nasb@Joshua:0:18" @Anyone who rebels against your command and does not obey your words in all that you command him, shall be put to death; only be strong and courageous."

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

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

nasb@Joshua:1:7 @So the men pursued them on the road to the Jordan to the fords; and as soon as those who were pursuing them had gone out, they shut the gate.

nasb@Joshua:1:10" @ For we have heard how the LORD dried up the water of the Red Sea before you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon and Og, whom you utterly destroyed.

nasb@Joshua:1:13 @and spare my father and my mother and my brothers and my sisters, with all who belong to them, and deliver our lives from death."

nasb@Joshua:1:19" @It shall come about that anyone who goes out of the doors of your house into the street, his blood shall be on his own head, and we shall be free; but anyone who is with you in the house, his blood shall be on our head if a hand is laid on him.

nasb@Joshua:2:8" @You shall, moreover, command the priests who are carrying the ark of the covenant, saying, 'When you come to the edge of the waters of the Jordan, you shall stand still in the Jordan.'"

nasb@Joshua:2:13" @It shall come about when the soles of the feet of the priests who carry the ark of the LORD, the Lord of all the earth, rest in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan will be cut off, and the waters which are flowing down from above will stand in one heap."

nasb@Joshua:2:15 @and when those who carried the ark came into the Jordan, and the feet of the priests carrying the ark were dipped in the edge of the water (for the Jordan overflows all its banks all the days of harvest),

nasb@Joshua:2:17 @And the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD stood firm on dry ground in the middle of the Jordan while all Israel crossed on dry ground, until all the nation had finished crossing the Jordan.

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

nasb@Joshua:2:9 @Then Joshua set up twelve stones in the middle of the Jordan at the place where the feet of the priests who carried the ark of the covenant were standing, and they are there to this day.

nasb@Joshua:2:10 @For the priests who carried the ark were standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything was completed that the LORD had commanded Joshua to speak to the people, according to all that Moses had commanded Joshua. And the people hurried and crossed;

nasb@Joshua:2:16" @Command the priests who carry the ark of the testimony that they come up from the Jordan."

nasb@Joshua:2:18 @It came about when the priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD had come up from the middle of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up to the dry ground, that the waters of the Jordan returned to their place, and went over all its banks as before.

nasb@Joshua:3:1 @Now it came about when all the kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan to the west, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard how the LORD had dried up the waters of the Jordan before the sons of Israel until they had crossed, that their hearts melted, and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the sons of Israel.

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

nasb@Joshua:3:5 @For all the people who came out were circumcised, but all the people who were born in the wilderness along the way as they came out of Egypt had not been circumcised.

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

nasb@Joshua:3:7 @Their children whom He raised up in their place, Joshua circumcised; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not circumcised them along the way.

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

nasb@Joshua:4:17" @The city shall be under the ban, it and all that is in it belongs to the LORD; only Rahab the harlot and all who are with her in the house shall live, because she hid the messengers whom we sent.

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

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

nasb@Joshua:4:25 @However, Rahab the harlot and her father's household and all she had, Joshua spared; and she has lived in the midst of Israel to this day, for she hid the messengers whom Joshua sent to spy out Jericho.

nasb@Joshua:4:26 @Then Joshua made them take an oath at that time, saying, " Cursed before the LORD is the man who rises up and builds this city Jericho; with the loss of his firstborn he shall lay its foundation, and with the loss of his youngest son he shall set up its gates."

nasb@Joshua:5:15 @' It shall be that the one who is taken with the things under the ban shall be burned with fire, he and all that belongs to him, because he has transgressed the covenant of the LORD, and because he has committed a disgraceful thing in Israel.'"

nasb@Joshua:5:5" @Then I and all the people who are with me will approach the city. And when they come out to meet us as at the first, we will flee before them.

nasb@Joshua:5:11 @Then all the people of war who were with him went up and drew near and arrived in front of the city, and camped on the north side of Ai. Now there was a valley between him and Ai.

nasb@Joshua:5:16 @And all the people who were in the city were called together to pursue them, and they pursued Joshua and were drawn away from the city.

nasb@Joshua:5:17 @So not a man was left in Ai or Bethel who had not gone out after Israel, and they left the city unguarded and pursued Israel.

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

nasb@Joshua:5:22 @The others came out from the city to encounter them, so that they were trapped in the midst of Israel, some on this side and some on that side; and they slew them until no one was left of those who survived or escaped.

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

nasb@Joshua:5:33 @All Israel with their elders and officers and their judges were standing on both sides of the ark before the Levitical priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD, the stranger as well as the native. Half of them stood in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, just as Moses the servant of the LORD had given command at first to bless the people of Israel.

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

nasb@Joshua:6:1 @Now it came about when all the kings who were beyond the Jordan, in the hill country and in the lowland and on all the coast of the Great Sea toward Lebanon, the Hittite and the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, heard of it,

nasb@Joshua:6:8 @But they said to Joshua, " We are your servants." Then Joshua said to them, "Who are you and where do you come from?"

nasb@Joshua:6:10 @and all that He did to the two kings of the Amorites who were beyond the Jordan, to Sihon king of Heshbon and to Og king of Bashan who was at Ashtaroth.

nasb@Joshua:6:18 @The sons of Israel did not strike them because the leaders of the congregation had sworn to them by the LORD the God of Israel. And the whole congregation grumbled against the leaders.

nasb@Joshua:6:19 @But all the leaders said to the whole congregation, "We have sworn to them by the LORD, the God of Israel, and now we cannot touch them.

nasb@Joshua:6:21 @The leaders said to them, "Let them live." So they became hewers of wood and drawers of water for the whole congregation, just as the leaders had spoken to them.

nasb@Joshua:7:11 @As they fled from before Israel, while they were at the descent of Beth-horon, the LORD threw large stones from heaven on them as far as Azekah, and they died; there were more who died from the hailstones than those whom the sons of Israel killed with the sword.

nasb@Joshua:7:13 @So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, Until the nation avenged themselves of their enemies. Is it not written in the book of Jashar? And the sun stopped in the middle of the sky and did not hasten to go down for about a whole day.

nasb@Joshua:7:20 @It came about when Joshua and the sons of Israel had finished slaying them with a very great slaughter, until they were destroyed, and the survivors who remained of them had entered the fortified cities,

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

nasb@Joshua:7:25 @Joshua then said to them, " Do not fear or be dismayed! Be strong and courageous, for thus the LORD will do to all your enemies with whom you fight."

nasb@Joshua:7:28 @Now Joshua captured Makkedah on that day, and struck it and its king with the edge of the sword; he utterly destroyed it and every person who was in it. He left no survivor. Thus he did to the king of Makkedah just as he had done to the king of Jericho.

nasb@Joshua:7:30 @The LORD gave it also with its king into the hands of Israel, and he struck it and every person who was in it with the edge of the sword. He left no survivor in it. Thus he did to its king just as he had done to the king of Jericho.

nasb@Joshua:7:32 @The LORD gave Lachish into the hands of Israel; and he captured it on the second day, and struck it and every person who was in it with the edge of the sword, according to all that he had done to Libnah.

