Hosea:1:1 @ The word of the LORD that came to Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.
akjv@Hosea:1:2 @ The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go, take to you a wife of prostitutions and children of prostitutions: for the land has committed great prostitution, departing from the LORD.
akjv@Hosea:1:3 @ So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; which conceived, and bore him a son.
akjv@Hosea:1:4 @ And the LORD said to him, Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
akjv@Hosea:1:6 @ And she conceived again, and bore a daughter. And God said to him, Call her name Loruhamah: for I will no more have mercy on the house of Israel; but I will utterly take them away.
akjv@Hosea:1:7 @ But I will have mercy on the house of Judah, and will save them by the LORD their God, and will not save them by bow, nor by sword, nor by battle, by horses, nor by horsemen.
akjv@Hosea:1:8 @ Now when she had weaned Loruhamah, she conceived, and bore a son.
akjv@Hosea:1:10 @ Yet the number of the children of Israel shall be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured nor numbered; and it shall come to pass, that in the place where it was said to them, You are not my people, there it shall be said to them, You are the sons of the living God.
akjv@Hosea:1:11 @ Then shall the children of Judah and the children of Israel be gathered together, and appoint themselves one head, and they shall come up out of the land: for great shall be the day of Jezreel.
akjv@Hosea:2:2 @ Plead with your mother, plead: for she is not my wife, neither am I her husband: let her therefore put away her prostitutions out of her sight, and her adulteries from between her breasts;
akjv@Hosea:2:4 @ And I will not have mercy on her children; for they be the children of prostitutions.
akjv@Hosea:2:5 @ For their mother has played the harlot: she that conceived them has done shamefully: for she said, I will go after my lovers, that give me my bread and my water, my wool and my flax, my oil and my drink.
akjv@Hosea:2:9 @ Therefore will I return, and take away my corn in the time thereof, and my wine in the season thereof, and will recover my wool and my flax given to cover her nakedness.
akjv@Hosea:2:10 @ And now will I discover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, and none shall deliver her out of my hand.
akjv@Hosea:2:11 @ I will also cause all her mirth to cease, her feast days, her new moons, and her sabbaths, and all her solemn feasts.
akjv@Hosea:2:13 @ And I will visit on her the days of Baalim, wherein she burned incense to them, and she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and she went after her lovers, and forgot me, said the LORD.
akjv@Hosea:2:23 @ And I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her that had not obtained mercy; and I will say to them which were not my people, You are my people; and they shall say, You are my God.
akjv@Hosea:3:1 @ Then said the LORD to me, Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the LORD toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine.
akjv@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear the word of the LORD, you children of Israel: for the LORD has a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.
akjv@Hosea:4:3 @ Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwells therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven; yes, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.
akjv@Hosea:4:8 @ They eat up the sin of my people, and they set their heart on their iniquity.
akjv@Hosea:4:10 @ For they shall eat, and not have enough: they shall commit prostitution, and shall not increase: because they have left off to take heed to the LORD.
akjv@Hosea:4:11 @ Prostitution and wine and new wine take away the heart.
akjv@Hosea:4:12 @ My people ask counsel at their stocks, and their staff declares to them: for the spirit of prostitutions has caused them to err, and they have gone a whoring from under their God.
akjv@Hosea:4:13 @ They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains, and burn incense on the hills, under oaks and poplars and elms, because the shadow thereof is good: therefore your daughters shall commit prostitution, and your spouses shall commit adultery.
akjv@Hosea:4:14 @ I will not punish your daughters when they commit prostitution, nor your spouses when they commit adultery: for themselves are separated with whores, and they sacrifice with harlots: therefore the people that does not understand shall fall.
akjv@Hosea:4:17 @ Ephraim is joined to idols: let him alone.
akjv@Hosea:4:18 @ Their drink is sour: they have committed prostitution continually: her rulers with shame do love, Give you.
