jps@2Chronicles:1:9 @ Now, O LORD God, let Thy promise unto David my father be established; for Thou hast made me king over a people like the dust of the earth in multitude.

jps@2Chronicles:1:11 @ And God said to Solomon: 'Because this was in thy heart, and thou hast not asked riches, wealth, or honour, nor the life of them that hate thee, neither yet hast asked long life, but hast asked wisdom and knowledge for thyself, that thou mayest judge My people, over whom I have made thee king;

jps@2Chronicles:1:15 @ And the king made silver and gold to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycamore-trees that are in the Lowland, for abundance.

jps@2Chronicles:2:1 @ Now Solomon purposed to build a house for the name of the LORD, and a house for his kingdom.

jps@2Chronicles:2:2 @ And Solomon counted out threescore and ten thousand men to bear burdens, and fourscore thousand men that were hewers in the mountains, and three thousand and six hundred to oversee them.

jps@2Chronicles:2:5 @ And the house which I build is great; for great is our God above all gods.

jps@2Chronicles:2:6 @ But who is able to build Him a house, seeing the heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain Him? who am I then, that I should build Him a house, save only to offer before Him?

jps@2Chronicles:2:7 @ Now therefore send me a man skilful to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass, and in iron, and in purple, and crimson, and blue, and that hath skill to grave all manner of gravings, to be with the skilful men that are with me in Judah and in Jerusalem, whom David my father did provide.

jps@2Chronicles:3:7 @ He overlaid also the house, the beams, the thresholds, and the walls thereof, and the doors thereof, with gold; and graved cherubim on the walls.

jps@2Chronicles:3:8 @ And he made the most holy place; the length thereof, according to the breadth of the house, was twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof twenty cubits; and he overlaid it with fine gold, amounting to six hundred talents.

jps@2Chronicles:3:11 @ And the wings of the cherubim were twenty cubits long: the wing of the one cherub was five cubits, reaching to the wall of the house; and the other wing was likewise five cubits, reaching to the wing of the other cherub.

jps@2Chronicles:4:10 @ And he set the sea on the right side of the house eastward, toward the south.

jps@2Chronicles:4:11 @ And Huram made the pots, and the shovels, and the basins. So Huram made an end of doing the work that he wrought for king Solomon in the house of God:

jps@Esther:9:18 @ But the Jews that were in Shushan assembled together on the thirteenth day thereof, and on the fourteenth thereof; and on the fifteenth day of the same they rested, and made it a day of feasting and gladness.

jps@Esther:9:20 @ And Mordecai wrote these things, and sent letters unto all the Jews that were in all the provinces of the king Ahasuerus, both nigh and far,

jps@Esther:9:24 @ because Haman the son of Hammedatha, the Agagite, the enemy of all the Jews, had devised against the Jews to destroy them, and had cast pur, that is, the lot, to discomfit them, and to destroy them;

jps@Esther:9:26 @ Wherefore they called these days Purim, after the name of pur. Therefore because of all the words of this letter, and of that which they had seen concerning this matter, and that which had come unto them,

jps@Esther:9:30 @ And he sent letters unto all the Jews, to the hundred twenty and seven provinces of the kingdom of Ahasuerus, with words of peace and truth,

jps@Esther:10:1 @ And the king Ahasuerus laid a tribute upon the land, and upon the isles of the sea.

jps@Esther:10:3 @ For Mordecai the Jew was next unto king Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted of the multitude of his brethren; seeking the good of his people and speaking peace to all his seed.

jps@Job:1:3 @ His possessions also were seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the children of the east.

jps@Job:1:4 @ And his sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each one upon his day; and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.

jps@Job:1:5 @ And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt-offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said: 'It may be that my sons have sinned, and blasphemed God in their hearts.' Thus did Job continually.

jps@Job:1:10 @ Hast not Thou made a hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath, on every side? Thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions are increased in the land.

jps@Job:1:13 @ And it fell on a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house,

jps@Job:1:18 @ While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said: 'Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house;

jps@Job:1:19 @ And, behold, there came a great wind from across the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young people, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.'

jps@Job:2:3 @ And the LORD said unto Satan: 'Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a whole-hearted and an upright man, one that feareth God, and shunneth evil? and he still holdeth fast his integrity, although thou didst move Me against him, to destroy him without cause.'

jps@Job:2:10 @ But he said unto her: 'Thou speakest as one of the impious women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?' For all this did not Job sin with his lips.

