nkjv@Genesis:1:1 @ In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:1:2 @ The earth was without form, and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

nkjv@Genesis:1:3 @ Then God said, "Let there be light"; and there was light.

nkjv@Genesis:1:4 @ And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness.

nkjv@Genesis:1:5 @ God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day.

nkjv@Genesis:1:6 @ Then God said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."

nkjv@Genesis:1:7 @ Thus God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:8 @ And God called the firmament Heaven. So the evening and the morning were the second day.

nkjv@Genesis:1:9 @ Then God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear"; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:10 @ And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God saw that it was good.

nkjv@Genesis:1:11 @ Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb that yields seed, and the fruit tree that yields fruit according to its kind, whose seed is in itself, on the earth"; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:12 @ And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

nkjv@Genesis:1:13 @ So the evening and the morning were the third day.

nkjv@Genesis:1:14 @ Then God said, "Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years;

nkjv@Genesis:1:15 @ and let them be for lights in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth"; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:16 @ Then God made two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He made the stars also.

nkjv@Genesis:1:18 @ and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good.

nkjv@Genesis:1:19 @ So the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

nkjv@Genesis:1:20 @ Then God said, "Let the waters abound with an abundance of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the face of the firmament of the heavens."

nkjv@Genesis:1:21 @ So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their kind, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

nkjv@Genesis:1:22 @ And God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:1:23 @ So the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

nkjv@Genesis:1:24 @ Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind"; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:25 @ And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good.

nkjv@Genesis:1:26 @ Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:1:27 @ So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

nkjv@Genesis:1:28 @ Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:1:29 @ And God said, "See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.

nkjv@Genesis:1:30 @ Also, to every beast of the earth, to every bird of the air, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food"; and it was so.

nkjv@Genesis:1:31 @ Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

nkjv@Genesis:2:1 @ Thus the heavens and the earth, and all the host of them, were finished.

nkjv@Genesis:2:2 @ And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done.

nkjv@Genesis:2:3 @ Then God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which God had created and made.

nkjv@Genesis:2:4 @ This is the history of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,

nkjv@Genesis:2:5 @ before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground;

nkjv@Genesis:2:6 @ but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:2:7 @ And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.

nkjv@Genesis:2:8 @ The LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden, and there He put the man whom He had formed.

nkjv@Genesis:2:9 @ And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

nkjv@Genesis:2:10 @ Now a river went out of Eden to water the garden, and from there it parted and became four riverheads.

nkjv@Genesis:2:11 @ The name of the first is Pishon; it is the one which skirts the whole land of Havilah, where there is gold.

nkjv@Genesis:2:12 @ And the gold of that land is good. Bdellium and the onyx stone are there.

nkjv@Genesis:2:13 @ The name of the second river is Gihon; it is the one which goes around the whole land of Cush.

nkjv@Genesis:2:15 @ Then the LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to tend and keep it.

nkjv@Genesis:2:16 @ And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat;

nkjv@Genesis:2:17 @ but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die."

nkjv@Genesis:2:18 @ And the LORD God said, "It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him."

nkjv@Genesis:2:19 @ Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to Adam to see what he would call them. And whatever Adam called each living creature, that was its name.

nkjv@Genesis:2:20 @ So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.

nkjv@Genesis:2:21 @ And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh in its place.

nkjv@Genesis:2:22 @ Then the rib which the LORD God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man.

nkjv@Genesis:2:23 @ And Adam said: "This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man."

nkjv@Genesis:2:24 @ Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

nkjv@Genesis:2:25 @ And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

nkjv@Genesis:3:1 @ Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, "Has God indeed said, "You shall not eat of every tree of the garden'?"

nkjv@Genesis:3:2 @ And the woman said to the serpent, "We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden;

nkjv@Genesis:3:5 @ For God knows that in the day you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

nkjv@Genesis:3:6 @ So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. She also gave to her husband with her, and he ate.

nkjv@Genesis:3:7 @ Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves coverings.

nkjv@Genesis:3:8 @ And they heard the sound of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God among the trees of the garden.

nkjv@Genesis:3:9 @ Then the LORD God called to Adam and said to him, "Where are you?"

nkjv@Genesis:3:10 @ So he said, "I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself."

nkjv@Genesis:3:11 @ And He said, "Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree of which I commanded you that you should not eat?"

nkjv@Genesis:3:12 @ Then the man said, "The woman whom You gave to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I ate."

nkjv@Genesis:3:13 @ And the LORD God said to the woman, "What is this you have done?" The woman said, "The serpent deceived me, and I ate."

nkjv@Genesis:3:14 @ So the LORD God said to the serpent: "Because you have done this, You are cursed more than all cattle, And more than every beast of the field; On your belly you shall go, And you shall eat dust All the days of your life.

nkjv@Genesis:3:15 @ And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel."

nkjv@Genesis:3:16 @ To the woman He said: "I will greatly multiply your sorrow and your conception; In pain you shall bring forth children; Your desire shall be for your husband, And he shall rule over you."

nkjv@Genesis:3:17 @ Then to Adam He said, "Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, "You shall not eat of it': "Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it All the days of your life.

nkjv@Genesis:3:18 @ Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, And you shall eat the herb of the field.

nkjv@Genesis:3:19 @ In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread Till you return to the ground, For out of it you were taken; For dust you are, And to dust you shall return."

nkjv@Genesis:3:20 @ And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living.

nkjv@Genesis:3:21 @ Also for Adam and his wife the LORD God made tunics of skin, and clothed them.

nkjv@Genesis:3:22 @ Then the LORD God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest he put out his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live forever"--

nkjv@Genesis:3:24 @ So He drove out the man; and He placed cherubim at the east of the garden of Eden, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life.

nkjv@Genesis:4:1 @ Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she conceived and bore Cain, and said, "I have acquired a man from the LORD."

nkjv@Genesis:4:3 @ And in the process of time it came to pass that Cain brought an offering of the fruit of the ground to the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:4:4 @ Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat. And the LORD respected Abel and his offering,

nkjv@Genesis:4:5 @ but He did not respect Cain and his offering. And Cain was very angry, and his countenance fell.

nkjv@Genesis:4:6 @ So the LORD said to Cain, "Why are you angry? And why has your countenance fallen?

nkjv@Genesis:4:7 @ If you do well, will you not be accepted? And if you do not do well, sin lies at the door. And its desire is for you, but you should rule over it."

nkjv@Genesis:4:8 @ Now Cain talked with Abel his brother; and it came to pass, when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel his brother and killed him.

nkjv@Genesis:4:10 @ And He said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood cries out to Me from the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:4:11 @ So now you are cursed from the earth, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.

nkjv@Genesis:4:12 @ When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you. A fugitive and a vagabond you shall be on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:4:13 @ And Cain said to the LORD, "My punishment is greater than I can bear!

nkjv@Genesis:4:14 @ Surely You have driven me out this day from the face of the ground; I shall be hidden from Your face; I shall be a fugitive and a vagabond on the earth, and it will happen that anyone who finds me will kill me."

nkjv@Genesis:4:15 @ And the LORD said to him, "Therefore, whoever kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold." And the LORD set a mark on Cain, lest anyone finding him should kill him.

nkjv@Genesis:4:16 @ Then Cain went out from the presence of the LORD and dwelt in the land of Nod on the east of Eden.

nkjv@Genesis:4:17 @ And Cain knew his wife, and she conceived and bore Enoch. And he built a city, and called the name of the city after the name of his son--Enoch.

nkjv@Genesis:4:18 @ To Enoch was born Irad; and Irad begot Mehujael, and Mehujael begot Methushael, and Methushael begot Lamech.

nkjv@Genesis:4:19 @ Then Lamech took for himself two wives: the name of one was Adah, and the name of the second was Zillah.

nkjv@Genesis:4:20 @ And Adah bore Jabal. He was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.

nkjv@Genesis:4:21 @ His brother's name was Jubal. He was the father of all those who play the harp and flute.

nkjv@Genesis:4:22 @ And as for Zillah, she also bore Tubal-Cain, an instructor of every craftsman in bronze and iron. And the sister of Tubal-Cain was Naamah.

nkjv@Genesis:4:23 @ Then Lamech said to his wives: "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice; Wives of Lamech, listen to my speech! For I have killed a man for wounding me, Even a young man for hurting me.

nkjv@Genesis:4:25 @ And Adam knew his wife again, and she bore a son and named him Seth, "For God has appointed another seed for me instead of Abel, whom Cain killed."

nkjv@Genesis:4:26 @ And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:5:2 @ He created them male and female, and blessed them and called them Mankind in the day they were created.

nkjv@Genesis:5:3 @ And Adam lived one hundred and thirty years, and begot a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth.

nkjv@Genesis:5:4 @ After he begot Seth, the days of Adam were eight hundred years; and he had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:5 @ So all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:6 @ Seth lived one hundred and five years, and begot Enosh.

nkjv@Genesis:5:7 @ After he begot Enosh, Seth lived eight hundred and seven years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:8 @ So all the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:9 @ Enosh lived ninety years, and begot Cainan.

nkjv@Genesis:5:10 @ After he begot Cainan, Enosh lived eight hundred and fifteen years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:11 @ So all the days of Enosh were nine hundred and five years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:12 @ Cainan lived seventy years, and begot Mahalalel.

nkjv@Genesis:5:13 @ After he begot Mahalalel, Cainan lived eight hundred and forty years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:14 @ So all the days of Cainan were nine hundred and ten years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:15 @ Mahalalel lived sixty-five years, and begot Jared.

nkjv@Genesis:5:16 @ After he begot Jared, Mahalalel lived eight hundred and thirty years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:17 @ So all the days of Mahalalel were eight hundred and ninety-five years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:18 @ Jared lived one hundred and sixty-two years, and begot Enoch.

nkjv@Genesis:5:19 @ After he begot Enoch, Jared lived eight hundred years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:20 @ So all the days of Jared were nine hundred and sixty-two years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:21 @ Enoch lived sixty-five years, and begot Methuselah.

nkjv@Genesis:5:22 @ After he begot Methuselah, Enoch walked with God three hundred years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:23 @ So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.

nkjv@Genesis:5:24 @ And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.

nkjv@Genesis:5:25 @ Methuselah lived one hundred and eighty-seven years, and begot Lamech.

nkjv@Genesis:5:26 @ After he begot Lamech, Methuselah lived seven hundred and eighty-two years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:27 @ So all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred and sixty-nine years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:28 @ Lamech lived one hundred and eighty-two years, and had a son.

nkjv@Genesis:5:29 @ And he called his name Noah, saying, "This one will comfort us concerning our work and the toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD has cursed."

nkjv@Genesis:5:30 @ After he begot Noah, Lamech lived five hundred and ninety-five years, and had sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:5:31 @ So all the days of Lamech were seven hundred and seventy-seven years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:5:32 @ And Noah was five hundred years old, and Noah begot Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:1 @ Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them,

nkjv@Genesis:6:2 @ that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose.

nkjv@Genesis:6:3 @ And the LORD said, "My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years."

nkjv@Genesis:6:4 @ There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.

nkjv@Genesis:6:5 @ Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

nkjv@Genesis:6:6 @ And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.

nkjv@Genesis:6:7 @ So the LORD said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them."

nkjv@Genesis:6:10 @ And Noah begot three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:11 @ The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

nkjv@Genesis:6:12 @ So God looked upon the earth, and indeed it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted their way on the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:13 @ And God said to Noah, "The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:6:14 @ Make yourself an ark of gopherwood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and outside with pitch.

nkjv@Genesis:6:15 @ And this is how you shall make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits.

nkjv@Genesis:6:16 @ You shall make a window for the ark, and you shall finish it to a cubit from above; and set the door of the ark in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third decks.

nkjv@Genesis:6:17 @ And behold, I Myself am bringing floodwaters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall die.

nkjv@Genesis:6:18 @ But I will establish My covenant with you; and you shall go into the ark--you, your sons, your wife, and your sons' wives with you.

nkjv@Genesis:6:19 @ And of every living thing of all flesh you shall bring two of every sort into the ark, to keep them alive with you; they shall be male and female.

nkjv@Genesis:6:20 @ Of the birds after their kind, of animals after their kind, and of every creeping thing of the earth after its kind, two of every kind will come to you to keep them alive.

nkjv@Genesis:6:21 @ And you shall take for yourself of all food that is eaten, and you shall gather it to yourself; and it shall be food for you and for them."

nkjv@Genesis:6:22 @ Thus Noah did; according to all that God commanded him, so he did.

nkjv@Genesis:7:1 @ Then the LORD said to Noah, "Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation.

nkjv@Genesis:7:2 @ You shall take with you seven each of every clean animal, a male and his female; two each of animals that are unclean, a male and his female;

nkjv@Genesis:7:3 @ also seven each of birds of the air, male and female, to keep the species alive on the face of all the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:7:4 @ For after seven more days I will cause it to rain on the earth forty days and forty nights, and I will destroy from the face of the earth all living things that I have made."

nkjv@Genesis:7:5 @ And Noah did according to all that the LORD commanded him.

nkjv@Genesis:7:7 @ So Noah, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives, went into the ark because of the waters of the flood.

nkjv@Genesis:7:8 @ Of clean animals, of animals that are unclean, of birds, and of everything that creeps on the earth,

nkjv@Genesis:7:9 @ two by two they went into the ark to Noah, male and female, as God had commanded Noah.

nkjv@Genesis:7:10 @ And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:7:11 @ In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, on that day all the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

nkjv@Genesis:7:12 @ And the rain was on the earth forty days and forty nights.

nkjv@Genesis:7:13 @ On the very same day Noah and Noah's sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, and Noah's wife and the three wives of his sons with them, entered the ark--

nkjv@Genesis:7:14 @ they and every beast after its kind, all cattle after their kind, every creeping thing that creeps on the earth after its kind, and every bird after its kind, every bird of every sort.

nkjv@Genesis:7:15 @ And they went into the ark to Noah, two by two, of all flesh in which is the breath of life.

nkjv@Genesis:7:16 @ So those that entered, male and female of all flesh, went in as God had commanded him; and the LORD shut him in.

nkjv@Genesis:7:17 @ Now the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increased and lifted up the ark, and it rose high above the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:7:18 @ The waters prevailed and greatly increased on the earth, and the ark moved about on the surface of the waters.

nkjv@Genesis:7:19 @ And the waters prevailed exceedingly on the earth, and all the high hills under the whole heaven were covered.

nkjv@Genesis:7:20 @ The waters prevailed fifteen cubits upward, and the mountains were covered.

nkjv@Genesis:7:21 @ And all flesh died that moved on the earth: birds and cattle and beasts and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, and every man.

nkjv@Genesis:7:22 @ All in whose nostrils was the breath of the spirit of life, all that was on the dry land, died.

nkjv@Genesis:7:23 @ So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the ground: both man and cattle, creeping thing and bird of the air. They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah and those who were with him in the ark remained alive.

nkjv@Genesis:7:24 @ And the waters prevailed on the earth one hundred and fifty days.

nkjv@Genesis:8:1 @ Then God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the animals that were with him in the ark. And God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters subsided.

nkjv@Genesis:8:2 @ The fountains of the deep and the windows of heaven were also stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained.

nkjv@Genesis:8:3 @ And the waters receded continually from the earth. At the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters decreased.

nkjv@Genesis:8:5 @ And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

nkjv@Genesis:8:7 @ Then he sent out a raven, which kept going to and fro until the waters had dried up from the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:8:9 @ But the dove found no resting place for the sole of her foot, and she returned into the ark to him, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth. So he put out his hand and took her, and drew her into the ark to himself.

nkjv@Genesis:8:10 @ And he waited yet another seven days, and again he sent the dove out from the ark.

nkjv@Genesis:8:11 @ Then the dove came to him in the evening, and behold, a freshly plucked olive leaf was in her mouth; and Noah knew that the waters had receded from the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:8:12 @ So he waited yet another seven days and sent out the dove, which did not return again to him anymore.

nkjv@Genesis:8:13 @ And it came to pass in the six hundred and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, that the waters were dried up from the earth; and Noah removed the covering of the ark and looked, and indeed the surface of the ground was dry.

nkjv@Genesis:8:14 @ And in the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dried.

nkjv@Genesis:8:16 @ "Go out of the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons' wives with you.

nkjv@Genesis:8:17 @ Bring out with you every living thing of all flesh that is with you: birds and cattle and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, so that they may abound on the earth, and be fruitful and multiply on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:8:18 @ So Noah went out, and his sons and his wife and his sons' wives with him.

nkjv@Genesis:8:19 @ Every animal, every creeping thing, every bird, and whatever creeps on the earth, according to their families, went out of the ark.

nkjv@Genesis:8:20 @ Then Noah built an altar to the LORD, and took of every clean animal and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

nkjv@Genesis:8:21 @ And the LORD smelled a soothing aroma. Then the LORD said in His heart, "I will never again curse the ground for man's sake, although the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done.

nkjv@Genesis:8:22 @ "While the earth remains, Seedtime and harvest, Cold and heat, Winter and summer, And day and night Shall not cease."

nkjv@Genesis:9:1 @ So God blessed Noah and his sons, and said to them: "Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:9:2 @ And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be on every beast of the earth, on every bird of the air, on all that move on the earth, and on all the fish of the sea. They are given into your hand.

nkjv@Genesis:9:5 @ Surely for your lifeblood I will demand a reckoning; from the hand of every beast I will require it, and from the hand of man. From the hand of every man's brother I will require the life of man.

nkjv@Genesis:9:7 @ And as for you, be fruitful and multiply; Bring forth abundantly in the earth And multiply in it."

nkjv@Genesis:9:8 @ Then God spoke to Noah and to his sons with him, saying:

nkjv@Genesis:9:9 @ "And as for Me, behold, I establish My covenant with you and with your descendants after you,

nkjv@Genesis:9:10 @ and with every living creature that is with you: the birds, the cattle, and every beast of the earth with you, of all that go out of the ark, every beast of the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:9:12 @ And God said: "This is the sign of the covenant which I make between Me and you, and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:

nkjv@Genesis:9:13 @ I set My rainbow in the cloud, and it shall be for the sign of the covenant between Me and the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:9:15 @ and I will remember My covenant which is between Me and you and every living creature of all flesh; the waters shall never again become a flood to destroy all flesh.

nkjv@Genesis:9:16 @ The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:9:17 @ And God said to Noah, "This is the sign of the covenant which I have established between Me and all flesh that is on the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:9:18 @ Now the sons of Noah who went out of the ark were Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And Ham was the father of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:9:19 @ These three were the sons of Noah, and from these the whole earth was populated.

nkjv@Genesis:9:20 @ And Noah began to be a farmer, and he planted a vineyard.

nkjv@Genesis:9:21 @ Then he drank of the wine and was drunk, and became uncovered in his tent.

nkjv@Genesis:9:22 @ And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside.

nkjv@Genesis:9:23 @ But Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and went backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father's nakedness.

nkjv@Genesis:9:24 @ So Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done to him.

nkjv@Genesis:9:26 @ And he said: "Blessed be the LORD, The God of Shem, And may Canaan be his servant.

nkjv@Genesis:9:27 @ May God enlarge Japheth, And may he dwell in the tents of Shem; And may Canaan be his servant."

nkjv@Genesis:9:28 @ And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.

nkjv@Genesis:9:29 @ So all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years; and he died.

nkjv@Genesis:10:1 @ Now this is the genealogy of the sons of Noah: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. And sons were born to them after the flood.

nkjv@Genesis:10:2 @ The sons of Japheth were Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

nkjv@Genesis:10:3 @ The sons of Gomer were Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

nkjv@Genesis:10:4 @ The sons of Javan were Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

nkjv@Genesis:10:5 @ From these the coastland peoples of the Gentiles were separated into their lands, everyone according to his language, according to their families, into their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:10:6 @ The sons of Ham were Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:10:7 @ The sons of Cush were Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabtechah; and the sons of Raamah were Sheba and Dedan.

nkjv@Genesis:10:10 @ And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

nkjv@Genesis:10:11 @ From that land he went to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,

nkjv@Genesis:10:12 @ and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (that is the principal city).

nkjv@Genesis:10:14 @ Pathrusim, and Casluhim (from whom came the Philistines and Caphtorim).

nkjv@Genesis:10:15 @ Canaan begot Sidon his firstborn, and Heth;

nkjv@Genesis:10:16 @ the Jebusite, the Amorite, and the Girgashite;

nkjv@Genesis:10:17 @ the Hivite, the Arkite, and the Sinite;

nkjv@Genesis:10:18 @ the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were dispersed.

nkjv@Genesis:10:19 @ And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon as you go toward Gerar, as far as Gaza; then as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, as far as Lasha.

nkjv@Genesis:10:20 @ These were the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands and in their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:10:21 @ And children were born also to Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the brother of Japheth the elder.

nkjv@Genesis:10:22 @ The sons of Shem were Elam, Asshur, Arphaxad, Lud, and Aram.

nkjv@Genesis:10:23 @ The sons of Aram were Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

nkjv@Genesis:10:24 @ Arphaxad begot Salah, and Salah begot Eber.

nkjv@Genesis:10:25 @ To Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother's name was Joktan.

nkjv@Genesis:10:29 @ Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.

nkjv@Genesis:10:30 @ And their dwelling place was from Mesha as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

nkjv@Genesis:10:31 @ These were the sons of Shem, according to their families, according to their languages, in their lands, according to their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:10:32 @ These were the families of the sons of Noah, according to their generations, in their nations; and from these the nations were divided on the earth after the flood.

nkjv@Genesis:11:1 @ Now the whole earth had one language and one speech.

nkjv@Genesis:11:2 @ And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there.

nkjv@Genesis:11:3 @ Then they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly." They had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar.

nkjv@Genesis:11:4 @ And they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth."

nkjv@Genesis:11:5 @ But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built.

nkjv@Genesis:11:6 @ And the LORD said, "Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.

nkjv@Genesis:11:7 @ Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."

nkjv@Genesis:11:8 @ So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they ceased building the city.

nkjv@Genesis:11:9 @ Therefore its name is called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of all the earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:11:10 @ This is the genealogy of Shem: Shem was one hundred years old, and begot Arphaxad two years after the flood.

nkjv@Genesis:11:11 @ After he begot Arphaxad, Shem lived five hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:12 @ Arphaxad lived thirty-five years, and begot Salah.

nkjv@Genesis:11:13 @ After he begot Salah, Arphaxad lived four hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:14 @ Salah lived thirty years, and begot Eber.

nkjv@Genesis:11:15 @ After he begot Eber, Salah lived four hundred and three years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:16 @ Eber lived thirty-four years, and begot Peleg.

nkjv@Genesis:11:17 @ After he begot Peleg, Eber lived four hundred and thirty years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:18 @ Peleg lived thirty years, and begot Reu.

nkjv@Genesis:11:19 @ After he begot Reu, Peleg lived two hundred and nine years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:20 @ Reu lived thirty-two years, and begot Serug.

nkjv@Genesis:11:21 @ After he begot Serug, Reu lived two hundred and seven years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:22 @ Serug lived thirty years, and begot Nahor.

nkjv@Genesis:11:23 @ After he begot Nahor, Serug lived two hundred years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:24 @ Nahor lived twenty-nine years, and begot Terah.

nkjv@Genesis:11:25 @ After he begot Terah, Nahor lived one hundred and nineteen years, and begot sons and daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:11:26 @ Now Terah lived seventy years, and begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

nkjv@Genesis:11:27 @ This is the genealogy of Terah: Terah begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran. Haran begot Lot.

nkjv@Genesis:11:28 @ And Haran died before his father Terah in his native land, in Ur of the Chaldeans.

nkjv@Genesis:11:29 @ Then Abram and Nahor took wives: the name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran the father of Milcah and the father of Iscah.

nkjv@Genesis:11:31 @ And Terah took his son Abram and his grandson Lot, the son of Haran, and his daughter-in-law Sarai, his son Abram's wife, and they went out with them from Ur of the Chaldeans to go to the land of Canaan; and they came to Haran and dwelt there.

nkjv@Genesis:11:32 @ So the days of Terah were two hundred and five years, and Terah died in Haran.

nkjv@Genesis:12:1 @ Now the LORD had said to Abram: "Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land that I will show you.

nkjv@Genesis:12:2 @ I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing.

nkjv@Genesis:12:3 @ I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed."

nkjv@Genesis:12:4 @ So Abram departed as the LORD had spoken to him, and Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran.

nkjv@Genesis:12:5 @ Then Abram took Sarai his wife and Lot his brother's son, and all their possessions that they had gathered, and the people whom they had acquired in Haran, and they departed to go to the land of Canaan. So they came to the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:12:6 @ Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, as far as the terebinth tree of Moreh. And the Canaanites were then in the land.

nkjv@Genesis:12:7 @ Then the LORD appeared to Abram and said, "To your descendants I will give this land." And there he built an altar to the LORD, who had appeared to him.

nkjv@Genesis:12:8 @ And he moved from there to the mountain east of Bethel, and he pitched his tent with Bethel on the west and Ai on the east; there he built an altar to the LORD and called on the name of the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:12:10 @ Now there was a famine in the land, and Abram went down to Egypt to dwell there, for the famine was severe in the land.

nkjv@Genesis:12:11 @ And it came to pass, when he was close to entering Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, "Indeed I know that you are a woman of beautiful countenance.

nkjv@Genesis:12:12 @ Therefore it will happen, when the Egyptians see you, that they will say, "This is his wife'; and they will kill me, but they will let you live.

nkjv@Genesis:12:13 @ Please say you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that I may live because of you."

nkjv@Genesis:12:15 @ The princes of Pharaoh also saw her and commended her to Pharaoh. And the woman was taken to Pharaoh's house.

nkjv@Genesis:12:16 @ He treated Abram well for her sake. He had sheep, oxen, male donkeys, male and female servants, female donkeys, and camels.

nkjv@Genesis:12:17 @ But the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.

nkjv@Genesis:12:18 @ And Pharaoh called Abram and said, "What is this you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?

nkjv@Genesis:12:19 @ Why did you say, "She is my sister'? I might have taken her as my wife. Now therefore, here is your wife; take her and go your way."

nkjv@Genesis:12:20 @ So Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him; and they sent him away, with his wife and all that he had.

nkjv@Genesis:13:1 @ Then Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and Lot with him, to the South.

nkjv@Genesis:13:2 @ Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.

nkjv@Genesis:13:3 @ And he went on his journey from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,

nkjv@Genesis:13:4 @ to the place of the altar which he had made there at first. And there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:13:5 @ Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks and herds and tents.

nkjv@Genesis:13:6 @ Now the land was not able to support them, that they might dwell together, for their possessions were so great that they could not dwell together.

nkjv@Genesis:13:7 @ And there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram's livestock and the herdsmen of Lot's livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites then dwelt in the land.

nkjv@Genesis:13:8 @ So Abram said to Lot, "Please let there be no strife between you and me, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen; for we are brethren.

nkjv@Genesis:13:9 @ Is not the whole land before you? Please separate from me. If you take the left, then I will go to the right; or, if you go to the right, then I will go to the left."

nkjv@Genesis:13:10 @ And Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere (before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt as you go toward Zoar.

nkjv@Genesis:13:11 @ Then Lot chose for himself all the plain of Jordan, and Lot journeyed east. And they separated from each other.

nkjv@Genesis:13:12 @ Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain and pitched his tent even as far as Sodom.

nkjv@Genesis:13:13 @ But the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinful against the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:13:14 @ And the LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: "Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are--northward, southward, eastward, and westward;

nkjv@Genesis:13:15 @ for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever.

nkjv@Genesis:13:16 @ And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could number the dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be numbered.

nkjv@Genesis:13:17 @ Arise, walk in the land through its length and its width, for I give it to you."

nkjv@Genesis:13:18 @ Then Abram moved his tent, and went and dwelt by the terebinth trees of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:14:1 @ And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations,

nkjv@Genesis:14:2 @ that they made war with Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar).

nkjv@Genesis:14:4 @ Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.

nkjv@Genesis:14:5 @ In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him came and attacked the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, the Zuzim in Ham, the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,

nkjv@Genesis:14:6 @ and the Horites in their mountain of Seir, as far as El Paran, which is by the wilderness.

nkjv@Genesis:14:7 @ Then they turned back and came to En Mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and attacked all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt in Hazezon Tamar.

nkjv@Genesis:14:8 @ And the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar) went out and joined together in battle in the Valley of Siddim

nkjv@Genesis:14:9 @ against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of nations, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar--four kings against five.

nkjv@Genesis:14:10 @ Now the Valley of Siddim was full of asphalt pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled; some fell there, and the remainder fled to the mountains.

nkjv@Genesis:14:11 @ Then they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their provisions, and went their way.

nkjv@Genesis:14:12 @ They also took Lot, Abram's brother's son who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

nkjv@Genesis:14:13 @ Then one who had escaped came and told Abram the Hebrew, for he dwelt by the terebinth trees of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner; and they were allies with Abram.

nkjv@Genesis:14:14 @ Now when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his three hundred and eighteen trained servants who were born in his own house, and went in pursuit as far as Dan.

nkjv@Genesis:14:15 @ He divided his forces against them by night, and he and his servants attacked them and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is north of Damascus.

nkjv@Genesis:14:16 @ So he brought back all the goods, and also brought back his brother Lot and his goods, as well as the women and the people.

nkjv@Genesis:14:17 @ And the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley), after his return from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him.

nkjv@Genesis:14:18 @ Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; he was the priest of God Most High.

nkjv@Genesis:14:19 @ And he blessed him and said: "Blessed be Abram of God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth;

nkjv@Genesis:14:20 @ And blessed be God Most High, Who has delivered your enemies into your hand." And he gave him a tithe of all.

nkjv@Genesis:14:21 @ Now the king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the persons, and take the goods for yourself."

nkjv@Genesis:14:22 @ But Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have raised my hand to the LORD, God Most High, the Possessor of heaven and earth,

nkjv@Genesis:14:23 @ that I will take nothing, from a thread to a sandal strap, and that I will not take anything that is yours, lest you should say, "I have made Abram rich'--

nkjv@Genesis:14:24 @ except only what the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me: Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion."

nkjv@Genesis:15:2 @ But Abram said, "Lord GOD, what will You give me, seeing I go childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?"

nkjv@Genesis:15:4 @ And behold, the word of the LORD came to him, saying, "This one shall not be your heir, but one who will come from your own body shall be your heir."

nkjv@Genesis:15:5 @ Then He brought him outside and said, "Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them." And He said to him, "So shall your descendants be."

nkjv@Genesis:15:6 @ And he believed in the LORD, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.

nkjv@Genesis:15:7 @ Then He said to him, "I am the LORD, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give you this land to inherit it."

nkjv@Genesis:15:8 @ And he said, "Lord GOD, how shall I know that I will inherit it?"

nkjv@Genesis:15:9 @ So He said to him, "Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon."

nkjv@Genesis:15:10 @ Then he brought all these to Him and cut them in two, down the middle, and placed each piece opposite the other; but he did not cut the birds in two.

nkjv@Genesis:15:11 @ And when the vultures came down on the carcasses, Abram drove them away.

nkjv@Genesis:15:12 @ Now when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and behold, horror and great darkness fell upon him.

nkjv@Genesis:15:13 @ Then He said to Abram: "Know certainly that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not theirs, and will serve them, and they will afflict them four hundred years.

nkjv@Genesis:15:14 @ And also the nation whom they serve I will judge; afterward they shall come out with great possessions.

nkjv@Genesis:15:17 @ And it came to pass, when the sun went down and it was dark, that behold, there appeared a smoking oven and a burning torch that passed between those pieces.

