dourh@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:

dourh@Joshua:1:3 @ I will deliver to you every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, as I have said to Moses.

dourh@Joshua:1:4 @ From the desert and from Libanus unto the great river Euphrates, all the land of the Hethites unto the great sea toward the going; down of the sun, shall be your border.

dourh@Joshua:1:6 @ Take courage, and be strong: for thou shalt divide by lot to this people the land, for which I swore to their fathers, that I would deliver it to them.

dourh@Joshua:1:7 @ Take courage therefore, and be very valiant: that thou mayst observe and do all the law, which Moses my servant hath commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayst understand all things which thou dost.

dourh@Joshua:1:8 @ Let not the book of this law depart from thy mouth: but thou shalt meditate on it day and night, that thou mayst observe and do all things that are written in it: then shalt thou direct thy way, and understand it.

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:1:14 @ Your wives, and children, and cattle shall remain in the land which Moses gave you on this side of the Jordan: but pass you over armed before your brethren, all of you that are strong of hand, and fight for them,

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:1:16 @ And they made answer to Josue, and said: All that thou hast commanded us we will do; and whithersoever thou shalt send us, we will go.

dourh@Joshua:1:18 @ He that shall gainsay thy mouth, and not obey all thy words, that thou shalt command him, let him die: only take thou courage, and do manfully.

dourh@Joshua:2:1 @ And Josue the son of Nun sent from Setim two men, to spy secretly: and said to them: Go, and view the land and the city of Jericho. n They went and entered into the house of a woman that was a harlot named Rahab, and lodged with her.

dourh@Joshua:2:3 @ And the king of Jericho sent to Rahab, saying: Bring forth the men that came to thee, and are entered into thy house: for they are spies, and are come to view all the land.

dourh@Joshua:2:5 @ And at the time of shutting the gate in the dark, they also went out together. I know not whither they are gone: pursue after them quickly, and you will overtake them.

dourh@Joshua:2:7 @ Now they that were sent, pursued after them, by the way that leadeth to the fords of the Jordan: and as soon as they were gone out, the gate was presently shut.

dourh@Joshua:2:8 @ The men that were hidden were not yet asleep, when behold the woman went up to them, and said:

dourh@Joshua:2:10 @ 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.

dourh@Joshua:2:11 @ 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.

dourh@Joshua:2:12 @ We have heard that

dourh@Joshua:2:13 @ 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.

dourh@Joshua:2:14 @ 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,

dourh@Joshua:2:15 @ That you will save my father and mother, my brethren end sisters, and all things that are theirs, and deliver our souls from death.

dourh@Joshua:2:16 @ 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.

dourh@Joshua:2:19 @ And they said to her: We shall be blameless of this oath, which thou hast made us swear:

dourh@Joshua:2:20 @ If when we come into the land, this scarlet cord be a sign, and thou tie it in the window, by which thou hast let us down: and gather together thy father and mother, and brethren and all thy kindred into thy house.

dourh@Joshua:2:21 @ Whosoever shall go out of the door of thy house, his blood shall be upon his own head, and we shall be quit. But the blood of all that shall be with thee in the house, shall light upon our head, if any man touch them.

dourh@Joshua:2:22 @ But if thou wilt betray us, and utter this word abroad, we shall be quit of this oath which thou hast made us swear.

dourh@Joshua:2:24 @ But they went and came to the mountains, and stayed there three days till they that pursued them were returned. For having sought them through all the way, they found them not.

dourh@Joshua:2:25 @ And when they were gone back into the city, the spies returned, and came down from the mountain: and passing over the Jordan, they came to Josue the son of Nun, and told him all that befel them.

dourh@Joshua:2:26 @ And said: The Lord hath delivered all this land into our hands, and all the inhabitants thereof are overthrown with fear.

dourh@Joshua:3:4 @ And let there be between you and the ark the space of two thousand cubits: that you may see it afar off, and know which way you must go: for you have not gone this way before: and take care you come not near the ark.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:3:8 @ And do thou command the priests that carry the ark of the covenant, and say to them: When you shall have entered into part of the water of the Jordan, stand in it.

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:3:14 @ So the people went out of their tents, to pass over the Jordan: and the priests that carried the ark of the covenant. went on before them.

dourh@Joshua:3:15 @ And as soon as they came into the Jordan, and their feet were dipped in part of the water, (now the Jordan, it being harvest time, had filled the banks of its channel,)

dourh@Joshua:3:16 @ The waters that came down from above stood in one place, and swelling up like a mountain, were seen afar off from the city that is called Adom, to the place of Sarthan: but those that were beneath, ran down into the sea of the wilderness (which now is called the Dead Sea) until they wholly failed.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:4:6 @ That it may be a sign among you end when your children shall ask you to morrow, saying: What mean these stones?

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:4:9 @ And Josue put other twelve stones in the midst of the channel of the Jordan, where the priests stood that carried the ark of the covenant: and they are there until this present day.

dourh@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. And the people made haste and passed over.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:4:16 @ Command the priests, that carry the ark of the covenant, to come up out of the Jordan.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:4:21 @ And said to the children of Israel: When your children shall ask their fathers, to morrow, and shall say to them: What mean these stones?

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

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

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

dourh@Joshua:5:4 @ Now this is the cause of the second circumcision: All the people that came out of Egypt that were males, all the men fit for war, died in the desert, during the time of the long going about in the way.

dourh@Joshua:5:5 @ Now these were all circumcised. But the people that were born in the desert,

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:5:7 @ The children of these succeeded in the place of their fathers, and were circumcised by Josue: for they were uncircumcised even as they were born, and no one had circumcised them in the way.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:5:10 @ And the children of Israel abode in Galgal, and they kept the phase on the fourteenth day of the month, at evening, in the plains of Jericho:

dourh@Joshua:5:11 @ And they ate on the next day unleavened bread of the corn of the land, and frumenty of the same year.

dourh@Joshua:5:12 @ And the manna ceased after they ate of the corn of the land, neither did the children of Israel use that food any more, but they ate of the corn of the present year of the land of Chanaan.

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

dourh@Joshua:6:5 @ And when the voice of the trumpet shall give a longer and broken tune, and shall sound in your ears, all the people shall shout together with a very great shout, and the walls of the city shall fall to the ground, and they shall enter in every one at the place against which they shall stand.

dourh@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:

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:6:18 @ But beware ye lest you touch ought of those things that are forbidden, and you be guilty of transgression, and all the camp of Israel be under sin, and be troubled.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:6:20 @ So all the people making a shout, and the trumpets sounding, when the voice and the sound thundered in the ears of the multitude, the walls forth- with fell down: and every man went up by the place that was over against him: s and they took the city,

dourh@Joshua:6:21 @ And killed all that were in it, man and woman, young and old. The oxen also and the sheep, and the asses, they slew with the edge of the sword.

dourh@Joshua:6:22 @ But Josue said to the two men that had been sent for spies: Go into the harlot's house, and bring her out, and all things that are hers, as you assured her by oath.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:6:25 @ But Josue saved Rahab the harlot and her father's house, and all she had, and they dwelt in the midst of Israel until this present day: because she hid the messengers whom he had sent to spy out Jericho. At that time, Josue made an imprecation, saying:

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:7:3 @ And returning they said to him: Let not all the people go up, but let two or three thousand men go and destroy the city: why should all the people be troubled in vain against enemies that are very few?

dourh@Joshua:7:4 @ There went up therefore three thou- sand fighting men: who immediately turned their backs,

dourh@Joshua:7:5 @ And were defeated by the men of the city of Hai, and there fell of them six and thirty men: and the enemies pursued them from the gate as far as Sabarim, and they slew them as they fled by the descent: and the heart of the people was struck with fear, and melted like water.

dourh@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.

