1Samuel:1:1 @ Now there was a certain man of Ramath of Zophim, of Mount Ephraim, and his name [was] Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephrathite.
jub@1Samuel:1:2 @ And he had two wives; the name of the one [was] Hannah, and the name of the other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.
jub@1Samuel:1:3 @ And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the LORD of the hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, [were] there.
jub@1Samuel:1:4 @ And when the day would come, Elkanah would sacrifice, and he would give portions to Peninnah his wife and to all her sons and her daughters.
jub@1Samuel:1:5 @ But unto Hannah he would give a worthy portion; for he loved Hannah, even though the LORD had shut up her womb.
jub@1Samuel:1:6 @ And her rival provoked her to anger and sorrow because the LORD had shut up her womb.
jub@1Samuel:1:7 @ And this would happen year by year when she went up to the house of the LORD, so she would provoke her; therefore, she would weep and not eat.
jub@1Samuel:1:8 @ Then Elkanah, her husband, said to her, Hannah, why dost thou weep? And why dost thou not eat? And why is thy heart grieved? [Am] I not better to thee than ten sons?
jub@1Samuel:1:9 @ So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh and after they had drunk. Now Eli the priest sat upon a seat by a post of the temple of the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:1:10 @ And she [was] in bitterness of soul and prayed unto the LORD and wept sore;
jub@1Samuel:1:11 @ and she vowed a vow and said, O LORD of the hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thy handmaid and remember me and not forget thy handmaid but wilt give unto thy handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and no razor shall come upon his head.
jub@1Samuel:1:12 @ And it came to pass as she continued praying before the LORD that Eli was observing her mouth.
jub@1Samuel:1:13 @ Now Hannah spoke in her heart and only her lips moved, but her voice was not heard; therefore, Eli thought she was drunk.
jub@1Samuel:1:14 @ And Eli said unto her, How long wilt thou be drunken? Put away thy wine from thee.
jub@1Samuel:1:15 @ And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I [am] a woman of a sorrowful spirit; I have drunk neither wine nor strong drink but have poured out my soul before the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:1:16 @ Do not count thy handmaid for a daughter of Belial, for out of the abundance of my complaint and grief I have waited until now to speak.
jub@1Samuel:1:17 @ Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace, and the God of Israel grant [thee] thy petition that thou hast asked of him.
jub@1Samuel:1:18 @ And she said, Let thy handmaid find grace in thy sight. So the woman went her way, and ate, and her countenance was no longer [sad].
jub@1Samuel:1:19 @ And they rose up in the morning early and worshipped before the LORD and returned and came to their house to Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and the LORD remembered her.
jub@1Samuel:1:20 @ Therefore, it came to pass when the time was come about after Hannah had conceived, she bore a son and called his name Samuel, [saying], Because I have asked him of the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:1:21 @ And the man Elkanah and all his house went up to offer unto the LORD the accustomed sacrifice and his vow.
jub@1Samuel:1:22 @ But Hannah did not go up, for she said unto her husband, [I will not go up] until the child is weaned, and [then] I will bring him that he may be presented before the LORD and abide there for ever.
jub@1Samuel:1:23 @ And Elkanah, her husband, said unto her, Do what seems good unto thee; tarry until thou hast weaned him; only [let] the LORD establish his word. So the woman abode and gave her son suck until she weaned him.
jub@1Samuel:1:24 @ And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with three bullocks and one ephah of flour and a bottle of wine, and brought him unto the house of the LORD in Shiloh; and the child [was] young.
jub@1Samuel:1:25 @ And they slew a bullock and brought the child to Eli.
jub@1Samuel:1:26 @ And she said, Oh my lord, [as] thy soul lives, my lord, I [am] the woman that stood by thee here, praying unto the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:1:27 @ For this child I prayed, and the LORD has given me my petition which I asked of him.
jub@1Samuel:1:28 @ Therefore, I also have given him back to the LORD; as long as he lives he shall belong to the LORD. And he worshipped the LORD there.:
jub@1Samuel:2:1 @ And Hannah prayed and said, My heart rejoices in the LORD, my horn is exalted in the LORD; my mouth is enlarged over my enemies because I have rejoiced in thy saving health.
jub@1Samuel:2:2 @ [There is] none holy as the LORD, for [there is] none beside thee; neither [is there] any strong One like our God.
jub@1Samuel:2:3 @ Do not multiply thyself speaking great and lofty things; let arrogant words cease from your mouth, for the LORD [is] the all-knowing God, and the [magnificent] works are his.
jub@1Samuel:2:4 @ The bows of the mighty men [have been] broken, and the weak are girded with strength.
jub@1Samuel:2:5 @ [Those that were] full have hired themselves out for bread, and [those that were] hungry ceased so that the barren has given birth to seven, and she that has many children is waxed feeble.
jub@1Samuel:2:6 @ The LORD kills, and he gives life; he brings down to Sheol and raises up.
jub@1Samuel:2:7 @ The LORD makes poor and makes rich; he brings low and lifts up.
jub@1Samuel:2:8 @ He raises up the poor out of the dust [and] lifts up the beggar from the dunghill to set [them] among princes and to make them inherit the throne of glory. For the pillars of the earth [are] the LORD'S, and he has set the world upon them.
