drb@Romans:1:28 @And as they liked not to have God in their knowledge, God delivered them up to a reprobate sense, to do those things which are not convenient;

drb@Romans:1:32 @Who, having known the justice of God, did not understand that they who do such things, are worthy of death; and not only they that do them, but they also that consent to them that do them.

drb@Romans:2:1 @Wherefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest. For wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself. For thou dost the same things which thou judgest.

drb@Romans:2:2 @For we know that the judgment of God is, according to truth, against them that do such things.

drb@Romans:2:3 @And thinkest thou this, O man, that judgest them who do such things, and dost the same, that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?

drb@Romans:2:13 @For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

drb@Romans:2:14 @For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature those things that are of the law; these having not the law are a law to themselves:

drb@Romans:2:22 @Thou that sayest, men should not commit adultery, committest adultery: thou that abhorrest idols, committest sacrilege:

drb@Romans:3:8 @And not rather (as we are slandered, and as some affirm that we say) let us do evil, that there may come good? whose damnation is just.

drb@Romans:3:9 @What then? Do we excel them? No, not so. For we have charged both Jews, and Greeks, that they are all under sin.

drb@Romans:3:12 @All have turned out of the way; they are become unprofitable together: there is none that doth good, there is not so much as one.

drb@Romans:3:23 @For all have sinned, and do need the glory of God.

drb@Romans:3:31 @Do we, then, destroy the law through faith? God forbid: but we establish the law.

drb@Romans:4:9 @This blessedness then, doth it remain in the circumcision only, or in the uncircumcision also? For we say that unto Abraham faith was reputed to justice.

drb@Romans:6:9 @Knowing that Christ rising again from the dead, dieth now no more, death shall no more have dominion over him.

drb@Romans:6:11 @So do you also reckon, that you are dead to sin, but alive unto God, in Christ Jesus our Lord.

drb@Romans:6:14 @For sin shall not have dominion over you; for you are not under the law, but under grace

drb@Romans:6:17 @But thanks be to God, that you were the servants of sin, but have obeyed from the heart, unto that form of doctrine, into which you have been delivered.

drb@Romans:7:1 @Know you not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) that the law hath dominion over a man, as long as it liveth?

drb@Romans:7:7 @What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? God forbid. But I do not know sin, but by the law; for I had not known concupiscence, if the law did not say: Thou shalt not covet.

drb@Romans:7:15 @For that which I work, I understand not. For I do not that good which I will; but the evil which I hate, that I do.

drb@Romans:7:16 @If then I do that which I will not, I consent to the law, that it is good

drb@Romans:7:17 @Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

drb@Romans:7:19 @For the good which I will, I do not; but the evil which I will not, that I do.

drb@Romans:7:20 @Now if I do that which I will not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.

drb@Romans:7:21 @I find then a law, that when I have a will to do good, evil is present with me.

drb@Romans:8:3 @For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh; God sending his own Son, in the likeness of sinful flesh and of sin, hath condemned sin in the flesh;

drb@Romans:8:6 @For the wisdom of the flesh is death; but the wisdom of the spirit is life and peace.

drb@Romans:8:7 @Because the wisdom of the flesh is an enemy to God; for it is not subject to the law of God, neither can it be.

drb@Romans:8:15 @For you have not received the spirit of bondage again in fear; but you have received the spirit of adoption of sons, whereby we cry: Abba (Father).

drb@Romans:8:23 @And not only it, but ourselves also, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption of the sons of God, the redemption of our body.

drb@Romans:8:24 @For we are saved by hope. But hope that is seen, is not hope. For what a man seeth, why doth he hope for?

drb@Romans:9:2 @For when the children were not yet born, nor had done any good or evil (that the purpose of God, according to election, might stand,)

drb@Romans:9:10 @Thou wilt say therefore to me: Why doth he then find fault? for who resisteth his will?

drb@Romans:9:20 @And as Isaias foretold: Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been made as Sodom, and we had been like unto Gomorrha.

drb@Romans:10:5 @For Moses wrote, that the justice which is of the law, the man that shall do it, shall live by it.

drb@Romans:10:6 @But the justice which is of faith, speaketh thus: Say not in thy heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? that is, to bring Christ down;

drb@Romans:10:16 @But all do not obey the gospel. For Isaias saith: Lord, who hath believed our report?

drb@Romans:11:1 @Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see: and bow down their back always.

drb@Romans:11:24 @O the depth of the riches of the wisdom and of the knowledge of God! How incomprehensible are his judgments, and how unsearchable his ways!

drb@Romans:12:7 @Or ministry, in ministering; or he that teacheth, in doctrine;

drb@Romans:12:20 @But if thy enemy be hungry, give him to eat; if he thirst, give him to drink. For, doing this, thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.

drb@Romans:13:3 @For princes are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good: and thou shalt have praise from the same.

drb@Romans:13:4 @For he is God's minister to thee, for good. But if thou do that which is evil, fear: for he beareth not the sword in vain. For he is God's minister: an avenger to execute wrath upon him that doth evil.

drb@Romans:14:10 @But thou, why judgest thou thy brother? or thou, why dost thou despise thy brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

drb@Romans:14:17 @For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but justice, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost

drb@Romans:15:26 @For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a contribution for the poor of the saints that are in Jerusalem.

drb@Romans:16:4 @(Who have for my life laid down their own necks: to whom not I only give thanks, but also all the churches of the Gentiles,)

drb@Romans:16:17 @Now I beseech you, brethren, to mark them who make dissensions and offences contrary to the doctrine which you have learned, and avoid them.

drb@1Corinthians:1:17 @For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not in wisdom of speech, lest the cross of Christ should be made void.

drb@1Corinthians:1:19 @For it is written: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the prudence of the prudent I will reject.

drb@1Corinthians:1:20 @Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

drb@1Corinthians:1:21 @For seeing that in the wisdom of God the world, by wisdom, knew not God, it pleased God, by the foolishness of our preaching, to save them that believe.

drb@1Corinthians:1:22 @For both the Jews require signs, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:

drb@1Corinthians:1:24 @But unto them that are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

drb@1Corinthians:1:30 @But of him are you in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and justice, and sanctification, and redemption:

drb@1Corinthians:2:1 @And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not in loftiness of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of Christ.

drb@1Corinthians:2:4 @And my speech and my preaching was not in the persuasive words of human wisdom, but in shewing of the Spirit and power;

drb@1Corinthians:2:5 @That your faith might not stand on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

drb@1Corinthians:2:6 @Howbeit we speak wisdom among the perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, neither of the princes of this world that come to nought;

drb@1Corinthians:2:7 @But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, a wisdom which is hidden, which God ordained before the world, unto our glory:

drb@1Corinthians:2:13 @Which things also we speak, not in the learned words of human wisdom; but in the doctrine of the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

drb@1Corinthians:3:19 @For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written: I will catch the wise in their own craftiness.

drb@1Corinthians:4:3 @But to me it is a very small thing to be judged by you, or by man's day; but neither do I judge my own self.

drb@1Corinthians:4:7 @For who distinguisheth thee? Or what hast thou that thou hast not received? And if thou hast received, why dost thou glory, as if thou hadst not received it?

drb@1Corinthians:4:20 @For the kingdom of God is not in speech, but in power.

drb@1Corinthians:5:2 @And you are puffed up; and have not rather mourned, that he might be taken away from among you, that hath done this deed.

drb@1Corinthians:5:3 @I indeed, absent in body, but present in spirit, have already judged, as though I were present, him that hath so done,

drb@1Corinthians:5:10 @I mean not with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or the extortioners, or the servers of idols; otherwise you must needs go out of this world.

drb@1Corinthians:5:11 @But now I have written to you, not to keep company, if any man that is named a brother, be a fornicator, or covetous, or a server of idols, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner: with such a one, not so much as to eat.

drb@1Corinthians:5:12 @For what have I to do to judge them that are without? Do not you judge them that are within?

drb@1Corinthians:6:7 @Already indeed there is plainly a fault among you, that you have lawsuits one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

drb@1Corinthians:6:8 @But you do wrong and defraud, and that to your brethren.

drb@1Corinthians:6:9 @Know you not that the unjust shall not possess the kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers,

drb@1Corinthians:6:10 @Nor the effeminate, nor liers with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners, shall possess the kingdom of God.

drb@1Corinthians:6:18 @Fly fornication. Every sin that a man doth, is without the body; but he that committeth fornication, sinneth against his own body.

drb@1Corinthians:7:8 @But I say to the unmarried, and to the widows: It is good for them if they so continue, even as I.

drb@1Corinthians:7:9 @But if they do not contain themselves, let them marry. For it is better to marry than to be burnt.

drb@1Corinthians:7:36 @But if any man think that he seemeth dishonoured, with regard to his virgin, for that she is above the age, and it must so be: let him do what he will; he sinneth not, if she marry.

drb@1Corinthians:7:37 @For he that hath determined being steadfast in his heart, having no necessity, but having power of his own will; and hath judged this in his heart, to keep his virgin, doth well.

drb@1Corinthians:7:38 @Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better.

drb@1Corinthians:8:1 @Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up; but charity edifieth.

drb@1Corinthians:8:4 @But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.

drb@1Corinthians:8:7 @But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol: eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

drb@1Corinthians:8:8 @But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more; nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.

drb@1Corinthians:8:10 @For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?

drb@1Corinthians:9:3 @My defence with them that do examine me is this.

drb@1Corinthians:9:6 @Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?

drb@1Corinthians:9:8 @Speak I these things according to man? Or doth not the law also say these things?

drb@1Corinthians:9:9 @For it is written in the law of Moses: Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?

drb@1Corinthians:9:10 @Or doth he say this indeed for our sakes? For these things are written for our sakes: that he that plougheth, should plough in hope; and he that thrasheth, in hope to receive fruit.

drb@1Corinthians:9:15 @But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die, rather than that any man should make my glory void.

drb@1Corinthians:9:17 @For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me:

drb@1Corinthians:9:23 @And I do all things for the gospel's sake: that I may be made partaker thereof.

drb@1Corinthians:10:6 @Now these things were done in a figure of us, that we should not covet evil things as they also coveted.

drb@1Corinthians:10:7 @Neither become ye idolaters, as some of them, as it is written: The people sat down to eat and drink, and rose up to play.

drb@1Corinthians:10:10 @Neither do you murmur: as some of them murmured, and were destroyed by the destroyer.

drb@1Corinthians:10:14 @Wherefore, my dearly beloved, fly from the service of idols.

drb@1Corinthians:10:19 @What then? Do I say, that what is offered in sacrifice to idols, is any thing? Or, that the idol is any thing?

drb@1Corinthians:10:22 @Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he? All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient.

drb@1Corinthians:10:23 @All things are lawful for me, but all things do not edify.

drb@1Corinthians:10:28 @But if any man say: This has been sacrificed to idols, do not eat of it for his sake that told it, and for conscience' sake.

drb@1Corinthians:10:31 @Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatsoever else you do, do all to the glory of God.

drb@1Corinthians:11:13 @You yourselves judge: doth it become a woman, to pray unto God uncovered?

drb@1Corinthians:11:14 @Doth not even nature itself teach you, that a man indeed, if he nourish his hair, it is a shame unto him?

drb@1Corinthians:11:22 @What, have you not houses to eat and to drink in? Or despise ye the church of God; and put them to shame that have not? What shall I say to you? Do I praise you? In this I praise you not.

drb@1Corinthians:11:24 @And giving thanks, broke, and said: Take ye, and eat: this is my body, which shall be delivered for you: this do for the commemoration of me.

drb@1Corinthians:11:25 @In like manner also the chalice, after he had supped, saying: This chalice is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as often as you shall drink, for the commemoration of me.

drb@1Corinthians:12:2 @You know that when you were heathens, you went to dumb idols, according as you were led.

