Hosea:1:1 @ The word of the Lord that came unto Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziyah, Jotham, Achaz, Hezekiah, the kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash the king of Israel.
lesserot@Hosea:1:4 @ And the Lord said unto him, Call his name Yizreel; for but yet a little while, when I will visit the blood of Yizreel upon the house of Jehu, and I will cause to cease the kingdom of the house of Israel.
lesserot@Hosea:1:5 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that I will break the bow of Israel in the valley of Yizreel.
lesserot@Hosea:1:6 @ And she conceived again, and bore a daughter: and he said unto him, Call her name Loruchamah; for I will not farther have any more mercy upon the house of Israel; but I will give them their full recompense.

lesserot@Hosea:3:1 @ Then said the Lord unto me, Go once more, love a woman beloved of her husband, yet committing adultery; like the love of the Lord toward the children of Israel, who turn themselves after other gods, and love flagons of wine.
lesserot@Hosea:3:4 @ For many days shall the children of Israel abide without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without a standing image, and without an ephod and theraphim.
lesserot@Hosea:3:5 @ After that will the children of Israel return, and seek for the Lord their God and David their king; and fearing will they hasten to the Lord and to his goodness in the latter days,
lesserot@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear the word of the Lord, ye children of Israel; for the Lord hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land; because there is no truth, nor kindness, nor knowledge of God in the land.
lesserot@Hosea:4:2 @ There is false swearing, and lying, and murdering, and stealing, and committing adultery: they break the bounds, and blood toucheth on blood.
lesserot@Hosea:4:3 @ Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of the heaven; yea, also the fishes of the sea shall perish.
lesserot@Hosea:4:9 @ Therefore shall the same befall both people and priest: and I will punish every one of them for his ways, and recompense every one for his doings.
lesserot@Hosea:4:10 @ And they will eat, and shall not be satisfied; they will commit lewdness, and they shall not increase; because the Lord have they forsaken keeping.
lesserot@Hosea:4:13 @ Upon the tops of the mountains do they sacrifice, and upon the hills burn they incense, under oaks and poplars and terebinths, because their shadow is good: therefore will your daughters play the harlot, and your daughterinlaw will commit adultery.
lesserot@Hosea:4:14 @ I cannot inflict punishment on your daughters when they play the harlot, nor on your daughtersinlaw when they commit adultery; for they themselves associate with lewd women, and with harlots do they sacrifice: and so doth the people that doth not understand stumble.
lesserot@Hosea:4:15 @ Yet though thou play the harlot, O Israel, let not Judah offend: and come not ye unto Gilgal, nor go ye up to Bethaven, nor swear, As the Lord liveth.
lesserot@Hosea:4:16 @ For like an untamable cow is Israel disobedient: now would the Lord have fed them as a sheep in a wide pasture.
lesserot@Hosea:4:17 @ Ephraim is bound to idols: let him alone.
lesserot@Hosea:5:1 @ Hear this, O ye priests; and listen well, O ye house of Israel; and give ye ear, O house of the king; for the punishment threateneth you; because ye have been a snare on Mizpah, and a net spread out upon Thabor.
lesserot@Hosea:5:3 @ I well know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from me; for now, O Ephraim, hast thou played the harlot, Israel is defiled.
lesserot@Hosea:5:4 @ Their doings will not permit them to return unto their God; for the spirit of lewdness is in their bosom, and the Lord they have not known.
lesserot@Hosea:5:5 @ Therefore shall the pride of Israel be humbled before his face: and Israel and Ephraim shall stumble in their iniquity; Judah also shall stumble with them.