jub@1Samuel:2:9 @ He keeps the feet of his saints, and the wicked perish in darkness, for no man shall prevail by [their own] strength.
jub@1Samuel:2:10 @ LORD, thine adversaries shall be broken to pieces; out of heaven he shall thunder upon them. The LORD shall judge the ends of the earth, and he shall give strength unto his king and exalt the horn of his anointed.
jub@1Samuel:2:11 @ And Elkanah went to Ramah to his house. And the child ministered unto the LORD before Eli the priest.
jub@1Samuel:2:12 @ But the sons of Eli [were] sons of Belial; they did not know the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:2:13 @ [It was] the priests' custom with the people [that] when anyone offered a sacrifice, the priest's servant would come, while the flesh was being boiled, with a fleshhook of three teeth in his hand;
jub@1Samuel:2:14 @ and he would strike [it] into the pan or kettle or caldron or pot, and all that the fleshhook brought up, the priest took for himself. Thus would they do in Shiloh to all the Israelites that went there.
jub@1Samuel:2:15 @ Likewise, before they burnt the fat, the priest's servant would come and say to the man that sacrificed, Give flesh to roast for the priest, for he will not take cooked flesh of thee, but raw.
jub@1Samuel:2:16 @ And [if] the man would say unto him, Let them not fail to burn the fat today and [then] take [as much] as thy soul desires, then he would answer him, No, but thou shalt give [it to me] now, and if not, I will take [it] by force.
jub@1Samuel:2:17 @ Therefore, the sin of the young men was very great before the LORD, for men despised the present of the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:2:18 @ But Samuel ministered before the LORD, [being] a child, girded with a linen ephod.
jub@1Samuel:2:19 @ Moreover his mother made him a little coat and brought [it] to him each year when she came up with her husband to offer the accustomed sacrifice.
jub@1Samuel:2:20 @ And Eli blessed Elkanah and his wife and said, The LORD give thee seed of this woman for the petition which was asked of the LORD. And they went unto their own home.
jub@1Samuel:2:21 @ And the LORD visited Hannah so that she conceived and gave birth to three sons and two daughters. And the child Samuel grew before the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:2:22 @ Now Eli was very old and heard all that his sons did unto all Israel and how they lay with the women that served [at] the door of the tabernacle of the testimony.
jub@1Samuel:2:23 @ And he said unto them, Why do ye [do] such things? For I hear from all the people of your evil dealings.
jub@1Samuel:2:24 @ No, my sons, for [it is] no good report that I hear that ye cause the people of the LORD to transgress.
jub@1Samuel:2:25 @ If one man sins against another, the judges shall judge him, but if someone sins against the LORD, who shall intreat for him? Notwithstanding they did not hearken unto the voice of their father because the LORD had [already] decided to kill them.
jub@1Samuel:2:26 @ And the child Samuel kept on growing and was in favour both with the LORD and also with men.
jub@1Samuel:2:27 @ And a man of God came unto Eli and said unto him, Thus saith the LORD, Did I not plainly appear unto the house of thy father when they were in Egypt in the house of Pharaoh?
jub@1Samuel:2:28 @ And I chose him out of all the tribes of Israel [to be] my priest, to offer upon my altar, to burn incense, to wear an ephod before me, and I gave unto the house of thy father all the offerings on fire of the sons of Israel.
jub@1Samuel:2:29 @ Why do ye trample my sacrifices and my offerings which I have commanded [to be offered] in my tabernacle and honor thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?
jub@1Samuel:2:30 @ Therefore, the LORD God of Israel said, I had said indeed [that] thy house and the house of thy father should walk before me for ever, but now the LORD said, It shall never be; for those that honor me I will honor, and those that lightly esteem me shall be vile.
jub@1Samuel:2:31 @ Behold, the days come that I will cut off thine arm and the arm of thy father's house that there shall not be an old man in thy house.
jub@1Samuel:2:32 @ And thou shalt see a competitor [in my] tabernacle in all the things in which I shall do good unto Israel, and there shall not be an old man in thy house for ever.
jub@1Samuel:2:33 @ I shall not [totally] cut off [all] thy men from my altar to consume thine eyes and to grieve thy soul, and all the increase of thy house shall die as [young] men.
jub@1Samuel:2:34 @ And this [shall be] a sign unto thee that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas: in one day they shall both die.
jub@1Samuel:2:35 @ And I will raise me up a faithful priest [that] shall do according to [that] which [is] in my heart and in my mind, and I will build him a sure house, and he shall walk before my anointed for ever.
jub@1Samuel:2:36 @ And it shall come to pass [that] every one that is left in thy house shall come [and] crouch to him for a piece of silver and a morsel of bread and shall say, Put me, I pray thee, into some aspect of the priesthood that I may eat a piece of bread.:
jub@1Samuel:3:1 @ And the child Samuel ministered unto the LORD before Eli. And the word of the LORD was precious in those days; [there was] no open vision.
jub@1Samuel:3:2 @ And it came to pass one day when Eli [was] lain down in his place, his eyes began to wax dim, that he could not see;
jub@1Samuel:3:3 @ and before the lamp of God was put out, Samuel was sleeping in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God [was];
jub@1Samuel:3:4 @ and the LORD called Samuel, and he answered, Here [am] I.