drb@1Corinthians:12:8 @To one indeed, by the Spirit, is given the word of wisdom: and to another, the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;

drb@1Corinthians:12:28 @And God indeed hath set some in the church; first apostles, secondly prophets, thirdly doctors; after that miracles; then the graces of healing, helps, governments, kinds of tongues, interpretations of speeches.

drb@1Corinthians:12:29 @Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all doctors?

drb@1Corinthians:12:30 @Are all workers of miracles? Have all the grace of healing? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret?

drb@1Corinthians:13:10 @But when that which is perfect is come, that which is in part shall be done away.

drb@1Corinthians:14:6 @But now, brethren, if I come to you speaking with tongues, what shall I profit you, unless I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in doctrine?

drb@1Corinthians:14:20 @Brethren, do not become children in sense: but in malice be children, and in sense be perfect.

drb@1Corinthians:14:25 @The secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so, falling down on his face, he will adore God, affirming that God is among you indeed.

drb@1Corinthians:14:26 @How is it then, brethren? When you come together, every one of you hath a psalm, hath a doctrine, hath a revelation, hath a tongue, hath an interpretation: let all things be done to edification.

drb@1Corinthians:14:40 @But let all things be done decently, and according to order.

drb@1Corinthians:15:12 @Now if Christ be preached, that he arose again from the dead, how do some among you say, that there is no resurrection of the dead?

drb@1Corinthians:15:24 @Afterwards the end, when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God and the Father, when he shall have brought to nought all principality, and power, and virtue.

drb@1Corinthians:15:27 @All things are put under him; undoubtedly, he is excepted, who put all things under him.

drb@1Corinthians:15:29 @Otherwise what shall they do that are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not again at all? why are they then baptized for them?

drb@1Corinthians:15:32 @If (according to man) I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what doth it profit me, if the dead rise not again? Let us eat and drink, for to morrow we shall die.

drb@1Corinthians:15:35 @But some man will say: How do the dead rise again? or with what manner of body shall they come?

drb@1Corinthians:15:50 @Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot possess the kingdom of God: neither shall corruption possess incorruption.

drb@1Corinthians:16:1 @Now concerning the collections that are made for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, so do ye also.

drb@1Corinthians:16:5 @Now I will come to you, when I shall have passed through Macedonia. For I shall pass through Macedonia.

drb@1Corinthians:16:9 @For a great door and evident is opened unto me: and many adversaries.

drb@1Corinthians:16:10 @Now if Timothy come, see that he be with you without fear, for he worketh the work of the Lord, as I also do.

drb@1Corinthians:16:13 @Watch ye, stand fast in the faith,do manfully, and be strengthened.

drb@1Corinthians:16:14 @Let all your things be done in charity.

drb@2Corinthians:1:5 @For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us: so also by Christ doth our comfort abound.

drb@2Corinthians:1:10 @Who hath delivered and doth deliver us out of so great dangers: in whom we trust that he will yet also deliver us.

drb@2Corinthians:1:12 @For our glory is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity of heart and sincerity of God, and not in carnal wisdom, but in the grace of God, we have conversed in this world: and more abundantly towards you.

drb@2Corinthians:1:16 @And to pass by you into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and by you to be brought on my way towards Judea.

drb@2Corinthians:1:17 @Whereas then I was thus minded, did I use lightness? Or, the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that there should be with me, It is, and It is not?

drb@2Corinthians:1:24 @not because we exercise dominion over your faith: but we are helpers of your joy: for in faith you stand.

drb@2Corinthians:2:10 @And to whom you have pardoned any thing, I also. For, what I have pardoned, if I have pardoned any thing, for your sakes have I done it in the person of Christ.

drb@2Corinthians:2:12 @And when I was come to Troas for the gospel of Christ, and a door was opened unto me in the Lord,

drb@2Corinthians:2:13 @I had no rest in my spirit, because I found not Titus my brother; but bidding them farewell, I went into Macedonia.

drb@2Corinthians:2:14 @Now thanks be to God, who always maketh us to triumph in Christ Jesus, and manifesteth the odour of his knowledge by us in every place.

drb@2Corinthians:2:15 @For we are the good odour of Christ unto God, in them that are saved, and in them that perish.

drb@2Corinthians:2:16 @To the one indeed the odour of death unto death: but to the others the odour of life unto life. And for these things who is so sufficient?

drb@2Corinthians:3:1 @Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or do we need (as some do) epistles of commendation to you, or from you?

drb@2Corinthians:3:11 @For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is in glory.

drb@2Corinthians:4:9 @We suffer persecution, but are not forsaken; we are cast down, but we perish not:

drb@2Corinthians:5:4 @For we also, who are in this tabernacle, do groan, being burthened; because we would not be unclothed, but clothed upon, that that which is mortal may be swallowed up by life.

drb@2Corinthians:5:10 @For we must all be manifested before the judgement seat of Christ, that every one may receive the proper things of the body, according as he hath done, whether it be good or evil.

drb@2Corinthians:5:20 @For Christ therefore we are ambassadors, God as it were exhorting by us. For Christ, we beseech you, be reconciled to God.

drb@2Corinthians:6:1 @And we helping do exhort you, that you receive not the grace of God in vain.

drb@2Corinthians:6:16 @And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God; as God saith: I will dwell in them, and walk among them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

drb@2Corinthians:7:5 @For also when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we suffered all tribulation; combats without, fears within.

drb@2Corinthians:7:8 @For although I made you sorrowful by my epistle, I do not repent; and if I did repent, seeing that the same epistle (although but for a time) did make you sorrowful;

drb@2Corinthians:8:1 @Now we make known unto you, brethren, the grace of God, that hath been given in the churches of Macedonia.

drb@2Corinthians:8:4 @With much entreaty begging of us the grace and communication of the ministry that is done toward the saints.

drb@2Corinthians:8:10 @And herein I give my advice; for this is profitable for you, who have begun not only to do, but also to be willing, a year ago.

drb@2Corinthians:9:1 @For concerning the ministry that is done towards the saints, it is superfluous for me to write unto you.

drb@2Corinthians:9:2 @For I know your forward mind: for which I boast of you to the Macedonians. That Achaia also is ready from the year past, and your emulation hath provoked very many.

drb@2Corinthians:9:4 @Lest, when the Macedonians shall come with me, and find you unprepared, we (not to say ye) should be ashamed in this matter.

drb@2Corinthians:9:12 @Because the administration of this office doth not only supply the want of the saints, but aboundeth also by many thanksgivings in the Lord,

drb@2Corinthians:10:3 @For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh.

drb@2Corinthians:10:4 @For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty to God unto the pulling down of fortifications, destroying counsels,

drb@2Corinthians:11:1 @Would to God you could bear with some little of my folly: but do bear with me.

drb@2Corinthians:11:5 @For I suppose that I have done nothing less than the great apostles.

drb@2Corinthians:11:9 @And, when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man: for that which was wanting to me, the brethren supplied who came from Macedonia; and in all things I have kept myself from being burthensome to you, and so I will keep myself.

drb@2Corinthians:11:12 @But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off the occasion from them that desire occasion, that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we.

drb@2Corinthians:11:33 @And through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall, and so escaped his hands.

drb@2Corinthians:12:13 @For what is there that you have had less than the other churches, but that I myself was not burthensome to you? Pardon me this injury

drb@2Corinthians:12:21 @Lest again, when I come, God humble me among you: and I mourn many of them that sinned before, and have not done penance for the uncleanness, and fornication, and lasciviousness, that they have committed.

drb@2Corinthians:13:3 @Do you seek a proof of Christ that speaketh in me, who towards you is not weak, but is mighty in you?

drb@2Corinthians:13:7 @Now we pray God, that you may do no evil, not that we may appear approved, but that you may do that which is good, and that we may be as reprobates.

drb@2Corinthians:13:8 @For we can do nothing against the truth; but for the truth.

drb@Galatians:1:10 @For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? If I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

drb@Galatians:1:23 @But they had heard only: He, who persecuted us in times past, doth now preach the faith which once he impugned:

drb@Galatians:2:10 @Only that we should be mindful of the poor: which same thing also I was careful to do.

drb@Galatians:2:14 @But when I saw that they walked not uprightly unto the truth of the gospel, I said to Cephas before them all: If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of the Gentiles, and not as the Jews do, how dost thou compel the Gentiles to live as do the Jews?

drb@Galatians:3:5 @He therefore who giveth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you; doth he do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of the faith?

drb@Galatians:3:12 @But the law is not of faith: but, He that doth those things, shall live in them.

drb@Galatians:3:17 @Now this I say, that the testament which was confirmed by God, the law which was made after four hundred and thirty years, doth not disannul, to make the promise of no effect.

drb@Galatians:4:5 @That he might redeem them who were under the law: that we might receive the adoption of sons.

drb@Galatians:4:15 @Where is then your blessedness? For I bear you witness, that, if it could be done, you would have plucked out your own eyes, and would have given them to me.

drb@Galatians:4:31 @So then, brethren, we are not the children of the bondwoman, but of the free: by the freedom wherewith Christ has made us free.

drb@Galatians:5:11 @And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? Then is the scandal of the cross made void.

drb@Galatians:5:17 @For the flesh lusteth against the spirit: and the spirit against the flesh; for these are contrary one to another: so that you do not the things that you would.

drb@Galatians:5:20 @Idolatry, witchcrafts, enmities, contentions, emulations, wraths, quarrels, dissensions, sects,

drb@Galatians:5:21 @Envies, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like. Of the which I foretell you, as I have foretold to you, that they who do such things shall not obtain the kingdom of God.

drb@Galatians:6:9 @And in doing good, let us not fail. For in due time we shall reap, not failing.

drb@Ephesians:1:5 @Who hath predestinated us unto the adoption of children through Jesus Christ unto himself: according to the purpose of his will:

drb@Ephesians:1:8 @Which hath superabounded in us in all wisdom and prudence,

drb@Ephesians:1:17 @That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and of revelation, in the knowledge of him:

drb@Ephesians:1:21 @Above all principality, and power, and virtue, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come.

drb@Ephesians:2:14 @For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and breaking down the middle wall of partition, the enmities in his flesh:

drb@Ephesians:2:19 @Now therefore you are no more strangers and foreigners; but you are fellow citizens with the saints, and the domestics of God,

drb@Ephesians:3:10 @That the manifold wisdom of God may be made known to the principalities and powers in heavenly places through the church,

drb@Ephesians:3:20 @Now to him who is able to do all things more abundantly than we desire or understand, according to the power that worketh in us;

drb@Ephesians:4:11 @And he gave some apostles, and some prophets, and other some evangelists, and other some pastors and doctors,

drb@Ephesians:4:14 @That henceforth we be no more children tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine by the wickedness of men, by cunning craftiness, by which they lie in wait to deceive

drb@Ephesians:4:15 @But doing the truth in charity, we may in all things grow up in him who is the head, even Christ:

drb@Ephesians:4:26 @Be angry, and sin not. Let not the sun go down upon your anger.

drb@Ephesians:5:2 @And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath delivered himself for us, an oblation and a sacrifice to God for an odour of sweetness.

drb@Ephesians:5:5 @For know you this and understand, that no fornicator, or unclean, or covetous person (which is a serving of idols), hath inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.

drb@Ephesians:5:12 @For the things that are done by them in secret, it is a shame even to speak of

drb@Ephesians:5:29 @For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the church:

drb@Ephesians:6:6 @Not serving to the eye, as it were pleasing men, but, as the servants of Christ doing the will of God from the heart,

drb@Ephesians:6:8 @Knowing that whatsoever good thing any man shall do, the same shall he receive from the Lord, whether he be bond, or free.

drb@Ephesians:6:9 @And you, masters, do the same things to them, forbearing threatenings, knowing that the Lord both of them and you is in heaven; and there is no respect of persons with him.

drb@Ephesians:6:20 @For which I am an ambassador in a chain, so that therein I may be bold to speak according as I ought.

