Hosea:1:3 @So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.
nasb@Hosea:2:3 @Or I will strip her naked And expose her as on the day when she was born. I will also make her like a wilderness, Make her like desert land And slay her with thirst.
nasb@Hosea:2:13" @I will punish her for the days of the Baals When she used to offer sacrifices to them And adorn herself with her earrings and jewelry, And follow her lovers, so that she forgot Me," declares the LORD.
nasb@Hosea:2:23" @I will sow her for Myself in the land. I will also have compassion on her who had not obtained compassion, And I will say to those who were not My people, 'You are My people!' And they will say, 'You are my God!'"
nasb@Hosea:3:1 @Then the LORD said to me, "Go again, love a woman who is loved by her husband, yet an adulteress, even as the LORD loves the sons of Israel, though they turn to other gods and love raisin cakes."
nasb@Hosea:3:2 @So I bought her for myself for fifteen shekels of silver and a homer and a half of barley.
nasb@Hosea:3:3 @Then I said to her, "You shall stay with me for many days. You shall not play the harlot, nor shall you have a man; so I will also be toward you."
nasb@Hosea:3:4 @For the sons of Israel will remain for many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar and without ephod or household idols.
nasb@Hosea:3:5 @Afterward the sons of Israel will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king; and they will come trembling to the LORD and to His goodness in the last days.
nasb@Hosea:4:3 @Therefore the land mourns, And everyone who lives in it languishes Along with the beasts of the field and the birds of the sky, And also the fish of the sea disappear.
nasb@Hosea:4:13 @They offer sacrifices on the tops of the mountains And burn incense on the hills, Under oak, poplar and terebinth, Because their shade is pleasant. Therefore your daughters play the harlot And your brides commit adultery.
nasb@Hosea:5:3 @I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from Me; For now, O Ephraim, you have played the harlot, Israel has defiled itself.
nasb@Hosea:5:13 @When Ephraim saw his sickness, And Judah his wound, Then Ephraim went to Assyria And sent to King Jareb. But he is unable to heal you, Or to cure you of your wound.
nasb@Hosea:5:3" @So let us know, let us press on to know the LORD. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain, Like the spring rain watering the earth."
nasb@Hosea:6:3 @With their wickedness they make the king glad, And the princes with their lies.
nasb@Hosea:6:13 @Woe to them, for they have strayed from Me! Destruction is theirs, for they have rebelled against Me! I would redeem them, but they speak lies against Me.
nasb@Hosea:7:3 @Israel has rejected the good; The enemy will pursue him.
nasb@Hosea:7:13 @As for My sacrificial gifts, They sacrifice the flesh and eat it, But the LORD has taken no delight in them. Now He will remember their iniquity, And punish them for their sins; They will return to Egypt.
nasb@Hosea:8:3 @They will not remain in the LORD'S land, But Ephraim will return to Egypt, And in Assyria they will eat unclean food.
nasb@Hosea:8:13 @Ephraim, as I have seen, Is planted in a pleasant meadow like Tyre; But Ephraim will bring out his children for slaughter.
nasb@Hosea:9:3 @Surely now they will say, "We have no king, For we do not revere the LORD. As for the king, what can he do for us?"
nasb@Hosea:9:13 @You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped injustice, You have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your way, in your numerous warriors,
nasb@Hosea:10:3 @Yet it is I who taught Ephraim to walk, I took them in My arms; But they did not know that I healed them.
nasb@Hosea:11:3 @In the womb he took his brother by the heel, And in his maturity he contended with God.
nasb@Hosea:11:13 @But by a prophet the LORD brought Israel from Egypt, And by a prophet he was kept.
nasb@Hosea:12:3 @Therefore they will be like the morning cloud And like dew which soon disappears, Like chaff which is blown away from the threshing floor And like smoke from a chimney.
nasb@Hosea:12:13 @The pains of childbirth come upon him; He is not a wise son, For it is not the time that he should delay at the opening of the womb.
nasb@Hosea:13:1 @Return, O Israel, to the LORD your God, For you have stumbled because of your iniquity.
nasb@Hosea:13:2 @Take words with you and return to the LORD. Say to Him, " Take away all iniquity And receive us graciously, That we may present the fruit of our lips.
nasb@Hosea:13:3" @Assyria will not save us, We will not ride on horses; Nor will we say again, ' Our god,' To the work of our hands; For in You the orphan finds mercy."
nasb@Hosea:13:4 @I will heal their apostasy, I will love them freely, For My anger has turned away from them.
nasb@Hosea:13:5 @I will be like the dew to Israel; He will blossom like the lily, And he will take root like the cedars of Lebanon.
