Hosea:1:1 @ The word of Yahweh {"Yahweh" is God's proper Name, sometimes rendered "LORD" (all caps) in other translations.} 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.
web@Hosea:1:2 @ When Yahweh spoke at first by Hosea, Yahweh said to Hosea, "Go, take for yourself a wife of prostitution and children of unfaithfulness; for the land commits great adultery, forsaking Yahweh."
web@Hosea:1:3 @ So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bore him a son.
web@Hosea:1:4 @ Yahweh 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 the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease.
web@Hosea:1:6 @ She conceived again, and bore a daughter. Then he said to him, "Call her name Lo-Ruhamah {Lo-Ruhamah means "not loved."}; for I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel, that I should in any way pardon them.
web@Hosea:1:10 @ Yet the number of the children of Israel will be as the sand of the sea, which can't be measured nor numbered; and it will come to pass that, in the place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,' they will be called 'sons of the living God.'
web@Hosea:1:11 @ The children of Judah and the children of Israel will be gathered together, and they will appoint themselves one head, and will go up from the land; for great will be the day of Jezreel.

web@Hosea:2:7 @ She will follow after her lovers, but she won't overtake them; and she will seek them, but won't find them. Then she will say, 'I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.'
web@Hosea:2:8 @ For she did not know that I gave her the grain, the new wine, and the oil, and multiplied to her silver and gold, which they used for Baal.
web@Hosea:2:11 @ I will also cause all her celebrations to cease: her feasts, her new moons, her Sabbaths, and all her solemn assemblies.
web@Hosea:2:13 @ I will visit on her the days of the Baals, to which she burned incense, when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me," says Yahweh.
web@Hosea:2:14 @ "Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her.
web@Hosea:2:19 @ I will betroth you to me forever. Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion.
web@Hosea:2:20 @ I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you shall know Yahweh.
web@Hosea:2:21 @ It will happen in that day, I will respond," says Yahweh, "I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;
web@Hosea:2:22 @ and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.
web@Hosea:2:23 @ I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will tell those who were not my people, 'You are my people;' and they will say, 'My God!'"
web@Hosea:3:1 @ Yahweh said to me, "Go again, love a woman loved by another, and an adulteress, even as Yahweh loves the children of Israel, though they turn to other gods, and love cakes of raisins."
web@Hosea:3:3 @ I said to her, "You shall stay with me many days. You shall not play the prostitute, and you shall not be with any other man. I will also be so toward you."
web@Hosea:3:4 @ For the children of Israel shall live many days without king, and without prince, and without sacrifice, and without sacred stone, and without ephod or idols.
web@Hosea:3:5 @ Afterward the children of Israel shall return, and seek Yahweh their God, and David their king, and shall come with trembling to Yahweh and to his blessings in the last days.
web@Hosea:4:6 @ My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you may be no priest to me. Because you have forgotten your God's law, I will also forget your children.
web@Hosea:4:7 @ As they were multiplied, so they sinned against me. I will change their glory into shame.
web@Hosea:4:10 @ They will eat, and not have enough. They will play the prostitute, and will not increase; because they have abandoned giving to Yahweh.
web@Hosea:4:12 @ My people consult with their wooden idol, and answer to a stick of wood. Indeed the spirit of prostitution has led them astray, and they have been unfaithful to their God.
web@Hosea:4:13 @ They sacrifice on the tops of the mountains, and burn incense on the hills, under oaks and poplars and terebinths, because its shade is good. Therefore your daughters play the prostitute, and your brides commit adultery.
web@Hosea:4:14 @ I will not punish your daughters when they play the prostitute, nor your brides when they commit adultery; because the men consort with prostitutes, and they sacrifice with the shrine prostitutes; so the people without understanding will come to ruin.
web@Hosea:4:15 @ "Though you, Israel, play the prostitute, yet don't let Judah offend; and don't come to Gilgal, neither go up to Beth Aven, nor swear, 'As Yahweh lives.'
