acv@Lamentations:3:3 @ Surely he turns his hand against me, again and again all the day.

acv@Lamentations:3:4 @ He has made my flesh and my skin old. He has broken my bones.

acv@Lamentations:3:5 @ He has built against me, and encompassed me with gall and travail.

acv@Lamentations:3:6 @ He has made me to dwell in dark places, as those who have long been dead.

acv@Lamentations:3:7 @ He has walled me around, that I cannot go forth. He has made my chain heavy.

acv@Lamentations:3:8 @ Yea, when I cry, and call for help, he shuts out my prayer.

acv@Lamentations:3:9 @ He has walled up my ways with hewn stone. He has made my paths crooked.

acv@Lamentations:3:10 @ He is to me as a bear laying in wait, as a lion in concealed places.

acv@Lamentations:3:11 @ He has turned aside my ways, and pulled me in pieces. He has made me desolate.

acv@Lamentations:3:12 @ He has bent his bow, and set me as a mark for the arrow.

acv@Lamentations:3:13 @ He has caused the shafts of his quiver to enter into my reins.

acv@Lamentations:3:14 @ I have become a derision to all my people, and their song all the day.

acv@Lamentations:3:15 @ He has filled me with bitterness. He has sated me with wormwood.

acv@Lamentations:3:17 @ And thou have removed my soul far off from peace. I forgot prosperity.

acv@Ezekiel:1:6 @ And each one had four faces, and each one of them had four wings.

acv@Ezekiel:1:7 @ And their feet were straight feet, and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf's foot, and they sparkled like burnished brass.

acv@Ezekiel:1:8 @ And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides. And those four had their faces and their wings [thus]:

acv@Ezekiel:1:9 @ Their wings were joined one to another. They did not turn when they went; they went each one straight forward.

acv@Ezekiel:1:10 @ As for the likeness of their faces, they had the face of a man. And those four had the face of a lion on the right side, and those four had the face of an ox on the left side, those four also had the face of an eagle.

acv@Ezekiel:1:11 @ And their faces and their wings were separate above, two [wings] of each one were joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.

acv@Ezekiel:1:12 @ And they went each one straight forward. Where the spirit was to go, they went. They did not turn when they went.

acv@Ezekiel:1:13 @ As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, like the appearance of torches. It went up and down among the living creatures, and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth l

acv@Ezekiel:1:15 @ Now as I beheld the living creatures, behold, one wheel [was] upon the earth beside the living creatures, for each of the four faces of it.

acv@Ezekiel:1:16 @ The appearance of the wheels and their work was like a beryl. And those four had one likeness, and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel within a wheel.

acv@Ezekiel:1:17 @ When they went, they went in their four directions. They did not turn when they went.

acv@Ezekiel:1:18 @ As for their rims, they were high and fearful. And those four had their rims full of eyes round about.

acv@Ezekiel:1:19 @ And when the living creatures went, the wheels went beside them. And when the living creatures were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up.

acv@Ezekiel:1:20 @ Wherever the spirit was to go, they went; there the spirit was to go. And the wheels were lifted up beside them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

acv@Ezekiel:1:21 @ When those went, these went, and when those stood, these stood, and when those were lifted up from the earth, the wheels were lifted up beside them, for the spirit of the living creature was in the wheels.

acv@Ezekiel:1:23 @ And under the firmament their wings were straight, the one toward the other. Each one had two which covered their bodies on this side, and each one had two which covered on that side.

acv@Ezekiel:1:24 @ And when they went, I heard the noise of their wings like the noise of great waters, like the voice of the Almighty, a noise of tumult like the noise of a host. When they stood, they let down their wings.

acv@Ezekiel:1:25 @ And there was a voice above the firmament that was over their heads. When they stood, they let down their wings.

acv@Ezekiel:1:26 @ And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone. And upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man upon it above.

acv@Ezekiel:3:9 @ As an adamant, harder than flint, I have made thy forehead. Fear them not, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they are a rebellious house.

acv@Daniel:8:3 @ Then I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and, behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns. And the two horns were high, but one was higher than the other, and the higher came up last.

acv@Daniel:8:4 @ I saw the ram pushing westward, and northward, and southward, and no beasts could stand before him, nor was there any that could deliver out of his hand, but he did according to his will, and magnified himself.

acv@Daniel:8:7 @ And I saw him come close to the ram. And he was moved with anger against him, and smote the ram, and broke his two horns. And there was no power in the ram to stand before him, but he cast him down to the ground, and trampled upon

acv@Daniel:8:8 @ And the he-goat magnified himself exceedingly. And when he was strong, the great horn was broken, and instead of it there came up four notable [horns] toward the four winds of heaven.

acv@Daniel:8:9 @ And out of one of them came forth a little horn, which grew exceedingly great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious [land].

acv@Daniel:8:10 @ And it grew great, even to the host of heaven. And it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and trampled upon them.

acv@Daniel:8:11 @ Yea, it magnified itself, even to the Prince of the host. And it took away from him the continual [burnt-offering], and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

acv@Daniel:8:12 @ And the host was given over [to it] together with the continual [burnt-offering] through transgression. And it cast down truth to the ground, and it did [its pleasure] and prospered.
