nkjv@Job:1:2 @ And seven sons and three daughters were born to him.

nkjv@Job:1:3 @ Also, his possessions were seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, five hundred female donkeys, and a very large household, so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the East.

nkjv@Job:1:4 @ And his sons would go and feast in their houses, each on his appointed day, and would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

nkjv@Job:1:5 @ So it was, when the days of feasting had run their course, that Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned and cursed God in their hearts." Thus Job did regularly.

nkjv@Job:1:6 @ Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.

nkjv@Job:1:8 @ Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil?"

nkjv@Job:1:12 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only do not lay a hand on his person." So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD.

nkjv@Job:1:13 @ Now there was a day when his sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their oldest brother's house;

nkjv@Job:1:14 @ and a messenger came to Job and said, "The oxen were plowing and the donkeys feeding beside them,

nkjv@Job:1:15 @ when the Sabeans raided them and took them away--indeed they have killed the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:16 @ While he was still speaking, another also came and said, "The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:19 @ and suddenly a great wind came from across the wilderness and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell on the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you!"

nkjv@Job:1:20 @ Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped.

nkjv@Job:1:21 @ And he said: "Naked I came from my mother's womb, And naked shall I return there. The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away; Blessed be the name of the LORD."

nkjv@Job:2:1 @ Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.

nkjv@Job:2:3 @ Then the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered My servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, one who fears God and shuns evil? And still he holds fast to his integrity, although you incited Me against him, to destroy him without cause."

nkjv@Job:2:7 @ So Satan went out from the presence of the LORD, and struck Job with painful boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.

nkjv@Job:2:9 @ Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast to your integrity? Curse God and die!"

nkjv@Job:2:10 @ But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women speaks. Shall we indeed accept good from God, and shall we not accept adversity?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

nkjv@Job:2:11 @ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this adversity that had come upon him, each one came from his own place--Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite. For they had made an appointment together to come and mourn with him, and to comfort him.

nkjv@Job:2:12 @ And when they raised their eyes from afar, and did not recognize him, they lifted their voices and wept; and each one tore his robe and sprinkled dust on his head toward heaven.

nkjv@Job:2:13 @ So they sat down with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his grief was very great.

nkjv@Job:3:1 @ After this Job opened his mouth and cursed the day of his birth.

nkjv@Job:3:7 @ Oh, may that night be barren! May no joyful shout come into it!

nkjv@Job:3:11 @ "Why did I not die at birth? Why did I not perish when I came from the womb?

nkjv@Job:3:13 @ For now I would have lain still and been quiet, I would have been asleep; Then I would have been at rest

nkjv@Job:3:16 @ Or why was I not hidden like a stillborn child, Like infants who never saw light?

nkjv@Job:3:20 @ "Why is light given to him who is in misery, And life to the bitter of soul,

nkjv@Job:3:21 @ Who long for death, but it does not come, And search for it more than hidden treasures;

nkjv@Job:3:22 @ Who rejoice exceedingly, And are glad when they can find the grave?

nkjv@Job:3:23 @ Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, And whom God has hedged in?

nkjv@Job:3:25 @ For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, And what I dreaded has happened to me.

nkjv@Job:4:1 @ Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:4:3 @ Surely you have instructed many, And you have strengthened weak hands.

nkjv@Job:4:4 @ Your words have upheld him who was stumbling, And you have strengthened the feeble knees;

nkjv@Job:4:6 @ Is not your reverence your confidence? And the integrity of your ways your hope?

nkjv@Job:4:7 @ "Remember now, who ever perished being innocent? Or where were the upright ever cut off?

nkjv@Job:4:8 @ Even as I have seen, Those who plow iniquity And sow trouble reap the same.

nkjv@Job:4:10 @ The roaring of the lion, The voice of the fierce lion, And the teeth of the young lions are broken.

nkjv@Job:4:13 @ In disquieting thoughts from the visions of the night, When deep sleep falls on men,

nkjv@Job:4:15 @ Then a spirit passed before my face; The hair on my body stood up.

nkjv@Job:4:16 @ It stood still, But I could not discern its appearance. A form was before my eyes; There was silence; Then I heard a voice saying:

nkjv@Job:4:20 @ They are broken in pieces from morning till evening; They perish forever, with no one regarding.

nkjv@Job:4:21 @ Does not their own excellence go away? They die, even without wisdom.'

nkjv@Job:5:2 @ For wrath kills a foolish man, And envy slays a simple one.

nkjv@Job:5:3 @ I have seen the foolish taking root, But suddenly I cursed his dwelling place.

nkjv@Job:5:5 @ Because the hungry eat up his harvest, Taking it even from the thorns, And a snare snatches their substance.

nkjv@Job:5:10 @ He gives rain on the earth, And sends waters on the fields.

nkjv@Job:5:17 @ "Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects; Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty.

nkjv@Job:5:19 @ He shall deliver you in six troubles, Yes, in seven no evil shall touch you.

nkjv@Job:5:21 @ You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, And you shall not be afraid of destruction when it comes.

nkjv@Job:5:23 @ For you shall have a covenant with the stones of the field, And the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.

nkjv@Job:5:24 @ You shall know that your tent is in peace; You shall visit your dwelling and find nothing amiss.

nkjv@Job:5:25 @ You shall also know that your descendants shall be many, And your offspring like the grass of the earth.

nkjv@Job:5:26 @ You shall come to the grave at a full age, As a sheaf of grain ripens in its season.

nkjv@Job:6:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:6:3 @ For then it would be heavier than the sand of the sea-- Therefore my words have been rash.

nkjv@Job:6:5 @ Does the wild donkey bray when it has grass, Or does the ox low over its fodder?