nasb@Hosea:13:6 @His shoots will sprout, And his beauty will be like the olive tree And his fragrance like the cedars of Lebanon.
nasb@Hosea:13:7 @Those who live in his shadow Will again raise grain, And they will blossom like the vine. His renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.
nasb@Hosea:13:8 @O Ephraim, what more have I to do with idols? It is I who answer and look after you. I am like a luxuriant cypress; From Me comes your fruit.
nasb@Hosea:13:9 @Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; Whoever is discerning, let him know them. For the ways of the LORD are right, And the righteous will walk in them, But transgressors will stumble in them.
nasb@Joel:1:3 @Tell your sons about it, And let your sons tell their sons, And their sons the next generation.
nasb@Joel:1:13 @Gird yourselves with sackcloth And lament, O priests; Wail, O ministers of the altar! Come, spend the night in sackcloth O ministers of my God, For the grain offering and the drink offering Are withheld from the house of your God.
nasb@Joel:2:3 @A fire consumes before them And behind them a flame burns. The land is like the garden of Eden before them But a desolate wilderness behind them, And nothing at all escapes them.
nasb@Joel:2:13 @And rend your heart and not your garments." Now return to the LORD your God, For He is gracious and compassionate, Slow to anger, abounding in lovingkindness And relenting of evil.
nasb@Joel:2:23 @So rejoice, O sons of Zion, And be glad in the LORD your God; For He has given you the early rain for your vindication. And He has poured down for you the rain, The early and latter rain as before.
nasb@Joel:2:30" @I will display wonders in the sky and on the earth, Blood, fire and columns of smoke.
nasb@Joel:2:31" @The sun will be turned into darkness And the moon into blood Before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes.
nasb@Joel:2:32" @And it will come about that whoever calls on the name of the LORD Will be delivered; For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem There will be those who escape, As the LORD has said, Even among the survivors whom the LORD calls.
nasb@Joel:3:1" @For behold, in those days and at that time, When I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
nasb@Joel:3:2 @I will gather all the nations And bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. Then I will enter into judgment with them there On behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; And they have divided up My land.
nasb@Joel:3:3" @They have also cast lots for My people, Traded a boy for a harlot And sold a girl for wine that they may drink.
nasb@Joel:3:4" @Moreover, what are you to Me, O Tyre, Sidon and all the regions of Philistia? Are you rendering Me a recompense? But if you do recompense Me, swiftly and speedily I will return your recompense on your head.
nasb@Joel:3:5" @Since you have taken My silver and My gold, brought My precious treasures to your temples,
nasb@Joel:3:6 @and sold the sons of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks in order to remove them far from their territory,
nasb@Joel:3:7 @behold, I am going to arouse them from the place where you have sold them, and return your recompense on your head.
nasb@Joel:3:8" @Also I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a distant nation," for the LORD has spoken.
nasb@Joel:3:9 @Proclaim this among the nations- Prepare a war; rouse the mighty men! Let all the soldiers draw near, let them come up!
nasb@Joel:3:10 @Beat your plowshares into swords And your pruning hooks into spears; Let the weak say, "I am a mighty man."
nasb@Joel:3:11 @Hasten and come, all you surrounding nations, And gather yourselves there. Bring down, O LORD, Your mighty ones.
nasb@Joel:3:12 @Let the nations be aroused And come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat, For there I will sit to judge All the surrounding nations.
nasb@Joel:3:13 @Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, tread, for the wine press is full; The vats overflow, for their wickedness is great.
nasb@Joel:3:14 @Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
nasb@Joel:3:15 @The sun and moon grow dark And the stars lose their brightness.
nasb@Joel:3:16 @The LORD roars from Zion And utters His voice from Jerusalem, And the heavens and the earth tremble. But the LORD is a refuge for His people And a stronghold to the sons of Israel.
nasb@Joel:3:17 @Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain. So Jerusalem will be holy, And strangers will pass through it no more.
nasb@Joel:3:18 @And in that day The mountains will drip with sweet wine, And the hills will flow with milk, And all the brooks of Judah will flow with water; And a spring will go out from the house of the LORD To water the valley of Shittim.
nasb@Joel:3:19 @Egypt will become a waste, And Edom will become a desolate wilderness, Because of the violence done to the sons of Judah, In whose land they have shed innocent blood.
nasb@Joel:3:20 @But Judah will be inhabited forever And Jerusalem for all generations.
nasb@Joel:3:21 @And I will avenge their blood which I have not avenged, For the LORD dwells in Zion.
nasb@Amos:1:3 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Damascus and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they threshed Gilead with implements of sharp iron.