nkjv@Genesis:15:18 @ On the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying: "To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the River Euphrates--

nkjv@Genesis:15:21 @ the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Girgashites, and the Jebusites."

nkjv@Genesis:16:1 @ Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had borne him no children. And she had an Egyptian maidservant whose name was Hagar.

nkjv@Genesis:16:2 @ So Sarai said to Abram, "See now, the LORD has restrained me from bearing children. Please, go in to my maid; perhaps I shall obtain children by her." And Abram heeded the voice of Sarai.

nkjv@Genesis:16:3 @ Then Sarai, Abram's wife, took Hagar her maid, the Egyptian, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:16:4 @ So he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress became despised in her eyes.

nkjv@Genesis:16:5 @ Then Sarai said to Abram, "My wrong be upon you! I gave my maid into your embrace; and when she saw that she had conceived, I became despised in her eyes. The LORD judge between you and me."

nkjv@Genesis:16:6 @ So Abram said to Sarai, "Indeed your maid is in your hand; do to her as you please." And when Sarai dealt harshly with her, she fled from her presence.

nkjv@Genesis:16:8 @ And He said, "Hagar, Sarai's maid, where have you come from, and where are you going?" She said, "I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai."

nkjv@Genesis:16:9 @ The Angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hand."

nkjv@Genesis:16:11 @ And the Angel of the LORD said to her: "Behold, you are with child, And you shall bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, Because the LORD has heard your affliction.

nkjv@Genesis:16:12 @ He shall be a wild man; His hand shall be against every man, And every man's hand against him. And he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren."

nkjv@Genesis:16:14 @ Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi; observe, it is between Kadesh and Bered.

nkjv@Genesis:16:15 @ So Hagar bore Abram a son; and Abram named his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.

nkjv@Genesis:17:1 @ When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless.

nkjv@Genesis:17:2 @ And I will make My covenant between Me and you, and will multiply you exceedingly."

nkjv@Genesis:17:3 @ Then Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying:

nkjv@Genesis:17:4 @ "As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, and you shall be a father of many nations.

nkjv@Genesis:17:6 @ I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you.

nkjv@Genesis:17:7 @ And I will establish My covenant between Me and you and your descendants after you in their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and your descendants after you.

nkjv@Genesis:17:8 @ Also I give to you and your descendants after you the land in which you are a stranger, all the land of Canaan, as an everlasting possession; and I will be their God."

nkjv@Genesis:17:9 @ And God said to Abraham: "As for you, you shall keep My covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations.

nkjv@Genesis:17:10 @ This is My covenant which you shall keep, between Me and you and your descendants after you: Every male child among you shall be circumcised;

nkjv@Genesis:17:11 @ and you shall be circumcised in the flesh of your foreskins, and it shall be a sign of the covenant between Me and you.

nkjv@Genesis:17:13 @ He who is born in your house and he who is bought with your money must be circumcised, and My covenant shall be in your flesh for an everlasting covenant.

nkjv@Genesis:17:14 @ And the uncircumcised male child, who is not circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin, that person shall be cut off from his people; he has broken My covenant."

nkjv@Genesis:17:16 @ And I will bless her and also give you a son by her; then I will bless her, and she shall be a mother of nations; kings of peoples shall be from her."

nkjv@Genesis:17:17 @ Then Abraham fell on his face and laughed, and said in his heart, "Shall a child be born to a man who is one hundred years old? And shall Sarah, who is ninety years old, bear a child?"

nkjv@Genesis:17:18 @ And Abraham said to God, "Oh, that Ishmael might live before You!"

nkjv@Genesis:17:19 @ Then God said: "No, Sarah your wife shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Isaac; I will establish My covenant with him for an everlasting covenant, and with his descendants after him.

nkjv@Genesis:17:20 @ And as for Ishmael, I have heard you. Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly. He shall beget twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.

nkjv@Genesis:17:22 @ Then He finished talking with him, and God went up from Abraham.

nkjv@Genesis:17:23 @ So Abraham took Ishmael his son, all who were born in his house and all who were bought with his money, every male among the men of Abraham's house, and circumcised the flesh of their foreskins that very same day, as God had said to him.

nkjv@Genesis:17:25 @ And Ishmael his son was thirteen years old when he was circumcised in the flesh of his foreskin.

nkjv@Genesis:17:26 @ That very same day Abraham was circumcised, and his son Ishmael;

nkjv@Genesis:17:27 @ and all the men of his house, born in the house or bought with money from a foreigner, were circumcised with him.

nkjv@Genesis:18:2 @ So he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, three men were standing by him; and when he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them, and bowed himself to the ground,

nkjv@Genesis:18:3 @ and said, "My Lord, if I have now found favor in Your sight, do not pass on by Your servant.

nkjv@Genesis:18:4 @ Please let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree.

nkjv@Genesis:18:5 @ And I will bring a morsel of bread, that you may refresh your hearts. After that you may pass by, inasmuch as you have come to your servant." They said, "Do as you have said."

nkjv@Genesis:18:6 @ So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah and said, "Quickly, make ready three measures of fine meal; knead it and make cakes."

nkjv@Genesis:18:7 @ And Abraham ran to the herd, took a tender and good calf, gave it to a young man, and he hastened to prepare it.

nkjv@Genesis:18:8 @ So he took butter and milk and the calf which he had prepared, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree as they ate.

nkjv@Genesis:18:10 @ And He said, "I will certainly return to you according to the time of life, and behold, Sarah your wife shall have a son." (Sarah was listening in the tent door which was behind him.)

nkjv@Genesis:18:11 @ Now Abraham and Sarah were old, well advanced in age; and Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.

nkjv@Genesis:18:13 @ And the LORD said to Abraham, "Why did Sarah laugh, saying, "Shall I surely bear a child, since I am old?'

nkjv@Genesis:18:15 @ But Sarah denied it, saying, "I did not laugh," for she was afraid. And He said, "No, but you did laugh!"

nkjv@Genesis:18:16 @ Then the men rose from there and looked toward Sodom, and Abraham went with them to send them on the way.

nkjv@Genesis:18:17 @ And the LORD said, "Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing,

nkjv@Genesis:18:18 @ since Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?

nkjv@Genesis:18:19 @ For I have known him, in order that he may command his children and his household after him, that they keep the way of the LORD, to do righteousness and justice, that the LORD may bring to Abraham what He has spoken to him."

nkjv@Genesis:18:20 @ And the LORD said, "Because the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grave,

nkjv@Genesis:18:21 @ I will go down now and see whether they have done altogether according to the outcry against it that has come to Me; and if not, I will know."

nkjv@Genesis:18:22 @ Then the men turned away from there and went toward Sodom, but Abraham still stood before the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:18:23 @ And Abraham came near and said, "Would You also destroy the righteous with the wicked?

nkjv@Genesis:18:24 @ Suppose there were fifty righteous within the city; would You also destroy the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous that were in it?

nkjv@Genesis:18:27 @ Then Abraham answered and said, "Indeed now, I who am but dust and ashes have taken it upon myself to speak to the Lord:

nkjv@Genesis:18:29 @ And he spoke to Him yet again and said, "Suppose there should be forty found there?" So He said, "I will not do it for the sake of forty."

nkjv@Genesis:18:30 @ Then he said, "Let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Suppose thirty should be found there?" So He said, "I will not do it if I find thirty there."

nkjv@Genesis:18:31 @ And he said, "Indeed now, I have taken it upon myself to speak to the Lord: Suppose twenty should be found there?" So He said, "I will not destroy it for the sake of twenty."

nkjv@Genesis:18:32 @ Then he said, "Let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak but once more: Suppose ten should be found there?" And He said, "I will not destroy it for the sake of ten."

nkjv@Genesis:18:33 @ So the LORD went His way as soon as He had finished speaking with Abraham; and Abraham returned to his place.

nkjv@Genesis:19:1 @ Now the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:19:2 @ And he said, "Here now, my lords, please turn in to your servant's house and spend the night, and wash your feet; then you may rise early and go on your way." And they said, "No, but we will spend the night in the open square."

nkjv@Genesis:19:3 @ But he insisted strongly; so they turned in to him and entered his house. Then he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.

nkjv@Genesis:19:4 @ Now before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, both old and young, all the people from every quarter, surrounded the house.

nkjv@Genesis:19:5 @ And they called to Lot and said to him, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may know them carnally."

nkjv@Genesis:19:7 @ and said, "Please, my brethren, do not do so wickedly!

nkjv@Genesis:19:8 @ See now, I have two daughters who have not known a man; please, let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them as you wish; only do nothing to these men, since this is the reason they have come under the shadow of my roof."

nkjv@Genesis:19:9 @ And they said, "Stand back!" Then they said, "This one came in to stay here, and he keeps acting as a judge; now we will deal worse with you than with them." So they pressed hard against the man Lot, and came near to break down the door.

nkjv@Genesis:19:10 @ But the men reached out their hands and pulled Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.

nkjv@Genesis:19:11 @ And they struck the men who were at the doorway of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they became weary trying to find the door.

nkjv@Genesis:19:12 @ Then the men said to Lot, "Have you anyone else here? Son-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whomever you have in the city--take them out of this place!

nkjv@Genesis:19:13 @ For we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before the face of the LORD, and the LORD has sent us to destroy it."

nkjv@Genesis:19:14 @ So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, "Get up, get out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city!" But to his sons-in-law he seemed to be joking.

nkjv@Genesis:19:15 @ When the morning dawned, the angels urged Lot to hurry, saying, "Arise, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the punishment of the city."

nkjv@Genesis:19:16 @ And while he lingered, the men took hold of his hand, his wife's hand, and the hands of his two daughters, the LORD being merciful to him, and they brought him out and set him outside the city.

nkjv@Genesis:19:19 @ Indeed now, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have increased your mercy which you have shown me by saving my life; but I cannot escape to the mountains, lest some evil overtake me and I die.

nkjv@Genesis:19:20 @ See now, this city is near enough to flee to, and it is a little one; please let me escape there (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live."

nkjv@Genesis:19:21 @ And he said to him, "See, I have favored you concerning this thing also, in that I will not overthrow this city for which you have spoken.

nkjv@Genesis:19:24 @ Then the LORD rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the LORD out of the heavens.

nkjv@Genesis:19:25 @ So He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:19:26 @ But his wife looked back behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

nkjv@Genesis:19:27 @ And Abraham went early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the LORD.

nkjv@Genesis:19:28 @ Then he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain; and he saw, and behold, the smoke of the land which went up like the smoke of a furnace.

nkjv@Genesis:19:29 @ And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when He overthrew the cities in which Lot had dwelt.

nkjv@Genesis:19:30 @ Then Lot went up out of Zoar and dwelt in the mountains, and his two daughters were with him; for he was afraid to dwell in Zoar. And he and his two daughters dwelt in a cave.

nkjv@Genesis:19:31 @ Now the firstborn said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is no man on the earth to come in to us as is the custom of all the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:19:32 @ Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve the lineage of our father."

nkjv@Genesis:19:33 @ So they made their father drink wine that night. And the firstborn went in and lay with her father, and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.

nkjv@Genesis:19:34 @ It happened on the next day that the firstborn said to the younger, "Indeed I lay with my father last night; let us make him drink wine tonight also, and you go in and lie with him, that we may preserve the lineage of our father."

nkjv@Genesis:19:35 @ Then they made their father drink wine that night also. And the younger arose and lay with him, and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.

nkjv@Genesis:19:37 @ The firstborn bore a son and called his name Moab; he is the father of the Moabites to this day.

nkjv@Genesis:19:38 @ And the younger, she also bore a son and called his name Ben-Ammi; he is the father of the people of Ammon to this day.

nkjv@Genesis:20:1 @ And Abraham journeyed from there to the South, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur, and stayed in Gerar.

nkjv@Genesis:20:2 @ Now Abraham said of Sarah his wife, "She is my sister." And Abimelech king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.

nkjv@Genesis:20:3 @ But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, "Indeed you are a dead man because of the woman whom you have taken, for she is a man's wife."

nkjv@Genesis:20:4 @ But Abimelech had not come near her; and he said, "Lord, will You slay a righteous nation also?

nkjv@Genesis:20:5 @ Did he not say to me, "She is my sister'? And she, even she herself said, "He is my brother.' In the integrity of my heart and innocence of my hands I have done this."

nkjv@Genesis:20:6 @ And God said to him in a dream, "Yes, I know that you did this in the integrity of your heart. For I also withheld you from sinning against Me; therefore I did not let you touch her.

nkjv@Genesis:20:7 @ Now therefore, restore the man's wife; for he is a prophet, and he will pray for you and you shall live. But if you do not restore her, know that you shall surely die, you and all who are yours."

nkjv@Genesis:20:8 @ So Abimelech rose early in the morning, called all his servants, and told all these things in their hearing; and the men were very much afraid.

nkjv@Genesis:20:9 @ And Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, "What have you done to us? How have I offended you, that you have brought on me and on my kingdom a great sin? You have done deeds to me that ought not to be done."

nkjv@Genesis:20:11 @ And Abraham said, "Because I thought, surely the fear of God is not in this place; and they will kill me on account of my wife.

nkjv@Genesis:20:12 @ But indeed she is truly my sister. She is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.

nkjv@Genesis:20:13 @ And it came to pass, when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, "This is your kindness that you should do for me: in every place, wherever we go, say of me, "He is my brother.""'

nkjv@Genesis:20:14 @ Then Abimelech took sheep, oxen, and male and female servants, and gave them to Abraham; and he restored Sarah his wife to him.

nkjv@Genesis:20:15 @ And Abimelech said, "See, my land is before you; dwell where it pleases you."

nkjv@Genesis:20:16 @ Then to Sarah he said, "Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver; indeed this vindicates you before all who are with you and before everybody." Thus she was rebuked.

nkjv@Genesis:20:17 @ So Abraham prayed to God; and God healed Abimelech, his wife, and his female servants. Then they bore children;

nkjv@Genesis:21:1 @ And the LORD visited Sarah as He had said, and the LORD did for Sarah as He had spoken.

nkjv@Genesis:21:2 @ For Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.

nkjv@Genesis:21:3 @ And Abraham called the name of his son who was born to him--whom Sarah bore to him--Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:21:4 @ Then Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.

nkjv@Genesis:21:6 @ And Sarah said, "God has made me laugh, and all who hear will laugh with me."

nkjv@Genesis:21:8 @ So the child grew and was weaned. And Abraham made a great feast on the same day that Isaac was weaned.

nkjv@Genesis:21:9 @ And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, scoffing.

nkjv@Genesis:21:10 @ Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this bondwoman and her son; for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, namely with Isaac."

nkjv@Genesis:21:11 @ And the matter was very displeasing in Abraham's sight because of his son.

nkjv@Genesis:21:14 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning, and took bread and a skin of water; and putting it on her shoulder, he gave it and the boy to Hagar, and sent her away. Then she departed and wandered in the Wilderness of Beersheba.

nkjv@Genesis:21:15 @ And the water in the skin was used up, and she placed the boy under one of the shrubs.

nkjv@Genesis:21:16 @ Then she went and sat down across from him at a distance of about a bowshot; for she said to herself, "Let me not see the death of the boy." So she sat opposite him, and lifted her voice and wept.

nkjv@Genesis:21:17 @ And God heard the voice of the lad. Then the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said to her, "What ails you, Hagar? Fear not, for God has heard the voice of the lad where he is.

nkjv@Genesis:21:18 @ Arise, lift up the lad and hold him with your hand, for I will make him a great nation."

nkjv@Genesis:21:19 @ Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went and filled the skin with water, and gave the lad a drink.

nkjv@Genesis:21:20 @ So God was with the lad; and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.

nkjv@Genesis:21:21 @ He dwelt in the Wilderness of Paran; and his mother took a wife for him from the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:21:22 @ And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech and Phichol, the commander of his army, spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.

nkjv@Genesis:21:23 @ Now therefore, swear to me by God that you will not deal falsely with me, with my offspring, or with my posterity; but that according to the kindness that I have done to you, you will do to me and to the land in which you have dwelt."

nkjv@Genesis:21:24 @ And Abraham said, "I will swear."

nkjv@Genesis:21:26 @ And Abimelech said, "I do not know who has done this thing; you did not tell me, nor had I heard of it until today."

nkjv@Genesis:21:27 @ So Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made a covenant.

nkjv@Genesis:21:28 @ And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.

nkjv@Genesis:21:30 @ And he said, "You will take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that they may be my witness that I have dug this well."

nkjv@Genesis:21:32 @ Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba. So Abimelech rose with Phichol, the commander of his army, and they returned to the land of the Philistines.

nkjv@Genesis:21:33 @ Then Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there called on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God.

nkjv@Genesis:21:34 @ And Abraham stayed in the land of the Philistines many days.

nkjv@Genesis:22:1 @ Now it came to pass after these things that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:22:2 @ Then He said, "Take now your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

nkjv@Genesis:22:3 @ So Abraham rose early in the morning and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son; and he split the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him.

nkjv@Genesis:22:4 @ Then on the third day Abraham lifted his eyes and saw the place afar off.

nkjv@Genesis:22:5 @ And Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey; the lad and I will go yonder and worship, and we will come back to you."

nkjv@Genesis:22:6 @ So Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took the fire in his hand, and a knife, and the two of them went together.

nkjv@Genesis:22:7 @ But Isaac spoke to Abraham his father and said, "My father!" And he said, "Here I am, my son." Then he said, "Look, the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"

nkjv@Genesis:22:8 @ And Abraham said, "My son, God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering." So the two of them went together.

nkjv@Genesis:22:9 @ Then they came to the place of which God had told him. And Abraham built an altar there and placed the wood in order; and he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar, upon the wood.

nkjv@Genesis:22:10 @ And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.

nkjv@Genesis:22:11 @ But the Angel of the LORD called to him from heaven and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" So he said, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:22:12 @ And He said, "Do not lay your hand on the lad, or do anything to him; for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me."

nkjv@Genesis:22:13 @ Then Abraham lifted his eyes and looked, and there behind him was a ram caught in a thicket by its horns. So Abraham went and took the ram, and offered it up for a burnt offering instead of his son.

nkjv@Genesis:22:14 @ And Abraham called the name of the place, The-LORD-Will-Provide; as it is said to this day, "In the Mount of the LORD it shall be provided."

nkjv@Genesis:22:16 @ and said: "By Myself I have sworn, says the LORD, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son--

nkjv@Genesis:22:17 @ blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the stars of the heaven and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of their enemies.

nkjv@Genesis:22:19 @ So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose and went together to Beersheba; and Abraham dwelt at Beersheba.

nkjv@Genesis:22:22 @ Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel."

nkjv@Genesis:22:23 @ And Bethuel begot Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

nkjv@Genesis:22:24 @ His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Thahash, and Maachah.

nkjv@Genesis:23:1 @ Sarah lived one hundred and twenty-seven years; these were the years of the life of Sarah.

nkjv@Genesis:23:2 @ So Sarah died in Kirjath Arba (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan, and Abraham came to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.

nkjv@Genesis:23:3 @ Then Abraham stood up from before his dead, and spoke to the sons of Heth, saying,

nkjv@Genesis:23:4 @ "I am a foreigner and a visitor among you. Give me property for a burial place among you, that I may bury my dead out of my sight."

nkjv@Genesis:23:5 @ And the sons of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him,

nkjv@Genesis:23:7 @ Then Abraham stood up and bowed himself to the people of the land, the sons of Heth.

nkjv@Genesis:23:8 @ And he spoke with them, saying, "If it is your wish that I bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and meet with Ephron the son of Zohar for me,

nkjv@Genesis:23:10 @ Now Ephron dwelt among the sons of Heth; and Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the presence of the sons of Heth, all who entered at the gate of his city, saying,

nkjv@Genesis:23:11 @ "No, my lord, hear me: I give you the field and the cave that is in it; I give it to you in the presence of the sons of my people. I give it to you. Bury your dead!"

nkjv@Genesis:23:12 @ Then Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land;

nkjv@Genesis:23:13 @ and he spoke to Ephron in the hearing of the people of the land, saying, "If you will give it, please hear me. I will give you money for the field; take it from me and I will bury my dead there."

nkjv@Genesis:23:14 @ And Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him,

nkjv@Genesis:23:15 @ "My lord, listen to me; the land is worth four hundred shekels of silver. What is that between you and me? So bury your dead."

nkjv@Genesis:23:16 @ And Abraham listened to Ephron; and Abraham weighed out the silver for Ephron which he had named in the hearing of the sons of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, currency of the merchants.

nkjv@Genesis:23:17 @ So the field of Ephron which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field and the cave which was in it, and all the trees that were in the field, which were within all the surrounding borders, were deeded

nkjv@Genesis:23:19 @ And after this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah, before Mamre (that is, Hebron) in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:23:20 @ So the field and the cave that is in it were deeded to Abraham by the sons of Heth as property for a burial place.

nkjv@Genesis:24:1 @ Now Abraham was old, well advanced in age; and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.

nkjv@Genesis:24:2 @ So Abraham said to the oldest servant of his house, who ruled over all that he had, "Please, put your hand under my thigh,

nkjv@Genesis:24:3 @ and I will make you swear by the LORD, the God of heaven and the God of the earth, that you will not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell;

nkjv@Genesis:24:5 @ And the servant said to him, "Perhaps the woman will not be willing to follow me to this land. Must I take your son back to the land from which you came?"

nkjv@Genesis:24:7 @ The LORD God of heaven, who took me from my father's house and from the land of my family, and who spoke to me and swore to me, saying, "To your descendants I give this land,' He will send His angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there.

nkjv@Genesis:24:8 @ And if the woman is not willing to follow you, then you will be released from this oath; only do not take my son back there."

nkjv@Genesis:24:9 @ So the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning this matter.

nkjv@Genesis:24:10 @ Then the servant took ten of his master's camels and departed, for all his master's goods were in his hand. And he arose and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor.

nkjv@Genesis:24:11 @ And he made his camels kneel down outside the city by a well of water at evening time, the time when women go out to draw water.

nkjv@Genesis:24:12 @ Then he said, "O LORD God of my master Abraham, please give me success this day, and show kindness to my master Abraham.

nkjv@Genesis:24:13 @ Behold, here I stand by the well of water, and the daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water.

nkjv@Genesis:24:14 @ Now let it be that the young woman to whom I say, "Please let down your pitcher that I may drink,' and she says, "Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink'--let her be the one You have appointed for Your servant Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:24:15 @ And it happened, before he had finished speaking, that behold, Rebekah, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, came out with her pitcher on her shoulder.

nkjv@Genesis:24:16 @ Now the young woman was very beautiful to behold, a virgin; no man had known her. And she went down to the well, filled her pitcher, and came up.

nkjv@Genesis:24:17 @ And the servant ran to meet her and said, "Please let me drink a little water from your pitcher."

nkjv@Genesis:24:18 @ So she said, "Drink, my lord." Then she quickly let her pitcher down to her hand, and gave him a drink.

nkjv@Genesis:24:19 @ And when she had finished giving him a drink, she said, "I will draw water for your camels also, until they have finished drinking."

nkjv@Genesis:24:20 @ Then she quickly emptied her pitcher into the trough, ran back to the well to draw water, and drew for all his camels.

nkjv@Genesis:24:21 @ And the man, wondering at her, remained silent so as to know whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.

nkjv@Genesis:24:22 @ So it was, when the camels had finished drinking, that the man took a golden nose ring weighing half a shekel, and two bracelets for her wrists weighing ten shekels of gold,

nkjv@Genesis:24:23 @ and said, "Whose daughter are you? Tell me, please, is there room in your father's house for us to lodge?"

nkjv@Genesis:24:25 @ Moreover she said to him, "We have both straw and feed enough, and room to lodge."

nkjv@Genesis:24:27 @ And he said, "Blessed be the LORD God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken His mercy and His truth toward my master. As for me, being on the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master's brethren."

nkjv@Genesis:24:28 @ So the young woman ran and told her mother's household these things.

nkjv@Genesis:24:29 @ Now Rebekah had a brother whose name was Laban, and Laban ran out to the man by the well.

nkjv@Genesis:24:30 @ So it came to pass, when he saw the nose ring, and the bracelets on his sister's wrists, and when he heard the words of his sister Rebekah, saying, "Thus the man spoke to me," that he went to the man. And there he stood by the camels at the well.

nkjv@Genesis:24:31 @ And he said, "Come in, O blessed of the LORD! Why do you stand outside? For I have prepared the house, and a place for the camels."

nkjv@Genesis:24:32 @ Then the man came to the house. And he unloaded the camels, and provided straw and feed for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who were with him.

nkjv@Genesis:24:51 @ Here is Rebekah before you; take her and go, and let her be your master's son's wife, as the LORD has spoken."

nkjv@Genesis:24:52 @ And it came to pass, when Abraham's servant heard their words, that he worshiped the LORD, bowing himself to the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:24:53 @ Then the servant brought out jewelry of silver, jewelry of gold, and clothing, and gave them to Rebekah. He also gave precious things to her brother and to her mother.

nkjv@Genesis:24:54 @ And he and the men who were with him ate and drank and stayed all night. Then they arose in the morning, and he said, "Send me away to my master."

nkjv@Genesis:24:55 @ But her brother and her mother said, "Let the young woman stay with us a few days, at least ten; after that she may go."

nkjv@Genesis:24:56 @ And he said to them, "Do not hinder me, since the LORD has prospered my way; send me away so that I may go to my master."

nkjv@Genesis:24:57 @ So they said, "We will call the young woman and ask her personally."

nkjv@Genesis:24:58 @ Then they called Rebekah and said to her, "Will you go with this man?" And she said, "I will go."

nkjv@Genesis:24:59 @ So they sent away Rebekah their sister and her nurse, and Abraham's servant and his men.

nkjv@Genesis:24:60 @ And they blessed Rebekah and said to her: "Our sister, may you become The mother of thousands of ten thousands; And may your descendants possess The gates of those who hate them."

nkjv@Genesis:24:61 @ Then Rebekah and her maids arose, and they rode on the camels and followed the man. So the servant took Rebekah and departed.

nkjv@Genesis:24:63 @ And Isaac went out to meditate in the field in the evening; and he lifted his eyes and looked, and there, the camels were coming.

nkjv@Genesis:24:64 @ Then Rebekah lifted her eyes, and when she saw Isaac she dismounted from her camel;

nkjv@Genesis:24:65 @ for she had said to the servant, "Who is this man walking in the field to meet us?" The servant said, "It is my master." So she took a veil and covered herself.

nkjv@Genesis:24:66 @ And the servant told Isaac all the things that he had done.

nkjv@Genesis:24:67 @ Then Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent; and he took Rebekah and she became his wife, and he loved her. So Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.

nkjv@Genesis:25:1 @ Abraham again took a wife, and her name was Keturah.

nkjv@Genesis:25:2 @ And she bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.

nkjv@Genesis:25:3 @ Jokshan begot Sheba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.

nkjv@Genesis:25:4 @ And the sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abidah, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

nkjv@Genesis:25:5 @ And Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:25:6 @ But Abraham gave gifts to the sons of the concubines which Abraham had; and while he was still living he sent them eastward, away from Isaac his son, to the country of the east.

nkjv@Genesis:25:7 @ This is the sum of the years of Abraham's life which he lived: one hundred and seventy-five years.

nkjv@Genesis:25:8 @ Then Abraham breathed his last and died in a good old age, an old man and full of years, and was gathered to his people.

nkjv@Genesis:25:9 @ And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite,

nkjv@Genesis:25:10 @ the field which Abraham purchased from the sons of Heth. There Abraham was buried, and Sarah his wife.

nkjv@Genesis:25:11 @ And it came to pass, after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac. And Isaac dwelt at Beer Lahai Roi.

nkjv@Genesis:25:13 @ And these were the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: The firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

nkjv@Genesis:25:15 @ Hadar, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

nkjv@Genesis:25:16 @ These were the sons of Ishmael and these were their names, by their towns and their settlements, twelve princes according to their nations.

nkjv@Genesis:25:17 @ These were the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred and thirty-seven years; and he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people.

nkjv@Genesis:25:21 @ Now Isaac pleaded with the LORD for his wife, because she was barren; and the LORD granted his plea, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

nkjv@Genesis:25:22 @ But the children struggled together within her; and she said, "If all is well, why am I like this?

nkjv@Genesis:25:23 @ And the LORD said to her: "Two nations are in your womb, Two peoples shall be separated from your body; One people shall be stronger than the other, And the older shall serve the younger."

nkjv@Genesis:25:25 @ And the first came out red. He was like a hairy garment all over; so they called his name Esau.

nkjv@Genesis:25:26 @ Afterward his brother came out, and his hand took hold of Esau's heel; so his name was called Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

nkjv@Genesis:25:27 @ So the boys grew. And Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field; but Jacob was a mild man, dwelling in tents.

nkjv@Genesis:25:28 @ And Isaac loved Esau because he ate of his game, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

nkjv@Genesis:25:29 @ Now Jacob cooked a stew; and Esau came in from the field, and he was weary.

nkjv@Genesis:25:30 @ And Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am weary." Therefore his name was called Edom.

nkjv@Genesis:25:32 @ And Esau said, "Look, I am about to die; so what is this birthright to me?"

nkjv@Genesis:25:33 @ Then Jacob said, "Swear to me as of this day." So he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob.

nkjv@Genesis:25:34 @ And Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils; then he ate and drank, arose, and went his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright.

nkjv@Genesis:26:1 @ There was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines, in Gerar.

nkjv@Genesis:26:2 @ Then the LORD appeared to him and said: "Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land of which I shall tell you.

nkjv@Genesis:26:3 @ Dwell in this land, and I will be with you and bless you; for to you and your descendants I give all these lands, and I will perform the oath which I swore to Abraham your father.

nkjv@Genesis:26:4 @ And I will make your descendants multiply as the stars of heaven; I will give to your descendants all these lands; and in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed;

nkjv@Genesis:26:5 @ because Abraham obeyed My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws."

nkjv@Genesis:26:7 @ And the men of the place asked about his wife. And he said, "She is my sister"; for he was afraid to say, "She is my wife," because he thought, "lest the men of the place kill me for Rebekah, because she is beautiful to behold."

nkjv@Genesis:26:8 @ Now it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked through a window, and saw, and there was Isaac, showing endearment to Rebekah his wife.

nkjv@Genesis:26:9 @ Then Abimelech called Isaac and said, "Quite obviously she is your wife; so how could you say, "She is my sister'?" Isaac said to him, "Because I said, "Lest I die on account of her.'

nkjv@Genesis:26:10 @ And Abimelech said, "What is this you have done to us? One of the people might soon have lain with your wife, and you would have brought guilt on us."

nkjv@Genesis:26:12 @ Then Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the LORD blessed him.

nkjv@Genesis:26:13 @ The man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous;

nkjv@Genesis:26:14 @ for he had possessions of flocks and possessions of herds and a great number of servants. So the Philistines envied him.

nkjv@Genesis:26:15 @ Now the Philistines had stopped up all the wells which his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, and they had filled them with earth.

nkjv@Genesis:26:16 @ And Abimelech said to Isaac, "Go away from us, for you are much mightier than we."

nkjv@Genesis:26:17 @ Then Isaac departed from there and pitched his tent in the Valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.

nkjv@Genesis:26:18 @ And Isaac dug again the wells of water which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father, for the Philistines had stopped them up after the death of Abraham. He called them by the names which his father had called them.

