nasb@Hosea:1:2 @When the LORD first spoke through Hosea, the LORD said to Hosea, " Go, take to yourself a wife of harlotry and have children of harlotry; for the land commits flagrant harlotry, forsaking the LORD."

nasb@Hosea:1:9 @And the LORD said, "Name him Lo-ammi, for you are not My people and I am not your God."

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:2:2 @Say to your brothers, " Ammi," and to your sisters, " Ruhamah."

nasb@Hosea:2:2" @Contend with your mother, contend, For she is not my wife, and I am not her husband; And let her put away her harlotry from her face And her adultery from between her breasts,

nasb@Hosea:2:15" @Then I will give her her vineyards from there, And the valley of Achor as a door of hope. And she will sing there as in the days of her youth, As in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt.

nasb@Hosea:2:16" @It will come about in that day," declares the LORD, "That you will call Me Ishi And will no longer call Me Baali.

nasb@Hosea:2:19" @I will betroth you to Me forever; Yes, I will betroth you to Me in righteousness and in justice, In lovingkindness and in compassion,

nasb@Hosea:2:20 @And I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness. Then you will know the LORD.

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:3:3 @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:4:4 @Yet let no one find fault, and let none offer reproof; For your people are like those who contend with the priest.

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:4:13 @They offer sacrifices on the tops of the mountains And burn incense on the hills, Under oak, poplar and terebinth, Because their shade is pleasant. Therefore your daughters play the harlot And your brides commit adultery.

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:5:1 @Hear this, O priests! Give heed, O house of Israel! Listen, O house of the king! For the judgment applies to you, For you have been a snare at Mizpah And a net spread out on Tabor.

nasb@Hosea:5:3 @I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from Me; For now, O Ephraim, you have played the harlot, Israel has defiled itself.

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

nasb@Hosea:5:13 @When Ephraim saw his sickness, And Judah his wound, Then Ephraim went to Assyria And sent to King Jareb. But he is unable to heal you, Or to cure you of your wound.

nasb@Hosea:5:14 @For I will be like a lion to Ephraim And like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear to pieces and go away, I will carry away, and there will be none to deliver.

nasb@Hosea:5:4 @What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? For your loyalty is like a morning cloud And like the dew which goes away early.

nasb@Hosea:5:5 @Therefore I have hewn them in pieces by the prophets; I have slain them by the words of My mouth; And the judgments on you are like the light that goes forth.

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

nasb@Hosea:7:1 @Put the trumpet to your lips! Like an eagle the enemy comes against the house of the LORD, Because they have transgressed My covenant And rebelled against My law.

nasb@Hosea:7:2 @They cry out to Me, "My God, we of Israel know You!"

nasb@Hosea:7:5 @He has rejected your calf, O Samaria, saying, "My anger burns against them!" How long will they be incapable of innocence?

nasb@Hosea:8:1 @Do not rejoice, O Israel, with exultation like the nations! For you have played the harlot, forsaking your God. You have loved harlots' earnings on every threshing floor.

nasb@Hosea:8:5 @What will you do on the day of the appointed festival And on the day of the feast of the LORD?

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:8:14 @Give them, O LORD--what will You give? Give them a miscarrying womb and dry breasts.

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:9:13 @You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped injustice, You have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your way, in your numerous warriors,

nasb@Hosea:9:14 @Therefore a tumult will arise among your people, And all your fortresses will be destroyed, As Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel on the day of battle, When mothers were dashed in pieces with their children.

nasb@Hosea:9:15 @Thus it will be done to you at Bethel because of your great wickedness. At dawn the king of Israel will be completely cut off.

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

nasb@Hosea:10:8 @How can I give you up, O Ephraim? How can I surrender you, O Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I treat you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned over within Me, All My compassions are kindled.

nasb@Hosea:10:9 @I will not execute My fierce anger; I will not destroy Ephraim again. For I am God and not man, the Holy One in your midst, And I will not come in wrath.

nasb@Hosea:11:6 @Therefore, return to your God, Observe kindness and justice, And wait for your God continually.

nasb@Hosea:11:9 @But I have been the LORD your God since the land of Egypt; I will make you live in tents again, As in the days of the appointed festival.

nasb@Hosea:12:4 @Yet I have been the LORD your God Since the land of Egypt; And you were not to know any god except Me, For there is no savior besides Me.

nasb@Hosea:12:5 @I cared for you in the wilderness, In the land of drought.

nasb@Hosea:12:9 @It is your destruction, O Israel, That you are against Me, against your help.

nasb@Hosea:12:10 @Where now is your king That he may save you in all your cities, And your judges of whom you requested, "Give me a king and princes"?

nasb@Hosea:12:11 @I gave you a king in My anger And took him away in My wrath.

