nasb@Joshua:1:1 @Then Joshua the son of Nun sent two men as spies secretly from Shittim, saying, "Go, view the land, especially Jericho." So they went and came into the house of a harlot whose name was Rahab, and lodged there.

nasb@Joshua:1:2 @It was told the king of Jericho, saying, "Behold, men from the sons of Israel have come here tonight to search out the land."

nasb@Joshua:1:3 @And the king of Jericho sent word to Rahab, saying, "Bring out the men who have come to you, who have entered your house, for they have come to search out all the land."

nasb@Joshua:1:4 @But the woman had taken the two men and hidden them, and she said, "Yes, the men came to me, but I did not know where they were from.

nasb@Joshua:1:5" @It came about when it was time to shut the gate at dark, that the men went out; I do not know where the men went. Pursue them quickly, for you will overtake them."

nasb@Joshua:1:9 @and said to the men, " I know that the LORD has given you the land, and that the terror of you has fallen on us, and that all the inhabitants of the land have melted away before you.

nasb@Joshua:1:14 @So the men said to her, "Our life for yours if you do not tell this business of ours; and it shall come about when the LORD gives us the land that we will deal kindly and faithfully with you."

nasb@Joshua:1:17 @The men said to her, " We shall be free from this oath to you which you have made us swear,

nasb@Joshua:2:12" @Now then, take for yourselves twelve men from the tribes of Israel, one man for each tribe.

nasb@Joshua:2:2" @ Take for yourselves twelve men from the people, one man from each tribe,

nasb@Joshua:2:4 @So Joshua called the twelve men whom he had appointed from the sons of Israel, one man from each tribe;

nasb@Joshua:3:4 @This is the reason why Joshua circumcised them- all the people who came out of Egypt who were males, all the men of war, died in the wilderness along the way after they came out of Egypt.

nasb@Joshua:3:6 @For the sons of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, until all the nation, that is, the men of war who came out of Egypt, perished because they did not listen to the voice of the LORD, to whom the LORD had sworn that He would not let them see the land which the LORD had sworn to their fathers to give us, a land flowing with milk and honey.

nasb@Joshua:4:3" @You shall march around the city, all the men of war circling the city once. You shall do so for six days.

nasb@Joshua:4:7 @Then he said to the people, "Go forward, and march around the city, and let the armed men go on before the ark of the LORD."

nasb@Joshua:4:9 @The armed men went before the priests who blew the trumpets, and the rear guard came after the ark, while they continued to blow the trumpets.

nasb@Joshua:4:13 @The seven priests carrying the seven trumpets of rams' horns before the ark of the LORD went on continually, and blew the trumpets; and the armed men went before them and the rear guard came after the ark of the LORD, while they continued to blow the trumpets.

nasb@Joshua:4:22 @Joshua said to the two men who had spied out the land, " Go into the harlot's house and bring the woman and all she has out of there, as you have sworn to her."

nasb@Joshua:4:23 @So the young men who were spies went in and brought out Rahab and her father and her mother and her brothers and all she had; they also brought out all her relatives and placed them outside the camp of Israel.

nasb@Joshua:5:2 @Now Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is near Beth-aven, east of Bethel, and said to them, "Go up and spy out the land." So the men went up and spied out Ai.

nasb@Joshua:5:3 @They returned to Joshua and said to him, "Do not let all the people go up; only about two or three thousand men need go up to Ai; do not make all the people toil up there, for they are few."

nasb@Joshua:5:4 @So about three thousand men from the people went up there, but they fled from the men of Ai.

nasb@Joshua:5:5 @The men of Ai struck down about thirty-six of their men, and pursued them from the gate as far as Shebarim and struck them down on the descent, so the hearts of the people melted and became as water.

nasb@Joshua:5:3 @So Joshua rose with all the people of war to go up to Ai; and Joshua chose 30,000 men, valiant warriors, and sent them out at night.

nasb@Joshua:5:12 @And he took about 5,000 men and set them in ambush between Bethel and Ai, on the west side of the city.

nasb@Joshua:5:14 @It came about when the king of Ai saw it, that the men of the city hurried and rose up early and went out to meet Israel in battle, he and all his people at the appointed place before the desert plain. But he did not know that there was an ambush against him behind the city.

nasb@Joshua:5:19 @The men in ambush rose quickly from their place, and when he had stretched out his hand, they ran and entered the city and captured it, and they quickly set the city on fire.

nasb@Joshua:5:20 @When the men of Ai turned back and looked, behold, the smoke of the city ascended to the sky, and they had no place to flee this way or that, for the people who had been fleeing to the wilderness turned against the pursuers.

nasb@Joshua:5:21 @When Joshua and all Israel saw that the men in ambush had captured the city and that the smoke of the city ascended, they turned back and slew the men of Ai.

nasb@Joshua:5:25 @All who fell that day, both men and women, were 12,000--all the people of Ai.

nasb@Joshua:5:35 @There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded which Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel with the women and the little ones and the strangers who were living among them.

nasb@Joshua:6:4 @they also acted craftily and set out as envoys, and took worn-out sacks on their donkeys, and wineskins worn-out and torn and mended,

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

nasb@Joshua:6:7 @The men of Israel said to the Hivites, "Perhaps you are living within our land; how then shall we make a covenant with you?"

nasb@Joshua:6:14 @So the men of Israel took some of their provisions, and did not ask for the counsel of the LORD.

nasb@Joshua:7:2 @that he feared greatly, because Gibeon was a great city, like one of the royal cities, and because it was greater than Ai, and all its men were mighty.

nasb@Joshua:7:6 @Then the men of Gibeon sent word to Joshua to the camp at Gilgal, saying, "Do not abandon your servants; come up to us quickly and save us and help us, for all the kings of the Amorites that live in the hill country have assembled against us."

