nasb@Hosea:1:1 @The word of the LORD which came to Hosea the son of Beeri, during the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and during the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

nasb@Hosea:1:3 @So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.

nasb@Hosea:1:8 @When she had weaned Lo-ruhamah, she conceived and gave birth to a son.

nasb@Hosea:1:10 @Yet the number of the sons of Israel Will be like the sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or numbered; And in the place Where it is said to them, "You are not My people," It will be said to them, "You are the sons of the living God."

nasb@Hosea:2:1 @And the sons of Judah and the sons of Israel will be gathered together, And they will appoint for themselves one leader, And they will go up from the land, For great will be the day of Jezreel.

nasb@Hosea:2:3 @Or I will strip her naked And expose her as on the day when she was born. I will also make her like a wilderness, Make her like desert land And slay her with thirst.

nasb@Hosea:2:4" @Also, I will have no compassion on her children, Because they are children of harlotry.

nasb@Hosea:2:6" @Therefore, behold, I will hedge up her way with thorns, And I will build a wall against her so that she cannot find her paths.

nasb@Hosea:2:9" @Therefore, I will take back My grain at harvest time And My new wine in its season. I will also take away My wool and My flax Given to cover her nakedness.

nasb@Hosea:2:11" @I will also put an end to all her gaiety, Her feasts, her new moons, her sabbaths And all her festal assemblies.

nasb@Hosea:2:13" @I will punish her for the days of the Baals When she used to offer sacrifices to them And adorn herself with her earrings and jewelry, And follow her lovers, so that she forgot Me," declares the LORD.

nasb@Hosea:2:17" @For I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, So that they will be mentioned by their names no more.

nasb@Hosea:2:18" @In that day I will also make a covenant for them With the beasts of the field, The birds of the sky And the creeping things of the ground. And I will abolish the bow, the sword and war from the land, And will make them lie down in safety.

nasb@Hosea:2:23" @I will sow her for Myself in the land. I will also have compassion on her who had not obtained compassion, And I will say to those who were not My people, 'You are My people!' And they will say, 'You are my God!'"

nasb@Hosea:3:1 @Then the LORD said to me, "Go again, love a woman who is loved by her husband, yet an adulteress, even as the LORD loves the sons of Israel, though they turn to other gods and love raisin cakes."

nasb@Hosea:3:2 @So I bought her for myself for fifteen shekels of silver and a homer and a half of barley.

nasb@Hosea:3:3 @Then I said to her, "You shall stay with me for many days. You shall not play the harlot, nor shall you have a man; so I will also be toward you."

nasb@Hosea:3:4 @For the sons of Israel will remain for many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar and without ephod or household idols.

nasb@Hosea:3:5 @Afterward the sons of Israel will return and seek the LORD their God and David their king; and they will come trembling to the LORD and to His goodness in the last days.

nasb@Hosea:4:1 @Listen to the word of the LORD, O sons of Israel, For the LORD has a case against the inhabitants of the land, Because there is no faithfulness or kindness Or knowledge of God in the land.

nasb@Hosea:4:2 @There is swearing, deception, murder, stealing and adultery. They employ violence, so that bloodshed follows bloodshed.

nasb@Hosea:4:3 @Therefore the land mourns, And everyone who lives in it languishes Along with the beasts of the field and the birds of the sky, And also the fish of the sea disappear.

nasb@Hosea:4:5 @So you will stumble by day, And the prophet also will stumble with you by night; And I will destroy your mother.

nasb@Hosea:4:6 @My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

nasb@Hosea:4:9 @And it will be, like people, like priest; So I will punish them for their ways And repay them for their deeds.

nasb@Hosea:4:14 @I will not punish your daughters when they play the harlot Or your brides when they commit adultery, For the men themselves go apart with harlots And offer sacrifices with temple prostitutes; So the people without understanding are ruined.

nasb@Hosea:4:15 @Though you, Israel, play the harlot, Do not let Judah become guilty; Also do not go to Gilgal, Or go up to Beth-aven And take the oath- "As the LORD lives!"

nasb@Hosea:5:5 @Moreover, the pride of Israel testifies against him, And Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity; Judah also has stumbled with them.

