drb@Joshua:1:1 @Now it came to pass after the death of Moses the servant of the Lord, that the Lord spoke to Josue the son of Nun, the minister of Moses, and said to him:

drb@Joshua:1:9 @Behold I command thee, take courage, end be strong. Fear not and be not dismayed: because the Lord thy God is with thee in all things whatsoever thou shalt go to.

drb@Joshua:1:11 @Prepare you victuals: for after the third day you shall pass over the Jordan and shall go in to possess the land, which the Lord your God will give you.

drb@Joshua:1:13 @Remember the word, which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you, saying: The Lord your God hath given you rest, and all this land.

drb@Joshua:1:15 @Until the Lord give rest to your brethren as he hath given you, and they also possess the land which the Lord your God will give them: and so you shall return into the land of your possession, and you shall dwell in it, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you beyond the Jordan, toward the rising of the sun.

drb@Joshua:1:17 @As we obeyed Moses in all things, so will we obey thee also: only be the Lord thy God with thee, as he was with Moses.

drb@Joshua:2:9 @the Lord dried up the water of the Red Sea at your going in, when you came out of Egypt: and what things you did to the two kings of the Amorrhites, that were beyond the Jordan: Sehon and Og whom you slew.

drb@Joshua:2:10 @I know that the Lord hath given this land to you: for the dread of you is fallen upon us, and all the inhabitants of the land have lost all strength.

drb@Joshua:2:12 @And hearing these things we were affrighted, and our heart fainted away, neither did there remain any spirit in us at your coming in: for the Lord your God he is God in heaven above, and in the earth beneath.

drb@Joshua:2:13 @Now therefore swear ye to me by the Lord, that as I have shewn mercy to you, so you also will shew mercy to my father's house: and give me a true token,

drb@Joshua:2:15 @They answered her: Be our lives for you unto death, only if thou betray us not. And when the Lord shall have delivered us the land, we will shew thee mercy and truth.

drb@Joshua:2:25 @And said: The Lord hath delivered all this land into our hands, and all the inhabitants thereof are overthrown with fear.

drb@Joshua:3:3 @And began to proclaim: When you shall see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, and the priests of the race of Levi carrying it, rise you up also, and follow them as they go before:

drb@Joshua:3:5 @And Josue said to the people: Be ye sanctified: for to morrow the Lord will do wonders among you.

drb@Joshua:3:7 @And the Lord said to Josue: This day will I begin to exalt thee before Israel: that they may know that as I was with Moses, so I am with thee also.

drb@Joshua:3:9 @And Josue said to the children of Israel: Come hither and hear the word of the Lord your God.

drb@Joshua:3:10 @And again he said: By this you shall know that the Lord the living God is in the midst of you, and that he shall destroy before your sight the Chanaanite and the Hethite, the Hevite and the Pherezite, the Gergesite also and the Jebusite, and the Amorrhite

drb@Joshua:3:11 @Behold the ark of the covenant of the Lord of all the earth shall go before you into the Jordan.

drb@Joshua:3:13 @And when the priests, that carry the ark of the Lord the God of the whole earth, shall set the soles of their feet in the waters of the Jordan, the waters that are beneath shall run down and go off: and those that come from above, shall stand together upon a heap.

drb@Joshua:3:17 @And the people marched over against Jericho: and the priests that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, stood girded upon the dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, and all the people passed over through the channel that was dried up.

drb@Joshua:4:1 @And when they were passed over, the Lord said to Josue:

drb@Joshua:4:5 @And he said to them: Go before the ark of the Lord your God to the midst of the Jordan, and carry from thence every man a stone on your shoulders, according to the number of the children of Israel,

drb@Joshua:4:7 @You shall answer them: The waters of the Jordan ran off before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, when it passed over the same: therefore were these atones set for a monument of the children of Israel for ever.

drb@Joshua:4:8 @The children of Israel therefore did as Josue commanded them, carrying out of the channel of the Jordan twelve stones, as the Lord had commanded him, according to the number of the children of Israel, unto the place wherein they camped, and there they set them.

drb@Joshua:4:10 @Now the priests that carried the ark, stood in the midst of the Jordan till all things were accomplished which the Lord had commanded Josue to speak to the people, and Moses had said to him

drb@Joshua:4:11 @And when they had all passed over, the ark also of the Lord passed over, and the priests went before the people.