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

dourh@Joshua:7:9 @ The Chanaanites, and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and being gathered together will surround us and cut off our name from the earth: and what wilt thou do to thy great name?

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

dourh@Joshua:7:11 @ Israel hath sinned, and transgressed my covenant: and they have taken of the anathema, and have stolen and lied, and have hidden it among their goods.

dourh@Joshua:7:12 @ Neither can Israel stand before his enemies, but he shall flee from them: because he is defiled with the anathema. I will be no more with you, till you destroy him that is guilty of this wickedness.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:7:14 @ And you shall come in the morning every one by your tribes: and what tribe soever the lot shall find, it shall come by its kindreds and the kindred by its houses, and the house by the men.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:7:17 @ Which being brought by its families, it was found to be the family of Zare. Bringing that also by the houses, he found it to be Zabdi.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:7:21 @ For I saw among the spoils a scarlet garment exceeding good, and two hundred sides of silver, and a golden rule of fifty sides: and I coveted them, and I took them away, and hid them in the ground is the midst of my tent, and the silver I covered with the earth that I dug up.

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:8:2 @ And thou shalt do to the city of Hai, and to the king thereof, as thou hast done to Jericho, and to the king thereof: but the spoils and all the cattle you shall take for a prey to yourselves: lay an ambush for the city behind it.

dourh@Joshua:8:6 @ Till they pursuing us be drawn farther from the city: for they will think that we flee as before.

dourh@Joshua:8:9 @ And he sent them away, and they went on to the place of the ambush, and abode between Bethel and Hai, on the west side of the city of Hai. But Josue stayed that night in the midst of the people,

dourh@Joshua:8:13 @ But all the rest of the army went in battle array on the north side, so that the last of that multitude reached to the west side of the city. So Josue went that night, and stood in the midst of the valley.

dourh@Joshua:8:14 @ And when the king of Hai saw this, he made haste in the morning, and went out with all the army of the city, and set it in battle array toward the desert, not knowing that there lay an ambush behind his back.

dourh@Joshua:8:17 @ And not one remained in the city of Hai and of Bethel, that did not pursue after Israel, leaving the towns open as they had rushed out,

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:8:19 @ And when he had lifted up his shield towards the city, the ambush that lay hid, rose up immediately: and going to the city, took it and set it on fire.

dourh@Joshua:8:20 @ And the men of the city, that pursued after Josue, looking back and seeing the smoke of the city rise up to heaven, had no more power to flee this way or that way: especially as they that had counterfeited flight, end were going toward the wilderness, turned back most valiantly against them that pursued.

dourh@Joshua:8:21 @ So Josue and all Israel seeing that the city was taken, and that the smoke of the city rose up, returned and slew the men of Hai.

dourh@Joshua:8:22 @ And they also that had taken and set the city on fire, issuing out of the city to meet their own men, began to cut off the enemies who were surrounded by them. So that the enemies being cut off on both sides, not one of so great a multitude was saved.

dourh@Joshua:8:24 @ So all being slain that had pursued after Israel in his flight to the wilderness, and tailing by the sword in the same place, the children of Israel returned and laid waste the city.

dourh@Joshua:8:25 @ And the number of them that fell that day, both of men and women, was twelve thousand persons all of the city of Hai.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:8:29 @ And he hung the king thereof on a gibbet until the evening and the going down of the sun. Then Josue commanded, and they took down his carcass from the gibbet: and threw it in the very entrance of the city, heaping upon it a great heap of stones, which remaineth until this present day.

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:8:34 @ After this he read all the words of the blessing and the cursing and all things that were written in the hook of the law.

dourh@Joshua:8:35 @ He left out nothing of those things which Moses had commanded, but he repeated all before all the people of Israel, with the women and children and strangers that dwelt among them.

dourh@Joshua:9:1 @ Now When these things were heard of, all the kings beyond the Jordan, that dwelt in the mountains and in the plains, in the places near the sea, and on the coasts of the great sea, they also that dwell by Libanus, the Hethite and the Amorrhite, the Chanaanite, the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite,

dourh@Joshua:9:2 @ Gathered themselves together, to fight against Josue and Israel with one mind, and one resolution.

dourh@Joshua:9:3 @ But they that dwelt in Gabaon, hearing all that Josue had done to Jericho and Hai:

dourh@Joshua:9:5 @ And very old shoes, which for a show of age were clouted with patches, and old garments upon them: the leaves also, which they carried for provisions by the way, were hard, and broken into pieces:

dourh@Joshua:9:6 @ And they went to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him, and to all Israel with him: We are come from a far country, desiring to make peace with you. And the children of Israel answered them, and said:

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:9:10 @ And to the two kings of the Amorrhites that were beyond the Jordan, Sehon king of Hesebon, and Og king of Basan, that was in Astaroth:

dourh@Joshua:9:15 @ And Josue made peace with them, and entering into a league promised that they should not be slain: the princes also of the multitude swore to them.

dourh@Joshua:9:16 @ Now three days after the league was made, they heard that they dwelt nigh, and they should be among them.

dourh@Joshua:9:17 @ And the children of Israel removed the camp, and came into their cities on the third day, the names of which are Gabaon, and Caphira, and Beroth, and Cariathiarim.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:9:21 @ But so let them live, as to serve the whole multitude in hewing wood, and bringing in water. As they were speaking these things,

dourh@Joshua:9:23 @ Therefore you shall be under a curse, and your race shall always be hewers of wood, and carriers of water unto the house of my God.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:9:26 @ So Josue did as he had said, and delivered them from the hand of the children of Israel, that they should not be slain.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:10:1 @ When Adonisedec king of Jerusalem had heard these things, to wit, that Josue had taken Hai, and had destroyed it, (for as he had done to Jericho and the king thereof, so did he to Hai, and its king,) and that the Gabaonites were gone over to Israel, and were their confederates,

dourh@Joshua:10:2 @ He was exceedingly afraid. For Gabaon was a great city, and one of the royal cities, and greater than the town of Hai, and all its fighting men were most valiant.

dourh@Joshua:10:4 @ Come up to me, and bring help, that we may take Gabaon, because it hath gone over to Josue, and to the children of Israel.

dourh@Joshua:10:6 @ But the inhabitants of the city of Gabaon which was besieged, sent to Josue, who then abode in the camp at Galgal, and said to him: Withdraw not thy hands from helping thy servants: come up quickly and save us, and bring us succour: for all the kings of the Amorrhites, who dwell in the mountains, are gathered together against us.