lesserot@Hosea:5:9 @ Ephraim shall be made desolate on the day of chastisement: among the tribes of Israel had I made known that which is true.
lesserot@Hosea:5:11 @ Oppressed is Ephraim, broken through punishment; because he willingly walked after the commandment.
lesserot@Hosea:5:13 @ Then saw Ephraim his sickness, and Judah his wound, and Ephraim went to Asshur, and sent to the king that should contend; but he will never be able to heal you, nor remove from you your wound.
lesserot@Hosea:6:2 @ He will revive us after two days: on the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live in his presence.
lesserot@Hosea:6:3 @ And let us feel it, that we may strive to know the Lord; bright as the morningdawn is his rising; and he will come as the rain unto us, as the latter rain that maketh fruitful the earth."
lesserot@Hosea:6:4 @ What shall I do unto thee, O Ephraim? what shall I do unto thee, O Judah? for your piety is as a morning cloud, and as the early dew that passeth away.
lesserot@Hosea:6:5 @ Therefore did I hew down by means of the prophets; I slew them by the words of my mouth: and thy punishments go forth like the light.
lesserot@Hosea:6:8 @ Gilad is become a city of workers of wickedness, is full of traces of blood.
lesserot@Hosea:6:9 @ And as troops that lie in wait for a man, so is the band of priests, they murder on the way in unison; for they commit scandalous deeds.
lesserot@Hosea:6:10 @ On the house of Israel have I seen a horrible thing: there is lewdness in Ephraim, Israel is become defiled.
lesserot@Hosea:7:1 @ Should I desire to heal Israel, then would the iniquity of Ephraim and the wickedness of Samaria be laid open; for they commit falsehood; and the thief entereth, and the troop of robbers is spread abroad without.
lesserot@Hosea:7:5 @ On the day of our kings the princes are made sick with the fumes of wine: joineth his hand with scorners.
lesserot@Hosea:7:7 @ They are all hot as an oven, they devour their judges; all their kings are fallen: there is none among them that calleth unto me.
lesserot@Hosea:7:8 @ Ephraim mixeth himself indeed among the nations: Ephraim is a cake not turned.
lesserot@Hosea:7:9 @ Strangers devour his strength, and he knoweth it not: yea, gray hairs are sprinkled about on his, yet he knoweth not.
lesserot@Hosea:7:10 @ And humbled was the pride of Israel before his own face; but they did not return to the Lord their God, and sought him not, notwithstanding all this.
lesserot@Hosea:7:11 @ And Ephraim is become like a silly dove without understanding: Egypt did they call hither, to Assyria did they go.
lesserot@Hosea:7:12 @ As they go, so will I spread out my net over them; as the fowls of the heaven will I bring them down: I will chastise them, as it hath been announced to their congregation.
lesserot@Hosea:7:15 @ And I desired to instruct and to strengthen their arms; yet would they devise evil against me.
lesserot@Hosea:7:16 @ They never return upward: they are like a deceitful bow: by the sword shall their princes fall because of the rage of their tongue; this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.
lesserot@Hosea:8:2 @ To me will they then cry, My God, we, Israel, know thee.
lesserot@Hosea:8:3 @ Israel did reject the good; so let the enemy pursue him.
lesserot@Hosea:8:5 @ Thy calf, O Samaria, hath caused thy rejection; my anger is kindled against them: how long will it be that they cannot cleanse themselves?
lesserot@Hosea:8:6 @ For whom Israel did also that spring; an artisan made it, and no God is it: so then shall it become broken in splinters that calf of Samaria.
lesserot@Hosea:8:8 @ Swallowed up is Israel: now are they among the nations as a vessel without any value.
lesserot@Hosea:8:13 @ My sacrificial offerings they slay as common flesh that they may eat it; the Lord accepteth them not in favor: now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins; they shall indeed return to Egypt.
