we have gone through deserts, where there lay no way: but as for the way of the Lord, we have not known it.

bes@Wis:5:8 @ What hath pride profited us? or what good hath riches with our vaunting brought us?

bes@Wis:5:10 @ And as a ship that passeth over the waves of the water, which when it is gone by, the trace thereof cannot be found, neither the pathway of the keel in the waves;

bes@Wis:5:11 @ Or as when a bird hath flown through the air, there is no token of her way to be found, but the light air being beaten with the stroke of her wings and parted with the violent noise and motion of them, is passed through, and therein afterwards no sign where she went is to be found;

bes@Wis:5:12 @ Or like as when an arrow is shot at a mark, it parteth the air, which immediately cometh together again, so that a man cannot know where it went through:

bes@Wis:5:14 @ For the hope of the ungodly is like dust that is blown away with the wind; like a thin froth that is driven away with the storm; like as the smoke which is dispersed here and there with a tempest, and passeth away as the remembrance of a guest that tarrieth but a day.

bes@Wis:5:15 @ But the righteous live for evermore; their reward also is with the Lord, and the care of them is with the most High.

bes@Wis:5:16 @ Therefore shall they receive a glorious kingdom, and a beautiful crown from the Lord’s hand: for with his right hand shall he cover them, and with his arm shall he protect them.

bes@Wis:5:20 @ His severe wrath shall he sharpen for a sword, and the world shall fight with him against the unwise.

bes@Wis:5:23 @ Yea, a mighty wind shall stand up against them, and like a storm shall blow them away: thus iniquity shall lay waste the whole earth, and ill dealing shall overthrow the thrones of the mighty.

bes@Wis:6:2 @ Give ear, ye that rule the people, and glory in the multitude of nations.

bes@Wis:6:7 @ For he which is Lord over all shall fear no man’s person, neither shall he stand in awe of any man’s greatness: for he hath made the small and great, and careth for all alike.

bes@Wis:6:14 @ Whoso seeketh her early shall have no great travail: for he shall find her sitting at his doors.

bes@Wis:6:15 @ To think therefore upon her is perfection of wisdom: and whoso watcheth for her shall quickly be without care.

bes@Wis:6:22 @ As for wisdom, what she is, and how she came up, I will tell you, and will not hide mysteries from you: but will seek her out from the beginning of her nativity, and bring the knowledge of her into light, and will not pass over the truth.

bes@Wis:6:23 @ Neither will I go with consuming envy; for such a man shall have no fellowship with wisdom.

bes@Wis:6:24 @ But the multitude of the wise is the welfare of the world: and a wise king is the upholding of the people.

bes@Wis:6:25 @ Receive therefore instruction through my words, and it shall do you good.

bes@Wis:7:2 @ And in my mother’s womb was fashioned to be flesh in the time of ten months, being compacted in blood, of the seed of man, and the pleasure that came with sleep.

bes@Wis:7:4 @ I was nursed in swaddling clothes, and that with cares.

bes@Wis:7:7 @ Wherefore I prayed, and understanding was given me: I called upon God, and the spirit of wisdom came to me.

bes@Wis:7:9 @ Neither compared I unto her any precious stone, because all gold in respect of her is as a little sand, and silver shall be counted as clay before her.

bes@Wis:7:11 @ All good things together came to me with her, and innumerable riches in her hands.

bes@Wis:7:15 @ God hath granted me to speak as I would, and to conceive as is meet for the things that are given me: because it is he that leadeth unto wisdom, and directeth the wise.

bes@Wis:7:19 @ The circuits of years, and the positions of stars:

bes@Wis:7:20 @ The natures of living creatures, and the furies of wild beasts: the violence of winds, and the reasonings of men: the diversities of plants and the virtues of roots:

bes@Wis:7:21 @ And all such things as are either secret or manifest, them I know.

bes@Wis:7:22 @ For wisdom, which is the worker of all things, taught me: for in her is an understanding spirit holy, one only, manifold, subtil, lively, clear, undefiled, plain, not subject to hurt, loving the thing that is good quick, which cannot be letted, ready to do good,

bes@Wis:7:23 @ Kind to man, steadfast, sure, free from care, having all power, overseeing all things, and going through all understanding, pure, and most subtil, spirits.

bes@Wis:7:28 @ For God loveth none but him that dwelleth with wisdom.

bes@Wis:7:29 @ For she is more beautiful than the sun, and above all the order of stars: being compared with the light, she is found before it.

bes@Wis:8:3 @ In that she is conversant with God, she magnifieth her nobility: yea, the Lord of all things himself loved her.

bes@Wis:8:7 @ And if a man love righteousness her labours are virtues: for she teacheth temperance and prudence, justice and fortitude: which are such things, as men can have nothing more profitable in their life.

bes@Wis:8:9 @ Therefore I purposed to take her to me to live with me, knowing that she would be a counsellor of good things, and a comfort in cares and grief.

bes@Wis:8:10 @ For her sake I shall have estimation among the multitude, and honour with the elders, though I be young.

bes@Wis:8:11 @ I shall be found of a quick conceit in judgement, and shall be admired in the sight of great men.

bes@Wis:8:13 @ Moreover by the means of her I shall obtain immortality, and leave behind me an everlasting memorial to them that come after me.

bes@Wis:8:15 @ Horrible tyrants shall be afraid, when they do but hear of me; I shall be found good among the multitude, and valiant in war.

bes@Wis:8:16 @ After I am come into mine house, I will repose myself with her: for her conversation hath no bitterness; and to live with her hath no sorrow, but mirth and joy.

bes@Wis:8:17 @ Now when I considered these things in myself, and pondered them in my heart, how that to be allied unto wisdom is immortality;

bes@Wis:8:18 @ And great pleasure it is to have her friendship; and in the works of her hands are infinite riches; and in the exercise of conference with her, prudence; and in talking with her, a good report; I went about seeking how to take her to me.

bes@Wis:8:19 @ For I was a witty child, and had a good spirit.

bes@Wis:8:21 @ Nevertheless, when I perceived that I could not otherwise obtain her, except God gave her me; and that was a point of wisdom also to know whose gift she was; I prayed unto the Lord, and besought him, and with my whole heart I said,

bes@Wis:9:1 @ O God of my fathers, and Lord of mercy, who hast made all things with thy word,

bes@Wis:9:3 @ And order the world according to equity and righteousness, and execute judgement with an upright heart:

bes@Wis:9:4 @ Give me wisdom, that sitteth by thy throne; and reject me not from among thy children:

bes@Wis:9:6 @ For though a man be never so perfect among the children of men, yet if thy wisdom be not with him, he shall be nothing regarded.

bes@Wis:9:8 @ Thou hast commanded me to build a temple upon thy holy mount, and an altar in the city wherein thou dwellest, a resemblance of the holy tabernacle, which thou hast prepared from the beginning.

bes@Wis:9:9 @ And wisdom was with thee: which knoweth thy works, and was present when thou madest the world, and knew what was acceptable in thy sight, and right in thy commandments.

bes@Wis:9:10 @ O send her out of thy holy heavens, and from the throne of thy glory, that being present she may labour with me, that I may know what is pleasing unto thee.

bes@Wis:9:12 @ So shall my works be acceptable, and then shall I judge thy people righteously, and be worthy to sit in my father’s seat.

bes@Wis:9:16 @ And hardly do we guess aright at things that are upon earth, and with labour do we find the things that are before us: but the things that are in heaven who hath searched out?

bes@Wis:9:17 @ And thy counsel who hath known, except thou give wisdom, and send thy Holy Spirit from above?

bes@Wis:10:3 @ But when the unrighteous went away from her in his anger, he perished also in the fury wherewith he murdered his brother.

bes@Wis:10:4 @ For whose cause the earth being drowned with the flood, wisdom again preserved it, and directed the course of the righteous in a piece of wood of small value.

bes@Wis:10:6 @ When the ungodly perished, she delivered the righteous man, who fled from the fire which fell down upon the five cities.

bes@Wis:10:7 @ Of whose wickedness even to this day the waste land that smoketh is a testimony, and plants bearing fruit that never come to ripeness: and a standing pillar of salt is a monument of an unbelieving soul.

bes@Wis:10:10 @ When the righteous fled from his brother’s wrath she guided him in right paths, shewed him the kingdom of God, and gave him knowledge of holy things, made him rich in his travels, and multiplied the fruit of his labours.

bes@Wis:10:12 @ She defended him from his enemies, and kept him safe from those that lay in wait, and in a sore conflict she gave him the victory; that he might know that goodness is stronger than all.

bes@Wis:10:13 @ When the righteous was sold, she forsook him not, but delivered him from sin: she went down with him into the pit,

bes@Wis:10:16 @ She entered into the soul of the servant of the Lord, and withstood dreadful kings in wonders and signs;

bes@Wis:10:20 @ Therefore the righteous spoiled the ungodly, and praised thy holy name, O Lord, and magnified with one accord thine hand, that fought for them.

bes@Wis:11:2 @ They went through the wilderness that was not inhabited, and pitched tents in places where there lay no way.

bes@Wis:11:5 @ For by what things their enemies were punished, by the same they in their need were benefited.

bes@Wis:11:6 @ For instead of a fountain of a perpetual running river troubled with foul blood,

bes@Wis:11:9 @ For when they were tried albeit but in mercy chastised, they knew how the ungodly were judged in wrath and tormented, thirsting in another manner than the just.

bes@Wis:11:13 @ For when they heard by their own punishments the other to be benefited, they had some feeling of the Lord.

bes@Wis:11:14 @ For whom they respected with scorn, when he was long before thrown out at the casting forth of the infants, him in the end, when they saw what came to pass, they admired.

bes@Wis:11:15 @ But for the foolish devices of their wickedness, wherewith being deceived they worshipped serpents void of reason, and vile beasts, thou didst send a multitude of unreasonable beasts upon them for vengeance;

bes@Wis:11:16 @ That they might know, that wherewithal a man sinneth, by the same also shall he be punished.

bes@Wis:11:17 @ For thy Almighty hand, that made the world of matter without form, wanted not means to send among them a multitude of bears or fierce lions,

bes@Wis:11:18 @ Or unknown wild beasts, full of rage, newly created, breathing out either a fiery vapour, or filthy scents of scattered smoke, or shooting horrible sparkles out of their eyes:

bes@Wis:11:20 @ Yea, and without these might they have fallen down with one blast, being persecuted of vengeance, and scattered abroad through the breath of thy power: but thou hast ordered all things in measure and number and weight.

bes@Wis:11:21 @ For thou canst shew thy great strength at all times when thou wilt; and who may withstand the power of thine arm?

bes@Wis:11:22 @ For the whole world before thee is as a little grain of the balance, yea, as a drop of the morning dew that falleth down upon the earth.

bes@Wis:11:24 @ For thou lovest all the things that are, and abhorrest nothing which thou hast made: for never wouldest thou have made any thing, if thou hadst hated it.

bes@Wis:11:25 @ And how could any thing have endured, if it had not been thy will? or been preserved, if not called by thee?

bes@Wis:12:1 @ For thine incorruptible Spirit is in all things.

bes@Wis:12:2 @ Therefore chastenest thou them by little and little that offend, and warnest them by putting them in remembrance wherein they have offended, that leaving their wickedness they may believe on thee, O Lord.

bes@Wis:12:3 @ For it was thy will to destroy by the hands of our fathers both those old inhabitants of thy holy land,

bes@Wis:12:4 @ Whom thou hatedst for doing most odious works of witchcrafts, and wicked sacrifices;

bes@Wis:12:6 @ With their priests out of the midst of their idolatrous crew, and the parents, that killed with their own hands souls destitute of help:

bes@Wis:12:8 @ Nevertheless even those thou sparedst as men, and didst send wasps, forerunners of thine host, to destroy them by little and little.

bes@Wis:12:9 @ Not that thou wast unable to bring the ungodly under the hand of the righteous in battle, or to destroy them at once with cruel beasts, or with one rough word:

bes@Wis:12:10 @ But executing thy judgements upon them by little and little, thou gavest them place of repentance, not being ignorant that they were a naughty generation, and that their malice was bred in them, and that their cogitation would never be changed.

bes@Wis:12:11 @ For it was a cursed seed from the beginning; neither didst thou for fear of any man give them pardon for those things wherein they sinned.

bes@Wis:12:12 @ For who shall say, What hast thou done? or who shall withstand thy judgement? or who shall accuse thee for the nations that perish, whom thou made? or who shall come to stand against thee, to be revenged for the unrighteous men?

bes@Wis:12:13 @ For neither is there any God but thou that careth for all, to whom thou mightest shew that thy judgement is not unright.

bes@Wis:12:14 @ Neither shall king or tyrant be able to set his face against thee for any whom thou hast punished.

bes@Wis:12:15 @ Forsomuch then as thou art righteous thyself, thou orderest all things righteously: thinking it not agreeable with thy power to condemn him that hath not deserved to be punished.

bes@Wis:12:16 @ For thy power is the beginning of righteousness, and because thou art the Lord of all, it maketh thee to be gracious unto all.

bes@Wis:12:17 @ For when men will not believe that thou art of a full power, thou shewest thy strength, and among them that know it thou makest their boldness manifest.

bes@Wis:12:18 @ But thou, mastering thy power, judgest with equity, and orderest us with great favour: for thou mayest use power when thou wilt.

bes@Wis:12:20 @ For if thou didst punish the enemies of thy children, and the condemned to death, with such deliberation, giving them time and place, whereby they might be delivered from their malice:

bes@Wis:12:21 @ With how great circumspection didst thou judge thine own sons, unto whose fathers thou hast sworn, and made covenants of good promises?

bes@Wis:12:23 @ Wherefore, whereas men have lived dissolutely and unrighteously, thou hast tormented them with their own abominations.

bes@Wis:12:25 @ Therefore unto them, as to children without the use of reason, thou didst send a judgement to mock them.

bes@Wis:12:26 @ But they that would not be reformed by that correction, wherein he dallied with them, shall feel a judgement worthy of God.

bes@Wis:12:27 @ For, look, for what things they grudged, when they were punished, that is, for them whom they thought to be gods; now being punished in them, when they saw it, they acknowledged him to be the true God, whom before they denied to know: and therefore came extreme damnation upon them.

bes@Wis:13:1 @ Surely vain are all men by nature, who are ignorant of God, and could not out of the good things that are seen know him that is: neither by considering the works did they acknowledge the workmaster;

bes@Wis:13:2 @ But deemed either fire, or wind, or the swift air, or the circle of the stars, or the violent water, or the lights of heaven, to be the gods which govern the world.

bes@Wis:13:3 @ With whose beauty if they being delighted took them to be gods; let them know how much better the Lord of them is: for the first author of beauty hath created them.

bes@Wis:13:8 @ Howbeit neither are they to be pardoned.

bes@Wis:13:11 @ Now a carpenter that felleth timber, after he hath sawn down a tree meet for the purpose, and taken off all the bark skilfully round about, and hath wrought it handsomely, and made a vessel thereof fit for the service of man’s life;

bes@Wis:13:13 @ And taking the very refuse among those which served to no use, being a crooked piece of wood, and full of knots, hath carved it diligently, when he had nothing else to do, and formed it by the skill of his understanding, and fashioned it to the image of a man;

bes@Wis:13:14 @ Or made it like some vile beast, laying it over with vermilion, and with paint colouring it red, and covering every spot therein;

bes@Wis:13:15 @ And when he had made a convenient room for it, set it in a wall, and made it fast with iron:

bes@Wis:13:16 @ For he provided for it that it might not fall, knowing that it was unable to help itself; for it is an image, and hath need of help:

bes@Wis:13:19 @ And for gaining and getting, and for good success of his hands, asketh ability to do of him, that is most unable to do any thing.

bes@Wis:14:2 @ For verily desire of gain devised that, and the workman built it by his skill.

bes@Wis:14:3 @ But thy providence, O Father, governeth it: for thou hast made a way in the sea, and a safe path in the waves;

bes@Wis:14:4 @ Shewing that thou canst save from all danger: yea, though a man went to sea without art.

bes@Wis:14:5 @ Nevertheless thou wouldest not that the works of thy wisdom should be idle, and therefore do men commit their lives to a small piece of wood, and passing the rough sea in a weak vessel are saved.

bes@Wis:14:8 @ But that which is made with hands is cursed, as well it, as he that made it: he, because he made it; and it, because, being corruptible, it was called god.

bes@Wis:14:10 @ For that which is made shall be punished together with him that made it.

bes@Wis:14:11 @ Therefore even upon the idols of the Gentiles shall there be a visitation: because in the creature of God they are become an abomination, and stumblingblocks to the souls of men, and a snare to the feet of the unwise.

bes@Wis:14:12 @ For the devising of idols was the beginning of spiritual fornication, and the invention of them the corruption of life.

bes@Wis:14:13 @ For neither were they from the beginning, neither shall they be for ever.

bes@Wis:14:15 @ For a father afflicted with untimely mourning, when he hath made an image of his child soon taken away, now honoured him as a god, which was then a dead man, and delivered to those that were under him ceremonies and sacrifices.

bes@Wis:14:17 @ Whom men could not honour in presence, because they dwelt far off, they took the counterfeit of his visage from far, and made an express image of a king whom they honoured, to the end that by this their forwardness they might flatter him that was absent, as if he were present.

bes@Wis:14:18 @ Also the singular diligence of the artificer did help to set forward the ignorant to more superstition.

bes@Wis:14:19 @ For he, peradventure willing to please one in authority, forced all his skill to make the resemblance of the best fashion.

bes@Wis:14:20 @ And so the multitude, allured by the grace of the work, took him now for a god, which a little before was but honoured.

bes@Wis:14:21 @ And this was an occasion to deceive the world: for men, serving either calamity or tyranny, did ascribe unto stones and stocks the incommunicable name.

bes@Wis:14:23 @ For whilst they slew their children in sacrifices, or used secret ceremonies, or made revellings of strange rites;

bes@Wis:14:24 @ They kept neither lives nor marriages any longer undefiled: but either one slew another traitorously, or grieved him by adultery.

bes@Wis:14:25 @ So that there reigned in all men without exception blood, manslaughter, theft, and dissimulation, corruption, unfaithfulness, tumults, perjury,

bes@Wis:14:28 @ For either they are mad when they be merry, or prophesy lies, or live unjustly, or else lightly forswear themselves.

bes@Wis:14:30 @ Howbeit for both causes shall they be justly punished: both because they thought not well of God, giving heed unto idols, and also unjustly swore in deceit, despising holiness.

bes@Wis:14:31 @ For it is not the power of them by whom they swear: but it is the just vengeance of sinners, that punisheth always the offence of the ungodly.

bes@Wis:15:3 @ For to know thee is perfect righteousness: yea, to know thy power is the root of immortality.

bes@Wis:15:4 @ For neither did the mischievous invention of men deceive us, nor an image spotted with divers colours, the painter’s fruitless labour;

bes@Wis:15:5 @ The sight whereof enticeth fools to lust after it, and so they desire the form of a dead image, that hath no breath.

bes@Wis:15:7 @ For the potter, tempering soft earth, fashioneth every vessel with much labour for our service: yea, of the same clay he maketh both the vessels that serve for clean uses, and likewise also all such as serve to the contrary: but what is the use of either sort, the potter himself is the judge.

bes@Wis:15:8 @ And employing his labours lewdly, he maketh a vain god of the same clay, even he which a little before was made of earth himself, and within a little while after returneth to the same, out when his life which was lent him shall be demanded.

bes@Wis:15:9 @ Notwithstanding his care is, not that he shall have much labour, nor that his life is short: but striveth to excel goldsmiths and silversmiths, and endeavoureth to do like the workers in brass, and counteth it his glory to make counterfeit things.

bes@Wis:15:11 @ Forasmuch as he knew not his Maker, and him that inspired into him an active soul, and breathed in a living spirit.

bes@Wis:15:12 @ But they counted our life a pastime, and our time here a market for gain: for, say they, we must be getting every way, though it be by evil means.

bes@Wis:15:13 @ For this man, that of earthly matter maketh brittle vessels and graven images, knoweth himself to offend above all others.

bes@Wis:15:15 @ For they counted all the idols of the heathen to be gods: which neither have the use of eyes to see, nor noses to draw breath, nor ears to hear, nor fingers of hands to handle; and as for their feet, they are slow to go.

bes@Wis:15:16 @ For man made them, and he that borrowed his own spirit fashioned them: but no man can make a god like unto himself.

bes@Wis:15:17 @ For being mortal, he worketh a dead thing with wicked hands: for he himself is better than the things which he worshippeth: whereas he lived once, but they never.

bes@Wis:15:19 @ Neither are they beautiful, so much as to be desired in respect of beasts: but they went without the praise of God and his blessing.

bes@Wis:16:1 @ Therefore by the like were they punished worthily, and by the multitude of beasts tormented.

bes@Wis:16:2 @ Instead of which punishment, dealing graciously with thine own people, thou preparedst for them meat of a strange taste, even quails to stir up their appetite:

bes@Wis:16:4 @ For it was requisite, that upon them exercising tyranny should come penury, which they could not avoid: but to these it should only be shewed how their enemies were tormented.

bes@Wis:16:5 @ For when the horrible fierceness of beasts came upon these, and they perished with the stings of crooked serpents, thy wrath endured not for ever:

bes@Wis:16:7 @ For he that turned himself toward it was not saved by the thing that he saw, but by thee, that art the Saviour of all.

bes@Wis:16:8 @ And in this thou madest thine enemies confess, that it is thou who deliverest from all evil:

bes@Wis:16:9 @ For them the bitings of grasshoppers and flies killed, neither was there found any remedy for their life: for they were worthy to be punished by such.

bes@Wis:16:12 @ For it was neither herb, nor mollifying plaister, that restored them to health: but thy word, O Lord, which healeth all things.

bes@Wis:16:14 @ A man indeed killeth through his malice: and the spirit, when it is gone forth, returneth not; neither the soul received up cometh again.

bes@Wis:16:15 @ But it is not possible to escape thine hand.

bes@Wis:16:16 @ For the ungodly, that denied to know thee, were scourged by the strength of thine arm: with strange rains, hails, and showers, were they persecuted, that they could not avoid, and through fire were they consumed.

bes@Wis:16:18 @ For sometime the flame was mitigated, that it might not burn up the beasts that were sent against the ungodly; but themselves might see and perceive that they were persecuted with the judgement of God.

bes@Wis:16:19 @ And at another time it burneth even in the midst of water above the power of fire, that it might destroy the fruits of an unjust land.

bes@Wis:16:20 @ Instead whereof thou feddest thine own people with angels’ food, and didst send them from heaven bread prepared without their labour, able to content every man’s delight, and agreeing to every taste.

bes@Wis:16:21 @ For thy sustenance declared thy sweetness unto thy children, and serving to the appetite of the eater, tempered itself to every man’s liking.

bes@Wis:16:22 @ But snow and ice endured the fire, and melted not, that they might know that fire burning in the hail, and sparkling in the rain, did destroy the fruits of the enemies.

bes@Wis:16:24 @ For the creature that serveth thee, who art the Maker increaseth his strength against the unrighteous for their punishment, and abateth his strength for the benefit of such as put their trust in thee.

bes@Wis:16:25 @ Therefore even then was it altered into all fashions, and was obedient to thy grace, that nourisheth all things, according to the desire of them that had need:

bes@Wis:16:26 @ That thy children, O Lord, whom thou lovest, might know, that it is not the growing of fruits that nourisheth man: but that it is thy word, which preserveth them that put their trust in thee.

bes@Wis:16:27 @ For that which was not destroyed of the fire, being warmed with a little sunbeam, soon melted away:

bes@Wis:16:28 @ That it might be known, that we must prevent the sun to give thee thanks, and at the dayspring pray unto thee.

bes@Wis:16:29 @ For the hope of the unthankful shall melt away as the winter’s hoar frost, and shall run away as unprofitable water.

bes@Wis:17:2 @ For when unrighteous men thought to oppress the holy nation; they being shut up in their houses, the prisoners of darkness, and fettered with the bonds of a long night, lay there exiled from the eternal providence.

bes@Wis:17:3 @ For while they supposed to lie hid in their secret sins, they were scattered under a dark veil of forgetfulness, being horribly astonished, and troubled with strange apparitions.

bes@Wis:17:4 @ For neither might the corner that held them keep them from fear: but noises as of waters falling down sounded about them, and sad visions appeared unto them with heavy countenances.

bes@Wis:17:5 @ No power of the fire might give them light: neither could the bright flames of the stars endure to lighten that horrible night.

bes@Wis:17:6 @ Only there appeared unto them a fire kindled of itself, very dreadful: for being much terrified, they thought the things which they saw to be worse than the sight they saw not.

bes@Wis:17:7 @ As for the illusions of art magick, they were put down, and their vaunting in wisdom was reproved with disgrace.

bes@Wis:17:9 @ For though no terrible thing did fear them; yet being scared with beasts that passed by, and hissing of serpents,

bes@Wis:17:11 @ For wickedness, condemned by her own witness, is very timorous, and being pressed with conscience, always forecasteth grievous things.

bes@Wis:17:13 @ And the expectation from within, being less, counteth the ignorance more than the cause which bringeth the torment.

bes@Wis:17:14 @ But they sleeping the same sleep that night, which was indeed intolerable, and which came upon them out of the bottoms of inevitable hell,

bes@Wis:17:15 @ Were partly vexed with monstrous apparitions, and partly fainted, their heart failing them: for a sudden fear, and not looked for, came upon them.

bes@Wis:17:16 @ So then whosoever there fell down was straitly kept, shut up in a prison without iron bars,

bes@Wis:17:17 @ For whether he were husbandman, or shepherd, or a labourer in the field, he was overtaken, and endured that necessity, which could not be avoided: for they were all bound with one chain of darkness.

bes@Wis:17:18 @ Whether it were a whistling wind, or a melodious noise of birds among the spreading branches, or a pleasing fall of water running violently,

bes@Wis:17:20 @ For the whole world shined with clear light, and none were hindered in their labour:

bes@Wis:18:5 @ And when they had determined to slay the babes of the saints, one child being cast forth, and saved, to reprove them, thou tookest away the multitude of their children, and destroyedst them altogether in a mighty water.

bes@Wis:18:8 @ For wherewith thou didst punish our adversaries, by the same thou didst glorify us, whom thou hadst called.

bes@Wis:18:9 @ For the righteous children of good men did sacrifice secretly, and with one consent made a holy law, that the saints should be like partakers of the same good and evil, the fathers now singing out the songs of praise.

bes@Wis:18:12 @ So they all together had innumerable dead with one kind of death; neither were the living sufficient to bury them: for in one moment the noblest offspring of them was destroyed.

bes@Wis:18:16 @ And brought thine unfeigned commandment as a sharp sword, and standing up filled all things with death; and it touched the heaven, but it stood upon the earth.

bes@Wis:18:20 @ Yea, the tasting of death touched the righteous also, and there was a destruction of the multitude in the wilderness: but the wrath endured not long.

bes@Wis:18:21 @ For then the blameless man made haste, and stood forth to defend them; and bringing the shield of his proper ministry, even prayer, and the propitiation of incense, set himself against the wrath, and so brought the calamity to an end, declaring that he was thy servant.

bes@Wis:18:22 @ So he overcame the destroyer, not with strength of body, nor force of arms, but with a word subdued him that punished, alleging the oaths and covenants made with the fathers.

bes@Wis:18:25 @ Unto these the destroyer gave place, and was afraid of them: for it was enough that they only tasted of the wrath.

bes@Wis:19:1 @ As for the ungodly, wrath came upon them without mercy unto the end: for he knew before what they would do;

bes@Wis:19:3 @ For whilst they were yet mourning and making lamentation at the graves of the dead, they added another foolish device, and pursued them as fugitives, whom they had intreated to be gone.

bes@Wis:19:6 @ For the whole creature in his proper kind was fashioned again anew, serving the peculiar commandments that were given unto them, that thy children might be kept without hurt:

bes@Wis:19:7 @ As namely, a cloud shadowing the camp; and where water stood before, dry land appeared; and out of the Red sea a way without impediment; and out of the violent stream a green field:

bes@Wis:19:8 @ Where through all the people went that were defended with thy hand, seeing thy marvellous strange wonders.

bes@Wis:19:10 @ For they were yet mindful of the things that were done while they sojourned in the strange land, how the ground brought forth flies instead of cattle, and how the river cast up a multitude of frogs instead of fishes.

bes@Wis:19:11 @ But afterwards they saw a new generation of fowls, when, being led with their appetite, they asked delicate meats.

bes@Wis:19:13 @ And punishments came upon the sinners not without former signs by the force of thunders: for they suffered justly according to their own wickedness, insomuch as they used a more hard and hateful behaviour toward strangers.

bes@Wis:19:14 @ For the Sodomites did not receive those, whom they knew not when they came: but these brought friends into bondage, that had well deserved of them.

bes@Wis:19:16 @ But these very grievously afflicted them, whom they had received with feastings, and were already made partakers of the same laws with them.

bes@Wis:19:17 @ Therefore even with blindness were these stricken, as those were at the doors of the righteous man: when, being compassed about with horrible great darkness, every one sought the passage of his own doors.

bes@Wis:19:21 @ On the other side, the flames wasted not the flesh of the corruptible living things, though they walked therein; neither melted they the icy kind of heavenly meat that was of nature apt to melt.

bes@Wis:19:22 @ For in all things, O Lord, thou didst magnify thy people, and glorify them, neither didst thou lightly regard them: but didst assist them in every time and place.

bes@Tob:1:1 @ The book of the words of Tobit, son of Tobiel, the son of Ananiel, the son of Aduel, the son of Gabael, of the seed of Asael, of the tribe of Nephthali;

bes@Tob:1:2 @ Who in the time of Enemessar king of the Assyrians was led captive out of Thisbe, which is at the right hand of that city, which is called properly Nephthali in Galilee above Aser.

bes@Tob:1:3 @ I Tobit have walked all the days of my life in the ways of truth and justice, and I did many almsdeeds to my brethren, and my nation, who came with me to Nineve, into the land of the Assyrians.

bes@Tob:1:4 @ And when I was in mine own country, in the land of Israel being but young, all the tribe of Nephthali my father fell from the house of Jerusalem, which was chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, that all the tribes should sacrifice there, where the temple of the habitation of the most High was consecrated and built for all ages.

bes@Tob:1:6 @ But I alone went often to Jerusalem at the feasts, as it was ordained unto all the people of Israel by an everlasting decree, having the firstfruits and tenths of increase, with that which was first shorn; and them gave I at the altar to the priests the children of Aaron.

bes@Tob:1:7 @ The first tenth part of all increase I gave to the sons of Aaron, who ministered at Jerusalem: another tenth part I sold away, and went, and spent it every year at Jerusalem:

bes@Tob:1:8 @ And the third I gave unto them to whom it was meet, as Debora my father’s mother had commanded me, because I was left an orphan by my father.

bes@Tob:1:12 @ Because I remembered God with all my heart.

bes@Tob:1:14 @ And I went into Media, and left in trust with Gabael, the brother of Gabrias, at Rages a city of Media ten talents of silver.

bes@Tob:1:19 @ And when one of the Ninevites went and complained of me to the king, that I buried them, and hid myself; understanding that I was sought for to be put to death, I withdrew myself for fear.

bes@Tob:1:20 @ Then all my goods were forcibly taken away, neither was there any thing left me, beside my wife Anna and my son Tobias.

bes@Tob:2:1 @ Now when I was come home again, and my wife Anna was restored unto me, with my son Tobias, in the feast of Pentecost, which is the holy feast of the seven weeks, there was a good dinner prepared me, in the which I sat down to eat.

bes@Tob:2:10 @ And I knew not that there were sparrows in the wall, and mine eyes being open, the sparrows muted warm dung into mine eyes, and a whiteness came in mine eyes: and I went to the physicians, but they helped me not: moreover Achiacharus did nourish me, until I went into Elymais.

bes@Tob:2:13 @ And when it was in my house, and began to cry, I said unto her, From whence is this kid? is it not stolen? render it to the owners; for it is not lawful to eat any thing that is stolen.

bes@Tob:2:14 @ But she replied upon me, It was given for a gift more than the wages. Howbeit I did not believe her, but bade her render it to the owners: and I was abashed at her. But she replied upon me, Where are thine alms and thy righteous deeds? behold, thou and all thy works are known.

bes@Tob:3:4 @ For they obeyed not thy commandments: wherefore thou hast delivered us for a spoil, and unto captivity, and unto death, and for a proverb of reproach to all the nations among whom we are dispersed.

bes@Tob:3:5 @ And now thy judgements are many and true: deal with me according to my sins and my fathers’: because we have not kept thy commandments, neither have walked in truth before thee.

bes@Tob:3:6 @ Now therefore deal with me as seemeth best unto thee, and command my spirit to be taken from me, that I may be dissolved, and become earth: for it is profitable for me to die rather than to live, because I have heard false reproaches, and have much sorrow: command therefore that I may now be delivered out of this distress, and go into the everlasting place: turn not thy face away from me.

bes@Tob:3:7 @ It came to pass the same day, that in Ecbatane a city of Media Sara the daughter of Raguel was also reproached by her father’s maids;

bes@Tob:3:8 @ Because that she had been married to seven husbands, whom Asmodeus the evil spirit had killed, before they had lain with her. Dost thou not know, said they, that thou hast strangled thine husbands? thou hast had already seven husbands, neither wast thou named after any of them.

bes@Tob:3:9 @ Wherefore dost thou beat us for them? if they be dead, go thy ways after them, let us never see of thee either son or daughter.

bes@Tob:3:10 @ When she heard these things, she was very sorrowful, so that she thought to have strangled herself; and she said, I am the only daughter of my father, and if I do this, it shall be a reproach unto him, and I shall bring his old age with sorrow unto the grave.

bes@Tob:3:14 @ Thou knowest, Lord, that I am pure from all sin with man,

bes@Tob:3:15 @ And that I never polluted my name, nor the name of my father, in the land of my captivity: I am the only daughter of my father, neither hath he any child to be his heir, neither any near kinsman, nor any son of his alive, to whom I may keep myself for a wife: my seven husbands are already dead; and why should I live? but if it please not thee that I should die, command some regard to be had of me, and pity taken of me, that I hear no more reproach.

bes@Tob:3:17 @ And Raphael was sent to heal them both, that is, to scale away the whiteness of Tobit’s eyes, and to give Sara the daughter of Raguel for a wife to Tobias the son of Tobit; and to bind Asmodeus the evil spirit; because she belonged to Tobias by right of inheritance. The selfsame time came Tobit home, and entered into his house, and Sara the daughter of Raguel came down from her upper chamber.

bes@Tob:4:1 @ In that day Tobit remembered the money which he had committed to Gabael in Rages of Media,

bes@Tob:4:2 @ And said with himself, I have wished for death; wherefore do I not call for my son Tobias that I may signify to him of the money before I die?

bes@Tob:4:7 @ Give alms of thy substance; and when thou givest alms, let not thine eye be envious, neither turn thy face from any poor, and the face of God shall not be turned away from thee.

bes@Tob:4:8 @ If thou hast abundance give alms accordingly: if thou have but a little, be not afraid to give according to that little:

bes@Tob:4:9 @ For thou layest up a good treasure for thyself against the day of necessity.

bes@Tob:4:11 @ For alms is a good gift unto all that give it in the sight of the most High.

bes@Tob:4:12 @ Beware of all whoredom, my son, and chiefly take a wife of the seed of thy fathers, and take not a strange woman to wife, which is not of thy father’s tribe: for we are the children of the prophets, Noe, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: remember, my son, that our fathers from the beginning, even that they all married wives of their own kindred, and were blessed in their children, and their seed shall inherit the land.

bes@Tob:4:14 @ Let not the wages of any man, which hath wrought for thee, tarry with thee, but give him it out of hand: for if thou serve God, he will also repay thee: be circumspect my son, in all things thou doest, and be wise in all thy conversation.

bes@Tob:4:15 @ Do that to no man which thou hatest: drink not wine to make thee drunken: neither let drunkenness go with thee in thy journey.

bes@Tob:4:18 @ Ask counsel of all that are wise, and despise not any counsel that is profitable.

bes@Tob:4:19 @ Bless the Lord thy God alway, and desire of him that thy ways may be directed, and that all thy paths and counsels may prosper: for every nation hath not counsel; but the Lord himself giveth all good things, and he humbleth whom he will, as he will; now therefore, my son, remember my commandments, neither let them be put out of thy mind.

bes@Tob:4:20 @ And now I signify this to they that I committed ten talents to Gabael the son of Gabrias at Rages in Media.

bes@Tob:5:3 @ Then he gave him the handwriting, and said unto him, Seek thee a man which may go with thee, whiles I yet live, and I will give him wages: and go and receive the money.

bes@Tob:5:5 @ But he knew not; and he said unto him, Canst thou go with me to Rages? and knowest thou those places well?

bes@Tob:5:6 @ To whom the angel said, I will go with thee, and I know the way well: for I have lodged with our brother Gabael.

bes@Tob:5:8 @ Then he said unto him, Go and tarry not. So he went in and said to his father, Behold, I have found one which will go with me. Then he said, Call him unto me, that I may know of what tribe he is, and whether he be a trusty man to go with thee.

bes@Tob:5:10 @ Then Tobit said unto him, Brother, shew me of what tribe and family thou art.

bes@Tob:5:11 @ To whom he said, Dost thou seek for a tribe or family, or an hired man to go with thy son? Then Tobit said unto him, I would know, brother, thy kindred and name.

bes@Tob:5:13 @ Then Tobit said, Thou art welcome, brother; be not now angry with me, because I have enquired to know thy tribe and thy family; for thou art my brother, of an honest and good stock: for I know Ananias and Jonathas, sons of that great Samaias, as we went together to Jerusalem to worship, and offered the firstborn, and the tenths of the fruits; and they were not seduced with the error of our brethren: my brother, thou art of a good stock.

bes@Tob:5:16 @ So they were well pleased. Then said he to Tobias, Prepare thyself for the journey, and God send you a good journey. And when his son had prepared all things far the journey, his father said, Go thou with this man, and God, which dwelleth in heaven, prosper your journey, and the angel of God keep you company. So they went forth both, and the young man’s dog with them.

bes@Tob:5:17 @ But Anna his mother wept, and said to Tobit, Why hast thou sent away our son? is he not the staff of our hand, in going in and out before us?

bes@Tob:5:18 @ Be not greedy to add money to money: but let it be as refuse in respect of our child.

bes@Tob:5:19 @ For that which the Lord hath given us to live with doth suffice us.

bes@Tob:5:20 @ Then said Tobit to her, Take no care, my sister; he shall return in safety, and thine eyes shall see him.

bes@Tob:6:3 @ Then the angel said unto him, Take the fish. And the young man laid hold of the fish, and drew it to land.

bes@Tob:6:5 @ So the young man did as the angel commanded him; and when they had roasted the fish, they did eat it: then they both went on their way, till they drew near to Ecbatane.

bes@Tob:6:7 @ And he said unto him, Touching the heart and the liver, if a devil or an evil spirit trouble any, we must make a smoke thereof before the man or the woman, and the party shall be no more vexed.

bes@Tob:6:8 @ As for the gall, it is good to anoint a man that hath whiteness in his eyes, and he shall be healed.

bes@Tob:6:10 @ The angel said to the young man, Brother, to day we shall lodge with Raguel, who is thy cousin; he also hath one only daughter, named Sara; I will speak for her, that she may be given thee for a wife.

bes@Tob:6:12 @ And the maid is fair and wise: now therefore hear me, and I will speak to her father; and when we return from Rages we will celebrate the marriage: for I know that Raguel cannot marry her to another according to the law of Moses, but he shall be guilty of death, because the right of inheritance doth rather appertain to thee than to any other.

bes@Tob:6:14 @ And now I am the only son of my father, and I am afraid, lest if I go in unto her, I die, as the other before: for a wicked spirit loveth her, which hurteth no body, but those which come unto her; wherefore I also fear lest I die, and bring my father’s and my mother’s life because of me to the grave with sorrow: for they have no other son to bury them.

bes@Tob:6:15 @ Then the angel said unto him, Dost thou not remember the precepts which thy father gave thee, that thou shouldest marry a wife of thine own kindred? wherefore hear me, O my brother; for she shall be given thee to wife; and make thou no reckoning of the evil spirit; for this same night shall she be given thee in marriage.

bes@Tob:6:16 @ And when thou shalt come into the marriage chamber, thou shalt take the ashes of perfume, and shalt lay upon them some of the heart and liver of the fish, and shalt make a smoke with it:

bes@Tob:6:17 @ And the devil shall smell it, and flee away, and never come again any more: but when thou shalt come to her, rise up both of you, and pray to God which is merciful, who will have pity on you, and save you: fear not, for she is appointed unto thee from the beginning; and thou shalt preserve her, and she shall go with thee. Moreover I suppose that she shall bear thee children. Now when Tobias had heard these things, he loved her, and his heart was effectually joined to her.

bes@Tob:7:2 @ Then said Raguel to Edna his wife, How like is this young man to Tobit my cousin!

bes@Tob:7:4 @ Then he said to them, Do ye know Tobit our kinsman? And they said, We know him. Then said he, Is he in good health?

bes@Tob:7:7 @ And blessed him, and said unto him, Thou art the son of an honest and good man. But when he had heard that Tobit was blind, he was sorrowful, and wept.