drb@Ephesians:6:21 @But that you also may know the things that concern me, and what I am doing, Tychicus, my dearest brother and faithful minister in the Lord, will make known to you all things:

drb@Philippians:2:3 @Let nothing be done through contention, neither by vain glory: but in humility, let each esteem others better than themselves:

drb@Philippians:2:14 @And do ye all things without murmurings and hesitations;

drb@Philippians:2:18 @And for the selfsame thing do you also rejoice, and congratulate with me.

drb@Philippians:3:2 @Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.

drb@Philippians:3:13 @Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended. But one thing I do: forgetting the things that are behind, and stretching forth myself to those that are before,

drb@Philippians:4:9 @The things which you have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, these do ye, and the God of peace shall be with you.

drb@Philippians:4:13 @I can do all these things in him who strengtheneth me.

drb@Philippians:4:14 @Nevertheless you have done well in communicating to my tribulation.

drb@Philippians:4:15 @And you also know, O Philippians, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but you only:

drb@Philippians:4:18 @But I have all, and abound: I am filled, having received from Epaphroditus the things you sent, an odour of sweetness, an acceptable sacrifice, pleasing to God.

drb@Colossians:1:6 @Which is come unto you, as also it is in the whole world, and bringeth forth fruit and groweth, even as it doth in you, since the day you heard and knew the grace of God in truth.

drb@Colossians:1:9 @Therefore we also, from the day that we heard it, cease not to pray for you, and to beg that you may be filled with the knowledge of his will, in all wisdom, and spiritual understanding:

drb@Colossians:1:13 @Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of the Son of his love,

drb@Colossians:1:16 @For in him were all things created in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, or dominations, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him and in him.

drb@Colossians:1:28 @Whom we preach, admonishing every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.

drb@Colossians:2:3 @In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

drb@Colossians:2:17 @Which are a shadow of things to come, but the body is of Christ.

drb@Colossians:2:20 @If then you be dead with Christ from the elements of this world, why do you yet decree as though living in the world?

drb@Colossians:2:22 @Which all are unto destruction by the very use, according to the precepts and doctrines of men.

drb@Colossians:2:23 @Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in superstition and humility, and not sparing the body; not in any honour to the filling of the flesh.

drb@Colossians:3:5 @Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, lust, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is the service of idols.

drb@Colossians:3:13 @Bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if any have a complaint against another: even as the Lord hath forgiven you, so do you also.

drb@Colossians:3:16 @Let the word of Christ dwell in you abundantly, in all wisdom: teaching and admonishing one another in psalms, hymns, and spiritual canticles, singing in grace in your hearts to God.

drb@Colossians:3:17 @All whatsoever you do in word or in work, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.

drb@Colossians:3:23 @Whatsoever you do, do it from the heart, as to the Lord, and not to men:

drb@Colossians:3:25 @For he that doth wrong, shall receive for that which he hath done wrongfully: and there is no respect of persons with God.

drb@Colossians:4:1 @Masters, do to your servants that which is just and equal: knowing that you also have a master in heaven.

drb@Colossians:4:3 @Praying withal for us also, that God may open unto us a door of speech to speak the mystery of Christ (for which also I am bound;)

drb@Colossians:4:5 @Walk with wisdom towards them that are without, redeeming the time.

drb@Colossians:4:9 @With Onesimus, a most beloved and faithful brother, who is one of you. All things that are done here, they shall make known to you.

drb@Colossians:4:11 @And Jesus, that is called Justus: who are of the circumcision: these only are my helpers in the kingdom of God; who have been a comfort to me.

drb@1Thessalonians:1:7 @So that you were made a pattern to all that believe in Macedonia and in Achaia.

drb@1Thessalonians:1:8 @For from you was spread abroad the word of the Lord, not only in Macedonia, and in Achaia, but also in every place, your faith which is towards God, is gone forth, so that we need not to speak any thing.

drb@1Thessalonians:1:9 @For they themselves relate of us, what manner of entering in we had unto you; and how you turned to God from idols, to serve the living and true God.

drb@1Thessalonians:2:10 @As you know in what manner, entreating and comforting you, (as a father doth his children,)

drb@1Thessalonians:2:11 @We testified to every one of you, that you would walk worthy of God, who hath called you unto his kingdom and glory.

drb@1Thessalonians:3:12 @And may the Lord multiply you, and make you abound in charity towards one another, and towards all men: as we do also towards you,

drb@1Thessalonians:4:10 @For indeed you do it towards all the brethren in all Macedonia

drb@1Thessalonians:4:11 @And that you use your endeavour to be quiet, and that you do your own business, and work with your own hands, as we commanded you: and that you walk honestly towards them that are without; and that you want nothing of any man's.

drb@1Thessalonians:4:15 @For the Lord himself shall come down from heaven with commandment, and with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God: and the dead who are in Christ, shall rise first.

drb@1Thessalonians:5:5 @For all you are the children of light, and children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. 6 Therefore, let us not sleep, as others do; but let us watch, and be sober.

drb@1Thessalonians:5:10 @For which cause comfort one another; and edify one another, as you also do.

drb@1Thessalonians:5:23 @He is faithful who hath called you, who also will do it.

drb@2Thessalonians:1:5 @For an example of the just judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which also you suffer.

drb@2Thessalonians:2:7 @For the mystery of iniquity already worketh; only that he who now holdeth, do hold, until he be taken out of the way.

drb@2Thessalonians:3:4 @And we have confidence concerning you in the Lord, that the things which we command, you both do, and will do.

drb@2Thessalonians:3:13 @But you, brethren, be not weary in well doing.

drb@2Thessalonians:3:14 @And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed:

drb@2Thessalonians:3:15 @Yet do not esteem him as an enemy, but admonish him as a brother.

drb@1Timothy:1:3 @As I desired thee to remain at Ephesus when I went into Macedonia, that thou mightest charge some not to teach otherwise,

drb@1Timothy:1:10 @For fornicators, for them who defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and whatever other thing is contrary to sound doctrine,

drb@1Timothy:2:7 @Whereunto I am appointed a preacher and an apostle, (I say the truth, I lie not,) a doctor of the Gentiles in faith and truth.

drb@1Timothy:2:9 @In like manner women also in decent apparel: adorning themselves with modesty and sobriety, not with plaited hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly attire,

drb@1Timothy:3:8 @Deacons in like manner chaste, not double tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy of filthy lucre:

drb@1Timothy:4:1 @Now the Spirit manifestly saith, that in the last times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to spirits of error, and doctrines of devils,

drb@1Timothy:4:6 @These things proposing to the brethren, thou shalt be a good minister of Christ Jesus, nourished up in the words of faith, and of the good doctrine which thou hast attained unto.

drb@1Timothy:4:13 @Till I come, attend unto reading, to exhortation, and to doctrine.

drb@1Timothy:4:16 @Take heed to thyself and to doctrine: be earnest in them. For in doing this thou shalt both save thyself and them that hear thee.

drb@1Timothy:5:3 @Honour widows, that are widows indeed.

drb@1Timothy:5:4 @But if any widow have children, or grandchildren, let her learn first to govern her own house, and to make a return of duty to her parents: for this is acceptable before God.

drb@1Timothy:5:5 @But she that is a widow indeed, and desolate, let her trust in God, and continue in supplications and prayers night and day.

drb@1Timothy:5:9 @Let a widow be chosen of no less than threescore years of age, who hath been the wife of one husband.

drb@1Timothy:5:11 @But the younger widows avoid. For when they have grown wanton in Christ, they will marry:

drb@1Timothy:5:16 @If any of the faithful have widows, let him minister to them, and let not the church be charged: that there may be sufficient for them that are widows indeed.

drb@1Timothy:5:17 @Let the priests that rule well, be esteemed worthy of double honour: especially they who labour in the word and doctrine:

drb@1Timothy:5:21 @I charge thee before God, and Christ Jesus, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without prejudice, doing nothing by declining to either side.

drb@1Timothy:5:23 @Do not still drink water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake, and thy frequent infirmities.

drb@1Timothy:6:1 @Whosoever are servants under the yoke, let them count their masters worthy of all honour; lest the name of the Lord and his doctrine be blasphemed.

drb@1Timothy:6:3 @If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to the sound words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to that doctrine which is according to godliness,

drb@1Timothy:6:18 @To do good, to be rich in good works, to give easily, to communicate to others,

drb@2Timothy:2:9 @Wherein I labour even unto bands, as an evildoer; but the word of God is not bound.

drb@2Timothy:3:10 @But thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, longsuffering, love, patience,

drb@2Timothy:4:1 @I charge thee, before God and Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead, by his coming, and his kingdom:

drb@2Timothy:4:2 @Preach the word: be instant in season, out of season: reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine.

drb@2Timothy:4:3 @For there shall be a time, when they will not endure sound doctrine; but, according to their own desires, they will heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears:

drb@2Timothy:4:5 @But be thou vigilant, labour in all things, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil thy ministry. Be sober.

drb@2Timothy:4:14 @Alexander the coppersmith hath done me much evil: the Lord will reward him according to his works:

drb@2Timothy:4:15 @Whom do thou also avoid, for he hath greatly withstood our words.

drb@2Timothy:4:18 @The Lord hath delivered me from every evil work: and will preserve me unto his heavenly kingdom, to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.

drb@Titus:1:9 @Embracing that faithful word which is according to doctrine, that he may be able to exhort in sound doctrine, and to convince the gainsayers.

drb@Titus:2:1 @But speak thou the things that become sound doctrine:

drb@Titus:2:7 @In all things shew thyself an example of good works, in doctrine, in integrity, in gravity,

drb@Titus:2:10 @Not defrauding, but in all things shewing good fidelity, that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things:

drb@Titus:3:5 @Not by the works of justice, which we have done, but according to his mercy, he saved us, by the laver of regeneration, and renovation of the Holy Ghost;

drb@Philemon:1:12 @Whom I have sent back to thee. And do thou receive him as my own bowels.

drb@Philemon:1:14 @But without thy counsel I would do nothing: that thy good deed might not be as it were of necessity, but voluntary.

drb@Philemon:1:21 @Trusting in thy obedience, I have written to thee: knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.

drb@Hebrews:1:6 @And again, when he bringeth in the first begotten into the world, he saith: And let all the angels of God adore him.

drb@Hebrews:1:8 @But to the Son: Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of justice is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

drb@Hebrews:2:16 @For no where doth he take hold of the angels: but of the seed of Abraham he taketh hold.

drb@Hebrews:5:4 @Neither doth any man take the honour to himself, but he that is called by God, as Aaron was.

drb@Hebrews:6:2 @Of the doctrine of baptisms, and imposition of hands, and of the resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.

drb@Hebrews:6:3 @And this will we do, if God permit.

drb@Hebrews:6:10 @For God is not unjust, that he should forget your work, and the love which you have shewn in his name, you who have ministered, and do minister to the saints.

drb@Hebrews:8:5 @Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things. As it was answered to Moses, when he was to finish the tabernacle: See (saith he) that thou make all things according to the pattern which was shewn thee on the mount.

drb@Hebrews:9:5 @And over it were the cherubims of glory overshadowing the propitiatory: of which it is not needful to speak now particularly.

drb@Hebrews:10:1 @For the law having a shadow of the good things to come, not the very image of the things; by the selfsame sacrifices which they offer continually every year, can never make the comers thereunto perfect:

drb@Hebrews:10:7 @Then said I: Behold I come: in the head of the book it is written of me: that I should do thy will, O God.

drb@Hebrews:10:9 @Then said I: Behold, I come to do thy will, O God: he taketh away the first, that he may establish that which followeth

drb@Hebrews:10:15 @And the Holy Ghost also doth testify this to us. For after that he said:

drb@Hebrews:10:29 @How much more, do you think he deserveth worse punishments, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath esteemed the blood of the testament unclean, by which he was sanctified, and hath offered an affront to the Spirit of grace?

drb@Hebrews:10:35 @Do not therefore lose your confidence, which hath a great reward.

drb@Hebrews:10:36 @For patience is necessary for you; that, doing the will of God, you may receive the promise.