jub@1Samuel:3:5 @ And he ran unto Eli and said, Here [am] I, for thou didst call me. And he said, I did not call; lie down again. And he went and lay down.
jub@1Samuel:3:6 @ And the LORD called Samuel yet again. And Samuel arose and went to Eli and said, Here [am] I, for thou didst call me. And he answered, I did not call, my son; lie down again.
jub@1Samuel:3:7 @ Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither had the word of the LORD yet been revealed unto him.
jub@1Samuel:3:8 @ And the LORD called Samuel again the third time. And he arose and went to Eli and said, Here [am] I, for thou didst call me. Then Eli perceived that the LORD was calling the child.
jub@1Samuel:3:9 @ Therefore, Eli said unto Samuel, Go, lie down, and it shall be if he calls thee, that thou shalt say, Speak, LORD, for thy servant hears. So Samuel went and lay down in his place.
jub@1Samuel:3:10 @ And the LORD came and stood and called as at the other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant hears.
jub@1Samuel:3:11 @ And the LORD said unto Samuel, Behold, I will do a thing in Israel, at which both the ears of each one that hears it shall tingle.
jub@1Samuel:3:12 @ In that day I will perform against Eli all the things which I have spoken concerning his house; when I begin, I will also make an end.
jub@1Samuel:3:13 @ For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knows of (because his sons made themselves vile, and he did not restrain them).
jub@1Samuel:3:14 @ And therefore, I have sworn unto the house of Eli that the iniquity of Eli's house shall not be reconciled, [not] with sacrifices nor with presents for ever.
jub@1Samuel:3:15 @ And Samuel lay until the morning and opened the doors of the house of the LORD. And Samuel feared to show Eli the vision.
jub@1Samuel:3:16 @ Then Eli called Samuel and said, Samuel, my son. And he answered, Here [am] I.
jub@1Samuel:3:17 @ And he said, What [is] the word that [the LORD] has spoken unto thee? I pray thee do not hide [it] from me. God do so to thee and more also, if thou hide [any] thing from me of all the word that he spoke unto thee.
jub@1Samuel:3:18 @ And Samuel declared all of it to him without hiding any thing. Then he said, It [is] the LORD; let him do what seems good unto him.
jub@1Samuel:3:19 @ And Samuel grew, and the LORD was with him and did not let any of his words fall to the ground.
jub@1Samuel:3:20 @ And all Israel from Dan even to Beersheba knew that Samuel [was] a faithful prophet of the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:3:21 @ Thus the LORD appeared again in Shiloh, for the LORD manifested himself to Samuel in Shiloh with [the] word of the LORD.:
jub@1Samuel:4:1 @ And Samuel spoke unto all Israel. Now [at that time] Israel went out to meet the Philistines in battle and pitched [their] camp beside Ebenezer; and the Philistines pitched theirs in Aphek.
jub@1Samuel:4:2 @ And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel; and when they joined battle, Israel was smitten before the Philistines, who slew of the army in the field about four thousand men.
jub@1Samuel:4:3 @ And when the people returned into the camp, the elders of Israel said, Why has the LORD smitten us today before the Philistines? Let us bring the ark of the covenant of the LORD out of Shiloh unto us that when it comes among us, it may save us out of the hand of our enemies.
jub@1Samuel:4:4 @ So the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought from there the ark of the covenant of the LORD of the hosts, who dwells [between] the cherubim; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, [were] there with the ark of the covenant of God.
jub@1Samuel:4:5 @ And when the ark of the covenant of the LORD came into the camp, all Israel shouted with [such] a great shout that the earth trembled.
jub@1Samuel:4:6 @ And when the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, they said, What great shout [of joy is] this in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of the LORD had come into the camp.
jub@1Samuel:4:7 @ And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God has come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! For yesterday and day before yesterday it was not so.
jub@1Samuel:4:8 @ Woe unto us! Who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty gods? These [are] the gods that smote the Egyptians with all the plagues in the wilderness.
jub@1Samuel:4:9 @ Be strong and quit yourselves like men, O ye Philistines, that ye not serve the Hebrews as they have served you; quit yourselves like men and fight.
jub@1Samuel:4:10 @ And the Philistines fought, and Israel was smitten, and they fled each one into his tent, and there was a very great slaughter, for thirty thousand footmen of Israel fell.
jub@1Samuel:4:11 @ And the ark of God was taken, and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were slain.
jub@1Samuel:4:12 @ And running out of the battle, [a] man of Benjamin came to Shiloh that same day with his clothes rent and with earth upon his head.
jub@1Samuel:4:13 @ And when he came, behold Eli sat upon a seat by the wayside watching, for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And when the man came into the city and gave the news, all the city cried out.
jub@1Samuel:4:14 @ And when Eli heard the noise of the crying, he said, What [is] the noise of this tumult? And the man came in hastily and told Eli.
jub@1Samuel:4:15 @ Now Eli was ninety-eight years old, and his eyes had become dim so that he could not see.
jub@1Samuel:4:16 @ And the man said unto Eli, I come from the battle; I fled today out of the army. And he said [unto him], What has happened, my son?