nkjv@Job:6:6 @ Can flavorless food be eaten without salt? Or is there any taste in the white of an egg?

nkjv@Job:6:10 @ Then I would still have comfort; Though in anguish I would exult, He will not spare; For I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.

nkjv@Job:6:11 @ "What strength do I have, that I should hope? And what is my end, that I should prolong my life?

nkjv@Job:6:12 @ Is my strength the strength of stones? Or is my flesh bronze?

nkjv@Job:6:13 @ Is my help not within me? And is success driven from me?

nkjv@Job:6:14 @ "To him who is afflicted, kindness should be shown by his friend, Even though he forsakes the fear of the Almighty.

nkjv@Job:6:17 @ When it is warm, they cease to flow; When it is hot, they vanish from their place.

nkjv@Job:6:20 @ They are disappointed because they were confident; They come there and are confused.

nkjv@Job:6:23 @ Or, "Deliver me from the enemy's hand'? Or, "Redeem me from the hand of oppressors'?

nkjv@Job:6:26 @ Do you intend to rebuke my words, And the speeches of a desperate one, which are as wind?

nkjv@Job:6:27 @ Yes, you overwhelm the fatherless, And you undermine your friend.

nkjv@Job:7:3 @ So I have been allotted months of futility, And wearisome nights have been appointed to me.

nkjv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down, I say, "When shall I arise, And the night be ended?' For I have had my fill of tossing till dawn.

nkjv@Job:7:6 @ "My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, And are spent without hope.

nkjv@Job:7:12 @ Am I a sea, or a sea serpent, That You set a guard over me?

nkjv@Job:7:13 @ When I say, "My bed will comfort me, My couch will ease my complaint,'

nkjv@Job:7:14 @ Then You scare me with dreams And terrify me with visions,

nkjv@Job:7:18 @ That You should visit him every morning, And test him every moment?

nkjv@Job:7:20 @ Have I sinned? What have I done to You, O watcher of men? Why have You set me as Your target, So that I am a burden to myself?

nkjv@Job:7:21 @ Why then do You not pardon my transgression, And take away my iniquity? For now I will lie down in the dust, And You will seek me diligently, But I will no longer be."

nkjv@Job:8:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:8:3 @ Does God subvert judgment? Or does the Almighty pervert justice?

nkjv@Job:8:7 @ Though your beginning was small, Yet your latter end would increase abundantly.

nkjv@Job:8:12 @ While it is yet green and not cut down, It withers before any other plant.

nkjv@Job:8:14 @ Whose confidence shall be cut off, And whose trust is a spider's web.

nkjv@Job:8:15 @ He leans on his house, but it does not stand. He holds it fast, but it does not endure.

nkjv@Job:8:16 @ He grows green in the sun, And his branches spread out in his garden.

nkjv@Job:8:18 @ If he is destroyed from his place, Then it will deny him, saying, "I have not seen you.'

nkjv@Job:9:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:9:3 @ If one wished to contend with Him, He could not answer Him one time out of a thousand.

nkjv@Job:9:4 @ God is wise in heart and mighty in strength. Who has hardened himself against Him and prospered?

nkjv@Job:9:5 @ He removes the mountains, and they do not know When He overturns them in His anger;

nkjv@Job:9:8 @ He alone spreads out the heavens, And treads on the waves of the sea;

nkjv@Job:9:13 @ God will not withdraw His anger, The allies of the proud lie prostrate beneath Him.

nkjv@Job:9:14 @ "How then can I answer Him, And choose my words to reason with Him?

nkjv@Job:9:16 @ If I called and He answered me, I would not believe that He was listening to my voice.

nkjv@Job:9:19 @ If it is a matter of strength, indeed He is strong; And if of justice, who will appoint my day in court?

nkjv@Job:9:23 @ If the scourge slays suddenly, He laughs at the plight of the innocent.

nkjv@Job:9:24 @ The earth is given into the hand of the wicked. He covers the faces of its judges. If it is not He, who else could it be?

nkjv@Job:9:28 @ I am afraid of all my sufferings; I know that You will not hold me innocent.

nkjv@Job:9:29 @ If I am condemned, Why then do I labor in vain?

nkjv@Job:9:33 @ Nor is there any mediator between us, Who may lay his hand on us both.

nkjv@Job:9:35 @ Then I would speak and not fear Him, But it is not so with me.

nkjv@Job:10:2 @ I will say to God, "Do not condemn me; Show me why You contend with me.

nkjv@Job:10:13 @ "And these things You have hidden in Your heart; I know that this was with You:

nkjv@Job:10:14 @ If I sin, then You mark me, And will not acquit me of my iniquity.

nkjv@Job:10:15 @ If I am wicked, woe to me; Even if I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head. I am full of disgrace; See my misery!

nkjv@Job:10:17 @ You renew Your witnesses against me, And increase Your indignation toward me; Changes and war are ever with me.

nkjv@Job:10:18 @ "Why then have You brought me out of the womb? Oh, that I had perished and no eye had seen me!

nkjv@Job:10:19 @ I would have been as though I had not been. I would have been carried from the womb to the grave.

nkjv@Job:10:22 @ A land as dark as darkness itself, As the shadow of death, without any order, Where even the light is like darkness."'

nkjv@Job:11:1 @ Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:11:3 @ Should your empty talk make men hold their peace? And when you mock, should no one rebuke you?

nkjv@Job:11:5 @ But oh, that God would speak, And open His lips against you,

nkjv@Job:11:6 @ That He would show you the secrets of wisdom! For they would double your prudence. Know therefore that God exacts from you Less than your iniquity deserves.

nkjv@Job:11:8 @ They are higher than heaven-- what can you do? Deeper than Sheol-- what can you know?