nasb@Joshua:7:35 @They captured it on that day and struck it with the edge of the sword; and he utterly destroyed that day every person who was in it, according to all that he had done to Lachish.

nasb@Joshua:7:37 @They captured it and struck it and its king and all its cities and all the persons who were in it with the edge of the sword. He left no survivor, according to all that he had done to Eglon. And he utterly destroyed it and every person who was in it.

nasb@Joshua:7:39 @He captured it and its king and all its cities, and they struck them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed every person who was in it. He left no survivor. Just as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir and its king, as he had also done to Libnah and its king.

nasb@Joshua:7:40 @Thus Joshua struck all the land, the hill country and the Negev and the lowland and the slopes and all their kings. He left no survivor, but he utterly destroyed all who breathed, just as the LORD, the God of Israel, had commanded.

nasb@Joshua:8:2 @and to the kings who were of the north in the hill country, and in the Arabah--south of Chinneroth and in the lowland and on the heights of Dor on the west--

nasb@Joshua:8:11 @They struck every person who was in it with the edge of the sword, utterly destroying them; there was no one left who breathed. And he burned Hazor with fire.

nasb@Joshua:8:14 @All the spoil of these cities and the cattle, the sons of Israel took as their plunder; but they struck every man with the edge of the sword, until they had destroyed them. They left no one who breathed.

nasb@Joshua:8:23 @So Joshua took the whole land, according to all that the LORD had spoken to Moses, and Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel according to their divisions by their tribes. Thus the land had rest from war.

nasb@Joshua:9:1 @Now these are the kings of the land whom the sons of Israel defeated, and whose land they possessed beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise, from the valley of the Arnon as far as Mount Hermon, and all the Arabah to the east-

nasb@Joshua:9:2 @Sihon king of the Amorites, who lived in Heshbon, and ruled from Aroer, which is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, both the middle of the valley and half of Gilead, even as far as the brook Jabbok, the border of the sons of Ammon;

nasb@Joshua:9:4 @and the territory of Og king of Bashan, one of the remnant of Rephaim, who lived at Ashtaroth and at Edrei,

nasb@Joshua:9:7 @Now these are the kings of the land whom Joshua and the sons of Israel defeated beyond the Jordan toward the west, from Baal-gad in the valley of Lebanon even as far as Mount Halak, which rises toward Seir; and Joshua gave it to the tribes of Israel as a possession according to their divisions,

nasb@Joshua:9:10 @and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, as far as the border of the sons of Ammon;

nasb@Joshua:9:12 @all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (he alone was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for Moses struck them and dispossessed them.

nasb@Joshua:9:21 @even all the cities of the plain and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses struck with the chiefs of Midian, Evi and Rekem and Zur and Hur and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who lived in the land.

nasb@Joshua:10:8" @Nevertheless my brethren who went up with me made the heart of the people melt with fear; but I followed the LORD my God fully.

nasb@Joshua:11:16 @And Caleb said, "The one who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give him Achsah my daughter as a wife."

nasb@Joshua:12:10 @But they did not drive out the Canaanites who lived in Gezer, so the Canaanites live in the midst of Ephraim to this day, and they became forced laborers.

nasb@Joshua:13:14 @Then the sons of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, "Why have you given me only one lot and one portion for an inheritance, since I am a numerous people whom the LORD has thus far blessed?"

nasb@Joshua:13:16 @The sons of Joseph said, "The hill country is not enough for us, and all the Canaanites who live in the valley land have chariots of iron, both those who are in Beth-shean and its towns and those who are in the valley of Jezreel."

nasb@Joshua:14:1 @Then the whole congregation of the sons of Israel assembled themselves at Shiloh, and set up the tent of meeting there; and the land was subdued before them.

nasb@Joshua:14:2 @There remained among the sons of Israel seven tribes who had not divided their inheritance.

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

nasb@Joshua:15:3 @that the manslayer who kills any person unintentionally, without premeditation, may flee there, and they shall become your refuge from the avenger of blood.

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

nasb@Joshua:15:9 @These were the appointed cities for all the sons of Israel and for the stranger who sojourns among them, that whoever kills any person unintentionally may flee there, and not die by the hand of the avenger of blood until he stands before the congregation.

nasb@Joshua:16:4 @Then the lot came out for the families of the Kohathites. And the sons of Aaron the priest, who were of the Levites, received thirteen cities by lot from the tribe of Judah and from the tribe of the Simeonites and from the tribe of Benjamin.

nasb@Joshua:17:12 @When the sons of Israel heard of it, the whole congregation of the sons of Israel gathered themselves at Shiloh to go up against them in war.

nasb@Joshua:17:16" @Thus says the whole congregation of the LORD, 'What is this unfaithful act which you have committed against the God of Israel, turning away from following the LORD this day, by building yourselves an altar, to rebel against the LORD this day?

nasb@Joshua:17:18 @that you must turn away this day from following the LORD? If you rebel against the LORD today, He will be angry with the whole congregation of Israel tomorrow.

nasb@Joshua:17:30 @So when Phinehas the priest and the leaders of the congregation, even the heads of the families of Israel who were with him, heard the words which the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the sons of Manasseh spoke, it pleased them.

nasb@Joshua:18:3" @And you have seen all that the LORD your God has done to all these nations because of you, for the LORD your God is He who has been fighting for you.

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

nasb@Joshua:19:8 @'Then I brought you into the land of the Amorites who lived beyond the Jordan, and they fought with you; and I gave them into your hand, and you took possession of their land when I destroyed them before you.

nasb@Joshua:19:15" @If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve- whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."

nasb@Joshua:19:17 @for the LORD our God is He who brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and who did these great signs in our sight and preserved us through all the way in which we went and among all the peoples through whose midst we passed.

nasb@Joshua:19:18" @The LORD drove out from before us all the peoples, even the Amorites who lived in the land. We also will serve the LORD, for He is our God."

nasb@Joshua:19:31 @Israel served the LORD all the days of Joshua and all the days of the elders who survived Joshua, and had known all the deeds of the LORD which He had done for Israel.

nasb@Judges:1:1 @Now it came about after the death of Joshua that the sons of Israel inquired of the LORD, saying, "Who shall go up first for us against the Canaanites, to fight against them?"

nasb@Judges:1:10 @So Judah went against the Canaanites who lived in Hebron (now the name of Hebron formerly was Kiriath-arba); and they struck Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai.

nasb@Judges:1:12 @And Caleb said, "The one who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will even give him my daughter Achsah for a wife."

nasb@Judges:1:21 @But the sons of Benjamin did not drive out the Jebusites who lived in Jerusalem; so the Jebusites have lived with the sons of Benjamin in Jerusalem to this day.

nasb@Judges:1:29 @Ephraim did not drive out the Canaanites who were living in Gezer; so the Canaanites lived in Gezer among them.

nasb@Judges:2:7 @The people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who survived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of the LORD which He had done for Israel.

nasb@Judges:2:10 @All that generation also were gathered to their fathers; and there arose another generation after them who did not know the LORD, nor yet the work which He had done for Israel.

nasb@Judges:2:12 @and they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods from among the gods of the peoples who were around them, and bowed themselves down to them; thus they provoked the LORD to anger.