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:13:1 @Return, O Israel, to the LORD your God, For you have stumbled because of your iniquity.

nasb@Hosea:13:2 @Take words with you and return to the LORD. Say to Him, " Take away all iniquity And receive us graciously, That we may present the fruit of our lips.

nasb@Hosea:13:3" @Assyria will not save us, We will not ride on horses; Nor will we say again, ' Our god,' To the work of our hands; For in You the orphan finds mercy."

nasb@Hosea:13:8 @O Ephraim, what more have I to do with idols? It is I who answer and look after you. I am like a luxuriant cypress; From Me comes your fruit.

nasb@Joel:1:2 @Hear this, O elders, And listen, all inhabitants of the land. Has anything like this happened in your days Or in your fathers' days?

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

nasb@Joel:1:5 @Awake, drunkards, and weep; And wail, all you wine drinkers, On account of the sweet wine That is cut off from your mouth.

nasb@Joel:1:8 @Wail like a virgin girded with sackcloth For the bridegroom of her youth.

nasb@Joel:1:13 @Gird yourselves with sackcloth And lament, O priests; Wail, O ministers of the altar! Come, spend the night in sackcloth O ministers of my God, For the grain offering and the drink offering Are withheld from the house of your God.

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:1:19 @To You, O LORD, I cry; For fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness And the flame has burned up all the trees of the field.

nasb@Joel:1:20 @Even the beasts of the field pant for You; For the water brooks are dried up And fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.

nasb@Joel:2:12" @Yet even now," declares the LORD, " Return to Me with all your heart, And with fasting, weeping and mourning;

nasb@Joel:2:13 @And rend your heart and not your garments." Now return to the LORD your God, For He is gracious and compassionate, Slow to anger, abounding in lovingkindness And relenting of evil.

nasb@Joel:2:14 @Who knows whether He will not turn and relent And leave a blessing behind Him, Even a grain offering and a drink offering For the LORD your God?

nasb@Joel:2:17 @Let the priests, the LORD'S ministers, Weep between the porch and the altar, And let them say, " Spare Your people, O LORD, And do not make Your inheritance a reproach, A byword among the nations. Why should they among the peoples say, ' Where is their God?'"

nasb@Joel:2:19 @The LORD will answer and say to His people, "Behold, I am going to send you grain, new wine and oil, And you will be satisfied in full with them; And I will never again make you a reproach among the nations.

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:2:25" @Then I will make up to you for the years That the swarming locust has eaten, The creeping locust, the stripping locust and the gnawing locust, My great army which I sent among you.

nasb@Joel:2:26" @You will have plenty to eat and be satisfied And praise the name of the LORD your God, Who has dealt wondrously with you; Then My people will never be put to shame.

nasb@Joel:2:27" @Thus you will know that I am in the midst of Israel, And that I am the LORD your God, And there is no other; And My people will never be put to shame.

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:3:4" @Moreover, what are you to Me, O Tyre, Sidon and all the regions of Philistia? Are you rendering Me a recompense? But if you do recompense Me, swiftly and speedily I will return your recompense on your head.

nasb@Joel:3:5" @Since you have taken My silver and My gold, brought My precious treasures to your temples,

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:3:10 @Beat your plowshares into swords And your pruning hooks into spears; Let the weak say, "I am a mighty man."

nasb@Joel:3:11 @Hasten and come, all you surrounding nations, And gather yourselves there. Bring down, O LORD, Your mighty ones.

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@Amos:2:10" @It was I who brought you up from the land of Egypt, And I led you in the wilderness forty years That you might take possession of the land of the Amorite.

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:2:12" @But you made the Nazirites drink wine, And you commanded the prophets saying, 'You shall not prophesy!'

nasb@Amos:2:13" @Behold, I am weighted down beneath you As a wagon is weighted down when filled with sheaves.