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:10:17 @ And it was told Josue that the five kings were found hidden in a cave of the city of Maceda.

dourh@Joshua:10:18 @ And he commanded them that were with him, saying: Roll great stones to the mouth of the cave, and set careful men, to keep them shut up:

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:10:20 @ So the enemies being slain with a great slaughter, and almost utterly consumed, they that were able to escape from Israel, entered into fenced cities.

dourh@Joshua:10:22 @ And Josue gave orders, saying: Open the mouth of the cave, and bring forth to me the five kings that lie hid therein.

dourh@Joshua:10:24 @ And when they were Drought out to him, he called all the men of Israel, and said to the chiefs of the army that were with him: Go, and set your feet on the necks of these kings. And when they had gone, and put their feet upon the necks of them lying under them,

dourh@Joshua:10:27 @ And when the sun was down, he commanded the soldiers to take them down from the gibbets. And after they were taken down, they cast them into the cave where they had lain hid, and put great stones at the mouth thereof, which remain until this day.

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:10:33 @ At that time Horam king of Gazer, came up to succour Lachis: and Josue slew him with all his people, so as to leave none alive.

dourh@Joshua:10:35 @ And took it the same day: and put to the sword all the souls that were in it, according to all that he had done to Lachis.

dourh@Joshua:10:37 @ Took it, and destroyed it with the edge of the sword: the king also thereof, and all the towns of that country, and all the souls that dwelt in it: he left not therein any remains: as he had done to Eglon, so did he also to Hebron, putting to the sword all that he found in it.

dourh@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,

dourh@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.

dourh@Joshua:11:2 @ And to the kings of the north, that dwelt in the mountains and in the plains over against the south side of Ceneroth, and in the levels and the countries of Dor by the sea side:

dourh@Joshua:11:3 @ To the Chanaanites also on the ease and on the west, and the Amorrhite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Jebusite in the mountains: to the Hevite also who dwelt at the foot of Hermon in the land of Maspha.

dourh@Judges:21:17 @ And we must use all care, and provide with great diligence, that one tribe be not destroyed out of Israel.

dourh@Judges:21:18 @ For as to our own daughters we cannot give them, being bound with an oath and a curse, whereby we said: Cursed be he that shall give Benjamin any of his daughters to wife.

dourh@Judges:21:19 @ So they took counsel, and said: Behold there is a yearly solemnity of the Lord in Silo, which is situate on the north of the city of Bethel, and on the east side of the way, that goeth from Bethel to Sichem, and on the south of the town of Lebona.

dourh@Judges:21:22 @ And when their fathers and their brethren shall come, and shall begin to complain against you, and to chide, we will say to them: Have pity on them for they took them not away as by the right of war or conquest, but when they asked to have them, you gave them not, and the fault was committed on your part.

dourh@Judges:21:23 @ And the children of Benjamin did, as they had been commanded: and according to their number, they carried off for themselves every man his wife of them that were dancing: and they went into their possession and built up their cities, and dwelt in them.

dourh@Judges:21:24 @ The children of Israel also returned by their tribes, and families, to their dwellings. In those days there was no king in Israel: but every one did that which seemed right to himself.

dourh@Ruth:2:14 @ And Booz said to her: At mealtime come thou hither, and eat of the bread, and dip thy morsel in the vinegar. So she sat at the side of the reapers, and she heaped to herself frumenty, and ate and was filled, and took the leavings.

dourh@Ruth:2:16 @ And let fall some of your handfuls of purpose, and leave them, that she may gather them without shame, and let no man rebuke her when she gathereth them.

dourh@Ruth:2:17 @ She gleaned therefore in the field till evening: and beating out with a rod and threshing what she had gleaned, she found about the measure of an ephi of barley, that is, three bushels:

dourh@Ruth:3:6 @ And she went down to the barnfloor, and did all that her mother in law had bid her.

dourh@Ruth:3:7 @ And when Booz had eaten, and drunk, and was merry, he went to sleep by the heap of sheaves, and she came softly and uncovering his feet, laid herself down.

dourh@Ruth:3:8 @ And behold, when it was now midnight the man was afraid, and troubled: and he saw a woman lying at his feet,

dourh@Ruth:3:11 @ Fear not therefore, but whatsoever thou shalt say to me I will do to thee. For all the people that dwell within the gates of my city, know that thou art a virtuous woman.

dourh@Ruth:3:14 @ So she slept at his feet till the night was going off. And she arose before men could know one another, and Booz said: Beware lest any man know that thou camest hither.

dourh@Ruth:3:16 @ And came to her mother in law; who said to her: What hast thou done, daughter? And she told her all that the man had done to her.

dourh@Ruth:3:17 @ And she said: Behold he hath given me six measures of barley: for he said: I will not have thee return empty to thy mother in law.

dourh@Ruth:4:5 @ And Booz said to him: When thou shalt buy the field at the woman's hand, thou must take also Ruth the Moabitess, who was the wife of the deceased: to raise up the name of thy kinsman in his inheritance.

dourh@Ruth:4:7 @ Now this in former times was the manner in Israel between kinsmen, that if at any time one yielded his right to another: that the grant might be sure, the man put off his shoe, and gave it to his neighhour; this was a testimony of cession of right in Israel.

dourh@1Samuel:19:16 @ And when the messengers were come in, they found an image upon the bed, and a goat's skin at its head.

dourh@1Samuel:19:18 @ But David fled and escaped, and came to Samuel in Ramatha, and told him all that Saul had done to him: and he and Samuel went and dwelt in Najoth.

dourh@1Samuel:19:19 @ And it was told Saul by some, saying: Behold David is in Najoth in Ramatha.

dourh@1Samuel:19:22 @ Went also himself to Ramatha, and came as far as the great cistern, which is in Socho, and he asked, and said: In what place are Samuel and David? And it was told him: Behold they axe in Najoth in Ramatha.

dourh@1Samuel:19:23 @ And he went to Najoth in Ramatha, and the spirit of the Lord came upon him also, and he went on, and prophesied till he came to Najoth in Ramatha.

dourh@1Samuel:19:24 @ And he stripped himself also of his garments, and prophesied with the rest before Samuel, and lay down naked all that day and night. This gave occasion to a proverb: What! is Saul too among the prophets?

dourh@1Samuel:20:1 @ But David fled from Najoth, which is in Ramatha, and came and said to Jonathan: What have I done? what is my iniquity, and what is my sin against thy father, that he seeketh my life?

dourh@1Samuel:20:2 @ And he said to him: God forbid, thou shalt not die: for my father will do nothing great or little, without first telling me: hath then my father hid this word only from me? no, this shall not be.

dourh@1Samuel:20:3 @ And he swore again to David. And David said: Thy father certainly knoweth that I have found grace in thy sight, and he will say: Let not Jonathan know this, lest he be grieved. But truly as the Lord liveth, and thy soul liveth, there is but one step (as I may say) between me and death.

dourh@1Samuel:20:4 @ And Jonathan said to David: Whatsoever thy soul shall say to me, I will do for thee.

dourh@1Samuel:20:5 @ And David said to Jonathan: Behold to morrow is the new moon, and I according to custom am wont to sit beside the king to eat: let me go then that I may be hid in the field till the evening of the third day.

