rsv@Job:1:2 @ There were born to him seven sons and three daughters.

rsv@Job:1:4 @ His sons used to go and hold a feast in the house of each on his day; and they would send and invite their three sisters to eat and drink with them.

rsv@Job:1:5 @ And when the days of the feast had run their course, Job would send and sanctify them, and he would rise early in the morning and offer burnt offerings according to the number of them all; for Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts." Thus Job did continually.

rsv@Job:1:6 @ Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them.

rsv@Job:1:7 @ The LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."

rsv@Job:1:8 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil?"

rsv@Job:1:11 @ But put forth thy hand now, and touch all that he has, and he will curse thee to thy face."

rsv@Job:1:12 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, all that he has is in your power; only upon himself do not put forth your hand." So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD.

rsv@Job:1:14 @ and there came a messenger to Job, and said, "The oxen were plowing and the asses feeding beside them;

rsv@Job:1:15 @ and the Sabe'ans fell upon them and took them, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."

rsv@Job:1:16 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "The fire of God fell from heaven and burned up the sheep and the servants, and consumed them; and I alone have escaped to tell you."

rsv@Job:1:17 @ While he was yet speaking, there came another, and said, "The Chalde'ans formed three companies, and made a raid upon the camels and took them, and slew the servants with the edge of the sword; and I alone have escaped to tell you."

rsv@Job:1:19 @ and behold, a great wind came across the wilderness, and struck the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young people, and they are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you."

rsv@Job:2:1 @ Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan also came among them to present himself before the LORD.

rsv@Job:2:2 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Whence have you come?" Satan answered the LORD, "From going to and fro on the earth, and from walking up and down on it."

rsv@Job:2:3 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Have you considered my servant Job, that there is none like him on the earth, a blameless and upright man, who fears God and turns away from evil? He still holds fast his integrity, although you moved me against him, to destroy him without cause."

rsv@Job:2:5 @ But put forth thy hand now, and touch his bone and his flesh, and he will curse thee to thy face."

rsv@Job:2:6 @ And the LORD said to Satan, "Behold, he is in your power; only spare his life."

rsv@Job:2:7 @ So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD, and afflicted Job with loathsome sores from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head.

rsv@Job:2:8 @ And he took a potsherd with which to scrape himself, and sat among the ashes.

rsv@Job:2:9 @ Then his wife said to him, "Do you still hold fast your integrity? Curse God, and die."

rsv@Job:2:10 @ But he said to her, "You speak as one of the foolish women would speak. Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil?" In all this Job did not sin with his lips.

rsv@Job:2:11 @ Now when Job's three friends heard of all this evil that had come upon him, they came each from his own place, Eli'phaz the Te'manite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Na'amathite. They made an appointment together to come to condole with him and comfort him.

rsv@Job:2:12 @ And when they saw him from afar, they did not recognize him; and they raised their voices and wept; and they rent their robes and sprinkled dust upon their heads toward heaven.

rsv@Job:2:13 @ And they sat with him on the ground seven days and seven nights, and no one spoke a word to him, for they saw that his suffering was very great.

rsv@Job:3:6 @ That night--let thick darkness seize it! let it not rejoice among the days of the year, let it not come into the number of the months.

rsv@Job:3:8 @ Let those curse it who curse the day, who are skilled to rouse up Levi'athan.

rsv@Job:3:18 @ There the prisoners are at ease together; they hear not the voice of the taskmaster.

rsv@Job:3:20 @ "Why is light given to him that is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul,

rsv@Job:3:23 @ Why is light given to a man whose way is hid, whom God has hedged in?

rsv@Job:4:5 @ But now it has come to you, and you are impatient; it touches you, and you are dismayed.

rsv@Job:4:12 @ "Now a word was brought to me stealthily, my ear received the whisper of it.

rsv@Job:4:15 @ A spirit glided past my face; the hair of my flesh stood up.

rsv@Job:4:16 @ It stood still, but I could not discern its appearance. A form was before my eyes; there was silence, then I heard a voice:

rsv@Job:5:1 @ "Call now; is there any one who will answer you? To which of the holy ones will you turn?

rsv@Job:5:4 @ His sons are far from safety, they are crushed in the gate, and there is no one to deliver them.

rsv@Job:5:7 @ but man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward.

rsv@Job:5:8 @ "As for me, I would seek God, and to God would I commit my cause;

rsv@Job:5:11 @ he sets on high those who are lowly, and those who mourn are lifted to safety.