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:2:2" @ You only have I chosen among all the families of the earth; Therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities."

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:2:9 @Proclaim on the citadels in Ashdod and on the citadels in the land of Egypt and say, "Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria and see the great tumults within her and the oppressions in her midst.

nasb@Amos:2:11 @Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, "An enemy, even one surrounding the land, Will pull down your strength from you And your citadels will be looted."

nasb@Amos:3:1 @Hear this word, you cows of Bashan who are on the mountain of Samaria, Who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, Who say to your husbands, "Bring now, that we may drink!"

nasb@Amos:3:2 @The Lord GOD has sworn by His holiness, "Behold, the days are coming upon you When they will take you away with meat hooks, And the last of you with fish hooks.

nasb@Amos:3:3" @You will go out through breaches in the walls, Each one straight before her, And you will be cast to Harmon," declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:3:4" @Enter Bethel and transgress; In Gilgal multiply transgression! Bring your sacrifices every morning, Your tithes every three days.

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:3:7" @Furthermore, I withheld the rain from you While there were still three months until harvest. Then I would send rain on one city And on another city I would not send rain; One part would be rained on, While the part not rained on would dry up.

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:3:9" @I smote you with scorching wind and mildew; And the caterpillar was devouring Your many gardens and vineyards, fig trees and olive trees; Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:3:10" @I sent a plague among you after the manner of Egypt; I slew your young men by the sword along with your captured horses, And I made the stench of your camp rise up in your nostrils; 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:3:12" @Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel; Because I will do this to you, Prepare to meet your God, O Israel."

nasb@Amos:4:1 @Hear this word which I take up for you as a dirge, O house of Israel-

nasb@Amos:4:4 @For thus says the LORD to the house of Israel, " Seek Me that you may live.

nasb@Amos:4:6" @ Seek the LORD that you may live, Or He will break forth like a fire, O house of Joseph, And it will consume with none to quench it for Bethel,

nasb@Amos:4:11 @Therefore because you impose heavy rent on the poor And exact a tribute of grain from them, Though you have built houses of well-hewn stone, Yet you will not live in them; You have planted pleasant vineyards, yet you will not drink their wine.

nasb@Amos:4:12 @For I know your transgressions are many and your sins are great, You who distress the righteous and accept bribes And turn aside the poor in the gate.

nasb@Amos:4:14 @Seek good and not evil, that you may live; And thus may the LORD God of hosts be with you, Just as you have said!

nasb@Amos:4:17" @And in all the vineyards there is wailing, Because I will pass through the midst of you," says the LORD.

nasb@Amos:4:18 @Alas, you who are longing for the day of the LORD, For what purpose will the day of the LORD be to you? It will be darkness and not light;

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

nasb@Amos:4:22" @Even though you offer up to Me burnt offerings and your grain offerings, I will not accept them; And I will not even look at the peace offerings of your fatlings.

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:4:25" @ Did you present Me with sacrifices and grain offerings in the wilderness for forty years, O house of Israel?

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:4:27" @Therefore, I will make you go into exile beyond Damascus," says the LORD, whose name is the God of hosts.

nasb@Amos:5:2 @Go over to Calneh and look, And go from there to Hamath the great, Then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than these kingdoms, Or is their territory greater than yours?

nasb@Amos:5:3 @Do you put off the day of calamity, And would you bring near the seat of violence?

nasb@Amos:5:10 @Then one's uncle, or his undertaker, will lift him up to carry out his bones from the house, and he will say to the one who is in the innermost part of the house, "Is anyone else with you?" And that one will say, "No one." Then he will answer, " Keep quiet. For the name of the LORD is not to be mentioned."

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:5:13 @You who rejoice in Lodebar, And say, "Have we not by our own strength taken Karnaim for ourselves?"

nasb@Amos:5:14" @For behold, I am going to raise up a nation against you, O house of Israel," declares the LORD God of hosts, "And they will afflict you from the entrance of Hamath To the brook of the Arabah."

nasb@Amos:6:8 @The LORD said to me, " What do you see, Amos?" And I said, "A plumb line." Then the Lord said, "Behold I am about to put a plumb line In the midst of My people Israel. I will spare them no longer.

nasb@Amos:6:10 @Then Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent word to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, "Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is unable to endure all his words.

nasb@Amos:6:12 @Then Amaziah said to Amos, " Go, you seer, flee away to the land of Judah and there eat bread and there do your prophesying!

nasb@Amos:6:16" @Now hear the word of the LORD- you are saying, 'You shall not prophesy against Israel nor shall you speak against the house of Isaac.'