nasb@Amos:1:13 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead In order to enlarge their borders.
nasb@Amos:2:3" @I will also cut off the judge from her midst And slay all her princes with him," says the LORD.
nasb@Amos:2:13" @Behold, I am weighted down beneath you As a wagon is weighted down when filled with sheaves.
nasb@Amos:2:3 @Hear this word which the LORD has spoken against you, sons of Israel, against the entire family which He brought up from the land of Egypt-
nasb@Amos:2:3 @Do two men walk together unless they have made an appointment?
nasb@Amos:2:13" @Hear and testify against the house of Jacob," Declares the Lord GOD, the God of hosts.
nasb@Amos:3:1 @Hear this word, you cows of Bashan who are on the mountain of Samaria, Who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, Who say to your husbands, "Bring now, that we may drink!"
nasb@Amos:3:2 @The Lord GOD has sworn by His holiness, "Behold, the days are coming upon you When they will take you away with meat hooks, And the last of you with fish hooks.
nasb@Amos:3:3" @You will go out through breaches in the walls, Each one straight before her, And you will be cast to Harmon," declares the LORD.
nasb@Amos:3:4" @Enter Bethel and transgress; In Gilgal multiply transgression! Bring your sacrifices every morning, Your tithes every three days.
nasb@Amos:3:5" @Offer a thank offering also from that which is leavened, And proclaim freewill offerings, make them known. For so you love to do, you sons of Israel," Declares the Lord GOD.
nasb@Amos:3:6" @But I gave you also cleanness of teeth in all your cities And lack of bread in all your places, Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.
nasb@Amos:3:7" @Furthermore, I withheld the rain from you While there were still three months until harvest. Then I would send rain on one city And on another city I would not send rain; One part would be rained on, While the part not rained on would dry up.
nasb@Amos:3:8" @So two or three cities would stagger to another city to drink water, But would not be satisfied; Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.
nasb@Amos:3:9" @I smote you with scorching wind and mildew; And the caterpillar was devouring Your many gardens and vineyards, fig trees and olive trees; Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.
nasb@Amos:3:10" @I sent a plague among you after the manner of Egypt; I slew your young men by the sword along with your captured horses, And I made the stench of your camp rise up in your nostrils; Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.
nasb@Amos:3:11" @I overthrew you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, And you were like a firebrand snatched from a blaze; Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.
nasb@Amos:3:12" @Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel; Because I will do this to you, Prepare to meet your God, O Israel."
nasb@Amos:3:13 @For behold, He who forms mountains and creates the wind And declares to man what are His thoughts, He who makes dawn into darkness And treads on the high places of the earth, The LORD God of hosts is His name.
nasb@Amos:4:3 @For thus says the Lord GOD, "The city which goes forth a thousand strong Will have a hundred left, And the one which goes forth a hundred strong Will have ten left to the house of Israel."
nasb@Amos:4:13 @Therefore at such a time the prudent person keeps silent, for it is an evil time.
nasb@Amos:4:23" @Take away from Me the noise of your songs; I will not even listen to the sound of your harps.
nasb@Amos:5:3 @Do you put off the day of calamity, And would you bring near the seat of violence?
nasb@Amos:5:13 @You who rejoice in Lodebar, And say, "Have we not by our own strength taken Karnaim for ourselves?"
nasb@Amos:6:3 @The LORD changed His mind about this. "It shall not be," said the LORD.
nasb@Amos:6:13" @But no longer prophesy at Bethel, for it is a sanctuary of the king and a royal residence."
nasb@Amos:7:3" @The songs of the palace will turn to wailing in that day," declares the Lord GOD. "Many will be the corpses; in every place they will cast them forth in silence."
nasb@Amos:7:13" @In that day the beautiful virgins And the young men will faint from thirst.
nasb@Amos:7:3" @Though they hide on the summit of Carmel, I will search them out and take them from there; And though they conceal themselves from My sight on the floor of the sea, From there I will command the serpent and it will bite them.
nasb@Amos:7:13" @Behold, days are coming," declares the LORD, "When the plowman will overtake the reaper And the treader of grapes him who sows seed; When the mountains will drip sweet wine And all the hills will be dissolved.
nasb@Obadiah:0:3" @The arrogance of your heart has deceived you, You who live in the clefts of the rock, In the loftiness of your dwelling place, Who say in your heart, ' Who will bring me down to earth?'
nasb@Obadiah:0:13" @Do not enter the gate of My people In the day of their disaster. Yes, you, do not gloat over their calamity In the day of their disaster. And do not loot their wealth In the day of their disaster.
nasb@Jonah:0:3 @But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. So he went down to Joppa, found a ship which was going to Tarshish, paid the fare and went down into it to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.