web@Hosea:4:17 @ Ephraim is joined to idols. Leave him alone!
web@Hosea:5:1 @ "Listen to this, you priests! Listen, house of Israel, and give ear, house of the king! For the judgment is against you; for you have been a snare at Mizpah, and a net spread on Tabor.
web@Hosea:5:4 @ Their deeds won't allow them to turn to their God; for the spirit of prostitution is within them, and they don't know Yahweh.
web@Hosea:5:5 @ The pride of Israel testifies to his face. Therefore Israel and Ephraim will stumble in their iniquity. Judah also will stumble with them.
web@Hosea:5:6 @ They will go with their flocks and with their herds to seek Yahweh; but they won't find him. He has withdrawn himself from them.
web@Hosea:5:7 @ They are unfaithful to Yahweh; for they have borne illegitimate children. Now the new moon will devour them with their fields.
web@Hosea:5:12 @ Therefore I am to Ephraim like a moth, and to the house of Judah like rottenness.
web@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 not able to heal you, neither will he cure you of your wound.
web@Hosea:5:14 @ For I will be to Ephraim like a lion, and like a young lion to the house of Judah. I myself will tear in pieces and go away. I will carry off, and there will be no one to deliver.
web@Hosea:5:15 @ I will go and return to my place, until they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face. In their affliction they will seek me earnestly."
web@Hosea:6:1 @ "Come, and let us return to Yahweh; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds.
web@Hosea:6:3 @ Let us acknowledge Yahweh. Let us press on to know Yahweh. As surely as the sun rises, Yahweh will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth."
web@Hosea:6:4 @ "Ephraim, what shall I do to you? Judah, what shall I do to you? For your love is like a morning cloud, and like the dew that disappears early.
web@Hosea:6:5 @ Therefore I have cut them to pieces with the prophets; I killed them with the words of my mouth. Your judgments are like a flash of lightning.
web@Hosea:6:7 @ But they, like Adam, have broken the covenant. They were unfaithful to me, there.
web@Hosea:6:9 @ As gangs of robbers wait to ambush a man, so the company of priests murder in the way toward Shechem, committing shameful crimes.
web@Hosea:6:11 @ "Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.
web@Hosea:7:4 @ They are all adulterers. They are burning like an oven that the baker stops stirring, from the kneading of the dough, until it is leavened.
web@Hosea:7:7 @ They are all hot as an oven, and devour their judges. All their kings have fallen. There is no one among them who calls to me.
web@Hosea:7:10 @ The pride of Israel testifies to his face; yet they haven't returned to Yahweh their God, nor sought him, for all this.
web@Hosea:7:11 @ "Ephraim is like an easily deceived dove, without understanding. They call to Egypt. They go to Assyria.
web@Hosea:7:13 @ Woe to them! For they have wandered from me. Destruction to them! For they have trespassed against me. Though I would redeem them, yet they have spoken lies against me.
web@Hosea:7:14 @ They haven't cried to me with their heart, but they howl on their beds. They assemble themselves for grain and new wine. They turn away from me.
web@Hosea:7:16 @ They return, but not to the Most High. They are like a faulty bow. Their princes will fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue. This will be their derision in the land of Egypt.
web@Hosea:8:1 @ "Put the trumpet to your lips! Something like an eagle is over Yahweh's house, because they have broken my covenant, and rebelled against my law.
web@Hosea:8:2 @ They cry to me, 'My God, we Israel acknowledge you!'
web@Hosea:8:9 @ For they have gone up to Assyria, like a wild donkey wandering alone. Ephraim has hired lovers for himself.
web@Hosea:8:10 @ But although they sold themselves among the nations, I will now gather them; and they begin to waste away because of the oppression of the king of mighty ones.
web@Hosea:8:13 @ As for the sacrifices of my offerings, they sacrifice flesh and eat it; But Yahweh doesn't accept them. Now he will remember their iniquity, and punish their sins. They will return to Egypt.