lesserot@Hosea:8:14 @ For Israel forgot his Maker, and built palaces; and Judah multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire among his cities, and it shall devour their fine edifices.
lesserot@Hosea:9:1 @ Rejoice not, O Israel, for gladness, as other people; for thou art gone astray, unfaithful to thy God: thou hast loved the wages of sin upon every cornfilled threshingfloor.
lesserot@Hosea:9:4 @ They shall not pour out wine to the Lord, and shall not be pleasing unto him; their sacrifices shall be unto them as the bread of mourners; all that eat thereof shall be polluted: for this their food can only be for themselves, it shall not come into the house of the Lord.
lesserot@Hosea:9:7 @ Come are the days of the visitation, come are the days of thy recompense; this shall Israel experience: a fool was the prophet, mad the inspired man, because of the greatness of thy iniquity, and the great hatefulness.
lesserot@Hosea:9:8 @ The watchman of Ephraim with my God, the prophet, was a snare of the fowler on all his ways, a hateful thing in the house of his god.
lesserot@Hosea:9:9 @ They are deeply corrupt, as in the days of Gibah: he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins.
lesserot@Hosea:9:10 @ Like grapes in the wilderness had I found Israel; as the first ripe fruit on the figtree in the first of the season had I seen your fathers; but they too went to Baalpeor: and devoted themselves unto that shameful idol, and became abominations as those they loved.
lesserot@Hosea:9:11 @ As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird: there is no more birth, and no pregnancy, and no conception.
lesserot@Hosea:9:13 @ Ephraim, as I have seen him like Tyre, planted in a pleasant meadow,yet this Ephraim shall lead forth to the murderer his children.
lesserot@Hosea:9:14 @ Give them, O Lord, what thou wilt give! give them a miscarrying womb and driedup breasts.
lesserot@Hosea:9:15 @ All their wickedness is in Gilgal; for there I hate them; for the wickedness of their doings will I drive them out of my house: I will love them no farther; all their princes are rebels.
lesserot@Hosea:9:16 @ Smitten is Ephraim, their root is dried up, they shall bear no fruit; yea, though they should bring forth, yet would I slay the beloved fruit of their body.
lesserot@Hosea:10:1 @ An emptied vine is Israel; how should he bring forth fruit for himself? the more numerous was his fruit the more he increased the altars; the more prosperous was his land, the more they made goodly statues.
lesserot@Hosea:10:2 @ Their heart is divided; now shall they bear their guilt: this will break down their altars, will devastate their statues.
lesserot@Hosea:10:4 @ They have spoken words, swearing falsely in making a covenant: therefore springeth up the punishment as poison in the furrows of the field.
lesserot@Hosea:10:5 @ For the calves of Bethaven are terrified the inhabitants of Samaria: yea, the people thereof mourn over them, and also its false priests that rejoiced over them, for its glory, because it is departed from it.
lesserot@Hosea:10:6 @ Also this shall be carried unto Assyria for a present to the contentious king: Ephraim shall receive shame, and Israel shall be ashamed because of his own counsel.
lesserot@Hosea:10:7 @ As for Samaria, her king shall vanish like the foam upon the surface of the water.
lesserot@Hosea:10:8 @ And destroyed shall be the highplaces of Aven, the sin of Israel; the thorn and the thistle shall grow upon their altars: and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall upon us.
lesserot@Hosea:10:9 @ More than in the days of Gibah hast thou sinned, O Israel! there they stood; and the battle in Gibah against the children of wickedness did not overtake them.
lesserot@Hosea:10:10 @ after my desire will I chastise them: and the people shall be gathered against them, when they harness them in their two furrows.
lesserot@Hosea:10:11 @ And Ephraim is as a welltaught heifer that loveth to tread out the corn; and I passed over her fair neck: now will I make Ephraim draw the wagon, Judah shall plough, and Jacob shall harrow the field for the enemy.