nasb@Joshua:7:18 @Joshua said, "Roll large stones against the mouth of the cave, and assign men by it to guard them,

nasb@Joshua:7:24 @When they brought these kings out to Joshua, Joshua called for all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the men of war who had gone with him, "Come near, put your feet on the necks of these kings." So they came near and put their feet on their necks.

nasb@Joshua:14:4" @Provide for yourselves three men from each tribe that I may send them, and that they may arise and walk through the land and write a description of it according to their inheritance; then they shall return to me.

nasb@Joshua:14:8 @Then the men arose and went, and Joshua commanded those who went to describe the land, saying, "Go and walk through the land and describe it, and return to me; then I will cast lots for you here before the LORD in Shiloh."

nasb@Joshua:14:9 @So the men went and passed through the land, and described it by cities in seven divisions in a book; and they came to Joshua to the camp at Shiloh.

nasb@Joshua:15:6 @'He shall dwell in that city until he stands before the congregation for judgment, until the death of the one who is high priest in those days. Then the manslayer shall return to his own city and to his own house, to the city from which he fled.'"

nasb@Joshua:16:9 @They gave these cities which are here mentioned by name from the tribe of the sons of Judah and from the tribe of the sons of Simeon;

nasb@Joshua:17:3" @You have not forsaken your brothers these many days to this day, but have kept the charge of the commandment of the LORD your God.

nasb@Joshua:17:5" @Only be very careful to observe the commandment and the law which Moses the servant of the LORD commanded you, to love the LORD your God and walk in all His ways and keep His commandments and hold fast to Him and serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul."

nasb@Joshua:18:7 @so that you will not associate with these nations, these which remain among you, or mention the name of their gods, or make anyone swear by them, or serve them, or bow down to them.

nasb@Joshua:18:10" @ One of your men puts to flight a thousand, for the LORD your God is He who fights for you, just as He promised you.

nasb@Joshua:19:6 @'I brought your fathers out of Egypt, and you came to the sea; and Egypt pursued your fathers with chariots and horsemen to the Red Sea.

nasb@Judges:1:4 @Judah went up, and the LORD gave the Canaanites and the Perizzites into their hands, and they defeated ten thousand men at Bezek.

nasb@Judges:2:17 @Yet they did not listen to their judges, for they played the harlot after other gods and bowed themselves down to them. They turned aside quickly from the way in which their fathers had walked in obeying the commandments of the LORD; they did not do as their fathers.

nasb@Judges:3:4 @They were for testing Israel, to find out if they would obey the commandments of the LORD, which He had commanded their fathers through Moses.

nasb@Judges:3:29 @They struck down at that time about ten thousand Moabites, all robust and valiant men; and no one escaped.

nasb@Judges:4:5 @She used to sit under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim; and the sons of Israel came up to her for judgment.

nasb@Judges:4:6 @Now she sent and summoned Barak the son of Abinoam from Kedesh-naphtali, and said to him, "Behold, the LORD, the God of Israel, has commanded, 'Go and march to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men from the sons of Naphtali and from the sons of Zebulun.

nasb@Judges:4:10 @Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh, and ten thousand men went up with him; Deborah also went up with him.

nasb@Judges:4:14 @Deborah said to Barak, "Arise! For this is the day in which the LORD has given Sisera into your hands; behold, the LORD has gone out before you." So Barak went down from Mount Tabor with ten thousand men following him.

nasb@Judges:4:24" @ Most blessed of women is Jael, The wife of Heber the Kenite; Most blessed is she of women in the tent.

nasb@Judges:4:26" @She reached out her hand for the tent peg, And her right hand for the workmen's hammer. Then she struck Sisera, she smashed his head; And she shattered and pierced his temple.

nasb@Judges:4:28" @Out of the window she looked and lamented, The mother of Sisera through the lattice, 'Why does his chariot delay in coming? Why do the hoofbeats of his chariots tarry?'

nasb@Judges:5:27 @Then Gideon took ten men of his servants and did as the LORD had spoken to him; and because he was too afraid of his father's household and the men of the city to do it by day, he did it by night.

nasb@Judges:5:28 @When the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was torn down, and the Asherah which was beside it was cut down, and the second bull was offered on the altar which had been built.

nasb@Judges:5:30 @Then the men of the city said to Joash, "Bring out your son, that he may die, for he has torn down the altar of Baal, and indeed, he has cut down the Asherah which was beside it."

nasb@Judges:6:6 @Now the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was 300 men; but all the rest of the people kneeled to drink water.

nasb@Judges:6:7 @The LORD said to Gideon, "I will deliver you with the 300 men who lapped and will give the Midianites into your hands; so let all the other people go, each man to his home."

nasb@Judges:6:8 @So the 300 men took the people's provisions and their trumpets into their hands. And Gideon sent all the other men of Israel, each to his tent, but retained the 300 men; and the camp of Midian was below him in the valley.

nasb@Judges:6:16 @He divided the 300 men into three companies, and he put trumpets and empty pitchers into the hands of all of them, with torches inside the pitchers.

nasb@Judges:6:19 @So Gideon and the hundred men who were with him came to the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, when they had just posted the watch; and they blew the trumpets and smashed the pitchers that were in their hands.

nasb@Judges:6:23 @The men of Israel were summoned from Naphtali and Asher and all Manasseh, and they pursued Midian.

nasb@Judges:6:24 @Gideon sent messengers throughout all the hill country of Ephraim, saying, "Come down against Midian and take the waters before them, as far as Beth-barah and the Jordan." So all the men of Ephraim were summoned and they took the waters as far as Beth-barah and the Jordan.