nasb@Jonah:0:13 @However, the men rowed desperately to return to land but they could not, for the sea was becoming even stormier against them.
nasb@Jonah:1:3" @For You had cast me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, And the current engulfed me. All Your breakers and billows passed over me.
nasb@Jonah:1:3 @Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the second time, saying,
nasb@Jonah:1:3 @So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, a three days' walk.
nasb@Jonah:2:3" @Therefore now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for death is better to me than life."
nasb@Micah:1:3 @For behold, the LORD is coming forth from His place. He will come down and tread on the high places of the earth.
nasb@Micah:1:13 @Harness the chariot to the team of horses, O inhabitant of Lachish-- She was the beginning of sin To the daughter of Zion-- Because in you were found The rebellious acts of Israel.
nasb@Micah:2:3 @Therefore thus says the LORD, "Behold, I am planning against this family a calamity From which you cannot remove your necks; And you will not walk haughtily, For it will be an evil time.
nasb@Micah:2:13" @The breaker goes up before them; They break out, pass through the gate and go out by it. So their king goes on before them, And the LORD at their head."
nasb@Micah:2:3 @And I said, " Hear now, heads of Jacob And rulers of the house of Israel. Is it not for you to know justice?
nasb@Micah:2:3 @Who eat the flesh of my people, Strip off their skin from them, Break their bones And chop them up as for the pot And as meat in a kettle."
nasb@Micah:3:1 @And it will come about in the last days That the mountain of the house of the LORD Will be established as the chief of the mountains. It will be raised above the hills, And the peoples will stream to it.
nasb@Micah:3:2 @Many nations will come and say, " Come and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD And to the house of the God of Jacob, That He may teach us about His ways And that we may walk in His paths." For from Zion will go forth the law, Even the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
nasb@Micah:3:3 @And He will judge between many peoples And render decisions for mighty, distant nations. Then they will hammer their swords into plowshares And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation will not lift up sword against nation, And never again will they train for war.
nasb@Micah:3:4 @Each of them will sit under his vine And under his fig tree, With no one to make them afraid, For the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken.
nasb@Micah:3:5 @Though all the peoples walk Each in the name of his god, As for us, we will walk In the name of the LORD our God forever and ever.
nasb@Micah:3:6" @In that day," declares the LORD, "I will assemble the lame And gather the outcasts, Even those whom I have afflicted.
nasb@Micah:3:7" @I will make the lame a remnant And the outcasts a strong nation, And the LORD will reign over them in Mount Zion From now on and forever.
nasb@Micah:3:8" @As for you, tower of the flock, Hill of the daughter of Zion, To you it will come-- Even the former dominion will come, The kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
nasb@Micah:3:9" @Now, why do you cry out loudly? Is there no king among you, Or has your counselor perished, That agony has gripped you like a woman in childbirth?
nasb@Micah:3:10" @ Writhe and labor to give birth, Daughter of Zion, Like a woman in childbirth; For now you will go out of the city, Dwell in the field, And go to Babylon. There you will be rescued; There the LORD will redeem you From the hand of your enemies.
nasb@Micah:3:11" @And now many nations have been assembled against you Who say, 'Let her be polluted, And let our eyes gloat over Zion.'
nasb@Micah:3:12" @But they do not know the thoughts of the LORD, And they do not understand His purpose; For He has gathered them like sheaves to the threshing floor.
nasb@Micah:3:13" @Arise and thresh, daughter of Zion, For your horn I will make iron And your hoofs I will make bronze, That you may pulverize many peoples, That you may devote to the LORD their unjust gain And their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
nasb@Micah:3:5" @Now muster yourselves in troops, daughter of troops; They have laid siege against us; With a rod they will smite the judge of Israel on the cheek.
nasb@Micah:3:2" @But as for you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, Too little to be among the clans of Judah, From you One will go forth for Me to be ruler in Israel. His goings forth are from long ago, From the days of eternity."
nasb@Micah:3:3 @Therefore He will give them up until the time When she who is in labor has borne a child. Then the remainder of His brethren Will return to the sons of Israel.
nasb@Micah:3:4 @And He will arise and shepherd His flock In the strength of the LORD, In the majesty of the name of the LORD His God. And they will remain, Because at that time He will be great To the ends of the earth.
nasb@Micah:3:5 @This One will be our peace. When the Assyrian invades our land, When he tramples on our citadels, Then we will raise against him Seven shepherds and eight leaders of men.
nasb@Micah:3:6 @They will shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword, The land of Nimrod at its entrances; And He will deliver us from the Assyrian When he attacks our land And when he tramples our territory.