drb@Joshua:4:14 @In that day the Lord magnified Josue in the sight of all Israel, that they should fear him, as they had feared Moses, while he lived.

drb@Joshua:4:18 @And when they that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, were come up, and began to tread on the dry ground, the waters returned into the channel, and ran as they were wont before.

drb@Joshua:4:23 @The Lord your God drying up the waters thereof in your sight, until you passed over:

drb@Joshua:4:25 @That all the people of the earth may learn the most mighty hand of the Lord, that you also may fear the Lord your God for ever.

drb@Joshua:5:1 @Now when all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwelt beyond the Jordan westward, and all the kings of Chanaan, who possessed the places near the great sea, had heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the children of Israel, till they passed over, their heart failed them, and there remained no spirit in them, fearing the coming in of the children of Israel.

drb@Joshua:5:2 @At that time the Lord said to Josue: Make thee knives of stone, and circumcise the second time the children of Israel.

drb@Joshua:5:3 @He did what the Lord had commanded, and he circumcised the children of Israel in the hill of the foreskins.

drb@Joshua:5:6 @Luring the forty years of the journey in the wide wilderness, were uncircumcised: till all they were consumed that had not heard the voice of the Lord, and to whom he had sworn before, that he would not shew them the land flowing with milk and honey.

drb@Joshua:5:9 @And the Lord said to Josue: This day have I taken away from you the reproach of Egypt. And the name of that place was called Galgal, until this present day.

drb@Joshua:5:14 @And he answered: No: but I am prince of the host of the Lord, and now I am come.

drb@Joshua:5:15 @Josue fell on his face to the ground. And worshipping, add: What saith my lord to his servant?

drb@Joshua:6:2 @And the Lord said to Josue: Behold I have given into thy hands Jericho, and the king thereof, and all the valiant men.

drb@Joshua:6:6 @Then Josue the son of Nun called the priests, and said to them: Take the ark of the covenant: and let seven other priests take the seven trumpets of the jubilee, and march before the ark of the Lord.

drb@Joshua:6:7 @And he said to the people: Go, and compass the city, armed, marching before the ark of the Lord.

drb@Joshua:6:8 @And when Josue had ended his words, and the seven priests blew the seven trumpets before the ark of the covenant of the Lord,

drb@Joshua:6:11 @So the ark of the Lord went about the city once a day, and returning into the camp, abode there.

drb@Joshua:6:12 @And Josue rising before day, the priests took the ark of the Lord,

drb@Joshua:6:13 @And seven of them seven trumpets, which are used in the jubilee: and they went before the ark of the Lord walking and sounding the trumpets: and the armed men went before them, and the rest of the common people followed the ark, and they blew the trumpets.

drb@Joshua:6:16 @And when in the seventh going about the priests sounded with the trumpets, Josue said to all Israel: Shout: for the Lord hath delivered the city to you:

drb@Joshua:6:17 @And let this city be an anathema, and all things that are in it, to the Lord. Let only Rahab the harlot live, with all that are with her in the house: for she hid the messengers whom we sent.

drb@Joshua:6:19 @But whatsoever gold or silver there shall be, or vessels of brass and iron, let it be consecrated to the Lord, laid up in his treasures.

drb@Joshua:6:24 @But they burned the city, and all things that were therein; except the gold and silver, and vessels of brass and iron, which they consecrated into the treasury of the Lord.

drb@Joshua:6:26 @Cursed be the man before the Lord, that shall raise up and build the city of Jericho. In his firstborn may he lay the foundation thereof, and in the last of his children set up its gates.

drb@Joshua:6:27 @And the Lord was with Josue, and his name was noised throughout all the land.

drb@Joshua:7:1 @But the children of Israel transgressed the commandment, and took to their own use of the anathema. For Achan the son of Charmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zare of the tribe of Juda, took something of the anathema: and the Lord was angry against the children of Israel.

drb@Joshua:7:6 @But Josue rent his garments, and fell flat on the ground before the ark of the Lord until the evening, both he and all the ancients of Israel: and they put dust upon their heads.

drb@Joshua:7:7 @And Josue said: Alas, O Lord God, why wouldst thou bring this people over the river Jordan, to deliver us into the hand of the Amorrhite, and to destroy us? would God, we had stayed beyond the Jordan as we began.

drb@Joshua:7:8 @My Lord God, what shall I say, seeing Israel turning their backs to their enemies?

drb@Joshua:7:10 @And the Lord said to Josue: Arise, why liest thou flat on the ground?

