bbe@Isaiah:39:2 @And Hezekiah was glad at their coming, and let them see all his store of wealth, the silver and the gold and the spices and the oil, and all the house of his arms, and everything there was in his stores: there was nothing in all his house or his kingdom which he did not let them see.

bbe@Isaiah:45:18 @For this is the word of the Lord who made the heavens; he is God; the maker and designer of the earth; who made it not to be a waste, but as a living-place for man: I am the Lord, and there is no other.
bbe@Isaiah:45:21 @Give the word, put forward your cause, let us have a discussion together: who has given news of this in the past? who made it clear in early times? did not I, the Lord? and there is no God but me; a true God and a saviour; there is no other.
bbe@Isaiah:45:22 @Let your hearts be turned to me, so that you may have salvation, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is no other.
bbe@Isaiah:46:9 @Let the things which are past come to your memory: for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like me;
bbe@Isaiah:47:8 @So now take note of this, you who are given up to pleasure, living without fear of evil, saying in your heart, I am, and there is no one like me; I will never be a widow, or have my children taken from me.
bbe@Isaiah:47:10 @For you had faith in your evil-doing; you said, No one sees me; by your wisdom and knowledge you have been turned out of the way: and you have said in your heart, I am, and there is no other.
bbe@Isaiah:48:16 @Come near to me, and give ear to this; from the start I did not keep it secret; from the time of its coming into existence I was there: and now the Lord God has sent me, and given me his spirit.

bbe@Isaiah:50:1 @This is the word of the Lord: Where is the statement which I gave your mother when I put her away? or to which of my creditors have I given you for money? It was for your sins that you were given into the hands of others, and for your evil-doing was your mother put away.
bbe@Isaiah:50:2 @Why, then, when I came, was there no man? and no one to give answer to my voice? has my hand become feeble, so that it is unable to take up your cause? or have I no power to make you free? See, at my word the sea becomes dry, I make the rivers a waste land: their fish are dead for need of water, and make an evil smell.
bbe@Isaiah:51:3 @For the Lord has given comfort to Zion: he has made glad all her broken walls; making her waste places like Eden, and changing her dry land into the garden of the Lord; joy and delight will be there, praise and the sound of melody.

bbe@Isaiah:52:5 @Now then, what have I here? says the Lord, for my people are taken away without cause; they are made waste and give cries of sorrow, says the Lord, and all the day the nations put shame on my name.
bbe@Isaiah:52:6 @For this cause I will make my name clear to my people; in that day they will be certain that it is my word which comes to them; see, here am I.

bbe@Isaiah:55:7 @Let the sinner give up his way, and the evil-doer his purpose: and let him come back to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for there is full forgiveness with him.
bbe@Isaiah:57:7 @You have put your bed on a high mountain: there you went up to make your offering.
bbe@Isaiah:57:8 @And on the back of the doors and on the pillars you have put your sign: for you have been false to me with another; you have made your bed wide, and made an agreement with them; you had a desire for their bed where you saw it
bbe@Isaiah:57:10 @You were tired with your long journeys; but you did not say, There is no hope: you got new strength, and so you were not feeble.

bbe@Isaiah:59:8 @They have no knowledge of the way of peace, and there is no sense of what is right in their behaviour: they have made for themselves ways which are not straight; whoever goes in them has no knowledge of peace.
bbe@Isaiah:59:9 @For this cause our right is far from us, and righteousness does not overtake us: we are looking for light, but there is only the dark; for the shining of the sun, but our way is in the night.
bbe@Isaiah:59:11 @We make noises of grief, like bears, and sad sounds like doves: we are looking for our right, but it is not there; for salvation, but it is far from us.
bbe@Isaiah:59:15 @Yes, faith is gone; and he whose heart is turned from evil comes into the power of the cruel: and the Lord saw it, and he was angry that there was no one to take up their cause.

bbe@Isaiah:63:15 @Let your eyes be looking down from heaven, from your holy and beautiful house: where is your deep feeling, the working of your power? do not keep back the moving of your pity and your mercies:
bbe@Isaiah:64:7 @And there is no one who makes prayer to your name, or who is moved to keep true to you: for your face is veiled from us, and you have given us into the power of our sins.
bbe@Isaiah:64:11 @Our holy and beautiful house, where our fathers gave praise to you, is burned with fire; and all the things of our desire have come to destruction.
bbe@Isaiah:65:1 @I have been ready to give an answer to those who did not make prayer to me; I have been offering myself to those who were not searching for me; I said, Here am I, here am I, to a nation which gave no respect to my name.