web@Hosea:9:1 @ Don't rejoice, Israel, to jubilation like the nations; for you were unfaithful to your God. You love the wages of a prostitute at every grain threshing floor.
web@Hosea:9:3 @ They won't dwell in Yahweh's land; but Ephraim will return to Egypt, and they will eat unclean food in Assyria.
web@Hosea:9:4 @ They won't pour out wine offerings to Yahweh, neither will they be pleasing to him. Their sacrifices will be to them like the bread of mourners; all who eat of it will be polluted; for their bread will be for their appetite. It will not come into the house of Yahweh.
web@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of visitation have come. The days of reckoning have come. Israel will consider the prophet to be a fool, and the man who is inspired to be insane, because of the abundance of your sins, and because your hostility is great.
web@Hosea:9:10 @ I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness. I saw your fathers as the first ripe in the fig tree at its first season; but they came to Baal Peor, and consecrated themselves to the shameful thing, and became abominable like that which they loved.
web@Hosea:9:12 @ Though they bring up their children, yet I will bereave them, so that not a man shall be left. Indeed, woe also to them when I depart from them!
web@Hosea:9:13 @ I have seen Ephraim, like Tyre, planted in a pleasant place; but Ephraim will bring out his children to the murderer.
web@Hosea:9:17 @ My God will cast them away, because they did not listen to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.
web@Hosea:10:1 @ Israel is a luxuriant vine that puts forth his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. As their land has prospered, they have adorned their sacred stones.
web@Hosea:10:2 @ Their heart is divided. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones.
web@Hosea:10:6 @ It also will be carried to Assyria for a present to a great king. Ephraim will receive shame, and Israel will be ashamed of his own counsel.
web@Hosea:10:10 @ When it is my desire, I will chastise them; and the nations will be gathered against them, when they are bound to their two transgressions.
web@Hosea:10:11 @ Ephraim is a trained heifer that loves to thresh; so I will put a yoke on her beautiful neck. I will set a rider on Ephraim. Judah will plow. Jacob will break his clods.
web@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek Yahweh, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.
web@Hosea:10:15 @ So Bethel will do to you because of your great wickedness. At daybreak the king of Israel will be destroyed.
web@Hosea:11:2 @ They called to them, so they went from them. They sacrificed to the Baals, and burned incense to engraved images.
web@Hosea:11:3 @ Yet I taught Ephraim to walk. I took them by his arms; but they didn't know that I healed them.
web@Hosea:11:4 @ I drew them with cords of a man, with ties of love; and I was to them like those who lift up the yoke on their necks; and I bent down to him and I fed him.
web@Hosea:11:5 @ "They won't return into the land of Egypt; but the Assyrian will be their king, because they refused to repent.
web@Hosea:11:6 @ The sword will fall on their cities, and will destroy the bars of their gates, and will put an end to their plans.
web@Hosea:11:7 @ My people are determined to turn from me. Though they call to the Most High, he certainly won't exalt them.
web@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 midst of you; and I will not come in wrath.
web@Hosea:11:12 @ Ephraim surrounds me with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit. Judah still strays from God, and is unfaithful to the Holy One.
web@Hosea:12:1 @ Ephraim feeds on wind, and chases the east wind. He continually multiplies lies and desolation. They make a covenant with Assyria, and oil is carried into Egypt.
web@Hosea:12:2 @ Yahweh also has a controversy with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his deeds he will repay him.
web@Hosea:12:3 @ In the womb he took his brother by the heel; and in his manhood he contended with God.
web@Hosea:12:4 @ Indeed, he struggled with the angel, and prevailed; he wept, and made supplication to him. He found him at Bethel, and there he spoke with us,
web@Hosea:12:6 @ Therefore turn to your God. Keep kindness and justice, and wait continually for your God.
web@Hosea:12:7 @ A merchant has dishonest scales in his hand. He loves to defraud.