dourh@1Samuel:20:6 @ If thy father look and inquire for me, thou shalt answer him: David asked me that he might run to Bethlehem his own city: because there are solemn sacrifices there for all his tribe.

dourh@1Samuel:20:7 @ If he shall say, It is well: thy servant shall have peace: but if he be angry, know that his malice is come to its height.

dourh@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.

dourh@1Samuel:20:9 @ And Jonathan said: Far be this from thee: for if I should certainly know that evil is determined by my father against thee, I could do no otherwise than tell thee.

dourh@1Samuel:20:10 @ And David answered Jonathan: Who shall bring me word, if thy father should answer thee harshly concerning me?

dourh@1Samuel:20:11 @ And Jonathan said to David: Come and let us go out into the field. And when they were both of them gone out into the field,

dourh@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,

dourh@1Samuel:20:13 @ May the Lord do so and so to Jonathan and add still more. But if my father shall continue in malice against thee, I will discover it to thy ear, and will send thee away, that thou mayest go in peace, and the Lord be with thee, as he hath been with my father.

dourh@1Samuel:20:15 @ Thou shalt not take away thy kindness from my house for ever, when the Lord shall have rooted out the enemies of David, every one of them from the earth, may he take away Jonathan from his house, and may the Lord require it at the hands of David's enemies.

dourh@1Samuel:20:16 @ Jonathan therefore made a covenant with the house of David: and the Lord required it at the hands of David's enemies.

dourh@1Samuel:20:17 @ And Jonathan swore again to David, because he loved him: for he loved him as his own soul.

dourh@1Samuel:20:18 @ And Jonathan said to him: To morrow is the new moon, and thou wilt be missed:

dourh@1Samuel:20:19 @ For thy seat will be empty till after tomorrow. So thou shalt go down quickly, and come to the place, where thou must be hid on the day when it is lawful to work, and thou shalt remain beside the stone, which is called Ezel.

dourh@1Samuel:20:20 @ And I will shoot three arrows near it, and will shoot as if I were exercising myself at a mark.

dourh@1Samuel:20:22 @ If I shall say to the boy: Behold the arrows are on this side of thee, take them up: come thou to me, because, there is peace to thee, and there is no evil, as the Lord liveth.

dourh@1Samuel:20:24 @ So David was hid in the field, and the new moon came, and the king sat down to eat bread.

dourh@1Samuel:20:25 @ And when the king sat down upon his chair (according to custom) which was beside the wall, Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side, and David's place appeared empty.

dourh@1Samuel:20:26 @ And Saul said nothing that day, for he thought it might have happened to him, that he was not clean, nor purified.

dourh@1Samuel:20:27 @ And when the second day after the new moon was come, David's place appeared empty again. And Saul said to Jonathan his son: Why cometh not the son of Isai to meat neither yesterday nor to day?

dourh@1Samuel:20:28 @ And Jonathan answered Saul: He asked leave of me earnestly to go to Bethlehem,

dourh@1Samuel:20:29 @ And he said: Let me go, for there is a solemn sacrifice in the city, one of my brethren hath sent for me: and now if I have found favour in thy eyes, I will go quickly, and see my brethren. For this cause he came not to the king's table.

dourh@1Samuel:20:30 @ Then Saul being angry against Jonathan said to him: Thou son of a woman that is the ravisher of a man, do I not know that thou lovest the son of Isai to thy own confusion and to the confusion of thy shameless mother?

dourh@1Samuel:20:31 @ For as long as the son of Isai liveth upon earth, thou shalt not be established, nor thy kingdom. Therefore now presently send, and fetch him to me: for he is the son of death.

dourh@1Samuel:20:32 @ And Jonathan answering Saul his father, said: Why shall he die: what hath he done?

dourh@1Samuel:20:33 @ And Saul caught up a spear to strike him. And Jonathan understood that it was determined by his father to kill David.

dourh@1Samuel:20:34 @ So Jonathan rose from the table in great anger, and did not eat bread on the second day after the new moon. For he was grieved for David, because his father had put him to confusion.

dourh@1Samuel:20:35 @ And when the morning came, Jonathan went into the field, according to the appointment with David, and a little boy with him.

dourh@1Samuel:20:37 @ The boy therefore came to the place of the arrow which Jonathan had shot: and Jonathan cried after the boy, and said: Behold the arrow is there further beyond thee.

dourh@1Samuel:20:38 @ And Jonathan cried again after the boy, saying: Make haste speedily, stand not. And Jonathan's boy gathered up the arrows, and brought them to his master:

dourh@1Samuel:20:39 @ And he knew not at all what was doing: for only Jonathan and David knew the matter.

dourh@1Samuel:20:40 @ Jonathan therefore gave his arms to the boy, and said to him: Go, and carry them into the city.

dourh@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.

dourh@1Samuel:21:5 @ And David answered the priest, and said to him: Truly, as to what concerneth women, we have refrained ourselves from yesterday and the day before, when we came out, and the vessels of the young men were holy.

dourh@1Samuel:21:6 @ The priest therefore gave him hallowed bread: for there was no bread there, but only the loaves of proposition, which had been taken away from before the face of the Lord, that hot loaves might be set up.

dourh@1Samuel:21:7 @ Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, within the tabernacle of the Lord: and his name was Doeg, an Edomite, the chiefest of Saul's herdsmen.

dourh@1Samuel:21:8 @ And David said to Achimelech: Hast thou here at hand a spear, or a sword? for I brought not my own sword, nor my own weapons with me, for the king's business required haste.

dourh@1Samuel:27:5 @ And David said to Achis: If I have found favour in thy sight, let a place be given me in one of the cities of this country, that I may dwell there: for why should thy servant dwell in the royal city with thee?

dourh@1Samuel:27:6 @ Then Achis gave him Siceleg that day: for which reason Siceleg belongeth to the kings of Juda unto this day.

dourh@1Samuel:27:7 @ And the time that David dwelt in the country of the Philistines, was four months.

dourh@1Samuel:27:11 @ And David saved neither man nor woman, neither brought he any of them to Geth, saying: Lest they should speak against us. So did David, and such was his proceeding all the days that he dwelt in the country of the Philistines.

dourh@1Samuel:27:12 @ And Achis believed David, saying: He hath done much harm to his people Israel: therefore he shall be my servant for ever.

dourh@1Samuel:28:1 @ And it came to pass in those days, that the Philistines gathered together their armies to be prepared for war against Israel: and Achis said to David: Know thou now assuredly, that thou shalt go out with me to the war, thou, and thy men.

dourh@1Samuel:28:2 @ And David said to Achis: Now thou shalt know what thy servant will do. And Achis said to David: And I will appoint thee to guard my life for ever.

dourh@1Samuel:28:14 @ And he said to her: What form is he of? And she said: An old man cometh up, and he is covered with a mantle. And Saul understood that it was Samuel, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground, and adored.

dourh@1Samuel:28:15 @ And Samuel said to Saul: Why hast thou disturbed my rest, that I should be brought up? And Saul said, I am in great distress: for the Philistines fight against me, and God is departed from me, and would not hear me, neither by the hand of prophets, nor by dreams: therefore I have called thee, that thou mayest shew me what I shall do.