nasb@Hosea:5:8 @Blow the horn in Gibeah, The trumpet in Ramah. Sound an alarm at Beth-aven- " Behind you, Benjamin!"

nasb@Hosea:5:9 @Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of rebuke; Among the tribes of Israel I declare what is sure.

nasb@Hosea:5:3" @So let us know, let us press on to know the LORD. His going forth is as certain as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain, Like the spring rain watering the earth."

nasb@Hosea:5:9 @And as raiders wait for a man, So a band of priests murder on the way to Shechem; Surely they have committed crime.

nasb@Hosea:5:11 @Also, O Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, When I restore the fortunes of My people.

nasb@Hosea:6:9 @Strangers devour his strength, Yet he does not know it; Gray hairs also are sprinkled on him, Yet he does not know it.

nasb@Hosea:6:10 @Though the pride of Israel testifies against him, Yet they have not returned to the LORD their God, Nor have they sought Him, for all this.

nasb@Hosea:6:11 @So Ephraim has become like a silly dove, without sense; They call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.

nasb@Hosea:6:16 @They turn, but not upward, They are like a deceitful bow; Their princes will fall by the sword Because of the insolence of their tongue. This will be their derision in the land of Egypt.

nasb@Hosea:7:6 @For from Israel is even this! A craftsman made it, so it is not God; Surely the calf of Samaria will be broken to pieces.

nasb@Hosea:7:7 @For they sow the wind And they reap the whirlwind. The standing grain has no heads; It yields no grain. Should it yield, strangers would swallow it up.

nasb@Hosea:8:7 @The days of punishment have come, The days of retribution have come; Let Israel know this! The prophet is a fool, The inspired man is demented, Because of the grossness of your iniquity, And because your hostility is so great.

nasb@Hosea:8:10 @I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your forefathers as the earliest fruit on the fig tree in its first season. But they came to Baal-peor and devoted themselves to shame, And they became as detestable as that which they loved.

nasb@Hosea:9:4 @They speak mere words, With worthless oaths they make covenants; And judgment sprouts like poisonous weeds in the furrows of the field.

nasb@Hosea:9:8 @Also the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed; Thorn and thistle will grow on their altars; Then they will say to the mountains, "Cover us!" And to the hills, "Fall on us!"

nasb@Hosea:9:9 @From the days of Gibeah you have sinned, O Israel; There they stand! Will not the battle against the sons of iniquity overtake them in Gibeah?

nasb@Hosea:9:12 @Sow with a view to righteousness, Reap in accordance with kindness; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD Until He comes to rain righteousness on you.

nasb@Hosea:10:1 @When Israel was a youth I loved him, And out of Egypt I called My son.

nasb@Hosea:10:7 @So My people are bent on turning from Me. Though they call them to the One on high, None at all exalts Him.

nasb@Hosea:10:10 @They will walk after the LORD, He will roar like a lion; Indeed He will roar And His sons will come trembling from the west.

nasb@Hosea:10:12 @Ephraim surrounds Me with lies And the house of Israel with deceit; Judah is also unruly against God, Even against the Holy One who is faithful.

nasb@Hosea:11:2 @The LORD also has a dispute with Judah, And will punish Jacob according to his ways; He will repay him according to his deeds.

nasb@Hosea:11:4 @Yes, he wrestled with the angel and prevailed; He wept and sought His favor. He found Him at Bethel And there He spoke with us,

nasb@Hosea:11:10 @I have also spoken to the prophets, And I gave numerous visions, And through the prophets I gave parables.

nasb@Hosea:11:14 @Ephraim has provoked to bitter anger; So his Lord will leave his bloodguilt on him And bring back his reproach to him.

nasb@Hosea:12:3 @Therefore they will be like the morning cloud And like dew which soon disappears, Like chaff which is blown away from the threshing floor And like smoke from a chimney.

nasb@Hosea:12:7 @So I will be like a lion to them; Like a leopard I will lie in wait by the wayside.

nasb@Hosea:12:8 @I will encounter them like a bear robbed of her cubs, And I will tear open their chests; There I will also devour them like a lioness, As a wild beast would tear them.

nasb@Hosea:12:13 @The pains of childbirth come upon him; He is not a wise son, For it is not the time that he should delay at the opening of the womb.