akjv@Hosea:5:1 @ Hear you this, O priests; and listen, you house of Israel; and give you ear, O house of the king; for judgment is toward you, because you have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread on Tabor.
akjv@Hosea:5:3 @ I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hid from me: for now, O Ephraim, you commit prostitution, and Israel is defiled.
akjv@Hosea:5:4 @ They will not frame their doings to turn to their God: for the spirit of prostitutions is in the middle of them, and they have not known the LORD.
akjv@Hosea:5:7 @ They have dealt treacherously against the LORD: for they have begotten strange children: now shall a month devour them with their portions.
akjv@Hosea:5:9 @ Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke: among the tribes of Israel have I made known that which shall surely be.
akjv@Hosea:5:10 @ The princes of Judah were like them that remove the bound: therefore I will pour out my wrath on them like water.
akjv@Hosea:5:14 @ For I will be to Ephraim as a lion, and as a young lion to the house of Judah: I, even I, will tear and go away; I will take away, and none shall rescue him.
akjv@Hosea:5:15 @ I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.
akjv@Hosea:6:3 @ Then shall we know, if we follow on to know the LORD: his going forth is prepared as the morning; and he shall come to us as the rain, as the latter and former rain to the earth.
akjv@Hosea:6:9 @ And as troops of robbers wait for a man, so the company of priests murder in the way by consent: for they commit lewdness.
akjv@Hosea:6:10 @ I have seen an horrible thing in the house of Israel: there is the prostitution of Ephraim, Israel is defiled.
akjv@Hosea:7:2 @ And they consider not in their hearts that I remember all their wickedness: now their own doings have beset them about; they are before my face.
akjv@Hosea:7:7 @ They are all hot as an oven, and have devoured their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calls to me.
akjv@Hosea:7:8 @ Ephraim, he has mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
akjv@Hosea:7:9 @ Strangers have devoured his strength, and he knows it not: yes, gray hairs are here and there on him, yet he knows not.
akjv@Hosea:7:12 @ When they shall go, I will spread my net on them; I will bring them down as the fowls of the heaven; I will chastise them, as their congregation has heard.
akjv@Hosea:7:13 @ Woe to them! for they have fled from me: destruction to them! because they have transgressed against me: though I have redeemed them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
akjv@Hosea:7:14 @ And they have not cried to me with their heart, when they howled on their beds: they assemble themselves for corn and wine, and they rebel against me.
akjv@Hosea:7:16 @ They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
akjv@Hosea:8:5 @ Your calf, O Samaria, has cast you off; my anger is kindled against them: how long will it be ere they attain to innocence?
akjv@Hosea:8:8 @ Israel is swallowed up: now shall they be among the Gentiles as a vessel wherein is no pleasure.
akjv@Hosea:8:9 @ For they are gone up to Assyria, a wild ass alone by himself: Ephraim has hired lovers.
akjv@Hosea:8:10 @ Yes, though they have hired among the nations, now will I gather them, and they shall sorrow a little for the burden of the king of princes.
akjv@Hosea:8:14 @ For Israel has forgotten his Maker, and builds temples; and Judah has multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire on his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
akjv@Hosea:9:1 @ Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as other people: for you have gone a whoring from your God, you have loved a reward on every corn floor.
akjv@Hosea:9:6 @ For, see, they are gone because of destruction: Egypt shall gather them up, Memphis shall bury them: the pleasant places for their silver, nettles shall possess them: thorns shall be in their tabernacles.
akjv@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of visitation are come, the days of recompense are come; Israel shall know it: the prophet is a fool, the spiritual man is mad, for the multitude of your iniquity, and the great hatred.
akjv@Hosea:9:10 @ I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the fig tree at her first time: but they went to Baalpeor, and separated themselves to that shame; and their abominations were according as they loved.
akjv@Hosea:9:11 @ As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception.