jps@Job:2:12 @ And when they lifted up their eyes afar off, and knew him not, they lifted up their voice, and wept; and they rent every one his mantle, and threw dust upon their heads toward heaven.

jps@Job:3:8 @ Let them curse it that curse the day, who are ready to rouse up leviathan.

jps@Job:3:10 @ Because it shut not up the doors of my mother's womb, nor hid trouble from mine eyes.

jps@Job:3:15 @ Or with princes that had gold, who filled their houses with silver;

jps@Job:4:17 @ 'Shall mortal man be just before God? Shall a man be pure before his Maker?

jps@Job:4:18 @ Behold, He putteth no trust in His servants, and His angels He chargeth with folly;

jps@Job:4:19 @ How much more them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, who are crushed before the moth!

jps@Job:5:4 @ His children are far from safety, and are crushed in the gate, with none to deliver them.

jps@Job:5:6 @ For affliction cometh not forth from the dust, neither doth trouble spring out of the ground;

jps@Job:5:8 @ But as for me, I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause;

jps@Job:5:9 @ Who doeth great things and unsearchable, marvellous things without number;

jps@Job:5:12 @ He frustrateth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands can perform nothing substantial.

jps@Job:6:7 @ My soul refuseth to touch them; they are as the sickness of my flesh.

jps@Job:6:24 @ Teach me, and I will hold my peace; and cause me to understand wherein I have erred.

jps@Job:6:29 @ Return, I pray you, let there be no injustice; yea, return again, my cause is righteous.

jps@Job:6:30 @ Is there injustice on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern crafty devices?

jps@Job:7:5 @ My flesh is clothed with worms and clods of dust; my skin closeth up and breaketh out afresh.

jps@Job:7:10 @ He shall return no more to his house, neither shall his place know him any more.

jps@Job:7:21 @ And why dost Thou not pardon my transgression, and take away mine iniquity? For now shall I lie down in the dust; and Thou wilt seek me, but I shall not be.

jps@Job:8:3 @ Doth God pervert judgment? Or doth the Almighty pervert justice?

jps@Job:8:6 @ If thou wert pure and upright; surely now He would awake for thee, and make the habitation of thy righteousness prosperous.

jps@Job:8:9 @ For we are but of yesterday, and know nothing, because our days upon earth are a shadow--

jps@Job:8:11 @ Can the rush shoot up without mire? Can the reed-grass grow without water?

jps@Job:8:14 @ Whose confidence is gossamer, and whose trust is a spider's web.

jps@Job:8:15 @ He shall lean upon his house, but it shall not stand; he shall hold fast thereby, but it shall not endure.

jps@Job:9:2 @ Of a truth I know that it is so; and how can man be just with God?

jps@Job:9:3 @ If one should desire to contend with Him, he could not answer Him one of a thousand.

jps@Job:9:10 @ Who doeth great things past finding out; yea, marvellous things without number.

jps@Job:9:15 @ Whom, though I were righteous, yet would I not answer; I would make supplication to Him that contendeth with me.

jps@Job:9:17 @ He that would break me with a tempest, and multiply my wounds without cause;

jps@Job:9:19 @ If it be a matter of strength, lo, He is mighty! and if of justice, who will appoint me a time?

jps@Job:9:20 @ Though I be righteous, mine own mouth shall condemn me; though I be innocent, He shall prove me perverse.

jps@Job:9:33 @ There is no arbiter betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both.

jps@Job:10:9 @ Remember, I beseech Thee, that Thou hast fashioned me as clay; and wilt Thou bring me into dust again?

jps@Job:10:15 @ If I be wicked, woe unto me; and if I be righteous, yet shall I not lift up my head--being filled with ignominy and looking upon mine affliction.

jps@Job:10:16 @ And if it exalt itself, Thou huntest me as a lion; and again Thou showest Thyself marvellous upon me.

jps@Job:11:14 @ If iniquity be in thy hand, put it far away, and let not unrighteousness dwell in thy tents--

jps@Job:11:18 @ And thou shalt be secure, because there is hope; yea, thou shalt look about thee, and shalt take thy rest in safety.

jps@Job:12:4 @ I am as one that is a laughing-stock to his neighbour, a man that called upon God, and He answered him; the just, the innocent man is a laughing-stock,

jps@Job:12:20 @ He removeth the speech of men of trust, and taketh away the sense of the elders.

jps@Job:12:24 @ He taketh away the heart of the chiefs of the people of the land, and causeth them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way.