lesserot@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow then for yourselves after righteousness, that you may reap of kindness; cultivate your fallow field; for it is time to seek the Lord, till he come and rain righteousness down for you.
lesserot@Hosea:10:14 @ Therefore shall a tumult arise among thy people, and all thy fortresses shall be wasted, as Shalman devastated Betharbel on the day of battle, the mother was dashed in pieces upon her children.
lesserot@Hosea:10:15 @ The like of this doth Bethel procure unto you because of your great wickedness: in the early morning shall utterly pass away the king of Israel.
lesserot@Hosea:11:1 @ When Israel was yet young, then I loved him, and out of Egypt did I call my son.
lesserot@Hosea:11:3 @ Yet I myself appointed a leader for Ephraim, who took them up in his arms; but they would not acknowledge that I healed them.
lesserot@Hosea:11:5 @ He should not return unto the land of Egypt: yet is the Assyrian his king; because they refused to repent.
lesserot@Hosea:11:6 @ And the sword shall fall on his cities, and shall make an end of his boughs, and consume them, because of their counsels.
lesserot@Hosea:11:8 @ How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I surrender thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah? how shall I change thee as Zeboyim? turned is my heart within me, all my compassion is enkindled together.
lesserot@Hosea:13:1 @ When once Ephraim spoke, trembled, so high was he exalted in Israel; but he offended through Baal, and he died.
lesserot@Hosea:13:2 @ And now they yet continue to sin, and have made themselves molten images of their silver, idols according to their own imagining, every one of them the work of the artisan: they say to them, They that sacrifice men may kiss the calves.
lesserot@Hosea:13:3 @ Therefore shall they be as the morning cloud, and as the dew that early passeth away, as the chaff that is driven by the whirlwind out of the threshingfloor, and as smoke out of a window.
lesserot@Hosea:13:4 @ Yet I am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt: and no god but me shalt thou know, and there is no saviour beside me.
lesserot@Hosea:13:9 @ Thou hast destroyed thyself, O Israel; for against me, against thy helper
lesserot@Hosea:13:10 @ Where then is now thy king, that he may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges, since thou saidst, Give me a king, and princes?
lesserot@Hosea:13:12 @ Bound up is the iniquity of Ephraim, treasured up is his sin.
lesserot@Hosea:13:13 @ The pains of a travailing woman shall come upon him; he is an unwise son; for he will not remain steadfast at the time of the breaking forth of the child.
lesserot@Hosea:13:14 @ From the power of the grave would I ransom them, from death would I redeem them; where are thy plagues, O death, where is thy pestilence, O grave? compassion shall be hidden from my eyes.
lesserot@Hosea:13:15 @ Though he grow luxuriantly in the green meadows, the east wind shall come, the wind of the Lord, rising up from the wilderness, and his spring shall become dry, and his fountain shall be dried up: the same shall plunder the treasure of all precious vessels.
lesserot@Joel:1:2 @ Hear this, ye old men, and give ear, all ye inhabitants of the land. Did ever such a thing as this come to pass in your days, or ever in the days of your fathers?
lesserot@Joel:1:5 @ Wake up, ye drunkards, and weep; and wail, all ye drinkers of wine, because of the sweet new wine, that it is taken away from your mouth.
lesserot@Joel:1:6 @ For a nation is come up over my land, strong, and without number; its teeth are the teeth of a lion, and it hath the cuttingteeth of the lioness.
lesserot@Joel:1:9 @ Cut off are the meatoffering and the drinkoffering from the house of the Lord: now mourn the priests, the ministers of the Lord.
lesserot@Joel:1:10 @ Wasted is the field, the land mourneth; for wasted is the corn: dried up is the new wine, withered is the oil.