nkjv@Genesis:26:19 @ Also Isaac's servants dug in the valley, and found a well of running water there.

nkjv@Genesis:26:21 @ Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over that one also. So he called its name Sitnah.

nkjv@Genesis:26:22 @ And he moved from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. So he called its name Rehoboth, because he said, "For now the LORD has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land."

nkjv@Genesis:26:24 @ And the LORD appeared to him the same night and said, "I am the God of your father Abraham; do not fear, for I am with you. I will bless you and multiply your descendants for My servant Abraham's sake."

nkjv@Genesis:26:25 @ So he built an altar there and called on the name of the LORD, and he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac's servants dug a well.

nkjv@Genesis:26:26 @ Then Abimelech came to him from Gerar with Ahuzzath, one of his friends, and Phichol the commander of his army.

nkjv@Genesis:26:27 @ And Isaac said to them, "Why have you come to me, since you hate me and have sent me away from you?"

nkjv@Genesis:26:28 @ But they said, "We have certainly seen that the LORD is with you. So we said, "Let there now be an oath between us, between you and us; and let us make a covenant with you,

nkjv@Genesis:26:29 @ that you will do us no harm, since we have not touched you, and since we have done nothing to you but good and have sent you away in peace. You are now the blessed of the LORD."'

nkjv@Genesis:26:30 @ So he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.

nkjv@Genesis:26:31 @ Then they arose early in the morning and swore an oath with one another; and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.

nkjv@Genesis:26:32 @ It came to pass the same day that Isaac's servants came and told him about the well which they had dug, and said to him, "We have found water."

nkjv@Genesis:26:34 @ When Esau was forty years old, he took as wives Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite.

nkjv@Genesis:26:35 @ And they were a grief of mind to Isaac and Rebekah.

nkjv@Genesis:27:1 @ Now it came to pass, when Isaac was old and his eyes were so dim that he could not see, that he called Esau his older son and said to him, "My son." And he answered him, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:27:3 @ Now therefore, please take your weapons, your quiver and your bow, and go out to the field and hunt game for me.

nkjv@Genesis:27:4 @ And make me savory food, such as I love, and bring it to me that I may eat, that my soul may bless you before I die."

nkjv@Genesis:27:5 @ Now Rebekah was listening when Isaac spoke to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt game and to bring it.

nkjv@Genesis:27:7 @ "Bring me game and make savory food for me, that I may eat it and bless you in the presence of the LORD before my death.'

nkjv@Genesis:27:8 @ Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to what I command you.

nkjv@Genesis:27:9 @ Go now to the flock and bring me from there two choice kids of the goats, and I will make savory food from them for your father, such as he loves.

nkjv@Genesis:27:10 @ Then you shall take it to your father, that he may eat it, and that he may bless you before his death."

nkjv@Genesis:27:11 @ And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, "Look, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth-skinned man.

nkjv@Genesis:27:12 @ Perhaps my father will feel me, and I shall seem to be a deceiver to him; and I shall bring a curse on myself and not a blessing."

nkjv@Genesis:27:13 @ But his mother said to him, "Let your curse be on me, my son; only obey my voice, and go, get them for me."

nkjv@Genesis:27:14 @ And he went and got them and brought them to his mother, and his mother made savory food, such as his father loved.

nkjv@Genesis:27:15 @ Then Rebekah took the choice clothes of her elder son Esau, which were with her in the house, and put them on Jacob her younger son.

nkjv@Genesis:27:16 @ And she put the skins of the kids of the goats on his hands and on the smooth part of his neck.

nkjv@Genesis:27:17 @ Then she gave the savory food and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob.

nkjv@Genesis:27:18 @ So he went to his father and said, "My father." And he said, "Here I am. Who are you, my son?"

nkjv@Genesis:27:19 @ Jacob said to his father, "I am Esau your firstborn; I have done just as you told me; please arise, sit and eat of my game, that your soul may bless me."

nkjv@Genesis:27:20 @ But Isaac said to his son, "How is it that you have found it so quickly, my son?" And he said, "Because the LORD your God brought it to me."

nkjv@Genesis:27:22 @ So Jacob went near to Isaac his father, and he felt him and said, "The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau."

nkjv@Genesis:27:23 @ And he did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like his brother Esau's hands; so he blessed him.

nkjv@Genesis:27:25 @ He said, "Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's game, so that my soul may bless you." So he brought it near to him, and he ate; and he brought him wine, and he drank.

nkjv@Genesis:27:26 @ Then his father Isaac said to him, "Come near now and kiss me, my son."

nkjv@Genesis:27:27 @ And he came near and kissed him; and he smelled the smell of his clothing, and blessed him and said: "Surely, the smell of my son Is like the smell of a field Which the LORD has blessed.

nkjv@Genesis:27:28 @ Therefore may God give you Of the dew of heaven, Of the fatness of the earth, And plenty of grain and wine.

nkjv@Genesis:27:29 @ Let peoples serve you, And nations bow down to you. Be master over your brethren, And let your mother's sons bow down to you. Cursed be everyone who curses you, And blessed be those who bless you!"

nkjv@Genesis:27:30 @ Now it happened, as soon as Isaac had finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob had scarcely gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting.

nkjv@Genesis:27:31 @ He also had made savory food, and brought it to his father, and said to his father, "Let my father arise and eat of his son's game, that your soul may bless me."

nkjv@Genesis:27:32 @ And his father Isaac said to him, "Who are you?" So he said, "I am your son, your firstborn, Esau."

nkjv@Genesis:27:33 @ Then Isaac trembled exceedingly, and said, "Who? Where is the one who hunted game and brought it to me? I ate all of it before you came, and I have blessed him--and indeed he shall be blessed."

nkjv@Genesis:27:34 @ When Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with an exceedingly great and bitter cry, and said to his father, "Bless me--me also, O my father!"

nkjv@Genesis:27:35 @ But he said, "Your brother came with deceit and has taken away your blessing."

nkjv@Genesis:27:36 @ And Esau said, "Is he not rightly named Jacob? For he has supplanted me these two times. He took away my birthright, and now look, he has taken away my blessing!" And he said, "Have you not reserved a blessing for me?"

nkjv@Genesis:27:37 @ Then Isaac answered and said to Esau, "Indeed I have made him your master, and all his brethren I have given to him as servants; with grain and wine I have sustained him. What shall I do now for you, my son?"

nkjv@Genesis:27:38 @ And Esau said to his father, "Have you only one blessing, my father? Bless me--me also, O my father!" And Esau lifted up his voice and wept.

nkjv@Genesis:27:39 @ Then Isaac his father answered and said to him: "Behold, your dwelling shall be of the fatness of the earth, And of the dew of heaven from above.

nkjv@Genesis:27:40 @ By your sword you shall live, And you shall serve your brother; And it shall come to pass, when you become restless, That you shall break his yoke from your neck."

nkjv@Genesis:27:41 @ So Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau said in his heart, "The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then I will kill my brother Jacob."

nkjv@Genesis:27:42 @ And the words of Esau her older son were told to Rebekah. So she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said to him, "Surely your brother Esau comforts himself concerning you by intending to kill you.

nkjv@Genesis:27:44 @ And stay with him a few days, until your brother's fury turns away,

nkjv@Genesis:27:45 @ until your brother's anger turns away from you, and he forgets what you have done to him; then I will send and bring you from there. Why should I be bereaved also of you both in one day?"

nkjv@Genesis:27:46 @ And Rebekah said to Isaac, "I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob takes a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these who are the daughters of the land, what good will my life be to me?"

nkjv@Genesis:28:1 @ Then Isaac called Jacob and blessed him, and charged him, and said to him: "You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:28:2 @ Arise, go to Padan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father; and take yourself a wife from there of the daughters of Laban your mother's brother.

nkjv@Genesis:28:3 @ "May God Almighty bless you, And make you fruitful and multiply you, That you may be an assembly of peoples;

nkjv@Genesis:28:4 @ And give you the blessing of Abraham, To you and your descendants with you, That you may inherit the land In which you are a stranger, Which God gave to Abraham."

nkjv@Genesis:28:5 @ So Isaac sent Jacob away, and he went to Padan Aram, to Laban the son of Bethuel the Syrian, the brother of Rebekah, the mother of Jacob and Esau.

nkjv@Genesis:28:6 @ Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Padan Aram to take himself a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a charge, saying, "You shall not take a wife from the daughters of Canaan,"

nkjv@Genesis:28:7 @ and that Jacob had obeyed his father and his mother and had gone to Padan Aram.

nkjv@Genesis:28:9 @ So Esau went to Ishmael and took Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife in addition to the wives he had.

nkjv@Genesis:28:10 @ Now Jacob went out from Beersheba and went toward Haran.

nkjv@Genesis:28:11 @ So he came to a certain place and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. And he took one of the stones of that place and put it at his head, and he lay down in that place to sleep.

nkjv@Genesis:28:12 @ Then he dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.

nkjv@Genesis:28:13 @ And behold, the LORD stood above it and said: "I am the LORD God of Abraham your father and the God of Isaac; the land on which you lie I will give to you and your descendants.

nkjv@Genesis:28:14 @ Also your descendants shall be as the dust of the earth; you shall spread abroad to the west and the east, to the north and the south; and in you and in your seed all the families of the earth shall be blessed.

nkjv@Genesis:28:15 @ Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you."

nkjv@Genesis:28:16 @ Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, "Surely the LORD is in this place, and I did not know it."

nkjv@Genesis:28:17 @ And he was afraid and said, "How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven!"

nkjv@Genesis:28:18 @ Then Jacob rose early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put at his head, set it up as a pillar, and poured oil on top of it.

nkjv@Genesis:28:19 @ And he called the name of that place Bethel; but the name of that city had been Luz previously.

nkjv@Genesis:28:20 @ Then Jacob made a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and keep me in this way that I am going, and give me bread to eat and clothing to put on,

nkjv@Genesis:28:22 @ And this stone which I have set as a pillar shall be God's house, and of all that You give me I will surely give a tenth to You."

nkjv@Genesis:29:1 @ So Jacob went on his journey and came to the land of the people of the East.

nkjv@Genesis:29:2 @ And he looked, and saw a well in the field; and behold, there were three flocks of sheep lying by it; for out of that well they watered the flocks. A large stone was on the well's mouth.

nkjv@Genesis:29:3 @ Now all the flocks would be gathered there; and they would roll the stone from the well's mouth, water the sheep, and put the stone back in its place on the well's mouth.

nkjv@Genesis:29:4 @ And Jacob said to them, "My brethren, where are you from?" And they said, "We are from Haran."

nkjv@Genesis:29:5 @ Then he said to them, "Do you know Laban the son of Nahor?" And they said, "We know him."

nkjv@Genesis:29:6 @ So he said to them, "Is he well?" And they said, "He is well. And look, his daughter Rachel is coming with the sheep."

nkjv@Genesis:29:7 @ Then he said, "Look, it is still high day; it is not time for the cattle to be gathered together. Water the sheep, and go and feed them."

nkjv@Genesis:29:8 @ But they said, "We cannot until all the flocks are gathered together, and they have rolled the stone from the well's mouth; then we water the sheep."

nkjv@Genesis:29:10 @ And it came to pass, when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the sheep of Laban his mother's brother, that Jacob went near and rolled the stone from the well's mouth, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.

nkjv@Genesis:29:11 @ Then Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice and wept.

nkjv@Genesis:29:12 @ And Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's relative and that he was Rebekah's son. So she ran and told her father.

nkjv@Genesis:29:13 @ Then it came to pass, when Laban heard the report about Jacob his sister's son, that he ran to meet him, and embraced him and kissed him, and brought him to his house. So he told Laban all these things.

nkjv@Genesis:29:14 @ And Laban said to him, "Surely you are my bone and my flesh." And he stayed with him for a month.

nkjv@Genesis:29:16 @ Now Laban had two daughters: the name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger was Rachel.

nkjv@Genesis:29:17 @ Leah's eyes were delicate, but Rachel was beautiful of form and appearance.

nkjv@Genesis:29:19 @ And Laban said, "It is better that I give her to you than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me."

nkjv@Genesis:29:20 @ So Jacob served seven years for Rachel, and they seemed only a few days to him because of the love he had for her.

nkjv@Genesis:29:22 @ And Laban gathered together all the men of the place and made a feast.

nkjv@Genesis:29:23 @ Now it came to pass in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter and brought her to Jacob; and he went in to her.

nkjv@Genesis:29:24 @ And Laban gave his maid Zilpah to his daughter Leah as a maid.

nkjv@Genesis:29:25 @ So it came to pass in the morning, that behold, it was Leah. And he said to Laban, "What is this you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served you? Why then have you deceived me?"

nkjv@Genesis:29:26 @ And Laban said, "It must not be done so in our country, to give the younger before the firstborn.

nkjv@Genesis:29:27 @ Fulfill her week, and we will give you this one also for the service which you will serve with me still another seven years."

nkjv@Genesis:29:28 @ Then Jacob did so and fulfilled her week. So he gave him his daughter Rachel as wife also.

nkjv@Genesis:29:29 @ And Laban gave his maid Bilhah to his daughter Rachel as a maid.

nkjv@Genesis:29:30 @ Then Jacob also went in to Rachel, and he also loved Rachel more than Leah. And he served with Laban still another seven years.

nkjv@Genesis:29:32 @ So Leah conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Reuben; for she said, "The LORD has surely looked on my affliction. Now therefore, my husband will love me."

nkjv@Genesis:29:33 @ Then she conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Because the LORD has heard that I am unloved, He has therefore given me this son also." And she called his name Simeon.

nkjv@Genesis:29:34 @ She conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Now this time my husband will become attached to me, because I have borne him three sons." Therefore his name was called Levi.

nkjv@Genesis:29:35 @ And she conceived again and bore a son, and said, "Now I will praise the LORD." Therefore she called his name Judah. Then she stopped bearing.

nkjv@Genesis:30:1 @ Now when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister, and said to Jacob, "Give me children, or else I die!"

nkjv@Genesis:30:2 @ And Jacob's anger was aroused against Rachel, and he said, "Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?"

nkjv@Genesis:30:3 @ So she said, "Here is my maid Bilhah; go in to her, and she will bear a child on my knees, that I also may have children by her."

nkjv@Genesis:30:4 @ Then she gave him Bilhah her maid as wife, and Jacob went in to her.

nkjv@Genesis:30:5 @ And Bilhah conceived and bore Jacob a son.

nkjv@Genesis:30:6 @ Then Rachel said, "God has judged my case; and He has also heard my voice and given me a son." Therefore she called his name Dan.

nkjv@Genesis:30:7 @ And Rachel's maid Bilhah conceived again and bore Jacob a second son.

nkjv@Genesis:30:8 @ Then Rachel said, "With great wrestlings I have wrestled with my sister, and indeed I have prevailed." So she called his name Naphtali.

nkjv@Genesis:30:9 @ When Leah saw that she had stopped bearing, she took Zilpah her maid and gave her to Jacob as wife.

nkjv@Genesis:30:10 @ And Leah's maid Zilpah bore Jacob a son.

nkjv@Genesis:30:12 @ And Leah's maid Zilpah bore Jacob a second son.

nkjv@Genesis:30:14 @ Now Reuben went in the days of wheat harvest and found mandrakes in the field, and brought them to his mother Leah. Then Rachel said to Leah, "Please give me some of your son's mandrakes."

nkjv@Genesis:30:15 @ But she said to her, "Is it a small matter that you have taken away my husband? Would you take away my son's mandrakes also?" And Rachel said, "Therefore he will lie with you tonight for your son's mandrakes."

nkjv@Genesis:30:16 @ When Jacob came out of the field in the evening, Leah went out to meet him and said, "You must come in to me, for I have surely hired you with my son's mandrakes." And he lay with her that night.

nkjv@Genesis:30:17 @ And God listened to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son.

nkjv@Genesis:30:18 @ Leah said, "God has given me my wages, because I have given my maid to my husband." So she called his name Issachar.

nkjv@Genesis:30:19 @ Then Leah conceived again and bore Jacob a sixth son.

nkjv@Genesis:30:20 @ And Leah said, "God has endowed me with a good endowment; now my husband will dwell with me, because I have borne him six sons." So she called his name Zebulun.

nkjv@Genesis:30:21 @ Afterward she bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah.

nkjv@Genesis:30:22 @ Then God remembered Rachel, and God listened to her and opened her womb.

nkjv@Genesis:30:23 @ And she conceived and bore a son, and said, "God has taken away my reproach."

nkjv@Genesis:30:24 @ So she called his name Joseph, and said, "The LORD shall add to me another son."

nkjv@Genesis:30:25 @ And it came to pass, when Rachel had borne Joseph, that Jacob said to Laban, "Send me away, that I may go to my own place and to my country.

nkjv@Genesis:30:26 @ Give me my wives and my children for whom I have served you, and let me go; for you know my service which I have done for you."

nkjv@Genesis:30:27 @ And Laban said to him, "Please stay, if I have found favor in your eyes, for I have learned by experience that the LORD has blessed me for your sake."

nkjv@Genesis:30:28 @ Then he said, "Name me your wages, and I will give it."

nkjv@Genesis:30:29 @ So Jacob said to him, "You know how I have served you and how your livestock has been with me.

nkjv@Genesis:30:30 @ For what you had before I came was little, and it has increased to a great amount; the LORD has blessed you since my coming. And now, when shall I also provide for my own house?"

nkjv@Genesis:30:31 @ So he said, "What shall I give you?" And Jacob said, "You shall not give me anything. If you will do this thing for me, I will again feed and keep your flocks:

nkjv@Genesis:30:32 @ Let me pass through all your flock today, removing from there all the speckled and spotted sheep, and all the brown ones among the lambs, and the spotted and speckled among the goats; and these shall be my wages.

nkjv@Genesis:30:33 @ So my righteousness will answer for me in time to come, when the subject of my wages comes before you: every one that is not speckled and spotted among the goats, and brown among the lambs, will be considered stolen, if it is with me."

nkjv@Genesis:30:34 @ And Laban said, "Oh, that it were according to your word!"

nkjv@Genesis:30:35 @ So he removed that day the male goats that were speckled and spotted, all the female goats that were speckled and spotted, every one that had some white in it, and all the brown ones among the lambs, and gave them into the hand of his sons.

nkjv@Genesis:30:36 @ Then he put three days' journey between himself and Jacob, and Jacob fed the rest of Laban's flocks.

nkjv@Genesis:30:37 @ Now Jacob took for himself rods of green poplar and of the almond and chestnut trees, peeled white strips in them, and exposed the white which was in the rods.

nkjv@Genesis:30:38 @ And the rods which he had peeled, he set before the flocks in the gutters, in the watering troughs where the flocks came to drink, so that they should conceive when they came to drink.

nkjv@Genesis:30:39 @ So the flocks conceived before the rods, and the flocks brought forth streaked, speckled, and spotted.

nkjv@Genesis:30:40 @ Then Jacob separated the lambs, and made the flocks face toward the streaked and all the brown in the flock of Laban; but he put his own flocks by themselves and did not put them with Laban's flock.

nkjv@Genesis:30:41 @ And it came to pass, whenever the stronger livestock conceived, that Jacob placed the rods before the eyes of the livestock in the gutters, that they might conceive among the rods.

nkjv@Genesis:30:42 @ But when the flocks were feeble, he did not put them in; so the feebler were Laban's and the stronger Jacob's.

nkjv@Genesis:30:43 @ Thus the man became exceedingly prosperous, and had large flocks, female and male servants, and camels and donkeys.

nkjv@Genesis:31:1 @ Now Jacob heard the words of Laban's sons, saying, "Jacob has taken away all that was our father's, and from what was our father's he has acquired all this wealth."

nkjv@Genesis:31:2 @ And Jacob saw the countenance of Laban, and indeed it was not favorable toward him as before.

nkjv@Genesis:31:3 @ Then the LORD said to Jacob, "Return to the land of your fathers and to your family, and I will be with you."

nkjv@Genesis:31:4 @ So Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field, to his flock,

nkjv@Genesis:31:5 @ and said to them, "I see your father's countenance, that it is not favorable toward me as before; but the God of my father has been with me.

nkjv@Genesis:31:6 @ And you know that with all my might I have served your father.

nkjv@Genesis:31:7 @ Yet your father has deceived me and changed my wages ten times, but God did not allow him to hurt me.

nkjv@Genesis:31:8 @ If he said thus: "The speckled shall be your wages,' then all the flocks bore speckled. And if he said thus: "The streaked shall be your wages,' then all the flocks bore streaked.

nkjv@Genesis:31:9 @ So God has taken away the livestock of your father and given them to me.

nkjv@Genesis:31:10 @ "And it happened, at the time when the flocks conceived, that I lifted my eyes and saw in a dream, and behold, the rams which leaped upon the flocks were streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted.

nkjv@Genesis:31:11 @ Then the Angel of God spoke to me in a dream, saying, "Jacob.' And I said, "Here I am.'

nkjv@Genesis:31:12 @ And He said, "Lift your eyes now and see, all the rams which leap on the flocks are streaked, speckled, and gray-spotted; for I have seen all that Laban is doing to you.

nkjv@Genesis:31:13 @ I am the God of Bethel, where you anointed the pillar and where you made a vow to Me. Now arise, get out of this land, and return to the land of your family."'

nkjv@Genesis:31:14 @ Then Rachel and Leah answered and said to him, "Is there still any portion or inheritance for us in our father's house?

nkjv@Genesis:31:15 @ Are we not considered strangers by him? For he has sold us, and also completely consumed our money.

nkjv@Genesis:31:16 @ For all these riches which God has taken from our father are really ours and our children's; now then, whatever God has said to you, do it."

nkjv@Genesis:31:17 @ Then Jacob rose and set his sons and his wives on camels.

nkjv@Genesis:31:18 @ And he carried away all his livestock and all his possessions which he had gained, his acquired livestock which he had gained in Padan Aram, to go to his father Isaac in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:31:19 @ Now Laban had gone to shear his sheep, and Rachel had stolen the household idols that were her father's.

nkjv@Genesis:31:20 @ And Jacob stole away, unknown to Laban the Syrian, in that he did not tell him that he intended to flee.

nkjv@Genesis:31:21 @ So he fled with all that he had. He arose and crossed the river, and headed toward the mountains of Gilead.

nkjv@Genesis:31:22 @ And Laban was told on the third day that Jacob had fled.

nkjv@Genesis:31:23 @ Then he took his brethren with him and pursued him for seven days' journey, and he overtook him in the mountains of Gilead.

nkjv@Genesis:31:24 @ But God had come to Laban the Syrian in a dream by night, and said to him, "Be careful that you speak to Jacob neither good nor bad."

nkjv@Genesis:31:25 @ So Laban overtook Jacob. Now Jacob had pitched his tent in the mountains, and Laban with his brethren pitched in the mountains of Gilead.

nkjv@Genesis:31:26 @ And Laban said to Jacob: "What have you done, that you have stolen away unknown to me, and carried away my daughters like captives taken with the sword?

nkjv@Genesis:31:27 @ Why did you flee away secretly, and steal away from me, and not tell me; for I might have sent you away with joy and songs, with timbrel and harp?

nkjv@Genesis:31:28 @ And you did not allow me to kiss my sons and my daughters. Now you have done foolishly in so doing.

nkjv@Genesis:31:30 @ And now you have surely gone because you greatly long for your father's house, but why did you steal my gods?"

nkjv@Genesis:31:31 @ Then Jacob answered and said to Laban, "Because I was afraid, for I said, "Perhaps you would take your daughters from me by force.'

nkjv@Genesis:31:32 @ With whomever you find your gods, do not let him live. In the presence of our brethren, identify what I have of yours and take it with you." For Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.

nkjv@Genesis:31:33 @ And Laban went into Jacob's tent, into Leah's tent, and into the two maids' tents, but he did not find them. Then he went out of Leah's tent and entered Rachel's tent.

nkjv@Genesis:31:34 @ Now Rachel had taken the household idols, put them in the camel's saddle, and sat on them. And Laban searched all about the tent but did not find them.

nkjv@Genesis:31:35 @ And she said to her father, "Let it not displease my lord that I cannot rise before you, for the manner of women is with me." And he searched but did not find the household idols.

nkjv@Genesis:31:36 @ Then Jacob was angry and rebuked Laban, and Jacob answered and said to Laban: "What is my trespass? What is my sin, that you have so hotly pursued me?

nkjv@Genesis:31:37 @ Although you have searched all my things, what part of your household things have you found? Set it here before my brethren and your brethren, that they may judge between us both!

nkjv@Genesis:31:38 @ These twenty years I have been with you; your ewes and your female goats have not miscarried their young, and I have not eaten the rams of your flock.

nkjv@Genesis:31:39 @ That which was torn by beasts I did not bring to you; I bore the loss of it. You required it from my hand, whether stolen by day or stolen by night.

nkjv@Genesis:31:40 @ There I was! In the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night, and my sleep departed from my eyes.

nkjv@Genesis:31:41 @ Thus I have been in your house twenty years; I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock, and you have changed my wages ten times.

nkjv@Genesis:31:42 @ Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had been with me, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God has seen my affliction and the labor of my hands, and rebuked you last night."

nkjv@Genesis:31:43 @ And Laban answered and said to Jacob, "These daughters are my daughters, and these children are my children, and this flock is my flock; all that you see is mine. But what can I do this day to these my daughters or to their children whom they have borne?

nkjv@Genesis:31:44 @ Now therefore, come, let us make a covenant, you and I, and let it be a witness between you and me."

nkjv@Genesis:31:45 @ So Jacob took a stone and set it up as a pillar.

nkjv@Genesis:31:46 @ Then Jacob said to his brethren, "Gather stones." And they took stones and made a heap, and they ate there on the heap.

nkjv@Genesis:31:48 @ And Laban said, "This heap is a witness between you and me this day." Therefore its name was called Galeed,

nkjv@Genesis:31:49 @ also Mizpah, because he said, "May the LORD watch between you and me when we are absent one from another.

nkjv@Genesis:31:50 @ If you afflict my daughters, or if you take other wives besides my daughters, although no man is with us--see, God is witness between you and me!"

nkjv@Genesis:31:51 @ Then Laban said to Jacob, "Here is this heap and here is this pillar, which I have placed between you and me.

nkjv@Genesis:31:52 @ This heap is a witness, and this pillar is a witness, that I will not pass beyond this heap to you, and you will not pass beyond this heap and this pillar to me, for harm.

nkjv@Genesis:31:53 @ The God of Abraham, the God of Nahor, and the God of their father judge between us." And Jacob swore by the Fear of his father Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:31:54 @ Then Jacob offered a sacrifice on the mountain, and called his brethren to eat bread. And they ate bread and stayed all night on the mountain.

nkjv@Genesis:31:55 @ And early in the morning Laban arose, and kissed his sons and daughters and blessed them. Then Laban departed and returned to his place.

nkjv@Genesis:32:1 @ So Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him.

nkjv@Genesis:32:2 @ When Jacob saw them, he said, "This is God's camp." And he called the name of that place Mahanaim.

nkjv@Genesis:32:3 @ Then Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.

nkjv@Genesis:32:4 @ And he commanded them, saying, "Speak thus to my lord Esau, "Thus your servant Jacob says: "I have dwelt with Laban and stayed there until now.

nkjv@Genesis:32:5 @ I have oxen, donkeys, flocks, and male and female servants; and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in your sight.""'

nkjv@Genesis:32:6 @ Then the messengers returned to Jacob, saying, "We came to your brother Esau, and he also is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him."

nkjv@Genesis:32:7 @ So Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two companies.

nkjv@Genesis:32:8 @ And he said, "If Esau comes to the one company and attacks it, then the other company which is left will escape."

nkjv@Genesis:32:9 @ Then Jacob said, "O God of my father Abraham and God of my father Isaac, the LORD who said to me, "Return to your country and to your family, and I will deal well with you':

nkjv@Genesis:32:10 @ I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies and of all the truth which You have shown Your servant; for I crossed over this Jordan with my staff, and now I have become two companies.

nkjv@Genesis:32:11 @ Deliver me, I pray, from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and attack me and the mother with the children.

nkjv@Genesis:32:12 @ For You said, "I will surely treat you well, and make your descendants as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude."'

nkjv@Genesis:32:13 @ So he lodged there that same night, and took what came to his hand as a present for Esau his brother:

nkjv@Genesis:32:14 @ two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams,

nkjv@Genesis:32:15 @ thirty milk camels with their colts, forty cows and ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten foals.

nkjv@Genesis:32:16 @ Then he delivered them to the hand of his servants, every drove by itself, and said to his servants, "Pass over before me, and put some distance between successive droves."

nkjv@Genesis:32:17 @ And he commanded the first one, saying, "When Esau my brother meets you and asks you, saying, "To whom do you belong, and where are you going? Whose are these in front of you?'

nkjv@Genesis:32:18 @ then you shall say, "They are your servant Jacob's. It is a present sent to my lord Esau; and behold, he also is behind us."'

nkjv@Genesis:32:19 @ So he commanded the second, the third, and all who followed the droves, saying, "In this manner you shall speak to Esau when you find him;

nkjv@Genesis:32:20 @ and also say, "Behold, your servant Jacob is behind us."' For he said, "I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face; perhaps he will accept me."

nkjv@Genesis:32:22 @ And he arose that night and took his two wives, his two female servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of Jabbok.

nkjv@Genesis:32:23 @ He took them, sent them over the brook, and sent over what he had.

nkjv@Genesis:32:24 @ Then Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestled with him until the breaking of day.

nkjv@Genesis:32:25 @ Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob's hip was out of joint as He wrestled with him.

nkjv@Genesis:32:26 @ And He said, "Let Me go, for the day breaks." But he said, "I will not let You go unless You bless me!"

nkjv@Genesis:32:28 @ And He said, "Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed."

nkjv@Genesis:32:29 @ Then Jacob asked, saying, "Tell me Your name, I pray." And He said, "Why is it that you ask about My name?" And He blessed him there.

nkjv@Genesis:32:30 @ So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: "For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved."

nkjv@Genesis:32:31 @ Just as he crossed over Penuel the sun rose on him, and he limped on his hip.

nkjv@Genesis:33:1 @ Now Jacob lifted his eyes and looked, and there, Esau was coming, and with him were four hundred men. So he divided the children among Leah, Rachel, and the two maidservants.

nkjv@Genesis:33:2 @ And he put the maidservants and their children in front, Leah and her children behind, and Rachel and Joseph last.

nkjv@Genesis:33:3 @ Then he crossed over before them and bowed himself to the ground seven times, until he came near to his brother.

nkjv@Genesis:33:4 @ But Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him, and fell on his neck and kissed him, and they wept.

nkjv@Genesis:33:5 @ And he lifted his eyes and saw the women and children, and said, "Who are these with you?" So he said, "The children whom God has graciously given your servant."

nkjv@Genesis:33:6 @ Then the maidservants came near, they and their children, and bowed down.

nkjv@Genesis:33:7 @ And Leah also came near with her children, and they bowed down. Afterward Joseph and Rachel came near, and they bowed down.

nkjv@Genesis:33:8 @ Then Esau said, "What do you mean by all this company which I met?" And he said, "These are to find favor in the sight of my lord."

nkjv@Genesis:33:10 @ And Jacob said, "No, please, if I have now found favor in your sight, then receive my present from my hand, inasmuch as I have seen your face as though I had seen the face of God, and you were pleased with me.

nkjv@Genesis:33:11 @ Please, take my blessing that is brought to you, because God has dealt graciously with me, and because I have enough." So he urged him, and he took it.

