gltv@1Samuel:1:11 @ And she vowed a vow, and said, O Jehovah of hosts, if You will certainly look upon the affliction of Your handmaid, and shall remember me, and not forget Your handmaid, and shall give to Your maidservant a man-child, then I will give him to Jehovah all the days of his life; and a razor shall not go up on his head.

gltv@1Samuel:2:14 @ even he stuck it into the pan, or kettle, or caldron, or pot; all that the hook brought up, the priest took for himself. So they did to all Israel who came in there to Shiloh.

gltv@1Samuel:2:15 @ Yea, before they made the fat to smoke, then the priest's servant came in. And he said to the man who was sacrificing, Give meat to roast for the priest; and he will not take boiled meat from you, but raw.

gltv@Ezra:7:13 @ From me was made a decree that any one of the people of Israel, and their priests and Levites in my kingdom who volunteers to go up to Jerusalem, may go with you;

gltv@Ezra:7:14 @ since you have been sent by the king, and by his seven counselors to ask about Judah and Jerusalem, according to the law of your God in your hand;

gltv@Ezra:7:19 @ Also the vessels which are given to you for the service of the house of your God, deliver before the God of Jerusalem.

gltv@Ezra:7:20 @ And the rest of the needs of the house of your God which falls to you to give, give it out of the king's treasure house.

gltv@Ezra:7:21 @ And I, Artaxerxes the king, made a decree to all the treasurers who are Beyond the River, that whatever the priest, the scribe of the law of the God of Heaven, shall ask of you, it shall be done exactly,

gltv@Ezra:7:22 @ to a hundred talents of silver, and to a hundred kors of wheat, and to a hundred baths of wine, and to a hundred baths of oil, and salt without stipulation.

gltv@Ezra:7:25 @ And you, Ezra, according to the wisdom of your God in your hand, you appoint judges and magistrates who may judge all the people who are Beyond the River; all who know the laws of your God; and those who do not know, you cause to know.

gltv@Ezra:7:26 @ And whoever will not do the law of your God, and the law of the king, let judgment be executed diligently on him, whether to death, or to exile, or to confiscation of goods, or imprisonment.

gltv@Ezra:7:27 @ Blessed be Jehovah, the God of our fathers, who has put this in the king's heart, to beautify the house of Jehovah in Jerusalem.

gltv@Ezra:7:28 @ And He has extended mercy to me before the king and his counselors, and before all the king's mighty leaders. And I was made strong, as the hand of Jehovah my God was on me. And I gathered out of Israel chief men to go up with me.

gltv@Ezra:8:15 @ And I gathered them to the river which runs to Ahava. And we camped there in tents three days. And I considered the people and the priests, and did not find there any of the sons of Levi.

gltv@Ezra:8:17 @ And I sent them with command to Iddo, the chief of the place Casiphia, and I put in their mouth words to say to Iddo, to his brothers the temple-slaves, at the place Casiphia; that they should bring to us ministers for the house of our God.

gltv@Ezra:8:21 @ Then I called a fast there at the river Ahava, so that we might humble ourselves before our God, in order to seek from Him a right way for us, and for our little ones, and for all our goods.

gltv@Ezra:8:22 @ For I was ashamed to ask of the king troops and horsemen to help us against the enemy of the way, because we had spoken to the king, saying, The hand of our God is on all those who seek Him for good; but His power and His wrath are against all those who forsake Him.

gltv@Ezra:8:23 @ So we fasted and prayed to our God for good. And He was pleased to hear us.

gltv@Ezra:8:25 @ And I weighed to them the silver, and the gold, and the vessels, the offering of the house of our God, which the king and his counselors, and his lords, and all Israel who were there had lifted up.

gltv@Ezra:8:26 @ I even weighed into their hands six hundred and fifty talents of silver, and silver vessels of a hundred talents, a hundred talents of gold,

gltv@Ezra:8:28 @ And I said to them, You are holy to Jehovah, and the articles also are holy. And the silver and the gold are a free gift to Jehovah, the God of your fathers.

gltv@Ezra:8:31 @ And we departed from the river Ahava on the twelfth of the first month, to go to Jerusalem. And the hand of our God was on us, and He delivered us from the hand of the enemy, and ambushers along the way.

gltv@Ezra:8:32 @ And we came to Jerusalem, and remained there three days.

gltv@Ezra:8:35 @ Those who came out of the captivity of the sons of exile offered burnt offerings to the God of Israel: twelve young bulls for all Israel, ninety six rams, seventy seven lambs, twelve he goats for a sin offering. All was a burnt offering to Jehovah.

gltv@Ezra:8:36 @ And they delivered the king's edicts to the king's satraps, and to the governors of the province Beyond the River. And they supported the people and the house of God.

gltv@Ezra:9:1 @ And at the end of these things, the leaders came near to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, as to their idolatries, even the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.