jps@Job:13:7 @ Will ye speak unrighteously for God, and talk deceitfully for Him?

jps@Job:13:15 @ Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him; but I will argue my ways before Him.

jps@Job:13:18 @ Behold now, I have ordered my cause; I know that I shall be justified.

jps@Job:14:12 @ So man lieth down and riseth not; till the heavens be no more, they shall not awake, nor be roused out of their sleep.

jps@Job:14:19 @ The waters wear the stones; the overflowings thereof wash away the dust of the earth; so Thou destroyest the hope of man.

jps@Job:15:9 @ What knowest thou, that we know not? What understandest thou, which is not in us?

jps@Job:15:10 @ With us are both the gray-headed and the very aged men, much older than thy father.

jps@Job:15:14 @ What is man, that he should be clean? And he that is born of a woman, that he should be righteous?

jps@Job:15:15 @ Behold, He putteth no trust in His holy ones; yea, the heavens are not clean in His sight.

jps@Job:15:25 @ Because he hath stretched out his hand against God, and behaveth himself proudly against the Almighty;

jps@Job:15:27 @ Because he hath covered his face with his fatness, and made collops of fat on his loins;

jps@Job:15:28 @ And he hath dwelt in desolate cities, in houses which no man would inhabit, which were ready to become heaps.

jps@Job:15:31 @ Let him not trust in vanity, deceiving himself; for vanity shall be his recompense.

jps@Job:16:15 @ I have sewed sackcloth upon my skin, and have laid my horn in the dust.

jps@Job:17:9 @ Yet the righteous holdeth on his way, and he that hath clean hands waxeth stronger and stronger.

jps@Job:17:12 @ They change the night into day; the light is short because of darkness.

jps@Job:17:13 @ If I look for the nether-world as my house; if I have spread my couch in the darkness;

jps@Job:17:16 @ They shall go down to the bars of the nether-world, when we are at rest together in the dust.

jps@Job:18:12 @ His trouble shall be ravenous, and calamity shall be ready for his fall.

jps@Job:18:14 @ That wherein he trusteth shall be plucked out of his tent; and he shall be brought to the king of terrors.

jps@Job:19:2 @ How long will ye vex my soul, and crush me with words?

jps@Job:19:6 @ Know now that God hath subverted my cause, and hath compassed me with His net.

jps@Job:19:7 @ Behold, I cry out: 'Violence!' but I am not heard; I cry aloud, but there is no justice.

jps@Job:19:15 @ They that dwell in my house, and my maids, count me for a stranger; I am become an alien in their sight.

jps@Job:19:25 @ But as for me, I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He will witness at the last upon the dust;

jps@Job:20:11 @ His bones are full of his youth, but it shall lie down with him in the dust.

jps@Job:20:19 @ For he hath oppressed and forsaken the poor; he hath violently taken away a house, and he shall not build it up.

jps@Job:20:20 @ Because he knew no quietness within him, in his greed he suffered nought to escape,

jps@Job:20:23 @ It shall be for the filling of his belly; He shall cast the fierceness of His wrath upon him, and shall cause it to rain upon him into his flesh.

jps@Job:20:28 @ The increase of his house shall depart, his goods shall flow away in the day of his wrath.

jps@Job:21:9 @ Their houses are safe, without fear, neither is the rod of God upon them.

jps@Job:21:14 @ Yet they said unto God: 'Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of Thy ways.

jps@Job:21:21 @ For what pleasure hath he in his house after him? seeing the number of his months is determined.

jps@Job:21:26 @ They lie down alike in the dust, and the worm covereth them.

jps@Job:21:28 @ For ye say: 'Where is the house of the prince? And where is the tent wherein the wicked dwelt?'

jps@Job:22:3 @ Is it any advantage to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? Or is it gain to Him, that thou makest thy ways blameless?

jps@Job:22:17 @ Who said unto God: 'Depart from us'; and what could the Almighty do unto them?

jps@Job:22:18 @ Yet He filled their houses with good things--but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.

jps@Job:22:19 @ The righteous saw it, and were glad, and the innocent laugh them to scorn:

jps@Job:22:23 @ If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up--if thou put away unrighteousness far from thy tents,

jps@Job:22:24 @ And lay thy treasure in the dust, and the gold of Ophir among the stones of the brooks;

jps@Job:22:25 @ And the Almighty be thy treasure, and precious silver unto thee;

jps@Job:23:2 @ Even to-day is my complaint bitter; my hand is become heavy because of my groaning.