nasb@Judges:7:1 @Then the men of Ephraim said to him, " What is this thing you have done to us, not calling us when you went to fight against Midian?" And they contended with him vigorously.

nasb@Judges:7:4 @Then Gideon and the 300 men who were with him came to the Jordan and crossed over, weary yet pursuing.

nasb@Judges:7:5 @He said to the men of Succoth, "Please give loaves of bread to the people who are following me, for they are weary, and I am pursuing Zebah and Zalmunna, the kings of Midian."

nasb@Judges:7:8 @He went up from there to Penuel and spoke similarly to them; and the men of Penuel answered him just as the men of Succoth had answered.

nasb@Judges:7:9 @So he spoke also to the men of Penuel, saying, "When I return safely, I will tear down this tower."

nasb@Judges:7:10 @Now Zebah and Zalmunna were in Karkor, and their armies with them, about 15,000 men, all who were left of the entire army of the sons of the east; for the fallen were 120,000 swordsmen.

nasb@Judges:7:14 @And he captured a youth from Succoth and questioned him. Then the youth wrote down for him the princes of Succoth and its elders, seventy-seven men.

nasb@Judges:7:15 @He came to the men of Succoth and said, "Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, concerning whom you taunted me, saying, ' Are the hands of Zebah and Zalmunna already in your hand, that we should give bread to your men who are weary?'"

nasb@Judges:7:16 @He took the elders of the city, and thorns of the wilderness and briers, and he disciplined the men of Succoth with them.

nasb@Judges:7:17 @He tore down the tower of Penuel and killed the men of the city.

nasb@Judges:7:18 @Then he said to Zebah and Zalmunna, "What kind of men were they whom you killed at Tabor?" And they said, "They were like you, each one resembling the son of a king."

nasb@Judges:7:21 @Then Zebah and Zalmunna said, "Rise up yourself, and fall on us; for as the man, so is his strength." So Gideon arose and killed Zebah and Zalmunna, and took the crescent ornaments which were on their camels' necks.

nasb@Judges:7:22 @Then the men of Israel said to Gideon, "Rule over us, both you and your son, also your son's son, for you have delivered us from the hand of Midian."

nasb@Judges:7:25 @They said, "We will surely give them." So they spread out a garment, and every one of them threw an earring there from his spoil.

nasb@Judges:7:26 @The weight of the gold earrings that he requested was 1,700 shekels of gold, besides the crescent ornaments and the pendants and the purple robes which were on the kings of Midian, and besides the neck bands that were on their camels' necks.

nasb@Judges:7:2" @Speak, now, in the hearing of all the leaders of Shechem, 'Which is better for you, that seventy men, all the sons of Jerubbaal, rule over you, or that one man rule over you?' Also, remember that I am your bone and your flesh."

nasb@Judges:7:5 @Then he went to his father's house at Ophrah and killed his brothers the sons of Jerubbaal, seventy men, on one stone. But Jotham the youngest son of Jerubbaal was left, for he hid himself.

nasb@Judges:7:6 @All the men of Shechem and all Beth-millo assembled together, and they went and made Abimelech king, by the oak of the pillar which was in Shechem.

nasb@Judges:7:7 @Now when they told Jotham, he went and stood on the top of Mount Gerizim, and lifted his voice and called out. Thus he said to them, "Listen to me, O men of Shechem, that God may listen to you.

nasb@Judges:7:9" @But the olive tree said to them, 'Shall I leave my fatness with which God and men are honored, and go to wave over the trees?'

nasb@Judges:7:13" @But the vine said to them, 'Shall I leave my new wine, which cheers God and men, and go to wave over the trees?'

nasb@Judges:7:18 @but you have risen against my father's house today and have killed his sons, seventy men, on one stone, and have made Abimelech, the son of his maidservant, king over the men of Shechem, because he is your relative--

nasb@Judges:7:20" @But if not, let fire come out from Abimelech and consume the men of Shechem and Beth-millo; and let fire come out from the men of Shechem and from Beth-millo, and consume Abimelech."

nasb@Judges:7:23 @Then God sent an evil spirit between Abimelech and the men of Shechem; and the men of Shechem dealt treacherously with Abimelech,

nasb@Judges:7:24 @so that the violence done to the seventy sons of Jerubbaal might come, and their blood might be laid on Abimelech their brother, who killed them, and on the men of Shechem, who strengthened his hands to kill his brothers.

nasb@Judges:7:25 @The men of Shechem set men in ambush against him on the tops of the mountains, and they robbed all who might pass by them along the road; and it was told to Abimelech.

nasb@Judges:7:26 @Now Gaal the son of Ebed came with his relatives, and crossed over into Shechem; and the men of Shechem put their trust in him.

nasb@Judges:7:28 @Then Gaal the son of Ebed said, "Who is Abimelech, and who is Shechem, that we should serve him? Is he not the son of Jerubbaal, and is Zebul not his lieutenant? Serve the men of Hamor the father of Shechem; but why should we serve him?

nasb@Judges:7:36 @When Gaal saw the people, he said to Zebul, "Look, people are coming down from the tops of the mountains." But Zebul said to him, "You are seeing the shadow of the mountains as if they were men."

nasb@Judges:7:49 @All the people also cut down each one his branch and followed Abimelech, and put them on the inner chamber and set the inner chamber on fire over those inside, so that all the men of the tower of Shechem also died, about a thousand men and women.

nasb@Judges:7:51 @But there was a strong tower in the center of the city, and all the men and women with all the leaders of the city fled there and shut themselves in; and they went up on the roof of the tower.

nasb@Judges:7:55 @When the men of Israel saw that Abimelech was dead, each departed to his home.

nasb@Judges:7:57 @Also God returned all the wickedness of the men of Shechem on their heads, and the curse of Jotham the son of Jerubbaal came upon them.

