rsv@Job:1:1 @ There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, one who feared God, and turned away from evil.

rsv@Job:1:3 @ He had seven thousand sheep, three thousand camels, five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she-asses, and very many servants; so that this man was the greatest of all the people of the east.

rsv@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.

rsv@Job:1:7 @ The LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."

rsv@Job:1:8 @ And 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, who fears God and turns away from evil?"

rsv@Job:1:14 @ and there came a messenger to Job, and said, "The oxen were plowing and the asses feeding beside them;

rsv@Job:1:16 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, 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."

rsv@Job:1:17 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "The Chalde'ans formed three companies, and made a raid upon the camels and took them, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."

rsv@Job:1:18 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "Your sons and daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house;

rsv@Job:1:19 @ and behold, a great wind came across the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you."

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

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

rsv@Job:2:2 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."

rsv@Job:2:3 @ And 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, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you moved me against him, to destroy him without cause."

rsv@Job:2:7 @ So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD, and afflicted Job with loathsome sores from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.

rsv@Job:2:10 @ But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

rsv@Job:2:11 @ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eli'phaz the Te'manite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Na'amathite. They made an appointment together to come to condole with him and comfort him.

rsv@Job:3:6 @ That night--let thick darkness seize it! let it not rejoice among the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.

rsv@Job:3:11 @ "Why did I not die at birth, come forth from the womb and expire?

rsv@Job:3:12 @ Why did the knees receive me? Or why the breasts, that I should suck?

rsv@Job:3:16 @ Or why was I not as a hidden untimely birth, as infants that never see the light?

rsv@Job:3:21 @ who long for death, but it comes not, and dig for it more than for hid treasures;

rsv@Job:3:24 @ For my sighing comes as my bread, and my groanings are poured out like water.

rsv@Job:3:25 @ For the thing that I fear comes upon me, and what I dread befalls me.

rsv@Job:3:26 @ I am not at ease, nor am I quiet; I have no rest; but trouble comes."

rsv@Job:4:5 @ But now it has come to you, and you are impatient; it touches you, and you are dismayed.

rsv@Job:4:8 @ As I have seen, those who plow iniquity and sow trouble reap the same.

rsv@Job:4:9 @ By the breath of God they perish, and by the blast of his anger they are consumed.

rsv@Job:4:12 @ "Now a word was brought to me stealthily, my ear received the whisper of it.

rsv@Job:4:13 @ Amid thoughts from visions of the night, when deep sleep falls on men,

rsv@Job:4:14 @ dread came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones shake.

rsv@Job:5:6 @ For affliction does not come from the dust, nor does trouble sprout from the ground;

rsv@Job:5:8 @ "As for me, I would seek God, and to God would I commit my cause;

rsv@Job:5:13 @ He takes the wise in their own craftiness; and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.

rsv@Job:5:14 @ They meet with darkness in the daytime, and grope at noonday as in the night.

rsv@Job:5:21 @ You shall be hid from the scourge of the tongue, and shall not fear destruction when it comes.

rsv@Job:5:26 @ You shall come to your grave in ripe old age, as a shock of grain comes up to the threshing floor in its season.

rsv@Job:6:4 @ For the arrows of the Almighty are in me; my spirit drinks their poison; the terrors of God are arrayed against me.

rsv@Job:6:6 @ Can that which is tasteless be eaten without salt, or is there any taste in the slime of the purslane?

rsv@Job:6:7 @ My appetite refuses to touch them; they are as food that is loathsome to me.

rsv@Job:6:9 @ that it would please God to crush me, that he would let loose his hand and cut me off!

rsv@Job:6:13 @ In truth I have no help in me, and any resource is driven from me.

rsv@Job:6:17 @ In time of heat they disappear; when it is hot, they vanish from their place.

rsv@Job:6:20 @ They are disappointed because they were confident; they come thither and are confounded.

rsv@Job:6:21 @ Such you have now become to me; you see my calamity, and are afraid.

rsv@Job:6:22 @ Have I said, `Make me a gift'? Or, `From your wealth offer a bribe for me'?

rsv@Job:6:24 @ "Teach me, and I will be silent; make me understand how I have erred.

rsv@Job:6:28 @ "But now, be pleased to look at me; for I will not lie to your face.

rsv@Job:7:3 @ so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.

rsv@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and come to their end without hope.

rsv@Job:7:7 @ "Remember that my life is a breath; my eye will never again see good.

rsv@Job:7:8 @ The eye of him who sees me will behold me no more; while thy eyes are upon me, I shall be gone.

rsv@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud fades and vanishes, so he who goes down to Sheol does not come up;

rsv@Job:7:12 @ Am I the sea, or a sea monster, that thou settest a guard over me?

