lesserot@Isaiah:5:2 @ And he fenced it in, and cleared it of stones, and planted it with the choicest vines, and built a tower in its midst, and also a winepress he hewed out therein: and he hoped that it should bring forth grapes, and it brought forth worthless fruit.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:20 @ Woe unto those that say of the evil it is good, and of the good it is evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:21 @ Woe unto those that are wise in their own eyes, and intelligent in their own esteem!

lesserot@Isaiah:5:22 @ Woe unto those that are heroes to drink wine, and men of might to mingle strong drink;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:24 @ Therefore as the tongue of the fire devoureth the stubble, and dry hay sinketh before the flame: so shall their root be as rotten things, and their blossom shall fly up as the dust; because they have despised the law of the Lord of hosts, and the word of the Holy One of Israel they have rejected.

lesserot@Isaiah:5:26 @ And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from afar, and will call for one of them from the end of the earth; and, behold, with speed, swiftly, it cometh;

lesserot@Isaiah:5:29 @ It hath a roar like the lioness, it roareth like the young lions: yea, it growleth, and layeth hold of the prey, and carrieth it safely off, with none to deliver.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:2 @ And it was told unto the house of David, saying, Syria is encamped with Ephraim; and his heart trembled, with the heart of his people, as the trees of the forest are shaken before the wind.

lesserot@Isaiah:7:3 @ And the Lord said unto Isaiah, Go forth now to meet Achaz, thou with Shear–yashub thy son, to the end of the aqueduct of the upper pool, on the highway of the washer’s field;

lesserot@Isaiah:7:4 @ And thou shalt say unto him, Take heed, and be quiet; fear not, and let thy heart not become faint because of these two stumps of smoking firebrands, before the fierce anger of Rezin with Syria, and of the son of Remalyahu.

lesserot@Isaiah:13:22 @ And jackals shall howl in her palaces, and monsters in the temples of pleasure; and near to come is her time, and her days shall not be extended.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:1 @ For the Lord will have mercy on Jacob, and will again make choice of Israel, and replace them in their own land: and the strangers shall be joined unto them, and they shall attach themselves to the house of Jacob.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:2 @ And nations shall take them, and bring them to their own place; but the house of Israel shall obtain possession of them in the land of the Lord for men–servants and for maid–servants; and they shall take captive their captors, and they shall rule over their oppressors.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:3 @ And it shall come to pass on the day when the Lord will give thee rest from thy trouble, and from thy vexation, and from the hard bondage wherein thou wast made to serve,

lesserot@Isaiah:14:7 @ At rest, quiet is all the earth; men break forth into loud song.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:9 @ The nether world from below is in motion concerning thee to meet thee at thy coming: it stirreth up the departed for thee, all the chief ones of the earth; it hath caused to rise up from their thrones all the kings of nations.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:10 @ They all will commence and say unto thee, "Thou––thou also art become weak like us; similar unto us art thou become!"

lesserot@Isaiah:14:11 @ Into the nether world is brought down thy pride, the clatter of thy psalteries: beneath thee is spread the worm, and thy cover is the moth.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:12 @ How art thou fallen from heaven, O morning–star, son of the dawn! how art thou hewn down to the ground, crusher of nations!

lesserot@Isaiah:14:13 @ And thou––thou hadst said in thy heart, "Into heaven will I ascend, above the stars of God will I exalt my throne; and I will sit also upon the mount of the assembly, in the farthest end of the north;

lesserot@Isaiah:14:14 @ I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be equal to the Most High."

lesserot@Isaiah:14:15 @ But into the nether world shalt thou be brought down, into the lowest depth.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:16 @ They that see thee will gaze at thee, will regard thee well, "Is this the man that caused the earth to tremble, that made kingdoms quake?

lesserot@Isaiah:14:19 @ But thou––thou art cast out of thy grave like a discarded offshoot, as a garment of those that are slain, pierced by the sword, that go down to the stones of the pit, as a carcass trodden under foot.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:20 @ Thou shalt not be united with them in burial; because thy land hast thou destroyed, thy people hast thou slain: to eternity shall not be called the seed of evil–doers.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:24 @ Sworn hath the Lord of hosts, saying, Surely as I have purposed, so doth it come to pass; and as I have resolved, so shall it occur:

lesserot@Isaiah:14:25 @ To break Asshur in my own land, and upon my mountains will I tread him under foot; then shall his yoke be removed from off them, and his burden from off their shoulders.

lesserot@Isaiah:14:31 @ Wail, O gate; cry out, O city; thou art dissolved, O thou entire Palestine; for from the north a smoke is coming, and there is no one solitary among those that are bidden to come.

lesserot@Isaiah:15:2 @ It goeth up to the house, and Dibon up to the high–places to weep, on Nebo and on Medeba shall Moab wail: on all its heads there is baldness, and every beard is hewn off.

lesserot@Isaiah:15:5 @ My heart will cry for Moab, whose fugitives are as far as Zo’ar, the third ‘Eglarth; for the ascent of Luchith––with weeping is it ascended; for on the way to Choronayim they let resound the cry of defeat.

lesserot@Isaiah:15:8 @ For the cry hath encompassed the boundary of Moab; up to Eglayim its wail, and at Beer–elim its wail.

lesserot@Isaiah:16:1 @ Send ye the lambs of the ruler of the land from Sela’, through the wilderness, unto the mount of the daughter of Zion.

lesserot@Isaiah:16:4 @ Let my outcasts sojourn with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the waster: till ceaseth the extortion, past be the wasting, and vanished be the oppressor out of the land.

lesserot@Isaiah:16:8 @ For the fields of Cheshbon are withered, the vine of Sibmah ––the lords of nations have beaten down its branches, they did reach as far as Ya’zer, into the wilderness did they wander; its tendrils were stretched forth, they passed over the sea.

lesserot@Isaiah:16:10 @ And are taken away joy and gladness out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards shall be no singing, shall be no joyful shout: in the presses shall the treader not tread out wine; I have stopped the harvest–call.

lesserot@Isaiah:16:12 @ And it shall come to pass, that it shall be seen that Moab is weary on the high–places; and he will come to his sanctuary to pray; but he shall not accomplish.

lesserot@Isaiah:17:2 @ Forsaken are the cities of ‘Aro’er: they shall be to flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make them afraid.

lesserot@Isaiah:17:4 @ And it shall come to pass on that day, that the glory of Jacob shall vanish, and the fatness of his flesh shall become lean.

lesserot@Isaiah:17:6 @ And there shall be left on it gleaning–fruit, as one shaketh an olive–tree, two or three berries on the top of the uppermost bough, four or five on the outmost branches of a fruitful tree, saith the Lord the God of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:17:7 @ On that day shall a man turn his regard up to his Maker, and his eyes shall look toward the Holy One of Israel.

lesserot@Isaiah:17:8 @ And he shall not turn his regard to the altars, the work of his hands; and he shall not look at what his fingers have made, both the groves and the sun–images.

lesserot@Isaiah:17:11 @ on the day that thou plantedst thou causedst to grow, and in the morning thou madest thy seed to blossom; but now fleeth the harvest on the day of disease and of incurable pain.

lesserot@Isaiah:17:12 @ Woe to the raging of many people, who rage like the raging of the seas; and to the noise of nations, that make a noise like the roar of mighty waters!

lesserot@Isaiah:18:1 @ Woe to the land with spreading wings, which is beyond the rivers of Cush,

lesserot@Isaiah:18:2 @ That sendeth on the sea ambassadors, and in vessels of bulrushes messengers over the face of the waters. Go, ye swift messengers, to a nation pulled and torn, to a people terrible from their beginning and onward; a nation meted out and trodden down, whose land the rivers have spoiled!

lesserot@Isaiah:18:4 @ For so hath said the Lord unto me, I will take my rest, and I will look down on my dwelling–place like a clear heat upon herbs, and like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest.

lesserot@Isaiah:18:6 @ They shall be left together unto the birds of prey of the mountains, and to the beasts of the earth: and the birds of prey shall summer upon them, and all the beasts of the earth shall winter upon them.

lesserot@Isaiah:18:7 @ At that time shall be brought as a present unto the Lord of hosts a people pulled and torn, and a people terrible from their beginning and onward; a nation meted out and trodden under foot, whose land the rivers have spoiled, to the place of the name of the Lord of hosts, the mount Zion.

lesserot@Isaiah:19:1 @ The doom of Egypt. Behold, the Lord rideth upon a swift cloud, and is coming to Egypt: and the idols of Egypt shall be moved because of his presence, and the heart of Egypt shall melt in its inward parts.

lesserot@Isaiah:19:4 @ And I will surrender the Egyptians into the hand of a cruel lord; and a rigorous king shall rule over them, saith the Lord, the Eternal of hosts.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:12 @ But Rabshakeh said, Hath my master then sent me to thy master and to thee to speak these words? is it not rather to the men who sit upon the wall, that they may eat their own excrements, and drink their own urine with you?

lesserot@Isaiah:36:13 @ Then stood Rabshakeh up, and called out in a loud voice in the Jewish language, and said, Hear ye the words of the great king, the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:14 @ Thus hath said the king, Let not Hezekiah deceive you; for he will not be able to deliver you;

lesserot@Isaiah:36:15 @ Neither let Hezekiah induce you to trust in the Lord, saying, The Lord will surely deliver us; this city shall not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:16 @ Hearken not to Hezekiah; for thus hath said the king of Assyria, Make a treaty of peace with me, and come out to me; and eat ye every one of his vine, and every one of his fig–tree, and drink ye every one the waters of his cistern;

lesserot@Isaiah:36:17 @ Until I come and take you away to a land like your own land, a land of corn and wine, a land of bread and vineyards.

lesserot@Isaiah:36:22 @ Then came Elyakim the son of Chilkiyahu, that was superintendent over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and Yoach the son of Assaph, the recorder, to Hezekiah with their clothes rent; and they told him the words of Rabshakeh.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:2 @ And he sent Elyakim, who was superintendent over the house, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:3 @ And they said unto him, Thus hath said Hezekiah, A day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of derision is this day; for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:4 @ Perhaps the Lord thy God will hear the words of Rabshakeh, whom the king of Assyria his master hath sent to blaspheme the living God, and who hath reproached with the words which the Lord thy God hath heard: wherefore lift up a prayer for the remnant that is still found here.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:5 @ And the servants of king Hezekiah came to Isaiah.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:6 @ And Isaiah said unto them, Thus shall ye say unto your master, Thus hath said the Lord, Be not afraid because of the words which thou hast heard, with which the boys of the king of Assyria have blasphemed me.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:7 @ Behold, I will put an spirit in him, and when he will hear a rumor, he shall return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:9 @ And he heard it said of Thirhakah the king of Ethiopia, He is come out to fight with thee. And when he had heard it, he sent messengers to Hezekiah, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:37:10 @ Thus shall ye say to Hezekiah the king of Judah, as followeth, Let not thy God, in whom thou trustest, deceive thee, saying, Jerusalem shall not be given up into the hand of the king of Assyria.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:11 @ Behold, thou thyself hast heard what the kings of Assyria have done to all the lands by destroying them utterly: and thou alone shouldst be delivered?

lesserot@Isaiah:37:14 @ And Hezekiah took the letter out of the hand of the messengers, and read it: and Hezekiah went up unto the house of the Lord, and spread it out before the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:15 @ And Hezekiah prayed unto the Lord, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:37:17 @ Bend down, O Lord, thy ear, and hear; open, O Lord, thy eye, and see: and hear all the words of Sennacherib, which he hath sent to blaspheme the living God.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:19 @ And they have placed their gods into the fire; for they are no gods, but the work of man’s hands, wood and stone; and these have they destroyed.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:21 @ Then sent Isaiah the son of Amoz unto Hezekiah, saying, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Whereas thou hast prayed to me concerning Sennacherib the king of Assyria:

lesserot@Isaiah:37:22 @ This is the word that the Lord hath spoken over him: She despiseth thee, she laugheth thee to scorn, the virgin daughter of Zion; behind she shaketh her head, the daughter of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:24 @ Through thy servants hast thou blasphemed the Lord, and hast said, With the multitude of my chariots am I indeed come up to the height of the mountains, to the sides of Lebanon; and I will cut down its tall cedars, the choice of its fir–trees: and I will enter into the height of its summit, the forest of its fruitful soil.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:26 @ Hadst thou not heard, that in distant ages I had prepared this? in the times of antiquity when I formed it? now have I brought it along, and it came to pass to desolate into ruinous heaps fortified cities.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:27 @ And thus their inhabitants were of short power, they were discouraged and confounded: they were as the herbs of the field, and as the green grass; as the moss on the housetops, and as corn blasted before the ear appeareth.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:29 @ Because of thy raging against me, and thy tumult, that is come up into my ears, will I put my hook in thy nose, and my bridle between thy lips, and I will cause thee to turn back on the way by which thou camest.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:30 @ And this shall be unto thee the sign, Ye shall eat this year what groweth of itself, and in the second year what springeth after the same; and in the third year sow, and reap, and plant vineyards, and eat their fruit.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:33 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning the king of Assyria, He shall not come into this city, and he shall not shoot an arrow thereon, nor come before it with shields, nor cast up an embankment against it.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:34 @ On the way by which he came, by the same shall he return, and into this city shall he not come, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:35 @ And I will shield this city to save it for my own sake, and for the sake of David my servant.

lesserot@Isaiah:37:38 @ And it came to pass, as he was prostrating himself in the house of Nisroch his god, that Adrammelech and Sharezer his sons smote him with the sword; and they escaped into the land of Ararat. And Essar–chaddon his son became king in his stead.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:1 @ In those days Hezekiah fell sick unto death; and there came unto him Isaiah the son of Amoz, the prophet, and said unto him, Thus hath said the Lord, Give thy charge to thy house; for thou shalt die, and not live.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:2 @ Then did Hezekiah turn his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:4 @ Then came the word of the Lord to Isaiah, saying,

lesserot@Isaiah:38:5 @ Go, and say to Hezekiah, Thus hath said the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will add unto thy days fifteen years.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:7 @ And this shall be unto thee the sign from the Lord, that the Lord will do this thing which he hath spoken:

lesserot@Isaiah:38:8 @ Behold, I will cause the shadow of the degrees, which is gone down on the dial of Achaz by the sun, to return backward ten degrees. So the sun returned ten degrees, by the degrees which he was gone down.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:15 @ What shall I speak? he hath promised it unto me, and he hath also accomplished it; I will make pilgrimages all my years because of the bitterness of my soul.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:16 @ O Lord, by these will live, and in all these is the life of my spirit: so wilt thou give me health, and cause me to live.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:18 @ For the nether world will not thank thee, death will not praise thee: they that go down into the pit will not hope for thy truth.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:19 @ The living, the living alone shall thank thee, like me this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.

lesserot@Isaiah:38:20 @ The Lord is there to help me; therefore we will play my hymns all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:1 @ At that time sent Merodach–baladan, the son of Baladan, the king of Babylon, letters and a present to Hezekiah; for he had heard that he had been sick, and was become strong again.

lesserot@Isaiah:39:3 @ Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What did these men say? and whence did they come unto thee? And Hezekiah said, From a far–off country are they come unto me, from Babylon.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:14 @ Assemble yourselves, all of you, and hear: Who among them hath told these things? He whom the Lord loveth, will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm the Chaldeans.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:16 @ Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; never from the beginning have I spoken in secret; from the time that it occurred, was I there. And now the Lord Eternal hath sent me, and his Spirit.

lesserot@Isaiah:48:18 @ Oh that thou hadst but listened to my commandments! then would have been as a river thy peace, and thy prosperity as the waves of the sea:

lesserot@Isaiah:48:22 @ There is no peace, saith the Lord, unto the wicked.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:1 @ Hearken, O isles, unto me; and listen, ye people, from afar: The Lord hath called me from my birth; from my mother’s womb hath he made mention of my name.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:3 @ And said unto me, My servant art thou, O Israel, thou on whom I will be glorified.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:5 @ And now hath said the Lord that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, that Israel may be gathered unto him, that I should be honored in the eyes of the Lord, while my God was my strength,––

lesserot@Isaiah:49:6 @ And he said, It is too light a thing that thou shouldst be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to bring back the preserved of Israel! but I will appoint thee for a light to the nations, that my salvation may reach as far as the end of the earth.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:7 @ Thus hath said the Lord, the Redeemer of Israel, his Holy One, to him who is despised by men, to him who is abhorred by nations, to the servant of rulers, Kings shall see it and rise up, princes, and they shall prostrate themselves, for the sake of the Lord, who is faithful, the Holy One of Israel, who hath made choice of thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:8 @ Thus hath said the Lord, In the time of favor have I answered thee, and on the day of salvation have I helped thee; and I will preserve thee, and I will appoint thee as a people of my covenant to raise up the land, to divide out desolate heritages;

lesserot@Isaiah:49:9 @ When I say to the prisoners, Go forth; to those that are in darkness, Show yourselves. On the roads shall they feed, and on all mountain–peaks shall be their pasture.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:11 @ And I will change all my mountains into a road, and my highways shall be lifted up.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:13 @ Sing, O heavens; and be joyful, O earth; and break forth, O mountains, into song; for the Lord hath comforted his people, and upon his oppressed will he have mercy.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:15 @ Can a woman forget her sucking child, not to have mercy on the son of her body? yea, should these even forget, yet would I not forget thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:23 @ And kings shall be thy nursing–fathers, and their princesses thy nursing–mothers; with the face toward the earth shall they bow down to thee, and the dust of thy feet shall they lick up: and thou shalt know that I am the Lord, who will not suffer those who hope in me to be ashamed.

lesserot@Isaiah:49:24 @ Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or shall the captive of the victor escape?

lesserot@Isaiah:50:1 @ Thus hath said the Lord, Where is your mother’s bill of divorcement, wherewith I have sent her away? or who of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? behold, for your iniquities were ye sold, and for your transgressions was your mother sent away.

lesserot@Isaiah:50:2 @ Why did I come and no man was there, did I call, with none to answer? hath my hand become too short for redeeming? or is there no power in me to deliver? behold, through my threatening I can dry up the sea, I can change the rivers into a wilderness: their fish stink for want of water, and die for thirst.

lesserot@Isaiah:50:4 @ The Lord Eternal hath given me a tongue for teaching, that I should know how to strengthen the weary with the word: he wakeneth morning by morning, he wakeneth my ear to listen like those who are well taught.

lesserot@Isaiah:50:6 @ My back I gave up to the smiters, and my cheeks to those that plucked off the hair: my face I hid not from abuse and spitting.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:1 @ Hearken to me, ye that pursue righteousness, that seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence ye were hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye were dug up.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:2 @ Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bore you; for he was one when I called him, and I blessed him, and I increased him.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:4 @ Listen unto me, my people; and O my nation, give ear unto me; for a law shall proceed from me, and my justice will I establish as a light of the people.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:6 @ Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath; for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wear out like a garment, and they that dwell thereon shall die in like manner; but my salvation shall exist for ever, and my righteousness shall not be delayed.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:7 @ Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, O people in whose heart my law is: ye must not fear the reproach of men, and of their revilings shall ye not be in dread.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:16 @ And I have placed my words in thy mouth, and with the shadow of my hand have I covered thee: to plant the heavens, and to lay the foundations of the earth, and to say to Zion, Thou art my people.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:18 @ There is none to lead her, from all the children whom she hath born; and there is none that taketh her by the hand, from all the children whom she hath brought up.

lesserot@Isaiah:51:23 @ And I will place it in the hand of those who have tortured thee, that have said to thy soul, Bend thee down, that we may pass over; and thou madest like the earth thy back, and like the street for those that passed over.

lesserot@Isaiah:52:1 @ Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion; put on thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem, thou holy city; for no more shall enter into thee henceforth the uncircumcised and the unclean.