drb@Hebrews:11:14 @For they that say these things, do signify that they seek a country. 15 And truly if they had been mindful of that from whence they came out, they had doubtless time to return.

drb@Hebrews:11:20 @By faith Jacob dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph, and adored the top of his rod.

drb@Hebrews:11:29 @By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, by the going round them seven days.

drb@Hebrews:11:32 @Who by faith conquered kingdoms, wrought justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,

drb@Hebrews:12:7 @Persevere under discipline. God dealeth with you as with his sons; for what son is there, whom the father doth not correct?

drb@Hebrews:12:12 @Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees,

drb@Hebrews:12:15 @Looking diligently, lest any man be wanting to the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up do hinder, and by it many be defiled.

drb@Hebrews:12:28 @Therefore receiving an immoveable kingdom, we have grace; whereby let us serve, pleasing God, with fear and reverence.

drb@Hebrews:13:2 @And hospitality do not forget; for by this some, being not aware of it, have entertained angels.

drb@Hebrews:13:6 @So that we may confidently say: The Lord is my helper: I will not fear what man shall do to me.

drb@Hebrews:13:9 @Be not led away with various and strange doctrines. For it is best that the heart be established with grace, not with meats; which have not profited those that walk in them.

drb@Hebrews:13:16 @And do not forget to do good, and to impart; for by such sacrifices God's favour is obtained.

drb@Hebrews:13:17 @Obey your prelates, and be subject to them. For they watch as being to render an account of your souls; that they may do this with joy, and not with grief. For this is not expedient for you.

drb@Hebrews:13:19 @And I beseech you the more to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

drb@Hebrews:13:21 @Fit you in all goodness, that you may do his will; doing in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen.

drb@James:1:5 @But if any of you want wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men abundantly, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

drb@James:1:8 @A double minded man is inconstant in all his ways.

drb@James:1:16 @Do not err, therefore, my dearest brethren.

drb@James:1:17 @Every best gift, and every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no change, nor shadow of alteration.

drb@James:1:22 @But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.

drb@James:1:23 @For if a man be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he shall be compared to a man beholding his own countenance in a glass.

drb@James:1:25 @But he that hath looked into the perfect law of liberty, and hath continued therein, not becoming a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work; this man shall be blessed in his deed.

drb@James:1:27 @Religion clean and undefiled before God and the Father, is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their tribulation: and to keep one's self unspotted from this world.

drb@James:2:4 @Do you not judge within yourselves, and are become judges of unjust thoughts?

drb@James:2:5 @Hearken, my dearest brethren: hath not God chosen the poor in this world, rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which God hath promised to them that love him?

drb@James:2:6 @But you have dishonoured the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you by might? and do not they draw you before the judgment seats?

drb@James:2:7 @Do not they blaspheme the good name that is invoked upon you?

drb@James:2:8 @If then you fulfil the royal law, according to the scriptures, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself; you do well.

drb@James:2:11 @For he that said, Thou shalt not commit adultery, said also, Thou shalt not kill. Now if thou do not commit adultery, but shalt kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

drb@James:2:12 @So speak ye, and so do, as being to be judged by the law of liberty.

drb@James:2:13 @For judgment without mercy to him that hath not done mercy. And mercy exalteth itself above judgment.

drb@James:2:19 @Thou believest that there is one God. Thou dost well: the devils also believe and tremble.

drb@James:2:24 @Do you see that by works a man is justified; and not by faith only?

drb@James:3:11 @Doth a fountain send forth, out of the same hole, sweet and bitter water?

drb@James:3:13 @Who is a wise man, and endued with knowledge among you? Let him shew, by a good conversation, his work in the meekness of wisdom.

drb@James:3:15 @For this is not wisdom, descending from above: but earthly, sensual, devilish.

drb@James:3:17 @But the wisdom, that is from above, first indeed is chaste, then peaceable, modest, easy to be persuaded, consenting to the good, full of mercy and good fruits, without judging, without dissimulation.

drb@James:4:5 @Or do you think that the scripture saith in vain: To envy doth the spirit covet which dwelleth in you?

drb@James:4:8 @Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners: and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

drb@James:4:11 @Detract not one another, my brethren. He that detracteth his brother, or he that judgeth his brother, detracteth the law, and judgeth the law. But if thou judge the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.

drb@James:4:15 @For what is your life? It is a vapour which appeareth for a little while, and afterwards shall vanish away. For that you should say: If the Lord will, and if we shall live, we will do this or that.

drb@James:4:17 @To him therefore who knoweth to do good, and doth it not, to him it is sin.

drb@James:5:4 @Behold the hire of the labourers, who have reaped down your fields, which by fraud has been kept back by you, crieth: and the cry of them hath entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.

drb@James:5:9 @Grudge not, brethren, one against another, that you may not be judged. Behold the judge standeth before the door.

drb@1Peter:1:1 @Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers dispersed through Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, elect,

drb@1Peter:1:12 @To whom it was revealed, that not to themselves, but to you they ministered those things which are now declared to you by them that have preached the gospel to you, the Holy Ghost being sent down from heaven, on whom the angels desire to look.

drb@1Peter:2:8 @And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of scandal, to them who stumble at the word, neither do believe, whereunto also they are set.

drb@1Peter:2:12 @Having your conversation good among the Gentiles: that whereas they speak against you as evildoers, they may, by the good works, which they shall behold in you, glorify God in the day of visitation.

drb@1Peter:2:14 @Or to governors as sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of the good:

drb@1Peter:2:15 @For so is the will of God, that by doing well you may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:

drb@1Peter:2:20 @For what glory is it, if committing sin, and being buffeted for it, you endure? But if doing well you suffer patiently; this is thankworthy before God.

drb@1Peter:3:3 @Whose adorning let it not be the outward plaiting of the hair, or the wearing of gold, or the putting on of apparel:

drb@1Peter:3:5 @For after this manner heretofore the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:

drb@1Peter:3:6 @As Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters you are, doing well, and not fearing any disturbance.

drb@1Peter:3:11 @Let him decline from evil, and do good: let him seek after peace and pursue it:

drb@1Peter:3:12 @Because the eyes of the Lord are upon the just, and his ears unto their prayers: but the countenance of the Lord upon them that do evil things.

drb@1Peter:3:17 @For it is better doing well (if such be the will of God) to suffer, than doing ill.

drb@1Peter:3:22 @Who is on the right hand of God, swallowing down death, that we might be made heirs of life everlasting: being gone into heaven, the angels and powers and virtues being made subject to him.

drb@1Peter:4:3 @For the time past is sufficient to have fulfilled the will of the Gentiles, for them who have walked in riotousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banquetings, and unlawful worshipping of idols.

drb@1Peter:4:11 @If any man speak, let him speak, as the words of God. If any man minister, let him do it, as of the power, which God administereth: that in all things God may be honoured through Jesus Christ: to whom is glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen.

drb@1Peter:5:5 @In like manner, ye young men, be subject to the ancients. And do you all insinuate humility one to another, for God resisteth the proud, but to the humble he giveth grace.

drb@1Peter:5:13 @The church that is in Babylon, elected together with you, saluteth you: and so doth my son Mark.

drb@2Peter:1:10 @Wherefore, brethren, labour the more, that by good works you may make sure your calling and election. For doing these things, you shall not sin at any time.

drb@2Peter:1:11 @For so an entrance shall be ministered to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

drb@2Peter:1:17 @For he received from God the Father, honour and glory: this voice coming down to him from the excellent glory: This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

drb@2Peter:1:19 @And we have the more firm prophetical word: whereunto you do well to attend, as to a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

drb@2Peter:2:4 @For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but delivered them, drawn down by infernal ropes to the lower hell, unto torments, to be reserved unto judgment:

drb@2Peter:2:6 @And reducing the cities of the Sodomites, and of the Gomorrhites, into ashes, condemned them to be overthrown, making them an example to those that should after act wickedly.

drb@2Peter:2:22 @For, that of the true proverb has happened to them: The dog is returned to his vomit: and, The sow that was washed, to her wallowing in the mire.

drb@2Peter:3:15 @And account the longsuffering of our Lord, salvation; as also our most dear brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, hath written to you:

drb@2Peter:3:16 @As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are certain things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, to their own destruction.

drb@1John:1:2 @For the life was manifested; and we have seen and do bear witness, and declare unto you the life eternal, which was with the Father, and hath appeared to us:

drb@1John:1:6 @If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth.

drb@1John:2:17 @And the world passeth away, and the concupiscence thereof: but he that doth the will of God, abideth for ever.

drb@1John:2:19 @They went out from us, but they were not of us. For if they had been of us, they would no doubt have remained with us; but that they may be manifest, that they are not all of us.

drb@1John:3:7 @Little children, let no man deceive you. He that doth justice is just, even as he is just.

drb@1John:3:16 @In this we have known the charity of God, because he hath laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

drb@1John:3:17 @He that hath the substance of this world, and shall see his brother in need, and shall shut up his bowels from him: how doth the charity of God abide in him?

drb@1John:3:21 @Dearly beloved, if our heart do not reprehend us, we have confidence towards God:

drb@1John:3:22 @And whatsoever we shall ask, we shall receive of him: because we keep his commandments, and do those things which are pleasing in his sight.

drb@1John:4:14 @And we have seen, and do testify, that the Father hath sent his Son to be the Saviour of the world.

drb@1John:5:21 @Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

drb@2John:1:9 @Whosoever revolteth, and continueth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that continueth in the doctrine, the same hath both the Father and the Son.

drb@2John:1:10 @If any man come to you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into the house nor say to him, God speed you.

drb@3John:1:2 @Dearly beloved, concerning all things I make it my prayer that thou mayest proceed prosperously, and fare well as thy soul doth prosperously.

drb@3John:1:5 @Dearly beloved, thou dost faithfully whatever thou dost for the brethren, and that for strangers,

drb@3John:1:6 @Who have given testimony to thy charity in the sight of the church: whom thou shalt do well to bring forward on their way in a manner worthy of God.

drb@3John:1:9 @I had written perhaps to the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the pre-eminence among them, doth not receive us.

drb@3John:1:10 @For this cause, if I come, I will advertise his works which he doth, with malicious words prating against us. And as if these things were not enough for him, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and them that do receive them he forbiddeth, and casteth out of the church.

drb@3John:1:11 @Dearly beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doth good, is of God: he that doth evil, hath not seen God.

drb@Jude:1:7 @As Sodom and Gomorrha, and the neighbouring cities, in like manner, having given themselves to fornication, and going after other flesh, were made an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire.

drb@B738:30 @And if after this one party or the other shall have a mind to add to these articles, or take away anything, they may do it at their pleasure: and whatsoever they shall add, or take away, shall be ratified.

drb@B738:31 @Moreover concerning the evils that Demetrius the king hath done against them, we have written to him, saying: Why hast thou made thy yoke heavy upon our friends, and allies, the Jews?

drb@B738:32 @If therefore they come again to us complaining of thee, we will do them justice, and will make war against thee by sea and land.

drb@B739:7 @And Judas saw that his army slipped away, and the battle pressed upon him, and his heart was cast down: because he had not time to gather them together, and he was discouraged.

drb@B739:10 @Then Judas said: God forbid we should do this thing, and flee away from them: but if our time be come, let us die manfully for our brethren, and let us not stain our glory.

drb@B739:54 @Now in the year one hundred and fifty-three, the second month, Alcimus commanded the walls of the inner court of the sanctuary to be thrown down, and the works of the prophets to be destroyed: and he began to be destroyed: and he began to destroy.

drb@B739:70 @And Jonathan had knowledge of it, and he sent ambassadors to him to make peace with him, and to restore to him the prisoners.

drb@B739:71 @And he accepted it willingly, and did according to his words, and swore that the would do him no harm all the days of his life.

drb@B7310:5 @For he will remember all the evils that we have done against him, and against his brother, and against his nation.

drb@B7310:15 @And king Alexander heard of the promises that Demetrius had made Jonathan: and they told him of the battles, and the worthy acts that he, and his brethren had done, and the labours that they had endured.