nkjv@Job:11:10 @ "If He passes by, imprisons, and gathers to judgment, Then who can hinder Him?

nkjv@Job:11:11 @ For He knows deceitful men; He sees wickedness also. Will He not then consider it?

nkjv@Job:11:12 @ For an empty-headed man will be wise, When a wild donkey's colt is born a man.

nkjv@Job:11:14 @ If iniquity were in your hand, and you put it far away, And would not let wickedness dwell in your tents;

nkjv@Job:11:15 @ Then surely you could lift up your face without spot; Yes, you could be steadfast, and not fear;

nkjv@Job:12:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:12:4 @ "I am one mocked by his friends, Who called on God, and He answered him, The just and blameless who is ridiculed.

nkjv@Job:12:6 @ The tents of robbers prosper, And those who provoke God are secure-- In what God provides by His hand.

nkjv@Job:12:12 @ Wisdom is with aged men, And with length of days, understanding.

nkjv@Job:12:13 @ "With Him are wisdom and strength, He has counsel and understanding.

nkjv@Job:12:15 @ If He withholds the waters, they dry up; If He sends them out, they overwhelm the earth.

nkjv@Job:12:16 @ With Him are strength and prudence. The deceived and the deceiver are His.

nkjv@Job:12:18 @ He loosens the bonds of kings, And binds their waist with a belt.

nkjv@Job:12:20 @ He deprives the trusted ones of speech, And takes away the discernment of the elders.

nkjv@Job:12:23 @ He makes nations great, and destroys them; He enlarges nations, and guides them.

nkjv@Job:12:25 @ They grope in the dark without light, And He makes them stagger like a drunken man.

nkjv@Job:13:1 @ "Behold, my eye has seen all this, My ear has heard and understood it.

nkjv@Job:13:5 @ Oh, that you would be silent, And it would be your wisdom!

nkjv@Job:13:8 @ Will you show partiality for Him? Will you contend for God?

nkjv@Job:13:9 @ Will it be well when He searches you out? Or can you mock Him as one mocks a man?

nkjv@Job:13:11 @ Will not His excellence make you afraid, And the dread of Him fall upon you?

nkjv@Job:13:12 @ Your platitudes are proverbs of ashes, Your defenses are defenses of clay.

nkjv@Job:13:13 @ "Hold your peace with me, and let me speak, Then let come on me what may!

nkjv@Job:13:15 @ Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him. Even so, I will defend my own ways before Him.

nkjv@Job:13:17 @ Listen carefully to my speech, And to my declaration with your ears.

nkjv@Job:13:19 @ Who is he who will contend with me? If now I hold my tongue, I perish.

nkjv@Job:13:20 @ "Only two things do not do to me, Then I will not hide myself from You:

nkjv@Job:13:22 @ Then call, and I will answer; Or let me speak, then You respond to me.

nkjv@Job:13:24 @ Why do You hide Your face, And regard me as Your enemy?

nkjv@Job:13:25 @ Will You frighten a leaf driven to and fro? And will You pursue dry stubble?

nkjv@Job:13:28 @ "Man decays like a rotten thing, Like a garment that is moth-eaten.

nkjv@Job:14:3 @ And do You open Your eyes on such a one, And bring me to judgment with Yourself?

nkjv@Job:14:7 @ "For there is hope for a tree, If it is cut down, that it will sprout again, And that its tender shoots will not cease.

nkjv@Job:14:9 @ Yet at the scent of water it will bud And bring forth branches like a plant.

nkjv@Job:14:12 @ So man lies down and does not rise. Till the heavens are no more, They will not awake Nor be roused from their sleep.

nkjv@Job:14:19 @ As water wears away stones, And as torrents wash away the soil of the earth; So You destroy the hope of man.

nkjv@Job:14:20 @ You prevail forever against him, and he passes on; You change his countenance and send him away.

nkjv@Job:15:1 @ Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:15:11 @ Are the consolations of God too small for you, And the word spoken gently with you?

nkjv@Job:15:15 @ If God puts no trust in His saints, And the heavens are not pure in His sight,

nkjv@Job:15:17 @ "I will tell you, hear me; What I have seen I will declare,

nkjv@Job:15:18 @ What wise men have told, Not hiding anything received from their fathers,

nkjv@Job:15:19 @ To whom alone the land was given, And no alien passed among them:

nkjv@Job:15:20 @ The wicked man writhes with pain all his days, And the number of years is hidden from the oppressor.

nkjv@Job:15:32 @ It will be accomplished before his time, And his branch will not be green.

nkjv@Job:15:34 @ For the company of hypocrites will be barren, And fire will consume the tents of bribery.

nkjv@Job:16:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:16:3 @ Shall words of wind have an end? Or what provokes you that you answer?

nkjv@Job:16:5 @ But I would strengthen you with my mouth, And the comfort of my lips would relieve your grief.

nkjv@Job:16:6 @ "Though I speak, my grief is not relieved; And if I remain silent, how am I eased?

nkjv@Job:16:9 @ He tears me in His wrath, and hates me; He gnashes at me with His teeth; My adversary sharpens His gaze on me.

nkjv@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, but He has shattered me; He also has taken me by my neck, and shaken me to pieces; He has set me up for His target,

nkjv@Job:16:17 @ Although no violence is in my hands, And my prayer is pure.

nkjv@Job:16:19 @ Surely even now my witness is in heaven, And my evidence is on high.

nkjv@Job:16:20 @ My friends scorn me; My eyes pour out tears to God.

nkjv@Job:16:22 @ For when a few years are finished, I shall go the way of no return.

nkjv@Job:17:1 @ "My spirit is broken, My days are extinguished, The grave is ready for me.