dourh@1Samuel:28:18 @ Because thou didst not obey the voice of the Lord, neither didst thou execute the wrath of his indignation upon Amalec. Therefore hath the Lord done to thee what thou sufferest this day.

dourh@1Samuel:28:20 @ And forthwith Saul fell all along on the ground, for he was frightened with the words of Samuel, and there was no strength in him, for he had eaten no bread all that day.

dourh@1Samuel:28:21 @ And the woman came to Saul (for he was very much troubled) and said to him: Behold thy handmaid hath obeyed thy voice, and I have put my life in my hand: and I hearkened unto the words which thou spokest to me.

dourh@1Samuel:28:22 @ Now therefore hear thou also the voice of thy handmaid, and let me set before thee a morsel of bread, that thou mayest eat and recover strength, and be able to go on thy journey.

dourh@1Samuel:28:23 @ But he refused, and said: I will not eat. But his servants and the woman forced him, and at length hearkening to their voice, he arose from the ground and sat upon the bed.

dourh@1Samuel:28:24 @ Now the woman had a fatted calf in the house, and she made haste and killed it: and taking meal kneaded it, and baked some unleavened bread,

dourh@1Samuel:29:1 @ Now all the troops of the Philistines were gathered together to Aphec: and Israel also camped by the fountain which is in Jezrahel.

dourh@1Samuel:29:3 @ And the princes of the Philistines said to Achis: What mean these Hebrews?

dourh@1Samuel:29:4 @ But the princes of the Philistines were angry with him, and they said to him: Let this man return, and abide in his place, which thou hast appointed him, and let him not go down with us to battle, lest he be an adversary to us, when we shall begin to fight: for how can he otherwise appease his master, but with our heads?

dourh@1Samuel:29:6 @ Then Achis called David, and said to him: As the Lord liveth, thou art upright and good in my sight: and so is thy going out, and thy coming in with me in the army: and I have not found my evil in thee, since the day that thou camest to me unto this day: but thou pleasest not the lords.

dourh@1Samuel:29:8 @ And David said to Achis: But what have I done, and what hast thou found in me thy servant, from the day that I have been in thy sight until this day, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?

dourh@1Samuel:29:9 @ And Achis answering said to David: I know that thou art good in my sight, as an angel of God: but the princes of the Philistines have said: He shall not go up with us to the battle.

dourh@1Samuel:29:11 @ So David and his men arose in the night, that they might set forward in the morning, and returned to the land of the Philistines: and the Philistines went up to Jezrahel.

dourh@1Samuel:30:2 @ And had taken the women captives that were in it, both little and great: and they had not killed any person, but had carried them with them, and went on their way.

dourh@1Samuel:30:12 @ As also a piece of a cake of figs, and two bunches of raisins. And when he had eaten them his spirit returned, and he was refreshed: for he had not eaten bread, nor drunk water three days, and three nights.

dourh@1Samuel:30:15 @ And David said to him: Canst thou bring me to this company? And he said: Swear to me by God, that thou wilt not kill me, nor deliver me into the hands of my master, and I will bring thee to this company. And David swore to him.

dourh@1Samuel:30:16 @ And when he had brought him, behold they were lying spread upon all the ground, eating and drinking, and as it were keeping a festival day, for all the prey, and the spoils which they had taken out of the land of the Philistines, and out of the land of Juda.

dourh@1Samuel:30:19 @ And there was nothing missing small or great, neither of their sons or their daughters, nor of the spoils, and whatsoever they had taken: David recovered all.

dourh@1Samuel:30:21 @ And David came to the two hundred men, who being weary had stayed, and were not able to follow David, and he had ordered them to abide at the torrent Besor: and they came out to meet David, and the people that were with him.

dourh@1Samuel:30:22 @ Then all the wicked and unjust men that had gone with David answering, said: Because they came not with us, we will not give them any thing of the prey which we have recovered: but let every man take his wife and his children, and be contented with them, and go his way.

dourh@1Samuel:30:23 @ But David said: You shall not do so, my brethren, with these things, which the Lord hath given us, who hath kept us, and hath delivered the robbers that invaded us into our hands.

dourh@1Samuel:30:24 @ And no man shall hearken to you in this matter. But equal shall be the portion of him that went down to battle and of him that abode at the baggage, and they shall divide alike.

dourh@1Samuel:31:4 @ Then Saul said to his armourbearer: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest these uncircumcised come, and slay me, and mock at me. And his armourbearer would not: for he was struck with exceeding great fear. Then Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.

dourh@1Samuel:31:5 @ And when his armourbearer saw this, to wit, that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died with him.

dourh@2Samuel:1:6 @ And the young man that told him, said: I came by chance upon mount Gelboe, and Saul leaned upon his spear: and the chariots and horsemen drew nigh unto him,

dourh@2Samuel:1:10 @ So standing over him, I killed him: for I knew that he could not live after the fall: and I took the diadem that was on his head, and the bracelet that was on his arm and have brought them hither to thee, my lord.

dourh@2Samuel:1:15 @ And David calling one of his servants, said: Go near and fall upon him. And he struck him so that he died.

dourh@2Samuel:1:16 @ And David said to him: Thy blood be upon thy own head: for thy own mouth hath spoken against thee, saying: I have slain the Lord's anointed.

dourh@2Samuel:1:17 @ And David made this kind of lamentation over Saul, and over Jonathan his son.

dourh@2Samuel:1:18 @ (Also he commanded that they should teach the children of Juda the use of the bow, as it is written in the book of the just.) And he said: Consider, O Israel, for them that are dead, wounded on thy high places.

dourh@2Samuel:1:24 @ Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you with scarlet in delights, who gave ornaments of gold for your attire.

dourh@2Samuel:1:25 @ How are the valiant fallen in battle? Jonathan slain in the high places?

dourh@2Samuel:1:26 @ I grieve for thee, my brother Jonathan: exceeding beautiful, and amiable to me above the love of women. As the mother loveth her only son, so did I love thee.

dourh@2Chronicles:5:7 @ And the priests brought in the ark of the covenant of the Lord into its place, that is, to the oracle of the temple, into the holy of holies under the wings of the cherubims:

dourh@2Chronicles:5:8 @ So that the cherubims spread their wings over the place, in which the ark was set, and covered the ark itself and its staves.

dourh@2Chronicles:5:10 @ And there was nothing else in the ark but the two tables which Moses put there at Horeb when the Lord gave the law to the children of Israel, at their coming out of Egypt.

dourh@2Chronicles:5:13 @ So when they all sounded together, both with trumpets, and voice, and cymbals, and organs, and with divers kind of musical instruments, and lifted up their voice on high: the sound was heard afar off, so that when they began to praise the Lord, and to say: Give glory to the Lord for he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever: the house of God was filled with a cloud.

dourh@2Chronicles:6:1 @ Then Solomon said: The Lord promised that he would dwell in a cloud.

dourh@2Chronicles:6:5 @ From the day that I brought my people out of the land of Egypt, I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel, for a house to be built in it to my name: neither chose I any other man, to be the ruler of my people Israel.