bes@Tob:7:9 @ So he communicated the matter with Raguel: and Raguel said to Tobias, Eat and drink, and make merry:

bes@Tob:7:10 @ For it is meet that thou shouldest marry my daughter: nevertheless I will declare unto thee the truth.

bes@Tob:7:14 @ And called Edna his wife, and took paper, and did write an instrument of covenants, and sealed it.

bes@Tob:7:16 @ After Raguel called his wife Edna, and said unto her, Sister, prepare another chamber, and bring her in thither.

bes@Tob:7:17 @ Which when she had done as he had bidden her, she brought her thither: and she wept, and she received the tears of her daughter, and said unto her,

bes@Tob:8:2 @ And as he went, he remembered the words of Raphael, and took the ashes of the perfumes, and put the heart and the liver of the fish thereupon, and made a smoke therewith.

bes@Tob:8:3 @ The which smell when the evil spirit had smelled, he fled into the utmost parts of Egypt, and the angel bound him.

bes@Tob:8:4 @ And after that they were both shut in together, Tobias rose out of the bed, and said, Sister, arise, and let us pray that God would have pity on us.

bes@Tob:8:6 @ Thou madest Adam, and gavest him Eve his wife for an helper and stay: of them came mankind: thou hast said, It is not good that man should be alone; let us make unto him an aid like unto himself.

bes@Tob:8:8 @ And she said with him, Amen.

bes@Tob:8:12 @ He said unto his wife Edna. Send one of the maids, and let her see whether he be alive: if he be not, that we may bury him, and no man know it.

bes@Tob:8:15 @ Then Raguel praised God, and said, O God, thou art worthy to be praised with all pure and holy praise; therefore let thy saints praise thee with all thy creatures; and let all thine angels and thine elect praise thee for ever.

bes@Tob:8:16 @ Thou art to be praised, for thou hast made me joyful; and that is not come to me which I suspected; but thou hast dealt with us according to thy great mercy.

bes@Tob:8:17 @ Thou art to be praised because thou hast had mercy of two that were the only begotten children of their fathers: grant them mercy, O Lord, and finish their life in health with joy and mercy.

bes@Tob:9:2 @ Brother Azarias, take with thee a servant, and two camels, and go to Rages of Media to Gabael, and bring me the money, and bring him to the wedding.

bes@Tob:9:5 @ So Raphael went out, and lodged with Gabael, and gave him the handwriting: who brought forth bags which were sealed up, and gave them to him.

bes@Tob:10:1 @ Now Tobit his father counted every day: and when the days of the journey were expired, and they came not,

bes@Tob:10:2 @ Then Tobit said, Are they detained? or is Gabael dead, and there is no man to give him the money?

bes@Tob:10:6 @ To whom Tobit said, Hold thy peace, take no care, for he is safe.

bes@Tob:10:9 @ But his father in law said unto him, Tarry with me, and I will send to thy father, and they shall declare unto him how things go with thee.

bes@Tob:10:13 @ And he said to his daughter, Honour thy father and thy mother in law, which are now thy parents, that I may hear good report of thee. And he kissed her. Edna also said to Tobias, The Lord of heaven restore thee, my dear brother, and grant that I may see thy children of my daughter Sara before I die, that I may rejoice before the Lord: behold, I commit my daughter unto thee of special trust; where are do not entreat her evil.

bes@Tob:11:6 @ And when she espied him coming, she said to his father, Behold, thy son cometh, and the man that went with him.

bes@Tob:11:8 @ Therefore anoint thou his eyes with the gall, and being pricked therewith, he shall rub, and the whiteness shall fall away, and he shall see thee.

bes@Tob:11:10 @ Tobit also went forth toward the door, and stumbled: but his son ran unto him,

bes@Tob:11:13 @ And the whiteness pilled away from the corners of his eyes: and when he saw his son, he fell upon his neck.

bes@Tob:11:15 @ For thou hast scourged, and hast taken pity on me: for, behold, I see my son Tobias. And his son went in rejoicing, and told his father the great things that had happened to him in Media.

bes@Tob:11:16 @ Then Tobit went out to meet his daughter in law at the gate of Nineve, rejoicing and praising God: and they which saw him go marvelled, because he had received his sight.

bes@Tob:11:19 @ And Tobias’ wedding was kept seven days with great joy.

bes@Tob:12:1 @ Then Tobit called his son Tobias, and said unto him, My son, see that the man have his wages, which went with thee, and thou must give him more.

bes@Tob:12:2 @ And Tobias said unto him, O father, it is no harm to me to give him half of those things which I have brought:

bes@Tob:12:4 @ Then the old man said, It is due unto him.

bes@Tob:12:6 @ Then he took them both apart, and said unto them, Bless God, praise him, and magnify him, and praise him for the things which he hath done unto you in the sight of all that live. It is good to praise God, and exalt his name, and honourably to shew forth the works of God; therefore be not slack to praise him.

bes@Tob:12:7 @ It is good to keep close the secret of a king, but it is honourable to reveal the works of God. Do that which is good, and no evil shall touch you.

bes@Tob:12:8 @ Prayer is good with fasting and alms and righteousness. A little with righteousness is better than much with unrighteousness. It is better to give alms than to lay up gold:

bes@Tob:12:9 @ For alms doth deliver from death, and shall purge away all sin. Those that exercise alms and righteousness shall be filled with life:

bes@Tob:12:11 @ Surely I will keep close nothing from you. For I said, It was good to keep close the secret of a king, but that it was honourable to reveal the works of God.

bes@Tob:12:12 @ Now therefore, when thou didst pray, and Sara thy daughter in law, I did bring the remembrance of your prayers before the Holy One: and when thou didst bury the dead, I was with thee likewise.

bes@Tob:12:13 @ And when thou didst not delay to rise up, and leave thy dinner, to go and cover the dead, thy good deed was not hid from me: but I was with thee.

bes@Tob:12:17 @ But he said unto them, Fear not, for it shall go well with you; praise God therefore.

bes@Tob:12:19 @ All these days I did appear unto you; but I did neither eat nor drink, but ye did see a vision.

bes@Tob:12:20 @ Now therefore give God thanks: for I go up to him that sent me; but write all things which are done in a book.

bes@Tob:13:1 @ Then Tobit wrote a prayer of rejoicing, and said, Blessed be God that liveth for ever, and blessed be his kingdom.

bes@Tob:13:2 @ For he doth scourge, and hath mercy: he leadeth down to hell, and bringeth up again: neither is there any that can avoid his hand.

bes@Tob:13:5 @ And he will scourge us for our iniquities, and will have mercy again, and will gather us out of all nations, among whom he hath scattered us.

bes@Tob:13:6 @ If ye turn to him with your whole heart, and with your whole mind, and deal uprightly before him, then will he turn unto you, and will not hide his face from you. Therefore see what he will do with you, and confess him with your whole mouth, and praise the Lord of might, and extol the everlasting King. In the land of my captivity do I praise him, and declare his might and majesty to a sinful nation. O ye sinners, turn and do justice before him: who can tell if he will accept you, and have mercy on you?

bes@Tob:13:9 @ O Jerusalem, the holy city, he will scourge thee for thy children’s works, and will have mercy again on the sons of the righteous.

bes@Tob:13:10 @ Give praise to the Lord, for he is good: and praise the everlasting King, that his tabernacle may be builded in thee again with joy, and let him make joyful there in thee those that are captives, and love in thee for ever those that are miserable.

bes@Tob:13:11 @ Many nations shall come from far to the name of the Lord God with gifts in their hands, even gifts to the King of heaven; all generations shall praise thee with great joy.

bes@Tob:13:16 @ For Jerusalem shall be built up with sapphires and emeralds, and precious stone: thy walls and towers and battlements with pure gold.

bes@Tob:13:17 @ And the streets of Jerusalem shall be paved with beryl and carbuncle and stones of Ophir.

bes@Tob:13:18 @ And all her streets shall say, Alleluia; and they shall praise him, saying, Blessed be God, which hath extolled it for ever.

bes@Tob:14:1 @ So Tobit made an end of praising God.

bes@Tob:14:4 @ Go into Media my son, for I surely believe those things which Jonas the prophet spake of Nineve, that it shall be overthrown; and that for a time peace shall rather be in Media; and that our brethren shall lie scattered in the earth from that good land: and Jerusalem shall be desolate, and the house of God in it shall be burned, and shall be desolate for a time;

bes@Tob:14:5 @ And that again God will have mercy on them, and bring them again into the land, where they shall build a temple, but not like to the first, until the time of that age be fulfilled; and afterward they shall return from all places of their captivity, and build up Jerusalem gloriously, and the house of God shall be built in it for ever with a glorious building, as the prophets have spoken thereof.

bes@Tob:14:9 @ But keep thou the law and the commandments, and shew thyself merciful and just, that it may go well with thee.

bes@Tob:14:10 @ And bury me decently, and thy mother with me; but tarry no longer at Nineve. Remember, my son, how Aman handled Achiacharus that brought him up, how out of light he brought him into darkness, and how he rewarded him again: yet Achiacharus was saved, but the other had his reward: for he went down into darkness. Manasses gave alms, and escaped the snares of death which they had set for him: but Aman fell into the snare, and perished.

bes@Tob:14:12 @ And when Anna his mother was dead, he buried her with his father. But Tobias departed with his wife and children to Ecbatane to Raguel his father in law,

bes@Tob:14:13 @ Where he became old with honour, and he buried his father and mother in law honourably, and he inherited their substance, and his father Tobit’s.

bes@Sir:1:2 @ Who can number the sand of the sea, and the drops of rain, and the days of eternity?

bes@Sir:1:8 @ There is one wise and greatly to be feared, the Lord sitting upon his throne.

bes@Sir:1:10 @ She is with all flesh according to his gift, and he hath given her to them that love him.

bes@Sir:1:13 @ Whoso feareth the Lord, it shall go well with him at the last, and he shall find favour in the day of his death.

bes@Sir:1:14 @ To fear the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and it was created with the faithful in the womb.

bes@Sir:1:15 @ She hath built an everlasting foundation with men, and she shall continue with their seed.

bes@Sir:1:16 @ To fear the Lord is fulness of wisdom, and filleth men with her fruits.

bes@Sir:1:17 @ She filleth all their house with things desirable, and the garners with her increase.

bes@Sir:1:18 @ The fear of the Lord is a crown of wisdom, making peace and perfect health to flourish; both which are the gifts of God: and it enlargeth their rejoicing that love him.

bes@Sir:1:21 @ The fear of the Lord driveth away sins: and where it is present, it turneth away wrath.

bes@Sir:1:27 @ For the fear of the Lord is wisdom and instruction: and faith and meekness are his delight.

bes@Sir:1:28 @ Distrust not the fear of the Lord when thou art poor: and come not unto him with a double heart.

bes@Sir:1:29 @ Be not an hypocrite in the sight of men, and take good heed what thou speakest.

bes@Sir:1:30 @ Exalt not thyself, lest thou fall, and bring dishonour upon thy soul, and so God discover thy secrets, and cast thee down in the midst of the congregation, because thou camest not in truth to the fear of the Lord, but thy heart is full of deceit.

bes@Sir:2:5 @ For gold is tried in the fire, and acceptable men in the furnace of adversity.

bes@Sir:2:7 @ Ye that fear the Lord, wait for his mercy; and go not aside, lest ye fall.

bes@Sir:2:11 @ For the Lord is full of compassion and mercy, longsuffering, and very pitiful, and forgiveth sins, and saveth in time of affliction.

bes@Sir:2:14 @ Woe unto you that have lost patience! and what will ye do when the Lord shall visit you?

bes@Sir:2:16 @ They that fear the Lord will seek that which is well, pleasing unto him; and they that love him shall be filled with the law.

bes@Sir:3:2 @ For the Lord hath given the father honour over the children, and hath confirmed the authority of the mother over the sons.

bes@Sir:3:13 @ And if his understanding fail, have patience with him; and despise him not when thou art in thy full strength.

bes@Sir:3:14 @ For the relieving of thy father shall not be forgotten: and instead of sins it shall be added to build thee up.

bes@Sir:3:15 @ In the day of thine affliction it shall be remembered; thy sins also shall melt away, as the ice in the fair warm weather.

bes@Sir:3:17 @ My son, go on with thy business in meekness; so shalt thou be beloved of him that is approved.

bes@Sir:3:21 @ Seek not out things that are too hard for thee, neither search the things that are above thy strength.

bes@Sir:3:22 @ But what is commanded thee, think thereupon with reverence, for it is not needful for thee to see with thine eyes the things that are in secret.

bes@Sir:3:25 @ Without eyes thou shalt want light: profess not the knowledge therefore that thou hast not.

bes@Sir:3:27 @ An obstinate heart shall be laden with sorrows; and the wicked man shall heap sin upon sin.

bes@Sir:3:31 @ And he that requiteth good turns is mindful of that which may come hereafter; and when he falleth, he shall find a stay.

bes@Sir:4:1 @ My son, defraud not the poor of his living, and make not the needy eyes to wait long.

bes@Sir:4:2 @ Make not an hungry soul sorrowful; neither provoke a man in his distress.

bes@Sir:4:4 @ Reject not the supplication of the afflicted; neither turn away thy face from a poor man.

bes@Sir:4:8 @ Let it not grieve thee to bow down thine ear to the poor, and give him a friendly answer with meekness.

bes@Sir:4:9 @ Deliver him that suffereth wrong from the hand of the oppressor; and be not fainthearted when thou sittest in judgement.

bes@Sir:4:12 @ He that loveth her loveth life; and they that seek to her early shall be filled with joy.

bes@Sir:4:13 @ He that holdeth her fast shall inherit glory; and wheresoever she entereth, the Lord will bless.

bes@Sir:4:16 @ If a man commit himself unto her, he shall inherit her; and his generation shall hold her in possession.

bes@Sir:4:17 @ For at the first she will walk with him by crooked ways, and bring fear and dread upon him, and torment him with her discipline, until she may trust his soul, and try him by her laws.

bes@Sir:4:20 @ Observe the opportunity, and beware of evil; and be not ashamed when it concerneth thy soul.

bes@Sir:4:27 @ Make not thyself an underling to a foolish man; neither accept the person of the mighty.

bes@Sir:5:5 @ Concerning propitiation, be not without fear to add sin unto sin:

bes@Sir:5:6 @ And say not His mercy is great; he will be pacified for the multitude of my sins: for mercy and wrath come from him, and his indignation resteth upon sinners.

bes@Sir:5:7 @ Make no tarrying to turn to the Lord, and put not off from day to day: for suddenly shall the wrath of the Lord come forth, and in thy security thou shalt be destroyed, and perish in the day of vengeance.

bes@Sir:5:8 @ Set not thine heart upon goods unjustly gotten, for they shall not profit thee in the day of calamity.

bes@Sir:5:9 @ Winnow not with every wind, and go not into every way: for so doth the sinner that hath a double tongue.

bes@Sir:5:11 @ Be swift to hear; and let thy life be sincere; and with patience give answer.

bes@Sir:5:14 @ Be not called a whisperer, and lie not in wait with thy tongue: for a foul shame is upon the thief, and an evil condemnation upon the double tongue.

bes@Sir:6:1 @ Instead of a friend become not an enemy; for thereby thou shalt inherit an ill name, shame, and reproach: even so shall a sinner that hath a double tongue.

bes@Sir:6:3 @ Thou shalt eat up thy leaves, and lose thy fruit, and leave thyself as a dry tree.

bes@Sir:6:4 @ A wicked soul shall destroy him that hath it, and shall make him to be laughed to scorn of his enemies.

bes@Sir:6:6 @ Be in peace with many: nevertheless have but one counsellor of a thousand.

bes@Sir:6:7 @ If thou wouldest get a friend, prove him first and be not hasty to credit him.

bes@Sir:6:9 @ And there is a friend, who being turned to enmity, and strife will discover thy reproach.

bes@Sir:6:11 @ But in thy prosperity he will be as thyself, and will be bold over thy servants.

bes@Sir:6:14 @ A faithful friend is a strong defence: and he that hath found such an one hath found a treasure.

bes@Sir:6:15 @ Nothing doth countervail a faithful friend, and his excellency is invaluable.

bes@Sir:6:16 @ A faithful friend is the medicine of life; and they that fear the Lord shall find him.

bes@Sir:6:19 @ Come unto her as one that ploweth and soweth, and wait for her good fruits: for thou shalt not toil much in labouring about her, but thou shalt eat of her fruits right soon.

bes@Sir:6:20 @ She is very unpleasant to the unlearned: he that is without understanding will not remain with her.

bes@Sir:6:21 @ She will lie upon him as a mighty stone of trial; and he will cast her from him ere it be long.

bes@Sir:6:25 @ Bow down thy shoulder, and bear her, and be not grieved with her bonds.

bes@Sir:6:26 @ Come unto her with thy whole heart, and keep her ways with all thy power.

bes@Sir:6:34 @ Stand in the multitude of the elders; and cleave unto him that is wise.

bes@Sir:6:37 @ Let thy mind be upon the ordinances of the Lord and meditate continually in his commandments: he shall establish thine heart, and give thee wisdom at thine owns desire.

bes@Sir:7:2 @ Depart from the unjust, and iniquity shall turn away from thee.

bes@Sir:7:4 @ Seek not of the Lord preeminence, neither of the king the seat of honour.

bes@Sir:7:6 @ Seek not to be judge, being not able to take away iniquity; lest at any time thou fear the person of the mighty, an stumblingblock in the way of thy uprightness.

bes@Sir:7:7 @ Offend not against the multitude of a city, and then thou shalt not cast thyself down among the people.

bes@Sir:7:9 @ Say not, God will look upon the multitude of my oblations, and when I offer to the most high God, he will accept it.

bes@Sir:7:11 @ Laugh no man to scorn in the bitterness of his soul: for there is one which humbleth and exalteth.

bes@Sir:7:12 @ Devise not a lie against thy brother; neither do the like to thy friend.

bes@Sir:7:14 @ Use not many words in a multitude of elders, and make not much babbling when thou prayest.

bes@Sir:7:15 @ Hate not laborious work, neither husbandry, which the most High hath ordained.

bes@Sir:7:16 @ Number not thyself among the multitude of sinners, but remember that wrath will not tarry long.

bes@Sir:7:18 @ Change not a friend for any good by no means; neither a faithful brother for the gold of Ophir.

bes@Sir:7:22 @ Hast thou cattle? have an eye to them: and if they be for thy profit, keep them with thee.

bes@Sir:7:27 @ Honour thy father with thy whole heart, and forget not the sorrows of thy mother.

bes@Sir:7:29 @ Fear the Lord with all thy soul, and reverence his priests.

bes@Sir:7:30 @ Love him that made thee with all thy strength, and forsake not his ministers.

bes@Sir:7:31 @ Fear the Lord, and honour the priest; and give him his portion, as it is commanded thee; the firstfruits, and the trespass offering, and the gift of the shoulders, and the sacrifice of sanctification, and the firstfruits of the holy things.

bes@Sir:7:33 @ A gift hath grace in the sight of every man living; and for the dead detain it not.

bes@Sir:7:34 @ Fail not to be with them that weep, and mourn with them that mourn.

bes@Sir:7:35 @ Be not slow to visit the sick: fir that shall make thee to be beloved.

bes@Sir:8:1 @ Strive not with a mighty man’ lest thou fall into his hands.

bes@Sir:8:2 @ Be not at variance with a rich man, lest he overweigh thee: for gold hath destroyed many, and perverted the hearts of kings.

bes@Sir:8:3 @ Strive not with a man that is full of tongue, and heap not wood upon his fire.

bes@Sir:8:4 @ Jest not with a rude man, lest thy ancestors be disgraced.

bes@Sir:8:8 @ Despise not the discourse of the wise, but acquaint thyself with their proverbs: for of them thou shalt learn instruction, and how to serve great men with ease.

bes@Sir:8:10 @ Kindle not the coals of a sinner, lest thou be burnt with the flame of his fire.

bes@Sir:8:11 @ Rise not up in anger at the presence of an injurious person, lest he lie in wait to entrap thee in thy words

bes@Sir:8:12 @ Lend not unto him that is mightier than thyself; for if thou lendest him, count it but lost.

bes@Sir:8:13 @ Be not surety above thy power: for if thou be surety, take care to pay it.

bes@Sir:8:14 @ Go not to law with a judge; for they will judge for him according to his honour.

bes@Sir:8:15 @ Travel not by the way with a bold fellow, lest he become grievous unto thee: for he will do according to his own will, and thou shalt perish with him through his folly.

bes@Sir:8:16 @ Strive not with an angry man, and go not with him into a solitary place: for blood is as nothing in his sight, and where there is no help, he will overthrow thee.

bes@Sir:8:17 @ Consult not with a fool; for he cannot keep counsel.

bes@Sir:8:19 @ Open not thine heart to every man, lest he requite thee with a shrewd turn.

bes@Sir:9:3 @ Meet not with an harlot, lest thou fall into her snares.

bes@Sir:9:4 @ Use not much the company of a woman that is a singer, lest thou be taken with her attempts.

bes@Sir:9:6 @ Give not thy soul unto harlots, that thou lose not thine inheritance.

bes@Sir:9:7 @ Look not round about thee in the streets of the city, neither wander thou in the solitary place thereof.

bes@Sir:9:8 @ Turn away thine eye from a beautiful woman, and look not upon another’s beauty; for many have been deceived by the beauty of a woman; for herewith love is kindled as a fire.

bes@Sir:9:9 @ Sit not at all with another man’s wife, nor sit down with her in thine arms, and spend not thy money with her at the wine; lest thine heart incline unto her, and so through thy desire thou fall into destruction.

bes@Sir:9:10 @ Forsake not an old friend; for the new is not comparable to him: a new friend is as new wine; when it is old, thou shalt drink it with pleasure.

bes@Sir:9:13 @ Keep thee far from the man that hath power to kill; so shalt thou not doubt the fear of death: and if thou come unto him, make no fault, lest he take away thy life presently: remember that thou goest in the midst of snares, and that thou walkest upon the battlements of the city.

bes@Sir:9:14 @ As near as thou canst, guess at thy neighbour, and consult with the wise.

bes@Sir:9:15 @ Let thy talk be with the wise, and all thy communication in the law of the most High.

bes@Sir:9:16 @ And let just men eat and drink with thee; and let thy glorying be in the fear of the Lord.

bes@Sir:9:18 @ A man of an ill tongue is dangerous in his city; and he that is rash in his talk shall be hated.

bes@Sir:10:2 @ As the judge of the people is himself, so are his officers; and what manner of man the ruler of the city is, such are all they that dwell therein.

bes@Sir:10:3 @ An unwise king destroyeth his people; but through the prudence of them which are in authority the city shall be inhabited.

bes@Sir:10:4 @ The power of the earth is in the hand of the Lord, and in due time he will set over it one that is profitable.

bes@Sir:10:5 @ In the hand of God is the prosperity of man: and upon the person of the scribe shall he lay his honour.

bes@Sir:10:7 @ Pride is hateful before God and man: and by both doth one commit iniquity.

bes@Sir:10:8 @ Because of unrighteous dealings, injuries, and riches got by deceit, the kingdom is translated from one people to another.

bes@Sir:10:11 @ For when a man is dead, he shall inherit creeping things, beasts, and worms.

bes@Sir:10:13 @ For pride is the beginning of sin, and he that hath it shall pour out abomination: and therefore the Lord brought upon them strange calamities, and overthrew them utterly.

bes@Sir:10:21 @ The fear of the Lord goeth before the obtaining of authority: but roughness and pride is the losing thereof.

bes@Sir:10:23 @ It is not meet to despise the poor man that hath understanding; neither is it convenient to magnify a sinful man.

bes@Sir:10:28 @ My son, glorify thy soul in meekness, and give it honour according to the dignity thereof.

bes@Sir:11:1 @ Wisdom lifteth up the head of him that is of low degree, and maketh him to sit among great men.

bes@Sir:11:2 @ Commend not a man for his beauty; neither abhor a man for his outward appearance.

bes@Sir:11:3 @ The bee is little among such as fly; but her fruit is the chief of sweet things.

bes@Sir:11:8 @ Answer not before thou hast heard the cause: neither interrupt men in the midst of their talk.

bes@Sir:11:9 @ Strive not in a matter that concerneth thee not; and sit not in judgement with sinners.

bes@Sir:11:10 @ My son, meddle not with many matters: for if thou meddle much, thou shalt not be innocent; and if thou follow after, thou shalt not obtain, neither shalt thou escape by fleeing.

bes@Sir:11:12 @ Again, there is another that is slow, and hath need of help, wanting ability, and full of poverty; yet the eye of the Lord looked upon him for good, and set him up from his low estate,

bes@Sir:11:14 @ Prosperity and adversity, life and death, poverty and riches, come of the Lord.

bes@Sir:11:16 @ Error and darkness had their beginning together with sinners: and evil shall wax old with them that glory therein.

bes@Sir:11:17 @ The gift of the Lord remaineth with the ungodly, and his favour bringeth prosperity for ever.

bes@Sir:11:19 @ Whereas he saith, I have found rest, and now will eat continually of my goods; and yet he knoweth not what time shall come upon him, and that he must leave those things to others, and die.

bes@Sir:11:21 @ Marvel not at the works of sinners; but trust in the Lord, and abide in thy labour: for it is an easy thing in the sight of the Lord on the sudden to make a poor man rich.

bes@Sir:11:23 @ Say not, What profit is there of my service? and what good things shall I have hereafter?

bes@Sir:11:25 @ In the day of prosperity there is a forgetfulness of affliction: and in the day of affliction there is no more remembrance of prosperity.

bes@Sir:11:26 @ For it is an easy thing unto the Lord in the day of death to reward a man according to his ways.

bes@Sir:11:29 @ Bring not every man into thine house: for the deceitful man hath many trains.

bes@Sir:11:31 @ For he lieth in wait, and turneth good into evil, and in things worthy praise will lay blame upon thee.

bes@Sir:11:32 @ Of a spark of fire a heap of coals is kindled: and a sinful man layeth wait for blood.

bes@Sir:12:1 @ When thou wilt do good know to whom thou doest it; so shalt thou be thanked for thy benefits.

bes@Sir:12:5 @ Do well unto him that is lowly, but give not to the ungodly: hold back thy bread, and give it not unto him, lest he overmaster thee thereby: for else thou shalt receive twice as much evil for all the good thou shalt have done unto him.

bes@Sir:12:8 @ A friend cannot be known in prosperity: and an enemy cannot be hidden in adversity.

bes@Sir:12:9 @ In the prosperity of a man enemies will be grieved: but in his adversity even a friend will depart.

bes@Sir:12:12 @ Set him not by thee, lest, when he hath overthrown thee, he stand up in thy place; neither let him sit at thy right hand, lest he seek to take thy seat, and thou at the last remember my words, and be pricked therewith.

bes@Sir:12:13 @ Who will pity a charmer that is bitten with a serpent, or any such as come nigh wild beasts?

bes@Sir:12:14 @ So one that goeth to a sinner, and is defiled with him in his sins, who will pity?

bes@Sir:12:15 @ For a while he will abide with thee, but if thou begin to fall, he will not tarry.

bes@Sir:12:16 @ An enemy speaketh sweetly with his lips, but in his heart he imagineth how to throw thee into a pit: he will weep with his eyes, but if he find opportunity, he will not be satisfied with blood.

bes@Sir:12:17 @ If adversity come upon thee, thou shalt find him there first; and though he pretend to help thee, yet shall he undermine thee.

bes@Sir:13:1 @ He that toucheth pitch shall be defiled therewith; and he that hath fellowship with a proud man shall be like unto him.

bes@Sir:13:2 @ Burden not thyself above thy power while thou livest; and have no fellowship with one that is mightier and richer than thyself: for how agree the kettle and the earthen pot together? for if the one be smitten against the other, it shall be broken.

bes@Sir:13:3 @ The rich man hath done wrong, and yet he threateneth withal: the poor is wronged, and he must intreat also.

bes@Sir:13:4 @ If thou be for his profit, he will use thee: but if thou have nothing, he will forsake thee.

bes@Sir:13:5 @ If thou have any thing, he will live with thee: yea, he will make thee bare, and will not be sorry for it.

bes@Sir:13:8 @ Beware that thou be not deceived and brought down in thy jollity.

bes@Sir:13:9 @ If thou be invited of a mighty man, withdraw thyself, and so much the more will he invite thee.

bes@Sir:13:11 @ Affect not to be made equal unto him in talk, and believe not his many words: for with much communication will he tempt thee, and smiling upon thee will get out thy secrets:

bes@Sir:13:17 @ What fellowship hath the wolf with the lamb? so the sinner with the godly.

bes@Sir:13:20 @ As the proud hate humility: so doth the rich abhor the poor.

bes@Sir:13:23 @ When a rich man speaketh, every man holdeth his tongue, and, look, what he saith, they extol it to the clouds: but if the poor man speak, they say, What fellow is this? and if he stumble, they will help to overthrow him.

bes@Sir:13:25 @ The heart of a man changeth his countenance, whether it be for good or evil: and a merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance.

bes@Sir:13:26 @ A cheerful countenance is a token of a heart that is in prosperity; and the finding out of parables is a wearisome labour of the mind.

bes@Sir:14:1 @ Blessed is the man that hath not slipped with his mouth, and is not pricked with the multitude of sins.

bes@Sir:14:3 @ Riches are not comely for a niggard: and what should an envious man do with money?

bes@Sir:14:7 @ And if he doeth good, he doeth it unwillingly; and at the last he will declare his wickedness.

bes@Sir:14:9 @ A covetous man’s eye is not satisfied with his portion; and the iniquity of the wicked drieth up his soul.

bes@Sir:14:11 @ My son, according to thy ability do good to thyself, and give the Lord his due offering.

bes@Sir:14:13 @ Do good unto thy friend before thou die, and according to thy ability stretch out thy hand and give to him.

bes@Sir:14:19 @ Every work rotteth and consumeth away, and the worker thereof shall go withal.

bes@Sir:14:20 @ Blessed is the man that doth meditate good things in wisdom, and that reasoneth of holy things by his understanding.

bes@Sir:14:22 @ Go after her as one that traceth, and lie in wait in her ways.

bes@Sir:14:25 @ He shall pitch his tent nigh unto her, and shall lodge in a lodging where good things are.

bes@Sir:15:3 @ With the bread of understanding shall she feed him, and give him the water of wisdom to drink.

bes@Sir:15:6 @ He shall find joy and a crown of gladness, and she shall cause him to inherit an everlasting name.

bes@Sir:15:9 @ Praise is not seemly in the mouth of a sinner, for it was not sent him of the Lord.

bes@Sir:15:10 @ For praise shall be uttered in wisdom, and the Lord will prosper it.

bes@Sir:15:11 @ Say not thou, It is through the Lord that I fell away: for thou oughtest not to do the things that he hateth.

bes@Sir:15:13 @ The Lord hateth all abomination; and they that fear God love it not.

bes@Sir:15:15 @ If thou wilt, to keep the commandments, and to perform acceptable faithfulness.

bes@Sir:15:20 @ He hath commanded no man to do wickedly, neither hath he given any man licence to sin.

bes@Sir:16:1 @ Desire not a multitude of unprofitable children, neither delight in ungodly sons.

bes@Sir:16:2 @ Though they multiply, rejoice not in them, except the fear of the Lord be with them.

bes@Sir:16:3 @ Trust not thou in their life, neither respect their multitude: for one that is just is better than a thousand; and better it is to die without children, than to have them that are ungodly.

bes@Sir:16:4 @ For by one that hath understanding shall the city be replenished: but the kindred of the wicked shall speedily become desolate.

bes@Sir:16:5 @ Many such things have I seen with mine eyes, and mine ear hath heard greater things than these.

bes@Sir:16:8 @ Neither spared he the place where Lot sojourned, but abhorred them for their pride.

bes@Sir:16:9 @ He pitied not the people of perdition, who were taken away in their sins:

bes@Sir:16:11 @ And if there be one stiffnecked among the people, it is marvel if he escape unpunished: for mercy and wrath are with him; he is mighty to forgive, and to pour out displeasure.

bes@Sir:16:13 @ The sinner shall not escape with his spoils: and the patience of the godly shall not be frustrate.

bes@Sir:16:16 @ His mercy is manifest to every creature; and he hath separated his light from the darkness with an adamant.

bes@Sir:16:17 @ Say not thou, I will hide myself from the Lord: shall any remember me from above? I shall not be remembered among so many people: for what is my soul among such an infinite number of creatures?

bes@Sir:16:18 @ Behold, the heaven, and the heaven of heavens, the deep, and the earth, and all that therein is, shall be moved when he shall visit.

bes@Sir:16:19 @ The mountains also and foundations of the earth be shaken with trembling, when the Lord looketh upon them.

bes@Sir:16:21 @ It is a tempest which no man can see: for the most part of his works are hid.

bes@Sir:16:24 @ My son, hearken unto me, and learn knowledge, and mark my words with thy heart.

bes@Sir:16:27 @ He garnished his works for ever, and in his hand are the chief of them unto all generations: they neither labour, nor are weary, nor cease from their works.

bes@Sir:16:29 @ After this the Lord looked upon the earth, and filled it with his blessings.

bes@Sir:16:30 @ With all manner of living things hath he covered the face thereof; and they shall return into it again.

bes@Sir:17:1 @ The Lord created man of the earth, and turned him into it again.

bes@Sir:17:3 @ He endued them with strength by themselves, and made them according to his image,

bes@Sir:17:5 @ They received the use of the five operations of the Lord, and in the sixth place he imparted them understanding, and in the seventh speech, an interpreter of the cogitations thereof.

bes@Sir:17:7 @ Withal he filled them with the knowledge of understanding, and shewed them good and evil.

bes@Sir:17:9 @ He gave them to glory in his marvellous acts for ever, that they might declare his works with understanding.

bes@Sir:17:11 @ Beside this he gave them knowledge, and the law of life for an heritage.

bes@Sir:17:12 @ He made an everlasting covenant with them, and shewed them his judgements.

bes@Sir:17:16 @ Every man from his youth is given to evil; neither could they make to themselves fleshy hearts for stony.

bes@Sir:17:18 @ Whom, being his firstborn, he nourisheth with discipline, and giving him the light of his love doth not forsake him.

bes@Sir:17:21 @ But the Lord being gracious and knowing his workmanship, neither left nor forsook them, but spared them.

bes@Sir:17:22 @ The alms of a man is as a signet with him, and he will keep the good deeds of man as the apple of the eye, and give repentance to his sons and daughters.

bes@Sir:17:26 @ Turn again to the most High, and turn away from iniquity: for he will lead thee out of darkness into the light of health, and hate thou abomination vehemently.

bes@Sir:18:3 @ Who governeth the world with the palm of his hand, and all things obey his will: for he is the King of all, by his power dividing holy things among them from profane.

bes@Sir:18:6 @ As for the wondrous works of the Lord, there may nothing be taken from them, neither may any thing be put unto them, neither can the ground of them be found out.

bes@Sir:18:10 @ As a drop of water unto the sea, and a gravelstone in comparison of the sand; so are a thousand years to the days of eternity.

bes@Sir:18:11 @ Therefore is God patient with them, and poureth forth his mercy upon them.

bes@Sir:18:15 @ My son, blemish not thy good deeds, neither use uncomfortable words when thou givest any thing.

bes@Sir:18:17 @ Lo, is not a word better than a gift? but both are with a gracious man.

bes@Sir:18:20 @ Before judgement examine thyself, and in the day of visitation thou shalt find mercy.

bes@Sir:18:29 @ They that were of understanding in sayings became also wise themselves, and poured forth exquisite parables.

bes@Sir:18:30 @ Go not after thy lusts, but refrain thyself from thine appetites.

bes@Sir:18:32 @ Take not pleasure in much good cheer, neither be tied to the expense thereof.

bes@Sir:18:33 @ Be not made a beggar by banqueting upon borrowing, when thou hast nothing in thy purse: for thou shalt lie in wait for thine own life, and be talked on.

bes@Sir:19:1 @ A labouring man that A is given to drunkenness shall not be rich: and he that contemneth small things shall fall by little and little.

bes@Sir:19:3 @ Moths and worms shall have him to heritage, and a bold man shall be taken away.

bes@Sir:19:4 @ He that is hasty to give credit is lightminded; and he that sinneth shall offend against his own soul.

bes@Sir:19:6 @ He that can rule his tongue shall live without strife; and he that hateth babbling shall have less evil.

bes@Sir:19:8 @ Whether it be to friend or foe, talk not of other men’s lives; and if thou canst without offence, reveal them not.

bes@Sir:19:10 @ If thou hast heard a word, let it die with thee; and be bold, it will not burst thee.

bes@Sir:19:11 @ A fool travaileth with a word, as a woman in labour of a child.

bes@Sir:19:12 @ As an arrow that sticketh in a man’s thigh, so is a word within a fool’s belly.

bes@Sir:19:13 @ Admonish a friend, it may be he hath not done it: and if he have done it, that he do it no more.

bes@Sir:19:14 @ Admonish thy friend, it may be he hath not said it: and if he have, that he speak it not again.

bes@Sir:19:15 @ Admonish a friend: for many times it is a slander, and believe not every tale.

bes@Sir:19:16 @ There is one that slippeth in his speech, but not from his heart; and who is he that hath not offended with his tongue?

bes@Sir:19:19 @ The knowledge of the commandments of the Lord is the doctrine of life: and they that do things that please him shall receive the fruit of the tree of immortality.

bes@Sir:19:21 @ If a servant say to his master, I will not do as it pleaseth thee; though afterward he do it, he angereth him that nourisheth him.

bes@Sir:19:22 @ The knowledge of wickedness is not wisdom, neither at any time the counsel of sinners prudence.

bes@Sir:19:25 @ There is an exquisite subtilty, and the same is unjust; and there is one that turneth aside to make judgement appear; and there is a wise man that justifieth in judgement.

bes@Sir:19:26 @ There is a wicked man that hangeth down his head sadly; but inwardly he is full of deceit,

bes@Sir:19:28 @ And if for want of power he be hindered from sinning, yet when he findeth opportunity he will do evil.

bes@Sir:19:30 @ A man’s attire, and excessive laughter, and gait, shew what he is.

bes@Sir:20:2 @ It is much better to reprove, than to be angry secretly: and he that confesseth his fault shall be preserved from hurt.

bes@Sir:20:3 @ How good is it, when thou art reproved, to shew repentance! for so shalt thou escape wilful sin.

bes@Sir:20:4 @ As is the lust of an eunuch to deflower a virgin; so is he that executeth judgement with violence.

bes@Sir:20:7 @ A wise man will hold his tongue till he see opportunity: but a babbler and a fool will regard no time.

bes@Sir:20:8 @ He that useth many words shall be abhorred; and he that taketh to himself authority therein shall be hated.

bes@Sir:20:10 @ There is a gift that shall not profit thee; and there is a gift whose recompence is double.

bes@Sir:20:12 @ There is that buyeth much for a little, and repayeth it sevenfold.

bes@Sir:20:14 @ The gift of a fool shall do thee no good when thou hast it; neither yet of the envious for his necessity: for he looketh to receive many things for one.

bes@Sir:20:15 @ He giveth little, and upbraideth much; he openeth his mouth like a crier; to day he lendeth, and to morrow will he ask it again: such an one is to be hated of God and man.

bes@Sir:20:16 @ The fool saith, I have no friends, I have no thank for all my good deeds, and they that eat my bread speak evil of me.

bes@Sir:20:17 @ How oft, and of how many shall he be laughed to scorn! for he knoweth not aright what it is to have; and it is all one unto him as if he had it not.

bes@Sir:20:18 @ To slip upon a pavement is better than to slip with the tongue: so the fall of the wicked shall come speedily.

bes@Sir:20:20 @ A wise sentence shall be rejected when it cometh out of a fool’s mouth; for he will not speak it in due season.

bes@Sir:20:24 @ A lie is a foul blot in a man, yet it is continually in the mouth of the untaught.

bes@Sir:20:25 @ A thief is better than a man that is accustomed to lie: but they both shall have destruction to heritage.

bes@Sir:20:26 @ The disposition of a liar is dishonourable, and his shame is ever with him.

bes@Sir:20:27 @ A wise man shall promote himself to honour with his words: and he that hath understanding will please great men.

bes@Sir:20:28 @ He that tilleth his land shall increase his heap: and he that pleaseth great men shall get pardon for iniquity.

bes@Sir:20:30 @ Wisdom that is hid, and treasure that is hoarded up, what profit is in them both?

bes@Sir:20:32 @ Necessary patience in seeking the Lord is better than he that leadeth his life without a guide.

bes@Sir:21:2 @ Flee from sin as from the face of a serpent: for if thou comest too near it, it will bite thee: the teeth thereof are as the teeth of a lion, slaying the souls of men.

bes@Sir:21:3 @ All iniquity is as a two edged sword, the wounds whereof cannot be healed.

bes@Sir:21:8 @ He that buildeth his house with other men’s money is like one that gathereth himself stones for the tomb of his burial.

bes@Sir:21:10 @ The way of sinners is made plain with stones, but at the end thereof is the pit of hell.

bes@Sir:21:12 @ He that is not wise will not be taught: but there is a wisdom which multiplieth bitterness.