web@Hosea:12:10 @ I have also spoken to the prophets, and I have multiplied visions; and by the ministry of the prophets I have used parables.
web@Hosea:12:12 @ Jacob fled into the country of Aram, and Israel served to get a wife, and for a wife he tended flocks and herds.
web@Hosea:13:2 @ Now they sin more and more, and have made themselves molten images of their silver, even idols according to their own understanding, all of them the work of the craftsmen. They say of them, 'They offer human sacrifice and kiss the calves.'
web@Hosea:13:6 @ According to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted. Therefore they have forgotten me.
web@Hosea:13:7 @ Therefore I am like a lion to them. Like a leopard, I will lurk by the path.
web@Hosea:13:12 @ The guilt of Ephraim is stored up. His sin is stored up.
web@Hosea:13:13 @ The sorrows of a travailing woman will come on him. He is an unwise son; for when it is time, he doesn't come to the opening of the womb.
web@Hosea:13:15 @ Though he is fruitful among his brothers, an east wind will come, the breath of Yahweh coming up from the wilderness; and his spring will become dry, and his fountain will be dried up. He will plunder the storehouse of treasure.
web@Hosea:14:1 @ Israel, return to Yahweh your God; for you have fallen because of your sin.
web@Hosea:14:2 @ Take words with you, and return to Yahweh. Tell him, "Forgive all our sins, and accept that which is good: so we offer our lips like bulls.
web@Hosea:14:3 @ Assyria can't save us. We won't ride on horses; neither will we say any more to the work of our hands, 'Our gods!' for in you the fatherless finds mercy."
web@Hosea:14:5 @ I will be like the dew to Israel. He will blossom like the lily, and send down his roots like Lebanon.

web@Amos:6:14 @ For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, house of Israel," says Yahweh, the God of Armies; "and they will afflict you from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of the Arabah."
web@Amos:7:5 @ Then I said, "Lord Yahweh, stop, I beg you! How could Jacob stand? For he is small."
web@Amos:7:7 @ Thus he showed me and behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumb line, with a plumb line in his hand.
web@Amos:7:8 @ Yahweh said to me, "Amos, what do you see?" I said, "A plumb line." Then the Lord said, "Behold, I will set a plumb line in the midst of my people Israel. I will not again pass by them any more.
web@Amos:7:10 @ Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, "Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel. The land is not able to bear all his words.
web@Amos:7:12 @ Amaziah also said to Amos, "You seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there:
web@Amos:7:15 @ and Yahweh took me from following the flock, and Yahweh said to me, 'Go, prophesy to my people Israel.'
web@Amos:7:16 @ Now therefore listen to the word of Yahweh: 'You say, Don't prophesy against Israel, and don't preach against the house of Isaac.'
web@Amos:8:2 @ He said, "Amos, what do you see?" I said, "A basket of summer fruit." Then Yahweh said to me, "The end has come on my people Israel. I will not again pass by them any more.
web@Amos:8:4 @ Hear this, you who desire to swallow up the needy, and cause the poor of the land to fail,
web@Amos:8:9 @ It will happen in that day," says the Lord Yahweh, "that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day.
web@Amos:8:10 @ I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will make you wear sackcloth on all your bodies, and baldness on every head. I will make it like the mourning for an only son, and its end like a bitter day.
web@Amos:8:12 @ They will wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east; they will run back and forth to seek the word of Yahweh, and will not find it.
web@Amos:9:1 @ I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and he said, "Strike the tops of the pillars, that the thresholds may shake; and break them in pieces on the head of all of them; and I will kill the last of them with the sword: there shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape.
web@Amos:9:2 @ Though they dig into Sheol {Sheol is the place of the dead.}, there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down.
web@Amos:9:3 @ Though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out there; and though they be hidden from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them.
web@Amos:9:4 @ Though they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it will kill them. I will set my eyes on them for evil, and not for good.