dourh@Esther:1:18 @ And by this example all the wives of the princes of the Persians and the Medes will slight the commandments of their husbands: wherefore the king's indignation is just.

dourh@Esther:1:19 @ If it please thee, let an edict go out from thy presence, and let it be written according to the law of the Persians and of the Medes, which must not be altered, that Vasthi come in no more to the king, but another, that is better than her, be made queen in her place.

dourh@Esther:1:20 @ And let this be published through all the provinces of thy empire, (which is very wide,) and let all wives, as well of the greater as of the lesser, give honour to their husbands.

dourh@Esther:1:22 @ And he sent letters to all the provinces of his kingdom, as every nation could hear and read, in divers languages and characters, that the husbands should be rulers and masters in their houses: and that this should be published to every people.

dourh@Esther:2:1 @ After this, when the wrath of king Assuerus was appeased, he remembered Vasthi, and what she had done end what she had suffered:

dourh@Esther:2:6 @ Who had been carried away from Jerusalem at the time that Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon carried away Jechonias king of Juda,

dourh@Esther:2:7 @ And he had brought up his brother's daughter Edissa, who by another name was called Esther: now she had lost both her parents: and was exceeding fair and beautiful. And her father and mother being dead, Mardochai adopted her for his daughter.

dourh@Esther:2:10 @ And she would not tell him her people nor her country. For Mardochai had charged her to say nothing at all of that:

dourh@Esther:2:11 @ And he walked every day before the court of the house, in which the chosen virgins werre kept, having a care for Esther's welfare, and desiring to know what would befall her.

dourh@Esther:2:12 @ Now when every virgin's turn came to go in to the king, after all had been done for setting them off to advantage, it was the twelfth month: so that for six months they were anointed with oil of myrrh, and for other six months they used certain perfumes and sweet spices.

dourh@Esther:2:13 @ And when they were going in to the king, whatsoever they asked to adorn themselves they received: and being decked out, as it pleased them, they passed from the chamber of the women to the king's chamber.

dourh@Esther:2:14 @ And she that went in at evening, came out in the morning, and from thence she was conducted to the second house, that was under the hand of Susagaz the eunuch, who had the charge over the king's concubines: neither could she re- turn any more to the king, unless the king desired it, and had ordered her by name to come.

dourh@Esther:2:15 @ And as the time came orderly about, the day was at hand, when Esther, the daughter of Abihail the brother of Mardochai, whom he had adopted for his daughter, was to go in to the king. But she sought not women's ornaments, but whatsoever Egeus the eunuch the keeper of the virgins had a mind, he gave her to adorn her. For she was exceeding fair, and her incredible beauty made her appear agreeable and amiable in the eyes of all.

dourh@Esther:2:19 @ And when the virgins were sought the second time, and gathered together, Mardochai stayed at the king's gate,

dourh@Esther:2:20 @ Neither had Esther as yet declared her country and people, according to his commandment. For whatsoever he commanded, Esther observed: and she did all things in the same manner as she was wont at that time when he brought her up a little one.

dourh@Esther:2:21 @ At that time, therefore, when Mardochai abode at the king's gate, Bagathan and Thares, two of the king's eunuchs, who were porters, and presided in the first entry of the palace, were angry: and they designed to rise up against the king, and to kill him.

dourh@Esther:2:22 @ And Mardochai had notice of it, and immediately he told it to queen Esther: and she to the king in Mardochai's name, who had reported the thing unto her.

dourh@Esther:3:1 @ After these things, king Assuerus advanced Aman, the son of Amadathi, who was of the race of Agag: and he set his throne above all the princes that were with him.

dourh@Esther:3:2 @ And all the king's servants, that were at the doors of the palace, bent their knees, and worshipped Aman: for so the emperor had commanded them, only Mardochai did not bend his knee, nor worship him.

dourh@Esther:3:3 @ And the king's servants that were chief at the doors of the palace, said to him: Why dost thou alone not observe the king's commandment?

dourh@Esther:3:4 @ And when they were saying this often, and he would not hearken to them; they told Aman, desirous to know whether he would continue in his resolution: for he had told them that he was a Jew.

dourh@Esther:3:5 @ Now when Aman had heard this, and had proved by experience that Mardochai did not bend his knee to him, nor worship him, he was exceeding angry.

dourh@Esther:3:6 @ And he counted it nothing to lay his hands upon Mardochai alone: for he had heard that he was of the nation of the Jews, and he chose rather to destroy all the nation of the Jews that were in the kingdom of Assuerus.

dourh@Esther:3:7 @ In the first month (which is called Nisan) in the twelfth year a of the reign of Assuerus, the lot was cast into an urn, which in Hebrew is called Phur, before Aman, on what day and what month the nation of the Jews should be destroyed: and there came out the twelfth month, which is called Adar.

dourh@Esther:3:8 @ And Aman said to king Assuerus: There is a people scattered through all the provinces of thy kingdom, and separated one from another, that use new laws and ceremonies, and moreover despise the king's ordinances: and thou knowest very well that it is not expedient for thy kingdom that they should grow insolent by impunity.

dourh@Esther:3:9 @ If it please thee, decree that they may he destroyed, and I will pay ten thousand talents to thy treasurers.

dourh@Esther:3:10 @ And the king took the ring that he used, from his own hand, and gave it to Aman, the son of Amadathi of the race of Agag, the enemy of the Jews,

dourh@Esther:3:12 @ And the king's scribes were called in the first month Nisan, on the thirteenth day of the same month: and they wrote, as Aman had commanded, to all the king's lieutenants, and to the judges of the provinces, and of divers nations, as every nation could read, and hear according to their different languages, in the name of king Assuerus: and the letters, sealed with his ring,

dourh@Esther:3:13 @ Were sent by the king's messengers to all provinces, to kill and destroy all the Jews, both young and old, little children, and women, in one day, that is, on the thirteenth of the twelfth month, which is called Adar, and to make a spoil of their goods.

dourh@Esther:3:14 @ And the contents of the letters were to this effect, that all provinces might know and be ready against that day.

dourh@Esther:3:15 @ The couriers that were sent made haste to fulfil the king's commandment. And immediately the edict was hung up in Susan, the king and Aman feasting together, and all the Jews that were in the city weeping.

dourh@Esther:4:2 @ And he came lamenting in this manner even to the gate of the palace: for no one clothed with sackcloth might enter the king's court.

dourh@Esther:4:3 @ And in all provinces, towns, and places, to which the king's cruel edict was come, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, wailing, and weeping, many using sackcloth and ashes for their bed.

dourh@Esther:4:4 @ Then Esther's maids and her eunuchs went in, and told her. And when she heard it she was in a consternation: and she sent a garment, to clothe him, and to take away the sackcloth: but he would not receive it.

dourh@Esther:4:5 @ And she called for Athach the eunuch, whom the king had appointed to attend upon her, and she commanded him to go to Mardochai, and learn of him why he did this.

dourh@Esther:4:6 @ And Athach going out went to Mardochai, who was standing in the street of the city, before the palace gate:

dourh@Esther:4:7 @ And Mardochai told him all that had happened, how Aman had promised to pay money into the king's treasures, to have the Jews destroyed.