nkjv@Job:17:4 @ For You have hidden their heart from understanding; Therefore You will not exalt them.

nkjv@Job:17:5 @ He who speaks flattery to his friends, Even the eyes of his children will fail.

nkjv@Job:17:6 @ "But He has made me a byword of the people, And I have become one in whose face men spit.

nkjv@Job:17:8 @ Upright men are astonished at this, And the innocent stirs himself up against the hypocrite.

nkjv@Job:17:11 @ My days are past, My purposes are broken off, Even the thoughts of my heart.

nkjv@Job:17:15 @ Where then is my hope? As for my hope, who can see it?

nkjv@Job:18:1 @ Then Bildad the Shuhite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:18:2 @ "How long till you put an end to words? Gain understanding, and afterward we will speak.

nkjv@Job:18:4 @ You who tear yourself in anger, Shall the earth be forsaken for you? Or shall the rock be removed from its place?

nkjv@Job:18:6 @ The light is dark in his tent, And his lamp beside him is put out.

nkjv@Job:18:7 @ The steps of his strength are shortened, And his own counsel casts him down.

nkjv@Job:18:10 @ A noose is hidden for him on the ground, And a trap for him in the road.

nkjv@Job:18:11 @ Terrors frighten him on every side, And drive him to his feet.

nkjv@Job:18:12 @ His strength is starved, And destruction is ready at his side.

nkjv@Job:18:14 @ He is uprooted from the shelter of his tent, And they parade him before the king of terrors.

nkjv@Job:18:15 @ They dwell in his tent who are none of his; Brimstone is scattered on his dwelling.

nkjv@Job:18:17 @ The memory of him perishes from the earth, And he has no name among the renowned.

nkjv@Job:18:18 @ He is driven from light into darkness, And chased out of the world.

nkjv@Job:18:20 @ Those in the west are astonished at his day, As those in the east are frightened.

nkjv@Job:19:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:19:2 @ "How long will you torment my soul, And break me in pieces with words?

nkjv@Job:19:3 @ These ten times you have reproached me; You are not ashamed that you have wronged me.

nkjv@Job:19:6 @ Know then that God has wronged me, And has surrounded me with His net.

nkjv@Job:19:8 @ He has fenced up my way, so that I cannot pass; And He has set darkness in my paths.

nkjv@Job:19:9 @ He has stripped me of my glory, And taken the crown from my head.

nkjv@Job:19:11 @ He has also kindled His wrath against me, And He counts me as one of His enemies.

nkjv@Job:19:12 @ His troops come together And build up their road against me; They encamp all around my tent.

nkjv@Job:19:14 @ My relatives have failed, And my close friends have forgotten me.

nkjv@Job:19:15 @ Those who dwell in my house, and my maidservants, Count me as a stranger; I am an alien in their sight.

nkjv@Job:19:17 @ My breath is offensive to my wife, And I am repulsive to the children of my own body.

nkjv@Job:19:18 @ Even young children despise me; I arise, and they speak against me.

nkjv@Job:19:19 @ All my close friends abhor me, And those whom I love have turned against me.

nkjv@Job:19:21 @ "Have pity on me, have pity on me, O you my friends, For the hand of God has struck me!

nkjv@Job:19:23 @ "Oh, that my words were written! Oh, that they were inscribed in a book!

nkjv@Job:19:24 @ That they were engraved on a rock With an iron pen and lead, forever!

nkjv@Job:19:29 @ Be afraid of the sword for yourselves; For wrath brings the punishment of the sword, That you may know there is a judgment."

nkjv@Job:20:1 @ Then Zophar the Naamathite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:20:5 @ That the triumphing of the wicked is short, And the joy of the hypocrite is but for a moment?

nkjv@Job:20:6 @ Though his haughtiness mounts up to the heavens, And his head reaches to the clouds,

nkjv@Job:20:7 @ Yet he will perish forever like his own refuse; Those who have seen him will say, "Where is he?'

nkjv@Job:20:10 @ His children will seek the favor of the poor, And his hands will restore his wealth.

nkjv@Job:20:14 @ Yet his food in his stomach turns sour; It becomes cobra venom within him.

nkjv@Job:20:18 @ He will restore that for which he labored, And will not swallow it down; From the proceeds of business He will get no enjoyment.

nkjv@Job:20:19 @ For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor, He has violently seized a house which he did not build.

nkjv@Job:20:22 @ In his self-sufficiency he will be in distress; Every hand of misery will come against him.

nkjv@Job:20:23 @ When he is about to fill his stomach, God will cast on him the fury of His wrath, And will rain it on him while he is eating.

nkjv@Job:20:26 @ Total darkness is reserved for his treasures. An unfanned fire will consume him; It shall go ill with him who is left in his tent.

nkjv@Job:20:27 @ The heavens will reveal his iniquity, And the earth will rise up against him.

nkjv@Job:21:1 @ Then Job answered and said:

nkjv@Job:21:2 @ "Listen carefully to my speech, And let this be your consolation.

nkjv@Job:21:3 @ Bear with me that I may speak, And after I have spoken, keep mocking.

nkjv@Job:21:4 @ "As for me, is my complaint against man? And if it were, why should I not be impatient?

nkjv@Job:21:6 @ Even when I remember I am terrified, And trembling takes hold of my flesh.

nkjv@Job:21:8 @ Their descendants are established with them in their sight, And their offspring before their eyes.

nkjv@Job:21:11 @ They send forth their little ones like a flock, And their children dance.

nkjv@Job:21:13 @ They spend their days in wealth, And in a moment go down to the grave.