drb@Joshua:7:13 @Arise, sanctify the people, and say to them: Be ye sanctified against to morrow: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel: The anathema is in the midst of thee, O Israel: thou canst not stand before thy enemies, till he be destroyed out of thee that is defiled with this wickedness.

drb@Joshua:7:15 @And whosoever he be that shall be found guilty of this fact, he shall be burnt with fire with all his substance, because he hath transgressed the covenant of the Lord, and hath done wickedness in Israel.

drb@Joshua:7:19 @And Josue said to Achan: My son, give glory to the Lord God of Israel, and confess, and tell me what thou hast done, hide it not.

drb@Joshua:7:20 @And Achan answered Josue, and said to him: Indeed I have sinned against the Lord the God of Israel, and thus and thus have I done.

drb@Joshua:7:23 @And taking them away out of the tent, they brought them to Josue, and to all the children of Israel, and threw them down before the Lord.

drb@Joshua:7:25 @Where Josue said: Because thou hast troubled us, the Lord trouble thee this day. And all Israel stoned him: and all things that were his, were consumed with fire.

drb@Joshua:7:26 @And they gathered together upon him a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day. And the wrath of the Lord was turned away from them. And the name of that place was called the Valley of Achor, until this day.

drb@Joshua:8:1 @And the Lord said to Josue: Fear not, nor be thou dismayed: take with thee all the multitude of fighting men, arise and go up to the town of Hai. Behold I have delivered into thy hand the king thereof, and the people, and the city, and the land.

drb@Joshua:8:7 @And whilst we are fleeing, and they pursuing, you shall arise out of the ambush, and shall destroy the city: and the Lord your God will deliver it into our hands.

drb@Joshua:8:18 @The Lord said to Josue: Lift up the shield that is in thy hand, towards the city of Hai, for I will deliver it to thee

drb@Joshua:8:27 @And the children of Israel divided among them the cattle and the prey of the city, as the Lord had commanded Josue.

drb@Joshua:8:30 @Then Josue built an altar to the Lord the God of Israel in mount Hebal,

drb@Joshua:8:31 @As Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the children of Israel, and it is written in the book of the law of Moses: an altar of unhewn stones which iron had not touched: and he offered upon it holocausts to the Lord, and immolated victims of peace offerings.

drb@Joshua:8:33 @And all the people, and the ancients, and the princes and judges stood on both sides of the ark, before the priests that carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, both the stranger and he that was born among them, half of them by mount Garizim, and half by mount Hebal, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. And first he blessed the people of Israel.

drb@Joshua:9:9 @They answered: From a very far country thy servants are come in the name of the Lord thy God. For we have heard the fame of his power, all the things that he did in Egypt.

drb@Joshua:9:14 @They took therefore of their victuals, and consulted not the mouth of the Lord.

drb@Joshua:9:18 @And they slew them not, because the princes of the multitude had sworn in the name of the Lord the God of Israel. Then all the common people murmured against the princes.

drb@Joshua:9:19 @And they answered them: We have sworn to them in the name of the Lord the God of Israel, and therefore we may not touch them.

drb@Joshua:9:20 @But this we mill do to them: Let their lives be saved, lest the wrath of the Lord be stirred up against us, if we should be forsworn

drb@Joshua:9:24 @They answered: It was told us thy servants, that the Lord thy God had promised his servant Moses to give you all the land, and to destroy all the inhabitants thereof. Therefore we feared exceedingly and provided for our lives. compelled by the dread we had of you and we took this counsel.

drb@Joshua:9:27 @And he gave orders in that day that they should be in the service of all the people, and of the altar of the Lord, hewing wood and carrying water, until this present time, in the place which the Lord hath chosen.

drb@Joshua:10:8 @And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for I have delivered them into thy hands: none of them shall be able to stand against thee.

drb@Joshua:10:10 @And the Lord troubled them at the sight of Israel: and he slew them with a great slaughter in Gabaon, and pursued them by the way of the ascent to Beth-horon, and cut them off all the way to Azeca and Maceda.

drb@Joshua:10:11 @And when they were fleeing from the children of Israel, and were in the descent of Beth-horon, the Lord cast down upon them great stones from heaven as far as Azeca: and many more were killed with the hailstones than were slain by the swords of the children of Israel.

drb@Joshua:10:12 @Then Josue spoke to the Lord, in the day that he delivered the Amorrhite in the sight of the children of Israel, and he said before them: Move not, O sun, toward Gabaon, nor thou, O moon, toward the valley of Ajalon.