lesserot@Joel:1:11 @ Be ashamed, O ye husbandmen; wail, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because lost is the harvest of the field.
lesserot@Joel:1:12 @ The vine is made ashamed, and the figtree is withered; the pomegranatetree, the palmtree also, and the appletree, even all the trees of the field, are dried up; because joy hath ceased from the children of men.
lesserot@Joel:1:13 @ Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests; wail, ye ministers of the altar: come, remain all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God; for there are withholden from the house of your God the meatoffering and the drinkoffering.
lesserot@Joel:1:15 @ Alas for the day! for the day of the Lord is at hand, and like destruction from the Almighty will it come.
lesserot@Joel:1:16 @ Is not before our eyes the food cut off, from the house of our God joy and gladness?
lesserot@Joel:1:17 @ The grains of seed are rotten under their clods, laid desolate are the garners, pulled down are the barns; for the corn is dried up.
lesserot@Joel:1:18 @ How do the beasts groan! how do the herds of cattle roam about; because there is no pasture for them: yea, the flocks of sheep are made to perish.
lesserot@Joel:2:1 @ Blow ye the cornet in Zion, and sound an alarm on my holy mount; let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; for the day of the Lord cometh, for it is nigh;
lesserot@Joel:2:2 @ It is a day of darkness and of gloom, a day of clouds and of tempestuous obscurity, like the morningdawn spread out upon the mountains: a people numerous and strong, the like of which hath never been and after it there will be none any more, even to the years of all coming generations.
lesserot@Joel:2:3 @ Before it devoureth a fire; and behind it singeth a flame: like the garden of Eden was the land before it, and after it is a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing escapeth from it.
lesserot@Joel:2:4 @ Like the appearance of horses is its appearance; and like horsemen, so do they run.
lesserot@Joel:2:5 @ Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains do they leap; they are like the noise of a flame of fire consuming the stubble, as a strong people arrayed for a battle.
lesserot@Joel:2:7 @ Like mighty men do they run; like men of war they climb up a wall; and they march every one on his own ways, and they turn not aside on their paths.
lesserot@Joel:2:8 @ And they do not press one another; every one on his beaten track do they go forward: and they pass through between warlike weapons, and change not their purpose.
lesserot@Joel:2:11 @ And the Lord uttereth his voice before his army; for very numerous is his camp; for strong is he that executeth his word; for great is the day of the Lord and very terrible; and who is able to endure it?
lesserot@Joel:2:13 @ And rend your heart, and not your garments, and return unto the Lord your God; for gracious and merciful is he, long suffering, and of great kindness, and he bethinketh himself of the evil.
lesserot@Joel:2:14 @ He that is conscious, let him return and repent: when may leave behind it a blessing; even a meatoffering and a drinkoffering unto the Lord your God.
lesserot@Joel:2:16 @ Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts; let the bridegroom go forth out of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.
lesserot@Joel:2:17 @ Between the porch and the altar let the priests weep, the ministers of the Lord, and let them say, Spare, O Lord, thy people, and give not up thy heritage to reproach, for nations to make a byword of them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?
lesserot@Joel:2:18 @ And the Lord was zealous for his land, and he had pity for his people.
lesserot@Joel:2:19 @ And the Lord answered and said unto his people, "Behold, I will send you the corn, and the young wine, and the oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith; and I will not give you up any more to be a reproach among the nations:

lesserot@Amos:1:11 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because he pursued with the sword his brother, and disregarded his mercy, and his anger tore in pieces continually, and he kept his wrath for ever:
lesserot@Amos:1:13 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they have ripped up the pregnant women of Gilad, in order to enlarge their own territory;

lesserot@Amos:2:6 @ Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they sold for silver the righteous, and the needy for a pair of shoes;
lesserot@Amos:2:7 @ That are eager after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in unto the same young woman, in order to profane my holy name.
lesserot@Amos:2:9 @ Yet have I destroyed the Emorite from before them, whose height was like the height of cedars, and who was strong as the oaks; but I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
lesserot@Amos:2:11 @ And I have raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for nazarites: is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the Lord.
lesserot@Amos:2:13 @ Behold, I press down under you, as the wagon presseth down that is full of sheaves.

lesserot@Amos:3:9 @ Publish at the palaces in Ashdod, and at the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great confusions in her midst, and the oppressions within her.

lesserot@Amos:4:13 @ For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morningdawn darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The Lord, the God of hosts, is his name.
lesserot@Amos:5:1 @ Hear ye this word which I take up against you, as a lamentation, O house of Israel.
lesserot@Amos:5:2 @ She is fallen, she will not rise againthe virgin of Israel: she is thrown down upon her land; there is none to raise her up.
lesserot@Amos:5:3 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The city that goeth forth with a thousand shall retain but a hundred, and she that goeth forth with a hundred shall retain but ten, to the house of Israel.
lesserot@Amos:5:4 @ For thus hath said the Lord unto the house of Israel, Seek ye for me, and ye shall live;
lesserot@Amos:5:8 @ he maketh the seven stars and Orion, and changeth into morning the shadow of death, and maketh the day dark into night; he it is that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out over the face of the earth: The Lord is his name;
lesserot@Amos:5:13 @ Therefore will the intelligent keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.

lesserot@Amos:6:8 @ The Lord Eternal hath sworn by his own existence, saith the Lord the God of hosts, I abhor the pride of Jacob, and his palaces do I hate: therefore will I surrender up the city with all that filleth it.
lesserot@Amos:6:10 @ And should a mans uncle or relative carry him forth, to bring out the bones out of the house, and say unto him that is in the recesses of the house, Is there yet any one with thee? he will say, There is no one left.

lesserot@Amos:6:12 @ Do horses ever run upon the rock? or will one plough there with oxen? that ye have turned justice into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood;
lesserot@Amos:6:14 @ For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the Lord the God of hosts, and they shall oppress you from the entrance of Chamath unto the brook of the wilderness.
lesserot@Amos:7:2 @ And it came to pass, when they had made an end of eating up the herbs of the earth, that I said, O Lord Eternal, forgive, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!
lesserot@Amos:7:3 @ The Lord bethought himself of this: It shall not be, said the Lord.

lesserot@Amos:7:8 @ And the Lord said unto me, What dost thou see, Amos? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel; I will not farther indulge them any more.
lesserot@Amos:7:9 @ And the high places of Isaac shall be made desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid in ruins: and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
lesserot@Amos:7:10 @ Then sent Amazyah, the priest of Bethel, to Jeroboam the king of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
lesserot@Amos:7:11 @ For thus hath Amos said, By the sword shall Jeroboam die, and Israel shall surely be led away into exile out of their own land.
lesserot@Amos:7:13 @ But at Bethel prophesy not farther any more; for it is the kings sanctuary, and it is a royal residence.
lesserot@Amos:7:15 @ But the Lord hath taken me away from behind the flocks, and the Lord said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
lesserot@Amos:7:16 @ And now hear thou the word of the Lord, Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house of Isaac.
lesserot@Amos:7:17 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Thy wife will play the harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided out by the line; and thou shalt die in an unclean land; and Israel shall surely be led forth into exile out of their land.

lesserot@Amos:9:1 @ I saw the Lord standing upon the altar; and he said, Smite the capital, that the sills may quake; and break them in pieces over the head of all of them; and their posterity will I slay with the sword: there shall not flee away from them one that fleeth, and there shall not escape from them one that is saved.
lesserot@Amos:9:5 @ And the Lord Eternal of hosts it is that toucheth the earth, and she melteth away, and all that dwell thereon shall mourn; and she riseth up like a stream wholly; and she sinketh like the stream of Egypt;

lesserot@Obadiah:1:9 @ And thy mighty men, O Theman, shall be dismayed, in order that every one from the mount of Esau may be cut off by slaughter.
lesserot@Obadiah:1:11 @ On the day that thou stoodest on the other side, on the day that strangers carried away captive his army, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots over Jerusalem, also thou wast as any one of them.
lesserot@Obadiah:1:12 @ But thou shouldst not have looked on at the day of thy brother, on the day that he was delivered up to strangers; neither shouldst thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah on the day of their destruction; nor should thou have spoken proudly on the day of distress.
lesserot@Obadiah:1:14 @ Neither shouldst thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldst thou have delivered up those of his that did remain on the day of distress.
lesserot@Obadiah:1:15 @ For near is the day of the Lord over all the nations: as thou hast done, shall it be done unto thee; thy deeds shall return upon thy own head.