nkjv@Genesis:33:12 @ Then Esau said, "Let us take our journey; let us go, and I will go before you."

nkjv@Genesis:33:13 @ But Jacob said to him, "My lord knows that the children are weak, and the flocks and herds which are nursing are with me. And if the men should drive them hard one day, all the flock will die.

nkjv@Genesis:33:14 @ Please let my lord go on ahead before his servant. I will lead on slowly at a pace which the livestock that go before me, and the children, are able to endure, until I come to my lord in Seir."

nkjv@Genesis:33:15 @ And Esau said, "Now let me leave with you some of the people who are with me." But he said, "What need is there? Let me find favor in the sight of my lord."

nkjv@Genesis:33:17 @ And Jacob journeyed to Succoth, built himself a house, and made booths for his livestock. Therefore the name of the place is called Succoth.

nkjv@Genesis:33:18 @ Then Jacob came safely to the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, when he came from Padan Aram; and he pitched his tent before the city.

nkjv@Genesis:33:19 @ And he bought the parcel of land, where he had pitched his tent, from the children of Hamor, Shechem's father, for one hundred pieces of money.

nkjv@Genesis:33:20 @ Then he erected an altar there and called it El Elohe Israel.

nkjv@Genesis:34:1 @ Now Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.

nkjv@Genesis:34:2 @ And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her and lay with her, and violated her.

nkjv@Genesis:34:3 @ His soul was strongly attracted to Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman and spoke kindly to the young woman.

nkjv@Genesis:34:5 @ And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. Now his sons were with his livestock in the field; so Jacob held his peace until they came.

nkjv@Genesis:34:7 @ And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were grieved and very angry, because he had done a disgraceful thing in Israel by lying with Jacob's daughter, a thing which ought not to be done.

nkjv@Genesis:34:9 @ And make marriages with us; give your daughters to us, and take our daughters to yourselves.

nkjv@Genesis:34:10 @ So you shall dwell with us, and the land shall be before you. Dwell and trade in it, and acquire possessions for yourselves in it."

nkjv@Genesis:34:11 @ Then Shechem said to her father and her brothers, "Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you say to me I will give.

nkjv@Genesis:34:12 @ Ask me ever so much dowry and gift, and I will give according to what you say to me; but give me the young woman as a wife."

nkjv@Genesis:34:13 @ But the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father, and spoke deceitfully, because he had defiled Dinah their sister.

nkjv@Genesis:34:14 @ And they said to them, "We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised, for that would be a reproach to us.

nkjv@Genesis:34:16 @ then we will give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to us; and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.

nkjv@Genesis:34:17 @ But if you will not heed us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and be gone."

nkjv@Genesis:34:18 @ And their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.

nkjv@Genesis:34:20 @ And Hamor and Shechem his son came to the gate of their city, and spoke with the men of their city, saying:

nkjv@Genesis:34:21 @ "These men are at peace with us. Therefore let them dwell in the land and trade in it. For indeed the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters to us as wives, and let us give them our daughters.

nkjv@Genesis:34:23 @ Will not their livestock, their property, and every animal of theirs be ours? Only let us consent to them, and they will dwell with us."

nkjv@Genesis:34:24 @ And all who went out of the gate of his city heeded Hamor and Shechem his son; every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.

nkjv@Genesis:34:25 @ Now it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each took his sword and came boldly upon the city and killed all the males.

nkjv@Genesis:34:26 @ And they killed Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah from Shechem's house, and went out.

nkjv@Genesis:34:27 @ The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and plundered the city, because their sister had been defiled.

nkjv@Genesis:34:28 @ They took their sheep, their oxen, and their donkeys, what was in the city and what was in the field,

nkjv@Genesis:34:29 @ and all their wealth. All their little ones and their wives they took captive; and they plundered even all that was in the houses.

nkjv@Genesis:34:30 @ Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have troubled me by making me obnoxious among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and since I am few in number, they will gather themselves together against me and kill me. I shall be destroyed, my household and I."

nkjv@Genesis:35:1 @ Then God said to Jacob, "Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there; and make an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother."

nkjv@Genesis:35:2 @ And Jacob said to his household and to all who were with him, "Put away the foreign gods that are among you, purify yourselves, and change your garments.

nkjv@Genesis:35:3 @ Then let us arise and go up to Bethel; and I will make an altar there to God, who answered me in the day of my distress and has been with me in the way which I have gone."

nkjv@Genesis:35:4 @ So they gave Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hands, and the earrings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the terebinth tree which was by Shechem.

nkjv@Genesis:35:5 @ And they journeyed, and the terror of God was upon the cities that were all around them, and they did not pursue the sons of Jacob.

nkjv@Genesis:35:6 @ So Jacob came to Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.

nkjv@Genesis:35:7 @ And he built an altar there and called the place El Bethel, because there God appeared to him when he fled from the face of his brother.

nkjv@Genesis:35:8 @ Now Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the terebinth tree. So the name of it was called Allon Bachuth.

nkjv@Genesis:35:9 @ Then God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Padan Aram, and blessed him.

nkjv@Genesis:35:10 @ And God said to him, "Your name is Jacob; your name shall not be called Jacob anymore, but Israel shall be your name." So He called his name Israel.

nkjv@Genesis:35:11 @ Also God said to him: "I am God Almighty. Be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall proceed from you, and kings shall come from your body.

nkjv@Genesis:35:12 @ The land which I gave Abraham and Isaac I give to you; and to your descendants after you I give this land."

nkjv@Genesis:35:14 @ So Jacob set up a pillar in the place where He talked with him, a pillar of stone; and he poured a drink offering on it, and he poured oil on it.

nkjv@Genesis:35:15 @ And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.

nkjv@Genesis:35:16 @ Then they journeyed from Bethel. And when there was but a little distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel labored in childbirth, and she had hard labor.

nkjv@Genesis:35:18 @ And so it was, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she called his name Ben-Oni; but his father called him Benjamin.

nkjv@Genesis:35:19 @ So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).

nkjv@Genesis:35:20 @ And Jacob set a pillar on her grave, which is the pillar of Rachel's grave to this day.

nkjv@Genesis:35:21 @ Then Israel journeyed and pitched his tent beyond the tower of Eder.

nkjv@Genesis:35:22 @ And it happened, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine; and Israel heard about it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve:

nkjv@Genesis:35:23 @ the sons of Leah were Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun;

nkjv@Genesis:35:24 @ the sons of Rachel were Joseph and Benjamin;

nkjv@Genesis:35:25 @ the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's maidservant, were Dan and Naphtali;

nkjv@Genesis:35:26 @ and the sons of Zilpah, Leah's maidservant, were Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Padan Aram.

nkjv@Genesis:35:27 @ Then Jacob came to his father Isaac at Mamre, or Kirjath Arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had dwelt.

nkjv@Genesis:35:28 @ Now the days of Isaac were one hundred and eighty years.

nkjv@Genesis:35:29 @ So Isaac breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his people, being old and full of days. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.

nkjv@Genesis:36:3 @ and Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth.

nkjv@Genesis:36:4 @ Now Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, and Basemath bore Reuel.

nkjv@Genesis:36:5 @ And Aholibamah bore Jeush, Jaalam, and Korah. These were the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:36:6 @ Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the persons of his household, his cattle and all his animals, and all his goods which he had gained in the land of Canaan, and went to a country away from the presence of his brother Jacob.

nkjv@Genesis:36:7 @ For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together, and the land where they were strangers could not support them because of their livestock.

nkjv@Genesis:36:9 @ And this is the genealogy of Esau the father of the Edomites in Mount Seir.

nkjv@Genesis:36:10 @ These were the names of Esau's sons: Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, and Reuel the son of Basemath the wife of Esau.

nkjv@Genesis:36:11 @ And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz.

nkjv@Genesis:36:12 @ Now Timna was the concubine of Eliphaz, Esau's son, and she bore Amalek to Eliphaz. These were the sons of Adah, Esau's wife.

nkjv@Genesis:36:13 @ These were the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. These were the sons of Basemath, Esau's wife.

nkjv@Genesis:36:14 @ These were the sons of Aholibamah, Esau's wife, the daughter of Anah, the daughter of Zibeon. And she bore to Esau: Jeush, Jaalam, and Korah.

nkjv@Genesis:36:16 @ Chief Korah, Chief Gatam, and Chief Amalek. These were the chiefs of Eliphaz in the land of Edom. They were the sons of Adah.

nkjv@Genesis:36:17 @ These were the sons of Reuel, Esau's son: Chief Nahath, Chief Zerah, Chief Shammah, and Chief Mizzah. These were the chiefs of Reuel in the land of Edom. These were the sons of Basemath, Esau's wife.

nkjv@Genesis:36:18 @ And these were the sons of Aholibamah, Esau's wife: Chief Jeush, Chief Jaalam, and Chief Korah. These were the chiefs who descended from Aholibamah, Esau's wife, the daughter of Anah.

nkjv@Genesis:36:19 @ These were the sons of Esau, who is Edom, and these were their chiefs.

nkjv@Genesis:36:20 @ These were the sons of Seir the Horite who inhabited the land: Lotan, Shobal, Zibeon, Anah,

nkjv@Genesis:36:21 @ Dishon, Ezer, and Dishan. These were the chiefs of the Horites, the sons of Seir, in the land of Edom.

nkjv@Genesis:36:22 @ And the sons of Lotan were Hori and Hemam. Lotan's sister was Timna.

nkjv@Genesis:36:23 @ These were the sons of Shobal: Alvan, Manahath, Ebal, Shepho, and Onam.

nkjv@Genesis:36:24 @ These were the sons of Zibeon: both Ajah and Anah. This was the Anah who found the water in the wilderness as he pastured the donkeys of his father Zibeon.

nkjv@Genesis:36:25 @ These were the children of Anah: Dishon and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah.

nkjv@Genesis:36:26 @ These were the sons of Dishon: Hemdan, Eshban, Ithran, and Cheran.

nkjv@Genesis:36:27 @ These were the sons of Ezer: Bilhan, Zaavan, and Akan.

nkjv@Genesis:36:28 @ These were the sons of Dishan: Uz and Aran.

nkjv@Genesis:36:30 @ Chief Dishon, Chief Ezer, and Chief Dishan. These were the chiefs of the Horites, according to their chiefs in the land of Seir.

nkjv@Genesis:36:31 @ Now these were the kings who reigned in the land of Edom before any king reigned over the children of Israel:

nkjv@Genesis:36:32 @ Bela the son of Beor reigned in Edom, and the name of his city was Dinhabah.

nkjv@Genesis:36:33 @ And when Bela died, Jobab the son of Zerah of Bozrah reigned in his place.

nkjv@Genesis:36:34 @ When Jobab died, Husham of the land of the Temanites reigned in his place.

nkjv@Genesis:36:35 @ And when Husham died, Hadad the son of Bedad, who attacked Midian in the field of Moab, reigned in his place. And the name of his city was Avith.

nkjv@Genesis:36:37 @ And when Samlah died, Saul of Rehoboth-by-the-River reigned in his place.

nkjv@Genesis:36:39 @ And when Baal-Hanan the son of Achbor died, Hadar reigned in his place; and the name of his city was Pau. His wife's name was Mehetabel, the daughter of Matred, the daughter of Mezahab.

nkjv@Genesis:36:40 @ And these were the names of the chiefs of Esau, according to their families and their places, by their names: Chief Timnah, Chief Alvah, Chief Jetheth,

nkjv@Genesis:36:43 @ Chief Magdiel, and Chief Iram. These were the chiefs of Edom, according to their dwelling places in the land of their possession. Esau was the father of the Edomites.

nkjv@Genesis:37:1 @ Now Jacob dwelt in the land where his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:37:2 @ This is the history of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brothers. And the lad was with the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives; and Joseph brought a bad report of them to his father.

nkjv@Genesis:37:4 @ But when his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they hated him and could not speak peaceably to him.

nkjv@Genesis:37:5 @ Now Joseph had a dream, and he told it to his brothers; and they hated him even more.

nkjv@Genesis:37:7 @ There we were, binding sheaves in the field. Then behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright; and indeed your sheaves stood all around and bowed down to my sheaf."

nkjv@Genesis:37:8 @ And his brothers said to him, "Shall you indeed reign over us? Or shall you indeed have dominion over us?" So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.

nkjv@Genesis:37:9 @ Then he dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers, and said, "Look, I have dreamed another dream. And this time, the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me."

nkjv@Genesis:37:10 @ So he told it to his father and his brothers; and his father rebuked him and said to him, "What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and your brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth before you?"

nkjv@Genesis:37:11 @ And his brothers envied him, but his father kept the matter in mind.

nkjv@Genesis:37:13 @ And Israel said to Joseph, "Are not your brothers feeding the flock in Shechem? Come, I will send you to them." So he said to him, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:37:14 @ Then he said to him, "Please go and see if it is well with your brothers and well with the flocks, and bring back word to me." So he sent him out of the Valley of Hebron, and he went to Shechem.

nkjv@Genesis:37:15 @ Now a certain man found him, and there he was, wandering in the field. And the man asked him, saying, "What are you seeking?"

nkjv@Genesis:37:17 @ And the man said, "They have departed from here, for I heard them say, "Let us go to Dothan."' So Joseph went after his brothers and found them in Dothan.

nkjv@Genesis:37:20 @ Come therefore, let us now kill him and cast him into some pit; and we shall say, "Some wild beast has devoured him.' We shall see what will become of his dreams!"

nkjv@Genesis:37:21 @ But Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands, and said, "Let us not kill him."

nkjv@Genesis:37:22 @ And Reuben said to them, "Shed no blood, but cast him into this pit which is in the wilderness, and do not lay a hand on him"--that he might deliver him out of their hands, and bring him back to his father.

nkjv@Genesis:37:24 @ Then they took him and cast him into a pit. And the pit was empty; there was no water in it.

nkjv@Genesis:37:25 @ And they sat down to eat a meal. Then they lifted their eyes and looked, and there was a company of Ishmaelites, coming from Gilead with their camels, bearing spices, balm, and myrrh, on their way to carry them down to Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:37:26 @ So Judah said to his brothers, "What profit is there if we kill our brother and conceal his blood?

nkjv@Genesis:37:27 @ Come and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hand be upon him, for he is our brother and our flesh." And his brothers listened.

nkjv@Genesis:37:28 @ Then Midianite traders passed by; so the brothers pulled Joseph up and lifted him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver. And they took Joseph to Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:37:29 @ Then Reuben returned to the pit, and indeed Joseph was not in the pit; and he tore his clothes.

nkjv@Genesis:37:30 @ And he returned to his brothers and said, "The lad is no more; and I, where shall I go?"

nkjv@Genesis:37:31 @ So they took Joseph's tunic, killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the tunic in the blood.

nkjv@Genesis:37:32 @ Then they sent the tunic of many colors, and they brought it to their father and said, "We have found this. Do you know whether it is your son's tunic or not?"

nkjv@Genesis:37:33 @ And he recognized it and said, "It is my son's tunic. A wild beast has devoured him. Without doubt Joseph is torn to pieces."

nkjv@Genesis:37:34 @ Then Jacob tore his clothes, put sackcloth on his waist, and mourned for his son many days.

nkjv@Genesis:37:35 @ And all his sons and all his daughters arose to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted, and he said, "For I shall go down into the grave to my son in mourning." Thus his father wept for him.

nkjv@Genesis:37:36 @ Now the Midianites had sold him in Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh and captain of the guard.

nkjv@Genesis:38:1 @ It came to pass at that time that Judah departed from his brothers, and visited a certain Adullamite whose name was Hirah.

nkjv@Genesis:38:2 @ And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua, and he married her and went in to her.

nkjv@Genesis:38:3 @ So she conceived and bore a son, and he called his name Er.

nkjv@Genesis:38:4 @ She conceived again and bore a son, and she called his name Onan.

nkjv@Genesis:38:5 @ And she conceived yet again and bore a son, and called his name Shelah. He was at Chezib when she bore him.

nkjv@Genesis:38:6 @ Then Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.

nkjv@Genesis:38:7 @ But Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD, and the LORD killed him.

nkjv@Genesis:38:8 @ And Judah said to Onan, "Go in to your brother's wife and marry her, and raise up an heir to your brother."

nkjv@Genesis:38:9 @ But Onan knew that the heir would not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in to his brother's wife, that he emitted on the ground, lest he should give an heir to his brother.

nkjv@Genesis:38:10 @ And the thing which he did displeased the LORD; therefore He killed him also.

nkjv@Genesis:38:11 @ Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, "Remain a widow in your father's house till my son Shelah is grown." For he said, "Lest he also die like his brothers." And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.

nkjv@Genesis:38:12 @ Now in the process of time the daughter of Shua, Judah's wife, died; and Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheepshearers at Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.

nkjv@Genesis:38:13 @ And it was told Tamar, saying, "Look, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep."

nkjv@Genesis:38:14 @ So she took off her widow's garments, covered herself with a veil and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place which was on the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given to him as a wife.

nkjv@Genesis:38:16 @ Then he turned to her by the way, and said, "Please let me come in to you"; for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. So she said, "What will you give me, that you may come in to me?"

nkjv@Genesis:38:17 @ And he said, "I will send a young goat from the flock." So she said, "Will you give me a pledge till you send it?

nkjv@Genesis:38:18 @ Then he said, "What pledge shall I give you?" So she said, "Your signet and cord, and your staff that is in your hand." Then he gave them to her, and went in to her, and she conceived by him.

nkjv@Genesis:38:19 @ So she arose and went away, and laid aside her veil and put on the garments of her widowhood.

nkjv@Genesis:38:20 @ And Judah sent the young goat by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive his pledge from the woman's hand, but he did not find her.

nkjv@Genesis:38:21 @ Then he asked the men of that place, saying, "Where is the harlot who was openly by the roadside?" And they said, "There was no harlot in this place."

nkjv@Genesis:38:22 @ So he returned to Judah and said, "I cannot find her. Also, the men of the place said there was no harlot in this place."

nkjv@Genesis:38:23 @ Then Judah said, "Let her take them for herself, lest we be shamed; for I sent this young goat and you have not found her."

nkjv@Genesis:38:24 @ And it came to pass, about three months after, that Judah was told, saying, "Tamar your daughter-in-law has played the harlot; furthermore she is with child by harlotry." So Judah said, "Bring her out and let her be burned!"

nkjv@Genesis:38:25 @ When she was brought out, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, "By the man to whom these belong, I am with child." And she said, "Please determine whose these are--the signet and cord, and staff."

nkjv@Genesis:38:26 @ So Judah acknowledged them and said, "She has been more righteous than I, because I did not give her to Shelah my son." And he never knew her again.

nkjv@Genesis:38:28 @ And so it was, when she was giving birth, that the one put out his hand; and the midwife took a scarlet thread and bound it on his hand, saying, "This one came out first."

nkjv@Genesis:38:29 @ Then it happened, as he drew back his hand, that his brother came out unexpectedly; and she said, "How did you break through? This breach be upon you!" Therefore his name was called Perez.

nkjv@Genesis:38:30 @ Afterward his brother came out who had the scarlet thread on his hand. And his name was called Zerah.

nkjv@Genesis:39:1 @ Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. And Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him down there.

nkjv@Genesis:39:2 @ The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.

nkjv@Genesis:39:3 @ And his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made all he did to prosper in his hand.

nkjv@Genesis:39:4 @ So Joseph found favor in his sight, and served him. Then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority.

nkjv@Genesis:39:5 @ So it was, from the time that he had made him overseer of his house and all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was on all that he had in the house and in the field.

nkjv@Genesis:39:6 @ Thus he left all that he had in Joseph's hand, and he did not know what he had except for the bread which he ate. Now Joseph was handsome in form and appearance.

nkjv@Genesis:39:7 @ And it came to pass after these things that his master's wife cast longing eyes on Joseph, and she said, "Lie with me."

nkjv@Genesis:39:8 @ But he refused and said to his master's wife, "Look, my master does not know what is with me in the house, and he has committed all that he has to my hand.

nkjv@Genesis:39:9 @ There is no one greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?"

nkjv@Genesis:39:11 @ But it happened about this time, when Joseph went into the house to do his work, and none of the men of the house was inside,

nkjv@Genesis:39:12 @ that she caught him by his garment, saying, "Lie with me." But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and ran outside.

nkjv@Genesis:39:13 @ And so it was, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and fled outside,

nkjv@Genesis:39:14 @ that she called to the men of her house and spoke to them, saying, "See, he has brought in to us a Hebrew to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice.

nkjv@Genesis:39:15 @ And it happened, when he heard that I lifted my voice and cried out, that he left his garment with me, and fled and went outside."

nkjv@Genesis:39:18 @ so it happened, as I lifted my voice and cried out, that he left his garment with me and fled outside."

nkjv@Genesis:39:20 @ Then Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners were confined. And he was there in the prison.

nkjv@Genesis:39:21 @ But the LORD was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.

nkjv@Genesis:39:22 @ And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners who were in the prison; whatever they did there, it was his doing.

nkjv@Genesis:39:23 @ The keeper of the prison did not look into anything that was under Joseph's authority, because the LORD was with him; and whatever he did, the LORD made it prosper.

nkjv@Genesis:40:1 @ It came to pass after these things that the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:40:2 @ And Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief butler and the chief baker.

nkjv@Genesis:40:4 @ And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them; so they were in custody for a while.

nkjv@Genesis:40:5 @ Then the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison, had a dream, both of them, each man's dream in one night and each man's dream with its own interpretation.

nkjv@Genesis:40:6 @ And Joseph came in to them in the morning and looked at them, and saw that they were sad.

nkjv@Genesis:40:8 @ And they said to him, "We each have had a dream, and there is no interpreter of it." So Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell them to me, please."

nkjv@Genesis:40:9 @ Then the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "Behold, in my dream a vine was before me,

nkjv@Genesis:40:10 @ and in the vine were three branches; it was as though it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and its clusters brought forth ripe grapes.

nkjv@Genesis:40:11 @ Then Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand."

nkjv@Genesis:40:12 @ And Joseph said to him, "This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days.

nkjv@Genesis:40:13 @ Now within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your place, and you will put Pharaoh's cup in his hand according to the former manner, when you were his butler.

nkjv@Genesis:40:14 @ But remember me when it is well with you, and please show kindness to me; make mention of me to Pharaoh, and get me out of this house.

nkjv@Genesis:40:15 @ For indeed I was stolen away from the land of the Hebrews; and also I have done nothing here that they should put me into the dungeon."

nkjv@Genesis:40:16 @ When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, "I also was in my dream, and there were three white baskets on my head.

nkjv@Genesis:40:17 @ In the uppermost basket were all kinds of baked goods for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head."

nkjv@Genesis:40:18 @ So Joseph answered and said, "This is the interpretation of it: The three baskets are three days.

nkjv@Genesis:40:19 @ Within three days Pharaoh will lift off your head from you and hang you on a tree; and the birds will eat your flesh from you."

nkjv@Genesis:40:20 @ Now it came to pass on the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast for all his servants; and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants.

nkjv@Genesis:40:21 @ Then he restored the chief butler to his butlership again, and he placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand.

nkjv@Genesis:41:1 @ Then it came to pass, at the end of two full years, that Pharaoh had a dream; and behold, he stood by the river.

nkjv@Genesis:41:2 @ Suddenly there came up out of the river seven cows, fine looking and fat; and they fed in the meadow.

nkjv@Genesis:41:3 @ Then behold, seven other cows came up after them out of the river, ugly and gaunt, and stood by the other cows on the bank of the river.

nkjv@Genesis:41:4 @ And the ugly and gaunt cows ate up the seven fine looking and fat cows. So Pharaoh awoke.

nkjv@Genesis:41:5 @ He slept and dreamed a second time; and suddenly seven heads of grain came up on one stalk, plump and good.

nkjv@Genesis:41:7 @ And the seven thin heads devoured the seven plump and full heads. So Pharaoh awoke, and indeed, it was a dream.

nkjv@Genesis:41:8 @ Now it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled, and he sent and called for all the magicians of Egypt and all its wise men. And Pharaoh told them his dreams, but there was no one who could interpret them for Pharaoh.

nkjv@Genesis:41:10 @ When Pharaoh was angry with his servants, and put me in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, both me and the chief baker,

nkjv@Genesis:41:11 @ we each had a dream in one night, he and I. Each of us dreamed according to the interpretation of his own dream.

nkjv@Genesis:41:12 @ Now there was a young Hebrew man with us there, a servant of the captain of the guard. And we told him, and he interpreted our dreams for us; to each man he interpreted according to his own dream.

nkjv@Genesis:41:13 @ And it came to pass, just as he interpreted for us, so it happened. He restored me to my office, and he hanged him."

nkjv@Genesis:41:14 @ Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph, and they brought him quickly out of the dungeon; and he shaved, changed his clothing, and came to Pharaoh.

nkjv@Genesis:41:15 @ And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "I have had a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it. But I have heard it said of you that you can understand a dream, to interpret it."

nkjv@Genesis:41:18 @ Suddenly seven cows came up out of the river, fine looking and fat; and they fed in the meadow.

nkjv@Genesis:41:19 @ Then behold, seven other cows came up after them, poor and very ugly and gaunt, such ugliness as I have never seen in all the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:41:20 @ And the gaunt and ugly cows ate up the first seven, the fat cows.

nkjv@Genesis:41:22 @ Also I saw in my dream, and suddenly seven heads came up on one stalk, full and good.

nkjv@Genesis:41:23 @ Then behold, seven heads, withered, thin, and blighted by the east wind, sprang up after them.

nkjv@Genesis:41:24 @ And the thin heads devoured the seven good heads. So I told this to the magicians, but there was no one who could explain it to me."

nkjv@Genesis:41:26 @ The seven good cows are seven years, and the seven good heads are seven years; the dreams are one.

nkjv@Genesis:41:27 @ And the seven thin and ugly cows which came up after them are seven years, and the seven empty heads blighted by the east wind are seven years of famine.

nkjv@Genesis:41:29 @ Indeed seven years of great plenty will come throughout all the land of Egypt;

nkjv@Genesis:41:30 @ but after them seven years of famine will arise, and all the plenty will be forgotten in the land of Egypt; and the famine will deplete the land.

nkjv@Genesis:41:31 @ So the plenty will not be known in the land because of the famine following, for it will be very severe.

nkjv@Genesis:41:32 @ And the dream was repeated to Pharaoh twice because the thing is established by God, and God will shortly bring it to pass.

nkjv@Genesis:41:33 @ "Now therefore, let Pharaoh select a discerning and wise man, and set him over the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:41:34 @ Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over the land, to collect one-fifth of the produce of the land of Egypt in the seven plentiful years.

nkjv@Genesis:41:35 @ And let them gather all the food of those good years that are coming, and store up grain under the authority of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities.

nkjv@Genesis:41:36 @ Then that food shall be as a reserve for the land for the seven years of famine which shall be in the land of Egypt, that the land may not perish during the famine."

nkjv@Genesis:41:37 @ So the advice was good in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of all his servants.

nkjv@Genesis:41:38 @ And Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find such a one as this, a man in whom is the Spirit of God?"

nkjv@Genesis:41:39 @ Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Inasmuch as God has shown you all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you.

nkjv@Genesis:41:40 @ You shall be over my house, and all my people shall be ruled according to your word; only in regard to the throne will I be greater than you."

nkjv@Genesis:41:41 @ And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt."

nkjv@Genesis:41:42 @ Then Pharaoh took his signet ring off his hand and put it on Joseph's hand; and he clothed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain around his neck.

nkjv@Genesis:41:43 @ And he had him ride in the second chariot which he had; and they cried out before him, "Bow the knee!" So he set him over all the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:41:44 @ Pharaoh also said to Joseph, "I am Pharaoh, and without your consent no man may lift his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt."

nkjv@Genesis:41:45 @ And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnath-Paaneah. And he gave him as a wife Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On. So Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:41:46 @ Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:41:48 @ So he gathered up all the food of the seven years which were in the land of Egypt, and laid up the food in the cities; he laid up in every city the food of the fields which surrounded them.

nkjv@Genesis:41:49 @ Joseph gathered very much grain, as the sand of the sea, until he stopped counting, for it was immeasurable.

nkjv@Genesis:41:50 @ And to Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On, bore to him.

nkjv@Genesis:41:51 @ Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: "For God has made me forget all my toil and all my father's house."

nkjv@Genesis:41:52 @ And the name of the second he called Ephraim: "For God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction."

nkjv@Genesis:41:53 @ Then the seven years of plenty which were in the land of Egypt ended,

nkjv@Genesis:41:54 @ and the seven years of famine began to come, as Joseph had said. The famine was in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.

nkjv@Genesis:41:55 @ So when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. Then Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, "Go to Joseph; whatever he says to you, do."

nkjv@Genesis:41:56 @ The famine was over all the face of the earth, and Joseph opened all the storehouses and sold to the Egyptians. And the famine became severe in the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:41:57 @ So all countries came to Joseph in Egypt to buy grain, because the famine was severe in all lands.

nkjv@Genesis:42:2 @ And he said, "Indeed I have heard that there is grain in Egypt; go down to that place and buy for us there, that we may live and not die."

nkjv@Genesis:42:5 @ And the sons of Israel went to buy grain among those who journeyed, for the famine was in the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:42:6 @ Now Joseph was governor over the land; and it was he who sold to all the people of the land. And Joseph's brothers came and bowed down before him with their faces to the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:42:7 @ Joseph saw his brothers and recognized them, but he acted as a stranger to them and spoke roughly to them. Then he said to them, "Where do you come from?" And they said, "From the land of Canaan to buy food."

nkjv@Genesis:42:9 @ Then Joseph remembered the dreams which he had dreamed about them, and said to them, "You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land!"

nkjv@Genesis:42:10 @ And they said to him, "No, my lord, but your servants have come to buy food.

nkjv@Genesis:42:12 @ But he said to them, "No, but you have come to see the nakedness of the land."

nkjv@Genesis:42:13 @ And they said, "Your servants are twelve brothers, the sons of one man in the land of Canaan; and in fact, the youngest is with our father today, and one is no more."

nkjv@Genesis:42:16 @ Send one of you, and let him bring your brother; and you shall be kept in prison, that your words may be tested to see whether there is any truth in you; or else, by the life of Pharaoh, surely you are spies!"

nkjv@Genesis:42:18 @ Then Joseph said to them the third day, "Do this and live, for I fear God:

nkjv@Genesis:42:19 @ If you are honest men, let one of your brothers be confined to your prison house; but you, go and carry grain for the famine of your houses.

nkjv@Genesis:42:20 @ And bring your youngest brother to me; so your words will be verified, and you shall not die." And they did so.

nkjv@Genesis:42:21 @ Then they said to one another, "We are truly guilty concerning our brother, for we saw the anguish of his soul when he pleaded with us, and we would not hear; therefore this distress has come upon us."

nkjv@Genesis:42:22 @ And Reuben answered them, saying, "Did I not speak to you, saying, "Do not sin against the boy'; and you would not listen? Therefore behold, his blood is now required of us."

nkjv@Genesis:42:24 @ And he turned himself away from them and wept. Then he returned to them again, and talked with them. And he took Simeon from them and bound him before their eyes.

nkjv@Genesis:42:25 @ Then Joseph gave a command to fill their sacks with grain, to restore every man's money to his sack, and to give them provisions for the journey. Thus he did for them.

nkjv@Genesis:42:26 @ So they loaded their donkeys with the grain and departed from there.