akjv@Hosea:9:17 @ My God will cast them away, because they did not listen to him: and they shall be wanderers among the nations.
akjv@Hosea:10:5 @ The inhabitants of Samaria shall fear because of the calves of Bethaven: for the people thereof shall mourn over it, and the priests thereof that rejoiced on it, for the glory thereof, because it is departed from it.
akjv@Hosea:10:7 @ As for Samaria, her king is cut off as the foam on the water.
akjv@Hosea:10:8 @ The high places also of Aven, the sin of Israel, shall be destroyed: the thorn and the thistle shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.
akjv@Hosea:10:11 @ And Ephraim is as an heifer that is taught, and loves to tread out the corn; but I passed over on her fair neck: I will make Ephraim to ride; Judah shall plow, and Jacob shall break his clods.
akjv@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the LORD, till he come and rain righteousness on you.
akjv@Hosea:10:14 @ Therefore shall a tumult arise among your people, and all your fortresses shall be spoiled, as Shalman spoiled Betharbel in the day of battle: the mother was dashed in pieces on her children.
akjv@Hosea:11:1 @ When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt.
akjv@Hosea:11:4 @ I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love: and I was to them as they that take off the yoke on their jaws, and I laid meat to them.
akjv@Hosea:11:6 @ And the sword shall abide on his cities, and shall consume his branches, and devour them, because of their own counsels.
akjv@Hosea:11:7 @ And my people are bent to backsliding from me: though they called them to the most High, none at all would exalt him.
akjv@Hosea:11:9 @ I will not execute the fierceness of my anger, I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the middle of you: and I will not enter into the city.
akjv@Hosea:11:10 @ They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.
akjv@Hosea:12:1 @ Ephraim feeds on wind, and follows after the east wind: he daily increases lies and desolation; and they do make a covenant with the Assyrians, and oil is carried into Egypt.
akjv@Hosea:12:2 @ The LORD has also a controversy with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings will he recompense him.
akjv@Hosea:12:4 @ Yes, he had power over the angel, and prevailed: he wept, and made supplication to him: he found him in Bethel, and there he spoke with us;
akjv@Hosea:12:6 @ Therefore turn you to your God: keep mercy and judgment and wait on your God continually.
akjv@Hosea:12:8 @ And Ephraim said, Yet I am become rich, I have found me out substance: in all my labors they shall find none iniquity in me that were sin.
akjv@Hosea:12:10 @ I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.
akjv@Hosea:12:14 @ Ephraim provoked him to anger most bitterly: therefore shall he leave his blood on him, and his reproach shall his LORD return to him.
akjv@Hosea:13:7 @ Therefore I will be to them as a lion: as a leopard by the way will I observe them:
akjv@Hosea:13:8 @ I will meet them as a bear that is bereaved of her whelps, and will rend the lobe of their heart, and there will I devour them like a lion: the wild beast shall tear them.
akjv@Hosea:13:13 @ The sorrows of a travailing woman shall come on him: he is an unwise son; for he should not stay long in the place of the breaking forth of children.
akjv@Hosea:13:14 @ I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be your plagues; O grave, I will be your destruction: repentance shall be hid from my eyes.
akjv@Hosea:13:15 @ Though he be fruitful among his brothers, an east wind shall come, the wind of the LORD shall come up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: he shall spoil the treasure of all pleasant vessels.
akjv@Hosea:14:3 @ Asshur shall not save us; we will not ride on horses: neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, You are our gods: for in you the fatherless finds mercy.
akjv@Hosea:14:5 @ I will be as the dew to Israel: he shall grow as the lily, and cast forth his roots as Lebanon.
akjv@Hosea:14:6 @ His branches shall spread, and his beauty shall be as the olive tree, and his smell as Lebanon.
akjv@Hosea:14:7 @ They that dwell under his shadow shall return; they shall revive as the corn, and grow as the vine: the scent thereof shall be as the wine of Lebanon.