rsv@Job:5:13 @ He takes the wise in their own craftiness; and the schemes of the wily are brought to a quick end.

rsv@Job:5:19 @ He will deliver you from six troubles; in seven there shall no evil touch you.

rsv@Job:5:21 @ You shall be hid from the scourge of the tongue, and shall not fear destruction when it comes.

rsv@Job:5:23 @ For you shall be in league with the stones of the field, and the beasts of the field shall be at peace with you.

rsv@Job:5:26 @ You shall come to your grave in ripe old age, as a shock of grain comes up to the threshing floor in its season.

rsv@Job:6:7 @ My appetite refuses to touch them; they are as food that is loathsome to me.

rsv@Job:6:9 @ that it would please God to crush me, that he would let loose his hand and cut me off!

rsv@Job:6:12 @ Is my strength the strength of stones, or is my flesh bronze?

rsv@Job:6:15 @ My brethren are treacherous as a torrent-bed, as freshets that pass away,

rsv@Job:6:18 @ The caravans turn aside from their course; they go up into the waste, and perish.

rsv@Job:6:21 @ Such you have now become to me; you see my calamity, and are afraid.

rsv@Job:6:28 @ "But now, be pleased to look at me; for I will not lie to your face.

rsv@Job:6:30 @ Is there any wrong on my tongue? Cannot my taste discern calamity?

rsv@Job:7:3 @ so I am allotted months of emptiness, and nights of misery are apportioned to me.

rsv@Job:7:4 @ When I lie down I say, `en I lie down I say, "When shall I arise?' But the night is long, and I am full of tossing till the dawn.

rsv@Job:7:6 @ My days are swifter than a weaver's shuttle, and come to their end without hope.

rsv@Job:7:9 @ As the cloud fades and vanishes, so he who goes down to Sheol does not come up;

rsv@Job:7:10 @ he returns no more to his house, nor does his place know him any more.

rsv@Job:7:20 @ If I sin, what do I do to thee, thou watcher of men? Why hast thou made me thy mark? Why have I become a burden to thee?

rsv@Job:8:4 @ If your children have sinned against him, he has delivered them into the power of their transgression.

rsv@Job:8:5 @ If you will seek God and make supplication to the Almighty,

rsv@Job:8:17 @ His roots twine about the stoneheap; he lives among the rocks.

rsv@Job:9:3 @ If one wished to contend with him, one could not answer him once in a thousand times.

rsv@Job:9:12 @ Behold, he snatches away; who can hinder him? who will say to him, `u'?

rsv@Job:9:15 @ Though I am innocent, I cannot answer him; I must appeal for mercy to my accuser.

rsv@Job:9:16 @ If I summoned him and he answered me, I would not believe that he was listening to my voice.

rsv@Job:9:24 @ The earth is given into the hand of the wicked; he covers the faces of its judges-- if it is not he, who then is it?

rsv@Job:9:31 @ yet thou wilt plunge me into a pit, and my own clothes will abhor me.

rsv@Job:9:32 @ For he is not a man, as I am, that I might answer him, that we should come to trial together.

rsv@Job:10:1 @ "I loathe my life; I will give free utterance to my complaint; I will speak in the bitterness of my soul.

rsv@Job:10:2 @ I will say to God, Do not condemn me; let me know why thou dost contend against me.

rsv@Job:10:3 @ Does it seem good to thee to oppress, to despise the work of thy hands and favor the designs of the wicked?

rsv@Job:10:7 @ although thou knowest that I am not guilty, and there is none to deliver out of thy hand?

rsv@Job:10:9 @ Remember that thou hast made me of clay; and wilt thou turn me to dust again?

rsv@Job:10:11 @ Thou didst clothe me with skin and flesh, and knit me together with bones and sinews.

rsv@Job:10:15 @ If I am wicked, woe to me! If I am righteous, I cannot lift up my head, for I am filled with disgrace and look upon my affliction.

rsv@Job:10:17 @ thou dost renew thy witnesses against me, and increase thy vexation toward me; thou dost bring fresh hosts against me.

rsv@Job:10:21 @ before I go whence I shall not return, to the land of gloom and deep darkness,

rsv@Job:11:5 @ But oh, that God would speak, and open his lips to you,

rsv@Job:11:10 @ If he passes through, and imprisons, and calls to judgment, who can hinder him?

rsv@Job:11:13 @ "If you set your heart aright, you will stretch out your hands toward him.