lesserot@Isaiah:52:4 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Into Egypt went my people down aforetimes, to sojourn there, and Asshur hath oppressed it without cause.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:5 @ Yet he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement for our peace was upon him; and through his bruises was healing granted to us.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:6 @ We all like sheep went astray; every one to his own way did we turn; and the Lord let befall him the guilt of us all.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:7 @ He was oppressed, and he was also taunted, yet he opened not his mouth; like the lamb which is led to the slaughter, and like an ewe before her shearers is dumb; and he opened not his mouth.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:10 @ But the Lord was pleased to crush him through disease: when his soul hath brought the trespass–offering, then shall he see seed, live many days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:11 @ from the trouble of his soul shall he see and be satisfied: through his knowledge shall my righteous servant bring the many to righteousness, while he will bear their iniquities.

lesserot@Isaiah:53:12 @ Therefore will I divide him with the many, and with the strong shall he divide the spoil; because he poured out his soul unto death, and with transgressors was he numbered: while he bore the sin of many, and for the transgressors he let befall him.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:9 @ For as the waters of Noah is this unto me; as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more pass over the earth: so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:11 @ O thou afflicted, tossed by the tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colors, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.

lesserot@Isaiah:54:12 @ And I will make of rubies thy battlements, and thy gates into carbuncle–stones, and all thy borders into precious stones.

lesserot@Isaiah:55:10 @ For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and return not thither, but water the earth, and render it fruitful, and cause it to bring forth plants; and give seed to the sower and bread to him that eateth:

lesserot@Isaiah:55:11 @ So shall ever be my word which goeth forth from my mouth, it shall not return unto me without effect; but it accomplisheth what I desire, and it prospereth in that whereto I have sent it.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:3 @ And let not say the son of the stranger, that joineth himself unto the Lord, saying, Surely the Lord will exclude me from his people; nor let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:5 @ I will indeed give unto them in my house and within my walls a place and a name, better than sons and daughters: an everlasting name will I give them, that shall not be cut off.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:6 @ Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves unto the Lord, to serve him, and to love the name of the Lord, to be unto him as servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath by not violating it, and those who take hold of my covenant:

lesserot@Isaiah:56:7 @ Even these will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt–offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon my altar; for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all the nations.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:8 @ Thus saith the Lord Eternal who gathereth the outcasts of Israel, I will yet gather to him, beside his own gathered.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:9 @ All ye beasts of the field, come to devour, all ye beasts in the forest.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:10 @ His watchmen are all of them blind, they know nothing; they all are dumb dogs, they cannot bark; dreamers, lying down, loving to slumber.

lesserot@Isaiah:56:11 @ But the dogs are of a greedy disposition, they know not how to be satisfied; and those are shepherds that know how to understand: they all turn to their own way, every one after his gain, from all quarters.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:6 @ Of the smooth stones of the valley is thy portion; they, they are thy lot: even to them hast thou poured out a drink–offering, hast thou offered a meat–offering. Shall I for these things repent me?

lesserot@Isaiah:57:7 @ Upon a high and lofty mountain hast thou placed thy couch: even thither wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:9 @ And thou didst show thyself unto the king without ointment, and thou didst multiply thy perfumes, and thou didst send out thy messengers even into the far–off distance, and didst debase thyself even down to the nether world.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:11 @ And of whom hadst thou dread or fear, that thou becamest false, and didst not remember me, nor lay it to thy heart? is it not so? I kept silence, and this from earliest times, and therefore thou fearest me not!

lesserot@Isaiah:57:15 @ For thus hath said the high and lofty One, who inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy, In the high and holy place do I dwell, yet also with the contrite and humble of spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:16 @ For not to eternity will I contend, neither will I be for ever wroth: when the spirit from before me is overwhelmed, and the souls which I have made.

lesserot@Isaiah:57:17 @ Because of the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and I smote him, hiding my face, and was wroth: while he went on frowardly in the way of his own heart.

lesserot@Isaiah:58:1 @ Cry with a full throat, spare not, like the cornet lift up thy voice, and declare unto my people their transgression, and to the house of Jacob their sins.

lesserot@Isaiah:58:2 @ Yet me do they ever seek day by day, and to know my ways do they always desire; as a nation that hath done righteousness, and hath not forsaken the ordinance of their God: continually do they ask of me the ordinances of justice––do they desire to draw nigh unto God.

lesserot@Isaiah:58:4 @ Behold, for contention and strife do ye fast, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye fast not so at this day, to cause your voice to be heard on high.

lesserot@Isaiah:58:5 @ Is such then the fast which I can choose? a day that a man afflicteth his soul? to bend his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes for his couch? wilt thou call this a fast, and a day of acceptability unto the Lord?

lesserot@Isaiah:58:6 @ Is not this the fast that I will choose? to open the snares of wickedness, to undo the bands of the yoke, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye should break asunder every yoke?

lesserot@Isaiah:58:7 @ Is it not to distribute thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the afflicted poor into thy house! when thou seest the naked, that thou clothe him; and that thou hide not thyself from thy own flesh?

lesserot@Isaiah:58:10 @ And if thou pour out to the hungry thy soul, and satisfy the afflicted soul: then shall shine forth in the darkness thy light, and thy obscurity be as the noonday;

lesserot@Isaiah:58:12 @ And they that spring from thee shall build up the ancient ruins; the foundations of many generations shalt thou raise up again: and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breaches, The restorer of paths to the dwelling–place.

lesserot@Isaiah:58:14 @ Then shalt thou find delight in the Lord; and I will cause thee to tread upon the high places of the earth, and I will cause thee to enjoy the inheritance of Jacob thy father; for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

lesserot@Isaiah:59:1 @ Behold, the Lord’s hand is not too short to save; neither his ear too heavy for hearing;

lesserot@Isaiah:59:2 @ But your iniquities have ever made a separation between you and your God, and your sins have caused him to hide his face from you, so that he would not hear.

lesserot@Isaiah:59:3 @ For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity: your lips have spoken falsehood, your tongue uttereth deception.

lesserot@Isaiah:59:7 @ Their feet run to what is evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of wickedness; wasting and destruction are on their highways.

lesserot@Isaiah:59:8 @ The way of peace they know not; and there is no justice on their tracks: their paths they have made unto themselves crooked; whosoever walketh therein knoweth not peace.

lesserot@Isaiah:59:14 @ And justice is forced to turn backward, and righteousness standeth afar off; for truth stumbled in the street, and equity is not able to enter.

lesserot@Isaiah:59:18 @ According to the demerits, so will he repay, fury to his adversaries, recompense to his enemies; to the islands will he repay what they have merited.

lesserot@Isaiah:60:7 @ All the flocks of Kedar shall be assembled unto thee, the rams of Nebayoth shall minister unto thee: they shall come for a favorable acceptance upon my altar, and the house of my glory will I glorify.

lesserot@Isaiah:60:8 @ Who are these that fly like a cloud, and like the doves, to their windows?

lesserot@Isaiah:60:9 @ Yea, unto me the isles shall hasten, and the ships of Tharshish at first, to bring thy sons from afar, their silver and their gold with them, unto the name of the Lord thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel; because he hath glorified thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:60:10 @ And the sons of the stranger shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister unto thee; for in my wrath did I smite thee, but in my favor have I had mercy on thee.

lesserot@Isaiah:60:17 @ Instead of the copper will I bring gold, and instead of the iron will I bring silver, and instead of wood copper, and instead of the stones iron; and I will set peace as thy authorities, and righteousness as thy taskmasters.

lesserot@Isaiah:60:19 @ The sun shall not be unto thee any more for a light by day, and for brightness shall the moon not give light unto thee; but the Lord will be unto thee for a light of everlasting, and thy God as thy glory.

lesserot@Isaiah:60:20 @ Thy sun shall not go down any more, and thy moon shall not be withdrawn; for the Lord will be unto thee for a light of everlasting, and ended shall be the days of thy mourning,

lesserot@Isaiah:61:1 @ The Spirit of the Lord Eternal is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to announce good tidings unto the meek: he hath sent me to bind up the broken–hearted, to proclaim to captives Liberty, and to prisoners Release;

lesserot@Isaiah:61:2 @ To proclaim a year of favor of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all mourners;

lesserot@Isaiah:61:3 @ To grant unto the mourners of Zion,––to give unto them ornament in the place of ashes, oil of gladness in the place of mourning, garments of praise in the place of a grieved spirit; that they may be called, Oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified.

lesserot@Isaiah:65:1 @ I allowed myself to be sought by those that asked not; I let myself be found by those that sought me not: I said, Here am I, here am I, unto a nation that called itself not by my name.

lesserot@Isaiah:65:2 @ I spread out my hands all the time unto a rebellious people, that walk in the way which is not good, after their own thoughts;

lesserot@Isaiah:65:3 @ the people that provoke me to anger to my face continually; that sacrifice in gardens and burn incense upon brick,

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:23 @ I look at the earth, and, lo, it is without form and void; and toward the heavens, and their light is gone.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:29 @ From the noise of horsemen and those that shoot with the bow fleeth the whole city; they go into thickets, and climb up upon the rocks: every city is forsaken, and not a man dwelleth therein.

lesserot@Jeremiah:4:31 @ For a voice as of a woman in travail have I heard, the anguish as of one that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that groaneth, that spreadeth out her hands, "Woe is me now! for my soul succumbeth to the murderers."

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:5 @ I had better go unto the great men, and let me speak with them; for these surely know the way of the Lord, the ordinance of their God; but these altogether have broken the yoke, burst the bands.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:6 @ Therefore slayeth them the lion out of the forest, the wolf of the deserts wasteth them, the leopard lieth in wait against their cities: every one that cometh out thence shall be torn in pieces; because many are their transgressions, very numerous are their backslidings.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:7 @ How shall I for this pardon thee? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by those that are not gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlot’s house.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:13 @ And the prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them:" thus shall it be done unto them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:5:14 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord the God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth to be a fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:11 @ And I am full of the fury of the Lord; I am weary with sustaining it: pour it out over the child in the street, and over the assembly of young men together; for even the husband with the wife shall be seized, the aged with him that is full of days.

lesserot@Jeremiah:6:12 @ And their houses shall be transferred unto others, fields and wives together; for I will stretch out my hand over the inhabitants of the land, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:5 @ As a wrought–out palm–like column are they, and cannot speak; they must needs be borne, because they cannot step along. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do any harm, so also to do any good is not in them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:6 @ Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O Lord: thou art great, and great is thy name in might.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:7 @ Who would not fear thee, O King of the nations? for to thee doth it appertain; because among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their kingdoms, there is none like unto thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:8 @ But at once shall they be shown to be brutish and foolish: it is a doctrine of vanities, it concerneth but wood.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:11 @ Thus shall ye say unto them, The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, shall perish away from the earth, and from under these heavens.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:13 @ At the sound when he giveth a multitude of waters in the heavens, and causeth clouds to ascend from the ends of the earth; when he maketh lightnings with rain, and bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures:

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:19 @ Woe is me for my breach! my wound is painful; but I thought, This is but pain, and I shall be able to bear it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:20 @ my tent is laid waste, and all my cords are torn asunder; my children are gone away from me, and they are not; there is no one to stretch forth my tent any more, and to set up my curtains.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:22 @ Behold, the noise of the report is come, and a great commotion out of the north country, to render the cities of Judah desolate, a dwelling for monsters.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:23 @ I know, O Lord, that the way of man is not in his own power: it is not in man that passeth away to direct his own steps.

lesserot@Jeremiah:10:24 @ Correct me, O Lord, but with justice; not in thy anger, lest thou bring me to nothing.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:1 @ The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:2 @ Hear ye the words of this covenant, and speak unto the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem;

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:3 @ And say thou unto them, Thus hath said the Lord God of Israel, Cursed be the man that hearkeneth not to the words of this covenant,

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:4 @ Which I commanded your fathers on the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the iron furnace, saying, Hearken to my voice, and do the same, in accordance with all which I may command you; and so shall ye be to me for a people, and I will be to you for a God;

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:5 @ In order that I may fulfill the oath which I have sworn unto your fathers, to give unto them a land flowing with milk and honey, as it is this day. And I answered, and said, So be it, O Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:6 @ Then said the Lord unto me, Proclaim all these words in the cities of Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem, saying, Hear ye the words of this covenant, and do them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:7 @ For I earnestly warned your fathers on the day that I brought them up out of the land of Egypt even until this day, sending out early and warning, saying, Hearken to my voice;

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:8 @ Yet they hearkened not, and inclined not their ear, but walked every one in the stubbornness of their evil heart: therefore did I bring over them all the words of this covenant, which I commanded them to do; but which they did not.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:9 @ And the Lord said unto me, A conspiracy hath been found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:10 @ They are returned again to the iniquities of their earlier forefathers, who had refused to hearken to my words; and they themselves are gone after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:11 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will bring an evil upon them, from which they shall not be able to rid themselves; and they will cry unto me, but I will not hearken unto them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:12 @ Then let the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem go, and cry unto the gods unto whom they offer incense; but they shall not save them in the least in the time of their distress.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:13 @ For equal to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and equal to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to the disgraceful idol, altars, to burn incense unto Ba’al.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:14 @ But thou––thou must not pray in behalf of this people, neither lift up in their behalf entreaty or prayer; for I will not hear at the time that they call unto me, because of their distress.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:15 @ What hath my beloved to do in my house, while she executeth the evil counsel of so many? Yea, the holy flesh passeth away from thee; for even with thy wickedness, thou rejoicest still.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:17 @ And the Lord of hosts, that planted thee, hath decreed evil against thee; on account of the wickedness of the house of Israel and of the house of Judah, which they have done against themselves, to provoke me to anger in offering incense unto Ba’al.

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:19 @ But I was like a sheep or an ox that is brought to the slaughter; and I knew not that they had devised devices against me, "Let us destroy the tree with its fruit, and let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name may not be remembered any more."

lesserot@Jeremiah:11:20 @ But, O Lord of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart, let me see thy vengeance on them; for unto thee have I entrusted my cause.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:3 @ But thou, O Lord, knowest me; thou seest me, and probest my heart toward thee; set them apart like sheep for the slaughter, and destine them for the day of slaying.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:6 @ For even thy brethren, and the house of thy father, even they have dealt treacherously with thee; yea, even they have called forth a crowd of men after thee: believe them not, though they speak kindly unto thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:7 @ I have forsaken my house, I have abandoned my heritage; I have given up the most dearly beloved of my soul into the hand of her enemies.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:8 @ My heritage is become unto me as a lion in the forest; it sent forth its voice against me: therefore do I hate it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:9 @ Is my heritage become unto me as a bird of prey stained with blood? so that the birds of prey are all around it? Come ye, assemble all the beasts of the field, bring them hither to devour.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:11 @ They have made it a desert, and being desolate it mourneth before me: the whole land is made desolate, because no man laid it to heart.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:12 @ Over all the mountain–peaks in the wilderness did the destroyers come; for the sword of the Lord devoureth from the one end of the land even to the other end of the land: there is no peace to any flesh.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:13 @ They have sown wheat, but they reap thorns; they have put themselves to pain have no profit; be therefore ashamed of your products, because of the fierce anger of the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:14 @ Thus hath said the Lord against all my bad neighbors, that touch the inheritance which I have caused my people Israel to inherit, Behold, I will pluck them out of their land, and the house of Judah will I pluck out from the midst of them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:15 @ And it shall come to pass, that, after I have plucked them out, and I will again have mercy on them, and will restore them, every man to his heritage, and every man to his land.

lesserot@Jeremiah:12:16 @ And it shall come to pass, if they will truly learn the ways of my people, to swear by my name, As the Lord liveth; as they had taught my people to swear by Ba’al: that they shall then be built up in the midst of my people.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:1 @ Thus said the Lord unto me, Go and buy thee a linen girdle, and put it around thy loins, and lay it not in water.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:2 @ So I bought the girdle, according to the word of the Lord, and put it around my loins.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:3 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me the second time, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:4 @ Take the girdle that thou hast bought, which is around thy loins; and arise, go to the Euphrates, and hide it there in a cleft of the rock.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:6 @ And it came to pass at the end of many days, that the Lord said unto me, Arise, go to the Euphrates, and take from there the girdle, which I commanded thee to hide there.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:7 @ And I went to the Euphrates, and dug, and took the girdle from the place where I had hidden it: and, behold, the girdle was spoiled, it was useful for nothing.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:8 @ Then came the word of the Lord unto me, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:10 @ And this bad people, who refuse to hearken to my words, who walk in the stubbornness of their heart, and have followed other gods, to serve them, and to bow down to them, shall even be as this girdle which is useful for nothing.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:11 @ For as the girdle cleaveth to the loins of a man, so had I caused to cleave unto me all the house of Israel and all the house of Judah, saith the Lord,––to become unto me a people, and for a name, and for praise, and for honor; but they would not hear.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:12 @ Therefore shalt thou say unto them this word, Thus hath said the Lord the God of Israel, Every bottle shall be filled with wine: and when they will say unto thee, Do we not know full well that every bottle shall be filled with wine?

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:13 @ Then shalt thou say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will fill all the inhabitants of this land, even the kings that sit after David upon his throne, and the priests, and the prophets, and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, with drunkenness.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:14 @ And I will dash them one against the other, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the Lord: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, so as not to destroy them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:16 @ Give unto the Lord your God glory, before he cause darkness, and before your feet strike upon the mountains of twilight, and, while ye look for light, he turn it into the shadow of death, and change it into gross darkness.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:18 @ Say unto the king and to the queen–mother, Sit down very lowly; for sunk down are your head–attires, the crown of your ornament.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:19 @ The cities of the south are shut up, and there is no one to open them: Judah is carried away into exile altogether, it is carried into exile completely.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:21 @ What wilt thou say when he will punish thee? since thou hast accustomed them to be over thee captains, and chiefs? shall not pangs seize upon thee, as on a woman in travail?

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:23 @ Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil.

lesserot@Jeremiah:13:27 @ Thy adulteries and thy loud shoutings, the lewdness of thy incest, thy abominations on the hills in the fields have I seen. Woe unto thee, O Jerusalem! thou wilt not be made clean after ever so long a time.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:1 @ The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah concerning the drought.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:3 @ And their nobles have sent out their subordinates for water: they come to the pits, they find no water; they return with their vessels empty; they are ashamed and confounded, and cover their head.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:6 @ And the wild asses stand on the mountain–tops, they snuff up the wind like serpents: their eyes fail, because there are no herbs.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:8 @ O thou hope of Israel, his saviour in time of trouble, why shouldst thou be as a stranger in the land, and as a wayfarer that turneth aside to lodge for a night?

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:10 @ Thus hath said the Lord unto this people, Thus have they loved to wander about, their feet have they not restrained: therefore the Lord doth not receive them in favor; now will he remember their iniquity, and will punish their sins.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:11 @ Then said the Lord unto me, Pray not in behalf of this people for their good.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:13 @ Then said I, Ah, Lord Eternal! behold, the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but a permanent peace will I give you in this place.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:14 @ Then said the Lord unto me, Falsehood do the prophets prophesy in my name; I have not sent them, neither have I commanded them, neither have I spoken unto them: a vision of falsehood, and divination, and idolatrous folly, and the deceit of their heart do they prophesy unto you.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:15 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, when I have not sent them, while they say, Sword and famine shall not come in this land: By the sword and by the famine shall these prophets come to their end.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:16 @ And the people to whom they prophesy shall lie cast down in the streets of Jerusalem by means of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, and their sons, and their daughters; for I will pour out their wickedness over them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:17 @ But thou shalt say unto them this word. My eyes shall run down with tears night and day, and they shall not cease; for with a great breach is the virgin–daughter of my people broken, with a very painful blow.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:18 @ If I go forth into the field, behold, there are the slain with the sword! and if I enter into the city, behold, there are those that are sick with famine! for both the prophet and the priest travel round into a land that they know not.

lesserot@Jeremiah:14:22 @ Are there any among the vanities of the nations those that bestow rain? or can the heavens give forth showers? Behold, thou art this, O Lord our God, and we will hope in thee; for thou hast done all these things.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:1 @ And the Lord said unto me, If Moses and Samuel were to stand before me, my favor would not be toward this people: send them away out of my sight, that they may go forth.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:2 @ And it shall come to pass, if they should say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth, that thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord, Such as are destined to death, to death; and such as are destined to the sword, to the sword; and such as are destined to famine, to famine; and such as are destined to captivity, to captivity.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:3 @ And I will appoint over them four species, saith the Lord: The sword to slay, and the dogs to drag away, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and to destroy.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:4 @ And I will cause them to become a horror unto all the kingdoms of the earth, on account of Menasseh the son of Hezekiah the king of Judah, because of what he did in Jerusalem.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:5 @ For who will have pity upon thee, O Jerusalem? or who will condole with thee? or who will go aside to ask after thy welfare?