jps@Job:23:4 @ I would order my cause before Him, and fill my mouth with arguments.

jps@Job:23:17 @ Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither did He cover the thick darkness from my face.

jps@Job:24:12 @ From out of the populous city men groan, and the soul of the wounded crieth out; yet God imputeth it not for unseemliness.

jps@Job:24:16 @ In the dark they dig through houses; they shut themselves up in the day-time; they know not the light.

jps@Job:24:20 @ The womb forgetteth him; the worm feedeth sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and unrighteousness is broken as a tree.

jps@Job:24:22 @ He draweth away the mighty also by his power; he riseth up, and he trusteth not his own life.

jps@Job:25:4 @ How then can man be just with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?

jps@Job:27:4 @ Surely my lips shall not speak unrighteousness, neither shall my tongue utter deceit;

jps@Job:27:5 @ Far be it from me that I should justify you; till I die I will not put away mine integrity from me.

jps@Job:27:6 @ My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go; my heart shall not reproach me so long as I live.

jps@Job:27:7 @ Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and let him that riseth up against me be as the unrighteous.

jps@Job:27:16 @ Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare raiment as the clay;

jps@Job:27:17 @ He may prepare it, but the just shall put it on, and the innocent shall divide the silver.

jps@Job:27:18 @ He buildeth his house as a moth, and as a booth which the keeper maketh.

jps@Job:28:2 @ Iron is taken out of the dust, and brass is molten out of the stone.

jps@Job:28:6 @ The stones thereof are the place of sapphires, and it hath dust of gold.

jps@Job:28:10 @ He cutteth out channels among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing.

jps@Job:28:16 @ It cannot be valued with the gold of Ophir, with the precious onyx, or the sapphire.

jps@Job:29:10 @ The voice of the nobles was hushed, and their tongue cleaved to the roof of their mouth.

jps@Job:29:12 @ Because I delivered the poor that cried, the fatherless also, that had none to help him.

jps@Job:29:13 @ The blessing of him that was ready to perish came upon me; and I caused the widow's heart to sing for joy.

jps@Job:29:14 @ I put on righteousness, and it clothed itself with me; my justice was as a robe and a diadem.

jps@Job:29:16 @ I was a father to the needy; and the cause of him that I knew not I searched out.

jps@Job:29:17 @ And I broke the jaws of the unrighteous, and plucked the prey out of his teeth.

jps@Job:30:6 @ In the clefts of the valleys must they dwell, in holes of the earth and of the rocks.

jps@Job:30:7 @ Among the bushes they bray; under the nettles they are gathered together.

jps@Job:30:19 @ He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes.

jps@Job:30:22 @ Thou liftest me up to the wind, Thou causest me to ride upon it; and Thou dissolvest my substance.

jps@Job:30:23 @ For I know that Thou wilt bring me to death, and to the house appointed for all living.

jps@Job:30:24 @ Surely none shall put forth his hand to a ruinous heap, neither because of these things shall help come in one's calamity,

jps@Job:31:3 @ Is it not calamity to the unrighteous, and disaster to the workers of iniquity?

jps@Job:31:6 @ Let me be weighed in a just balance, that God may know mine integrity--

jps@Job:31:11 @ For that were a heinous crime; yea, it were an iniquity to be punished by the judges.

jps@Job:31:13 @ If I did despise the cause of my man-servant, or of my maid-servant, when they contended with me--

jps@Job:31:15 @ Did not He that made me in the womb make him? And did not One fashion us in the womb?

jps@Job:31:16 @ If I have withheld aught that the poor desired, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;

jps@Job:31:21 @ If I have lifted up my hand against the fatherless, because I saw my help in the gate;

jps@Job:31:25 @ If I rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;

jps@Job:31:34 @ Because I feared the great multitude, and the most contemptible among families terrified me, so that I kept silence, and went not out of the door.

jps@Job:31:39 @ If I have eaten the fruits thereof without money, or have caused the tillers thereof to be disappointed--

jps@Job:32:1 @ So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes.

jps@Job:32:2 @ Then was kindled the wrath of Elihu the son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram; against Job was his wrath kindled, because he justified himself rather than God.

jps@Job:32:3 @ Also against his three friends was his wrath kindled, because they had found no answer, and yet had condemned Job.

jps@Job:32:4 @ Now Elihu had waited to speak unto Job, because they were older than he.

