rsv@1Samuel:17:47 @ and that all this assembly may know that the LORD saves not with sword and spear; for the battle is the LORD'S and he will give you into our hand."
rsv@1Samuel:18:21 @ Saul thought, "Let me give her to him, that she may be a snare for him, and that the hand of the Philistines may be against him." Therefore Saul said to David a second time, "You shall now be my son-in-law."
rsv@1Samuel:18:25 @ Then Saul said, "Thus shall you say to David, `The king desires no marriage present except a hundred foreskins of the Philistines, that he may be avenged of the king's enemies.'" Now Saul thought to make David fall by the hand of the Philistines.

rsv@1Samuel:20:14 @ If I am still alive, show me the loyal love of the LORD, that I may not die;
rsv@1Samuel:20:16 @ let not the name of Jonathan be cut off from the house of David. And may the LORD take vengeance on David's enemies."
rsv@1Samuel:23:21 @ And Saul said, "May you be blessed by the LORD; for you have had compassion on me.
rsv@1Samuel:24:11 @ See, my father, see the skirt of your robe in my hand; for by the fact that I cut off the skirt of your robe, and did not kill you, you may know and see that there is no wrong or treason in my hands. I have not sinned against you, though you hunt my life to take it.
rsv@1Samuel:24:12 @ May the LORD judge between me and you, may the LORD avenge me upon you; but my hand shall not be against you.
rsv@1Samuel:24:15 @ May the LORD therefore be judge, and give sentence between me and you, and see to it, and plead my cause, and deliver me from your hand."
rsv@1Samuel:24:19 @ For if a man finds his enemy, will he let him go away safe? So may the LORD reward you with good for what you have done to me this day.
rsv@1Samuel:26:19 @ Now therefore let my lord the king hear the words of his servant. If it is the LORD who has stirred you up against me, may he accept an offering; but if it is men, may they be cursed before the LORD, for they have driven me out this day that I should have no share in the heritage of the LORD, saying, `Go, serve other gods.'
rsv@1Samuel:26:24 @ Behold, as your life was precious this day in my sight, so may my life be precious in the sight of the LORD, and may he deliver me out of all tribulation."

rsv@1Samuel:29:4 @ But the commanders of the Philistines were angry with him; and the commanders of the Philistines said to him, "Send the man back, that he may return to the place to which you have assigned him; he shall not go down with us to battle, lest in the battle he become an adversary to us. For how could this fellow reconcile himself to his lord? Would it not be with the heads of the men here?
rsv@1Samuel:29:7 @ So go back now; and go peaceably, that you may not displease the lords of the Philistines."
rsv@1Samuel:29:8 @ And David said to A'chish, "But what have I done? What have you found in your servant from the day I entered your service until now, that I may not go and fight against the enemies of my lord the king?"
rsv@1Samuel:30:22 @ Then all the wicked and base fellows among the men who had gone with David said, "Because they did not go with us, we will not give them any of the spoil which we have recovered, except that each man may lead away his wife and children, and depart."

rsv@2Samuel:7:10 @ And I will appoint a place for my people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be disturbed no more; and violent men shall afflict them no more, as formerly,
rsv@2Samuel:7:29 @ now therefore may it please thee to bless the house of thy servant, that it may continue for ever before thee; for thou, O Lord GOD, hast spoken, and with thy blessing shall the house of thy servant be blessed for ever."
rsv@2Samuel:9:1 @ And David said, "Is there still any one left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan's sake?"

rsv@2Samuel:12:18 @ On the seventh day the child died. And the servants of David feared to tell him that the child was dead; for they said, "Behold, while the child was yet alive, we spoke to him, and he did not listen to us; how then can we say to him the child is dead? He may do himself some harm."
rsv@2Samuel:12:22 @ He said, "While the child was still alive, I fasted and wept; for I said, `Who knows whether the LORD will be gracious to me, that the child may live?'
rsv@2Samuel:13:5 @ Jon'adab said to him, "Lie down on your bed, and pretend to be ill; and when your father comes to see you, say to him, `Let my sister Tamar come and give me bread to eat, and prepare the food in my sight, that I may see it, and eat it from her hand.'"
rsv@2Samuel:13:6 @ So Amnon lay down, and pretended to be ill; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said to the king, "Pray let my sister Tamar come and make a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat from her hand."

rsv@2Samuel:14:7 @ And now the whole family has risen against your handmaid, and they say, `Give up the man who struck his brother, that we may kill him for the life of his brother whom he slew'; and so they would destroy the heir also. Thus they would quench my coal which is left, and leave to my husband neither name nor remnant upon the face of the earth."
rsv@2Samuel:14:15 @ Now I have come to say this to my lord the king because the people have made me afraid; and your handmaid thought, `I will speak to the king; it may be that the king will perform the request of his servant.