nasb@Judges:10:1 @Then the men of Ephraim were summoned, and they crossed to Zaphon and said to Jephthah, "Why did you cross over to fight against the sons of Ammon without calling us to go with you? We will burn your house down on you."

nasb@Judges:10:4 @Then Jephthah gathered all the men of Gilead and fought Ephraim; and the men of Gilead defeated Ephraim, because they said, "You are fugitives of Ephraim, O Gileadites, in the midst of Ephraim and in the midst of Manasseh."

nasb@Judges:10:5 @The Gileadites captured the fords of the Jordan opposite Ephraim. And it happened when any of the fugitives of Ephraim said, "Let me cross over," the men of Gilead would say to him, "Are you an Ephraimite?" If he said, "No,"

nasb@Judges:12:10 @Then his father went down to the woman; and Samson made a feast there, for the young men customarily did this.

nasb@Judges:12:18 @So the men of the city said to him on the seventh day before the sun went down, "What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a lion?" And he said to them, "If you had not plowed with my heifer, You would not have found out my riddle."

nasb@Judges:13:10 @The men of Judah said, "Why have you come up against us?" And they said, "We have come up to bind Samson in order to do to him as he did to us."

nasb@Judges:13:11 @Then 3,000 men of Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam and said to Samson, "Do you not know that the Philistines are rulers over us? What then is this that you have done to us?" And he said to them, "As they did to me, so I have done to them."

nasb@Judges:13:15 @He found a fresh jawbone of a donkey, so he reached out and took it and killed a thousand men with it.

nasb@Judges:13:16 @Then Samson said, "With the jawbone of a donkey, Heaps upon heaps, With the jawbone of a donkey I have killed a thousand men."

nasb@Judges:14:9 @Now she had men lying in wait in an inner room. And she said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" But he snapped the cords as a string of tow snaps when it touches fire. So his strength was not discovered.

nasb@Judges:14:12 @So Delilah took new ropes and bound him with them and said to him, "The Philistines are upon you, Samson!" For the men were lying in wait in the inner room. But he snapped the ropes from his arms like a thread.

nasb@Judges:14:27 @Now the house was full of men and women, and all the lords of the Philistines were there. And about 3,000 men and women were on the roof looking on while Samson was amusing them.

nasb@Judges:16:2 @So the sons of Dan sent from their family five men out of their whole number, valiant men from Zorah and Eshtaol, to spy out the land and to search it; and they said to them, "Go, search the land." And they came to the hill country of Ephraim, to the house of Micah, and lodged there.

nasb@Judges:16:7 @Then the five men departed and came to Laish and saw the people who were in it living in security, after the manner of the Sidonians, quiet and secure; for there was no ruler humiliating them for anything in the land, and they were far from the Sidonians and had no dealings with anyone.

nasb@Judges:16:11 @Then from the family of the Danites, from Zorah and from Eshtaol, six hundred men armed with weapons of war set out.

nasb@Judges:16:14 @Then the five men who went to spy out the country of Laish said to their kinsmen, "Do you know that there are in these houses an ephod and household idols and a graven image and a molten image? Now therefore, consider what you should do."

nasb@Judges:16:16 @The six hundred men armed with their weapons of war, who were of the sons of Dan, stood by the entrance of the gate.

nasb@Judges:16:17 @Now the five men who went to spy out the land went up and entered there, and took the graven image and the ephod and household idols and the molten image, while the priest stood by the entrance of the gate with the six hundred men armed with weapons of war.

nasb@Judges:16:22 @When they had gone some distance from the house of Micah, the men who were in the houses near Micah's house assembled and overtook the sons of Dan.

nasb@Judges:16:25 @The sons of Dan said to him, "Do not let your voice be heard among us, or else fierce men will fall upon you and you will lose your life, with the lives of your household."

nasb@Judges:17:16 @Then behold, an old man was coming out of the field from his work at evening. Now the man was from the hill country of Ephraim, and he was staying in Gibeah, but the men of the place were Benjamites.

nasb@Judges:17:22 @While they were celebrating, behold, the men of the city, certain worthless fellows, surrounded the house, pounding the door; and they spoke to the owner of the house, the old man, saying, "Bring out the man who came into your house that we may have relations with him."

nasb@Judges:17:25 @But the men would not listen to him. So the man seized his concubine and brought her out to them; and they raped her and abused her all night until morning, then let her go at the approach of dawn.

nasb@Judges:18:5" @But the men of Gibeah rose up against me and surrounded the house at night because of me. They intended to kill me; instead, they ravished my concubine so that she died.

nasb@Judges:18:10" @And we will take 10 men out of 100 throughout the tribes of Israel, and 100 out of 1,000, and 1,000 out of 10,000 to supply food for the people, that when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin, they may punish them for all the disgraceful acts that they have committed in Israel."

nasb@Judges:18:11 @Thus all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, united as one man.

nasb@Judges:18:12 @Then the tribes of Israel sent men through the entire tribe of Benjamin, saying, "What is this wickedness that has taken place among you?

nasb@Judges:18:13" @Now then, deliver up the men, the worthless fellows in Gibeah, that we may put them to death and remove this wickedness from Israel." But the sons of Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brothers, the sons of Israel.

nasb@Judges:18:15 @From the cities on that day the sons of Benjamin were numbered, 26,000 men who draw the sword, besides the inhabitants of Gibeah who were numbered, 700 choice men.

nasb@Judges:18:16 @Out of all these people 700 choice men were left-handed; each one could sling a stone at a hair and not miss.

nasb@Judges:18:17 @Then the men of Israel besides Benjamin were numbered, 400,000 men who draw the sword; all these were men of war.