jps@Job:32:16 @ And shall I wait, because they speak not, because they stand still, and answer no more?

jps@Job:33:23 @ If there be for him an angel, an intercessor, one among a thousand, to vouch for a man's uprightness;

jps@Job:33:24 @ Then He is gracious unto him, and saith: 'Deliver him from going down to the pit, I have found a ransom.'

jps@Job:33:26 @ He prayeth unto God, and He is favourable unto him; so that he seeth His face with joy; and He restoreth unto man his righteousness.

jps@Job:33:32 @ If thou hast any thing to say, answer me; speak, for I desire to justify thee.

jps@Job:34:4 @ Let us choose for us that which is right; let us know among ourselves what is good.

jps@Job:34:5 @ For Job hath said: 'I am righteous, and God hath taken away my right;

jps@Job:34:11 @ For the work of a man will He requite unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways.

jps@Job:34:12 @ Yea, of a surety, God will not do wickedly, neither will the Almighty pervert justice.

jps@Job:34:15 @ All flesh shall perish together, and man shall return unto dust.

jps@Job:34:17 @ Shall even one that hateth right govern? And wilt thou condemn Him that is just and mighty--

jps@Job:34:25 @ Therefore He taketh knowledge of their works; and He overturneth them in the night, so that they are crushed.

jps@Job:34:27 @ Because they turned aside from following Him, and would not have regard to any of His ways;

jps@Job:34:28 @ So that they cause the cry of the poor to come unto Him, and He heareth the cry of the afflicted.

jps@Job:34:33 @ Shall His recompense be as thou wilt? For thou loathest it, so that thou must choose, and not I; therefore speak what thou knowest.

jps@Job:34:36 @ Would that Job were tried unto the end, because of his answering like wicked men.

jps@Job:34:37 @ For he addeth rebellion unto his sin, he clappeth his hands among us, and multiplieth his words against God.

jps@Job:35:2 @ Thinkest thou this to be thy right, or sayest thou: 'I am righteousness before God',

jps@Job:35:7 @ If thou be righteous, what givest thou Him? Or what receiveth He of thy hand?

jps@Job:35:8 @ Thy wickedness concerneth a man as thou art; and thy righteousness a son of man.

jps@Job:35:11 @ Who teacheth us more than the beasts of the earth, and maketh us wiser than the fowls of heaven?'

jps@Job:35:12 @ There they cry, but none giveth answer, because of the pride of evil men.

jps@Job:35:14 @ Yea, when thou sayest thou canst not see Him--the cause is before Him; therefore wait thou for Him.

jps@Job:36:3 @ I will fetch my knowledge from afar, and will ascribe righteousness to my Maker.

jps@Job:36:7 @ He withdraweth not His eyes from the righteous; but with kings upon the throne He setteth them for ever, and they are exalted.

jps@Job:36:17 @ And thou art full of the judgment of the wicked; judgment and justice take hold on them.

jps@Job:36:23 @ Who hath enjoined Him His way? Or who hath said: 'Thou hast wrought unrighteousness'?

jps@Job:37:5 @ God thundereth marvellously with His voice; great things doeth He, which we cannot comprehend.

jps@Job:37:13 @ Whether it be for correction, or for His earth, or for mercy, that He cause it to come.

jps@Job:37:14 @ Hearken unto this, O Job; stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.

jps@Job:37:15 @ Dost thou know how God enjoineth them, and causeth the lightning of His cloud to shine?

jps@Job:37:16 @ Dost thou know the balancings of the clouds, the wondrous works of Him who is perfect in knowledge?

jps@Job:37:19 @ Teach us what we shall say unto Him; for we cannot order our speech by reason of darkness.

jps@Job:37:23 @ The Almighty, whom we cannot find out, is excellent in power, yet to judgment and plenteous justice He doeth no violence.

jps@Job:38:11 @ And said: 'Thus far shalt thou come, but no further; and here shall thy proud waves be stayed'?

jps@Job:38:12 @ Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days began, and caused the dayspring to know its place;

jps@Job:38:20 @ That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?

jps@Job:38:26 @ To cause it to rain on a land where no man is, on the wilderness, wherein there is no man;

jps@Job:38:27 @ To satisfy the desolate and waste ground, and to cause the bud of the tender herb to spring forth?

jps@Job:38:38 @ When the dust runneth into a mass, and the clods cleave fast together?

jps@Job:39:6 @ Whose house I have made the wilderness, and the salt land his dwelling-place.