akjv@Joel:1:1 @ The word of the LORD that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.
akjv@Joel:1:3 @ Tell you your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation.
akjv@Joel:1:6 @ For a nation is come up on my land, strong, and without number, whose teeth are the teeth of a lion, and he has the cheek teeth of a great lion.
akjv@Joel:1:12 @ The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languishes; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, even all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men.
akjv@Joel:1:15 @ Alas for the day! for the day of the LORD is at hand, and as a destruction from the Almighty shall it come.
akjv@Joel:2:1 @ Blow you the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD comes, for it is near at hand;
akjv@Joel:2:2 @ A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread on the mountains: a great people and a strong; there has not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.
akjv@Joel:2:5 @ Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devours the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array.
akjv@Joel:2:7 @ They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:
akjv@Joel:2:8 @ Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall on the sword, they shall not be wounded.
akjv@Joel:2:9 @ They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run on the wall, they shall climb up on the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
akjv@Joel:2:10 @ The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
akjv@Joel:2:11 @ And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executes his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?
akjv@Joel:2:15 @ Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:
akjv@Joel:2:16 @ Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.
akjv@Joel:2:17 @ Let the priests, the ministers of the LORD, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare your people, O LORD, and give not your heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: why should they say among the people, Where is their God?
akjv@Joel:2:19 @ Yes, the LORD will answer and say to his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and you shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen:
akjv@Joel:2:20 @ But I will remove far off from you the northern army, and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill smell shall come up, because he has done great things.
akjv@Joel:2:23 @ Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he has given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.
akjv@Joel:2:25 @ And I will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.
akjv@Joel:2:26 @ And you shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that has dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.
akjv@Joel:2:27 @ And you shall know that I am in the middle of Israel, and that I am the LORD your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.
akjv@Joel:2:28 @ And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
akjv@Joel:2:29 @ And also on the servants and on the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
akjv@Joel:2:30 @ And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
akjv@Joel:2:31 @ The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the LORD come.
akjv@Joel:2:32 @ And it shall come to pass, that whoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD has said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.
akjv@Joel:3:2 @ I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.
akjv@Joel:3:4 @ Yes, and what have you to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? will you render me a recompense? and if you recompense me, swiftly and speedily will I return your recompense on your own head;
akjv@Joel:3:7 @ Behold, I will raise them out of the place where you have sold them, and will return your recompense on your own head:
akjv@Joel:3:8 @ And I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the children of Judah, and they shall sell them to the Sabeans, to a people far off: for the LORD has spoken it.
akjv@Joel:3:9 @ Proclaim you this among the Gentiles; Prepare war, wake up the mighty men, let all the men of war draw near; let them come up:
akjv@Joel:3:10 @ Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.
akjv@Joel:3:11 @ Assemble yourselves, and come, all you heathen, and gather yourselves together round about: thither cause your mighty ones to come down, O LORD.
akjv@Joel:3:14 @ Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
akjv@Joel:3:15 @ The sun and the moon shall be darkened, and the stars shall withdraw their shining.
akjv@Joel:3:16 @ The LORD also shall roar out of Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth shall shake: but the LORD will be the hope of his people, and the strength of the children of Israel.
akjv@Joel:3:17 @ So shall you know that I am the LORD your God dwelling in Zion, my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more.
akjv@Joel:3:19 @ Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness, for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed innocent blood in their land.
akjv@Joel:3:20 @ But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation.
akjv@Joel:3:21 @ For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the LORD dwells in Zion.
akjv@Amos:1:1 @ The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
akjv@Amos:1:2 @ And he said, The LORD will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither.
akjv@Amos:1:3 @ Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron:
akjv@Amos:1:6 @ Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver them up to Edom:
akjv@Amos:1:7 @ But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour the palaces thereof:
akjv@Amos:1:8 @ And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holds the scepter from Ashkelon, and I will turn my hand against Ekron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, said the Lord GOD.