jub@1Samuel:4:17 @ And the messenger answered and said, Israel fled before the Philistines, and there has been also a great slaughter among the people, and thy two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God was taken.
jub@1Samuel:4:18 @ And it came to pass when he made mention of the ark of God, [Eli] fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck broke, and he died; for he was an old man and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
jub@1Samuel:4:19 @ And his daughter-in-law, Phinehas' wife, was with child, [near] to be delivered, and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed, for her pains had come upon her.
jub@1Samuel:4:20 @ And about the time of her death the women that stood by her said unto her, Fear not, for thou hast given birth to a son. But she did not answer, neither did she regard [it].
jub@1Samuel:4:21 @ And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel! (Because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.)
jub@1Samuel:4:22 @ Therefore, she said, The glory is departed from Israel, for the ark of God is taken.:
jub@1Samuel:5:1 @ And the Philistines took the ark of God and brought it from Ebenezer unto Ashdod.
jub@1Samuel:5:2 @ When the Philistines took the ark of God, they brought it into the house of Dagon and set it by Dagon.
jub@1Samuel:5:3 @ And when those of Ashdod arose early in the morning, behold, Dagon [had] fallen upon his face to the earth before the ark of the LORD. And they took Dagon and set him in his place again.
jub@1Samuel:5:4 @ And when they arose early on the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen upon his face to the ground before the ark of the LORD, and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands [were] cut off upon the threshold; only [the stump of] Dagon was left to him.
jub@1Samuel:5:5 @ Therefore, neither the priests of Dagon nor any that come into Dagon's temple tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod unto this day.
jub@1Samuel:5:6 @ But the hand of the LORD was heavy upon those of Ashdod, and he destroyed them and smote them with hemorrhoids in Ashdod and within all their borders.
jub@1Samuel:5:7 @ And when they saw this, those of Ashdod said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us, for his hand is sore upon us and upon Dagon our god.
jub@1Samuel:5:8 @ They sent, therefore, and gathered all the cardinals of the Philistines unto themselves and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they answered, Let the ark of the God of Israel be removed unto Gath. And they removed the ark of the God of Israel there.
jub@1Samuel:5:9 @ And it came to pass that after they had removed it, the hand of the LORD was against the city with a very great destruction. And he smote the men of that city from the smallest to the greatest, and they broke out with hemorrhoids.
jub@1Samuel:5:10 @ Therefore, they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And when the ark of God came to Ekron, the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have removed the ark of the God of Israel unto us to kill me and my people.
jub@1Samuel:5:11 @ So they sent and gathered together all the cardinals of the Philistines and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to his own place, that it not kill me and my people, for there was a deadly destruction throughout all the city, and the hand of God had become very heavy there.
jub@1Samuel:5:12 @ And those that did not die were smitten with the hemorrhoids, and the cry of the city went up to heaven.:
jub@1Samuel:6:1 @ And the ark of the LORD was in the land of the Philistines seven months.
jub@1Samuel:6:2 @ Then the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, What shall we do with the ark of the LORD? Tell us how we shall return it to his place.
jub@1Samuel:6:3 @ And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of Israel, do not send it empty, but ye shall pay unto him the [expiation of] guilt; then ye shall be healed, and ye shall know why his hand was not removed from you.
jub@1Samuel:6:4 @ Then said they, What shall be the [expiation of] guilt which we shall pay unto him? They answered, Five golden hemorrhoids and five golden rats, [according to] the number of the cardinals of the Philistines, for the same plague that is on you is also on your cardinals.
jub@1Samuel:6:5 @ Therefore, ye shall make images of your hemorrhoids and images of your rats that destroy the land, and ye shall give glory unto the God of Israel; peradventure he will lighten his hand from off you and from off your gods and from off your land.
jub@1Samuel:6:6 @ Why then do ye harden your hearts as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When he had dealt [thus] among them, did they not let the people go, and they departed?
jub@1Samuel:6:7 @ Now, therefore, make a new cart and take two milk cows, on which no yoke has been placed and tie the cows to the cart and bring their calves home from them.
jub@1Samuel:6:8 @ Then ye shall take the ark of the LORD and lay it upon the cart and put the jewels of gold, which ye pay him [for expiation of] guilt, in a coffer by the side thereof, and let it go.
jub@1Samuel:6:9 @ And see if it goes up by the way of his own border to Bethshemesh, [then] he has done us this great evil, but if not, then we shall know that [it is] not his hand [that] smote us; it [was] an accident [that] happened to us.
jub@1Samuel:6:10 @ And the men did so and took two milk cows and tied them to the cart and shut up their calves at home.
jub@1Samuel:6:11 @ Then they laid the ark of the LORD upon the cart and the coffer with the rats of gold and the images of their hemorrhoids.
jub@1Samuel:6:12 @ And the cows went straight down the way of Bethshemesh [and] went along the highway, lowing as they went and turned not aside [to] the right hand or [to] the left, and the cardinals of the Philistines went after them unto the border of Bethshemesh.
jub@1Samuel:6:13 @ And [those of] Bethshemesh [were] reaping their wheat harvest in the valley, and they lifted up their eyes and saw the ark and rejoiced to see [it].