nasb@Judges:2:14 @The anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He gave them into the hands of plunderers who plundered them; and He sold them into the hands of their enemies around them, so that they could no longer stand before their enemies.

nasb@Judges:2:16 @Then the LORD raised up judges who delivered them from the hands of those who plundered them.

nasb@Judges:2:18 @When the LORD raised up judges for them, the LORD was with the judge and delivered them from the hand of their enemies all the days of the judge; for the LORD was moved to pity by their groaning because of those who oppressed and afflicted them.

nasb@Judges:3:1 @Now these are the nations which the LORD left, to test Israel by them (that is, all who had not experienced any of the wars of Canaan;

nasb@Judges:3:2 @only in order that the generations of the sons of Israel might be taught war, those who had not experienced it formerly).

nasb@Judges:3:3 @These nations are- the five lords of the Philistines and all the Canaanites and the Sidonians and the Hivites who lived in Mount Lebanon, from Mount Baal-hermon as far as Lebo-hamath.

nasb@Judges:3:18 @It came about when he had finished presenting the tribute, that he sent away the people who had carried the tribute.

nasb@Judges:3:19 @But he himself turned back from the idols which were at Gilgal, and said, "I have a secret message for you, O king." And he said, "Keep silence." And all who attended him left him.

nasb@Judges:3:31 @After him came Shamgar the son of Anath, who struck down six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad; and he also saved Israel.

nasb@Judges:4:2 @And the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor; and the commander of his army was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth-hagoyim.

nasb@Judges:4:13 @Sisera called together all his chariots, nine hundred iron chariots, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth-hagoyim to the river Kishon.

nasb@Judges:4:22 @And behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him and said to him, "Come, and I will show you the man whom you are seeking." And he entered with her, and behold Sisera was lying dead with the tent peg in his temple.

nasb@Judges:4:10" @ You who ride on white donkeys, You who sit on rich carpets, And you who travel on the road--sing!

nasb@Judges:4:11" @At the sound of those who divide flocks among the watering places, There they shall recount the righteous deeds of the LORD, The righteous deeds for His peasantry in Israel. Then the people of the LORD went down to the gates.

nasb@Judges:4:14" @From Ephraim those whose root is in Amalek came down, Following you, Benjamin, with your peoples; From Machir commanders came down, And from Zebulun those who wield the staff of office.

nasb@Judges:4:18" @ Zebulun was a people who despised their lives even to death, And Naphtali also, on the high places of the field.

nasb@Judges:4:31" @ Thus let all Your enemies perish, O LORD; But let those who love Him be like the rising of the sun in its might." And the land was undisturbed for forty years.

nasb@Judges:5:8 @that the LORD sent a prophet to the sons of Israel, and he said to them, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'It was I who brought you up from Egypt and brought you out from the house of slavery.

nasb@Judges:5:10 @and I said to you, "I am the LORD your God; you shall not fear the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live. But you have not obeyed Me."'"

nasb@Judges:5:17 @So Gideon said to Him, "If now I have found favor in Your sight, then show me a sign that it is You who speak with me.

nasb@Judges:5:29 @They said to one another, "Who did this thing?" And when they searched about and inquired, they said, "Gideon the son of Joash did this thing."

nasb@Judges:5:31 @But Joash said to all who stood against him, "Will you contend for Baal, or will you deliver him? Whoever will plead for him shall be put to death by morning. If he is a god, let him contend for himself, because someone has torn down his altar."

nasb@Judges:6:1 @Then Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the people who were with him, rose early and camped beside the spring of Harod; and the camp of Midian was on the north side of them by the hill of Moreh in the valley.

nasb@Judges:6:2 @The LORD said to Gideon, "The people who are with you are too many for Me to give Midian into their hands, for Israel would become boastful, saying, 'My own power has delivered me.'

nasb@Judges:6:3" @Now therefore come, proclaim in the hearing of the people, saying, ' Whoever is afraid and trembling, let him return and depart from Mount Gilead.'" So 22,000 people returned, but 10,000 remained.

nasb@Judges:6:4 @Then the LORD said to Gideon, "The people are still too many; bring them down to the water and I will test them for you there. Therefore it shall be that he of whom I say to you, 'This one shall go with you,' he shall go with you; but everyone of whom I say to you, 'This one shall not go with you,' he shall not go."

nasb@Judges:6:5 @So he brought the people down to the water. And the LORD said to Gideon, "You shall separate everyone who laps the water with his tongue as a dog laps, as well as everyone who kneels to drink."

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

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

nasb@Judges:6:18" @When I and all who are with me blow the trumpet, then you also blow the trumpets all around the camp and say, 'For the LORD and for Gideon.'"

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

nasb@Judges:6:22 @When they blew 300 trumpets, the LORD set the sword of one against another even throughout the whole army; and the army fled as far as Beth-shittah toward Zererah, as far as the edge of Abel-meholah, by Tabbath.

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

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

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

nasb@Judges:7:11 @Gideon went up by the way of those who lived in tents on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and attacked the camp when the camp was unsuspecting.

nasb@Judges:7:12 @When Zebah and Zalmunna fled, he pursued them and captured the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and routed the whole army.

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

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

nasb@Judges:7:30 @Now Gideon had seventy sons who were his direct descendants, for he had many wives.

nasb@Judges:7:31 @His concubine who was in Shechem also bore him a son, and he named him Abimelech.

nasb@Judges:7:34 @Thus the sons of Israel did not remember the LORD their God, who had delivered them from the hands of all their enemies on every side;

nasb@Judges:7:9 @And Abimelech the son of Jerubbaal went to Shechem to his mother's relatives, and spoke to them and to the whole clan of the household of his mother's father, saying,

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

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

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

nasb@Judges:7:32" @Now therefore, arise by night, you and the people who are with you, and lie in wait in the field.

nasb@Judges:7:33" @In the morning, as soon as the sun is up, you shall rise early and rush upon the city; and behold, when he and the people who are with him come out against you, you shall do to them whatever you can."

nasb@Judges:7:34 @So Abimelech and all the people who were with him arose by night and lay in wait against Shechem in four companies.

nasb@Judges:7:35 @Now Gaal the son of Ebed went out and stood in the entrance of the city gate; and Abimelech and the people who were with him arose from the ambush.

nasb@Judges:7:38 @Then Zebul said to him, "Where is your boasting now with which you said, 'Who is Abimelech that we should serve him?' Is this not the people whom you despised? Go out now and fight with them!"

nasb@Judges:7:44 @Then Abimelech and the company who was with him dashed forward and stood in the entrance of the city gate; the other two companies then dashed against all who were in the field and slew them.

nasb@Judges:7:45 @Abimelech fought against the city all that day, and he captured the city and killed the people who were in it; then he razed the city and sowed it with salt.

nasb@Judges:7:48 @So Abimelech went up to Mount Zalmon, he and all the people who were with him; and Abimelech took an axe in his hand and cut down a branch from the trees, and lifted it and laid it on his shoulder. Then he said to the people who were with him, "What you have seen me do, hurry and do likewise."

nasb@Judges:8:4 @He had thirty sons who rode on thirty donkeys, and they had thirty cities in the land of Gilead that are called Havvoth-jair to this day.