nkjv@Job:21:17 @ "How often is the lamp of the wicked put out? How often does their destruction come upon them, The sorrows God distributes in His anger?

nkjv@Job:21:19 @ They say, "God lays up one's iniquity for his children'; Let Him recompense him, that he may know it.

nkjv@Job:21:21 @ For what does he care about his household after him, When the number of his months is cut in half?

nkjv@Job:21:23 @ One dies in his full strength, Being wholly at ease and secure;

nkjv@Job:21:25 @ Another man dies in the bitterness of his soul, Never having eaten with pleasure.

nkjv@Job:21:28 @ For you say, "Where is the house of the prince? And where is the tent, The dwelling place of the wicked?'

nkjv@Job:21:34 @ How then can you comfort me with empty words, Since falsehood remains in your answers?"

nkjv@Job:22:1 @ Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said:

nkjv@Job:22:4 @ "Is it because of your fear of Him that He corrects you, And enters into judgment with you?

nkjv@Job:22:5 @ Is not your wickedness great, And your iniquity without end?

nkjv@Job:22:6 @ For you have taken pledges from your brother for no reason, And stripped the naked of their clothing.

nkjv@Job:22:7 @ You have not given the weary water to drink, And you have withheld bread from the hungry.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:8 @ Open your mouth for the speechless, In the cause of all who are appointed to die.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:9 @ Open your mouth, judge righteously, And plead the cause of the poor and needy.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:17 @ She girds herself with strength, And strengthens her arms.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:20 @ She extends her hand to the poor, Yes, she reaches out her hands to the needy.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:22 @ She makes tapestry for herself; Her clothing is fine linen and purple.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:23 @ Her husband is known in the gates, When he sits among the elders of the land.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:24 @ She makes linen garments and sells them, And supplies sashes for the merchants.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:25 @ Strength and honor are her clothing; She shall rejoice in time to come.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:26 @ She opens her mouth with wisdom, And on her tongue is the law of kindness.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:27 @ She watches over the ways of her household, And does not eat the bread of idleness.

nkjv@Proverbs:31:28 @ Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:4 @ One generation passes away, and another generation comes; But the earth abides forever.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:5 @ The sun also rises, and the sun goes down, And hastens to the place where it arose.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:9 @ That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:10 @ Is there anything of which it may be said, "See, this is new"? It has already been in ancient times before us.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:13 @ And I set my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven; this burdensome task God has given to the sons of man, by which they may be exercised.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:1:14 @ I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and indeed, all is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:1 @ I said in my heart, "Come now, I will test you with mirth; therefore enjoy pleasure"; but surely, this also was vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:3 @ I searched in my heart how to gratify my flesh with wine, while guiding my heart with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what was good for the sons of men to do under heaven all the days of their lives.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:5 @ I made myself gardens and orchards, and I planted all kinds of fruit trees in them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:8 @ I also gathered for myself silver and gold and the special treasures of kings and of the provinces. I acquired male and female singers, the delights of the sons of men, and musical instruments of all kinds.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:11 @ Then I looked on all the works that my hands had done And on the labor in which I had toiled; And indeed all was vanity and grasping for the wind. There was no profit under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ Then I turned myself to consider wisdom and madness and folly; For what can the man do who succeeds the king?-- Only what he has already done.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:13 @ Then I saw that wisdom excels folly As light excels darkness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:14 @ The wise man's eyes are in his head, But the fool walks in darkness. Yet I myself perceived That the same event happens to them all.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @ So I said in my heart, "As it happens to the fool, It also happens to me, And why was I then more wise?" Then I said in my heart, "This also is vanity."

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @ For there is no more remembrance of the wise than of the fool forever, Since all that now is will be forgotten in the days to come. And how does a wise man die? As the fool!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:18 @ Then I hated all my labor in which I had toiled under the sun, because I must leave it to the man who will come after me.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:23 @ For all his days are sorrowful, and his work burdensome; even in the night his heart takes no rest. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:24 @ Nothing is better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and that his soul should enjoy good in his labor. This also, I saw, was from the hand of God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:2:25 @ For who can eat, or who can have enjoyment, more than I?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:1 @ To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:7 @ A time to tear, And a time to sew; A time to keep silence, And a time to speak;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:10 @ I have seen the God-given task with which the sons of men are to be occupied.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:11 @ He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:13 @ and also that every man should eat and drink and enjoy the good of all his labor--it is the gift of God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:14 @ I know that whatever God does, It shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, And nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:15 @ That which is has already been, And what is to be has already been; And God requires an account of what is past.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:16 @ Moreover I saw under the sun: In the place of judgment, Wickedness was there; And in the place of righteousness, Iniquity was there.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:18 @ I said in my heart, "Concerning the condition of the sons of men, God tests them, that they may see that they themselves are like animals."

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:19 @ For what happens to the sons of men also happens to animals; one thing befalls them: as one dies, so dies the other. Surely, they all have one breath; man has no advantage over animals, for all is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:21 @ Who knows the spirit of the sons of men, which goes upward, and the spirit of the animal, which goes down to the earth?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @ So I perceived that nothing is better than that a man should rejoice in his own works, for that is his heritage. For who can bring him to see what will happen after him?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:1 @ Then I returned and considered all the oppression that is done under the sun: And look! The tears of the oppressed, But they have no comforter-- On the side of their oppressors there is power, But they have no comforter.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:3 @ Yet, better than both is he who has never existed, Who has not seen the evil work that is done under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Again, I saw that for all toil and every skillful work a man is envied by his neighbor. This also is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:7 @ Then I returned, and I saw vanity under the sun:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @ There is one alone, without companion: He has neither son nor brother. Yet there is no end to all his labors, Nor is his eye satisfied with riches. But he never asks, "For whom do I toil and deprive myself of good?" This also is vanity and a grave misfortune.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:10 @ For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:12 @ Though one may be overpowered by another, two can withstand him. And a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @ There was no end of all the people over whom he was made king; Yet those who come afterward will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and grasping for the wind.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:1 @ Walk prudently when you go to the house of God; and draw near to hear rather than to give the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they do evil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:2 @ Do not be rash with your mouth, And let not your heart utter anything hastily before God. For God is in heaven, and you on earth; Therefore let your words be few.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:4 @ When you make a vow to God, do not delay to pay it; For He has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you have vowed--