web@Amos:9:5 @ For the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt.
web@Amos:9:7 @ Are you not like the children of the Ethiopians to me, children of Israel?" says Yahweh. "Haven't I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?
web@Obadiah:1:3 @ The pride of your heart has deceived you, you who dwell in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high, who says in his heart, 'Who will bring me down to the ground?'
web@Obadiah:1:5 @ "If thieves came to you, if robbers by night--oh, what disaster awaits you--wouldn't they only steal until they had enough? If grape pickers came to you, wouldn't they leave some gleaning grapes?
web@Obadiah:1:7 @ All the men of your alliance have brought you on your way, even to the border. The men who were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you. Friends who eat your bread lay a snare under you. There is no understanding in him."
web@Obadiah:1:9 @ Your mighty men, Teman, will be dismayed, to the end that everyone may be cut off from the mountain of Esau by slaughter.
web@Obadiah:1:10 @ For the violence done to your brother Jacob, shame will cover you, and you will be cut off forever.
web@Obadiah:1:11 @ In the day that you stood on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots for Jerusalem, even you were like one of them.
web@Obadiah:1:13 @ Don't enter into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity. Don't look down on their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither seize their wealth on the day of their calamity.
web@Obadiah:1:14 @ Don't stand in the crossroads to cut off those of his who escape. Don't deliver up those of his who remain in the day of distress.
web@Obadiah:1:15 @ For the day of Yahweh is near all the nations! As you have done, it will be done to you. Your deeds will return upon your own head.
web@Obadiah:1:18 @ The house of Jacob will be a fire, the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble. They will burn among them, and devour them. There will not be any remaining to the house of Esau." Indeed, Yahweh has spoken.
web@Obadiah:1:20 @ The captives of this army of the children of Israel, who are among the Canaanites, will possess even to Zarephath; and the captives of Jerusalem, who are in Sepharad, will possess the cities of the Negev.
web@Obadiah:1:21 @ Saviors will go up on Mount Zion to judge the mountains of Esau, and the kingdom will be Yahweh's.
web@Jonah:1:1 @ Now the word of Yahweh {"Yahweh" is God's proper Name, sometimes rendered "LORD" (all caps) in other translations.} came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
web@Jonah:1:2 @ "Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach against it, for their wickedness has come up before me."
web@Jonah:1:3 @ But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of Yahweh. He went down to Joppa, and found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid its fare, and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of Yahweh.
web@Jonah:1:4 @ But Yahweh sent out a great wind on the sea, and there was a mighty storm on the sea, so that the ship was likely to break up.
web@Jonah:1:5 @ Then the mariners were afraid, and every man cried to his god. They threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone down into the innermost parts of the ship, and he was laying down, and was fast asleep.
web@Jonah:1:6 @ So the shipmaster came to him, and said to him, "What do you mean, sleeper? Arise, call on your God {or, gods}! Maybe your God {or, gods} will notice us, so that we won't perish."
web@Jonah:1:7 @ They all said to each other, "Come, let us cast lots, that we may know who is responsible for this evil that is on us." So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah.
web@Jonah:1:9 @ He said to them, "I am a Hebrew, and I fear Yahweh, the God {The Hebrew word rendered "God" is "Elohim."} of heaven, who has made the sea and the dry land."
web@Jonah:1:10 @ Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said to him, "What is this that you have done?" For the men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of Yahweh, because he had told them.
web@Jonah:1:11 @ Then they said to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us?" For the sea grew more and more stormy.
web@Jonah:1:12 @ He said to them, "Take me up, and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will be calm for you; for I know that because of me this great storm is on you."
web@Jonah:1:13 @ Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get them back to the land; but they could not, for the sea grew more and more stormy against them.
web@Jonah:1:14 @ Therefore they cried to Yahweh, and said, "We beg you, Yahweh, we beg you, don't let us die for this man's life, and don't lay on us innocent blood; for you, Yahweh, have done as it pleased you."