bbe@Isaiah:65:20 @No longer will there be there a child whose days are cut short, or an old man whose days have not come to their full measure: for the young man at his death will be a hundred years old, and he whose life is shorter than a hundred years will seem as one cursed.
bbe@Isaiah:65:25 @The wolf and the lamb will take their food together, and the lion will make a meal of grass like the ox: but dust will be the snake's food. There will be no cause of pain or destruction in all my holy mountain, says the Lord.
bbe@Isaiah:66:6 @There is a noise of war from the town, a sound from the Temple, the voice of the Lord giving punishment to his haters.
bbe@Jeremiah:1:7 @But the Lord said to me, Do not say, I am a child: for wherever I send you, you are to go, and whatever I give you orders to say, you are to say.
bbe@Jeremiah:2:6 @And they never said, Where is the Lord, who took us up out of the land of Egypt; who was our guide through the waste of sand, through an unplanted land full of deep holes, through a dry land of deep shade, which no one went through and where no man was living?
bbe@Jeremiah:2:7 @And I took you into a fertile land, where you were living on its fruit and its wealth; but when you came in, you made my land unclean, and made my heritage a disgusting thing.
bbe@Jeremiah:2:8 @The priests did not say, Where is the Lord? and those who were expert in the law had no knowledge of me: and the rulers did evil against me, and the prophets became prophets of the Baal, going after things without value.
bbe@Jeremiah:2:10 @For go over to the sea-lands of Kittim and see; send to Kedar and give deep thought to it; and see if there has ever been such a thing.
bbe@Jeremiah:2:25 @Do not let your foot be without shoes, or your throat dry from need of water: but you said, There is no hope: no, for I have been a lover of strange gods, and after them I will go.
bbe@Jeremiah:2:28 @But where are the gods you have made for yourselves? let them come, if they are able to give you salvation in the time of your trouble: for the number of your gods is as the number of your towns, O Judah.
bbe@Jeremiah:3:2 @Let your eyes be lifted up to the open hilltops, and see; where have you not been taken by your lovers? You have been seated waiting for them by the wayside like an Arabian in the waste land; you have made the land unclean with your loose ways and your evil-doing.
bbe@Jeremiah:3:3 @So the showers have been kept back, and there has been no spring rain; still your brow is the brow of a loose woman, you will not let yourself be shamed.
bbe@Jeremiah:3:6 @And the Lord said to me in the days of Josiah the king, Have you seen what Israel, turning away from me, has done? She has gone up on every high mountain and under every branching tree, acting like a loose woman there.
bbe@Jeremiah:4:25 @Looking, I saw that there was no man, and all the birds of heaven had gone in flight.
bbe@Jeremiah:5:1 @Go quickly through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and get knowledge, and make a search in her wide places if there is a man, if there is one in her who is upright, who keeps faith; and she will have my forgiveness.
bbe@Jeremiah:5:26 @For there are sinners among my people: they keep watch, like men watching for birds; they put a net and take men in it.
bbe@Jeremiah:6:1 @Go in flight out of Jerusalem, so that you may be safe, you children of Benjamin, and let the horn be sounded in Tekoa, and the flag be lifted up on Beth-haccherem: for evil is looking out from the north, and a great destruction.
bbe@Jeremiah:6:6 @For this is what the Lord of armies has said: Let trees be cut down and an earthwork be placed against Jerusalem: sorrow on the false town! inside her there is nothing but cruel ways.
bbe@Jeremiah:6:14 @And they have made little of the wounds of my people, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace
bbe@Jeremiah:6:16 @This is what the Lord has said: Take your place looking out on the ways; make search for the old roads, saying, Where is the good way? and go in it that you may have rest for your souls. But they said, We will not go in it.
bbe@Jeremiah:6:25 @Go not out into the field or by the way; for there is the sword of the attacker, and fear on every side.
bbe@Jeremiah:7:2 @Take your place in the doorway of the Lord's house, and give out this word there, and say, Give ear to the word of the Lord, all you of Judah who come inside these doors to give worship to the Lord.
bbe@Jeremiah:7:12 @But go now to my place which was in Shiloh, where I put my name at first, and see what I did to it because of the evil-doing of my people Israel.
bbe@Jeremiah:7:31 @And they have put up the high place of Topheth in the valley of the son of Hinnom, burning their sons and their daughters there in the fire; a thing which was not ordered by me and never came into my mind.