drb@Joshua:10:14 @There was not before nor after so long a day, the Lord obeying the voice of a man, and fighting for Israel.

drb@Joshua:10:19 @And stay you not, but pursue after the enemies, and kill all the hindermost of them as they flee, and do not suffer them whom the Lord God hath delivered into your hands to shelter themselves in their cities.

drb@Joshua:10:25 @He said again to them: Fear not, neither be ye dismayed, take courage and be strong: for so will the Lord do to all your enemies, against whom you fight.

drb@Joshua:10:30 @And the Lord delivered it with the king thereof into the hands of Israel: and they destroyed the city with the edge of the sword, and all the inhabitants thereof. They left not in it any remains. And they did to the king of Lebna, as they had done to the king of Jericho.

drb@Joshua:10:32 @And the Lord delivered Lachis into the hands of Israel, and he took it the following day, and put it to the sword, and every soul that was in it, as he had done to Lebna.

drb@Joshua:10:40 @So Josue conquered all the country of the hills and of the south and of the plain, and of Asedoth, with their kings: he left not any remains therein, but slew all that breathed, as the Lord the God of Israel had commanded him,

drb@Joshua:10:42 @And all their kings, and their lands he took and wasted at one onset: for the Lord the God of Israel fought for him.

drb@Joshua:11:6 @And the Lord said to Josue: Fear them not: for to morrow at this same hour I will deliver all these to be slain in the sight of Israel: thou shalt hamstring their horses, and thou shalt burn their chariots with fire.

drb@Joshua:11:8 @And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Israel. And they defeated them, and chased them as far as the great Sidon, and the waters of Maserophot, and the field of Masphe, which is on the east side thereof. He slew them all, so as to leave no remains of them:

drb@Joshua:11:9 @And he did as the Lord had commanded him, he hamstringed their horses and burned their chariots.

drb@Joshua:11:15 @As the Lord had commanded Moses his servant, so did Moses command Josue, and he accomplished all: he left not one thing undone of all the commandments which the Lord had commanded Moses.

drb@Joshua:11:20 @For it was the sentence of the Lord, that their hearts should be hardened, and they should fight against Israel, and fall, and should not deserve any clemency, and should be destroyed as the Lord had commanded Moses.

drb@Joshua:11:23 @So Josue took all the land, as the Lord spoke to Moses, and delivered it in possession to the children of Israel, according to their divisions and tribes. And the land rested from wars.

drb@Joshua:12:6 @Moses the servant of the Lord, and the children of Israel slew them, and Moses delivered their land in possession to the Rubenites, and Gadites, and the half tribe of Manasses.

drb@Joshua:13:1 @Josue was old, and far advanced in years, and the Lord said to him: Thou art grown old, and advanced in age, and there is a very large country left, which is not yet divided by lot:

drb@Joshua:13:3 @From the troubled river, that watereth Egypt, unto the borders of Accaron northward: the land of Chanaan, which is divided among the lords of the Philistines, the Gazites, the Azotians, the Ascalonites, the Gethites, and the Accronites.

drb@Joshua:13:8 @With whom Ruben and Gad have possessed the land, which Moses the servant of the Lord delivered to them beyond the river Jordan, on the east side.

drb@Joshua:13:14 @But to the tribe of Levi he gave no possession: but the sacrifices and victims of the Lord God of Israel, are his inheritance, as he spoke to him.

drb@Joshua:13:33 @But to the tribe of Levi he gave no possession: because the Lord the God of Israel himself is their possession, as he spoke to them.

drb@Joshua:14:2 @Dividing all by lot, as the Lord had commanded by the hand of Moses, to the nine tribes, and the half tribe.

drb@Joshua:14:5 @As the Lord had commanded Moses, so did the children of Israel, and they divided the land.

drb@Joshua:14:6 @Then the children of Juda came to Josue in Galgal, and Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite spoke to him: Thou knowest what the Lord spoke to Moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Cadesbarne.

drb@Joshua:14:7 @I was forty Bears old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me m from Cadesbarne, to view the land, and I brought him word again as to me seemed true.

drb@Joshua:14:8 @But my brethren, that had gone up with me, discouraged the heart of the people: and I nevertheless followed the Lord my God.