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

rsv@Job:7:14 @ then thou dost scare me with dreams and terrify me with visions,

rsv@Job:7:16 @ I loathe my life; I would not live for ever. Let me alone, for my days are a breath.

rsv@Job:7:18 @ dost visit him every morning, and test him every moment?

rsv@Job:7:19 @ How long wilt thou not look away from me, nor let me alone till I swallow my spittle?

rsv@Job:7:20 @ If I sin, what do I do to thee, thou watcher of men? Why hast thou made me thy mark? Why have I become a burden to thee?

rsv@Job:7:21 @ Why dost thou not pardon my transgression and take away my iniquity? For now I shall lie in the earth; thou wilt seek me, but I shall not be."

rsv@Job:8:20 @ "Behold, God will not reject a blameless man, nor take the hand of evildoers.

rsv@Job:8:22 @ Those who hate you will be clothed with shame, and the tent of the wicked will be no more."

rsv@Job:9:3 @ If one wished to contend with him, one could not answer him once in a thousand times.

rsv@Job:9:11 @ Lo, he passes by me, and I see him not; he moves on, but I do not perceive him.

rsv@Job:9:15 @ Though I am innocent, I cannot answer him; I must appeal for mercy to my accuser.

rsv@Job:9:16 @ If I summoned him and he answered me, I would not believe that he was listening to my voice.

rsv@Job:9:17 @ For he crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause;

rsv@Job:9:18 @ he will not let me get my breath, but fills me with bitterness.

rsv@Job:9:20 @ Though I am innocent, my own mouth would condemn me; though I am blameless, he would prove me perverse.

rsv@Job:9:21 @ I am blameless; I regard not myself; I loathe my life.

rsv@Job:9:22 @ It is all one; therefore I say, he destroys both the blameless and the wicked.

rsv@Job:9:28 @ I become afraid of all my suffering, for I know thou wilt not hold me innocent.

rsv@Job:9:31 @ yet thou wilt plunge me into a pit, and my own clothes will abhor me.

rsv@Job:9:32 @ For he is not a man, as I am, that I might answer him, that we should come to trial together.

rsv@Job:9:34 @ Let him take his rod away from me, and let not dread of him terrify me.

rsv@Job:10:2 @ I will say to God, Do not condemn me; let me know why thou dost contend against me.

rsv@Job:10:8 @ Thy hands fashioned and made me; and now thou dost turn about and destroy me.

rsv@Job:10:9 @ Remember that thou hast made me of clay; and wilt thou turn me to dust again?

rsv@Job:10:10 @ Didst thou not pour me out like milk and curdle me like cheese?

rsv@Job:10:11 @ Thou didst clothe me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews.

rsv@Job:10:12 @ Thou hast granted me life and steadfast love; and thy care has preserved my spirit.

rsv@Job:10:14 @ If I sin, thou dost mark me, and dost not acquit me of my iniquity.

rsv@Job:10:15 @ If I am wicked, woe to me! If I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head, for I am filled with disgrace and look upon my affliction.

rsv@Job:10:16 @ And if I lift myself up, thou dost hunt me like a lion, and again work wonders against me;

rsv@Job:10:17 @ thou dost renew thy witnesses against me, and increase thy vexation toward me; thou dost bring fresh hosts against me.

rsv@Job:10:18 @ "Why didst thou bring me forth from the womb? Would that I had died before any eye had seen me,

rsv@Job:10:20 @ Are not the days of my life few? Let me alone, that I may find a little comfort

rsv@Job:11:3 @ Should your babble silence men, and when you mock, shall no one shame you?

rsv@Job:11:9 @ Its measure is longer than the earth, and broader than the sea.

rsv@Job:11:10 @ If he passes through, and imprisons, and calls to judgment, who can hinder him?

rsv@Job:11:11 @ For he knows worthless men; when he sees iniquity, will he not consider it?

rsv@Job:11:16 @ You will forget your misery; you will remember it as waters that have passed away.

rsv@Job:12:4 @ I am a laughingstock to my friends; I, who called upon God and he answered me, a just and blameless man, am a laughingstock.