nasb@Judges:18:20 @The men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin, and the men of Israel arrayed for battle against them at Gibeah.

nasb@Judges:18:21 @Then the sons of Benjamin came out of Gibeah and felled to the ground on that day 22,000 men of Israel.

nasb@Judges:18:22 @But the people, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves and arrayed for battle again in the place where they had arrayed themselves the first day.

nasb@Judges:18:25 @Benjamin went out against them from Gibeah the second day and felled to the ground again 18,000 men of the sons of Israel; all these drew the sword.

nasb@Judges:18:29 @So Israel set men in ambush around Gibeah.

nasb@Judges:18:31 @The sons of Benjamin went out against the people and were drawn away from the city, and they began to strike and kill some of the people as at other times, on the highways, one of which goes up to Bethel and the other to Gibeah, and in the field, about thirty men of Israel.

nasb@Judges:18:33 @Then all the men of Israel arose from their place and arrayed themselves at Baal-tamar; and the men of Israel in ambush broke out of their place, even out of Maareh-geba.

nasb@Judges:18:34 @When ten thousand choice men from all Israel came against Gibeah, the battle became fierce; but Benjamin did not know that disaster was close to them.

nasb@Judges:18:35 @And the LORD struck Benjamin before Israel, so that the sons of Israel destroyed 25,100 men of Benjamin that day, all who draw the sword.

nasb@Judges:18:36 @So the sons of Benjamin saw that they were defeated. When the men of Israel gave ground to Benjamin because they relied on the men in ambush whom they had set against Gibeah,

nasb@Judges:18:37 @the men in ambush hurried and rushed against Gibeah; the men in ambush also deployed and struck all the city with the edge of the sword.

nasb@Judges:18:38 @Now the appointed sign between the men of Israel and the men in ambush was that they would make a great cloud of smoke rise from the city.

nasb@Judges:18:39 @Then the men of Israel turned in the battle, and Benjamin began to strike and kill about thirty men of Israel, for they said, "Surely they are defeated before us, as in the first battle."

nasb@Judges:18:41 @Then the men of Israel turned, and the men of Benjamin were terrified; for they saw that disaster was close to them.

nasb@Judges:18:42 @Therefore, they turned their backs before the men of Israel toward the direction of the wilderness, but the battle overtook them while those who came out of the cities destroyed them in the midst of them.

nasb@Judges:18:44 @Thus 18,000 men of Benjamin fell; all these were valiant warriors.

nasb@Judges:18:46 @So all of Benjamin who fell that day were 25,000 men who draw the sword; all these were valiant warriors.

nasb@Judges:18:47 @But 600 men turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, and they remained at the rock of Rimmon four months.

nasb@Judges:18:48 @The men of Israel then turned back against the sons of Benjamin and struck them with the edge of the sword, both the entire city with the cattle and all that they found; they also set on fire all the cities which they found.

nasb@Judges:19:1 @Now the men of Israel had sworn in Mizpah, saying, "None of us shall give his daughter to Benjamin in marriage."

nasb@Judges:19:10 @And the congregation sent 12,000 of the valiant warriors there, and commanded them, saying, "Go and strike the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead with the edge of the sword, with the women and the little ones.

nasb@Judges:19:14 @Benjamin returned at that time, and they gave them the women whom they had kept alive from the women of Jabesh-gilead; yet they were not enough for them.

nasb@Judges:19:16 @Then the elders of the congregation said, "What shall we do for wives for those who are left, since the women are destroyed out of Benjamin?"

nasb@Ruth:1:4 @They took for themselves Moabite women as wives; the name of the one was Orpah and the name of the other Ruth. And they lived there about ten years.

nasb@Ruth:1:19 @So they both went until they came to Bethlehem. And when they had come to Bethlehem, all the city was stirred because of them, and the women said, "Is this Naomi?"

nasb@Ruth:2:10 @Then he said, " May you be blessed of the LORD, my daughter. You have shown your last kindness to be better than the first by not going after young men, whether poor or rich.

nasb@Ruth:3:2 @He took ten men of the elders of the city and said, "Sit down here." So they sat down.

nasb@Ruth:3:14 @Then the women said to Naomi, "Blessed is the LORD who has not left you without a redeemer today, and may his name become famous in Israel.

nasb@Ruth:3:17 @The neighbor women gave him a name, saying, "A son has been born to Naomi!" So they named him Obed. He is the father of Jesse, the father of David.

nasb@1Samuel:2:12 @Now the sons of Eli were worthless men; they did not know the LORD

nasb@1Samuel:2:17 @Thus the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD, for the men despised the offering of the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:2:22 @Now Eli was very old; and he heard all that his sons were doing to all Israel, and how they lay with the women who served at the doorway of the tent of meeting.

nasb@1Samuel:2:26 @Now the boy Samuel was growing in stature and in favor both with the LORD and with men.

nasb@1Samuel:4:2 @The Philistines drew up in battle array to meet Israel. When the battle spread, Israel was defeated before the Philistines who killed about four thousand men on the battlefield.

nasb@1Samuel:5:7 @When the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, "The ark of the God of Israel must not remain with us, for His hand is severe on us and on Dagon our god."

nasb@1Samuel:5:9 @After they had brought it around, the hand of the LORD was against the city with very great confusion; and He smote the men of the city, both young and old, so that tumors broke out on them.

nasb@1Samuel:6:10 @Then the men did so, and took two milch cows and hitched them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home.

nasb@1Samuel:6:15 @The Levites took down the ark of the LORD and the box that was with it, in which were the articles of gold, and put them on the large stone; and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices that day to the LORD.

nasb@1Samuel:7:11 @The men of Israel went out of Mizpah and pursued the Philistines, and struck them down as far as below Beth-car.