nasb@Judges:8:8 @They afflicted and crushed the sons of Israel that year; for eighteen years they afflicted all the sons of Israel who were beyond the Jordan in Gilead in the land of the Amorites.

nasb@Judges:8:18 @The people, the leaders of Gilead, said to one another, "Who is the man who will begin to fight against the sons of AmmonNULL He shall become head over all the inhabitants of Gilead."

nasb@Judges:9:35 @When he saw her, he tore his clothes and said, "Alas, my daughter! You have brought me very low, and you are among those who trouble me; for I have given my word to the LORD, and I cannot take it back."

nasb@Judges:9:39 @At the end of two months she returned to her father, who did to her according to the vow which he had made; and she had no relations with a man. Thus it became a custom in Israel,

nasb@Judges:10:9 @He had thirty sons, and thirty daughters whom he gave in marriage outside the family, and he brought in thirty daughters from outside for his sons. And he judged Israel seven years.

nasb@Judges:10:14 @He had forty sons and thirty grandsons who rode on seventy donkeys; and he judged Israel eight years.

nasb@Judges:11:2 @There was a certain man of Zorah, of the family of the Danites, whose name was Manoah; and his wife was barren and had borne no children.

nasb@Judges:11:8 @Then Manoah entreated the LORD and said, "O Lord, please let the man of God whom You have sent come to us again that he may teach us what to do for the boy who is to be born."

nasb@Judges:11:10 @So the woman ran quickly and told her husband, "Behold, the man who came the other day has appeared to me."

nasb@Judges:11:11 @Then Manoah arose and followed his wife, and when he came to the man he said to him, "Are you the man who spoke to the woman?" And he said, "I am."

nasb@Judges:12:19 @Then the Spirit of the LORD came upon him mightily, and he went down to Ashkelon and killed thirty of them and took their spoil and gave the changes of clothes to those who told the riddle. And his anger burned, and he went up to his father's house.

nasb@Judges:12:20 @But Samson's wife was given to his companion who had been his friend.

nasb@Judges:13:6 @Then the Philistines said, "Who did this?" And they said, "Samson, the son-in-law of the Timnite, because he took his wife and gave her to his companion." So the Philistines came up and burned her and her father with fire.

nasb@Judges:14:4 @After this it came about that he loved a woman in the valley of Sorek, whose name was Delilah.

nasb@Judges:14:24 @When the people saw him, they praised their god, for they said, "Our god has given our enemy into our hands, Even the destroyer of our country, Who has slain many of us."

nasb@Judges:14:26 @Then Samson said to the boy who was holding his hand, "Let me feel the pillars on which the house rests, that I may lean against them."

nasb@Judges:14:30 @And Samson said, "Let me die with the Philistines!" And he bent with all his might so that the house fell on the lords and all the people who were in it. So the dead whom he killed at his death were more than those whom he killed in his life.

nasb@Judges:15:1 @Now there was a man of the hill country of Ephraim whose name was Micah.

nasb@Judges:15:3 @He then returned the eleven hundred pieces of silver to his mother, and his mother said, "I wholly dedicate the silver from my hand to the LORD for my son to make a graven image and a molten image; now therefore, I will return them to you."

nasb@Judges:15:4 @So when he returned the silver to his mother, his mother took two hundred pieces of silver and gave them to the silversmith who made them into a graven image and a molten image, and they were in the house of Micah.

nasb@Judges:15:7 @Now there was a young man from Bethlehem in Judah, of the family of Judah, who was a Levite; and he was staying there.

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

nasb@Judges:16:3 @When they were near the house of Micah, they recognized the voice of the young man, the Levite; and they turned aside there and said to him, "Who brought you here? And what are you doing in this place? And what do you have here?"

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

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

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

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

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

nasb@Judges:16:23 @They cried to the sons of Dan, who turned around and said to Micah, "What is the matter with you, that you have assembled together?"

nasb@Judges:16:27 @Then they took what Micah had made and the priest who had belonged to him, and came to Laish, to a people quiet and secure, and struck them with the edge of the sword; and they burned the city with fire.

nasb@Judges:16:29 @They called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father who was born in Israel; however, the name of the city formerly was Laish.

nasb@Judges:17:1 @Now it came about in those days, when there was no king in Israel, that there was a certain Levite staying in the remote part of the hill country of Ephraim, who took a concubine for himself from Bethlehem in Judah.

nasb@Judges:17:12 @However, his master said to him, "We will not turn aside into the city of foreigners who are not of the sons of Israel; but we will go on as far as Gibeah."

nasb@Judges:17:19" @Yet there is both straw and fodder for our donkeys, and also bread and wine for me, your maidservant, and the young man who is with your servants; there is no lack of anything."

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

nasb@Judges:17:30 @All who saw it said, "Nothing like this has ever happened or been seen from the day when the sons of Israel came up from the land of Egypt to this day. Consider it, take counsel and speak up!"

nasb@Judges:18:2 @The chiefs of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, took their stand in the assembly of the people of God, 400,000 foot soldiers who drew the sword.

nasb@Judges:18:4 @So the Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered and said, "I came with my concubine to spend the night at Gibeah which belongs to Benjamin.

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

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

nasb@Judges:18:18 @Now the sons of Israel arose, went up to Bethel, and inquired of God and said, "Who shall go up first for us to battle against the sons of Benjamin?" Then the LORD said, "Judah shall go up first."

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

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

nasb@Judges:18:40 @But when the cloud began to rise from the city in a column of smoke, Benjamin looked behind them; and behold, the whole city was going up in smoke to heaven.

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

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

nasb@Judges:19:5 @Then the sons of Israel said, "Who is there among all the tribes of Israel who did not come up in the assembly to the LORD?" For they had taken a great oath concerning him who did not come up to the LORD at Mizpah, saying, "He shall surely be put to death."

nasb@Judges:19:12 @And they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead 400 young virgins who had not known a man by lying with him; and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.

nasb@Judges:19:13 @Then the whole congregation sent word and spoke to the sons of Benjamin who were at the rock of Rimmon, and proclaimed peace to them.

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

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

nasb@Judges:19:18" @But we cannot give them wives of our daughters." For the sons of Israel had sworn, saying, "Cursed is he who gives a wife to Benjamin."

nasb@Judges:19:23 @The sons of Benjamin did so, and took wives according to their number from those who danced, whom they carried away. And they went and returned to their inheritance and rebuilt the cities and lived in them.

nasb@Ruth:1:22 @So Naomi returned, and with her Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter-in-law, who returned from the land of Moab. And they came to Bethlehem at the beginning of barley harvest.

nasb@Ruth:2:20 @Naomi said to her daughter-in-law, " May he be blessed of the LORD who has not withdrawn his kindness to the living and to the dead." Again Naomi said to her, "The man is our relative, he is one of our closest relatives."

nasb@Ruth:2:9 @He said, "Who are you?" And she answered, "I am Ruth your maid. So spread your covering over your maid, for you are a close relative."

nasb@Ruth:3:1 @Now Boaz went up to the gate and sat down there, and behold, the close relative of whom Boaz spoke was passing by, so he said, "Turn aside, friend, sit down here." And he turned aside and sat down.

nasb@Ruth:3:3 @Then he said to the closest relative, "Naomi, who has come back from the land of Moab, has to sell the piece of land which belonged to our brother Elimelech.

nasb@Ruth:3:4" @So I thought to inform you, saying, ' Buy it before those who are sitting here, and before the elders of my people.

nasb@Ruth:3:11 @All the people who were in the court, and the elders, said, "We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman who is coming into your home like Rachel and Leah, both of whom built the house of Israel; and may you achieve wealth in Ephrathah and become famous in Bethlehem.

nasb@Ruth:3:12" @Moreover, may your house be like the house of Perez whom Tamar bore to Judah, through the offspring which the LORD will give you by this young woman."