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:7:2 @He said, "What do you see, Amos?" And I said, "A basket of summer fruit." Then the LORD said to me, "The end has come for My people Israel. I will spare them no longer.

nasb@Amos:7:4 @Hear this, you who trample the needy, to do away with the humble of the land,

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:7:13" @In that day the beautiful virgins And the young men will faint from thirst.

nasb@Amos:7:14" @As for those who swear by the guilt of Samaria, Who say, 'As your god lives, O Dan,' And, 'As the way of Beersheba lives,' They will fall and not rise again."

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:7:15" @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:0:2" @Behold, I will make you small among the nations; You are greatly despised.

nasb@Obadiah:0:3" @The arrogance of your heart has deceived you, You who live in the clefts of the rock, In the loftiness of your dwelling place, Who say in your heart, ' Who will bring me down to earth?'

nasb@Obadiah:0:4" @Though you build high like the eagle, Though you set your nest among the stars, From there I will bring you down," declares the LORD.

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:0:7" @All the men allied with you Will send you forth to the border, And the men at peace with you Will deceive you and overpower you. They who eat your bread Will set an ambush for you. (There is no understanding in him.)

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:0:10" @Because of violence to your brother Jacob, You will be covered with shame, And you will be cut off forever.

nasb@Obadiah:0:11" @On the day that you stood aloof, On the day that strangers carried off his wealth, And foreigners entered his gate And cast lots for Jerusalem-- You too were as one of them.

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:0:13" @Do not enter the gate of My people In the day of their disaster. Yes, you, do not gloat over their calamity In the day of their disaster. And do not loot their wealth In the day of their disaster.

nasb@Obadiah:0:15" @For the day of the LORD draws near on all the nations. As you have done, it will be done to you. Your dealings will return on your own head.

nasb@Obadiah:0:16" @Because just as you drank on My holy mountain, All the nations will drink continually. They will drink and swallow And become as if they had never existed.

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:0:8 @Then they said to him, " Tell us, now! On whose account has this calamity struck us? What is your occupation? And where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?"

nasb@Jonah:0:10 @Then the men became extremely frightened and they said to him, "How could you do this?" For the men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.

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:0:12 @He said to them, "Pick me up and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will become calm for you, for I know that on account of me this great storm has come upon you."

nasb@Jonah:0:14 @Then they called on the LORD and said, "We earnestly pray, O LORD, do not let us perish on account of this man's life and do not put innocent blood on us; for You, O LORD, have done as You have pleased."

nasb@Jonah:1:2 @and he said, "I called out of my distress to the LORD, And He answered me. I cried for help from the depth of Sheol; You heard my voice.

nasb@Jonah:1:3" @For You had cast me into the deep, Into the heart of the seas, And the current engulfed me. All Your breakers and billows passed over me.

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:1:6" @I descended to the roots of the mountains. The earth with its bars was around me forever, But You have brought up my life from the pit, O LORD my God.

nasb@Jonah:1:7" @While I was fainting away, I remembered the LORD, And my prayer came to You, Into Your holy temple.

nasb@Jonah:1:9 @But I will sacrifice to You With the voice of thanksgiving. That which I have vowed I will pay. Salvation is from the LORD."

nasb@Jonah:1:2" @Arise, go to Nineveh the great city and proclaim to it the proclamation which I am going to tell you."

nasb@Jonah:2:2 @He prayed to the LORD and said, "Please LORD, was not this what I said while I was still in my own country? Therefore in order to forestall this I fled to Tarshish, for I knew that You are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, and one who relents concerning calamity.

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

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:2:10 @Then the LORD said, "You had compassion on the plant for which you did not work and which you did not cause to grow, which came up overnight and perished overnight.

nasb@Micah:1:2 @Hear, O peoples, all of you; Listen, O earth and all it contains, And let the Lord GOD be a witness against you, The Lord from His holy temple.

nasb@Micah:1:16 @Make yourself bald and cut off your hair, Because of the children of your delight; Extend your baldness like the eagle, For they will go from you into exile.