jps@Job:39:11 @ Wilt thou trust him, because his strength is great? Or wilt thou leave thy labour to him?

jps@Job:39:13 @ The wing of the ostrich beateth joyously; but are her pinions and feathers the kindly stork's?

jps@Job:39:14 @ For she leaveth her eggs on the earth, and warmeth them in dust,

jps@Job:39:15 @ And forgetteth that the foot may crush them, or that the wild beast may trample them.

jps@Job:39:17 @ Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath He imparted to her understanding.

jps@Job:39:20 @ Hast thou made him to leap as a locust? The glory of his snorting is terrible.

jps@Job:40:8 @ Wilt thou even make void My judgment? Wilt thou condemn Me, that thou mayest be justified?

jps@Job:40:13 @ Hide them in the dust together; bind their faces in the hidden place.

jps@Job:40:21 @ He lieth under the lotus-trees, in the covert of the reed, and fens.

jps@Job:40:22 @ The lotus-trees cover him with their shadow; the willows of the brook compass him about.

jps@Job:40:23 @ Behold, if a river overflow, he trembleth not; he is confident, though the Jordan rush forth to his mouth.

jps@Job:41:20 @ Out of his nostrils goeth smoke, as out of a seething pot and burning rushes.

jps@Job:42:6 @ Wherefore I abhor my words, and repent, seeing I am dust and ashes.

jps@Job:42:11 @ Then came there unto him all his brethren, and all his sisters, and all they that had been of his acquaintance before, and did eat bread with him in his house; and they bemoaned him, and comforted him concerning all the evil that the LORD had brought upon him; every man also gave him a piece of money, and every one a ring of gold.

jps@Job:42:12 @ So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning; and he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she-asses.

jps@Psalms:1:5 @ Therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

jps@Psalms:1:6 @ For the LORD regardeth the way of the righteous; but the way of the wicked shall perish.

jps@Psalms:4:6 @ Many there are that say: 'Oh that we could see some good!' LORD, lift Thou up the light of Thy countenance upon us.

jps@Psalms:5:7 @ But as for me, in the abundance of Thy lovingkindness will I come into Thy house; I will bow down toward Thy holy temple in the fear of Thee.

jps@Psalms:5:8 @ O LORD, lead me in Thy righteousness because of them that lie in wait for me; make Thy way straight before my face.

jps@Zechariah:8:12 @ For as the seed of peace, the vine shall give her fruit, and the ground shall give her increase, and the heavens shall give their dew; and I will cause the remnant of this people to inherit all these things.

jps@Zechariah:8:13 @ And it shall come to pass that, as ye were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so will I save you, and ye shall be a blessing; fear not, but let your hands be strong.

jps@Zechariah:8:14 @ For thus saith the LORD of host: As I purposed to do evil unto you, when your fathers provoked Me, saith the LORD of hosts, and I repented not;

jps@Zechariah:8:15 @ so again do I purpose in these days to do good unto Jerusalem and to the house of Judah; fear ye not.

jps@Zechariah:8:19 @ 'Thus saith the LORD of hosts: The fast of the fourth month, and the fast of the fifth, and the fast of the seventh, and the fast of the tenth, shall be to the house of Judah joy and gladness, and cheerful seasons; therefore love ye truth and peace.

jps@Zechariah:8:20 @ Thus saith the LORD of hosts: It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come peoples, and the inhabitants of many cities;

jps@Zechariah:8:21 @ and the inhabitants of one city shall go to another, saying: Let us go speedily to entreat the favour of the LORD, and to seek the LORD of hosts; I will go also.

jps@Zechariah:8:22 @ Yea, many peoples and mighty nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to entreat the favour of the LORD.

jps@Zechariah:8:23 @ Thus saith the LORD of hosts: In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold, out of all the languages of the nations, shall even take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying: We will go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.'

jps@Zechariah:9:1 @ The burden of the word of the LORD. In the land of Hadrach, and in Damascus shall be His resting-place; for the LORD'S is the eye of man and all the tribes of Israel.

jps@Zechariah:9:3 @ And Tyre did build herself a stronghold, and heaped up silver as the dust, and fine gold as the mire of the streets.

jps@Zechariah:9:7 @ And I will take away his blood out of his mouth, and his detestable things from between his teeth, and he also shall be a remnant for our God; and he shall be as a chief in Judah, and Ekron as a Jebusite.