web@Jonah:1:15 @ So they took up Jonah, and threw him into the sea; and the sea ceased its raging.
web@Jonah:1:16 @ Then the men feared Yahweh exceedingly; and they offered a sacrifice to Yahweh, and made vows.
web@Jonah:1:17 @ Yahweh prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah, and Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights.
web@Jonah:2:1 @ Then Jonah prayed to Yahweh, his God, out of the fish's belly.
web@Jonah:2:2 @ He said, "I called because of my affliction to Yahweh. He answered me. Out of the belly of Sheol {Sheol is the place of the dead.} I cried. You heard my voice.
web@Jonah:2:3 @ For you threw me into the depths, in the heart of the seas. The flood was all around me. All your waves and your billows passed over me.
web@Jonah:2:4 @ I said, 'I have been banished from your sight; yet I will look again toward your holy temple.'
web@Jonah:2:5 @ The waters surrounded me, even to the soul. The deep was around me. The weeds were wrapped around my head.
web@Jonah:2:6 @ I went down to the bottoms of the mountains. The earth barred me in forever: yet have you brought up my life from the pit, Yahweh my God.
web@Jonah:2:7 @ "When my soul fainted within me, I remembered Yahweh. My prayer came in to you, into your holy temple.
web@Jonah:2:9 @ But I will sacrifice to you with the voice of thanksgiving. I will pay that which I have vowed. Salvation belongs to Yahweh."
web@Jonah:2:10 @ Yahweh spoke to the fish, and it vomited out Jonah on the dry land.
web@Jonah:3:1 @ The word of Yahweh came to Jonah the second time, saying,
web@Jonah:3:2 @ "Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and preach to it the message that I give you."
web@Jonah:3:3 @ So Jonah arose, and went to Nineveh, according to the word of Yahweh. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, three days' journey across.
web@Jonah:3:4 @ Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried out, and said, "In forty days, Nineveh will be overthrown!"
web@Jonah:3:5 @ The people of Nineveh believed God; and they proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from their greatest even to their least.
web@Jonah:3:6 @ The news reached the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and took off his royal robe, covered himself with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
web@Jonah:3:8 @ but let them be covered with sackcloth, both man and animal, and let them cry mightily to God. Yes, let them turn everyone from his evil way, and from the violence that is in his hands.
web@Jonah:3:10 @ God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way. God relented of the disaster which he said he would do to them, and he didn't do it.
web@Jonah:4:2 @ He prayed to Yahweh, and said, "Please, Yahweh, wasn't this what I said when I was still in my own country? Therefore I hurried to flee to Tarshish, for I knew that you are a gracious God, and merciful, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, and you relent of doing harm.
web@Jonah:4:3 @ Therefore now, Yahweh, take, I beg you, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live."
web@Jonah:4:4 @ Yahweh said, "Is it right for you to be angry?"
web@Jonah:4:6 @ Yahweh God prepared a vine, and made it to come up over Jonah, that it might be a shade over his head, to deliver him from his discomfort. So Jonah was exceedingly glad because of the vine.
web@Jonah:4:8 @ It happened, when the sun arose, that God prepared a sultry east wind; and the sun beat on Jonah's head, so that he fainted, and requested for himself that he might die, and said, "It is better for me to die than to live."
web@Jonah:4:9 @ God said to Jonah, "Is it right for you to be angry about the vine?" He said, "I am right to be angry, even to death."
web@Jonah:4:11 @ Shouldn't I be concerned for Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred twenty thousand persons who can't discern between their right hand and their left hand; and also much livestock?"
web@Micah:1:1 @ The word of Yahweh {"Yahweh" is God's proper Name, sometimes rendered "LORD" (all caps) in other translations.} that came to Micah the Morashtite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
web@Micah:1:6 @ Therefore I will make Samaria like a rubble heap of the field, like places for planting vineyards; and I will pour down its stones into the valley, and I will uncover its foundations.