nasb@Hosea:12:14 @Shall I ransom them from the power of Sheol? Shall I redeem them from death? O Death, where are your thorns? O Sheol, where is your sting? Compassion will be hidden from My sight.

nasb@Hosea:13:5 @I will be like the dew to Israel; He will blossom like the lily, And he will take root like the cedars of Lebanon.

nasb@Hosea:13:7 @Those who live in his shadow Will again raise grain, And they will blossom like the vine. His renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.

nasb@Hosea:13:9 @Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; Whoever is discerning, let him know them. For the ways of the LORD are right, And the righteous will walk in them, But transgressors will stumble in them.

nasb@Joel:1:1 @The word of the LORD that came to Joel, the son of Pethuel-

nasb@Joel:1:3 @Tell your sons about it, And let your sons tell their sons, And their sons the next generation.

nasb@Joel:1:12 @The vine dries up And the fig tree fails; The pomegranate, the palm also, and the apple tree, All the trees of the field dry up. Indeed, rejoicing dries up From the sons of men.

nasb@Joel:1:14 @Consecrate a fast, Proclaim a solemn assembly; Gather the elders And all the inhabitants of the land To the house of the LORD your God, And cry out to the LORD.

nasb@Joel:1:17 @The seeds shrivel under their clods; The storehouses are desolate, The barns are torn down, For the grain is dried up.

nasb@Joel:2:1 @Blow a trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm on My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, For the day of the LORD is coming; Surely it is near,

nasb@Joel:2:2 @A day of darkness and gloom, A day of clouds and thick darkness. As the dawn is spread over the mountains, So there is a great and mighty people; There has never been anything like it, Nor will there be again after it To the years of many generations.

nasb@Joel:2:3 @A fire consumes before them And behind them a flame burns. The land is like the garden of Eden before them But a desolate wilderness behind them, And nothing at all escapes them.

nasb@Joel:2:4 @Their appearance is like the appearance of horses; And like war horses, so they run.

nasb@Joel:2:7 @They run like mighty men, They climb the wall like soldiers; And they each march in line, Nor do they deviate from their paths.

nasb@Joel:2:11 @The LORD utters His voice before His army; Surely His camp is very great, For strong is he who carries out His word. The day of the LORD is indeed great and very awesome, And who can endure it?

nasb@Joel:2:15 @Blow a trumpet in Zion, Consecrate a fast, proclaim a solemn assembly,

nasb@Joel:2:20" @But I will remove the northern army far from you, And I will drive it into a parched and desolate land, And its vanguard into the eastern sea, And its rear guard into the western sea. And its stench will arise and its foul smell will come up, For it has done great things."

nasb@Joel:2:23 @So rejoice, O sons of Zion, And be glad in the LORD your God; For He has given you the early rain for your vindication. And He has poured down for you the rain, The early and latter rain as before.

nasb@Joel:2:28" @ It will come about after this That I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind; And your sons and daughters will prophesy, Your old men will dream dreams, Your young men will see visions.

nasb@Joel:2:31" @The sun will be turned into darkness And the moon into blood Before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes.

nasb@Joel:3:3" @They have also cast lots for My people, Traded a boy for a harlot And sold a girl for wine that they may drink.

nasb@Joel:3:6 @and sold the sons of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks in order to remove them far from their territory,

nasb@Joel:3:7 @behold, I am going to arouse them from the place where you have sold them, and return your recompense on your head.

nasb@Joel:3:8" @Also I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a distant nation," for the LORD has spoken.

nasb@Joel:3:9 @Proclaim this among the nations- Prepare a war; rouse the mighty men! Let all the soldiers draw near, let them come up!

nasb@Joel:3:16 @The LORD roars from Zion And utters His voice from Jerusalem, And the heavens and the earth tremble. But the LORD is a refuge for His people And a stronghold to the sons of Israel.

nasb@Joel:3:17 @Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain. So Jerusalem will be holy, And strangers will pass through it no more.

nasb@Joel:3:19 @Egypt will become a waste, And Edom will become a desolate wilderness, Because of the violence done to the sons of Judah, In whose land they have shed innocent blood.

nasb@Amos:1:1 @The words of Amos, who was among the sheepherders from Tekoa, which he envisioned in visions concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.