rsv@Job:12:20 @ He deprives of speech those who are trusted, and takes away the discernment of the elders.

rsv@Job:13:13 @ "Let me have silence, and I will speak, and let come on me what may.

rsv@Job:13:15 @ Behold, he will slay me; I have no hope; yet I will defend my ways to his face.

rsv@Job:13:16 @ This will be my salvation, that a godless man shall not come before him.

rsv@Job:13:19 @ Who is there that will contend with me? For then I would be silent and die.

rsv@Job:13:20 @ Only grant two things to me, then I will not hide myself from thy face:

rsv@Job:13:21 @ withdraw thy hand far from me, and let not dread of thee terrify me.

rsv@Job:13:22 @ Then call, and I will answer; or let me speak, and do thou reply to me.

rsv@Job:13:23 @ How many are my iniquities and my sins? Make me know my transgression and my sin.

rsv@Job:13:24 @ Why dost thou hide thy face, and count me as thy enemy?

rsv@Job:13:26 @ For thou writest bitter things against me, and makest me inherit the iniquities of my youth.

rsv@Job:13:28 @ Man wastes away like a rotten thing, like a garment that is moth-eaten.

rsv@Job:14:2 @ He comes forth like a flower, and withers; he flees like a shadow, and continues not.

rsv@Job:14:3 @ And dost thou open thy eyes upon such a one and bring him into judgment with thee?

rsv@Job:14:13 @ Oh that thou wouldest hide me in Sheol, that thou wouldest conceal me until thy wrath be past, that thou wouldest appoint me a set time, and remember me!

rsv@Job:14:14 @ If a man die, shall he live again? All the days of my service I would wait, till my release should come.

rsv@Job:14:21 @ His sons come to honor, and he does not know it; they are brought low, and he perceives it not.

rsv@Job:15:4 @ But you are doing away with the fear of God, and hindering meditation before God.

rsv@Job:15:17 @ "I will show you, hear me; and what I have seen I will declare

rsv@Job:15:18 @ (what wise men have told, and their fathers have not hidden,

rsv@Job:15:32 @ It will be paid in full before his time, and his branch will not be green.

rsv@Job:15:34 @ For the company of the godless is barren, and fire consumes the tents of bribery.

rsv@Job:16:6 @ "If I speak, my pain is not assuaged, and if I forbear, how much of it leaves me?

rsv@Job:16:7 @ Surely now God has worn me out; he has made desolate all my company.

rsv@Job:16:8 @ And he has shriveled me up, which is a witness against me; and my leanness has risen up against me, it testifies to my face.

rsv@Job:16:9 @ He has torn me in his wrath, and hated me; he has gnashed his teeth at me; my adversary sharpens his eyes against me.

rsv@Job:16:10 @ Men have gaped at me with their mouth, they have struck me insolently upon the cheek, they mass themselves together against me.

rsv@Job:16:11 @ God gives me up to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked.

rsv@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, and he broke me asunder; he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces; he set me up as his target,

rsv@Job:16:13 @ his archers surround me. He slashes open my kidneys, and does not spare; he pours out my gall on the ground.

rsv@Job:16:14 @ He breaks me with breach upon breach; he runs upon me like a warrior.

rsv@Job:16:19 @ Even now, behold, my witness is in heaven, and he that vouches for me is on high.

rsv@Job:16:20 @ My friends scorn me; my eye pours out tears to God,

rsv@Job:17:8 @ Upright men are appalled at this, and the innocent stirs himself up against the godless.

rsv@Job:17:10 @ But you, come on again, all of you, and I shall not find a wise man among you.

rsv@Job:18:5 @ "Yea, the light of the wicked is put out, and the flame of his fire does not shine.

rsv@Job:19:11 @ He has kindled his wrath against me, and counts me as his adversary.

rsv@Job:19:12 @ His troops come on together; they have cast up siegeworks against me, and encamp round about my tent.

rsv@Job:19:13 @ "He has put my brethren far from me, and my acquaintances are wholly estranged from me.

rsv@Job:19:14 @ My kinsfolk and my close friends have failed me;

rsv@Job:19:15 @ the guests in my house have forgotten me; my maidservants count me as a stranger; I have become an alien in their eyes.

rsv@Proverbs:30:18 @ Three things are too wonderful for me; four I do not understand:

rsv@Proverbs:30:22 @ a slave when he becomes king, and a fool when he is filled with food;

rsv@Proverbs:30:25 @ the ants are a people not strong, yet they provide their food in the summer;

rsv@Proverbs:30:26 @ the badgers are a people not mighty, yet they make their homes in the rocks;

rsv@Proverbs:31:3 @ Give not your strength to women, your ways to those who destroy kings.