nkjv@Genesis:42:27 @ But as one of them opened his sack to give his donkey feed at the encampment, he saw his money; and there it was, in the mouth of his sack.

nkjv@Genesis:42:28 @ So he said to his brothers, "My money has been restored, and there it is, in my sack!" Then their hearts failed them and they were afraid, saying to one another, "What is this that God has done to us?"

nkjv@Genesis:42:29 @ Then they went to Jacob their father in the land of Canaan and told him all that had happened to them, saying:

nkjv@Genesis:42:30 @ "The man who is lord of the land spoke roughly to us, and took us for spies of the country.

nkjv@Genesis:42:32 @ We are twelve brothers, sons of our father; one is no more, and the youngest is with our father this day in the land of Canaan.'

nkjv@Genesis:42:33 @ Then the man, the lord of the country, said to us, "By this I will know that you are honest men: Leave one of your brothers here with me, take food for the famine of your households, and be gone.

nkjv@Genesis:42:34 @ And bring your youngest brother to me; so I shall know that you are not spies, but that you are honest men. I will grant your brother to you, and you may trade in the land."'

nkjv@Genesis:42:35 @ Then it happened as they emptied their sacks, that surprisingly each man's bundle of money was in his sack; and when they and their father saw the bundles of money, they were afraid.

nkjv@Genesis:42:36 @ And Jacob their father said to them, "You have bereaved me: Joseph is no more, Simeon is no more, and you want to take Benjamin. All these things are against me."

nkjv@Genesis:42:37 @ Then Reuben spoke to his father, saying, "Kill my two sons if I do not bring him back to you; put him in my hands, and I will bring him back to you."

nkjv@Genesis:42:38 @ But he said, "My son shall not go down with you, for his brother is dead, and he is left alone. If any calamity should befall him along the way in which you go, then you would bring down my gray hair with sorrow to the grave."

nkjv@Genesis:43:1 @ Now the famine was severe in the land.

nkjv@Genesis:43:2 @ And it came to pass, when they had eaten up the grain which they had brought from Egypt, that their father said to them, "Go back, buy us a little food."

nkjv@Genesis:43:4 @ If you send our brother with us, we will go down and buy you food.

nkjv@Genesis:43:6 @ And Israel said, "Why did you deal so wrongfully with me as to tell the man whether you had still another brother?"

nkjv@Genesis:43:7 @ But they said, "The man asked us pointedly about ourselves and our family, saying, "Is your father still alive? Have you another brother?' And we told him according to these words. Could we possibly have known that he would say, "Bring your brother down'?"

nkjv@Genesis:43:8 @ Then Judah said to Israel his father, "Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go, that we may live and not die, both we and you and also our little ones.

nkjv@Genesis:43:9 @ I myself will be surety for him; from my hand you shall require him. If I do not bring him back to you and set him before you, then let me bear the blame forever.

nkjv@Genesis:43:11 @ And their father Israel said to them, "If it must be so, then do this: Take some of the best fruits of the land in your vessels and carry down a present for the man--a little balm and a little honey, spices and myrrh, pistachio nuts and almonds.

nkjv@Genesis:43:12 @ Take double money in your hand, and take back in your hand the money that was returned in the mouth of your sacks; perhaps it was an oversight.

nkjv@Genesis:43:13 @ Take your brother also, and arise, go back to the man.

nkjv@Genesis:43:14 @ And may God Almighty give you mercy before the man, that he may release your other brother and Benjamin. If I am bereaved, I am bereaved!"

nkjv@Genesis:43:15 @ So the men took that present and Benjamin, and they took double money in their hand, and arose and went down to Egypt; and they stood before Joseph.

nkjv@Genesis:43:16 @ When Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the steward of his house, "Take these men to my home, and slaughter an animal and make ready; for these men will dine with me at noon."

nkjv@Genesis:43:17 @ Then the man did as Joseph ordered, and the man brought the men into Joseph's house.

nkjv@Genesis:43:18 @ Now the men were afraid because they were brought into Joseph's house; and they said, "It is because of the money, which was returned in our sacks the first time, that we are brought in, so that he may make a case against us and seize us, to take us as slaves with our donkeys."

nkjv@Genesis:43:20 @ and said, "O sir, we indeed came down the first time to buy food;

nkjv@Genesis:43:21 @ but it happened, when we came to the encampment, that we opened our sacks, and there, each man's money was in the mouth of his sack, our money in full weight; so we have brought it back in our hand.

nkjv@Genesis:43:22 @ And we have brought down other money in our hands to buy food. We do not know who put our money in our sacks."

nkjv@Genesis:43:23 @ But he said, "Peace be with you, do not be afraid. Your God and the God of your father has given you treasure in your sacks; I had your money." Then he brought Simeon out to them.

nkjv@Genesis:43:24 @ So the man brought the men into Joseph's house and gave them water, and they washed their feet; and he gave their donkeys feed.

nkjv@Genesis:43:26 @ And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed down before him to the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:43:27 @ Then he asked them about their well-being, and said, "Is your father well, the old man of whom you spoke? Is he still alive?"

nkjv@Genesis:43:28 @ And they answered, "Your servant our father is in good health; he is still alive." And they bowed their heads down and prostrated themselves.

nkjv@Genesis:43:29 @ Then he lifted his eyes and saw his brother Benjamin, his mother's son, and said, "Is this your younger brother of whom you spoke to me?" And he said, "God be gracious to you, my son."

nkjv@Genesis:43:30 @ Now his heart yearned for his brother; so Joseph made haste and sought somewhere to weep. And he went into his chamber and wept there.

nkjv@Genesis:43:31 @ Then he washed his face and came out; and he restrained himself, and said, "Serve the bread."

nkjv@Genesis:43:32 @ So they set him a place by himself, and them by themselves, and the Egyptians who ate with him by themselves; because the Egyptians could not eat food with the Hebrews, for that is an abomination to the Egyptians.

nkjv@Genesis:43:33 @ And they sat before him, the firstborn according to his birthright and the youngest according to his youth; and the men looked in astonishment at one another.

nkjv@Genesis:43:34 @ Then he took servings to them from before him, but Benjamin's serving was five times as much as any of theirs. So they drank and were merry with him.

nkjv@Genesis:44:1 @ And he commanded the steward of his house, saying, "Fill the men's sacks with food, as much as they can carry, and put each man's money in the mouth of his sack.

nkjv@Genesis:44:2 @ Also put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, and his grain money." So he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.

nkjv@Genesis:44:3 @ As soon as the morning dawned, the men were sent away, they and their donkeys.

nkjv@Genesis:44:4 @ When they had gone out of the city, and were not yet far off, Joseph said to his steward, "Get up, follow the men; and when you overtake them, say to them, "Why have you repaid evil for good?

nkjv@Genesis:44:5 @ Is not this the one from which my lord drinks, and with which he indeed practices divination? You have done evil in so doing."'

nkjv@Genesis:44:6 @ So he overtook them, and he spoke to them these same words.

nkjv@Genesis:44:7 @ And they said to him, "Why does my lord say these words? Far be it from us that your servants should do such a thing.

nkjv@Genesis:44:8 @ Look, we brought back to you from the land of Canaan the money which we found in the mouth of our sacks. How then could we steal silver or gold from your lord's house?

nkjv@Genesis:44:9 @ With whomever of your servants it is found, let him die, and we also will be my lord's slaves."

nkjv@Genesis:44:10 @ And he said, "Now also let it be according to your words; he with whom it is found shall be my slave, and you shall be blameless."

nkjv@Genesis:44:11 @ Then each man speedily let down his sack to the ground, and each opened his sack.

nkjv@Genesis:44:12 @ So he searched. He began with the oldest and left off with the youngest; and the cup was found in Benjamin's sack.

nkjv@Genesis:44:13 @ Then they tore their clothes, and each man loaded his donkey and returned to the city.

nkjv@Genesis:44:14 @ So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, and he was still there; and they fell before him on the ground.

nkjv@Genesis:44:15 @ And Joseph said to them, "What deed is this you have done? Did you not know that such a man as I can certainly practice divination?"

nkjv@Genesis:44:16 @ Then Judah said, "What shall we say to my lord? What shall we speak? Or how shall we clear ourselves? God has found out the iniquity of your servants; here we are, my lord's slaves, both we and he also with whom the cup was found."

nkjv@Genesis:44:17 @ But he said, "Far be it from me that I should do so; the man in whose hand the cup was found, he shall be my slave. And as for you, go up in peace to your father."

nkjv@Genesis:44:18 @ Then Judah came near to him and said: "O my lord, please let your servant speak a word in my lord's hearing, and do not let your anger burn against your servant; for you are even like Pharaoh.

nkjv@Genesis:44:20 @ And we said to my lord, "We have a father, an old man, and a child of his old age, who is young; his brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother's children, and his father loves him.'

nkjv@Genesis:44:22 @ And we said to my lord, "The lad cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, his father would die.'

nkjv@Genesis:44:25 @ And our father said, "Go back and buy us a little food.'

nkjv@Genesis:44:28 @ and the one went out from me, and I said, "Surely he is torn to pieces"; and I have not seen him since.

nkjv@Genesis:44:29 @ But if you take this one also from me, and calamity befalls him, you shall bring down my gray hair with sorrow to the grave.'

nkjv@Genesis:44:30 @ "Now therefore, when I come to your servant my father, and the lad is not with us, since his life is bound up in the lad's life,

nkjv@Genesis:44:33 @ Now therefore, please let your servant remain instead of the lad as a slave to my lord, and let the lad go up with his brothers.

nkjv@Genesis:45:1 @ Then Joseph could not restrain himself before all those who stood by him, and he cried out, "Make everyone go out from me!" So no one stood with him while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.

nkjv@Genesis:45:2 @ And he wept aloud, and the Egyptians and the house of Pharaoh heard it.

nkjv@Genesis:45:4 @ And Joseph said to his brothers, "Please come near to me." So they came near. Then he said: "I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:45:6 @ For these two years the famine has been in the land, and there are still five years in which there will be neither plowing nor harvesting.

nkjv@Genesis:45:7 @ And God sent me before you to preserve a posterity for you in the earth, and to save your lives by a great deliverance.

nkjv@Genesis:45:8 @ So now it was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a father to Pharaoh, and lord of all his house, and a ruler throughout all the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:45:9 @ "Hurry and go up to my father, and say to him, "Thus says your son Joseph: "God has made me lord of all Egypt; come down to me, do not tarry.

nkjv@Genesis:45:10 @ You shall dwell in the land of Goshen, and you shall be near to me, you and your children, your children's children, your flocks and your herds, and all that you have.

nkjv@Genesis:45:11 @ There I will provide for you, lest you and your household, and all that you have, come to poverty; for there are still five years of famine."'

nkjv@Genesis:45:12 @ "And behold, your eyes and the eyes of my brother Benjamin see that it is my mouth that speaks to you.

nkjv@Genesis:45:13 @ So you shall tell my father of all my glory in Egypt, and of all that you have seen; and you shall hurry and bring my father down here."

nkjv@Genesis:45:14 @ Then he fell on his brother Benjamin's neck and wept, and Benjamin wept on his neck.

nkjv@Genesis:45:15 @ Moreover he kissed all his brothers and wept over them, and after that his brothers talked with him.

nkjv@Genesis:45:16 @ Now the report of it was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, "Joseph's brothers have come." So it pleased Pharaoh and his servants well.

nkjv@Genesis:45:17 @ And Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Say to your brothers, "Do this: Load your animals and depart; go to the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Genesis:45:18 @ Bring your father and your households and come to me; I will give you the best of the land of Egypt, and you will eat the fat of the land.

nkjv@Genesis:45:19 @ Now you are commanded--do this: Take carts out of the land of Egypt for your little ones and your wives; bring your father and come.

nkjv@Genesis:45:20 @ Also do not be concerned about your goods, for the best of all the land of Egypt is yours."'

nkjv@Genesis:45:21 @ Then the sons of Israel did so; and Joseph gave them carts, according to the command of Pharaoh, and he gave them provisions for the journey.

nkjv@Genesis:45:22 @ He gave to all of them, to each man, changes of garments; but to Benjamin he gave three hundred pieces of silver and five changes of garments.

nkjv@Genesis:45:23 @ And he sent to his father these things: ten donkeys loaded with the good things of Egypt, and ten female donkeys loaded with grain, bread, and food for his father for the journey.

nkjv@Genesis:45:24 @ So he sent his brothers away, and they departed; and he said to them, "See that you do not become troubled along the way."

nkjv@Genesis:45:25 @ Then they went up out of Egypt, and came to the land of Canaan to Jacob their father.

nkjv@Genesis:45:26 @ And they told him, saying, "Joseph is still alive, and he is governor over all the land of Egypt." And Jacob's heart stood still, because he did not believe them.

nkjv@Genesis:45:27 @ But when they told him all the words which Joseph had said to them, and when he saw the carts which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived.

nkjv@Genesis:45:28 @ Then Israel said, "It is enough. Joseph my son is still alive. I will go and see him before I die."

nkjv@Genesis:46:1 @ So Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.

nkjv@Genesis:46:2 @ Then God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob!" And he said, "Here I am."

nkjv@Genesis:46:4 @ I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also surely bring you up again; and Joseph will put his hand on your eyes."

nkjv@Genesis:46:5 @ Then Jacob arose from Beersheba; and the sons of Israel carried their father Jacob, their little ones, and their wives, in the carts which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.

nkjv@Genesis:46:6 @ So they took their livestock and their goods, which they had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went to Egypt, Jacob and all his descendants with him.

nkjv@Genesis:46:7 @ His sons and his sons' sons, his daughters and his sons' daughters, and all his descendants he brought with him to Egypt.

nkjv@Genesis:46:8 @ Now these were the names of the children of Israel, Jacob and his sons, who went to Egypt: Reuben was Jacob's firstborn.

nkjv@Genesis:46:9 @ The sons of Reuben were Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.

nkjv@Genesis:46:10 @ The sons of Simeon were Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman.

nkjv@Genesis:46:11 @ The sons of Levi were Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.

nkjv@Genesis:46:12 @ The sons of Judah were Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan). The sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.

nkjv@Genesis:46:13 @ The sons of Issachar were Tola, Puvah, Job, and Shimron.

nkjv@Genesis:46:14 @ The sons of Zebulun were Sered, Elon, and Jahleel.

nkjv@Genesis:46:15 @ These were the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Padan Aram, with his daughter Dinah. All the persons, his sons and his daughters, were thirty-three.

nkjv@Genesis:46:16 @ The sons of Gad were Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli.

nkjv@Genesis:46:17 @ The sons of Asher were Jimnah, Ishuah, Isui, Beriah, and Serah, their sister. And the sons of Beriah were Heber and Malchiel.

nkjv@Genesis:46:18 @ These were the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter; and these she bore to Jacob: sixteen persons.

nkjv@Genesis:46:19 @ The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife, were Joseph and Benjamin.

nkjv@Genesis:46:20 @ And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On, bore to him.

nkjv@Genesis:46:21 @ The sons of Benjamin were Belah, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard.

nkjv@Genesis:46:24 @ The sons of Naphtali were Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem.

nkjv@Genesis:46:25 @ These were the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, and she bore these to Jacob: seven persons in all.

nkjv@Genesis:46:27 @ And the sons of Joseph who were born to him in Egypt were two persons. All the persons of the house of Jacob who went to Egypt were seventy.

nkjv@Genesis:46:28 @ Then he sent Judah before him to Joseph, to point out before him the way to Goshen. And they came to the land of Goshen.

nkjv@Genesis:46:29 @ So Joseph made ready his chariot and went up to Goshen to meet his father Israel; and he presented himself to him, and fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while.

nkjv@Genesis:46:30 @ And Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die, since I have seen your face, because you are still alive."

nkjv@Genesis:46:31 @ Then Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, "I will go up and tell Pharaoh, and say to him, "My brothers and those of my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.

nkjv@Genesis:46:32 @ And the men are shepherds, for their occupation has been to feed livestock; and they have brought their flocks, their herds, and all that they have.'

nkjv@Genesis:46:33 @ So it shall be, when Pharaoh calls you and says, "What is your occupation?'

nkjv@Genesis:46:34 @ that you shall say, "Your servants' occupation has been with livestock from our youth even till now, both we and also our fathers,' that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians."

nkjv@Genesis:47:1 @ Then Joseph went and told Pharaoh, and said, "My father and my brothers, their flocks and their herds and all that they possess, have come from the land of Canaan; and indeed they are in the land of Goshen."

nkjv@Genesis:47:2 @ And he took five men from among his brothers and presented them to Pharaoh.

nkjv@Genesis:47:3 @ Then Pharaoh said to his brothers, "What is your occupation?" And they said to Pharaoh, "Your servants are shepherds, both we and also our fathers."

nkjv@Genesis:47:4 @ And they said to Pharaoh, "We have come to dwell in the land, because your servants have no pasture for their flocks, for the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen."

nkjv@Genesis:47:5 @ Then Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, "Your father and your brothers have come to you.

nkjv@Genesis:47:6 @ The land of Egypt is before you. Have your father and brothers dwell in the best of the land; let them dwell in the land of Goshen. And if you know any competent men among them, then make them chief herdsmen over my livestock."

nkjv@Genesis:47:7 @ Then Joseph brought in his father Jacob and set him before Pharaoh; and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

nkjv@Genesis:47:9 @ And Jacob said to Pharaoh, "The days of the years of my pilgrimage are one hundred and thirty years; few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage."

nkjv@Genesis:47:10 @ So Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from before Pharaoh.

nkjv@Genesis:47:11 @ And Joseph situated his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

nkjv@Genesis:47:12 @ Then Joseph provided his father, his brothers, and all his father's household with bread, according to the number in their families.

nkjv@Genesis:47:13 @ Now there was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan languished because of the famine.

nkjv@Genesis:47:14 @ And Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought; and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.

nkjv@Genesis:47:15 @ So when the money failed in the land of Egypt and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph and said, "Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For the money has failed."

nkjv@Genesis:47:16 @ Then Joseph said, "Give your livestock, and I will give you bread for your livestock, if the money is gone."

nkjv@Genesis:47:17 @ So they brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, the flocks, the cattle of the herds, and for the donkeys. Thus he fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock that year.

nkjv@Genesis:47:18 @ When that year had ended, they came to him the next year and said to him, "We will not hide from my lord that our money is gone; my lord also has our herds of livestock. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord but our bodies and our lands.

nkjv@Genesis:47:19 @ Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants of Pharaoh; give us seed, that we may live and not die, that the land may not be desolate."

nkjv@Genesis:47:20 @ Then Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe upon them. So the land became Pharaoh's.

nkjv@Genesis:47:21 @ And as for the people, he moved them into the cities, from one end of the borders of Egypt to the other end.

nkjv@Genesis:47:22 @ Only the land of the priests he did not buy; for the priests had rations allotted to them by Pharaoh, and they ate their rations which Pharaoh gave them; therefore they did not sell their lands.

nkjv@Genesis:47:23 @ Then Joseph said to the people, "Indeed I have bought you and your land this day for Pharaoh. Look, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.

nkjv@Genesis:47:24 @ And it shall come to pass in the harvest that you shall give one-fifth to Pharaoh. Four-fifths shall be your own, as seed for the field and for your food, for those of your households and as food for your little ones."

nkjv@Genesis:47:25 @ So they said, "You have saved our lives; let us find favor in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants."

nkjv@Genesis:47:26 @ And Joseph made it a law over the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have one-fifth, except for the land of the priests only, which did not become Pharaoh's.

nkjv@Genesis:47:27 @ So Israel dwelt in the land of Egypt, in the country of Goshen; and they had possessions there and grew and multiplied exceedingly.

nkjv@Genesis:47:28 @ And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. So the length of Jacob's life was one hundred and forty-seven years.

nkjv@Genesis:47:29 @ When the time drew near that Israel must die, he called his son Joseph and said to him, "Now if I have found favor in your sight, please put your hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me. Please do not bury me in Egypt,

nkjv@Genesis:47:30 @ but let me lie with my fathers; you shall carry me out of Egypt and bury me in their burial place." And he said, "I will do as you have said."

nkjv@Genesis:47:31 @ Then he said, "Swear to me." And he swore to him. So Israel bowed himself on the head of the bed.

nkjv@Genesis:48:1 @ Now it came to pass after these things that Joseph was told, "Indeed your father is sick"; and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.

nkjv@Genesis:48:2 @ And Jacob was told, "Look, your son Joseph is coming to you"; and Israel strengthened himself and sat up on the bed.

nkjv@Genesis:48:3 @ Then Jacob said to Joseph: "God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan and blessed me,

nkjv@Genesis:48:4 @ and said to me, "Behold, I will make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will make of you a multitude of people, and give this land to your descendants after you as an everlasting possession.'

nkjv@Genesis:48:5 @ And now your two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.

nkjv@Genesis:48:7 @ But as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died beside me in the land of Canaan on the way, when there was but a little distance to go to Ephrath; and I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem)."

nkjv@Genesis:48:8 @ Then Israel saw Joseph's sons, and said, "Who are these?"

nkjv@Genesis:48:9 @ Joseph said to his father, "They are my sons, whom God has given me in this place." And he said, "Please bring them to me, and I will bless them."

nkjv@Genesis:48:10 @ Now the eyes of Israel were dim with age, so that he could not see. Then Joseph brought them near him, and he kissed them and embraced them.

nkjv@Genesis:48:11 @ And Israel said to Joseph, "I had not thought to see your face; but in fact, God has also shown me your offspring!"

nkjv@Genesis:48:12 @ So Joseph brought them from beside his knees, and he bowed down with his face to the earth.

nkjv@Genesis:48:13 @ And Joseph took them both, Ephraim with his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh with his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near him.

nkjv@Genesis:48:14 @ Then Israel stretched out his right hand and laid it on Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh's head, guiding his hands knowingly, for Manasseh was the firstborn.

nkjv@Genesis:48:15 @ And he blessed Joseph, and said: "God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, The God who has fed me all my life long to this day,

nkjv@Genesis:48:16 @ The Angel who has redeemed me from all evil, Bless the lads; Let my name be named upon them, And the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; And let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth."

nkjv@Genesis:48:17 @ Now when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him; so he took hold of his father's hand to remove it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.

nkjv@Genesis:48:18 @ And Joseph said to his father, "Not so, my father, for this one is the firstborn; put your right hand on his head."

nkjv@Genesis:48:19 @ But his father refused and said, "I know, my son, I know. He also shall become a people, and he also shall be great; but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his descendants shall become a multitude of nations."

nkjv@Genesis:48:20 @ So he blessed them that day, saying, "By you Israel will bless, saying, "May God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh!"' And thus he set Ephraim before Manasseh.

nkjv@Genesis:48:21 @ Then Israel said to Joseph, "Behold, I am dying, but God will be with you and bring you back to the land of your fathers.

nkjv@Genesis:48:22 @ Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took from the hand of the Amorite with my sword and my bow."

nkjv@Genesis:49:28 @ All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father spoke to them. And he blessed them; he blessed each one according to his own blessing.

nkjv@Genesis:49:29 @ Then he charged them and said to them: "I am to be gathered to my people; bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,

nkjv@Genesis:49:30 @ in the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite as a possession for a burial place.

nkjv@Genesis:49:32 @ The field and the cave that is there were purchased from the sons of Heth."

nkjv@Genesis:49:33 @ And when Jacob had finished commanding his sons, he drew his feet up into the bed and breathed his last, and was gathered to his people.

nkjv@Genesis:50:1 @ Then Joseph fell on his father's face and wept over him, and kissed him.

nkjv@Genesis:50:2 @ And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. So the physicians embalmed Israel.

nkjv@Genesis:50:3 @ Forty days were required for him, for such are the days required for those who are embalmed; and the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days.

nkjv@Genesis:50:5 @ "My father made me swear, saying, "Behold, I am dying; in my grave which I dug for myself in the land of Canaan, there you shall bury me." Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will come back."'

nkjv@Genesis:50:6 @ And Pharaoh said, "Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear."

nkjv@Genesis:50:7 @ So Joseph went up to bury his father; and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,

nkjv@Genesis:50:8 @ as well as all the house of Joseph, his brothers, and his father's house. Only their little ones, their flocks, and their herds they left in the land of Goshen.

nkjv@Genesis:50:9 @ And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen, and it was a very great gathering.

nkjv@Genesis:50:10 @ Then they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is beyond the Jordan, and they mourned there with a great and very solemn lamentation. He observed seven days of mourning for his father.

nkjv@Genesis:50:11 @ And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning at the threshing floor of Atad, they said, "This is a deep mourning of the Egyptians." Therefore its name was called Abel Mizraim, which is beyond the Jordan.

nkjv@Genesis:50:12 @ So his sons did for him just as he had commanded them.

nkjv@Genesis:50:13 @ For his sons carried him to the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, before Mamre, which Abraham bought with the field from Ephron the Hittite as property for a burial place.

nkjv@Genesis:50:14 @ And after he had buried his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, he and his brothers and all who went up with him to bury his father.

nkjv@Genesis:50:15 @ When Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they said, "Perhaps Joseph will hate us, and may actually repay us for all the evil which we did to him."

nkjv@Genesis:50:16 @ So they sent messengers to Joseph, saying, "Before your father died he commanded, saying,

nkjv@Genesis:50:17 @ "Thus you shall say to Joseph: "I beg you, please forgive the trespass of your brothers and their sin; for they did evil to you."' Now, please, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of your father." And Joseph wept when they spoke to him.

nkjv@Genesis:50:18 @ Then his brothers also went and fell down before his face, and they said, "Behold, we are your servants."

nkjv@Genesis:50:21 @ Now therefore, do not be afraid; I will provide for you and your little ones." And he comforted them and spoke kindly to them.

nkjv@Genesis:50:22 @ So Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he and his father's household. And Joseph lived one hundred and ten years.

nkjv@Genesis:50:24 @ And Joseph said to his brethren, "I am dying; but God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land to the land of which He swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob."

nkjv@Genesis:50:25 @ Then Joseph took an oath from the children of Israel, saying, "God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here."

nkjv@Genesis:50:26 @ So Joseph died, being one hundred and ten years old; and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:1:1 @ Now these are the names of the children of Israel who came to Egypt; each man and his household came with Jacob:

nkjv@Exodus:1:2 @ Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah;

nkjv@Exodus:1:3 @ Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin;

nkjv@Exodus:1:4 @ Dan, Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.

nkjv@Exodus:1:6 @ And Joseph died, all his brothers, and all that generation.

nkjv@Exodus:1:7 @ But the children of Israel were fruitful and increased abundantly, multiplied and grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them.

nkjv@Exodus:1:9 @ And he said to his people, "Look, the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we;

nkjv@Exodus:1:10 @ come, let us deal shrewdly with them, lest they multiply, and it happen, in the event of war, that they also join our enemies and fight against us, and so go up out of the land."

nkjv@Exodus:1:11 @ Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. And they built for Pharaoh supply cities, Pithom and Raamses.

nkjv@Exodus:1:12 @ But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and grew. And they were in dread of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Exodus:1:14 @ And they made their lives bitter with hard bondage--in mortar, in brick, and in all manner of service in the field. All their service in which they made them serve was with rigor.

nkjv@Exodus:1:15 @ Then the king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of one was Shiphrah and the name of the other Puah;

nkjv@Exodus:1:16 @ and he said, "When you do the duties of a midwife for the Hebrew women, and see them on the birthstools, if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live."

nkjv@Exodus:1:17 @ But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the male children alive.

nkjv@Exodus:1:18 @ So the king of Egypt called for the midwives and said to them, "Why have you done this thing, and saved the male children alive?"

nkjv@Exodus:1:19 @ And the midwives said to Pharaoh, "Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women; for they are lively and give birth before the midwives come to them."

nkjv@Exodus:1:20 @ Therefore God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied and grew very mighty.

nkjv@Exodus:1:21 @ And so it was, because the midwives feared God, that He provided households for them.

nkjv@Exodus:1:22 @ So Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, "Every son who is born you shall cast into the river, and every daughter you shall save alive."

nkjv@Exodus:2:1 @ And a man of the house of Levi went and took as wife a daughter of Levi.

nkjv@Exodus:2:2 @ So the woman conceived and bore a son. And when she saw that he was a beautiful child, she hid him three months.

nkjv@Exodus:2:3 @ But when she could no longer hide him, she took an ark of bulrushes for him, daubed it with asphalt and pitch, put the child in it, and laid it in the reeds by the river's bank.

nkjv@Exodus:2:4 @ And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to him.

nkjv@Exodus:2:5 @ Then the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river. And her maidens walked along the riverside; and when she saw the ark among the reeds, she sent her maid to get it.

nkjv@Exodus:2:6 @ And when she opened it, she saw the child, and behold, the baby wept. So she had compassion on him, and said, "This is one of the Hebrews' children."

nkjv@Exodus:2:7 @ Then his sister said to Pharaoh's daughter, "Shall I go and call a nurse for you from the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for you?"

nkjv@Exodus:2:8 @ And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Go." So the maiden went and called the child's mother.

nkjv@Exodus:2:9 @ Then Pharaoh's daughter said to her, "Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages." So the woman took the child and nursed him.

nkjv@Exodus:2:10 @ And the child grew, and she brought him to Pharaoh's daughter, and he became her son. So she called his name Moses, saying, "Because I drew him out of the water."

nkjv@Exodus:2:11 @ Now it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out to his brethren and looked at their burdens. And he saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his brethren.

nkjv@Exodus:2:12 @ So he looked this way and that way, and when he saw no one, he killed the Egyptian and hid him in the sand.

nkjv@Exodus:2:13 @ And when he went out the second day, behold, two Hebrew men were fighting, and he said to the one who did the wrong, "Why are you striking your companion?"

nkjv@Exodus:2:14 @ Then he said, "Who made you a prince and a judge over us? Do you intend to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?" So Moses feared and said, "Surely this thing is known!"

nkjv@Exodus:2:15 @ When Pharaoh heard of this matter, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from the face of Pharaoh and dwelt in the land of Midian; and he sat down by a well.

nkjv@Exodus:2:16 @ Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters. And they came and drew water, and they filled the troughs to water their father's flock.

nkjv@Exodus:2:17 @ Then the shepherds came and drove them away; but Moses stood up and helped them, and watered their flock.

nkjv@Exodus:2:19 @ And they said, "An Egyptian delivered us from the hand of the shepherds, and he also drew enough water for us and watered the flock."

nkjv@Exodus:2:20 @ So he said to his daughters, "And where is he? Why is it that you have left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread."

nkjv@Exodus:2:21 @ Then Moses was content to live with the man, and he gave Zipporah his daughter to Moses.

nkjv@Exodus:2:22 @ And she bore him a son. He called his name Gershom, for he said, "I have been a stranger in a foreign land."

nkjv@Exodus:2:23 @ Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died. Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.

nkjv@Exodus:2:24 @ So God heard their groaning, and God remembered His covenant with Abraham, with Isaac, and with Jacob.

nkjv@Exodus:2:25 @ And God looked upon the children of Israel, and God acknowledged them.

nkjv@Exodus:3:1 @ Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian. And he led the flock to the back of the desert, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God.

nkjv@Exodus:3:2 @ And the Angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire from the midst of a bush. So he looked, and behold, the bush was burning with fire, but the bush was not consumed.

nkjv@Exodus:3:3 @ Then Moses said, "I will now turn aside and see this great sight, why the bush does not burn."

nkjv@Exodus:3:4 @ So when the LORD saw that he turned aside to look, God called to him from the midst of the bush and said, "Moses, Moses!" And he said, "Here I am."