rsv@Job:11:20 @ But the eyes of the wicked will fail; all way of escape will be lost to them, and their hope is to breathe their last."

rsv@Job:12:3 @ But I have understanding as well as you; I am not inferior to you. Who does not know such things as these?

rsv@Job:12:4 @ I am a laughingstock to my friends; I, who called upon God and he answered me, a just and blameless man, am a laughingstock.

rsv@Job:12:8 @ or the plants of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you.

rsv@Job:12:22 @ He uncovers the deeps out of darkness, and brings deep darkness to light.

rsv@Job:13:1 @ "Lo, my eye has seen all this, my ear has heard and understood it.

rsv@Job:13:2 @ What you know, I also know; I am not inferior to you.

rsv@Job:13:3 @ But I would speak to the Almighty, and I desire to argue my case with God.

rsv@Job:13:6 @ Hear now my reasoning, and listen to the pleadings of my lips.

rsv@Job:13:8 @ Will you show partiality toward him, will you plead the case for God?

rsv@Job:13:15 @ Behold, he will slay me; I have no hope; yet I will defend my ways to his face.

rsv@Job:13:17 @ Listen carefully to my words, and let my declaration be in your ears.

rsv@Job:13:20 @ Only grant two things to me, then I will not hide myself from thy face:

rsv@Job:13:22 @ Then call, and I will answer; or let me speak, and do thou reply to me.

rsv@Job:13:27 @ Thou puttest my feet in the stocks, and watchest all my paths; thou settest a bound to the soles of my feet.

rsv@Job:14:3 @ And dost thou open thy eyes upon such a one and bring him into judgment with thee?

rsv@Job:14:19 @ the waters wear away the stones; the torrents wash away the soil of the earth; so thou destroyest the hope of man.

rsv@Job:14:21 @ His sons come to honor, and he does not know it; they are brought low, and he perceives it not.

rsv@Job:15:5 @ For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the tongue of the crafty.

rsv@Job:15:8 @ Have you listened in the council of God? And do you limit wisdom to yourself+?

rsv@Job:15:9 @ What do you know that we do not know? What do you understand that is not clear to us?

rsv@Job:15:11 @ Are the consolations of God too small for you, or the word that deals gently with you?

rsv@Job:15:18 @ (what wise men have told, and their fathers have not hidden,

rsv@Job:15:19 @ to whom alone the land was given, and no stranger passed among them).

rsv@Job:15:25 @ Because he has stretched forth his hand against God, and bids defiance to the Almighty,

rsv@Job:15:28 @ and has lived in desolate cities, in houses which no man should inhabit, which were destined to become heaps of ruins;

rsv@Job:16:4 @ I also could speak as you do, if you were in my place; I could join words together against you, and shake my head at you.

rsv@Job:16:8 @ And he has shriveled me up, which is a witness against me; and my leanness has risen up against me, it testifies to my face.

rsv@Job:16:9 @ He has torn me in his wrath, and hated me; he has gnashed his teeth at me; my adversary sharpens his eyes against me.

rsv@Job:16:10 @ Men have gaped at me with their mouth, they have struck me insolently upon the cheek, they mass themselves together against me.

rsv@Job:16:11 @ God gives me up to the ungodly, and casts me into the hands of the wicked.

rsv@Job:16:12 @ I was at ease, and he broke me asunder; he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces; he set me up as his target,

rsv@Job:16:20 @ My friends scorn me; my eye pours out tears to God,

rsv@Job:17:4 @ Since thou hast closed their minds to understanding, therefore thou wilt not let them triumph.

rsv@Job:17:5 @ He who informs against his friends to get a share of their property, the eyes of his children will fail.

rsv@Job:18:8 @ For he is cast into a net by his own feet, and he walks on a pitfall.

rsv@Job:18:14 @ He is torn from the tent in which he trusted, and is brought to the king of terrors.

rsv@Job:18:15 @ In his tent dwells that which is none of his; brimstone is scattered upon his habitation.

rsv@Job:18:18 @ He is thrust from light into darkness, and driven out of the world.

rsv@Job:18:19 @ He has no offspring or descendant among his people, and no survivor where he used to live.

rsv@Job:19:2 @ "How long will you torment me, and break me in pieces with words?

rsv@Job:19:3 @ These ten times you have cast reproach upon me; are you not ashamed to wrong me?