drb@B7310:23 @What is this that we have done, that Alexander hath prevented us to gain the friendship of the Jews to strengthen himself?

drb@B7310:27 @Wherefore now continue still to keep fidelity towards us, and we will reward you with good things, for what you have done in our behalf.

drb@B7310:33 @And every soul of the Jews that hath been carried captive from the land of Juda in all my kingdom, I set at liberty freely, that all be discharged from tributes even of their cattle.

drb@B7310:34 @And I will that all the feasts, and the sabbaths, and the new moons, and the days appointed, and three days before the solemn day, and three days after the solemn day, be all days of immunity and freedom, for all the Jews that are in my kingdom:

drb@B7310:35 @And no man shall have power to do any thing against them, or to molest any of them, in any cause.

drb@B7310:37 @And some of them shall be set over the affairs of the kingdom, that are of trust, and let the governors be taken from among themselves, and let them walk in their own laws, as the king hath commanded in the land of Juda.

drb@B7310:43 @And whosoever shall flee into the temple that is in Jerusalem, and in all the borders thereof, being indebted to the king for any matter, let them be set at liberty, and all that they have in my kingdom, let them have it free.

drb@B7310:46 @Now when Jonathan, and the people heard these words, they gave no credit to them nor received them: because they remembered the great evil that he had done in Israel, for he had afflicted them exceedingly.

drb@B7310:50 @And the battle was hard fought till the sun went down: and Demetrius was slain that day.

drb@B7310:51 @And Alexander sent ambassadors to Ptolemee king of Egypt, with words to this effect, saying:

drb@B7310:52 @Forasmuch as I am returned into my kingdom, and am set in the throne of my ancestors and have gotten the dominion, and have overthrown Demetrius, and possessed our country,

drb@B7310:53 @And have joined battle with him, and both he and his army have been destroyed by us, and we are placed in the throne of his kingdom:

drb@B7310:55 @And king Ptolemee answered, saying: Happy is the day wherein thou didst return to the land of thy fathers, and sattest in the throne of their kingdom.

drb@B7310:56 @And now I will do to thee as thou hast written: but meet me at Ptolemais, that we may see one another, and I may give her to thee as thou hast said.

drb@B7310:65 @And the king magnified him, and enrolled him amongst his chief friends, and made him governor and partaker of his dominion.

drb@B7310:71 @Now therefore if thou trustest in thy forces, come down to us into the plain, and there let us try one another: for with me is the strength of war.

drb@B7310:83 @And they that were scattered about the plain, fled into Azotus, and went into Bethdagon their idol's temple, there to save themselves.

drb@B7311:1 @And the king of Egypt gathered together an army, like the sand that lieth upon the sea shore, and many ships: and he sought to get the kingdom of Alexander by deceit, and join it to his own kingdom.

drb@B7311:5 @And they told the king that Jonathan had done these things, to make him odious: but the king held his peace.

drb@B7311:8 @And king Ptolemee got the dominion of the cities by the sea side, even to Seleucia, and he devised evil designs against Alexander.

drb@B7311:9 @And he sent ambassadors to Demetrius, saying: Come, let us make a league between us, and I will give thee my daughter whom Alexander hath, and thou shalt reign in the kingdom of thy father.

drb@B7311:11 @And he slandered him, because he coveted his kingdom

drb@B7311:26 @And the king treated him as his predecessor had done before: and he exalted him in the sight of all his friends.

drb@B7311:33 @We have determined to do good to the nation of the Jews who are our friends, and keep the things that are just with us, for their good will which they bear towards us.

drb@B7311:40 @And he pressed him much to deliver him to him, that he might be king in his father's place: and he told him all that Demetrius had done, and how his soldiers hated him. And he remained there many days.

drb@B7311:42 @And Demetrius sent to Jonathan, saying: I will not only do this for thee, and for thy people, but I will greatly honour thee, and thy nation, when opportunity shall serve.

drb@B7311:43 @Now therefore thou shalt do well if thou send me men to help me: for all my army is gone from me.

drb@B7311:51 @And they threw down their arms, and made peace, and the Jews were glorified in the sight of the king, and in the sight of all that were in his realm, and were renowned throughout the kingdom, and returned to Jerusalem with many spoils.

drb@B7311:52 @So king Demetrius sat in the throne of his kingdom: and the land was quiet before him.

drb@B7311:63 @And Jonathan heard that the generals of Demetrius were come treacherously to Cades, which is in Galilee, with a great army, purposing to remove him from the affairs of the kingdom:

drb@B7312:7 @There were letters sent long ago to Onias the high priest from Arius who reigned then among you, to signify that you are our brethren, as the copy here underwritten doth specify.

drb@B7312:8 @And Onias received the ambassador with honour: and received the letters wherein there was mention made of the alliance, and amity.

drb@B7312:18 @And now you shall do well to give us an answer hereto.

drb@B7312:22 @And now since this is come to our knowledge, you do well to write to us of your prosperity.

drb@B7312:37 @And they came together to build up the city: for the wall that was upon the brook towards the east was broken down, and he repaired that which is called Caphetetha:

drb@B7313:9 @Fight thou our battles, and we will do whatsoever thou shalt say to us.

drb@B7313:20 @And after this Tryphon entered within the country, to destroy it: and they went about by the way that leadeth to Ador: and Simon and his army marched to every place whithersoever they went.

drb@B7313:47 @And Simon being moved, did not destroy them: but yet he cast them out of the city, and cleansed the houses wherein there had been idols, and then he entered into it with hymns, blessing the Lord.

drb@B7314:7 @And he gathered together a great number of captives, and had the dominion of Gazara, and of Bethsura, and of the castle: and took away all uncleanness out of it and there was none that resisted him.

drb@B7314:21 @The ambassadors that were sent to our people, have told us of your glory, and honour, and joy: and we rejoice at their coming.

drb@B7314:22 @And we registered what was said by them in the councils of the people in this manner: Numenius the son of Antiochus, and Antipater the son of Jason, ambassadors of the Jews, came to us to renew the former friendship with us.

drb@B7314:31 @And their enemies desired to tread down and destroy their country, and to stretch forth their hands against their holy places.

drb@B7314:35 @And the people seeing the acts of Simon, and to what glory he meant to bring his nation, made him their prince, and high 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 advance his people.

drb@B7314:40 @For he had heard that the Romans had called the Jews their friends, and confederates, and brethren, and that they had received Simon's ambassadors with honour:

drb@B7314:45 @And whosoever shall do otherwise, or shall make void any of these things shall be punished.

drb@B7314:46 @And it pleased all the people to establish Simon, and to do according to these words.

drb@B7315:3 @Forasmuch as certain pestilent men have usurped the kingdom of our fathers, and my purpose is to challenge the kingdom, and to restore it to its former estate: and I have chosen a great army, and have built ships of war.

drb@B7315:9 @And when we shall have recovered our kingdom, we will glorify thee, and thy nation, and the temple with great glory, so that your glory shall be made manifest in all the earth.

drb@B7315:11 @And king Antiochus pursued after him, and he fled along by the sea coast and came to Dora.

drb@B7315:13 @And Antiochus camped above Dora with a hundred and twenty thousand men of war, and eight thousand horsemen:

drb@B7315:17 @The ambassadors of the Jews our friends came to us, to renew the former friendship and alliance, being sent from Simon the high priest, and the people of the Jews.

drb@B7315:19 @It hath seemed good therefore to us to write to the kings, and countries, that they should do them no harm, nor fight against them, their cities, or countries: and that they should give no aid to them that fight against them

drb@B7315:25 @But king Antiochus moved his camp to Dora the second time, assaulting it continually, and making engines: and shut up Tryphon, that he could not go out.

drb@B7315:28 @And he sent to him Athenobius one of his friends, to treat with him, saying: You hold Joppe, and Gazara, and the castle that is in Jerusalem, which are cities of my kingdom:

drb@B7315:29 @Their borders you have wasted, and you have made great havock in the land, and have got the dominion of many places in my kingdom.

drb@B7315:30 @Now therefore deliver up the cities that you have taken, and the tributes of the places whereof you have gotten the dominion without the borders of Judea.

drb@B7315:33 @And Simon answered him, and said to him: We have neither taken other men's land, neither do we hold that which is other men's: but the inheritance of our fathers, which was for some time unjustly possessed by our enemies.

drb@B7315:39 @And he commanded him to march with his army towards Judea: and he commanded him to build up Gedor, and to fortify the gates of the city, and to war against the people. But the king himself pursued after Tryphon.

drb@B7315:40 @And Cendebeus came to Jamnia, and began to provoke the people, and to ravage Judea, and to take the people prisoners, and to kill, and to build Gedor.

drb@B7316:1 @Then John came up from Gazara, and told Simon his father what Cendebeus had done against their people.

drb@B7316:14 @Now Simon, as he was going through the cities that were in the country of Judea, and taking care for the good ordering of them, went down to Jericho, he and Mathathias and Judas his sons, in the year one hundred and seventy-seven, the eleventh month: the same is the month Sabath.

drb@B7316:15 @And the son of Abobus received them deceitfully into a little fortress, that is called Doch which he had built: and he made them a great feast, and hid men there.

drb@B741:3 @And give you all a heart to worship him, and to do his will with a great heart, and a willing mind.

drb@B741:7 @When Demetrius reigned, in the year one hundred and sixty-nine, we Jews wrote to you, in the trouble, and violence, that came upon us in those years, after Jason withdrew himself from the holy land, and from the kingdom.

drb@B741:14 @For Antiochus, with his friends, came to the place as though he would marry her, and that he might receive great sums of money under the title of a dowry.

drb@B741:22 @And when this was done, and the time came that the sun shone out, which before was in a cloud, there was a great fire kindled, so that all wondered.

drb@B741:32 @Which being done, there -was kindled a dame from them: but it was consumed by the light that shined from the altar.

drb@B742:2 @And how he gave them the law that they should not forget the commandments of the Lord, and that they should not err in their minds, seeing the idols of gold, and silver, and the ornaments of them.

drb@B742:5 @And when Jeremias came thither he found a hollow cave: and he carried in thither the tabernacle, and the ark, and the altar of incense, and so stopped the door.

drb@B742:9 @For he treated wisdom in a magnificent manner: and like a wise man, he offered the sacrifice of the dedication, and of the finishing of the temple.

drb@B742:10 @And as Moses prayed to the Lord and fire came down from heaven, and consumed the holocaust: so Solomon also prayed, and fire came down from heaven and consumed the holocaust.

drb@B742:13 @And these same things were set down in the memoirs and commentaries of Nehemias: and how he made a library, and gathered together out of the countries, the books both of the prophets, and of David, and the epistles of the kings. and concerning the holy gifts.

drb@B742:16 @As we are then about to celebrate the purification, we have written unto you: and you shall do well, if you keep the same days.

drb@B742:17 @And we hope that God who hath delivered his people, and hath rendered to all the inheritance, and the kingdom, and the priesthood, and the sanctuary,

drb@B742:30 @For as the master builder of a new house must have care of the whole building: but he that taketh care to paint it, must seek out fit things for the adorning of it: so must it be judged for us.

drb@B743:7 @Now when Apollonius had given the king notice concerning the money that he was told of, he called for Heliodorus, who had the charge over his affairs, and sent him with commission to bring him the foresaid money.

drb@B743:8 @So Heliodorus forthwith began his journey, under a colour of visiting the cities of Celesyria and Phenicia, but in- deed to fulfil the king's purpose.

drb@B743:10 @Then the high priest told him that these were sums deposited, and provisions for the subsistence of the widows and the fatherless

drb@B743:12 @But that to deceive them who had trusted to the place and temple which is honoured throughout the whole world, for the reverence and holiness of it, was a thing which could not by any means be done.

drb@B743:14 @So on the day he had appointed, Heliodorus entered in to order this mat- tar. But there was no small terror throughout the whole city.