bes@Sir:21:15 @ If a skilful man hear a wise word, he will commend it, and add unto it: but as soon as one of no understanding heareth it, it displeaseth him, and he casteth it behind his back.

bes@Sir:21:18 @ As is a house that is destroyed, so is wisdom to a fool: and the knowledge of the unwise is as talk without sense.

bes@Sir:21:20 @ A fool lifteth up his voice with laughter; but a wise man doth scarce smile a little.

bes@Sir:21:23 @ A fool will peep in at the door into the house: but he that is well nurtured will stand without.

bes@Sir:21:24 @ It is the rudeness of a man to hearken at the door: but a wise man will be grieved with the disgrace.

bes@Sir:22:2 @ A slothful man is compared to the filth of a dunghill: every man that takes it up will shake his hand.

bes@Sir:22:4 @ A wise daughter shall bring an inheritance to her husband: but she that liveth dishonestly is her father’s heaviness.

bes@Sir:22:9 @ If children live honestly, and have wherewithal, they shall cover the baseness of their parents.

bes@Sir:22:10 @ But children, being haughty, through disdain and want of nurture do stain the nobility of their kindred.

bes@Sir:22:11 @ Weep for the dead, for he hath lost the light: and weep for the fool, for he wanteth understanding: make little weeping for the dead, for he is at rest: but the life of the fool is worse than death.

bes@Sir:22:13 @ Talk not much with a fool, and go not to him that hath no understanding: beware of him, lest thou have trouble, and thou shalt never be defiled with his fooleries: depart from him, and thou shalt find rest, and never be disquieted with madness.

bes@Sir:22:15 @ Sand, and salt, and a mass of iron, is easier to bear, than a man without understanding.

bes@Sir:22:16 @ As timber girt and bound together in a building cannot be loosed with shaking: so the heart that is stablished by advised counsel shall fear at no time.

bes@Sir:22:19 @ He that pricketh the eye will make tears to fall: and he that pricketh the heart maketh it to shew her knowledge.

bes@Sir:22:23 @ Be faithful to thy neighbour in his poverty, that thou mayest rejoice in his prosperity: abide stedfast unto him in the time of his trouble, that thou mayest be heir with him in his heritage: for a mean estate is not always to be contemned: nor the rich that is foolish to be had in admiration.

bes@Sir:22:25 @ I will not be ashamed to defend a friend; neither will I hide myself from him.

bes@Sir:22:26 @ And if any evil happen unto me by him, every one that heareth it will beware of him.

bes@Sir:23:2 @ Who will set scourges over my thoughts, and the discipline of wisdom over mine heart? that they spare me not for mine ignorances, and it pass not by my sins:

bes@Sir:23:7 @ Hear, O ye children, the discipline of the mouth: he that keepeth it shall never be taken in his lips.

bes@Sir:23:9 @ Accustom not thy mouth to swearing; neither use thyself to the naming of the Holy One.

bes@Sir:23:10 @ For as a servant that is continually beaten shall not be without a blue mark: so he that sweareth and nameth God continually shall not be faultless.

bes@Sir:23:11 @ A man that useth much swearing shall be filled with iniquity, and the plague shall never depart from his house: if he shall offend, his sin shall be upon him: and if he acknowledge not his sin, he maketh a double offence: and if he swear in vain, he shall not be innocent, but his house shall be full of calamities.

bes@Sir:23:12 @ There is a word that is clothed about with death: God grant that it be not found in the heritage of Jacob; for all such things shall be far from the godly, and they shall not wallow in their sins.

bes@Sir:23:14 @ Remember thy father and thy mother, when thou sittest among great men. Be not forgetful before them, and so thou by thy custom become a fool, and wish that thou hadst not been born, and curse they day of thy nativity.

bes@Sir:23:16 @ Two sorts of men multiply sin, and the third will bring wrath: a hot mind is as a burning fire, it will never be quenched till it be consumed: a fornicator in the body of his flesh will never cease till he hath kindled a fire.

bes@Sir:23:18 @ A man that breaketh wedlock, saying thus in his heart, Who seeth me? I am compassed about with darkness, the walls cover me, and no body seeth me; what need I to fear? the most High will not remember my sins:

bes@Sir:23:21 @ This man shall be punished in the streets of the city, and where he suspecteth not he shall be taken.

bes@Sir:23:22 @ Thus shall it go also with the wife that leaveth her husband, and bringeth in an heir by another.

bes@Sir:23:24 @ She shall be brought out into the congregation, and inquisition shall be made of her children.

bes@Sir:23:25 @ Her children shall not take root, and her branches shall bring forth no fruit.

bes@Sir:23:28 @ It is great glory to follow the Lord, and to be received of him is long life.

bes@Sir:24:5 @ I alone compassed the circuit of heaven, and walked in the bottom of the deep.

bes@Sir:24:7 @ With all these I sought rest: and in whose inheritance shall I abide?

bes@Sir:24:8 @ So the Creator of all things gave me a commandment, and he that made me caused my tabernacle to rest, and said, Let thy dwelling be in Jacob, and thine inheritance in Israel.

bes@Sir:24:11 @ Likewise in the beloved city he gave me rest, and in Jerusalem was my power.

bes@Sir:24:12 @ And I took root in an honourable people, even in the portion of the Lord’s inheritance.

bes@Sir:24:17 @ As the vine brought I forth pleasant savour, and my flowers are the fruit of honour and riches.

bes@Sir:24:19 @ Come unto me, all ye that be desirous of me, and fill yourselves with my fruits.

bes@Sir:24:20 @ For my memorial is sweeter than honey, and mine inheritance than the honeycomb.

bes@Sir:24:23 @ All these things are the book of the covenant of the most high God, even the law which Moses commanded for an heritage unto the congregations of Jacob.

bes@Sir:24:25 @ He filleth all things with his wisdom, as Phison and as Tigris in the time of the new fruits.

bes@Sir:24:30 @ I also came out as a brook from a river, and as a conduit into a garden.

bes@Sir:24:33 @ I will yet pour out doctrine as prophecy, and leave it to all ages for ever.

bes@Sir:25:1 @ In three things I was beautified, and stood up beautiful both before God and men: the unity of brethren, the love of neighbours, a man and a wife that agree together.

bes@Sir:25:7 @ There be nine things which I have judged in mine heart to be happy, and the tenth I will utter with my tongue: A man that hath joy of his children; and he that liveth to see the fall of his enemy:

bes@Sir:25:8 @ Well is him that dwelleth with a wife of understanding, and that hath not slipped with his tongue, and that hath not served a man more unworthy than himself:

bes@Sir:25:11 @ But the love of the Lord passeth all things for illumination: he that holdeth it, whereto shall he be likened?

bes@Sir:25:12 @ The fear of the Lord is the beginning of his love: and faith is the beginning of cleaving unto him.

bes@Sir:25:16 @ I had rather dwell with a lion and a dragon, than to keep house with a wicked woman.

bes@Sir:25:18 @ Her husband shall sit among his neighbours; and when he heareth it shall sigh bitterly.

bes@Sir:25:19 @ All wickedness is but little to the wickedness of a woman: let the portion of a sinner fall upon her.

bes@Sir:25:25 @ Give the water no passage; neither a wicked woman liberty to gad abroad.

bes@Sir:26:4 @ Whether a man be rich or poor, if he have a good heart toward the Lord, he shall at all times rejoice with a cheerful countenance.

bes@Sir:26:5 @ There be three things that mine heart feareth; and for the fourth I was sore afraid: the slander of a city, the gathering together of an unruly multitude, and a false accusation: all these are worse than death.

bes@Sir:26:6 @ But a grief of heart and sorrow is a woman that is jealous over another woman, and a scourge of the tongue which communicateth with all.

bes@Sir:26:10 @ If thy daughter be shameless, keep her in straitly, lest she abuse herself through overmuch liberty.

bes@Sir:26:12 @ She will open her mouth, as a thirsty traveller when he hath found a fountain, and drink of every water near her: by every hedge will she sit down, and open her quiver against every arrow.

bes@Sir:26:15 @ A shamefaced and faithful woman is a double grace, and her continent mind cannot be valued.

bes@Sir:26:16 @ As the sun when it ariseth in the high heaven; so is the beauty of a good wife in the ordering of her house.

bes@Sir:26:18 @ As the golden pillars are upon the sockets of silver; so are the fair feet with a constant heart.

bes@Sir:26:20 @ When thou hast gotten a fruitful possession through all the field, sow it with thine own seed, trusting in the goodness of thy stock.

bes@Sir:26:22 @ An harlot shall be accounted as spittle; but a married woman is a tower against death to her husband.

bes@Sir:27:4 @ As when one sifteth with a sieve, the refuse remaineth; so the filth of man in his talk.

bes@Sir:27:6 @ The fruit declareth if the tree have been dressed; so is the utterance of a conceit in the heart of man.

bes@Sir:27:10 @ As the lion lieth in wait for the prey; so sin for them that work iniquity.

bes@Sir:27:11 @ The discourse of a godly man is always with wisdom; but a fool changeth as the moon.

bes@Sir:27:17 @ Love thy friend, and be faithful unto him: but if thou betrayest his secrets, follow no more after him.

bes@Sir:27:21 @ As for a wound, it may be bound up; and after reviling there may be reconcilement: but he that betrayeth secrets is without hope.

bes@Sir:27:22 @ He that winketh with the eyes worketh evil: and he that knoweth him will depart from him.

bes@Sir:27:23 @ When thou art present, he will speak sweetly, and will admire thy words: but at the last he will writhe his mouth, and slander thy sayings.

bes@Sir:27:25 @ Whoso casteth a stone on high casteth it on his own head; and a deceitful stroke shall make wounds.

bes@Sir:27:26 @ Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein: and he that setteth a trap shall be taken therein.

bes@Sir:27:27 @ He that worketh mischief, it shall fall upon him, and he shall not know whence it cometh.

bes@Sir:27:28 @ Mockery and reproach are from the proud; but vengeance, as a lion, shall lie in wait for them.

bes@Sir:28:6 @ Remember thy end, and let enmity cease; remember corruption and death, and abide in the commandments.

bes@Sir:28:10 @ As the matter of the fire is, so it burneth: and as a man’s strength is, so is his wrath; and according to his riches his anger riseth; and the stronger they are which contend, the more they will be inflamed.

bes@Sir:28:12 @ If thou blow the spark, it shall burn: if thou spit upon it, it shall be quenched: and both these come out of thy mouth.

bes@Sir:28:14 @ A backbiting tongue hath disquieted many, and driven them from nation to nation: strong cities hath it pulled down, and overthrown the houses of great men.

bes@Sir:28:15 @ A backbiting tongue hath cast out virtuous women, and deprived them of their labours.

bes@Sir:28:16 @ Whoso hearkeneth unto it shall never find rest, and never dwell quietly.

bes@Sir:28:21 @ The death thereof is an evil death, the grave were better than it.

bes@Sir:28:22 @ It shall not have rule over them that fear God, neither shall they be burned with the flame thereof.

bes@Sir:28:23 @ Such as forsake the Lord shall fall into it; and it shall burn in them, and not be quenched; it shall be sent upon them as a lion, and devour them as a leopard.

bes@Sir:28:24 @ Look that thou hedge thy possession about with thorns, and bind up thy silver and gold,

bes@Sir:28:26 @ Beware thou slide not by it, lest thou fall before him that lieth in wait.

bes@Sir:29:3 @ Keep thy word, and deal faithfully with him, and thou shalt always find the thing that is necessary for thee.

bes@Sir:29:4 @ Many, when a thing was lent them, reckoned it to be found, and put them to trouble that helped them.

bes@Sir:29:6 @ If he prevail, he shall hardly receive the half, and he will count as if he had found it: if not, he hath deprived him of his money, and he hath gotten him an enemy without cause: he payeth him with cursings and railings; and for honour he will pay him disgrace.

bes@Sir:29:8 @ Yet have thou patience with a man in poor estate, and delay not to shew him mercy.

bes@Sir:29:10 @ Lose thy money for thy brother and thy friend, and let it not rust under a stone to be lost.

bes@Sir:29:11 @ Lay up thy treasure according to the commandments of the most High, and it shall bring thee more profit than gold.

bes@Sir:29:12 @ Shut up alms in thy storehouses: and it shall deliver thee from all affliction.

bes@Sir:29:13 @ It shall fight for thee against thine enemies better than a mighty shield and strong spear.

bes@Sir:29:18 @ Suretiship hath undone many of good estate, and shaken them as a wave of the sea: mighty men hath it driven from their houses, so that they wandered among strange nations.

bes@Sir:29:19 @ A wicked man transgressing the commandments of the Lord shall fall into suretiship: and he that undertaketh and followeth other men’s business for gain shall fall into suits.

bes@Sir:29:23 @ Be it little or much, hold thee contented, that thou hear not the reproach of thy house.

bes@Sir:29:24 @ For it is a miserable life to go from house to house: for where thou art a stranger, thou darest not open thy mouth.

bes@Sir:29:25 @ Thou shalt entertain, and feast, and have no thanks: moreover thou shalt hear bitter words:

bes@Sir:30:6 @ He left behind him an avenger against his enemies, and one that shall requite kindness to his friends.

bes@Sir:30:9 @ Cocker thy child, and he shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he will bring thee to heaviness.

bes@Sir:30:10 @ Laugh not with him, lest thou have sorrow with him, and lest thou gnash thy teeth in the end.

bes@Sir:30:14 @ Better is the poor, being sound and strong of constitution, than a rich man that is afflicted in his body.

bes@Sir:30:15 @ Health and good estate of body are above all gold, and a strong body above infinite wealth.

bes@Sir:30:16 @ There is no riches above a sound body, and no joy above the joy of the heart. I awaked up last of all, as one that gathereth after the grapegatherers: by the blessing of the Lord I profited, and filled my winepress like a gatherer of grapes.

bes@Sir:30:17 @ Death is better than a bitter life or continual sickness. Consider that I laboured not for myself only, but for all them that seek learning.

bes@Sir:30:18 @ Delicates poured upon a mouth shut up are as messes of meat set upon a grave. Hear me, O ye great men of the people, and hearken with your ears, ye rulers of the congregation.

bes@Sir:30:19 @ What good doeth the offering unto an idol? for neither can it eat nor smell: so is he that is persecuted of the Lord. Give not thy son and wife, thy brother and friend, power over thee while thou livest, and give not thy goods to another: lest it repent thee, and thou intreat for the same again.

bes@Sir:30:20 @ He seeth with his eyes and groaneth, as an eunuch that embraceth a virgin and sigheth. As long as thou livest and hast breath in thee, give not thyself over to any.

bes@Sir:30:21 @ Give not over thy mind to heaviness, and afflict not thyself in thine own counsel. For better it is that thy children should seek to thee, than that thou shouldest stand to their courtesy.

bes@Sir:30:23 @ Love thine own soul, and comfort thy heart, remove sorrow far from thee: for sorrow hath killed many, and there is no profit therein. In all thy works keep to thyself the preeminence; leave not a stain in thine honour.

bes@Sir:30:24 @ Envy and wrath shorten the life, and carefulness bringeth age before the time. At the time when thou shalt end thy days, and finish thy life, distribute thine inheritance. Fodder, a wand, and burdens, are for the ass; and bread, correction, and work, for a servant.

bes@Sir:30:28 @ Set him to work, as is fit for him: if he be not obedient, put on more heavy fetters.

bes@Sir:30:29 @ But be not excessive toward any; and without discretion do nothing.

bes@Sir:30:30 @ If thou have a servant, let him be unto thee as thyself, because thou hast bought him with a price.

bes@Sir:31:6 @ If they be not sent from the most High in thy visitation, set not thy heart upon them.

bes@Sir:31:8 @ The law shall be found perfect without lies: and wisdom is perfection to a faithful mouth.

bes@Sir:31:13 @ The spirit of those that fear the Lord shall live; for their hope is in him that saveth them.

bes@Sir:31:19 @ The most High is not pleased with the offerings of the wicked; neither is he pacified for sin by the multitude of sacrifices.

bes@Sir:31:23 @ When one buildeth, and another pulleth down, what profit have they then but labour?

bes@Sir:31:25 @ He that washeth himself after the touching of a dead body, if he touch it again, what availeth his washing?

bes@Sir:31:26 @ So is it with a man that fasteth for his sins, and goeth again, and doeth the same: who will hear his prayer? or what doth his humbling profit him?

bes@Sir:32:2 @ He that requiteth a good turn offereth fine flour; and he that giveth alms sacrificeth praise.

bes@Sir:32:3 @ To depart from wickedness is a thing pleasing to the Lord; and to forsake unrighteousness is a propitiation.

bes@Sir:32:8 @ Give the Lord his honour with a good eye, and diminish not the firstfruits of thine hands.

bes@Sir:32:9 @ In all thy gifts shew a cheerful countenance, and dedicate thy tithes with gladness.

bes@Sir:32:10 @ Give unto the most High according as he hath enriched thee; and as thou hast gotten, give with a cheerful eye.

bes@Sir:32:12 @ Do not think to corrupt with gifts; for such he will not receive: and trust not to unrighteous sacrifices; for the Lord is judge, and with him is no respect of persons.

bes@Sir:32:16 @ He that serveth the Lord shall be accepted with favour, and his prayer shall reach unto the clouds.

bes@Sir:32:17 @ The prayer of the humble pierceth the clouds: and till it come nigh, he will not be comforted; and will not depart, till the most High shall behold to judge righteously, and execute judgement.

bes@Sir:32:18 @ For the Lord will not be slack, neither will the Mighty be patient toward them, till he have smitten in sunder the loins of the unmerciful, and repayed vengeance to the heathen; till he have taken away the multitude of the proud, and broken the sceptre of the unrighteous;

bes@Sir:33:10 @ Smite in sunder the heads of the rulers of the heathen, that say, There is none other but we.

bes@Sir:33:11 @ Gather all the tribes of Jacob together, and inherit thou them, as from the beginning.

bes@Sir:34:3 @ The rich hath great labour in gathering riches together; and when he resteth, he is filled with his delicates.

bes@Sir:34:7 @ It is a stumblingblock unto them that sacrifice unto it, and every fool shall be taken therewith.

bes@Sir:34:8 @ Blessed is the rich that is found without blemish, and hath not gone after gold.

bes@Sir:34:10 @ Who hath been tried thereby, and found perfect? then let him glory. Who might offend, and hath not offended? or done evil, and hath not done it?

bes@Sir:34:12 @ If thou sit at a bountiful table, be not greedy upon it, and say not, There is much meat on it.

bes@Sir:34:13 @ Remember that a wicked eye is an evil thing: and what is created more wicked than an eye? therefore it weepeth upon every occasion.

bes@Sir:34:14 @ Stretch not thine hand whithersoever it looketh, and thrust it not with him into the dish.

bes@Sir:34:16 @ Eat as it becometh a man, those things which are set before thee; and devour note, lest thou be hated.

bes@Sir:34:18 @ When thou sittest among many, reach not thine hand out first of all.

bes@Sir:34:19 @ A very little is sufficient for a man well nurtured, and he fetcheth not his wind short upon his bed.

bes@Sir:34:20 @ Sound sleep cometh of moderate eating: he riseth early, and his wits are with him: but the pain of watching, and choler, and pangs of the belly, are with an unsatiable man.

bes@Sir:34:21 @ And if thou hast been forced to eat, arise, go forth, vomit, and thou shalt have rest.

bes@Sir:34:24 @ But against him that is a niggard of his meat the whole city shall murmur; and the testimonies of his niggardness shall not be doubted of.

bes@Sir:34:27 @ Wine is as good as life to a man, if it be drunk moderately: what life is then to a man that is without wine? for it was made to make men glad.

bes@Sir:34:29 @ But wine drunken with excess maketh bitterness of the mind, with brawling and quarrelling.

bes@Sir:34:30 @ Drunkenness increaseth the rage of a fool till he offend: it diminisheth strength, and maketh wounds.

bes@Sir:34:31 @ Rebuke not thy neighbour at the wine, and despise him not in his mirth: give him no despiteful words, and press not upon him with urging him to drink.

bes@Sir:35:1 @ If thou be made the master of a feast, lift not thyself up, but be among them as one of the rest; take diligent care for them, and so sit down.

bes@Sir:35:2 @ And when thou hast done all thy office, take thy place, that thou mayest be merry with them, and receive a crown for thy well ordering of the feast.

bes@Sir:35:3 @ Speak, thou that art the elder, for it becometh thee, but with sound judgement; and hinder not musick.

bes@Sir:35:9 @ If thou be among great men, make not thyself equal with them; and when ancient men are in place, use not many words.

bes@Sir:35:11 @ Rise up betimes, and be not the last; but get thee home without delay.

bes@Sir:35:13 @ And for these things bless him that made thee, and hath replenished thee with his good things.

bes@Sir:35:15 @ He that seeketh the law shall be filled therewith: but the hypocrite will be offended thereat.

bes@Sir:35:18 @ A man of counsel will be considerate; but a strange and proud man is not daunted with fear, even when of himself he hath done without counsel.

bes@Sir:35:19 @ Do nothing without advice; and when thou hast once done, repent not.

bes@Sir:36:2 @ A wise man hateth not the law; but he that is an hypocrite therein is as a ship in a storm.

bes@Sir:36:3 @ A man of understanding trusteth in the law; and the law is faithful unto him, as an oracle.

bes@Sir:37:10 @ Consult not with one that suspecteth thee: and hide thy counsel from such as envy thee.

bes@Sir:37:11 @ Neither consult with a woman touching her of whom she is jealous; neither with a coward in matters of war; nor with a merchant concerning exchange; nor with a buyer of selling; nor with an envious man of thankfulness; nor with an unmerciful man touching kindness; nor with the slothful for any work; nor with an hireling for a year of finishing work; nor with an idle servant of much business: hearken not unto these in any matter of counsel.

bes@Sir:37:12 @ But be continually with a godly man, whom thou knowest to keep the commandments of the Lord, whose, mind is according to thy mind, and will sorrow with thee, if thou shalt miscarry.

bes@Sir:37:13 @ And let the counsel of thine own heart stand: for there is no man more faithful unto thee than it.

bes@Sir:39:23 @ As he hath turned the waters into saltness: so shall the heathen inherit his wrath.

bes@Sir:39:28 @ There be spirits that are created for vengeance, which in their fury lay on sore strokes; in the time of destruction they pour out their force, and appease the wrath of him that made them.

bes@Sir:40:22 @ Thine eye desireth favour and beauty: but more than both corn while it is green.

bes@Sir:40:23 @ A friend and companion never meet amiss: but above both is a wife with her husband.

bes@Bar:6:12 @ Yet cannot these gods save themselves from rust and moth, though they be covered with purple raiment.

bes@Bar:6:17 @ For like as a vessel that a man useth is nothing worth when it is broken; even so it is with their gods: when they be set up in the temple, their eyes be full of dust through the feet of them that come in.

bes@Bar:6:18 @ And as the doors are made sure on every side upon him that offendeth the king, as being committed to suffer death: even so the priests make fast their temples with doors, with locks, and bars, lest their gods be spoiled with robbers.

bes@Bar:6:20 @ They are as one of the beams of the temple, yet they say their hearts are gnawed upon by things creeping out of the earth; and when they eat them and their clothes, they feel it not.

bes@Bar:6:22 @ Upon their bodies and heads sit bats, swallows, and birds, and the cats also.

bes@Bar:6:24 @ Notwithstanding the gold that is about them to make them beautiful, except they wipe off the rust, they will not shine: for neither when they were molten did they feel it.

bes@Bar:6:27 @ They also that serve them are ashamed: for if they fall to the ground at any time, they cannot rise up again of themselves: neither, if one set them upright, can they move of themselves: neither, if they be bowed down, can they make themselves straight: but they set gifts before them as unto dead men.

bes@Bar:6:28 @ As for the things that are sacrificed unto them, their priests sell and abuse; in like manner their wives lay up part thereof in salt; but unto the poor and impotent they give nothing of it.

bes@Bar:6:31 @ And the priests sit in their temples, having their clothes rent, and their heads and beards shaven, and nothing upon their heads.

bes@Bar:6:34 @ Whether it be evil that one doeth unto them, or good, they are not able to recompense it: they can neither set up a king, nor put him down.

bes@Bar:6:35 @ In like manner, they can neither give riches nor money: though a man make a vow unto them, and keep it not, they will not require it.

bes@Bar:6:36 @ They can save no man from death, neither deliver the weak from the mighty.

bes@Bar:6:39 @ Their gods of wood, and which are overlaid with gold and silver, are like the stones that be hewn out of the mountain: they that worship them shall be confounded.

bes@Bar:6:43 @ The women also with cords about them, sitting in the ways, burn bran for perfume: but if any of them, drawn by some that passeth by, lie with him, she reproacheth her fellow, that she was not thought as worthy as herself, nor her cord broken.

bes@Bar:6:44 @ Whatsoever is done among them is false: how may it then be thought or said that they are gods?

bes@Bar:6:45 @ They are made of carpenters and goldsmiths: they can be nothing else than the workmen will have them to be.

bes@Bar:6:48 @ For when there cometh any war or plague upon them, the priests consult with themselves, where they may be hidden with them.

bes@Bar:6:49 @ How then cannot men perceive that they be no gods, which can neither save themselves from war, nor from plague?

bes@Bar:6:50 @ For seeing they be but of wood, and overlaid with silver and gold, it shall be known hereafter that they are false:

bes@Bar:6:51 @ And it shall manifestly appear to all nations and kings that they are no gods, but the works of men’s hands, and that there is no work of God in them.

bes@Bar:6:53 @ For neither can they set up a king in the land, nor give rain unto men.

bes@Bar:6:54 @ Neither can they judge their own cause, nor redress a wrong, being unable: for they are as crows between heaven and earth.

bes@Bar:6:55 @ Whereupon when fire falleth upon the house of gods of wood, or laid over with gold or silver, their priests will flee away, and escape; but they themselves shall be burned asunder like beams.

bes@Bar:6:56 @ Moreover they cannot withstand any king or enemies: how can it then be thought or said that they be gods?

bes@Bar:6:57 @ Neither are those gods of wood, and laid over with silver or gold, able to escape either from thieves or robbers.

bes@Bar:6:58 @ Whose gold, and silver, and garments wherewith they are clothed, they that are strong take, and go away withal: neither are they able to help themselves.

bes@Bar:6:59 @ Therefore it is better to be a king that sheweth his power, or else a profitable vessel in an house, which the owner shall have use of, than such false gods; or to be a door in an house, to keep such things therein, than such false gods. or a pillar of wood in a palace, than such false gods.

bes@Bar:6:61 @ In like manner the lightning when it breaketh forth is easy to be seen; and after the same manner the wind bloweth in every country.

bes@Bar:6:63 @ And the fire sent from above to consume hills and woods doeth as it is commanded: but these are like unto them neither in shew nor power.

bes@Bar:6:64 @ Wherefore it is neither to be supposed nor said that they are gods, seeing, they are able neither to judge causes, nor to do good unto men.

bes@Bar:6:66 @ For they can neither curse nor bless kings:

bes@Bar:6:67 @ Neither can they shew signs in the heavens among the heathen, nor shine as the sun, nor give light as the moon.

bes@Bar:6:69 @ It is then by no means manifest unto us that they are gods: therefore fear them not.

bes@Bar:6:70 @ For as a scarecrow in a garden of cucumbers keepeth nothing: so are their gods of wood, and laid over with silver and gold.

bes@Bar:6:71 @ And likewise their gods of wood, and laid over with silver and gold, are like to a white thorn in an orchard, that every bird sitteth upon; as also to a dead body, that is east into the dark.

bes@1Macc:1:1 @ And it happened, after that Alexander son of Philip, the Macedonian, who came out of the land of Chettiim, had smitten Darius king of the Persians and Medes, that he reigned in his stead, the first over Greece,

bes@1Macc:1:6 @ Wherefore he called his servants, such as were honourable, and had been brought up with him from his youth, and parted his kingdom among them, while he was yet alive.

bes@1Macc:1:11 @ In those days went there out of Israel wicked men, who persuaded many, saying, Let us go and make a covenant with the heathen that are round about us: for since we departed from them we have had much sorrow.

bes@1Macc:1:17 @ Wherefore he entered into Egypt with a great multitude, with chariots, and elephants, and horsemen, and a great navy,

bes@1Macc:1:19 @ Thus they got the strong cities in the land of Egypt and he took the spoils thereof.

bes@1Macc:1:20 @ And after that Antiochus had smitten Egypt, he returned again in the hundred forty and third year, and went up against Israel and Jerusalem with a great multitude,

bes@1Macc:1:28 @ The land also was moved for the inhabitants thereof, and all the house of Jacob was covered with confusion.

bes@1Macc:1:29 @ And after two years fully expired the king sent his chief collector of tribute unto the cities of Juda, who came unto Jerusalem with a great multitude,

bes@1Macc:1:30 @ And spake peaceable words unto them, but all was deceit: for when they had given him credence, he fell suddenly upon the city, and smote it very sore, and destroyed much people of Israel.

bes@1Macc:1:31 @ And when he had taken the spoils of the city, he set it on fire, and pulled down the houses and walls thereof on every side.

bes@1Macc:1:33 @ Then builded they the city of David with a great and strong wall, and with mighty towers, and made it a strong hold for them.

bes@1Macc:1:35 @ They stored it also with armour and victuals, and when they had gathered together the spoils of Jerusalem, they laid them up there, and so they became a sore snare:

bes@1Macc:1:36 @ For it was a place to lie in wait against the sanctuary, and an evil adversary to Israel.

bes@1Macc:1:37 @ Thus they shed innocent blood on every side of the sanctuary, and defiled it:

bes@1Macc:1:38 @ Insomuch that the inhabitants of Jerusalem fled because of them: whereupon the city was made an habitation of strangers, and became strange to those that were born in her; and her own children left her.

bes@1Macc:1:43 @ Yea, many also of the Israelites consented to his religion, and sacrificed unto idols, and profaned the sabbath.

bes@1Macc:1:44 @ For the king had sent letters by messengers unto Jerusalem and the cities of Juda that they should follow the strange laws of the land,

bes@1Macc:1:48 @ That they should also leave their children uncircumcised, and make their souls abominable with all manner of uncleanness and profanation:

bes@1Macc:1:51 @ In the selfsame manner wrote he to his whole kingdom, and appointed overseers over all the people, commanding the cities of Juda to sacrifice, city by city.

bes@1Macc:1:52 @ Then many of the people were gathered unto them, to wit every one that forsook the law; and so they committed evils in the land;

bes@1Macc:1:53 @ And drove the Israelites into secret places, even wheresoever they could flee for succour.

bes@1Macc:1:54 @ Now the fifteenth day of the month Casleu, in the hundred forty and fifth year, they set up the abomination of desolation upon the altar, and builded idol altars throughout the cities of Juda on every side;

bes@1Macc:1:56 @ And when they had rent in pieces the books of the law which they found, they burnt them with fire.

bes@1Macc:1:57 @ And whosoever was found with any the book of the testament, or if any committed to the law, the king’s commandment was, that they should put him to death.

bes@1Macc:1:58 @ Thus did they by their authority unto the Israelites every month, to as many as were found in the cities.

bes@1Macc:1:62 @ Howbeit many in Israel were fully resolved and confirmed in themselves not to eat any unclean thing.

bes@1Macc:1:63 @ Wherefore the rather to die, that they might not be defiled with meats, and that they might not profane the holy covenant: so then they died.

bes@1Macc:2:6 @ And when he saw the blasphemies that were committed in Juda and Jerusalem,

bes@1Macc:2:7 @ He said, Woe is me! wherefore was I born to see this misery of my people, and of the holy city, and to dwell there, when it was delivered into the hand of the enemy, and the sanctuary into the hand of strangers?

bes@1Macc:2:8 @ Her temple is become as a man without glory.

bes@1Macc:2:9 @ Her glorious vessels are carried away into captivity, her infants are slain in the streets, her young men with the sword of the enemy.

bes@1Macc:2:12 @ And, behold, our sanctuary, even our beauty and our glory, is laid waste, and the Gentiles have profaned it.

bes@1Macc:2:15 @ In the mean while the king’s officers, such as compelled the people to revolt, came into the city Modin, to make them sacrifice.

bes@1Macc:2:17 @ Then answered the king’s officers, and said to Mattathias on this wise, Thou art a ruler, and an honourable and great man in this city, and strengthened with sons and brethren:

bes@1Macc:2:18 @ Now therefore come thou first, and fulfil the king’s commandment, like as all the heathen have done, yea, and the men of Juda also, and such as remain at Jerusalem: so shalt thou and thy house be in the number of the king’s friends, and thou and thy children shall be honoured with silver and gold, and many rewards.

bes@1Macc:2:19 @ Then Mattathias answered and spake with a loud voice, Though all the nations that are under the king’s dominion obey him, and fall away every one from the religion of their fathers, and give consent to his commandments:

bes@1Macc:2:22 @ We will not hearken to the king’s words, to go from our religion, either on the right hand, or the left.

bes@1Macc:2:24 @ Which thing when Mattathias saw, he was inflamed with zeal, and his reins trembled, neither could he forbear to shew his anger according to judgement: wherefore he ran, and slew him upon the altar.

bes@1Macc:2:27 @ And Mattathias cried throughout the city with a loud voice, saying, Whosoever is zealous of the law, and maintaineth the covenant, let him follow me.

bes@1Macc:2:28 @ So he and his sons fled into the mountains, and left all that ever they had in the city.

bes@1Macc:2:31 @ Now when it was told the king’s servants, and the host that was at Jerusalem, in the city of David, that certain men, who had broken the king’s commandment, were gone down into the secret places in the wilderness,

bes@1Macc:2:33 @ And they said unto them, Let that which ye have done hitherto suffice; come forth, and do according to the commandment of the king, and ye shall live.

bes@1Macc:2:34 @ But they said, We will not come forth, neither will we do the king’s commandment, to profane the sabbath day.

bes@1Macc:2:35 @ So then they gave them the battle with all speed.

bes@1Macc:2:36 @ Howbeit they answered them not, neither cast they a stone at them, nor stopped the places where they lay hid;

bes@1Macc:2:38 @ So they rose up against them in battle on the sabbath, and they slew them, with their wives and children and their cattle, to the number of a thousand people.

bes@1Macc:2:41 @ At that time therefore they decreed, saying, Whosoever shall come to make battle with us on the sabbath day, we will fight against him; neither will we die all, as our brethren that were murdered in the secret places.

bes@1Macc:2:46 @ And what children soever they found within the coast of Israel uncircumcised, those they circumcised valiantly.

bes@1Macc:2:48 @ So they recovered the law out of the hand of the Gentiles, and out of the hand of kings, neither suffered they the sinner to triumph.

bes@1Macc:2:52 @ Was not Abraham found faithful in temptation, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness?

bes@1Macc:2:56 @ Caleb for bearing witness before the congregation received the heritage of the land.

bes@1Macc:2:64 @ Wherefore, ye my sons, be valiant and shew yourselves men in the behalf of the law; for by it shall ye obtain glory.

bes@1Macc:3:2 @ And all his brethren helped him, and so did all they that held with his father, and they fought with cheerfulness the battle of Israel.

bes@1Macc:3:3 @ So he gat his people great honour, and put on a breastplate as a giant, and girt his warlike harness about him, and he made battles, protecting the host with his sword.

bes@1Macc:3:6 @ Wherefore the wicked shrunk for fear of him, and all the workers of iniquity were troubled, because salvation prospered in his hand.

bes@1Macc:3:7 @ He grieved also many kings, and made Jacob glad with his acts, and his memorial is blessed for ever.

bes@1Macc:3:8 @ Moreover he went through the cities of Juda, destroying the ungodly out of them, and turning away wrath from Israel:

bes@1Macc:3:12 @ Wherefore Judas took their spoils, and Apollonius’ sword also, and therewith he fought all his life long.

bes@1Macc:3:13 @ Now when Seron, a prince of the army of Syria, heard say that Judas had gathered unto him a multitude and company of the faithful to go out with him to war;

bes@1Macc:3:14 @ He said, I will get me a name and honour in the kingdom; for I will go fight with Judas and them that are with him, who despise the king’s commandment.

bes@1Macc:3:15 @ So he made him ready to go up, and there went with him a mighty host of the ungodly to help him, and to be avenged of the children of Israel.

bes@1Macc:3:16 @ And when he came near to the going up of Bethhoron, Judas went forth to meet him with a small company:

bes@1Macc:3:17 @ Who, when they saw the host coming to meet them, said unto Judas, How shall we be able, being so few, to fight against so great a multitude and so strong, seeing we are ready to faint with fasting all this day?

bes@1Macc:3:18 @ Unto whom Judas answered, It is no hard matter for many to be shut up in the hands of a few; and with the God of heaven it is all one, to deliver with a great multitude, or a small company:

bes@1Macc:3:19 @ For the victory of battle standeth not in the multitude of an host; but strength cometh from heaven.

bes@1Macc:3:20 @ They come against us in much pride and iniquity to destroy us, and our wives and children, and to spoil us:

bes@1Macc:3:35 @ To wit, that he should send an army against them, to destroy and root out the strength of Israel, and the remnant of Jerusalem, and to take away their memorial from that place;

bes@1Macc:3:37 @ So the king took the half of the forces that remained, and departed from Antioch, his royal city, the hundred forty and seventh year; and having passed the river Euphrates, he went through the high countries.

bes@1Macc:3:39 @ And with them he sent forty thousand footmen, and seven thousand horsemen, to go into the land of Juda, and to destroy it, as the king commanded.

bes@1Macc:3:40 @ So they went forth with all their power, and came and pitched by Emmaus in the plain country.

bes@1Macc:3:41 @ And the merchants of the country, hearing the fame of them, took silver and gold very much, with servants, and came into the camp to buy the children of Israel for slaves: a power also of Syria and of the land of the Philistines joined themselves unto them.

bes@1Macc:3:45 @ Now Jerusalem lay void as a wilderness, there was none of her children that went in or out: the sanctuary also was trodden down, and aliens kept the strong hold; the heathen had their habitation in that place; and joy was taken from Jacob, and the pipe with the harp ceased.

bes@1Macc:3:46 @ Wherefore the Israelites assembled themselves together, and came to Maspha, over against Jerusalem; for in Maspha was the place where they prayed aforetime in Israel.

bes@1Macc:3:49 @ They brought also the priests’ garments, and the firstfruits, and the tithes: and the Nazarites they stirred up, who had accomplished their days.

bes@1Macc:3:50 @ Then cried they with a loud voice toward heaven, saying, What shall we do with these, and whither shall we carry them away?

bes@1Macc:3:54 @ Then sounded they with trumpets, and cried with a loud voice.

bes@1Macc:3:57 @ So the camp removed, and pitched upon the south side of Emmaus.

bes@1Macc:3:58 @ And Judas said, arm yourselves, and be valiant men, and see that ye be in readiness against the morning, that ye may fight with these nations, that are assembled together against us to destroy us and our sanctuary:

bes@1Macc:3:59 @ For it is better for us to die in battle, than to behold the calamities of our people and our sanctuary.

bes@1Macc:4:2 @ To the end he might rush in upon the camp of the Jews, and smite them suddenly. And the men of the fortress were his guides.

bes@1Macc:4:3 @ Now when Judas heard thereof he himself removed, and the valiant men with him, that he might smite the king’s army which was at Emmaus,

bes@1Macc:4:6 @ But as soon as it was day, Judas shewed himself in the plain with three thousand men, who nevertheless had neither armour nor swords to their minds.

bes@1Macc:4:7 @ And they saw the camp of the heathen, that it was strong and well harnessed, and compassed round about with horsemen; and these were expert of war.

bes@1Macc:4:8 @ Then said Judas to the men that were with him, Fear ye not their multitude, neither be ye afraid of their assault.

bes@1Macc:4:9 @ Remember how our fathers were delivered in the Red sea, when Pharaoh pursued them with an army.

bes@1Macc:4:13 @ Wherefore they went out of the camp to battle; but they that were with Judas sounded their trumpets.

bes@1Macc:4:14 @ So they joined battle, and the heathen being discomfited fled into the plain.

bes@1Macc:4:15 @ Howbeit all the hindmost of them were slain with the sword: for they pursued them unto Gazera, and unto the plains of Idumea, and Azotus, and Jamnia, so that there were slain of them upon a three thousand men.

bes@1Macc:4:16 @ This done, Judas returned again with his host from pursuing them,

bes@1Macc:4:24 @ After this they went home, and sung a song of thanksgiving, and praised the Lord in heaven: because it is good, because his mercy endureth forever.

bes@1Macc:4:27 @ Who, when he heard thereof, was confounded and discouraged, because neither such things as he would were done unto Israel, nor such things as the king commanded him were come to pass.

bes@1Macc:4:29 @ So they came into Idumea, and pitched their tents at Bethsura, and Judas met them with ten thousand men.

bes@1Macc:4:33 @ Cast them down with the sword of them that love thee, and let all those that know thy name praise thee with thanksgiving.

bes@1Macc:4:35 @ Now when Lysias saw his army put to flight, and the manliness of Judas’ soldiers, and how they were ready either to live or die valiantly, he went into Antiochia, and gathered together a company of strangers, and having made his army greater than it was, he purposed to come again into Judea.

bes@1Macc:4:36 @ Then said Judas and his brethren, Behold, our enemies are discomfited: let us go up to cleanse and dedicate the sanctuary.