nasb@Amos:1:4" @So I will send fire upon the house of Hazael And it will consume the citadels of Ben-hadad.

nasb@Amos:1:5" @I will also break the gate bar of Damascus, And cut off the inhabitant from the valley of Aven, And him who holds the scepter, from Beth-eden; So the people of Aram will go exiled to Kir," Says the LORD.

nasb@Amos:1:7" @So I will send fire upon the wall of Gaza And it will consume her citadels.

nasb@Amos:1:8" @I will also cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, And him who holds the scepter, from Ashkelon; I will even unleash My power upon Ekron, And the remnant of the Philistines will perish," Says the Lord GOD.

nasb@Amos:1:10" @So I will send fire upon the wall of Tyre And it will consume her citadels."

nasb@Amos:1:11 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Edom and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because he pursued his brother with the sword, While he stifled his compassion; His anger also tore continually, And he maintained his fury forever.

nasb@Amos:1:12" @So I will send fire upon Teman And it will consume the citadels of Bozrah."

nasb@Amos:1:13 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead In order to enlarge their borders.

nasb@Amos:1:14" @So I will kindle a fire on the wall of Rabbah And it will consume her citadels Amid war cries on the day of battle, And a storm on the day of tempest.

nasb@Amos:2:2" @So I will send fire upon Moab And it will consume the citadels of Kerioth; And Moab will die amid tumult, With war cries and the sound of a trumpet.

nasb@Amos:2:3" @I will also cut off the judge from her midst And slay all her princes with him," says the LORD.

nasb@Amos:2:4 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Judah and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they rejected the law of the LORD And have not kept His statutes; Their lies also have led them astray, Those after which their fathers walked.

nasb@Amos:2:5" @So I will send fire upon Judah And it will consume the citadels of Jerusalem."

nasb@Amos:2:7" @These who pant after the very dust of the earth on the head of the helpless Also turn aside the way of the humble; And a man and his father resort to the same girl In order to profane My holy name.

nasb@Amos:2:11" @Then I raised up some of your sons to be prophets And some of your young men to be Nazirites. Is this not so, O sons of Israel?" declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:2:3 @Hear this word which the LORD has spoken against you, sons of Israel, against the entire family which He brought up from the land of Egypt-

nasb@Amos:2:4 @Does a lion roar in the forest when he has no prey? Does a young lion growl from his den unless he has captured something?

nasb@Amos:2:12 @Thus says the LORD, "Just as the shepherd snatches from the lion's mouth a couple of legs or a piece of an ear, So will the sons of Israel dwelling in Samaria be snatched away-- With the corner of a bed and the cover of a couch!

nasb@Amos:2:14" @For on the day that I punish Israel's transgressions, I will also punish the altars of Bethel; The horns of the altar will be cut off And they will fall to the ground.

nasb@Amos:2:15" @I will also smite the winter house together with the summer house; The houses of ivory will also perish And the great houses will come to an end," Declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:3:5" @Offer a thank offering also from that which is leavened, And proclaim freewill offerings, make them known. For so you love to do, you sons of Israel," Declares the Lord GOD.

nasb@Amos:3:6" @But I gave you also cleanness of teeth in all your cities And lack of bread in all your places, Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:3:8" @So two or three cities would stagger to another city to drink water, But would not be satisfied; Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:3:11" @I overthrew you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, And you were like a firebrand snatched from a blaze; Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:4:5" @But do not resort to Bethel And do not come to Gilgal, Nor cross over to Beersheba; For Gilgal will certainly go into captivity And Bethel will come to trouble.

nasb@Amos:4:8 @He who made the Pleiades and Orion And changes deep darkness into morning, Who also darkens day into night, Who calls for the waters of the sea And pours them out on the surface of the earth, The LORD is His name.

nasb@Amos:4:9 @It is He who flashes forth with destruction upon the strong, So that destruction comes upon the fortress.

nasb@Amos:4:13 @Therefore at such a time the prudent person keeps silent, for it is an evil time.

nasb@Amos:4:16 @Therefore thus says the LORD God of hosts, the Lord, "There is wailing in all the plazas, And in all the streets they say, 'Alas! Alas!' They also call the farmer to mourning And professional mourners to lamentation.

nasb@Amos:4:21" @I hate, I reject your festivals, Nor do I delight in your solemn assemblies.