bbe@Jeremiah:7:32 @For this cause, the days are coming, says the Lord, when it will no longer be named Topheth, or, The valley of the son of Hinnom, but, The valley of Death: for they will put the dead into the earth in Topheth till there is no more room.
bbe@Jeremiah:7:33 @And the bodies of this people will be food for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth; and there will be no one to send them away.
bbe@Jeremiah:8:3 @And death will be desired more than life by the rest of this evil family who are still living in all the places where I have sent them away, says the Lord of armies.
bbe@Jeremiah:8:11 @And they have made little of the wounds of the daughter of Zion, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace.
bbe@Jeremiah:8:13 @I will put an end to them completely, says the Lord: there are no grapes on the vine and no figs on the fig-tree, and the leaf is dry.
bbe@Jeremiah:8:14 @Why are we seated doing nothing? come together, and let us go to the walled towns, and let destruction overtake us there, for the Lord our God has sent destruction on us, and given us bitter water for our drink, because we have done evil against the Lord.
bbe@Jeremiah:8:15 @We were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there is only a great fear.
bbe@Jeremiah:8:22 @Is there no life-giving oil in Gilead? is there no expert in medical arts? why then have my people not been made well?
bbe@Jeremiah:9:6 @There is wrong on wrong, deceit on deceit; they have given up the knowledge of me, says the Lord.
bbe@Jeremiah:9:10 @Give yourselves to weeping, crying out in sorrow for the mountains; and for the fields of the waste land send up a song of grief, because they are burned up, so that no one goes through; there is no sound of cattle; the bird of the heavens and the beast are in flight and are gone.
bbe@Jeremiah:9:11 @And I will make Jerusalem a mass of broken stones, the living-place of jackals; and I will make the towns of Judah a waste, with no man living there.
bbe@Jeremiah:10:6 @There is no one like you, O Lord; you are great and your name is great in power.
bbe@Jeremiah:10:7 @Who would not have fear of you, O King of the nations? for it is your right: for among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is no one like you.
bbe@Jeremiah:10:13 @At the sound of his voice there is a massing of waters in the heavens, and he makes the mists go up from the ends of the earth; he makes the thunder-flames for the rain, and sends out the wind from his store-houses.
bbe@Jeremiah:10:14 @Then every man becomes like a beast without knowledge; every gold-worker is put to shame by the image he has made: for his metal image is deceit, and there is no breath in them.
bbe@Jeremiah:10:20 @My tent is pulled down and all my cords are broken: my children have gone from me, and they are not: no longer is there anyone to give help in stretching out my tent and hanging up my curtains.
bbe@Jeremiah:11:9 @And the Lord said to me, There is an evil design at work among the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem.
bbe@Jeremiah:11:19 @But I was like a gentle lamb taken to be put to death; I had no thought that they were designing evil against me, saying, Come and let us make trouble his food, cutting him off from the land of the living, so that there may be no more memory of his name.
bbe@Jeremiah:13:4 @Take the band which you got for a price, which is round your body, and go to Parah and put it in a secret place there in a hole of the rock.
bbe@Jeremiah:13:6 @Then after a long time, the Lord said to me, Up! go to Parah and get the band which I gave you orders to put there.
bbe@Jeremiah:13:7 @So I went to Parah and, uncovering the hole, took the band from the place where I had put it away: and the band was damaged and of no use for anything.
bbe@Jeremiah:13:19 @The towns of the south are shut up, and there is no one to make them open: Judah is taken away as prisoners; all Judah is taken away as prisoners.
bbe@Jeremiah:13:20 @Let your eyes be lifted up (O Jerusalem), and see those who are coming from the north. Where is the flock which was given to you, your beautiful flock?
bbe@Jeremiah:14:1 @The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah when there was no water.
bbe@Jeremiah:14:3 @Their great men have sent their servants for water: they come to the holes and there is no water to be seen; they come back with nothing in their vessels; they are overcome with shame and fear, covering their heads.
bbe@Jeremiah:14:4 @Those who do work on the land are in fear, for there has been no rain on the land, and the farmers are shamed, covering their heads.
bbe@Jeremiah:14:5 @And the roe, giving birth in the field, lets her young one be uncared for, because there is no grass.
bbe@Jeremiah:14:6 @And the asses of the field on the open hilltops are opening their mouths wide like jackals to get air; their eyes are hollow because there is no grass.