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:8 @ Their widows are more numerous before me than the sand of the seas: I bring unto them, over the mothers of the young men, a waster at noonday; I cause to fall upon her suddenly the enemy with terrors.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:9 @ She that had born seven children fadeth away; she breatheth out her soul, her sun is set while it is yet day; she is made ashamed and put to the blush:––and their residue will I give up to the sword before their enemies, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:10 @ Woe is me, my mother, that thou hast born me, a man of contention and a man of strife to the whole land! I have not lent, nor have men lent to me: every one of them curseth me.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:11 @ The Lord said, Truly I will release thee for good; truly I will cause the enemy to meet thee in the time of distress and in the time of affliction.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:14 @ And I will cause them to pass over with thy enemies into a land which thou knowest not; for a fire is kindled in my anger, over you shall it burn.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:15 @ Thou well knowest it, O Lord! remember me and think of me, and avenge me on my persecutors; not according to thy long–suffering act thou for me: know, that for thy sake I have borne shame.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:16 @ When thy words were made manifest to me, then I greedily received them; and thy word became unto me the gladness and joy of my heart; for thy name is called upon me, O Lord of hosts.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:18 @ Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable? it refuseth to be healed; it is truly become unto me as a deceptive spring, as waters that are not reliable.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:19 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord, If thou return, and I bring thee back again, then shalt thou stand before me; and if thou bring forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: these shall return unto thee; but thou shalt not return unto them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:15:20 @ And I will make thee unto this people as a fortified brazen wall; and they will fight against thee, but they shall not prevail against thee; for I am with thee to save thee and to deliver thee, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:4 @ A death through diseases of famine shall they die; they shall not be lamented for; nor shall they be buried; for dung upon the face of the earth shall they be: and by the sword and by famine shall they come to their end; and their carcasses shall be for food unto the fowls of heaven, and unto the beasts of the earth.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:5 @ For thus hath said the Lord, Enter not into the house of mourning, neither go to lament nor to condole with them; for I have taken away my peace from this people, saith the Lord, yea, kindness and mercy.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:7 @ Nor shall they break bread for them at their mourning, to comfort them for the dead; nor shall they give them to drink the cup of consolation for their father and for their mother.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:8 @ And into the house of feasting shalt thou not enter, to sit with them, to eat and to drink.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:9 @ For thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I will cause to cease out of this place before your eyes, and in your days, the voice of gladness, and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:10 @ And it shall come to pass, when thou shalt tell this people all these words, and they should say unto thee, Wherefore hath the Lord spoken against us all this great evil? and what is our iniquity? and what is our sin that we have committed against the Lord our God?

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:11 @ That thou shalt say unto them, Because your fathers forsook me, saith the Lord, and walked after other gods, and served them, and bowed down unto them, and me they forsook, and my law they kept not;

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:12 @ And ye act worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the stubbornness of his evil heart, so as not to hearken unto me;

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:13 @ Therefore will I hurl you out of this land into the land of which ye had no knowledge, neither ye nor your fathers; and ye will serve there other gods by day and by night; so that I will not grant you any favor.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:15 @ But, As the Lord liveth, who hath brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the countries whither he had driven them: and I will cause them to return unto their land which I have given unto their fathers.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:19 @ O Lord, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge on the day of trouble, unto thee shall nations come from the ends of the earth, and say, Nothing but falsehood had our fathers inherited, vanity, wherein there is no profit.

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:20 @ How? can a man make unto himself gods, which are yet no gods?

lesserot@Jeremiah:16:21 @ Therefore, behold, I will cause them to know, at this time will I cause them to know, my hand and my might: and they shall know that my name is The Eternal.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:4 @ And thou shalt be cast out, yea through thy own guilt, from thy heritage which I have given thee; and I will cause thee to serve thy enemies in a land which thou knowest not; for a fire have ye kindled in my anger, for ever shall it burn.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:10 @ I the Lord search the heart, probe the reins: yea, to give unto every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his deeds.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:15 @ Behold, they say unto me, Where is the word of the Lord? let it come now.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:16 @ As for me, I have not hastened to be a shepherd to follow thee; and the woeful day have I not longed for; thou knowest it: what came out of my lips was known before thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:17 @ Be not a terror unto me: thou art my protection on the day of evil.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:19 @ Thus said the Lord unto me, Go and stand in the gate of the children of the people, whereby the kings of Judah usually enter, and by which they usually go out, and in all the gates of Jerusalem;

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:20 @ And say unto them, Hear ye the word of the Lord, ye kings of Judah, and all Judah, and all inhabitants of Jerusalem, that enter in by these gates.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:23 @ But they hearkened not, and inclined not their ear; and they made their neck stiff, so as not to hearken, and not to receive instruction.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:24 @ And it shall come to pass, if ye will diligently hearken unto me, saith the Lord, so as to bring in no burden through the gates of this city on the sabbath–day, and to hallow the sabbath–day, so as to do no work thereon:

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:26 @ And there shall come from the cities of Judah, and from the environs of Jerusalem, and from the land of Benjamin, and from the lowlands, and from the mountain, and from the south, those that bring burnt–offerings, and sacrifices, and meat–offerings, and frankincense, and those that bring thanksgiving–offerings, unto the house of the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:17:27 @ But if ye will not hearken unto me to hallow the sabbath–day, and not to bear a burden, and to enter in at the gates of Jerusalem on the sabbath–day: then will I kindle a fire in its gates, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem, and it shall not be quenched.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:1 @ The word which came to Jeremiah from the Lord, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:2 @ Arise, and go down to the potter’s house, and there will I let thee hear my words.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:3 @ Then went I down to the potter’s house, and, behold, he was doing work on the wheels.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:4 @ And the vessel that he was making became spoiled as with the clay in the hand of the potter; and he made again thereof another vessel, as it seemed good in the eyes of the potter to make it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:5 @ Then came the word of the Lord to me, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:6 @ Shall I not be able to do unto you as this potter, O house of Israel? saith the Lord. Behold, as the clay is in the potter’s hand, so are ye in my hand, O house of Israel.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:7 @ At one instant I speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy it;

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:8 @ But should that nation, against whom I have spoken, return from their wrong–doing: then will I bethink me of the evil that I had thought to do unto them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:9 @ And at one instant I speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:10 @ But should it do what is evil in my eyes, so as not to hearken to my voice: then will I bethink me of the good, wherewith I had thought to benefit the same.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:11 @ And now do say to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I form against you evil, and devise against you a device: do but return now every one from his evil way, and amend your ways and your deeds.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:15 @ That my people have forgotten me, that they have burnt incense to false gods, and are made to stumble on their ways, the ancient beaten tracks, to walk in paths, on a road which is not leveled?

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:16 @ To make their land desolate, a perpetual derision: every one that passeth thereby shall be astonished, and shake his head.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:18 @ And they said, Come, and let us contrive devices against Jeremiah; for the law will not be lost from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let us smite him with the tongue, and let us not listen to any of his words.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:19 @ Listen to me, O Lord, and hearken to the voice of those that contend with me.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:20 @ Shall evil be recompensed instead of good, that they have dug a pit for my life? Remember my standing before thee to speak good concerning them, to cause thy wrath to turn away from them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:22 @ Let a cry be heard from their houses, when thou bringest a troop over them suddenly; for they have dug a pit to catch me, and laid concealed snares for my feet.

lesserot@Jeremiah:18:23 @ Yet thou, Lord, knowest well all their counsel against me to death: forgive not their iniquity, and let their sin not be blotted out from before thee; but let them be brought to stumbling before thee; in the time of thy anger deal thus with them.

lesserot@Jeremiah:19:2 @ And go forth unto the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the gate Charsith, and proclaim there the words that I will speak unto thee.

lesserot@Jeremiah:19:4 @ For the reason that they have forsaken me, and have defiled this place, and have burnt incense in it unto other gods, which they had not known, either they or their fathers, or the kings of Judah, and have filled this place with the blood of innocents;

lesserot@Jeremiah:19:5 @ And they have built the high–places of Ba’al, to burn their sons with fire as burnt–offerings unto Ba’al, which I had not commanded, nor spoken, and which had not come into my mind:

lesserot@Jeremiah:37:17 @ King Zedekiah sent, and had him taken out, and the king asked him in his house in secret, and said, "Is there any word from the Lord?" And Jeremiah said, "There is:" and he said, Into the hand of the king of Babylon shalt thou be given up.

lesserot@Jeremiah:37:18 @ And Jeremiah said unto king Zedekiah, What have I sinned against thee, and against thy servants, and against this people, that ye have put me into the prison–house?

lesserot@Jeremiah:37:19 @ And where are now your prophets who have prophesied unto you, saying, The king of Babylon will not come against you, and against this land?

lesserot@Jeremiah:37:20 @ Yet now, do but hear, I pray thee, O my lord the king: let me offer my humble supplication, I pray thee, before thee, that thou wilt not make me return to the house of Jonathan the scribe, lest I die there.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:1 @ And Shephatyah the son of Matthan, and Gedalyahu the son of Pashchur, and Juchal the son of Shelemyahu, and Pashchur the son of Malkiyah, heard the words that Jeremiah was speaking unto all the people, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:2 @ Thus hath said the Lord, He that remaineth in this city shall die by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence; but he that goeth forth to the Chaldeans shall live; and he shall have his life as a booty, and shall live.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:3 @ Thus hath said the Lord, This city shall surely be given up into the hand of the army of the king of Babylon, and he shall capture it.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:4 @ Thereupon said the princes unto the king, We beseech thee, let this man be put to death; for the cause that he weakeneth the hands of the men of war that are yet left in this city, and the hands of all the people, by speaking such words unto them; for this man seeketh not the welfare of this people, but their hurt.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:5 @ Then said king Zedekiah, Behold, he is in your hand; for the king is not able to do any thing against you.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:6 @ Then did they take Jeremiah, and cast him into the pit of Malkiyahu the son of the king, that was in the court of the prison: and they let Jeremiah down with cords; but in the pit there was no water, but mire; so that Jeremiah sunk into the mire.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:7 @ Now when ‘Ebed–melech the Cushi, a eunuch who was in the king’s house, heard that they had placed Jeremiah into the pit; while the king was sitting in the gate of Benjamin:

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:8 @ ‘Ebed–melech went forth out of the king’s house, and spoke to the king, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:9 @ My lord, O king, these men have done wrong in all that they have done to Jeremiah the prophet, whom they have cast into the pit; and he would have had to die in the place where he was for hunger; for there is no more bread in the city.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:11 @ So ‘Ebed–melech took the men with him, and went into the house of the king under the treasury, and took thence cast–off clothes and old rags, and let them down into the pit to Jeremiah by cords.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:12 @ And Ebed–melech the Cushi said unto Jeremiah, Put, I pray, these cast–off clothes and old rags under thy arm–pits beneath the cords. And Jeremiah did so.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:14 @ Then sent king Zedekiah, and took Jeremiah the prophet unto him into the third entry that was in the house of the Lord; and the king said unto Jeremiah, I will ask thee something: conceal nothing from me.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:15 @ Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, If I should tell it unto thee, behold, thou wilt surely put me to death; and if I should give thee counsel, thou wilt not hearken unto me.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:16 @ So king Zedekiah swore unto Jeremiah secretly, saying, As the Lord liveth, who hath made for us this soul, I will not put thee to death, nor will I give thee up into the hand of these men that seek thy life.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:17 @ Then said Jeremiah unto Zedekiah, Thus hath said the Lord, the God of hosts, the God of Israel, If thou wilt indeed go forth unto the princes of the king of Babylon, then shall thy soul live, and this city shall not be burnt with fire; and thou shalt live, thou with thy household;

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:18 @ But if thou wilt not go forth to the princes of the king of Babylon, then shall this city be given up into the hand of the Chaldeans, and they shall burn it with fire, and thou thyself shalt not escape out of their hand.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:19 @ Then said king Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, I am in dread of the Jews that have run away to the Chaldeans, lest these deliver me into their hand, and they might ill–use me.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:20 @ But Jeremiah said, They will not give up. Obey, I beseech thee, the voice of the Lord, in that which I speak unto thee; so it shall be well unto thee, and thy soul shall live.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:21 @ But if thou refuse to go forth, this is the word that the Lord hath shown me:

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:22 @ And behold, all the women that are left in the house of the king of Judah shall be led forth to the princes of the king of Babylon; and these women shall say, "They have enticed, and have overpersuaded thee––thy men that should have sought thy welfare; thy feet are sunk in the mire, and they have withdrawn themselves backward."

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:23 @ And all thy wives and thy children shall they bring out to the Chaldeans; and thou thyself shalt not escape out of their hand; for by the hand of the king of Babylon shalt thou be caught; and this city wilt thou cause to be burnt with fire.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:24 @ Then said Zedekiah unto Jeremiah, Let no man know of these words, that thou mayest not die.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:25 @ And if the princes should hear that I have spoken with thee, and they come unto thee, and say unto thee, tell us, we pray thee, what thou hast spoken unto the king, conceal it not from us, and we will not put thee to death; also what the king hath spoken unto thee:

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:26 @ Then shalt thou say unto them, I presented my humble supplication before the king, that he would not send me back to the house of Jonathan, to die there.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:27 @ And all the princes came unto Jeremiah, and asked him: and he told them in accordance with all these words that the king had commanded. And they turned away silent from him; for the matter had not been made public.

lesserot@Jeremiah:38:28 @ And Jeremiah remained in the court of the prison until the day that Jerusalem was taken. And it came to pass when Jerusalem was captured,

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:4 @ And it came to pass when Zedekiah the king of Judah saw them, and all the men of war, that they fled, and went forth out of the city by night, by the way of the king’s garden, by the gate between the two walls: and he went out by the way of the plain.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:5 @ But the army of the Chaldeans pursued after them, and they overtook Zedekiah in the plains of Jericho; and they took him, and brought him up to Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon to Riblah in the land of Chamath: and he called him to account.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:7 @ And the eyes of Zedekiah did he blind; and he bound him with brazen fetters, to carry him to Babylon.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:9 @ And the rest of the people that remained in the city, and those who had run away that had run away to him, with the rest of the people that remained, did Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard carry off into exile to Babylon.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:12 @ Take him, and direct thy eyes to him, and do him not the least harm; but as he may speak unto thee, even so do thou with him.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:14 @ Even they sent, and took Jeremiah out of the court of the prison, and they committed him unto Gedalyahu the son of Achikam the son of Shaphan, to carry him home: and he remained in the midst of the people.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:15 @ But unto Jeremiah was come the word of the Lord while he was shut up in the court of the prison, saying,

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:16 @ Go and say to ‘Ebed–melech the Cushi as followeth, Thus hath said the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, Behold, I will bring my words against this city for evil, and not for good; and they shall be accomplished before thee on that day.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:17 @ But I will deliver thee on that day, saith the Lord; and thou shalt not be given up into the hand of the men of whom thou hast dread.

lesserot@Jeremiah:39:18 @ For I will surely let thee escape, and thou shalt not fall by the sword; but thy life shall be unto thee as a booty; because thou hast put thy trust in me, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Jeremiah:40:1 @ The word that came unto Jeremiah from the Lord, after Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had dismissed him from Ramah, when he had taken him as he was bound in chains in the midst of all the exiles of Jerusalem and Judah, who were carried away into exile unto Babylon.

lesserot@Jeremiah:40:2 @ Then took the captain of the guard Jeremiah, and said unto him, The Lord thy God had spoken this evil over this place;

lesserot@Jeremiah:40:3 @ Now the Lord hath brought it, and hath done according as he had spoken; because ye had sinned against the Lord, and had not hearkened to his voice; and therefore is this thing come upon you.

lesserot@Jeremiah:40:4 @ And now, behold, I have freed thee this day from the chains which were upon thy hand. If it seem good in thy eyes to come with me to Babylon, come, and I will direct my eye unto thee; but if it seem ill in thy eyes to come with me to Babylon, forbear: behold, all the land is before thee; whither it seemeth good and proper in thy eyes to go, thither go.

lesserot@Jeremiah:40:5 @ And as he did not yet turn about, Go then back to Gedalyah the son of Achikam the son of Shaphan, whom the king of Babylon hath appointed governor over the cities of Judah, and dwell with him in the midst of the people; or wheresoever it seemeth proper in thy eyes to go, go. And the captain of the guard gave him an allowance and a present, and then dismissed him.

lesserot@Jeremiah:40:10 @ As for me, behold, I will dwell at Mizpah, to stand before the Chaldeans, who will come unto us; but ye, gather ye together wine, and summer–fruits, and oil, and put them in your vessels, and dwell in your cities of which ye have taken possession.

lesserot@Jeremiah:40:11 @ And so likewise all the Jews that were in Moab, and among the children of ‘Ammon, and in Edom, and that were in all the countries, heard that the king of Babylon had left a remnant unto Judah, and that he had appointed over them Gedalyahu the son of Achikam the son of Shaphan;

lesserot@Jeremiah:40:12 @ And then did all the Jews return out of all places whither they had been driven, and came to the land of Judah, to Gedalyahu, unto Mizpah, and gathered together wine and summer–fruits in very great abundance.

lesserot@Jeremiah:41:2 @ Then arose Ishmael the son of Nethanyah, and the ten men that were with him, and smote Gedalyahu the son of Achikam the son of Shaphan with the sword, and put to death him, whom the king of Babylon had appointed governor over the land.

lesserot@Jeremiah:41:12 @ Then did they take all the men, and went to fight with Ishmael the son of Nethanyah, and found him by the great water that is near Gib’on.

lesserot@Lamentations:2:19 @ Arise, complain aloud in the night, in the beginning of the watches; pour out like water thy heart before the face of the Lord: lift up toward him thy hands because of the life of thy babes, that faint away for hunger at the corner of all the streets.

lesserot@Lamentations:2:20 @ See, O Lord, and behold! to whom hast thou ever done the like? Shall women, then, eat their own fruit, the babes they have tenderly nursed? or shall there be slain in the sanctuary of the Lord the priest and the prophet?

lesserot@Lamentations:2:22 @ Thou hast called, as it were on a festive day, my evil neighbors from round about; and there was not on the day of the Lord’s anger one that escaped or remained: those that I had tenderly nursed and reared up my enemy brought to their end.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:2 @ Me hath he driven out, and led into darkness, but not into light.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:4 @ He hath caused my flesh and my skin to wear out, he hath broken my bones.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:6 @ In dark places hath he set me to dwell, like the dead of olden times.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:9 @ He hath fenced up my ways with hewn stone, my paths hath he made crooked.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:10 @ A bear lying in wait is he to me, a lion in secret places.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:11 @ On my ways hath he placed thorns, and torn me in pieces: he hath made me desolate.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:13 @ He hath caused to enter into my reins the children of his quiver.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:14 @ I am become a laughing–stock to all my people, their song all the day.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:16 @ He hath also broken my teeth with gravel–stones, he hath covered me with ashes.