nasb@1Samuel:8:11 @He said, " This will be the procedure of the king who will reign over you- he will take your sons and place them for himself in his chariots and among his horsemen and they will run before his chariots.

nasb@1Samuel:8:12" @ He will appoint for himself commanders of thousands and of fifties, and some to do his plowing and to reap his harvest and to make his weapons of war and equipment for his chariots.

nasb@1Samuel:8:22 @The LORD said to Samuel, " Listen to their voice and appoint them a king." So Samuel said to the men of Israel, "Go every man to his city."

nasb@1Samuel:9:11 @As they went up the slope to the city, they found young women going out to draw water and said to them, "Is the seer here?"

nasb@1Samuel:9:22 @Then Samuel took Saul and his servant and brought them into the hall and gave them a place at the head of those who were invited, who were about thirty men.

nasb@1Samuel:9:2" @When you go from me today, then you will find two men close to Rachel's tomb in the territory of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to you, ' The donkeys which you went to look for have been found.

nasb@1Samuel:9:3" @Then you will go on further from there, and you will come as far as the oak of Tabor, and there three men going up to God at Bethel will meet you, one carrying three young goats, another carrying three loaves of bread, and another carrying a jug of wine;

nasb@1Samuel:9:16 @So Saul said to his uncle, " He told us plainly that the donkeys had been found." But he did not tell him about the matter of the kingdom which Samuel had mentioned.

nasb@1Samuel:9:26 @Saul also went to his house at Gibeah; and the valiant men whose hearts God had touched went with him.

nasb@1Samuel:9:27 @But certain worthless men said, "How can this one deliver usNULL" And they despised him and did not bring him any present. But he kept silent.

nasb@1Samuel:10:1 @Now Nahash the Ammonite came up and besieged Jabesh-gilead; and all the men of Jabesh said to Nahash, "Make a covenant with us and we will serve you."

nasb@1Samuel:10:5 @Now behold, Saul was coming from the field behind the oxen, and he said, "What is the matter with the people that they weep?" So they related to him the words of the men of Jabesh.

nasb@1Samuel:10:8 @He numbered them in Bezek; and the sons of Israel were 300,000, and the men of Judah 30,000.

nasb@1Samuel:10:9 @They said to the messengers who had come, "Thus you shall say to the men of Jabesh-gilead, 'Tomorrow, by the time the sun is hot, you will have deliverance.'" So the messengers went and told the men of Jabesh; and they were glad.

nasb@1Samuel:10:12 @Then the people said to Samuel, " Who is he that said, 'Shall Saul reign over us?' Bring the men, that we may put them to death."

nasb@1Samuel:10:15 @So all the people went to Gilgal, and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal. There they also offered sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD; and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.

nasb@1Samuel:11:2 @Now Saul chose for himself 3,000 men of Israel, of which 2,000 were with Saul in Michmash and in the hill country of Bethel, while 1,000 were with Jonathan at Gibeah of Benjamin. But he sent away the rest of the people, each to his tent.

nasb@1Samuel:11:5 @Now the Philistines assembled to fight with Israel, 30,000 chariots and 6,000 horsemen, and people like the sand which is on the seashore in abundance; and they came up and camped in Michmash, east of Beth-aven.

nasb@1Samuel:11:6 @When the men of Israel saw that they were in a strait (for the people were hard-pressed), then the people hid themselves in caves, in thickets, in cliffs, in cellars, and in pits.

nasb@1Samuel:11:13 @Samuel said to Saul, " You have acted foolishly; you have not kept the commandment of the LORD your God, which He commanded you, for now the LORD would have established your kingdom over Israel forever.

nasb@1Samuel:11:15 @Then Samuel arose and went up from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. And Saul numbered the people who were present with him, about six hundred men.

nasb@1Samuel:12:2 @Saul was staying in the outskirts of Gibeah under the pomegranate tree which is in Migron. And the people who were with him were about six hundred men,

nasb@1Samuel:12:8 @Then Jonathan said, " Behold, we will cross over to the men and reveal ourselves to them.

nasb@1Samuel:12:12 @So the men of the garrison hailed Jonathan and his armor bearer and said, "Come up to us and we will tell you something." And Jonathan said to his armor bearer, "Come up after me, for the LORD has given them into the hands of Israel."

nasb@1Samuel:12:14 @That first slaughter which Jonathan and his armor bearer made was about twenty men within about half a furrow in an acre of land.

nasb@1Samuel:12:16 @Now Saul's watchmen in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and behold, the multitude melted away; and they went here and there.

nasb@1Samuel:12:22 @When all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves in the hill country of Ephraim heard that the Philistines had fled, even they also pursued them closely in the battle.

nasb@1Samuel:12:24 @Now the men of Israel were hard-pressed on that day, for Saul had put the people under oath, saying, "Cursed be the man who eats food before evening, and until I have avenged myself on my enemies." So none of the people tasted food.

nasb@1Samuel:12:47 @Now when Saul had taken the kingdom over Israel, he fought against all his enemies on every side, against Moab, the sons of Ammon, Edom, the kings of Zobah, and the Philistines; and wherever he turned, he inflicted punishment.

nasb@1Samuel:12:4 @Then Saul summoned the people and numbered them in Telaim, 200,000 foot soldiers and 10,000 men of Judah.

nasb@1Samuel:12:12 @Samuel rose early in the morning to meet Saul; and it was told Samuel, saying, "Saul came to Carmel, and behold, he set up a monument for himself, then turned and proceeded on down to Gilgal."

nasb@1Samuel:12:33 @But Samuel said, " As your sword has made women childless, so shall your mother be childless among women." And Samuel hewed Agag to pieces before the LORD at Gilgal.