jub@1Samuel:6:14 @ And the cart came into the field of Joshua, a Bethshemite, and stopped there, for there was a great stone there; and they clave the wood of the cart and offered the cows in a burnt offering unto the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:6:15 @ And the Levites took down the ark of the LORD and the coffer that [was] with it, in which [were] the jewels of gold, and put [them] on the great stone, and the men of Bethshemesh offered burnt offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day unto the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:6:16 @ And when the five cardinals of the Philistines had seen [it], they returned to Ekron the same day.
jub@1Samuel:6:17 @ These, therefore are the golden hemorrhoids which the Philistines returned [in expiation] for their guilt unto the LORD, for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Askelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one,
jub@1Samuel:6:18 @ and the golden rats, [according to] the number of all the cities of the Philistines [belonging] to the five cardinals; a ransom for those of the fenced cities and for the country dwellers even unto the great [stone of] Abel, upon which they placed the ark of the LORD in the field of Joshua, the Bethshemite, and [this is remembered] unto this day.
jub@1Samuel:6:19 @ [Then] God smote those of Bethshemesh because they had looked at the ark of the LORD; he smote fifty thousand of the people and seventy [principal] men. And the people lamented because the LORD had smitten the people with such a great slaughter.
jub@1Samuel:6:20 @ And the men of Bethshemesh said, Who is able to stand before this holy LORD God? And to whom shall he go up from us?
jub@1Samuel:6:21 @ And they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kirjathjearim, saying, The Philistines have returned the ark of the LORD; come down, therefore, and carry it up to you.:
jub@1Samuel:7:1 @ And the men of Kirjathjearim came and carried up the ark of the LORD and brought it into the house of Abinadab in the hill and sanctified Eleazar his son to keep the ark of the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:7:2 @ And it came to pass while the ark abode in Kirjathjearim, that the time was long, for it was twenty years, and all the house of Israel lamented after the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:7:3 @ And Samuel spoke unto all the house of Israel, saying, If ye return unto the LORD with all your hearts, [then] put away the strange gods and Ashtaroth from among you and prepare your hearts unto the LORD and serve him only, and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.
jub@1Samuel:7:4 @ Then the sons of Israel did put away the Baalim and Ashtaroth and served the LORD only.
jub@1Samuel:7:5 @ And Samuel said, Gather all Israel in Mizpeh, and I will pray for you unto the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:7:6 @ And they gathered together in Mizpeh and drew water and poured [it] out before the LORD and fasted on that day and said there, We have sinned against the LORD. And Samuel judged the sons of Israel in Mizpeh.
jub@1Samuel:7:7 @ And when the Philistines heard that the sons of Israel were gathered together in Mizpeh, the cardinals of the Philistines went up against Israel. And when the sons of Israel heard [it], they were afraid of the Philistines.
jub@1Samuel:7:8 @ And the sons of Israel said to Samuel, Cease not to cry unto the LORD our God for us that he will save us out of the hand of the Philistines.
jub@1Samuel:7:9 @ And Samuel took a sucking lamb and offered [it for] a burnt offering completely unto the LORD, and Samuel cried unto the LORD for Israel, and the LORD heard him.
jub@1Samuel:7:10 @ And it came to pass as Samuel was offering up the burnt offering that the Philistines drew near to battle against Israel. But the LORD thundered with a great thunder on that day upon the Philistines and crushed them, and they were smitten before Israel.
jub@1Samuel:7:11 @ And the men of Israel went out of Mizpeh and pursued the Philistines and smote them until [they were] below Bethcar.
jub@1Samuel:7:12 @ Then Samuel took a stone and set [it] between Mizpeh and Shen and called the name of it Ebenezer, saying, Thus far the LORD has helped us.
jub@1Samuel:7:13 @ So the Philistines were subdued, and they came no more into the border of Israel, and the hand of the LORD was against the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
jub@1Samuel:7:14 @ And the cities which the Philistines had taken from Israel were restored to Israel from Ekron even unto Gath with their borders, and Israel delivered them out of the hands of the Philistines. And there was peace between Israel and the Amorite.
jub@1Samuel:7:15 @ And Samuel judged Israel all the days of his life.
jub@1Samuel:7:16 @ And he went from year to year in circuit to Bethel and Gilgal and Mizpeh and judged Israel in all those places.
jub@1Samuel:7:17 @ Then he would return to Ramah, for there [was] his house, and there he judged Israel, and there he built an altar unto the LORD.:
jub@1Samuel:8:1 @ And it came to pass when Samuel was old that he made his sons judges over Israel.
jub@1Samuel:8:2 @ Now the name of his firstborn was Joel, and the name of his second, Abiah; [they were] judges in Beersheba.
jub@1Samuel:8:3 @ And his sons did not walk in his ways but turned aside after greed, receiving bribes and perverting [that which is] right.
jub@1Samuel:8:4 @ Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together and came to Samuel in Ramah
jub@1Samuel:8:5 @ and said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons do not walk in thy ways; therefore make us a king to judge us like all the Gentiles.
jub@1Samuel:8:6 @ But the thing displeased Samuel when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:8:7 @ And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee, for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me that I should not reign over them.