rsv@Job:19:12 @ His troops come on together; they have cast up siegeworks against me, and encamp round about my tent.

rsv@Job:19:16 @ I call to my servant, but he gives me no answer; I must beseech him with my mouth.

rsv@Job:19:17 @ I am repulsive to my wife, loathsome to the sons of my own mother.

rsv@Job:20:13 @ though he is loath to let it go, and holds it in his mouth,

rsv@Job:20:14 @ yet his food is turned in his stomach; it is the gall of asps within him.

rsv@Job:20:16 @ He will suck the poison of asps; the tongue of a viper will kill him.

rsv@Job:20:18 @ He will give back the fruit of his toil, and will not swallow it down; from the profit of his trading he will get no enjoyment.

rsv@Job:20:23 @ To fill his belly to the full God will send his fierce anger into him, and rain it upon him as his food.

rsv@Job:22:5 @ Is not your wickedness great? There is no end to your iniquities.

rsv@Job:22:7 @ You have given no water to the weary to drink, and you have withheld bread from the hungry.

rsv@Job:22:15 @ Will you keep to the old way which wicked men have trod?

rsv@Job:22:17 @ They said to God, `ey said to God, "Depart from us,' and `d "What can the Almighty do to us?'

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:6 @ a time to seek, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:7 @ a time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:8 @ a time to love, and a time to hate; a time for war, and a time for peace.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:9 @ What gain has the worker from his toil?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:10 @ I have seen the business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:11 @ He has made everything beautiful in its time; also he has put eternity into man's mind, yet so that he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:12 @ I know that there is nothing better for them than to be happy and enjoy themselves as long as they live;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:13 @ also that it is God's gift to man that every one should eat and drink and take pleasure in all his toil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:14 @ I know that whatever God does endures for ever; nothing can be added to it, nor anything taken from it; God has made it so, in order that men should fear before him.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:15 @ That which is, already has been; that which is to be, already has been; and God seeks what has been driven away.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:18 @ I said in my heart with regard to the sons of men that God is testing them to show them that they are but beasts.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:20 @ All go to one place; all are from the dust, and all turn to dust again.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:21 @ Who knows whether the spirit of man goes upward and the spirit of the beast goes down to the earth?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:3:22 @ So I saw that there is nothing better than that a man should enjoy his work, for that is his lot; who can bring him to see what will be after him?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:1 @ Again I saw all the oppressions that are practiced under the sun. And behold, the tears of the oppressed, and they had no one to comfort them! On the side of their oppressors there was power, and there was no one to comfort them.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:4 @ Then I saw that all toil and all skill in work come from a man's envy of his neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:6 @ Better is a handful of quietness than two hands full of toil and a striving after wind.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:8 @ a person who has no one, either son or brother, yet there is no end to all his toil, and his eyes are never satisfied with riches, so that he never asks, "For whom am I toiling and depriving myself of pleasure?" This also is vanity and an unhappy business.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:9 @ Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:10 @ For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:11 @ Again, if two lie together, they are warm; but how can one be warm alone?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:14 @ even though he had gone from prison to the throne or in his own kingdom had been born poor.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:4:15 @ I saw all the living who move about under the sun, as well as that youth, who was to stand in his place;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:1 @ Guard your steps when you go to the house of God; to draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools; for they do not know that they are doing evil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:2 @ Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven, and you upon earth; therefore let your words be few.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:4 @ When you vow a vow to God, do not delay paying it; for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you vow.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:6 @ Let not your mouth lead you into sin, and do not say before the messenger that it was a mistake; why should God be angry at your voice, and destroy the work of your hands?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:9 @ But in all, a king is an advantage to a land with cultivated fields.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:11 @ When goods increase, they increase who eat them; and what gain has their owner but to see them with his eyes?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:13 @ There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun: riches were kept by their owner to his hurt,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:15 @ As he came from his mother's womb he shall go again, naked as he came, and shall take nothing for his toil, which he may carry away in his hand.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:16 @ This also is a grievous evil: just as he came, so shall he go; and what gain has he that he toiled for the wind,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:18 @ Behold, what I have seen to be good and to be fitting is to eat and drink and find enjoyment in all the toil with which one toils under the sun the few days of his life which God has given him, for this is his lot.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:5:19 @ Every man also to whom God has given wealth and possessions and power to enjoy them, and to accept his lot and find enjoyment in his toil--this is the gift of God.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:2 @ a man to whom God gives wealth, possessions, and honor, so that he lacks nothing of all that he desires, yet God does not give him power to enjoy them, but a stranger enjoys them; this is vanity; it is a sore affliction.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:4 @ For it comes into vanity and goes into darkness, and in darkness its name is covered;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:6 @ Even though he should live a thousand years twice told, yet enjoy no good--do not all go to the one place?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:7 @ All the toil of man is for his mouth, yet his appetite is not satisfied.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:8 @ For what advantage has the wise man over the fool? And what does the poor man have who knows how to conduct himself before the living?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:6:10 @ Whatever has come to be has already been named, and it is known what man is, and that he is not able to dispute with one stronger than he.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:2 @ It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting; for this is the end of all men, and the living will lay it to heart.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:5 @ It is better for a man to hear the rebuke of the wise than to hear the song of fools.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:9 @ Be not quick to anger, for anger lodges in the bosom of fools.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:11 @ Wisdom is good with an inheritance, an advantage to those who see the sun.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:19 @ Wisdom gives strength to the wise man more than ten rulers that are in a city.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:21 @ Do not give heed to all the things that men say, lest you hear your servant cursing you;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:25 @ I turned my mind to know and to search out and to seek wisdom and the sum of things, and to know the wickedness of folly and the foolishness which is madness.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:7:27 @ Behold, this is what I found, says the Preacher, adding one thing to another to find the sum,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:4 @ For the word of the king is supreme, and who may say to him, "What are you doing?"