bes@1Macc:4:40 @ And fell down flat to the ground upon their faces, and blew an alarm with the trumpets, and cried toward heaven.

bes@1Macc:4:44 @ And when as they consulted what to do with the altar of burnt offerings, which was profaned;

bes@1Macc:4:45 @ They thought it best to pull it down, lest it should be a reproach to them, because the heathen had defiled it: wherefore they pulled it down,

bes@1Macc:4:46 @ And laid up the stones in the mountain of the temple in a convenient place, until there should come a prophet to shew what should be done with them.

bes@1Macc:4:48 @ And made up the sanctuary, and the things that were within the temple, and hallowed the courts.

bes@1Macc:4:54 @ Look, at what time and what day the heathen had profaned it, even in that was it dedicated with songs, and citherns, and harps, and cymbals.

bes@1Macc:4:56 @ And so they kept the dedication of the altar eight days and offered burnt offerings with gladness, and sacrificed the sacrifice of deliverance and praise.

bes@1Macc:4:57 @ They decked also the forefront of the temple with crowns of gold, and with shields; and the gates and the chambers they renewed, and hanged doors upon them.

bes@1Macc:4:59 @ Moreover Judas and his brethren with the whole congregation of Israel ordained, that the days of the dedication of the altar should be kept in their season from year to year by the space of eight days, from the five and twentieth day of the month Casleu, with mirth and gladness.

bes@1Macc:4:60 @ At that time also they builded up the mount Sion with high walls and strong towers round about, lest the Gentiles should come and tread it down as they had done before.

bes@1Macc:4:61 @ And they set there a garrison to keep it, and fortified Bethsura to preserve it; that the people might have a defence against Idumea.

bes@1Macc:5:1 @ Now when the nations round about heard that the altar was built and the sanctuary renewed as before, it displeased them very much.

bes@1Macc:5:4 @ Also he remembered the injury of the children of Bean, who had been a snare and an offence unto the people, in that they lay in wait for them in the ways.

bes@1Macc:5:5 @ He shut them up therefore in the towers, and encamped against them, and destroyed them utterly, and burned the towers of that place with fire, and all that were therein.

bes@1Macc:5:6 @ Afterward he passed over to the children of Ammon, where he found a mighty power, and much people, with Timotheus their captain.

bes@1Macc:5:7 @ So he fought many battles with them, till at length they were discomfited before him; and he smote them.

bes@1Macc:5:8 @ And when he had taken Jazar, with the towns belonging thereto, he returned into Judea.

bes@1Macc:5:9 @ Then the heathen that were at Galaad assembled themselves together against the Israelites that were in their quarters, to destroy them; but they fled to the fortress of Dathema.

bes@1Macc:5:14 @ While these letters were yet reading, behold, there came other messengers from Galilee with their clothes rent, who reported on this wise,

bes@1Macc:5:18 @ So he left Joseph the son of Zacharias, and Azarias, captains of the people, with the remnant of the host in Judea to keep it.

bes@1Macc:5:21 @ Then went Simon into Galilee, where he fought many battles with the heathen, so that the heathen were discomfited by him.

bes@1Macc:5:23 @ And those that were in Galilee, and in Arbattis, with their wives and their children, and all that they had, took he away with him, and brought them into Judea with great joy.

bes@1Macc:5:25 @ Where they met with the Nabathites, who came unto them in a peaceable manner, and told them every thing that had happened to their brethren in the land of Galaad:

bes@1Macc:5:26 @ And how that many of them were shut up in Bosora, and Bosor, and Alema, Casphor, Maked, and Carnaim; all these cities are strong and great:

bes@1Macc:5:27 @ And that they were shut up in the rest of the cities of the country of Galaad, and that against to morrow they had appointed to bring their host against the forts, and to take them, and to destroy them all in one day.

bes@1Macc:5:28 @ Hereupon Judas and his host turned suddenly by the way of the wilderness unto Bosora; and when he had won the city, he slew all the males with the edge of the sword, and took all their spoils, and burned the city with fire,

bes@1Macc:5:31 @ When Judas therefore saw that the battle was begun, and that the cry of the city went up to heaven, with trumpets, and a great sound,

bes@1Macc:5:33 @ So he went forth behind them in three companies, who sounded their trumpets, and cried with prayer.

bes@1Macc:5:34 @ Then the host of Timotheus, knowing that it was Maccabeus, fled from him: wherefore he smote them with a great slaughter; so that there were killed of them that day about eight thousand men.

bes@1Macc:5:35 @ This done, Judas turned aside to Maspha; and after he had assaulted it he took and slew all the males therein, and received the spoils thereof and burnt it with fire.

bes@1Macc:5:36 @ From thence went he, and took Casphon, Maged, Bosor, and the other cities of the country of Galaad.

bes@1Macc:5:39 @ He hath also hired the Arabians to help them and they have pitched their tents beyond the brook, ready to come and fight against thee. Upon this Judas went to meet them.

bes@1Macc:5:40 @ Then Timotheus said unto the captains of his host, When Judas and his host come near the brook, if he pass over first unto us, we shall not be able to withstand him; for he will mightily prevail against us:

bes@1Macc:5:43 @ So he went first over unto them, and all the people after him: then all the heathen, being discomfited before him, cast away their weapons, and fled unto the temple that was at Carnaim.

bes@1Macc:5:44 @ But they took the city, and burned the temple with all that were therein. Thus was Carnaim subdued, neither could they stand any longer before Judas.

bes@1Macc:5:45 @ Then Judas gathered together all the Israelites that were in the country of Galaad, from the least unto the greatest, even their wives, and their children, and their stuff, a very great host, to the end they might come into the land of Judea.

bes@1Macc:5:46 @ Now when they came unto Ephron, (this was a great city in the way as they should go, very well fortified) they could not turn from it, either on the right hand or the left, but must needs pass through the midst of it.

bes@1Macc:5:47 @ Then they of the city shut them out, and stopped up the gates with stones.

bes@1Macc:5:48 @ Whereupon Judas sent unto them in peaceable manner, saying, Let us pass through your land to go into our own country, and none shall do you any hurt; we will only pass through on foot: howbeit they would not open unto him.

bes@1Macc:5:49 @ Wherefore Judas commanded a proclamation to be made throughout the host, that every man should pitch his tent in the place where he was.

bes@1Macc:5:50 @ So the soldiers pitched, and assaulted the city all that day and all that night, till at the length the city was delivered into his hands:

bes@1Macc:5:51 @ Who then slew all the males with the edge of the sword, and rased the city, and took the spoils thereof, and passed through the city over them that were slain.

bes@1Macc:5:54 @ So they went up to mount Sion with joy and gladness, where they offered burnt offerings, because not one of them were slain until they had returned in peace.

bes@1Macc:5:58 @ So when they had given charge unto the garrison that was with them, they went toward Jamnia.

bes@1Macc:5:59 @ Then came Gorgias and his men out of the city to fight against them.

bes@1Macc:5:60 @ And so it was, that Joseph and Azarias were put to flight, and pursued unto the borders of Judea: and there were slain that day of the people of Israel about two thousand men.

bes@1Macc:5:63 @ Howbeit the man Judas and his brethren were greatly renowned in the sight of all Israel, and of all the heathen, wheresoever their name was heard of;

bes@1Macc:5:64 @ Insomuch as the people assembled unto them with joyful acclamations.

bes@1Macc:5:65 @ Afterward went Judas forth with his brethren, and fought against the children of Esau in the land toward the south, where he smote Hebron, and the towns thereof, and pulled down the fortress of it, and burned the towers thereof round about.

bes@1Macc:5:68 @ So Judas turned to Azotus in the land of the Philistines, and when he had pulled down their altars, and burned their carved images with fire, and spoiled their cities, he returned into the land of Judea.

bes@1Macc:6:1 @ About that time king Antiochus travelling through the high countries heard say, that Elymais in the country of Persia was a city greatly renowned for riches, silver, and gold;

bes@1Macc:6:2 @ And that there was in it a very rich temple, wherein were coverings of gold, and breastplates, and shields, which Alexander, son of Philip, the Macedonian king, who reigned first among the Grecians, had left there.

bes@1Macc:6:3 @ Wherefore he came and sought to take the city, and to spoil it; but he was not able, because they of the city, having had warning thereof,

bes@1Macc:6:4 @ Rose up against him in battle: so he fled, and departed thence with great heaviness, and returned to Babylon.

bes@1Macc:6:6 @ And that Lysias, who went forth first with a great power was driven away of the Jews; and that they were made strong by the armour, and power, and store of spoils, which they had gotten of the armies, whom they had destroyed:

bes@1Macc:6:7 @ Also that they had pulled down the abomination, which he had set up upon the altar in Jerusalem, and that they had compassed about the sanctuary with high walls, as before, and his city Bethsura.

bes@1Macc:6:8 @ Now when the king heard these words, he was astonished and sore moved: whereupon he laid him down upon his bed, and fell sick for grief, because it had not befallen him as he looked for.

bes@1Macc:6:11 @ And I thought with myself, Into what tribulation am I come, and how great a flood of misery is it, wherein now I am! for I was bountiful and beloved in my power.

bes@1Macc:6:12 @ But now I remember the evils that I did at Jerusalem, and that I took all the vessels of gold and silver that were therein, and sent to destroy the inhabitants of Judea without a cause.

bes@1Macc:6:18 @ About this time they that were in the tower shut up the Israelites round about the sanctuary, and sought always their hurt, and the strengthening of the heathen.

bes@1Macc:6:21 @ Howbeit certain of them that were besieged got forth, unto whom some ungodly men of Israel joined themselves:

bes@1Macc:6:22 @ And they went unto the king, and said, How long will it be ere thou execute judgement, and avenge our brethren?

bes@1Macc:6:24 @ For which cause they of our nation besiege the tower, and are alienated from us: moreover as many of us as they could light on they slew, and spoiled our inheritance.

bes@1Macc:6:25 @ Neither have they stretched out their hand against us only, but also against their borders.

bes@1Macc:6:26 @ And, behold, this day are they besieging the tower at Jerusalem, to take it: the sanctuary also and Bethsura have they fortified.

bes@1Macc:6:27 @ Wherefore if thou dost not prevent them quickly, they will do the greater things than these, neither shalt thou be able to rule them.

bes@1Macc:6:31 @ These went through Idumea, and pitched against Bethsura, which they assaulted many days, making engines of war; but they of Bethsura came out, and burned them with fire, and fought valiantly.

bes@1Macc:6:32 @ Upon this Judas removed from the tower, and pitched in Bathzacharias, over against the king’s camp.

bes@1Macc:6:33 @ Then the king rising very early marched fiercely with his host toward Bathzacharias, where his armies made them ready to battle, and sounded the trumpets.

bes@1Macc:6:35 @ Moreover they divided the beasts among the armies, and for every elephant they appointed a thousand men, armed with coats of mail, and with helmets of brass on their heads; and beside this, for every beast were ordained five hundred horsemen of the best.

bes@1Macc:6:36 @ These were ready at every occasion: wheresoever the beast was, and whithersoever the beast went, they went also, neither departed they from him.

bes@1Macc:6:37 @ And upon the beasts were there strong towers of wood, which covered every one of them, and were girt fast unto them with devices: there were also upon every one two and thirty strong men, that fought upon them, beside the Indian that ruled him.

bes@1Macc:6:39 @ Now when the sun shone upon the shields of gold and brass, the mountains glistered therewith, and shined like lamps of fire.

bes@1Macc:6:41 @ Wherefore all that heard the noise of their multitude, and the marching of the company, and the rattling of the harness, were moved: for the army was very great and mighty.

bes@1Macc:6:43 @ Eleazar also, surnamed Savaran, perceiving that one of the beasts, armed with royal harness, was higher than all the rest, and supposing that the king was upon him,

bes@1Macc:6:47 @ Howbeit the rest of the Jews seeing the strength of the king, and the violence of his forces, turned away from them.

bes@1Macc:6:48 @ Then the king’s army went up to Jerusalem to meet them, and the king pitched his tents against Judea, and against mount Sion.

bes@1Macc:6:49 @ But with them that were in Bethsura he made peace: for they came out of the city, because they had no victuals there to endure the siege, it being a year of rest to the land.

bes@1Macc:6:50 @ So the king took Bethsura, and set a garrison there to keep it.

bes@1Macc:6:51 @ As for the sanctuary, he besieged it many days: and set there artillery with engines and instruments to cast fire and stones, and pieces to cast darts and slings.

bes@1Macc:6:53 @ Yet at the last, their vessels being without victuals, (for that it was the seventh year, and they in Judea that were delivered from the Gentiles, had eaten up the residue of the store;)

bes@1Macc:6:56 @ Was returned out of Persia and Media, and the king’s host also that went with him, and that he sought to take unto him the ruling of the affairs.

bes@1Macc:6:58 @ Now therefore let us be friends with these men, and make peace with them, and with all their nation;

bes@1Macc:6:59 @ And covenant with them, that they shall live after their laws, as they did before: for they are therefore displeased, and have done all these things, because we abolished their laws.

bes@1Macc:6:63 @ Afterward departed he in all haste, and returned unto Antiochia, where he found Philip to be master of the city: so he fought against him, and took the city by force.

bes@1Macc:7:1 @ In the hundred and one and fiftieth year Demetrius the son of Seleucus departed from Rome, and came up with a few men unto a city of the sea coast, and reigned there.

bes@1Macc:7:2 @ And as he entered into the palace of his ancestors, so it was, that his forces had taken Antiochus and Lysias, to bring them unto him.

bes@1Macc:7:3 @ Wherefore, when he knew it, he said, Let me not see their faces.

bes@1Macc:7:7 @ Now therefore send some man whom thou trustest, and let him go and see what havock he hath made among us, and in the king’s land, and let him punish them with all them that aid them.

bes@1Macc:7:8 @ Then the king chose Bacchides, a friend of the king, who ruled beyond the flood, and was a great man in the kingdom, and faithful to the king,

bes@1Macc:7:9 @ And him he sent with that wicked Alcimus, whom he made high priest, and commanded that he should take vengeance of the children of Israel.

bes@1Macc:7:10 @ So they departed, and came with a great power into the land of Judea, where they sent messengers to Judas and his brethren with peaceable words deceitfully.

bes@1Macc:7:11 @ But they gave no heed to their words; for they saw that they were come with a great power.

bes@1Macc:7:14 @ For said they, One that is a priest of the seed of Aaron is come with this army, and he will do us no wrong.

bes@1Macc:7:15 @ So he spake unto them, peaceably, and sware unto them, saying, we will procure the harm neither of you nor your friends.

bes@1Macc:7:16 @ Whereupon they believed him: howbeit he took of them threescore men, and slew them in one day, according to the words which he wrote,

bes@1Macc:7:18 @ Wherefore the fear and dread of them fell upon all the people, who said, There is neither truth nor righteousness in them; for they have broken the covenant and oath that they made.

bes@1Macc:7:19 @ After this, removed Bacchides from Jerusalem, and pitched his tents in Bezeth, where he sent and took many of the men that had forsaken him, and certain of the people also, and when he had slain them, he cast them into the great pit.

bes@1Macc:7:20 @ Then committed he the country to Alcimus, and left with him a power to aid him: so Bacchides went to the king.

bes@1Macc:7:23 @ Now when Judas saw all the mischief that Alcimus and his company had done among the Israelites, even above the heathen,

bes@1Macc:7:26 @ Then the king sent Nicanor, one of his honourable princes, a man that bare deadly hate unto Israel, with commandment to destroy the people.

bes@1Macc:7:27 @ So Nicanor came to Jerusalem with a great force; and sent unto Judas and his brethren deceitfully with friendly words, saying,

bes@1Macc:7:28 @ Let there be no battle between me and you; I will come with a few men, that I may see you in peace.

bes@1Macc:7:29 @ He came therefore to Judas, and they saluted one another peaceably. Howbeit the enemies were prepared to take away Judas by violence.

bes@1Macc:7:30 @ Which thing after it was known to Judas, to wit, that he came unto him with deceit, he was sore afraid of him, and would see his face no more.

bes@1Macc:7:32 @ Where there were slain of Nicanor’s side about five thousand men, and the rest fled into the city of David.

bes@1Macc:7:35 @ And sware in his wrath, saying, Unless Judas and his host be now delivered into my hands, if ever I come again in safety, I will burn up this house: and with that he went out in a great rage.

bes@1Macc:7:37 @ Thou, O Lord, didst choose this house to be called by thy name, and to be a house of prayer and petition for thy people:

bes@1Macc:7:39 @ So Nicanor went out of Jerusalem, and pitched his tents in Bethhoron, where an host out of Syria met him.

bes@1Macc:7:40 @ But Judas pitched in Adasa with three thousand men, and there he prayed, saying,

bes@1Macc:7:43 @ So the thirteenth day of the month Adar the hosts joined battle: but Nicanor’s host was discomfited, and he himself was first slain in the battle.

bes@1Macc:7:45 @ Then they pursued after them a day’s journey, from Adasa unto Gazera, sounding an alarm after them with their trumpets.

bes@1Macc:7:46 @ Whereupon they came forth out of all the towns of Judea round about, and closed them in; so that they, turning back upon them that pursued them, were all slain with the sword, and not one of them was left.

bes@1Macc:7:50 @ Thus the land of Juda was in rest a little while.

bes@1Macc:8:1 @ Now Judas had heard of the fame of the Romans, that they were mighty and valiant men, and such as would lovingly accept all that joined themselves unto them, and make a league of amity with all that came unto them;

bes@1Macc:8:2 @ And that they were men of great valour. It was told him also of their wars and noble acts which they had done among the Galatians, and how they had conquered them, and brought them under tribute;

bes@1Macc:8:4 @ And that by their policy and patience they had conquered all the place, though it were very far from them; and the kings also that came against them from the uttermost part of the earth, till they had discomfited them, and given them a great overthrow, so that the rest did give them tribute every year:

bes@1Macc:8:5 @ Beside this, how they had discomfited in battle Philip, and Perseus, king of the Citims, with others that lifted up themselves against them, and had overcome them:

bes@1Macc:8:6 @ How also Antiochus the great king of Asia, that came against them in battle, having an hundred and twenty elephants, with horsemen, and chariots, and a very great army, was discomfited by them;

bes@1Macc:8:10 @ And that they, having knowledge thereof sent against them a certain captain, and fighting with them slew many of them, and carried away captives their wives and their children, and spoiled them, and took possession of their lands, and pulled down their strong holds, and brought them to be their servants unto this day:

bes@1Macc:8:11 @ It was told him besides, how they destroyed and brought under their dominion all other kingdoms and isles that at any time resisted them;

bes@1Macc:8:12 @ But with their friends and such as relied upon them they kept amity: and that they had conquered kingdoms both far and nigh, insomuch as all that heard of their name were afraid of them:

bes@1Macc:8:16 @ And that they committed their government to one man every year, who ruled over all their country, and that all were obedient to that one, and that there was neither envy nor emulation among them.

bes@1Macc:8:17 @ In consideration of these things, Judas chose Eupolemus the son of John, the son of Accos, and Jason the son of Eleazar, and sent them to Rome, to make a league of amity and confederacy with them,

bes@1Macc:8:18 @ And to intreat them that they would take the yoke from them; for they saw that the kingdom of the Grecians did oppress Israel with servitude.

bes@1Macc:8:20 @ Judas Maccabeus with his brethren, and the people of the Jews, have sent us unto you, to make a confederacy and peace with you, and that we might be registered your confederates and friends.

bes@1Macc:8:25 @ The people of the Jews shall help them, as the time shall be appointed, with all their heart:

bes@1Macc:8:26 @ Neither shall they give any thing unto them that make war upon them, or aid them with victuals, weapons, money, or ships, as it hath seemed good unto the Romans; but they shall keep their covenants without taking any thing therefore.

bes@1Macc:8:27 @ In the same manner also, if war come first upon the nation of the Jews, the Romans shall help them with all their heart, according as the time shall be appointed them:

bes@1Macc:8:28 @ Neither shall victuals be given to them that take part against them, or weapons, or money, or ships, as it hath seemed good to the Romans; but they shall keep their covenants, and that without deceit.

bes@1Macc:8:29 @ According to these articles did the Romans make a covenant with the people of the Jews.

bes@1Macc:8:30 @ Howbeit if hereafter the one party or the other shall think to meet to add or diminish any thing, they may do it at their pleasures, and whatsoever they shall add or take away shall be ratified.

bes@1Macc:8:31 @ And as touching the evils that Demetrius doeth to the Jews, we have written unto him, saying, Wherefore thou made thy yoke heavy upon our friends and confederates the Jews?

bes@1Macc:8:32 @ If therefore they complain any more against thee, we will do them justice, and fight with thee by sea and by land.

bes@1Macc:9:1 @ Furthermore, when Demetrius heard the Nicanor and his host were slain in battle, he sent Bacchides and Alcimus into the land of Judea the second time, and with them the chief strength of his host:

bes@1Macc:9:2 @ Who went forth by the way that leadeth to Galgala, and pitched their tents before Masaloth, which is in Arbela, and after they had won it, they slew much people.

bes@1Macc:9:4 @ From whence they removed, and went to Berea, with twenty thousand footmen and two thousand horsemen.

bes@1Macc:9:5 @ Now Judas had pitched his tents at Eleasa, and three thousand chosen men with him:

bes@1Macc:9:6 @ Who seeing the multitude of the other army to he so great were sore afraid; whereupon many conveyed themselves out of the host, insomuch as abode of them no more but eight hundred men.

bes@1Macc:9:8 @ Nevertheless unto them that remained he said, Let us arise and go up against our enemies, if peradventure we may be able to fight with them.

bes@1Macc:9:9 @ But they dehorted him, saying, We shall never be able: let us now rather save our lives, and hereafter we will return with our brethren, and fight against them: for we are but few.

bes@1Macc:9:11 @ With that the host of Bacchides removed out of their tents, and stood over against them, their horsemen being divided into two troops, and their slingers and archers going before the host and they that marched in the foreward were all mighty men.

bes@1Macc:9:14 @ Now when Judas perceived that Bacchides and the strength of his army were on the right side, he took with him all the hardy men,

bes@1Macc:9:15 @ Who discomfited the right wing, and pursued them unto the mount Azotus.

bes@1Macc:9:16 @ But when they of the left wing saw that they of the right wing were discomfited, they followed upon Judas and those that were with him hard at the heels from behind:

bes@1Macc:9:22 @ As for the other things concerning Judas and his wars, and the noble acts which he did, and his greatness, they are not written: for they were very many. 2

bes@1Macc:9:23 @ Now after the death of Judas the wicked began to put forth their heads in all the coasts of Israel, and there arose up all such as wrought iniquity.

bes@1Macc:9:24 @ In those days also was there a very great famine, by reason whereof the country revolted, and went with them.

bes@1Macc:9:26 @ And they made enquiry and search for Judas’ friends, and brought them unto Bacchides, who took vengeance of them, and used them despitefully.

bes@1Macc:9:33 @ Then Jonathan, and Simon his brother, and all that were with him, perceiving that, fled into the wilderness of Thecoe, and pitched their tents by the water of the pool Asphar.

bes@1Macc:9:34 @ Which when Bacchides understood, he came near to Jordan with all his host upon the sabbath day.

bes@1Macc:9:35 @ Now Jonathan had sent his brother John, a captain of the people, to pray his friends the Nabathites, that they might leave with them their carriage, which was much.

bes@1Macc:9:36 @ But the children of Jambri came out of Medaba, and took John, and all that he had, and went their way with it.

bes@1Macc:9:37 @ After this came word to Jonathan and Simon his brother, that the children of Jambri made a great marriage, and were bringing the bride from Nadabatha with a great train, as being the daughter of one of the great princes of Chanaan.

bes@1Macc:9:39 @ Where they lifted up their eyes, and looked, and, behold, there was much ado and great carriage: and the bridegroom came forth, and his friends and brethren, to meet them with drums, and instruments of musick, and many weapons.

bes@1Macc:9:40 @ Then Jonathan and they that were with him rose up against them from the place where they lay in ambush, and made a slaughter of them in such sort, as many fell down dead, and the remnant fled into the mountain, and they took all their spoils.

bes@1Macc:9:43 @ Now when Bacchides heard hereof, he came on the sabbath day unto the banks of Jordan with a great power.

bes@1Macc:9:44 @ Then Jonathan said to his company, Let us go up now and fight for our lives, for it standeth not with us to day, as in time past:

bes@1Macc:9:45 @ For, behold, the battle is before us and behind us, and the water of Jordan on this side and that side, the marsh likewise and wood, neither is there place for us to turn aside.

bes@1Macc:9:47 @ With that they joined battle, and Jonathan stretched forth his hand to smite Bacchides, but he turned back from him.

bes@1Macc:9:48 @ Then Jonathan and they that were with him leapt into Jordan, and swam over unto the other bank: howbeit the other passed not over Jordan unto them.

bes@1Macc:9:50 @ Afterward returned Bacchides to Jerusalem and repaired the strong cites in Judea; the fort in Jericho, and Emmaus, and Bethhoron, and Bethel, and Thamnatha, Pharathoni, and Taphon, these did he strengthen with high walls, with gates and with bars.

bes@1Macc:9:52 @ He fortified also the city Bethsura, and Gazera, and the tower, and put forces in them, and provision of victuals.

bes@1Macc:9:55 @ And as he began to pull down, even at that time was Alcimus plagued, and his enterprises hindered: for his mouth was stopped, and he was taken with a palsy, so that he could no more speak any thing, nor give order concerning his house.

bes@1Macc:9:56 @ So Alcimus died at that time with great torment.

bes@1Macc:9:58 @ Then all the ungodly men held a council, saying, Behold, Jonathan and his company are at ease, and dwell without care: now therefore we will bring Bacchides hither, who shall take them all in one night.

bes@1Macc:9:59 @ So they went and consulted with him.

bes@1Macc:9:60 @ Then removed he, and came with a great host, and sent letters privily to his adherents in Judea, that they should take Jonathan and those that were with him: howbeit they could not, because their counsel was known unto them.

bes@1Macc:9:62 @ Afterward Jonathan, and Simon, and they that were with him, got them away to Bethbasi, which is in the wilderness, and they repaired the decays thereof, and made it strong.

bes@1Macc:9:64 @ Then went he and laid siege against Bethbasi; and they fought against it a long season and made engines of war.

bes@1Macc:9:65 @ But Jonathan left his brother Simon in the city, and went forth himself into the country, and with a certain number went he forth.

bes@1Macc:9:67 @ And when he began to smite them, and came up with his forces, Simon and his company went out of the city, and burned up the engines of war,

bes@1Macc:9:68 @ And fought against Bacchides, who was discomfited by them, and they afflicted him sore: for his counsel and travail was in vain.

bes@1Macc:9:70 @ Whereof when Jonathan had knowledge, he sent ambassadors unto him, to the end he should make peace with him, and deliver them the prisoners.

bes@1Macc:9:72 @ When therefore he had restored unto him the prisoners that he had taken aforetime out of the land of Judea, he returned and went his way into his own land, neither came he any more into their borders.

bes@1Macc:10:3 @ Moreover Demetrius sent letters unto Jonathan with loving words, so as he magnified him.

bes@1Macc:10:4 @ For said he, Let us first make peace with him, before he join with Alexander against us:

bes@1Macc:10:6 @ Wherefore he gave him authority to gather together an host, and to provide weapons, that he might aid him in battle: he commanded also that the hostages that were in the tower should be delivered him.

bes@1Macc:10:8 @ Who were sore afraid, when they heard that the king had given him authority to gather together an host.

bes@1Macc:10:10 @ This done, Jonathan settled himself in Jerusalem, and began to build and repair the city.

bes@1Macc:10:11 @ And he commanded the workmen to build the walls and the mount Sion and about with square stones for fortification; and they did so.

bes@1Macc:10:14 @ Only at Bethsura certain of those that had forsaken the law and the commandments remained still: for it was their place of refuge.

bes@1Macc:10:15 @ Now when king Alexander had heard what promises Demetrius had sent unto Jonathan: when also it was told him of the battles and noble acts which he and his brethren had done, and of the pains that they had endured,

bes@1Macc:10:17 @ Upon this he wrote a letter, and sent it unto him, according to these words, saying,

bes@1Macc:10:20 @ Wherefore now this day we ordain thee to be the high priest of thy nation, and to be called the king’s friend; (and therewithal he sent him a purple robe and a crown of gold:) and require thee to take our part, and keep friendship with us.

bes@1Macc:10:23 @ What have we done, that Alexander hath prevented us in making amity with the Jews to strengthen himself?

bes@1Macc:10:24 @ I also will write unto them words of encouragement, and promise them dignities and gifts, that I may have their aid.

bes@1Macc:10:26 @ Whereas ye have kept covenants with us, and continued in our friendship, not joining yourselves with our enemies, we have heard hereof, and are glad.

bes@1Macc:10:27 @ Wherefore now continue ye still to be faithful unto us, and we will well recompense you for the things ye do in our behalf,

bes@1Macc:10:28 @ And will grant you many immunities, and give you rewards.

bes@1Macc:10:30 @ And from that which appertaineth unto me to receive for the third part or the seed, and the half of the fruit of the trees, I release it from this day forth, so that they shall not be taken of the land of Judea, nor of the three governments which are added thereunto out of the country of Samaria and Galilee, from this day forth for evermore.

bes@1Macc:10:31 @ Let Jerusalem also be holy and free, with the borders thereof, both from tenths and tributes.

bes@1Macc:10:32 @ And as for the tower which is at Jerusalem, I yield up authority over it, and give the high priest, that he may set in it such men as he shall choose to keep it.

bes@1Macc:10:33 @ Moreover I freely set at liberty every one of the Jews, that were carried captives out of the land of Judea into any part of my kingdom, and I will that all my officers remit the tributes even of their cattle.

bes@1Macc:10:34 @ Furthermore I will that all the feasts, and sabbaths, and new moons, and solemn days, and the three days before the feast, and the three days after the feast shall be all of immunity and freedom for all the Jews in my realm.

bes@1Macc:10:35 @ Also no man shall have authority to meddle with or to molest any of them in any matter.

bes@1Macc:10:38 @ And concerning the three governments that are added to Judea from the country of Samaria, let them be joined with Judea, that they may be reckoned to be under one, nor bound to obey other authority than the high priest’s.

bes@1Macc:10:39 @ As for Ptolemais, and the land pertaining thereto, I give it as a free gift to the sanctuary at Jerusalem for the necessary expenses of the sanctuary.

bes@1Macc:10:43 @ And whosoever they be that flee unto the temple at Jerusalem, or be within the liberties hereof, being indebted unto the king, or for any other matter, let them be at liberty, and all that they have in my realm.

bes@1Macc:10:46 @ Now when Jonathan and the people heard these words, they gave no credit unto them, nor received them, because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel; for he had afflicted them very sore.

bes@1Macc:10:47 @ But with Alexander they were well pleased, because he was the first that entreated of true peace with them, and they were confederate with him always.

bes@1Macc:10:51 @ Afterward Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt with a message to this effect:

bes@1Macc:10:52 @ Forasmuch as I am come again to my realm, and am set in the throne of my progenitors, and have gotten the dominion, and overthrown Demetrius, and recovered our country;

bes@1Macc:10:53 @ For after I had joined battle with him, both he and his host was discomfited by us, so that we sit in the throne of his kingdom:

bes@1Macc:10:54 @ Now therefore let us make a league of amity together, and give me now thy daughter to wife: and I will be thy son in law, and will give both thee and her as according to thy dignity.

bes@1Macc:10:56 @ And now will I do to thee, as thou hast written: meet me therefore at Ptolemais, that we may see one another; for I will marry my daughter to thee according to thy desire.

bes@1Macc:10:57 @ So Ptolemee went out of Egypt with his daughter Cleopatra, and they came unto Ptolemais in the hundred threescore and second year:

bes@1Macc:10:58 @ Where king Alexander meeting him, he gave unto him his daughter Cleopatra, and celebrated her marriage at Ptolemais with great glory, as the manner of kings is.

bes@1Macc:10:59 @ Now king Alexander had written unto Jonathan, that he should come and meet him.

bes@1Macc:10:63 @ And he made him sit by himself, and said into his princes, Go with him into the midst of the city, and make proclamation, that no man complain against him of any matter, and that no man trouble him for any manner of cause.

bes@1Macc:10:66 @ Afterward Jonathan returned to Jerusalem with peace and gladness.

bes@1Macc:10:71 @ Now therefore, if thou trustest in thine own strength, come down to us into the plain field, and there let us try the matter together: for with me is the power of the cities.

bes@1Macc:10:73 @ Wherefore now thou shalt not be able to abide the horsemen and so great a power in the plain, where is neither stone nor flint, nor place to flee unto.

bes@1Macc:10:75 @ And he pitched his tents against Joppa: but; they of Joppa shut him out of the city, because Apollonius had a garrison there.

bes@1Macc:10:76 @ Then Jonathan laid siege unto it: whereupon they of the city let him in for fear: and so Jonathan won Joppa.

bes@1Macc:10:77 @ Whereof when Apollonius heard, he took three thousand horsemen, with a great host of footmen, and went to Azotus as one that journeyed, and therewithal drew him forth into the plain. because he had a great number of horsemen, in whom he put his trust.

bes@1Macc:10:82 @ Then brought Simon forth his host, and set them against the footmen, (for the horsemen were spent) who were discomfited by him, and fled.

bes@1Macc:10:84 @ But Jonathan set fire on Azotus, and the cities round about it, and took their spoils; and the temple of Dagon, with them that were fled into it, he burned with fire.

bes@1Macc:10:85 @ Thus there were burned and slain with the sword well nigh eight thousand men.

bes@1Macc:10:86 @ And from thence Jonathan removed his host, and camped against Ascalon, where the men of the city came forth, and met him with great pomp.

bes@1Macc:10:89 @ And sent him a buckle of gold, as the use is to be given to such as are of the king’s blood: he gave him also Accaron with the borders thereof in possession.

bes@1Macc:11:1 @ And the king of Egypt gathered together a great host, like the sand that lieth upon the sea shore, and many ships, and went about through deceit to get Alexander’s kingdom, and join it to his own.

bes@1Macc:11:2 @ Whereupon he took his journey into Syria in peaceable manner, so as they of the cities opened unto him, and met him: for king Alexander had commanded them so to do, because he was his brother in law.

bes@1Macc:11:3 @ Now as Ptolemee entered into the cities, he set in every one of them a garrison of soldiers to keep it.

bes@1Macc:11:6 @ Then Jonathan met the king with great pomp at Joppa, where they saluted one another, and lodged.

bes@1Macc:11:7 @ Afterward Jonathan, when he had gone with the king to the river called Eleutherus, returned again to Jerusalem.

bes@1Macc:11:8 @ King Ptolemee therefore, having gotten the dominion of the cities by the sea unto Seleucia upon the sea coast, imagined wicked counsels against Alexander.

bes@1Macc:11:15 @ But when Alexander heard of this, he came to war against him: whereupon king Ptolemee brought forth his host, and met him with a mighty power, and put him to flight.

bes@1Macc:11:17 @ For Zabdiel the Arabian took off Alexander’s head, and sent it unto Ptolemee.

bes@1Macc:11:20 @ At the same time Jonathan gathered together them that were in Judea to take the tower that was in Jerusalem: and he made many engines of war against it.

bes@1Macc:11:22 @ Whereof when he heard, he was angry, and immediately removing, he came to Ptolemais, and wrote unto Jonathan, that he should not lay siege to the tower, but come and speak with him at Ptolemais in great haste.

bes@1Macc:11:23 @ Nevertheless Jonathan, when he heard this, commanded to besiege it still: and he chose certain of the elders of Israel and the priests, and put himself in peril;

bes@1Macc:11:28 @ Then Jonathan desired the king, that he would make Judea free from tribute, as also the three governments, with the country of Samaria; and he promised him three hundred talents.

bes@1Macc:11:31 @ We send you here a copy of the letter which we did write unto our cousin Lasthenes concerning you, that ye might see it.

bes@1Macc:11:33 @ We are determined to do good to the people of the Jews, who are our friends, and keep covenants with us, because of their good will toward us.

bes@1Macc:11:34 @ Wherefore we have ratified unto them the borders of Judea, with the three governments of Apherema and Lydda and Ramathem, that are added unto Judea from the country of Samaria, and all things appertaining unto them, for all such as do sacrifice in Jerusalem, instead of the payments which the king received of them yearly aforetime out of the fruits of the earth and of trees.

bes@1Macc:11:35 @ And as for other things that belong unto us, of the tithes and customs pertaining unto us, as also the saltpits, and the crown taxes, which are due unto us, we discharge them of them all for their relief.

bes@1Macc:11:37 @ Now therefore see that thou make a copy of these things, and let it be delivered unto Jonathan, and set upon the holy mount in a conspicuous place.

bes@1Macc:11:40 @ And lay sore upon him to deliver him this young Antiochus, that he might reign in his father’s stead: he told him therefore all that Demetrius had done, and how his men of war were at enmity with him, and there he remained a long season.

bes@1Macc:11:42 @ So Demetrius sent unto Jonathan, saying, I will not only do this for thee and thy people, but I will greatly honour thee and thy nation, if opportunity serve.

bes@1Macc:11:45 @ Howbeit they that were of the city gathered themselves together into the midst of the city, to the number of an hundred and twenty thousand men, and would have slain the king.

bes@1Macc:11:46 @ Wherefore the king fled into the court, but they of the city kept the passages of the city, and began to fight.

bes@1Macc:11:47 @ Then the king called to the Jews for help, who came unto him all at once, and dispersing themselves through the city slew that day in the city to the number of an hundred thousand.

bes@1Macc:11:48 @ Also they set fire on the city, and gat many spoils that day, and delivered the king.

bes@1Macc:11:49 @ So when they of the city saw that the Jews had got the city as they would, their courage was abated: wherefore they made supplication to the king, and cried, saying,

bes@1Macc:11:50 @ Grant us peace, and let the Jews cease from assaulting us and the city.

bes@1Macc:11:51 @ With that they cast away their weapons, and made peace; and the Jews were honoured in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realm; and they returned to Jerusalem, having great spoils.

bes@1Macc:11:53 @ Nevertheless he dissembled in all that ever he spake, and estranged himself from Jonathan, neither rewarded he him according to the benefits which he had received of him, but troubled him very sore.

bes@1Macc:11:54 @ After this returned Tryphon, and with him the young child Antiochus, who reigned, and was crowned.

bes@1Macc:11:60 @ Then Jonathan went forth, and passed through the cities beyond the water, and all the forces of Syria gathered themselves unto him for to help him: and when he came to Ascalon, they of the city met him honourably.

bes@1Macc:11:61 @ From whence he went to Gaza, but they of Gaza shut him out; wherefore he laid siege unto it, and burned the suburbs thereof with fire, and spoiled them.

bes@1Macc:11:62 @ Afterward, when they of Gaza made supplication unto Jonathan, he made peace with them, and took the sons of their chief men for hostages, and sent them to Jerusalem, and passed through the country unto Damascus.

bes@1Macc:11:63 @ Now when Jonathan heard that Demetrius’ princes were come to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great power, purposing to remove him out of the country,

bes@1Macc:11:65 @ Then Simon encamped against Bethsura and fought against it a long season, and shut it up:

bes@1Macc:11:66 @ But they desired to have peace with him, which he granted them, and then put them out from thence, and took the city, and set a garrison in it.

bes@1Macc:11:67 @ As for Jonathan and his host, they pitched at the water of Gennesar, from whence betimes in the morning they gat them to the plain of Nasor.

bes@1Macc:11:73 @ Now when his own men that were fled saw this, they turned again unto him, and with him pursued them to Cades, even unto their own tents, and there they camped.

bes@1Macc:12:1 @ Now when Jonathan saw that time served him, he chose certain men, and sent them to Rome, for to confirm and renew the friendship that they had with them.

bes@1Macc:12:3 @ So they went unto Rome, and entered into the senate, and said, Jonathan the high priest, and the people of the Jews, sent us unto you, to the end ye should renew the friendship, which ye had with them, and league, as in former time.

bes@1Macc:12:7 @ There were letters sent in times past unto Onias the high priest from Darius, who reigned then among you, to signify that ye are our brethren, as the copy here underwritten doth specify.

bes@1Macc:12:9 @ Therefore we also, albeit we need none of these things, that we have the holy books of scripture in our hands to comfort us,

bes@1Macc:12:11 @ We therefore at all times without ceasing, both in our feasts, and other convenient days, do remember you in the sacrifices which we offer, and in our prayers, as reason is, and as it becometh us to think upon our brethren:

bes@1Macc:12:14 @ Howbeit we would not be troublesome unto you, nor to others of our confederates and friends, in these wars:

bes@1Macc:12:16 @ For this cause we chose Numenius the son of Antiochus, and Antipater he son of Jason, and sent them unto the Romans, to renew the amity that we had with them, and the former league.

bes@1Macc:12:21 @ It is found in writing, that the Lacedemonians and Jews are brethren, and that they are of the stock of Abraham:

bes@1Macc:12:22 @ Now therefore, since this is come to our knowledge, ye shall do well to write unto us of your prosperity.

bes@1Macc:12:23 @ We do write back again to you, that your cattle and goods are our’s, and our’s are your’s We do command therefore our ambassadors to make report unto you on this wise.