jps@Zechariah:9:8 @ And I will encamp about My house against the army, that none pass through or return; and no oppressor shall pass through them any more; for now have I seen with Mine eyes.

jps@Zechariah:9:9 @ Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion, shout, O daughter of Jerusalem; behold, thy king cometh unto thee, he is triumphant, and victorious, lowly, and riding upon an ass, even upon a colt the foal of an ass.

jps@Zechariah:9:10 @ And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off, and he shall speak peace unto the nations; and his dominion shall be from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth.

jps@Zechariah:9:11 @ As for thee also, because of the blood of thy covenant I send forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

jps@Zechariah:10:2 @ For the teraphim have spoken vanity, and the diviners have seen a lie, and the dreams speak falsely, they comfort in vain; therefore they go their way like sheep, they are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.

jps@Zechariah:10:3 @ Mine anger is kindled against the shepherds, and I will punish the he-goats; for the LORD of hosts hath remembered His flock the house of Judah, and maketh them as His majestic horse in the battle.

jps@Zechariah:10:5 @ And they shall be as mighty men, treading down in the mire of the streets in the battle, and they shall fight, because the LORD is with them; and the riders on horses shall be confounded.

jps@Zechariah:10:6 @ And I will strengthen the house of Judah, and I will save the house of Joseph, and I will bring them back, for I have compassion upon them, and they shall be as though I had not cast them off; for I am the LORD their God, and I will hear them.

jps@Zechariah:11:2 @ Wail, O cypress-tree, for the cedar is fallen; because the glorious ones are spoiled; wail, O ye oaks of Bashan, for the strong forest is come down.

jps@Zechariah:11:4 @ Thus said the LORD my God: 'Feed the flock of slaughter;

jps@Zechariah:11:7 @ So I fed the flock of slaughter, verily the poor of the flock. And I took unto me two staves; the one I called Graciousness, and the other I called Binders; and I fed the flock.

jps@Zechariah:11:10 @ And I took my staff Graciousness, and cut it asunder, 'that I might break My covenant which I had made with all the peoples.'

jps@Zechariah:11:13 @ And the LORD said unto me: 'Cast it into the treasury, the goodly price that I was prized at of them.' And I took the thirty pieces of silver, and cast them into the treasury, in the house of the LORD.

jps@Zechariah:12:2 @ Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of staggering unto all the peoples round about, and upon Judah also shall it fall to be in the siege against Jerusalem.

jps@Zechariah:12:3 @ And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will make Jerusalem a stone of burden for all the peoples; all that burden themselves with it shall be sore wounded; and all the nations of the earth shall be gathered together against it.

jps@Zechariah:12:4 @ In that day, saith the LORD, I will smite every horse with bewilderment, and his rider with madness; and I will open Mine eyes upon the house of Judah, and will smite every horse of the peoples with blindness.

jps@Zechariah:12:5 @ And the chiefs of Judah shall say in their heart: 'The inhabitants of Jerusalem are my strength through the LORD of hosts their God.'

jps@Zechariah:12:6 @ In that day will I make the chiefs of Judah like a pan of fire among the wood, and like a torch of fire among sheaves; and they shall devour all the peoples round about, on the right hand and on the left; and Jerusalem shall be inhabited again in her own place, even in Jerusalem.

jps@Zechariah:12:7 @ The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem be not magnified above Judah.

jps@Zechariah:12:8 @ In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that stumbleth among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as a godlike being, as the angel of the LORD before them.

jps@Zechariah:12:9 @ And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem.

jps@Zechariah:12:10 @ And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born.

jps@Zechariah:12:11 @ In that day shall there be a great mourning in Jerusalem, as the mourning of Hadadrimmon in the valley of Megiddon.

jps@Zechariah:12:12 @ And the land shall mourn, every family apart: the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart;

jps@Zechariah:12:13 @ The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart; the family of the Shimeites apart, and their wives apart;

jps@Zechariah:13:1 @ In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for purification and for sprinkling.

jps@Zechariah:13:2 @ And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD of hosts, that I will cut off the names of the idols out of the land, and they shall no more be remembered; and also I will cause the prophets and the unclean spirit to pass out of the land.

jps@Zechariah:13:3 @ And it shall come to pass that, when any shall yet prophesy, then his father and his mother that begot him shall say unto him: 'Thou shalt not live, for thou speakest lies in the name of the LORD'; and his father and his mother that begot him shall thrust him through when he prophesieth.

jps@Zechariah:13:6 @ And one shall say unto him: 'What are these wounds between thy hands?' Then he shall answer: 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.'