akjv@Amos:1:9 @ Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant:
akjv@Amos:1:10 @ But I will send a fire on the wall of Tyrus, which shall devour the palaces thereof.
akjv@Amos:1:11 @ Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he did pursue his brother with the sword, and did cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and he kept his wrath for ever:
akjv@Amos:1:12 @ But I will send a fire on Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
akjv@Amos:1:13 @ Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border:
akjv@Amos:2:1 @ Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:
akjv@Amos:2:2 @ But I will send a fire on Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kirioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:
akjv@Amos:2:4 @ Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked:
akjv@Amos:2:5 @ But I will send a fire on Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
akjv@Amos:2:6 @ Thus said the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;
akjv@Amos:2:7 @ That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in to the same maid, to profane my holy name:
akjv@Amos:2:8 @ And they lay themselves down on clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god.
akjv@Amos:2:9 @ Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
akjv@Amos:2:11 @ And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O you children of Israel? said the LORD.
akjv@Amos:2:14 @ Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
akjv@Amos:2:16 @ And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, said the LORD.
akjv@Amos:3:2 @ You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
akjv@Amos:3:4 @ Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
akjv@Amos:3:5 @ Can a bird fall in a snare on the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
akjv@Amos:3:6 @ Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD has not done it?
akjv@Amos:3:8 @ The lion has roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD has spoken, who can but prophesy?
akjv@Amos:3:9 @ Publish in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great tumults in the middle thereof, and the oppressed in the middle thereof.
akjv@Amos:3:12 @ Thus said the LORD; As the shepherd takes out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch.
akjv@Amos:3:14 @ That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel on him I will also visit the altars of Bethel: and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.
akjv@Amos:4:2 @ The Lord GOD has sworn by his holiness, that, see, the days shall come on you, that he will take you away with hooks, and your posterity with fishhooks.
akjv@Amos:4:4 @ Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices every morning, and your tithes after three years:
akjv@Amos:4:7 @ And also I have withheld the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: and I caused it to rain on one city, and caused it not to rain on another city: one piece was rained on, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered.
akjv@Amos:4:8 @ So two or three cities wandered to one city, to drink water; but they were not satisfied: yet have you not returned to me, said the LORD.
akjv@Amos:4:10 @ I have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men have I slain with the sword, and have taken away your horses; and I have made the stink of your camps to come up to your nostrils: yet have you not returned to me, said the LORD.
akjv@Amos:4:13 @ For, see, he that forms the mountains, and creates the wind, and declares to man what is his thought, that makes the morning darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth, The LORD, The God of hosts, is his name.
akjv@Amos:5:1 @ Hear you this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.
akjv@Amos:5:2 @ The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken on her land; there is none to raise her up.
akjv@Amos:5:6 @ Seek the LORD, and you shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel.
akjv@Amos:5:8 @ Seek him that makes the seven stars and Orion, and turns the shadow of death into the morning, and makes the day dark with night: that calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:
akjv@Amos:5:9 @ That strengthens the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.
akjv@Amos:5:11 @ For as much therefore as your treading is on the poor, and you take from him burdens of wheat: you have built houses of hewn stone, but you shall not dwell in them; you have planted pleasant vineyards, but you shall not drink wine of them.
akjv@Amos:5:12 @ For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.
akjv@Amos:5:16 @ Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the LORD, said thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the farmer to mourning, and such as are skillful of lamentation to wailing.
akjv@Amos:5:19 @ As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
akjv@Amos:5:23 @ Take you away from me the noise of your songs; for I will not hear the melody of your viols.
akjv@Amos:5:27 @ Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, said the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.
akjv@Amos:6:1 @ Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!
akjv@Amos:6:4 @ That lie on beds of ivory, and stretch themselves on their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the middle of the stall;
akjv@Amos:6:6 @ That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
akjv@Amos:6:9 @ And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
akjv@Amos:6:10 @ And a man' uncle shall take him up, and he that burns him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say to him that is by the sides of the house, Is there yet any with you? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold your tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the LORD.