jub@1Samuel:8:8 @ According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, with which they have forsaken me and served other gods, so they also do unto thee.
jub@1Samuel:8:9 @ Now, therefore, hearken unto their voice; however [first] protest solemnly against them by declaring unto them the rights of the king that shall reign over them.
jub@1Samuel:8:10 @ And Samuel told all the words of the LORD unto the people that asked him for a king.
jub@1Samuel:8:11 @ And he said, This will be the right of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons and appoint [them] for himself, for his chariots, and [to be] his horsemen, and [some] shall run before his chariot.
jub@1Samuel:8:12 @ And he will appoint captains over thousands and captains over fifties and [will set them] to plough his ground and to reap his harvest and to make his weapons of war and the munitions of his chariots.
jub@1Samuel:8:13 @ And he will take your daughters [to be] confectioneries and [to be] cooks and [to be] bakers.
jub@1Samuel:8:14 @ And he will take your fields and your vineyards and your good oliveyards and give [them] to his servants.
jub@1Samuel:8:15 @ And he will take the tenth of your seed and of your vineyards to give to his officers and to his servants.
jub@1Samuel:8:16 @ And he will take your menservants and your maidservants and your good young men and your asses and do his work with them.
jub@1Samuel:8:17 @ He will also take the tenth of your sheep, and [finally] ye shall be his servants.
jub@1Samuel:8:18 @ And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you, and the LORD will not hear you in that day.
jub@1Samuel:8:19 @ Nevertheless, the people refused to hear the voice of Samuel, and they said, No, but we will have a king over us
jub@1Samuel:8:20 @ that we also may be like all the Gentiles and that our king may govern us and go out before us and fight our battles.
jub@1Samuel:8:21 @ And Samuel heard all the words of the people, and he rehearsed them in the ears of the LORD.
jub@1Samuel:8:22 @ And the LORD said to Samuel, Hearken unto their voice, and place a king over them. Then Samuel said unto the men of Israel, Go each one unto his city.:
jub@1Samuel:9:1 @ Now there was a man of Benjamin, whose name [was] Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, a son of Jemini, a mighty man of power.
jub@1Samuel:9:2 @ And he had a son, whose name [was] Saul, a handsome young man. Among the sons of Israel there was not a nicer person than he; from his shoulders and upward [he was] higher than any of the people.
jub@1Samuel:9:3 @ And the [she] asses of Kish, Saul's father, were lost. And Kish said to Saul, his son, Take now one of the servants with thee, and arise, go seek the asses.
jub@1Samuel:9:4 @ And he passed through Mount Ephraim and passed through the land of Shalisha, but they did not find [them]. Then they passed through the land of Shalim, and [they were] not [there], and he passed through the land of Jemini, but they did not find [them].
jub@1Samuel:9:5 @ [And] when they were come to the land of Zuph, Saul said to his servant that [was] with him, Come, and let us return; lest my father leave [caring] for the asses and take thought for us.
jub@1Samuel:9:6 @ And he said unto him, Behold now, [there is] in this city a man of God, and [he is] an honorable man; all that he says surely comes to pass; now let us go there; peradventure he can show us our way that we should go.
jub@1Samuel:9:7 @ Then Saul replied unto his servant, But, behold, [if] we go, what shall we bring the man? For the bread is spent in our vessels, and we have nothing to present unto the man of God. What do we have?
jub@1Samuel:9:8 @ And the servant answered Saul again and said, Behold, I have here at hand the fourth part of a shekel of silver; this will I give to the man of God to tell us our way.
jub@1Samuel:9:9 @ (Beforetime in Israel when anyone went to enquire of God, he spoke thus, Come, and let us go to the seer, for [he that is] now [called] a Prophet was called a Seer before.)
jub@1Samuel:9:10 @ Then Saul said to his servant, Well said; come, let us go. So they went unto the city where the man of God [was].
jub@1Samuel:9:11 @ [And] as they went up the hill to the city, they found young maidens going out to draw water and said unto them, Is the seer here?
jub@1Samuel:9:12 @ And they answered them and said, He is; behold, [he is] before you; make haste now, for he came today to the city, for [there is] a sacrifice of the people today in the high place.
jub@1Samuel:9:13 @ As soon as you are come into the city, ye shall straightway find him before he goes up to the high place to eat, for the people will not eat until he comes because he must bless the sacrifice, [and] afterwards those that are invited eat. Now therefore go up, for about this time ye shall find him.
jub@1Samuel:9:14 @ And they went up into the city. [And] when they were come into the city, behold, Samuel came out before them to go up to the high place.
jub@1Samuel:9:15 @ Now the LORD had told Samuel in his ear a day before Saul came, saying,
jub@1Samuel:9:16 @ Tomorrow about this time I will send thee a man out of the land of Benjamin, and thou shalt anoint him [to be] prince over my people Israel that he may save my people out of the hand of the Philistines, for I have looked upon my people because their cry is come unto me.
jub@1Samuel:9:17 @ And when Samuel saw Saul, the LORD said unto him, Behold the man whom I spoke to thee of! This same shall reign over my people.
jub@1Samuel:9:18 @ Then Saul drew near to Samuel in the gate and said, Tell me, I pray thee, where the seer's house [is].