nkjv@Exodus:3:5 @ Then He said, "Do not draw near this place. Take your sandals off your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground."

nkjv@Exodus:3:6 @ Moreover He said, "I am the God of your father--the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look upon God.

nkjv@Exodus:3:7 @ And the LORD said: "I have surely seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.

nkjv@Exodus:3:8 @ So I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up from that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey, to the place of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites.

nkjv@Exodus:3:9 @ Now therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to Me, and I have also seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.

nkjv@Exodus:3:10 @ Come now, therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh that you may bring My people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt."

nkjv@Exodus:3:11 @ But Moses said to God, "Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the children of Israel out of Egypt?"

nkjv@Exodus:3:12 @ So He said, "I will certainly be with you. And this shall be a sign to you that I have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain."

nkjv@Exodus:3:13 @ Then Moses said to God, "Indeed, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, "The God of your fathers has sent me to you,' and they say to me, "What is His name?' what shall I say to them?"

nkjv@Exodus:3:14 @ And God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM." And He said, "Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, "I AM has sent me to you."'

nkjv@Exodus:3:15 @ Moreover God said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the children of Israel: "The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you. This is My name forever, and this is My memorial to all generations.'

nkjv@Exodus:3:16 @ Go and gather the elders of Israel together, and say to them, "The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared to me, saying, "I have surely visited you and seen what is done to you in Egypt;

nkjv@Exodus:3:17 @ and I have said I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, to a land flowing with milk and honey."'

nkjv@Exodus:3:18 @ Then they will heed your voice; and you shall come, you and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt; and you shall say to him, "The LORD God of the Hebrews has met with us; and now, please, let us go three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.'

nkjv@Exodus:3:19 @ But I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not even by a mighty hand.

nkjv@Exodus:3:20 @ So I will stretch out My hand and strike Egypt with all My wonders which I will do in its midst; and after that he will let you go.

nkjv@Exodus:3:21 @ And I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians; and it shall be, when you go, that you shall not go empty-handed.

nkjv@Exodus:3:22 @ But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, namely, of her who dwells near her house, articles of silver, articles of gold, and clothing; and you shall put them on your sons and on your daughters. So you shall plunder the Egyptians."

nkjv@Exodus:4:1 @ Then Moses answered and said, "But suppose they will not believe me or listen to my voice; suppose they say, "The LORD has not appeared to you."'

nkjv@Exodus:4:2 @ So the LORD said to him, "What is that in your hand?" He said, "A rod."

nkjv@Exodus:4:3 @ And He said, "Cast it on the ground." So he cast it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and Moses fled from it.

nkjv@Exodus:4:4 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Reach out your hand and take it by the tail" (and he reached out his hand and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand),

nkjv@Exodus:4:5 @ "that they may believe that the LORD God of their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has appeared to you."

nkjv@Exodus:4:6 @ Furthermore the LORD said to him, "Now put your hand in your bosom." And he put his hand in his bosom, and when he took it out, behold, his hand was leprous, like snow.

nkjv@Exodus:4:7 @ And He said, "Put your hand in your bosom again." So he put his hand in his bosom again, and drew it out of his bosom, and behold, it was restored like his other flesh.

nkjv@Exodus:4:9 @ And it shall be, if they do not believe even these two signs, or listen to your voice, that you shall take water from the river and pour it on the dry land. The water which you take from the river will become blood on the dry land."

nkjv@Exodus:4:10 @ Then Moses said to the LORD, "O my Lord, I am not eloquent, neither before nor since You have spoken to Your servant; but I am slow of speech and slow of tongue."

nkjv@Exodus:4:12 @ Now therefore, go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall say."

nkjv@Exodus:4:13 @ But he said, "O my Lord, please send by the hand of whomever else You may send."

nkjv@Exodus:4:14 @ So the anger of the LORD was kindled against Moses, and He said: "Is not Aaron the Levite your brother? I know that he can speak well. And look, he is also coming out to meet you. When he sees you, he will be glad in his heart.

nkjv@Exodus:4:15 @ Now you shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth. And I will be with your mouth and with his mouth, and I will teach you what you shall do.

nkjv@Exodus:4:16 @ So he shall be your spokesman to the people. And he himself shall be as a mouth for you, and you shall be to him as God.

nkjv@Exodus:4:17 @ And you shall take this rod in your hand, with which you shall do the signs."

nkjv@Exodus:4:18 @ So Moses went and returned to Jethro his father-in-law, and said to him, "Please let me go and return to my brethren who are in Egypt, and see whether they are still alive." And Jethro said to Moses, "Go in peace."

nkjv@Exodus:4:20 @ Then Moses took his wife and his sons and set them on a donkey, and he returned to the land of Egypt. And Moses took the rod of God in his hand.

nkjv@Exodus:4:21 @ And the LORD said to Moses, "When you go back to Egypt, see that you do all those wonders before Pharaoh which I have put in your hand. But I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people go.

nkjv@Exodus:4:24 @ And it came to pass on the way, at the encampment, that the LORD met him and sought to kill him.

nkjv@Exodus:4:25 @ Then Zipporah took a sharp stone and cut off the foreskin of her son and cast it at Moses' feet, and said, "Surely you are a husband of blood to me!"

nkjv@Exodus:4:26 @ So He let him go. Then she said, "You are a husband of blood!"--because of the circumcision.

nkjv@Exodus:4:27 @ And the LORD said to Aaron, "Go into the wilderness to meet Moses." So he went and met him on the mountain of God, and kissed him.

nkjv@Exodus:4:28 @ So Moses told Aaron all the words of the LORD who had sent him, and all the signs which He had commanded him.

nkjv@Exodus:4:29 @ Then Moses and Aaron went and gathered together all the elders of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Exodus:4:30 @ And Aaron spoke all the words which the LORD had spoken to Moses. Then he did the signs in the sight of the people.

nkjv@Exodus:4:31 @ So the people believed; and when they heard that the LORD had visited the children of Israel and that He had looked on their affliction, then they bowed their heads and worshiped.

nkjv@Exodus:5:1 @ Afterward Moses and Aaron went in and told Pharaoh, "Thus says the LORD God of Israel: "Let My people go, that they may hold a feast to Me in the wilderness."'

nkjv@Exodus:5:2 @ And Pharaoh said, "Who is the LORD, that I should obey His voice to let Israel go? I do not know the LORD, nor will I let Israel go."

nkjv@Exodus:5:3 @ So they said, "The God of the Hebrews has met with us. Please, let us go three days' journey into the desert and sacrifice to the LORD our God, lest He fall upon us with pestilence or with the sword."

nkjv@Exodus:5:4 @ Then the king of Egypt said to them, "Moses and Aaron, why do you take the people from their work? Get back to your labor."

nkjv@Exodus:5:5 @ And Pharaoh said, "Look, the people of the land are many now, and you make them rest from their labor!"

nkjv@Exodus:5:6 @ So the same day Pharaoh commanded the taskmasters of the people and their officers, saying,

nkjv@Exodus:5:7 @ "You shall no longer give the people straw to make brick as before. Let them go and gather straw for themselves.

nkjv@Exodus:5:13 @ And the taskmasters forced them to hurry, saying, "Fulfill your work, your daily quota, as when there was straw."

nkjv@Exodus:5:14 @ Also the officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten and were asked, "Why have you not fulfilled your task in making brick both yesterday and today, as before?"

nkjv@Exodus:5:15 @ Then the officers of the children of Israel came and cried out to Pharaoh, saying, "Why are you dealing thus with your servants?

nkjv@Exodus:5:16 @ There is no straw given to your servants, and they say to us, "Make brick!' And indeed your servants are beaten, but the fault is in your own people."

nkjv@Exodus:5:17 @ But he said, "You are idle! Idle! Therefore you say, "Let us go and sacrifice to the LORD.'

nkjv@Exodus:5:18 @ Therefore go now and work; for no straw shall be given you, yet you shall deliver the quota of bricks."

nkjv@Exodus:5:19 @ And the officers of the children of Israel saw that they were in trouble after it was said, "You shall not reduce any bricks from your daily quota."

nkjv@Exodus:5:20 @ Then, as they came out from Pharaoh, they met Moses and Aaron who stood there to meet them.

nkjv@Exodus:5:21 @ And they said to them, "Let the LORD look on you and judge, because you have made us abhorrent in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants, to put a sword in their hand to kill us."

nkjv@Exodus:5:22 @ So Moses returned to the LORD and said, "Lord, why have You brought trouble on this people? Why is it You have sent me?

nkjv@Exodus:6:12 @ And Moses spoke before the LORD, saying, "The children of Israel have not heeded me. How then shall Pharaoh heed me, for I am of uncircumcised lips?"

nkjv@Exodus:6:13 @ Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, and gave them a command for the children of Israel and for Pharaoh king of Egypt, to bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:6:30 @ But Moses said before the LORD, "Behold, I am of uncircumcised lips, and how shall Pharaoh heed me?"

nkjv@Exodus:7:9 @ "When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, "Show a miracle for yourselves,' then you shall say to Aaron, "Take your rod and cast it before Pharaoh, and let it become a serpent."'

nkjv@Exodus:7:10 @ So Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, just as the LORD commanded. And Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

nkjv@Exodus:7:11 @ But Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments.

nkjv@Exodus:7:20 @ And Moses and Aaron did so, just as the LORD commanded. So he lifted up the rod and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh and in the sight of his servants. And all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.

nkjv@Exodus:7:21 @ The fish that were in the river died, the river stank, and the Egyptians could not drink the water of the river. So there was blood throughout all the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:7:22 @ Then the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments; and Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the LORD had said.

nkjv@Exodus:7:23 @ And Pharaoh turned and went into his house. Neither was his heart moved by this.

nkjv@Exodus:7:25 @ And seven days passed after the LORD had struck the river.

nkjv@Exodus:8:7 @ And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:8:8 @ Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron, and said, "Entreat the LORD that He may take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will let the people go, that they may sacrifice to the LORD."

nkjv@Exodus:8:10 @ So he said, "Tomorrow." And he said, "Let it be according to your word, that you may know that there is no one like the LORD our God.

nkjv@Exodus:8:11 @ And the frogs shall depart from you, from your houses, from your servants, and from your people. They shall remain in the river only."

nkjv@Exodus:8:12 @ Then Moses and Aaron went out from Pharaoh. And Moses cried out to the LORD concerning the frogs which He had brought against Pharaoh.

nkjv@Exodus:8:13 @ So the LORD did according to the word of Moses. And the frogs died out of the houses, out of the courtyards, and out of the fields.

nkjv@Exodus:8:14 @ They gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.

nkjv@Exodus:8:15 @ But when Pharaoh saw that there was relief, he hardened his heart and did not heed them, as the LORD had said.

nkjv@Exodus:8:16 @ So the LORD said to Moses, "Say to Aaron, "Stretch out your rod, and strike the dust of the land, so that it may become lice throughout all the land of Egypt."'

nkjv@Exodus:8:17 @ And they did so. For Aaron stretched out his hand with his rod and struck the dust of the earth, and it became lice on man and beast. All the dust of the land became lice throughout all the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:8:18 @ Now the magicians so worked with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not. So there were lice on man and beast.

nkjv@Exodus:8:19 @ Then the magicians said to Pharaoh, "This is the finger of God." But Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, just as the LORD had said.

nkjv@Exodus:8:26 @ And Moses said, "It is not right to do so, for we would be sacrificing the abomination of the Egyptians to the LORD our God. If we sacrifice the abomination of the Egyptians before their eyes, then will they not stone us?

nkjv@Exodus:8:27 @ We will go three days' journey into the wilderness and sacrifice to the LORD our God as He will command us."

nkjv@Exodus:8:29 @ Then Moses said, "Indeed I am going out from you, and I will entreat the LORD, that the swarms of flies may depart tomorrow from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. But let Pharaoh not deal deceitfully anymore in not letting the people go to sacrifice to the LORD."

nkjv@Exodus:8:30 @ So Moses went out from Pharaoh and entreated the LORD.

nkjv@Exodus:8:31 @ And the LORD did according to the word of Moses; He removed the swarms of flies from Pharaoh, from his servants, and from his people. Not one remained.

nkjv@Exodus:9:20 @ He who feared the word of the LORD among the servants of Pharaoh made his servants and his livestock flee to the houses.

nkjv@Exodus:9:21 @ But he who did not regard the word of the LORD left his servants and his livestock in the field.

nkjv@Exodus:9:22 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward heaven, that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt--on man, on beast, and on every herb of the field, throughout the land of Egypt."

nkjv@Exodus:9:23 @ And Moses stretched out his rod toward heaven; and the LORD sent thunder and hail, and fire darted to the ground. And the LORD rained hail on the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:9:24 @ So there was hail, and fire mingled with the hail, so very heavy that there was none like it in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation.

nkjv@Exodus:9:25 @ And the hail struck throughout the whole land of Egypt, all that was in the field, both man and beast; and the hail struck every herb of the field and broke every tree of the field.

nkjv@Exodus:9:26 @ Only in the land of Goshen, where the children of Israel were, there was no hail.

nkjv@Exodus:9:27 @ And Pharaoh sent and called for Moses and Aaron, and said to them, "I have sinned this time. The LORD is righteous, and my people and I are wicked.

nkjv@Exodus:9:28 @ Entreat the LORD, that there may be no more mighty thundering and hail, for it is enough. I will let you go, and you shall stay no longer."

nkjv@Exodus:9:29 @ So Moses said to him, "As soon as I have gone out of the city, I will spread out my hands to the LORD; the thunder will cease, and there will be no more hail, that you may know that the earth is the LORD's.

nkjv@Exodus:9:30 @ But as for you and your servants, I know that you will not yet fear the LORD God."

nkjv@Exodus:9:31 @ Now the flax and the barley were struck, for the barley was in the head and the flax was in bud.

nkjv@Exodus:9:32 @ But the wheat and the spelt were not struck, for they are late crops.

nkjv@Exodus:9:33 @ So Moses went out of the city from Pharaoh and spread out his hands to the LORD; then the thunder and the hail ceased, and the rain was not poured on the earth.

nkjv@Exodus:9:34 @ And when Pharaoh saw that the rain, the hail, and the thunder had ceased, he sinned yet more; and he hardened his heart, he and his servants.

nkjv@Exodus:10:1 @ Now the LORD said to Moses, "Go in to Pharaoh; for I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his servants, that I may show these signs of Mine before him,

nkjv@Exodus:10:6 @ They shall fill your houses, the houses of all your servants, and the houses of all the Egyptians--which neither your fathers nor your fathers' fathers have seen, since the day that they were on the earth to this day."' And he turned and went out from Pharaoh.

nkjv@Exodus:10:8 @ So Moses and Aaron were brought again to Pharaoh, and he said to them, "Go, serve the LORD your God. Who are the ones that are going?"

nkjv@Exodus:10:9 @ And Moses said, "We will go with our young and our old; with our sons and our daughters, with our flocks and our herds we will go, for we must hold a feast to the LORD."

nkjv@Exodus:10:10 @ Then he said to them, "The LORD had better be with you when I let you and your little ones go! Beware, for evil is ahead of you.

nkjv@Exodus:10:11 @ Not so! Go now, you who are men, and serve the LORD, for that is what you desired." And they were driven out from Pharaoh's presence.

nkjv@Exodus:10:12 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the land of Egypt for the locusts, that they may come upon the land of Egypt, and eat every herb of the land--all that the hail has left."

nkjv@Exodus:10:13 @ So Moses stretched out his rod over the land of Egypt, and the LORD brought an east wind on the land all that day and all that night. When it was morning, the east wind brought the locusts.

nkjv@Exodus:10:14 @ And the locusts went up over all the land of Egypt and rested on all the territory of Egypt. They were very severe; previously there had been no such locusts as they, nor shall there be such after them.

nkjv@Exodus:10:15 @ For they covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they ate every herb of the land and all the fruit of the trees which the hail had left. So there remained nothing green on the trees or on the plants of the field throughout all the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:10:16 @ Then Pharaoh called for Moses and Aaron in haste, and said, "I have sinned against the LORD your God and against you.

nkjv@Exodus:10:17 @ Now therefore, please forgive my sin only this once, and entreat the LORD your God, that He may take away from me this death only."

nkjv@Exodus:10:18 @ So he went out from Pharaoh and entreated the LORD.

nkjv@Exodus:10:19 @ And the LORD turned a very strong west wind, which took the locusts away and blew them into the Red Sea. There remained not one locust in all the territory of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:10:20 @ But the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go.

nkjv@Exodus:10:21 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward heaven, that there may be darkness over the land of Egypt, darkness which may even be felt."

nkjv@Exodus:11:10 @ So Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh; and the LORD hardened Pharaoh's heart, and he did not let the children of Israel go out of his land.

nkjv@Exodus:12:41 @ And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years--on that very same day--it came to pass that all the armies of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:12:42 @ It is a night of solemn observance to the LORD for bringing them out of the land of Egypt. This is that night of the LORD, a solemn observance for all the children of Israel throughout their generations.

nkjv@Exodus:12:43 @ And the LORD said to Moses and Aaron, "This is the ordinance of the Passover: No foreigner shall eat it.

nkjv@Exodus:12:45 @ A sojourner and a hired servant shall not eat it.

nkjv@Exodus:12:48 @ And when a stranger dwells with you and wants to keep the Passover to the LORD, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as a native of the land. For no uncircumcised person shall eat it.

nkjv@Exodus:12:49 @ One law shall be for the native-born and for the stranger who dwells among you."

nkjv@Exodus:12:50 @ Thus all the children of Israel did; as the LORD commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

nkjv@Exodus:12:51 @ And it came to pass, on that very same day, that the LORD brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt according to their armies.

nkjv@Exodus:13:2 @ "Consecrate to Me all the firstborn, whatever opens the womb among the children of Israel, both of man and beast; it is Mine."

nkjv@Exodus:13:3 @ And Moses said to the people: "Remember this day in which you went out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out of this place. No leavened bread shall be eaten.

nkjv@Exodus:13:5 @ And it shall be, when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites and the Hittites and the Amorites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, which He swore to your fathers to give you, a land flowing with milk and honey, that you shall keep this service in this month.

nkjv@Exodus:13:6 @ Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread, and on the seventh day there shall be a feast to the LORD.

nkjv@Exodus:13:7 @ Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days. And no leavened bread shall be seen among you, nor shall leaven be seen among you in all your quarters.

nkjv@Exodus:13:8 @ And you shall tell your son in that day, saying, "This is done because of what the LORD did for me when I came up from Egypt.'

nkjv@Exodus:13:9 @ It shall be as a sign to you on your hand and as a memorial between your eyes, that the LORD's law may be in your mouth; for with a strong hand the LORD has brought you out of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:13:11 @ "And it shall be, when the LORD brings you into the land of the Canaanites, as He swore to you and your fathers, and gives it to you,

nkjv@Exodus:13:13 @ But every firstborn of a donkey you shall redeem with a lamb; and if you will not redeem it, then you shall break its neck. And all the firstborn of man among your sons you shall redeem.

nkjv@Exodus:13:14 @ So it shall be, when your son asks you in time to come, saying, "What is this?' that you shall say to him, "By strength of hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

nkjv@Exodus:13:15 @ And it came to pass, when Pharaoh was stubborn about letting us go, that the LORD killed all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man and the firstborn of beast. Therefore I sacrifice to the LORD all males that open the womb, but all the firstborn of my sons I redeem.'

nkjv@Exodus:13:16 @ It shall be as a sign on your hand and as frontlets between your eyes, for by strength of hand the LORD brought us out of Egypt."

nkjv@Exodus:13:17 @ Then it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God did not lead them by way of the land of the Philistines, although that was near; for God said, "Lest perhaps the people change their minds when they see war, and return to Egypt."

nkjv@Exodus:13:18 @ So God led the people around by way of the wilderness of the Red Sea. And the children of Israel went up in orderly ranks out of the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:13:19 @ And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him, for he had placed the children of Israel under solemn oath, saying, "God will surely visit you, and you shall carry up my bones from here with you."

nkjv@Exodus:13:20 @ So they took their journey from Succoth and camped in Etham at the edge of the wilderness.

nkjv@Exodus:13:21 @ And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night.

nkjv@Exodus:14:2 @ "Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn and camp before Pi Hahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, opposite Baal Zephon; you shall camp before it by the sea.

nkjv@Exodus:14:3 @ For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, "They are bewildered by the land; the wilderness has closed them in.'

nkjv@Exodus:14:4 @ Then I will harden Pharaoh's heart, so that he will pursue them; and I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, that the Egyptians may know that I am the LORD." And they did so.

nkjv@Exodus:14:5 @ Now it was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled, and the heart of Pharaoh and his servants was turned against the people; and they said, "Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?"

nkjv@Exodus:14:6 @ So he made ready his chariot and took his people with him.

nkjv@Exodus:14:7 @ Also, he took six hundred choice chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt with captains over every one of them.

nkjv@Exodus:14:8 @ And the LORD hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued the children of Israel; and the children of Israel went out with boldness.

nkjv@Exodus:14:9 @ So the Egyptians pursued them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen and his army, and overtook them camping by the sea beside Pi Hahiroth, before Baal Zephon.

nkjv@Exodus:14:10 @ And when Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians marched after them. So they were very afraid, and the children of Israel cried out to the LORD.

nkjv@Exodus:14:13 @ And Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever.

nkjv@Exodus:14:14 @ The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace."

nkjv@Exodus:14:15 @ And the LORD said to Moses, "Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward.

nkjv@Exodus:14:16 @ But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.

nkjv@Exodus:14:17 @ And I indeed will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them. So I will gain honor over Pharaoh and over all his army, his chariots, and his horsemen.

nkjv@Exodus:14:18 @ Then the Egyptians shall know that I am the LORD, when I have gained honor for Myself over Pharaoh, his chariots, and his horsemen."

nkjv@Exodus:14:19 @ And the Angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud went from before them and stood behind them.

nkjv@Exodus:14:20 @ So it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel. Thus it was a cloud and darkness to the one, and it gave light by night to the other, so that the one did not come near the other all that night.

nkjv@Exodus:14:21 @ Then Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea into dry land, and the waters were divided.

nkjv@Exodus:14:22 @ So the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.

nkjv@Exodus:14:23 @ And the Egyptians pursued and went after them into the midst of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.

nkjv@Exodus:14:24 @ Now it came to pass, in the morning watch, that the LORD looked down upon the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud, and He troubled the army of the Egyptians.

nkjv@Exodus:14:25 @ And He took off their chariot wheels, so that they drove them with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, "Let us flee from the face of Israel, for the LORD fights for them against the Egyptians."

nkjv@Exodus:14:26 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come back upon the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen."

nkjv@Exodus:14:27 @ And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and when the morning appeared, the sea returned to its full depth, while the Egyptians were fleeing into it. So the LORD overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

nkjv@Exodus:14:28 @ Then the waters returned and covered the chariots, the horsemen, and all the army of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them. Not so much as one of them remained.

nkjv@Exodus:14:29 @ But the children of Israel had walked on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand and on their left.

nkjv@Exodus:14:30 @ So the LORD saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.

nkjv@Exodus:14:31 @ Thus Israel saw the great work which the LORD had done in Egypt; so the people feared the LORD, and believed the LORD and His servant Moses.

nkjv@Exodus:15:1 @ Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to the LORD, and spoke, saying: "I will sing to the LORD, For He has triumphed gloriously! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea!

nkjv@Exodus:15:2 @ The LORD is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation; He is my God, and I will praise Him; My father's God, and I will exalt Him.

nkjv@Exodus:15:4 @ Pharaoh's chariots and his army He has cast into the sea; His chosen captains also are drowned in the Red Sea.

nkjv@Exodus:15:6 @ "Your right hand, O LORD, has become glorious in power; Your right hand, O LORD, has dashed the enemy in pieces.

nkjv@Exodus:15:7 @ And in the greatness of Your excellence You have overthrown those who rose against You; You sent forth Your wrath; It consumed them like stubble.

nkjv@Exodus:15:8 @ And with the blast of Your nostrils The waters were gathered together; The floods stood upright like a heap; The depths congealed in the heart of the sea.

nkjv@Exodus:15:9 @ The enemy said, "I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; My desire shall be satisfied on them. I will draw my sword, My hand shall destroy them.'

nkjv@Exodus:15:12 @ You stretched out Your right hand; The earth swallowed them.

nkjv@Exodus:15:14 @ "The people will hear and be afraid; Sorrow will take hold of the inhabitants of Philistia.

nkjv@Exodus:15:16 @ Fear and dread will fall on them; By the greatness of Your arm They will be as still as a stone, Till Your people pass over, O LORD, Till the people pass over Whom You have purchased.

nkjv@Exodus:15:17 @ You will bring them in and plant them In the mountain of Your inheritance, In the place, O LORD, which You have made For Your own dwelling, The sanctuary, O LORD, which Your hands have established.

nkjv@Exodus:15:18 @ "The LORD shall reign forever and ever."

nkjv@Exodus:15:19 @ For the horses of Pharaoh went with his chariots and his horsemen into the sea, and the LORD brought back the waters of the sea upon them. But the children of Israel went on dry land in the midst of the sea.

nkjv@Exodus:15:20 @ Then Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took the timbrel in her hand; and all the women went out after her with timbrels and with dances.

nkjv@Exodus:15:21 @ And Miriam answered them: "Sing to the LORD, For He has triumphed gloriously! The horse and its rider He has thrown into the sea!"

nkjv@Exodus:15:22 @ So Moses brought Israel from the Red Sea; then they went out into the Wilderness of Shur. And they went three days in the wilderness and found no water.

nkjv@Exodus:15:24 @ And the people complained against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink?"

nkjv@Exodus:15:25 @ So he cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a tree. When he cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet. There He made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there He tested them,

nkjv@Exodus:15:26 @ and said, "If you diligently heed the voice of the LORD your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the LORD who heals you."

nkjv@Exodus:15:27 @ Then they came to Elim, where there were twelve wells of water and seventy palm trees; so they camped there by the waters.

nkjv@Exodus:16:1 @ And they journeyed from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came to the Wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they departed from the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:16:2 @ Then the whole congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness.

nkjv@Exodus:16:3 @ And the children of Israel said to them, "Oh, that we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the pots of meat and when we ate bread to the full! For you have brought us out into this wilderness to kill this whole assembly with hunger."

nkjv@Exodus:16:4 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you. And the people shall go out and gather a certain quota every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in My law or not.

nkjv@Exodus:16:5 @ And it shall be on the sixth day that they shall prepare what they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily."

nkjv@Exodus:16:6 @ Then Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, "At evening you shall know that the LORD has brought you out of the land of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:16:7 @ And in the morning you shall see the glory of the LORD; for He hears your complaints against the LORD. But what are we, that you complain against us?"

nkjv@Exodus:16:8 @ Also Moses said, "This shall be seen when the LORD gives you meat to eat in the evening, and in the morning bread to the full; for the LORD hears your complaints which you make against Him. And what are we? Your complaints are not against us but against the LORD."

nkjv@Exodus:16:10 @ Now it came to pass, as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud.

nkjv@Exodus:16:11 @ And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

nkjv@Exodus:16:12 @ "I have heard the complaints of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, "At twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread. And you shall know that I am the LORD your God."'

nkjv@Exodus:16:13 @ So it was that quails came up at evening and covered the camp, and in the morning the dew lay all around the camp.

nkjv@Exodus:16:14 @ And when the layer of dew lifted, there, on the surface of the wilderness, was a small round substance, as fine as frost on the ground.

nkjv@Exodus:16:15 @ So when the children of Israel saw it, they said to one another, "What is it?" For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, "This is the bread which the LORD has given you to eat.

nkjv@Exodus:16:16 @ This is the thing which the LORD has commanded: "Let every man gather it according to each one's need, one omer for each person, according to the number of persons; let every man take for those who are in his tent."'

nkjv@Exodus:16:17 @ Then the children of Israel did so and gathered, some more, some less.

nkjv@Exodus:16:18 @ So when they measured it by omers, he who gathered much had nothing left over, and he who gathered little had no lack. Every man had gathered according to each one's need.

nkjv@Exodus:16:19 @ And Moses said, "Let no one leave any of it till morning."

nkjv@Exodus:16:20 @ Notwithstanding they did not heed Moses. But some of them left part of it until morning, and it bred worms and stank. And Moses was angry with them.

nkjv@Exodus:16:21 @ So they gathered it every morning, every man according to his need. And when the sun became hot, it melted.

nkjv@Exodus:16:22 @ And so it was, on the sixth day, that they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one. And all the rulers of the congregation came and told Moses.

nkjv@Exodus:16:23 @ Then he said to them, "This is what the LORD has said: "Tomorrow is a Sabbath rest, a holy Sabbath to the LORD. Bake what you will bake today, and boil what you will boil; and lay up for yourselves all that remains, to be kept until morning."'

nkjv@Exodus:16:24 @ So they laid it up till morning, as Moses commanded; and it did not stink, nor were there any worms in it.

nkjv@Exodus:16:28 @ And the LORD said to Moses, "How long do you refuse to keep My commandments and My laws?

nkjv@Exodus:16:31 @ And the house of Israel called its name Manna. And it was like white coriander seed, and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey.

nkjv@Exodus:16:32 @ Then Moses said, "This is the thing which the LORD has commanded: "Fill an omer with it, to be kept for your generations, that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt."'

nkjv@Exodus:16:33 @ And Moses said to Aaron, "Take a pot and put an omer of manna in it, and lay it up before the LORD, to be kept for your generations."

nkjv@Exodus:16:34 @ As the LORD commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.

nkjv@Exodus:16:35 @ And the children of Israel ate manna forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate manna until they came to the border of the land of Canaan.

nkjv@Exodus:17:1 @ Then all the congregation of the children of Israel set out on their journey from the Wilderness of Sin, according to the commandment of the LORD, and camped in Rephidim; but there was no water for the people to drink.

nkjv@Exodus:17:2 @ Therefore the people contended with Moses, and said, "Give us water, that we may drink." So Moses said to them, "Why do you contend with me? Why do you tempt the LORD?"

nkjv@Exodus:17:3 @ And the people thirsted there for water, and the people complained against Moses, and said, "Why is it you have brought us up out of Egypt, to kill us and our children and our livestock with thirst?"

nkjv@Exodus:17:5 @ And the LORD said to Moses, "Go on before the people, and take with you some of the elders of Israel. Also take in your hand your rod with which you struck the river, and go.

nkjv@Exodus:17:6 @ Behold, I will stand before you there on the rock in Horeb; and you shall strike the rock, and water will come out of it, that the people may drink." And Moses did so in the sight of the elders of Israel.

nkjv@Exodus:17:7 @ So he called the name of the place Massah and Meribah, because of the contention of the children of Israel, and because they tempted the LORD, saying, "Is the LORD among us or not?"

nkjv@Exodus:17:8 @ Now Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim.

nkjv@Exodus:17:9 @ And Moses said to Joshua, "Choose us some men and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand."

nkjv@Exodus:17:10 @ So Joshua did as Moses said to him, and fought with Amalek. And Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

nkjv@Exodus:17:11 @ And so it was, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed.

nkjv@Exodus:17:12 @ But Moses' hands became heavy; so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. And Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun.

nkjv@Exodus:17:13 @ So Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.

nkjv@Exodus:17:14 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Write this for a memorial in the book and recount it in the hearing of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven."