bbe@Jeremiah:14:16 @And the people to whom they are prophets will be pushed out dead into the streets of Jerusalem, because there is no food, and because of the sword; and they will have no one to put their bodies into the earth, them or their wives or their sons or their daughters: for I will let loose their evil-doing on them.
bbe@Jeremiah:14:18 @If I go out into the open country, there are those put to death by the sword! and if I go into the town, there are those who are diseased from need of food! for the prophet and the priest go about in the land and have no knowledge.
bbe@Jeremiah:14:19 @Have you completely given up Judah? is your soul turned in disgust from Zion? why have you given us blows from which there is no one to make us well? we were looking for peace, but no good came; and for a time of well-being, but there was only a great fear.
bbe@Jeremiah:15:2 @And it will be, when they say to you, Where are we to go? then you are to say to them, The Lord has said, Such as are for death, to death; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are to be in need of food, to need of food; and such as are to be taken away prisoners, to be taken away.
bbe@Jeremiah:16:4 @Death from evil diseases will overtake them; there will be no weeping for them and their bodies will not be put to rest; they will be like waste on the face of the earth: the sword and need of food will put an end to them; their dead bodies will be meat for the birds of heaven and for the beasts of the earth.
bbe@Jeremiah:16:13 @For this reason I will send you away out of this land into a land which is strange to you, to you and to your fathers; there you will be the servants of other gods day and night, and you will have no mercy from me.
bbe@Jeremiah:16:15 @But, By the living Lord, who took the children of Israel up out of the land of the north, and from all the countries where he had sent them: and I will take them back again to their land which I gave to their fathers.
bbe@Jeremiah:16:17 @For my eyes are on all their ways: there is no cover for them from my face, and their evil-doing is not kept secret from my eyes.
bbe@Jeremiah:16:19 @O Lord, my strength and my strong tower, my safe place in the day of trouble, the nations will come to you from the ends of the earth, and say, The heritage of our fathers is nothing but deceit, even false things in which there is no profit.
bbe@Jeremiah:17:15 @See, they say to me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come now.
bbe@Jeremiah:17:19 @This is what the Lord has said to me: Go and take your place in the doorway of Benjamin, where the kings of Judah come in and by which they go out, and in all the doorways of Jerusalem;
bbe@Jeremiah:17:25 @Then through the doors of this town there will come kings and princes, seated on the seat of David, going in carriages and on horseback, they and their princes, and the men of Judah and the people of Jerusalem: and this town will keep its place for ever.
bbe@Jeremiah:18:2 @Up! go down to the potter's house, and there I will let my words come to your ears.
bbe@Jeremiah:18:12 @But they will say, There is no hope: we will go on in our designs, and every one of us will do what he is moved by the pride of his evil heart to do.
bbe@Jeremiah:19:2 @And go out to the valley of the son of Hinnom, by the way into the door of broken pots, and there say in a loud voice the words which I will give you;
bbe@Jeremiah:19:11 @And say to them, This is what the Lord of armies has said: Even so will this people and this town be broken by me, as a potter's bottle is broken and may not be put together again: and the bodies of the dead will be put in the earth in Topheth, till there is no more room.
bbe@Jeremiah:19:14 @Then Jeremiah came from Topheth, where the Lord had sent him to give the prophet's word; and he took his place in the open square of the Lord's house, and said to all the people,
bbe@Jeremiah:20:6 @And you, Pashhur, and all who are in your house, will go away prisoners: you will come to Babylon, and there your body will be put to rest, you and all your friends, to whom you said false words.
bbe@Jeremiah:20:10 @For numbers of them say evil secretly in my hearing (there is fear on every side): they say, Come, let us give witness against him; all my nearest friends, who are watching for my fall, say, It may be that he will be taken by deceit, and we will get the better of him and give him punishment.
bbe@Jeremiah:20:14 @A curse on the day of my birth: let there be no blessing on the day when my mother had me.
bbe@Jeremiah:22:1 @This is what the Lord has said: Go down to the house of the king of Judah and there give him this word,
bbe@Jeremiah:22:4 @For if you truly do this, then there will come in through the doors of this house kings seated on the seat of David, going in carriages and on horseback, he and his servants and his people
bbe@Jeremiah:22:10 @Let there be no weeping for the dead, and make no songs of grief for him: but make bitter weeping for him who has gone away, for he will never come back or see again the country of his birth.