drb@Joshua:14:9 @And Moses swore in that day, saying: The land which thy foot hath trodden upon shall be thy possession, and thy children's for ever, because thou hast followed the Lord my God.

drb@Joshua:14:10 @The Lord therefore hath granted me life, as he promised until this present day. It is forty and five years since the Lord spoke this word to Moses, when Israel journeyed through the wilderness: this day I am eighty-five years old,

drb@Joshua:14:12 @Give me therefore this mountain, which the Lord promised, in thy hearing also, wherein are the Enacims, and cities great and strong: if so be the Lord will be with me, and I shall be able to destroy them, as he promised me.

drb@Joshua:14:14 @And from that time Hebron belonged to Caleb the son of Jephone the Cenezite, until this present day: because he followed the Lord the God of Israel.

drb@Joshua:15:13 @But to Caleb the son of Jephone he gave a portion in the midst of the children of Juda, as the Lord had commanded him: Cariath-Arbe the father of Enac. which is Hebron.

drb@Joshua:17:4 @And they came in the presence of Eleazar the priest and of Josue the son of Nun, and of the princes, saying: The Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, that a possession should be given us in the midst of our brethren. And he gave them according to the commandment of the Lord a possession amongst the brethren of their father.

drb@Joshua:17:14 @And the children of Joseph spoke to Josue, and said: Why hast thou given me but one lot and one portion to possess, whereas I am of so great a multitude, and the Lord hath blessed me?

drb@Joshua:18:4 @And Josue said to them: How long are you indolent and slack, and go not in to possess the land which the Lord the God of your fathers hath given you?

drb@Joshua:18:7 @The land in the midst between these mark ye out into seven parts; and you shall come hither to me, that I may cast lots for you before the Lord your God.

drb@Joshua:18:8 @For the Levites have no part among you, but the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance. And Gad and Ruben, and the half tribe of Manasses have already received their possessions beyond the Jordan eastward: which Moses the servant of the Lord gave them.

drb@Joshua:18:9 @And when the men were risen up, to go to mark out the land, Josue commanded them, saying: Go round the land and mark it out, and return to me: that I may cast lots for you before the Lord in Silo.

drb@Joshua:18:11 @And he cast lots before the Lord in Silo, and divided the land to the children of Israel into seven parts

drb@Joshua:19:50 @According to the commandment of the Lord, the city which he asked for, Thamnath Saraa, in mount Ephraim: and he built up the city, and dwelt in it.

drb@Joshua:19:51 @These are the possessions which Eleazar the priest, and Josue the son of Nun, and the princes of the families, and of the tribes of the children of Israel, distributed by lot in Silo, before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the testimony, and they divided the land.

drb@Joshua:20:1 @And the Lord spoke to Josue, saying: Speak to the children of Israel and say to them:

drb@Joshua:21:2 @And they spoke to them in Silo in the land of Chanaan, and said: The Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, that cities should be given us to dwell in, and their suburbs to feed our cattle.

drb@Joshua:21:3 @And the children of Israel gave out of their possessions according to the commandment of the Lord, cities and their suburbs.

drb@Joshua:21:8 @And the children of Israel gave to the Levites the cities and their suburbs, as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses, giving to every one by lot.

drb@Joshua:21:41 @And the Lord God gave to Israel all the land that he had sworn to give to their fathers: and they possessed it and dwelt in it.

drb@Joshua:22:2 @And said to them: You have done all that Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you: you have also obeyed me in all things,

drb@Joshua:22:3 @Neither have you left your brethren this long time, until this present day, keeping the commandment of the Lord your God.

drb@Joshua:22:4 @Therefore as the Lord your God hath given your brethren rest and peace, as he promised: return, and go to your dwellings, and to the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave you beyond the Jordan:

drb@Joshua:22:5 @Yet so that you observe attentively, and in work fulfil the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of the Lord commanded you: that you love the Lord your God, and walk in all his ways, and keep all his commandments, and cleave to him, and serve him with all your heart, and with all your soul.

drb@Joshua:22:9 @So the children of Ruben, and the children of Gad, and the half tribe of Manasses returned, and parted from the children of Israel in Silo, which is in Chanaan, to go into Galaad the land of their possession, which they had obtained according to the commandment of the Lord by the hand of Moses.

drb@Joshua:22:16 @Thus saith all the people of the Lord: What meaneth this transgression? Why have you forsaken the Lord the God of Israel, building a sacrilegious altar, and revolting from the worship of him?