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

nasb@Ruth:3:15" @May he also be to you a restorer of life and a sustainer of your old age; for your daughter-in-law, who loves you and is better to you than seven sons, has given birth to him."

nasb@1Samuel:9:2 @He had a son whose name was Saul, a choice and handsome man, and there was not a more handsome person than he among the sons of Israel; from his shoulders and up he was taller than any of the people.

nasb@1Kings:19:14 @Ahab said, "By whom?" So he said, "Thus says the LORD, 'By the young men of the rulers of the provinces.'" Then he said, "Who shall begin the battle?" And he answered, "You."

nasb@1Kings:19:16 @They went out at noon, while Ben-hadad was drinking himself drunk in the temporary shelters with the thirty-two kings who helped him.

nasb@1Kings:19:30 @But the rest fled to Aphek into the city, and the wall fell on 27,000 men who were left. And Ben-hadad fled and came into the city into an inner chamber.

nasb@1Kings:20:25 @Surely there was no one like Ahab who sold himself to do evil in the sight of the LORD, because Jezebel his wife incited him.

nasb@1Kings:20:26 @He acted very abominably in following idols, according to all that the Amorites had done, whom the LORD cast out before the sons of Israel.

nasb@1Kings:21:8 @The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of the LORD, but I hate him, because he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil. He is Micaiah son of Imlah." But Jehoshaphat said, "Let not the king say so."

nasb@1Kings:21:13 @Then the messenger who went to summon Micaiah spoke to him saying, "Behold now, the words of the prophets are uniformly favorable to the king. Please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak favorably."

nasb@2Kings:1:7 @He said to them, "What kind of man was he who came up to meet you and spoke these words to you?"

nasb@2Kings:2:3 @Then the sons of the prophets who were at Bethel came out to Elisha and said to him, "Do you know that the LORD will take away your master from over you today?" And he said, "Yes, I know; be still."

nasb@2Kings:3:14 @Elisha said, " As the LORD of hosts lives, before whom I stand, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look at you nor see you.

nasb@2Kings:5:12 @One of his servants said, "No, my lord, O king; but Elisha, the prophet who is in Israel, tells the king of Israel the words that you speak in your bedroom."

nasb@2Kings:5:16 @So he answered, " Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them."

nasb@2Kings:5:19 @Then Elisha said to them, "This is not the way, nor is this the city; follow me and I will bring you to the man whom you seek." And he brought them to Samaria.

nasb@2Kings:6:17 @Now the king appointed the royal officer on whose hand he leaned to have charge of the gate; but the people trampled on him at the gate, and he died just as the man of God had said, who spoke when the king came down to him.

nasb@2Kings:7:1 @Now Elisha spoke to the woman whose son he had restored to life, saying, "Arise and go with your household, and sojourn wherever you can sojourn; for the LORD has called for a famine, and it will even come on the land for seven years."

nasb@2Kings:7:5 @As he was relating to the king how he had restored to life the one who was dead, behold, the woman whose son he had restored to life appealed to the king for her house and for her field.

nasb@2Kings:7:13 @Then Hazael said, "But what is your servant, who is but a dog, that he should do this great thing?" And Elisha answered, " The LORD has shown me that you will be king over Aram."

nasb@2Kings:7:14 @So he departed from Elisha and returned to his master, who said to him, "What did Elisha say to you?" And he answered, "He told me that you would surely recover."

nasb@2Kings:7:32 @Then he lifted up his face to the window and said, "Who is on my side? Who?" And two or three officials looked down at him.

nasb@2Kings:7:5 @And the one who was over the household, and he who was over the city, the elders, and the guardians of the children, sent word to Jehu, saying, " We are your servants, all that you say to us we will do, we will not make any man king; do what is good in your sight."

nasb@2Kings:7:6 @Then he wrote a letter to them a second time saying, "If you are on my side, and you will listen to my voice, take the heads of the men, your master's sons, and come to me at Jezreel tomorrow about this time."

nasb@2Kings:7:9 @Now in the morning he went out and stood and said to all the people, "You are innocent; behold, I conspired against my master and killed him, but who killed all these?

nasb@2Kings:7:11 @So Jehu killed all who remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men and his acquaintances and his priests, until he left him without a survivor.

nasb@2Kings:7:13 @Jehu met the relatives of Ahaziah king of Judah and said, "Who are you?" And they answered, "We are the relatives of Ahaziah; and we have come down to greet the sons of the king and the sons of the queen mother."

nasb@2Kings:7:19" @Now, summon all the prophets of Baal, all his worshipers and all his priests; let no one be missing, for I have a great sacrifice for Baal; whoever is missing shall not live." But Jehu did it in cunning, so that he might destroy the worshipers of Baal.

nasb@2Kings:7:21 @Then Jehu sent throughout Israel and all the worshipers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left who did not come. And when they went into the house of Baal, the house of Baal was filled from one end to the other.

nasb@2Kings:7:22 @He said to the one who was in charge of the wardrobe, "Bring out garments for all the worshipers of Baal." So he brought out garments for them.

nasb@2Kings:7:24 @Then they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had stationed for himself eighty men outside, and he had said, " The one who permits any of the men whom I bring into your hands to escape shall give up his life in exchange."

nasb@2Kings:8:2 @But Jehosheba, the daughter of King Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah and stole him from among the king's sons who were being put to death, and placed him and his nurse in the bedroom. So they hid him from Athaliah, and he was not put to death.

nasb@2Kings:14:5 @Then the king of Assyria invaded the whole land and went up to Samaria and besieged it three years.

nasb@1Chronicles:12:2 @David said to all the assembly of Israel, "If it seems good to you, and if it is from the LORD our God, let us send everywhere to our kinsmen who remain in all the land of Israel, also to the priests and Levites who are with them in their cities with pasture lands, that they may meet with us;

nasb@1Chronicles:14:26 @Because God was helping the Levites who were carrying the ark of the covenant of the LORD, they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.

nasb@1Chronicles:18:7 @So they hired for themselves 32,000 chariots, and the king of Maacah and his people, who came and camped before Medeba. And the sons of Ammon gathered together from their cities and came to battle.

nasb@1Chronicles:18:9 @The sons of Ammon came out and drew up in battle array at the entrance of the city, and the kings who had come were by themselves in the field.

nasb@1Chronicles:18:14 @So Joab and the people who were with him drew near to the battle against the Arameans, and they fled before him.

nasb@1Chronicles:18:16 @When the Arameans saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they sent messengers and brought out the Arameans who were beyond the River, with Shophach the commander of the army of Hadadezer leading them.