nasb@Micah:3:7 @Then the remnant of Jacob Will be among many peoples Like dew from the LORD, Like showers on vegetation Which do not wait for man Or delay for the sons of men.
nasb@Micah:3:8 @The remnant of Jacob Will be among the nations, Among many peoples Like a lion among the beasts of the forest, Like a young lion among flocks of sheep, Which, if he passes through, Tramples down and tears, And there is none to rescue.
nasb@Micah:3:9 @Your hand will be lifted up against your adversaries, And all your enemies will be cut off.
nasb@Micah:3:10" @It will be in that day," declares the LORD, " That I will cut off your horses from among you And destroy your chariots.
nasb@Micah:3:11" @I will also cut off the cities of your land And tear down all your fortifications.
nasb@Micah:3:12" @I will cut off sorceries from your hand, And you will have fortune-tellers no more.
nasb@Micah:3:13" @ I will cut off your carved images And your sacred pillars from among you, So that you will no longer bow down To the work of your hands.
nasb@Micah:3:14" @I will root out your Asherim from among you And destroy your cities.
nasb@Micah:3:15" @And I will execute vengeance in anger and wrath On the nations which have not obeyed."
nasb@Micah:3:6 @Hear now what the LORD is saying, "Arise, plead your case before the mountains, And let the hills hear your voice.
nasb@Micah:3:2" @Listen, you mountains, to the indictment of the LORD, And you enduring foundations of the earth, Because the LORD has a case against His people; Even with Israel He will dispute.
nasb@Micah:3:3" @ My people, what have I done to you, And how have I wearied you? Answer Me.
nasb@Micah:3:4" @Indeed, I brought you up from the land of Egypt And ransomed you from the house of slavery, And I sent before you Moses, Aaron and Miriam.
nasb@Micah:3:5" @My people, remember now What Balak king of Moab counseled And what Balaam son of Beor answered him, And from Shittim to Gilgal, So that you might know the righteous acts of the LORD."
nasb@Micah:3:6 @With what shall I come to the LORD And bow myself before the God on high? Shall I come to Him with burnt offerings, With yearling calves?
nasb@Micah:3:7 @Does the LORD take delight in thousands of rams, In ten thousand rivers of oil? Shall I present my firstborn for my rebellious acts, The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
nasb@Micah:3:8 @He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God?
nasb@Micah:3:9 @The voice of the LORD will call to the city-- And it is sound wisdom to fear Your name- "Hear, O tribe. Who has appointed its time?
nasb@Micah:3:10" @Is there yet a man in the wicked house, Along with treasures of wickedness And a short measure that is cursed?
nasb@Micah:3:11" @Can I justify wicked scales And a bag of deceptive weights?
nasb@Micah:3:12" @For the rich men of the city are full of violence, Her residents speak lies, And their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
nasb@Micah:3:13" @So also I will make you sick, striking you down, Desolating you because of your sins.
nasb@Micah:3:14" @You will eat, but you will not be satisfied, And your vileness will be in your midst. You will try to remove for safekeeping, But you will not preserve anything, And what you do preserve I will give to the sword.
nasb@Micah:3:15" @You will sow but you will not reap. You will tread the olive but will not anoint yourself with oil; And the grapes, but you will not drink wine.
nasb@Micah:3:16" @The statutes of Omri And all the works of the house of Ahab are observed; And in their devices you walk. Therefore I will give you up for destruction And your inhabitants for derision, And you will bear the reproach of My people."
nasb@Micah:4:3 @Concerning evil, both hands do it well. The prince asks, also the judge, for a bribe, And a great man speaks the desire of his soul; So they weave it together.
nasb@Micah:4:13 @And the earth will become desolate because of her inhabitants, On account of the fruit of their deeds.
nasb@Nahum:1:3 @The LORD is slow to anger and great in power, And the LORD will by no means leave the guilty unpunished. In whirlwind and storm is His way, And clouds are the dust beneath His feet.
nasb@Nahum:1:13" @So now, I will break his yoke bar from upon you, And I will tear off your shackles."
nasb@Nahum:2:3 @The shields of his mighty men are colored red, The warriors are dressed in scarlet, The chariots are enveloped in flashing steel When he is prepared to march, And the cypress spears are brandished.
nasb@Nahum:2:13" @Behold, I am against you," declares the LORD of hosts. "I will burn up her chariots in smoke, a sword will devour your young lions; I will cut off your prey from the land, and no longer will the voice of your messengers be heard."
nasb@Nahum:3:1 @Woe to the bloody city, completely full of lies and pillage; Her prey never departs.