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:6 @ Do not let your mouth cause your flesh to sin, nor say before the messenger of God that it was an error. Why should God be angry at your excuse and destroy the work of your hands?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:8 @ If you see the oppression of the poor, and the violent perversion of justice and righteousness in a province, do not marvel at the matter; for high official watches over high official, and higher officials are over them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:9 @ Moreover the profit of the land is for all; even the king is served from the field.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:11 @ When goods increase, They increase who eat them; So what profit have the owners Except to see them with their eyes?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:13 @ There is a severe evil which I have seen under the sun: Riches kept for their owner to his hurt.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:14 @ But those riches perish through misfortune; When he begets a son, there is nothing in his hand.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:18 @ Here is what I have seen: It is good and fitting for one to eat and drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labor in which he toils under the sun all the days of his life which God gives him; for it is his heritage.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:5:19 @ As for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, and given him power to eat of it, to receive his heritage and rejoice in his labor--this is the gift of God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:2 @ A man to whom God has given riches and wealth and honor, so that he lacks nothing for himself of all he desires; yet God does not give him power to eat of it, but a foreigner consumes it. This is vanity, and it is an evil affliction.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:3 @ If a man begets a hundred children and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but his soul is not satisfied with goodness, or indeed he has no burial, I say that a stillborn child is better than he--

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:5 @ Though it has not seen the sun or known anything, this has more rest than that man,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:6 @ even if he lives a thousand years twice--but has not seen goodness. Do not all go to one place?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ Whatever one is, he has been named already, For it is known that he is man; And he cannot contend with Him who is mightier than he.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:6:12 @ For who knows what is good for man in life, all the days of his vain life which he passes like a shadow? Who can tell a man what will happen after him under the sun?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name is better than precious ointment, And the day of death than the day of one's birth;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:2 @ Better to go to the house of mourning Than to go to the house of feasting, For that is the end of all men; And the living will take it to heart.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:3 @ Sorrow is better than laughter, For by a sad countenance the heart is made better.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:8 @ The end of a thing is better than its beginning; The patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:9 @ Do not hasten in your spirit to be angry, For anger rests in the bosom of fools.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:12 @ For wisdom is a defense as money is a defense, But the excellence of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:15 @ I have seen everything in my days of vanity: There is a just man who perishes in his righteousness, And there is a wicked man who prolongs life in his wickedness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:19 @ Wisdom strengthens the wise More than ten rulers of the city.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @ For many times, also, your own heart has known That even you have cursed others.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ I applied my heart to know, To search and seek out wisdom and the reason of things, To know the wickedness of folly, Even of foolishness and madness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:2 @ I say, "Keep the king's commandment for the sake of your oath to God.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:3 @ Do not be hasty to go from his presence. Do not take your stand for an evil thing, for he does whatever pleases him."

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:5 @ He who keeps his command will experience nothing harmful; And a wise man's heart discerns both time and judgment,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @ Because for every matter there is a time and judgment, Though the misery of man increases greatly.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:7 @ For he does not know what will happen; So who can tell him when it will occur?

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ No one has power over the spirit to retain the spirit, And no one has power in the day of death. There is no release from that war, And wickedness will not deliver those who are given to it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this I have seen, and applied my heart to every work that is done under the sun: There is a time in which one man rules over another to his own hurt.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ Then I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of holiness, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done. This also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:11 @ Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @ There is a vanity which occurs on earth, that there are just men to whom it happens according to the work of the wicked; again, there are wicked men to whom it happens according to the work of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @ So I commended enjoyment, because a man has nothing better under the sun than to eat, drink, and be merry; for this will remain with him in his labor all the days of his life which God gives him under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I applied my heart to know wisdom and to see the business that is done on earth, even though one sees no sleep day or night,

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:8:17 @ then I saw all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun. For though a man labors to discover it, yet he will not find it; moreover, though a wise man attempts to know it, he will not be able to find it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ All things come alike to all: One event happens to the righteous and the wicked; To the good, the clean, and the unclean; To him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good, so is the sinner; He who takes an oath as he who fears an oath.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @ This is an evil in all that is done under the sun: that one thing happens to all. Truly the hearts of the sons of men are full of evil; madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:5 @ For the living know that they will die; But the dead know nothing, And they have no more reward, For the memory of them is forgotten.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:6 @ Also their love, their hatred, and their envy have now perished; Nevermore will they have a share In anything done under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:8 @ Let your garments always be white, And let your head lack no oil.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @ Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; for that is your portion in life, and in the labor which you perform under the sun.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @ I returned and saw under the sun that-- The race is not to the swift, Nor the battle to the strong, Nor bread to the wise, Nor riches to men of understanding, Nor favor to men of skill; But time and chance happen to them all.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @ For man also does not know his time: Like fish taken in a cruel net, Like birds caught in a snare, So the sons of men are snared in an evil time, When it falls suddenly upon them.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ This wisdom I have also seen under the sun, and it seemed great to me:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:14 @ There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it, besieged it, and built great snares around it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:16 @ Then I said: "Wisdom is better than strength. Nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, And his words are not heard.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:9:17 @ Words of the wise, spoken quietly, should be heard Rather than the shout of a ruler of fools.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ Dead flies putrefy the perfumer's ointment, And cause it to give off a foul odor; So does a little folly to one respected for wisdom and honor.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ Even when a fool walks along the way, He lacks wisdom, And he shows everyone that he is a fool.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:4 @ If the spirit of the ruler rises against you, Do not leave your post; For conciliation pacifies great offenses.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:5 @ There is an evil I have seen under the sun, As an error proceeding from the ruler:

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:7 @ I have seen servants on horses, While princes walk on the ground like servants.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:8 @ He who digs a pit will fall into it, And whoever breaks through a wall will be bitten by a serpent.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ He who quarries stones may be hurt by them, And he who splits wood may be endangered by it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the ax is dull, And one does not sharpen the edge, Then he must use more strength; But wisdom brings success.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:11 @ A serpent may bite when it is not charmed; The babbler is no different.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:13 @ The words of his mouth begin with foolishness, And the end of his talk is raving madness.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:15 @ The labor of fools wearies them, For they do not even know how to go to the city!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:16 @ Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, And your princes feast in the morning!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Blessed are you, O land, when your king is the son of nobles, And your princes feast at the proper time-- For strength and not for drunkenness!

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:18 @ Because of laziness the building decays, And through idleness of hands the house leaks.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:10:20 @ Do not curse the king, even in your thought; Do not curse the rich, even in your bedroom; For a bird of the air may carry your voice, And a bird in flight may tell the matter.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:2 @ Give a serving to seven, and also to eight, For you do not know what evil will be on the earth.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:6 @ In the morning sow your seed, And in the evening do not withhold your hand; For you do not know which will prosper, Either this or that, Or whether both alike will be good.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:11:9 @ Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, And let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth; Walk in the ways of your heart, And in the sight of your eyes; But know that for all these God will bring you into judgment.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:1 @ Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, Before the difficult days come, And the years draw near when you say, "I have no pleasure in them":

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:2 @ While the sun and the light, The moon and the stars, Are not darkened, And the clouds do not return after the rain;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:3 @ In the day when the keepers of the house tremble, And the strong men bow down; When the grinders cease because they are few, And those that look through the windows grow dim;

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:4 @ When the doors are shut in the streets, And the sound of grinding is low; When one rises up at the sound of a bird, And all the daughters of music are brought low.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:5 @ Also they are afraid of height, And of terrors in the way; When the almond tree blossoms, The grasshopper is a burden, And desire fails. For man goes to his eternal home, And the mourners go about the streets.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:6 @ Remember your Creator before the silver cord is loosed, Or the golden bowl is broken, Or the pitcher shattered at the fountain, Or the wheel broken at the well.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:7 @ Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, And the spirit will return to God who gave it.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:10 @ The Preacher sought to find acceptable words; and what was written was upright--words of truth.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:11 @ The words of the wise are like goads, and the words of scholars are like well-driven nails, given by one Shepherd.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:12 @ And further, my son, be admonished by these. Of making many books there is no end, and much study is wearisome to the flesh.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:13 @ Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God and keep His commandments, For this is man's all.

nkjv@Ecclesiastes:12:14 @ For God will bring every work into judgment, Including every secret thing, Whether good or evil.

nkjv@Songs:1:3 @ Because of the fragrance of your good ointments, Your name is ointment poured forth; Therefore the virgins love you.

nkjv@Songs:1:5 @ I am dark, but lovely, O daughters of Jerusalem, Like the tents of Kedar, Like the curtains of Solomon.

nkjv@Songs:1:8 @ If you do not know, O fairest among women, Follow in the footsteps of the flock, And feed your little goats Beside the shepherds' tents.

nkjv@Songs:1:10 @ Your cheeks are lovely with ornaments, Your neck with chains of gold.

nkjv@Songs:1:11 @ We will make you ornaments of gold With studs of silver.

nkjv@Songs:1:12 @ While the king is at his table, My spikenard sends forth its fragrance.

nkjv@Songs:1:13 @ A bundle of myrrh is my beloved to me, That lies all night between my breasts.

nkjv@Songs:1:14 @ My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blooms In the vineyards of En Gedi.

nkjv@Songs:1:16 @ Behold, you are handsome, my beloved! Yes, pleasant! Also our bed is green.

nkjv@Songs:2:7 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.

nkjv@Songs:2:13 @ The fig tree puts forth her green figs, And the vines with the tender grapes Give a good smell. Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away!

nkjv@Songs:2:15 @ Catch us the foxes, The little foxes that spoil the vines, For our vines have tender grapes.

nkjv@Songs:3:3 @ The watchmen who go about the city found me; I said, "Have you seen the one I love?"

nkjv@Songs:3:4 @ Scarcely had I passed by them, When I found the one I love. I held him and would not let him go, Until I had brought him to the house of my mother, And into the chamber of her who conceived me.

nkjv@Songs:3:5 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles or by the does of the field, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.

nkjv@Songs:3:6 @ Who is this coming out of the wilderness Like pillars of smoke, Perfumed with myrrh and frankincense, With all the merchant's fragrant powders?

nkjv@Songs:3:7 @ Behold, it is Solomon's couch, With sixty valiant men around it, Of the valiant of Israel.

nkjv@Songs:4:2 @ Your teeth are like a flock of shorn sheep Which have come up from the washing, Every one of which bears twins, And none is barren among them.

nkjv@Songs:4:4 @ Your neck is like the tower of David, Built for an armory, On which hang a thousand bucklers, All shields of mighty men.

nkjv@Songs:4:6 @ Until the day breaks And the shadows flee away, I will go my way to the mountain of myrrh And to the hill of frankincense.