nkjv@Exodus:17:15 @ And Moses built an altar and called its name, The-LORD-Is-My-Banner;

nkjv@Exodus:18:1 @ And Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father-in-law, heard of all that God had done for Moses and for Israel His people--that the LORD had brought Israel out of Egypt.

nkjv@Exodus:18:3 @ with her two sons, of whom the name of one was Gershom (for he said, "I have been a stranger in a foreign land")

nkjv@Exodus:18:4 @ and the name of the other was Eliezer (for he said, "The God of my father was my help, and delivered me from the sword of Pharaoh");

nkjv@Exodus:18:5 @ and Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, came with his sons and his wife to Moses in the wilderness, where he was encamped at the mountain of God.

nkjv@Exodus:18:6 @ Now he had said to Moses, "I, your father-in-law Jethro, am coming to you with your wife and her two sons with her."

nkjv@Exodus:18:7 @ So Moses went out to meet his father-in-law, bowed down, and kissed him. And they asked each other about their well-being, and they went into the tent.

nkjv@Exodus:18:8 @ And Moses told his father-in-law all that the LORD had done to Pharaoh and to the Egyptians for Israel's sake, all the hardship that had come upon them on the way, and how the LORD had delivered them.

nkjv@Exodus:18:9 @ Then Jethro rejoiced for all the good which the LORD had done for Israel, whom He had delivered out of the hand of the Egyptians.

nkjv@Exodus:18:10 @ And Jethro said, "Blessed be the LORD, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians and out of the hand of Pharaoh, and who has delivered the people from under the hand of the Egyptians.

nkjv@Exodus:18:12 @ Then Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, took a burnt offering and other sacrifices to offer to God. And Aaron came with all the elders of Israel to eat bread with Moses' father-in-law before God.

nkjv@Exodus:18:13 @ And so it was, on the next day, that Moses sat to judge the people; and the people stood before Moses from morning until evening.

nkjv@Exodus:18:14 @ So when Moses' father-in-law saw all that he did for the people, he said, "What is this thing that you are doing for the people? Why do you alone sit, and all the people stand before you from morning until evening?"

nkjv@Exodus:18:15 @ And Moses said to his father-in-law, "Because the people come to me to inquire of God.

nkjv@Exodus:18:16 @ When they have a difficulty, they come to me, and I judge between one and another; and I make known the statutes of God and His laws."

nkjv@Exodus:18:18 @ Both you and these people who are with you will surely wear yourselves out. For this thing is too much for you; you are not able to perform it by yourself.

nkjv@Exodus:18:19 @ Listen now to my voice; I will give you counsel, and God will be with you: Stand before God for the people, so that you may bring the difficulties to God.

nkjv@Exodus:18:20 @ And you shall teach them the statutes and the laws, and show them the way in which they must walk and the work they must do.

nkjv@Exodus:18:21 @ Moreover you shall select from all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them to be rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

nkjv@Exodus:18:22 @ And let them judge the people at all times. Then it will be that every great matter they shall bring to you, but every small matter they themselves shall judge. So it will be easier for you, for they will bear the burden with you.

nkjv@Exodus:18:23 @ If you do this thing, and God so commands you, then you will be able to endure, and all this people will also go to their place in peace."

nkjv@Exodus:18:24 @ So Moses heeded the voice of his father-in-law and did all that he had said.

nkjv@Exodus:18:25 @ And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people: rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

nkjv@Exodus:18:27 @ Then Moses let his father-in-law depart, and he went his way to his own land.

nkjv@Exodus:19:1 @ In the third month after the children of Israel had gone out of the land of Egypt, on the same day, they came to the Wilderness of Sinai.

nkjv@Exodus:19:2 @ For they had departed from Rephidim, had come to the Wilderness of Sinai, and camped in the wilderness. So Israel camped there before the mountain.

nkjv@Exodus:19:3 @ And Moses went up to God, and the LORD called to him from the mountain, saying, "Thus you shall say to the house of Jacob, and tell the children of Israel:

nkjv@Exodus:19:4 @ "You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to Myself.

nkjv@Exodus:19:5 @ Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant, then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine.

nkjv@Exodus:19:6 @ And you shall be to Me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.' These are the words which you shall speak to the children of Israel."

nkjv@Exodus:19:7 @ So Moses came and called for the elders of the people, and laid before them all these words which the LORD commanded him.

nkjv@Exodus:19:8 @ Then all the people answered together and said, "All that the LORD has spoken we will do." So Moses brought back the words of the people to the LORD.

nkjv@Exodus:19:9 @ And the LORD said to Moses, "Behold, I come to you in the thick cloud, that the people may hear when I speak with you, and believe you forever." So Moses told the words of the people to the LORD.

nkjv@Exodus:19:10 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go to the people and consecrate them today and tomorrow, and let them wash their clothes.

nkjv@Exodus:19:11 @ And let them be ready for the third day. For on the third day the LORD will come down upon Mount Sinai in the sight of all the people.

nkjv@Exodus:19:13 @ Not a hand shall touch him, but he shall surely be stoned or shot with an arrow; whether man or beast, he shall not live.' When the trumpet sounds long, they shall come near the mountain."

nkjv@Exodus:19:14 @ So Moses went down from the mountain to the people and sanctified the people, and they washed their clothes.

nkjv@Exodus:19:15 @ And he said to the people, "Be ready for the third day; do not come near your wives."

nkjv@Exodus:19:16 @ Then it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were thunderings and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain; and the sound of the trumpet was very loud, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled.

nkjv@Exodus:19:17 @ And Moses brought the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain.

nkjv@Exodus:19:18 @ Now Mount Sinai was completely in smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire. Its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.

nkjv@Exodus:19:19 @ And when the blast of the trumpet sounded long and became louder and louder, Moses spoke, and God answered him by voice.

nkjv@Exodus:19:20 @ Then the LORD came down upon Mount Sinai, on the top of the mountain. And the LORD called Moses to the top of the mountain, and Moses went up.

nkjv@Exodus:19:21 @ And the LORD said to Moses, "Go down and warn the people, lest they break through to gaze at the LORD, and many of them perish.

nkjv@Exodus:19:23 @ But Moses said to the LORD, "The people cannot come up to Mount Sinai; for You warned us, saying, "Set bounds around the mountain and consecrate it."'

nkjv@Exodus:19:24 @ Then the LORD said to him, "Away! Get down and then come up, you and Aaron with you. But do not let the priests and the people break through to come up to the LORD, lest He break out against them."

nkjv@Exodus:19:25 @ So Moses went down to the people and spoke to them.

nkjv@Exodus:20:1 @ And God spoke all these words, saying:

nkjv@Exodus:20:2 @ "I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

nkjv@Exodus:20:5 @ you shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me,

nkjv@Exodus:20:6 @ but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:2 @ And he said to Aaron, "Take for yourself a young bull as a sin offering and a ram as a burnt offering, without blemish, and offer them before the LORD.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:3 @ And to the children of Israel you shall speak, saying, "Take a kid of the goats as a sin offering, and a calf and a lamb, both of the first year, without blemish, as a burnt offering,

nkjv@Leviticus:9:4 @ also a bull and a ram as peace offerings, to sacrifice before the LORD, and a grain offering mixed with oil; for today the LORD will appear to you."'

nkjv@Leviticus:9:5 @ So they brought what Moses commanded before the tabernacle of meeting. And all the congregation drew near and stood before the LORD.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:6 @ Then Moses said, "This is the thing which the LORD commanded you to do, and the glory of the LORD will appear to you."

nkjv@Leviticus:9:7 @ And Moses said to Aaron, "Go to the altar, offer your sin offering and your burnt offering, and make atonement for yourself and for the people. Offer the offering of the people, and make atonement for them, as the LORD commanded."

nkjv@Leviticus:9:8 @ Aaron therefore went to the altar and killed the calf of the sin offering, which was for himself.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:9 @ Then the sons of Aaron brought the blood to him. And he dipped his finger in the blood, put it on the horns of the altar, and poured the blood at the base of the altar.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:10 @ But the fat, the kidneys, and the fatty lobe from the liver of the sin offering he burned on the altar, as the LORD had commanded Moses.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:11 @ The flesh and the hide he burned with fire outside the camp.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:12 @ And he killed the burnt offering; and Aaron's sons presented to him the blood, which he sprinkled all around on the altar.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:13 @ Then they presented the burnt offering to him, with its pieces and head, and he burned them on the altar.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:14 @ And he washed the entrails and the legs, and burned them with the burnt offering on the altar.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:15 @ Then he brought the people's offering, and took the goat, which was the sin offering for the people, and killed it and offered it for sin, like the first one.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:16 @ And he brought the burnt offering and offered it according to the prescribed manner.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:17 @ Then he brought the grain offering, took a handful of it, and burned it on the altar, besides the burnt sacrifice of the morning.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:18 @ He also killed the bull and the ram as sacrifices of peace offerings, which were for the people. And Aaron's sons presented to him the blood, which he sprinkled all around on the altar,

nkjv@Leviticus:9:19 @ and the fat from the bull and the ram--the fatty tail, what covers the entrails and the kidneys, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver;

nkjv@Leviticus:9:20 @ and they put the fat on the breasts. Then he burned the fat on the altar;

nkjv@Leviticus:9:21 @ but the breasts and the right thigh Aaron waved as a wave offering before the LORD, as Moses had commanded.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:22 @ Then Aaron lifted his hand toward the people, blessed them, and came down from offering the sin offering, the burnt offering, and peace offerings.

nkjv@Leviticus:9:23 @ And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of meeting, and came out and blessed the people. Then the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people,

nkjv@Leviticus:9:24 @ and fire came out from before the LORD and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar. When all the people saw it, they shouted and fell on their faces.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:1 @ Then Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, put incense on it, and offered profane fire before the LORD, which He had not commanded them.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:2 @ So fire went out from the LORD and devoured them, and they died before the LORD.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:3 @ And Moses said to Aaron, "This is what the LORD spoke, saying: "By those who come near Me I must be regarded as holy; And before all the people I must be glorified."' So Aaron held his peace.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:4 @ Then Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, "Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp."

nkjv@Leviticus:10:5 @ So they went near and carried them by their tunics out of the camp, as Moses had said.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:6 @ And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons, "Do not uncover your heads nor tear your clothes, lest you die, and wrath come upon all the people. But let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD has kindled.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:7 @ You shall not go out from the door of the tabernacle of meeting, lest you die, for the anointing oil of the LORD is upon you." And they did according to the word of Moses.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:11 @ and that you may teach the children of Israel all the statutes which the LORD has spoken to them by the hand of Moses."

nkjv@Leviticus:10:12 @ And Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and Ithamar, his sons who were left: "Take the grain offering that remains of the offerings made by fire to the LORD, and eat it without leaven beside the altar; for it is most holy.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:13 @ You shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your due and your sons' due, of the sacrifices made by fire to the LORD; for so I have been commanded.

nkjv@Leviticus:10:16 @ Then Moses made careful inquiry about the goat of the sin offering, and there it was--burned up. And he was angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,

nkjv@Leviticus:10:17 @ "Why have you not eaten the sin offering in a holy place, since it is most holy, and God has given it to you to bear the guilt of the congregation, to make atonement for them before the LORD?

nkjv@Leviticus:10:18 @ See! Its blood was not brought inside the holy place; indeed you should have eaten it in a holy place, as I commanded."

nkjv@Numbers:8:1 @ And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:

nkjv@Numbers:8:2 @ "Speak to Aaron, and say to him, "When you arrange the lamps, the seven lamps shall give light in front of the lampstand."'

nkjv@Numbers:8:3 @ And Aaron did so; he arranged the lamps to face toward the front of the lampstand, as the LORD commanded Moses.

nkjv@Numbers:8:4 @ Now this workmanship of the lampstand was hammered gold; from its shaft to its flowers it was hammered work. According to the pattern which the LORD had shown Moses, so he made the lampstand.

nkjv@Numbers:8:6 @ "Take the Levites from among the children of Israel and cleanse them ceremonially.

nkjv@Numbers:8:7 @ Thus you shall do to them to cleanse them: Sprinkle water of purification on them, and let them shave all their body, and let them wash their clothes, and so make themselves clean.

nkjv@Numbers:8:8 @ Then let them take a young bull with its grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil, and you shall take another young bull as a sin offering.

nkjv@Numbers:8:9 @ And you shall bring the Levites before the tabernacle of meeting, and you shall gather together the whole congregation of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:8:10 @ So you shall bring the Levites before the LORD, and the children of Israel shall lay their hands on the Levites;

nkjv@Numbers:8:11 @ and Aaron shall offer the Levites before the LORD like a wave offering from the children of Israel, that they may perform the work of the LORD.

nkjv@Numbers:8:12 @ Then the Levites shall lay their hands on the heads of the young bulls, and you shall offer one as a sin offering and the other as a burnt offering to the LORD, to make atonement for the Levites.

nkjv@Numbers:8:13 @ "And you shall stand the Levites before Aaron and his sons, and then offer them like a wave offering to the LORD.

nkjv@Numbers:8:14 @ Thus you shall separate the Levites from among the children of Israel, and the Levites shall be Mine.

nkjv@Numbers:8:15 @ After that the Levites shall go in to service the tabernacle of meeting. So you shall cleanse them and offer them like a wave offering.

nkjv@Numbers:8:17 @ For all the firstborn among the children of Israel are Mine, both man and beast; on the day that I struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt I sanctified them to Myself.

nkjv@Numbers:8:19 @ And I have given the Levites as a gift to Aaron and his sons from among the children of Israel, to do the work for the children of Israel in the tabernacle of meeting, and to make atonement for the children of Israel, that there be no plague among the children of Israel when the children of Israel come near the sanctuary."

nkjv@Numbers:8:20 @ Thus Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel did to the Levites; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so the children of Israel did to them.

nkjv@Numbers:8:21 @ And the Levites purified themselves and washed their clothes; then Aaron presented them like a wave offering before the LORD, and Aaron made atonement for them to cleanse them.

nkjv@Numbers:8:22 @ After that the Levites went in to do their work in the tabernacle of meeting before Aaron and his sons; as the LORD commanded Moses concerning the Levites, so they did to them.

nkjv@Numbers:8:24 @ "This is what pertains to the Levites: From twenty-five years old and above one may enter to perform service in the work of the tabernacle of meeting;

nkjv@Numbers:8:25 @ and at the age of fifty years they must cease performing this work, and shall work no more.

nkjv@Numbers:9:1 @ Now the LORD spoke to Moses in the Wilderness of Sinai, in the first month of the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying:

nkjv@Numbers:9:3 @ On the fourteenth day of this month, at twilight, you shall keep it at its appointed time. According to all its rites and ceremonies you shall keep it."

nkjv@Numbers:9:5 @ And they kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month, at twilight, in the Wilderness of Sinai; according to all that the LORD commanded Moses, so the children of Israel did.

nkjv@Numbers:9:6 @ Now there were certain men who were defiled by a human corpse, so that they could not keep the Passover on that day; and they came before Moses and Aaron that day.

nkjv@Numbers:9:7 @ And those men said to him, "We became defiled by a human corpse. Why are we kept from presenting the offering of the LORD at its appointed time among the children of Israel?"

nkjv@Numbers:9:8 @ And Moses said to them, "Stand still, that I may hear what the LORD will command concerning you."

nkjv@Numbers:9:11 @ On the fourteenth day of the second month, at twilight, they may keep it. They shall eat it with unleavened bread and bitter herbs.

nkjv@Numbers:9:13 @ But the man who is clean and is not on a journey, and ceases to keep the Passover, that same person shall be cut off from among his people, because he did not bring the offering of the LORD at its appointed time; that man shall bear his sin.

nkjv@Numbers:9:14 @ "And if a stranger dwells among you, and would keep the LORD's Passover, he must do so according to the rite of the Passover and according to its ceremony; you shall have one ordinance, both for the stranger and the native of the land."'

nkjv@Numbers:9:16 @ So it was always: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night.

nkjv@Numbers:9:17 @ Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, after that the children of Israel would journey; and in the place where the cloud settled, there the children of Israel would pitch their tents.

nkjv@Numbers:9:18 @ At the command of the LORD the children of Israel would journey, and at the command of the LORD they would camp; as long as the cloud stayed above the tabernacle they remained encamped.

nkjv@Numbers:9:19 @ Even when the cloud continued long, many days above the tabernacle, the children of Israel kept the charge of the LORD and did not journey.

nkjv@Numbers:9:20 @ So it was, when the cloud was above the tabernacle a few days: according to the command of the LORD they would remain encamped, and according to the command of the LORD they would journey.

nkjv@Numbers:9:22 @ Whether it was two days, a month, or a year that the cloud remained above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would remain encamped and not journey; but when it was taken up, they would journey.

nkjv@Numbers:9:23 @ At the command of the LORD they remained encamped, and at the command of the LORD they journeyed; they kept the charge of the LORD, at the command of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

nkjv@Numbers:10:1 @ And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:

nkjv@Numbers:10:2 @ "Make two silver trumpets for yourself; you shall make them of hammered work; you shall use them for calling the congregation and for directing the movement of the camps.

nkjv@Numbers:10:7 @ And when the assembly is to be gathered together, you shall blow, but not sound the advance.

nkjv@Numbers:10:8 @ The sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets; and these shall be to you as an ordinance forever throughout your generations.

nkjv@Numbers:10:9 @ "When you go to war in your land against the enemy who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, and you will be remembered before the LORD your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.

nkjv@Numbers:10:10 @ Also in the day of your gladness, in your appointed feasts, and at the beginning of your months, you shall blow the trumpets over your burnt offerings and over the sacrifices of your peace offerings; and they shall be a memorial for you before your God: I am the LORD your God."

nkjv@Numbers:10:12 @ And the children of Israel set out from the Wilderness of Sinai on their journeys; then the cloud settled down in the Wilderness of Paran.

nkjv@Numbers:10:13 @ So they started out for the first time according to the command of the LORD by the hand of Moses.

nkjv@Numbers:10:14 @ The standard of the camp of the children of Judah set out first according to their armies; over their army was Nahshon the son of Amminadab.

nkjv@Numbers:10:16 @ And over the army of the tribe of the children of Zebulun was Eliab the son of Helon.

nkjv@Numbers:10:17 @ Then the tabernacle was taken down; and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set out, carrying the tabernacle.

nkjv@Numbers:10:18 @ And the standard of the camp of Reuben set out according to their armies; over their army was Elizur the son of Shedeur.

nkjv@Numbers:10:20 @ And over the army of the tribe of the children of Gad was Eliasaph the son of Deuel.

nkjv@Numbers:10:22 @ And the standard of the camp of the children of Ephraim set out according to their armies; over their army was Elishama the son of Ammihud.

nkjv@Numbers:10:24 @ And over the army of the tribe of the children of Benjamin was Abidan the son of Gideoni.

nkjv@Numbers:10:25 @ Then the standard of the camp of the children of Dan (the rear guard of all the camps) set out according to their armies; over their army was Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.

nkjv@Numbers:10:27 @ And over the army of the tribe of the children of Naphtali was Ahira the son of Enan.

nkjv@Numbers:10:29 @ Now Moses said to Hobab the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law, "We are setting out for the place of which the LORD said, "I will give it to you.' Come with us, and we will treat you well; for the LORD has promised good things to Israel."

nkjv@Numbers:10:30 @ And he said to him, "I will not go, but I will depart to my own land and to my relatives."

nkjv@Numbers:10:31 @ So Moses said, "Please do not leave, inasmuch as you know how we are to camp in the wilderness, and you can be our eyes.

nkjv@Numbers:10:32 @ And it shall be, if you go with us--indeed it shall be--that whatever good the LORD will do to us, the same we will do to you."

nkjv@Numbers:10:33 @ So they departed from the mountain of the LORD on a journey of three days; and the ark of the covenant of the LORD went before them for the three days' journey, to search out a resting place for them.

nkjv@Numbers:10:34 @ And the cloud of the LORD was above them by day when they went out from the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:10:35 @ So it was, whenever the ark set out, that Moses said: "Rise up, O LORD! Let Your enemies be scattered, And let those who hate You flee before You."

nkjv@Numbers:10:36 @ And when it rested, he said: "Return, O LORD, To the many thousands of Israel."

nkjv@Numbers:11:1 @ Now when the people complained, it displeased the LORD; for the LORD heard it, and His anger was aroused. So the fire of the LORD burned among them, and consumed some in the outskirts of the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:2 @ Then the people cried out to Moses, and when Moses prayed to the LORD, the fire was quenched.

nkjv@Numbers:11:4 @ Now the mixed multitude who were among them yielded to intense craving; so the children of Israel also wept again and said: "Who will give us meat to eat?

nkjv@Numbers:11:5 @ We remember the fish which we ate freely in Egypt, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic;

nkjv@Numbers:11:7 @ Now the manna was like coriander seed, and its color like the color of bdellium.

nkjv@Numbers:11:8 @ The people went about and gathered it, ground it on millstones or beat it in the mortar, cooked it in pans, and made cakes of it; and its taste was like the taste of pastry prepared with oil.

nkjv@Numbers:11:9 @ And when the dew fell on the camp in the night, the manna fell on it.

nkjv@Numbers:11:10 @ Then Moses heard the people weeping throughout their families, everyone at the door of his tent; and the anger of the LORD was greatly aroused; Moses also was displeased.

nkjv@Numbers:11:11 @ So Moses said to the LORD, "Why have You afflicted Your servant? And why have I not found favor in Your sight, that You have laid the burden of all these people on me?

nkjv@Numbers:11:12 @ Did I conceive all these people? Did I beget them, that You should say to me, "Carry them in your bosom, as a guardian carries a nursing child,' to the land which You swore to their fathers?

nkjv@Numbers:11:15 @ If You treat me like this, please kill me here and now--if I have found favor in Your sight--and do not let me see my wretchedness!"

nkjv@Numbers:11:16 @ So the LORD said to Moses: "Gather to Me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom you know to be the elders of the people and officers over them; bring them to the tabernacle of meeting, that they may stand there with you.

nkjv@Numbers:11:17 @ Then I will come down and talk with you there. I will take of the Spirit that is upon you and will put the same upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with you, that you may not bear it yourself alone.

nkjv@Numbers:11:18 @ Then you shall say to the people, "Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, and you shall eat meat; for you have wept in the hearing of the LORD, saying, "Who will give us meat to eat? For it was well with us in Egypt." Therefore the LORD will give you meat, and you shall eat.

nkjv@Numbers:11:20 @ but for a whole month, until it comes out of your nostrils and becomes loathsome to you, because you have despised the LORD who is among you, and have wept before Him, saying, "Why did we ever come up out of Egypt?""'

nkjv@Numbers:11:21 @ And Moses said, "The people whom I am among are six hundred thousand men on foot; yet You have said, "I will give them meat, that they may eat for a whole month.'

nkjv@Numbers:11:22 @ Shall flocks and herds be slaughtered for them, to provide enough for them? Or shall all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them, to provide enough for them?"

nkjv@Numbers:11:23 @ And the LORD said to Moses, "Has the LORD's arm been shortened? Now you shall see whether what I say will happen to you or not."

nkjv@Numbers:11:24 @ So Moses went out and told the people the words of the LORD, and he gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people and placed them around the tabernacle.

nkjv@Numbers:11:25 @ Then the LORD came down in the cloud, and spoke to him, and took of the Spirit that was upon him, and placed the same upon the seventy elders; and it happened, when the Spirit rested upon them, that they prophesied, although they never did so again.

nkjv@Numbers:11:26 @ But two men had remained in the camp: the name of one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad. And the Spirit rested upon them. Now they were among those listed, but who had not gone out to the tabernacle; yet they prophesied in the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:27 @ And a young man ran and told Moses, and said, "Eldad and Medad are prophesying in the camp."

nkjv@Numbers:11:28 @ So Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' assistant, one of his choice men, answered and said, "Moses my lord, forbid them!"

nkjv@Numbers:11:29 @ Then Moses said to him, "Are you zealous for my sake? Oh, that all the LORD's people were prophets and that the LORD would put His Spirit upon them!"

nkjv@Numbers:11:30 @ And Moses returned to the camp, he and the elders of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:11:31 @ Now a wind went out from the LORD, and it brought quail from the sea and left them fluttering near the camp, about a day's journey on this side and about a day's journey on the other side, all around the camp, and about two cubits above the surface of the ground.

nkjv@Numbers:11:32 @ And the people stayed up all that day, all night, and all the next day, and gathered the quail (he who gathered least gathered ten homers); and they spread them out for themselves all around the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:11:33 @ But while the meat was still between their teeth, before it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was aroused against the people, and the LORD struck the people with a very great plague.

nkjv@Numbers:11:35 @ From Kibroth Hattaavah the people moved to Hazeroth, and camped at Hazeroth.

nkjv@Numbers:12:1 @ Then Miriam and Aaron spoke against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married; for he had married an Ethiopian woman.

nkjv@Numbers:12:2 @ So they said, "Has the LORD indeed spoken only through Moses? Has He not spoken through us also?" And the LORD heard it.

nkjv@Numbers:12:4 @ Suddenly the LORD said to Moses, Aaron, and Miriam, "Come out, you three, to the tabernacle of meeting!" So the three came out.

nkjv@Numbers:12:5 @ Then the LORD came down in the pillar of cloud and stood in the door of the tabernacle, and called Aaron and Miriam. And they both went forward.

nkjv@Numbers:12:8 @ I speak with him face to face, Even plainly, and not in dark sayings; And he sees the form of the LORD. Why then were you not afraid To speak against My servant Moses?"

nkjv@Numbers:12:9 @ So the anger of the LORD was aroused against them, and He departed.

nkjv@Numbers:12:10 @ And when the cloud departed from above the tabernacle, suddenly Miriam became leprous, as white as snow. Then Aaron turned toward Miriam, and there she was, a leper.

nkjv@Numbers:12:11 @ So Aaron said to Moses, "Oh, my lord! Please do not lay this sin on us, in which we have done foolishly and in which we have sinned.

nkjv@Numbers:12:14 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "If her father had but spit in her face, would she not be shamed seven days? Let her be shut out of the camp seven days, and afterward she may be received again."

nkjv@Numbers:12:15 @ So Miriam was shut out of the camp seven days, and the people did not journey till Miriam was brought in again.

nkjv@Numbers:12:16 @ And afterward the people moved from Hazeroth and camped in the Wilderness of Paran.

nkjv@Numbers:13:1 @ And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

nkjv@Numbers:13:2 @ "Send men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the children of Israel; from each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a leader among them."

nkjv@Numbers:13:3 @ So Moses sent them from the Wilderness of Paran according to the command of the LORD, all of them men who were heads of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:13:16 @ These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called Hoshea the son of Nun, Joshua.

nkjv@Numbers:13:17 @ Then Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said to them, "Go up this way into the South, and go up to the mountains,

nkjv@Numbers:13:18 @ and see what the land is like: whether the people who dwell in it are strong or weak, few or many;

nkjv@Numbers:13:19 @ whether the land they dwell in is good or bad; whether the cities they inhabit are like camps or strongholds;

nkjv@Numbers:13:20 @ whether the land is rich or poor; and whether there are forests there or not. Be of good courage. And bring some of the fruit of the land." Now the time was the season of the first ripe grapes.

nkjv@Numbers:13:21 @ So they went up and spied out the land from the Wilderness of Zin as far as Rehob, near the entrance of Hamath.

nkjv@Numbers:13:22 @ And they went up through the South and came to Hebron; Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the descendants of Anak, were there. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

nkjv@Numbers:13:23 @ Then they came to the Valley of Eshcol, and there cut down a branch with one cluster of grapes; they carried it between two of them on a pole. They also brought some of the pomegranates and figs.

nkjv@Numbers:13:25 @ And they returned from spying out the land after forty days.

nkjv@Numbers:13:26 @ Now they departed and came back to Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel in the Wilderness of Paran, at Kadesh; they brought back word to them and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land.

nkjv@Numbers:13:27 @ Then they told him, and said: "We went to the land where you sent us. It truly flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit.

nkjv@Numbers:13:28 @ Nevertheless the people who dwell in the land are strong; the cities are fortified and very large; moreover we saw the descendants of Anak there.

nkjv@Numbers:13:29 @ The Amalekites dwell in the land of the South; the Hittites, the Jebusites, and the Amorites dwell in the mountains; and the Canaanites dwell by the sea and along the banks of the Jordan."

nkjv@Numbers:13:30 @ Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses, and said, "Let us go up at once and take possession, for we are well able to overcome it."

nkjv@Numbers:13:32 @ And they gave the children of Israel a bad report of the land which they had spied out, saying, "The land through which we have gone as spies is a land that devours its inhabitants, and all the people whom we saw in it are men of great stature.

nkjv@Numbers:13:33 @ There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight."

nkjv@Numbers:14:1 @ So all the congregation lifted up their voices and cried, and the people wept that night.

nkjv@Numbers:14:2 @ And all the children of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron, and the whole congregation said to them, "If only we had died in the land of Egypt! Or if only we had died in this wilderness!

nkjv@Numbers:14:3 @ Why has the LORD brought us to this land to fall by the sword, that our wives and children should become victims? Would it not be better for us to return to Egypt?"

nkjv@Numbers:14:4 @ So they said to one another, "Let us select a leader and return to Egypt."

nkjv@Numbers:14:5 @ Then Moses and Aaron fell on their faces before all the assembly of the congregation of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:14:6 @ But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were among those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes;

nkjv@Numbers:14:7 @ and they spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying: "The land we passed through to spy out is an exceedingly good land.

nkjv@Numbers:14:8 @ If the LORD delights in us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us, "a land which flows with milk and honey.'

nkjv@Numbers:14:9 @ Only do not rebel against the LORD, nor fear the people of the land, for they are our bread; their protection has departed from them, and the LORD is with us. Do not fear them."

nkjv@Numbers:14:10 @ And all the congregation said to stone them with stones. Now the glory of the LORD appeared in the tabernacle of meeting before all the children of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:14:11 @ Then the LORD said to Moses: "How long will these people reject Me? And how long will they not believe Me, with all the signs which I have performed among them?

nkjv@Numbers:14:12 @ I will strike them with the pestilence and disinherit them, and I will make of you a nation greater and mightier than they."

nkjv@Numbers:14:13 @ And Moses said to the LORD: "Then the Egyptians will hear it, for by Your might You brought these people up from among them,

nkjv@Numbers:16:44 @ And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying,

nkjv@Numbers:16:45 @ "Get away from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment." And they fell on their faces.

nkjv@Numbers:17:6 @ So Moses spoke to the children of Israel, and each of their leaders gave him a rod apiece, for each leader according to their fathers' houses, twelve rods; and the rod of Aaron was among their rods.

nkjv@Numbers:17:7 @ And Moses placed the rods before the LORD in the tabernacle of witness.

nkjv@Numbers:17:8 @ Now it came to pass on the next day that Moses went into the tabernacle of witness, and behold, the rod of Aaron, of the house of Levi, had sprouted and put forth buds, had produced blossoms and yielded ripe almonds.

nkjv@Numbers:17:9 @ Then Moses brought out all the rods from before the LORD to all the children of Israel; and they looked, and each man took his rod.

nkjv@Numbers:18:8 @ And the LORD spoke to Aaron: "Here, I Myself have also given you charge of My heave offerings, all the holy gifts of the children of Israel; I have given them as a portion to you and your sons, as an ordinance forever.