lesserot@Lamentations:3:35 @ To pervert the justice before the face of the Most High.

lesserot@Lamentations:4:8 @ Darker than black is now their visage; they are not to be recognized in the streets: their skin is shriveled fast upon their bones; it is dry, it is become like wood.

lesserot@Lamentations:4:10 @ The hands of merciful women cooked their own children: they became food unto them in the downfall of the daughter of my people.

lesserot@Lamentations:4:14 @ They wandered about blindly in the streets, they became defiled with blood; so that men were not able to touch their garments.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:1 @ And it came to pass in the thirtieth year, in the fourth month, on the fifth day of the month, as I was in the midst of the exiles by the river Kebar, that the heavens were opened, and I saw divine visions.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:3 @ Came the word of the Lord expressly unto Ezekiel the son of Buzi, the priest, in the land of the Chaldeans by the river Kebar; and there came upon him there the inspiration of the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:4 @ And I saw, and behold, a storm–wind came out of the north, a great cloud, and a flaming fire, and a brightness was on it round about; and out of the midst of it was like the glitter of amber, out of the midst of the fire.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:9 @ Their wings were joined one to the other: they turned not about in their going; they went every one in the direction of one of their faces.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:11 @ Thus were their faces: and their wings were spread out upward; every one had two joined one to another, and two covered their bodies.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:12 @ And they went every one in the direction of one of his faces: whither the spirit was directed to go, they went; they turned not about in their going.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:13 @ As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like coals of fire, burning as with the appearance of torches; this it was which passed along between the living creatures: and a brightness was about the fire, and out of the fire went forth lightning.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:17 @ Toward their four sides they went in their going: they turned not round in their going.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:19 @ And when the living creatures went, the wheels went near to them: and when the living creatures lifted themselves up from the earth, the wheels lifted themselves up.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:20 @ Whithersoever the spirit was to go, they went; thither was spirit to go: and the wheels lifted themselves up at the same time with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:21 @ When those went, these went; and when those stood, these stood; and when those lifted themselves up from the earth, the wheels lifted themselves up at the same time with them; for the spirit of the living creatures was in the wheels.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:23 @ And under the vault their wings were straight, the one toward the other: every one had two, which covered them, and every one had two, which covered them,–– their bodies.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:24 @ And I heard the sound of their wings, like the sound of great waters, as the voice of the Almighty, when they went, the sound of speech, as the noise of an army: when they stood still, they let down their wings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:25 @ And there was a voice from the vault that was over their head: when they stood still, they let down their wings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:1:26 @ And above the vault that was over their head was like the appearance of a sapphire–stone, the likeness of a throne: and upon the likeness of the throne was a likeness as the appearance of a man above upon it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:1 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, stand up upon thy feet, and I will speak with thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:2 @ And a spirit entered into me as he spoke unto me, and it placed me upon my feet, and I heard him that spoke unto me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:3 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, I send thee to the children of Israel, to rebellious tribes that have rebelled against me: they and their fathers have transgressed against me, even until this very day.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:4 @ And the children are impudent of face, and obdurate of heart: I send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:7 @ And thou shalt speak my words unto them, whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear; for they are rebellious.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:8 @ But thou, son of man, hear what I am speaking unto thee, Be not thou rebellious like this rebellious family: open thy mouth, and eat what I give unto thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:2:9 @ And then I looked, and behold, a hand was stretched out toward me; and, lo, a roll–book was therein;

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:1 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, eat what thou findest: eat this roll, and go, speak unto the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:2 @ So I opened my mouth, and he caused me to eat this roll.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:3 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, feed thy belly, and fill thy bowels with this roll that I am giving unto thee. And I ate it; and it was in my mouth like honey in sweetness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:4 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, go, get thee unto the house of Israel, and speak with my words unto them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:5 @ For not to a people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue art thou sent, but to the house of Israel;

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:6 @ Not to many people of an obscure speech and of a difficult tongue, whose words thou canst not understand. Surely, had I sent thee to them, they would truly have hearkened unto thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:7 @ But the house of Israel will not hearken unto thee; for they will not hearken unto me; for all the house of Israel have a bold forehead, and a hard heart.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:10 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, all my words that I will speak unto thee receive in thy heart, and hear with thy ears.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:11 @ And go, get thee to those in exile, unto the children of thy people, and speak unto them, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal: whether they will hear, or whether they will forbear.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:12 @ Then a spirit took me up, and I heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, Blessed be the glory of the Lord from his place.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:13 @ also the sound of the wings of the living creatures that touched one another, and the sound of the wheels at the same time with them, and the sound of a great rushing.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:14 @ So a spirit lifted me up, and took me away, and I walked in bitterness, in the heat of my spirit, and the inspiration of the Lord was strong upon me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:15 @ Then came I to the exiles at Tel–abib, who dwelt by the river Kebar, and I remained where they dwelt, and I remained there in a state of confusion among them seven days.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:16 @ And it came to pass at the end of seven days, That the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:17 @ Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: and thou shalt hear the word out of my mouth, and give them warning from me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:18 @ When I say unto the wicked, Thou shalt surely die; and thou dost not give him warning, and speakest not to warn the wicked from his wicked way, to save his life: the same wicked man shall die through his iniquity; but his blood will I require at thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:21 @ But if thou hast truly warned him,––the righteous, that the righteous should not sin, and he doth not sin: he shall surely live, because he attended to the warning, and thou hast surely delivered thy own soul.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:22 @ And the inspiration of the Lord came there over me; and he said unto me, Arise, go forth into the valley, and there will I speak with thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:23 @ And I arose, and went forth into the valley; and, behold, there was the glory of the Lord standing, like that glory which I had seen by the river Kebar: and I fell down on my face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:24 @ Then entered a spirit into me, and placed me upright on my feet, and spoke with me, and said unto me, Go, shut thyself up within thy house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:26 @ And I will let thy tongue cleave to the roof of thy mouth, that thou shalt be dumb, and shalt not become to them a man who reproveth; for they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:3:27 @ But when I speak with thee, I will open thy mouth, and thou shalt say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, He that heareth, let him hear; and he that forbeareth, let him forebear; for they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:3 @ Moreover take thou unto thyself an iron pan, and set it up as a wall of iron between thee and the city: and direct thy face against it, that it may be placed in a state of siege, and lay siege against it. This shall be a sign for the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:7 @ And toward the siege of Jerusalem shalt thou direct thy face with thy arm uncovered, and thou shalt prophesy against it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:8 @ And, behold, I will lay ropes upon thee, that thou mayest not turn thyself from one side to the other, till thou hast made an end of the days of thy siege.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:9 @ But thou take unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentiles, and millet, and spelt, and put them in one vessel, and make thyself bread thereof, the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon thy side, three hundred and ninety days, shalt thou eat it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:10 @ And thy food which thou shalt eat shall be by weight, twenty shekels for every day: from one time to the other time shalt thou eat it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:11 @ And water shalt thou drink by measure, the sixth part of a hin: from one time to the other time shalt thou drink.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:14 @ Then said I, Ah Lord Eternal! behold, my soul hath not been defiled; and that which dieth of itself, or is torn in pieces, have I never eaten from my youth up even until now; and never is flesh of abomination come into my mouth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:15 @ Then said he unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow’s dung instead of human excrement; and thou shalt prepare thy bread thereupon.

lesserot@Ezekiel:4:16 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, behold, I will break the staff of bread in Jerusalem; and they shall eat bread by weight, and with anxious care; and they shall drink water by measure, and in confusion;

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:1 @ And thou, son of man, take unto thyself a sharp sword, a barber’s razor shalt thou take for it unto thyself, and cause it to pass over thy head and over thy beard: then take unto thee balances for weighing, and divide the hair.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:2 @ One third part shalt thou burn with fire in the midst of the city, when the days of the siege are completed; and thou shalt take another third part, and smite round about it with the sword; and the other third part shalt thou scatter to the wind: and I will draw out a sword after the same.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:4 @ And from these again shalt thou take some, and cast them into the midst of the fire, and burn them in the fire: therefrom shall a fire go forth unto all the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:7 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because ye have given yourselves up to evil more than the nations that are round about you, have not walked in my statutes, and have not executed my ordinances, and not even acted according to the ordinances of the nations that are round about you:

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:10 @ Therefore fathers shall devour their children in the midst of thee, and children shall devour their fathers: and I will execute judgments on thee, and I will scatter all thy remnant unto all the winds.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:12 @ A third part of thee shall die through the pestilence, and come through famine to their end in the midst of thee; and another third part shall fall by the sword round about thee; and the other third part will I scatter unto all the winds, and a sword will I draw out after them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:13 @ Thus shall my anger be accomplished, and I will cause my fury to rest upon them, and I will satisfy myself: and they shall know that I the Lord have spoken it in my zeal, when I have let out all my fury on them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:15 @ And she shall be a disgrace and a taunt, a warning and an astonishment unto the nations that are round about thee, when I execute judgments on thee in anger and in fury and in furious chastisements,––I the Lord have spoken it,––

lesserot@Ezekiel:5:16 @ When I send out among them the dreadful arrows of famine, which were the cause of destruction, which I will send out to destroy you; and I will increase the famine upon you, and will break unto you the staff of bread:

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:3 @ And thou shalt say, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal! Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains, and to the hills, to the brooks, and to the valleys, Behold, I, even I, will bring over you the sword, and I will destroy your high–places.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:4 @ And your altars shall be made desolate, and your sun–images shall be broken: and I will cause your slain ones to fall before your idols.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:10 @ And they shall know that I am the Lord: not for naught have I spoken that I would do unto them this evil.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:11 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Strike thy hands together, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the dreadful abominations of the house of Israel! who will have to fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:13 @ And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when their slain ones shall lie in the midst of their idols round about their altars, on every high hill, upon all the tops of the mountains, and under every green tree, and under every thick–branched oak,––places where they presented sweet savor to all their idols.

lesserot@Ezekiel:6:14 @ And I will stretch out my hand over them, and I will render the land desolate and waste, more than the wilderness toward Diblath, in all their habitations: and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:3 @ Now cometh the end over thee, and I will let loose my anger against thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways, and I will lay upon thee all thy abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:8 @ Now will I in a short time pour out my fury over thee, and I will let out all my anger against thee, and I will judge thee according to thy ways, and I will lay upon thee all thy abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:9 @ And my eye shall not show pity, and I will not spare: according to thy ways will I lay on thee, and thy abominations shall come in the midst of thee: and ye shall know that I am the Lord that smiteth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:11 @ The violence is grown up into the staff of wickedness: nothing is left of them, and nothing of their multitude, and nothing of theirs; and there shall be no lamenting for them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:13 @ For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although their soul were yet alive; for the vision is against all her multitude; no one shall return; but the soul of every one is fastened to his iniquity, they do not strengthen themselves.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:14 @ They have blown the cornet, every one maketh himself ready; but no one goeth to the battle; for my wrath is against all her multitude.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:17 @ All hands become feeble, and all knees go into water.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:19 @ Their silver shall they cast into the streets, and their gold shall be as though it were unclean: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them on the day of the wrath of the Lord; they shall not satisfy their souls, and not fill their bowels; because it was the stumbling–block for their iniquity.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:21 @ And I will give it up into the hands of the strangers for a prey, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil: and they shall pollute it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:24 @ Therefore will I bring the worst of nations, and they shall take possession of their houses: I will also cause the pride of the mighty to cease; and their holy places shall be polluted.

lesserot@Ezekiel:7:27 @ The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with distress, and the hands of the people of the land shall be powerless: after their way will I do unto them, and according to their own manners will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:1 @ And it came to pass in the sixth year, in the sixth month, on the fifth day of the month, that I was sitting in my house, and the elders of Judah were sitting before me; and there fell upon me there the inspiration of the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:2 @ And I saw, and, behold, there was a likeness similar to the appearance of fire; from the appearance of his loins downward, it was fire; and from his loins upward, it was similar to the appearance of a bright light, like the glitter of amber.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:3 @ And he stretched forth the form of a hand, and took me by the locks of my head; and a spirit bore me between the earth and the heaven, and brought me in the visions of God to Jerusalem, to the door of the inner gate that looketh toward the north, where was the seat of the image of jealousy, which provoketh to wrath.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:5 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, do but lift up thy eyes in the direction toward the north. So I lifted up my eyes in the direction toward the north, and behold northward at the gate of the altar this image of jealousy at the entrance.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:6 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, seest thou what they are doing? great abominations are they that the house of Israel commit here, to make me go far away from my sanctuary; but thou shalt yet see still other great abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:7 @ And he brought me to the door of the court: and I looked, and behold there was a hole in the wall.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:8 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, do break in the wall: and I broke in the wall, and, behold, there was a door.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:9 @ And he said unto me, Go in, and see the wicked abominations which they are doing here.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:12 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the dark, every man in his image–chambers? for they say, The Lord seeth us not: the Lord hath forsaken the earth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:13 @ And he said unto me, Thou shalt yet again see still other great abominations that they are doing.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:14 @ And he brought me to the entrance of the gate of the Lord’s house which was on the north side: and, behold, there sat the women weeping for Thammuz.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:15 @ Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Thou shalt yet again see still other greater abominations than these.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:16 @ And he brought me into the inner court of the Lord’s house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the Lord, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the Lord, and their faces toward the east; and they were prostrating themselves eastward to the sun.

lesserot@Ezekiel:8:17 @ Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it too light a thing for the house of Judah to commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and they constantly repeat to provoke me to anger; and, lo, they stretch forth the branch to their nose.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:1 @ And he called before my ears with a loud voice, saying, Let those come near that have charge to punish the city, and every man with his destroying weapon in his hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:2 @ And, behold, six men came from the direction of the upper gate, which is turned toward the north, and every man with his weapon of destruction in his hand; and one man in the midst of them was clothed in linen, with a writer’s materials by his side: and they went in, and placed themselves beside the copper altar.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:3 @ And the glory of the God of Israel ascended up from the cherub, whereupon it had been, to the threshold of the house. And he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s materials by his side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:4 @ And the Lord said unto him, Pass through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and inscribe a mark upon the foreheads of the men who sigh and who complain because of all the abominations which are done in the midst of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:5 @ And to the others he said before my ears, Pass ye through the city after him, and smite: let your eye not look with pity, and do not spare;

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:7 @ And he said unto them, Make unclean the house, and fill the courts with the slain: go forth. And they went forth, and they smote in the city.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:8 @ And it came to pass, while they were smiting them, and I alone was left, that I fell upon my face, and cried out, and said, Ah Lord Eternal! wilt thou destroy all the residue of Israel when thou pourest out thy fury over Jerusalem?

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:9 @ Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and of Judah is exceedingly great, and the land is full of blood–guiltiness, and the city full of injustice; for they have said, The Lord hath forsaken the land, and the Lord seeth not.

lesserot@Ezekiel:9:11 @ And, behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the writing materials by his side, brought back word, saying, I have done according to all that thou hast commanded me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:1 @ Then I saw, and, behold, on the vault that was above the head of the cherubim, there appeared over them something like a sapphire stone, something similar in appearance to the likeness of a throne.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:2 @ And he said unto the man clothed in linen, and said, Go in between the wheels, under the cherub, and fill thy hands with coals of fire from between the cherubim, and throw over the city. And he went in before my eyes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:4 @ Then the glory of the Lord rose upward from the cherub, toward the threshold of the house: and the house was filled with the cloud, and the court was full of the brightness of the Lord’s glory.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:6 @ And it came to pass, when he commanded the man clothed in linen, saying, Take fire from between the wheels, from between the cherubim, that he went in, and stood beside the wheel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:7 @ And the one cherub stretched forth his hand from between the cherubim unto the fire that was between the cherubim, and lifted it up, and placed it into the hands of the one clothed in linen; who took it, and went out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:9 @ And I saw, and, behold, there were four wheels by the cherubim, one wheel by the one cherub, and another wheel by the other cherub: and the appearance of the wheels was like the glitter of a chrysolite stone.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:11 @ In their going, they went toward their four sides, they turned not round in their going; but to the place whither the head was turned they followed it, they turned not round in their going.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:12 @ And their whole body, and their back, and their hands, and their wings, as also the wheels, were full of eyes round about, the wheels that belonged to all four of them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:16 @ And when the cherubim went forward, the wheels went close by them; and when the cherubim lifted up their wings to mount up from the earth, the wheels also did not turn away from beside them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:10:20 @ This is the living creature that I saw under the God of Israel by the river Kebar; and I understood that they were cherubim.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:1 @ And a spirit bore me up, and brought me unto the east gate of the house of the Lord, which looketh eastward: and behold, there were at the entrance of the gate five and twenty men; and I saw in the midst of them Yaazanyah the son of ‘Azzur, and Pelatyahu the son of Benayahu, princes of the people.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:2 @ Then said he unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise wickedness, and give evil counsel in this city;

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:5 @ And the Spirit of the Lord fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak, Thus hath said the Lord, Thus have ye said, O house of Israel; and whatever cometh into your mind, do I know full well.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:7 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Those slain by you whom ye have struck down in the midst of it, ––they are the flesh, and this place is the pot; but you are to be removed out of the midst of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:9 @ And I will remove you out of the midst of it, and I will give you up into the hand of strangers, and will execute punishments among you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:11 @ This place shall not be unto you as a pot, so that you should be as flesh in the midst of it; but on the boundary of Israel will I judge you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:13 @ And it came to pass, as I was prophesying, that Pelatyahu the son of Benayah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah Lord Eternal! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:14 @ Then came the word of the Lord unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:15 @ Son of man, thy brethren, even thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and the whole house of Israel altogether, are they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Remain you far from the Lord: unto us is this land given for a possession.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:16 @ Therefore say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Although I have removed them far away among the nations, and although I have scattered them among the countries: yet will I be to them as a minor sanctuary in the countries whither they are come.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:19 @ And I will give them one single heart, and a new spirit will I put within you; and I will remove the heart of stone out of their body, and I will give unto them a heart of flesh:

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:20 @ In order that they may walk in my statutes, and keep my ordinances, and do them; and they shall be unto me for a people, and I will indeed be unto them for a God.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:24 @ But a spirit bore me up, and brought me into Chaldea, to those in exile, in the appearance through the spirit of God: and then ascended away from me the appearance which I had seen.

lesserot@Ezekiel:11:25 @ Then did I speak unto those in exile all the things that the Lord had shown me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:1 @ The word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:2 @ Son of man, in the midst of a rebellious family art thou dwelling, who have eyes to see, and see not; who have ears to hear, and hear not; for they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:3 @ But thou, O son of man, prepare for thyself vessels for going into exile, and wander away by day before their eyes; and thou shalt wander away from thy place to another place before their eyes: perhaps they may become aware that they are a rebellious family.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:4 @ Then shalt thou carry forth thy vessels, like vessels of exile, by day before their eyes: and thou shalt go forth at evening before their eyes, as they do that go forth into exile.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:6 @ Before their shalt thou bear them upon thy shoulders, in the dark shalt thou carry them forth: thy face shalt thou cover, that thou mayest not see the ground; for as a token have I set thee unto the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:8 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me in the morning, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:9 @ Son of man, have not the house of Israel, the rebellious family, said unto thee, What doest thou?