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@Micah:3:8 @He has told you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justice, to love kindness, And to walk humbly with your God?

nasb@Micah:3:9 @The voice of the LORD will call to the city-- And it is sound wisdom to fear Your name- "Hear, O tribe. Who has appointed its time?

nasb@Micah:3:14" @You will eat, but you will not be satisfied, And your vileness will be in your midst. You will try to remove for safekeeping, But you will not preserve anything, And what you do preserve I will give to the sword.

nasb@Micah:3:15" @You will sow but you will not reap. You will tread the olive but will not anoint yourself with oil; And the grapes, but you will not drink wine.

nasb@Micah:3:16" @The statutes of Omri And all the works of the house of Ahab are observed; And in their devices you walk. Therefore I will give you up for destruction And your inhabitants for derision, And you will bear the reproach of My people."

nasb@Micah:4:11 @It will be a day for building your walls. On that day will your boundary be extended.

nasb@Micah:4:12 @It will be a day when they will come to you From Assyria and the cities of Egypt, From Egypt even to the Euphrates, Even from sea to sea and mountain to mountain.

nasb@Micah:4:14 @Shepherd Your people with Your scepter, The flock of Your possession Which dwells by itself in the woodland, In the midst of a fruitful field. Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead As in the days of old.

nasb@Micah:4:15" @As in the days when you came out from the land of Egypt, I will show you miracles."

nasb@Micah:4:17 @They will lick the dust like a serpent, Like reptiles of the earth. They will come trembling out of their fortresses; To the LORD our God they will come in dread And they will be afraid before You.

nasb@Micah:4:18 @Who is a God like You, who pardons iniquity And passes over the rebellious act of the remnant of His possession? He does not retain His anger forever, Because He delights in unchanging love.

nasb@Micah:4:19 @He will again have compassion on us; He will tread our iniquities under foot. Yes, You will cast all their sins Into the depths of the sea.

nasb@Habakkuk:2:7" @Will not your creditors rise up suddenly, And those who collect from you awaken? Indeed, you will become plunder for them.

nasb@Habakkuk:3:12 @In indignation You marched through the earth; In anger You trampled the nations.

nasb@Zechariah:9:12 @I said to them, "If it is good in your sight, give me my wages; but if not, never mind!" So they weighed out thirty shekels of silver as my wages.

nasb@Zechariah:9:15 @The LORD said to me, "Take again for yourself the equipment of a foolish shepherd.

nasb@Zechariah:9:3" @And if anyone still prophesies, then his father and mother who gave birth to him will say to him, 'You shall not live, for you have spoken falsely in the name of the LORD'; and his father and mother who gave birth to him will pierce him through when he prophesies.

nasb@Zechariah:9:5 @but he will say, 'I am not a prophet; I am a tiller of the ground, for a man sold me as a slave in my youth.'

nasb@Zechariah:9:6" @And one will say to him, 'What are these wounds between your arms?' Then he will say, 'Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.'

nasb@Zechariah:10:1 @Behold, a day is coming for the LORD when the spoil taken from you will be divided among you.

nasb@Zechariah:10:5 @You will flee by the valley of My mountains, for the valley of the mountains will reach to Azel; yes, you will flee just as you fled before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah. Then the LORD, my God, will come, and all the holy ones with Him!

nasb@Malachi:0:2" @I have loved you," says the LORD. But you say, "How have You loved us?" "Was not Esau Jacob's brother?" declares the LORD. "Yet I have loved Jacob;

nasb@Malachi:0:5 @Your eyes will see this and you will say, " The LORD be magnified beyond the border of Israel!"

nasb@Malachi:0:6" @ 'A son honors his father, and a servant his master. Then if I am a father, where is My honor? And if I am a master, where is My respect?' says the LORD of hosts to you, O priests who despise My name. But you say, 'How have we despised Your name?'

nasb@Malachi:0:7" @You are presenting defiled food upon My altar. But you say, 'How have we defiled You?' In that you say, 'The table of the LORD is to be despised.'

nasb@Malachi:0:8" @But when you present the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? And when you present the lame and sick, is it not evil? Why not offer it to your governor? Would he be pleased with you? Or would he receive you kindly?" says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:9" @But now will you not entreat God's favor, that He may be gracious to us? With such an offering on your part, will He receive any of you kindly?" says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:10" @Oh that there were one among you who would shut the gates, that you might not uselessly kindle fire on My altar! I am not pleased with you," says the LORD of hosts, " nor will I accept an offering from you.