nkjv@Songs:4:8 @ Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, With me from Lebanon. Look from the top of Amana, From the top of Senir and Hermon, From the lions' dens, From the mountains of the leopards.

nkjv@Songs:4:10 @ How fair is your love, My sister, my spouse! How much better than wine is your love, And the scent of your perfumes Than all spices!

nkjv@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips, O my spouse, Drip as the honeycomb; Honey and milk are under your tongue; And the fragrance of your garments Is like the fragrance of Lebanon.

nkjv@Songs:4:12 @ A garden enclosed Is my sister, my spouse, A spring shut up, A fountain sealed.

nkjv@Songs:4:13 @ Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates With pleasant fruits, Fragrant henna with spikenard,

nkjv@Songs:4:14 @ Spikenard and saffron, Calamus and cinnamon, With all trees of frankincense, Myrrh and aloes, With all the chief spices--

nkjv@Songs:4:15 @ A fountain of gardens, A well of living waters, And streams from Lebanon.

nkjv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind, And come, O south! Blow upon my garden, That its spices may flow out. Let my beloved come to his garden And eat its pleasant fruits.

nkjv@Songs:5:1 @ I have come to my garden, my sister, my spouse; I have gathered my myrrh with my spice; I have eaten my honeycomb with my honey; I have drunk my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends! Drink, yes, drink deeply, O beloved ones!

nkjv@Songs:5:2 @ I sleep, but my heart is awake; It is the voice of my beloved! He knocks, saying, "Open for me, my sister, my love, My dove, my perfect one; For my head is covered with dew, My locks with the drops of the night."

nkjv@Songs:5:3 @ I have taken off my robe; How can I put it on again? I have washed my feet; How can I defile them?

nkjv@Songs:5:5 @ I arose to open for my beloved, And my hands dripped with myrrh, My fingers with liquid myrrh, On the handles of the lock.

nkjv@Songs:5:6 @ I opened for my beloved, But my beloved had turned away and was gone. My heart leaped up when he spoke. I sought him, but I could not find him; I called him, but he gave me no answer.

nkjv@Songs:5:7 @ The watchmen who went about the city found me. They struck me, they wounded me; The keepers of the walls Took my veil away from me.

nkjv@Songs:5:9 @ What is your beloved More than another beloved, O fairest among women? What is your beloved More than another beloved, That you so charge us?

nkjv@Songs:5:10 @ My beloved is white and ruddy, Chief among ten thousand.

nkjv@Songs:5:11 @ His head is like the finest gold; His locks are wavy, And black as a raven.

nkjv@Songs:5:13 @ His cheeks are like a bed of spices, Banks of scented herbs. His lips are lilies, Dripping liquid myrrh.

nkjv@Songs:5:15 @ His legs are pillars of marble Set on bases of fine gold. His countenance is like Lebanon, Excellent as the cedars.

nkjv@Songs:5:16 @ His mouth is most sweet, Yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, And this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem!

nkjv@Songs:6:1 @ Where has your beloved gone, O fairest among women? Where has your beloved turned aside, That we may seek him with you?

nkjv@Songs:6:2 @ My beloved has gone to his garden, To the beds of spices, To feed his flock in the gardens, And to gather lilies.

nkjv@Songs:6:6 @ Your teeth are like a flock of sheep Which have come up from the washing; Every one bears twins, And none is barren among them.

nkjv@Songs:6:8 @ There are sixty queens And eighty concubines, And virgins without number.

nkjv@Songs:6:9 @ My dove, my perfect one, Is the only one, The only one of her mother, The favorite of the one who bore her. The daughters saw her And called her blessed, The queens and the concubines, And they praised her.

nkjv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down to the garden of nuts To see the verdure of the valley, To see whether the vine had budded And the pomegranates had bloomed.

nkjv@Songs:6:12 @ Before I was even aware, My soul had made me As the chariots of my noble people.

nkjv@Songs:7:2 @ Your navel is a rounded goblet; It lacks no blended beverage. Your waist is a heap of wheat Set about with lilies.

nkjv@Songs:7:9 @ And the roof of your mouth like the best wine. The wine goes down smoothly for my beloved, Moving gently the lips of sleepers.

nkjv@Songs:7:12 @ Let us get up early to the vineyards; Let us see if the vine has budded, Whether the grape blossoms are open, And the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.

nkjv@Songs:8:4 @ I charge you, O daughters of Jerusalem, Do not stir up nor awaken love Until it pleases.

nkjv@Songs:8:5 @ Who is this coming up from the wilderness, Leaning upon her beloved? I awakened you under the apple tree. There your mother brought you forth; There she who bore you brought you forth.

nkjv@Songs:8:6 @ Set me as a seal upon your heart, As a seal upon your arm; For love is as strong as death, Jealousy as cruel as the grave; Its flames are flames of fire, A most vehement flame.

nkjv@Songs:8:7 @ Many waters cannot quench love, Nor can the floods drown it. If a man would give for love All the wealth of his house, It would be utterly despised.

nkjv@Songs:8:8 @ We have a little sister, And she has no breasts. What shall we do for our sister In the day when she is spoken for?

nkjv@Songs:8:9 @ If she is a wall, We will build upon her A battlement of silver; And if she is a door, We will enclose her With boards of cedar.

nkjv@Songs:8:10 @ I am a wall, And my breasts like towers; Then I became in his eyes As one who found peace.

nkjv@Songs:8:12 @ My own vineyard is before me. You, O Solomon, may have a thousand, And those who tend its fruit two hundred.

nkjv@Songs:8:13 @ You who dwell in the gardens, The companions listen for your voice-- Let me hear it!