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:10 @ Say thou unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, For the prince in Jerusalem is the doom, and for all the house of Israel, that are in the midst of them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:11 @ Say, I am your token; just as I have done, so shall it be done unto them: into exile, into captivity, shall they wander.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:12 @ And the prince that is among them shall bear upon his shoulder in the dark, and shall go forth; through the wall shall they break a hole to carry through it: his face shall he cover up, that he may not see the ground with his eyes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:13 @ And I will spread out my net over him, and he shall be caught in my snare: and I will bring him to Babylon into the land of the Chaldeans; yet shall he not see it, and there shall he die.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:14 @ And all that are round about him, those who assist him, and all the wings of his armies will I disperse toward every wind; and the sword will I draw out after them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:17 @ And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:19 @ And thou shalt say unto the people of the land, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal concerning the inhabitants of Jerusalem, concerning the land of Israel, Their bread shall they eat with anxious care, and their water shall they drink with confusion, for the cause that her land will be desolate, deprived of its plenteousness because of the violence of all those that dwell therein.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:21 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:23 @ Therefore say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will cause this proverb to cease, and they shall no more use it as a proverb in Israel; but speak unto them, The days are coming nigh, and the word of every vision.

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:26 @ And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:12:28 @ Therefore say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, There shall not be delayed any more one of all my words; but whatever word I do speak shall be done, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:3 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Woe unto the scandalous prophets, that follow their own spirit, without having seen any thing!

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:5 @ Ye did not go up into the breaches, nor did ye make a fence around the house of Israel to stand in the battle on the day of the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:9 @ And my hand shall be against the prophets that see false–hood, and that divine lies; in the secret council of my people shall they not be, and in the register of the house of Israel shall they not be written, and into the land of Israel shall they not come: and ye shall know that I am the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:11 @ Say unto those who plaster it with unadhesive mortar, that it shall fall: there cometh an overflowing rain–shower; and ye, O great hailstones, shall fall; and a storm–wind shall rend it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:12 @ And, lo, the wall is fallen down; will it not now be said unto you, Where is the plastering wherewith ye have plastered?

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:13 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will even rend it with storm–winds in my fury; and an overflowing rain–shower shall come in my anger, with great hailstones in my fury to destroy it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:14 @ And I will pull down the wall that ye have plastered with unadhesive mortar, and I will cast it down to the ground, so that the foundation thereof shall be laid open; and it shall fall, and ye shall be destroyed in the midst of it: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:15 @ Thus will I let out all my wrath upon the wall, and upon those that have plastered it with unadhesive mortar; and I will say unto you, Gone is the wall, and gone are they that plastered it;

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:18 @ And say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Woe to the women that sew bolsters together for the armpits of all, and make cushions for the head of every stature, to hunt souls! Will ye hunt the souls of my people, that ye may keep your own soul alive?

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:19 @ And ye profane me among my people for handfuls of barley and for bits of bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to keep alive the souls that should not live, by your lying to my people that listen to lies!

lesserot@Ezekiel:13:21 @ And I will tear away your cushions, and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand to be hunted: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:1 @ Then came there unto me certain men of the elders of Israel, and sat down before me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:2 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:6 @ Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Return, and cause to turn away from your idols: and from all your abominations turn away your faces.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:7 @ For whatever man it be of the house of Israel, or of the stranger that sojourneth in Israel, that separateth himself from me, and setteth up his idols in his heart, and layeth the stumbling–block of his iniquity before his face, and then cometh to the prophet to inquire through him of me: I the Lord will answer him through my word;

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:8 @ And I will set my face against that man, and will make him an astonishment for a sign and for proverbs, and I will cut him off from the midst of my people; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:9 @ And when the prophet suffereth himself to be deceived, and he speaketh a word: I the Lord have suffered that prophet to be deceived: and I will stretch out my hand against him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:11 @ In order that the house of Israel may go no more astray by not following me, and not pollute themselves any more with all their transgressions; but that they may become unto me a people, and I may be unto them a God, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:12 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:14:13 @ Son of man, if a land should sin against me by trespassing grievously, and I stretch out my hand against it, and break unto it the staff of bread, and send out famine against it, and cut off from it man and beast;

lesserot@Ezekiel:15:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:15:3 @ Can wood be taken therefrom to employ it for any work? or will men take from it a pin to hang thereon any vessel?

lesserot@Ezekiel:15:4 @ Behold, if it be given up to the fire to be consumed,–– the fire have consumed both its ends, and the middle of it be scorched; will it be fit for any work?

lesserot@Ezekiel:15:6 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, As the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given up to the fire to be consumed: so do I give up the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:2 @ Son of man, make known unto Jerusalem her abominations,

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:3 @ And thou shalt say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal unto Jerusalem, Thy origin and thy birth are out of the land of Canaan: thy father was an Emorite, and thy mother a Hittite.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:4 @ And as for thy birth, on the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut, nor wast thou washed in water to he cleansed; and thou wast not rubbed with salt, nor wrapt in swaddling clothes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:5 @ No eye looked with pity on thee, to do any of these things unto thee, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out on the open field, with a loathing of thy body, on the day that thou wast born.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:6 @ But I passed then by thee, and I saw thee stained with thy own blood, and I said unto thee, In thy blood, live; yea, I said unto thee, In thy blood, live.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:8 @ But I passed then by thee, and saw thee, and, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread the skirt of my garment over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I swore unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord Eternal, and thou becamest mine.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:13 @ Thus wast thou ornamented with gold and silver; and thy garments were of fine linen, and silk, and broidered work; fine flour, and honey, and oil didst thou eat: and thou wast exceedingly beautiful, and thou didst succeed to acquire dominion.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:15 @ But thou didst trust in thy beauty, and play the harlot because of thy fame, and lavish thy lewd caresses on every one that passed by––on him they were bestowed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:16 @ And thou didst take from thy garments, and deck thee high–places with divers colors, and play the harlot thereupon: never should the like come to pass, and never should it be so.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:20 @ And thou didst take thy sons and thy daughters, whom thou hadst born unto me, and didst slaughter these unto them to be devoured; were thy acts of lewdness not yet enough?

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:21 @ That thou didst slay my children, and give them up to cause them to pass through the fire for them?

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:23 @ And it came to pass after all thy wickedness,––––

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:24 @ That thou didst build unto thyself eminences, and make thyself elevations in every street.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:25 @ On the corner of every road didst thou build thy elevations, and make thy beauty abominable, and spread out thy feet to every one that passed by, and multiply thy acts of lewdness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:26 @ And thou didst play the harlot with the Egyptians, thy neighbors, with large limbs, and multiply thy acts of lewdness, to provoke me to anger.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:27 @ And, behold, I stretched out my hand over thee, and diminished thy stated portion; and I gave thee up unto the will of those that hate thee, the daughters of the Philistines, who were made to blush for thy incestuous course.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:32 @ O thou adulterous wife! who, while bound to her husband, receiveth strangers!

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:33 @ Unto all harlots they give presents; but thou hast given thy presents to all thy lovers, and hast bribed them, that they might come unto thee from every side in thy acts of lewdness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:34 @ And the reverse was the case with thee from women in thy acts of lewdness, that men did not follow thee to seek thy lewd caresses; and because thou gavest the wages, and no wages were given thee: so was it the reverse with thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:36 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Whereas thy wealth was squandered, and thy nakedness was uncovered through thy lewd acts with thy lovers, and with all thy abominable idols, and for the blood of thy children, whom thou didst give unto them:

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:37 @ Therefore, behold, I will gather all thy lovers, whom thou hast given pleasure, and all whom thou hast loved, together with all whom thou hast hated,––yea, I will gather them all round about thee, and will uncover thy nakedness unto them, that they may see all thy nakedness.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:39 @ And I will also give thee up into their hand, and they shall pull down thy eminences, and shall break down thy elevations; and they shall strip thee of thy clothes, and they shall take thy elegant ornaments, and leave thee naked and bare.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:40 @ And they shall bring up against thee an assembly, and they shall stone thee with stones, and thrust thee through with their swords;

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:41 @ And they shall burn thy houses with fire, and execute punishments on thee before the eyes of many women: and I will cause thee to cease from being a harlot, and also the wages shalt thou not give any more.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:47 @ Yet not even in their ways didst thou walk, nor act according to their abominations: as though this were quite too little, and thou wast more corrupt than they in all thy ways.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:52 @ Bear then thou also thy own confusion, which thou didst adjudge unto each of thy sisters; through thy sins, which thou hast committed more abominably than they, are they made more righteous than thou: therefore thou also––be ashamed, and bear thy confusion, since thou hast justified thy sisters.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:54 @ In order that thou mayest bear thy confusion, and mayest be confounded because of all that thou hast done, when thou art a comfort unto them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:55 @ And thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former state, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former state, and thou and thy daughters shall return to your former state.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:58 @ Thy incest and thy abominations,––thou thyself hadst to bear them, saith the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:60 @ Nevertheless will I indeed remember my covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant.

lesserot@Ezekiel:16:61 @ And thou shalt then remember thy ways, and be confounded, when thou receivest thy sisters, both those that are older than thou and younger than thou: and I will give them unto thee for daughters, though not because thou wast faithful to the covenant.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:2 @ Son of man, put forth a riddle, and propound a parable unto the house of Israel;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:3 @ And say, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The great eagle with large wings, long winged, full of feathers, who is rich in many colors, came unto the Lebanon, and took the highest branch of the cedar:

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:4 @ The topmost of its young twigs did he crop off, and carry it into the traders’ land; and he set it in a city of merchants.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:5 @ And he took some of the seed of the land, and planted it in a fruitful field: he placed it by great waters, he transplanted it among the willow–trees.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:6 @ And it grew, and became a trailing vine of low stature, the tendrils of which should turn toward him, and the roots of which should be under him: so it became a vine, and brought forth branches, and sent out shoots.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:7 @ There was also another great eagle with large wings and many feathers: and, behold, this vine did bend its roots famishing toward him, and shot forth its tendrils toward him, that he might water it, from the beds where it was planted;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:9 @ Say now, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Shall it prosper? Behold the other will pull up its roots, and its fruit will he cut away, that it may dry up; every one of its growing leaves shall dry up; and not with great power and numerous people to tear it away from its roots.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:10 @ Yea, behold, although it is planted, shall it prosper? Lo, as soon as the east wind toucheth it, shall it be utterly dried up: in the beds where it groweth shall it dry up.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:11 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:12 @ Do now say to the rebellious family, Know ye not what these things mean? Say, Behold, the king of Babylon came to Jerusalem, and took away its king and its princes, and he brought them unto himself to Babylon;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:13 @ And he took one of the royal seed, and made a covenant with him, and bound him with an oath; but the mighty of the land did he take away;

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:14 @ That the kingdom should be debased, so as not to lift itself up; that it should keep his covenant that it might continue to exist.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:15 @ But he rebelled against him by sending his messengers into Egypt, that they might give him horses and numerous people. Shall he prosper? shall he escape that doth such things? yea, he hath broken the covenant, and shall he escape?

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:17 @ And not with a mighty army and a large assembly shall Pharaoh labor for him in the war, when casteth up mounds, and buildeth works of attack, to cut off many souls.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:20 @ And I will spread my net over him, and he shall be caught in my snare, and I will bring him to Babylon, and will hold judgment with him there for his trespass which he hath committed against me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:21 @ And all his fugitives with all the wings of his army shall fall by the sword, and those that remain shall be dispersed toward all winds: and ye shall know that I the Lord have spoken it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:22 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, But I myself will take of the highest branch of the high cedar, and will preserve it; from the topmost of its young twigs will I crop off a tender one, and I myself will plant it firmly upon a high and eminent mountain:

lesserot@Ezekiel:17:24 @ And all the trees of the field shall know that I the Lord have made low the high tree, have made high the lowly tree, that I have dried up the green tree, and have caused to flourish the dry tree: I the Lord have spoken and have done it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:22 @ But I withdrew my hand, and acted for the sake of my name, so as not to profane it before the eyes of the nations, before whose eyes I had brought them forth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:23 @ I also lifted up my hand unto them in the wilderness, that I would scatter them among the nations, and disperse them through the countries;

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:26 @ And I let them be defiled through their gifts, in that they caused to pass all that openeth the womb, in order that I might destroy them, to the end that they might know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:27 @ Therefore, speak unto the house of Israel, O son of man, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Yet in this too did your fathers blaspheme me, by their committing a trespass against me:

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:28 @ When I had brought them into the land, for which I had lifted up my hand to give it to them, they saw every high hill, and all the thick–branched trees, and they offered there their sacrifices, and presented there their provoking offerings, and they brought there their sweet savor, and poured out there their drink–offerings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:29 @ Then said I unto them, What is this high–place whereunto ye go? And its name was called "The height" until this day.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:30 @ Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Ha! do you pollute yourselves after the manner of your fathers; and after their abominations do ye go astray?

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:31 @ And when ye offer up your gifts, when ye make your sons pass through the fire, ye pollute yourselves with all your idols, even until this day: and I should allow myself to be inquired of by you, O house of Israel? As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, I will not let myself be inquired of by you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:32 @ And that which cometh up into your mind shall not at all come to pass, that ye say, We will be like the nations, like the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:35 @ And I will bring you into the wilderness of the people, and I will hold judgment over you there, face to face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:37 @ And I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant;

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:38 @ And I will separate from you those that have rebelled, and those that have transgressed against me: out of the country where they sojourn will I cause them to go forth, but into the land of Israel shall not one enter; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:39 @ As for you, O house of Israel, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Go ye, serve ye every one his idols, and hereafter, if ye will not hearken unto me; but my holy name do not profane any more with your gifts, and with your idols.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:40 @ For on my holy mountain, on the mountain of the height of Israel, saith the Lord Eternal, there shall serve me all the house of Israel, altogether, in the land: there will I accept them in favor, and there will I require your heave–offerings, and the first–fruits of your oblations, with all your holy things.

lesserot@Ezekiel:20:42 @ And ye shall know that I am the Lord, when I bring you into the land of Israel, into the country for which I have lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:2 @ And thou, son of man, wilt thou take to task, wilt thou take to task the city of blood? and wilt thou make her know all her abominations?

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:3 @ Then say thou, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, O city that sheddeth blood in her midst, that her time may come, and that hath made idols for herself to become unclean:

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:4 @ Through thy blood which thou hast shed, are thou become guilty; and through thy idols which thou hast made art thou become unclean; and thou hast caused thy days to draw near, and thou art come even unto thy years; therefore do I make thee a disgrace unto the nations, and a mocking to all the countries.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:6 @ Behold, the princes of Israel were each with his arm within thee, in order to shed blood.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:7 @ Father and mother they esteemed lightly within thee, toward the stranger they acted with extortion in the midst of thee, the fatherless and the widow they oppressed within thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:9 @ Tale–bearers were within thee, in order to shed blood; and upon the mountains did they eat within thee; incest did they commit in the midst of thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:12 @ Bribes they took within thee, in order to shed blood; interest and increase didst thou take, and thou didst acquire gain off thy neighbors by extortion: and me thou didst forget, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:13 @ And behold, I have struck my hands together at thy wrongful gain which thou hast acquired, and at thy blood–guilt which hath been in the midst of thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:17 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:18 @ Son of man, the house of Israel are become to me dross: they all are copper, and tin, and iron, and lead, in the midst of the furnace; the dross of silver are they become.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:19 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because ye are all become dross, therefore, behold, I will gather you into the midst of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:20 @ As silver, and copper, and iron, and lead, and tin are gathered into the midst of the furnace, to blow the fire upon it, to melt it: so will I gather you in my anger and in my fury and I will lay you down there, and melt you.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:23 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:24 @ Son of man, say unto her, Thou art a land that is not cleansed; which is not rained upon on the day of indignation.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:27 @ Her princes in her midst are like wolves that tear in pieces the prey, to shed blood, to destroy souls, in order to obtain selfish gain.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:28 @ And her prophets plastered for them with unadhesive mortar, foreseeing falsehood, and divining unto them lies, saying, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal; when the Lord had not spoken.

lesserot@Ezekiel:22:29 @ The people of the land are guilty of extortion, and practise robbery, and the poor and the needy they defraud: and they extort from the stranger with injustice.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:3 @ And they played the harlot in Egypt; in their youth they played the harlot: there were their breasts pressed, and there they suffered their virgin bosoms to be touched.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:8 @ But also her lewdness from Egypt forsook she not; for they had lain with her in her youth, and they had touched her virgin bosom, and had lavished their lewd caresses on her.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:9 @ Therefore did I give her up into the hand of her lovers, into the hand of the sons of Asshur, after whom she longed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:14 @ But she added still more to her acts of lewdness; for when she saw men engraved upon the wall, the images of the Chaldeans portrayed with color,

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:16 @ Then did she long for them as soon as she saw them with her eyes, and she sent messengers unto them to Chaldea.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:17 @ And the sons of Babylon came to her unto the couch of love, and they defiled her with their lewd caresses; and when she had been defiled with them, she tore her soul away from them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:18 @ And when she had laid open her lewdness, and had uncovered her nakedness: then my soul tore itself away from her, as my soul had torn itself away from her sister.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:19 @ Yet she multiplied her deeds of lewdness, in calling to remembrance the days of her youth, when she had played the harlot in the land of Egypt.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:21 @ And thou calledst to mind the incest of thy youth, when thy bosom was touched by the Egyptians for the sake of thy youthful breasts.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:22 @ Therefore, O Aholibah, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will wake up thy lovers against thee, from whom thy soul hath torn itself away, and I will bring them against thee from every side;

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:24 @ And they shall come over thee with weapons, chariots, and wheels, and with an assembly of people, buckler and shield and helmet shall they set up against thee round about: and I will give up before them the right to judge, and they shall judge thee according to their ordinances.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:27 @ Thus will I make thy incest to cease from thee, and thy lewdness brought from the land of Egypt: and thou shalt not lift up thy eyes unto them, and Egypt shalt thou not remember any more.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:28 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will give thee up into the hand of those whom thou hatest, into the hand of those from whom thy soul hath torn itself away;

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:30 @ I will do these things unto thee, because thou hast gone with vile lust after the nations, because thou hast defiled thyself with their idols.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:31 @ On the way of thy sister hast thou walked; therefore will I place her cup into thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:32 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, The cup of thy sister shalt thou drink, the deep and wide one: thou shalt become to be laughed to scorn and to be held in derision, more than thou canst bear.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:33 @ With drunkenness and sorrow shalt thou be filled, the cup of astonishment and confusion, the cup of thy sister Samaria.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:36 @ The Lord said moreover unto me, Son of man, wilt thou call Aholah and Aholibah to account? then tell them of their abominations;

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:37 @ That they have committed adultery, and there is blood on their hands, and with their idols have they committed adultery, and also their sons whom they had born unto me have they caused to pass for them through, to devour them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:38 @ Moreover this have they done unto me: they have defiled my sanctuary on the same day, and my sabbaths have they profaned.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:39 @ And when they had slain their children to their idols, then came they into my sanctuary on the same day to profane it: and, lo, thus have they done in the midst of my house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:40 @ And farthermore yet, because they sent for men who were to come from afar, unto whom messengers were sent; and, lo, they came, for whom thou didst bathe thyself, paint thy eyes, and deck thyself with ornaments;

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:44 @ But men went in unto her, as they go in unto a faithless wife: thus went they in unto Aholah and unto Aholibah, the incestuous women.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:46 @ For thus hath said the Lord Eternal, I will bring up against them an assemblage of men, and I will give them up to ill–usage and plunder.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:47 @ And the assemblage shall stone them with stones, and cut them down with their swords: their sons and their daughters shall they slay, and their houses shall they burn with fire.

lesserot@Ezekiel:23:48 @ Thus will I cause incest to cease out of the land, that all women may be warned by example, and not do after your incestuous course.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me in the ninth year, in the tenth month, on the tenth day of the month, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:3 @ And speak concerning the rebellious family a parable, and say unto them, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Set on the pot, set it on, and also pour water into it;

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:4 @ Gather the proper pieces into it, every good piece, the thigh, and the shoulder; fill it up with the choice bones.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:5 @ Take the choice of the flock, and make also a fire for the bones under it: cause it to seethe well, that even the bones therein may be fully boiled through.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:6 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Woe to the city of blood–guiltiness, to the pot the scum of which is yet in it, and the scum of which is not gone out of it! one of its pieces after the other take out from it: no lot is cast for it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:7 @ For her blood was in the midst of her; on the naked rock did she place it: she poured it not upon the ground, to cover it over with dust.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:8 @ To cause my fury to arise to take vengeance, do I place her blood upon the naked rock, so that it shall not be covered up.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:9 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Woe to the city of blood–guiltiness! I also will myself build up a large burning pile,

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:11 @ Then will I set it empty upon its coals, in order that it may become hot, and its copper be made to glow, and its uncleanness may be molten in it, that its scum may be consumed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:13 @ In thy uncleanness is incest; because I endeavored to cleanse thee, and thou wouldst not be clean, thou shalt not be cleansed from thy uncleanness any more, until I have assuaged my fury on thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:14 @ I the Lord have spoken it; it cometh to pass, and I will do it; I will not recall my decree, and I will not have pity, nor will I repent: according to thy ways, and according to thy doings, shall men judge thee, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:15 @ And the word of the Lord came to me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:17 @ Sigh in silence, make no mourning for the deceased, thy bonnet bind around thy head, and thy shoes put on thy feet, and cover not thyself to thy upper lip, and eat not the bread of men.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:18 @ And when I had spoken unto the people in the morning, my wife died at evening: and I did in the morning as I had been commanded.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:19 @ And the people said unto me, Wilt thou not tell us what these things mean for us, that thou doest so?