gltv@Ezra:9:3 @ And when I heard this thing, I tore my garments and my robe, and plucked off the hair of my head and of my beard, and sat down stunned.

gltv@Ezra:9:4 @ Then everyone who trembled at the words of the God of Israel were gathered to me, because of the perfidy of the exiles. And I remained stunned until the evening offering.

gltv@Ezra:9:5 @ And at the evening offering I rose up from my fasting, and with my garment and my robe torn, I even fell on my knees and spread out my hands to Jehovah my God.

gltv@Ezra:9:6 @ And I said, O my God, I am ashamed and wounded to lift up my face to You, O my God. For our iniquities have increased over our head, and our guiltiness has grown to the heavens.

gltv@Ezra:9:7 @ Since the days of our fathers we have been in great guilt until this day. And for our iniquities we, our kings, our priests, have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and to plunder, and to shame of faces to this day.

gltv@Ezra:9:8 @ And now, for a little time grace has been shown from Jehovah our God to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in His holy place, so that our God may enlighten our eyes and give us a little reviving in our bondage.

gltv@Ezra:9:9 @ For we were slaves, yet our God has not left us in our bondage, but has given mercy to us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to raise up the house of our God, and to make stand its ruins, and to give to us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.

gltv@Ezra:9:12 @ And now do not give your daughters to their sons, and do not take their daughters to your sons, or seek their peace, or their wealth forever, so that you may be strong and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your sons forever.

gltv@Ezra:9:15 @ O Jehovah the God of Israel, You are righteous. For we are left as escapees, as it is this day. Behold, we are before You in our guilt, for none is able to stand before You because of this.

gltv@Ezra:10:1 @ And while was praying and making his confession, weeping and casting himself down before the house of God, a very great congregation of men and women and children gathered to him out of Israel. For the people wept with a great weeping.

gltv@Ezra:10:2 @ And Shechaniah the son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, answered and said to Ezra, We have sinned against our God, and have dwelt with foreign women from the peoples of the land. Yet now there is hope in Israel concerning this thing.

gltv@Ezra:10:3 @ And now let us cut a covenant with our God to put away all the women, and those born of them, according to the counsel of the Lord and of those who tremble at the command of our God. And let it be done according to the law.

gltv@Ezra:10:5 @ Then rose up and made the chief priests, the Levites, and all Israel to swear that they would do according to this word. And they swore.

gltv@Ezra:10:6 @ Then rose up from before the house of God and went into the room of Johanan the son of Eliashib. And he went there, and he did not eat food, nor did he drink, for he mourned for the perfidy of the exiles.

gltv@Ezra:10:7 @ And they passed a call throughout Judah and Jerusalem to all the sons of the exile, to assemble at Jerusalem;

gltv@Ezra:10:8 @ and that whoever would not come within three days according to the counsel of the leaders and the elders, all his property would be forfeited, and he would be excluded from the congregation of the exiles.

gltv@Ezra:10:9 @ Then all the men of Judah and Benjamin gathered to Jerusalem within three days. It was the ninth month, on the twentieth of the month. And all the people sat in the plaza of the house of God, trembling because of the matter, and because of the heavy rain.

gltv@Ezra:10:10 @ And the priest stood up and said to them, You have trespassed and have dwelt with foreign women, to increase the guilt of Israel.

gltv@Ezra:10:11 @ And now make confession to Jehovah God of your fathers and do His will. And separate yourselves from the peoples of the land and from the foreign women.

gltv@Ezra:10:12 @ Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice Right! According to your word it is on us to do.

gltv@Ezra:10:13 @ But the people are many, and it is a time of heavy rain. And we are not able to stand outside. And the work is not of one or two days. For we have greatly sinned in this thing.

gltv@Ezra:10:16 @ And the sons of the exile did so. And the priest with men, heads of the fathers, according to the house of their fathers, and all of them by names, were separated. And they sat down in the first day of the tenth month to examine the matter.

gltv@Nehemiah:1:3 @ And they said to me, The remnant that are left of the captivity there in the province are in great evil and shame. The wall of Jerusalem also is broken down, and its gates are burned with fire.

gltv@Nehemiah:1:9 @ But if you will turn to Me and keep My commandments, and do them, though you were cast out to the outermost part of the heavens, yet I will gather them from there, and will bring them to the place that I have chosen, to set My name there.

gltv@Nehemiah:1:11 @ O Lord, I beg You, let Your ear be open to the prayer of Your servant, and to the prayer of Your servants who delight to fear Your name. And I beg You, bless Your servant today and grant him mercy before this man. For I was cupbearer to the king.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:1 @ And it happened in the month Nisan, in the twentieth year of Artaxerxes the king, that wine was before him. And I took the wine and gave to the king. And I had never been sad to his face.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:2 @ And the king said to me, Why is your face sad, since you are not sick? This is nothing but sorrow of heart. Then I was very much afraid.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:3 @ And I said to the king, let the king live forever. Why should not my face be sad when the place of my fathers' tombs, the City, lies waste and its gates are burned with fire?