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:7 @ For he does not know what is to be, for who can tell him how it will be?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:8 @ No man has power to retain the spirit, or authority over the day of death; there is no discharge from war, nor will wickedness deliver those who are given to it.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:9 @ All this I observed while applying my mind to all that is done under the sun, while man lords it over man to his hurt.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:10 @ Then I saw the wicked buried; they used to go in and out of the holy place, and were praised in the city where they had done such things. This also is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:11 @ Because sentence against an evil deed is not executed speedily, the heart of the sons of men is fully set to do evil.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:14 @ There is a vanity which takes place on earth, that there are righteous men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the wicked, and there are wicked men to whom it happens according to the deeds of the righteous. I said that this also is vanity.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:15 @ And I commend enjoyment, for man has no good thing under the sun but to eat and drink, and enjoy himself, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of life which God gives him under the sun.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:16 @ When I applied my mind to know wisdom, and to see the business that is done on earth, how neither day nor night one's eyes see sleep;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:8:17 @ then I saw all the work of God, that man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun. However much man may toil in seeking, he will not find it out; even though a wise man claims to know, he cannot find it out.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:1 @ But all this I laid to heart, examining it all, how the righteous and the wise and their deeds are in the hand of God; whether it is love or hate man does not know. Everything before them is vanity,

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:2 @ since one fate comes to all, to the righteous and the wicked, to the good and the evil, to the clean and the unclean, to him who sacrifices and him who does not sacrifice. As is the good man, so is the sinner; and he who swears is as he who shuns an oath.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:3 @ This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that one fate comes to all; also the hearts of men are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:9 @ Enjoy life with the wife whom you love, all the days of your vain life which he has given you under the sun, because that is your portion in life and in your toil at which you toil under the sun.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:10 @ Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with your might; for there is no work or thought or knowledge or wisdom in Sheol, to which you are going.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:11 @ Again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to the men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:9:13 @ I have also seen this example of wisdom under the sun, and it seemed great to me.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:2 @ A wise man's heart inclines him toward the right, but a fool's heart toward the left.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:3 @ Even when the fool walks on the road, he lacks sense, and he says to every one that he is a fool.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:8 @ He who digs a pit will fall into it; and a serpent will bite him who breaks through a wall.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:9 @ He who quarries stones is hurt by them; and he who splits logs is endangered by them.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:10 @ If the iron is blunt, and one does not whet the edge, he must put forth more strength; but wisdom helps one to succeed.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:14 @ A fool multiplies words, though no man knows what is to be, and who can tell him what will be after him?

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:15 @ The toil of a fool wearies him, so that he does not know the way to the city.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:10:16 @ Woe to you, O land, when your king is a child, and your princes feast in the morning!