bbe@Jeremiah:22:11 @For this is what the Lord has said about Shallum, the son of Josiah, king of Judah, who became king in place of Josiah his father, who went out from this place: He will never come back there again:
bbe@Jeremiah:22:12 @But death will come to him in the place where they have taken him away prisoner, and he will never see this land again.
bbe@Jeremiah:22:24 @By my life, says the Lord, even if Coniah, the son of Jehoiakim, king of Judah, was the ring on my right hand, even from there I would have you pulled off;
bbe@Jeremiah:22:26 @I will send you out, and your mother who gave you birth, into another country not the land of your birth; and there death will come to you.
bbe@Jeremiah:22:28 @Is this man Coniah a broken vessel of no value? is he a vessel in which there is no pleasure? why are they violently sent out, he and his seed, into a land which is strange to them?
bbe@Jeremiah:23:3 @And I will get the rest of my flock together from all the countries where I have sent them, and will make them come back again to their resting-place; and they will have offspring and be increased.
bbe@Jeremiah:23:4 @And I will put over them keepers who will take care of them: never again will they be overcome with fear or be troubled, and there will not be the loss of one of them, says the Lord.
bbe@Jeremiah:23:8 @But, By the living Lord, who took up the seed of Israel, and made them come out of the north country, and from all the countries where I had sent them; and they will be living in the land which is theirs.
bbe@Jeremiah:23:12 @For this cause their steps will be slipping on their way: they will be forced on into the dark and have a fall there: for I will send evil on them in the year of their punishment, says the Lord.
bbe@Jeremiah:23:24 @In what secret place may a man take cover without my seeing him? says the Lord. Is there any place in heaven or earth where I am not? says the Lord.
bbe@Jeremiah:23:33 @And if this people, or the prophet, or a priest, questioning you, says, What word of weight is there from the Lord? then you are to say to them, You are the word, for I will not be troubled with you any more, says the Lord.
bbe@Jeremiah:24:9 @I will give them up to be a cause of fear and of trouble among all the kingdoms of the earth; to be a name of shame and common talk and a cutting word and a curse in all the places wherever I will send them wandering.
bbe@Jeremiah:25:33 @And at that day, the bodies of those whom the Lord has put to death will be seen from one end of the earth even to the other end of the earth: there will be no weeping for them, their bodies will not be taken up or put to rest in the earth; they will be like waste on the face of the land.
bbe@Jeremiah:25:35 @There will be no way of flight for the keepers of sheep, no road for the chiefs of the flock to get away safely.
bbe@Jeremiah:25:37 @And there is no sound in the fields of peace, because of the burning wrath of the Lord.
bbe@Jeremiah:26:14 @As for me, here I am in your hands: do with me whatever seems good and right in your opinion.
bbe@Jeremiah:26:20 @And there was another man who was a prophet of the Lord, Uriah, the son of Shemaiah of Kiriath-jearim; he said against this town and against this land all the words which Jeremiah had said:
bbe@Jeremiah:27:22 @They will be taken away to Babylon, and there they will be till the day when I send their punishment on them, says the Lord. Then I will take them up and put them back in their place.
bbe@Jeremiah:29:6 @Take wives and have sons and daughters, and take wives for your sons, and give your daughters to husbands, so that they may have sons and daughters; and be increased in number there and do not become less.
bbe@Jeremiah:29:13 @And you will be searching for me and I will be there, when you have gone after me with all your heart.
bbe@Jeremiah:29:14 @I will be near you again, says the Lord, and your fate will be changed, and I will get you together from all the nations and from all the places where I had sent you away, says the Lord; and I will take you back again to the place from which I sent you away prisoners.
bbe@Jeremiah:29:18 @I will go after them, attacking them with the sword and with need of food and with disease, and will make them a cause of fear to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse and a wonder and a surprise and a name of shame among all the nations where I have sent them:
bbe@Jeremiah:30:7 @Ha! for that day is so great that there is no day like it: it is the time of Jacob's trouble: but he will get salvation from it.
bbe@Jeremiah:30:10 @So have no fear, O Jacob, my servant, says the Lord; and do not be troubled, O Israel: for see, I will make you come back from far away, and your seed from the land where they are prisoners; and Jacob will come back, and will be quiet and at peace, and no one will give him cause for fear.
bbe@Jeremiah:30:11 @For I am with you, says the Lord, to be your saviour: for I will put an end to all the nations where I have sent you wandering, but I will not put an end to you completely: though with wise purpose I will put right your errors, and will not let you go quite without punishment.
bbe@Jeremiah:30:13 @There is no help for your wound, there is nothing to make you well.