nkjv@Numbers:18:9 @ This shall be yours of the most holy things reserved from the fire: every offering of theirs, every grain offering and every sin offering and every trespass offering which they render to Me, shall be most holy for you and your sons.

nkjv@Numbers:20:28 @ Moses stripped Aaron of his garments and put them on Eleazar his son; and Aaron died there on the top of the mountain. Then Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain.

nkjv@Numbers:21:1 @ The king of Arad, the Canaanite, who dwelt in the South, heard that Israel was coming on the road to Atharim. Then he fought against Israel and took some of them prisoners.

nkjv@Numbers:21:2 @ So Israel made a vow to the LORD, and said, "If You will indeed deliver this people into my hand, then I will utterly destroy their cities."

nkjv@Numbers:21:3 @ And the LORD listened to the voice of Israel and delivered up the Canaanites, and they utterly destroyed them and their cities. So the name of that place was called Hormah.

nkjv@Numbers:21:4 @ Then they journeyed from Mount Hor by the Way of the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom; and the soul of the people became very discouraged on the way.

nkjv@Numbers:21:5 @ And the people spoke against God and against Moses: "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water, and our soul loathes this worthless bread."

nkjv@Numbers:21:6 @ So the LORD sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and many of the people of Israel died.

nkjv@Numbers:21:7 @ Therefore the people came to Moses, and said, "We have sinned, for we have spoken against the LORD and against you; pray to the LORD that He take away the serpents from us." So Moses prayed for the people.

nkjv@Numbers:21:8 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live."

nkjv@Numbers:21:9 @ So Moses made a bronze serpent, and put it on a pole; and so it was, if a serpent had bitten anyone, when he looked at the bronze serpent, he lived.

nkjv@Numbers:21:10 @ Now the children of Israel moved on and camped in Oboth.

nkjv@Numbers:21:11 @ And they journeyed from Oboth and camped at Ije Abarim, in the wilderness which is east of Moab, toward the sunrise.

nkjv@Numbers:21:12 @ From there they moved and camped in the Valley of Zered.

nkjv@Numbers:21:13 @ From there they moved and camped on the other side of the Arnon, which is in the wilderness that extends from the border of the Amorites; for the Arnon is the border of Moab, between Moab and the Amorites.

nkjv@Numbers:21:15 @ And the slope of the brooks That reaches to the dwelling of Ar, And lies on the border of Moab."

nkjv@Numbers:21:16 @ From there they went to Beer, which is the well where the LORD said to Moses, "Gather the people together, and I will give them water."

nkjv@Numbers:21:18 @ The well the leaders sank, Dug by the nation's nobles, By the lawgiver, with their staves." And from the wilderness they went to Mattanah,

nkjv@Numbers:21:20 @ and from Bamoth, in the valley that is in the country of Moab, to the top of Pisgah which looks down on the wasteland.

nkjv@Numbers:21:22 @ "Let me pass through your land. We will not turn aside into fields or vineyards; we will not drink water from wells. We will go by the King's Highway until we have passed through your territory."

nkjv@Numbers:21:23 @ But Sihon would not allow Israel to pass through his territory. So Sihon gathered all his people together and went out against Israel in the wilderness, and he came to Jahaz and fought against Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:21:24 @ Then Israel defeated him with the edge of the sword, and took possession of his land from the Arnon to the Jabbok, as far as the people of Ammon; for the border of the people of Ammon was fortified.

nkjv@Numbers:21:25 @ So Israel took all these cities, and Israel dwelt in all the cities of the Amorites, in Heshbon and in all its villages.

nkjv@Numbers:21:26 @ For Heshbon was the city of Sihon king of the Amorites, who had fought against the former king of Moab, and had taken all his land from his hand as far as the Arnon.

nkjv@Numbers:21:29 @ Woe to you, Moab! You have perished, O people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, And his daughters into captivity, To Sihon king of the Amorites.

nkjv@Numbers:21:31 @ Thus Israel dwelt in the land of the Amorites.

nkjv@Numbers:21:32 @ Then Moses sent to spy out Jazer; and they took its villages and drove out the Amorites who were there.

nkjv@Numbers:21:33 @ And they turned and went up by the way to Bashan. So Og king of Bashan went out against them, he and all his people, to battle at Edrei.

nkjv@Numbers:21:34 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Do not fear him, for I have delivered him into your hand, with all his people and his land; and you shall do to him as you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon."

nkjv@Numbers:21:35 @ So they defeated him, his sons, and all his people, until there was no survivor left him; and they took possession of his land.

nkjv@Numbers:22:1 @ Then the children of Israel moved, and camped in the plains of Moab on the side of the Jordan across from Jericho.

nkjv@Numbers:22:3 @ And Moab was exceedingly afraid of the people because they were many, and Moab was sick with dread because of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:22:4 @ So Moab said to the elders of Midian, "Now this company will lick up everything around us, as an ox licks up the grass of the field." And Balak the son of Zippor was king of the Moabites at that time.

nkjv@Numbers:22:5 @ Then he sent messengers to Balaam the son of Beor at Pethor, which is near the River in the land of the sons of his people, to call him, saying: "Look, a people has come from Egypt. See, they cover the face of the earth, and are settling next to me!

nkjv@Numbers:22:6 @ Therefore please come at once, curse this people for me, for they are too mighty for me. Perhaps I shall be able to defeat them and drive them out of the land, for I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed."

nkjv@Numbers:22:7 @ So the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian departed with the diviner's fee in their hand, and they came to Balaam and spoke to him the words of Balak.

nkjv@Numbers:22:8 @ And he said to them, "Lodge here tonight, and I will bring back word to you, as the LORD speaks to me." So the princes of Moab stayed with Balaam.

nkjv@Numbers:22:9 @ Then God came to Balaam and said, "Who are these men with you?"

nkjv@Numbers:22:11 @ "Look, a people has come out of Egypt, and they cover the face of the earth. Come now, curse them for me; perhaps I shall be able to overpower them and drive them out."'

nkjv@Numbers:22:12 @ And God said to Balaam, "You shall not go with them; you shall not curse the people, for they are blessed."

nkjv@Numbers:22:13 @ So Balaam rose in the morning and said to the princes of Balak, "Go back to your land, for the LORD has refused to give me permission to go with you."

nkjv@Numbers:22:14 @ And the princes of Moab rose and went to Balak, and said, "Balaam refuses to come with us."

nkjv@Numbers:22:15 @ Then Balak again sent princes, more numerous and more honorable than they.

nkjv@Numbers:22:16 @ And they came to Balaam and said to him, "Thus says Balak the son of Zippor: "Please let nothing hinder you from coming to me;

nkjv@Numbers:22:17 @ for I will certainly honor you greatly, and I will do whatever you say to me. Therefore please come, curse this people for me."'

nkjv@Numbers:22:18 @ Then Balaam answered and said to the servants of Balak, "Though Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not go beyond the word of the LORD my God, to do less or more.

nkjv@Numbers:22:20 @ And God came to Balaam at night and said to him, "If the men come to call you, rise and go with them; but only the word which I speak to you--that you shall do."

nkjv@Numbers:22:21 @ So Balaam rose in the morning, saddled his donkey, and went with the princes of Moab.

nkjv@Numbers:22:22 @ Then God's anger was aroused because he went, and the Angel of the LORD took His stand in the way as an adversary against him. And he was riding on his donkey, and his two servants were with him.

nkjv@Numbers:22:23 @ Now the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand, and the donkey turned aside out of the way and went into the field. So Balaam struck the donkey to turn her back onto the road.

nkjv@Numbers:22:24 @ Then the Angel of the LORD stood in a narrow path between the vineyards, with a wall on this side and a wall on that side.

nkjv@Numbers:22:25 @ And when the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD, she pushed herself against the wall and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall; so he struck her again.

nkjv@Numbers:22:26 @ Then the Angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow place where there was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.

nkjv@Numbers:22:27 @ And when the donkey saw the Angel of the LORD, she lay down under Balaam; so Balaam's anger was aroused, and he struck the donkey with his staff.

nkjv@Numbers:22:28 @ Then the LORD opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, "What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?"

nkjv@Numbers:22:29 @ And Balaam said to the donkey, "Because you have abused me. I wish there were a sword in my hand, for now I would kill you!"

nkjv@Numbers:22:30 @ So the donkey said to Balaam, "Am I not your donkey on which you have ridden, ever since I became yours, to this day? Was I ever disposed to do this to you?" And he said, "No."

nkjv@Numbers:22:31 @ Then the LORD opened Balaam's eyes, and he saw the Angel of the LORD standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand; and he bowed his head and fell flat on his face.

nkjv@Numbers:22:32 @ And the Angel of the LORD said to him, "Why have you struck your donkey these three times? Behold, I have come out to stand against you, because your way is perverse before Me.

nkjv@Numbers:22:33 @ The donkey saw Me and turned aside from Me these three times. If she had not turned aside from Me, surely I would also have killed you by now, and let her live."

nkjv@Numbers:22:34 @ And Balaam said to the Angel of the LORD, "I have sinned, for I did not know You stood in the way against me. Now therefore, if it displeases You, I will turn back."

nkjv@Numbers:22:38 @ And Balaam said to Balak, "Look, I have come to you! Now, have I any power at all to say anything? The word that God puts in my mouth, that I must speak."

nkjv@Numbers:22:39 @ So Balaam went with Balak, and they came to Kirjath Huzoth.

nkjv@Numbers:22:40 @ Then Balak offered oxen and sheep, and he sent some to Balaam and to the princes who were with him.

nkjv@Numbers:22:41 @ So it was, the next day, that Balak took Balaam and brought him up to the high places of Baal, that from there he might observe the extent of the people.

nkjv@Numbers:23:1 @ Then Balaam said to Balak, "Build seven altars for me here, and prepare for me here seven bulls and seven rams."

nkjv@Numbers:23:2 @ And Balak did just as Balaam had spoken, and Balak and Balaam offered a bull and a ram on each altar.

nkjv@Numbers:23:3 @ Then Balaam said to Balak, "Stand by your burnt offering, and I will go; perhaps the LORD will come to meet me, and whatever He shows me I will tell you." So he went to a desolate height.

nkjv@Numbers:23:4 @ And God met Balaam, and he said to Him, "I have prepared the seven altars, and I have offered on each altar a bull and a ram."

nkjv@Numbers:23:5 @ Then the LORD put a word in Balaam's mouth, and said, "Return to Balak, and thus you shall speak."

nkjv@Numbers:23:6 @ So he returned to him, and there he was, standing by his burnt offering, he and all the princes of Moab.

nkjv@Numbers:23:7 @ And he took up his oracle and said: "Balak the king of Moab has brought me from Aram, From the mountains of the east. "Come, curse Jacob for me, And come, denounce Israel!'

nkjv@Numbers:23:8 @ "How shall I curse whom God has not cursed? And how shall I denounce whom the LORD has not denounced?

nkjv@Numbers:23:9 @ For from the top of the rocks I see him, And from the hills I behold him; There! A people dwelling alone, Not reckoning itself among the nations.

nkjv@Numbers:23:10 @ "Who can count the dust of Jacob, Or number one-fourth of Israel? Let me die the death of the righteous, And let my end be like his!"

nkjv@Numbers:23:11 @ Then Balak said to Balaam, "What have you done to me? I took you to curse my enemies, and look, you have blessed them bountifully!"

nkjv@Numbers:23:12 @ So he answered and said, "Must I not take heed to speak what the LORD has put in my mouth?"

nkjv@Numbers:23:13 @ Then Balak said to him, "Please come with me to another place from which you may see them; you shall see only the outer part of them, and shall not see them all; curse them for me from there."

nkjv@Numbers:23:14 @ So he brought him to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered a bull and a ram on each altar.

nkjv@Numbers:23:15 @ And he said to Balak, "Stand here by your burnt offering while I meet the LORD over there."

nkjv@Numbers:23:16 @ Then the LORD met Balaam, and put a word in his mouth, and said, "Go back to Balak, and thus you shall speak."

nkjv@Numbers:23:17 @ So he came to him, and there he was, standing by his burnt offering, and the princes of Moab were with him. And Balak said to him, "What has the LORD spoken?"

nkjv@Numbers:23:18 @ Then he took up his oracle and said: "Rise up, Balak, and hear! Listen to me, son of Zippor!

nkjv@Numbers:23:19 @ "God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?

nkjv@Numbers:23:20 @ Behold, I have received a command to bless; He has blessed, and I cannot reverse it.

nkjv@Numbers:23:21 @ "He has not observed iniquity in Jacob, Nor has He seen wickedness in Israel. The LORD his God is with him, And the shout of a King is among them.

nkjv@Numbers:23:23 @ "For there is no sorcery against Jacob, Nor any divination against Israel. It now must be said of Jacob And of Israel, "Oh, what God has done!'

nkjv@Numbers:23:24 @ Look, a people rises like a lioness, And lifts itself up like a lion; It shall not lie down until it devours the prey, And drinks the blood of the slain."

nkjv@Numbers:23:26 @ So Balaam answered and said to Balak, "Did I not tell you, saying, "All that the LORD speaks, that I must do'?"

nkjv@Numbers:23:28 @ So Balak took Balaam to the top of Peor, that overlooks the wasteland.

nkjv@Numbers:23:29 @ Then Balaam said to Balak, "Build for me here seven altars, and prepare for me here seven bulls and seven rams."

nkjv@Numbers:23:30 @ And Balak did as Balaam had said, and offered a bull and a ram on every altar.

nkjv@Numbers:24:2 @ And Balaam raised his eyes, and saw Israel encamped according to their tribes; and the Spirit of God came upon him.

nkjv@Numbers:24:3 @ Then he took up his oracle and said: "The utterance of Balaam the son of Beor, The utterance of the man whose eyes are opened,

nkjv@Numbers:24:7 @ He shall pour water from his buckets, And his seed shall be in many waters. "His king shall be higher than Agag, And his kingdom shall be exalted.

nkjv@Numbers:24:8 @ "God brings him out of Egypt; He has strength like a wild ox; He shall consume the nations, his enemies; He shall break their bones And pierce them with his arrows.

nkjv@Numbers:24:10 @ Then Balak's anger was aroused against Balaam, and he struck his hands together; and Balak said to Balaam, "I called you to curse my enemies, and look, you have bountifully blessed them these three times!

nkjv@Numbers:24:13 @ "If Balak were to give me his house full of silver and gold, I could not go beyond the word of the LORD, to do good or bad of my own will. What the LORD says, that I must speak'?

nkjv@Numbers:24:14 @ And now, indeed, I am going to my people. Come, I will advise you what this people will do to your people in the latter days."

nkjv@Numbers:24:15 @ So he took up his oracle and said: "The utterance of Balaam the son of Beor, And the utterance of the man whose eyes are opened;

nkjv@Numbers:24:16 @ The utterance of him who hears the words of God, And has the knowledge of the Most High, Who sees the vision of the Almighty, Who falls down, with eyes wide open:

nkjv@Numbers:24:19 @ Out of Jacob One shall have dominion, And destroy the remains of the city."

nkjv@Numbers:24:20 @ Then he looked on Amalek, and he took up his oracle and said: "Amalek was first among the nations, But shall be last until he perishes."

nkjv@Numbers:24:21 @ Then he looked on the Kenites, and he took up his oracle and said: "Firm is your dwelling place, And your nest is set in the rock;

nkjv@Numbers:24:23 @ Then he took up his oracle and said: "Alas! Who shall live when God does this?

nkjv@Numbers:24:24 @ But ships shall come from the coasts of Cyprus, And they shall afflict Asshur and afflict Eber, And so shall Amalek, until he perishes."

nkjv@Numbers:24:25 @ So Balaam rose and departed and returned to his place; Balak also went his way.

nkjv@Numbers:25:1 @ Now Israel remained in Acacia Grove, and the people began to commit harlotry with the women of Moab.

nkjv@Numbers:25:2 @ They invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate and bowed down to their gods.

nkjv@Numbers:25:3 @ So Israel was joined to Baal of Peor, and the anger of the LORD was aroused against Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:25:4 @ Then the LORD said to Moses, "Take all the leaders of the people and hang the offenders before the LORD, out in the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may turn away from Israel."

nkjv@Numbers:25:6 @ And indeed, one of the children of Israel came and presented to his brethren a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, who were weeping at the door of the tabernacle of meeting.

nkjv@Numbers:25:7 @ Now when Phinehas the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose from among the congregation and took a javelin in his hand;

nkjv@Numbers:25:8 @ and he went after the man of Israel into the tent and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stopped among the children of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:30:4 @ and her father hears her vow and the agreement by which she has bound herself, and her father holds his peace, then all her vows shall stand, and every agreement with which she has bound herself shall stand.

nkjv@Numbers:30:5 @ But if her father overrules her on the day that he hears, then none of her vows nor her agreements by which she has bound herself shall stand; and the LORD will release her, because her father overruled her.

nkjv@Numbers:30:7 @ and her husband hears it, and makes no response to her on the day that he hears, then her vows shall stand, and her agreements by which she bound herself shall stand.

nkjv@Numbers:30:8 @ But if her husband overrules her on the day that he hears it, he shall make void her vow which she took and what she uttered with her lips, by which she bound herself, and the LORD will release her.

nkjv@Numbers:30:9 @ "Also any vow of a widow or a divorced woman, by which she has bound herself, shall stand against her.

nkjv@Numbers:30:10 @ "If she vowed in her husband's house, or bound herself by an agreement with an oath,

nkjv@Numbers:30:12 @ But if her husband truly made them void on the day he heard them, then whatever proceeded from her lips concerning her vows or concerning the agreement binding her, it shall not stand; her husband has made them void, and the LORD will release her.

nkjv@Numbers:30:13 @ Every vow and every binding oath to afflict her soul, her husband may confirm it, or her husband may make it void.

nkjv@Numbers:30:14 @ Now if her husband makes no response whatever to her from day to day, then he confirms all her vows or all the agreements that bind her; he confirms them, because he made no response to her on the day that he heard them.

nkjv@Numbers:30:16 @ These are the statutes which the LORD commanded Moses, between a man and his wife, and between a father and his daughter in her youth in her father's house.

nkjv@Numbers:31:1 @ And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying:

nkjv@Numbers:31:3 @ So Moses spoke to the people, saying, "Arm some of yourselves for war, and let them go against the Midianites to take vengeance for the LORD on Midian.

nkjv@Numbers:31:4 @ A thousand from each tribe of all the tribes of Israel you shall send to the war."

nkjv@Numbers:31:5 @ So there were recruited from the divisions of Israel one thousand from each tribe, twelve thousand armed for war.

nkjv@Numbers:31:6 @ Then Moses sent them to the war, one thousand from each tribe; he sent them to the war with Phinehas the son of Eleazar the priest, with the holy articles and the signal trumpets in his hand.

nkjv@Numbers:31:7 @ And they warred against the Midianites, just as the LORD commanded Moses, and they killed all the males.

nkjv@Numbers:31:8 @ They killed the kings of Midian with the rest of those who were killed--Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the five kings of Midian. Balaam the son of Beor they also killed with the sword.

nkjv@Numbers:31:9 @ And the children of Israel took the women of Midian captive, with their little ones, and took as spoil all their cattle, all their flocks, and all their goods.

nkjv@Numbers:31:10 @ They also burned with fire all the cities where they dwelt, and all their forts.

nkjv@Numbers:31:11 @ And they took all the spoil and all the booty--of man and beast.

nkjv@Numbers:31:12 @ Then they brought the captives, the booty, and the spoil to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the congregation of the children of Israel, to the camp in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, across from Jericho.

nkjv@Numbers:31:13 @ And Moses, Eleazar the priest, and all the leaders of the congregation, went to meet them outside the camp.

nkjv@Numbers:31:14 @ But Moses was angry with the officers of the army, with the captains over thousands and captains over hundreds, who had come from the battle.

nkjv@Numbers:31:15 @ And Moses said to them: "Have you kept all the women alive?

nkjv@Numbers:31:16 @ Look, these women caused the children of Israel, through the counsel of Balaam, to trespass against the LORD in the incident of Peor, and there was a plague among the congregation of the LORD.

nkjv@Numbers:31:17 @ Now therefore, kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman who has known a man intimately.

nkjv@Numbers:31:19 @ And as for you, remain outside the camp seven days; whoever has killed any person, and whoever has touched any slain, purify yourselves and your captives on the third day and on the seventh day.

nkjv@Numbers:31:20 @ Purify every garment, everything made of leather, everything woven of goats' hair, and everything made of wood."

nkjv@Numbers:31:21 @ Then Eleazar the priest said to the men of war who had gone to the battle, "This is the ordinance of the law which the LORD commanded Moses:

nkjv@Numbers:31:22 @ "Only the gold, the silver, the bronze, the iron, the tin, and the lead,

nkjv@Numbers:31:23 @ everything that can endure fire, you shall put through the fire, and it shall be clean; and it shall be purified with the water of purification. But all that cannot endure fire you shall put through water.

nkjv@Numbers:31:24 @ And you shall wash your clothes on the seventh day and be clean, and afterward you may come into the camp."

nkjv@Numbers:31:26 @ "Count up the plunder that was taken--of man and beast--you and Eleazar the priest and the chief fathers of the congregation;

nkjv@Numbers:31:27 @ and divide the plunder into two parts, between those who took part in the war, who went out to battle, and all the congregation.

nkjv@Numbers:31:28 @ And levy a tribute for the LORD on the men of war who went out to battle: one of every five hundred of the persons, the cattle, the donkeys, and the sheep;

nkjv@Numbers:31:29 @ take it from their half, and give it to Eleazar the priest as a heave offering to the LORD.

nkjv@Numbers:31:30 @ And from the children of Israel's half you shall take one of every fifty, drawn from the persons, the cattle, the donkeys, and the sheep, from all the livestock, and give them to the Levites who keep charge of the tabernacle of the LORD."

nkjv@Numbers:31:31 @ So Moses and Eleazar the priest did as the LORD commanded Moses.

nkjv@Numbers:31:32 @ The booty remaining from the plunder, which the men of war had taken, was six hundred and seventy-five thousand sheep,

nkjv@Numbers:31:33 @ seventy-two thousand cattle,

nkjv@Numbers:31:34 @ sixty-one thousand donkeys,

nkjv@Numbers:31:35 @ and thirty-two thousand persons in all, of women who had not known a man intimately.

nkjv@Numbers:31:36 @ And the half, the portion for those who had gone out to war, was in number three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep;

nkjv@Numbers:31:37 @ and the LORD's tribute of the sheep was six hundred and seventy-five.

nkjv@Numbers:31:38 @ The cattle were thirty-six thousand, of which the LORD's tribute was seventy-two.

nkjv@Numbers:31:39 @ The donkeys were thirty thousand five hundred, of which the LORD's tribute was sixty-one.

nkjv@Numbers:31:40 @ The persons were sixteen thousand, of which the LORD's tribute was thirty-two persons.

nkjv@Numbers:31:41 @ So Moses gave the tribute which was the LORD's heave offering to Eleazar the priest, as the LORD commanded Moses.

nkjv@Numbers:31:42 @ And from the children of Israel's half, which Moses separated from the men who fought--

nkjv@Numbers:31:43 @ now the half belonging to the congregation was three hundred and thirty-seven thousand five hundred sheep,

nkjv@Numbers:31:44 @ thirty-six thousand cattle,

nkjv@Numbers:31:45 @ thirty thousand five hundred donkeys,

nkjv@Numbers:31:46 @ and sixteen thousand persons--

nkjv@Numbers:31:47 @ and from the children of Israel's half Moses took one of every fifty, drawn from man and beast, and gave them to the Levites, who kept charge of the tabernacle of the LORD, as the LORD commanded Moses.

nkjv@Numbers:31:48 @ Then the officers who were over thousands of the army, the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, came near to Moses;

nkjv@Numbers:31:49 @ and they said to Moses, "Your servants have taken a count of the men of war who are under our command, and not a man of us is missing.

nkjv@Numbers:31:50 @ Therefore we have brought an offering for the LORD, what every man found of ornaments of gold: armlets and bracelets and signet rings and earrings and necklaces, to make atonement for ourselves before the LORD."

nkjv@Numbers:31:51 @ So Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from them, all the fashioned ornaments.

nkjv@Numbers:31:52 @ And all the gold of the offering that they offered to the LORD, from the captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, was sixteen thousand seven hundred and fifty shekels.

nkjv@Numbers:31:54 @ And Moses and Eleazar the priest received the gold from the captains of thousands and of hundreds, and brought it into the tabernacle of meeting as a memorial for the children of Israel before the LORD.

nkjv@Numbers:32:1 @ Now the children of Reuben and the children of Gad had a very great multitude of livestock; and when they saw the land of Jazer and the land of Gilead, that indeed the region was a place for livestock,

nkjv@Numbers:32:2 @ the children of Gad and the children of Reuben came and spoke to Moses, to Eleazar the priest, and to the leaders of the congregation, saying,

nkjv@Numbers:32:3 @ "Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Shebam, Nebo, and Beon,

nkjv@Numbers:32:4 @ the country which the LORD defeated before the congregation of Israel, is a land for livestock, and your servants have livestock."

nkjv@Numbers:32:5 @ Therefore they said, "If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as a possession. Do not take us over the Jordan."

nkjv@Numbers:32:6 @ And Moses said to the children of Gad and to the children of Reuben: "Shall your brethren go to war while you sit here?

nkjv@Numbers:32:7 @ Now why will you discourage the heart of the children of Israel from going over into the land which the LORD has given them?

nkjv@Numbers:32:8 @ Thus your fathers did when I sent them away from Kadesh Barnea to see the land.

nkjv@Numbers:32:9 @ For when they went up to the Valley of Eshcol and saw the land, they discouraged the heart of the children of Israel, so that they did not go into the land which the LORD had given them.

nkjv@Numbers:32:10 @ So the LORD's anger was aroused on that day, and He swore an oath, saying,

nkjv@Numbers:32:11 @ "Surely none of the men who came up from Egypt, from twenty years old and above, shall see the land of which I swore to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because they have not wholly followed Me,

nkjv@Numbers:32:12 @ except Caleb the son of Jephunneh, the Kenizzite, and Joshua the son of Nun, for they have wholly followed the LORD.'

nkjv@Numbers:32:13 @ So the LORD's anger was aroused against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation that had done evil in the sight of the LORD was gone.

nkjv@Numbers:32:14 @ And look! You have risen in your fathers' place, a brood of sinful men, to increase still more the fierce anger of the LORD against Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:32:15 @ For if you turn away from following Him, He will once again leave them in the wilderness, and you will destroy all these people."

nkjv@Numbers:32:16 @ Then they came near to him and said: "We will build sheepfolds here for our livestock, and cities for our little ones,

nkjv@Numbers:32:17 @ but we ourselves will be armed, ready to go before the children of Israel until we have brought them to their place; and our little ones will dwell in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.

nkjv@Numbers:32:19 @ For we will not inherit with them on the other side of the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance has fallen to us on this eastern side of the Jordan."

nkjv@Numbers:32:21 @ and all your armed men cross over the Jordan before the LORD until He has driven out His enemies from before Him,

nkjv@Numbers:32:22 @ and the land is subdued before the LORD, then afterward you may return and be blameless before the LORD and before Israel; and this land shall be your possession before the LORD.

nkjv@Numbers:32:23 @ But if you do not do so, then take note, you have sinned against the LORD; and be sure your sin will find you out.

nkjv@Numbers:32:24 @ Build cities for your little ones and folds for your sheep, and do what has proceeded out of your mouth."

nkjv@Numbers:32:25 @ And the children of Gad and the children of Reuben spoke to Moses, saying: "Your servants will do as my lord commands.

nkjv@Numbers:32:26 @ Our little ones, our wives, our flocks, and all our livestock will be there in the cities of Gilead;

nkjv@Numbers:32:28 @ So Moses gave command concerning them to Eleazar the priest, to Joshua the son of Nun, and to the chief fathers of the tribes of the children of Israel.

nkjv@Numbers:32:29 @ And Moses said to them: "If the children of Gad and the children of Reuben cross over the Jordan with you, every man armed for battle before the LORD, and the land is subdued before you, then you shall give them the land of Gilead as a possession.

nkjv@Numbers:32:30 @ But if they do not cross over armed with you, they shall have possessions among you in the land of Canaan."

nkjv@Numbers:32:31 @ Then the children of Gad and the children of Reuben answered, saying: "As the LORD has said to your servants, so we will do.

nkjv@Numbers:32:32 @ We will cross over armed before the LORD into the land of Canaan, but the possession of our inheritance shall remain with us on this side of the Jordan."

nkjv@Numbers:32:33 @ So Moses gave to the children of Gad, to the children of Reuben, and to half the tribe of Manasseh the son of Joseph, the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land with its cities within the borders, the cities of the surrounding country.

nkjv@Numbers:32:34 @ And the children of Gad built Dibon and Ataroth and Aroer,

nkjv@Numbers:32:35 @ Atroth and Shophan and Jazer and Jogbehah,

nkjv@Numbers:32:36 @ Beth Nimrah and Beth Haran, fortified cities, and folds for sheep.

nkjv@Numbers:32:37 @ And the children of Reuben built Heshbon and Elealeh and Kirjathaim,

nkjv@Numbers:32:38 @ Nebo and Baal Meon (their names being changed) and Shibmah; and they gave other names to the cities which they built.

nkjv@Numbers:32:39 @ And the children of Machir the son of Manasseh went to Gilead and took it, and dispossessed the Amorites who were in it.

nkjv@Numbers:32:40 @ So Moses gave Gilead to Machir the son of Manasseh, and he dwelt in it.

nkjv@Numbers:32:41 @ Also Jair the son of Manasseh went and took its small towns, and called them Havoth Jair.

nkjv@Numbers:32:42 @ Then Nobah went and took Kenath and its villages, and he called it Nobah, after his own name.

nkjv@Numbers:33:1 @ These are the journeys of the children of Israel, who went out of the land of Egypt by their armies under the hand of Moses and Aaron.

nkjv@Numbers:33:2 @ Now Moses wrote down the starting points of their journeys at the command of the LORD. And these are their journeys according to their starting points:

nkjv@Numbers:33:6 @ They departed from Succoth and camped at Etham, which is on the edge of the wilderness.

nkjv@Numbers:33:7 @ They moved from Etham and turned back to Pi Hahiroth, which is east of Baal Zephon; and they camped near Migdol.

nkjv@Numbers:33:8 @ They departed from before Hahiroth and passed through the midst of the sea into the wilderness, went three days' journey in the Wilderness of Etham, and camped at Marah.

nkjv@Numbers:33:9 @ They moved from Marah and came to Elim. At Elim were twelve springs of water and seventy palm trees; so they camped there.

nkjv@Numbers:33:10 @ They moved from Elim and camped by the Red Sea.

nkjv@Numbers:33:11 @ They moved from the Red Sea and camped in the Wilderness of Sin.

nkjv@Numbers:33:12 @ They journeyed from the Wilderness of Sin and camped at Dophkah.

nkjv@Numbers:33:13 @ They departed from Dophkah and camped at Alush.

nkjv@Numbers:33:36 @ They moved from Ezion Geber and camped in the Wilderness of Zin, which is Kadesh.

nkjv@Numbers:33:37 @ They moved from Kadesh and camped at Mount Hor, on the boundary of the land of Edom.

nkjv@Numbers:33:38 @ Then Aaron the priest went up to Mount Hor at the command of the LORD, and died there in the fortieth year after the children of Israel had come out of the land of Egypt, on the first day of the fifth month.