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:2 @ Give a portion to seven, or even to eight, for you know not what evil may happen on earth.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:3 @ If the clouds are full of rain, they empty themselves on the earth; and if a tree falls to the south or to the north, in the place where the tree falls, there it will lie.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:5 @ As you do not know how the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a woman with child, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:7 @ Light is sweet, and it is pleasant for the eyes to behold the sun.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:11:9 @ Rejoice, O young man, in your youth, and let your heart cheer you in the days of your youth; walk in the ways of your heart and the sight of your eyes. But know that for all these things God will bring you into judgment.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:1 @ Remember also your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days come, and the years draw nigh, when you will say, "I have no pleasure in them";

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:5 @ they are afraid also of what is high, and terrors are in the way; the almond tree blossoms, the grasshopper drags itself along and desire fails; because man goes to his eternal home, and the mourners go about the streets;

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:7 @ and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:10 @ The Preacher sought to find pleasing words, and uprightly he wrote words of truth.

rsv@Ecclesiastes:12:14 @ For God will bring every deed into judgment, with every secret thing, whether good or evil.

rsv@Songs:1:4 @ Draw me after you, let us make haste. The king has brought me into his chambers. We will exult and rejoice in you; we will extol your love more than wine; rightly do they love you.

rsv@Songs:1:9 @ I compare you, my love, to a mare of Pharaoh's chariots.

rsv@Songs:1:13 @ My beloved is to me a bag of myrrh, that lies between my breasts.

rsv@Songs:1:14 @ My beloved is to me a cluster of henna blossoms in the vineyards of Enge'di.

rsv@Songs:2:3 @ As an apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among young men. With great delight I sat in his shadow, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.

rsv@Songs:2:4 @ He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.

rsv@Songs:2:10 @ My beloved speaks and says to me: "Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away;

rsv@Songs:3:4 @ Scarcely had I passed them, when I found him whom my soul loves. I held him, and would not let him go until I had brought him into my mother's house, and into the chamber of her that conceived me.

rsv@Songs:4:4 @ Your neck is like the tower of David, built for an arsenal, whereon hang a thousand bucklers, all of them shields of warriors.

rsv@Songs:4:6 @ Until the day breathes and the shadows flee, I will hie me to the mountain of myrrh and the hill of frankincense.

rsv@Songs:4:11 @ Your lips distil nectar, my bride; honey and milk are under your tongue; the scent of your garments is like the scent of Lebanon.

rsv@Songs:4:16 @ Awake, O north wind, and come, O south wind! Blow upon my garden, let its fragrance be wafted abroad. Let my beloved come to his garden, and eat its choicest fruits.

rsv@Songs:5:1 @ I come to my garden, my sister, my bride, I gather my myrrh with my spice, I eat my honeycomb with my honey, I drink my wine with my milk. Eat, O friends, and drink: drink deeply, O lovers!

rsv@Songs:5:2 @ I slept, but my heart was awake. Hark! my beloved is knocking. "Open to me, my sister, my love, my dove, my perfect one; for my head is wet with dew, my locks with the drops of the night."

rsv@Songs:5:4 @ My beloved put his hand to the latch, and my heart was thrilled within me.

rsv@Songs:5:5 @ I arose to open to my beloved, and my hands dripped with myrrh, my fingers with liquid myrrh, upon the handles of the bolt.

rsv@Songs:5:6 @ I opened to my beloved, but my beloved had turned and gone. My soul failed me when he spoke. I sought him, but found him not; I called him, but he gave no answer.

rsv@Songs:5:7 @ The watchmen found me, as they went about in the city; they beat me, they wounded me, they took away my mantle, those watchmen of the walls.

rsv@Songs:5:16 @ His speech is most sweet, and he is altogether desirable. This is my beloved and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.

rsv@Songs:6:2 @ My beloved has gone down to his garden, to the beds of spices, to pasture his flock in the gardens, and to gather lilies.

rsv@Songs:6:9 @ My dove, my perfect one, is only one, the darling of her mother, flawless to her that bore her. The maidens saw her and called her happy; the queens and concubines also, and they praised her.

rsv@Songs:6:11 @ I went down to the nut orchard, to look at the blossoms of the valley, to see whether the vines had budded, whether the pomegranates were in bloom.

rsv@Songs:7:4 @ Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes are pools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bath-rab'bim. Your nose is like a tower of Lebanon, overlooking Damascus.

rsv@Songs:7:11 @ Come, my beloved, let us go forth into the fields, and lodge in the villages;

rsv@Songs:7:12 @ let us go out early to the vineyards, and see whether the vines have budded, whether the grape blossoms have opened and the pomegranates are in bloom. There I will give you my love.