rsv@Proverbs:31:7 @ let them drink and forget their poverty, and remember their misery no more.

rsv@Proverbs:31:14 @ She is like the ships of the merchant, she brings her food from afar.

rsv@Proverbs:31:18 @ She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp does not go out at night.

rsv@Proverbs:31:24 @ She makes linen garments and sells them; she delivers girdles to the merchant.

rsv@Proverbs:31:25 @ Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.

rsv@Proverbs:31:29 @ "Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all."

rsv@Ecclesiastes:1:4 @ A generation goes, and a generation comes, but the earth remains for ever.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:1:11 @ There is no remembrance of former things, nor will there be any remembrance of later things yet to happen among those who come after.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:1:13 @ And I applied my mind to seek and to search out by wisdom all that is done under heaven; it is an unhappy business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:1:16 @ I said to myself, "I have acquired great wisdom, surpassing all who were over Jerusalem before me; and my mind has had great experience of wisdom and knowledge."

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:1 @ I said to myself, "Come now, I will make a test of pleasure; enjoy yourself." But behold, this also was vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:3 @ I searched with my mind how to cheer my body with wine--my mind still guiding me 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 during the few days of their life.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:7 @ I bought male and female slaves, and had slaves who were born in my house; I had also great possessions of herds and flocks, more than any who had been before me in Jerusalem.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:8 @ I also gathered for myself silver and gold and the treasure of kings and provinces; I got singers, both men and women, and many concubines, man's delight.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:9 @ So I became great and surpassed all who were before me in Jerusalem; also my wisdom remained with me.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:12 @ So I turned to consider wisdom and madness and folly; for what can the man do who comes after the king? Only what he has already done.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:14 @ The wise man has his eyes in his head, but the fool walks in darkness; and yet I perceived that one fate comes to all of them.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:15 @ Then I said to myself, "What befalls the fool will befall me also; why then have I been so very wise?" And I said to myself that this also is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:16 @ For of the wise man as of the fool there is no enduring remembrance, seeing that in the days to come all will have been long forgotten. How the wise man dies just like the fool!

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:17 @ So I hated life, because what is done under the sun was grievous to me; for all is vanity and a striving after wind.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:18 @ I hated all my toil in which I had toiled under the sun, seeing that I must leave it to the man who will come after me;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:21 @ because sometimes a man who has toiled with wisdom and knowledge and skill must leave all to be enjoyed by a man who did not toil for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:24 @ There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and find enjoyment in his toil. This also, I saw, is from the hand of God;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:2:25 @ for apart from him who can eat or who can have enjoyment?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:1 @ For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven:

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:2 @ a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:3 @ a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:4 @ a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:5 @ a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:6 @ a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:7 @ a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:8 @ a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:10 @ I have seen the business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:11 @ He has made everything beautiful in its time; also he has put eternity into man's mind, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:14 @ I know that whatever God does endures for ever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; God has made it so, in order that men should fear before him.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:17 @ I said in my heart, God will judge the righteous and the wicked, for he has appointed a time for every matter, and for every work.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:18 @ I said in my heart with regard to the sons of men that God is testing them to show them that they are but beasts.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:19 @ For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same; as one dies, so dies the other. They all have the same breath, and man has no advantage over the beasts; for all is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Then I saw that all toil and all skill in work come from a man's envy of his neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:16 @ there was no end of all the people; he was over all of them. Yet those who come later will not rejoice in him. Surely this also is vanity and a striving after wind.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:3 @ For a dream comes with much business, and a fool's voice with many words.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:6 @ Let not your mouth lead you into sin, and do not say before the messenger that it was a mistake; why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:15 @ As he came from his mother's womb he shall go again, naked as he came, and shall take nothing for his toil, which he may carry away in his hand.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:16 @ This also is a grievous evil: just as he came, so shall he go; and what gain has he that he toiled for the wind,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:17 @ and spent all his days in darkness and grief, in much vexation and sickness and resentment?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:18 @ Behold, what I have seen to be good and to be fitting is to eat and drink and find enjoyment in all the toil with which one toils under the sun the few days of his life which God has given him, for this is his lot.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:19 @ Every man also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and power to enjoy them, and to accept his lot and find enjoyment in his toil--this is the gift of God.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:20 @ For he will not much remember the days of his life because God keeps him occupied with joy in his heart.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:1 @ There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it lies heavy upon men:

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:3 @ If a man begets a hundred children, and lives many years, so that the days of his years are many, but he does not enjoy life's good things, and also has no burial, I say that an untimely birth is better off than he.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:4 @ For it comes into vanity and goes into darkness, and in darkness its name is covered;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ Whatever has come to be has already been named, and it is known what man is, and that he is not able to dispute with one stronger than he.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:1 @ A good name is better than precious ointment; and the day of death, than the day of birth.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:2 @ It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting; for this is the end of all men, and the living will lay it to heart.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:10 @ Say not, "Why were the former days better than these?" For it is not from wisdom that you ask this.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:17 @ Be not wicked overmuch, neither be a fool; why should you die before your time?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:18 @ It is good that you should take hold of this, and from that withhold not your hand; for he who fears God shall come forth from them all.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:21 @ Do not give heed to all the things that men say, lest you hear your servant cursing you;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:22 @ your heart knows that many times you have yourself cursed others.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:23 @ All this I have tested by wisdom; I said, "I will be wise"; but it was far from me.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:4 @ For the word of the king is supreme, and who may say to him, "What are you doing?"

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:5 @ He who obeys a command will meet no harm, and the mind of a wise man will know the time and way.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:6 @ For every matter has its time and way, although man's trouble lies heavy upon him.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:11 @ Because sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the sons of men is fully set to do evil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:12 @ Though a sinner does evil a hundred times and prolongs his life, yet I know that it will be well with those who fear God, because they fear before him;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @ There is a vanity which takes place on earth, that there are righteous men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked, and there are wicked men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @ And I commend enjoyment, for man has no good thing under the sun but to eat and drink, and enjoy himself, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of life which God gives him under the sun.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ since one fate comes to all, to the righteous and the wicked, to the good and the evil, to the clean and the unclean, to him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good man, so is the sinner; and he who swears is as he who shuns an oath.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @ This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that one fate comes to all; also the hearts of men are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:5 @ For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing, and they have no more reward; but the memory of them is lost.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:7 @ Go, eat your bread with enjoyment, and drink your wine with a merry heart; for God has already approved what you do.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:8 @ Let your garments be always white; let not oil be lacking on your head.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @ Again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to the men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:12 @ For man does not know his time. Like fish which are taken in an evil net, and like birds which are caught in a snare, so the sons of men are snared at an evil time, when it suddenly falls upon them.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ I have also seen this example of wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great to me.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:14 @ There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:15 @ But there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:1 @ Dead flies make the perfumer's ointment give off an evil odor; so a little folly outweighs wisdom and honor.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:4 @ If the anger of the ruler rises against you, do not leave your place, for deference will make amends for great offenses.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:11 @ If the serpent bites before it is charmed, there is no advantage in a charmer.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:12 @ The words of a wise man's mouth win him favor, but the lips of a fool consume him.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:17 @ Happy are you, O land, when your king is the son of free men, and your princes feast at the proper time, for strength, and not for drunkenness!

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:20 @ Even in your thought, do not curse the king, nor in your bedchamber curse the rich; for a bird of the air will carry your voice, or some winged creature tell the matter.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:5 @ As you do not know how the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a woman with child, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:8 @ For if a man lives many years, let him rejoice in them all; but let him remember that the days of darkness will be many. All that comes is vanity.

rsv@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 the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:1 @ Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, when you will say, "I have no pleasure in them";

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:3 @ in the day when the keepers of the house tremble, and the strong men are bent, and the grinders cease because they are few, and those that look through the windows are dimmed,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:5 @ they are afraid also of what is high, and terrors are in the way; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along and desire fails; because man goes to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:13 @ The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God, and keep his commandments; for this is the whole duty of man.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:14 @ For God will bring every deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether good or evil.

rsv@Songs:1:2 @ O that you would kiss me with the kisses of your mouth! For your love is better than wine,

rsv@Songs:1:6 @ Do not gaze at me because I am swarthy, because the sun has scorched me. My mother's sons were angry with me, they made me keeper of the vineyards; but, my own vineyard I have not kept!

rsv@Songs:1:7 @ Tell me, you whom my soul loves, where you pasture your flock, where you make it lie down at noon; for why should I be like one who wanders beside the flocks of your companions?