akjv@Amos:6:12 @ Shall horses run on the rock? will one plow there with oxen? for you have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into hemlock:
akjv@Amos:6:14 @ But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, said the LORD the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hemath to the river of the wilderness.
akjv@Amos:7:4 @ Thus has the Lord GOD showed to me: and, behold, the Lord GOD called to contend by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and did eat up a part.
akjv@Amos:7:7 @ Thus he showed me: and, behold, the LORD stood on a wall made by a plumb line, with a plumb line in his hand.
akjv@Amos:7:10 @ Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos has conspired against you in the middle of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
akjv@Amos:7:14 @ Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet' son; but I was an herdsman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit:
akjv@Amos:7:17 @ Therefore thus said the LORD; Your wife shall be an harlot in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be divided by line; and you shall die in a polluted land: and Israel shall surely go into captivity forth of his land.
akjv@Amos:8:2 @ And he said, Amos, what see you? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the LORD to me, The end is come on my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.
akjv@Amos:8:3 @ And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, said the Lord GOD: there shall be many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast them forth with silence.
akjv@Amos:8:5 @ Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
akjv@Amos:8:8 @ Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwells therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.
akjv@Amos:8:9 @ And it shall come to pass in that day, said the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:
akjv@Amos:8:10 @ And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth on all loins, and baldness on every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.
akjv@Amos:9:1 @ I saw the LORD standing on the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that flees of them shall not flee away, and he that escapes of them shall not be delivered.
akjv@Amos:9:4 @ And though they go into captivity before their enemies, there will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set my eyes on them for evil, and not for good.
akjv@Amos:9:6 @ It is he that builds his stories in the heaven, and has founded his troop in the earth; he that calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the face of the earth: The LORD is his name.
akjv@Amos:9:8 @ Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, said the LORD.
akjv@Amos:9:9 @ For, see, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall on the earth.
akjv@Amos:9:15 @ And I will plant them on their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, said the LORD your God.
akjv@Obadiah:1:1 @ The vision of Obadiah. Thus said the Lord GOD concerning Edom; We have heard a rumor from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise you, and let us rise up against her in battle.
akjv@Obadiah:1:2 @ Behold, I have made you small among the heathen: you are greatly despised.
akjv@Obadiah:1:3 @ The pride of your heart has deceived you, you that dwell in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that said in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
akjv@Obadiah:1:4 @ Though you exalt yourself as the eagle, and though you set your nest among the stars, there will I bring you down, said the LORD.
akjv@Obadiah:1:7 @ All the men of your confederacy have brought you even to the border: the men that were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you; that they eat your bread have laid a wound under you: there is none understanding in him.
akjv@Obadiah:1:9 @ And your mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one of the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
akjv@Obadiah:1:11 @ In the day that you stood on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots on Jerusalem, even you were as one of them.
akjv@Obadiah:1:12 @ But you should not have looked on the day of your brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither should you have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither should you have spoken proudly in the day of distress.
akjv@Obadiah:1:13 @ You should not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yes, you should not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity;
akjv@Obadiah:1:15 @ For the day of the LORD is near on all the heathen: as you have done, it shall be done to you: your reward shall return on your own head.
akjv@Obadiah:1:16 @ For as you have drunk on my holy mountain, so shall all the heathen drink continually, yes, they shall drink, and they shall swallow down, and they shall be as though they had not been.
akjv@Obadiah:1:17 @ But on mount Zion shall be deliverance, and there shall be holiness; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.
akjv@Obadiah:1:21 @ And saviors shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD'.
akjv@Jonah:1:1 @ Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
akjv@Jonah:1:2 @ Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.
akjv@Jonah:1:3 @ But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.
akjv@Jonah:1:4 @ But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.