nasb@1Samuel:13:18 @Then one of the young men said, "Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite who is a skillful musician, a mighty man of valor, a warrior, one prudent in speech, and a handsome man; and the LORD is with him."

nasb@1Samuel:14:2 @Saul and the men of Israel were gathered and camped in the valley of Elah, and drew up in battle array to encounter the Philistines.

nasb@1Samuel:14:12 @Now David was the son of the Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, whose name was Jesse, and he had eight sons. And Jesse was old in the days of Saul, advanced in years among men.

nasb@1Samuel:14:19" @For Saul and they and all the men of Israel are in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines."

nasb@1Samuel:14:24 @When all the men of Israel saw the man, they fled from him and were greatly afraid.

nasb@1Samuel:14:25 @The men of Israel said, "Have you seen this man who is coming up? Surely he is coming up to defy Israel. And it will be that the king will enrich the man who kills him with great riches and will give him his daughter and make his father's house free in Israel."

nasb@1Samuel:14:26 @Then David spoke to the men who were standing by him, saying, "What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should taunt the armies of the living God?"

nasb@1Samuel:14:28 @Now Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab's anger burned against David and he said, "Why have you come down? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your insolence and the wickedness of your heart; for you have come down in order to see the battle."

nasb@1Samuel:14:38 @Then Saul clothed David with his garments and put a bronze helmet on his head, and he clothed him with armor.

nasb@1Samuel:14:52 @The men of Israel and Judah arose and shouted and pursued the Philistines as far as the valley, and to the gates of Ekron. And the slain Philistines lay along the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath and Ekron.

nasb@1Samuel:15:5 @So David went out wherever Saul sent him, and prospered; and Saul set him over the men of war. And it was pleasing in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants.

nasb@1Samuel:15:6 @It happened as they were coming, when David returned from killing the Philistine, that the women came out of all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tambourines, with joy and with musical instruments.

nasb@1Samuel:15:7 @The women sang as they played, and said, " Saul has slain his thousands, And David his ten thousands."

nasb@1Samuel:15:27 @David rose up and went, he and his men, and struck down two hundred men among the Philistines. Then David brought their foreskins, and they gave them in full number to the king, that he might become the king's son-in-law. So Saul gave him Michal his daughter for a wife.

nasb@1Samuel:17:23" @ As for the agreement of which you and I have spoken, behold, the LORD is between you and me forever."

nasb@1Samuel:17:35 @Now it came about in the morning that Jonathan went out into the field for the appointment with David, and a little lad was with him.

nasb@1Samuel:18:2 @David said to Ahimelech the priest, "The king has commissioned me with a matter and has said to me, ' Let no one know anything about the matter on which I am sending you and with which I have commissioned you; and I have directed the young men to a certain place.'

nasb@1Samuel:18:4 @The priest answered David and said, "There is no ordinary bread on hand, but there is consecrated bread; if only the young men have kept themselves from women."

nasb@1Samuel:18:5 @David answered the priest and said to him, " Surely women have been kept from us as previously when I set out and the vessels of the young men were holy, though it was an ordinary journey; how much more then today will their vessels be holy?"

nasb@1Samuel:18:15" @Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this one to act the madman in my presenceNULL Shall this one come into my houseNULL"

nasb@1Samuel:19:2 @Everyone who was in distress, and everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered to him; and he became captain over them. Now there were about four hundred men with him.

nasb@1Samuel:19:6 @Then Saul heard that David and the men who were with him had been discovered. Now Saul was sitting in Gibeah, under the tamarisk tree on the height with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were standing around him.

nasb@1Samuel:19:18 @Then the king said to Doeg, "You turn around and attack the priests." And Doeg the Edomite turned around and attacked the priests, and he killed that day eighty-five men who wore the linen ephod.

nasb@1Samuel:19:19 @And he struck Nob the city of the priests with the edge of the sword, both men and women, children and infants; also oxen, donkeys, and sheep he struck with the edge of the sword.

nasb@1Samuel:20:3 @But David's men said to him, "Behold, we are afraid here in Judah. How much more then if we go to Keilah against the ranks of the Philistines?"

nasb@1Samuel:20:5 @So David and his men went to Keilah and fought with the Philistines; and he led away their livestock and struck them with a great slaughter. Thus David delivered the inhabitants of Keilah.

nasb@1Samuel:20:8 @So Saul summoned all the people for war, to go down to Keilah to besiege David and his men.

nasb@1Samuel:20:11" @Will the men of Keilah surrender me into his hand? Will Saul come down just as Your servant has heard? O LORD God of Israel, I pray, tell Your servant." And the LORD said, "He will come down."

nasb@1Samuel:20:12 @Then David said, "Will the men of Keilah surrender me and my men into the hand of Saul?" And the LORD said, " They will surrender you."

nasb@1Samuel:20:13 @Then David and his men, about six hundred, arose and departed from Keilah, and they went wherever they could go. When it was told Saul that David had escaped from Keilah, he gave up the pursuit.

nasb@1Samuel:20:24 @Then they arose and went to Ziph before Saul. Now David and his men were in the wilderness of Maon, in the Arabah to the south of Jeshimon.

nasb@1Samuel:20:25 @When Saul and his men went to seek him, they told David, and he came down to the rock and stayed in the wilderness of Maon. And when Saul heard it, he pursued David in the wilderness of Maon.

nasb@1Samuel:20:26 @Saul went on one side of the mountain, and David and his men on the other side of the mountain; and David was hurrying to get away from Saul, for Saul and his men were surrounding David and his men to seize them.

nasb@1Samuel:21:2 @Then Saul took three thousand chosen men from all Israel and went to seek David and his men in front of the Rocks of the Wild Goats.