bes@1Macc:12:24 @ Now when Jonathan heard that Demetrius’ princes were come to fight against him with a greater host than afore,

bes@1Macc:12:25 @ He removed from Jerusalem, and met them in the land of Amathis: for he gave them no respite to enter his country.

bes@1Macc:12:29 @ Howbeit Jonathan and his company knew it not till the morning: for they saw the lights burning.

bes@1Macc:12:33 @ Simon also went forth, and passed through the country unto Ascalon, and the holds there adjoining, from whence he turned aside to Joppa, and won it.

bes@1Macc:12:34 @ For he had heard that they would deliver the hold unto them that took Demetrius’ part; wherefore he set a garrison there to keep it.

bes@1Macc:12:35 @ After this came Jonathan home again, and calling the elders of the people together, he consulted with them about building strong holds in Judea,

bes@1Macc:12:36 @ And making the walls of Jerusalem higher, and raising a great mount between the tower and the city, for to separate it from the city, that so it might be alone, that men might neither sell nor buy in it.

bes@1Macc:12:37 @ Upon this they came together to build up the city, forasmuch as part of the wall toward the brook on the east side was fallen down, and they repaired that which was called Caphenatha.

bes@1Macc:12:38 @ Simon also set up Adida in Sephela, and made it strong with gates and bars.

bes@1Macc:12:40 @ Howbeit he was afraid that Jonathan would not suffer him, and that he would fight against him; wherefore he sought a way how to take Jonathan, that he might kill him. So he removed, and came to Bethsan.

bes@1Macc:12:41 @ Then Jonathan went out to meet him with forty thousand men chosen for the battle, and came to Bethsan.

bes@1Macc:12:42 @ Now when Tryphon saw Jonathan came with so great a force, he durst not stretch his hand against him;

bes@1Macc:12:45 @ Therefore send them now home again, and choose a few men to wait on thee, and come thou with me to Ptolemais, for I will give it thee, and the rest of the strong holds and forces, and all that have any charge: as for me, I will return and depart: for this is the cause of my coming.

bes@1Macc:12:47 @ And with himself he retained but three thousand men, of whom he sent two thousand into Galilee, and one thousand went with him.

bes@1Macc:12:48 @ Now as soon as Jonathan entered into Ptolemais, they of Ptolemais shut the gates and took him, and all them that came with him they slew with the sword.

bes@1Macc:12:50 @ But when they knew that Jonathan and they that were with him were taken and slain, they encouraged one another; and went close together, prepared to fight.

bes@1Macc:12:52 @ Whereupon they all came into the land of Judea peaceably, and there they bewailed Jonathan, and them that were with him, and they were sore afraid; wherefore all Israel made great lamentation.

bes@1Macc:13:1 @ Now when Simon heard that Tryphon had gathered together a great host to invade the land of Judea, and destroy it,

bes@1Macc:13:5 @ Now therefore be it far from me, that I should spare mine own life in any time of trouble: for I am no better than my brethren.

bes@1Macc:13:7 @ Now as soon as the people heard these words, their spirit revived.

bes@1Macc:13:8 @ And they answered with a loud voice, saying, Thou shalt be our leader instead of Judas and Jonathan thy brother.

bes@1Macc:13:10 @ So then he gathered together all the men of war, and made haste to finish the walls of Jerusalem, and he fortified it round about.

bes@1Macc:13:11 @ Also he sent Jonathan the son of Absalom, and with him a great power, to Joppa: who casting out them that were therein remained there in it.

bes@1Macc:13:12 @ So Tryphon removed from Ptolemais with a great power to invade the land of Judea, and Jonathan was with him in ward.

bes@1Macc:13:13 @ But Simon pitched his tents at Adida, over against the plain.

bes@1Macc:13:14 @ Now when Tryphon knew that Simon was risen up instead of his brother Jonathan, and meant to join battle with him, he sent messengers unto him, saying,

bes@1Macc:13:15 @ Whereas we have Jonathan thy brother in hold, it is for money that he is owing unto the king’s treasure, concerning the business that was committed unto him.

bes@1Macc:13:17 @ Hereupon Simon, albeit he perceived that they spake deceitfully unto him yet sent he the money and the children, lest peradventure he should procure to himself great hatred of the people:

bes@1Macc:13:19 @ So he sent them the children and the hundred talents: howbeit Tryphon dissembled neither would he let Jonathan go.

bes@1Macc:13:20 @ And after this came Tryphon to invade the land, and destroy it, going round about by the way that leadeth unto Adora: but Simon and his host marched against him in every place, wheresoever he went.

bes@1Macc:13:25 @ Then sent Simon, and took the bones of Jonathan his brother, and buried them in Modin, the city of his fathers.

bes@1Macc:13:27 @ Simon also built a monument upon the sepulchre of his father and his brethren, and raised it aloft to the sight, with hewn stone behind and before.

bes@1Macc:13:30 @ This is the sepulchre which he made at Modin, and it standeth yet unto this day.

bes@1Macc:13:31 @ Now Tryphon dealt deceitfully with the young king Antiochus, and slew him.

bes@1Macc:13:32 @ And he reigned in his stead, and crowned himself king of Asia, and brought a great calamity upon the land.

bes@1Macc:13:33 @ Then Simon built up the strong holds in Judea, and fenced them about with high towers, and great walls, and gates, and bars, and laid up victuals therein.

bes@1Macc:13:34 @ Moreover Simon chose men, and sent to king Demetrius, to the end he should give the land an immunity, because all that Tryphon did was to spoil.

bes@1Macc:13:37 @ The golden crown, and the scarlet robe, which ye sent unto us, we have received: and we are ready to make a stedfast peace with you, yea, and to write unto our officers, to confirm the immunities which we have granted.

bes@1Macc:13:38 @ And whatsoever covenants we have made with you shall stand; and the strong holds, which ye have builded, shall be your own.

bes@1Macc:13:39 @ As for any oversight or fault committed unto this day, we forgive it, and the crown tax also, which ye owe us: and if there were any other tribute paid in Jerusalem, it shall no more be paid.

bes@1Macc:13:42 @ Then the people of Israel began to write in their instruments and contracts, In the first year of Simon the high priest, the governor and leader of the Jews.

bes@1Macc:13:43 @ In those days Simon camped against Gaza and besieged it round about; he made also an engine of war, and set it by the city, and battered a certain tower, and took it.

bes@1Macc:13:44 @ And they that were in the engine leaped into the city; whereupon there was a great uproar in the city:

bes@1Macc:13:45 @ Insomuch as the people of the city rent their clothes, and climbed upon the walls with their wives and children, and cried with a loud voice, beseeching Simon to grant them peace.

bes@1Macc:13:46 @ And they said, Deal not with us according to our wickedness, but according to thy mercy.

bes@1Macc:13:47 @ So Simon was appeased toward them, and fought no more against them, but put them out of the city, and cleansed the houses wherein the idols were, and so entered into it with songs and thanksgiving.

bes@1Macc:13:48 @ Yea, he put all uncleanness out of it, and placed such men there as would keep the law, and made it stronger than it was before, and built therein a dwellingplace for himself.

bes@1Macc:13:49 @ They also of the tower in Jerusalem were kept so strait, that they could neither come forth, nor go into the country, nor buy, nor sell: wherefore they were in great distress for want of victuals, and a great number of them perished through famine.

bes@1Macc:13:50 @ Then cried they to Simon, beseeching him to be at one with them: which thing he granted them; and when he had put them out from thence, he cleansed the tower from pollutions:

bes@1Macc:13:51 @ And entered into it the three and twentieth day of the second month in the hundred seventy and first year, with thanksgiving, and branches of palm trees, and with harps, and cymbals, and with viols, and hymns, and songs: because there was destroyed a great enemy out of Israel.

bes@1Macc:13:52 @ He ordained also that that day should be kept every year with gladness. Moreover the hill of the temple that was by the tower he made stronger than it was, and there he dwelt himself with his company.

bes@1Macc:14:2 @ But when Arsaces, the king of Persia and Media, heard that Demetrius was entered within his borders, he sent one of his princes to take him alive:

bes@1Macc:14:4 @ As for the land of Judea, that was quiet all the days of Simon; for he sought the good of his nation in such wise, as that evermore his authority and honour pleased them well.

bes@1Macc:14:7 @ And gathered together a great number of captives, and had the dominion of Gazera, and Bethsura, and the tower, out of the which he took all uncleanness, neither was there any that resisted him.

bes@1Macc:14:8 @ Then did they till their ground in peace, and the earth gave her increase, and the trees of the field their fruit.

bes@1Macc:14:10 @ He provided victuals for the cities, and set in them all manner of munition, so that his honourable name was renowned unto the end of the world.

bes@1Macc:14:11 @ He made peace in the land, and Israel rejoiced with great joy:

bes@1Macc:14:13 @ Neither was there any left in the land to fight against them: yea, the kings themselves were overthrown in those days.

bes@1Macc:14:16 @ Now when it was heard at Rome, and as far as Sparta, that Jonathan was dead, they were very sorry.

bes@1Macc:14:17 @ But as soon as they heard that his brother Simon was made high priest in his stead, and ruled the country, and the cities therein:

bes@1Macc:14:18 @ They wrote unto him in tables of brass, to renew the friendship and league which they had made with Judas and Jonathan his brethren:

bes@1Macc:14:19 @ Which writings were read before the congregation at Jerusalem.

bes@1Macc:14:20 @ And this is the copy of the letters that the Lacedemonians sent; The rulers of the Lacedemonians, with the city, unto Simon the high priest, and the elders, and priests, and residue of the people of the Jews, our brethren, send greeting:

bes@1Macc:14:22 @ And did register the things that they spake in the council of the people in this manner; Numenius son of Antiochus, and Antipater son of Jason, the Jews’ ambassadors, came unto us to renew the friendship they had with us.

bes@1Macc:14:23 @ And it pleased the people to entertain the men honourably, and to put the copy of their ambassage in publick records, to the end the people of the Lacedemonians might have a memorial thereof: furthermore we have written a copy thereof unto Simon the high priest.

bes@1Macc:14:24 @ After this Simon sent Numenius to Rome with a great shield of gold of a thousand pound weight to confirm the league with them.

bes@1Macc:14:27 @ So then they wrote it in tables of brass, which they set upon pillars in mount Sion: and this is the copy of the writing; The eighteenth day of the month Elul, in the hundred threescore and twelfth year, being the third year of Simon the high priest,

bes@1Macc:14:29 @ Forasmuch as oftentimes there have been wars in the country, wherein for the maintenance of their sanctuary, and the law, Simon the son of Mattathias, of the posterity of Jarib, together with his brethren, put themselves in jeopardy, and resisting the enemies of their nation did their nation great honour:

bes@1Macc:14:31 @ Their enemies prepared to invade their country, that they might destroy it, and lay hands on the sanctuary:

bes@1Macc:14:33 @ And fortified the cities of Judea, together with Bethsura, that lieth upon the borders of Judea, where the armour of the enemies had been before; but he set a garrison of Jews there:

bes@1Macc:14:34 @ Moreover he fortified Joppa, which lieth upon the sea, and Gazera, that bordereth upon Azotus, where the enemies had dwelt before: but he placed Jews there, and furnished them with all things convenient for the reparation thereof.)

bes@1Macc:14:35 @ The people therefore sang the acts of Simon, and unto what glory he thought to bring his nation, made him their governor and chief priest, because he had done all these things, and for the justice and faith which he kept to his nation, and for that he sought by all means to exalt his people.

bes@1Macc:14:36 @ For in his time things prospered in his hands, so that the heathen were taken out of their country, and they also that were in the city of David in Jerusalem, who had made themselves a tower, out of which they issued, and polluted all about the sanctuary, and did much hurt in the holy place:

bes@1Macc:14:37 @ But he placed Jews therein. and fortified it for the safety of the country and the city, and raised up the walls of Jerusalem.

bes@1Macc:14:39 @ And made him one of his friends, and honoured him with great honour.

bes@1Macc:14:41 @ Also that the Jews and priests were well pleased that Simon should be their governor and high priest for ever, until there should arise a faithful prophet;

bes@1Macc:14:43 @ Beside this, that he should be obeyed of every man, and that all the writings in the country should be made in his name, and that he should be clothed in purple, and wear gold:

bes@1Macc:14:44 @ Also that it should be lawful for none of the people or priests to break any of these things, or to gainsay his words, or to gather an assembly in the country without him, or to be clothed in purple, or wear a buckle of gold;

bes@1Macc:14:46 @ Thus it liked all the people to deal with Simon, and to do as hath been said.

bes@1Macc:14:48 @ So they commanded that this writing should be put in tables of brass, and that they should be set up within the compass of the sanctuary in a conspicuous place;

bes@1Macc:15:3 @ Forasmuch as certain pestilent men have usurped the kingdom of our fathers, and my purpose is to challenge it again, that I may restore it to the old estate, and to that end have gathered a multitude of foreign soldiers together, and prepared ships of war;

bes@1Macc:15:4 @ My meaning also being to go through the country, that I may be avenged of them that have destroyed it, and made many cities in the kingdom desolate:

bes@1Macc:15:6 @ I give thee leave also to coin money for thy country with thine own stamp.

bes@1Macc:15:8 @ And if anything be, or shall be, owing to the king, let it be forgiven thee from this time forth for evermore.

bes@1Macc:15:9 @ Furthermore, when we have obtained our kingdom, we will honour thee, and thy nation, and thy temple, with great honour, so that your honour shall be known throughout the world.

bes@1Macc:15:10 @ In the hundred threescore and fourteenth year went Antiochus into the land of his fathers: at which time all the forces came together unto him, so that few were left with Tryphon.

bes@1Macc:15:13 @ Then camped Antiochus against Dora, having with him an hundred and twenty thousand men of war, and eight thousand horsemen.

bes@1Macc:15:14 @ And when he had compassed the city round about, and joined ships close to the town on the sea side, he vexed the city by land and by sea, neither suffered he any to go out or in.

bes@1Macc:15:15 @ In the mean season came Numenius and his company from Rome, having letters to the kings and countries; wherein were written these things:

bes@1Macc:15:19 @ We thought it good therefore to write unto the kings and countries, that they should do them no harm, nor fight against them, their cities, or countries, nor yet aid their enemies against them.

bes@1Macc:15:20 @ It seemed also good to us to receive the shield of them.

bes@1Macc:15:25 @ So Antiochus the king camped against Dora the second day, assaulting it continually, and making engines, by which means he shut up Tryphon, that he could neither go out nor in.

bes@1Macc:15:27 @ Nevertheless he would not receive them, but brake all the covenants which he had made with him afore, and became strange unto him.

bes@1Macc:15:28 @ Furthermore he sent unto him Athenobius, one of his friends, to commune with him, and say, Ye withhold Joppa and Gazera; with the tower that is in Jerusalem, which are cities of my realm.

bes@1Macc:15:29 @ The borders thereof ye have wasted, and done great hurt in the land, and got the dominion of many places within my kingdom.

bes@1Macc:15:30 @ Now therefore deliver the cities which ye have taken, and the tributes of the places, whereof ye have gotten dominion without the borders of Judea:

bes@1Macc:15:31 @ Or else give me for them five hundred talents of silver; and for the harm that ye have done, and the tributes of the cities, other five hundred talents: if not, we will come and fight against you

bes@1Macc:15:33 @ Then answered Simon, and said unto him, We have neither taken other men’s land, nor holden that which appertaineth to others, but the inheritance of our fathers, which our enemies had wrongfully in possession a certain time.

bes@1Macc:15:34 @ Wherefore we, having opportunity, hold the inheritance of our fathers.

bes@1Macc:15:35 @ And whereas thou demandest Joppa and Gazera, albeit they did great harm unto the people in our country, yet will we give thee an hundred talents for them. Hereunto Athenobius answered him not a word;

bes@1Macc:16:3 @ But now I am old, and ye, by God’s mercy, are of a sufficient age: be ye instead of me and my brother, and go and fight for our nation, and the help from heaven be with you.

bes@1Macc:16:4 @ So he chose out of the country twenty thousand men of war with horsemen, who went out against Cendebeus, and rested that night at Modin.

bes@1Macc:16:5 @ And when as they rose in the morning, and went into the plain, behold, a mighty great host both of footmen and horsemen came against them: howbeit there was a water brook betwixt them.

bes@1Macc:16:6 @ So he and his people pitched over against them: and when he saw that the people were afraid to go over the water brook, he went first over himself, and then the men seeing him passed through after him.

bes@1Macc:16:8 @ Then sounded they with the holy trumpets: whereupon Cendebeus and his host were put to flight, so that many of them were slain, and the remnant gat them to the strong hold.

bes@1Macc:16:10 @ So they fled even unto the towers in the fields of Azotus; wherefore he burned it with fire: so that there were slain of them about two thousand men. Afterward he returned into the land of Judea in peace.

bes@1Macc:16:13 @ Wherefore his heart being lifted up, he thought to get the country to himself, and thereupon consulted deceitfully against Simon and his sons to destroy them.

bes@1Macc:16:14 @ Now Simon was visiting the cities that were in the country, and taking care for the good ordering of them; at which time he came down himself to Jericho with his sons, Mattathias and Judas, in the hundred threescore and seventeenth year, in the eleventh month, called Sabat:

bes@1Macc:16:15 @ Where the son of Abubus receiving them deceitfully into a little hold, called Docus, which he had built, made them a great banquet: howbeit he had hid men there.

bes@1Macc:16:17 @ In which doing he committed a great treachery, and recompensed evil for good.

bes@1Macc:16:18 @ Then Ptolemee wrote these things, and sent to the king, that he should send him an host to aid him, and he would deliver him the country and cities.

bes@1Macc:16:24 @ Behold, these are written in the chronicles of his priesthood, from the time he was made high priest after his father.

bes@2Macc:1:2 @ God be gracious unto you, and remember his covenant that he made with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, his faithful servants;

bes@2Macc:1:3 @ And give you all an heart to serve him, and to do his will, with a good courage and a willing mind;

bes@2Macc:1:5 @ And hear your prayers, and be at one with you, and never forsake you in time of trouble.

bes@2Macc:1:7 @ What time as Demetrius reigned, in the hundred threescore and ninth year, we the Jews wrote unto you in the extremity of trouble that came upon us in those years, from the time that Jason and his company revolted from the holy land and kingdom,

bes@2Macc:1:12 @ For he cast them out that fought within the holy city.

bes@2Macc:1:13 @ For when the leader was come into Persia, and the army with him that seemed invincible, they were slain in the temple of Nanea by the deceit of Nanea’s priests.

bes@2Macc:1:14 @ For Antiochus, as though he would marry her, came into the place, and his friends that were with him, to receive money in name of a dowry.

bes@2Macc:1:15 @ Which when the priests of Nanea had set forth, and he was entered with a small company into the compass of the temple, they shut the temple as soon as Antiochus was come in:

bes@2Macc:1:16 @ And opening a privy door of the roof, they threw stones like thunderbolts, and struck down the captain, hewed them in pieces, smote off their heads and cast them to those that were without.

bes@2Macc:1:18 @ Therefore whereas we are now purposed to keep the purification of the temple upon the five and twentieth day of the month Casleu, we thought it necessary to certify you thereof, that ye also might keep it, as the feast of the tabernacles, and of the fire, which was given us when Neemias offered sacrifice, after that he had builded the temple and the altar.

bes@2Macc:1:19 @ For when our fathers were led into Persia, the priests that were then devout took the fire of the altar privily, and hid it in an hollow place of a pit without water, where they kept it sure, so that the place was unknown to all men.

bes@2Macc:1:20 @ Now after many years, when it pleased God, Neemias, being sent from the king of Persia, did send of the posterity of those priests that had hid it to the fire: but when they told us they found no fire, but thick water;

bes@2Macc:1:21 @ Then commanded he them to draw it up, and to bring it; and when the sacrifices were laid on, Neemias commanded the priests to sprinkle the wood and the things laid thereupon with the water.

bes@2Macc:1:26 @ Receive the sacrifice for thy whole people Israel, and preserve thine own portion, and sanctify it.

bes@2Macc:1:28 @ Punish them that oppress us, and with pride do us wrong.

bes@2Macc:1:32 @ When this was done, there was kindled a flame: but it was consumed by the light that shined from the altar.

bes@2Macc:1:33 @ So when this matter was known, it was told the king of Persia, that in the place, where the priests that were led away had hid the fire, there appeared water, and that Neemias had purified the sacrifices therewith.

bes@2Macc:1:34 @ Then the king, inclosing the place, made it holy, after he had tried the matter.

bes@2Macc:1:36 @ And Neemias called this thing Naphthar, which is as much as to say, a cleansing: but many men call it Nephi.

bes@2Macc:2:1 @ It is also found in the records, that Jeremy the prophet commanded them that were carried away to take of the fire, as it hath been signified:

bes@2Macc:2:2 @ And how that the prophet, having given them the law, charged them not to forget the commandments of the Lord, and that they should not err in their minds, when they see images of silver and gold, with their ornaments.

bes@2Macc:2:3 @ And with other such speeches exhorted he them, that the law should not depart from their hearts.

bes@2Macc:2:4 @ It was also contained in the same writing, that the prophet, being warned of God, commanded the tabernacle and the ark to go with him, as he went forth into the mountain, where Moses climbed up, and saw the heritage of God.

bes@2Macc:2:5 @ And when Jeremy came thither, he found an hollow cave, wherein he laid the tabernacle, and the ark, and the altar of incense, and so stopped the door.

bes@2Macc:2:6 @ And some of those that followed him came to mark the way, but they could not find it.

bes@2Macc:2:7 @ Which when Jeremy perceived, he blamed them, saying, As for that place, it shall be unknown until the time that God gather his people again together, and receive them unto mercy.

bes@2Macc:2:8 @ Then shall the Lord shew them these things, and the glory of the Lord shall appear, and the cloud also, as it was shewed under Moses, and as when Solomon desired that the place might be honourably sanctified.

bes@2Macc:2:9 @ It was also declared, that he being wise offered the sacrifice of dedication, and of the finishing of the temple.

bes@2Macc:2:11 @ And Moses said, Because the sin offering was not to be eaten, it was consumed.

bes@2Macc:2:13 @ The same things also were reported in the writings and commentaries of Neemias; and how he founding a library gathered together the acts of the kings, and the prophets, and of David, and the epistles of the kings concerning the holy gifts.

bes@2Macc:2:14 @ In like manner also Judas gathered together all those things that were lost by reason of the war we had, and they remain with us,

bes@2Macc:2:16 @ Whereas we then are about to celebrate the purification, we have written unto you, and ye shall do well, if ye keep the same days.

bes@2Macc:2:17 @ We hope also, that the God, that delivered all his people, and gave them all an heritage, and the kingdom, and the priesthood, and the sanctuary,

bes@2Macc:2:21 @ And the manifest signs that came from heaven unto those that behaved themselves manfully to their honour for Judaism: so that, being but a few, they overcame the whole country, and chased barbarous multitudes,

bes@2Macc:2:22 @ And recovered again the temple renowned all the world over, and freed the city, and upheld the laws which were going down, the Lord being gracious unto them with all favour:

bes@2Macc:2:24 @ For considering the infinite number, and the difficulty which they find that desire to look into the narrations of the story, for the variety of the matter,

bes@2Macc:2:25 @ We have been careful, that they that will read may have delight, and that they that are desirous to commit to memory might have ease, and that all into whose hands it comes might have profit.

bes@2Macc:2:26 @ Therefore to us, that have taken upon us this painful labour of abridging, it was not easy, but a matter of sweat and watching;

bes@2Macc:2:27 @ Even as it is no ease unto him that prepareth a banquet, and seeketh the benefit of others: yet for the pleasuring of many we will undertake gladly this great pains;

bes@2Macc:2:29 @ For as the master builder of a new house must care for the whole building; but he that undertaketh to set it out, and paint it, must seek out fit things for the adorning thereof: even so I think it is with us.

bes@2Macc:2:31 @ But to use brevity, and avoid much labouring of the work, is to be granted to him that will make an abridgment.

bes@2Macc:2:32 @ Here then will we begin the story: only adding thus much to that which hath been said, that it is a foolish thing to make a long prologue, and to be short in the story itself.

bes@2Macc:3:1 @ Now when the holy city was inhabited with all peace, and the laws were kept very well, because of the godliness of Onias the high priest, and his hatred of wickedness,

bes@2Macc:3:2 @ It came to pass that even the kings themselves did honour the place, and magnify the temple with their best gifts;

bes@2Macc:3:4 @ But one Simon of the tribe of Benjamin, who was made governor of the temple, fell out with the high priest about disorder in the city.

bes@2Macc:3:6 @ And told him that the treasury in Jerusalem was full of infinite sums of money, so that the multitude of their riches, which did not pertain to the account of the sacrifices, was innumerable, and that it was possible to bring all into the king’s hand.

bes@2Macc:3:7 @ Now when Apollonius came to the king, and had shewed him of the money whereof he was told, the king chose out Heliodorus his treasurer, and sent him with a commandment to bring him the foresaid money.

bes@2Macc:3:8 @ So forthwith Heliodorus took his journey; under a colour of visiting the cities of Celosyria and Phenice, but indeed to fulfil the king’s purpose.

bes@2Macc:3:9 @ And when he was come to Jerusalem, and had been courteously received of the high priest of the city, he told him what intelligence was given of the money, and declared wherefore he came, and asked if these things were so indeed.

bes@2Macc:3:11 @ And that some of it belonged to Hircanus son of Tobias, a man of great dignity, and not as that wicked Simon had misinformed: the sum whereof in all was four hundred talents of silver, and two hundred of gold:

bes@2Macc:3:12 @ And that it was altogether impossible that such wrongs should be done unto them, that had committed it to the holiness of the place, and to the majesty and inviolable sanctity of the temple, honoured over all the world.

bes@2Macc:3:13 @ But Heliodorus, because of the king’s commandment given him, said, That in any wise it must be brought into the king’s treasury.

bes@2Macc:3:14 @ So at the day which he appointed he entered in to order this matter: wherefore there was no small agony throughout the whole city.

bes@2Macc:3:15 @ But the priests, prostrating themselves before the altar in their priests’ vestments, called unto heaven upon him that made a law concerning things given to he kept, that they should safely be preserved for such as had committed them to be kept.

bes@2Macc:3:16 @ Then whoso had looked the high priest in the face, it would have wounded his heart: for his countenance and the changing of his colour declared the inward agony of his mind.

bes@2Macc:3:17 @ For the man was so compassed with fear and horror of the body, that it was manifest to them that looked upon him, what sorrow he had now in his heart.

bes@2Macc:3:19 @ And the women, girt with sackcloth under their breasts, abounded in the streets, and the virgins that were kept in ran, some to the gates, and some to the walls, and others looked out of the windows.

bes@2Macc:3:21 @ Then it would have pitied a man to see the falling down of the multitude of all sorts, and the fear of the high priest being in such an agony.

bes@2Macc:3:22 @ They then called upon the Almighty Lord to keep the things committed of trust safe and sure for those that had committed them.

bes@2Macc:3:24 @ Now as he was there present himself with his guard about the treasury, the Lord of spirits, and the Prince of all power, caused a great apparition, so that all that presumed to come in with him were astonished at the power of God, and fainted, and were sore afraid.

bes@2Macc:3:25 @ For there appeared unto them an horse with a terrible rider upon him, and adorned with a very fair covering, and he ran fiercely, and smote at Heliodorus with his forefeet, and it seemed that he that sat upon the horse had complete harness of gold.

bes@2Macc:3:26 @ Moreover two other young men appeared before him, notable in strength, excellent in beauty, and comely in apparel, who stood by him on either side; and scourged him continually, and gave him many sore stripes.

bes@2Macc:3:27 @ And Heliodorus fell suddenly unto the ground, and was compassed with great darkness: but they that were with him took him up, and put him into a litter.

bes@2Macc:3:28 @ Thus him, that lately came with a great train and with all his guard into the said treasury, they carried out, being unable to help himself with his weapons: and manifestly they acknowledged the power of God.

bes@2Macc:3:29 @ For he by the hand of God was cast down, and lay speechless without all hope of life.

bes@2Macc:3:30 @ But they praised the Lord, that had miraculously honoured his own place: for the temple; which a little afore was full of fear and trouble, when the Almighty Lord appeared, was filled with joy and gladness.

bes@2Macc:3:35 @ So Heliodorus, after he had offered sacrifice unto the Lord, and made great vows unto him that had saved his life, and saluted Onias, returned with his host to the king.

bes@2Macc:3:36 @ Then testified he to all men the works of the great God, which he had seen with his eyes.

bes@2Macc:3:37 @ And when the king Heliodorus, who might be a fit man to be sent yet once again to Jerusalem, he said,

bes@2Macc:3:38 @ If thou hast any enemy or traitor, send him thither, and thou shalt receive him well scourged, if he escape with his life: for in that place, no doubt; there is an especial power of God.

bes@2Macc:3:39 @ For he that dwelleth in heaven hath his eye on that place, and defendeth it; and he beateth and destroyeth them that come to hurt it.

bes@2Macc:4:2 @ Thus was he bold to call him a traitor, that had deserved well of the city, and tendered his own nation, and was so zealous of the laws.

bes@2Macc:4:3 @ But when their hatred went so far, that by one of Simon’s faction murders were committed,

bes@2Macc:4:6 @ For he saw that it was impossible that the state should continue quiet, and Simon leave his folly, unless the king did look thereunto.

bes@2Macc:4:9 @ Beside this, he promised to assign an hundred and fifty more, if he might have licence to set him up a place for exercise, and for the training up of youth in the fashions of the heathen, and to write them of Jerusalem by the name of Antiochians.

bes@2Macc:4:10 @ Which when the king had granted, and he had gotten into his hand the rule he forthwith brought his own nation to Greekish fashion.

bes@2Macc:4:11 @ And the royal privileges granted of special favour to the Jews by the means of John the father of Eupolemus, who went ambassador to Rome for amity and aid, he took away; and putting down the governments which were according to the law, he brought up new customs against the law:

bes@2Macc:4:12 @ For he built gladly a place of exercise under the tower itself, and brought the chief young men under his subjection, and made them wear a hat.

bes@2Macc:4:16 @ By reason whereof sore calamity came upon them: for they had them to be their enemies and avengers, whose custom they followed so earnestly, and unto whom they desired to be like in all things.

bes@2Macc:4:17 @ For it is not a light thing to do wickedly against the laws of God: but the time following shall declare these things.

bes@2Macc:4:18 @ Now when the game that was used every faith year was kept at Tyrus, the king being present,

bes@2Macc:4:19 @ This ungracious Jason sent special messengers from Jerusalem, who were Antiochians, to carry three hundred drachms of silver to the sacrifice of Hercules, which even the bearers thereof thought fit not to bestow upon the sacrifice, because it was not convenient, but to be reserved for other charges.

bes@2Macc:4:20 @ This money then, in regard of the sender, was appointed to Hercules’ sacrifice; but because of the bearers thereof, it was employed to the making of gallies.

bes@2Macc:4:22 @ Where he was honourably received of Jason, and of the city, and was brought in with torch alight, and with great shoutings: and so afterward went with his host unto Phenice.

bes@2Macc:4:25 @ So he came with the king’s mandate, bringing nothing worthy the high priesthood, but having the fury of a cruel tyrant, and the rage of a savage beast.

bes@2Macc:4:26 @ Then Jason, who had undermined his own brother, being undermined by another, was compelled to flee into the country of the Ammonites.

bes@2Macc:4:27 @ So Menelaus got the principality: but as for the money that he had promised unto the king, he took no good order for it, albeit Sostratis the ruler of the castle required it:

bes@2Macc:4:31 @ Then came the king in all haste to appease matters, leaving Andronicus, a man in authority, for his deputy.

bes@2Macc:4:32 @ Now Menelaus, supposing that he had gotten a convenient time, stole certain vessels of gold out of the temple, and gave some of them to Andronicus, and some he sold into Tyrus and the cities round about.

bes@2Macc:4:33 @ Which when Onias knew of a surety, he reproved him, and withdrew himself into a sanctuary at Daphne, that lieth by Antiochia.

bes@2Macc:4:34 @ Wherefore Menelaus, taking Andronicus apart, prayed, him to get Onias into his hands; who being persuaded thereunto, and coming to Onias in deceit, gave him his right hand with oaths; and though he were suspected by him, yet persuaded he him to come forth of the sanctuary: whom forthwith he shut up without regard of justice.

bes@2Macc:4:36 @ And when the king was come again from the places about Cilicia, the Jews that were in the city, and certain of the Greeks that abhorred the fact also, complained because Onias was slain without cause.

bes@2Macc:4:37 @ Therefore Antiochus was heartily sorry, and moved to pity, and wept, because of the sober and modest behaviour of him that was dead.

bes@2Macc:4:38 @ And being kindled with anger, forthwith he took away Andronicus his purple, and rent off his clothes, and leading him through the whole city unto that very place, where he had committed impiety against Onias, there slew he the cursed murderer. Thus the Lord rewarded him his punishment, as he had deserved.

bes@2Macc:4:39 @ Now when many sacrileges had been committed in the city by Lysimachus with the consent of Menelaus, and the fruit thereof was spread abroad, the multitude gathered themselves together against Lysimachus, many vessels of gold being already carried away.

bes@2Macc:4:40 @ Whereupon the common people rising, and being filled with rage, Lysimachus armed about three thousand men, and began first to offer violence; one Auranus being the leader, a man far gone in years, and no less in folly.

bes@2Macc:4:46 @ Whereupon Ptolemee taking the king aside into a certain gallery, as it were to take the air, brought him to be of another mind:

bes@2Macc:4:47 @ Insomuch that he discharged Menelaus from the accusations, who notwithstanding was cause of all the mischief: and those poor men, who, if they had told their cause, yea, before the Scythians, should have been judged innocent, them he condemned to death.

bes@2Macc:4:48 @ Thus they that followed the matter for the city, and for the people, and for the holy vessels, did soon suffer unjust punishment.

bes@2Macc:4:49 @ Wherefore even they of Tyrus, moved with hatred of that wicked deed, caused them to be honourably buried.

bes@2Macc:4:50 @ And so through the covetousness of them that were of power Menelaus remained still in authority, increasing in malice, and being a great traitor to the citizens.

bes@2Macc:5:2 @ And then it happened, that through all the city, for the space almost of forty days, there were seen horsemen running in the air, in cloth of gold, and armed with lances, like a band of soldiers,

bes@2Macc:5:3 @ And troops of horsemen in array, encountering and running one against another, with shaking of shields, and multitude of pikes, and drawing of swords, and casting of darts, and glittering of golden ornaments, and harness of all sorts.

bes@2Macc:5:4 @ Wherefore every man prayed that that apparition might turn to good.

bes@2Macc:5:5 @ Now when there was gone forth a false rumour, as though Antiochus had been dead, Jason took at the least a thousand men, and suddenly made an assault upon the city; and they that were upon the walls being put back, and the city at length taken, Menelaus fled into the castle:

bes@2Macc:5:6 @ But Jason slew his own citizens without mercy, not considering that to get the day of them of his own nation would be a most unhappy day for him; but thinking they had been his enemies, and not his countrymen, whom he conquered.

bes@2Macc:5:7 @ Howbeit for all this he obtained not the principality, but at the last received shame for the reward of his treason, and fled again into the country of the Ammonites.

bes@2Macc:5:8 @ In the end therefore he had an unhappy return, being accused before Aretas the king of the Arabians, fleeing from city to city, pursued of all men, hated as a forsaker of the laws, and being had in abomination as an open enemy of his country and countrymen, he was cast out into Egypt.

bes@2Macc:5:10 @ And he that had cast out many unburied had none to mourn for him, nor any solemn funerals at all, nor sepulchre with his fathers.

bes@2Macc:5:11 @ Now when this that was done came to the king’s ear, he thought that Judea had revolted: whereupon removing out of Egypt in a furious mind, he took the city by force of arms,

bes@2Macc:5:14 @ And there were destroyed within the space of three whole days fourscore thousand, whereof forty thousand were slain in the conflict; and no fewer sold than slain.

bes@2Macc:5:15 @ Yet was he not content with this, but presumed to go into the most holy temple of all the world; Menelaus, that traitor to the laws, and to his own country, being his guide:

bes@2Macc:5:16 @ And taking the holy vessels with polluted hands, and with profane hands pulling down the things that were dedicated by other kings to the augmentation and glory and honour of the place, he gave them away.

bes@2Macc:5:17 @ And so haughty was Antiochus in mind, that he considered not that the Lord was angry for a while for the sins of them that dwelt in the city, and therefore his eye was not upon the place.

bes@2Macc:5:18 @ For had they not been formerly wrapped in many sins, this man, as soon as he had come, had forthwith been scourged, and put back from his presumption, as Heliodorus was, whom Seleucus the king sent to view the treasury.

bes@2Macc:5:20 @ And therefore the place itself, that was partaker with them of the adversity that happened to the nation, did afterward communicate in the benefits sent from the Lord: and as it was forsaken in the wrath of the Almighty, so again, the great Lord being reconciled, it was set up with all glory.

bes@2Macc:5:23 @ And at Garizim, Andronicus; and besides, Menelaus, who worse than all the rest bare an heavy hand over the citizens, having a malicious mind against his countrymen the Jews.

bes@2Macc:5:24 @ He sent also that detestable ringleader Apollonius with an army of two and twenty thousand, commanding him to slay all those that were in their best age, and to sell the women and the younger sort:

bes@2Macc:5:26 @ And so he slew all them that were gone to the celebrating of the sabbath, and running through the city with weapons slew great multitudes.

bes@2Macc:5:27 @ But Judas Maccabeus with nine others, or thereabout, withdrew himself into the wilderness, and lived in the mountains after the manner of beasts, with his company, who fed on herbs continually, lest they should be partakers of the pollution.

bes@2Macc:6:2 @ And to pollute also the temple in Jerusalem, and to call it the temple of Jupiter Olympius; and that in Garizim, of Jupiter the Defender of strangers, as they did desire that dwelt in the place.

bes@2Macc:6:4 @ For the temple was filled with riot and revelling by the Gentiles, who dallied with harlots, and had to do with women within the circuit of the holy places, and besides that brought in things that were not lawful.

bes@2Macc:6:5 @ The altar also was filled with profane things, which the law forbiddeth.

bes@2Macc:6:6 @ Neither was it lawful for a man to keep sabbath days or ancient fasts, or to profess himself at all to be a Jew.

bes@2Macc:6:7 @ And in the day of the king’s birth every month they were brought by bitter constraint to eat of the sacrifices; and when the fast of Bacchus was kept, the Jews were compelled to go in procession to Bacchus, carrying ivy.

bes@2Macc:6:8 @ Moreover there went out a decree to the neighbour cities of the heathen, by the suggestion of Ptolemee, against the Jews, that they should observe the same fashions, and be partakers of their sacrifices:

bes@2Macc:6:10 @ For there were two women brought, who had circumcised their children; whom when they had openly led round about the city, the babes handing at their breasts, they cast them down headlong from the wall.

bes@2Macc:6:12 @ Now I beseech those that read this book, that they be not discouraged for these calamities, but that they judge those punishments not to be for destruction, but for a chastening of our nation.

bes@2Macc:6:13 @ For it is a token of his great goodness, when wicked doers are not suffered any long time, but forthwith punished.

bes@2Macc:6:14 @ For not as with other nations, whom the Lord patiently forbeareth to punish, till they be come to the fulness of their sins, so dealeth he with us,

bes@2Macc:6:16 @ And therefore he never withdraweth his mercy from us: and though he punish with adversity, yet doth he never forsake his people.

bes@2Macc:6:19 @ But he, choosing rather to die gloriously, than to live stained with such an abomination, spit it forth, and came of his own accord to the torment,

bes@2Macc:6:20 @ As it behoved them to come, that are resolute to stand out against such things, as are not lawful for love of life to be tasted.

bes@2Macc:6:21 @ But they that had the charge of that wicked feast, for the old acquaintance they had with the man, taking him aside, besought him to bring flesh of his own provision, such as was lawful for him to use, and make as if he did eat of the flesh taken from the sacrifice commanded by the king;

bes@2Macc:6:22 @ That in so doing he might be delivered from death, and for the old friendship with them find favour.

bes@2Macc:6:24 @ For it becometh not our age, said he, in any wise to dissemble, whereby many young persons might think that Eleazar, being fourscore years old and ten, were now gone to a strange religion;

bes@2Macc:6:25 @ And so they through mine hypocrisy, and desire to live a little time and a moment longer, should be deceived by me, and I get a stain to mine old age, and make it abominable.

bes@2Macc:6:26 @ For though for the present time I should be delivered from the punishment of men: yet should I not escape the hand of the Almighty, neither alive, nor dead.

bes@2Macc:6:29 @ They that led him changing the good will they bare him a little before into hatred, because the foresaid speeches proceeded, as they thought, from a desperate mind.

bes@2Macc:6:30 @ But when he was ready to die with stripes, he groaned, and said, It is manifest unto the Lord, that hath the holy knowledge, that whereas I might have been delivered from death, I now endure sore pains in body by being beaten: but in soul am well content to suffer these things, because I fear him.

bes@2Macc:7:1 @ It came to pass also, that seven brethren with their mother were taken, and compelled by the king against the law to taste swine’s flesh, and were tormented with scourges and whips.