akjv@Jonah:1:5 @ Then the mariners were afraid, and cried every man to his god, and cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it of them. But Jonah was gone down into the sides of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.
akjv@Jonah:1:6 @ So the shipmaster came to him, and said to him, What mean you, O sleeper? arise, call on your God, if so be that God will think on us, that we perish not.
akjv@Jonah:1:7 @ And they said every one to his fellow, Come, and let us cast lots, that we may know for whose cause this evil is on us. So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.
akjv@Jonah:1:8 @ Then said they to him, Tell us, we pray you, for whose cause this evil is on us; What is your occupation? and from where come you? what is your country? and of what people are you?
akjv@Jonah:1:9 @ And he said to them, I am an Hebrew; and I fear the LORD, the God of heaven, which has made the sea and the dry land.
akjv@Jonah:1:10 @ Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said to him. Why have you done this? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.
akjv@Jonah:1:11 @ Then said they to him, What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us? for the sea worked, and was tempestuous.
akjv@Jonah:1:12 @ And he said to them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea; so shall the sea be calm to you: for I know that for my sake this great tempest is on you.
akjv@Jonah:1:13 @ Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but they could not: for the sea worked, and was tempestuous against them.
akjv@Jonah:1:14 @ Why they cried to the LORD, and said, We beseech you, O LORD, we beseech you, let us not perish for this man' life, and lay not on us innocent blood: for you, O LORD, have done as it pleased you.
akjv@Jonah:1:15 @ So they look up Jonah, and cast him forth into the sea: and the sea ceased from her raging.
akjv@Jonah:1:16 @ Then the men feared the LORD exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice to the LORD, and made vows.
akjv@Jonah:1:17 @ Now the LORD had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
akjv@Jonah:2:1 @ Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God out of the fish' belly,
akjv@Jonah:2:2 @ And said, I cried by reason of my affliction to the LORD, and he heard me; out of the belly of hell cried I, and you heard my voice.
akjv@Jonah:2:3 @ For you had cast me into the deep, in the middle of the seas; and the floods compassed me about: all your billows and your waves passed over me.
akjv@Jonah:2:4 @ Then I said, I am cast out of your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.
akjv@Jonah:2:5 @ The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
akjv@Jonah:2:6 @ I went down to the bottoms of the mountains; the earth with her bars was about me for ever: yet have you brought up my life from corruption, O LORD my God.
akjv@Jonah:2:7 @ When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.
akjv@Jonah:2:8 @ They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
akjv@Jonah:2:9 @ But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD.
akjv@Jonah:2:10 @ And the LORD spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
akjv@Jonah:3:1 @ And the word of the LORD came to Jonah the second time, saying,
akjv@Jonah:3:2 @ Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach to it the preaching that I bid you.
akjv@Jonah:3:3 @ So Jonah arose, and went to Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days'journey.
akjv@Jonah:3:4 @ And Jonah began to enter into the city a day' journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.
akjv@Jonah:3:5 @ So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.
akjv@Jonah:3:6 @ For word came to the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
akjv@Jonah:3:7 @ And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water:
akjv@Jonah:3:8 @ But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily to God: yes, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.
akjv@Jonah:3:9 @ Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
akjv@Jonah:3:10 @ And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do to them; and he did it not.
akjv@Jonah:4:1 @ But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.
akjv@Jonah:4:2 @ And he prayed to the LORD, and said, I pray you, O LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before to Tarshish: for I knew that you are a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repent you of the evil.
akjv@Jonah:4:3 @ Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech you, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.
akjv@Jonah:4:4 @ Then said the LORD, Do you well to be angry?
akjv@Jonah:4:5 @ So Jonah went out of the city, and sat on the east side of the city, and there made him a booth, and sat under it in the shadow, till he might see what would become of the city.
akjv@Jonah:4:6 @ And the LORD God prepared a gourd, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shadow over his head, to deliver him from his grief. So Jonah was exceeding glad of the gourd.