dourh@Esther:4:8 @ He gave him also a copy of the edict which was hanging up in Susan, that he should shew it to the queen, and admonish her to go in to the king, and to en- treat him for her people.

dourh@Esther:4:9 @ And Athach went back and told Esther all that Mardochai had said.

dourh@Esther:4:11 @,11All the king's servants, and all the provinces that are under his dominion, know, that whosoever, whether man or woman, cometh into the king's inner court, who is not called for, is immediately to be put to death without any delay: except the king shall hold out the golden sceptre to him, in token of clemency, that so he may live. How then can I go in to the king, who for these thirty days now have not been called unto him?

dourh@Esther:4:13 @ He sent word to Esther again, saying: Think not that thou mayst save thy life only, because thou art in the king a house, more than all the Jews:

dourh@Esther:4:14 @ For if thou wilt now hold thy peace, the Jews shall be delivered by some other occasion: and thou, and thy father's house shall perish. And who knoweth whether thou art not therefore come to the kingdom, that thou mightest be ready in such a time as this?

dourh@Esther:4:16 @ Go, and gather together all the Jews whom thou shalt find in Susan, and pray ye for me. Neither eat nor drink for three days and three nights: and I with my handmaids will fast in like manner, and then I will go in to the king, against the law, not being called, and expose myself to death and to danger.

dourh@Esther:4:17 @ So Mardochai went, and did all that Esther had commanded him.

dourh@Esther:5:1 @ And on the third day Esther put on her royal apparel, and stood in the inner court of the king's house, over against the king's hall: now he sat upon his throne in the hall of the palace, over against the door of the house.

dourh@Esther:5:3 @ And the king said to her: What wilt then, queen Esther? what is thy request? if thou shouldst even ask one half of the kingdom, it shall be given to thee.

dourh@Esther:5:5 @ And the king said forthwith: Call ye Aman quickly, that he may obey Esther's will. So the king and Aman came to the banquet which the queen had prepared for them.

dourh@Esther:5:6 @ And the king said to her, after he had drunk wine plentifully: What dost thou desire should be given thee? and for what thing askest thou? although thou shouldst ask the half of my kingdom, thou shalt have it.

dourh@Esther:5:8 @ If I have found favour in the king's sight, and if it please the king to give me what I ask, and to fulfil my petition: let the king and Aman come to the banquet which I have prepared them, and to morrow I will open my mind to the king.

dourh@Esther:5:9 @ So Aman went out that day joyful and merry. And when he saw Mardochai sitting before the gate of the palace, and that he not only did not rise up to honour him, but did not so much as move from the place where he sat, he was exceedingly angry:

dourh@Esther:5:11 @ And he declared to them the greatness of his riches, and the multitude of his children, and with how great glory the king had advanced him above all his princes and servants.

dourh@Esther:5:12 @ And after this he said: Queen Esther also hath invited no other to the banquet with the king, but me: and with her I am also to dine to morrow with the king:

dourh@Esther:5:13 @ And whereas I have all these things, I think I have nothing, so long as I see Mardochai the Jew sitting before the king's gate.

dourh@Esther:5:14 @ Then Zares his wife, and the rest of his friends answered him: Order a great beam to be prepared, fifty cubits high, and in the morning speak to the king, that Mardochai may be hanged upon it, and so thou shalt go full of joy with the king to the banquet. The counsel pleased him, and he commanded a high gibbet to be prepared.

dourh@Esther:6:1 @ That night the king passed without sleep, and he commanded the histories and chronicles of former times to be brought him. And when they were reading them before him,

dourh@Esther:6:2 @ They came to that place where it was written, how Mardochai had discovered the treason of Bagathan and Thares the eunuchs, who sought to kill king Assuerus.

dourh@Esther:6:3 @ And when the king heard this, he said: What honour and reward hath Mardochai received for this fidelity? His servants and ministers said to him: He hath received no reward at all.

dourh@Esther:6:4 @ And the king said immediately: Who is in the court? for Aman was coming in to the inner court of the king's house, to speak to the king, that he might order Mardochai to be hanged upon the gibbet which was prepared for him.

dourh@Esther:6:6 @ And when he was come in, he said to him: What ought to be done to the man whom the king is desirous to honour? But Aman thinking in his heart, and supposing that the king would honour no other but himself,

dourh@Esther:6:8 @ Ought to be clothed with the king's apparel, and to be set upon the horse that the king rideth upon, and to have the royal crown upon his head,

dourh@Esther:6:9 @ And let the first of the king's princes and nobles hold his horse, and going through the street of the city, proclaim before him and say: Thus shall he be honoured, whom the king hath a mind to honour.

dourh@Esther:6:10 @ And the king said to him: Make haste and take the robe and the horse, and do as thou hast spoken to Mardochai the Jew, who sitteth before the gates of the palace. Beware thou pass over any of those things which thou hast spoken.

dourh@Esther:6:11 @ So Aman took the robe and the horse, and arraying Mardochai in the street of the city, and setting him on the horse, went before him, and proclaimed: This honour is he worthy of, whom the king hath a mind to honour.

dourh@Esther:6:12 @ But Mardochai returned to the palace gate: and Aman made haste to go to his house, mourning and having his head covered:

dourh@Esther:6:13 @ And he told Zares his wife, and his friends, all that had befallen him. And the wise men whom he had in counsel, and his wife answered him: If Mardochai be of the seed of the Jews, before whom thou hast begun to fall, thou canst not resist him, but thou shalt fall in his sight.

dourh@Esther:7:2 @ And the king said to her again the second day, after he was warm with wine: What is thy petition, Esther, that it may be granted thee? and what wilt thou have done: although thou ask the half of my kingdom, thou shalt have it.

dourh@Esther:7:5 @ And king Assuerus answered and said: Who is this, and of what power, that he should do these things?

dourh@Esther:7:6 @ And Esther said: It is this Aman that is our adversary and most wicked enemy. Aman hearing this was forthwith astonished, not being able to bear the countenance of the king and of the queen.

dourh@Esther:7:7 @ But the king being angry rose up, and went from the place of the banquet into the garden set with trees. Aman also rose up to entreat Esther the queen for his life, for he understood that evil was prepared for him by the king.

dourh@Esther:7:8 @ And when the king came back out of the garden set with trees, and entered into the place of the banquet, he found Aman was fallen upon the bed on which Esther lay, and he said: He will force the queen also in my presence, in my own house. The word was not yet gone out of the king's mouth, and immediately they covered his face.

dourh@Esther:7:9 @ And Harbona, one of the eunuchs that stood waiting on the king, said: Behold the gibbet which he hath prepared for Mardochai, who spoke for the king, standeth in Aman's house, being fifty cubits high. And the king said to him: Hang him upon it.

dourh@Esther:7:10 @ So Aman was hanged on the gibbet, which he had prepared for Mardochai: and the king's wrath ceased.

dourh@Esther:8:1 @ On that day king Assuerus gave the house of Aman, the Jews' enemy, to queen Esther, and Mardochai came in before the king. For Esther had confessed to him that he was her uncle.

