nkjv@Isaiah:23:17 @ And it shall be, at the end of seventy years, that the LORD will deal with Tyre. She will return to her hire, and commit fornication with all the kingdoms of the world on the face of the earth.

nkjv@Isaiah:23:18 @ Her gain and her pay will be set apart for the LORD; it will not be treasured nor laid up, for her gain will be for those who dwell before the LORD, to eat sufficiently, and for fine clothing.

nkjv@Isaiah:25:1 @ O LORD, You are my God. I will exalt You, I will praise Your name, For You have done wonderful things; Your counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

nkjv@Isaiah:25:2 @ For You have made a city a ruin, A fortified city a ruin, A palace of foreigners to be a city no more; It will never be rebuilt.

nkjv@Isaiah:25:3 @ Therefore the strong people will glorify You; The city of the terrible nations will fear You.

nkjv@Isaiah:25:4 @ For You have been a strength to the poor, A strength to the needy in his distress, A refuge from the storm, A shade from the heat; For the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.

nkjv@Isaiah:25:6 @ And in this mountain The LORD of hosts will make for all people A feast of choice pieces, A feast of wines on the lees, Of fat things full of marrow, Of well-refined wines on the lees.

nkjv@Isaiah:30:31 @ For through the voice of the LORD Assyria will be beaten down, As He strikes with the rod.

nkjv@Isaiah:30:33 @ For Tophet was established of old, Yes, for the king it is prepared. He has made it deep and large; Its pyre is fire with much wood; The breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, Kindles it.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:20 @ You shall take some of its blood and put it on the four horns of the altar, on the four corners of the ledge, and on the rim around it; thus you shall cleanse it and make atonement for it.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:22 @ On the second day you shall offer a kid of the goats without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they cleansed it with the bull.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:24 @ When you offer them before the LORD, the priests shall throw salt on them, and they will offer them up as a burnt offering to the LORD.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:25 @ Every day for seven days you shall prepare a goat for a sin offering; they shall also prepare a young bull and a ram from the flock, both without blemish.

nkjv@Ezekiel:43:26 @ Seven days they shall make atonement for the altar and purify it, and so consecrate it.

nkjv@Daniel:3:3 @ So the satraps, the administrators, the governors, the counselors, the treasurers, the judges, the magistrates, and all the officials of the provinces gathered together for the dedication of the image that King Nebuchadnezzar had set up; and they stood before the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

nkjv@Daniel:3:8 @ Therefore at that time certain Chaldeans came forward and accused the Jews.

nkjv@Daniel:3:9 @ They spoke and said to King Nebuchadnezzar, "O king, live forever!

nkjv@Daniel:4:30 @ The king spoke, saying, "Is not this great Babylon, that I have built for a royal dwelling by my mighty power and for the honor of my majesty?"

nkjv@Daniel:4:34 @ And at the end of the time I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me; and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever: For His dominion is an everlasting dominion, And His kingdom is from generation to generation.

nkjv@Daniel:4:36 @ At the same time my reason returned to me, and for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and splendor returned to me. My counselors and nobles resorted to me, I was restored to my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added to me.

nkjv@Daniel:5:1 @ Belshazzar the king made a great feast for a thousand of his lords, and drank wine in the presence of the thousand.

nkjv@Daniel:5:10 @ The queen, because of the words of the king and his lords, came to the banquet hall. The queen spoke, saying, "O king, live forever! Do not let your thoughts trouble you, nor let your countenance change.

nkjv@Daniel:9:16 @ "O Lord, according to all Your righteousness, I pray, let Your anger and Your fury be turned away from Your city Jerusalem, Your holy mountain; because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and Your people are a reproach to all those around us.

nkjv@Daniel:9:17 @ Now therefore, our God, hear the prayer of Your servant, and his supplications, and for the Lord's sake cause Your face to shine on Your sanctuary, which is desolate.

nkjv@Daniel:9:18 @ O my God, incline Your ear and hear; open Your eyes and see our desolations, and the city which is called by Your name; for we do not present our supplications before You because of our righteous deeds, but because of Your great mercies.

nkjv@Daniel:9:19 @ O Lord, hear! O Lord, forgive! O Lord, listen and act! Do not delay for Your own sake, my God, for Your city and Your people are called by Your name."

nkjv@Daniel:9:20 @ Now while I was speaking, praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the LORD my God for the holy mountain of my God,

nkjv@Daniel:9:22 @ And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, "O Daniel, I have now come forth to give you skill to understand.

nkjv@Daniel:9:23 @ At the beginning of your supplications the command went out, and I have come to tell you, for you are greatly beloved; therefore consider the matter, and understand the vision:

nkjv@Daniel:9:24 @ "Seventy weeks are determined For your people and for your holy city, To finish the transgression, To make an end of sins, To make reconciliation for iniquity, To bring in everlasting righteousness, To seal up vision and prophecy, And to anoint the Most Holy.

nkjv@Daniel:9:25 @ "Know therefore and understand, That from the going forth of the command To restore and build Jerusalem Until Messiah the Prince, There shall be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks; The street shall be built again, and the wall, Even in troublesome times.

nkjv@Daniel:9:26 @ "And after the sixty-two weeks Messiah shall be cut off, but not for Himself; And the people of the prince who is to come Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. The end of it shall be with a flood, And till the end of the war desolations are determined.

nkjv@Daniel:9:27 @ Then he shall confirm a covenant with many for one week; But in the middle of the week He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate, Even until the consummation, which is determined, Is poured out on the desolate."

nkjv@Daniel:10:7 @ And I, Daniel, alone saw the vision, for the men who were with me did not see the vision; but a great terror fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.