bes@2Macc:7:4 @ Which forthwith being heated, he commanded to cut out the tongue of him that spake first, and to cut off the utmost parts of his body, the rest of his brethren and his mother looking on.

bes@2Macc:7:5 @ Now when he was thus maimed in all his members, he commanded him being yet alive to be brought to the fire, and to be fried in the pan: and as the vapour of the pan was for a good space dispersed, they exhorted one another with the mother to die manfully, saying thus,

bes@2Macc:7:6 @ The Lord God looketh upon us, and in truth hath comfort in us, as Moses in his song, which witnessed to their faces, declared, saying, And he shall be comforted in his servants.

bes@2Macc:7:7 @ So when the first was dead after this number, they brought the second to make him a mocking stock: and when they had pulled off the skin of his head with the hair, they asked him, Wilt thou eat, before thou be punished throughout every member of thy body?

bes@2Macc:7:12 @ Insomuch that the king, and they that were with him, marvelled at the young man’s courage, for that he nothing regarded the pains.

bes@2Macc:7:14 @ So when he was ready to die he said thus, It is good, being put to death by men, to look for hope from God to be raised up again by him: as for thee, thou shalt have no resurrection to life.

bes@2Macc:7:18 @ After him also they brought the sixth, who being ready to die said, Be not deceived without cause: for we suffer these things for ourselves, having sinned against our God: therefore marvellous things are done unto us.

bes@2Macc:7:20 @ But the mother was marvellous above all, and worthy of honourable memory: for when she saw her seven sons slain within the space of one day, she bare it with a good courage, because of the hope that she had in the Lord.

bes@2Macc:7:21 @ Yea, she exhorted every one of them in her own language, filled with courageous spirits; and stirring up her womanish thoughts with a manly stomach, she said unto them,

bes@2Macc:7:22 @ I cannot tell how ye came into my womb: for I neither gave you breath nor life, neither was it I that formed the members of every one of you;

bes@2Macc:7:24 @ Now Antiochus, thinking himself despised, and suspecting it to be a reproachful speech, whilst the youngest was yet alive, did not only exhort him by words, but also assured him with oaths, that he would make him both a rich and a happy man, if he would turn from the laws of his fathers; and that also he would take him for his friend, and trust him with affairs.

bes@2Macc:7:26 @ And when he had exhorted her with many words, she promised him that she would counsel her son.

bes@2Macc:7:27 @ But she bowing herself toward him, laughing the cruel tyrant to scorn, spake in her country language on this manner; O my son, have pity upon me that bare thee nine months in my womb, and gave thee such three years, and nourished thee, and brought thee up unto this age, and endured the troubles of education.

bes@2Macc:7:29 @ Fear not this tormentor, but, being worthy of thy brethren, take thy death that I may receive thee again in mercy with thy brethren.

bes@2Macc:7:30 @ Whiles she was yet speaking these words, the young man said, Whom wait ye for? I will not obey the king’s commandment: but I will obey the commandment of the law that was given unto our fathers by Moses.

bes@2Macc:7:33 @ And though the living Lord be angry with us a little while for our chastening and correction, yet shall he be at one again with his servants.

bes@2Macc:7:34 @ But thou, O godless man, and of all other most wicked, be not lifted up without a cause, nor puffed up with uncertain hopes, lifting up thy hand against the servants of God:

bes@2Macc:7:39 @ Than the king’ being in a rage, handed him worse than all the rest, and took it grievously that he was mocked.

bes@2Macc:8:1 @ Then Judas Maccabeus, and they that were with him, went privily into the towns, and called their kinsfolks together, and took unto them all such as continued in the Jews’ religion, and assembled about six thousand men.

bes@2Macc:8:2 @ And they called upon the Lord, that he would look upon the people that was trodden down of all; and also pity the temple profaned of ungodly men;

bes@2Macc:8:3 @ And that he would have compassion upon the city, sore defaced, and ready to be made even with the ground; and hear the blood that cried unto him,

bes@2Macc:8:4 @ And remember the wicked slaughter of harmless infants, and the blasphemies committed against his name; and that he would shew his hatred against the wicked.

bes@2Macc:8:5 @ Now when Maccabeus had his company about him, he could not be withstood by the heathen: for the wrath of the Lord was turned into mercy.

bes@2Macc:8:6 @ Therefore he came at unawares, and burnt up towns and cities, and got into his hands the most commodious places, and overcame and put to flight no small number of his enemies.

bes@2Macc:8:7 @ But specially took he advantage of the night for such privy attempts, insomuch that the fruit of his holiness was spread every where.

bes@2Macc:8:8 @ So when Philip saw that this man increased by little and little, and that things prospered with him still more and more, he wrote unto Ptolemeus, the governor of Celosyria and Phenice, to yield more aid to the king’s affairs.

bes@2Macc:8:9 @ Then forthwith choosing Nicanor the son of Patroclus, one of his special friends, he sent him with no fewer than twenty thousand of all nations under him, to root out the whole generation of the Jews; and with him he joined also Gorgias a captain, who in matters of war had great experience.

bes@2Macc:8:11 @ Wherefore immediately he sent to the cities upon the sea coast, proclaiming a sale of the captive Jews, and promising that they should have fourscore and ten bodies for one talent, not expecting the vengeance that was to follow upon him from the Almighty God.

bes@2Macc:8:12 @ Now when word was brought unto Judas of Nicanor’s coming, and he had imparted unto those that were with him that the army was at hand,

bes@2Macc:8:14 @ Others sold all that they had left, and withal besought the Lord to deliver them, sold by the wicked Nicanor before they met together:

bes@2Macc:8:15 @ And if not for their own sakes, yet for the covenants he had made with their fathers, and for his holy and glorious name’s sake, by which they were called.

bes@2Macc:8:16 @ So Maccabeus called his men together unto the number of six thousand, and exhorted them not to be stricken with terror of the enemy, nor to fear the great multitude of the heathen, who came wrongly against them; but to fight manfully,

bes@2Macc:8:17 @ And to set before their eyes the injury that they had unjustly done to the holy place, and the cruel handling of the city, whereof they made a mockery, and also the taking away of the government of their forefathers:

bes@2Macc:8:20 @ And he told them of the battle that they had in Babylon with the Galatians, how they came but eight thousand in all to the business, with four thousand Macedonians, and that the Macedonians being perplexed, the eight thousand destroyed an hundred and twenty thousand because of the help that they had from heaven, and so received a great booty.

bes@2Macc:8:21 @ Thus when he had made them bold with these words, and ready to die for the law and the country, he divided his army into four parts;

bes@2Macc:8:22 @ And joined with himself his own brethren, leaders of each band, to wit Simon, and Joseph, and Jonathan, giving each one fifteen hundred men.

bes@2Macc:8:26 @ For it was the day before the sabbath, and therefore they would no longer pursue them.

bes@2Macc:8:29 @ When this was done, and they had made a common supplication, they besought the merciful Lord to be reconciled with his servants for ever.

bes@2Macc:8:30 @ Moreover of those that were with Timotheus and Bacchides, who fought against them, they slew above twenty thousand, and very easily got high and strong holds, and divided among themselves many spoils more, and made the maimed, orphans, widows, yea, and the aged also, equal in spoils with themselves.

bes@2Macc:8:32 @ They slew also Philarches, that wicked person, who was with Timotheus, and had annoyed the Jews many ways.

bes@2Macc:8:33 @ Furthermore at such time as they kept the feast for the victory in their country they burnt Callisthenes, that had set fire upon the holy gates, who had fled into a little house; and so he received a reward meet for his wickedness.

bes@2Macc:8:35 @ He was through the help of the Lord brought down by them, of whom he made least account; and putting off his glorious apparel, and discharging his company, he came like a fugitive servant through the midland unto Antioch having very great dishonour, for that his host was destroyed.

bes@2Macc:9:1 @ About that time came Antiochus with dishonour out of the country of Persia

bes@2Macc:9:2 @ For he had entered the city called Persepolis, and went about to rob the temple, and to hold the city; whereupon the multitude running to defend themselves with their weapons put them to flight; and so it happened, that Antiochus being put to flight of the inhabitants returned with shame.

bes@2Macc:9:4 @ Then swelling with anger. he thought to avenge upon the Jews the disgrace done unto him by those that made him flee. Therefore commanded he his chariotman to drive without ceasing, and to dispatch the journey, the judgement of God now following him. For he had spoken proudly in this sort, That he would come to Jerusalem and make it a common burying place of the Jews.

bes@2Macc:9:5 @ But the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, smote him with an incurable and invisible plague: or as soon as he had spoken these words, a pain of the bowels that was remediless came upon him, and sore torments of the inner parts;

bes@2Macc:9:6 @ And that most justly: for he had tormented other men’s bowels with many and strange torments.

bes@2Macc:9:7 @ Howbeit he nothing at all ceased from his bragging, but still was filled with pride, breathing out fire in his rage against the Jews, and commanding to haste the journey: but it came to pass that he fell down from his chariot, carried violently; so that having a sore fall, all the members of his body were much pained.

bes@2Macc:9:8 @ And thus he that a little afore thought he might command the waves of the sea, (so proud was he beyond the condition of man) and weigh the high mountains in a balance, was now cast on the ground, and carried in an horselitter, shewing forth unto all the manifest power of God.

bes@2Macc:9:10 @ And the man, that thought a little afore he could reach to the stars of heaven, no man could endure to carry for his intolerable stink.

bes@2Macc:9:12 @ And when he himself could not abide his own smell, he said these words, It is meet to be subject unto God, and that a man that is mortal should not proudly think of himself if he were God.

bes@2Macc:9:14 @ That the holy city (to the which he was going in haste to lay it even with the ground, and to make it a common buryingplace,) he would set at liberty:

bes@2Macc:9:15 @ And as touching the Jews, whom he had judged not worthy so much as to be buried, but to be cast out with their children to be devoured of the fowls and wild beasts, he would make them all equals to the citizens of Athens:

bes@2Macc:9:16 @ And the holy temple, which before he had spoiled, he would garnish with goodly gifts, and restore all the holy vessels with many more, and out of his own revenue defray the charges belonging to the sacrifices:

bes@2Macc:9:17 @ Yea, and that also he would become a Jew himself, and go through all the world that was inhabited, and declare the power of God.

bes@2Macc:9:18 @ But for all this his pains would not cease: for the just judgement of God was come upon him: therefore despairing of his health, he wrote unto the Jews the letter underwritten, containing the form of a supplication, after this manner:

bes@2Macc:9:19 @ Antiochus, king and governor, to the good Jews his citizens wisheth much joy, health, and prosperity:

bes@2Macc:9:21 @ As for me, I was weak, or else I would have remembered kindly your honour and good will returning out of Persia, and being taken with a grievous disease, I thought it necessary to care for the common safety of all:

bes@2Macc:9:25 @ Again, considering how that the princes that are borderers and neighbours unto my kingdom wait for opportunities, and expect what shall be the event. I have appointed my son Antiochus king, whom I often committed and commended unto many of you, when I went up into the high provinces; to whom I have written as followeth:

bes@2Macc:9:26 @ Therefore I pray and request you to remember the benefits that I have done unto you generally, and in special, and that every man will be still faithful to me and my son.

bes@2Macc:9:29 @ And Philip, that was brought up with him, carried away his body, who also fearing the son of Antiochus went into Egypt to Ptolemeus Philometor.

bes@2Macc:10:1 @ Now Maccabeus and his company, the Lord guiding them, recovered the temple and the city:

bes@2Macc:10:4 @ When that was done, they fell flat down, and besought the Lord that they might come no more into such troubles; but if they sinned any more against him, that he himself would chasten them with mercy, and that they might not be delivered unto the blasphemous and barbarous nations.

bes@2Macc:10:5 @ Now upon the same day that the strangers profaned the temple, on the very same day it was cleansed again, even the five and twentieth day of the same month, which is Casleu.

bes@2Macc:10:6 @ And they kept the eight days with gladness, as in the feast of the tabernacles, remembering that not long afore they had held the feast of the tabernacles, when as they wandered in the mountains and dens like beasts.

bes@2Macc:10:10 @ Now will we declare the acts of Antiochus Eupator, who was the son of this wicked man, gathering briefly the calamities of the wars.

bes@2Macc:10:12 @ For Ptolemeus, that was called Macron, choosing rather to do justice unto the Jews for the wrong that had been done unto them, endeavoured to continue peace with them.

bes@2Macc:10:13 @ Whereupon being accused of the king’s friends before Eupator, and called traitor at every word because he had left Cyprus, that Philometor had committed unto him, and departed to Antiochus Epiphanes, and seeing that he was in no honourable place, he was so discouraged, that he poisoned himself and died.

bes@2Macc:10:14 @ But when Gorgias was governor of the holds, he hired soldiers, and nourished war continually with the Jews:

bes@2Macc:10:15 @ And therewithal the Idumeans, having gotten into their hands the most commodious holds, kept the Jews occupied, and receiving those that were banished from Jerusalem, they went about to nourish war.

bes@2Macc:10:16 @ Then they that were with Maccabeus made supplication, and besought God that he would be their helper; and so they ran with violence upon the strong holds of the Idumeans,

bes@2Macc:10:19 @ Maccabeus left Simon and Joseph, and Zaccheus also, and them that were with him, who were enough to besiege them, and departed himself unto those places which more needed his help.

bes@2Macc:10:20 @ Now they that were with Simon, being led with covetousness, were persuaded for money through certain of those that were in the castle, and took seventy thousand drachms, and let some of them escape.

bes@2Macc:10:21 @ But when it was told Maccabeus what was done, he called the governors of the people together, and accused those men, that they had sold their brethren for money, and set their enemies free to fight against them.

bes@2Macc:10:22 @ So he slew those that were found traitors, and immediately took the two castles.

bes@2Macc:10:23 @ And having good success with his weapons in all things he took in hand, he slew in the two holds more than twenty thousand.

bes@2Macc:10:24 @ Now Timotheus, whom the Jews had overcome before, when he had gathered a great multitude of foreign forces, and horses out of Asia not a few, came as though he would take Jewry by force of arms.

bes@2Macc:10:25 @ But when he drew near, they that were with Maccabeus turned themselves to pray unto God, and sprinkled earth upon their heads, and girded their loins with sackcloth,

bes@2Macc:10:27 @ So after the prayer they took their weapons, and went on further from the city: and when they drew near to their enemies, they kept by themselves.

bes@2Macc:10:28 @ Now the sun being newly risen, they joined both together; the one part having together with their virtue their refuge also unto the Lord for a pledge of their success and victory: the other side making their rage leader of their battle

bes@2Macc:10:29 @ But when the battle waxed strong, there appeared unto the enemies from heaven five comely men upon horses, with bridles of gold, and two of them led the Jews,

bes@2Macc:10:30 @ And took Maccabeus betwixt them, and covered him on every side weapons, and kept him safe, but shot arrows and lightnings against the enemies: so that being confounded with blindness, and full of trouble, they were killed.

bes@2Macc:10:33 @ But they that were with Maccabeus laid siege against the fortress courageously four days.

bes@2Macc:10:34 @ And they that were within, trusting to the strength of the place, blasphemed exceedingly, and uttered wicked words.

bes@2Macc:10:35 @ Nevertheless upon the fifth day early twenty young men of Maccabeus’ company, inflamed with anger because of the blasphemies, assaulted the wall manly, and with a fierce courage killed all that they met withal.

bes@2Macc:10:36 @ Others likewise ascending after them, whiles they were busied with them that were within, burnt the towers, and kindling fires burnt the blasphemers alive; and others broke open the gates, and, having received in the rest of the army, took the city,

bes@2Macc:10:37 @ And killed Timotheus, that was hid in a certain pit, and Chereas his brother, with Apollophanes.

bes@2Macc:10:38 @ When this was done, they praised the Lord with psalms and thanksgiving, who had done so great things for Israel, and given them the victory.

bes@2Macc:11:2 @ And when he had gathered about fourscore thousand with all the horsemen, he came against the Jews, thinking to make the city an habitation of the Gentiles,

bes@2Macc:11:4 @ Not at all considering the power of God but puffed up with his ten thousands of footmen, and his thousands of horsemen, and his fourscore elephants.

bes@2Macc:11:5 @ So he came to Judea, and drew near to Bethsura, which was a strong town, but distant from Jerusalem about five furlongs, and he laid sore siege unto it.

bes@2Macc:11:6 @ Now when they that were with Maccabeus heard that he besieged the holds, they and all the people with lamentation and tears besought the Lord that he would send a good angel to deliver Israel.

bes@2Macc:11:7 @ Then Maccabeus himself first of all took weapons, exhorting the other that they would jeopard themselves together with him to help their brethren: so they went forth together with a willing mind.

bes@2Macc:11:8 @ And as they were at Jerusalem, there appeared before them on horseback one in white clothing, shaking his armour of gold.

bes@2Macc:11:9 @ Then they praised the merciful God all together, and took heart, insomuch that they were ready not only to fight with men, but with most cruel beasts, and to pierce through walls of iron.

bes@2Macc:11:13 @ Who, as he was a man of understanding, casting with himself what loss he had had, and considering that the Hebrews could not be overcome, because the Almighty God helped them, he sent unto them,

bes@2Macc:11:14 @ And persuaded them to agree to all reasonable conditions, and promised that he would persuade the king that he must needs be a friend unto them.

bes@2Macc:11:15 @ Then Maccabeus consented to all that Lysias desired, being careful of the common good; and whatsoever Maccabeus wrote unto Lysias concerning the Jews, the king granted it.

bes@2Macc:11:16 @ For there were letters written unto the Jews from Lysias to this effect: Lysias unto the people of the Jews sendeth greeting:

bes@2Macc:11:17 @ John and Absalon, who were sent from you, delivered me the petition subscribed, and made request for the performance of the contents thereof.

bes@2Macc:11:20 @ But of the particulars I have given order both to these and the other that came from me, to commune with you.

bes@2Macc:11:30 @ Wherefore they that will depart shall have safe conduct till the thirtieth day of Xanthicus with security.

bes@2Macc:11:34 @ The Romans also sent unto them a letter containing these words: Quintus Memmius and Titus Manlius, ambassadors of the Romans, send greeting unto the people of the Jews.

bes@2Macc:11:35 @ Whatsoever Lysias the king’s cousin hath granted, therewith we also are well pleased.

bes@2Macc:11:36 @ But touching such things as he judged to be referred to the king, after ye have advised thereof, send one forthwith, that we may declare as it is convenient for you: for we are now going to Antioch.

bes@2Macc:11:37 @ Therefore send some with speed, that we may know what is your mind.

bes@2Macc:12:3 @ The men of Joppa also did such an ungodly deed: they prayed the Jews that dwelt among them to go with their wives and children into the boats which they had prepared, as though they had meant them no hurt.

bes@2Macc:12:4 @ Who accepted of it according to the common decree of the city, as being desirous to live in peace, and suspecting nothing: but when they were gone forth into the deep, they drowned no less than two hundred of them.

bes@2Macc:12:5 @ When Judas heard of this cruelty done unto his countrymen, he commanded those that were with him to make them ready.

bes@2Macc:12:6 @ And calling upon God the righteous Judge, he came against those murderers of his brethren, and burnt the haven by night, and set the boats on fire, and those that fled thither he slew.

bes@2Macc:12:7 @ And when the town was shut up, he went backward, as if he would return to root out all them of the city of Joppa.

bes@2Macc:12:8 @ But when he heard that the Jamnites were minded to do in like manner unto the Jews that dwelt among them,

bes@2Macc:12:9 @ He came upon the Jamnites also by night, and set fire on the haven and the navy, so that the light of the fire was seen at Jerusalem two hundred and forty furlongs off.

bes@2Macc:12:12 @ Then Judas, thinking indeed that they would be profitable in many things, granted them peace: whereupon they shook hands, and so they departed to their tents.

bes@2Macc:12:13 @ He went also about to make a bridge to a certain strong city, which was fenced about with walls, and inhabited by people of divers countries; and the name of it was Caspis.

bes@2Macc:12:14 @ But they that were within it put such trust in the strength of the walls and provision of victuals, that they behaved themselves rudely toward them that were with Judas, railing and blaspheming, and uttering such words as were not to be spoken.

bes@2Macc:12:15 @ Wherefore Judas with his company, calling upon the great Lord of the world, who without rams or engines of war did cast down Jericho in the time of Joshua, gave a fierce assault against the walls,

bes@2Macc:12:16 @ And took the city by the will of God, and made unspeakable slaughters, insomuch that a lake two furlongs broad near adjoining thereunto, being filled full, was seen running with blood.

bes@2Macc:12:19 @ Howbeit Dositheus and Sosipater, who were of Maccabeus’ captains, went forth, and slew those that Timotheus had left in the fortress, above ten thousand men.

bes@2Macc:12:21 @ Now when Timotheus had knowledge of Judas’ coming, he sent the women and children and the other baggage unto a fortress called Carnion: for the town was hard to besiege, and uneasy to come unto, by reason of the straitness of all the places.

bes@2Macc:12:22 @ But when Judas his first band came in sight, the enemies, being smitten with fear and terror through the appearing of him who seeth all things, fled amain, one running into this way, another that way, so as that they were often hurt of their own men, and wounded with the points of their own swords.

bes@2Macc:12:24 @ Moreover Timotheus himself fell into the hands of Dositheus and Sosipater, whom he besought with much craft to let him go with his life, because he had many of the Jews’ parents, and the brethren of some of them, who, if they put him to death, should not be regarded.

bes@2Macc:12:25 @ So when he had assured them with many words that he would restore them without hurt, according to the agreement, they let him go for the saving of their brethren.

bes@2Macc:12:27 @ And after he had put to flight and destroyed them, Judas removed the host toward Ephron, a strong city, wherein Lysias abode, and a great multitude of divers nations, and the strong young men kept the walls, and defended them mightily: wherein also was great provision of engines and darts.

bes@2Macc:12:28 @ But when Judas and his company had called upon Almighty God, who with his power breaketh the strength of his enemies, they won the city, and slew twenty and five thousand of them that were within,

bes@2Macc:12:30 @ But when the Jews that dwelt there had testified that the Scythopolitans dealt lovingly with them, and entreated them kindly in the time of their adversity;

bes@2Macc:12:33 @ Who came out with three thousand men of foot and four hundred horsemen.

bes@2Macc:12:34 @ And it happened that in their fighting together a few of the Jews were slain.

bes@2Macc:12:35 @ At which time Dositheus, one of Bacenor’s company, who was on horseback, and a strong man, was still upon Gorgias, and taking hold of his coat drew him by force; and when he would have taken that cursed man alive, a horseman of Thracia coming upon him smote off his shoulder, so that Gorgias fled unto Marisa.

bes@2Macc:12:36 @ Now when they that were with Gorgias had fought long, and were weary, Judas called upon the Lord, that he would shew himself to be their helper and leader of the battle.

bes@2Macc:12:37 @ And with that he began in his own language, and sung psalms with a loud voice, and rushing unawares upon Gorgias’ men, he put them to flight.

bes@2Macc:12:38 @ So Judas gathered his host, and came into the city of Odollam, And when the seventh day came, they purified themselves, as the custom was, and kept the sabbath in the same place.

bes@2Macc:12:39 @ And upon the day following, as the use had been, Judas and his company came to take up the bodies of them that were slain, and to bury them with their kinsmen in their fathers’ graves.

bes@2Macc:12:40 @ Now under the coats of every one that was slain they found things consecrated to the idols of the Jamnites, which is forbidden the Jews by the law. Then every man saw that this was the cause wherefore they were slain.

bes@2Macc:12:42 @ Betook themselves unto prayer, and besought him that the sin committed might wholly be put out of remembrance. Besides, that noble Judas exhorted the people to keep themselves from sin, forsomuch as they saw before their eyes the things that came to pass for the sins of those that were slain.

bes@2Macc:12:43 @ And when he had made a gathering throughout the company to the sum of two thousand drachms of silver, he sent it to Jerusalem to offer a sin offering, doing therein very well and honestly, in that he was mindful of the resurrection:

bes@2Macc:12:44 @ For if he had not hoped that they that were slain should have risen again, it had been superfluous and vain to pray for the dead.

bes@2Macc:12:45 @ And also in that he perceived that there was great favour laid up for those that died godly, it was an holy and good thought. Whereupon he made a reconciliation for the dead, that they might be delivered from sin.

bes@2Macc:13:1 @ In the hundred forty and ninth year it was told Judas, that Antiochus Eupator was coming with a great power into Judea,

bes@2Macc:13:2 @ And with him Lysias his protector, and ruler of his affairs, having either of them a Grecian power of footmen, an hundred and ten thousand, and horsemen five thousand and three hundred, and elephants two and twenty, and three hundred chariots armed with hooks.

bes@2Macc:13:3 @ Menelaus also joined himself with them, and with great dissimulation encouraged Antiochus, not for the safeguard of the country, but because he thought to have been made governor.

bes@2Macc:13:5 @ Now there was in that place a tower of fifty cubits high, full of ashes, and it had a round instrument which on every side hanged down into the ashes.

bes@2Macc:13:6 @ And whosoever was condemned of sacrilege, or had committed any other grievous crime, there did all men thrust him unto death.

bes@2Macc:13:7 @ Such a death it happened that wicked man to die, not having so much as burial in the earth; and that most justly:

bes@2Macc:13:8 @ For inasmuch as he had committed many sins about the altar, whose fire and ashes were holy, he received his death in ashes.

bes@2Macc:13:9 @ Now the king came with a barbarous and haughty mind to do far worse to the Jews, than had been done in his father’s time.

bes@2Macc:13:10 @ Which things when Judas perceived, he commanded the multitude to call upon the Lord night and day, that if ever at any other time, he would now also help them, being at the point to be put from their law, from their country, and from the holy temple:

bes@2Macc:13:11 @ And that he would not suffer the people, that had even now been but a little refreshed, to be in subjection to the blasphemous nations.

bes@2Macc:13:12 @ So when they had all done this together, and besought the merciful Lord with weeping and fasting, and lying flat upon the ground three days long, Judas, having exhorted them, commanded they should be in a readiness.

bes@2Macc:13:13 @ And Judas, being apart with the elders, determined, before the king’s host should enter into Judea, and get the city, to go forth and try the matter in fight by the help of the Lord.

bes@2Macc:13:14 @ So when he had committed all to the Creator of the world, and exhorted his soldiers to fight manfully, even unto death, for the laws, the temple, the city, the country, and the commonwealth, he camped by Modin:

bes@2Macc:13:15 @ And having given the watchword to them that were about him, Victory is of God; with the most valiant and choice young men he went in into the king’s tent by night, and slew in the camp about four thousand men, and the chiefest of the elephants, with all that were upon him.

bes@2Macc:13:16 @ And at last they filled the camp with fear and tumult, and departed with good success.

bes@2Macc:13:20 @ For Judas had conveyed unto them that were in it such things as were necessary.

bes@2Macc:13:22 @ The king treated with them in Bethsura the second time, gave his hand, took their’s, departed, fought with Judas, was overcome;

bes@2Macc:13:23 @ Heard that Philip, who was left over the affairs in Antioch, was desperately bent, confounded, intreated the Jews, submitted himself, and sware to all equal conditions, agreed with them, and offered sacrifice, honoured the temple, and dealt kindly with the place,

bes@2Macc:13:26 @ Lysias went up to the judgement seat, said as much as could be in defence of the cause, persuaded, pacified, made them well affected, returned to Antioch. Thus it went touching the king’s coming and departing.

bes@2Macc:14:1 @ After three years was Judas informed, that Demetrius the son of Seleucus, having entered by the haven of Tripolis with a great power and navy,

bes@2Macc:14:3 @ Now one Alcimus, who had been high priest, and had defiled himself wilfully in the times of their mingling with the Gentiles, seeing that by no means he could save himself, nor have any more access to the holy altar,

bes@2Macc:14:5 @ Howbeit having gotten opportunity to further his foolish enterprise, and being called into counsel by Demetrius, and asked how the Jews stood affected, and what they intended, he answered thereunto:

bes@2Macc:14:6 @ Those of the Jews that he called Assideans, whose captain is Judas Maccabeus, nourish war and are seditious, and will not let the rest be in peace.

bes@2Macc:14:7 @ Therefore I, being deprived of mine ancestors’ honour, I mean the high priesthood, am now come hither:

bes@2Macc:14:10 @ For as long as Judas liveth, it is not possible that the state should be quiet.

bes@2Macc:14:12 @ And forthwith calling Nicanor, who had been master of the elephants, and making him governor over Judea, he sent him forth,

bes@2Macc:14:13 @ Commanding him to slay Judas, and to scatter them that were with him, and to make Alcimus high priest of the great temple.

bes@2Macc:14:14 @ Then the heathen, that had fled out of Judea from Judas, came to Nicanor by flocks, thinking the harm and calamities of the Jews to be their welfare.

bes@2Macc:14:15 @ Now when the Jews heard of Nicanor’s coming, and that the heathen were up against them, they cast earth upon their heads, and made supplication to him that had established his people for ever, and who always helpeth his portion with manifestation of his presence.

bes@2Macc:14:17 @ Now Simon, Judas’ brother, had joined battle with Nicanor, but was somewhat discomfited through the sudden silence of his enemies.

bes@2Macc:14:18 @ Nevertheless Nicanor, hearing of the manliness of them that were with Judas, and the courageousness that they had to fight for their country, durst not try the matter by the sword.

bes@2Macc:14:20 @ So when they had taken long advisement thereupon, and the captain had made the multitude acquainted therewith, and it appeared that they were all of one mind, they consented to the covenants,

bes@2Macc:14:21 @ And appointed a day to meet in together by themselves: and when the day came, and stools were set for either of them,

bes@2Macc:14:26 @ But Alcimus, perceiving the love that was betwixt them, and considering the covenants that were made, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor was not well affected toward the state; for that he had ordained Judas, a traitor to his realm, to be the king’s successor.

bes@2Macc:14:27 @ Then the king being in a rage, and provoked with the accusations of the most wicked man, wrote to Nicanor, signifying that he was much displeased with the covenants, and commanding him that he should send Maccabeus prisoner in all haste unto Antioch.

bes@2Macc:14:28 @ When this came to Nicanor’s hearing, he was much confounded in himself, and took it grievously that he should make void the articles which were agreed upon, the man being in no fault.

bes@2Macc:14:30 @ Notwithstanding, when Maccabeus saw that Nicanor began to be churlish unto him, and that he entreated him more roughly than he was wont, perceiving that such sour behaviour came not of good, he gathered together not a few of his men, and withdrew himself from Nicanor.

bes@2Macc:14:33 @ He stretched out his right hand toward the temple, and made an oath in this manner: If ye will not deliver me Judas as a prisoner, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and I will break down the altar, and erect a notable temple unto Bacchus.

bes@2Macc:14:35 @ Thou, O Lord of all things, who hast need of nothing, wast pleased that the temple of thine habitation should be among us:

bes@2Macc:14:38 @ For in the former times, when they mingled not themselves with the Gentiles, he had been accused of Judaism, and did boldly jeopard his body and life with all vehemency for the religion of the Jews.

bes@2Macc:14:41 @ Now when the multitude would have taken the tower, and violently broken into the outer door, and bade that fire should be brought to burn it, he being ready to be taken on every side fell upon his sword;

bes@2Macc:14:43 @ But missing his stroke through haste, the multitude also rushing within the doors, he ran boldly up to the wall, and cast himself down manfully among the thickest of them.

bes@2Macc:14:45 @ Nevertheless, while there was yet breath within him, being inflamed with anger, he rose up; and though his blood gushed out like spouts of water, and his wounds were grievous, yet he ran through the midst of the throng; and standing upon a steep rock,

bes@2Macc:14:46 @ When as his blood was now quite gone, he plucked out his bowels, and taking them in both his hands, he cast them upon the throng, and calling upon the Lord of life and spirit to restore him those again, he thus died.

bes@2Macc:15:1 @ But Nicanor, hearing that Judas and his company were in the strong places about Samaria, resolved without any danger to set upon them on the sabbath day.

bes@2Macc:15:2 @ Nevertheless the Jews that were compelled to go with him said, O destroy not so cruelly and barbarously, but give honour to that day, which he, that seeth all things, hath honoured with holiness above all other days.

bes@2Macc:15:6 @ So Nicanor in exceeding pride and haughtiness determined to set up a publick monument of his victory over Judas and them that were with him.

bes@2Macc:15:9 @ And so comforting them out of the law and the prophets, and withal putting them in mind of the battles that they won afore, he made them more cheerful.

bes@2Macc:15:10 @ And when he had stirred up their minds, he gave them their charge, shewing them therewithal the falsehood of the heathen, and the breach of oaths.

bes@2Macc:15:11 @ Thus he armed every one of them, not so much with defence of shields and spears, as with comfortable and good words: and beside that, he told them a dream worthy to be believed, as if it had been so indeed, which did not a little rejoice them.

bes@2Macc:15:12 @ And this was his vision: That Onias, who had been high priest, a virtuous and a good man, reverend in conversation, gentle in condition, well spoken also, and exercised from a child in all points of virtue, holding up his hands prayed for the whole body of the Jews.

bes@2Macc:15:13 @ This done, in like manner there appeared a man with gray hairs, and exceeding glorious, who was of a wonderful and excellent majesty.

bes@2Macc:15:14 @ Then Onias answered, saying, This is a lover of the brethren, who prayeth much for the people, and for the holy city, to wit, Jeremias the prophet of God.

bes@2Macc:15:15 @ Whereupon Jeremias holding forth his right hand gave to Judas a sword of gold, and in giving it spake thus,

bes@2Macc:15:16 @ Take this holy sword, a gift from God, with the which thou shalt wound the adversaries.

bes@2Macc:15:17 @ Thus being well comforted by the words of Judas, which were very good, and able to stir them up to valour, and to encourage the hearts of the young men, they determined not to pitch camp, but courageously to set upon them, and manfully to try the matter by conflict, because the city and the sanctuary and the temple were in danger.

bes@2Macc:15:18 @ For the care that they took for their wives, and their children, their brethren, and folks, was in least account with them: but the greatest and principal fear was for the holy temple.

bes@2Macc:15:19 @ Also they that were in the city took not the least care, being troubled for the conflict abroad.

bes@2Macc:15:21 @ Maccabeus seeing the coming of the multitude, and the divers preparations of armour, and the fierceness of the beasts, stretched out his hands toward heaven, and called upon the Lord that worketh wonders, knowing that victory cometh not by arms, but even as it seemeth good to him, he giveth it to such as are worthy:

bes@2Macc:15:24 @ And through the might of thine arm let those be stricken with terror, that come against thy holy people to blaspheme. And he ended thus.

bes@2Macc:15:25 @ Then Nicanor and they that were with him came forward with trumpets and songs.

bes@2Macc:15:26 @ But Judas and his company encountered the enemies with invocation and prayer.

bes@2Macc:15:27 @ So that fighting with their hands, and praying unto God with their hearts, they slew no less than thirty and five thousand men: for through the appearance of God they were greatly cheered.

bes@2Macc:15:28 @ Now when the battle was done, returning again with joy, they knew that Nicanor lay dead in his harness.

bes@2Macc:15:30 @ And Judas, who was ever the chief defender of the citizens both in body and mind, and who continued his love toward his countrymen all his life, commanded to strike off Nicanor’s head, and his hand with his shoulder, and bring them to Jerusalem.

bes@2Macc:15:32 @ And shewed them vile Nicanor’s head, and the hand of that blasphemer, which with proud brags he had stretched out against the holy temple of the Almighty.

bes@2Macc:15:33 @ And when he had cut out the tongue of that ungodly Nicanor, he commanded that they should give it by pieces unto the fowls, and hang up the reward of his madness before the temple.

bes@2Macc:15:36 @ And they ordained all with a common decree in no case to let that day pass without solemnity, but to celebrate the thirtieth day of the twelfth month, which in the Syrian tongue is called Adar, the day before Mardocheus’ day.

bes@2Macc:15:37 @ Thus went it with Nicanor: and from that time forth the Hebrews had the city in their power. And here will I make an end.

bes@2Macc:15:38 @ And if I have done well, and as is fitting the story, it is that which I desired: but if slenderly and meanly, it is that which I could attain unto.

bes@2Macc:15:39 @ For as it is hurtful to drink wine or water alone; and as wine mingled with water is pleasant, and delighteth the taste: even so speech finely framed delighteth the ears of them that read the story. And here shall be an end.

bes@AddDaniel:1:4 @ In all the things that thou hast brought upon us, and upon the holy city of our fathers, even Jerusalem, thou hast executed true judgement: for according to truth and judgement didst thou bring all these things upon us because of our sins.

bes@AddDaniel:1:5 @ For we have sinned and committed iniquity, departing from thee.

bes@AddDaniel:1:6 @ In all things have we trespassed, and not obeyed thy commandments, nor kept them, neither done as thou hast commanded us, that it might go well with us.

bes@AddDaniel:1:10 @ Yet deliver us not up wholly, for thy name’s sake, neither disannul thou thy covenant:

bes@AddDaniel:1:14 @ Neither is there at this time prince, or prophet, or leader, or burnt offering, or sacrifice, or oblation, or incense, or place to sacrifice before thee, and to find mercy.

bes@AddDaniel:1:15 @ Nevertheless in a contrite heart and an humble spirit let us be accepted.

bes@AddDaniel:1:17 @ And now we follow thee with all our heart, we fear thee, and seek thy face.

bes@AddDaniel:1:18 @ Put us not to shame: but deal with us after thy lovingkindness, and according to the multitude of thy mercies.

bes@PrMan:1:9 @ for I have sinned above the number of the sands of the sea. My transgressions, O Lord, are multiplied: my transgressions are multiplied, and I am not worthy to behold and see the height of heaven for the multitude of mine iniquities.

bes@3Macc:1:1 @ Now Philopater, on learning from those who came back that Antiochus had made himself master of the places which belonged to himself, sent orders to all his footmen and horsemen, took with him his sister Arsinoe, and marched out as far as the parts of Raphia, where Antiochus and his forces encamped.

bes@3Macc:1:2 @ And one Theodotus, intending to carry out his design, took with him the bravest of the armed men who had been before committed to his trust by Ptolemy, and got through at night to the tent of Ptolemy, to kill him on his own responsibility, and so to end the war.

bes@3Macc:1:3 @ But Dositheus, called the son of Drimulus, by birth a Jew, afterward a renegade from the laws and observances of his country, conveyed Ptolemy away, and made an obscure person lie down in his stead in the tent. It befell this man to receive the fate which was meant for the other.

bes@3Macc:1:4 @ A fierce battle then took place; and the men of Antiochus prevailing, Arsinoe continually went up and down the ranks, and with dishevelled hair, with tears and entreaties, begged the soldiers to fight manfully for themselves, their children, and wives; and promised that if they proved conquerors, she would give them two minae of gold apiece.

bes@3Macc:1:5 @ It thus fell out that their enemies were defeated in hand-to-hand encounter, and that many of them were taken prisoners.

bes@3Macc:1:6 @ Having vanquished this attempt, the king then decided to proceed to the neighbouring cities, and encourage them.

bes@3Macc:1:7 @ By doing this, and by making donations to their temples, he inspired his subjects with confidence.

bes@3Macc:1:8 @ The Jews sent some of their council and of their elders to him. The greetings, guest- gifts, and congratulations of the past, bestowed by them, filled him with the greater eagerness to visit their city.

bes@3Macc:1:9 @ Having arrived at Jerusalem, sacrificed, and offered thank-offerings to the Greatest God, and done whatever else was suitable to the sanctity of the place, and entered the inner court,

bes@3Macc:1:10 @ he was so struck with the magnificence of the place, and so wondered at the orderly arrangements of the temple, that he considered entering the sanctuary itself.

bes@3Macc:1:12 @ Then they read the law to him; but he persisted in obtruding himself, exclaiming, that he ought to be allowed: and saying Be it that they were deprived of this honour, I ought not to be.

bes@3Macc:1:15 @ Well; since I have done this, said he, be the cause what it may, shall I not enter with or without your consent?

bes@3Macc:1:16 @ And when the priests fell down in their sacred vestments imploring the Greatest God to come and help in time of need, and to avert the violence of the fierce aggressor, and when they filled the temple with lamentations and tears,

bes@3Macc:1:17 @ then those who had been left behind in the city were scared, and rushed forth, uncertain of the event.

bes@3Macc:1:18 @ Virgins, who had been shut up within their chambers, came out with their mothers, scattering dust and ashes on their heads, and filling the streets with outcries.

bes@3Macc:1:19 @ Women, but recently separated off, left their bridal chambers, left the reserve that befitted them, and ran about the city in a disorderly manner. 

bes@3Macc:1:20 @ New-born babes were deserted by the mothers or nurses who waited upon them; some here, some there, in houses, or in fields; these now, with an ardour which could not be checked, swarmed into the Most High temple.

bes@3Macc:1:22 @ Along with these there were some of the citizens who took courage, and would not submit to his obstinacy, and his intention of carrying out his purpose.

bes@3Macc:1:23 @ Calling out to arms, and to die bravely in defence of the law of their fathers, they created a great uproar in the place, and were with difficulty brought back by the aged and the elders to the station of prayer which they had occupied before.

bes@3Macc:1:24 @ During this time the multitude kept on praying.

bes@3Macc:1:26 @ He, in his hardened mood, insensible to all persuasion, was going onwards with the view of carrying out this design.