dourh@Esther:8:3 @ And not content with these things, she fell down at the king's feet and wept, and speaking to him besought him, that he would give orders that the malice of Aman the Agagite, and his most wicked devices which he had invented against the Jews, should be of no effect.

dourh@Esther:8:5 @ And said: If it please the king, and if I have found favour in his sight, and my request be not disagreeable to him, I beseech thee, that the former letters of Aman the traitor and enemy of the Jews, by which he commanded that they should be destroyed in all the king's provinces, may be reversed by new letters.

dourh@Esther:8:8 @ Write ye therefore to the Jews, as it pleaseth you, in the king's name, and seal the letters with my ring. For this was the custom, that no man durst gainsay the letters which were sent in the king's name, and were sealed with his ring.

dourh@Esther:8:11 @ And the king gave orders to them, to speak to the Jews in every city, and to command them to gather themselves together, and to stand for their lives, and to kill and destroy all their enemies with their wives and children and all their houses, and to take their spoil.

dourh@Esther:8:13 @ And this was the content of the letter, that it should be notified in all lands and peoples that were subject to the empire of king Assuerus, that the Jews were ready to be revenged of their enemies.

dourh@Esther:8:17 @ And in all peoples, cities, and provinces, whithersoever the king's commandments came, there was wonderful rejoicing, feasts and banquets, and keeping holy day: insomuch that many of other nations and religion, joined themselves to their worship and ceremonies. For a great dread of the name of the Jews had fallen upon all.

dourh@Esther:9:2 @ And they gathered themselves together in every city, and town, and place, to lay their hands on their enemies, and their persecutors. And no one durst withstand them, for the fear of their power had gone through every people.

dourh@Esther:9:3 @ And the judges of the provinces, and the governors, and lieutenants, and every one in dignity, that presided over every place and work, extolled the Jews for fear of Mardochai:

dourh@Esther:9:4 @ For they knew him to be prince of the palace, and to have great power: and the fame of his name increased daily, and was spread abroad through all men's mouths.

dourh@Esther:9:5 @ So the Jews made a great slaughter of their enemies, and killed them, repaying according to what they had prepared to do to them:

dourh@Esther:9:6 @ Insomuch that even in Susan they killed five hundred men, besides the ten sons of Aman the Agagite, the enemy of the Jews: whose names are these:

dourh@Esther:9:7 @ Pharsandatha, and Delphon, and Esphatha,

dourh@Esther:9:8 @ And Phoratha, and Adalia, and Aridatha,

dourh@Esther:9:9 @ And Phermesta, and Arisai, and Aridai, and Jezatha.

dourh@Esther:9:11 @ And presently the number of them that were killed in Susan was brought to the king.

dourh@Esther:9:12 @ And he said to the queen: The Jews have killed five hundred men in the city of Susan, besides the ten sons of Aman: how many dost thou think they have slain in all the provinces? What askest thou more, and what wilt thou have me to command to be done?

dourh@Esther:9:13 @ And she answered: If it please the king, let it be granted to the Jews, to do to morrow in Susan as they have done to day, and that the ten sons of Aman may be hanged upon gibbets.

dourh@Esther:9:14 @ And the king commanded that it should be so done. And forthwith the edict was hung up in Susan, and the ten sons of Aman were hanged.

dourh@Esther:9:15 @,15And on the fourteenth day of the month Adar the Jews gathered themselves together, and they killed in Susan three hundred men: but they took not their substance.

dourh@Esther:9:16 @ Moreover through all the provinces which were subject to the king's dominion the Jews stood for their lives, and slew their enemies and persecutors: insomuch that the number of them that were Billed amounted to seventy-five thousand, and no man took any of their goods.

dourh@Esther:9:17 @ Now the thirteenth day of the month Adar was the first day with them all of the slaughter, and on the fourteenth day they left off. Which they ordained to be kept holy day, so that all times hereafter they should celebrate it with feasting, joy, and banquets.

dourh@Esther:9:18 @ But they that were killing in the city of Susan, were employed in the slaughter on the thirteenth and fourteenth day of the same month: and on the fifteenth day they rested. And therefore they appointed that day to be a holy day of feasting and gladness.

dourh@Esther:9:19 @ But those Jews that dwelt in towns not walled and in villages, appointed the fourteenth day of the month Adar for banquets and gladness, so as to rejoice on that day, and send one another portions of their banquets and meats.

dourh@Esther:9:20 @ And Mardochai wrote all these things, and sent them comprised in letters to the Jews that abode in all the king's provinces, both those that lay near and those afar off,

dourh@Esther:9:21 @,21That they should receive the fourteenth and fifteenth day of the month Adar for holy days, and always at the return of the year should celebrate them with solemn honour:

dourh@Esther:9:22 @ Because on those days the Jews revenged themselves of their enemies, and their mourning and sorrow were turned into mirth and joy, and that these should be days of feasting and gladness, in which they should send one to another portions of meats; and should give gifts to the poor.

dourh@Esther:9:23 @ And the Jews undertook to observe with solemnity all they had begun to do at that time, which Mardochai by letters had commanded to be done.

dourh@Esther:9:24 @ For Aman, the son of Amadathi of the race of Agag, the enemy and adversary of the Jews, had devised evil against them, to kill them and destroy them: and had cast Phur, that is, the lot.

dourh@Esther:9:25 @ And afterwards Esther went in to the king, beseeching him that his endeavours might be made void by the king's letters: and the evil that he had intended against the Jews, might return upon his own head. And so both he and his sons were hanged upon gibbets.

dourh@Esther:9:26 @ And since that time these days are called Phurim, that is, of lots: because Phur, that is, the lot, was cast into the urn. And all things that were done, are contained in the volume of this epistle, that is, of this book:

dourh@Esther:9:27 @ And the things that they suffered, and that were afterwards changed, the Jews took upon themselves and their seed, and upon all that had a mind to be joined to their religion, so that it should be lawful for none to pass these days without solemnity: which the writing testifieth, and certain times require, as the years continually succeed one another.

dourh@Esther:9:28 @ These are the days which shall never be forgot: and which all provinces in the whole world shall celebrate throughout all generations: neither is there any city wherein the days of Phurim, that is, of lots, must not be observed by the Jews, and by their posterity, which is bound to these ceremonies.

dourh@Esther:9:29 @ And Esther the queen, the daughter of Abihail, and Mardochai the Jew, wrote also a second epistle, that with all diligence this day should be established a festival for the time to come.

dourh@Esther:9:30 @ And they sent to all the Jews that were in the hundred and twenty-seven provinces of king Assuerus, that they should have peace, and receive truth,

dourh@Esther:9:31 @ And observe the days of lots, and celebrate them with joy in their proper time: as Mardochai and Esther had appointed, and they undertook them to be observed by themselves and by their seed, fasts, and cries, and the days of lots,

dourh@Esther:10:2 @ And his strength and his empire, and the dignity and greatness wherewith he exalted Mardochai, are written in the books of the Medes, and of the Persians:

dourh@Esther:10:3 @ And how Mardochai of the race of the Jews, was next after king Assuerus: and great among the Jews, and acceptable to the people of his brethren, seeking the good of his people, and speaking those things which were for the welfare of his seed.