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:20 @ And I said unto them, The word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:21 @ Speak unto the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will profane my sanctuary, the pride of your strength, the desire of your eyes, and the darling of your soul: and your sons and your daughters whom ye have left behind shall fall by the sword.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:22 @ And ye shall do as I have done: ye shall not cover yourselves to your upper lip, and the bread of other men shall ye not eat.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:24 @ Thus shall Ezekiel be unto you for a token; in accordance with all that he hath done shall ye do: when this cometh, then shall ye know that I am the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:26 @ On that day there shall come one that hath escaped unto thee, and announce it to thy ears.

lesserot@Ezekiel:24:27 @ On that day shall thy mouth be opened through him that hath escaped, and thou shalt speak, and thou shalt not be silenced any more: and thou shalt be a token unto them, and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:1 @ And the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:3 @ And say unto the sons of ‘Ammon, Hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because thou hast said, Aha, concerning my sanctuary, when it was profaned; and concerning the land of Israel, when it was made desolate; and concerning the house of Judah, when they went into exile:

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:4 @ Therefore, behold, I will give thee up to the children of the east for a possession, and they shall set up their towers in thee, and place in thee their dwellings; they shall indeed eat thy fruit, and they shall surely drink thy milk.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:5 @ And I will change Rabbah into a pasture for camels, and the sons of ‘Ammon into a resting–place for flocks: and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:7 @ Therefore, behold, will I stretch out my hand over thee, and will give thee up for a spoil to the nations; and I will cut thee off from the people, and I will cause thee to perish out of the countries; I will destroy thee, and thou shalt know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:10 @ Unto the children of the east against the sons of ‘Ammon, and I will give them in possession; in order that the sons of ‘Ammon may not be remembered among the nations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:14 @ And I will display my vengeance on Edom by the hand of my people Israel; and they shall do in Edom according to my anger and according to my fury: and they shall feel my vengeance, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:25:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Because the Philistines have acted in revenge, and have taken vengeance with derision in their soul, to destroy out of ancient enmity:

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:1 @ And it came to pass in the eleventh year, on the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:2 @ Son of man, because Tyre hath said concerning Jerusalem, Aha, she is broken that was the gates of the people; she is turned unto me; I shall be made full, now she is laid in ruins:

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:3 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I am against thee, O Tyre, and will bring up against thee many nations, as the sea causeth its waves to come up.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:4 @ And they shall destroy the walls of Tyre, and pull down her towers: I will also flood away her earth from her, and I will change her into a naked rock.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:5 @ A place for the spreading out of nets shall she be in the midst of the sea; for I have spoken it, saith the Lord Eternal: and she shall become a spoil to the nations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:9 @ And his catapults shall he set against thy walls, and thy towers shall he break down with his axes.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:10 @ By reason of the abundance of his horses shall the dust they raise cover thee: by reason of the noise of horsemen, and wheels, and chariots, shall thy walls quake, when he entereth into thy gates, as men enter into a city that is broken in.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:11 @ With the hoofs of his horses shall he tread down all thy streets: thy people will he slay with the sword, and the statues of thy strength shall come down to the ground.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:12 @ And they shall plunder thy riches, and make a spoil of thy merchandise; and they shall break down thy walls, and thy pleasure–houses shall they pull down: and thy stones and thy timber and thy earth shall they throw into the midst of the water.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:13 @ And I will cause the sound of thy songs to cease: and the tones of thy harps shall not be heard any more.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:14 @ And I will change thee into a naked rock; a place to spread out nets upon shalt thou be; thou shalt not be rebuilt any more; for I the Lord have spoken it, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to Tyre, Truly at the noise of thy fall, when the deadly wounded whine, when the slaughter taketh place in the midst of thee, shall the islands quake.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:16 @ Then shall all the princes of the sea come down from their thrones, and lay aside their robes, and their broidered garments shall they put off: with trembling shall they clothe themselves; upon the ground shall they sit, and shall tremble at every moment, and be astonished concerning thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:17 @ And they shall lift up over thee a lamentation, and say to thee, How art thou lost, that wast inhabited by reason of the seas: O renowned city, which was strong on the sea, she and her inhabitants, who caused their terror to be on all that dwelt around her!

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:20 @ Then will I bring thee down with those that descend into the pit, unto the people of olden time, and I will cause thee to dwell in the land of the nether world, among ruins of ancient days, with those that go down to the pit, in order that thou mayest not be inhabited; but I will bestow glory in the land of life.

lesserot@Ezekiel:26:21 @ As though thou hadst not been will I render thee, and thou shalt be no more: and thou shalt be sought for, but thou shalt never be found any more to eternity, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:5 @ Of the fir–trees from Senir had they built thee all thy woodwork: cedars from Lebanon had they taken to make masts for thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:7 @ Fine linen with broidered work from Egypt was thy flag to be unto thee a sign: of blue and purple from the isles of Ellishah was thy cover.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:9 @ The elders of Gebal and her wise men were in thee thy caulkers: all the ships of the sea with their mariners were in thee to carry on thy commerce.

lesserot@Ezekiel:27:11 @ The men of Arvad with thy army were upon thy walls round about, and the Gammadim were in thy towers: their quivers they hung upon thy walls round about; these made perfect thy beauty.

lesserot@Ezekiel:28:17 @ Thy heart was lifted up through thy beauty, thou didst corrupt thy wisdom by reason of thy elegance: I cast thee down to the ground, before kings did I set thee that they might gaze on thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:28:18 @ Through the abundance of thy iniquities, through the wickedness of thy commerce didst thou profane thy sanctuaries: therefore brought I forth fire from the midst of thee, this devoured thee, and I changed thee to ashes upon the earth before the eyes of all those that saw thee.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:4 @ The waters made it great, the deep made it high, with its rivers it was flowing round the place where it was planted, and its ditches it sent forth unto all the trees of the field.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:8 @ The cedars could not obscure it in the garden of God; the firs were not like its boughs, and the chestnut–trees were not like its branches: not any tree in the garden of God was like unto it in its beauty.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:11 @ Therefore do I give it up into the hand of the mighty one of the nations; he shall surely deal with it at his pleasure; for its wickedness do I drive it out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:12 @ And strangers, the fiercest of nations, cut it down, and cast it to the ground: on the mountains and in all the valleys fall its light branches, and its boughs are broken in all the ravines of the land; and all the people of the earth are gone away from its shade, and have cast it to the ground.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:14 @ In order that none of all the trees by the waters shall exalt themselves for their height, nor place their highest branch among the thick–boughed trees, and that all those that are nourished by water shall not place themselves erect, because of their height; for they are all given up unto death, to the land of the nether world, in the midst of the children of men, with those that go down to the pit.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:15 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, On the day when it went down to the grave I caused a mourning; I covered the deep for its sake, and I restrained its rivers, and the great waters were withheld; and I caused Lebanon to be clothed in black attire for its sake, and all the trees of the field were famished because of it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:31:16 @ Through the noise of its downfall I caused nations to quake, when I cast it down into the tomb with the that descend into the pit: and in the land of the nether world comforted themselves all the trees of ‘Eden, the choice and best of Lebanon, all that were nourished by water.

lesserot@Ezekiel:32:12 @ By the swords of the mighty will I cause thy multitude to fall, the fiercest of nations are all of them: and they shall destroy the pride of Egypt, and all her multitude shall be annihilated.

lesserot@Ezekiel:32:13 @ And I will cause to vanish all her beasts from beside the great waters; and the foot of man shall not make them turbid any more, nor shall the hoofs of beasts make them turbid.

lesserot@Ezekiel:32:14 @ Then will I make clear their waters, and cause their rivers to flow like oil, saith the Lord Eternal;

lesserot@Ezekiel:32:25 @ In the midst of the slain have they set a couch for her with all her multitude; all round about are her graves; all of them are uncircumcised, slain by the sword; because their terror was once spread in the land of the living; and they have borne their confusion with those that go down to the pit: in the midst of the slain was she placed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:32:27 @ And those who are fallen of the uncircumcised shall not lie with the mighty, who are gone down to the nether world with their weapons of war, while men laid their swords under their heads, and the their iniquities were upon their bones; for the terror of the mighty was in the land of the living.

lesserot@Ezekiel:32:29 @ There are Edom, her kings, and all her princes, who are laid despite their prowess by those that are slain by the sword: they shall lie with the uncircumcised, and with those that go down to the pit.

lesserot@Ezekiel:32:30 @ There are the chieftains of the north, all of them, and all the Zidonians, who are gone down with the slain: despite the terror they excited through their prowess are they made ashamed; and they lie uncircumcised with those that are slain by the sword, and bear their confusion with those that go down to the pit.

lesserot@Ezekiel:33:7 @ But as for thee, O son of man, I have appointed thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: so that when thou hearest a word from my mouth, thou shalt warn them from me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:33:8 @ When I say unto the wicked, O wicked one, thou shalt surely die; and thou dost not speak to warn the wicked from his way: that wicked one shall die for his iniquity; but his blood will I require from thy hand.

lesserot@Ezekiel:33:9 @ Nevertheless, if thou hast indeed warned the wicked of his way to turn away from it, and he do not turn from his way: he shall certainly die for his iniquity; but thou hast delivered thy soul.

lesserot@Ezekiel:33:10 @ But thou, O son of man, speak unto the house of Israel, Thus do ye speak, saying, Truly our transgressions and our sins are upon us, and through them do we pine away: how then shall we live?

lesserot@Ezekiel:33:11 @ Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but in the return of the wicked from his way that he may live: return ye, return ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?

lesserot@Ezekiel:33:12 @ But thou, son of man, say unto the children of thy people, The righteousness of the righteous shall not deliver him on the day of his transgression; and as for the wickedness of the wicked, he shall not stumble through it on the day that he returneth from his wickedness; nor shall the righteous be able to live through the other on the day that he sinneth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:33:13 @ When I say of the righteous, that he shall surely live, and he trusteth to his own righteousness, and committeth what is wrong: all his righteous deeds shall not be remembered, and for his wrong that he hath committed,––through this shall he die.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:5 @ And they were scattered for want of a shepherd; and they became food unto all the beasts of the field, and they were scattered.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:6 @ My sheep have to wander about on all the mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, over all the face of the land are my flock scattered, and there is none that inquireth and none that seeketh.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:8 @ As I live, saith the Lord Eternal, surely because my flock became a prey, and my flock became food unto every beast of the field, because there was no shepherd, and my shepherds did not inquire for my flock, but the shepherds fed themselves, and my flock they fed not:

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:10 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Behold, I will be against the shepherds, and I will require my flock from their hand, and I will stop them from feeding the flock; neither shall the shepherds feed themselves any more: and I will deliver my flock out of their mouth, that they may not serve them for food.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:13 @ And I will bring them out from the people, and gather them from the countries, and I will bring them to their own land; and I will feed them upon the mountains of Israel, in the ravines, and in all the inhabited places of the country.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:15 @ I myself will feed my flock, and I myself will cause them to lie down, saith the Lord Eternal.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:18 @ Is it too little for you that ye can feed on the good pasture, that ye must tread down the residue of your pastures with your feet? and that ye can drink clear waters, that ye must render muddy with your feet what is left?

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:20 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal unto them, Behold, I am here, and I will judge between the fat lamb and the lean lamb.

lesserot@Ezekiel:34:23 @ And I will appoint over them one shepherd, and he shall feed them, namely, my servant David: he it is that shall feed them, and he it is that shall be unto them for a shepherd.

lesserot@Ezekiel:35:15 @ As thou didst rejoice over the inheritance of the house of Israel, because it was made desolate: so will I do unto thee; desolate shalt thou be, O mountain of Se’ir, and all Idumea––altogether; and they shall know that I am the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:4 @ Therefore, O mountains of Israel, hear ye the word of the Lord Eternal, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal to the mountains, and to the hills, to the ravines, and to the valleys, to the desolate ruins, and to the cities that are forsaken, which are become a prey and derision to the residue of the nations that are round about:

lesserot@Ezekiel:36:5 @ Therefore thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Surely in the fire of my jealousy have I spoken against the residue of the nations, and against all Idumea, that have appropriated my land unto themselves as a possession with the joy of all their heart, with derision in their soul, in order to drive it out that it may be for a prey.

lesserot@Ezekiel:39:14 @ And men constantly devoted to this shall they set apart to pass through the land, to bury with those that pass through those that remain upon the face of the earth, to cleanse it; at the end of seven months shall they make a search.

lesserot@Ezekiel:39:23 @ And the nations shall know that for their iniquity did the house of Israel go into exile; because they had trespassed against me, and I had hidden my face from them; and I gave them up therefore into the hand of their oppressors, and they all fell by the sword.

lesserot@Ezekiel:39:24 @ According to their uncleanness, and according to their transgressions did I deal with them, and hid my face from them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:39:26 @ And they shall feel their disgrace, and all their trespass whereby they had trespassed against me, when they dwelt in their land in safety, with none to make them afraid:

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:2 @ In the visions of God brought he me unto the land of Israel, and set me down upon a very high mount, on which there was built something like a city on the south.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:4 @ And the man spoke unto me, Son of man, behold with thy eyes, and hear with thy ears, and direct thy heart unto all that I am about to show thee; for in order to show it unto thee art thou brought hither: tell all that thou seest to the house of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:6 @ Then came he unto the gate which looked in the direction toward the east, and went up its steps, and measured the threshold of the gate, one rod in breadth, and the other threshold one rod in breadth.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:13 @ And he measured the gate from the roof of cell to the roof of, in breadth five and twenty cubits, one door being against door.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:17 @ Then brought he me into the outward court, and, lo, there were chambers, and a pavement made for the court all round about: thirty chambers were upon the pavement.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:19 @ Then measured he the breadth from the front of the lower gate unto the front of the inner court, without, one hundred cubits, eastward and northward.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:22 @ And its windows, and its porches, and their palm–shaped capitals, were after the measure of the gate that looked in an eastern direction: and by seven steps did they go up unto it, and to its porches which were before them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:23 @ And the gates of the inner court were opposite the gates on the north, and on the east: and he measured from gate to gate one hundred cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:24 @ After that he led me forth to the south side, and behold there was a gate on the south side: and he measured its door–posts and its porches after these measures.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:31 @ And its porches were toward the outer court; and palm–shaped capitals were upon its door–posts: and its ascent was by eight steps.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:32 @ And he brought me into the inner court on the east side; and he measured the gate after these measures;

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:33 @ And its cells and its door–posts, and its porches, were according to these measures; and there were windows in it and in its porches all round about: its length was fifty cubits, and its breadth five and twenty cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:39 @ And in the porch of the gate were two tables on this side, and two tables on that side, to slaughter thereon the burnt–offerings and the sin–offerings and the trespass–offerings.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:40 @ And at the side without, as one went up to the entrance of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side of the porch of the gate were two tables;

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:42 @ And there were four tables of hewn stone for the burnt–offerings, of a cubit and a half long, and a cubit and a half broad, and one cubit high: whereupon they laid the instruments wherewith they slaughtered the burnt–offerings and the sacrifices.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:44 @ And without the inner gate were the chambers of the singers in the inner court, which was at the side of the north gate; and their front was toward the south side: one was at the side of the east gate having the front toward the north side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:45 @ And he spoke unto me, This chamber, the front of which is toward the south, is for the priests who have the charge of the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:46 @ And the chamber, the front of which is toward the north, is for the priests who have the charge of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok, who come near, from among the sons of Levi, to the Lord to minister unto him.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:48 @ And he brought me to the porch of the house, and measured each door–post of the porch, five cubits on this side, and five cubits on that side: and the breadth of the gate was three cubits on this side, and three cubits on that side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:40:49 @ The length of the porch was twenty cubits, and the breadth eleven cubits, together with the steps whereby they went up to it: and there were pillars by the door–posts, one on this side, and another on that side.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:1 @ And he brought me to the temple: and he measured the door–posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, the breadth of the tabernacle.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:4 @ And he measured its length, twenty cubits; and the breadth, twenty cubits, fronting on the temple: and he said unto me, This is the most holy place.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:6 @ And the side–chambers were one over another, three and thirty times; and they entered into the wall which was on the house for the side–chambers all round about, that they might be fastened on, but they were not fastened on the wall of the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:7 @ And as one wound upward it became continually wider for the side–chambers; for the row of chambers about the house went more and more upward round about the house; therefore was the breadth of the house greater upward: and so they ascended from the lowest chambers to the highest through the middle ones.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:16 @ The thresholds, and the narrow windows, and the corner–pillars were round about on their three sides: opposite the threshold there was a wainscoting of wood all round about, and so from the ground up to the windows; and the windows were covered.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:19 @ So that a human face was toward the palm–tree on the one side, and a young lion’s face toward the palm–tree on the other side: it was so made on all the house round about.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:20 @ From the ground to the part above the door were the cherubim and the palm–trees made, and so on the wall of the temple.

lesserot@Ezekiel:41:22 @ The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length was two cubits; and its corners, and its top–piece, and its walls, were of wood: and he spoke unto me, This is the table that is before the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:1 @ And he led me forth into the outer court, on the way to the north side; and he brought me into the chambers that was opposite the main wing, and which was opposite the building toward the north;

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:3 @ Opposite the twenty cubits which were for the inner court, and opposite the pavement which was for the outer court, was corner–pillar before corner–pillar in the three stories.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:4 @ And before the chambers was a walk of ten cubits in breadth toward the inner house, a way of one cubit; and their doors were toward the north.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:6 @ For they were in three stories, but had not pillars like the pillars of the courts: therefore was something taken off the lowest and the middle ones from the ground.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:7 @ And the wall that was without alongside the chambers, toward the outer court in front of the chambers, was in its length fifty cubits.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:9 @ And beneath these chambers was the entrance from the east side, as one goeth into them from the outer court.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:12 @ And so also were the doors of the chambers that were on the south side, a door being on the head of the way, of the way directly before the wall on the east side, as one entereth into them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:13 @ And he said unto me, The north chambers and the south chambers which are in front of the main wing,––these are the holy chambers, where the priests that approach unto the Lord shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, namely, the meat–offering, and the sin–offering, and the trespass–offering; for the place is holy.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:14 @ When the priests enter therein, then shall they not go out of the sanctuary into the outer court; but there shall they lay down their garments wherein they may have ministered; for they are holy: and they shall put on other garments, and shall then approach to which is for the people.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:19 @ He turned about to the west side, and measured five hundred rods with the measuring–rod.