lesserot@Jonah:1:5 @ And the mariners were afraid, and called every man unto his god; and they cast forth the articles which were in the ship into the sea, to be lightened of them. But Jonah was gone down into the hold of the ship, and lay down, and was fast asleep.
lesserot@Jonah:1:6 @ So the shipmaster came near unto him, and said unto him, Why dost thou sleep? arise, call upon thy God: perhaps it be that God will think of us, that we may not be lost.
lesserot@Jonah:1:7 @ And they said one to the other, Come, and let us cast lots; that we may know for whose cause this evil hath happened unto us. And they cast lots, and the lot fell upon Jonah.
lesserot@Jonah:1:8 @ Then said they unto him, Tell us, we pray thee, thou for whose cause this evil hath happened unto us, What is thy business? and whence comest thou? what is thy country? and of what people art thou?
lesserot@Jonah:1:10 @ Then were the men exceedingly afraid and they said unto him, What is this thou hast done? for the men knew that he was flying from the presence of the Lord; because he had told them.
lesserot@Jonah:1:12 @ And he said unto them, Take me up, and cast me forth into the sea: so shall the sea be calm around you; for I know well that because of me is this great tempest upon you.
lesserot@Jonah:1:14 @ And they called unto the Lord, and said, We beseech thee, O Lord, let us not be lost, we pray thee, for the life of this man, and lay not upon us innocent blood; for thou art the Lord, as it pleaseth thee so dost thou do.
lesserot@Jonah:3:2 @ Arise, go unto Nineveh, the great city, and proclaim unto it the proclamation which I shall speak unto thee.

lesserot@Jonah:3:7 @ And he caused to be proclaimed and he published through Nineveh, By the decree of the king and his chief men, it is said, Neither man nor beast, neither herds nor flocks, shall taste any thing; they shall not feed, nor drink water;
lesserot@Jonah:3:8 @ But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and let call unto God with might; and let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence which is in their hands.

lesserot@Jonah:4:2 @ And he prayed unto the Lord, and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my word, while I was yet in my own country?

lesserot@Jonah:4:3 @ And now, O Lord, take, I pray thee, my soul from me; because it is better for me to die, than to live.
lesserot@Jonah:4:6 @ And the Lord God made ready a gourd, and it grew up over Jonah, to be a shade over his head, to relieve him from his affliction. And Jonah rejoiced because of the gourd exceedingly.
lesserot@Jonah:4:8 @ And it came to pass, when the sun arose, that God made ready a hot east wind; and the sun beat upon the head of Jonah, that he became faint; and he wished for himself to die, and said, It is better for me to die than to live.
lesserot@Jonah:4:10 @ And the Lord said, Thou wouldst have spared the gourd, for which thou hadst not labored, neither hadst thou made it grow; which came up in one night, and perished in one night;
lesserot@Jonah:4:11 @ And shall I not spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than twelve times ten thousand persons, who know not how to discern between their right hand and their left hand, and also much cattle?

lesserot@Micah:1:9 @ For her wounds arc incurable; for is come even unto Judah; hath reached as far as the gate of my people, even up to Jerusalem.
lesserot@Micah:1:12 @ For the inhabitress of Maroth is grieved for the good; because evil came down from the Lord unto the gate of Jerusalem.
lesserot@Micah:1:13 @ Bind the chariot to the swift horses, O inhabitress of Lachish: the beginning of sin was she to the daughter of Zion; for in thee were found the transgressions of Israel.
lesserot@Micah:1:14 @ Therefore shalt thou have to give presents to Moreshethgath: the houses of Achzib shall become a deception to the kings of Israel.

lesserot@Micah:2:1 @ Woe to those that devise wickedness, and resolve on evil upon their couches! by the first light of the morning they execute it, if they have it in the power of their hand.
lesserot@Micah:2:2 @ And they covet fields, and rob them; and houses, and take them away: so they defraud the master and his house, and the man and his heritage.