jub@1Samuel:9:19 @ And Samuel answered Saul and said, I [am] the seer; go up before me unto the high place; for ye shall eat with me today, and tomorrow I will let thee go and will tell thee all that [is] in thy heart.
jub@1Samuel:9:20 @ And as for thine asses that were lost three days ago, take no care for them, for they are found. And on whom [is] all the desire of Israel? [Is it] not on thee and on all thy father's house?
jub@1Samuel:9:21 @ And Saul answered and said, Peradventure am I not of Jemini, of the smallest of the tribes of Israel? And is my family not the least of all the families of the tribe of Benjamin? Why, therefore, dost thou speak so to me?
jub@1Samuel:9:22 @ And Samuel took Saul and his servant and brought them into the [banquet] chamber and made them sit at the head among those that were invited, which [were] about thirty persons.
jub@1Samuel:9:23 @ And Samuel said unto the cook, Bring the portion which I gave thee, of which I said unto thee, Set it aside.
jub@1Samuel:9:24 @ And the cook took up the shoulder and [that] which [was] upon it and set [it] before Saul. And [Samuel] said, Behold that which was reserved! Set [it] before thee [and] eat because for this time it has been kept for thee, since I said, I have invited the people. So Saul ate with Samuel that day.
jub@1Samuel:9:25 @ And when they were come down from the high place into the city, he spoke with Saul upon the top of the house.
jub@1Samuel:9:26 @ And they arose early about dawn, and Samuel called Saul, who was on the top of the house, saying, Rise up that I may send thee away. And Saul arose, and they went out both of them, he and Samuel, abroad.
jub@1Samuel:9:27 @ [And] as they were going down to the end of the city, Samuel said to Saul, Bid the servant pass on before us (and he passed on), but stand thou still a while that I may declare thee the word of God.:
jub@1Samuel:10:1 @ Then Samuel took a vial of oil and poured [it] upon his head and kissed him and said, [Is it] not because the LORD has anointed thee [to be] captain over his inheritance?
jub@1Samuel:10:2 @ When thou art departed from me today, then thou shalt find two men by Rachel's sepulchre in the border of Benjamin at Zelzah, and they will say unto thee, The asses which thou didst go to seek are found, and thy father has left the care of the asses and sorrows for you, saying, What shall I do for my son?
jub@1Samuel:10:3 @ Then shalt thou go on forward from there, and thou shalt come to the plain of Tabor, and three men going up to God to Bethel shall meet thee, one carrying three kids and another carrying three loaves of bread and another carrying a bottle of wine.
jub@1Samuel:10:4 @ And they will salute thee and give thee two [loaves] of bread; which thou shalt receive of their hands.
jub@1Samuel:10:5 @ After that thou shalt come to the hill of God where the garrison of the Philistines [is], and it shall come to pass when thou art come there to the city, that thou shalt meet a company of prophets coming down from the high place with a psaltery and a tambourine and a pipe and a harp before them; and they shall prophesy.
jub@1Samuel:10:6 @ And the Spirit of the LORD will prosper thee, and thou shalt prophesy with them and shalt be turned into another man.
jub@1Samuel:10:7 @ And let it be when these signs are come unto thee [that] thou do [according] as thou shalt find at hand, for God [is] with thee.
jub@1Samuel:10:8 @ And thou shalt go down before me to Gilgal, and, behold, I will come down unto thee to offer burnt offerings [and] to sacrifice sacrifices of peace offerings. Seven days shalt thou tarry until I come to thee and show thee what thou shalt do.
jub@1Samuel:10:9 @ And it was [so] that when he had turned his shoulder to go from Samuel, God gave him another heart, and all those signs came to pass that day.
jub@1Samuel:10:10 @ And when they came there to the hill, behold, the company of prophets met him, and the Spirit of God prospered him, and he prophesied among them.
jub@1Samuel:10:11 @ And it came to pass when all that knew him beforetime saw that, behold, he prophesied among the prophets, then the people said one to another, What has happened to the son of Kish? [Is] Saul also among the prophets?
jub@1Samuel:10:12 @ And one of the same place answered and said, But who [is] their father? Therefore, it became a proverb, [Is] Saul also among the prophets?
jub@1Samuel:10:13 @ And he ceased prophesying and came to the high place.
jub@1Samuel:10:14 @ And Saul's uncle said unto him and to his servant, Where went ye? And he said, To seek the asses, and when we saw that [they were] nowhere, we came to Samuel.
jub@1Samuel:10:15 @ And Saul's uncle said, Tell me, I pray thee, what Samuel said unto you.
jub@1Samuel:10:16 @ And Saul said unto his uncle, He told us plainly that the asses were found. But of the matter of the kingdom, of which Samuel spoke, he did not tell him.
jub@1Samuel:10:17 @ And Samuel called the people together unto the LORD to Mizpeh
jub@1Samuel:10:18 @ and said unto the sons of Israel, Thus hath the LORD God of Israel said, I brought up Israel out of Egypt and delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians and out of the hand of all kingdoms [and] of those that oppressed you.