nasb@Nahum:3:2 @The noise of the whip, The noise of the rattling of the wheel, Galloping horses And bounding chariots!
nasb@Nahum:3:3 @Horsemen charging, Swords flashing, spears gleaming, Many slain, a mass of corpses, And countless dead bodies-- They stumble over the dead bodies!
nasb@Nahum:3:4 @All because of the many harlotries of the harlot, The charming one, the mistress of sorceries, Who sells nations by her harlotries And families by her sorceries.
nasb@Nahum:3:5" @Behold, I am against you," declares the LORD of hosts; "And I will lift up your skirts over your face, And show to the nations your nakedness And to the kingdoms your disgrace.
nasb@Nahum:3:6" @I will throw filth on you And make you vile, And set you up as a spectacle.
nasb@Nahum:3:7" @And it will come about that all who see you Will shrink from you and say, 'Nineveh is devastated! Who will grieve for her?' Where will I seek comforters for you?"
nasb@Nahum:3:8 @Are you better than No-amon, Which was situated by the waters of the Nile, With water surrounding her, Whose rampart was the sea, Whose wall consisted of the sea?
nasb@Nahum:3:9 @Ethiopia was her might, And Egypt too, without limits. Put and Lubim were among her helpers.
nasb@Nahum:3:10 @Yet she became an exile, She went into captivity; Also her small children were dashed to pieces At the head of every street; They cast lots for her honorable men, And all her great men were bound with fetters.
nasb@Nahum:3:11 @You too will become drunk, You will be hidden. You too will search for a refuge from the enemy.
nasb@Nahum:3:12 @All your fortifications are fig trees with ripe fruit-- When shaken, they fall into the eater's mouth.
nasb@Nahum:3:13 @Behold, your people are women in your midst! The gates of your land are opened wide to your enemies; Fire consumes your gate bars.
nasb@Nahum:3:14 @Draw for yourself water for the siege! Strengthen your fortifications! Go into the clay and tread the mortar! Take hold of the brick mold!
nasb@Nahum:3:15 @There fire will consume you, The sword will cut you down; It will consume you as the locust does. Multiply yourself like the creeping locust, Multiply yourself like the swarming locust.
nasb@Nahum:3:16 @You have increased your traders more than the stars of heaven-- The creeping locust strips and flies away.
nasb@Nahum:3:17 @Your guardsmen are like the swarming locust. Your marshals are like hordes of grasshoppers Settling in the stone walls on a cold day. The sun rises and they flee, And the place where they are is not known.
nasb@Nahum:3:18 @Your shepherds are sleeping, O king of Assyria; Your nobles are lying down. Your people are scattered on the mountains And there is no one to regather them.
nasb@Nahum:3:19 @There is no relief for your breakdown, Your wound is incurable. All who hear about you Will clap their hands over you, For on whom has not your evil passed continuallyNULL
nasb@Habakkuk:1:3 @Why do You make me see iniquity, And cause me to look on wickedness? Yes, destruction and violence are before me; Strife exists and contention arises.
nasb@Habakkuk:1:13 @Your eyes are too pure to approve evil, And You can not look on wickedness with favor. Why do You look with favor On those who deal treacherously? Why are You silent when the wicked swallow up Those more righteous than they?
nasb@Habakkuk:2:3" @For the vision is yet for the appointed time; It hastens toward the goal and it will not fail. Though it tarries, wait for it; For it will certainly come, it will not delay.
nasb@Habakkuk:2:13" @Is it not indeed from the LORD of hosts That peoples toil for fire, And nations grow weary for nothing?
nasb@Habakkuk:3:1 @A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet, according to Shigionoth.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:2 @LORD, I have heard the report about You and I fear. O LORD, revive Your work in the midst of the years, In the midst of the years make it known; In wrath remember mercy.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:3 @God comes from Teman, And the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah. His splendor covers the heavens, And the earth is full of His praise.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:4 @His radiance is like the sunlight; He has rays flashing from His hand, And there is the hiding of His power.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:5 @Before Him goes pestilence, And plague comes after Him.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:6 @He stood and surveyed the earth; He looked and startled the nations. Yes, the perpetual mountains were shattered, The ancient hills collapsed. His ways are everlasting.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:7 @I saw the tents of Cushan under distress, The tent curtains of the land of Midian were trembling.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:8 @Did the LORD rage against the rivers, Or was Your anger against the rivers, Or was Your wrath against the sea, That You rode on Your horses, On Your chariots of salvation?