lesserot@Ezekiel:42:20 @ On the four sides did he measure it by the wall that was all round about, five hundred rods in length, and in breadth five hundred, to make a separation between the holy place and the profane.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:1 @ Then did he lead me to the gate, even the gate that was turned in an eastern direction.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:3 @ And it was like the appearance of the vision which I had seen, yea, like the vision that I had seen when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I had seen by the river Kebar: and I fell upon my face.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:4 @ And the glory of the Lord came into the house by the way of the gate which was turned in an eastern direction.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:5 @ Then did the Spirit take me up, and bring me into the inner court: and, behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:6 @ And I heard him speaking unto me out of the house; and a man was standing alongside of me.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:7 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, is the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever: and the house of Israel shall not defile any more my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their lewdness, nor by the carcasses of their kings on their high–places.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:9 @ Now will they have to put away their lewdness, and the carcasses of their kings, far from me, and I will dwell in the midst of them for ever.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:12 @ This is the law for the house, Upon the top of the mount shall its whole limit all round about be most holy: behold, this is the law for the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:13 @ And these are the measures of the altar in cubits, The cubit is a cubit and a hand–breadth; and the bottom shall be a cubit high, and a cubit broad, and its border on its edge round about shall be a span: and this shall be the outside of the altar.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:14 @ And from the bottom upon the ground up to the lower projection shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser projection up to the greater projection shall be four cubits, and the breadth one cubit.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:17 @ And the projection shall be fourteen cubits in length, by fourteen in breadth on its four sides; and the border round about it shall be half a cubit; and its bottom shall be a cubit round about; and its steps shall look toward the east.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:18 @ And he said unto me, Son of man, thus hath said the Lord Eternal, These are the statutes of the altar on the day when it shall be finished, to offer thereon burnt–offerings, and to sprinkle thereon blood.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:19 @ And thou shalt give to the priests the Levites that are of the seed of Zadok, who approach unto me, saith the Lord Eternal, to minister unto me, a young bullock for a sin–offering.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:20 @ And thou shalt take of his blood, and put it on its four horns, and on the four corners of the projection, and upon the border round about; and thou shalt cleanse it and make an atonement for it.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:24 @ And thou shalt bring them near before the Lord, and the priests shall throw salt upon them, and they shall offer them up as a burnt–offering unto the Lord.

lesserot@Ezekiel:43:26 @ Seven days shall they atone for the altar and purify it; and they shall consecrate the same.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:1 @ And he brought me back by the way of the outer gate of the sanctuary which looked toward the east: and it was locked.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:2 @ Then said the Lord unto me, This gate shall remain locked, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because the Lord, the God of Israel, hath entered in by it, therefore shall it remain locked.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:3 @ As for the prince, being the prince, he shall sit in it to eat bread before the Lord: by the way of the porch of that gate shall he enter, and by the way of the same shall he go out.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:5 @ And the Lord said unto me, Son of man, direct thy mind, and see with thy eyes, and hear with thy ears all that I am speaking with thee concerning all the ordinances of the house of the Lord, and of all its laws; and direct thy mind to the entrance of the house, with every place of egress of the sanctuary.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:6 @ And thou shalt say to the rebellious, to the house of Israel, Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, Ye have done enough with all your abominations, O house of Israel!

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:7 @ In your having brought the sons of the stranger, uncircumcised in heart, and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to pollute it, even my house, while you were offering my food, the fat and the blood: so that they broke my covenant because of all your abominations.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:9 @ Thus hath said the Lord Eternal, No son of the stranger, uncircumcised in heart, or uncircumcised in flesh, shall enter into my sanctuary, of all the sons of the stranger that are in the midst of the children of Israel.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:11 @ And they shall be in my sanctuary, servants, appointed to watch at the gates of the house, and to be servants for the house: these are they that shall slay the burnt–offerings and the sacrifices for the people, and they shall stand before them to do the service for them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:12 @ Because that they used to serve them before their idols, and have been unto the house of Israel as a stumbling–block of iniquity; therefore have I lifted up my hand against them, saith the Lord Eternal, and they shall bear their iniquity;

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:13 @ And they shall not come near unto me, to officiate as priests unto me, nor to come near to any of my holy things, to the most holy things; but they shall bear their shame, yea, for their abominations which they have committed.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:14 @ And I will appoint them to be keepers of the charge of the house, for all the service thereof, and for all that shall be done therein.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:15 @ But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, that kept the charge of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me,––these are they that shall come near unto me to minister unto me, and they shall stand before me to offer unto me the fat and the blood, saith the Lord Eternal:

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:16 @ These are they that shall enter into my sanctuary, and these shall come near to my table, to minister unto me; and they shall keep my charge.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:17 @ And it shall come to pass, that, when they enter in at the gates of the inner court, they shall clothe themselves with linen garments; and there shall no wool come upon them, when they minister in the gates of the inner court, and within the house.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:19 @ And when they go forth into the outer court, into the outer court to the people: then shall they put off their garments wherein they have ministered, and they shall lay them down in the holy chambers; and they shall put on other garments, and they shall not mingle among the people with their garments.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:20 @ And their heads shall they not shave close, nor suffer their hair to grow long: they shall only crop their heads.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:21 @ And wine shall none of the priests drink when they enter into the inner court.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:22 @ And a widow, or one that is divorced from her husband shall they not take to themselves as wives; but only virgins of the seed of the house of Israel; but whatever widow it may be, the priests may take.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:23 @ And my people shall they teach the difference between the holy and profane, and that between the unclean and the clean shall they make known unto them.

lesserot@Ezekiel:44:24 @ And in a controversy shall they stand up to judge, according to my ordinances shall they decide it: and my laws and my statutes at all my festivals shall they observe, and my sabbaths shall they sanctify.

lesserot@Daniel:1:1 @ In the third year of the reign of Jehoyakim the king of Judah came Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon unto Jerusalem, and besieged it.

lesserot@Daniel:1:2 @ And the Lord gave up into his hand Yehoyakim the king of Judah, with part of the vessels of the house of God: and he brought them into the land of Shin’ar into the house of his god, namely, he brought the vessels into the treasure–house of his god.

lesserot@Daniel:1:3 @ And the king said unto Ashpenas, the chief of his eunuchs, that he should bring out of the children of Israel, and of the royal seed, and of the nobles,

lesserot@Daniel:1:4 @ lads in whom there should be no kind of blemish, but who should be handsome in appearance, and intelligent in all wisdom, and acquainted with knowledge, and understanding science, and such as should have the ability to serve in the king’s palace, and that these should be taught the learning and the language of the Chaldeans.

lesserot@Daniel:1:5 @ And the king ordered for them a daily provision for its day of the king’s food, and of the wine which he drank, and to educate them three years, so that at the end thereof they should serve before the king.

lesserot@Daniel:1:7 @ And the chief of the eunuchs assigned them names; and he assigned to Daniel the name of Belteshazzar; and to Chananyah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to ‘Azaryah, of ‘Abed–nego.

lesserot@Daniel:1:8 @ But Daniel resolved in his heart that he would not defile himself with the food of the king, nor with the wine which he drank: and therefore he requested of the chief of the eunuchs that he might not need to defile himself.

lesserot@Daniel:1:10 @ And the chief of the eunuchs said unto Daniel, I fear my lord the king, who hath ordered your food and your drink; for why should he see your face sadder looking than that of the lads who are of your age? and ye would thus endanger my head with the king.

lesserot@Daniel:1:11 @ Then said Daniel to the steward whom the chief of the eunuchs had given charge over Daniel, Chananyah, Mishael, and ‘Azaryah,

lesserot@Daniel:1:12 @ Prove, I beseech thee, thy servants, ten days; and let them give us vegetables to eat, and water to drink;

lesserot@Daniel:1:14 @ And he hearkened unto them in this matter, and proved them ten days.

lesserot@Daniel:1:16 @ And the steward took away their food, and the wine that they were to drink, and gave them vegetables.

lesserot@Daniel:1:21 @ And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.

lesserot@Daniel:2:2 @ Then said the king to call the magicians, and the astrologers and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, to solve for the king his dreams: and they came and placed themselves before the king.

lesserot@Daniel:2:3 @ And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit is troubled to know the dream.

lesserot@Daniel:2:4 @ Then spoke the Chaldeans to the king in Aramic, O king, live for ever: recite the dream to thy servants, and we will tell the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:5 @ The king answered and said to the Chaldeans, The decree is firmly resolved on by me: If ye do not make known unto me the dream with its interpretation, ye shall be cut in pieces, and your houses shall be changed into a dunghill.

lesserot@Daniel:2:7 @ They answered the second time and said, Let the king recite the dream to his servants, and we will tell its interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:8 @ The king answered and said, I know of a certainty that ye wish to gain time, because ye see the decree is firmly resolved on by me:

lesserot@Daniel:2:9 @ That if ye do not make known unto me the dream, there is but one sentence for you; for ye have prepared lying and deceptive words to speak before me, till the time be changed. Therefore relate to me the dream, and I shall know that ye can tell me its interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:12 @ For all this cause the king became angry, and very furious; and he commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:13 @ And the law went forth and the wise men were slain: and they sought Daniel and his companions to slay them.

lesserot@Daniel:2:14 @ Then made Daniel representations with intelligence and prudence to Aryoch the captain of the king’s guard, who was gone forth to slay the wise men of Babylon.

lesserot@Daniel:2:15 @ He commenced and said to Aryoch the king’s commander, Wherefore is the law so hasty from the king? Then made Aryoch the matter known to Daniel.

lesserot@Daniel:2:16 @ But Daniel went in, and requested of the king that he would give him time, that he might tell the interpretation to the king.

lesserot@Daniel:2:17 @ Then went Daniel to his house, and made the matter known to Chananyah, Mishael, and ‘Azaryah, his companions.

lesserot@Daniel:2:19 @ Thereupon was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a vision of the night. Then did Daniel bless the God of heaven.

lesserot@Daniel:2:20 @ Daniel commenced and said, May the name of God be blessed from eternity and to all eternity; for wisdom and might are his;

lesserot@Daniel:2:21 @ And he changeth times and seasons; he removeth kings, and raiseth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to those that possess understanding.

lesserot@Daniel:2:23 @ To thee, O God of my father, do I give thanks, and I praise thee, who hast given me wisdom and might, and because thou hast made known unto me what we prayed for of thee; for thou hast made known unto us the king’s matter.

lesserot@Daniel:2:24 @ Therefore did Daniel go in unto Aryoch, whom the king had ordered to destroy the wise men of Babylon, He went and said thus unto him, the wise men of Babylon must thou not destroy: bring me before the king, and I will tell unto the king the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:25 @ Then did Aryoch bring Daniel before the king in haste, and thus he said unto him, Here have I found a man out of the children of the exiles of Judah, who will make known unto the king the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:2:26 @ The king answered and said to Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, Art thou able to make known unto me the dream which I have seen, and its interpretation?

lesserot@Daniel:2:27 @ Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king hath demanded no wise men, astrologers, magicians, or soothsayers, can tell unto the king;

lesserot@Daniel:2:28 @ But there is a God in heaven that revealeth secrets, and he hath made known to king Nebuchadnezzar what is to be in the latter days. Thy dream, and the visions of thy head upon thy couch, were these.

lesserot@Daniel:2:29 @ As for thee, O king, thy thoughts, when thou wast on thy couch, rose concerning what is to come to pass hereafter; and the Revealer of secrets hath made known to thee what is to come to pass.

lesserot@Daniel:2:30 @ But as for me, this secret hath not been revealed to me because of any wisdom that is in me more than in all other living; but for the sake that men might make known the interpretation to the king, and that thou mightest understand the thoughts of thy heart.

lesserot@Daniel:2:31 @ Thou, O king, sawest, and behold there was a large image; this image was mighty, and its brightness was excellent; it stood opposite to thee; and its form was fear–inspiring.

lesserot@Daniel:2:34 @ Thou didst look on till the moment that a stone tore itself loose, not through hands, and it struck the image upon its feet that were of iron and clay, and ground them to pieces.

lesserot@Daniel:2:35 @ Then were the iron, the clay, the copper, the silver, and the gold ground up together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing–floors; and the wind carried them away, that no trace was found of them; and the stone that had stricken the image became a mighty mountain, and filled the whole earth.

lesserot@Daniel:2:37 @ Thou, O king, art a king of kings, to whom the God of heaven hath given kingdom, power, and strength, and honor:

lesserot@Daniel:2:38 @ And wheresoever the children of men dwell, hath he given the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven into thy hand, and hath made thee ruler over them all. Thou art the head of gold.

lesserot@Daniel:2:39 @ And after thee there will arise another kingdom inferior to thee; and another third kingdom of copper, which will bear rule over all the earth.

lesserot@Daniel:2:41 @ And that thou sawest the feet and toes, and part of them of potter’s clay, and part of them of iron, that it will be a divided kingdom, although there will be in it of the strength of the iron; forasmuch as thou sawest the iron mingled with miry clay.

lesserot@Daniel:2:42 @ And as the toes of the feet were part of them of iron, and part of them of clay: so will the kingdom be partly strong and partly brittle.

lesserot@Daniel:2:43 @ And whereas thou sawest iron mingled with miry clay: so will they mingle themselves among the seed of men; but they will not cleave firmly one to another, even as iron cannot be mingled with clay.

lesserot@Daniel:2:44 @ But in the days of these kings will the God of heaven set up a kingdom: which shall to eternity not be destroyed, and its rule shall not be transferred to any other people; it will grind up and make an end of all these kingdoms, while it will itself endure for ever.

lesserot@Daniel:2:45 @ Whereas thou sawest that out of the mountain a stone tore itself loose, not through hands, and that it ground up the iron, the copper, the clay, the silver, and the gold: the great God hath made known to the king what is to come to pass after this. And the dream is reliable, and its interpretation certain.

lesserot@Daniel:2:46 @ Then did king Nebuchadnezzar fall upon his face, and he bowed down to Daniel, and ordered that they should offer an oblation and sweet odors unto him.

lesserot@Daniel:2:47 @ The king answered unto Daniel, and said, Of a truth it is, that your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and the revealer of secrets; because thou hast been able to reveal this secret.

lesserot@Daniel:3:2 @ And king Nebuchadnezzar sent to assemble lieutenants, the superintendents, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, those learned in the law, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which king Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

lesserot@Daniel:3:3 @ Thereupon were assembled the lieutenants, the superintendents, and the governors, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellors, those learned in the law, and all the rulers of the provinces unto the dedication of the image that king Nebuchadnezzar had set up; and they stood opposite to the image that Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

lesserot@Daniel:3:4 @ Then a herald called out with a loud voice, To you it is commanded, O people, nations, and languages,

lesserot@Daniel:3:5 @ That at the time when ye do hear the sound of the cornet, flute, guitar, harp, psaltery, bagpipe, and all kinds of music, ye shall fall down and bow yourselves to the golden image which king Nebuchadnezzar hath set up:

lesserot@Daniel:3:6 @ And whoso doth not fall down and bow himself shall in the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:7 @ Therefore at the same time, when all the people heard the sound of the cornet, flute, guitar, harp, psaltery, and all kinds of music, all the people, the nations, and the languages fell down bowing themselves to the golden image which king Nebuchadnezzar had set up.

lesserot@Daniel:3:9 @ They commenced and said to king Nebuchadnezzar, O king, live for ever.

lesserot@Daniel:3:10 @ Thou, O king, hadst made a decree, that every man that should hear the sound of the cornet, flute, guitar, harp, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, should fall down and bow himself to the golden image;

lesserot@Daniel:3:11 @ And that whoso should not fall down and bow himself should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:12 @ There are certain Jewish men whom thou hast appointed over the public service of the province of Babylon, Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego: these men, O king, have not paid any regard to thee; thy god they do not worship, and to the golden image which thou hast set up they do not bow themselves.

lesserot@Daniel:3:13 @ Then ordered Nebuchadnezzar in rage and fury to bring Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego. Then were these men brought before the king.

lesserot@Daniel:3:14 @ Nebuchadnezzar commenced and said unto them, Is it out of disrespect, O Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego? My god ye do not worship, and to the golden image which I have set up ye do not bow yourselves?

lesserot@Daniel:3:15 @ Now then if ye be ready at the time when ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, guitar, psaltery, and bagpipe, and all kinds of music, to fall down and bow yourselves to the image which I have made,; but if ye bow yourselves not, ye shall be cast in the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace: and who is the God that can deliver you out of my hand?

lesserot@Daniel:3:16 @ Then answered Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer thee a word in this matter.

lesserot@Daniel:3:17 @ Behold, there is our God whom we worship, he is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace: and out of thy hand, O king, will he deliver us.

lesserot@Daniel:3:18 @ But if not, then be it known unto thee, O king, that thy god will we not worship, and to the golden image which; thou hast set up will we not bow ourselves.

lesserot@Daniel:3:19 @ Then was Nebuchadnezzar filled with fury, and the form of his countenance was changed because of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego; he commenced and ordered that they should heat the furnace thoroughly seven times more than it was wont to be heated.

lesserot@Daniel:3:20 @ And he ordered the mightiest men in strength that were in his army, to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, to cast them into the burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:21 @ Then were these men bound in their mantles, their under–garments, and their turbans, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:23 @ And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.

lesserot@Daniel:3:24 @ Then was king Nebuchadnezzar astonished, and he rose up in haste, commenced, and said unto his counsellors, Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, Certainly, O king.

lesserot@Daniel:3:26 @ Then came Nebuchadnezzar near to the door of the burning fiery furnace, commenced, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, ye servants of the most high God, step forth, and come hither. Then stepped Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego forth out of the midst of the fire.

lesserot@Daniel:3:27 @ And the lieutenants, superintendents, and governors, and the king’s counsellors, being assembled together, saw these men, over whose bodies the fire had had no power, and the hair of whose head was not singed, whose mantles were not changed, and on whom there was not come the smell of fire.

lesserot@Daniel:3:28 @ Then commenced Nebuchadnezzar, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that had trusted in him, and had transgressed the king’s word, and yielded up their bodies, that they might not worship no bow themselves to any god, except their own God.

lesserot@Daniel:3:29 @ Therefore do I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, that may speak any thing disrespectful against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and ‘Abed–nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be changed into a dunghill; because there is no other God that can deliver like this one.

lesserot@Daniel:5:2 @ Belshazzar ordered, through the counsel of the wine, to bring in the golden and silver vessels which his father Nebuchadnezzar had taken away out of the temple which was in Jerusalem: that the king, and his lords, his wives, and his concubines, might drink therefrom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:4 @ They drank wine, and praised their gods of gold, and of silver, of copper, of iron, of wood, and of stone.

lesserot@Daniel:5:5 @ At that same hour came forth fingers of a man’s hand, and wrote opposite to the chandelier upon the plaster of the wall of the king’s palace: and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote.

lesserot@Daniel:5:7 @ the king called with might to bring in the astrologers, the Chaldeans, and the soothsayers. The king commenced, and said to the wise men of Babylon, Whatsoever man will read this writing, and tell me its interpretation, shall be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about his neck, and shall rule as the third in the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:8 @ Then came in all the wise men of the king; but they were not able to read the writing, nor to make its interpretation known to the king.

lesserot@Daniel:5:10 @ the queen in consequence of the words of the king and of his lords came into the banquet–house; the queen commenced and said, O king, live for ever; let thy thoughts not trouble thee, nor let thy color be changed:

lesserot@Daniel:5:12 @ Forasmuch as a superior spirit, and knowledge, and intelligence, interpreting of dreams, and solving of riddles, and of untying knotty, were found in him, in Daniel, to whom the king assigned the name of Belteshazzar: now let Daniel be called, and he will tell the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:5:13 @ Then was Daniel brought in before the king: the king commenced and said unto Daniel, Art thou Daniel, who art of the children of the exiles of Judah, whom the king my father brought out of Judah?