rsv@Songs:1:14 @ My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms in the vineyards of Enge'di.

rsv@Songs:2:3 @ As an apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among young men. With great delight I sat in his shadow, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.

rsv@Songs:2:4 @ He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.

rsv@Songs:2:5 @ Sustain me with raisins, refresh me with apples; for I am sick with love.

rsv@Songs:3:3 @ The watchmen found me, as they went about in the city. "Have you seen him whom my soul loves?"

rsv@Songs:3:4 @ Scarcely had I passed them, when I found him whom my soul loves. I held him, and would not let him go until I had brought him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.

rsv@Songs:4:3 @ Your lips are like a scarlet thread, and your mouth is lovely. Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate behind your veil.

rsv@Songs:4:6 @ Until the day breathes and the shadows flee, I will hie me to the mountain of myrrh and the hill of frankincense.

rsv@Songs:4:8 @ Come with me from Lebanon, my bride; come with me from Lebanon. Depart from the peak of Ama'na, from the peak of Senir and Hermon, from the dens of lions, from the mountains of leopards.

rsv@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips distil nectar, my bride; honey and milk are under your tongue; the scent of your garments is like the scent of Lebanon.

rsv@Songs:4:13 @ Your shoots are an orchard of pomegranates with all choicest fruits, henna with nard,

rsv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind, and come, O south wind! Blow upon my garden, let its fragrance be wafted abroad. Let my beloved come to his garden, and eat its choicest fruits.

rsv@Songs:5:1 @ I come to my garden, my sister, my bride, I gather my myrrh with my spice, I eat my honeycomb with my honey, I drink my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends, and drink: drink deeply, O lovers!

rsv@Songs:5:2 @ I slept, but my heart was awake. Hark! my beloved is knocking. "Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my perfect one; for my head is wet with dew, my locks with the drops of the night."

rsv@Songs:5:3 @ I had put off my garment, how could I put it on? I had bathed my feet, how could I soil them?

rsv@Songs:5:4 @ My beloved put his hand to the latch, and my heart was thrilled within me.

rsv@Songs:5:6 @ I opened to my beloved, but my beloved had turned and gone. My soul failed me when he spoke. I sought him, but found him not; I called him, but he gave no answer.

rsv@Songs:5:7 @ The watchmen found me, as they went about in the city; they beat me, they wounded me, they took away my mantle, those watchmen of the walls.

rsv@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 thus adjure us?

rsv@Songs:6:1 @ Whither has your beloved gone, O fairest among women? Whither has your beloved turned, that we may seek him with you?

rsv@Songs:6:4 @ You are beautiful as Tirzah, my love, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.

rsv@Songs:6:5 @ Turn away your eyes from me, for they disturb me-- Your hair is like a flock of goats, moving down the slopes of Gilead.

rsv@Songs:6:6 @ Your teeth are like a flock of ewes, that have come up from the washing, all of them bear twins, not one among them is bereaved.

rsv@Songs:6:7 @ Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate behind your veil.

rsv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down to the nut orchard, to look at the blossoms of the valley, to see whether the vines had budded, whether the pomegranates were in bloom.

rsv@Songs:6:12 @ Before I was aware, my fancy set me in a chariot beside my prince.

rsv@Songs:7:5 @ Your head crowns you like Carmel, and your flowing locks are like purple; a king is held captive in the tresses.

rsv@Songs:7:10 @ I am my beloved's, and his desire is for me.

rsv@Songs:7:11 @ Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the fields, and lodge in the villages;

rsv@Songs:7:12 @ let us go out early to the vineyards, and see whether the vines have budded, whether the grape blossoms have opened and the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.

rsv@Songs:8:1 @ O that you were like a brother to me, that nursed at my mother's breast! If I met you outside, I would kiss you, and none would despise me.

rsv@Songs:8:2 @ I would lead you and bring you into the house of my mother, and into the chamber of her that conceived me. I would give you spiced wine to drink, the juice of my pomegranates.

rsv@Songs:8:3 @ O that his left hand were under my head, and that his right hand embraced me!

rsv@Songs:8:6 @ Set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm; for love is strong as death, jealousy is cruel as the grave. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a most vehement flame.

rsv@Songs:8:9 @ If she is a wall, we will build upon her a battlement of silver; but if she is a door, we will enclose her with boards of cedar.

rsv@Songs:8:13 @ O you who dwell in the gardens, my companions are listening for your voice; let me hear it.