nasb@1Chronicles:19:3 @He brought out the people who were in it, and cut them with saws and with sharp instruments and with axes. And thus David did to all the cities of the sons of Ammon. Then David and all the people returned to Jerusalem.

nasb@1Chronicles:19:5 @And there was war with the Philistines again, and Elhanan the son of Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.

nasb@1Chronicles:19:6 @Again there was war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot; and he also was descended from the giants.

nasb@1Chronicles:20:5 @Joab gave the number of the census of all the people to David. And all Israel were 1,100,000 men who drew the sword; and Judah was 470,000 men who drew the sword.

nasb@2Chronicles:21:11 @But Jehoshabeath the king's daughter took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons who were being put to death, and placed him and his nurse in the bedroom.

nasb@Nehemiah:1:9 @but if you return to Me and keep My commandments and do them, though those of you who have been scattered were in the most remote part of the heavens, I will gather them from there and will bring them to the place where I have chosen to cause My name to dwell.'

nasb@Nehemiah:1:10" @ They are Your servants and Your people whom You redeemed by Your great power and by Your strong hand.

nasb@Nehemiah:1:11" @O Lord, I beseech You, may Your ear be attentive to the prayer of Your servant and the prayer of Your servants who delight to revere Your name, and make Your servant successful today and grant him compassion before this man." Now I was the cupbearer to the king.

nasb@Nehemiah:2:16 @The officials did not know where I had gone or what I had done; nor had I as yet told the Jews, the priests, the nobles, the officials or the rest who did the work.

nasb@Nehemiah:4:6 @So we built the wall and the whole wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.

nasb@Nehemiah:4:12 @When the Jews who lived near them came and told us ten times, "They will come up against us from every place where you may turn,"

nasb@Nehemiah:4:14 @When I saw their fear, I rose and spoke to the nobles, the officials and the rest of the people- " Do not be afraid of them; remember the Lord who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, your daughters, your wives and your houses."

nasb@Nehemiah:4:16 @From that day on, half of my servants carried on the work while half of them held the spears, the shields, the bows and the breastplates; and the captains were behind the whole house of Judah.

nasb@Nehemiah:4:17 @Those who were rebuilding the wall and those who carried burdens took their load with one hand doing the work and the other holding a weapon.

nasb@Nehemiah:4:23 @So neither I, my brothers, my servants, nor the men of the guard who followed me, none of us removed our clothes, each took his weapon even to the water.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:2 @For there were those who said, "We, our sons and our daughters are many; therefore let us get grain that we may eat and live."

nasb@Nehemiah:5:3 @There were others who said, "We are mortgaging our fields, our vineyards and our houses that we might get grain because of the famine."

nasb@Nehemiah:5:4 @Also there were those who said, "We have borrowed money for the king's tax on our fields and our vineyards.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:8 @I said to them, "We according to our ability have redeemed our Jewish brothers who were sold to the nations; now would you even sell your brothers that they may be sold to us?" Then they were silent and could not find a word to say.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:13 @I also shook out the front of my garment and said, "Thus may God shake out every man from his house and from his possessions who does not fulfill this promise; even thus may he be shaken out and emptied." And all the assembly said, "Amen!" And they praised the LORD. Then the people did according to this promise.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:15 @But the former governors who were before me laid burdens on the people and took from them bread and wine besides forty shekels of silver; even their servants domineered the people. But I did not do so because of the fear of God.

nasb@Nehemiah:5:17 @Moreover, there were at my table one hundred and fifty Jews and officials, besides those who came to us from the nations that were around us.

nasb@Nehemiah:6:10 @When I entered the house of Shemaiah the son of Delaiah, son of Mehetabel, who was confined at home, he said, "Let us meet together in the house of God, within the temple, and let us close the doors of the temple, for they are coming to kill you, and they are coming to kill you at night."

nasb@Nehemiah:6:14 @Remember, O my God, Tobiah and Sanballat according to these works of theirs, and also Noadiah the prophetess and the rest of the prophets who were trying to frighten me.

nasb@Nehemiah:7:5 @Then my God put it into my heart to assemble the nobles, the officials and the people to be enrolled by genealogies. Then I found the book of the genealogy of those who came up first in which I found the following record-

nasb@Nehemiah:7:6 @These are the people of the province who came up from the captivity of the exiles whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had carried away, and who returned to Jerusalem and Judah, each to his city,

nasb@Nehemiah:7:7 @who came with Zerubbabel, Jeshua, Nehemiah, Azariah, Raamiah, Nahamani, Mordecai, Bilshan, Mispereth, Bigvai, Nehum, Baanah. The number of men of the people of Israel-

nasb@Nehemiah:7:61 @These were they who came up from Tel-melah, Tel-harsha, Cherub, Addon and Immer; but they could not show their fathers' houses or their descendants, whether they were of Israel-

nasb@Nehemiah:7:63 @Of the priests- the sons of Hobaiah, the sons of Hakkoz, the sons of Barzillai, who took a wife of the daughters of Barzillai, the Gileadite, and was named after them.

nasb@Nehemiah:7:66 @The whole assembly together was 42,360,

nasb@Nehemiah:7:67 @besides their male and their female servants, of whom there were 7,337; and they had 245 male and female singers.

nasb@Nehemiah:8:2 @Then Ezra the priest brought the law before the assembly of men, women and all who could listen with understanding, on the first day of the seventh month.

nasb@Nehemiah:8:3 @He read from it before the square which was in front of the Water Gate from early morning until midday, in the presence of men and women, those who could understand; and all the people were attentive to the book of the law.

nasb@Nehemiah:8:9 @Then Nehemiah, who was the governor, and Ezra the priest and scribe, and the Levites who taught the people said to all the people, " This day is holy to the LORD your God; do not mourn or weep." For all the people were weeping when they heard the words of the law.

nasb@Nehemiah:8:10 @Then he said to them, "Go, eat of the fat, drink of the sweet, and send portions to him who has nothing prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your strength."

nasb@Nehemiah:8:17 @The entire assembly of those who had returned from the captivity made booths and lived in them. The sons of Israel had indeed not done so from the days of Joshua the son of Nun to that day. And there was great rejoicing.

nasb@Nehemiah:9:7" @You are the LORD God, Who chose Abram And brought him out from Ur of the Chaldees, And gave him the name Abraham.

nasb@Nehemiah:9:18" @Even when they made for themselves A calf of molten metal And said, 'This is your God Who brought you up from Egypt,' And committed great blasphemies,

nasb@Nehemiah:9:26" @ But they became disobedient and rebelled against You, And cast Your law behind their backs And killed Your prophets who had admonished them So that they might return to You, And they committed great blasphemies.

nasb@Nehemiah:9:27" @Therefore You delivered them into the hand of their oppressors who oppressed them, But when they cried to You in the time of their distress, You heard from heaven, and according to Your great compassion You gave them deliverers who delivered them from the hand of their oppressors.

nasb@Nehemiah:9:32" @Now therefore, our God, the great, the mighty, and the awesome God, who keeps covenant and lovingkindness, Do not let all the hardship seem insignificant before You, Which has come upon us, our kings, our princes, our priests, our prophets, our fathers and on all Your people, From the days of the kings of Assyria to this day.