drb@B743:19 @And the women, girded with haircloth about their breasts, came together in the streets. And the virgins also that were shut up, came forth, some to Onias, and some to the walls, and others looked out of the windows.

drb@B743:23 @But Heliodorus executed that which he had resolved on, himself being present in the same place with his guard about the treasury.

drb@B743:24 @But the spirit of the almighty God gave a great evidence of his presence, so that all that had presumed to obey him, falling down by the power of God, were struck with fainting and dread.

drb@B743:25 @For there appeared to them a horse with a terrible rider upon him, adorned with a very rich covering: and he ran fiercely and struck Heliodorus with his fore feet, and he that sat upon him seemed to have armour of gold.

drb@B743:27 @Arid Heliodorus suddenly fell to the ground, and they took him up covered with great darkness, and having put him into a litter they carried him out.

drb@B743:31 @Then some of the friends of Heliodorus forthwith begged of Onias, that he would call upon the most High to grant him his life, who was ready to give up the ghost.

drb@B743:32 @So the high priest considering that the king might perhaps suspect that some mischief had been done to Heliodorus by the Jews, offered a sacrifice of health for the recovery of the man.

drb@B743:33 @And when the high priest was praying, the same young men in the same clothing stood by Heliodorus, and said to him: Give thanks to Onias the priest: because for his sake the Lord hath granted thee life.

drb@B743:35 @So Heliodorus after he had offered a sacrifice to God, and made great vows to him, that had granted him life, and given thanks to Onias, taking his troops with him, returned to the king.

drb@B743:37 @And when the king asked Heliodorus, who might be a fit man to be sent yet once more to Jerusalem, he said:

drb@B743:38 @If thou hast any enemy or traitor to thy kingdom, send him thither, and thou shalt receive him again scourged, if so be he escape: for there is undoubtedly in that place a certain power of God.

drb@B743:39 @For he that hath his dwelling in the heavens, is the visitor, and protector of that place, and he striketh and destroyeth them that come to do evil to it.

drb@B743:40 @And the things concerning Heliodorus, and the keeping of the treasury fell out in this manner.

drb@B744:1 @But Simon, of whom we spoke before, and of his country, spoke ill of Onias, as though he had incited Heliodorus to do these things, and had been the promoter of evils:

drb@B744:2 @And he presumed to call him a traitor to the kingdom, who provided for the city, and defended his nation, and wed zealous for the law of God.

drb@B744:7 @But after the death of Seleucus, when Antiochus, who was called the Illustrious, had taken possession of the kingdom, Jason the brother of Onias ambitiously sought the high priesthood:

drb@B744:11 @And abolishing those things, which had been decreed of special favour by the kings in behalf of the Jews, by the means of John the father of that Eupolemus, who went ambassador to Rome to make amity and alliance, he disannulled the lawful ordinances of the citizens, and brought in fashions that were perverse.

drb@B744:17 @For acting wickedly against the laws of God doth not pass unpunished: but this the time following will declare.

drb@B744:21 @Now when Apollonius the son of Mnestheus was sent into Egypt to treat with the nobles of king Philometor, and Antiochus understood that he was wholly excluded from the affairs of the kingdom, consulting his own interest, he departed thence and came to Joppe, and from thence to Jerusalem:

drb@B744:30 @When these things were in doing, it fell out that they of Tharsus and Mallos raised a sedition, because they were given for a gift to Antiochis, the king's concubine.

drb@B744:42 @And many of them were wounded, and some struck down to the ground, but all were put to flight: and as for the sacrilegious fellow himself, they slew him beside the treasury.

drb@B745:11 @Now when these things were done, the king suspected that the Jews would forsake the alliance: whereupon departing out of Egypt with a furious mind, he took the city by force of arms.

drb@B745:18 @Otherwise had they not been involved in many sins, as Heliodorus, who was sent by king Seleucus to rob treasury, so this man also, as soon as had come, had been forthwith scourged, and put back from his presumption.

drb@B746:10 @For two women were accused to have circumcised their children: whom, when they had openly led about through the city with the infants hanging at their breasts, they threw down headlong from the walls.

drb@B746:15 @Doth he also deal with us, so as to suffer our sins to come to their height, and then take vengeance on us.

drb@B746:20 @And considering in what manner he was come to ii;, patiently bearing, he determined not to do any unlawful things for the love of life.

drb@B746:22 @That by so doing he might be delivered from death: and for the sake of their old friendship with the man they did him this courtesy.

drb@B746:24 @For it doth not become our age, said he, to dissemble: whereby many young persons might think that Eleazar, at the age of fourscore and ten years, was gone over to the life of the heathens:

drb@B747:9 @But he answered in his own language, and said: I will not do it. Wherefore Ire also in the next place, received the torments of the first:

drb@B747:17 @Said: Whereas thou hast power among men, though thou art corruptible, thou dost what thou wilt: but think not that our nation is forsaken by God

drb@B747:19 @After him they brought the sixth, and he being ready to die, spoke thus: Be not deceived without cause: for we suffer these things for ourselves, having sinned against our God, and things worthy of admiration are done to us:

drb@B747:20 @But do not think that thou s escape unpunished, for that thou attempted to fight against God.

drb@B747:22 @And she bravely exhorted every o of them in her own language, being filled with wisdom: and joining a man's heart to a woman's thought,

drb@B747:31 @While she was yet speaking these words, the young man said: For whom do you stay? I will not obey the commandment of the king, but the commandment of the law, which was given us by Moses.

drb@B748:2 @And they called upon the Lord that he would look upon his people that was trodden down by all, and would have pity on the temple, that was defiled by the wicked:

drb@B748:17 @Setting before their eyes the injury they had unjustly done the holy place, and also the injury they had done to the city, which had been shamefully abused, besides their destroying the ordinances of the fathers.

drb@B748:20 @And of the battle that they had fought against the Galatians in Babylonia, how they, being in all but six thousand, when it came to the point, and Macedonians their companions were a stand, slew a hundred and twenty thousand, because of the help they had from heaven, and for this they received many favours.

drb@B748:28 @Then after the sabbath they divided the spoils to the feeble and the orphans, and the widows: and the rest they took for themselves and their servants.

drb@B748:29 @When this was done, and they had all made a common supplication, they besought the merciful Lord to be reconciled to his servants unto the end.

drb@B748:30 @Moreover they slew above twenty thousand of them that were with Timotheus and Bacchides who fought them, and they made themselves masters of the high strong holds: and they divided amongst them many spoils, giving equal portions to the feeble, the fatherless and the widows, yea and the aged also.

drb@B748:35 @Being through the help of the Lord brought down by them, of whom he had made no account, laying; aside his garment of glory, fleeing through the midland country, he came alone to Antioch, being rendered very unhappy by the destruction of his army.

drb@B749:4 @And swelling with anger he thought to revenge upon the Jews the injury done by them that had put him to flight. And therefore he commanded his chariot to be driven, without stopping in his journey, the judgment of heaven urging him forward, because he had spoken so proudly, that he would come to Jerusalem, and make it a common burying place of the Jews.

drb@B749:8 @Thus he that seemed to himself to command even the waves of the sea, being proud above the condition of man, and to weigh the heights of the mountains in a balance, now being cast down to the ground, was carried in a litter, bearing witness to the manifest power of God in himself:

drb@B749:16 @The holy temple also which before he had spoiled, he promiseth to adorn with goodly gifts, and to multiply the holy vessels, and to allow out of his revenues the charges pertaining to the sacrifices.

drb@B7410:2 @But he threw down the altars, which the heathens had set up in the streets, as also the temples of the idols.

drb@B7410:4 @And when they had done these things, they besought the Lord, lying prostrate on the ground, that they might no more fall into such evils; but if they should at any time sin, that they might be chastised by him more gently, and not be delivered up to barbarians and blasphemous men.

drb@B7410:12 @For Ptolemee that was called Macer, was determined to be strictly just to the Jews, and especially by reason of the wrong that had been done them, and to deal peaceably with them.

drb@B7410:21 @But when it was told Machabeus what was done, he assembled the rulers of the people, and accused those men that they had sold their brethren for money, having let their adversaries escape.

drb@B7410:30 @Two of whom took Machabeus between them, and covered him on every side with their arms, and kept him safe: but cast darts and fireballs against the enemy, so that they fell down, being both confounded with blindness, and filled with trouble.

drb@B7410:38 @And when this was done, they blessed the Lord with hymns and thanksgiving, who had done great things in Israel, and given them the victory.

drb@B7411:26 @Thou shalt do well therefore to send to them, and grant them peace, that our pleasure being known, they may be of good comfort, and look to their own affairs.

drb@B7411:29 @Menelaus came to us, saying that you desired to come down to your countrymen, that are with us.

drb@B7411:31 @That the Jews may use their own Bind of meats, and their own laws as be- fore, and that none of them any manner of ways be molested for things which have been done by ignorance.

drb@B7411:34 @The Romans also sent them a letter, to this effect. Quintus Memmius, and Titus Manilius, ambassadors of the Romans, to the people of the Jews, greeting.

drb@B7412:5 @But as soon as Judas heard of this cruelty done to his countrymen, he commanded the men that were with him: and after having called upon God the just judge,

drb@B7412:7 @And when he had done these things in this manner, he departed as if he would return again, and root out all the Joppites.

drb@B7412:8 @But when he understood that the men of Jamnia also designed to do in like manner to the Jews that dwelt among them,

drb@B7412:15 @But Machabeus calling upon the great Lord of the world, who without any rams or engines of war threw down the walls of Jericho in the time of Josue, fiercely assaulted the walls.

drb@B7412:19 @But Dositheus, and Sosipater, who were captains with Machabeus, slew them that were left by Timotheus in the hold, to the number of ten thousand men.

drb@B7412:22 @But when the first band of Judas came in sight, the enemies were struck with fear, by the presence of God, who seeth all things, and they were put to flight one from another, so that they were often thrown down by their own companions, and wounded with the strokes of their own swords.

drb@B7412:24 @And Timotheus himself fell into the hands of the band of Dositheus and Sosipater, and with many prayers he besought them to let him go with his life, because he had the parents and brethren of many of the Jews, who, by his death, might happen to be deceived.

drb@B7412:35 @But Dositheus, a horseman, one of Bacenor's band, a valiant man, took hold of Gorgias: and when he would have taken him alive, a certain horseman of the Thracians came upon him, and cut off his shoulder: and so Gorgias escaped to Maresa.

drb@B7412:38 @So Judas having gathered together his army, came into the city Odollam: and when the seventh day came, they purified themselves according to the custom, and kept the sabbath in the place.

drb@B7412:40 @And they found under the coats o the slain some of the donaries of the idols of Jamnia, which the law forbiddeth the Jews:

drb@B7413:5 @Now there was in that place a tower fifty cubits high, having a heap of ashes on every side: this had a prospect steep down.

drb@B7413:6 @From thence he commanded the sacrilegious wretch to be thrown down into the ashes, all men thrusting him forward unto death.

drb@B7413:11 @Which, when Judas understood, he commanded the people to call upon the Lord day and night, that as he had always done, so now also he would help them:

drb@B7413:13 @So when they had all done this together, and had craved mercy of the Lord with weeping and fasting, lying prostrate on the ground for three days continually, Judas exhorted them to make themselves ready.

drb@B7413:18 @Now this was done at the break of day, by the protection and help of the Lord.

drb@B7413:22 @But Rhodocus, one of the Jews' army, disclosed the secrets to the enemies, so he was sought out, and taken up, and put in prison.

drb@B7414:14 @Then the Gentiles who had fled out of Judea from Judas, came to Nicanor by docks, thinking the miseries and calamities of the Jews to be the welfare of their affairs.

drb@B7414:19 @Wherefore he sent Posidonius, and Theodotius, and Matthias before to pre- sent and receive the right hands.

drb@B7414:26 @But Alcimus seeing the love they had one to another, and the covenants, came to Demetrius, and told him that Nicanor assented to the foreign interest, for that he meant to make Judas, who was a traitor to the kingdom, his successor.