nasb@Amos:4:23" @Take away from Me the noise of your songs; I will not even listen to the sound of your harps.

nasb@Amos:4:26" @ You also carried along Sikkuth your king and Kiyyun, your images, the star of your gods which you made for yourselves.

nasb@Amos:5:5 @Who improvise to the sound of the harp, And like David have composed songs for themselves,

nasb@Amos:5:12 @Do horses run on rocks? Or does one plow them with oxen? Yet you have turned justice into poison And the fruit of righteousness into wormwood,

nasb@Amos:6:9" @The high places of Isaac will be desolated And the sanctuaries of Israel laid waste. Then I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword."

nasb@Amos:6:14 @Then Amos replied to Amaziah, "I am not a prophet, nor am I the son of a prophet; for I am a herdsman and a grower of sycamore figs.

nasb@Amos:6:17" @Therefore, thus says the LORD, 'Your wife will become a harlot in the city, your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword, your land will be parceled up by a measuring line and you yourself will die upon unclean soil. Moreover, Israel will certainly go from its land into exile.'"

nasb@Amos:7:3" @The songs of the palace will turn to wailing in that day," declares the Lord GOD. "Many will be the corpses; in every place they will cast them forth in silence."

nasb@Amos:7:5 @saying, "When will the new moon be over, So that we may sell grain, And the sabbath, that we may open the wheat market, To make the bushel smaller and the shekel bigger, And to cheat with dishonest scales,

nasb@Amos:7:6 @So as to buy the helpless for money And the needy for a pair of sandals, And that we may sell the refuse of the wheat?"

nasb@Amos:7:10" @Then I will turn your festivals into mourning And all your songs into lamentation; And I will bring sackcloth on everyone's loins And baldness on every head. And I will make it like a time of mourning for an only son, And the end of it will be like a bitter day.

nasb@Amos:7:9 @I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and He said, "Smite the capitals so that the thresholds will shake, And break them on the heads of them all! Then I will slay the rest of them with the sword; They will not have a fugitive who will flee, Or a refugee who will escape.

nasb@Amos:7:5 @The Lord GOD of hosts, The One who touches the land so that it melts, And all those who dwell in it mourn, And all of it rises up like the Nile And subsides like the Nile of Egypt;

nasb@Amos:7:7" @Are you not as the sons of Ethiopia to Me, O sons of Israel?" declares the LORD. "Have I not brought up Israel from the land of Egypt, And the Philistines from Caphtor and the Arameans from Kir?

nasb@Amos:7:11" @In that day I will raise up the fallen booth of David, And wall up its breaches; I will also raise up its ruins And rebuild it as in the days of old;

nasb@Amos:7:13" @Behold, days are coming," declares the LORD, "When the plowman will overtake the reaper And the treader of grapes him who sows seed; When the mountains will drip sweet wine And all the hills will be dissolved.

nasb@Amos:7:14" @Also I will restore the captivity of My people Israel, And they will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them; They will also plant vineyards and drink their wine, And make gardens and eat their fruit.

nasb@Amos:7:15" @I will also plant them on their land, And they will not again be rooted out from their land Which I have given them," Says the LORD your God.

nasb@Obadiah:0:5" @If thieves came to you, If robbers by night-- O how you will be ruined!-- Would they not steal only until they had enough? If grape gatherers came to you, Would they not leave some gleanings?

nasb@Obadiah:0:9" @Then your mighty men will be dismayed, O Teman, So that everyone may be cut off from the mountain of Esau by slaughter.

nasb@Obadiah:0:12" @ Do not gloat over your brother's day, The day of his misfortune. And do not rejoice over the sons of Judah In the day of their destruction; Yes, do not boast In the day of their distress.

nasb@Obadiah:0:14" @Do not stand at the fork of the road To cut down their fugitives; And do not imprison their survivors In the day of their distress.

nasb@Obadiah:0:18" @Then the house of Jacob will be a fire And the house of Joseph a flame; But the house of Esau will be as stubble. And they will set them on fire and consume them, So that there will be no survivor of the house of Esau," For the LORD has spoken.