jub@1Samuel:10:19 @ But ye have this day rejected your God, who saves you out of all your afflictions and your troubles, and ye have said unto him, [No], but set a king over us. Now, therefore, present yourselves before the LORD by your tribes and by your thousands.
jub@1Samuel:10:20 @ And when Samuel had caused all the tribes of Israel to come near, the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
jub@1Samuel:10:21 @ When he had caused the tribe of Benjamin to come near by their lineages, the family of Matri was taken, and [from it] Saul the son of Kish was taken, and when they sought him, he could not be found.
jub@1Samuel:10:22 @ Therefore, they enquired of the LORD further, if the man should yet come there. And the LORD answered, Behold, he has hid himself among the stuff.
jub@1Samuel:10:23 @ And they ran and took him from there, and when he stood among the people, he was higher than any of the people from his shoulders and upward.
jub@1Samuel:10:24 @ And Samuel said to all the people, See ye him whom the LORD has chosen, that [there is] none like him among all the people? And all the people shouted and said, [Long] live the king.
jub@1Samuel:10:25 @ Then Samuel recited unto the people the rights of the kingdom and wrote [it] in a book and laid [it] up before the LORD. And Samuel sent all the people away, each one to his house.
jub@1Samuel:10:26 @ And Saul also went home to Gibeah, and there went with him [some from] the army, whose hearts God had touched.
jub@1Samuel:10:27 @ But the sons of Belial said, How shall this man save us? And they despised him and brought him no presents. But he pretended not to notice.:
jub@1Samuel:11:1 @ Then Nahash, the Ammonite, came up and encamped against Jabeshgilead. And all the men of Jabesh said unto Nahash, Make a covenant with us, and we will serve thee.
jub@1Samuel:11:2 @ And Nahash, the Ammonite, answered them, On this [condition] will I make [a covenant] with you, that I may thrust out all your right eyes and lay it [for] a reproach upon all Israel.
jub@1Samuel:11:3 @ And the elders of Jabesh said unto him, Give us seven days' respite, that we may send messengers unto all the borders of Israel, and then, if [there is] no one to save us, we will come out to thee.
jub@1Samuel:11:4 @ Then the messengers came to Gibeah of Saul and told the tidings in the ears of the people, and all the people lifted up their voices and wept.
jub@1Samuel:11:5 @ And, behold, Saul came after the oxen out of the field, and Saul said, What [ails] the people that they weep? And they told him the tidings of the men of Jabesh.
jub@1Samuel:11:6 @ And the Spirit of God prospered Saul when he heard those tidings, and his anger was kindled greatly.
jub@1Samuel:11:7 @ And he took a yoke of oxen and hewed them in pieces and sent [them] throughout all the borders of Israel by the hands of messengers, saying, Whoever does not come forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall it be done unto his oxen. And the fear of the LORD fell on the people, and they came out with one consent.
jub@1Samuel:11:8 @ And when he numbered them in Bezek, the sons of Israel were three hundred thousand and the men of Judah thirty thousand.
jub@1Samuel:11:9 @ And they said unto the messengers that came, Thus shall ye say unto the men of Jabeshgilead, Tomorrow, by [the time] the sun is hot, ye shall have salvation. And the messengers came and declared [it] to the men of Jabesh, and they were glad.
jub@1Samuel:11:10 @ Therefore the men of Jabesh said, Tomorrow we will come out unto you, and ye shall do with us all that seems good unto you.
jub@1Samuel:11:11 @ And it was so on the next day that Saul put the people in order in three companies, and they came into the midst of the host in the morning watch and slew the Ammonites until the heat of the day, and it came to pass that those who remained were scattered so that two of them were not left together.
jub@1Samuel:11:12 @ Then the people said unto Samuel, Who [were] those that said, Shall Saul reign over us? Bring the men, that we may put them to death.
jub@1Samuel:11:13 @ And Saul said, There shall not a man be put to death this day, for today the LORD has wrought salvation in Israel.
jub@1Samuel:11:14 @ Then Samuel said to the people, Come, and let us go to Gilgal and renew the kingdom there.
jub@1Samuel:11:15 @ And all the people went to Gilgal, and there they made Saul king before the LORD in Gilgal, and there they sacrificed sacrifices of peace offerings before the LORD, and there Saul and all the men of Israel rejoiced greatly.:
jub@1Samuel:12:1 @ And Samuel said unto all Israel, Behold, I have hearkened unto your voice in all that ye said unto me and have made a king over you.
jub@1Samuel:12:2 @ And now, behold, your king walks before you. I am old and grayheaded, and, behold, my sons [are] with you, and I have walked before you from my childhood unto this day.
jub@1Samuel:12:3 @ Behold, here I [am]; witness against me before the LORD and before his anointed. If I have taken anyone's ox or if I have taken anyone's ass or if I have defrauded anyone or if I have oppressed anyone or if I have received [a] bribe from anyone to blind my eyes, I will restore it you.
jub@1Samuel:12:4 @ And they said, Thou hast not defrauded us nor oppressed us; neither hast thou taken anything of any man's hand.
jub@1Samuel:12:5 @ And he said unto them, The LORD [is] witness against you, and his anointed [is] witness this day that ye have not found anything in my hand. And they answered, [He is] witness.![[pBiblx2]](/img/menu.png)