gltv@Nehemiah:2:4 @ Then the king said to me, For what do you ask? So I prayed to the God of Heaven,

gltv@Nehemiah:2:5 @ and I said to the king, If it please the king, and if your servant has found favor in your sight, that you would send me to Judah to the city of my fathers' tombs, so that I might build it.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:6 @ And the king said to me, the queen also sitting beside him, For how long shall your journey be? And when will you return? So it pleased the king, and he sent me; and I set him a time.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:7 @ An I said to the king, If it is good to the king, let letters be given me to the governors Beyond the River, so that they may let me go through until I come to Judah;

gltv@Nehemiah:2:8 @ also a letter to Asaph the keeper of the king's forest, so that he may give me timber to make beams for the gates of the palace which is for the house, and for the city wall, and for the house into which I shall enter. And the king granted it to me, according to the good hand of my God on me.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:9 @ Then I came to the governors of the province Beyond the River, and gave them the king's letters. And the king had sent army commanders and horsemen with me.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:10 @ And Sanballat the Horonite and Tobiah the servant the Ammonite, heard. And it grieved them greatly that a man had come to seek the good of the sons of Israel.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:11 @ So I came to Jerusalem and was there three days.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:12 @ And I rose up in the night, I and a few men with me. And I told no man what my God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem. And there was no animal with me except the animal that I rode on.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:13 @ And I went out by night by the Valley Gate, even before the Jackal Fountain, and to the Dung Gate. And I examined the walls of Jerusalem which were broken down, and its gates which were burned with fire.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:14 @ Then I passed on to the Fountain Gate, and to the King's Pool. But there was no place for the animal that was under me to pass.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:15 @ Then I went up in the night by the torrent, and examined the wall, and turned back, and entered by the Valley Gate, and returned.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:16 @ And the rulers did not know where I had gone, or what I was doing. Nor had I told it yet to the Jews, or to the priests, or to the nobles, or to the rulers, or to the rest that did the work.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:17 @ Then I said to them, You see the evil that we are in, how Jerusalem is wasted, and its gates are burned with fire. Come and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, so that we may no longer be a reproach.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:18 @ Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good on me, and also the king's words that he had spoken to me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they made their hands strong for good.

gltv@Nehemiah:2:19 @ But when Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah the servant, the Ammonite, and Geshem the Arabian, heard, then they mocked us and despised us. And they said, What is this that you are doing? Will you rebel against the king?

gltv@Nehemiah:2:20 @ Then I answered them and said to them, The God of Heaven, He will prosper us, and we His servants will arise and build. But you have no portion or right or memorial in Jerusalem.

gltv@Nehemiah:3:1 @ And Eliashib the high priest rose up with his brothers the priests. And they built the Sheep Gate. They sanctified it and set up its doors. Even to the Tower of Meah they sanctified it, to the Tower of Hananeel.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:9 @ But we made our prayer to our God, and set a watch against them day and night, because of them.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:10 @ And Judah said, The strength of the burden carriers is weakening, and there is much rubbish, so that we are not able to build the wall.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:11 @ And our foes have said, They shall not know or see until we come in the middle of them and kill them, and cause the work to cease.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:12 @ And it happened when the Jews who lived near them came in, they said to us ten times, From all places where you shall return, they will be against us.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:13 @ So I stationed from the lowest parts of the place, from the back of the wall, in the higher places, even I stationed the people according to their families, with their swords, their spears, and their bows.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:14 @ And I saw. And I rose up and said to the nobles and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, who is great and terrible, and fight for your brothers, your sons, and your daughters, your wives, and your houses.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:19 @ And I said to the nobles and to the rulers, and to the rest of the people, The work is great and large, and we are separated on the wall, far from one another.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:20 @ In whatever place you hear the sound of the ram's horn, gather there to us. Our God will fight for us.

gltv@Nehemiah:4:22 @ Likewise at the same time I said to the people, Let each man with his servant stay inside Jerusalem, so that in the night they may be a guard to us, and labor in the day.

gltv@Nehemiah:5:5 @ yet now our flesh is like the flesh of our brothers; as their sons, so are our sons; and, behold, we are bringing our sons and our daughters into bondage, to be slaves; yea, there are some of our daughters brought into bondage.

gltv@Nehemiah:5:13 @ Also I shook my lap, and I said, So may God shake out every man from his house and from his labor who does not do this thing; even may he be shaken out this way and emptied. And all the congregation said, Amen, and praised Jehovah. And the people did according to this thing.

gltv@Nehemiah:5:14 @ And from the time that I was chosen to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even to the thirty second year of Artaxerxes the king, twelve years, I and my brothers did not eat the bread of the governor.

gltv@Nehemiah:5:15 @ The former governors that had been before me were too heavy on the people, and had taken bread and wine from them, besides forty shekels of silver. Yes, even their servants bore rule over the people. But I did not do this, because of the fear of God.