nasb@Malachi:0:12" @But you are profaning it, in that you say, 'The table of the Lord is defiled, and as for its fruit, its food is to be despised.'

nasb@Malachi:0:13" @You also say, 'My, how tiresome it is!' And you disdainfully sniff at it," says the LORD of hosts, "and you bring what was taken by robbery and what is lame or sick; so you bring the offering! Should I receive that from your hand?" says the LORD.

nasb@Malachi:0:2" @And now this commandment is for you, O priests.

nasb@Malachi:0:2" @If you do not listen, and if you do not take it to heart to give honor to My name," says the LORD of hosts, "then I will send the curse upon you and I will curse your blessings; and indeed, I have cursed them already, because you are not taking it to heart.

nasb@Malachi:0:3" @Behold, I am going to rebuke your offspring, and I will spread refuse on your faces, the refuse of your feasts; and you will be taken away with it.

nasb@Malachi:0:4" @Then you will know that I have sent this commandment to you, that My covenant may continue with Levi," says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:8" @But as for you, you have turned aside from the way; you have caused many to stumble by the instruction; you have corrupted the covenant of Levi," says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:9" @So I also have made you despised and abased before all the people, just as you are not keeping My ways but are showing partiality in the instruction.

nasb@Malachi:0:13" @This is another thing you do- you cover the altar of the LORD with tears, with weeping and with groaning, because He no longer regards the offering or accepts it with favor from your hand.

nasb@Malachi:0:14" @Yet you say, 'For what reason?' Because the LORD has been a witness between you and the wife of your youth, against whom you have dealt treacherously, though she is your companion and your wife by covenant.

nasb@Malachi:0:15" @But not one has done so who has a remnant of the Spirit. And what did that one do while he was seeking a godly offspring? Take heed then to your spirit, and let no one deal treacherously against the wife of your youth.

nasb@Malachi:0:16" @For I hate divorce," says the LORD, the God of Israel, "and him who covers his garment with wrong," says the LORD of hosts. "So take heed to your spirit, that you do not deal treacherously."

nasb@Malachi:0:17 @You have wearied the LORD with your words. Yet you say, "How have we wearied HimNULL" In that you say, " Everyone who does evil is good in the sight of the LORD, and He delights in them," or, " Where is the God of justiceNULL"

nasb@Malachi:0:3" @ Behold, I am going to send My messenger, and he will clear the way before Me. And the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple; and the messenger of the covenant, in whom you delight, behold, He is coming," says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:5" @Then I will draw near to you for judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers and against the adulterers and against those who swear falsely, and against those who oppress the wage earner in his wages, the widow and the orphan, and those who turn aside the alien and do not fear Me," says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:6" @For I, the LORD, do not change; therefore you, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed.

nasb@Malachi:0:7" @From the days of your fathers you have turned aside from My statutes and have not kept them. Return to Me, and I will return to you," says the LORD of hosts. "But you say, 'How shall we return?'

nasb@Malachi:0:8" @Will a man rob God? Yet you are robbing Me! But you say, 'How have we robbed You?' In tithes and offerings.

nasb@Malachi:0:9" @You are cursed with a curse, for you are robbing Me, the whole nation of you!

nasb@Malachi:0:10" @ Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, so that there may be food in My house, and test Me now in this," says the LORD of hosts, "if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.

nasb@Malachi:0:11" @Then I will rebuke the devourer for you, so that it will not destroy the fruits of the ground; nor will your vine in the field cast its grapes," says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:12" @ All the nations will call you blessed, for you shall be a delightful land," says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:13" @Your words have been arrogant against Me," says the LORD. "Yet you say, 'What have we spoken against You?'

nasb@Malachi:0:14" @You have said, 'It is vain to serve God; and what profit is it that we have kept His charge, and that we have walked in mourning before the LORD of hosts?

nasb@Malachi:0:18 @So you will again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him.

nasb@Malachi:0:2" @But for you who fear My name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings; and you will go forth and skip about like calves from the stall.

nasb@Malachi:0:3" @You will tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet on the day which I am preparing," says the LORD of hosts.

nasb@Malachi:0:5" @Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD.