nkjv@Daniel:10:8 @ Therefore I was left alone when I saw this great vision, and no strength remained in me; for my vigor was turned to frailty in me, and I retained no strength.

nkjv@Daniel:10:11 @ And he said to me, "O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for I have now been sent to you." While he was speaking this word to me, I stood trembling.

nkjv@Daniel:10:12 @ Then he said to me, "Do not fear, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard; and I have come because of your words.

nkjv@Daniel:10:13 @ But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days; and behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I had been left alone there with the kings of Persia.

nkjv@Daniel:10:14 @ Now I have come to make you understand what will happen to your people in the latter days, for the vision refers to many days yet to come."

nkjv@Daniel:10:16 @ And suddenly, one having the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips; then I opened my mouth and spoke, saying to him who stood before me, "My lord, because of the vision my sorrows have overwhelmed me, and I have retained no strength.

nkjv@Daniel:10:17 @ For how can this servant of my lord talk with you, my lord? As for me, no strength remains in me now, nor is any breath left in me."

nkjv@Daniel:10:19 @ And he said, "O man greatly beloved, fear not! Peace be to you; be strong, yes, be strong!" So when he spoke to me I was strengthened, and said, "Let my lord speak, for you have strengthened me."

nkjv@Daniel:10:20 @ Then he said, "Do you know why I have come to you? And now I must return to fight with the prince of Persia; and when I have gone forth, indeed the prince of Greece will come.

nkjv@Daniel:11:4 @ And when he has arisen, his kingdom shall be broken up and divided toward the four winds of heaven, but not among his posterity nor according to his dominion with which he ruled; for his kingdom shall be uprooted, even for others besides these.

nkjv@Daniel:11:6 @ And at the end of some years they shall join forces, for the daughter of the king of the South shall go to the king of the North to make an agreement; but she shall not retain the power of her authority, and neither he nor his authority shall stand; but she shall be given up, with those who brought her, and with him who begot her, and with him who strengthened her in those times.

nkjv@Daniel:11:7 @ But from a branch of her roots one shall arise in his place, who shall come with an army, enter the fortress of the king of the North, and deal with them and prevail.

nkjv@Daniel:11:10 @ However his sons shall stir up strife, and assemble a multitude of great forces; and one shall certainly come and overwhelm and pass through; then he shall return to his fortress and stir up strife.

nkjv@Daniel:11:13 @ For the king of the North will return and muster a multitude greater than the former, and shall certainly come at the end of some years with a great army and much equipment.

nkjv@Daniel:11:15 @ So the king of the North shall come and build a siege mound, and take a fortified city; and the forces of the South shall not withstand him. Even his choice troops shall have no strength to resist.

nkjv@Daniel:11:17 @ "He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do. And he shall give him the daughter of women to destroy it; but she shall not stand with him, or be for him.

nkjv@Daniel:11:19 @ Then he shall turn his face toward the fortress of his own land; but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found.

nkjv@Daniel:11:22 @ With the force of a flood they shall be swept away from before him and be broken, and also the prince of the covenant.

nkjv@Daniel:11:23 @ And after the league is made with him he shall act deceitfully, for he shall come up and become strong with a small number of people.

nkjv@Daniel:11:24 @ He shall enter peaceably, even into the richest places of the province; and he shall do what his fathers have not done, nor his forefathers: he shall disperse among them the plunder, spoil, and riches; and he shall devise his plans against the strongholds, but only for a time.

nkjv@Daniel:11:25 @ "He shall stir up his power and his courage against the king of the South with a great army. And the king of the South shall be stirred up to battle with a very great and mighty army; but he shall not stand, for they shall devise plans against him.

nkjv@Daniel:11:27 @ Both these kings' hearts shall be bent on evil, and they shall speak lies at the same table; but it shall not prosper, for the end will still be at the appointed time.

nkjv@Daniel:11:29 @ "At the appointed time he shall return and go toward the south; but it shall not be like the former or the latter.

nkjv@Daniel:11:30 @ For ships from Cyprus shall come against him; therefore he shall be grieved, and return in rage against the holy covenant, and do damage. "So he shall return and show regard for those who forsake the holy covenant.

nkjv@Daniel:11:31 @ And forces shall be mustered by him, and they shall defile the sanctuary fortress; then they shall take away the daily sacrifices, and place there the abomination of desolation.

nkjv@Daniel:11:33 @ And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering.

nkjv@Daniel:11:35 @ And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.

nkjv@Daniel:11:36 @ "Then the king shall do according to his own will: he shall exalt and magnify himself above every god, shall speak blasphemies against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the wrath has been accomplished; for what has been determined shall be done.

nkjv@Daniel:11:37 @ He shall regard neither the God of his fathers nor the desire of women, nor regard any god; for he shall exalt himself above them all.

nkjv@Daniel:11:38 @ But in their place he shall honor a god of fortresses; and a god which his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and pleasant things.

nkjv@Daniel:11:39 @ Thus he shall act against the strongest fortresses with a foreign god, which he shall acknowledge, and advance its glory; and he shall cause them to rule over many, and divide the land for gain.

nkjv@Daniel:11:44 @ But news from the east and the north shall trouble him; therefore he shall go out with great fury to destroy and annihilate many.

nkjv@Daniel:12:3 @ Those who are wise shall shine Like the brightness of the firmament, And those who turn many to righteousness Like the stars forever and ever.

nkjv@Daniel:12:7 @ Then I heard the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, when he held up his right hand and his left hand to heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever, that it shall be for a time, times, and half a time; and when the power of the holy people has been completely shattered, all these things shall be finished.

nkjv@Daniel:12:9 @ And he said, "Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

nkjv@Daniel:12:13 @ "But you, go your way till the end; for you shall rest, and will arise to your inheritance at the end of the days."