nasb@Nehemiah:9:37" @ Its abundant produce is for the kings Whom You have set over us because of our sins; They also rule over our bodies And over our cattle as they please, So we are in great distress.

nasb@Nehemiah:10:28 @Now the rest of the people, the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, the singers, the temple servants and all those who had separated themselves from the peoples of the lands to the law of God, their wives, their sons and their daughters, all those who had knowledge and understanding,

nasb@Nehemiah:10:31 @As for the peoples of the land who bring wares or any grain on the sabbath day to sell, we will not buy from them on the sabbath or a holy day; and we will forego the crops the seventh year and the exaction of every debt.

nasb@Nehemiah:10:36 @and bring to the house of our God the firstborn of our sons and of our cattle, and the firstborn of our herds and our flocks as it is written in the law, for the priests who are ministering in the house of our God.

nasb@Nehemiah:10:37 @We will also bring the first of our dough, our contributions, the fruit of every tree, the new wine and the oil to the priests at the chambers of the house of our God, and the tithe of our ground to the Levites, for the Levites are they who receive the tithes in all the rural towns.

nasb@Nehemiah:10:39 @For the sons of Israel and the sons of Levi shall bring the contribution of the grain, the new wine and the oil to the chambers; there are the utensils of the sanctuary, the priests who are ministering, the gatekeepers and the singers. Thus we will not neglect the house of our God.

nasb@Nehemiah:11:2 @And the people blessed all the men who volunteered to live in Jerusalem.

nasb@Nehemiah:11:3 @Now these are the heads of the provinces who lived in Jerusalem, but in the cities of Judah each lived on his own property in their cities--the Israelites, the priests, the Levites, the temple servants and the descendants of Solomon's servants.

nasb@Nehemiah:11:6 @All the sons of Perez who lived in Jerusalem were 468 able men.

nasb@Nehemiah:11:12 @and their kinsmen who performed the work of the temple, 822; and Adaiah the son of Jeroham, the son of Pelaliah, the son of Amzi, the son of Zechariah, the son of Pashhur, the son of Malchijah,

nasb@Nehemiah:11:16 @and Shabbethai and Jozabad, from the leaders of the Levites, who were in charge of the outside work of the house of God;

nasb@Nehemiah:11:17 @and Mattaniah the son of Mica, the son of Zabdi, the son of Asaph, who was the leader in beginning the thanksgiving at prayer, and Bakbukiah, the second among his brethren; and Abda the son of Shammua, the son of Galal, the son of Jeduthun.

nasb@Nehemiah:11:19 @Also the gatekeepers, Akkub, Talmon and their brethren who kept watch at the gates, were 172.

nasb@Nehemiah:11:22 @Now the overseer of the Levites in Jerusalem was Uzzi the son of Bani, the son of Hashabiah, the son of Mattaniah, the son of Mica, from the sons of Asaph, who were the singers for the service of the house of God.

nasb@Nehemiah:12:1 @Now these are the priests and the Levites who came up with Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, and Jeshua- Seraiah, Jeremiah, Ezra,

nasb@Nehemiah:12:8 @The Levites were Jeshua, Binnui, Kadmiel, Sherebiah, Judah, and Mattaniah who was in charge of the songs of thanksgiving, he and his brothers.

nasb@Nehemiah:12:44 @On that day men were also appointed over the chambers for the stores, the contributions, the first fruits and the tithes, to gather into them from the fields of the cities the portions required by the law for the priests and Levites; for Judah rejoiced over the priests and Levites who served.

nasb@Nehemiah:13:4 @Now prior to this, Eliashib the priest, who was appointed over the chambers of the house of our God, being related to Tobiah,

nasb@Nehemiah:13:10 @I also discovered that the portions of the Levites had not been given them, so that the Levites and the singers who performed the service had gone away, each to his own field.

nasb@Nehemiah:13:15 @In those days I saw in Judah some who were treading wine presses on the sabbath, and bringing in sacks of grain and loading them on donkeys, as well as wine, grapes, figs and all kinds of loads, and they brought them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day. So I admonished them on the day they sold food.

nasb@Nehemiah:13:16 @Also men of Tyre were living there who imported fish and all kinds of merchandise, and sold them to the sons of Judah on the sabbath, even in Jerusalem.

nasb@Esther:1:1 @Now it took place in the days of Ahasuerus, the Ahasuerus who reigned from India to Ethiopia over 127 provinces,

nasb@Esther:1:5 @When these days were completed, the king gave a banquet lasting seven days for all the people who were present at the citadel in Susa, from the greatest to the least, in the court of the garden of the king's palace.

nasb@Esther:1:10 @On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar and Carkas, the seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus,

nasb@Esther:1:13 @Then the king said to the wise men who understood the times--for it was the custom of the king so to speak before all who knew law and justice

nasb@Esther:1:14 @and were close to him- Carshena, Shethar, Admatha, Tarshish, Meres, Marsena and Memucan, the seven princes of Persia and Media who had access to the king's presence and sat in the first place in the kingdom--

nasb@Esther:1:16 @In the presence of the king and the princes, Memucan said, "Queen Vashti has wronged not only the king but also all the princes and all the peoples who are in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus.

nasb@Esther:1:18" @This day the ladies of Persia and Media who have heard of the queen's conduct will speak in the same way to all the king's princes, and there will be plenty of contempt and anger.

nasb@Esther:1:19" @If it pleases the king, let a royal edict be issued by him and let it be written in the laws of Persia and Media so that it cannot be repealed, that Vashti may no longer come into the presence of King Ahasuerus, and let the king give her royal position to another who is more worthy than she.

nasb@Esther:1:22 @So he sent letters to all the king's provinces, to each province according to its script and to every people according to their language, that every man should be the master in his own house and the one who speaks in the language of his own people.

nasb@Esther:2:2 @Then the king's attendants, who served him, said, " Let beautiful young virgins be sought for the king.

nasb@Esther:2:3" @Let the king appoint overseers in all the provinces of his kingdom that they may gather every beautiful young virgin to the citadel of Susa, to the harem, into the custody of Hegai, the king's eunuch, who is in charge of the women; and let their cosmetics be given them.

nasb@Esther:2:4" @Then let the young lady who pleases the king be queen in place of Vashti." And the matter pleased the king, and he did accordingly.

nasb@Esther:2:5 @Now there was at the citadel in Susa a Jew whose name was Mordecai, the son of Jair, the son of Shimei, the son of Kish, a Benjamite,

nasb@Esther:2:6 @who had been taken into exile from Jerusalem with the captives who had been exiled with Jeconiah king of Judah, whom Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon had exiled.

nasb@Esther:2:8 @So it came about when the command and decree of the king were heard and many young ladies were gathered to the citadel of Susa into the custody of Hegai, that Esther was taken to the king's palace into the custody of Hegai, who was in charge of the women.

nasb@Esther:2:14 @In the evening she would go in and in the morning she would return to the second harem, to the custody of Shaashgaz, the king's eunuch who was in charge of the concubines. She would not again go in to the king unless the king delighted in her and she was summoned by name.