nasb@Habakkuk:3:9 @Your bow was made bare, The rods of chastisement were sworn. Selah. You cleaved the earth with rivers.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:10 @The mountains saw You and quaked; The downpour of waters swept by. The deep uttered forth its voice, It lifted high its hands.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:11 @Sun and moon stood in their places; They went away at the light of Your arrows, At the radiance of Your gleaming spear.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:12 @In indignation You marched through the earth; In anger You trampled the nations.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:13 @You went forth for the salvation of Your people, For the salvation of Your anointed. You struck the head of the house of the evil To lay him open from thigh to neck. Selah.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:14 @You pierced with his own spears The head of his throngs. They stormed in to scatter us; Their exultation was like those Who devour the oppressed in secret.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:15 @You trampled on the sea with Your horses, On the surge of many waters.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:16 @I heard and my inward parts trembled, At the sound my lips quivered. Decay enters my bones, And in my place I tremble. Because I must wait quietly for the day of distress, For the people to arise who will invade us.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:17 @Though the fig tree should not blossom And there be no fruit on the vines, Though the yield of the olive should fail And the fields produce no food, Though the flock should be cut off from the fold And there be no cattle in the stalls,
nasb@Habakkuk:3:18 @Yet I will exult in the LORD, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation.
nasb@Habakkuk:3:19 @The Lord GOD is my strength, And He has made my feet like hinds' feet, And makes me walk on my high places. For the choir director, on my stringed instruments.
nasb@Zephaniah:0:3" @I will remove man and beast; I will remove the birds of the sky And the fish of the sea, And the ruins along with the wicked; And I will cut off man from the face of the earth," declares the LORD.
nasb@Zephaniah:0:13" @Moreover, their wealth will become plunder And their houses desolate; Yes, they will build houses but not inhabit them, And plant vineyards but not drink their wine."
nasb@Zephaniah:1:3 @Seek the LORD, All you humble of the earth Who have carried out His ordinances; Seek righteousness, seek humility. Perhaps you will be hidden In the day of the LORD'S anger.
nasb@Zephaniah:1:13 @And He will stretch out His hand against the north And destroy Assyria, And He will make Nineveh a desolation, Parched like the wilderness.
nasb@Zephaniah:2:3 @Her princes within her are roaring lions, Her judges are wolves at evening; They leave nothing for the morning.
nasb@Zephaniah:2:13" @The remnant of Israel will do no wrong And tell no lies, Nor will a deceitful tongue Be found in their mouths; For they will feed and lie down With no one to make them tremble."
nasb@Haggai:0:3 @Then the word of the LORD came by Haggai the prophet, saying,
nasb@Haggai:0:13 @Then Haggai, the messenger of the LORD, spoke by the commission of the LORD to the people saying, " ' I am with you,' declares the LORD."
nasb@Haggai:1:3 @'Who is left among you who saw this temple in its former glory? And how do you see it now? Does it not seem to you like nothing in comparison?
nasb@Haggai:1:13 @Then Haggai said, " If one who is unclean from a corpse touches any of these, will the latter become unclean?" And the priests answered, "It will become unclean."
nasb@Haggai:1:23 @'On that day,' declares the LORD of hosts, 'I will take you, Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, My servant,' declares the LORD, 'and I will make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you,'" declares the LORD of hosts.
nasb@Zechariah:0:3" @Therefore say to them, 'Thus says the LORD of hosts, " Return to Me," declares the LORD of hosts, "that I may return to you," says the LORD of hosts.
nasb@Zechariah:0:13 @The LORD answered the angel who was speaking with me with gracious words, comforting words.
nasb@Zechariah:1:3 @And behold, the angel who was speaking with me was going out, and another angel was coming out to meet him,
nasb@Zechariah:1:13" @ Be silent, all flesh, before the LORD; for He is aroused from His holy habitation."
nasb@Zechariah:2:3 @Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments and standing before the angel.
nasb@Zechariah:3:1 @Then the angel who was speaking with me returned and roused me, as a man who is awakened from his sleep.
nasb@Zechariah:3:2 @He said to me, " What do you see?" And I said, "I see, and behold, a lampstand all of gold with its bowl on the top of it, and its seven lamps on it with seven spouts belonging to each of the lamps which are on the top of it;
nasb@Zechariah:3:3 @also two olive trees by it, one on the right side of the bowl and the other on its left side."
nasb@Zechariah:3:4 @Then I said to the angel who was speaking with me saying, "What are these, my lord?"
nasb@Zechariah:3:5 @So the angel who was speaking with me answered and said to me, " Do you not know what these are?" And I said, "No, my lord."
nasb@Zechariah:3:6 @Then he said to me, "This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel saying, ' Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,' says the LORD of hosts.