lesserot@Daniel:5:15 @ And now the wise men, the astrologers, had been brought before me, that they should read this writing, and make known unto me its interpretation; but they were not able to tell the interpretation of the matter.

lesserot@Daniel:5:16 @ But I have truly heard concerning thee, that thou art able to give interpretations, and untie knotty: now if thou art able to read the writing, and make known to me its interpretation, thou shalt be clothed with purple, with a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt rule as the third in the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:5:17 @ Then answered Daniel and said before the king, Let thy gifts remain in thy possession, and bestow thy bounty on another: nevertheless will I read the writing unto the king, and make known to him the interpretation.

lesserot@Daniel:5:18 @ O thou king! the most high God gave kingdom, and greatness, and glory, and honor unto Nebuchadnezzar thy father;

lesserot@Daniel:5:19 @ And because of the greatness that he had given unto him, all people, nations, and languages trembled and shook before him: whom he pleased he slew; and whom he pleased he kept alive; and whom he pleased he lifted up; and whom he pleased he brought low.

lesserot@Daniel:5:20 @ But, when his heart was lifted up, and his spirit hardened to deal presumptuously, he was cast down from the throne of his kingdom, and his dignity did they take from him;

lesserot@Daniel:5:21 @ And from the sons of men was he driven forth, and his heart became equal with the beasts, and with the wild asses was his dwelling; they suffered him to eat herbs like oxen, and with the dew of heaven was his body made wet: till he acknowledged that the most high God ruleth over the kingdom of men, and that he appointeth over it whomsoever he pleaseth.

lesserot@Daniel:5:23 @ But against the Lord of heaven hast thou lifted thyself up; and the vessels of his house have they brought before thee, and thou, and thy lords, thy wives, and thy concubines, have drunk wine from them; and the gods of silver, and gold, of copper, iron, wood, and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor know, hast thou praised; and the God in whose hand thy soul is, and whose are all thy ways, hast thou not glorified:

lesserot@Daniel:5:28 @ P’ress; Thy kingdom hath been divided, and is given to the Medes and Persians.

lesserot@Daniel:7:4 @ the first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings: I looked till its wings were plucked out, and it was lifted up from the earth, and was placed upon its feet as a man, and a human heart was given to it.

lesserot@Daniel:7:5 @ And behold there was another, a second beast, like a bear, and on one side was it placed, with three ribs in its mouth between its teeth: and thus they said unto it, Arise, eat much flesh.

lesserot@Daniel:7:6 @ After this I looked, and lo there was another, like a leopard; and it had four wings of a bird on its back: the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given unto it.

lesserot@Daniel:7:10 @ A stream of fire issued and came forth from before him; thousand times thousands ministered unto him, and myriad times myriads stood before him: they sat down to hold judgment, and the books were opened.

lesserot@Daniel:7:11 @ I looked then, because of the sound of the presumptuous words which the horn had spoken,––I looked till the beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and given over to the burning fire.

lesserot@Daniel:7:12 @ But concerning the rest of the beasts, they had their dominion taken away: yet a longer duration of life was given unto them until the time and period.

lesserot@Daniel:7:14 @ And there were given him dominion, and dignity, and government, and all people, nations, and languages had to serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom is one which shall never be destroyed.

lesserot@Daniel:7:16 @ I came near unto one of those that stood by, and asked him something certain concerning all this: and he spoke to me, and made known unto me the interpretation of the things.

lesserot@Daniel:7:17 @ These great beasts, of which there are four, are four kings, who are to arise on the earth.

lesserot@Daniel:7:18 @ But the saints of the Most High will obtain the kingdom, and possess the kingdom to eternity, even to all eternity for ever.

lesserot@Daniel:7:22 @ Until the Ancient of days came, and procured justice unto the saints of the Most High; and the time came and the saints took possession of the kingdom.

lesserot@Daniel:7:23 @ Thus said he, The fourth beast a fourth kingdom will be upon earth, which is to be different from all kingdoms, and will devour all the earth, and will tread it down, and grind it up.

lesserot@Daniel:7:25 @ And he will speak words against the Most High, and the saints of the Most High will he oppress, and think to change the festivals and the law: and they will be given up into his hand until a time and times and half a time.

lesserot@Daniel:7:26 @ But they will sit down to hold judgment, and they will take away his dominion, to destroy and to annihilate it unto the end.

lesserot@Daniel:7:27 @ And the kingdom and the dominion, and the power over the kingdoms under the whole heaven, will be given to the people of the saints of the Most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all governments are to worship and obey him.

lesserot@Daniel:8:1 @ In the third year of the reign of king Belshazzar a vision appeared unto me, to me Daniel, after that which had appeared unto me at the first.

lesserot@Daniel:8:2 @ And I saw in the vision––and it came to pass, in my seeing, that I was at Shushan the capital, which is in the province of ‘Elam; ––and I saw in the vision, as though I was by the river Ulai.

lesserot@Daniel:8:4 @ I saw the ram butting westward, and northward, and southward; so that all the beasts could not stand before him, and no one was there to deliver out of his hand: and he did according to his will, and became great.

lesserot@Daniel:8:5 @ And as I was looking attentively, behold, there came a shaggy, he–goat from the west over the face of the whole earth, without touching the ground; and the goat had a sightly large horn between his eyes.

lesserot@Daniel:8:7 @ And I saw him coming close unto the ram, and he became bitterly enraged against him, and he struck the ram, and broke his two horns: and there was no power in the ram to stand forward before him: and he cast him down to the ground, and stamped upon him; and there was no one to deliver the ram out of his hand.

lesserot@Daniel:8:8 @ And the shaggy he–goat became very great: but when he was grown strong, the great horn was broken; and there came up four slightly large ones in its place toward the four winds of heaven.

lesserot@Daniel:8:9 @ And out of them came forth a little horn, which became exceedingly great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the glorious land.

lesserot@Daniel:8:10 @ And it became great, even up to the host of the heavens; and it cast down to the ground some of the host and of the stars, and trod them under foot.

lesserot@Daniel:8:11 @ Yea, it magnified itself even up to the prince of the host, and by it the continual sacrifice was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down.

lesserot@Daniel:8:12 @ And the host is given up together with the continual sacrifice, by reason of transgression: and it casteth down the truth to the ground, and it doth, and is prosperous.

lesserot@Daniel:8:13 @ Then did I hear a certain holy one speaking, and a holy one said unto the unknown one who was speaking, For how long is the vision concerning the continual sacrifice, and the wasting transgression, to give up both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?

lesserot@Daniel:8:14 @ And he said unto me, Until two thousand and three hundred evenings and mornings, when the sanctuary shall be justified.

lesserot@Daniel:8:15 @ And it came to pass, when I, even I Daniel, saw the vision, and sought for understanding, that, behold, there was standing opposite to me something like the appearance of a man.

lesserot@Daniel:8:16 @ And I heard the voice of a man between the Ulai, and it called, and said, Gabriel, cause this one to understand this appearance.

lesserot@Daniel:8:17 @ So he came close to where I stood: and when he came, I was terrified, and I fell upon my face; but he said unto me, Mark it well, O son of man; because for the time of the end is the vision.

lesserot@Daniel:8:18 @ Now as he was speaking with me, I fell down in amazement on my face to the ground: but he touched me, and set me upright where I had been standing.

lesserot@Daniel:8:19 @ And he said, Behold, I will make known unto thee what is to be at the last end of the indignation; for it is for the appointed time of the end.

lesserot@Daniel:9:2 @ In the first year of his reign, I Daniel searched in the books for understanding concerning the number of the years whereof the word of the Lord had come to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would let pass full seventy years over the ruins of Jerusalem.

lesserot@Daniel:9:3 @ And I directed my face unto the Lord God, to ask by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and in sackcloth, and ashes.

lesserot@Daniel:9:4 @ And I prayed unto the Lord my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and terrible God, who keepeth the covenant and kindness to those that love him, and to those that keep his commandments:

lesserot@Daniel:9:6 @ Nor have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, who spoke in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.

lesserot@Daniel:9:7 @ Thine, O Lord, is the righteousness, but unto us belongeth the shame of face, as it is this day,––to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, those that are near, and those that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass which they have trespassed against thee.

lesserot@Daniel:9:8 @ O Lord, to us belongeth the shame of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers; because we have sinned against thee.

lesserot@Daniel:9:9 @ To the Lord our God belong mercies and pardonings; for we have rebelled against him;

lesserot@Daniel:9:10 @ And we have not obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us through means of his servants the prophets.

lesserot@Daniel:9:11 @ Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, and have departed so as not to obey thy voice: therefore was poured out over us the curse, with the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God; because we had sinned against him.

lesserot@Daniel:9:13 @ As it is written in the law of Moses; all this evil came over us: yet offered we not any entreaty before the Lord our God, to return from our iniquities, and to become intelligent in thy truth.

lesserot@Daniel:9:16 @ O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thy anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain; because through our sins, and through the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all who are round about us.

lesserot@Daniel:9:17 @ And now listen, O our God, to the prayer of thy servant, and to his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary which is desolate, for the sake of the Lord.

lesserot@Daniel:9:22 @ And he gave me understanding, and spoke with me, and said, O Daniel, now am I come forth to make thee intelligent with understanding.

lesserot@Daniel:9:23 @ At the beginning of thy supplications the word went forth, and I am come to tell it; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and have understanding of the appearance.

lesserot@Daniel:9:24 @ Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to close up the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to atone for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most holy thing.

lesserot@Daniel:9:25 @ Know therefore and comprehend, that from the going forth of the word to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the anointed the prince will be seven weeks: and during sixty and two weeks will it be again built with streets and ditches, even in the pressure of the times.

lesserot@Daniel:9:26 @ And after the sixty and two weeks will an anointed one be cut off without a successor to follow him: and the city and the sanctuary will the people of the prince that is coming destroy; but his end will come in a violent overthrow; but until the end of the war devastations are decreed.

lesserot@Daniel:9:27 @ And he will make a strong covenant with the many for one week; and in the half of the week will he cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and this because of the prevalence of the abominations which bringeth devastation, and until destruction and what is decreed shall be poured out upon the waster.

lesserot@Daniel:10:1 @ In the third year of Cyrus the king of Persia a word was revealed unto Daniel, whose name was called Belteshazzar; and the word is the truth, but the time appointed is long off: and he noted the word, and took notice of it in the appearance.

lesserot@Daniel:10:6 @ And his body was also like the chrysolite, and his face, like the appearance of lightning, and his eyes were like torches of fire, and his arms and his feet, like the color of polished copper, and the sound of his words was like the noise of a multitude.

lesserot@Daniel:10:7 @ And I Daniel saw alone this appearance; but the men that were with me did not see the appearance: nevertheless a great terror fell upon them, so that they fled to hide themselves.

lesserot@Daniel:10:8 @ And I was left by myself alone, and I saw this great appearance, and there remained no strength in me; and my healthy color was changed on me into corruption, and I retained no strength.

lesserot@Daniel:10:9 @ Then heard I the sound of his words; and as I heard the sound of his words, I sank in amazement on my face, with my face toward the ground.

lesserot@Daniel:10:10 @ And, behold, a hand touched me, and it moved me upon my knees and the palms of my hands.

lesserot@Daniel:10:11 @ And he said unto me, O Daniel, the man greatly beloved, mark well the words that I speak unto thee, and stand on thy standing–place; for now have I been sent unto thee. And when he had spoken this word unto me, I stood up trembling.

lesserot@Daniel:10:12 @ And he said unto me, Fear not, Daniel; for from the first day that thou didst set thy heart to obtain understanding, and to fast before thy God, were thy words heard: and I am come in consequence of thy words.

lesserot@Daniel:10:13 @ But the prince of the kingdom of Persia stood up against me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I obtained the victory there with the kings of Persia.

lesserot@Daniel:10:14 @ Now am I come to make thee understand what is to befall thy people, in the latter days; for the vision is yet for the days.

lesserot@Daniel:10:15 @ And when he spoke unto me such words, I directed my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.

lesserot@Daniel:10:16 @ And, behold, something like the form of the sons of men touched my lips; and I opened my mouth, and I spoke, and said unto him that stood opposite to me, O my lord, because of the appearance my pains suddenly overcame me, and I have retained no strength.

lesserot@Daniel:10:17 @ And how shall the servant of this my lord be able to speak with this my lord? And as for me, from that moment there remained no strength in me, and no breath was left in me.

lesserot@Daniel:10:18 @ Then there touched me again something like the appearance of a man, and he strengthened me;

lesserot@Daniel:10:19 @ And he said, Fear not, O man greatly beloved: peace be unto thee, be strong, yea, be strong. And when he spoke with me, I felt myself strengthened, and said, Let my lord speak; for thou hast strengthened me.

lesserot@Daniel:10:20 @ Then said he, Knowest thou wherefore I am come unto thee? and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia; and as I am going forth, lo, the prince of Javan is coming.

lesserot@Daniel:11:1 @ And I in the first year of Darius the Mede had my station to assist and to protect him.

lesserot@Daniel:11:3 @ And then will stand up a mighty king, who will rule with great dominion, and do according to his pleasure.

lesserot@Daniel:11:4 @ And when he shall have stood, his kingdom will be broken, and will be divided toward the four winds of the heavens, and not to his posterity, nor according to his dominion which he ruled; for his kingdom will be torn asunder even for others beside those.

lesserot@Daniel:11:6 @ But at the end of years will they associate themselves together; and the daughter of the king of the south will come to the king of the north to make a settlement of difficulties; but she will not retain the power of the support; neither will he stand, nor his support: but she will be given up with those that had brought her, and he that begat her, and he that strengthened her in those times.

lesserot@Daniel:11:7 @ But there will up a sprout of her roots in his place, and he will come to the army, and will enter into the stronghold of the king of the north, and will deal with them, and prevail:

lesserot@Daniel:11:8 @ And also their gods with their molten images, with their precious vessels of silver and of gold, will he carry into captivity to Egypt; and he will stand off some years from the king of the north.

lesserot@Daniel:11:9 @ But this one will then enter the kingdom of the king of the south, and then return into his own land.

lesserot@Daniel:11:10 @ But his sons will commence a war, and assemble a multitude of great armies; and one will certainly enter, and overflow, and pass along: then will he return, and make war again, even to his stronghold.

lesserot@Daniel:11:11 @ And the king of the south will be moved with bitter wrath, and go forth and fight with him, even with the king of the north: and he will set forth a great multitude; but the multitude will be given up into his hand.

lesserot@Daniel:11:14 @ And in those times many will stand up against the king of the south: also the rebellious sons of thy people will lift themselves up to establish the vision; but they will stumble.

lesserot@Daniel:11:15 @ And the king of the north will come, and cast up a mound, and capture the city defended by fortifications: and the arms of the south will not withstand, and as regardeth his chosen people, there will be no power to withstand.

lesserot@Daniel:11:16 @ But he that cometh against them will do according to his pleasure, and none will stand before him; and he will place himself in the glorious land, which will be altogether in his hand.

lesserot@Daniel:11:17 @ He will also direct his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, having professions of peace with him; and thus will he do it: and he will give him the daughter of his wife to destroy it: but it will not stand, and it will not remain his.

lesserot@Daniel:11:18 @ And he will direct his face unto the isles, and capture many; but a chieftain will cause to cease his reproach against him: without his giving back to him his own reproach.

lesserot@Daniel:11:19 @ Then will he direct his face toward the strong–holds of his own land; but he will stumble and fall, and will no more be found.

lesserot@Daniel:11:20 @ And there will stand up in his place one who will cause the exactor to pass through the glorious of the kingdom; but within a few days will he be broken, but not in anger, nor in battle.

lesserot@Daniel:11:21 @ And there will stand up in his place a despicable person, to whom they assigned not the honor of the kingdom; but he will come in quietly, and lay hold of the kingdom by flatteries.

lesserot@Daniel:11:23 @ And from the time of his associating with him will he deal deceitfully; and he will come up, and obtain the victory with a small number of people.

lesserot@Daniel:11:24 @ In quiet and into the fattest portion of the province will he enter; and he will do what his fathers have not done, nor his fathers’ fathers: the prey, and spoil, and riches will he divide freely to them, and against the strong–holds will he devise his plans, but only till a certain time.

lesserot@Daniel:11:28 @ Then will he return into his land with great riches, and his heart will be against the holy covenant: and he will do it, and return to his own land.

lesserot@Daniel:11:29 @ At the time appointed will he return, and enter into the south; but not as in the former will it be in the latter time.

lesserot@Daniel:11:33 @ And the intelligent among the people will impart understanding to many: yet they will stumble through the sword, and through flame, through captivity, and through being plundered for some time.

lesserot@Daniel:11:34 @ But in their stumbling will they be aided with a little help: but many will join themselves to them with deceptive flatteries.

lesserot@Daniel:11:35 @ And some of the intelligent will stumble, to make a purification among them, and to select and to cleanse them, until the time of the end; because it is yet for the time appointed.

lesserot@Daniel:11:36 @ And the king will do according to his pleasure; and he will exalt and magnify himself above every god, and against the God of gods will he speak incredible things, and he will prosper till the indignation be at an end; for that which is determined will be accomplished.

lesserot@Daniel:11:37 @ And to the gods of his fathers will he pay no regard; and to the desire of women, or to any god whatever will he not pay any regard; for above all will he magnify himself.

lesserot@Daniel:11:38 @ But in his place he will pay honor to the god of the fortresses; and to a god whom his fathers knew not will he pay honor with gold, and silver, and with precious stones, and costly things.

lesserot@Daniel:11:39 @ This will he do for the very strong fortresses together with the strange god: whoever will acknowledge him, him will he give much honor; and he will cause such to rule over many, and he will divide out the land for a price.

lesserot@Daniel:11:40 @ And at the time of the end will the king of the south push against him; and the king of the north will come against him like a storm–wind, with chariots, and with horsemen, and with many ships; and he will enter into some countries, and will overflow and press along.

lesserot@Daniel:11:41 @ And he will enter into the glorious land, and much will be overthrown; but these will escape out of his hand, even Edom, and Moab, and the first portion of the children of ‘Ammon.

lesserot@Daniel:11:44 @ But reports out of the east and out of the north will terrify him; and he will go forth with great fury to destroy, and to exterminate many.

lesserot@Daniel:11:45 @ And he will pitch the tents of his palace between seas and the glorious holy mountain; and he will come to his end, without one to help him.

lesserot@Daniel:12:2 @ And many of those that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to disgrace and everlasting abhorrence.

lesserot@Daniel:12:3 @ And the intelligent shall shine brilliantly like the brilliance of the expanse; and they that bring many to righteousness shall be like the stars, for ever and ever.

lesserot@Daniel:12:6 @ And one said to the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders?

lesserot@Daniel:12:7 @ Then heard I the man clothed in linen, who was above the waters of the stream; and he lifted up his right hand and his left hand unto the heavens, and swore by the Everliving One that after a time, times, and a half, and when there shall be an end to the crushing of the power of the holy people, all these things shall be ended.

lesserot@Daniel:12:8 @ And I heard indeed, but I understood it not: then said I, O my lord, what shall be the end of these things?

lesserot@Daniel:12:11 @ And from the time that the continual sacrifice will be removed, even to set up the desolating abomination, there will be a thousand two hundred and ninety days.

lesserot@Daniel:12:12 @ Happy is he that waiteth, and attaineth to the thousand three hundred and five and thirty days.

lesserot@Daniel:12:13 @ But thou, go toward the end; and thou shalt rest, and arise again for thy lot at the end of the days.

lesserot@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 Jerobo’am the son of Joash the king of Israel.