jps@Zechariah:14:2 @ For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; and the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; and half of the city shall go forth into captivity, but the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

jps@Zechariah:14:4 @ And His feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleft in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, so that there shall be a very great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward the south.

jps@Zechariah:14:8 @ And it shall come to pass in that day, that living waters shall go out from Jerusalem: half of them toward the eastern sea, and half of them toward the western sea; in summer and in winter shall it be.

jps@Zechariah:14:10 @ All the land shall be turned as the Arabah, from Geba to Rimmon south of Jerusalem; and she shall be lifted up, and inhabited in her place, from Benjamin's gate unto the place of the first gate, unto the corner gate, and from the tower of Hananel unto the king's winepresses.

jps@Zechariah:14:11 @ And men shall dwell therein, and there shall be no more extermination; but Jerusalem shall dwell safely.

jps@Zechariah:14:12 @ And this shall be the plague wherewith the LORD will smite all the peoples that have warred against Jerusalem: their flesh shall consume away while they stand upon their feet, and their eyes shall consume away in their sockets, and their tongue shall consume away in their mouth.

jps@Zechariah:14:14 @ And Judah also shall fight against Jerusalem; and the wealth of all the nations round about shall be gathered together, gold, and silver, and apparel, in great abundance.

jps@Zechariah:14:16 @ And it shall come to pass, that every one that is left of all the nations that came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the feast of tabernacles.

jps@Zechariah:14:17 @ And it shall be, that whoso of the families of the earth goeth not up unto Jerusalem to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, upon them there shall be no rain.

jps@Zechariah:14:20 @ In that day shall there be upon the bells of the horses: HOLY UNTO THE LORD; and the pots in the LORD'S house shall be like the basins before the altar.

jps@Zechariah:14:21 @ Yea, every pot in Jerusalem and in Judah shall be holy unto the LORD of hosts; and all they that sacrifice shall come and take of them, and seethe therein; and in that day there shall be no more a trafficker in the house of the LORD of hosts.

jps@Malachi:1:2 @ I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say: 'Wherein hast Thou loved us?' Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the LORD; yet I loved Jacob;

jps@Malachi:1:4 @ Whereas Edom saith: 'We are beaten down, but we will return and build the waste places'; thus saith the LORD of hosts: They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall be called The border of wickedness, and The people whom the LORD execrateth for ever.

jps@Malachi:1:9 @ And now, I pray you, entreat the favour of God that He may be gracious unto us!--This hath been of your doing.--Will He accept any of your persons? saith the LORD of hosts.

jps@Malachi:1:13 @ Ye say also: 'Behold, what a weariness is it!' and ye have snuffed at it, saith the LORD of hosts; and ye have brought that which was taken by violence, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye bring the offering; should I accept this of your hand? saith the LORD.

jps@Malachi:2:2 @ If ye will not hearken, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto My name, saith the LORD of hosts, then will I send the curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings; yea, I curse them, because ye do not lay it to heart.

jps@Malachi:2:6 @ The law of truth was in his mouth, and unrighteousness was not found in his lips; he walked with Me in peace and uprightness, and did turn many away from iniquity.

jps@Malachi:2:8 @ But ye are turned aside out of the way; ye have caused many to stumble in the law; ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.

jps@Malachi:2:10 @ Have we not all one father? Hath not one God created us? Why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, profaning the covenant of our fathers?

jps@Malachi:2:11 @ Judah hath dealt treacherously, and an abomination is committed in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah hath profaned the holiness of the LORD which He loveth, and hath married the daughter of a strange god.

jps@Malachi:2:14 @ Yet ye say: 'Wherefore?' Because the LORD hath been witness between thee and the wife of thy youth, against whom thou hast dealt treacherously, though she is thy companion, and the wife of thy covenant.

jps@Malachi:2:15 @ And not one hath done so who had exuberance of spirit! For what seeketh the one? a seed given of God. Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.

jps@Malachi:2:16 @ For I hate putting away, saith the LORD, the God of Israel, and him that covereth his garment with violence, saith the LORD of hosts; therefore take heed to your spirit, that ye deal not treacherously.

jps@Malachi:2:17 @ Ye have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet ye say: 'Wherein have we wearied Him?' In that ye say: 'Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and He delighteth in them; or where is the God of justice?'

jps@Malachi:3:3 @ And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver; and there shall be they that shall offer unto the LORD offerings in righteousness.