nasb@Zechariah:3:7 @'What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain; and he will bring forth the top stone with shouts of "Grace, grace to it!"'"
nasb@Zechariah:3:8 @Also the word of the LORD came to me, saying,
nasb@Zechariah:3:9" @The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this house, and his hands will finish it. Then you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you.
nasb@Zechariah:3:10" @For who has despised the day of small things? But these seven will be glad when they see the plumb line in the hand of Zerubbabel--these are the eyes of the LORD which range to and fro throughout the earth."
nasb@Zechariah:3:11 @Then I said to him, "What are these two olive trees on the right of the lampstand and on its left?"
nasb@Zechariah:3:12 @And I answered the second time and said to him, "What are the two olive branches which are beside the two golden pipes, which empty the golden oil from themselves?"
nasb@Zechariah:3:13 @So he answered me, saying, " Do you not know what these are?" And I said, "No, my lord."
nasb@Zechariah:3:14 @Then he said, "These are the two anointed ones who are standing by the Lord of the whole earth."
nasb@Zechariah:4:3 @Then he said to me, "This is the curse that is going forth over the face of the whole land; surely everyone who steals will be purged away according to the writing on one side, and everyone who swears will be purged away according to the writing on the other side.
nasb@Zechariah:5:3 @with the third chariot white horses, and with the fourth chariot strong dappled horses.
nasb@Zechariah:5:13" @Yes, it is He who will build the temple of the LORD, and He who will bear the honor and sit and rule on His throne. Thus, He will be a priest on His throne, and the counsel of peace will be between the two offices."'
nasb@Zechariah:6:3 @speaking to the priests who belong to the house of the LORD of hosts, and to the prophets, saying, "Shall I weep in the fifth month and abstain, as I have done these many years?"
nasb@Zechariah:6:13" @And just as He called and they would not listen, so they called and I would not listen," says the LORD of hosts;
nasb@Zechariah:6:3" @Thus says the LORD, 'I will return to Zion and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem. Then Jerusalem will be called the City of Truth, and the mountain of the LORD of hosts will be called the Holy Mountain.'
nasb@Zechariah:6:13 @'It will come about that just as you were a curse among the nations, O house of Judah and house of Israel, so I will save you that you may become a blessing. Do not fear; let your hands be strong.'
nasb@Zechariah:6:23" @Thus says the LORD of hosts, 'In those days ten men from all the nations will grasp the garment of a Jew, saying, "Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you."'"
nasb@Zechariah:7:3 @For Tyre built herself a fortress And piled up silver like dust, And gold like the mire of the streets.
nasb@Zechariah:7:13 @For I will bend Judah as My bow, I will fill the bow with Ephraim. And I will stir up your sons, O Zion, against your sons, O Greece; And I will make you like a warrior's sword.
nasb@Zechariah:8:3" @My anger is kindled against the shepherds, And I will punish the male goats; For the LORD of hosts has visited His flock, the house of Judah, And will make them like His majestic horse in battle.
nasb@Zechariah:9:3 @There is a sound of the shepherds' wail, For their glory is ruined; There is a sound of the young lions' roar, For the pride of the Jordan is ruined.
nasb@Zechariah:9:13 @Then the LORD said to me, "Throw it to the potter, that magnificent price at which I was valued by them." So I took the thirty shekels of silver and threw them to the potter in the house of the LORD.
nasb@Zechariah:9:3" @It will come about in that day that I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples; all who lift it will be severely injured. And all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it.
nasb@Zechariah:9:13 @the family of the house of Levi by itself and their wives by themselves; the family of the Shimeites by itself and their wives by themselves;
nasb@Zechariah:9:13" @In that day a fountain will be opened for the house of David and for the inhabitants of Jerusalem, for sin and for impurity.
nasb@Zechariah:9:3" @And if anyone still prophesies, then his father and mother who gave birth to him will say to him, 'You shall not live, for you have spoken falsely in the name of the LORD'; and his father and mother who gave birth to him will pierce him through when he prophesies.
nasb@Zechariah:10:3 @Then the LORD will go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of battle.
nasb@Zechariah:10:13 @It will come about in that day that a great panic from the LORD will fall on them; and they will seize one another's hand, and the hand of one will be lifted against the hand of another.
nasb@Malachi:0:3 @but I have hated Esau, and I have made his mountains a desolation and appointed his inheritance for the jackals of the wilderness."
nasb@Malachi:0:13" @You also say, 'My, how tiresome it is!' And you disdainfully sniff at it," says the LORD of hosts, "and you bring what was taken by robbery and what is lame or sick; so you bring the offering! Should I receive that from your hand?" says the LORD.![[pBiblx2]](/img/menu.png)