drb@Joshua:22:18 @And you have forsaken the Lord to day, and to morrow his wrath will rage against all Israel.

drb@Joshua:22:19 @But if you think the land of your possession to be unclean, pass over to the land wherein is the tabernacle of the Lord, and dwell among us: only depart not from the Lord, and from our society, by building an altar beside the altar of the Lord our God.

drb@Joshua:22:20 @Did not Achan the son of Zare transgress the commandment of the Lord, and his wrath lay upon all the people of Israel? And he was but one man, and would to God he alone had perished in his wickedness.

drb@Joshua:22:22 @The Lord the most mighty God, the Lord the most mighty God, he knoweth, and Israel also shall understand: If with the design of transgression we have set up this altar, let him not save us, but punish us immediately:

drb@Joshua:22:24 @And not rather with this thought and design, that we should say: To morrow your children will say to our children: What have you to do with the Lord the God of Israel?

drb@Joshua:22:25 @The Lord hath put the river Jordan for a border between us and you, O ye children of Ruben, and ye children of Gad: and therefore you have no part in the Lord. And by this occasion you children shall turn away our children from the fear of the Lord. We therefore thought, it best,

drb@Joshua:22:27 @But for a testimony between us and you, and our posterity and yours, that we may serve the Lord, and that we may have a right to offer both holocausts, and victims and sacrifices of peace offerings: and that your children to morrow may not say to our children: You have no part in the Lord.

drb@Joshua:22:28 @And if they will say so, they shall answer them: Behold the altar of the Lord, which our fathers made, not for holocausts, nor for sacrifice, but for a testimony between us and you.

drb@Joshua:22:29 @God keep us from any such wickedness that we should revolt from the Lord, and leave off following his steps, by building an altar to offer holocausts, and sacrifices, and victims, beside the altar of the Lord our God, which is erected before his tabernacle.

drb@Joshua:22:31 @And Phinees the priest the son of Eleazar said to them: Now we know that the Lord is with us, because you are not guilty of this revolt, and you have delivered the children of Israel from the hand of the Lord.

drb@Joshua:22:34 @And the children of Ruben, and the children of Cad called the altar which they had built, Our testimony, that the Lord is God.

drb@Joshua:23:1 @And when a long time was passed, after that the Lord had given peace to Israel, all the nations round about being subdued, and Josue being now old, and far advanced in years:

drb@Joshua:23:3 @And you see all that the Lord your God hath done to all the nations round about, how he himself hath fought for you:

drb@Joshua:23:5 @The Lord your God will destroy them, and take them away from before your face, and you shall possess the land as he hath promised you.

drb@Joshua:23:8 @But cleave ye unto the Lord your God: as you have done until this day.

drb@Joshua:23:9 @And then the Lord God will take away before your eyes nations that are great and very strong, and no man shall be able to resist you.

drb@Joshua:23:10 @One of you shall chase a thousand men of the enemies: because the Lord your God himself will fight for you, as he hath promised.

drb@Joshua:23:11 @11This only take care of with all diligence, that you love the Lord your God.

drb@Joshua:23:13 @Know ye for a certainty that the Lord your God will not destroy them be- fore your face, but they shall be a pit and a snare in your way, and a stumblingblock at your side, and stakes in your eyes, till he take you away and destroy you from off this excellent land, which he hath given you.

drb@Joshua:23:14 @Behold this day I am going into the way of all the earth, and you shall know with all your mind that of all the words which the Lord promised to perform for you, not one hath failed.

drb@Joshua:23:16 @When you shall have transgressed the covenant of the Lord your God, which he hath made with you, and shall have served strange gods, and adored them: then shall the indignation of the Lord rise up quickly and speedily against you, and you shall be taken away from this excellent land, which he hath delivered to you.

drb@Joshua:24:1 @And Josue gathered together all the tribes of Israel in Sichem, and called for the ancients, and the princes, and the judges, and the masters: and they stood in the sight of the Lord:

drb@Joshua:24:2 @And he spoke thus to the people: Thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Your fathers dwelt of old on the other side of the river, Thare the father of Abraham, and Nachor: and they served strange gods.

drb@Joshua:24:7 @And the children of Israel cried to the Lord: and he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea upon them, and covered them. Your eyes saw all that I did in Egypt, and you dwelt in the wilderness a long time:

drb@Joshua:24:14 @Now therefore fear the Lord, and serve him with a perfect and most sincere heart: and put away the gods which your fathers served in Mesopotamia and in Egypt, and serve the Lord.