drb@B7414:33 @And swore, saying: Unless you de- liver Judas prisoner to me, I will lay this temple of God even with the ground, and will beat down the altar, and I will dedicate this temple to Bacchus.

drb@B7414:41 @Now as the multitude sought to rush into his house, and to break open the door, and to set fire to it, when he was ready to be taken, he struck himself with his sword:

drb@B7414:43 @But whereas through haste he missed of giving himself a sure wound, and the crowd was breaking into the doors, he ran boldly to the wall, and manfully threw himself down to the crowd:

drb@B7414:45 @And as he had yet breath in him, being inflamed in mind he arose: and while his blood ran down with a great stream, and he was grievously wounded, he ran through the crowd:

drb@B7415:2 @And when the Jews that were constrained to follow him, said: Do not act so fiercely and barbarously, but give honour to the day that is sanctified: and reverence him that beholdeth all things:

drb@B7415:5 @Then he said: And I am mighty upon the earth, and I command to take arms, and to do the king's business. Nevertheless he prevailed not to accomplish his design.

drb@B7415:37 @But to celebrate the thirteenth day of the month of Adar, called, in the Syrian language, the day before Mardochias' day.

drb@B7415:38 @So these things being done with relation to Nicanor, and from that time the city being possessed by the Hebrews, I also will here make an end of my narration.

drb@B7415:39 @Which if I have done well, and as it becometh the history, it is what I desired: but if not so perfectly, it must be pardoned me.

drb@B791:6 @And went to Jerusalem to the temple of the Lord, and there adored the Lord God of Israel, offering faithfully all his firstfruits, and his tithes,

drb@B791:14 @And he gave him leave to go whithersoever he would, with liberty to do whatever he had a mind.

drb@B792:4 @And taking it up carried it privately to his house, that after the sun was down, he might bury him cautiously.

drb@B792:7 @So when the sun was down, he went and buried him.

drb@B792:8 @Now all his neighbours blamed him, saying: Once already commandment was given for thee to be slain because of this matter, and thou didst scarce escape the sentence of death, and dost thou again bury the dead?

drb@B792:10 @Now it happened one day, that being wearied with burying, he came to his house, and cast himself down by the wall and slept,

drb@B793:5 @And now, O Lord, great are thy judgments, because we have not done according to thy precepts, and have not walked sincerely before thee:

drb@B793:6 @And now, O Lord, do with me according to thy will, and command my spirit to be received in peace: for it is better for me to die, than to live.

drb@B794:15 @If any man hath done any work for thee, immediately pay him his hire, and let not the wages of thy hired servant stay with thee at all.

drb@B794:16 @See thou never do to another what thou wouldst hate to have done to thee by another.

drb@B794:18 @Lay out thy bread, and thy wine upon the burial of a just man, and do not eat and drink thereof with the wicked.

drb@B794:23 @Fear not, my son: we lead indeed a poor life, but we shall have many good things if we fear God, and depart from all sin, and do that which is good.

drb@B795:1 @Then Tobias answered his father, and said: I will do all things, father, which thou hast commanded me.

drb@B795:17 @And Raphael the angel answered: Dost thou seek the family of him thou hirest, or the hired servant himself to go with thy son?

drb@B795:27 @For I believe that the good angel of God doth accompany him, and doth order all things well that are done about him, so that he shall return to us with joy.

drb@B796:1 @And Tobias went forward, and the dog followed him, and he lodged the first night by the river of Tigris.

drb@B796:4 @And the angel said to him: Take him by the gill, and draw him to thee. And when he had done so, he drew him out upon the land, and he began to pant before his feet.

drb@B796:6 @And when he had done so, he roasted the flesh thereof, and they took it with them in the way: the rest they salted as much as might serve them, till they came to Rages the city of the Medes.

drb@B796:15 @Now I am afraid, lest the same thing should happen to me also: and whereas I am the only child of my parents, I should bring down their old age with sorrow to hell.

drb@B797:5 @And Raguel said to them: Do you know Tobias my brother? And they said: We know him.

drb@B797:9 @And after they had spoken, Raguel commanded a sheep to be killed, and a feast to be prepared. And when he desired them to sit down to dinner,

drb@B797:13 @Then Raguel said: I doubt not but God hath regarded my prayers and tears in his sight.

drb@B797:14 @And I believe he hath therefore made you come to me, that this maid might be married to one of her own kindred, according to the law of Moses: and now doubt not but I will give her to thee.

drb@B798:9 @And now, Lord, thou knowest, that not for fleshly lust do I take my sister to wife, but only for the love of posterity, in which thy name may be blessed for ever and ever.

drb@B799:7 @And he told him concerning Tobias the son of Tobias, all that had been done: and made him come with him to the wedding.

drb@B799:9 @And said: The God of Israel bless thee, because thou art the son of a very good and just man, and that feareth God, and doth almsdeeds:

drb@B7910:1 @But as Tobias made longer stay upon occasion of the marriage, Tobias his father was solicitous, saying: Why thinkest thou doth my son tarry, or why is he detained there?

drb@B7911:7 @And Raphael said to Tobias: As soon as thou shalt come into thy house, forthwith adore the Lord thy God: and giving thanks to him, go to thy father, and kiss him.

drb@B7911:9 @Then the dog, which had been with them in the way, ran before, and coming as if he had brought the news, shewed his joy by his fawning and wagging his tail.

drb@B7911:12 @And when they had adored God, and given him thanks, they sat down together.

drb@B7911:19 @And he told his parents all the benefits of God, which he had done to him by the man that conducted him.

drb@B7911:20 @And Achior and Nabath the kinsmen of Tobias came, rejoicing for Tobias, and congratulating with him for all the good things that God had done for him.

drb@B7913:1 @And Tobias the elder opening his mouth, blessed the Lord, and said: Thou art great, O Lord, for ever, and thy kingdom is unto all ages:

drb@B7913:2 @For thou scourgest, and thou savest: thou leadest down to hell, and bringest up again: and there is none that can escape thy hand.

drb@B7913:6 @See then what he hath done with us, and with fear and trembling give ye glory to him: and extol the eternal King of worlds in your works.

drb@B7913:8 @Be converted therefore, ye sinners, and do justice before God, believing that he will shew his mercy to you.

drb@B7913:14 @Nations from afar shall come to thee: and shall bring gifts, and shall adore the Lord in thee, and shall esteem thy land as holy.

drb@B7914:8 @And the Gentiles shall leave their idols, and shall come into Jerusalem, and shall dwell in it.

drb@B7914:9 @And all the kings of the earth shall rejoice in it, adoring the King of Israel.

drb@B7914:10 @Hearken therefore, my children, to your father: serve the Lord in truth, and seek to do the things that please him:

drb@B7914:11 @And command your children that they do justice and almsdeeds, and that they be mindful of God, and bless him at all times in truth, and with all their power.

drb@B7914:12 @And now, children, hear me, and do not stay here: but as soon as you shall bury your mother by me in one sepulchre, without delay direct your steps to depart hence:

drb@B801:4 @For wisdom will not enter into a malicious soul, nor dwell in a body subject to sins.

drb@B801:6 @For the spirit of wisdom is benevolent, and will not acquit the evil speaker from his lips: for God is witness of his reins, and he is a true searcher of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue.

drb@B801:14 @For he created all things that they might be: and he made the nations of the earth for health: and there is no poison of destruction in them, nor kingdom of hell upon the earth.

drb@B802:5 @For our time is as the passing of a shadow, and there is no going back of our end: for it is fast sealed, and no man returneth.

drb@B802:8 @Let us crown ourselves with roses, before they be withered: let no meadow escape our riot.

drb@B802:10 @Let us oppress the poor just man, and not spare the widow, nor honour the ancient grey hairs of the aged.

drb@B802:12 @Let us therefore lie in wait for the just, because he is not for our turn, and he is contrary to our doings, and upbraideth us with transgressions of the law, and divulgeth against us the sins of our way of life.

drb@B803:11 @For he that rejecteth wisdom, and discipline, is unhappy: and their hope is vain, and their labours without fruit, and their works unprofitable.

drb@B803:15 @For the fruit of good labours is glorious, and the root of wisdom never faileth.

drb@B805:9 @All those things are passed away like a shadow, and like a post that runneth on,

drb@B805:17 @Therefore shall they receive a kingdom of glory, and a crown of beauty at the hand of the Lord: for with his right hand he will cover them, and with his holy arm he will defend them.

drb@B806:1 @Wisdom is better than strength, and a wise man is better than a strong man.

drb@B806:5 @Because being ministers of his kingdom, you have not judged rightly, nor kept the law of justice, nor walked according to the will of God.

drb@B806:10 @To you, therefore, O kings, are these my words, that you may learn wisdom, and not fall from it.

drb@B806:13 @Wisdom is glorious, and never fadeth away, and is easily seen by them that love her, and is found by them that seek her.

drb@B806:15 @He that awaketh early to seek her, shall not labour: for he shall find her sitting at his door.

drb@B806:21 @Therefore the desire of wisdom bringeth to the everlasting kingdom.

drb@B806:22 @If then your delight be in thrones, and sceptres, O ye kings of the people, love wisdom, that you may reign for ever.

drb@B806:23 @Love the light of wisdom, all ye that bear rule over peoples.

drb@B806:24 @Now what wisdom is, and what was her origin, I will declare: and I will not hide from you the mysteries of God, but will seek her out from the beginning of her birth, and bring the knowledge of her to light, and will not pass over the truth:

drb@B806:25 @Neither will I go with consuming envy: for such a man shall not be partaker of wisdom.

drb@B807:3 @And being born I drew in the common air, and fell upon the earth, that is made alike, and the first voice which I uttered was crying, as all others do.

drb@B807:7 @Wherefore I wished, and understanding was given me: and I called upon God, and the spirit of wisdom came upon me:

drb@B807:8 @And I preferred her before kingdoms and thrones, and esteemed riches nothing in comparison of her.

drb@B807:12 @And I rejoiced in all these: for this wisdom went before me, and I knew not that she was the mother of them all.

drb@B807:15 @And God hath given to me to speak as I would, and to conceive thoughts worthy of those things that are given me: because he is the guide of wisdom, and the director of the wise:

drb@B807:16 @For in his hand are both we, and our words, and all wisdom, and the knowledge and skill of works

drb@B807:21 @And all such things as are hid and not foreseen, I have learned: for wisdom, which is the worker of all things, taught me.

drb@B807:24 @For wisdom is more active than all active things: and reacheth everywhere by reason of her purity.

drb@B807:27 @And being but one, she can do all things: and remaining in herself the same, she reneweth all things, and through nations conveyeth herself into holy souls, she maketh the friends of God and prophets.

drb@B807:28 @For God loveth none but him that dwelleth with wisdom.

drb@B807:30 @For after this cometh night, but no evil can overcome wisdom.

drb@B808:5 @And if riches be desired in life, what is richer than wisdom, which maketh all things?

drb@B808:6 @And if sense do work: who is a more artful worker than she of those things that are?

drb@B808:8 @And if a man desire much knowledge: she knoweth things past, and judgeth of things to come: she knoweth the subtilties of speeches, and the solutions of arguments: she knoweth signs and wonders before they be done, and the events of times and ages.

drb@B808:17 @Thinking these things with myself, and pondering them in my heart, that to be allied to wisdom is immortality,

drb@B808:18 @And that there is great delight in her friendship, and inexhaustible riches in the works of her hands, and in the exercise of conference with her, wisdom, and glory in the communication of her words: I went about seeking, that I might take her to myself

drb@B808:21 @And as I knew that I could not otherwise be continent, except God gave it, and this also was a point of wisdom, to know whose gift it was: I went to the Lord, and besought him, and said with my whole heart:

drb@B809:2 @And by thy wisdom hast appointed man, that he should have dominion over the creature that was made by thee,

drb@B809:4 @Give me wisdom, that sitteth by thy throne, and cast me not off from among thy children:

drb@B809:6 @For if one be perfect among the children of men, yet if thy wisdom be not with him, he shall be nothing regarded.