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

nasb@Esther:2:21 @In those days, while Mordecai was sitting at the king's gate, Bigthan and Teresh, two of the king's officials from those who guarded the door, became angry and sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

nasb@Esther:3:1 @After these events King Ahasuerus promoted Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him and established his authority over all the princes who were with him.

nasb@Esther:3:2 @All the king's servants who were at the king's gate bowed down and paid homage to Haman; for so the king had commanded concerning him. But Mordecai neither bowed down nor paid homage.

nasb@Esther:3:3 @Then the king's servants who were at the king's gate said to Mordecai, " Why are you transgressing the king's command?"

nasb@Esther:3:6 @But he disdained to lay hands on Mordecai alone, for they had told him who the people of Mordecai were; therefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews, the people of Mordecai, who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus.

nasb@Esther:3:9" @If it is pleasing to the king, let it be decreed that they be destroyed, and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver into the hands of those who carry on the king's business, to put into the king's treasuries."

nasb@Esther:3:12 @Then the king's scribes were summoned on the thirteenth day of the first month, and it was written just as Haman commanded to the king's satraps, to the governors who were over each province and to the princes of each people, each province according to its script, each people according to its language, being written in the name of King Ahasuerus and sealed with the king's signet ring.

nasb@Esther:4:5 @Then Esther summoned Hathach from the king's eunuchs, whom the king had appointed to attend her, and ordered him to go to Mordecai to learn what this was and why it was.

nasb@Esther:4:11" @All the king's servants and the people of the king's provinces know that for any man or woman who comes to the king to the inner court who is not summoned, he has but one law, that he be put to death, unless the king holds out to him the golden scepter so that he may live. And I have not been summoned to come to the king for these thirty days."

nasb@Esther:4:14" @For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place and you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?"

nasb@Esther:4:16" @Go, assemble all the Jews who are found in Susa, and fast for me; do not eat or drink for three days, night or day. I and my maidens also will fast in the same way. And thus I will go in to the king, which is not according to the law; and if I perish, I perish."

nasb@Esther:6:2 @It was found written what Mordecai had reported concerning Bigthana and Teresh, two of the king's eunuchs who were doorkeepers, that they had sought to lay hands on King Ahasuerus.

nasb@Esther:6:3 @The king said, "What honor or dignity has been bestowed on Mordecai for this?" Then the king's servants who attended him said, "Nothing has been done for him."

nasb@Esther:6:4 @So the king said, "Who is in the court?" Now Haman had just entered the outer court of the king's palace in order to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows which he had prepared for him.

nasb@Esther:6:6 @So Haman came in and the king said to him, "What is to be done for the man whom the king desires to honor?" And Haman said to himself, "Whom would the king desire to honor more than me?"

nasb@Esther:6:7 @Then Haman said to the king, "For the man whom the king desires to honor,

nasb@Esther:6:8 @let them bring a royal robe which the king has worn, and the horse on which the king has ridden, and on whose head a royal crown has been placed;

nasb@Esther:6:9 @and let the robe and the horse be handed over to one of the king's most noble princes and let them array the man whom the king desires to honor and lead him on horseback through the city square, and proclaim before him, 'Thus it shall be done to the man whom the king desires to honor.'"

nasb@Esther:6:10 @Then the king said to Haman, "Take quickly the robes and the horse as you have said, and do so for Mordecai the Jew, who is sitting at the king's gate; do not fall short in anything of all that you have said."

nasb@Esther:6:11 @So Haman took the robe and the horse, and arrayed Mordecai, and led him on horseback through the city square, and proclaimed before him, "Thus it shall be done to the man whom the king desires to honor."

nasb@Esther:6:13 @Haman recounted to Zeresh his wife and all his friends everything that had happened to him. Then his wise men and Zeresh his wife said to him, "If Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish origin, you will not overcome him, but will surely fall before him."

nasb@Esther:7:5 @Then King Ahasuerus asked Queen Esther, "Who is he, and where is he, who would presume to do thus?"

nasb@Esther:7:9 @Then Harbonah, one of the eunuchs who were before the king said, "Behold indeed, the gallows standing at Haman's house fifty cubits high, which Haman made for Mordecai who spoke good on behalf of the king!" And the king said, "Hang him on it."

nasb@Esther:8:5 @Then she said, " If it pleases the king and if I have found favor before him and the matter seems proper to the king and I am pleasing in his sight, let it be written to revoke the letters devised by Haman, the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, which he wrote to destroy the Jews who are in all the king's provinces.

nasb@Esther:8:11 @In them the king granted the Jews who were in each and every city the right to assemble and to defend their lives, to destroy, to kill and to annihilate the entire army of any people or province which might attack them, including children and women, and to plunder their spoil,

nasb@Esther:9:1 @Now in the twelfth month (that is, the month Adar), on the thirteenth day when the king's command and edict were about to be executed, on the day when the enemies of the Jews hoped to gain the mastery over them, it was turned to the contrary so that the Jews themselves gained the mastery over those who hated them.

nasb@Esther:9:2 @The Jews assembled in their cities throughout all the provinces of King Ahasuerus to lay hands on those who sought their harm; and no one could stand before them, for the dread of them had fallen on all the peoples.

nasb@Esther:9:3 @Even all the princes of the provinces, the satraps, the governors and those who were doing the king's business assisted the Jews, because the dread of Mordecai had fallen on them.

nasb@Esther:9:5 @Thus the Jews struck all their enemies with the sword, killing and destroying; and they did what they pleased to those who hated them.

nasb@Esther:9:11 @On that day the number of those who were killed at the citadel in Susa was reported to the king.

nasb@Esther:9:13 @Then said Esther, "If it pleases the king, let tomorrow also be granted to the Jews who are in Susa to do according to the edict of today; and let Haman's ten sons be hanged on the gallows."

nasb@Esther:9:15 @The Jews who were in Susa assembled also on the fourteenth day of the month Adar and killed three hundred men in Susa, but they did not lay their hands on the plunder.

nasb@Esther:9:16 @Now the rest of the Jews who were in the king's provinces assembled, to defend their lives and rid themselves of their enemies, and kill 75,000 of those who hated them; but they did not lay their hands on the plunder.

nasb@Esther:9:18 @But the Jews who were in Susa assembled on the thirteenth and the fourteenth of the same month, and they rested on the fifteenth day and made it a day of feasting and rejoicing.

nasb@Esther:9:19 @Therefore the Jews of the rural areas, who live in the rural towns, make the fourteenth day of the month Adar a holiday for rejoicing and feasting and sending portions of food to one another.

nasb@Esther:9:20 @Then Mordecai recorded these events, and he sent letters to all the Jews who were in all the provinces of King Ahasuerus, both near and far,

nasb@Esther:9:27 @the Jews established and made a custom for themselves and for their descendants and for all those who allied themselves with them, so that they would not fail to celebrate these two days according to their regulation and according to their appointed time annually.

nasb@Esther:10:3 @For Mordecai the Jew was second only to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews and in favor with his many kinsmen, one who sought the good of his people and one who spoke for the welfare of his whole nation.

nasb@Job:1:1 @There was a man in the land of Uz whose name was Job; and that man was blameless, upright, fearing God and turning away from evil.