drb@1Samuel:1:7 @And thus she did every year, when the time returned that they went up to the temple of the Lord: and thus she provoked her: but Anna wept, and did not eat.

drb@1Samuel:1:10 @As Anna had her heart full of grief, she prayed to the Lord, shedding many tears,

drb@1Samuel:1:11 @And she made a vow, saying: O Lord, of hosts, if thou wilt look down on the affliction of thy servant, and wilt be mindful of me, and not forget thy handmaid, and wilt give to thy servant a man child: I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.

drb@1Samuel:1:12 @And it came to pass, as she multiplied prayers before the Lord, that Heli observed her mouth.

drb@1Samuel:1:15 @Anna answering, said: Not so, my lord: for I am an exceeding unhappy woman, and have drunk neither wine nor any strong drink, but I have poured out my soul before the Lord.

drb@1Samuel:1:19 @And they rose in the morning, and worshipped before the Lord: and they returned, and came into their house at Ramatha. And Elcana knew Anna his wife: and the Lord remembered her.

drb@1Samuel:15:13 @And when Samuel was come to Saul, Saul said to him: Blessed be thou of the Lord, I have fulfilled the word of the Lord.

drb@1Samuel:15:15 @And Saul said: They have brought them from Amalec: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the herds that they might be sacrificed to the Lord thy God, but the rest we have slain.

drb@1Samuel:15:16 @And Samuel said to Saul: Suffer me, and I will tell thee what the Lord hath said to me this night. And he said to him: Speak.

drb@1Samuel:15:17 @And Samuel said: When thou wast a little one in thy own eyes, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel? And the Lord anointed thee to be king over Israel.

drb@1Samuel:15:18 @And the Lord sent thee on the way, and said: Go, and kill the sinners of Amalec, and thou shalt fight against them until thou hast utterly destroyed them.

drb@1Samuel:15:19 @Why then didst thou not hearken to the voice of the Lord: but hast turned to the prey, and hast done evil in the eyes of the Lord

drb@1Samuel:15:20 @And Saul said to Samuel: Yea I have hearkened to the voice of the Lord, and have walked in the way by which the Lord sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalec, and Amalec I have slain.

drb@1Samuel:15:21 @But the people took of the spoils sheep and oxen, as the firstfruits of those things that were slain, to offer sacrifice to the Lord their God in Galgal.

drb@1Samuel:15:22 @And Samuel said: Doth the Lord desire holocausts and victims, and not rather that the voice of the Lord should be obeyed? For obedience is better than sacrifices: and to hearken rather than to offer the fat of rams.

drb@1Samuel:15:23 @Because it is like the sin of witchcraft, to rebel: and like the crime of idolatry, to refuse to obey. Forasmuch therefore as thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, the Lord hath also rejected thee from being king.

drb@1Samuel:15:24 @And Saul said to Samuel: I have sinned because I have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and thy words, fearing the people, and obeying their voice.

drb@1Samuel:15:25 @But now bear, I beseech thee, my sin, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord.

drb@1Samuel:15:26 @And Samuel said to Saul: I will not return with thee, because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.

drb@1Samuel:15:28 @And Samuel said to him: The Lord hath rent the kingdom of Israel from thee this day, and hath given it to thy neighbour who is better than thee.

drb@1Samuel:15:30 @Then he said: I have sinned: yet honour me now before the ancients of my people, and before Israel, and return with me, that I may adore the Lord thy God.

drb@1Samuel:15:31 @So Samuel turned again after Saul: and Saul adored the Lord.

drb@1Samuel:15:33 @And Samuel said: As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed him in pieces before the Lord in Galgal.

drb@1Samuel:15:35 @And Samuel saw Saul no more till the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul, because the Lord repented that he had made him king over Israel.

drb@1Samuel:16:1 @And the Lord said to Samuel. How It long wilt thou mourn for Saul, whom I have rejected from reigning over Israel? fill thy horn with oil, and come, that I may send thee to Isai the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.

drb@1Samuel:16:2 @And Samuel said: How shall I go? for Saul will hear of it, and he will kill me. And the Lord said: Thou shalt take with thee a calf of the herd, and thou shalt say: I am come to sacrifice to the Lord.

drb@1Samuel:16:4 @Then Samuel did as the Lord had said to him. And he came to Bethlehem, and the ancients of the city wondered, and meeting him, they said: Is thy coming hither peaceable?