nasb@1Samuel:21:3 @He came to the sheepfolds on the way, where there was a cave; and Saul went in to relieve himself. Now David and his men were sitting in the inner recesses of the cave.

nasb@1Samuel:21:4 @The men of David said to him, "Behold, this is the day of which the LORD said to you, 'Behold; I am about to give your enemy into your hand, and you shall do to him as it seems good to you.'" Then David arose and cut off the edge of Saul's robe secretly.

nasb@1Samuel:21:6 @So he said to his men, " Far be it from me because of the LORD that I should do this thing to my lord, the LORD'S anointed, to stretch out my hand against him, since he is the LORD'S anointed."

nasb@1Samuel:21:7 @David persuaded his men with these words and did not allow them to rise up against Saul. And Saul arose, left the cave, and went on his way.

nasb@1Samuel:21:9 @David said to Saul, "Why do you listen to the words of men, saying, 'Behold, David seeks to harm you'?

nasb@1Samuel:21:22 @David swore to Saul. And Saul went to his home, but David and his men went up to the stronghold.

nasb@1Samuel:22:5 @So David sent ten young men; and David said to the young men, "Go up to Carmel, visit Nabal and greet him in my name;

nasb@1Samuel:22:8 @'Ask your young men and they will tell you. Therefore let my young men find favor in your eyes, for we have come on a festive day. Please give whatever you find at hand to your servants and to your son David.'"

nasb@1Samuel:22:9 @When David's young men came, they spoke to Nabal according to all these words in David's name; then they waited.

nasb@1Samuel:22:11" @Shall I then take my bread and my water and my meat that I have slaughtered for my shearers, and give it to men whose origin I do not know?"

nasb@1Samuel:22:12 @So David's young men retraced their way and went back; and they came and told him according to all these words.

nasb@1Samuel:22:13 @David said to his men, "Each of you gird on his sword." So each man girded on his sword. And David also girded on his sword, and about four hundred men went up behind David while two hundred stayed with the baggage.

nasb@1Samuel:22:14 @But one of the young men told Abigail, Nabal's wife, saying, "Behold, David sent messengers from the wilderness to greet our master, and he scorned them.

nasb@1Samuel:22:15" @Yet the men were very good to us, and we were not insulted, nor did we miss anything as long as we went about with them, while we were in the fields.

nasb@1Samuel:22:19 @She said to her young men, " Go on before me; behold, I am coming after you." But she did not tell her husband Nabal.

nasb@1Samuel:22:20 @It came about as she was riding on her donkey and coming down by the hidden part of the mountain, that behold, David and his men were coming down toward her; so she met them.

nasb@1Samuel:22:25" @Please do not let my lord pay attention to this worthless man, Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name and folly is with him; but I your maidservant did not see the young men of my lord whom you sent.

nasb@1Samuel:22:33 @and blessed be your discernment, and blessed be you, who have kept me this day from bloodshed and from avenging myself by my own hand.

nasb@1Samuel:23:2 @So Saul arose and went down to the wilderness of Ziph, having with him three thousand chosen men of Israel, to search for David in the wilderness of Ziph.

nasb@1Samuel:23:19" @Now therefore, please let my lord the king listen to the words of his servant. If the LORD has stirred you up against me, let Him accept an offering; but if it is men, cursed are they before the LORD, for they have driven me out today so that I would have no attachment with the inheritance of the LORD, saying, 'Go, serve other gods.'

nasb@1Samuel:23:22 @David replied, "Behold the spear of the king! Now let one of the young men come over and take it.

nasb@1Samuel:24:3 @And David lived with Achish at Gath, he and his men, each with his household, even David with his two wives, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail the Carmelitess, Nabal's widow.

nasb@1Samuel:24:8 @Now David and his men went up and raided the Geshurites and the Girzites and the Amalekites; for they were the inhabitants of the land from ancient times, as you come to Shur even as far as the land of Egypt.

nasb@1Samuel:25:1 @Now it came about in those days that the Philistines gathered their armed camps for war, to fight against Israel. And Achish said to David, "Know assuredly that you will go out with me in the camp, you and your men."

nasb@1Samuel:25:3 @Now Samuel was dead, and all Israel had lamented him and buried him in Ramah, his own city. And Saul had removed from the land those who were mediums and spiritists.

nasb@1Samuel:25:8 @Then Saul disguised himself by putting on other clothes, and went, he and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night; and he said, " Conjure up for me, please, and bring up for me whom I shall name to you."

nasb@1Samuel:25:10 @Saul vowed to her by the LORD, saying, "As the LORD lives, no punishment shall come upon you for this thing."

nasb@1Samuel:26:4 @But the commanders of the Philistines were angry with him, and the commanders of the Philistines said to him, "Make the man go back, that he may return to his place where you have assigned him, and do not let him go down to battle with us, or in the battle he may become an adversary to us. For with what could this man make himself acceptable to his lord? Would it not be with the heads of these men?

nasb@1Samuel:26:11 @So David arose early, he and his men, to depart in the morning to return to the land of the Philistines. And the Philistines went up to Jezreel.

nasb@1Samuel:27:1 @Then it happened when David and his men came to Ziklag on the third day, that the Amalekites had made a raid on the Negev and on Ziklag, and had overthrown Ziklag and burned it with fire;

nasb@Esther:2:15 @Now when the turn of Esther, the daughter of Abihail the uncle of Mordecai who had taken her as his daughter, came to go in to the king, she did not request anything except what Hegai, the king's eunuch who was in charge of the women, advised.

nasb@Esther:7:4 @for we have been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed, to be killed and to be annihilated. Now if we had only been sold as slaves, men and women, I would have remained silent, for the trouble would not be commensurate with the annoyance to the king."