drb@B809:9 @And thy wisdom with thee, which knoweth thy works, which then also was present when thou madest the world, and knew what was agreeable to thy eyes, and what was right in thy commandments.

drb@B809:15 @For the corruptible body is a load upon the soul, and the earthly habitation presseth down the mind that museth upon many things.

drb@B809:16 @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 shall search out?

drb@B809:17 @And who shall know thy thought, except thou give wisdom, and send thy Holy Spirit from above:

drb@B809:19 @For by wisdom they were healed, whosoever have pleased thee, O Lord, from the beginning.

drb@B8010:4 @For whose cause, when water destroyed the earth, wisdom healed it again, directing the course of the just by contemptible wood.

drb@B8010:6 @She delivered the just man who fled from the wicked that were perishing, when the fire came down upon Pentapolis:

drb@B8010:8 @For regarding not wisdom, they did not only slip in this, that they were ignorant of good things, but they left also unto men a memorial of their folly, so that in the things in which they sinned, they could not so much as lie hid.

drb@B8010:9 @But wisdom hath delivered from sorrow them that attend upon her

drb@B8010:10 @She conducted the just, when he fled from his brother's wrath, through the right ways, and shewed him the kingdom of God, and gave him the knowledge of the holy things, made him honourable in his labours, and accomplished his labours.

drb@B8010:12 @She kept him safe from his enemies, and she defended him from seducers, and gave him a strong conflict, that he might overcome, and know that wisdom is mightier than all.

drb@B8010:13 @She forsook not the just when he was sold, but delivered him from sinners: she went down with him into the pit.

drb@B8010:14 @And in bands she left him not, till she brought him the sceptre of the kingdom, and power against those that oppressed him: and shewed them to be liars that had accused him, and gave him everlasting glory.

drb@B8010:21 @For wisdom opened the mouth of the dumb, and made the tongues of infants eloquent.

drb@B8011:13 @For a double affliction came upon them, and a groaning for the remembrance of things past.

drb@B8011:23 @For the whole world before thee is as the least grain of the balance, and as a drop of the morning dew, that falleth down upon the earth:

drb@B8011:24 @But thou hast mercy upon all, because thou canst do all things, and overlookest the sins of men for the sake of repentance.

drb@B8012:11 @For it was a cursed seed from the beginning: neither didst thou for fear of any one give pardon to their sins.

drb@B8012:12 @For who shall say to thee: What hast thou done? or who shall withstand thy judgment? or who shall come before thee to be a revenger of wicked men? or who shall accuse thee, if the nations perish, which thou hast made?

drb@B8012:13 @For there is no other God but thou, who hast care of all, that thou shouldst shew that thou dost not give judgment unjustly

drb@B8013:8 @But then again they are not to be pardoned.

drb@B8013:11 @Or if an artist, a carpenter, hath cut down a tree proper for his use in the wood, and skilfully taken off all the bark thereof, and with his art, diligently formeth a vessel profitable for the common uses of life,

drb@B8013:13 @And taking what was left thereof, which is good for nothing, being a crooked piece of wood, and full of knots, carveth it diligently when he hath nothing else to do, and by the skill of his art fashioneth it and maketh it like the image of a man:

drb@B8013:19 @And for a good journey he petitioneth him that cannot walk: and for getting, and for working, and for the event of all things he asketh him that is unable to do any thing.

drb@B8014:5 @But that the works of thy wisdom might not be idle: therefore men also trust their lives even to a little wood, and passing over the sea by ship are saved.

drb@B8014:8 @But the idol that is made by hands, is cursed, as well it, as he that made it: he because he made it; and it because being frail it is called a god.

drb@B8014:11 @Therefore there shall be no respect had even to the idols of the Gentiles: because the creatures of God are turned to an abomination, and a temptation to the souls of men, and a snare to the feet of the unwise.

drb@B8014:12 @For the beginning of fornication is the devising of idols: and the invention of them is the corruption of life.

drb@B8014:27 @For the worship of abominable idols is the cause, and the beginning and end of all evil.

drb@B8014:29 @For whilst they trust in idols, which are without life, though they swear amiss, they look not to be hurt.

drb@B8014:30 @But for two things they shall be justly punished, because they have thought not well of God, giving heed to idols, and have sworn unjustly, in guile despising justice.

drb@B8015:4 @For the invention of mischievous men hath not deceived us, nor the shadow of a picture, a fruitless labour, a graven figure with divers colours,

drb@B8015:9 @But his care is, not that he shall labour, nor that his life is short, but he striveth with the goldsmiths and silversmiths: and he endeavoureth to do like the workers in brass, and counteth it a glory to make vain things.

drb@B8015:15 @For they have esteemed all the idols of the heathens for 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 walk.

drb@B8016:13 @For it is thou, O Lord, that hast power of life and death, and leadest down to the gates of death, and bringest back again:

drb@B8016:28 @That it might be known to all, that we ought to prevent the sun to bless thee, and adore thee at the dawning of the light.

drb@B8017:2 @For while the wicked thought to be able to have dominion over the holy nation, they themselves being fettered with the bonds of darkness, and a long night, shut up in their houses, lay there exiled from the eternal providence.

drb@B8017:4 @For neither did the den that held them, keep them from fear: for noises coming down troubled them, and sad visions appearing to them, affrighted them.

drb@B8017:7 @And the delusions of their magic art were put down, and their boasting of wisdom was reproachfully rebuked.

drb@B8017:12 @And while there is less expectation from within, the greater doth it count the ignorance of that cause which bringeth the torment.

drb@B8017:13 @But they that during that night, in which nothing could be done, and which came upon them from the lowest and deepest hell, slept the same sleep.

drb@B8017:15 @Moreover if any of them had fallen down, he was kept shut up in prison without irons.

drb@B8017:17 @For they were all bound together with one chain of darkness. Whether it were a whistling wind, or the melodious voice of birds, among the spreading branches of trees, or a fall of water running down with violence,

drb@B8017:18 @Or the mighty noise of stones tumbling down, or the running that could not be seen of beasts playing together, or the roaring voice of wild beasts, or a rebounding echo from the highest mountains: these things made them to swoon for fear.

drb@B8018:15 @Thy almighty word leapt down from heaven from thy royal throne, as a fierce conqueror into the midst of the land of destruction.

drb@B8018:23 @For when they were now fallen down dead by heaps one upon another, he stood between and stayed the assault, and cut off the way to the living.

drb@B8019:1 @But as to the wicked, even to the end there came upon them wrath without mercy. For he knew before also what they would do:

drb@B8019:7 @For a cloud overshadowed their camp, and where water was before, dry land appeared, and in the Red Sea a way without hinderance, and out of the great deep a springing field:

drb@B8019:10 @For they were yet mindful of those things which had been done in the time of their sojourning, how the ground brought forth flies instead of cattle, and how the river cast up a multitude of frogs instead of fishes

drb@B8019:16 @But they were struck with blindness: as those others were at the doors of the just man, when they were covered with sudden darkness, and every one sought the passage of his own door.

drb@B831:4 @For thou art just in all that thou hast done to us, and all thy works are true, and thy ways right, and all thy judgments true.

drb@B831:7 @And we have not hearkened to thy commandments, nor have we observed nor done as thou hadst commanded us, that it might go well with us.

drb@B831:8 @Wherefore all that thou hast brought upon us, and every thing that thou hast done to us, thou hast done in true judgment:

drb@B831:26 @But the angel of the Lord went down with Azarias and his companions into the furnace: and he drove the flame of the fire out of the furnace,

drb@B831:31 @Blessed art thou on the throne of thy kingdom, and exceedingly to be praised, and exalted above all for ever.

drb@B8610:1 @Then Mardochai said: God hath done these things.

drb@B8611:1 @In the fourth year of the reign of Ptolemy and Cleopatra, Dositheus, who said he was a priest, and of the Levitical race, and Ptolemy his son brought this epistle of Phurim, which they said Lysimachus the son of Ptolemy had interpreted in Jerusalem.

drb@B8611:2 @In the second year of the reign of Artaxerxes the great, in the first day of the month Nisan, Mardochai the son of Jair, the son of Semei, the son of Cis, of the tribe of Benjamin:

drb@B8611:4 @Now he was of the number of the captives, whom Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon had carried away from Jerusalem with Jechonias king of Juda:

drb@B8611:12 @And when Mardochai had seen this, and arose out of his bed, he was thinking what God would do: and he kept it fixed in his mind, desirous to know what the dream should signify.

drb@B8612:4 @But the king made a record of what was done: and Mardochai also committed the memory of the thing to writing.

drb@B8612:6 @But Aman the son of Amadathi the Bugite was in great honour with the king, and sought to hurt Mardochai and his people, because of the two eunuchs of the king who were put to death.

drb@B8613:2 @Whereas I reigned over many nations, and had brought all the world under my dominion, I was not willing to abuse the greatness of my power, but to govern my subjects with clemency and lenity, that they might live quietly without any terror. and might enjoy peace, which is desired by all men.

drb@B8613:7 @That these wicked men going down to hell in one day, may restore to our empire the peace which they had disturbed.

drb@B8613:8 @But Mardochai besought the Lord, remembering all his works,

drb@B8613:14 @But I feared lest I should transfer the honour of my God to a man, and lest I should adore any one except my God.

drb@B8614:5 @I have heard of my father that thou, O Lord, didst take Israel from among all nations, and our fathers from all their predecessors, to possess them as an everlasting inheritance, and thou hast done to them as thou hast promised.

drb@B8614:8 @And now they are not content to oppress us with most hard bondage, but attributing the strength of their hands to the power of their idols,

drb@B8614:10 @That they may open the mouths of Gentiles, and praise the strength of idols, and magnify for ever a carnal king.

drb@B8615:1 @And he commanded her (no doubt but he was Mardochai) to go to the king, and petition for her people, and for her country.

drb@B8615:3 @And do thou call upon the Lord, and speak to the king for us, and deliver us from death.

drb@B8615:9 @So going in she passed through all the doors in order, and stood before the king, where he sat upon his royal throne, clothed with his royal robes, and glittering with gold, and precious stones, and he was terrible to behold.

drb@B8615:10 @And when he had lifted up his countenance, and with burning eyes had shewn the wrath of his heart, the queen sunk down, and her colour turned pale, and she rested her weary head upon her handmaid.

drb@B8615:15 @And as she held her peace, he took the golden sceptre, and laid it upon her neck, and kissed her, and said: Why dost thou not speak to me?

drb@B8615:18 @And while she was speaking, she fell down again, and was almost in a swoon.

drb@B8616:5 @And they break out into so great madness, as to endeavour to undermine by lies such as observe diligently the offices committed to them, and do all things in such manner as to be worthy of all men's praise,

drb@B8616:7 @Now this is proved both from ancient histories, and by the things which are done daily, how the good designs of kings are depraved by the evil suggestions of certain men.

drb@B8616:10 @Now that you may more plainly understand what we say, I Aman the son of Amadathi, a Macedonian both in mind and country, and having nothing of the Persian blood, but with his cruelty staining our goodness, was received being a stranger by us:

drb@B8616:12 @But he was so far puffed up with arrogancy, as to go about to deprive us of our kingdom and life.

drb@B8616:13 @For with certain new and unheard of devices he hath sought the destruction of Mardochai, by whose fidelity and good services our life was saved, and of Esther the partner of our kingdom, with all their nation:

drb@B8616:14 @Thinking that after they were slain, he might work treason against us left alone without friends, and might transfer the kingdom of the Persians to the Macedonians.

drb@B8616:16 @And are the children of the highest and the greatest, and the ever living God, by whose benefit the kingdom was given both to our fathers and to us, and is kept unto this day.

drb@B8616:23 @That all they who faithfully obey the Persians, receive a worthy reward for their fidelity: but they that are traitors to their kingdom, are destroyed for their wickedness.