bes@3Macc:2:1 @ Now was it that the high priest Simon bowed his knees over against the holy place, and spread out his hands in reverent form, and uttered the following supplication:

bes@3Macc:2:3 @ It is thou, the Creator of all, the Lord of the universe, who art a righteous Governor, and judgest all who act with pride and insolence.

bes@3Macc:2:4 @ It was thou who didst destroy the former workers of unrighteousness, among whom were the giants, who trusted in their strength and hardihood, by covering them with a measureless flood.

bes@3Macc:2:5 @ It was thou who didst make the Sodomites, those workers of exceeding iniquity, men notorious for their vices, an example to after generations, when thou didst cover them with fire and brimstone.

bes@3Macc:2:7 @ And thou rolledst the depths of the sea over him, when he made pursuit with chariots, and with a multitude of followers, and gavest a safe passage to those who put their trust in thee, the Lord of the whole creation.

bes@3Macc:2:9 @ Thou, O King, when thou createdst the illimitable and measureless earth, didst choose out this city: thou didst make this place sacred to thy name, albeit thou needest nothing: thou didst glorify it with thine illustrious presence, after constructing it to the glory of thy great and honourable name.

bes@3Macc:2:11 @ Verily thou art faithful and true.

bes@3Macc:2:14 @ We being in this low condition, this bold and profane man seeks to dishonour this thine holy place, consecrated out of the earth to the name of thy Majesty.

bes@3Macc:2:16 @ But since it seemed good to thee to exhibit thy glory among thy people Israel, thou didst sanctify this place.

bes@3Macc:2:16 @ Punish us not by means of the uncleanness of their men, nor chastise us by means of their profanity; lest the lawless ones should boast in their rage, and exult in exuberant pride of speech, and say,

bes@3Macc:2:19 @ Blot out our iniquities, and do away with our errors, and shew forth thy compassion in this hour.

bes@3Macc:2:20 @ Let thy mercies quickly go before us. Grant us peace, that the cast down and broken hearted may praise thee with their mouth.

bes@3Macc:2:21 @ At that time God, who seeth all things, who is beyond all Holy among the holy, heard that prayer, so suitable; and scourged the man greatly uplifted with scorn and insolence.

bes@3Macc:2:22 @ Shaking him to and fro as a reed is shaken with the wind, he cast him upon the pavement, powerless, with limbs paralyzed; by a righteous judgement deprived of the faculty of speech.

bes@3Macc:2:23 @ His friends and bodyguards, beholding the swift recompense which had suddenly overtaken him, struck with exceeding terror, and fearing that he would die, speedily removed him.

bes@3Macc:2:24 @ When in course of time he had come to himself, this severe check caused no repentance within him, but he departed with bitter threatenings.

bes@3Macc:2:26 @ and not satisfied with countless acts of impiety, his audacity so increased that he raised evil reports there, and many of his friends, watching his purpose attentively, joined in furthering his will.

bes@3Macc:2:27 @ His purpose was to indict a public stigma upon our race; wherefore he erected a pillar at the tower-porch, and caused the following inscription to be engraved upon it:

bes@3Macc:2:29 @ that those who were thus registered, were to be marked on their persons by the ivy-leaf symbol of Dionysus, and to be set apart with these limited rights.

bes@3Macc:2:30 @ To do away with the appearance of hating them all, he had it written underneath, that if any of them should elect to enter the community of those initiated in the rites, these should have equal rights with the Alexandrians.

bes@3Macc:2:31 @ Some of those who were over the city, therefore, abhorring any approach to the city of piety, unhesitatingly gave in to the king, and expected to derive some great honour from a future connection with him.

bes@3Macc:2:32 @ A nobler spirit, however, prompted the majority to cling to their religious observances, and by paying money that they might live unmolested, these sought to escape the registration:

bes@3Macc:3:3 @ Now, while the Jews always maintained a feeling of un-swerving loyalty towards the kings, yet, as they worshipped God, and observed his law, they made certain distinctions, and avoided certain things. Hence some persons held them in odium; although, as they adorned their conversation with works of righteousness, they had established themselves in the good opinion of the world.

bes@3Macc:3:7 @ who said much of the exclusiveness of the Jews with regard to their worship and meats; they alleged that they were men unsociable, hostile to the king's interests, refusing to associate with him or his troops. By this way of speaking, they brought much odium upon them.

bes@3Macc:3:8 @ Nor was this unexpected uproar and sudden conflux of people unobserved by the Greeks who lived in the city, concerning men who had never harmed them: yet to aid them was not in their power, since all was oppression around; but they encouraged them in their troubles, and expected a favourable turn of affairs:

bes@3Macc:3:11 @ Now the king, elated with his prosperous fortune, and not regarding the superior power of God, but thinking to persevere in his present purpose, wrote the following letter to the prejudice of the Jews.

bes@3Macc:3:15 @ we resolved, not with strength of spear, but with gentleness and much humanity, as it were to nurse the inhabitants of Coele-Syria and Phoenicia, and to be their willing benefactors.

bes@3Macc:3:16 @ So, having bestowed considerable sums of money upon the temples of the several cities, we proceeded even as far as Jerusalem; and went up to honour  the temple of these wretched beings who never cease from their folly.

bes@3Macc:3:17 @ To outward appearance they received us willingly; but belied that appearance by their deeds. When we were eager to enter their temple, and to honour it with the most beautiful and exquisite gifts,

bes@3Macc:3:19 @ And thus, exhibiting their enmity against us, they alone among the nations lift up their heads against kings and benefactors, as men unwilling to submit to any thing reasonable.

bes@3Macc:3:20 @ We then, having endeavoured to make allowance for the madness of these persons, and on our victorious return treating all people in Egypt courteously, acted in a manner which was befitting.

bes@3Macc:3:21 @ Accordingly, bearing no ill-will against their kinsmen but rather remembering our connection with them, and the numerous matters with sincere heart from a remote period entrusted to them, we wished to venture a total alteration of their state, by bestowing upon them the rights of citizens of Alexandria, and to admit them to the everlasting rites of our solemnities.

bes@3Macc:3:22 @ All this, however, they have taken in a very different spirit. With their innate malignity, they have spurned the fair offer; and constantly inclining to evil,

bes@3Macc:3:23 @ have rejected the inestimable rights. Not only so, but by using speech, and by refraining from speech, they abhor the few among them who are heartily disposed towards us; ever deeming that their ignoble course of procedure will force us to do away with our reform.

bes@3Macc:3:24 @ Having then, received certain proofs that these bear us every sort of ill-will, we must look forward to the possibility of some sudden tumult among ourselves, when these impious men may turn traitors and barbarous enemies.

bes@3Macc:3:25 @ As soon, therefore, as the contents of this letter become known to you, in that same hour we order those who dwell among you, with wives and children, to be sent to us, vilified and abused, in chains of iron, to undergo a death, cruel and ignominious, suitable to men disaffected.

bes@3Macc:3:27 @ Whosoever shall shield a Jew, whether it be old man, child, or suckling, shall with his whole house be tortured to death.

bes@3Macc:3:28 @ Whoever shall inform against the besides receiving the property of the person charged, shall be presented with two thousand drachmae from the royal treasury, shall be made free, and shall be crowned.

bes@3Macc:4:1 @ Wherever this decree was received, the people kept up a revelry of joy and shouting; as if their long-pent-up, hardened hatred, were now to shew itself openly.

bes@3Macc:4:3 @ What home, or city, or place at all inhabited, or what streets were there, which their condition did not fill with wailing and lamentation?

bes@3Macc:4:4 @ They were sent out unanimously by the generals in the several cities, with such stern and pitiless feeling, that the exceptional nature of the infliction moved even some of their enemies. These, influenced by sentiments of common humanity, and reflecting upon the uncertain issue of life, shed tears at this their miserable expulsion.

bes@3Macc:4:5 @ A multitude of aged hoary-haired old men, were driven along with halting bending feet, urged onward by the impulse of a violent, shameless force to quick speed.

bes@3Macc:4:6 @ Girls who had entered the bridal chamber quite lately, to enjoy the partnership of marriage, exchanged pleasure for misery; and with dust scattered upon their myrrh-anointed heads, were hurried along unveiled; and, in the midst of outlandish insults, set up with one accord a lamentable cry in lieu of the marriage hymn.

bes@3Macc:4:8 @ The husbands of these, in the prime of their youthful vigour, instead of crowns wore halters round their necks; instead of feasting and youthful jollity, spent the rest of their nuptial days in wailings, and saw only the grave at hand.

bes@3Macc:4:10 @ The planks of the deck above them barred out the light, and shut out the day on every side, so that they might be treated like traitors during the whole voyage.

bes@3Macc:4:11 @ They were conveyed accordingly in this vessel, and at the end of it arrived at Schedia. The king had ordered them to be cast into the vast hippodrome, which was built in front of the city. This place was well adapted by its situation to expose them to the gaze of all comers into the city, and of those who went from the city into the country. Thus they could hold no communication with his forces; nay, were deemed unworthy of any civilized accommodation.

bes@3Macc:4:12 @ When this was done, the king, hearing that their brethren in the city often went out and lamented the melancholy distress of these victims,

bes@3Macc:4:13 @ was full of rage, and commanded that they should be carefully subjected to the same (and not one whit milder) treatment.

bes@3Macc:4:14 @ The whole nation was now to be registered. Every individual was to be specified by name; not for that hard servitude of labour which we have a little before mentioned, but that he might expose them to the before-mentioned tortures; and finally, in the short space of a day, might extirpate them by his cruelties

bes@3Macc:4:15 @ The registering of these men was carried on cruelly, zealously, assiduously, from the rising of the sun to its going down, and was not brought to an end in forty days.

bes@3Macc:4:16 @ The king was filled with great and constant joy, and celebrated banquets before the temple idols. His erring heart, far from the truth, and his profane mouth, gave glory to idols, deaf and incapable of speaking or aiding, and uttered unworthy speech against the Greatest God.

bes@3Macc:4:17 @ At the end of the above-mentioned interval of time, the registrars brought word to the king that the multitude of the Jews was too great for registration,

bes@3Macc:4:18 @ inasmuch as there were many still left in the land, of whom some were in inhabited houses, and others were scattered about in various places; so that all the commanders in Egypt were insufficient for the work.

bes@3Macc:4:19 @ The king threatened them, and charged them with taking bribes, in order to contrive the escape of the Jews: but was clearly convinced of the truth of what had been said.

bes@3Macc:5:2 @ he commanded him, with a quantity of unmixed wine and handfuls of incense to drug the elephants early on the following day. These five hundred elephants were, when infuriated by the copious draughts of frankincense, to be led up to the execution of death upon the Jews.

bes@3Macc:5:5 @ The underlings appointed for the purpose went out about eventide and bound the hands of the miserable victims, and took other precautions for their security at night, thinking that the whole race would perish together.

bes@3Macc:5:6 @ The heathen believed the Jews to be destitute of all protection; for chains fettered them about.

bes@3Macc:5:7 @ they invoked the Almighty Lord, and ceaselessly besought with tears their merciful God and Father, Ruler of all, Lord of every power,

bes@3Macc:5:9 @ Their litany so earnest went up to heaven.

bes@3Macc:5:10 @ Then Hermon, who had filled his merciless elephants with copious draughts of mingled wine and frankincense, came early to the palace to certify the kind thereof.

bes@3Macc:5:12 @ By this sweet and profound influence of the Lord he was held fast, and thus his unjust purpose was quite frustrated, and his unflinching resolve greatly falsified.

bes@3Macc:5:15 @ He gained his attention with difficulty, and hinting that the mealtime was getting past, talked the matter over with him.

bes@3Macc:5:16 @ The kind listened to this, and then turning aside to his potations, commanded the guests to sit down before him.

bes@3Macc:5:18 @ Conversation grew on, and the king sent for Hermon, and enquired of him, with fierce denunciations, why the Jews had been allowed to outlive that day.

bes@3Macc:5:20 @ The king, then, with a barbarity exceeding that of Phalaris, said, That they might thank his sleep of that day. Lose no time, and get ready the elephants against tomorrow, as you did before, for the destruction of these accursed Jews.

bes@3Macc:5:24 @ The city crowds were collected together to see the hideous spectacle, and waited impatiently for the dawn.

bes@3Macc:5:25 @ The Jews, breathless with momentary suspense, stretched forth their hands, and prayed the Greatest God, in mournful strains, again to help them speedily.

bes@3Macc:5:26 @ The sun's rays were not yet shed abroad, and the king was waiting for his friends, when Hermon came to him, calling him out, and saying, That his desires could now be realized.

bes@3Macc:5:27 @ The king, receiving him, was astonished at his unwonted exit; and, overwhelmed with a spirit of oblivion about everything, enquired the object of this earnest preparation.

bes@3Macc:5:30 @ The king was filled with fierce anger at these words; for, by the Providence of God regarding these things, his mind had become entirely confused. He looked hard at Hermon, and threatened him as follows:

bes@3Macc:5:32 @ Had it not been for familar friendship, and the claims of your office, your life should have gone for theirs.

bes@3Macc:5:34 @ The friends, too, stole out one by one, and dismissed the assembled multitudes to their respective occupations.

bes@3Macc:5:36 @ Now the king arranged another banquet after the same manner, and proclaimed an invitation to mirth.

bes@3Macc:5:27 @ And he summoned Hermon to his presence, and said, with threats, How often, O wretch, must I repeat my orders to thee about these same persons?

bes@3Macc:5:39 @ His kinsmen, who were reclining with him, wondered at his instability, and thus expressed themselves:

bes@3Macc:5:41 @ For this cause the feeling of expectation causes tumult in the city: it swarms with factions; and is continually on the point of being plundered.

bes@3Macc:5:42 @ The king, just like another Phalaris, a prey to thoughtlessness, made no account of the changes which his own mind had undergone, issuing in the deliverance of the Jews. He swore a fruitless oath, and determined forthwith to send them to hades, crushed by the knees and feet of the elephants.

bes@3Macc:5:43 @ He would also invade Judea, and level its towns with fire and the sword; and destroy that temple which the heathen might not enter, and prevent sacrifices ever after being offered up there.

bes@3Macc:5:44 @ Joyfully his friends broke up, together with his kinsmen; and, trusting in his determination, arranged their forces in guard at the most convenient places of the city.

bes@3Macc:5:45 @ And the master of the elephants urged the beasts into an almost maniacal state, drenched them with incense and wine, and decked them with frightful instruments.

bes@3Macc:5:46 @ About early morning, when the city was now filled with an immense number of people at the hippodrome, he entered the palace, and called the king to the business in hand.

bes@3Macc:5:47 @ The king's heart teemed with impious rage; and he rushed forth with the mass, along with the elephants. With feelings unsoftened, and eyes pitiless, he longed to gaze at the hard and wretched doom of the abovementioned.

bes@3Macc:5:50 @ Nevertheless, when they reflected upon the succour before granted them from heaven, they prostrated themselves with one accord; removed even the sucking children from the breasts, and

bes@3Macc:6:1 @ And Eleazar, an illustrious priest of the country, who had attained to length of day, and whose life had been adorned with virtue, caused the presbyters who were about him to cease to cry out to the holy God, and prayed thus:

bes@3Macc:6:2 @ O king, mighty in power, most high, Almighty God, who regulates the whole creation with thy tender mercy,

bes@3Macc:6:3 @ look upon the seed of Abraham, upon the children of the sanctified Jacob, thy sanctified inheritance, O Father, now being wrongfully destroyed as strangers in a strange land.

bes@3Macc:6:4 @ Thou destroyedst Pharaoh, with his hosts of chariots, when that lord of this same Egypt was uplifted with lawless hardihood and loud-sounding tongue. Shedding the beams of thy mercy upon the race of Israel, thou didst overwhelm him with his proud army.

bes@3Macc:6:5 @ When Sennacherim, the grievous king of the Assyrians, glorying in his countless hosts, had subdued the whole land with his spear, and was lifting himself against thine holy city, with boastings grievous to be endured, thou, O Lord, didst demolish him and didst shew forth thy might to many nations.

bes@3Macc:6:7 @ It was thou who, when Daniel was hurled, through slander and envy, as a prey to lions down below, didst bring him back against unhurt to light.

bes@3Macc:6:10 @ If our life has during our exile been stained with iniquity, deliver us from the hand of the enemy, and destroy us, O Lord, by the death which thou preferrest.

bes@3Macc:6:11 @ Let not the vain-minded congratulate vain idols at the destruction of thy beloved, saying, Neither did their god deliver them.

bes@3Macc:6:12 @ Thou, who art All-powerful and Almighty, O Eternal One, behold! have mercy upon us who are being withdrawn from life, like traitors, by the unreasoning insolence of lawless men.

bes@3Macc:6:14 @ The whole band of infants and their parents with tears beseech thee.

bes@3Macc:6:15 @ Let it be shewn to all the nations that thou art with us, O Lord, and hast not turned thy face away from us; but as thou saidst that thou wouldst not forget them even in the land of their enemies, so do thou fulfil this saying, O Lord.

bes@3Macc:6:16 @ Now, at the time that Eleazar had ended his prayer, the king came along to the hippodrome, with the wild beasts, and with his tumultuous power.

bes@3Macc:6:19 @ And they stood opposite, and filled the enemies' host with confusion and cowardice; and bound them with immoveable fetters.

bes@3Macc:6:20 @ And a cold shudder came over the person of the king, and oblivion paralysed the vehemence of his spirit.

bes@3Macc:6:23 @ For when he heard the cry, and saw them all on the verge of destruction, with tears he angrily threatened his friends, saying,

bes@3Macc:6:25 @ Who has gathered here, unreasonably removing each from his home, those who, in fidelity to us, had held the fortresses of the country?

bes@3Macc:6:26 @ Who has thus consigned to unmerited punishments those who in good will towards us from the beginning have in all things surpassed all nations, and who often have engaged in the most dangerous undertakings?

bes@3Macc:6:28 @ Release the sons of the almighty living God of heaven, who from our ancestors' times until now has granted a glorious and uninterrupted prosperity to our affairs.

bes@3Macc:6:30 @ The king then departed to the city, and called his financier to him, and bade him provide a seven days' quantity of wine and other materials for feasting for the Jews. He decided that they should keep a gladsome festival of deliverance in the very place in which they expected to meet with their destruction.

bes@3Macc:6:31 @ Then they who were before despised and nigh unto hades, yea, rather advanced into it, partook of the cup of salvation, instead of a grievous and lamentable death. Full of exultation, they parted out the place intended for their fall and burial into banqueting booths.

bes@3Macc:6:33 @ So, also, the king collected a number of guests for the occasion, and returned unceasing thanks with much magnificence for the unexpected deliverance afforded him.

bes@3Macc:6:34 @ Those who had marked them out as for death and for carrion, and had registered them with joy, howled aloud, and were clothed with shame, and had the fire of their rage ingloriously put out.

bes@3Macc:6:35 @ But the Jews, as we just said, instituted a dance, and then gave themselves up to feasting, glad thanksgivings, and psalms.

bes@3Macc:6:41 @ The king commended them, and wrote the subjoined letter, of magnanimous import for them, to the commanders of every city.

bes@3Macc:7:3 @ Certain of our friends did of malice vehemently urge us to punish the Jews of our realm in a body, with the infliction of a monstrous punishment.

bes@3Macc:7:5 @ They brought them fettered in grievous chains as slaves, nay, as traitors. Without enquiry or examination they endeavoured to annihilate them. They buckled themselves with a savage cruelty, worse than Scythian custom.

bes@3Macc:7:6 @ For this cause we severely threatened them; yet, with the clemency which we are wont to extend to all men, we at length permitted them to live. Finding that the God of heaven cast a shield of protection over the Jews so as to preserve them, and that he fought for them as a father always fights for his sons;

bes@3Macc:7:7 @ and taking into consideration their constancy and fidelity towards us and towards our ancestors, we have, as we ought, acquitted them of every sort of charge.

bes@3Macc:7:9 @ For know ye, that should we conceive any evil design, or in any way aggrieve them, we shall ever have as our opposite, not man, but the highest God, the ruler of all might. From Him there will be no escape, as the avenger of such deeds. Fare ye well.

bes@3Macc:7:10 @ When they had received this letter, they were not forward to depart immediately. They petitioned the king to be allowed to inflict fitting punishment upon those of their race who had willingly transgressed the holy god, and the law of God.

bes@3Macc:7:11 @ They alleged that men who had for their bellies' sake transgressed the ordinances of God, would never be faithful to the interests of the king.

bes@3Macc:7:12 @ The king admitted the truth of this reasoning, and commended them. Full power was given them, without warrant or special commission, to destroy those who had transgressed the law of God boldly in every part of the king's dominions.

bes@3Macc:7:13 @ Their priests, then, as it was meet, saluted him with good wishes, and all the people echoed with the Hallelujah. They then joyfully departed.

bes@3Macc:7:14 @ Then they punished and destryed with ignominy every polluted Jew that fell in their way;

bes@3Macc:7:16 @ They themselves having held fast their God unto death, and having enjoyed a full deliverance, departed from the city garlanded with sweet-flowered wreaths of every kind. Uttering exclamations of joy, with songs of praise, and melodious hymns they thanked the God of their fathers, the eternal Saviour of Israel.

bes@3Macc:7:17 @ Having arrived at Ptolemais, called from the specialty of that district Rose-bearing, where the fleet, in accordance with the general wish, waited for them seven days,

bes@3Macc:7:20 @ These they registered as sacred upon a pillar, when they had dedicated the place of their festivity to be one of prayer. They departed unharmed, free, abundant in joy, preserved by the king's command, by land, by sea, and by river, each to his own home.

bes@3Macc:7:22 @ Every man received back his own, according to inventory; those who had obtained their goods, giving them up with the greatest terror. For the greatest God wrought with perfectness wonders for their salvation.

bes@4Macc:1:1 @ As I am going to demonstrate a most philosophical proposition, namely, that religious reasoning is absolute master of the passions, I would willingly advise you to give the utmost heed to philosophy.

bes@4Macc:1:2 @ For reason is necessary to every one as a step to science: and more especially does it embrace the praise of prudence, the highest virtue.

bes@4Macc:1:4 @ it surely also and manifestly has the rule over the affections which are contrary to justice, such as malice; and of those which are hindrances to manliness, as wrath, and pain, and fear.

bes@4Macc:1:5 @ How, then, is it, perhaps some may say, that reasoning, if it rule the affections, is not also master of forgetfulness and ignorance? They attempt a ridiculous argument.

bes@4Macc:1:6 @ For reasoning does not rule over its own affections, but over such as are contrary to justice, and manliness and temperance, and prudence; and yet over these, so as to withstand, without destroying them.

bes@4Macc:1:8 @ but I shall prove it with the greatest force from the fortitude of Eleazar, and seven brethren, and their mother, who suffered death in defence of virtue.

bes@4Macc:1:10 @ For their virtues, then, it is right that I should commend those men who died with their mother at this time in behalf of rectitude; and for their honours, I may count them happy.

bes@4Macc:1:12 @ But we may now at once enter upon the question, having commenced, as is our wont, with laying down the doctrine, and so proceed to the account of these persons, giving glory to the all wise God.

bes@4Macc:1:15 @ Reasoning is, then, intellect accompanied by a life of rectitude, putting foremost the consideration of wisdom.

bes@4Macc:1:17 @ And this is contained in the education of the law; by means of which we learn divine things reverently, and human things profitably.

bes@4Macc:1:18 @ And the forms of wisdom are prudence, and justice, and manliness, and temperance.19 The leading one of these is prudence; by whose means, indeed, it is that reasoning bears rule over the passions.

bes@4Macc:1:24 @ Wrath is an affection, common to pleasure and to pain, if any one will pay attention when it comes upon him.

bes@4Macc:1:25 @ And there exists in pleasure a malicious disposition, which is the most multiform of all the affections.

bes@4Macc:1:26 @ In the soul it is arrogance, and love of money, and vaingloriousness, and contention, and faithlessness, and the evil eye.

bes@4Macc:1:27 @ In the body it is greediness and gormandizing, and solitary gluttony.

bes@4Macc:1:30 @ For reasoning is the leader of the virtues, but it is the sole ruler of the passions. Observe then first, through the very things which stand in the way of temperance, that reasoning is absolute ruler of the passions.

bes@4Macc:1:33 @ For whence is it, otherwise, that when urged on to forbidden meats, we reject the gratification which would ensue from them? Is it not because reasoning is able to command the appetites? I believe so.

bes@4Macc:1:34 @ Hence it is, then, that when lusting after water-animals and birds, and fourfooted beasts, and all kinds of food which are forbidden us by the law, we withhold ourselves through the mastery of reasoning.

bes@4Macc:1:35 @ For the affections of our appetites are resisted by the temperate understanding, and bent back again, and all the impulses of the body are reined in by reasoning.

bes@4Macc:2:1 @ And what wonder? if the lusts of the soul, after participation with what is beautiful, are frustrated,

bes@4Macc:2:4 @ And it is not merely the stimulus of sensual indulgence, but that of every desire, that reasoning is able to master.

bes@4Macc:2:6 @ Now, then, since it is the law which has forbidden us to desire, I shall much the more easily persuade you, that reasoning is able to govern our lusts, just as it does the affections which are impediments to justice.

bes@4Macc:2:7 @ Since in what way is a solitary eater, and a glutton, and a drunkard reclaimed, unless it be clear that reasoning is lord of the passions?

bes@4Macc:2:8 @ A man, therefore, who regulates his course by the law, even if he be a lover of money, straightway puts force upon his own disposition; lending to the needy without interest, and cancelling the debt of the incoming sabbath.

bes@4Macc:2:9 @ And should a man be parsimonious, he is ruled by the law acting through reasoning; so that he does not glean his harvest crops, nor vintage: and in reference to other points we may perceive that it is reasoning that conquers his passions.

bes@4Macc:2:11 @ And it prevails over marriage love, condemning it when transgressing law.

bes@4Macc:2:12 @ And it lords it over the love of parents toward their children, for they punish them for vice; and it domineers over the intimacy of friends, reproving them when wicked.

bes@4Macc:2:13 @ And think it not a strange assertion that reasoning can in behalf of the law conquer even enmity.

bes@4Macc:2:14 @ It alloweth not to cut down the cultivated herbage of an enemy, but preserveth it from the destroyers, and collecteth their fallen ruins.

bes@4Macc:2:16 @ For the temperate understanding repels all these malignant passions, as it does wrath: for it masters even this.

bes@4Macc:2:19 @ For why, else, does our most wise father Jacob blame Simeon and Levi for having irrationally slain the whole race of the Shechemites, saying, Cursed be their anger.

bes@4Macc:2:21 @ For at the time when God created man, He implanted within him his passions and moral nature.

bes@4Macc:2:23 @ And He gave a law to this mind, by living according to which it will maintain a temperate, and just, and good, and manly reign.

bes@4Macc:2:24 @ How, then, a man may say, if reasoning be master of the passions, has it no control over forgetfulness and ignorance?

bes@4Macc:3:1 @ The argument is exceedingly ridiculous: for reasoning does not appear to bear sway over its own affections, but over those of the body,

bes@4Macc:3:2 @ in such a way as that any one of you may not be able to root out desire, but reasoning will enable you to avoid being enslaved to it.

bes@4Macc:3:3 @ One may not be able to root out anger from the soul, but it is possible to withstand anger.

bes@4Macc:3:4 @ Any one of you may not be able to eradicate malice, but reasoning has force to work with you to prevent you yielding to malice.

bes@4Macc:3:7 @ For after David had been attacking the Philistines the whole day, he with the soldiers of his nation slew many of them;

bes@4Macc:3:11 @ but a certain irrational longing for the water in the enemy's camp grew stronger and fiercer upon him, and consumed him with languish.

bes@4Macc:3:12 @ Wherefore his body-guards being troubled at this longing of the king, two valiant young soldiers, reverencing the desire of the king, put on their panoplies, and taking a pitcher, got over the ramparts of the enemies:

bes@4Macc:3:14 @ And having boldly discovered the fountain, they filled out of it the draught for the king.

bes@4Macc:3:15 @ But he, though parched with thirst, reasoned that a draught reputed of equal value to blood, would be terribly dangerous to his soul.

bes@4Macc:3:16 @ Wherefore, setting up reasoning in opposition to his desire, he poured out the draught to God.

bes@4Macc:3:17 @ For the temperate mind has power to conquer the pressure of the passions, and to quench the fires of excitement,

bes@4Macc:3:19 @ But the occasion now invites us to give an illustration of temperate reasoning from history.

bes@4Macc:3:21 @ then certain persons, bringing in new things contrary to the general unanimity, in various ways fell into calamities.

bes@4Macc:4:1 @ For a certain man named Simon, who was in opposition to Onias, who once held the high priesthood for life, and was an honourable and good man, after that by slandering him in every way, he could not injure him with the people, went away as an exile, with the intention of betraying his country.

bes@4Macc:4:2 @ Whence coming to Apollonius, the military governor of Syria, and Phoenicia, and Cilicia, he said,

bes@4Macc:4:3 @ Having good will to the king's affairs, I am come to inform thee that infinite private wealth is laid up in the treasuries of Jerusalem which do not belong to the temple, but pertain to king Seleucus.

bes@4Macc:4:4 @ Apollonius, acquainting himself with the particulars of this, praised Simon for his care of the king's interests, and going up to Seleucus informed him of the treasure;

bes@4Macc:4:5 @ and getting authority about it, and quickly advancing into our country with the accursed Simon and a very heavy force,

bes@4Macc:4:6 @ he said that he came with the commands of the king that he should take the private money of the treasure.

bes@4Macc:4:7 @ And the nation, indignant at this proclamation, and replying to the effect that it was extremely unfair that those who had committed deposits to the sacred treasury should be deprived of them, resisted as well as they could.

bes@4Macc:4:8 @ But Appolonius went away with threats into the temple.

bes@4Macc:4:9 @ And the priests, with the women and children, having supplicated God to throw his shield over the holy, despised place,

bes@4Macc:4:10 @ and Appolonius going up with his armed force to the seizure of the treasure,--there appeared from heaven angels riding on horseback, all radiant in armour, filling them with much fear and trembling.

bes@4Macc:4:11 @ And Apollonius fell half dead upon the court which is open to all nations, and extended his hands to heaven, and implored the Hebrews, with tears, to pray for him, and propitiate the heavenly host.

bes@4Macc:4:17 @ who had made a covenant, if he would give him this authority, to pay yearly three thousand six hundred and sixty talents.

bes@4Macc:4:18 @ And he committed to him the high priesthood and rulership over the nation.

bes@4Macc:4:20 @ So that he not only erected a gymnasium on the very citadel of our country, the guardianship of the temple.

bes@4Macc:4:22 @ For being at war with Ptolemy in Egypt, he heard that on a report of his death being spread abroad, the inhabitants of Jerusalem had exceedingly rejoiced, and he quickly marched against them.

bes@4Macc:4:24 @ And when he could by no means destroy by his decrees the obedience to the law of the nation, but saw all his threats and punishments without effect,

bes@4Macc:4:25 @ for even women, because they continued to circumcise their children, were flung down a precipice along with them, knowing beforehand of the punishment.

bes@4Macc:5:1 @ The tyrant Antiochus, therefore, sitting in public state with his assessors upon a certain lofty place, with his armed troops standing in a circle around him, commanded his spearbearers to seize every one of the Hebrews, and to compel them to taste swine's flesh, and things offered to idols.

bes@4Macc:5:6 @ I would counsel thee, old man, before thy tortures begin, to tasted the swine's flesh, and save your life; for I feel respect for your age and hoary head, which since you have had so long, you appear to me to be no philosopher in retaining the superstition of the Jews.

bes@4Macc:5:7 @ For wherefore, since nature has conferred upon you the most excellent flesh of this animal, do you loathe it?

bes@4Macc:5:8 @ It seems senseless not to enjoy what is pleasant, yet not disgraceful; and from notions of sinfulness, to reject the boons of nature.

bes@4Macc:5:9 @ And you will be acting, I think, still more senselessly, if you follow vain conceits about the truth.

bes@4Macc:5:12 @ and, reverencing my kindly admonition, have pity upon your own years?

bes@4Macc:5:13 @ For, bear in mind, that if there be any power which watches over this religion of yours, it will pardon you for all transgressions of the law which you commit through compulsion.

bes@4Macc:5:14 @ While the tyrant incited him in this manner to the unlawful eating of flesh, Eleazar begged permission to speak.

bes@4Macc:5:18 @ And indeed, were our law (as you suppose) not truly divine, and if we wrongly think it divine, we should have no right even in that case to destroy our sense of religion.

bes@4Macc:5:21 @ for in either case the law is equally slighted.

bes@4Macc:5:22 @ But thou deridest our philosophy, as though we lived irrationally in it.

bes@4Macc:5:23 @ Yet it instructs us in temperance, so that we are superior to all pleasures and lusts; and it exercises us in manliness, so that we cheerfully undergo every grievance.

bes@4Macc:5:24 @ And it instructs us in justice, so that in all our dealoings we render what is due; and it teaches us piety, so that we worship the one only God becomingly.

bes@4Macc:5:25 @ Wherefore it is that we eat not the unclean; for believing that the law was established by God, we are convinced that the Creator of the world, in giving his laws, sympathises with our nature.

bes@4Macc:5:38 @ For over the ungodly thou shalt tyrannize; but thou shalt not lord it over my thoughts about religion, either by thine arguments, or through deeds.

bes@4Macc:6:2 @ And first, they stripped the old man, adorned as he was with the comeliness of piety.

bes@4Macc:6:3 @ Then tying back his arms and hands, they disdainfully used him with stripes;

bes@4Macc:6:4 @ a herald opposite crying out, Obey the commands of the king.

bes@4Macc:6:5 @ But Eleazar, the high-minded and truly noble, as one tortured in a dream, regarded it not all.

bes@4Macc:6:9 @ But he endured the pains, and despised the cruelty, and persevered through the indignities;

bes@4Macc:6:12 @ Wherefore, partly in pity for his old age,

bes@4Macc:6:13 @ partly from the sympathy of acquaintance, and partly in admiration of his endurance, some of the attendants of the king said, Why do you unreasonably destroy yourself, O Eleazar, with these miseries?

bes@4Macc:6:18 @ for it were irrational, if having lived up to old age in all truth, and having scrupulously guarded our character for it, we should now turn back,

bes@4Macc:6:20 @ It would be disgraceful if we should live on some short time, and that scorned by all men for cowardice,

bes@4Macc:6:24 @ Beholding him so high-minded against misery, and not changing at their pity, they led him to the fire:

bes@4Macc:6:25 @ then with their wickedly-contrived instruments they burnt him on the fire, and poured stinking fluids down into his nostrils.

bes@4Macc:6:28 @ Be merciful to thy people, and be satisfied with the punishment of me on their account.

bes@4Macc:6:32 @ For had the passions been superior to reasoning, I would have given them the witness of this mastery.

bes@4Macc:6:33 @ But now, since reasoning conquered the passions, we befittingly awared it the authority of first place.

bes@4Macc:6:34 @ And it is but fair that we should allow, that the power belongs to reasoning, since it masters external miseries.

bes@4Macc:6:35 @ Ridiculous would it be were it not so; and I prove that reasoning has not only mastered pains, but that it is also superior to the pleasures, and withstands them.

bes@4Macc:7:2 @ and flouted by the threats of the tyrant, and overwhelmed with the breakers of torture,

bes@4Macc:7:3 @ in no way shifted the rudder of piety till it sailed into the harbour of victory over death.

bes@4Macc:7:4 @ Not so has ever a city, when besieged, held out against many and various machines, as did that holy man, when his pious soul was tried with the fiery trial of tortures and rackings, move his besiegers through the religious reasoning that shielded him.

bes@4Macc:7:5 @ For father Eleazar, projecting his disposition, broke the raging wabves of the passions as with a jutting promontory.

bes@4Macc:7:6 @ O priest worthy of the priesthood! thou didst not pollute thy sacred teeth; nor make thine appetite, which had always embraced the clean and lawful, a partaker of profanity.

bes@4Macc:7:7 @ O harmonizer with the law, and sage devoted to a divine life!

bes@4Macc:7:8 @ Of such a character ought those to be who perform the duties of the law at the risk of their own blood, and defend it with generous sweat by sufferings even unto death.

bes@4Macc:7:9 @ Thou, father, hast gloriously established our right government by thy endurance; and making of much account our service past, prevented its destruction, and, by thy deeds, hast made credible the words of philosophy.

bes@4Macc:7:11 @ For as father Aaron, armed with a censer, hastening through the consuming fire, vanquished the flame-bearing angel,

bes@4Macc:7:14 @ By the spirit of reasoning, and the reasoning of Isaac, he rendered powerless the many-headed instrument.

bes@4Macc:7:15 @ O blessed old age, and reverend hoar head, and life obedient to the law, which the faithful seal of death perfected.

bes@4Macc:7:17 @ But perhaps some might say, It is not all who conquer passions, as all do not possess wise reasoning.

bes@4Macc:7:18 @ But they who have meditated upon religion with their whole heart, these alone can master the passions of the flesh;

bes@4Macc:7:22 @ and knowing that it is a blessed thing to endure all kinds of hardships for virture, would not, for the sake of religion, master his passion?

bes@4Macc:7:24 @ Whence it is, that even boys, imbued with the philosophy of religious reasoning, have conquered still more bitter tortures:

bes@4Macc:8:1 @ Then, indeed, vehemently swayed with passion, he commanded to bring others of the adult Hebrews, and if they would eat of the unclean thing, to let them go when they had eaten; but if they objected, to torment them more grievously.

bes@4Macc:8:2 @ The tyrant having given this charge, seven brethren were brought into his presence, along with their aged mother, handsome, and modest, and well-born, and altogether comely.

bes@4Macc:8:3 @ Whom, when the tyrant beheld, encircling their mother as in a dance, he was pleased at them; and being struck with their becoming and ingenuous mien, smiled upon them, and calling them near, said:

bes@4Macc:8:4 @ O youths, with favourable feelings, I admire the beauty of each of you; and greatly honouring so numerous a band of brethren, I not only counsel you not to share the madness of the old man who has been tortured before,

bes@4Macc:8:6 @ Put confidence in me, then, and you shall receive places of authority in my government, if you forsake your national ordinance,

bes@4Macc:8:8 @ For if you provoke me by your disobedience, you will compel me to destroy you, every one, with terrible punishments by tortures.

bes@4Macc:8:15 @ Now let us consider the matter: had any of them been weak-spirited and cowardly among them, what reasonings would they have employed but these?

bes@4Macc:8:17 @ Why do we cheer ourselves with vain counsels, and venture upon a disobedience bringing death?

bes@4Macc:8:21 @ And Divine Justice will pardon us if we fear the king through necessity.

bes@4Macc:8:22 @ Why withdraw ourselves from a most sweet life, and deprive ourselves of this pleasant world?

bes@4Macc:8:23 @ Let us not oppose necessity, nor seek vain-glory by our own excruciation.

bes@4Macc:8:24 @ The law itself is not forward to put us to death, if we dread torture.

bes@4Macc:8:25 @ Whence has such angry zeal taken root in us, and such fatal obstinacy approved itself to us, when we might live unmolested by the king?

bes@4Macc:8:27 @ For they were well aware of the sufferings, and masters of the pains. So that as soon as the tyrant had ceased counselling them to eat the unclean, they altogether with one voice, as from the same heart said:

bes@4Macc:9:3 @ O tyrant, counsellor of law-breaking, do not, hating us as thou dost, pity us more than we pity ourselves.

bes@4Macc:9:5 @ And you think to scare us, by threatening us with death by tortures, as though thou hadst learned nothing by the death of Eleazar.

bes@4Macc:9:10 @ When they had thus spoken, the tyrant was not only exasperated against them as being refractory, but enraged with them as being ungrateful.

bes@4Macc:9:11 @ So that, at his bidding, the torturers brought forth the eldest of them, and tearing through his tunic, bound his hands and arms on each side with thongs.

bes@4Macc:9:12 @ And when they had laboured hard without effect in scourging him, they hurled him upon the wheel.

bes@4Macc:9:14 @ And with every member disjointed, he exclaimed in expostulation,

bes@4Macc:9:19 @ While he was saying this, they heaped up fuel, and setting fire to it, strained him upon the wheel still more.

bes@4Macc:9:20 @ And the wheel was defiled all over with blood, and the hot ashes were quenched by the droppings of gore, and pieces of flesh were scattered about the axles of the machine.

bes@4Macc:9:22 @ But, as though transformed by fire into immortality, he nobly endured the rackings, saying

bes@4Macc:9:23 @ Imitate me, O brethren, nor ever desert your station, nor abjure my brotherhood in courage: fight the holy and honourable fight of religion;

bes@4Macc:9:26 @ And when all admired his courageous soul, the spearmen brought forward him who was second in point of age, and having put on iron hands, bound him with pointed hooks to the catapelt.

bes@4Macc:9:28 @ after they with the iron hands had violently dragged all the flesh from the neck to the chin, the panther-like beasts tore off the very skin of his head: but he, bearing with firmness this misery, said,

bes@4Macc:9:31 @ For I lighten my suffering by the pleasures which are connected with virtue.

bes@4Macc:9:32 @ But thou art tortured with threatenings for impiety; and thou shalt not escape, most corrupt tyrant, the vengeance of Divine wrath.