drb@1Samuel:16:5 @And he said: It is peaceable: I am come to offer sacrifice to the Lord, be ye sanctified, and come with me to the sacrifice. And he sanctified Isai and his sons, and called them to the sacrifice.

drb@1Samuel:16:6 @And when they were come in, he saw Eliab, and said: Is the Lord's anointed before him?

drb@1Samuel:16:7 @And the Lord said to Samuel: Look not on his countenance, nor on the height of his stature: because I have rejected him, nor do I judge according to the look of man: for man seeth those things that appear, but the Lord beholdeth the heart.

drb@1Samuel:16:8 @And Isai called Abinadab, and brought him before Samuel. And he said: Neither hath the Lord chosen this.

drb@1Samuel:16:9 @And Isai brought Samma, and he said of him: Neither hath the Lord chosen this.

drb@1Samuel:16:10 @Isai therefore brought his seven sons before Samuel: and Samuel said to Isai: The Lord hath not chosen any one of these.

drb@1Samuel:16:12 @He sent therefore and brought him Now he was ruddy and beautiful to behold, and of a comely face. And the Lord said: Arise, and anoint him, for this is he.

drb@1Samuel:16:13 @Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward: and Samuel rose up, and went to Ramatha.

drb@1Samuel:16:14 @But the spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him.

drb@1Samuel:16:16 @Let our lord give orders, and thy servants who are before thee will seek out a man skilful in playing on the harp, that when the evil spirit from the Lord is upon thee, he may play with his hand, and thou mayest bear it more easily.

drb@1Samuel:16:18 @And one of the servants answering, said: Behold I have seen a son of Isai the Bethlehemite, a skilful player, and one of great strength, and a man fit for war, and prudent in his words, and a comely person: and the Lord is with him.

drb@1Samuel:16:23 @So whensoever the evil spirit from the Lord was upon Saul, David took his harp, and played with his hand, and Saul was refreshed, and was better, for the evil spirit departed from him.

drb@1Samuel:17:37 @And David said: The Lord who delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David: Go, and the Lord be with thee.

drb@1Samuel:17:45 @And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast defied.

drb@1Samuel:17:46 @This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel.

drb@1Samuel:17:47 @And all this assembly shall know, that the Lord saveth not with sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our hands.

drb@1Samuel:18:12 @And Saul feared David, because the Lord was with him, and was departed from himself.

drb@1Samuel:18:14 @And David behaved wisely in all his ways, and the Lord was with him.

drb@1Samuel:18:17 @And Saul said to David: Behold my elder daughter Merob, her will I give thee to wife: only be a valiant man, and fight the battles of the Lord. Now Saul said within himself: Let not my hand be upon him, but let the hands of the Philistines be upon him.

drb@1Samuel:18:28 @And Saul saw, and understood that the Lord was with David. And Michol the daughter of Saul loved him.

drb@1Samuel:19:5 @And he put his life in his hand, and slew the Philistine, and the Lord wrought great salvation for all Israel. Thou sawest it and didst rejoice. Why therefore wilt thou sin against innocent blood by killing David, who is without fault?

drb@1Samuel:19:6 @And when Saul heard this he was appeased with the words of Jonathan, and swore: As the Lord liveth he shall not be slain.

drb@1Samuel:19:9 @And the evil spirit from the Lord came upon Saul, and he sat in his house, and held a spear in his hand: and David played with his hand.

drb@1Samuel:19:20 @So Saul sent officers to take David: and when they saw a company of prophets prophesying, and Samuel presiding over them, the spirit of the Lord came also upon them, and they likewise began to prophesy.

But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death.

drb@1Samuel:20:8 @Deal mercifully then with thy servant: for thou hast brought me thy servant into a covenant of the Lord with thee. But if there be any iniquity in me, do thou kill me, and bring me not in to thy father.

drb@1Samuel:20:12 @Jonathan said to David: O Lord God of Israel, if I shall discover my father's mind, to morrow or the day after, and there be any thing good for David, and I send not immediately to thee, and make it known to thee,

drb@1Samuel:20:23 @And concerning the word which I and thou have spoken, the Lord be between thee and me for ever.

drb@1Samuel:20:42 @And Jonathan said to David: Go in peace: and let all stand that we have sworn both of us in the name of the Lord, saying: The Lord be between me and thee, and between my seed and thy seed for ever.