nasb@Obadiah:0:19 @Then those of the Negev will possess the mountain of Esau, And those of the Shephelah the Philistine plain; Also, possess the territory of Ephraim and the territory of Samaria, And Benjamin will possess Gilead.

nasb@Obadiah:0:20 @And the exiles of this host of the sons of Israel, Who are among the Canaanites as far as Zarephath, And the exiles of Jerusalem who are in Sepharad Will possess the cities of the Negev.

nasb@Jonah:0:1 @The word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai saying,

nasb@Jonah:0:3 @But Jonah rose up to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. So he went down to Joppa, found a ship which was going to Tarshish, paid the fare and went down into it to go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the LORD.

nasb@Jonah:0:4 @The LORD hurled a great wind on the sea and there was a great storm on the sea so that the ship was about to break up.

nasb@Jonah:0:5 @Then the sailors became afraid and every man cried to his god, and they threw the cargo which was in the ship into the sea to lighten it for them. But Jonah had gone below into the hold of the ship, lain down and fallen sound asleep.

nasb@Jonah:0:6 @So the captain approached him and said, "How is it that you are sleeping? Get up, call on your god. Perhaps your god will be concerned about us so that we will not perish."

nasb@Jonah:0:7 @Each man said to his mate, "Come, let us cast lots so we may learn on whose account this calamity has struck us." So they cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah.

nasb@Jonah:0:11 @So they said to him, "What should we do to you that the sea may become calm for us?"--for the sea was becoming increasingly stormy.

nasb@Jonah:0:15 @So they picked up Jonah, threw him into the sea, and the sea stopped its raging.

nasb@Jonah:1:4" @So I said, 'I have been expelled from Your sight. Nevertheless I will look again toward Your holy temple.'

nasb@Jonah:1:3 @So Jonah arose and went to Nineveh according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceedingly great city, a three days' walk.

nasb@Jonah:1:9" @ Who knows, God may turn and relent and withdraw His burning anger so that we will not perish."

nasb@Jonah:2:4 @The LORD said, "Do you have good reason to be angry?"

nasb@Jonah:2:6 @So the LORD God appointed a plant and it grew up over Jonah to be a shade over his head to deliver him from his discomfort. And Jonah was extremely happy about the plant.

nasb@Jonah:2:8 @When the sun came up God appointed a scorching east wind, and the sun beat down on Jonah's head so that he became faint and begged with all his soul to die, saying, " Death is better to me than life."

nasb@Jonah:2:9 @Then God said to Jonah, "Do you have good reason to be angry about the plant?" And he said, "I have good reason to be angry, even to death."

nasb@Jonah:2:11" @Should I not have compassion on Nineveh, the great city in which there are more than 120,000 persons who do not know the difference between their right and left hand, as well as many animalsNULL"

nasb@Micah:1:7 @All of her idols will be smashed, All of her earnings will be burned with fire And all of her images I will make desolate, For she collected them from a harlot's earnings, And to the earnings of a harlot they will return.

nasb@Micah:2:6 @' Do not speak out,' so they speak out. But if they do not speak out concerning these things, Reproaches will not be turned back.

nasb@Micah:2:13" @The breaker goes up before them; They break out, pass through the gate and go out by it. So their king goes on before them, And the LORD at their head."

nasb@Micah:2:5 @Thus says the LORD concerning the prophets who lead my people astray; When they have something to bite with their teeth, They cry, "Peace," But against him who puts nothing in their mouths They declare holy war.

nasb@Micah:3:3 @Therefore He will give them up until the time When she who is in labor has borne a child. Then the remainder of His brethren Will return to the sons of Israel.

nasb@Micah:3:12" @I will cut off sorceries from your hand, And you will have fortune-tellers no more.

nasb@Micah:3:13" @ I will cut off your carved images And your sacred pillars from among you, So that you will no longer bow down To the work of your hands.

nasb@Micah:3:4" @Indeed, I brought you up from the land of Egypt And ransomed you from the house of slavery, And I sent before you Moses, Aaron and Miriam.

nasb@Zechariah:1:2 @So I said, "Where are you going?" And he said to me, "To measure Jerusalem, to see how wide it is and how long it is."

nasb@Zechariah:1:9" @For behold, I will wave My hand over them so that they will be plunder for their slaves. Then you will know that the LORD of hosts has sent Me.