bes@4Macc:10:4 @ Now then, whatever instrument of vengeance ye have, apply it to my body, for ye are not able to touch, even if ye wish it, my soul.

bes@4Macc:10:5 @ But they, highly incensed at his boldness of speech, dislocated his hands and feet with racking engines, and wrenching them from their sockets, dismembered him.

bes@4Macc:10:7 @ And not being able by any means to strangle him, they tore off his skin, together with the extreme tips of his fingers, flayed him, and then haled him to the wheel;

bes@4Macc:10:19 @ Behold, my tongue is extended, cut it off; for not for that halt thou extirpate our reasoning.

bes@4Macc:11:5 @ Does it seem evil to thee that we worship the Founder of all things, and live according to his surpassing law?

bes@4Macc:11:10 @ to which binding him at his knees, and fastening them with iron fetters, they bent down his loins upon the wedge of the wheel; and his body was then dismembered, scorpion-fashion.

bes@4Macc:11:11 @ With his breath thus confined, and his body strangled, he said,

bes@4Macc:11:13 @ He also being dead, the sixth, quite a youth, was brought out; and on the tyrant asking him whether he would eat and be delivered, he said,

bes@4Macc:11:18 @ Extended upon which, with limbs racked and dislocated, he was gradually roasted from beneath.

bes@4Macc:11:19 @ And having heated sharp spits, they approached them to his back; and having transfixed his sides, they burned away his entrails.

bes@4Macc:11:22 @ Armed with upright virtue, I also shall depart with my brethren.

bes@4Macc:11:23 @ I, too, bearing with me a great avenger, O deviser of tortures, and enemy of the truly pious.

bes@4Macc:11:25 @ For is not your inability to overrule our reasoning, and to compel us to eat the unclean, thy destruction?

bes@4Macc:12:2 @ whom the tyrant pitying, though he had been dreadfully reproached by his brethren,

bes@4Macc:12:3 @ seeing him already encompassed with chains, had him brought nearer, and endeavoured to counsel him, saying,

bes@4Macc:12:6 @ And having thus exhorted him, he sent for the mother of the boy; that, by condoling with her for the loss of so many sons, he might incline her, through the hope of safety, to render the survivor obedient.

bes@4Macc:12:11 @ Impious tyrant, and most blasphemous man, wert thou not ashamed, having received prosperity and a kingdom from God, to slay His servants, and to rack the doers of godliness?

bes@4Macc:12:15 @ But thou shalt groan according to thy deserts for having slain without cause the champions of virtue.

bes@4Macc:13:1 @ If then, the seven brethren despised troubles even unto death, it is confessed on all sides that righteous reasoning is absolute master over the passions.

bes@4Macc:13:3 @ now it is not so: but by means of the reasoning which is praised by God, they mastered their passions.

bes@4Macc:13:4 @ And it is impossible to overlook the leadership of reflection: for it gained the victory over both passions and troubles.

bes@4Macc:13:9 @ Brothers, may we die brotherly for the law. Let us imitate the three young men in Assyria who despised the equally afflicting furnace.

bes@4Macc:13:13 @ And one and all, looking on each other serene and confident, said, Let us sacrifice with all our heart our souls to God who gave them, and employ our bodies for the keeping of the law.

bes@4Macc:13:23 @ Brotherly love being thus sympathetically constituted, the seven brethren had a more sympathetic mutual harmony.

bes@4Macc:13:24 @ For being educated in the same law, and practising the same virtues, and reared up in a just course of life, they increased this harmony with each other.

bes@4Macc:13:26 @ For it acting along with religion, made their brotherly feeling more desirable to them.

bes@4Macc:14:5 @ But all of them, as though running the road to immortality, hastened on to death through tortures.

bes@4Macc:14:6 @ For just as hands and feet are moved sympathetically with the directions of the soul, so those holy youths agreed unto death for religion's sake, as through the immortal soul of religion.

bes@4Macc:14:9 @ We now shudder at the recital of the affliction of those young men; but they not only beheld, and not only heard the immediate execution of the threat, but undergoing it, persevered; and that through the pains of fire.

bes@4Macc:14:11 @ And think it not wonderful that reasoning bore rule over those men in their torments, when even a woman's mind despised more manifold pains.

bes@4Macc:14:14 @ where irrational animals possess a similar sympathy and love for their offspring with men.

bes@4Macc:14:19 @ The very bees, at the season of honey-making, attack all who approach; and pierce with their sting, as with a sword, those who draw near their hive, and repel them even unto death.

bes@4Macc:14:20 @ But sympathy with her children did not turn aside the mother of the young men, who had a spirit kindred with that of Abraham.

bes@4Macc:15:2 @ The mother, when two things were set before here, religion and the safety of her seven sons for a time, on the conditional promise of a tyrant,

bes@4Macc:15:4 @ O in what way can I describe ethically the affections of parents toward their children, the resemblance of soul and of form engrafted into the small type of a child in a wonderful manner, especially through the greater sympathy of mothers with the feelings of those born of them!

bes@4Macc:15:5 @ for by how much mothers are by nature weak in disposition and prolific in offspring, by so much the fonder they are of children.

bes@4Macc:15:7 @ and through her many pains undergone in connection with each one, was compelled to feel sympathy with them;

bes@4Macc:15:9 @ Not but that, on account of the excellent disposition to the law, her maternal affection toward them was increased.

bes@4Macc:15:11 @ And yet, though there were so many circumstances connected with love of children to draw on a mother to sympathy, in the case of none of them were the various tortures able to pervert her principle.

bes@4Macc:15:15 @ She beheld her children's flesh dissolving around the fire; and their extremities quivering on the ground, and the flesh of their heads dropped forwards down to their beards, like masks.

bes@4Macc:15:16 @ O thou mother, who wast tried at this time with bitterer pangs than those of parturition!

bes@4Macc:15:20 @ When thou didst see children's flesh heaped upon children's flesh that had been torn off, heads decapitated upon heads, dead falling upon the dead, and a choir of children turned through torture into a burying ground, thou lamentedst not.

bes@4Macc:15:22 @ With what and what manner of torments was the mother herself tortured, as her sons were undergoing the wheel and the fires!

bes@4Macc:15:24 @ Although beholding the destruction of seven children, the noble mother, after one embrace, stripped off through faith in God.

bes@4Macc:15:28 @ But this daughter of Abraham remembered his holy fortitude.

bes@4Macc:15:32 @ so thou, the guardian of the law, when surrounded on every side by the flood of passions, and straitened by violent storms which were the torments of they children, didst bear up nobly against the storms against religion.

bes@4Macc:16:3 @ And not so fierce were the lions round Daniel, nor the furnace of Misael burning with most vehement fires as that natural love of children burned within her, when she beheld her seven sons tortured.

bes@4Macc:16:4 @ But with the reasoning of religion the mother quenched passions so great and powerful.

bes@4Macc:16:7 @ O seven useless childbirths, and seven profitless periods of labour, and fruitless givings of suck, and miserable nursings at the breast.

bes@4Macc:16:9 @ Alas, of my children, some of you unmarried, and some who have married to no profit, I shall not see your children, nor be felicitated as a grandmother.

bes@4Macc:16:11 @ Nor, should I die, shall I have a son to bury me. But with such a lament is this the holy and God-fearing mother bewailed none of them.

bes@4Macc:16:13 @ But as one possessed with an adamantine mind, and as one bringing forth again her full number of sons to immortality, she rather with supplication exhorted them to death in behalf of religion.

bes@4Macc:16:15 @ For when thou wast seized along with thy children, thou stoodest looking upon Eleazar in torments, and saidst to thy sons in the Hebrew tongue,

bes@4Macc:16:16 @ O sons, noble is the contest; to which you being called as a witness for the nation, strive zealously for the laws of your country.

bes@4Macc:16:17 @ For it were disgraceful that this old man should endure pains for the sake of righteousness, and that you who are younger should be afraid of the tortures.

bes@4Macc:16:18 @ Remember that through God ye obtained existence, and have enjoyed it.

bes@4Macc:16:20 @ For whom also our father Abraham was forward to sacrifice Isaac our progenitor, and shuddered not at the sight of his own paternal hand descending down with the sword upon him.

bes@4Macc:16:22 @ You, then, having the same faith towards God, be not troubled.

bes@4Macc:16:23 @ For it is unreasonable that they who know religion should not stand up against troubles.

bes@4Macc:16:24 @ With these arguments, the mother of seven, exhorting each of her sons, over-persuaded them from transgressing the commandment of God.

bes@4Macc:17:2 @ O thou mother, who together with seven children didst destroy the violence of the tyrant, and render void his wicked intentions, and exhibit the nobleness of faith!

bes@4Macc:17:3 @ For thou, as an house bravely built upon the pillar of thy children, didst bear without swaying, the shock of tortures.

bes@4Macc:17:4 @ Be of good cheer, therefore, O holy-minded mother! holding the firm hope of your steadfastness with God.

bes@4Macc:17:5 @ Not so gracious does the moon appear with the stars in heaven, as thou art established honourable before God, and fixed in the firmament with thy sons who thou didst illuminate with religion to the stars.

bes@4Macc:17:7 @ And, were it lawful for us to paint as on a tablet the religion of thy story, the spectators would not shudder at beholding the mother of seven children enduring for the sake of religion various tortures even unto death.

bes@4Macc:17:8 @ And it had been a worth thing to have inscribed upon the tomb itself these words as a memorial to those of the nation,

bes@4Macc:17:9 @ Here an aged priest, and an aged woman, and seven sons, are buried through the violence of a tyrant, who wished to destroy the polity of the Hebrews.

bes@4Macc:17:11 @ For it was truly a divine contest which was carried through by them.

bes@4Macc:17:12 @ For at that time virtue presided over the contest, approving the victory through endurance, namely, immortality, eternal life.

bes@4Macc:17:14 @ The tyrant was the opposite; and the world and living men were the spectators.

bes@4Macc:17:19 @ For Moses saith, And all the saints are under thine hands.

bes@4Macc:17:20 @ These, therefore, having been sanctified through God, have been honoured not only with this honour, but that also by their means the enemy did not overcome our nation;

bes@1Esd:1:7 @ And unto the people that was found there Josias gave thirty thousand lambs and kids, and three thousand calves: these things were given of the king’s allowance, according as he promised, to the people, to the priests, and to the Levites.

bes@1Esd:1:9 @ And Jeconias, and Samaias, and Nathanael his brother, and Assabias, and Ochiel, and Joram, captains over thousands, gave to the Levites for the passover five thousand sheep, and seven hundred calves.

bes@1Esd:1:10 @ And when these things were done, the priests and Levites, having the unleavened bread, stood in very comely order according to the kindreds,

bes@1Esd:1:11 @ And according to the several dignities of the fathers, before the people, to offer to the Lord, as it is written in the book of Moses: and thus did they in the morning.

bes@1Esd:1:12 @ And they roasted the passover with fire, as appertaineth: as for the sacrifices, they sod them in brass pots and pans with a good savour,

bes@1Esd:1:14 @ For the priests offered the fat until night: and the Levites prepared for themselves, and the priests their brethren, the sons of Aaron.

bes@1Esd:1:15 @ The holy singers also, the sons of Asaph, were in their order, according to the appointment of David, to wit, Asaph, Zacharias, and Jeduthun, who was of the king’s retinue.

bes@1Esd:1:16 @ Moreover the porters were at every gate; it was not lawful for any to go from his ordinary service: for their brethren the Levites prepared for them.

bes@1Esd:1:21 @ Yea, all the kings of Israel held not such a passover as Josias, and the priests, and the Levites, and the Jews, held with all Israel that were found dwelling at Jerusalem.

bes@1Esd:1:23 @ And the works or Josias were upright before his Lord with an heart full of godliness.

bes@1Esd:1:24 @ As for the things that came to pass in his time, they were written in former times, concerning those that sinned, and did wickedly against the Lord above all people and kingdoms, and how they grieved him exceedingly, so that the words of the Lord rose up against Israel.

bes@1Esd:1:25 @ Now after all these acts of Josias it came to pass, that Pharaoh the king of Egypt came to raise war at Carchamis upon Euphrates: and Josias went out against him.

bes@1Esd:1:26 @ But the king of Egypt sent to him, saying, What have I to do with thee, O king of Judea?

bes@1Esd:1:27 @ I am not sent out from the Lord God against thee; for my war is upon Euphrates: and now the Lord is with me, yea, the Lord is with me hasting me forward: depart from me, and be not against the Lord.

bes@1Esd:1:32 @ And in all Jewry they mourned for Josias, yea, Jeremy the prophet lamented for Josias, and the chief men with the women made lamentation for him unto this day: and this was given out for an ordinance to be done continually in all the nation of Israel.

bes@1Esd:2:11 @ Now when Cyrus king of the Persians had brought them forth, he delivered them to Mithridates his treasurer:

bes@1Esd:2:15 @ These were brought back by Sanabassar, together with them of the captivity, from Babylon to Jerusalem.

bes@1Esd:2:16 @ But in the time of Artaxerxes king of the Persians Belemus, and Mithridates, and Tabellius, and Rathumus, and Beeltethmus, and Semellius the secretary, with others that were in commission with them, dwelling in Samaria and other places, wrote unto him against them that dwelt in Judea and Jerusalem these letters following;

bes@1Esd:2:17 @ To king Artaxerxes our lord, Thy servants, Rathumus the storywriter, and Semellius the scribe, and the rest of their council, and the judges that are in Celosyria and Phenice.

bes@1Esd:2:18 @ Be it now known to the lord king, that the Jews that are up from you to us, being come into Jerusalem, that rebellious and wicked city, do build the marketplaces, and repair the walls of it and do lay the foundation of the temple.

bes@1Esd:2:19 @ Now if this city and the walls thereof be made up again, they will not only refuse to give tribute, but also rebel against kings.

bes@1Esd:2:20 @ And forasmuch as the things pertaining to the temple are now in hand, we think it meet not to neglect such a matter,

bes@1Esd:2:22 @ And thou shalt find in the chronicles what is written concerning these things, and shalt understand that that city was rebellious, troubling both kings and cities:

bes@1Esd:2:23 @ And that the Jews were rebellious, and raised always wars therein; for the which cause even this city was made desolate.

bes@1Esd:2:24 @ Wherefore now we do declare unto thee, O lord the king, that if this city be built again, and the walls thereof set up anew, thou shalt from henceforth have no passage into Celosyria and Phenice.

bes@1Esd:2:25 @ Then the king wrote back again to Rathumus the storywriter, to Beeltethmus, to Semellius the scribe, and to the rest that were in commission, and dwellers in Samaria and Syria and Phenice, after this manner;

bes@1Esd:2:26 @ I have read the epistle which ye have sent unto me: therefore I commanded to make diligent search, and it hath been found that that city was from the beginning practising against kings;

bes@1Esd:2:28 @ Now therefore I have commanded to hinder those men from building the city, and heed to be taken that there be no more done in it;

bes@1Esd:2:30 @ Then king Artaxerxes his letters being read, Rathumus, and Semellius the scribe, and the rest that were in commission with them, removing in haste toward Jerusalem with a troop of horsemen and a multitude of people in battle array, began to hinder the builders; and the building of the temple in Jerusalem ceased until the second year of the reign of Darius king of the Persians.

bes@1Esd:5:47 @ But when the seventh month was at hand, and when the children of Israel were every man in his own place, they came all together with one consent into the open place of the first gate which is toward the east.

bes@1Esd:5:49 @ To offer burnt sacrifices upon it, according as it is expressly commanded in the book of Moses the man of God.

bes@1Esd:5:50 @ And there were gathered unto them out of the other nations of the land, and they erected the altar upon his own place, because all the nations of the land were at enmity with them, and oppressed them; and they offered sacrifices according to the time, and burnt offerings to the Lord both morning and evening.

bes@1Esd:5:51 @ Also they held the feast of tabernacles, as it is commanded in the law, and offered sacrifices daily, as was meet:

bes@1Esd:5:54 @ And they gave unto the masons and carpenters money, meat, and drink, with cheerfulness.

bes@1Esd:5:55 @ Unto them of Zidon also and Tyre they gave carrs, that they should bring cedar trees from Libanus, which should be brought by floats to the haven of Joppa, according as it was commanded them by Cyrus king of the Persians.

bes@1Esd:5:56 @ And in the second year and second month after his coming to the temple of God at Jerusalem began Zorobabel the son of Salathiel, and Jesus the son of Josedec, and their brethren, and the priests, and the Levites, and all they that were come unto Jerusalem out of the captivity:

bes@1Esd:5:58 @ And they appointed the Levites from twenty years old over the works of the Lord. Then stood up Jesus, and his sons and brethren, and Cadmiel his brother, and the sons of Madiabun, with the sons of Joda the son of Eliadun, with their sons and brethren, all Levites, with one accord setters forward of the business, labouring to advance the works in the house of God. So the workmen built the temple of the Lord.

bes@1Esd:5:59 @ And the priests stood arrayed in their vestments with musical instruments and trumpets; and the Levites the sons of Asaph had cymbals,

bes@1Esd:5:61 @ And they sung with loud voices songs to the praise of the Lord, because his mercy and glory is for ever in all Israel.

bes@1Esd:5:62 @ And all the people sounded trumpets, and shouted with a loud voice, singing songs of thanksgiving unto the Lord for the rearing up of the house of the Lord.

bes@1Esd:5:63 @ Also of the priests and Levites, and of the chief of their families, the ancients who had seen the former house came to the building of this with weeping and great crying.

bes@1Esd:5:64 @ But many with trumpets and joy shouted with loud voice,

bes@1Esd:5:65 @ Insomuch that the trumpets might not be heard for the weeping of the people: yet the multitude sounded marvellously, so that it was heard afar off.

bes@1Esd:5:66 @ Wherefore when the enemies of the tribe of Judah and Benjamin heard it, they came to know what that noise of trumpets should mean.

bes@1Esd:5:67 @ And they perceived that they that were of the captivity did build the temple unto the Lord God of Israel.

bes@1Esd:5:68 @ So they went to Zorobabel and Jesus, and to the chief of the families, and said unto them, We will build together with you.

bes@1Esd:5:69 @ For we likewise, as ye, do obey your Lord, and do sacrifice unto him from the days of Azbazareth the king of the Assyrians, who brought us hither.

bes@1Esd:5:70 @ Then Zorobabel and Jesus and the chief of the families of Israel said unto them, It is not for us and you to build together an house unto the Lord our God.

bes@1Esd:5:72 @ But the heathen of the land lying heavy upon the inhabitants of Judea, and holding them strait, hindered their building;

bes@1Esd:6:2 @ Then stood up Zorobabel the son of Salatiel, and Jesus the son of Josedec, and began to build the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, the prophets of the Lord being with them, and helping them.

bes@1Esd:6:3 @ At the same time came unto them Sisinnes the governor of Syria and Phenice, with Sathrabuzanes and his companions, and said unto them,

bes@1Esd:6:5 @ Nevertheless the elders of the Jews obtained favour, because the Lord had visited the captivity;

bes@1Esd:6:7 @ The copy of the letters which Sisinnes, governor of Syria and Phenice, and Sathrabuzanes, with their companions, rulers in Syria and Phenice, wrote and sent unto Darius; To king Darius, greeting:

bes@1Esd:6:8 @ Let all things be known unto our lord the king, that being come into the country of Judea, and entered into the city of Jerusalem we found in the city of Jerusalem the ancients of the Jews that were of the captivity

bes@1Esd:6:10 @ And those works are done with great speed, and the work goeth on prosperously in their hands, and with all glory and diligence is it made.

bes@1Esd:6:12 @ Therefore to the intent that we might give knowledge unto thee by writing, we demanded of them who were the chief doers, and we required of them the names in writing of their principal men.

bes@1Esd:6:14 @ And as for this house, it was builded many years ago by a king of Israel great and strong, and was finished.

bes@1Esd:6:16 @ Who pulled down the house, and burned it, and carried away the people captives unto Babylon.

bes@1Esd:6:19 @ With commandment that he should carry away the same vessels, and put them in the temple at Jerusalem; and that the temple of the Lord should be built in his place.

bes@1Esd:6:20 @ Then the same Sanabassarus, being come hither, laid the foundations of the house of the Lord at Jerusalem; and from that time to this being still a building, it is not yet fully ended.

bes@1Esd:6:21 @ Now therefore, if it seem good unto the king, let search be made among the records of king Cyrus:

bes@1Esd:6:22 @ And if it be found that the building of the house of the Lord at Jerusalem hath been done with the consent of king Cyrus, and if our lord the king be so minded, let him signify unto us thereof.

bes@1Esd:6:24 @ In the first year of the reign of Cyrus king Cyrus commanded that the house of the Lord at Jerusalem should be built again, where they do sacrifice with continual fire:

bes@1Esd:6:25 @ Whose height shall be sixty cubits and the breadth sixty cubits, with three rows of hewn stones, and one row of new wood of that country; and the expenses thereof to be given out of the house of king Cyrus:

bes@1Esd:6:27 @ And also he commanded that Sisinnes the governor of Syria and Phenice, and Sathrabuzanes, and their companions, and those which were appointed rulers in Syria and Phenice, should be careful not to meddle with the place, but suffer Zorobabel, the servant of the Lord, and governor of Judea, and the elders of the Jews, to build the house of the Lord in that place.

bes@1Esd:6:28 @ I have commanded also to have it built up whole again; and that they look diligently to help those that be of the captivity of the Jews, till the house of the Lord be finished:

bes@1Esd:6:30 @ And also corn, salt, wine, and oil, and that continually every year without further question, according as the priests that be in Jerusalem shall signify to be daily spent:

bes@1Esd:6:32 @ And he commanded that whosoever should transgress, yea, or make light of any thing afore spoken or written, out of his own house should a tree be taken, and he thereon be hanged, and all his goods seized for the king.

bes@1Esd:6:34 @ I Darius the king have ordained that according unto these things it be done with diligence.

bes@1Esd:7:1 @ Then Sisinnes the governor of Celosyria and Phenice, and Sathrabuzanes, with their companions following the commandments of king Darius,

bes@1Esd:7:4 @ And they finished these things by the commandment of the Lord God of Israel, and with the consent of Cyrus, Darius, and Artaxerxes, kings of Persia.

bes@1Esd:7:6 @ And the children of Israel, the priests, and the Levites, and others that were of the captivity, that were added unto them, did according to the things written in the book of Moses.

bes@1Esd:7:9 @ The priests also and the Levites stood arrayed in their vestments, according to their kindreds, in the service of the Lord God of Israel, according to the book of Moses: and the porters at every gate.

bes@1Esd:7:10 @ And the children of Israel that were of the captivity held the passover the fourteenth day of the first month, after that the priests and the Levites were sanctified.

bes@1Esd:7:11 @ They that were of the captivity were not all sanctified together: but the Levites were all sanctified together.

bes@1Esd:7:12 @ And so they offered the passover for all them of the captivity, and for their brethren the priests, and for themselves.

bes@1Esd:7:13 @ And the children of Israel that came out of the captivity did eat, even all they that had separated themselves from the abominations of the people of the land, and sought the Lord.

bes@1Esd:8:2 @ The son of Sadduc, the son of Achitob, the son of Amarias, the son of Ezias, the son of Meremoth, the son of Zaraias, the son of Savias, the son of Boccas, the son of Abisum, the son of Phinees, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the chief priest.

bes@1Esd:8:5 @ There went up with him also certain of the children of Israel, of the priest of the Levites, of the holy singers, porters, and ministers of the temple, unto Jerusalem,

bes@1Esd:8:7 @ For Esdras had very great skill, so that he omitted nothing of the law and commandments of the Lord, but taught all Israel the ordinances and judgements.

bes@1Esd:8:8 @ Now the copy of the commission, which was written from Artaxerxes the king, and came to Esdras the priest and reader of the law of the Lord, is this that followeth;

bes@1Esd:8:10 @ Having determined to deal graciously, I have given order, that such of the nation of the Jews, and of the priests and Levites being within our realm, as are willing and desirous should go with thee unto Jerusalem.

bes@1Esd:8:11 @ As many therefore as have a mind thereunto, let them depart with thee, as it hath seemed good both to me and my seven friends the counsellors;

bes@1Esd:8:14 @ With that also which is given of the people for the temple of the Lord their God at Jerusalem: and that silver and gold may be collected for bullocks, rams, and lambs, and things thereunto appertaining;

bes@1Esd:8:16 @ And whatsoever thou and thy brethren will do with the silver and gold, that do, according to the will of thy God.

bes@1Esd:8:18 @ And whatsoever thing else thou shalt remember for the use of the temple of thy God, thou shalt give it out of the king’s treasury.

bes@1Esd:8:19 @ And I king Artaxerxes have also commanded the keepers of the treasures in Syria and Phenice, that whatsoever Esdras the priest and the reader of the law of the most high God shall send for, they should give it him with speed,

bes@1Esd:8:22 @ I command you also, that ye require no tax, nor any other imposition, of any of the priests, or Levites, or holy singers, or porters, or ministers of the temple, or of any that have doings in this temple, and that no man have authority to impose any thing upon them.

bes@1Esd:8:23 @ And thou, Esdras, according to the wisdom of God ordain judges and justices, that they may judge in all Syria and Phenice all those that know the law of thy God; and those that know it not thou shalt teach.

bes@1Esd:8:24 @ And whosoever shall transgress the law of thy God, and of the king, shall be punished diligently, whether it be by death, or other punishment, by penalty of money, or by imprisonment.

bes@1Esd:8:27 @ Therefore was I encouraged by the help of the Lord my God, and gathered together men of Israel to go up with me.

bes@1Esd:8:28 @ And these are the chief according to their families and several dignities, that went up with me from Babylon in the reign of king Artaxerxes:

bes@1Esd:8:29 @ Of the sons of Phinees, Gerson: of the sons of Ithamar, Gamael: of the sons of David, Lettus the son of Sechenias:

bes@1Esd:8:30 @ Of the sons of Pharez, Zacharias; and with him were counted an hundred and fifty men:

bes@1Esd:8:31 @ Of the sons of Pahath Moab, Eliaonias, the son of Zaraias, and with him two hundred men:

bes@1Esd:8:32 @ Of the sons of Zathoe, Sechenias the son of Jezelus, and with him three hundred men: of the sons of Adin, Obeth the son of Jonathan, and with him two hundred and fifty men:

bes@1Esd:8:33 @ Of the sons of Elam, Josias son of Gotholias, and with him seventy men:

bes@1Esd:8:34 @ Of the sons of Saphatias, Zaraias son of Michael, and with him threescore and ten men:

bes@1Esd:8:35 @ Of the sons of Joab, Abadias son of Jezelus, and with him two hundred and twelve men:

bes@1Esd:8:36 @ Of the sons of Banid, Assalimoth son of Josaphias, and with him an hundred and threescore men:

bes@1Esd:8:37 @ Of the sons of Babi, Zacharias son of Bebai, and with him twenty and eight men:

bes@1Esd:8:38 @ Of the sons of Astath, Johannes son of Acatan, and with him an hundred and ten men:

bes@1Esd:8:39 @ Of the sons of Adonikam the last, and these are the names of them, Eliphalet, Jewel, and Samaias, and with them seventy men:

bes@1Esd:8:40 @ Of the sons of Bago, Uthi the son of Istalcurus, and with him seventy men.

bes@1Esd:8:41 @ And these I gathered together to the river called Theras, where we pitched our tents three days: and then I surveyed them.

bes@1Esd:8:42 @ But when I had found there none of the priests and Levites,

bes@1Esd:8:49 @ And of the servants of the temple whom David had ordained, and the principal men for the service of the Levites to wit, the servants of the temple two hundred and twenty, the catalogue of whose names were shewed.

bes@1Esd:8:50 @ And there I vowed a fast unto the young men before our Lord, to desire of him a prosperous journey both for us and them that were with us, for our children, and for the cattle:

bes@1Esd:8:52 @ For we had said unto the king, that the power of the Lord our God should be with them that seek him, to support them in all ways.

bes@1Esd:8:54 @ Then I separated twelve of the chief of the priests, Esebrias, and Assanias, and ten men of their brethren with them:

bes@1Esd:8:56 @ And when I had weighed it, I delivered unto them six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels of an hundred talents, and an hundred talents of gold,

bes@1Esd:8:57 @ And twenty golden vessels, and twelve vessels of brass, even of fine brass, glittering like gold.

bes@1Esd:8:59 @ Watch ye, and keep them till ye deliver them to the chief of the priests and Levites, and to the principal men of the families of Israel, in Jerusalem, into the chambers of the house of our God.

bes@1Esd:8:60 @ So the priests and the Levites, who had received the silver and the gold and the vessels, brought them unto Jerusalem, into the temple of the Lord.

bes@1Esd:8:61 @ And from the river Theras we departed the twelfth day of the first month, and came to Jerusalem by the mighty hand of our Lord, which was with us: and from the beginning of our journey the Lord delivered us from every enemy, and so we came to Jerusalem.

bes@1Esd:8:63 @ And with him was Eleazar the son of Phinees, and with them were Josabad the son of Jesu and Moeth the son of Sabban, Levites: all was delivered them by number and weight.

bes@1Esd:8:64 @ And all the weight of them was written up the same hour.

bes@1Esd:8:65 @ Moreover they that were come out of the captivity offered sacrifice unto the Lord God of Israel, even twelve bullocks for all Israel, fourscore and sixteen rams,

bes@1Esd:8:69 @ The nation of Israel, the princes, the priests and Levites, have not put away from them the strange people of the land, nor the pollutions of the Gentiles to wit, of the Canaanites, Hittites, Pheresites, Jebusites, and the Moabites, Egyptians, and Edomites.

bes@1Esd:8:70 @ For both they and their sons have married with their daughters, and the holy seed is mixed with the strange people of the land; and from the beginning of this matter the rulers and the great men have been partakers of this iniquity.

bes@1Esd:8:72 @ So all they that were then moved at the word of the Lord God of Israel assembled unto me, whilst I mourned for the iniquity: but I sat still full of heaviness until the evening sacrifice.

bes@1Esd:8:73 @ Then rising up from the fast with my clothes and the holy garment rent, and bowing my knees, and stretching forth my hands unto the Lord,

bes@1Esd:8:77 @ And for our sins and our fathers’ we with our brethren and our kings and our priests were given up unto the kings of the earth, to the sword, and to captivity, and for a prey with shame, unto this day.

bes@1Esd:8:79 @ And to discover unto us a light in the house of the Lord our God, and to give us food in the time of our servitude.

bes@1Esd:8:83 @ That the land, which ye enter into to possess as an heritage, is a land polluted with the pollutions of the strangers of the land, and they have filled it with their uncleanness.

bes@1Esd:8:84 @ Therefore now shall ye not join your daughters unto their sons, neither shall ye take their daughters unto your sons.

bes@1Esd:8:85 @ Moreover ye shall never seek to have peace with them, that ye may be strong, and eat the good things of the land, and that ye may leave the inheritance of the land unto your children for evermore.

bes@1Esd:8:87 @ And didst give unto us such a root: but we have turned back again to transgress thy law, and to mingle ourselves with the uncleanness of the nations of the land.

bes@1Esd:8:88 @ Mightest not thou be angry with us to destroy us, till thou hadst left us neither root, seed, nor name?

bes@1Esd:8:90 @ Behold, now are we before thee in our iniquities, for we cannot stand any longer by reason of these things before thee.

bes@1Esd:8:91 @ And as Esdras in his prayer made his confession, weeping, and lying flat upon the ground before the temple, there gathered unto him from Jerusalem a very great multitude of men and women and children: for there was great weeping among the multitude.

bes@1Esd:8:93 @ Let us make an oath to the Lord, that we will put away all our wives, which we have taken of the heathen, with their children,

bes@1Esd:8:95 @ Arise and put in execution: for to thee doth this matter appertain, and we will be with thee: do valiantly.

bes@1Esd:8:96 @ So Esdras arose, and took an oath of the chief of the priests and Levites of all Israel to do after these things; and so they sware.

bes@1Esd:9:2 @ And remained there, and did eat no meat nor drink water, mourning for the great iniquities of the multitude.

bes@1Esd:9:3 @ And there was a proclamation in all Jewry and Jerusalem to all them that were of the captivity, that they should be gathered together at Jerusalem:

bes@1Esd:9:4 @ And that whosoever met not there within two or three days according as the elders that bare rule appointed, their cattle should be seized to the use of the temple, and himself cast out from them that were of the captivity.

bes@1Esd:9:6 @ And all the multitude sat trembling in the broad court of the temple because of the present foul weather.

bes@1Esd:9:10 @ Then cried the whole multitude, and said with a loud voice, Like as thou hast spoken, so will we do.

bes@1Esd:9:11 @ But forasmuch as the people are many, and it is foul weather, so that we cannot stand without, and this is not a work of a day or two, seeing our sin in these things is spread far:

bes@1Esd:9:12 @ Therefore let the rulers of the multitude stay, and let all them of our habitations that have strange wives come at the time appointed,

bes@1Esd:9:13 @ And with them the rulers and judges of every place, till we turn away the wrath of the Lord from us for this matter.

bes@1Esd:9:15 @ And they that were of the captivity did according to all these things.

bes@1Esd:9:23 @ And of the Levites; Jozabad, and Semis, and Colius, who was called Calitas, and Patheus, and Judas, and Jonas.

bes@1Esd:9:34 @ And of the sons of Maani; Jeremias, Momdis, Omaerus, Juel, Mabdai, and Pelias, and Anos, Carabasion, and Enasibus, and Mamnitanaimus, Eliasis, Bannus, Eliali, Samis, Selemias, Nathanias: and of the sons of Ozora; Sesis, Esril, Azaelus, Samatus, Zambis, Josephus.

bes@1Esd:9:35 @ And of the sons of Ethma; Mazitias, Zabadaias, Edes, Juel, Banaias.

bes@1Esd:9:36 @ All these had taken strange wives, and they put them away with their children.

bes@1Esd:9:37 @ And the priests and Levites, and they that were of Israel, dwelt in Jerusalem, and in the country, in the first day of the seventh month: so the children of Israel were in their habitations.

bes@1Esd:9:38 @ And the whole multitude came together with one accord into the broad place of the holy porch toward the east:

bes@1Esd:9:40 @ So Esdras the chief priest brought the law unto the whole multitude from man to woman, and to all the priests, to hear law in the first day of the seventh month.

bes@1Esd:9:41 @ And he read in the broad court before the holy porch from morning unto midday, before both men and women; and the multitude gave heed unto the law.

bes@1Esd:9:42 @ And Esdras the priest and reader of the law stood up upon a pulpit of wood, which was made for that purpose.

bes@1Esd:9:45 @ Then took Esdras the book of the law before the multitude: for he sat honourably in the first place in the sight of them all.

bes@1Esd:9:48 @ Also Jesus, Anus, Sarabias, Adinus, Jacubus, Sabateas, Auteas, Maianeas, and Calitas, Azarias, and Joazabdus, and Ananias, Biatas, the Levites, taught the law of the Lord, making them withal to understand it.

bes@1Esd:9:49 @ Then spake Attharates unto Esdras the chief priest. and reader, and to the Levites that taught the multitude, even to all, saying,

bes@1Esd:9:53 @ So the Levites published all things to the people, saying, This day is holy to the Lord; be not sorrowful.

bes@Sus:1:6 @ These kept much at Joacim’s house: and all that had any suits in law came unto them.

bes@Sus:1:10 @ And albeit they both were wounded with her love, yet durst not one shew another his grief.

bes@Sus:1:11 @ For they were ashamed to declare their lust, that they desired to have to do with her.

bes@Sus:1:13 @ And the one said to the other, Let us now go home: for it is dinner time.

bes@Sus:1:15 @ And it fell out, as they watched a fit time, she went in as before with two maids only, and she was desirous to wash herself in the garden: for it was hot.

bes@Sus:1:20 @ Behold, the garden doors are shut, that no man can see us, and we are in love with thee; therefore consent unto us, and lie with us.

bes@Sus:1:21 @ If thou wilt not, we will bear witness against thee, that a young man was with thee: and therefore thou didst send away thy maids from thee.

bes@Sus:1:22 @ Then Susanna sighed, and said, I am straitened on every side: for if I do this thing, it is death unto me: and if I do it not I cannot escape your hands.

bes@Sus:1:23 @ It is better for me to fall into your hands, and not do it, than to sin in the sight of the Lord.

bes@Sus:1:24 @ With that Susanna cried with a loud voice: and the two elders cried out against her.

bes@Sus:1:28 @ And it came to pass the next day, when the people were assembled to her husband Joacim, the two elders came also full of mischievous imagination against Susanna to put her to death;

bes@Sus:1:30 @ So she came with her father and mother, her children, and all her kindred.

bes@Sus:1:32 @ And these wicked men commanded to uncover her face, (for she was covered) that they might be filled with her beauty.

bes@Sus:1:36 @ And the elders said, As we walked in the garden alone, this woman came in with two maids, and shut the garden doors, and sent the maids away.

bes@Sus:1:37 @ Then a young man, who there was hid, came unto her, and lay with her.

bes@Sus:1:42 @ Then Susanna cried out with a loud voice, and said, O everlasting God, that knowest the secrets, and knowest all things before they be:

bes@Sus:1:43 @ Thou knowest that they have borne false witness against me, and, behold, I must die; whereas I never did such things as these men have maliciously invented against me.

bes@Sus:1:45 @ Therefore when she was led to be put to death, the Lord raised up the holy spirit of a young youth whose name was Daniel:

bes@Sus:1:46 @ Who cried with a loud voice, I am clear from the blood of this woman.

bes@Sus:1:48 @ So he standing in the midst of them said, Are ye such fools, ye sons of Israel, that without examination or knowledge of the truth ye have condemned a daughter of Israel?

bes@Sus:1:49 @ Return again to the place of judgement: for they have borne false witness against her.

bes@Sus:1:50 @ Wherefore all the people turned again in haste, and the elders said unto him, Come, sit down among us, and shew it us, seeing God hath given thee the honour of an elder.

bes@Sus:1:52 @ So when they were put asunder one from another, he called one of them, and said unto him, O thou that art waxen old in wickedness, now thy sins which thou hast committed aforetime are come to light.

bes@Sus:1:53 @ For thou hast pronounced false judgement and hast condemned the innocent and hast let the guilty go free; albeit the Lord saith, The innocent and righteous shalt thou not slay.

bes@Sus:1:57 @ Thus have ye dealt with the daughters of Israel, and they for fear companied with you: but the daughter of Juda would not abide your wickedness.

bes@Sus:1:59 @ Then said Daniel unto him, Well; thou hast also lied against thine own head: for the angel of God waiteth with the sword to cut thee in two, that he may destroy you.

bes@Sus:1:60 @ With that all the assembly cried out with a loud voice, and praised God, who saveth them that trust in him.

bes@Sus:1:61 @ And they arose against the two elders, for Daniel had convicted them of false witness by their own mouth:

bes@Sus:1:63 @ Therefore Chelcias and his wife praised God for their daughter Susanna, with Joacim her husband, and all the kindred, because there was no dishonesty found in her.

bes@Ps151:1:1 @ This Psalm is a genuine one of David, though supernumerary, composed when he fought in single combat with (note:)Alex. Goliath(:note) Goliad. - I was small among my brethren, and youngest in my father’s house: I tended my father’s sheep.

bes@Ps151:1:4 @ He sent forth his angel, and took me from my father’s sheep, and he anointed me with the oil of his anointing.

bes@BelTh:1:2 @ And Daniel conversed with the king, and was honoured above all his friends.

bes@BelTh:1:4 @ And the king worshipped it and went daily to adore it: but Daniel worshipped his own God. And the king said unto him, Why dost not thou worship Bel?

bes@BelTh:1:5 @ Who answered and said, Because I may not worship idols made with hands, but the living God, who hath created the heaven and the earth, and hath sovereignty over all flesh.

bes@BelTh:1:7 @ Then Daniel smiled, and said, O king, be not deceived: for this is but clay within, and brass without, and did never eat or drink any thing.

bes@BelTh:1:9 @ But if ye can certify me that Bel devoureth them, then Daniel shall die: for he hath spoken blasphemy against Bel. And Daniel said unto the king, Let it be according to thy word.

bes@BelTh:1:10 @ Now the priests of Bel were threescore and ten, beside their wives and children. And the king went with Daniel into the temple of Bel.

bes@BelTh:1:11 @ So Bel’s priests said, Lo, we go out: but thou, O king, set on the meat, and make ready the wine, and shut the door fast and seal it with thine own signet;

bes@BelTh:1:13 @ And they little regarded it: for under the table they had made a privy entrance, whereby they entered in continually, and consumed those things.

bes@BelTh:1:14 @ So when they were gone forth, the king set meats before Bel. Now Daniel had commanded his servants to bring ashes, and those they strewed throughout all the temple in the presence of the king alone: then went they out, and shut the door, and sealed it with the king’s signet, and so departed.

bes@BelTh:1:15 @ Now in the night came the priests with their wives and children, as they were wont to do, and did eat and drink up all.

bes@BelTh:1:16 @ In the morning betime the king arose, and Daniel with him.

bes@BelTh:1:18 @ And as soon as he had opened the dour, the king looked upon the table, and cried with a loud voice, Great art thou, O Bel, and with thee is no deceit at all.

bes@BelTh:1:21 @ And took the priests with their wives and children, who shewed him the privy doors, where they came in, and consumed such things as were upon the table.
